The ISL5217 Quad Programmable UpConverter (QPUC) is a
QASK/FM modulator/FDM upconverter designed for high
dynamic range applications such as cellular basestations. The
QPUC combines shaping and interpolation filters, a complex
modulator, and timing and carrier NCOs into a single package.
Each QPUC can create four FDM channels. Multiple QPUCs can
be cascaded digitally to provide for up to 16 FDM channels in
multi-channel applications.
The ISL5217 supports both vector and FM modulation. In vector
modulation mode, the QPUC accepts 16-bit I and Q samples to
generate virtually any quadrature AM or PM modulation format.
The QPUC also has two FM modulation modes. In the FM with
pulse shaping mode, the 16-bit frequency samples are pulse
shaped/bandlimited prior to FM modulation. No band limiting filter
follows the FM modulator. This FM mode is useful for GMSK type
modulation formats. In the FM with band limiting filter mode, the
16-bit frequency samples directly drive the FM modulator. The
FM modulator output is filtered to limit the spectral occupancy.
This FM mode is useful for analog FM or FSK modulation
formats.
The QPUC includes an NCO driven interpolation filter, which
allows the input and output sample rate to have an integer
and/or variable relationship. This re-sampling feature
simplifies cascading modulators with sample rates that do not
have harmonic or integer frequency relationships.
The QPUC offers digital output spectral purity that exceeds
100dB at the maximum output sample rate of 104MSPS, for
input sample rates as high as 6.5MSPS.
A 16-bit microprocessor compatible interface is used to load
configuration and baseband data. A programmable FIFO depth
interrupt simplifies the interface to the I and Q input FIFOs.

Functional Description
The ISL5217 Quad Programmable UpConverter (QPUC)
converts digital baseband data into modulated or frequency
translated digital samples. The QPUC can be configured to
create any quadrature amplitude shift-keyed (QASK) data
modulated signal, including QPSK, BPSK, and m-ary QAM.
The QPUC can also be configured to create both shaped
and unfiltered FM signals. A minimum of 16 bits of resolution
is maintained throughout the internal processing.
The QPUC is configured via the microprocessor data bus,
using the A<6:0> address bus, P<15:0> data bus, RD
and CS
control signals. Configuration data that is loaded via
, WR
this bus includes the individual channel’s 48-bit Sample Rate
NCO center frequency, the 32-bit Carrier NCO center
frequency, the device modulation format, gain control, input
mode control, reset control and sync control. The I and Q
baseband channels each have a 256 tap FIR filter whose
coefficients and configuration are also programmed via the
µP interface. Similarly, the control signals for the I and Q
channel interpolation filters are programmed via the µP
interface. Discussion in the following sections utilizes the
register definitions for channel 0. Channels 1-3 are similarly
configured in accordance with the Table 10 Memory Map.
Data Input
The I/Q sample pairs can be input serially through 1 of 4
serial interfaces or in parallel through the µP addressable
registers as shown in Figure 1.
back 16-bit serial transfers can occur by setting control word
(0x17, bits 14:13) both high. The serial process begins with the
first serial clock after the start of a sample clock. The frame
strobe is asserted for one serial clock and starts the I and Q
time slot counters. The TXENX
pin or Main control (0X0c, bit 0)
S/W TX enable must be asserted to enable the frame strobe
out. Additional requests for serial data, with TXENX
deasserted, are controlled by bit 3 of control word 0x0c. The serial
interface may be programmed to be dependent or independent
of TXENX
control. The I and Q time slot counters, programmed
through 0x12, bits 9:0 and 0x13, bits 9:0, control the duration of
the serial to parallel conversion of the serial data input. The
counters are loaded to count the number of serial clocks from
the frame strobe to shift in the last data bit of that sample. The
time slot counters are 10-bits to allow multiple channels to
share a common serial data input. The MSB is always shifted
first, but the order of the I and Q serial data is flexible due to the
variability of the time slot counters. The received serial word is
MSB justified prior to loading into the FIFO holding register
based on the serial word length, programed through Serial
control (0x11, bits 3:2) to 4, 8, 12, or 16 bits.
Although each channel has control of a serial interface it may
select serial data from one of the other interfaces. Serial
control (0x11, bits 1:0) selects 1 of 4 serial data ports for the
channel. The serial data transfer format is shown in Figure 2.

