5Description:
6 By default (value '0'), the capture thread checks for the Conversion
7 Ready Flag to being set prior to committing a new value to the sample
8 buffer. This synchronizes the in-chip conversion rate with the
9 in-driver readout rate at the cost of an additional register read.
10
11 Writing '1' will remove the polling for the Conversion Ready Flags to
12 save the additional i2c transaction, which will improve the bandwidth
13 available for reading data. However, samples can be occasionally skipped
14 or repeated, depending on the beat between the capture and conversion
15 rates.

21Description:
22 The value of the shunt resistor may be known only at runtime fom an
23 eeprom content read by a client application. This attribute allows to
24 set its value in ohms.
