-- rng_in and bip_in will be copied to the RNG and BIP bits of the transferred
-- control byte. 
--
-- Result will be pacled in msb and lsb

-- Please check the datasheet for further explanations. 


procedure max127_read( byte in address, byte in channel, bit in rng_in, bit in bip_in, byte out msb, byte out lsb ) is

	var byte cnt = 4

	var byte control = 0b_1000_0000

	var bit bip at control : 2

	rng = rng_in
	bip = bip_in
	
	control = control | ( channel << 4)


	i2c_write_1( address, control )

	i2c_read_2( address, msb, lsb )


	-- shift the result right by 4 bits

	lsb = ( msb << 4 ) + ( lsb >> 4 )
	msb = ( msb >> 4 )

end procedure



-- Power down modes, to wake up the chip a call to max127_read should be enough.


-- standby power down

procedure max127_standby( byte in address ) is

	i2c_write_1( address, 0b_1000_0010 )

end procedure


-- full power down

procedure max127_powerdown( byte in address ) is

	i2c_write_1( address, 0b_1000_0011 )

end procedure
