SENSOR CONFIGURATION

The MCP9843/98243 device has a 16-bit Configuration

functions for a robust temperature monitoring system.

Bits 10 thru 0 are used to select Event output boundary

hysteresis, device Shutdown or Low-Power mode,

temperature boundary and critical temperature lock,

temperature Event output enable/disable. In addition,

the user can select the Event output condition (output

set for TUPPER and TLOWER temperature boundary or

TCRIT only), read Event output status and set Event

output polarity and mode (Comparator Output or

Interrupt Output mode).

The temperature hysteresis bits 10 and 9 can be used

prevent output chatter when the ambient

temperature gradually changes beyond the user-

specified temperature boundary (see Section 5.2.2

“Temperature Hysteresis (THYST)”. The Continuous

Conversion or Shutdown mode is selected using bit 8.

In Shutdown mode, the band gap temperature sensor

circuit stops converting temperature and the Ambient

Temperature

(TA) holds the previous

successfully

converted

temperature

data

(see

Section 5.2.1 “Shutdown Mode”). Bits 7 and 6 are

used to lock the user-specified boundaries TUPPER,

TLOWER and TCRIT to prevent an accidental rewrite.

Bits 5 thru 0 are used to configure the temperature

Event output pin. All functions are described in

Configuration”).

bit 10-9

TUPPER and TLOWER Limit Hysteresis (THYST):

= 0°C (power-up default)

= 1.5°C

= 3.0°C

= 6.0°C

(Refer to Section 5.2.3 “Event Output Configuration”)

This bit can not be altered when either of the lock bits are set (bit 6 and bit 7).

This bit can be programmed in shutdown mode.

bit 8

Shutdown Mode (SHDN):

Continuous Conversion (power-up default)

Shutdown (Low-Power mode)

In shutdown, all power-consuming activities are disabled, though all registers can be written to or read.

Event output will de-assert.

This bit cannot be set ‘1’ when either of the lock bits is set (bit 6 and bit 7). However, it can be cleared

‘0’ for Continuous Conversion while locked (Refer to Section 5.2.1 “Shutdown Mode”).
