Exiting Power-Down Mode
To exit power-down mode, implement one dummy conver-
sion by driving CS low for at least 10 clock cycles (see
Figure 8). The data on DOUTA/DOUTB is invalid during
this dummy conversion. The first conversion following the
dummy cycle contains a valid conversion result.
The power-up time equals the duration of the dummy
cycle, and is dependent on the clock frequency. The
power-uptimeforthisdevice(48MHzSCLK)is333ns.
Supply Current vs. Sampling Rate
For applications requiring lower throughput rates, the user
can reduce the clock frequency (f
SCLK
) to lower the sam-
ple rate. Figure 10 shows the typical supply current (I
VDD
)
as a function of sample rate (f
S
) for the device. The part
operates in normal mode and is never powered down.
The user can also power down the ADC between conver-
sions by using power-down mode. Figure 11 shows this
device as the sample rate is reduced, the device remains
in the power-down state longer and the average supply
current (I
VDD
) drops accordingly.
