COMP_MODEL 
Reference: 
Maxim Specific 
Lockable: 
Yes 
Command Code: 
0xDB 
Format: 
Linear 
Data Bytes: 
6 (see Description) 
Units: 
Scalar 
Transfer: 
Read/Write Block 
Factory Value: 
0.03167, 0.5, 0.5 
Description/Notes: 
The COMP_MODEL command provides access to key control loop tuning parameters. The three 
arguments are as follows: 
Data Byte 
Number 
Data Byte 
Name  Units  Description 
0  F
LC
/F
SW
  None 
Power stage LC double-pole frequency, as a fraction of the 
PWM fundamental frequency. In typical operation, this 
parameter is determined by parametric extraction.  
1  F
Z
/F
SW
  None 
Output capacitor ESR zero frequency, as a fraction of the PWM 
fundamental frequency. 
2  Z
LC
  None 
Power stage damping factor. Higher values indicate a more 
damped LC filter; lower values represent a less damped filter. 
The values of COMP_MODEL can be altered by the parametric extraction function of the MAX15301. 
The
y will reset to the USER store values whenever the output is disabled, unless bit 3 of 
ADAPTIVE_MODE is cleared. 
Note that the values in COMP_MODEL are not saved during a STORE_USER_ALL  or 
STORE_DEFAULT_ALL 
operation, unless the values have previously been set by a PMBus write to 
COMP_MODEL, as indicated by bit 14 of STRAP_DISABLE. 
This safety feature prevents inadvertent 
storage of parametric extraction results that could adversely affect the initial ramp control loop tuning. 
Wait at least 500μs for execution after sending the COMP_MODEL command before sending additional 
PMBus commands. 
DEADTIME_GCTRL 
Reference: 
Maxim Specific 
Lockable: 
Yes 
Command Code: 
0xE7 
Format: 
See Description 
Data Bytes: 
19 
Units: 
N/A 
Transfer: 
Read/Write Block 
Factory Value: 
See Description 
Description/Notes: 
The DEADTIME_GCTRL command allows configuration of the Adaptive Gate-Drive timing system (AGD), 
adjustment of static gate-drive  timing,  and  adjustment of the variable gate-drive voltage system. The 
arguments for this command are as follows:
