MAXIM MAX34440

19-5527; Rev 0; 9/10
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
The MAX34440 is a complex system monitor that can
manage up to six power supplies. The power-supply
manager monitors the power-supply output voltage and
constantly checks for user-programmable overvoltage
and undervoltage thresholds. It can also margin the
power-supply output voltage up or down to a userprogrammable level. The margining is performed in a
closed-loop arrangement whereby the device automatically adjusts a pulse-width-modulated (PWM) output and
then measures the resultant output voltage. The powersupply manager can also sequence the supplies in any
order at both power-up and power-down. With the addition of an external current-sense amplifier, the device
can also monitor currents.

MAX34440
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
Detailed Description
the supplies in any order at both power-up and powerdown. With the addition of an external current-sense
amplifier, the device can also monitor currents.
The MAX34440 is a highly integrated system monitor
based upon a 16-bit MAXQM microcontroller with factory-programmed functionality to monitor up to six power
supplies. The device provides power-supply closed-loop
control, and local/remote thermal-sensing facilities.
Thermal monitoring can be accomplished using up to
eight temperature sensors, including an on-chip thermal sensor, four DS75LV digital thermometers, and a
MAX6695 dual remote/local thermal temperature sensor.
Communication with the DS75LV and MAX6695 temperature sensors is conducted through a dedicated I2C/
SMBus interface.
The power-supply manager monitors the power-supply
output voltage and constantly checks for user-programmable overvoltage and undervoltage thresholds. It
also can margin the power-supply output voltage up or
down by a user-programmable level. The margining is
performed in a closed-loop arrangement, whereby the
device automatically adjusts a pulse-width-modulated
(PWM) output and then measures the resultant output
voltage. The power-supply manager can also sequence
The device provides ALERT and FAULT output signals.
Host communications are conducted through a PMBuscompatible communications port. Address input connections are also provided to allow up to four MAX34440
devices to reside on the system’s I/O bus.

Addressing
The device responds to receiving its fixed slave address
by asserting an acknowledge (ACK) on the bus. The
device does not respond to a general call address; it
only responds when it receives its fixed slave address.
The only exception to this operation is if the ALERT
output is enabled (ALERT bit = 1 in MFR_MODE) and
ALERT has been asserted. When this condition occurs,
the device only recognizes the alert response address
(0001 100, 18h). See the ALERT and Alert Response
Address (ARA) section for more details.
ALERT and Alert Response Address (ARA)
If the ALERT output is enabled (ALERT bit = 1 in
MFR_MODE), when a fault occurs the device asserts the
ALERT signal and then waits for the host to send the alert

response address (ARA) as shown in the Alert Response
Address (ARA) Byte Format section. While waiting for
the ARA, the device does not respond to its fixed
slave address.
When the ARA is received and the device is asserting
ALERT, the device ACKs it and then attempts to place
its fixed slave address on the bus by arbitrating the
bus, since another device could also try to respond to
the ARA. The rules of arbitration state that the lowest
address device wins. If the device wins the arbitration,
it deasserts ALERT and begins to respond to its fixed
slave address. If the device loses arbitration, it keeps
ALERT asserted and waits for the host to once again
send the ARA.

