The following example pseudo code illustrates the configuration of an SMB Alert style interrupt when the light
intensity changes 20% from the current value, and persists for 3 conversion cycles:
In order to generate an interrupt on demand during system test or debug, a test mode (INTR = 11) can be used.
The following example illustrates how to generate an interrupt on demand:
Address = 0x39
Command = 0xAC
ReadWord (Address, Command, DataLow, DataHigh)
Channel0 = (256 * DataHigh) + DataLow
//Calculate upper and lower thresholds
T_Upper = Channel0 + (0.2 * Channel0)
T_Lower = Channel0 – (0.2 * Channel0)
//Write the lower threshold register
Command = 0xA2
WriteWord (Address, Command, T_Lower.LoByte, T_Lower.HiByte)
//Write the upper threshold register
Command = 0xA4
WriteWord (Address, Command, T_Upper.LoByte, T_Upper.HiByte)
//Enable interrupt
Command = 0x86
Data = 0x23
WriteByte(Address, Command, Data)
Address = 0x39
Command = 0x86
Data = 0x30
WriteByte(Address, Command, Data)
//Interrupt line should now be low
