All data after bit 5 is “don’t care.” Conversion data is received starting from
bit 7. (MSB first) Data received before this is “don’t care.”

For R1, the ADC (U16) should only be used when U32 is enabled.
Compact Flash Interface

Print Controller
The print controller circuit is based on a reference design from Seiko
Instruments. The document, “IFV001-01B Interface Board Technical
Reference” from Seiko provides many details on how to control the print
engine. This document will highlight the design differences from the Seiko
reference design.

GPIO Configuration
The U1 GPIO pins used for the print controller should be configured as
shown:
shown:
• Active outputs – PE14-PE21, PE24, PE26-PE28, PE30
• Inputs – PA3, PB24
All of the above should be configured as GPIO except PB24, which should
be assigned to its dedicated peripheral function, SMC receive.

5V Power Enable
The print controller and print head logic supply is 5 V and is sourced from
linear regulator U32. U32 has an enable pin that allows the microprocessor
to disconnect power to the print controller. To conserve power while not
printing, U1 should disable the 5 V regulator by setting PC_PWR_EN
(PE24) to output low.
