PMBus COMMAND DETAILS
PAGE
The PAGE command provides the ability to configure, control and monitor both PWM channels through only one
physical address, either the MFR_ADDRESS or GLOBAL device address. Each PAGE contains the operating memory
for one PWM channel.
Pages 0x00 and 0x01 correspond to Channel 0 and Channel 1, respectively, in this device.
Setting PAGE to 0xFF applies any following paged commands to both outputs. With PAGE set to 0xFF the LTC3882-1
will respond to read commands as if PAGE were set to 0x00 (Channel 0 results).
This command has one data byte.
PAGE_PLUS_WRITE
The PAGE_PLUS_WRITE command provides a way to set the page within a device, send a command and then send
the data for the command, all in one communication packet. Commands allowed by the present write protection level
may be sent with PAGE_PLUS_WRITE.
The value stored in the PAGE command is not affected by PAGE_PLUS_WRITE. If PAGE_PLUS_WRITE is used to send
a non-paged command, the Page Number byte is ignored.
This command uses Write Block protocol. An example of the PAGE_PLUS_WRITE command with PEC sending a com-
mand that has two data bytes is shown in Figure 49.
