For a single measurement, trigger the desired
measurement (that is, which one of the configured measurements) when needed by:
- Setting REPEAT (Register 0x0C:bit[8])
to 0.
- Setting the corresponding MEAS_x field
(Register 0x0C:bit[7:4]) to 1.
- For example, to trigger a single
measurement of Measurement 2 at a rate of 100S/s, set Address 0x0C to 0x0540.
Note that, at a given time, only one measurement of the configured measurements can be
triggered in this manner (that is, MEAS_1 and MEAS_2 cannot both be triggered in a single
operation).
The FDC1004 can also trigger a new measurement on the completion of the previous measurement (repeated measurements). This is setup by:
- Setting REPEAT (Register 0x0C:bit[8]) to 1.
- Setting the corresponding MEAS_x field (Register 0x0C:bit[7:4]) to 1.
When the FDC1004 is setup for repeated measurements, multiple configured measurements (up to a maximum of 4) can be performed in this manner, but Register 0x0C must be written in a single transaction.
