The MAX15301 uses READ_TEMPERATURE_2 to report external temperature as measured by an
external diode junction, typically placed near the power inductor to facilitate
temperature compensation.
If no external diode junction is detected, READ_TEMPERATURE_2 returns a value of -273°C and is not
used for temperature faults or READ_IOUT temperature compensation.
can be used to adjust the diode ideality factor to
match that of the actual diode junction used for external temperature sensing and to add or remove
a fixed temperature offset for calibration purposes.

The READ_DUTY_CYCLE command returns an averaged measure of the pulse-width modulator output
value in percent. The duty-cycle value is averaged over 256 PWM cycles.
