HI_TRIG_AINx[15:0] Register (address = 4Dh to 30h) [reset = 0000h]

This bank of registers configures the high threshold for the digital window comparator. For 16-bit ADC data output, the comparator thresholds are 16-bits wide and are spread over two 8-bit registers. Use the registers listed in Table 48 to configure the high threshold for the individual analog input channels.
