I think you can always connect less ADCs than there are channels.
If you connect e.g. only one, you don't need any CHS signals.
If you connect e.g. two, you can use only one CHS signal.

AFAICS, you still have to use an external demux to create individual chip
selects from the single CS signal and (up to 3) CHS signals.
