STARTSCAN will be deasserted t

after the last conversion in the scan is

initiated. This output is set to tri-state at startup.

Figures 4-25 and 4-26 show the input and output timing requirements for
the STARTSCAN signal.

Figure 4-26. STARTSCAN Output Signal Timing

The CONVERT* pulses are masked off until the board generates the
STARTSCAN signal. If you are using internally generated conversions, the
first CONVERT* appears when the onboard sample interval counter
reaches zero. If you select an external CONVERT*, the first external pulse
after STARTSCAN generates a conversion. The STARTSCAN pulses
should be separated by at least one scan period.
