User-Programmable Outputs
The MAX1142/MAX1143 have three user-programma-
ble outputs: P0, P1 and P2. The power-on default state
for the programmable outputs is zero. These are push-
pull CMOS outputs suitable for driving a multiplexer, a
PGA, or other signal preconditioning circuitry. The user-
programmable outputs are controlled by bits 0, 1 and 2
of the Control-Byte (Table 2).
The user-programmable outputs are set to zero during
power-on reset (POR) or when RST goes low. During
hardware or software shutdown P0, P1, and P2 are
unchanged and remain low-impedance.
Starting a Conversion
Start a conversion by clocking a Control-Byte into the
device’s internal shift register. With CS low, each rising
edge on SCLK clocks a bit from DIN into the
MAX1142/MAX1143’s internal shift register. After CS
goes low or after a conversion or calibration completes,
the first arriving logic “1” is defined as the start bit of
the Control-Byte. Until this first start bit arrives, any
number of logic “0” bits can be clocked into DIN with
no effect. If at any time during acquisition or conversion,
CS is brought high and then low again, the part is
placed into a state where it can recognize a new start
bit. If a new start bit occurs before the current conver-
sion is complete, the conversion is aborted and a new
acquisition is initiated. Table 1 shows the Control-Byte
format.
Internal and External Clock Modes
The MAX1142/MAX1143 may use either the external
serial clock or the internal clock to perform the succes-
sive-approximation conversion. In both clock modes,
the external clock shifts data in and out of the
MAX1142/MAX1143. Bit 5 (INT/EXT) of the Control-Byte
programs the clock mode.
External Clock
In external clock mode, the external clock not only
shifts data in and out, but it also drives the A/D conver-
sion steps. In short acquisition mode, SSTRB pulses
high for one clock period after the seventh falling edge
of SCLK, following the start bit. The MSB of the conver-
sion is available at DOUT on the eighth falling edge of
SCLK (Figure 2).
In long acquisition mode, when using the external
clock, SSTRB pulses high for one clock period after the
fifteenth falling edge of SCLK, following the start bit.
The MSB of the conversion is available at DOUT on the
sixteenth falling edge of SCLK (Figure 3).

These three bits are stored in a port register and output to pins P2–P0 for use in addressing a
MUX or PGA. These three bits are updated in the port register simultaneously when a new
Control-Byte is written.
