VOUT_OV_FAULT_RESPONSE
0x80 (Stop regulating and remain off)
See Sections 10.5.1 and 15.3 of the PMBus Specification Part II.
Note that the MAX15301 does not support finite, non-zero restart-attempt counts. (Continuous
restart attempts are supported.)
The VOUT_OV_FAULT_RESPONSE command data comprises three bit-fields:
Bits [7:6] determine the basic fault-response mode. The MAX15301 supports the following modes:
00 Ignore the fault condition.
01 Continue operating and wait for the fault to abate for time specified in bits [2:0]. If the
fault does not abate, shutdown and attempt to restart according to bits [5:3].
10 Stop regulating immediately, delay for the time specified in bits [2:0], then attempt to
restart according to bits [5:3]. (Default setting)
11 Stop regulating immediately, and then restart as soon as possible after the fault
condition abates.
Bits [5:3] determine the number of retry attempts. The MAX15301 supports only a subset of the full
PMBus functionality for this portion of the command:
000-110 No attempt is made to restart after a fault shutdown. (Default setting)
111 Attempt to restart continuously until commanded off, or until another fault
condition causes the unit to shut down.
Bits [2:0] determine the fault-tolerance or retry-delay timing. Each binary value in bits [2:0]
corresponds to a multiple of 100ms, up to a possible maximum of 111
bin
= 700ms. A value of 000
bin
will cause the MAX15301 to use the minimum possible timing value, typically about 30-40ms. (The
default timing for overvoltage faults is 000
bin
.)
VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT
Unsigned integer mantissa
See Section 15.6 of the PMBus Specification Part II.
VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT mantissa data sent to and from the MAX15301 must be divided by 4096 to
determine the actual voltage value, according to the fixed value of VOUT_MODE
.
In the MAX15301, there are seven possible output voltage ranges based on seven corresponding
internal feedback divider taps. The MAX15301 hardware has 8-bit resolution for the undervoltage
fault limit within each of these seven ranges.
The desired value of VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT is retained in memory, regardless o
imposed by the feedback divider range and the 8-bit fault limit resolution, but the read-back value is
based on actual hardware register settings.
The factory value of 0x019A (0.100V) will be overridden during initialization to
