QUEStionable Status Register
The Questionable Status Register is a 16-bit register that stores information about
questionable events or status during power supply operation. That is, bits in these
registers may indicate that the output of the supply is of undesirable or
questionable quality.
The Questionable Status data structure consists of a questionable status register
and 4 sub-registers representing the status of the voltage, current, power outputs
and temperature.
Figure 4-5 gives an overview of the Questionable Status data structure. The “+”
represents the logical summation of bits in a register. Table 4-15, Table 4-16,
Table 4-17, Table 4-18, and Table 4-19, describe the meanings of each bit as well
as the bit number and bit weight.
