8.5.4 Reading Data

Output pins DRDY and DOUT/DRDY (if the DRDYM bit is set high in the configuration register) transition low when new data are ready for retrieval. The conversion data are written to an internal data buffer. Data can be read directly from this buffer on DOUT/DRDY when DRDY falls low without concern of data corruption. An RDATA command does not have to be sent. Data are shifted out on the SCLK rising edges, MSB first, and consist of two bytes of data.

Figure 61 to Figure 63 show the timing diagrams for reading conversion data in continuous-conversion mode and single-shot mode when not using the RDATA command.

Data can also be read at any time without synchronizing to the DRDY signal using the RDATA command. When an RDATA command is issued, the conversion result currently stored in the data buffer is shifted out on DOUT/DRDY on the following SCLK rising edges. Data can be read continuously with the RDATA command as an alternative to monitoring DRDY or DOUT/DRDY. The DRDY pin can be polled after the LSB is clocked out to determine if a new conversion result was loaded. If a new conversion completes during the read operation but data from the previous conversion are read, then DRDY is low. Otherwise, if the most recent result is read, DRDY is high. Figure 64 and Figure 65 illustrate the behavior for both cases.
