Operation Modes
10-28 ADSP-214xx SHARC Processor Hardware Reference
When
LAFS is set (=1), late frame syncs are configured. In this mode, the
first bit of the transmit data word is available (and the first bit of the
receive data word is latched) in the same serial clock cycle that the frame
sync is asserted. In multichannel operation, this is the case when frame
delay is zero. Receive data bits are latched by serial clock edges, but the
frame sync signal is checked only during the first bit of each word. Inter-
nally-generated frame syncs remain asserted for the entire length of the
data word in late framing mode. Externally-generated frame syncs are only
checked during the first bit. They do not need to be asserted after that
time period.
Figure 10-5 illustrates the two modes of frame signal timing.
Left-Justified Mode
Left-justified mode is a mode where in each frame sync cycle two samples
of data are transmitted/received—one sample on the high segment of the
frame sync, the other on the low segment of the frame sync.
Companding is not supported in left-justified or I
2
S mode.
