4. Control Registers

4.1. Serial Data Interface

To enhance the flexibility and function of the clock synthesizer, a two-signal serial interface is provided. Through

the Serial Data Interface, various device functions, such as individual clock output buffers are individually enabled

or disabled. The registers associated with the Serial Data Interface initialize to their default setting at power-up.

The use of this interface is optional. Clock device register changes are normally made at system initialization, if any

are required. The interface cannot be used during system operation for power management functions.

4.2. Data Protocol

The clock driver serial protocol accepts byte write, byte read, block write, and block read operations from the

controller. For block write/read operation, access the bytes in sequential order from lowest to highest (most

significant bit first) with the ability to stop after any complete byte is transferred. For byte write and byte read

operations, the system controller can access individually indexed bytes. The offset of the indexed byte is encoded

in the command code described in Table 1 on page 4.

The block write and block read protocol is outlined in Table 5 while Table 6 outlines byte write and byte read

protocol. The slave receiver address is 11010110 (D6h).
