Mode 1 Timing Operation Diagram for High Sampling Performance and fourth read pulses, after the second conversion and A0 high, access the result from Channel B (V CS B1 and VB2 respectively). A0’s state can be changed any time after the CONVST goes high, i.e., track/holds into hold, and 400 ns prior to the next falling edge of CONVST. Data is read from the part via a 12-bit RD parallel data bus with standard CS and RD signal, i.e., the read operation consists of a negative going pulse on the CS pin combined with two negative going pulses on the RD pin (while DATAVA1VA2VA1 the CS is low), accessing the two 12-bit results. Once the read operation has taken place, a further 300 ns should be allowed before the next falling edge of CONVST to optimize the settling Figure 5c. Read Option B of the track/hold amplifier before the next conversion is initiated. With the internal clock frequency at its maximum (3.7 MHz—not A0 accessible externally), the achievable throughput rate for the part is 3.6 µs (conversion time) plus 100 ns (read time) plus 0.3 µs (acquisition time). This results in a minimum throughput CS time of 4 µs (equivalent to a throughput rate of 250 kHz). Read Options Apart from the read operation described above and displayed in RD Figure 5a, other CS and RD combinations can result in different channels/inputs being read in different combinations. Suitable combinations are shown in Figures 5b through 5d. DATAVA1VB1 Figure 5d. Read Option C CSOPERATING MODES Mode 1 Operation (High Sampling Performance)RD The timing diagram in Figure 5a is for optimum performance in operating mode 1 where the falling edge of CONVST starts conversion and puts the track/hold amplifiers into their hold DATAVA1VA2 mode. This falling edge of CONVST also causes the BUSY signal to go high to indicate that a conversion is taking place. The BUSY signal goes low when the conversion is complete, Figure 5b. Read Option A which is 3.6 µs max after the falling edge of CONVST, and new data from this conversion is available in the output latch of the AD7862. A read operation accesses this data. If the multiplexer select A0 is low, the first and second read pulses after the first conversion access the result from Channel A (VA1 and VA2 REV. 0 –9–