Parallel
The parallel mode allows the µP to write the I and Q
samples directly to the FIFO holding registers. The parallel
input format is selected when Serial control (0x11, bit 15) is
low. The normal µP write order is the Q sample, Control
word 0x1, followed by the I sample, Control word 0x0.
Writing to Control word 0x0 generates the update strobe to
move the data from the FIFO holding register into the first
location of the I/Q FIFO. The first location of the I/Q FIFO is
available for read back. The µP can perform back-to-back
write accesses to Control words 0x1 and 0x0, but must
maintain four f
address. This limits the maximum µP write access rate for
an I/ Q sample pair to 104MHz/4 = 26MHz. The Read/Write
format for a parallel data transfer is shown in Figure 4
CLK

RD
periods between accesses to the same
CLK
The input source to the FIFO is selected by Serial control
(15). The FIFO pointer is incremented every time data is
written into the FIFO. The transferring of data into the FIFO
does not occur until both I and Q have been receiv ed when
the sample data is input in a serial fashion. When the
sample data is input in a parallel f ashion, the transferring of
data into the FIFO occurs when the µP writes to Control
Word 0 (I data).
While the input source determines the write rate, the
shaping filter determines the read rate. The maximum read
rate occurs when the shaping filter constraints for Data
Span (DS) and Interpolation Phases (IP) equal four. For a
clock rate of 104MHz, the maximum read rate is
determined by f
/(DS)(IP), which is 104MHz/16 =
CLK
6.5MHz. See the Shaping Filter Section for more details.
When the Shaping Filter requires another data sample, a
request is made to the FIFO for data and the FIFO pointer
is decremented. Figure 5 indicates the timing of a request
for data from the Shaping filter to the actual appearance of
data at the FIFO output. An “empty” FIFO detection causes
zero valued data to be entered into the shaping filter. The
FIFO can be forced to enter zero v al ued data by setting the
on-line mode to false. The on -line mode is enab led by Main
control (0xc, bit 6). A “full” FIFO detection prevents data
from being pushed out of the FIFO before the filter requests
it. Writing to a full FIFO is treated as an error condition that
will result in a soft reset of the channel to prevent
transmission of erroneous data over the air. The full FIFO
channel reset can be disabled by control word 0x0c, bit 1.
A programmable FIFO depth threshold sets when the
FIFORDY signal is asserted, alerting the data source that
more data is required. The FIFORDY signal assists the
data source in maintaining the desired FIFO data depth.
The data FIFO depth threshold for both I and Q inputs is set
by Main control (0xc, bits 10:8). The SAMPLE CLK may be
used instead of FIFORDY to indicate when data has been
transferred from the FIFO to the shaping filter. See the pin
description table for additional details and Figure 5 for the
input data latency.

Modulation Mode 00 - QASK
This modulation mode configures the QPUC as a BPSK,
QPSK, OQPSK, MSK or m-QAM modulator. The block
diagram is shown in Figure 7. The data FIFO outputs are
routed to the shaping filters. Here the samples are
interpolated by 4, 8, or 16 and shaped using a FIR filter with
up to a 256 taps. The filter impulse response can span 4-16
input samples. A half (input) sample delay can be inserted in
the I/Q path after the FIR and is enabled through Main
Control (0xc, bit 13). Th e 20- bit output of the shaping filter is
routed through a gain adjust multiplier controlled by 0x0a,
bits 11:0 and into the interpolation filter. The interpolation
filter interpolates by a factor set in the resampling NCO with
the Interpolation Phases controlled by 0xd, bits 1:0. The
output of the interpolation filter is at the master clock
frequency , CLK. The samples are then mixed with the carrier

This mode configures the QPUC as an FM modulator with

Figure 8. This mode provides for FSK and FM modulation
schemes. In this mode, the I input samples drive the
frequency control section of a quadrature NCO to produce a
zero IF FM signal. The 16-bit FM quadrature signals are then
routed to the shaping FIR filter and into the interpolation filter
for bandlimiting and interpolation up to the master clock rate.
The quadrature filtered FM signals are then upconverted to
the carrier frequency by the carrier NCO and mixers. The
output is then summed with the cascade input signal,
saturated (in the case of overflow), and f o rmatted for output.
Note that pulse shaping in this mode must be provided prior

