Please refer to one of the following documents, which are located in the third-party folder of the MPLAB Harmony installation, for information on obtaining an evaluation license for your device: • OpenRTOS Click Thru Eval License PIC32MXxx.pdf • OpenRTOS Click Thru Eval License PIC32MZxx.pdf Micriµm All Micriµm µC/OS-III demonstrations have added the crt0.S "C" run-time library start-up file to the project. The demonstration sets the linker option "do not link startup code". This is necessary for Micriµm µC/OS-III to work correctly with PIC32 devices as the general exception vector is located in crt0.S. Micriµm µC/OS-III overrides this interrupt source (general exception handler) to perform OS-specific functionality. If the user wants to implement their own application using Micriµm µC/OS-III and a PIC32 device, they must add the crt0.S file to their project and override the general exception interrupt vector. See the current RTOS examples for this implementation. A crt0.S template file can be found in the MPLAB XC32 C/C++ Compiler installation directory: ..\Microchip\xc32\\pic32-libs\libpic32. Important!

It is the user's responsibility to obtain information about, and comply with the terms of, any applicable licenses. Getting Started This topic describes how to get started after installing the iREASONING Networks MIB Browser. Description Once your browser installation has been completed, perform the following steps: 1. Copy the mchip.mib file to the MIB file directory of your browser (e.g., C:\Program Files\ireasoning\mibbrowser\mibs). 2. Open the MIB Browser and select File>Load MIBs, and select the mchip.mib, RFC1213.mib, and SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB.mib (If SNMPv3 server is enabled) files. The Microchip MIB directory will be displayed in the SNMP MIB pane. The minimum set of RFC 1213 MIB2 variables that are required to identify the Microchip node as an SNMP node to the network are implemented. These variables can be accessed by any SNMP browser with a "public" type community name. Refer to the Microchip application note, AN870 "SNMP V2c Agent for Microchip TCP/IP Stack" (DS00000870) for more details on the MIB scripts, community names, and demonstration SNMP MIB variable tree structure. The following figure shows the variables implemented in the Microchip SNMP Agent. The ASN.1 format mchip.mib file is defined with a private variable tree structure for the MIB variables. Also the mchip.mib file is added with a number of OIDs, which can be accessed only with a SNMPv3 request. The browser can access every variable in the MIB database provided the community name matches. The access to the MIB variables is restricted to the type of the request. The RFC1213 MIB variables can be accessed with a SNMPv2c/v3 request. However, the SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB.mib variables can only be accessed with a SNMPv3 request if the credentials are matched and the message is authenticated. To modify these MIB variables, the corresponding changes must be made to both MIB scripts (snmp.mib and mchip.mib). The following figure shows the Microchip private MIB variable tree structure in the browser. Volume VI: Third-Party Products iREASONING Networks MIB Browser Getting Started © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 8 Configuring the Browser This topic describes how to configure the iREASONING Networks MIB Browser for use with the TCP/IP SNMP demonstrations. Description To configure the MIB browser: 1. Select the 'Advanced' tab in the browser. The following configuration window appears: 2. If V2c services are required, select SNMP version V2c, and configure the Read and Write community to the browser. • The V2c agent will respond only to the queries from SNMP MIB browsers using the same community. That is, the V2c agent and the browser should be members of the same community. • If the community fields are left blank, the manager sends the SNMP request with the community name as "public" • The V2c agent is configured by default with three Read communities ("public", "read", " ") and three Write communities ("private","write","public") • The default maximum community length is 8 characters • As the default communities also contain the "public" community name, the agent will respond to all of the browsers requesting the "public" community • At run time, the community names can be dynamically configured using the HTTP interface for SNMP community name configuration Volume VI: Third-Party Products iREASONING Networks MIB Browser Configuring the Browser © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 9 If the V2c agent receives an SNMP request with an unknown community name, the agent will generate an Authentication trap. The V2c agent's multiple community support feature enables the user application to provide limited access to the requesting browser based on the community name used by the browser to access the MIB database variables of the agent. 3. If SNMPv3 services are required, select the SNMP Version as 'V3' in the 'Advanced' tab of the SNMP MIB Browser. The following configuration window appears: 4. If SNMPv3 services are required, the SNMPv3 browser is required to be configured with the user name, authentication and privacy password, message authentication hash type, privacy protocol type. The SNMP server will respond only if one of the user credentials and user security parameters in the following table is configured at the manager. This table is stored in the global structure with the SNMPv3 server stack. The SNMPv3 server would only respond if the request credentials of the MIB browser matches to that of the stored user database of the SNMP server. USER 1 USER 2 USER 3 USM User microchip SnmpAdmin root Security Level auth, priv auth, no priv no auth, no priv Auth Algorithm MD5 SHA1 N/A Auth Password auth12345 ChandlerUS N/A Privacy Algorithm AES N/A N/A Privacy Password priv12345 N/A N/A 5. The Microchip SNMPv3 stack does support only one Context Engine ID with the server. Leave the "Context Name" option in the "Advanced" tab empty. It is ignored on the server. 6. According to the user and the auth and privacy protocols configured with the SNMP browser, the UDP authenticated and encrypted message would be exchanged between server and the client. • If the USER 1 values, as shown in the table, are configured in the MIB browser, the data exchange between the client and server is encrypted and authenticated. The PDU can be captured in the Ethernet packet sniffer like WireShark and examined. As the data is encrypted and authenticated, the data integrity and the privacy is achieved. • If the USER 2 values, as shown in the table, are configured in the MIB browser, the data exchange between the client and server is authenticated. The data integrity will be checked once the data is received at either end. The message authentication mechanism protects from the possible data sniffing and modification threat, and also guarantees that the data is received from the authenticated and guaranteed source. • If the USER3 values, as shown in the table, are configured in the MIB browser, the data exchange between the client and server is neither authenticated nor encrypted. Considering the three USER configurations, if the SNMP server is to be accessed over WAN in the Internet cloud, the data should be encrypted and authenticated to have the highest level of data privacy and integrity. 7. Configure the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the SNMP agent to the 'Address field'. Volume VI: Third-Party Products iREASONING Networks MIB Browser Configuring the Browser © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 10 8. Select the variable to be accessed from the agent MIB database from the SNMP MIBs pane. The OID of the selected variable can be seen in the OID tab in the following figure. 9. Select the SNMP Get operation from the operations tab. 10. The SNMPv3 server demonstration MIB is included with RFC1213 SNMPv2 MIB variables, private MIB variables, and the SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB variables. If the SNMPv2C request with a validated community name is generated from the MIB Browser, only a limited set of variables is accessed. The access to the MIB variables is restricted to the type of SNMP version request received. If the SNMPv3 request with correct credentials is generated from the MIB Browser, the complete MIB access is provided. 11. The user will need to decide which part of the MIB should be required to be restricted depending upon the SNMP version type. The MIB design is the one of the important steps in deciding the MIB tree structure and the variable to be placed accordingly. 12. The SNMP server demonstration MIB is added with a static variable OID named "snmpv3PvtObject" with a OID value as 43.6.1.4.1.17095.6.1. This variable is placed in the private branch of the MIB by creating an independent branch. All of the other variables in the private branch are accessible by a SNMPv2c request. The access to this static variable is restricted by the SNMP version type. Only the SNMPv3 request with correct credentials can access this variable. SNMP Operations This topic describes the SNMP operations that can be used with the TCP/IP SNMP demonstrations. Get Operation Get operation description. Description 1. Select the "Advanced" tab and configure the SNMP version to '1' and the Read community to "public". 2. Select "Get" from the operations menu. 3. Select the sysDescr variable from the MIB Tree. The Result Table displays the sysDescr variable information. Repeat this procedure for any MIB variable. For SNMP V2c, repeat the same procedure, substituting '2' in place of '1' in the version configuration. As explained earlier, the V2c agent is configured with three Read and Write community defaults. Configure the browser to use any of these communities and try accessing the MIB variables. You should be able to access some of the MIB variables even with the Read Community configured as any of the 'write' community defaults. For Get operations, if the Read or Write community matches, the agent processes the request. Volume VI: Third-Party Products iREASONING Networks MIB Browser SNMP Operations © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 11 For Set operations, the received community names must match any of the 'write' community names. For SNMP V3, substitute '3' in place of '1' in the version configuration in the "Advanced" tab. Configure the other user based auth and priv credentials as explained in the "MIB Browsers" section. With appropriate credentials, all the MIB variables are accessible. Select any of the MIB variables in the MIB tree and do a GET operation. Get_Next Operation Get_Next operation description. Description 1. Repeat the process for the Get operation. 2. Select the sysDescr variable from the MIB tree, and then select "Get Next" from the operations menu. The result table will display the sysObjectID variable information. 3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for additional MIB variables to get the information for the corresponding next variable. 4. Set the SNMP MIB Browser version to v1/v2c. Try to access the private MIB variable "snmpv3PvtObject" with OID value as 43.6.1.4.1.17095.6.1. The access should be restricted. Set the version to V3, configure the credentials, again try a Get_Next operation for the same variable. The access should be granted. Get_Bulk Operation Get_Bulk operation description. Description This operation is supported in SNMPv2c and SNMPv3. Get_Bulk enables the collection of bulk information from the agent with a single request from the manager. 1. Configure the SNMP version to '2' or '3' in the SNMP browser. 2. If version is configured to '2', set the Read Community to 'public' or 'read.' 3. If version is configured to '3', configure the appropriate V3 credentials. 4. Select the sysDescr variable from the MIB tree. 5. Select the Get Bulk operation from the Operations menu. The default Non Repeaters and Max Repeaters values are '0' and '10', respectively, and get bulk configuration profile to change Non Repeaters and Max Repeaters parameters. The result table will display information for 10 MIB variables in a single request (if the Max Repetitions = 10 and Non Repeaters = 0 is configured). These variables are the lexicographical successors of the sysDescr variable. The number of variables that the agent will respond with can be Volume VI: Third-Party Products iREASONING Networks MIB Browser SNMP Operations © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 12 configured in the browser through the menu selections Tools > Options > Non-Repeaters and Tools > Options > Max-Repetitions. The Non-Repeaters and Max-Repetitions numbers are extracted by the SNMP agent from the received Get_Bulk request and the number of variables that will be included in the response PDU is calculated. for more information on calculating the number of variables, Non-Repeaters, and Max-Repetitions, refer to RFC 3416. Set Operation Set operation description. Description The Set command updates the variable information of the MIB database in the agent. The Set command can be performed only on those variables which are declared as 'READWRITE' in the MIB scripts, and only if the community name matches any one of the 'write' community names configured with the agent. 1. Select the ledD5 variable from the MIB tree. 2. Configure the SNMP version to '1' or '2.' Configure the Write Community to 'public', 'write', or 'private'. 3. If version is configured to '3', configure the appropriate V3 credentials. 4. Select 'Set' from the Operations menu and the SNMP SET window will pop up. Enter the value for the browser in the OID field as per the defined syntax of the mchip.mib and snmp.mib scripts. A success message will appear. A 'Get' operation for the same variable should now return the new 'Set' value for this variable. LED5 on the demonstration board should now be ON. Repeat the procedure to set LED5 to OFF. LED6 can also be set ON or OFF.

GUI and Touch Wrapper Library for SEGGER emWin This section provides information on the GUI and Touch Wrapper for SEGGER emWin. Introduction This section provides an introduction to the GUI and Touch wrapper for MPLAB Harmony compatibility with SEGGER emWin. Description The GUI and Touch Wrapper Library provides a wrapper to SEGGER emWin application code for the purpose of integrating the application code with MPLAB Harmony. The GUI and Touch Wrapper Library provides separate wrappers for GUI and Touch interface for the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. GUI Wrapper The GUI Wrapper can be used for integrating the dialog code generated by the emWin GUIBuilder utility with MPLAB Harmony. This wrapper also Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help GUI and Touch Wrapper Library for SEGGER © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 28 initializes the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library and maintains the state machine of the wrapper. It generates the templates for GUI and LCD configuration files required by the emWin application. Touch Wrapper The Touch Wrapper can be used for integrating the SEGGER emWin Touch interface with MPLAB Harmony. This wrapper interfaces the Messaging System Service Library with the emWin Touch interface and decodes the touch data from the Messaging System Service and encodes it as required by the emWin Touch interface. Using the Library This section describes the basic architecture of the GUI and Touch Wrapper Library and provides information and examples on how to use it. Description Interface Header File: emwin_gui_static.h and emwin_touch_static.h The interface to the GUI and Touch Wrapper Library is defined in the emwin_gui_static.h and emwin_touch_static.h header files. Any C language source (.c) file that uses the library should include emwin_gui_static.h and emwin_touch_static.h. The SEGGER emWin Graphics Library includes other header files located at /bin/framework/gfx/segger_emwin/inc and /apps//src/system_config//third_party/gfx/emwin/config. These two paths are required to be included into the project include path. Library Source Files The GUI and Touch Wrapper Library template files are provided in the /third_party/gfx/emwin/gui/templates and /third_party/gfx/emwin/touch/templates directory. The MPLAB Harmony Configurator (MHC) generates C source files using these template files within the application system_config folder. The templates folder may contain optional files and alternate implementations. Please refer to Configuring the Library for instructions on how to select optional features and to Building the Library for instructions on how to build the library. Abstraction Model This library provides an abstraction of the GUI and Touch Wrapper Library. This topic describes how that abstraction is modeled in the software and introduces the library interface. Description The GUI and Touch Wrapper Library interface defines a superset abstraction of the functionality provided by any specific implementation or configuration of the library. This topic describes how that abstraction is modeled in software and introduces the library's interface. Refer to Configuring the Library to determine the actual set of features that are supported for each configuration option. As shown in the following diagram, the GUI and Touch Wrapper Library uses services of the third-party SEGGER emWin Graphics Library and the MPLAB Harmony Messaging System Service Library. The GUI and Touch Wrapper Library writes to the display using the display controller driver. The display controller driver can be from the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library or from MPLAB Harmony. The Messaging System Service services the messages sent by the Touch System Service in First In First Out (FIFO) order. The Touch System Service Library encodes the touch commands from the touch data received from the Touch Controller Driver in MPLAB Harmony. GUI and Touch Wrapper Library Software Abstraction Model Library Overview The Library Interface functions are divided into various sub-sections, each of which interacts with one or more of the items identified in the abstraction model. Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help GUI and Touch Wrapper Library for SEGGER © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 29 Library Interface Section Description GUI Wrapper Functions Provides functions to initialize the GUI Wrapper as well as tasks and screen functions. Touch Wrapper Functions Provides functions for initializing the Touch Wrapper and creating a mail box. How the Library Works This section provides information on how the GUI and Touch Wrapper Library works. Description The following figure highlights the processes that the application must follow to use the GUI and Touch Wrapper Library. Initializing the GUI and Touch Wrappers Describes how to initialize the GUI Wrapper and Touch Wrapper. Description The application needs to initialize the GUI and Touch Wrapper Library. The library is initialized successfully by selecting the correct MHC configuration values. The GUI Wrapper requires the MHC configuration values for “Memory Block Size” and “Number of Screens” to be set. The Touch Wrapper requires the MHC configuration values for “System Message Service Instance” to be set. The following code shows an example of designing the data structure EMWIN_TOUCH_INIT and also shows how example usage of the emWin_TouchInitialize and emWin_GuiInitialize functions. EMWIN_TOUCH_INIT emWinTouchInitData; /* Set the Messaging System Service instance */ emWinTouchInitData.iSysMsg = SYS_MSG_0; /* Initialize the emWin Touch Wrapper */ emWin_TouchInitialize( (SYS_MODULE_INIT *)&emWinTouchInitData ); /* Initialize the emWin GUI Wrapper */ emWin_GuiInitialize(); Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help GUI and Touch Wrapper Library for SEGGER © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 30 Touch Wrapper Setup Describes how to set up the Touch Wrapper. Description After initializing the Touch Wrapper, the Messaging System Service Mail Box required by the Touch System Service needs to be created. To create the mail box, the user application needs to call the emWin_TouchMailBoxCreate function from the GUI and Touch Wrapper Library. The following code shows an example of creating the mail box using emWin_TouchMailBoxCreate. emWin_TouchMailBoxCreate(); GUI Wrapper Setup Describes how to set up the GUI Wrapper. Description After initializing the GUI Wrapper, it must be set up with the screen or dialog and resources code generated by the emWin tools. This may require initializing the screens parameters such as background color or font by registering the Screen Initialize function using the emWin_GuiScreenInitializeRegister function. After registering the Screen Initialize function, emWin screens or dialogs need to be registered using the emWin_GuiScreenRegister function. Please note the all register functions only perform the registration. The registered function is called at the appropriate occurrence of the state of the GUI Tasks state machine. To start drawing the screens or dialog a starting screen or dialog needs to be set using the emWin_GuiStartScreenSet function. The following code shows an example of setting up the GUI Wrapper. /* Create Screen/dialog function pointer array */ EMWIN_GUI_SCREEN_CREATE emWinScreenCreate[ EMWIN_GUI_NUM_SCREENS ] = { CreateScreen1, CreateScreen2, CreateScreen3 }; /* Screen Initialize Function */ void APP_ScreenInitialize ( void ) { GUI_SetBkColor(GUI_BLACK); GUI_Clear(); } /* Register Screen Initialize Function */ emWin_GuiScreenInitializeRegister( APP_ScreenInitialize ); /* Register Screen/dialog Initialize */ for( screenCount = 0; screenCount < EMWIN_GUI_NUM_SCREENS; screenCount++ ) { emWin_GuiScreenRegister( screenCount, emWinScreenCreate[screenCount]); } /* Set the start Screen/dialog as first screen */ emWin_GuiStartScreenSet( 0 ); GUI Wrapper Screen Change Describes how to change a screen using the GUI Wrapper. Description Once the GUI is set up, emWin_GuiTasks will call APIs to draw the screen, and based on events, the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library will redraw the screen. To draw a new screen based on the event, call the emWin_GuiScreenChange function. The following code shows an example of changing screen on event. /* Abstract of event code from GUIBuilder generated Screen/dialog */ switch(Id) { case ID_BUTTON_0: // Notifications sent by 'Next' switch(NCode) { case WM_NOTIFICATION_CLICKED: // USER START (Optionally insert code for reacting on notification message) // On click of next button set the next screen/dialog emWin_GuiScreenChange(SCREEN_2); // USER END Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help GUI and Touch Wrapper Library for SEGGER © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc.

Getting Started Refer to the Integrating SEGGER emWin and MPLAB Harmony section to get started with designing a GUI using the SEGGER emWin utilities and integrating the GUI with MPLAB Harmony. Configuration Files This section describes the methods and extent of the SEGGER emWin library configurability for the intended processor and application. Some configurations are decided at build time and are not user changeable while some runtime configuration is available to the users. Description The SEGGER emWin Graphics Library is Configurable. The library supports run-time configuration using library APIs and compile-time configuration using library macros. The precompiled library binary is provided in your installation of MPLAB Harmony with certain compile-time configurable macros set. In this case, only run-time configurable parameters can be modified. The configuration macros and APIs need to be defined or called in C header or source files. The configuration C header or source files are either to be manually created or will be generated by MPLAB Harmony Configurator (MHC), based on selection of MHC parameters. The compile-time parameters are located in the GUIConf.h and LCDConf.h header files. The run-time configuration of the library must be done in the C files GUIConf.c, LCDConf.c and GUI_Ex_X.c. If the SEGGER emWin Wrapper Library is selected in MHC, the configuration related files will be generated by the Wrapper Library. The following lists and describes the configuration files. GUI_EX_X.c This C file contains the placeholders of the required timing, logging, and multi-tasking related functions. These functions are called by the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. GUIConf.c This C file consists of the GUI_X_Config function, which is called by the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. The GUI_X_Config function is responsible for assigning a memory block to the memory management system. The memory block needs to be accessible 8-, 16-, and 32-bitwise. To pass the memory block to the SEGGER emWin internal memory management system, the GUI_X_Config function must call the GUI_ALLOC_AssignMemory function with the necessary arguments. The memory device uses the memory block passed by the Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 44 GUI_ALLOC_AssignMemory function. GUIConf.h This header file consists of GUI configuration macros. Please note that these macros are fixed at compile-time and and change in the macro values requires recompilation of the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. GUIConf.h is used to set the following parameters, which are required by the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library during compilation of the library: • Default font • Default color • Default background color • Memory device support • Multi-display or Multi-layer support • Number of layers • Multi-tasking support • Number of tasks • Mouse support • Default skinning support • Window manger support • Window manager transparency support • Rotation support • Cursor support • emWin SPY support • Debug level • Default Memory Copy function • Default Memory Set function • Maximum number of the PID events managed by the input buffer • Maximum number of the key events managed by the input buffer LCDConf.c This C file consists of the LCD_X_Config display configuration function and the display driver callback function, LCD_X_DisplayDriver. These functions are called by the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. The LCD_X_Config function sets the configuration of the display driver support and sets the run-time configurations for the LCD controller, as follows: • Set the number of buffers for multi-buffer support • Set the display driver parameters and callback functions • Set the color conversion callback functions • Set the custom callback routine for copy operation The LCD_X_DisplayDriver callback function is called by the driver for different tasks. The display driver passes commands for corresponding tasks and a pointer to the command parameters data. Typical commands for the display driver callback are: • LCD controller initialization • LCD ON/OFF • Set layer alpha • Set Color Lookup Table (CLUT) entries • Set virtual screen origin • Set layer position • Set layer size • Set layer visibility • Set video RAM address • Show buffer with given index LCDConf.h This header file consists of general configuration options required for compiling the display driver(s). Please note that these macros are fixed at compile-time and any change in the macro values requires recompilation of the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. LCDConf.h is used to set the following parameter, which is required by drivers from the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library during compilation of the library: • Display orientation Integrating SEGGER emWin and MPLAB Harmony This section describes the process of integrating SEGGER emWin application code with MPLAB Harmony. Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 45 Description The SEGGER emWin application code consists of GUI and graphics resources source code or binary files. The application code needs to be integrated with MPLAB Harmony to run PIC32-based hardware. The SEGGER emWin application code calls SEGGER emWin Graphics library APIs. The SEGGER emWin Graphics Library is a software library and is independent of the underlying hardware. With the help of SEGGER emWin Configuration Source code, MPLAB Harmony performs the I/O task of graphics data generated by SEGGER emWin application code. MPLAB Harmony also passes the pointer input device (PID) data to the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. The SEGGER emWin Graphics Library recommends implementation of various configuration files to configure the library and LCD interface. To run a SEGGER emWin application using MPLAB Harmony on a PIC32 device hardware platform, the following SEGGER emWin modules and MPLAB Harmony modules must be integrated: • SEGGER emWin application code (generated by SEGGER emWin utilites) • SEGGER emWin Configuration • SEGGER emWin Graphics Library • MPLAB Harmony Display Controller Driver • MPLAB Harmony Messaging System Service • MPLAB Harmony Touch System Service • MPLAB Harmony Touch Controller Driver There are two ways to integrate these modules. One way is to write custom integration wrapper code. Another way is to use the SEGGER emWin Wrapper Library. The Wrapper Library provides a mechanism to integrate these modules. The Wrapper Library is divided into two parts, the GUI Wrapper and the Touch Wrapper. GUI Wrapper The GUI Wrapper code integrates GUI-related SEGGER emWin application code with MPLAB Harmony. It has its own state machine to maintain the GUI states and integrates the following SEGGER emWin and MPLAB Harmony modules: • SEGGER emWin application code • SEGGER emWin configuration • SEGGER emWin Graphics Library • MPLAB Harmony Display Controller Driver Touch Wrapper The Touch Wrapper code integrates touch-related SEGGER emWin application code with MPLAB Harmony and integrates the following SEGGER emWin and MPLAB Harmony modules: • SEGGER emWin Application code • SEGGER emWin Graphics Library • MPLAB Harmony Messaging System Service • MPLAB Harmony Touch System Service • MPLAB Harmony Touch Controller Driver Refer to GUI and Touch Wrapper Library for SEGGER emWin for more information on SEGGER emWin Graphics Library integration with MPLAB Harmony using the Wrapper Library. For more information on adding content to the template, please refer to the "emWin Graphic Library with Graphical User Interface User and Reference Guide", document UM03001, which is available for download from the SEGGER website at: https://www.segger.com/downloads/emwin. Wrapper Libraries There are multiple ways to design and implement a GUI using the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. One way is to use the GUIBuilder utility. GUIBuilder can be used to design a GUI in form of dialogs. This utility also generates the C code implementing the designed dialogs. To integrate the generated dialog code and to maintain the state machine calling the dialog, MPLAB Harmony provides the GUI Wrapper Library. The GUI Wrapper library state machine performs: • Initialization of the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library • Initialization of the dialog • Calls the dialog based on events or external input Similarly, a Touch Wrapper Library is provided by MPLAB Harmony to: • Initialize the touch interface • Decode the touch input • Encode the touch input • Pass the encoded touch input to the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. The following diagram shows the work flow of SEGGER emWin and MPLAB Harmony integration using the GUI and Touch Wrapper Libraries: Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 46 As shown in the diagram, the emWin GUI files are passed to MPLAB Harmony application. The emWin GUI files may consist of dialog files generated by GUIBuilder and graphics resource files generated by other SEGGER emWin utilities. Please note that these files need to be manually copied and added to the MPLAB Harmony project. The C code from these files is integrated by calling the appropriate GUI wrapper API. The templates for emWin configuration files such as GUI_Ex_X.c, GUIConf.c, LCDConf.c, GUIConf.h, and LCDConf.h, are generated by the GUI Wrapper Library. These configuration files may need further editing to configure the GUI and LCD based on application requirements. The Touch Wrapper Library can be integrated with the MPLAB Harmony application by calling the appropriate Touch Wrapper API. Other MPLAB Harmony modules are integrated by selecting the corresponding BSP in MHC or by selecting required modules separately. MPLAB Harmony Configurator (MHC) This section provides information about configuring MHC for the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. Description To add the Touch wrapper Library, select “Use SEGGER emWin Touch Wrapper?” in MHC. To further configure the Touch Wrapper Library, set a suitable value for “System Message Service Instance” from the list of values in MHC. The value of the “System Message Service Instance” must be same as the instance of System Message Service selected in MHC for Touch input. Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 47 To add the GUI wrapper Library, select “Use SEGGER emWin GUI Wrapper?” in MHC. To further configure the GUI Wrapper Library, set suitable value for “Memory Block Size” and “Number of Screens”. The “Memory Block Size” configuration value represents the size of the memory block assigned to the SEGGER emWin internal memory management system. The memory block is created by defining a static array of a size defined by the “Memory Block Size” configuration value. This memory block is passed to the GUI_ALLOC_AssignMemory function within the GUIConf.c file. Please note the size is bytes and must be 8-, 16-, or 32-bit accessible. The “Number of Screens” configuration value is used to define the array size of dialog creation function. This array is used by the GUI Wrapper to call the appropriate dialog creation function based on the array index. Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 48 LCD Integration This topic provides information on LCD integration. Description LCD integration requires the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library to interact with the display controller driver driving the LCD. Generally, there are two types of display controllers: • Display controller with direct interface • Display controller with indirect interface In both cases, the display controller driver is integrated with the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library through the LCDConf.c C file and the LCDConf.h header file. The method of integrating the display controller driver varies with the type of display controller driver. For a display controller with a direct interface, the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library can directly write to and read from the video memory. The video memory can be within the system memory or within the display controller (CPU addressable using address bus). The information required when configuring the direct interface type display controller is about the address range and bus width to the display controller. The interface of the direct interface drivers needs to be created and linked with the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library using the GUI_DEVICE_CreateAndLink function. Further configured is needed by specifying the address of the video memory using the LCD_SetVRAMAddrEx function. If the driver supports more operations, these operations can be registered using the GUI_DEVICE_CreateAndLink function. To achieve this, pass the supported operations through the GUI_DEVICE_API parameter of the GUI_DEVICE_CreateAndLine function. The LCDConf.c code shows a simple example of the configuration of Microchip’s Low-Cost Controllerless (LCC) driver from MPLAB Harmony for PIC32 devices. The code example also shows that GUIDRV_LIN_16 driver functions and GUICC_M565 color conversion functions are registered using the GUI_DEVICE_CreateAndLink function. The GUIDRV_LIN_16 driver API structure is used as the MPLAB Harmony LCC driver structure, which is different from the driver structure required by the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. The LCC driver returns the video memory address, which is further passed to the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library using the LCD_SetVRAMAddrEx function. Other functions, such as LCD_SetSizeEx and LCD_SetVSizeEx, are used to configure the size of the visible area and virtual area in the vertical and horizontal direction. Configuring the display controller with indirect interface is more complex than with the direct interface. /********************************************************************* * * LCD_X_Config * * Purpose: * Called during the initialization process in order to set up the * display driver configuration. * */ void LCD_X_Config(void) { uintptr_t bufferAddr; GUI_DEVICE_CreateAndLink( GUIDRV_LIN_16, GUICC_M565, 0, 0); if (LCD_GetSwapXY()) { LCD_SetSizeEx (0, DISP_VER_RESOLUTION, DISP_HOR_RESOLUTION); LCD_SetVSizeEx(0, DISP_VER_RESOLUTION, DISP_HOR_RESOLUTION); } else { LCD_SetSizeEx (0, DISP_HOR_RESOLUTION, DISP_VER_RESOLUTION); LCD_SetVSizeEx(0, DISP_HOR_RESOLUTION, DISP_VER_RESOLUTION); } bufferAddr = (uintptr_t) DRV_GFX_LCC_GetBuffer(); LCD_SetVRAMAddrEx( 0, ( void * )bufferAddr ); return; } /********************************************************************* * * LCD_X_DisplayDriver * * Purpose: * To support the according task the routine needs to be adapted to * the display controller. * Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc.

Description The SEGGER emWin widgets respond to the pointer input device (PID) event based on the area where the event occurs. If the area falls within the widget area, the widget will react by modifying the predefined or custom widget properties. For example, if the user touches the touch screen within the area of an on-screen button, the button will change its properties, such as color or image. To do this, the location of touch needs to be registered with the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library on the touch event. The MPLAB Harmony Touch System Service will send a message on the touch event. The message will contain the description of the event and the coordinates of touch input. The messages from the Touch System Service need to be decoded and passed to the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. The implementation of decoding the touch message and registering the touch input with the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library is already provided in the SEGGER emWin Touch Wrapper Library. The following code example shows how the Touch Wrapper Library initializes the Messaging System Service by creating the mailbox, decodes the touch message from the Touch System Service, and registers the decoded touch input with the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. /* Initialize Message System Service by creating a Mail box */ void emWin_TouchMailBoxCreate( void ) { emWinTouchData.hMsgType = SYS_MSG_TypeCreate ( emWinTouchData.iSysMsg, TYPE_TOUCHSCREEN , 0 ); emWinTouchData.hMailbox = SYS_MSG_MailboxOpen( emWinTouchData.iSysMsg, (SYS_MSG_RECEIVE_CALLBACK) &_emWin_TouchMessageCallback ); SYS_MSG_MailboxMsgAdd( emWinTouchData.hMailbox, emWinTouchData.hMsgType ); return; } In the following code example, iSysMsg is the instance of the Messaging System Service selected in MHC. The _emWin_TouchMessageCallback function is a callback function that decodes the touch message and also registers the touch input using the GUI_TOUCH_StoreStateEx function. /* Decode Touch Message and register the touch input with SEGGER emWin Library */ static void _emWin_TouchMessageCallback( SYS_MSG_OBJECT *pMsg ) { GUI_PID_STATE * pidState = NULL; Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 50 if( NULL == pMsg ) { return; } if( TYPE_TOUCHSCREEN != pMsg->nMessageTypeID ) { return; } pidState = &emWinTouchData.pidState; if( EVENT_INVALID == pMsg->param0 || EVENT_MOVE == pMsg->param0 ) { return; } if( EVENT_PRESS == pMsg->param0 || EVENT_STILLPRESS == pMsg->param0 ) { pidState->Pressed = 1; } else { pidState->Pressed = 0; } pidState->Layer = 0; pidState->x = pMsg->param1; pidState->y = pMsg->param2; GUI_TOUCH_StoreStateEx( pidState ); return; } For more information on configuring the driver using LCDConf.c, please refer to the "emWin Graphic Library with Graphical User Interface User and Reference Guide", document UM03001, which is available for download from the SEGGER website at: https://www.segger.com/downloads/emwin. SEGGER emWin Event Handling This section describes the different ways of event handling between MPLAB Harmony and a SEGGER emWin application. Description There are different ways in which an application may need to react to different events. Events can be internal events generated by the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library on touch input, or it can be an external event triggered by a button press from the demonstration hardware. Event Handling Under Same Parent Widget This is a common scenario of a GUI, where an event generated by one widget, changes the behavior of another widget from the same screen. Both widgets are under the common parent dialog widget. To do this, on the notification of event from one widget, get the handle of the other widget and use relevant APIs to modify the behavior of the other widget. For example, we will take into account a parent widget as the Framewin widget. There are two widgets under the Framewin widget: Spinbox and Slider. The following figure shows the example screen of this scenario. After designing this GUI using GUIBuilder and saving it as C file, the generated C file needs to be edited to add the corresponding events. To Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 51 change the value of the spin box by moving the slider, do the following: 1. Open the C file generated by GUIBuilder in MPLAB X IDE. 2. Navigate to the _cbDialog function. 3. Below the notification message for the slider, WM_NOTIFICATION _VALUE_CHANGED, add the following code: /* Get the handle of the Slider */ hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(pMsg->hWin, ID_SLIDER_0); /* Get the current value of the Slider */ value = SLIDER_GetValue(hItem); /* Get the handle of the Spinbox */ hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(pMsg->hWin, ID_SPINBOX_0); /* Set the spinbox value with slider value */ SPINBOX_SetValue(hItem, value); The following code shows the updated dialog file. case ID_SLIDER_0: // Notifications sent by 'Slider' switch(NCode) { case WM_NOTIFICATION_CLICKED: // USER START (Optionally insert code for reacting on notification message) // USER END break; case WM_NOTIFICATION_RELEASED: // USER START (Optionally insert code for reacting on notification message) // USER END break; case WM_NOTIFICATION_VALUE_CHANGED: // USER START (Optionally insert code for reacting on notification message) /* Get the handle of the Slider */ hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(pMsg->hWin, ID_SLIDER_0); /* Get the current value of the Slider */ value = SLIDER_GetValue(hItem); /* Get the handle of the Spinbox */ hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(pMsg->hWin, ID_SPINBOX_0); /* Set the spinbox value with slider value */ SPINBOX_SetValue(hItem, value); // USER END break; // USER START (Optionally insert additional code for further notification handling) // USER END } break; Event Handling Under Different Parent Widgets This scenario occurs when a widget under one parent widget changes behavior of a widget under another parent widget. The two parent widgets are referred to as P1 and P2. The child widgets under parent widgets P1 and P2, are referred to as C1 and C2, respectively. There are two possible cases based on whether parent widget P2 exists at the time of an event generated by C1: • A) P2 parent widget does not exists • B) P2 parent widget exists For case A, the properties of child widget C2 need to be initialized based on the state of child widget C1. For case B, the properties of the child widget C2 can be changed on an event generated by child widget C1. The following section discusses both case A and case B in further detail. Parent Widget P2 Does Not Exist In this example, we have two parent widgets, Dialog1 widget and Dialog2 widget. The Dialog1 parent widget has two child widgets: a check box and a button. Similarly, the Dialog2 parent widget has two child widgets: text and a button. The following figures show examples of both dialogs: Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 52 In this example, to navigate from Dialog1 to Dialog2 the Next button from Dialog1 must be pressed. Similarly, to navigate from Dialog2 to Dialog1 the Previous button from Dialog2 must be pressed. The example starts with Dialog1. Dialog2 will be created only after pressing the Next button in Dialog1. The goal of this example is to change the text from Dialog2 using the check box from Dialog1. By default, the check box from Dialog1 will be clear (i.e., not checked). If the check box remains clear and demonstration is navigated from Dialog1 to Dialog2, the text will have the value value “Disabled”. If the check box from Dialog1 is selected (i.e., checked), on navigating from Dialog1 to Dialog2, the text will have the value “Enabled”. To achieve these results, the text widget from Dialog2 needs to be initialized with a value based on the state of the check box widget from Dialog1. During initialization of the text widget from Dialog2, if the state of the check box widget from Dialog1 is selected, set the value of the text from Dialog2 as “Enabled”; otherwise, set it as “Disabled”. The following code example shows the Dialog2 file generated by GUIBuilder. The file is further edited to add custom initialization code for the text widget. // // Initialization of 'Text_1' // hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(pMsg->hWin, ID_TEXT_0); TEXT_SetTextAlign(hItem, GUI_TA_HCENTER | GUI_TA_VCENTER); TEXT_SetTextColor(hItem, GUI_MAKE_COLOR(0x00000000)); TEXT_SetFont(hItem, GUI_FONT_13B_1); // USER START (Optionally insert additional code for further widget initialization) /* Get handle of checkbox widget from Dialog1 using Dialog1 handle and checkbox widget id. */ hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(hDialog1, 0x802); /* If checkbox is checked set text value to "Enabled" */ if(CHECKBOX_IsChecked(hItem)) { hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(pMsg->hWin, ID_TEXT_0); TEXT_SetText(hItem, "Enabled"); } /* else set text value to "Disabled" */ else { hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(pMsg->hWin, ID_TEXT_0); TEXT_SetText(hItem, "Disabled"); } Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 53 // USER END Parent widget P2 exists To describe this scenario, we will continue to use the previous example of Dialog1 and Dialog2. In the previous example, we have seen initialization of the properties widget C2 based on an event generated by widget C1, while P2 was not in existence at the time C1 generated the event. Both widgets, C1 and C2, are from different parent widgets, P1 and P2, respectively. Once the demonstration navigates from Dialog1 to Dialog2 for the first time, both parent widgets, Dialog1 and Dialog2, will come into existence and will be persistent until the widgets are destroyed. In such a case, to change the property of widget C2 based on an event generated by widget C1, the code required to change the property of widget C2 needs to be added under the widget C1 event handling code. In the previous example, at first, the check box from Dialog1 was selected to change the text value from Dialog2. To demonstrate the scenario where P2 now exists, the demonstration must navigate back to Dialog1 using the “Previous” button from Dialog2, clear the checked check box from Dialog1, and navigate back to Dialog2 using the “Next” button from Dialog1. The text value from Dialog2 will still be “Enabled”. Please note that both Dialog1 and Dialog2 were already created and persistent. Navigating from Dialog1 to Dialog2 will not reinitialize the widgets, as Dialog2 and its child widgets are persistent. To change the value of existing widget text from Dialog2, the TEXT_SetText function must be called under event handler code of the widget check box from Dialog1. Once the suitable code is added, the text from Dialog2 will follow the check box selection from Dialog1. Anytime the check box from Dialog1 is cleared, the text from Dialog2 will reflect the value as “Disabled”. If the check box is selected, the text will reflect the value as “Enabled”. The following code example shows the required code under check box event handler from Dialog1. case WM_NOTIFY_PARENT: Id = WM_GetId(pMsg->hWinSrc); NCode = pMsg->Data.v; switch(Id) { case ID_CHECKBOX_0: // Notifications sent by 'Checkbox_1' switch(NCode) { case WM_NOTIFICATION_CLICKED: // USER START (Optionally insert code for reacting on notification message) // USER END break; case WM_NOTIFICATION_RELEASED: // USER START (Optionally insert code for reacting on notification message) // USER END break; case WM_NOTIFICATION_VALUE_CHANGED: // USER START (Optionally insert code for reacting on notification message) /* If the Dialog2 handle is valid change the properties text widget from Dialog2 */ if(hDialog2) { hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(pMsg->hWin, ID_CHECKBOX_0); /* If checkbox from Dialog1 is checked Set the text value from Dialog2 to Enabled */ if(CHECKBOX_IsChecked(hItem)) { hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(hDialog2, 0x808); TEXT_SetText(hItem, "Enabled"); } /* Otherwise set the text value from Dialog2 to Disabled */ else { hItem = WM_GetDialogItem(hDialog2, 0x808); TEXT_SetText(hItem, "Disabled"); } } // USER END External Event Handling This section describes the method of changing widget properties based on external events. External events can be a button press or an interrupt generated by a peripheral, etc. Based on the external event, properties of targeted widgets are changed. For example, consider a dialog widget as a parent widget with a progress bar as the child widget. The goal of the demonstration is to increment the progress bar value with a hardware button press. The following figure shows the demonstration screen. Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 54 It can be observed that at the center of the screen a progress bar is drawn. To change the value of the progress bar on an external event, such as a hardware button press, use the PROGBAR_SetValue function. In this example. to detect the button press of a button from demonstration hardware, the MPLAB Harmony BSP function, BSP_SwitchStateGet, is used. The following code example shows usage of these functions. static int32_t value = 0; /* Verify if button is pressed and valid handle of Dialog containing progress bar is available */ if( BSP_SWITCH_STATE_PRESSED == BSP_SwitchStateGet( BSP_SWITCH_S1 ) && hDialog) { /* Get the handle of Progress bar */ hItem = WM_GetDialogItem( hDialog, 0x801 ); /* Update the value of Progress bar */ PROGBAR_SetValue( hItem, value++); } GUI Resource Management This section describes effective management of GUI resources of the SEGGER emWin Graphics Library. Description The various GUI resources are images, fonts, video streams, etc. The images can be of different types, such as uncompressed bitmap images, images compressed using lossless compression methods, or images compressed using lossy compression methods. Bitmap images can have different types of pixel color formats, such as raw BGR (Blue, Green, and Red) 888, or palletized formats. The bitmap formats containing the raw pixel color format BGR888 will take 1 byte for each color, and eventually, will take 3 bytes for each pixel. Based on the image size, the memory requirement will vary. If image size grows, the memory size required to store the image will also grow. The following example shows the calculation of memory size required for the image. Considering image dimensions in pixels with Image Width = 480 and Image Height = 272, if the color format is BGR888, the size of memory required to store the pixel data will be: Image Size (in bytes) = Image Width x Image Height x Bytes Per Pixel = 480 x 272 x 3 = 391680 bytes. Please note that in this calculation the image header size is ignored. The size of Image is accountable considering the RAM memory size of an embedded system device, which could be in form of 10s of KBytes. There are different methods to handle this scenario, as follows: a) Reduce the size of Image by changing the color format b) Reduce the size of Image by applying compression c) Moving Image to Program Flash memory d) Moving Image to external Flash memory Reducing Image Size by Changing the Color Format In this method, the color format of Image is modified to reduce the size of the image. As seen in the previous formula to calculate the Image size, one of the contributing factors to the image size is: Bytes Per Pixel. To be able to reduce the number of bytes required for storing one pixel, Image size can be reduced. For example, with color format BGR888, the image size in bytes is calculated as 391680 bytes. The same image with a color format of RGB565 will take 261120 bytes. Please note for color format RGB565 it takes 2 bytes for each pixel. Similarly, further reduction in the number bytes required for each pixel, the image size will reduce in proportion. Also note for palletized formats, a few more bytes are required to store the color table. Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Using SEGGER emWin with MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 55 Please note that a reduction in the number of bytes required per pixel will reduce the number of colors from image and will affect the image quality, as well. The reduction of the number of colors can be decided based on the number of different colors available in the image and size of the image. For smaller images, the reduction in the number of colors from Image may not be visible, allowing reduction in memory requirements for storing such an image. SEGGER emWin provides the Bitmap Converter utility to achieve the change in color format and saving the image as a C file. The C file can be further linked with the application code. The SEGGER emWin Graphics Library supports drawing of images edited by the Bitmap Converter using the library APIs. For more information on using the Bitmap Converter to change the image format and on the APIs to access the image data, refer to the "emWin Graphic Library with Graphical User Interface User and Reference Guide", document UM03001, which is available for download from the SEGGER website at: https://www.segger.com/downloads/emwin. Reduce Image Size by Applying Compression There are various compression algorithms available, which can help reduce the size of the image. The size of the image is reduced by compressing the image data. The compression can be lossless compression or lossy compression. The Bitmap Converter utility can apply the lossless compression algorithm, such as RLE, and the lossy compression algorithm, such as JPEG. The original image size to compressed image size ratio (compression ratio) varies with the image pixel data and applied algorithm. The JPEG algorithm will be more efficient in terms of the compression ratio, but will be less efficient in terms of image quality, as the JPEG algorithm is a lossy compression algorithm. The SEGGER emWin Graphics Library supports drawing of RLE or JPEG compressed images by using suitable library APIs. For more information on using the Bitmap Converter utility to change the image format, refer to the "emWin Graphic Library with Graphical User Interface User and Reference Guide", document UM03001, which is available for download from the SEGGER website at: https://www.segger.com/downloads/emwin. Moving an Image to Program Flash Memory The static image or font data can be placed in the directly accessible memory such as program Flash. The data is placed in directly accessible memory such as program Flash using compiler attribute commands or in some cases by defining static data as const. The XC32 compiler for PIC32 devices places the data into directly accessible program flash memory if the data is defined as const. The only disadvantage in this case is that the program flash size is now reduced by the size of image or font data. By default, SEGGER emWin tools define the image or font data as const or as GUI_CONST_STORAGE. The SEGGER emWin library for PIC32 defines the GUI_CONST_STORAGE as const. Start-to-End Example of SEGGER emWin Graphics with MPLAB Harmony This section provides getting started information for developing a Graphical User Interface (GUI) application using SEGGER emWin and integrating it with MPLAB Harmony on PIC32 development hardware. This process is demonstrated in the emwin_quickstart application under the apps/gfx/ directory that comes with the harmony installation. Refer to the emwin_quickstart application help under apps/gfx/emwin_quickstart. Description In this demonstration we will create two screens/dialog boxes. Screens/dialog boxes are windows that contain one or more widgets. Widgets are elements of the user interface, which react automatically on certain events. Please note that the terms screens and dialogs are used interchangeably in this section. The screen is designed using the GUIBuilder utility. The following figure shows the final screens that will be designed: The demonstration application will navigate from one screen to another screen using buttons on the screen. The demonstration will use the Next button to navigate from the HomeScreen to Screen2 and the Previous button to navigate from Screen2 to the HomeScreen. The buttons will generate an event on a touch input from the display. There are other vital SEGGER emWin tools available in the \utilities\segger\emwin folder of your MPLAB Harmony installation (see SEGGER Utility Tools for more information). This demonstration uses only the GUIBuilder utility to provide a glimpse of how to create and run a SEGGER emWin GUI project within MPLAB Harmony. Also, the widgets used here are the simpler ones limiting the steps required to create a GUI. Hardware Requirements This section provides information about the development hardware used in the demonstration. Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Start-to-End Example of SEGGER emWin © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 56 Description The demonstration uses the Microchip PIC32MZ Embedded Connectivity with Floating Point Unit (EF) Starter Kit and the Multimedia Expansion Board II (MEB II). PIC32MZ EF Starter Kit (DM320007) The PIC32MZ EF Starter Kit has an on-board 200 MHz PIC32MZ2048EF144 microcontroller with 2 MB Flash, 512 KB RAM and a Floating Point Unit (FPU). It contains an I2C communication peripheral to work with the touch controller. The PIC32MZ EF Starter Kit uses the Low-Cost Controllerless (LCC) driver to drive the the MEB II display without the need of a separate graphics controller. MEB II (DM320005-2) The MEB II consists of 4.3” WQVGA PCAP touch display daughter board and optional EBI SRAM memory. The resolution of the display on the 4.3” WQVGA PCAP touch display is 480 x 272 pixels, which also consists of a MTCH6301 Touch Controller. Software Requirements This section describes the software requirements of the SEGGER emWin application with MPLAB Harmony. Description The demonstration described in the Getting Started section uses the following development environment: • MPLAB X IDE v3.26 or later (http://www.microchip.com/mplab/mplab-x-ide) • MPLAB XC32 C/C++ Compiler v1.40 or later (http://www.microchip.com/mplab/compilers) • MPLAB Harmony v1.08 or later (http://www.microchip.com/mplab/mplab-harmony) • MPLAB Harmony Configurator v1.0.8.6 or later (install-dir>\utilities\mhc) • GUIBuilder v5.32 or later (install-dir>\utilities\segger\emwin) SEGGER emWin GUI Application Design Process This section describes the process to design and run the SEGGER emWin GUI application.

Description Setting up the development hardware includes the following four steps: 1. Jumper Settings: Short the pins, EBIWE and LCD_PCLK, of Jumper J9 on the MEB II. Shorting the pins will allow the WE pin of the EBI peripheral to be used as the pixel clock of the display for the LCC driver with internal frame buffer configuration. 2. Power Supply: Connect the Power supply to the 9V-15V DC Connector on the MEB II. 3. Connecting starter kit to the MEB II: Connect the PIC32MZ EF Starter Kit onto the 168-pin Hirose connector on the MEB II. 4. Connecting the MPLAB REAL ICE: Connect the MPLAB REAL ICE using the RJ12 connector on the MEB II. Using GUIBuilder to Create Screens/Dialog Boxes This section provides an example of Screen/Dialog box design by using the GUIBuilder utility. Description The GUIBuilder utility is a tool for creating dialogs without any knowledge of the C programming language. Instead of writing source code, the widgets can be placed and sized by drag and drop. Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Start-to-End Example of SEGGER emWin © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 57 GUIBuilder Interface As shown in the following figure, the GUIBuilder Utility window is divided into five areas: • Menu bar • Widget selection bar • Object tree • Widget properties • Editor Steps to Design a Screen 1.

Volume VI: Third-Party Products SEGGER emWin Graphics Library Help Start-to-End Example of SEGGER emWin © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 73 wolfMQTT Library Help This section provides information on the wolfMQTT Library. Introduction This topic provides an overview of the wolfMQTT Library in MPLAB Harmony. Description Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) is a lightweight open messaging protocol that was developed for constrained environments such as Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT), where a small code footprint is required. MQTT is based on the Pub/Sub messaging principle of publishing messages and subscribing to topics. The protocol efficiently packs messages to keep the overhead very low. The MQTT specification recommends TLS as a transport option to secure the protocol using port 8883 (secure-mqtt). Constrained devices can benefit from using TLS session resumption to reduce the reconnection cost. The wolfMQTT library is a client implementation of the MQTT written in C for embedded use. It supports SSL/TLS via the wolfSSL library. It was built from the ground up to be multi-platform, space conscience and extensible. It supports all Packet Types, all Quality of Service (QoS) levels 0-2, and supports SSL/TLS using the wolfSSL library. This implementation is based on the MQTT v3.1.1 specification. More Information For known issues and additional details about this release, please see the README file in /third_party/tcpip/wolfmqtt.

MPLAB Harmony v2.06 74 wolfSSL Library Help This section provides information on the wolfSSL Library. Introduction This topic provides an overview of the wolfSSL Library in MPLAB Harmony. Description The wolfSSL embedded SSL library (formerly CyaSSL) is a lightweight SSL/TLS library written in ANSI C and targeted for embedded, RTOS, and resource-constrained environments - primarily because of its small size, speed, and feature set. It is commonly used in standard operating environments as well because of its royalty-free pricing and excellent cross platform support. wolfSSL supports industry standards up to the current TLS 1.2 and DTLS 1.2 levels, is up to 20 times smaller than OpenSSL, and offers progressive ciphers such as ChaCha20, Curve25519, NTRU, and Blake2b. User benchmarking and feedback reports dramatically better performance when using wolfSSL over OpenSSL.

By selecting a module in the Configuration window and clicking F1, help will be opened at the relevant chapter automatically. 1.2 Key Concepts This section describes the key concepts to understand when working with the Data Visualizer. 1.2.1 Workspace Data Visualizer is made up of several elements such as graphs, interfaces, and controls. All these elements form the workspace. The elements are called modules, in which any of them can be added to the workspace. Figure 1-1. Data Visualizer Workspace 1 2 3 4 5 1.

User Guide DS40001903B-page 6 1.2.2 Connection Overview The Data Visualizer communicates with the firmware running in the MCU of the embedded system. Variables in the firmware can be transferred in both directions. In the following example, the temperature value is sent to the visualizer and plotted in a graph. The filter strength value is set by dragging the slider in the visualizer, and is then sent to the MCU. Figure 1-2. Data Visualizer Connection Overview Embedded system MCU PC Temperature int temperature; int filter_strength; Filter USB or Strength serial cable The communication can take place in a serial cable or USB if the embedded system contains an Embedded Debugger. (The Xplained Pro MCU boards contain Embedded Debuggers.) 1.2.3 Embedded Debuggerʼs Data Gateway Interface The Xplained Pro family of boards contain an Embedded Debugger chip. It has a Data Gateway Interface (DGI) that lets the MCU easily communicate with the Data Visualizer through either its SPI or TWI interface, or by GPIO pins. Figure 1-3. The Data Gateway Interface MCU Xplained Pro series board Embedded Debugger SPI TWI GPIO USB In the Data Visualizer, the DGI Control Panel is the module that communicates with the Embedded Debuggerʼs Data Gateway Interface. When the board is connected to the computer with the USB cable, it can be selected in the control panel. A list of available interfaces will appear. Enable one or more of them by checking the boxes. In the figure above, the SPI interface is enabled. The MCU can now communicate with the Data Visualizer on its SPI port. 1.2.4 Simple Transfer Sending a single value from the MCU to the Data Visualizer is quite simple. In the figure below, the MCU sends the temperature variable over its SPI interface. In the visualizer, the SPI interface on the Embedded Debugger has been enabled. The Embedded Debugger will transmit the SPI data to the visualizer through the DGI Control Panel. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 7 Figure 1-4. A Simple DGI Transfer To visualize the temperature data, a Graph has been added. The SPI data is routed to the plot by dragging the plug icon from the SPI interface in the DGI Control Panel, and dropping it in the plot area. This will add a new plot to the Graph module. 1.2.5 Endpoints Data in the Data Visualizer originates from an endpoint and ends in an endpoint. The endpoints are referred to as sinks and sources. A data source sends data to one or more connected sinks. In the workspace, the endpoints are represented by the graphical symbols shown below. Figure 1-5. Data Source Figure 1-6. Unconnected Data Sink Figure 1-7. Connected Data Sink 1.3 Launching Data Visualizer The Data Visualizer is included as part of the Atmel Studio installer, and can be run either as a Studio extension or in Stand-alone mode. To run the Data Visualizer as an extension inside Atmel Studio, select it in the Tools menu: Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 8 Kits supporting Data Visualizer functionality include a shortcut to the extension on their start page in Atmel Studio. If the stand-alone version of the Data Visualizer has been installed, look for the shortcut in the Windows® start menu. The stand-alone version is available for download from gallery.atmel.com. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 9 2. External Connection All communication to the outside world is handled by modules found under the external connection section. The DGI Control Panel communicates with any tool that has the Data Gateway Interface. It is capable of bidirectional communication over SPI, I2C, and USART, in addition to GPIO monitoring, power measurement, and code profiling. The feature set varies by tool. The Serial Port Control Panel communicates with any serial port on the system. 2.1 Data Gateway Interface (DGI) The Data Gateway Interface is available on most kits with an Embedded Debugger. The DGI control panel can communicate with a DGI device. The figure below shows the DGI control panel module. Figure 2-1. Data Gateway Interface Control Panel Tip:  A new DGI Control Panel can be opened in External Connection in the Modules section of the Configuration tab in the Data Visualizer. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 10 All detected DGI devices are listed in the drop-down list with the kit name and serial number. Using the Connect button will connect to the selected DGI device and query for available interfaces. The available interfaces will be listed under Interfaces. To enable an interface, check the box next to the name. When an interface is enabled, the sources and sinks can be connected to other endpoints. The Gear button is used to configure the interface. See the interface-specific sections for an explanation of the configuration fields. To start polling data from the interfaces, click the Start button. The Reset MCU check box will cause the MCU to be held in Reset during start. The Data Visualizer supports two different protocols for Auto-configuration; the Atmel Data Protocol (ADP) and the Data Stream protocol. When using ADP, the configuration resides in the target application code and the target application sends the configuration settings, upon request, from the Data Visualizer. When using the Data Stream protocol, the configuration resides in files stored on the host computer and the target application just sends an ID to identify which configuration files to be loaded by the Data Visualizer. For more information on ADP, see Atmel Data Protocol. For more information on the Data Stream protocol, see Data Stream Protocol. To enable Auto-configuration the Autodetect protocols option must be enabled. After pushing Connect the Data Visualizer will enable all interfaces while it looks for the ADP handshake message or a Data Stream Configuration packet. If an ADP handshake message is received, the Data Visualizer will request configuration information from the target application. If a Data Stream Configuration packet is found, the Data Visualizer searches through the folders in the Auto-Configuration search path looking for configuration files with names matching the detected ID. Important:  To make sure the Data Visualizer detects the Data Stream Configuration packet, it must be sent by the target at least twice per second. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 11 Important:  Asynchronous serial protocols (e.g., UART protocols used by DGI USART and CDC Virtual COM port interfaces) use the following baud rates for auto-detection: Table 2-1. Baud Rates Used on Asynchronous Interfaces for Auto-Detection of Protocols Baud Rate 9600 19200 38400 57600 115200 230400 500000 1000000 2000000 Using any baud rates not in the table will not work for auto-detection of protocols over asynchronous interfaces (DGI UART and Serial port/CDC Virtual COM port). Tip:  To see the current search path used by Data Visualizer to look for configuration files, check the Show Config search path option. The search path is a semicolon separated list of paths. When Data Visualizer detects an AutoConfiguration ID, it will search through the paths in the list looking for configuration files with the correct file names. If the Data Visualizer cannot find any valid configuration files it will show a browser dialog window asking for the path to the folder where the correct configuration files reside. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 12 After selecting a folder, the folder will be APPENDED to the Auto-Configuration search path. Tip:  To reset the search path and select a new single folder as the search path, click the link on the Autodetect protocols option text. Data Visualizer will then pop up a browser dialog asking for the path to the folder where the configuration files reside. The original search path will be CLEARED and the newly selected folder will be set as search path. Important:  All three configuration files must reside in the same folder. 2.1.1 SPI Interface The SPI interface source contains the raw values received on the SPI interface. The sink sends values received back out on the SPI bus. For further details on the physical part of the SPI interface, see the user guide of the debugging tool to be used to sample the SPI data. Important:  If the SPI sink is connected to a source with a multibyte type, the byte order may be unpredictable. Important:  The SPI hardware module uses an active-low Chip Select (CS) signal. Any data sent when the CS pin is high will be ignored. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 13 The SPI Configuration dialog is opened from the SPI interface in the DGI control panel. Table 2-2. Configuration Field Name Values Usage Transfer Mode • SCK normally low, Read data on rising edge • SCK normally low, Read data on falling edge • SCK normally high, Read data on falling edge • SCK normally high, Read data on rising edge SPI mode, controlling clock phase and sampling. Force synchronization on CS ON or OFF The SPI interface is only enabled after the Chip Select line has toggled twice. Enable timestamping ON or OFF Data is timestamped through the DGI timestamp interface (yields a slower transfer rate). Related Links Sink Data Conversion 2.1.2 USART Interface The USART interface source contains the raw values received on the USART interface. The sink sends values received back out on the USART interface. For further details on the physical part of the USART interface, see the user guide of the debugging tool to be used to sample the USART data. Important:  If the USART sink is connected to a source with a multibyte type, the byte order may be unpredictable. The USART Configuration dialog is opened from the USART interface in the DGI Control Panel. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 14 Table 2-3. Configuration Field Name Values Usage Baud rate 0-2000000 Baud rate for UART interface in Asynchronous mode Char length 5, 6, 7, or 8 bits Number of bits in each transfer Parity type None, Even, Odd, Mark, or Space Parity type used for communication Stop bits 1, 1.5, or 2 bits Number of Stop bits Synchronous mode ON or OFF Selecting Synchronous or Asynchronous mode Enable timestamping ON or OFF Data is timestamped through the DGI timestamp interface (yields a slower transfer rate) Related Links Sink Data Conversion 2.1.3 TWI Interface The TWI interface source contains the raw values received on the TWI interface. The sink sends values received back out on the TWI interface. For further details on the physical part of the TWI interface, see the user guide of the debugging tool to be used to sample the TWI data. Important:  If the TWI sink is connected to a source with a multibyte type, the byte order may be unpredictable. The TWI Configuration dialog is opened from the TWI interface in the DGI Control Panel. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 15 Table 2-4. Configuration Field Name Values Usage Address 0-127 TWI slave address Speed 100000, 400000 Speed setting for TWI slave. Used for timing. Enable timestamping ON, OFF Data is timestamped through the DGI timestamp interface (yields a slower transfer rate) Related Links Sink Data Conversion 2.1.4 GPIO Interface The GPIO interface source is of type uint8, and contains the bit values of the enabled GPIO pins. A packet is transmitted every time a pin toggles. The sink sends values received back out to the GPIO pins. For further details on the physical part of the GPIO interface, see the user guide of the debugging tool to be used to sample the GPIO data. The GPIO Configuration dialog is opened from the GPIO interface in the DGI Control Panel. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 16 Table 2-5. Configuration Field Name Values Usage GPIO 0 Monitor ON, OFF Monitor GPIO pin 0 GPIO 1 Monitor ON, OFF Monitor GPIO pin 1 GPIO 2 Monitor ON, OFF Monitor GPIO pin 2 GPIO 3 Monitor ON, OFF Monitor GPIO pin 3 GPIO 0 Output ON, OFF Enable GPIO pin 0 output GPIO 1 Output ON, OFF Enable GPIO pin 1 output GPIO 2 Output ON, OFF Enable GPIO pin 2 output GPIO 3 Output ON, OFF Enable GPIO pin 3 output Mode Pin, Bus, Latched Bus GPIO pins as separate pins, a 4-bit bus, or a 3-bit bus that is latched on rising edge of GPIO3 Important:  When using any of the bus modes (Bus or Latched Bus) all GPIOs are sampled but only those GPIOs that have monitoring enabled will trigger a sample. For example, if GPIO 0 to GPIO2 all have GPIO Monitor disabled but GPIO 3 has Monitor enabled, then GPIO values will only be sampled when GPIO 3 changes but all four GPIO values will be read when GPIO 3 changes.

User Guide DS40001903B-page 17 2.1.5 Power Interface The Power interface measures the power consumption of the connected circuitry. For more information on the hardware part of the power interface, see the user guide of the debugging tool to be used for the power measurements. The Power Configuration window is opened from the Power interface in the DGI Control Panel. The content of the Power Configuration window will vary depending on the capabilities of the connected debugging tool. Table 2-6. Power Configuration Options Field Name Values Usage Enable B Channel ON, OFF Enables the second power measurement channel. The A channel is always enabled. Trigger calibration ON, OFF Triggers the calibration procedure of the current measurement circuitry. For further details, see Power Measurement Calibration. Enable Range Source ON, OFF Provides a range source, indicating which range is in use for the primary power measurement channel. The physical hardware used to measure power consumption will have different configurations depending on the instantaneous current measured. Each configuration is referred to as a range. Lock ChA to High Range ON, OFF On the Power Debugger, the A channel can be locked to the high range to avoid automatic switching to the low range. This allows Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 18 Field Name Values Usage detection of short spikes in current consumption without critical samples being lost when switching between the ranges. Enable Voltage Output ON, OFF Enable Power Debugger Voltage Output with the value given by the Voltage Output slider. Voltage Output 0 - 5500 mV The Power Debugger features an adjustable target supply that can be used to power the target application. This setting controls the output voltage of this supply. The Enable Voltage Output option must be enabled for the setting to take effect. Tip:  Any configuration changes will not take effect until clicking OK in the Power Configuration window. E.g., to enable the Voltage Output the Enable Voltage Output option must be checked, the Voltage Output value set and then after pushing OK the voltage output will actually be enabled and set according to the slider value. Tip:  The channel A range lock will not force the debugger to return to the high current range if already running in the low range. Either wait for a current high enough to force it to change, or simply Stop and Start the debugger. Important:  The Power interface can only be used with the Power module. Neither the Oscilloscope module nor the Graph module can be used with the Power interface. 2.1.6 Code Profiling The Code Profiling interface uses the debug interface of the target device to access internal data like Program Counter and memory locations. It provides timestamped samples of the Program Counter address, allowing an insight in the program execution of the device. The user can also select arbitrary memory addresses to poll and control data variables at those locations. In addition, it is possible to monitor the state of the stack and the Power-Saving/Sleep mode of the target. Finally, it is possible to receive arbitrary data from the target application through a message pipe in the target On-Chip Debug (OCD) system. The availability of the above features varies with target device types and more details can be found in the following sections. 2.1.6.1 Code Profiling Interface For a couple of examples on how to configure and use the Code Profiling interface, see Data Polling Example and Program Counter Polling. Important:  The Code Profiling interface is only available when Data Visualizer is run as an extension within Atmel Studio. This is because it needs to access the debug system on the target device through the Atmel Studio debugger backend. The Code Profiling Configuration window can be opened after enabling the Code Profiling interface in the DGI Control Panel. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 19 Table 2-7. Configuration Field Name Values Usage Enable Code Location ON, OFF Controls the state of the Program Counter sampling. Enable Stack Monitor ON, OFF Enables polling of the Stack Pointer to monitor stack usage (AVR® MCU with UPDI only) AVR MCU OCD messaging ON, OFF Enables routing of OCD messages to Data Visualizer rather than Atmel Studio. AVR MCU Sleep monitor ON, OFF Enables monitoring of the Sleep state of the MCU (AVR MCU with UPDI only) Add Memory Location Adds a new entry of memory location to poll and control. A text box for entering the address (hexadecimal), selecting data type and a Delete button will appear. Each configuration option is detailed in the following sections. 2.1.6.2 Code Location The Code location feature enables the Data Visualizer to sample the Program Counter of the target device. This makes it possible to see what is being executed on the target at various sample points. It is especially useful together with power measurements to correlate code execution with power consumption. The sampled PC values will only show part of the code execution as in most cases it is impossible to read out the PC values as fast as the target is executing instructions. The sampled values are still useful to indicate which code segment is being executed at any point in time. For an example on how to use the Code location feature, see Program Counter Polling. Important:  The Code location feature is only available on SAM devices and AVR devices featuring the UPDI debugging and programming interface. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 20 2.1.6.3 Stack Monitor The Stack Monitor enables developers to monitor the stack usage of their code at run-time. This is done by sampling the Stack Pointer register via the on-chip debug module. Enable the Stack Monitor in the Code Profiling Configuration dialog, then connect the Stack Monitor source to a graph plot sink and start a debug session. Important:  The Stack Monitor feature is only available on AVR devices featuring the UPDI programming and debugging interface. The Stack Monitor feature is implemented using polling, which means that not all stack levels will be visible. The granularity of the resulting graph is a function of the speed of the device clock, the UPDI clock speed and the nature of the application code. It is recommended to set the UPDI clock to maximum when using the Stack Monitor. The example shown here is tracing the stack as points (not plot) from an application running on an ATtiny817. The points show samples with the Stack Pointer in "Idle state" in the main loop pointing to address 16372 (0x3FF4) and decrementing as functions are called. Note:  The Data Visualizer has no knowledge of the configuration of the stack on the device, and thus only shows raw samples of the Stack Pointer. 2.1.6.4 AVR MCU OCD Messaging The AVR MCU OCD messaging system is a side-channel in the on-chip debug module. It is used extensively in some OCD variants to communicate with the core when it is stopped, but is not used by the system during Run mode. It can be used by end-user code to send messages to the debugger at run time. In Run mode, the debugger constantly polls the OCD for run/stop status, and at the same time picks up any messages. AVR MCU OCD messaging is a channel for code instrumentation without using any dedicated pins (other than the debug pins). Messages are single 8-bit values and are by default sent to Atmel Studio and displayed in the Output window as hex values, unless routed to Data Visualizer. AVR MCU OCD messaging can be used in several ways. The examples below show three examples of various techniques. • No handshaking, no guaranteed delivery • With handshaking, blocking transport • With handshaking, non-blocking transport There is no standard way to use OCD messaging. The techniques shown in these examples each have advantages and disadvantages, and make use of different resources on the target device. Not all AVR Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 21 devices support OCD messaging, and not all applications are suited to the use of OCD messaging. It is essentially a side-channel of the on-chip-debug system. Enable AVR MCU OCD messaging in the Code Profiling Configuration dialog, then connect the AVR MCU OCD messaging source to a graph plot sink and start a debug session. Messages will not appear unless code is instrumented accordingly. The most typical use-case for AVR MCU OCD messaging is ASCII printf-style debugging displayed on a terminal, as demonstrated in the examples. However, it could be used to transport any 8-bit data values, or even a composite structure. Messages can, for example, be sent from an ADC sample-complete interrupt, writing the 8-bit value of an ADC sample directly to the OCD message register. This can then be plotted directly onto a graph in Data Visualizer. The ̔defaultʼ OCD message channel to Atmel Studio operates at a fixed sample rate with 50 ms period. When enabled from Data Visualizer, the polling loop makes use of ̔spareʼ cycles in the debugger to read and transport OCD messages. This leads to a higher throughput, but is also less deterministic in timing. AVR MCU OCD Messaging Without Handshaking The simplest form of using AVR MCU OCD messaging is writing directly to the register without any form of handshaking. This might be appropriate when, for example, execution speed is more important than data completeness. A single write to the OCD message register overwrites the previous value, even if it has not been read by the debugger yet. This could also be used for slow-changing data. The following example shows how to output AVR MCU OCD messages without handshaking on various AVR MCU architectures. OCD Messaging on AVR UPDI Target Device // Example of OCD message on AVR UPDI target // No handshaking, no guarantee #define SYSCFG_OCDM SYSCFG.reserved_0x18 void ocd_putchar (char c) { SYSCFG_OCDM = c; } OCD Messaging on AVR XMEGA® Target Device Note:  DGI-based OCD messaging is not yet supported on XMEGA targets. The code shown here will push OCD messages to Atmel Studio. // Example of OCD message on AVR XMEGA target // No handshaking, no guarantee void ocd_putchar (char c) { OCD.OCDR0 = c; } OCD Messaging on AVR JTAG Target Device // Example of OCD message on AVR JTAG target // No handshaking, no guarantee void ocd_putchar (char c) { OCDR = c; } OCD Messaging with Handshaking and Blocking This example will block on each character sent via the OCD messaging system until it is ready to accept a new character. A simple timeout is employed to prevent full lockup of code if the debugger is Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 22 disconnected. This example runs on an AVR ATtiny817 using the UPDI interface, but a similar mechanism could be used on other AVR MCU architectures supporting OCD messaging. #include #include #define SYSCFG_OCDM SYSCFG.reserved_0x18 #define SYSCFG_OCDMS SYSCFG.reserved_0x19 bool ocd_print_ready (void) { // Has the last character been collected? return !(SYSCFG_OCDMS & (1 << 0)); } bool ocd_print_char (char msg) { // Simple timeout mechanism uint8_t timeout = 0xFF; while (timeout-- && !ocd_print_ready()) ; // If the debugger fails to collect, continue if (!timeout) return false; // Drop off a message SYSCFG_OCDM = msg; return true; } void ocd_print (char* pmsg) { // Send the message while (*pmsg) { if (!ocd_print_char(*pmsg++)) return; } } int main(void) { // Send an OCD message ocd_print ("Hello World\n"); while (1) ; } Interrupt-Driven Bufferred OCD Messaging A more complex method of using AVR MCU OCD messaging involves a small I/O buffer into which a printf function can inject data which will be gradually transferred to the debugger. A timer interrupt is used to periodically service the printf buffer. On each interrupt a character will be sent from the buffer, if the message channel is ready and data is available. This example runs on a megaAVR® device with JTAG interface, but a similar mechanism can be employed on other AVR device architectures supporting OCD messaging. #include #include #include // Buffer allocated to OCD messaging #define OCDR_BUFFER_SIZE 32 static uint8_t ocdr_buffer[OCDR_BUFFER_SIZE]; // Buffer pointers static uint8_t head; static uint8_t tail; // Flag to indicate if a debugger is picking up the messages static uint8_t debugger_attached = 1; Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 23 // Declarations static int ocdr_putchar(char c, FILE *stream); static FILE mystdout = FDEV_SETUP_STREAM(ocdr_putchar, NULL, _FDEV_SETUP_WRITE); // Puts a char into the stream static int ocdr_putchar(char c, FILE *stream) { // If the debugger fails to collect, rather just abort if (!debugger_attached) return 1; // Increment head with wrapping uint8_t tmphead; tmphead = (head + 1 ); if (tmphead >= OCDR_BUFFER_SIZE) tmphead = 0; if (tmphead == tail) { // Overflow, abort debugger_attached = 0; return 0; } // Add data ocdr_buffer[tmphead] = c; head = tmphead; return 1; } // Timer interrupt regularly sends data ISR(TIMER0_OVF_vect) { // If no data, continue if (head == tail) return; // If the previous byte has not been collected, continue if (OCDR & 0x80) return; // Increment tail uint8_t tmptail = (tail + 1); if (tmptail >= OCDR_BUFFER_SIZE) tmptail = 0x00; tail = tmptail; // Send data to debugger OCDR = ocdr_buffer[tmptail]; // Reset attached flag to allow hot-plugging debugger_attached = 1; } void ocdr_printf_init (void) { // Zero buffer pointers head = 0; tail = 0; // TC setup. 8Mhz DIV32 gives ~1ms overflow ticks TIFR = (1 << TOV0); TIMSK = (1 << TOIE0); TCCR0 = (1 << CS01) | (1 << CS00); sei(); } int main(void) { // Port init DDRB |= 0xFF; PORTB = 0x55; // Buffer init stdout = &mystdout; ocdr_printf_init(); // Demo loop uint8_t c = 0; while(1) Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 24 { c++; PORTB = ~c; printf("led %d\n", c); // Must delay > ~8ms to guarantee printf delivery uint16_t delay = 0x3FFF; while (delay--) ; } } 2.1.6.5 AVR MCU Sleep Monitor The AVR MCU Sleep Monitor enables developers to monitor the Sleep mode state of the AVR MCU CPU at run-time. Sleep mode is a binary representation, and does not indicate which low-power mode is active (idle, power-down, etc.) The AVR MCU Sleep Monitor can be useful for determining the approximate amount of time the CPU spends in Sleep mode. Enable the AVR MCU Sleep Monitor in the Code Profiling Configuration dialog, then connect the AVR MCU Sleep Monitor source to a graph plot sink, and start a debug session. Important:  The AVR MCU Sleep Monitor feature is only available on AVR devices featuring the UPDI programming and debugging interface. The AVR MCU Sleep Monitor feature is implemented using polling, which means that not ALL Sleep transitions will be visible. The granularity of the resulting graph is a function of the UPDI clock speed and the nature of the application code. It is recommended to set the UPDI clock to maximum when using the AVR MCU Sleep Monitor. The graph below shows an example of the Sleep Monitor in use. A value of ̔ 1ʼ indicates that the MCU is in Sleep mode, and ̔0ʼ means it is running normally. From the plot, one can measure (using cursors) that the MCU is entering and exiting Sleep mode with a period of about 2.2s, and stays ̔awakeʼ for about 275 ms on each wake-up cycle. 2.1.6.6 Data Polling and Control The Data Polling and Control feature makes it possible to continuously sample and alter arbitrary memory locations in the target device. For an example on how to use this feature, see Data Polling and Control Example. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 25 Important:  The Data Polling and Control feature is only available on SAM devices. To add a memory location to be polled and/or controlled do the following. To do:  • Click the Add Memory Location button for each memory location to be added • Fill in the address and format of each location There will be one source and one sink for each memory location. Connect the source to any visualization module to monitor the value of the location and connect any data source to the sink to alter the value of the memory location. Important:  Declaring variables you are interested in polling as volatile will ensure that they are placed in SRAM and that their values will not be cached in registers by the compiler. Registers cannot be polled, only SRAM locations. Tip:  Data polling operates on absolute SRAM locations. It is advised to use global variables for this purpose so that they are always available at the same location in SRAM. Polling locations in the stack can yield unpredictable results based on the stack context at the time of polling. Data Polling Example An example on how to use Program Counter sampling for power consumption analysis can be found in Program Counter Polling. The same Mass Storage Class example used in this section is also suited as an example on how to use the data polling and control of data variables features. A SAM L21 Xplained Pro board is connected to a host computer both through Target USB and Debug USB connectors on the kit. The ATSAML21 target device is running the USB Device MSC Example from ASF for SAM L21 Xplained Pro. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 26 For more information on the hardware setup and target application code used in this example, see Data Polling Example Code. Although this example makes use of the Graph and Dashboard modules the principles are the same for using the Code Profiling interface with the other modules in the Data Visualizer. First, a graph will be set up to monitor variables in the target application. To do:  • Enable the Code Profiling interface by deselecting the check box for the Code Profiling interface in the DGI Control Panel To do:  • Open the Code Profiling Configuration window by pushing the Gear button To do:  • Click the Add Memory Location button for each memory location to be added • Fill in the address and format of each location Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 27 To do:  • Open the Configuration panel in Data Visualizer • Add a graph by double-clicking the Graph module A new Graph element will open with one y axis configured. However, there are two unrelated variables to monitor, therefore, two axes are needed. To do:  • Click the Add axis button to add an additional axis There are now sources (variables) and sinks (axes), to be connected together. To do:  Drag each of the source plugs on the Code Profiling interface into the New plot (sink) jack of each axis. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 28 To do:  In Atmel Studio click Continue (F5) to resume execution. Tip:  A USB device in the HALT state no longer responds to Windows events, and may be disconnected from the bus if held in this state for too long. To remedy this simply reset execution in Atmel Studio. Look at the output in the graph in Data Visualizer. Format the disk and watch how the write cycles counter increments. Both values are plotted on independent axes, so they can be scaled accordingly. The output should look something like this: Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 29 The following part of this example shows how to use a dashboard to interact with the target application. For more information on the required code changes in the target application, see Application Interaction using Dashboard Controls. To do:  • Open Data Visualizer • Connect • Add the location of the frame_comparator in the Code Profiling Configuration window A Data Visualizer dashboard can now be made with controls which manipulate the value of this variable. To do:  • Open the configuration panel • Add a new I/O Dashboard component by double-clicking the I/O Dashboard module Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 30 A slider control can now be added to the dashboard. To do:  • Select the Edit checkbox • Open the Elements tab • Drag a Slider element onto the dashboard A slider control needs to have some configuration parameters. To do:  Select the slider element and set its properties: • Maximum = 500 • Minimum = 100 Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 31 A segment display control can now be added to the dashboard. To do:  • Select the Edit checkbox • Open the Elements tab • Drag a Segment Display element onto the dashboard A segment display control needs to have some configuration parameters. To do:  Select the segment display element and set its properties: • Segment Count = 3 Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 32 The slider control can now be used as a source which can be connected to any relevant sink in Data Visualizer. The segment display can similarly be used as a sink to connect any relevant source to. The Code Profiling data polling interface provides both a source of data and a sink of data. The slider can now be connected to the sink and the segment display to the source. To do:  • Deselect the Edit checkbox • Select the Show Endpoints checkbox • Connect sources to sinks by dragging each source plug and drop it on a sink Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 33 Now that the connections have been made in Data Visualizer, the system can be put into a running state and interaction with the variable can be made through the GUI. To do:  • Deselect the Show Endpoints checkbox • Start Data Visualizer • Resume execution in Atmel Studio (F5) The slider is now in control of the frame_comparator variable in the application code. Drag the slider, and notice that the LED blink frequency changes. Any change in the slider position will be sent to the target device through the debug interface, and a new value stored in the variable. At the same time, the value is also read back from the target and displayed on the segment display. 2.1.7 Sink Data Conversion Since DGI only can handle 8-bit values natively, all values received by DGI are remapped according to the rules in the following table. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 34 Table 2-8. Data Conversion Data Type Conversion Int8 Cast to uint8. 2ʼs complement value is retained. Uint8 Int16 2ʼs complement value is retained. Split into two uint8 values. Big endian. Uint16 Split into two uint8 values. Big endian. Int32 2ʼs complement value is retained. Split into four uint8 values. Big endian. Uint32 Split into four uint8 values. Big endian. Float Cast to Int32 Double Cast to Int32 XY8 X-value sent first, then Y-value XYu8 X-value sent first, then Y-value XY16 X-value sent first, then Y-value XYu16 X-value sent first, then Y-value XY32 X-value sent first, then Y-value XYu32 X-value sent first, then Y-value XYFloat X-value sent first, then Y-value XYDouble X-value sent first, then Y-value String The ASCII values of each character is sent. A null termination is added. StringFloat Sent as a Int32 with the string following Boolean False is sent as 0, true as 1 2.1.8 DGI Data Polling The communication with the Data Gateway Interface (DGI) is done through a separate C++ DLL. When a session is started, it will poll the DGI device for data each 2 ms. However, because the CPU could be busy with other tasks, the polling might happen with a longer interval. Since the DGI device has a limited buffer, the DLL needs to poll the device regularly to avoid an overflow. Therefore, it is important to keep the CPU usage low during polling sessions. In case of overflow problems, either decrease the transfer rate on the DGI interfaces or decrease the CPU load by shutting down applications. 2.2 Serial Port The Data Visualizer can be connected to a standard PC serial port. The Serial Port Control Panel is by default opened and minimized under the DGI Control Panel when starting the Data Visualizer. To expand it, click the down arrow in the right corner of the minimized panel. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 35 Tip:  A new Serial Port Control Panel can be opened in External Connection in the Modules section of the Configuration tab in the Data Visualizer. Baud rate, Stop bits, and parity must be set to match the required settings for the communication partner. A sink and a source endpoint is present to represent the outgoing and incoming data for the serial port. The endpoints of the serial port control panel is of uint8 data type, and follows the same conversion rules as the DGI control panel. The Open Terminal check box will cause a terminal module to automatically open and connect the endpoints. When disconnecting from a serial port, the created terminal module will be closed. Figure 2-2. Serial Port Control Panel Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 36 Table 2-9. Configuration Field name Values Usage Baud rate 600-2000000 Baud rate of serial interface Parity None, Even, Odd, Mark, or Space Parity type used for communication Stop bits 1, 1.5, or 2 bits Number of Stop bits DTR ON or OFF Data Terminal Ready control signal of RS-232 serial communication RTS ON or OFF Request To Send control signal of RS-232 serial communication Open Terminal ON or OFF Opens a terminal upon connection with the source and sink connections automatically connected between the Serial Port Control Panel serial port and the terminal Autodetect protocols ON or OFF Auto-detection of the Atmel Data Protocol or Data Stream protocol Auto-configuration. For more information on the protocols, see Atmel Data Protocol and Data Stream Protocol Show Config search path ON or OFF Only available when Autodetect protocols is enabled. Shows the search path for Data Stream Autoconfiguration files The Data Visualizer supports two different protocols for Auto-configuration; the Atmel Data Protocol (ADP) and the Data Stream protocol. When using ADP, the configuration resides in the target application code and the target application sends the configuration settings, upon request, from the Data Visualizer. When using the Data Stream protocol, the configuration resides in files stored on the host computer and the target application just sends an ID to identify which configuration files to be loaded by the Data Visualizer. For more information on ADP, see Atmel Data Protocol. For more information on the Data Stream protocol, see Data Stream Protocol. To enable Auto-configuration the Autodetect protocols option must be enabled. After pushing Connect the Data Visualizer will enable all interfaces while it looks for the ADP handshake message or a Data Stream Configuration packet. If an ADP handshake message is received, the Data Visualizer will request configuration information from the target application. If a Data Stream Configuration packet is found, the Data Visualizer searches through the folders in the Auto-Configuration search path looking for configuration files with names matching the detected ID. Important:  To make sure the Data Visualizer detects the Data Stream Configuration packet, it must be sent by the target at least twice per second. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 37 Important:  Asynchronous serial protocols (e.g., UART protocols used by DGI USART and CDC Virtual COM port interfaces) use the following baud rates for auto-detection: Table 2-10. Baud Rates Used on Asynchronous Interfaces for Auto-Detection of Protocols Baud Rate 9600 19200 38400 57600 115200 230400 500000 1000000 2000000 Using any baud rates not in the table will not work for auto-detection of protocols over asynchronous interfaces (DGI UART and Serial port/CDC Virtual COM port). Tip:  To see the current search path used by Data Visualizer to look for configuration files, check the Show Config search path option. The search path is a semicolon separated list of paths. When Data Visualizer detects an AutoConfiguration ID, it will search through the paths in the list looking for configuration files with the correct file names. If the Data Visualizer cannot find any valid configuration files it will show a browser dialog window asking for the path to the folder where the correct configuration files reside. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 38 After selecting a folder, the folder will be APPENDED to the Auto-Configuration search path. Tip:  To reset the search path and select a new single folder as the search path, click the link on the Autodetect protocols option text. Data Visualizer will then pop up a browser dialog asking for the path to the folder where the configuration files reside. The original search path will be CLEARED and the newly selected folder will be set as search path. Important:  All three configuration files must reside in the same folder. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 39 3. Visualization Incoming data can be visualized using the modules contained under this section. The Terminal displays data as text, either as raw values or ASCII encoded characters. It is also capable of sending text-based data. The Graph module visualizes incoming data over time as plots, bands, and string flags. Cursor helps analyze the data, and can provide output values for setting thresholds. The Oscilloscope module is helpful for analyzing time-repeating patterns in a data stream. The Power Analysis module is made specifically for analyzing power consumption over time. It can also be used with code profiling to visualize Program Counter samples to get an overview of the program execution versus power consumption. The Custom Dashboard module is a customizable canvas to create user interfaces matching the application. It features the most common user inputs such as buttons, sliders, and check-boxes, in addition to graphing, etc. 3.1 Terminal The Terminal module is a raw terminal for displaying and sending simple text or numeric values. 3.1.1 Terminal Module The Terminal module is used to display and send simple text or numeric values. For an example on how to configure a terminal, see Terminal Configuration Example. Figure 3-1. Terminal 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1. Input text box. 2. Output text box. 3. Output source. 4. Input sink. 5. Clear button.  6. Automatic line feed checkbox. 7. Hexadecimal mode checkbox. 8. Display timestamp checkbox. 9. Autoscroll checkbox.  3.1.1.1 Connecting the Terminal and Displaying Data Data streams are connected to the terminal through the sink and source endpoints. Drop an external source onto the terminal sink, or drag and drop the terminal source onto an external sink. Data coming into the terminal's sink endpoint will be presented in the input text box. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 40 3.1.1.2 Sending Data When the source of the terminal has been connected to a sink endpoint, data can be sent by typing data in the input text box and pressing enter. Whatever was typed in the text box will be cleared after transmission. The text box supports the use of break characters (e.g. \x55, which will result in the raw value 0x55 being transmitted). 3.1.1.3 Setting Hexadecimal Mode Data is normally assumed to be an ASCII encoded stream of data. To display the hexadecimal value of the data, select the Hexadecimal mode checkbox. 3.1.1.4 Resizing the Input Text Box The input text box is re-sizable by clicking and dragging the lower part of the box. 3.1.2 Terminal Configuration Example The following example shows how to connect the SPI interface to a terminal. However, the procedure is the same for any of the other available data sources. The target code used in this example can be found in Terminal Example Code. To do:  Select correct tool in the DGI Control Panel. To do:  Click Connect to make a connection to the DGI on the selected tool. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 41 To do:  • Click the SPI checkbox • Open the SPI Configuration dialog by clicking the Gear button next to the SPI checkbox To do:  • Set Transfer Mode to SCK normally low, Read data on rising edge • Enable the Force start-up synchronization on CS option To do:  • Open the configuration panel • Add a Terminal view to the Visualizer • Drag the source connector from the interface in the DGI Control Panel into the sink for the Terminal to make a connection Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 42 To do:  • Start the session • Press the button (SW0) on the Xplained Pro board On each button press, LED0 on the board should toggle and a message appear on the terminal. Sometimes more than one message appears for each button press. This is an indication that some debouncing algorithm is needed in the button sample routine. It is a lot easier to spot this problem by looking at the terminal output than to watch the LED toggling. 3.2 Graph The Graph module is a versatile graph plotting tool. 3.2.1 Graph Module The Graph module is a versatile graph plotting tool. The large plot area has one time axis, and one or more value axes (Y axes). The value axes are stacked on top of each other. For an example on how to configure a graph, see Graph Configuration Example. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 43 Figure 3-2. Graph with a Plot, Band, String Marker, and Cursor 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 9 8 1. Plot area. 2. String marker. 3. Horizontal cursor. 4. Plot. 5. Band. 6.

User Guide DS40001903B-page 45 Press the Add axis button to add an Y axis to the graph. It will show up in the plot area, and its controls will be added to the bottom of the Configuration panel. Delete Axes 1. If the configuration section for the axis you want to delete is hidden, first expand it by clicking the arrow icon. 2. Delete the axis by pressing its Delete Axis button. Enabling and Disabling Auto-scrolling Auto-scrolling locks the plot area to include the latest arriving samples. If auto-scrolling is disabled, manually scroll the plot by dragging the time axis with the mouse or with the scroll wheel. Auto-scrolling is enabled by selecting the Auto-scroll check box. Auto-sizing the Y Axis When the Automatically Fit Y check box is checked, the Y axis will automatically zoom in or out in order to fit the whole sample range of the plots in that axis. 3.2.1.2 Plot A plot is a curve describing a changing value. The curve is drawn between the data samples it receives from the data source. The samples can arrive sporadically, or at a fixed interval. If the data source is known to be sampling at a fixed rate the plot can be set to this sample rate. This way, the curve will be shown correctly even if there are some elasticity in the transmission of the samples. If the samples come at an irregular rate, set the sample rate to 0. This will make the graph position the samples along the time axis according to the sampleʼs timestamp. If there is more than one plot in the graph, each plot will update when new data arrives for that plot. When adding a plot to an axis, the new plotʼs Plot control panel will be placed under that axis in the Graph configuration panel. Figure 3-5. Plot Controls 1 2 3 5 6 8 9 10 11 4 7 1. Plot label. 2.

In the dialog box that opens, adjust the color by dragging the Red, Green, and Blue sliders. Press OK. 3. The plot line and the line color indicator has now changed to the new color. Change Plot Type The plot type can be changed between Plot and Points by changing the selected type in the Plot type selection. The Plot type will show the graph plot as a continuous line while the Points type will show the actual plot samples as dots only. Plot Data at a Fixed Sample Rate If the data source sends data to the plot at a fixed rate, the plotʼs sample rate can be set. Enter the number in the Sample rate text box and press the Set button. Plot Timestamped Data If the data arrives at irregular intervals, the graph will present a more accurate view if the samples are placed using the sampleʼs timestamp. To plot using timestamps, enter 0 into the Sample rate text box and press the Set button. Remove a Plot To remove a plot from an axis, press the Delete button in the plot's control panel. Cursors If the Show Cursors option is enabled, two vertical cursors will show up in the plot area. The cursors can be moved by the mouse and the Plot Controls panel shows data related to the cursors. 3.2.1.3 Band A band is a vertical marking in the plot area that highlights the plot background with the band color. For example, on the plot of a temperature reading, a band can be added that highlights portions of the plot where the temperature is above a certain value. Figure 3-6. Graph Module Showing a Plot and a Band A band has a minimum and a maximum limit. The band will be active, on, if the input to the band is between these two values. Figure 3-7. Band Controls Adding and Connecting the Band To add a new band and connect it to a data source, drag the data source plug and drop it on the New band sink connector. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 47 Setting the Band Color Click the band color indicator. A dialog box will open. Change the RGB values, and press OK. Note:  When changing the band color, the change will not affect band regions already in the graph. Only new band regions will have the new color. Setting Inverted Band Limits Figure 3-8. Band with Inverted Behavior Min limit Max limit If the maximum limit is set to a value less than the minimum value, the band will behave in an inverted manner. Now, the band will be active when the input value is less than the maximum limit, or if the input value is greater than the minimum limit. • Enter the minimum and maximum values, and make sure the maximum value is less than the minimum value. Press the Set button. Setting the Band Color Click the band color indicator. A dialog box will open. Change the RGB values, and press OK. Note:  When changing the band color, the change will not affect band regions already in the graph. Only new band regions will have the new color. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 48 Remove a Band To remove a band, press the Delete button in the band's control panel. 3.2.1.4 String Markers When the source sends a string, the string marker will attach these short messages to the graph. These markers will be placed according to the timestamp of the sample. Figure 3-9. Graph with Plot and Two String Markers Adding and Connecting a String Marker To add and connect a string marker to a data source, drag the data source plug and drop it on the New string sink connector. Setting the String Marker Color Click on the string color indicator in the String control panel. Change the RGB values, and press OK. Note:  When changing the string marker color, the change will not affect string markers already in the graph. Only new string markers will have the new color. Expanding and Collapsing String Markers When large strings are sent to a string marker, the marker will collapse into a small box to reduce the space it occupies in the plot area. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.

Click and drag the axis. 3.2.2 Graph Configuration Example This chapter gives an example on how to configure the Graph module to be used with a target application implementing a Night mode switch with a light sensor. Although this example utilizes only some of the data sources available in the Data Visualizer, the procedure will be the same for all data sources. The target code used in this example and a description of the hardware setup can be found in the Graph Example Code chapter. The first part of the configuration example uses the code found in the first subsection of the Graph Example Code chapter (Basic Graph). When changes to the target application code are required as the example progress a link to the corresponding code listing will be provided. To do:  Select correct tool in the DGI Control Panel. To do:  Click Connect to make a connection to the DGI on the selected tool. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 52 To do:  • Click the SPI checkbox • Open the SPI Configuration dialog by clicking the Gear button next to the SPI checkbox To do:  • Open the configuration panel • Add a Graph module to the Data Visualizer • Drag the source connector from the interface in the DGI Control Panel into the sink marked New plot to make a connection to a new plot Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 53 To do:  • Push Start in DGI Control Panel The data will be plotted in the Graph module. It could look something like the picture below when hovering a hand above the light sensor. The light sensor data can be used to switch between Day and Night mode. For the Night mode switch to be useful, the threshold when switching between the modes are important. The Graph module contains a useful feature called Band to mark when the plot data is within a certain range. This can be used to simplify the selection of the mode switch threshold. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 54 To do:  • Drag the interface source to the New band sink To see that the Night mode switch is actually working and switching at the right threshold, the string marker feature of the Graph module is useful. In this example, the CDC USART interface of the target board is used to send a string each time the mode is switched. These messages can then be shown in the graph as string markers. The target application source code for this part of the configuration example can be found in Adding String Markers. To do:  • Open the Serial Port Control panel found under External Connection in the Modules section of the Configuration tab in Data Visualizer Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 55 To do:  • Select the correct COM port corresponding to the connected kit • Set the serial port parameters according to the application code • Make sure the Open Terminal option is not checked To do:  • Drag the serial port source to the New string sink • Click Connect in the Serial Port Control Panel Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 56 String markers will appear as vertical lines with a square on top. By double-clicking the square the string text will be shown. Note that there will naturally be some delay from the ADC data values crosses the threshold until the string message reaches the host computer. In addition, the timestamping of the data is added on the host computer and the two serial interfaces are not synchronized. This results in a misalignment of the string markers compared to the ADC values. DGI includes timestamping functionality on the EDBG on the Xplained Pro and this can be enabled in the DGI Control Panel at a performance cost, but CDC includes no time stamping functionality. Tip:  In this example, a separate serial interface was used for the string marker data. If the number of serial interfaces available are constrained, the same interface could be used to stream both the ADC data and the string marker data by using the Atmel Data Protocol (ADP). For more information, see the Atmel Data Protocol. So far, the Graph module of the Data Visualizer has been used to show the data generated by the light sensor and to show when the Night mode switch toggles between the two modes. The Graph module can also be used to interact with the target application while it is running. In this example, the Night mode threshold can be adjusted dynamically by using a horizontal cursor. The target application source code for this part of the configuration example can be found in Using Horizontal Cursor Code. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 57 To do:  • First, remove the band from the graph as it is of no use when the Night mode threshold is dynamic • Click Add Horiz. Cursor to add a horizontal cursor to the graph • Drag the Horizontal Cursor source to the sink in the Serial Port Control Panel To move the horizontal cursor either drag it or change the value by typing a new value in the Value field in the configuration. Note that the value will not be updated until the Value text box is not in focus, i.e. click somewhere else in the GUI after typing in a value. Every time the cursor is moved the Data Visualizer sends a new float value to the serial port the cursor is connected to. Tip:  Turn off Auto-scroll and Automatically fit Y to more closely examine a plot while it is still running. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 58 3.3 Oscilloscope The Oscilloscope module visualizes data values in real time. The oscilloscope features a trigger submodule to capture repeating signals or rare events. The oscilloscope also has a cursor system to measure various properties of the data streams. 3.3.1 Oscilloscope Module The Oscilloscope module visualizes data values in real time. It has four channels for monitoring four different data streams at the same time. Each channel's data stream is visualized as a graph in the plot area, each with a different color. The vertical position and amplitude of each channel can be modified. For repeating signals, or for capturing rare events, the oscilloscope has a trigger sub-module. The oscilloscope also has a cursor system to measure various properties of the data streams. For an example on how to configure an oscilloscope, see Oscilloscope Configuration Example.

