The ADNS-3040 is an ultra low-power optical navigation
sensor. It has a new, low-power architecture and automatic power management modes, making it ideal for
battery-and power-sensitive applications such as cordless
input devices.
x Low power architecture
The ADNS-3040 is capable of high-speed motion detection – up to 20 ips and 8g. In addition, it has an on-chip
oscillator and LED driver to minimize external components.
The ADNS-3040 along with the ADNS-3120-001 lens,
ADNS-2220 clip and HLMP-ED80-PS000 LED form a
complete and compact mouse tracking system. There
are no moving parts, which means high reliability and
less maintenance for the end user. In addition, precision
optical alignment is not required, facilitating high volume
assembly.
The sensor is programmed via registers through a fourwire serial port. It is packaged in a 20-pin DIP.

x Internal oscillator – no clock input needed
x Selectable 400 and 800 cpi resolution
x Wide operating voltage: 2.6V-3.6V nominal
x Four wire serial port
x Minimal number of passive components
Applications
x Optical Mice
x Optical trackballs
x Integrated input devices
x Battery-powered input devices
Theory of Operation
The ADNS-3040 is based on Optical Navigation Technology, which measures changes in position by optically
acquiring sequential surface images (frames) and mathematically determining the direction and magnitude of
movement.
The ADNS-3040 contains an Image Acquisition System
(IAS), a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), and a four wire
serial port.
and illumination system. These images are processed by
the DSP to determine the direction and distance of motion. The DSP calculates the 'x and 'y relative displacement values.
An external microcontroller reads the 'x and 'y information from the sensor serial port. The microcontroller then
translates the data into PS2, USB, or RF signals before
sending them to the host PC or game console.
The IAS acquires microscopic surface images via the lens

Overview of Optical Mouse Sensor Assembly
Avago Technologies provides an IGES file drawing describing the base plate molding features for lens and
PCB alignment.
The components interlock as they are mounted onto
defined features on the base plate.
The ADNS-3040 sensor is designed for mounting on a
through-hole PCB, looking down. There is an aperture
stop and features on the package that align to the lens.
The ADNS-3120-001 lens provides optics for the imaging
of the surface as well as illumination of the surface at the
optimum angle. Features on the lens align it to the sensor, base plate, and clip with the LED.
The ADNS-2220 clip holds the LED in relation to the lens.
The LED must be inserted into the clip and the LED’s
leads formed prior to loading on the PCB. The clip interlocks the sensor to the lens, and through the lens to the
alignment features on the base plate.
The HLMP-ED80-PS000 LED is recommended for illumination.

PCB Assembly Considerations
1. Insert the sensor and all other electrical components
into PCB.
contaminants from entering the aperture. Recommend not to place the PCB facing up during the entire
mouse assembly process. Recommend to hold the
PCB first vertically for the kapton removal process.
2. Insert the LED into the assembly clip and bend the
leads 90 degrees.
3. Insert the LED/clip assembly into PCB.
4. Wave Solder the entire assembly in a no-wash solder
process utilizing solder fixture. The solder fixture is
needed to protect the sensor during the solder process. It also sets the correct sensor-to-PCB distance as
the lead shoulders do not normally rest on the PCB
surface. The fixture should be designed to expose
the sensor leads to solder while shielding the optical
aperture from direct solder contact.
5. Place the lens onto the base plate.
6. Remove the protective kapton tape from optical
aperture of the sensor. Care must be taken to keep

8. The optical position reference for the PCB is set by the
base plate and lens. Note that the PCB motion due to
button presses must be minimized to maintain optical
alignment.
9. Install mouse top case. There MUST be a feature in the
top case to press down onto the clip to ensure all
components are interlocked to the correct vertical
height.

Power management modes
The lines that comprise the SPI port:
The ADNS-3040 has three power-saving modes. Each
mode has a different motion detection period, affecting
response time to mouse motion (Response Time). The
sensor automatically changes to the appropriate mode,
depending on the time since the last reported motion
(Downshift Time). The parameters of each mode are
shown in the following table.
SCLK:
Clock input. It is always generated by the master (the
micro-controller).
Motion Pin Timing
The motion pin is a level-sensitive output that signals the
micro-controller when motion has occurred. The motion
pin is lowered whenever the motion bit is set; in other
words, whenever there is data in the Delta_X or Delta_Y
registers. Clearing the motion bit (by reading Delta_Y
and Delta_X, or writing to the Motion register) will put
the motion pin high.
LED Mode
For power savings, the LED will not be continuously on.
ADNS-3040 will flash the LED only when needed.
Synchronous Serial Port
The synchronous serial port is used to set and read parameters in the ADNS-3040, and to read out the motion
information.
The port is a four wire serial port. The host micro-controller always initiates communication; the ADNS-3040
never initiates data transfers. SCLK, MOSI, and NCS may
be driven directly by a micro-controller. The port pins
may be shared with other SPI slave devices. When the
NCS pin is high, the inputs are ignored and the output
is tri-stated.

