Serial interface
L6460 can communicate with an external microprocessor by using an integrated slave SPI
(serial protocol interface). Through this interface almost all L6460 functionalities can be
controlled and all the ICs can be seen as a register map made by 128 register of 16-bit
each.
The SPI is a simple industry standard communications interface commonly used in
embedded systems and it has the following four I/O pins:
The “MISO” (master in, slave out) signal carries synchronous data from the slave to the
master device. The MOSI (master out, slave in) signal carries synchronous data from the
master to the slave device. The SCLK signal is driven by the master, synchronizing all data
transfers. Each SPI slave device has one nSS signal that is an active-low slave input/master
output pin. Slave devices do not respond to transactions unless their nSS input signal is
driven low. Master device interfacing with multiple SPI slave devices has an nSS signal for
each slave device.
L6460 will maintain its MISO pin in high impedance until it does not recognize its address in
serial frame.
Read transaction
A read transaction (see
nSS pin. The other bits are then sent on the MOSI pin with this order:
1.
2.
3.
4.
At this point the data stored in the register at the selected address will be shifted out on the
MISO pin.
The read operation is terminated by raising the signal on nSS pin.
