By integrating a rich set of industry-leading system peripherals
and memory, Blackfin processors are the platform of choice fornext-generation applications that require RISC-like programmability, multimedia support, and leading-edge signal
processing in one integrated package.

Rev. B

Blackfin processors provide world-class power management
and performance. They are produced with a low power and low
voltage design methodology and feature on-chip dynamic
power management, which is the ability to vary both the voltage
and frequency of operation to significantly lower overall power
consumption. This capability can result in a substantial reduction in power consumption, compared with just varying thefrequency of operation. This allows longer battery life forportable appliances.

PORTABLE LOW POWER ARCHITECTURE

The ADSP-BF51x processors are highly integrated system-on-achip solutions for the next generation of embedded network
connected applications. By combining industry-standard interfaces with a high performance signal processing core, costeffective applications can be developed quickly, without theneed for costly external components. The system peripherals
include an IEEE-compliant 802.3 10/100 Ethernet MAC with
IEEE-1588 support (ADSP-BF518/ADSP-BF518F only), an RSI
controller, a TWI controller, two UART ports, two SPI ports,
two serial ports (SPORTs), nine general-purpose 32-bit timers(eight with PWM capability), 3-phase PWM for motor control,a real-time clock, a watchdog timer, and a parallel peripheral
interface (PPI).

BLACKFIN PROCESSOR COREAs shown in Figure 1, the Blackfin processor core contains two
16-bit multipliers, two 40-bit accumulators, two 40-bit ALUs,
four video ALUs, and a 40-bit shifter. The computation units
process 8-, 16-, or 32-bit data from the register file.
The compute register file contains eight 32-bit registers. Whenperforming compute operations on 16-bit operand data, theregister file operates as 16 independent 16-bit registers. All
operands for compute operations come from the multiported
register file and instruction constant fields.
Each MAC can perform a 16-bit by 16-bit multiply in eachcycle, accumulating the results into the 40-bit accumulators.
Signed and unsigned formats, rounding, and saturation
are supported.
The ALUs perform a traditional set of arithmetic and logicaloperations on 16-bit or 32-bit data. In addition, many special
instructions are included to accelerate various signal processing
tasks. These include bit operations such as field extract and population count, modulo 232 multiply, divide primitives, saturation
and rounding, and sign/exponent detection. The set of video
instructions include byte alignment and packing operations,16-bit and 8-bit adds with clipping, 8-bit average operations,and 8-bit subtract/absolute value/accumulate (SAA) operations.
The compare/select and vector search instructions are also
provided.

DATA ARITHMETIC UNIT

Figure 1. Blackfin Processor CoreFor certain instructions, two 16-bit ALU operations can be performed simultaneously on register pairs (a 16-bit high half and16-bit low half of a compute register). If the second ALU is used,
quad 16-bit operations are possible.
The 40-bit shifter can perform shifts and rotates and is used tosupport normalization, field extract, and field deposit
instructions.
The program sequencer controls the flow of instruction execution, including instruction alignment and decoding. For
program flow control, the sequencer supports PC relative andindirect conditional jumps (with static branch prediction), andsubroutine calls. Hardware is provided to support zero-overhead looping. The architecture is fully interlocked, meaning thatthe programmer need not manage the pipeline when executing
instructions with data dependencies.
The address arithmetic unit provides two addresses for simultaneous dual fetches from memory. It contains a multiported
register file consisting of four sets of 32-bit index, modify,
length, and base registers (for circular buffering), and eight
additional 32-bit pointer registers (for C-style indexed stack
manipulation).

Rev. B

Blackfin processors support a modified Harvard architecture in
combination with a hierarchical memory structure. Level 1 (L1)
memories are those that typically operate at the full processor
speed with little or no latency. At the L1 level, the instruction
memory holds instructions only. The two data memories holddata, and a dedicated scratchpad data memory stores stack andlocal variable information.
In addition, multiple L1 memory blocks are provided, offering a
configurable mix of SRAM and cache. The memory management unit (MMU) provides memory protection for individualtasks that may be operating on the core and can protect system
registers from unintended access.
The architecture provides three modes of operation: user mode,
supervisor mode, and emulation mode. User mode has
restricted access to certain system resources, thus providing aprotected software environment, while supervisor mode has
unrestricted access to the system and core resources.
The Blackfin processor instruction set has been optimized sothat 16-bit opcodes represent the most frequently used instructions, resulting in excellent compiled code density. Complex
DSP instructions are encoded into 32-bit opcodes, representing
fully featured multifunction instructions. Blackfin processors
support a limited multi-issue capability, where a 32-bit| Page 4 of 68 | January 2011

ADSP-BF512/BF512F, BF514/BF514F, BF516/BF516F, BF518/BF518F
The on-chip L1 memory system is the highest-performance
memory available to the Blackfin processor. The off-chip memory system, accessed through the external bus interface unit
(EBIU), provides expansion with SDRAM, flash memory, and
SRAM, optionally accessing up to 132M bytes ofphysical memory.

instruction can be issued in parallel with two 16-bit instructions, allowing the programmer to use many of the coreresources in a single instruction cycle.
The Blackfin processor assembly language uses an algebraic syntax for ease of coding and readability. The architecture has been
optimized for use in conjunction with the C/C++ compiler,
resulting in fast and efficient software implementations.

The memory DMA controller provides high bandwidth datamovement capability. It can perform block transfers of code ordata between the internal memory and the external
memory spaces.

MEMORY ARCHITECTURE
The ADSP-BF51x processors view memory as a single unified
4G byte address space, using 32-bit addresses. All resources,
including internal memory, external memory, and I/O control
registers, occupy separate sections of this common address
space. The memory portions of this address space are arranged
in a hierarchical structure to provide a good cost/performancebalance of some very fast, low-latency on-chip memory as cacheor SRAM, and larger, lower-cost and performance off-chip
memory systems. The memory map for both internal and external memory space is shown in Figure 2.

Internal (On-Chip) Memory
The ADSP-BF51x processors have three blocks of on-chip
memory that provide high bandwidth access to the core.
The first block is the L1 instruction memory, consisting of
48K bytes SRAM, of which 16K bytes can be configured as afour-way set-associative cache. This memory is accessed at fullprocessor speed.
The second on-chip memory block is the L1 data memory, consisting of up to two banks of up to 32K bytes each. Each memorybank is configurable, offering both cache and SRAM functionality. This memory block is accessed at full processor speed.

SCRATCHPAD SRAM (4K BYTES)The third memory block is a 4K byte scratchpad SRAM whichruns at the same speed as the L1 memories, but is only accessible
as data SRAM and cannot be configured as cache memory.

External (Off-Chip) Memory

INSTRUCTION BANK C SRAM/CACHE (16K BYTES)External memory is accessed via the EBIU. This 16-bit interface

Figure 2. ADSP-BF51x Internal/External Memory Map

Rev. BThe SDRAM controller can be programmed to interface to up
to 128M bytes of SDRAM. A separate row can be open for each
SDRAM internal bank, and the SDRAM controller supports up
to four internal SDRAM banks, improving overall performance.
The asynchronous memory controller can be programmed tocontrol up to four banks of devices with very flexible timing
parameters for a wide variety of devices. Each bank occupies a
1M byte segment regardless of the size of the devices used, sothat these banks are only contiguous if each is fully populatedwith 1M byte of memory.

