Note 1: Communication failure is one of following faults: host sends too
few bits, host reads too few bits, host writes too few bytes, host reads too
many bytes, improper R/W bit set, unsupported command code, attempt
to write to a read-only command. See PMBus Specification v1.2, Part II,
Sections 10.8 and 10.9 for more information.
Note 2: Power may be off due to any one of the following conditions:
RUN_STBY low, OPERATION ON cleared, PVIN undervoltage or
overtemperature warning. When the power is off due to RUN_MSTR
low or due to a more serious fault conditions such as VIN low or
overtemperature fault, the PMBus interface is turned off instead of
asserting the OFF bit.
Note 3: This bit is disabled when drivers are off for any reason, soft-start
not complete, or the VOUT has not reached the PGOOD window for the first
time.
