PRODUCTION DATA
STATUS_BYTE is shown in Figure 7-47 and described in Table 7-67.
Return to the Summary Table.
Write Transaction: N/A
Read Transaction: Read Byte
Data Format: unsigned binary (1 byte)
NVM Back-up: No
Updates: N/A The STATUS_BYTE command returns one byte of information with a summary of the most critical faults, including overvoltage, overcurrent and overtemperature. The following table describes the bits the device supports in STATUS_BYTE. In the event of a fault or warning, the bits in STATUS_BYTE are asserted to indicate which other status registers should be checked for further information. The bits in STATUS_BYTE cannot be cleared through writes to STATUS_BYTE. Instead, clearing the bits must be done in through writes to the other corresponding status registers. Data Validity: Attempts to write STATUS_BYTE are considered as invalid data or unsupported data (ivd) and the device responds as described in the IVD bit in STATUS_CML.

| Bit | Field | Type | Reset | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7 | RESERVED | R | 0h | |
| 6 | STS_OFF | R | 1h | LIVE (unlatched) status bit, indicating if the device output is disabled.
|
| 5 | STS_OVF | R | 0h | This bit indicates if an output overvoltage fault has occurred. This bit directly reflects the state of STATUS_VOUT[7] - OVF.
|
| 4 | STS_OCF | R | 0h | This bit indicates if an output overcurrent fault has occurred. It directly reflects the state of STATUS_IOUT[7] - OCF.
|
| 3 | RESERVED | R | 0h | |
| 2 | STS_OTFW | R | 0h | This bit indicates if an overtemperature fault or warning has occurred. It is an OR of the OTF_PROG and OTW_PROG bits located at STATUS_TEMPERATURE[7:6].
|
| 1 | STS_CML | R | 0h | This bit indicates that a communications, memory or logic fault has occurred in STATUS_CML.
|
| 0 | STS_MISC | R | 1h | This bit is used to flag faults and warnings not covered with the other bits in STATUS_BYTE.
