4.2.3.4 Multi-Slope Linear Sweep
The multi-slope linear sweep function can sweep the output with different slopes by specifying the number
of slopes between 2 to 4.
When the first value is less than the last value, the step values are added. When the first value is larger than
the last value, the step values are subtracted.
