FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Full functions support evaluation kit for the ADM1191/
ADM1192
Input voltage range: 3.15 V to 26 V
Toggle and push-button switches for easy input control
LED indicated status outputs
Supports cascade setup for multiple boards
Toggle switch for easy input control
The EVAL-ADM1191EBZ/EVAL-ADM1192EBZ is a compact,
full feature evaluation board for the ADM1191 and ADM1192
devices. The ADM1191/ADM1192 are integrated current sense
amplifiers that offer digital current and voltage monitoring via
an on-chip analog-to-digital converter (ADC) communicated
through an I2C interface. An internal current sense amplifier
senses voltage across the sense resistor in the power path via the
VCC and SENSE pins.
EVALUATION KIT CONTENTS
The ADC can measure the current seen in the sense resistor
and the supply voltage on the VCC pin. An industry-standard
I2C interface allows a controller to read current and voltage data
from the ADC. Measurements can be initiated by an I2C command.
Alternatively, the ADC can run continuously, and the latest
conversion can be read whenever it is required.

The devices have a SETV pin. A voltage applied to this pin is
internally compared to the output voltage on the current sense
amplifier. The output of the SETV comparator asserts when the
current sense amplifier output exceeds the SETV voltage.
REQUIRED SOFTWARE
Analog Devices hot swap and power monitoring evaluation
software (download from www.analog.com/hotswaptools)
When this event occurs for the ADM1191, the ALERTB output
asserts; when the event occurs for the ADM1192, the ALERT
output asserts. This alert signal can be used as a flag to warn a
microcontroller or field-programmable gate array (FPGA) of an
overcurrent condition. The alert output of multiple devices can
be tied together and used as a combined alert.

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
EVALUATION BOARD DESCRIPTION
HARDWARE COMPONENTS
Main Evaluation Board
The evaluation board contains all of the circuitry necessary to
simulate power monitoring events, such as a control FET, a
sense resistor, and timing components. VR1 adjusts a variable
load; turning VR1 clockwise reduces the load resistance,
thereby increasing the load current to a maximum of 550 mA.
The load circuit is useful when evaluating the performance of the
device under varying load conditions.
USB-I2C5W-ADPTZ Adapter Board
The USB-SDP-CABLEZ uses a 10-pin Micro-MaTch male
connector as its interface connector. The evaluation board is
supplied with the USB-I2C5W-ADPTZ adapter board to
convert the 10-pin Micro-MaTch connector to a 5-pin, 0.1"
header connector. For more information on how to use the
adapter board, refer to the USB-SDP-CABLEZ user guide.
Figure 2. USB-I2C5W-ADPTZ Adapter Board
5-Pin Interconnection Cable
The interconnection cable is used for multiple evaluation board
parallel connection setup. Two or more boards can be connected in
parallel through the J1 and J5 connectors using the 5-pin
interconnection cable. Each device should be assigned to a
different address using an address pin. The maximum number
of devices that can be interconnected is four for the ADM1192
and 16 for the ADM1191.
Device Samples
Some loose samples of the device to be evaluated are included
in a samples box. A single device should be placed in the socket
before powering up the evaluation board. The device should be
oriented in the socket so that Pin 1 is in the top left corner, near
C6, as shown in Figure 3

Note that when changing devices, the software should first be
shut down and the power supply to the board removed. J7 is an
I2C connector that connects the evaluation board to a PC via a
USB-I2C5W-ADPTZ adapter board and a USB-SDP-CABLEZ.
06486-104
The ADM1191/ADM1192 digital power monitor evaluation
board can be controlled using the configuration tool, allowing
the device to be actively simulated through software. This
evaluation board provides an I2C interface requiring a bench
power supply of between 3.15 V and 26 V connected through
the J2 and J4 connectors. The latest version of the configuration
tool can be downloaded from the Analog Devices, Inc., website
www.analog.com/hotswaptools.

EVALUATION SOFTWARE—MAIN PANEL TAB
The Main Panel tab of the evaluation software is shown in
Figure 19. It is divided into 10 control areas that you can use to
test and evaluate the ADM1191/ADM1192 devices.
Alert Register controls consist of four buttons you can use to
enable or disable the various alerts generated by the device
being evaluated.
The four alert types are
•
ADC OC1 (analog-to-digital converter overcurrent
Alert 1): When you enable this alert, a message box appears
prompting you to enter the current limit that triggers the
alert. When you set the sense resistor to the default value
0.2 Ω, the range is 0 to 0.529 A. If a lower value sense
resistor is used, the range increases; similarly, if a higher
value is used, the range is reduced.
06486-017
Press Enter after entering the value to set it. The ADC
overcurrent alert is then triggered when a current greater
than the specified level is detected by a single ADC sample.

Figure 20. Register Control Panel
Command Register controls allow you to manage the way in
which the device reads the data. There are five toggle buttons
with which to select the data reading method and voltage range.
The voltage range is set at 14:1 by default (7:2 if the Range
button is selected). You have the option of reading the current
and voltage just once or continuously. Once you have selected
the range and reading method, click Write Data to Command
Register to pass the change to the register of the device.
Note that Read Current Once and Continuous Current Read
cannot be selected simultaneously; the same rule applies to the
voltage read buttons.
•
By default, the overcurrent alert is enabled when ADC OC1,
ADC OC4, and OFF ALERT are disabled. An enabled alert is
highlighted in yellow; a disabled alert is gray in color. To enable
or disable an alert, simply select the corresponding button in
the Alert Register.
06486-019
ALERT REGISTER CONTROLS
•
ADC OC4 (analog-to-digital converter overcurrent
Alert 4): The ADC OC4 alert is similar to the ADC OC1
alert except that it triggers only if a current greater than the
specified level is detected for four consecutive ADC samples.
This prevents a single transient event from triggering an
ADC overcurrent condition.
Over current Alert: This alert is enabled when an overcurrent condition is present.
OFF ALERT: This alert enables the Software Off Alert.

