Validating the System
The example systems shown in the tables below are verified to be acceptable
configurations. The systems are valid because:
• Calculated Current Values < Maximum Allowable Current Values
• Calculated System Loading < Maximum Allowable System Loading
System Loading Worksheet
The tables below are provided for system loading validation. See System Loading
Example Calculations on page 368.

Maximum Allowable Values Calculated Values
Current: Current (Subtotal from Table on page 368.):
1225 mA @ 5V DC 1155 mA @ 24V DC 0 mA + 260 mA = 260 mA @ 5V DC 0 mA + 180 mA = 180 mA @ 24V DC

= (260 mA x 5V) + (180 mA x 24V)
= (1,300 mW) + (4,320 mW)
= 5,620 mW
= 5.62 W
