PMBus Command Description
MFR_FAULTBz0_PROPAGATE, MFR_FAULTBz1_PROPAGATE
These manufacturer specific commands enable channels that have faulted off to propagate that state to the appropri-
ate fault pin. Faulted off states for pages 0 through 3 can only be propagated to pins FAULTB00 and FAULTB01; this is
referred to as zone 0. Faulted off states for pages 4 through 7 can only be propagated to pins FAULTB10 and FAULTB11;
this is referred to as zone 1. The z designator in the command name is used to indicate that this command affects
different zones depending on the page. See Figure 19.
Note that pulling a fault pin low will have no effect for channels that have MFR_FAULTBzn_RESPONSE set to 0. The
channel continues operation without interruption. This fault response is called Ignore (0x0) in LTpowerPlay.
MFR_FAULTBz0_PROPAGATE Data Content
BIT(S) SYMBOL
OPERATION
b[7:1] Reserved
Don’t care. Always returns 0.
b[0] Mfr_faultbz0_propagate
Enable fault propagation.
For pages 0 through 3, zone 0
0: Channel’s faulted off state does not assert FAULTB00 low.
1: Channel’s faulted off state asserts FAULTB00 low.
For pages 4 through 7, zone 1
0: Channel’s faulted off state does not assert FAULTB10 low.
1: Channel’s faulted off state asserts FAULTB10 low.
MFR_FAULTBz1_PROPAGATE Data Content
BIT(S) SYMBOL
OPERATION
b[7:1] Reserved
Don’t care. Always returns 0.
b[0] Mfr_faultbz1_propagate
Enable fault propagation.
For pages 0 through 3, zone 0
0: Channel’s faulted off state does not assert FAULTB01 low.
1: Channel’s faulted off state asserts FAULTB01 low.
For pages 4 through 7, zone 1
0: Channel’s faulted off state does not assert FAULTB11 low.
1: Channel’s faulted off state asserts FAULTB11 low.
