PRODUCTION DATA
The DAV pin and the DAVF (data available flag) bit in AFE configuration register 0 provide handshaking with the host. Pin and bit status depend on the conversion mode (direct or auto); see Figure 7-19 and Figure 7-20. In direct mode, after ADC-n-data registers of all selected channels are updated, the DAVF bit in AFE configuration register 0 is set immediately to 1, and the DAV pin is active (low) to signify that new data are available. By reading the ADC-n-data register or restarting through the external CNVT pin, the ADC clears the DAVF bit to 0 and deactivates the DAV pin (high). If an internal convert start (ICONV bit) is used to start the new ADC conversion, an ADC-n-data register must be read after the current conversion completes before a new conversion can be started to reset the DAV status.
In auto-mode, after the ADC-n-data registers of the selected channels are updated, a pulse of 1 µs (low) appears on the DAV pin to signify that new data are available. However, the DAVF bit is always cleared to 0 in auto-mode.
