LOW
 Limit Register (Read/Write) [Address = 24h] 
This limit register is an 8-bit read/write register that stores the 
VDD lower limit, which will cause an interrupt and activate the 
INT/INT
 output (if enabled). For this to happen, the measured 
V
DD
 value has to be less than or equal to the value in this 
register. The default value is 2.7 V.

 Limit Register (Read/Write) [Address = 25h] 
This limit register is an 8-bit read/write register that stores the 
twos complement of the internal temperature upper limit, 
which will cause an interrupt and activate the INT/INT
 output 
(if enabled). For this to happen, the measured internal temp-
erature value has to be greater than the value in this register. 
Because it is an 8-bit register, the temperature resolution is 1癈. 
The default value is +100癈.

Internal TLOW Limit Register (Read/Write) [Address = 26h] 
This limit register is an 8-bit read/write register that stores the 
twos complement of the internal temperature lower limit, which 
will cause an interrupt and activate the INT/INT
 output (if 
enabled). For this to happen, the measured internal temperature 
value has to be more negative than or equal to the value in this 
register. Because it is an 8-bit register, the temperature reso-
lution is 1癈. The default value is 55癈.

External THIGH/AIN1 VHIGH Limit Register (Read/Write) 
[Address = 27h] 
If Pins 7 and 8 are configured for the external temperature 
sensor, this limit register is an 8-bit read/write register that 
stores the twos complement of the external temperature upper 
limit, which will cause an interrupt and activate the INT/INT
 
output (if enabled). For this to happen, the measured external 
temperature value has to be greater than the value in this reg-
ister. Because it is an 8-bit register, the temperature resolution is 
1癈. The default value is 1癈. 
If Pins 7 and 8 are configured for AIN1 and AIN2 inputs, this 
limit register is an 8-bit read/write register that stores the AIN1 
input upper limit, which will cause an interrupt and activate the 
INT/INT
 output (if enabled). For this to happen, the measured 
AIN1 value has to be greater than the value in this register. 
Because it is an 8-bit register, the resolution is four times less 
than the resolution of the 10-bit ADC. Because the power-up 
default settings for Pins 7 and 8 are AIN1 and AIN2 inputs, the 
default value for this limit register is full-scale voltage.

 Limit Register (Read/Write)  
[Address = 28h] 
If Pins 7 and 8 are configured for the external temperature 
sensor, this limit register is an 8-bit read/write register that 
stores the twos complement of the external temperature lower 
limit, which will cause an interrupt and activate the INT/INT
 
output (if enabled). For this to happen, the measured external 
temperature value has to be more negative than or equal to the 
value in this register. Because it is an 8-bit register, the temp-
erature resolution is 1癈. The default value is 0癈. 
If Pins 7 and 8 are configured for AIN1 and AIN2 inputs, this 
limit register is an 8-bit read/write register that stores the AIN1 
input lower limit, which will cause an interrupt and activate the 
INT/
INT
 output (if enabled). For this to happen, the measured 
AIN1 value has to be less than or equal to the value in this reg-
ister. As it is an 8-bit register, the resolution is four times less 
than the resolution of the 10-bit ADC. Because the power-up 
default settings for Pins 7 and 8 are AIN1 and AIN2 inputs, the 
default value for this limit register is 0 V.

 Limit Register (Read/Write) [Address = 2Bh] 
This limit register is an 8-bit read/write register that stores the 
AIN2 input upper limit, which will cause an interrupt and acti-
vate the INT/INT
 output (if enabled). For this to happen, the 
measured AIN2 value has to be greater than the value in this 
register. Because it is an 8-bit register, the resolution is four 
times less than the resolution of the 10-bit ADC. The default 
value is full-scale voltage.
