Register Set

The TCS3472 is controlled and monitored by data registers and a command register accessed through the

serial interface. These registers provide for a variety of control functions and can be read to determine results

of the ADC conversions. The register set is summarized in Table 3.

control-status-data register for subsequent read/write operations.
