Hi, I can't see any reverse polarity protection in this design. Isn't it a common practice to use a diode in VBUS pin? Kindly review this matter. https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/710311/is-a-diode-really-necessary-when-exposing-usb-vbus-as-a-pin-on-a-dev-board https://www.pcbway.com/blog/25/ESD_Protection_and_Reverse_polarity_protection.html
Hi Robin,
Typically we recommend tying IN+ and IN- together and to GND when they are not being used. At the moment, you have a 36V differential between IN+ and IN- which is problematic and could break the device.
Best,
Mohamed
Dear Mohamed
Please check the parts that need to be corrected.
- VBUS pin monitoring power supply (36V, 27V, 5.0V, 3.3V)
- IN+ GND connection (PIN_#1,2,3)
Please explain in detail what needs to be changed in the circuit.
Additional inquiries
If the 3.3V GND driving the IC and the GND of the monitoring power are different, should the IC GND be used as the monitoring GND? Or should I use GND driving the IC?
ex) IC supply power GND: GND
IC monitoring power GND: GND-ISO
At this time, what kind of GND of the IC do you use?
GND??? GND-ISO???
Additional inquiries
Robin Is it possible to use 3.3V IC power in the circuit provided and connect 5V or 3.3V power monitoring power supply to VBUS and IN+ Pin_#1,2,3?
Conditions for not using 27V, 36V.
Please respond to two inquiries.
The circuit is urgently needed. ARTWORK progress is being delayed due to the circuit being slow.
We ask for your understanding and please confirm quickly.
HI Sang,
- VBUS pin monitoring power supply (36V, 27V, 5.0V, 3.3V)
- IN+ GND connection (PIN_#1,2,3)
You would need to tie IN+ and IN- together, and to GND if they are not being used. The GND could be the same system GND that you are using to power the IC.
Robin Is it possible to use 3.3V IC power in the circuit provided and connect 5V or 3.3V power monitoring power supply to VBUS and IN+ Pin_#1,2,3?

I'm not sure I understand this question, Do you mind clarifying please?

Dear Mohamed
The attached circuit diagram is a circuit for monitoring 5V and 3.3V power.
In the same circuit, the power monitoring power is 5V and 3.3V, and each SLAVE ADDRESS is assigned.
What you requested: IN+ PIN_#1,2,3 / IN- PIN_#14,15,16 GND connected. (PIN VBUS Monitoring Power Connection)
Please confirm whether the 5V, 3.3V circuit diagram provided can be used to fix it.
If there is anything that needs to be corrected, please provide details on which part needs to be corrected and how.
Thank you for your cooperation.

HI Sang,
Everything seems fine with the ties to GND for IN+ and IN-, however we usually tie them together as well although it seems its the same thing. I'm not sure why you have capacitors on the A0 as well as the I2C and ALERT pin. We don't typically attach bypass capacitors there.
Best,
Mohamed
Dear Mohamed
In the circuit diagram provided
A0: MLCC
ALERT: MLCC
I will delete it.
Please confirm again.
Requested information: IN+ PIN_#1,2,3 / IN- PIN_#14,15,16 GND is connected. (PIN VBUS monitoring power connection)
We will proceed under these conditions.
There’s nothing wrong, right?
Dear Mohamed
Additional inquiries
Monitoring power 5V VBUS connection GND-ISO External GND used
IC power internal GND used
Is the GND setting correct?
Hi Sang,
What is the differential between the 5V VBUS connection and the GND-ISO external GND?
Dear Mohamed
Please ignore the GND part.
Please final check the circuit connection and time constant value.
To be deleted
A0: MLCC
ALERT: MLCC
Are the CLK and SDA resistances 49.9ohm?
Hi Sang,
The SCL and SDA pull up resistors are typically 4.7k or 10kohms. Other then that, everything seems fine.
Dear Mohamed
We will proceed with the final circuit provided.
1. There is nothing that needs to be modified or changed, right?
2. F/U resistance 10K SCL, SDA, ALERT was applied.
3. Is there a reason to use SCL, SDA damping resistance of 49.9ohm?
- If there is no reason, can I apply 0 ohm?
I would like to ask you to answer each of the three questions.
Hi Sang,
1. Everything seems fine other than those resistors on the I2C lines.
2. 10K pullups are used, which is good.
3. I have not heard of this use, and haven't seen it before. Typically we just have the 10K pull ups.
Best,
Mohamed
Dear Mohamed
Mohamed ) 1. Everything seems fine other than those resistors on the I2C lines
srsong) Are you talking about I21C Lines 49.9ohm? This is the value applied to the received reference board.
If the resistance value of the I2C line is a problem, I will set it to 0 ohm.
Other than this, I understand there are no problems. Do you agree?
Dear Mohamed
I would like to inquire further.
The 27V, 36V circuits were implemented in the same way as the 5V, 3.3V monitoring circuits.
Slave addresses will be allocated separately.
Please check whether there are any abnormalities in the two circuit diagrams: 27V and 36V.
The IC specifications were confirmed to be up to 40V.
Hi Sang,
Just be sure not to exceed 36V and you should be fine. Everything else checks out.
Best,
Mohamed
Dear Mohamed
Senses Bus Voltages From 0 V to 36 V,
VBUS specifications are up to 40V.
Is there any reason to be careful not to exceed 36V?
We need to monitor 36V power.
Please reply quickly.
Thank you always for your quick replies.
Hi Sang,
The absolute maximum of the device is 40V, while the device is spec'd from 0-36V. We do not recommend exceeding 36V as the results would not be as predictable. If you were to use over 36V, it would not break until you reach 40V.
Best,
Mohamed
