3.3V

Output

+3.3 V power output.

5V

Output

+5 V power output.

CS <0..3>

Output

SPI with 3.3 V output, 3.3 V-/5 V-compatible input. Refer to the

MOSI

Output

MISO

Input

GND

Reference for digital lines and +3.3 V and +5.5 V power output.

Signal Ground References

To minimize noise on analog measurement channels, use the ground reference of the
corresponding port. For example, when you are using AI, the measurement should reference
the GND of the AI port.
