Thanks , it was a great help knowing that's all I needed to look at. 

I now have the platform and /dev drivers and my userland C code to work with. 

Am I correct in thinking that the primary limit on sampling freq is the timer 
resolution? It seems it can't do much better than 10kS/s on single channel 
readings.

What would be the best strategy for approaching the 100k limit of the MAX chip? 
I know I won't get there but I'm interested in the limits of the board.

Oh, and thanks for a nice clean example of how to write a kernel driver. ;)