Show/hide control area arrow.  3.3.1.1 Oscilloscope Control Panel The Oscilloscope control panel is where the oscilloscope is configured and connected to the rest of the system. The control panel has five sections, which are described in detail in the following sections. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 60 Figure 3-13. Oscilloscope Control Panel Vertical Controls The vertical control section has four sub-sections, one for each of the four oscilloscope channels. The channel controls are disabled until a source is connected to the channel sink. Connecting the Oscilloscope Signals or data streams are connected to the oscilloscope through the channel sink endpoints. Drop an external source onto the sink. When connected, the rest of the channel controls will be enabled. Adjusting the Channel Amplitude When a channel is displayed in the plot area, the signal's height is determined by the channel amplitude setting. The amplitude can be adjusted in three different ways: • Enter an amplitude value into the text box. Deselect the text box to let the new value take effect. • Click on the up/down arrows located to the right of the text box • With the mouse cursor positioned over the text box, scroll the mouse wheel to increase/decrease the amplitude setting Show and Hide a Channel When a channel is in use, the plot can be hidden from the plot area by clearing the Amplitude check box. Click it to show the plot again. Adjusting the Channel Offset The channelʼs vertical position in the plot area can be adjusted with the Offset setting. The offset value is the channelʼs zero-pointʼs distance above the bottom of the plot area. There are four ways to adjust the offset: • Enter an offset value into the text box. Deselect the text box to let the new value take effect. • Click on the up/down arrows located to the right of the text box • With the mouse cursor positioned over the text box, scroll the mouse wheel to increase/decrease the offset setting • If the channelʼs zero line is enabled in the plot area, drag it to a new position Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 61 Show and Hide the Zero Line A zero line is, by default, shown when a channel is enabled by connecting it to a source. The zero line is a horizontal line shown in the plot with the same color as the channelʼs color. It also has a 0 label on the left end. The zero line can be shown/hidden by clicking/clearing the Offset check box. Customize the Channel Name When the oscilloscope module is added to the workspace, the four channels are labeled Channel 1 to Channel 4. The label can be changed, as a reminder of what signal is connected to that channel. • Click inside the label and type in the new name Run Control The Run/Stop and Single buttons are the run control. These buttons control if the plots are updated or not. There are three operating modes: • Stop (the Run/Stop button is red) • Single (the Single button is yellow) • Run (the Run/Stop button is green) Enter Run Mode When the stop or single operating mode is active (red or yellow light), enter the run mode by clicking the Run/Stop button. The button will turn green, and the plots will continuously update according to trigger settings. Enter Single Mode When the stop or run operating mode is active (red or green light), enter the single mode by clicking the Single button. The button will turn yellow, and the plots will trigger and update only once. Enter Stop Mode When the single or run operating mode is active (yellow or green light), enter the stop mode by clicking the Run/Stop button. The button will turn red, and the plots will freeze. Trigger Controls The Oscilloscope trigger sub-module helps to identify and lock on to only the portion of the input signal desired. Depending on the operating mode set by the run controls, the trigger can: • Lock on to a periodic signal and constantly update the plot • Only update the plot when the signal exceeds some level Edge Triggering The edge triggering mechanism is looking for the signal to cross the trigger level. For a positive edge trigger, the signal must go from below the trigger level, to above the trigger level. Figure 3-14. Positive Edge Trigger Trigger level 1 2 3 1. No trigger – the line must cross. 2. No trigger – wrong direction. 3. Trigger point.  Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 62 Figure 3-15. Negative Edge Trigger Trigger level 1 2 3 1. No trigger – the line must cross. 2. No trigger – wrong direction. 3. Trigger point.  Set the Edge Trigger Type The trigger mechanism has two edge trigger modes: Positive and Negative Edge Trigger. • To set the Positive Edge Trigger mode, click the button. The button will be highlighted when activated. • To set the Negative Edge Trigger mode, click the button. The button will be highlighted when activated. Set the Trigger Level The trigger level can be adjusted in three different ways: • Enter a trigger level value into the text box. Press the TAB keyboard button or click the mouse outside the text box to let the new value take effect. • Click on the up/down arrows located to the right of the text box • With the mouse cursor positioned over the text box, scroll the mouse wheel to increase/decrease the trigger level setting • Drag the trigger level line in the plot area to a new position Select the Trigger Source The Oscilloscope trigger sub-module uses one of the channel signals when looking for the trigger condition. • Click the colored Trigger source button corresponding to the channel chosen for use as a trigger source. The active Trigger source button will be highlighted. Set the Trigger Mode The Oscilloscope module supports both Triggered and Free Running mode. • Click Normal to enable Triggered mode. The plot will only be updated when the trigger condition is satisfied. • Click Auto to enable Free Running mode. The plot will be updated continuously and the trigger conditions will be ignored. Horizontal Control The oscilloscope draws the plot lines at a constant speed. The X axis is the time axis. The axis labels show time relative to the trigger point. For the labels to display correctly, the oscilloscope needs to know the sample rate of the source. Set the Sample Rate In the sample rate text box, enter the source's sample rate. Note:  All sources connected to the oscilloscope must have the same sample rate. If not, the plot lines will not be synchronous with the time axis. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 63 Set the Horizontal Resolution The horizontal resolution determines the time axis range, or what time-span is visible in the plot. It can be adjusted in four different ways: • Position the mouse cursor inside the plot area. Use the mouse wheel to zoom in or out. • Enter a resolution value into the text box. Deselect the text box to let the new value take effect. • Click on the up/down arrows located to the right of the text box • With the mouse cursor positioned over the text box, scroll the mouse wheel to increase/decrease the resolution setting • Drag the time axis scale handles to change the resolution Set the Horizontal Offset The horizontal offset is the trigger point's position relative to the center of the plot area. Typically, the offset is changed in order to inspect the plot on either side of the trigger point. There are five different ways of changing the offset: • Position the mouse cursor inside the plot area. Make sure it does not touch any of the trigger line, zero line, or cursor lines. Then, click and drag the mouse horizontally to change the offset. • Position the mouse cursor on the time axis. Then click and drag the mouse horizontally to change the offset. • Enter an offset value into the text box. Deselect the text box to let the new value take effect. • Click on the up/down arrows located to the right of the text box • With the mouse cursor positioned over the text box, scroll the mouse wheel to increase/decrease the offset setting 3.3.1.2 Cursors The oscilloscope has two cursors that can be used to inspect the plots. The cursors simplify measurements such as pulse widths, amplitudes, frequencies, and so on. Each cursor is displayed in the plot area as two lines, one vertical and one horizontal. When the vertical cursor line is moved, the horizontal line will follow so that the plot line, vertical and horizontal cursor lines intersect in the same point. You can set which channel is the source for each of the cursors. At the bottom of the plot area is the data line. It displays the X and Y values for each of the cursors. In addition, ΔX, ΔY, and 1/ΔX is calculated and displayed. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 64 Figure 3-16. Oscilloscope Cursors Show and Hide the Cursors In the Cursor area in the Oscilloscope control panel, toggle the Show button to show or hide the cursors and the cursor data line in the plot area. Select Cursor Source Channel In the Cursor group in the oscilloscopeʼs control panel, click on the Cursor 1 and Cursor 2 drop-down list boxes to select the channel to use as the source for that channel. Pick the color matching the channel chosen for use. The cursorʼs X and Y labels in the data line will change color to match the color of the channel selected. Move a Cursor Only the vertical line (the X value) of a cursor can be moved. The horizontal line (the Y value) will follow. • Position the cursor over the vertical cursor line. The mouse cursor will change into a left/right cursor. Click and drag the cursor to its new position. After repositioning a cursor, the readouts in the data line are updated. Bring a Cursor Into View After some zooming and panning, a cursor can end up far outside the visible region. It is easy to bring it back into view: • Right-click on the X1 or Y1 labels in the data line. From the pop-up menu, select Bring into view. 3.3.2 Oscilloscope Configuration Example This chapter gives an example on how to configure the Oscilloscope module to be used with a target application implementing a Night mode switch with a light sensor. Although this example only utilizes the SPI interface as data source, the procedure will be the same for all data sources. The target code used in this example and a description of the hardware setup can be found in Oscilloscope Example Code. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 65 To do:  Select correct tool in the DGI Control Panel. To do:  Click Connect to make a connection to the DGI on the selected tool. To do:  • Click the SPI checkbox • Open the SPI Configuration dialog by clicking the Gear button next to the SPI checkbox Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 66 To do:  • Open the configuration panel • Add an Oscilloscope module to the Data Visualizer • Drag the source connector from the interface in the DGI Control Panel into the sink for the oscilloscope channel to make a connection Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 67 The Oscilloscope module can now be used to analyze the data acquired from the light sensor when toggling a desk lamp ON and OFF above the I/O1 Xplained Pro. To do:  • Set sample rate to 100 kHz • Enable Trigger on falling Edge and set Mode to Normal • Push Start in the DGI Control Panel • Push the Run-Stop button in the Oscilloscope module After some adjustments of the trigger level by dragging it with the mouse in the oscilloscope plot area, and zooming in on the plot by adjusting the Horizontal and Vertical range, a lamp switch on event could look something like the picture below. By turning on the Cursors it is possible to measure the time it takes for the lamp to settle in the ON state. In this case, it took about 300 ms (ΔX in the plot area). Zooming further in on the plot makes it possible to use the cursors to measure the frequency of the light flickering. The 1/ΔX field in the plot area shows that the frequency is about 100 Hz, which matches well with the 50 Hz AC power of the lamp (the power switches polarity 100 times per second). Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 68 3.4 Power Debugging The Power Debugging module displays current and voltage measurements (commonly referred to as power measurements) generated by the Power interface in the DGI Control Panel. The power measurements can be combined with various other interfaces like GPIO and Code Profiling in the same graph to correlate code execution on the target MCU and power consumption of the target application. 3.4.1 Power Debugging Module The Power Debugging module displays the current consumption of a connected kit. To get started with basic current measurements, see the Basic Current Measurement chapter. For an example on how to use cursors, see Power Analysis using Cursors. For examples on how to correlate current consumption with code execution, see Code Correlation. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 69 Figure 3-17. Power Debugging 1. Current consumption graph. 2. Y-axis of channel A. 3. Channel A average and instant values. 4. Yaxis of channel B. 5. Control Panel. 6. Auto-scroll checkbox. 7. Automatically fit Y checkbox.  8. X-axis (time), unit is [minutes]:[seconds].  Important:  The Power module can only be used with the Power interface. 3.4.1.1 Scaling and Scrolling a Graph Tip:  Turn off Auto-scroll and Automatically fit Y to more closely examine a plot while it is still running. Use the scale and offset controls in order to move the plots as needed. The mouse scroll-wheel is useful in this regard: • Shift-scroll on the plot to zoom on the time (X) axis • Ctrl-scroll on the plot to zoom on the Y axis • Drag the graph to pan on the time (X) axis and move (offset) the Y axis • Drag the scales on the left and right to move respective channels in the Y axis (offset) • Ctrl-scroll on the respective axis scale to zoom that channel • Right-click and drag to select an area to zoom 3.4.1.2 Power Debugging Module Control Panel The Power Debugging module Control Panel is placed in the upper right corner of the module. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 70 Notice:  Not all configuration options in the control panel are available on all tools. For example, only the Power Debugger has both an A channel and a B channel. All options will be visible for all tools, but will have no effect unless the tool supports them. The Auto-scroll option controls the scrolling in the X-axis direction (time axis). To zoom in on and examine the graphs in detail, disable this option. The Automatically fit Y option controls whether the Data Visualizer will automatically adjust the range of the Y axis according to the graph content or not. If this option is enabled, any manual adjustments of the Y axis will be overridden. The Show zero option controls whether the zero-point of the Y axis should always be visible when Automatically fit Y is enabled. Channel Configuration For each power measurement channel there is a Channel configuration section in the Control Panel of the Power Analysis module. The channel section allows the user to enable/disable the current and voltage graphs in the Power Analysis module. Notice:  If the Enable B Channel option in the Power Configuration of the DGI Control Panel (see Power Interface) is not selected, the B channel will not be available even though the tool has a B channel. But the B channel configuration will still be visible in the Control Panel. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 71 The Range setting enables the measurement range data for the current measurement channel. To cover the full range of current values supported by the current measurement channel, most tools have two or more hardware configurations for each channel. The number of ranges for a channel varies with the connected tool. The switching between the hardware configurations is done automatically based on the instant current measured. Notice:  The range graph will only be visible if the Enable Range Source option in the Power Configuration of the DGI Control Panel is selected. The Mode option allows for different averaging algorithms to be used for the display of data if this is enabled for the current tool. Code Location The Code Location section contains no options, just the source connection. To enable code locations in the Power Analysis graph the Code Profiling interface in the DGI control panel must be enabled and the Enable Code Location option in the Code Profiling Configuration of the DGI Control Panel must be enabled. GPIO Each of the GPIO sources can be switched ON or OFF in the GPIO section of the Control Panel of the Power Analysis module. For GPIO data to be available for the Power Analysis module the GPIO interface has to be enabled in the DGI Control Panel. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 72 Cursors The Cursors section in the Power Analysis module Control Panel allows the user to enable two vertical cursors in the graph by checking the Enabled box. The cursors can be moved by using the mouse pointer to drag them along the X-axis or they can be centered by pushing the Center button. When the cursors are enabled the section of the graph between the cursors can be used for various measurements. The measurements will be shown in the Cursors section below the graph. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 73 Which measurements to be shown can be selected in the Measurements sub-section of the Cursors section in the Power Analysis module Control Panel. 3.4.2 Basic Current Measurement To do:  Select the correct tool in the DGI Control Panel. To do:  Connect to the DGI on the selected tool. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 74 To do:  Enable the Power interface and modify its settings to monitor the relevant channels. To do:  Start the Data Visualizer session. 3.4.2.1 Two Channel Measurement When using hardware with two measurement channels, the Data Visualizer will display both in the same graph (unless disabled in the Power Configuration). Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 75 On the Control panel on the right of the module the user can show or hide the current and voltage plots as well as range information when available. By default, both channels will be shown in the Power Analysis graph but each plot can be moved up or down to separate them as best suited. 3.4.2.2 Scaling and Scrolling a Graph Tip:  Turn off Auto-scroll and Automatically fit Y to more closely examine a plot while it is still running. Use the scale and offset controls in order to move the plots as needed. The mouse scroll-wheel is useful in this regard: • Shift-scroll on the plot to zoom on the time (X) axis • Ctrl-scroll on the plot to zoom on the Y axis • Drag the graph to pan on the time (X) axis and move (offset) the Y axis • Drag the scales on the left and right to move respective channels in the Y axis (offset) • Ctrl-scroll on the respective axis scale to zoom that channel • Right-click and drag to select an area to zoom 3.4.2.3 Current Averaging The Power Analysis module displays two averaged values per channel. One shows the instantaneous current value, while the other shows the average of the samples visible in the graph view. 3.4.2.4 Power Measurement Calibration To achieve full measurement accuracy on the current measurement hardware, it should be calibrated before running the measurements. The calibration procedure is started through the Power Configuration window in the Power interface in the DGI Control Panel. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 76 Figure 3-18. Triggering Power Measurement Calibration from the Power Configuration Window To start the calibration procedure, select Trigger calibration and press OK. Then follow the instructions to complete the calibration procedure for the tool. 3.4.3 Power Analysis using Cursors In order to analyze the current more closely, the cursor feature of the Power Analysis module is useful. To do:  • Open the Control Panel in the upper right corner of the Power Analysis module • Expand the Cursors section • Click the Enabled box to turn the cursors on Remember:  If the current measurements are still running, make sure to disable Auto-scroll before enabling the cursors, or else the graph view will rapidly scroll away from the cursors. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 77 The example above shows the current consumption of a target board with a LED that toggles ON and OFF regularly. The cursor data at the bottom of the module shows that the current consumption when the LED is OFF is about 354 μA, while the current consumption when the LED is ON is about 6.5 mA. The average current consumption during one period of the LED toggling is about 580 μA. As the current measurement channel is also monitoring voltage, you can measure the power consumption directly. Enable this by setting the corresponding options in the Measurements section of the Cursors section in the Control Panel of the Power Analysis module. 3.4.4 Code Correlation To optimize current consumption, current measurements must be correlated to the code execution of the application. The Data Visualizer enables code correlation by the use of GPIO instrumentation or program counter sample readout. Crucial to both these methods is the ability to show the code execution related events with the same time base and in the same graph as the current consumption. 3.4.4.1 GPIO Instrumentation By inserting simple GPIO toggling in the application code, the user can generate common reference points between the measured current and the code execution. The Data Visualizer is capable of showing the GPIO events in the same graph as the current measurements. A mass storage application will be used to demonstrate the use of GPIO instrumentation. Both Target USB and Debug USB connectors of a SAM L21 Xplained Pro board is connected to a host computer. The ATSAML21 target device is running the USB Device MSC Example from ASF for SAM L21 Xplained Pro (in Atmel Studio select File→New→Example Project and search for “MSC”). The Current Measurement jumpers on the kit are set to measure MCU current and bypass I/O current. The current graph after running a format of the mass storage device: Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 78 A disk format operation consists of both read and write operations, but with just the current it is difficult to tell what is going on when. To be able to separate the read and write operations, the application code is modified to set GPIO0 (PB01 on the ATSAML21) high on the start of a read operation and set it low at the end of the read operation. GPIO1 (PA16 on the ATSAML21) is similarly toggled for write operations. Both the GPIO interface and the Power interface must be enabled in the DGI Control Panel of the Data Visualizer as shown below. In the Control Panel of the Power Analysis module disable GPIO2 and GPIO3 as shown below. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 79 With the GPIO signals enabled, the user can distinguish the current consumption of the read and write operations. The yellow signal is GPIO0 which signals the read operations and the green signal is GPIO1 showing the write operations. 3.4.4.2 Program Counter Polling Each time the Program Counter (PC) is read out from the target, we get the exact information on the address of the code location currently being executed. The Data Visualizer can show PC values with current measurements in the same graph. This allows the user to see what is being executed by the target CPU at the various sample points of the current consumption graph. The sampled PC values will only show part of the code execution, as in most cases it is impossible to read out the PC values as fast as the target is executing instructions. The sampled values are still useful to indicate which code segment is being executed at any point in time. A SAM L21 Xplained Pro board running a Mass Storage Class example will be used to demonstrate PC polling. Both Target USB and Debug USB connectors of a SAM L21 Xplained Pro board is connected to a host computer. The ATSAML21 target device is running the USB Device MSC Example from ASF for SAM L21 Xplained Pro (in Atmel Studio select File→New→Example Project and search for “MSC”). The Current Measurement jumpers on the kit are set to measure MCU current and bypass I/O current. The current graph after running a format of the mass storage device: A disk format operation consists of both read and write operations, but from the current graph it is difficult to see what is going on when. To get more information on what is going on in the target at the various points in the current graph, the Program Counter sampling feature will be useful. To view Program Counter samples together with current measurement data both the Power interface and the Code Profiling interface must be enabled. To do:  • Enable both Power interface and Code Profiling interface in DGI Control Panel Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 80 To do:  • Open the Code Profiling Configuration dialog by clicking the Gear button on the Code Profiling interface • Select Enable Code Location A typical current graph with Program Counter sampling enabled during a format operation is shown below. The yellow points plotted on the graph represent polled Program Counter values. Their location on the y axis is a visual representation of their location in the code-space of the target device. The relative grouping of samples shows the execution of different functions. Patterns can easily be seen using this technique. Hovering over one of the samples shows the location of that sample in the Code location details box below the graph, as well as the value of the current sample at that point. Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 81 Double-clicking on one of the samples will open the editor and highlight the corresponding line of code. The highlighted sample is located in a function called udi_msc_trans_block. This function transfers data from RAM to USB. From the graph it can be seen that the current spike at the marker is generated by the execution of this function as all Program Counter samples are from the same location during this spike. 3.5 Custom Dashboard The Dashboard module is a customizable Graphical User Interface (GUI) panel. It can be used to control and display parameters from the target application. 3.5.1 Dashboard Module The Dashboard module is a customizable Graphical User Interface (GUI) panel. It can be used to control and display parameters from the application firmware. Elements (button, label, slider, etc.) are placed in the dashboard area to form the GUI. Each element can have an endpoint associated with it to send or Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 82 receive values. A slider, for example, has a source that outputs the slider position as a numeric value. Endpoints are shown when the Show Endpoints option is selected. For an example on how to configure a dashboard, see Dashboard Configuration Example. Figure 3-19. Dashboard 1. Dashboard area. 2. Edit checkbox. 3. Show Endpoints checkbox. 4. Height adjustment tab.  3.5.1.1 Edit Panel When going into Edit mode (by selecting the Edit box), the Edit panel will become visible. Here the user can customize the dashboard.

The Configuration window will list the configurable parameters for the selected element. • Change the parameters to the desired value • Click the Set button Moving Elements All parameters related to position and size are available in the element configurations. Elements can also be moved by dragging them around in the dashboard area in Edit mode. Resizing can be done by dragging the black tab in the corner after selecting an element. Deleting Elements To delete unwanted elements, simply select the element by left-clicking it, and then right-click it to delete. Important:  This action is permanent, and all configuration is lost after deletion. Loading and Saving The dashboard can be saved by clicking the Save button in Edit mode. All elements and configuration parameters, in addition to dashboard background color, will be stored. To load a dashboard, click the Load button and browse to a valid dashboard save file. The saved file is a text file but could have any file extension containing all configuration parameters for each dashboard element enclosed in curly brackets {} and separated by a semicolon. Each line corresponds to one configuration parameter and the format of each parameter is a list of decimal byte values separated by commas. Each configuration parameter is given by the Least Significant Byte first. The order of the configuration parameters are the same as the order of the configuration parameters in the Configuration window when the Edit option for the dashboard is selected. Comments are marked by Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 85 double forward slashes "//" and the rest of the line is ignored by the parser when encountering double slashes. A simple example of a saved dashboard configuration is given below. A more complex example can be found in Auto-Configuration Example. The file content of the saved configuration for this dashboard is given below. { 0, '\0', 0, 255, 255, 255, 158, 0, }; { 0, // Dashboard ID 0, // Element ID DB_TYPE_LABEL, // Element Type 0, // Z-Index (GUI stack order) 61, 0, // X-coordinate 46, 0, // Y-coordinate 122, 0, // Width 17, 0, // Height 12, // Font Size 1, 0, // Horizontal Alignment 0, // Vertical Alignment 0, 255, 255, 255, // Background Color 255, 0, 0, 0, // Foreground Color 'T', 'E', 'S', 'T', ' ', 'D', 'A', 'S', 'H', 'B', 'O', 'A', 'R', 'D', '\0', // Text }; { 0, // Dashboard ID 1, // Element ID DB_TYPE_BUTTON, // Element Type 0, // Z-Index (GUI stack order) 61, 0, // X-coordinate 70, 0, // Y-coordinate 75, 0, // Width 25, 0, // Height 12, // Font Size 'B', 'u', 't', 't', 'o', 'n', '\0', // Text 0, }; The first element in the file is the dashboard itself. The first line defines the Dashboard ID (0). Then follows the Title of the dashboard (empty string), the background color of the dashboard (Alpha = 0x00, Red = 0xFF, Green = 0xFF and Blue = 0xFF), and the height of the dashboard (two byte value, LSB first; 152, 0 => 152 = 0x0098 pixels). Data Visualizer © 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS40001903B-page 86 The following elements are the Label element and the Button element. Note that strings are null terminated (\0). Checkboxes are usually grouped and only one bit per checkbox is used to indicate the checkbox state. For example, for the Label element there are two checkboxes following each other in the Edit window, one named Bold and one Italic. These are combined into one Configuration byte with bit 0 giving the state of the Bold checkbox and bit 1 giving the state of the Italic checkbox.

Overview The Atmel ATmega16HVB/32HVB is a monitoring and protection circuit for 3- and 4-cell Li-ion applications with focus on highest safety including safe authentication, low cost and high utilization of the cell energy. The device contains secure authentication features as well as autonomous battery protection during charging and discharging. The External Protection Input can be used to implement other battery protection mechanisms using external components, for example, protection against chargers with too high charge voltage can be easily implemented with a few low cost passive components. The feature set makes the ATmega16HVB/32HVB a key component in any system focusing on high security, battery protection, high system utilization and low cost. Figure 2-1. Block diagram. ATmega16HVB/32HVB provides the necessary redundancy on-chip to make sure that the battery is protected in critical failure modes. The chip is specifically designed to provide safety for the battery cells in case of pin shorting, loss of power (either caused by battery pack short or VCC short), illegal charger connection or software runaway. This makes ATmega16HVB/32HVB the ideal one-chip solution for applications with focus on high safety. The ATmega16HVB/32HVB features an integrated voltage regulator that operates at a wide range of input voltages, 4 - 18 volts.

The regulator capabilities, combined with an extremely low power consumption in the power saving modes, greatly enhances the cell energy utilization compared to existing solutions. The chip utilizes the Atmel patented Deep Under-voltage Recovery (DUVR) mode that supports pre-charging of deeply discharged battery cells without using a separate Pre-charge FET. DUVR mode cannot be used in 2-cell applications. Optionally, Pre-charge FETs are supported for integration into many existing battery charging schemes. The battery protection monitors the charge and discharge current to detect illegal conditions and protect the battery from these when required. A 12-bit Voltage ADC allows software to monitor each cell voltage individually with high accuracy. The ADC also provides one internal input channel to measure on-chip temperature and two input channels intended for external thermistors. An 18-bit ADC optimized for Coulomb Counting accumulates charge and discharge currents and reports accumulated current with high resolution and accuracy. It can also be used to provide instantaneous current measurements with 13-bit resolution. Integrated Cell Balancing FETs allow cell balancing algorithms to be implemented in software. The MCU provides the following features: 16K/32Kbytes of In-System Programmable Flash with Read-While-Write capabilities, 512/1Kbytes EEPROM, 1K/2Kbytes SRAM. 32 general purpose working registers, 12 general purpose I/O lines, five general purpose high voltage open drain I/O lines, one general purpose super high voltage open drain output, debugWIRE for on-chip debugging and SPI for In-system Programming, a SM-Bus compliant TWI module, two flexible Timer/Counters with Input Capture and compare modes. Internal and external interrupts, a 12-bit Sigma Delta ADC for voltage and temperature measurements, a high resolution Sigma Delta ADC for Coulomb Counting and instantaneous current measurements, integrated cell balancing FETs, Additional Secure Authentication Features, an autonomous Battery Protection module, a programmable Watchdog Timer with internal Oscillator, and software selectable power saving modes. The AVR core combines a rich instruction set with 32 general purpose working registers. All the 32 registers are directly connected to the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), allowing two independent registers to be accessed in one single instruction executed in one clock cycle. The resulting architecture is more code efficient while achieving throughputs up to ten times faster than conventional CISC microcontrollers. The device is manufactured using the Atmel high voltage high density non-volatile memory technology. The On-chip ISP Flash allows the program memory to be reprogrammed In-System, through an SPI serial interface, by a conventional non-volatile memory programmer or by an Onchip Boot program running on the AVR core. The Boot program can use any interface to download the application program in the Application Flash memory. Software in the Boot Flash section will continue to run while the Application Flash section is updated, providing true ReadWhile-Write operation.

The Atmel ATmega16HVB/32HVB is a powerful microcontroller that provides a highly flexible and cost effective solution. It is part of the AVR Battery Management family that provides secure authentication, highly accurate monitoring and autonomous protection for Lithium-ion battery cells. The ATmega16HVB/32HVB AVR is supported with a full suite of program and system development tools including: C Compilers, Macro Assemblers, Program Debugger/Simulators, and Onchip Debugger. 7 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB 2.1 Comparison between the Atmel ATmega16HVB and the Atmel ATmega32HVB The ATmega16HVB and the ATmega32HVB differ only in memory size for flash, EEPROM and internal SRAM.

About code examples This documentation contains simple code examples that briefly show how to use various parts of the device. These code examples assume that the part specific header file is included before compilation. Be aware that not all C compiler vendors include bit definitions in the header files and interrupt handling in C is compiler dependent. Please confirm with the C compiler documentation for more details. For I/O registers located in extended I/O map, “IN”, “OUT”, “SBIS”, “SBIC”, “CBI”, and “SBI” instructions must be replaced with instructions that allow access to extended I/O. Typically “LDS” and “STS” combined with “SBRS”, “SBRC”, “SBR”, and “CBR”. 6. Data retention Reliability Qualification results show that the projected data retention failure rate is much less than one PPM over 20 years at 85°C or 100 years at 25°C. 9 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB 7. AVR CPU core 7.1 Overview This section discusses the Atmel AVR core architecture in general. The main function of the CPU core is to ensure correct program execution. The CPU must therefore be able to access memories, perform calculations, control peripherals, and handle interrupts. Figure 7-1. Block diagram of the AVR architecture. In order to maximize performance and parallelism, the AVR uses a Harvard architecture – with separate memories and buses for program and data. Instructions in the program memory are executed with a single level pipelining. While one instruction is being executed, the next instruction is pre-fetched from the program memory. This concept enables instructions to be executed in every clock cycle. The program memory is In-System Reprogrammable Flash memory. The fast-access Register File contains 32 × 8-bit general purpose working registers with a single clock cycle access time. This allows single-cycle Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) operation. In a typFlash Program Memory Instruction Register Instruction Decoder Program Counter Control Lines 32 x 8 General Purpose Registrers ALU Status and Control I/O Lines EEPROM Data Bus 8-bit Data SRAM Direct Addressing Indirect Addressing Interrupt Unit Watchdog Timer I/O Module 2 I/O Module1 I/O Module n 10 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB ical ALU operation, two operands are output from the Register File, the operation is executed, and the result is stored back in the Register File – in one clock cycle. Six of the 32 registers can be used as three 16-bit indirect address register pointers for Data Space addressing – enabling efficient address calculations. One of the these address pointers can also be used as an address pointer for look up tables in Flash program memory. These added function registers are the 16-bit X-register, Y-register, and Z-register, described later in this section. The ALU supports arithmetic and logic operations between registers or between a constant and a register. Single register operations can also be executed in the ALU. After an arithmetic operation, the Status Register is updated to reflect information about the result of the operation. Program flow is provided by conditional and unconditional jump and call instructions, able to directly address the whole address space. Most AVR instructions have a single 16-bit word format. Every program memory address contains a 16-bit or 32-bit instruction. During interrupts and subroutine calls, the return address Program Counter (PC) is stored on the Stack. The Stack is effectively allocated in the general data SRAM, and consequently the Stack size is only limited by the total SRAM size and the usage of the SRAM. All user programs must initialize the SP in the Reset routine (before subroutines or interrupts are executed). The Stack Pointer (SP) is read/write accessible in the I/O space. The data SRAM can easily be accessed through the five different addressing modes supported in the AVR architecture. The memory spaces in the AVR architecture are all linear and regular memory maps. A flexible interrupt module has its control registers in the I/O space with an additional Global Interrupt Enable bit in the Status Register. All interrupts have a separate Interrupt Vector in the Interrupt Vector table. The interrupts have priority in accordance with their Interrupt Vector position. The lower the Interrupt Vector address, the higher the priority. The I/O memory space contains 64 addresses for CPU peripheral functions as Control Registers, SPI, and other I/O functions. The I/O Memory can be accessed directly, or as the Data Space locations following those of the Register File, 0x20 - 0x5F. In addition, the Atmel ATmega16HVB/32HVB has Extended I/O space from 0x60 - 0xFF in SRAM where only the ST/STS/STD and LD/LDS/LDD instructions can be used. 7.2 ALU – Arithmetic Logic Unit The high-performance AVR ALU operates in direct connection with all the 32 general purpose working registers. Within a single clock cycle, arithmetic operations between general purpose registers or between a register and an immediate are executed. The ALU operations are divided into three main categories – arithmetic, logical, and bit-functions. Some implementations of the architecture also provide a powerful multiplier supporting both signed/unsigned multiplication and fractional format. See ”Instruction set summary” on page 259 for a detailed description. 7.3 Status Register The Status Register contains information about the result of the most recently executed arithmetic instruction. This information can be used for altering program flow in order to perform conditional operations. Note that the Status Register is updated after all ALU operations, as specified in the Instruction Set Reference. This will in many cases remove the need for using the dedicated compare instructions, resulting in faster and more compact code. 11 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB The Status Register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine and restored when returning from an interrupt. This must be handled by software. 7.3.1 SREG – AVR Status Register • Bit 7 – I: Global Interrupt Enable The Global Interrupt Enable bit must be set for the interrupts to be enabled. The individual interrupt enable control is then performed in separate control registers. If the Global Interrupt Enable Register is cleared, none of the interrupts are enabled independent of the individual interrupt enable settings. The I-bit is cleared by hardware after an interrupt has occurred, and is set by the RETI instruction to enable subsequent interrupts. The I-bit can also be set and cleared by the application with the SEI and CLI instructions, as described in the Instruction Set Reference. • Bit 6 – T: Bit Copy Storage The Bit Copy instructions BLD (Bit LoaD) and BST (Bit STore) use the T-bit as source or destination for the operated bit. A bit from a register in the Register File can be copied into T by the BST instruction, and a bit in T can be copied into a bit in a register in the Register File by the BLD instruction. • Bit 5 – H: Half Carry Flag The Half Carry Flag H indicates a Half Carry in some arithmetic operations. Half Carry is useful in BCD arithmetic. See the “Instruction Set Description” for detailed information. • Bit 4 – S: Sign Bit, S = N V The S-bit is always an exclusive or between the negative flag N and the Two’s Complement Overflow Flag V. See the “Instruction Set Description” for detailed information. • Bit 3 – V: Two’s Complement Overflow Flag The Two’s Complement Overflow Flag V supports two’s complement arithmetics. See the “Instruction Set Description” for detailed information. • Bit 2 – N: Negative Flag The Negative Flag N indicates a negative result in an arithmetic or logic operation. See the “Instruction Set Description” for detailed information. • Bit 1 – Z: Zero Flag The Zero Flag Z indicates a zero result in an arithmetic or logic operation. See the “Instruction Set Description” for detailed information. • Bit 0 – C: Carry Flag The Carry Flag C indicates a carry in an arithmetic or logic operation.

In order to achieve the required performance and flexibility, the following input/output schemes are supported by the Register File: • One 8-bit output operand and one 8-bit result input • Two 8-bit output operands and one 8-bit result input • Two 8-bit output operands and one 16-bit result input • One 16-bit output operand and one 16-bit result input Figure 7-2 shows the structure of the 32 general purpose working registers in the CPU. Figure 7-2. AVR CPU General Purpose Working Registers. Most of the instructions operating on the Register File have direct access to all registers, and most of them are single cycle instructions. As shown in Figure 7-2, each register is also assigned a data memory address, mapping them directly into the first 32 locations of the user Data Space. Although not being physically implemented as SRAM locations, this memory organization provides great flexibility in access of the registers, as the X-pointer, Y-pointer and Z-pointer registers can be set to index any register in the file. 7.4.1 The X-register, Y-register, and Z-register The registers R26..R31 have some added functions to their general purpose usage. These registers are 16-bit address pointers for indirect addressing of the data space. The three indirect address registers X, Y, and Z are defined as described in Figure 7-3 on page 13. 7 0 Addr.

The X-register, Y-register, and Z-registers. In the different addressing modes these address registers have functions as fixed displacement, automatic increment, and automatic decrement (see the Instruction Set Reference for details). 7.5 Stack Pointer The Stack is mainly used for storing temporary data, for storing local variables and for storing return addresses after interrupts and subroutine calls. The Stack Pointer Register always points to the top of the Stack. Note that the Stack is implemented as growing from higher memory locations to lower memory locations. This implies that a Stack PUSH command decreases the Stack Pointer. The Stack Pointer points to the data SRAM Stack area where the Subroutine and Interrupt Stacks are located. This Stack space in the data SRAM must be defined by the program before any subroutine calls are executed or interrupts are enabled. The Stack Pointer must be set to point above 0x100. The Stack Pointer is decremented by one when data is pushed onto the Stack with the PUSH instruction, and it is decremented by two when the return address is pushed onto the Stack with subroutine call or interrupt. The Stack Pointer is incremented by one when data is popped from the Stack with the POP instruction, and it is incremented by two when data is popped from the Stack with return from subroutine RET or return from interrupt RETI. The AVR Stack Pointer is implemented as two 8-bit registers in the I/O space. The number of bits actually used is implementation dependent. Note that the data space in some implementations of the AVR architecture is so small that only SPL is needed. In this case, the SPH Register will not be present. 7.5.1 SPH and SPL – Stack Pointer High and Stack Pointer Low 15 XH XL 0 X-register 7 0 7 0 R27 (0x1B) R26 (0x1A) 15 YH YL 0 Y-register 7 0 7 0 R29 (0x1D) R28 (0x1C) 15 ZH ZL 0 Z-register 7 0 7 0 R31 (0x1F) R30 (0x1E) Bit 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 0x3E (0x5E) SP15 SP14 SP13 SP12 SP11 SP10 SP9 SP8 SPH 0x3D (0x5D) SP7 SP6 SP5 SP4 SP3 SP2 SP1 SP0 SPL 76543210 Read/Write R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W Initial Value RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND RAMEND 14 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB 7.6 Instruction execution timing This section describes the general access timing concepts for instruction execution. The Atmel AVR CPU is driven by the CPU clock clkCPU, directly generated from the selected clock source for the chip. No internal clock division is used. Figure 7-4 shows the parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions enabled by the Harvard architecture and the fast-access Register File concept. This is the basic pipelining concept to obtain up to one MIPS per MHz with the corresponding unique results for functions per cost, functions per clocks, and functions per power-unit. Figure 7-4. The parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions. Figure 7-5 shows the internal timing concept for the Register File. In a single clock cycle an ALU operation using two register operands is executed, and the result is stored back to the destination register. Figure 7-5. Single cycle ALU pperation. 7.7 Reset and interrupt handling The AVR provides several different interrupt sources. These interrupts and the separate Reset Vector each have a separate program vector in the program memory space. All interrupts are assigned individual enable bits which must be written logic one together with the Global Interrupt Enable bit in the Status Register in order to enable the interrupt. The lowest addresses in the program memory space are by default defined as the Reset and Interrupt Vectors. The complete list of vectors is shown in ”Interrupts” on page 52. The list also determines the priority levels of the different interrupts. The lower the address the higher is the priority level. RESET has the highest priority. clk 1st Instruction Fetch 1st Instruction Execute 2nd Instruction Fetch 2nd Instruction Execute 3rd Instruction Fetch 3rd Instruction Execute 4th Instruction Fetch T1 T2 T3 T4 CPU Total Execution Time Register Operands Fetch ALU Operation Execute Result Write Back T1 T2 T3 T4 clkCPU 15 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB When an interrupt occurs, the Global Interrupt Enable I-bit is cleared and all interrupts are disabled. The user software can write logic one to the I-bit to enable nested interrupts. All enabled interrupts can then interrupt the current interrupt routine. The I-bit is automatically set when a Return from Interrupt instruction – RETI – is executed. There are basically two types of interrupts. The first type is triggered by an event that sets the interrupt flag. For these interrupts, the Program Counter is vectored to the actual Interrupt Vector in order to execute the interrupt handling routine, and hardware clears the corresponding interrupt flag. Interrupt flags can also be cleared by writing a logic one to the flag bit position(s) to be cleared. If an interrupt condition occurs while the corresponding interrupt enable bit is cleared, the interrupt flag will be set and remembered until the interrupt is enabled, or the flag is cleared by software. Similarly, if one or more interrupt conditions occur while the Global Interrupt Enable bit is cleared, the corresponding interrupt flag(s) will be set and remembered until the Global Interrupt Enable bit is set, and will then be executed by order of priority. The second type of interrupts will trigger as long as the interrupt condition is present. These interrupts do not necessarily have interrupt flags. If the interrupt condition disappears before the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt will not be triggered. When the AVR exits from an interrupt, it will always return to the main program and execute one more instruction before any pending interrupt is served. Note that the Status Register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine, nor restored when returning from an interrupt routine. This must be handled by software. When using the CLI instruction to disable interrupts, the interrupts will be immediately disabled. No interrupt will be executed after the CLI instruction, even if it occurs simultaneously with the CLI instruction. The following example shows how this can be used to avoid interrupts during the timed EEPROM write sequence.

When this bit is set (one), the Interrupt Vectors are moved to the beginning of the Boot Loader section of the Flash. The actual address of the start of the Boot Flash Section is determined by the BOOTSZ Fuses. Refer to the section ”Boot loader support – Read-while-write selfprogramming” on page 188 for details. To avoid unintentional changes of Interrupt Vector tables, a special write procedure must be followed to change the IVSEL bit: a. Write the Interrupt Vector Change Enable (IVCE) bit to one. b. Within four cycles, write the desired value to IVSEL while writing a zero to IVCE. Interrupts will automatically be disabled while this sequence is executed. Interrupts are disabled in the cycle IVCE is set, and they remain disabled until after the instruction following the write to IVSEL. If IVSEL is not written, interrupts remain disabled for four cycles. The I-bit in the Status Register is unaffected by the automatic disabling. Note: If Interrupt Vectors are placed in the Boot Loader section and Boot Lock bit BLB02 is programmed, interrupts are disabled while executing from the Application section. If Interrupt Vectors are placed in the Application section and Boot Lock bit BLB12 is programed, interrupts are disAssembly code example Move_interrupts: ; Enable change of Interrupt Vectors ldi r16, (1< CSn2:0 > 1). The number of system clock cycles from when the timer is enabled to the first count occurs can be from 1 to N+1 system clock cycles, where N equals the prescaler divisor (8, 64, 256, or 1024). It is possible to use the prescaler reset for synchronizing the Timer/Counter to program execution. However, care must be taken if the other Timer/Counter that shares the same prescaler also uses prescaling. A prescaler reset will affect the prescaler period for all Timer/Counters it is connected to. Figure 16-1. Prescaler for timer/counter. PSRSYNC Clear clkTn Tn clkI/O Synchronization CSn0 CSn1 CSn2 n 80 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB 16.2 External clock source An external clock source applied to the Tn pin can be used as Timer/Counter clock (clkTn). The Tn pin is sampled once every system clock cycle by the pin synchronization logic. The synchronized (sampled) signal is then passed through the edge detector. Figure 16-2 shows a functional equivalent block diagram of the Tn synchronization and edge detector logic. The registers are clocked at the positive edge of the internal system clock (clkI/O). The latch is transparent in the high period of the internal system clock. The edge detector generates one clkTn pulse for each positive (CSn2:0 = 7) or negative (CSn2:0 = 6) edge it detects. See Table 16-1 on page 81 for details. Figure 16-2. Tn pin sampling. The synchronization and edge detector logic introduces a delay of 2.5 to 3.5 system clock cycles from an edge has been applied to the Tn pin to the counter is updated. Enabling and disabling of the clock input must be done when Tn has been stable for at least one system clock cycle, otherwise it is a risk that a false Timer/Counter clock pulse is generated. Each half period of the external clock applied must be longer than one system clock cycle to ensure correct sampling. The external clock must be guaranteed to have less than half the system clock frequency (fExtClk < fclk_I/O/2) given a 50/50% duty cycle. Since the edge detector uses sampling, the maximum frequency of an external clock it can detect is half the sampling frequency (Nyquist sampling theorem). However, due to variation of the system clock frequency and duty cycle caused by Oscillator source (crystal, resonator, and capacitors) tolerances, it is recommended that maximum frequency of an external clock source is less than fclk_I/O/2.5. An external clock source can not be prescaled. Note: The synchronization logic on the input pins (Tn) is shown in Figure 16-2.

If external pin modes are used for the Timer/Counter n, transitions on the Tn pin will clock the counter even if the pin is configured as an output. This feature allows software control of the counting. 16.3.2 General Timer/Counter Control Register – GTCCR • Bit 7 – TSM: Timer/Counter Synchronization Mode Writing the TSM bit to one activates the Timer/Counter Synchronization mode. In this mode, the value that is written to the PSRSYNC bit is kept, hence keeping the corresponding prescaler reset signals asserted. This ensures that the corresponding Timer/Counters are halted and can be configured to the same value without the risk of one of them advancing during configuration. When the TSM bit is written to zero the PSRSYNC bit is cleared by hardware, and the Timer/Counters start counting simultaneously. • Bit 0 – PSRSYNC: Prescaler Reset When this bit is one, Timer/Counter1 and Timer/Counter0 prescaler will be Reset. This bit is normally cleared immediately by hardware, except if the TSM bit is set. Note that Timer/Counter1 and Timer/Counter0 share the same prescaler and a reset of this prescaler will affect both timers.

The Atmel ATmega16HVB/32HVB has two Timer/Counters, Timer/Counter0 and Timer/Counter1. The functionality for both Timer/Counters is described below. Timer/Counter0 and Timer/Counter1 have different Timer/Counter registers, as shown in ”Register summary” on page 255. The Timer/Counter general operation is described in 8-bit/16-bit mode. A simplified block diagram of the 8-bit/16-bit Timer/Counter is shown in Figure 17-1. CPU accessible I/O Registers, including I/O bits and I/O pins, are shown in bold. The device-specific I/O Register and bit locations are listed in the ”Register description” on page 94. Figure 17-1. 8-bit/16-bit timer/counter block diagram. 17.2.1 Registers The Timer/Counter Low Byte Register (TCNTnL) and Output Compare Registers (OCRnA and OCRnB) are 8-bit registers. Interrupt request (abbreviated to Int.Req. in Figure 17-1) signals are all visible in the Timer Interrupt Flag Register (TIFR). All interrupts are individually masked with the Timer Interrupt Mask Register (TIMSK). TIFR and TIMSK are not shown in the figure. In 16-bit mode the Timer/Counter consists one more 8-bit register, the Timer/Counter High Byte Register (TCNTnH). Furthermore, there is only one Output Compare Unit in 16-bit mode as the two Output Compare Registers, OCRnA and OCRnB, are combined to one 16-bit Output ComClock Select Timer/Counter DATA BUS OCRnB = TCNTnL Noise Canceler ICPn0 = Edge Detector Control Logic TOP Count Clear TOVn (Int.

OCRnA contains the low byte of the word and OCRnB contains the higher byte of the word. When accessing 16-bit registers, special procedures described in section ”Accessing registers in 16-bit mode” on page 90 must be followed. The Timer/Counter can be clocked internally, via the prescaler, or by an external clock source on the Tn pin. The Clock Select logic block controls which clock source and edge the Timer/Counter uses to increment its value. The Timer/Counter is inactive when no clock source is selected. The output from the Clock Select logic is referred to as the timer clock (clkTn). 17.2.2 Definitions Many register and bit references in this section are written in general form. A lower case “n” replaces the module number, for example Timer/Counter number. A lower case “x” replaces the unit, for example OCRnx and ICPnx describes OCRnA/B and ICP1/0x . However, when using the register or bit defines in a program, the precise form must be used, that is, TCNT0L for accessing Timer/Counter0 counter value and so on. The definitions in Table 17-1 are also used extensively throughout the document. 17.3 Timer/Counter clock sources The Timer/Counter can be clocked internally, via the prescaler, or by an external clock source. The Clock Select logic is controlled by the Clock Select (CSn2:0) bits located in the Timer/Counter Control Register n B (TCCRnB), and controls which clock source and edge the Timer/Counter uses to increment its value. The Timer/Counter is inactive when no clock source is selected. The output from the Clock Select logic is referred to as the timer clock (clkTn). For details on clock sources and prescaler, see ”Timer/Counter0 and Timer/Counter1 prescalers” on page 79. 17.4 Counter unit The main part of the 8-bit Timer/Counter is the counter unit. Figure 17-2 shows a block diagram of the counter and its surroundings. Figure 17-2. Counter unit block diagram. Table 17-1. Definitions. BOTTOM The counter reaches the BOTTOM when it becomes 0 MAX The counter reaches its MAXimum when it becomes 0xFF (decimal 255) in 8-bit mode or 0xFFFF (decimal 65535) in 16-bit mode TOP The counter reaches the TOP when it becomes equal to the highest value in the count sequence. The TOP value can be assigned to be the fixed value 0xFF/0xFFFF (MAX) or the value stored in the OCRnA Register DATA BUS TCNTn Control Logic count TOVn (Int.Req.) Clock Select top Tn Edge Detector ( From Prescaler ) clkTn 84 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB Signal description (internal signals): count Increment or decrement TCNTn by one clkTn Timer/Counter clock, referred to as clkTn in the following top Signalize that TCNTn has reached maximum value The counter is incremented at each timer clock (clkTn) until it passes its TOP value and then restarts from BOTTOM. The counting sequence is determined by the setting of the WGMn0 bits located in the Timer/Counter Control Register (TCCRnA). For more details about counting sequences, see ”Timer/counter timing diagrams” on page 89. clkTn can be generated from an external or internal clock source, selected by the Clock Select bits (CSn2:0). When no clock source is selected (CSn2:0 = 0) the timer is stopped. However, the TCNTn value can be accessed by the CPU, regardless of whether clkTn is present or not. A CPU write overrides (has priority over) all counter clear or count operations. The Timer/Counter Overflow Flag (TOVn) is set when the counter reaches the maximum value and it can be used for generating a CPU interrupt. 17.5 Modes of operation The mode of operation is defined by the Timer/Counter Width (TCWn), Input Capture Enable (ICENn) and the Waveform Generation Mode (WGMn0) bits in ”TCCRnA – Timer/Counter n Control Register A” on page 94. Table 17-2 shows the different Modes of Operation. 17.5.1 Normal 8-bit mode In the normal mode, the counter (TCNTnL) is incrementing until it overruns when it passes its maximum 8-bit value (MAX = 0xFF) and then restarts from the bottom (0x00), see Table 17-2 for bit settings. The Overflow Flag (TOVn) will be set in the same timer clock cycle as the TCNTnL becomes zero. The TOVn Flag in this case behaves like a ninth bit, except that it is only set, not cleared. However, combined with the timer overflow interrupt that automatically clears the TOVn Flag, the timer resolution can be increased by software. There are no special cases to consider in the Normal 8-bit mode, a new counter value can be written anytime. The Output Compare Unit can be used to generate interrupts at some given time. 17.5.2 Clear timer on Compare Match (CTC) 8-bit mode In Clear Timer on Compare or CTC mode, the OCRnA Register is used to manipulate the counter resolution, see Table 17-2 for bit settings. In CTC mode the counter is cleared to zero when Table 17-2. Modes of operation. Mode ICENn TCWn WGMn0 Timer/counter mode of operation TOP Update of OCRx at TOV flag set on 0 0 0 0 Normal 8-bit Mode 0xFF Immediate MAX (0xFF) 1 0 0 1 8-bit CTC OCRnA Immediate MAX (0xFF) 2 0 1 0 16-bit Mode 0xFFFF Immediate MAX (0xFFFF) 3 0 1 1 16-bit CTC OCRnB, OCRnA Immediate MAX (0xFFFF) 410 0 8-bit Input Capture mode 0xFF – MAX (0xFF) 511 0 16-bit Input Capture mode 0xFFFF – MAX (0xFFFF) 85 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB the counter value (TCNTn) matches the OCRnA. The OCRnA defines the top value for the counter, hence also its resolution. This mode allows greater control of the Compare Match output frequency. It also simplifies the operation of counting external events. The timing diagram for the CTC mode is shown in Figure 17-3. The counter value (TCNTn) increases until a Compare Match occurs between TCNTn and OCRnA, and then counter (TCNTn) is cleared. Figure 17-3. CTC Mode, timing diagram. An interrupt can be generated each time the counter value reaches the TOP value by using the OCFnA Flag. If the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the TOP value. However, changing TOP to a value close to BOTTOM when the counter is running with none or a low prescaler value must be done with care since the CTC mode does not have the double buffering feature. If the new value written to OCRnA is lower than the current value of TCNTn, the counter will miss the Compare Match. The counter will then have to count to its maximum value (0xFF) and wrap around starting at 0x00 before the Compare Match can occur. As for the Normal mode of operation, the TOVn Flag is set in the same timer clock cycle that the counter counts from MAX to 0x00. 17.5.3 16-bit mode In 16-bit mode, the counter (TCNTnH/L) is a incrementing until it overruns when it passes its maximum 16-bit value (MAX = 0xFFFF) and then restarts from the bottom (0x0000), see Table 17-2 on page 84 for bit settings. The Overflow Flag (TOVn) will be set in the same timer clock cycle as the TCNTnH/L becomes zero. The TOVn Flag in this case behaves like a 17th bit, except that it is only set, not cleared. However, combined with the timer overflow interrupt that automatically clears the TOVn Flag, the timer resolution can be increased by software. There are no special cases to consider in the Normal mode, a new counter value can be written anytime. The Output Compare Unit can be used to generate interrupts at some given time. 17.5.4 Clear timer on Compare Match (CTC) 16-bit mode In Clear Timer on Compare 16-bit mode, OCRAnA/B Registers are used to manipulate the counter resolution, see Table 17-2 on page 84 for bit settings. In CTC mode the counter is cleared to zero when the counter value (TCNTn) matches OCRnA/B, where OCRnB represents the eight most significant bits and OCRnA represents the eight least significant bits. OCRnA/B defines the top value of the counter, hence also its resolution. This mode allows greater control of the Compare Match output frequency. It also simplifies the operation of counting external events. An interrupt can be generated each time the counter reaches the TOP value by using the OCFnA flag. If the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the TOP value. However, changing the TOP to a value close the BOTTOM when the counter is running with none or a low prescaler value must be done with care since the CTC mode does not have the double buffering feature. If the new value written to OCRnA/B is lower than the current TCNTn OCnx Interrupt Flag Set Period 1 2 3 4 86 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB value of TCNTn, the counter will miss the Compare Match. The counter will then have to count to its maximum value (0xFFFF) and wrap around starting at 0x0000 before Compare Match can occur. As for the 16-bit Mode, the TOVn Flag is set in the same timer clock cycle that the counter counts from MAX to 0x0000. 17.5.5 8-bit Input capture mode The Timer/Counter can be used in a 8-bit Input Capture mode, see Table 17-2 on page 84 for bit settings. For full description, see “Input capture unit” . 17.5.6 16-bit input capture mode The Timer/Counter can also be used in a 16-bit Input Capture mode, see Table 17-2 on page 84 for bit settings. For full description, see “Input capture unit” . 17.6 Input capture unit The Timer/Counter incorporates an Input Capture unit that can capture external events and give them a time-stamp indicating time of occurrence. The external signal indicates an event, or multiple events. For Timer/Counter0, the events can be applied via the PB0 pin (ICP00), or alternatively via the osi_posedge pin on the Oscillator Sampling Interface (ICP01). For Timer/Counter1, the events can be applied by the Battery Protection Interrupt (ICP10) or alternatively by the Voltage Regulator Interrupt (ICP11). The time-stamps can then be used to calculate frequency, duty-cycle, and other features of the signal applied. Alternatively the timestamps can be used for creating a log of the events. The Input Capture unit is illustrated by the block diagram shown in Figure 17-4. The elements of the block diagram that are not directly a part of the Input Capture unit are gray shaded. Figure 17-4. Input Capture Unit block diagram. The Output Compare Register OCRnA is a dual-purpose register that is also used as an 8-bit Input Capture Register ICRn. In 16-bit Input Capture mode the Output Compare Register OCRnB serves as the high byte of the Input Capture Register ICRn. In 8-bit Input Capture mode the Output Compare Register OCRnB is free to be used as a normal Output Compare Register, but in 16-bit Input Capture mode the Output Compare Unit cannot be used as there are no free Output Compare Register(s). Even though the Input Capture register is called ICRn in this secICFn (Int.Req.) WRITE ICRn (16-bit Register) OCRnB (8-bit) Noise Canceler ICPn0 Edge Detector TEMP (8-bit) DATA BUS (8-bit) OCRnA (8-bit) TCNTn (16-bit Counter) TCNTnH (8-bit) TCNTnL (8-bit) ICNCn ICESn ICPn1 ICSn 87 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB tion, it is referring to the Output Compare Register(s). For more information on how to access the 16-bit registers refer to ”Accessing registers in 16-bit mode” on page 90. When a change of the logic level (an event) occurs on the Input Capture pin (ICPx), and this change confirms to the setting of the edge detector, a capture will be triggered. When a capture is triggered, the value of the counter (TCNTn) is written to the Input Capture Register (ICRn). The Input Capture Flag (ICFn) is set at the same system clock as the TCNTn value is copied into Input Capture Register. If enabled (TICIEn=1), the Input Capture Flag generates an Input Capture interrupt. The ICFn flag is automatically cleared when the interrupt is executed. Alternatively the ICFn flag can be cleared by software by writing a logical one to its I/O bit location. 17.6.1 Input Capture trigger source The default trigger source for the Input Capture unit is the I/O port PB0 in Timer/Counter0 and the Battery Protection Interrupt in Timer/Counter1. Alternatively can the osi_posedge pin on the Oscillator Sampling Interface in Timer/Counter0 and Voltage Regulator Interrupt in Timer/Counter1 be used as trigger sources. The osi_posedge pin in Timer/Counter0 Control Register A (TCCR0A) and the Voltage Regulator Interrupt bit in the Timer/Counter1 Control Register A (TCCR1A) is selected as trigger sources by setting the Input Capture Select (ICS0/1) bit. Be aware that changing trigger source can trigger a capture. The Input Capture Flag must therefore be cleared after the change. Both Input Capture inputs are sampled using the same technique. The edge detector is also identical. However, when the noise canceler is enabled, additional logic is inserted before the edge detector, which increases the delay by four system clock cycles. An Input Capture on Timer/Counter0 can also be triggered by software by controlling the port of the PB0 pin. 17.6.2 Noise canceler The noise canceler improves noise immunity by using a simple digital filtering scheme. The noise canceler input is monitored over four samples, and all four must be equal for changing the output that in turn is used by the edge detector. The noise canceler is enabled by setting the Input Capture Noise Canceler (ICNCn) bit in Timer/Counter Control Register n B (TCCRnB). When enabled the noise canceler introduces additional four system clock cycles of delay from a change applied to the input, to the update of the ICRn Register. The noise canceler uses the system clock and is therefore not affected by the prescaler. 17.6.3 Using the Input Capture unit The main challenge when using the Input Capture unit is to assign enough processor capacity for handling the incoming events. The time between two events is critical. If the processor has not read the captured value in the ICRn Register before the next event occurs, the ICRn will be overwritten with a new value. In this case the result of the capture will be incorrect. When using the Input Capture interrupt, the ICRn Register should be read as early in the interrupt handler routine as possible. The maximum interrupt response time is dependent on the maximum number of clock cycles it takes to handle any of the other interrupt requests. Measurement of an external signal duty cycle requires that the trigger edge is changed after each capture. Changing the edge sensing must be done as early as possible after the ICRn Register has been read. After a change of the edge, the Input Capture Flag (ICFn) must be cleared by software (writing a logical one to the I/O bit location). For measuring frequency only, the trigger edge change is not required. 88 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB Note: 1. See ”OSI – Oscillator sampling interface” on page 29 for details. 2. The noise canceler cannot be used with this source. Note: 1. The noise canceller will filter out the input capture and it is therefore not recommended to use noise canceler with these sources. 17.7 Output compare unit The comparator continuously compares the Timer/Counter (TCNTn) with the Output Compare Registers (OCRnA and OCRnB), and whenever the Timer/Counter equals to the Output Compare Registers, the comparator signals a match. A match will set the Output Compare Flag at the next timer clock cycle. In 8-bit mode the match can set either the Output Compare Flag OCFnA or OCFnB, but in 16-bit mode the match can set only the Output Compare Flag OCFnA as there is only one Output Compare Unit. If the corresponding interrupt is enabled, the Output Compare Flag generates an Output Compare interrupt. The Output Compare Flag is automatically cleared when the interrupt is executed. Alternatively, the flag can be cleared by software by writing a logical one to its I/O bit location. Figure 17-5 shows a block diagram of the Output Compare unit. Figure 17-5. Output Compare Unit, block diagram. 17.7.1 Compare Match Blocking by TCNT0 write All CPU write operations to the TCNTnH/L Register will block any Compare Match that occur in the next timer clock cycle, even when the timer is stopped. This feature allows OCRnA/B to be initialized to the same value as TCNTn without triggering an interrupt when the Timer/Counter clock is enabled. Table 17-3.

If the value written to TCNTnH/L equals the OCRnA/B value, the Compare Match will be missed. 17.8 Timer/counter timing diagrams The Timer/Counter is a synchronous design and the timer clock (clkTn) is therefore shown as a clock enable signal in the following figures. The figures include information on when Interrupt Flags are set. Figure 17-6 contains timing data for basic Timer/Counter operation. The figure shows the count sequence close to the MAX value. Figure 17-6. Timer/counter timing diagram, no prescaling. Figure 17-7 shows the same timing data, but with the prescaler enabled. Figure 17-7.

Figure 17-9. Timer/counter timing diagram, CTC mode, with prescaler (fclk_I/O/8). 17.9 Accessing registers in 16-bit mode In 16-bit mode (the TCWn bit is set to one) the TCNTnH/L and OCRnA/B or TCNTnL/H and OCRnB/A are 16-bit registers that can be accessed by the AVR CPU via the 8-bit data bus. The 16-bit register must be byte accessed using two read or write operations. The 16-bit Timer/Counter has a single 8-bit register for temporary storing of the high byte of the 16-bit access. The same temporary register is shared between all 16-bit registers. Accessing the low byte triggers the 16-bit read or write operation. When the low byte of a 16-bit register is written by the CPU, the high byte stored in the temporary register, and the low byte written are both copied into the 16-bit register in the same clock cycle. When the low byte of a 16-bit register is read by the CPU, the high byte of the 16-bit register is copied into the temporary register in the same clock cycle as the low byte is read. There is one exception in the temporary register usage. In the Output Compare mode the 16-bit Output Compare Register OCRnA/B is read without the temporary register, because the Output Compare Register contains a fixed value that is only changed by CPU access. However, in 16- bit Input Capture mode the ICRn register formed by the OCRnA and OCRnB registers must be accessed with the temporary register. To do a 16-bit write, the high byte must be written before the low byte. For a 16-bit read, the low byte must be read before the high byte. OCFnx OCRnx TCNTn (CTC) TOP TOP - 1 TOP BOTTOM BOTTOM + 1 clkPCK clkTn (clkPCK /8) 91 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB The following code examples show how to access the 16-bit timer registers assuming that no interrupts updates the temporary register. The same principle can be used directly for accessing the OCRnA/B registers. Note: 1. See ”About code examples” on page 8. The assembly code example returns the TCNTnH/L value in the r17:r16 register pair. It is important to notice that accessing 16-bit registers are atomic operations. If an interrupt occurs between the two instructions accessing the 16-bit register, and the interrupt code updates the temporary register by accessing the same or any other of the 16-bit timer registers, then the result of the access outside the interrupt will be corrupted. Therefore, when both the main code and the interrupt code update the temporary register, the main code must disable the interrupts during the 16-bit access. Assembly code example ... ; Set TCNTn to 0x01FF ldi r17,0x01 ldi r16,0xFF out TCNTnH,r17 out TCNTnL,r16 ; Read TCNTn into r17:r16 in r16,TCNTnL in r17,TCNTnH ... C code example unsigned int i; ... /* Set TCNTn to 0x01FF */ TCNTn = 0x1FF; /* Read TCNTn into i */ i = TCNTn; ... 92 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB The following code examples show how to do an atomic read of the TCNTn register contents. Reading any of the OCRn register can be done by using the same principle. Note: 1. See ”About code examples” on page 8. The assembly code example returns the TCNTnH/L value in the r17:r16 register pair. Assembly code example TIMn_ReadTCNTn: ; Save global interrupt flag in r18,SREG ; Disable interrupts cli ; Read TCNTn into r17:r16 in r16,TCNTnL in r17,TCNTnH ; Restore global interrupt flag out SREG,r18 ret C code example unsigned int TIMn_ReadTCNTn( void ) { unsigned char sreg; unsigned int i; /* Save global interrupt flag */ sreg = SREG; /* Disable interrupts */ _CLI(); /* Read TCNTn into i */ i = TCNTn; /* Restore global interrupt flag */ SREG = sreg; return i; } 93 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB The following code examples show how to do an atomic write of the TCNTnH/L register contents. Writing any of the OCRnA/B registers can be done by using the same principle. Note: 1. See ”About code examples” on page 8. The assembly code example requires that the r17:r16 register pair contains the value to be written to TCNTnH/L. 17.9.1 Reusing the temporary high byte register If writing to more than one 16-bit register where the high byte is the same for all registers written, then the high byte only needs to be written once. However, note that the same rule of atomic operation described previously also applies in this case. Assembly code example TIMn_WriteTCNTn: ; Save global interrupt flag in r18,SREG ; Disable interrupts cli ; Set TCNTn to r17:r16 out TCNTnH,r17 out TCNTnL,r16 ; Restore global interrupt flag out SREG,r18 ret C code example void TIMn_WriteTCNTn( unsigned int i ) { unsigned char sreg; unsigned int i; /* Save global interrupt flag */ sreg = SREG; /* Disable interrupts */ _CLI(); /* Set TCNTn to i */ TCNTn = i; /* Restore global interrupt flag */ SREG = sreg; } 94 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB 17.10 Register description 17.10.1 TCCRnA – Timer/Counter n Control Register A • Bit 7 – TCWn: Timer/Counter Width When this bit is written to one 16-bit mode is selected. Timer/Counter n width is set to 16-bits and the Output Compare Registers OCRnA and OCRnB are combined to form one 16-bit Output Compare Register. Because the 16-bit registers TCNTnH/L and OCRnB/A are accessed by the AVR CPU via the 8-bit data bus, special procedures must be followed. These procedures are described in section ”Accessing registers in 16-bit mode” on page 90. • Bit 6 – ICENn: Input Capture Mode Enable The Input Capture Mode is enabled when this bit is written to one. • Bit 5 – ICNCn: Input Capture Noise Canceler Setting this bit activates the Input Capture Noise Canceler. When the noise canceler is activated, the input from the Input Capture Source is filtered. The filter function requires four successive equal valued samples of the Input Capture Source for changing its output. The Input Capture is therefore delayed by four System Clock cycles when the noise canceler is enabled. • Bit 4 – ICESn: Input Capture Edge Select This bit selects which edge on the Input Capture Source that is used to trigger a capture event. When the ICESn bit is written to zero, a falling (negative) edge is used as trigger, and when the ICESn bit is written to one, a rising (positive) edge will trigger the capture. When a capture is triggered according to the ICESn setting, the counter value is copied into the Input Capture Register. The event will also set the Input Capture Flag (ICFn), and this can be used to cause an Input Capture Interrupt, if this interrupt is enabled. • Bit 3 – ICSn: Input Capture Select When written logic one, this bit enables the input capture function in Timer/Counter n to be triggered by the alternative Input Capture Source. To make the comparator trigger the Timer/Counter n Input Capture interrupt, the TICIEn bit in the Timer Interrupt Mask Register (TIMSK) must be set. See Table 17-3 on page 88 and Table 17-4 on page 88. • Bits 2:1 – Reserved These bits are reserved in the Atmel ATmega16HVB/32HVB and will always read as zero. • Bit 0 – WGMn0: Waveform Generation Mode This bit controls the counting sequence of the counter, the source for maximum (TOP) counter value, see Figure 17-6 on page 89. Modes of operation supported by the Timer/Counter unit are: Normal mode (counter) and Clear Timer on Compare Match (CTC) mode (see ”Timer/counter timing diagrams” on page 89).

Writing to the TCNTnL Register blocks (disables) the Compare Match on the following timer clock. Modifying the counter (TCNTnL) while the counter is running, introduces a risk of missing a Compare Match between TCNTnL and the OCRnx Registers. In 16-bit mode the TCNTnL register contains the lower part of the 16-bit Timer/Counter n Register. 17.10.3 TCNTnH – Timer/Counter n Register High Byte When 16-bit mode is selected (the TCWn bit is set to one) the Timer/Counter Register TCNTnH combined to the Timer/Counter Register TCNTnL gives direct access, both for read and write operations, to the Timer/Counter unit 16-bit counter. To ensure that both the high and low bytes are read and written simultaneously when the CPU accesses these registers, the access is performed using an 8-bit temporary high byte register (TEMP). This temporary register is shared by all the other 16-bit registers. See ”Accessing registers in 16-bit mode” on page 90. 17.10.4 OCRnA – Timer/Counter n Output Compare Register A The Output Compare Register A contains an 8-bit value that is continuously compared with the counter value (TCNTnL). A match can be used to generate an Output Compare interrupt. In 16-bit mode the OCRnA register contains the low byte of the 16-bit Output Compare Register. To ensure that both the high and the low bytes are written simultaneously when the CPU writes to these registers, the access is performed using an 8-bit temporary high byte register (TEMP). This temporary register is shared by all the other 16-bit registers. See ”Accessing registers in 16- bit mode” on page 90. 17.10.5 OCRnB – Timer/Counter n Output Compare Register B The Output Compare Register B contains an 8-bit value that is continuously compared with the counter value (TCNTnL in 8-bit mode and TCNTnH in 16-bit mode). A match can be used to generate an Output Compare interrupt.

To ensure that both the high and the low bytes are written simultaneously when the CPU writes to these registers, the access is performed using an 8-bit temporary high byte register (TEMP). This temporary register is shared by all the other 16-bit registers. See ”Accessing registers in 16-bit mode” on page 90. 17.10.6 TIMSKn – Timer/Counter n Interrupt Mask Register • Bit 3 – ICIEn: Timer/Counter n Input Capture Interrupt Enable When this bit is written to one, and the I-flag in the Status Register is set (interrupts globally enabled), the Timer/Counter n Input Capture interrupt is enabled. The corresponding Interrupt Vector (see ”Interrupts” on page 52) is executed when the ICFn flag, located in TIFRn, is set. • Bit 2 – OCIEnB: Timer/Counter n Output Compare Match B Interrupt Enable When the OCIEnB bit is written to one, and the I-bit in the Status Register is set, the Timer/Counter Compare Match B interrupt is enabled. The corresponding interrupt is executed if a Compare Match in Timer/Counter occurs, that is, when the OCFnB bit is set in the Timer/Counter Interrupt Flag Register – TIFRn. • Bit 1 – OCIEnA: Timer/Counter n Output Compare Match A Interrupt Enable When the OCIEnA bit is written to one, and the I-bit in the Status Register is set, the Timer/Counter n Compare Match A interrupt is enabled. The corresponding interrupt is executed if a Compare Match in Timer/Counter n occurs, that is, when the OCFnA bit is set in the Timer/Counter n Interrupt Flag Register – TIFRn. • Bit 0 – TOIEn: Timer/Counter n Overflow Interrupt Enable When the TOIEn bit is written to one, and the I-bit in the Status Register is set, the Timer/Counter n Overflow interrupt is enabled. The corresponding interrupt is executed if an overflow in Timer/Counter n occurs, that is, when the TOVn bit is set in the Timer/Counter n Interrupt Flag Register – TIFRn. 17.10.7 TIFRn – Timer/Counter n Interrupt Flag Register • Bits 3 – ICFn: Timer/Counter n Input Capture Flag This flag is set when a capture event occurs, according to the setting of ICENn, ICESn and ICSn bits in the TCCRnA Register. ICFn is automatically cleared when the Input Capture Interrupt Vector is executed. Alternatively, ICFn can be cleared by writing a logic one to its bit location.

OCFnB is cleared by hardware when executing the corresponding interrupt handling vector. Alternatively, OCFnB is cleared by writing a logic one to the flag. When the I-bit in SREG, OCIEnB (Timer/Counter Compare B Match Interrupt Enable), and OCFnB are set, the Timer/Counter Compare Match Interrupt is executed. The OCFnB is not set in 16-bit Output Compare mode when the Output Compare Register OCRnB is used as the high byte of the 16-bit Output Compare Register or in 16-bit Input Capture mode when the Output Compare Register OCRnB is used as the high byte of the Input Capture Register. • Bit 1 – OCFnA: Output Compare Flag n A The OCFnA bit is set when a Compare Match occurs between the Timer/Counter n and the data in OCRnA – Output Compare Register n. OCFnA is cleared by hardware when executing the corresponding interrupt handling vector. Alternatively, OCFnA is cleared by writing a logic one to the flag. When the I-bit in SREG, OCIEnA (Timer/Counter n Compare Match Interrupt Enable), and OCFnA are set, the Timer/Counter n Compare Match Interrupt is executed. The OCFnA is also set in 16-bit mode when a Compare Match occurs between the Timer/Counter n and 16-bit data in OCRnB/A. The OCFnA is not set in Input Capture mode when the Output Compare Register OCRnA is used as an Input Capture Register. • Bit 0 – TOVn: Timer/Counter n Overflow Flag The bit TOVn is set when an overflow occurs in Timer/Counter n. TOVn is cleared by hardware when executing the corresponding interrupt handling vector. Alternatively, TOVn is cleared by writing a logic one to the flag. When the SREG I-bit, TOIEn (Timer/Counter n Overflow Interrupt Enable), and TOVn are set, the Timer/Counter n Overflow interrupt is executed. 98 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB 18. SPI – Serial Peripheral Interface 18.1 Features • Full-duplex, three-wire synchronous data transfer • Master or slave operation • LSB first or MSB first data transfer • Seven programmable bit rates • End of transmission interrupt flag • Write collision protection flag • Wake-up from idle mode • Double speed (CK/2) master SPI mode 18.2 Overview The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) allows high-speed synchronous data transfer between the Atmel ATmega16HVB/32HVB and peripheral devices or between several AVR devices. When the SPI is not used, power consumption can be minimized by writing the PRSPI bit in PRR0 to one. See ”PRR0 – Power Reduction Register 0” on page 40 for details on how to use the PRSPI bit. Figure 18-1. SPI block diagram (1). Note: 1. Refer to ”Alternate port functions” on page 72 for SPI pin placement. SPI2X SPI2X DIVIDER /2/4/8/16/32/64/128 99 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB The interconnection between Master and Slave CPUs with SPI is shown in Figure 18-2. The system consists of two shift Registers, and a Master clock generator. The SPI Master initiates the communication cycle when pulling low the Slave Select SS pin of the desired Slave. Master and Slave prepare the data to be sent in their respective shift Registers, and the Master generates the required clock pulses on the SCK line to interchange data. Data is always shifted from Master to Slave on the Master Out – Slave In, MOSI, line, and from Slave to Master on the Master In – Slave Out, MISO, line. After each data packet, the Master will synchronize the Slave by pulling high the Slave Select, SS, line. When configured as a Master, the SPI interface has no automatic control of the SS line. This must be handled by user software before communication can start. When this is done, writing a byte to the SPI Data Register starts the SPI clock generator, and the hardware shifts the eight bits into the Slave. After shifting one byte, the SPI clock generator stops, setting the end of Transmission Flag (SPIF). If the SPI Interrupt Enable bit (SPIE) in the SPCR Register is set, an interrupt is requested. The Master may continue to shift the next byte by writing it into SPDR, or signal the end of packet by pulling high the Slave Select, SS line. The last incoming byte will be kept in the Buffer Register for later use. When configured as a Slave, the SPI interface will remain sleeping with MISO tri-stated as long as the SS pin is driven high. In this state, software may update the contents of the SPI Data Register, SPDR, but the data will not be shifted out by incoming clock pulses on the SCK pin until the SS pin is driven low. As one byte has been completely shifted, the end of Transmission Flag, SPIF is set. If the SPI Interrupt Enable bit, SPIE, in the SPCR Register is set, an interrupt is requested. The Slave may continue to place new data to be sent into SPDR before reading the incoming data. The last incoming byte will be kept in the Buffer Register for later use. Figure 18-2. SPI Master-slave interconnection. The system is single buffered in the transmit direction and double buffered in the receive direction. This means that bytes to be transmitted cannot be written to the SPI Data Register before the entire shift cycle is completed. When receiving data, however, a received character must be read from the SPI Data Register before the next character has been completely shifted in. Otherwise, the first byte is lost. In SPI Slave mode, the control logic will sample the incoming signal of the SCK pin. To ensure correct sampling of the clock signal, the frequency of the SPI clock should never exceed fosc/4. When the SPI is enabled, the data direction of the MOSI, MISO, SCK, and SS pins is overridden according to Table 18-1 on page 100. For more details on automatic port overrides, refer to ”Alternate port functions” on page 72. SHIFT ENABLE 100 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB Note: 1. See ”Alternate functions of Port B” on page 75 for a detailed description of how to define the direction of the user defined SPI pins. The following code examples show how to initialize the SPI as a Master and how to perform a simple transmission. DDR_SPI in the examples must be replaced by the actual Data Direction Register controlling the SPI pins. DD_MOSI, DD_MISO and DD_SCK must be replaced by the actual data direction bits for these pins, for example, if MOSI is placed on pin PB5, replace DD_MOSI with DDB5 and DDR_SPI with DDRB. Table 18-1.

When reading data from the ATmega16HVB/32HVB, data is clocked on the falling edge of SCK. See ”Serial programming characteristics” on page 234 for timing details. To program and verify the ATmega16HVB/32HVB in the Serial Programming mode, the following sequence is recommended (see four byte instruction formats in Table 30-12 on page 210): 1. Power-up sequence: Make sure the chip is started as explained in Section 11.2.1 ”Power-on reset and charger connect” on page 43 while RESET and SCK are set to “0”. In some systems, the programmer can not guarantee that SCK is held low during power-up. In this case, RESET must be given a positive pulse of at least two CPU clock cycles duration after SCK has been set to “0”. 2. Wait for at least 20ms and enable serial programming by sending the Programming Enable serial instruction to pin MOSI. Table 30-10. Pin mapping serial programming. Symbol Pins I/O Description SCK PB5 I Serial Clock MOSI PB6 I Serial Data in MISO PB7 O Serial Data out GND SCK MISO MOSI RESET +4.0V - 25.0V VFET GND SCK MISO MOSI RESET +4.0V - 25.0V VFET 209 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB 3. The serial programming instructions will not work if the communication is out of synchronization. When in sync. the second byte (0x53), will echo back when issuing the third byte of the Programming Enable instruction. Whether the echo is correct or not, all four bytes of the instruction must be transmitted. If the 0x53 did not echo back, give RESET a positive pulse and issue a new Programming Enable command. 4. The Flash is programmed one page at a time. The memory page is loaded one byte at a time by supplying the 5 LSB of the address and data together with the Load Program memory Page instruction. To ensure correct loading of the page, the data low byte must be loaded before data high byte is applied for a given address. The Program memory Page is stored by loading the Write Program memory Page instruction with the 7/8 MSB of the address (Atmel ATmega16HVB/ATmega32HVB). If polling (RDY/BSY) is not used, the user must wait at least tWD_FLASH before issuing the next page (see Table 30-11). Accessing the serial programming interface before the Flash write operation completes can result in incorrect programming. 5. A: The EEPROM array is programmed one byte at a time by supplying the address and data together with the appropriate Write instruction. An EEPROM memory location is first automatically erased before new data is written. If polling (RDY/BSY) is not used, the user must wait at least tWD_EEPROM before issuing the next byte (see Table 30-11). In a chip erased device, no 0xFFs in the data file(s) need to be programmed. B: The EEPROM array is programmed one page at a time. The Memory page is loaded one byte at a time by supplying the 2 LSB of the address and data together with the Load EEPROM Memory Page instruction. The EEPROM Memory Page is stored by loading the Write EEPROM Memory Page Instruction with the 7/8 MSB of the address (ATmega16HVB/ATmega32HVB). When using EEPROM page access only byte locations loaded with the Load EEPROM Memory Page instruction is altered. The remaining locations remain unchanged. If polling (RDY/BSY) is not used, the used must wait at least tWD_EEPROM before issuing the next page (see Table 30-8 on page 207). In a chip erased device, no 0xFF in the data file(s) need to be programmed. 6. Any memory location can be verified by using the Read instruction which returns the content at the selected address at serial output MISO. 7. At the end of the programming session, RESET can be set high to commence normal operation. 8. Power-off sequence (if needed): Set RESET to “1”. Turn VCC power off. Table 30-11.

Notes: 1. Not all instructions are applicable for all parts. 2. adr = address. 3. Bits are programmed ‘0’, unprogrammed ‘1’. 4. To ensure future compatibility, unused Fuses and Lock bits should be unprogrammed (‘1’). 5. Refer to the corresponding section for Fuse and Lock bits, Calibration and Signature bytes and Page size. 6. Instructions accessing program memory use word address. This address may be random within the page range. 7. See http://www.atmel.com/avr for Application Notes regarding programming and programmers. Table 30-12. Serial programming instruction set.

Wait until this bit returns ‘0’ before the next instruction is carried out. Within the same page, the low data byte must be loaded prior to the high data byte. After data is loaded to the page buffer, program the EEPROM page, see Figure 30-2. Figure 30-2. Serial programming instruction example. 30.7 Parallel programming This section describes parameters, pin mapping, and commands used to parallel program and verify Flash Program memory, EEPROM Data memory, Memory Lock bits, and Fuse bits in the Atmel ATmega16HVB/32HVB. Pulses are assumed to be at least 250 ns unless otherwise noted. 30.7.1 Considerations for efficient programming The loaded command and address are retained in the device during programming. For efficient programming, the following should be considered. • The command needs only be loaded once when writing or reading multiple memory locations • Skip writing the data value 0xFF, that is the contents of the entire EEPROM (unless the EESAVE Fuse is programmed) and Flash after a Chip Erase Address high byte needs only be loaded before programming or reading a new 256 word window in Flash or 256 byte EEPROM. This consideration also applies to Signature bytes reading.

Pins not described in the following table are referenced by pin names. The XA1/XA0 pins determine the action executed when the XTAL1 pin is given a positive pulse. The bit coding is shown in Table 30-15 on page 213. When pulsing WR or OE, the command loaded determines the action executed. The different Commands are shown in Table 30-16 on page 213. Table 32-18 on page 236 shows the Parallel programming characteristics. Figure 30-3. Parallel programming. Table 30-13. Pin name mapping.

Make sure the chip is started as explained in ”Power-on reset and charger connect” on page 43. 2. Set RESET to “0” and toggle XTAL1 at least six times. 3. Set the Prog_enable pins listed in Table 30-14 to “0000” and wait at least 100ns. 4. Apply 11.5V - 12.5V to RESET. Any activity on Prog_enable pins within 100ns after +12V has been applied to RESET, will cause the device to fail entering programming mode. 5. Wait at least 50µs before sending a new command. 30.7.4 Chip erase The Chip Erase will erase the Flash and EEPROM (1) memories plus Lock bits. The Lock bits are not reset until the program memory has been completely erased. The Fuse bits are not changed. A Chip Erase must be performed before the Flash and/or EEPROM are reprogrammed. Note: 1. The EEPRPOM memory is preserved during Chip Erase if the EESAVE Fuse is programmed. Table 30-14. Pin values used to enter programming mode.

Set XA1, XA0 to “10”. This enables command loading. 2. Set BS1 to “0”. 3. Set DATA to “1000 0000”. This is the command for Chip Erase. 4. Give XTAL1 a positive pulse. This loads the command. 5. Give WR a negative pulse. This starts the Chip Erase. RDY/BSY goes low. 6. Wait until RDY/BSY goes high before loading a new command. 30.7.5 Programming the flash The Flash is organized in pages, see Table 30-7 on page 207. When programming the Flash, the program data is latched into a page buffer. This allows one page of program data to be programmed simultaneously. The following procedure describes how to program the entire Flash memory: A. Load Command “Write Flash” 1. Set XA1, XA0 to “10”. This enables command loading. 2. Set BS1 to “0”. 3. Set DATA to “0001 0000”. This is the command for Write Flash. 4. Give XTAL1 a positive pulse. This loads the command. B. Load Address Low byte 1. Set XA1, XA0 to “00”. This enables address loading. 2. Set BS1 to “0”. This selects low address. 3. Set DATA = Address low byte (0x00 - 0xFF). 4. Give XTAL1 a positive pulse. This loads the address low byte. C. Load Data Low Byte 1. Set XA1, XA0 to “01”. This enables data loading. 2. Set DATA = Data low byte (0x00 - 0xFF). 3. Give XTAL1 a positive pulse. This loads the data byte. D. Load Data High Byte 1. Set BS1 to “1”. This selects high data byte. 2. Set XA1, XA0 to “01”. This enables data loading. 3. Set DATA = Data high byte (0x00 - 0xFF). 4. Give XTAL1 a positive pulse. This loads the data byte. E. Latch Data 1. Set BS1 to “1”. This selects high data byte. 2. Give PAGEL a positive pulse. This latches the data bytes (see Figure 30-5 on page 216 for signal waveforms). F. Repeat B through E until the entire buffer is filled or until all data within the page is loaded While the lower bits in the address are mapped to words within the page, the higher bits address the pages within the FLASH. This is illustrated in Figure 30-4 on page 215. Note that if less than eight bits are required to address words in the page (pagesize <256), the most significant bit(s) in the address low byte are used to address the page when performing a Page Write. 215 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB G. Load Address High byte 1. Set XA1, XA0 to “00”. This enables address loading. 2. Set BS1 to “1”. This selects high address. 3. Set DATA = Address high byte (0x00 - 0xFF). 4. Give XTAL1 a positive pulse. This loads the address high byte. H. Program Page 1. Give WR a negative pulse. This starts programming of the entire page of data. RDY/BSY goes low. 2. Wait until RDY/BSY goes high (see Figure 30-5 on page 216 for signal waveforms). I. Repeat B through H until the entire Flash is programmed or until all data has been programmed. J. End Page Programming 1. 1. Set XA1, XA0 to “10”. This enables command loading. 2. Set DATA to “0000 0000”. This is the command for No Operation. 3. Give XTAL1 a positive pulse. This loads the command, and the internal write signals are reset. Figure 30-4. Addressing the flash which is organized in pages (1). Note: 1. PCPAGE and PCWORD are listed in Table 30-7 on page 207.

The letters refer to the programming description above. 30.7.6 Programming the EEPROM The EEPROM is organized in pages, see Table 30-8 on page 207. When programming the EEPROM, the program data is latched into a page buffer. This allows one page of data to be programmed simultaneously. The programming algorithm for the EEPROM data memory is as follows (refer to ”Programming the flash” on page 214 for details on Command, Address and Data loading): 1. A: Load Command “0001 0001”. 2. G: Load Address High Byte (0x00 - 0xFF). 3. B: Load Address Low Byte (0x00 - 0xFF). 4. C: Load Data (0x00 - 0xFF). 5. E: Latch data (give PAGEL a positive pulse). K: Repeat 3 through 5 until the entire buffer is filled L: Program EEPROM page 1. Set BS to “0”. 2. Give WR a negative pulse. This starts programming of the EEPROM page. RDY/BSY goes low. 3. Wait until to RDY/BSY goes high before programming the next page (see Figure 30-6 on page 217 for signal waveforms). RDY/BSY WR OE RESET +12V PAGEL BS2 0x10 ADDR. LOW ADDR.

Measures NFET driver’s ability to switch OC/OD from 0V to specified output level with constant resistive load on the pin. Loads above this limit may cause OC/OD not reaching the specified level. Drive capability is highly temperature dependent. Refer to Section 33.2 ”NFET driver characteristics” on page 245 for details. Note: The NFET drivers require a minimum total cell voltage of 6V or higher or a charger connected to turn-on the FETs. Note that this limit only applies if the FET is disabled in advance. If the FET is already enabled, the FET will be fully operational in the entire voltage range of the device (4V to 18V). Table 32-2. TA= 25°C unless otherwise noted. Symbol Parameter Condition Min.

The voltage at the pack + terminal will be slightly higher than VPOT when the chip is enabled. This is because of an internal Pull-down current on the BATT pin in the range 50µA - 150µA and the RBATT resistor connected between the Pack + terminal and the BATT pin. RBATT = 1k gives a voltage drop 0.05V - 0.15V. 2. The power-on reset will not work unless the voltage has been below VPOT (falling) after a power-off condition. 32.5 Voltage regulator characteristics 32.6 Voltage reference and temperature sensor characteristics Notes: 1. Calibration is done in Atmel factory test. Software should calibrate the VREF by writing the BGCRR and BGCCR registers with the calibration values stored in the signature row. 2. This value is not tested in production. 3. The measured VPTAT voltage must be scaled with the calibration value stored in the VPTAT Calibration Register to get the absolute temperature. The design target accuracy for this parameter assumes an exact calibration temperature. Actual accuracy of this parameter after calibration in Atmel factory test remains to be determined. Table 32-3.

Although each I/O port can sink more than the test conditions (5mA at VCC = 3.3V) under steady state conditions (non-transient), the following must be observed: - The sum of all IOL should not exceed 20mA If IOL exceeds the test condition, VOL may exceed the related specification. Pins are not guaranteed to sink current greater than the listed test condition. 4. Although each I/O port can source more than the test conditions (2mA at VCC = 3.3V) under steady state conditions (nontransient), the following must be observed: - The sum of all IOH should not exceed 2mA This restriction is put because the device should be within spec throughout the whole operation range. The integrated voltage regulator could have problems providing this output when supplying high currents at low VFET voltages. 5. The typical hysteresis on VIL/VIH is 300mV on all PA and PB pins except PA3. PA3 has a typical hysteresis of 50mV. 32.12.2 Port C characteristics Note: 1.

The Atmel ATmega16HVB/32HVB Two-wire Serial Interface meets or exceeds these requirements under the noted conditions. Timing symbols refer to Figure 32-1 on page 233. Notes: 1.

For compatibility with future devices, reserved bits should be written to zero if accessed. Reserved I/O memory addresses should never be written. 2. I/O registers within the address range $00 - $1F are directly bit-accessible using the SBI and CBI instructions. In these registers, the value of single bits can be checked by using the SBIS and SBIC instructions. 3. Some of the status flags are cleared by writing a logical one to them. Note that the CBI and SBI instructions will operate on all bits in the I/O register, writing a one back into any flag read as set, thus clearing the flag. The CBI and SBI instructions work with registers 0x00 to 0x1F only. 4. When using the I/O specific commands IN and OUT, the I/O addresses $00 - $3F must be used. When addressing I/O registers as data space using LD and ST instructions, $20 must be added to these addresses. The Atmel ATmega16HVB/32HVB is a complex microcontroller with more peripheral units than can be supported within the 64 location reserved in Opcode for the IN and OUT instructions. For the Extended I/O space from $60 - $FF in SRAM, only the ST/STS/STD and LD/LDS/LDD instructions can be used. 0x1B (0x3B) PCIFR – – – – – – PCIF1 PCIF0 60 0x1A (0x3A) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x19 (0x39) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x18 (0x38) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x17 (0x37) OSICSR – – – OSISEL0 – – OSIST OSIEN 33 0x16 (0x36) TIFR1 – – – – ICF1 OCF1B OCF1A TOV1 96 0x15 (0x35) TIFR0 – – – – ICF0 OCF0B OCF0A TOV0 96 0x14 (0x34) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x13 (0x33) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x12 (0x32) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x11 (0x31) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x10 (0x30) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x0F (0x2F) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x0E (0x2E) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x0D (0x2D) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x0C (0x2C) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x0B (0x2B) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x0A (0x2A) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x09 (0x29) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x08 (0x28) PORTC – – PORTC5 PORTC4 PORTC3 PORTC2 PORTC1 PORTC0 66 0x07 (0x27) Reserved – – – – – – – – 0x06 (0x26) PINC – – – PINC4 PINC3 PINC2 PINC1 PINC0 66 0x05 (0x25) PORTB PORTB7 PORTB6 PORTB5 PORTB4 PORTB3 PORTB2 PORTB1 PORTB0 78 0x04 (0x24) DDRB DDB7 DDB6 DDB5 DDB4 DDB3 DDB2 DDB1 DDB0 78 0x03 (0x23) PINB PINB7 PINB6 PINB5 PINB4 PINB3 PINB2 PINB1 PINB0 78 0x02 (0x22) PORTA – – – – PORTA3 PORTA2 PORTA1 PORTA0 78 0x01 (0x21) DDRA – – – – DDA3 DDA2 DDA1 DDA0 78 0x00 (0x20) PINA – – – – PINA3 PINA2 PINA1 PINA0 78 Address Name Bit 7 Bit 6 Bit 5 Bit 4 Bit 3 Bit 2 Bit 1 Bit 0 Page 259 8042E–AVR–09/2013 ATmega16HVB/32HVB 35.

E TWI bus can get stuck if TWI STOP condition bit is set in slave mode If the TWSTO bit in TWCR is set while the TWI starts to receive data in slave mode, it can result in pulling the SCL pin low and then the TWI bus will get stuck. To release the SCL pin and get out of this situation the TWI module needs to be disabled and then re-enabled. Problem fix/workaround While in slave mode the TWSTO bit should be written only to recover from an error condition and then cleared before a data transfer starts. 38.1.2 Rev.

Atmel QTouch Library QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller USER GUIDE Description Atmel® QTouch® Peripheral Touch Controller (PTC) offers built-in hardware for capacitive touch measurement on sensors that function as buttons, sliders, and wheels. The PTC supports both mutual and self-capacitance measurement without the need for any external component. It offers superb sensitivity and noise tolerance, as well as self-calibration, and minimizes the sensitivity tuning effort by the user. The PTC is intended for autonomously performing capacitive touch sensor measurements. The external capacitive touch sensor is typically formed on a PCB, and the sensor electrodes are connected to the analog charge integrator of the PTC using the device I/O pins. The PTC supports mutual capacitance sensors organized as capacitive touch matrices in different X-Y configurations, including Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) sensor grids. In mutual capacitance mode, the PTC requires one pin per X-line (drive line) and one pin per Y-line (sense line). In self-capacitance mode, the PTC requires only one pin with a Y-line driver for each self-capacitance sensor. Features • Implements low-power, high-sensitivity, environmentally robust capacitive touch buttons, sliders, and wheels • Supports mutual capacitance and self-capacitance sensing • Up to 32 buttons in self-capacitance mode • Up to 256 buttons in mutual capacitance mode • Supports lumped mode configuration • One pin per electrode - no external components • Load compensating charge sensing • Parasitic capacitance compensation for mutual capacitance mode • Adjustable gain for superior sensitivity • Zero drift over the temperature and VDD range • No need for temperature or VDD compensation • Hardware noise filtering and noise signal de-synchronization for high conducted immunity • Atmel provided QTouch Library firmware and QTouch Composer tool Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 Product Support For assistance related to QTouch capacitive touch sensing software libraries and related issues, contact your local Atmel sales representative or log on to myAtmel Design Support portal to submit a support request or access a comprehensive knowledge base.

Capacitive Touch Technology 3.1. Capacitive Touch Sensors Capacitive touch sensors replace conventional mechanical interfaces and operate with no mechanical wear and are closed to the environment. They provide greater flexibility in industrial design and result in differentiating end product design. For more information, refer Capacitive Touch Lumped Sensors and Capacitive Touch Low Power Sensor. Figure 3-1. Sensor Types 3.2. Capacitance Measurement Methods Self-capacitance measurement method involves charging a sense electrode of unknown capacitance to a known potential. The resulting charge is transferred into a measurement circuit. By measuring the charge with one or more charge-and transfer cycles, the capacitance of the sense plate can be determined. Figure 3-2. Capacitance Measurement Principle Mutual capacitance measurement method uses a pair of sensing electrodes. One electrode acts as an emitter into which a charge consisting of logic pulses is driven in burst mode. The other electrode acts as a receiver that couples to the emitter using the overlying panel dielectric. When a finger touches the panel, the field coupling is reduced, and touch is detected. 3.3. Self-capacitance Measurement Method • Uses a single sense electrode (Y-line) – Self-capacitance button can be formed using one channel – Self-capacitance slider and wheel is formed using 3 channels • Robust and easy to use, ideal for low sensors count Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 8 Figure 3-3. Self-capacitance Method 3.4. Mutual Capacitance Measurement Method • Uses a pair of sense electrodes (X-Y lines) – Mutual capacitance buttons use one X-Y channel – Mutual capacitance sliders and wheels can be configured to use 3 to 8 X-Y channels, depending on the sensor size • Suitable for high sensor count • Better moisture tolerance Figure 3-4. Mutual Capacitance Method 3.5. Capacitive Touch Lumped Sensors Lumped sensor configuration is a combination of multiple sense lines (Self-capacitance measurement) or multiple drive and sense lines (Mutual capacitance measurement) to act as one single sensor. Lumped mode acts as a tool for application developers to improve overall system performance. Improved Power Efficiency When multiple sensors are lumped together and treated as one single sensor the time taken to perform scans is reduced. For battery powered applications using multiple buttons, a group of touch sensors can be lumped to form a single lumped sensor and this sensor alone can be scanned, thereby resulting in reduced power consumption. Upon user presence detection on the lumped sensor all configured sensors in the system can then be scanned individually. Improved Response Time Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 9 In high key-count applications, there can be a significant latency between touching a sensor and the detection of a touch contact. This is due to the time taken to sequentially measure the capacitance of each key on each measurement cycle.With a Lumped mode implementation this latency can be reduced by arranging the sensors into groups. When one of those lumped groups shows touch detection, only the keys within that group are individually measured to determine which is touched. E.g. A keyboard consisting 64 keys may be divided into 8 lumped groups of 8. Thus, each measurement cycle is reduced to measure only the 8 lumped sensors. When a touch contact is applied, first the lump sensor shows touch delta, then the 8 component keys are scanned and the location is resolved. Only 16 measurements are required to resolve the touch status of all keys, compared to 64 measurements in the traditional sequential scan of all keys. It offers an additional edge during low power acquisition as a group of keys [in lumped configuration] can be scanned thus reducing the power consumed drastically. Each sensor has its own pre-scaled clock and series resistor for improved noise immunity. Figure 3-5. Self-capacitance Sensors connected to PTC Figure 3-6. Lumped Self-capacitance Sensors connected to PTC In the preceeding figures, individual buttons are shown along with the lumped equivalent for selfcapacitance arrangement. Lumped Mode Pin and Sensor Configuration for Self-capacitance Method: #define DEF_SELFCAP_LINES Y(5), Y(4), Y(11), Y(10), Y(13), Y(7), Y(12), Y(6), LUMP_Y(5,4) touch_ret = touch_selfcap_sensor_config(SENSOR_TYPE_LUMP, CHANNEL_8, CHANNEL_8, NO_AKS_GROUP, 40u, HYST_6_25, RES_8_BIT, &sensor_id); Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 10 Figure 3-7. Lumped Sense Lines Mutual Capacitance Sensors connected to PTC In the preceeding figure, mutual capacitance lumped sensor configuration is presented.

Lumped mode treats the larger sensors as one single sensor therefore the maximum lumped sensor load should also observe this specification, else this will result in calibration error. In mutual capacitance measurement mode the capacitive load of each sensor is normally much lower than that of the self-capacitance method. It is therefore possible as a general rule to use more mutual sensors together as a single lumped sensor. The user can ensure that the lumped sensor does not result in a calibration error (value of 0x80) using p_xxxxcap_measure_data->p_sensors[].state variable. 3.6. Capacitive Touch Low Power Sensor The QTouch Library may be configured to operate PTC touch sensing autonomously using the Event System. In this mode, a single sensor is designated as the ‘Low Power’ key and may be periodically measured for touch detection without any CPU action. The CPU may be held in deep sleep mode throughout the operation, minimizing power consumption. The low power key may be a discrete electrode with one Y (Sense) line for Self-capacitance or One X (Drive) plus one Y (Sense) for mutual capacitance, or it may be a combination of multiple Drive and/or Sense lines as a Lumped mode sensor. Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 11 Figure 3-8. Low Power Flow Active Measurement Mode In the active measurement mode all configured sensors are measured at DEF_TOUCH_MEASUREMENT_PERIOD_MS millisecond scan interval. The user application arrangement could be designed such that when no touch activity is detected on any of the configured sensors for NO_ACTIVITY_TRIGGER_TIME milliseconds, then the application switches to low power measurement mode. Low Power Measurement Mode In the low power measurement mode, a designated sensor or a lumped sensor can be scanned as a single sensor. In this mode, the system is in standby sleep mode, the CPU and other peripherals are in sleep, excepting for the event system, the RTC and the PTC module / WDT and PTC module in SAM / Mega devices. A user touch on the designated low power sensor will cause the CPU to wake up and perform active measurement in order to resolve the touch. To keep reference tracking of the designated low power sensor, the RTC/WDT is configured to periodically wake up the CPU every DEF_LOWPOWER_SENSOR_DRIFT_PERIODICITY_MS millisecond to perform one active measurement. Switching between Active Mode and Low Power Mode Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 12 When switching from active to low power mode, all sensors except the lumped sensor are disabled. So, no reference tracking is performed on these sensors during the low power mode. When a touch is detected on the lumped sensor, all disabled sensors shall now be re-enabled and measurement is initiated on the sensors. If the device is in sleep for a very long time, then it is recommended to force calibration on the re-enabled sensors to ensure proper reference values on these sensors. 3.7. PTC and its Benefits • Mixed Hardware + Firmware solution, allows user to define sensor configuration – Peripheral Touch Controller + QTouch library • PTC runs data acquisition autonomously, resulting in low CPU utilization and power consumption – User controlled power-performance trade-off – CPU can sleep during acquisition to save power – Alternatively, CPU can perform other time critical operations during touch acquisition • Robust noise performance Figure 3-9. User Application with PTC Device 3.8. PTC Block Diagram for Self-capacitance and Mutual Capacitance Method The PTC block diagram for self-capacitance measurement is shown in the following figure. Only Y-lines can be connected to self-capacitance sensors and are selected using the Input control. X-lines remain unused and can be used for any other GPIO functionality. The acquisition module along with the compensation circuit helps in measuring the change in capacitance due to user touch. Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 13 Figure 3-10. PTC Self-capacitance Method - Block Diagram The PTC block diagram for mutual capacitance measurement is as shown in the following figure. Both Xlines and Y-lines should be connected to mutual capacitance sensors and are selected using the Input control. Figure 3-11. PTC Mutual Capacitance Method - Block Diagram 3.8.1. Compensation Circuit The PTC has an internal compensation circuit which is used to compensate the sensor capacitance. Both self-capacitance and mutual capacitance sensing modes have the same compensation range. But the mutual capacitance mode can compensate more parasitic capacitance compared to self-capacitance mode. The tag_touch_measure_data_t structure contains the p_cc_calibration_vals parameter which represents the current channel's compensation circuit value. For more information, refer Measure Data Type (tag_touch_measure_data_t) . Compensation circuit value used in pF = (p_cc_calibration_vals[channel_no]& 0x0F)*0.00675 + ((p_cc_calibration_vals[channel_no] >> 4) & 0x0F)*0.0675 + ((p_cc_calibration_vals[channel_no] >> 8) & 0x0F)*0.675 + ((p_cc_calibration_vals[channel_no] >> 12) & 0x3 ) * 6.75 Also, the touch_xxxxcap_sensors_calibrate function helps the user to calibrate the compensation circuit according to the sensors used. If the routine fails to calibrate the compensation circuit due to saturation, the measurement will return TOUCH_CC_CALIB_ERROR. The compensation circuit could have Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 14 exceeded its limit. The specific sensor that has failed can be determined using p_xxxxcap_measure_data->p_sensors[].statewhen it contains the value of SENSOR_CALIBRATION_ERROR(0x80u). • Typical compensation circuit value for the self-capacitance mode ranges from 10 to 25 pF and for the mutual capacitance mode it is around 2 pF. • The compensation circuit value is affected by sensor size and the ground surrounding the sensor or trace. The compensation ciruit value ranges from 0.00675 pF to 31.48 pF. • If the compensation circuit value exceeds the limit, to reduce the value, use a mesh instead of a solid plane in the sensor and ground plane. • For detailed sensor design, refer http://www.atmel.com/images/doc10752.pdf. 3.9. Design Approach with PTC Two design approaches are possible when using Atmel MCU along with PTC. The Atmel MCU could be predominantly used as an MCU for touch measurement. Else, the Atmel MCU can function as a Host MCU utilizing peripherals such as the USB, ADC, DAC, SERCOM, DMA and GPIO along with the PTC used for "on-chip" touch functionality. The design approaches are: • Atmel MCU with PTC predominantly functioning as a touch MCU – Used for touch sensor status and rotor/slider position detection – Additionally used to indicate touch status using LED, buzzer etc – Sends touch status and rotor/slider position information to a Host MCU • Atmel MCU functions as a Host MCU with on-chip touch functionality – Can be a cost saving design as a single chip solution with on-chip touch functionality – Utilizes other on-chip peripheral for a desired user application Figure 3-12. PTC Design Approach Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 15 3.10. Capacitive Touch Development Cycle The capacitive touch development cycle involves PCB board design to develop the user interface hardware as well as firmware application development. The QTouch Composer PC software available as part of Atmel Studio extension gallery allows for PTC QTouch Library projects to be generated automatically with a desired user configuration for touch sensors. The QTouch Composer also allows for touch sensor data analysis and performance tuning for sensitivity and noise. Figure 3-13. Capacitive Touch Development Cycle Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 16 4. Touch Sensor Debug and Status Information The touch sensor debug information necessary for tuning of the sensors are signal, reference, delta, and compensation capacitance. While the signal, reference and delta help in sensitivity and noise tuning the sensor parameters, the compensation capacitance is an indicator for extreme sensor design. The sensor status and position information are parameters that must be judged by the user application to initate the relevant touch action. 4.1. Signal Signal value is the raw measurement data on a given touch channel. The value increases upon touch. Figure 4-1. Channel Signal 4.2. Reference Reference value of a touch channel is the long term average measurement on a specific channel. It represents: • Resting signal when there is no touch • Initial value obtained during the calibration process • Reference is adapted by Drift Compensation algorithm Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 17 Figure 4-2. Channel Reference 4.3. Delta Delta value of a touch channel represents touch strength. • Delta = (signal - reference) • Deltas increase with touch Figure 4-3. Sensor Delta Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 18 4.4. Touch Status & Slider/Wheel Position The sensor touch status is the primary touch sensor information utilized by a user application. The sensor state can either be ON or OFF. For sliders and wheel, additionally the touch position is of interest. For an 8-bit resolution, the touch position ranges from 0 to 255 end-to-end. It is possible to configure with a lower resolution by configuring setting in the touch library. The sensor touch status and slider/wheel position must always be used once the library completes the measurements. The touch sensor state for mutual capacitance or self-capacitance sensor can be obtained by reading the following boolean variables. bool sensor_state_self = GET_SELFCAP_SENSOR_STATE(SENSOR_NUMBER); bool sensor_state_mutl = GET_MUTLCAP_SENSOR_STATE(SENSOR_NUMBER); The touch sensor rotor or slider position information for mutual capacitance or self-capacitance sensor can be obtained using the following parameters. uint8_t rotor_slider_position_self = GET_SELFCAP_ROTOR_SLIDER_POSITION(ROTOR_SLIDER_NUMBER); uint8_t rotor_slider_position_mutl = GET_MUTLCAP_ROTOR_SLIDER_POSITION(ROTOR_SLIDER_NUMBER); The touch sensor noise status for mutual capacitance or self-capacitance sensor can be obtained using the following parameters. bool sensor_noise_state_self = GET_SELFCAP_SENSOR_NOISE_STATUS(SENSOR_NUMBER); bool sensor_noise_state_mutl = GET_MUTLCAP_SENSOR_NOISE_STATUS(SENSOR_NUMBER); Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 19 5. QTouch Library Atmel QTouch Library makes it simple for developers to embed capacitive touch button, slider, wheel functionality into general purpose Atmel SMART | ARM and AVR® microcontroller applications. The royalty- free QTouch Library provides several library files for each device and supports different numbers of touch channels, enabling both flexibility and efficiency in touch applications. QTouch Library can be used to develop single-chip solutions for many control applications, or to reduce chip count in more complex applications. Developers have the latitude to implement buttons, sliders, and wheels in a variety of combinations on a single interface. Figure 5-1. QTouch Library 5.1. Overview QTouch Library API for PTC can be used for touch sensor pin configuration, acquisition parameter setting as well as periodic sensor data capture and status update operations. The QTouch Library in turn interfaces with the PTC module to perform the necessary action. The PTC module interfaces with the external capacitive touch sensors and is capable of performing self and mutual capacitance method measurements. The library features low power and lumped mode configuration. Figure 5-2. QTouch Library Overview The QTouch Library API is arranged such that the user application can use standalone self-capacitance or mutual capacitance method or both methods, simultaneously. The following table captures the APIs available for each method. For normal operation, it is sufficient to use the set of Regular APIs for each method. The Helper APIs provides additional flexibility to the user application.

Pin, Channel, and Sensor Parameters Mutual capacitance method uses a pair of sensing electrodes for each touch channel. These electrodes are denoted as X and Y lines.

Sensor Individual Parameters This section explains the settings that are specific to the individual sensor. Detect Threshold A sensor's detect threshold defines how much its signal must increase above its reference level to qualify as a potential touch detect. However, the final detection confirmation must satisfy the Detect Integrator (DI) limit. Larger threshold values desensitize sensors since the signal must change more (i.e. requires larger touch) to exceed the threshold level. Conversely, lower threshold levels make sensors more sensitive. Threshold setting depends on the amount of signal swing when a sensor is touched. Usually, thicker front panels or smaller electrodes have smaller signal swing on touch, thus require lower threshold levels. Typically, detect threshold isset to 50% of touch delta. Desired touch delta for a buttons is ~30 to 80 counts and for wheels or sliders is ~50 to 120 counts. Setting Configuration Name Data Type Unit Min Max Typical Threshold detect_threshold threshold_t Counts 3 255 20-50(For buttons) 30-80(For sliders and wheels Detect Hysteresis This setting is sensor detection hysteresis value. It is expressed as a percentage of the sensor detection threshold setting. Once a sensor goes into detect its threshold level is reduced (by the hysteresis value) in order to avoid the sensor dither in and out of detect if the signal level is close to original threshold level. • Setting of 0 = 50% of detect threshold value (HYST_50) • Setting of 1 = 25% of detect threshold value (HYST_25) • Setting of 2 = 12.5% of detect threshold value (HYST_12_5) • Setting of 3 = 6.25% of detect threshold value (HYST_6_25) Setting Configuration Name Data Type Unit Min Max Typical Hysteresis detect_threshold uint8_t (2bits) Enum HYST_6_25 HYST_50 HYST_6_25 Position Resolution The rotor or slider needs the position resolution (angle resolution in case of rotor and linear resolution in case of slider)to be set. Resolution is the number of bits needed to report the position of rotor or slider. It can have values from 2 bits to 8 bits. Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 26 Setting Configuration Name Data Type Unit Min Reported Position Max Reported Position Typical Position Resolution position_resolution uint8_t (3bits) None 2bits 0-3 8bits 0-255 8 Position Hysteresis In case of Mutual Cap, the rotor or slider needs the position hysteresis (angle hysteresis in case of rotor and linear hysteresis in case of slider) to be set. It is the number of positions the user has to move back, before touch position is reported when the direction of scrolling is changed and during the first scrolling after user press. Hysteresis can range from 0 (1 position) to 7 (8 positions). The hysteresis is carried out at 8 bits resolution internally and scaled to desired resolution; therefore at resolutions lower than 8 bits there might be a difference of 1 reported position from the hysteresis setting, depending on where the touch is detected. At lower resolutions, where skipping of the reported positions is observed, hysteresis can be set to 0 (1 position). At Higher resolutions (6 to 8bits), it would be recommended to have a hysteresis of at least 2 positions or more. Note:  It is not valid to have a hysteresis value more than the available bit positions in the resolution. For instance, a hysteresis value of 5 positions with a resolution of 2 bits (4 positions) is invalid. Position hysteresis is invalid (unused) in case of self-capacitance method sensors. Setting Configuration Name Data Type Unit Min Max Typical Position Hysteresis position_hysteresis uint8_t (3bits) - 0 7 8 Adjacent Key Suppression (AKS® ) In designs where the sensors are close together or configured for high sensitivity, multiple sensors might report a detect simultaneously. To allow applications to determine the intended single touch, the touch library provides the user the ability to configure a certain number of sensors in an AKS group. When a group of sensors are in the same AKS group, only the first strongest sensor will report detection. The sensor reporting detection will continue to report detection even if another sensor's delta becomes stronger. The sensor stays indetect until its delta falls lower than its detection threshold. If any more sensors in the AKS group are still in detect onlythe strongest will report detection. At a given time point, only one sensor from each AKS group is reported to be indetect. AKS feature can be enabled or disabled using a macro DEF_XXXXCAP_AKS_ENABLE • 1u = AKS grouping functionality is enabled • 0u = AKS grouping functionality is disabled The library provides the ability to configure a sensor to belong to one of the Adjacent Key Suppression Groups (AKS Group). Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 27 5.2.3. Sensor Global Parameters This section explains the settings that are common all sensors. For instance, if recalibration threshold (one of the global settings) of mutual cap sensors is set as RECAL_100, all mutual capacitance sensors will be configured for a recalibration threshold of 100%.These sensor global parameter settings can be independently set to self-capacitance and mutual capacitance sensors. Detect Integration The QTouch Library features a detect integration mechanism, which confirm detection in a robust environment. The detect integrator (DI) acts as a simple signal filter to suppress false detections caused by spurious events such as electrical noise. A counter is incremented each time the sensor delta has exceeded its threshold and stayed there for a specific numberof acquisitions, without going below the threshold levels. When this counter reaches a preset limit (the DI value) the sensor is finally declared to be touched. If on any acquisition the delta is below the threshold level, the counter is cleared and the process has to start from the beginning. The DI process is applicable to a 'release' (going out of detect) event as well. For example, if the DI value is 10, the device has to exceed its threshold and stay there for (10 + 2) successive acquisitions without going below the threshold level, before the sensor is declared to be touched. Setting Configuration Name Data Type Unit Min Max Typical DI DEF_MUTLCAP_DI, DEF_SELFCAP_DI uint8_t Cycles 0 255 4 Max-ON Duration If an object unintentionally contacts a sensor resulting in a touch detection for a prolonged interval it is usually desirable to recalibrate the sensor in order to restore its function, after a time delay of a few seconds. The Maximum ON duration timer monitors such detections; if detection exceeds the timer's settings, the sensor is automatically recalibrated. After a recalibration has taken place, the affected sensor once again functions normally even if it still in contact with the foreign object. Max-ON duration can be disabled by setting it to zero (infinite timeout) in which case the channel never recalibrates during a continuous detection (but the host could still command it). Setting Configuration Name Data Type Unit Min Max Typical Maximum ON Duration DEF_MUTLCAP_MAX_ON_DURATION, DEF_SELFCAP_MAX_ON_DURATION uint8_t 200ms 0 255 30(6s) Away from Touch and Towards Touch Drift Rate Drift in a general sense means adjusting reference level (of a sensor) to allow compensation for temperature (or other factor) effect on physical sensor characteristics. Decreasing reference level for such compensation is called Negative drift & increasing reference level is called Positive drift. Specifically, the drift compensation should be set to compensate faster for increasing signals than for decreasing signals. Signals can drift because of changes in physical sensor characteristics over time and temperature. It is crucial that such drift be compensated for; otherwise false detections and sensitivity shifts can occur. Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 28 Drift compensation occurs only while there is no detection in effect. Once a finger is sensed, the drift compensation mechanism ceases since the signal is legitimately detecting an object. Drift compensation works only when the signal inquestion has not crossed the 'Detect threshold' level. The drift compensation mechanism can be asymmetric. It can be made to occur in one direction faster than it does in the other simply by changing the appropriate setup parameters. Signal values of a sensor tend to increase when an object (touch) is approaching it or a characteristic change of sensor over time and temperature. Increasing signals should not be compensated quickly, as an approaching finger could be compensated for partially or entirely before even touching the channel (towards touch drift). However, an object over the channel which does not cause detection, and for which the sensor has already made full allowance (over some period of time), could suddenly be removed leaving the sensor with an artificially suppressed reference level and thus become insensitive to touch. In the latter case, the sensor should compensate for the object's removal by raising the reference level relatively quickly (away from touch drift).

