The CS5012A/14/16 internally operate from a
clock which is delayed and divided down from
To achieve maximum throughput, sampling can
be synchronized with the internal conversion
clock by connecting the End-of-Track (EOT) out-
put to HOLD (Figure 3b). The EOT output falls
15 CLKIN cycles after EOC indicating the ana-
log input has been acquired to the
CS5012A/14/16’s specified accuracy. The EOT
output is synchronized to the internal conversion
clock, so the four clock cycle synchronization un-
certainty is removed yielding throughput at
CLKIN (f
/4). If sampling is not synchronized
CLK
to this internal clock, the conversion cycle may
not begin until up to four clock cycles after
HOLD goes low even though the charge is
trapped immediately. In this asynchronous mode
(Figure 3a), the four clock cycles add to the mini-
mum 49, 57 and 65 clock cycles (for the
CS5012A/14/16 respectively) to define the maxi-
mum conversion time (see Figure 5a and
Table 1).
