MSP PMBus Library Users Guide

The Power Management Bus (PMBus) is an industry-wide standard that can be viewed as a step toward unifying communication standards for power conversion and digital power-management devices. It was developed by the PMBus Implementers Forum (PMBus-IF). The standard uses the widely accepted Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) communication protocol for the hardware interface. A number of additional features serve to enhance the basic I2C communication protocol. The PMBus standard is also considered to be an extension to the System Management Bus (SMBus) protocol that was popularized by the SBS Implementers Forum for battery systems.
This document serves as a guide to Texas Instruments implementation of the PMBus master protocol on MSP430™ microcontroller.
