Module Parameters
-----------------
* se_input: bool (default Y)
Single ended operation - set to N for differential mode

Description
-----------
This driver implements support for the Texas Instruments ADS7828.
This device is a 12-bit 8-channel A-D converter.
It can operate in single ended mode (8 +ve inputs) or in differential mode,
where 4 differential pairs can be measured.
The chip also has the facility to use an external voltage reference. This
may be required if your hardware supplies the ADS7828 from a 5V supply, see
the datasheet for more details.
