with PMBus Interface
ISN+ and ISN- are the inputs of the MAX8688 current-
sense amplifier. These pins may be connected to a cur-
rent-sense element such as a current-sense resistor, as
shown in Figures 3 and 5. The voltage proportional to
the sensed current is suitably filtered by an internal
200Ω resistor and external capacitor connected to
ISN_C and is multiplexed to a 12-bit ADC that uses an
accurate internal reference voltage. A scale factor can
be programmed with an IOUT_SCALE PMBus com-
mand to translate the sensed voltage information to the
current. The MAX8688 accommodates a current-sense
range of +40mV/-10mV across the ISN+ and ISN-
inputs. The common-mode voltage range for the cur-
rent-sense signal can be between 0 and 5.5V. When a

negative current is sensed by the MAX8688, FLT is
asserted indicating a negative fault current flow into the
POL output.
The DC resistance of the output inductor (DCR) in a
switch-mode power supply can also function as a current-
sense element, as shown in Figure 7. The RC filter formed
