MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
The serial interface on the AD7321 allows the part to be directly
connected to a range of different microprocessors. This section
explains how to interface the AD7321 with some common
microcontroller and DSP serial interface protocols.
AD7321 TO ADSP-21xx
The ADSP-21xx family of DSPs interface directly to the AD7321
without requiring glue logic. The V
DRIVE
pin of the AD7321 takes
the same supply voltage as that of the ADSP-21xx. This allows the
ADC to operate at a higher supply voltage than its serial interface.
The SPORT0 on the ADSP-21xx should be configured as shown
in Table 14.
Table 14. SPORT0 Control Register Setup
Setting Description
TFSW = RFSW = 1 Alternative framing
INVRFS = INVTFS = 1 Active low frame signal
DTYPE = 00
Right justify data
SLEN = 1111 16-bit data-word
ISCLK = 1 Internal serial clock
TFSR = RFSR = 1 Frame every word
IRFS = 0
ITFS = 1
The connection diagram is shown in Figure 51. The ADSP-21xx
has TFS0 and RFS0 tied together. TFS0 is set as an output, and
RFS0 is set as an input. The DSP operates in alternative framing
mode, and the SPORT0 control register is set up as described in
Table 14. The frame synchronization signal generated on the TFS
is tied to
CS
, and, as with all signal processing applications, requires
equidistant sampling. However, as in this example, the timer
interrupt is used to control the sampling rate of the ADC, and
under certain conditions equidistant sampling cannot be achieved.

The timer registers are loaded with a value that provides an
interrupt at the required sampling interval. When an interrupt
is received, a value is transmitted with TFS/DT (ADC control
word). The TFS is used to control the RFS, and hence the
reading of data.
The frequency of the serial clock is set in the SCLKDIV register.
When the instruction to transmit with TFS is given (AX0 = TX0),
the state of the serial clock is checked. The DSP waits until the
SCLK has gone high, low, and high again before starting the
transmission. If the timer and SCLK are chosen so that the
instruction to transmit occurs on or near the rising edge of SCLK,
data is transmitted immediately or at the next clock edge.
For example, the ADSP-2111 has a master clock frequency of
16 MHz. If the SCLKDIV register is loaded with the value 3, an
SCLK of 2 MHz is obtained, and eight master clock periods elapse
for every one SCLK period. If the timer registers are loaded with
the value 803, 100.5 SCLKs occur between interrupts and, sub-
sequently, between transmit instructions. This situation leads to
nonequidistant sampling because the transmit instruction occurs
on an SCLK edge. If the number of SCLKs between interrupts is
an integer of N, equidistant sampling is implemented by the DSP.
AD7321 TO ADSP-BF53x
The ADSP-BF53x family of DSPs interfaces directly to the
AD7321 without requiring glue logic, as shown in Figure 52.
The SPORT0 Receive Configuration 1 register should be set
up as outlined in Table 15.