It defines the length of time the drift is halted after a key detection.This feature is useful in cases of high density keypads where touching a key or floating a finger over the keypad would cause untouched keys to drift, and therefore create a sensitivity shift, and ultimately inhibit any touch detection.

Recalibration threshold is expressed as a percentage of the detection threshold setting. This setting is an enumerated value and its settings are as follows: • Setting of 0 = 100% of detect threshold (RECAL_100) • Setting of 1 = 50% of detect threshold (RECAL_50) • Setting of 2 = 25% of detect threshold (RECAL_25) • Setting of 3 = 12.5% of detect threshold (RECAL_12_5) • Setting of 4 = 6.25% of detect threshold (RECAL_6_25) Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 29 However, an absolute value of 4 is the hard limit for this setting. For example, if the detection threshold is, 40 and the Recalibration threshold value is set to 4. Although this implies an absolute value of 2 (40 * 6.25% = 2.5), it is hard limited to 4.

If this condition persists for more than the away from touch recalibration delay, i.e., qt_pos_recal_delay period, then an automatic recalibration is carried out. A counter is incremented each time the sensor delta is equal to the away from touch recalibration threshold and stayed there for a specific number of acquisitions. When this counter reaches a preset limit (the PRD value) the sensor is finally recalibrated. If on any acquisition the delta is seen to be greater than the away from touch recalibration threshold level, the counter is cleared and the away from touch drifting is performed. For example, if the away from touch recalibration delay setting is 10, then the delta has to drop below the recalibration threshold and stay there for 10 acquisitions in succession without going below the threshold level, before the sensor is declared to be recalibrated. Away from touch recalibration can be disabled with a setting of 0.

This mode is suited for best response time. When TOUCH_APPLN_DRIVEN mode is selected, the library does not initiate repeated touch measurement to resolve touch press, release and calibration. This mode suits deterministic PTC interrupt execution time for applications requiring stringent CPU time requirements. As repeated touch measurements are delayed due to other critical application code being executed. This mode can potentially affect the touch response time. In order to improve the touch response time with the TOUCH_APPLN_DRIVEN mode, the touch_xxxcap_sensors_measure API call should be modified as below to initiate touch measurements periodically or when the burst again acquisition status flag has been set. if ((touch_time.time_to_measure_touch == 1u) ||(p_mutlcap_measure_data->acq_status & TOUCH_BURST_AGAIN) { /* Start a touch sensors measurement process. */ touch_ret = touch_mutlcap_sensors_measure(touch_time.current_time_ms,NORMAL_ACQ_MODE,touch_mutlcap_measure Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 30 _complete_callback); } Setting Configuration Name Data Type Options Typical Sensor postprocessing mode DEF_MUTLCAP_TOUCH_POSTPROCESS_MODE, DEF_SELFCAP_TOUCH_POSTPROCESS_MODE uint16_t TOUCH_LIBRARY_DR IVEN, TOUCH_APPLN_DRIV EN TOUCH_LIBRARY_DRIVEN Charge Share Delay Charge share delay indicates the number of additional charge cycles that are inserted within a capacitance measurement cycle to ensure that the touch sensor is fully charged. The CSD value is dependent on the sensor capacitance along with the series resistor on the Y line. Note:  Any increase in the charge share delay also increases the measurement time for a specific configuration. When manual tuning is performed, the CSD value for the sensor with largest combination of capacitance along with series resistance should be considered. Setting Configuration Name Data Type Options Min Max Typical CSD (Charge Share Delay) DEF_MUTL_CAP_CSD_VALUE, DEF_SELF_CAP_CSD_VALUE uint8_t PTC cycles 0 250 0 How to tune the CSD setting manually? 1. Initially, use an arbitrarily large value such as 64 and note the signal value. A large value ensures that the charge time is enough for full charge transfer 2. Reduce the CSD and verify the signal value drop, until signal is approximately 97-98% of the value used initially. This ensures a good charge transfer without any major loss in the signal. 3. Continue the same procedure [Step 1 and 2] for all the sensors available in the system. Use the largest value of the CSD used in the system for the global setting. Note:  For the same CSD setting, Mutual capacitance has a lower burst time than self-capacitance. A unit increase in mutual capacitance CSD consumes around 12 PTC cycles. Whereas for the selfcapacitance an increase in CSD consumes approximately twice the mutual capacitance CSD time with the same setting. Auto-OS Signal Stability Limit The parameter DEF_XXXXCAP_AUTO_OS_SIGNAL_STABILITY_LIMIT defines the stability limit of the signals for performing over-samples. Stability limit is the variance in sensor signal value under noisy environment. A high level of stability limit is set to auto trigger oversamples on large noise presence. It is recommended to keep this setting close to the lowest sensor detect threshold of the system and tune it further based on the noise. Range: 1 to 1000 5.2.4. Sensor Acquisition Parameters Filter Level The filter level setting controls the number of samples taken to resolve each acquisition. A higher filter level setting provides improved signal to noise ratio under noisy conditions, while increasing the total time Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 31 for measurement resulting in increased power consumption and response time.

In a case where 'Filter level' is set to FILTER_LEVEL_4 and 'Auto Oversample' is set to AUTO_OS_4, 4 oversamples are taken with stable signal values and 16 oversamples are taken when unstable signal is detected. This setting is available on per channel basis, allowing easy tuning. A higher filter level setting provides improved signal to noise ratio under noisy conditions, while increasing the total time for measurement resulting in increased power consumption and response time.

FREQ_HOP_SEL_1 setting inserts 0 PTC clock cycle between consecutive measurements. FREQ_HOP_SEL_16 setting inserts 15 PTC clock cycles. Hence, higher delay setting will increase the total time taken for capacitance measurement on a given sensor as compared to a lower delay setting.

Sensor Calibration Auto Tune Setting Auto tune parameter setting is passed to the touch_xx_sensors_calibrate API in order to allow users to tune the PTC module for power consumption or noise performance. AUTO_TUNE_PRSC When Auto tuning of pre-scaler is selected, the PTC uses the user defined internal series resistor setting (DEF_XXXXCAP_SENSE_RESISTOR_PER_NODE ) and the pre-scaler is adjusted to slow down the PTC operation to ensure full charge transfer. Auto tuning of pre-scaler with RSEL_VAL_100 as the series resistor results in least power consumption while resulting in increased power consumption and touch response time. AUTO_TUNE_RSEL When Auto tuning of the series resistor is selected, the PTC runs at user defined pre-scaler setting speed (DEF_XXXXCAP_CLK_PRESCALE_PER_NODE) and the internal series resistor is tuned automatically to the optimum value to allow for full charge transfer. Auto tuning of series resistor with PRSC_DIV_SEL_1 as the PTC pre-scale results in best case power consumption. AUTO_TUNE_NONE When manual tuning option is selected, the user defined values of PTC pre-scaler and series resistor is used for PTC operation as given in DEF_XXXXCAP_CLK_PRESCALE_PER_NODE and DEF_XXXXCAP_SENSE_RESISTOR_PER_NODE Setting Configuration Name Data Type Unit Values Typical Auto tune Provided to touch_xxcap_sensors_calibrate API input auto_tune_type_t None AUTO_TUNE_NONE, AUTO_TUNE_PRSC,AU TO_TUNE_RSEL AUTO_TUNE_NONE 5.2.6. Sensor Noise Measurement and Lockout Parameters Noise is measured on a per-channel basis after each channel acquisition, using historical data on a rolling window of successive measurements. Reported noise to exclude the instance of an applied or removed touch contact, but the noise indication must react sufficiently fast that false touch detection before noise lockout is prevented. Signal change from sample to sample during the window buffer is compared to the stability limit. Noise is reported only when two changes occur within the window period and both of which exceed the DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_MEAS_SIGNAL_STABILITY_LIMIT limit. Noise is calculated using the following algorithm: if (swing count > 2) { Nk = ((|Sn – Sn-1| > DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_MEAS_SIGNAL_STABILITY))?(0):(|Sn-Sn-1|- DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_MEAS_SIGNAL_STABILITY)) } else { Nk = 0 } Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 35 The swing count is number of signal changes that exceed DEF_MUTLCAP_NOISE_MEAS_SIGNAL_STABILITY_LIMIT limit during buffer window period. When the measured noise exceeds DEF_MUTLCAP_NOISE_LIMIT, the touch library locks out sensors, reports no touch detection and drifting is stopped. Noise measurement is provided for all the channels. Each byte in p_xxxxcap_measure_data-> p_nm_ch_noise_val provides the noise level associated with that channel. Noise indication is provided for all the sensors configured by the application. A bit is available in p_xxxxcap_measure_data-> p_sensor_noise_status for each sensor to determine whether the sensor is noisy or not. The following code snippet provides the sample code to read the noise status of a particular sensor. Figure 5-9. Noise Calculation Noise Measurement Signal Stability Limit Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 36 The parameter DEF_XXXXAP_NOISE_MEAS_SIGNAL_STABILITY_LIMIT is the variance in sensor signal value under noisy environment. Any noise level over and above the noise signal stability limit contributes to the Noise limit. It is recommended to keep this setting close to the lowest sensor detect threshold of the system and tune it further based on the noise. Signal values can change from sample to sample during a window buffer period. The difference between adjacent buffer value is compared to the user configured stability limit. Noise is reported only when two changes occur within the specified window period and only if both of which exceed the stability limit. Range: 1 to 1000 Noise Limit The DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_LIMIT specifies the limit to the total noise accumulated over the noise buffer count. If the accumulated noise exceeds the noise limit, then lockout is triggered. There are two purposes for this parameter: • If the noise level calculated during a running window exceeds DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_LIMIT, then the corresponding sensor are declared noisy and sensor global noisy bit is set as '1'. • If the noise level calculated during a running window exceeds DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_LIMIT, then system triggers the sensor lockout functionality. Range: 1 to 255 Noise Measurement Buffer Count The DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_MEAS_BUFFER_CNT parameter is used to select the buffer count for noise measurement buffer. Range: 3 to 10 (If N number of samples differences have to be checked, define this parameter as "N + 1") If N = 4 then set DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_MEAS_BUFFER_CNT as 5u. Sensor Lockout Selection This feature locks out the sensors when the measured noise exceeds DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_LIMIT and does not report a touch. This prevents post-processing. So, the high level of noise cannot cause the channel to report false touch drift or recalibrate incorrectly. The DEF_XXXXCAP_LOCKOUT_SEL parameter is used to select the lockout functionality method. • If DEF_XXXXCAP_LOCKOUT_SEL is set to SINGLE_SENSOR_LOCKOUT and a sensor's noise level is greater than DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_LIMIT, then corresponding sensor is locked out from touch detection and drifting is disabled. • If DEF_XXXXCAP_LOCKOUT_SEL is set to GLOBAL_SENSOR_LOCKOUT and any sensor's noise level is greater than DEF_XXXXCAP_NOISE_LIMIT, then all sensors are locked out from touch detection and drifting is disabled. • If DEF_XXXXCAP_LOCKOUT_SEL is set to NO_LOCKOUT, then lockout feature is disabled. Note:  Global sensors noisy bit will be available for SINGLE_SENSOR_LOCKOUT and GLOBAL_SENSOR_LOCKOUT. Global sensors noisy bit will not be available for NO_LOCK_OUT. Range: 0 to 2 Sensor Lockout Countdown Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 37 If the sensor signal moves from noisy to a good condition and stays there for a DEF_XXXXCAP_ LOCKOUT_CNTDOWN number of measurements, the sensor is unlocked and sensors are ready for touch detection and drifting is enabled. Note:  This parameter is valid only for global lockout. Range: 1 to 255 5.2.7. Sensor Acquisition Frequency Auto Tuning Parameters The Frequency Auto Tune feature provides the best quality of signal data for touch detection by automatically selecting acquisition frequencies showing the best SNR in FREQ_MODE_HOP mode. During each measurement cycle, the signal change since the last acquisition at the same frequency is recorded for each sensor. After the cycle, when all sensors have been measured at the present acquisition frequency, the largest signal variation of all sensors is stored as the variance for that frequency stage. The variance for each frequency stage is compared to the DEF_XXXXCAP_FREQ_AUTO_SIGNAL_ STABILITY_LIMIT limit, and if the limit is exceeded, a per-stage counter is incremented. If the measured variance is lower than the limit, the counter is decremented, if it has not been set as zero. If all frequencies display noise exceeding the stability limit, only the counter for the specific frequency stage with the highest variance is incremented after its cycle. When a frequency counter reaches the DEF_XXXXCAP_FREQ_AUTO_TUNE_IN_CNT (auto-tune count in variable), that frequency stage is selected for auto-tuning. A new frequency selection is applied and the counters and variances for all frequencies are reset. After a frequency has been selected for auto-tuning, the count-in for that frequency stage is set to half the original count-in and the process is repeated until either all frequencies have been measured or a frequency is selected which does not re-trigger autotuning is determined. If all frequencies have been tested, and the variation exceeds the DEF_XXXXCAP_FREQ_AUTO_SIGNAL_STABILITY_LIMIT limit then the frequency with the lowest variance is selected for the frequency stage currently under tuning. The auto-tune process is re-initialized and further tuning does not take place until a frequency stage's high variance counter again reaches the count in limit.

A signal stability limit level is set to auto tune acquisition frequency on noise presence. It is recommended to keep this setting close to the lowest sensor detect threshold of the system and tune it further based on the noise. Range: 1 to 1000 Frequency Auto Tune in Counter The DEF_XXXXCAP_FREQ_AUTO_TUNE_IN_CNT parameter is used to trigger the frequency auto tune.If sensor signal change at each frequency exceeds the value specified as DEF_XXXXCAP_FREQ_AUTO_SIGNAL_STABILITY_LIMIT for DEF_XXXXCAP_FREQ_AUTO_TUNE_IN_CNT, then frequency auto tune will be triggered at this frequency.

Quick Re-burst Parameter Quick Reburst This macro is used to enable or disable quick re-burst feature. When Quick re-burst is enabled, upon user touch and release, only that touched sensor or channel is subsequently measured to resolve detect integration (or debounce). Enabling this feature results in best touch response time. When Quick re-burst is disabled, upon user touch and release, all sensors or channels are measured to resolve detect integration (or debounce). This feature should only be disabled when developing any special application involving all sensor measurements during user activity. Within an AKS (Adjacent Key suppression) group, all the sensors within that group are measured during user touch independent of this feature being enabled or disabled. 5.2.9. Common Parameters Measurement Period The measurement period setting is used to set the periodic interval for touch sensor measurement. The minimum measurement period setting should be greater than the time taken to complete measurement on all sensors. This can be simply determined by calling the touch_xx_sensors_measure API in a while loop and then toggling a GPIO pin in the measurement complete callback. main() { while(1) { touch_ret = touch_mutlcap_sensors_measure(touch_time.current_time_ms,NORMAL_ACQ_MODE,touch_mutlcap_measure _complete_callback); } } void touch_mutlcap_measure_complete_callback( void ) { if (!(p_mutlcap_measure_data->acq_status & TOUCH_BURST_AGAIN)) { /* Set the Mutual Cap measurement done flag. */ p_mutlcap_measure_data->measurement_done_touch = 1u; port_pin_toggle_output_level(PIN_PB00); } } Setting Configuration Name Data Type Unit Values Max Typical Sensor measurement interval DEF_TOUCH_MEASUREMENT_PERIOD_MS uint16_t millisecond Should be found through GPIO pin toggle procedure. 65535 20 PTC Interrupt Priority Level The Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) in the SAM has four different priority levels. The priority level of thePTC end of conversion ISR can be selected based on application requirements to accommodate time critical operations. Setting the PTC interrupt priority level to lowest can have an impact on the touch response time, depending on the execution time taken by other higher priority interrupts. Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 40 Setting Configuration Name Data Type Unit Min Max Typical PTC interrupt priority level DEF_TOUCH_PTC_ISR_LVL uint8_t None 0 (Highest Priority) 3 (Lowest Priority) 3 To avoid stack overflow, ensure that adequate stack size has been set in the user application.This configuration is applicable only for SAM devices. touch_suspend_app_cb Callback function pointer that must be initialized by the application before a touch library API is called. Touch library would call the function pointed by this function when suspension operation has to be carry on by the application. Setting Configuration Name Data Type Returns Suspend Callback touch_suspend_app_cb void(* volatile touch_suspend_app_cb) (void) void Low power Sensor Event Periodicity When the CPU returns to standby mode from active, the sensor configured as the low power sensor is scanned at this interval. A high value for this parameter will reduce power consumption but increase response time for a low power sensor. The following macros are used for configuring the low power sensor event periodicity: • The macro LOWPOWER_PER0_SCAN_3_P_9_MS sets the scan rate at 3.9ms • The macro LOWPOWER_PER1_SCAN_7_P_8_MS sets the scan rate at 7.8ms • The macro LOWPOWER_PER2_SCAN_15_P_625_MS sets the scan rate at 15.625ms • The macro LOWPOWER_PER3_SCAN_31_P_25_MS sets the scan rate at 31.25ms • The macro LOWPOWER_PER4_SCAN_62_P_5_MS sets the scan rate at 62.5ms • The macro LOWPOWER_PER5_SCAN_125_MS sets the scan rate at 125ms • The macro LOWPOWER_PER6_SCAN_250_MS sets the scan rate at 250ms • The macro LOWPOWER_PER7_SCAN_500_MS sets the scan rate at 500ms Low power Sensor Drift Periodicity This parameter configures the scan interval for a single active measurement during low power mode. This active measurement is required for reference tracking of low power sensor.

Only one sensor can be configured as low power sensor. Low power sensor can be a normal sensor or a lumped sensor. 5.2.10. Moisture Parameters Moisture Tolerance Enable The macro DEF_XXXXCAP_MOIS_TOLERANCE_ENABLE is used to Enable or disable Moisture detection feature. Moisture Quick Reburst The macro DEF_XXXXCAP_MOIS_QUICK_REBURST_ENABLE is used to enable or disable quick re-burst feature within a given moisture group. When enabled, if within a given moisture group, when any sensor is touched, repeated measurements are done only that sensor to resolve detect integration or de-bounce. When disabled, if within a given moisture group, when any sensor is touched, repeated measurements are done on all sensors within the moisture group to resolve detect integration or de-bounce. It is recommended to enable this feature for best touch response time. Moisture groups The macro DEF_XXXXCAP_NUM_MOIS_GROUPS specifies the total number of individual moisture group present the system. 5.2.11. PTC Lines Ground Feature PTC GPIO State The macro DEF_XXXXCAP_PTC_GPIO_STATE is used to set the unmeasured self/mutual capacitance PTC lines to Ground / Vcc in between PTC measurement cycle. Setting the PTC lines to GND_WHEN_NOT_MEASURED will set the state of the pin to low whenever the pin is unmeasured. Setting the PTC lines to PULLHIGH_WHEN_NOT_MEASURED will make the PTC lines to float in between sensor measurement in a measurement cycle. It is recommended to set GND_WHEN_NOT_MEASURED configuration to get low power. 5.3. Moisture Tolerance Moisture tolerance check executes at the end of each measurement cycle and compares the sum of delta of all sensors in a moisture tolerance group against pre-configured threshold. If delta sum is greater than sensor moisture lock threshold and less than system moisture lock threshold, then the ON-state sensors within moisture tolerance group will be considered as moisture affected. If delta sum is greater than system moisture lock threshold, all sensors within the moisture tolerance group will be considered as moisture affected. This condition is referred as moisture global lock out. The library will come out of the moisture global lock out state when delta sum is less than threshold for 5 consecutive measurements. Self cap and mutual cap sensors cannot be configured in a single moisture group, Self cap moisture tolerance and mutual cap Moisture tolerance features can be enabled or disabled separately. Note:  Lumped sensor and the sensor which is part of the specific lump should not be assigned to same moisture group. Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 42 Figure 5-11. Moisture Tolerance Algorithm 5.3.1. Moisture Tolerance Group This feature enables the customer application to group a set of sensors in to single moisture tolerance group. If moisture on one sensor might affect other sensors due to physical proximity, they must be grouped together into one Moisture tolerance group. Using this feature the application can disable moisture tolerance detection for a set of sensors, Multiple Moisture tolerance groups can be formed by the customer application. The library supports up to a maximum of 8 moisture groups. Note:  Changing the moisture tolerance group configuration during runtime is not recommended. However, muti-touch group configuration can be changed during runtime. 5.3.2. Multi-touch Group If the user wants to touch multiple sensors within the moisture tolerance group simultaneously to indicate a specificrequest, then the application should configure those sensors into single multi-touch group. Multiple multi-touch groups can be formed by the customer application. The library supports a maximum of 8 multi-touch groups within a single moisture tolerance group. Moisture tolerance feature improves a system’s performance under the following scenarios: • Droplets of water sprayed on the front panel surface • Heavy water poured on the front panel surface • Large water puddle on multiple sensors Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 43 • Trickling water on multiple sensors Moisture tolerance feature is not expected to offer any significant performance improvement under the following scenarios: • Large isolated puddle on single sensor • Direct water pour on single sensor Within the same moisture group, user should not configure all the sensors to the single multi-touch group. 5.4. Reading Sensor States When noise immunity and moisture tolerance features are enabled the validity of the sensor sate is based on the moisture status and noise status. Refer Noise Counter Measures and Moisture Parameters for information on noise immunity and moisture tolerance status of sensors. The state of a sensor is valid only when the sensor is not affected by noise and moisture. If a sensor is noisy or affected by moisture, then the state of sensor must be considered as OFF. The code snippet below depicts the same for mutual-cap sensors. When a sensor is touched or released during DI, library will burst on channels corresponding to sensors whose state is other than OFF or DISABLED. If any sensor in an AKS group is in a state other than OFF or DISABLED, the library will burst channels corresponding sensors belong to that AKS group. If a sensor in any moisture group is in a state other than OFF or DISABLED, the library will burst on channels corresponding to sensors belonging to that moisture group. if(! (GET_MUTLCAP_SENSOR_NOISE_STATUS(SENSOR_NUMBER))) { if(! (GET_MUTLCAP_SENSOR_MOIS_STATUS (SENSOR_NUMBER))) { /*Sensor state is valid Read sensor state */ } else { /* Sensor is Moisture affected*/ } } else { /* Sensor is noisy */ } 5.5. Application Flow 5.5.1. Application Flow SAM The application periodically initiates a touch measurement on either mutual capacitance or selfcapacitance sensors. At the end of each sensor measurement, the PTC module generates an end of conversion (EOC) interrupt. The touch measurement is performed sequentially until all the sensors are measured. Additional post-processing is performed on the measured sensor data to determine touch status and rotor/slider position. An interrupt callback function is triggered to indicate completion of measurement. The recommended sequence of operation facilitates the CPU to either sleep or perform other functions during touch sensor measurement. Before using the PTC, the generic clock generator for the PTC peripheral should be set up by the Application. It is recommended to set the PTC generic clock to 4MHz.

Application Flow - megaAVR The application periodically initiates a touch measurement on either mutual capacitance or selfcapacitance sensors either in polled or interrupt mode. In polling mode, touch API's are blocking API's and will consume more CPU time. In ISR mode, touch API's are non blocking and will generates an end of conversion (EOC) interrupt at the end of each sensor measurement.Touch measurement is intiated on first sensor by calling touch_xxxxcap_sensors_measure() API .The touch measurement is initiated sequentially and additional post-processing is performed on the measured sensor data to determine touch status and rotor/slider position by calling touch_ptc_process() API in application context instead of interrupt context. A callback function is triggered to indicate completion of measurement .The ISR mode sequence of operation facilitates the CPU to either sleep or perform other functions during touch sensor measurement. It is recommended to set the PTC clock to 4MHz.

State Machine The PTC QTouch Library state machine that presents the various library States and Event transitions can be found in the figure below. The state machine is maintained separately for each of the touch acquisition method, which means the state of mutual capacitance sensor operation can be different from the state of self-capacitance allowing them to co-exist.

The sensor specific configuration parameters can be provided as input arguments to this API. The touch_xx_sensors_calibrate API calibrates all the configured sensors and prepares the sensors for normal operation. The touch_xx_sensors_measure API initiates a sensor measurement on all the configured sensors. The touch_xx_sensors_deinit function is used to clear the initialized library state. Used for clearing the internal library data and states. When called will modify the library state to TOUCH_STATE_NULL. The touch_xxxx_lowpower_sensor_enable_event_measure API is used to start a event trigger based low power sensor measurement. Touch Library Suspend Resume Operation The touch library provides touch_suspend_ptc, touch_resume_ptc API to suspend and resume the PTC. When suspend API is called, the touch library initiates the suspend operation and return to the application. After completing the current PTC conversion, the touch library will initiate suspend operation and call the application touch suspend callback function pointer. The suspend complete callback function pointer has to be registered by the application. Note:  If it is not registered, then the suspend call will return TOUCH_INVALID_INPUT_PARAM. The application then should disable corresponding clock to reduce the power consumption. The following flowchart depicts the suspend sequence.

To resume the operations, perform the following sequence: Figure 5-17. Resume Sequence The SAM controllers may be configured to operate PTC touch sensing autonomously using the Event System. In this mode, a single sensor channel is designated as the 'Low Power' key and may be periodically measured for touch detection without any CPU action. The CPU may be held in STANDBY throughout the operation, minimizing power consumption. The low power key may be a discrete electrode with one Y (Sense) line for self-capacitance or one X (Drive) plus one Y (Sense) for mutual capacitance, or it may be a combination of multiple Drive and/or Sense lines as a lumped mode sensor as described. With this method, a fast response may be achieved even in large key-count applications while operating at an extremely low power level, drawing less than 10uA at 3.3V. Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 49 5.8. Operation Modes The QTouch Library can operate in the following sensor measurement modes. • Periodic measurement • Continuous measurement 5.8.1. Periodic Measurement In the periodic measurement mode, sensor measurement is initiated by the application through a periodic event such as timer interrupt. The periodic measurement mode scenario is when none of the sensors are touched. While a long measurement period can be used to achieve lower device power consumption, a short measurement period is required for better touch response time. Hence, the measurement period should be tuned to suit a given application. Typical measurement period can range between 20 millisecond to 250 millisecond. Figure 5-18. Periodic Measurement Mode Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 50 5.8.2. Continuous Measurement In the continuous measurement mode, back to back sensor measurement can be initiated from the touch library. This mode can be triggered to resolve user presence or resolve calibration under the following scenario. • Resolve user presence, when sensor is touched or released • Resolve calibration, when – Sensor is calibrated using the touch_xx_sensors_calibrate API – Sensor is in Away from touch re-calibration condition – Sensor is in Max-on duration condition The TOUCH_BURST_AGAIN acquisition status data bit field in the measure data structure is set to indicate continuous measurement mode. void touch_mutlcap_measure_complete_callback(void) { if (!(p_mutlcap_measure_data->acq_status & TOUCH_BURST_AGAIN)) { /* Set the Mutual Cap measurement done flag. */ p_mutlcap_measure_data->measurement_done_touch = 1u; } } Touch Library Acquisition Status Flags The touch library acquisition status information during continuous measurement mode is available using the touch_acq_status_t acq_status element of the touch_measure_data_t touch measure data structure.

When TOUCH_LIBRARY_DRIVEN mode is selected, the library self-initiates repeated touch measurements to resolve touch press, release and calibration. This mode is suited for best response time. When TOUCH_APPLN_DRIVEN mode is selected, the library does not initiate repeated touch measurement to resolve touch press, release and calibration. This mode suits deterministic PTC interrupt execution time for applications requiring stringent CPU time requirements. As repeated touch measurements are delayed due to other critical application code being executed. This mode can potentially affect the touch response time. In order to improve the response time with the TOUCH_APPLN_DRIVEN mode, the following condition should be applied to initiate sensor measurement, so as to cater for additional measurements without any delay. The same condition can also be applied to other application scenario such as sleep to check for pending acquisitions to be completed before the system can go to sleep. if ((touch_time.time_to_measure_touch == 1u)||(p_mutlcap_measure_data->acq_status & TOUCH_BURST_AGAIN)) { /* Start a touch sensors measurement process periodically, or if there is a pending measurement. */ touch_ret = touch_mutlcap_sensors_measure(touch_time.current_time_ms,NORMAL_ACQ_MODE,touch_mutlcap_meas ure_complete_callback); } 5.9.

Tuning for Noise Performance The PTC has been designed with great care making it easy to design a capacitive touch solution, while at the same time maintaining high quality of touch and performance. Nevertheless in any touch sensing application, the system designer must consider how electrical interference in the target environment may affect the performance of the sensors. Touch sensors with insufficient tuning can show failures in tests of either radiated or conducted noise, which can occur in the environment or power domain of the appliance or may be generated by the appliance itself during normal operation. In many applications there are quality standards which must be met where EMC performance criteria are clearly defined. However meeting the standards cannot be considered as proof that the system will never show EMC problems, as the standards include only the most commonly occurring types and sources of noise. Noise immunity comes at a cost of increased touch response time and power consumption. The system designer must carry out proper tuning of the touch sensors in order to ensure least power consumption. The PTC QTouch library has anumber of user configurable features which can be tuned to give the best balance between touch response time, noise immunity and power consumption. 6.1. Noise Sources Noise sources that affect touch sensor performance can be classified as follows.

Noise Counter Measures The effects of noise are highly dependent on the amplitude of the noise signal induced or injected onto the sensors, and the frequency profile of that noise signal. Generally, this noise can be classified as - • Broadband noise • Narrow band noise 6.2.1. Broadband Noise Counter Measures Broadband noise refers to noise signals whose frequency components are not harmonically related to the capacitance measurement acquisition frequencies of the PTC. Provided that the maximum and minimum voltage levels of the acquisition signal combined with noise signals are within the input range of the PTC and a sufficiently large number of samples are taken, Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 54 broadband noise interference can be averaged out by setting a high value of Filter level (DEF_MUTLCAP_FILTER_LEVEL_PER_NODE, DEF_SELFCAP_FILTER_LEVEL_PER_NODE) and Auto oversample (DEF_MUTLCAP_AUTO_OS_PER_NODE, DEF_SELFCAP_AUTO_OS_PER_NODE) settings. If the noise amplitude is excessive, then PTC components experience saturation of measurement. In this case the acquisition signals combined with the noise signals are outside the input range of the PTC, which results in clipping of the measurements. Often the clipping is not observable in the resolved measurement, as it occurs only on a portion of the measurement samples, but the presence of clipped samples prevents effective averaging of the sample points. In this case, averaging of samples will not result in a noise-free measurement even with large rates of oversampling. The resolved signal will show a shift from its correct level due to asymmetry of signal clipping. Configuration Parameter Setting DEF_MUTLCAP_FILTER_LEVEL_PER_NODE, DEF_SELFCAP_FILTER_LEVEL_PER_NODE FILTER_LEVEL_64 DEF_MUTLCAP_AUTO_OS_PER_NODE, DEF_SELFCAP_AUTO_OS_PER_NODE AUTO_OS_DISABLE DEF_MUTLCAP_FREQ_MODE, DEF_SELFCAP_FREQ_MODE FREQ_MODE_NONE DEF_MUTLCAP_CLK_PRESCALE_PER_NODE, DEF_SELFCAP_CLK_PRESCALE_PER_NODE PRSC_DIV_SEL_1 DEF_MUTLCAP_SENSE_RESISTOR_PER_NODE, DEF_SELFCAP_SENSE_RESISTOR_PER_NODE RSEL_VAL_100 Auto-tune input to touch_mutlcap_sensors_calibrate(), touch_selfcap_sensors_calibrate API AUTO_TUNE_PRSC STEP 1: PREVENT CLIPPING This requires the implementation of a hardware low pass filter in order to reduce the scale of the noise combined with acquisition signal. The sensor capacitance is combined with a series resistor on the Y (Sense) line, either the PTC internal resistor or externally mounted on the PCB. The external series resistor should be mounted between the Y line of the device to the Sensor, closest to the device pin. Note:  Always use an external series resistor for self-capacitance applications in order to prevent clipping. The internal series resistor of the PTC is limited to 100K. Depending on the noise levels, external series resistors up to1 megaohms can be evaluated. STEP 2: CHARGE TRANSFER TEST As an effect of adding a series resistor to form a low pass filter, the time constant for charging the sensors is increased. It is essential to ensure that the sensor capacitance is fully charged and discharged during each measurement sampling. Insufficient charging can be observed as a reduced touch delta or it may be seen on an oscilloscope by connecting to the sense electrode. However, this problem may not be apparent in the touch sensor operation; the application may behave perfectly well even in the presence of low-level noise, but show much worse performance during noise tests with the addition of the resistor compared to a configuration which excludes the resistor. Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 55 Charge transfer though Auto tuning setting: The QTouch library Auto tune setting provides a mechanism which carries out a charge transfer test on each enabled key and sets the prescalar to the fastest available setting ensuring full charge transfer. The following combination of setting should be used. • DEF_MUTLCAP_SENSE_RESISTOR_PER_NODE and DEF_SELFCAP_SENSE_RESISTOR_PER_NODE should be set to RSEL_VAL_100. • Auto tune pre-scaler AUTO_TUNE_PRSC should be provided as input parameter to touch_mutlcap_sensors_calibrate( AUTO_TUNE_PRSC )and touch_mutlcap_sensors_calibrate(AUTO_TUNE_PRSC) Testing for Charge transfer by Manual tuning: • If the AUTO_TUNE_NONE setting is provided as an input to the touch_mutlcap_sensors_calibrate(AUTO_TUNE_NONE ) and touch_mutlcap_sensors_calibrate (AUTO_TUNE_NONE) calibration API, then the PTC uses the user defined settings of the PTC Clock pre-scaler ( DEF_MUTLCAP_CLK_PRESCALE, DEF_SELFCAP_CLK_PRESCALE_PER_NODE) and internal series resistor (DEF_MUTLCAP_SENSE_RESISTOR_PER_NODE, DEF_SELFCAP_SENSE_RESISTOR_PER_NODE). • Reference measurement: An acquisition measurement (Signal value) is taken with the prescalar set to maximum, i.e. PRSC_DIV_SEL_8 Test measurement: A second measurement (Signal value) is taken with reduced prescalar: PRSC_DIV_SEL_4 If the difference between the two measurements is less than ~3% (1/32) of the first value, the conclusion is that fullcharge transfer is achieved with PRSC_DIV_SEL_4. This measurement is repeated for PRSC_DIV_SEL_2 and PRSC_DIV_SEL_1 to find the fastest PTC operating speed for which full charge transfer is achieved. STEP 3: ADJUST OVERSAMPLING Once clipping is prevented by hardware filtering and full charge transfer is ensured the next step is to find the best settings for Filter level ( DEF_MUTLCAP_FILTER_LEVEL_PER_NODE , DEF_SELFCAP_FILTER_LEVEL_PER_NODE ) and Auto over samples (DEF_MUTLCAP_AUTO_OS_PER_NODE , DEF_SELFCAP_AUTO_OS_PER_NODE). Auto over samples feature provides the advantage that additional samples are only taken on a sensor which has showna significant change. In the absence of such a change, the measurement cycle can be much shorter compared to applying ( * AUTO_OS) as the oversampling rate on every measurement. Care should be taken when using AUTO_OS to ensure that it does not occur too frequently. The measurement time for FILTER_LEVEL samples can be represented as: A+ (B * FILTER_LEVEL) Where A is the total time for PTC configuration and post-processing, and B is the oversampling period (the per sample measurement time) When AUTO_OS is applied, this time is increased to: A + (B * FILTER_LEVEL*( 1 + AUTO_OS )) FILTER_LEVEL should be sufficiently large to ensure that AUTO_OS is only applied during the worstcase noise circumstances. Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 56 6.2.2. Narrowband Noise Counter Measures If the noise includes a frequency component which is related to the PTC capacitance measurement acquisition frequency, then no amount of oversampling will average out the noise effects. Any batch of measurement samples taken with the same sampling frequency will result in a measurement offset. The actual offset resulting from each measurement depends on the relative phase of the noise component and the sampling frequency. This effect is illustrated in the following diagram, where the noise is represented by a sine wave. STEP 4: SELECT FREQUENCY MODE Note:  Step1, Step2 and Step3 provided in the previous section should be used in combination with this step in a system which has both broadband noise and narrow band noise. Default settings provided before STEP1 should be used as a starting point before starting noise tuning. With FREQUENCY_MODE_NONE, a single acquisition frequency is used and samples are taken at the fastest rate possible with the given pre-scalar setting. This gives the best response time, and with sufficient oversampling excellent noise immunity at all noise frequencies which are not related to the sampling frequency. However in the case where the noise is at (or close to) a frequency which is harmonically related to the sampling frequency then the noise issue becomes severe, as illustrated above. This is particularly important in applications where a frequency sweep test is required, such as EN61000-4-6. FREQUENCY_MODE_SPREAD applies a modification to the sampling rate, such that the period between successivesamples is modified in a saw-tooth fashion to apply a wider spectrum to the sampling frequency. The sampling frequency F0 is thus spread across the range (F0/2, F0). With relatively low noise amplitude, this can be effective atimproving performance with minimal cost in response time. FREQUENCY_MODE_HOP utilizes 3 base frequencies and a median filter to avoid using measurements taken at anaffected frequency. The frequencies should be selected to minimize the set of crossover harmonics within the problemfrequency band. Each of the 3 frequencies is used in sequence for each measurement cycle.i.e. • Cycle 1: All sensors measured with Frequency 0 • Cycle 2: All sensors measured with Frequency 1 • Cycle 3: All sensors measured with Frequency 2 • Cycle 4: All sensors measured with Frequency 0 • Cycle 5: All sensors measured with Frequency 1 Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 57 If Frequency 0 is related to the noise frequency, then the measurements taken with F0 will show high variation. Using a median filter, this ensures that the outlying measurements will be rejected. In some applications, self-generated noise may be present which affects one or more of the default HOP frequencies. Insuch a case, the HOP frequencies should be changed to avoid this frequency. Some noise frequencies can occur which are close to harmonics of two of the HOP frequencies, in which case thesystem must be tuned with higher settings of FILTER_LEVEL or AUTO_OS to provide enough samples to average the noise out of the measurement. Determining PTC Acquisition Frequency The PTC acquisition frequency is given by the following formula, PTC Acquisition Frequency = (1/ PTC Acquisition Time) The PTC acquisition time is given by the following formula, PTC Acquisition Time = (Cycles per Acquisition + Hop Freq) * PTC IO Clock Period Where, Cycles per Acquisition = Number of PTC clock cycles required for each acquisition. This is a fixed value of 15. Hop Freq = PTC acquisition frequency delay setting This parameter is represented in the touch.h file by the symbols DEF_MUTLCAP_HOP_FREQS and DEF_SELFCAP_HOP_FREQS. The PTC acquisition frequency is dependent on the Generic clock input to PTC and PTC clock pre- scaler setting. This delay setting inserts n PTC clock cycles between consecutive measurements on a given sensor, thereby changing the PTC acquisition frequency. FREQ_HOP_SEL_1 setting inserts 0 PTC clock cycles between consecutive measurements. FREQ_HOP_SEL_16 setting inserts 15 PTC clock cycles. Hence, higher delay setting will increase the total time taken for capacitance measurement on a given sensor as compared to a lower delay setting.A desired setting can be used to avoid noise around the same frequency as the acquisition frequency. Range: FREQ_HOP_SEL_1 to FREQ_HOP_SEL_16 Three frequency hop delay settings need to be specified when assigning values to this parameter. Duration of each PTC clock period is given by the following formula, Where, CLKPTC = Generic clock input to the PTC Refer touch_configure_ptc_clock() API in touch.c file for clock configuration. Prescaler = PTC clock prescaler setting This parameter is represented in the touch.h file by the symbols DEF_MUTLCAP_CLK_PRESCALE_PER_NODE and DEF_SELFCAP_CLK_PRESCALE_PER_NODE. Example: If Generic clock input to PTC = 4MHz, then: • PRSC_DIV_SEL_1 sets PTC Clock to 4MHz • PRSC_DIV_SEL_2 sets PTC Clock to 2MHz • PRSC_DIV_SEL_4 sets PTC Clock to 1MHz • PRSC_DIV_SEL_8 sets PTC Clock to 500KHz Example: Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 58 When CLKPTC = 4MHz, Prescaler = PRSC_DIV_SEL_1, the PTC Acquisition Frequencies obtained are as follows, Hop Freq PTC Acquisition Frequency(kHz) FREQ_HOP_SEL_1 66.67 FREQ_HOP_SEL_2 62.50 FREQ_HOP_SEL_3 58.82 FREQ_HOP_SEL_4 55.56 FREQ_HOP_SEL_5 52.63 FREQ_HOP_SEL_6 50.00 FREQ_HOP_SEL_7 47.62 FREQ_HOP_SEL_8 45.45 FREQ_HOP_SEL_9 43.48 FREQ_HOP_SEL_10 41.67 FREQ_HOP_SEL_11 40.00 FREQ_HOP_SEL_12 38.46 FREQ_HOP_SEL_13 37.04 FREQ_HOP_SEL_14 35.71 FREQ_HOP_SEL_15 34.48 FREQ_HOP_SEL_16 33.33 Note:  The acquisition frequencies may vary based on the tolerance of the clock source.

Touch Library and Associated Files The table below provides the mandatory files required to use the QTouch library. In order to add QTouch functionality into an existing user example project, these files and associated library based on the compiler should be added to the user project. Table 7-1. Touch Library Files File Description touch_api_ptc.h QTouch Library API header file, contains API and Data structure used to interface with the library touch.h QTouch library configuration header file touch.c A helper file to demonstrate QTouch library initialization and sensor configuration libsamxxx_qtouch_iar.a or libsamxxx_qtouch_gcc.a QTouch library compiled for IAR or GCC compiler that supports both self-capacitance and mutual capacitance sensors. 7.2. Code and Data Memory Considerations The table below captures the typical code and data memory required for QTouch library. The typical memory requirements provided in the table are arrived considering only Regular API usage in the application. Usage of Helper API would consume additional code memory. Each measurement method requires additional data memory from the application for storing the signals, references, sensor configuration information, and touch status. This data memory is provided by the application as 'data block' array. The size of this data block depends on the number of sensors configured. The PRIV_xx_DATA_BLK_SIZE macro in touch_api_ptc.h calculates the size of this data memory block.

Using QDebug Touch Data Debug Communication Interface When using IAR and GCC example projects, QDebug touch data debug communication interface can be enabled. This allows the communication between the touch device and QTouch Analyzer. To enable or disable QDebug, configure DEF_TOUCH_QDEBUG_ENABLE in the touch.h file. When QDebug is enabled and touch debug data is being updated in the QTouch Analyzer, touch response time will be slower due to the debug communication data transfer which increases the delay in the response time.

PTC in Self-capacitance Mode The following errata is applicable for SAM D20 (Revision B) Description: The two lowest gain settings are not selectable and an attempt by the QTouch Library to set enable of these may result in a higher sensitivity than optimal for the sensor. The PTC will not detect all touches.This errata does not affect mutual capacitance mode which operates as specified. Fix/workaround: Use SAM D20 revision C or later for self-capacitance capacitive touch sensing. 2. Touch acquisition may fail and stop working The following errata is applicable for QTouch Library versions up to 5.0.7. This issue has been fixed in QTouch Library version 5.0.8 or later. Description: In QTouch applications, where either a single interrupt or a chain of nested non-PTC interrupts has duration longer than the total touch measurement time, the touch acquisition may fail and stop working. This issue occurs most likely in applications with few touch channels (2-3 channels) and a low level of noise handling (filter level 16 or lower and no frequency hopping). In an application with single touch channel and filter level 16, the total measurement time is ~350µs. The total measurement time doubles for two touch channels, and triples for 3 touch channels. It increases up to 10 times or 3.5ms with 10 touch channels. Fix/workaround: • Recommended workaround: – Use QTouch Library version 5.0.8 or later. • Other alternatives: 1. Always ensure that the duration of a single interrupt or a chain of nested non-PTC interrupts does not exceed the total touch measurement time. (or) 2. Add a critical section by disabling interrupts for the touch_xxxxcap_sensors_measure() function as shown in the following code snippet. Disable_global_interrupt(); touch_ret = touch_xxxxcap_sensors_measure( touch_time.current_time_ms, NORMAL_ACQ_MODE, touch_xxxxcap_measure_complete_callback); Enable_global_interrupt(); The Interrupt Blocking Time while executing touch_xxxxcap_sensors_measure API for various CPU frequencies are as follows. CPU Frequency (in MHz) Interrupt Blocking Time ( in μs ) 48 ~77 24 ~124 16 ~176 12 ~223 Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 71 The interrupt blocking time varies based on the PTC_GCLK frequency, CPU frequency, and the library version. The actual blocking time can be measured by toggling a GPIO pin before and after the touch_xxxxcap_sensors_measure function. When IAR compiler is used, utilize the system_interrupt_enable_global() and system_interrupt_disable_global() functions to enable and disable the global interrupts, respectively. In case of AVR, use cli() and sei() instructions to disable and enable the global interrupts.

FAQ on PTC Qtouch Table 10-1. Frequently Asked Questions Query Answer When can we change an acquisition, sensor configuration or global sensor parameter? After changing an acquisition parameter do we need to recalibrate or reinitialize the sensors and PTC? Its best to call the helper APIs to update these parameter when the measurement_done_touch flag (part of touch_measure_data_t structure) is true, which means the library is not in the middle of an (previously started) incomplete acquisition. Changing Gain and Filter level settings can affect the Signal value, so recalibration is mandatory by invoking the touch_sensors_calibrate() API. Can sensors be disabled and reenabled run time? For example, scan 2 sensors while sleeping and then scan all sensors when the system wakes up. Yes, this is possible using the touch_xxxcap_sensor_disable() and touch_xxxcap_sensor_reenable() API. There is a low amplitude pulse prior to the 16 acquisition samples and a large amplitude pulse after the 16 acquisition samples. These pulses are part of setting up the sense line's initial conditions. Is Detect integration calculated inside the PTC or by QTouch library? This is done by QTouch library. When Auto Oversampling is enabled how can one determine touch timing? The absolute maximum cycle, is the case that auto oversamples is applied to all channels: (Normal acquisition time) x (1 + auto_os). This can only happen with a poorly tuned system, as FILTER_LEVEL should be sufficient to prevent AUTO_OS happening except on a touched key under noisy conditions. Can sensor signal lines (Y or X lines) be used to drive LEDs, etc., when not being used for sensor acquisitions? No. This is not recommended Atmel QTouch Library Peripheral Touch Controller [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42195M-Peripheral-Touch-Controller_User Guide-07/2016 73 11. Appendix 11.1. Macros 11.1.1.

PTC Series Resistor Setting (tag_rsel_val_t) For mutual capacitance mode, this series resistor is switched internally on the Y-pin. For self-capacitance mode, the series resistor is switched internally on the sensor pin. Example: • RSEL_VAL_0 sets internal series resistor to 0 Ohms. • RSEL_VAL_20 sets internal series resistor to 20 Kohms. • RSEL_VAL_50 sets internal series resistor to 50 Kohms. • RSEL_VAL_100 sets internal series resistor to 100 Kohms.

FREQ_HOP_SEL_1 setting inserts 0 PTC clock cycle between consecutive measurements. FREQ_HOP_SEL_16 setting inserts 15 PTC clock cycles. Hence, higher delay setting will increase the total time required for capacitance measurement on a given sensor as compared to a lower delay setting. A desired setting avoids noise in the same frequency as the acquisition frequency.

You can now start editing your application. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 19 Figure 2-5. Code Editor Atmel Studio automatically opens the newly created C file in the source editor. If the file is closed at any time, double click on [Project_name].c - in this case GccApplication1.c - to open it in the editor. At this time the C file contains only an include statement for I/O manipulation and a simple main() function. Create and build a simple application 1. Replace the original main function with the following source code: #define MAXINT 200000 int main(void) { unsigned int t=1000, k=0, l=5, pn=2; unsigned int primes[t]; primes[0]=2; primes[1]=3; while (pn < t || primes[pn] < MAXINT) { for ( k = 0; k <= pn; k++) { if (l % primes[k] == 0) { goto otog; } else { if (k == pn) primes[pn++]=l; } } otog: l += 2; } Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 20 return 0; } 2. To compile the project, press F7 key or select Build Solution from the Build menu. Atmel Studio now builds the application. All output from the compiler is listed in the output window. This concludes the introduction to creating code projects in Atmel Studio. All aspects of projects are described in detail in Project Management. The next section will describe how to debug this application using the built-in simulator. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 21 3. Project Management 3.1. Introduction Atmel Studio is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for writing and debugging applications for AVR/ARM platforms. Currently as a code writing environment, it supports the included AVR Assembler and any external AVRGCC/ARMGCC compiler in a complete IDE environment. Using Atmel Studio as an IDE gives you several advantages: 1. Editing and debugging in the same application window allows for a faster error tracking. 2. Breakpoints are saved and restored between sessions, even if the code was edited in the meantime. 3. Project item management is made convenient and portable. 3.1.1. The Solution Container With AVR Studio 5, the concept of "solution" is introduced. The solution is a container that may contain several projects. A project cannot exist outside a solution. If you try to open a project file ( .cproj or .asmproj extension) a solution will be created for you. This allow you to keep for example a bootloader project, and several application projects in the same solution. In practice the Solution is stored as an .atsln file. In general, projects that are added to the solution are placed in a separate folder inside the folder that the .atsln file recides in. 3.1.2. Save and Open Projects All projects are saved under a chosen name with the .cproj extension for GCC projects and .asmproj extension for 8-bit assembler projects. The user can reopen a project, either from the file menu, from the recently used projects list, or from the Project menu, under Open project. 3.1.3. Project Output View After building, assembling, or compiling the project, the operation result will be shown in the build output window. If any errors occur, the user can double-click on the message, which will position the marker over the corresponding line in the source window. 3.1.4. Solution Explorer Solution Explorer allows you to view items and perform item management tasks in a solution or a project. It also allows you to use the Atmel Studio editors to work on files outside the context of a solution or project. By default it appears on the right side of the Atmel Studio GUI. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 22 Figure 3-1. The Solution Explorer Pane 3.1.5. Toolbar Icons Buttons specific to the item selected in the tree view appear on the Solution Explorer. • Displays the appropriate property user interface for the selected item in the tree view. • Shows all project items, including those that have been excluded in the project and those that are hidden. 3.1.6. Hierarchical Display A single solution and all its projects appear in a hierarchical display. This allows you to work on several projects at the same time and at the same time keep track of all projects and items. Most source control system extensions (such as AnkhSVN) will also add icon overlays to the item icons, to signal the up-todate status of the project items that are under revision control. 3.1.7. Item Management Commands Solution Explorer supports a variety of management commands for each project or solution item. Right click on any item to get a menu with the available commands for that particular item. 3.1.8. Project Components A project will contain a set of device specific components. This includes startup code, linker scripts, and other support libraries. Components are small pieces of code or other supporting files that are included in any project. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 23 Figure 3-2. Project Components Components that are included in a project are listed in the Component drop-down. Selecting a component from the drop-down menu shows the component version, the files that the component is contributing with, and the dependencies that the component has. The version of the component can be changed by clicking the Change version button. 3.1.8.1. Change Version Components are versioned when added to the project. To change the version that is used, use this dialog. There are two options when choosing the version of a component Use a specific version Lock the project to a specific version of the component. Use the latest version Choose the most recent version of the component that is available. Figure 3-3. Change Version Components are part of the device packs in Atmel Studio. These device packs are managed using the Device Pack Manager. Related Links Device Pack Manager on page 146 Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 24 3.2. GCC Projects 3.2.1. New Project Wizard Select File → New from the menu, and the dialog below will appear. The startup wizard will also have an option to start a new project. Figure 3-4. New Project Project types Currently several project types are available in the Project Type box. AVR board examples - to guide you through the usage of the AVR boards, User board project - if you have created your own product with the AVR tools, and a general AVR GCC project - a board independent project with a GNU compiler. It is also possible to create an AVR Assembler project and a general AVR Solution, which may include any supported source code type. Tip:  Projects can also be created by loading supported object files. If you want to create such a project, you should use the File → Open file menu. Project name and initial file Input the project name. The project main file, which is generated automatically, will be named with the same name by default (ASM or C). If you wish, you can change this name. It is possible to check a box to create a new folder, bearing the project name. This box is unchecked by default. You can choose to create a new solution in the Solution drop-down menu, or to reuse existing code. Input the solution name in the Solution Name field. If you are satisfied with the project name and type, press OK and proceed to the debugging platform selection stage. You can also leave the platform undefined for now, but then the you will have to select the debug platform and device upon starting a debug session. See also Assembler Projects, Object File Formats 3.2.2. Starting a New GCC Project for AVR Device 1. Create a new project by selecting New Project from the Project menu. This will open the Project Wizard. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 25 2. Select C/C++→GCC C Executable Project as a template, then specify a project name, select a location, and write a solution name for the project. A file with the same name as the project will be created and added to the project by default. It will contain an empty main() function. If you want to change the name of the initial file, just edit the main file name afterward. Press OK when you are satisfied with the settings. 3. Select C/C++→GCC C Static Library Project as a template, then specify a project name, select a location, and write a solution name for the project. This creates a Static Library (LIB) project, which is a good way to reuse code. Tip:  See section Starting a New GCC Static Library Project to learn more about Static Library projects. 4. A device selection table will appear. Choose the appropriate target platform for your project. To start you can select the ATxmega128A1 device.

Create a new project by selecting New Project from the Project menu. This will open the Project Wizard. 2. Select C/C++ → GCC C Executable Project as a template, then specify a project name, select a location, and write a solution name for the project. Some start-up files will be added to the project by default, which will contain some device specific functions and libraries. Press OK when you are satisfied with the settings. 3. Select C/C++ → GCC C Static Library Project as a template, then specify a project name, select a location, and write a solution name for the project. This creates a Static Library (LIB) project, which is a good way to reuse code. Tip:  See section Static Library Project to learn more about Static Library projects. 4. A device selection table will appear. Choose the device family as SAM3 or SAM4 and select the target platform for your project. To start you can select the ATSAM3S1A device. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 33 5. The project tree will be set up. Notice that the initial files created in step 2 has been added to the project node. Also, the file containing main() function will be opened in the editor. Here is a list of files that will be created: – A file with the same name as the project will be created and added to the project by default. It will contain the main() function. – A startup file(startup_*.c) will be available at "cmsis\src" directory. It contains the default interrupt handlers for all the peripherals. – A system file(system_*.c) available at "cmsis\src" provides the system level initialization functions that are called on start-up – Linker scripts with appropriate sections based on the device will be created at "cmsis \LinkerScripts" directory in the project folder – In case if you have deleted any files in cmsis folder and want to revert it back or if you have changed the device, just right click the Project and click "CMSIS Update from Atmel" to get the appropriate files. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 34 Note:  It is recommended not to change the contents of the startup_*.c and system_*.c files unless you have no other choice. These startup, system, and linker scripts will not be created for ARM static library projects. 6. In order to facilitate applications development and verification you can also use the Driver Selection Wizard, invoked from Project → ASF Wizard. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 35 In the ASF Wizard you can select which Drivers, Components, and Services you would like to use in the project for current build architecture and board. 7. Now, write the following code into the open editor window: #define MAXINT 200000 int main(void) { unsigned int t=1000, k=0, l=5, pn=2; unsigned int primes[t]; primes[0]=2; primes[1]=3; while (pn < t || primes[pn] < MAXINT) { for ( k = 0; k <= pn; k++) { if (l % primes[k] == 0) { goto otog; } else { if (k == pn) primes[pn++]=l; } } otog: l += 2; } return 0; } 8. Build the project. 3.2.5. Code Editing For the following part of the introduction we will reuse the same code as you have previously seen. #define MAXINT 200000 int main(void) { unsigned int t=1000, k=0, l=5, pn=2; unsigned int primes[t]; primes[0]=2; primes[1]=3; while (pn < t || primes[pn] < MAXINT) { for ( k = 0; k <= pn; k++) { if (l % primes[k] == 0) { goto otog; } else { if (k == pn) primes[pn++]=l; } } otog: l += 2; } return 0; } Atmel Studio has a rich editor that is made even richer by Atmel and third-party plugins. Atmel Studio has an automatic code generation faculty for snippets of C source code. To use it select and right click the part of the code you wish to enclose in a conditional structure (like for,while,if … etc). Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 36 Using the code snippets you can add parts to your core source. In some snippets the variable names and exit conditions are parametric within the IDE, so as if only one instance is changed all instances within the snippet will also change, such is the case of for loop. Table 3-1. Using "Surround With" ⇒ ⇒ 3.2.6. Starting a New GCC Static Library Project 3.2.6.1. Why Static Libraries Static Libraries (LIB) is a good way to reuse code. Rather than re-creating the same routines/functions in all the programs, the user can write them once and reference from the applications that need the functionality. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 37 3.2.6.2. Create New Static Library Project Figure 3-12. New Static Library Project Click OK to create the Static Library project. A default source file with the same name as the project will be added to the solution. You may then write and compile your routines/functions. You can also add new source files or header files into the project. Open the Project Properties on the menu Project → "Your_project_name Properties". This menu item is only available when a Static Library project is open. Select the Build property page. Here you will see that the Artifact Type is selected as Static Library. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 38 Figure 3-13. Static Library Build Properties Compile the project by selecting Build Solution from the Build menu. This creates a Static Library, which can be used by other programs. 3.2.6.3. Static Library Project Options (AVR/GNU Archiver) The AVR/GNU archiver, avr-ar, combines a collection of object files into a single archive file, also known as a library. Open the Project Properties on the menu Project → "Your_project_name Properties". This menu item is only available when a Static Library project is open. In order to configure Static Library options, click on the Toolchain property tab. In the Toolchain property page, you will see AVR/GNU Archiver active and enabled. You may also see that the AVR/GNU Linker is disabled for a static library project. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 39 Figure 3-14. AVR/GNU Archiver Setup Dialog, Command Line Shown You can set the AVR/GNU Archiver flags at the Archiver Flags textbox in the above General options. Now, save the project and compile by selecting Build Solution from the Build menu. 3.2.7. GCC Project Options and Configuration Project options and configuration can be set up by either right clicking on the Solution Explorer → Project Properties, or by pressing Alt Enter . This will call up the Project properties window, it has seven tabs: If a tab supports properties that are configuration specific, then the tab has two slide-down menus: The Configuration field defines the project configurations to modify. By default, two configurations are provided in each project - Debug and Release. The Platform field is set to AVR. If a tab supports configuration independent properties, then the Configuration and Platform fields are disabled. Note:  Use the "Save All ( Ctrl Shift S )" from the File menu or toolbar to update the changes in the project file whenever changes are made.

Tool Options This tab allows you to select and change the debugger platform for the current project. Tip:  Click on the Device button on the Device and Debugger toolbar to get to this tab quickly while editing. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 49 Select tool/debugger from the drop-down list. Current selection is shown. Select Interface from the drop-down list. Current selection is shown. Note:  Only tools and interfaces valid for the current device selection are shown. Further Properties are dependent on tool and interface selected. JTAG If you have selected JTAG as the programming interface, clock speed, use external reset - and daisy chain setting may be available. This depends on the tool and device. JTAG clock JTAG clock is the maximum speed the tool will try to clock the device at. The clock range is different for different tools and devices. If there are restrictions, they will be stated in a message below the clock slider. Clock can be set to Manual (all tools), Auto (SAM-ICE only), or Adaptive (SAM-ICE only). Use external reset If checked, the tool will pull the external reset line low when trying to connect to the device. JTAG daisy chain settings Specify the JTAG daisy chain settings relevant to the device to program. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 50 Target is not part of a daisy chain. Select this option when the target device is not part of a daisy chain. Daisy chain - Manual. Allows you to manually configure the JTAG daisy chain in case you are programming in a system-on-board. • Devices before - specifies the number of devices preceding the target device. • Instruction bits before - specifies the total size of the instruction registers of all devices, preceding the target device. • Devices after - specifies the number of devices following the target device. • Instruction bits after - specifies the total size of the instruction registers of all devices, following the target device. Daisy chain-Auto. Automatically detects the devices in the JTAG daisy chain. Allows you to select the device in the JTAG daisy chain. Auto-detection is supported only for SAM devices. PDI The PDI interface has only one setting – the PDI clock speed. PDI Clock is the maximum speed the tool will try to clock the device at. The clock range is different for different tools and devices. If there are restrictions, they will be stated in a message below the clock slider. The clock can not be adjusted on all tools, so an empty Interface settings page will be presented. Programming and debug settings In the drop-down menu it is possible to specify which parts of memory that should be erased during a programming/debug cycle. • Skip programming - specifies that no programming should occur. The tool will try to attach to the program already in memory. • Erase only program area - specifies that only the program area of memory should be erased. • Erase entire chip - specifies that the entire chip is to be erased. The "Preserve Eeprom" option lets you decide whether EEPROM data should be written when launching a debug session. When this checkbox is checked, EEPROM data in the object file will be written to the device at the start of each debug session. The EESAVE fuse will be set and cleared accordingly. When a device is programmed at the start of a debug session, the default behavior is to erase the content of the device (chip erase, if available). This can be changed by selecting a different option from the drop down box under "Programming settings". Keep timers running in stop mode Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 51 When checked, the timers set in the program will continue to run even when the program breaks at breakpoint or is halted This setting is only enabled for certain tool/interfaces. Override Vector Table Offset Register At reset, load PC and SP from the specified address. Note:  The tool you select on this page is also used with the command Start without Debugging. That is why you also can select tools that do not have debugging capabilities. See Start without Debugging for more information. 3.2.7.6. Advanced Options Setting ToolchainFlavour This section allows you to set the flavour of the toolchain for the current project. Default flavour of the respective toolchain is selected. The toolchain path configured in the flavour is used for building the projects. For configuring and adding new flavours Toolchain. Use GDB This section allows you to select whether GDB has to be used for the current project. The Current GDB Path will be computed by the following 1. The Current GDB Path is taken from 'Tools → Options → Debugger → GDB Settings if configured GDB Settings. 2. Otherwise it is taken from selected Toolchain Flavor if GDB is found there. The Current GDB Path will be overridden when we use the option "Override Current GDB Path" in the "Advanced" project property page. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 52 Note:  The option "Use GDB" is enabled by default for ARM based devices and also the following warning will be shown for AVR 32-bit devices if GDB is enabled. 3.2.7.7. Creating ELF Files with Other Memory Types ELF files that contains data for all memory types can be made with the GCC compiler. The data sections are specified in code as shown in following code examples. Creating ELF Files for tinyAVR, megaAVR, and XMEGA devices This code shows how to add memory sections for tinyAVR, megaAVR, and XMEGA devices (except ATtiny4/5/9/10) . This example is for an ATxmega128A1 device. For other devices, it has to be modified accordingly. #include // Example data for ATxmega128A1 const char eeprdata[] __attribute__ ((section (".eeprom"))) = "Hello EEPROM"; // The order of the fuse values is from low to high. 0xA2 is written to Fuse byte 0, 0x00 to byte 1... const uint8_t fusedata[] __attribute__ ((section (".fuse"))) = {0xA2, 0x00, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xF5}; Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 53 const uint8_t lockbits[] __attribute__ ((section (".lockbits"))) = {0xFC}; const char userdata[] __attribute__ ((section (".user_signatures"))) = "Hello User Signatures"; // Remember to set the following Toolchain project options, // under AVR/GNU -> Miscellaneous: // // -Wl,--section-start,.user_signatures=0x00850000 int main(void) { while(1) { // TODO:: Please write your application code } } Linker setup for User Signature section The User Signatures section must have a specific Linker Setup, as shown below. This is necessary to get the correct address offset for the user signature section in the elf file. Other memory sections gets the correct address automatically. Figure 3-19. Linker Setup for User Signature Section Creating ELF Files for ATtiny4/5/9/10 This code shows how to add memory sections for ATtiny10. #include typedef struct _tagConfig { unsigned char f1; } Config; typedef struct _tagLock { unsigned char f1; } Lock; Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 54 typedef struct _tagSig { unsigned char f1; unsigned char f2; unsigned char f3; } Signature; Config __config __attribute__((section(".config"))) = { f1 : 0xfb, // Set CKOUT }; Lock __lock __attribute__((section(".lock"))) = { f1 : 0xfc, // Further programming and verification disabled }; Signature __sig __attribute__((section(".signature"))) = { f1 : 0x03, f2 : 0x90, f3 : 0x1e, }; int main(void) { while(1) { // TODO:: Write your application code } } Creating ELF Files for UC3 The example below shows how to add data for the user page in UC3 devices. #include const char userdata[] __attribute__((section(".userpage"))) = "Hello Page"; int main(void) { while(1) { //TODO:: Write your application code } } Project Properties If the memory sections are defined but not referenced in the application code, the "Garbage collect unused sections" option in Project Properties → Linker → Optimization must be unchecked. Otherwise the linker will not include the sections in the .elf file.

By default Debug is the initial stage and initially active configuration. Following options are available: 1. Debug. 2. Release. 3. All configurations. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 61 Platform menu shows compatible target platforms available for prototyping. Hex Output format The following file formats can be selected as additional output format: 1. Intel Hex. 2. Generic Hex. 3. Motorola Hex (S-record). Wrap relative jumps The AVR RJMP/RCALL instructions allow a 12-bit PC-relative offset, corresponding to ±2k words. For devices having 4k words (8kB) or less FLASH program memory, the Wrap option causes the assembler's offset calculation to wrap around over the addressable program memory range, enabling the entire program memory to be addressed using these instructions. For devices with more than 4k words of program memory, using this option may cause unpredictable results and it should be turned OFF. If it is left ON, the assembler will produce a warning when wrap takes effect: Attention:  Wrap rjmp/rcall illegal for device > 4k words - Turn off wrap option and use jmp/call. This diagnostic is given as a warning and not an error to retain compatibility with earlier versions of the assembler, but should be treated as an error by the user. The JMP/CALL 2-word instructions take 22-bit absolute addresses and should be used instead. Unsupported Instructions. By default, this option is set to give a warning when the assembler finds unsupported instructions for the actual device. Optionally, you can output an error. Include Paths (-I). Additional include paths can be set here, when using third party modules or your own IP. Assembler's default include path:\Atmel\AVR Tools\AvrAssembler2\Appnotes. Other optimization flags can be set to tailor optimization to your specific needs, see Assembler help for more information. 3.4. Import of Projects 3.4.1.

Debug Object File in Atmel Studio 3.5.1. Introduction Debug session requires you to load an object file which is supported by Atmel Studio. The debug file contains symbolic information for debugging. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 71 3.5.2. Atmel Studio Supported Debug Formats Table 3-8. Object File Formats Supported by Atmel Studio Object file format Extension Description UBROF .d90 UBROF is an IAR proprietary format. The debug output file contains a complete set of debug information and symbols to support all type of watches. UBROF8 and earlier versions are supported. This is the default output format of IAR EW 2.29 and earlier versions. See below how to force IAR EW 3.10 and later versions to generate UBROF8. ELF/DWARF .elf ELF/DWARF debug information is an open standard. The debug format supports a complete set of debug information and symbols to support all type of watches. The version of the format read by Atmel Studio is DWARF2. AVR-GCC versions configured for DWARF2 output can generate this format. AVRCOFF .cof COFF is an open standard intended for 3rd party vendors creating extensions or tools supported by the Atmel Studio. AVR Assembler format .obj The AVR assembler output file format contains source file info for source stepping. It is an Atmel internal format only. The .map file are automatically parsed to get some watch information. Before debugging, make sure you have set up your compiler/assembler to generate a debug file like one of the formats above. 3rd party compiler vendors should output the ELF/DWARF object file format. 3.5.3. Opening Object Debug File in Atmel Studio Steps to create an Object Project • On the File menu, click Open, and then click Open Object File For Debugging. Open Object File For Debugging wizard will appear. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 72 • – In the Select the object file to debug, select your object file to debug. The object file must be supported by Atmel Studio. – In the Project Name, type a name for the project. Atmel Studio will suggest a name, which you can override if wanted. – In the Location, select a save location. Atmel Studio will suggest a name, which you can override if wanted. – Maintain Folder Hierarchy for Source Files option is selected by default which would create a similar folder structure in the Solution Explorer as that of the source project i.e. the project used to create the object file. Otherwise, all the files are added to the root folder of the project file i.e. the user would not see any folder in the Solution explorer. – Add File As Link option is selected by default in which the object project shall refer the files from its original location without a local copy into the project directory. If the option is not selected, Atmel Studio would copy the files into the object project directory. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 73 • Click Next. The Device Selection dialog will appear. – Choose the appropriate target device. The target device should be the same, which was originally chosen to create the object file. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 74 • Click Finish. The object project files re-mapper appears. In this particular dialog you need to remap your original files of the project using, which the elf projects was created. If files are present at their original place, it will show remapped already in dialog. If files are missing, you will have to remap it manually. Check the screen shot below. If the user resolves the parent folder for any original file, all other files in subsequent directory will be remapped recursively. So, it is useful for the user to remap the number of files by just remapping only one. • Now the Object Project is Created. The files that are not remapped properly are shown in solution explorer like "libgcc.S", with warning sign . Press F5 to debug this Project. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 75 Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 76 4. Debugging 4.1. Introduction Atmel Studio can be targeted towards the built-in Simulator, or a variety of tools (see Available Tools View), for example AVR ONE!, JTAGICE mkII or JTAGICE3 (bought separately). 4.1.1. Debug Platform Independent Debug Environment Independent of which debug platform is running, the Atmel Studio environment will appear identical. When switching between debug platforms, all environment options are kept for the new platform. Some platforms have unique features, and new functionality/windows will appear. 4.1.2. Differences Between Platforms Although all debug platforms appear identical in the debug environment there will be small differences between them. A real-time emulator will be significantly faster than the simulator for large projects. An emulator will also allow debugging while the system is connected to the actual hardware environment, while the simulator only allow predefined stimulus to be applied. In the simulator, all registers are always potentially available for display, which might not be the case with an emulator. 4.2. Starting a Debug Session To start a debug session and halt, press Alt+F5 or choose Debug → Start Debugging and Break from the menu, alternatively, press the toolbar button as illustrated below: Figure 4-1. Starting a Debug Session To start a debug session and keep executing, press F5 or press the toolbar button with the continue symbol, or choose Debug → Continue from the menu as illustrated below: Figure 4-2. Starting a Debug Session 4.3. Ending a Debug Session To end the debug session use the Stop Debugging button or keyboard shortcut Shift F5 . Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 77 4.4. Attaching to a Target To attach a target, use the Attach to Target option in the Debug menu, or the attach icon in the debug toolbar. This causes Atmel Studio to launch a debug session on the selected target without uploading a new application or causing a reset. Once the debug session is established, the core of the target is halted and the current execution position of the target is mapped to the code in the project. This means that the state of the target is kept and is inspect-able with normal debug techniques, and the program halts in the current position. Full run control and symbolic debugging should be available after a successful attach. Note:  • The code in the project is mapped to the content of the running target, without any possibility to verify the correctness of this mapping. This means that if the project contains code that is not on the target, then the state and run control might not reflect the truth, as variables and functions might have different code locations on the target than in the project. • The ability to activate a debug session without resetting a target is architecture dependent. Not all architectures supports this feature. Attention:  Physically connecting a debug probe to a target might cause the target to reset, as most debug probes needs an electrical connection to the reset line of the device. Normal electrical precautions needs to be taken to avoid this. 4.5. Start without Debugging 4.5.1. One Click Programming - Program and Run The Start without Debugging command is a one-click alternative to the programming dialog. Execute it by selecting Debug → Start without Debugging from the menu, or press the button on the toolbar. Figure 4-3. Start without Debugging This will build the solution (if any changes are made) and program the target device without starting a debug session. Start without Debugging uses the tool and interface settings specified in the project options. This is different from what takes place when using the stand-alone Programming Dialog, which is not related to the project at all. Note:  Programmers and starter kits can also be used with the Start without Debugging command, not only debuggers. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 78 The Start without Debugging command will also program the EEPROM, fuses, lockbits, and user signature (XMEGA only) segments if they are present in the object file. The GCC compiler can generate ELF object format files with such segments. See Creating ELF Files with Other Memory Types for more information. Note:  The user signature is not erased by Start without Debugging. The programmed user signature from the ELF file will be AND-ed with the content in the device. If you want to replace the signatures with what is in the file, you must perform a user signature erase manually. 4.5.2. Keyboard Shortcut By default, there is no keyboard shortcut to this function, but you might want to add one if you use it a lot. To add one, simply click the Tools → Options menu button and go to Environment → Keyboard. Start typing startwithouttdebugging in the Show commands containing input field, and select Debug.StartWithoutDebugging in the list. Then select the Press shortcut keys input field, and press the desired key combination. You can for example press Ctrl+F5. Note that this shortcut is already assigned to the BreakAll command. If you choose to override it, press the Assign button to assign the new keyboard shortcut. Or, you can select an unused key combination. Figure 4-4. Add Keyboard Shortcut 4.6. Debug Control Several commands are available for controlling the debugger. They are available from both the Debug menu and several toolbars. The Atmel Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE) has two major operating modes; design mode and debug mode. Design mode is when you are editing the source code project, while debug mode is when you debug your project. The IDE adapts to modes, and menus an toolbars changes. Note:  Some debug commands are available in design mode, some in debug mode. • In design mode, the available debug commands are those that will start the debug session, e.g. Start Debugging and Break, Start Debugging, Start without Debugging. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 79 • In debug mode, you will find commands like Break All, Step Out, and Reset. Start Debugging and Break Starts the debugger, and breaks the execution on the first statement of the program. Start Debugging Starts the debugger, and runs the program. In debug mode and stopped, it resumes execution. Start Without Debugging Programs the project without starting debugging. For details, see Start without Debugging. Break All Halts the debugger. Stop Debugging Stops and terminates the debug session, and returns to design mode. Restart Restarts the debugger and reloads the program. Reset Resets the program to the first statement. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 80 Disable debugWire and Close Available when debugging a device using the debugWire interface. The command disables the debugWire interface (enabling the use of the ISP interface) and terminates the debug session. Step Into Executes one instruction. When in disassembly level, one assembly level instruction is executed, otherwise one source level instruction is executed. Step Over Similar to Step Into, Step Over executes one instruction. However, if the instruction contains a function call/subroutine call, the function/subroutine is executed as well. If a user breakpoint is encountered during Step Over, execution is halted. Step Out Continue execution until the current function has completed. If a user breakpoint is encountered during Step Over, execution is halted. If a Step Out command is issued when the program is on the top level, the program will continue executing until it reaches a breakpoint or it is stopped by the user. Quick Watch Adds a Quick Watch for the variable or expression under the cursor. For details, see QuickWatch and Watches. Toggle Breakpoint Toggle the breakpoint status for the instruction where the cursor is placed. Note that this function is only available when the source window or disassembly window is the active view. New Breakpoint Create a new breakpoint at the location of the cursor. For more information, see Breakpoints. Disable All Breakpoints This function clears all set program breakpoints, including breakpoints which have been disabled. Clear All DataTips Clear all marked Data Tips. For more information, see DataTips. Export Data Tips Save all marked Data Tips to a file in Visual Studio Shell format. Import DataTips Load Data Tips from a Visual Studio Shell file. Options and Settings Debug options and settings, see Debugger. 4.7. Breakpoints 4.7.1. General Information on Breakpoints A breakpoint tells the debugger to temporarily suspend execution of a program when a specific condition takes place, e.g. when a certain instruction is about to be executed. Breakpoints provide a powerful tool that enables you to suspend execution where and when you need to. Rather than stepping through your code line by line or instruction by instruction, you can allow your program to run until it hits a breakpoint, and then start to debug. This speeds up the debugging process. 4.7.1.1. Breakpoint Glyphs The source windows and the isassembly window show breakpoint locations by displaying symbols called glyphs in the left margin. The following table describes these glyphs. If you rest the mouse on a breakpoint glyph, a breakpoint tip appears with more information. This information is especially useful for error and warning breakpoints. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 81 Table 4-1. Breakpoint Glyphs Glyph Description Normal breakpoint. The solid glyph indicates that the breakpoint is enabled. The hollow glyph indicates that it is disabled. Advanced breakpoint. Active/disabled. The + sign indicates that the breakpoint has at least one advanced feature (such as condition, hit count, or filter) attached to it. Breakpoint error. The X indicates that the breakpoint could not be set because of an error condition. Breakpoint warning. The exclamation mark indicates that a breakpoint could not be set because of a temporary condition. Usually, this means that the code at the breakpoint or tracepoint location has not been loaded. It can also be seen if you attach to a process and the symbols for that process are not loaded. When the code or symbols are loaded, the breakpoint will be enabled and the glyph will change. 4.7.2. Operations with Breakpoints 4.7.2.1. To Set a Breakpoint 1. In a source window, click a line of executable code where you want to set a breakpoint. On the right-click menu, click Breakpoint, and then click Insert Breakpoint. —or— In a source window, click a line of executable code where you want to set a breakpoint. On the Debug menu, click Toggle Breakpoint. 4.7.2.2. To Set an Address Breakpoint 1. On the Debug menu, point to Windows, and then click Disassembly if the Disassembly window is not already visible. You need to be in a debug session for this option to be visible. 2. In the Disassembly window, click a line of code, and then click Toggle Breakpoint on the Debug menu. —or— Right-click a line of code, and then select Insert Breakpoint . 4.7.2.3.

Note:  In a source window, you might have to right-click the exact character where the breakpoint is set. This is necessary if the breakpoint is set on a specific character within a line of source code. 4.7.2.4. Hit Count Keeps Track of How Many Times a Breakpoint is Hit By default, execution breaks every time that a breakpoint is hit. You can choose to: Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 82 • Break always (the default) • Break when the hit count equals a specified value • Break when the hit count equals a multiple of a specified value • Break when the hit count is greater than or equal to a specified value If you want to keep track of the number of times a breakpoint is hit but never break execution, you can set the hit count to a very high value so that the breakpoint is never hit. The specified hit count is retained only for the debugging session. When the debugging session ends, the hit count is reset to zero. 4.7.2.5. To Specify a Hit Count 1. In the Breakpoints window, right-click a breakpoint, and then click Hit Count on the right-click menu. —or— In a source, Disassembly, or Call Stack window, right-click a line that contains a breakpoint, and then click Hit Count from the Breakpoints sub menu on the right-click menu. 2.

To View all Breakpoints after a Search In the Search box, select and delete the search string and then press ENTER. 4.7.3.9. Breakpoint Labels In Atmel Studio, you can use labels to help keep track of your breakpoints. A label is a name that you can attach to a breakpoint or a group of breakpoints. You can create a name for a label or you can choose from among a list of existing labels. You can attach multiple labels to each breakpoint. Labels are useful when you want to mark a group of breakpoints that are related in some way. After you have labeled the breakpoints, you can use the search function in the Breakpoints window to find all breakpoints that have a specified label. The search function searches all columns of information that are visible in the Breakpoints window. To make your labels easy to search for, avoid using label names that might conflict with strings that appear in another column. For example, if you have a source file that is named "Program.c", "Program.c" will appear in the name of any breakpoint set in that file. If you use "Prog" as a label name, all breakpoints set in Program.c will appear when you search for breakpoints labeled "Prog". 4.7.3.10. To Label Breakpoints 1. In the Breakpoints window, select one or more breakpoints. 2. To select multiple breakpoints, use the Ctrl key when selecting breakpoints. 3.

