MCT8329A: CONTROLLER_FAULT_STATUS EEPROM's LOSS_OF_SYNC and MTR_LCK not being cleared

Tool/software:

Hello

I am setting the CLR_FLT bit in MCT8329's ALGO_CTRL1 EEPROM and am expecting the CONTROLLER_FAULT_STATUS EEPROM's LOSS_OF_SYNC and MTR_LCK bits to be cleared. This does not happen.

I've also tried adding a delay of 500 ms between the setting of CLR_FLT and reading out CONTROLLER_FAULT_STATUS, but this still does not clear these bits.

Any ideas, please?

Thanks
