  • Page 18: Ssi Interface

    SMRA - SSI and BiSS 5 - SSI interface Order codes: SMRA-BGx-… SMRA-GGx-… 5.1 SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) SSI (the acronym for Synchronous Serial Interface) is a synchronous point-to-point serial interface engineered for unidirectional data transmission between one Master and one Slave. Developed in the first eighties, it is based on the RS-422 serial standard.
  • Page 19: Msb Left Aligned Protocol

    SMRA - SSI and BiSS At each change of the clock signal and at each subsequent rising edge (2) one bit is clocked out at a time, up to LSB, so completing the data word transmission. The cycle ends at the last rising edge of the clock signal (3). This means that up to n + 1 rising edges of the clock signals are required for each data word transmission (where n is the bit resolution);...
