No Command will be executed.
Write the data contained in Data Byte to the
potentiometer(s) determined by the potenti-
ometer selection bits.
Potentiometer(s) determined by potentiome-
ter selection bits will enter Shutdown Mode.
Data bits for this command are ‘don’t cares’.

Data Registers are
loaded on rising
edge of CS. Shift
register is loaded
with zeros at this time.
SO pin will always
drive low when CS
goes high.
