SLUSBO6C JANUARY 2014 – October 2018 TPS40425
PRODUCTION DATA.
Format | Unsigned binary | ||||
Description | The STATUS_VOUT command returns one byte of information relating to the status of the converter's output voltage related faults. The PMBus core is notified of these fault conditions via the 2 input pins labeled OVF and UVF. The PMBus core then communicates these faults to the host through its serial communication channel.
STATUS_VOUT is a paged register. In order to access this register for channel 1 of the TPS40425 device, PAGE must be set to 0. In order to access this register for channel 2 of TPS40425 controller, PAGE must be set to 1. For simultaneous access of channels 1 and 2, PAGE command must be set to 11. |

Bits | Field Name | Description |
---|---|---|
7 | OVF | (= VOUT OV Fault in the PMBus Specification)
(Format: binary) Output Over-Voltage Fault Set based upon the value stored in MFR_SPECIFIC_07 (D7h). If the channel is configured as a slave this bit are set to 0 (this bit is only reflected in the master). 0: (Default) An output over-voltage fault has not occurred. 1: An output over-voltage fault has occurred. |
6:5 | 0 | Default: 0 |
4 | UVF | (= VOUT UV Fault in the PMBus Specification)
(Format: binary) Output Under-Voltage Fault Set based upon the value stored in MFR_SPECIFIC_07 (D7h). If the channel is configured as a slave this bit are set to 0 (this bit is only reflected in the master). The UV fault indicates only an under-voltage condition at the FB pin and may not necessarily reflect an over-current situation. However, during an output crowbar short condition, the FB may sag below the UV threshold level before the current reaches the OC threshold, resulting in a UV fault. If the IOUT_OC_FAULT_ RESPONSE register is selected to the retry setting, and the output short is persistent, an over-current fault are triggered for subsequent startup retry attempts. 0: (Default) An output under-voltage fault has not occurred. 1: An output under-voltage fault has occurred. |
3:0 | 0 | Default: 0 |
