Table 20 - Skip Frequency Examples
Skip Frequency Examples
The skip frequency has hysteresis so the
output does not toggle between high and
low values. Three distinct bands can be
programmed. If none of the skip bands
touch or overlap, each band has its own
high/low limit.
If skip bands overlap or touch, the center
frequency is recalculated based on the
highest and lowest band values.
If a skip band(s) extend beyond the max
frequency limits, the highest band value is
clamped at the max frequency limit. The
center frequency is recalculated based on
the highest and lowest band values.
If the band is outside the limits, the skip
band is inactive.
