The Source Voltage registers store the voltage measured at the SENSE+ pin (see Section 4.1.2,
"Voltage Measurement") as a digital value, VSOURCE, consisting of a high byte and low byte with five
of its LSBs always zero.
The measured voltage is determined by summing the bit weights of each bit set. For example, if VBUS
was 7.4V, the Source Voltage registers would read 0100_1110 for the high byte and 1100_0000b for
the low byte corresponding to 6V + 0.75V + 0.375V + 0.1875V + 0.0469V + 0.0234V = 7.383V.
The bit weightings are assigned for human interpretation. They should be disregarded when translating
the information via a computing system as shown in Section 4.1.2, "Voltage Measurement".
The Source Voltage registers cannot support negative values, and all values less than 0V will be
recorded as 0V.

The Power Ratio registers store a power factor value that is used to determine the final average power
delivered to the system (see Section 4.1.3, "Power Calculation"). The power factor value is the result
of the multiplication of the VSENSE reading and the VSOURCE reading values shifted to a 16-bit number.
It represents the ratio of delivered power with respect to maximum power.
