+SPI offload support
+-------------------
+
+To be able to achieve the maximum sample rate, the driver can be used with the
+`AXI SPI Engine`_ to provide SPI offload support.
+
+.. _AXI SPI Engine: http://analogdevicesinc.github.io/hdl/projects/ad738x_fmc/index.html
+
+When SPI offload is being used, some attributes will be different.
+
+* ``in_voltage-voltage_sampling_frequency`` attribute is added for setting the
+  sample rate.
+* ``in_voltage-voltage_sampling_frequency_available`` attribute is added for
+  querying the max sample rate.
+* ``timestamp`` channel is removed.
+* Buffer data format may be different compared to when offload is not used,
+  e.g. the ``buffer0/in_voltage0-voltage1_type`` and the
+  ``buffer0/in_voltage2-voltage3_type`` attributes.

+
+Effective sample rate for buffered reads
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Using SPI offload, the PWM generator drives the starting of the conversion by
+executing the pre-recorded SPI transfer at each PWM cycle, asserting CS and
+reading the previous available sample values for all channels.
+Default sample rate is set to a quite low frequency, to allow oversampling x32,
+user is then reponsible to adjust ``in_voltage-voltage_sampling_frequency`` for
+the specific case.
