8.3.9 Mode Selection (MODE)

The ADS1278-SP supports four modes of operation: High-Speed, High-Resolution, Low-Power, and Low-Speed. The modes offer optimization of speed, resolution, and power. Mode selection is determined by the status of the digital input MODE[1:0] pins, as shown in Table 6. The ADS1278-SP continually monitors the status of the MODE pin during operation.

Table 6. Mode Selection

MODE[1:0] MODE SELECTION MAX fDATA(1)
00 High-Speed 128,000
01 High-Resolution 52,734
10 Low-Power 52,734
11 Low-Speed 10,547
(1) fCLK = 27-MHz max (32.768-MHz max in High-Speed mode).

When using the SPI protocol, DRDY is held high after a mode change occurs until settled (or valid) data are ready; see Figure 68 and Table 7.

In Frame-Sync protocol, the DOUT pins are held low after a mode change occurs until settled data are ready; see Figure 68 and Table 7. Data can be read from the device to detect when DOUT changes to logic 1, indicating that the data are valid.
