GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7190 is a low noise, complete analog front end for high
precision measurement applications. It contains a low noise, 24bit ∑-∆ ADC. The on-chip low noise gain stage means that
signals of small amplitude can be interfaced directly to the
ADC.
The device can be configured to have two differential inputs or
four pseudo-differential inputs. The device can be operated
with either the internal clock or an external clock. The output
data rate from the part can be varied from 4.7 Hz to 4.8 kHz.
The device can be operated with a sinc3 or a sinc4 digital filter.
At the lower update rates, the sinc3 is useful to optimize the
settling time. The benefit of the sinc4 at low update rates is the
superior 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection. At the higher update rates, the
sinc4 filter gives best noise performance. For applications that
require all conversions to be settled, the AD7190 includes a
zero-latency feature.

Sample tested during initial release to ensure compliance. All input signals are specified with tR = tF = 5 ns (10% to 90% of DVDD) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6 V.
See Figure 3 and Figure 4.

These numbers are measured with the load circuit shown in Figure 2 and defined as the time required for the output to cross the VOL or VOH limits.
4
SCLK active edge is falling edge of SCLK.
5
These numbers are derived from the measured time taken by the data output to change 0.5 V when loaded with the circuit shown in Figure 2. The measured number
is then extrapolated back to remove the effects of charging or discharging the 50 pF capacitor. This means that the times quoted in the timing characteristics are the
true bus relinquish times of the part and, as such, are independent of external bus loading capacitances.
6 RDY
returns high after a read of the ADC. In single conversion mode and continuous conversion mode, the same data can be read again, if required, while RDY is high,
although care should be taken to ensure that subsequent reads do not occur close to the next output update. In continuous read mode, the digital word can be read
only once.

Description
When the master clock for the device is provided externally by a crystal, the crystal is connected between
MCLK1 and MCLK2.
Master Clock signal for the device. The AD7190 has an internal 4.92 MHz clock. This internal clock can be
made available on the MCLK2 pin.
The clock for the AD7190 can be provided externally also in the form of a crystal or external clock. A crystal
can be tied across the MCLK1 and MCLK2 pins. Alternatively, the MCLK2 pin can be driven with a CMOScompatible clock and MCLK1 left unconnected.
Serial Clock Input. This serial clock input is for data transfers to and from the ADC. The SCLK has a Schmitttriggered input, making the interface suitable for opto-isolated applications. The serial clock can be
continuous with all data transmitted in a continuous train of pulses. Alternatively, it can be a
noncontinuous clock with the information being transmitted to or from the ADC in smaller batches of data.
Chip Select Input. This is an active low logic input used to select the ADC. CS can be used to select the ADC
in systems with more than one device on the serial bus or as a frame synchronization signal in
communicating with the device. CS can be hardwired low, allowing the ADC to operate in 3-wire mode
with SCLK, DIN, and DOUT used to interface with the device.
Digital Output Pin. This pin can function as a general purpose output bit referenced between AVDD and AGND.
Digital Output Pin. This pin can function as a general purpose output bit referenced between AVDD and AGND.
Digital Output Pin/Positive Reference Input.
This pin functions as a general purpose output bit referenced between AVDD and AGND.
When REFSEL = 1, this pin functions as REFIN2(+). An external reference can be applied between REFIN2(+)
and REFIN2(−). REFIN2(+) can lie anywhere between AVDD and GND + 1 V. The nominal reference voltage,
(REFIN2(+) − REFIN2(−)), is AVDD, but the part functions with a reference from 1 V to AVDD.
Digital Output Pin/Negative Reference Input.
This pin functions as a general purpose output bit referenced between AVDD and AGND.
When REFSEL = 1, this pin functions as REFIN2(-). This reference input can lie anywhere between GND and
AVDD − 1 V.
No Connect. This pin should be tied to AGND.
Analog inputs AIN1 to AIN4 are referenced to this input when configured for pseudo-differential operation.
Analog Input. It can be configured as the positive input of a fully differential input pair when used with
AIN2 or as a pseudo-differential input when used with AINCOM.
Analog Input. It can be configured as the negative input of a fully differential input pair when used with
AIN1 or as a pseudo-differential input when used with AINCOM.

