PRODUCTION DATA.
When CPU is running turbo mode, the system peak power may exceed available power from adapter and battery together. The adapter current and battery discharge peak current, or system voltage drop is indication that system power is too high. The charger processor hot function monitors these events, and PROCHOT pulse is asserted. Once CPU receives PROCHOT pulse from charger, it slows down to reduce system power. The processor hot function monitors these events, and PROCHOT pulse is asserted.
The PROCHOT triggering events include:
The threshold of ICRIT, IDCHG or VSYS, and the deglitch time of ICRIT, INOM, IDCHG or CMPOUT are programmable through SMBus. Each triggering event can be individually enabled in REG0x34[6:0]. When any event in PROCHOT profile is triggered, PROCHOT is asserted low for minimum 10 ms programmable in 0x33[4:3]. At the end of the 10 ms, if the PROCHOT event is still active, the pulse gets extended.
