The absolute maximum input voltage for the VMON input pins is 6V. Any inadvertent stresses beyond this limit will damage the device. Thus, protection circuits (like using a 5.1V shunt Zener diode) are recommended to guard the VMON input pins against ...
Description: This article describes adding Real Time Clock (RTC) with a Fault Logger for ECP5 using Platform Manager 2. Solution: The Full-Featured Fault Logger Configuration for ECP5 has several additional features for Timestamp. One of these is the ...
Yes you can short the two VMON inputs of the Power Manager Device externally to monitor a supply rail. However effective Input Resistance (Rin) of the comparators should be considered thoroughly before connecting it to the supply rail. By shorting ...
The VMON inputs need to be protected according to the voltage limits mentioned in the datasheet (<5.9V). This information is contained in the Recommended Operating Conditions table (Page 5 of the POWR1014/A datasheet) ...
We have several reference designs for Power Manager devices that show how to detect a power supply fault (over voltage or under voltage) and save the data in a SPI memory. Using a current to voltage circuit the fault could also be an over current. ...