Host Sends or Reads Too Few Bits
If for any reason the host does not complete writing a full
byte or reading a full byte from the device before a START
or STOP is received, the device does the following:
1) Ignores the command.
2) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE.
3) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_WORD.
4) Sets the DATA_FAULT bit in STATUS_CML.
5) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled).
Host Sends or Reads Too Few Bytes
For each supported command, the device expects a
fixed number of bytes to be written or read from the
device. If for any reason fewer than the expected number
of bytes is written to or read from the device, the device
completely ignores the command and takes no action.
Host Sends Too Many Bytes or Bits
For each supported command, the device expects a
fixed number of bytes to be written to the device. If for
any reason more than the expected number of bytes or
bits is written to the device, the device does the following:
1) Ignores the command.
2) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE.
3) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_WORD.
4) Sets the DATA_FAULT bit in STATUS_CML.
5) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled).
Host Reads Too Many Bytes or Bits
For each supported command, the device expects a fixed
number of bytes to be read from the device. If for any
reason more than the expected number of bytes or bits is
read from the device, the device does the following:
1) Sends all ones (FFh) as long as the host keeps
acknowledging.
2) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE.
3) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_WORD.
4) Sets the DATA_FAULT bit in STATUS_CML.
5) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled).
18
Host Sends Improperly Set Read Bit
in the Slave Address Byte
If the device receives the R/W bit in the slave address
set to one immediately preceding the command code,
the device does the following (note this does not apply
to ARA):
1) ACKs the address byte.
2) Sends all ones (FFh) as long as the host keeps
acknowledging.
3) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE.
4) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_WORD.
5) Sets the DATA_FAULT bit in STATUS_CML.
6) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled).
Unsupported Command Code Received
If the host sends the device a command code that it
does not support, or if the host sends a command code
that is not supported by the current PAGE setting, the
device does the following:
1) Ignores the command.
2) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE.
3) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_WORD.
4) Sets the COMM_FAULT bit in STATUS_CML.
5) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled).
Invalid Data Received
The device checks the PAGE, OPERATION, and
WRITE_PROTECT command codes for valid data. If
the host writes a data value that is invalid, the device
does the following:
1) Ignores the command.
2) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE.
3) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_WORD.
4) Sets the DATA_FAULT bit in STATUS_CML.
5) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled).
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
1) ACKs the address byte.
2) Ignores the command.
3) Sends all ones (FFh) as long as the host keeps

4) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE.
5) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_WORD.
6) Sets the DATA_FAULT bit in STATUS_CML.
7) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled).
Host Writes to a Read-Only Command
When a write request is issued to a read-only command,
the device does the following:
1) Ignores the command.
2) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE.
3) Sets the CML bit in STATUS_WORD.
4) Sets the COMM_FAULT bit in STATUS_CML.
5) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled).
SMBus Timeout
If during an active SMBus communication sequence the
SCL signal is held low for greater than the timeout duration
(tTO), the device terminates the sequence and resets the
serial bus. It takes no other action. No status bits are set.
PMBus Operation
From a software perspective, the device appears as a
PMBus device capable of executing a subset of PMBus
commands. A PMBus 1.1-compliant device uses the
SMBus version 1.1 for transport protocol and responds
to the SMBus slave address. In this data sheet, the term
SMBus is used to refer to the electrical characteristics
of the PMBus communication using the SMBus physical layer. The term PMBus is used to refer to the PMBus
command protocol. The device employs a number of
standard SMBus protocols to program output voltage
and warning/faults thresholds, read monitored data, and
provide access to all manufacturer-specific commands.
The device supports the group command. The group
command is used to send commands to more than one
PMBus device. It is not required that all the devices
receive the same command. However, no more than
one command can be sent to any one device in one
group command packet. The group command must not
be used with commands that require receiving devices
to respond with data, such as the STATUS_BYTE command. When the device receives a command through
this protocol, it immediately begins execution of the
received command after detecting the STOP condition.
The device supports the PAGE command and uses it to
select which individual channel to access. When a data
word is transmitted, the lower order byte is sent first and
the higher order byte is sent last. Within any byte, the
most significant bit (MSB) is sent first and the least significant bit (LSB) is sent last.
PMBus Protocol Support
The device supports a subset of the commands defined
in the PMBus™ Power System Management Protocol
Specification Part II - Command Language, Revision 1.1.
For detailed specifications and the complete list of
PMBus commands, refer to Part II of the PMBus specification available at www.PMBus.org. The supported PMBus commands and the corresponding device
behavior are described in this document. All data values
are represented in DIRECT format, unless otherwise
stated. Whenever the PMBus specification refers to the
PMBus device, it is referring to the MAX34440 operating
in conjunction with a power supply. While the command
can call for turning on or turning off the PMBus device,
the MAX34440 always remains on to continue communicating with the PMBus master, and the MAX34440
transfers the command to the power supply accordingly.
Data Format
Voltage data for commanding or reading the output
voltage or related parameters (such as the overvoltage threshold) is presented in DIRECT format. DIRECT
format data is a 2-byte, two’s complement binary value.
DIRECT format data can be used with any command that
sends or reads a parametric value. The DIRECT format
uses an equation and defined coefficients to calculate
the desired values. Table 3 shows the coefficients used
by the device.
Interpreting Received
DIRECT Format Values
The host system uses the following equation to convert
the value received from the PMBus device—in this case,
the MAX34440—into a reading of volts, degrees Celsius,
or other units as appropriate:
X = (1/m) x (Y x 10-R - b)
where X is the calculated, real world value in the appropriate units (V, NC, etc.); m is the slope coefficient; Y is
the 2-byte, two’s complement integer received from the
PMBus device; b is the offset; and R is the exponent.

