registers.
CONFIGURATION REGISTER ADDRESS
The Configuration Registers are located at
address offset +0 and +1 with nCS active.
CONFIGURATION REGISTERS
The configuration registers are used to select
programmable options of the chip. After power up,
the chip is in the default mode. The default modes
are identified in the Configuration Mode Register

Enter Configuration Mode
To enter the configuration mode, two writes in
succession to port +0 with 55H data are required.
If a write to another address or port occurs
between these two writes, the chip does not enter

configuration register through port +1.
Exit Configuration Mode
The configuration mode is exited by writing an
AAH to port +0.