Analog Supply Voltage, 3 V to 5.25 V. AVDD is independent of DVDD. Therefore DVDD can be operated at 3 V
with AVDD at 5 V or vice versa.
Digital Supply Voltage, 2.7 V to 5.25 V. DVDD is independent of AVDD. Therefore AVDD can be operated at 3 V

Logic Input that allows for synchronization of the digital filters and analog modulators when using a
number of AD7190 devices. While SYNC is low, the nodes of the digital filter, the filter control logic and the
calibration control logic are reset and the analog modulator is also held in its reset state. SYNC does not
affect the digital interface but does reset RDY to a high state if it is low. SYNC has a pull- up resistor
internally to DVDD.
Serial Data Output/Data Ready Output. DOUT/RDYserves a dual purpose. It functions as a serial data
output pin to access the output shift register of the ADC. The output shift register can contain data from
any of the on-chip data or control registers. In addition, DOUT/RDYoperates as a data ready pin, going low
to indicate the completion of a conversion. If the data is not read after the conversion, the pin will go high
before the next update occurs.
The DOUT/RDY falling edge can be used as an interrupt to a processor, indicating that valid data is
available. With an external serial clock, the data can be read using the DOUT/RDY pin. With CS low, the
data/control word information is placed on the DOUT/RDY pin on the SCLK falling edge and is valid on the
SCLK rising edge.
Serial Data Input to the Input Shift Register on the ADC. Data in this shift register is transferred to the
control registers within the ADC, the register selection bits of the communications register identifying the
appropriate register.

AD7190
Preliminary Technical Data
RMS NOISE AND RESOLUTION SPECIFICATIONS
The AD7190 can be operated with chop enabled or chop
disabled. With chop enabled, the settling time is two times the
conversion time. The offset is continuously removed by the
ADC leading to low offset and low offset drift. With chop
disabled, higher update rates can be achieved from the ADC.
The settling time is three times (sinc3) or four times (sinc4) the
selected update rate. With chop disabled, the offset is not
removed by the ADC. The offset and offset drift is comparable
between chop enabled and chop disabled for gains of 32 or
higher. For lower gains, however, periodic offset calibrations
may be required to remove offset due to drift.
SINC4 FILTER
The sinc4 filter optimizes the 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection. At the
higher update rates, it also gives better rms noise performance
compared with the sinc3 filter.
CHOP DISABLED
Table 5 shows the rms noise of the AD7190 for some of the
update rates and gain settings with chop disabled. The
numbers given are for the bipolar input range with the
external 5 V reference. These numbers are typical and are
generated with a differential input voltage of 0 V. Table 6
shows the effective resolution while the output peak-to-peak
(p-p) resolution is listed in brackets. It is important to note
that the effective resolution is calculated using the rms noise,
while the p-p resolution is calculated based on peak-to-peak
noise. The p-p resolution represents the resolution for which
there will be no code flicker. These numbers are typical and
are rounded to the nearest half-LSB.

Table 7 shows the AD7190’s rms noise for some of the update
rates and gain settings. The numbers given are for the bipolar
input range with an external 5 V reference. These numbers are
typical and are generated with a differential input voltage of 0 V.
Table 8 shows the effective resolution, while the output peak-topeak (p-p) resolution is listed in brackets. It is important to note
that the effective resolution is calculated using the rms noise,
while the p-p resolution is calculated based on peak-to-peak
noise. The p-p resolution represents the resolution for which
there will be no code flicker. These numbers are typical and are
rounded to the nearest half-LSB.

