Product details
Overview
ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 from Analog Devices is a 33 MIPS fixed-point DSP microcomputer optimized for real-time audio, telecom, and industrial control applications. It integrates 16K × 24-bit on-chip program RAM, 16K × 16-bit on-chip data RAM, dual 16-bit serial ports with hardware companding, a 16-bit internal DMA port, and operates at 30 ns instruction cycle time (33 MHz equivalent) in a 100-lead TQFP package.
For engineers reviewing the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 datasheet, ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 pinout, ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 application, or ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 equivalent, key selection criteria include sustained 33 MIPS performance, zero-overhead looping capability, dual SPORTs supporting A-law/µ-law, 100-cycle power-down recovery, and ICE-Port™-enabled in-circuit emulation without target board modification.
Technical Context
The ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 implements the ADSP-2100 family base architecture with three independent computational units (ALU, MAC, shifter), two dedicated DAGs, and a zero-overhead program sequencer. Its 3-bus architecture enables simultaneous dual operand fetches per instruction cycle - one from program memory and one from data memory - while executing computation and updating address pointers.
It supports full memory mode (14-bit address bus, 24-bit data bus) or host mode (16-bit multiplexed IDMA bus), programmable wait states for slow peripherals, and flexible interrupt handling with six external IRQ inputs (edge/level configurable), timer, SPORT, BDMA, and nonmaskable power-down interrupts - all managed via IMASK and ICNTL registers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Instruction Cycle Time | 30 ns - enables 33 MIPS sustained throughput with single-cycle execution of all instructions including context switches. |
| On-Chip Memory | 80 KB total: 16K × 24-bit program RAM + 16K × 16-bit data RAM - eliminates need for external program/data memory in many embedded DSP designs. |
| Serial Ports | Two double-buffered SPORTs - support synchronous frameless/framed operation, 3–16-bit word lengths, and hardware A-law/µ-law companding per CCITT G.711. |
| Power-Down Recovery | 100 CLKIN cycles - allows rapid wake-up from ultra-low-power state without oscillator stabilization delay when using external clock. |
| Package | 100-lead TQFP (14 mm × 14 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) - surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles and high I/O density for system integration. |
| Process Technology | 0.5 µm CMOS - delivers low active and standby power dissipation suitable for battery-powered portable equipment. |
| Emulation Interface | 14-pin ICE-Port™ - provides full-speed in-target debugging, breakpoint support, register/memory access, and C-source-level trace without removing the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 from the target board. |
Pinout & Package
ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 is housed in a 100-lead thin quad flat pack (TQFP) with 0.5 mm lead pitch, compliant with JEDEC MO-152AC. Pin functions are mode-dependent: Full Memory Mode uses A13:A0 and D23:D0 for external addressing/data; Host Mode repurposes pins as IAD15:IAD0, IWR, IRD, IAL, IS, and IACK for 16-bit IDMA interface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RESET | Asynchronous processor reset input | Active-low signal that initializes all registers, clears stacks, and forces boot sequence - must be held low ≥100 ns after power stabilization. |
| CLKIN / XTAL | System clock input (crystal or TTL) | Accepts 16.67 MHz external clock (half-instruction rate) or parallel-resonant crystal - determines core timing; CLKOUT reflects internal instruction clock when enabled. |
| SPORT0 / SPORT1 | Dual synchronous serial I/O interfaces | Each provides independent Tx/Rx double buffers, programmable clocks, framing, and optional companding - SPORT1 can be reconfigured to expose IRQ0/IRQ1 and Flag In/Out signals. |
| PF0–PF7 | Programmable flag I/O pins | 13 total flags: 8 software-configurable as input/output, 3 dedicated outputs (FL0–FL2), with concurrent interrupt functionality on IRQ/Flag multiplexed pins (e.g., IRQ2/PF7). |
| PWD / PWDACK | Hardware power-down control | PWD initiates low-power dormant state; PWDACK asserts when power-down is fully entered - enables precise coordination with external power management circuitry. |
| EZ-Port (9 pins) | ICE-Port™ emulator interface | Provides JTAG-compatible debug access: TRST, TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO, plus control/status lines - supports full-speed emulation, memory inspection, and non-intrusive breakpoint insertion. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zero-overhead looping | Hardware loop counters and stack eliminate branch penalties - enables deterministic execution of tight filter kernels and FFT butterflies without cycle loss. |
| Dual operand fetch per cycle | 3-bus architecture (PMA, DMA, R) allows simultaneous instruction fetch, data load, and result write - critical for MAC-intensive FIR/IIR implementations. |
| Flexible memory interface modes | Full Memory Mode (external overlay support) and Host Mode (IDMA for glueless microcontroller interfacing) - simplifies integration into heterogeneous systems without custom logic. |
| Hardware companding | Integrated A-law and µ-law encoding/decoding per CCITT G.711 - offloads CPU from real-time voice compression tasks in telephony and VoIP endpoints. |
| Low-power operation | Three distinct modes: Power-Down (100-cycle wake), Idle (interrupt-wait), Slow Idle (programmable 16×–128× clock scaling) - extends battery life in portable DSP instruments and field-deployed sensors. |

FAQ
What clock source options does the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 support?
The ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 accepts either a 16.67 MHz TTL-compatible external clock applied to CLKIN (with XTAL left unconnected), or a parallel-resonant fundamental-mode crystal (e.g., 33.33 MHz) across CLKIN/XTAL pins. The internal oscillator automatically configures for crystal operation; external clock mode disables the oscillator to reduce power. Both sources yield a 30 ns instruction cycle time.
Does the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 support in-circuit debugging without removing the chip from the target board?
Yes, the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 integrates on-chip ICE-Port™ emulation support accessible via its dedicated 14-pin EZ-Port interface. This enables full-speed in-target debugging - including breakpoints, register/memory inspection, and C-source-level trace - without removing the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 from the final PCB or adding socket adapters.
How does the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 handle external memory interfacing in Full Memory Mode versus Host Mode?
In Full Memory Mode (Mode C = 0), ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 exposes A13:A0 and D23:D0 for direct connection to external byte-wide memory (up to 4 MB) and I/O peripherals. In Host Mode (Mode C = 1), it presents a 16-bit multiplexed IDMA bus (IAD15:IAD0) with dedicated control signals (IWR, IRD, IAL, IS, IACK) for glueless interfacing to microcontrollers or FPGAs - sacrificing address space for simplified system integration.
Can the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 execute bit manipulation operations natively?
Yes, the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 extends the base ADSP-2100 instruction set with native bit-level operations: BIT SET, BIT CLEAR, BIT TOGGLE, and BIT TEST. These instructions execute in a single cycle and operate directly on memory or register operands - enabling efficient GPIO control, protocol bit-banging, and status register management without software bit-shifting overhead.
What is the minimum recovery time from power-down mode for the ADSP-2185KSTZ-115?
The ADSP-2185KSTZ-115 guarantees recovery from hardware- or software-initiated power-down mode in exactly 100 CLKIN cycles. This deterministic wake-up time applies regardless of whether an external clock or crystal is used, and is independent of oscillator stabilization - making it suitable for battery-powered devices requiring rapid response to external triggers.
