To add flexibility to the full-duplex digital interface port, several
programming options are available in the SPI registers. These
options are listed in Table 14. The timing for the Tx[5:0] and/or
Rx[5:0] ports can be independently changed by selecting either
the rising or falling clock edge as the sampling/validating edge
of the clock. Inverting RXCLK (via Bit 1 or Register 0x05)
affects both the Rx and Tx interface, because they both use
RXCLK.

The default Tx and Rx data input formats are twos complement,
but can be changed to straight binary. The default TXSYNC and
RXSYNC settings can be changed such that the first nibble of
the word appears while TXSYNC, RXSYNC, or both are high.
Also, the least significant nibble can be selected as the first
nibble of the word (LS nibble first). The output driver strength
can also be reduced for lower data rate applications.

Figure 55 shows a possible digital interface between an ASIC
and the AD9866. The AD9866 serves as the master generating
the required clocks for the ASIC. This interface requires that the
ASIC reserve 16 pins for the interface, assuming a 6-bit nibble
width and the use of the Tx port for RxPGA gain control. Note
that the ASIC pin allocation can be reduced by 3, if a 5-bit
nibble width is used and the gain (or gain strobe) of the RxPGA
is controlled via the SPI port.
DIGITAL ASIC
RxPGA CONTROL
The AD9866 contains a digital PGA in the Rx path that is used
to extend the dynamic range. The RxPGA can be programmed
over a −12 dB to +48 dB with 1 dB resolution using a 6-bit
word, and with a 0 dB setting corresponding to a 2 V p-p input
signal. The 6-bit word is fed into a LUT that is used to distribute
the desired gain over three amplification stages within the Rx
path. Upon power-up, the RxPGA gain register is set to its
minimum gain of −12 dB. The RxPGA gain mapping is shown
in Figure 56. Table 15 lists the SPI registers pertaining to the
RxPGA.
