before the REF signal then an ERROR FAST is produced and if
the TACH signal goes low after the REF signal then an ERROR
SLOW is produced. The error signal generated enables the ap-
propriate current source (see diagram next page) to either charge

(D3 & D4) provides output current limit protection. This feature
is particularly useful where high transient currents are experi-
enced, e.g., during start-up. Once normal running conditions are
reached, the current limit can be appropriately reduced. Note that
the current limit is scaled according to the g

than the internally generated once-around scheme. The external
signal is applied to the SECTOR DATA terminal and the serial
port bit (D19 = 1) must be programmed to enable this feature.
