3.1 Operational registers
3.1.1 SPI4
The SPI4 bit ((address 15h, bit 7) is used to select the correct SPI protocol (three-wire or four-
wire, SPI-mode 3). The default value stored in the non-volatile part of the memory is SPI4=1
(four-wire SPI is default value !). After power on reset or soft reset or writing to EEPROM the
SPI4 EEPROM setting (35h) is downloaded to the image register SPI4 and the corresponding
SPI protocol is selected.
If the desired SPI is three-wire, the microcontroller must first write SPI4 to 0 (in image register
only or in EEPROM). This first writing is possible because only CSB, SCK and SDI are required
for a write sequence and the 3 bit timing diagrams are identical in three-wire and four-wire
configuration.
Since EEPROM has limited write cycle lifetime (minimum 1000 cycles specified) it is
recommended to use one of the following procedures.
Procedure 1 (recommended): Set SPI4 in image to correct value (SPI4=0 for SPI three-wire,
Procedure 2: Verify chip-ID (address 00h) after every power on reset, soft reset or EEPROM
Procedure 3: Set SPI4 once to correct interface in the EEPROM at 35h during final test
3.1.2 Range
These two bits (address 14h, bits 4 and 3) are used to select the full scale acceleration range.
Directly after changing the full scale range it takes 1/(2*bandwidth) to overwrite the data
registers with filtered data according to the selected bandwidth.

Important note:
Please refer to the comment in chapter 3 of how to protect bits 5, 6 and 7 when modifying other
bits of register 14h.
