Initiate a scan by writing a byte to the conversion regis-
ter. The MAX1226/MAX1228/MAX1230 then power up,
scan all requested channels, store the results in the
FIFO, and shut down. After the scan is complete, EOC
is pulled low and the results are available in the FIFO. If
a temperature measurement is requested, the tempera-
ture result precedes all other FIFO results. EOC stays
low until CS is pulled low again. Externally Clocked Acquisitions and

Performing Conversions in Clock Mode 11
In clock mode 11, acquisitions and conversions are ini-
tiated by writing to the conversion register and are per-
formed one at a time using the SCLK as the conversion
clock. Scanning and averaging are disabled, and the
conversion result is available at DOUT during the con-
version. See Figure 7 for clock mode 11 timing.
