Ideality Factor Register
The ideality factor registers are used to program the remote diode ideality factor into the EMC1033 so
that this error source can be eliminated. There are separate registers for both remote diodes so the
ideality factor compensation for each diode is programmed independently. The default ideality factor is
1.008 and has a value of XX010010b or 12h.

Consecutive ALERT Register
Bit 7 of the Consecutive ALERT register enables the SMBus timeout feature when set to 1 (the default
setting is 0). When enabled, the SMBus will timeout after approximately 25ms of inactivity. Table 4.11
describes how bits 3-1 of the Consecutive ALERT register set how many consecutive error conditions
must occur for each temperature measurement zone before the ALERT/THERM2 signal is asserted.
These error conditions include diode faults and exceeding temperature limits. The default value is one
which means that any out-of-limit measurement or any diode fault will cause the ALERT/THERM2 pin
to be asserted. Any combination of bits 3-1 other than those shown will result in a value of one.
