CHANNEL REDUCTION
ABB supplies 4 and 8 parallel EVM by default. If 2,3,5,6,7 DJT090 operation is desired, PMBus
reconfiguration is a must and board modification is recommended. Each channel contains an output
shunt resistor. By removing the shunt resistor, the associated DJT090 and its output capacitors will
be disconnected to the loading point. Although PMBus command can be used to disable the unused
channel, the existence of the unused DJT090 and its capacitance can potentially cause unwanted
oscillation since all DJT090 and its output capacitance are shared a common point of load. Thus, use
below table as a guide to disconnect unused channels. (Mismatched output
impedance doesn’t
affect current sharing capability but has an impact for transient performance).
