DATA FORMAT (FORMAT)
The serial output data is provided in an offset binary code
as shown in Table 9. The digital input pin FORMAT selects
how many bits are used in the output word. When
FORMAT is high (1), 20 bits are used. When FORMAT is
low (0), the lower 4 bits are truncated so that only 16 bits
are used. Note that the LSB size is 16 times bigger when
FORMAT = 0. An offset is included in the output to allow
slightly negative inputs, from board leakages for example,
from clipping the reading. This offset is approximately
0.4% of the positive full-scale.

DATA RETRIEVAL
In both the continuous and non-continuous modes of
operation, the data from the last conversion is available for
retrieval on the falling edge of DVALID (see Figure 20 and
Table 10). Data is shifted out on the falling edge of the data
clock, DCLK. Make sure not to retrieve data while CONV
changes as this can introduce noise. Stop activity on
DCLK at least 10µs before or after a CONV transition.
Setting the FORMAT pin = 0 (16-bit output word) reduces
the time needed to retrieve data by 20%, since there are
fewer bits to shift out. This time reduction can be useful in
multichannel systems requiring only 16 bits of resolution.
