OPERATION
The following paragraph describes the operation of the ISL40 device.
3.1
Protocol
The device responds to five types of LIN messages: Write, Read, Read Change, Sleep and Change
Frequency.
When receiving a Write message with the correct ID, the device outputs to its Output pins the data
indicated by the message.
When receiving a Read massage with the correct ID, the device responds to the LIN message with the
content of it’s Input pins followed by the appropriate checksum according to LIN 2.0 protocol.
When receiving a Read Change massage with the correct ID, the device responds to the LIN message
with the first detected change on its input pins followed by the appropriate checksum according to LIN
2.0 protocol.
When receiving a Sleep message the device enters into low power-consumption sleep mode. A wakeup
message generated by the master or by any of the slaves, wakes up all the devices on the network.
When receiving Change-Frequency message, the device switch between its two selected frequencies.
3.1.1
Message Construction
The construction of the five types of messages is as follows:
Write message:
The Write message consists of five bytes - sync break, sync field, Identifier, data and checksum.
The identifier byte begins with the device four ID bits, followed by 00 bits and 2 protection bits.
If checksum calculation is successful, the data byte content is transferred to the corresponding output
pins. If the device is set to 4 outputs, the four low significant bits (sent first) are transferred to the four
output SigOx pins. Otherwise, all 8 bits are transferred. The checksum is calculated according to LIN2.0
specifications. Figure 3.1 shows a generic write message.

Read message:
The read message gets the status of the ISL40 input pins.
The Read command can either get 4 input pins and 4 MSB’s of the output pins or 8 input pins status
according to the device setup pins. The Read command can request the current state of the input pins
or detect any change caused on the pins since the last read command. If the ISL40 configured to have
only 4 input pins, the 4 most significant bits of the data byte would be a read back of the 4 MSB’s output
pins.
