Temperature Registers, 8-Bits, Read-Only
(INT_TEMP, EXT_TEMP)
The binary value (2’s complement format) in these two
registers represents temperature of the internal and external
sensors following a conversion cycle. The registers are
automatically updated in an alternating manner.

In the two temperature data and four threshold setpoint
registers, each unit value represents one degree (Celsius).
The value is in 2’s-complement binary format such that a
reading of 00000000b corresponds to 0°C. Examples of this
temperature-to-binary value relationship are shown in the
following table.

Temperature Threshold Setpoint Registers,
8-Bits, Read-Write (INT_HLIM, INT_LLIM,
EXT_HLIM, EXT_LLIM)
These registers store the values of the upper and lower
temperature setpoints for event detection. The value is in
2’s-complement binary. INT_HLIM and INT_LLIM are com-
pared with the INT_TEMP value, and EXT_HLIM and
EXT_LLIM are compared with EXT_TEMP. These registers
may be written at any time.
