The GUI also displays the three temperature-sensor measurements in degrees
Celsius (°C). The internal device temperature measures the IC die temperature.
For the external temperature measurements, add diode-connected transistors
sensors such as a 2N3906 to each channel. If the pins are left open, then the
temperature typically shows ~380°C. This is normal.

5.3 Sampling
The flexibility of the MAX11300 supports different modes of operation, including
different sampling schemes:
a. Scan Once: In this mode, the software reads the status of each input port a

single time and displays the value of each port.

b. Scan Continuously: In this mode, the software continually loops, reading all

input ports and updating the display to show the value of each port.

c. Sample Delay: This drop-down menu allows the user to select up to 1030µs

delay. This delay is enabled by the GUI between each complete sequence of
ADC read. See Figure 13.
