Because, in non-delay cases, I found the values is not changed to be read when the driver is reading continuously at the different address. I means, if there is not regular amount of delay in r/w operations, the value is kept the previous value to be read by I2C operation. It's the same way in writing case. It's wierd. It might be different the kind of M-5MOLS sensor's FW and packaging type. But, I expect that the internal ARM core of M-5MOLS takes time to proceed something and to load values through I2C bus for the host process.
