PIN DESCRIPTION
The descriptions of the pins are listed in 
TABLE 3-1:
PIN FUNCTION TABLE
3.1
RESET
This pin is active low and places the entire chip in a
Reset state when active.
When RESET = 0, all registers are reset to their default
value, no communication can take place and no clock
is distributed inside the part. This state is equivalent to
a POR state.
Since the default state of the ADCs is on, the analog
power consumption when RESET = 0 is equivalent to
when RESET = 1. Only the digital power consumption
is largely reduced because this current consumption is
essentially dynamic and is reduced drastically when
there is no clock running.
All the analog biases are enabled during a Reset so
that the part is fully operational just after a RESET
rising edge.
This input is Schmitt triggered.
3.2
Digital V
DD
 (DV
DD
)
DV
DD
 is the power supply pin for the digital circuitry
within the MCP3901. This pin requires appropriate
bypass capacitors and should be maintained between
2.7V and 5.5V for specified operation.
3.3
Analog V
DD
 (AV
DD
)
AV
DD
 is the power supply pin for the analog circuitry
within the MCP3901.
This pin requires appropriate bypass capacitors and
should be maintained to 5V ±10% for specified
operation.
