SNAD01C

8-CHANNEL 8-BIT ADC

(1) The power down command (000/111) is sent to SNAD01C in the first three cycles, and then

(less than 1uA).

(2) After SNAD01C enters power down (mode 0: command 000), SNAD01C sends “0” out to

DIO until a valid logic transition appears on any wakeup-enabled digital input channel. Once

the transition occurs, SNAD01C toggles DIO to “1” to inform host controller. After receiving

“1” from DIO, host controller should turn START back to “1” to inform SNAD01C that the

power-down stage is over. Otherwise, SNAD01C keeps sending out “1” to DIO and does not

recognize any other transitions on any channels.

(3) After SNAD01C enters power down (mode 1: command 111), SNAD01C sends “1” out to

DIO until a valid logic transition appears on any wakeup-enabled digital input channel. Once

the transition occurs, SNAD01C toggles DIO to “0” to inform host controller. After receiving

“0” from DIO, host controller should turn START back to “1” to inform SNAD01C that the

power-down stage is over. Otherwise, SNAD01C keeps sending out “1” to DIO and does not

recognize any other transitions any the channels.

(4) The CLK may stop but START ought to remain at LOW level in the whole power down mode.

(5) The SNAD01C provides two power-down mode “POWER_DOWN 0” and

“POWER_DOWN 1”, user has to select a property power-down mode that it depend

on what kind I/O type for host MCU (pull-up or pull-low) before ADC enter

power-down mode. Otherwise, it will generate a DC-path and the standby current

also will go up.

(6) Before into power down mode, the “RF” and “MB” register must set up “0”, otherwise

the standby current will more than 1uA.

Note:

Wakeup function is only dedicated to the channel which is digital input type AND wakeup-enabled.
