The input to the on-chip oscillator inverter, for external Xtal circuit or clock. The 'C-BUS' serial clock input. This clock, produced by the µC, is used for transfer timing of commands and data to and from the device. See Figure 5. The 'C-BUS' serial data input from the µC. Data is loaded into this device in 8-bit bytes, MSB (B7) first, and LSB (B0) last, synchronized to the SERIAL CLOCK. See Figure 5. The 'C-BUS' serial data output to the µC. The transmission of REPLY DATA bytes is synchronized to the SERIAL CLOCK under the control of the CS input. This tri-state output is held at high impedance when not sending data to the µC. See Figure 5. The 'C-BUS' data loading control function. This input is provided by the µC. Data transfer sequences are initiated, completed or aborted by the CS signal. See Figure 5. This output indicates an interrupt condition to the µC by going to a logic '0'. This is a 'wire-ORable' output, enabling the connection of up to 8 peripherals to 1 interrupt port on the µC. This pin has a low impedance pulldown to logic '0' when active and a high-impedance when inactive. An external pullup resistor is required.

These values should be determined in regard to the amount of supply filtering required for D/A outputs. 2. If an external clock is to be used, then it should be connected to Pin 2 and the components C1, C2, R1, and X1 omitted. The ADC clock frequency is derived from the crystal or external clock by means of internal programmable dividers. See Section 6 for details of crystal or external clock frequency range. 3. For best results, a crystal oscillator design should drive the clock inverter input with signal levels of at least 40% of VDD, peak to peak. Tuning fork crystals generally cannot meet this requirement. To obtain crystal oscillator design assistance, consult your crystal manufacturer. © 1998 MXxCOM Inc. www.mxcom.com Tele: 800 638-5577 336 744-5050 Fax: 336 744-5054 Doc. # 20480164.002 4800 Bethania Station Road, Winston-Salem, NC 27105-1201 USA All trademarks and service marks are held by their respective companies. Digitally Controlled Analog I/O Processor 6 MX839 PRELIMINARY INFORMATION 4 General Description The device comprises four groups of related functions: variable attenuators, digital to analog converters, a multiplexed analog to digital converter with multiplexer, clock generator and four 8-bit magnitude comparators with variable reference levels. These functions are all controlled by the 'C-BUS' serial interface and are described below: 4.1 4.2 Variable Attenuators Digital to Analog Converters The two variable attenuators have a range of 0 to -12dB and 0 to -6dB respectively and may be controlled independently. Three DACs are provided with default resolutions of 8 bits, which are defined at the initial chip reset. In this mode the 'C-BUS' data is transferred in a single byte. An option is provided to define any one or more of the DAC resolutions to be 10 bits, then the DAC requires the transfer of two 'C-BUS' data bytes. The upper and lower DAC reference voltages are defined internally as AVDD and VSS respectively. The output voltage is expressed as: VOUT = AVDD x (DATA / 2n) [Volts] Where, n is the DAC resolution (8 or 10 bits) and DATA is the decimal value of the input code. For example: n = 8 and binary code = 11111111 therefore DATA = 255 VOUT = AVDD x (255 / 256) [Volts] Any one of the three DAC input latches might be loaded by sending an address/command byte followed by one or two data bytes to the 'C-BUS' interface. The data is then latched and the static voltage is updated at the appropriate output. When a DAC is disabled, its output is defined as open-circuit. 4.3 Analog to Digital Converter and A/D Clock Generator A single successive approximation A/D is provided with four multiplexed inputs. After a general reset command $01, the A/D converter subsystem is disabled. To start conversions the Clock Control ($D0) and A/D control ($D7) registers must be written (refer to Tables 2,6, and 8). Please note that A/D channel 1 must be active for any other channel to work. Also note that A/D control register bit 5 ( READ ) should be set low prior to issuing a ‘READ A/D DATA x’ command to disable conversions so the data being read does not change during the read which could otherwise result in erroneous data being read. To re-enable conversions the A/D control register bit 5 ( READ ) bit must be set back high. The internal A/D clock frequency (fA/D_CLK) is generated with a programmable clock generator. Users have flexible control of this clock signal via the Clock Control Register ($D0), DIVIDER set per Table 6, and the choice of an external system clock signal or a dedicated crystal. fA/D_CLK should be chosen not to exceed 1MHz. Since the typical application is for monitoring slowly changing control voltages, a Sample and Hold circuit is not included at the input of the A/D. Thus, for the analog to digital conversion to be accurate, the input signal should not change significantly during the conversion time. For ‘n-bit’ accuracy (with a maximum error of 1LSB) the maximum signal ‘linear rate of change,’ ‘S,’ is defined by: S= AVDD 2 n f A/D_CLK 1000 (n + 2) [mV/PS] where: n is the number of bits of accuracy with a maximum error of 1 LSB where: f A/D_CLK = f XTAL , DIVIDER is selected per Table 6. DIVIDER For Example: The most significant bits (n) of accuracy. For (n = 6) bit accuracy with AVDD=5V and fA/D_CLK = 1MHz S = 9.77 [mV/PS] For (n = 8) bit accuracy with AVDD=5V and fA/D_CLK = 1MHz S = 1.95 [mV/PS] For (n = 10) bit accuracy with AVDD=3.3V and fA/D_CLK = 1MHz S = 0.27 [mV/PS] The input signal should therefore be band limited to ensure the maximum signal ‘linear rate of change’ is not exceeded for the desired accuracy. © 1998 MXxCOM Inc. www.mxcom.com Tele: 800 638-5577 336 744-5050 Fax: 336 744-5054 Doc. # 20480164.002 4800 Bethania Station Road, Winston-Salem, NC 27105-1201 USA All trademarks and service marks are held by their respective companies. Digitally Controlled Analog I/O Processor 7 MX839 PRELIMINARY INFORMATION After enabling conversions the user must allow time for all enabled channels to be digitized before reading the results via the ‘C-BUS’. The minimum required time to wait is: TCONV_MAX = (10 + 2) ' Number of Enabled Inputs' f A/D_CLK [Seconds] Upon disabling conversions the data for the most recent conversion completed for each channel will be available via the ‘C-BUS’ commands ‘READ A/D DATA x’ (addresses $DC, $DD, $DE, $DF) for input channels 1 through 4 respectively. Do not forget to re-enable conversions by setting A/D control register bit 5, the READ bit, back high after reading the desired A/D results. Note that the Magnitude Comparators (see section 4.4) can be configured to monitor the A/D channel data in order to minimize the software burden of continuously reading the A/D channel data. It is not recommended to issue ‘READ A/D DATA x’ commands without first setting A/D control register bit 5, the READ bit, low.

