GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADIS16227 iSensor® is a complete vibration sensing system

that combines wide bandwidth, triaxial acceleration sensing with

advanced time domain and frequency domain signal processing.

Time domain signal processing includes a programmable decimation

filter and selectable windowing function. Frequency domain

processing includes a 512 point, real-valued FFT for each axis,

along with FFT averaging, which reduces the noise floor variation

for finer resolution. The 16-record FFT storage system offers

users the ability to track changes over time and to capture FFTs

with multiple decimation filter settings.

The 22 kHz sensor resonance and 100.2 kSPS sample rate

provide a frequency response that is suitable for machine-health

applications. The aluminum core provides excellent mechanical

coupling to the MEMS acceleration sensors. An internal clock

drives the data sampling and signal processing system during all

operations, which eliminates the need for an external clock

source. The data capture function has three modes that offer

several options to meet the needs of many different applica-

tions.

The SPI and data buffer structure provide convenient access

to wide bandwidth sensor data. The ADIS16227 also offers a

digital temperature sensor and digital power supply measure-

ments.

The ADIS16227 is available in a 15 mm × 15 mm × 15 mm module

with a threaded hole for stud mounting with a 10-32 UNF screw.

The dual-row, 1 mm, 14-pin, flexible connector enables simple

user interface and installation. The ADIS16227 is footprint and

pin-for-pin compatible with the ADIS16223. It has an extended

operating temperature range of −40°C to +125°C.

THEORY OF OPERATION

The ADIS16227 is a triaxial, wide bandwidth, vibration-sensing

system. It combines a triaxial MEMS accelerometer with a

sampling and advanced signal processing system. The SPI-

compatible port and user register structure provide convenient

access to frequency domain vibration data and many user

controls.

SENSING ELEMENT

Digital vibration sensing in the ADIS16227 starts with a wide

bandwidth MEMS accelerometer core on each axis, which provides

a linear motion-to-electrical transducer function. Figure 5 provides

a basic physical diagram of the sensing element and its response

to linear acceleration. It uses a fixed frame and a moving frame

to form a differential capacitance network that responds to linear

acceleration. Tiny springs tether the moving frame to the fixed

frame and govern the relationship between acceleration and

physical displacement. A modulation signal on the moving plate

feeds through each capacitive path into the fixed frame plates and

into a demodulation circuit, which produces the electrical signal

that is proportional to the acceleration acting on the device.

USER INTERFACE

SPI Interface

The user registers manage user access to both sensor data and

configuration inputs. Each 16-bit register has its own unique bit

assignment and two addresses: one for its upper byte and one for

its lower byte. Table 8 provides a memory map for each register,

along with its function and lower byte address. The data

collection and configuration command uses the SPI, which

consists of four wires. The chip select (CS) signal activates the

SPI interface, and the serial clock (SCLK) synchronizes the

serial data lines. Input commands clock into the DIN pin, one

bit at a time, on the SCLK rising edge. Output data clocks out of

the DOUT pin on the SCLK falling edge. When the SPI is used

as a slave device, the DOUT contents reflect the information

requested using a DIN command.

Dual Memory Structure

The user registers provide addressing for all input/output operations

in the SPI interface. The control registers use a dual memory

structure. The controller uses SRAM registers for normal

operation, including user-configuration commands. The flash

memory provides nonvolatile storage for control registers that

have flash backup (see Table 8). Storing configuration data in

the flash memory requires a manual flash update command

(GLOB_CMD[6] = 1, DIN = 0xBE40). When the device powers

on or resets, the flash memory contents load into the SRAM, and

the device starts producing data according to the configuration

in the control registers.

BASIC OPERATION

The ADIS16227 uses a SPI for communication, which enables

a simple connection with a compatible, embedded processor

platform, as shown in Figure 8. The factory default configuration

for DIO1 provides a busy indicator signal that transitions low

when an event completes and data is available for user access.

Use the DIO_CTRL register (see Table 59) to reconfigure DIO1

and DIO2, if necessary.

