(b) general call reset (see section 5.4 general call ). (c) general call latch (see section 5.4 general call ). the device samples the logic status (address pins) during the above events, and latches the values until a new latch event occurs. during normal operation (after the address pins are latc hed), the address pins are internally disabled from the rest of the internal circuit. it is recommended to issue a general call reset or general call latch command once after the device has powered up. this will ensure that the device reads the address pins in a stable condition, and avoid latching the address bits while the power supply is ramping up. this might cause inaccurate address pin detection. when the address pin is left floating: when the address pin is left floating, the address pin momentarily outputs a short pulse with an amplitude of about v dd /2 during the latch event. the device also latches this pin voltage at the same time. if the floating pin is connected to a large parasitic capacitance (> 20 pf) or to a long pcb trace, this short floating voltage output can be altered. as a result, the device may not latch the pin correctly. it is strongly recommended to keep the floating pin pad as short as possible in the customer application pcb and minimize the parasitic capacitance to the pin as small as possible (< 20 pf). figure 5-2 shows an example of the latch voltage output at the address pin when the address pin is left floating. the waveform at t he adr0 pin is captured by using an oscilloscope probe with 15 pf of capacitance. the device latches the float ing condition immediately after the general call latch command. figure 5-2: general call latch command and voltage output at address pin left floating (mcp3427 and mcp3428). start bit read/write bit address byte r/w ack 1 1 0 1 a2 a1 a0 device code address bits (note 1) address byte: acknowledge bit address note 1: mcp3427 and mcp3428: configured by the user. see table 5-4 for address bit configurations. 2: mcp3426: programmed at the factory during production. float waveform (output) a t address pin scl sda downloaded from: http:///

(b) latch the logic status of external address selection pins (adr0 and adr1 pins). 5.4.2 general call latch (mcp3427 and mcp3428) the general call latch occurs if the second byte is 00000100 (04h). the device will latch the logic sta- tus of the external address selection pins (adr0 and adr1 pins), but will not perform a reset. 5.4.3 general call conversion the general call conversion occurs if the second byte is 00001000 (08h). all devices on the bus initiate a conversion simultaneously. when the device receives this command, the configuration will be set to the one-shot conversion mode and a single conversion will be performed. the pga and data rate settings are unchanged with this general call. figure 5-5: general call address format. 5.5 high-speed (hs) mode the i 2 c specification requires that a high-speed mode device must be activated to operate in high-speed mode. this is done by sending a special address byte of 00001xxx following the start bit. the xxx bits are unique to the high-speed (hs) mode master. this byte is referred to as the high-speed (hs) master mode code (hsmmc). the mcp3426/7/8 devices do not acknowledge this byte. however, upon receiving this code, the device switches on its hs mode filters and communicates up to 3.4 mhz on sda and scl bus lines. the device will switch out of the hs mode on the next stop condition. for more information on the hs mode, or other i 2 c modes, refer to the philips i 2 c specification. 5.6 i 2 c bus characteristics the i 2 c specification defines the following bus protocol: data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy during data transfer, the data line must remain stable whenever the clock line is high. changes in the data line while the clock line is high will be interpreted as a start or stop condition accordingly, the following bus conditions have been defined using figure 5-6 . 5.6.1 bus not busy (a) both data and clock lines remain high. 5.6.2 start data transfer (b) a high to low transition of the sda line while the clock (scl) is high determines a start condition. all commands must be preceded by a start condition. 5.6.3 stop data transfer (c) a low to high transition of the sda line while the clock (scl) is high determines a stop condition. all operations can be ended with a stop condition. 5.6.4 data valid (d) the state of the data line represents valid data when, after a start condition, the data line is stable for the duration of the high period of the clock signal. the data on the line must be changed during the low period of the clock signal. there is one clock pulse per bit of data. each data transfer is init iated with a start condition and terminated with a stop condition. lsb first byte ack x 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 a a xxxxxxx (general call address) second byte note: the i 2 c specification does not allow 00000000 (00h) in the second byte. s s start ack stop downloaded from: http:///

mcp3426/7/8 ds22226a-page 34 ? 2009 microchip technology inc. figure 6-7 shows an example of measuring both pressure and temperature. the pressure is measured by using npp 301 (manufactured by ge novasensor), and temperature is measured by a thermistor. the pressure sensor output is 20 mv/v. this gives 100 mv of full scale output for v dd of 5v (sensor excitation voltage). equation 6-3 shows an example of calculating the number of output code for the full scale output of the npp301. equation 6-3: expec ted number of output code for npp301 pressure sensor the thermistor temperatur e sensor can measure the temperature range from -100c to +300c. the resistance of the thermistor sensor decreases as temperature increases (negative temperature coefficient). as shown in figure 6-7 , the thermistor (r 2 ) forms a voltage divider with r 1 . the thermistor sensor is si mple to use and widely used for the temperature measurem ent applications. it has both linear and non-linear responses over temperature range. r 1 is used to adjust the linear region of interest for measurement. expected log 2 100 mv 62.5 v pga ----------------- - -------------------- - ?? ?? ?? ?? = 10.6 bits for pga = 1 = 11.6 bits for pga = 2 = 12.6 bits for pga = 4 = 13.6 bits for pga = 8 number of output code = where: 1 lsb = 62.5 v with 16 bit configuration. 1600 pga ?
