PRODUCTION DATA.
In this mode, the device stores the sixteen conversion prior to the activation of the Alert. Upon activation of Alert, conversion stops. For this mode, Set DATA_BUFFER_OPMODE to 100b. In this mode, the device starts converting and stores the data on setting the bit in the SEQ_START register and continues to store the data into the data buffer until one of the digital comparator flags is set for crossing a high threshold or a low threshold for the channels selected in the sequence. If the SEQ_ABORT bit is set before the data buffer is filled, the device aborts the sequence and stops storing the conversion results. If more than 16 conversions occur between start of sequence and alert output, the first entries written into the data buffer are over-written.
Figure 58 and Figure 59 illustrates the filling of data buffer in autonomous mode with Pre alert Data.
