Programming ADRSEL

The resistor divider for the ADRSEL pin selects the range of PMBus Addresses and SYNC direction for the TPS546A24S. For Stand Alone devices with only one device supporting a single output voltage, the ADRSEL divider also selects the Phase Shift between SYNC and the switch node.

Note:

When a TPS546A24S device is configured as the loop controller of a multi-phase stack, the device always occupies the zero-degree position in (37h) INTERLEAVE, but the ADRSEL resistor divider can still be used to select Auto Detect, Forced SYNC_IN, and Forced SYNC_OUT. When the loop controller of a multi-phase stack is configured for SYNC_IN, all devices of the stack remain disabled until a valid external SYNC signal is provided.

Loop follower devices in a multi-phase stack are always configured for SYNC_IN and will declare a SYNC_FAULT in (80h) STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC if enabled before a SYNC input is present or if the SYNC input is lost before being disabled. In order to avoid these false faults due to differences in enable and disable timing between a loop controller and a loop follower device, TI recommends that the loop controller device of a multi-phase stack be configured for SYNC_OUT rather than Auto-detect if no external SYNC will be used.
