POWER-UP TIMES
The AD7822/AD7825/AD7829 have a 1 μs power-up time
when using an external reference and a 25 μs power-up time
when using the on-chip reference. When V
DD
is first connected,
the AD7822/AD7825/AD7829 are in a low current mode of
operation. Ensure that the
CONVST
line is not floating when
V
DD
is applied. If there is a glitch on
CONVST
while V
DD
is
rising, the part attempts to power up before V
DD
has fully settled
and can enter an unknown state. To carry out a conversion, the
AD7822/AD7825/AD7829 must first be powered up. The
AD7829 is powered up by a rising edge on the
CONVST
pin,
and a conversion is initiated on the falling edge of
CONVST
.
Figure 19 shows how to power up the AD7829 when V
DD
is first
connected or after the AD7829 has been powered down using
the
CONVST
pin when using either the on-chip reference or an
external reference. When using an external reference, the falling
edge of
CONVST
may occur before the required power-up time
has elapsed; however, the conversion is not initiated on the
falling edge of
CONVST
but rather at the moment when the
part has completely powered up, that is, after 1 μs. If the falling
edge of
CONVST
occurs after the required power-up time has
elapsed, then it is upon this falling edge that a conversion is
initiated. When using the on-chip reference, it is necessary to
wait the required power-up time of approximately 25 μs before
initiating a conversion; that is, a falling edge on
CONVST
must
not occur before the required power-up time has elapsed, when
V
DD
is first connected or after the AD7829 has been powered
down using the
CONVST
pin, as shown in Figure 19.

Figure 19. AD7829 Power-Up Time
Figure 20 shows how to power up the AD7822 or AD7825 when
V
DD
is first connected or after the ADCs have been powered down,
using the
PD
pin or the
CONVST
pin, with either the on-chip
reference or an external reference. When the supplies are first
connected or after the part has been powered down by the
PD
pin, only a rising edge on the
PD
pin causes the part to power
up. When the part has been powered down using the
CONVST
pin, a rising edge on either the
PD
pin or the
CONVST
pin powers
the part up again.
As with the AD7829, when using an external reference with the
AD7822 or AD7825, the falling edge of
CONVST
may occur
before the required power-up time has elapsed. If this is the
case, the conversion is not initiated on the falling edge of
CONVST
,
but rather at the moment when the part has powered up
completely, that is, after 1 μs. If the falling edge of
CONVST
occurs after the required power-up time has elapsed, it is upon
this falling edge that a conversion is initiated. When using the
on-chip reference, it is necessary to wait the required power-up
time of approximately 25 μs before initiating a conversion; that
is, a falling edge on
CONVST
must not occur before the
required power-up time has elapsed, when supplies are first
connected to the AD7822 or AD7825, or when the ADCs have
been powered down using the
PD
pin or the
CONVST
pin, as
shown in
Figure 20.
