Footnotes:
1. Performance values are typical. Performance specifications established with a supply voltage of
3.0 V, a bias resistor of 121 Ω, an external timing resistor of 33 kΩ, and with measurements taken
at room temperature. Other bias resistors, external timing resistors and operating voltages may
be used, but performance will differ from the values listed. Contact PNI for additional information.
2. The cycle count setting (eg. 50 ,100, and 200) is user-configurable and set in the Cycle Count
Registers. See Section 4.1 for a discussion on how the RM3100 works, and Section 5.1 for how
to set the Cycle Count Registers.
3. Field measurement range is defined as the monotonic region of the output characteristic curve.
Field measurement range can be extended using different bias resistors.
