1. No false open-load indication when load is connected: in this case we have to avoid
V
OUT
to be higher than V
Olmin
; this results in the following condition:
V

2. No misdetection when the load is disconnected: in this case the V
OUT
has to be higher
than V
OLmax
; this results in the following condition:
R
PU
<(V

)/I
L(off2)
.
Because I
s(OFF)
may significantly increase if V
out
is pulled high (up to several mA), the pull-
up resistor R
PU
should be connected to a supply that is switched OFF when the module is in
standby.
The values of V
OLmin
, V
OLmax
and I
L(off2)
are available in the Electrical characteristics
section.
