Power You Can Trust

This video explores the techniques used to create reliable power systems that we can trust. We discuss four key methods:
PowerPath Controllers: These controllers select between incoming power sources, ensuring that our power system remains reliable by switching between multiple power sources, including backup batteries. Analog Devices' PowerPath Controllers excel in monitoring and controlling current.

Digital Power System Management (DPSM): DPSM is crucial for reliable power by monitoring and adjusting voltages and currents. With ADI’s DPSM, you can remotely manage adjustments, reset thresholds and sequencing, and check margins without the need for manual intervention on the factory floor.

Temperature Sensors: Temperature is a key indicator in a power system. ADI’s small, low-current temperature sensors communicate via I2C, making them ideal for monitoring temperature across multiple locations.

Supercapacitor Regulators: To prevent abrupt power system shutdowns, supercapacitor regulators maintain system operation long enough for a microprocessor to do cleanup, save data, and orderly shutdowns. These regulators charge the supercapacitor and provide a boost function to maintain constant output voltage.

This demo highlights the LTC4421 PowerPath controller, LTC2977 DPSM chip, MAX31827 temperature sensor, and MAX38890 supercapacitor regulator, showcasing Analog Devices' diverse options in each category.
