5. The first filtered output is compared against a programmable code value that corresponds to the desired
shutoff temperature set point Temp
Shutdown
and is set using bits SHUTDWN[3:0] in register Config58 at
Address 90. The shutdown temperature code is configured as an offset from the wakeup temperature
code; Temp

. See Equation 79:
6. The ADC output code is filtered using a faster low-pass filter with a programmable time constant
configured using bits EOTP_FLP[2:0] in register Config55 at Address 87.
7. For overtemperature compensation, a second low-pass filter with a programmable time constant of two
minutes is configured using bits EOTP_SLP[2:0] in register Config55 at Address 87.
8. Configure bits RATE[1:0] in register Config44 at Address 76 to set a rate to decrease the second-stage
dim level once the measured 8-bit temperature value corresponding to the external NTC resistance
connected to pin eOTP exceeds the temperature threshold set by bits eOTP[4:0]. The rate at which the
12-bit dim level is decreased is set to any one of the following:
