Arming Function: Unfiltered Mode

On the falling edge of CS for an acceleration response, the most recent available DSP sample is compared against positive

and negative thresholds that are programmed via the ARMT_x registers. Reference Section 3.1.9 for register details. If the sam-

ple equals or exceeds either threshold, an arming condition is indicated.

Once an arming condition is indicated for the ARM output is asserted when CS is asserted and the MISO data includes an

acceleration response.

The pulse stretch function is not applied in Unfiltered mode.
