A. Peak current (IS) is determined by the formula: IS(max) = 1 V/RS
B. A small RC filter formed by resistor Rf and capacitor Cf may be required to suppress switch transients.
Figure 2. Current-Sense Circuit
The oscillator frequency is set using the circuit shown in Figure 3. The frequency is calculated as:
f = 1 / RTCT
For RT > 5 kΩ:
f ≈ 1.72 / RTCT
