PRODUCTION DATA.
If the die temperature exceeds the trip point of the thermal warning (TOTW), the OTW bit is set in the IC status (IC_STAT) register. The reporting of OTW on the nFAULT pin can be enabled by setting the over-temperature warning reporting (OTW_REP) bit in the configuration control (CONFIG_CTRL) register. The device performs no additional action and continues to function. In this case, the nFAULT pin releases when the die temperature decreases below the hysteresis point of the thermal warning (TOTW_HYS). The OTW bit remains set until cleared through the CLR_FLT bit and the die temperature is lower than thermal warning trip (TOTW).
NOTE
Over Temperature warning is not reported on nFAULT pin by default.
