Bit Name Description (continued)
Low Byte
7-0 D<7..0> These bits contain the low byte of the straight binary result of a
12-bit A/D conversion. The first of two consecutive readings of
the A/D FIFO Register always return this byte.

Bit Name Description
High Byte
7-0 D<15..8> These bits contain the high byte of the 16-bit, sign-extended two's
complement result of a 12-bit A/D conversion. Values made up of
D<15..0>, therefore, range from -2,048 to +2,047 decimal (F800 to
07FF hex). Two's complement mode is useful for bipolar analog
input readings because the values read reflect the polarity of the
input signal.
Low Byte
7-0 D<7..0> These bits contain the low byte of the 16-bit, sign-extended two's
complement result of a 12-bit A/D conversion. The first of two
consecutive readings of A/D FIFO Register always returns this
byte.
