2-4 Introduction to DSP Programming Writing to DSP DSP commands and data are sent through the Write Command/Data port. Before data is written to the DSP, bit-7 of the Write-Buffer Status port must be checked to ensure that the DSP command/data buffer is empty. If bit-7 is 0, the DSP buffer is empty and is ready to receive commands or data. Otherwise, no commands or data should be written to the DSP. The following assembly code fragment shows the process of writing a command or data byte to the DSP: mov add Busy: in or js mov out al,dx al,al Busy al,bData dx,al ; Read Write-Buffer Status port ; Can write to DSP? ; Bit 7 set, try again ; Get DSP command or data ; Send to DSP dx,wSBCBaseAddx dl,0Ch ; SBC base I/O address 2x0h ; Write-Buffer Status port, 2xCh Handling Interrupts from DSP The DSP generates a hardware interrupt for each of the following processes: DMA mode ADC DMA mode DAC Interrupt mode MIDI input An interrupt service routine (ISR) has to be set up to handle the interrupts. Within the ISR, each DSP interrupt is acknowledged by reading the DSP Read-Buffer Status port once. The acknowledgment of interrupts on DSP version 4.xx is different; see the following section for more information.
