The device also: • Sets the IOUT_OC Bit in the STATUS_BYTE • Sets the IOUT Bit in the STATUS_WORD • Sets the IOUT Overcurrent Fault Bit in the STATUS_IOUT Command • Notifies the Host by Asserting ALERT, Unless Masked Output overcurrent faults are ignored during turn-on and turn-off output transitions.

[5:3] Retry setting. 000-110 The LTC3888-1 does not attempt to restart. The output remains disabled until the fault is cleared, the device is commanded off and then on, or IC supply power is cycled. 111 The LTC3888-1 attempts to restart continuously without limitation with an interval set by MFR_RETRY_DELAY. This response persists until the unit is commanded off, IC supply power is removed, or another fault response forces shutdown without retry. [2:0] Delay time. xxx Response delay time in 16ms increments. This delay time determines how long the fault may have to persist before the controller is disabled, depending on bits [7:6]. These bits always return zero if bits [7:6]. This command has one data byte.
