EMPERATURE READBACK
The PCF8833 has a built-in temperature readback
(RDTEMP) measurement device. The measured value is
provided as an 8-bit digital value TD[7:0] which can be
read back via the interface.
The temperature can be determined from TD[7:0] using
the following formula:
T
0.9375
TD

Temperature measurements are started automatically
every ten seconds when the digital temperature
compensation is active (default).
A measurement can be initiated by sending the instruction
to set TCVOPE (to either logic 1 or logic 0), irrespective of
whether temperature compensation is disabled or not.
After initialization, the measurement will take
approximately 5 ms to complete. It is recommended to
read the register twice to qualify the returned result,
especially if the measurement is triggered automatically.
The input and output data format for the temperature
readback is given in Table 73.

N-
LINE INVERSION
The N-line inversion (NLI) command inverts the row functions after N-line row time slots in order to avoid a DC
component on the LCD display. Thus, when N-line is set to 19DEC inversion of the row functions will occur after 76 rows.
With FINV = 1 (see Section 6.2.34) the super-frame inversion is active and the NLI counter always starts at super-frame
start.
When FINV = 0 a DC voltage may remain on the display depending on the NLI setting. When FINV = 0 and NLI = 0 there
is no inversion, which results in a DC voltage on the display.