The sampling rate is set using one of the four options in the
Readback update rate box. In Figure 31, the data logger logs
100 samples, with 100 ms between each sample.
•
Press to Stop Converting allows you to stop a continuous
conversion.
Convert Once carries out a single conversion by issuing a
single pulse to the CONV pin. The result of the conversion
appears in the trace data display area at the top right of the
Main Panel tab.
Continuously Converting begins a continuous conversion
by pulling the CONV pin high. The results of the continuous
conversion are displayed in the trace data display area.
Pulse Convert line controls pulse frequency, as shown in
Figure 33. You can choose from one of four pulse frequencies:
100 ms, 200 ms, 500 ms, and 1000 ms.
Figure 31. Data Logging
After the data begins logging, the total number of samples
logged is displayed at the bottom of the Data Logger area. This
number increases with the sampling rate. The log progress is
complete when it reaches the log limit value. Alternatively, you
can click Stop data log to file to terminate the process. After
the data is imported to the Excel file you specify, the data can be
easily evaluated.
06486-031
After you set up the data logger, click Log data to file. A file
browser box appears so that you can specify a file name and
location for storing the data. In the box, click Log to start
logging data to the file. The data is sampled at the chosen rate
and logged to the selected Excel file.
Figure 33. Pulse Frequency Selection
Note that if you set the pulse frequency for the ADM1191, you
will not be able to change the readback update rate.

COMMUNICATION STATUS INDICATOR
The leftmost indicator reports normal communication. The
middle indicator spins to report a write data to register. The
third indicator reports that communication between the device
and the user interface has been lost. The software should be
restarted to reestablish communication with the device.
06486-032
At the lower right corner of the Main Panel tab, there is a
communication status indicator that reports the status of the

On the V, I & P graphs tab, you can monitor data collected
through the evaluation board using the software generated
graphs. On the tab, there are three sets of controls and graphs
corresponding to voltage, current, and power. Voltage and
current graphs are displayed using actual voltage and current
data from the device. The values for the power graph are
calculated using P = V.I.

The digitized values for voltage, current, and power are displayed at
the left in each set of controls and graphs.
Figure 41 shows that the supply voltage is constant but that the
current is changing as a result of varying the load resistance by
turning Switch VR1. Turning VR1 clockwise reduces the load
resistance, thereby increasing the current; turning VR1
counterclockwise has the opposite effect. Again, notice the
variation in the power graph as the current graph changes.

EVALUATING MULTIPLE DEVICES IN PARALLEL
For the ADM1191, up to 16 unique I2C addresses can be created,
allowing you to interconnect up to 16 devices. For the ADM1192,
up to four I2C addresses can be created, allowing you to interconnect up to four ADM1192 devices.
Each evaluation board is fitted with switches labeled A0 and A1.
A0 is used on an ADM1192 device to assign an address, via the
ADR pin, to that particular device. For the ADM1191, both A0
and A1 are used to assign up to 16 I2C addresses. You must
ensure that each device has a unique I2C address.
The first evaluation board should be connected to the PC
parallel port using a USB-SDP-CABLEZ and the USB-I2C5WADPTZ adapter board from the 5-pin header labeled J7. Each
board is fitted with two Minimolex connectors, J1 and J5. To
interconnect multiple boards, use the red 5-pin Minimolex
cables provided.
06486-041
When interconnecting ADM1191/ADM1192 devices, you should
power each device using a bench supply of between 3.15 V and
26 V, connected to J2 (VIN) and J4 (GND).

As shown in Figure 47, the supply voltage is constant and the
current associated with traces is varied. The current is changed
by changing the load resistance. Turning VR1 clockwise on each
evaluation board reduces the load resistance, thereby increasing
the current, and turning VR1 counterclockwise increases the
load resistance and, thus, reduces the current.

INTERCONNECTING A COMBINATION OF
ADM1191 AND ADM1192 DEVICES
ALERT/ALERTB output is not supported by the evaluation tool
when a combination of ADM1191 and ADM1192 devices is
interconnected. This is because the ADM1191 and ADM1192
have alert outputs with opposing polarity (ALERTB and
ALERT), and these output flags cannot be supported as a single
logic signal via J7 through J5 to the PC.
UG-658
Note that the Overcurrent Output Flag appears when
ADM1178 and ADM1191 devices are interconnected. The
reason is that both devices have the ALERTB type output.
Therefore, when interconnecting a combination of ADM1191
and ADM1192 devices, it is recommended that you use the
LEDs on the evaluation board that correspond to ALERT (D1)
and ALERTB (D5) to give a hardware alert. When an overcurrent condition is detected, the corresponding LED lights up.
To configure the evaluation board to give a hardware alert for
ALERT/ALERTB, position the jumpers as shown in Table 6.

Note that, if an overcurrent condition occurs for the ADM1192,
you can press the on-board CLRB button to clear the alert after
the overcurrent condition is eliminated. This does not apply to
the ADM1191.
