AD7874
Some applications may require that the conversion is initiated
by the microprocessor rather than an external timer. One option
is to decode the AD7874 CONVST from the address bus so
that a write operation starts a conversion. Data is read at the
end of the conversion sequence as before. Figure 16 shows an
example of initiating conversion using this method. Note that
for all interfaces, a read operation should not be attempted dur-
ing conversion.
AD7874–MC68000 Interface
An interface between the AD7874 and the MC68000 is shown
in Figure 15. As before, conversion is initiated using an external
timer. The AD7874 INT line can be used to interrupt the pro-
cessor or, alternatively, software delays can ensure that conver-
sion has been completed before a read to the AD7874 is
attempted. Because of the nature of its interrupts, the 68000
requires additional logic (not shown in Figure 15) to allow it to
be interrupted correctly. For further information on 68000 in-
terrupts, consult the 68000 users manual.
The MC68000 AS and R/W outputs are used to generate a
separate RD input signal for the AD7874. CS is used to drive
the 68000 DTACK input to allow the processor to execute a
normal read operation to the AD7874. The conversion results
are read using the following 68000 instruction:
MOVE.W ADC,D0
where D0 is the 68000 D0 register and
ADC is the AD7874 address.

AD7874–8086 Interface
Figure 16 shows an interface between the AD7874 and the 8086
microprocessor. Unlike the previous interface examples, the
microprocessor initiates conversion. This is achieved by gating
the 8086 WR signal with a decoded address output (different to
the AD7874 CS address). The AD7874 INT line is used to in-
terrupt the microprocessor when the conversion sequence is
completed. Data is read from the AD7874 using the following
instruction:
MOV AX,ADC
where AX is the 8086 accumulator and
ADC is the AD7874 address.
