TEST CONDITIONS
For the ac signal specifications (timing parameters), see Timing
Specifications on Page 21. These specifications include output
disable time, output enable time, and capacitive loading. The
timing specifications for the DSP apply for the voltage reference
levels in Figure 28.
Output Disable Time
Output pins are considered to be disabled when they stop driv-
ing, go into a high impedance state, and start to decay from their
output high or low voltage. The time for the voltage on the bus
to decay by 'V is dependent on the capacitive load, C
L
, and the
load current, I
L
. This decay time can be approximated by the fol-
lowing equation:
The output disable time t
DIS
is the difference between
t
MEASURED
and t
DECAY
as shown in Figure 29. The time t
MEASURED
is
the interval from when the reference signal switches to when the
output voltage decays 'V from the measured output high or
output low voltage. t
DECAY
is calculated with test loads C
L
and I
L
,
and with 'V equal to 0.5 V.
Output Enable Time
Output pins are considered to be enabled when they have made
a transition from a high impedance state to when they start driv-
ing. The output enable time t
ENA
is the interval from when a
reference signal reaches a high or low voltage level to when the
output has reached a specified high or low trip point, as shown
in the Output Enable/Disable diagram (Figure 29). If multiple
pins (such as the data bus) are enabled, the measurement value
is that of the first pin to start driving.
Example System Hold Time Calculation
To determine the data output hold time in a particular system,
first calculate t
DECAY
using the equation given above. Choose 'V
to be the difference between the ADSP-2106x’s output voltage
and the input threshold for the device requiring the hold time. A
typical 'V will be 0.4 V. C
L
is the total bus capacitance (per data
line), and I
L
is the total leakage or three-state current (per data
line). The hold time will be t
DECAY
plus the minimum disable
time (i.e., t
DATRWH
for the write cycle).
Capacitive Loading
Output delays and holds are based on standard capacitive loads:
50 pF on all pins (see Figure 30). The delay and hold specifica-
tions given should be derated by a factor of 1.5 ns/50 pF for
loads other than the nominal value of 50 pF. Figure 32,
Figure 33, Figure 37, and Figure 38 show how output rise time
varies with capacitance. Figure 34 and Figure 36 show
graphically how output delays and holds vary with load capaci-
tance. (Note that this graph or derating does not apply to output
disable delays; see the previous section Output Disable Time
under Test Conditions.) The graphs of Figure 32, Figure 33,
Figure 37, and Figure 38 may not be linear outside the ranges
shown.
Output Drive Characteristics
Figure 31 shows typical I-V characteristics for the output driv-
ers of the ADSP-2106x. The curves represent the current drive
capability of the output drivers as a function of output voltage.
