Description
The PAC1921 is a dedicated power-monitoring device with a configurable analog output that can present power, current or voltage. The PAC1921 is designed for power measurement and diagnostic systems that cannot allow for latency when performing high-speed power management. Measurements are accumulated in large lossless registers, allowing for integration periods of 500 µs to 2.9 seconds. The measurement is averaged and presented on the analog output with a full scale range of 3V, 2V, 1.5V or 1.0V.
