Accuracy of Current Measurement Circuit
The measuring range of the current measurement circuit in DA14531 PRO-MB is 1
μΑ to 240 mA.
The circuit accuracy is measured by applying a constant current, monitoring the output with the
SmartSnippets Toolbox, and compare the outcome.
In general, the inaccuracy presented in the current measurement circuit is less than 5% (practically
less than 2%) in most of the current range. There are two areas where the inaccuracy is of the order
of 10%, that is, from 1
μA to 10 μA and from 100 μΑ to 300 μΑ (
.
