5.3 Mark and space frequencies
Mark and space communication frequencies are defined by the following formula:
F ("0") = FCarrier + [
F]/2
F ("1") = FCarrier - [
F]/2
F is the Frequency Deviation.
With Deviation = “0.5” the difference in terms of frequency between the mark and space
tones is half the Baudrate value (F = 0.5*BAudrate). When the Deviation = “1” the
difference is the Baudrate itself (F = Baudrate). The minimal Frequency Deviation is
600Hz.

5.4 ST7538Q mains access
ST7538Q can access the Mains in two different ways:
Synchronous access
Asynchronous access
The choice between the two types of access can be performed by means of Control
Register bit 14 (see Ta ble 1 1) and affects the ST7538Q data flow in Transmission Mode as
in Reception Mode (for how to set the communication Mode, see Section 5.5 on page 18).
In Data Transmission Mode:
Synchronous Mains access: on clock signal provided by ST7538Q (CLR/T line)
rising edge, data transmission line (TxD line) value is read and sent to the FSK
Modulator. ST7538Q manages the Transmission timing according to the
BaudRate Selected.
Asynchronous Mains access: data transmission line (TxD line) value enters
directly to the FSK Modulator. The Host Controller manages the Transmission
timing (CLR/T line should be neglected).

In Data Reception Mode:
Synchronous Mains access: on clock signal recovered by a PLL from ST7538Q
(CLR/T line) rising edge, value on FSK Demodulator is read and put to the data
reception line (RxD line). ST7538Q recovers the bit timing according to the
BaudRate Selected.
Asynchronous Mains access: Value on FSK Demodulator is sent directly to the
data reception line (RxD line). The Host Controller recovers the communication
timing (CLR/T line should be neglected).
5.5 Host processor interface
ST7538Q exchanges data with the host processor through a serial interface.
The data transfer is managed by REG_DATA and RxTx Lines, while data are exchanged
using RxD, TxD and CLR/T lines.
Four are the ST7538Q working modes:
Data Reception
Data Transmission
Control Register Read
Control Register Write
REG_DATA and RxTx lines are level sensitive inputs.
ST7538Q features two type of Host Communication Interfaces:
–SPI
–UART
The selection can be done through the UART/SPI pin. If UART/SPI pin is forced to “0” SPI
interface is selected while if UART/SPI pin is forced to “1” UART interface is selected
(a)
. The
type of interface affects the Data Reception by setting the idle state of RxD line. When
ST7538Q is in Receiving mode (REG_DATA=”0” and RxTx =“1”) and no data are available
on mains (or RxD is forced to an idle state, i.e. with a conditioned Detection Method), the
RxD line is forced to “0” when UART/SPI pin is forced to ”0” or to “1” when UART/SPI pin is
forced to ”1”.
