PHASE DELAY LIMITS
The phase delay can only go from -OSR/2 to
+OSR/2 – 1. This sets the fine phase resolution. The
PHASE register is coded with two’s complement.
+OSR/2 – 1. This sets the fine phase resolution. The
PHASE register is coded with two’s complement.
If larger delays between the two channels are needed,
they can be implemented externally to the chip with an
MCU. A FIFO in the MCU can save incoming data from
the leading channel for a number N of DRCLK clocks.
In this case, DRCLK would represent the coarse timing
resolution, and DMCLK, the fine timing resolution. The
total delay will then be equal to:

The Phase Delay register can be programmed once
with the OSR = 256 setting and will adjust to the OSR
automatically afterwards, without the need to change
the value of the PHASE register.

Crystal Oscillator
The MCP3901 includes a Pierce-type crystal oscillator
with very high stability and ensures very low
temperature and jitter for the clock generation. This
oscillator can handle up to 16.384 MHz crystal
frequencies provided that proper load capacitances
and the quartz quality factor are used.
with very high stability and ensures very low
temperature and jitter for the clock generation. This
oscillator can handle up to 16.384 MHz crystal
frequencies provided that proper load capacitances
and the quartz quality factor are used.
For keeping specified ADC accuracy, AMCLK should
be kept between 1 and 5 MHz with BOOST off or 1 and
8.192 MHz with BOOST on. Larger MCLK frequencies
can be used provided the prescaler clock settings allow
the AMCLK to respect these ranges.

can be used provided the prescaler clock settings allow

For a proper start-up, the load capacitors of the crystal
should be connected between OSC1 and DGND, and
between OSC2 and DGND. They should also respect
the following equation:

When CLKEXT = 1, the crystal oscillator is bypassed
by a digital buffer to allow direct clock input for an
external clock (see
