Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these
or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.

These tests are performed at V
DD
= +5V. V
SS
= -15V. Operation over supply is guaranteed by supply-rejection tests.
Ideal full-scale transition is at +5V - 3/2 LSB = +4.9991V adjusted for offset error.
Guaranteed, not tested.
Temperature drift is defined as the change in output voltage from +25°C to T
MIN
or T
MAX
. It is calculated as
T
C
= (ΔV
REF
/V
REF
)/ΔT.
Note 5:
Control inputs specified with t
r
= t
f
= 5ns (10% to 90% of +5V) and timed from a voltage level of 1.6V. Output delays are
measured to +0.8V if going low, or +2.4V if going high. For a data-hold time, a change of 0.5V is measured. See Figures 4
and 5 for load circuits.
Note 6:
Guaranteed, not tested.

FUNCTION
Negative Power Supply, -12V or -15V. Bypass to AGND with 10µF and 0.1µF capacitors.
Positive Power Supply, +5V. Bypass to AGND with 10µF and 0.1µF capacitors.
Sampling Analog Input, ±5V Bipolar Input Range
-5V Reference Output. Bypass to AGND with 22µF || 0.1µF capacitors.
Analog Ground
Invert Serial Clock. Connect to DGND to invert the SCLK output (relative to CLKIN).
Invert Serial Frame. This input sets the polarity of the SFRM output as follows:
If
INVFRM
= DGND, SFRM is high during a conversion.
If
INVFRM
= VDD, SFRM is low during a conversion.
Digital Ground
Serial Frame Output. Normally high (INVFRM = VDD), falls at the beginning of the
conversion and rises at the end (after 16 tCLK) signaling the end of a 16-bit frame.
Frame Start Output. High pulse that lasts one clock cycle, falling edge indicates that a valid
MSB is available.
Serial Data Output. MSB first, two’s-complement binary output code.
Serial Clock Output. Same polarity as CLKIN if
INVCLK
= VDD, inverted CLKIN if
INVCLK
= DGND. Note that SCLK runs whenever CLKIN is active.
Active-Low Convert Start Input. Conversions are initiated on falling edges.
Clock Input. Supply at TTL-/CMOS-compatible clock from 0.1MHz to 5.5MHz, 40% to 60%
duty cycle.
Active-Low Chip Select Input.
CS
= DGND enables the three-state outputs. Also, if
CONVST
is low, initiates a conversion on the falling edge of
CS.
Hardwire to set operational mode. VDD (single conversions),