numbers given are for the bipolar input range with the
external 5 V reference. These numbers are typical and are
generated with a differential input voltage of 0 V. Table 10
shows the effective resolution while the output peak-to-peak
(p-p) resolution is listed in brackets. It is important to note
that the effective resolution is calculated using the rms noise,
while the p-p resolution is calculated based on peak-to-peak

are rounded to the nearest half-LSB.
SINC3 FILTER
For a given update rate, the sinc3 filter has lower settling time
than the sinc3 filter. At low update rates, the rms noise is
comparable between the sinc3 filter and the sinc4 filter. So, the
user can optimize the settling time without compromising the
rms noise. At high update rates, the sinc4 filter is needed for
optimum performance of the AD7190.
CHOP DISABLED

ON-CHIP REGISTERS
The ADC is controlled and configured via a number of on-chip
registers, which are described on the following pages. In the
following descriptions, set implies a Logic 1 state and cleared
implies a Logic 0 state, unless otherwise noted.
COMMUNICATIONS REGISTER
(RS2, RS1, RS0 = 0, 0, 0)
The communications register is an 8-bit write-only register. All
communications to the part must start with a write operation to
the communications register. The data written to the communications register determines whether the next operation is a read
or write operation, and to which register this operation takes
place. For read or write operations, once the subsequent read or

CR4
RS1(0)
write operation to the selected register is complete, the interface
returns to where it expects a write operation to the communications register. This is the default state of the interface and, on
power-up or after a reset, the ADC is in this default state
waiting for a write operation to the communications register. In
situations where the interface sequence is lost, a write operation
of at least 40 serial clock cycles with DIN high returns the ADC
to this default state by resetting the entire part. Table 13 outlines
the bit designations for the communications register. CR0
through CR7 indicate the bit location, CR denoting the bits are
in the communications register. CR7 denotes the first bit of the
data stream. The number in brackets indicates the poweron/reset default status of that bit.

Description
Write Enable Bit. A 0 must be written to this bit so that the write to the communications register actually
occurs. If a 1 is the first bit written, the part will not clock on to subsequent bits in the register. It will stay at
this bit location until a 0 is written to this bit. Once a 0 is written to the WEN bit, the next seven bits will be
loaded to the communications register.
A 0 in this bit location indicates that the next operation will be a write to a specified register. A 1 in this
position indicates that the next operation will be a read from the designated register.
Register Address Bits. These address bits are used to select which registers of the ADC are being selected
during this serial interface communication. See Table 14.
Continuous Read of the Data Register. When this bit is set to 1 (and the data register is selected), the serial
interface is configured so that the data register can be continuously read, that is, the contents of the data
register are automatically placed on the DOUT pin when the SCLK pulses are applied after the RDY pin
goes low to indicate that a conversion is complete. The communications register does not have to be
written to for subsequent data reads. To enable continuous read, the instruction 01011100 must be written
to the communications register. To disable continuous read, the instruction 01011000 must be written to
the communications register while the RDY pin is low. While continuous read is enabled, the ADC monitors
activity on the DIN line so that it can receive the instruction to disable continuous read. Additionally, a
reset will occur if 40 consecutive 1s are seen on DIN. Therefore, DIN should be held low until an instruction
is to be written to the device.
These bits must be programmed to Logic 0 for correct operation.

STATUS REGISTER
(RS2, RS1, RS0 = 0, 0, 0; Power-On/Reset = 0x80)
The status register is an 8-bit read-only register. To access the ADC status register, the user must write to the communications register,
select the next operation to be a read, and load Bit RS2, Bit RS1, and Bit RS0 with 0. Table 15 outlines the bit designations for the status
register. SR0 through SR7 indicate the bit locations, SR denoting the bits are in the status register. SR7 denotes the first bit of the data
stream. The number in brackets indicates the power-on/reset default status of that bit.

