SLVUAW9C September 2016 – February 2020 UCD90320
| Term | Description | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| ACK | Acknowledge | Indicates that the PMBus has received the message correctly. |
| ADC | Analog-to-digital converter | Converts analog voltages to digital counts that may be used for monitoring or control. |
| DAC | Digital-to-analog converter | |
| DFlash | Data Flash memory | Nonvolatile memory used for storing PMBus settings. The values in DFlash are automatically copied to RAM during wakeup. |
| FPWM | Fast pulse width modulation pin | These pins are capable of a higher frequency than the other PWM pins. |
| GPI | General-purpose input | |
| GPIO | General-purpose input/output | |
| GPO | General-purpose output | |
| NACK | Non-acknowledge | An error has occurred in the PMBus message transfer. |
| PFlash | Program Flash memory | Nonvolatile memory used for the UCD90xxx main firmware. |
| PMBus | Power management bus | An open-standard protocol that defines a means of communicating with power conversion devices using an I2C physical interface. |
| PWM | Pulse width modulation or pulse width modulator | |
| RAM | Random access memory | Volatile memory used to hold PMBus settings and internal variables. PMBus settings are lost after a reset unless they are stored to Data Flash. |
| ROM | Read-only memory | Nonvolatile memory used for the UCD90xxx boot algorithms and some common data tables. |
