GUI supports Z-One power components
21 February 2007
Power Electronics / Power Management
Power-One′s latest version of its Z-One graphical user interface (GUI) provides the capability to configure, program, and monitor point-of-load (POL) converters and digital power managers (DPMs) obtained from any Z-Alliance compliant manufacturer.
In addition to using an industry-standard I²C communications port, the new GUI supports JTAG programming. Customers who already have a Z-One GUI can automatically update their software to this latest revision via an Internet connection.
The Z-One GUI, used in conjunction with Z-7000 Series products, facilitates simplified power system development. An extensive range of parameters, such as VOUT for each POL, can be user-programmed and stored in a DPM. At system startup, the DPM uses this stored information to initialise up to 32 Z-7000 POLs. After system initialisation, ongoing bi-directional communications facilitate intelligent power system operation. Hardware-configurable Z-1000 POLs are also available for customers preferring power management without programming.
