0x2B: CTRL_REG2 System Control 2 Register
ST bit activates the self-test function. When ST is set, X, Y, and Z outputs will shift. RST bit is used to activate the software reset.
The reset mechanism can be enabled in STANDBY and ACTIVE mode.
When the reset bit is enabled, all registers are rest and are loaded with default values. Writing ‘1’ to the RST bit immediately
resets the device, no matter whether it is in ACTIVE/WAKE, ACTIVE/SLEEP, or STANDBY mode.
The I
2
C communication system is reset to avoid accidental corrupted data access.
At the end of the boot process the RST bit is deasserted to 0. Reading this bit will return a value of zero.
The (S)MODS[1:0] bits select which Oversampling mode is to be used shown in Table 58. The Oversampling modes are
available in both WAKE Mode MOD[1:0] and also in the SLEEP Mode SMOD[1:0].
