FT232H with MAX31855 thermocouple IC

MAX31855 is a SPI read-only device that ADC thermocouple voltage into digital temperature readings. Conveniently, here is a breakout board for k-type thermocouple by digilent.

To continue the tradition of fast hardware prototyping with FTDI MPSSE capabilities, the following is the simplest line of code to read out the temperature in Celsius.
