PRODUCTION DATA
The NULL command is the no-operation command that results in no registers being read or written, and the state of the device remains unchanged. The intended use case for the NULL command is to read out conversion data for ADC1A and ADC1B.
The command response in the next frame indicates if an error occurred during the transmission of the NULL command frame. However, a NULL command is executed regardless if an error occurred or not.
Figure 9-31 shows a typical NULL command frame where no faults occurred during the communication.
