Notebook Core Power Monitor Programming 4.3

Notebook Core Power Monitor Programming is a dedicated configuration and validation utility from Monolithic Power Systems, Inc. designed for engineers working with notebook CPU core power rails. It streamlines setup, tuning, and production programming of compatible MPS power monitor devices, combining an intuitive GUI with robust data logging and automation options for lab, validation, and manufacturing environments.

Key capabilities:

• Device configuration: Read/write registers, set thresholds, protections, and telemetry parameters over I2C/SMBus/PMBus.
• Profile management: Create, clone, compare, and archive configuration profiles for consistent design and production use.
• NVM/OTP programming: Program non-volatile settings with pre-checks, verification, and safeguards to help prevent misconfiguration.
• Real-time telemetry: Monitor voltage, current, power, and temperature with trend charts and event logging.
• Data export and reporting: Save logs and configurations to common formats for analysis and documentation.
• Production tools: Batch programming, pass/fail checks, and operator prompts to support scalable line deployment.
• Automation: Scriptable flows and APIs for repeatable tests and integration into existing validation setups.
• Bus utilities: Device discovery, address assignment, and alert/status diagnostics.

Typical uses:

• Rapid bring-up and characterization of notebook core power rails.
• Fine-tuning protections and telemetry for system reliability.
• Creating and locking “golden” configurations for manufacturing.
• Field service updates and troubleshooting.

Basic requirements:

• Windows 10/11 (64-bit) and a compatible MPS USB-to-I2C/PMBus interface.
• Appropriate evaluation board or target hardware and device drivers.

Note: Programming one-time programmable (OTP) memory is irreversible. Verify configurations and follow MPS guidelines before committing changes.
