Oscillator and Timing Control

The device uses one of the two internal oscillators (low-power oscillator or high-speed oscillator) for converting the analog input voltage into a digital output code.

The steps for selecting the oscillator and setting the sampling speed are:

  1. Select the low-power oscillator (OSC_SEL = 1b) to monitor slow-moving signals (< 300 Hz) at extremely low-power consumption and sampling speeds (< 600 SPS). Select the high-speed oscillator (OSC_SEL = 0b) to scan the sensor signals with faster sampling speed (> 50 kHz).
  2. Set the sampling speed by programming the NCLK_SEL register:

Equation 2. GUID-D3A2B243-71C1-4278-AC75-115CC8396CD3-low.gif
  • fs = Sampling speed.
  • Oscillator frequency = 1 / tHSO or 1 / tLPO depending on the OSC_SEL bit; see the Section 6 section for 1 / tHSO or 1 / tLPO.
  • nCLK is the number of clocks in one conversion cycle (see the NCLK_SEL register).