Flash Memory
The ADSP-BF512F/ADSP-BF514F/ADSP-BF516F/
ADSP-BF518F processors contain a SPI flash memory within
the package of the processor and connected to SPI0.
The SPI flash memory has a 4M bit capacity and 1.8V (nominal)
operating voltage. The program/erase endurance is 100,000
cycles per block, and this memory has greater than 100 years ofdata retention capability. Also included are support for software
write protection and for fast erase and byte-program.

| Page 5 of 68 | January 2011

ADSP-BF512/BF512F, BF514/BF514F, BF516/BF516F, BF518/BF518F
The processors internally connect to the flash memory die with
the SPI0SCK, SPI0SEL4 or PH8, SPI0MOSI, and SPI0MISO signals similar to an external SPI flash. To further provide a secure
processing environment, these internally connected signals are
not exposed outside of the package. For this reason, programming the ADSP-BF51xF flash memory is performed by running
code on the processor andcannot be programmed from externalsignals. Data transfers between the SPI flash and the processor
cannot be probed externally. The flash memory has the following additional features• Serial Interface Architecture—SPI compatible with Mode 0
and Mode 3• Superior Reliability—Endurance of 100,000 cycles andgreater than 100 years data retention• Flexible Erase Capability—Uniform 4K Byte sectors anduniform 32 and 64K Byte overlay blocks• Fast Erase and Byte-Program—Chip-erase time = 125 ms(typical), Sector-/Block-Erase Time = 62 ms (typical) ByteProgram Time = 50 μS (typical)• Auto Address Increment (AAI) Programming—Decreases
total chip programming time over byte-program
operations• End-of-Write Detection—Software polling the BUSY bit instatus register, busy status readout on SO pin• Software Write Protection—Write protection throughblock-protection bits in status register

One-Time Programmable Memory
The processors have 64K bits of one-time programmable nonvolatile memory that can be programmed by the developer only
once. It includes the array and logic to support read access andprogramming. Additionally, its pages can be write protected.
The OTP memory allows both public and private data to be
stored on-chip. In addition to storing public and private key
data for applications requiring security, OTP allows developers
to store completely user-definable data such as customer ID,
product ID, and MAC address. Therefore, generic parts can besupplied which are then programmed and protected by thedeveloper within this non-volatile memory.

I/O Memory Space
The processors do not define a separate I/O space. All resources
are mapped through the flat 32-bit address space. On-chip I/O
devices have their control registers mapped into memorymapped registers (MMRs) at addresses near the top of the
4G byte address space. These are separated into two smaller
blocks, one which contains the control MMRs for all core functions, and the other which contains the registers needed for
setup and control of the on-chip peripherals outside of the core.
The MMRs are accessible only in supervisor mode and appear
as reserved space to on-chip peripherals.

Rev. B

Booting from ROM
The processors contain a small on-chip boot kernel, which configures the appropriate peripheral for booting. If the processors
are configured to boot from boot ROM memory space, the processor starts executing from the on-chip boot ROM. For more
information, see Booting Modes on Page 14.

EVENT HANDLINGThe event controller handles all asynchronous and synchronous
events to the processor. The processors provide event handlingthat supports both nesting and prioritization. Nesting allows
multiple event service routines to be active simultaneously.
Prioritization ensures that servicing of a higher priority event
takes precedence over servicing of a lower priority event. The
controller provides support for five different types of events:• Emulation—An emulation event causes the processor toenter emulation mode, allowing command and control ofthe processor through the JTAG interface.
• Reset—This event resets the processor.
• Nonmaskable Interrupt (NMI)—The NMI event can begenerated by the software watchdog timer or by the NMI
input signal to the processor. The NMI event is frequently
used as a power-down indicator to initiate an orderly shutdown of the system.
• Exceptions—Events that occur synchronously to program
flow; that is, the exception is taken before the instruction isallowed to complete. Conditions such as data alignment
violations and undefined instructions cause exceptions.
• Interrupts—Events that occur asynchronously to program
flow. They are caused by input signals, timers, and otherperipherals, as well as by an explicit software instruction.
Each event type has an associated register to hold the return
address and an associated return-from-event instruction. Whenan event is triggered, the state of the processor is saved on the
supervisor stack.
The event controller consists of two stages, the core event controller (CEC) and the system interrupt controller (SIC). The
core event controller works with the system interrupt controller
to prioritize and control all system events. Conceptually, interrupts from the peripherals enter into the SIC, and are thenrouted directly into the general-purpose interrupts of the CEC.

Core Event Controller (CEC)The CEC supports nine general-purpose interrupts (IVG15–7),
in addition to the dedicated interrupt and exception events. Of
these general-purpose interrupts, the two lowest priority
interrupts (IVG15–14) are recommended to be reserved forsoftware interrupt handlers, leaving seven prioritized interrupt
inputs to support the peripherals of the processors. The inputs
to the CEC, identifies their names in the event vector table(EVT), and lists their priorities are described in the
ADSP-BF51x Blackfin Processor Hardware Reference Manual“System Interrupts” chapter.

ADSP-BF512/BF512F, BF514/BF514F, BF516/BF516F, BF518/BF518F
System Interrupt Controller (SIC)
The system interrupt controller provides the mapping and routing of events from the many peripheral interrupt sources to theprioritized general-purpose interrupt inputs of the CEC.
Although the processors provide a default mapping, the user
can alter the mappings and priorities of interrupt events by
writing the appropriate values into the interrupt assignment
registers (SIC_IARx). See the ADSP-BF51x Blackfin Processor
Hardware Reference Manual “System Interrupts” chapter for the
inputs into the SIC and the default mappings into the CEC.
The SIC allows further control of event processing by providing
three pairs of 32-bit interrupt control and status registers. Eachregister contains a bit corresponding to each of the peripheral
interrupt events. For more information, see the ADSP-BF51x
Blackfin Processor Hardware Reference Manual “System Interrupts” chapter.

