Connecting DIN to VDD2 shifts in control bytes of $FFh, which trigger single-ended conversions (bit RANGE (page 15)
= 1) on CH7 without powering down between conversions. The SSTRB output pulses high for one clock period before
the MSB of the 10-bit conversion result is shifted out of DOUT. Varying the analog input to CH7 will alter the sequence
of bits from DOUT. A total of 16 clock cycles is required per conversion.
Note: All SSTRB and DOUT output transitions occur 25ns (typ) after the rising edge of SCLK.
