7.5.6 SPI Daisy Chain

In daisy chain mode of operation, the SPI transaction from the controller consists of three types of segments: Header (16-bit), Address (Nx16-bit,) and Data (Nx8-bit). As the TXE8148 receives the same and transmits to the next device in the chain, the device appends a Status (16-bit) to the transaction, while removing the Address segment and replacing the Data segment that corresponds to the position in the chain.

Figure 7-11 shows an example of a daisy chain write for two devices in a daisy chain. The header byte is transmitted with the chain length (CL) value of 2, followed by the address for DUT2, DUT1 and then the 8-bit data-in for DUT2, DUT1. As the first device shifts the data out, the device transmits the status segment, followed by the original header, address for DUT2, data-out from DUT1 and data-in for DUT2. The final device in the chain sends the status, followed by status for DUT1 and finally data-out for DUT2, DUT1.

Figure 7-12 shows an example of a daisy chain read for two devices in daisy chain. The header byte is transmitted with the chain length (CL) value of 2, followed by the address for DUT2, DUT1 and then the 8-bit dummy data-in for DUT2, DUT1. As the first device shifts the data out, the device transmits the status segment, followed by the original header, address for DUT2, data-out from DUT1 and dummy data-in for DUT2. The final device in the chain sends the status, followed by status for DUT1 and finally data-out for DUT2, DUT1.