DMA CONTROLLERSThe ADSP-BF51x processors have multiple independent DMA
channels that support automated data transfers with minimal
overhead for the processor core. DMA transfers can occur
between the processor's internal memories and any of its DMAcapable peripherals. Additionally, DMA transfers can be accomplished between any of the DMA-capable peripherals andexternal devices connected to the external memory interfaces,
including the SDRAM controller and the asynchronous memory controller. DMA-capable peripherals include the Ethernet
MAC, RSI, SPORTs, SPIs, UARTs, and PPI. Each individual
DMA-capable peripheral has at least one dedicated DMA
channel.
The processors’ DMA controller supports both one-dimensional (1-D) and two-dimensional (2-D) DMA transfers. DMA
transfer initialization can be implemented from registers orfrom sets of parameters called descriptor blocks.
The 2-D DMA capability supports arbitrary row and column
sizes up to 64K elements by 64K elements, and arbitrary row
and column step sizes up to ±32K elements. Furthermore, thecolumn step size can be less than the row step size, allowing
implementation of interleaved data streams. This feature isespecially useful in video applications where data can be deinterleaved on the fly.
Examples of DMA types supported by the DMA controller
include:• A single, linear buffer that stops upon completion• A circular, auto-refreshing buffer that interrupts on eachfull or fractionally full buffer• 1-D or 2-D DMA using a linked list of descriptors• 2-D DMA using an array of descriptors, specifying only thebase DMA address within a common pageIn addition to the dedicated peripheral DMA channels, there are
two memory DMA channels that transfer data between the various memories of the processor system. This enables transfers ofblocks of data between any of the memories—including external
SDRAM, ROM, SRAM, and flash memory—with minimal pro-Rev. B

cessor intervention. Memory DMA transfers can be controlled
by a very flexible descriptor-based methodology or by a standard register-based autobuffer mechanism.
The processors also have an external DMA controller capability
via dual external DMA request signals when used in conjunction with the external bus interface unit (EBIU). Thisfunctionality can be used when a high speed interface isrequired for external FIFOs and high bandwidth communications peripherals. It allows control of the number of datatransfers for memory DMA. The number of transfers per edge is
programmable. This feature can be programmed to allow memory DMA to have an increased priority on the external bus
relative to the core.

PROCESSOR PERIPHERALSThe ADSP-BF51x processors contain a rich set of peripherals
connected to the core via several high bandwidth buses, providing flexibility in system configuration as well as excellent overallsystem performance (see Figure 1 on Page 4). The processors
contain dedicated network communication modules and highspeed serial and parallel ports, an interrupt controller for flexible management of interrupts from the on-chip peripherals or
external sources, and power management control functions totailor the performance and power characteristics of the processor and system to many application scenarios.
All of the peripherals, except for the general-purpose I/O, rotary
counter, TWI, three-phase PWM, real-time clock, and timers,
are supported by a flexible DMA structure. There are also separate memory DMA channels dedicated to data transfers
between the processor's various memory spaces, including
external SDRAM and asynchronous memory. Multiple on-chipbuses provide enough bandwidth to keep the processor corerunning along with activity on all of the on-chip and external
peripherals.

The real-time clock (RTC) provides a robust set of digital watch
features, including current time, stopwatch, and alarm. The
RTC is clocked by a 32.768 kHz crystal external to the processors. The RTC peripheral has a dedicated power supply so that it
can remain powered up and clocked even when the rest of theprocessor is in a low power state. The RTC provides several programmable interrupt options, including interrupt per second,
minute, hour, or day clock ticks, interrupt on programmablestopwatch countdown, or interrupt at a programmed alarmtime.
The 32.768 kHz input clock frequency is divided down to a 1 Hz
signal by a prescaler. The counter function of the timer consistsof four counters: a 60-second counter, a 60-minute counter, a24-hour counter, and an 32,768-day counter.
When enabled, the alarm function generates an interrupt when
the output of the timer matches the programmed value in thealarm control register. There are two alarms: The first alarm isfor a time of day. The second alarm is for a day and time ofthat day.

The stopwatch function counts down from a programmed
value, with one-second resolution. When the stopwatch isenabled and the counter underflows, an interrupt is generated.
Like the other peripherals, the RTC can wake up the processor
from sleep mode upon generation of any RTC wakeup event.
Additionally, an RTC wakeup event can wake up the processor
from deep sleep mode or cause a transition from the hibernate
state.
Connect RTC signals RTXI and RTXO with external components as shown in Figure 3.

The timer units can be used in conjunction with the two UARTs
to measure the width of the pulses in the data stream to providea software auto-baud detect function for the respective serial
channels.
The timers can generate interrupts to the processor core providing periodic events for synchronization, either to the system
clock or to a count of external signals.
In addition to the eight general-purpose programmable timers,a ninth timer is also provided. This extra timer is clocked by theinternal processor clock and is typically used as a system tickclock for generation of operating system periodic interrupts.

events. These timers can be synchronized to an external clock
input to the several other associated PF signals, an external
clock input to the PPI_CLK input signal, or to the internal

3-Phase PWM
The processors integrate a flexible and programmable 3-phase
PWM waveform generator that can be programmed to generate
the required switching patterns to drive a 3-phase voltage
source inverter for ac induction (ACIM) or permanent magnet
synchronous (PMSM) motor control. In addition, the PWM
block contains special functions that considerably simplify thegeneration of the required PWM switching patterns for controlof the electronically commutated motor (ECM) or brushless dc
motor (BDCM). Software can enable a special mode forswitched reluctance motors (SRM).

Features of the 3-phase PWM generation unit are:Watchdog Timer• 16-bit center-based PWM generation unit

The ADSP-BF51x processors include a 32-bit timer that can beused to implement a software watchdog function. A software
watchdog can improve system availability by forcing the processor to a known state through generation of a hardware reset,
nonmaskable interrupt (NMI), or general-purpose interrupt, if
the timer expires before being reset by software. The programmer initializes the count value of the timer, enables theappropriate interrupt, then enables the timer. Thereafter, thesoftware must reload the counter before it counts to zero fromthe programmed value. This protects the system from remaining in an unknown state where software, which would normally
reset the timer, has stopped running due to an external noise
condition or software error.

• Programmable PWM pulse width

If configured to generate a hardware reset, the watchdog timer
resets both the core and the processor peripherals. After a reset,
software can determine if the watchdog was the source of the
hardware reset by interrogating a status bit in the watchdog
timer control register.
The timer is clocked by the system clock (SCLK) at a maximum
frequency of fSCLK.

TimersThere are nine general-purpose programmable timer units in
the ADSP-BF51x processors. Eight timers have an external signal that can be configured either as a pulse width modulator(PWM) or timer output, as an input to clock the timer, or as aRev.

General-Purpose (GP) Counter
A 32-bit GP counter is provided that can sense 2-bit quadratureor binary codes as typically emitted by industrial drives or manual thumb wheels. The counter can also operate in generalpurpose up/down count modes. Then, count direction is either
controlled by a level-sensitive input signal or by two edge
detectors.

A third input can provide flexible zero marker support and canalternatively be used to input the push-button signal of thumbwheels. All three signals have a programmable debouncing
circuit.
An internal signal forwarded to the GP timer unit enables one
timer to measure the intervals between count events. Boundary
registers enable auto-zero operation or simple system warning
by interrupts when programmable count values are exceeded.

