The VIN_OV_FAULT_LIMIT command sets the PVIN voltage, in volts, when a VIN_OV_FAULT is declared. The response to a detected VIN_OV_FAULT is latch-off always. VIN_OV_FAULT_LIMIT is typically used to stop switching in the event of excessive input voltage, which can result in over-stress damage to the power FETs due to ringing on the SW node. Upon triggering the PVIN overvoltage fault, the device sets the PVIN_OVF bit in the STATUS_INPUT register and notifies the host via the SMB_ALERT# pin..

Bit | Field | Access | Reset | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
15:11 | EXPONENT | R | 00001b | Linear format two’s complement exponent. The exponent is configured automatically through other settings, with a result of 2V LSB. |
10:4 | Reserved | R | 00000b | Not used and always set to 0. |
3:0 | VIN_OV_FAULT_LIMIT | R/W | NVM (default 1001b ( >18.5V) | These bits select the VIN over-voltage threshold. |
Every mantissa binary value in the writable bits is writeable and readable. However, the actual divider is set to the nearest supported value. Additionally, that mantissa value restored from EEPROM is fixed for each setting supported in hardware.
Attempts to change the read-only bits (VIN_OV_FAULT_LIMIT[15:4]) will be considered invalid/unsupported data. The device will NACK the unsupported data and the received value will be ignored. The ’cml’ bit in the STATUS_BYTE and the ‘ivd’ bit in the (7Eh) STATUS_CML registers will be set.
