Help understanding the Arduino Uno

If you want to connect multiple MAX31856's to one microcontroller, have them share the SDI, SDO and SCK pins. Then assign each one a unique CS pin.

So, if you Connect the SCK pin to Digital #13 , Connect the SDO pin to Digital #12 ,Connect the SDI pin to Digital #11.

then you can have pin 10 for your SD card and 14 thermocouples.
