LM5056A: Voltage and Current Reading

Part Number: LM5056A

Dear Team,

I am not sure how to read the LM5056A's current and voltage.

Can you help to confirm it?

We current;y use 3mohm for Rsense.

 

I am not sure is base on below picture or not.

If yes, please help on checking the m, Y, R, and B for both current and voltage.

I try to calculate it, but need your confirm on it, appreciated

BR

  • Hi Kevin,

    There are two options to determine the parameters.

    The first is to simply calculate based on RS and table 40. Corresponding to the schematic, RS=3mOhm and CL=GND. We can get m=7471X3=22423, b=1949, R=-2.

    The 2nd option is to calculate a set of custom parameters based on curve fitting as you quoted above. I think the datasheet is perfectly clear on this topic.

  • Dear Guang,

    Thanks for the information.

    I think I understand more for how to calculate it.

    But I still get a wrong value here, please help on it.

    e1 ==> 2's complment should be -31.

    The equation for Vin should be 1/4612*(-31*10^2+566)=-0.549V

    But the customer's input voltage is 54V here, it seems something wrong here.

    Please help on it

    BR

  • Hi Kevin,

    The Vin value should be a two-byte data. Just want to make sure that two bytes were read and used in the calculation?

    I don't know how to interpret the raw data picture you posted.
