DIO/DMA interface

The DIO interface is asynchronous to allow easy adaptation to a range of microprocessor devices and computer

system interfaces.

NO. MIN MAX UNIT
1 tw(SCSL) Pulse duration, SCS low 24 ns
2 tw(SCSH) Pulse duration, SCS high 12 ns
3 tsu(SRNW) Setup time, SRNW low before SCS0 ns
4 tsu(SAD) Setup time, SAD1–SAD0 and SDMA valid before SCS0 ns
5 tsu(S DATA) Setup time, SDATA7–SDATA0 valid before SCS0 ns

NO. PARAMETER MIN MAX UNIT
6 tw(SRDYH) Pulse duration, SRDY high 12 ns
7 td(SRNW) Delay time, from SRDYto SRNW0ns
8 td(SAD) Delay time, from SRDYto SAD1–SAD0 and SDMA invalid 0 ns
9 td(SD ATA) Delay time, from SRDYto SDATA7–SDATA0 invalid 0 ns
10 td(SCS) Delay time, from SRDYto SCS0ns
11 td(SRDY)1 Delay time, from SCS to SRDY0ns
12 td(SRDY)2 Delay time, from SCS to SRDY0ns
13 td(SRDY)3 Delay time, from SCS to SRDY024 ns
When the switch is performing certain internal operations (e.g., EEPROM load), there may be a considerable delay (approximately 25–100 ms)
between SCS being asserted and SRDY being asserted.
