PRODUCTION DATA.
AVS provides output voltage scaling. AVSBus is a 2-wire communication link that enables bi-directional communication between one ASIC and one or more slave devices for controlling voltage scaling. The two wires required for communication are AVS_Clock and AVS_Data. The AVSBus interface could be used exclusively once PMBus has configured the device properly. The AVS commands can select channel 1 or channel 2 of slave device.
AVSBus is scalable for use with multiple slave devices, and allows for independent control of multiple rails within each slave. This scalability is achieved without sacrificing response time for simpler designs with a single slave, by means of configuration settings.
NOTE
PMBus commands are required to:
