mode. When DET_BY is set to 1 however, the MAX5971B
can power the port without doing the detection routine.
AC_TH[2:0] (R23h[2:0]) allows direct programming of
the AC disconnect threshold. The threshold is defined
as a current since the comparator verifies that the peak
current pulses sensed at the DET input exceeds a preset
threshold. The current threshold is defined as follows:

I

AC_TH

= 85.28FA + 10.64FA x N

AC_TH

where N

AC_TH

is the decimal value of AC_TH[2:0]. The

default N

AC_TH

is 4 (AC_TH[2:0] = 100) which corre-

sponds to a default I

AC_TH

of ~128FA.

PWM Register (R24h)

The PWM register (R24h, Table 33) is used to program
the PWM duty cycle. On a power-up or after a reset
condition, this register is set to a default value of 0x00h.
PWM_TH[1:0] (R24h[5:4]) is used to set the PWM duty
cycle. The default PWM_TH[1:0] value of 00 corresponds
to a 6.25% duty cycle, while the maximum PWM_TH[1:0]
value of 11 corresponds to a 25% duty cycle (see Table 34).