In Mode 10, the amplitude out of the shaping filter needs to
be limited in order to prevent frequency excursions that

The FM modulator provides for frequency modulation of the

modulator is driven either directly by the QPUC I input (Mode
01) or by the output of the FIR shaping filter (Mode 10). The
input data to the FM Modulator, is defined as dφ(n)/dt, where
φ(nT) is the phase of a theoretical sinusoid described by:
sn() A (cos φ nT()]+ j sin φ nT()[]); A ≈ 1 in Modulator[=
The block diagram is shown in Figure 10. The input to the
FM modulator, dφ(n)/dt, is integrated via the NCO
accumulator. The NCO accumulator output represents
phase and is used to address a SIN/COS generator,
synthesizing a sinusoid of the form described in
Equation 1. The phase accumulator feedbac k of the NCO is

The shaping filter provides the necessary pulse shaping
required on the input data to implement various QASK and
shaped FM modulation formats. Two identical shaping filters
(one each for the I and Q paths) are provided. The shaping
filter architecture uses a NCO controlled interpol ating FIR,
capable of 4, 8, or 16 interpolation phases. The number of
interpolation phases, (IP) is loaded into FIR Control (0xd,
bits 1:0). The span of the impulse response of the polyphase
filter can vary from 4-16 data samples. The desired sample
Data Span, (DS) value minus one is loaded into FIR Control
(0xd, bits 7:4). Thus, the required number of coefficients (or
filter span) becomes:
# Coefficients = (DS)(IP)
The Interpolation Phase also determines the rate to compute
a polyphase output by selecting the appropriate timing from
the Sample Rate NCO to drive the shaping filter at 4x, 8x, or
16x the input sample rate. The Data Span selects the
number of samples to convolve. Each convolution requires
DS reference clocks for each phase of the filter. An output is
calculated (IP) times for each input sample. To allow
sufficient processing time for each output, the reference
clock must be as follows:
CLKDS()IP()f
()≥
S
Conversely, the input sample rate requires:
f
SfCLK
where f
[IP()⁄DS()]≤
is the frequency of the reference clock, IP is the
CLK
shaping filter interpolate rate; and DS is the number of data
samples in the filter span. For example, if f
CLK
the filter span is 16 samples, and the interpolation rate is 16,
then the maximum input sample rate, f
is 104/256 =
S
406.25kHz. Table 2 shows several examples of calculations
for FIR input sample rates based on master reference clock
rate, number of data samples, and interpolation rate. The
data exits the shaping filters at the interpolated rate.
The shaping filters have programmable coefficients which
must be loaded via the microprocessor interface. The QPUC
supports loading coefficients for two shaping filters, with FIR
Control (0xd, bit 8) selecting the active filter. The I and Q
shaping filters are identical and may be loaded
simultaneously or separately , allowing f or different gains and
responses through the filter if desired.