SPI WRITE COMMANDS

User control registers govern many internal operations. The

DIN bit sequence in Figure 12 provides the ability to write to

these registers, one byte at a time. Some configuration changes

and functions require only one write cycle. For example, set

GLOB_CMD[11] = 1 (DIN = 0xBF08) to start a manual capture

sequence. The manual capture starts immediately after the last bit

clocks into DIN (16th SCLK rising edge). Other configurations may

require writing to both bytes.

SPI READ COMMANDS

A single register read requires two 16-bit SPI cycles that also use

the bit assignments in Figure 12. The first sequence sets R/W = 0

and communicates the target address (Bits[A6:A0]). Bits[D7:D0]

are don’t care bits for a read DIN sequence. DOUT clocks out the

requested register contents during the second sequence. The

second sequence can also use DIN to set up the next read. Figure 11

provides a signal diagram for all four SPI signals while reading

the PROD_ID register (see Table 63) pattern. In this diagram,

DIN = 0x5600 and DOUT reflect the decimal equivalent of 16,227.

record storage, recording mode, and power management.

RECORDING MODES

REC_CTRL[1:0] provides three modes for triggering: (1) manual,

(2) automatic, and (3) manual time domain. The manual and

automatic modes produce FFT events, which include data

collection, filtering, windowing, FFT analysis, and record

storage (if selected). The manual time domain mode produces

time-domain data in the buffer. All three modes require an

external trigger, using either the SPI interface or one of the

auxiliary digital I/O lines, DIO1 or DIO2. For the SPI external

trigger option, set GLOB_CMD[11] = 1 (DIN = 0x3F08). For

the digital I/O option, use the DIO_CTRL register (see

Table 59) to configure either DIO1 or DIO2 as an external

trigger input.

For example, set DIO_CTRL[7:0] = 0x2F (DIN = 0xB62F) to

configure DIO2 as a positive external trigger input and

maintain the DIO1 factory default configuration as a positive

busy indicator. In manual mode, the start command triggers a

recording for an averaged FFT and stops after the recording is

complete. In automatic mode, the start command executes a

recording, and a timer continues to trigger recordings based on

the record period setting in REC_PRD (see Table 11).

POWER-DOWN

Set GLOB_CMD[1] = 1 (DIN = 0xBE02) to power down the

ADIS16227. To reduce power consumption, set REC_CTRL[7]

= 1 to automatically power down after a record has completed.

Toggle the CS line from high to low to wake the device up and

place it in an idle state, where it waits for the next command.

When configured as an external trigger option, toggling DIO1

or DIO2 can wake the device up as well. Using DIO1 or DIO2

for this purpose avoids the potential for multiple devices

contending for DOUT when waking up with the CS line

approach. After completing the record cycle, the device remains

awake. Use GLOB_CMD[1] to put it back to sleep after reading

the record data.

RECORD STORAGE MODE

After the ADIS16227 finishes processing FFT data, it stores the

data into the FFT buffer, where it is available for external access

using the SPI and x_BUF registers. REC_CTRL[3:2] provides

programmable conditions for writing buffer data into the FFT

records, which are in nonvolatile flash memory locations. Set

REC_CTRL[3:2] = 01 to store FFT buffer data into the flash

memory records only when an alarm condition is met. Set

REC_CTRL[3:2] = 10 to store every set of FFT data into the

flash memory locations. The flash memory record provides

space for a total of 16 records. Each record stored in flash

memory contains a header and frequency domain (FFT) data

from all three axes (x, y, and z). When all 16 records are full,

new records do not load into the flash memory. The

REC_CNTR register (see Table 13) provides a running count

for the number of records that are stored. Set GLOB_CMD[8] =

1 (DIN = 0xBF01) to clear all of the records in flash memory.

SAMPLE RATE OPTIONS

The analog-to-digital converter (ADC) samples each accelero-

meter sensor at a rate of 100.2 kSPS (fs). REC_CTRL[11:8] provide

four different sample rate options for FFT analysis: SR0 (fs),

SR1(fs ÷ 8), SR2 (fs ÷ 64), and SR3 (fs ÷ 512). The reduced rates

come from a decimation filter, which reduces the bandwidth

and bin widths. See Figure 13 for the filter location in the signal

processing diagram and Table 14 for the performance trade-offs

associated with each sample rate setting.

