GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The HI-3585 from Holt Integrated Circuits is a silicon gate
CMOS device for interfacing a Serial Peripheral Interface
(SPI) enabled microcontroller to the ARINC 429 serial bus.
The device provides one receiver with user-programmable
label recognition for any combination of 256 possible
labels, 32 x 32 Receive FIFO and analog line receiver.
The independent transmitter has a 32 x 32 Transmit FIFO
and built-in line driver. The status of the transmit and
receive FIFOs can be monitored using the programmable
external interrupt pin, or by polling the HI-3585 Status
Register. Other features include a programmable option
of data or parity in the 32nd bit, and the ability to switch the
bit-signifiance of ARINC 429 labels. Pins are available
with different input resistance and output resistance
values which provides flexibility when using external
lightning protection circuitry.
The Serial Peripheral Interface minimizes the number of
host interface signals resulting in a small footprint device
that can be interfaced to a wide range of industry-standard
microcontrollers supporting SPI. Alternatively, the SPI
signals may be controlled using just four general purpose
I/O port pins from a microcontroller or custom FPGA. The
SPI and all control signals are CMOS and TTL compatible
and support 3.3V or 5V operation.
The HI-3585 applies the ARINC 429 protocol to the
receiver and transmitter. ARINC 429 databus timing
comes from a 1 MHz clock input, or an internal counter can
derive it from higher clock frequencies having certain fixed
values, possibly the external host processor clock.
The HI-3586 is functionally identical to the HI-3585 except
it includes digital transmitter output pins 429D1 and 429D0
instead of a built-in line driver. This allows the designer to
take advantage of Holt’s single supply rail line drivers,
such as the 5V HI-8592 or 3.3V HI-8596.

INSTRUCTIONS
Instruction op codes are used to read, write and configure the HI-
3585. When CS goes low, the next 8 clocks at the SCK pin shift an
instruction op code into the decoder, starting with the first positive
edge. The op code is fed into the SI pin most significant bit first.
For write instructions, the most significant bit of the data word must
immediately follow the instruction op code and is clocked into its
register on the next rising SCK edge. Data word length varies
depending on word type written: 16-bit writes to Control Register,
32-bit ARINC word writes to transmit FIFO or 256-bit writes to the
label-matching enable/disable table.
Table 1 lists all instructions. Instructions that perform a reset or set,
or enable transmission are executed after the last SI bit is received
while CS is still low.
Example:
CS
SCK
SI
op code 07hex
MSB
one SPI Instruction
For read instructions, the most significant bit of the requested data
word appears at the SO pin after the last op code bit is clocked into
the decoder, at the next falling SCK edge. As with write
instructions, data field bit-length varies with read instruction type.

Programs a division of the ACLK input. If the divided ACLK frequency is 1 MHz and Control
Register bit CR1 is set, the ARINC receiver and transmitter operate from the divided ACLK clock.
Allowable values for division rate are X1, X2, X4, X8, or XA hex. Any other programmed value
results in no clock. Note: ACLK input frequency and division ratio must yield 1 MHz clock.

CONTROL WORD REGISTER
The HI-3585 contains a 16-bit Control Register which is used to
configure the device. Control Register bits CR15 - CR0 are loaded
from a 16-bit data value appended to SPI instruction 10 hex. The
Control Register contents may be read using SPI instruction 0B
hex. Each bit of the Control Register has the following function:
STATUS REGISTER
The HI-3585 contains an 8-bit Status Register which can be
interrogated to determine the status of the ARINC receiver, data
FIFOs and transmitter. The contents of the Status Register are
output using SPI instruction 0A hex. Unused bits are output as
Zeros. The following table defines the Status Register bits.

ARINC 429 DATA FORMAT
Control Register bit CR11 controls how individual bits in the
received or transmitted ARINC word are mapped to the HI-3585 SPI
data word bits during data read or write operations. The following
table describes this mapping:

The HI-3585 accepts signals within these tolerances and rejects
signals outside these tolerances. Receiver logic achieves this as
described below:
1. An accurate 1MHz clock source is required to validate the
receive signal timing. Less than 1% error is recommended.
2. The receiver uses three separate 10-bit sampling shift reg-
isters for Ones detection, Zeros detection and Null detection.
When the input signal is within the differential voltage range
for any shift register’s state (One Zero or Null) sampling
clocks a high bit into that register. When the receive signal is
outside the differential voltage range defined for any shift reg-
ister, a low bit is clocked. Only one shift register can clock a
high bit for any given sample. All three registers clock low
bits if the differential input voltage is between defined state
voltage bands.
Valid data bits require at least three consecutive One or Zero
samples (three high bits) in the upper half of the Ones or
Zeros sampling shift register, and at least three consecutive
Null samples (three high bits) in the lower half of the Null sam-
pling shift register within the data bit interval.
A word gap Null requires at least three consecutive Null sam-
ples (three high bits) in the upper half of the Null sampling
shift register and at least three consecutive Null samples
(three high bits) in the lower half of the Null sampling shift reg-
ister. This guarantees the minimum pulse width.

3. To validate the receive data bit rate, each bit must follow
its preceding bit by not less than 8 samples and not more
than 12 samples. With exactly 1MHz input clock frequency,
the acceptable data bit rates are:
HIGH SPEED
DATA BIT RATE MIN
DATA BIT RATE MAX
83K BPS
125K BPS
LOW SPEED
10.4K BPS
15.6K BPS
FIGURE 1. ARINC RECEIVER INPUT
The HI-3585 guarantees recognition of these levels with a common
mode voltage with respect to GND less than ±30V for the worst case
condition (3.15V supply and 13V signal level).
Design tolerances guarantee detection of the above levels, so the
actual acceptance ranges are slightly larger. If the ARINC signal
(including nulls) is outside the differential voltage ranges, the HI-
3585 receiver rejects the data.
4. Following the last data bit of a valid reception, the Word
Gap timer samples the Null shift register every 10 input
clocks (every 80 clocks for low speed). If a Null is present,
the Word Gap counter is incremented. A Word Gap count of
3 enables the next reception.
