[AK4673]
(1)-2. READ Operations
Set the R/W bit = “1” for the READ operation of the AK4673. After transmission of data, the master can read the next
address’s data by generating an acknowledge instead of terminating the write cycle after receiving of the first data word.
After receiving each data packet the internal 6-bit address counter is incremented by one, and the next data is
automatically taken into the next address. If the address exceeds 24H prior to generating a stop condition, the address
counter will “roll over” to 00H and the data of 00H will be read out.
The AK4673 supports two basic read operations: CURRENT ADDRESS READ and RANDOM ADDRESS READ.
(1)-2-1. CURRENT ADDRESS READ
The AK4673 contains an internal address counter that maintains the address of the last word accessed, incremented by
one. Therefore, if the last access (either a read or write) were to address n, the next CURRENT READ operation would
access data from the address n+1. After receiving of the slave address with R/W bit set to “1”, the AK4673 generates an
acknowledge, transmits 1-byte of data to the address set by the internal address counter and increments the internal
address counter by 1. If the master does not generate an acknowledge to the data but instead generates a stop condition,
the AK4673 ceases transmission.

(1)-2-2. RANDOM ADDRESS READ
The random read operation allows the master to access any memory location at random. Prior to issuing the slave address
with the R/W bit set to “1”, the master must first perform a “dummy” write operation. The master issues a start request, a
slave address (R/W bit = “0”) and then the register address to read. After the register address is acknowledged, the master
immediately reissues the start request and the slave address with the R/W bit set to “1”. The AK4673 then generates an
acknowledge, 1 byte of data and increments the internal address counter by 1. If the master does not generate an
acknowledge to the data but instead generates a stop condition, the AK4673 ceases transmission.
