frequency and the duty cycle limit, that can only be
changed when the dPOL output is turned off.
Performance parameters of DP8105 dPOL
converters can be programmed via the industry
standard I2C communication bus. Each parameter
has a default value stored in the volatile memory
registers detailed in Table 1. The setup registers 00h
through 14h are programmed at the system power-
up. When the user programs new performance
parameters, they are stored in the DPM, which
overwrites the values in the registers With the new
data. Upon removal of the input voltage, the default
values are restored.

Output Voltage
The output voltage can be programmed in the GUI
Output Configuration window shown in Figure 11 or
directly via the I2C bus by writing into the VOS
register shown in Figure 12.
DP8105 converters can be programmed using the
Graphical User Interface or directly via the I2C bus by
using high and low level commands as described in
the "DPM Programming Manual".

Output Voltage Set-point
The output voltage programming range is from 0.7 V
to 5.5 V. The resolution is constant across the range
and is 2.5 mV. A Total of 3 registers are provided:
one should be used for the normal setpoint voltage;
the other two can be used to define a low/high
margining voltage setpoint. Note that each register is
16bit wide and that the high byte needs always to be
written / read first. The writing of the low byte triggers
the refresh of the whole 16bit register (the high byte
is written to a shadow register).

Unlike other configuration registers, the dPOL
controller's VOS registers are dynamic. Changes to
VOS values can be made while the output is enabled
over the I2C bus through register bypass commands
and the dPOL will change its output immediately.
