4.4.4 Load Resistor, Maximum Operating Temperature
The sensors are connected according to the pin assignment shown, see Fig. 18 et seq. (all series). Notice the
different criterias:
- R
L max
= (U
B
- 10 V) / 20 mA
- R
L min
= 82.5 * 1/V * U
B
- 1625 Ohm
- T
max
= 150 °C - 3.3 °C/V * U
B
+ 0.04 °C/W * R
L
The maximum load resistor R
L
is limited by the operating voltage U
B
.

A small load resistor loads the sensor electronics more thermical. With a maximum operating temperature of
85 °C (+185 °F) the minimum load resistor R
L
permitted is calculated as:
R = - 1625 Ohm
L min
82.5 * U
