USB to PMBus™ Adapter User Guide
The Intersil USB to PMBus Adapter (often referred to as a
“dongle”) is used to connect a demonstration board with a
PMBus interface to a PC. The USB to PMBus
adapter is
powered from the USB output of the host PC. The USB
interface utilizes the USB Mini format, and the output uses a
standard 2 row, 6 pin header on 0.100 inch centers. The
PMBus command set is accessed by using the
PowerNavigator™ evaluation software from a PC running
Microsoft Windows. PowerNavigator software is downloaded
from the Intersil website using the following link:
