Legacy, SPI-Compatible (SYS-xy-S) Protocols

As shown in Table 5, the host controller can use any of the four legacy, SPI-compatible protocols (SPI-00-S, SPI-01-S, SPI-10-S, or SPI-11-S) to read data from the device.

At power-up or after coming out of any asynchronous reset, the device supports the SPI-00-S protocol for data-read and data-write operations. To select a different SPI-compatible protocol for both the data transfer operations:

  1. Program the SDI_MODE[1:0] bits in the SDI_CNTL register. This first write operation must adhere to the SPI-00-S protocol. Any subsequent data transfer frames must adhere to the newly selected protocol.
  2. Set the SDO_MODE[1:0] bits = 00b in the SDO_CNTL register.

Figure 54 to Figure 57 explain the details of the four protocols using an optimal command frame to read all 22 bits of the output data word. Table 5 shows the number of SCLK required in an optimal read frame for the different output protocol selections.

For SDI_MODE[1:0] = 00b or 10b, the device supports an Early Data Launch (EDL) option. Set SDO_MODE[1:0] = 01b in the SDO_CNTL register to enable the feature (see Table 6). Setting SDO_MODE[1:0] = 01b has no effect if SDI_MODE[1:0] = 01b or 11b.

As shown in Figure 58, and Figure 59, the device launches the output data bit on the SDO-0 pin half clock earlier compared to the standard SPI protocol.

When using these SPI-compatible protocols, the RVS output remains low throughout the data transfer frame; see the Timing Requirements and Switching Characteristics tables for associated timing parameters.

With SDO_CNTL[7:0] = 00h or 01h, if the host controller uses a long data transfer frame, the device exhibits daisy-chain operation (see the Multiple Devices: Daisy-Chain Topology section).

NOTE

Use SPI-compatible protocols to execute the RD_REG, WR_REG, CLR_BITS, and SET_BITS commands specified in Table 2.
