10 / 46 page  Remote High Limit RDTS Measurement LM96063 ALERT Pin Status Register: RTDS High Time LM96063 SNIS149B – NOVEMBER 2011 – REVISED MARCH 2013 www.ti.com The remote temperature (RT) reading is associated with a T_CRIT Setpoint Register, and both local and remote temperature (LT and RT) readings are associated with a HIGH setpoint register (LHS and RHS). The RT is also associated with a LOW setpoint register (RLS). At the end of every temperature reading a digital comparison determines whether that reading is above its HIGH or T_CRIT setpoint or below its LOW setpoint. If so, the corresponding bit in the ALERT Status Register is set. If the ALERT mask bit is low, any bit set in the ALERT Status Register, with the exception of Busy or RDFA, will cause the ALERT output to be pulled low. Any temperature conversion that is out of the limits defined in the temperature setpoint registers will trigger an ALERT. Additionally, the ALERT Mask Bit must be cleared to trigger an ALERT in all modes. The format of the Remote High limit and T_CRIT limit comparison is programmable. The USF bit found in the Enhanced Configuration register controls whether comparisons use a signed or unsigned format. The temperature format used for Remote High and T_CRIT limit comparisons is +255.875 °C to -256 °C. The three different ALERT modes and TCRIT function will be discussed in the following sections. ALERT Output as a Temperature Comparator When the LM96063 is used in a system in which does not require temperature-based interrupts, the ALERT output could be used as a temperature comparator. In this mode, once the condition that triggered the ALERT to go low is no longer present, the ALERT is negated (Figure 6). For example, if the ALERT output was activated by the comparison of LT > LHS, when this condition is no longer true, the ALERT will return HIGH. This mode allows operation without software intervention, once all registers are configured during set-up. In order for the ALERT to be used as a temperature comparator, the Comparator Mode bit in the Remote Diode Temperature Filter and Comparator Mode Register must be asserted. This is not the power-on default state. Figure 6. ALERT Output as Temperature Comparator Response Diagram ALERT Output as an Interrupt The LM96063's ALERT output can be implemented as a simple interrupt signal when it is used to trigger an interrupt service routine. In such systems it is desirable for the interrupt flag to repeatedly trigger during or before the interrupt service routine has been completed. Under this method of operation, during the read of the ALERT Status Register the LM96063 will set the ALERT Mask bit in the Configuration Register if any bit in the ALERT Status Register is set, with the exception of Busy and RDFA. This prevents further ALERT triggering until the master has reset the ALERT Mask bit, at the end of the interrupt service routine. The ALERT Status Register bits are cleared only upon a read command from the master (see Figure 7 ) and will be re-asserted at the end of the next conversion if the triggering condition(s) persist(s). In order for the ALERT to be used as a dedicated interrupt signal, the Comparator Mode bit in the Remote Diode Temperature Filter and Comparator Mode Register must be set low. This is the power-on default state. The following sequence describes the response of a system that uses the ALERT output pin as an interrupt flag: 1. Master senses ALERT low. 2. Master reads the LM96063 ALERT Status Register to determine what caused the ALERT. 3. LM96063 clears ALERT Status Register, resets the ALERT HIGH and sets the ALERT Mask bit in the Configuration Register. 4. Master attends to conditions that caused the ALERT to be triggered. The fan is started, setpoint limits are adjusted, etc. 5. Master resets the ALERT Mask bit in the Configuration Register. 10 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2011–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM96063 |
