Thermal fuse hold current. Overload causes voltage drop.
Disconnect and let cool to reset. Operate at limit if the application
can tolerate some fluctuation.
10.4.3 5V and 3.3V
5V: One regulated 5V output. Supply is shared between the 5V terminal and CS I/O DB9 5 V
output.
l Voltage Output: Regulated 5 V output (±5%)
l Current Limit: 230 mA
VX: Four independently configurable voltage terminals (VX1-VX4). When providing voltage
excitation, a single 16-bit DAC shared by all VX outputs produces a user-specified voltage during
measurement only. In this case, these terminals are regularly used with resistive-bridge
measurements (see Resistance measurements (p. 63) for more information). VX terminals can also
be used to supply a selectable, switched, regulated 3.3 or 5 Vdc power source to power digital
sensors and toggle control lines.

Note that ratiometric accuracy, rather than the absolute accuracy of excitation or analogue measurement,
determines the accuracy of ratiometric resistance measurements.

Exceeding current limits causes voltage output to become unstable. Voltage should stabilize when current is
reduced to within stated limits.
