PRODUCTION DATA
One or more of the available alarms can be set to activate the ALARM pin. Connect the ALARM pin as an optional hardware interrupt to the host. The host can query the alarm status registers to determine the alarm source upon assertion of the interrupt. Any alarm event activates the pin, as long as the alarm is not masked in the ALARM_STATUS_MASK register. When an alarm event is masked, the occurrence of the event sets the corresponding status bit in the alarm status registers, but does not activate the ALARM pin.
The ALARM pin output depends on ALARM_STATUS and ALARM_STATUS_MASK register settings, independent of ALARM_ACT register settings.
