PMBus COMMAND DETAILS
IIN_OC_WARN_LIMIT
The IIN_OC_WARN_LIMIT command sets the value of the input current, in amperes, that causes a warning indicating
the input current is high. The READ_IIN value will be used to determine if this limit has been exceeded.
In response to the IIN_OC_WARN_LIMIT being exceeded, the device:
• Sets the OTHER bit in the STATUS_BYTE
• Sets the INPUT bit in the upper byte of the STATUS_WORD
• Sets the IIN Overcurrent Warning bit in the STATUS_INPUT command, and
• Notifies the host by asserting ALERT pin
This condition is detected by the ADC so the response time may be up to 100ms.
This command has two data bytes and is formatted in Linear_5s_11s format.

IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT
The IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT command sets the value of the peak output current limit, in amperes. When the controller
is in current limit, the overcurrent detector will indicate an overcurrent fault condition. The programmed overcurrent
fault limit value is rounded up to the nearest one of the following set of discrete values:
