Temperature Trip Point

The internal thermal sensor reports three trip points: Cool, Hot, and Catastrophic trip points in the order of increasing temperature.

Crossing the cool trip point when going from higher to lower temperature may generate an interrupt. Crossing the hot trip point going from lower to higher temp may generate an interrupt. Each trip point has control register bits to select what type of interrupt is generated.

Crossing the cool trip point while going from low to higher temperature or crossing the hot trip point while going from high to lower temperature will not cause an interrupt.
