Undervoltage is monitored on the VIN line, for POR generation.
Two VIN overvoltage shutdown thresholds (VOVTH) can be selected through the SPI. After POR, the lower threshold is enabled.
During LPM0, only the POR condition is monitored.
An integrated filter time avoids false reaction due to spikes on the VIN line.
In case of overvoltage, the external PMOS is switched off to protect the device. The BUCK1 controller is not switched off and it continues to run until the undervoltage on VREG or BUCK1 output is detected.
