80-0206-R Datasheet, PDF (30/49 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – Speech Recognition Processor

RSC-4128
Data Sheet
cyclical fluctuations in the system power supply from “sagging” due to flash writes during speech recording, and
LED blinking during recording of speech. All of these effects are reduced in speech playback by using a capacitor
closer to 220uF.
NOTE: See Design Notes - “Microphone Housing” and “Selecting Microphone” on the RSC-4x Demo/Evaluation
CD. Improper microphone circuit and/or enclosure design will result in poor recognition performance.
Reset
An external reset is generated by applying a low condition for at least two clock cycles on -RESET, an active low
Schmitt trigger input. The output of the Schmitt trigger passes through a 10 nsec glitch blocking circuit, followed by
an asynchronous flip-flop. The output of the flip-flop generates active high reset throughout RSC-4128. The
internal reset state is held for 20 msec (when clocked by a 14.32 MHz PCLK). The purpose is to allow the
oscillator to stabilize and the PLL to lock before enabling the processor and the other RSC-4128 circuits.
External reset clears the Global Interrupt Enable flag and begins execution at address 0h. The special function
registers will be cleared, set, or left as-is, as detailed in the “Special Function Registers Summary” section.
Watchdog Timeout Reset
A special Watchdog Timeout Reset is produced if the Watchdog Timer is enabled and the Watchdog counter times
out. The only difference between the Watchdog Timeout Reset and an ordinary reset is that the “wd_timed” bit in
the “sysStat” register (register FB.Bit5) is preserved as “1” for a Watchdog Timeout Reset
Digital-to-Analog-Converter (DAC) Output
The DAC consists of an R-2R network with 10 bits of resolution and an output impedance of approximately 11
Kohms. An external amplifier is required to drive a speaker when using the DAC. The specifications of that
amplifier will determine the best choice of speaker impedance and the resulting volume.
The 10-bit resolution corresponds to an analog voltage range between 0V and Vdd minus 1 LSB (represented as
“Vdd-“). At Vdd=3V, one LSB of the R-2R network corresponds to about 3 mV. For example:
R2R Value
000H = 0v
001H = 0v+
200H = Vdd/2
3FFH = Vdd-
DAC output; Vdd=3V
0.000V
0.003V
1.500V
2.997V
There are two DAC output modes, full-scale and half-scale. In full-scale mode the output voltage swings between
0v and Vdd-; in half-scale mode the output swings between Vdd/4 and 3Vdd/4 minus 1 LSB (roughly Vdd/2 +/-
Vdd/4). Values written into the DAC hold register and certain Analog Control register bits are converted into analog
voltages.
The DAC hold register (“dac”; register FA) presents an 8-bit signed value to the DAC unit. In full-scale mode, the 8
most significant bits are driven by the DAC hold register and the 2 least significant bits are driven by the LSB1 and
LSB0 bits in the Analog Control register (“anCtl”; register EF.Bits[5:4]). This results in a total output range of –512
to +511. In half-scale mode the 8 middle bits of are driven by the DAC hold register, the most significant bit is
generated automatically by sign extension, and the least significant bit is driven by bit LSB1 in the Analog Control
register. This gives a total output range of –256 to +255. The half-scale mode is enabled by setting the mode bit
(d2a_half) equal to “1” in register EF.Bit3. The tables below show a selection of values and the resulting output
voltage.
Note: Register EF.Bit7 (“-anctlen”) must be “0” in the value being written to register EF, when writing
EF.Bit2.
