8.2.2.1 Auto-Scan Sequencing Control Registers

In AUTO_RST mode, the device automatically scans the preselected channels in ascending order with a new channel selected for every conversion. Each individual channel can be selectively included in the auto channel sequencing. For channels not selected for auto sequencing, the analog front-end circuitry can be individually powered down.
