The Table 1 shows the various bit combinations for channel LTC1391 uses DIN to select the active channel and the chip selection. select input, CS, to switch on the selected channel as shown in Figure 2. Table 1. Logic Table for Channel Selection When CS is high, the input data on the D ACTIVE CHANNELENB2B1BO IN pin is latched into the 4-bit shift register on the rising clock edge. The All Off 0 X X X input data consists of the “EN” bit and a string of three bits S0 1 0 0 0 for channel selection. If “EN” bit is logic high as illustrated S1 1 0 0 1 in the first input data sequence, it enables the selected S2 1 0 1 0 channel. After the clocking in of the last channel selection S3 1 0 1 1 bit B0, the CS pin must be pulled low before the next rising S4 1 1 0 0 clock edge to ensure correct operation. Once CS is pulled S5 1 1 0 1 low, the previously selected channel is switched off to S6 1 1 1 0 ensure a break-before-make interval.
