13-bit Sin/D CONVERTER WITH SIGNAL CALIBRATION
MAXIMUM POSSIBLE CONVERTER FREQUENCY
Rev D1, Page 13/29
The converter frequency automatically adjusts to the
value required by the input frequency and resolution.
This value ranges from zero to a maximum depen-
dent on the oscillator frequency that is set via register
FCTR.
Serial data output
For BiSS or SSI output the maximum possible con-
verter frequency can be adjusted to suit the maxi-
mum input frequency; an automatic converter resolu-
tion step-down feature can be enabled via the FCTR
register. Should the input frequency exceed the fre-
quency limit of the selected converter resolution, the
LSB is kept stable and not resolved any further; the
interpolation resolution halves.
If the next frequency limit is overshot, the LSB and LSB
+1 are kept stable and so on. If the input frequency
again sinks below this frequency threshold, fine reso-
lution automatically returns.
With the programming of CRC6 = 1 a resolution step-
down will be signalled via the BiSS warning bit.
