Table 3. Configuration Register Bit Descriptions
BIT NAME
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
0 
Reserved 
Power-up state = 0 
The master can write to this bit, but it will always read out as a 0. 
R1 
Conversion Resolution Bit 1 
Power-up state = 0 
Sets conversion resolution (see Table 5) 
R0 
Conversion Resolution Bit 0 
Power-up state = 0 
Sets conversion resolution (see Table 5) 
F1 
Thermostat Fault Tolerance Bit 1 
Power-up state = 0 
Sets the thermostat fault tolerance (see Table 6). 
F0 
Thermostat Fault Tolerance Bit 0 
Power-up state = 0 
Sets the thermostat fault tolerance (see Table 6). 
POL 
Thermostat Output (O.S.) Polarity 
Power-up state = 0 
POL = 0 — O.S. is active low. 
POL = 1 — O.S. is active high. 
TM 
Thermostat Operating Mode 
Power-up state = 0 
TM = 0 — Comparator mode. 
TM = 1 — Interrupt mode. 
See the OPERATION–Thermostat section for a detailed description of 
these modes. 
SD 
Shutdown 
Power-up state = 0 
SD = 0 — Active conversion and thermostat operation. 
SD = 1 — Shutdown mode. 
See the SHUTDOWN MODE section for a detailed description of this 
mode.
