6.4.6.4 Programming VSEL\FB

When MSEL1 selects internal divider, the VSEL\FB pin behaves as VSEL. The resistor for VSEL programs the VOUT, VOSL, NRSA, VOUT_MIN, and VOUT_MAX as in the table below. VBOOT is VBOOT_OFFSET_1 and VOSL is VOUT_SCALE_LOOP. NRSA is derived from VOSL (NRSA = 1/VOSL). The value from VSEL can be overridden with the OVRD_VSEL bit in PIN_DETECT_OVERRIDE.

When MSEL1 selects external divider, the VSEL\FB pin behaves as FB, where the VBOOT is the NVM value with a default of 0.4V and VOSL of 1.0.

The VOUT and VFB voltages listed in this table do not include any offset programmed by (22h) VOUT_TRIM. Check the default value of (22h) VOUT_TRIM in Supported PMBus® Commands for any offset applied to VOUT.

In a multi-device stack, followers must use a VSEL resistor to select the appropriate VOUT_SCALE_LOOP value for the output voltage. If the primary device is using an internal divider, selecting the same VSEL resistor as the primary. If the primary device is using an external divider, select the VSEL resistor with the lowest VOUT_MAX greater than the maximum expected output voltage