MAX34440
Host Reads from a Write-Only Command
When a read request is issued to a write-only
command (CLEAR_FAULTS, STORE_DEFAULT_ALL,
RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL), the device does the following:

To send a value, the host must use the below equation
to solve for Y:
If a host wants to set the device to change the powersupply output voltage to 3.465V (or 3465mV), the corresponding VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH value is:
Y = (mX + b) x 10R
Y = (1 x 3465 + 0) x 100 = 3465 (decimal) = 0D89h (hex)
where Y is the 2-byte, two’s complement integer to be
sent to the unit; m is the slope coefficient; X is the real
world value, in units such as volts, to be converted for
transmission; b is the offset; and R is the exponent.
Conversely, if the host received a value of 0D89h on a
READ_VOUT command, this is equivalent to:
Sending a DIRECT Format Value
The following example demonstrates how the host can
send and retrieve values from the device. Table 4 shows
the coefficients used in the following parameters.

Power supplies and power converters generally have
no way of knowing how their outputs are connected to
ground. Within the power supply, all output voltages are
most commonly treated as positive. Accordingly, all output voltages and output voltage-related parameters of
PMBus devices are commanded and reported as positive values. It is up to the system to know that a particular
output is negative if that is of interest to the system. All
output-voltage-related commands use 2 data bytes.
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
See the individual command sections for more details.
Faults and warnings that are latched in the status registers are cleared when any one of the following conditions
occurs:
• A CLEAR_FAULTS command is received.
• The RST pin is toggled.
• Bias power to the device is removed and then reapplied.
One or more latched-off power supplies is only restarted
when one of the following occurs:
• The output is commanded through the CONTROL
pin, the OPERATION command, or the combined
action of the CONTROL pin and OPERATION command to turn off and then turn back on.
• The RST pin is toggled.
• Bias power to the device is removed and then reapplied.
A power supply is not allowed to turn on if any faults the
supply responds to are detected. Only after the faults
clear is the power supply allowed to turn on. When global
supplies are being sequenced on, a fault on any of the
supplies keeps all supplies from being turned on.
A system-wide power-up (OPERATION command is
received to turn the supplies on when PAGE is 255 or the
CONTROL pin is toggled to turn on the supplies) allows
all enabled power supplies to power-up. If any faults are
detected once the supplies start to turn on, the response
of MFR_FAULT_RESPONSE is performed.
The device responds to fault conditions according to the manufacturer fault response command
(MFR_FAULT_RESPONSE). This command byte determines how the device should respond to each particular
fault. Table 5 illustrates the required conditions and fault
actions for specific parameters.
System Watchdog Timer
The device uses an internal watchdog timer that is internally reset every 5ms. In the event that the device is
locked up and this watchdog reset does not occur after
500ms, the device automatically resets. After the reset
occurs, the device reloads all configuration values that
were stored to flash and begins normal operation. After
the reset, the device also does the following:
1) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE and MFR bits in
STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the WATCHDOG bit in STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC.
4) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled
in MFR_MODE).

