Digital power controller
Fault handler
𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑒𝑠ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑑 = 𝑓𝑎𝑢𝑙𝑡_𝑚𝑓𝑟_𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑡_𝑜𝑐_𝑓𝑎𝑠𝑡_𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑒𝑠ℎ − 𝑓𝑎𝑢𝑙𝑡_𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑡_𝑜𝑐_𝑓𝑎𝑢𝑙𝑡_ℎ𝑦𝑠𝑡
(9.11)
The samples for the fast overcurrent fault do not need to be consecutive, but a single sample below the value in
Equation (9.11) will reset the count and deassert the fault. The register
fault_mfr_iout_oc_fast_thresh
is
computed by FW based on PMBus command MFR_IOUT_OC_FAST_FAULT_LIMIT.
Output undercurrent fault
The output undercurrent fault is asserted when the filtered telemetry output in register
tlmX_iout_fsw
drops
below the fault threshold (
fault_iout_uc_fault_thresh
) for the number of samples (
fault_iout_uc_fault_cnt
)
without exceeding the threshold defined in Equation (9.12) (fault_iout_uc_fault_
fault_iout_uc_fault_hyst).
𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑒𝑠ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑑 = 𝑓𝑎𝑢𝑙𝑡_𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑡_𝑢𝑐_𝑓𝑎𝑢𝑙𝑡_𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑒𝑠ℎ + 𝑓𝑎𝑢𝑙𝑡_𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑡_𝑢𝑐_𝑓𝑎𝑢𝑙𝑡_ℎ𝑦𝑠𝑡
(9.12)
The samples for the undercurrent fault do not need to be consecutive, but a single sample above the value in
Equation (9.12) will reset the count and deassert the fault. The register
fault_iout_uc_fault_thresh
is
computed by FW based on PMBus command IOUT_UC_FAULT_LIMIT.
Output current fault-related PMBus commands
The output current faults and warnings are reported on the following PMBus commands:
•
STATUS_BYTE
•
STATUS_WORD
•
STATUS_IOUT
•
STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC
It should be noted that the IOUT_OC_FAULT will remain asserted in the PMBus STATUS commands until
IOUT_OC_WARNING is deasserted. The XDPP1100 response to output current faults is programmed through the
PMBus commands:
•
IOUT_OC_FAULT_RESPONSE
•
MFR_IOUT_OC_FAST_FAULT_RESPONSE
•
IOUT_UC_FAULT_RESPONSE
The time unit for the delay portion of the output current RESPONSE commands is defined by PMBus command
FW_CONFIG_FAULTS bits [3:2]. All of these PMBus commands and their programming are described in
Output overcurrent low-voltage fault
The XDPP1100 supports the current-limiting fault response to the following overcurrent faults:
•
IOUT_OC_FAULT
•
MFR_IOUT_OC_FAST_FAULT
In this mode, the XDPP1100 attempts to continue operation while maintaining the output current at
IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT by reducing the output voltage. If the output voltage drops below the threshold
defined by register
fault_iout_oc_lv_fault_thresh
, IOUT_OC_LV_FAULT is declared.