Because 16 interpolation phases are possible, the
coefficients are structured in sets of 16, one set for each
phase of the shaping filter. The convolution algorithm
sequentially steps through each of these phases, beginning
with phase 0. The coefficients for the shaping filters are
generated by designing the prototype filter at the
interpolated rate. The coefficients are then divided into
interpolation phases by taking every n
th
tap of the prototype
filter and storing the coefficient as an element of a coefficient
set. The IP value determines the addressing interval through
the prototype filter to create the coefficient sets for the filter
phases. The first coefficient set begins at address 0. The
next coefficient set begins at address 1 and continues in a
like manner for the remaining coefficient sets. For a 16 tap,
interpolate-by-4 filter, the calculations for filter 1 are:
Table 4 details the coefficient address allocation for the
previous example. The interpolation phase is on the left and
the data span is across the top. The coefficient RAM address
followed by the coefficient term is listed in the table’s cell.
Table 49 details the coefficient address locations through
The gain through the filter is:
A = (sum of coefficients) / interpolation rate.
The shaping filter contains saturation logic in the event that
the final output peaks over +/- 1.0. When using quadrature
modulation, saturation/overflow can occur when the input
values for I and Q exceed 0.707 peak. The shaping filter
coefficients may need to be reduced from full scale to
prevent saturation.
Gain Profile
The overall channel gain is controlled by both a gain profile
stage and a gain control stage, which provide identical scaling
for the I and Q upconverted data. The gain profile stage allows
transmit ramp-up and quench fading, to control the sidelobe
profile in burst mode. This is implemented through user control
of the rise and fall transitions utilizing a gain profile memory.
The gain profile memory is a 128 x 12 bit RAM which is loaded
with the desired scaling coefficients via indirect addressing of
memory spaces 0x000-0x07f. The pulse shaping is
implemented by linearly multiplying the programmed coefficient
by the shaping filter outputs at the f
The gain profile is enabled by FIR control (0xd, bit 15), with the
RAM address pointer being reset to zero on assertion of the
gain profile enable. Control of the pulse shaping is based on
TXENX
, as the TXENX rising edge causes the RAM pointer to
begin stepping through the profile until the RAM pointer
matches the Gain profile length programed into control word
(0x0b, bits 6:0). The falling edge of TXENX
process and the RAM pointer begins decrementing until it
reaches zero. The gain process is symmetric with respect to the
rising or falling edges of TXENX

bypasses all latency alignment circuitry and uses TXENX
input to the channel. Setting control word (0x0b, bit 7) remov es
two edge latencies from the delay path and should be
combined with selection of DS = 3, IP = 4 in order to have
perfect symmetry through the gain profile block. The memory
coefficients may be loaded without taking the channel off-line.
This is implemented by setting the gain profile hold bit in control
word (0x0c, bit 14) which holds the last gain value and provides
access to the memory.

Gain Control
The gain control is implemented through a scaling multiplier
followed by a scaling shift. The combination of the multiplier
and shifter provide the final output gain of the channel. Gain
adjustmen t can vary from -0.0026 to -144 dBFS.
Given a desired attenuation, the scaling multiplier value,

(2:0) can be determined by a table look-up. Refer to Table 6.
GAIN
The gain control is loaded into Control Word 0xa.
0xa, bits 14:12 = Gain

(11:0) can be calculated by the following equati o n.
The Sample Rate NCO provides the SAMPLE CLK and
sample clock phase information to the data input FIFO’s,
the shaping filters and the interpolation filters. The input
sample rate is set by the sample cloc k. The sample cl ock is
the MSB of the NCO accumulator and controls the
movement of sample data from the user to the shaping
filters. The coarse phase of the NCO accumulator controls
the processing of the shaping filter at 4x, 8x, or 16x the
sample clock rate. The fine phase of the NCO accumulator
controls the processing of the interpolation filter as it resamples the data from the shaping filter to the clock rate.
The block diagram is shown in Figure 11.
The sample frequency, SF, is set with 48-bit resolution. The
LSB is f
bits. Given a desired sample frequency, f
SF(47:0) can be calculated by the following equation.
SF (47:0) = INT [(f
The sample frequency, SF(47:0) is loaded 16 bits at a time
into Control Words 4, 5, and 6.
0x4, bits 15:0 = SF (47:32)
0x5, bits 15:0 = SF (31:16)
0x6, bits 15:0 = SF (15:0)
The output of the phase accumulator can be offset by phase
increments of 90 degrees without affecting the operation of
the phase accumulator. The desired offset increment is
loaded into FIR Control (0xd, bits 11:10).
Since it is not possible to represent all frequencies exactly
with an NCO, the phase accumulator length has been
extended to minimize the effect of phase error accumulation.
At an update rate of 1MHz, half an LSB of error in loading
the 48-bit accumulator is 1.8e-9. The accumulated phase
error after 1 year is 0.056 of a bit.
Leap Counter
In addition to lengthening the NCO accumulator, a 32-bit
counter is available for realizing fixed integer interpolation
rates. The carry-out of the fixed integer counter can be used
to clear the coarse and/or fine phase of the sample rate
NCO. The fixed integer counter also provides a precarry-out
that can be used to synchronize fixed integer counters in
other devices. The fixed integer counter is enabled by FIR
Control (0xd, bit 12).
In programming the FID to clear the NCO accumulator ,
consideration must be provided to ensure that FID is
programmed to clear the Error term only when the desired
error term should have been zero with an integer multiple of
the symbol rate. Selecting GSM as an example, the FID
should clear the NCO accumulator every third multiple of the
symbol rate or every 270833.333 * 3 sample clocks, as the
error term should only be zeroed during integer multiples of
/248. The internal accumulator resolution is 48

