Interfacing serial peripheral connecter with parallel bus

AI Thread Summary
To connect an ADIS16209CCCZ inclinometer with a DT9816 data acquisition module, a direct interface between the SPI and the parallel bus is needed. Bypassing a microcontroller can be achieved using a UART device, which facilitates communication between the two different protocols. Various resources are available online that explain how to implement this solution effectively. Ensuring compatibility between the devices is crucial for successful data transfer. This approach can streamline the integration process for the inclinometer with the DAQ module.

I'm not 100% sure that this is in the right board, but...

I need to attach an inclinometer to a data translation board. The DAQ module in question is a DT9816 from Data Translation, and in inclinometers one of those being looked at is the ADIS16209CCCZ from Analog Devices. This has a serial peripheral interface (SPI) connecter, and is typically designed to be hooked up to a microcontroller. I was wondering if anybody knew of any ways to bypass using a microcontroller, e.g. if there is a piece of equipment I could put between the two that will interface the inclinometer's SPI with the parallel buses on the DAQ module.

Thanks.

Thread 'Query on Isentropic relationships (such as PV^gamma = constant)'

Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...

Thread 'How can I find the cleanout for my building drain?'

I am a long distance truck driver, but I recently completed a plumbing program with Stratford Career Institute. In the chapter of my textbook Repairing DWV Systems, the author says that if there is a clog in the building drain, one can clear out the clog by using a snake augur or maybe some other type of tool into the cleanout for the building drain. The author said that the cleanout for the building drain is usually near the stack. I live in a duplex townhouse. Just out of curiosity, I...
