6.4.6 Threshold Detection Calculations

The THRESHOLD_H_RESULT and THRESHOLD_L_RESULT threshold result registers are 12 bits, whereas the THRESHOLD_H_EXPONENT and THRESHOLD_L_EXPONENT threshold exponent registers are four bits. The threshold is compared at linear ADC_CODES, as given by the following equations. Therefore, the threshold registers are padded with zeros internally to compare with the ADC_CODES.

Equation 7. ADC_CODES_TH = THRESHOLD_H_RESULT << (8 + THRESHOLD_H_EXPONENT)

or

Equation 8. ADC_CODES_TH = THRESHOLD_H_RESULT × 2^(8 + THRESHOLD_H_EXPONENT)

and

Equation 9. ADC_CODES_TL = THRESHOLD_L_RESULT << (8 + THRESHOLD_L_EXPONENT)

or

Equation 10. ADC_CODES_TL=THRESHOLD_L_RESULT × 2^(8 + THRESHOLD_L_EXPONENT)

Thresholds are then compared as given in the following equations to detect fault events.

Equation 11. If ADC_CODES < ADC_CODES_TL a fault low is detected

and

Equation 12. If ADC_CODES > ADC_CODES_TH a fault high is detected

Based on the FAULT_COUNT register setting, with consecutive fault high or fault low events, the respective FLAG_H and FLAG_L registers are set. See the Interrupt Modes of Operation section for more information. Understanding the relation between the THRESHOLD_H_EXPONENT, THRESHOLD_H_RESULT, THRESHOLD_L_EXPONENT, and THRESHOLD_L_RESULT register bits and the output registers is important to set the appropriate threshold based on application needs.
