Channel Power Down Register (address = 02h)

This register powers down individual channels that are not included for sequencing in AUTO_RST mode. The default value for this register is 00h, which implies that in default condition all channels are powered up. If all channels are powered down (that is, the value for this register is FFh), then the analog front-end circuits for all channels are powered down and the output of the ADC contains invalid data. If the device is in MAN-Ch_n mode and the selected channel is powered down, then the device yields invalid output that can also trigger a false alarm condition.

Shading indicates bits or registers that are not included in the 4-channel version of the device. A write operation on any of these bits or registers has no effect on device behavior. A read operation on any of these bits or registers outputs all 1's on the SDO line.
