This is a question I really should know the answer to, but I'm not sure, so thought it is best ask
I am using a Microchip fan controller IC in a circuit I'm working on and I am not 100% sure on the power rating for the resistor Rsense. The fan motor is 12V 0.1A so 1.2W. The voltage drop across the resistor is 900mV so I think a 1W resistor is more than adequate, but I'm not 100% sure I am correct and if I should add the 1.2W from the fan and use a 2W resistor instead.
Thanks
