The port status register (Table 13a) records the results of
the detection and classification at the end of each phase in
three encoding bits each. R0Ch contains the detection
and classification status of port 1. R0Dh corresponds to
port 2, R0Eh corresponds to port 3, and R0Fh corresponds
to port 4. Tables 13b and 13c show the detection/classifi-
cation result decoding charts, respectively. For CLC_EN =
0, the detection result is shown in Table 13b. When
CLC_EN is set high, the MAX5965A/MAX5965B allow valid
detection of high capacitive load of up to 150µF.
When 2-event classification is not enabled (ENx_CL6 =
0), the classification status is reported in Table 13c.
When 2-event classification is enabled (ENx_CL6 = 1),
the CLASS_[2:0] bits are set to 000 and the classifica-
tion result is reported in locations R2Ch–R2Fh.
As a protection, when POFF_CL (R17h[3], Table 21) is
set to 1, the MAX5965A/MAX5965B prohibit turning on
power to the port that returns a status 111 after classifi-
cation. A reset sets 0Ch, 0Dh, 0Eh, and 0Fh = 00h.
