Write Operation
Data can be written to either the control register or the calibra-
tion registers. In either case, the write operation is not affected
by the DRDY line and does not have any effect on the status of
DRDY. A write operation to the control register or the calibra-
tion register must always write 24 bits.
Figure 11 shows a write operation to the AD7711. A0 deter-
mines whether a write operation transfers data to the control
register or to the calibration registers. This A0 signal must
remain valid for the duration of the serial write operation. The
falling edge of TFS enables the internally generated SCLK
output. The serial data to be loaded to the AD7711 must be
valid on the rising edge of this SCLK signal. Data is clocked
into the AD7711 on the rising edge of the SCLK signal with the
MSB transferred first. On the last active high time of SCLK, the
LSB is loaded to the AD7711. Subsequent to the next falling
edge of SCLK, the SCLK output is turned off. (The timing dia-
gram in Figure 11 assumes a pull-up resistor on the SCLK line.)
External Clocking Mode
The AD7711 is configured for external clocking mode by tying
the MODE pin low. In this mode, SCLK of the AD7711 is config-
ured as an input, and an external serial clock must be provided to
this SCLK pin. This external clocking mode is designed for direct
interface to systems that provide a serial clock output that is syn-
chronized to the serial data output, including microcontrollers
such as the 80C51, 87C51, 68HC11, 68HC05, and most digital
signal processors.
Read Operation
As with self-clocking mode, data can be read from either the
output register, the control register, or the calibration registers.
A0 determines whether the data read accesses data from the
control register or from the output/calibration registers. This A0
signal must remain valid for the duration of the serial read
operation. With A0 high, data is accessed from either the output
register or from the calibration registers. With A0 low, data is
accessed from the control register.
The function of the DRDY line is dependent only on the output
update rate of the device and the reading of the output data
register. DRDY goes low when a new data-word is available in
the output data register. It is reset high when the last bit of data
(either the 16th bit or 24th bit) is read from the output register.
If data is not read from the output register, the DRDY line
remains low. The output register continues to be updated at the
output update rate, but DRDY will not indicate this. A read
from the device in this circumstance accesses the most recent
word in the output register. If a new data-word becomes avail-
able to the output register while data is being read from the
output register, DRDY will not indicate this and the new data-
word will be lost to the user. DRDY is not affected by reading
from the control register or the calibration register.
Data can be accessed from the output data register only when
DRDY is low. If RFS goes low while DRDY is high, no data
transfer will take place. DRDY does not have any effect on reading
data from the control register or from the calibration registers.

AD7711
Figures 12a and 12b show timing diagrams for reading from the
AD7711 in external clocking mode. In Figure 12a, all the data is
read from the AD7711 in one operation. In Figure 12b, the data
is read from the AD7711 over a number of read operations. Both
read operations show a read from the AD7711’s output data
register. A read from the control register or calibration registers is
similar, but, in these cases, the DRDY line is not related to the
read function. Depending on the output update rate, it can go
low at any stage in the control/calibration register read cycle
without affecting the read, and its status should be ignored. A
read operation from either the control or calibration registers
must always read 24 bits of data.
Figure 12a shows a read operation from the AD7711 where
RFS remains low for the duration of the data-word transmission.
With DRDY low, the RFS input is brought low. The input
SCLK signal should be low between read and write operations.
RFS going low places the MSB of the word to be read on the
serial data line. All subsequent data bits are clocked out on a
high to low transition of the serial clock and are valid prior to
the following rising edge of this clock. The penultimate falling
edge of SCLK clocks out the LSB and the final falling edge
resets the DRDY line high. This rising edge of DRDY turns off
the serial data output.
Figure 12b shows a timing diagram for a read operation where
RFS returns high during the transmission of the word and
returns low again to access the rest of the data-word. Timing
parameters and functions are very similar to that outlined for
Figure 12a, but Figure 12b has a number of additional times to
show timing relationships when RFS returns high in the middle
of transferring a word.
RFS should return high during a low time of SCLK. On the
rising edge of RFS, the SDATA output is turned off. DRDY
remains low and will remain low until all bits of the data-word
are read from the AD7711, regardless of the number of times
RFS changes state during the read operation. Depending on the
time between the falling edge of SCLK and the rising edge of
RFS, the next bit (BIT N+1) may appear on the data bus before
RFS goes high. When RFS returns low again, it activates the
SDATA output. When the entire word is transmitted, the
DRDY line will go high, turning off the SDATA output as shown
in Figure 12a.

Write Operation
Data can be written to either the control register or calibration
registers. In either case, the write operation is not affected by
the DRDY line and does not have any effect on the status of
DRDY. A write operation to the control register or the calibra-
tion register must always write 24 bits.
Figure 13a shows a write operation to the AD7711 with TFS
remaining low for the duration of the operation. A0 determines
whether a write operation transfers data to the control register
or to the calibration registers. This A0 signal must remain valid
for the duration of the serial write operation. As before, the serial
clock line should be low between read and write operations. The
serial data to be loaded to the AD7711 must be valid on the
high level of the externally applied SCLK signal. Data is clocked
into the AD7711 on the high level of this SCLK signal with the
MSB transferred first. On the last active high time of SCLK, the
LSB is loaded to the AD7711.
Figure 13b shows a timing diagram for a write operation to the
AD7711 with TFS returning high during the operation and
returning low again to write the rest of the data-word. Timing
parameters and functions are very similar to that outlined for
Figure 13a, but Figure 13b has a number of additional times to
show timing relationships when TFS returns high in the middle
of transferring a word.
Data to be loaded to the AD7711 must be valid prior to the
rising edge of the SCLK signal. TFS should return high during
the low time of SCLK. After TFS returns low again, the next bit
of the data-word to be loaded to the AD7711 is clocked in on
next high level of the SCLK input. On the last active high time
of the SCLK input, the LSB is loaded to the AD7711.