Serial Ports
The ADSP-BF51x processors incorporate two dual-channel synchronous serial ports (SPORT0 and SPORT1) for serial andmultiprocessor communications. The SPORTs support the following features:
Serial port data can be automatically transferred to and fromon-chip memory/external memory via dedicated DMA channels. Each of the serial ports can work in conjunction withanother serial port to provide TDM support. In this configuration, one SPORT provides two transmit signals while the other
SPORT provides the two receive signals. The frame sync andclock are shared.
Serial ports operate in five modes:• Standard DSP serial mode
• Multichannel (TDM) mode
• I2S mode

bit can be transferred to interrupt only addressed nodes in
multi-drop bus (MDB) systems. A frame is terminates by one,
one and a half, two or two and a half stop bits.
The UART ports support automatic hardware flow control
through the Clear To Send (CTS) input and Request To Send
(RTS) output with programmable assertion FIFO levels.
To help support the Local Interconnect Network (LIN) protocols, a special command causes the transmitter to queue a breakcommand of programmable bit length into the transmit buffer.
Similarly, the number of stop bits can be extended by a programmable inter-frame space.
The capabilities of the UARTs are further extended with support for the Infrared Data Association (IrDA®) serial infrared
physical layer link specification (SIR) protocol.

2-Wire Interface (TWI)
The processors include a TWI module for providing a simple
exchange method of control data between multiple devices. The
TWI is compatible with the widely used I2C® bus standard. The
TWI module offers the capabilities of simultaneous master andslave operation, support for both 7-bit addressing and multimedia data arbitration. The TWI interface utilizes two signals fortransferring clock (SCL) and data (SDA) and supports the protocol at speeds up to 400k bits/sec. The TWI interface signals
are compatible with 5 V logic levels.
Additionally, the processor’s TWI module is fully compatible
with serial camera control bus (SCCB) functionality for easiercontrol of various CMOS camera sensor devices.

• Packed I2S mode
• Left-justified mode

Removable Storage Interface (RSI)

Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Ports
The processors have two SPI-compatible ports (SPI0 and SPI1)
that enable the processor to communicate with multiple SPIcompatible devices.
The SPI interface uses three signals for transferring data: twodata signals (master output-slave input–MOSI, and master
input-slave output–MISO) and a clock signal (serial
clock–SCK). An SPI chip select input signal (SPIxSS) lets other
SPI devices select the processor, and multiple SPI chip selectoutput signals let the processor select other SPI devices. The SPI
select signals are reconfigured general-purpose I/O signals.
Using these signals, the SPI port provides a full-duplex, synchronous serial interface, which supports both master/slavemodes and multimaster environments.
The SPI port baud rate and clock phase/polarities are programmable, and it has an integrated DMA channel, configurable tosupport transmit or receive data streams. The SPI’s DMA channel can only service unidirectional accesses at any given time.

UART Ports
The processors provide two full-duplex universal asynchronousreceiver/transmitter (UART) ports, which are fully compatible
with PC-standard UARTs. Each UART port provides a simplified UART interface to other peripherals or hosts, supporting
full-duplex, DMA-supported, asynchronous transfers of serial
data. A UART port includes support for five to eight data bits,
and none, even, or odd parity. Optionally, an additional address

BThe RSI controller, available on the ADSP-BF514, ADSPBF516, ADSP-BF518, and ADSP-BF518F acts as the host interface for multi-media cards (MMC), secure digital memory cards(SD Card), secure digital input/output cards (SDIO), and CEATA hard disk drives. The following list describes the main features of the RSI controller.

10/100 Ethernet MAC
The ADSP-BF516/ADSP-BF516F and ADSPBF518/ADSPBF518F processors offer the capability to directly
connect to a network by way of an embedded fast Ethernet
media access controller (MAC) that supports both 10-BaseT(10M bits/sec) and 100-BaseT (100M bits/sec) operation. The
10/100 Ethernet MAC peripheral on the processor is fully compliant to the IEEE 802.3-2002 standard and it provides
programmable features designed to minimize supervision, bususe, or message processing by the rest of the processor system.
Some standard features are:• Support of MII and RMII protocols for external PHYs
• Full duplex and half duplex modes• Data framing and encapsulation: generation and detectionof preamble, length padding, and FCS• Programmable receive address filters, including a 64-bin
address hash table for multicast and/or unicast frames, andprogrammable filter modes for broadcast, multicast, unicast, control, and damaged frames• Advanced power management supporting unattended
transfer of receive and transmit frames and status to/fromexternal memory via DMA during low power sleep mode
• System wakeup from sleep operating mode upon magic
packet or any of four user-definable wakeup frame filters• Support for 802.3Q tagged VLAN frames• Programmable MDC clock rate and preamble suppression• In RMII operation, seven unused signals may be configured as GPIO signals for other purposesIEEE 1588 Support• Station management: generation of MDC/MDIO frames
for read-write access to PHY registers

The IEEE 1588 standard is a precision clock synchronization
protocol for networked measurement and control systems. The
ADSP-BF518/ADSP-BF518F processors include hardware support for IEEE 1588 with an integrated precision time protocol
synchronization engine (PTP_TSYNC). This engine provides
hardware assisted time stamping to improve the accuracy ofclock synchronization between PTP nodes. The main features of
the PTP_SYNC engine are:• Operating range for active and sleep operating modes, see
Table 43 on Page 45 and Table 44 on Page 46• Support for both IEEE 1588-2002 and IEEE 1588-2008 protocol standards• Internal loopback from transmit to receive• Hardware assisted time stamping capable of up to 12.5 ns
resolution• Media access management (in half-duplex operation): collision and contention handling, including control ofretransmission of collision frames and of back-off timing• Flow control (in full-duplex operation): generation anddetection of pause frames

Some advanced features are:• Buffered crystal output to external PHY for support of asingle crystal system• Lock adjustment• Programmable PTM message support• Automatic checksum computation of IP header and IP
payload fields of Rx frames• Dedicated interrupts• Independent 32-bit descriptor-driven receive and transmit
DMA channels• Multiple input clock sources (SCLK, MII clock, external

Rev. B• Programmable alarm• Auxiliary snapshot to time stamp external events

Ports
Because of the rich set of peripherals, the processors group themany peripheral signals to four ports—port F, port G, port H,
and port J. Most of the associated pins/balls are shared by multiple signals. The ports function as multiplexer controls.
General-Purpose I/O (GPIO)
The ADSP-BF51x processors have 40 bidirectional, generalpurpose I/O (GPIO) signals allocated across three separate
GPIO modules—PORTFIO, PORTGIO, and PORTHIO, associated with Port F, Port G, and Port H, respectively. Each
GPIO-capable signal shares functionality with other peripherals
via a multiplexing scheme; however, the GPIO functionality is
the default state of the device upon power-up. Neither GPIO
output nor input drivers are active by default. Each general-purpose port signal can be individually controlled by manipulationof the port control, status, and interrupt registers.

Parallel Peripheral Interface (PPI)

Code Security with Lockbox Secure Technology

The ADSP-BF51x processors provide a parallel peripheral interface (PPI) that can connect directly to parallel analog-to-digitaland digital-to-analog converters, ITU-R-601/656 video encoders and decoders, and other general-purpose peripherals. The
PPI consists of a dedicated input clock signal, up to three frame
synchronization signals, and up to 16 data signals.

