GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
LS7366 is a 32-bit CMOS counter, with direct interface for quadrature clocks from incremental encoders. It also interfaces with the
index signals from incremental encoders to perform variety of
marker functions.
For communications with microprocessors or microcontrollers, it
provides a 4-wire SPI/MICROWIRE bus.The four standard bus I/Os
are SS/, SCK, MISO and MOSI. The data transfer between a microcontroller and a slave LS7366 is synchronous. The synchronization
is done by the SCK clocks supplied by the microcontroller. Each
transmission is organized in blocks of 1 to 5 bytes of data. A transmission cycle is intitiated by a high to low transition of the SS/ input.
The first byte received in a transmission cycle is always an instruction byte, whereas the second through the fifth bytes are always
interpreted as data bytes. A transmission cycle is terminated with
the low to high transition of the SS/ input. Received bytes are shifted
in at the MOSI input, MSB first, with the leading edges (high transition) of the SCK clocks. Output data are shifted out on the MISO
output, MSB first, with the trailing edges (low transition) of the SCK
clocks.

Read and write commands cannot be combined.
For example, when the device is shifting out read
data on MISO output, it ignores the MOSI input,
even though the SS/ input is active. SS/ must be
terminated and reasserted before the device will
accept a new command.
The counter can be configured to operate as a 1, 2,
3 or 4-byte counter. When configured as a n-byte
counter, the CNTR, DTR and OTR are all configured as n-byte registers, where n = 1, 2, 3 or 4. The
content of the instruction/data identity is automatically adjusted to match the n-byte configuration. For
example, if the counter is configured as a 2-byte
counter, the instruction “write to DTR” expects 2
data bytes following the instruction byte. If the
counter is configured as a 3-byte counter, the same
instruction will expect 3 bytes of data following the
instruction byte.
Following the transfer of the appropriate number of
bytes any further attempt of data transfer is ignored
until a new instruction cycle is started by switching
the SS/ input to high and then low.
The counter can be programmed to operate in a
number of different modes, with the operating
characteristics being written into the two mode
registers MDR0 and MDR1. Hardware I/Os are
provided for event driven operations, such as
processor interrupt and index related functions.
I/O Pins:
Following is a description of all the input/output pins.
A (Pin 12) B (Pin 11)
Inputs. A and B quadrature clock outputs from incremental
encoders are directly applied to the A and B inputs of the
LS7366. These clocks are ideally 90 degrees out-of-phase
signals. A and B inputs are validated by on-chip digital filters
and then decoded for up/down direction and count clocks.
In non-quadrature mode, A serves as the count input and B
serves as the direction input (B = high enables up count, B
= low enables down count). In non-quadrature mode, the A
and B inputs are not filtered internally, and are instantaneous in nature.
INDEX (Pin 10)
Input. The INDEX is a programmable input that can be
driven directly by the Index output of an incremental encoder. It can be programmed via the MDR to function as one of
the following:
LCNTR (load CNTR with data from DTR), RCNTR (reset
CNTR), or LOTR (load OTR with data from CNTR).
Alternatively, the INDEX input can be masked out for "no
functionality".
In quadrature mode, the INDEX input is validated with the
filter clock in order to synchronize with the quadrature inputs
A and B. To be valid, the INDEX signal in quadrature mode
must overlap the condition in which both A and B are low or
both A and B are high. In non-quadrature mode, however,
the INDEX input is instantaneous in nature and totally
independent of A and B.
fCKi (Pin 2), fCK0 (Pin 1)
Input, Output. A crystal connected between these 2 pins
generates the basic clock for filtering the A, B and INDEX
inputs in the quadrature count mode. Instead of a crystal the
fCKi input may also be driven by an external clock.
The frequency at the fCKi input is either divided by 2 (if
MDR0 <B7> = 1) or divided by 1 (if MDR0 <B7> = 0) for the
filter circuit. For proper filtering of the A, B and the Index
inputs the following condition must be satisfied:
ff ≥ 4fQA
Where ff is the internal filter clock frequency derived from
the fCKi in accordance with the status of MDR0 <B7> and
fQA is the maximum frequency of Clock A in quadrature
mode.
In non-quadrature count mode, fCKi is not used and should
be tied off to any stable logic state.
SS/ (Pin 4)
A high to low transition at the SS/ (Slave Select) input
selects the LS7366 for serial bi-directional data transfer; a
low to high transition disables serial data transfer and brings
the MISO output to high impedance state. This allows for the
accommodation of multiple slave units on the serial I/O.
CNT_EN (Pin 13)
Input. Counting is enabled when CNT_EN input is high;
counting is disabled when this input is low. There is an internal pull-up resistor on this input.
7366-061804-2
LFLAG/ (Pin 8), DFLAG/ (Pin 9)
Outputs. LFLAG/ and DFLAG/ are programmable outputs to flag
the occurences of Carry (counter overflow), Borrow (counter
underflow), Compare (CNTR = DTR) and INDEX. The LFLAG/ is
an open drain latched output. In contrast, the DFLAG/ is a pushpull instantaneous output. The LFLAG/ can be wired in multislave configuration, forming a single processor interrupt line.
When active LFLAG/ switches to logic 0 and can be restored to
the high impedence state only by clearing the status register,
STR. In contrast, the DFLAG/ dynamically switches low with
occurences of Carry, Barrow, Compare and INDEX conditions.
The configuration of LFLAG/ and DFLAG/ are made through the
control register MDR1. In free-running count mode LFLAG/ and
DFLAG/ output the same status information in latched and
dynamic form respectively. In single-cycle mode the DFLAG/
outputs CY and BW signals independent of the MDR1 configuration. In range-limit and modulo-n modes, DFLAG/ outputs CMP
signal in count-up direction (at CNTR = DTR) and BW signal
when CNTR underflows independent of the MDR1 configuration.
In effect, DFLAG/ generates mode-relevant marker signals in all
modes, excepting the free-running count mode wherein MDR1
configures the output signal selection.
MOSI (RXD) (Pin 7)
Input. Serial output data from the host processor is shifted into
the LS7366 at this input.
MISO (TXD) (Pin 6)
Output. Serial output data from the LS7366 is shifted out on the
MISO (Master In Slave Out) pin. The MISO output goes into
high impedance state when SS/ input is at logic high, providing
multiple slave-unit serial outputs to be wire-ORed.
SCK (Pin 5)
Input. The SCK input serves as the shift clock input for transmitting data in and out of LS7366 on the MOSI and the MISO pins,
respectively. Since the LS7366 can operate only in the slave
mode, the SCK signal is provided by the host processor as a
means for synchronizing the serial transmission between itself
and the slave LS7366.
REGISTERS:
The following is a list of LS7366 internal registers:
Upon power-up the registers DTR, CNTR, STR, MDR0 and
MDR1 are reset to zero.
DTR. The DTR is a software configurable 8, 16, 24 or 32-bit
input data register which can be written into directly from MOSI,
the serial input. The DTR data can be transferred into the 32-bit
counter (CNTR) under program control or by hardware index
signal. The DTR can be cleared to zero by software control. In
certain count modes, such as modulo-n and range-limit, DTR
holds the data for "n" and the count range, respectively. In
compare operations, whereby compare flag is set, the DTR is
compared with the CNTR.
STR. The STR is an 8-bit status register which stores
count related status information.

MDR0. The MDR0 (Mode Register 0) is an 8-bit read/write register that sets up the operating mode for the LS7366. The MDR0 is
written into by executing the "write-to-MDR0" instruction via the instruction register. Upon power up MDR0 is cleared to zero. The

where n = DTR, in both up and down directions).