Fault Management and Reporting
For reporting faults/warnings to the host on a real-time
basis, the device asserts the open-drain ALERT pin (if
enabled in MFR_MODE) and sets the appropriate bit in
the various status registers. On recognition of the ALERT
assertion, the host or system manager is expected to poll
the I2C bus to determine the device asserting ALERT.
The host sends the SMBus ARA (0001 100). The device
ACKs the SMBus ARA, transmits its slave address, and
deasserts ALERT. The system controller then communicates with PMBus commands to retrieve the fault/warning status information from the device.
MAX34440
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
Temperature Sensor Operation
The device can monitor up to eight different temperature
sensors, seven external sensors plus its own internal
temperature sensor. The external temperature sensors
are all connected in parallel to the master I2C port
(MSDA and MSCL pins). The device can support up to
four DS75LV devices plus one MAX6695 device. Each
of the enabled temperature sensors is measured once
a second. The internal temperature sensor is averaged
four times to reduce the affect of noise. Each time the
device attempts to read a temperature sensor it checks
for faults. For the remote diode, a fault is defined as
either an open or short across the diode. For the internal
temperature sensor, a fault is defined as reading greater
than +130NC or less than -60NC. For the I2C temperature
sensors, a fault is defined as a communication access
failure. Temperature sensor faults are reported by setting the temperature reading to 7FFFh. A temperature
sensor fault results in the setting of the TEMPERATURE
bit in STATUS_BYTE and STATUS_WORD and ALERT is
asserted (if enabled in MFR_MODE). No bits are set in
STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC. Reading disabled temperature sensors returns a fixed value of 0000h.
The device can control up to four DS75LV digital temperature sensors. The A0, A1, and A2 pins on the DS75LV
should be configured as shown in Table 6. The thermostat function on the DS75LV is not used and thus the O.S.
output should be left open circuit.
The device can control one MAX6695, which consists of
one local temperature sensor and two remote diode temperature sensors. Each of the temperature sensors can
be reinitialized by disabling and re-enabling the sensor
through MFR_TEMP_SENSOR_CONFIG. The valid range
for the MAX6695 temperature sensor is -40°C to +125°C.
The page assignment is shown in Table 6. The ALERT,
OT1, and OT2 pins on the MAX6695 are not used and
should be left open circuit.

PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
A summary of the PMBus commands supported by the device are described in the following sections.
PAGE (00h)
The device can control up to six power supplies and up to eight temperature sensors using one PMBus (I2C) address.
Send the PAGE command with data 0 to 13 to select which power supply or which temperature sensor is affected by
all the PMBus commands shown in Table 1. Not all commands are supported within each page. If an unsupported
command is received, the CML status bit is set. Some commands are common, meaning that any selected page has
the same effect on and the same response from the device.

PMBus Commands
MAX34440
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
OPERATION (01h)
The OPERATION command is used to turn the power supply on and off in conjunction with the CONTROL input pin. The
OPERATION command is also used to cause the power supply to set the output voltage to the upper or lower margin
voltages. The power supply stays in the commanded operating mode until a subsequent OPERATION command or
until a change in the state of the CONTROL pin (if enabled) instructs the power supply to change to another state. The
valid OPERATION command byte values are shown in Tables 8 and 9. The OPERATION command controls how the
device responds when commanded to change the output. When the command byte is 00h, the device immediately
turns the power supply off and ignores any programmed turn-off delay. When the command byte is set to 40h, the
device powers down according to the programmed turn-off delay. In Tables 8 and 9, “act on any fault” means that if
any warning or fault on the selected power supply is detected when the output is margined, the device treats this as a
warning or fault and responds as programmed. “Ignore all faults” means that overvoltage, overcurrent, and undervoltage warnings and faults on the selected power supply are ignored and not reported. Any command value not shown
in Tables 8 and 9 is an invalid command. If the device receives a data byte that is not listed in Tables 8 and 9, then
it treats this as invalid data, declares a data fault (set CML bit and assert ALERT), and responds as described in the
Fault Management and Reporting section.
USER NOTE: All power supplies tagged as GLOBAL supplies (see MFR_FAULT_RESPONSE) should be turned
on and off at the same time.

