Standard Frame

The SDI input data word is 2 bytes long and consists of the following format:

  • Command byte (first byte)
    • MSB bit indicates frame type (bit B15 = 0 for standard frame).
    • Next to MSB bit, W0, indicates read or write operation (bit B14, write = 0, read = 1)
    • Followed by 6 address bits, A[5:0] (bits B13 through B8)
  • Data byte (second byte)
    • Second byte indicates data, D[7:0] (bits B7 through B0). For a read operation, these bits are typically set to null values, while for a write operation, these bits have the data value for the addressed register.

The SDO output data word is 2 bytes long and consists of the following format:

  • Status byte (first byte)
    • 2 MSB bits are forced high (B15, B14 = 1)
    • Following 6 bits are from the FAULT SUMMARY register (B13:B8)
  • Report byte (second byte)
    • The second byte (B7:B0) is either the data currently in the register being read for a read operation (W0 = 1), or, existing data in the register being written to for a write command (W0 = 0)