MOSI:
Input data. (Master Out/Slave In)
MISO:
Output data. (Master In/Slave Out)
NCS:
Chip select input (active low). NCS needs to be low to
activate the serial port; otherwise, MISO will be high Z,
and MOSI & SCLK will be ignored. NCS can also be used
to reset the serial port in case of an error.
Chip Select Operation
The serial port is activated after NCS goes low. If NCS
is raised during a transaction, the entire transaction is
aborted and the serial port will be reset. This is true for
all transactions. After a transaction is aborted, the normal address-to-data or transaction-to-transaction delay
is still required before beginning the next transaction.
To improve communication reliability, all serial transactions should be framed by NCS. In other words, the port
should not remain enabled during periods of non-use
because ESD and EFT/B events could be interpreted as
serial communication and put the chip into an unknown
state. In addition, NCS must be raised after each burstmode transaction is complete to terminate burst-mode.
The port is not available for further use until burst-mode
is terminated.
Write Operation
Write operation, defined as data going from the microcontroller to the ADNS-3040, is always initiated by the
micro-controller and consists of two bytes. The first byte
contains the address (seven bits) and has a “1” as its MSB
to indicate data direction. The second byte contains
the data. The ADNS-3040 reads MOSI on rising edges
of SCLK.
ADNS-3040 over MISO. The sensor outputs MISO bits on
falling edges of SCLK and samples MOSI bits on every
rising edge of SCLK.

Read Operation
MISO
A read operation, defined as data going from the ADNS3040 to the micro-controller, is always initiated by the
micro-controller and consists of two bytes. The first byte
contains the address, is sent by the micro-controller over
MOSI, and has a “0” as its MSB to indicate data direction.
The second byte contains the data and is driven by the
D0
Figure 16. MISO Delay and Hold Time
NOTE:
The 0.5/fSCLK minimum high state of SCLK is also the minimum MISO data
hold time of the ADNS-3040. Since the falling edge of SCLK is actually
the start of the next read or write command, the ADNS-3040 will hold
the state of data on MISO until the falling edge of SCLK.

Required timing between Read and Write Commands
Burst Mode Operation
There are minimum timing requirements between read
and write commands on the serial port.
Burst mode is a special serial port operation mode that
may be used to reduce the serial transaction time for a
motion read. The speed improvement is achieved by
continuous data clocking from multiple registers without the need to specify the register address, and by not
requiring the normal delay period between data bytes.
If the rising edge of the SCLK for the last data bit of the
second write command occurs before the required delay
(tSWW ), then the first write command may not complete
correctly.
Burst mode is activated by reading the Motion_Burst
register. The ADNS-3040 will respond with the contents
of the Motion, Delta_Y, Delta_X, SQUAL, Shutter_Upper,
Shutter_Lower and Maximum_Pixel registers in that
order. The burst transaction can be terminated after the
first 3 bytes of the sequence are read by bringing the
NCS pin high. After sending the register address, the
micro-controller must wait tSRAD and then begin reading
data. All data bits can be read with no delay between
bytes by driving SCLK at the normal rate. The data is
latched into the output buffer after the last address bit
is received. After the burst transmission is complete, the
micro-controller must raise the NCS line for at least tBEXIT
to terminate burst mode. The serial port is not available
for use until it is reset with NCS, even for a second burst
transmission.
If the rising edge of SCLK for the last address bit of the
read command occurs before the required delay (tSWR),
the write command may not complete correctly.
During a read operation SCLK should be delayed at least
tSRAD after the last address data bit to ensure that the
ADNS-3040 has time to prepare the requested data. The
falling edge of SCLK for the first address bit of either the
read or write command must be at least tSRR or tSRW after
the last SCLK rising edge of the last data bit of the previous read operation.

