INA260EVM-PDK Hardware
shows the overall system setup for the INA260EVM-PDK. The power source to be monitored is
connected to the EVM input terminals. The computer runs the GUI software through which the user can
enable power to the INA260 and communicate with the device. User commands are sent through the
computer's USB port to the SM-USB-DIG board that translates these commands into I
2
C format, before
sending them to the EVM. With power enabled, the INA260 responds to these I
2
C commands by sending
the requested data back to the SM-USB-DIG board over the I
2
C. The SM-USB-DIG converts the received
data to USB format and sends the data back to the computer, where it is then appropriately processed
and displayed to the user.
