Reading a Conversion Result

Reading During a Conversion

Figures 7 and 8 show the interface signals to initiate a
read operation during a conversion cycle. These figures
show two channels selected for conversion. If more
channels are selected, the results are available succes-
sively at every EOC falling edge. CS can be low at all
times, low during the RD cycles, or the same as RD.

After initiating a conversion by bringing CONVST high,
wait for EOC to go low. In internal clock mode, EOC
goes low within 900ns. In external clock mode, EOC
goes low on the rising edge of the 13th CLK cycle. To
read the conversion result, drive CS and RD low to
latch data to the parallel digital output bus. Bring RD

high to release the digital bus. In internal clock mode,
the next EOC falling edge occurs within 225ns. In exter-
nal clock mode, the next EOC falling edge occurs in
three CLK cycles. When the last result is available
EOLC goes low.

Reading After Conversion

Figure 9 shows the interface signals for a read operation
after a conversion with all eight channels enabled. At
the falling of EOLC, driving CS and RD low places the
first conversion result onto the parallel bus. Successive
low pulses of RD place the successive conversion
results onto the bus. When the last conversion results in
the sequence are read, additional read pulses wrap the
pointer back to the first converted result.
