AD7851
Writing to the AD7851
For accessing the on-chip registers, it is necessary to write to the
part. To enable Serial Interface Mode 1, the user must also write
to the part. Figures 41, 42, and 43 shows how to configure the
AD7851 for each of the different serial interface modes. The
continuous loops on all diagrams indicate the sequence for more
than one conversion. The options of using a hardware (pulsing
the CONVST pin) or software (setting the CONVST bit to 1)
conversion start, and reading/writing during or after conversion
are shown in Figures 41 and 42. If the CONVST pin is never
used, then it should be tied to DVDD permanently. Where refer-
ence is made to the BUSY bit equal to a Logic 0, to indicate the
end of conversion, the user in this case would poll the BUSY bit
in the status register.
Interface Modes 2 and 3 Configuration
Figure 41 shows the flowchart for configuring the part in Inter-
face Modes 2 and 3. For these interface modes, the read and
write operations take place simultaneously via the serial port.
Writing all 0s ensures that no valid data is written to any of the
registers. When using the software conversion start and transfer-
ring data during conversion, the Figure 41 note must be obeyed.

NOTE: WHEN USING THE SOFTWARE CONVERSION START AND

THE CONTROL REGISTER WRITE OPERATION EXTENDS BEYOND THE
FALLING EDGE OF BUSY. THE FALLING EDGE OF BUSY RESETS THE
CONVST BIT TO 0 AND ONLY AFTER THIS TIME CAN IT BE REPROGRAMMED
TO 1 TO START THE NEXT CONVERSION.
