BUFFOUT BUFFIN
S/D conversion modes with a cyclic conversion, such as 0x08, 0x09, 0x0A, are not permitted during
signal calibration. Cyclic BiSS data requests must also be avoided due to its trigger for sample-and-hold.
Analog calibration signals are output via 5 kΩ source impedance. The maximum permissible signal
frequency is 2 kHz for a load of 200 pF (see Elec. Char. 709, 710)
* Bypass function: inputs (without voltage divider) to outputs, ca. 7 kΩ source impedance
