Overview

This reference manual describes the digital communication capabilities and PMBus command functionality for the Analog Devices LT7171 and LT7171-1 monolithic step-down regulators. It provides technical specifications for PMBus Revision 1.3.1 and SMBus Revision 3.1 compliance. The document includes a comprehensive command summary and detailed register descriptions for device addressing, write protection, PWM configuration, and operational settings. It covers parameters for input/output voltage limits, current limits, temperature monitoring, and sequencing timing, including TON_DELAY and TON_RISE. Users can find specific guidance on manufacturing-specific commands for channel and phase configuration.

Use Cases

  • Programming digital power management parameters
  • Configuring voltage and current limits via PMBus
  • Implementing I2C/SMBus communication in power systems
  • Setting up power-up sequencing and fault thresholds
  • Monitoring system telemetry and device status
