MSB-First/LSB-First (MSBF)
The output data of the LTC1293/4/6 is programmed for
MSB-first or LSB-first sequence using the MSB bit. When
the MSBF bit is a logical one, data will appear on the D
OUT
line in MSB-first format. Logical zeroes will be filled in
indefinitely following the last data bit to accommodate
longer word lengths required by some microprocessors.
When the MSBF bit is a logical zero, LSB first data will
follow the normal MSB first data on the D
OUT
line. In the
bipolar mode the sign bit will fill in after the MSB bit for
MSBF = 0 (see Operating Sequence).
Power Shutdowns (PS)
The power shutdown feature of the LTC1293/4/6 is acti-
vated by making the PS bit a logical zero. If CS remains low
after the PS bit has been received, a 12-bit D

Power Shutdown Operating Sequence

all logical ones will be shifted out followed by logical
zeroes till CS goes high. Then the D
OUT
line will go into its
high impedance state. The LTC 1293/4/6 will remain in the
shutdown mode till the next CS cycle. There is no warm-
up or wait period required after coming out of the power
shutdown cycle so a conversion can commence after CS
goes low (see Power Shutdown Operating Sequence). The
LTC1296 has a System Shutdown Output pin (SSO) which
will go low when power shutdown is activated. The pin will
stay low till next CS cycle.
Microprocessor Interfaces
The LTC1293/4/6 can interface directly (without external
hardware) to most popular microprocessors (MPU) syn-
chronous serial formats (see Table 1). If an MPU without
a dedicated serial port is used, then three of the MPU’s
parallel port lines can be programmed to form the serial
link to the LTC1293/4/6. Included here are one serial
interface example and one example showing a parallel
port programmed to form the serial interface.

Interfacing to the Parallel Port of the Intel 8051 Family
The Intel 8051 has been chosen to show the interface
between the LTC1293/4/6 and parallel port microproces-
sors. Usually the signals CS, D
IN
and CLK are generated
on three port lines and the D
OUT
signal is read on a fourth
port line. This works very well. One can save a line by tying
the D
IN
and D
OUT
lines together. The 8051 first sends the
start bit and D
IN
to the LTC1294 over the line connected to
P1.2. Then P1.2 is reconfigured as an input and the 8051
reads back the 12-bit A/D result over the same data line.

Data Exchange Between LTC1294 and MC68HC11
Motorola SPI (MC68HC11)
The MC68HC11 has been chosen as an example of an MPU
with a dedicated serial port. This MPU transfers data MSB-
first and in 8-bit increments. The D
IN
word sent to the data
register starts the SPI process. With three 8-bit transfers,
the A/D result is read into the MPU. The second 8-bit
transfer clocks B11 through B8 of the A/D conversion
result into the processor. The third 8-bit transfer clocks
the remaining bits B7 through B0 into the MPU. The data
is right justified in the two memory locations. ANDing the
second byte with 0D
HEX
clears the four most significant
bits. This operation was not included in the code. It can
be inserted in the data gathering loop or outside the loop
when the data is processed.