Table 15 provides the data sampling time (TS) for each sample

rate setting. This represents the time it takes to record data for

all three axes of vibration data.

Sample Rate Setting Sample Time (ms), TS

SR0, REC_CTRL[8] = 1 5.27

SR1, REC_CTRL[9] = 1 42.15

SR2, REC_CTRL[10] = 1 337.17

SR3, REC_CTRL[11] = 1 2697.39

If more than one sample rate setting is active in REC_CTRL[11:8],

the sample rate setting automatically updates after each FFT

event and waits for the next trigger input. The order of priority

starts with the highest sample rate enabled and works toward the

lowest after each REC_CTRL[11:8] write cycle. When used in

conjunction with automatic trigger mode and record storage,

FFT analysis for each sample rate option requires no further

user inputs, except for collecting the data. Depending on the

number of FFT averages, the time period between each sample

rate selection may be quite large. Note that selecting multiple

sample rates reduces the number of records available for each

sample rate setting, as shown in Table 16.

WINDOWING OPTIONS

REC_CTRL[13:12] provide three options for pre-FFT

windowing of time data. For example, set REC_CTRL[13:12] =

01 to use the Hanning window, which offers the best amplitude

resolution of the peaks between frequency bins and minimal

broadening of peak amplitudes. The rectangular and flat top

windows are also available because they are common windowing

options for vibration monitoring. The flat top window provides

accurate amplitude resolution with a trade-off of broadening

the peak amplitudes.

RANGE

REC_CTRL[5:4] provide four range options for scaling

acceleration data prior to the FFT analysis stage. For example,

set REC_CTRL[5:4] = 10 to set the peak acceleration (AMAX) to

5 g. See Table 17 for the resolution associated with each setting

and Figure 13 for the location of this operation in the signal

flow diagram.

OFFSET CORRECTION

The x_NULL registers (see Table 18) contain the offset

correction factors generated when using the internal, autonull

command. They represent the KO factor in Figure 13 and follow

the digital format in Table 18. Set GLOB_CMD[0] =1 (DIN =

0xBE01) and wait for 681 ms to execute this function.

FFT AVERAGING

The FFT averaging function records a programmable number

of FFTs and combines them into a single, averaged FFT record.

This function is useful in reducing the variation of the FFT

noise floor, which enables detection of lower vibration levels. To

enable this function, write the number of averages to FFT_AVG.

Setting FFT_AVG = 0x0000 has the same effect as setting

FFT_AVG = 0x0001: no averaging. Setting FFT_AVG ≥ 0x0100

results in a setting of 256. Therefore, set FFT_AVG[15:8] = 0x01

(DIN = 0x8F01) to establish the maximum average setting of

256. Another example configuration is to set FFT_AVG =

0x00F0 (DIN = 0x8F00, DIN = 0x8EF0) to establish an average

setting of 240.

SPECTRAL ALARMS

The alarm function offers six spectral bands for alarm

detection. Each spectral band has high and low frequency

definitions, along with two different trigger thresholds (Alarm 1

and Alarm 2) for each accelerometer axis. Table 21 provides a

summary of each register used to configure the alarm function.

ALARM DEFINITION

The alarm function provides six programmable spectral bands,

as shown in Figure 14. Each spectral alarm band has lower and

upper frequency definitions for all four sample rate options. It

also has two independent trigger level settings, which are useful

for systems that value warning and fault condition indicators.

Select the spectral band for configuration by writing its number

(1 to 6) to ALM_PNTR[2:0] (see Table 23). Then, select the

sample rate setting using ALM_PNTR[9:8]. This number

represents a binary number, which corresponds to the x in the

SRx sample rates settings associated with REC_CTRL[11:8] (see

Table 10). For example set ALM_PNTR[7:0] = 0x05 (DIN =

0xB005) to select Alarm Spectral Band 5 and set

ALM_PNTR[15:8] =

0x02 (DIN = 0xB102) to select the SR2 sample rate option

from Table 14, 1,566 SPS.

