General Interfacing
The 12-bit (HCTL-2000) or 16-bit
(HCTL-2016/2020) latch and
inhibit logic allows access to 12
or 16 bits of count with an 8-bit
bus. When only 8-bits of count
are required, a simple 8-bit (1-
byte) mode is available by
holding SEL high continuously.
This disables the inhibit logic. OE
provides control of the tri-state
bus, and read timing is shown in
Figures 2 and 3.
For proper operation of the
inhibit logic during a two-byte
read, OE and SEL must be
synchronous with CLK due to
the falling edge sampling of OE
and SEL.
The internal inhibit logic on the
HCTL-20XX family inhibits the
transfer of data from the counter
to the position data latch during
the time that the latch outputs are
being read. The inhibit logic
allows the microprocessor to first
read the high order 4 or 8 bits
from the latch and then read the
low order 8 bits from the latch.
Meanwhile, the counter can
continue to keep track of the
quadrature states from the CHA
and CHB input signals.
Figure 11 shows the simplified
inhibit logic circuit. The
operation of the circuitry is
illustrated in the read timing
shown in Figure 13.
Figure 13. Typical Interface Timing.
*OE can consist of two short low pulses, as well as one long pulse, and still satisfy
the inhibit logic sequence. During the time that OE is high, the data lines are tri-seated.
