Vout_Command (21h) :
This command is used to change the
output voltage of the power supply. Changing the output 
voltage should be performed simultaneously to all power 
supplies operating in parallel using the Global Address 
(Broadcast) feature. If only a single power supply is instructed 
to change its output, it may attempt to source all the required 
power which can cause either a power limit or shutdown 
condition. 
Software programming of output voltage overrides the set 
point voltage configured during power_up. The program no 
longer looks at the ‘margin pin’ and will not respond to any 
hardware voltage setting. The default state cannot be 
accessed any longer unless power is removed from the DSP. 
To properly hot-plug a power supply into a live backplane, the 
system generated voltage should get re-configured into either 
the factory adjusted firmware level or the voltage level 
reconfigured by the margin pin. Otherwise, the voltage state 
of the plugged in power supply could be significantly different 
than the powered system.

A voltage programming example: The task: set the output 
voltage to 50.45V
DC
The constants for voltage programming are: m = 400, b and R
= 0. Multiply the desired set point by the m constant, 50.45 x 
400 = 20,180. Convert this binary number to its hex equivalent: 
20,180b = 4ED4h. Transmit the data LSB first, followed by MSB, 
0 x D44Eh.
Vout_OV_fault_limit (40h) :
This command sets the Output
Overvoltage Shutdown level.
Manufacturer-Specific PMBus
TM
Commands
Many of the manufacturer-specific commands read back more
than two bytes
.
If more than two bytes of data are returned,
the standard SMBus
TM
Block read is utilized. In this process, the
Master issues a Write command followed by the data transfer 
from the power supply. The first byte of the Block Read data 
field sends back in hex format the number of data bytes, 
exclusive of the PEC number, that follows. Analog data is 
always transmitted LSB followed by MSB. A No-ack following 
the PEC byte signifies that the transmission is complete and is 
being terminated by the ‘host’.
Read_status (D0h) :
This ‘manufacturer specific’ command is
the basic read back returning STATUS and ALARM register 
data, output voltage, output current, and internal temperature 
data in a single read.

Status and alarm registers
The content and partitioning of these registers is significantly 
different than the standard register set in the PMBus™ 
specification. More information is provided by these registers 
and they are accessed rapidly, at once, using the ‘multi 
parameter’ read back scheme of this document. There are a 
total of four registers. All errors, 0 – normal, 1 – alarm.

Isolation test failed:
The ‘system controller’ has to determine
that sufficient capacity exists in the system to take a power 
supply ‘off line’ in order to test its isolation capability. Since the 
power supply cannot determine whether sufficient redundancy 
is available, the results of this test are provided, but the 
‘internal fault’ flag is not set.

Power Delivery:
The power supply compares its internal

pin. If the difference is > 10A, a fault is issued.