Description
Ready Bit for ADC. Cleared when data is written to the ADC data register. The RDY bit is set automatically
after the ADC data register has been read or a period of time before the data register is updated with a
new conversion result to indicate to the user not to read the conversion data. It is also set when the part is
placed in power-down mode, idle mode or when SYNC is taken low.
The end of a conversion is also indicated by the DOUT/RDY pin. This pin can be used as an alternative to
the status register for monitoring the ADC for conversion data.
ADC Error Bit. This bit is written to at the same time as the RDY bit. Set to indicate that the result written to
the ADC data register has been clamped to all 0s or all 1s. Error sources include overrange, underrange, or
the absence of a reference voltage. Cleared by a write operation to start a conversion.
No External Reference Bit. Set to indicate that the selected reference (REFIN1 or REFIN2) is at a voltage that
is below a specified threshold. When set, conversion results are clamped to all ones. Cleared to indicate
that a valid reference is applied to the selected reference pins. The NOXREF bit is enabled by setting the
REF_DET bit in the configuration register to 1. The ERR bit is also set if the voltage applied to the selected
reference input is invalid.
Parity Check of Data Register.
If the ENPAR bit is set, the PARITY bit is set if there is an odd number of 1s in the data register. It is cleared if
there is an even number of 1s in the data register. The DAT_STA bit should be set when the parity check is
used. When the DAT_STA bit is set, the contents of the status register are transmitted along with the data
for each data register read.
These bits indicate which channel corresponds to the data register contents. They do not indicate which
channel is presently being converted but indicate which channel was selected when the conversion
contained in the data register was being generated.
MODE REGISTER
(RS2, RS1, RS0 = 0, 0, 1; Power-On/Reset = 0x080060)
The mode register is a 24-bit register from which data can be read or to which data can be written. This register is used to select the
operating mode, the update rate, and the clock source. Table 16 outlines the bit designations for the mode register. MR0 through MR23
indicate the bit locations, MR denoting the bits are in the mode register. MR23 denotes the first bit of the data stream. The number in
brackets indicates the power-on/reset default status of that bit. Any write to the mode register resets the modulator and filter and sets the
RDY bit.

read. This function is useful when several channels are selected as the status register identifies the
channel to which the data register value corresponds.
These bits are used to select the clock source for the AD7190. Either the on-chip 4.92 MHz clock can
be used or an external clock can be used. The ability to use an external clock allows several AD7190
devices to be synchronized. Also, 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection is improved when an accurate external clock
drives the AD7190.