Notes on Power-up
The ADNS-3040 does not perform an internal power up
self-reset; the POWER_UP_RESET register must be written
every time power is applied. The appropriate sequence
is as follows:

2. Drive NCS high, then low to reset the SPI port
3. Write 0x5a to register 0x3a
4. Read from registers 0x02, 0x03 and 0x04 (or read
these same 3 bytes from burst motion
register 0x42) one time regardless the state of the
motion pin.
During power-up there will be a period of time after the
power supply is high but before any clocks are available.
The table below shows the state of the various pins during power-up and reset.
Notes on Shutdown and Forced Rest
The ADNS-3040 can be set to Rest mode through the
Configuration_Bits register (0x11). This is to allow for
further power savings in applications where the sensor
does not need to operate all the time.
The ADNS-3040 can be set to Shutdown mode by asserting the SHTDWN pin. For proper operation, SHTDWN
pulse width must be at least tSTDWN. Shorter pulse
widths may cause the chip to enter an undefined state.
In addition, the SPI port should not be accessed when
SHTDWN is asserted. (Other ICs on the same SPI bus can
be accessed, as long as the sensor’s NCS pin is not asserted.) The table below shows the state of various pins
during shutdown. After deasserting SHTDWN, a full reset
must be initiated. Wait tWAKEUP before accessing the SPI
port, then write 0x5A to the POWER_UP_RESET register.
Any register settings must then be reloaded.

and forced Rest. These features should not
be
used for power management during normal
mouse motion.

Data Type: Bit field.
USAGE: Register 0x02 allows the user to determine if motion has occurred since the last time it was read. If the MOT
bit is set, then the user should read registers 0x03 and 0x04 to get the accumulated motion. Read this register before
reading the Delta_Y and Delta_X registers.
Writing anything to this register clears the MOT and OVF bits, Delta_Y and Delta_X registers. The written data byte
is not saved.
Internal buffers can accumulate more than eight bits of motion for X or Y. If either one of the internal buffers overflows,
then absolute path data is lost and the
OVF bit is set. This bit is cleared once some motion has been read from
the Delta_X and Delta_Y registers, and if the buffers are not at full scale. Since more data is present in the buffers, the
cycle of reading the Motion, Delta_X and Delta_Y registers should be repeated until the motion bit (MOT) is cleared.
Until MOT is cleared, either the Delta_X or Delta_Y registers will read either positive or negative full scale. If the motion
register has not been read for long time, at 400 cpi it may take up to 16 read cycles to clear the buffers, at 800 cpi, up
to 32 cycles. To clear an overflow, write anything to this register.
The PIXRDY bit will be set whenever a valid pixel data byte is available in the Pixel_Dump register. Check that this bit
is set before reading from Pixel_Dump. To ensure that the Pixel_Grab pointer has been reset to pixel 0,0 on the initial
write to Pixel_Grab, check to see if PIXFIRST is set to high.

Data Type: Upper 8 bits of a 9-bit unsigned integer.
USAGE: SQUAL (Surface Quality) is a measure of the number of valid features visible by the sensor in the current
frame.
The maximum SQUAL register value is 167. Since small changes in the current frame can result in changes in SQUAL,
variations in SQUAL when looking at a surface are expected. The graph below shows 500 sequentially acquired SQUAL
values, while a sensor was moved slowly over white paper. SQUAL is nearly equal to zero, if there is no surface below
the sensor. SQUAL is typically maximized when the navigation surface is at the optimum distance from the imaging
lens (the nominal Z-height).

Data Type: Eight-bit word.
USAGE: For test purposes, the sensor will read out the contents of the pixel array, one pixel per frame. To start a pixel
grab, write anything to this register to reset the pointer to pixel 0,0. Then read the PIXRDY bit in the Motion register.
When the PIXRDY bit is set, there is valid data in this register to read out. After the data in this register is read, the
pointer will automatically increment to the next pixel. Reading may continue indefinitely; once a complete frame’s
worth of pixels has been read, PIXFIRST will be set to high to indicate the start of the first pixel and the address pointer
will start at the beginning location again.

TESTEN
Data Type: Bit field
USAGE: Set the TESTEN bit in register 0x10 to start the system self-test. The test takes 250ms. During this time, do
not write or read through the SPI port. Results are available in the CRC0-3 registers. After self-test, reset the chip to
start normal operation.

Data Type: Bit field
USAGE: Register 0x11 allows the user to change the configuration of the sensor. Setting the RESTEN bit forces the
sensor into Rest mode, as described in the power modes section above. The RES bit allows selection between 400
and 800 cpi resolution.
Note: Forced Rest has a long wakeup time and should not be used for power management during normal mouse
motion.
