CONVERTER OPERATION
Converter Operation Cycle
The LTC2446/LTC2447 are multichannel, multireference
high speed, delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters with
an easy to use 3- or 4-wire serial interface (see Figure 1).
Their operation is made up of three states. The converter
operating cycle begins with the conversion, followed by
the low power sleep state and ends with the data output/
input (see Figure 2). The 4-wire interface consists of serial
data input (SDI), serial data output (SDO), serial clock
(SCK) and chip select (CS). The interface, timing, opera-
tion cycle and data out format is compatible with Linear’s
entire family of
Σconverters.
Initially, the LTC2446/LTC2447 perform a conversion.
Once the conversion is complete, the device enters the
