Product details
Overview
LM5056APMHX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a high-voltage system power management IC with PMBus™ interface, designed for real-time telemetry of input voltage (10–80 V), input current, input power (±1.75% accuracy), and remote temperature in server backplane and industrial power distribution systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM5056APMHX/NOPB datasheet, LM5056APMHX/NOPB pinout, LM5056APMHX/NOPB application, or LM5056APMHX/NOPB equivalent, this device delivers 12-bit simultaneous VIN/IIN sampling, programmable WARN/FAULT thresholds, black-box telemetry capture, and SMBus-compliant command structure for embedded power monitoring.
Technical Context
The LM5056APMHX/NOPB integrates a 12-bit ADC with round-robin acquisition time of 1 ms, supporting simultaneous sampling of VIN and IIN to enable true real-time input power calculation. Its analog front-end includes dedicated sense amplifier inputs (VIN_K/SENSE) with ±3.0 V differential tolerance and CL pin-selectable full-scale ranges (27.0 mV or 54.4 mV).
It implements a PMBus-compliant SMBus interface with active-low SMBA alert output, tri-state address pins (ADR0–ADR2), and internal 2.97 V reference (±0.03 V over temperature). The device operates across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and requires external 5.0 V ±10% VDD supply.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage telemetry applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5056PMHX/NOPB | LM5056 (non-A) variant with ±2.25% power accuracy and ±1.5% current accuracy; identical pinout and firmware interface. | Lower accuracy acceptable in cost-sensitive industrial monitoring where ±2% power error is tolerable. | Select LM5056PMHX/NOPB only when telemetry precision requirements are relaxed and legacy design reuse is prioritized. |
| MAX34451ETL+ | 16-bit ADC, wider 3 V–80 V VIN range, integrated EEPROM, but no remote diode sensing; uses different PMBus register map. | Preferred for ultra-high-accuracy data logging in test equipment; lacks integrated thermal sensing for compact LED systems. | Choose MAX34451ETL+ when 16-bit resolution and nonvolatile configuration storage outweigh need for on-chip temperature sensing. |
Compared with LM5056PMHX/NOPB, the LM5056APMHX/NOPB delivers tighter power and current accuracy for mission-critical telemetry; versus MAX34451ETL+, it trades resolution and EEPROM for integrated thermal sensing and simpler thermal layout in space-constrained LED or telecom modules.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the LM5056APMHX/NOPB in a power system?
The LM5056APMHX/NOPB serves as a high-voltage telemetry hub that continuously measures and reports input voltage (10–80 V), input current, input power, output voltage, auxiliary voltage, and remote temperature via PMBus. It enables real-time system health monitoring, fault logging, and thermal management in server, telecom, and industrial power architectures. Its black-box capture feature stores telemetry snapshots upon WARN/FAULT events, making LM5056APMHX/NOPB essential for diagnostics and reliability validation.
How does the LM5056APMHX/NOPB achieve ±1.75% input power accuracy?
The LM5056APMHX/NOPB achieves ±1.75% input power accuracy through simultaneous 12-bit sampling of VIN and IIN, eliminating time-skew errors inherent in sequential measurement. Its analog front-end uses matched gain paths and calibrated reference (2.97 V ±0.03 V) to ensure consistent scaling across operating temperature (–40°C to +125°C). This specification applies under defined conditions: VIN = 48 V, VIN_K–SENSE = 22 mV, CL = VDD, and TJ = 0°C to 85°C-verified per TI's SNVS827A datasheet for LM5056APMHX/NOPB.
Can the LM5056APMHX/NOPB monitor output voltage independently of input voltage?
Yes, the LM5056APMHX/NOPB monitors output voltage independently via the OUT pin (Pin 1), which accepts voltages up to 80 V and connects directly to the ADC multiplexer. This allows concurrent measurement of VIN (Pin 5) and VOUT (via OUT) without shared signal path interference. The device reports VOUT with ±1.0% accuracy across 0°C to 85°C, enabling dual-rail telemetry in systems with isolated DC-DC stages or redundant power feeds-confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the LM5056APMHX/NOPB datasheet.
What is the role of the CL pin on the LM5056APMHX/NOPB?
The CL pin (Pin 22) on the LM5056APMHX/NOPB selects the full-scale current sense voltage range: connecting CL to VDD sets 27.0 mV FSR, while connecting CL to DGND sets 54.4 mV FSR. This hardware-selectable range optimizes ADC resolution for varying load currents-e.g., 27.0 mV suits high-current, low-RS designs, whereas 54.4 mV improves SNR for low-current, high-RS configurations. The setting is latched at power-up and can be overridden via PMBus DEVICE_SETUP (D9h) command, ensuring flexibility in both layout and runtime configuration for LM5056APMHX/NOPB.
Does the LM5056APMHX/NOPB require an external temperature sensor?
No, the LM5056APMHX/NOPB integrates a remote diode temperature sensing circuit and only requires an external NPN transistor (e.g., MMBT3904) connected to the DIODE pin (Pin 16) and AGND. The IC sources precise current steps (9.4 μA DC + 250 μA pulses) to measure junction voltage changes, computing temperature with ±2°C accuracy from 25°C to 85°C. No external ADC, biasing resistors, or calibration ICs are needed-this capability is intrinsic to LM5056APMHX/NOPB and documented in its Functional Description and Typical Characteristics sections.
