Technical discussions about Freescale (Motorola) DSPs (including the DSP56000, DSP56300, DSP56600, 56800 DSPs).
Hi, ESSI operating in the asynchronous mode requires separate frame syncs and uses separate clocks for clocking data in and out of the DSP. Though the clocks are independent for the transmitter and receiver, I would still assume that the clocks SCK0(TX clock) and SC00(RX clock) be in phase with another as they are still being generated from the same source when I have ESSI setup to use the internal clock. The Technical Datasheet (DSP56858) for ESSI does not indicate that the clocks would be out of phase. However, this is not the case when I view these two clocks on my oscilloscope they appear to be out of phase by half a cycle. Does anyone know why this is the case? Thanks.
