PRODUCTION DATA
The device features a high and a low alarm on the analog voltage supply, AVDD. Unlike the input signal alarm, the AVDD alarm has fixed trip points that are set by design. The device features an internal analog comparator that constantly monitors the analog supply against the high and low threshold voltages. The high alarm is set if AVDD exceeds a typical value of 5.3 V and the low alarm is asserted if AVDD drops below 4.7 V. This feature is specially useful for debugging unusual device behavior caused by a glitch or brown-out condition on the analog AVDD supply.
