APPLICATIONS
In the Internal SCK mode of operation, the SCK pin is an
output and the LTC2424/LTC2428 creates its own serial
clock by dividing the internal conversion clock by 8. In the
External SCK mode of operation, the SCK pin is used as
input. The internal or external SCK mode is selected on
power-up and then reselected every time a HIGH-to-LOW
transition is detected at the CSADC pin. If SCK is HIGH or
floating at power-up or during this transition, the converter
enters the internal SCK mode. If SCK is LOW at power-up
or during this transition, the converter enters the external
SCK mode.
Multiplexer Serial Input Clock (CLK)
Generally, this pin is externally tied to SCK for 4-wire op-
eration. On the rising edge of CLK (Pin 19) with CSMUX held
HIGH, data is serially shifted into the multiplexer. If CSMUX
is LOW the CLK input will be disabled and the channel
selection unchanged.
Serial Data Output (SDO)
The serial data output pin, SDO (Pin 24), drives the serial
data during the data output state. In addition, the SDO pin
is used as an end of conversion indicator during the
conversion and sleep states.
When CSADC (Pin 23) is HIGH, the SDO driver is switched
to a high impedance state. This allows sharing the serial
interface with other devices. If CSADC is LOW during the
convert or sleep state, SDO will output EOC. If CSADC is
LOW during the conversion phase, the EOC bit appears
HIGH on the SDO pin. Once the conversion is complete,
EOC goes LOW. The device remains in the sleep state until
the first rising edge of SCK occurs while CSADC = 0.
ADC Chip Select Input (CSADC)
The active LOW chip select, CSADC (Pin 23), is used to test
the conversion status and to enable the data output
transfer as described in the previous sections.

In addition, the CSADC signal can be used to trigger a new
conversion cycle before the entire serial data transfer has
been completed. The LTC2424/LTC2428 will abort any
serial data transfer in progress and start a new conversion
cycle anytime a LOW-to-HIGH transition is detected at the
CSADC pin after the converter has entered the data output
state (i.e., after the first rising edge of SCK occurs with
CSADC = 0).
Multiplexer Chip Select (CSMUX)
For 4-wire operation, this pin is tied directly to CSADC or
the output of an inverter tied to CSADC. CSMUX (Pin 20)
is driven HIGH during selection of a multiplexer channel.
On the falling edge of CSMUX, the selected channel is
enabled and drives MUXOUT.
Data Input (D
The data input to the multiplexer, D
program the multiplexer. The input channel is selected by
serially shifting a 4-bit input word into the D

into the multiplexer on the rising edge of CLK. Table 3
shows the logic table for channel selection. In order to

on the previously selected channel.
SERIAL INTERFACE TIMING MODES
The LTC2424/LTC2428’s 4-wire interface is SPI and
MICROWIRE compatible. This interface offers two modes
of operation. These include an internal or external serial
clock. The following sections describe both of these serial
interface timing modes in detail. For both cases the
converter can use the internal oscillator (F
= HIGH) or an external oscillator connected to the F
