Bits 15:8 – Reserved
These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to 
zero when this register is written. These bits will always return zero when read.
z
Bits 7:0 – DATA[7:0]: Data
The master data register I/O location (DATA) provides access to the master transmit and receive data buffers. 
Reading valid data or writing data to be transmitted can be successfully done only when SCL is held low by the 
master (STATUS.CLKHOLD is set). An exception occurs when reading the last data byte after the stop condition 
has been sent.
Accessing DATA.DATA auto-triggers I
2
C bus operations. The operation performed depends on the state of 
CTRLB.ACKACT, CTRLB.SMEN and the type of access (read/write).
 Writing or reading DATA.DATA when not in smart mode does not require synchronization.
