7.1 CHANNEL Registers –
ADC Channel Data Output
Registers
The ADC Channel Data Output registers always
contain the most recent A/D conversion data for each
channel. These registers are read-only and can be
accessed independently or linked together (with
READ<1:0> bits). These registers are latched when an
ADC read communication occurs. When a data ready
event occurs during a read communication, the most
current ADC data is also latched to avoid data
corruption issues. The three bytes of each channel are
updated synchronously at a DRCLK rate. The three
bytes can be accessed separately if needed but are
refreshed synchronously.

Legend:
R = Readable bit W = Writable bit U = Unimplemented bit, read as ‘0’
-n = Value at POR ‘1’ = Bit is set ‘0’ = Bit is cleared x = Bit is unknown
bit 23-0 DATA_CHn: Output code from ADC Channel n. This data is post-calibration if the EN_OFFCAL or
EN_GAINCAL bits are enabled.
