Data Output X Registers A and B
The data output X registers are two 8-bit registers, data output register A and data output register B. These registers
store the measurement result from channel X. Data output X register A contains the MSB from the measurement result,
and data output X register B contains the LSB from the measurement result. The value stored in these two registers is a
16-bit value in 2’s complement form, whose range is 0xF800 to 0x07FF. DXRA0 through DXRA7 and DXRB0 through
DXRB7 indicate bit locations, with DXRA and DXRB denoting the bits that are in the data output X registers. DXRA7 and
DXRB7 denote the first bit of the data stream. The number in parenthesis indicates the default value of that bit.
In the event the ADC reading overflows or underflows for the given channel, or if there is a math overflow during the bias
measurement, this data register will contain the value -4096. This register value will clear when after the next valid
measurement is made.