In the Breakpoints window, right-click the breakpoint list. 2. Point to Sort by and then click Label. (Optional) To change the sort order, right-click the breakpoint list again, point to Sort by, and then click Sort Ascending or Sort Descending. 4.8. Data Breakpoints Data breakpoints allow you to break execution when the value stored at a specified memory location is accessed (read/write). In general, Data Breakpoint hardware module listens on the data address and data value lines between the CPU and the data cache and can halt the CPU, if the address and/or value meets a stored compare value. Unlike program breakpoints, data breakpoints halt on the next instruction after the load/store instruction that caused the breakpoint has completed. 4.8.1. Adding Data Breakpoint Adding Data Breakpoint using code editor context menu You can add Data breakpoint from code editor. Select the variable in code editor and select Breakpoint → Add Databreakpoint from context menu. This adds data breakpoint for a given variable address. Default access mode is write and default mask is none. You can invoke the same command using short cut key Ctrl + Shift + R . Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 86 Figure 4-6. Adding Data Breakpoint from the Context Menu Adding Data Breakpoint from Debug menu You can add new Data breakpoint from Debug → New Breakpoint → New Data Breakpoint. This opens the Data Breakpoint Configuration window. Adding Data Breakpoint from Data Breakpoints tool window You can add new Data breakpoint using the New button in Data Breakpoints tool window. This opens the Data Breakpoint Configuration window. Note:  You can add or modify Data breakpoint only in debug mode. 4.8.2. Data Breakpoints Window 4.8.2.1. Data Breakpoints Tool Window The Data Breakpoint window provides the options to set data breakpoint and lists the added data breakpoints. Enable this window by choosing Debug → Windows → Data Breakpoints. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 87 Figure 4-7. Data Breakpoint Window Data Breakpoints toolbar has following elements: • - provides the data breakpoint configuration window to add a new data breakpoint. • - provides the data breakpoint configuration window to edit the selected data breakpoint. • - removes the selected data breakpoint. You can invoke the same command using the Delete key. • - removes the all data breakpoints. • - enable or disable all the data breakpoints. Data Breakpoints window displays several columns related to breakpoint configuration. Some of the columns are dynamically hidden based on the breakpoints configuration. E.g.: if none of the breakpoints has Mask configured, then Mask related columns are not displayed. Name column has three parts: • Check box - Use Check box to enable or disable breakpoint. • Icon - Glyph to represent the current state of the breakpoint. The following table describes these glyphs. If you rest the mouse on a breakpoint glyph, a breakpoint tip appears with more information. This information is especially useful for error and warning breakpoints. • Text - Displays the configured location expression for breakpoint. Table 4-2. Breakpoint Icons Icon Description Normal breakpoint. The solid glyph indicates that the breakpoint is enabled. The hollow glyph indicates that it is disabled. Advanced breakpoint. Active/disabled. The + sign indicates that the breakpoint has hit count attached to it. Tracepoint. Active/disabled. Hitting this point performs a specified action but doesn't break program execution. Advanced tracepoint. Active/disabled. The + sign indicates that the tracepoint has hit count attached to it. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 88 Icon Description Breakpoint or tracepoint error. The X indicates that the breakpoint or tracepoint couldn't be set because of an error condition. Check Message column for more details on error message. Breakpoint or tracepoint is set but with warning. Check Message column for more details on warning message. 4.8.2.2. Data Breakpoint Configuration Window for Mega This window provides configuration options related to data breakpoint for ATmega devices. Address mask is optional. Location You can enter a specific address in RAM (e.g.: 0x8004) directly or an expression that evaluates to an address in RAM (e.g.: &x). Make sure the expression you enter represents the address of the data to monitor. Note:  Data breakpoints on local variables can result in false hits due to reuse of stack memory. Suggestion to declare it as static for debugging purpose. Access Mode You can configure the breakpoint to break on specific Access Mode. Three types of access modes are supported. • Read - Program breaks on read at specified location. • Write (Default) - Program breaks on write at specified location. • Read/Write - Program breaks on read or write at specified location. Address Mask Address Mask on Mega Data Breakpoints is optional. Use address mask to break on more than one address or a range of address on particular access. Mask Mask value to mask the Location address to define more than one address or range of address. Bits with value 1 in the mask are significant bits and 0 are don't care bits. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 89 In general for a given address A and mask M, an address B successfully matches when: (A) & (M) == (B) & (M), where A is resolved address for the expression entered in Location, M is mask value entered in Mask and B is any address in RAM. Masked Address This is a read only field which shows the range of matching addresses on which program can break. The masked address is shown in the binary format for simplicity. 'X' represents don't care bits, remaining bits are expected to match. E.g. 0b000000010XX000XX means it can break as per access mode, at addresses which has all bits as per this string except X bits. In this case 0th, 1st, 5th, and 6th bit (lsb) can be anything since these bits are don't care (X). Note:  ATmega devices don't support Data Masks. 4.8.2.3. Data Breakpoint Configuration Window for XMEGA This window provides configuration options related to data breakpoint for XMEGA devices. Location You can enter a specific address in RAM (e.g.: 0x8004) directly or an expression that evaluates to an address in RAM (e.g.: &x). Make sure the expression you enter represents the address of the data to monitor. Note:  Data breakpoints on local variables can result in false hits due to reuse of stack memory. Suggestion to declare it as static for debugging purpose. Access Mode You can configure the breakpoint to break on specific Access Mode. Three types of access modes are supported. • Read - Program breaks on read at specified location. • Write (Default) - Program breaks on write at specified location. • Read/Write - Program breaks on read or write at specified location. Data Match Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 90 Use the Data Match option to configure Data Breakpoint to compare the data at specified location based on one of the following conditions: • Location content is equal to the value • Location content is greater than the value • Location content is less than or equal to the value • Location content is within the range • Location content is outside the range • Bits of the location is equal to the value Note:  Bit Mask: It is an 8-bit value where bits with '1' are significant and the bits with '0' are don't care. In general for a given value V and bit mask M, the break event is triggered when the value in the location field VL satisfies the condition (V) & (M) == (VL) & (M) For example, using Value = 0xA0 and Bit Mask = 0xF0 will trigger a break event when the location field has any of the values between0xA0 to 0xAF. Note:  Condition Value field has to be of 1 byte. 4.8.2.4. Data Breakpoint Configuration Window for UC3 This window provides configuration options related to data breakpoint for UC3 devices. Location You can enter a specific address in RAM (e.g.: 0x8004) directly or an expression that evaluates to an address in RAM (e.g.: &x). Make sure the expression you enter represents the address of the data to monitor. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 91 Note:  Data breakpoints on local variables can result in false hits due to reuse of stack memory. Suggestion to declare it as static for debugging purpose. Access Mode You can configure the breakpoint to break on specific Access Mode. Three types of access modes are supported. • Read - Program breaks on read at specified location. • Write (Default) - Program breaks on write at specified location. • Read/Write - Program breaks on read or write at specified location. Access Size You can configure the breakpoint to break on specific Access Size. Four types of access size are supported. • Any Access (Default) - Program breaks on any access size at specified location. • Byte Access - Program breaks on Byte access at specified location. • HalfWord Access - Program breaks on HalfWord access at specified location. • Word Access - Program breaks on Word access at specified location. Example for setting access size Configuration: Code: 1: int word = 0; 2: short *halfWord = (short*)&word; 3: Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 92 4: int main(void) 5: { 6: word = 0xAABBCCFF; 7: *halfWord = 0xDDEE; 8: } For the above configuration and code, program breaks at line eight after halfWord access. Data Match Use the Data Match option to configure Data Breakpoint to compare the data at specified location with a 32-bit value. Break event is triggered on a successful match. Value 32-bit (4-byte) value to compare with data at Location address. The value can be decimal or hexadecimal (e.g.: 100 or 0x64). Based on Access Size, respective bytes are used for data comparison. For example, if you select "HalfWord Access" as Access Size and enter 0xAABBCCDD as Value, then only the last two bytes (0xCCDD) are used for data comparison. You could further refine the Value by specifying Mask. Mask (Byte) Each check box controls the significance of respective byte in the Value field. Select appropriate check box to mask specific byte in the Value field. The number of check boxes displayed is decided based on Access Size. Four check boxes (one per byte) are displayed for "Any" and "Word Access", two check boxes for "HalfWord Access" and one check box for "Byte Access". Match Value A read only field, which displays masked value based on Access Size, Value, and Mask (Byte) field. Masked byte is represented as 'XX', which means that byte is insignificant in data comparison. 4.8.2.5. Data Breakpoint Configuration Window for SAM Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 93 Provides the configuration options related to data breakpoint for SAM devices. Address mask and Data match are optional. Location You can enter a specific address (e.g.: 0x8004) directly or an expression that evaluates to an address (e.g.: &x). Make sure the expression you enter represents the address of the data to monitor. Note:  Data breakpoints on local variables can result in false hits due to reuse of stack memory. Suggestion to declare it as static for debugging purpose. Access Mode You can configure the breakpoint to break on a specific Access Mode. Three types of access modes are supported. • Read - Program breaks on read at specified location. • Write (Default) - Program breaks on write at specified location. • Read/Write - Program breaks on read or write at specified location. Address Mask Use this setting to define range of addresses to monitor for access. Byte Count You can enter a number of address locations to monitor starting at Location address. The actual range of monitored address can be wider than the expected range. E.g.: if the Location is 0x23FA and the Byte Count is 5, then the actual range of the monitored address is [0x23F8 to 0x23FF]. The way actual range is computed is by calculating the number of least significant bits that has to be masked in the Location address (0x23FA) in order to cover the expected range [0x23FA to 0x23FA + 5]. In this case the number of bits to be masked is three. As a result the actual range [0x23F8 to 0x23FF] is wider than the expected range [0x23FA to 0x23FF]. Mask Size This is a read only field, which displays the number of least significant bits masked in the Location address. Mask Size is calculated based on the Byte Count and Location addresses. Address Range This is a read only field, which displays the actual range of address monitored for access. Range is closed interval including both minimum and maximum address. Data Match Use the Data Match option to configure Data Breakpoint to compare the data at specified location with a 32-bit value. Break event is triggered on a successful match. Value 32-bit (4-byte) value to compare with data at the Location address. The value can be decimal or hexadecimal (e.g.: 100 or 0x64). You could further refine the Value by specifying Mask. Mask You can use Mask to extract appropriate bytes from Value to use for data comparison. E.g.: if the Value is 0xAABBCCDD and Mask is HalfWord, then last two bytes (0xCCDD) is extracted from Value and used for data comparison. This means data comparison would succeed for the following matches 0xXXXXCCDD, 0xXXCCDDXX, and 0xCCDDXXXX, where X is a don't care hexadecimal digit (0 to F). Three types of Mask's are supported. • Byte - Last byte extracted from Value is used for data comparison. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 94 • HalfWord - Last two bytes extracted from Value is used for data comparison. • Word (Default) - Whole four bytes from Value is used for data comparison. Match Value This is a read only field which displays match values. Data Match Example Byte matching example • Location = 0x200008D4 • Value = 0x0000CCAA • Mask = Byte The program breaks when Location0x200008D4 has any of the following values: • 0xXXXXXXAA • 0xXXXXAAXX • 0xXXAAXXXX • 0xAAXXXXXX HalfWord matching example • Location = 0x200008D4 • Value = 0x0000CCAA • Mask = HalfWord The program breaks when Location0x200008D4 has any of the following values: • 0xXXXXCCAA • 0xXXCCAAXX • 0xCCAAXXXX Word matching example • Location = 0x200008D4 • Value = 0x0000CCAA • Mask = Word The program breaks when Location 0x200008D4 has the following value: • 0x00000CCAA Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 95 4.8.2.6. Data Breakpoint Configuration Window for Simulator Tool The above configuration window is displayed for any device architecture when a simulator tool is selected. Location You can enter a specific address in RAM (e.g.: 0x8004) directly or an expression that evaluates to an address in RAM (e.g.: &x). Make sure the expression you enter represents the address of the data to monitor. Note:  Data breakpoints on local variables can result in false hits due to reuse of stack memory. Suggestion to declare it as static for debugging purpose. Access Mode You can configure the breakpoint to break on specific Access Mode. Three types of access modes are supported. • Read - Program breaks on read at specified location. • Write (Default) - Program breaks on write at specified location. • Read/Write - Program breaks on read or write at specified location. Byte Count You can enter number of address locations to monitor starting at Location address. Note:  • Simulator supports unlimited number of data breakpoints 4.8.2.7. How to: Specify a Data Breakpoint Hit Count Hit count The number of times the value stored in the specified memory location is accessed (read/write). To specify a hit count To specify or edit the Hit Count property, you must open the Hit Count Dialog Box. In Data Breakpoints window, select a breakpoint row, and then choose Hit Count on the context menu. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 96 Figure 4-8. Hit Count Dialog Box To set or modify a hit count property, use the following controls: • When the breakpoint is hit: This setting determines how the breakpoint should behave when it is hit. You can choose to: • Break always (the default) • Break when the hit count equals a specified value • Break when the hit count equals a multiple of a specified value • Break when the hit count is greater or equal to a specified value • Current hit count: This value shows the number of times the data breakpoint has been hit. A read/ write data for a variable will be converted into multiple instructions, resulting in several memory access. So the data breakpoint hits multiple times for the same variable and the hit count will be updated accordingly. • Reset: This button resets the value shown for the Current hit count to 0. If you choose any option other than the default in When the breakpoint is hit list control, an edit box appears next to it. Edit the value in this edit box to set the hit count value. For example, you might choose break when hit count is equal to and enter 5. This causes execution to stop the 5th time the breakpoint is hit, not on any other hit. 4.8.2.8. When Breakpoint is Hit Dialog Box With this dialog box you can print a message in the output window when a data breakpoint is hit. To open the When Breakpoint Is Hit Dialog Box, go to the Data Breakpoints window, select a breakpoint row, and then choose When Hit on the context menu. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 97 Specify the message • You can use any of the keywords that are described on the When Breakpoint Is Hit dialog box. E.g.: Process Id : $PID. • You can also specify expressions in the message by placing it in the curly braces, such as sum={a +b} Specify the breakpoint behavior To break execution when the breakpoint is hit, clear the Continue Execution check box. When Continue Execution is checked, execution is not halted. In both cases, the message is printed. 4.8.3. General Information on Data Breakpoint • Data Breakpoint can be edited/added only in debug mode • Local variables must always be qualified with the function name. This is also the case if the user wants to add a variable from the function that the program has stopped in. Data breakpoints on local variables can result in false hits due to reuse of stack memory. Tip:  Declare local variables as static and provide the static variable's address in the location field, the address of the static variable is fixed during compilation/linking. • Global variables are initialized with default values during the start up, the valid data breakpoint for global variables will hit in the disassembly or initialization code during the start up Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 98 • There can be several instructions to perform read/write data for a variable, for example 'int' data type can have two individual byte read/write instructions so the data breakpoint hits twice for the same variable • Data breakpoint event can occur when the bus access happens for the specific address • Maximum number of data breakpoint supported: (this may vary based on specific device/family refer data sheet) Architecture Maximum Data breakpoint supported ATmega • Two without Data Mask (OR) • One without Data Mask and one with Data Mask XMEGA • Two without Data Mask (OR) • One without Data Mask and one with Data Mask (OR) • Two with Data Mask UC3 • Two without Data Mask (OR) • One without Data Mask and one with Data Mask (OR) • Two with Data Mask SAM Device dependent refer data sheet Tiny Does not support data breakpoint Most of the devices conforms to the above limit. Note:  ATmega and SAM device uses multiple hardware resources when a data breakpoint with data mask is set. Hence, using data mask can reduce the number of data breakpoint that can be set. 4.8.4. Data Breakpoint Usage 4.8.4.1. Stack Overflow Detection Using Data Breakpoint You can decide on maximum stack size for the your application and calculate the approximate end address for the stack. In the end address set the data breakpoint for address range by applying address mask and access type as Read/Write. Note:  The above method may cause false break when heap memory tries to access the specified stack end address. 4.9. QuickWatch, Watch, Locals, and Autos Windows The Atmel Studio debugger provides several windows, collectively known as variable windows, for displaying variable information while you are debugging. Each variable window has a grid with three columns: Name, Value, and Type. The Name column shows the names of variables added automatically in the Auto and Locals windows. In the Watch window, the Name column is where you can add your own variables or expressions. See how to watch an expression in the Debugger. The Value and Type columns display the value and data type of the corresponding variable or expression result. You can edit the value of a variable in the Value column. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 99 The variable windows, Autos, Locals, and Watch, display the values of certain variables during a debugging session. The QuickWatch dialog box can also display variables. When the debugger is in break mode, you can use the variable windows to edit the values of most variables that appear in these locations. Note:  Editing floating-point values can result in minor inaccuracies because of decimal-to-binary conversion of fractional components. Even a seemingly harmless edit can result in changes to some of the least significant bits in the floating-point variable. When an expression is evaluated in the Watch window, you might see a refresh icon. This indicates an error or out-of-date value. For more information, see How to: Refresh Watch Values. If you want to, you can enter an expression for a value. The debugger will evaluate the expression and replace it with the resulting value. The debugger accepts most valid language expressions in a Watch window. For more information, see Expression Formatting. If you are programming in native code, you might sometimes have to qualify the context of a variable name or an expression that contains a variable name. The context means the function, source file, and module where a variable is located. If you have to do this, you can use the context operator syntax. For more information, see Context Operator (C/C++ Language Expressions). Evaluating some expressions can change the value of a variable or otherwise affect the state of your program. For example, evaluating the following expression changes the value of var1 and var2: var1 = var2++ var1 = var2++ Expressions that change data are said to have side effects, which can produce unexpected results if you are not aware of them. Therefore, make sure you understand the effect of an expression before you execute it. To edit a value in a variable window 1. The debugger must be in break mode. 2. If the variable is an array or an object, a tree control appears next to the name in the Name box. In the Name column, expand the variable, if necessary, to find the element whose value you want to edit. 3. In the row you want to change, double-click the Value column. 4. Type the new value. 5. Press ENTER. To display a variable window On the Debug menu, choose Windows, then choose the name of the variable window you want to display (Autos, Locals, Watch, or Watch1 through Watch4). You cannot access these menu items or display these windows in design mode. To display these menu items, the debugger must be running or in break mode. 4.9.1. Watch Window Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 100 The Watch window and QuickWatch dialog box are places where you can enter variable names and expressions that you want to watch during a debugging session. The QuickWatch dialog box enables you to examine a single variable or expression at a time. It is useful for taking a quick look at one value or a larger data structure. The Watch window can store several variables and expressions that you want to view over the course of the debugging session. Atmel Studio has multiple Watch windows, which are numbered Watch1 through Watch4. A variable name is the simplest expression you can enter. If you are debugging native code, you can use register names as well as variable names. The debugger can accept much more complex expressions than that, however. For example, you could enter the following expression to find the average value of three variables: (var1 + var2 + var3) / 3 The debugger accepts most valid language expressions in a Watch window. For more information, see Expression Formatting. If you are programming in native code, you may sometimes need to qualify the context of a variable name or an expression containing a variable name. The context means the function, source file, and module where a variable is located. If you have to do this, you can use the context operator syntax. Expressions that Affect the State of Your Program Evaluating some expressions can change the value of a variable or otherwise affect the state of your program. For example, evaluating the following expression changes the value of var1: var1 = var2 Expressions that change data are said to have side effects. If you enter an expression that has a side effect into the Watch window, the side effect will occur every time the expression is evaluated by the Watch window. This can produce unexpected results if you are unaware that the expression has side effects. An expression that is known to have side effects is only evaluated one time, when you first enter it. Subsequent evaluations are disabled. You can manually override this behavior by clicking an update icon that appears next to the value. Unexpected side effects are frequently the result of function evaluation. For example, you could enter the following function call into the Watch window: PrintFunc1(var1) Func1(var1) If you call a function from the Watch window or QuickWatch, the function you are calling might change data, creating a side effect. One way to avoid possible unexpected side effects from function evaluation is Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 101 to turn OFF automatic function evaluation in the Options dialog box. This disables automatic evaluation of newer language features, such as properties. However, it is safer. Note:  When you examine an expression in the Watch window, you might see an update icon, which resembles two green arrows, circling in opposite directions within a green circle. This is especially likely if you have turned OFF automatic function evaluation. The update icon indicates an error or out-of-date value. The Atmel Studio debugger automatically expands common data types to show their most important elements. You add expansions for custom data types. For more information, see Displaying Custom Data Types and Visualizers. Note:  The dialog boxes and menu commands you see might differ from those described in Help depending on your active settings or edition. To change your settings, choose Import and Export Settings on the Tools menu. For more information, see Menus and Settings. To evaluate an expression in the Watch window 1. In the Watch window, click an empty row in the Name column. The debugger must be in break mode at this point. Type or paste the variable name or expression you want to watch. —or— Drag a variable to a row in the Watch window. 2. Press ENTER. 3. The result appears in the Value column. If you type the name of an array or object variable, a tree control appears next to the name in the Name column. Expand or collapse the variable in the Name column. 4. The expression remains in the Watch window until you remove it. To evaluate an expression in QuickWatch 1. In the QuickWatch dialog box, type or paste the variable, register, or expression into the Expression text box. 2. Click Reevaluate or press ENTER. 3. The value appears in the Current value box. 4. If you type the name of an array or object variable in the Expression box, a tree control appears next to the name in the Current value box. Expand or collapse the variable in the Name column. To reevaluate a previous expression in QuickWatch 1. In the QuickWatch dialog box, click the down arrow that appears to the right of the Expression box. 2. Choose one of the previous expressions from the drop-down list. 3. Click Reevaluate. 4.9.2. Locals Window Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 102 The Locals window displays variables local to the current context. 4.9.2.1. To Display the Locals Window From the Debug menu, choose Windows and click Locals. (The debugger must be running or in break mode.) 4.9.2.2. To Choose an Alternative Context The default context is the function containing the current execution location. You can choose an alternate context to display in the Locals window: • Use the Debug Location toolbar to select the desired function, thread, or program • Double click on an item in the Call Stack or Threads window To view or modify information in the Locals window, the debugger must be in break mode. If you choose Continue, some information may appear in the Locals window while your program executes, but it will not be current until the next time your program breaks (in other words, it hits a breakpoint or you choose Break All from the Debug menu). 4.9.2.3. To Modify the Value of a Variable in the Locals Window 1. The debugger must be in break mode. 2. In the Locals window, select the value you want to edit by double-clicking on it or by using the TAB key. 3. Type the new value, and press ENTER. Attention:  Editing floating-point values can result in minor inaccuracies because of decimal-to-binary conversion of fractional components. Even a seemingly harmless edit can result in changes to some of the least significant bits in the floating-point variable. Setting Numeric Format You can set the numeric format used in the debugger windows to decimal or hexadecimal. Right click inside the Locals window, and check/uncheck the Hexadecimal display menu item. 4.9.3. Autos Window The Autos window displays variables used in the current statement and the previous statement. The current statement is the statement at the current execution location (the statement that will be executed next if execution continues). The debugger identifies these variables for you automatically, hence the window name. Structure and array variables have a tree control that you can use to display or hide the elements. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 103 To display the Autos window From the Debug menu, choose Windows and click Autos. (The debugger must be running or in break mode.) 4.9.3.1. To Modify the Value of a Variable in the Autos Window 1. The debugger must be in break mode. 2. Display the Autos window, if necessary. 3. In the Value column, double-click the value you want to change. -orSingle-click to select the line, then press the TAB key. 4. Type the new value, and press ENTER. Attention:  Editing floating-point values can result in minor inaccuracies because of decimal-to-binary conversion of fractional components. Even a seemingly harmless edit can result in changes to some of the least significant bits in the floating-point variable. 4.9.3.2. Setting Numeric Format You can set the numeric format used in the debugger windows to decimal or hexadecimal. Right click inside the Autos window, and check/uncheck the Hexadecimal display menu item. 4.9.4. QuickWatch and Watches While debugging you might want to track a value of a variable or an expression. To do so you can right click at the expression under cursor and select Add a Watch or Quickwatch. The QuickWatch dialog box lets you examine and evaluate variables and expressions. Because QuickWatch is a modal dialog box, you have to close it before you can continue to debug. You can also edit the value of a variable in QuickWatch. For more information on how to watch a variable, see Watch Window. Some users might wonder why QuickWatch is useful. Why not add the variable or expression to the Watch window? That is possible, but if you just want to do a quick scratch calculation that involves one or Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 104 more variables, you do not want to clutter the Watch window with such calculations. That is when the QuickWatch dialog box is especially useful. Another feature of the QuickWatch dialog box is that it is resizeable. If you want to examine the members of a large object, it is frequently easier to expand and examine the tree QuickWatch than it is in the Watch, Locals, or Autos window. The QuickWatch dialog box does not allow you to view more than one variable or expression at a time. Also, because QuickWatch is a modal dialog box, you cannot perform operations such as stepping through your code while QuickWatch is open. If you want to do these things, use the Watch window instead. Some expressions have side effects that change the value of a variable or otherwise change the state of your program when they are executed. Evaluating an expression in the QuickWatch dialog box will have the same effect as executed the expression in your code. This can produce unexpected results if you do not consider the side effects of the expression. Note:  In Atmel Studio, you can view a variable's value by placing the cursor over the variable. A small box called a DataTip appears and shows the value. To open the QuickWatch dialog box While in break mode, choose QuickWatch on the Debug menu. To open the QuickWatch dialog box with a variable added While in break mode, right-click a variable name in the source window name and choose QuickWatch. This automatically places the variable into the QuickWatch dialog box. To add a QuickWatch expression to the Watch window In the QuickWatch dialog box, click Add Watch. Whatever expression that was displayed in the QuickWatch dialog box is added to the list of expressions in the Watch window. The expression will normally be added to the Watch1 window. 4.9.5. Expression Formatting The Atmel Studio debugger includes expression evaluators that work when you enter an expression in the QuickWatch and Watches, Memory View, Watch Window, or Immediate window. The expression evaluators are also at work in the Breakpoints window and many other places in the debugger. General Syntax: Val, formatString Format Specifier for values The following tables show the format specifiers recognized by the debugger. Table 4-3. Debug Format Specifiers for Values Specifier Format Expression Value displayed d,i signed decimal integer 0xF000F065, d -268373915 u unsigned decimal integer 0x0065, u 101 b unsigned binary number 0xaa,b2 0b10101010 o unsigned octal integer 0xF065, o 0170145 Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 105 Specifier Format Expression Value displayed x,X Hexadecimal integer 61541, x 0x0000F065 1,2,4,8 As a suffix specifying number of bytes for: d, i, u, o, x, X. 00406042,x2 0x0c22 s String 0x2000, s "Hello World" f signed floating point (3./2.), f 1.500000 e signed scientific notation (3./2.), e 1.500000e+000 g signed floating point or signed scientific notation, whichever is shorter (3./2.), g 1.5 c Single character 0x0065, c 101 'e' Size Specifier for Pointers as Arrays If you have a pointer to an object you want to view as an array, you can use an integer to specify the number of array elements: ptr,10 or array,20 Memory type specifier The following memory type specifiers will force the memory reference to a specific memory type. To be used in the memory window in the address field, you should have a pointer to an object you want to view as an array. You can use an integer to specify the number of the array elements: Table 4-4. Debug Memory Type Specifiers Specifier Expression Value displayed flash or program Program memory 0,flash data Data memory 0x2000,data sram SRAM 0x100,sram reg or registers registers 1,reg io, eeprom, fusebytes, lockbytes, signature, usersign, prodsign Memory types with same names 4.10. DataTips DataTips provide a convenient way to view information about variables in your program during debugging. DataTips work only in break mode and only with variables that are in the current scope of execution. In Atmel Studio, DataTips can be pinned to a specific location in a source file, or they can float on top of all Atmel Studio windows. To display a DataTip (in break mode only) 1. In a source window, place the mouse pointer over any variable in the current scope. A DataTip appears. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 106 2. The DataTip disappears when you remove the mouse pointer. To pin the DataTip so that it remains open, click the Pin to source icon, or – Right-click on a variable, then click Pin to source The pinned DataTip closes when the debugging session ends. To unpin a DataTip and make it float • In a pinned DataTip, click the Unpin from source icon The pin icon changes to the unpinned position. The DataTip now floats above any open windows. The floating DataTip closes when the debugging session ends. To repin a floating DataTip • In a DataTip, click the pin icon The pin icon changes to the pinned position. If the DataTip is outside a source window, the pin icon is disabled and the DataTip cannot be pinned. To close a DataTip • Place the mouse pointer over a DataTip, and then click the Close icon To close all DataTips • On the Debug menu, click Clear All DataTips To close all DataTips for a specific file • On the Debug menu, click Clear All DataTips Pinned to File 4.10.1. Expanding and Editing Information You can use DataTips to expand an array, a structure, or an object to view its members. You can also edit the value of a variable from a DataTip. To expand a variable to see its elements: • In a DataTip, put the mouse pointer over the + sign that comes before the variable name The variable expands to show its elements in tree form. When the variable is expanded, you can use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move up and down. Alternatively, you can use the mouse. To edit the value of a variable using a DataTip 1. In a DataTip, click the value. This is disabled for read-only values. 2. Type a new value and press ENTER. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 107 4.10.2. Making a DataTip Transparent If you want to see the code that is behind a DataTip, you can make the DataTip temporarily transparent. This does not apply to DataTips that are pinned or floating. To make a DataTip transparent • In a DataTip, press CTRL The DataTip will remain transparent as long as you hold down the CTRL key. 4.10.3. Visualizing Complex Data Types If a magnifying glass icon appears next to a variable name in a DataTip, one or more Visualizers are available for variables of that data type. You can use a visualizer to display the information in a more meaningful, usually graphical, manner. To view the contents of a variable using a visualizer • Click the magnifying glass icon to select the default visualizer for the data type -orClick the pop-up arrow next to the visualizer to select from a list of appropriate visualizers for the data type. A visualizer displays the information. 4.10.4. Adding Information to a Watch Window If you want to continue to watch a variable, you can add the variable to the Watch window from a DataTip. To add a variable to the Watch window • Right-click a DataTip, and then click Add Watch The variable is added to the Watch window. If you are using an edition that supports multiple Watch windows, the variable is added to Watch 1. 4.10.5. Importing and Exporting DataTips You can export DataTips to an XML file, which can be shared with a colleague or edited using a text editor. To Export DataTips 1. On the Debug menu, click Export DataTips. The Export DataTips dialog box appears. 2. Use standard file techniques to navigate to the location where you want to save the XML file, type a name for the file in the File name box, and then click OK. To Import DataTips 1. On the Debug menu, click Import DataTips. The Import DataTips dialog box appears. 2. Use the dialog box to find the XML file that you want to open and click OK. 4.11. Disassembly View The Disassembly window is only available when debugging. When any supported high level language is used, the source window is automatically displayed and the disassembly window is OFF. Enable it by choosing Debug → Windows → Disassembly or Ctrl Alt D during a debugging session. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 108 The disassembly window shows your program code disassembled. Program execution and AVR instructions can be followed in this view. By right clicking inside the Disassembly window you will be able to set breakpoints, run to the position of the cursor, or go to the source code. You cannot modify the source code from the Disassembly window. In addition to assembly instructions, the Disassembly window can show the following optional information: • Memory address where each instruction is located. For native applications, this is the actual memory address. • Source code from which the assembly code derives • Code bytes byte representations of the actual machine • Symbol names for the memory addresses • Line numbers corresponding to the source code Assembly-language instructions consist of mnemonics, which are abbreviations for instruction names, and symbols that represent variables, registers, and constants. Each machine-language instruction is represented by one assembly-language mnemonic, usually followed by one or more variables, registers, or constants. Because assembly code relies heavily on processor registers or, in the case of managed code, common language runtime registers, you will often find it useful to use the Disassembly window in conjunction with the Registers window, which allows you to examine register contents. Note:  You may see inconsistencies in instructions that work on explicit addresses. This stems from the historic difference between the AVR Assembler and Assembly Language and the GCC Assembler and the assembly used on bigger computer systems. You might therefore encounter disassemblies that look like the one below. 13: asm volatile ("JMP 0x0001778A"); 0000007D 0c.94.c5.bb JMP 0x0000BBC5 Jump > Here the assembly instruction JMP 0x0001778A is being assembled by the GCC Assembler, and disassembled using the built-in disassembler in Atmel Studio, which resolves the jump to 0x0000BBC5, which is exactly half of the address in the initial assembly. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 109 It should be noted that the addresses are always of the same dimension as the line addresses shown in the disassembly, so the code is functionally similar. 4.12. I/O View 4.12.1. About the I/O View The purpose of the I/O View is to provide an overview of the registers of the target device for the current project. It serves as a quick reference during design, and is capable of displaying register values when the project is in debug mode. The view supports both 32- and 8-bit devices equally. The default view of the tool window is a vertically split window with peripheral groups in the top section, and registers in the bottom section. Each peripheral typically has a set of defined settings and value enumerations, which can be displayed by expanding a register in the peripheral view (top section). The register view (bottom section) will display all registers which belong to a selected peripheral group. If no peripheral is selected, the view is empty. Each register can also be expanded to display the pre-defined value groupings which belongs to the register. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 110 4.12.2. Using the I/O View Tool The I/O View is confined to a single tool window in the development environment. There can only be one instance of the I/O view at a time. To open the window, select Debug → Windows → I/O View. When in design mode, the I/O View will be disabled for inputs. It is still possible to change the layout or filters, and to navigate the view, but no values can be set or read. To read or change a value in the registers, AVR Studio must be in debug break mode (execution paused). In this mode, all the controls of the I/O View will be enabled and values can be read and updated in the view. In addition to simply displaying the value of a register, the I/O View will display each bit in the register in a separate column. Bits which are set will have a dark color by default, and cleared bits will have no color (default white). To change a bit, simply click it, and the value will be toggled. 4.12.3. Editing Values and Bits in Break Mode When the project is in debug break mode, any value can be changed by clicking the value field and writing a new value. Some values and bits cannot be modified as they are read-only, and some bits may be write-only. See the documentation for each device for more information. When a bit or value is set, it is immediately read back from the device, ensuring that the I/O View only displays actual values from the device. If a new value is set, but the I/O view does not update as expected, the register might be writeonly or simply not accessible. When a register has changed since last time it was displayed, it will indicate so with a red colored value and bits in the display. If a bit has been set since last time, it will be solid red. If it has been cleared it will simply have a red border. This feature can be toggled on or off in the toolbar. 4.13. Processor View Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 111 Debug → Processor View. The processor view offers a simulated or direct view of the current target device MPU or MCU. On the picture above you can see a partial list of the simulated device's ATxmega128U1 registers. The program counter shows the address of the instruction being executed, the stack pointer shows the application's current stack pointer value. The X,Y, and Z registers are temporary pointers that can be used in indirect passing or retrieving arguments or objects to and from functions. Cycle counter counts the cycles elapsed from the simulation’s start. Status register or SREG shows the currently set flags. Further on you will be able to toggle a setting for displaying the flag names. The stop watch field allows you to make rudimentary profiling of your application. It is influenced by the frequency set in the Frequency field, which defines target MCU/MPU frequency, in case when the prototyping board is connected. Each register can be displayed in hexadecimal, decimal, octal, and binary (flag) format by right-clicking and choosing Display in binary, etc., or Display in.... Each field can also be modified, as shown in the below image. If a field is a status or flags register, composed of a number of the one-bit flags, you can toggle individual flags by clicking on them - . The processor view is only active in the debug mode. 4.14. Register View Debug → Windows → Register View or Ctrl Alt G. The register view offers a simple way to see the data and system registers of your target or simulated device. You cannot modify the registers' contents from the Register view. 4.15. Memory View Debug → Windows → Memory view, or Ctrl Alt M n where n is the memory's number. The memory view gives you an outline of the memory. It is possible to select among the attached memories to see all the Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 112 segments by switching between them in a Segment drop-down menu on top of the memory view. You can also specify the starting address for the memory view window in the Address form field on top of the memory view. In order to specify the address you can use either a normal hexadecimal entry or an expression. See Expression Formatting. The Columns drop-down menu allows you to specify how many byte-aligned memory columns you wish to see at one time, most often this should be left at Auto setting, but if you have to manually check a fixed-length type values and you know how many words or bytes those values occupy, you could align the memory view so that each row will correspond to a desired number of values. 4.16. Call Stack Window Note:  Call Stack Window is currently only supported for 32-bit devices. Call stack shows the hierarchical information of callers of the current method. By default, the Call Stack window displays the name of each function. To display Call Stack, Click the menu, Debug → Windows → Call Stack. Along with function name, optional information such as module name, line number, etc. may also be displayed. The display of this optional information can be turned ON or OFF. To switch ON/OFF the optional information displayed, Right-click the Call Stack window and select or deselect Show Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 113 Stack frame of the current execution pointer is indicated by an yellow arrow. By default, this is the frame whose information appears in the source, Disassembly, Locals, Watch, and Auto windows. The stack frame context can also be changed to be another frame displayed in the Call Stack window. Warning:  Call Stack may not show all the call frames with Optimization levels -O1 and higher. To switch to another stack frame 1. In the Call Stack window, right-click the frame whose code and data you want to view. 2. Select Switch to Frame. A green arrow with a curly tail indicates the changed stack context. The execution pointer remains in the original frame, which is still marked with the yellow arrow. If you select Step or Continue from the Debug menu, the execution will be continued from the yellow arrow, not the frame you selected. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 114 To view the source/disassembly code for a function on the call stack 1. In the Call Stack window, right-click the function whose source code you want to see and select Go To Source Code. 2. In the Call Stack window, right-click the function whose disassembly code you want to see and select Go To Disassembly. To set a breakpoint on the exit point of a function call In the Call Stack window, right-click the stack frame to which you would like to add the breakpoint. Select "BreakPoint → Insert Breakpoint" to add the breakpoint. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 115 4.17. Object File Formats While Atmel Studio uses ELF/DWARF as the preferred object file-/debug info-format, You may debug other formats. Several object file formats from various compiler vendors are supported. You can open and debug these files, but you may not be able to edit the code from within Atmel Studio. Using your own editor to edit code and Atmel Studio to debug (use the reload button), you will still have a powerful code/ debug environment. All external debug sessions require you to load an object file supported by Atmel Studio. An object file for debugging usually contains symbolic information which is not included in a release file. The debug information enables Atmel Studio to give extended possibilities when debugging, e.g. Source file stepping and breakpoints set in high level language like C. Precompiled object files can be opened by using the menu command Open file → Open Object File for Debugging. See section Debug Object File in Atmel Studio for more info. Table 4-5. Object File Formats Supported by Atmel Studio Object file format Extension Description UBROF .d90 UBROF is an IAR proprietary format. The debug output file contains a complete set of debug information and symbols to support all type of watches. UBROF8 and earlier versions are supported. This is the default output format of IAR EW 2.29 and earlier versions. See below how to force IAR EW 3.10 and later versions to generate UBROF8. ELF/DWARF .elf ELF/DWARF debug information is an open standard. The debug format supports a complete set of debug information and symbols to support all types of watches. The version of the format read by Atmel Studio is DWARF2. AVR-GCC versions configured for DWARF2 output can generate this format. AVRCOFF .cof COFF is an open standard intended for 3rd party vendors creating extensions or tools supported by the Atmel Studio. AVR Assembler format .obj The AVR assembler output file format contains source file info for source stepping. It is an Atmel internal format only. The .map file are automatically parsed to get some watch information. Before debugging, make sure you have set up your external compiler/assembler to generate an object file with debug information in one of the formats above. 3 rd party compiler vendors should output the ELF/DWARF object file format to ensure support in Atmel Studio. Optionally you could provide an extension to have both debugging and compile support. See Contact Information for more information. Tip:  How to generate AVR-compatible ELF file in IARW32: In the Project options → Output format dialog choose elf/dwarf, and in the Project options → Format variant select ARM-compatible "-yes". Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 116 Tip:  How to force IAR EW 3.10 and later versions to generate UBROF8: By default IAR EW 3.10 and later versions output UBROF9. Currently, Atmel Studio cannot read this format. To force the debug format to UBROF8 open the project options dialog and change the Output format setting to ubrof 8 (forced). Note that the default file name extension is changed from '.d90' to '.dbg' when selecting this option. To keep the '.d90' extension, click the Override default check button and change the extension. 4.18. Trace In Atmel Studio, trace is provided on a plug-in basis. This means that different plugins separate from the core of Atmel Studio will be the provider of the different graphics view to visualize trace. In the realm of trace, there are some terminology that describe the different trace sources that a device and tool combination supports. These high level source names are mapped to different architecture specific trace sources. The following sections will describe some of the high level trace sources that might be available, and how it is mapped to the target architecture. Only a high level description of the different sources will be given, as the device specific details are available in the respective datasheet. Note:  The architecture for discovering trace capabilities in Atmel Studio is based on what the chip itself reports. This means that a debug session needs to be running so that the capabilities can be probed. This means that when activating a trace source, Atmel Studio might fail if the device does not support the source that was asked for during launch. 4.18.1. Application Output Application output is a common name for a technique that provides what is known as a stimuli port. This implies some mean for the application running on the device to output data to a debugger that is connected. 4.18.1.1. ITM ITM is an optional part of the debug system on ARM cores. The module provides a set of registers that an application can write data to, that will be streamed out to the debugger. 4.18.1.2. IDR Events When the application program writes a byte of data to the OCDR register of an AVR device while being debugged, the debugger reads this value out and displays it as IDR events in the output window as shown in the figure below. The OCDR register is polled at a given interval, so writing to it at a higher frequency than the one specified for the debugger will not yield reliable results. The datasheet of the device will explain how to check that a given value has been read. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 117 Figure 4-9. IDR Events Note that the Output window does not have the “IDR Messages” drop down if no IDR events have been sent from the debugger. 4.18.2. Program Counter Sampling This trace source involves some sort of sample system that reads out the program counter of the device periodically. This can then be used to graph where execution time is being spent, based on some statistical average. 4.18.2.1. ARM Implementations There are two ways of sampling the program counter on an ARM Cortex core. The first is using an optional module in the debug system that emits the program counter to the debugger without any impact on the core itself. The program counter is emitted on the SWO pin. As not all Cortex implementation can emit the program counter, Atmel Studio also supports doing a periodical readout of the program counter while to core is running. This is possible as most Cortex devices supports readout of memory while the core is running, with a small impact on the running application as the debug system needs to access the memory bus. 4.18.2.2. AVR 32-bit Implementation Reading the program counter on the AVR 32-bit core is possible in the same way as mentioned in ARM Implementations, as the core supports live readout of memory while the core is running. 4.18.3. Variable Watching Watching variables are usually covered by data breakpoints, see Data Breakpoints. However, on some systems it is also possible to make a data breakpoint emit the information to the debugger without halting the core, meaning that it is possible to watch variables in applications that for instance has some sort of external timing requirement that a data breakpoint would cause to fail. 4.18.3.1. ARM Implementations Data breakpoints on a Cortex core can be changed to emit a trace packet if the debug system implements the needed modules. This means that it is possible to get information about reads or writes to a specific memory location without an interference with the execution on the core. As a fallback to this, it is also possible to read a memory location at a given interval while the core is executing. This will not be any specific event data, but means that if the core supports live memory readout, it is possible to sample some parts of the memory. This has a minor impact on the execution, as the debug system needs to have access to the memory bus. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 118 4.18.3.2. AVR 32-bit Implementation The AVR 32-bit core also supports live readout of memory locations. This means that Atmel Studio can poll a memory location while to core is executing, giving a statistical view of how the variable is changing over time. 4.19. Trace View The Trace View allows you to record the program counter trace when a target is running. The program counter branches are mapped with the respective source line information. It also contains coverage and statistics for the source lines executed. To open the Trace View, go to Debug → Windows → Trace View. To use the functionality of the Trace View, a project has to be opened in Atmel Studio. Figure 4-10. Opening Trace View From the Menu 4.19.1. Trace View Options The Trace View toolbar has the following elements: • - Starts the program trace • - Stops the program trace • - Clears the program trace • - Toggles the highlighting of source code • - Configures the device to record the program trace • - Finds the exception record in the Trace Stack view • - Exports coverage statistics into an xml/xslt report 4.19.1.1. Starting the Program Trace The Program Trace can be started by clicking the play button in the Trace View Window. The start button is enabled during debug. Trace can be started and stopped any number of times in a debug session. Starting a new trace session clears all trace information of the previous trace session. Note:  A region of SRAM has to be allocated to let the device record the trace. Refer to Trace View Settings for more information. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 119 Figure 4-11. Trace View Window 4.19.1.2. Stop Trace Trace can be stopped in run or debug mode. The trace session will be ended automatically without user intervention when the debugging session ends. 4.19.1.3. Clear Trace The clear button clears the trace in the Trace View Window. New trace information will be logged in the same tool window with continuous sequence number. Clear can be done any number of times within a trace session. Once cleared the trace data cannot be recovered. 4.19.1.4. Highlight Source Code Highlight is a toggle button which toggles between highlighting and non-highlighting of the source code. The source code that are covered are highlighted with a green color and remaining source lines with a red color representing the uncovered source code for the current execution. Figure 4-12. Code Highlight Note:  Only the compilable lines are taken into consideration. For example, lines with comments and variable declaration are ignored. 4.19.1.5. Trace View Settings The device has to be configured to record the trace information in SRAM. The allocated size for recording the program trace can be configured from this setting. The memory can be allocated in: • Source code, allocating a global array • Linker scripts, reserving an amount of the memory map Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 120 Select the memory size to be allocated for recording the program trace. Copy the snippet of code displayed in configuration window by clicking on the CopyToClipBoard button and paste into your source code. Follow the instructions given in the dialog to enable the tracing capability. Figure 4-13. Trace Settings Window Through Source Code Note:  If both the linker script and the source code is configured for trace, the linker script settings takes the higher precedence over source code settings. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 121 Figure 4-14. Trace Settings Window through Linker Script 4.19.2. Trace View Interpretation The Trace View window contains the following items: • Trace Stack View • Coverage View 4.19.2.1. Trace Stack View Trace Stack View is populated with program trace information while the target is in a running or debugging state. Trace Stack View contains a sequence number, source and destination address, and a repeat count. A new program trace record is shown when a branching instruction happens on the target, for example as a function call or a return from a function. • Sequence Number - Number that keeps track of the order of the record. This number is reset for every trace session. This number will be continued without break when trace is cleared using clear button from the toolbar. • Source - Represents the instruction/source line from which the branch happened. For example, in a function call, Source is the source line from where the function is being called. • Destination - Represents the instruction/source line to which the branching happened. For example, in a function call, Destination is the source code of the starting line of the function. • Repeat Count - Represents the number of times the same source and destination combination occurred consecutively. For example, if there is a delay which is logging the same packets, it will be grouped together and number of times record occurrence is termed as repeat count Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 122 The source and destination contains instruction address, function name, source file name, and line number. If the source line cannot be mapped only the instruction address is given. Double click on the source or destination navigates the cursor in the editor to the appropriate line. Navigation keys Up, Down, Left, Right, and Tab can be used to locate the source/disassembly view for the trace records. The program trace that is shown in the TraceStack view are cut down to the latest 20000 records by default. The threshold value can be changed using the slider. The program trace records are highlighted with a yellow color when the branching instruction was not an expected one. Unexpected branches usually happens due to some exception, and the entry and exit of the exception handler is highlighted with yellow color. The branching inside the exception are not highlighted. Figure 4-15. Exception Record Tip:  The next and previous exception records can be easily navigated to by using the up and down arrow buttons in the trace view window tool bar. There are some exceptional cases where some program traces could be missed. In that case there will be a packet with red color which represents that there are some discontinuation of the program trace information in the sequence. Since the number of missed packets are unknown, the sequence number shown in the Trace Stack view will be continued without any break except adding a red colored packet with a sequence number for it. Note:  The disassembly view is not supported when navigation keys are used, but it is supported when the record is double clicked using mouse. 4.19.2.2. Coverage View The coverage view shows statistics on the source covered as part of the current target execution. All the files and functions are listed in the coverage view with the information of number of lines covered or uncovered against the total number of lines in the source file. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 123 Figure 4-16. Code Coverage Note:  Only the compilable lines are taken into consideration for the statistics. For example, lines with comments and variable declaration are not taken into account. A coverage report can be exported. Click the export icon in the trace view toolbar to invoke the export operation. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 124 5. Programming Dialog 5.1. Introduction The Device Programming window (also known as the programming dialog), gives you the most low-level control of the debugging and programming tools. With it, you can program the device's different memories, fuses, and lockbits, erase memories, and write user signatures. It can also adjust some of the starter kit properties such as voltage and clock generators. Note:  If you are editing a code project in Atmel Studio and want to see the results of a compilation by downloading the code into the device, take a look at the Start without Debugging command. It is a sort of one-click programming alternative to the programming dialog. See section Start without Debugging for more information. The programming dialog is accessible from a button on the standard toolbar or the menu Tools → Device Programming. Figure 5-1. Device Programming Icon Figure 5-2. Opening Device Programming Dialog Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 125 Figure 5-3. Device Programming The programming dialog contains the following options and tabs: Top status bar Tool You can choose which tool you want to use from this drop-down menu. Only tools connected to the machine are listed. Also, if a tool is used in a debug session, it will not be listed. Several tools of the same type can be connected at the same time. In order to identify them, the serial number will be shown below the tool name in the list. When a tool is selected, the name (and serial number) will be shown in the title bar of the Device Programming dialog. Note:  The Simulator will only offer limited support for the programming dialog features. The Simulator has no persistent memory, so you will not be able to make permanent changes to any simulated devices. Device As soon as a tool is selected, the device list will show all devices supported by that tool. There are two ways to select a device: • Select from the list Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 126 Click on the arrow. This will reveal the list of supported devices. Click to select. • Select by typing. In this example, we will select the ATxmega128A3: 2.1. Double-click in the text field to select the text already present. 2.2. Start typing some part of the device's name, in this example 128A. The list updates while you type, showing all devices containing what is typed. 2.3. Press the Arrow Down keyboard button to move the selection into the list. Use the up and down keys to navigate. Press ENTER to make a selection. 2.4. The ATxmega128A3 is now selected. Note:  A red border around the device selector indicates that the text entered is not a valid device name. Continue typing until the device name is complete, or select from the list. Interface When a tool and a device is selected, the interface list will show the available interfaces. Only interfaces available on both the tool and the device will appear in this menu. Select the interface to use to program the AVR. Apply button When tool, device, and interface is selected, press the Apply button to make the selections take effect. This will establish connection to the tool. The list on the left side of the window will be updated with the relevant pages for the selected tool. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 127 If a different tool, device, or interface is selected, the Apply button must be pressed again, to make the new selections take effect. Device ID Press the Read button to read the signature bytes from the device. The device's unique tag will appear in this field, and can be used for tool compatibility checking and to obtain help either from customer support or from the people at AVR Freaks® . Target voltage All tools are capable of measuring the target's operating voltage. Press the refresh button to make a new measurement. A warning message will appear if the measured voltage is outside the operating range for the selected device, and the target voltage box will turn red. 5.2. Interface Settings The programming interfaces have different settings. Some interfaces have no settings at all, some interfaces settings are only available on some tools. This section will describe all settings, but they are not available for all tools and devices. JTAG If you have selected JTAG as the programming interface, clock speed, use external reset and daisy chain setting may be available. This depends on the tool and device. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 128 JTAG Clock JTAG clock is the maximum speed the tool will try to clock the device at. The clock range is different for different tools and devices. If there are restrictions, they will be stated in a message below the clock slider. Use external reset If checked the tool will pull the external reset line low when trying to connect to the device. JTAG Daisy chain settings Specify the JTAG daisy chain settings relevant to the device to program. Target is not part of a daisy chain. Select this option when the target device is not part of a daisy chain. Daisy chain-Manual. Allows you to manually configure the JTAG daisy chain in case you are programming in a system-on-board. • Devices before - specifies the number of devices preceding the target device. • Instruction bits before - specifies the total size of the instruction registers of all devices, preceding the target device. • Devices after - specifies the number of devices following the target device. • Instruction bits after - specifies the total size of the instruction registers of all devices, following the target device. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 129 Daisy chain-Auto. Automatically detects the devices in the JTAG daisy chain. Allows you to select the device in the JTAG daisy chain. Auto-detection is supported only for SAM devices. To accept the changes and configure the tool, press the Set button. PDI The PDI interface has only one setting – the PDI clock speed. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 130 PDI Clock is the maximum speed the tool will try to clock the device at. The clock range is different for different tools and devices. If there are restrictions, they will be stated in a message below the clock slider. To apply the changes and configure the tool, press the Set button. The clock cannot be adjusted on all tools, so an empty Interface settings page will be presented. 5.3. Tool Information Figure 5-4. Tool Info The Tool information page contains a number of useful tool parameters. Tool Name denotes the common name for the connected tool. Debug Host is the debug session's host IP address for the remote debugging case. If the tool is connected to your machine, then the loopback interface IP (127.0.0.1) will show. Debug Port is the port opened specifically for the remote debugging access to the debugging tool. The port is automatically assigned when Atmel Studio starts, and is usually 4711. Serial number - tool serial number. Connection - Microsoft Driver Framework Method's name used to connect the Tool on your PC. xxx version - Firmware, hardware and FPGA file versions are listed here. Using the link on the bottom of the dialog you can access extensive information on your tool online. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 131 5.4. Board Settings/Tool Settings Some tools (Power Debugger, STK500, STK600, QT600) have on-board voltage and clock generators. They can be controlled from the Board settings/Tool settings page. 5.4.1. Power Debugger The Power Debugger has a single voltage source and two channels of voltage/current measurement. Figure 5-5. Power Debugger Tool Settings The voltage output (VOUT) is adjusted by the slider, or by typing a voltage in the Generated text boxes below the slider. After adjusting the set-point, press the Write button to apply the changes. The value is then sent to the tool, and the measured value is read back. Press the Read button to read both the set-point (Generated) and the Measured values from the Power Debugger. Note:  There may be slight differences between the Generated and the Measured voltages. The output voltage range is 1.6V to 5.5V. The Channel A and Channel B measurements are snapshots of analog readings taken by the Power Debugger. The tool is optimized for real-time monitoring of voltage and current, and this snapshot is thus approximate. It does not perform calibration compensation, and readings are locked in the highest-current range. For best results, use the Atmel Data Visualizer. Note:  When no load is connected to a measurement channel, non-zero measurements can be expected. 5.4.2. STK600 The STK600 has three voltage sources and one clock generator. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 132 Figure 5-6. STK600 Board Settings The set-points of the three voltage sources (VTG, ARef0, and ARef1) are adjusted by the means of three sliders. It is also possible to type a voltage in the Generated text boxes below the sliders. When you drag the sliders, the text boxes will update. And when you type a value in the text box, the slider will move. After adjusting the set-points, press the Write button to apply the changes. The values are sent to the tool, and measure values are read back. Measurements are shown in the Measured row, and shown as blue columns as part of the slider controls. The measured values cannot be edited. Press the Read button to read both the set-point (Generated) and the Measured values from the STK600. Note:  What is the difference between the Generated and the Measured voltages? The generated voltage is the setting on the adjustable power supply, the measured voltage is the readout from the builtin volt meter. If the measured value is different from the generated voltage, this may indicate that the target circuitry draws a lot of current from the generator. Note:  If the VTARGET jumper on STK600 is not mounted, the measured voltage will be 0, unless an external voltage is applied to the VTARGET net. The Clock generator is also adjusted by dragging the slider or typing into the text box below. Press the Write button to apply the new value. 5.4.3. QT600 The QT600 has only one setting, the VTarget voltage. This voltage can be set to five fixed voltages: 0, 1.8, 2.7, 3.3, and 5V. Press the Write button to apply the changes. The actual VTarget value is read back automatically when pressing the Write button. It is also possible to read it back manually using the Read button. 5.4.4. STK500 STK500 has settings similar to the STK600, but only one Aref voltage and combined generated/measured values. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 133 5.5. Card Stack The STK600 uses a combination of routing and socket cards to let all AVR devices to be mounted. Given the device, only certain combinations of routing and socket cards are valid. The Card stack page has information about this. Figure 5-7. Card Stack The card stack page tells which cards are mounted on the STK600 and if they support the selected device. If they do match, a list of devices supported by that card combination is listed. If the mounted cards do not match, a list of suggested card combinations will be listed. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 134 5.6. Device Information Figure 5-8. Device Information The device information page contains basic information on the selected device. When the page is accessed, it will try to read the JTAG (or device) signature from the connected device. In the upper part of the dialog you can see the device name, its signature, the JTAG part identification number, and the device revision (extracted from the JTAG signature). In the lower part of the dialog you see the device variants and characteristics of each variant. Acceptable voltage range, followed by maximum operating clock speed, and the sizes of on-chip memories. The two links on the bottom of the dialog offer you to see a slightly more detailed device information in the purchase catalog online, or to download a complete datasheet of the target device. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 135 5.7. Oscillator Calibration Figure 5-9. Oscillator Calibration Oscillator Calibration Byte(s) for ATtiny and ATmega parts From the Advanced tab you can read the Oscillator Calibration Byte(s) for ATtiny and ATmega parts. The oscillator calibration byte is a value that can be written to the OSCCAL register found in selected devices, in order to tune the internal RC Oscillator to run as close to a chosen clock frequency as possible. Program The oscillator calibration byte is stored in the device during manufacturing and can not be erased or altered by the user. It is automatically transferred to the OSCCAL register during device start-up, or set during program initialization, depending on the device. On devices where the application sets it during program initialization, it must be transferred to FLASH or EEPROM first, using the programming dialog or the command line tools. Reading and Writing the Oscillator Calibration Byte for ATtiny and ATmega parts The calibration value is read from the storage in the device and shown in the Value text box by pressing the Read button. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 136 The calibration byte is programmed into FLASH or EEPROM memory by pressing the Write button. Memory type and address must be specified first. 5.8. Memories Figure 5-10. Memories Programming From the Memories tab you can access all the programmable memories on the target device. Memory is erased by first selecting the memory type and then clicking on the Erase button. Selecting Erase Chip will erase the entire contents of the device, including FLASH, EEPROM (unless the EESAVE fuse is programmed), and lock-bits, but not Userpages if the device contains this. Program To program a file into the device's Flash memory, write the full path and file name in the combo box in the flash section. Or, select the file by pressing the browse button (...). Now, press the Program button to program the file into the memory. If the Erase device before programming check box is checked, a chip erase operation will be performed before the programming operation starts. If the Verify device after programming check box is checked, the content will be verified after the programming operation is done. Some devices can also be programmed through a flashloader. This is mainly an advanced technique, but it will usually give a significant speedup in the programming speed. For devices where this is supported, a Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 137 checkbox will be shown named Program flash from RAM. If this box is checked, the base address of the location of the flashloader needs to be given. Verify To verify the flash content of the device, first select the file you want to verify against. Then press the Verify button. Read The contents of the Flash memory can be read out in Intel® hexadecimal file format, using the Read button. Pressing the Read button will bring up a dialog offering you to specify where the file will be saved. EEPROM The device's EEPROM memory can be programmed in a similar way. User Signatures The XMEGA device's User Signature memory can be programmed the same way. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 138 5.9. Fuse Programming Figure 5-11. Fuse Programming The Fuses page presents the fuses of the selected device. Press the Read button to read the current value of the fuses, and the Program button to write the current fuse setting to the device. Fuse settings are presented as check boxes or as drop down lists. Detailed information on which fuses are available in the different programming modes and their functions can be found in the device datasheet. Note that the selected fuse setting is not affected by erasing the device with a chip-erase cycle (i.e. pressing the Chip Erase button on the Memories page). Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 139 Fuse values can also be written directly into the fuse registers in the lower pane as hexadecimal values. Auto read If this check box is checked, the fuse settings will be read from the device each time you enter the fuse page. Verify after programming When this check box is checked, the settings will be verified after a programming operation is completed. The appearance of the fuse glyph describes whether the fuse information is up to date compared to the state of the device. the fuse value is up to date. i.e the same state as in the device. the fuse has been modified by the user and it is not yet programmed into the device. the fuse state is unknown, it has not been read from the device, nor modified by the user. 5.10. Lock Bits The lock bit page is similar to the fuse page. For usage, see section Fuse Programming. 5.11. Production Signatures The production signature page is only visible for AVR XMEGA devices and shows factory programmed data in the production signature row. It contains calibration data for functions such as oscillators and analog modules. The production signature row can not be written or erased. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 140 Figure 5-12. Production Signatures 5.12. Production Files The ELF production file format can hold the contents of both Flash, EEPROM, and User Signatures (XMEGA devices only) as well as the Fuse- Lockbit configuration in one single file. The format is based on the Executable and Linkable Format (ELF). The production file format is currently supported for tinyAVR, megaAVR, and XMEGA. See Creating ELF Files with Other Memory Types for description on how to configure the project in order to generate such files. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 141 Figure 5-13. Production Files Programming Program device from ELF production file: To program your device from an ELF file, you must first select a source file by typing its full path into the combo box, or by pressing the browse button . Depending on the contents of your file, check boxes for the different memory segments will be activated. It is possible to select one or several of the memory segments that the ELF production file contains. You can then program and verify the device with the content of these segments in one single operation. Select which memory segments you want to program ticking off the corresponding check boxes. Select the Erase memory before programming check box, if you want an erase operation to be performed before the programming operation. Note:  The erase memory operation will depend on the device selection. For tinyAVR and megaAVR, both Flash, EEPROM, and lockbits will be erased (chip erase) independent of which memories are selected, while for XMEGA only the selected memories will be erased. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 142 Select the Verify device after programming check box, if you want the contents to be verified after the programming operation is done. Select the Verify Device ID check box, if you want to verify the device id stored in the file (signature bytes) with the connected device. Now, press the Program button to program the file into the memory. You can verify the contents of the device against an ELF file by pressing the Verify button. The verification will only verify the contents of the selected memory segments. Figure 5-14. Production Files Creation Save to ELF production file: Prior to creating the ELF file, specify the input file path for FLASH, EEPROM, and Usersignature on the production file tab. Then configure the Fuse and Lockbits on the corresponding tab and program it. The Fuse and Lockbits, which are programmed in the device will be taken as input while creating ELF file. Back on the production file tab, press the "Save" button" to generate the ELF file. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 143 You must specify which segments are to be present in the production ELF file by ticking the corresponding check boxes. 5.13. Security The security bit allows the entire chip to be locked from external JTAG or other debug access for code security. Once set, the only way to clear the security bit is through the Chip Erase command. Figure 5-15. Security Page To check the state of the security bit, press the Read button on the Security page of the programming dialog. The value should now read Cleared or Set. Set meaning that the security bit is set, and Cleared meaning that it is not set. If the Auto Read check box is ticked off, the Read operation will be performed automatically when the Security page is opened. To set the security bit, simply press the Set button on the Security page of the programming dialog. Now the device is locked for all further JTAG or aWire access except for the Chip Erase command. Locked device When the security bit is set, the device is locked for most external debug access. Attempts to program or read any memories or fuses, will cause an error message to appear. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 144 Figure 5-16. Security Bit Error To unset the security bit, issue the Chip Erase command. This can be done from the Memories page, see Memories. 5.14.

New firmware may provide support for new devices and bugfixes. 6.5.2. Automatic Upgrade Atmel Studio will automatically upgrade the tool's firmware when needed. A potential firmware upgrade is triggered once you start using a tool. Examples: the first time you launch a debug session or the first time you select the tool in the Device Programming dialog. The tool cannot be used by Atmel Studio if the user chooses not to upgrade. You can also check for firmware upgrades by using the Available Tools view (View → Available Atmel Tools). Right click on a tool and select Upgrade. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 154 For a description on how to do manual upgrade, downgrade and upgrade with a custom firmware image, see Manual Upgrade. 6.5.3. Manual Upgrade Atmel Studio includes a command line utility called atfw.exe which can be used to do manual upgrade of most Atmel tools. atfw.exe is installed in the atbackend subfolder. atfw.exe can be used to: • Perform upgrade from a script • Upgrade using a custom firmware file • Read out firmware version For details on how to upgrade using this utility, execute atfw.exe -h. Note:  If a tool is locked in firmware upgrade mode, and normal reset does not restore normal operation, a forced firmware upgrade should reset the tool to a working state. To do a firmware upgrade on a tool already in upgrade mode, invoke atfw the same way as normal firmware upgrade. Some warnings may be displayed as the tool is unable to switch the tool to upgrade mode, but should proceed with the upgrade. If a tool listing is done, the tool will have a name that is related to the mode it is in. atfw should however be invoked with the tool name as it is presented to the user in normal operation. 6.6. Find and Replace Window You can use the Find and Replace window to search for text strings, expressions, or entity names within the code of your documents. To access this window, from the Edit menu, click Find and Replace, and then select one of the options listed.

Enables debugging symbols and debugging source insertion Option Description 7.3. ARM GNU Toolchain Options 7.3.1. ARM/GNU Common Options • Thumb(-mthumb)/Arm(-marm) Allows you to select the processor mode. 7.3.2. Compiler Options 7.3.2.1. Preprocessor • -nostdinc Do not search the standard system directories for header files. Only the directories you have specified with -I options (and the directory of the current file, if appropriate) are searched. • -E Stop after the preprocessing stage; do not run the compiler proper. The output is in the form of preprocessed source code, which is sent to the standard output. Input files which don't require preprocessing are ignored. 7.3.2.2. Symbols • -D • -D name Predefine name as a macro, with definition 1. Eg: • -D name=value Predefine name as a macro, with definition value. The contents of definition are tokenized and processed as if they appeared during translation phase three in a #define directive. In particular, the definition will be truncated by embedded newline characters. • -U Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 168 Cancel any previous definition of name, either built in or provided with a -D option. -D and -U options are processed in the order they are given on the command line. All -imacros file and - include file options are processed after all -D and -U options. 7.3.2.3. Directories • -I dir Add the directory dir to the list of directories to be searched for header files. Directories named by -I are searched before the standard system include directories. If the directory dir is a standard system include directory, the option is ignored to ensure that the default search order for system directories and the special treatment of system headers are not defeated . 7.3.2.4. Optimization • There is a general switch ‘-O’ which specifies the level of optimization used when generating the code: – -Os Signal that the generated code should be optimized for code size. The compiler will not care about the execution performance of the generated code. – -O0 No optimization. GCC will generate code that is easy to debug but slower and larger than with the incremental optimization levels outlined below. – -O1 or -O This will optimize the code for both speed and size. Most statements will be executed in the same order as in the C/C++ code and most variables can be found in the generated code. This makes the code quite suitable for debugging. This is default. – -O2 Turn on most optimizations in GCC except for some optimizations that might drastically increase code size. This also enables instruction scheduling, which allows instructions to be shuffled around to minimize CPU stall cycles because of data hazards and dependencies, for CPU architectures that might benefit from this. Overall this option makes the code quite small and fast, but hard to debug. – -O3 Turn on some extra performance optimizations that might drastically increase code size but increase performance compared to the -O2 and -O1 optimization levels. This includes performing function inlining • Other optimization options – -ffunction-sections – -fdata-sections Place each function or data item into its own section in the output file if the target supports arbitrary sections. The name of the function or the name of the data item determines the section's name in the output file. Only use these options when there are significant benefits from doing so. When you specify these options, the assembler and linker will create larger object and executable files and will also be slower. – -funroll-loops Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 169 Perform loop unrolling when iteration count is known. If code size is not a concern then some extra performance might be obtained by making gcc unroll loops by using the ‘-funroll-loops’’ switch in addition to the ‘-O3’ switch. 7.3.2.5. Debugging • -g level (Debugging level) • -g1 It produces minimal information, enough for making backtraces in parts of the program that you don't plan to debug. This includes descriptions of functions and external variables, but no information about local variables and no line numbers. • -g2 It is the default debugging level. • -g3 It includes extra information, such as all the macro definitions present in the program. Some debuggers support macro expansion when you use -g3. 7.3.2.6. Warnings • -Wall Show all warnings. • -Werror Show warnings as errors. • -fsyntax-only Check the code for syntax errors, but don't do anything beyond that. • -pedantic Issue all the warnings demanded by strict ISO C, reject all programs that use forbidden extensions, and some other programs that do not follow ISO C. Valid ISO C programs should compile properly with or without this option (though a rare few will require -ansi or a -std option specifying the required version of ISO C). However, without this option, certain GNU extensions and traditional C features are supported as well. With this option, they are rejected. • -pedantic-errors Pedantic warnings are produced as errors. • -w Inhibit all warning messages. 7.3.2.7. Miscellaneous • -v Verbose option. It prints (on standard error output) the commands executed to run the stages of compilation. Also print the version number of the compiler driver program and of the preprocessor and the compiler proper. • -ansi Support ANSI programs. This turns off certain features of GCC that are incompatible with ISO C90 (when compiling C code). For the C compiler, it disables recognition of C++ style // comments as well as the inline keyword. The -ansi option does not cause non-ISO programs to be rejected gratuitously. For that, -pedantic is required in addition to -ansi. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 170 7.3.3. Linker Options 7.3.3.1. General • -Wl,option Pass option as an option to the linker. If option contains commas, it is split into multiple options at the commas. You can use this syntax to pass an argument to the option. For example, `-Wl,- Map,output.map' passes `-Map output.map' to the linker. • -Wl, -nostartfiles Do not use the standard system startup files when linking. The standard system libraries are used normally, unless -nostdlib or -nodefaultlibs is used. • -Wl,-nodefault Do not use the standard system libraries when linking. Only the libraries you specify will be passed to the linker, options specifying linkage of the system libraries, such as -static-libgcc or - shared-libgcc, will be ignored. The standard start-up files are used normally, unless - nostartfiles is used. The compiler may generate calls to memcmp, memset, memcpy and memmove. These entries are usually resolved by entries in libc. These entry points should be supplied through some other mechanism when this option is specified. • -Wl,-nostdlib Do not use the standard system start-up files or libraries when linking. One of the standard libraries bypassed by -nostdlib and -nodefaultlibs is libgcc.a, a library of internal subroutines that GCC uses to overcome shortcomings of particular machines, or special needs for some languages. In most cases, you need libgcc.a even when you want to avoid other standard libraries. In other words, when you specify -nostdlib or -nodefaultlibs you should usually specify -lgcc as well. This ensures that you have no unresolved references to internal GCC library subroutines. • -Wl,-s Remove all symbol table and relocation information from the executable. • -Wl,-static On systems that support dynamic linking, this prevents linking with the shared libraries. On other systems, this option has no effect. • -Wl,-Map Generates Map file. 7.3.3.2. Libraries • -Wl,-llibrary Search the library named library when linking. It makes a difference where in the command you write this option; the linker searches and processes libraries and object files in the order they are specified. Thus, foo.o -lz bar.o searches library z after file foo.o but before bar.o. The linker searches a standard list of directories for the library, which is actually a file named liblibrary.a. The linker then uses this file as if it had been specified precisely by name. • -Wl, Ldir Add directory dir to the list of directories to be searched for -l. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 171 7.3.3.3. Optimization • -Wl, --gc-sections Garbage collect unused sections. Enable garbage collection of unused input sections. It is ignored on targets that do not support this option. The default behavior (of not performing this garbage collection) can be restored by specifying `--no-gc-sections' on the command line. `--gc-sections' decides which input sections are used by examining symbols and relocations. The section containing the entry symbol and all sections containing symbols undefined on the command-line will be kept, as will sections containing symbols referenced by dynamic objects. • -funsafe-math-optimizations Enable unsafe math optimizations. • -ffast-math Enable fast math • -fpic Generate position independent code. 7.3.4. Assembler Options • -I Use this option to add a path to the list of directories as searches for files specified in .include directives (see .include). You may use -I as many times as necessary to include a variety of paths. The current working directory is always searched first; after that, as searches any `-I' directories in the same order as they were specified (left to right) on the command line. • -v Announce version. • Debugging(-g) Use this option to enable the debug level. 7.3.5. Preprocessing Assembler Options • -I Use this option to add a path to the list of directories as searches for files specified in .include directives (see .include). You may use -I as many times as necessary to include a variety of paths. The current working directory is always searched first; after that, as searches any `-I' directories in the same order as they were specified (left to right) on the command line. • -v Announce version. • Debugging(Wa,-g) Use this option to enable the debug level. 7.3.6. Archiver Options • -r Replace existing or insert new file(s) into the archive. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 172 7.4.

, for example boot=0xff) The address must be given as a hexadecimal number prefixed with 0x. It is interpreted as a word address for flash memory and a byte addresse for SRAM and EEPROM memory. Figure 7-3. Memory settings Notes about the AVR port of gcc The AVR is a Harvard architecture CPU. This means that it separates instruction memory and data memory. The gcc was originally designed to support Von Neumann architectures which define a single storage structure to hold both instructions and data. This dichotomy is solved by a series of nifty tricks in the AVR port of gcc, of which three should be noted: • The .text segment starts at 0x0 • The .data segment starts at 0x800000 • The .eeprom segment starts at 0x810000 These peculiarities have been abstracted away by the GUI , but users will see the truth when building projects with relocated segments. A relocation definition for flash will be passed to the GNU linker via avr-gcc as the option: • -Wl,-section-start=bootloader=0x1fc00 Note that the address has been multiplied by 2 to get the byte address. A relocation definition for the .data section will be passed as: Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 177 • -Wl,-section-start=anewdatasegment=0x800 AVR Assembler Options Table 7-8. AVR Assembler Options Option Description Optimization options Assembler flags (form field) Miscellaneous assembler flags Include path (form field) You can add, prioritize or edit path to the architecture and platform specific included files here -v Announce version in the assembler output Debugging options Debugging (drop down menu) None, -Wa -g Enables debugging symbol and debugging source insertion 7.6. Commonly Used Options 7.6.1. Compiler Options 7.6.1.1. General • -funsigned-char Each kind of machine has a default for what char should be. It is either like unsigned char by default or like signed char by default. This option says that the default char type is unsigned. • -funsigned-bitfields These options control whether a bit-field is signed or unsigned, when the declaration does not use either signed or unsigned. This options says that the default bitfield type is unsigned. 7.6.1.2. Preprocessor • -nostdinc Do not search the standard system directories for header files. Only the directories you have specified with -I options (and the directory of the current file, if appropriate) are searched. • -E Stop after the preprocessing stage; do not run the compiler proper. The output is in the form of preprocessed source code, which is sent to the standard output. Input files which don't require preprocessing are ignored. 7.6.1.3. Symbols • -D • -D name Predefine name as a macro, with definition 1. E.g.: • -D name=value Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 178 Predefine name as a macro, with definition value. The contents of definition are tokenized and processed as if they appeared during translation phase three in a #define directive. In particular, the definition will be truncated by embedded newline characters. • -U Cancel any previous definition of name, either built in or provided with a -D option. -D and -U options are processed in the order they are given on the command line. All -imacros file and - include file options are processed after all -D and -U options. 7.6.1.4. Directories • -I dir Add the directory dir to the list of directories to be searched for header files. Directories named by -I are searched before the standard system include directories. If the directory dir is a standard system include directory, the option is ignored to ensure that the default search order for system directories and the special treatment of system headers are not defeated . 7.6.1.5. Optimization • There is a general switch ‘-O’ which specifies the level of optimization used when generating the code: – -Os Signal that the generated code should be optimized for code size. The compiler will not care about the execution performance of the generated code. – -O0 No optimization. This is the default. GCC will generate code that is easy to debug but slower and larger than with the incremental optimization levels outlined below. – -O1 or -O This will optimize the code for both speed and size. Most statements will be executed in the same order as in the C/C++ code and most variables can be found in the generated code. This makes the code quite suitable for debugging. – -O2 Turn on most optimizations in GCC except for some optimizations that might drastically increase code size. This also enables instruction scheduling, which allows instructions to be shuffled around to minimize CPU stall cycles because of data hazards and dependencies, for CPU architectures that might benefit from this. Overall this option makes the code quite small and fast, but hard to debug. – -O3 Turn on some extra performance optimizations that might drastically increase code size but increase performance compared to the -O2 and -O1 optimization levels. This includes performing function inlining • Other optimization options – -ffunction-sections – -fdata-sections Place each function or data item into its own section in the output file if the target supports arbitrary sections. The name of the function or the name of the data item determines the section's name in the output file. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 179 Only use these options when there are significant benefits from doing so. When you specify these options, the assembler and linker will create larger object and executable files and will also be slower. – -funroll-loops If code size is not a concern then some extra performance might be obtained by making gcc unroll loops by using the ‘-funroll-loops’’ switch in addition to the ‘-O3’ switch. 7.6.1.6. Debugging • -g level (Debugging level) • -g1 It produces minimal information, enough for making back-traces in parts of the program that you don't plan to debug. This includes descriptions of functions and external variables, but no information about local variables and no line numbers. • -g2 It is the default debugging level. • -g3 It includes extra information, such as all the macro definitions present in the program. Some debuggers support macro expansion when you use -g3. 7.6.1.7. Warnings • -Wall Show all warnings. • -Werror Show warnings as errors. • -fsyntax-only Check the code for syntax errors, but don't do anything beyond that. • -pedantic Issue all the warnings demanded by strict ISO C, reject all programs that use forbidden extensions, and some other programs that do not follow ISO C. Valid ISO C programs should compile properly with or without this option (though a rare few will require -ansi or a -std option specifying the required version of ISO C). However, without this option, certain GNU extensions and traditional C features are supported as well. With this option, they are rejected. • -pedantic-errors Pedantic warnings are produced as errors. • -w Inhibit all warning messages. 7.6.1.8. Miscellaneous • -v Verbose option. It prints (on standard error output) the commands executed to run the stages of compilation. Also print the version number of the compiler driver program and of the preprocessor and the compiler proper. • -ansi Support ANSI programs. This turns off certain features of GCC that are incompatible with ISO C90 (when compiling C code). For the C compiler, it disables recognition of C++ style // comments as Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 180 well as the inline keyword. The -ansi option does not cause non-ISO programs to be rejected gratuitously. For that, -pedantic is required in addition to -ansi. 7.6.2. Linker Options 7.6.2.1. General • -Wl,option Pass option as an option to the linker. If option contains commas, it is split into multiple options at the commas. You can use this syntax to pass an argument to the option. For example, `-Wl,- Map,output.map' passes `-Map output.map' to the linker. • -Wl, -nostartfiles Do not use the standard system startup files when linking. The standard system libraries are used normally, unless -nostdlib or -nodefaultlibs is used. • -Wl,-nodefault Do not use the standard system libraries when linking. Only the libraries you specify will be passed to the linker, options specifying linkage of the system libraries, such as -static-libgcc or - shared-libgcc, will be ignored. The standard start-up files are normally used, unless - nostartfiles is used. The compiler may generate calls to memcmp, memset, memcpy, and memmove. These entries are usually resolved by entries in libc. These entry points should be supplied through some other mechanism when this option is specified. • -Wl,-nostdlib Do not use the standard system start-up files or libraries when linking. One of the standard libraries bypassed by -nostdlib and -nodefaultlibs is libgcc.a, a library of internal subroutines that GCC uses to overcome shortcomings of particular machines, or special needs for some languages. In most cases, you need libgcc.a even when you want to avoid other standard libraries. In other words, when you specify -nostdlib or -nodefaultlibs you should usually specify -lgcc as well. This ensures that you have no unresolved references to internal GCC library subroutines. • -Wl,-s Remove all symbol table and relocation information from the executable. • -Wl,-static On systems that support dynamic linking, this prevents linking with the shared libraries. On other systems, this option has no effect. 7.6.2.2. Libraries • -Wl,-llibrary Search the library named library when linking. It makes a difference where in the command you write this option; the linker searches and processes libraries and object files in the order they are specified. Thus, foo.o -lz bar.o searches library z after file foo.o but before bar.o. The linker searches a standard list of directories for the library, which is actually a file named liblibrary.a. The linker then uses this file as if it had been specified precisely by name. • -Wl, Ldir Add directory dir to the list of directories to be searched for -l. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 181 7.6.2.3. Optimization • -Wl, --gc-sections Garbage collect unused sections. Enable garbage collection of unused input sections. It is ignored on targets that do not support this option. The default behavior (of not performing this garbage collection) can be restored by specifying `--no-gc-sections' on the command line. `--gc-sections' decides which input sections are used by examining symbols and relocations. The section containing the entry symbol and all sections containing symbols undefined on the command-line will be kept, as will sections containing symbols referenced by dynamic objects. • --rodata-writable Put read-only data in writable data section. 7.6.3. Assembler Options • -I Use this option to add a path to the list of directories as searches for files specified in .include directives (see .include). You may use -I as many times as necessary to include a variety of paths. The current working directory is always searched first; after that, as searches any `-I' directories in the same order as they were specified (left to right) on the command line. • -v Announce version. 7.7. 8-bit Specific AVR GCC Command Line Options This section describes the options specific to AVR 8-bit Toolchain. 7.7.1. AVR C Compiler 7.7.1.1. General • -mcall-prologues Functions prologues/epilogues are expanded as call to appropriate subroutines. Code size will be smaller. • -mno-interrupts Change the stack pointer without disabling interrupts. Generated code is not compatible with hardware interrupts. Code size will be smaller. • -mno-tablejump Do not generate table jump instructions (removed from gcc 4.5.1 coz same as -fno-jump-tables). • -msize Output instruction sizes to the asm file (removed from avr-gcc coz same as using -dp switch which prints the instruction length). 7.7.1.2. Optimization • -fpack-struct Without a value specified, pack all structure members together without holes. When a value is specified (which must be a small power of two), pack structure members according to this value, representing the maximum alignment (that is, objects with default alignment requirements larger than this will be output potentially unaligned at the next fitting location). Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 182 • -fshort-enums Allocate to an enum type only as many bytes as it needs for the declared range of possible values. Specifically, the enum type will be equivalent to the smallest integer type which has enough room. • -mshort-calls Use rjmp/rcall (limited range) on >8K devices. 7.7.1.3. Miscellaneous • -save-temps Do not delete temporary files. Store the usual "temporary" intermediate files permanently; place them in the current directory and name them based on the source file. Thus, compiling foo.c with -c -save-temps would produce files foo.i and foo.s, as well as foo.o. This creates a preprocessed foo.i output file even though the compiler now normally uses an integrated preprocessor. 7.7.2. AVR C Linker 7.7.2.1. Optimization • -mrelax Relax branches. Linker relaxing is enabled in the linker by passing the ‘—relax’ option to the linker. Using GCC as a frontend for the linker, this option is automatically passed to the linker when using ‘-O2’ or ‘-O3’ or explicitly using the ‘-mrelax’ option. When this option is used, GCC outputs pseudo instructions like lda.w, call etc. The linker can then, if the input file is tagged as relaxable, convert a pseudo instruction into the best possible instruction with regards to the final symbol address. 7.8. 32-bit Specific AVR GCC Command Line Options 7.8.1. Optimization • -mfast-float The switch, causes fast, non-ieee compliant versions of some of the optimized AVR 32-bit floatingpoint library functions to be used. This switch is by default enabled if the ‘-ffast-math’ switch is used. • -funsafe-math-optimizations Allow optimizations for floating-point arithmetic that (a) assume that arguments and results are valid and (b) may violate IEEE or ANSI standards. When used at link-time, it may include libraries or start-up files that change the default FPU control word or other similar optimizations. This option is not turned ON by any ‘-O’ option since it can result in incorrect output for programs which depend on an exact implementation of IEEE or ISO rules/specifications for math functions. It may, however, yield faster code for programs that do not require the guarantees of these specifications. Enables ‘- fno-signed-zeros’, ‘-fno-trapping-math’, ‘-fassociative-math’ and ‘-freciprocal-math’. • -ffast-math This option causes the preprocessor macro __FAST_MATH__ to be defined. This option is not turned on by any ‘-O’ option since it can result in incorrect output for programs which depend on an exact implementation of IEEE or ISO rules/specifications for math functions. It may, however, yield faster code for programs that do not require the guarantees of these specifications. It sets ‘-fnomath-errno’, ‘-funsafe-math-optimizations’, ‘-ffinite-math-only’, ‘-fno-rounding-math’, ‘-fno-signalingnans’ and ‘-fcx-limited-range’. • -fpic Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 183 Generate position-independent code (PIC) suitable for use in a shared library, if supported for the target machine. Such code accesses all constant addresses through a global offset table (GOT). The dynamic loader resolves the GOT entries when the program starts (the dynamic loader is not part of GCC; it is part of the operating system). If the GOT size for the linked executable exceeds a machine-specific maximum size, you get an error message from the linker indicating that ‘-fpic’ does not work; in that case, recompile with ‘-fPIC’ instead. (These maximums are 8k on the SPARC and 32k on the m68k and RS/6000. The 386 has no such limit.) Position-independent code requires special support, and therefore works only on certain machines. For the 386, GCC supports PIC for System V but not for the Sun 386i. Code generated for the IBM RS/6000 is always positionindependent. When this flag is set, the macros __pic__ and __PIC__ are defined to 1. • -mno-init-got Do not initialize GOT register before using it when compiling PIC code. • -masm-addr-pseudos This option is enabled by default and causes GCC to output the pseudo instructions call and lda.w for calling direct functions and loading symbol addresses respectively. It can be turned OFF by specifying the switch ‘-mno-asm-addr-pseudos’. The advantage of using these pseudo-instructions is that the linker can optimize these instructions at link time if linker relaxing is enabled. The ‘- mrelax’ option can be passed to GCC to signal to the assembler that it should generate a relaxable object file. • -mforce-double-align Force double-word alignment for double-word memory accesses. • -mimm-in-const-pool When GCC needs to move immediate values not suitable for a single move instruction into a register, it has two possible choices; it can put the constant into the code somewhere near the current instruction (the constant pool) and then use a single load instruction to load the value or it can use two immediate instruction for loading the value directly without using a memory load. If a load from the code memory is faster than executing two simple one-cycle immediate instructions, then putting these immediate values into the constant pool will be most optimal for speed. This is often true for MCU architectures implementing an instruction cache, whereas architectures with code executing from internal flash will probably need several cycles for loading values from code memory. By default GCC will use the constant pool for AVR 32-bit products with an instruction cache and two immediate instructions for flash-based MCUs. This can be overridden by using the option ‘-mimm-in-const-pool’ or its negated option ‘-mno-imm-in-const-pool’. • -muse-rodata-sections By default GCC will output read-only data into the code (.text) section. If the code memory is slow it might be more optimal for performance to put read-only data into another faster memory, if available. This can be done by specifying the switch ‘-muse-rodata-section’, which makes GCC put read-only data into the .rodata section. Then the linker file can specify where the content of the .rodata section should be placed. For systems running code from flash this might however mean that the read-only data must be placed in flash and then copied over to another memory at start-up, which means that extra memory usage is required with this scheme. 7.8.2. Debugging • -pg Generate extra code to write profile information suitable for the analysis program gprof. You must use this option when compiling the source files you want data about, and you must also use it when linking. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 184 • -p Generate extra code to write profile information suitable for the analysis program prof. You must use this option when compiling the source files you want data about, and you must also use it when linking. 7.8.3. AVR32 C Linker 7.8.3.1. Optimization • -mfast-float Enable fast floating-point library. Enabled by default if the -funsafe-math-optimizations switch is specified. • -funsafe-math-optimizations Allow optimizations for floating-point arithmetic that (a) assume that arguments and results are valid and (b) may violate IEEE or ANSI standards. When used at link-time, it may include libraries or start-up files that change the default FPU control word or other similar optimizations. This option is not turned on by any ‘-O’ option since it can result in incorrect output for programs which depend on an exact implementation of IEEE or ISO rules/specifications for math functions. It may, however, yield faster code for programs that do not require the guarantees of these specifications. Enables ‘- fno-signed-zeros’, ‘-fno-trapping-math’, ‘-fassociative-math’, and ‘-freciprocal-math’. The default is ‘- fno-unsafe-math-optimizations’. • -ffast-math This option causes the preprocessor macro __FAST_MATH__ to be defined. This option is not turned on by any ‘-O’ option since it can result in incorrect output for programs which depend on an exact implementation of IEEE or ISO rules/specifications for math functions. It may, however, yield faster code for programs that do not require the guarantees of these specifications. It sets ‘-fnomath-errno’, ‘-funsafe-math-optimizations’, ‘-ffinite-math-only’, ‘-fno-rounding-math’, ‘-fno-signalingnans’, and ‘-fcx-limited-range’. • -fpic Generate position-independent code (PIC) suitable for use in a shared library, if supported for the target machine. Such code accesses all constant addresses through a global offset table (GOT). The dynamic loader resolves the GOT entries when the program starts (the dynamic loader is not part of GCC; it is part of the operating system). If the GOT size for the linked executable exceeds a machine-specific maximum size, you get an error message from the linker indicating that ‘-fpic’ does not work; in that case, recompile with ‘-fPIC’ instead. (These maximums are 8k on the SPARC and 32k on the m68k and RS/6000. The 386 has no such limit.) Position-independent code requires special support, and therefore works only on certain machines. For the 386, GCC supports PIC for System V but not for the Sun 386i. Code generated for the IBM RS/6000 is always positionindependent. When this flag is set, the macros __pic__ and __PIC__ are defined to 1. • -Wl,--direct-data Allow direct data references when optimizing. To enable the linker to convert an lda.w into an immediate move instruction, i.e. linker relaxing, the option ‘—direct-data’ must be given to the linker. 7.8.3.2. Miscellaneous • -Xlinker[option] Pass option as an option to the linker. You can use this to supply system-specific linker options which GCC does not know how to recognize. If you want to pass an option that takes a separate argument, you must use -Xlinker twice, once for the option and once for the argument. For example, to pass -assert definitions, you must write `-Xlinker -assert -Xlinker definitions'. It does not Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 185 work to write -Xlinker "-assert definitions", because this passes the entire string as a single argument, which is not what the linker expects. When using the GNU linker, it is usually more convenient to pass arguments to linker options using the option=value syntax than as separate arguments. For example, you can specify `-Xlinker -Map=output.map' rather than `-Xlinker -Map - Xlinker output.map'. Other linkers may not support this syntax for command-line options. 7.9. Binutils The following AVR 32-bit GNU Binutils are available: • avr32-ld- GNU linker. • avr32-as - GNU assembler. • avr32-addr2line - Converts addresses into file-names and line numbers. • avr32-ar - A utility for creating, modifying and extracting from archives. • avr32-c++filt - Filter to demangle encoded C++ symbols. • avr32-nm - Lists symbols from object files. • avr32-objcopy - Copies and translates object files. • avr32-objdump - Displays information from object files. • avr32-ranlib - Generates an index to the contents of an archive. • avr32-readelf - Displays information from any ELF format object file. • avr32-size - Lists the section sizes of an object or archive file. • avr32-strings - Lists printable strings from files. • avr32-strip - Discards symbols. For more information about each util, use the built in help command: avr32- -- help. • For general information about GNU Assembler (GAS), GNU linker and other binutils, visit the official GNU Binutils web site. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 186 8. Extending Atmel Studio Atmel Studio includes a tool named Extension Manager that lets you add, remove, enable, and disable Atmel Studio extensions. To open Extension Manager, on the Tools menu, click Extension Manager. Extension developers are advised to uninstall previous versions of extensions in progress, and uninstall or disable potentially conflicting extensions to prevent conflicts during development. 8.1. Extension Manager UI The Extension Manager window is divided into three panes. The left pane lets you select by group: installed extensions and new extensions from the online gallery. Figure 8-1. Extension Manager The extensions are displayed in the middle pane. You can sort the list by name or author from the combobox above the list. When you select an extension in the middle pane, information about it appears in the right pane. Extension installed by the current user can be uninstalled or disabled, extensions distributed with Atmel Studio cannot be changed. The Extension Manager window also includes a search box. Depending on the selection in the left pane, you can search installed extensions, the online gallery, or available updates. Online Gallery Extension Manager can install extensions from the Atmel Studio Gallery. These extensions may be packages, templates, or other components that add functionality to Atmel Studio. To get started with the extension manager check the Installing New Extensions in Atmel Studio. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 187 Extension Types Extension Manager supports extensions in the VSIX package format, which may include project templates, item templates, toolbox items, Managed Extension Framework (MEF) components, and VSPackages. Extension Manager can also download and install MSI-based extensions, but it cannot enable or disable them. Atmel Studio Gallery contains both VSIX and MSI extensions. Dependency Handling If a user tries to install an extension that has dependencies, the installer verifies that those dependencies are already installed. If they are not installed, Extension Manager shows the user a list of dependencies that must be installed before the extension can be installed. Installing Without Using Extension Manager Extensions that have been packaged in .vsix files may be available in locations other than the Atmel Studio Gallery. Extension Manager cannot detect these files. However, you can install a .vsix file by double-clicking it and then following the setup instructions. When the extension is installed, you can use Extension Manager to enable it, disable it, or remove it. 8.2. Registering at Atmel Extension Gallery In order to download extensions, registering at the Atmel Extension Gallery is required. The first time Updates are accessed or a download is invoked, this login screen is displayed: Figure 8-2. Extension Manager Registration Follow the instructions on the screen.

Overview of QTouch Composer and Library The Atmel QTouch Composer and library allows you to easily and seamlessly develop capacitive touch functionality for your application. This simplifies the design process by tying together the tools required to edit the code in Atmel Studio and tune the touch design. QTouch Composer, formerly called QTouch Studio, is fully integrated in Atmel Studio 6 as an extension. QTouch Library is a software framework extension to Atmel studio, which allows you to add touch functionality on various Atmel devices. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 193 8.5.1. Installation 1. Start Atmel Studio. 2. Go to Tools → Extension Manager → Online Gallery. 3. Select QTouch Library and click “Download” and then install it. 4. Select QTouch Composer and click “Download” and then install it. 5. Click “Restart Now” button in the Extension manager window. 6. After starting Atmel Studio, go to Tools → Extension Manager. Check QTouch library and QTouch composer are listed and status is enabled. 8.5.2.

The “QTouch Project Builder” wizard is opened, which will guide through the steps involved in creating a project. Sample QTouch Project creation video here. 8.5.3. Overview of QTouch Analyzer QTouch Analyzer reads and interprets touch data sent from QTouch kit into different views. The Analyzer is separated into Kit View, Kit/Sensor Properties, Sensor Data, Trace View, Power View, and Graph view. When touch kit is connected and Atmel Studio is opened, QTouch Analyzer window opens up and connection information is updated. The Virtual Kit view shows touch events such as button press, wheel, and slider use. The image is updated based on the touch data read from the connected Touch Kit. The Kit/Sensor Properties view allows you to view and modify the kit/sensor configuration options. The Sensor Data View provides touch data information of the currently connected kit. The Graph View displays one or more selected touch data's on a graph. Graph shall display most recent touch data. The data set to show can be selected from the data set list at the right side of the view. The datasets are displayed in tabbed pages representing the Signals, Deltas, References, and Wheel/Slider positions. Each data set selection list follows normal selection convention; click on an item in the list to selected that one item. To select a continuous range of items first click on first item then hold down the SHIFT key and select the last item in the range. Multiple items can also be selected one at a time by holding down the CTRL key prior to selecting the next item in the list. In the last case the items need not be in a continuous range. Using CTRL select method also allows deselection of individual items from a selection of multiple items. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 195 The Trace contains one or more data series with touch data in a chart. The trace keeps all historical data of one single reading session (pressing start and stop reading), and the data can be saved in a separate file and opened again later. 8.6. Scripting Extensions Atmel Studio provides some scripting hooks that can be executed automatically by the IDE. These extensions are mainly written in Python, and will execute for instance when a breakpoint is hit, when an expression is evaluated or when the program is being reset. 8.6.1. Debug Scripting The debug scripting interface is function based and depends on certain, named functions to be defined in a Python® file. The function will then be called when the corresponding event is occurring inside Atmel Studio. Attention:  Error checking is kept at a minimum for the functions exported into the Python environment so that the time used on initialization during normal sessions are kept low. This means that there are many ways to crash Atmel Studio through this interface. To load a Python file, place a file named debughooks.py in the Debug folder of your project, next to the ELF file, or one folder up where the project file is. It is also possible to place this file inside the Atmel Studio installation directory to make the script load for all projects. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 196 Note:  The Python file is loaded and compiled when a project is launched, so changes to the Python file during a debug session will not be active until the next debug session is started. The Python file is running in an IronPython context, with full access to .NET and a Python 2.7 runtime. See http:// ironpython.net/documentation/dotnet/ for more information of the runtime. The functions that Atmel Studio will try to load is shown below with its function signature. def should_process_breakpoint(studio_interface, breakpoint_address, breakpoint_id, obj): """ Called to determine if a breakpoint should cause Atmel Studio to enter debug mode. If this function returns False, Atmel Studio will not break at the breakpoint. """ return True def has_processed_breakpoint(studio_interface, breakpoint_address, breakpoint_id, obj): """ This function is called if Atmel Studio is breaking at a breakpoint. The GUI is now in halted mode. """ pass def on_reset(studio_interface, reset_address): """ This function is called when the target is reset. The address where the reset went to is 'reset_address'. """ pass def on_eval_expr(studio_interface, expression): """ This function is called for each expression that is evaluated in Atmel Studio. This includes the watch window and other windows that show data from the target. Pass the 'expression' string through to evaluate it, or return another expression to be evaluated to override the expression. This override is not visible in the Atmel Studio GUI. """ return expression Note:  Atmel Studio expects all these functions to be available if the script has been found and is loaded correctly. If for instance the should_process_breakpoint is undefined, breakpoints might start to misbehave as the return value of a undefined function is in itself undefined. In the code shown above, the main interface back into the Atmel Studio is the studio_interface object. This object contains some functions to show messages and do target interaction. The Print function in the studio_interface object is used to show text in the output window inside Atmel Studio. The function takes two arguments, the string to print and the name of the tab in the output window. The example below prints all evaluated expression to the “Expressions” tab. def on_eval_expr(studio_interface, expression): studio_interface.Print("Evaluating {}".format(expression), "Expressions") return expression Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 197 Note:  The severity level of text sent through Print is set to INFO, which means that the output may be masked by Atmel Studio. To lower the threshold, go to Tools > Tools, select Status Management, and set the Display Threshold to INFO. The ExecStmt function in the studio_interface object is used to execute statements in the debugger. This can for instance be used to set variables. See MSDN Debugger.ExecuteStatement Method for more information. The WriteMemory and ReadMemory are symmetric functions for reading and writing memory on the target. It is important to use a System.Array[System.Byte] object to pass the data between the script and Atmel Studio. import System def should_process_breakpoint(studio_interface, breakpoint_address, breakpoint_id, obj): vals = System.Array[System.Byte]([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]) studio_interface.WriteMemory(data=vals, adr=0, type="eeprom") ret = studio_interface.ReadMemory(adr=0, type="eeprom", count=9) studio_interface.Print("ret == vals => {!r}".format(ret == vals), "Python") return True The CalcNumericValue is a shorthand for the CalcValue call. It will return the numeric value of the symbol or the provided default value if the function fails to retrieve the value of the symbol. def should_process_breakpoint(studio_interface, breakpoint_address, breakpoint_id, obj): a = studio_interface.CalcNumericValue("a", 0) if a == 0: studio_interface.Print("a was 0 or default", "Value scripts") else: studio_interface.Print("a = {}".format(a), "Value scripts") return True The CalcValue function is used to retrieve information about a symbol in the scope where the target code is running. The return value of this call is a list of information, containing the address of the symbol, symbol information and value. The objects sent in this list contains all known information about a symbol, but the most useful field is the last element which contains the value of the evaluated symbol. def should_process_breakpoint(studio_interface, breakpoint_address, breakpoint_id, obj): a = studio_interface.CalcValue("a") # a now contains all information about the variable a. # It is a list with the following members: # a = [ # , # , # , # '1' ] <-- This is the value of the symbol as a string, here it had the value 1 studio_interface.Print("Value of a = {}".format(a[3]), "Value Scripts") return True Note:  The different objects returned by the CalcValue call contains objects that are either internal, or documented in the Atmel Studio SDK. Use the python dir() command to look at the fields that are exported. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 198 9. Menus and Settings 9.1.

For example, you can establish a default save location for your projects, alter the default appearance and behavior of windows, and create shortcuts for commonly used commands. There are also options specific to your development language and platform. You can access Options from the Tools menu. Note:  The options available in dialog boxes, and the names and locations of menu commands you see, might differ from what is described in Help depending on your active settings or edition. To change your settings, choose Import and Export Settings on the Tools menu. Layout of the Options dialog box The Options dialog box is divided into two parts: a navigation pane on the left and a display area on the right. The tree control in the navigation pane includes folder nodes, such as Environment, Text Editor, Projects and Solutions, and Source Control. Expand any folder node to list the pages of options that it contains. When you select the node for a particular page, its options appear in the display area. Options for an IDE feature do not appear in the navigation pane until the feature is loaded into memory. Therefore, the same options might not be displayed as you begin a new session that were displayed as you ended the last. When you create a project or run a command that uses a particular application, nodes for relevant options are added to the Options dialog box. These added options will then remain available as long as the IDE feature remains in memory. Note:  Some settings collections scope the number of pages that appear in the navigation pane of the Options dialog box. You can choose to view all possible pages by selecting Show all settings. How options are applied Clicking OK in the Options dialog box saves all settings on all pages. Clicking on Cancel any page cancels all change requests, including any just made on other Options pages. Some changes to option settings, such as those made on Fonts and Colors, Environment, Options Dialog Box, will only take effect after you close and reopen Atmel Studio. 9.3.1.

The status bar is located at the bottom of the IDE window and displays information about the progress of ongoing operations. Close button affects active tool window only Specifies that when the Close button is clicked, only the tool window that has focus is closed and not all of the tool windows in the docked set. By default, this option is selected. Auto Hide button affects active tool window only Specifies that when the Auto Hide button is clicked, only the tool window that has focus is hidden automatically and not all of the tool windows in the docked set. By default, this option is not selected. Restore File Associations Registers file types that are typically associated with Atmel Studio. Registration causes Windows to display the correct icons in Windows Explorer, and to recognize Atmel Studio as the correct application for opening these file types. This option can be useful if you have two different versions of Atmel Studio installed on the same computer, and you later uninstall one of the versions. After uninstalling, the icons for Atmel Studio files no longer appear in Windows Explorer. In addition, Windows no longer recognizes Atmel Studio as the default application for editing these files. This option restores those associations. 9.3.1.2. Add-in/Macros Security Add-in Security Settings To enhance security by preventing malicious add-ins from automatically activating, Atmel Studio provides settings in a Tools Options page named Add-in/Macros Security. In addition, this options page allows you to specify the folders in which Atmel Studio searches for .Addin registration files. This enhances security by allowing you to limit the locations where .Addin registration files can be read, helping prevent malicious .Addin files from inadvertently being used. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 202 The settings in the Add-in/Macros Security, Environment, and Options Dialog Box that relate to add-in security are: • Allow add-in components to load. Checked by default. When checked, add-ins are allowed to load in Atmel Studio. When unchecked, add-ins are prohibited from loading in Atmel Studio. • Allow add-in components to load from a URL. Unchecked by default. When checked, add-ins are allowed to be loaded from external Web sites. When unchecked, remote add-ins are prohibited from loading in Atmel Studio. If an add-in cannot load for some reason, then it cannot be loaded from the web. This setting controls only the loading of the add-in DLL. The .Addin registration files must always be located on the local system. Default .Add-In File Search Locations In addition to the security settings, the options page has a list containing folders in which to search for .Addin registration files. By default, the following tokens are included: • %ALLUSERSDOCUMENTS% • %ALLUSERSPROFILE% • %APPDATA% • %VSAPPDATA% • %VSCOMMONAPPDATA% • %VSMYDOCUMENTS% When Atmel Studio begins searching for .AddIn files, it replaces these tokens with the following path strings: Table 9-1. AddIn Files Search Path Tokens Token Path %ALLUSERSDOCUMENTS% %PUBLIC%\Documents %ALLUSERSPROFILE% %ALLUSERSPROFILE% (defined by OS) %APPDATA% %USERPROFILE%\AppData %VSAPPDATA% %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\AVR Studio 5\ --OR-- %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Atmel Studio 6\ %VSCOMMONAPPDATA% %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Atmel Studio 6\ %VSMYDOCUMENTS% \Atmel Studio 6 Note:  Some of the default paths may resolve to targets that do not exist on your system. You can remove these predefined tokens from the list by highlighting the token and clicking Remove. To add other folders to the search list, click Add and specify a folder in the Browse for Folder dialog box. For more information, see Add-In Registration. 9.3.1.3. AutoRecover Use this page of the Options dialog box to specify whether or not files are automatically backed up. This page also allows you to specify whether or not modified files are restored when the integrated development environment (IDE) shuts down unexpectedly.

If you do not want to see any informational messages for Find and Replace, clear this option. When you have cleared the Always show this message option on some, but not all, Find and Replace informational messages, the Display informational messages check box appears to be filled but not selected. To restore all optional Find and Replace messages, clear this option and then select it again. Note:  This option does not affect any Find and Replace informational messages that do not display the Always show this message option. Display warning messages Select this option to display all cautionary Find and Replace messages that have the Always show this message option. For example, if you chose not to display the Replace All warning message that appears when you attempt to make replacements in files not currently opened for editing, selecting this option would cause this warning message to appear again when you attempt to Replace All. If you do not want to see any cautionary messages for Find and Replace, clear this option. When you have cleared the Always show this message option on some, but not all, Find and Replace warning messages, the Display warning messages check box appears to be filled but not selected. To restore all optional Find and Replace messages, clear this option and then select it again. Note:  This option does not affect any Find and Replace warning messages that do not display the Always show this message option. Automatically populate Find What with text from the editor Select this option to paste the text on either side of the current editor's insertion point into the Find what field when you select any view of the Find and Replace Window window from the Edit menu. Clear this option to use the last search pattern from the previous search as the Find what string.

Item foreground Lists the available colors you can choose for the foreground of the item selected in Display items. Because some items are related, and should therefore maintain a consistent display scheme, changing the foreground color of the text also changes the defaults for elements such as Compiler Error, Keyword, or Operator. Automatic Items can inherit the foreground color from other display items such as Plain Text. Using this option, when you change the color of an inherited display item, the color of the related display items also change automatically. For example, if you selected the Automatic value for Compiler Error and later changed the color of Plain Text to Red, the Compiler Error would also automatically inherit the color Red. Default the color that appears for the item the first time you start AVR Studio 5. Clicking the Use Defaults button resets to this color. Custom Displays the Color dialog box to allow you to set a custom color for the item selected in the Display items list. Note:  Your ability to define custom colors may be limited by the color settings for your computer display. For example, if your computer is set to display 256 colors and you select a custom color from the Color dialog box, the IDE defaults to the closest available Basic color and displays the color black in the Color preview box. Item background Provides a color palette from which you can choose a background color for the item selected in Display items. Because some items are related, and should therefore maintain a consistent display scheme, changing the background color of text also changes the defaults for elements such as Compiler Error, Keyword, or Operator. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 211 Automatic Items can inherit the background color from other display items such as Plain Text. Using this option, when you change the color of an inherited display item, the color of the related display items also change automatically. For example, if you selected the Automatic value for Compiler Error and later changed the color of Plain Text to Red, Compiler Error would also automatically inherit the color Red. Clicking the Use Defaults button resets to this color. Custom Displays the Color dialog box to allow you to set a custom color for the item selected in the Display items list. Bold Select this option to display the text of selected Display items in bold text. Bold text is easier to identify in the editor. Sample Displays a sample of the font style, size, and color scheme for the Show settings for and Display items selected. You can use this box to preview the results as you experiment with different formatting options. 9.3.1.6. Language and International Settings The International Settings page allows you to change the default language when you have more than one language version of the integrated development environment (IDE) installed on your machine. You can access this dialog box by selecting Options from the Tools menu and then choosing International Settings from the Environment folder. If this page does not appear in the list, select Show all settings in the Options dialog box. Any changes you make on this page apply only to the default IDE and do not take effect until the environment is restarted. Language Lists the available languages for the installed product language versions. This option is unavailable unless you have more than one language version installed on your machine. If multiple languages of products or a mixed language installation of products share the environment, the language selection is changed to Same as Microsoft Windows. Caution:  In a system with multiple languages installed, the build tools are not affected by this setting. These tools use the version for last language installed and the tools for the previously installed language are overwritten because the build tools do not use the satellite DLL model. 9.3.1.7. Keyboard Settings The shortcut key combinations in the scheme currently applied, (Default), depend on the settings you have selected as well as any customizations you might have made. For more information about the shortcut keys associated with a settings combination, see Working with Settings. Visual Studio also includes seven other keyboard mapping schemes, each of which differs from the others in the shortcut key combinations assigned by default to various UI elements. For a list of these combinations, organized by mapping scheme, see Pre-defined Keyboard Shortcuts. Commands with shortcut key combinations that are part of the Global scope can be superseded by commands in other scopes depending on the current context of the integrated development environment (IDE). For example, if you are editing a file, commands that are part of the Text Editor scope have precedence over commands in the Global scope that start with the same key combination. For example, if several Global commands have key combinations that start with CTRL + K and the Text Editor also has several commands with key combinations that start with CTRL + K, when you are editing code the Text Editor key combinations will work and the Global key combinations will be ignored. Note:  The options available in dialog boxes, and the names and locations of menu commands you see, might differ from what is described in Help depending on your active settings or edition. This Help page Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 212 was written with General Development Settings in mind. To change your settings, from the Tools menu, choose Import and Export Settings. For more information, see Working with Settings.

A grayed checkmark is displayed when an option has been selected on the General options pages for some programming languages, but not for others. Note:  The dialog boxes and menu commands you see might differ from those described in Help depending on your active settings or edition. To change your settings, choose Import and Export Settings on the Tools menu. For more information, see Working with Settings. Statement Completion Auto list members When selected, pop-up lists of available members, properties, values, or methods are displayed by IntelliSense as you type in the editor. Choose any item from the pop-up list to insert the item into your code. Selecting this option enables the Hide advanced members option. For more information, see List Members. Hide advanced members When selected, shortens pop-up statement completion lists by displaying only those items most commonly used. Other items are filtered from the list. Parameter information Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 233 When selected, the complete syntax for the current declaration or procedure is displayed under the insertion point in the editor, with all of its available parameters. The next parameter you can assign is displayed in bold. For more information, see Parameter Info. Settings Enable virtual space When this option is selected and Word wrap is cleared, you can click anywhere beyond the end of a line in the Code Editor and type. This feature can be used to position comments at a consistent point next to your code. Word wrap When selected, any portion of a line that extends horizontally beyond the viewable editor area is automatically displayed on the next line. Selecting this option enables the Show visual glyphs for word wrap option. Note:  The Virtual Space feature is turned off while Word Wrap is on. Show visual glyphs for word wrap When selected, a return-arrow indicator is displayed where a long line wraps onto a second line. Clear this option if you prefer not to display these indicators. Note:  These reminder arrows are not added to your code, and do not print. They are for reference only. Apply Cut or Copy commands to blank lines when there is no selection This option sets the behavior of the editor when you place the insertion point on a blank line, select nothing, and then Copy or Cut. When this option is selected, the blank line is copied or cut. If you then Paste, a new, blank line is inserted. When this option is cleared, the Cut command removes blank lines. However, the data on the Clipboard is preserved. Therefore, if you then use the Paste command, the content most recently copied onto the Clipboard is pasted. If nothing has been copied previously, nothing is pasted. This setting has no effect on Copy or Cut when a line is not blank. If nothing is selected, the entire line is copied or cut. If you then Paste, the text of the entire line and its endline character are pasted. Tip:  To display indicators for spaces, tabs, and line ends, and thus distinguish indented lines from lines that are entirely blank, select Advanced from the Edit menu and choose View White Space. Display Line numbers When selected, a line number appears next to each line of code. Note:  These line numbers are not added to your code, and do not print. They are for reference only. Enable single-click URL navigation When selected, the mouse cursor changes to a pointing hand as it passes over a URL in the editor. You can click the URL to display the indicated page in your Web browser. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 234 Navigation bar When selected, displays the Navigation bar at the top of the code editor. Its drop-down Objects and Members lists allow you to choose a particular object in your code, select from its members, and navigates to the declaration of the selected member in the Code Editor. Tabs Dialog This dialog box allows you to change the default behavior of the Code Editor. These settings also apply to other editors based upon the Code Editor, such as the HTML Designer's Source view. To display these options, select Options from the Tools menu. Within the Text Editor folder expand the All Languages subfolder, and then choose Tabs. Caution:  This page sets default options for all development languages. Remember that resetting an option in this dialog will reset the Tabs options in all languages to whatever choices are selected here. To change Text Editor options for just one language, expand the subfolder for that language and select its option pages. If different settings are selected on the Tabs options pages for particular programming languages, then the message "The indentation settings for individual text formats conflict with each other," is displayed for differing Indenting options; and the message "The tab settings for individual text formats conflict with each other," is displayed for differing Tab options. Note:  The dialog boxes and menu commands you see might differ from those described in Help depending on your active settings or edition. To change your settings, choose Import and Export Settings on the Tools menu. For more information, see Working with Settings. Indenting None When selected, new lines are not indented. The insertion point is placed in the first column of a new line. Block When selected, new lines are automatically indented. The insertion point is placed at the same starting point as the preceding line. Smart When selected, new lines are positioned to fit the code context, per other code formatting settings and IntelliSense conventions for your development language. This option is not available for all development languages. For example, lines enclosed between an opening brace ( { ) and a closing brace ( } ) might automatically be indented an extra tab stop from the position of the aligned braces. Tab and indent size Sets the distance in spaces between tab stops and for automatic indentation. The default is four spaces. Tab characters, space characters, or both will be inserted to fill the specified size. Insert spaces When selected, indent operations insert only space characters, not TAB characters. If the Tab and Indent size is set to 5, for example, then five space characters are inserted whenever you press the TAB key or the Increase Indent button on the Formatting toolbar. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 235 Keep tabs When selected, each indent operation inserts one TAB character. XML Formatting Options This dialog box allows you to specify the formatting settings for the XML Editor. You can access the Options dialog box from the Tools menu. Note:  These settings are available when you select the Text Editor folder, the XML folder, and then the Formatting option from the Options dialog box. Attributes Preserve manual attribute formatting Attributes are not reformatted. This is the default. Note:  If the attributes are on multiple lines, the editor indents each line of attributes to match the indentation of the parent element. Align attributes each on their own line Aligns the second and subsequent attributes vertically to match the indentation of the first attribute. The following XML text is an example of how the attributes would be aligned. Auto Reformat On paste from the Clipboard Reformats XML text pasted from the Clipboard. On completion of end tag Reformats the element when the end tag is completed. Mixed Content Preserve mixed content by default Determines whether the editor reformats mixed content. By default, the editor attempts to reformat mixed content, except when the content is found in an xml:space="preserve" scope. If an element contains a mix of text and markup, the contents are considered to be mixed content. The following is an example of an element with mixed content. c:\data\AlphaProject\ test1.txt test2.txt XML Miscellaneous Options This dialog box allows you to change the autocompletion and schema settings for the XML Editor. You can access the Options dialog box from the Tools menu. Note:  These settings are available when you select the Text Editor folder, the XML folder, and then the Miscellaneous option from the Options dialog box. Auto Insert Close tags Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 236 If the autocompletion setting is checked, the editor automatically adds an end tag when you type a right angle bracket (>) to close a start tag, if the tag is not already closed. This is the default behavior. The completion of an empty element does not depend on the autocompletion setting. You can always autocomplete an empty element by typing a backslash (/). Attribute quotes When authoring XML attributes, the editor inserts the =" " characters and positions the caret (^) inside the double quotes. Selected by default. Namespace declarations The editor automatically inserts namespace declarations wherever they are needed. Selected by default. Other markup (Comments, CDATA) Comments, CDATA, DOCTYPE, processing instructions, and other markup are auto-completed. Selected by default. Network Automatically download DTDs and schemas Schemas and document type definitions (DTDs) are automatically downloaded from HTTP locations.

Toolchain Figure 9-2. Toolchain Flavor Configuration Toolchain Toolchain is used to compile, link, and transform the source code to an executable form targeting the AVR devices. By default, AVR Studio has the following Toolchain Type extensions. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 240 Table 9-2. Toolchain Options Toolchain type Language Description AVR Assembler Assembly Used for building 8-Bit Assembler projects Atmel AVR 8-bit C Used for building 8-Bit C/C++ projects C++ Atmel AVR 32-bit C Used for building 32-Bit C/C++ projects C++ Atmel ARM 32-bit C Used for building ARM C/C++ projects C++ 9.3.11.1. Flavor Flavor identifies a particular version of Toolchain extension of a desired Toolchain type. You could have different flavors of same Toolchain type extensions installed for Atmel Studio. Add Flavor 1. Select a Toolchain type for which the new Flavor is to be added. Figure 9-3. Add Toolchain Flavor 2. Enter a new Flavor Name. 3. Configure the Toolchain path for the Flavor. The path should contain desired Toolchain executable, e.g. avr-gcc.exe for Atmel AVR 8-bit. 4. Click the Add button. Set Default Flavor 1. Select a Flavor to set as default. The flavor would be the default for the selected toolchain type. Hence, a new project using the toolchain type, would use the configured Flavor settings. 2. You can view and switch between various Flavors after creating the project through the project properties page shown in Advanced Options. Delete Flavor Pressing the Delete Flavor button deletes the Flavor configuration. Note:  If the customized default flavor is deleted, then the Native flavor will be set as default. Also the projects that were configured with the deleted flavor will be changed to the default flavor of the respective toolchain type when the project is opened the next time. 9.3.12.

Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 241 9.4. Code Snippet Manager Code snippets are particularly useful when writing AVR GCC applications. You can use the Code Snippets Manager to add folders to the folder list that the Code Snippet Picker scans for XML .snippet files. Having these building blocks of code at your disposal can facilitate project development. The Code Snippets Manager can be accessed from the Tools menu. 9.4.1. Managing Code Snippets To access the Code Snippets Manager On the Tools menu, click Code Snippets Manager. To add a directory to the Code Snippet Manager 1. In the Language: drop-down list, select the language that you want to add a directory to. 2. Click Add. This opens the Code Snippets Directory window. 3. Select the directory that you want to add to the Code Snippets Manager and click OK. The directory will now be used to search for available code snippets. To remove a directory from the Code Snippet Manager 1. Select the directory that you want to remove. 2. Click Remove. To import a code snippet into the Code Snippet Manager 1. In the Language: drop-down list, select the language that you want to add the code snippet to. 2. Select the existing folder that you want to place the imported code snippet into. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 242 3. Click Import. This opens the Code Snippets Directory window. 4. Select the code snippet file that you want to add to the Code Snippets Manager and click OK. The code snippet is now available for insertion into the code editor. 9.4.2. Code Snippet Manager Layout Language Selects the development language whose code snippet folders are displayed in the folder list. Location Displays the path to the folders in the folder list, or to the code snippet file selected there. Folder list Shows the set of sub-folders, if any, and the code snippet files available for the Language selected. Click any folder to expand it and list its files. Description Displays information on the folder or code snippet file selected in the folder list. When a code snippet file is selected, displays the text from its Author, Description, Shortcut, and Type fields. Add Opens the Code Snippet Directory dialog box. Allows you to navigate to the desired snippets folder on your local drive or server, and include it in the folder list. Remove Removes a selected top-level folder and its contents from the folder list. Does not physically delete the folder. Import Opens the Code Snippet Directory dialog box. Allows you to navigate to the desired snippet on your local drive or server, and add it to an existing code snippet folder. Security Whenever you store a new snippet in a folder accessed by the Code Snippets Manager, you are responsible for ensuring that its code is constructed as securely as the rest of your application. Because using code snippets saves development time, snippets can be reused frequently as you construct applications. You should therefore make sure that model code saved in snippets is designed to address security issues. Development teams should establish procedures to review code snippets for compliance with general security standards. 9.4.3. Modifying Existing Code Snippets IntelliSense Code Snippets are XML files with a .snippet file name extension that can be easily modified using any XML editor, including Atmel Studio. To modify an existing IntelliSense Code Snippet 1. Use the Code Snippets Manager to locate the snippet that you want to modify. 2. Copy the path of the code snippet to the clipboard and click OK. 3. On the File menu, click Open, and click File. 4. Paste the snippet path into the File location box and click OK. 5. Modify the snippet. 6. On the File menu, click Save. You must have write access to the file to save it. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 243 9.5. External Tools You can add items to the Tools menu that allow you to launch external tools from within Visual Studio. For example, you can add an item to the Tools menu to launch utilities such as avrdude or a diffing tool. 9.5.1. Add an External Tool to the Tools Menu You can add a command to the Tools menu to start another application, such as Notepad, from within the integrated development environment (IDE). Figure 9-4. External Tool Dialog The dialog contains a list box where all previously defined external tools are listed. If you have not defined any tool, the list box will be empty. • On the Tools menu, choose External Tools • In the External Tools dialog box, choose Add, and enter a name for the menu option in the Title box Tip:  Type an ampersand before one of the letters in the tool name to create an accelerator key for the command when it appears on the Tools menu. For example, if you use M&y External Tool, the letter 'y' will be the accelerator key. See Assign a Keyboard Shortcut for more information. • In the Command box, enter the path to the file you intend to launch, or choose Browse (...) to navigate to the file. Files types that you can launch include .exe, .bat, .com, .cmd, and .pif. Note:  If the file resides on the system path, you can enter just the file name. If not, enter the full path to the file. • Select Use output window and Close on exit, as appropriate, and then choose OK Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 244 9.5.2. Pass Variables to External Tools You can specify that certain information be passed to a command when it is launched, such as command line switches for console applications. Fill in the Arguments box with the necessary launch arguments, either manually or using the auto-fill button. The auto-fill argument button can provide you with the macros described in the table below. Table 9-3. External Tools Macros Name Argument Description Item Path $(ItemPath) The complete file name of the current source (defined as drive + path + file name); blank if a non-source window is active.

Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 245 9.5.3. Initial Directory You can also specify the working directory for the tool or command. For example, if the tool reads file system data from the current directory, the tool requires that certain program components are present in the current directory at start-up. 9.5.4. Run Behavior Underneath the argument boxes you can modify the tool behavior. Use output window - if this box is checked, the tool will output processing information to the Atmel Studio output window, otherwise the output will be suppressed. Close on exit - if the box is checked the tool window, if any will be automatically closed after completing all operations. Prompt for arguments - used for toolchain automation. If the box is checked, external tool will require user intervention to input additional processing parameters, otherwise the tool will be silent. Treat output as Unicode - internationalization option. Some tools have a capacity to output Unicode results for better interpretation. This option allows for correct output rendering if you are using such a tool. 9.5.5. Assign a Keyboard Shortcut To assign a shortcut (accelerator) to a command, add an ampersand (&) in the title of the tool, just before the letter that you want to use as the access key. After the ampersand has been added the accelerator needs to be included as a keyboard shortcut. • On the Tools menu, click Options • Select Keyboard on the Environment page • In the Show commands containing list, type Tools • In the Command names list, locate the appropriate External Command n entry Note:  You can define keyboard shortcuts for up to twenty external tools. External tools are listed as External Command 1-20 in the Command names list. The numbers correspond to the number to the left of the custom external command name on the Tools menu. If the menu command already has a shortcut assigned to it, that information appears in the Shortcuts for selected command list. • Put the cursor in the Press shortcut keys box, and then press the keys you want to assign to the external tool Note:  If the keyboard shortcut is already assigned to another command, the Shortcut currently assigned to list will display that information. • Click Assign 9.6. Predefined Keyboard Shortcuts The Atmel Studio uses the Visual Studio Shell framework from Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and therefore the integrated development environment (IDE) includes several predefined keyboard shortcut schemes, identical to those in the Visual Studio. When you start Atmel Studio for the first time and select your settings, the associated schemes are automatically set. Thereafter, by using the keyboard options page in the Options dialog box, you can choose from additional schemes and you can also create your own keyboard shortcuts.

The Atmel USB Driver is a cumulative installer that bundles the Jungo USB driver for the AVR tools and the Segger USB Driver for SAM tools. I get an error during installation of the Atmel USB Driver Package. During installation of the Atmel USB Driver Package, you might get the error 0x800b010a - A certificate chain could not be built to a trusted root authority. This means that the certificate that signs the installer could not be validated using the certificate authority built in to Windows. The reason for not being able to validate the certificate is because the certificate chain needs to be updated through Windows Update. Make sure that you have received all updates, so that Windows is able to validate the certificate. If you are not able to update your computer due to the computer being offline or restricted in some way, then the root certificate update can be downloaded from http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/931125. Will Atmel Studio work in parallel with older versions of Atmel Studio, AVR Studio, and AVR32 Studio? Yes, it will work side by side between major and minor versions. Side by side installation with different build numbers are not possible. If you are uninstalling AVR Studio 4.0 or AVR32 Studio be careful when you manually delete folders or registry entries after uninstall, as there might be other keys and folders deployed by Atmel Studio inside the Atmel folder and registry paths. Note that drivers may be incompatible between versions. I have AVR Studio 4 in my PC. When installing Atmel Studio it updated the Jungo USB driver. Will AVR Studio 4 still work? Yes, it will work. If Jungo driver is already present and its version is anything less than the new one, then the installer will update the Jungo driver you already have. The newest Jungo USB driver (version 12) breaks compatibility with older versions. See KB: Downgrading tools for how to switch between Jungo versions. Atmel Studio cannot find any debuggers or programmers when Norton AntiVirus is running. Atmel Studio might not show any connected tools if Norton AntiVirus is running. To make it work make sure Norton AntiVirus allows atprogram.exe to communicate with Atmel Studio by adding atbackend.exe as an exception in the Norton AntiVirus allowed programs. This is the same with any anti-virus program that by default blocks ports. Windows shows a message box with the following message when attempting to run Atmel Studio installer: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item. " This might be caused by an anti-virus program blocking the installation of the Atmel Studio. We have seen this with the Sophos antivirus package. Temporarily disable the Sophos service running on the machine (or any corresponding anti-virus service), and attempt installation. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 263 Atmel Studio takes a very long time to start, but runs well in a VM environment. The Visual Studio shell (and thus Atmel Studio) does a considerable amount of processing during start-up. Parts of the operations are WPF operations which benefits greatly by updated graphics libraries and drivers. Installing the latest graphics driver may give a performance boost both during normal operation and during start-up. Verification and programming often fails with a serial port buffer overrun error message when using STK500. This is a known issue. Due to DPC latency, serial communication can have buffer overruns on the UART chipset. A workaround which works for most systems is to use an USB to serial adapter. When launching from a guest account, the following error is displayed when starting Atmel Studio: "Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation". Atmel Studio neither installs under guest account and nor runs under it. Can install and run Atmel Studio from within a Virtual Machine. Yes, with simulator there should be no issues. However with physical devices like debuggers and programmers, the VM must offer support for physical USB and Serial port connections. How can I reduce the startup time of Atmel Studio? • Make sure you have uninstalled unwanted extensions • Disable Allow Add-in components to load: 2.1. Go to Tools, Options, Add-in/Macro Security. 2.2. Then uncheck the Allow Add-in components to load option. • Disable the start-up page: 3.1. Go to Tools, Options, Environment, Startup, At Startup. 3.2. Select the Show empty environment option. How to improve studio performance for any supported version of Windows? • Make sure your system has the latest version of the Windows Automation API • Exclude the following directories and files from your antivirus scanner: – The Atmel Studio installation directory, and all files and folders inside it – %AppData%\Roaming\Atmel directory, and all files and folders inside it – %AppData%\Local\Atmel directory, and all files and folders inside it – Your project directories • Visual Studio Shell requires a lot of swap space. Increase the paging file. Also put the system to maximize performance. Both options are found in the System, Properties, Performance, Settings menu. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 264 Should I install the latest Windows Automation API 3.0? Yes, if your OS is any of the following: • Windows Server 2008 How can I make sure my system has the latest Windows Automation API 3.0? Your system has the latest Windows Automation API if you have Windows 7 or Windows 8. Only Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Server 2008 have the old version of the API. Find the UIAutomationCore.dll file in your system (normally found in the windows folder) and compare the version number of that file. The version should be 7.X.X.X. for the new API. The latest API can be found at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971513. My Project is large and it takes a long time to open. Is there any option to avoid this delay? Visual Assist X parses all the files when we opening the existing project. You could disable this option: 1. Go to VAssistX, Visual Assist X Options, Performance. 2. Uncheck the Parse all files when opening the project. I have the limited RAM size in my system and I work long hours in the same instance of Atmel Studio. After some time, Atmel Studio becomes slow on my system. Press Ctrl+Shift+Alt+F12 twice to force Atmel Studio to garbage collect. Does Atmel Studio perform better on multi-core processors than on singlecore systems? Yes, Atmel Studio performs better on a multi-core system. How can I make my projects build faster? You can enable parallel build Option from Tools, Options, Builder, GNU Make, Make Parallel Execution Of Build. This option will enable the parallel execution feature in the GNU make utility. This option may cause the build log to be displayed unordered. 11.1. Compatibility with Legacy AVR Software and Third-party Products 11.1.1. How do I Import External ELF Files for Debugging? Use the File → Open object file for debugging. 11.1.2. How do I Reuse My AVR Studio 4 Projects with the New Atmel Studio? 1. Click the menu File→Import AVR Studio 4 project. 2. An "Import AVR Studio 4 Project" dialog will appear. 3. Type in the name of your project or browse to the project location by clicking the Browse button of the APFS File location Tab. 4. Name the new solution resulting from the conversion of your project in the Solution Folder Tab. 5. Click Next. 6. Atmel Studio will proceed with conversion. Depending on the complexity and specificity of your project there might be some warnings and errors. They will be shown in the Summary window. 7. Click Finish to access your newly converted project. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 265 11.2. Atmel Studio Interface 11.2.1. How can I Start Debugging My Code? What is the Keyboard Shortcut for Debugging? Unlike the AVR Studio 4 to build your project, without starting debugging, you should press F7. If you need to rebuild your project after a change to the source files, press Ctrl Alt F7 . To Start debugging - press F5. To open the Debugging Interface without running directly, press the Debug→Start Debugging and Break menu button, or press F11. To start a line-by-line debugging press F10, to start an instruction by instruction debugging session - press F11. To run your project without debugging, press the Debug→Start Without Debugging menu button. 11.2.2. What is a Solution? A solution is a structure for organizing projects in Atmel Studio. The solution maintains the state information for projects in .sln (text-based, shared) and .suo (binary, user-specific solution options) files. 11.2.3. What is a Project A project is a logic folder that contains references to all the source files contained in your project, all the included libraries and all the built executables. Projects allow seamless reuse of code and easy automation of the build process for complex applications. 11.2.4. How can I use an External Makefile for my Project? The usage of external makefiles and other project options can be configured in the project properties. Remember that an external makefile has to contain the rules needed by Atmel Studio to work. 11.2.5. When Watching a Variable, the Debugger says Optimized away Most compilers today are what is known as an optimizing compiler. This means that the compiler will employ a number of tricks to reduce the size of your program, or speed it up. Note:  This behavior is usually controlled by the -On switches. The cause of this error is usually trying to debug parts of code that does nothing. Trying to watch the variable a in the following example may cause this behavior. int main() { int a = 0; while (a < 42) { a += 2; } } The reason for a to be optimized away is obvious as the incrementation of a does not affect any other part of our code. This example of a busy wait loop is a prime example of unexpected behavior if you are unaware of this fact. To fix this, either lower the optimization level used during compilation, or preferably declare a as volatile. Other situations where a variable should be declared volatile is if some variable is shared between the code and a ISR7 . For a thorough walk through of this issue, have a look at Cliff Lawsons excellent tutorial on this issue. 7 Interrupt Service Routine Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 266 11.2.6. When Starting a Debug Session, I get an Error Stating that Debug Tool is not Set The reason for this message is that there are no tool capable to debug that are selected for your project. Go to the Tool project pane and change the to a supported tool. If the tool you have selected does support debug, then check that the correct interface is chosen and that the frequency is according to the specification. If the issue persist, try to lower the frequency to a frequency where programming is stable, and then slowly increase the frequency as long as it keeps stable. 11.3. Performance Issues 11.3.1. Atmel Studio Takes a Very Long Time to Start on My PC, but Runs Well in a VM Environment. Is there Something I Can do With This? Visual Studio shell (and thus Atmel Studio) uses WPF as a graphics library and does a lot of processing in the GUI thread. WPF has support for hardware acceleration. Some graphics card drivers does not utilize this well and spend time in kernel space even when no graphics update is required. Installing the latest graphics driver may give a performance boost. 11.3.2. Verification and Programming often Fails with a Serial Port Buffer Overrun Error Message when using STK500 This is a known issue. Interrupt DPC latency for serial communication may be disrupted by other drivers, thus causing buffer overruns on the UART chipset. A workaround which works for most systems is to use a USB to serial adapter. 11.3.3. I've connected my Tool through a USB Hub, and now I get Error Messages and Inconsistent Results while Programming and Debugging Tools and devices should be connected directly to an USB port on your debugging PC. If this is not an option, you may reduce/eliminate problems by: • Disconnect any other USB devices connected to the hub • Switch ports on the USB hub • Set the tool clock frequency low. E.g. Set JTAG Clock < 600kHz. • If Use external reset is an option for your tool/device combination, enable this Note:  The AVR Dragon should be connected through a powered USB hub. This because the power supply on the Dragon can be too weak if the motherboard does not provided enough power. If the Dragon times out or freezes, then the hub might be of to low quality. 11.4. Driver and USB Issues 11.4.1. How do I get my Tool to be Recognized by Atmel Studio? This should happen automatically, but sometimes the Windows driver does not recognize the tool correctly. To correct this, you have to check that the tool is listed under the Jungo item in the device manager in Windows. If your tool is not listed, try to find it under Unknown devices. If it is located there, try to reinstall the driver by double clicking the tool, click the Driver tab and choose Update Driver. Let Windows search for the driver. The driver should be reinstalled and the tool should be displayed under Jungo. Now, the tool should be usable from Atmel Studio. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 267 11.4.2. The Firmware upgrade Process fails or is Unstable on a Virtualized Machine Most tools will perform a reset when asked to switch from normal operation mode to firmware upgrade mode. This forces the tool to re-enumerate on the USB bus, and the virtualization software may not reattach to it making your virtualized system with a disconnected tool. Normal virtualization software supports the idea of USB filters where you set a collection of USB devices you want to automatically attach to a given guest operating system. Check the manual for your virtualization solution to see how this is done, or see the Firmware Upgrade Fails on VirtualBox. 11.4.3. Debugging never Breaks under a Virtualized Machine Some virtualization solutions have a limit on how many USB endpoints it supports. This may become an issue if the number of endpoints is lower than the required number for the tool. Usually this causes programming to work as expected but debug not to work as debug events are transmitted on a higher endpoint number. Check with your virtualization software how many endpoints are available, and on other endpoint specific issues with your virtualization software regarding this. 11.4.4. No Tool is recognized by Atmel Studio, but the Driver seems to be Working On some systems the Jungo driver is known not to activate properly. This can be seen as the WinDriver unit under Jungo in the device manager in Windows is missing. To remedy this, try the following: 1. In your Device Manager, right click on your computer name (the very top item) and choose Add Legacy Hardware. 2. Click next, and choose to install the hardware manually. 3. Choose the Show All Devices item on the top of the list, and click next. 4. Click the Have Disk button. 5. Navigate to the folder Atmel USB which is located under the install directory for Atmel Studio (typical location is C:\Program Files (x86)\Atmel\Atmel USB. 6. Choose the usb32 or usb64 folder depending on the architecture you are running. 7. Inside there should be only one file named windrvr#.inf, where the hash is the revision number for the driver. Double click this, click OK, and the WinDriver should appear in the list. If you get an error message, you probably have chosen the wrong architecture. 8. Click Next until finished. 9. Verify that the WinDriver has appeared under Jungo. The tools should be working straight away, but you may have to restart your machine if you are still having problems. 11.4.5. Firmware Upgrade Fails on VirtualBox When doing a firmware upgrade on any tool, the tool needs to be reconnected in another mode than the one used during regular operation. This causes the tool to be re-enumerated, and can cause the tool to be disconnected from the VirtualBox instance and returned to the host operating system. To make the tool connect automatically to the VirtualBox instance, you need to set up a couple of USB filters. More information on USB filters can be found in the VirtualBox documentation. Make two filters that are similar to the two shown in the figure below. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 268 Figure 11-1. VirtualBox USB Filter Note that the example in the figure above is specific for the JTAGICE mkII. There are one entry for the tool, here the JTAGICE mkII, and one for AVRBLDR, which is the firmware upgrade mode for the tool. The name, serial, Vendor ID, and Product ID may be different for your tool, so change those values accordingly. Note:  This section contains specifics to VirtualBox. The same logic applies to other virtualization software, but the steps may differ. 11.4.6. Common Jungo USB Errors Jungo is the driver stack that is used for older programmers and debuggers, up to the JTAGICE3.

