10.1.3 SPI Connections

The SPI interface comprises several digital lines and the SPI supply. Communication errors can occur if interface lines are not routed properly. Prevent interference on the SPI lines by placing noisy and interfering sources away from the interface.

Prevent noise by routing the SPI ground line with the digital lines to the respective pins as much as possible. Connect the SPI interface with a separate ground connection to the DGND pin of the DLPA4000 device. This design style prevents ground noise between SPI ground references of DLPA4000 and DLPC due to the high current in the system.

Separate interfering sources from the interface lines. For example, high-current lines such as those near the PWR_7 pin and the SPI_CLK pin are too close, false clock pulses and communication errors can occur.
