PRODUCTION DATA.
PMBus refers to a serial interface specifically designed to support power management. The PMBus interface is based on the SMBus interface that is built on the I2C physical specification. The UCD90320 device supports revision 1.2 of the PMBus standard. Wherever possible, standard PMBus interface commands support the function of the device. Unique features of the device are defined to configure or activate via the MFR_SPECIFIC commands. These commands are defined in the, UCD90320 Sequencer and System Health Controller PMBUS Command Reference. The most current UCD90320 PMBus™ Command Reference can be found within the TI Fusion Digital Power Designer software through the Help Menu (Help, Documentation & Help Center, Sequencers tab, Documentation section).