the symbol rate. This would clear the NCO accumulator
every 3 seconds or at a 1/3 Hz rate. The frequency of the
FID carryout can range from Fclk to Fclk/2^32. The value of
FID is determined from:
FID (31:0) = [(fclk / fco)]
Where fco is the desired frequency of the carryout, which in
the previous example is 1/3 Hz and the fclk is and integer
multiple of the sample frequency, say 65MHz. The resultant
value for the FID would be (65MHz/1/3Hz) or 195e6. The
programmed integer values for the FID are loaded 16 bits at
a time into Control Words 2 and 3.
0x2, bits 15:0 = FID (31:16)
0x3, bits 15:0 = FID (15:0)
Loading 195e6 into the FID would result in 0x2, being
0x0b9f, and 0x3 being 0x76c0.

Interpolation Filter
The shaped sample data is input to the interpolating filter at
the interpolation rate. The Interpolator filter resamples the
shaped I and Q data to establish the final output sample rate
of the channel. The output sample rate is always the clock
rate. The Interpolator uses the fine phase values from the
Symbol Rate NCO to compute the fine interpolated samples
at the clock rate. The number of interpolated samples is set
by the following ratio: n

Output Processing
Output processing sums the modulated output of each
channel to provide multi-carrier outputs. There are four
4-channel summers, which combined with the outputs IOUT,
QOUT, and bidire ctional outputs IIN and QIN can be
configured by the user to support eight output modes. The
output mode is determined by Device Control 0x78 bits 9:8
and Main Control 0xc, bit 7.
Output Modes
Cascade Mode: In this mode IIN<19:0> and QIN<19:0> are
configured as inputs for the real and imaginary cascade
inputs. This is the only mode where IIN and QIN are
configured as inputs.
The cascade input allows for more than four multi-channel
transmissions by summing the complex modulated signals
from other device’s with the four channel summer . A cascade
chain of four devices allows up to sixteen carriers. Each
device delays it’s 4-channel summation to align with the
cascade in from the previous device. Device Control 0x78
bits 2:1, Cascade delay <1:0>, identifies the position in the
cascade chain to select the appropriate delay. Device
Control 0x78, bit 3, Cascade input enable, zeroes the
cascade-in data when the port is not in use. The output of
the summation is saturated to prevent roll-over.
Real: Real data is output on IIN, QIN, IOUT, and QOUT.
Imag: Imaginary data is output on IIN, QIN, IOUT, and
QOUT.
Muxed I/Q: The output data alternates between real and
imaginary on clock time boundaries. The output signal
ISTRB is asserted when the output data is real. The ISTRB
is enabled by Device Control 0x78, bit 5. In this mode, the
I/Q samples are decimated by two. This is the only mode in
which the output data is decimated.
NOTE: When in Muxed I/Q mode the output order is I then
Q.
Muxed I/Q at 2x rate: The output data alternates between
real and imaginary within a clock time boundary. The output
data is real when the clock is high, and imaginary when the
clock is low. All I/Q samples are output, and there is no
decimation of the output stream. Care should be utilized to
ensure sufficient set-up time is achieved for the downstream
device in the application, as data is alternating I then Q
between clock boundaries.
Complex out 1: In this mode, complex data is output on IIN
and QIN, while real data is output on IOUT and QOUT.
Complex out 2: In this mode, real data is output on IIN and
QIN, while complex data is output on IOUT and QOUT.
Complex out 3: In this mode, complex data is output on IIN
and QIN and complex data is output on IOUT and QOUT.
When in the complex cascade mode the 4-channel summer
re 1 and im 1 are summed with the real and imaginary
cascade inputs. The cascade input allows for more than four
multi-channel transmissions by summing the complex
modulated signals from other device’s. A cascade chain of
four devices allows up to sixteen carriers. Figure 15
illustrates cascading multiple devices. Each device delays it’ s
4-channel summation to align with the cascade in from the
previous device. Device Control 0x78, bits 2:1 identifies the
position in the cascade chain. Device Control 0x78, bit 3
zeroes the cascade-in data when the port is not in use. The
output of the summation is saturated to prevent roll-over.

