If there are more data words to read, IRQ will fall at the rising edge of CLK for the NACK. Otherwise, IRQ

remains high until an I

C Stop condition or an I

C Repeated-Start condition occurs.

3.3 SPI Port

The CS485xx Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) bus has been developed for 8-bit digital control applications,
such as those requiring microcontrollers. SPI communication is accomplished with 6 lines: Serial Control
Port Input Busy (SCP_BSY), Serial Control Port Data Ready Interrupt Request (SCP_IRQ), Serial Chip
Select (SCP_CS), Serial Control Clock (SCP_CLK), Master Out/Slave In data (SCP_MOSI), and a Master
In/Slave Out data (SCP_MISO). Although the separate data I/O lines provide full-duplex capabilities, the
CS485xx chip only uses a half-duplex SPI-bus. Each device on the bus may respond to one or more unique
commands, and can operate as either a transmitter or receiver. A device is considered the master in a
transaction if it drives the CS pin of another device, and is also mastering the SCP_CLK line. A block
diagram of the CS485xx SPI Serial Control Port is provided in
