TABLE II. Power Consumption versus CLK Input.
500kHz conversion rate.
Table II offers a look at the two different modes of operation
and the difference in power consumption.
LSB-FIRST DATA TIMING
Figure 5 shows a method to transmit the digital result in a
LSB format. This mode is entered when CONV is pulled
HIGH during the conversion (before the end of the 12th
clock) and then pulled LOW during the 13th clock (when
D0, the LSB, is being transmitted). The next 11 clocks then
repeat the serial data, but in an LSB-first format. The
converter enters the power-down mode during the 13th
clock and resumes normal operation when CONV goes

SHORT-CYCLE TIMING
The conversion currently in progress can be “short-cycled”
with the technique shown in Figure 6. This term means that
the conversion will terminate immediately, before all 12 bits
have been decided. This can be a very useful feature when
a resolution of 12 bits is not needed. An example would be
when the converter is being used to monitor an input voltage
until some condition is met. At that time, the full resolution
of the converter would then be used. Short-cycling the
conversion can result in a faster conversion rate or lower
power dissipation.
There are several very important items shown in Figure 6.
The conversion currently in progress is terminated when
CONV is taken HIGH during the conversion and then taken
LOW prior to t
Note that if CONV goes LOW during the 13th clock cycle,
the LSB-first mode will be entered (Figure 5). Additionally,
when CONV goes LOW, the DATA output immediately
transitions to high impedance. If the output bit that is present
during that clock period is needed, CONV must not go LOW
until the bit has been properly latched into the receiving
