INA230EVM Software Overview
In addition to the INA230EVM software alert configuration, the Alert Configuration box includes the
Conversion Ready button that allows for a special functionality on the Alert pin. When the INA230
completes the conversions for its current operation, it triggers the Alert pin and notifies the user that
another conversion can be performed. In most cases, the INA230 conversion ready flag is not visible
because of the speed of the INA230 conversion process.
