Microchip Technology EMC1702 Current-Sense & Temperature Monitor

Microchip EMC1702 Current-Sense & Temperature Monitor is a combination of a high-side current sensing device with precision temperature measurement. It measures the voltage developed across an external sense resistor to represent the high-side current of a battery or voltage regulator. It also measures the source voltage and uses these measured values to present a proportional power calculation. The EMC1702 contains additional bidirectional peak detection circuitry to flag instantaneous current spikes with programmable time duration and magnitude threshold. Finally, the Microchip EMC1702 includes an external diode channel for temperature measurement and an internal diode for ambient temperature measurements.

The temperature measurement includes advanced features such as Resistance Error Correction (REC), Beta Compensation, and automatic diode type detection. Both current sensing and temperature monitoring include two tiers of protection. One tier can be masked and causes the ALERT pin to be asserted. The other tier cannot be masked and causes the THERM pin to be asserted.
