Angular Rate Sensor (Standard version)
5.3.1 ADC Instructions and Answers
There are three SPI commands that are used to control embedded ADC of the MLX90609: STATR,
ADCC and ADCR.
• The Refusal Answer
Every instruction sent to the MLX90609 has an answer. If the MLX90609 is not able to accept the
instruction a refusal answer will be transmitted out. This answer has a unique format which is
shown in the Table 7. The refusal answer is the only one that has a set MSB. The other bits help to
understand a possible reason for the instruction rejection.
