Appendix C. 4 to 20 mA Operation
The load resistance connected to the CS470/CS471 must not exceed a specific
maximum value. This value depends on the level of the supply voltage of the
CS470/CS471. If the load resistance is greater, the output current can no
longer be evaluated. Smaller load resistances are allowed.
• Read off the maximum load resistance for your power supply from
FIGURE C-1.
Example: Power supply 18 volt max. load resistance 450 Ohm.
The CS470/CS471 delivers an output current corresponding to the measured
value for a load resistance of up to 450 Ohm.
• Dimension the connected electrical circuit accordingly. Check the input
resistance of the connected peripheral.

function of the power supply.
