Digital I/O change detection
You can configure devices to transmit a data sample immediately whenever a monitored digital I/O
pin changes state. IC command is a bitmask that determines which digital I/O lines to monitor for a
state change. If you set one or more bits inIC, the device transmits an I/O sample as soon it observes
a state change on the monitored digital I/O line(s) using edge detection.
Change detection is only applicable to digital I/O pins that are configured as digital input (3) or digital
output (4 or 5).
The figure below shows how I/O change detection can work in combination with Periodic I/O
sampling to improve sampling accuracy.In the figure, the gray dashed lines with a dot on top
represent samples taken from the monitored DIO line. The top graph shows only periodicIRsamples,
the bottom graph shows a combination ofIRperiodic samples andICdetected changes. In the top
graph, the humps indicate that the sample was not taken at that exact moment and needed to wait
for the nextIRsample period.
