ACS722 Hall sensor IC...minimum loading for output signal voltage pin?

[treez]

Hello... On pg 6 of the ACS722 Hall sensor IC datasheet it says minimal loading for VIOUT pin is 4k7. Does this mean we need to load it with at least 4k7?
(sorry I did search this subject topic in the forum but couldn’t find it)

Hi,

minimum load resistance means maximum load current.

--> use a load resistance >= 4k7

You have asked the same question before, and it has been answered. https://www.edaboard.com/showthread...itor-problem&p=1674196&viewfull=1#post1674196

I think the datasheet is absolutely clear about this point. You must not overload the output, but it doesn't need a load.
