Every channel in the System Monitor (SYSMON) can leverage several features that enable the conversions captured by SYSMON to be more convenient to use.
- Averaging—Each channel can be uniquely enabled with an averaging rate of 2, 4, 8, and 16 conversions.
- Max/Min Tracking—Each channel stores the maximum and minimum samples captured by the SYSMON since the last reset.
- Alarms—Up to 160 channels can be configured to assert alarms and interrupts based on user-defined thresholds.
In addition, the temperature monitor channel can be configured to trigger a shutdown of the system when the device is operating in an unexpected or undesired temperature range.
