R
SET
The range of the I
REF
DAC that controls the current sources I
1
and I
2
is set by the external resistor R
SET
.
For example, with a value of R
SET
= 12.1 k
Ω
, the range of I
REF
is 480 µA to 510 µA. If R
SET
= 121 k
Ω
, the
range of I
REF
becomes 48 µA to 51 µA. The
Find Resistors
tab within the XTR108EVM-USB software
helps to determine the appropriate R
SET
value.

R
LIN
All RTDs have a nonlinear response over temperature. Typically, this nonlinearity can be approximated as
a second-order function, and therefore can be calibrated out by modulating the excitation current with the
RTD input signal. The range of this linearity correction is set by external resistor, R
LIN
.
