Hello,
We are experiencing the below issue:
- After the chips are configured, tried to turn on the voltage rails by writing OPERATION_ON and pull pin PMBUS_CTL high. The rails remain low.
- Checking the status registers, I got:
- STATUS_MFR_SPECIFIC: 0x80
- STATUS_WORD: 0x00c8
- STATUS_CML: 0x97
- Sending SOFTRESET does not help with the issue.
Could you please help me with these questions?
- Do the chips require an nRESET pulse to properly reset and start outputting?
- If not, would doing so have any negative effect?
- If a hard reset via nRESET is not viable, is there any timing constrain I need to follow to properly reset and start the chip?
Thank you,
Ryan B.
