<ETS, EVIR, EIHE>
These data items are internally connected to registers of AK8973 to directly control adjustment values. Data
other than ETS, EVIR, and EIHE is not directly connected to internal registers of AK8973.
<ETST>, <WRAL1>
Addresses for testing. Usually, do not access these addresses.
<EHXGA, EHYGA, EHZGA>
These addresses are used for magnetic sensor adjustment. These data items are read and set to HXGA, HYGA
and HZGA registers respectively to adjust the sensitivity of each axis of the magnetic sensors.
At addresses other than the above addresses, the EEPROM circuit of AK8973 does not operate.
