During the first 3 cycles of SCLK, the ADC is in the track mode, acquiring the input voltage. For the next 13
SCLK cycles the conversion is accomplished and the data is clocked out, MSB first, starting on the 5th clock. If
there is more than one conversion in a frame, the ADC will re-enter the track mode on the falling edge of SCLK
after the N*16th rising edge of SCLK, and re-enter the hold/convert mode on the N*16+4th falling edge of SCLK,
where "N" is an integer.
When CS is brought high, SCLK is internally gated off. If SCLK is stopped in the low state while CS is high, the
subsequent fall of CS will generate a falling edge of the internal version of SCLK, putting the ADC into the track
mode. This is seen by the ADC as the first falling edge of SCLK. If SCLK is stopped with SCLK high, the ADC
enters the track mode on the first falling edge of SCLK after the falling edge of CS.
During each conversion, data is clocked into the DIN pin on the first 8 rising edges of SCLK after the fall of CS.
For each conversion, it is necessary to clock in the data indicating the input that is selected for the conversion
after the current one. See Table 2 Table 3 and Table 4.
If CS and SCLK go low within the times defined by t
CSU
and t
CLH
, the rising edge of SCLK that begins clocking
data in at DIN may be one clock cycle later than expected. It is, therefore, best to strictly observe the minimum
t
CSU
and t
CLH
times given in the Timing Specifications.
There are no power-up delays or dummy conversions required with the ADC104S051. The ADC is able to
sample and convert an input to full conversion immediately following power up. The first conversion result after
power-up will be that of IN1.

ADC104S051 TRANSFER FUNCTION
The output format of the ADC104S051 is straight binary. Code transitions occur midway between successive
integer LSB values. The LSB width for the ADC104S051 is V
A
/1024. The ideal transfer characteristic is shown in
Figure 49. The transition from an output code of 00 0000 0000 to a code of 00 0000 0001 is at 1/2 LSB, or a
voltage of V
A
/2048. Other code transitions occur at steps of one LSB.
