Vref = 1.25 * (1 + R2 / R1)

Low-end of the internal resistor divider. Usually tied to ground. Pin 5 (SIG): Analog input signal to be measured.

<script> // Formula: Iled = 12.5 / R1 function calcCurrent() let r = parseFloat(document.getElementById('resistorValue').value); if (!isNaN(r) && r > 0) let current = (12.5 / r) * 1000; // Convert to mA document.getElementById('currentResult').innerHTML = current.toFixed(2); else document.getElementById('currentResult').innerHTML = "Enter a valid resistor value (Ω)";

To customize your display, you need to calculate two primary values: the Reference Voltage ( cap V sub cap R cap E cap F end-sub LED Current ( cap I sub cap L cap E cap D end-sub 1. Setting LED Current ( cap I sub cap L cap E cap D end-sub

The resistors involved are usually labeled in datasheets as (between Ref Out and Ref Adj) and R2 (between Ref Adj and Ground).

ILED≈10×(1.25VR1)+120μAR2cap I sub LED end-sub is approximately equal to 10 cross open paren the fraction with numerator 1.25 V and denominator cap R sub 1 end-fraction close paren plus the fraction with numerator 120 mu A and denominator cap R sub 2 end-fraction Because the

VREF_HI=1.25V×(1+R2R1)+(120μA×R2)cap V sub REF_HI end-sub equals 1.25 V cross open paren 1 plus the fraction with numerator cap R sub 2 and denominator cap R sub 1 end-fraction close paren plus open paren 120 mu A cross cap R sub 2 close paren 3. Calculating R2cap R sub 2 If you know your desired full-scale voltage ( VREF_HIcap V sub REF_HI end-sub ) and have calculated R1cap R sub 1

Warning the designer if the chosen ILEDcap I sub LED end-sub and supply voltage will overheat the IC. Step-by-Step Calculation Example

You'd spend 10 minutes with a calculator and the datasheet, often realizing halfway through that you don't own the specific 1.24kΩ resistor the math suggests.
