AD7949
Data Sheet
The register can be written to during conversion, during acquisi-
tion, or spanning acquisition/conversion, and is updated at the end
of conversion, tCONV (maximum). There is always a one deep
delay when writing the CFG register. Note that, at power-up, the
CFG register is undefined and two dummy conversions are
required to update the register. To preload the CFG register with a
factory setting, hold DIN high for two conversions. Thus
CFG[13:0] = 0x3FFF. This sets the AD7949 for the following:
• IN[7:0] unipolar referenced to GND, sequenced in order
• Full bandwidth for a one-pole filter
• Internal reference/temperature sensor disabled, buffer
enabled
• Enables the internal sequencer
• No readback of the CFG register
Table 9 summarizes the configuration register bit details. See
the Theory of Operation section for more details.
