RESET AND POWER-UP
When the ADS1113/4/5 powers up, a reset is
performed. As part of the reset process, the
ADS1113/4/5 set all of the bits in the Config register

the device had been powered on.
DUTY CYCLING FOR LOW POWER
For many applications, the improved performance at
low data rates may not be required. For these
applications, the ADS1113/4/5 support duty cycling
