JAJSNM6F November 2004 – January 2022 TPS2384
PRODUCTION DATA
Auto mode (AM, MS = 0) operation is the basic approach for applying power to IEEE compliant PDs. When AM has been selected the TPS2384 automatically performs the following functions:
In AM the contents of all read registers are available through the I2C interface. In addition, all control registers except for the function bits can be written. This fact supports a semi-auto mode where the TPS2384 auto detects compliant PDs while a host can access the A/D registers and class information and then implement power management (including turning a port off, responding to faults, and so forth).
The write registers that are still active in AM are:
For Alternative B, semi-auto mode implementations which manipulate the all Ports Disable or Port Enable bits, refer to TPS2384 Power Sourcing Equipment Power Manager Device Errata.
