QUEStionable The Questionable Status Register is a 16-bit register that stores information about Status questionable events or status during power supply operation. That is, bits in these

Register 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 sub-registers representing the status of the voltage and current, power and temperature.

Figure 4.2 gives an overview of the Questionable Status data structure. The “+” represents the logical summation of bits in a register. Table 4.7, Table 4.8, and Table

4.9describe the meanings of each bit as well as the bit number and bit weight.
