ADC088S022: 1 read lag when switching channel

Part Number: ADC088S022

Hi,

I use the ADC088S022 converter and when i change the channel i want to read from i first get the previous channel value

and only then (on the next read) the value from the desired channel.

are you aware of such behavior? 

thanx

  • Hello,
    the behavior you are seeing is correct, this is a multiplexed device, which means the MUX must first be programmed, only after that can the channel be sampled. thus:
    In frame n, you enter the address of the channel you want sampled, say channel 4.
    Then in frame n+1, you will see results for channel 4. During frame n+1 you can also program to sample another channel, say channel 6.
    You will see the results of channel 6 in the following frame.

    Hope this helps
    Regards, Cynthia
