Unsupported bits are indicated above. A one indicates a fault.
The reverse operation bit, if asserted, indicates that the BCM is
processing current in reverse. Reverse current reported value is
not supported.
STATUS_TEMPERATURE (7Dh)
The BCM has hardware protections and supervisory limits. The
hardware protections provide an additional layer of protection
and have the fastest response time. The Hardware Protections
Shutdown Fault, when asserted, indicates that at least one of the
powertrain protection faults is triggered. This fault will also be
asserted if a disabled fault event occurs after asserting any bit using
the DISABLE_FAULTS COMMAND.

The BCM UART is designed to operate with the controller UART.
If the BCM UART CML is asserted, it may indicate a hardware or

When the PAGE COMMAND (00h) data byte is equal to (00h), the
BCM Reverse operation, Analog Controller Shutdown Fault, and
BCM UART CML bit will return the result of the active BCM. The
BCM UART CML will also be asserted if the active BCM
stops responding. The BCM must communicate at least once
to the internal controller in order to trigger this FAULT. The
BCM UART CML can be cleared using the PAGE (00h) CLEAR_
FAULTS (03h) Command.

Unsupported bits are indicated above. A one indicates a fault.
The STATUS_CML data byte will be asserted when an unsupported
