*
* This example code demonstrates how to setup a custom GpioProvider
* for analog output pin using the MCP3204 ADC chip. This example
* configures the MCP3204 without background monitoring and eventing.
*
*
*
* This GPIO provider implements the MCP3204 12-Bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) as native Pi4J GPIO pins.
*
*
*
* The MCP3204 is connected via SPI connection to the Raspberry Pi and provides 8 GPIO analog input pins.

// Well, that depends on how you plan on integrating this into your project.
// If you need/want pin event notification, then you must keep the background
// monitoring thread enabled. If you only need to periodically obtain analog
// input conversion values or only need to acquire the value as the result of
// some other event or condition in your application, then you can disable the
// background monitoring thread to reduce the runtime overhead.
// If its disabled, then anytime you request the pin.getValue() to get an analog
// conversion value it will get the value directly from the ADC chip synchronously
// in your process call. If background monitoring is enabled, then calls to
// pin.getValue() return you the last acquired (cached) value and does not
// perform an immediate data acquisition.
// Provision gpio analog input pins for all channels of the MCP3204.
