Threshold Detect Levels

The threshold detection of the AD4080 includes a hysteresis set-

ting. By configuring this setting, the user can ensure that unwanted

threshold triggering can be avoided. Figure 82 shows how this can

be achieved. A single hysteresis setting is configured, that is then

applied to both the HI_THRESHOLD and LO_THRESHOLD bits.

The high and low detection flags remain set until the hysteresis

thresholds are crossed.

Figure 82. Threshold Detect Levels

Enabling Event Detection

By default, after power on or reset, HI_ROUTE and LO_ROUTE

are set to Logic 0, masking the threshold level detection from

generating any event alert. When enabled, the gated versions of

these signals, HI_DTCT_GATED and LO_DTCT_GATED, are logic

NOR'd to generate the ALERT signal. If a user requires the use

of the HI_DTCT, LO_DTCT, or ALERT signals to flag an event

occurrence externally, back to a digital host, the GPIO_x_SEL

registers can be used to route any, or multiple, of these signals to

the GPIO pins.

Event Detection for FIFO

Event detection can also be used to arm the on-chip FIFO. The

event detection for the FIFO can be triggered using either internal

or external events as detailed in the Table 26 section.

To use the ALERT signal to trigger the FIFO, the HI_ROUTE

and/or the LO_ROUTE bits must be configured as required, and

the INT_EVENT_EN bit must be set to 1, to use a combined

ALERT output to trigger the FIFO. Alternately, when configured

with the INT_EVENT_EN bit set to 0, a GPIO EXT_EVENT input

must be configured, and this input triggers the FIFO when a Logic

1 is presented on the GPIO. Because this event was generated

externally, there is no ALERT signal generated.

The HI_THRESHOLD (Address 021 and Address 022) and

LO_THRESHOLD (Address 0x23 and Address 0x 24) bits can

be used to configure the ADC output code thresholds for the

internal event detection. These bits can each be masked using

the HI_ROUTE and LO_ROUTE bits in the general configuration

bits to be used for the ALERT flag (that can be monitored using

a preconfigured GPIO), it is also enabled as a FIFO event trigger

as well as making these available as HI_STATUS and LO_STATUS

flags in the device status register (Address 0x14).

Event Detection ADC Data Result

The ADC data result, as shown in Figure 80, is dependent of the

selected data path. As is evident in Figure 94, where the digital filter

(see the Digital Filter section) is enabled, the output of the selected

filter refers to the ADC data result that is checked by the threshold

detection for event detection.

RESULT FIFO

A single port data FIFO was integrated into the AD4080 for applica-

tions where a reduced data interface transmission load is required

and where asynchronous data capture and access is appropriate.

This FIFO can serve to reduce the requirements for the digital host

controller and can, for example, enable the AD4080 to be deployed

in systems using an MCU digital host. The data FIFO allows for a

record of up to 16,384 data results to be captured per acquisition

burst without result loss due to data overflow. As a single port

memory, simultaneous data interface read and ADC conversion

result write operations are not permitted to the FIFO.

To allow synchronization of FIFO access between the host control-

ler and ADC, status flags are included to indicate if the memory

is full (FIFO_FULL) or if no new data available in the FIFO

(FIFO_READ_DONE), that is, there is no new data since the last

trigger was set, or the last FIFO data read back of a result record

has already been completed. When N = WATERMARK is reached,

that is, when the conversion result corresponding to the specified

count in the FIFO_WATERMARK register is loaded into the data

FIFO, memory is set as full, and the FIFO_FULL bit gets asserted

in device status register (see the Device Status Register section,

Address 0x4). The status bits can be accessed by reading directly

from the device status register (Address 0x14) via the configuration

SPI, appending the status to the data SPI frame, or by assigning

the desired status flags to a GPIO pin by setting the required

GPIO_x_SEL bit. Further details on these GPIO can be found in

the GPIO Pins section. The user can also select between various

modes of initiating the burst acquisition, which will be described

further in the FIFO Mode Selection and Configuration section.
