SBAS905C November 2019 – July 2020 ADS8686S
PRODUCTION DATA
The ADS8686S can operate in hardware or software mode of operation. The logic level of HW_RNGSEL[1:0] when the device is released from a full reset determines the mode of operation. If HW_RNGSEL[1:0] = 0b00, the device enters software mode, for any other setting the hardware mode is selected.
Communicate with the device using any of the three interfaces: parallel, parallel byte, or serial. The interface is selected based on the logic levels of the SERIAL/BYTE/ PAR pin (pin 40) and the DB9/BYTESEL pin (pin 54) when the device is released from a full reset.
In hardware mode, capture the conversion data from the device using the interface selected. All other device settings are controlled by the device pin control.
In software mode, the conversion data can be captured and programmed, and the on-chip registers contents can be read using the interface selected.
