Why not using the standard sampling_frequency[_available] attributes?

This isn't so clear to me. Is this saying that events do not work
while doing a buffered read? Do you need to do need to read the
in_voltage0_raw input to trigger an event?

This diagram show a PWM connected to the CNV pin on the ADC, but I
didn't see a pwms property in the DT bindings to describe this.

I didn't have time to read the full datasheet or look at the driver
code yet, but can do that next week.
