Introduction
This user's manual provides detailed information
regarding the configuration
NCP45491PMNGEVB evaluation board. The evaluation
board serves as a demonstration of NCP45491 general
functionality for dual mode chip mode featuring power
monitoring of 6 channels. The evaluation board also
provides a means of quick prototyping for specific
applications.

Quick Start
Recommended Equipment
Before beginning, the following equipment is needed:
•
4 DC Power Supplies (3.3 V VCC Supply, 12 V Bus
Voltage, 6 V Bus Supply, 8 V Bus Supply)
•
6 DC loads (Up to at Least 2 A)
•
1 Function Generator
•
1 Oscilloscope
•
1 Digital Multi-meter
•
SMA to BNC Cables Recommended for Connection to
DIFF_OUTN, DIFF_OUTP, and MUX_SEL
NOTE: Bus voltage supplies need to be capable of
sourcing load currents times 2 since each supply
sources 2 loads on the default setup.
Board Setup
The assembled evaluation board targets Bus Voltages and
Shunt Currents shown in Tables 1 and 2. VBUS1 ties to both
channel 1 and channel 2 bus voltage inputs. VBUS2 ties to
both channel 3 and channel 4 bus voltage inputs. VBUS3 ties
to both channel 5 and channel 6 bus voltage inputs. Refer to
the schematic and layout diagrams found in
Appendix B respectively as needed.

The specific resistor configuration populated on the board
facilitates these gain settings. The nominal differential
amplifier gain is 2 V/V. Therefore, the expected differential
output for any channels voltage or current can be calculated
as follows:
•
For Bus Voltage:
Diff Output = Bus Voltage × Channel Bus Divider × 2
•
For Load Current:
Diff Output = Load Current × Channel Shunt Gain × 2
The output for each channel is calculated as follows:
Diff Output + Bus Voltage
The channel shunt current gain is calculated as follows:
Diff Output + I
