Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS65982

Hi Team,

My customer considers to use TPS65982 for tablet application that isn't Alpine Ridge system.
He wants to control firmware version and it is necessary that end customer (users) can see it on Windows OS.

Do yo have any good method to achive above?
I believe he should use 0x06 register (customer use) but my customer thinks end customer can't access the register arbitrarily.

Best Regards,
Yaita

    You are right. The "customer use" register, address 0x06, would be a good place for your customer to create their own version number based on the actual firmware version and their configuration settings. But, the only way for this register to be read is using the I2C host interface to read the register. (It is the same for all registers.) So the a processor connected to the TPS565982 would have to read the register and pass it to Windows for display.