A security system consisting of a blend of hardware and software provides customers with a flexible and rich set of code
security features with Lockbox® secure technology. Key features
include:In ITU-R-656 modes, the PPI receives and parses a data streamof 8-bit or 10-bit data elements. On-chip decode of embedded
preamble control and synchronization information
is supported.
Three distinct ITU-R-656 modes are supported:• Active video only mode—The PPI does not read in any
data between the End of Active Video (EAV) and Start of
Active Video (SAV) preamble symbols, or any data present
during the vertical blanking intervals. In this mode, thecontrol byte sequences are not stored to memory; they arefiltered by the PPI.
• Vertical blanking only mode—The PPI only transfers vertical blanking interval (VBI) data, as well as horizontal
blanking information and control byte sequences on
VBI lines.
• Entire field mode—The entire incoming bitstream is readin through the PPI. This includes active video, control preamble sequences, and ancillary data that may be embedded
in horizontal and vertical blanking intervals.
Though not explicitly supported, ITU-R-656 output functionality can be achieved by setting up the entire frame structure(including active video, blanking, and control information) inmemory and streaming the data out the PPI in a frame sync-lessmode. The processor’s 2-D DMA features facilitate this transfer
by allowing the static frame buffer (blanking and control codes)
to be placed in memory once, and simply updating the active
video information on a per-frame basis.
The general-purpose modes of the PPI are intended to suit awide variety of data capture and transmission applications. The
modes are divided into four main categories, each allowing up
to 16 bits of data transfer per PPI_CLK cycle:• Data receive with internally generated frame syncs• Data receive with externally generated frame syncs• Data transmit with internally generated frame syncs• Data transmit with externally generated frame syncs
These modes support ADC/DAC connections, as well as videocommunication with hardware signalling. Many of the modes
support more than one level of frame synchronization. If
desired, a programmable delay can be inserted between assertion of a frame sync and reception/transmission of data.

The security scheme is based upon the concept of authentication of digital signatures using standards-based algorithms andprovides a secure processing environment in which to executecode and protect assets.

DYNAMIC POWER MANAGEMENT
The ADSP-BF51x processors provide four operating modes,
each with a different performance/power profile. In addition,
dynamic power management provides the control functions todynamically alter the processor core supply voltage, further
reducing power dissipation. When configured for a 0 V coresupply voltage, the processor enters the hibernate state. Control
of clocking to each of the processor peripherals also reduces
power consumption. See Table 2 for a summary of the power
settings for each mode.

Full-On Operating Mode—Maximum Performance
In the full-on mode, the PLL is enabled and is not bypassed,
providing capability for maximum operational frequency. Thisis the power-up default execution state in which maximum performance can be achieved. The processor core and all enabled
peripherals run at full speed.

Active Operating Mode—Moderate Power Savings
In the active mode, the PLL is enabled but bypassed. Because the
PLL is bypassed, the processor’s core clock (CCLK) and system
clock (SCLK) run at the input clock (CLKIN) frequency. In thismode, the CLKIN to CCLK multiplier ratio can be changed,
although the changes are not realized until the full-on mode isentered. DMA access is available to appropriately configured
L1 memories.

ADSP-BF512/BF512F, BF514/BF514F, BF516/BF516F, BF518/BF518F
In the active mode, it is possible to disable the PLL through the
PLL control register (PLL_CTL). If disabled, the PLL must be
re-enabled before transitioning to the full-on or sleep modes.

Sleep Operating Mode—High Dynamic Power Savings
The sleep mode reduces dynamic power dissipation by disabling
the clock to the processor core (CCLK). The PLL and system
clock (SCLK), however, continue to operate in this mode. Typically an external event or RTC activity wakes up the processor.
When in the sleep mode, asserting wakeup causes the processor
to sense the value of the BYPASS bit in the PLL control register(PLL_CTL). If BYPASS is disabled, the processor transitions to
the full on mode. If BYPASS is enabled, the processor transitions to the active mode.
System DMA access to L1 memory is not supported insleep mode.

Deep Sleep Operating Mode—Maximum Dynamic Power
Savings
The deep sleep mode maximizes dynamic power savings by disabling the clocks to the processor core (CCLK) and to allsynchronous peripherals (SCLK). Asynchronous peripherals,
such as the RTC, may still be running but cannot access internal
resources or external memory. This powered-down mode canonly be exited by assertion of the reset interrupt (RESET) or by
an asynchronous interrupt generated by the RTC. When in deep
sleep mode, an RTC asynchronous interrupt causes the processor to transition to the Active mode. Assertion of RESET while
in deep sleep mode causes the processor to transition to the fullon mode.

Hibernate State—Maximum Static Power Savings
The hibernate state maximizes static power savings by disabling
the voltage and clocks to the processor core (CCLK) and system
blocks (SCLK). Any critical information stored internally (forexample memory contents, register contents) must be written toa non-volatile storage device prior to removing power if theprocessor state is to be preserved. Writing b#00 to the FREQ bitsin the VR_CTL register also causes the EXT_WAKE signal totransition low, which can be used to signal an external voltage
regulator to shut down.
Since VDDEXT is still supplied in this mode, all of the external signals three-state, unless otherwise specified. This allows otherdevices that may be connected to the processor to still havepower applied without drawing unwanted current.
The Ethernet module can signal an external regulator to wakeup using the EXT_WAKE signal. If PF15 does not connect as a
PHYINT signal to an external PHY device, it can be pulled low
by any other device to wake the processor up. The processor canalso be woken up by a real-time clock wakeup event or by asserting the RESET pin. All hibernate wakeup events initiate thehardware reset sequence. Individual sources are enabled by the
VR_CTL register. The EXT_WAKE signal is provided to indicate the occurrence of wakeup events.
With the exception of the VR_CTL and the RTC registers, allinternal registers and memories lose their content in the hibernate state. State variables may be held in external SRAM or
Rev. BSDRAM. The SCKELOW bit in the VR_CTL register controls
whether or not SDRAM operates in self-refresh mode, whichallows it to retain its content while the processor is in hibernation and through the subsequent reset sequence.

Power Savings
As shown in Table 3, the processors support up to six different
power domains, which maximizes flexibility while maintaining
compliance with industry standards and conventions. By isolating the internal logic of the processor into its own power
domain, separate from the RTC and other I/O, the processor
can take advantage of dynamic power management without
affecting the RTC or other I/O devices. There are no sequencing
requirements for the various power domains, but all domains
must be powered according to the appropriate Specifications
table for processor Operating Conditions; even if the feature/peripheral is not used.

VDDEXTThe dynamic power management feature of the processor
allows both the processor’s input voltage (VDDINT) and clock frequency (fCCLK) to be dynamically controlled.
The power dissipated by a processor is largely a function of its
clock frequency and the square of the operating voltage. For
example, reducing the clock frequency by 25% results in a 25%
reduction in dynamic power dissipation, while reducing thevoltage by 25% reduces dynamic power dissipation by morethan 40%. Further, these power savings are additive, in that if
the clock frequency and supply voltage are both reduced, thepower savings can be dramatic, as shown in the following
equations.

