Register #5 and #6 Ambient Light Result Register
Register address = 85h and 86h. These registers are the result registers for ambient light measurement readings.
The result is a 16 bit value. The high byte is stored in register #5 and the low byte in register #6.
Register #7 and #8 Proximity Measurement Result Register
Register address = 87h and 88h. These registers are the result registers for proximity measurement readings.
The result is a 16 bit value. The high byte is stored in register #7 and the low byte in register #8.
Register #9 Proximity Measurement Signal Frequency
Register address = 89h.

N/A Proximity frequency
Description
Bit 0 and 1
Proximity frequency
R/W bits. Setting the proximity IR test signal frequency. The proximity measurement is using a square IR
signal as measurement signal. Four different values are possible:
00 = 3.125 MHz
01 = 1.5625 MHz
02 = 781.25 kHz (DEFAULT)
03 = 390.625 kHz
