The Configuration Register settings control the operating modes for the device. This register controls the conversion time settings for both the shunt and bus voltage measurements as well as the averaging mode used. The operating mode that controls what signals are selected to be measured is also programmed in the Configuration Register .

The Configuration Register can be read from at any time without impacting or affecting the device settings or a conversion in progress. Writing to the Configuration Register halts any conversion in progress until the write sequence is completed resulting in a new conversion starting based on the new contents of the Configuration Register (00h). This halt prevents any uncertainty in the conditions used for the next completed conversion.

RST:Reset Bit
Bit 15Setting this bit to '1' generates a system reset that is the same as power-on reset. Resets all registers to default values; this bit self-clears.
AVG:Averaging Mode
Bits 9–11Determines the number of samples that are collected and averaged. Table 7-3 shows all the AVG bit settings and related number of averages for each bit setting.

VBUSCT:Bus Voltage Conversion Time

MODE:Operating Mode
Bits 0-2Selects continuous, triggered, or power-down mode of operation. These bits default to continuous shunt and bus measurement mode. The mode settings are shown in Table 7-6.
