The ERR-flag will be set during over current shut down. It can be reset by reading the ERR-flag. If the channel is
still in over current shut down, the ERR-flag will be set again. During the automatic restart of the channel the ERR-
flag can be cleared by reading the ERR-flag. It will be set again as soon as the over current protection is activated
again.
The number of restarts nretry is depending on the VDS voltage according to the following figure and Chapter 8.2.

The retry latch or over temperature latch is cleared by SPI command HWCR.CL = 1b. If the input pin or the bit in
the SPI register OUT is still set, the channel will be turned on immediately (or according to the automatic PWM
generator setting) after the command HWCR.CL = 1b.
