Choosing SCLK rate and Sample Period
For a cascade of a given length, the SCLK rate and Sample Period will determine if the cascade can be used successfully. A low sample rate will allow more time for the ADC data to be read. Similarly a high SCLK rate will transmit the data in a shorter time. Since both the SCLK rate and Sample Rate are derived from the same DMCLK the number of combinations is limited. As most applications will require a predetermined sample rate, the SCLK speed will be the limitating factor in the cascade length that can be used. Table I shows the maximum cascade length for a given SCLK and Sample Rate. The table assumes that a MCLK of 16.384MHz is used.
