common SMBALERT line that is connected to the master.
When the SMBALERT line is pulled low by one of the
devices, the following procedure occurs (see Figure 18):
When reading data from a register there are two

If the address pointer register value of the NCT1008 is
unknown or not the desired value, it is first necessary to
set it to the correct value before data can be read from
the desired data register. This is done by writing to the
NCT1008 as before, but only the data byte containing
the register read address is sent, because data is not to
be written to the register see Figure 16.
A read operation is then performed consisting of the
serial bus address, R/W bit set to 1, followed by the
data byte read from the data register see Figure 17.
If the address pointer register is known to be at the
desired address, data can be read from the corresponding
data register without first writing to the address pointer
register and the bus transaction shown in Figure 16 can
be omitted.
It is possible to read a data byte from a data register
without first writing to the address pointer register.
However, if the address pointer register is already at the
correct value, it is not possible to write data to a register
without writing to the address pointer register because
the first data byte of a write is always written to the
address pointer register.
Some of the registers have different addresses for read
and write operations. The write address of a register
must be written to the address pointer if data is to be
written to that register, but it may not be possible to
read data from that address. The read address of a
register must be written to the address pointer before
data can be read from that register.

condition that caused the ALERT no longer exists. If the
SMBALERT line remains low, the master sends the ARA

were low have responded.
Low Power Standby Mode
setting Bit 6 of the configuration register. When Bit 6 is low,
the NCT1008 operates normally. When Bit 6 is high, the
ADC is inhibited, and any conversion in progress is
terminated without writing the result to the corresponding
value register. However, the SMBus is still enabled. Power
consumption in the standby mode is reduced to 5 mA if there
is no SMBus activity, or 30 mA if there are clock and data
signals on the bus.
initiate a one−shot conversion of both channels by writing to
the one−shot register (Address 0x0F), after which the device
returns to standby. It does not matter what is written to the
one−shot register, all data written to it is ignored. It is also
possible to write new values to the limit register while in
standby mode. If the values stored in the temperature value
registers are outside the new limits, an ALERT is generated,
even though the NCT1008 is still in standby.
