Theory of Operation
Inguard Software Description

The A/D state machine has several modes of operation: perform conversion (measure
input); do a reference balance reading with both references on; or do a reference balance
reading with both references off. These modes are selected by the A3U5 A/D
microprocessor through a two-bit parallel port, which consists of two data lines and a
strobe line. The codes for the commands are given in Table 2-19: A/D Command Codes.
To send a command to the A/D state machine, the data lines are set to the values shown,
and then latched with a rising edge on the strobe line.

Reference Balance Reading, Neither Reference 1 0
There are two lines from the A/D state machine (A3U18) that indicate its state. These are
connected as interrupt request signals to the A3U5 A/D microprocessor. The falling edge
of the A/D Interrupt* signal indicates that a reading is complete and the counters are
ready to be read. The A/D Interrupt* signal goes high at the beginning of the Integrate
period, when the counters are cleared, and the signal is read by the A3U5 A/D
microprocessor reads the counters to make sure that they were read in time. The
DE_INT* signal indicates the beginning of the Deintegrate period. See Figure 2-16 A/D
Status Signals.
