Writing bit 0 of register 0xB5 to ‘1’ will enable synchronous continuous strobe mode.
‘0’ is default and is asynchronous cont. strobe mode. A delay after the start of
integration, but before the first rising edge of synchronous continuous strobe can be
inserted up to 65535 µsec. This is done by writing the value in microseconds to
register 0xB6. Default is 0x00.
