To achieve sampling rates other than 80MS/s, a number for scan
interval counter needs only be specified. For example, if the scan
interval counter is set as 2, the equivalent sampling rate is 80MS/s
/ 2 = 40MS/s. If as 3, the equivalent sampling rate is 80MS/s / 3 =
26.66MS/s, and vice versa. The scan interval counter is 16 bits in
width, therefore the lowest sampling rate is 1.221kS/s (80MS/s /
65535).
