Reduce Costs and Bill of Materials with Single Power Monitoring IC that Measures Power from 0V to 32V

Improve accuracy using industry’s first two-channel device with native 16-bit resolution
July 23, 2018

CHANDLER, Ariz., July 19, 2018 — Managing and reducing power consumption is crucial in low-voltage, high-power applications such as Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) and embedded computing devices. These devices must first accurately measure power before they can manage it, but precision power measurement solutions are often costly and require multiple ICs or power configurations to measure different rails. To meet these needs, Microchip Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: MCHP) today introduced new two- and three-channel power monitoring devices that measure from 0V to 32V on a single chip, offering designers solutions that are easy to adopt and improve … Read More → "Reduce Costs and Bill of Materials with Single Power Monitoring IC that Measures Power from 0V to 32V"
