7.5.4 Status Bits

Every response, in SPI mode and UBM, from the AFEx81H1 includes a set of status bits. For SPI mode bit order, see Section 7.5.2.1, and for UBM bit order, Section 7.5.3.1.

Table 7-12 Status Bits
STATUS BIT DESCRIPTION NOTES / REFERENCE
ALARM_IRQ

1h = ALARM_IRQ asserted

0h = Normal operation

From the GEN_STATUS(1) register (Table 7-40).

Also see Section 7.3.4.

CRC_ERR

(CRC enabled SPI only)

1h = CRC error detect in input frame

0h = No CRC error detected

Generated by the SPI on a frame by frame basis.

See Section 7.5.2.3.
GEN_IRQ

1h = GEN_IRQ asserted

0h = Normal Operation

From the ALARM_STATUS(1) register (Table 7-39).

Also see Section 7.3.4.
MODEM_IRQ

1h = MODEM_IRQ asserted

0h = Normal operation

From the GEN_STATUS(1) register (Table 7-40).

Also see Section 7.3.4.

R/IRQn

(UBM only)

1h = Read request

0h = IRQ event

Generated by the UART interface on a frame by frame basis.

See Section 7.5.3.1 for details.
RESET

1h = First readback after RESET

0h = All other readbacks

From the GEN_STATUS register (Table 7-40).

Also see Section 7.4.2.
(1) ALARM_STATUS, MODEM_STATUS, and GEN_STATUS registers contain cross-readable IRQ flags for the other registers. The ALARM_STATUS register has the GEN_IRQ and MODEM_IRQ bits. MODEM_STATUS has the GEN_IRQ and ALARM_IRQ bits. GEN_STATUS has the ALARM_IRQ and MODEM_IRQ bits. This functionality enables the system microcontroller to always get full status information by reading only one register, and thus save power.
