Error Codes for Protections

When the device enters fault mode after triggering one or more protections, an error code is sent on the CDX pin. The error code tells about the protection which is triggered, enables quick debugs during the power supply design process and faster time to market for the users. Figure 7-14 shows the error codes sent on the CDX pin for each of the protections. When a protection is triggered, the corresponding error code is sent three times on the CDX pin. Additionally, a pin configure error code is generated when UCG2882x detects a configure pin is open, or a non-valid resistor is connected to the configure pin, or internal CRC error in memory occurs. If multiple protections are triggered, the output code includes multiple 1s (logic high) corresponding to the protections triggered.
