LMX2594: SPI access failure

Part Number: LMX2594


Hello,

 

My customer is trying to write/read LMX2594 registers via SPI, but it does not go well.

Somehow, all read back values are all zero.

 

Here some questions from my customer.

 

Q1:

Though datasheet specifies tECS(min) = 5ns for writing and tECS(min) = 10ns for reading, are there any tECS(max) spec? At my customer board, tECS is hundreds ms. If tECS is quit a lot of time, no SPI access timeout? 

 

Q2:

At my customer board, SCK is not continuous. The SCK is repeated intermittently every 8 clocks as follows. Is this OK or SCK has to be continuous?

 

 

Q3:

Could you comment if there are other possible causes?

 

Best regards,

 

K.Hirano
