Command Queue
The Command Queue is the mechanism that stores and processes specific commands received from the Programming
Interface. The commands that make use of the Command Queue are identified in Section 4 by the ‘Queue’ field.
The behavior of the Command Queue can be modified in a number of ways to suit a specific application. Some of the
available options include command sequencing, inter-command delay control, and various triggering source selections.
The Command Queue behavior can be returned to its defaults at any time by executing the
3.2.4.1
Immediate Mode
By default, the Command Queue is configured for Immediate Mode. Any command executed from the Programming
Interface will not be stored in the Queue and will be processed immediately. Immediate Mode is indicated by use of
the Standard Prompt as indicated by Table 3.2.1-1.
3.2.4.2
Buffer Mode
Buffer Mode allows for commands to be stored into one of two Command Queues until a trigger signal is received.
Doing so enables commands to be sequenced and executed in a deterministic fashion. The Inter-command delay can
be tightly controlled by inserting
The additional delay, specified in terms of clock cycles, helps to
ensure the required command timing can be achieved.
