Terminology ク Terminology Endian For device which data is more than 9bit, which order will be used to write BufferData (Byte=8bit) to IC? Refer to Little endian and Big endian ※Default is Little endian. <Little endian> "Little Endian" means that the low-order byte of the number is stored in memory at the lowest address, and the high-order byte at the highest address.
