    <p>HI Jean-Pierre,<br>
    </p>
    <p>You should check if you can daisy-chain them, SDO to SDI of the
      next chip, and then treat them as one very long shift register. <br>
    </p>
    <p>No multiplexers, no capacitive loading on the processor pins, and
      simpler wiring.</p>
    <p>Best,</p>
    <p> René<br>
    </p>
