Yes and no. You could but then the AD7780 asserts SDO/RDY whenever a new sample is available. No way to stop it, without utilizing PDRST. I therefore use spi bus locking and keep the part in reset/power down whenever is should be quiet. The part also lacks a dedicated spi chip select. So we definitely want to use PDRST. > If not, then check for pdata early in probe and fail if not present.

Yes Thanks for the review.
