MFR_READ_IOUT Data Contents
BIT(S) SYMBOL OPERATION
b[15:0] Mfr_read_iout[15:0] Channel output current expressed in custom format for improved resolution at high currents.
Value = Y • 2.5 where Y = b[15:0] is a signed two’s-complement number.
Example:
MFR_READ_IOUT = 5mA
For b[15:0] = 0x0002
Value = 2 • 2.5 = 5mA
The granularity of the returned value is always 2.5mA, and the return value is limited to ±81.92A. Use the READ_IOUT
command for larger currents. Note that the accuracy of the returned value is always limited by the ADC Characteristics
listed in the Electrical Characteristics section.

MFR_IOUT_SENSE_VOLTAGE
This command returns the absolute value of the voltage measured between I
SENSEPn
and I
SENSEMn
during the last
READ_IOUT ADC conversion without any temperature correction.
MFR_IOUT_SENSE_VOLTAGE Data Contents
BIT(S) SYMBOL OPERATION
b[15:0] Mfr_iout_sense_voltage Absolute value of raw voltage conversion measured between I
SENSEPn
and I
SENSEMn
.
Value = Y • 0.025 • 2
–13
where Y = b[15:0] is an unsigned integer.
Example:
MFR_IOUT_SENSE_VOLTAGE = 1.544mV
For b[15:0] = 0x1FA=506
Value = 506 • 0.025 • 2
–13
= 1.544mV
