•HowmanyPGMscanbeconnected?
Acurrentof8.9mAormoremustflowtoasinglePGM.Onthe
otherhand,themaximumcurrentofthecontrolleris22.0mA.
Accordingly,twoPGMscanbeconnectedinparallel.
Inthecaseofaseriesconnection,duetothemaximumoutput
current(22.0mA)andallowableloadresistance(600Ω),the
maximumvoltagethatcanbeappliedtoaloadbecomes13.2V
(22.0mA × 600Ω).
Whenacurrentof8.9mAflowstoaPGM,themaximumvoltage
atbothofitsinputterminalsbecomes3.7V.
0.0089 × 260 × 1.05 + 1.3 = 3.7V
Accordingly,13.2÷3.7=3.56,whichmeansthatthreePGMscan
beconnectedinseries.
