INTRODUCTION

The information contained in Application Note 38 details the Configuration Register settings for the
SMM105 single-channel supply voltage monitor and active DC output controller (ADOC). The SMM105 Windows Graphical User Interface (GUI) is also shown with the associated register and function highlighted. For additional explanation on device functionality related to the configuration registers, refer to the SMM105 Data Sheet. functions. The third are command registers to immediately operate the SMM105 functions.

REGISTER FORMATS AND FUNCTIONS
There are a total of 16 registers that are separated into four basic register types. The first are those that set a margin or nominal threshold where the binary value written to the register is used to compute an incremental voltage. The second type enables or disables a function or selects between two specific functions. The third are command registers to immediately operate the SMM105 functions. The fourth register types are volatile and non-volatile status registers that record device conditions and device tracking codes.


The device type identifier for the memory array, the configuration registers and the command and status registers are accessible with the same slave address. It can be programmed to any 4-bit number, 0000BIN through 1111BIN. The bus address bits A[2:0] are hard wired through address pins 2, 4 and 6 (A2, A1 and A0). The bus address accessed in the address byte of the serial data stream must match the setting of the SMM105 address pins. Configuration Registers are located in 00HEX thru 45HEX. The General-Purpose Memory array is located in 80HEX thru FFHEX.

SMM105 Windows Graphical User Interface
The SMM105 Windows GUI (Figure 1) is used with the
SMX3200 programming 'Dongle'. It is an easy to use Graphical Interface that is compatible with Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000 and XP operating systems. The GUI consists of pull-down menus, check boxes, up/down buttons, etc. There are "mouse-overs" that define every function and an expert mode for directly entering data into the configuration registers. The GUI generates a checksum that can compare the programmed device configuration register values versus the hex contents.
