BQ25960: FLAG and MASK description in Datasheet

Part Number: BQ25960


Somewhere in the datasheet there is written

The TDIE_ALM_STAT and TDIE_ALM_FLAG bit is set to ‘1’ unless it is masked by TDIE_ALM_MASK bit. 

I found this phrasing for:

  • TSBUS_FLT, TSBAT_FLT, and TDIE_FLT
  • TSBUS_TSBAT_ALM
  • BUSOVP_ALM and BUSOCP_ALM

And then there is also written

The fields in the MASK registers allow the user to disable the interrupt on the INT pin, but the STAT and FLAG registers are still updated even though INT is not pulled low.

So now my question: Do those registers have this extra behavior?