These bits must be programmed with a Logic 0 for correct operation.
Sinc3 Filter Select pin.
When this bit is cleared, the sinc4 filter is used (default value).
When this bit is set, a sinc3 filter is used.
The benefit of the sinc3 filter compared to the sinc4 filter is its lower settling time when chop is
disabled. For a given update rate fADC, the sinc3 filter has a settling time of fADC/3 while the sinc4 filter
has a settling time of fADC/4. The sinc4 filter, due to its deeper notches, gives better 50 Hz/60 Hz
rejection.
At low update rates, both filters give similar rms noise and similar no missing codes for a given update
rate. At higher update rates (FS values less than 5), the sinc4 filter gives better performance than the
sinc3 filter for rms noise and no missing codes.
This bit must be programmed with a Logic 0 for correct operation.
Enable Parity bit.
When ENPAR is set, parity checking on the data register is enabled. The DAT_STA bit should be set
when the parity check is used. When the DAT_STA bit is set, the contents of the status register are
transmitted along with the data for each data register read.
This bit must be programmed with a Logic 0 for correct operation.
Single Cycle Conversion Enable Bit.
When this bit is set, the AD7190 allows the complete settling time to perform each conversion. So, the
device functions as a zero-latency ADC.
Enables a notch at 60 Hz when the update rate is equal to 50 Hz.
When REJ60 is set, a filter notch is placed at 60 Hz when the update rate selected is 50 Hz. This allows
simultaneous 50 Hz/60 Hz rejection.
Filter Update Rate Select Bits.
The 10 bits of data programmed into these bits determine the filter cut-off frequency, the position of
the first notch of the filter and the data rate for the part. In association with the gain selection, it also
determines the output noise (and hence the effective resolution) of the device. When chop is disabled
and continuous conversion mode is selected, the first notch of the filter occurs at a frequency
determined by the relationship:
filter first notch frequency = (fmod/64)/FS
where FS is the decimal equivalent of the code in bits FS0 to FS9 and is in the range 1 to 1023 and
fmod is the modulator frequency which is equal to MCLK/16. With the nominal MCLK of 4.92 MHz, this
results in a first notch frequency range from 4.69 Hz to 4.8 kHz.
Changing the filter notch frequency, as well as the selected gain, impacts resolution. Tables 5 through
8 show the effect of the filter notch frequency and gain on the effective resolution of the AD7190. The
output data rate (or effective conversion time) for the device is equal to the frequency selected for the
first notch of the filter. For example, if the first notch of the filter is selected at 50 Hz then a new word
is available at a 50 Hz rate or every 20 ms. If the first notch is at 1.2 kHz, a new word is available every
0.83 ms. The settling time of the filter to a full-scale step input change is worst case (N + 1)/(output
data rate) where N = 3 when the sinc3 filter is selected and N = 4 when the sinc4 filter is selected. For
example, with the first filter notch at 50 Hz, the settling time of the filter to a full-scale step input
change is 100 ms max when N = 4. This settling time can be reduced to N/(output data rate) by
synchronizing the step input change to a reset of the digital filter. In other words, if the step input
takes place with the SYNC input low, the settling time will be N/(output data rate) from when SYNC
returns high. If a change of channel takes place, the settling time is N/(output data rate) regardless of
the SYNC status as the part issues an internal reset command when requested to change channels.

relationship:
filter –3 dB frequency = 0.23 x filter first notch frequency.
When chop is enabled, the conversion time equals
Conversion rate = (fmod/64)/(NxFS)
where FS is the decimal equivalent of the code in bits FS0 to FS9 and is in the range 1 to 1023 and
fmod is the modulator frequency which is equal to MCLK/16. With the nominal MCLK of 4.92 MHz, this
results in a conversion rate from 4.69/N Hz to 4.8/N kHz where N is the order of the sinc filter. The first
notch in the frequency response is placed at conversion rate/2. The settling time is equal to 2 x
conversion time.

Mode
Continuous Conversion Mode (Default).
In continuous conversion mode, the ADC continuously performs conversions and places the result in the data
register. RDY goes low when a conversion is complete. The user can read these conversions by setting the CREAD
bit in the communications register to ‘1’ which enables continuous read. When continuous read is enabled, the
conversions are automatically placed on the DOUT line when SCLK pulses are applied. Alternatively, the user can
instruct the ADC to output each conversion by writing to the communications register.
After power-on, a reset or a re-configuration of the ADC, the complete settling time of the filter is required to
generate the first valid conversion. Subsequent conversions are available at the selected update rate which is
dependent on filter choice.
Single Conversion Mode.
When single conversion mode is selected, the ADC powers up and performs a single conversion on the selected
channel. The oscillator requires 1 ms to power up and settle. The ADC then performs the conversion which requires
the complete settling time of the filter. The conversion result is placed in the data register, RDY goes low, and the
ADC returns to power-down mode. The conversion remains in the data register and RDY remains active (low) until
the data is read or another conversion is performed.
Idle Mode.
In idle mode, the ADC filter and modulator are held in a reset state although the modulator clocks are still provided.
Power-Down Mode.
In power-down mode, all the AD7190 circuitry, except the power switch, is powered down. The power switch
remains active as the user may need to power up the sensor prior to powering up the AD7190 for settling reasons.
The external crystal, if present, is left active.
Internal Zero-Scale Calibration.
An internal short is automatically connected to the input. RDY goes high when the calibration is initiated and
returns low when the calibration is complete. The ADC is placed in idle mode following a calibration. The measured
offset coefficient is placed in the offset register of the selected channel.
Internal Full-Scale Calibration.
A full-scale input voltage is automatically connected to the input for this calibration.
RDY goes high when the calibration is initiated and returns low when the calibration is complete. The ADC is placed
in idle mode following a calibration. The measured full-scale coefficient is placed in the full-scale register of the
selected channel.
A full-scale calibration is required each time the gain of a channel is changed to minimize the full-scale error.
System Zero-Scale Calibration.
User should connect the system zero-scale input to the channel input pins as selected by the CH7 to CH0 bits. RDY
goes high when the calibration is initiated and returns low when the calibration is complete. The ADC is placed in
idle mode following a calibration. The measured offset coefficient is placed in the offset register of the selected
channel.
System Full-Scale Calibration.
User should connect the system full-scale input to the channel input pins as selected by the CH7–CH0 bits.
RDY goes high when the calibration is initiated and returns low when the calibration is complete. The ADC is placed
in idle mode following a calibration. The measured full-scale coefficient is placed in the full-scale register of the
selected channel.
A full-scale calibration is required each time the gain of a channel is changed.

