Setting pin EMC to hi configures iC-HT for microcon-
troller mode (MCU mode). Several parameters can
be configured through a microcontroller via I²C or SPI
communication. More information about the serial
communication interface can be found on page 21.

The configuration of the internal parameters of iC-HT
must be done in configuration mode. In this mode, the
configuration memory can be written and read back
without changing the previous configuration state of
iC-HT. Once the configuration is considered as valid,
iC-HT can be switched to operation mode. These two
modes are configured by the MODE register. The time
elapsed in configuration must not exceed 40 ms. If this
timeout is exceeded, both channels will be switched
off. More information on page 32.

Each individual channel can be enabled by setting pin
ECx to hi. Setting register bits DISCx to 1 disables
the corresponding channel. If either pin ECx is lo or
register bits DISCx is 1, the corresponding channel is
disabled.

With ADCCx(2:0) = 100, the signal to the A/D converter
is selected by register bit ADSNFx. With ADSNFx = 1
the measuring point to the A/D converter is the internal
sense node of the internal programmable logarithmic
monitor resistor (PLR). With ADSNFx = 0 the sensing
point is connected directly to MDAx pin.