device clock, are readable and cleared by either a hard or
soft reset. The transfer of configuration data from the master
register to the slave register can occur synchronously after
an event or immediately after a four clock synchronization
period.
Indirect addressing is used to access the gain profile RAM,
the I coefficients RAM and the Q coefficients RAM. This type
of access relies on loading the RAM data into direct address
0x14 and the RAM address into direct address 0x15. After a
four clock synchronization period of the decoded address
0x15, the contents of the RAM data register is moved to the
address pointed to by the RAM address register. The µP can
perform back-to-back accesses to the RAM data register and
RAM address register, but must maintain four f
between accesses to the same address. This limits the
maximum µP access rate for the RAM to
104MHz/4 = 26MHz. The RAM address register defines a
16-bit address space that is partitioned into pages of 256
words by indirect address <9:8>. Indirect address<15>
determines the access type, 1 = read; 0 = write.
The address map and bit field details for the microprocessor
interface is shown in the Tables 10-47. The procedures for
reading and writing to this interface are provided below.

Channel Status
The present status of the channel is latched by the single
channel µP interface into the Status 0x16 register bits 11:0.
These bits represent the channel flushed, FIR and FIFO
overflow/underflow, FIFO read address, and FIFO almost and
empty flags. 0x16 bits 10:7 and bit 3 are or’ed and latched into
the Device Top Control 0x7e. The bits in 0x7e represent the
fault status of each channel and the saturation status of each
summer. The detection of a FIFO overflow puts the channel in
the off-line mode, unless disabled by assertion of 0x0c, bit 1.
The off-line function takes the channel off-line by forcing the
FIFO read address to ‘000’, which forces 0 data out of the FIFO.
The channel flushed status bit in control word 0x16, may be
monitored to find out when the zeroes have propagated through
the entire channel pipeline chain. The channel flushed status is
asserted 24 sample clocks after entering the off-line mode.
Once a channel fault is latched into the T op control 0x7e, 15:12
a write to this location is required to clear the faulted status.
Reset
There are two types of resets, a hard reset and a soft reset.
A hard reset can occur by asserting the input pin RESET
, or
by the µP issuing a reset command to the top control register
0x7F, bit 1. A hard reset affects the entire device, leaving the
QPUC in an idle state awaiting configuration. This type of
reset returns the master and slave registers to their default
values, clears the FIFO pointer, the NCO accumulators, the
RAM pointers, and zeroes the data RAM. The data RAM
locations are written with a zero value immediately after the
reset is deasserted.
A soft reset occurs by the µP issuing a reset command to the
channel’s immediate action control register 0xF, bit 1. A soft
reset is similar to the hard reset but does not clear the
master registers and its action is limited only to that channel.
A soft reset leaves the channel in an idle state, awaiting an
update to begin processing.
Update Control
There are several mechanisms for updating slave registers
from the master registers. If hardware UPDX
be used the following control bits should be programmed:
1. Main control register 0x0c bit 5 must be set to 1 to enable
hardware TXENX and UPDX.
2. Serial control register 0x11 bits 7:6 should be
programmed to configure which TXENX
respond to.
3. Serial control register 0x11 bits 5:4 should be
programmed to configure which UPDX a channel will
respond to.
4. Update Mask control register 0x0e bits 10:1 should be set
to configure which slave registers will be updated from
their corresponding master registers upon a nonimmediate channel update. Those registers with their
update mask bit set to 1 are enabled registers.
The 6 update mechanisms that are described below cause
the slave registers to be updated from the contents of the
corresponding master register.
1. Immediate Update - Set bit 15 of cword 0x0c to a 1 to
implement this mode. In immediate update mode, the
slave register is updated 4 CLKS after the master register
is written (update mask register is ignored).
2. Hardware Update - If the channel hardware update is
enabled, upon assertion of UPDX
registers are updated.
3. Software Update - Upon assertion of a channel software
update (bit 0 of control register 0x0f), the enabled slave
registers are updated.
4. External Hardware TXENX
hardware txEnable is enabled, upon assertion of TXENX
the enabled slave registers are updated.
5. Internal Hardware TXENX Assertion - If the internal
hardware txEnable function is enabled (bit 5 of cword
0x0c), upon assertion of the internal TXENX
by either type of dynamic channel update as described in
items 3 and 4 above), the enabled slave registers are
updated.

