Enhanced Synchronous Serial Interface (ESSI)

The ESSI provides a full-duplex serial port for serial communication with a variety of serial devices, including one or more industry-standard codecs, other DSPs, microprocessors, and peripherals. The ESSI consists of independent transmitter and receiver sections and a common ESSI clock generator. There are two independent and identical ESSIs in the DSP56301: ESSI0 and ESSI1. For simplicity, a single generic ESSI is described here. The ESSI block diagram is shown in Figure 7-1. This interface is synchronous because all serial transfers are synchronized to one clock.
