These bits must be cleared for correct operation.
Regulator Enabled Bit. This bit is set when the internal
voltage regulator is enabled. This bit is cleared when the
internal regulator is disabled.

Identification Register A
LOCK
RDY
Data output register lock. This bit is set when this some but
not all for of the six data output registers have been read.
When this bit is set, the six data output registers are locked
and any new data will not be placed in these register until
on of four conditions are met: one, all six have been read
or the mode changed, two, a POR is issued, three, the
mode is changed, or four, the measurement is changed.
Ready Bit. Set when data is written to all six data registers.
Cleared when device initiates a write to the data output
registers, when in off mode, and after one or more of the
data output registers are written to. When RDY bit is clear
it shall remain cleared for a minimum of 5 µs. DRDY pin
can be used as an alternative to the status register for
monitoring the device for conversion data.
Table 21: Status Register Bit Designations
The identification register A is used to identify the device. IRA0 through IRA7 indicate bit locations, with IRA denoting the
bits that are in the identification register A. IRA7 denotes the first bit of the data stream. The number in parenthesis
indicates the default value of that bit.
The identification value for this device is stored in this register. This is a read-only register.
