GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A precision internal 2.0VDC reference is provided if an external reference is not available. See Figure 1. The comparator outputs of two (2) PCS5035 can be wired or’ed to provide 10 sensors inputs. Current source output/comparator inputs of two or more units can be tied together to provide more sensor current. A logic "high" of 3.4VDC maximum on the enable pin turns on the current source/comparators.
