DEBUG
To access the Debug window, select Debug from the tab selection.
The Debug window gives you complete direct access to the
register map as well as control of many external pins. The
Debug window is intended for debugging issues with the
AD9915. It can be used for all programming, but is not user-
friendly; this may result in improper programming of reserved
bits.
DROVR alerts when ramp generation is over. The ramp
direction (rising or falling) is externally controlled by the
DRCTL. Logic 0 causes the DRG to ramp with a negative
slope, whereas logic 1 causes the DRG to ramp with a positive
slope. DRHOLD allows the user to suspend the ramp generator
in its present state. When this is set to logic 1, the DRG is
stalled at its last state; otherwise, the DRG operates normally.
EXTAMPCTL sets the OSK feature on either manual or
automatic mode. EXTPDCTL is a flag input that would initiate
the programmed power-down mode. RESET is the master reset

that clears all memory elements and sets registers to default
values.
IOUPDATE transfers the contents of the I/O buffers to the
corresponding internal registers. PS0, PS1, and PS2 control
the profile register pins. See the AD9915 data sheet for the
logic to control the profiles via the external pins.
SYNC IO controls the SYNCIO pin.This pin is used to reset
the serial port.
The REGISTER MAP shows the values of all the registers in
AD9915. Note that there are two sources (buffer) for the
register map; software and hardware. Using the Software
source allows to display the values that reflects the current user
interface settings. On the other hand, the Hardware source
displays the register values that are written to, or read from the
part which requires a Refresh.