6. Software TXENX Assertion - Upon assertion of a channel
software TXENX (bit 0 of cword 0x0c), the enabled sla v e
registers are updated.
Starting Sequence
Channel processing begins when the slave register of the
sample frequency and the interpolation phase are updated
with a non-zero value. The sample rate NCO provides the
timing strobes that drive the channel processing logic.
The starting sequence can be applied to one channel,
multiple channels, and multiple devices.
When starting multiple channels through a software update,
a broadcast write, to an immediate action register in the
channel address space asserts an update strobe.
When starting multiple QPUCs through a software update, a
write to the top control immediate action register, 0x78, bit 15
asserts the SYNCO pin. The first chip acts as a master and
is tied to an UPDX
A delayed starting sequence of a channel can be realized by
taking advantage of the On line mode defined in Main control
(0xc, bit 6). The On line mode allows µP access to the
RAM’s and allows the NCO’s to operate normally but inhibits
processing by forcing the FIFO data to zero.
pin of the remaining chips.
not at specified levels. During the power-up and power-do wn
operations, differences in the starting point and ramp rates of
the two supplies may cause current to flow in the isolation
structures which, when prolonged and excessive, can
reduce the usable life of the device. In general, the most
preferred case would be to power-up or down the core and
I/O structures simultaneously. However, it is also safe to
power-up the core prior to the I/O block if simultaneous
application of the supplies is not possible. In this case, the
I/O voltage should be applied within 10 ms to 100 ms
nominally to preserve component reliability. Bringing the
core and I/O supplies to their respective regulation levels in a
maximum time frame of a 100 ms, moderates the stresses
placed on both the power supply and the ISL5217. When
powering down, simultaneous removal is preferred, but It is
also safe to remove the I/O supply prior to the core supply. If
the core power is removed first, the I/O supply should also
be removed within 10-100mS.

Self test is initiated by resetting the part and then loading a
given configuration register set, filter coefficient set, and gain
profile ramp. Control word 0x78, bit 14 should be set to 1 to
enter the self test mode. Upon assertion of a channel 0
update anded with updateMask bit 15, the device will begin
computing a signature which may then be read back from
control word 0x7d, bits <14:3>. Control word 0x7d, bit 15
reflects the validity (completion) of the test. This bit will be
cleared upon assertion of the 0x78, bit 14 test mode bit or
upon assertion of the channel 0 update and will be set to 1
upon completion of the test.

