Notes:
1) For c=0 and d=0 , chopping and dechopping is switched off and every cycle is active regardless
of mm, i.e. the sampling frequenzy is higher by a factor of 4

Note:
1) combinations from B to E are reserved for test
2) this mode delivers the AD-values without calibration and averaging but multiplied by a factor which is dependent on the
setting of the oversampling ratio. It can be used for high resolution measurements of very low signals since it eliminates
the internal rounding error.
The ratio between raw result (Nr) and normal result (Nn) is given by: Nr/Nn = 2^(11+x)/CAL where x=6 for R=128 and x=3
for R=64. CAL is the calibration constant used.

Notes:
1) This register defines the measurement channel B configuration, the functions of the subregisters are the same as
described above for measurement channel A
2) Default power-up state before any setting
3) In this mode the chip cannot measure the current sensing input RSHH-RSHL, therefore M1=0 for all settings