Alarm Band Frequency Definitions

After the spectral band and sample rate settings are set,

program the lower and upper frequency boundaries by writing

their bin numbers to the ALM_F_LOW (see Table 24) and

ALM_F_HIGH (see Tabl e 25) registers. Use the bin width

definitions in Table 14 to convert a frequency into a bin number

for this definition. Calculate the bin number by dividing the

frequency by the bin width associated with the sample rate

setting. For example, 3400 Hz, divided by 196 Hz/bin (SR0

setting), rounded to the nearest integer, is equal to 17, or 0x12.

Therefore, set ALM_F_LOW[7:0] = 0x11 (DIN = 0xA011) to

establish 3400 Hz as the lower frequency for the SR0 sample

rate setting.

Alarm Trigger Settings

The ALM_x_MAG1 and ALM_x_MAG2 registers provide two

independent trigger settings for all three axes of acceleration

data. They use the data format established by the range setting

in REC_CTRL[5:4] and recording mode in REC_CTRL[1:0].

For example, when using the 0 g to 1 g mode for FFT analysis,

3277 LSB is equivalent to 500.07 mg. To set the critical alarm to

500.07 mg when using the 0 g to 1 g range option in REC_CTRL2

for FFT records, set ALM_X_MAG2 = 0x0CCD (DIN = 0xAD0C,

0xACCD). See Table 10 and Table 17 for more information on

formatting each trigger level. Note that trigger settings associated

with Alarm 2 should be greater than the trigger settings for

Alarm 1. In other words, the alarm magnitude settings should

meet the following criteria:

ALM_X_MAG2 > ALM_X_MAG1

ALM_Y_MAG2 > ALM_Y_MAG1

ALM_Z_MAG2 > ALM_Z_MAG1

Before configuring the spectral alarm registers, clear their

current contents by setting GLOB_CMD[9] = 1 (DIN = 0xBF02).

After completing the spectral alarm band definitions, enable the

settings by setting GLOB_CMD[12] = 1 (DIN = 0xBF10). The

device ignores the save command if any of these locations have

already been written to.

ALARM INDICATOR SIGNALS

DIO_CTRL[5:2] and ALM_CTRL[6] provide controls for

establishing DIO1 and DIO2 as dedicated alarm output indicator

signals. Use DIO_CTRL[5:2] to select Alarm function for DIO1

and/or DIO2; then set ALM_CTRL[6] = 1 to enable DIO1 to

serve as an Alarm 1 indicator and DIO2 as an Alarm 2 indicator.

This setting establishes DIO1 to indicate Alarm 1 (warning)

conditions and DIO2 to indicate Alarm 2 (critical) conditions.

ALARM FLAGS AND CONDITIONS

The FFT header (see Table 52) contains both generic alarm flags

(DIAG_STAT[13:8] (see Table 58) and spectral band-specific

alarm flags (ALM_x_STAT, see Table 33, Table 34 and Table 35).

The FFT header also contains magnitude (ALM_x_PEAK, see

Table 36, Table 37 and Table 38) and frequency information

(ALM_x_FREQ, see Table 39, Table 40, and Table 41) associated

with the highest magnitude of vibration content in the record.

ALARM STATUS

READING DATA FROM THE DATA BUFFER

After completing an FFT event and updating the data buffer, the

ADIS16227 loads the first data samples from the data buffer

into the x_BUF registers (see Table 45) and sets the buffer index

pointer (BUF_PNTR) to 0x0000. The index pointer determines

which data samples load into the x_BUF registers. For example,

writing 0x009F to the BUF_PNTR register (DIN = 0x9100, DIN

= 0x909F) causes the 160th sample in each data buffer location

to load into the x_BUF registers. The index pointer increments

with every x_BUF read command, which causes the next set

of capture data to load into each capture buffer register auto-

matically. This enables a process-efficient method for reading all

256 samples in a record, using sequential reads commands,

without having to manipulate BUF_PNTR.

