To start a conversion, pull CS low. At CS’s falling edge,
the T/H enters its hold mode and a conversion is initiat-
ed. Data can then be shifted out serially with the exter-
nal clock.
Power consumption can be reduced significantly by
shutting down the MAX1284/MAX1285 between con-
versions. Figure 5 shows a plot of average supply cur-
rent versus conversion rate. The wake-up time (t
is the time from when SHDN is deasserted to the time
when a conversion may be initiated (Figure 6). This
time depends on the time in shutdown (Figure 7)
because the external 4.7µF reference bypass capacitor
loses charge slowly during shutdown and can be as
long as 2ms.

Conversion-start and data-read operations are con-
trolled by the CS and SCLK digital inputs. The timing dia-
grams of Figures 8 and 9 outline serial-interface
operation.
A CS falling edge initiates a conversion sequence: the
T/H stage holds the input voltage, the ADC begins to
convert, and DOUT changes from high impedance to
logic low. SCLK is used to drive the conversion
process, and it shifts data out as each bit of conversion
is determined.
SCLK begins shifting out the data after the rising edge
of the third SCLK pulse. DOUT transitions 20ns after
each SCLK rising edge. The third rising clock edge
produces the MSB of the conversion at DOUT, followed
by the remaining bits. Since there are twelve data bits
and three leading zeros, at least fifteen rising clock
edges are needed to shift out these bits. Extra clock
pulses occurring after the conversion result has been
clocked out, and prior to a rising edge of CS, produce
trailing zeros at DOUT and have no effect on converter
operation.
Pull CS high after reading the conversion’s LSB. For
maximum throughout, CS can be pulled low again to
initiate the next conversion immediately after the speci-
fied minimum time (t
The data output from the MAX1284/MAX1285 is binary,
and Figure 10 depicts the nominal transfer function.
