•

Registers CONFIG, OTCDAC, and FSOTCDAC are

refreshed from EEPROM.

•

Registers ODAC and FSODAC are refreshed from

the temperature indexed EEPROM locations.

Calibration Operation, Registers Updated by Serial

Communications

•

The MAX1452 has not had the Secure-Lock byte

set (CL[7:0] = 00hex) or UNLOCK is high.

•

Power is applied to the device.

•

The power-on-reset functions have completed.

•

The registers can then be loaded from the serial

digital interface by use of serial commands. See the

section on Serial I/O and Commands.

Internal EEPROM

The internal EEPROM is organized as a 768 by 8-bit

memory. It is divided into 12 pages, with 64 bytes per

page. Each page can be individually erased. The mem-

ory structure is arranged as shown in Table 1. The look-

up tables for ODAC and FSODAC are also shown, with

the respective temp-index pointer. Note that the ODAC

table occupies a continuous segment, from address

000hex to address 15Fhex, whereas the FSODAC table

is divided in two parts, from 200hex to 2FFhex, and

from 1A0hex to 1FFhex. With the exception of the gen-

eral purpose user bytes, all values are 16-bit wide

words formed by two adjacent byte locations (high byte

and low byte).

The MAX1452 compensates for sensor offset, FSO, and

temperature errors by loading the internal calibration

registers with the compensation values. These compen-

sation values can be loaded to registers directly through

the serial digital interface during calibration or loaded

automatically from EEPROM at power-on. In this way the

device can be tested and configured during calibration

and test and the appropriate compensation values