ACCESSING FFT RECORD DATA

The FFT records provide flash memory storage for FFT data.

The REC_PNTR register (see Table 44) and record retrieve

command in GLOB_CMD[13] (see Table 57) provide access to

the FFT records, as shown in Figure 16. For example, set

REC_PNTR[7:0] = 0x0A (DIN = 0x920A) and GLOB_CMD[13]

= 1 (DIN = 0xBF20) to load FFT Record 10 in the FFT buffer

for SPI/register access.

DATA FORMAT

Table 45 provides the bit assignments for the x_BUF registers.

The acceleration data format depends on the range scale and

recording mode settings in REC_CTRL. See Table 10 for

configuration details and Table 17 for the scale factors

associated with each setting. Table 46 provides some data

formatting examples for FFT mode, and Table 47 offers some

data formatting examples for the16-bit twos complement

format used in manual time mode.

POWER SUPPLY/TEMPERATURE

During every acceleration recording process, the ADIS16227 also

measures power supply and internal temperature. It takes a

5.12 ms record of power supply measurements at a sample rate

of 50 kHz and takes 64 samples of internal temperature data over

a period of 1.7 ms. The average of the power supply and internal

temperature loads into the SUPPLY_OUT and TEMP_OUT

registers, respectively.

GLOBAL COMMANDS

The GLOB_CMD register provides an array of single-write

commands for convenience. Setting the assigned bit (see Table

57) to 1 activates each function. When the function completes,

the bit restores itself to 0. For example, clear the capture buffers by

setting GLOB_CMD[8] = 1 (DIN = 0xBF01). All of the commands

in the GLOB_CMD register require the power supply be within

normal limits for the execution times listed in Table 57.

STATUS/ERROR FLAGS

The DIAG_STAT register (see Table 58) provides a number

of status/error flags that reflect the conditions observed in a

recording during SPI communication and diagnostic tests. A

1 indicates an error condition, and all of the error flags are

sticky, which means that they remain until they are reset by

setting GLOB_CMD[4] = 1 (DIN = 0xBE10) or by starting a

new recording event. DIAG_STAT[14:8] indicates which

ALM_x_MAGx thresholds were exceeded during a recording

event. The flag in DIAG_STAT[3] indicates that the total

number of SCLK clocks is not a multiple of 16.

OPERATION MANAGMENT

The ADIS16227 SPI port supports two different communi-

cation commands while it is processing data or executing a

command associated with the GLOB_CMD register: reading

DIAG_STAT (DIN = 0x3C00) and the escape code (DIN =

0xE8E8). The SPI ignores all other commands when the

processor is busy.

Software Busy Indicator

Use the DIAG_STAT read command to poll DIAG_STAT[7],

which is equal to 0 when the processor is busy and equal to

1 when the processor is idle and data is ready for SPI commu-

nications.

OBSOLETE

Data Sheet ADIS16227

Rev. B | Page 19 of 24

Software Escape Code

The only SPI command available when the processor is busy

is the escape code, which is 0xE8E8. Send this command in a

repeating pattern, with a small delay between each write cycle,

to the DIN pin, while monitoring DIAG_STAT[7]. The follow-

ing code example illustrates this process:

DIAG_STAT = 0;

DIAG_STAT = read_reg(0x3C);

while ((DIAG_STAT & 0x0080) == 0)

{

write_reg(0xE8E8)

delay_us(50)

DIAG_STAT = read_reg(0x3C)

}

INPUT/OUTPUT FUNCTIONS

The DIO_CTRL register (see Table 59) provides configuration

control options for the two digital I/O lines, DIO1 and DIO2.

Busy Indicator

The busy indicator is an output signal that indicates internal

processor activity. This signal is active during data recording events

or internal processing (GLOB_CMD functions, for example). The

factory default setting for DIO_CTRL sets DIO1 as a positive,

active high, busy indicator signal. When configured in this

manner, use this signal to alert the master processor to read

data from data buffers.

