03 CLEAR_FAULTS
Clear any fault bits that may have been set, also releases the SMBALERT# signal
if the device has been asserting it.
10 WRITE_PROTECT
Used to control writing to the module via PMBus. Copies the current register
setting in the module whose command code matches the value in the data byte
into non-volatile memory (EEPROM) on the module
