INSTRUCTIONS
Instruction op codes are used to read, write and configure the HI-
3593. When CS goes low, the next 8 clocks at the SCK pin shift an
instruction op code into the decoder, starting with the first rising
edge. The op code is fed into the SI pin, most significant bit first.
SPI Instructions are of a common format. The first bit specifies
whether the instruction is a write “0” or read “1” transfer. The next
five bits specify the source or destination of the associated data
byte(s), and the last two bits are “don’t care”.
For write instructions, the most significant bit of the data word must
immediately follow the instruction op code and is clocked into its
register on the next rising SCK edge. Data word length varies
depending on word type written: 8-bit Control Register writes, 32-
bit ARINC label writes or 256-bit writes to a channel’s label-
matching enable/disable memory.

For read instructions, the most significant bit of the requested data
word appears at the SO pin after the last op code bit is clocked into
the decoder, at the next falling SCK edge. As in write instructions,
the data field bit-length varies with read instruction type.
