NOTE: (1) If EXT/INT is HIGH (external clock), DATACLK is HIGH, and CS is LOW during
this time, the shift register will not be updated and the conversion result will be lost.

READING DATA
The ADS7813’s digital output is in Binary Two’s Comple-
ment (BTC) format. Table III shows the relationship be-
tween the digital output word and the analog input voltage
under ideal conditions.

Figure 3 shows the relationship between the various digital
inputs, digital outputs, and internal logic of the ADS7813.
Figure 4 shows when the internal shift register of the
ADS7813 is updated and how this relates to a single conver-
sion cycle. Together, these two figures point out a very
important aspect of the ADS7813: the conversion result is
not available until after the conversion is complete. The
implications of this are discussed in the following sections.
NOTE: Update of the internal shift register occurs in the
shaded region. If EXT/INT is HIGH, then DATACLK
must be LOW or CS must be HIGH during this time.