CLEAR_FAULTS (03h)
The CLEAR_FAULTS command is used to clear any fault or warning bits in the status registers that have been set.
This command clears all bits simultaneously. The CLEAR_FAULTS command does not cause a power supply that has
latched off for a fault condition to restart. The status of PSEN under fault conditions is not affected by this command
and changes only if commanded through the OPERATION command or CONTROL pin. If a fault is still present after the
CLEAR_FAULTS command is executed, the fault status bit is set again and the host is also notified by asserting ALERT
(if enabled in MFR_MODE). This command is write-only. There is no data byte for this command.
WRITE_PROTECT (10h)
The WRITE_PROTECT command is used to provide protection against accidental changes to the device operating
memory. All supported commands can have their parameters read, regardless of the WRITE_PROTECT settings. The
WRITE_PROTECT message content is described in Table 11.

ON_OFF_CONFIG (02h)
The ON_OFF_CONFIG command configures the combination of CONTROL input and PMBus OPERATION commands
needed to turn the power supply on and off. This indicates how the power supply is commanded when power is
applied. Table 10 describes the ON_OFF_CONFIG message content. The host should not modify ON_OFF_CONFIG
while the power supplies are active.
MAX34440
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
STORE_DEFAULT_ALL (11h)
The STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command instructs the device to transfer the device configuration information to the internal
flash memory array. Not all information is stored. Only configuration data is stored, not any status, or operational data.
If an error occurs during the transfer, ALERT asserts if enabled and the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE and STATUS_WORD
is set to 1. No bits are set in STATUS_CML. It is NOT recommended to use the STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command
while the device is operating power supplies. The device is unresponsive to PMBus commands and does not
monitor power supplies while transferring the configuration. This command is write-only. There is no data byte for this
command.
USER NOTE: VDD must be above 2.9V for the device to perform the STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command.
RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL (12h)
The RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL command transfers the default configuration information from the internal flash memory
array to the user memory registers in the device. The RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL command should only be executed
when the device is not operating the power supplies. Upon a device reset, this command is automatically executed
by the device without PMBus action required. This command is write-only. There is no data byte for this command.
CAPABILITY (19h)
The CAPABILITY command is used to determine some key capabilities of the device. The CAPABILITY command is
read-only. The message content is described in the Table 12.

0 = Device does not support ALERT output (ALERT is disabled in MFR_MODE).
Reserved
Always returns 0000.
VOUT_MODE (20h)
The VOUT_MODE command is used to report the data format of the device. The device uses the DIRECT format for all
the voltage-related commands. The value returned is 40h, indicating DIRECT data format. This command is read-only.
If a host attempts to write this command, the CML status bit is asserted. See Table 3 for the m, b, and R values for the
various commands.
VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH (25h)
The VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH command loads the device with the voltage to which the power-supply output is to be
changed when the OPERATION command is set to margin high. If the power supply is already operating at margin
high, changing VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH has no effect on the output voltage. The device only adjusts the power supply to
the new VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH voltage after receiving a new margin high OPERATION command. The 2 data bytes are
in DIRECT format. If the device cannot successfully close-loop margin the power supply, the device keeps attempting
to margin the supply and does the following:
1) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE and MFR bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the MARGIN_FAULT bit in STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC.
4) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).
26
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
1) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE and MFR bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the MARGIN_FAULT bit in STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC.
4) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).
VOUT_SCALE_MONITOR (2Ah)
VOUT_SCALE_MONITOR is used in applications where the measured power-supply voltage is not equal to the voltage
at the ADC input. For example, if the ADC input expects a 1.0V input for a 12V output, VOUT_SCALE_MONITOR =
1.0V/12V = 0.0833. In applications where the power-supply output voltage is greater than the device input range, the
output voltage of the power supply is sensed through a resistive voltage-divider. The resistive voltage-divider reduces
or scales the output voltage. The PMBus commands specify the actual power-supply output voltages and not the input
voltage to the ADC. To allow the device to map between the power-supply voltage (such as 12V) and the voltage at
the ADC input, the VOUT_SCALE_MONITOR command is used. The 2 data bytes are in DIRECT format. This value is
dimensionless. For example, if the required scaling factor is 0.0833, then VOUT_SCALE_MONITOR should be set to
0AABh (2731/32,767 = 0.0833).