VOLTAGE REGULATION INTERFACETO PLL CIRCUITRY

The ADSP-BF51x processors require an external voltage regulator to power the VDDINT domain. To reduce standby power
consumption in the hibernate state, the external voltage regulator can be signaled through EXT_WAKE to remove power fromthe processor core. The EXT_WAKE signal is high-true forpower-up and may be connected directly to the low-true shut
down input of many common regulators.
The Power Good (PG) input signal allows the processor to start
only after the internal voltage has reached a chosen level. In thisway, the startup time of the external regulator is detected after
hibernation. For a complete description of the PG functionality,refer to the ADSP-BF51x Blackfin Processor Hardware Reference.

CLOCK SIGNALS
The ADSP-BF51x processors can be clocked by an external crystal, a sine wave input, or a buffered, shaped clock derived froman external clock oscillator.
If an external clock is used, it should be a TTL compatible signal
and must not be halted, changed, or operated below the specified frequency during normal operation. This signal isconnected to the processor CLKIN signal. When an external
clock is used, the XTAL pin/ball must be left unconnected.
Alternatively, because the processor includes an on-chip oscillator circuit, an external crystal may be used. For fundamental
frequency operation, use the circuit shown in Figure 4. A parallel-resonant, fundamental frequency, microprocessor-grade
crystal is connected across the CLKIN and XTAL pins/balls. The
on-chip resistance between the CLKIN pin/ball and the XTAL
pin/ball is in the 500 kΩ range. Further parallel resistors are typically not recommended. The two capacitors and the series
resistor shown in Figure 4 fine tune phase and amplitude of thesine frequency.
The capacitor and resistor values shown in Figure 4 are typicalvalues only. The capacitor values are dependent upon the crystal
manufacturers’ load capacitance recommendations and the PCB
physical layout. The resistor value depends on the drive levelspecified by the crystal manufacturer. The user should verify thecustomized values based on careful investigations on multiple
devices over temperature range.
A third-overtone crystal can be used for frequencies above 25
MHz. The circuit is then modified to ensure crystal operation
only at the third overtone, by adding a tuned inductor circuit asshown in Figure 4. A design procedure for third-overtone operation is discussed in detail in application note (EE-168) Using

25 MHz or 50 MHz crystal may be applied directly to the processor. The 25 MHz or 50 MHz output of CLKBUF can then beconnected to an external Ethernet MII or RMII PHY device.
The Blackfin core runs at a different clock rate than the on-chip
peripherals. As shown in Figure 5, the core clock (CCLK) andsystem peripheral clock (SCLK) are derived from the input
clock (CLKIN) signal. An on-chip PLL is capable of multiplying
the CLKIN signal by a programmable 5× to 64× multiplication
factor (bounded by specified minimum and maximum VCO
frequencies). The default multiplier is 6×, but it can be modified
by a software instruction sequence.
On-the-fly frequency changes can be done simply by writing to
the PLL_DIV register. The maximum allowed CCLK and SCLK
rates depend on the applied voltages VDDINT, VDDEXT, and
VDDMEM, and the VCO is always permitted to run up to the frequency specified by the part’s speed grade. The CLKOUT signal
reflects the SCLK frequency to the off-chip world. It belongs to
the SDRAM interface, but it functions as a reference signal inother timing specifications as well. While active by default, it
can be disabled using the EBIU_SDGCTL and EBIU_AMGCTL
registers.

All on-chip peripherals are clocked by the system clock (SCLK).
The system clock frequency is programmable by means of the
SSEL3–0 bits of the PLL_DIV register. The values programmed
into the SSEL fields define a divide ratio between the PLL output(VCO) and the system clock. SCLK divider values are 1 through15. Table 4 illustrates typical system clock ratios.
Note that the divisor ratio must be chosen to limit the system
clock frequency to its maximum of fSCLK. The SSEL value can bechanged dynamically without any PLL lock latencies by writing
the appropriate values to the PLL divisor register (PLL_DIV).
The core clock (CCLK) frequency can also be dynamicallychanged by means of the CSEL1–0 bits of the PLL_DIV register.
Supported CCLK divider ratios are 1, 2, 4, and 8, as shown in
Table 5. This programmable core clock capability is useful forfast core frequency modifications.

• Idle/no boot mode (BMODE = 0x0)—In this mode, theprocessor goes into idle. The idle boot mode helps recoverfrom illegal operating modes, such as when the user has
mis configured the OTP memory.
• Boot from 8-bit or 16-bit external flash memory(BMODE = 0x1)—In this mode, the boot kernel loads thefirst block header from address 0x2000 0000 and—depending on instructions containing in the header—the bootkernel performs 8-bit or 16-bit boot or starts program execution at the address provided by the header. By default, allconfiguration settings are set for the slowest device possible(3-cycle hold time, 15-cycle R/W access times, 4-cycle
setup).
The ARDY is not enabled by default, but it can be enabled
by OTP programming. Similarly, all interface behavior andtimings can be customized by OTP programming. This
includes activation of burst-mode or page-mode operation.
In this mode, all signals belonging to the asynchronousinterface are enabled at the port muxing level.

The maximum CCLK frequency not only depends on the part's
speed grade (see Page 65), it also depends on the applied VDDINT
voltage. See Table 9 for details. The maximal system clock rate
(SCLK) depends on the chip package and the applied VDDINT,VDDEXT, and VDDMEM voltages (see Table 11 on Page 21).

• Boot from internal SPI memory (BMODE = 0x2)—The
processor uses the internal PH8 GPIO signal to load codepreviously loaded to the 4 Mbit internal SPI flash connected to SPI0. Only available on the ADSP-BF512F/
ADSP-BF514F/ADSP-BF516F/ADSP-BF518F.

BOOTING MODES• Boot from external SPI EEPROM or flash(BMODE = 0x3)—8-bit, 16-bit, 24-bit or 32-bit addressable devices are supported. The processor uses the PG15
GPIO signal (at SPI0SEL2) to select a single SPI
EEPROM/flash device connected to the SPI0 interface;then submits a read command and successive address bytes(0x00) until a valid 8-, 16-, 24-, or 32-bit addressable device
is detected. Pull-up resistors are required on the SSEL andMISO signals. By default, a value of 0x85 is written to the
SPI0_BAUD register.

The processor has several mechanisms (listed in Table 6) for
automatically loading internal and external memory after areset. The boot mode is defined by three BMODE input bits
dedicated to this purpose. There are two categories of bootmodes. In master boot modes the processor actively loads datafrom parallel or serial memories. In slave boot modes the processor receives data from external host devices.
The boot modes listed in Table 6 provide a number of mechanisms for automatically loading the processor’s internal andexternal memories after a reset. By default, all boot modes use
the slowest meaningful configuration settings. Default settings
can be altered via the initialization code feature at boot time orby proper OTP programming at pre-boot time. The BMODE

Rev. B• Boot from SPI0 host device (BMODE = 0x4)—The processor operates in SPI slave mode and is configured to receive
the bytes of the LDR file from an SPI host (master) agent.
In the host, the HWAIT signal must be interrogated by the| Page 14 of 68 | January 2011

