Hello!
I am designing a circuit that wants 4 AD5144 chips to be daisy-chained together. The SPI bus that is interfaced with them is also shared with another chip that will be active when the ~SYNC pin on the digipots are pulled high (chip select disabled). When the ~SYNC pin is pulled high are the SDI and SDO pins pulled into a high impedance state? If they are not then there could be issues with the other chip that will be using the SPI lines during that time.
I am also curious if there is a maximum allowable number of the AD5144s that can be daisy-chained together? I was not able to find concrete information to answer either of these questions in the datasheet.
Thank you for the help!
