AD7708/AD7718

I/O Control Register (IOCON): (A3, A2, A1, A0 = 0, 1, 1, 1; Power-On-Reset = 00Hex)

The IOCON Register is an 8-bit register from which data can be read or to which data can be written. This register is used to con-

trol and configure the I/O port. Table XIX outlines the bit designations for this register. IOCON7 through IOCON0 indicate the

bit location, IOCON denoting the bits are in the I/O Control Register. IOCON7 denotes the first bit of the data stream. The num-

ber in brackets indicates the power-on/reset default status of that bit. A write to the IOCON register has immediate effect and does

not reset the ADCs.

Description

IOCON7

0

This bit should always be cleared. Reserved for future use.

IOCON6

0

This bit should always be cleared. Reserved for future use.

IOCON5

P2DIR

P2, I/O Direction Control Bit.

Set by user to enable P2 as an output.

Cleared by user to enable P2 as an input. There are weak pull-ups internally when enabled

as an input.

IOCON4

P1DIR

P1, I/O Direction Control Bit.

Set by user to enable P1 as an output.

Cleared by user to enable P1 as an input. There are weak pull-ups internally when enabled

as an input.

IOCON3

0

This bit should always be cleared. Reserved for future use.

IOCON2

0

This bit should always be cleared. Reserved for future use.

IOCON1

P2DAT

Digital I/O Port (P1) Data Bit.

The readback value of this bit indicates the status of the pin regardless of whether this pin is

configured as an input or an output. The value written to this data bit will appear at the

output port when the I/O pin is enabled as an output.

IOCON0

P1DAT

Digital I/O port (P1) Data Bit.

The readback value of this bit indicates the status of the pin, regardless of whether this pin is

configured as an input or an output. The value written to this data bit will appear at the

output port when the I/O pin is enabled as an output.

ADC Data Result Register (DATA): (A3, A2, A1, A0 = 0, 1, 0, 0; Power-On-Reset = 000000Hex)

The conversion result for the selected ADC channel is stored in the ADC data register (DATA). This register is 16 bits wide on the

AD7708 and 24 bits wide on the AD7718. This is a read only register. On completion of a read from this register the RDY bit in

the status register is cleared. These ADCs can be operated in either unipolar or bipolar mode of operation.

Unipolar Mode

In unipolar mode of operation the output coding is straight binary. With an analog input voltage of 0 V the output code is 0000Hex

for the AD7708 and FFFFFF Hex for the AD7718. The output code for any analog input voltage can be represented as follows:

Code = (AIN

where

AIN is the analog input voltage and

N = 16 for the AD7708 and N = 24 for the AD7718.
