Block request: MCP3202/4/8

[Steph-Parallax]

Would love a block for the ADC0831.
OR another DIP ADC. Selecting parts to recommend.

[MatzElectronics]

The ADC0831 needs a 5V supply, making a bit of a non-starter for the FLiP. Changed to MCP3201-MCP3208

[MatzElectronics]

Also need to add support for MCP300X (or verify that the MCP320X protocol works with it)

[JonMcPhalen]

The MCP300x are 10-bit parts, the MCP320x are 12-bit parts.

[MatzElectronics]

Correct, but it might be possible for them to be compatible protocol-wise, with the 10 bit ones always reporting 0's for the last two bits.

Tested against MCP3204 - Failed:

• Function is trying to bring data in on the IN pin - switch to out.
• The channel selection binary does not seem to change appropriately