Note: On the device, the full-scale ADC voltage is 1.225V. A scaling factor where a 1.0V ADC input represents a nominal 100%
voltage level is recommended.
IOUT_CAL_GAIN (38h)
The IOUT_CAL_GAIN command is used to set the ratio of the voltage at the ADC input to the sensed current. The units
of the IOUT_CAL_GAIN factor are 0.1mI. The 2 data bytes are in DIRECT format. For example, if a 10mI sense resistor is used with a 50V/V current-sense amplifier, the IOUT_CAL_GAIN should be set to 500mI or 1388h.
USER NOTE: On the device, the full-scale ADC voltage is 1.225V. The value of the sense resistor and currentsense amplifier gain must be scaled appropriately.

MAX34440
VOUT_MARGIN_LOW (26h)
The VOUT_MARGIN_LOW command loads the device with the voltage to which the power-supply output is to be
changed when the OPERATION command is set to margin low. If the power supply is already operating at margin low,
changing VOUT_MARGIN_LOW has no effect on the output voltage. The device only adjusts the power supply to the
new VOUT_MARGIN_LOW voltage after receiving a new margin low OPERATION command. The 2 data bytes are in
DIRECT format. If the device cannot successfully close-loop margin the power supply, the device keeps attempting to
margin the supply and does the following:
MAX34440
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
VOUT_OV_FAULT_LIMIT (40h)
The VOUT_OV_FAULT_LIMIT command sets the value of the output voltage that causes an output overvoltage fault.
The 2 data bytes are in DIRECT format. In response to the VOUT_OV_FAULT_LIMIT being exceeded, the device does
the following:
1) Sets the VOUT_OV bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the VOUT_OV and VOUT bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the VOUT_OV_FAULT bit in STATUS_VOUT.
4) Responds as specified in the MFR_FAULT_RESPONSE.
5) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).
VOUT_OV_WARN_LIMIT (42h)
The VOUT_OV_WARN_LIMIT command sets the value of the output voltage that causes an output-voltage high warning. This value is typically less than the output overvoltage threshold in VOUT_OV_FAULT_LIMIT. The 2 data bytes are
in DIRECT format. In response to the VOUT_OV_WARN_LIMIT being exceeded, the device does the following:
1) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE and VOUT bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the VOUT_OV_WARN bit in STATUS_VOUT.
4) Notifies the host using ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).
VOUT_UV_WARN_LIMIT (43h)
The VOUT_UV_WARN_LIMIT command sets the value of the output voltage that causes an output-voltage low warning.
This value is typically greater than the output undervoltage fault threshold in VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT. This warning is
masked until the output voltage reaches the programmed VOUT_UV_FAULT for the first time and also during turn-off
when the power supply is disabled. The 2 data bytes are in DIRECT format. In response to violation of the VOUT_UV_
WARN_LIMIT, the device does the following:
1) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE and VOUT bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the VOUT_UV_WARN bit in STATUS_VOUT.
4) Notifies the host using ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).
VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT (44h)
The VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT command sets the value of the output voltage that causes an output undervoltage fault.
This fault is masked until the output voltage reaches the programmed VOUT_UV_FAULT for the first time and also
during turn-off when the power supply is disabled. The VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT threshold is also used to determine if
TON_MAX_FAULT_LIMIT is exceeded. The 2 data bytes are in DIRECT format. In response to violation of the VOUT_
UV_FAULT_LIMIT, the device does the following:
1) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE and VOUT bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the VOUT_UV_FAULT bit in STATUS_VOUT.
4) Responds as specified in MFR_FAULT_RESPONSE.
5) Notifies the host using ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).
28
PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
1) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE, IOUT, and MFR bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the OC_WARN bit in STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC.
4) Notifies the host using ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).
IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT (4Ah)
The IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT command sets the value of the current that causes an overcurrent fault. The factory
default value for IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT is 0000h. This value disables the device from measuring current. Any nonzero
positive value written to IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT causes the device to enable current measurement. The 2 data bytes
are in DIRECT format. In response to violation of the IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT, the device does the following:
1) Sets the IOUT_OC bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the IOUT, IOUT_OC, and MFR bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the OC_FAULT bit in STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC.
4) Responds as specified in the MFR_FAULT_RESPONSE.

