9.4.3.4. Data Skip
When Nth data was not read before (N+1)th measurement ends, Data Ready remains until data is read. In
this case, a set of measurement data is skipped so that DOR bit turns to “1”.
When data reading started after Nth measurement ended and did not finish reading before (N+1)th
measurement ended, Nth measurement data is protected to keep correct data. In this case, a set of
measurement data is skipped and not stored so that DOR bit turns to “1”.
In both case, DOR bit turns to “0” at the next start of data reading.
