4.1 Main µC Software Development

The built-in API library provides an interface and controls via an external host controller using a standard SPI. The built-in firmware supports documented commands.

Note: A list of the documented commands is available in the ATA8510/15 Industrial User's Guide.

The technical documentation consists of all the required timings, the usage of the SPI and a detailed technical description of all implemented features. In addition, the register descriptions and further useful technical details are addressed. Examples for the use of the SPI and handling of the ATA8510 transceiver can be obtained from the tool pack available in the www.microchip.com/ATA8510.
