After entering the Current Adjust mode, the system controller can sends 7-bit Current Adjust code to 16-bit Shift
Register through MBI5029 SDI pin. Then sending LE/MOD/CA active pulse will transfer the contents in the Shift
Register to a 16-bit Configuration Latch rather than the 16-bit Output Latch in a Normal mode. The 7-bit Current
Adjust code in the Configuration Latch will directly affect the voltage at R-EXT terminal and output current Iout,target
by the current gain, G. The relationship between the Current Adjust Code {HC, CC〔0:5〕}and current gain G is
shown below:
G = [(1 + 2 x HC)/3]x [(1 + D/32)/3]
where HC is 1 or 0 (HC=0 : Low current band; HC=1 : High current band) and