ADSP-BF512/BF512F, BF514/BF514F, BF516/BF516F, BF518/BF518F
host before every transmitted byte. A pull-up resistor isrequired on the SPI0SS input. A pull-down on the serial
clock may improve signal quality and booting robustness.
• Boot from OTP memory (BMODE = 0x5)—This provides
a stand-alone booting method. The boot stream is loaded
from on-chip OTP memory. By default the boot stream is
expected to start from OTP page 0x40 on and can occupy
all public OTP memory up to page 0xDF. This is 2560
bytes. Since the start page is programmable the maximum
size of the boot stream can be extended to 3072 bytes.
• Boot from SDRAM (BMODE = 0x6)—This is a warm bootscenario, where the boot kernel starts booting from address
0x0000 0010. The SDRAM is expected to contain a valid
boot stream and the SDRAM controller must be configuredby the OTP settings.
• Boot from UART0 host (BMODE = 0x7)—Using an autobaud handshake sequence, a boot-stream formatted
program is downloaded by the host. The host selects a bit
rate within the UART clocking capabilities.
When performing the autobaud, the UART expects a “@”(0x40) character (eight bits data, one start bit, one stop bit,no parity bit) on the RX0 signal to determine the bit rate.
The UART then replies with an acknowledgement composed of 4 bytes (0xBF—the value of UART0_DLL and
0x00—the value of UART0_DLH). The host can thendownload the boot stream. To hold off the host the Blackfin
processor signals the host with the boot host wait
(HWAIT) signal. Therefore, the host must monitor
HWAIT before every transmitted byte.
For each of the boot modes, a 16-byte header is first read froman external memory device. The header specifies the number ofbytes to be transferred and the memory destination address.
Multiple memory blocks may be loaded by any boot sequence.
Once all blocks are loaded, program execution commences fromthe address stored in the EVT1 register.
Prior to booting, the pre-boot routine interrogates the OTP
memory. Individual boot modes can be customized or even disabled based on OTP programming. External hardware,
especially booting hosts may watch the HWAIT signal to determine when the pre-boot has finished and the boot kernel starts
the boot process. By programming OTP memory, the user can
instruct the preboot routine to also customize the PLL, theSDRAM Controller, and the Asynchronous Interface.
The boot kernel differentiates between a regular hardware reset
and a wakeup-from-hibernate event to speed up booting in thelater case. Bits 6-4 in the system reset configuration (SYSCR)
register can be used to bypass pre-boot routine and/or boot kernel in case of a software reset. They can also be used to simulate
a wakeup-from-hibernate boot in the software reset case.
The boot process can be further customized by “initialization
code.” This is a piece of code that is loaded and executed prior to
the regular application boot. Typically, this is used to configure
the SDRAM controller or to speed up booting by managing
PLL, clock frequencies, wait states, or serial bit rates.

Rev. BThe boot ROM also features C-callable function entries that canbe called by the user application at run time. This enables second-stage boot or boot management schemes to be
implemented with ease.

INSTRUCTION SET DESCRIPTION
The Blackfin processor family assembly language instruction set
employs an algebraic syntax designed for ease of coding andreadability. The instructions have been specifically tuned to provide a flexible, densely encoded instruction set that compiles toa very small final memory size. The instruction set also provides
fully featured multifunction instructions that allow the programmer to use many of the processor core resources in a single
instruction. Coupled with many features more often seen on
microcontrollers, this instruction set is very efficient when compiling C and C++ source code. In addition, the architecture
supports both user (algorithm/application code) and supervisor(O/S kernel, device drivers, debuggers, ISRs) modes of operation, allowing multiple levels of access to core
processor resources.
The assembly language, which takes advantage of the processor’s unique architecture, offers the following advantages:• Seamlessly integrated DSP/MCU features are optimized forboth 8-bit and 16-bit operations.
• A multi-issue load/store modified-harvard architecture,
which supports two 16-bit MACs or four 8-bit ALUs plus
two load/store plus two pointer updates per cycle.
• All registers, I/O, and memory are mapped into a unified
4G byte memory space, providing a simplified programming model.
• Microcontroller features, such as arbitrary bit and bit-fieldmanipulation, insertion, and extraction; integer operations
on 8-, 16-, and 32-bit data-types; and separate user andsupervisor stack pointers.
• Code density enhancements, which include intermixing of
16-bit and 32-bit instructions (no mode switching, no code
segregation). Frequently used instructions are encodedin 16 bits.

DEVELOPMENT TOOLSThe ADSP-BF51x processors are supported with a complete setof CROSSCORE® software and hardware development tools,

DESIGNING AN EMULATOR-COMPATIBLE
PROCESSOR BOARD (TARGET)The Application Signal Chains page in the Circuits from the
LabTM site (http://www.analog.com/circuits) provides:

The Analog Devices family of emulators are tools that every system developer needs in order to test and debug hardware andsoftware systems. Analog Devices has supplied an IEEE 1149.1
JTAG Test Access Port (TAP) on each JTAG processor. The
emulator uses the TAP to access the internal features of the processor, allowing the developer to load code, set breakpoints,
observe variables, observe memory, and examine registers. The
processor must be halted to send data and commands, but once
an operation has been completed by the emulator, the processor
system is set running at full speed with no impact on
system timing.
To use these emulators, the target board must include a header
that connects the processor’s JTAG port to the emulator.
For details on target board design issues including mechanicallayout, single processor connections, multiprocessor scanchains, signal buffering, signal termination, and emulator pod
logic, see (EE-68) Analog Devices JTAG Emulation Technical
Reference on the Analog Devices website (www.analog.com)—
use site search on “EE-68.” This document is updated regularly
to keep pace with improvements to emulator support.

SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
The processors’ signal definitions are listed in Table 7. In orderto maintain maximum function and reduce package size andsignal count, some signals have dual, multiplexed functions. In
cases where signal function is reconfigurable, the default state isshown in plain text, while the alternate function is shown initalics.
All pins are three-stated during and immediately after reset,with the exception of the external memory interface, asynchronous and synchronous memory control, and the buffered XTAL
output pin (CLKBUF). On the external memory interface, thecontrol and address lines are driven high, with the exception of
CLKOUT, which toggles at the system clock rate. During hibernate all outputs are three-stated unless otherwise noted inTable 7.
All I/O signals have their input buffers disabled with the exception of the signals noted in the data sheet that need pull-ups orpull downs if unused.

The SDA (serial data) and SCL (serial clock) pins/balls are open
drain and therefore require a pullup resistor. Consult version
2.1 of the I2C specification for the proper resistor value.
It is strongly advised to use the available IBIS models to ensurethat a given board design meets overshoot/undershoot and signal integrity requirements. If no IBIS simulation is performed, it
is strongly recommended to add series resistor terminations for
all Driver Types A, C and D. The termination resistors shouldbe placed near the processor to reduce transients and improvesignal integrity. The resistance value, typically 33 Ω or 47 Ω,should be chosen to match the average board trace impedance.
Additionally, adding a parallel termination to CLKOUT may
prove useful in further enhancing signal integrity. Be sure toverify overshoot/undershoot and signal integrity specifications
on actual hardware.

The ASF is combined with the CCLK Frequency and VDDINT
dependent data in Table 14 to calculate this part. The second
part is due to transistor switching in the system clock (SCLK)
domain, which is included in the IDDINT specification equation.

