There is no SPI or I2C bus, so reg doesn't make sense.

From the looks of the datasheet it seems like the light requires
a PWM rather than a GPIO to control it. I don't see how a GPIO
could be accurate enough in the timing.

For this, I would expect the same or a synchronized PWM output to trigger
the ADC in order to be able to get accurate enough timing.

And this would be the duty cycle of the light PWM.
