Hi ivnn

why do you want to trigger alarms? 

Do you want to Fault injection Test about SMU alarms?

as I know, Infineon didn't recommend these types of tests for SMU. 

but if you want to test, some alarm tests are available. 

for example, if you want to test ALM9[3], you just put higher voltage in VDD, VDDPD, VDDP3, VDDPM, VEXT.

or you can change each voltage OV threshold voltage by accessing the related register. 

also, you can test UV like OV Test.

 

But I think this kind of test is so dangerous. 

 

Thank you.
