VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH 
Description/Notes: 
See Section 13.6 of the PMBus Specification Part II. 
VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH mantissa data sent to and from the MAX15301 must be divided by 4096 to 
determine the actual voltage value, according to the fixed value of VOUT_MODE
. 
The factory value of 0x0001  (0.244mV) will be overridden during initialization  to 
VOUT_COMMAND
 x 1.05, unless a specific value has been written to the User Store. 
In the MAX15301, there are seven possible output voltage ranges based on seven corresponding 
internal feedback divider taps. The desired value of VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH is retained and read back 
from Operating Memory, regardless of hardware limitations imposed by the feedback divider range. 
If the MAX15301 is set for margin-high operation prior to the output being enabled, the output will 
rise directly to VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH at the rate determined by VOUT_COMMAND/TON_RISE
. 
Likewise, if the output is disabled from margin-
high operation, the output will fall at a rate 
determined by -VOUT_COMMAND/TOFF_FALL.

VOUT_MARGIN_LOW mantissa data sent to and from the MAX15301 must be divided by 4096 to 
determine the actual voltage value, according to the fixed value of VOUT_MODE
. 
The factory value of 0x0001 (0.244
V) will be overridden during initialization to 
VOUT_COMMAND x 0.95, unless a specific value has been written to the User Store. 
In the MAX15301, there are seven possible output 
voltage ranges based on seven corresponding 
internal feedback divider taps. The desired value of VOUT_MARGIN_LOW is retained and read back 
from Operating Memory, regardless of hardware limitations imposed by the feedback divider range. 
If the MAX15301 is set for margin-low operation prior to the output being enabled, the output will 
rise directly to VOUT_MARGIN_LOW at the rate determined by VOUT_COMMAND/TON_RISE
. 
Likewise, if the output is disabled from margin-low operation, the output will fall at a rate determined 
by -VOUT_COMMAND/
TOFF_FALL.
