The serial interface supports streaming reads and writes. In this mode, the initial 24 bits of the transaction specifics the access type, register address, and data value as normal. Additional clock cycles of write or read data are immediately transferred, as long as the SCS input is maintained in the asserted (logic low) state. The register address auto increments (default) or decrements for each subsequent 8 bit transfer of the streaming transaction. The ADDR_ASC bit (register 000h, bits 5 and 2) controls whether the address value ascends (increments) or descends (decrements). Streaming mode can be disabled by setting the ADDR_HOLD bit in the USR0 register. Figure 7-6 shows the streaming mode transaction details.
