Function Description

Data_Ready Status Bit ([7]=ALS/IR_RDY, [6]=PS_RDY, [5]=Solar_UV/UV_RDY)

0

Data is NOT available to be used since power-on or last "clear".

7:5

Data Ready

Status

1

The data is available after enable. Once this bit is set, the only 2 ways to clear it to 0 are to read this

register or set such sensing disable.

Interrupt Status Bits ([3]=ALS/IR_INTS, [2]=PS_Hi_INTS, [1]=PS_Lo_INTS)

0

No interrupt event has occurred since power-on or last "clear".

3:1

Interrupt Status

1

The data has exceeded the designated window limits defined by Threshold registers, and persist timer

is equal to the set Persist count. Once this bit is set, the only 2 ways to clear it to 0 are to read this

register or set such sensing disable.

PS_Auto_Trim Interrupt Status Bit

0

No PS_Auto_Trim interrupt event has occurred since power-on or last “clear”.

0

PS_Auto_ Trim

Interrupt Status

1

The PS_Auto_Trim process has finished. Once this bit is set, the only 2 ways to clear it to 0 are to

read this register or set PS_Auto_Trim_EN bit to 0.
