The trigger-pulse functionality allows for an external processor to initiate the process (either waveform sequencer, RTP, diagnostics or calibration) by pulsing the TRIG/INTZ pin. The process initiates and play until the process is done, at which point the device goes back into standby mode to preserve power. If a stop trigger (another trigger-pulse) is received before the routine has finished, the routine stops and the device goes back into standby state. In the case of diagnostics mode, a stop trigger causes the diagnostic routine to abort and no result is reported. In the case of automatic level calibration routine, a stop trigger causes the calibration to abort unless the AUTO_CAL_TIME[2:0] is set to trigger control, in which case the stop trigger is required for the calibration to complete, and the calibration graciously finishes and provide the expected output. Also note that a stop trigger can also be achieved by writing 0 to the GO bit.
The minimum pulse width duration is 1µs and the typical pulse ise kept short. If the pulse is too long, a corner case in the following note can occur.
