If a set of voltage divider resistors is installed, calculate the +real voltage by multiplying the reported value with (R1+R2)/R2, where R1 is the +value of the divider resistor against the measured voltage and R2 is the value +of the divider resistor against Ground. + +Current reading provided by this driver is reported as obtained from the ADC +Current Sense register.

If a different sense resistor is installed, calculate the real +current by dividing the reported value by the sense resistor value in mOhm. + +======================= ======================================================== +in1_input VIN voltage (mV).
