I am using a TMP117 with an MSP432 in continuous conversion mode. After power up, I write 0x01A4 to the Configuration register for continuous conversion mode with 500 ms sample rate and ALERT pin active low reflecting the data ready flag.
According to Table 6 of the TMP117 data sheet, "Every time the temperature register or configuration register is read, this bit is cleared".
Immediately after writing to the Configuartion register, I read both the Configuration register and the Temperature register. The Configuration register returns the value 0x21A4, but the ALERT pin never transitions from low to high so the MSP432 does not see subsequent interrupts (becasuse there are no future low-to-high transitions) and doesn't execute the ISR which transfers data from the TMP117.
Is there something else that needs to be done to make the TMP117 deassert ALERT after the data register is read?
