Configuration register

The Configuration register is used to store the device settings such as Device Operation

mode, OS/INT Operation mode, OS/INT Polarity, and OS/INT Fault Queue.

The Configuration register allows the user to program various options such as conversion

resolution (see Table 8), thermostat fault tolerance, thermostat polarity, thermostat

operating mode, and shutdown mode. The user has READ/WRITE access to all of the bits

in the Configuration register. The entire register is volatile and thus powers-up in its default

state only.
