Data Bytes: 1 Units: N/A
Transfer: Read Byte Factory Value: 0x22 (see Description)

Note that due to a typographical error in the PMBus Specification version 1.2, wherein bit #4 is
omitted from the PMBUS_REVISION data byte, the Maxim interpretation is to correct this error and
include bit #4, placing the Part I Revision level in bits [7:4] and the Part II Revision level in bits [3:0].
e
Bits [7:4] describe the PMBus specification Part I revision level as follows:
0000 Revision 1.0
0001 Revision 1.1
0010 Revision 1.2
Bits [3:0] describe the PMBus specification Part II revision level as follows:

space.
e See the PMBus Specification, Part II, draft version 1.3, where this error is corrected to agree with the interpretation
described here.
