3.5.2.6 Overview of Device Registers

Register 0x00 is the result register and provides the output data from the device as an exponent and mantissa value indicated as e and r in the register view.

Register 0x01 is the configuration register and provides feedback about the state of the device; the bit names and full descriptions are shown in the OPT3004 data sheet. Each of the read-only status bits are greyed out and cannot be changed.

Registers 0x02 and 0x03 enforce low and high limits, respectively, on the output ranges (exponent) and values (mantissa) from the OPT3004. These registers are not included in the register view.
