Configures the number of delay cycles before an initiation of ramp sequence. Each
delay cycle consists of n switching cycles, as specified by
SWITCH_CYC_PER_STEP (Bits 6-0). Number of delay cycles can vary from 0 to
65535
0 = Ramp starts without delay (Default)
1 = Ramp starts after (1*SWITCH_CYC_PER_STEP) switching cycles
2 = Ramp starts after (2*SWITCH_CYC_PER_STEP) switching cycles
…….
65535 = Ramp starts after (65535*SWITCH_CYC_PER_STEP) switching cycles

000 0000 Selects number of switching cycles per DAC step. Number of subcycles can vary
from 1 to 128.
0 = 1 switching cycle per step (Default)
1 = 2 subcycles per cycle
2 = 3 subcycles per cycle
…….
127 = 128 subcycles per cycle
