Disable Other Devices on the SPI Bus to Avoid Contention
The SPI bus signals are shared by other devices on the board. It is vital that other devices
are disabled when the FPGA communicates with the AMP or ADC to avoid bus
contention. Table10-4 provides the signals and logic values required to disable the other
devices. Although the StrataFlash PROM is a parallel device, its least-significant data bit is
shared with the SPI_MISO signal. The Platform Flash PROM is only potentially enabled if
the FPGA is set up for Master Serial mode configuration.
Connecting Analog Inputs
Connect AC signals to VINA or VINB via a DC blocking capacitor.