an overtemperature fault is detected. The 2 data bytes are in DIRECT format. In response to the OT_FAULT_LIMIT being
exceeded, the device does the following:
1) Sets the TEMPERATURE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the TEMPERATURE and MFR bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the OT_FAULT bit in STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC.

2) Sets the TEMPERATURE and MFR bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the OT_WARN bit in STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC.
4) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).
POWER_GOOD_ON (5Eh)
The POWER_GOOD_ON command sets the value of the output voltage that causes the PG output to assert. All enabled
power supplies must be above their associated POWER_GOOD_ON thresholds before the PG output is asserted.
All the enabled power supplies must also be above POWER_GOOD_ON for power-supply margining to begin. The
POWER_GOOD_ON level is normally set higher than the POWER_GOOD_OFF level and VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT. The

manner. This response is the worst-case response of the global channels for the given fault. Supplies that are not global
respond to a temperature fault based upon the programmed response for the particular supply.
Note 3: The fault response for a power-supply fault is determined by MFR_FAULT_RESPONSE for the faulting channel. If this
channel is part of a global group, this fault response is performed for all the global channels.

MFR_FAULT_RETRY (DAh)
The MFR_FAULT_RETRY command sets the delay time between a power supply being shut down by a fault response
and the power supply restarting. This command sets the retry time delay in multiples of 1ms. This command value is
used for all fault responses that require delay retry. If global supplies are being sequenced off, the retry delay time does
not begin until the last global channel is turned off. The 2 data bytes are in DIRECT format. When MFR_FAULT_RETRY
= 0000h, the device restarts the power supply at the next available time period.
MFR_NV_FAULT_LOG (DCh)
Each time the MFR_NV_FAULT_LOG command is executed, the device returns a block of 255 bytes containing one
of the 15 nonvolatile fault logs. The MFR_NV_FAULT_LOG command must be executed 15 times to dump the complete nonvolatile fault log. If the returned fault log is all FFs, this indicates that this fault log has not been written by the
device. As the device is operating, it is reading the latest operating conditions for voltage, current, and temperature,
and it is updating the status registers. All this information is stored in on-board RAM. When a fault is detected (if so
enabled in MFR_FAULT_RESPONSE), the device automatically logs this information to one of the 15 nonvolatile fault
logs. After 15 faults have been written, bit 0 of STATUS_CML is set and the host must clear the fault log by setting the
CLEAR_NV_FAULT_LOG bit in MFR_MODE before any additional faults are logged. All the latest status information is
logged as well as eight readings of voltage from the last 800ms in 100ms increments and four readings of current from
the last 800ms of operation. If a power supply is not enabled to measure either current or voltage or if a temperature
sensor is disabled, the associated fault log position returns 0000h.
There is a FAULT_LOG_COUNT (16-bit counter) at the beginning of each fault log that indicates which fault log is
the latest. This counter rolls over should more than 65,535 faults be logged. This counter is not cleared when the
CLEAR_NV_FAULT_LOG bit in MFR_MODE is toggled. The 255 bytes returned by the MFR_NV_FAULT_LOG command are described in Table 24.

