The ADC uses power-supply monitors to detect power-on and brownout events. Power-on or power-cycling the IOVDD supply results in device reset. Power-on or power-cycling the analog power supplies does not result in device reset.
Figure 7-7 shows the IOVDD and regulated CAPD power-on voltage thresholds. When the voltages exceed the thresholds, the ADC is released from reset after a time delay of td(RSSC). If the START pin is high, the ADC starts the conversion process and supplies data to the data port. The POR_FLAG bit of the SPI STATUS register and the PWR_FLAG of the data port header byte indicate device POR. Although not necessary for operation, write 1b to the POR_FLAG bit to clear the flag to detect the next POR event. The PWR_FLAG of the data port status byte remains disabled in hardware programming mode.
Figure 7-8 shows the analog power supply power-on thresholds. Four monitors are used for four supply conditions (AVDD1 – DGND), (AVDD1 – AVSS), (AVDD2 – AVSS), and the regulated CAPA voltage (CAPA – AVSS). The ALV_FLAG bit (SPI STATUS register) and the PWR_FLAG (data port header byte) latch to 1b when the analog supply voltages are below the threshold values. Although not necessary for operation, write 1b to the ALV_FLAG bit to clear the flag to detect the next analog supply low-voltage condition. Power cycling the analog power supplies does not reset the ADC. Because a low voltage on the IOVDD supply resets the internal analog LDO (CAPA), the analog low-voltage flag (ALV_FLAG) is also set. The PWR_FLAG of the data port status byte is disabled when the device is operated in the hardware programming mode.
