Figure 13. Two LTC1609s Cascaded
Together Using the TAG Input
bit will be shifted out on the following clock pulse before
the MSB from device #2 becomes available (Figure 14).
The reason for this is the MSB from device #2 will not be
valid soon enough to meet the minimum setup time of
device #1’s TAG input. A minimum of 34 clock pulses are
needed to shift out the results from both LTC1609s
assuming the data is captured on the falling clock edge.
Using the highest frequency permitted for DATACLK
(20MHz), a 200kHz throughput can still be achieved.
