AD7985
CS MODE, 3-WIRE WITHOUT BUSY INDICATOR
This mode is usually used when a single AD7985 is connected
to an SPI-compatible digital host. The connection diagram is
shown in Figure 26, and the corresponding timing is given in
Figure 27.
With SDI tied to VIO, a rising edge on CNV initiates a con-
version, selects CS mode, and forces SDO to high impedance.
When a conversion is initiated, it continues until completion,
irrespective of the state of CNV.

This can be useful, for example, to bring CNV low to select
other SPI devices, such as analog multiplexers; however, CNV
must be returned high before the minimum conversion time
elapses and then held high for the maximum possible
conversion time to avoid the generation of the busy signal
indicator.
When the conversion is complete, the AD7985 enters the
acquisition phase and powers down. When CNV goes low, the
MSB is output onto SDO. The remaining data bits are clocked
by subsequent SCK falling edges. The data is valid on both SCK
edges. Although the rising edge can capture the data, a digital host
using the SCK falling edge allows a faster reading rate, provided
that it has an acceptable hold time. After the 16th SCK falling edge
or when CNV goes high (whichever occurs first), SDO returns to
high impedance.
