RTQ6056
High-Side or Low-Side Measurement, Bi-Directional Current
and Power Monitor with 16 Bit ADC and Alert
Features
⚫ I C and SMBus Compatible Interface
General Description
The RTQ6056 is a high accuracy current-sense monitor
2
⚫ Bi-Direction Current Sensing, Available for High-
Side or Low-Side Sensing
2
with an I C and SMBus interface, and the device
provides full information for system by reading out the
load current and power.
⚫ 2.7V to 5.5V Operation Supply Voltage Range
⚫ Monitor Bus Voltage from 0V to 36V
⚫ High Accuracy, Max 0.12% Gain Error
⚫ Low Offset Voltage, Max 10μV Offset
⚫ Current, Bus Voltage and System Power
Reporting
The device monitors both of the drops across sense
resistor and the BUS voltage, converts into the current
in amperes, and power in watts through internal analog-
to-digital converter ADC. The programmable calibration,
adjustable conversion time, and averaging function are
also built in for more design flexibility.
⚫ Programmable Warning Threshold
⚫ Over-Current, Over-Voltage and Over-Power Alert
⚫ MSOP-10 Package
The RTQ6056 provides
a
wide temperature
environment from −40C to 125C and operates with an
input voltage from 2.7V to 5.5V. The device senses the
current on common-mode bus voltage with 0V to 36V.
Applications
⚫ Servers, Storage and Network Equipment
⚫ Portable, Battery-Powered Systems
⚫ Point of Load (POL) Power Modules
⚫ Notebook Computers
The RTQ6056 also provides an alert function with open-
drain output, and it provides the full protection by giving
a warning to host in over-current, over-voltage and over-
power situations.
⚫ High End Digital TV
The RTQ6056 is available in a small MSOP-10 package.
