AD7291
WRITING TO THE AD7291
WRITING TWO BYTES OF DATA TO A 16-BIT
REGISTER
All registers on the AD7921 are 16-bit registers; therefore, two
bytes of data are required to write a value to any one of these
registers. Writing two bytes of data to a register consists of the
following sequence (see Figure 25):

The master device asserts a start condition on SDA.
The master sends the 7-bit slave address followed by the
write bit (low).
The addressed slave device asserts an acknowledge on SDA.
The master sends a register address. The slave asserts an
acknowledge on SDA.
The master sends the first data byte (most significant).
The slave asserts an acknowledge on SDA.
The master sends the second data byte (least significant).
The slave asserts an acknowledge on SDA.
The master asserts a stop condition on SDA to end the
transaction.
