DAC61416: Frame Error Checking Time / from CS signal to ALMOUT signal

Part Number: DAC61416
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DAC81416

Hi exparts,

We plan to enable CRC check to confirm the integrity of SPI data communication.

Could you tell me the time from CS rising edge to ALMOUT output?

  • Hi Hiromu-san,


    I will check with my team and get back to you by tomorrow.

    Thanks,

  • Hi Sanjay,

    OK, let me know once you get the info.

  • Hi Hiromu-san,


    There is no direct way to estimate this time from CS rising edge to ALMOUT output from datasheet and design team needs time to do simulation to get a faithful number. For now please ask customer to add 0.25 ms delay before measurement of the ALARM OUT. 

    I would be able to provide this data by next week. Hope that's okay.

    Thanks,
    Sanjay 

  • Hi Sanjay,

    As the feedback, 0.25ms is too slow.

    Before confirming acculate timing of that, could you tell me which way is faster?:

    It is written in the datasheet that the error can be confirmed by the CRC-error bit on the next read access where the CRC error occurred.(6.5.3) Since the SCLK is a maximum of 35 MHz, I feel that it can be reflected in ALMOUT in a few usec. If it is too late to reflect information to ALMOUT, I think it will be confirmed by SDO, but what do you think?

  • Hi Hiromu-san,


    Once configured, CRC - error signal ()if there is any) comes to the ALMOUT pin first of the device DAC81416 and not on SDO line.
