BATTMON (0x6264) – Battery Monitor
Bit Name Reset R/W Description
7 – 0 R0 Reserved. Always read 0
6
BATTMON_OUT
0 R Result from the battery monitor.
1: Voltage is above value set in BATTMON_VOLTAGE.
0: Voltage is below the value set in BATTMON_VOLTAGE.
Note that the value of BATTMON_OUT is undefined except when BATTMON_PD is 0 and has
been 0 for 2 us.

BATTMON_VOLTAGE
11100 R/W Controls the trigger point for the battery monitor. The step size is 24 mV for the first 23 settings,
and then 169 mV (unless temperature-sense mode is enabled; see Section 13.2 for details).
Range to be used: 3–31

27: 2.482 V + (27 – 26) × 0.169 V = 2.651 V
28: 2.482 V + (28 – 26) × 0.169 V = 2.820 V
29: 2.482 V + (29 – 26) × 0.169 V = 2.989 V
30: 2.482 V + (30 – 26) × 0.169 V = 3.158 V
31 : 2.48 2V + (31 – 26) × 0.169 V = 3.327 V
0
BATTMON_PD
1 R/W
Turns on the battery monitor. Wait at least 2 µs before reading BATTMON_OUT.
0: Enable the battery monitor.
1: Disable the battery monitor.
One should turn the battery monitor off (BATTMON_PD = 1) after reading out the measurement
BATTMON_OUT in order to save power, as the battery monitor consumes power when enabled
(BATTMON_PD = 0).
MONMUX (0x61A6) – Monitor MUX
Bit Name Reset R/W Description
7:1 – - - Reserved
0
BATTMON_INPUT
0 R/W Determines the input to the battery moitor:
0: Supply voltage (AVDD5)
1: Voltage from the temperature sensor, which needs to be enabled using the
ATEST.ATESTCTRL register; described in Section 23.15.3