Total Power Dissipation
Total power dissipation has two components:
1. Static, including leakage current
2. Dynamic, due to transistor switching characteristics
Many operating conditions can also affect power dissipation,
including temperature, voltage, operating frequency, and processor activity. Electrical Characteristics on Page 22 shows thecurrent dissipation for internal circuitry (VDDINT). IDDDEEPSLEEP
specifies static power dissipation as a function of voltage(VDDINT) and temperature (see Table 13), and IDDINT specifies thetotal power specification for the listed test conditions, including
the dynamic component as a function of voltage (VDDINT) andfrequency (Table 14).
There are two parts to the dynamic component. The first part isdue to transistor switching in the core clock (CCLK) domain.
This part is subject to an Activity Scaling Factor (ASF) which
represents application code running on the processor core andL1 memories (Table 12).

Table 20 and Table 21 specify the maximum total source/sink(IOH/IOL) current for a group of pins. Permanent damage canoccur if this value is exceeded. To understand this specification,
if pins PF9, PF8, PF7, PF6, and PF5 from Group 1 in Table 21
table were sourcing or sinking 2 mA each, the total current for
those pins would be 10 mA. This would allow up to 70 mA totalthat could be sourced or sunk by the remaining pins in thegroup without damaging the device. Note that the VOH and VOL
specifications have separate per-pin maximum current requirements as shown in the Electrical Characteristics table.

When programming OTP memory on the ADSP-BF51x processor, the VPPOTP pin/ball must be set to the write value specified in
the Operating Conditions on Page 20. There is a finite amountof cumulative time that the write voltage may be applied(dependent on voltage and junction temperature) to VPPOTP overthe lifetime of the part. Therefore, maximum OTP memory programming time for the processor is shown in Table 19.

Driving the RESET pin low resets the Flash device. Driving the
RESET pin high puts the device in normal operating mode. The
SO pin is in high impedance state while the device is in reset. A
successful reset will reset the status register to its power-up state.
See Table 25 for default power-up modes. A device reset during

an active Program or Erase operation aborts the operation anddata of the targeted address range may be corrupted or lost due
to the aborted erase or program operation. The device exits AAI

Output signals are considered to be enabled when they havemade a transition from a high impedance state to the point
when they start driving.
The output enable time tENA is the interval from the point whena reference signal reaches a high or low voltage level to the point
when the output starts driving as shown on the right side of

The time tENA_MEASURED is the interval from when the reference
signal switches to when the output voltage reaches VTRIP(high)or VTRIP(low). For VDDEXT (nominal) = 1.8 V, VTRIP (high) is
0.95 V, and VTRIP (low) is 0.85 V. For VDDEXT (nominal) = 2.5 V,
VTRIP (high) is 1.3 V and VTRIP (low) is 1.2 V. For VDDEXT (nominal) = 3.3 V, VTRIP (high) is 1.7 V, and VTRIP (low) is 1.6 V. TimetTRIP is the interval from when the output starts driving to when
the output reaches the VTRIP(high) or VTRIP(low) trip voltage.
Time tENA is calculated as shown in the equation:t ENA = t ENA_MEASURED – t TRIP
If multiple signals (such as the data bus) are enabled, the measurement value is that of the first signal to start driving.

Output Disable Time Measurement

TESTER PIN ELECTRONICS

Output signals are considered to be disabled when they stop
driving, go into a high impedance state, and start to decay fromtheir output high or low voltage. The output disable time tDIS isthe difference between tDIS_MEASURED and tDECAY as shown on theleft side of Figure 54.
t DIS = t DIS_MEASURED – t DECAY
The time for the voltage on the bus to decay by ΔV is dependent
on the capacitive load CL and the load current IL. This decay
time can be approximated by the equation:

50:
VLOAD

T1

DUT
OUTPUT

45:
70:
ZO = 50:(impedance)
TD = 4.04 ± 1.18 ns

50:
0.5pF

4pF

2pF
400:

t DECAY = ( C L ΔV ) ⁄ I L
The time tDECAY is calculated with test loads CL and IL and with
ΔV equal to 0.25 V for VDDEXT/VDDMEM (nominal) = 2.5 V/3.3 V
and 0.15 V for VDDEXT/VDDMEM (nominal) = 1.8 V.
The time tDIS_MEASURED is the interval from when the reference
signal switches to when the output voltage decays ΔV from themeasured output high or output low voltage.

NOTES:THE WORST CASE TRANSMISSION LINE DELAY IS SHOWN AND CAN BE USEDFOR THE OUTPUT TIMING ANALYSIS TO REFLECT THE TRANSMISSION LINE
EFFECT AND MUST BE CONSIDERED. THE TRANSMISSION LINE (TD) IS FOR
LOAD ONLY AND DOES NOT AFFECT THE DATA SHEET TIMING SPECIFICATIONS.
ANALOG DEVICES RECOMMENDS USING THE IBIS MODEL TIMING FOR A GIVENSYSTEM REQUIREMENT. IF NECESSARY, A SYSTEM MAY INCORPORATE
EXTERNAL DRIVERS TO COMPENSATE FOR ANY TIMING DIFFERENCES.

Figure 55. Equivalent Device Loading for AC Measurements(Includes All Fixtures)

Example System Hold Time Calculation

Capacitive Loading
Output delays and holds are based on standard capacitive loads
of an average of 6 pF on all balls (see Figure 55). VLOAD is equalto (VDDEXT/VDDMEM)/2. The graphs of Figure 56 throughFigure 67 show how output rise time varies with capacitance.
The delay and hold specifications given should be derated by afactor derived from these figures. The graphs in these figures
may not be linear outside the ranges shown.

RISE AND FALL TIME (ns)

To determine the data output hold time in a particular system,
first calculate tDECAY using the equation given above. Choose ΔV
to be the difference between the ADSP-BF51x processor’s output voltage and the input threshold for the device requiring thehold time. CL is the total bus capacitance (per data line), and IL is
the total leakage or three-state current (per data line). The holdtime is tDECAY plus the various output disable times as specified
in the Timing Specifications on Page 27 (for example tDSDAT for
an SDRAM write cycle as shown in SDRAM Interface Timingon Page 31).

Values of θJA are provided for package comparison and printed
circuit board design considerations. θJA can be used for a firstorder approximation of TJ by the equation:
T J = T A + ( θ JA × P D )where:TA = Ambient temperature (°C)
Values of θJC are provided for package comparison and printed

Values of θJB are provided for package comparison and printed
circuit board design considerations.
In Table 51, airflow measurements comply with JEDEC standards JESD51-2 and JESD51-6, and the junction-to-board
measurement complies with JESD51-8. The junction-to-casemeasurement complies with MIL-STD-883 (Method 1012.1).
All measurements use a 2S2P JEDEC test board.
The LQFP_EP package requires thermal trace squares and thermal vias to an embedded ground plane in the PCB. The paddle
must be connected to ground for proper operation to data sheet
specifications. Refer to JEDEC standard JESD51-5 for more
information.
