COMMAND DETAILS
MFR_TEMP_1_OFFSET
The MFR_TEMP_1_OFFSET command will modify the offset of the external temperature sensor to account for non-
idealities in the element and errors associated with the remote sensing of the temperature in the inductor.
This command has two data bytes and is formatted in Linear_5s_11s format. The part starts the calculation with a
value of –273.15 so the default adjustment value is zero.
External Temperature Limits
COMMAND NAME CMD CODE DESCRIPTION TYPE DATA FORMAT UNITS NVM DEFAULT VALUE
OT_FAULT_LIMIT 0x4F External overtemperature fault limit. R/W Word L11 C Y 100.0 0xEB20
OT_WARN_LIMIT 0x51 External overtemperature warning limit. R/W Word L11 C Y 85.0 0xEAA8
UT_FAULT_LIMIT 0x53 External undertemperature fault limit. R/W Word L11 C Y –40.0 0xE580
OT_FAULT_LIMIT
The OT_FAULT_LIMIT command sets the value of the external sense temperature, in degrees Celsius, which causes an
overtemperature fault. The READ_TEMPERATURE_1 value will be used to determine if this limit has been exceeded.
This condition is detected by the ADC so the response time may be up to 120ms.
This command has two data bytes and is formatted in Linear_5s_11s format.
OT_WARN_LIMIT
The OT_WARN_LIMIT command sets the value of the external sense temperature, in degrees Celsius, which causes an
overtemperature warning. The READ_TEMPERATURE_1 value will be used to determine if this limit has been exceeded.
In response to the OT_WARN_LIMIT being exceeded, the device:
• Sets the TEMPERATURE bit in the STATUS_BYTE
• Sets the Overtemperature Warning bit in the STATUS_TEMPERATURE command, and
• Notifies the host by asserting ALERT pin.
This condition is detected
by the ADC so the response time may be up to 120ms.
This command has two data bytes and is formatted in Linear_5s_11s format.
UT_FAULT_LIMIT
The UT_FAULT_LIMIT command sets the value of the external sense temperature, in degrees Celsius, which causes
an undertemperature fault. The READ_TEMPERATURE_1 value will be used to determine if this limit has been
exceeded.
Note
:
If the temp sensors are not installed, the UT_FAULT_LIMIT can be set to –275°C and UT_FAULT_LIMIT response
set to ignore to avoid ALERT being asserted.
This condition is detected by the ADC so the response time may be up to 120ms.
This command has two data bytes and is formatted in Linear_5s_11s format.
