An overcurrent threshold is set by programming the Current Over-Limit Threshold register (COL). The value that

must be programmed into this register is calculated by dividing the overcurrent limit value by the current LSB

size. For this example, the target value for the COL register is 2A ÷ 190μA = 10526d (291Eh).

An overvoltage fault threshold on the bus voltage is set by programming the bus overvoltage limit register

(BOVL). In this example the desired overvoltage threshold is 14V. The value that must be programmed into this

For this example, the target value for the BOVL register is 14V ÷ 3.125mV = 4480d (1180h).

When setting the power over-limit value, the LSB size used to calculate the value needed in the limit registers is

256 times greater than the power LSB. This is because the power register is a 24 bits in length while the power

fault limit register is 16 bits. The LSB value to use for setting the over-power fault limit is 9.728mW.

Values stored in the alert limit registers are set to the default values after VS power cycle events and must be

reprogrammed each time power is applied.

7.2.2.3 Calculate Returned Values

Parametric values are calculated by multiplying the returned value by the LSB value. Table 7-4 shows the

returned values for this application example, assuming the design requirements shown in Table 7-3.

Current, Bus Voltage (positive only), Charge, and Temperature return values in 2's-complement format. In

2's-complement format a negative value in binary is represented by having a 1 in the most significant bit of the

returned value. These values can be converted to decimal by first inverting all the bits and adding 1 to obtain the

unsigned binary value. This value can then be converted to decimal with the negative sign applied. For example,

assume a current reading returns 1011 0100 0001 0000. This is a negative value due to the MSB having a value

of one. Inverting the bits and adding one results in 0100 1011 1111 0000 (19440d) which is current value of

3.6936A. The returned value is negative, therefore the measured current value is –3.6936A.