CONFIGURATION REGISTER
(RS2, RS1, RS0 = 0, 1, 0; Power-On/Reset = 0x000117)
The configuration register is a 24-bit register from which data can be read or to which data can be written. This register is used to
configure the ADC for unipolar or bipolar mode, enable or disable the buffer, enable or disable the burnout currents, select the gain,
and select the analog input channel.
Table 18 outlines the bit designations for the filter register. CON0 through CON23 indicate the bit locations. CON denotes that the bits
are in the configuration register. CON23 denotes the first bit of the data stream. The number in brackets indicates the power-on/reset

Description
Chop Enable Bit.
When CHOP is cleared, chop is disabled.
When CHOP is set, chop is disabled.
When chop is enabled, the offset and offset drift is continuously removed by the ADC. However, it
increases the conversion time and settling time of the ADC. For example, when FS = 96 decimal and the
sinc4 filter is selected, the conversion time with chop enabled equals 80 ms and the settling time equals
160 ms. With chop disabled, higher conversion rates are allowed. For an SF word of 96 decimal and the
sinc4 filter selected, the conversion time is 20 ms and the settling time is 80 ms. However, at low gains,
periodic calibrations may be required to remove the offset and offset drift.
These bits must be programmed with a Logic 0 for correct operation.
Reference Select Bits. The reference source for the ADC is selected using these bits.

Channel Select Bits.
These bits are used to select which channels are enabled on the AD7190. See Table 19. Several channels
can be selected and the AD7190 will automatically sequence between them. The conversion on each
channel will require the complete settling time.
When this bit is set to 1 by the user, the 500 nA current sources in the signal path are enabled. When
BURN = 0, the burnout currents are disabled. The burnout currents can be enabled only when the buffer
is active.
Enables the Reference Detect Function.
When set, the NOXREF bit in the status register indicates when the external reference being used by the
ADC is open circuit or less than 0.5 V.
This bit must be programmed with a Logic 0 for correct operation.
Configures the ADC for buffered or unbuffered mode of operation. If cleared, the ADC operates in
unbuffered mode, lowering the power consumption of the device. If set, the ADC operates in buffered
mode, allowing the user to place source impedances on the front end without contributing gain errors
to the system.
With the buffer disabled, the voltage on the analog input pins can be from 50 mV below GND to 50 mV
above AVDD. When the buffer is enabled, it requires some headroom so the voltage on any input pin must
be limited to 200 mV within the power supply rails.

