6.5.5 SMBus Alert Response

The INA4230 is designed to respond to the SMBus Alert Response address. The SMBus Alert Response provides a quick fault identification for simple targets. When an Alert occurs, the controller can broadcast the Alert Response target address (0001 100) with the Read/Write bit set high. Following this Alert Response, any target that generates an alert is identified by acknowledging the Alert Response and sending the address on the bus.

The Alert Response can activate several different target devices simultaneously, similar to the I2C General Call. If more than one target attempts to respond, bus arbitration rules apply. The device that is not prioritized during arbitration does not generate an acknowledge. The device continues to hold the Alert line lows until the device is prioritized as a result of the arbitration.
