ADS1261: Period of keeping data

Part Number: ADS1261


Hi,

How long is conversed data kept?

Is it until starting the next conversion?

I would like to know if we can read out the previous data during conversion.

Best Regards,

Kuramochi

  • Hi Kuramochi,

    The data are buffered, thus it can be read at any time until the next conversion. The graph below shows /DRDY operation with and without data retrieval in the two modes of conversion (Continuous-conversion and Pulse-conversion). See the Data Ready (/DRDY) section for details.

    Note that old or new conversion data are returned  if the data are read near the completion of the next conversion. 

    Best regards,

    Dale
