Humm, ADAQ4003 datasheet has the same figure for CS Mode, 4-wire turbo mode
and CS mode, 4-wire with busy indicator although other datasheets have MOSI
to SDI in 4-wire turbo as you said. The register read/write functionality
sections say CNV must be brought low to access the configuration register.
I'll leave it as it is for now as I have not tested reg access with CNV high.
We can update this in the future if find out reg access to work in 4-wire mode.
