WRITE EXTENDED COMMAND BYTE
In the write extended command byte operation, the master
device writes to one of the three extended registers of the slave
device, as follows:
1. The master device asserts a start condition on SDA.
2. The master sends the 7-bit slave address, followed by the
write bit (low).
3. The addressed slave device asserts an acknowledge on SDA.
4. The master sends the register address byte. The MSB of
this byte is set to 1 to indicate an extended register write.
The two LSBs indicate which of the three extended
registers is to be written to (see Table 8). All other bits
should be set to 0.
5. The slave asserts an acknowledge on SDA.
6. The master sends the extended command byte (refer to
Table 9, Table 10, and Table 11).
7. The slave asserts an acknowledge on SDA.
8. The master asserts a stop condition on SDA to end
the transaction.

extended register.

Table 9. ALERT_EN Register Operations
Bit Default Name Function
0 0 EN_ADC_OC1 LSB, enabled if a single ADC conversion on the I channel exceeds the threshold set in the ALERT_TH register.
1
0
EN_ADC_OC4
Enabled if four consecutive ADC conversions on the I channel exceed the threshold set in the
ALERT_TH register.
2 1 EN_HS_ALERT Enabled if the hot swap operation either has latches off or enters a cooldown cycle because of an
overcurrent event.
3 0 EN_OFF_ALERT Enables an alert if the hot swap operation is turned off by a transition that deasserts the ON pin or by an
operation that writes the SWOFF bit high.
4 0 CLEAR Clears the OFF_ALERT, HS_ALERT, and ADC_ALERT status bits in the STATUS register. The value of these
bits may immediately change if the source of the alert is not cleared and the alert function is not disabled.
The CLEAR bit self-clears to 0 after the STATUS register bits are cleared.
Table 10. ALERT_TH Register Operations
Bit Default Function
[7:0] FF The ALERT_TH register sets the current level at which an alert occurs. Defaults to ADC full scale. The ALERT_TH 8-bit value
corresponds to the top eight bits of the current channel data.

Bit Default Name Function
0
0
SWOFF LSB, forces the hot swap operation off. Equivalent to deasserting the ON pin.
