PRODUCTION DATA
The ADC has a set of internal registers that can be accessed by the serial interface formed by the SEN (serial interface enable), SCLK (serial interface clock), and SDATA (serial interface data) pins. Serial shift of bits into the device is enabled when SEN is low. Serial data SDATA are latched at every SCLK falling edge when SEN is active (low). The serial data are loaded into the register at every 16th SCLK falling edge when SEN is low. When the word length exceeds a multiple of 16 bits, the excess bits are ignored. Data can be loaded in multiples of 16-bit words within a single active SEN pulse. The first eight bits form the register address and the remaining eight bits are the register data. The interface can work with SCLK frequencies from 20 MHz down to very low speeds (of a few hertz) and also with non-50% SCLK duty cycle.
