TOFF_DELAY
The TOFF_DELAY command sets the time, in milliseconds, from when a stop condition is received until the output
voltage starts to fall. Values from 0 to 83 seconds are valid.
This command is excluded from fault events.
This command has two data bytes and is formatted in Linear_5s_11s format.
TOFF_FALL
The TOFF_FALL command sets the time, in milliseconds, from the end of the turn-off delay time until the output volt
-
age is commanded to zero. It is the ramp time of the V
OUT
DAC. When the V
OUT
DAC is zero, the part will three-state.
The part will maintain the mode of operation programmed. For defined TOFF_FALL times, the user should set the part
to continuous conduction mode. Loading the max value indicates the part will ramp down at the slowest possible rate.
The minimum supported fall time is 0.25ms. A value less than 0.25ms will result in a 0.25ms ramp. The maximum fall
time is 1.3 seconds. The maximum allowed slope is 4V/ms.
In discontinuous conduction mode, the controller will not draw current from the load and the fall time will be set by
the output capacitance and load current.
This command has two data bytes and is formatted in Linear_5s_11s format.
TOFF_MAX_WARN_LIMIT
The TOFF_MAX_WARN_LIMIT command sets the value, in milliseconds, on how long the unit can attempt to turn off
the output until a warning is asserted. The output is considered off when the V
OUT
voltage is less than 12.5% of the
programmed VOUT_COMMAND value. The calculation begins after TOFF_FALL is complete. TOFF_MAX_WARN is not
enabled in VOUT_DECAY is disabled.
A data value of 0ms means that there is no limit and that the unit can attempt to turn off the output voltage indefinitely.
Other than 0, values from 120ms to 524 seconds are valid.
This command has two data bytes and is formatted in Linear_5s_11s format.
