    Study Notes

    UART

    • Widely used for terminal applications, such as Cisco routers.
    • Default settings are 9600bps and 8N1.

    1-Wire Interface

    • Developed by Dallas Semiconductors.
    • Uses two wires: communication line and ground.
    • Communication line provides power to slave devices.
    • Each device connects with an open-drain output and pull-up resistor.
    • Allows any device to pull the wire to "0".
    • Each device can monitor the wire's state.
    • Relatively slow (16.3kbit/s, but can reach 160kbit/s in "burst" mode).
    • Supports long wire lengths (~100m).

    1-Wire Interface Communication

    • Wire idle state is "1".
    • Master device initiates data transfer by pulling the wire to "0" for at least 480us.
    • This action resets all slave devices.
    • Slave devices send a "presence" signal by pulling the wire to "0" for 60us.

    1-Wire Interface Protocol

    • Master pulls the wire to "0" for data transmission:
      • 1-15us for "1" logical value.
      • 60us for "0" logical value.
    • To read data, master sends a short pulse (1-15us).
    • Slave pulls down the line for "0" (60us).
    • Slave does nothing for "1".
    • Basic sequence includes a reset pulse, 8 bits of command, and a data byte.
    • Supports multiple slaves, each with a unique 64-bit ID.

    Universal Serial Bus (USB)

    • Standardized serial bus for computer-peripheral communication and power supply.
    • Full-duplex communication, supporting various speeds (USB 2.0, USB 3.0, etc.).
    • Provides power to devices (5V DC, 0.5A or 0.9A).
    • Offers high-speed data transfer, wide adoption, and plug-and-play functionality.
    • More complex than SPI, I2C, UART.
    • Not suitable for IC-to-IC communication.

    I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit)

    • Developed by Philips, synchronous serial, half-duplex, multi-master, multi-slave protocol.
    • Uses two bidirectional lines: SDA (Serial Data Line) and SCL (Serial Clock Line).
    • Employs device addresses for communication with multiple devices instead of individual slave select signals.
    • Advantages: Fewer wires, supports multiple devices on the same bus.
    • Disadvantages: Slower than SPI (originally limited to 100kbit/s and 400kbit/s, but faster speeds up to 5Mbit/s are available).
    • More complex due to addressing and half-duplex communication.

    I2C Design

    • Each device has a 7-bit address (10-bit addresses also available).
    • Allows multiple master devices to control the bus.
    • All target (slave) nodes listen to communication but only respond at their respective addresses.
    • Four modes:
      • Master transmit: Controller sending data to a slave.
      • Master receive: Controller receiving data from a slave.
      • Slave transmit: Slave sending data to the controller.
      • Slave receive: Slave receiving data from the controller.

    I2C Signals

    • Signal levels assigned to "1" and "0" bits.
    • Both SDA and SCL lines are HIGH in the inactive state.
    • SDA is examined after the SCL rises HIGH.
    • Two special signals:
      • START condition: SDA pulled LOW while SCL remains HIGH.
      • STOP condition: SDA pulled HIGH while SCL remains HIGH.
    • After the START condition, master starts transmitting data to slaves.
    • First data byte contains the slave device address and a R/W bit.

    I2C Communication

    • Master sends START condition, address, and R/W bits.
    • When master writes to the slave, the slave generates an ACK or NAK bit after receiving a byte.
    • Master provides an extra clock for the ACK/NAK bit.
    • For master reading from the slave, the master generates an ACK or NAK bit after receiving a byte.
    • Master can generate a START condition during transmission, known as REPEATED START condition.

    Overview of Digital Interfaces

    • Handling binary values requires multiple bits for simultaneous writing or reading.
    • Multiple bits require multiple pins and wires.
    • These wires form a "bus".
    • A processing unit communicates with other units on the bus.
    • Bus can be serial or parallel.

    Transmission Techniques

    • Two main methods:
      • Baseband: Converting data bits into electrical or optical pulses without modulation.
      • Broadband: Modulating the carrier signal's frequency, amplitude, or phase based on data bits.

    Baseband

    • Two main techniques:
      • Return-to-Zero (RZ): Signal's amplitude returns to zero within the symbol period.
      • Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ): Signal's amplitude doesn't return to zero within the symbol period.
    • Assign physical states to logical states (e.g., 5V represents logical "1").
    • The other logical state is represented by 0V (unipolar coding) or a negative value (bipolar coding).
    • Challenge: Synchronizing bitrate clocks between the source and destination.

    Unipolar RZ Coding

    • Bit "1" is represented by "+A" physical state (+1V in the example).
    • Bit "0" is represented by 0V.
    • Physical state returns to 0V in the middle of the symbol period.
    • Problem: Data containing only "0" bits results in a permanent 0V physical state, making clock synchronization impossible.

    Polar RZ Coding

    • Bit "1" is represented by "+A" physical state (+1V in the example).
    • Bit "0" is represented by "-A" physical state (-1V in the example).
    • Physical state returns to 0V in the middle of the symbol period.
    • Advantage: Line state changes with each bit, facilitating relatively easy synchronization.

    Unipolar NRZ Coding

    • Bit "1" is represented by "+A" physical state (+1V in the example).
    • Bit "0" is represented by 0V.
    • Problem: No physical state change occurs if payload data contains only "1" or "0" bits.

    Polar NRZ Coding

    • Bit "1" is represented by "+A" physical state (+1V in the example).
    • Bit "0" is represented by "-A" physical state (-1V in the example).
    • Advantage: Line state changes with each bit, facilitating relatively easy synchronization.
