PRODUCTION DATA.
The IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT command sets the value of the output current, in amperes, that causes the overcurrent detector to indicate an overcurrent warning. When this current level is exceeded the device:
The IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT threshold should always be set to less than or equal to the IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT. Writing a value to IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT greater than IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT causes the device to set the CML bit in the STATUS_BYTE and the invalid data (ivd) bit in the STATUS_CML registers as well as assert the SMBALERT signal. In such case, the register content will remain unchanged. This behavior can be overridden by the user setting Data Limit Override (DLO) in MFR_SPECIFIC_21[4].
The default IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT is always set to 87.5% of the OCF value. Because the IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT is not stored in EEPROM, the IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT register is set to 12.5% less than the stored OCF threshold upon any RESTORE from EEPROM (reset_restore, or RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL command). The digital math to achieve this is: OCW_default = (OCF – OCF/8).
The IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT takes a two byte data word formatted as shown below:
