ADSP-21xx
Flexible Framing—The
SPORTs have independent framing
for the transmit and receive functions; each function can run in
a frameless mode or with frame synchronization signals inter-
nally generated or externally generated; frame sync signals may
be active high or inverted, with either of two pulse widths and
timings.
Different Word Lengths—Each
SPORT supports serial data
word lengths from 3 to 16 bits.
Companding in Hardware—Each
SPORT provides optional
A-law and
µ-law
companding according to CCITT recommen-
dation G.711.
Flexible Interrupt Scheme—Receive
and transmit functions
can generate a unique interrupt upon completion of a data word
transfer.
Autobuffering with Single-Cycle Overhead—Each
SPORT
can automatically receive or transmit the contents of an entire
circular data buffer with only one overhead cycle per data word;
an interrupt is generated after the transfer of the entire buffer is
completed.
Multichannel Capability (SPORT0 Only)—SPORT0
provides a multichannel interface to selectively receive or
transmit a 24-word or 32-word, time-division multiplexed serial
bit stream; this feature is especially useful for T1 or CEPT
interfaces, or as a network communication scheme for multiple
processors. (Note that the ADSP-2105 includes only SPORT1,
not SPORT0, and thus does not offer multichannel operation.)
Alternate Configuration—SPORT1
can be alternatively
configured as two external interrupt inputs (IRQ0,
IRQ1)
and
the Flag In and Flag Out signals (FI, FO).
Host Interface Port (ADSP-2111)
of the ADSP-2111. The two status registers provide status
information to both the ADSP-2111 and the host processor.
HSR7 contains a software reset bit which can be set by both the
ADSP-2111 and the host.
HIP transfers can be managed using either interrupts or polling.
The HIP generates an interrupt whenever an HDR register
receives data from a host processor write. It also generates an
interrupt when the host processor has performed a successful
read of any HDR. The read/write status of the HDRs is also
stored in the HSR registers.
The HMASK register bits can be used to mask the generation of
read or write interrupts from individual HDR registers. Bits in
the IMASK register enable and disable all HIP read interrupts
or all HIP write interrupts. So, for example, a write to HDR4
will cause an interrupt only if both the
HDR4 Write
bit in
HMASK and the
HIP Write
interrupt enable bit in IMASK are
set.
The HIP provides a second method of booting the ADSP-2111
in which the host processor loads instructions into the HIP. The
ADSP-2111 automatically transfers the data, in this case
opcodes, to internal program memory. The BMODE pin
determines whether the ADSP-2111 boots from the host
processor through the HIP or from external EPROM over the
data bus.
Interrupts
The ADSP-2111 includes a Host Interface Port (HIP), a
parallel I/O port that allows easy connection to a host processor.
Through the HIP, the ADSP-2111 can be accessed by the host
processor as a memory-mapped peripheral. The host interface
port can be thought of as an area of dual-ported memory, or
mailbox registers, that allows communication between the
computational core of the ADSP-2111 and the host computer.
The host interface port is completely asynchronous. The host
processor can write data into the HIP while the ADSP-2111 is
operating at full speed.
Three pins configure the HIP for operation with different types
of host processors. The HSIZE pin configures HIP for 8- or 16-
bit communication with the host processor. HMD0 configures
the bus strobes, selecting either separate read and write strobes
or a single read/write select and a host data strobe. HMD1
selects either separate address (3-bit) and data (16-bit) buses or
a multiplexed 16-bit address/data bus with address latch enable.
Tying these pins to appropriate values configures the ADSP-
2111 for straight-wire interface to a variety of industry-standard
microprocessors and microcomputers.
The HIP contains six data registers (HDR5-0) and two status
registers (HSR7-6) with an associated HMASK register for
masking interrupts from individual HIP data registers. The HIP
data registers are memory-mapped in the internal data memory
The ADSP-21xx’s interrupt controller lets the processor
respond to interrupts with a minimum of overhead. Up to three
external interrupt input pins,
IRQ0, IRQ1,
and
IRQ2,
are
provided.
IRQ2
is always available as a dedicated pin;
IRQ1
and
IRQ0
may be alternately configured as part of Serial Port 1. The
ADSP-21xx also supports internal interrupts from the timer, the
serial ports, and the host interface port (on the ADSP-2111).
The interrupts are internally prioritized and individually
maskable (except for
RESET
which is non-maskable). The
IRQx
input pins can be programmed for either level- or edge-
sensitivity. The interrupt priorities for each ADSP-21xx
processor are shown in Table III.
The ADSP-21xx uses a vectored interrupt scheme: when an
interrupt is acknowledged, the processor shifts program control
to the interrupt vector address corresponding to the interrupt
received. Interrupts can be optionally nested so that a higher
priority interrupt can preempt the currently executing interrupt
service routine. Each interrupt vector location is four instruc-
tions in length so that simple service routines can be coded
entirely in this space. Longer service routines require an
additional JUMP or CALL instruction.
Individual interrupt requests are logically ANDed with the bits
in the IMASK register; the highest-priority unmasked interrupt
is then selected.
The interrupt control register, ICNTL, allows the external
interrupts to be set as either edge- or level-sensitive. Depending
on bit 4 in ICNTL, interrupt service routines can either be
nested (with higher priority interrupts taking precedence) or be
processed sequentially (with only one interrupt service active at
a time).
