The LTC2309 awakens from either nap or sleep when
properly addressed for a read/write operation. A Stop
command may then be issued after performing the
read/write operation to trigger a new conversion.
Continuous Read
Issuing a Stop command after the 8th SCL clock pulse
of the address frame and before the completion of a
read/write operation will also initiate new conversion,
but the output result may not be valid due to lack of
adequate acquisition time (see Acquisition section).

operation, a Stop condition may be given to start a new

valid address selects the device, the LTC2309 gener-
ates a NAK signal indicating the conversion cycle is in
progress.
The LTC2309 has two address pins (AD0 and AD1) that
may be tied high, low, or left floating to enable one of
9 possible addresses (see Table 2).
In addition to the configurable addresses listed in
Table 2, the LTC2309 also contains a global address
(1110111) which may be used for synchronizing mul-
2
tiple LTC2309s or other I C LTC230X SAR ADCs (see
Synchronizing Multiple LTC2309s with Global Address
Call section).