PMBus 6-Channel Power-Supply Manager
MFR_TIME_COUNT (DDh)
The MFR_TIME_COUNT command returns the number of seconds the device has been operating since the last time
power was applied to the device, RST was toggled, or a soft reset occurred. The counter is a 32-bit value and cannot
be reset by the user.
MFR_MARGIN_CONFIG (E0h)
The MFR_MARGIN_CONFIG command configures the digital PWM outputs to margin the power supplies. The
MFR_MARGIN_CONFIG command is described in Table 25.
Power-supply margining is implemented using the PWM outputs. The PWM frequency is 62.5kHz. The device close-loop
controls the duty cycle to margin the power supply. The device provides 6 bits of duty-cycle resolution.
The device margins the power supplies when OPERATION is set to one of the margin states. Margining of the supplies does not begin until all enabled power supplies have exceeded their programmed POWER_GOOD_ON levels.
When this happens, the PWM output is enabled and the seed value from MFR_MARGIN_CONFIG is loaded as the
initial PWM duty cycle. The device then averages eight samples of VOUT for a total time of 40ms. If the measured
VOUT and the target (set by either VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH or VOUT_MARGIN_LOW) differ by more than 1%, the
PWM duty cycle is adjusted by one step. The direction of the duty cycle adjustment is determined by the SLOPE bit
in MFR_MARGIN_CONFIG. All changes to the PWM are made after averaging eight samples of VOUT over a 40ms
period.
The device is unable to successfully margin a power supply to the programmed target when the PWM duty cycle
reaches 0% or 100% and the target voltage has not been achieved. If this occurs, the device continues attempting to
margin the power supply and does the following:
1) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE and MFR bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the MARGIN_FAULT bit in STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC.
4) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).
Also, the averaged VOUT after the PWM has initially been enabled with the seed value is compared to the target value.
If the programmed seed value causes VOUT to exceed the target, a MARGIN_FAULT is declared. For example, if the
target is VOUT_MARGIN_LOW and VOUT is less than VOUT_MARGIN_LOW after seeding, MARGIN_FAULT is set. In
response to this fault, the device continues margining the power supply and does the following:
1) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE bit in STATUS_BYTE.
2) Sets the NONE OF THE ABOVE and MFR bits in STATUS_WORD.
3) Sets the MARGIN_FAULT bit in STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC.
4) Notifies the host through ALERT assertion (if enabled in MFR_MODE).

Applications Information
Power-Supply Decoupling
To achieve the best results when using the device,
decouple the VDD power supply with a 0.1FF capacitor.
Use a high-quality, ceramic, surface-mount capacitor
if possible. Surface-mount components minimize lead
inductance, which improves performance, and ceramic capacitors tend to have adequate high-frequency
response for decoupling applications.
Open-Drain Pins
MSDA, MSCL, SCL, SDA, FAULT, and ALERT are opendrain pins and require external pullup resistors connected to VDD to realize high logic levels.
PSEN0 to PSEN5 can be user-configured as either
CMOS push-pull or open-drain outputs. When configured as open-drain, external pullup resistors connected
to VDD are required to realize high logic levels (see the
MFR_MODE settings).
Decouple the REG25 and REG18 regulator outputs using
1FF and 10nF capacitors (one each per output).
Do not connect other circuitry to either of these pins.
