PRODUCTION DATA.
If Margin Low is enabled, load the value from the STEP_VREF_MARGIN_LOW command. If Margin High is enabled, load the value from the STEP_VREF_MARGIN_HIGH command.
VOUT_MARGIN_LOW data shall be equal to:
VOUT_COMMAND + (VREF_TRIM – STEP_VREF_MARGIN_LOW) / VOUT_SCALE_LOOP
VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH data shall be equal to:
VOUT_COMMAND + (VREF_TRIM + STEP_VREF_MARGIN_HIGH) / VOUT_SCALE_LOOP
For the Margin Low, Ignore Fault configuration (essentially [5:2] = 4’b0101), any incoming UV faults shall trigger the normal UVF status, and trigger SMB_ALERT (albeit the state machine response will be to ignore and not respond). If the desired response is to have the device to not trigger SMB_ALERT for UVF events when margining, they must set the UVF SMBALERT_MASK bit. For the Margin High, Ignore Fault configuration (essentially [5:2] = 4’b1001), any incoming OV faults shall trigger the normal OVF status, and trigger SMB_ALERT (albeit the state machine response will be to ignore and not respond). If the desired response is to have the device to not trigger SMB_ALERT for UVF events when margining, they must set the UVF SMBALERT_MASK bit. OVF and UVF can also be ignored when VOUT_COMMAND is the VOUT source by programming [5:2] to a value of 4’b0001. OVF and UVF events will still set status and trigger SMB_ALERT.
