APPLICATIONS
circuitry. In this mode, the ADC draws only 1.5mW of
power instead of 15mW (for minimum power, the logic
inputs must be within 500mV of the supply rails). The
wake-up time from Nap mode to active mode is 350ns. In
Sleep mode, power consumption is reduced to 19.5µW by
cutting off the supply to the comparator and reference.
Figure 11 illustrates power-down methods for the LTC1401.
The chip enters Nap mode by keeping the CLK signal low
and pulsing the CONV signal twice. For Sleep mode
operation, CONV signal should be pulsed four times while
CLK is kept low. NAP and SLEEP modes are activated on
the falling edge of the CONV pulse. By pulling SHDN low,
the LTC1401 enters Shutdown mode and power con-
sumption drops to 13.5µW.
Once SHDN goes high, the LTC1401 returns to active
mode or the LTC1401 returns to active mode by pulsing
the CLK signal if the device has entered Nap/Sleep mode.
During the transistion from Sleep mode to active mode,

time from Sleep mode is typically 3ms. A REFRDY signal

DIGITAL INTERFACE
The digital interface requires only three digital lines. CLK
and CONV are both inputs, and the D

Figures 12 and 13 show the digital timing waveform of the
LTC1401 during the Analog to Digital Conversion. The
CONV rising edge starts the conversion. Once initiated, it
can not be restarted until the conversion is completed. If
