Guess I need to dig up my eval board and see if I can reproduce the problem.
Seems you are saying that the problem is always seen when issuing a sequence
of "clear faults" commands on multiple pages ?

Yeah. We're also seeing bad behaviour under other command sequences as well,
which lead to this hack of a work-around patch[1].

I'd be very interested in the results of testing against the eval board. I
don't have access to one and it seems Maxim have discontinued them.


Do you have a somewhat reliable means to reproduce the problem ?
