Production Data
TEMPERATURE SENSOR OUTPUT
The WM8990 output drivers can generate a large amount of heat. To protect the device from
overheating a thermal shutdown function is provided (see "Thermal Shutdown" section for more
information).
The polarity of the Thermal Shutdown sensor may be controlled by register bit TEMPOK_POL. Note
that this polarity inversion bit applies to the Interrupt register behaviour only; it does not affect the
direct GPIO output of the Temperature Sensor function. The associated interrupt event may be
masked or enabled by register bit TEMPOK_IRQ_ENA. The Temperature status bit contained in the
IRQ Register (R18) may be read at any time or else in response to an Interrupt event. See Table 55
for more details of the Interrupt function.
If direct output of the Temperature status bit is required to the external pins of the WM8990, the
following register settings are required:
The register fields used to configure the Temperature Sensor GPIO function are described in Table
51.

The temperature sensor function operates according to the following truth table:
