Product details
Overview
ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 from Analog Devices is a 40 MIPS fixed-point DSP microcomputer with 8K × 24-bit on-chip program RAM, 8K × 16-bit on-chip data RAM, dual synchronous serial ports (SPORT0/SPORT1), and 100-lead LQFP packaging. It executes instructions in 25 ns cycles, supports zero-overhead looping, and integrates power-down control for portable audio and telecom terminal applications.
For engineers reviewing the ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 datasheet, ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 pinout, ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 application, or ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 equivalent, key selection criteria include instruction cycle time, on-chip memory configuration, serial port framing flexibility, interrupt priority handling, and low-power mode recovery timing.
Technical Context
The ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 implements the ADSP-2100 base architecture with three independent computational units (ALU, MAC, shifter), two data address generators (DAG1/DAG2), and a zero-overhead program sequencer supporting conditional jumps and subroutine calls in one cycle. Its 3-bus architecture enables simultaneous dual operand fetches from program and data memory per instruction.
It features two double-buffered serial ports with hardware A-law/µ-law companding, programmable 16-bit interval timer with TSCALE prescaler, and flexible memory interface supporting Full Memory Mode (14-bit address, 24-bit data) or Host Mode (16-bit IDMA bus). Power-down entry is triggered via PWD pin or software bit, with 100-cycle recovery guarantee.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-point DSP microcomputer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADSP-2187MSTZ-120 | Higher speed grade (120 MHz core, 20 ns cycle), 144-ball Mini-BGA package, identical instruction set and memory map. | Requires PCB redesign for BGA layout and thermal management; suited for higher-throughput audio analytics where 120 MHz timing margin is needed. | Select when >40 MIPS sustained performance is required and BGA assembly capability exists. |
| TMS320C549PGE | TI C54x architecture; 100 MIPS @ 100 MHz, 16K × 16-bit RAM, different instruction set, no native companding hardware. | Lacks integrated A-law/µ-law; requires software implementation increasing CPU load; broader third-party toolchain support but not code-compatible. | Choose for legacy C54x ecosystem integration or when higher raw MIPS outweighs hardware companding requirement. |
Compared with ADSP-2186BSTZ-115, ADSP-2187MSTZ-120 delivers 20% higher clock rate in a physically incompatible package, while TMS320C549PGE offers greater peak MIPS but demands software-based signal conditioning and lacks direct pin or code compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the ADSP-2186BSTZ-115?
The ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 operates with a 25 ns instruction cycle time, corresponding to a maximum clock frequency of 40 MHz. This timing is guaranteed across commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) and specified under standard VDD conditions. The device achieves sustained 40 MIPS performance due to single-cycle instruction execution and parallel computational unit operation. Clock source may be a 40 MHz crystal or external TTL/CMOS signal applied to CLKIN.
Does the ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 support hardware-based A-law and µ-law companding?
Yes, the ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 integrates dedicated hardware companding logic within both SPORT0 and SPORT1, compliant with CCITT G.711. This enables real-time encoding and decoding of 8-bit compressed audio samples without consuming ALU or MAC resources. Companding is configurable per serial port via control registers and operates independently of data word length (3–16 bits), making it suitable for PSTN gateway and VoIP terminal designs.
How many external interrupt sources does the ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 support, and what types are available?
The ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 supports six external interrupt sources: IRQ2 (edge- or level-sensitive), IRQL0 and IRQL1 (level-sensitive), IRQE (edge-sensitive), and IRQ0/IRQ1 (reconfigurable via SPORT1). All six can be individually masked in IMASK register, and priorities are fixed per Table I in the datasheet (Reset = highest, Timer = lowest). Interrupt vector addresses are hardwired, enabling deterministic response timing critical for real-time audio frame synchronization.
Can the ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 boot directly from external byte-wide memory?
Yes, the ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 supports automatic booting from external byte-wide memory (e.g., EPROM or Flash) through its Byte DMA port. During reset, the processor loads the first 8K words of program memory from external byte space starting at address 0x000000. Boot mode is selected automatically based on memory interface configuration; no external boot ROM controller or glue logic is required, enabling "glueless" system design for cost-sensitive voice terminals.
What low-power modes are implemented in the ADSP-2186BSTZ-115, and how do they differ?
The ADSP-2186BSTZ-115 implements three distinct low-power modes: Power-Down (hardware/software initiated, ~1 µA standby, 100-cycle wake), Idle (CPU halted, peripherals active, interrupt-wakeup), and Slow Idle (clock divisor 16/32/64/128 applied to internal clocks). Unlike Idle, Slow Idle reduces SCLK, CLKOUT, and timer clock rates proportionally, extending battery life in portable audio recorders while maintaining real-time responsiveness within defined latency bounds.
