Hi Lorenzo!

thanks for the review!

I look at page 44, paragraph 9.6 about bits 4-5:

ODR_T_BATCH_[1:0]
Selects batch data rate (write frequency in FIFO) for temperature data
(00: Temperature not batched in FIFO (default);
01: 1.6 Hz;
10: 12.5 Hz;
11: 52 Hz)

That reads to me that I should actually add the odr for 1.6 and 12.5 Hz
and the above 26 Hz is wrong but the .odr_avl[1] = { 52000, 0x03 },
52000 milli-Hz is fine?

Yours,
