The TON_MAX_FAULT_LIMIT command sets an upper limit, in milliseconds, on how long the unit can attempt to power up the output without reaching the target voltage.
The TON_MAX time is defined as the maximum allowable amount of time from the end of TON_DELAY, until the output voltage reaches 85% of the programmed output voltage, as sensed by the READ_VOUT telemetry at VOSNS - GOSNS.
Note that for the TPS546B24S, the undervoltage fault limit is enabled at the end of TON_RISE. As a consequence, unless VOUT_UV_FAULT_RESPONSE is set to ignore, in the case of a “real” TON_MAX fault (for example, output voltage did not rise quickly enough), UV faults / associated response will always precede TON_MAX.
The converter response to a TON_MAX fault event is described in TON_MAX_FAULT_RESPONSE.

Attempts to write (62h) TON_MAX_FAULT_LIMIT beyond its supported range will be considered an invalid/unsupported command and cause the TPS546B24S to respond by flagging the appropriate status bits and notifying the host according to the PMBus 1.3.1 Part II specification section 10.9.3. TON_MAX_FAULT_LIMIT supports values from 0 ms to 127 ms in 0.5-ms steps.
TON_MAX_FAULT_LIMIT compares the last VOUT telemetry value recorded prior to the TON_MAX_FAULT_LIMIT timer expiring to 87.5% of VOUT_COMMAND to determine a TON_MAX_FAULT. Due to delay in VOUT telemetry, a TON_MAX_FAULT can be declared if VOUT was less than 87.5% of VOUT_COMMAND up to 2ms prior to TON_MAX_FAULT_LIMIT.
*Note: programming TON_MAX_FAULT to 0 ms disables the TON_MAX functionality.
