AFE5809: SPI Transfer

Part Number: AFE5809

Hello,

I am configuring ADC/VCA register. Do I have to transfer all values in single SPI transaction? Where, I keep SEN pin low? or Is it ok to transfer individual 24bits at a time? 

Digital demodulator block can be disabled from a 0x16 register. Is it ok to skip Digital Demod SPI? 

  • Hi Vatsal,

    We have received your inquiry about the device AFE5809 and hope to have some answers back to you by early next week.
  • Hello, My intention is to run AFE cip without using GUI. Mostly I am using SCLK, SEN, SDATA on P14 for transfer. Do I have to GND other pins available on that jumper? 

    I have attached my logic analyzer to see SPI signal on P14 of AFE5809EVM.

    These are the waveform I am getting when I first start GUI. Can you please tell me what are the default values require? 

    I am trying to transfer 0x02, 0xE0 and 0x00 (Total 24 bit) all in in SPI transaction to generate RAMP pattern. But not getting any signal on LVDS lines. 

    Thank you.

  • Hi Vatsal,

    Are you using the AFE5809 with a TSW1400EVM and attempting a capture using that? Are you able to capture the device's bit and frame clocks?
    What is your setup exactly?

    Sincerely,
    Olu
  • Hello Olu,

    I have one connector which I connected on LVDS line so from there I can see the LVDS differential pair output FCLK/DCLK etc, I can see changes in LVDS data if I made some change in GUI for AFE5809.

    But When I try to load data without GUI I am not able to see any output on LVDS lines. Except FCLK. I guess it is always running. I am getting 10MHz by default. 

    Can you please tell me what are the default settings I have to load in to AFE5809 chip ( Register Level) ? I have the list of register's from data sheet but not sure which I have to preload. As shown in my previous post these are the default configuration for GUI to AFE chip. 

  • Hello,

    Can anyone confirm that to use P14 for SPI transfer do I have to remove FB17?