Issues with ARM Compatible Tools In some rare instances all ARM compatible tools disappears from Atmel Studio. This has been tracked down to different dll load strategies used in different versions of Windows. To check that it is a dll load error, try to read out the chip information using atprogram. This can be done by opening the Atmel Studio command prompt from the Tools menu inside Atmel Studio or from the start menu. In the command prompt, enter the following command and check that it does not fail. atprogram -t -i -d info In the snippet above, replace with the tool name, e.g. atmelice, samice, or edbg. Likewise, replace interface with the used interface and the device with the full device name, e.g. atsam3s4c. Invoking the above command should output information about the memory layout, the supply voltage for the chip, and the fuse settings. If it fails it is likely a driver issue, which is covered by Driver and USB Issues. If atprogram is able to communicate with the device it means that the issue is most likely a wrong version of JLinkArm.dll being loaded due to loader precedence. To check this, use the Procmon tool to check what dll is being loaded. Download the Procmon tool, open it, and configure the filter shown in the figure below. Then start Atmel Studio. A couple of seconds after Atmel Studio has started, one line should become visible showing the path to where the dll is being loaded from. It should be loaded from the atbackend folder inside the Atmel Studio installation directory. Atmel Atmel Studio [USER GUIDE] Atmel-42167B-Atmel-Studio_User Guide-09/2016 270 Figure 11-2. Procmon Filter Configuration If the path of the dll is different it means that Atmel Studio has picked up the wrong dll, and this dll is incompatible with the dll shipped with Atmel Studio. An example of this is shown in the figure below. Figure 11-3. Procmon Filter Configuration To solve the above issue, we recommend backing up the dll that is being loaded and then replacing it with the JLinkARM.dll found in the atbackend directory inside the Atmel Studio installation directory. This can be done given the assumption that the dll bundled with Atmel Studio is newer than the one that is being loaded, and the dll is backwards compatible. Note:  Remember to back up the offending JLinkARM.dll before replacing it, as it is not given that it will be compatible with the program that deployed it.

Overview The AVR XMEGA B microcontrollers is a family of low-power, high-performance, and peripheral-rich CMOS 8/16-bit microcontrollers based on the AVR enhanced RISC architecture. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the Atmel AVR XMEGA B devices achieve throughputs approaching one million instructions per second (MIPS) per megahertz, allowing the system designer to optimize power consumption versus processing speed. The AVR CPU combines a rich instruction set with 32 general purpose working registers. All 32 registers are directly connected to the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), allowing two independent registers to be accessed in a single instruction, executed in one clock cycle. The resulting architecture is more code efficient while achieving throughputs many times faster than conventional single-accumulator or CISC based microcontrollers. The Atmel AVR XMEGA B devices provide the following features: in-system programmable flash with read-while-write capabilities; internal EEPROM and SRAM; two-channel DMA controller; four-channel event system and programmable multilevel interrupt controller; up to 53 general purpose I/O lines; 16-bit real-time counter (RTC); up to three flexible 16-bit timer/counters with capture, compare and PWM modes; up to two USARTs; one I2 C and SMBUS compatible two-wire serial interface (TWI); one full-speed USB 2.0 interface; one serial peripheral interface (SPI); one LCD controller supporting display capacity up to 4 Common and up to 40 Segment terminals; CRC module; AES and DES cryptographic engine; up to two 8-channel, 12-bit ADCs with programmable gain; up to four analog comparators with window mode; programmable watchdog timer with separate internal oscillator; accurate internal oscillators with PLL and prescaler; and programmable brown-out detection. The program and debug interface (PDI), a fast, two-pin interface for programming and debugging, is available. Selected devices also have an IEEE std. 1149.1 compliant JTAG interface, and this can also be used for on-chip debug and programming. The Atmel AVR XMEGA devices have five software selectable power saving modes. The idle mode stops the CPU while allowing the SRAM, DMA controller, event system, interrupt controller, and all peripherals to continue functioning. The power-down mode saves the SRAM and register contents, but stops the oscillators, disabling all other functions until the next TWI, USB resume, or pin-change interrupt, or reset. In power-save mode, the asynchronous real-time counter continues to run, allowing the application to maintain a timer base while the rest of the device is sleeping. In this mode, the LCD controller is allowed to refresh data to the panel. In standby mode, the external crystal oscillator keeps running while the rest of the device is sleeping. This allows very fast startup from the external crystal, combined with low power consumption. In extended standby mode, both the main oscillator and the asynchronous timer continue to run. In this mode, the LCD controller is allowed to refresh data to the panel. To further reduce power consumption, the peripheral clock to each individual peripheral can optionally be stopped in active mode and idle sleep mode. The devices are manufactured using Atmel high-density, nonvolatile memory technology. The program flash memory can be reprogrammed in-system through the PDI or JTAG interfaces. A boot loader running in the device can use any interface to download the application program to the flash memory. The boot loader software in the boot flash section will continue to run while the application flash section is updated, providing true read-while-write operation. By combining an 8/16-bit RISC CPU with In-system, self-programmable flash, the Atmel AVR XMEGA is a powerful microcontroller family that provides a highly flexible and cost effective solution for many embedded applications. The Atmel AVR XMEGA B devices are supported with a full suite of program and system development tools, including C compilers, macro assemblers, program debugger/simulators, programmers, and evaluation kits.

The main function of the CPU is to execute the code and perform all calculations. The CPU is able to access memories, perform calculations, control peripherals, and execute the program in the flash memory. Interrupt handling is described in a separate section, “Interrupts and Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller” on page 115. 3.3 Architectural Overview In order to maximize performance and parallelism, the AVR CPU uses a Harvard architecture with separate memories and buses for program and data. Instructions in the program memory are executed with single-level pipelining. While one instruction is being executed, the next instruction is pre-fetched from the program memory. This enables instructions to be executed on every clock cycle. For a summary of all AVR instructions, refer to “Instruction Set Summary” on page 395. For details of all AVR instructions, refer to http://www.atmel.com/avr. Figure 3-1. Block diagram of the AVR CPU architecture. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 8 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 The arithmetic logic unit (ALU) supports arithmetic and logic operations between registers or between a constant and a register. Single-register operations can also be executed in the ALU. After an arithmetic operation, the status register is updated to reflect information about the result of the operation. The ALU is directly connected to the fast-access register file. The 32 x 8-bit general purpose working registers all have single clock cycle access time allowing single-cycle arithmetic logic unit operation between registers or between a register and an immediate. Six of the 32 registers can be used as three 16-bit address pointers for program and data space addressing, enabling efficient address calculations. The memory spaces are linear. The data memory space and the program memory space are two different memory spaces. The data memory space is divided into I/O registers, SRAM, and external RAM. In addition, the EEPROM can be memory mapped in the data memory. All I/O status and control registers reside in the lowest 4KB addresses of the data memory. This is referred to as the I/O memory space. The lowest 64 addresses can be accessed directly, or as the data space locations from 0x00 to 0x3F. The rest is the extended I/O memory space, ranging from 0x0040 to 0x0FFF. I/O registers here must be accessed as data space locations using load (LD/LDS/LDD) and store (ST/STS/STD) instructions. The SRAM holds data. Code execution from SRAM is not supported. It can easily be accessed through the five different addressing modes supported in the AVR architecture. The first SRAM address is 0x2000. Data addresses 0x1000 to 0x1FFF are reserved for memory mapping of EEPROM. The program memory is divided in two sections, the application program section and the boot program section. Both sections have dedicated lock bits for write and read/write protection. The SPM instruction that is used for selfprogramming of the application flash memory must reside in the boot program section. The application section contains an application table section with separate lock bits for write and read/write protection. The application table section can be used for save storing of nonvolatile data in the program memory. 3.4 ALU - Arithmetic Logic Unit The arithmetic logic unit supports arithmetic and logic operations between registers or between a constant and a register. Single-register operations can also be executed. The ALU operates in direct connection with all 32 general purpose registers. In a single clock cycle, arithmetic operations between general purpose registers or between a register and an immediate are executed and the result is stored in the register file. After an arithmetic or logic operation, the status register is updated to reflect information about the result of the operation. ALU operations are divided into three main categories – arithmetic, logical, and bit functions. Both 8- and 16-bit arithmetic is supported, and the instruction set allows for efficient implementation of 32-bit arithmetic. The hardware multiplier supports signed and unsigned multiplication and fractional format. 3.4.1 Hardware Multiplier The multiplier is capable of multiplying two 8-bit numbers into a 16-bit result. The hardware multiplier supports different variations of signed and unsigned integer and fractional numbers: z Multiplication of unsigned integers z Multiplication of signed integers z Multiplication of a signed integer with an unsigned integer z Multiplication of unsigned fractional numbers z Multiplication of signed fractional numbers z Multiplication of a signed fractional number with an unsigned one A multiplication takes two CPU clock cycles. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 9 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 3.5 Program Flow After reset, the CPU starts to execute instructions from the lowest address in the flash program memory ‘0.’ The program counter (PC) addresses the next instruction to be fetched. Program flow is provided by conditional and unconditional jump and call instructions capable of addressing the whole address space directly. Most AVR instructions use a 16-bit word format, while a limited number use a 32-bit format. During interrupts and subroutine calls, the return address PC is stored on the stack. The stack is allocated in the general data SRAM, and consequently the stack size is only limited by the total SRAM size and the usage of the SRAM. After reset, the stack pointer (SP) points to the highest address in the internal SRAM. The SP is read/write accessible in the I/O memory space, enabling easy implementation of multiple stacks or stack areas. The data SRAM can easily be accessed through the five different addressing modes supported in the AVR CPU. 3.6 Instruction Execution Timing The AVR CPU is clocked by the CPU clock, clkCPU. No internal clock division is used. Figure 3-2 on page 9 shows the parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions enabled by the Harvard architecture and the fast-access register file concept. This is the basic pipelining concept used to obtain up to 1MIPS/MHz performance with high power efficiency. Figure 3-2. The parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions. Figure 3-3 on page 9 shows the internal timing concept for the register file. In a single clock cycle, an ALU operation using two register operands is executed and the result is stored back to the destination register. Figure 3-3. Single Cycle ALU Operation clk 1st Instruction Fetch 1st Instruction Execute 2nd Instruction Fetch 2nd Instruction Execute 3rd Instruction Fetch 3rd Instruction Execute 4th Instruction Fetch T1 T2 T3 T4 CPU Total Execution Time Register Operands Fetch ALU Operation Execute Result Write Back T1 T2 T3 T4 clkCPU XMEGA B [MANUAL] 10 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 3.7 Status Register The status register (SREG) contains information about the result of the most recently executed arithmetic or logic instruction. This information can be used for altering program flow in order to perform conditional operations. Note that the status register is updated after all ALU operations, as specified in the instruction set reference. This will in many cases remove the need for using the dedicated compare instructions, resulting in faster and more compact code. The status register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine nor restored when returning from an interrupt. This must be handled by software. The status register is accessible in the I/O memory space. 3.8 Stack and Stack Pointer The stack is used for storing return addresses after interrupts and subroutine calls. It can also be used for storing temporary data. The stack pointer (SP) register always points to the top of the stack. It is implemented as two 8-bit registers that are accessible in the I/O memory space. Data are pushed and popped from the stack using the PUSH and POP instructions. The stack grows from a higher memory location to a lower memory location. This implies that pushing data onto the stack decreases the SP, and popping data off the stack increases the SP. The SP is automatically loaded after reset, and the initial value is the highest address of the internal SRAM. If the SP is changed, it must be set to point above address 0x2000, and it must be defined before any subroutine calls are executed or before interrupts are enabled. During interrupts or subroutine calls, the return address is automatically pushed on the stack. The return address can be two or three bytes, depending on program memory size of the device. For devices with 128KB or less of program memory, the return address is two bytes, and hence the stack pointer is decremented/incremented by two. For devices with more than 128KB of program memory, the return address is three bytes, and hence the SP is decremented/incremented by three. The return address is popped off the stack when returning from interrupts using the RETI instruction, and from subroutine calls using the RET instruction. The SP is decremented by one when data are pushed on the stack with the PUSH instruction, and incremented by one when data is popped off the stack using the POP instruction. To prevent corruption when updating the stack pointer from software, a write to SPL will automatically disable interrupts for up to four instructions or until the next I/O memory write. 3.9 Register File The register file consists of 32 x 8-bit general purpose working registers with single clock cycle access time. The register file supports the following input/output schemes: z One 8-bit output operand and one 8-bit result input z Two 8-bit output operands and one 8-bit result input z Two 8-bit output operands and one 16-bit result input z One 16-bit output operand and one 16-bit result input Six of the 32 registers can be used as three 16-bit address register pointers for data space addressing, enabling efficient address calculations. One of these address pointers can also be used as an address pointer for lookup tables in flash program memory. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 11 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 3-4. AVR CPU general purpose working registers. The register file is located in a separate address space, and so the registers are not accessible as data memory. 3.9.1 The X-, Y-, and Z- Registers Registers R26..R31 have added functions besides their general-purpose usage. These registers can form 16-bit address pointers for addressing data memory. These three address registers are called the X-register, Y-register, and Z-register. The Z-register can also be used as an address pointer to read from and/or write to the flash program memory, signature rows, fuses, and lock bits. Figure 3-5. The X-, Y- and Z-registers. 7 0 Addr.

In the different addressing modes, these address registers function as fixed displacement, automatic increment, and automatic decrement (see the instruction set reference for details). 3.10 RAMP and Extended Indirect Registers In order to access program memory or data memory above 64KB, the address pointer must be larger than 16 bits. This is done by concatenating one register to one of the X-, Y-, or Z-registers. This register then holds the most-significant byte (MSB) in a 24-bit address or address pointer. These registers are available only on devices with external bus interface and/or more than 64KB of program or data memory space. For these devices, only the number of bits required to address the whole program and data memory space in the device is implemented in the registers. 3.10.1 RAMPX, RAMPY and RAMPZ Registers The RAMPX, RAMPY and RAMPZ registers are concatenated with the X-, Y-, and Z-registers, respectively, to enable indirect addressing of the whole data memory space above 64KB and up to 16MB. Figure 3-6. The combined RAMPX + X, RAMPY + Y and RAMPZ + Z registers. When reading (ELPM) and writing (SPM) program memory locations above the first 128KB of the program memory, RAMPZ is concatenated with the Z-register to form the 24-bit address. LPM is not affected by the RAMPZ setting. 3.10.2 RAMPD Register This register is concatenated with the operand to enable direct addressing of the whole data memory space above 64KB. Together, RAMPD and the operand will form a 24-bit address. Figure 3-7. The combined RAMPD + K register.

Figure 3-8. The combined EIND + Z register. 3.11 Accessing 16-bit Registers The AVR data bus is 8 bits wide, and so accessing 16-bit registers requires atomic operations. These registers must be byte-accessed using two read or write operations. 16-bit registers are connected to the 8-bit bus and a temporary register using a 16-bit bus. For a write operation, the low byte of the 16-bit register must be written before the high byte. The low byte is then written into the temporary register. When the high byte of the 16-bit register is written, the temporary register is copied into the low byte of the 16-bit register in the same clock cycle. For a read operation, the low byte of the 16-bit register must be read before the high byte. When the low byte register is read by the CPU, the high byte of the 16-bit register is copied into the temporary register in the same clock cycle as the low byte is read. When the high byte is read, it is then read from the temporary register. This ensures that the low and high bytes of 16-bit registers are always accessed simultaneously when reading or writing the register. Interrupts can corrupt the timed sequence if an interrupt is triggered and accesses the same 16-bit register during an atomic 16-bit read/write operation. To prevent this, interrupts can be disabled when writing or reading 16-bit registers. The temporary registers can also be read and written directly from user software. 3.11.1 Accessing 24- and 32-bit Registers For 24- and 32-bit registers, the read and write access is done in the same way as described for 16-bit registers, except there are two temporary registers for 24-bit registers and three for 32-bit registers. The least-significant byte must be written first when doing a write, and read first when doing a read. 3.12 Configuration Change Protection System critical I/O register settings are protected from accidental modification. The SPM instruction is protected from accidental execution, and the LPM instruction is protected when reading the fuses and signature row. This is handled globally by the configuration change protection (CCP) register. Changes to the protected I/O registers or bits, or execution of protected instructions, are only possible after the CPU writes a signature to the CCP register. The different signatures are described in the register description. There are two modes of operation: one for protected I/O registers, and one for the protected instructions, SPM/LPM. 3.12.1 Sequence for write operation to protected I/O registers 1. The application code writes the signature that enable change of protected I/O registers to the CCP register. 2. Within four instruction cycles, the application code must write the appropriate data to the protected register. Most protected registers also contain a write enable/change enable bit. This bit must be written to one in the same operation as the data are written. The protected change is immediately disabled if the CPU performs write operations to the I/O register or data memory or if the SPM, LPM, or SLEEP instruction is executed.

The application code writes the signature for the execution of protected SPM/LPM to the CCP register. 2. Within four instruction cycles, the application code must execute the appropriate instruction. The protected change is immediately disabled if the CPU performs write operations to the data memory or if the SLEEP instruction is executed. Once the correct signature is written by the CPU, interrupts will be ignored for the duration of the configuration change enable period. Any interrupt request (including non-maskable interrupts) during the CCP period will set the corresponding interrupt flag as normal, and the request is kept pending. After the CCP period is completed, any pending interrupts are executed according to their level and priority. DMA requests are still handled, but do not influence the protected configuration change enable period. A signature written by DMA is ignored. 3.13 Fuse Lock For some system-critical features, it is possible to program a fuse to disable all changes to the associated I/O control registers. If this is done, it will not be possible to change the registers from the user software, and the fuse can only be reprogrammed using an external programmer. Details on this are described in the datasheet module where this feature is available. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 15 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 3.14 Register Descriptions 3.14.1 CCP – Configuration Change Protection register z Bit 7:0 – CCP[7:0]: Configuration Change Protection The CCP register must be written with the correct signature to enable change of the protected I/O register or execution of the protected instruction for a maximum period of four CPU instruction cycles. All interrupts are ignored during these cycles. After these cycles, interrupts will automatically be handled again by the CPU, and any pending interrupts will be executed according to their level and priority. When the protected I/O register signature is written, CCP[0] will read as one as long as the protected feature is enabled. Similarly when the protected SPM/LPM signature is written, CCP[1] will read as one as long as the protected feature is enabled. CCP[7:2] will always read as zero. Table 3-1 shows the signature for the various modes. Table 3-1. Modes of CPU change protection. 3.14.2 RAMPD – Extended Direct Addressing register This register is concatenated with the operand for direct addressing (LDS/STS) of the whole data memory space on devices with more than 64KB of data memory. This register is not available if the data memory, including external memory, is less than 64KB. z Bit 7:0 – RAMPD[7:0]: Extended Direct Addressing bits These bits hold the MSB of the 24-bit address created by RAMPD and the 16-bit operand.

Unused bits will always read as zero. 3.14.4 RAMPY – Extended Y-Pointer register This register is concatenated with the Y-register for indirect addressing (LD/LDD/ST/STD) of the whole data memory space on devices with more than 64KB of data memory. This register is not available if the data memory, including external memory, is less than 64KB. z Bit 7:0 – RAMPY[7:0]: Extended Y-pointer Address bits These bits hold the MSB of the 24-bit address created by RAMPY and the 16-bit Y-register.

Unused bits will always read as zero. 3.14.5 RAMPZ – Extended Z-Pointer register This register is concatenated with the Z-register for indirect addressing (LD/LDD/ST/STD) of the whole data memory space on devices with more than 64KB of data memory. RAMPZ is concatenated with the Z-register when reading (ELPM) program memory locations above the first 64KB and writing (SPM) program memory locations above the first 128KB of the program memory. This register is not available if the data memory, including external memory and program memory in the device, is less than 64KB. z Bit 7:0 – RAMPZ[7:0]: Extended Z-pointer Address bits These bits hold the MSB of the 24-bit address created by RAMPZ and the 16-bit Z-register.

The register should be used for jumps to addresses below 128KB if ECALL/EIJMP are used, and it will not be used if CALL and IJMP commands are used. For jump or call to addresses below 128KB, this register is not used. This register is not available if the program memory in the device is less than 128KB. z Bit 7:0 – EIND[7:0]: Extended Indirect Address bits These bits hold the MSB of the 24-bit address created by EIND and the 16-bit Z-register. Only the number of bits required to access the available program memory is implemented for each device. Unused bits will always read as zero. 3.14.7 SPL – Stack Pointer Register Low The SPH and SPL register pair represent the 16-bit SP value. The SP holds the stack pointer that points to the top of the stack. After reset, the stack pointer points to the highest internal SRAM address. To prevent corruption when updating the stack pointer from software, a write to SPL will automatically disable interrupts for the next four instructions or until the next I/O memory write. Only the number of bits required to address the available data memory, including external memory, up to 64KB is implemented for each device. Unused bits will always read as zero. Note: 1. Refer to specific device datasheets for exact initial values. z Bit 7:0 – SP[7:0]: Stack Pointer Register Low These bits hold the LSB of the 16-bit stack pointer (SP). 3.14.8 SPH – Stack Pointer Register High Note: 1.

If the global interrupt enable register is cleared, none of the interrupts are enabled independent of the individual interrupt enable settings. This bit is not cleared by hardware after an interrupt has occurred. This bit can be set and cleared by the application with the SEI and CLI instructions, as described in “Instruction Set Description.” Changing the I flag through the I/O-register result in a onecycle wait state on the access. z Bit 6 – T: Bit Copy Storage The bit copy instructions bit load (BLD) and bit store (BST) use the T bit as source or destination for the operated bit. A bit from a register in the register file can be copied into this bit by the BST instruction, and this bit can be copied into a bit in a register in the register file by the BLD instruction. z Bit 5 – H: Half Carry Flag The half carry flag (H) indicates a half carry in some arithmetic operations. Half carry Is useful in BCD arithmetic. See “Instruction Set Description” for detailed information. z Bit 4 – S: Sign Bit, S = N ⊕ V The sign bit is always an exclusive or between the negative flag, N, and the two’s complement overflow flag, V.

See “Instruction Set Description” for detailed information. z Bit 2 – N: Negative Flag The negative flag (N) indicates a negative result in an arithmetic or logic operation. See “Instruction Set Description” for detailed information. z Bit 1 – Z: Zero Flag The zero flag (Z) indicates a zero result in an arithmetic or logic operation.

The AVR architecture has two main memory spaces, the program memory and the data memory. Executable code can reside only in the program memory, while data can be stored in the program memory and the data memory. The data memory includes the internal SRAM, and EEPROM for nonvolatile data storage. All memory spaces are linear and require no memory bank switching. Nonvolatile memory (NVM) spaces can be locked for further write and read/write operations. This prevents unrestricted access to the application software. A separate memory section contains the fuse bytes. These are used for configuring important system functions, and can only be written by an external programmer. 4.3 Flash Program Memory All XMEGA devices contain on-chip, in-system reprogrammable flash memory for program storage. The flash memory can be accessed for read and write from an external programmer through the PDI or from application software running in the device. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 21 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 All AVR CPU instructions are 16 or 32 bits wide, and each flash location is 16 bits wide. The flash memory is organized in two main sections, the application section and the boot loader section, as shown in Figure 4-1 on page 21. The sizes of the different sections are fixed, but device-dependent. These two sections have separate lock bits, and can have different levels of protection. The store program memory (SPM) instruction, which is used to write to the flash from the application software, will only operate when executed from the boot loader section. The application section contains an application table section with separate lock settings. This enables safe storage of nonvolatile data in the program memory. Figure 4-1. Flash memory sections. 4.3.1 Application Section The Application section is the section of the flash that is used for storing the executable application code. The protection level for the application section can be selected by the boot lock bits for this section. The application section can not store any boot loader code since the SPM instruction cannot be executed from the application section. 4.3.2 Application Table Section The application table section is a part of the application section of the flash memory that can be used for storing data. The size is identical to the boot loader section. The protection level for the application table section can be selected by the boot lock bits for this section. The possibilities for different protection levels on the application section and the application table section enable safe parameter storage in the program memory. If this section is not used for data, application code can reside here. 4.3.3 Boot Loader Section While the application section is used for storing the application code, the boot loader software must be located in the boot loader section because the SPM instruction can only initiate programming when executing from this section. The SPM instruction can access the entire flash, including the boot loader section itself. The protection level for the boot loader section can be selected by the boot loader lock bits. If this section is not used for boot loader software, application code can be stored here. Application Flash Section 0x000000 End Application Start Boot Loader Flashend Application Table Flash Section Boot Loader Flash Section XMEGA B [MANUAL] 22 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 4.3.4 Production Signature Row The production signature row is a separate memory section for factory programmed data. It contains calibration data for functions such as oscillators and analog modules. Some of the calibration values will be automatically loaded to the corresponding module or peripheral unit during reset. Other values must be loaded from the signature row and written to the corresponding peripheral registers from software. For details on calibration conditions such as temperature, voltage references, etc., refer to the device datasheet. The production signature row also contains an ID that identifies each microcontroller device type and a serial number for each manufactured device. The serial number consists of the production lot number, wafer number, and wafer coordinates for the device. The production signature row cannot be written or erased, but it can be read from application software and external programmers. For accessing the production signature row, refer to “NVM Flash Commands” on page 380. 4.3.5 User Signature Row The user signature row is a separate memory section that is fully accessible (read and write) from application software and external programmers. It is one flash page in size, and is meant for static user parameter storage, such as calibration data, custom serial number, identification numbers, random number seeds, etc. This section is not erased by chip erase commands that erase the flash, and requires a dedicated erase command. This ensures parameter storage during multiple program/erase operations and on-chip debug sessions. 4.4 Fuses and Lockbits The fuses are used to configure important system functions, and can only be written from an external programmer. The application software can read the fuses. The fuses are used to configure reset sources such as brownout detector, watchdog and startup configuration. The lock bits are used to set protection levels for the different flash sections (i.e., if read and/or write access should be blocked). Lock bits can be written by external programmers and application software, but only to stricter protection levels. Chip erase is the only way to erase the lock bits. To ensure that flash contents are protected even during chip erase, the lock bits are erased after the rest of the flash memory has been erased. An unprogrammed fuse or lock bit will have the value one, while a programmed fuse or lock bit will have the value zero. Both fuses and lock bits are reprogrammable like the flash program memory. For some fuse bytes, leaving them unprogrammed (0xFF) will result in invalid settings. The user must ensure that the fuse bytes are programmed to values which give valid settings. Refer to the detailed description of the individual fuse bytes for further information. 4.5 Data Memory The data memory contains the I/O memory, internal SRAM, optionally memory mapped and EEPROM. The data memory is organized as one continuous memory section, as shown in Figure 4-2 on page 23. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 23 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 4-2. Data memory map. I/O memory, EEPROM, and SRAM will always have the same start addresses for all XMEGA devices. 4.6 Internal SRAM The internal SRAM always starts at hexadecimal address 0x2000. SRAM is accessed by the CPU using the load (LD/LDS/LDD) and store (ST/STS/STD) instructions. 4.7 EEPROM All XMEGA devices have EEPROM for nonvolatile data storage. It is addressable in a separate data space (default) or memory mapped and accessed in normal data space. The EEPROM supports both byte and page access. Memory mapped EEPROM allows highly efficient EEPROM reading and EEPROM buffer loading. When doing this, EEPROM is accessible using load and store instructions. Memory mapped EEPROM will always start at hexadecimal address 0x1000. 4.8 I/O Memory The status and configuration registers for peripherals and modules, including the CPU, are addressable through I/O memory locations. All I/O locations can be accessed by the load (LD/LDS/LDD) and store (ST/STS/STD) instructions, which are used to transfer data between the 32 registers in the register file and the I/O memory. The IN and OUT instructions can address I/O memory locations in the range of 0x00 to 0x3F directly. In the address range 0x00 - 0x1F, single-cycle instructions for manipulation and checking of individual bits are available. 4.8.1 General Purpose I/O Registers The lowest 4 I/O memory addresses are reserved as general purpose I/O registers. These registers can be used for storing global variables and flags, as they are directly bit-accessible using the SBI, CBI, SBIS, and SBIC instructions. 4.9 Data Memory and Bus Arbitration Since the data memory is organized as four separate sets of memories, the different bus masters (CPU, DMA controller read and DMA controller write, etc.) can access different memory sections at the same time. See Figure 4-3 on page 24. I/O Memory (Up to 4 KB) EEPROM (Up to 4 KB) Internal SRAM 0x0000 0x1000 0x2000 Start/End Address Data Memory XMEGA B [MANUAL] 24 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 The USB module acts as a bus master, and is connected directly to internal SRAM through a pseudo-dual-port (PDP) interface. Figure 4-3. Bus access. 4.9.1 Bus Priority When several masters request access to the same bus, the bus priority is in the following order (from higher to lower priority): 1. Bus Master with ongoing access. 2. Bus Master with ongoing burst. z Alternating DMA controller read and DMA controller write when they access the same data memory section. 3. Bus Master requesting burst access. z CPU has priority. 4. Bus Master requesting bus access. z CPU has priority. 4.10 Memory Timing Read and write access to the I/O memory takes one CPU clock cycle. A write to SRAM takes one cycle, and a read from SRAM takes two cycles. For burst read (DMA), new data are available every cycle. EEPROM page load (write) takes one cycle, and three cycles are required for read. For burst read, new data are available every second cycle. Refer to the instruction summary for more details on instructions and instruction timing. 4.11 Device ID and Revision Each device has a three-byte device ID. This ID identifies Atmel as the manufacturer of the device and the device type. A separate register contains the revision number of the device. Peripherals and system modules Bus matrix DMA CPU RAM OCD USART SPI Timer / Counter TWI USB Interrupt Controller Power Management SRAM External Programming AVR core PDI CH0 ADC AC Crypto modules Event System Controller Oscillator Control CH1 Non-Volatile Memory EEPROM Flash CRC Real Time Counter I/O NVM Controller XMEGA B [MANUAL] 25 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 4.12 I/O Memory Protection Some features in the device are regarded as critical for safety in some applications. Due to this, it is possible to lock the I/O register related to the clock system, the event system, and the advanced waveform extensions. As long as the lock is enabled, all related I/O registers are locked and they can not be written from the application software. The lock registers themselves are protected by the configuration change protection mechanism. For details, refer to “Configuration Change Protection” on page 13.

It enables high data transfer rates with minimum CPU intervention, and frees up CPU time. The two DMA channels enable up to two independent and parallel transfers. The DMA controller can move data between SRAM and peripherals, between SRAM locations and directly between peripheral registers. With access to all peripherals, the DMA controller can handle automatic transfer of data to/from communication modules. The DMA controller can also read from memory mapped EEPROM. Data transfers are done in continuous bursts of 1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes. They build block transfers of configurable size from 1 byte to 64KB. A repeat counter can be used to repeat each block transfer for single transactions up to 16MB. Source and destination addressing can be static, incremental or decremental. Automatic reload of source and/or destination addresses can be done after each burst or block transfer, or when a transaction is complete. Application software, peripherals, and events can trigger DMA transfers. The two DMA channels have individual configuration and control settings. This include source, destination, transfer triggers, and transaction sizes. They have individual interrupt settings. Interrupt requests can be generated when a transaction is complete or when the DMA controller detects an error on a DMA channel. To allow for continuous transfers, two channels can be interlinked so that the second takes over the transfer when the first is finished, and vice versa. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 48 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 5-1. DMA Overview. 5.3 DMA Transaction A complete DMA read and write operation between memories and/or peripherals is called a DMA transaction. A transaction is done in data blocks, and the size of the transaction (number of bytes to transfer) is selectable from software and controlled by the block size and repeat counter settings. Each block transfer is divided into smaller bursts. 5.3.1 Block Transfer and Repeat The size of the block transfer is set by the block transfer count register, and can be anything from 1 byte to 64KB. A repeat counter can be enabled to set a number of repeated block transfers before a transaction is complete. The repeat is from 1 to 255, and an unlimited repeat count can be achieved by setting the repeat count to zero. 5.3.2 Burst Transfer Since the AVR CPU and DMA controller use the same data buses, a block transfer is divided into smaller burst transfers. The burst transfer is selectable to 1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes. This means that if the DMA acquires the data bus and a transfer request is pending, it will occupy the bus until all bytes in the burst are transferred. A bus arbiter controls when the DMA controller and the AVR CPU can use the bus. The CPU always has priority, and so as long as the CPU requests access to the bus, any pending burst transfer must wait. The CPU requests bus access when it executes an instruction that writes or reads data to SRAM, I/O memory, EEPROM or the external bus interface. For more details on memory access bus arbitration, refer to “Data Memory” on page 22. Figure 5-2. DMA transaction. R/W Master port Arbitration BUF Bus matrix Arbiter Read Write Slave port Read / Write CTRL DMA Channel 1 DMA trigger / Event DMA Channel 0 SRCADDR TRFCNT DESTADDR TRIGSRC REPCNT Control Logic Enable Burst CTRLA CTRLB XMEGA B [MANUAL] 49 8291C–AVR–09/2014 5.4 Transfer Triggers DMA transfers can be started only when a DMA transfer request is detected. A transfer request can be triggered from software, from an external trigger source (peripheral), or from an event. There are dedicated source trigger selections for each DMA channel. The available trigger sources may vary from device to device, depending on the modules or peripherals that exist in the device. Using a transfer trigger for a module or peripherals that does not exist will have no effect. For a list of all transfer triggers, refer to “TRIGSRC – Trigger Source” on page 57. By default, a trigger starts a block transfer operation. When the block transfer is complete, the channel is automatically disabled. When enabled again, the channel will wait for the next block transfer trigger. It is possible to select the trigger to start a burst transfer instead of a block transfer. This is called a single-shot transfer, and for each trigger only one burst is transferred. When repeat mode is enabled, the next block transfer does not require a transfer trigger. It will start as soon as the previous block is done. If the trigger source generates a transfer request during an ongoing transfer, this will be kept pending, and the transfer can start when the ongoing one is done. Only one pending transfer can be kept, and so if the trigger source generates more transfer requests when one is already pending, these will be lost. 5.5 Addressing The source and destination address for a DMA transfer can either be static or automatically incremented or decremented, with individual selections for source and destination. When address increment or decrement is used, the default behaviour is to update the address after each access. The original source and destination addresses are stored by the DMA controller, and so the source and destination addresses can be individually configured to be reloaded at the following points: z End of each burst transfer z End of each block transfer z End of transaction z Never reloaded 5.6 Priority Between Channels If several channels request a data transfer at the same time, a priority scheme is available to determine which channel is allowed to transfer data. Application software can decide whether one or more channels should have a fixed priority or if a round robin scheme should be used. A round robin scheme means that the channel that last transferred data will have the lowest priority. 5.7 Double Buffering To allow for continuous transfer, two channels can be interlinked so that the second takes over the transfer when the first is finished, and vice versa. This leaves time for the application to process the data transferred by the first channel, prepare fresh data buffers, and set up the channel registers again while the second channel is working. This is referred to as double buffering or chained transfers. When double buffering is enabled for a channel pair, it is important that the two channels are configured with the same repeat count. The block sizes need not be equal, but for most applications they should be, along with the rest of the channel’s operation mode settings. Note that the double buffering channel pairs are limited to channels 0 and 1 as the first pair and channels 2 and 3 as the second pair. However, it is possible to have one pair operate in double buffered mode while the other is left unused or operating independently. 5.8 Transfer Buffers To avoid unnecessary bus loading when doing data transfer between memories with different access timing (for example, I/O register and external memory), the DMA controller has a four-byte buffer. Two bytes will be read from the source address and written to this buffer before a write to the destination is started. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 50 8291C–AVR–09/2014 5.9 Error detection The DMA controller can detect erroneous operation. Error conditions are detected individually for each DMA channel, and the error conditions are: z Write to memory mapped EEPROM locations z Reading EEPROM when the EEPROM is off (sleep entered) z DMA controller or a busy channel is disabled in software during a transfer 5.10 Software Reset Both the DMA controller and a DMA channel can be reset from the user software. When the DMA controller is reset, all registers associated with the DMA controller, including channels, are cleared. A software reset can be done only when the DMA controller is disabled. When a DMA channel is reset, all registers associated with the DMA channel are cleared. A software reset can be done only when the DMA channel is disabled. 5.11 Protection In order to ensure safe operation, some of the channel registers are protected during a transaction. When the DMA channel busy flag (CHnBUSY) is set for a channel, the user can modify only the following registers and bits: z CTRL register z INTFLAGS register z TEMP registers z CHEN, CHRST, TRFREQ, and REPEAT bits of the channel CTRL register z TRIGSRC register 5.12 Interrupts The DMA controller can generate interrupts when an error is detected on a DMA channel or when a transaction is complete for a DMA channel. Each DMA channel has a separate interrupt vector, and there are different interrupt flags for error and transaction complete. If repeat is not enabled, the transaction complete flag is set at the end of the block transfer. If unlimited repeat is enabled, the transaction complete flag is also set at the end of each block transfer.

If the DMA channel is enabled and this bit is written to zero, the CHEN bit is not cleared until the internal transfer buffer is empty and the DMA transfer is aborted. z Bit 6 – RESET: Software Reset Setting this bit will reset the DMA channel. It can only be set when the DMA channel is disabled (CHEN = 0). Writing a one to this bit will be ignored as long as the channel is enabled (CHEN=1). This bit is automatically cleared when reset is completed. z Bit 5 – REPEAT: Repeat Mode Setting this bit enables the repeat mode. In repeat mode, this bit is cleared by hardware at the beginning of the last block transfer. The REPCNT register should be configured before setting the REPEAT bit. z Bit 4 – TRFREQ: Transfer Request Setting this bit requests a data transfer on the DMA channel. This bit is automatically cleared at the beginning of the data transfer. Writing this bit does not have any effect unless the channel is enabled. z Bit 3 – Reserved This bit is unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write this bit to zero when this register is written. z Bit 2 – SINGLE: Single-Shot Data transfer Setting this bit enables the single-shot mode. The channel will then do a burst transfer of BURSTLEN bytes on the transfer trigger. A write to this bit will be ignored while the channel is enabled.

Summary of triggers, transaction complete flag and channel disable according to DMA channel configuration. 5.14.2 CTRLB – Control register B z Bit 7 – CHBUSY: Channel Busy When the DMA channel starts a DMA transaction, the CHBUSY flag will be read as one.

This flag is automatically cleared when the transfer starts or if the transfer is aborted. z Bit 5 – ERRIF: Error Interrupt Flag If an error condition is detected on the DMA channel, the ERRIF flag will be set and the optional interrupt is generated. Since the DMA channel error interrupt shares the interrupt address with the DMA channel n transaction complete interrupt, ERRIF will not be cleared when the interrupt vector is executed. This flag is cleared by writing a one to this location. z Bit 4 – TRNIF: Channel n Transaction Complete Interrupt Flag When a transaction on the DMA channel has been completed, the TRNIF flag will be set and the optional interrupt is generated. When repeat is not enabled, the transaction is complete and TRNIFR is set after the block transfer. When unlimited repeat is enabled, TRNIF is also set after each block transfer. Since the DMA channel transaction n complete interrupt shares the interrupt address with the DMA channel error interrupt, TRNIF will not be cleared when the interrupt vector is executed. This flag is cleared by writing a one to this location. z Bit 3:2 – ERRINTLVL[1:0]: Channel Error Interrupt Level These bits enable the interrupt for DMA channel transfer errors and select the interrupt level, as described in “Interrupts and Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller” on page 115. The enabled interrupt will trigger for the conditions when ERRIF is set. z Bit 1:0 – TRNINTLVL[1:0]: Channel Transaction Complete Interrupt Level These bits enable the interrupt for DMA channel transaction completes and select the interrupt level, as described in “Interrupts and Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller” on page 115. The enabled interrupt will trigger for the conditions when TRNIF is set. 5.14.3 ADDRCTRL – Address Control register z Bit 7:6 – SRCRELOAD[1:0]: Channel Source Address Reload These bits decide the DMA channel source address reload according to Table 5-4.

A zero value means that the trigger source is disabled. For each trigger source, the value to put in the TRIGSRC register is the sum of the module’s or peripheral’s base value and the offset value for the trigger source in the module or peripheral. Table 5-8 on page 57 shows the base value for all modules and peripherals. Table 5-9 on page 58 to Table 5-11 on page 58 shows the offset value for the trigger sources in the different modules and peripheral types. For modules or peripherals which do not exist for a device, the transfer trigger does not exist. Refer to the device datasheet for the list of peripherals available. If the interrupt flag related to the trigger source is cleared or the interrupt level enabled so that an interrupt is triggered, the DMA request will be lost. Since a DMA request can clear the interrupt flag, interrupts can be lost. Note: For most trigger sources, the request is cleared by accessing a register belonging to the peripheral with the request. Refer to the different peripheral chapters for how requests are generated and cleared. Table 5-8. DMA trigger source base values for all modules and peripherals.

TRFCNT defines the number of bytes in a block transfer. The value of TRFCNT is decremented after each byte read by the DMA channel. When TRFCNT reaches zero, the register is reloaded with the last value written to it. z Bit 7:0 – TRFCNT[7:0]: Channel n Block Transfer Count low byte These bits hold the LSB of the 16-bit block transfer count. The default value of this register is 0x1. If a user writes 0x0 to this register and fires a DMA trigger, DMA will be doing 0xFFFF transfers. Table 5-9.

For details, refer to “Accessing 16-bit Registers” on page 13. z Bit 7:0 – TRFCNT[15:8]: Channel n Block Transfer Count high byte These bits hold the MSB of the 16-bit block transfer count. The default value of this register is 0x1. If a user writes 0x0 to this register and fires a DMA trigger, DMA will be doing 0xFFFF transfers. 5.14.7 REPCNT – Repeat Counter register REPCNT counts how many times a block transfer is performed. For each block transfer, this register will be decremented. When repeat mode is enabled (see REPEAT bit in “ADDRCTRL – Address Control register” on page 55), this register is used to control when the transaction is complete. The counter is decremented after each block transfer if the DMA has to serve a limited number of repeated block transfers. When repeat mode is enabled, the channel is disabled when REPCNT reaches zero and the last block transfer is completed. Unlimited repeat is achieved by setting this register to zero. 5.14.8 SRCADDR0 – Source Address 0 SRCADDR0, SRCADDR1, and SRCADDR2 represent the 24-bit value SRCADDR, which is the DMA channel source address. SRCADDR2 is the most significant byte in the register. SRCADDR may be automatically incremented or decremented based on settings in the SRCDIR bits in “ADDRCTRL – Address Control register” on page 55. z Bit 7:0 – SRCADDR[7:0]: Channel Source Address byte 0 These bits hold byte 0 of the 24-bit source address.

DESTADDR2 holds the most significant byte in the register. DESTADDR may be automatically incremented or decremented based on settings in the DESTDIR bits in “ADDRCTRL – Address Control register” on page 55. z Bit 7:0 – DESTADDR[7:0]: Channel Destination Address byte 0 These bits hold byte 0 of the 24-bit source address.

Event System 6.1 Features z System for direct peripheral-to-peripheral communication and signaling z Peripherals can directly send, receive, and react to peripheral events z CPU and DMA controller independent operation z 100% predictable signal timing z Short and guaranteed response time z Four event channels for up to eight different and parallel signal routings and configurations z Events can be sent and/or used by most peripherals, clock system, and software z Additional functions include z Quadrature decoders z Digital filtering of I/O pin state z Works in active mode and idle sleep mode 6.2 Overview The event system enables direct peripheral-to-peripheral communication and signaling. It allows a change in one peripheral’s state to automatically trigger actions in other peripherals. It is designed to provide a predictable system for short and predictable response times between peripherals. It allows for autonomous peripheral control and interaction without the use of interrupts CPU or DMA controller resources, and is thus a powerful tool for reducing the complexity, size and execution time of application code. It also allows for synchronized timing of actions in several peripheral modules. A change in a peripheral’s state is referred to as an event, and usually corresponds to the peripheral’s interrupt conditions. Events can be directly passed to other peripherals using a dedicated routing network called the event routing network. How events are routed and used by the peripherals is configured in software. Figure 6-1 on page 64 shows a basic diagram of all connected peripherals. The event system can directly connect together analog converters, analog comparators, I/O port pins, the real-time counter, timer/counters, IR communication module (IRCOM) and USB interface. It can also be used to trigger DMA transactions (DMA controller). Events can also be generated from software and the peripheral clock. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 64 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 6-1. Event system overview and connected peripherals. The event routing network consists of four software-configurable multiplexers that control how events are routed and used. These are called event channels, and allow for up to four parallel event configurations and routings. The maximum routing latency is two peripheral clock cycles. The event system works in both active mode and idle sleep mode. 6.3 Events In the context of the event system, an indication that a change of state within a peripheral has occurred is called an event. There are two main types of events: signaling events and data events. Signaling events only indicate a change of state while data events contain additional information about the event. The peripheral from which the event originates is called the event generator. Within each peripheral (for example, a timer/counter), there can be several event sources, such as a timer compare match or timer overflow. The peripheral using the event is called the event user, and the action that is triggered is called the event action. Timer / Counters USB ADC Real Time Counter Port pins CPU / Software DMA Controller IRCOM Event Routing Network Event System Controller clkPER Prescaler AC XMEGA B [MANUAL] 65 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 6-2. Example of event source, generator, user, and action. Events can also be generated manually in software. 6.3.1 Signaling Events Signaling events are the most basic type of event. A signaling event does not contain any information apart from the indication of a change in a peripheral. Most peripherals can only generate and use signaling events. Unless otherwise stated, all occurrences of the word ”event” are to be understood as meaning signaling events. 6.3.2 Data Events Data events differ from signaling events in that they contain information that event users can decode to decide event actions based on the receiver information. Although the event routing network can route all events to all event users, those that are only meant to use signaling events do not have decoding capabilities needed to utilize data events. How event users decode data events is shown in Table 6-1 on page 66. Event users that can utilize data events can also use signaling events. This is configurable, and is described in the datasheet module for each peripheral. 6.3.3 Peripheral Clock Events Each event channel includes a peripheral clock prescaler with a range from 1 (no prescaling) to 32768. This enables configurable periodic event generation based on the peripheral clock. It is possible to periodically trigger events in a peripheral or to periodically trigger synchronized events in several peripherals. Since each event channel include a prescaler, different peripherals can receive triggers with different intervals. 6.3.4 Software Events Events can be generated from software by writing the DATA and STROBE registers. The DATA register must be written first, since writing the STROBE register triggers the operation. The DATA and STROBE registers contain one bit for each event channel. Bit n corresponds to event channel n. It is possible to generate events on several channels at the same time by writing to several bit locations at once. Software-generated events last for one clock cycle and will overwrite events from other event generators on that event channel during that clock cycle. Table 6-1 on page 66 shows the different events, how they can be manually generated, and how they are decoded.

Manually generated events and decoding of events. 6.4 Event Routing Network The event routing network routes the events between peripherals. It consists of eight multiplexers (CHnMUX), which can each be configured to route any event source to any event users. The output from a multiplexer is referred to as an event channel. For each peripheral, it is selectable if and how incoming events should trigger event actions. Details on configurations can be found in the datasheet for each peripheral. The event routing network is shown in Figure 6-3 on page 67. STROBE DATA Data Event User Signaling Event User 0 0 No event No event 0 1 Data event 01 No event 1 0 Data event 02 Signaling event 1 1 Data event 03 Signaling event XMEGA B [MANUAL] 67 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 6-3. Event routing network. Four multiplexers means that it is possible to route up to four events at the same time. It is also possible to route one event through several multiplexers. Not all XMEGA devices contain all peripherals. This only means that a peripheral is not available for generating or using events. The network configuration itself is compatible between all devices. 6.5 Event Timing An event normally lasts for one peripheral clock cycle, but some event sources, such as a low level on an I/O pin, will generate events continuously. Details on this are described in the datasheet for each peripheral, but unless otherwise stated, an event lasts for one peripheral clock cycle.

This ensures short and 100% predictable response times, independent of CPU or DMA controller load or software revisions. 6.6 Filtering Each event channel includes a digital filter. When this is enabled, an event must be sampled with the same value for a configurable number of system clock cycles before it is accepted. This is primarily intended for pin change events. 6.7 Quadrature Decoder The event system includes one quadrature decoder (QDEC), which enable the device to decode quadrature input on I/O pins and send data events that a timer/counter can decode to count up, count down, or index/reset. Table 6-2 summarizes which quadrature decoder data events are available, how they are decoded, and how they can be generated. The QDEC and related features, control and status registers are available for event channel 0. Table 6-2. Quadrature decoder data events. 6.7.1 Quadrature Operation A quadrature signal is characterized by having two square waves that are phase shifted 90 degrees relative to each other. Rotational movement can be measured by counting the edges of the two waveforms. The phase relationship between the two square waves determines the direction of rotation. Figure 6-4. Quadrature signals from a rotary encoder. Figure 6-4 shows typical quadrature signals from a rotary encoder. The signals QDPH0 and QDPH90 are the two quadrature signals. When QDPH90 leads QDPH0, the rotation is defined as positive or forward. When QDPH0 leads QDPH90, the rotation is defined as negative or reverse. The concatenation of the two phase signals is called the quadrature state or the phase state. STROBE DATA Data Event User Signaling Event User 0 0 No event No event 0 1 Index/reset No event 1 0 Count down Signaling event 1 1 Count up Signaling event XMEGA B [MANUAL] 69 8291C–AVR–09/2014 In order to know the absolute rotary displacement, a third index signal (QINDX) can be used. This gives an indication once per revolution. 6.7.2 QDEC Setup For a full QDEC setup, the following is required: z Tho or three I/O port pins for quadrature signal input z Two event system channels for quadrature decoding z One timer/counter for up, down, and optional index count The following procedure should be used for QDEC setup: 1. Choose two successive pins on a port as QDEC phase inputs. 2. Set the pin direction for QDPH0 and QDPH90 as input. 3. Set the pin configuration for QDPH0 and QDPH90 to low level sense. 4. Select the QDPH0 pin as a multiplexer input for an event channel, n. 5. Enable quadrature decoding and digital filtering in the event channel. 6. Optional: 1. Set up a QDEC index (QINDX). 2. Select a third pin for QINDX input. 3. Set the pin direction for QINDX as input. 4. Set the pin configuration for QINDX to sense both edges. 5. Select QINDX as a multiplexer input for event channel n+1 6. Set the quadrature index enable bit in event channel n+1. 7. Select the index recognition mode for event channel n+1. 7. Set quadrature decoding as the event action for a timer/counter. 8. Select event channel n as the event source for the timer/counter. z Set the period register of the timer/counter to ('line count' * 4 - 1), the line count of the quadrature encoder. z Enable the timer/counter without clock prescaling. The angle of a quadrature encoder attached to QDPH0, QDPH90 (and QINDX) can now be read directly from the timer/counter count register.

Similarly, the error flag is set if the position counter passes BOTTOM without the recognition of the index.

It incorporates both accurate internal oscillators and external crystal oscillator and resonator support. A high-frequency phase locked loop (PLL) and clock prescalers can be used to generate a wide range of clock frequencies. A calibration feature (DFLL) is available, and can be used for automatic run-time calibration of the internal oscillators to remove frequency drift over voltage and temperature. An oscillator failure monitor can be enabled to issue a non-maskable interrupt and switch to the internal oscillator if the external oscillator or PLL fails. When a reset occurs, all clock sources except the 32kHz ultra low power oscillator are disabled. After reset, the device will always start up running from the 2MHz internal oscillator. During normal operation, the system clock source and prescalers can be changed from software at any time. Figure 7-1 on page 76 presents the principal clock system in the XMEGA family of devices. Not all of the clocks need to be active at a given time. The clocks for the CPU and peripherals can be stopped using sleep modes and power reduction registers, as described in “Power Management and Sleep Modes” on page 94.

This is fed into the prescalers that are used to generate all internal clocks except the asynchronous and USB clocks. 7.3.2 CPU Clock - ClkCPU The CPU clock is routed to the CPU and nonvolatile memory. Halting the CPU clock inhibits the CPU from executing instructions. 7.3.3 Peripheral Clock - ClkPER The majority of peripherals and system modules use the peripheral clock. This includes the DMA controller, event system, interrupt controller, external bus interface and RAM. This clock is always synchronous to the CPU clock, but may run even when the CPU clock is turned off. 7.3.4 Peripheral 2x/4x Clocks - ClkPER2/ClkPER4 Modules that can run at two or four times the CPU clock frequency can use the peripheral 2x and peripheral 4x clocks. 7.3.5 Asynchronous Clock - ClkRTC The asynchronous clock allows the real-time counter (RTC) to be clocked directly from an external 32.768kHz crystal oscillator or the 32 times prescaled output from the internal 32.768kHz oscillator or ULP oscillator. The dedicated clock domain allows operation of this peripheral even when the device is in sleep mode and the rest of the clocks are stopped. 7.3.6 USB Clock - ClkUSB The USB device module requires a 12MHz or 48MHz clock. It has a separate clock source selection in order to avoid system clock source limitations when USB is used. 7.4 Clock Sources The clock sources are divided in two main groups: internal oscillators and external clock sources. Most of the clock sources can be directly enabled and disabled from software, while others are automatically enabled or disabled, depending on peripheral settings. After reset, the device starts up running from the 2MHz internal oscillator. The other clock sources, DFLLs and PLL, are turned off by default. 7.4.1 Internal Oscillators The internal oscillators do not require any external components to run. For details on characteristics and accuracy of the internal oscillators, refer to the device datasheet. 7.4.1.1 32kHz Ultra Low Power Oscillator This oscillator provides an approximate 32kHz clock. The 32kHz ultra low power (ULP) internal oscillator is a very low power clock source, and it is not designed for high accuracy.The oscillator employs a built-in prescaler that provides a 1kHz output, see “RTCCTRL – RTC Control register” on page 85 for details. The oscillator is automatically enabled/disabled when it is used as clock source for any part of the device. This oscillator can be selected as the clock source for the RTC. 7.4.1.2 32.768kHz Calibrated Oscillator This oscillator provides an approximate 32.768kHz clock. It is calibrated during production to provide a default frequency close to its nominal frequency. The calibration register can also be written from software for run-time calibration of the oscillator frequency. The oscillator employs a built-in prescaler, which provides both a 32.768kHz output and a 1.024kHz XMEGA B [MANUAL] 78 8291C–AVR–09/2014 output, see “RTCCTRL – RTC Control register” on page 85 for details. 7.4.1.3 32MHz Run-time Calibrated Oscillator The 32MHz run-time calibrated internal oscillator is a high-frequency oscillator. It is calibrated during production to provide a default frequency close to its nominal frequency. A digital frequency looked loop (DFLL) can be enabled for automatic run-time calibration of the oscillator to compensate for temperature and voltage drift and optimize the oscillator accuracy. This oscillator can also be adjusted and calibrated to any frequency between 30MHz and 55MHz. The production signature row contains 48 MHz calibration values intended used when the oscillator is used a full-speed USB clock source. 7.4.1.4 2MHz Run-time Calibrated Oscillator The 2MHz run-time calibrated internal oscillator is the default system clock source after reset. It is calibrated during production to provide a default frequency close to its nominal frequency. A DFLL can be enabled for automatic run-time calibration of the oscillator to compensate for temperature and voltage drift and optimize the oscillator accuracy. 7.4.2 External Clock Sources The XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins can be used to drive an external oscillator, either a quartz crystal or a ceramic resonator. XTAL1 can be used as input for an external clock signal. The TOSC1 and TOSC2 pins is dedicated to driving a 32.768kHz crystal oscillator. 7.4.2.1 0.4MHz - 16MHz Crystal Oscillator This oscillator can operate in four different modes optimized for different frequency ranges, all within 0.4MHz - 16MHz. Figure 7-2 shows a typical connection of a crystal oscillator or resonator. Figure 7-2. Crystal oscillator connection. Two capacitors, C1 and C2, may be added to match the required load capacitance for the connected crystal. 7.4.2.2 External Clock Input To drive the device from an external clock source, XTAL1 must be driven as shown in Figure 7-3 on page 78. In this mode, XTAL2 can be used as a general I/O pin. Figure 7-3. External clock drive configuration. C1 C2 XTAL2 XTAL1 GND General Purpose I/O XTAL2 XTAL1 External Clock Signal XMEGA B [MANUAL] 79 8291C–AVR–09/2014 7.4.2.3 32.768kHz Crystal Oscillator A 32.768kHz crystal oscillator can be connected between the TOSC1 and TOSC2 pins and enables a dedicated low frequency oscillator input circuit. A typical connection is shown in Figure 7-4 on page 79. A low power mode with reduced voltage swing on TOSC2 is available. This oscillator can be used as a clock source for the system clock and RTC, and as the DFLL reference clock. Figure 7-4. 32.768kHz crystal oscillator connection. Two capacitors, C1 and C2, may be added to match the required load capacitance for the connected crystal. For details on recommended TOSC characteristics and capacitor load, refer to device datasheets. 7.5 System Clock Selection and Prescalers All the calibrated internal oscillators, the external clock sources (XOSC), and the PLL output can be used as the system clock source. The system clock source is selectable from software, and can be changed during normal operation. Built-in hardware protection prevents unsafe clock switching. It is not possible to select a non-stable or disabled oscillator as the clock source, or to disable the oscillator currently used as the system clock source. Each oscillator option has a status flag that can be read from software to check that the oscillator is ready. The system clock is fed into a prescaler block that can divide the clock signal by a factor from 1 to 2048 before it is routed to the CPU and peripherals. The prescaler settings can be changed from software during normal operation. The first stage, prescaler A, can divide by a factor of from 1 to 512. Then, prescalers B and C can be individually configured to either pass the clock through or combine divide it by a factor from 1 to 4. The prescaler guarantees that derived clocks are always in phase, and that no glitches or intermediate frequencies occur when changing the prescaler setting. The prescaler settings are updated in accordance with the rising edge of the slowest clock. Figure 7-5. System clock selection and prescalers. Prescaler A divides the system clock, and the resulting clock is clkPER4. Prescalers B and C can be enabled to divide the clock speed further to enable peripheral modules to run at twice or four times the CPU clock frequency. If Prescalers B and C are not used, all the clocks will run at the same frequency as the output from Prescaler A. The system clock selection and prescaler registers are protected by the configuration change protection mechanism, employing a timed write procedure for changing the system clock and prescaler settings. For details, refer to “Configuration Change Protection” on page 13. C1 C2 TOSC2 TOSC1 GND Prescaler A 1, 2, 4, ... , 512 Prescaler B 1, 2, 4 Prescaler C 1, 2 Internal 2MHz Osc.

XMEGA B [MANUAL] 80 8291C–AVR–09/2014 7.6 PLL with 1x-31x Multiplication Factor The built-in phase locked loop (PLL) can be used to generate a high-frequency system clock. The PLL has a userselectable multiplication factor of from 1 to 31. The output frequency, fOUT, is given by the input frequency, fIN, multiplied by the multiplication factor, PLL_FAC. Four different clock sources can be chosen as input to the PLL: z 2MHz internal oscillator z 32MHz internal oscillator divided by 4 z 0.4MHz - 16MHz crystal oscillator z External clock To enable the PLL, the following procedure must be followed: 1. Enable reference clock source. 2. Set the multiplication factor and select the clock reference for the PLL. 3. Wait until the clock reference source is stable. 4. Enable the PLL. Hardware ensures that the PLL configuration cannot be changed when the PLL is in use. The PLL must be disabled before a new configuration can be written. It is not possible to use the PLL before the selected clock source is stable and the PLL has locked. The reference clock source cannot be disabled while the PLL is running. 7.7 DFLL 2MHz and DFLL 32MHz Two built-in digital frequency locked loops (DFLLs) can be used to improve the accuracy of the 2MHz and 32MHz internal oscillators. The DFLL compares the oscillator frequency with a more accurate reference clock to do automatic run-time calibration of the oscillator and compensate for temperature and voltage drift. The choices for the reference clock sources are: z 32.768kHz calibrated internal oscillator z 32.768kHz crystal oscillator connected to the TOSC pins z External clock z USB start of frame The DFLLs divide the oscillator reference clock by 32 to use a 1.024kHz reference. The reference clock is individually selected for each DFLL, as shown on Figure 7-6 on page 81. f OUT f IN = ⋅ PLL_FAC XMEGA B [MANUAL] 81 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 7-6. DFLL reference clock selection. The ideal counter value representing the frequency ratio between the internal oscillator and a 1.024kHz reference clock is loaded into the DFLL oscillator compare register (COMP) during reset. For the 32MHz oscillator, this register can be written from software to make the oscillator run at a different frequency or when the ratio between the reference clock and the oscillator is different (for example when the USB start of frame is used). The 48MHz calibration values must be read from the production signature row and written to the 32MHz CAL register before the DFLL is enabled with USB SOF as reference source. The value that should be written to the COMP register is given by the following formula: When the DFLL is enabled, it controls the ratio between the reference clock frequency and the oscillator frequency. If the internal oscillator runs too fast or too slow, the DFLL will decrement or increment its calibration register value by one to adjust the oscillator frequency. The oscillator is considered running too fast or too slow when the error is more than a half calibration step size. 32.768 kHz Crystal Osc External Clock 32.768 kHz Int. Osc DFLL32M 32 MHz Int.

The DFLL will stop when entering a sleep mode where the oscillators are stopped. After wake up, the DFLL will continue with the calibration value found before entering sleep. The reset value of the DFLL calibration register can be read from the production signature row. When the DFLL is disabled, the DFLL calibration register can be written from software for manual run-time calibration of the oscillator. 7.8 PLL and External Clock Source Failure Monitor A built-in failure monitor is available for the PLL and external clock source. If the failure monitor is enabled for the PLL and/or the external clock source, and this clock source fails (the PLL looses lock or the external clock source stops) while being used as the system clock, the device will: z Switch to run the system clock from the 2MHz internal oscillator z Reset the oscillator control register and system clock selection register to their default values z Set the failure detection interrupt flag for the failing clock source (PLL or external clock) z Issue a non-maskable interrupt (NMI) If the PLL or external clock source fails when not being used for the system clock, it is automatically disabled, and the system clock will continue to operate normally. No NMI is issued. The failure monitor is meant for external clock sources above 32kHz. It cannot be used for slower external clocks. When the failure monitor is enabled, it will not be disabled until the next reset. The failure monitor is stopped in all sleep modes where the PLL or external clock source are stopped. During wake up from sleep, it is automatically restarted. The PLL and external clock source failure monitor settings are protected by the configuration change protection mechanism, employing a timed write procedure for changing the settings.

Power Management and Sleep Modes 8.1 Features z Power management for adjusting power consumption and functions z Five sleep modes z Idle z Power down z Power save z Standby z Extended standby z Power reduction register to disable clock and turn off unused peripherals in active and idle modes 8.2 Overview Various sleep modes and clock gating are provided in order to tailor power consumption to application requirements. This enables the XMEGA microcontroller to stop unused modules to save power. All sleep modes are available and can be entered from active mode. In active mode, the CPU is executing application code. When the device enters sleep mode, program execution is stopped and interrupts or a reset is used to wake the device again. The application code decides which sleep mode to enter and when. Interrupts from enabled peripherals and all enabled reset sources can restore the microcontroller from sleep to active mode. In addition, power reduction registers provide a method to stop the clock to individual peripherals from software. When this is done, the current state of the peripheral is frozen, and there is no power consumption from that peripheral. This reduces the power consumption in active mode and idle sleep modes and enables much more fine-tuned power management than sleep modes alone. 8.3 Sleep Modes Sleep modes are used to shut down modules and clock domains in the microcontroller in order to save power. XMEGA microcontrollers have five different sleep modes tuned to match the typical functional stages during application execution. A dedicated sleep instruction (SLEEP) is available to enter sleep mode. Interrupts are used to wake the device from sleep, and the available interrupt wake-up sources are dependent on the configured sleep mode. When an enabled interrupt occurs, the device will wake up and execute the interrupt service routine before continuing normal program execution from the first instruction after the SLEEP instruction. If other, higher priority interrupts are pending when the wake-up occurs, their interrupt service routines will be executed according to their priority before the interrupt service routine for the wake-up interrupt is executed. After wake-up, the CPU is halted for four cycles before execution starts. Table 8-1 on page 96 shows the different sleep modes and the active clock domains, oscillators, and wake-up sources. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 96 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Table 8-1. Active clock domains and wake-up sources in the different sleep modes. The wake-up time for the device is dependent on the sleep mode and the main clock source. The startup time for the system clock source must be added to the wake-up time for sleep modes where the system clock source is not kept running. For details on the startup time for the different oscillator options, refer to “System Clock and Clock Options” on page 77. The content of the register file, SRAM and registers are kept during sleep. If a reset occurs during sleep, the device will reset, start up, and execute from the reset vector. 8.3.1 Idle Mode In idle mode the CPU and nonvolatile memory are stopped (note that any ongoing programming will be completed), but all peripherals, including the interrupt controller, event system and DMA controller are kept running. Any enabled interrupt will wake the device. 8.3.2 Power-down Mode In power-down mode, all clocks, including the real-time counter clock source, are stopped. This allows operation only of asynchronous modules that do not require a running clock. The only interrupts that can wake up the MCU are the twowire interface address match interrupt, asynchronous port interrupts, and the USB resume interrupt. 8.3.3 Power-save Mode Power-save mode is identical to power down, with two exceptions: 1. If the real-time counter (RTC) is enabled, it will keep running during sleep, and the device can also wake up from either an RTC overflow or compare match interrupt. 2. If the LCD is enabled, it will keep running during sleep, and the device can wake up from LCD frame completed interrupt. 8.3.4 Standby Mode Standby mode is identical to power down, with the exception that the enabled system clock sources are kept running while the CPU, peripheral, and RTC/LCD clocks are stopped. This reduces the wake-up time. Active Clock Domain Oscillators Wake-up Sources Sleep Modes CPU Clock Peripheral and USB Clock RTC and LCD Clock System Clock Source RTC Clock Source USB Resume Asynchronous Port Interrupts TWI Address Match Interrupts RTC and LCD Clock Interrupts All Interrupts Idle X X X X X X X X X Power down X X X Power save X X X X X X Standby X X X X Extended standby X X X X X X X XMEGA B [MANUAL] 97 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 8.3.5 Extended Standby Mode Extended standby mode is identical to power-save mode, with the exception that the enabled system clock sources are kept running while the CPU and peripheral clocks are stopped. This reduces the wake-up time. 8.4 Power Reduction Registers The power reduction (PR) registers provide a method to stop the clock to individual peripherals. When this is done, the current state of the peripheral is frozen and the associated I/O registers cannot be read or written. Resources used by the peripheral will remain occupied; hence, the peripheral should be disabled before stopping the clock. Enabling the clock to a peripheral again puts the peripheral in the same state as before it was stopped. This can be used in idle mode and active modes to reduce the overall power consumption. In all other sleep modes, the peripheral clock is already stopped. Not all devices have all the peripherals associated with a bit in the power reduction registers. Setting a power reduction bit for a peripheral that is not available will have no effect. 8.5 Minimizing Power Consumption There are several possibilities to consider when trying to minimize the power consumption in an AVR MCU controlled system. In general, correct sleep modes should be selected and used to ensure that only the modules required for the application are operating. All unneeded functions should be disabled. In particular, the following modules may need special consideration when trying to achieve the lowest possible power consumption. 8.5.1 Analog-to-Digital Converter - ADC When entering idle mode, the ADC should be disabled if not used. In other sleep modes, the ADC is automatically disabled. When the ADC is turned off and on again, the next conversion will be an extended conversion. Refer to “ADC – Analog-to-Digital Converter” on page 326 for details on ADC operation. 8.5.2 Analog Comparator - AC When entering idle mode, the analog comparator should be disabled if not used. In other sleep modes, the analog comparator is automatically disabled. However, if the analog comparator is set up to use the internal voltage reference as input, the analog comparator should be disabled in all sleep modes. Otherwise, the internal voltage reference will be enabled, irrespective of sleep mode. Refer to “AC – Analog Comparator” on page 352 for details on how to configure the analog comparator. 8.5.3 Brownout Detector If the brownout detector is not needed by the application, this module should be turned off. If the brownout detector is enabled by the BODLEVEL fuses, it will be enabled in all sleep modes, and always consume power. In the deeper sleep modes, it can be turned off and set in sampled mode to reduce current consumption. Refer to “Brownout Detection” on page 109 for details on how to configure the brownout detector. 8.5.4 Watchdog Timer If the watchdog timer is not needed in the application, the module should be turned off. If the watchdog timer is enabled, it will be enabled in all sleep modes and, hence, always consume power. Refer to “WDT – Watchdog Timer” on page 115 for details on how to configure the watchdog timer. 8.5.5 Port Pins When entering a sleep mode, all port pins should be configured to use minimum power. Most important is to ensure that no pins drive resistive loads. In sleep modes where the Peripheral Clock (ClkPER) is stopped, the input buffers of the device will be disabled. This ensures that no power is consumed by the input logic when not needed. 8.5.6 On-chip Debug Systems If the On-chip debug system is enabled and the chip enters sleep mode, the main clock source is enabled and hence always consumes power. In the deeper sleep modes, this will contribute significantly to the total current consumption.

Reset System 9.1 Features z Reset the microcontroller and set it to initial state when a reset source goes active z Multiple reset sources that cover different situations z Power-on reset z External reset z Watchdog reset z Brownout reset z PDI reset z Software reset z Asynchronous operation z No running system clock in the device is required for reset z Reset status register for reading the reset source from the application code 9.2 Overview The reset system issues a microcontroller reset and sets the device to its initial state. This is for situations where operation should not start or continue, such as when the microcontroller operates below its power supply rating. If a reset source goes active, the device enters and is kept in reset until all reset sources have released their reset. The I/O pins are immediately tri-stated. The program counter is set to the reset vector location, and all I/O registers are set to their initial values. The SRAM content is kept. However, if the device accesses the SRAM when a reset occurs, the content of the accessed location can not be guaranteed. After reset is released from all reset sources, the default oscillator is started and calibrated before the device starts running from the reset vector address. By default, this is the lowest program memory address, 0, but it is possible to move the reset vector to the lowest address in the boot section. The reset functionality is asynchronous, and so no running system clock is required to reset the device. The software reset feature makes it possible to issue a controlled system reset from the user software. The reset status register has individual status flags for each reset source. It is cleared at power-on reset, and shows which sources have issued a reset since the last power-on. An overview of the reset system is shown in Figure 9-1 on page 103. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 103 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 9-1. Reset system overview. 9.3 Reset Sequence A reset request from any reset source will immediately reset the device and keep it in reset as long as the request is active. When all reset requests are released, the device will go through three stages before the device starts running again: z Reset counter delay z Oscillator startup z Oscillator calibration If another reset requests occurs during this process, the reset sequence will start over again. 9.3.1 Reset Counter The reset counter can delay reset release with a programmable period from when all reset requests are released. The reset delay is timed from the 1kHz output of the ultra low power (ULP) internal oscillator, and in addition 24 System clock (clkSYS) cycles are counted before reset is released. The reset delay is set by the STARTUPTIME fuse bits. The selectable delays are shown in Table 9-1. Table 9-1.

The POR is activated when the VCC rises and reaches the POR threshold voltage (VPOT), and this will start the reset sequence. The POR is also activated to power down the device properly when the VCC falls and drops below the VPOT level. The VPOT level is higher for falling VCCthan for rising VCC. Consult the datasheet for POR characteristics data. Figure 9-2. MCU startup, RESET tied to VCC. Figure 9-3. MCU startup, RESET extended externally, 9.4.2 Brownout Detection The on-chip brownout detection (BOD) circuit monitors the VCC level during operation by comparing it to a fixed, programmable level that is selected by the BODLEVEL fuses. If disabled, BOD is forced on at the lowest level during chip erase and when the PDI is enabled. When the BOD is enabled and VCC decreases to a value below the trigger level (VBOT- in Figure 9-4), the brownout reset is immediately activated. V RESET TIME-OUT INTERNAL RESET t TOUT VPOT VRST CC RESET TIME-OUT INTERNAL RESET t TOUT VPOT VRST VCC XMEGA B [MANUAL] 105 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 When VCC increases above the trigger level (VBOT+ in Figure 9-4), the reset counter starts the MCU after the timeout period, tTOUT, has expired. The trigger level has a hysteresis to ensure spike free brownout detection. The hysteresis on the detection level should be interpreted as VBOT+= VBOT + VHYST/2 and VBOT- = VBOT - VHYST/2. The BOD circuit will detect a drop in VCC only if the voltage stays below the trigger level for longer than tBOD. Figure 9-4. Brownout detection reset. For BOD characterization data consult the device datasheet. The programmable BODLEVEL setting is shown in Table 9- 2. Table 9-2. Programmable BODLEVEL setting. Notes: 1. The values are nominal values only. For accurate, actual numbers, consult the device datasheet. 2. Changing these fuse bits will have no effect until leaving programming mode. The BOD circuit has three modes of operation: z Disabled: In this mode, there is no monitoring of the VCC level. z Enabled: In this mode, the VCC level is continuously monitored, and a drop in VCC below VBOT for a period of tBOD will give a brownout reset z Sampled: In this mode, the BOD circuit will sample the VCC level with a period identical to that of the 1kHz output from the ultra low power (ULP) internal oscillator. Between each sample, the BOD is turned off. This mode will BOD level Fuse BODLEVEL[2:0](2) VBOT(1) Unit BOD level 0 111 1.6 V BOD level 1 110 1.8 BOD level 2 101 2.0 BOD level 3 100 2.2 BOD level 4 011 2.4 BOD level 5 010 2.6 BOD level 6 001 2.8 BOD level 7 000 3.0 VCC TIME-OUT INTERNAL RESET VBOTVBOT+ t TOUT t BOD XMEGA B [MANUAL] 106 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 reduce the power consumption compared to the enabled mode, but a fall in the VCC level between two positive edges of the 1kHz ULP oscillator output will not be detected. If a brownout is detected in this mode, the BOD circuit is set in enabled mode to ensure that the device is kept in reset until VCC is above VBOT again The BODACT fuse determines the BOD setting for active mode and idle mode, while the BODPD fuse determines the brownout detection setting for all sleep modes, except idle mode. Table 9-3. BOD setting fuse decoding. 9.4.3 External Reset The external reset circuit is connected to the external RESET pin. The external reset will trigger when the RESET pin is driven below the RESET pin threshold voltage, VRST, for longer than the minimum pulse period, tEXT. The reset will be held as long as the pin is kept low. The RESET pin includes an internal pull-up resistor. Figure 9-5. External reset characteristics. For external reset characterization data consult the device datasheet. 9.4.4 Watchdog Reset The watchdog timer (WDT) is a system function for monitoring correct program operation. If the WDT is not reset from the software within a programmable timout period, a watchdog reset will be given. The watchdog reset is active for one to two clock cycles of the 2MHz internal oscillator.

It is not possible to execute any instruction from when a software reset is requested until it is issued. Figure 9-7.

WDT – Watchdog Timer 10.1 Features z Issues a device reset if the timer is not reset before its timeout period z Asynchronous operation from dedicated oscillator z 1kHz output of the 32kHz ultra low power oscillator z 11 selectable timeout periods, from 8ms to 8s. z Two operation modes: z Normal mode z Window mode z Configuration lock to prevent unwanted changes 10.2 Overview The watchdog timer (WDT) is a system function for monitoring correct program operation. It makes it possible to recover from error situations such as runaway or deadlocked code. The WDT is a timer, configured to a predefined timeout period, and is constantly running when enabled. If the WDT is not reset within the timeout period, it will issue a microcontroller reset. The WDT is reset by executing the WDR (watchdog timer reset) instruction from the application code. The window mode makes it possible to define a time slot or window inside the total timeout period during which WDT must be reset. If the WDT is reset outside this window, either too early or too late, a system reset will be issued. Compared to the normal mode, this can also catch situations where a code error causes constant WDR execution. The WDT will run in active mode and all sleep modes, if enabled. It is asynchronous, runs from a CPU-independent clock source, and will continue to operate to issue a system reset even if the main clocks fail. The configuration change protection mechanism ensures that the WDT settings cannot be changed by accident. For increased safety, a fuse for locking the WDT settings is also available. 10.3 Normal Mode Operation In normal mode operation, a single timeout period is set for the WDT. If the WDT is not reset from the application code before the timeout occurs, then the WDT will issue a system reset. There are 11 possible WDT timeout (TOWDT) periods, selectable from 8ms to 8s, and the WDT can be reset at any time during the timeout period. A new WDT timeout period will be started each time the WDT is reset by the WDR instruction. The default timeout period is controlled by fuses. Normal mode operation is illustrated in Figure 10-1 on page 110. Figure 10-1. Normal mode operation. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 111 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 10.4 Window Mode Operation In window mode operation, the WDT uses two different timeout periods, a "closed" window timeout period (TOWDTW) and the normal timeout period (TOWDT). The closed window timeout period defines a duration of from 8ms to 8s where the WDT cannot be reset. If the WDT is reset during this period, the WDT will issue a system reset. The normal WDT timeout period, which is also 8ms to 8s, defines the duration of the "open" period during which the WDT can (and should) be reset. The open period will always follow the closed period, and so the total duration of the timeout period is the sum of the closed window and the open window timeout periods. The default closed window timeout period is controlled by fuses (both open and closed periods are controlled by fuses). The window mode operation is illustrated in Figure 10-2. Figure 10-2. Window mode operation. 10.5 Watchdog Timer Clock The WDT is clocked from the 1kHz output from the 32kHz ultra low power (ULP) internal oscillator. Due to the ultra low power design, the oscillator is not very accurate, and so the exact timeout period may vary from device to device. When designing software which uses the WDT, this device-to-device variation must be kept in mind to ensure that the timeout periods used are valid for all devices. For more information on ULP oscillator accuracy, consult the device datasheet. 10.6 Configuration Protection and Lock The WDT is designed with two security mechanisms to avoid unintentional changes to the WDT settings. The first mechanism is the configuration change protection mechanism, employing a timed write procedure for changing the WDT control registers. In addition, for the new configuration to be written to the control registers, the register’s change enable bit must be written at the same time. The second mechanism locks the configuration by setting the WDT lock fuse. When this fuse is set, the watchdog time control register cannot be changed; hence, the WDT cannot be disabled from software. After system reset, the WDT will resume at the configured operation. When the WDT lock fuse is programmed, the window mode timeout period cannot be changed, but the window mode itself can still be enabled or disabled.

Interrupts and Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller 11.1 Features z Short and predictable interrupt response time z Separate interrupt configuration and vector address for each interrupt z Programmable multilevel interrupt controller z Interrupt prioritizing according to level and vector address z Three selectable interrupt levels for all interrupts: low, medium and high z Selectable, round-robin priority scheme within low-level interrupts z Non-maskable interrupts for critical functions z Interrupt vectors optionally placed in the application section or the boot loader section 11.2 Overview Interrupts signal a change of state in peripherals, and this can be used to alter program execution. Peripherals can have one or more interrupts, and all are individually enabled and configured. When an interrupt is enabled and configured, it will generate an interrupt request when the interrupt condition is present. The programmable multilevel interrupt controller (PMIC) controls the handling and prioritizing of interrupt requests. When an interrupt request is acknowledged by the PMIC, the program counter is set to point to the interrupt vector, and the interrupt handler can be executed. All peripherals can select between three different priority levels for their interrupts: low, medium, and high. Interrupts are prioritized according to their level and their interrupt vector address. Medium-level interrupts will interrupt low-level interrupt handlers. High-level interrupts will interrupt both medium- and low-level interrupt handlers. Within each level, the interrupt priority is decided from the interrupt vector address, where the lowest interrupt vector address has the highest interrupt priority. Low-level interrupts have an optional round-robin scheduling scheme to ensure that all interrupts are serviced within a certain amount of time. Non-maskable interrupts (NMI) are also supported, and can be used for system critical functions. 11.3 Operation Interrupts must be globally enabled for any interrupts to be generated. This is done by setting the global interrupt enable ( I ) bit in the CPU status register. The I bit will not be cleared when an interrupt is acknowledged. Each interrupt level must also be enabled before interrupts with the corresponding level can be generated. When an interrupt is enabled and the interrupt condition is present, the PMIC will receive the interrupt request. Based on the interrupt level and interrupt priority of any ongoing interrupts, the interrupt is either acknowledged or kept pending until it has priority. When the interrupt request is acknowledged, the program counter is updated to point to the interrupt vector. The interrupt vector is normally a jump to the interrupt handler; the software routine that handles the interrupt. After returning from the interrupt handler, program execution continues from where it was before the interrupt occurred. One instruction is always executed before any pending interrupt is served. The PMIC status register contains state information that ensures that the PMIC returns to the correct interrupt level when the RETI (interrupt return) instruction is executed at the end of an interrupt handler. Returning from an interrupt will return the PMIC to the state it had before entering the interrupt. The status register (SREG) is not saved automatically upon an interrupt request. The RET (subroutine return) instruction cannot be used when returning from the interrupt handler routine, as this will not return the PMIC to its correct state.

Interrupt controller overview. 11.4 Interrupts All interrupts and the reset vector each have a separate program vector address in the program memory space. The lowest address in the program memory space is the reset vector. All interrupts are assigned individual control bits for enabling and setting the interrupt level, and this is set in the control registers for each peripheral that can generate interrupts. Details on each interrupt are described in the peripheral where the interrupt is available. All interrupts have an interrupt flag associated with it. When the interrupt condition is present, the interrupt flag will be set, even if the corresponding interrupt is not enabled. For most interrupts, the interrupt flag is automatically cleared when executing the interrupt vector. Writing a logical one to the interrupt flag will also clear the flag. Some interrupt flags are not cleared when executing the interrupt vector, and some are cleared automatically when an associated register is accessed (read or written). This is described for each individual interrupt flag. If an interrupt condition occurs while another, higher priority interrupt is executing or pending, the interrupt flag will be set and remembered until the interrupt has priority. If an interrupt condition occurs while the corresponding interrupt is not enabled, the interrupt flag will be set and remembered until the interrupt is enabled or the flag is cleared by software. Similarly, if one or more interrupt conditions occur while global interrupts are disabled, the corresponding interrupt flag will be set and remembered until global interrupts are enabled. All pending interrupts are then executed according to their order of priority. Interrupts can be blocked when executing code from a locked section; e.g., when the boot lock bits are programmed. This feature improves software security. Refer to “Memory Programming” on page 375 for details on lock bit settings. Interrupts are automatically disabled for up to four CPU clock cycles when the configuration change protection register is written with the correct signature. Refer to “Configuration Change Protection” on page 13 for more details. 11.4.1 NMI – Non-Maskable Interrupts Which interrupts represent NMI and which represent regular interrupts cannot be selected. Non-maskable interrupts must be enabled before they can be used. Refer to the device datasheet for NMI present on each device. An NMI will be executed regardless of the setting of the I bit, and it will never change the I bit. No other interrupts can interrupt a NMI handler. If more than one NMI is requested at the same time, priority is static according to the interrupt vector address, where the lowest address has highest priority. 11.4.2 Interrupt Response Time The interrupt response time for all the enabled interrupts is three CPU clock cycles, minimum; one cycle to finish the ongoing instruction and two cycles to store the program counter to the stack. After the program counter is pushed on the stack, the program vector for the interrupt is executed. The jump to the interrupt handler takes three clock cycles.

See Figure 11-2 on page 117 for more details. Figure 11-2. Interrupt execution of a multicycle instruction. If an interrupt occurs when the device is in sleep mode, the interrupt execution response time is increased by five clock cycles. In addition, the response time is increased by the start-up time from the selected sleep mode. A return from an interrupt handling routine takes four to five clock cycles, depending on the size of the program counter. During these clock cycles, the program counter is popped from the stack and the stack pointer is incremented. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 118 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 11.5 Interrupt level The interrupt level is independently selected for each interrupt source. For any interrupt request, the PMIC also receives the interrupt level for the interrupt. The interrupt levels and their corresponding bit values for the interrupt level configuration of all interrupts is shown in Table 11-1. Table 11-1. Interrupt levels The interrupt level of an interrupt request is compared against the current level and status of the interrupt controller. An interrupt request of a higher level will interrupt any ongoing interrupt handler from a lower level interrupt. When returning from the higher level interrupt handler, the execution of the lower level interrupt handler will continue. 11.6 Interrupt priority Within each interrupt level, all interrupts have a priority. When several interrupt requests are pending, the order in which interrupts are acknowledged is decided both by the level and the priority of the interrupt request. Interrupts can be organized in a static or dynamic (round-robin) priority scheme. High- and medium-level interrupts and the NMI will always have static priority. For low-level interrupts, static or dynamic priority scheduling can be selected. 11.6.1 Static priority Interrupt vectors (IVEC) are located at fixed addresses. For static priority, the interrupt vector address decides the priority within one interrupt level, where the lowest interrupt vector address has the highest priority. Refer to the device datasheet for the interrupt vector table with the base address for all modules and peripherals with interrupt capability. Refer to the interrupt vector summary of each module and peripheral in this manual for a list of interrupts and their corresponding offset address within the different modules and peripherals.

Static priority. 11.6.2 Round-robin Scheduling To avoid the possible starvation problem for low-level interrupts with static priority, where some interrupts might never be served, the PMIC offers round-robin scheduling for low-level interrupts. When round-robin scheduling is enabled, the interrupt vector address for the last acknowledged low-level interrupt will have the lowest priority the next time one or more interrupts from the low level is requested. Figure 11-4. Round-robin scheduling. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 120 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 11.7 Interrupt vector locations Table 11-2 shows reset and Interrupt vectors placement for the various combinations of BOOTRST and IVSEL settings. If the program never enables an interrupt source, the Interrupt Vectors are not used, and regular program code can be placed at these locations. This is also the case if the Reset Vector is in the Application section while the Interrupt Vectors are in the Boot section or vice versa. Table 11-2.

The stored interrupt vector will have the lowest priority the next time one or more low-level interrupts are pending. The register is accessible from software to change the priority queue. This register is not reinitialized to its initial value if round-robing scheduling is disabled, and so if default static priority is needed, the register must be written to zero.

One port consists of up to eight port pins: pin 0 to 7. Each port pin can be configured as input or output with configurable driver and pull settings. They also implement synchronous and asynchronous input sensing with interrupts and events for selectable pin change conditions. Asynchronous pin-change sensing means that a pin change can wake the device from all sleep modes, included the modes where no clocks are running. All functions are individual and configurable per pin, but several pins can be configured in a single operation. The pins have hardware read-modify-write (RMW) functionality for safe and correct change of drive value and/or pull resistor configuration. The direction of one port pin can be changed without unintentionally changing the direction of any other pin. The port pin configuration also controls input and output selection of other device functions. It is possible to have both the peripheral clock and the real-time clock output to a port pin, and available for external use. The same applies to events from the event system that can be used to synchronize and control external functions. Other digital peripherals, such as USART, SPI, and timer/counters, can be remapped to selectable pin locations in order to optimize pin-out versus application needs. Figure 12-1 on page 124 shows the I/O pin functionality and the registers that are available for controlling a pin. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 124 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 12-1. General I/O pin functionality. 12.3 I/O Pin Use and Configuration Each port has one data direction (DIR) register and one data output value (OUT) register that are used for port pin control. The data input value (IN) register is used for reading the port pins. In addition, each pin has a pin configuration (PINnCTRL) register for additional pin configuration. Direction of the pin is decided by the DIRn bit in the DIR register. If DIRn is written to one, pin n is configured as an output pin. If DIRn is written to zero, pin n is configured as an input pin. When direction is set as output, the OUTn bit in OUT is used to set the value of the pin. If OUTn is written to one, pin n is driven high. If OUTn is written to zero, pin n is driven low. The IN register is used for reading pin values. A pin value can always be read regardless of whether the pin is configured as input or output, except if digital input is disabled. The I/O pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if no clocks are running. The pin n configuration (PINnCTRL) register is used for additional I/O pin configuration. A pin can be set in a totem-pole, wired-AND, or wired-OR configuration. It is also possible to enable inverted input and output for a pin. A totem-pole output has four possible pull configurations: totem-pole (push-pull), pull-down, pull-up, and bus-keeper. The bus-keeper is active in both directions. This is to avoid oscillation when disabling the output. The totem-pole Q D R Q D R Synchronizer D Q R D Q R DIRn OUTn PINnCTRL INn Pxn D Q R C o n t r o l L o g i c Input Disable Wired AND/OR Digital Input Pin Analog Input/Output Inverted I/O Pull Enable Pull Keep Pull Direction XMEGA B [MANUAL] 125 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 configurations with pull-up and pull-down have active resistors only when the pin is set as input. This feature eliminates unnecessary power consumption. For wired-AND and wired-OR configuration, the optional pull-up and pull-down resistors are active in both input and output directions. Since pull configuration is configured through the pin configuration register, all intermediate port states during switching of the pin direction and pin values are avoided. The I/O pin configurations are summarized with simplified schematics in Figure 12-2 on page 125 to Figure 12-7 on page 127. 12.3.1 Totem-pole In the totem-pole (push-pull) configuration, the pin is driven low or high according to the corresponding bit setting in the OUT register. In this configuration, there is no current limitation for sink or source other than what the pin is capable of. If the pin is configured for input, the pin will float if no external pull resistor is connected. Figure 12-2. I/O pin configuration - Totem-pole (push-pull). 12.3.1.1 Totem-pole with Pull-down In this mode, the configuration is the same as for totem-pole mode, expect the pin is configured with an internal pull-down resistor when set as input. Figure 12-3. I/O pin configuration - Totem-pole with pull-down (on input). XMEGA B [MANUAL] 126 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 12.3.1.2 Totem-pole with Pull-up In this mode, the configuration is as for totem-pole, expect the pin is configured with internal pull-up when set as input. Figure 12-4. I/O pin configuration - Totem-pole with pull-up (on input). 12.3.2 Bus-keeper In the bus-keeper configuration, it provides a weak bus-keeper that will keep the pin at its logic level when the pin is no longer driven to high or low. If the last level on the pin/bus was 1, the bus-keeper configuration will use the internal pull resistor to keep the bus high. If the last logic level on the pin/bus was 0, the bus-keeper will use the internal pull resistor to keep the bus low. Figure 12-5. I/O pin configuration - Totem-pole with bus-keeper. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 127 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 12.3.3 Wired-OR In the wired-OR configuration, the pin will be driven high when the corresponding bits in the OUT and DIR registers are written to one. When the OUT register is set to zero, the pin is released, allowing the pin to be pulled low with the internal or an external pull-resistor. If internal pull-down is used, this is also active if the pin is set as input. Figure 12-6. Output configuration - Wired-OR with optional pull-down. 12.3.4 Wired-AND In the wired-AND configuration, the pin will be driven low when the corresponding bits in the OUT and DIR registers are written to zero. When the OUT register is set to one, the pin is released allowing the pin to be pulled high with the internal or an external pull-resistor. If internal pull-up is used, this is also active if the pin is set as input. Figure 12-7. Output configuration - Wired-AND with optional pull-up. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 128 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 12.4 Reading the Pin Value Independent of the pin data direction, the pin value can be read from the IN register, as shown in Figure 12-1 on page 124. If the digital input is disabled, the pin value cannot be read. The IN register bit and the preceding flip-flop constitute a synchronizer. The synchronizer introduces a delay on the internal signal line. Figure 12-8 on page 128 shows a timing diagram of the synchronization when reading an externally applied pin value. The maximum and minimum propagation delays are denoted as tpd,max and tpd,min, respectively. Figure 12-8. Synchronization when reading a pin value. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 129 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 12.5 Input Sense Configuration Input sensing is used to detect an edge or level on the I/O pin input. The different sense configurations that are available for each pin are detection of a rising edge, falling edge, or any edge or detection of a low level. High level can be detected by using the inverted input configuration. Input sensing can be used to trigger interrupt requests (IREQ) or events when there is a change on the pin. The I/O pins support synchronous and asynchronous input sensing. Synchronous sensing requires the presence of the peripheral clock, while asynchronous sensing does not require any clock. Figure 12-9. Input sensing. 12.6 Port Interrupt Each port has two interrupt vectors, and it is configurable which pins on the port will trigger each interrupt. Port interrupts must be enabled before they can be used. Which sense configurations can be used to generate interrupts is dependent on whether synchronous or asynchronous input sensing is available for the selected pin. For synchronous sensing, all sense configurations can be used to generate interrupts. For edge detection, the changed pin value must be sampled once by the peripheral clock for an interrupt request to be generated. For asynchronous sensing, only port pin 2 on each port has full asynchronous sense support. This means that for edge detection, pin 2 will detect and latch any edge and it will always trigger an interrupt request. The other port pins have limited asynchronous sense support. This means that for edge detection, the changed value must be held until the device wakes up and a clock is present. If the pin value returns to its initial value before the end of the device wake-up time, the device will still wake up, but no interrupt request will be generated. A low level can always be detected by all pins, regardless of a peripheral clock being present or not. If a pin is configured for low-level sensing, the interrupt will trigger as long as the pin is held low. In active mode, the low level must be held until the completion of the currently executing instruction for an interrupt to be generated. In all sleep modes, the low level must be kept until the end of the device wake-up time for an interrupt to be generated. If the low level disappears before the end of the wake-up time, the device will still wake up, but no interrupt will be generated. Table 12-1, Table 12-2, and Table 12-3 on page 130 summarize when interrupts can be triggered for the various input sense configurations.

Synchronous sense support. Table 12-2. Full asynchronous sense support. Table 12-3. Limited asynchronous sense support. 12.7 Port Event Port pins can generate an event when there is a change on the pin. The sense configurations decide the conditions for each pin to generate events. Event generation requires the presence of a peripheral clock, and asynchronous event generation is not possible. For edge sensing, the changed pin value must be sampled once by the peripheral clock for an event to be generated. For level sensing, a low-level pin value will not generate events, and a high-level pin value will continuously generate events. For events to be generated on a low level, the pin configuration must be set to inverted I/O. Table 12-4.

When an alternate function is enabled, it might override the normal port pin function or pin value. This happens when other peripherals that require pins are enabled or configured to use pins. If and how a peripheral will override and use pins is described in the section for that peripheral. The port override signals and related logic (grey) are shown in Figure 12-10 on page 131. These signals are not accessible from software, but are internal signals between the overriding peripheral and the port pin. Figure 12-10. Port override signals and related logic.

This can be used to clock, control, and synchronize external functions and hardware to internal device timing. The output port pin is selectable. If an event occurs, it remains visible on the port pin as long as the event lasts; normally one peripheral clock cycle. 12.10 Multi-pin configuration The multi-pin configuration function is used to configure multiple port pins using a single write operation to only one of the port pin configuration registers. A mask register decides which port pin is configured when one port pin register is written, while avoiding several pins being written the same way during identical write operations. 12.11 Virtual Ports Virtual port registers allow the port registers to be mapped virtually in the bit-accessible I/O memory space. When this is done, writing to the virtual port register will be the same as writing to the real port register. This enables the use of I/O memory-specific instructions, such as bit-manipulation instructions, on a port register that normally resides in the extended I/O memory space. There are four virtual ports, and so four ports can be mapped at the same time.

Their capabilities include accurate program execution timing, frequency and waveform generation, and input capture with time and frequency measurement of digital signals. Two timer/counters can be cascaded to create a 32-bit timer/counter with optional 32-bit capture. A timer/counter consists of a base counter and a set of compare or capture (CC) channels. The base counter can be used to count clock cycles or events. It has direction control and period setting that can be used for timing. The CC channels can be used together with the base counter to do compare match control, frequency generation, and pulse width waveform modulation, as well as various input capture operations. A timer/counter can be configured for either capture or compare functions, but cannot perform both at the same time. A timer/counter can be clocked and timed from the peripheral clock with optional prescaling or from the event system. The event system can also be used for direction control and capture trigger or to synchronize operations. There are two differences between timer/counter type 0 and type 1. Timer/counter 0 has four CC channels, and timer/counter 1 has two CC channels. All information related to CC channels 3 and 4 is valid only for timer/counter 0. Only Timer/Counter 0 has the split mode feature that split it into two 8-bit Timer/Counters with four compare channels each. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 149 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Some timer/counters have extensions to enable more specialized waveform and frequency generation. The advanced waveform extension (AWeX) is intended for motor control and other power control applications. It enables low- and highside output with dead-time insertion, as well as fault protection for disabling and shutting down external drivers. It can also generate a synchronized bit pattern across the port pins. The high-resolution (hi-res) extension can be used to increase the waveform output resolution by four or eight times by using an internal clock source running up to four times faster than the peripheral clock. A block diagram of the 16-bit timer/counter with extensions and closely related peripheral modules (in grey) is shown in Figure 13-1 on page 149. Figure 13-1. 16-bit timer/counter and closely related peripherals. 13.2.1 Definitions The following definitions are used throughout the documentation: Table 13-1. Timer/counter definitions In general, the term “timer” is used when the timer/counter clock control is handled by an internal source, and the term “counter” is used when the clock control is handled externally (e.g. counting external events). When used for compare operations, the CC channels are referred to as “compare channels.” When used for capture operations, the CC channels are referred to as “capture channels.” Name Description BOTTOM The counter reaches BOTTOM when it becomes zero. MAX The counter reaches MAXimum when it becomes all ones. TOP The counter reaches TOP when it becomes equal to the highest value in the count sequence. The TOP value can be equal to the period (PER) or the compare channel A (CCA) register setting. This is selected by the waveform generator mode. UPDATE The timer/counter signals an update when it reaches BOTTOM or TOP, depending on the waveform generator mode. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 150 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 13.3 Block Diagram Figure 13-2 on page 150 shows a detailed block diagram of the timer/counter without the extensions. Figure 13-2. Timer/counter block diagram. The counter register (CNT), period registers with buffer (PER and PERBUF), and compare and capture registers with buffers (CCx and CCxBUF) are 16-bit registers. All buffer register have a buffer valid (BV) flag that indicates when the buffer contains a new value. During normal operation, the counter value is continuously compared to zero and the period (PER) value to determine whether the counter has reached TOP or BOTTOM. The counter value is also compared to the CCx registers. These comparisons can be used to generate interrupt requests, request DMA transactions or generate events for the event system. The waveform generator modes use these comparisons to set the waveform period or pulse width. A prescaled peripheral clock and events from the event system can be used to control the counter. The event system is also used as a source to the input capture. Combined with the quadrature decoding functionality in the event system (QDEC), the timer/counter can be used for quadrature decoding.

