MAX44000 programming Error- ( mbed assertation failed: )

I am trying to program MAX44000 PMB1 (Proximity Sensor) with MAX32630FTHR Board. But after running the sample program (file attached), I get the error -

"Initialized MAX44000 mbed assertation failed: stop != 0, file: C:\Jenkins\workspace\mbed-2-build-library\targets\TARGET_Maxim\TARGET_MAX32630\i2c_api.c, line 103 "

Please help me in programming MAX44000 peripheral module with MAX32630 FTHR Board.

There seems to be a MBED OS5 compatibility with this library. I tested with the MAX32630FTHR and was able to observe the same issue. You should be able to replace the library with the following code.

MAX44000.h

#ifndef _MAX44000_H_
#define _MAX44000_H_

#include "mbed.h"

/**

 * //I2C i2c(P3_4, P3_5); //MAX32630FTHR
 * MAX44000 proximity(i2c, MAX44000::I2C_ADRS_SDO_HI);
 * 
 *  
 * int main(void)
 * {
 *     uint8_t reg_data;
 * 
 * 
 *     while(1) {
 *         if (proximity.init(MAX44000::MODE_ALS_PROX, MAX44000::ALSTIM_1X, MAX44000::ALSPGA_128X, MAX44000::DRV_110) != 0) {
 *             printf("Error communicating with MAX44000\n");
 *         } else {
 *             printf("Initialized MAX44000\n");
 *             break;
 *         }
 *         wait(1);
 *     }
 * 
 * 
 *     while(1) {
 * 
 *         int alsValue = proximity.readALS();
 *         if(alsValue < 0) {
 *             printf("Error reading ALS value\n");
 *         }
 * 
 *         int proxValue = proximity.readRegister(MAX44000::REG_PRX_DATA, reg_data);
 *         if(proxValue < 0) {
 *             printf("Error reading proximity value\n");
