11.4.5. Continuous Mode 0 (EMODE [2:0] = 100)
When Continuous Mode 0 (EMODE [2:0] = 100) is selected the measurement is automatically repeated
at the cycle which is determined by the digital filter cut-off frequency (EFC [2:0], Table 16.2).
When a measurement have been done, the measurement data is stored to the measurement register
(IR1L to TMPH), and new measurement is started. * Please refer to Table16.1 for first measurement
time.
This Mode is terminated by setting the AK9753 to Stand-by Mode (EMODE [2:0] = 000).
When EMODE [2:0] is re-written during a measurement, the measurement is interrupted. Then the last
data is retained to the register.
When Continuous Mode 0 is selected, a register write command should be executed. If register write
command should be executed during a measurement, a right measurement data cannot be gotten.

11.4.6. Continuous Mode 1,2,3 (EMODE [2:0] = 101, 110, 111)
When Continuous Mode 1, 2, and 3 (EMODE [2:0] = 101, 110, 111) are selected, a measurement
and a wait are automatically repeated at the cycle according to the selected measurement Mode
(EMODE [2:0]) and the digital filter cut-off frequency (EFC [2:0]).
A wait time length depends on the measurement Mode. When a measurement has been done, the
measurement data is stored to the measurement register (IR1L to TMPH).
This Mode is terminated by setting the AK9753 to Stand-by Mode (EMODE [2:0] = 000).
When EMODE [2:0] is re-written during a measurement, the measurement is interrupted. Then the last
data is retained to the register.
When Continuous Mode 1, 2, and 3 is selected, a register write command should be executed. If a
register write command should be executed during a measurement, a right measurement data cannot be
gotten. * Please refer to Table16.1 for first measurement time.
