14.3.4. CLAMPING Parameters
The clamping levels are two independent values to limit the output voltage range. The CLAMP_LOW
parameter adjusts the minimum output voltage level. The CLAMP_HIGH parameter sets the maximum
output voltage level. Both parameters have 16 bits of adjustment. In analog mode, the resolution will be
limited by the D/A converter (12 bits) to 0.024%V
SPI mode, the resolution is 14bits or 0.022deg over 360deg.
14.3.5. DEADZONE Parameter
The dead zone is defined as the angle window between 0 and 359.9999 (See Figure 12).
When the digital angle (Alpha or Beta) lies in this zone, the IC is in fault mode (RESONFAULT must be
set to “1” – See 14.7.1).
In case of ALPHA_MOD180 (or BETA_MOD180) is not set, the angle between 180° and 360° will
generate a “deadzone” fault, unless DEADZONE=0.
14.4. Identification
Identification number: 48 bits freely useable by Customer for traceability purpose.
