INTERRUPT MASK REGISTER (IMR)
0FH (WRITE)
The Interrupt Mask Register is used to mask interrupts. Each interrupt mask bit corresponds to a bit in the Interrupt Status
Register (ISR). If an interrupt mask bit is set, an interrupt will be issued whenever the corresponding bit in the ISR is set. If any bit
in the IMR is set low, an interrupt will not occur when the bit in the ISR is set.
The IMR powers up to all zeroes.
