System Managers with Nonvolatile Fault Registers
Faults
The MAX16047A/MAX16049A monitor the input (MON_)
channels and compare the results with an overvoltage
threshold, an undervoltage threshold, and a selectable
overvoltage or undervoltage early warning threshold.
Based on these conditions, the MAX16047A/
MAX16049A can assert various fault outputs and save
specific information about the channel conditions and
voltages into the nonvolatile EEPROM. Once a critical
fault event occurs, the failing channel condition, ADC
conversions at the time of the fault, or both may be
saved by configuring the event logger. The event log-
ger records a single failure in the internal EEPROM and
sets a lock bit which protects the stored fault data from
accidental erasure on a subsequent power-up.
The MAX16047A/MAX16049A are capable of measur-
ing overvoltage and undervoltage fault events. Fault
conditions are detected at the end of each ADC con-
version. An overvoltage event occurs when the voltage

at a monitored input exceeds the overvoltage threshold
for that input. An undervoltage fault occurs when the
voltage at a monitored input falls below the undervolt-
age threshold. Fault thresholds are set in registers r23h
to r46h as shown in Table 15. Disabled inputs are not
monitored for fault conditions and are skipped over by
the input multiplexer. Only the upper 8 bits of a conver-
sion result are compared with the programmed fault
thresholds. Inputs not assigned to a sequencing slot
are not monitored for fault conditions but are still
recorded in the ADC results registers.
The general-purpose inputs/outputs (GPIO1–GPIO6)
can be configured as Any_Fault outputs or dedicated
FAULT1 and FAULT2 outputs to indicate fault condi-
tions. These fault outputs are not masked by the critical
fault enable bits shown in Table 17. See the General-
Purpose Inputs/Outputs section for more information on
configuring GPIOs as fault outputs.
