Hi team,

Can the current shunt(RS)  be removed?

    Hi Jimmy,

    The current shunt has two purposes.

    1. It sets the current limit for the IC
    2. The current shunt value is part of the calculation that determines the stability of the loop

    So to answer your question, the IC requires some kind of resistive sensing to satisfy the two items that I have mentioned above.
