PRODUCTION DATA
In auto-sequence mode, the internal channel sequencer switches the multiplexer to the next analog input channel after every conversion. The desired analog input channels can be configured for sequencing in the AUTO_SEQ_CH_SEL register. To enable the channel sequencer, set SEQ_START = 1b. After every conversion, the channel sequencer switches the multiplexer to the next analog input in ascending order. To stop the channel sequencer from selecting channels, set SEQ_START = 0b.
In the example shown in Figure 6-1, AIN2 and AIN6 are enabled for sequencing in AUTO_SEQ_CH_SEL. The channel sequencer loops through AIN2 and AIN6 and repeats until SEQ_START is set to 0b. The number of clocks required for reading the output data depends on the device output data frame size; see the Output Data Format section for more details.
