Note 8.10 This register is cleared on a read if no events are active.
This register is read only – a write to this register has no effect.
The Interrupt Status Register 2 bits are automatically set by the device whenever a remote temperature
sensor error occurs, or a tach reading value is above the minimum value set in the tachometer
minimum registers. The Interrupt Status Register 2 register holds a set bit until the event is read by
software or until the individual interrupt enable bit is cleared (see Note below).
The contents of this register are cleared (set to 0) automatically by the EMC2300 after it is read by
software,, if the temperature sensor error no loner exists, or if the tach reading register is no longer
above the minimum. Once set, the Interrupt Status Register 2 bits remain set until a read event occurs
or until the individual interrupt enable bit is cleared, even if the voltage, Tach, or diode event no longer
exists.
The remote diode fault bits do not clear on a read while the fault condition exists. If the start bit is set
when a fault condition occurs, 80h will be loaded into the associated temperature reading register,
which will cause the associated diode limit error bit to be set (Remote Diode 1 Limit Error or Remote
Diode 2 Limit Error) in addition to the diode fault bit. Disabling the enable bit for the diode will clear
both the fault bit and the error bit for that diode (see Note below).
This register is read only – a write to this register has no effect.
