Communication with the device is done using a stan-
dard SPI-compatible serial interface. Initiating commu-
nication with the MCP3201 begins with the CS going
low. If the device was powered up with the CS pin low,
it must be brought high and back low to initiate commu-
nication. The device will begin to sample the analog
input on the first rising edge after CS goes low. The
sample period will end in the falling edge of the second
clock, at which time the device will output a low null bit.
The next 12 clocks will output the result of the conver-

sion with MSB first, as shown in Figure 5-1. Data is
always output from the device on the falling edge of the
clock. If all 12 data bits have been transmitted and the
device continues to receive clocks while the CS is held
low, the device will output the conversion result LSB
first, as shown in Figure 5-2. If more clocks are pro-
vided to the device while CS is still low (after the LSB
first data has been transmitted), the device will clock
out zeros indefinitely.