Trigger Input

The trigger function provides an input pin for starting record

events with a signal pulse. Set DIO_CTRL[7:0] = 0x2F (DIN =

0xB62F) to configure DIO2 as a positive trigger input and keep

DIO1 as a busy indicator. To start a trigger, the trigger input signal

must transition from low to high and then from high to low. The

recording process starts on the high-to-low transition, as shown

in Figure 17, and the pulse duration must be at least 2.6 µs.

Figure 17. Manual Trigger/Busy Indicator Sequence Example

Alarm Indicator

DIO_CTRL[5:2] provide controls for establishing DIO1 and/or

DIO2 as a general alarm output indicator, which goes active when

any of the flags in DIAG_STAT[13:8] are active. For example, set

DIO_CTRL[7:0] = 0x12 (DIN = 0xB612) to configure DIO2 as

a generic alarm indicator with an active high polarity.

ALM_CTRL[6] (see Table 22) provides an additional control,

which enables DIO2 to reflect Alarm 2 and DIO1 to reflect Alarm 1

when they are selected as alarm indicators in DIO_CTRL[5:2]. For

example, set DIO_CTRL[7:0] = 0x17 (DIN = 0xB617) and set

ALM_CTRL[6] = 1 (DIN = 0xB440) to establish DIO2 as an active-

high Alarm 2 indicator and DIO1 as an active-high Alarm 1

indicator. Set GLOB_CMD[4] = 1 (DIN = 0xBE10) to clear the

DIAG_STAT error flags and restore the alarm indicator signal to

its inactive state.

FLASH MEMORY MANAGEMENT

Set GLOB_CMD[5] = 1 (DIN = 0xBE20) to run an internal

checksum test on the flash memory, which reports a pass/fail

result to DIAG_STAT[6]. The FLASH_CNT register (see Table 61)

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

MOUNTING GUIDELINES

The ADIS16227 provides a threaded hole for a 10-32 UNF

machine screw. This hole is 9 mm deep, and the tapped depth

is 7 mm. Use a torque of 15 inch-pounds when tightening the

10-32 mounting fastener and make sure that the fastener doesn’t

bottom-out in the ADIS16227 when tightening.

GETTING STARTED

When the power supply voltage of the ADIS16227 reaches 3.15 V, it

executes a start-up sequence that places the device in manual

FFT mode. The following code example initiates a manual data

recording by setting GLOB_CMD[11] = 1 (DIN = 0xBF08) and

reads all 256 samples in the x-axis acceleration buffer, using DIN =

0x1400. The data from the first spi_reg_read is not valid because

this command starts the process. The second spi_reg_read

command (the first read inside the embedded for loop) produces

the first valid data. This code sequence produces CS, SCLK, and

DIN signals similar to the ones shown in Figure 11.

spi_write(BF08h);

delay 30ms;

Data(0) = spi_reg_read(14h);

For n = 0 to 255

Data(n) = spi_reg_read(14h);

n = n + 1;

end

INTERFACE BOARD

The ADIS16227/PCBZ provides the ADIS16227 on a small

printed circuit board (PCB) that simplifies the connection to an

existing processor system. A single 10-32 machine screw (Fastener

Express, FHS1106-4I2) secures the ADIS16227CMLZ to the

interface board. The first set of mounting holes on the interface

boards is in the four corners of the PCB and provides clearance for 4-

40 machine screws. The second set of mounting holes provides a

pattern that matches the ADISUSBZ evaluation system, using M2

× 0.4 mm machine screws. These boards are made of IS410

material and are 0.063 inches thick. The J1 connector uses Pin 1

through Pin 12 in this pattern. Pin 13 and Pin 14 are for future

expansion, but they also provide convenient probe points for the

DIO1 and DIO2 signals. The connector is a dual row, 2 mm

(pitch) connector that works with a number of ribbon cable

systems, including 3M Part Number 152212-0100-GB (ribbon-

crimp connector) and 3M Part Number 3625/12 (ribbon cable).

The LEDs (D1 and D2) provide visual indication of the DIO1

and DIO2 signals.
