R/W Indicates a read from or a write to the addressed register.
R/W = '0' sets a write operation and the data are written to the specified register.
R/W = '1' sets a read-back operation. Bits A4 to A0 select the register to be read. The remaining bits
are don’t care bits. During the next SPI operation, the data appearing on SDO pin are from the
previously addressed register.
A4:A0 Address bits that specify which register is accessed.
DATA 14 data bits
