LTC1417
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Figure 21 shows the connections necessary for interfacing
the LTC1417 and LTC1391 8-channel signal acquisition
system to an SPI port. With the sample software routine
shown in Listing A, the SPI uses MOSI to send serial data
to the LTC1391 8-channel multiplexer, selecting one of
eight MUX channels.
While data is sent to the LTC1391, SPI uses MISO to
retrieve conversion data from the LTC1417. After the data
transfer is complete, the conversion start signal is sent to
the LTC1417. The end of conversion is signaled by a logic
high on the BUSY output. When this occurs, data is
exchanged between the LTC1417/LTC1391 and the
controller.
The timing diagram in Figure 22 shows the relation be-
tween MUX channel selection data and the conversion
data that are simultaneously exchanged. There is a two
conversion delay between the MUX data selects a given
channel and when that channel’s data is retrieved.
