Boot Memory Space
Boot memory space consists of one off-chip bank with 254 pages.
The
BMS
memory bank pin selects boot memory space. Both
the ADSP-219x core and DMA capable peripherals can access
the DSP off-chip boot memory space. After reset, the DSP always
starts executing instructions from the on-chip boot ROM.
Bus Request and Bus Grant
The ADSP-21990 can relinquish control of the data and address
buses to an external device. When the external device requires
access to the bus, it asserts the bus request (
BR
) signal. The (
BR
)
signal is arbitrated with core and peripheral requests. External
Bus requests have the lowest priority. If no other internal request
is pending, the external bus request will be granted. Due to syn-
chronizer and arbitration delays, bus grants will be provided with
a minimum of three peripheral clock delays. The ADSP-21990
will respond to the bus grant by:
Three-stating the data and address buses and the
MS3–0
,
BMS
,
IOMS
,
RD
, and
WR
output drivers.
Asserting the bus grant (
BG
) signal.
The ADSP-21990 will halt program execution if the bus is
granted to an external device and an instruction fetch or data
read/write request is made to external general-purpose or periph-
eral memory spaces. If an instruction requires two external
memory read accesses, the bus will not be granted between the
two accesses. If an instruction requires an external memory read
and an external memory write access, the bus may be granted
between the two accesses. The external memory interface can be
configured so that the core will have exclusive use of the interface.
DMA and Bus Requests will be granted. When the external
device releases
BR
, the DSP releases
BG
and continues program
execution from the point at which it stopped.
The bus request feature operates at all times, even while the DSP
is booting and
RESET
is active.
The ADSP-21990 asserts the
BGH
pin when it is ready to start
another external port access, but is held off because the bus was
previously granted. This mechanism can be extended to define
more complex arbitration protocols for implementing more
elaborate multimaster systems.
DMA Controller
The ADSP-21990 has a DMA controller that supports
automated data transfers with minimal overhead for the DSP
core. Cycle stealing DMA transfers can occur between the
ADSP-21990 internal memory and any of its DMA capable
peripherals. Additionally, DMA transfers can be accomplished
between any of the DMA capable peripherals and external
devices connected to the external memory interface. DMA
capable peripherals include the SPORT and SPI ports, and ADC
Control module. Each individual DMA capable peripheral has a
dedicated DMA channel. To describe each DMA sequence, the
DMA controller uses a set of parameters—called a DMA descrip-
tor. When successive DMA sequences are needed, these DMA
descriptors can be linked or chained together, so the completion
of one DMA sequence auto initiates and starts the next sequence.
DMA sequences do not contend for bus access with the DSP
core, instead DMAs “steal” cycles to access memory.
All DMA transfers use the DMA bus shown in
Figure 1 on
Page 4
. Because all of the peripherals use the same bus, arbitra-
tion for DMA bus access is needed. The arbitration for DMA bus
access appears in
Table 1
.
DSP Peripherals Architecture
The ADSP-21990 contains a number of special purpose,
embedded control peripherals, which can be seen in the Func-
tional Block Diagram on Page 1. The ADSP-21990 contains a
high performance, 8-channel, 14-bit ADC system with dual
channel simultaneous sampling ability across four pairs of inputs.
An internal precision voltage reference is also available as part of
the ADC system. In addition, a 3-phase, 16-bit, center based
PWM generation unit can be used to produce high accuracy
PWM signals with minimal processor overhead.
The ADSP-21990 also contains a flexible incremental encoder
interface unit for position sensor feedback; two adjustable
frequency auxiliary PWM outputs, 16 lines of digital I/O; a
16-bit watchdog timer; three general-purpose timers, and an
interrupt controller that manages all peripheral interrupts.
