Calculations/File IO Tab

The Calculations/File IO tab, shown in Figure 4-15, displays register data (in decimal

by default). It also shows calculated results which were obtained by applying the data

sheet equations to the register data.

FIGURE 4-15:

Calculations/File IO Tab.

An example of using the equations to calculate power is as follows.

The value of one LSB in the VPOWER Result registers, in watts, can be calculated

according to Equation 4-1.
