As far as we can tell, yes.  We read the temp from the cached tree,
issue a simultanous, and read from the cached tree again, and the temp
is different.  We don't really have a "sure-fire" way of knowing that
its actually doing a conversion with the simultanous command, as its
possible that its converting again when we read.

We suspect the same is happening with the A2D, too.
