version. However, coupled noise may result in degrad-
ed ADC SNR.
If averaging is turned on, multiple CNVST pulses need to
be performed before a result is written to the FIFO. Once
the proper number of conversions has been performed
to generate an averaged FIFO result (as specified to the
averaging register), the scan logic automatically switch-
es the analog-input multiplexer to the next requested
channel. If a temperature measurement is programmed,
it is performed after the first rising edge of CNVST follow-
ing the command byte written to the conversion register.
The temperature-conversion result is available on DOUT
once EOC has been pulled low. Temperature results are
available in 12-bit format.

ADC Conversions in Clock Mode 10
In clock mode 10, the wake-up, acquisition, conversion,
and shutdown sequence is initiated by writing a com-
mand byte to the conversion register, and is performed
automatically using the internal oscillator. This is the
default clock mode upon power-up. See Figure 8 for
clock mode 10 timing.
Initiate a scan by writing a command byte to the con-
version register. The MAX1020/MAX1022/MAX1057/
MAX1058 then power up, scan all requested channels,
store the results in the FIFO, and shut down. After the
scan is complete, EOC is pulled low and the results are
available in the FIFO. If a temperature measurement is
requested, the temperature result precedes all other
FIFO results. Temperature results are available in 12-bit
format. EOC stays low until CS is pulled low again. Wait
until all conversions are complete before reading the
FIFO. SPI communications to the DAC and GPIO regis-
ters are permitted during conversion. However, cou-
pled noise may result in degraded ADC SNR.
