          Sorry I'm a little confused:
          You mean I should use a function for example
"create_buck_table()" to create the BUCK voltage table?
           such as:
           void create_buck_table()
           {
                   if (voltage < 1587500) {
                             /* initialize the BUCK_table */
                   } else
                             /* initialize the BUCK_table */
           }

          thanks;
