ADS7952: Troubleshooting to get reliable readings from ADS7952 over mibSPI

Part Number: ADS7952
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS570LS1227

The objective: Configure ADS7952 to operate in Auto-2 mode, to read the temperature from 12 channels. The microcontroller used in this project is a TMS570LS1227.

Tried the following:

Sent configuration commands (as mentioned in the ADS7952 datasheet) to operate ADS7952 in Auto-2 mode. The ADS7952 starts conversion from CH0 and we configure the ADS7952 to stop at CH11 - the last channel. I've attached 1.5V to CH0 of ADS7952 - for debugging purposes. The data received back (after configuration) is 0x0200 and 0x0000 erratically - makes no sense. 

Things I've checked:

Verified all ADC power pins are at 3.3V and VREF is at 2.5V. 

If anyone has experience configuring an ADS7952, please guide me with what I should do to get reliable data from the ADS7952 as this is my first time working with an ADC as complicated as the 7952.

Looking forward to all the responses. Thank you for your time. 

Cheers.
