UT_FAULT_LIMIT
The UT_FAULT_LIMIT command sets the value of sensed external temperature, in degrees Celsius, which causes an
undertemperature fault.
This command has two data bytes in Linear_5s_11s format.
STATUS_BYTE
The STATUS_BYTE command returns a one-byte summary of the most critical faults.
STATUS_BYTE Message Contents:
BIT
STATUS BIT NAME
MEANING
7*
BUSY
A fault was declared because the LTC3882-1 was unable to respond.
6
OFF
This bit is set if the channel is not providing power to its output, regardless of the reason, including simply not
being enabled.
5
VOUT_OV
An output overvoltage fault has occurred.
4
IOUT_OC
An output overcurrent fault has occurred.
3
VIN_UV
Not supported (LTC3882-1 returns 0).
2
TEMPERATURE
A temperature fault or warning has occurred.
1
CML
A communications, memory or logic fault has occurred.
0*
NONE OF THE ABOVE A fault Not listed in bits[7:1] has occurred.
*
ALERT
can be asserted if either of these bits is set. They may be cleared by writing a 1 to their bit position in the STATUS_BYTE, in lieu of a CLEAR_FAULTS
command.
This command has one data byte.