Figure 13-3. Clock and event selection. The peripheral clock is fed into a common prescaler (common for all timer/counters in a device). Prescaler outputs from 1 to 1/1024 are directly available for selection by the timer/counter. In addition, the whole range of prescaling from 1 to 215 times is available through the event system. Clock selection (CLKSEL) selects one of the prescaler outputs directly or an event channel as the counter (CNT) input. This is referred to as normal operation of the counter. For details, refer to “Normal Operation” on page 152. By using the event system, any event source, such as an external clock signal on any I/O pin, may be used as the clock input. In addition, the timer/counter can be controlled via the event system. The event selection (EVSEL) and event action (EVACT) settings are used to trigger an event action from one or more events. This is referred to as event action controlled operation of the counter. For details, refer to “Event Action Controlled Operation” on page 153. When event action controlled operation is used, the clock selection must be set to use an event channel as the counter input. By default, no clock input is selected and the timer/counter is not running. 13.5 Double Buffering The period register and the CC registers are all double buffered. Each buffer register has a buffer valid (BV) flag, which indicates that the buffer register contains a valid, i.e. new, value that can be copied into the corresponding period or CC register. When the period register and CC channels are used for a compare operation, the buffer valid flag is set when data is written to the buffer register and cleared on an UPDATE condition. This is shown for a compare register in Figure 13-4 on page 152. clkPER / 2{0,...,15} CKSEL CNT EVACT clkPER / {1,2,4,8,64,256,1024} Common Prescaler clkPER event channels (Encoding) Event System EVSEL Control Logic events XMEGA B [MANUAL] 152 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 13-4. Period and compare double buffering. When the CC channels are used for a capture operation, a similar double buffering mechanism is used, but in this case the buffer valid flag is set on the capture event, as shown in Figure 13-5. For capture, the buffer register and the corresponding CCx register act like a FIFO. When the CC register is empty or read, any content in the buffer register is passed to the CC register. The buffer valid flag is passed to set the CCx interrupt flag (IF) and generate the optional interrupt. Figure 13-5. Capture double buffering. Both the CCx and CCxBUF registers are available as an I/O register. This allows initialization and bypassing of the buffer register and the double buffering function. 13.6 Counter Operation Depending on the mode of operation, the counter is cleared, reloaded, incremented, or decremented at each timer/counter clock input. 13.6.1 Normal Operation In normal operation, the counter will count in the direction set by the direction (DIR) bit for each clock until it reaches TOP or BOTTOM. When up-counting and TOP is reached, the counter will be set to zero when the next clock is given. When down-counting, the counter is reloaded with the period register value when BOTTOM is reached. BV UPDATE "write enable" "data write" = CNT "match" CCxBUF EN CCx EN BV "capture" IF CNT CCxBUF EN CCx EN "INT/DMA request" data read XMEGA B [MANUAL] 153 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 13-6. Normal operation. As shown in Figure 13-6, it is possible to change the counter value when the counter is running. The write access has higher priority than count, clear, or reload, and will be immediate. The direction of the counter can also be changed during normal operation. Normal operation must be used when using the counter as timer base for the capture channels. 13.6.2 Event Action Controlled Operation The event selection and event action settings can be used to control the counter from the event system. For the counter, the following event actions can be selected: z Event system controlled up/down counting. z Event n will be used as count enable. z Event n+1 will be used to select between up (1) and down (0). The pin configuration must be set to low level sensing. z Event system controlled quadrature decode counting. 13.6.3 32-bit Operation Two timer/counters can be used together to enable 32-bit counter operation. By using two timer/counters, the overflow event from one timer/counter (least-significant timer) can be routed via the event system and used as the clock input for another timer/counter (most-significant timer). 13.6.4 Changing the Period The counter period is changed by writing a new TOP value to the period register. If double buffering is not used, any period update is immediate, as shown in Figure 13-7 on page 153. Figure 13-7. Changing the period without buffering. CNT BOTTOM MAX "update" TOP CNT written DIR CNT MAX New TOP written to PER that is higher than current CNT Counter Wraparound New TOP written to PER that is lower than current CNT "update" "write" BOTTOM XMEGA B [MANUAL] 154 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 A counter wraparound can occur in any mode of operation when up-counting without buffering, as shown in Figure 13-8. This due to the fact that CNT and PER are continuously compared, and if a new TOP value that is lower than current CNT is written to PER, it will wrap before a compare match happen. Figure 13-8. Unbuffered dual-slope operation. When double buffering is used, the buffer can be written at any time and still maintain correct operation. The period register is always updated on the UPDATE condition, as shown for dual-slope operation in Figure 13-9. This prevents wraparound and the generation of odd waveforms. Figure 13-9. Changing the period using buffering. 13.7 Capture Channel The CC channels can be used as capture channels to capture external events and give them a timestamp. To use capture, the counter must be set for normal operation. Events are used to trigger the capture; i.e., any events from the event system, including pin change from any pin, can trigger a capture operation. The event source select setting selects which event channel will trigger CC channel A. The subsequent event channels then trigger events on subsequent CC channels, if configured. For example, setting the event source select to event channel 2 results in CC channel A being triggered by event channel 2, CC channel B triggered by event channel 3, and so on. CNT MAX New TOP written to PER that is higher than current CNT New TOP written to PER that is lower than current CNT "update" "write" Counter Wraparound BOTTOM CNT MAX New Period written to PERBUF that is higher than current CNT New Period written to PERBUF that is lower than current CNT "update" "write" New PER is updated with PERBUF value. BOTTOM XMEGA B [MANUAL] 155 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 13-10.Event source selection for capture operation. The event action setting in the timer/counter will determine the type of capture that is done. The CC channels must be enabled individually before capture can be done. When the capture condition occur, the timer/counter will time-stamp the event by copying the current CNT value in the count register into the enabled CC channel register. When an I/O pin is used as an event source for the capture, the pin must be configured for edge sensing. For details on sense configuration on I/O pins, refer to “Input Sense Configuration” on page 129. If the period register value is lower than 0x8000, the polarity of the I/O pin edge will be stored in the most-significant bit (msb) of the capture register. If the msb of the capture register is zero, a falling edge generated the capture. If the msb is one, a rising edge generated the capture. 13.7.1 Input Capture Selecting the input capture event action makes the enabled capture channel perform an input capture on an event. The interrupt flags will be set and indicate that there is a valid capture result in the corresponding CC register. At the same time, the buffer valid flags indicate valid data in the buffer registers. The counter will continuously count from BOTTOM to TOP, and then restart at BOTTOM, as shown in Figure 13-11. The figure also shows four capture events for one capture channel. Figure 13-11.Input capture timing. 13.7.2 Frequency Capture Selecting the frequency capture event action makes the enabled capture channel perform an input capture and restart on positive edge events. This enables the timer/counter to measure the period or frequency of a signal directly. The capture result will be the time (T) from the previous timer/counter restart until the event occurred. This can be used to calculate the frequency (f) of the signal: Event System CH0MUX CH1MUX CHnMUX Rotate Event channel n Event Source Selection CCA capture CCB capture CCC capture CCD capture Event channel 0 Event channel 1 events CNT TOP BOTTOM Capture 0 Capture 1 Capture 2 Capture 3 f 1 T = --- XMEGA B [MANUAL] 156 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 13-12 on page 156 shows an example where the period of an external signal is measured twice. Figure 13-12.Frequency capture of an external signal. Since all capture channels use the same counter (CNT), only one capture channel must be enabled at a time. If two capture channels are used with different sources, the counter will be restarted on positive edge events from both input sources, and the result will have no meaning. 13.7.3 Pulse Width Capture Selecting the pulse width measure event action makes the enabled compare channel perform the input capture action on falling edge events and the restart action on rising edge events. The counter will then restart on positive edge events, and the input capture will be performed on the negative edge event. The event source must be an I/O pin, and the sense configuration for the pin must be set to generate an event on both edges. Figure 13-13 on page 156 shows and example where the pulse width is measured twice for an external signal. Figure 13-13.Pulse width capture of an external signal. Period (T) external signal events CNT MAX BOTTOM "capture" Pulsewitdh (tp) external signal events CNT MAX BOTTOM "capture" XMEGA B [MANUAL] 157 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 13.7.4 32-bit Input Capture Two timer/counters can be used together to enable true 32-bit input capture. In a typical 32-bit input capture setup, the overflow event of the least-significant timer is connected via the event system and used as the clock input for the mostsignificant timer. The most-significant timer will be updated one peripheral clock period after an overflow occurs for the least-significant timer. To compensate for this, the capture event for the most-significant timer must be equally delayed by setting the event delay bit for this timer. 13.7.5 Capture Overflow The timer/counter can detect buffer overflow of the input capture channels. When both the buffer valid flag and the capture interrupt flag are set and a new capture event is detected, there is nowhere to store the new timestamp. If a buffer overflow is detected, the new value is rejected, the error interrupt flag is set, and the optional interrupt is generated. 13.8 Compare Channel Each compare channel continuously compares the counter value (CNT) with the CCx register. If CNT equals CCx, the comparator signals a match. The match will set the CC channel's interrupt flag at the next timer clock cycle, and the event and optional interrupt are generated. The compare buffer register provides double buffer capability equivalent to that for the period buffer. The double buffering synchronizes the update of the CCx register with the buffer value to either the TOP or BOTTOM of the counting sequence according to the UPDATE condition. The synchronization prevents the occurrence of odd-length, nonsymmetrical pulses for glitch-free output. 13.8.1 Waveform Generation The compare channels can be used for waveform generation on the corresponding port pins. To make the waveform visible on the connected port pin, the following requirements must be fulfilled: 1. A waveform generation mode must be selected. 2. Event actions must be disabled. 3. The CC channels used must be enabled. This will override the corresponding port pin output register. 4. The direction for the associated port pin must be set to output. Inverted waveform output is achieved by setting the invert output bit for the port pin. 13.8.2 Frequency (FRQ) Waveform Generation For frequency generation the period time (T) is controlled by the CCA register instead of PER. The waveform generation (WG) output is toggled on each compare match between the CNT and CCA registers, as shown in Figure 13-14 on page 158. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 158 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 13-14.Frequency waveform generation. The waveform frequency (fFRQ) is defined by the following equation: where N represents the prescaler divider used. The waveform generated will have a maximum frequency of half of the peripheral clock frequency (fclkPER) when CCA is set to zero (0x0000) and no prescaling is used. This also applies when using the hi-res extension, since this increases the resolution and not the frequency. 13.8.3 Single-slope PWM Generation For single-slope PWM generation, the period (T) is controlled by PER, while CCx registers control the duty cycle of the WG output. Figure 13-15 shows how the counter counts from BOTTOM to TOP and then restarts from BOTTOM. The waveform generator (WG) output is set on the compare match between the CNT and CCx registers and cleared at TOP. Figure 13-15.Single-slope pulse width modulation. The PER register defines the PWM resolution. The minimum resolution is 2 bits (PER=0x0003), and the maximum resolution is 16 bits (PER=MAX). The following equation calculate the exact resolution for single-slope PWM (RPWM_SS): The single-slope PWM frequency (fPWM_SS) depends on the period setting (PER) and the peripheral clock frequency (fclkPER), and can be calculated by the following equation: CNT MAX "update" TOP Period (T) Direction Change CNT written BOTTOM WG Output f FRQ fclkPER 2N CCA ( ) + 1 = ---------------------------------- CNT MAX TOP Period (T) "match" BOTTOM WG Output CCx=BOTTOM CCx CCx=TOP "update" RPWM_SS log( ) PER 1 + log( ) 2 = --------------------------------- XMEGA B [MANUAL] 159 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 where N represents the prescaler divider used. The waveform generated will have a maximum frequency of half of the peripheral clock frequency (fclkPER) when CCA is set to zero (0x0000) and no prescaling is used. This also applies when using the hi-res extension, since this increases the resolution and not the frequency. 13.8.4 Dual-slope PWM For dual-slope PWM generation, the period (T) is controlled by PER, while CCx registers control the duty cycle of the WG output. Figure 13-16 shows how for dual-slope PWM the counter counts repeatedly from BOTTOM to TOP and then from TOP to BOTTOM. The waveform generator output is set on BOTTOM, cleared on compare match when up-counting, and set on compare match when down-counting. Figure 13-16.Dual-slope pulse width modulation. Using dual-slope PWM results in a lower maximum operation frequency compared to the single-slope PWM operation. The period register (PER) defines the PWM resolution. The minimum resolution is 2 bits (PER=0x0003), and the maximum resolution is 16 bits (PER=MAX). The following equation calculate the exact resolution for dual-slope PWM (RPWM_DS): The PWM frequency depends on the period setting (PER) and the peripheral clock frequency (fclkPER), and can be calculated by the following equation: N represents the prescaler divider used. The waveform generated will have a maximum frequency of half of the peripheral clock frequency (fclkPER) when CCA is set to zero (0x0000) and no prescaling is used. This also applies when using the hi-res extension, since this increases the resolution and not the frequency. 13.8.5 Port Override for Waveform Generation To make the waveform generation available on the port pins, the corresponding port pin direction must be set as output. The timer/counter will override the port pin values when the CC channel is enabled (CCENx) and a waveform generation mode is selected. f PWM_SS fclkPER N( ) PER 1 + = ----------------------------- CNT MAX TOP Period (T) BOTTOM WG Output CCx=BOTTOM CCx CCx=TOP "match" "update" RPWM_DS log( ) PER 1 + log( ) 2 = --------------------------------- f PWM_DS fclkPER 2NPER = -------------------- XMEGA B [MANUAL] 160 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 13-17 on page 160 shows the port override for a timer/counter. The timer/counter CC channel will override the port pin output value (OUT) on the corresponding port pin. Enabling inverted I/O on the port pin (INVEN) inverts the corresponding WG output. Figure 13-17.Port override for timer/counter 0 and 1. 13.9 Interrupts and events The timer/counter can generate both interrupts and events. The counter can generate an interrupt on overflow/underflow, and each CC channel has a separate interrupt that is used for compare or capture. In addition, an error interrupt can be generated if any of the CC channels is used for capture and a buffer overflow condition occurs on a capture channel. Events will be generated for all conditions that can generate interrupts. For details on event generation and available events, refer to “Event System” on page 63. 13.10 DMA Support The interrupt flags can be used to trigger DMA transactions. Table 13-2 lists the transfer triggers available from the timer/counter and the DMA action that will clear the transfer trigger. For more details on using DMA, refer to “DMAC - Direct Memory Access Controller” on page 47. Table 13-2. DMA request sources 13.11 Timer/Counter Commands A set of commands can be given to the timer/counter by software to immediately change the state of the module. These commands give direct control of the UPDATE, RESTART, and RESET signals. An update command has the same effect as when an update condition occurs. The update command is ignored if the lock update bit is set. The software can force a restart of the current waveform period by issuing a restart command. In this case the counter, direction, and all compare outputs are set to zero. A reset command will set all timer/counter registers to their initial values. A reset can be given only when the timer/counter is not running (OFF).

No waveform generation is performed in the normal mode of operation. For all other modes, the result from the waveform generator will only be directed to the port pins if the corresponding CCxEN bit has been set to enable this. The port pin direction must be set as output. Table 13-4. Timer waveform generation mode. 13.12.3 CTRLC – Control register C z Bit 7:4 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use.

The EVSEL setting will decide which event source or sources have control in this case. Table 13-5. Timer event action selection. Selecting any of the capture event actions changes the behavior of the CCx registers and related status and control bits to be used for capture. The error status flag (ERRIF) will indicate a buffer overflow in this configuration. See “Event Action Controlled Operation” on page 153 for further details. z Bit 4 – EVDLY: Timer Delay Event When this bit is set, the selected event source is delayed by one peripheral clock cycle. This is intended for 32-bit input capture operation. Adding the event delay is necessary to compensate for the carry propagation delay when cascading two counters via the event system. z Bit 3:0 – EVSEL[3:0]:Timer Event Source Select These bits select the event channel source for the timer/counter. For the selected event channel to have any effect, the event action bits (EVACT) must be set according to Table 13-6. When the event action is set to a capture operation, the selected event channel n will be the event channel source for CC channel A, and event channel (n+1)%8, (n+2)%8, and (n+3)%8 will be the event channel source for CC channel B, C, and D.

Both memory locations will give the same result when read. The individual status bit can be set by writing a one to its bit location in CTRLxSET, and cleared by writing a one to its bit location in CTRLxCLR. This allows each bit to be set or cleared without use of a read-modify-write operation on a single register. 13.12.8.1 CTRLFCLR 13.12.8.2 CTRLFSET z Bit 7:4 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use.

For all modes of operation except for capture, the CCxIF will be set when a compare match occurs between the count register (CNT) and the corresponding compare register (CCx). The CCxIF is automatically cleared when the corresponding interrupt vector is executed. For input capture operation, the CCxIF will be set if the corresponding compare buffer contains valid data (i.e., when CCxBV is set). The flag will be cleared when the CCx register is read. Executing the interrupt vector in this mode of operation will not clear the flag. The flag can also be cleared by writing a one to its bit location. The CCxIF can be used for requesting a DMA transfer. A DMA read or write access of the corresponding CCx or CCxBUF will then clear the CCxIF and release the request. z Bit 3:2 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 1 – ERRIF: Error Interrupt Flag This flag is set on multiple occasions, depending on the mode of operation. In the FRQ or PWM waveform generation mode of operation, ERRIF is set on a fault detect condition from the fault protection feature in the AWeX extention. For timer/counters which do not have the AWeX extention available, this flag is never set in FRQ or PWM waveform generation mode. For capture operation, ERRIF is set if a buffer overflow occurs on any of the CC channels. For event controlled QDEC operation, ERRIF is set when an incorrect index signal is given. This flag is automatically cleared when the corresponding interrupt vector is executed. The flag can also be cleared by writing a one to this location. z Bit 0 – OVFIF: Overflow/Underflow Interrupt Flag This flag is set either on a TOP (overflow) or BOTTOM (underflow) condition, depending on the WGMODE setting.

It is a system of two eight-bit timer/counters, each with four compare channels. This results in eight configurable pulse width modulation (PWM) channels with individually controlled duty cycles, and is intended for applications that require a high number of PWM channels. The two eight-bit timer/counters in this system are referred to as the low-byte timer/counter and high-byte timer/counter, respectively. The difference between them is that only the low-byte timer/counter can be used to generate compare match interrupts, events and DMA triggers. The two eight-bit timer/counters have a shared clock source and separate period and compare settings. They can be clocked and timed from the peripheral clock, with optional prescaling, or from the event system. The counters are always counting down. The timer/counter 2 is set back to timer/counter 0 by setting it in normal mode; hence, one timer/counter can exist only as either type 0 or type 2. A detailed block diagram of the timer/counter 2 showing the low-byte (L) and high-byte (H) timer/counter register split and compare modules is shown in Figure 14-1 on page 174. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 174 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 14.3 Block Diagram Figure 14-1. Block diagram of the 16-bit timer/counter 0 with split mode. 14.4 Clock Sources The timer/counter can be clocked from the peripheral clock (clkPER) and from the event system. Figure 14-2 shows the clock and event selection. Figure 14-2. Clock selection. Base Counter Compare (Unit x = {A,B,C,D}) Counter HPER = 0 Control Logic CTRLA HUNF (INT/DMA Req.)

A selection of prescaler outputs from 1 to 1/1024 is directly available. In addition, the whole range of time prescalings from 1 to 215 is available through the event system. The clock selection (CLKSEL) selects one of the clock prescaler outputs or an event channel for the high-byte counter (HCNT) and low-byte counter (LCNT). By using the event system, any event source, such as an external clock signal, on any I/O pin can be used as the clock input. By default, no clock input is selected, and the counters are not running. 14.5 Counter Operation The counters will always count in single-slope mode. Each counter counts down for each clock cycle until it reaches BOTTOM, and then reloads the counter with the period register value at the following clock cycle. Figure 14-3. Counter operation. As shown in Figure 14-3, the counter can change the counter value while running. The write access has higher priority than the count clear, and reloads and will be immediate. 14.5.1 Changing the Period The counter period is changed by writing a new TOP value to the period register. Since the counter is counting down, the period register can be written at any time without affecting the current period, as shown in Figure 14-4 on page 175. This prevents wraparound and generation of odd waveforms. Figure 14-4. Changing the period. 14.6 Compare Channel Each compare channel continuously compares the counter value with the CMPx register. If CNT equals CMPx, the comparator signals a match. For the low-byte timer/counter, the match will set the compare channel's interrupt flag at the next timer clock cycle, and the event and optional interrupt is generated. The high-byte timer/counter does not have compare interrupt/event. CNT BOTTOM MAX "reload" TOP CNT written CNT MAX New TOP written to PER that is higher than current CNT New TOP written to PER that is lower than current CNT "reload" "write" BOTTOM XMEGA B [MANUAL] 176 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 14.6.1 Waveform Generation The compare channels can be used for waveform generation on the corresponding port pins. To make the waveform visible on the connected port pin, the following requirements must be fulfilled: 1. The compare channels to be used must be enabled. This will override the corresponding port pin output register. 2. The direction for the associated port pin must be set to output. Inverted waveform output can be achieved by setting invert I/O on the port pin. Refer to “I/O Ports” on page 123 for more details. 14.6.2 Single-slope PWM Generation For PWM generation, the period (T) is controlled by the PER register, while the CMPx registers control the duty cycle of the waveform generator (WG) output. Figure 14-5 on page 176 shows how the counter counts from TOP to BOTTOM, and then restarts from TOP. The WG output is set on the compare match between the CNT and CMPx registers, and cleared at BOTTOM. Figure 14-5. Single-slope pulse width modulation. The PER register defines the PWM resolution. The minimum resolution is two bits (PER=0x0003), and the maximum resolution is eight bits (PER=MAX). The following equation is used to calculate the exact resolution for a single-slope PWM (RPWM_SS) waveform: The single, slow PWM frequency (fPWM_SS) depends on the period setting (PER) and the peripheral clock frequency (fPER), and it is calculated by using the following equation: where N represents the prescaler divider used (1, 2, 4, 8, 64, 256, 1024, or event channel n). 14.6.3 Port Override for Waveform Generation To make the waveform generation available on the port pins, the corresponding port pin direction must be set as output. The timer/counter will override the port pin values when the CMP channel is enabled (LCMPENx/HCMPENx). Figure 14-6 on page 177 shows the port override for the low- and high-byte timer/counters. For the low-byte timer/counter, CMP channels A to D will override the output value (OUTxn) of port pins 0 to 3 on the corresponding port pins (Pxn). For the high-byte timer/counter, CMP channels E to H will override port pins 4 to 7. Enabling inverted I/O on the port pin (INVENxn) inverts the corresponding WG output. CNT MAX TOP Period (T) "match" BOTTOM WG Output CMPx=BOT CMPx CMPx=TOP RPWM_SS log( ) PER 1 + log( ) 2 = --------------------------------- f PWM_SS f PER N( ) PER 1 + = ----------------------------- XMEGA B [MANUAL] 177 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 14-6. Port override for low- and high-byte timer/counters. 14.7 Interrupts and Events The timer/counters can generate interrupts and events. The counter can generate an interrupt on underflow, and each CMP channel for the low-byte counter has a separate compare interrupt. Events will be generated for all conditions that can generate interrupts. For details on event generation and available events, refer to “Event System” on page 63. 14.8 DMA Support Timer/counter underflow and compare interrupt flags can trigger a DMA transaction. The acknowledge condition that clears the flag/request is listed in Table 14-1. Table 14-1. DMA request sources. 14.9 Timer/Counter Commands A set of commands can be given to the timer/counter by software to immediately change the state of the module. These commands give direct control of the update, restart, and reset signals. The software can force a restart of the current waveform period by issuing a restart command. In this case the counter, direction, and all compare outputs are set to zero. A reset command will set all timer/counter registers to their initial values. A reset can only be given when the timer/counter is not running (OFF).

AWeX – Advanced Waveform Extension 15.1 Features z Waveform output with complementary output from each compare channel z Four dead-time insertion (DTI) units z 8-bit resolution z Separate high and low side dead-time setting z Double buffered dead time z Optionally halts timer during dead-time insertion z Pattern generation unit creating synchronised bit pattern across the port pins z Double buffered pattern generation z Optional distribution of one compare channel output across the port pins z Event controlled fault protection for instant and predictable fault triggering 15.2 Overview The advanced waveform extension (AWeX) provides extra functions to the timer/counter in waveform generation (WG) modes. It is primarily intended for use with different types of motor control and other power control applications. It enables low- and high side output with dead-time insertion and fault protection for disabling and shutting down external drivers. It can also generate a synchronized bit pattern across the port pins. Figure 15-1. Advanced waveform extention and closely related peripherals (grey). As shown in Figure 15-1 on page 185, each of the waveform generator outputs from timer/counter 0 are split into a complimentary pair of outputs when any AWeX features are enabled. These output pairs go through a dead-time insertion (DTI) unit that generates the non-inverted low side (LS) and inverted high side (HS) of the WG output with deadtime insertion between LS and HS switching. The DTI output will override the normal port value according to the port Timer/Counter 0 AWeX WG Channel A DTI Channel A WG Channel B DTI Channel B WG Channel C DTI Channel C WG Channel D DTI Channel D Port Override Pattern Generation Px0 Px1 Px2 Px3 Px4 Px5 Px6 Px7 Event System Fault Protection XMEGA B [MANUAL] 186 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 override setting. Refer to “I/O Ports” on page 123 for more details. The pattern generation unit can be used to generate a synchronized bit pattern on the port it is connected to. In addition, the WG output from compare channel A can be distributed to and override all the port pins. When the pattern generator unit is enabled, the DTI unit is bypassed. The fault protection unit is connected to the event system, enabling any event to trigger a fault condition that will disable the AWeX output. The event system ensures predictable and instant fault reaction, and gives flexibility in the selection of fault triggers. 15.3 Port Override The port override logic is common for all the timer/counter extensions. Figure 15-2 on page 187 shows a schematic diagram of the port override logic. When the dead-time enable (DTIENx) bit is set, the timer/counter extension takes control over the pin pair for the corresponding channel. Given this condition, the output override enable (OOE) bits take control over the CCxEN bits. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 187 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 15-2. Timer/counter extensions and port override logic. 15.4 Dead-time Insertion The dead-time insertion (DTI) unit generates OFF time where the non-inverted low side (LS) and inverted high side (HS) of the WG output are both low. This OFF time is called dead time, and dead-time insertion ensures that the LS and HS never switch simultaneously. The DTI unit consists of four equal dead-time generators, one for each compare channel in timer/counter 0. Figure 15-3 on page 188 shows the block diagram of one DTI generator. The four channels have a common register that controls the OUT0 OUTOVEN0 CCAEN DTICCAEN INVEN0 OUT1 OUTOVEN1 CCBEN INVEN1 Px0 Px1 Channel A DTI LS HS OC0A OC0B OCALS OCAHS WG 0A WG 0B WG 0A CWCM OUT2 OUTOVEN2 CCCEN DTICCBEN INVEN2 OUT3 OUTOVEN3 CCDEN INVEN3 Px2 Px3 Channel B DTI LS HS OC0C OC0D OCBLS OCBHS WG 0C WG 0D OUT4 OUTOVEN4 CCAEN DTICCCEN INVEN4 OUT5 OUTOVEN5 CCBEN INVEN5 Px4 Px5 Channel C DTI LS HS OC1A OC1B OCCLS OCCHS WG 1A WG 1B OUT6 OUTOVEN6 DTICCDEN INVEN6 OUT7 OUTOVEN7 INVEN7 Px6 Px7 Channel D DTI LS HS OCDLS OCDHS WG 0B WG 0D WG 0C "0" "0" XMEGA B [MANUAL] 188 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 dead time. The high side and low side have independent dead-time setting, and the dead-time registers are double buffered. Figure 15-3. Dead-time generator block diagram. As shown in Figure 15-4 on page 188, the 8-bit dead-time counter is decremented by one for each peripheral clock cycle, until it reaches zero. A nonzero counter value will force both the low side and high side outputs into their OFF state. When a change is detected on the WG output, the dead-time counter is reloaded according to the edge of the input. A positive edge initiates a counter reload of the DTLS register, and a negative edge a reload of DTHS register. Figure 15-4. Dead-time generator timing diagram. 15.5 Pattern Generation The pattern generator unit reuses the DTI registers to produce a synchronized bit pattern across the port it is connected to. In addition, the waveform generator output from compare channel A (CCA) can be distributed to and override all the port pins. These features are primarily intended for handling the commutation sequence in brushless DC motor (BLDC) and stepper motor applications. A block diagram of the pattern generator is shown in “Pattern generator block diagram.” on page 189. For each port pin where the corresponding OOE bit is set, the multiplexer will output the waveform from CCA.

Pattern generator block diagram. As with the other timer/counter double buffered registers, the register update is synchronized to the UPDATE condition set by the waveform generation mode. If the synchronization provided is not required by the application, the application code can simply access the DTIOE and PORTx registers directly. The pin directions must be set for any output from the pattern generator to be visible on the port. 15.6 Fault Protection The fault protection feature enables fast and deterministic action when a fault is detected. The fault protection is event controlled. Thus, any event from the event system can be used to trigger a fault action, such as over-current indication from analog comparator or ADC measurements. When fault protection is enabled, an incoming event from any of the selected event channels can trigger the event action. Each event channel can be separately enabled as a fault protection input, and the specified event channels will be ORed together, allowing multiple event sources to be used for fault protection at the same time. 15.6.1 Fault Actions When a fault is detected, the direction clear action will clear the direction (DIR) register in the associated port, setting all port pins as tri-stated inputs. The fault detection flag is set, the timer/counter’s error interrupt flag is set, and the optional interrupt is generated. There is maximum of two peripheral clock cycles from when an event occurs in a peripheral until the fault protection triggers the event action. Fault protection is fully independent of the CPU and DMA, but requires the peripheral clock to run. 15.6.2 Fault Restore Modes How the AWeX and timer/counter return from the fault state to normal operation after a fault, when the fault condition is no longer active, can be selected from one of two different modes: z In latched mode, the waveform output will remain in the fault state until the fault condition is no longer active and the fault detect flag has been cleared by software. When both of these conditions are met, the waveform output will return to normal operation at the next UPDATE condition. z In cycle-by-cycle mode the waveform output will remain in the fault state until the fault condition is no longer active. When this condition is met, the waveform output will return to normal operation at the next UPDATE condition. Timer/Counter 0 (TCx0) BV DTLSBUF BV OUTOVEN DTHSBUF OUTx UPDATE CCA WG output EN EN 1 to 8 Expand Px[7:0] XMEGA B [MANUAL] 190 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 When returning from a fault state the DIR[7:0] bits corresponding to the enabled DTI channels are restored. OUTOVEN is unaffected by the fault except that writing to the register from software is blocked. The UPDATE condition used to restore normal operation is the same as the one in the timer/counter. 15.6.3 Change Protection To avoid unintentional changes in the fault protection setup, all the control registers in the AWeX extension can be protected by writing the corresponding lock bit in the advanced waveform extension lock register. For more details, refer to “I/O Memory Protection” on page 25 and “AWEXLOCK – Advanced Waveform Extension Lock register” on page 44. When the lock bit is set, control register A, the output override enable register, and the fault detection event mask register cannot be changed. To avoid unintentional changes in the fault event setup, it is possible to lock the event system channel configuration by writing the corresponding event system lock register. For more details, refer to “I/O Memory Protection” on page 25 and “EVSYSLOCK – Event System Lock register” on page 43. 15.6.4 On-Chip Debug When fault detection is enabled, an on-chip debug (OCD) system receives a break request from the debugger, which will by default function as a fault source. When an OCD break request is received, the AWeX and corresponding timer/counter will enter a fault state, and the specified fault action will be performed. After the OCD exits from the break condition, normal operation will be started again. In cycle-by-cycle mode, the waveform output will start on the first UPDATE condition after exit from break, while in latched mode, the fault condition flag must be cleared in software before the output will be restored. This feature guarantees that the output waveform enters a safe state during a break. It is possible to disable this feature.

Hi-Res – High-Resolution Extension 16.1 Features z Increases waveform generator resolution up to 8x (3 bits) z Supports frequency, single-slope PWM, and dual-slope PWM generation z Supports the AWeX when this is used for the same timer/counter 16.2 Overview The high-resolution (hi-res) extension can be used to increase the resolution of the waveform generation output from a timer/counter by four or eight. It can be used for a timer/counter doing frequency, single-slope PWM, or dual-slope PWM generation. It can also be used with the AWeX if this is used for the same timer/counter. The hi-res extension uses the peripheral 4x clock (ClkPER4). The system clock prescalers must be configured so the peripheral 4x clock frequency is four times higher than the peripheral and CPU clock frequency when the hi-res extension is enabled. Refer to “System Clock Selection and Prescalers” on page 79 for more details. Figure 16-1. Timer/counter operation with hi-res extension enabled. When the hi-res extension is enabled, the timer/counter must run from a non-prescaled peripheral clock. The timer/counter will ignore its two least-significant bits (lsb) in the counter, and counts by four for each peripheral clock cycle. Overflow/underflow and compare match of the 14 most-significant bits (msb) is done in the timer/counter. Count and compare of the two lsb is handled and compared in the hi-res extension running from the peripheral 4x clock. The two lsb of the timer/counter period register must be set to zero to ensure correct operation. If the count register is read from the application code, the two lsb will always be read as zero, since the timer/counter run from the peripheral clock. The two lsb are also ignored when generating events. When the hi-res plus feature is enabled, the function is the same as with the hi-res extension, but the resolution will increase by eight instead of four. This also means that the 3 lsb are handled by the hi-res extension instead of 2 lsb, as when only hi-res is enabled. The extra resolution is achieved by counting on both edges of the peripheral 4x clock. The hi-res extension will not output any pulse shorter than one peripheral clock cycle; i.e., a compare value lower than four will have no visible output.

Setting one or both HREN bits will enable high-resolution waveform generation output for the entire general purpose I/O port.

It can wake up the device from sleep modes and/or interrupt the device at regular intervals. The reference clock is typically the 1.024kHz output from a high-accuracy crystal of 32.768kHz, and this is the configuration most optimized for low power consumption. The faster 32.768kHz output can be selected if the RTC needs a resolution higher than 1ms. The RTC can also be clocked from an external clock signal, the 32.768kHz internal oscillator or the 32kHz internal ULP oscillator. The RTC includes a 10-bit programmable prescaler that can scale down the reference clock before it reaches the counter. A wide range of resolutions and time-out periods can be configured. With a 32.768kHz clock source, the maximum resolution is 30.5μs, and time-out periods can range up to 2000 seconds. With a resolution of 1s, the maximum timeout period is more than18 hours (65536 seconds). The RTC can give a compare interrupt and/or event when the counter equals the compare register value, and an overflow interrupt and/or event when it equals the period register value. Figure 17-1.

For control and count register updates, it will take a number of RTC clock and/or peripheral clock cycles before an updated register value is available in a register or until a configuration change has effect on the RTC. This synchronization time is described for each register. Refer to “RTCCTRL – RTC Control register” on page 85 for selecting the asynchronous clock source for the RTC. 17.2.2 Interrupts and Events The RTC can generate both interrupts and events. The RTC will give a compare interrupt and/or event at the first count after the counter value equals the Compare register value. The RTC will give an overflow interrupt request and/or event at the first count after the counter value equals the Period register value. The overflow will also reset the counter value to zero. Due to the asynchronous clock domain, events will be generated only for every third overflow or compare match if the period register is zero. If the period register is one, events will be generated only for every second overflow or compare match. When the period register is equal to or above two, events will trigger at every overflow or compare match, just as the interrupt request.

CNT counts positive clock edges on the prescaled RTC clock. Reading and writing 16-bit values requires special attention. Refer to “Accessing 16-bit Registers” on page 13 for details. Due to synchronization between the RTC clock and system clock domains, there is a latency of two RTC clock cycles from updating the register until this has an effect.

PER is constantly compared with the counter value (CNT). A match will set OVFIF in the INTFLAGS register and clear CNT. Reading and writing 16-bit values requires special attention. Refer to “Accessing 16-bit Registers” on page 13 for details. Due to synchronization between the RTC clock and system clock domains, there is a latency of two RTC clock cycles from updating the register until this has an effect. Application software needs to check that the SYNCBUSY flag in the “STATUS – Status register” on page 200 is cleared before writing to this register. z Bit 7:0 – PER[7:0]: Period low byte These bits hold the LSB of the 16-bit RTC TOP value. 17.3.9 PERH – Period register High z Bits 7:0 – PER[15:8]: Period high byte These bits hold the MSB of the 16-bit RTC TOP value. 17.3.10 COMPL – Compare register Low The COMPH and COMPL register pair represent the 16-bit value, COMP. COMP is constantly compared with the counter value (CNT). A compare match will set COMPIF in the INTFLAGS register. Reading and writing 16-bit values requires special attention. Refer “Accessing 16-bit Registers” on page 13 for details.

The USB supports 16 endpoint addresses. All endpoint addresses have one input and one output endpoint, for a total of 31 configurable endpoints and one control endpoint. Each endpoint address is fully configurable and can be configured for any of the four transfer types: control, interrupt, bulk, or isochronous. The data payload size is also selectable, and it supports data payloads up to 1023 bytes. No dedicated memory is allocated for or included in the USB module. Internal SRAM is used to keep the configuration for each endpoint address and the data buffer for each endpoint. The memory locations used for endpoint configurations and data buffers are fully configurable. The amount of memory allocated is fully dynamic, according to the number of endpoints in use and the configuration of these. The USB module has built-in direct memory access (DMA), and will read/write data from/to the SRAM when a USB transaction takes place. To maximize throughput, an endpoint address can be configured for ping-pong operation. When done, the input and output endpoints are both used in the same direction. The CPU or DMA controller can then read/write one data buffer while the USB module writes/reads the others, and vice versa. This gives double buffered communication. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 207 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Multipacket transfer enables a data payload exceeding the maximum packet size of an endpoint to be transferred as multiple packets without software intervention. This reduces the CPU intervention and the interrupts needed for USB transfers. For low-power operation, the USB module can put the microcontroller into any sleep mode when the USB bus is idle and a suspend condition is given. Upon bus resumes, the USB module can wake up the microcontroller from any sleep mode. Figure 18-1. USB OUT transfer: data packet from host to USB device. Figure 18-2. USB IN transfer: data packet from USB device to host after request from host. 18.3 Operation This section gives an overview of the USB module operation during normal transactions.

If there was a CRC or bit-stuff error, the frame error (FRAMEERR) flag in FRAMENUM is set. 18.3.2 SETUP When a SETUP token is detected, the USB module fetches the endpoint control register (CTRL) from the addressed output endpoint in the endpoint configuration table. If the endpoint type is not set to control, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. Figure 18-3. SETUP transaction. The USB module then fetches the endpoint data pointer register (DATAPTR) and waits for a DATA0 packet. If a PID error or any other PID than DATA0 is detected, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. The incoming data are written to the data buffer pointed to by DATAPTR. If a bit-stuff error is detected in the incoming data, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. If the number of received data bytes exceeds the endpoint's maximum data payload size, as specified by the data size (SIZE) in the endpoint CTRL register, the remaining received data bytes are discarded. The packet will still be checked for bit-stuff and CRC errors. Software must never report a maximum data payload size to the host that is greater than specified in SIZE. If there was a bit-stuff or CRC error in the packet, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. If data was successfully received, an ACK handshake is returned to the host, and the number of received data bytes, excluding the CRC, is written to the endpoint byte counter (CNT). If the number of received data bytes is the maximum data payload specified by SIZE, no CRC data are written in the data buffer. If the number of received data bytes is the maximum data payload specified by SIZE minus one, only the first CRC data byte is written in the data buffer. If the number of received data bytes is equal or less than the data byte payload specified by SIZE minus two, the two CRC data bytes are written in the data buffer. Finally, the setup transaction complete flag (SETUP), data buffer 0 not acknowledge flag (NACK0), and data toggle flag (TOGGLE) are set, while the remaining flags in the endpoint status register (STATUS) are cleared for the addressed input and output endpoints. The setup transaction complete interrupt flag (SETUPIF) in INTFLAGSBCLR/SET is set. The STALL flag in the endpoint CTRL register is cleared for the addressed input and output endpoints. When a SETUP token is detected and the device address of the token packet does not match that of the endpoint, the packet is discarded, and the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. 18.3.3 OUT When an OUT token is detected, the USB module fetches the endpoint CTRL and STATUS register data from the addressed output endpoint in its endpoint configuration table. If the endpoint is disabled, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. SETUP TOKEN ADDRESS ADDRESS MATCH? ENDPOINT LEGAL ENDPOINT? EP TYPE CTRL SET? PID PID OK?

OUT transaction. The USB module then fetches the endpoint DATAPTR register and waits for a DATA0 or DATA1 packet. If a PID error or any other PID than DATA0 or DATA1 is detected, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. If the STALL flag in the endpoint CTRL register is set, the incoming data are discarded. If the endpoint is not isochronous, and the bit stuffing and CRC of the received data are OK, a STALL handshake is returned to the host, and the STALL interrupt flag is set. For isochronous endpoints, data from both a DATA0 and DATA1 packet will be accepted. For other endpoint types, the PID is checked against TOGGLE. If they don't match, the incoming data are discarded and a NAK handshake is returned to the host. If BUSNACK0 is set, the incoming data are discarded. The overflow flag (OVF) in the endpoint STATUS register and the overflow interrupt flag (OVFIF) in the INTFLAGSASET/CLR register are set. If the endpoint is not isochronous, a NAK handshake is returned to the host. The incoming data are written to the data buffer pointed to by DATAPTR. If a bit-stuff error is detected in the incoming data, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. If the number of received data bytes exceeds the maximum data payload specified by SIZE, the remaining received data bytes are discarded. The packet will still be checked for bit-stuff and CRC errors. If there was a bit-stuff or CRC error in the packet, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. If the endpoint is isochronous and there was a bit-stuff or CRC error in the incoming data, the number of received data bytes, excluding CRC, is written to the endpoint CNT register. Finally, CRC and BUSNACK0 in the endpoint and STATUS and CRCIF in INTFLAGSASET/CLR are set. If data was successfully received, an ACK handshake is returned to the host if the endpoint is not isochronous, and the number of received data bytes, excluding CRC, is written to CNT. If the number of received data bytes is the maximum data payload specified by SIZE no CRC data are written in the data buffer. If the number of received data bytes is the maximum data payload specified by SIZE minus one, only the first CRC data byte is written in the data buffer If the number of received data bytes is equal or less than the data payload specified by SIZE minus two, the two CRC data bytes are written in the data buffer. Finally, the transaction complete flag (TRNCOMPL0) and BUSNACK0 are set and TOGGLE is toggled if the endpoint is not isochronous. The transaction complete interrupt flag (TRNIF) in INTFLAGSBCLR/SET is set. The endpoint's configuration table address is written to the FIFO if the transaction complete FIFO mode is enabled.

If the endpoint is disabled, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. If the STALL flag in endpoint CTRL register is set, and the endpoint is not isochronous, a STALL handshake is returned to the host, the STALL flag in the endpoint STATUS register and the STALL interrupt flag (STALLIF) in INTFLAGSACLR/SET are set. If BUSNACK0 is set, OVF in the endpoint STATUS register and OVFIF in the INTFLAGSACLR/SET register are set. If the endpoint is not isochronous, a NAK handshake is returned to the host. The data in the data buffer pointed to by the endpoint DATAPTR register are sent to the host in a DATA0 packet if the endpoint is isochronous; otherwise, a DATA0 or DATA1 packet according to TOGGLE is sent. When the number of data bytes specified in endpoint CNT is sent, the CRC is appended and sent to the host. If not, a ZLP handshake is returned to the host. For isochronous endpoints, BUSNACK0 and TRNCOMPL0 in the endpoint STATUS register are set. TRNIF is set, and the endpoint's configuration table address is written to the FIFO if the transaction complete FIFO mode is enabled. For all non-isochronous endpoints, the USB module waits for an ACK handshake from the host. If an ACK handshake is not received within 16 USB clock cycles, the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet. If an ACK handshake was successfully received, BUSNACK0 and TRNCOMPL0 are set and TOGGLE is toggled. TRNIF is set and the endpoint's configuration table address is written to the FIFO if the transaction complete FIFO mode is enabled. When an IN token is detected and the device address of the token packet does not match that of the endpoint, the packet is discarded and the USB module returns to idle and waits for the next token packet.

The USB frame number (FRAMENUM) and transaction complete FIFO (FIFO) locations are derived from this. The locations of these areas are selectable inside the internal SRAM. Figure on page 211 gives the relative memory location of each area. Figure 18-6. SRAM memory mapping. 18.5 Clock Generation The USB module requires a minimum 6MHz clock for USB low speed operation, and a minimum 48MHz clock for USB full speed operation. It can be clocked from internal or external clock sources by using the internal PLL, or directly from the 32MHz internal oscillator when it is tuned and calibrated to 48MHz. The CPU and peripherals clocks must run at a minimum of 1.5MHz for low speed operation, and a minimum of 12MHz for full speed operation. The USB module clock selection is independent of and separate from the main system clock selection. Selection and setup are done using the main clock control settings. For details, refer to “System Clock and Clock Options” on page 75. The Figure 18-7 on page 212 shows an overview of the USB module clock selection.

Clock generation configuration. 18.6 Ping-pong Operation When an endpoint is configured for ping-pong operation, it uses the input and output data buffers to create a single, double-buffered endpoint that can be set to input or output direction. This provides double-buffered communication, as the CPU or DMA controller can access one of the buffers, while the other buffer is processing an ongoing transfer. Pingpong operation is identical to the IN and OUT transactions described above, unless otherwise noted in this section. Pingpong operation is not possible for control endpoints. When ping-pong operation is enabled for an endpoint, the endpoint in the opposite direction must be disabled. The data buffer, data pointer, byte counter, and auxiliary data from the enabled endpoint are used as bank 0, and, correspondingly, bank 1 for the opposite endpoint direction. The bank select (BANK) flag in the endpoint STATUS register indicates which data bank will be used in the next transaction. It is updated after each transaction. The TRNCOMPL0/TRNCOMPL1, underflow/overflow (UDF/OVF), and CRC flags in the STATUS register are set for either the enabled or the opposite endpoint direction according to the BANK flag. The data toggle (TOGGLE), data buffer 0/1 not acknowledge (BUSNACK0 and BUSNACK1), and BANK flags are updated for the enabled endpoint direction only. Figure 18-8. Ping-pong operation overview.

This reduces interrupts and software intervention to the higher level USB transfer, and frees up significant CPU time. Multipacket transfer is identical to the IN and OUT transactions described above, unless otherwise noted in this section. The application software provides the size and address of the SRAM buffer to be processed by the USB module for a specific endpoint, and the USB module will then split the buffer in the required USB data transfer. Figure 18-9. Multipacket overview. 18.7.1 For Input Endpoints The total number of data bytes to be sent is written to CNT, as for normal operation. The auxiliary data register (AUXDATA) is used to store the number of bytes that will be sent, and must be written to zero for a new transfer. When an IN token is received, the endpoint’s CNT and AUXDATA are fetched. If CNT minus AUXDATA is less than the endpoint SIZE, endpoint CNT minus endpoint AUXDATA number bytes are transmitted; otherwise, SIZE number of bytes are transmitted. If endpoint CNT is a multiple of SIZE and auto zero length packet (AZLP) is enabled, the last packet sent will be zero length. If a maximum payload size packet was sent (i.e., not the last transaction), AUXDATA is incremented by SIZE. TOGGLE will be toggled after the transaction has completed if the endpoint is not isochronous. If a short packet was sent (i.e., the last transaction), AUXDATA is incremented by the data payload. TOGGLE will be toggled if the endpoint is not isochronous, and BUSNACK, TRNIF, and TRNCOMPL0 will be set. 18.7.2 For Output Endpoints The number of data bytes received is stored in the endpoint’s CNT register, as for normal operation. Since the endpoint’s CNT is updated after each transaction, it must be set to zero when setting up a new transfer. The total number of bytes to be received must be written to AUXDATA. This value must be a multiple of SIZE, except for ISO 1023 bytes endpoints; otherwise, excess data may be written to SRAM locations used by other parts of the application. TOGGLE management is as for non-isochronous packets, and BUSNACK0/BUSNACK1 management is as for normal operation. If a maximum payload size packet is received, CNT is incremented by SIZE after the transaction has completed, and TOGGLE toggles if the endpoint is not isochronous. If the updated endpoint CNT is equal to AUXDATA, then BUSNACK0/BUSNACK1, TRNIF, and TRNCOMPL0/TRNCOMPL1 will be set. If a short or oversized packet is received, the endpoint’s CNT register will be incremented by the data payload after the transaction has completed. TOGGLE will be toggled if the endpoint is not isochronous, and BUSNACK0/BUSNACK1, TRNIF, and TRNCOMPL0/TRNCOMPL1 will be set. Transfer Complete Interrupt and data processing Without multipacket With multipacket XMEGA B [MANUAL] 214 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 18.8 Auto Zero Length Packet Some IN transfer requires a zero length packet to be generated in order to signal end of transfer to the host. The auto zero length packet (AZLP) function can be enabled to perform this generation automatically, thus removing the need for application software or CPU intervention to perform this task. 18.9 Transaction Complete FIFO The transaction complete FIFO provides a convenient way to keep track of the endpoints that have completed IN or OUT transactions and need firmware intervention. It creates a first-come, first-served work queue for the application software. The FIFO size is (MAXEP[3:0] + 1) × 4 bytes, and grows downward, starting from EPPTR - 1. This SRAM memory is allocated only when the FIFO is enabled. Figure 18-10.Transfer complete FIFO. To manage the FIFO, a five-bit write pointer (FIFOWP) and five-bit read pointer (FIFORP) are used by the USB module and application software, respectively. FIFORP and FIFOWP are one's complemented, and thus hold negative values. The SRAM location of the data is the sum of EPPTR and the read or write pointer. The number of items in the FIFO is the difference between FIFOWP and FIFORP. For the programmer, the FIFORP and FIFOWP values have to be cast to a signed 8-bit integer, and then the offset into the FIFO from this signed integer must be deducted. The transaction complete interrupt flag (TRNIF) in the INFLAGSB[CLR,SET] register is set to indicate a non-empty FIFO when FIFORP != FIFOWP, cleared when they are equal, and also set when the FIFO is full. Each time an endpoint IN or OUT transaction completes successfully, its endpoint configuration table address is stored in the FIFO at the current write pointer position (i.e., EPPTR + 2 × FIFOWP) and FIFOWP is decremented. When the pointer reaches the FIFO size, it wraps to zero. When application software reads FIFORP, this is decremented in the same way. Reading the write pointer has no effect. The endpoint configuration table address can then be read directly from (EPPTR + 2 × FIFORP). Figure 18-11.USB transaction complete FIFO example.

The module has 10 interrupt sources. These are split between two interrupt vectors, the transaction complete (TRNCOMPL) interrupt and the bus event (BUSEVENT) interrupt. An interrupt group is enabled by setting its interrupt level (INTLVL), while different interrupt sources are enabled individually or in groups. Figure 18-12 on page 215 summarizes the interrupts and event sources for the USB module, and shows how they are enabled. Figure 18-12.Interrupts and events scheme summary. 18.10.1 Transaction Complete Interrupt The transaction complete interrupt is generated per endpoint. When an interrupt occurs, the associated endpoint number is registered and optionally added to the FIFO. The following two interrupt sources use the interrupt vector: SUSPENDIF SOFIE RESUMEIF RSTIF CRCIF UNFIF OVFIF STALLIF BSEVIE STALLIE BUSSERRIE SOFIF SETUPIE TRNIF TRNIE SETUPIF Busevent Interrupt request Transaction Complete Interrupt request XMEGA B [MANUAL] 216 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Table 18-1. Transaction complete interrupt sources. 18.10.2 Bus Event Interrupt The bus event (BUSEVENT) interrupt is used for all interrupts that signal various types of USB line events or error conditions. These interrupts are related to the USB lines, and are generated for the USB module and per endpoint. The following eight interrupts use the interrupt vector: Table 18-2. Bus event interrupt source. 18.10.3 Events The USB module can generate several events, and these are available to the event system, allowing latency-free signaling to other peripherals or performance analysis of USB operation. Table 18-3. Event sources. 18.11 VBUS Detection Atmel AVR XMEGA devices can use any general purpose I/O pin to implement a VBUS detection function, and do not use a dedicated VBUS detect pin.

The interrupt is asynchronous and can wake the device from all sleep modes Reset (RSTIF) A reset condition has been detected on the bus Isochronous CRC error (CRCIF) A CRC or bit-stuff error has been detected in an incoming packet to an isochronous endpoint Underflow (UNFIF) An endpoint is unable to return data to the host Overflow (OVFIF) An endpoint is unable to accept data from the host STALL (STALLIF) A STALL handshake has been returned to the host Event source Description SETUP SETUPIF Start of Frame SOFIF CRC error CRCIF Underflow/overflow UNFIF and OVFIF XMEGA B [MANUAL] 217 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 18.12 On-chip Debug When a break point is reached during on-chip debug (OCD) sessions, the CPU clock can be below 12MHz. If this happens, the USB module will behave as follows: USB OCD break mode disabled: The USB module immediately acknowledges any OCD break request. The USB module will not be able to follow up on transactions received from the USB host, and its behaviour from the host point of view is not predictable. USB OCD break mode enabled: The USB module will immediately acknowledge any OCD break request only if there are no ongoing USB transactions. If there is an ongoing USB transaction, the USB module will acknowledge any OCD break request only when the ongoing USB transaction has been completed. The USB module will NACK any further transactions received from the USB host, whether they are SETUP, IN (ISO, BULK), or OUT (ISO, BULK).

Clearing this bit disables the USB interface and immediately aborts any ongoing transactions. z Bit 6 – SPEED: Speed Select This bit selects between low and full speed operation. By default, this bit is zero, and low speed operation is selected. Setting this bit enables full speed operation. z Bit 5 – FIFOEN: USB FIFO Enable Setting this bit enables the USB transaction complete FIFO, and the FIFO stores the endpoint configuration table address of each endpoint that generates a transaction complete interrupt. Clearing this bit disables the FIFO and frees the allocated SRAM memory. z Bit 4 – STFRNUM: Store Frame Number Enable Setting this bit enables storing of the last SOF token frame number in the frame number (FRAMENUM) register. Clearing this bit disables the function. z Bit 3:0 – MAXEP[3:0]: Maximum Endpoint Address These bits select the number of endpoint addresses used by the USB module. Incoming packets with a higher endpoint number than this address will be discarded. Packets with endpoint addresses lower than or equal to this address will cause the USB module to look up the addressed endpoint in the endpoint configuration table. 18.13.2 CTRLB – Control register B z Bit 7:5 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use.

Expect for a SETUP packet, this prevents the USB module from performing any on-chip SRAM access, giving all SRAM bandwidth to the CPU and/or DMA controller. z Bit 0 – ATTACH: Attach Setting this bit enables the internal D+ or D- pull-up (depending on the USB speed selection), and attaches the device to the USB lines. Clearing this bit disconnects the device from the USB lines. 18.13.3 STATUS – Status register z Bit 7:4 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 3 – URESUME: Upstream Resume This flag is set when an upstream resume is sent. z Bit 2 – RESUME: Resume This flag is set when a downstream resume is received. z Bit 1 – SUSPEND: Bus Suspended This flag is set when the USB lines are in the suspended state (the bus has been idle for at least 3ms). z Bit 0 – BUSRST: Bus Reset This flag is set when a reset condition has been detected (the bus has been driven to SE0 for at least 2.5μs). 18.13.4 ADDR – Address register z Bit 7 – Reserved This bit is unused and reserved for future use.

Writing this register will flush the FIFO write and read pointers. 18.13.6 FIFORP – FIFO Read Pointer register z Bit 7:5 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 4:0 – FIFORP[4:0]: FIFO Read Pointer These bits contain the transaction complete FIFO read pointer. This register must only be read by the CPU or DMA controller. Writing this register will flush the FIFO write and read pointer. 18.13.7 EPPTRL – Endpoint Configuration Table Pointer Low The EPPTRL and EPPTRH registers represent the 16-bit value, EPPTR, that contains the address to the endpoint configuration table. The pointer to the endpoint configuration table must be aligned to a 16-bit word; i.e., EPPTR[0] must be zero. Only the number of bits required to address the available internal SRAM memory is implemented for each device. Unused bits will always be read as zero. z Bit 7:0 – EPPTR[7:0]: Endpoint Configuration Table Pointer low byte This register contains the eight lsbs of the endpoint configuration table pointer (EPPTR).

The INTLVL bits must be nonzero for the interrupts to be generated. z Bit 6 – BUSEVIE: Bus Event Interrupt Enable Setting this bit will enable the interrupt for the following three bus events: 1. Suspend: An interrupt will be generated for the conditions that set the suspend interrupt flag (SUSPENDIF) in the INTFLAGSACLR/SET register. 2. Resume: An interrupt will be generated for the conditions that set the resume interrupt flag (RESUMEIF) in the INTFLAGSACLR/SET register. 3. Reset: An interrupt will be generated for the conditions that set the reset interrupt flag (RESETIF) in the INTFLAGSACLR/SET register. The INTLVL bits must be nonzero for the interrupts to be generated. z Bit 5 – BUSERRIE: Bus Error Interrupt Enable Setting this bit will enable the interrupt for the following three bus error events: 1. Isochronous CRC Error: An interrupt will be generated for the conditions that set the CRC interrupt flag (CRCIF) in the INTFLAGSACLR/SET register during isochronous transfers. 2. Underflow: An interrupt will be generated for the conditions that set the underflow interrupt flag (UNFIF) in the INTFLAGSACLR/SET register. 3. Overflow: An interrupt will be generated for the conditions that set the overflow interrupt flag (OVFIF) in the INTFLAGSACLR/SET register. The INTLVL bits must be nonzero for the interrupts to be generated. z Bit 4 – STALLIE: STALL Interrupt Enable Setting this bit enables the STALL interrupt for the conditions that set the stall interrupt flag (STALLIF) in the INTFLAGSACLR/SET register.

For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 1:0 – INTLVL[1:0]: Interrupt Level These bits enable the USB interrupts and select the interrupt level, as described in “Interrupts and Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller” on page 115. In addition, each USB interrupt source must be separately enabled. 18.13.10INTCTRLB – Interrupt Control register B z Bit 7:2 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 1 – TRNIE: Transaction Complete Interrupt Enable Setting this bit enables the transaction complete interrupt for IN and OUT transactions. The INTLVL bits must be nonzero for interrupts to be generated. z Bit 0 – SETUPIE: SETUP Transaction Complete Interrupt Enable Setting this bit enables the SETUP Transaction Complete Interrupt for SETUP transactions. The INTLVL bits must be non-zero for the interrupts to be generated. 18.13.11INTFLAGSACLR/ INTFLAGSASET – Clear/ Set Interrupt Flag register A This register is mapped into two I/O memory locations, one for clearing (INTFLAGSACLR) and one for setting (INTFLAGSASET) the flags. The individual flags can be set by writing a one to their bit locations in INFLAGSASET, and cleared by writing a one to their bit locations in INT-FLAGSACLR. Both memory locations will provide the same result when read, and writing zero to any bit location has no effect. z Bit 7 – SOFIF: Start Of Frame Interrupt Flag This flag is set when a start of frame packet has been received. z Bit 6 – SUSPENDIF: Suspend Interrupt Flag This flag is set when the bus has been idle for 3ms. z Bit 5 – RESUMEIF: Resume Interrupt Flag This flag is set when a non-idle state has been detected on the bus while the USB module is in the suspend state. This interrupt is asynchronous, and is able to wake the CPU from sleep modes where the system clock is stopped, such as power-down and power-save sleep modes. z Bit 4 – RSTIF: Reset Interrupt Flag This flag is set when a reset condition has been detected on the bus.

The individual flags can be set by writing a one to their bit locations in INFLAGSBSET, and cleared by writing a one to their bit locations in INTFLAGSBCLR. Both memory locations will provide the same result when read, and writing zero to any bit location has no effect. z Bit 7:2 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 1 – TRNIF: Transaction Complete Interrupt Flag This flag is when there is a pending packet interrupt in the FIFO. z Bit 0 – SETUPIF: SETUP Transaction Complete Interrupt Flag This flag is set when a SETUP transaction has completed successfully. 18.13.13CALL – Calibration register Low CALL and CALH hold the 16-bit value, CAL. The USB PADs (D- and D+) are calibrated during production to enable operation without requiring external components on the USB lines.

Each endpoint has eight bytes of configuration/status data located in internal SRAM. The address to the first configuration byte is (EPPTR[15:0] + 16 × endpoint address) for output endpoints and (EPPTR[15:0] + 16 × endpoint address + 8) for input endpoints. Some bit locations have different functions, depending on endpoint configuration type or direction, and this is reflected by using two different names for the bit locations. 18.14.1 STATUS – Status register Note: 1. For isochronous endpoints. z Bit 7 – STALL: STALL Flag This flag is set when an IN or OUT transaction has been responded to with a STALL handshake. This flag is cleared by writing a one to its bit location. z Bit 7 – CRC: CRC Error Flag This flag is set for isochronous output endpoints when a CRC error has been detected in an incoming data packet. This flag is cleared by writing a one to its bit location. z Bit 6 – UNF/OVF: Underflow/Overflow Flag UNF: For input endpoints, the UNF flag is set when an input endpoint is not ready to send data to the host in response of an IN token. OVF: For output endpoints, the OVF flag is set when an output endpoint is not ready to accept data from the host following an OUT token. z Bit 5 – TRNCOMPL0: Transaction Complete Flag This flag is set when an IN or OUT transaction has completed successfully. This flag is cleared by writing a one to its bit location. z Bit 4 – SETUP: SETUP Transaction Complete Flag This flag is set when a SETUP, IN, or OUT transaction has completed successfully. This flag is cleared by writing a one to its bit location. z Bit 4 – TRNCOMPL1: Transaction Complete Flag This flag is set when a SETUP, IN, or OUT transaction has completed successfully. This flag is cleared by writing a one to its bit location. z Bit 3 – BANK: Bank Select Flag When ping-pong mode is enabled, this bit indicates which bank will be used for the next transaction. BANK is toggled each time a transaction has completed successfully. This bit is not sed when ping-pong is disabled. This flag is cleared by writing a one to its bit location. z Bit 2 – BUSNACK1: Data Buffer 1 Not Acknowledge Flag When this flag is set, the USB module will discard incoming data to data buffer 1 in an OUT transaction, and will not return any data from data buffer 1 in an IN transaction. For control, bulk, and interrupt endpoints, a NAK handshake is returned. This flag is cleared by writing a one to its bit location.

For control, bulk, and interrupt endpoints, a NAK handshake is returned. This flag is cleared by writing a one to its bit location. z Bit 0 – TOGGLE: Data Toggle Flag This indicates if a DATA0 or DATA1 PID is expected in the next data packet for an output endpoint, and if a DATA0 or DATA1 PID will be sent in the next transaction for an input endpoint. This bit has no effect for isochronous endpoints, where both DATA0 and DATA1 PIDs are accepted for output endpoint, and only DATA0 PIDs are sent for input endpoints. 18.14.2 CTRL – Control Note: 1. For isochronous endpoints. z Bit 7:6 – TYPE[1:0]: Endpoint Type These bits are used to enable and select the endpoint type. If the endpoint is disabled, the remaining seven endpoint configuration bytes are never read or written by the USB module, and their SRAM locations are free to use for other application data. Table 18-4. Endpoint type. z Bit 5 – MULTIPKT: Multipacket Transfer Enable Setting this bit enables multipacket transfers. Multipacket transfer enables a data payload exceeding the maximum packet size of an endpoint to be transferred as multiple packets without interrupts or software intervention. See “Multipacket Transfers” on page 213 for details on multipacket transfers. z Bit 4 – PINGPONG: Ping-pong Enable Setting this bit enables ping-pong operation. Ping-pong operation enables both endpoints (IN and OUT) with same address to be used in the same direction to allow double buffering and maximize throughput. The endpoint in the opposite direction must be disabled when ping-pong operation is enabled. Ping-pong operation is not possible for control endpoints. See “Ping-pong Operation” on page 212 for details. z Bit 3 – INTDSBL: Interrupt Disable Setting this bit disables all enabled interrupts from the endpoint. Hence, only the interrupt flags in the STATUS register are updated when interrupt conditions occur. The FIFO does not store this endpoint configuration table address upon transaction complete for the endpoint when interrupts are disabled for an endpoint. Clearing this bit enables all previously enables interrupts again.

For IN endpoints, AUXDATA holds the total number of bytes sent. AUXDATA should be written to zero when setting up a new transfer. For OUT endpoints, AUXDATA holds the total data size for the complete transfer. This value must be a multiple of the maximum packet size, except for ISO 1023-byte endpoints.

It is I2 C and System Management Bus (SMBus) compatible. The only external hardware needed to implement the bus is one pull-up resistor on each bus line. A device connected to the bus must act as a master or a slave. The master initiates a data transaction by addressing a slave on the bus and telling whether it wants to transmit or receive data. One bus can have many slaves and one or several masters that can take control of the bus. An arbitration process handles priority if more than one master tries to transmit data at the same time. Mechanisms for resolving bus contention are inherent in the protocol. The TWI module supports master and slave functionality. The master and slave functionality are separated from each other, and can be enabled and configured separately. The master module supports multi-master bus operation and arbitration. It contains the baud rate generator. Both 100kHz and 400kHz bus frequency is supported. Quick command and smart mode can be enabled to auto-trigger operations and reduce software complexity. The slave module implements 7-bit address match and general address call recognition in hardware. 10-bit addressing is also supported. A dedicated address mask register can act as a second address match register or as a register for address range masking. The slave continues to operate in all sleep modes, including power-down mode. This enables the slave to wake up the device from all sleep modes on TWI address match. It is possible to disable the address matching to let this be handled in software instead. The TWI module will detect START and STOP conditions, bus collisions, and bus errors. Arbitration lost, errors, collision, and clock hold on the bus are also detected and indicated in separate status flags available in both master and slave modes. It is possible to disable the TWI drivers in the device, and enable a four-wire digital interface for connecting to an external TWI bus driver. This can be used for applications where the device operates from a different VCC voltage than used by the TWI bus. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 233 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 19.3 General TWI Bus Concepts The TWI provides a simple, bidirectional, two-wire communication bus consisting of a serial clock line (SCL) and a serial data line (SDA). The two lines are open-collector lines (wired-AND), and pull-up resistors (Rp) are the only external components needed to drive the bus. The pull-up resistors provide a high level on the lines when none of the connected devices are driving the bus The TWI bus is a simple and efficient method of interconnecting multiple devices on a serial bus. A device connected to the bus can be a master or slave, where the master controls the bus and all communication. Figure 19-1 on page 233 illustrates the TWI bus topology. Figure 19-1. TWI bus topology. A unique address is assigned to all slave devices connected to the bus, and the master will use this to address a slave and initiate a data transaction. Several masters can be connected to the same bus, called a multi-master environment. An arbitration mechanism is provided for resolving bus ownership among masters, since only one master device may own the bus at any given time. A device can contain both master and slave logic, and can emulate multiple slave devices by responding to more than one address. A master indicates the start of a transaction by issuing a START condition (S) on the bus. An address packet with a slave address (ADDRESS) and an indication whether the master wishes to read or write data (R/W) are then sent. After all data packets (DATA) are transferred, the master issues a STOP condition (P) on the bus to end the transaction. The receiver must acknowledge (A) or not-acknowledge (A) each byte received. Figure 19-2 on page 234 shows a TWI transaction. TWI DEVICE #1 RP RP RS RS SDA SCL VCC TWI DEVICE #2 RS RS TWI DEVICE #N RS RS Note: RS is optional XMEGA B [MANUAL] 234 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 19-2. Basic TWI transaction diagram topology for a 7-bit address bus. The master provides the clock signal for the transaction, but a device connected to the bus is allowed to stretch the lowlevel period of the clock to decrease the clock speed. 19.3.1 Electrical Characteristics The TWI module in XMEGA devices follows the electrical specifications and timing of I2 C bus and SMBus. These specifications are not 100% compliant, and so to ensure correct behavior, the inactive bus timeout period should be set in TWI master mode. Refer to “TWI Master Operation” on page 239 for more details. 19.3.2 START and STOP Conditions Two unique bus conditions are used for marking the beginning (START) and end (STOP) of a transaction. The master issues a START condition (S) by indicating a high-to-low transition on the SDA line while the SCL line is kept high. The master completes the transaction by issuing a STOP condition (P), indicated by a low-to-high transition on the SDA line while SCL line is kept high. Figure 19-3. START and STOP conditions. Multiple START conditions can be issued during a single transaction. A START condition that is not directly following a STOP condition is called a repeated START condition (Sr). 19.3.3 Bit Transfer As illustrated by Figure 19-4, a bit transferred on the SDA line must be stable for the entire high period of the SCL line. Consequently the SDA value can only be changed during the low period of the clock. This is ensured in hardware by the TWI module. S ADDRESS P 6 ... 0 R/W ACK ACK 7 ... 0 DATA ACK/NACK 7 ... 0 DATA SDA SCL S ADDRESS R/W A DATA A DATA A/A P Address Packet Data Packet #0 Transaction Data Packet #1 Direction The slave provides data on the bus The master provides data on the bus The master or slave can provide data on the bus SDA SCL START Condition STOP Condition S P XMEGA B [MANUAL] 235 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 19-4. Data validity. Combining bit transfers results in the formation of address and data packets. These packets consist of eight data bits (one byte) with the most-significant bit transferred first, plus a single-bit not-acknowledge (NACK) or acknowledge (ACK) response. The addressed device signals ACK by pulling the SCL line low during the ninth clock cycle, and signals NACK by leaving the line SCL high. 19.3.4 Address Packet After the START condition, a 7-bit address followed by a read/write (R/W) bit is sent. This is always transmitted by the master. A slave recognizing its address will ACK the address by pulling the data line low for the next SCL cycle, while all other slaves should keep the TWI lines released and wait for the next START and address. The address, R/W bit, and acknowledge bit combined is the address packet. Only one address packet for each START condition is allowed, also when 10-bit addressing is used. The R/W bit specifies the direction of the transaction. If the R/W bit is low, it indicates a master write transaction, and the master will transmit its data after the slave has acknowledged its address. If the R/W bit is high, it indicates a master read transaction, and the slave will transmit its data after acknowledging its address. 19.3.5 Data Packet An address packet is followed by one or more data packets. All data packets are nine bits long, consisting of one data byte and an acknowledge bit. The direction bit in the previous address packet determines the direction in which the data are transferred. 19.3.6 Transaction A transaction is the complete transfer from a START to a STOP condition, including any repeated START conditions in between. The TWI standard defines three fundamental transaction modes: Master write, master read, and a combined transaction. Figure 19-5 on page 235 illustrates the master write transaction. The master initiates the transaction by issuing a START condition (S) followed by an address packet with the direction bit set to zero (ADDRESS+W). Figure 19-5. Master write transaction. Assuming the slave acknowledges the address, the master can start transmitting data (DATA) and the slave will ACK or NACK (A/A) each byte. If no data packets are to be transmitted, the master terminates the transaction by issuing a STOP condition (P) directly after the address packet. There are no limitations to the number of data packets that can be SDA SCL DATA Valid Change Allowed S ADDRESS W A DATA A DATA A/A P Address Packet Data Packet Transaction N data packets XMEGA B [MANUAL] 236 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 transferred. If the slave signals a NACK to the data, the master must assume that the slave cannot receive any more data and terminate the transaction. Figure 19-6 on page 236 illustrates the master read transaction. The master initiates the transaction by issuing a START condition followed by an address packet with the direction bit set to one (ADDRESS+R). The addressed slave must acknowledge the address for the master to be allowed to continue the transaction. Figure 19-6. Master read transaction. Assuming the slave acknowledges the address, the master can start receiving data from the slave. There are no limitations to the number of data packets that can be transferred. The slave transmits the data while the master signals ACK or NACK after each data byte. The master terminates the transfer with a NACK before issuing a STOP condition. Figure 19-7 illustrates a combined transaction. A combined transaction consists of several read and write transactions separated by repeated START conditions (Sr). Figure 19-7. Combined Transaction. 19.3.7 Clock and Clock Stretching All devices connected to the bus are allowed to stretch the low period of the clock to slow down the overall clock frequency or to insert wait states while processing data. A device that needs to stretch the clock can do this by holding/forcing the SCL line low after it detects a low level on the line. Three types of clock stretching can be defined, as shown in Figure 19-8. Figure 19-8. Clock stretching(1). Note: 1. Clock stretching is not supported by all I2 C slaves and masters. If a slave device is in sleep mode and a START condition is detected, the clock stretching normally works during the wake-up period. For AVR XMEGA devices, the clock stretching will be either directly before or after the ACK/NACK bit, as AVR XMEGA devices do not need to wake up for transactions that are not addressed to it. A slave device can slow down the bus frequency by stretching the clock periodically on a bit level. This allows the slave to run at a lower system clock frequency. However, the overall performance of the bus will be reduced accordingly. Both S ADDRESS R A DATA A DATA A P Transaction Address Packet Data Packet N data packets S ADDRESS R/W A DATA A/A Sr ADDRESS R/W DATA A/A P Transaction Address Packet #1 N Data Packets Address Packet #2 M Data Packets Direction Direction A SDA SCL S bit 7 bit 6 bit 0 ACK/NACK Periodic clock stretching Random clock stretching Wakeup clock stretching XMEGA B [MANUAL] 237 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 the master and slave device can randomly stretch the clock on a byte level basis before and after the ACK/NACK bit. This provides time to process incoming or prepare outgoing data, or perform other time-critical tasks. In the case where the slave is stretching the clock, the master will be forced into a wait state until the slave is ready, and vice versa. 19.3.8 Arbitration A master can start a bus transaction only if it has detected that the bus is idle. As the TWI bus is a multi-master bus, it is possible that two devices may initiate a transaction at the same time. This results in multiple masters owning the bus simultaneously. This is solved using an arbitration scheme where the master loses control of the bus if it is not able to transmit a high level on the SDA line. The masters who lose arbitration must then wait until the bus becomes idle (i.e., wait for a STOP condition) before attempting to reacquire bus ownership. Slave devices are not involved in the arbitration procedure. Figure 19-9. TWI arbitration. Figure 19-9 shows an example where two TWI masters are contending for bus ownership. Both devices are able to issue a START condition, but DEVICE1 loses arbitration when attempting to transmit a high level (bit 5) while DEVICE2 is transmitting a low level. Arbitration between a repeated START condition and a data bit, a STOP condition and a data bit, or a repeated START condition and a STOP condition are not allowed and will require special handling by software. 19.3.9 Synchronization A clock synchronization algorithm is necessary for solving situations where more than one master is trying to control the SCL line at the same time. The algorithm is based on the same principles used for the clock stretching previously described. Figure 19-10 shows an example where two masters are competing for control over the bus clock. The SCL line is the wired-AND result of the two masters clock outputs. DEVICE1_SDA SDA (wired-AND) DEVICE2_SDA SCL S bit 7 bit 6 bit 5 bit 4 DEVICE1 Loses arbitration XMEGA B [MANUAL] 238 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 19-10.Clock synchronization. A high-to-low transition on the SCL line will force the line low for all masters on the bus, and they will start timing their low clock period. The timing length of the low clock period can vary among the masters. When a master (DEVICE1 in this case) has completed its low period, it releases the SCL line. However, the SCL line will not go high until all masters have released it. Consequently, the SCL line will be held low by the device with the longest low period (DEVICE2). Devices with shorter low periods must insert a wait state until the clock is released. All masters start their high period when the SCL line is released by all devices and has gone high. The device which first completes its high period (DEVICE1) forces the clock line low, and the procedure is then repeated. The result is that the device with the shortest clock period determines the high period, while the low period of the clock is determined by the device with the longest clock period. 19.4 TWI Bus State Logic The bus state logic continuously monitors the activity on the TWI bus lines when the master is enabled. It continues to operate in all sleep modes, including power-down. The bus state logic includes START and STOP condition detectors, collision detection, inactive bus timeout detection, and a bit counter. These are used to determine the bus state. Software can get the current bus state by reading the bus state bits in the master status register. The bus state can be unknown, idle, busy, or owner, and is determined according to the state diagram shown in Figure 19-11. The values of the bus state bits according to state are shown in binary in the figure. DEVICE1_SCL SCL (wired-AND) Wait State DEVICE2_SCL High Period Count Low Period Count XMEGA B [MANUAL] 239 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 19-11.Bus state, state diagram. After a system reset and/or TWI master enable, the bus state is unknown. The bus state machine can be forced to enter idle by writing to the bus state bits accordingly. If no state is set by application software, the bus state will become idle when the first STOP condition is detected. If the master inactive bus timeout is enabled, the bus state will change to idle on the occurrence of a timeout. After a known bus state is established, only a system reset or disabling of the TWI master will set the state to unknown. When the bus is idle, it is ready for a new transaction. If a START condition generated externally is detected, the bus becomes busy until a STOP condition is detected. The STOP condition will change the bus state to idle. If the master inactive bus timeout is enabled, the bus state will change from busy to idle on the occurrence of a timeout. If a START condition is generated internally while in idle state, the owner state is entered. If the complete transaction was performed without interference, i.e., no collisions are detected, the master will issue a STOP condition and the bus state will change back to idle. If a collision is detected, the arbitration is assumed lost and the bus state becomes busy until a STOP condition is detected. A repeated START condition will only change the bus state if arbitration is lost during the issuing of the repeated START. Arbitration during repeated START can be lost only if the arbitration has been ongoing since the first START condition. This happens if two masters send the exact same ADDRESS+DATA before one of the masters issues a repeated START (Sr). 19.5 TWI Master Operation The TWI master is byte-oriented, with an optional interrupt after each byte. There are separate interrupts for master write and master read. Interrupt flags can also be used for polled operation. There are dedicated status flags for indicating ACK/NACK received, bus error, arbitration lost, clock hold, and bus state. When an interrupt flag is set, the SCL line is forced low. This will give the master time to respond or handle any data, and will in most cases require software interaction. Figure 19-12 shows the TWI master operation. The diamond shaped symbols (SW) indicate where software interaction is required. Clearing the interrupt flags releases the SCL line. P + Timeout Write ADDRESS IDLE (0b01) S BUSY (0b11) UNKNOWN (0b00) OWNER (0b10) Arbitration Lost Command P Write ADDRESS(Sr) Sr (S) RESET P + Timeout XMEGA B [MANUAL] 240 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 19-12.TWI master operation. The number of interrupts generated is kept to a minimum by automatic handling of most conditions. Quick command and smart mode can be enabled to auto-trigger operations and reduce software complexity. 19.5.1 Transmitting Address Packets After issuing a START condition, the master starts performing a bus transaction when the master address register is written with the 7-bit slave address and direction bit. If the bus is busy, the TWI master will wait until the bus becomes idle before issuing the START condition. Depending on arbitration and the R/W direction bit, one of four distinct cases (M1 to M4) arises following the address packet. The different cases must be handled in software. 19.5.1.1 Case M1: Arbitration lost or bus error during address packet If arbitration is lost during the sending of the address packet, the master write interrupt flag and arbitration lost flag are both set. Serial data output to the SDA line is disabled, and the SCL line is released. The master is no longer allowed to perform any operation on the bus until the bus state has changed back to idle. A bus error will behave in the same way as an arbitration lost condition, but the error flag is set in addition to the write interrupt and arbitration lost flags. 19.5.1.2 Case M2: Address packet transmit complete - Address not acknowledged by slave If no slave device responds to the address, the master write interrupt flag and the master received acknowledge flag are set. The clock hold is active at this point, preventing further activity on the bus. 19.5.1.3 Case M3: Address packet transmit complete - Direction bit cleared If the master receives an ACK from the slave, the master write interrupt flag is set and the master received acknowledge flag is cleared. The clock hold is active at this point, preventing further activity on the bus. BUSY P IDLE S BUSY Sr P M3 M3 M2 M2 M1 M1 R DATA ADDRESS W DATA A/A Wait for IDLE APPLICATION SW SW Sr P M3 M2 SW A BUSY M4 A/A A/A A/A M4 A IDLE IDLE MASTER READ INTERRUPT + HOLD MASTER WRITE INTERRUPT + HOLD SW SW SW R/W BUSY SW Driver software The master provides data on the bus Slave provides data on the bus A A R/W BUSY M4 Bus state Mn Diagram connections XMEGA B [MANUAL] 241 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 19.5.1.4 Case M4: Address packet transmit complete - Direction bit set If the master receives an ACK from the slave, the master proceeds to receive the next byte of data from the slave. When the first data byte is received, the master read interrupt flag is set and the master received acknowledge flag is cleared. The clock hold is active at this point, preventing further activity on the bus. 19.5.2 Transmitting Data Packets Assuming case M3 above, the master can start transmitting data by writing to the master data register. If the transfer was successful, the slave will signal with ACK. The master write interrupt flag is set, the master received acknowledge flag is cleared, and the master can prepare new data to send. During data transfer, the master is continuously monitoring the bus for collisions. The received acknowledge flag must be checked by software for each data packet transmitted before the next data packet can be transferred. The master is not allowed to continue transmitting data if the slave signals a NACK. If a collision is detected and the master loses arbitration during transfer, the arbitration lost flag is set. 19.5.3 Receiving Data Packets Assuming case M4 above, the master has already received one byte from the slave. The master read interrupt flag is set, and the master must prepare to receive new data. The master must respond to each byte with ACK or NACK. Indicating a NACK might not be successfully executed, as arbitration can be lost during the transmission. If a collision is detected, the master loses arbitration and the arbitration lost flag is set. 19.6 TWI Slave Operation The TWI slave is byte-oriented with optional interrupts after each byte. There are separate slave data and address/stop interrupts. Interrupt flags can also be used for polled operation. There are dedicated status flags for indicating ACK/NACK received, clock hold, collision, bus error, and read/write direction. When an interrupt flag is set, the SCL line is forced low. This will give the slave time to respond or handle data, and will in most cases require software interaction. Figure 19-13. shows the TWI slave operation. The diamond shapes symbols (SW) indicate where software interaction is required. Figure 19-13.TWI slave operation. The number of interrupts generated is kept to a minimum by automatic handling of most conditions. Quick command can be enabled to auto-trigger operations and reduce software complexity. Promiscuous mode can be enabled to allow the slave to respond to all received addresses.

When this happens, the successive address byte will be received and checked by the address match logic, and the slave will ACK a correct address and store the address in the DATA register. If the received address is not a match, the slave will not acknowledge and store address, and will wait for a new START condition. The slave address/stop interrupt flag is set when a START condition succeeded by a valid address byte is detected. A general call address will also set the interrupt flag. A START condition immediately followed by a STOP condition is an illegal operation, and the bus error flag is set. The R/W direction flag reflects the direction bit received with the address. This can be read by software to determine the type of operation currently in progress. Depending on the R/W direction bit and bus condition, one of four distinct cases (S1 to S4) arises following the address packet. The different cases must be handled in software. 19.6.1.1 Case S1: Address packet accepted - Direction bit set If the R/W direction flag is set, this indicates a master read operation. The SCL line is forced low by the slave, stretching the bus clock. If ACK is sent by the slave, the slave hardware will set the data interrupt flag indicating data is needed for transmit. Data, repeated START, or STOP can be received after this. If NACK is sent by the slave, the slave will wait for a new START condition and address match. 19.6.1.2 Case S2: Address packet accepted - Direction bit cleared If the R/W direction flag is cleared, this indicates a master write operation. The SCL line is forced low, stretching the bus clock. If ACK is sent by the slave, the slave will wait for data to be received. Data, repeated START, or STOP can be received after this. If NACK is sent, the slave will wait for a new START condition and address match. 19.6.1.3 Case S3: Collision If the slave is not able to send a high level or NACK, the collision flag is set, and it will disable the data and acknowledge output from the slave logic. The clock hold is released. A START or repeated START condition will be accepted. 19.6.1.4 Case S4: STOP condition received. When the STOP condition is received, the slave address/stop flag will be set, indicating that a STOP condition, and not an address match, occurred. 19.6.2 Receiving Data Packets The slave will know when an address packet with R/W direction bit cleared has been successfully received. After acknowledging this, the slave must be ready to receive data. When a data packet is received, the data interrupt flag is set and the slave must indicate ACK or NACK. After indicating a NACK, the slave must expect a STOP or repeated START condition. 19.6.3 Transmitting Data Packets The slave will know when an address packet with R/W direction bit set has been successfully received. It can then start sending data by writing to the slave data register. When a data packet transmission is completed, the data interrupt flag is set. If the master indicates NACK, the slave must stop transmitting data and expect a STOP or repeated START condition. 19.7 Enabling External Driver Interface An external driver interface can be enabled. When this is done, the internal TWI drivers with input filtering and slew rate control are bypassed. The normal I/O pin function is used, and the direction must be configured by the user software. When this mode is enabled, an external TWI compliant tri-state driver is needed for connecting to a TWI bus. By default, port pins 0 (Pn0) and 1 (Pn1) are used for SDA and SCL. The external driver interface uses port pins 0 to 3 for the SDA_IN, SCL_IN, SDA_OUT, and SCL_OUT signals.

In addition the INTLVL bits must be nonzero for TWI master interrupts to be generated. z Bit 4 – WIEN: Write Interrupt Enable Setting the write interrupt enable (WIEN) bit enables the write interrupt when the write interrupt flag (WIF) in the STATUS register is set. In addition the INTLVL bits must be nonzero for TWI master interrupts to be generated. z Bit 3 – ENABLE: Enable TWI Master Setting the enable TWI master (ENABLE) bit enables the TWI master. z Bit 2:0 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use.

For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 3:2 – TIMEOUT[1:0]: Inactive Bus Timeout Setting the inactive bus timeout (TIMEOUT) bits to a nonzero value will enable the inactive bus timeout supervisor. If the bus is inactive for longer than the TIMEOUT setting, the bus state logic will enter the idle state. Table 19-3 lists the timeout settings.

TWI master inactive bus timeout settings. z Bit 1 – QCEN: Quick Command Enable When quick command is enabled, the corresponding interrupt flag is set immediately after the slave acknowledges the address (read or write interrupt). At this point, software can issue either a STOP or a repeated START condition. z Bit 0 – SMEN: Smart Mode Enable Setting this bit enables smart mode. When smart mode is enabled, the acknowledge action, as set by the ACKACT bit in the CTRLC register, is sent immediately after reading the DATA register. 19.9.3 CTRLC – Control register C z Bits 7:3 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 2 – ACKACT: Acknowledge Action This bit defines the master's acknowledge behavior in master read mode. The acknowledge action is executed when a command is written to the CMD bits. If SMEN in the CTRLB register is set, the acknowledge action is performed when the DATA register is read. Table 19-4 lists the acknowledge actions. Table 19-4. ACKACT bit description. z Bit 1:0 – CMD[1:0]: Command Writing the command (CMD) bits triggers a master operation as defined by Table 19-5. The CMD bits are strobe bits, and always read as zero. The acknowledge action is only valid in master read mode (R). In master write mode (W), a command will only result in a repeated START or STOP condition. The ACKACT bit and the CMD bits can be written at the same time, and then the acknowledge action will be updated before the command is triggered.

CMD bit description. Writing a command to the CMD bits will clear the master interrupt flags and the CLKHOLD flag. 19.9.4 STATUS – Status register z Bit 7 – RIF: Read Interrupt Flag This flag is set when a byte is successfully received in master read mode; i.e., no arbitration was lost or bus error occurred during the operation. Writing a one to this bit location will clear RIF. When this flag is set, the master forces the SCL line low, stretching the TWI clock period. Clearing the interrupt flags will release the SCL line. This flag is also cleared automatically when: z Writing to the ADDR register z Writing to the DATA register z Reading the DATA register z Writing a valid command to the CMD bits in the CTRLC register z Bit 6 – WIF: Write Interrupt Flag This flag is set when a byte is transmitted in master write mode. The flag is set regardless of the occurrence of a bus error or an arbitration lost condition. WIF is also set if arbitration is lost during sending of a NACK in master read mode, and if issuing a START condition when the bus state is unknown. Writing a one to this bit location will clear WIF. When this flag is set, the master forces the SCL line low, stretching the TWI clock period. Clearing the interrupt flags will release the SCL line. The flag is also cleared automatically for the same conditions as RIF. z Bit 5 – CLKHOLD: Clock Hold This flag is set when the master is holding the SCL line low. This is a status flag and a read-only flag that is set when RIF or WIF is set. Clearing the interrupt flags and releasing the SCL line will indirectly clear this flag. The flag is also cleared automatically for the same conditions as RIF.

This is a read-only flag. When read as zero, the most recent acknowledge bit from the slave was ACK, and when read as one the most recent acknowledge bit was NACK. z Bit 3 – ARBLOST: Arbitration Lost This flag is set if arbitration is lost while transmitting a high data bit or a NACK bit, or while issuing a START or repeated START condition on the bus. Writing a one to this bit location will clear ARBLOST. Writing the ADDR register will automatically clear ARBLOST. z Bit 2 – BUSERR: Bus Error This flag is set if an illegal bus condition has occurred. An illegal bus condition occurs if a repeated START or a STOP condition is detected, and the number of received or transmitted bits from the previous START condition is not a multiple of nine. Writing a one to this bit location will clear BUSERR. Writing the ADDR register will automatically clear BUSERR. z Bit 1:0 – BUSSTATE[1:0]: Bus State These bits indicate the current TWI bus state as defined in Table 19-6. The change of bus state is dependent on bus activity. Refer to the “TWI Bus State Logic” on page 238. Table 19-6. TWI master bus state. Writing 01 to the BUSSTATE bits forces the bus state logic into the idle state. The bus state logic cannot be forced into any other state. When the master is disabled, and after reset, the bus state logic is disabled and the bus state is unknown. 19.9.5 BAUD – Baud Rate register The baud rate (BAUD) register defines the relation between the system clock and the TWI bus clock (SCL) frequency. The frequency relation can be expressed by using the following equation: [1] The BAUD register must be set to a value that results in a TWI bus clock frequency (fTWI) equal or less than 100kHz or 400kHz, depending on which standard the application should comply with. The following equation [2] expresses equation [1] solved for the BAUD value: BUSSTATE[1:0] Group Configuration Description 00 UNKNOWN Unknown bus state 01 IDLE Idle bus state 10 OWNER Owner bus state 11 BUSY Busy bus state Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 +0x04 BAUD[7:0] Read/Write R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W Initial Value 0 0 0 00000 f TWI f sys 2(5 + ( ) BAUD ) = ---------------------------------------[Hz] XMEGA B [MANUAL] 248 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 [2] The BAUD register should be written only while the master is disabled. 19.9.6 ADDR – Address register When the address (ADDR) register is written with a slave address and the R/W bit while the bus is idle, a START condition is issued and the 7-bit slave address and the R/W bit are transmitted on the bus. If the bus is already owned when ADDR is written, a repeated START is issued. If the previous transaction was a master read and no acknowledge is sent yet, the acknowledge action is sent before the repeated START condition. After completing the operation and the acknowledge bit from the slave is received, the SCL line is forced low if arbitration was not lost. WIF is set. If the bus state is unknown when ADDR is written, WIF is set and BUSERR is set. All TWI master flags are automatically cleared when ADDR is written. This includes BUSERR, ARBLOST, RIF, and WIF. The master ADDR can be read at any time without interfering with ongoing bus activity. 19.9.7 DATA – Data register The data (DATA) register is used when transmitting and receiving data. During data transfer, data are shifted from/to the DATA register and to/from the bus. This implies that the DATA register cannot be accessed during byte transfers, and this is prevented by hardware. The DATA register can only be accessed when the SCL line is held low by the master; i.e., when CLKHOLD is set. In master write mode, writing the DATA register will trigger a data byte transfer followed by the master receiving the acknowledge bit from the slave. WIF and CLKHOLD are set. In master read mode, RIF and CLKHOLD are set when one byte is received in the DATA register. If smart mode is enabled, reading the DATA register will trigger the bus operation as set by the ACKACT bit. If a bus error occurs during reception, WIF and BUSERR are set instead of RIF. Accessing the DATA register will clear the master interrupt flags and CLKHOLD.

The INTLVL bits must be nonzero for the interrupt to be generated. z Bit 4 – APIEN: Address/Stop Interrupt Enable Setting the address/stop interrupt enable (APIEN) bit enables the address/stop interrupt when the address/stop interrupt flag (APIF) in the STATUS register is set. The INTLVL bits must be nonzero for interrupt to be generated. z Bit 3 – ENABLE: Enable TWI Slave Setting this bit enables the TWI slave. z Bit 2 – PIEN: Stop Interrupt Enable Setting the this bit will cause APIF in the STATUS register to be set when a STOP condition is detected. z Bit 1 – PMEN: Promiscuous Mode Enable By setting the this bit, the slave address match logic responds to all received addresses. If this bit is cleared, the address match logic uses the ADDR register to determine which address to recognize as its own address. z Bit 0 – SMEN: Smart Mode Enable This bit enables smart mode. When Smart mode is enabled, the acknowledge action, as set by the ACKACT bit in the CTRLB register, is sent immediately after reading the DATA register. 19.10.2 CTRLB – Control register B z Bit 7:3 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 2 – ACKACT: Acknowledge Action This bit defines the slave's acknowledge behavior after an address or data byte is received from the master. The acknowledge action is executed when a command is written to the CMD bits. If the SMEN bit in the CTRLA register is set, the acknowledge action is performed when the DATA register is read.

The operation is dependent on the slave interrupt flags, DIF and APIF. The acknowledge action is only executed when the slave receives data bytes or address byte from the master. Table 19-8. TWI slave command. Writing the CMD bits will automatically clear the slave interrupt flags and CLKHOLD, and release the SCL line.

Writing a one to this bit location will clear DIF. When this flag is set, the slave forces the SCL line low, stretching the TWI clock period. Clearing the interrupt flags will release the SCL line. This flag is also cleared automatically when writing a valid command to the CMD bits in the CTRLB register z Bit 6 – APIF: Address/Stop Interrupt Flag This flag is set when the slave detects that a valid address has been received, or when a transmit collision is detected. If the PIEN bit in the CTRLA register is set, a STOP condition on the bus will also set APIF. Writing a one to this bit location will clear APIF. When set for an address interrupt, the slave forces the SCL line low, stretching the TWI clock period. Clearing the interrupt flags will release the SCL line. The flag is also cleared automatically for the same condition as DIF. z Bit 5 – CLKHOLD: Clock Hold This flag is set when the slave is holding the SCL line low.This is a status flag and a read-only bit that is set when DIF or APIF is set. Clearing the interrupt flags and releasing the SCL line will indirectly clear this flag. z Bit 4 – RXACK: Received Acknowledge This flag contains the most recently received acknowledge bit from the master. This is a read-only flag. When read as zero, the most recent acknowledge bit from the maser was ACK, and when read as one, the most recent acknowledge bit was NACK. z Bit 3 – COLL: Collision This flag is set when a slave has not been able to transfer a high data bit or a NACK bit. If a collision is detected, the slave will commence its normal operation, disable data, and acknowledge output, and no low values will be shifted out onto the SDA line. Writing a one to this bit location will clear COLL. The flag is also cleared automatically when a START or repeated START condition is detected. z Bit 2 – BUSERR: TWI Slave Bus Error This flag is set when an illegal bus condition occurs during a transfer. An illegal bus condition occurs if a repeated START or a STOP condition is detected, and the number of bits from the previous START condition is not a multiple of nine. Writing a one to this bit location will clear BUSERR. For bus errors to be detected, the bus state logic must be enabled. This is done by enabling the TWI master. z Bit 1 – DIR: Read/Write Direction The R/W direction (DIR) flag reflects the direction bit from the last address packet received from a master. When this bit is read as one, a master read operation is in progress. When read as zero, a master write operation is in progress. z Bit 0 – AP: Slave Address or Stop This flag indicates whether a valid address or a STOP condition caused the last setting of APIF in the STATUS register. Table 19-9. TWI slave address or stop.

The lsb of ADDR is used to enable recognition of the general call address (0x00). z Bit 7:1 – ADDR[7:1]: TWI Slave Address This register contains the TWI slave address used by the slave address match logic to determine if a master has addressed the slave. The seven most-significant bits (ADDR[7:1]) represent the slave address. When using 10-bit addressing, the address match logic only supports hardware address recognition of the first byte of a 10-bit address. By setting ADDR[7:1] = 0b11110nn, ”nn” represents bits 9 and 8 of the slave address. The next byte received is bits 7 to 0 in the 10-bit address, and this must be handled by software. When the address match logic detects that a valid address byte is received, APIF is set and the DIR flag is updated. If the PMEN bit in CTRLA is set, the address match logic responds to all addresses transmitted on the TWI bus. The ADDR register is not used in this mode. z Bit 0 – ADDR: General Call Recognition Enable When ADDR[0] is set, this enables general call address recognition logic so the device can respond to a general address call that addresses all devices on the bus. 19.10.5 DATA – Data register The data (DATA) register is used when transmitting and received data. During data transfer, data are shifted from/to the DATA register and to/from the bus. This implies that the DATA register cannot be accessed during byte transfers, and this is prevented by hardware. The DATA register can be accessed only when the SCL line is held low by the slave; i.e., when CLKHOLD is set. When a master is reading data from the slave, data to send must be written to the DATA register. The byte transfer is started when the master starts to clock the data byte from the slave, followed by the slave receiving the acknowledge bit from the master. DIF and CLKHOLD are set. When a master writes data to the slave, DIF and CLKHOLD are set when one byte has been received in the DATA register. If smart mode is enabled, reading the DATA register will trigger the bus operation as set by the ACKACT bit. Accessing the DATA register will clear the slave interrupt flags and CLKHOLD. When an address match occurs, the received address will be stored in the DATA register.

If ADDREN is set to zero, ADDRMASK can be loaded with a 7-bit slave address mask. Each bit in ADDRMASK can mask (disable) the corresponding address bit in the ADDR register. If the mask bit is one, the address match between the incoming address bit and the corresponding bit in ADDR is ignored; i.e., masked bits will always match. If ADDREN is set to one, ADDRMASK can be loaded with a second slave address in addition to the ADDR register. In this mode, the slave will match on two unique addresses, one in ADDR and the other in ADDRMASK. z Bit 0 – ADDREN: Address Enable By default, this bit is zero, and the ADDRMASK bits acts as an address mask to the ADDR register. If this bit is set to one, the slave address match logic responds to the two unique addresses in ADDR and ADDRMASK.

It allows fast communication between an XMEGA device and peripheral devices or between several microcontrollers. The SPI supports full-duplex communication. A device connected to the bus must act as a master or slave.The master initiates and controls all data transactions. The interconnection between master and slave devices with SPI is shown in Figure 20-1 on page 255. The system consists of two shift registers and a master clock generator. The SPI master initiates the communication cycle by pulling the slave select (SS) signal low for the desired slave. Master and slave prepare the data to be sent in their respective shift registers, and the master generates the required clock pulses on the SCK line to interchange data. Data are always shifted from master to slave on the master output, slave input (MOSI) line, and from slave to master on the master input, slave output (MISO) line. After each data packet, the master can synchronize the slave by pulling the SS line high. Figure 20-1. SPI master-slave interconnection. The SPI module is unbuffered in the transmit direction and single buffered in the receive direction. This means that bytes to be transmitted cannot be written to the SPI DATA register before the entire shift cycle is completed. When receiving data, a received character must be read from the DATA register before the next character has been completely shifted in. Otherwise, the first byte will be lost. In SPI slave mode, the control logic will sample the incoming signal on the SCK pin. To ensure correct sampling of this clock signal, the minimum low and high periods must each be longer than two CPU clock cycles. When the SPI module is enabled, the data direction of the MOSI, MISO, SCK, and SS pins is overridden according to Table 20-1. The pins with user-defined direction must be configured from software to have the correct direction according to the application. SHIFT ENABLE XMEGA B [MANUAL] 256 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Table 20-1. SPI pin override and directions. 20.3 Master Mode In master mode, the SPI interface has no automatic control of the SS line. If the SS pin is used, it must be configured as output and controlled by user software. If the bus consists of several SPI slaves and/or masters, a SPI master can use general purpose I/O pins to control the SS line to each of the slaves on the bus. Writing a byte to the DATA register starts the SPI clock generator and the hardware shifts the eight bits into the selected slave. After shifting one byte, the SPI clock generator stops and the SPI interrupt flag is set. The master may continue to shift the next byte by writing new data to the DATA register, or can signal the end of the transfer by pulling the SS line high. The last incoming byte will be kept in the buffer register. If the SS pin is not used and is configured as input, it must be held high to ensure master operation. If the SS pin is set as input and is being driven low, the SPI module will interpret this as another master trying to take control of the bus. To avoid bus contention, the master will take the following action: 1. The master enters slave mode. 2. The SPI interrupt flag is set. 20.4 Slave Mode In slave mode, the SPI module will remain sleeping with the MISO line tri-stated as long as the SS pin is driven high. In this state, software may update the contents of the DATA register, but the data will not be shifted out by incoming clock pulses on the SCK pin until the SS pin is driven low. If SS is driven low, the slave will start to shift out data on the first SCK clock pulse. When one byte has been completely shifted, the SPI interrupt flag is set. The slave may continue placing new data to be sent into the DATA register before reading the incoming data. The last incoming byte will be kept in the buffer register. When SS is driven high, the SPI logic is reset, and the SPI slave will not receive any new data. Any partially received packet in the shift register will be dropped. As the SS pin is used to signal the start and end of a transfer, it is also useful for doing packet/byte synchronization, keeping the slave bit counter synchronous with the master clock generator. 20.5 Data Modes There are four combinations of SCK phase and polarity with respect to serial data. The SPI data transfer formats are shown in Figure 20-2. Data bits are shifted out and latched in on opposite edges of the SCK signal, ensuring sufficient time for data signals to stabilize. The leading edge is the first clock edge of a clock cycle. The trailing edge is the last clock edge of a clock cycle.

SPI transfer modes. 20.6 DMA Support DMA support on the SPI module is available only in slave mode. The SPI slave can trigger a DMA transfer as one byte has been shifted into the DATA register. It is possible, however, to use the XMEGA USART in SPI mode and then have DMA support in master mode. For details, refer to “USART in Master SPI Mode” on page 273.

This bit must be set to enable any SPI operations. z Bit 5 – DORD: Data Order DORD decides the data order when a byte is shifted out from the DATA register. When DORD is written to one, the leastsignificant bit (lsb) of the data byte is transmitted first, and when DORD is written to zero, the most-significant bit (msb) of the data byte is transmitted first. z Bit 4 – MASTER: Master Select This bit selects master mode when written to one, and slave mode when written to zero. If SS is configured as an input and driven low while master mode is set, master mode will be cleared. z Bit 3:2 – MODE[1:0]: Transfer Mode These bits select the transfer mode. The four combinations of SCK phase and polarity with respect to the serial data are shown in Table 20-2. These bits decide whether the first edge of a clock cycle (leading edge) is rising or falling, and whether data setup and sample occur on the leading or trailing edge. When the leading edge is rising, the SCK signal is low when idle, and when the leading edge is falling, the SCK signal is high when idle. Table 20-2.

The enabled interrupt will be triggered when IF in the STATUS register is set. 20.7.3 STATUS – Status register z Bit 7 – IF: Interrupt Flag This flag is set when a serial transfer is complete and one byte is completely shifted in/out of the DATA register. If SS is configured as input and is driven low when the SPI is in master mode, this will also set this flag. IF is cleared by hardware when executing the corresponding interrupt vector. Alternatively, the IF flag can be cleared by first reading the STATUS register when IF is set, and then accessing the DATA register. z Bit 6 – WRCOL: Write Collision Flag The WRCOL flag is set if the DATA register is written during a data transfer. This flag is cleared by first reading the STATUS register when WRCOL is set, and then accessing the DATA register. z Bit 5:0 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use.

The USART supports full-duplex communication and asynchronous and synchronous operation. The USART can be configured to operate in SPI master mode and used for SPI communication. Communication is frame based, and the frame format can be customized to support a wide range of standards. The USART is buffered in both directions, enabling continued data transmission without any delay between frames. Separate interrupts for receive and transmit complete enable fully interrupt driven communication. Frame error and buffer overflow are detected in hardware and indicated with separate status flags. Even or odd parity generation and parity check can also be enabled. A block diagram of the USART is shown in Figure 21-1 on page 262. The main functional blocks are the clock generator, the transmitter, and the receiver, which are indicated in dashed boxes. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 262 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 21-1. USART block diagram. The clock generator includes a fractional baud rate generator that is able to generate a wide range of USART baud rates from any system clock frequencies. This removes the need to use an external crystal oscillator with a specific frequency to achieve a required baud rate. It also supports external clock input in synchronous slave operation. The transmitter consists of a single write buffer (DATA), a shift register, and a parity generator. The write buffer allows continuous data transmission without any delay between frames. The receiver consists of a two-level receive buffer (DATA) and a shift register. Data and clock recovery units ensure robust synchronization and noise filtering during asynchronous data reception. It includes frame error, buffer overflow, and parity error detection. When the USART is set in master SPI mode, all USART-specific logic is disabled, leaving the transmit and receive buffers, shift registers, and baud rate generator enabled. Pin control and interrupt generation are identical in both modes. The registers are used in both modes, but their functionality differs for some control settings. An IRCOM module can be enabled for one USART to support IrDA 1.4 physical compliant pulse modulation and demodulation for baud rates up to 115.2kbps. For details, refer to “IRCOM - IR Communication Module” on page 282. 21.3 Clock Generation The clock used for baud rate generation and for shifting and sampling data bits is generated internally by the fractional baud rate generator or externally from the transfer clock (XCK) pin. Five modes of clock generation are supported: normal and double-speed asynchronous mode, master and slave synchronous mode, and master SPI mode.

Clock generation logic, block diagram. 21.3.1 Internal Clock Generation - The Fractional Baud Rate Generator The fractional baud rate generator is used for internal clock generation for asynchronous modes, synchronous master mode, and master SPI mode operation. The output frequency generated (fBAUD) is determined by the period setting (BSEL), an optional scale setting (BSCALE), and the peripheral clock frequency (fPER). Table 21-1 contains equations for calculating the baud rate (in bits per second) and for calculating the BSEL value for each mode of operation. It also shows the maximum baud rate versus peripheral clock frequency. BSEL can be set to any value between 0 and 4095. BSCALE can be set to any value between -7 and +7, and increases or decreases the baud rate slightly to provide the fractional baud rate scaling of the baud rate generator. When BSEL is 0, BSCALE must also be 0. Also, the value 2ABS(BSCALE) must at most be one half of the minimum number of clock cycles a frame requires. For more details, see “Fractional Baud Rate Generation” on page 271. Table 21-1. Equations for calculating baud rate register settings. Note: 1.

The XCK clock input is sampled on the peripheral clock frequency (fPER), and the maximum XCK clock frequency (fXCK)is limited by the following: For each high and low period, XCK clock cycles must be sampled twice by the peripheral clock. If the XCK clock has jitter, or if the high/low period duty cycle is not 50/50, the maximum XCK clock speed must be reduced or the peripheral clock must be increased accordingly. 21.3.3 Double Speed Operation Double speed operation allows for higher baud rates under asynchronous operation with lower peripheral clock frequencies. When this is enabled, the baud rate for a given asynchronous baud rate setting shown in Table 21-1 on page 263 will be doubled. In this mode, the receiver will use half the number of samples (reduced from 16 to 8) for data sampling and clock recovery. Due to the reduced sampling, a more accurate baud rate setting and peripheral clock are required. See “Asynchronous Data Reception” on page 268 for more details. 21.3.4 Synchronous Clock Operation When synchronous mode is used, the XCK pin controls whether the transmission clock is input (slave mode) or output (master mode). The corresponding port pin must be set to output for master mode or to input for slave mode. The normal port operation of the XCK pin will be overridden. The dependency between the clock edges and data sampling or data change is the same. Data input (on RxD) is sampled at the XCK clock edge which is opposite the edge where data output (TxD) is changed. BSCALE BSEL BSCALE BSEL 1 0 → 0 1 2 0 → 0 3 3 0 → 0 7 4 0 → 0 15 5 0 → 0 31 6 0 → 0 63 7 0 → 0 127 f XCK f PER 4 < ------------- XMEGA B [MANUAL] 265 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 21-3. Synchronous mode XCK timing. Using the inverted I/O (INVEN) setting for the corresponding XCK port pin, the XCK clock edges used for data sampling and data change can be selected. If inverted I/O is disabled (INVEN=0), data will be changed at the rising XCK clock edge and sampled at the falling XCK clock edge. If inverted I/O is enabled (INVEN=1), data will be changed at the falling XCK clock edge and sampled at the rising XCK clock edge. For more details, see “I/O Ports” on page 123. 21.3.5 Master SPI Mode Clock Generation For master SPI mode operation, only internal clock generation is supported. This is identical to the USART synchronous master mode, and the baud rate or BSEL setting is calculated using the same equations (see Table 21-1 on page 263). There are four combinations of the SPI clock (SCK) phase and polarity with respect to the serial data, and these are determined by the clock phase (UCPHA) control bit and the inverted I/O pin (INVEN) settings. The data transfer timing diagrams are shown in Figure 21-4 on page 266. Data bits are shifted out and latched in on opposite edges of the XCK signal, ensuring sufficient time for data signals to stabilize. The UCPHA and INVEN settings are summarized in Table 21- 2. Changing the setting of any of these bits during transmission will corrupt both the receiver and transmitter Table 21-2. INVEN and UCPHA functionality. The leading edge is the first clock edge of a clock cycle. The trailing edge is the last clock edge of a clock cycle.

UCPHA and INVEN data transfer timing diagrams. 21.4 Frame Formats Data transfer is frame based, where a serial frame consists of one character of data bits with synchronization bits (start and stop bits) and an optional parity bit for error checking. Note that this does not apply to master SPI operation (See “SPI Frame Formats” on page 267). The USART accepts all combinations of the following as valid frame formats: z 1 start bit z 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 data bits z no, even, or odd parity bit z 1 or 2 stop bits A frame starts with the start bit, followed by all the data bits (least-significant bit first and most-significant bit last). If enabled, the parity bit is inserted after the data bits, before the first stop bit. One frame can be directly followed by a start bit and a new frame, or the communication line can return to the idle (high) state. Figure 21-5 on page 266 illustrates the possible combinations of frame formats. Bits inside brackets are optional. Figure 21-5. Frame formats. 21.4.1 Parity Bit Calculation Even or odd parity can be selected for error checking. If even parity is selected, the parity bit is set to one if the number of logical one data bits is odd (making the total number of ones even). If odd parity is selected, the parity bit is set to one if the number of logical one data bits is even (making the total number of ones odd).