NOTES:
Coefficients RAM Read/Write Procedure (2’s complement format only)
Write access to the Coefficient RAMs when I equal Q:
1. Enable the µP hold mode by setting bit 12 of the Main Control register 0x0c.
2. Load the RAM data to location 0x14 with the coefficient.
3. Load the RAM write address to location 0x15. A write strobe transfers the contents of the register at location 0x14 into the RAM location
specified by the contents of the register at location 0x15. (Indirect address[15] =0, Indirect address[9:8]=”11”).
4. Wait 4 clock cycles before performing the next write to the RAM data register.
5. Repeat steps 2-4.
6. Return RAM control back to the channel by disabling the µP hold mode.
Read access to the Q Coefficient RAM:
1. Enable the µP hold mode by setting bit 12 of the Main Control register 0x0c.
2. Load the RAM read address to location 0x15. A read strobe transfers the contents of the RAM location specified by the contents of the register
at location 0x15 onto the read bus. (Indirect address[15] =1, Indirect address[9:8]=”11”).
3. Wait 4 clock cycles before performing the next write to the RAM address register.
4. After all data has been loaded, return RAM control back to the channel by disabling the µP hold mode.
NOTES:
FSRMode affects what is output on the channel FSRX
defined as:
00 No change to FSRX
01 No change to FSRX
10 FSR = internal channel UPDX.
11 FSR = internal channel TXENX. TXENX SIB control (0x0c, bit 3) must be set when FSRMode 11 is utilized, otherwise a TXENX glitch will be
observed on the rising edge of TXENX
To start the TXENX
(software or hardware). An update also resets all of the TXENX
Write access to the TXENX
1. Enable the µP hold mode by setting bit 12 of the Main Control register 0x0c.
2. Load the data to location 0x14.
3. Load the indirect write address to location 0x15. A write strobe transfers the contents of the register at location 0x14 into the location specified
by the contents of the register at location 0x15. (Indirect address[15] =0).
4. Assert the write strobe again to update the configuration register.
5. Wait 4 clock cycles before performing the next write to the data register.
6. Repeat steps 2-5.
7. Return control back to the channel by disabling the µP hold mode.
Read access to the TXENX
Care should be utilized to only read registers back immediately after writing since loading indirect addr 0x15 with 040X causes 0x040X to get
loaded with indirect register 0x14’s contents.
1. Enable the µP hold mode by setting bit 12 of the Main Control register 0x0c.
2. Load the read address to location 0x15. A read strobe transfers the contents of the RAM location specified by the contents of the register at
location 0x15 onto the read bus. (Indirect address[15] =1).
3. Wait 4 clock cycles before performing the next write to the address register.
4. Return control back to the channel by disabling the µP hold mode.

Microprocessor Interface Issue
A Chip Select (CS) operational issue has been identified and
isolated to the design of the pad input circuitry in the wr ite
(WR
) input cell. Under certain conditions, the combinational
logic contained in the pads allows an internal chip rising
edge write (WR
WR
pin is high and the CS pin is transitioned from the
inactive high state to the active low state. The combinational
logic contained in the pads is functionally shown in Figure
29.

DGNQ
If after a completed write cycle to the chip, the WR
asserted low while CS
is inactive high, as would happen if a
is again
write to another device on the bus occurs, the state of the
control logic in the chip is changed such that the next time
CS
is asserted low and WR is inactive high, as would
happen at the start of a chip read cycle, an internal
WR
_To_Core stro be will be generated and the chip register
corresponding to the state of the address bus at the time of
the falling edge of CS
will be inadvertently loaded with the
data present on the data bus P<15:0>.
Work Arounds
The recommended work around for the device is to place the
status register address (0x016) or any unused address on
the A<6:0>address bus prior to enabling the device with the
CS
line. The excess write will then either clear the device’s
status register or perform a “dummy” write to an unused
address space as the chip is enabled. Care should be
utilized when enabling the CS
remains on the bus until any CS
such that the dummy address
decoding bounces are
complete.
Alternatively, if system considerations allow, on read
operations the WR
prior to CS
being asserted active low per Figure 30. This
would be enveloping the CS
could be placed in the active low state
signal with the WR signal, thus
preventing the extra write from occurring on the falling edge
of CS
. Similarly during a write cycle, the WR could be pla ced
in the active low state prior to CS
being asserted active low
per Figure 31, with the write occurring on the rising edge of
WR
.
These work arounds will prevent the occurrence of an
uncontrolled write when CS
is asserted low and prevent the
alteration of operational register contents.
Future Revisions
Hardware solutions to correct this undesired write have been
reviewed, and the design may be modified to prevent this
occurrence in future versions of the devices. Any such
changes will be backwards compatible to the existing device ,
such that the recommended work-arounds will not affect the
operation of the device in existing designs.

JTAG Testing
The bi-directional type pins cannot be used as inputs in
EXTEST mode, however they do work in SAMPLE mode.
Work Arounds
The test vectors should be written such that the bi-directional
pins are used only as outputs, with the device on the other
end of the line used as the input. Alternatively, the test
vectors can be written such that SAMPLE mode is used
when treating the bi-directional pins as inputs.
