PRODUCTION DATA.
Unused external temperature sensor inputs may be used for general-purpose analog monitoring. The READ_AUX_ADCS PMBus command returns a block of four 16-bit values, each of which is the average of multiple raw measurements from the Temp/AuxADC inputs. A value of 0 corresponds to 0.00V and a value of 65535 corresponds to 2.50V. Unlike many other variables that can be monitored via PMBus, no mechanism is provided for adjusting the gain or offset of the Aux ADC measurements.
When using the temperature sensor inputs as Auxiliary ADCs, the temperature warning and faults should be disabled to prevent shut-downs due to non-existent over-temperature conditions.
