7.3.5 Sensor Fault

The TMP461-EP device can sense a fault at the D+ input resulting from an incorrect diode connection. The TMP461-EP device can also sense an open circuit. Short-circuit conditions return a value of –64°C. The detection circuitry consists of a voltage comparator that trips when the voltage at D+ exceeds (V+) – 0.3V (typical). The comparator output is continuously checked during a conversion. If a fault is detected, then OPEN (bit 2) in the status register is set to 1.

When not using the remote sensor with the TMP461-EP device, D+ must be connected to D– or GND to prevent meaningless fault warnings.
