POWER-DOWN (PWDN)
3. Detect for non-zero data in the powered-up
channel.
The channels of the ADS1274/78 can be
independently powered down by use of the PWDN
inputs. To enter the power-down mode, hold the
respective PWDN pin low for at least two CLK cycles.
To exit power-down, return the corresponding PWDN
pin high. Note that when all channels are powered
down, the ADS1274/78 enters a microwatt (μW)
power state where all internal biasing is disabled. In
this state, the TEST[1:0] input pins must be driven; all
other input pins can float. The ADS1274/78 outputs
remain driven.
After powering up one or more channels, the
channels are synchronized to each other. It is not
necessary to use the SYNC pin to synchronize them.
When a channel is powered down in TDM data
format, the data for that channel are either forced to
zero (fixed-position TDM data mode) or replaced by
shifting the data from the next channel into the
vacated data position (dynamic-position TDM data
mode).
In Discrete data format, the data are always forced to
As shown in Figure 75 and Table 13, a maximum of
130 conversion cycles must elapse for SPI interface,
and 129 conversion cycles must elapse for
Frame-Sync, before reading data after exiting
power-down. Data from channels already running are
not affected. The user software can perform the
required delay time in any of the following ways:
zero.
When
powering-up
a
channel
in
dynamic-position TDM data format mode, the channel
data remain packed until the data are ready, at which
time the data frame is expanded to include the
just-powered channel data. See the Data Format
section for details.
1. Count the number of data conversions after
taking the PWDN pin high.
2. Delay 129/fDATA or 130/fDATA after taking the
PWDN pins high, then read data.

(1) In SPI protocol, the timing occurs on the falling edge of DRDY/FSYNC. Powering down all channels forces DRDY/FSYNC high.

(1) FSYNC clock running prior to the rising edge of PWDN. If PWDN is asynchronous to the FSYNC clock, tNDR-FS varies from 127 to 128
conversions. If PWDN is made synchronous to FSYNC, then tNDR-FS is stable.
