Thermal shutdown and thermal alert

The device can monitor the internal temperature. Based on the temperature value, the

device can simply provide an alert (if the temperature exceeds 150 °C) through the serial

interface, or trigger a thermal shutdown (if the temperature exceeds 170 °C). The effect of

the thermal shutdown is to turn off all channels until the temperature falls (considering a

hysteresis of around 15 °C). The thermal alert can be read by running the digital key

“Thermal alert reading”, holding the LE high for 14 CLK rising edges (see Figure 17). If

thermal alert is asserted, a 24-bit string at “1” will be sent through SDO at the next 24 CLK

rising edge.
