LMX2624-SP supports SPI Mode 0 (CPOL=0, CPHA=0) and Mode 3 (CPOL=01 CPHA=1).

There are several other considerations for writing on the SPI:

  • The R/W bit must be set to 0.
  • The data on SDI pin is clocked into a shift register on each rising edge on the SCK pin. On the rising edge of the 24th clock cycle, the data is transferred from the data field into the selected register bank.
  • The CSB must be held low for data to be clocked. Device is ignore clock pulses if CSB is held high.
  • If the MUXOUT pin is configured as SPI SDO, the MUXOUT pin is tristated during all write transactions and when CSB is high.
  • When SCK and SDI lines are shared between devices, TI recommends hold the CSB line high on the device that is not to be clocked.

There are several other considerations for SPI readback:

  • The R/W bit must be set to 1.
  • The MUXout pin is tristated for the address portion of the transaction, and when the CSB pin is high.
  • The data on MUXout becomes available momentarily after the falling edge of SCK and therefore must be read back on the rising edge of SCK.
  • The data portion of the transition on the SDI line is always ignored.
