UCD90320: Are there commands or modes to simulate fault conditions?

Jorge Inocencio

Part Number: UCD90320

Tool/software:

For the UCD90320 and other power monitoring devices, are there commands or modes to simulate fault conditions? This would be very helpful for on-board troubleshooting and development and it would help confirm the power monitor configuration and behavior.

You can manually change the fault threshold to trigger a fault.

There is no dedicated commands to simulate the fault.

Yes thank you, I am aware of that option, but manually changing the fault threshold is quite slow I was hoping that there would be a 'debug' or 'simulation' mode to help with this.

Thank you for the suggestion. It can be a good feature for the future products.
