APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
WUU
U
Operation with D
IN
and D
OUT
Tied Together
The LTC1594L/LTC1598L can be operated with D
IN
and
D
OUT
tied together. This eliminates one of the lines
required to communicate to the microprocessor (MPU).
Data is transmitted in both directions on a single wire.
The processor pin connected to this data line should be
configurable as either an input or an output. The
LTC1594L/LTC1598L will take control of the data line
after CS falling and before the 6th falling CLK while the
processor takes control of the data line when CS is high
(see Figure 3). Therefore the processor port line must be
switched to an input with CS being low to avoid a conflict.
Separate Chip Selects for MUX and ADC
The LTC1594L/LTC1598L provide separate chip selects,
CSMUX and CSADC, to control MUX and ADC separately.
This feature not only provides the flexibility to select a
particular channel once for multiple conversions (see
Figure 4) but also maximizes the sample rate up to
20ksps (see Figure 5).
