DESCRIPTION
The UCD90124A is a 12-rail PMBus/I2C addressable
power-supply sequencer and monitor. The device
integrates a 12-bit ADC for monitoring up to 12
power-supply voltage inputs. Twenty-six GPIO pins
can be used for power supply enables, power-on
reset signals, external interrupts, cascading, or other
system functions. Twelve of these pins offer PWM
functionality. Using these pins, the UCD90124A offers
support for fan control, margining, and
general-purpose PWM functions.
Specific power states can be achieved using the
Pin-Selected Rail States feature. This feature allows
with the use of up to 3 GPIs to enable and disable
any rail. This is useful for implementing system
low-power modes and the Advanced Configuration
and Power Interface (ACPI) specification that is used
for hardware devices.
The TI Fusion Digital Power™ designer software is
provided for device configuration. This PC-based
graphical user interface (GUI) offers an intuitive
interface for configuring, storing, and monitoring all
system operating parameters.
