60.6.3.6 Temperature Monitor

Each 500 ms, the temperature measure is performed and the temperature monitor warns the protection unit when the temperature is out of range.

Two types of alarm are generated:

  • High threshold overtaking
  • Low threshold overtaking

The temperature monitor high threshold can be set to two different temperatures by programming SECUMOD_GPSBR.TSRANGE. OTP bits can be used to allow or prevent this reconfiguration and select a permanent setting when reconfiguration is not allowed.
