Description
Configures Automatic Conversion mode. When these bits are set to zeros, the automatic conversion
mode is disabled. This is the case at power-up.
When these bits are set to a non-zero value, the ADC will begin operating in automatic conversion
mode. (See AUTOMATIC CONVERSION MODE). The Cycle Time table shows how different values
provide various conversion intervals.
0: Alerts will self-clear when the measured voltage moves within the limits by more than the hysteresis
register value.
1: Alerts will not self-clear and are only cleared when a one is written to the alert high flag or the alert
low flag in the Alert Status register.
0: Disables alert status bit [D15] in the Conversion Result register.
1: Enables alert status bit [D15] in the Conversion Result register.
0: Disables the ALERT output pin. The ALERT output will TRI-STATE when the pin is disabled.
1: Enables the ALERT output pin.
*This bit does not apply to the ADC081C027.
Always reads zeros. Zeros must be written to these bits.
This bit configures the active level polarity of the ALERT output pin.
0: Sets the ALERT pin to active low.
1: Sets the ALERT pin to active high.
*This bit does not apply to the ADC081C027.
VLOW -- Alert Limit Register - Under Range
This register holds the lower limit threshold used to determine the alert condition. If the conversion moves lower
than this limit, a VLOW alert is generated.

Description
Always reads zeros. Zeros must be written to these bits.
Sets the lower limit threshold used to determine the alert condition. If the conversion moves lower than
this limit, a VLOW alert is generated.
Always reads zeros. Zeros must be written to these bits.
VHIGH -- Alert Limit Register - Over Range
This register holds the upper limit threshold used to determine the alert condition. If the conversion moves higher
than this limit, a VHIGH alert is generated.