The USART in master SPI mode has two selectable frame formats: z 8-bit data, msb first z 8-bit data, lsb first After a complete, 8-bit frame is transmitted, a new frame can directly follow it, or the communication line can return to the idle (high) state. 21.5 USART Initialization USART initialization should use the following sequence: 1. Set the TxD pin value high, and optionally set the XCK pin low. 2. Set the TxD and optionally the XCK pin as output. 3. Set the baud rate and frame format. 4. Set the mode of operation (enables XCK pin output in synchronous mode). 5. Enable the transmitter or the receiver, depending on the usage. For interrupt-driven USART operation, global interrupts should be disabled during the initialization. Before doing a re-initialization with a changed baud rate or frame format, be sure that there are no ongoing transmissions while the registers are changed. 21.6 Data Transmission - The USART Transmitter When the transmitter has been enabled, the normal port operation of the TxD pin is overridden by the USART and given the function as the transmitter's serial output. The direction of the pin must be set as output using the direction register for the corresponding port. For details on port pin control and output configuration, refer to “I/O Ports” on page 123. 21.6.1 Sending Frames A data transmission is initiated by loading the transmit buffer (DATA) with the data to be sent. The data in the transmit buffer are moved to the shift register when the shift register is empty and ready to send a new frame. The shift register is loaded if it is in idle state (no ongoing transmission) or immediately after the last stop bit of the previous frame is transmitted. When the shift register is loaded with data, it will transfer one complete frame. The transmit complete interrupt flag (TXCIF) is set and the optional interrupt is generated when the entire frame in the shift register has been shifted out and there are no new data present in the transmit buffer. The transmit data register (DATA) can only be written when the data register empty flag (DREIF) is set, indicating that the register is empty and ready for new data. When using frames with fewer than eight bits, the most-significant bits written to DATA are ignored. If 9-bit characters are used, the ninth bit must be written to the TXB8 bit before the low byte of the character is written to DATA. 21.6.2 Disabling the Transmitter A disabling of the transmitter will not become effective until ongoing and pending transmissions are completed; i.e., when the transmit shift register and transmit buffer register do not contain data to be transmitted. When the transmitter is disabled, it will no longer override the TxDn pin, and the pin direction is set as input automatically by hardware, even if it was configured as output by the user. 21.7 Data Reception - The USART Receiver When the receiver is enabled, the RxD pin functions as the receiver's serial input. The direction of the pin must be set as input, which is the default pin setting. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 268 8291C–AVR–09/2014 21.7.1 Receiving Frames The receiver starts data reception when it detects a valid start bit. Each bit that follows the start bit will be sampled at the baud rate or XCK clock and shifted into the receive shift register until the first stop bit of a frame is received. A second stop bit will be ignored by the receiver. When the first stop bit is received and a complete serial frame is present in the receive shift register, the contents of the shift register will be moved into the receive buffer. The receive complete interrupt flag (RXCIF) is set, and the optional interrupt is generated. The receiver buffer can be read by reading the data register (DATA) location. DATA should not be read unless the receive complete interrupt flag is set. When using frames with fewer than eight bits, the unused most-significant bits are read as zero. If 9-bit characters are used, the ninth bit must be read from the RXB8 bit before the low byte of the character is read from DATA. 21.7.2 Receiver Error Flags The USART receiver has three error flags. The frame error (FERR), buffer overflow (BUFOVF) and parity error (PERR) flags are accessible from the status register. The error flags are located in the receive FIFO buffer together with their corresponding frame. Due to the buffering of the error flags, the status register must be read before the receive buffer (DATA), since reading the DATA location changes the FIFO buffer. 21.7.3 Parity Checker When enabled, the parity checker calculates the parity of the data bits in incoming frames and compares the result with the parity bit of the corresponding frame. If a parity error is detected, the parity error flag is set. 21.7.4 Disabling the Receiver A disabling of the receiver will be immediate. The receiver buffer will be flushed, and data from ongoing receptions will be lost. 21.7.5 Flushing the Receive Buffer If the receive buffer has to be flushed during normal operation, read the DATA location until the receive complete interrupt flag is cleared. 21.8 Asynchronous Data Reception The USART includes a clock recovery and a data recovery unit for handling asynchronous data reception. The clock recovery unit is used for synchronizing the incoming asynchronous serial frames at the RxD pin to the internally generated baud rate clock. It samples and low-pass filters each incoming bit, thereby improving the noise immunity of the receiver. The asynchronous reception operational range depends on the accuracy of the internal baud rate clock, the rate of the incoming frames, and the frame size in number of bits. 21.8.1 Asynchronous Clock Recovery The clock recovery unit synchronizes the internal clock to the incoming serial frames. Figure 21-6 on page 269 illustrates the sampling process for the start bit of an incoming frame. The sample rate is 16 times the baud rate for normal mode, and eight times the baud rate for double speed mode. The horizontal arrows illustrate the synchronization variation due to the sampling process. Note the larger time variation when using the double speed mode of operation. Samples denoted as zero are samples done when the RxD line is idle; i.e., when there is no communication activity. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 269 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 21-6. Start bit sampling. When the clock recovery logic detects a high (idle) to low (start) transition on the RxD line, the start bit detection sequence is initiated. Sample 1 denotes the first zero-sample, as shown in the figure. The clock recovery logic then uses samples 8, 9, and 10 for normal mode and samples 4, 5, and 6 for double speed mode to decide if a valid start bit is received. If two or three samples have a low level, the start bit is accepted. The clock recovery unit is synchronized, and the data recovery can begin. If two or three samples have a high level, the start bit is rejected as a noise spike, and the receiver looks for the next high-to-low transition. The process is repeated for each start bit. 21.8.2 Asynchronous Data Recovery The data recovery unit uses sixteen samples in normal mode and eight samples in double speed mode for each bit. Figure 21-7 on page 269 shows the sampling process of data and parity bits. Figure 21-7. Sampling of data and parity bits. As for start bit detection, an identical majority voting technique is used on the three center samples for deciding of the logic level of the received bit. The process is repeated for each bit until a complete frame is received. It includes the first stop bit, but excludes additional ones. If the sampled stop bit is a 0 value, the frame error (FERR) flag will be set. Figure 21-8 on page 269 shows the sampling of the stop bit in relation to the earliest possible beginning of the next frame's start bit. Figure 21-8. Stop bit and next start bit sampling. A new high-to-low transition indicating the start bit of a new frame can come right after the last of the bits used for majority voting. For normal speed mode, the first low level sample can be at the point marked (A) in Stop Bit Sampling and Next Start Bit Sampling. For double speed mode, the first low level must be delayed to point (B). Point (C) marks a stop bit of full length at nominal baud rate. The early start bit detection influences the operational range of the receiver. 1234567 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 1 2 IDLE START 0 0 BIT 0 3 0 123 4 5 678 1 2 RxD Sample (U2X = 0) Sample (U2X = 1) 1234567 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 1 BIT n 123 4 5 678 1 RxD Sample (CLK2X = 0) Sample (CLK2X = 1) 1234567 8 9 10 0/1 0/1 0/1 STOP 1 123 4 5 6 0/1 RxD Sample (CLK2X = 0) Sample (CLK2X = 1) (A) (B) (C) XMEGA B [MANUAL] 270 8291C–AVR–09/2014 21.8.3 Asynchronous Operational Range The operational range of the receiver is dependent on the mismatch between the received bit rate and the internally generated baud rate. If an external transmitter is sending using bit rates that are too fast or too slow, or if the internally generated baud rate of the receiver does not match the external source’s base frequency, the receiver will not be able to synchronize the frames to the start bit. The following equations can be used to calculate the ratio of the incoming data rate and internal receiver baud rate. Table 21-3 and Table 21-4 on page 270 list the maximum receiver baud rate error that can be tolerated. Normal speed mode has higher tolerance of baud rate variations. Table 21-3. Recommended maximum receiver baud rate error for normal speed mode. Table 21-4. Recommended maximum receiver baud rate error for double speed mode. D Sum of character size and parity size (D = 5 to 10 bits). S Samples per bit. S = 16 for normal speed mode and S = 8 for double speed mode. SF First sample number used for majority voting.

Rslow The ratio of the slowest incoming data rate that can be accepted in relation to the receiver baud rate. Rfast The ratio of the fastest incoming data rate that can be accepted in relation to the receiver baud rate.

Each bit is sampled sixteen times, but only the three middle samples are of importance. The total number of samples for one frame is also relatively high. Given a 1-start, 8-data, no-parity, and 1-stop-bit frame format, and assuming that normal speed mode is used, the total number of samples for a frame is (1+8+1)×16 or 160. As stated earlier, the UART can tolerate some variation in clock cycles for each sample. The critical factor is the time from the falling edge of the start bit (i.e., the clock synchronization) until the last bit's (i.e., the first stop bit’s) value is recovered. Standard baud rate generators have the unwanted property of having large frequency steps between high baud rate settings. The worst case is found between the BSEL values 0x000 and 0x001. Going from a BSEL value of 0x000, which has a 10-bit frame of 160 clock cycles, to a BSEL value of 0x001, with 320 clock cycles, gives a 50% change in frequency. Ideally, the step size should be small even between the fastest baud rates. This is where the advantage of the fractional baud rate generator emerges. In principle, the fractional baud rate generator works by doing uneven counting and then distributing the error evenly over the entire frame. A typical count sequence for an ordinary baud rate generator is: 2, 1, 0, 2, 1, 0, 2, 1, 0, 2, … which has an even period time. A baud rate clock ticks each time the counter reaches zero, and a sample of the signal received on RxD is taken for every 16th baud rate clock tick. For the fractional baud rate generator, the count sequence can have an uneven period: 2, 1, 0, 2, 1-1, 0, 2, 1, 0, 2, 1-1, 0,... In this example, an extra cycle is added to every second baud clock. This gives a baud rate clock tick jitter, but the average period has been increased by a fraction of 0.5 clock cycles. Figure 21-9 on page 272 shows an example of how BSEL and BSCALE can be used to achieve baud rates in between what is possible by just changing BSEL. The impact of fractional baud rate generation is that the step size between baud rate settings has been reduced. Given a scale factor of -1, the worst-case step then becomes from 160 to 240 clock cycles per 10-bit frame, compared to the previous step of from 160 to 320. A higher negative scale factor gives even finer granularity. There is a limit, however, to how high the scale factor can be. The value 2|BSCALE| must be at most half the minimum number of clock cycles of a frame. For instance, for 10-bit frames, the minimum number of clock cycles is 160. This means that the highest applicable scale factor is -6 (2I-6I = 64 < (160/2) = 80). For higher BSEL settings, the scale factor can be increased. Table 21-5 on page 272 shows BSEL and BSCALE settings when using the internal oscillators to generate the most commonly used baud rates for asynchronous operation and how reducing the BSCALE can be used to reduce the baud rate error even further. 8 96.00 103.90 +3.90/-4.00 ± 1.5 9 96.39 103.53 +3.53/-3.61 ± 1.5 10 96.70 103.23 +3.23/-3.30 ± 1.0 D #(Data + Parity Bit) Rslow [%] Rfast [%] Max Total Error [%] Recommended Max Receiver Error [%] XMEGA B [MANUAL] 272 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 21-9.

The receiver can optionally be enabled to serve as the serial input. The XCK pin will be used as the transfer clock. As for the USART, a data transfer is initiated by writing to the DATA register. This is the case for both sending and receiving data, since the transmitter controls the transfer clock. The data written to DATA are moved from the transmit buffer to the shift register when the shift register is ready to send a new frame. The transmitter and receiver interrupt flags and corresponding USART interrupts used in master SPI mode are identical in function to their use in normal USART operation. The receiver error status flags are not in use and are always read as zero. Disabling of the USART transmitter or receiver in master SPI mode is identical to their disabling in normal USART operation. 21.11 USART SPI vs. SPI The USART in master SPI mode is fully compatible with the standalone SPI module in that: z Timing diagrams are the same z UCPHA bit functionality is identical to that of the SPI CPHA bit z UDORD bit functionality is identical to that of the SPI DORD bit When the USART is set in master SPI mode, configuration and use are in some cases different from those of the standalone SPI module.

Table 21-6. Comparison of USART in master SPI mode and SPI pins. 21.12 Multiprocessor Communication Mode The multiprocessor communication mode effectively reduces the number of incoming frames that have to be handled by the receiver in a system with multiple microcontrollers communicating via the same serial bus. In this mode, a dedicated bit in the frames is used to indicate whether the frame is an address or data frame type. If the receiver is set up to receive frames that contain five to eight data bits, the first stop bit is used to indicate the frame type. If the receiver is set up for frames with nine data bits, the ninth bit is used. When the frame type bit is one, the frame contains an address. When the frame type bit is zero, the frame is a data frame. If 5-bit to 8-bit character frames are used, the transmitter must be set to use two stop bits, since the first stop bit is used for indicating the frame type. If a particular slave MCU has been addressed, it will receive the following data frames as usual, while the other slave MCUs will ignore the frames until another address frame is received. 21.12.1 Using Multiprocessor Communication Mode The following procedure should be used to exchange data in multiprocessor communication mode (MPCM): 1. All slave MCUs are in multiprocessor communication mode. 2. The master MCU sends an address frame, and all slaves receive and read this frame. 3. Each slave MCU determines if it has been selected. 4. The addressed MCU will disable MPCM and receive all data frames. The other slave MCUs will ignore the data frames. 5. When the addressed MCU has received the last data frame, it must enable MPCM again and wait for a new address frame from the master. The process then repeats from step 2. Using any of the 5-bit to 8-bit character frame formats is impractical, as the receiver must change between using n and n+1 character frame formats. This makes full-duplex operation difficult, since the transmitter and receiver must use the same character size setting.

This enables IrDA 1.4 compliant modulation and demodulation for baud rates up to 115.2kbps. When IRCOM mode is enabled, double speed mode cannot be used for the USART. For devices with more than one USART, IRCOM mode can be enabled for only one USART at a time. For details, refer to “IRCOM - IR Communication Module” on page 282. 21.14 DMA Support DMA support is available on UART, USRT, and master SPI mode peripherals. For details on different USART DMA transfer triggers, refer to “Transfer Triggers” on page 49. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 276 8291C–AVR–09/2014 21.15 Register Description 21.15.1 DATA – Data register The USART transmit data buffer register (TXB) and USART receive data buffer register (RXB) share the same I/O address and is referred to as USART data register (DATA). The TXB register is the destination for data written to the DATA register location. Reading the DATA register location returns the contents of the RXB register. For 5-bit, 6-bit, or 7-bit characters, the upper unused bits will be ignored by the transmitter and set to zero by the receiver. The transmit buffer can be written only when DREIF in the STATUS register is set. Data written to the DATA register when DREIF is not set will be ignored by the USART transmitter. When data are written to the transmit buffer and the transmitter is enabled, the transmitter will load the data into the transmit shift register when the shift register is empty. The data are then transmitted on the TxD pin. The receive buffer consists of a two-level FIFO. Always read STATUS before DATA in order to get the correct status of the receive buffer. 21.15.2 STATUS – Status register z Bit 7 – RXCIF: Receive Complete Interrupt Flag This flag is set when there are unread data in the receive buffer and cleared when the receive buffer is empty (i.e., does not contain any unread data). When the receiver is disabled, the receive buffer will be flushed, and consequently RXCIF will become zero. When interrupt-driven data reception is used, the receive complete interrupt routine must read the received data from DATA in order to clear RXCIF. If not, a new interrupt will occur directly after the return from the current interrupt. This flag can also be cleared by writing a one to its bit location. z Bit 6 – TXCIF: Transmit Complete Interrupt Flag This flag is set when the entire frame in the transmit shift register has been shifted out and there are no new data in the transmit buffer (DATA). TXCIF is automatically cleared when the transmit complete interrupt vector is executed. The flag can also be cleared by writing a one to its bit location. z Bit 5 – DREIF: Data Register Empty Flag This flag indicates whether the transmit buffer (DATA) is ready to receive new data. The flag is one when the transmit buffer is empty and zero when the transmit buffer contains data to be transmitted that has not yet been moved into the shift register. DREIF is set after a reset to indicate that the transmitter is ready. Always write this bit to zero when writing the STATUS register. DREIF is cleared by writing DATA. When interrupt-driven data transmission is used, the data register empty interrupt routine must either write new data to DATA in order to clear DREIF or disable the data register empty interrupt. If not, a new interrupt will occur directly after the return from the current interrupt.

The bit is set if the received character had a frame error, i.e., the first stop bit was zero, and cleared when the stop bit of the received data is one. This bit is valid until the receive buffer (DATA) is read. FERR is not affected by setting the number of stop bits used, as it always uses only the first stop bit. Always write this bit location to zero when writing the STATUS register. This flag is not used in master SPI mode operation. z Bit 3 – BUFOVF: Buffer Overflow This flag indicates data loss due to a receiver buffer full condition. This flag is set if a buffer overflow condition is detected. A buffer overflow occurs when the receive buffer is full (two characters) with a new character waiting in the receive shift register and a new start bit is detected. This flag is valid until the receive buffer (DATA) is read. Always write this bit location to zero when writing the STATUS register. This flag is not used in master SPI mode operation. z Bit 2 – PERR: Parity Error If parity checking is enabled and the next character in the receive buffer has a parity error, this flag is set. If parity check is not enabled, this flag will always be read as zero. This bit is valid until the receive buffer (DATA) is read. Always write this bit location to zero when writing the STATUS register. For details on parity calculation, refer to “Parity Bit Calculation” on page 266. This flag is not used in master SPI mode operation. z Bit 1 – Reserved This bit is unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write this bit to zero when this register is written. z Bit 0 – RXB8: Receive Bit 8 RXB8 is the ninth data bit of the received character when operating with serial frames with nine data bits. When used, this bit must be read before reading the low bits from DATA. This bit is unused in master SPI mode operation. 21.15.3 CTRLA – Control register A z Bit 7:6 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 5:4 – RXCINTLVL[1:0]: Receive Complete Interrupt Level These bits enable the receive complete interrupt and select the interrupt level, as described in “Interrupts and Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller” on page 115. The enabled interrupt will be triggered when the RXCIF flag in the STATUS register is set. z Bit 3:2 – TXCINTLVL[1:0]: Transmit Complete Interrupt Level These bits enable the transmit complete interrupt and select the interrupt level, as described in “Interrupts and Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller” on page 115. The enabled interrupt will be triggered when the TXCIF flag in the STATUS register is set. z Bit 1:0 – DREINTLVL[1:0]: Data Register Empty Interrupt Level These bits enable the data register empty interrupt and select the interrupt level, as described in “Interrupts and Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller” on page 115. The enabled interrupt will be triggered when the DREIF flag in the STATUS register is set.

For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 4 – RXEN: Receiver Enable Setting this bit enables the USART receiver. The receiver will override normal port operation for the RxD pin, when enabled. Disabling the receiver will flush the receive buffer, invalidating the FERR, BUFOVF, and PERR flags. z Bit 3 – TXEN: Transmitter Enable Setting this bit enables the USART transmitter. The transmitter will override normal port operation for the TxD pin, when enabled. Disabling the transmitter (writing TXEN to zero) will not become effective until ongoing and pending transmissions are completed; i.e., when the transmit shift register and transmit buffer register do not contain data to be transmitted. When disabled, the transmitter will no longer override the TxD port. z Bit 2 – CLK2X: Double Transmission Speed Setting this bit will reduce the divisor of the baud rate divider from16 to 8, effectively doubling the transfer rate for asynchronous communication modes. For synchronous operation, this bit has no effect and should always be written to zero. This bit must be zero when the USART communication mode is configured to IRCOM. This bit is unused in master SPI mode operation. z Bit 1 – MPCM: Multiprocessor Communication Mode This bit enables the multiprocessor communication mode. When the MPCM bit is written to one, the USART receiver ignores all the incoming frames that do not contain address information. The transmitter is unaffected by the MPCM setting. For more detailed information, see “Multiprocessor Communication Mode” on page 274. This bit is unused in master SPI mode operation. z Bit 0 – TXB8: Transmit Bit 8 TXB8 is the ninth data bit in the character to be transmitted when operating with serial frames with nine data bits. When used, this bit must be written before writing the low bits to DATA. This bit is unused in master SPI mode operation. 21.15.5 CTRLC – Control register C Note: 1.

When enabled, the transmitter will automatically generate and send the parity of the transmitted data bits within each frame. The receiver will generate a parity value for the incoming data and compare it to the PMODE setting, and if a mismatch is detected, the PERR flag in STATUS will be set. These bits are unused in master SPI mode operation. Table 21-8.

When written to zero, the msb of the data word is transmitted first. The receiver and transmitter use the same setting. Changing the setting of UDORD will corrupt all ongoing communication for both receiver and transmitter. z Bit 1 – UCPHA: Clock Phase This bit is only for master SPI mode, and the bit determine whether data are sampled on the leading (first) edge or tailing (last) edge of XCKn. Refer to the “Master SPI Mode Clock Generation” on page 265 for details. 21.15.6 BAUDCTRLA – Baud Rate register A z Bit 7:0 – BSEL[7:0]: Baud Rate bits These are the lower 8 bits of the 12-bit BSEL value used for USART baud rate setting. BAUDCTRLB contains the four most-significant bits. Ongoing transmissions by the transmitter and receiver will be corrupted if the baud rate is changed. Writing BSEL will trigger an immediate update of the baud rate prescaler. See the equations in Table 21-1 on page 263. 21.15.7 BAUDCTRLB – Baud Rate register B z Bit 7:4 – BSCALE[3:0]: Baud Rate Scale factor These bits select the baud rate generator scale factor. The scale factor is given in two's complement form from -7 (0b1001) to +7 (0b0111). The -8 (0b1000) setting is reserved. See the equations in Table 21-1 on page 263. z Bit 3:0 – BSEL[11:8]: Baud Rate bits These are the upper 4 bits of the 12-bit value used for USART baud rate setting.

IRCOM - IR Communication Module 22.1 Features z Pulse modulation/demodulation for infrared communication z IrDA compatible for baud rates up to 115.2kbps z Selectable pulse modulation scheme z 3/16 of the baud rate period z Fixed pulse period, 8-bit programmable z Pulse modulation disabled z Built-in filtering z Can be connected to and used by any USART 22.2 Overview XMEGA devices contain an infrared communication module (IRCOM) that is IrDA compatible for baud rates up to 115.2kbps. It can be connected to any USART to enable infrared pulse encoding/decoding for that USART. Figure 22-1. IRCOM connection to USARTs and associated port pins. The IRCOM is automatically enabled when a USART is set in IRCOM mode. The signals between the USART and the RX/TX pins are then routed through the module as shown in Figure 22-1 on page 282. The data on the TX/RX pins are the inverted value of the transmitted/received infrared pulse. It is also possible to select an event channel from the event system as input for the IRCOM receiver. This will disable the RX input from the USART pin. For transmission, three pulse modulation schemes are available: z 3/16 of the baud rate period z Fixed programmable pulse time based on the peripheral clock frequency z Pulse modulation disabled IRCOM Pulse Decoding DIF Event System RXDxn TXDxn USARTxn ....

TXD... decoded TXD events XMEGA B [MANUAL] 283 8291C–AVR–09/2014 For reception, a fixed programmable minimum high-level pulse width for the pulse to be decoded as a logical 0 is used. Shorter pulses will then be discarded, and the bit will be decoded to logical 1 as if no pulse was received. The module can only be used in combination with one USART at a time. Thus, IRCOM mode must not be set for more than one USART at a time. This must be ensured in the user software. 22.2.1 Event System Filtering The event system can be used as the receiver input. This enables IRCOM or USART input from I/O pins or sources other than the corresponding RX pin. If event system input is enabled, input from the USART's RX pin is automatically disabled. The event system has a digital input filter (DIF) on the event channels that can be used for filtering. Refer to “Event System” on page 63” for details on using the event system. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 284 8291C–AVR–09/2014 22.3 Registers Description 22.3.1 TXPLCTRL – Transmitter Pulse Length Control Register z Bit 7:0 – TXPLCTRL[7:0]: Transmitter Pulse Length Control This 8-bit value sets the pulse modulation scheme for the transmitter. Setting this register will have no effect if IRCOM mode is not selected by a USART. By leaving this register value to zero, 3/16 of the baud rate period pulse modulation is used. Setting this value from 1 to 254 will give a fixed pulse length coding. The 8-bit value sets the number of system clock periods for the pulse. The start of the pulse will be synchronized with the rising edge of the baud rate clock. Setting the value to 255 (0xFF) will disable pulse coding, letting the RX and TX signals pass through the IRCOM module unaltered. This enables other features through the IRCOM module, such as half-duplex USART, loop-back testing, and USART RX input from an event channel. TXPCTRL must be configured before the USART transmitter is enabled (TXEN). 22.3.2 RXPLCTRL – Receiver Pulse Length Control Register z Bit 7:0 – RXPLCTRL[7:0]: Receiver Pulse Length Control This 8-bit value sets the filter coefficient for the IRCOM transceiver. Setting this register will have no effect if IRCOM mode is not selected by a USART. By leaving this register value at zero, filtering is disabled. Setting this value between 1 and 255 will enable filtering, where x+1 equal samples are required for the pulse to be accepted. RXPCTRL must be configured before the USART receiver is enabled (RXEN). 22.3.3 CTRL – Control Register z Bit 7:4 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 3:0 – EVSEL [3:0]: Event Channel Selection These bits select the event channel source for the IRCOM receiver according to Table 22-1.

AES and DES Crypto Engines 23.1 Features z Data Encryption Standard (DES) CPU instruction z Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) crypto module z DES Instruction z Encryption and decryption z DES supported z Encryption/decryption in 16 CPU clock cycles per 8-byte block z AES crypto module z Encryption and decryption z Supports 128-bit keys z Supports XOR data load mode to the state memory z Encryption/decryption in 375 clock cycles per 16-byte block 23.2 Overview The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Data Encryption Standard (DES) are two commonly used standards for cryptography. These are supported through an AES peripheral module and a DES CPU instruction, and the communication interfaces and the CPU can use these for fast, encrypted communication and secure data storage. DES is supported by an instruction in the AVR CPU. The 8-byte key and 8-byte data blocks must be loaded into the register file, and then the DES instruction must be executed 16 times to encrypt/decrypt the data block. The AES crypto module encrypts and decrypts 128-bit data blocks with the use of a 128-bit key. The key and data must be loaded into the key and state memory in the module before encryption/decryption is started. It takes 375 peripheral clock cycles before the encryption/decryption is done. The encrypted/encrypted data can then be read out, and an optional interrupt can be generated. The AES crypto module also has DMA support with transfer triggers when encryption/decryption is done and optional auto-start of encryption/decryption when the state memory is fully loaded. 23.3 DES Instruction The DES instruction is a single cycle instruction. In order to decrypt or encrypt a 64-bit (8-byte) data block, the instruction has to be executed 16 times. The data and key blocks must be loaded into the register file before encryption/decryption is started. The 64-bit data block (plaintext or ciphertext) is placed in registers R0-R7, where the LSB of data is placed in R0 and the MSB of data is placed in R7. The full 64-bit key (including parity bits) is placed in registers R8-R15, with the LSB of the key in R8 and the MSB of the key in R15. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 287 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 23-1. Register file usage during DES encryption/decryption. Executing one DES instruction performs one round in the DES algorithm. Sixteen rounds must be executed in increasing order to form the correct DES ciphertext or plaintext. Intermediate results are stored in the register file (R0-R15) after each DES instruction. After sixteen rounds, the key is located in R8-R16 and the encrypted/decrypted ciphertext/plaintext is located in R0-R7. The instruction's operand (K) determines which round is executed, and the half carry flag (H) in the CPU status register determines whether encryption or decryption is performed. If the half carry flag is set, decryption is performed, and if the flag is cleared, encryption is performed. For more details on the DES instruction, refer to the AVR instruction set manual. 23.4 AES Crypto Module The AES crypto module performs encryption and decryption according to the Advanced Encryption Standard (FIPS-197). The 128-bit key block and 128-bit data block (plaintext or ciphertext) must be loaded into the key and state memories in the AES crypto module. This is done by writing the AES KEY register and STATE register sequentially with 16 bytes. It is software selectable whether the module should perform encryption or decryption. It is also possible to enable XOR mode, where all new data loaded to the state key is XORed with the current data in the state memory. The AES module uses 375 clock cycles before the encrypted/decrypted plaintext/ciphertext is available for readout in the state memory. The following setup and use procedure is recommended: 1. Enable the AES interrupt (optional). 2. Select the AES direction to encryption or decryption. 3. Load the key data block into the AES key memory. 4. Load the data block into the AES state memory. 5. Start the encryption/decryption operation. If more than one block is to be encrypted or decrypted, repeat the procedure from step 3. When the encryption/decryption procedure is complete, the AES interrupt flag is set and an optional interrupt is generated. Register File R0 R1 R2 R3 R4 R5 R6 R7 R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15 R16 ...

Each memory has two 4-bit address pointers used to address the memory for read and write, respectively. The initial value of the pointers is zero. After a read or write operation to the STATE or KEY register, the appropriate pointer is automatically incremented. Accessing (read or write) the control register (CTRL) will reset all pointers to zero. A pointer overflow (a sequential read or write done more than 16 times) will also set the affected pointer to zero. The pointers are not accessible from software. Read and write memory pointers are both incremented during write operations in XOR mode. Access to the KEY and STATE registers is possible only when encryption/decryption is not in progress. Figure 23-2. The state memory with pointers and register. The state memory contains the AES state throughout the encryption/decryption process. The initial value of the state is the initial data (i.e., plaintext in the encryption mode, and ciphertext in the decryption mode). The last value of the state is the encrypted/decrypted data. Figure 23-3. The key memory with pointers and register. In the AES crypto module, the following definition of the key is used: z In encryption mode, the key is the one defined in the AES standard. 4-bit state write address pointer 1 - 14 15 STATE 0 4-bit state read address pointer Reset pointer Reset pointer reset or access to AES Control reset or access to AES Control STATE[read pointer] xor XOR I/O Data Bus 4-bit key write address pointer 1 - 14 15 KEY 0 4-bit key read address pointer Reset pointer Reset pointer reset or access to CTRL reset or access to CTRL XMEGA B [MANUAL] 289 8291C–AVR–09/2014 z In decryption mode, the key is the last subkey of the expanded key defined in the AES standard. In decryption mode, the key expansion procedure must be executed by software before operation with the AES crypto module so that the last subkey is ready to be loaded through the KEY register. Alternatively, this procedure can be run in hardware by using the AES crypto module to process a dummy data block in encryption mode using the same key. After the end of the encryption, reading from the key memory allows the last subkey to be obtained; i.e., get the result of the key expansion procedure. Table 23-1 shows the results of reading the key, depending on the mode (encryption or decryption) and status of the AES crypto module. Table 23-1. The result of reading the key memory at different stages. 23.4.2 DMA Support The AES module can trigger a DMA transfer when the encryption/decryption procedure is complete. For more details on DMA transfer triggers, refer to “Transfer Triggers” on page 49. Encryption Decryption Before data processing After data processing Before data processing After Data Processing Same key as loaded The last subkey generated from the loaded key Same key as loaded The initial key generated from the last loaded subkey XMEGA B [MANUAL] 290 8291C–AVR–09/2014 23.5 Register Description – AES 23.5.1 CTRL – Control register z Bit 7 – START: Start/Run Setting this bit starts the encryption/decryption procedure, and this bit remains set while the encryption/decryption is ongoing. Writing this bit to zero will stop/abort any ongoing encryption/decryption process. This bit is automatically cleared if the SRIF or the ERROR flags in STATUS are set. z Bit 6 – AUTO: Auto Start Trigger Setting this bit enables the auto-start mode. In auto-start mode, the START bit will trigger automatically and start the encryption/decryption when all of the following conditions are met: z The AUTO bit is set before the state memory is loaded z All memory pointers (state read/write and key read/write) are zero z State memory is fully loaded If all of these conditions are not met, the encryption/decryption will be started with an incorrect key. z Bit 5 – RESET: Software Reset Setting this bit will reset the AES crypto module to its initial status on the next positive edge of the peripheral clock. All registers, pointers, and memories in the module are set to their initial value. When written to one, the bit stays high for one clock cycle before it is reset to zero by hardware. z Bit 4 – DECRYPT: Decryption / Direction This bit sets the direction for the AES crypto module. Writing this bit to zero will set the module in encryption mode. Writing one to this bit sets the module in decryption mode. z Bit 3 – Reserved This bit is unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write this bit to zero when this register is written. z Bit 2 – XOR: State XOR Load Enable Setting this bit enables a XOR data load to the state memory. When this bit is set, the data loaded to the state memory are bitwise XORed with the data currently in the state memory. Writing this bit to zero disables XOR load mode, and new data written to the state memory will overwrite the current data. z Bit 1:0 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written.

The flag is set in the following cases: z Setting START in the control register while the state memory and/or key memory are not fully loaded or read. This error occurs when the total number of read/write operations from/to the STATE and KEY registers is not a multiple of 16 before an AES start. z Accessing (read or write) the control register while the START bit is one. This flag can be cleared by software by writing one to its bit location. z Bit 6:1 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 0 – SRIF: State Ready Interrupt flag This flag is the interrupt/DMA request flag, and is set when the encryption/decryption procedure is completed and the state memory contains valid data. As long as the flag is zero, this indicates that there is no valid encrypted/decrypted data in the state memory. The flag is cleared by hardware when a read access is made to the state memory (the first byte is read). Alternatively, the bit can be cleared by writing a one to its bit location. 23.5.3 STATE – AES State register The STATE register is used to access the state memory. Before encryption/decryption can take place, the state memory must be written sequentially, byte-by-byte, through the STATE register. After encryption/decryption is done, the ciphertext/plaintext can be read sequentially, byte-by-byte, through the STATE register. Loading the initial data to the STATE register should be done after setting the appropriate AES mode and direction. This register can not be accessed during encryption/decryption. 23.5.4 KEY – Key register The KEY register is used to access the key memory. Before encryption/decryption can take place, the key memory must be written sequentially, byte-by-byte, through the KEY register. After encryption/decryption is done, the last subkey can be read sequentially, byte-by-byte, through the KEY register. Loading the initial data to the KEY register should be done after setting the appropriate AES mode and direction.

CRC – Cyclic Redundancy Check Generator 24.1 Features z Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) generation and checking for z Communication data z Program or data in flash memory z Data in SRAM and I/O memory space z Integrated with flash memory, DMA controller and CPU z Continuous CRC on data going through a DMA channel z Automatic CRC of the complete or a selectable range of the flash memory z CPU can load data to the CRC generator through the I/O interface z CRC polynomial software selectable to z CRC-16 (CRC-CCITT) z CRC-32 (IEEE 802.3) z Zero remainder detection 24.2 Overview A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is an error detection technique test algorithm used to find accidental errors in data, and it is commonly used to determine the correctness of a data transmission, and data present in the data and program memories. A CRC takes a data stream or a block of data as input and generates a 16- or 32-bit output that can be appended to the data and used as a checksum. When the same data are later received or read, the device or application repeats the calculation. If the new CRC result does not match the one calculated earlier, the block contains a data error. The application will then detect this and may take a corrective action, such as requesting the data to be sent again or simply not using the incorrect data. Typically, an n-bit CRC applied to a data block of arbitrary length will detect any single error burst not longer than n bits (any single alteration that spans no more than n bits of the data), and will detect the fraction 1-2-n of all longer error bursts. The CRC module in XMEGA devices supports two commonly used CRC polynomials; CRC-16 (CRC-CCITT) and CRC-32 (IEEE 802.3). z CRC-16: z CRC-32: Polynomial: x16+x12+x5 +1 Hex value: 0x1021 Polynomial: x32+x26+x23+x22+x16+x12+x11+x10+x8 +x7 +x5 +x4 +x2 +x+1 Hex value: 0x04C11DB7 XMEGA B [MANUAL] 294 8291C–AVR–09/2014 24.3 Operation The data source for the CRC module must be selected in software as either flash memory, the DMA channels, or the I/O interface. The CRC module then takes data input from the selected source and generates a checksum based on these data. The checksum is available in the CHECKSUM registers in the CRC module. When CRC-32 polynomial is used, the final checksum read is bit reversed and complemented (see Figure 24-1). For the I/O interface or DMA controller, which CRC polynomial is used is software selectable, but the default setting is CRC-16. CRC-32 is automatically used if Flash Memory is selected as the source. The CRC module operates on bytes only. Figure 24-1. CRC generator block diagram. 24.4 CRC on Flash memory A CRC-32 calculation can be performed on the entire flash memory, on only the application section, on only the boot section, or on a software selectable range of the flash memory. Other than selecting the flash as the source, all further control and setup are done from the NVM controller. This means that the NVM controller configures the memory range to perform the CRC on, and the CRC is started using NVM commands. Once completed, the result is available in the checksum registers in the CRC module. For further details on setting up and performing CRC on flash memory, refer to “Memory Programming” on page 375. 24.5 CRC on DMA Data CRC-16 or CRC-32 calculations can be performed on data passing through any DMA channel. Once a DMA channel is selected as the source, the CRC module will continuously generate the CRC on the data passing through the DMA channel. The checksum is available for readout once the DMA transaction is completed or aborted. A CRC can be DATAIN CTRL Flash Memory DMA Controller CRC-16 CRC-32 CHECKSUM bit-reverse + complement 8 16 8 32 Checksum read crc32 XMEGA B [MANUAL] 295 8291C–AVR–09/2014 performed not only on communication data, but also on data in SRAM or I/O memory by passing these data through a DMA channel. If the latter is done, the destination register for the DMA data can be the data input (DATAIN) register in the CRC module. 24.6 CRC using the I/O Interface CRC can be performed on any data by loading them into the CRC module using the CPU and writing the data to the DATAIN register. Using this method, an arbitrary number of bytes can be written to the register by the CPU, and CRC is done continuously for each byte. New data can be written for each cycle. The CRC complete is signaled by writing the BUSY bit in the STATUS register. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 296 8291C–AVR–09/2014 24.7 Register Description 24.7.1 CTRL – Control register z Bit 7:6 – RESET[1:0]: Reset These bits are used to reset the CRC module, and they will always be read as zero. The CRC registers will be reset one peripheral clock cycle after the RESET[1] bit is set Table 24-1. CRC reset. z Bit 5 – CRC32: CRC-32 Enable Setting this bit will enable CRC-32 instead of the default CRC-16. It cannot be changed while the BUSY flag is set. z Bit 4 – Reserved This bit is unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write this bit to zero when this register is written. z Bit 3:0 – SOURCE[3:0]: Input Source These bits select the input source for generating the CRC. The selected source is locked until either the CRC generation is completed or the CRC module is reset. CRC generation complete is generated and signaled from the selected source when used with the DMA controller or flash memory. Table 24-2. CRC source select.

For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 1 – ZERO: Checksum Zero This flag is set if the CHECKSUM is zero when the CRC generation is complete. It is automatically cleared when a new CRC source is selected. When running CRC-32 and appending the checksum at the end of the packet (as little endian), the final checksum should be 0x2144df1c, and not zero. However, if the checksum is complemented before it is appended (as little endian) to the data, the final result in the checksum register will be zero. See the description of CHECKSUM to read out different versions of the CHECKSUM. z Bit 0 – BUSY: Busy This flag is read as one when a source configuration is selected and as long as the source is using the CRC module. If the I/O interface is selected as the source, the flag can be cleared by writing a one this location. If a DMA channel if selected as the source, the flag is cleared when the DMA channel transaction is completed or aborted. If flash memory is selected as the source, the flag is cleared when the CRC generation is completed. 24.7.3 DATAIN – Data Input register z Bit 7:0 – DATAIN[7:0]: Data Input This register is used to store the data for which the CRC checksum is computed. A new CHECKSUM is ready one clock cycle after the DATAIN register is written. 24.7.4 CHECKSUM0 – Checksum register 0 CHECKSUM0, CHECKSUM1, CHECKSUM2, and CHECKSUM3 represent the 16- or 32-bit CHECKSUM value and the generated CRC. The registers are reset to zero by default, but it is possible to write RESET to reset all bits to one. It is possible to write these registers only when the CRC module is disabled. If NVM is selected as the source, reading CHECKSUM will return a zero value until the BUSY flag is cleared. If CRC-32 is selected and the BUSY flag is cleared (i.e., CRC generation is completed or aborted), the bit reversed (bit 31 is swapped with bit 0, bit 30 with bit 1, etc.) and complemented result will be read from CHECKSUM. If CRC-16 is selected or the BUSY flag is set (i.e., CRC generation is ongoing), CHECKSUM will contain the actual content. z Bit 7:0 – CHECKSUM[7:0]: Checksum byte 0 These bits hold byte 0 of the generated CRC.

A segment has two electrodes with liquid crystal between them. These electrodes are the common terminal (COM pin) and the segment terminal (SEG pin). When a voltage above a threshold voltage is applied across the liquid crystal, the segment becomes visible. The voltage must alternate to avoid an electrophoresis effect in the liquid crystal, this effect degrades the display. Hence the voltage waveform across a segment must not have a DC-component. The LCD controller is intended for monochrome passive liquid crystal display (LCD) with up to 4 Common terminals and up to 40 Segments terminals. If the application does not need all the LCD segments available on the XMEGA, up to 16 of the unused LCD pins can be used as general purpose I/O pins. The LCD controller can be clocked by an internal or an external asynchronous 32kHz clock source. This 32kHz oscillator source selection is the same as for the Real Time Counter (RTC). Dedicated Low Power Waveform, Contrast Control, Extended Interrupt Mode, Selectable Frame Frequency and Blink functionality are supported to offload the CPU, reduce interrupts and reduce power consumption. To reduce hardware design complexity, the LCD includes integrated LCD buffers, an integrated power supply voltage and an innovative SWAP mode. Using SWAP mode, the hardware designers have more flexibility during board layout as they can rearrange the pin sequence on Segment and/or Common Terminal Buses. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 300 8291C–AVR–09/2014 25.2.1 Definitions Several terms are used when describing LCD. The definitions in Table 25-1 are used throughout this document. Table 25-1. LCD definitions. Figure 25-1. LCD Typical Connections 25.2.2 LCD Clock Sources The LCD controller can be clocked by an internal or an external asynchronous 32kHz clock source. This 32kHz oscillator source selection is the same as for the Real Time Counter, RTCSRC bit-field in RTC control register (see Table 7-4 on page 87). The clock source must be stable to obtain accurate LCD timing and hence minimize DC voltage offset across LCD segments. 25.2.3 LCD Prescaler The prescaler consists of a 3-bit ripple counter and a 1 to 8-clock divider (see Figure 25-2 on page 301). The PRESC bit selects clk LCD divided by 8 or 16 from the ripple counter. If a finer resolution in frame rate is required, the CLKDIV bit-field can be used to divide the clock further by 1 to 8. Output from the clock divider clk LCD_PS is used as clock source for the LCD timing. 25.2.4 LCD Display Memory The Display Memory is available through I/O registers grouped for each common terminal. A start of new frame triggers an update of the Shadow Display Memory. The content of Display Memory is saved into the Shadow Display Memory. A Display Memory refresh is possible without affecting data that is sent to the panel. LCD A passive display panel with terminals leading directly to a segment Segment (or pixel) A LCD panel active area within the display which can be turned “ON or “OFF”. This can be a single segment of a 7-segment character or a specific symbol (icon). COM Common terminal SEG Segment terminal 1 / Duty 1 / Number of common terminals on an actual LCD display 1 / Bias 1 / Number of voltage levels used driving a LCD display -1 Frame Rate Number of times the LCD segments are energized per second Segment 0 Segment 1 Segment 2 Segment 4 Segment 5 Segment 6 SEG0 Segment 3 Segment 7 Common Terminal 0 COM0 Common Terminal 1 COM1 Segment Terminal 0 SEG1 Segment Terminal 1 SEG2 Segment Terminal 2 SEG3 Segment Terminal 3 XMEGA B [MANUAL] 301 8291C–AVR–09/2014 When a bit in the Display Memory is written to one, the corresponding segment will be energized (“ON”), and deenergized (“OFF”) when this bit is written to zero. To energize a segment, an absolute voltage above a certain threshold must be applied. This is done by setting the SEG pin to opposite phase when the corresponding COM pin is active. For a display with more than one common terminal, two (1/3 bias) additional voltage levels must be applied. Otherwise, non-energized segments on COM0 would be energized for all non-selected common terminals. Addressing COM0 starts a frame by driving an opposite phase with large amplitude on COM0 as against non addressed COM lines. Non-energized segments are in phase with the addressed COM0, and energized segments have opposite phase and large amplitude. For waveform figures refer to “Mode of Operation” on page 302. DATA4 - DATA0 from Shadow Display Memory is multiplexed into the decoder. The decoder is controlled from the LCD timing and sets up signals controlling the analog switches to produce an output waveform. Next, COM1 is addressed, and DATA9 - DATA5 from Shadow Display Memory is input to the decoder. Addressing continues until all COM lines are addressed according to the number of selected common terminals (duty). 25.2.5 Minimizing Power Consumption The power consumption of the LCD controller can be minimized by: 1. Using the lowest acceptable frame rate - Refer to the LCD glass technical characteristics. 2. Using the low power waveform - “Low Power Waveform” on page 303 3. Programming the lowest possible contrast value - “CTRLF – Control register F” on page 313. 25.3 Block Diagram Figure 25-2.

This kind of display is driven with the waveform shown in Figure 25-3 on page 302. SEG0-COM0 is the voltage across a segment that is “ON”, and SEG1-COM0 is the voltage across a segment that is “OFF”. Figure 25-3. Driving an LCD With One Common Terminal 25.4.2 1/2 Duty and 1/3 Bias For an LCD with two common terminals (1/2 duty) a more complex waveform must be used to individually control segments. The waveform is shown in Figure 25-4 on page 302. SEG0-COM0 is the voltage across a segment that is “ON”, and SEG0-COM1 is the voltage across a segment that is “OFF”. Figure 25-4. Driving an LCD With Two Common Terminals 25.4.3 1/3 Duty and 1/3 Bias 1/3 bias is usually recommended for an LCD with three common terminals (1/3 duty). The waveform is shown in Figure 25-5 on page 303. SEG0-COM0 is the voltage across a segment that is “ON” and SEG0-COM1 is the voltage across a segment that is “OFF”. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 303 8291C–AVR–09/2014 Figure 25-5. Driving an LCD With Three Common Terminals 25.4.4 1/4 Duty and 1/3 Bias 1/3 bias is optimal for an LCD displays with four common terminals (1/4 duty). The waveform is shown in Figure 25-6 on page 303. SEG0-COM0 is the voltage across a segment that is ON” and SEG0-COM1 is the voltage across a segment that is “OFF”. Figure 25-6. Driving an LCD With Four Common Terminals 25.4.5 Low Power Waveform To reduce toggle activity and hence power consumption, a low power waveform (LPWAV=1) can be selected. The low power waveform requires two subsequent frames with the same display data to obtain zero DC voltage. Consequently, the interrupt flag is only set every two frames. Default and the low power waveform is shown in Figure 25-7 on page 304 for 1/3 duty and 1/3 bias. For other selections of duty and bias, the effect is similar.

Low Power Waveform With Three Common Terminals 25.4.6 Operation in Sleep Modes The LCD will continue to operate in Idle mode, in Power-save mode and in Extended Standby mode (blinking included). 25.4.7 ASCII Character Mapping The LCD controller can automatically handle ASCII characters. Instead of setting and clearing segments of the digit, the user enters the ASCII code and the Digit Decoder updates itself the corresponding segment values in the Display Memory. Up to 4 types of character mapping are supported. Figure 25-8. ASCII Character Mapping Character mapping saves execution time and allows a fast return to Power-save or Extended Standby mode after display updates. 25.4.8 Display Blanking When BLANK is written to one, the LCD is blanked after the completion of the current frame. All segment and common pins are driven to GND, discharging the LCD. Data in the Display Memory is preserved. Display blanking should be used before disabling the LCD to avoid DC voltage across the segments, and a slowly fading image. This mode differs from the one enabled by SEGON = 0 (in CTRLA register) where the segment and common pins are always driven by the programmed waveform and where all the segments are “OFF”. 7-Segment - 4 COM term. - 2 SEG term. 7-Segment - 3 COM term. - 3 SEG term. 16-Segment - 3 COM term. - 6 SEG term. 14-Segment - 4 COM term. - 4 SEG term. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 305 8291C–AVR–09/2014 25.4.9 Display Blinking There are two ways to blink the display, controlled from software and controlled automatically by hardware. 25.4.9.1 Software Blinking Setting / clearing segment(s) in the Display Memory allows software blinking. To blink simultaneously all enabled segments, SEGON bit in CRTLA register can be used. The blink rate is software dependant. 25.4.9.2 Hardware Blinking Up to eight segments (pixels) can be configured to automatically blink. These segments must be connected to the segment terminal SEG1 and/or SEG0. This mode is enabled by setting the BLINKEN bit in the CTRLD register and defining the associated common terminal(s) in the CTRLE register.The blink rate frequency is configured by using the BLINKRATE bit-field in the CTRLD register. A segment will blink if its corresponding bit is set in the Display Memory, otherwise it will remain “OFF”. If all bits in the CTRLE register are set to zero, then blinking is applied to all enabled segments. The BLINK command will come into operation at the beginning of the next LCD frame. Table 25-2. Blinking modes. Notes: 1. SEGON bit in CTRLA register. 25.4.10 Extended Interrupt Mode In standard interrupt mode (XIME[4:0]=0), the LCD controller can provide an interrupt every frames. When the extended interrupt mode is enabled, the LCD controller can provide the interrupt every XIME[4:0]+1 frames. This mode provides an embedded time base for user. This time base can be used by the software in charge of display updates (i.e. scrolling text, progress bar, ...). The extended interrupt mode saves real time resources and allows the application to stay longer in Power-save or Extended Standby mode. 25.4.11 LCD Power Supply The LCD power supply manages all voltages for LCD buffers. The XBIAS bit in the CTRLA register defines the source of V LCD. If XBIAS is cleared, V LCD sources voltages from the Bandgap Reference. Otherwise, V LCD must be powered externally. Note that when using external V LCD, the fine contrast controlled by FCONT[5:0] bits of the CRTLG register is inoperative.

The first segment (or common) terminal pin becomes the last one, and so on. It is very useful in Chip on Glass (CoG), Chip on Film (CoF) or Chip on Board (CoB) technologies. SEGSWP bit and COMSWP bit in the CRTLA register control the order of the respective terminal buses. Note: 1. Refer to specific device datasheet for availability of this feature. 25.4.13 Port Mask For LCD panels that do not use all the available segment terminals of the device, it is possible to mask some of the unused pins. PMSK bit-field in the CTRLC register defines the number of segment terminals used in the application. Up to 16 unused segment terminal pins can be used as standard GPIO pins. They are always placed at the end of the segment terminal bus. The 8 last pins of this bus will become PG[0:7] - Port G - and the following 8 pins will become PM[0:7] - Port M. The GPIO functions on LCD pins are enabled if the corresponding segment terminal is masked or if the LCD controller is disabled. A pure segment terminal - not shared with GPIO - is grounded via a pull-down resistor if it is masked or if the LCD controller is disabled. Note: SEGSWP bit, which reverses the segment terminal indexing, will be active even if the LCD controller is disabled (ENABLE bit in the CRTLA register) and will thus also modify the GPIO pin mapping. Examples of a 40-segment LCD controller: z If 30 segments are used: Segment terminals [39:32] = PG[0:7] , Port G (GPIO functions) Segment terminals [31:30] = PM[0:1] , Port M (GPIO functions) Segment terminals [29:0] = SEG[29:0] , LCD (LCD functions) z If 20 segments are used: Segment terminals [39:32] = PG[0:7] , Port G (GPIO functions) Segment terminals [31:24] = PM[0:7] , Port M (GPIO functions) Segment terminals [23:20] = GND (pull down) Segment terminals [19:0] = SEG[19:0] , LCD (LCD functions) XMEGA B [MANUAL] 308 8291C–AVR–09/2014 25.5 Register Description – LCD 25.5.1 CTRLA – Control register A z Bit 7 – ENABLE: LCD Enable Writing this bit to one enables the LCD. By writing it to zero, the LCD is turned “OFF” immediately. Turning the LCD “OFF” while driving a display, drives the output to ground to discharge the display (apart from segment terminals which will be controlled by GPIO settings). z Bit 6 – XBIAS: External Bias Generation When this bit is set, the LCD buffers which drive the intermediate voltage levels are turned “OFF”. When XBIAS is “OFF”, an external source for V LCD is necessary. z Bit 5 – DATLCK: Data Register Lock Writing this bit to one freezes the Shadow Display Memory. If the Display Memory is modified, the Shadow Display Memory is locked and the display remains unchanged. When the bit is cleared, the Shadow Display Memory is updated when a new frame starts (see Figure 25-2 on page 301). z Bit 4 – COMSWP: Common Terminal Bus Swap(1) Writing this bit to one inverts the order of the common terminal bus (COM[3:0]). The common terminals disabled by DUTY[1:0] are also affected (see Table 25-4). Table 25-4. Common terminal bus reverse. Note: 1. Refer to specific device datasheet for availability of this feature. z Bit 3 – SEGSWP: Segment Terminal Bus Swap(1) Writing this bit to one inverts completely the order of the segment terminal bus (SEG[39:0]). The segment terminals unselected by PMSK[5:0] are also affected (see Table 25-5 on page 309).

Segment terminal bus reverse (examples) Note: 1. Refer to specific device datasheet for availability of this feature. z Bit 2 – CLRDT: Clear Data Register Writing this bit to one clears immediately the Display Memory (but not the control registers). The display will be blanked after completion of a frame. This bit is automatically reset once the Display Memory is cleared. z Bit 1 – SEGON: Segments “ON”. Writing this bit to one enables all segments and the contents of the Display Memory is output on the LCD. Writing it to zero, turns “OFF” all LCD segments. This bit can be used to flash the LCD, leaving the LCD timing generator enabled. z Bit 0 – BLANK: Blanking Display Mode When this bit is written to one, the display will be blanked after completion of a frame. All segment and common terminals will be driven to ground. (For more details see “Display Blanking” on page 304). This function does not modify the Display Memory. 25.5.2 CTRLB – Control register B z Bit 7 – PRESC: LCD Prescaler Select The PRESC bit selects a tap point from a ripple counter. The ripple counter output can be further divided by setting the Clock Divider (CLKDIV[2:0]). The different selections are shown in Table 25-6. Together they define the prescaler LCD clock (clk LCD_PS), which is clocking the LCD controller. Table 25-6. LCD prescaler selection.

The various selections are shown in Table 25-7. This Clock Divider gives extra flexibility in frame rate setting. Frame rate equation: Where: N = prescaler divider (8 or 16). K = 8 for 1/4, 1/2 and static duty. K = 6 for 1/3 duty. Table 25-7. LCD clock divider (1/4 dyty). Note that when using 1/3 duty, the frame rate is increased by 33% compared to the values listed above. Table 25-8. Example of frame rate calculation. z Bit 3 – LPWAV: Low Power Waveform When LPWAV is written to one, the low power waveform is outputted on LCD pins, otherwise the standard waveform is outputted. If this bit is modified during display operation the change takes place at the beginning of the next frame. (For more details see “Low Power Waveform” on page 303). z Bit 2 – Reserved This bit is unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write this bit to zero when this register is written.

The range is 1 up to 32 frames. z For low power waveforms requiring 2 subsequent frames, the FCIF flag is generated every 2 x ( XIME[4:0] + 1 ) frames. The range is 2 up to 64 frames.

The ADC has 12-bit resolution and is capable of converting up to 300 thousand samples per second (ksps). The input selection is flexible, and both single-ended and differential measurements can be done. For differential measurements, an optional gain stage is available to increase the dynamic range. In addition, several internal signal inputs are available. The ADC can provide both signed and unsigned results. The ADC measurements can either be started by application software or an incoming event from another peripheral in the device. The ADC measurements can be started with predictable timing, and without software intervention. It is possible to use DMA to move ADC results directly to memory or peripherals when conversions are done. Both internal and external reference voltages can be used. An integrated temperature sensor is available for use with the ADC. The AVCC/10 and the bandgap voltage can also be measured by the ADC. The ADC has a compare function for accurate monitoring of user defined thresholds with minimum software intervention required. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 321 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 26-1. ADC overview. 26.3 Input Sources Input sources are the voltage inputs that the ADC can measure and convert. Four types of measurements can be selected: z Differential input z Differential input with gain z Single-ended input z Internal input The input pins are used for single-ended and differential input, while the internal inputs are directly available inside the device. In devices with two ADCs, PORTA pins can be input to ADCA and PORTB pins can be input to ADCB. For the devices with only one ADC, input pins may be available for ADCA on both PORTA and PORTB. The ADC is differential, and so for single-ended measurements the negative input is connected to a fixed internal value. The four types of measurements and their corresponding input options are shown in Figure 26-2 on page 322 to Figure 26-6 on page 324. 26.3.1 Differential Input When differential input is enabled, all input pins can be selected as positive input, and input pins 0 to 3 can be selected as negative input. The ADC must be in signed mode when differential input is used.

When gain is enabled, the differential input is first sampled and amplified by the gain stage before the result is converted. The ADC must be in signed mode when differential input with gain is used. The gain is selectable to 1/2x, 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x, and 64x gain. Figure 26-3. Differential measurement with gain. 26.3.3 Single-ended Input For single-ended measurements, all input pins can be used as inputs. Single-ended measurements can be done in both signed and unsigned mode. The negative input is connected to internal ground in signed mode. + - ADC0 ADC3 ADC0 ADC15 • • • • • • GND INTGND + - ADC4 ADC7 ADC0 ADC7 • • • • • • GND INTGND ½x - 64x XMEGA B [MANUAL] 323 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 26-4. Single-ended measurement in signed mode. In unsigned mode, the negative input is connected to half of the voltage reference (VREF) voltage minus a fixed offset. The nominal value for the offset is: Since the ADC is differential, the input range is VREF to zero for the positive single-ended input. The offset enables the ADC to measure zero crossing in unsigned mode, and allows for calibration of any positive offset when the internal ground in the device is higher than the external ground. See Figure 26-11 on page 326 for details. Figure 26-5. Single-ended measurement in unsigned mode. 26.3.4 Internal Inputs These internal signals can be measured or used by the ADC. z Temperature sensor z Bandgap voltage z AVCC scaled z Pad and Internal Ground The temperature sensor gives an output voltage that increases linearly with the internal temperature of the device. One or more calibration points are needed to compute the temperature from a measurement of the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is calibrated at one point in production test, and the result is stored to TEMPESENSE0 and TEMPSENSE1 in the production signature row. For more calibration condition details, refer to the device datasheet. The bandgap voltage is an accurate internal voltage reference. VCC can be measured directly by scaling it down by a factor of 10 before the ADC input. Thus, a VCC of 1.8V will be measured as 0.18V, and VCC of 3.6V will be measured as 0.36V. This enables easy measurement of the VCC voltage. The internal signals need to be enabled before they can be measured. Refer to their manual sections for Bandgap for details of how to enable these. The sample rate for the internal signals is lower than that of the ADC. Refer to the ADC characteristics in the device datasheets for details. For differential measurement Pad Ground (Gnd) and Internal Gnd can be selected as negative input. Pad Gnd is the gnd level on the pin and identical or very close to the external gnd. Internal Gnd is the internal device gnd level. Internal Gnd is used as the negative input when other internal signals are measured in single-ended signed mode. • + ADC - ADC0 ADC15 • • ΔV VREF = × 0.05 • • + ADC - ADC0 ADC15 −ΔV VREF ____ 2 • XMEGA B [MANUAL] 324 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 26-6. Internal measurements in single-ended signed mode. To measure the internal signals in unsigned mode, the negative input is connected to a fixed value given by the formula below, which is half of the voltage reference (VREF) minus a fixed offset, as it is for single-ended unsigned input. Refer to Figure 26-11 on page 326 for details. VINN = VREF/2 - ΔV Figure 26-7. Internal measurements in unsigned mode. 26.4 Sampling Time Control To support applications with high source output resistance, the sampling time can be increased by steps of one half ADC clock cycle up to 64 ADC clock cycles. 26.5 Voltage Reference Selection The following voltages can be used as the reference voltage (VREF) for the ADC: z Accurate internal 1.00V voltage generated from the bandgap z Internal AVCC/1.6V voltage z Internal AVCC/2V voltage z External voltage applied to AREF pin on PORTA z External voltage applied to AREF pin on PORTB Figure 26-8.

The ADC is either in signed or unsigned mode. This setting is global for the ADC and for the ADC channel. In signed mode, negative and positive results are generated. Signed mode must be used when the ADC channel is set up for differential measurements. In unsigned mode, only single-ended or internal signals can be measured. With 12-bit resolution, the TOP value of a signed result is 2047, and the results will be in the range -2048 to +2047 (0xF800 - 0x07FF). The ADC transfer function can be written as: VINP and VINN are the positive and negative inputs to the ADC. For differential measurements, GAIN is 1/2 to 64. For single-ended and internal measurements, GAIN is always 1 and VINP is the internal ground. In unsigned mode, only positive results are generated. The TOP value of an unsigned result is 4095, and the results will be in the range 0 to +4095 (0x0 - 0x0FFF). The ADC transfer functions can be written as: VINP is the single-ended or internal input. The ADC can be configured to generate either an 8-bit or a 12-bit result. A result with lower resolution will be available faster. See the “ADC Clock and Conversion Timing” on page 326 for a description on the propagation delay. The result register is 16 bits wide, and data are stored as right adjusted 16-bit values. Right adjusted means that the eight least-significant bits (lsb) are found in the low byte. A 12-bit result can be represented either left or right adjusted. Left adjusted means that the eight most-significant bits (msb) are found in the high byte. When the ADC is in signed mode, the msb represents the sign bit. In 12-bit right adjusted mode, the sign bit (bit 11) is padded to bits 12-15 to create a signed 16-bit number directly. In 8-bit mode, the sign bit (bit 7) is padded to the entire high byte. Figure 26-9 on page 325 to Figure 26-11 on page 326 show the different input options, the signal input range, and the result representation with 12-bit right adjusted mode. Figure 26-9.

Figure 26-11.Unsigned single-ended and internal input, input range, and result representation. 26.7 Compare Function The ADC has a built-in 12-bit compare function. The ADC compare register can hold a 12-bit value that represents a threshold voltage. The ADC channel can be configured to automatically compare its result with this compare value to give an interrupt or event only when the result is above or below the threshold. 26.8 Starting a Conversion Before a conversion is started, the input source must be selected. An ADC conversion can be started either by the application software writing to the start conversion bit or from any events in the event system. 26.8.1 Input Source Scan It is possible to select a range of consecutive input sources that is automatically scanned and measured when a conversion is started. This is done by setting the first (lowest) positive ADC channel input using the MUX control register, and a number of consecutive positive input sources. When a conversion is started, the first selected input source is measured and converted, then the positive input source selection is incremented after each conversion until it reaches the specified number of sources to scan. 26.9 ADC Clock and Conversion Timing The ADC is clocked from the peripheral clock. The ADC can prescale the peripheral clock to provide an ADC Clock (clkADC) that matches the application requirements and is within the operating range of the ADC. 2047 2046 2045 ... 3 2 1 0 -1 -2 ... -2045 -2046 -2047 -2048 7FF 7FE 7FD ... 3 2 1 0 FFF FFE ... 803 802 801 800 Dec Hex 0111 1111 1111 0111 1111 1110 0111 1111 1101 ... 0000 0000 0011 0000 0000 0010 0000 0000 0001 0000 0000 0000 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1110 ... 1000 0000 0011 1000 0000 0010 1000 0000 0001 1000 0000 0000 Binary 0000 0111 1111 1111 0000 0111 1111 1110 0000 0111 1111 1101 ... 0000 0000 0000 0011 0000 0000 0000 0010 0000 0000 0000 0001 0000 0000 0000 0000 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1110 ... 1111 1000 0000 0011 1111 1000 0000 0010 1111 1000 0000 0001 1111 1000 0000 0000 16-bit result register VREF -VREF 0 V VINP VINN = GND 4095 4094 4093 ... 203 202 201 200 FFF FFE FFD ... 0CB 0CA 0C9 0C8 Dec Hex 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1110 1111 1111 1101 ... 0000 1100 1011 0000 1100 1010 0000 1100 1001 0000 1100 1000 Binary 0000 1111 1111 1111 0000 1111 1111 1110 0000 1111 1111 1101 ... 0000 0000 1100 1011 0000 0000 1100 1010 0000 0000 1100 1001 0000 0000 1100 1000 16-bit result register V VREF VINN = − Δ 2 GND VREF − ΔV VINP ... 0 0 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 XMEGA B [MANUAL] 327 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 26-12.ADC prescaler. The propagation delay of an ADC measurement is given by: RESOLUTION is the resolution, 8 or 12 bits. The propagation delay will increase by extra ADC clock cycles if the gain stage (GAIN) is used. A new ADC conversion can start as soon as the previous is completed. The most-significant bit (msb) of the result is converted first, and the rest of the bits are converted during the next three (for 8-bit results) or five (for 12-bit results) ADC clock cycles. Converting one bit takes a half ADC clock period. During the last cycle, the result is prepared before the interrupt flag is set and the result is available in the result register for readout. 26.9.1 Single Conversion without Gain Figure 26-13 on page 327 shows the ADC timing for a single conversion without gain. The writing of the start conversion bit, or the event triggering the conversion (START), must occur at least one peripheral clock cycle before the ADC clock cycle on which the conversion starts (indicated with the grey slope of the START trigger). The input source is sampled in the first half of the first cycle.

As seen in the “Overview” on page 320, the gain stage is built into the ADC. Gain is achieved by running the signal through a pipeline stage without converting. Compared to a conversion without gain, each gain multiplication of 2 adds one half ADC clock cycle propagation delay. Figure 26-15.ADC timing for one single conversion with 2x gain.

Seen externally, the ADC input consists of an input resistance (Rin = Rchannel + Rswitch) and the S/H capacitor (Csample).

Figure 26-19.ADC input for differential measurements and differential measurements with gain. In order to achieve n bits of accuracy, the source output resistance, Rsource, must be less than the ADC input resistance on a pin: where the ADC sample time, TS is one-half the ADC clock cycle given by: For details on Rchannel, Rswitch, and Csample, refer to the ADC electrical characteristic in the device datasheet.

A new conversion result can trigger a DMA transaction. Refer to “DMAC - Direct Memory Access Controller” on page 47 for more details on DMA transfers. 26.12 Interrupts and Events The ADC can generate interrupt requests and events. The ADC channel has individual interrupt settings and interrupt vectors. Interrupt requests and events can be generated when an ADC conversion is complete or when an ADC measurement is above or below the ADC compare register value. 26.13 Calibration The ADC has built-in linearity calibration. The value from the production test calibration must be loaded from the signature row and into the ADC calibration register from software to achieve specified accuracy. User calibration of the linearity is not needed, hence not possible. Offset and gain calibration must be done in software. 26.14 Synchronous Sampling Starting an ADC conversion can cause an unknown delay between the start trigger or event and the actual conversion since the peripheral clock is faster than the ADC clock. To start an ADC conversion immediately on an incoming event, it is possible to flush the ADC of all measurements, reset the ADC clock, and start the conversion at the next peripheral clock cycle (which then will also be the next ADC clock cycle). If this is done, the ongoing conversions in the ADC will be lost. The ADC can be flushed from software, or an incoming event can do this automatically. When this function is used, the time between each conversion start trigger must be longer than the ADC propagation delay to ensure that one conversion is finished before the ADC is flushed and the next conversion is started. It is also important to clear pending events or start ADC conversion commands before doing a flush. If not, pending conversions will start immediately after the flush.

The analog comparator may be configured to generate interrupt requests and/or events upon several different combinations of input change. The analog comparator hysteresis can be adjusted in order to achieve the optimal operation for each application. The input selection includes analog port pins, several internal signals, and a 64-level programmable voltage scaler. The analog comparator output state can also be output on a pin for use by external devices. A constant current source can be enabled and output on a selectable pin. This can be used to replace, for example, external resistors used to charge capacitors in capacitive touch sensing applications. The analog comparators are always grouped in pairs on each port. These are called analog comparator 0 (AC0) and analog comparator 1 (AC1). They have identical behavior, but separate control registers. Used as pair, they can be set in window mode to compare a signal to a voltage range instead of a voltage level. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 346 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 27-1. Analog comparator overview. 27.3 Input Sources Each analog comparator has one positive and one negative input. Each input may be chosen from a selection of analog input pins and internal inputs such as a AVCC voltage scaler. The digital output from the analog comparator is one when the difference between the positive and the negative input voltage is positive, and zero otherwise. 27.3.1 Pin Inputs Any of analog input pins on the port can be selected as input to the analog comparator. 27.3.2 Internal Inputs Two internal inputs are available for the analog comparator: z Bandgap reference voltage z Voltage scaler, which provides a 64-level scaling of the internal AVCC voltage 27.4 Signal Compare In order to start a signal comparison, the analog comparator must be configured with the preferred properties and inputs before the module is enabled. The result of the comparison is continuously updated and available for application software and the event system. 27.5 Interrupts and Events The analog comparator can be configured to generate interrupts when the output toggles, when the output changes from zero to one (rising edge), or when the output changes from one to zero (falling edge). Events are generated at all times for the same condition as the interrupt, regardless of whether the interrupt is enabled or not.

IEEE 1149.1 JTAG Boundary Scan Interface 28.1 Features • JTAG (IEEE Std. 1149.1-2001 compliant) interface • Boundary scan capabilities according to the JTAG standard • Full scan of all I/O pins • Supports the mandatory SAMPLE, IDCODE, PRELOAD, EXTEST, and BYPASS instructions • Supports the optional HIGHZ and CLAMP instructions • Supports the AVR-specific PDICOM instruction for accessing the PDI 28.2 Overview The JTAG interface is mainly intended for testing PCBs by using the JTAG boundary scan capability. Secondarily, the JTAG interface is used to access the Program and Debug Interface (PDI) in its optional JTAG mode. The boundary scan chain has the capability of driving and observing the logic levels on I/O pins. At the system level, all microcontroller or board components having JTAG capabilities are connected serially by the TDI/TDO signals to form a long shift register. An external controller sets up the devices to drive values at their output pins, and observes the input values received from other devices. The controller compares the received data with the expected result. In this way, boundary scan method provides a mechanism for testing the interconnections and integrity of components on printed circuit boards by using only the four test access port (TAP) signals. The IEEE Std. 1149.1-2001 defined mandatory JTAG instructions, IDCODE, BYPASS, SAMPLE/ PRELOAD, and EXTEST, together with the optional CLAMP and HIGHZ instructions can be used for testing the printed circuit board. Alternatively, the HIGHZ instruction can be used to place all I/O pins in an inactive drive state, while bypassing the boundary scan register chain of the chip. The AVR-specific PDICOM instruction makes it possible to use the PDI data register as an interface for accessing the PDI for programming and debugging. This provides an alternative way to access internal programming and debugging resources by using the JTAG interface. For more details on PDI, programming, and on-chip debugging, refer to “Program and Debug Interface” on page 393. The JTAGEN fuse must be programmed and the JTAGD bit in the MCUCR register must be cleared to enable the JTAG interface and TAP. See “FUSEBYTE4 – Fuse Byte4” on page 31, and “MCUCR – Control register” on page 45 for more details. When using the JTAG interface for boundary scan, the JTAG TCK clock frequency can be higher than the internal device frequency. A system clock in the device is not required for boundary scan. 28.3 TAP - Test Access Port The JTAG interface requires and uses four device I/O pins. In JTAG terminology, these pins constitute the test access port, or TAP. These pins are: z TMS: Test mode select. The pin is used for navigating through the TAP-controller state machine z TCK: Test clock. This is the JTAG clock signal, and all operation is synchronous to TCK z TDI: Test data in. Serial input data to be shifted in to the instruction register or data register (scan chains) z TDO: Test data out. Serial output data from the instruction register or data register The IEEE Std. 1149.1-2001 also specifies an optional test reset signal, TRST. This signal is not available. When the JTAGEN fuse is unprogrammed or the JTAG disable bit is set, the JTAG interface is disabled. The four TAP pins are normal port pins, and the TAP controller is in reset. When enabled, the input TAP signals are internally pulled high and JTAG is enabled for boundary scan operations. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 355 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 28-1. TAP controller state diagram. The TAP controller is a 16-state, finite state machine that controls the operation of the boundary scan circuitry. The state transitions shown in Figure 28-1 depend on the signal present on TMS (shown adjacent to each state transition) at the time of the rising edge on TCK. The initial state after a power-on reset is the test logic reset state. Assuming the present state is run test/idle, a typical scenario for using the JTAG interface is: z At the TMS input, apply the sequence 1, 1, 0, 0 at the rising edges of TCK to enter the shift instruction register, or shift IR, state. While in this state, shift the four bits of the JTAG instruction into the JTAG instruction register from the TDI input at the rising edge of TCK. The TMS input must be held low during input of the 3 lsbs in order to remain in the shift IR state. The msb of the instruction is shifted in when this state is left by setting TMS high. While the instruction is shifted in from the TDI pin, the captured IR state, 0x01, is shifted out on the TDO pin. The JTAG instruction selects a particular data register as the path between TDI and TDO and controls the circuitry surrounding the selected data register z Apply the TMS sequence 1, 1, 0 to reenter the run test/idle state. The instruction is latched onto the parallel output from the shift register path in the update IR state. The exit IR, pause IR, and exit2 IR states are used only for navigating the state machine z At the TMS input, apply the sequence 1, 0, 0 at the rising edges of TCK to enter the shift data register, or shift DR, state. While in this state, upload the selected data register (selected by the present JTAG instruction in the JTAG instruction register) from the TDI input at the rising edge of TCK. In order to remain in the shift DR state, the TMS input must be held low during the input of all bits except the msb. The msb of the data is shifted in when this state is left by setting TMS high. While the data register is shifted in from the TDI pin, the parallel inputs to the data register captured in the capture DR state are shifted out on the TDO pin z Apply the TMS sequence 1, 1, 0 to reenter the run test/idle state. If the selected data register has a latched parallel output, the latching takes place in the update DR state. The exit DR, pause DR, and exit2 DR states are used only for navigating the state machine. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 356 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 As shown in the state diagram, the run test/idle state need not be entered between selecting JTAG instructions and using data registers. Note: Independently of the initial state of the TAP controller, the test logic reset state can always be entered by holding TMS high for five TCK clock periods. 28.4 JTAG Instructions The instruction register is four bits wide. Listed below are the JTAG instructions for boundary scan operation and the PDICOM instruction used for accessing the PDI in JTAG mode. The lsb is shifted in and out first for all shift registers. The opcode for each instruction is shown beside the instruction name in hex format. The text describes which data register is selected as the path between TDI and TDO for each instruction. 28.4.1 EXTEST; 0x1 EXTEST is the instruction for selecting the boundary scan chain as the data register for testing circuitry external to the AVR XMEGA device package. The instruction is used for sampling external pins and loading output pins with data. For the I/O port pins, both output control (DIR) and output data (OUT) are controllable via the scan chain, while the output control and actual pin value are observable. The contents of the latched outputs of the boundary scan chain are driven out as soon as the JTAG instruction register is loaded with the EXTEST instruction. The active states are: z Capture DR: Data on the external pins are sampled into the boundary scan chain z Shift DR: Data in the Boundary-scan Chain are shifted by the TCK input z Update DR: Data from the scan chain are applied to output pins 28.4.2 IDCODE; 0x3 IDCODE is the instruction for selecting the 32-bit ID register as the data register. The ID register consists of a version number, a device number, and the manufacturer code chosen by the Joint Electron Devices Engineering Council (JEDEC). This is the default instruction after power up. The active states are: z Capture DR: Data in the IDCODE register are sampled into the device identification register z Shift DR: The IDCODE scan chain is shifted by the TCK input 28.4.3 SAMPLE/PRELOAD; 0x2 SAMPLE/PRELOAD is the instruction for preloading the output latches and taking a snapshot of the input/output pins without affecting system operation. However, the output latches are not connected to the pins. The boundary scan chain is selected as the data register. Since each of the SAMPLE and PRELOAD instructions implements the functionality of the other, they share a common binary value, and can be treated as a single, merged instruction. The active states are: z Capture DR: Data on the external pins are sampled into the boundary scan chain z Shift DR: The boundary scan chain is shifted by the TCK input z Update DR: Data from the boundary scan chain are applied to the output latches, but the output latches are not connected to the pins 28.4.4 BYPASS; 0xf BYPASS is the instruction for selecting the bypass register for the data register. This instruction can be issued to make the shortest possible scan chain through the device. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 357 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 The active states are: z Capture DR: Loads a zero into the bypass register z Shift DR: The bypass register cell between TDI and TDO is shifted 28.4.5 CLAMP; 0x4 CLAMP is an optional instruction that allows the state of the input/output pins to be determined from the preloaded output latches. The instruction allows static pin values to be applied via the boundary scan registers while bypassing these registers in the scan path, efficiently shortening the total length of the serial test path. The bypass register is selected as the data register. The active states are: z Capture DR: Loads a zero into the bypass register z Shift DR: The bypass register cell between TDI and TDO is shifted 28.4.6 HIGHZ; 0x5 HIGHZ is an optional instruction for putting all outputs in an inactive drive state (e.g., high impedance). The bypass register is selected as the data register. The active states are: z Capture DR: Loads a zero into the bypass register z Shift DR: The bypass register cell between TDI and TDO is shifted 28.4.7 PDICOM; 0x7 PDICOM is an AVR XMEGA specific instruction for using the JTAG TAP as an alternative interface to the PDI. The active states are: z Capture DR: Parallel data from the PDI are sampled into the PDICOM data register z Shift DR: The PDICOM data register is shifted by the TCK input z Update DR: Commands or operands are parallel-latched from the PDICOM data register into the PDI 28.5 Boundary Scan Chain The boundary scan chain has the capability of driving and observing the logic levels on the I/O pins. To ensure a predictable device behavior during and after the EXTEST, CLAMP, and HIGHZ instructions, the device is automatically put in reset. During active reset, the external oscillators, analog modules, and non-default port pin settings (like pullup/down, bus-keeper, wired-AND/OR) are disabled. It should be noted that the current device and port pin state are unaffected by the SAMPLE and PRELOAD instructions. 28.5.1 Scanning the Port Pins Figure 28-2 on page 358 shows the boundary scan cell used for all the bidirectional port pins. This cell is able to control and observe both pin direction and pin value via a two-stage shift register. When no alternate port function is present, output control corresponds to the DIR register value, output data corresponds to the OUT register value, and input data corresponds to the IN register value (tapped before the input inverter and input synchronizer). Mode represents either an active CLAMP or EXTEST instruction, while shift DR is set when the TAP controller is in its shift DR state.

Boundary scan cell for bi-directional port pin. 28.5.2 Scanning the PDI Pins Two observe-only cells are inserted to make the combined RESET and PDI_CLK pin and the PDI_DATA pin observable. Even though the PDI_DATA pin is bidirectional, it is only made observable in order to avoid any extra logic on the PDI_DATA output path. Figure 28-3. An observe-only input cell.

JTAG data register overview. 28.6.1 Bypass Register The bypass register consists of a single shift register stage. When the bypass register is selected as the path between TDI and TDO, the register is reset to 0 when leaving the capture DR controller state. The bypass register can be used to shorten the scan chain on a system when the other devices are to be tested. 28.6.2 Device Identification Register 28.6.2.1 Version Version is a 4-bit number identifying the revision of the device. The JTAG version number follows the revision of the device. Revision A is 0x0, revision B is 0x1, and so on. 28.6.2.2 Part Number The part number is a 16-bit code identifying the device. Refer to the device data sheets to find the correct number. 28.6.2.3 Manufacturer ID The manufacturer ID is an 11-bit code identifying the manufacturer. For Atmel, this code is 0x01F.

Refer to “Boundary Scan Chain” on page 357 for a complete description. 28.6.4 PDICOM Data Register The PDICOM data register is a 9-bit wide register used for serial-to-parallel and parallel-to-serial conversions of data between the JTAG TAP and the PDI.

The PDI supports fast programming of nonvolatile memory (NVM) spaces; flash, EEPOM, fuses, lock bits, and the user signature row. This is done by accessing the NVM controller and executing NVM controller commands, as described in “Memory Programming” on page 407. Debug is supported through an on-chip debug system that offers nonintrusive, real-time debug. It does not require any software or hardware resources except for the device pin connection. Using the Atmel tool chain, it offers complete program flow control and support for an unlimited number of program and complex data breakpoints. Application debug can be done from a C or other high-level language source code level, as well as from an assembler and disassembler level. Programming and debugging can be done through two physical interfaces. The primary one is the PDI physical layer, which is available on all devices. This is a two-pin interface that uses the Reset pin for the clock input (PDI_CLK) and one other dedicated pin for data input and output (PDI_DATA). A JTAG interface is also available on most devices, and this can be used for programming and debugging through the four-pin JTAG interface. The JTAG interface is IEEE Std. 1149.1 compliant, and supports boundary scan. Any external programmer or on-chip debugger/emulator can be directly connected to either of these interfaces. Unless otherwise stated, all references to the PDI assume access through the PDI physical layer. Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 362 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 29-1. The PDI with JTAG and PDI physical layers and closely related modules (grey). 29.3 PDI Physical The PDI physical layer handles the low-level serial communication. It uses a bidirectional, half-duplex, synchronous serial receiver and transmitter (just as a USART in USRT mode). The physical layer includes start-of-frame detection, frame error detection, parity generation, parity error detection, and collision detection. In addition to PDI_CLK and PDI_DATA, the PDI_DATA pin has an internal pull resistor, VCC and GND must be connected between the External Programmer/debugger and the device. Figure 29-2 on page 362 shows a typical connection. Figure 29-2. PDI connection. The remainder of this section is intended for use only by third parties developing programmers or programming support for Atmel AVR XMEGA devices. 29.3.1 Enabling The PDI physical layer must be enabled before use. This is done by first forcing the PDI_DATA line high for a period longer than the equivalent external reset minimum pulse width (refer to device datasheet for external reset pulse width data). This will disable the RESET functionality of the Reset pin, if not already disabled by the fuse settings. Next, continue to keep the PDI_DATA line high for 16 PDI_CLK cycles. The first PDI_CLK cycle must start no later than 100μs after the RESET functionality of the Reset pin is disabled. If this does not occur in time, the enabling procedure must start over again. The enable sequence is shown in Figure 29-3 on page 363.

PDI physical layer enable sequence. The Reset pin is sampled when the PDI interface is enabled. The reset register is then set according to the state of the Reset pin, preventing the device from running code after the reset functionality of this pin is disabled. 29.3.2 Disabling If the clock frequency on PDI_CLK is lower than approximately 10kHz, this is regarded as inactivity on the clock line. This will automatically disable the PDI. If not disabled by a fuse, the reset function of the Reset (PDI_CLK) pin is enabled again. This also means that the minimum programming frequency is approximately 10kHz. 29.3.3 Frame Format and Characters The PDI physical layer uses a frame format defined as one character of eight data bits, with a start bit, a parity bit, and two stop bits. Figure 29-4. PDI serial frame format. Three different characters are used, DATA, BREAK, and IDLE. The BREAK character is equal to a 12-bit length of low level. The IDLE character is equal to a 12- bit length of high level. The BREAK and IDLE characters can be extended beyond the 12-bit length. Figure 29-5. Characters and timing for the PDI physical layer. Disable RESET function on Reset (PDI_CLK) pin Activate PDI PDI_DATA PDI_CLK St Start bit, always low (0-7) Data bits (0 to 7) P Parity bit, even parity used Sp1 Stop bit 1, always high Sp2 Stop bit 2, always high St 012 3 4567P Sp1 FRAME (IDLE) Sp2 (St/IDLE) START 012 3 4567P STOP 1 IDLE character BREAK IDLE 1 DATA character 1 BREAK character Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 364 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 29.3.4 Serial Transmission and Reception The PDI physical layer is either in transmit (TX) or receive (RX) mode. By default, it is in RX mode, waiting for a start bit. The programmer and the PDI operate synchronously on the PDI_CLK provided by the programmer. The dependency between the clock edges and data sampling or data change is fixed. As illustrated in Figure 29-6 on page 364, output data (either from the programmer or the PDI) is always set up (changed) on the falling edge of PDI_CLK and sampled on the rising edge of PDI_CLK. Figure 29-6. Changing and sampling of data. 29.3.5 Serial Transmission When a data transmission is initiated, by the PDI controller, the transmitter simply shifts out the start bit, data bits, parity bit, and the two stop bits on the PDI_DATA line. The transmission speed is dictated by the PDI_CLK signal. While in transmission mode, IDLE bits (high bits) are automatically transmitted to fill possible gaps between successive DATA characters. If a collision is detected during transmission, the output driver is disabled, and the interface is put into RX mode waiting for a BREAK character. 29.3.6 Serial Reception When a start bit is detected, the receiver starts to collect the eight data bits. If the parity bit does not correspond to the parity of the data bits, a parity error has occurred. If one or both of the stop bits are low, a frame error has occurred. If the parity bit is correct, and no frame error is detected, the received data bits are available for the PDI controller. When the PDI is in TX mode, a BREAK character signaled by the programmer will not be interpreted as a BREAK, but will instead cause a generic data collision. When the PDI is in RX mode, a BREAK character will be recognized as a BREAK. By transmitting two successive BREAK characters (which must be separated by one or more high bits), the last BREAK character will always be recognized as a BREAK, regardless of whether the PDI was in TX or RX mode initially. This is because in TX mode the first BREAK is seen as a collision. The PDI then shifts to RX mode and sees the second BREAK as break. 29.3.7 Direction Change In order to ensure correct timing for half-duplex operation, a guard time mechanism is used. When the PDI changes from RX mode to TX mode, a configurable number of IDLE bits are inserted before the start bit is transmitted. The minimum transition time between RX and TX mode is two IDLE cycles, and these are always inserted. The default guard time value is 128 bits. Figure 29-7. PDI direction change by inserting IDLE bits. PDI_CLK PDI_DATA Sample Sample Sample St P Sp1 1 DATA character Sp2 IDLE bits St P 1 DATA character Sp1 Sp2 Dir. change PDI DATA Receive (RX) PDI DATA Transmit (TX) Data from PDI interface to Programmer Data from Programmer to PDI interface Guard time # IDLE bits inserted Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 365 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 The external programmer will loose control of the PDI_DATA line at the point where the PDI changes from RX to TX mode. The guard time relaxes this critical phase of the communication. When the programmer changes from RX mode to TX mode, a single IDLE bit, at minimum, should be inserted before the start bit is transmitted. 29.3.8 Drive Contention and Collision Detection In order to reduce the effect of drive contention (the PDI and the programmer driving the PDI_DATA line at the same time), a mechanism for collision detection is used. The mechanism is based on the way the PDI drives data out on the PDI_DATA line. As shown in Figure 29-8 on page 365, the PDI output driver is active only when the output value changes (from 0-1 or 1-0). Hence, if two or more successive bit values are the same, the value is actively driven only on the first clock cycle. After this point, the PDI output driver is automatically tri-stated, and the PDI_DATA pin has a bus keeper responsible for keeping the pin value unchanged until the output driver is reenabled due to a change in the bit value. Figure 29-8. Driving data out on the PDI_DATA using a bus keeper. If the programmer and the PDI both drive the PDI_DATA line at the same time, drive contention will occur, as illustrated in Figure 29-9 on page 365. Every time a bit value is kept for two or more clock cycles, the PDI is able to verify that the correct bit value is driven on the PDI_DATA line. If the programmer is driving the PDI_DATA line to the opposite bit value to what the PDI expects, a collision is detected. Figure 29-9. Drive contention and collision detection on the PDI_DATA line. As long as the PDI transmits alternating ones and zeros, collisions cannot be detected, because the PDI output driver will be active all the time, preventing polling of the PDI_DATA line. However, the two stop bits should always be transmitted as ones within a single frame, enabling collision detection at least once per frame. 1011 0 Output enable PDI_CLK PDI Output 0 1 PDI_DATA PDI_CLK PDI Output PDI_DATA 1 0 X 1 1 Programmer output X 1 Collision detect = Collision Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 366 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 29.4 JTAG Physical The JTAG physical layer handles the basic low-level serial communication over four I/O lines, TMS, TCK, TDI, and TDO. The JTAG physical layer includes BREAK detection, parity error detection, and parity generation. For all generic JTAG details, refer to “IEEE 1149.1 JTAG Boundary Scan Interface” on page 386. 29.4.1 Enabling The JTAGEN fuse must be programmed and the JTAG disable bit in the MCU control register must be cleared to enable the JTAG interface. This is done by default. When the JTAG PDICOM instruction is shifted into the JTAG instruction register, the JTAG interface can be used to access the PDI for external programming and on-chip debugging. 29.4.2 Disabling The JTAG interface can be disabled by unprogramming the JTAGEN fuse or by setting the JTAG disable bit in the MCU control register from the application code. 29.4.3 JTAG Instruction Set The Atmel XMEGA specific JTAG instruction set consist of eight instructions related to boundary scan and PDI access for programming. For more details on JTAG and the general JTAG instruction set, refer to “JTAG Instructions” on page 388. 29.4.3.1 The PDICOM Instruction When the PDICOM instruction is shifted into the JTAG instruction register, the 9-bit PDI communication register is selected as the data register. Commands are shifted into the register as results from previous commands are shifted out from the register. The active TAP controller states are (see “TAP - Test Access Port” on page 386): ̶ Capture DR: Parallel data from the PDI controller is sampled into the PDI communication register ̶ Shift DR: The PDI communication register is shifted by the TCK input ̶ Update DR: Commands or operands are parallel-latched into registers in the PDI controller 29.4.4 Frame Format and Characters The JTAG physical layer supports a fixed frame format. A serial frame is defined to be one character of eight data bits followed by one parity bit. Figure 29-10. JTAG serial frame format Three special data characters are used. Common among these is that the parity bit is inverted in order to force a parity error upon reception. The BREAK character (0xBB+P1) is used by the external programmer to force the PDI to abort any ongoing operation and bring the PDI controller into a known state. The DELAY character (0xDB+P1) is used by the PDI to tell the programmer that it has no data ready. The EMPTY character (0xEB+P1) is used by the PDI to tell the programmer that it has no transmission pending (i.e., the PDI is in RX-mode). (0-7) Data/command bits, least-significant bit sent first (0 to 7) P Parity bit, even parity used Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 367 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 29-11. Special data characters. 29.4.5 Serial transmission and reception The JTAG interface supports full-duplex communication. At the same time as input data is shifted in on the TDI pin, output data is shifted out on the TDO pin. However, PDI communication relies on half-duplex data transfer. Due to this, the JTAG physical layer operates only in either transmit (TX) or receive (RX) mode. The available JTAG bit channel is used for control and status signalling. The programmer and the JTAG interface operate synchronously on the TCK clock provided by the programmer. The dependency between the clock edges and data sampling or data change is fixed. As illustrated in Figure 29-12 on page 367, TDI and TDO is always set up (change) on the falling edge of TCK, while data always should be sampled on the rising edge of TCK. Figure 29-12. Changing and sampling data. 29.4.6 Serial Transmission When data transmission is initiated, a data byte is loaded into the shift register and then out on TDO. The parity bit is generated and appended to the data byte during transmission. The transmission speed is given by the TCK signal. If the PDI is in TX mode (as a response to an LD instruction), and a transmission request from the PDI controller is pending when the TAP controller enters the capture DR state, valid data will be parallel-loaded into the shift register, and a correct parity bit will be generated and transmitted along with the data byte in the shift DR state. If the PDI is in RX mode when the TAP controller enters the capture DR state, an EMPTY byte will be loaded into the shift register, and the parity bit will be set (forcing a parity error) when data is shifted out in the shift DR state. This situation occurs during normal PDI command and operand reception. If the PDI is in TX- mode (as a response to an LD instruction), but no transmission request from the PDI controller is pending when the TAP controller enters the capture DR state, a DELAY byte (0xDB) will be loaded into the shift register, and the parity bit will be set (forcing a parity error) when data is shifted out in the shift DR state. This situation occurs during data transmission if the data to be transmitted is not yet available. Figure 29-13 on page 368 shows an uninterrupted flow of data frames from the PDI as a response to the repeated indirect LD instruction. In this example, the device is not able to return data bytes faster than one valid byte per two transmitted frames. Thus, intermediate DELAY characters are inserted. Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 368 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 29-13. Data not ready marking. If a DELAY data frame is transmitted as a response to an LD instruction, the programmer should interpret this as if the JTAG interface had no data ready for transmission in the previous capture DR state. The programmer must initiate repeated transfers until a valid data byte is received. The LD instruction is defined to return a specified number of valid frames, not just a number of frames. Hence, if the programmer detects a DELAY character after transmitting an LD instruction, the LD instruction should not be retransmitted, because the first LD response would still be pending. 29.4.7 Serial Reception During reception, the PDI collects the eight data bits and the parity bit from TDI and shifts them into the shift register. Every time a valid frame is received, the data is latched in to the update DR state. The parity checker calculates the parity (even mode) of the data bits in incoming frames and compares the result with the parity bit from the serial frame. In case of a parity error, the PDI controller is signaled. The parity checker is active in both TX and RX modes. If a parity error is detected, the received data byte is evaluated and compared with the BREAK character (which will always generate a parity error). In case the BREAK character is recognized, the PDI controller is signaled. 29.5 PDI Controller The PDI controller performs data transmission/reception on a byte level, command decoding, high-level direction control, control and status register access, exception handling, and clock switching (PDI_CLK or TCK). The interaction between an external programmer and the PDI controller is based on a scheme where the programmer transmits various types of requests to the PDI controller, which in turn responds according to the specific request. A programmer request comes in the form of an instruction, which may be followed by one or more byte operands. The PDI controller response may be silent (e.g., a data byte is stored to a location within the device), or it may involve data being returned to the programmer (e.g., a data byte is read from a location within the device). 29.5.1 Switching between PDI and JTAG modes The PDI controller uses either the JTAG or PDI physical layer for establishing a connection to the programmer. Based on this, the PDI is in either JTAG or PDI mode. When one of the modes is entered, the PDI controller registers will be initialized, and the correct clock source will be selected. The PDI mode has higher priority than the JTAG mode. Hence, if the PDI mode is enabled while the PDI controller is already in JTAG mode, the access layer will automatically switch over to PDI mode. If switching physical layer without powering on/off the device, the active layer should be disabled before the alternative physical layer is enabled. 29.5.2 Accessing Internal Interfaces After an external programmer has established communication with the PDI, the internal interfaces are not accessible, by default. To get access to the NVM controller and the nonvolatile memories for programming, a unique key must be signaled by using the KEY instruction. The internal interfaces are accessed as one linear address space using a dedicated bus (PDIBUS) between the PDI and the internal interfaces. The PDIBUS address space is shown in Table 33-3 on page 421. The NVM controller must be enabled for the PDI controller to have any access to the NVM interface. The PDI controller can access the NVM and NVM controller in programming mode only. The PDI controller does not need to access the NVM controller's data or address registers when reading or writing NVM. Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 369 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 29.5.3 NVM Programming Key The key that must be sent using the KEY instruction is 64 bits long. The key that will enable NVM programming is: 0x1289AB45CDD888FF 29.5.4 Exception Handling There are several situations that are considered exceptions from normal operation. The exceptions depend on whether the PDI is in RX or TX mode and whether PDI or JTAG mode is used. While the PDI is in RX mode, the exceptions are: z PDI: ̶ The physical layer detects a parity error ̶ The physical layer detects a frame error ̶ The physical layer recognizes a BREAK character (also detected as a frame error) z JTAG: ̶ The physical layer detects a parity error ̶ The physical layer recognizes a BREAK character (also detected as a parity error) While the PDI is in TX mode, the exceptions are: z PDI: ̶ The physical layer detects a data collision z JTAG: ̶ The physical layer detects a parity error (on the dummy data shifted in on TDI) ̶ The physical layer recognizes a BREAK character Exceptions are signaled to the PDI controller. All ongoing operations are then aborted, and the PDI is put in ERROR state. The PDI will remain in ERROR state until a BREAK is sent from the external programmer, and this will bring the PDI back to its default RX state. Due to this mechanism, the programmer can always synchronize the protocol by transmitting two successive BREAK characters. 29.5.5 Reset Signalling Through the reset register, the programmer can issue a reset and force the device into reset. After clearing the reset register, reset is released, unless some other reset source is active. 29.5.6 Instruction Set The PDI has a small instruction set used for accessing both the PDI itself and the internal interfaces. All instructions are byte instructions. The instructions allow an external programmer to access the PDI controller, the NVM controller and the nonvolatile memories. 29.5.6.1 LDS - Load Data from PDIBUS Data Space using Direct Addressing The LDS instruction is used to load data from the PDIBUS data space for read out. The LDS instruction is based on direct addressing, which means that the address must be given as an argument to the instruction. Even though the protocol is based on byte-wise communication, the LDS instruction supports multiple-byte addresses and data access. Four different address/data sizes are supported: single-byte, word (two bytes), three-byte, and long (four bytes). Multiple-byte access is broken down internally into repeated single-byte accesses, but this reduces protocol overhead. When using the LDS instruction, the address byte(s) must be transmitted before the data transfer. 29.5.6.2 STS - Store Data to PDIBUS Data Space using Direct Addressing The STS instruction is used to store data that are serially shifted into the physical layer shift register to locations within the PDIBUS data space. The STS instruction is based on direct addressing, which means that the address must be given as an argument to the instruction. Even though the protocol is based on byte-wise communication, the ST Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 370 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 instruction supports multiple-bytes addresses and data access. Four different address/data sizes are supported: single-byte, word (two bytes), three-byte, and long (four bytes). Multiple-byte access is broken down internally into repeated single-byte accesses, but this reduces protocol overhead. When using the STS instruction, the address byte(s) must be transmitted before the data transfer. 29.5.6.3 LD - Load Data from PDIBUS Data Space using Indirect Addressing The LD instruction is used to load data from the PDIBUS data space into the physical layer shift register for serial read out. The LD instruction is based on indirect addressing (pointer access), which means that the address must be stored in the pointer register prior to the data access. Indirect addressing can be combined with pointer increment. In addition to reading data from the PDIBUS data space, the LD instruction can read the pointer register. Even though the protocol is based on byte-wise communication, the LD instruction supports multiple-byte addresses and data access. Four different address/data sizes are supported: single-byte, word (two bytes), three-byte, and long (four bytes). Multiple-byte access is broken down internally into repeated single-byte accesses, but this reduces the protocol overhead. 29.5.6.4 ST - Store Data to PDIBUS Data Space using Indirect Addressing The ST instruction is used to store data that is serially shifted into the physical layer shift register to locations within the PDIBUS data space. The ST instruction is based on indirect addressing (pointer access), which means that the address must be stored in the pointer register prior to the data access. Indirect addressing can be combined with pointer increment. In addition to writing data to the PDIBUS data space, the ST instruction can write the pointer register. Even though the protocol is based on byte-wise communication, the ST instruction supports multiple-bytes address - and data access. Four different address/data sizes are supported; byte, word, 3 bytes, and long (4 bytes). Multiple-bytes access is internally broken down to repeated single-byte accesses, but it reduces the protocol overhead. 29.5.6.5 LDCS - Load Data from PDI Control and Status Register Space The LDCS instruction is used to load data from the PDI control and status registers into the physical layer shift register for serial read out. The LDCS instruction supports only direct addressing and single-byte access. 29.5.6.6 STCS - Store Data to PDI Control and Status Register Space The STCS instruction is used to store data that are serially shifted into the physical layer shift register to locations within the PDI control and status registers. The STCS instruction supports only direct addressing and single-byte access. 29.5.6.7 KEY - Set Activation Key The KEY instruction is used to communicate the activation key bytes required for activating the NVM interfaces. 29.5.6.8 REPEAT - Set Instruction Repeat Counter The REPEAT instruction is used to store count values that are serially shifted into the physical layer shift register to the repeat counter register. The instruction that is loaded directly after the REPEAT instruction operand(s) will be repeated a number of times according to the specified repeat counter register value. Hence, the initial repeat counter value plus one gives the total number of times the instruction will be executed. Setting the repeat counter register to zero makes the following instruction run once without being repeated. The REPEAT instruction cannot be repeated. The KEY instruction cannot be repeated, and will override the current value of the repeat counter register. 29.5.7 Instruction Set Summary The PDI instruction set summary is shown in Figure 29-14 on page 371. Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 371 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 29-14. PDI instruction set summary. 29.6 Register Description – PDI Instruction and Addressing Registers The PDI instruction and addressing registers are internal registers utilized for instruction decoding and PDIBUS addressing. None of these registers are accessible as registers in a register space. 29.6.1 Instruction Register When an instruction is successfully shifted into the physical layer shift register, it is copied into the instruction register. The instruction is retained until another instruction is loaded. The reason for this is that the REPEAT command may force the same instruction to be run repeatedly, requiring command decoding to be performed several times on the same instruction. 29.6.2 Pointer Register The pointer register is used to store an address value that specifies locations within the PDIBUS address space. During direct data access, the pointer register is updated by the specified number of address bytes given as operand bytes to an instruction. During indirect data access, addressing is based on an address already stored in the pointer register prior to the access itself. Indirect data access can be optionally combined with pointer register post-increment.

Any register update is performed in a little-endian fashion. Hence, loading a single byte of the address register will always update the LSB while the most-significant bytes are left unchanged. The pointer register is not involved in addressing registers in the PDI control and status register space (CSRS space). 29.6.3 Repeat Counter Register The REPEAT instruction is always accompanied by one or more operand bytes that define the number of times the next instruction should be repeated. These operand bytes are copied into the repeat counter register upon reception. During the repeated executions of the instruction immediately following the REPEAT instruction and its operands, the repeat counter register is decremented until it reaches zero, indicating that all repetitions have completed. The repeat counter is also involved in key reception. 29.6.4 Operand Count Register Immediately after an instruction (except the LDCS and STCS instructions) a specified number of operands or data bytes (given by the size parts of the instruction) are expected. The operand count register is used to keep track of how many bytes have been transferred. Document Footer Title [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET] 373 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 29.7 Register Description – PDI Control and Status Registers The PDI control and status registers are accessible in the PDI control and status register space (CSRS) using the LDCS and STCS instructions. The CSRS contains registers directly involved in configuration and status monitoring of the PDI itself. 29.7.1 STATUS – Status register z Bit 7:2 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 1 – NVMEN: Nonvolatile Memory Enable This status bit is set when the key signalling enables the NVM programming interface. The external programmer can poll this bit to verify successful enabling. Writing the NVMEN bit disables the NVM interface. z Bit 0 – Reserved This bit is unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write this bit to zero when this register is written. 29.7.2 RESET – Reset register z Bit 7:0 – RESET[7:0]: Reset Signature When the reset signature, 0x59, is written to RESET, the device is forced into reset. The device is kept in reset until RESET is written with a data value different from the reset signature. Reading the lsb will return the status of the reset. The seven msbs will always return the value 0x00, regardless of whether the device is in reset or not. 29.7.3 CTRL – Control register z Bit 7:3 – Reserved These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero when this register is written. z Bit 2:0 – GUARDTIME[2:0]: Guard Time These bits specify the number of IDLE bits of guard time that are inserted in between PDI reception and transmission direction changes. The default guard time is 128 IDLE bits, and the available settings are shown in Table 29-1 on page 374. In order to speed up the communication, the guard time should be set to the lowest safe configuration accepted. No guard time is inserted when switching from TX to RX mode.

