1.8 Brown Out Conditions
When the supply voltage dips below about 2.7V, the internal registers, including the calibration coefficients and
all of the other registers, may lose their contents. When this happens the ADC will not perform as expected or
not at all after power is fully restored. While writing the desired information to all registers and performing a
calibration might sometimes cause recovery to full operation, the only sure recovery method is to reduce the
supply voltage to below 0.5V, then reprogram the ADC and perform a calibration after power is fully restored.
2.0 THE ANALOG MULTIPLEXER
For the ADC12038, the analog input multiplexer can be configured with 4 differential channels or 8 single ended
channels with the COM input as the zero reference or any combination thereof (see Figure 63). The difference
between the voltages at the V
REF
+
and V
REF
−
pins determines the input voltage span (V
REF
). The analog input
voltage range is 0 to V
A
+
. Negative digital output codes result when V
IN
−
> V
IN
+
. The actual voltage at V
IN
−
or V
IN
+
cannot go below AGND.

CH0, CH2, CH4, and CH6 can be assigned to the MUXOUT1 pin in the differential configuration, while CH1,
CH3, CH5, and CH7 can be assigned to the MUXOUT2 pin. In the differential configuration, the analog inputs
are paired as follows: CH0 with CH1, CH2 with CH3, CH4 with CH5 and CH6 with CH7. The A/DIN1 and A/DIN2
pins can be assigned positive or negative polarity.
With the single-ended multiplexer configuration, CH0 through CH7 can be assigned to the MUXOUT1 pin. The
COM pin is always assigned to the MUXOUT2 pin. A/DIN1 is assigned as the positive input; A/DIN2 is assigned
as the negative input. (See Figure 64).
The Multiplexer assignment tables for these ADCs (Table 2,Table 3, andTable 4) summarize the aforementioned
functions for the different versions of ADCs.
