detailed description (continued)

There are six basic serial interface timing modes that can be used with the device. These modes are determined

by the speed of I/O CLOCK and the operation of CS as shown in Table 1. These modes are (1) a fast mode with

a 10-clock transfer and CS inactive (high) between conversion cycles, (2) a fast mode with a 10-clock transfer

and CS active (low) continuously, (3) a fast mode with an 11- to 16-clock transfer and CS inactive (high) between

conversion cycles, (4) a fast mode with a 16-bit transfer and CS active (low) continuously, (5) a slow mode with

an 11- to 16-clock transfer and CS inactive (high) between conversion cycles, and (6) a slow mode with a

16-clock transfer and CS active (low) continuously.

The MSB of the previous conversion appears on DATA OUT on the falling edge of CS in mode 1, mode 3, and

mode 5, on the rising edge of EOC in mode 2 and mode 4, and following the 16th clock falling edge in mode 6.

The remaining nine bits are shifted out on the next nine falling edges of I/O CLOCK. Ten bits of data are

transmitted to the host through DATA OUT. The number of serial clock pulses used also depends on the mode

of operation, but a minimum of ten clock pulses is required for conversion to begin. On the 10th clock falling

edge, the EOC output goes low and returns to the high logic level when conversion is complete and the result

can be read by the host. On the 10th clock falling edge, the internal logic takes DATA OUT low to ensure that

the remaining bit values are zero if the I/O CLOCK transfer is more than ten clocks long.

Table 1 lists the operational modes with respect to the state of CS, the number of I/O serial transfer clocks that

can be used, and the timing edge on which the MSB of the previous conversion appears at the output.

fast modes

The device is in a fast mode when the serial I/O CLOCK data transfer is completed before the conversion is

completed. With a 10-clock serial transfer, the device can only run in a fast mode since a conversion does not

begin until the falling edge of the 10th I/O CLOCK.

mode 1: fast mode, CS inactive (high) between conversion cycles, 10-clock transfer

In this mode, CS is inactive (high) between serial I/O CLOCK transfers and each transfer is ten clocks long. The

falling edge of CS begins the sequence by removing DATA OUT from the high-impedance state. The rising edge

of CS ends the sequence by returning DATA OUT to the high-impedance state within the specified delay time.

Also, the rising edge of CS disables the I/O CLOCK and ADDRESS terminals within a setup time plus two falling

edges of the internal system clock.

mode 2: fast mode, CS active (low) continuously, 10-clock transfer

In this mode, CS is active (low) between serial I/O CLOCK transfers and each transfer is ten clocks long. After

the initial conversion cycle, CS is held active (low) for subsequent conversions; the rising edge of EOC then

begins each sequence by removing DATA OUT from the low logic level, allowing the MSB of the previous

conversion to appear immediately on this output.
