Analog DevicesEVAL-ADM1178EBZCartes et kits de développement de gestion de la puissance

This evaluation board allows the ADM1178 devices to be easily evaluated. These parts combine a hot swap controller and an on-board 12-bit ADC-based digital power monitor that reports the power being drawn. The hot swap control circuitry allows the boards to be safely inserted and removed from a live 3.15 V to 16.5 V backplane. The parts provide precise, robust, current-limiting protection against transient and nontransient short circuits and undervoltage and overcurrent conditions. In addition to the standard hot swap functionality, the on-board power monitoring circuitry allows for precise monitoring of the power profile of each individual line card within a designated rack system. Communication to the power monitor is via an on-board I2C® port.
