FEEDBACK_EFFORT
This command allows some user adjustment of the tradeoff between transient response, load
regulation, and output noise. The default value is 0.5, which provides a good balance of transient
response performance and output noise characteristics.
Lower values of FEEDBACK_EFFORT (as low as 0.0) will tend to provide lower output noise, at the
expense of transient performance and slightly reduced load regulation accuracy.
Higher values of FEEDBACK_EFFORT (up to 1.0) will provide improved transient response and load
regulation, at the expense of increased output noise and PWM waveform rising/falling edge “jitter.”
As a generalization, increasing FEEDBACK_EFFORT tends to increase effective control loop bandwidth,
while decreasing FEDBACK_EFFORT reduces bandwidth.
Wait at least 500μs for execution after sending the FEEDBACK_EFFORT command before sending
additional PMBus commands.
LOOP_CONFIG
The LOOP_CONFIG command configures miscellaneous control-loop features of the MAX15301. Each
bit in the two data bytes enables a particular function as follows:
The control loop will only use hard-coded NLSS gain values
Enable integral term in the control loop (set by default)
Enable load-variable gate drive voltage lookup table
Enable adaptive gate-drive timing system (not supported)
Enable low-side body diode “braking” on load-release transient
Wait at least 500μs for execution after sending the LOOP_CONFIG command before sending
additional PMBus commands.
