Data Bytes: 
0 
Units: 
N/A 
Transfer: 
Send Byte 
Factory Value: 
N/A 
Description/Notes: 
See Section 11.3 of the PMBus Specification Part II. 
The  MAX15303  includes three banks of nonvolatile (flash memory) storage for most “writable” 
PMBus command values, referred to as the USER, DEFAULT, and MAXIM stores. These stores are fully 
independent, but identical in structure. 
The DEFAULT store is intended to function as a backup of an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) 
preferred device configuration. 
The contents of the DEFAULT store are  only 
loaded into working memory when the 
RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL  command is sent; there are no other conditions or actions that result in 
loading of the DEFAULT store to working memory. 
Wait at least 10ms for execution after sending the RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL command before sending 
additional PMBus commands. 
See STORE_DEFAULT_ALL
 for exceptions to PMBus nonvolatile command storage.

Description/Notes: 
See Section 11.6 of the PMBus Specification Part II. 
The  MAX15303  includes three banks of nonvolatile (flash memory) storage for most “writable” 
PMBus command values, referred to as the USER, DEFAULT, and MAXIM stores. These stores are fully 
independent, but identical in structure. 
The USER store functions as the primary nonvolatile storage of all PMBus command values. Original 
equipment manufacturers (OEMs) should save  identical configurations to the USER store and the 
DEFAULT store, such that the USER store can be refreshed from the DEFAULT store if needed. 
The contents of the USER store are loaded into working memory every time input power is applied to 
the MAX15303 device. The USER store can also be loaded to working memory at any time by sending 
the RESTORE_USER_ALL
 command. 
In general, when the STORE_USER_ALL command is sent, the existing contents of the USER store are 
erased, and the contents of the working PMBus memory (volatile RAM) are written into the USER 
store. There are exceptions to this behavior, as follows: 
OPERATION
  The OPERATION command is not stored to prevent unintentional 
enabling/disabling of the output. 
COMP_MODEL  The working memory COMP_MODEL data is only stored if the 
command has been edited (as recorded by STRAP_DISABLE). 
MANUF_CONF  The manufacturer flags for password command locking are stored
