LTC2975
4-Channel PMBus Power
System Manager Featuring Accurate
Input Current and Energy Measurement
DESCRIPTION
The
LTC
®
2975
is a 4-channel Power System Manager used
to sequence, trim (servo), margin, supervise, manage faults,
provide telemetry and create fault logs. PMBus commands
support power supply sequencing, precision point-of-load
voltage adjustment and margining. DACs use a proprietary
soft-connect algorithm to minimize supply disturbances.
Supervisory functions include over and under current,
voltage and temperature threshold limits for four power
supply output channels as well as over and under voltage
threshold limits for a single power supply input channel.
Programmable fault responses can disable the power sup-
plies with optional retry after a fault is detected. Faults that
disable a power supply can automatically trigger black box
EEPROM storage of fault status and associated telemetry.
An internal 16-bit ADC monitors four output voltages, four
output currents, four external temperatures, input voltage
and current, and die temperature. Input power, energy,
and output power is also calculated. A programmable
watchdog timer monitors microprocessor activity for a
stalled condition and resets the microprocessor if neces-
sary. A single wire bus synchronizes power supplies across
multiple LTC Power System Management (PSM) devices.
Configuration EEPROM with ECC supports autonomous
operation without additional software.
