Power consumption can be reduced significantly by
shutting down the MAX1240/MAX1241 between con-
versions. Figure 6 shows a plot of average supply cur-
rent versus conversion rate. Because the MAX1241
uses an external reference voltage (assumed to be pre-
sent continuously), it “wakes up” from shutdown more
quickly (in 4µs) and therefore provides lower average
supply currents. The wake-up time (t
from when SHDN is deasserted to the time when a con-
version may be initiated (Figure 5). For the MAX1240,
this time depends on the time in shutdown (Figure 7)
because the external 4.7µF reference bypass capacitor
loses charge slowly during shutdown.
The actual conversion does not require the external
clock. This allows the conversion result to be read back
at the µP’s convenience at any clock rate from up to
2.1MHz. The clock duty cycle is unrestricted if each
clock phase is at least 200ns. Do not run the clock
while a conversion is in progress.
Conversion-start and data-read operations are controlled
by the CS and SCLK digital inputs. The timing diagrams
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 must be kept low during the conver-
sion. An internal register stores the data when the con-
version is in progress.
