Digital Voltage Monitoring and
Power-Good Outputs
The voltage at the load (MON_ inputs) is sampled by
the internal ADC. The MON_ full-scale voltage for each
channel can be set to 16V, 8V, 4V, or 2V by writing to
register mon_range. The default range is 16V (Tables
17 and 18).
The most recent voltage conversion results can be read
from the adc_chx_mon_h and adc_chx_mon_l registers
(see Tables 19 and 20).
