Making measurements on the LOG114EVM is fast and easy. Connect a digital voltmeter or oscilloscope to
the terminal of interest and record the results. Included with the graph of measured results is a table of
results for common values of input currents. In Figure 13, two curves are shown. Both curves use a
resistor input and V
OUT
is recorded as a function of input current. The compensated (red) curve connects
the resistor as shown in Figure 11 and uses the high-current linearity correction circuitry. The
uncompensated curve (blue) uses the resistor connected to I
1
and V
REF
as shown in Figure 10.
