CLK and DIN may be used to transmit data to other
peripherals. The MAX6952 ignores all activity on CLK
and DIN except when CS is low.
Controlling the MAX6952 requires sending a 16-bit
word. The first byte, D15 through D8, is the command
byte (Table 3), and the second byte, D7 through D0, is
the data byte.
Multiple MAX6952s may be daisy-chained by connect-
ing the DOUT of one device to the DIN of the next, and
driving CLK and CS lines in parallel (Figure 6). Data at
DIN propagates through the internal shift registers and
appears at DOUT 15.5 clock cycles later, clocked out
on the falling edge of CLK. When sending commands
to daisy-chained MAX6952s, all devices are accessed
at the same time. An access requires (16 x n) clock
cycles, where n is the number of MAX6952s connected
together. To update just one device in a daisy-chain,
the user can send the no-op command (0x00) to the
others.
The MAX6952 contains a 16-bit shift register into which
DIN data are clocked on the rising edge of SCLK, when
CS is low. When CS is high, transitions on SCLK have
no effect. When CS goes high, the 16 bits in the shift
