BF533, PPI_CONTROL errors

Started by stephen coffey September 1, 2004
Hello,

I am trying to connect up a BF533 (EZ_KIT) to an image
sensor. The digital image sensor has two sync signals,
HSYNC and VSYNC. My problem is this:

when I try to configure the PPI_CONTROL register for
two external syncs nothing happens, i.e it dosent
work. It works with one sync signal. For example with

PPI_CONTROL: (PORT_CFG, XFR_TYPE, POL=0,
DLEN=8 bits, PORT_DIR=0, FLD_SEL=0)

then data is received into the PPI through DMA
correctly.However when I try to use two syncs, or even
three with PFS3 tied to ground, i.e PORT_CFG = 01, 10,
no information is recieved into the PPI.

Is there some anomaly with the PPI_CONTROL register
which hasnt been noted by ADI, or do the actuall sync
signals arriving at the DSP pins have to be in a
special format (HIGH-to-LOW, LOW-to-HIGH), or need
special timing requirments.

I hope I have explained my problem well enough for
anyone who reads this to understand it, and I would
appreciate anyones help with this matter,

regards

Stephen.

Hello,

Could you told me how you do with one sync signal, because i have to make this for a dsp bf533 stamp, and i try some program but i have some problem.
