LTC2978 Octal Digital Power Supply Manager with EEPROM FEATURES DESCRIPTION 2 n I C/SMBus Serial Interface The LTC 2978 is an octal, digital power-supply monitor, n PMBus Compliant Command Set supervisor, sequencer, and margin controller. Eight output n Configuration EEPROM with CRC channels can be managed per user defined configura - n Black Box Fault Logging to Internal EEPROM tion settings. Supervisory functions include fault OV/UV n Differential Input, 16-Bit ADC with Less Than threshold limits for eight output channels and one input 0.25% of Total Unadjusted Error channel. Programmable fault dependencies and responses n Eight Voltage Servos Precisely Adjust Output allow the power supplies to be disabled with optional retry Voltages Using Eight 10-Bit DACs with Soft-Connect after a fault has been detected. Serial bus telemetry allows n Monitors Eight Output Voltages and One Input eight output voltages, one input voltage, die temperature Voltage and Internal Die Temperature and fault status to be monitored. In addition, odd num- n 8-Channel Sequencer bered channels can be configured to measure the voltage n Programmable Watchdog Timer across a current sense resistor. Power supply sequencing, n Eight UV/OV V and One V Supervisor precision point-of-load voltage adjustment and margining OUT IN n Supports Multi-Channel Fault Management are supported with PMBus commands. A programmable n Operates Autonomously without Additional Software watchdog timer monitors microprocessor activity for a n LTC2978 Can Be Powered from 3.3V or 4.5V to 15V stalled condition and resets the microprocessor if neces- n Available in 64-pin 9mm 9mm QFN package sary. The 1-wire synchronization bus supports power supply sequencing across multiple LTC digital power devices. User programmable parameters can be stored APPLICATIONS in EEPROM. Faults and telemetry data can be logged to n Computers EEPROM for diagnostic analysis. n Network Servers n L, LT, LTC, LTM, PolyPhase, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks Industrial Test and Measurement and LTpowerPlay ia a trademark of Linear Technology Corporation.
