single conversion mode

In single conversion mode, a single conversion of the selected analog input channels is performed. The single

conversion mode is selected by setting bit 1 of control register 0 to 1.

A single conversion is initiated by pulsing the CONVST input. On the falling edge of CONVST, the sample and

hold stages of the selected analog inputs are placed into hold simultaneously, and the conversion sequence

for the selected channels is started.

The conversion clock in single conversion mode is generated internally using a clock oscillator circuit. The signal

DATA_AV (data available) becomes active when the trigger level is reached and indicates that the converted

sample(s) is (are) written into the FIFO and can be read out. The trigger level in the single conversion mode

can be selected according to Table 13.

Figure 1 shows the timing of the single conversion mode. In this mode, up to four analog input channels can

be selected to be sampled simultaneously (see Table 2).
