GS2971A Datasheet, PDF (95/152 Pages) Gennum Corporation – Integrated audio clock generator

The GSPI is comprised of a Serial Data Input signal (SDIN), Serial Data Output signal
(SDOUT), an active low Chip Select (CS), and a Burst Clock (SCLK).
Because these pins are shared with the JTAG interface port, an additional control signal
pin JTAG/HOST is provided.
When JTAG/HOST is LOW, the GSPI interface is enabled. When JTAG/HOST is HIGH, the
JTAG interface is enabled.
When operating in GSPI mode, the SCLK, SDIN, and CS signals must be provided by the
system. The SDOUT pin is a non-clocked loop-through of SDIN and may be connected to
the SDIN of another device, allowing multiple devices to be connected to the GSPI chain.
See Section 4.20.2 for details. The interface is illustrated in the Figure 4-48 below.

All read or write access to the GS2971A is initiated and terminated by the system host
processor. Each access always begins with a Command/Address Word, followed by a
data write to, or data read from, the GS2971A.
4.20.1 Command Word Description
The Command Word consists of a 16-bit word transmitted MSB first and contains a
read/write bit, an Auto-Increment bit and a 12-bit address.

Figure 4-49:Command Word Format
Command Words are clocked into the GS2971A on the rising edge of the Serial Clock
SCLK, which operates in a burst fashion. The chip select (CS) signal must be set low a
minimum of 1.5ns (t0 in Figure 4-51) before the first clock edge to ensure proper
operation.
When the Auto-Increment bit is set LOW, each Command Word must be followed by
only one Data Word to ensure proper operation.
