TMP108: Alert signal toggles at 1Hz rate, can't get it to stop...

Part Number: TMP108

I’m running into an interesting issue on the TMP108, was wondering if anyone can help or have seen this before...

On our board, I see that the ALERT (C1) pin of TMP108 keeps toggling  @ 1Hz.  I cannot turn this off.  I have set all the registers of the TMP accordingly:

  1. Here are my register settings:
  1. CONFIG: (interrupt mode)

                                                               i.      BYTE1:  0x06

                                                             ii.      BYTE2: 0x30

    1. High temp threshold (50 degrees C)

                                                               i.      BYTE1:  0x03

                                                             ii.      BYTE2: 0x20

    1. LOW temp threshold (0 degrees C)

                                                               i.      BYTE1:  0x00

                                                             ii.      BYTE2: 0x00

  1. I am reading the CFG register, and the register is reading 0x06, 0x30 (no FL or FH)
  2. Current room temperature reads 24 degrees C
  3. We are using this part at 1.8V.

So I don’t understand why the ALERT pin is toggling, or how I can get it to stop....
