FIGURE 3-3: TEMPERATURE / VOLTAGE CONVERSION

PWSOTEMP* - This low true open collector output signals a power supply over-temperature condition. This fault condition occurs when the maximum internal temperature of the power supply is exceeded. This signal is pulled up to +5 V with a 4.7k resistor internally.

PWSOPWR* - This low true open collector output signals a power supply over-power condition. This fault will occur when more power is demanded from the power supply than it can provide. This signal is pulled up to +5 V with a 4.7k resistor internally.

PWSOVOLT* - This low true open collector output signals a power supply over-voltage condition. This fault occurs when one of the voltages produced by the power supply exceeds its maximum value. This signal is pulled up to +5 V with a 4.7k resistor internally.

PWSOCUR* - This low true open collector output signals a power supply over-current condition. This fault occurs when the maximum current of a voltage is exceeded. This signal is pulled up to +5 V with a 4.7k resistor internally.

AMBOTEMP* - This low true open collector output signals a power supply over-temperature condition. This fault occurs when the ambient air temperature exceeds 55 °C. This signal is pulled up to +5 V with a 4.7k resistor internally.
