Note 1: 

Each of the four DAC8554 outputs controls a VOUTx and IOUTx channel-pair simultaneously. 
So, for example, when writing to channel VOUT0, the associated IOUT0 channel will also be 
updated. Conversely, when writing to channel IOUT0, the associated VOUT0 channel is also 
updated. Unused VOUTx and IOUTx output channels should be left disconnected.
