If the configuration byte is read repeatedly by clocking
continuously after reading the data bytes (i.e., after the
5th byte in the 18-bit conversion mode), the state of the
RDY bit indicates whether the device is ready with new
conversion result. When the Master finds the RDY bit is
cleared, it can send a not-acknowledge (NAK) bit and
a stop bit to exit the current read operation and send a
new read command for the latest conversion data.
Once the conversion data has been read, the ready bit
toggles to ‘1’ until the next new conversion data is
ready. The conversion data in the output register is
overwritten every time a new conversion is completed.

SDA lines.
The device can only be addressed as a slave. Once
addressed, it can receive configuration bits with a write
command or transmit the latest conversion results with
a read command. The serial clock pin (SCL) is an input
only and the serial data pin (SDA) is bidirectional. The
Master starts communication by sending a START bit
and terminates the communication by sending a STOP
bit. In read mode, the device releases the SDA line
after receiving NAK and STOP bits.

The first byte after the START bit is always the address
byte of the device, which includes the device code
(4 bits), address bits (3 bits), and R/W bit. The device
code for the devices is 1101, which is programmed at
the factory. The I

command.

(read mode), the device outputs the conversion data in
the following clocks. If the (R/W) bit is cleared (write
