DEVICE OPERATION AND DATA READ IN BACK-TO-BACK CONVERSION
The following two figures illustrate device operation in back-to-back conversion mode. It is possible to operate
the device at any throughput in this mode, but this is the only mode in which the device can be operated at
throughputs exceeding 3.5 MSPS.
A conversion starts on the CONVST falling edge. The BUSY output goes high after a delay (t
d2
). Note that care
must be taken not to abort the conversion (see Figure 4) apart from timing restrictions shown in Figure 7 and
Figure 8. The conversion ends within the conversion time, t
(conv)
, after the CONVST falling edge. The new
acquisition can be immediately started without waiting for the BUSY signal to go low. This can be ensured with
a CONVST high pulse width that is more than or equal to (t
0
– t
(conv)
+ 10 nsec) which is t
w4
for a 4-MHz operation.
