3.13 Synchronizing Multiple Converters

Many measurement systems have multiple converters that need to operate synchronously. The convert-
ers should all be driven from the same master clock. In this configuration, the converters will convert syn-
chronously if the same CONV signal is used to drive all the converters, and CONV falls on a falling edge
of MCLK. If CONV is held low continuously, reset (RST) can be used to synchronize multiple converters
if RST is released on a falling edge of MCLK.
