SBOSAK9A May 2025 – October 2025 INA745A-Q1 , INA745B-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The INA745x-Q1 is designed to respond to the SMBus Alert Response address. The SMBus Alert Response provides a quick fault identification for simple targets. When an Alert occurs, the controller can broadcast the Alert Response target address (0001 100) with the Read/Write bit set high. Following this Alert Response, any target that generates an alert acknowledges the Alert Response and sending the address on the bus.
The Alert Response can activate several different targets simultaneously, similar to the I2C General Call. If more than one target attempts to respond, bus arbitration rules apply. The losing device does not generate an Acknowledge and continues to hold the Alert line low until that device wins arbitration.