The digital input to the comparators is provided by the most significant 8 data bits of each A/D channel When the sampled data falls outside the high or low digital comparator reference levels the status register is updated and the IRQ pin is pulled low. When a reference level is set to '0', its IRQ is disabled. 4.5 4.5.1 Software Description Address/Commands Instructions and Data are transferred via the 'C-BUS' in accordance with the timing information provided in Figure 5.

Measured over a 0 to 30kHz Band. 2. The extremes of the DAC output range (when resistively loaded) is affected by the output impedance of the DAC buffer. Under these conditions, the output impedance can approach 200:. However; when the output is operating well within the supply; the output impedance will be significantly lower, thereby improving the loaded performance. 3. RLOAD = 5k: AVDD = 5.0V. 4. Loads less than 1k: will produce output distortion. 5. Small signal impedance, at AVDD = 5V and TAMB = 25°C. 6. Differential non-linearity is defined as the difference in width between adjacent code midpoints and the width of an ideal LSB, divided by the width of an ideal LSB. See Figure 3. 7. Integral non-linearity is defined as the width difference between an actual code midpoint and the line of best fit through all code midpoints, divided by the width of an ideal LSB. See Figure 4. 8. 6MHz operation at VDD = 5.0V only. The ‘C-BUS’ clock must be at lest 4 times slower than the XTAL/CLOCK frequency.