DATA REGISTER
(RS2, RS1, RS0 = 0, 1, 1; Power-On/Reset = 0x000000)
The conversion result from the ADC is stored in this data register. This is a read-only register. On completion of a read operation from
this register, the RDY bit/pin is set. The AD7190 can be configured for 24-bit transfers or 32-bit transfers. When 24-bit transfers are
selected, the 24-bit data conversion is transmitted. When 32-bit transfers are selected, the 24-bit conversion is followed by the contents of
the status register. When several channels are enabled, the ADC will automatically step between channels. So, 32-bit transmissions are
required so that the user can identify the channel from which the conversions originated.
GPOCON REGISTER
(RS2, RS1, RS0 = 1, 0, 1; Power-On/Reset = 0x00)
The GPOCON register is an 8-bit register from which data can be read or to which data can be written. This register is used to enable the
general purpose digital outputs.
Table 20 outlines the bit designations for the GPOCON register. GP0 through GP7 indicate the bit locations. GP denotes that the bits are
in the GPOCON register. GP7 denotes the first bit of the data stream. The number in brackets indicates the power-on/reset default status
of that bit.

Description
This bit must be programmed with a Logic 0 for correct operation.
Power Switch Control Bit. Set by user to close the power switch BPDSW to AGND. The power switch
can sink up to 30 mA. Cleared by user to open the power switch. When the ADC is placed in powerdown mode, the power switch remains active.
Digital Outputs P3 and P2 Enable.
When GP32EN is set, the digital outputs P3 and P2 are active. When GP32EN is cleared, the pins P3
and P2 are tri-stated and bits P3DAT and P2DAT are ignored.
Digital Outputs P1 and P0 Enable.
When GP10EN is set, the digital outputs P1 and P0 are active. When GP10EN is cleared, the P1 and
P0 outputs are tri-stated and bits P1DAT and P0DAT are ignored. The pins P1 and P0 can be used as a
reference input REFIN2 when bit REFSEL in the configuration register is set to 1.
Digital Output P3. When GP32EN is set, the P3DAT bit sets the value of the general purpose output
pin P3. When P3DAT is high, the output P3 is high. When P3DAT is low, the output P3 is low.
Digital Output P2. When GP32EN is set, the P2DAT bit sets the value of the general purpose output
pin P2. When P2DAT is high, the output P2 is high. When P2DAT is low, the output P2 is low.
Digital Output P1. When GP10EN is set, the P1DAT bit sets the value of the general purpose output
pin P1. When P1DAT is high, the output P1 is high. When P1DAT is low, the output P1 is low.
Digital Output P0. When GP10EN is set, the P0DAT bit sets the value of the general purpose output
pin P0. When P0DAT is high, the output P0 is high. When P0DAT is low, the output P0 is low.
OFFSET REGISTER
FULL-SCALE REGISTER
(RS2, RS1, RS0 = 1, 1, 0; Power-On/Reset = 0x800000)
(RS2, RS1, RS0 = 1, 1, 1; Power-On/Reset = 0x5XXXX0)
The offset register holds the offset calibration coefficient for the
ADC. The power-on reset value of the offset register is
0x800000. The AD7190 has four offset registers so each channel
has a dedicated offset register. Each of these registers is a 24-bit
read/write register. This register is used in conjunction with its
associated full-scale register to form a register pair. The poweron reset value is automatically overwritten if an internal or
system zero-scale calibration is initiated by the user. The
AD7190 must be placed in power-down mode or idle mode
when writing to the offset register.
The full-scale register is a 24-bit register that holds the full-scale
calibration coefficient for the ADC. The AD7190 has 4 fullscale registers so each channel has a dedicated full-scale register.
The full-scale registers are read/write registers. However, when
writing to the full-scale registers, the ADC must be placed in
power-down mode or idle mode. These registers are configured
on power-on with factory-calibrated full-scale calibration
coefficients, the calibration being performed at gain = 1.
Therefore, every device will have different default coefficients.
The default value will be automatically overwritten if an
internal or system full-scale calibration is initiated by the user
or the full-scale register is written to.