Memory Programming 30.1 Features z Read and write access to all memory spaces from z External programmers z Application software self-programming z Self-programming and boot loader support z Read-while-write self-programming z CPU can run and execute code while flash is being programmed z Any communication interface can be used for program upload/download z External programming z Support for in-system and production programming z Programming through serial PDI or JTAG interface z High security with separate boot lock bits for: z External programming access z Boot loader section access z Application section access z Application table access z Reset fuse to select reset vector address to the start of the z Application section, or z Boot loader section 30.2 Overview This section describes how to program the nonvolatile memory (NVM) in Atmel AVR XMEGA devices, and covers both self-programming and external programming. The NVM consists of the flash program memory, user signature and production signature rows, fuses and lock bits, and EEPROM data memory. For details on the actual memories, how they are organized, and the register description for the NVM controller used to access the memories, refer to “Memories” on page 20. The NVM can be accessed for read and write from application software through self-programming and from an external programmer. Accessing the NVM is done through the NVM controller, and the two methods of programming are similar. Memory access is done by loading address and/or data to the selected memory or NVM controller and using a set of commands and triggers that make the NVM controller perform specific tasks on the nonvolatile memory. From external programming, all memory spaces can be read and written, except for the production signature row, which can only be read. The device can be programmed in-system and is accessed through the PDI using the PDI or JTAG physical interfaces. “External Programming” on page 388 describes PDI and JTAG in detail. Self-programming and boot loader support allows application software in the device to read and write the flash, user signature row and EEPROM, write the lock bits to a more secure setting, and read the production signature row and fuses. The flash allows read-while-write self-programming, meaning that the CPU can continue to operate and execute code while the flash is being programmed. “Self-programming and Boot Loader Support” on page 379 describes this in detail. For both self-programming and external programming, it is possible to run a CRC check on the flash or a section of the flash to verify its content after programming. The device can be locked to prevent reading and/or writing of the NVM. There are separate lock bits for external programming access and self-programming access to the boot loader section, application section, and application table section. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 376 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 30.3 NVM Controller Access to the nonvolatile memories is done through the NVM controller. It controls NVM timing and access privileges, and holds the status of the NVM, and is the common NVM interface for both external programming and selfprogramming. For more details, refer to “Register Description” on page 393. 30.4 NVM Commands The NVM controller has a set of commands used to perform tasks on the NVM. This is done by writing the selected command to the NVM command register. In addition, data and addresses must be read/written from/to the NVM data and address registers for memory read/write operations. When a selected command is loaded and address and data are set up for the operation, each command has a trigger that will start the operation. Based on these triggers, there are three main types of commands. 30.4.1 Action-triggered Commands Action-triggered commands are triggered when the command execute (CMDEX) bit in the NVM control register A (CTRLA) is written. Action-triggered commands typically are used for operations which do not read or write the NVM, such as the CRC check. 30.4.2 NVM Read-triggered Commands NVM read-triggered commands are triggered when the NVM is read, and this is typically used for NVM read operations. 30.4.3 NVM Write-triggered Commands NVM write-triggered commands are triggered when the NVM is written, and this is typically used for NVM write operations. 30.4.4 Write/Execute Protection Most command triggers are protected from accidental modification/execution during self-programming. This is done using the configuration change protection (CCP) feature, which requires a special write or execute sequence in order to change a bit or execute an instruction. For details on the CCP, refer to “Configuration Change Protection” on page 13. 30.5 NVM Controller Busy Status When the NVM controller is busy performing an operation, the busy flag in the NVM status register is set and the following registers are blocked for write access: z NVM command register z NVM control A register z NVM control B register z NVM address registers z NVM data registers This ensures that the given command is executed and the operations finished before the start of a new operation. The external programmer or application software must ensure that the NVM is not addressed when it is busy with a programming operation. Programming any part of the NVM will automatically block: z All programming to other parts of the NVM z All loading/erasing of the flash and EEPROM page buffers z All NVM reads from external programmers z All NVM reads from the application section During self-programming, interrupts must be disabled or the interrupt vector table must be moved to the boot loader sections, as described in “Interrupts and Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller” on page 115. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 377 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 30.6 Flash and EEPROM Page Buffers The flash memory is updated page by page. The EEPROM can be updated on a byte-by-byte and page-by-page basis. flash and EEPROM page programming is done by first filling the associated page buffer, and then writing the entire page buffer to a selected page in flash or EEPROM. The size of the page and page buffers depends on the flash and EEPROM size in each device, and details are described in the device datasheet. 30.6.1 Flash Page Buffer The flash page buffer is filled one word at a time, and it must be erased before it can be loaded. When loading the page buffer with new content, the result is a binary AND between the existing content of the page buffer location and the new value. If the page buffer is already loaded once after erase the location will most likely be corrupted. Page buffer locations that are not loaded will have the value 0xFFFF, and this value will then be programmed into the corresponding flash page locations. The page buffer is automatically erased after: z A device reset z Executing the write flash page command z Executing the erase and write flash page command z Executing the signature row write command z Executing the write lock bit command 30.6.2 EEPROM Page Buffer The EEPROM page buffer is filled one byte at a time, and it must be erased before it can be loaded. When loading the page buffer with new content, the result is a binary AND between the existing content of the page buffer location and the new value. If the EEPROM page buffer is already loaded once after erase the location will most likely be corrupted. EEPROM page buffer locations that are loaded will get tagged by the NVM controller. During a page write or page erase, only targed locations will be written or erased. Locations that are not targed will not be written or erased, and the corresponding EEPROM location will remain unchanged. This means that before an EEPROM page erase, data must be loaded to the selected page buffer location to tag them. When performing an EEPROM page erase, the actual value of the tagged location does not matter. The EEPROM page buffer is automatically erased after: z A system reset z Executing the write EEPROM page command z Executing the erase and write EEPROM page command z Executing the write lock bit and write fuse commands 30.7 Flash and EEPROM Programming Sequences For page programming, filling the page buffers and writing the page buffer into flash or EEPROM are two separate operations. The sequence is same for both self-programming and external programming. 30.7.1 Flash Programming Sequence Before programming a flash page with the data in the flash page buffer, the flash page must be erased. Programming an un-erased flash page will corrupt its content. The flash page buffer can be filled either before the erase flash Page operation or between a erase flash page and a write flash page operation: XMEGA B [MANUAL] 378 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Alternative 1: z Fill the flash page buffer z Perform a flash page erase z Perform a flash page write Alternative 2: z Fill the flash page buffer z Perform an atomic page erase and write Alternative 3, fill the buffer after a page erase: z Perform a flash page erase z Fill the flash page buffer z Perform a flash page write The NVM command set supports both atomic erase and write operations, and split page erase and page write commands. This split commands enable shorter programming time for each command, and the erase operations can be done during non-time-critical programming execution. When using alternative 1 or 2 above for self-programming, the boot loader provides an effective read-modify-write feature, which allows the software to first read the page, do the necessary changes, and then write back the modified data. If alternative 3 is used, it is not possible to read the old data while loading, since the page is already erased. The page address must be the same for both page erase and page write operations when using alternative 1 or 3. 30.7.2 EEPROM Programming Sequence Before programming an EEPROM page with the tagged data bytes stored in the EEPROM page buffer, the selected locations in the EEPROM page must be erased. Programming an unerased EEPROM page will corrupt its content. The EEPROM page buffer must be loaded before any page erase or page write operations: Alternative 1: z Fill the EEPROM page buffer with the selected number of bytes z Perform a EEPROM page erase z Perform a EEPROM page write Alternative 2: z Fill the EEPROM page buffer with the selected number of bytes z Perform an atomic EEPROM page erase and write 30.8 Protection of NVM To protect the flash and EEPROM memories from write and/or read, lock bits can be set to restrict access from external programmers and the application software. Refer to “LOCKBITS – Lock Bit register” on page 29 for details on the available lock bit settings and how to use them. 30.9 Preventing NVM Corruption During periods when the VCC voltage is below the minimum operating voltage for the device, the result from a flash memory write can be corrupt, as supply voltage is too low for the CPU and the flash to operate properly.To ensure that the voltage is sufficient enough during a complete programming sequence of the flash memory, a voltage detector using the POR threshold (VPOT+) level is enabled. During chip erase and when the PDI is enabled the brownout detector (BOD) is automatically enabled at its configured level. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 379 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Depending on the programming operation, if any of these VCC voltage levels are reached, the programming sequence will be aborted immediately. If this happens, the NVM programming should be restarted when the power is sufficient again, in case the write sequence failed or only partly succeeded. 30.10 CRC Functionality It is possible to run an automatic cyclic redundancy check (CRC) on the flash program memory. When NVM is used to control the CRC module, an even number of bytes are read, at least in the flash range mode. If the user selects a range with an odd number of bytes, an extra byte will be read, and the checksum will not correspond to the selected range. Refer to “CRC – Cyclic Redundancy Check Generator” on page 293 for more details. 30.11 Self-programming and Boot Loader Support Reading and writing the EEPROM and flash memory from the application software in the device is referred to as selfprogramming. A boot loader (application code located in the boot loader section of the flash) can both read and write the flash program memory, user signature row, and EEPROM, and write the lock bits to a more secure setting. Application code in the application section can read from the flash, user signature row, production signature row, and fuses, and read and write the EEPROM. 30.11.1 Flash Programming The boot loader support provides a real read-while-write self-programming mechanism for uploading new program code by the device itself. This feature allows flexible application software updates controlled by the device using a boot loader application that reside in the boot loader section in the flash. The boot loader can use any available communication interface and associated protocol to read code and write (program) that code into the flash memory, or read out the program memory code. It has the capability to write into the entire flash, including the boot loader section. The boot loader can thus modify itself, and it can also erase itself from the flash if the feature is not needed anymore. 30.11.1.1 Application and Boot Loader Sections The application and boot loader sections in the flash are different when it comes to self-programming. z When erasing or writing a page located inside the application section, the boot loader section can be read during the operation, and thus the CPU can run and execute code from the boot loader section z When erasing or writing a page located inside the boot loader section, the CPU is halted during the entire operation, and code cannot execute The user signature row section has the same properties as the boot loader section. Table 30-1. Summary of self-programming functionality. 30.11.1.2 Addressing the Flash The Z-pointer is used to hold the flash memory address for read and write access. For more details on the Z-pointer, refer to “The X-, Y-, and Z- Registers” on page 11. Since the flash is word accessed and organized in pages, the Z-pointer can be treated as having two sections. The leastsignificant bits address the words within a page, while the most-significant bits address the page within the flash. This is shown in Figure 30-1 on page 380. The word address in the page (FWORD) is held by the bits [WORDMSB:1] in the Zpointer. The remaining bits [PAGEMSB:WORDMSB+1] in the Z-pointer hold the flash page address (FPAGE). Together FWORD and FPAGE holds an absolute address to a word in the flash. Section being Addressed during Programming Section that can be Read during Programming CPU halted? Application section Boot loader section No Boot loader section None Yes User signature row section None Yes XMEGA B [MANUAL] 380 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 For flash read operations (ELPM and LPM), one byte is read at a time. For this, the least-significant bit (bit 0) in the Zpointer is used to select the low byte or high byte in the word address. If this bit is 0, the low byte is read, and if this bit is 1 the high byte is read. The size of FWORD and FPAGE will depend on the page and flash size in the device. Refer to each device’s datasheet for details. Once a programming operation is initiated, the address is latched and the Z-pointer can be updated and used for other operations. Figure 30-1. Flash addressing for self-programming. 30.11.2 NVM Flash Commands The NVM commands that can be used for accessing the flash program memory, signature row and production signature row are listed in Table 30-2. For self-programming of the flash, the trigger for action-triggered commands is to set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register (CMDEX). The read-triggered commands are triggered by executing the (E)LPM instruction (LPM). The writetriggered commands are triggered by executing the SPM instruction (SPM). The Change Protected column indicates whether the trigger is protected by the configuration change protection (CCP) or not. This is a special sequence to write/execute the trigger during self-programming. For more details, refer to “Configuration Change Protection” on page 13. CCP is not required for external programming. The two last columns show the address pointer used for addressing and the source/destination data register. Section 30.11.1.1 on page 379 through Section 30.11.2.14 on page 384 explain in detail the algorithm for each NVM operation.

Flash self-programming commands. Notes: 1. The flash range CRC command used byte addressing of the flash. 2. Will depend on the flash section (application or boot loader) that is actually addressed. 3. This command is qualified with the lock bits, and requires that the boot lock bits are unprogrammed. 4. When using a command that changes the normal behavior of the LPM command; READ_USER_SIG_ROW and READ_CALIB_ROW; it is recommended to disable interrupts to ensure correct execution of the LPM instruction. 5. For consistency the name Calibration Row has been renamed to Production Signature Row throughout the document. 30.11.2.1 Read Flash The (E)LPM instruction is used to read one byte from the flash memory. 1. Load the Z-pointer with the byte address to read. 2. Load the NVM command register (NVM CMD) with the no operation command. 3. Execute the LPM instruction. The destination register will be loaded during the execution of the LPM instruction.

Load the NVM CMD with the erase flash page buffer command. 2. Set the command execute bit (NVMEX) in the NVM control register A (NVM CTRLA). This requires the timed CCP sequence during self-programming. The NVM busy (BUSY) flag in the NVM status register (NVM STATUS) will be set until the page buffer is erased. 30.11.2.3 Load Flash Page Buffer The load flash page buffer command is used to load one word of data into the flash page buffer. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with the load flash page buffer command. 2. Load the Z-pointer with the word address to write. 3. Load the data word to be written into the R1:R0 registers. 4. Execute the SPM instruction. The SPM instruction is not protected when performing a flash page buffer load. Repeat step 2-4 until the complete flash page buffer is loaded. Unloaded locations will have the value 0xFFFF. 30.11.2.4 Erase Flash Page The erase flash page command is used to erase one page in the flash. 1. Load the Z-pointer with the flash page address to erase. The page address must be written to FPAGE. Other bits in the Z-pointer will be ignored during this operation. 2. Load the NVM CMD register with the erase flash page command. 3. Execute the SPM instruction. This requires the timed CCP sequence during self-programming. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the erase operation is finished. The flash section busy (FBUSY) flag is set as long the flash is busy, and the application section cannot be accessed. 30.11.2.5 Write Flash Page The write flash page command is used to write the flash page buffer into one flash page in the flash. 1. Load the Z-pointer with the flash page to write. The page address must be written to FPAGE. Other bits in the Zpointer will be ignored during this operation. 2. Load the NVM CMD register with the write flash page command. 3. Execute the SPM instruction. This requires the timed CCP sequence during self-programming. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the write operation is finished. The FBUSY flag is set as long the flash is busy, and the application section cannot be accessed. 30.11.2.6 Flash Range CRC The flash range CRC command can be used to verify the content in an address range in flash after a self-programming. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with the flash range CRC command. 2. Load the start byte address in the NVM address register (NVM ADDR). 3. Load the end byte address in NVM data register (NVM DATA). 4. Set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register. This requires the timed CCP sequence during self-programming. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set, and the CPU is halted during the execution of the command. The CRC checksum will be available in the NVM DATA register. In order to use the flash range CRC command, all the boot lock bits must be unprogrammed (no locks).

For self-programming of the fuses and lock bits, the trigger for action-triggered commands is to set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register (CMDEX). The read-triggered commands are triggered by executing the (E)LPM instruction (LPM). The write-triggered commands are triggered by a executing the SPM instruction (SPM). The Change Protected column indicates whether the trigger is protected by the configuration change protection (CCP) during self-programming or not. The last two columns show the address pointer used for addressing and the source/destination data register. Section 30.11.3.1 on page 385 through Section 30.11.3.2 on page 385 explain in detail the algorithm for each NVM operation. Table 30-3. Fuse and lock bit commands.

Load the NVM DATA0 register with the new lock bit value. 2. Load the NVM CMD register with the write lock bit command. 3. Set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register. This requires the timed CCP sequence during self-programming. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the command is finished. The CPU is halted during the complete execution of the command. This command can be executed from both the boot loader section and the application section. The EEPROM and flash page buffers are automatically erased when the lock bits are written. 30.11.3.2 Read Fuses The read fuses command is used to read the fuses from software. 1. Load the NVM ADDR register with the address of the fuse byte to read. 2. Load the NVM CMD register with the read fuses command. 3. Set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register. This requires the timed CCP sequence during self-programming. The result will be available in the NVM DATA0 register. The CPU is halted during the complete execution of the command. 30.11.4 EEPROM Programming The EEPROM can be read and written from application code in any part of the flash. Its is both byte and page accessible. This means that either one byte or one page can be written to the EEPROM at once. One byte is read from the EEPROM during a read. 30.11.4.1 Addressing the EEPROM The EEPROM can be accessed through the NVM controller (I/O mapped), similar to accessing the flash program memory, or it can be memory mapped into the data memory space to be accessed similar to SRAM. When accessing the EEPROM through the NVM controller, the NVM address (ADDR) register is used to address the EEPROM, while the NVM data (DATA) register is used to store or load EEPROM data. For EEPROM page programming, the ADDR register can be treated as having two sections. The least-significant bits address the bytes within a page, while the most-significant bits address the page within the EEPROM. This is shown in Figure 30-2 on page 386. The byte address in the page (E2BYTE) is held by the bits [BYTEMSB:0] in the ADDR register. The remaining bits [PAGEMSB:BYTEMSB+1] in the ADDR register hold the EEPROM page address (E2PAGE). Together E2BYTE and E2PAGE hold an absolute address to a byte in the EEPROM. The size of E2WORD and E2PAGE will depend on the page and flash size in the device. Refer to the device datasheet for details on this. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 386 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 30-2. I/O mapped EEPROM addressing. When EEPROM memory mapping is enabled, loading a data byte into the EEPROM page buffer can be performed through direct or indirect store instructions. Only the least-significant bits of the EEPROM address are used to determine locations within the page buffer, but the complete memory mapped EEPROM address is always required to ensure correct address mapping. Reading from the EEPROM can be done directly using direct or indirect load instructions. When a memory mapped EEPROM page buffer load operation is performed, the CPU is halted for two cycles before the next instruction is executed. When the EEPROM is memory mapped, the EEPROM page buffer load and EEPROM read functionality from the NVM controller are disabled. 30.11.5 NVM EEPROM Commands The NVM flash commands that can be used for accessing the EEPROM through the NVM controller are listed in Table 30-4. For self-programming of the EEPROM, the trigger for action-triggered commands is to set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register (CMDEX). The read-triggered command is triggered by reading the NVM DATA0 register (DATA0). The Change Protected column indicates whether the trigger is protected by the configuration change protection (CCP) during self-programming or not. CCP is not required for external programming. The last two columns show the address pointer used for addressing and the source/destination data register. Section 30.11.5.1 on page 387 through Section 30.11.5.7 on page 388 explain in detail the algorithm for each EEPROM operation. Table 30-4. EEPROM self-programming commands.

This can be done by both in-system or in mass production programming. For external programming, the device is accessed through the PDI and PDI controller, and using either the JTAG or PDI physical connection. For details on PDI and JTAG and how to enable and use the physical interface, refer to “Program and Debug Interface” on page 361. The remainder of this section assumes that the correct physical connection to the PDI is enabled. Doing this all data and program memory spaces are mapped into the linear PDI memory space. Figure 30-3 on page 389 shows the PDI memory space and the base address for each memory space in the device. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 389 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Figure 30-3. Memory map for PDI accessing the data and program memories. 30.12.1 Enabling External Programming Interface NVM programming from the PDI requires enabling using the following steps: 1. Load the RESET register in the PDI with 0x59. 2. Load the NVM key in the PDI. 3. Poll NVMEN in the PDI status register (PDI STATUS) until NVMEN is set. When the NVMEN bit in the PDI STATUS register is set, the NVM interface is enabled and active from the PDI. 30.12.2 NVM Programming When the PDI NVM interface is enabled, all memories in the device are memory mapped in the PDI address space. The PDI controller does not need to access the NVM controller's address or data registers, but the NVM controller must be loaded with the correct command (i.e., to read from any NVM, the controller must be loaded with the NVM read command FLASH_BASE = 0x0800000 EPPROM_BASE = 0x08C0000 FUSE_BASE = 0x08F0020 DATAMEM_BASE = 0x1000000 APP_BASE = FLASH_BASE BOOT_BASE = FLASH_BASE + SIZE_APPL PROD_SIGNATURE_BASE = 0x008E0200 USER_SIGNATURE_BASE = 0x008E0400 0x0000000 FUSES APPLICATION SECTION 16 MB BOOT SECTION 0x0800000 0x08F0020 TOP=0x1FFFFFF EEPROM 0x08E0200 SIGNATURE ROW 0x08C0000 0x08C1000 DATAMEM (mapped IO/SRAM) 16 MB 0x1000000 1 BYTE XMEGA B [MANUAL] 390 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 before loading data from the PDIBUS address space). For the reminder of this section, all references to reading and writing data or program memory addresses from the PDI refer to the memory map shown in Figure 30-3 on page 389. The PDI uses byte addressing, and hence all memory addresses must be byte addresses. When filling the flash or EEPROM page buffers, only the least-significant bits of the address are used to determine locations within the page buffer. Still, the complete memory mapped address for the flash or EEPROM page is required to ensure correct address mapping. During programming (page erase and page write) when the NVM is busy, the NVM is blocked for reading. 30.12.3 NVM Commands The NVM commands that can be used for accessing the NVM memories from external programming are listed in Table 30-5 on page 390. This is a superset of the commands available for self-programming. For external programming, the trigger for action-triggered commands is to set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register (CMDEX). The read-triggered commands are triggered by a direct or indirect load instruction (LDS or LD) from the PDI (PDI read). The write-triggered commands are triggered by a direct or indirect store instruction (STS or ST) from the PDI (PDI write). “ Chip Erase” on page 391 through “ Write Fuse/ Lock Bit” on page 393 explain in detail the algorithm for each NVM operation. The commands are protected by the lock bits, and if read and write lock is set, only the chip erase and flash CRC commands are available. Table 30-5. NVM commands available for external programming.

If the EESAVE fuse is programmed, the EEPROM is preserved during chip erase. 2. For consistency the name Calibration Row has been renamed to Production Signature Row throughout the document. 30.12.3.1 Chip Erase The chip erase command is used to erase the flash program memory, EEPROM and lock bits. Erasing of the EEPROM depends on EESAVE fuse setting. Refer to “FUSEBYTE5 – Fuse Byte 5” on page 32 for details. The user signature row, production signature (calibration) row, and fuses are not affected. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with the chip erase command. 2. Set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register. This requires the timed CCP sequence during self-programming. Once this operation starts, the PDI bus between the PDI controller and the NVM is disabled, and the NVMEN bit in the PDI STATUS register is cleared until the operation is finished. Poll the NVMEN bit until this is set, indicating that the PDI bus is enabled. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the operation is finished. 30.12.3.2 Read NVM The read NVM command is used to read the flash, EEPROM, fuses, and signature and production signature (calibration) row sections. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with the read NVM command. 2. Read the selected memory address by executing a PDI read operation. 0x2D Erase and write boot loader section page PDI write N Y 0x39 Boot loader section CRC NVMAA Y Y Production Signature (Calibration)(2) and User Signature Sections 0x01 Read user signature row PDI read N N 0x18 Erase user signature row PDI write N Y 0x1A Write user signature row PDI write N Y 0x02 Read calibration row PDI read N N Fuses and Lock Bits 0x07 Read fuse PDI read N N 0x4C Write fuse PDI write N Y 0x08 Write lock bits CMDEX Y Y EEPROM Page Buffer 0x33 Load EEPROM page buffer PDI write N N 0x36 Erase EEPROM page buffer CMDEX Y Y EEPROM 0x30 Erase EEPROM CMDEX Y Y 0x32 Erase EEPROM page PDI write N Y 0x34 Write EEPROM page PDI write N Y 0x35 Erase and write EEPROM page PDI write N Y 0x06 Read EEPROM PDI read N N CMD[6:0] Commands / Operation Trigger Change Protected NVM Busy XMEGA B [MANUAL] 392 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 Dedicated read EEPROM, read fuse, read signature row, and read production signature (calibration) row commands are also available for the various memory sections. The algorithm for these commands are the same as for the read NVM command. 30.12.3.3 Erase Page Buffer The erase flash page buffer and erase EEPROM page buffer commands are used to erase the flash and EEPROM page buffers. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with the erase flash/EEPROM page buffer command. 2. Set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the operation is completed. 30.12.3.4 Load Page Buffer The load flash page buffer and load EEPROM page buffer commands are used to load one byte of data into the flash and EEPROM page buffers. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with the load flash/EEPROM page buffer command. 2. Write the selected memory address by doing a PDI write operation. Since the flash page buffer is word accessed and the PDI uses byte addressing, the PDI must write the flash page buffer in the correct order. For the write operation, the low byte of the word location must be written before the high byte. The low byte is then written into the temporary register. The PDI then writes the high byte of the word location, and the low byte is then written into the word location page buffer in the same clock cycle. The PDI interface is automatically halted before the next PDI instruction can be executed. 30.12.3.5 Erase Page The erase application section page, erase boot loader section page, erase user signature row, and erase EEPROM page commands are used to erase one page in the selected memory space. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with erase application section/boot loader section/user signature row/EEPROM page command. 2. Set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the operation is finished. 30.12.3.6 Write Page The write application section page, write boot loader section page, write user signature row, and write EEPROM page commands are used to write a loaded flash/EEPROM page buffer into the selected memory space. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with write application section/boot loader section/user signature row/EEPROM page command. 2. Write the selected page by doing a PDI write. The page is written by addressing any byte location within the page. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the operation is finished. 30.12.3.7 Erase and Write Page The erase and write application section page, erase and write boot loader section page, and erase and write EEPROM page commands are used to erase one page and then write a loaded flash/EEPROM page buffer into that page in the selected memory space in one atomic operation. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with erase and write application section/boot loader section/user signature row/EEPROM page command. 2. Write the selected page by doing a PDI write. The page is written by addressing any byte location within the page. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the operation is finished. 30.12.3.8 Erase Application/ Boot Loader/ EEPROM Section The erase application section, erase boot loader section, and erase EEPROM section commands are used to erase the complete selected section. XMEGA B [MANUAL] 393 Atmel-8291C-AVR-XMEGA B -09/2014 1. Load the NVM CMD register with Erase Application/ Boot/ EEPROM Section command 2. Set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the operation is finished. 30.12.3.9 Application / Boot Section CRC The application section CRC and boot loader section CRC commands can be used to verify the content of the selected section after programming. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with application/ boot loader section CRC command. 2. Set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register. This requires the timed CCP sequence during self-programming. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the operation is finished. The CRC checksum will be available in the NVM DATA register. 30.12.3.10 Flash CRC The flash CRC command can be used to verify the content of the flash program memory after programming. The command can be executed independently of the lock bit state. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with flash CRC command. 2. Set the CMDEX bit in the NVM CTRLA register. Once this operation starts, the PDI bus between the PDI controller and the NVM is disabled, and the NVMEN bit in the PDI STATUS register is cleared until the operation is finished. Poll the NVMEN bit until this is set again, indicting the PDI bus is enabled. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the operation is finished. The CRC checksum will be available in the NVM DATA register. 30.12.3.11 Write Fuse/ Lock Bit The write fuse and write lock bit commands are used to write the fuses and the lock bits to a more secure setting. 1. Load the NVM CMD register with the write fuse/ lock bit command. 2. Write the selected fuse or lock bits by doing a PDI write operation. The BUSY flag in the NVM STATUS register will be set until the command is finished. For lock bit write, the lock bit write command can also be used. 30.13 Register Description Refer to “Register Description – NVM Controller” on page 26 for a complete register description of the NVM controller.

AVR32 UC is a highperformance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core, designed for cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular emphasis on low power consumption, high code density, and high performance. The processor implements a Memory Protection Unit (MPU) and a fast and flexible interrupt controller for supporting modern and real-time operating systems. The Secure Access Unit (SAU) is used together with the MPU to provide the required security and integrity. Higher computation capability is achieved using a rich set of DSP instructions. The ATUC64/128/256L3/4U embeds state-of-the-art picoPower technology for ultra-low power consumption. Combined power control techniques are used to bring active current consumption down to 174µA/MHz, and leakage down to 220nA while still retaining a bank of backup registers. The device allows a wide range of trade-offs between functionality and power consumption, giving the user the ability to reach the lowest possible power consumption with the feature set required for the application. The Peripheral Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller enables data transfers between peripherals and memories without processor involvement. The Peripheral DMA controller drastically reduces processing overhead when transferring continuous and large data streams. The ATUC64/128/256L3/4U incorporates on-chip Flash and SRAM memories for secure and fast access. The FlashVault technology allows secure libraries to be programmed into the device. The secure libraries can be executed while the CPU is in Secure State, but not read by non-secure software in the device. The device can thus be shipped to end customers, who will be able to program their own code into the device to access the secure libraries, but without risk of compromising the proprietary secure code. The External Interrupt Controller (EIC) allows pins to be configured as external interrupts. Each external interrupt has its own interrupt request and can be individually masked. The Peripheral Event System allows peripherals to receive, react to, and send peripheral events without CPU intervention. Asynchronous interrupts allow advanced peripheral operation in low power sleep modes. The Power Manager (PM) improves design flexibility and security. The Power Manager supports SleepWalking functionality, by which a module can be selectively activated based on peripheral events, even in sleep modes where the module clock is stopped. Power monitoring is supported by on-chip Power-on Reset (POR), Brown-out Detector (BOD), and Supply Monitor (SM). The device features several oscillators, such as Phase Locked Loop (PLL), Digital Frequency Locked Loop (DFLL), Oscillator 0 (OSC0), and system RC oscillator (RCSYS). Either of these oscillators can be used as source for the system clock. The DFLL is a programmable internal oscillator from 20 to 150MHz. It can be tuned to a high accuracy if an accurate reference clock is running, e.g. the 32KHz crystal oscillator. The Watchdog Timer (WDT) will reset the device unless it is periodically serviced by the software. This allows the device to recover from a condition that has caused the system to be unstable. The Asynchronous Timer (AST) combined with the 32KHz crystal oscillator supports powerful real-time clock capabilities, with a maximum timeout of up to 136 years. The AST can operate in counter or calendar mode. 4 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The Frequency Meter (FREQM) allows accurate measuring of a clock frequency by comparing it to a known reference clock. The Full-speed USB 2.0 device interface (USBC) supports several USB classes at the same time, thanks to the rich end-point configuration. The device includes six identical 16-bit Timer/Counter (TC) channels. Each channel can be independently programmed to perform frequency measurement, event counting, interval measurement, pulse generation, delay timing, and pulse width modulation. The Pulse Width Modulation controller (PWMA) provides 12-bit PWM channels which can be synchronized and controlled from a common timer. 36 PWM channels are available, enabling applications that require multiple PWM outputs, such as LCD backlight control. The PWM channels can operate independently, with duty cycles set individually, or in interlinked mode, with multiple channels changed at the same time. The ATUC64/128/256L3/4U also features many communication interfaces, like USART, SPI, and TWI, for communication intensive applications. The USART supports different communication modes, like SPI Mode and LIN Mode. A general purpose 8-channel ADC is provided, as well as eight analog comparators (AC). The ADC can operate in 10-bit mode at full speed or in enhanced mode at reduced speed, offering up to 12-bit resolution. The ADC also provides an internal temperature sensor input channel. The analog comparators can be paired to detect when the sensing voltage is within or outside the defined reference window. The Capacitive Touch (CAT) module senses touch on external capacitive touch sensors, using the QTouch technology. Capacitive touch sensors use no external mechanical components, unlike normal push buttons, and therefore demand less maintenance in the user application. The CAT module allows up to 17 touch sensors, or up to 16 by 8 matrix sensors to be interfaced. All touch sensors can be configured to operate autonomously without software interaction, allowing wakeup from sleep modes when activated. Atmel offers the QTouch library for embedding capacitive touch buttons, sliders, and wheels functionality into AVR microcontrollers. The patented charge-transfer signal acquisition offers robust sensing and includes fully debounced reporting of touch keys as well as Adjacent Key Suppression® (AKS®) technology for unambiguous detection of key events. The easy-to-use QTouch Suite toolchain allows you to explore, develop, and debug your own touch applications. The Audio Bitstream DAC (ABDACB) converts a 16-bit sample value to a digital bitstream with an average value proportional to the sample value. Two channels are supported, making the ABDAC particularly suitable for stereo audio. The Inter-IC Sound Controller (IISC) provides a 5-bit wide, bidirectional, synchronous, digital audio link with external audio devices. The controller is compliant with the Inter-IC Sound (I2S) bus specification. The ATUC64/128/256L3/4U integrates a class 2+ Nexus 2.0 On-chip Debug (OCD) System, with non-intrusive real-time trace and full-speed read/write memory access, in addition to basic runtime control. The NanoTrace interface enables trace feature for aWire- or JTAG-based debuggers. The single-pin aWire interface allows all features available through the JTAG interface to be accessed through the RESET pin, allowing the JTAG pins to be used for GPIO or peripherals. 5 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 2.

See Section 6. on page 39 3.4 I/O Line Considerations 3.4.1 JTAG Pins The JTAG is enabled if TCK is low while the RESET_N pin is released. The TCK, TMS, and TDI pins have pull-up resistors when JTAG is enabled. The TCK pin always has pull-up enabled during reset. The TDO pin is an output, driven at VDDIO, and has no pull-up resistor. The JTAG pins can be used as GPIO pins and multiplexed with peripherals when the JTAG is disabled. Please refer to Section 3.2.3 on page 13 for the JTAG port connections. 3.4.2 PA00 Note that PA00 is multiplexed with TCK. PA00 GPIO function must only be used as output in the application. 3.4.3 RESET_N Pin The RESET_N pin is a schmitt input and integrates a permanent pull-up resistor to VDDIN. As the product integrates a power-on reset detector, the RESET_N pin can be left unconnected in case no reset from the system needs to be applied to the product. The RESET_N pin is also used for the aWire debug protocol. When the pin is used for debugging, it must not be driven by external circuitry. 3.4.4 TWI Pins PA21/PB04/PB05 When these pins are used for TWI, the pins are open-drain outputs with slew-rate limitation and inputs with spike filtering. When used as GPIO pins or used for other peripherals, the pins have the same characteristics as other GPIO pins. Selected pins are also SMBus compliant (refer to Section on page 10). As required by the SMBus specification, these pins provide no leakage path to ground when the ATUC64/128/256L3/4U is powered down. This allows other devices on the SMBus to continue communicating even though the ATUC64/128/256L3/4U is not powered. After reset a TWI function is selected on these pins instead of the GPIO. Please refer to the GPIO Module Configuration chapter for details.

When used as GPIO pins or used for other peripherals, the pins have the same characteristics as other GPIO pins. After reset a TWI function is selected on these pins instead of the GPIO. Please refer to the GPIO Module Configuration chapter for details. 3.4.6 GPIO Pins All the I/O lines integrate a pull-up resistor Programming of this pull-up resistor is performed independently for each I/O line through the GPIO Controllers. After reset, I/O lines default as inputs with pull-up resistors disabled, except PA00 which has the pull-up resistor enabled. PA20 selects SCIF-RC32OUT (GPIO Function F) as default enabled after reset. 3.4.7 High-drive Pins The six pins PA02, PA06, PA08, PA09, PB01, and PB15 have high-drive output capabilities. Refer to Section 35. on page 897 for electrical characteristics. 3.4.8 USB Pins PB13/PB14 When these pins are used for USB, the pins are behaving according to the USB specification. When used as GPIO pins or used for other peripherals, the pins have the same behaviour as other normal I/O pins, but the characteristics are different. Refer to Section 35. on page 897 for electrical characteristics. To be able to use the USB I/O the VDDIN power supply must be 3.3V nominal. 3.4.9 RC32OUT Pin 3.4.9.1 Clock output at startup After power-up, the clock generated by the 32kHz RC oscillator (RC32K) will be output on PA20, even when the device is still reset by the Power-On Reset Circuitry. This clock can be used by the system to start other devices or to clock a switching regulator to rise the power supply voltage up to an acceptable value. The clock will be available on PA20, but will be disabled if one of the following conditions are true: • PA20 is configured to use a GPIO function other than F (SCIF-RC32OUT) • PA20 is configured as a General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) • The bit FRC32 in the Power Manager PPCR register is written to zero (refer to the Power Manager chapter) The maximum amplitude of the clock signal will be defined by VDDIN. Once the RC32K output on PA20 is disabled it can never be enabled again. 3.4.9.2 XOUT32_2 function PA20 selects RC32OUT as default enabled after reset. This function is not automatically disabled when the user enables the XOUT32_2 function on PA20. This disturbs the oscillator and may result in the wrong frequency. To avoid this, RC32OUT must be disabled when XOUT32_2 is enabled. 20 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 3.4.10 ADC Input Pins These pins are regular I/O pins powered from the VDDIO. However, when these pins are used for ADC inputs, the voltage applied to the pin must not exceed 1.98V. Internal circuitry ensures that the pin cannot be used as an analog input pin when the I/O drives to VDD. When the pins are not used for ADC inputs, the pins may be driven to the full I/O voltage range. 21 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 4. Processor and Architecture Rev: 2.1.2.0 This chapter gives an overview of the AVR32UC CPU. AVR32UC is an implementation of the AVR32 architecture. A summary of the programming model, instruction set, and MPU is presented. For further details, see the AVR32 Architecture Manual and the AVR32UC Technical Reference Manual. 4.1 Features • 32-bit load/store AVR32A RISC architecture – 15 general-purpose 32-bit registers – 32-bit Stack Pointer, Program Counter and Link Register reside in register file – Fully orthogonal instruction set – Privileged and unprivileged modes enabling efficient and secure operating systems – Innovative instruction set together with variable instruction length ensuring industry leading code density – DSP extension with saturating arithmetic, and a wide variety of multiply instructions • 3-stage pipeline allowing one instruction per clock cycle for most instructions – Byte, halfword, word, and double word memory access – Multiple interrupt priority levels • MPU allows for operating systems with memory protection • Secure State for supporting FlashVault technology 4.2 AVR32 Architecture AVR32 is a new, high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor architecture, designed for costsensitive embedded applications, with particular emphasis on low power consumption and high code density. In addition, the instruction set architecture has been tuned to allow a variety of microarchitectures, enabling the AVR32 to be implemented as low-, mid-, or high-performance processors. AVR32 extends the AVR family into the world of 32- and 64-bit applications. Through a quantitative approach, a large set of industry recognized benchmarks has been compiled and analyzed to achieve the best code density in its class. In addition to lowering the memory requirements, a compact code size also contributes to the core’s low power characteristics. The processor supports byte and halfword data types without penalty in code size and performance. Memory load and store operations are provided for byte, halfword, word, and double word data with automatic sign- or zero extension of halfword and byte data. The C-compiler is closely linked to the architecture and is able to exploit code optimization features, both for size and speed. In order to reduce code size to a minimum, some instructions have multiple addressing modes. As an example, instructions with immediates often have a compact format with a smaller immediate, and an extended format with a larger immediate. In this way, the compiler is able to use the format giving the smallest code size. Another feature of the instruction set is that frequently used instructions, like add, have a compact format with two operands as well as an extended format with three operands. The larger format increases performance, allowing an addition and a data move in the same instruction in a 22 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U single cycle. Load and store instructions have several different formats in order to reduce code size and speed up execution. The register file is organized as sixteen 32-bit registers and includes the Program Counter, the Link Register, and the Stack Pointer. In addition, register R12 is designed to hold return values from function calls and is used implicitly by some instructions. 4.3 The AVR32UC CPU The AVR32UC CPU targets low- and medium-performance applications, and provides an advanced On-Chip Debug (OCD) system, no caches, and a Memory Protection Unit (MPU). Java acceleration hardware is not implemented. AVR32UC provides three memory interfaces, one High Speed Bus master for instruction fetch, one High Speed Bus master for data access, and one High Speed Bus slave interface allowing other bus masters to access data RAMs internal to the CPU. Keeping data RAMs internal to the CPU allows fast access to the RAMs, reduces latency, and guarantees deterministic timing. Also, power consumption is reduced by not needing a full High Speed Bus access for memory accesses. A dedicated data RAM interface is provided for communicating with the internal data RAMs. A local bus interface is provided for connecting the CPU to device-specific high-speed systems, such as floating-point units and I/O controller ports. This local bus has to be enabled by writing a one to the LOCEN bit in the CPUCR system register. The local bus is able to transfer data between the CPU and the local bus slave in a single clock cycle. The local bus has a dedicated memory range allocated to it, and data transfers are performed using regular load and store instructions. Details on which devices that are mapped into the local bus space is given in the CPU Local Bus section in the Memories chapter. Figure 4-1 on page 23 displays the contents of AVR32UC. 23 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 4-1. Overview of the AVR32UC CPU 4.3.1 Pipeline Overview AVR32UC has three pipeline stages, Instruction Fetch (IF), Instruction Decode (ID), and Instruction Execute (EX). The EX stage is split into three parallel subsections, one arithmetic/logic (ALU) section, one multiply (MUL) section, and one load/store (LS) section. Instructions are issued and complete in order. Certain operations require several clock cycles to complete, and in this case, the instruction resides in the ID and EX stages for the required number of clock cycles. Since there is only three pipeline stages, no internal data forwarding is required, and no data dependencies can arise in the pipeline. Figure 4-2 on page 24 shows an overview of the AVR32UC pipeline stages.

The AVR32UC Pipeline 4.3.2 AVR32A Microarchitecture Compliance AVR32UC implements an AVR32A microarchitecture. The AVR32A microarchitecture is targeted at cost-sensitive, lower-end applications like smaller microcontrollers. This microarchitecture does not provide dedicated hardware registers for shadowing of register file registers in interrupt contexts. Additionally, it does not provide hardware registers for the return address registers and return status registers. Instead, all this information is stored on the system stack. This saves chip area at the expense of slower interrupt handling. 4.3.2.1 Interrupt Handling Upon interrupt initiation, registers R8-R12 are automatically pushed to the system stack. These registers are pushed regardless of the priority level of the pending interrupt. The return address and status register are also automatically pushed to stack. The interrupt handler can therefore use R8-R12 freely. Upon interrupt completion, the old R8-R12 registers and status register are restored, and execution continues at the return address stored popped from stack. The stack is also used to store the status register and return address for exceptions and scall. Executing the rete or rets instruction at the completion of an exception or system call will pop this status register and continue execution at the popped return address. 4.3.2.2 Java Support AVR32UC does not provide Java hardware acceleration. 4.3.2.3 Memory Protection The MPU allows the user to check all memory accesses for privilege violations. If an access is attempted to an illegal memory address, the access is aborted and an exception is taken. The MPU in AVR32UC is specified in the AVR32UC Technical Reference manual. 4.3.2.4 Unaligned Reference Handling AVR32UC does not support unaligned accesses, except for doubleword accesses. AVR32UC is able to perform word-aligned st.d and ld.d. Any other unaligned memory access will cause an IF ID ALU MUL Regfile write Prefetch unit Decode unit ALU unit Multiply unit Load-store unit LS Regfile Read 25 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U address exception. Doubleword-sized accesses with word-aligned pointers will automatically be performed as two word-sized accesses. The following table shows the instructions with support for unaligned addresses. All other instructions require aligned addresses. 4.3.2.5 Unimplemented Instructions The following instructions are unimplemented in AVR32UC, and will cause an Unimplemented Instruction Exception if executed: • All SIMD instructions • All coprocessor instructions if no coprocessors are present • retj, incjosp, popjc, pushjc • tlbr, tlbs, tlbw • cache 4.3.2.6 CPU and Architecture Revision Three major revisions of the AVR32UC CPU currently exist. The device described in this datasheet uses CPU revision 3. The Architecture Revision field in the CONFIG0 system register identifies which architecture revision is implemented in a specific device. AVR32UC CPU revision 3 is fully backward-compatible with revisions 1 and 2, ie. code compiled for revision 1 or 2 is binary-compatible with revision 3 CPUs. Table 4-1.

Figure 4-3. The AVR32UC Register File 4.4.2 Status Register Configuration The Status Register (SR) is split into two halfwords, one upper and one lower, see Figure 4-4 and Figure 4-5. The lower word contains the C, Z, N, V, and Q condition code flags and the R, T, and L bits, while the upper halfword contains information about the mode and state the processor executes in.

The Status Register Low Halfword 4.4.3 Processor States 4.4.3.1 Normal RISC State The AVR32 processor supports several different execution contexts as shown in Table 4-2. Mode changes can be made under software control, or can be caused by external interrupts or exception processing. A mode can be interrupted by a higher priority mode, but never by one with lower priority. Nested exceptions can be supported with a minimal software overhead. When running an operating system on the AVR32, user processes will typically execute in the application mode. The programs executed in this mode are restricted from executing certain instructions. Furthermore, most system registers together with the upper halfword of the status register cannot be accessed. Protected memory areas are also not available. All other operating modes are privileged and are collectively called System Modes. They have full access to all privileged and unprivileged resources. After a reset, the processor will be in supervisor mode. 4.4.3.2 Debug State The AVR32 can be set in a debug state, which allows implementation of software monitor routines that can read out and alter system information for use during application development. This implies that all system and application registers, including the status registers and program counters, are accessible in debug state. The privileged instructions are also available. All interrupt levels are by default disabled when debug state is entered, but they can individually be switched on by the monitor routine by clearing the respective mask bit in the status register.

Debug state is exited by the retd instruction. 4.4.3.3 Secure State The AVR32 can be set in a secure state, that allows a part of the code to execute in a state with higher security levels. The rest of the code can not access resources reserved for this secure code. Secure State is used to implement FlashVault technology. Refer to the AVR32UC Technical Reference Manual for details. 4.4.4 System Registers The system registers are placed outside of the virtual memory space, and are only accessible using the privileged mfsr and mtsr instructions. The table below lists the system registers specified in the AVR32 architecture, some of which are unused in AVR32UC.

System Registers (Continued) Reg # Address Name Function 30 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 4.5 Exceptions and Interrupts In the AVR32 architecture, events are used as a common term for exceptions and interrupts. AVR32UC incorporates a powerful event handling scheme. The different event sources, like Illegal Op-code and interrupt requests, have different priority levels, ensuring a well-defined behavior when multiple events are received simultaneously. Additionally, pending events of a higher priority class may preempt handling of ongoing events of a lower priority class. When an event occurs, the execution of the instruction stream is halted, and execution is passed to an event handler at an address specified in Table 4-4 on page 34. Most of the handlers are placed sequentially in the code space starting at the address specified by EVBA, with four bytes between each handler. This gives ample space for a jump instruction to be placed there, jumping to the event routine itself. A few critical handlers have larger spacing between them, allowing the entire event routine to be placed directly at the address specified by the EVBA-relative offset generated by hardware. All interrupt sources have autovectored interrupt service routine (ISR) addresses. This allows the interrupt controller to directly specify the ISR address as an address 90 360 MPUPSR2 MPU Privilege Select Register region 2 91 364 MPUPSR3 MPU Privilege Select Register region 3 92 368 MPUPSR4 MPU Privilege Select Register region 4 93 372 MPUPSR5 MPU Privilege Select Register region 5 94 376 MPUPSR6 MPU Privilege Select Register region 6 95 380 MPUPSR7 MPU Privilege Select Register region 7 96 384 MPUCRA Unused in this version of AVR32UC 97 388 MPUCRB Unused in this version of AVR32UC 98 392 MPUBRA Unused in this version of AVR32UC 99 396 MPUBRB Unused in this version of AVR32UC 100 400 MPUAPRA MPU Access Permission Register A 101 404 MPUAPRB MPU Access Permission Register B 102 408 MPUCR MPU Control Register 103 412 SS_STATUS Secure State Status Register 104 416 SS_ADRF Secure State Address Flash Register 105 420 SS_ADRR Secure State Address RAM Register 106 424 SS_ADR0 Secure State Address 0 Register 107 428 SS_ADR1 Secure State Address 1 Register 108 432 SS_SP_SYS Secure State Stack Pointer System Register 109 436 SS_SP_APP Secure State Stack Pointer Application Register 110 440 SS_RAR Secure State Return Address Register 111 444 SS_RSR Secure State Return Status Register 112-191 448-764 Reserved Reserved for future use 192-255 768-1020 IMPL IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED Table 4-3. System Registers (Continued) Reg # Address Name Function 31 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U relative to EVBA. The autovector offset has 14 address bits, giving an offset of maximum 16384 bytes. The target address of the event handler is calculated as (EVBA | event_handler_offset), not (EVBA + event_handler_offset), so EVBA and exception code segments must be set up appropriately. The same mechanisms are used to service all different types of events, including interrupt requests, yielding a uniform event handling scheme. An interrupt controller does the priority handling of the interrupts and provides the autovector offset to the CPU. 4.5.1 System Stack Issues Event handling in AVR32UC uses the system stack pointed to by the system stack pointer, SP_SYS, for pushing and popping R8-R12, LR, status register, and return address. Since event code may be timing-critical, SP_SYS should point to memory addresses in the IRAM section, since the timing of accesses to this memory section is both fast and deterministic. The user must also make sure that the system stack is large enough so that any event is able to push the required registers to stack. If the system stack is full, and an event occurs, the system will enter an UNDEFINED state. 4.5.2 Exceptions and Interrupt Requests When an event other than scall or debug request is received by the core, the following actions are performed atomically: 1. The pending event will not be accepted if it is masked. The I3M, I2M, I1M, I0M, EM, and GM bits in the Status Register are used to mask different events. Not all events can be masked. A few critical events (NMI, Unrecoverable Exception, TLB Multiple Hit, and Bus Error) can not be masked. When an event is accepted, hardware automatically sets the mask bits corresponding to all sources with equal or lower priority. This inhibits acceptance of other events of the same or lower priority, except for the critical events listed above. Software may choose to clear some or all of these bits after saving the necessary state if other priority schemes are desired. It is the event source’s responsability to ensure that their events are left pending until accepted by the CPU. 2. When a request is accepted, the Status Register and Program Counter of the current context is stored to the system stack. If the event is an INT0, INT1, INT2, or INT3, registers R8-R12 and LR are also automatically stored to stack. Storing the Status Register ensures that the core is returned to the previous execution mode when the current event handling is completed. When exceptions occur, both the EM and GM bits are set, and the application may manually enable nested exceptions if desired by clearing the appropriate bit. Each exception handler has a dedicated handler address, and this address uniquely identifies the exception source. 3. The Mode bits are set to reflect the priority of the accepted event, and the correct register file bank is selected. The address of the event handler, as shown in Table 4-4 on page 34, is loaded into the Program Counter. The execution of the event handler routine then continues from the effective address calculated. The rete instruction signals the end of the event. When encountered, the Return Status Register and Return Address Register are popped from the system stack and restored to the Status Register and Program Counter. If the rete instruction returns from INT0, INT1, INT2, or INT3, registers R8-R12 and LR are also popped from the system stack. The restored Status Register contains information allowing the core to resume operation in the previous execution mode. This concludes the event handling. 32 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 4.5.3 Supervisor Calls The AVR32 instruction set provides a supervisor mode call instruction. The scall instruction is designed so that privileged routines can be called from any context. This facilitates sharing of code between different execution modes. The scall mechanism is designed so that a minimal execution cycle overhead is experienced when performing supervisor routine calls from timecritical event handlers. The scall instruction behaves differently depending on which mode it is called from. The behaviour is detailed in the instruction set reference. In order to allow the scall routine to return to the correct context, a return from supervisor call instruction, rets, is implemented. In the AVR32UC CPU, scall and rets uses the system stack to store the return address and the status register. 4.5.4 Debug Requests The AVR32 architecture defines a dedicated Debug mode. When a debug request is received by the core, Debug mode is entered. Entry into Debug mode can be masked by the DM bit in the status register. Upon entry into Debug mode, hardware sets the SR.D bit and jumps to the Debug Exception handler. By default, Debug mode executes in the exception context, but with dedicated Return Address Register and Return Status Register. These dedicated registers remove the need for storing this data to the system stack, thereby improving debuggability. The Mode bits in the Status Register can freely be manipulated in Debug mode, to observe registers in all contexts, while retaining full privileges. Debug mode is exited by executing the retd instruction. This returns to the previous context. 4.5.5 Entry Points for Events Several different event handler entry points exist. In AVR32UC, the reset address is 0x80000000. This places the reset address in the boot flash memory area. TLB miss exceptions and scall have a dedicated space relative to EVBA where their event handler can be placed. This speeds up execution by removing the need for a jump instruction placed at the program address jumped to by the event hardware. All other exceptions have a dedicated event routine entry point located relative to EVBA. The handler routine address identifies the exception source directly. AVR32UC uses the ITLB and DTLB protection exceptions to signal a MPU protection violation. ITLB and DTLB miss exceptions are used to signal that an access address did not map to any of the entries in the MPU. TLB multiple hit exception indicates that an access address did map to multiple TLB entries, signalling an error. All interrupt requests have entry points located at an offset relative to EVBA. This autovector offset is specified by an interrupt controller. The programmer must make sure that none of the autovector offsets interfere with the placement of other code. The autovector offset has 14 address bits, giving an offset of maximum 16384 bytes. Special considerations should be made when loading EVBA with a pointer. Due to security considerations, the event handlers should be located in non-writeable flash memory, or optionally in a privileged memory protection region if an MPU is present. If several events occur on the same instruction, they are handled in a prioritized way. The priority ordering is presented in Table 4-4 on page 34. If events occur on several instructions at different locations in the pipeline, the events on the oldest instruction are always handled before any events on any younger instruction, even if the younger instruction has events of higher priority 33 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U than the oldest instruction. An instruction B is younger than an instruction A if it was sent down the pipeline later than A. The addresses and priority of simultaneous events are shown in Table 4-4 on page 34. Some of the exceptions are unused in AVR32UC since it has no MMU, coprocessor interface, or floatingpoint unit. 34 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Table 4-4.

These registers can therefore be reached both by accesses on the Peripheral Bus, and by accesses on the local bus. Mapping these registers on the local bus allows cycle-deterministic toggling of GPIO pins since the CPU and GPIO are the only modules connected to this bus. Also, since the local bus runs at CPU speed, one write or read operation can be performed per clock cycle to the local busmapped GPIO registers. 0xFFFF4400 TWIM0 Two-wire Master Interface - TWIM0 0xFFFF4800 TWIM1 Two-wire Master Interface - TWIM1 0xFFFF4C00 TWIS0 Two-wire Slave Interface - TWIS0 0xFFFF5000 TWIS1 Two-wire Slave Interface - TWIS1 0xFFFF5400 PWMA Pulse Width Modulation Controller - PWMA 0xFFFF5800 TC0 Timer/Counter - TC0 0xFFFF5C00 TC1 Timer/Counter - TC1 0xFFFF6000 ADCIFB ADC Interface - ADCIFB 0xFFFF6400 ACIFB Analog Comparator Interface - ACIFB 0xFFFF6800 CAT Capacitive Touch Module - CAT 0xFFFF6C00 GLOC Glue Logic Controller - GLOC 0xFFFF7000 AW aWire - AW 0xFFFF7400 ABDACB Audio Bitstream DAC - ABDACB 0xFFFF7800 IISC Inter-IC Sound (I2S) Controller - IISC Table 5-3.

Supply and Startup Considerations 6.1 Supply Considerations 6.1.1 Power Supplies The ATUC64/128/256L3/4U has several types of power supply pins: • VDDIO: Powers I/O lines. Voltage is 1.8 to 3.3V nominal. • VDDIN: Powers I/O lines, the USB pins, and the internal regulator. Voltage is 1.8 to 3.3V nominal if USB is not used, and 3.3V nominal when USB is used. • VDDANA: Powers the ADC. Voltage is 1.8V nominal. • VDDCORE: Powers the core, memories, and peripherals. Voltage is 1.8V nominal. The ground pins GND are common to VDDCORE, VDDIO, and VDDIN. The ground pin for VDDANA is GNDANA. When VDDCORE is not connected to VDDIN, the VDDIN voltage must be higher than 1.98V. Refer to Section 35. on page 897 for power consumption on the various supply pins. For decoupling recommendations for the different power supplies, please refer to the schematic checklist. Refer to Section on page 10 for power supply connections for I/O pins. 6.1.2 Voltage Regulator The ATUC64/128/256L3/4U embeds a voltage regulator that converts from 3.3V nominal to 1.8V with a load of up to 60 mA. The regulator supplies the output voltage on VDDCORE. The regulator may only be used to drive internal circuitry in the device. VDDCORE should be externally connected to the 1.8V domains. See Section 6.1.3 for regulator connection figures. Adequate output supply decoupling is mandatory for VDDCORE to reduce ripple and avoid oscillations. The best way to achieve this is to use two capacitors in parallel between VDDCORE and GND as close to the device as possible. Please refer to Section 35.8 on page 911 for decoupling capacitors values and regulator characteristics. Figure 6-1. Supply Decoupling. The voltage regulator can be turned off in the shutdown mode to power down the core logic and keep a small part of the system powered in order to reduce power consumption. To enter this mode the 3.3V supply mode, with 1.8V regulated I/O lines power supply configuration must be used. 3.3V 1.8V VDDIN VDDCORE 1.8V Regulator CIN1 COUT1 COUT2 C IN3 IN2 C 40 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 6.1.3 Regulator Connection The ATUC64/128/256L3/4U supports three power supply configurations: • 3.3V single supply mode – Shutdown mode is not available • 1.8V single supply mode – Shutdown mode is not available • 3.3V supply mode, with 1.8V regulated I/O lines – Shutdown mode is available 41 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 6.1.3.1 3.3V Single Supply Mode In 3.3V single supply mode the internal regulator is connected to the 3.3V source (VDDIN pin) and its output feeds VDDCORE. Figure 6-2 shows the power schematics to be used for 3.3V single supply mode. All I/O lines will be powered by the same power (VDDIN=VDDIO).

All I/O lines will be powered by the same power (VDDIN = VDDIO = VDDCORE).

This configuration is required in order to use Shutdown mode. Figure 6-4. 3.3V Supply Mode with 1.8V Regulated I/O Lines In this mode, some I/O lines are powered by VDDIN while other I/O lines are powered by VDDIO. Refer to Section on page 10 for description of power supply for each I/O line. Refer to the Power Manager chapter for a description of what parts of the system are powered in Shutdown mode. Important note: As the regulator has a maximum output current of 60 mA, this mode can only be used in applications where the maximum I/O current is known and compatible with the core and peripheral power consumption. Typically, great care must be used to ensure that only a few I/O lines are toggling at the same time and drive very small loads.

Recommended order for power supplies is also described in this chapter. 6.1.4.2 Minimum Rise Rate The integrated Power-on Reset (POR33) circuitry monitoring the VDDIN powering supply requires a minimum rise rate for the VDDIN power supply. See Table 35-3 on page 898 for the minimum rise rate value. If the application can not ensure that the minimum rise rate condition for the VDDIN power supply is met, one of the following configurations can be used: • A logic “0” value is applied during power-up on pin PA11 (WAKE_N) until VDDIN rises above 1.2V. • A logic “0” value is applied during power-up on pin RESET_N until VDDIN rises above 1.2V. 6.2 Startup Considerations This chapter summarizes the boot sequence of the ATUC64/128/256L3/4U. The behavior after power-up is controlled by the Power Manager. For specific details, refer to the Power Manager chapter. 6.2.1 Starting of Clocks After power-up, the device will be held in a reset state by the Power-on Reset (POR18 and POR33) circuitry for a short time to allow the power to stabilize throughout the device. After reset, the device will use the System RC Oscillator (RCSYS) as clock source. Please refer to Table 35-17 on page 910 for the frequency for this oscillator. On system start-up, all high-speed clocks are disabled. All clocks to all modules are running. No clocks have a divided frequency; all parts of the system receive a clock with the same frequency as the System RC Oscillator. When powering up the device, there may be a delay before the voltage has stabilized, depending on the rise time of the supply used. The CPU can start executing code as soon as the supply is above the POR18 and POR33 thresholds, and before the supply is stable. Before switching to a high-speed clock source, the user should use the BOD to make sure the VDDCORE is above the minimum level (1.62V). 6.2.2 Fetching of Initial Instructions After reset has been released, the AVR32 UC CPU starts fetching instructions from the reset address, which is 0x80000000. This address points to the first address in the internal Flash. The code read from the internal flash is free to configure the clock system and clock sources. Please refer to the PM and SCIF chapters for more details. 45 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 7. Peripheral DMA Controller (PDCA) Rev: 1.2.3.1 7.1 Features • Multiple channels • Generates transfers between memories and peripherals such as USART and SPI • Two address pointers/counters per channel allowing double buffering • Performance monitors to measure average and maximum transfer latency • Optional synchronizing of data transfers with extenal peripheral events • Ring buffer functionality 7.2 Overview The Peripheral DMA Controller (PDCA) transfers data between on-chip peripheral modules such as USART, SPI and memories (those memories may be on- and off-chip memories). Using the PDCA avoids CPU intervention for data transfers, improving the performance of the microcontroller. The PDCA can transfer data from memory to a peripheral or from a peripheral to memory. The PDCA consists of multiple DMA channels. Each channel has: • A Peripheral Select Register • A 32-bit memory pointer • A 16-bit transfer counter • A 32-bit memory pointer reload value • A 16-bit transfer counter reload value The PDCA communicates with the peripheral modules over a set of handshake interfaces. The peripheral signals the PDCA when it is ready to receive or transmit data. The PDCA acknowledges the request when the transmission has started. When a transmit buffer is empty or a receive buffer is full, an optional interrupt request can be generated. 46 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 7.3 Block Diagram Figure 7-1. PDCA Block Diagram 7.4 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 7.4.1 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables the PDCA clocks, the PDCA will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. 7.4.2 Clocks The PDCA has two bus clocks connected: One High Speed Bus clock (CLK_PDCA_HSB) and one Peripheral Bus clock (CLK_PDCA_PB). These clocks are generated by the Power Manager. Both clocks are enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the PDCA before disabling the clocks, to avoid freezing the PDCA in an undefined state. 7.4.3 Interrupts The PDCA interrupt request lines are connected to the interrupt controller. Using the PDCA interrupts requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first.

Memory HSB 47 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 7.4.4 Peripheral Events The PDCA peripheral events are connected via the Peripheral Event System. Refer to the Peripheral Event System chapter for details. 7.5 Functional Description 7.5.1 Basic Operation The PDCA consists of multiple independent PDCA channels, each capable of handling DMA requests in parallel. Each PDCA channels contains a set of configuration registers which must be configured to start a DMA transfer. In this section the steps necessary to configure one PDCA channel is outlined. The peripheral to transfer data to or from must be configured correctly in the Peripheral Select Register (PSR). This is performed by writing the Peripheral Identity (PID) value for the corresponding peripheral to the PID field in the PSR register. The PID also encodes the transfer direction, i.e. memory to peripheral or peripheral to memory. See Section 7.5.6. The transfer size must be written to the Transfer Size field in the Mode Register (MR.SIZE). The size must match the data size produced or consumed by the selected peripheral. See Section 7.5.7. The memory address to transfer to or from, depending on the PSR, must be written to the Memory Address Register (MAR). For each transfer the memory address is increased by either a one, two or four, depending on the size set in MR. See Section 7.5.2. The number of data items to transfer is written to the TCR register. If the PDCA channel is enabled, a transfer will start immediately after writing a non-zero value to TCR or the reload version of TCR, TCRR. After each transfer the TCR value is decreased by one. Both MAR and TCR can be read while the PDCA channel is active to monitor the DMA progress. See Section 7.5.3. The channel must be enabled for a transfer to start. A channel is enable by writing a one to the EN bit in the Control Register (CR). 7.5.2 Memory Pointer Each channel has a 32-bit Memory Address Register (MAR). This register holds the memory address for the next transfer to be performed. The register is automatically updated after each transfer. The address will be increased by either one, two or four depending on the size of the DMA transfer (byte, halfword or word). The MAR can be read at any time during transfer. 7.5.3 Transfer Counter Each channel has a 16-bit Transfer Counter Register (TCR). This register must be written with the number of transfers to be performed. The TCR register should contain the number of data items to be transferred independently of the transfer size. The TCR can be read at any time during transfer to see the number of remaining transfers. 7.5.4 Reload Registers Both the MAR and the TCR have a reload register, respectively Memory Address Reload Register (MARR) and Transfer Counter Reload Register (TCRR). These registers provide the possibility for the PDCA to work on two memory buffers for each channel. When one buffer has completed, MAR and TCR will be reloaded with the values in MARR and TCRR. The reload logic is always enabled and will trigger if the TCR reaches zero while TCRR holds a non-zero value. After reload, the MARR and TCRR registers are cleared. 48 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U If TCR is zero when writing to TCRR, the TCR and MAR are automatically updated with the value written in TCRR and MARR. 7.5.5 Ring Buffer When Ring Buffer mode is enabled the TCRR and MARR registers will not be cleared when TCR and MAR registers reload. This allows the PDCA to read or write to the same memory region over and over again until the transfer is actively stopped by the user. Ring Buffer mode is enabled by writing a one to the Ring Buffer bit in the Mode Register (MR.RING). 7.5.6 Peripheral Selection The Peripheral Select Register (PSR) decides which peripheral should be connected to the PDCA channel. A peripheral is selected by writing the corresponding Peripheral Identity (PID) to the PID field in the PSR register. Writing the PID will both select the direction of the transfer (memory to peripheral or peripheral to memory), which handshake interface to use, and the address of the peripheral holding register. Refer to the Peripheral Identity (PID) table in the Module Configuration section for the peripheral PID values. 7.5.7 Transfer Size The transfer size can be set individually for each channel to be either byte, halfword or word (8- bit, 16-bit or 32-bit respectively). Transfer size is set by writing the desired value to the Transfer Size field in the Mode Register (MR.SIZE). When the PDCA moves data between peripherals and memory, data is automatically sized and aligned. When memory is accessed, the size specified in MR.SIZE and system alignment is used. When a peripheral register is accessed the data to be transferred is converted to a word where bit n in the data corresponds to bit n in the peripheral register. If the transfer size is byte or halfword, bits greater than 8 and16 respectively are set to zero. Refer to the Module Configuration section for information regarding what peripheral registers are used for the different peripherals and then to the peripheral specific chapter for information about the size option available for the different registers. 7.5.8 Enabling and Disabling Each DMA channel is enabled by writing a one to the Transfer Enable bit in the Control Register (CR.TEN) and disabled by writing a one to the Transfer Disable bit (CR.TDIS). The current status can be read from the Status Register (SR). While the PDCA channel is enabled all DMA request will be handled as long the TCR and TCRR is not zero. 7.5.9 Interrupts Interrupts can be enabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER) and disabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Disable Register (IDR). The Interrupt Mask Register (IMR) can be read to see whether an interrupt is enabled or not. The current status of an interrupt source can be read through the Interrupt Status Register (ISR). The PDCA has three interrupt sources: • Reload Counter Zero - The TCRR register is zero. • Transfer Finished - Both the TCR and TCRR registers are zero. • Transfer Error - An error has occurred in accessing memory. 49 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 7.5.10 Priority If more than one PDCA channel is requesting transfer at a given time, the PDCA channels are prioritized by their channel number. Channels with lower numbers have priority over channels with higher numbers, giving channel zero the highest priority. 7.5.11 Error Handling If the Memory Address Register (MAR) is set to point to an invalid location in memory, an error will occur when the PDCA tries to perform a transfer. When an error occurs, the Transfer Error bit in the Interrupt Status Register (ISR.TERR) will be set and the DMA channel that caused the error will be stopped. In order to restart the channel, the user must program the Memory Address Register to a valid address and then write a one to the Error Clear bit in the Control Register (CR.ECLR). If the Transfer Error interrupt is enabled, an interrupt request will be generated when a transfer error occurs. 7.5.12 Peripheral Event Trigger Peripheral events can be used to trigger PDCA channel transfers. Peripheral Event synchronizations are enabled by writing a one to the Event Trigger bit in the Mode Register (MR.ETRIG). When set, all DMA requests will be blocked until a peripheral event is received. For each peripheral event received, only one data item is transferred. If no DMA requests are pending when a peripheral event is received, the PDCA will start a transfer as soon as a peripheral event is detected. If multiple events are received while the PDCA channel is busy transferring data, an overflow condition will be signaled in the Peripheral Event System. Refer to the Peripheral Event System chapter for more information. 7.6 Performance Monitors Up to two performance monitors allow the user to measure the activity and stall cycles for PDCA transfers. To monitor a PDCA channel, the corresponding channel number must be written to one of the MON0/1CH fields in the Performance Control Register (PCONTROL) and a one must be written to the corresponding CH0/1EN bit in the same register. Due to performance monitor hardware resource sharing, the two monitor channels should NOT be programmed to monitor the same PDCA channel. This may result in UNDEFINED performance monitor behavior. 7.6.1 Measuring mechanisms Three different parameters can be measured by each channel: • The number of data transfer cycles since last channel reset, both for read and write • The number of stall cycles since last channel reset, both for read and write • The maximum latency since last channel reset, both for read and write These measurements can be extracted by software and used to generate indicators for bus latency, bus load, and maximum bus latency. Each of the counters has a fixed width, and may therefore overflow. When an overflow is encountered in either the Performance Channel Data Read/Write Cycle registers (PRDATA0/1 and PWDATA0/1) or the Performance Channel Read/Write Stall Cycles registers (PRSTALL0/1 and PWSTALL0/1) of a channel, all registers in the channel are reset. This behavior is altered if the Channel Overflow Freeze bit is one in the Performance Control register (PCONTROL.CH0/1OVF). If this bit is one, the channel registers are frozen when either DATA or STALL reaches its maximum value. This simplifies one-shot readout of the counter values. 50 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The registers can also be manually reset by writing a one to the Channel Reset bit in the PCONTROL register (PCONTROL.CH0/1RES). The Performance Channel Read/Write Latency registers (PRLAT0/1 and PWLAT0/1) are saturating when their maximum count value is reached. The PRLAT0/1 and PWLAT0/1 registers can only be reset by writing a one to the corresponding reset bit in PCONTROL (PCONTROL.CH0/1RES). A counter is enabled by writing a one to the Channel Enable bit in the Performance Control Register (PCONTROL.CH0/1EN). 51 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 7.7 User Interface 7.7.1 Memory Map Overview The channels are mapped as shown in Table 7-1.

USB Interface (USBC) Rev: 2.0.0.15 8.1 Features • Compatible with the USB 2.0 specification • Supports full (12Mbit/s) and low (1.5Mbit/s) speed communication • Seven physical pipes/endpoints in ping-pong mode • Flexible pipe/endpoint configuration and reallocation of data buffers in embedded RAM • Up to two memory banks per pipe/endpoint • Built-in DMA with multi-packet support through ping-pong mode • On-chip transceivers with built-in pull-ups and pull-downs 8.2 Overview The Universal Serial Bus interface (USBC) module complies with the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 specification. Each pipe/endpoint can be configured into one of several transfer types. It can be associated with one or more memory banks (located inside the embedded system or CPU RAM) used to store the current data payload. If two banks are used (“ping-pong” mode), then one bank is read or written by the CPU (or any other HSB master) while the other is read or written by the USBC core. Table 8-1 describes the hardware configuration of the USBC module. 8.3 Block Diagram The USBC interfaces a USB link with a data flow stored in the embedded ram (CPU or HSB). The USBC requires a 48MHz ± 0.25% reference clock, which is the USB generic clock. For more details see ”Clocks” on page 84. The 48MHz clock is used to generate either a 12MHz fullspeed or a 1.5MHz low-speed bit clock from the received USB differential data, and to transmit data according to full- or low-speed USB device tolerances. Clock recovery is achieved by a digital phase-locked loop (a DPLL, not represented) in the USBC module, which complies with the USB jitter specifications. The USBC module consists of: • HSB master interface Table 8-1.

The user must first configure the I/O Controller to assign the desired USBC pins to their peripheral functions. The USB VBUS line should be connected to a GPIO pin and the user should monitor this with software. 8.5.2 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the USBC, the USBC will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. 8.5.3 Clocks The USBC has two bus clocks connected: One High Speed Bus clock (CLK_USBC_HSB) and one Peripheral Bus clock (CLK_USBC_PB). These clocks are generated by the Power Manager. Both clocks are enabled at reset, and can be disabled by the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the USBC before disabling the clocks, to avoid freezing the USBC in an undefined state. The 48MHz USB clock is generated by a dedicated generic clock from the SCIF module. Before using the USB, the user must ensure that the USB generic clock (GCLK_USBC) is enabled at 48MHz in the SCIF module. 8.5.4 Interrupts The USBC interrupt request line is connected to the interrupt controller. Using the USBC interrupt requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. The USBC asynchronous interrupt can wake the CPU from any sleep mode: • The Wakeup Interrupt (WAKEUP) 85 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 8.6 Functional Description 8.6.1 USB General Operation 8.6.1.1 Initialization After a hardware reset, the USBC is in the Reset state. In this state: • The module is disabled. The USBC Enable bit in the General Control register (USBCON.USBE) is reset. • The module clock is stopped in order to minimize power consumption. The Freeze USB Clock bit in USBCON (USBCON.FRZCLK) is set. • The USB pad is in suspend mode. • The internal states and registers of the device are reset. • The Freeze USB Clock (FRZCLK), USBC Enable (USBE), in USBCON and the Low-Speed mode bit in the Device General Control register (UDCON.LS) can be written to by software, so that the user can configure pads and speed before enabling the module. These values are only taken into account once the module has been enabled and unfrozen. After writing a one to USBCON.USBE, the USBC enters device mode in idle state. Refer to Section 8.6.2 for the basic operation of the device mode. The USBC can be disabled at any time by writing a zero to USBCON.USBE, this acts as a hardware reset, except that the FRZCLK,bit in USBCON, and the LS bits in UDCON are not reset. 8.6.1.2 Interrupts One interrupt vector is assigned to the USBC. See Section 8.6.2.18 for further details about device interrupts. See Section 8.5.4 for asynchronous interrupts. 8.6.1.3 Frozen clock When the USB clock is frozen, it is still possible to access the following bits: FRZCLK, and USBE in the USBCON register, and LS in the UDCON register. When FRZCLK is set, only the asynchronous interrupt can trigger a USB interrupt (see Section 8.5.4). 8.6.1.4 Speed control • Device mode When the USBC interface is in device mode, the speed selection is done by the UDCON.LS bit, connecting an internal pull-up resistor to either DP (full-speed mode) or DM (low-speed mode). The LS bit shall be written before attaching the device, which can be simulated by clearing the UDCON.DETACH bit. 86 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 8-2. Speed Selection in device mode 8.6.1.5 Data management Endpoints and pipe buffers can be allocated anywhere in the embedded memory (CPU RAM or HSB RAM). See ”RAM management” on page 90. 8.6.1.6 Pad Suspend Figure 8-3 illustrates the behavior of the USB pad in device mode. Figure 8-3. Pad Behavior • In Idle state, the pad is in low power consumption mode. • In Active state, the pad is working. Figure 8-4 illustrates the pad events leading to a PAD state change. RPU UDCON.DETACH DP DM UDCON.LS VBUS Idle Active USBE = 1 & DETACH = 0 & Suspend USBE = 0 | DETACH = 1 | Suspend 87 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 8-4. Pad events The Suspend Interrupt bit in the Device Global Interrupt register (UDINT.SUSP) is set and the Wakeup Interrupt (UDINT.WAKEUP) bit is cleared when a USB Suspend state has been detected on the USB bus. This event automatically puts the USB pad in the Idle state. The detection of a non-idle event sets WAKEUP, clears SUSP, and wakes the USB pad. The pad goes to the Idle state if the module is disabled or if UDCON.DETACH is written to one. It returns to the Active state when USBCON.USBE is written to one and DETACH is written to zero. SUSP Suspend detected Cleared on Wakeup WAKEUP Wakeup detected Cleared by software to acknowledge the interrupt PAD state Active Idle Active 88 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 8.6.2 USBC Device Mode Operation 8.6.2.1 Device Enabling In device mode, the USBC supports full- and low-speed data transfers. Including the default control endpoint, a total of seven endpoints are provided. They can be configured as isochronous, bulk or interrupt types, as described in Table 8-1 on page 81 After a hardware reset, the USBC device mode is in the reset state (see Section 8.6.1.1). In this state, the endpoint banks are disabled and neither DP nor DM are pulled up (DETACH is one). DP or DM will be pulled up according to the selected speed as soon as the DETACH bit is written to zero. See “Device mode” for further details. When the USBC is enabled (USBE is one) in device mode, it enters the Idle state, minimizing power consumption. Being in Idle state does not require the USB clocks to be activated. The USBC device mode can be disabled or reset at any time by disabling the USBC (by writing a zero to USBE). 8.6.2.2 USB reset The USB bus reset is initiated by a connected host and managed by hardware. When a USB reset state is detected on the USB bus, the following operations are performed by the controller: • UDCON register is reset except for the DETACH and SPDCONF bits. • Device Frame Number Register (UDFNUM), Endpoint n Configuration Register (UECFGn), and Endpoint n Control Register (UECONn) registers are cleared. • The data toggle sequencing in all the endpoints are cleared. • At the end of the reset process, the End of Reset (EORST) bit in the UDINT register is set. 8.6.2.3 Endpoint activation When an endpoint is disabled (UERST.EPENn = 0) the data toggle sequence, Endpoint n Status Set (UESTAn), and UECONn registers will be reset. The controller ignores all transactions to this endpoint as long as it is inactive. To complete an endpoint activation, the user should fill out the endpoint descriptor: see Figure 8- 5 on page 91. 8.6.2.4 Data toggle sequence In order to respond to a CLEAR_FEATURE USB request without disabling the endpoint, the user can clear the data toggle sequence by writing a one to the Reset Data Toggle Set bit in the Endpoint n Control Set register (UECONnSET.RSTDTS) 8.6.2.5 Busy bank enable In order to make an endpoint bank look busy regardless of its actual state, the user can write a one to the Busy Bank Enable bit in the Endpoint n Control Register (UECONnSET.BUSY0/1ES). If a BUSYnE bit is set, any transaction to this bank will be rejected with a NAK reply. 8.6.2.6 Address setup The USB device address is set up according to the USB protocol. 89 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • After all kinds of resets, the USB device address is 0. • The host starts a SETUP transaction with a SET_ADDRESS(addr) request. • The user writes this address to the USB Address field (UDCON.UADD), and writes a zero to the Address Enable bit (UDCON.ADDEN), resulting in the address remaining zero. • The user sends a zero-length IN packet from the control endpoint. • The user enables the stored USB device address by writing a one to ADDEN. Once the USB device address is configured, the controller filters the packets to only accept those targeting the address stored in UADD. UADD and ADDEN should not be written to simultaneously. They should be written sequentially, UADD field first. If UADD or ADDEN is cleared, the default device address 0 is used. UADD and ADDEN are cleared: • On a hardware reset. • When the USBC is disabled (USBE written to zero). • When a USB reset is detected. 8.6.2.7 Suspend and Wakeup When an idle USB bus state has been detected for 3 ms, the controller sets the Suspend (SUSP) interrupt bit in UDINT. In this case, the transceiver is suspended, reducing power consumption. To further reduce power consumption it is recommended to freeze the USB clock by writing a one to the Freeze USB Clock (FRZCLK) bit in USBCON when the USB bus is in suspend mode. The MCU can also enter the idle or frozen sleep mode to further lower power consumption. To recover from the suspend mode, the user shall wait for the Wakeup (WAKEUP) interrupt bit, which is set when a non-idle event is detected, and then write a zero to FRZCLK. As the WAKEUP interrupt bit in UDINT is set when a non-idle event is detected, it can occur regardless of whether the controller is in the suspend mode or not. The SUSP and WAKEUP interrupts are thus independent of each other except for that one bit is cleared when the other is set. 8.6.2.8 Detach The reset value of the DETACH bit located in the UDCON register, is one. It is possible to initiate a device re-enumeration simply by writing a one and then a zero to DETACH. DETACH acts on the pull-up connections of the DP and DM pads. See “Device mode” for further details. 8.6.2.9 Remote wakeup The remote wakeup request (also known as upstream resume) is the only request the device may send on its own initiative. This should be preceded by a DEVICE_REMOTE_WAKEUP request from the host. • First, the USBC must have detected a “Suspend” state on the bus, i.e. the remote wakeup request can only be sent after a SUSP interrupt has been set. 90 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • The user may then write a one to the remote wakeup (RMWKUP) bit in UDCON to send an Upstream Resume to the host initiating the wakeup. This will automatically be done by the controller after 5ms of inactivity on the USB bus. • When the controller sends the Upstream Resume, the Upstream Resume (UPRSM) interrupt is set and SUSP is cleared. • RMWKUP is cleared at the end of the transmitting Upstream Resume. • In case of a rebroadcast resume initiated by the host, the End of Resume (EORSM) interrupt is set when the rebroadcast resume is completed. 8.6.2.10 RAM management Endpoint data can be physically allocated anywhere in the embedded RAM. The USBC controller accesses these endpoints directly through the HSB master (built-in DMA). The USBC controller reads the USBC descriptors to know where each endpoint is located. The base address of the USBC descriptor (UDESC.UDESCA) needs to be written by the user. The descriptors can also be allocated anywhere in the embedded RAM. Before using an endpoint, the user should setup the endpoint address for each bank. Depending on the direction, the type, and the packet-mode (single or multi-packet), the user should also initialize the endpoint packet size, and the endpoint control and status fields, so that the USBC controller does not compute random values from the RAM. When using an endpoint the user should read the UESTAX.CURRBK field to know which bank is currently being processed. 91 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 8-5.

EPn_CTR_STA_BK0/1 structure – UNDERF: Underflow status for isochronous IN transfer. See ”Data flow error” on page 99. – OVERF: Overflow status for isochronous OUT transfer. See ”Data flow error” on page 99. – CRCERR: CRC error status for isochronous OUT transfer. See ”CRC error” on page 99. – STALLRQ_NEXT: Stall request for the next transfer. See ”STALL request” on page 92. 8.6.2.11 STALL request For each endpoint, the STALL management is performed using: • The STALL Request (STALLRQ) bit in UECONn is set to initiate a STALL request. • The STALLed Interrupt (STALLEDI) bit in UESTAn is set when a STALL handshake has been sent. To answer requests with a STALL handshake, STALLRQ has to be set by writing a one to the STALL Request Set (STALLRQS) bit. All following requests will be discarded (RXOUTI, etc. will not be set) and handshaked with a STALL until the STALLRQ bit is cleared, by receiving a new SETUP packet (for control endpoints) or by writing a one to the STALL Request Clear (STALLRQC) bit. Each time a STALL handshake is sent, the STALLEDI bit is set by the USBC and the EPnINT interrupt is set. The user can use the descriptor to manage STALL requests. The USBC controller reads the EPn_CTR_STA_BK0/1.STALLRQ_NEXT bit after successful transactions and if it is one the USBC controller will set UECON.STALLRQ. The STALL_NEXT bit will be cleared upon receiving a SETUP transaction and the USBC controller will then clear the STALLRQ bit. • Special considerations for control endpoints If a SETUP packet is received at a control endpoint where a STALL request is active, the Received SETUP Interrupt (RXSTPI) bit in UESTAn is set, and the STALLRQ and STALLEDI bits are cleared. It allows the SETUP to be always ACKed as required by the USB standard. This management simplifies the enumeration process management. If a command is not supported or contains an error, the user requests a STALL and can return to the main task, waiting for the next SETUP request. • STALL handshake and retry mechanism The retry mechanism has priority over the STALL handshake. A STALL handshake is sent if the STALLRQ bit is set and if there is no retry required. 31:19 18 17 16 15:1 0 Status elements Control elements - UNDERF OVERF CRCERR - STALLRQ_NEXT 93 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 8.6.2.12 Multi packet mode and single packet mode. Single packet mode is the default mode where one USB packet is managed per bank. The multi-packet mode allows the user to manage data exceeding the maximum endpoint size (UECFGn.EPSIZE) for an endpoint bank across multiple packets without software intervention. This mode can also be coupled with the ping-pong mode. • For an OUT endpoint, the EPn_PCKSIZE_BK0/1.MULTI_PACKET_SIZE field should be configured correctly to enable the multi-packet mode. See ”Multi packet mode for OUT endpoints” on page 98. For single packet mode, the MULTI_PACKET_SIZE should be initialized to 0. • For an IN endpoint, the EPn_PCKSIZE_BK0/1.BYTE_COUNT field should be configured correctly to enable the multi-packet mode. See”Multi packet mode for IN endpoints” on page 96. For single packet mode, the BYTE_COUNT should be less than EPSIZE. 8.6.2.13 Management of control endpoints • Overview A SETUP request is always ACKed. When a new SETUP packet is received, the RXSTPI is set, but not the Received OUT Data Interrupt (RXOUTI) bit. The FIFO Control (FIFOCON) bit in UECONn is irrelevant for control endpoints. The user should therefore never use it for these endpoints. When read, this value is always zero. Control endpoints are managed using: • The RXSTPI bit: is set when a new SETUP packet is received. This has to be cleared by firmware in order to acknowledge the packet and to free the bank. • The RXOUTI bit: is set when a new OUT packet is received. This has to be cleared by firmware in order to acknowledge the packet and to free the bank. • The Transmitted IN Data Interrupt (TXINI) bit: is set when the current bank is ready to accept a new IN packet. This has to be cleared by firmware in order to send the packet. • Control write Figure 8-6 on page 94 shows a control write transaction. During the status stage, the controller will not necessarily send a NAK on the first IN token: • If the user knows the exact number of descriptor bytes that will be read, the status stage can be predicted, and a zero-length packet can be sent after the next IN token. • Alternatively the bytes can be read until the NAKed IN Interrupt (NAKINI) is triggered, notifying that all bytes are sent by the host and that the transaction is now in the status stage. 94 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 8-6. Control Write • Control read Figure 8-7 on page 94 shows a control read transaction. The USBC has to manage the simultaneous write requests from the CPU and USB host. Figure 8-7. Control Read A NAK handshake is always generated as the first status stage command. The UESTAn.NAKINI bit is set. It allows the user to know that the host aborts the IN data stage. As a consequence, the user should stop processing the IN data stage and should prepare to receive the OUT status stage by checking the UESTAn.RXOUTI bit. The OUT retry is always ACKed. This OUT reception sets RXOUTI. Handle this with the following software algorithm: // process the IN data stage set TXINI wait for RXOUTI (rising) OR TXINI (falling) if RXOUTI is high, then process the OUT status stage if TXINI is low, then return to process the IN data stage Once the OUT status stage has been received, the USBC waits for a SETUP request. The SETUP request has priority over all other requests and will be ACKed.

The endpoint and its descriptor in RAM must be pre configured (see section ”RAM management” on page 90 for more details). When the current bank is clear, the TXINI and FIFO Control (UECONn.FIFOCON) bits will be set simultaneously. This triggers an EPnINT interrupt if the Transmitted IN Data Interrupt Enable (TXINE) bit in UECONn is one. TXINI shall be cleared by software (by writing a one to the Transmitted IN Data Interrupt Enable Clear bit in the Endpoint n Control Clear register (UECONnCLR.TXINIC)) to acknowledge the interrupt. This has no effect on the endpoint FIFO. The user writes the IN data to the bank referenced by the EPn descriptor and allows the USBC to send the data by writing a one to the FIFO Control Clear (UECONnCLR.FIFOCONC) bit. This will also cause a switch to the next bank if the IN endpoint is composed of multiple banks. The TXINI and FIFOCON bits will be updated accordingly. TXINI should always be cleared before clearing FIFOCON to avoid missing an TXINI event. Figure 8-8. Example of an IN endpoint with one data bank Figure 8-9. Example of an IN endpoint with two data banks IN DATA (bank 0) ACK TXINI FIFOCON HW write data to CPU BANK 0 SW SW SW SW IN NAK write data to CPU BANK 0 IN DATA (bank 0) ACK TXINI FIFOCON write data to CPU BANK 0 SW SW SW SW IN DATA (bank 1) ACK write data to CPU BANK 1 SW HW write data to CPU BANK0 96 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • Detailed description The data is written according to this sequence: • When the bank is empty, TXINI and FIFOCON are set, which triggers an EPnINT interrupt if TXINE is one. • The user acknowledges the interrupt by clearing TXINI. • The user reads the UESTAX.CURRBK field to see which the current bank is. • The user writes the data to the current bank, located in RAM as described by its descriptor: EPn_ADDR_BK0/1. • The user should write the size of the IN packet into the USB descriptor: EPn_PCKSIZE_BK0/1.BYTE_COUNT. • The user allows the controller to send the bank contents and switches to the next bank (if any) by clearing FIFOCON. If the endpoint uses several banks, the current one can be written while the previous one is being read by the host. When the user clears FIFOCON, the next current bank may already be clear and TXINI is set immediately. An “Abort” stage can be produced when a zero-length OUT packet is received during an IN stage of a control or isochronous IN transaction. The Kill IN Bank (KILLBK) bit in UECONn is used to kill the last written bank. The best way to manage this abort is to apply the algorithm represented on Figure 8-10 on page 96. See ”Endpoint n Control Register” on page 130 for more details about the KILLBK bit. Figure 8-10. Abort Algorithm • Multi packet mode for IN endpoints In multi packet mode, the user can prepare n USB packets in the bank to be sent on a multiple IN transaction. The packet sizes will equal UECFGn.EPSIZE unless the AUTO_ZLP option is Endpoint Abort Abort Done Abort is based on the fact that no bank is busy, i.e., that nothing has to be sent Disable the TXINI interrupt. EPRSTn = 1 NBUSYBK == 0? Yes TXINEC = 1 No KILLBKS = 1 KILLBK Yes == 1? Kill the last written bank. Wait for the end of the procedure No 97 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U set, or if the total byte count is not an integral multiple of EPSIZE, whereby the last packet should be short. To enable the multi packet mode, the user should configure the endpoint descriptor (EPn_PCKSIZE_BK0/1.BYTE_COUNT) to the total size of the multi packet, which should be larger than the endpoint size (EPSIZE). Since the EPn_PCKSIZE_BK0/1.MULTI_PACKET_SIZE is incremented (by the transmitted packet size) after each successful transaction, it should be set to zero when setting up a new multi packet transfer. The EPn_PCKSIZE_BK0/1.MULTI_PACKET_SIZE is cleared by hardware when all the bank contents have been sent. The bank is considered as ready and the TX_IN flag is set when: • A short packet (smaller than EPSIZE) has been transmitted. • A packet has been successfully transmitted, the updated MULTI_PACKET_SIZE equals the BYTE_COUNT, and the AUTO_ZLP field is not set. • An extra zero length packet has been automatically sent for the last transfer of the current bank, if BYTE_COUNT is a multiple of EPSIZE and AUTO_ZLP is set. 8.6.2.15 Management of OUT endpoints • Overview The endpoint and its descriptor in RAM must be pre configured, see section ”RAM management” on page 90 for more details. When the current bank is full, the RXOUTI and FIFO Control (UECONn.FIFOCON) bits will be set simultaneously. This triggers an EPnINT interrupt if the Received OUT Data Interrupt Enable (RXOUTE) bit in UECONn is one. RXOUTI shall be cleared by software (by writing a one to the Received OUT Data Interrupt Clear (RXOUTIC) bit) to acknowledge the interrupt. This has no effect on the endpoint FIFO. The user reads the OUT data from the RAM and clears the FIFOCON bit to free the bank. This will also cause a switch to the next bank if the OUT endpoint is composed of multiple banks. RXOUTI should always be cleared before clearing FIFOCON to avoid missing an RXOUTI event. Figure 8-11. Example of an OUT endpoint with one data bank OUT DATA (bank 0) ACK RXOUTI FIFOCON HW OUT DATA (bank 0) ACK HW SW SW SW read data from CPU BANK 0 read data from CPU BANK 0 NAK 98 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 8-12. Example of an OUT endpoint with two data banks • Detailed description Before using the OUT endpoint, one should properly initialize its descriptor for each bank. See Figure 8-5 on page 91. The data is read, according to this sequence: • When the bank is full, RXOUTI and FIFOCON are set, which triggers an EPnINT interrupt if RXOUTE is one. • The user acknowledges the interrupt by writing a one to RXOUTIC in order to clear RXOUTI. • The user reads the UESTAX.CURRBK field to know the current bank number. • The user reads the byte count of the current bank from the descriptor in RAM (EPn_PCKSIZE_BK0/1.BYTE_COUNT) to know how many bytes to read. • The user reads the data in the current bank, located in RAM as described by its descriptor: EPn_ADDR_BK0/1. • The user frees the bank and switches to the next bank (if any) by clearing FIFOCON. If the endpoint uses several banks, the current one can be read while the next is being written by the host. When the user clears FIFOCON, the following bank may already be ready and RXOUTI will be immediately set. • Multi packet mode for OUT endpoints In multi packet mode, the user can extend the size of the bank allowing the storage of n USB packets in the bank. To enable the multi packet mode, the user should configure the endpoint descriptor (EPn_PCKSIZE_BK0/1.MULTI_PACKET_SIZE) to match the size of the multi packet.This value should be a multiple of the endpoint size (UECFGn.EPSIZE). Since the EPn_PCKSIZE_BK0/1.BYTE_COUNT is incremented (by the received packet size) after each successful transaction, it should be set to zero when setting up a new multi packet transfer. As for single packet mode, the number of received data bytes is stored in the BYTE_CNT field. The bank is considered as “valid” and the RX_OUT flag is set when: OUT DATA (bank 0) ACK RXOUTI FIFOCON HW OUT DATA (bank 1) ACK SW read data from CPU SW BANK 0 HW SW read data from CPU BANK 1 99 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • A packet has been successfully received and the updated BYTE_COUNT equals the MULTI_PACKET_SIZE. • A short packet (smaller than EPSIZE) has been received. 8.6.2.16 Data flow error This error exists only for isochronous IN/OUT endpoints. It sets the Errorflow Interrupt (ERRORFI) bit in UESTAn, which triggers an EPnINT interrupt if the Errorflow Interrupt Enable (ERRORFE) bit is one. The user can check the EPn_CTR_STA_BK0/1.UNDERF and OVERF bits in the endpoint descriptor to see which current bank has been affected. • An underflow can occur during IN stage if the host attempts to read from an empty bank. A zero-length packet is then automatically sent by the USBC. The endpoint descriptor EPn_CTR_STA_BK0/1.UNDERF points out the bank from which the IN data should have originated. If a new successful transaction occurs, the UNDERF bit is overwritten to 0 only if the UESTAn.ERRORFI is cleared. • An overflow can occur during the OUT stage if the host tries to send a packet while the bank is full. Typically this occurs when a CPU is not fast enough. The packet data is not written to the bank and is lost. The endpoint descriptor EPn_CTR_STA_BK0/1.OVERF points out which bank the OUT data was destined to. If the UESTAn.ERRORFI bit is cleared and a new transaction is successful, the OVERF bit will be overwritten to zero. 8.6.2.17 CRC error This error exists only for isochronous OUT endpoints. It sets the CRC Error Interrupt (CRCERRI) bit in UESTAn, which triggers an EPnINT interrupt if the CRC Error Interrupt Enable (CRCERRE) bit is one. A CRC error can occur during an isochronous OUT stage if the USBC detects a corrupted received packet. The OUT packet is stored in the bank as if no CRC error had occurred (RXOUTI is set). The user can also check the endpoint descriptor to see which current bank is impacted by the CRC error by reading EPn_CTR_STA_BK0/1.CRCERR. 8.6.2.18 Interrupts There are two kinds of device interrupts: processing, i.e. their generation is part of the normal processing, and exception, i.e. errors not related to CPU exceptions. • Global interrupts The processing device global interrupts are: • The Suspend (SUSP) interrupt • The Start of Frame (SOF) interrupt with no frame number CRC error (the Frame Number CRC Error (FNCERR) bit in the Device Frame Number (UDFNUM) register is zero) • The End of Reset (EORST) interrupt • The Wakeup (WAKEUP) interrupt • The End of Resume (EORSM) interrupt • The Upstream Resume (UPRSM) interrupt • The Endpoint n (EPnINT) interrupt The exception device global interrupts are: 100 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • The Start of Frame (SOF) interrupt with a frame number CRC error (FNCERR is one) • Endpoint interrupts The processing device endpoint interrupts are: • The Transmitted IN Data Interrupt (TXINI) • The Received OUT Data Interrupt (RXOUTI) • The Received SETUP Interrupt (RXSTPI) • The Number of Busy Banks (NBUSYBK) interrupt The exception device endpoint interrupts are: • The Errorflow Interrupt (ERRORFI) • The NAKed OUT Interrupt (NAKOUTI) • The NAKed IN Interrupt (NAKINI) • The STALLed Interrupt (STALLEDI) • The CRC Error Interrupt (CRCERRI) 101 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 8.7 User Interface Note: 1.

This bit is set when a CRC error has been detected in an isochronous OUT endpoint bank, and triggers an EPnINT interrupt if CRCERRE is one. • NAKINI: NAKed IN Interrupt This bit is cleared when the NAKINIC bit is written to one, acknowledging the interrupt. This bit is set when a NAK handshake has been sent in response to an IN request from the host, and triggers an EPnINT interrupt if NAKINE is one. • NAKOUTI: NAKed OUT Interrupt This bit is cleared when the NAKOUTIC bit is written to one, acknowledging the interrupt. This bit is set when a NAK handshake has been sent in response to an OUT request from the host, and triggers an EPnINT interrupt if NAKOUTE is one. • ERRORFI: Isochronous Error flow Interrupt This bit is cleared when the ERRORFIC bit is written to one, acknowledging the interrupt. This bit is set, for isochronous IN/OUT endpoints, when an errorflow (underflow or overflow) error occurs, and triggers an EPnINT interrupt if ERRORFE is one. An underflow can occur during IN stage if the host attempts to read from an empty bank. A zero-length packet is then automatically sent by the USBC. An overflow can also occur during OUT stage if the host sends a packet while the bank is already full, resulting in the packet being lost. This is typically due to a CPU not being fast enough. This bit is inactive (cleared) for bulk and interrupt IN/OUT endpoints and it means RXSTPI for control endpoints. • RXSTPI: Received SETUP Interrupt This bit is cleared when the RXSTPIC bit is written to one, acknowledging the interrupt and freeing the bank. This bit is set, for control endpoints, to signal that the current bank contains a new valid SETUP packet, and triggers an EPnINT interrupt if RXSTPE is one. This bit is inactive (cleared) for bulk and interrupt IN/OUT endpoints and it means UNDERFI for isochronous IN/OUT endpoints. • RXOUTI: Received OUT Data Interrupt This bit is cleared when the RXOUTIC bit is written to one, acknowledging the interrupt. For control endpoints, it releases the bank. For other endpoint types, the user should clear the FIFOCON bit to free the bank. RXOUTI shall always be cleared before clearing FIFOCON to avoid missing an interrupt.

This triggers an EPnINT interrupt if RXOUTE is one. This bit is set for isochronous, bulk and, interrupt OUT endpoints, at the same time as FIFOCON when the current bank is full. This triggers an EPnINT interrupt if RXOUTE is one. This bit is inactive (cleared) for isochronous, bulk and interrupt IN endpoints. • TXINI: Transmitted IN Data Interrupt This bit is cleared when the TXINIC bit is written to one, acknowledging the interrupt. For control endpoints, this will send the packet. For other endpoint types, the user should clear the FIFOCON to allow the USBC to send the data. TXINI shall always be cleared before clearing FIFOCON to avoid missing an interrupt. This bit is set for control endpoints, when the current bank is ready to accept a new IN packet. This triggers an EPnINT interrupt if TXINE is one. This bit is set for isochronous, bulk and interrupt IN endpoints, at the same time as FIFOCON when the current bank is free. This triggers an EPnINT interrupt if TXINE is one. This bit is inactive (cleared) for isochronous, bulk and interrupt OUT endpoints. 128 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 8.7.2.12 Endpoint n Status Clear Register Register Name: UESTAnCLR, n in [0..6] Access Type: Write-Only Offset: 0x0160 + (n * 0x04) Reset Value: 0x00000000 Writing a zero to a bit in this register has no effect.

This bit is set when the KILLBKS bit is written to one, killing the last written bank. The user shall wait for this bit to be cleared before trying to process another IN packet. Caution: The bank is cleared when the “kill packet” procedure is completed by the USBC core: If the bank is really killed, the NBUSYBK field is decremented. If the bank sent instead of killed (IN transfer), the NBUSYBK field is decremented and the TXINI flag is set. This specific case can occur if an IN token comes while the user tries to kill the bank. Note: If two banks are ready to be sent, the above specific case will not occur, since the first bank is sent (IN transfer) while the last bank is killed. • NBUSYBKE: Number of Busy Banks Interrupt Enable This bit is cleared when the NBUSYBKEC bit is written to zero, disabling the Number of Busy Banks interrupt (NBUSYBK). This bit is set when the NBUSYBKES bit is written to one, enabling the Number of Busy Banks interrupt (NBUSYBK). • RAMACERE: RAMACER Interrupt Enable This bit is cleared when the RAMACEREC bit is written to one, disabling the RAMACER interrupt (RAMACERI).

Flash Controller (FLASHCDW) Rev: 1.2.0.0 9.1 Features • Controls on-chip flash memory • Supports 0 and 1 wait state bus access • Buffers reducing penalty of wait state in sequential code or loops • Allows interleaved burst reads for systems with one wait state, outputting one 32-bit word per clock cycle for sequential reads • Secure State for supporting FlashVault technology • 32-bit HSB interface for reads from flash and writes to page buffer • 32-bit PB interface for issuing commands to and configuration of the controller • Flash memory is divided into 16 regions can be individually protected or unprotected • Additional protection of the Boot Loader pages • Supports reads and writes of general-purpose Non Volatile Memory (NVM) bits • Supports reads and writes of additional NVM pages • Supports device protection through a security bit • Dedicated command for chip-erase, first erasing all on-chip volatile memories before erasing flash and clearing security bit 9.2 Overview The Flash Controller (FLASHCDW) interfaces the on-chip flash memory with the 32-bit internal HSB bus. The controller manages the reading, writing, erasing, locking, and unlocking sequences. 9.3 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 9.3.1 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the FLASHCDW, the FLASHCDW will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. 9.3.2 Clocks The FLASHCDW has two bus clocks connected: One High Speed Bus clock (CLK_FLASHCDW_HSB) and one Peripheral Bus clock (CLK_FLASHCDW_PB). These clocks are generated by the Power Manager. Both clocks are enabled at reset, and can be disabled by writing to the Power Manager. The user has to ensure that CLK_FLASHCDW_HSB is not turned off before reading the flash or writing the pagebuffer and that CLK_FLASHCDW_PB is not turned off before accessing the FLASHCDW configuration and control registers. Failing to do so may deadlock the bus. 9.3.3 Interrupts The FLASHCDW interrupt request lines are connected to the interrupt controller. Using the FLASHCDW interrupts requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 136 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 9.3.4 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the FLASHCDW continues normal operation. If the FLASHCDW is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 9.4 Functional Description 9.4.1 Bus Interfaces The FLASHCDW has two bus interfaces, one High Speed Bus (HSB) interface for reads from the flash memory and writes to the page buffer, and one Peripheral Bus (PB) interface for issuing commands and reading status from the controller. 9.4.2 Memory Organization The flash memory is divided into a set of pages. A page is the basic unit addressed when programming the flash. A page consists of several words. The pages are grouped into 16 regions of equal size. Each of these regions can be locked by a dedicated fuse bit, protecting it from accidental modification. • p pages (FLASH_P) • w bytes in each page and in the page buffer (FLASH_W) • pw bytes in total (FLASH_PW) • f general-purpose fuse bits (FLASH_F), used as region lock bits and for other device-specific purposes • 1 security fuse bit • 1 User page 9.4.3 User Page The User page is an additional page, outside the regular flash array, that can be used to store various data, such as calibration data and serial numbers. This page is not erased by regular chip erase. The User page can only be written and erased by a special set of commands. Read accesses to the User page are performed just as any other read accesses to the flash. The address map of the User page is given in Figure 9-1 on page 138. 9.4.4 Read Operations The on-chip flash memory is typically used for storing instructions to be executed by the CPU. The CPU will address instructions using the HSB bus, and the FLASHCDW will access the flash memory and return the addressed 32-bit word. In systems where the HSB clock period is slower than the access time of the flash memory, the FLASHCDW can operate in 0 wait state mode, and output one 32-bit word on the bus per clock cycle. If the clock frequency allows, the user should use 0 wait state mode, because this gives the highest performance as no stall cycles are encountered. The FLASHCDW can also operate in systems where the HSB bus clock period is faster than the access speed of the flash memory. Wait state support and a read granularity of 64 bits ensure efficiency in such systems. Performance for systems with high clock frequency is increased since the internal read word width of the flash memory is 64 bits. When a 32-bit word is to be addressed, the word itself and 137 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U also the other word in the same 64-bit location is read. The first word is output on the bus, and the other word is put into an internal buffer. If a read to a sequential address is to be performed in the next cycle, the buffered word is output on the bus, while the next 64-bit location is read from the flash memory. Thus, latency in 1 wait state mode is hidden for sequential fetches. The programmer can select the wait states required by writing to the FWS field in the Flash Control Register (FCR). It is the responsibility of the programmer to select a number of wait states compatible with the clock frequency and timing characteristics of the flash memory. In 0ws mode, no wait states are encountered on any flash read operations. In 1 ws mode, one stall cycle is encountered on the first access in a single or burst transfer. In 1 ws mode, if the first access in a burst access is to an address that is not 64-bit aligned, an additional stall cycle is also encountered when reading the second word in the burst. All subsequent words in the burst are accessed without any stall cycles. The Flash Controller provides two sets of buffers that can be enabled in order to speed up instruction fetching. These buffers can be enabled by writing a one to the FCR.SEQBUF and FCR.BRBUF bits. The SEQBUF bit enables buffering hardware optimizing sequential instruction fetches. The BRBUF bit enables buffering hardware optimizing tight inner loops. These buffers are never used when the flash is in 0 wait state mode. Usually, both these buffers should be enabled when operating in 1 wait state mode. Some users requiring absolute cycle determinism may want to keep the buffers disabled. The Flash Controller address space is displayed in Figure 9-1. The memory space between address pw and the User page is reserved, and reading addresses in this space returns an undefined result. The User page is permanently mapped to an offset of 0x00800000 from the start address of the flash memory. Table 9-1. User Page Addresses Memory type Start address, byte sized Size Main array 0 pw bytes User 0x00800000 w bytes 138 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 9-1. Memory Map for the Flash Memories 9.4.5 High Speed Read Mode The flash provides a High Speed Read Mode, offering slightly higher flash read speed at the cost of higher power consumption. Two dedicated commands, High Speed Read Mode Enable (HSEN) and High Speed Read Mode Disable (HSDIS) control the speed mode. The High Speed Mode (HSMODE) bit in the Flash Status Register (FSR) shows which mode the flash is in. After reset, the High Speed Mode is disabled, and must be manually enabled if the user wants to. Refer to the Electrical Characteristics chapter at the end of this datasheet for details on the maximum clock frequencies in Normal and High Speed Read Mode. 0 pw Reserved Flash data array Reserved User Page Flash with User Page 0x0080 0000 All addresses are byte addresses Flash base address Offset from base address 139 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 9-2. High Speed Mode 9.4.6 Quick Page Read A dedicated command, Quick Page Read (QPR), is provided to read all words in an addressed page. All bits in all words in this page are AND’ed together, returning a 1-bit result. This result is placed in the Quick Page Read Result (QPRR) bit in Flash Status Register (FSR). The QPR command is useful to check that a page is in an erased state. The QPR instruction is much faster than performing the erased-page check using a regular software subroutine. 9.4.7 Quick User Page Read A dedicated command, Quick User Page Read (QPRUP), is provided to read all words in the user page. All bits in all words in this page are AND’ed together, returning a 1-bit result. This result is placed in the Quick Page Read Result (QPRR) bit in Flash Status Register (FSR). The QPRUP command is useful to check that a page is in an erased state. The QPRUP instruction is much faster than performing the erased-page check using a regular software subroutine. 9.4.8 Page Buffer Operations The flash memory has a write and erase granularity of one page; data is written and erased in chunks of one page. When programming a page, the user must first write the new data into the Page Buffer. The contents of the entire Page Buffer is copied into the desired page in flash memory when the user issues the Write Page command, Refer to Section 9.5.1 on page 141. In order to program data into flash page Y, write the desired data to locations Y0 to Y31 in the regular flash memory map. Writing to an address A in the flash memory map will not update the flash memory, but will instead update location A%32 in the page buffer. The PAGEN field in the Flash Command (FCMD) register will at the same time be updated with the value A/32. Frequency Frequency limit for 0 wait state operation Normal High Speed mode 1 wait state 0 wait state 140 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 9-3. Mapping from Page Buffer to Flash Internally, the flash memory stores data in 64-bit doublewords. Therefore, the native data size of the Page Buffer is also a 64-bit doubleword. All locations shown in Figure 9-3 are therefore doubleword locations. Since the HSB bus only has a 32-bit data width, two 32-bit HSB transfers must be performed to write a 64-bit doubleword into the Page Buffer. The FLASHCDW has logic to combine two 32-bit HSB transfers into a 64-bit data before writing this 64-bit data into the Page Buffer. This logic requires the word with the low address to be written to the HSB bus before the word with the high address. To exemplify, to write a 64-bit value to doubleword X0 residing in page X, first write a 32-bit word to the byte address pointing to address X0, thereafter write a word to the byte address pointing to address (X0+4). The page buffer is word-addressable and should only be written with aligned word transfers, never with byte or halfword transfers. The page buffer can not be read. The page buffer is also used for writes to the User page. Page buffer write operations are performed with 4 wait states. Any accesses attempted to the FLASHCDW on the HSB bus during these cycles will be automatically stalled. Writing to the page buffer can only change page buffer bits from one to zero, i.e. writing 0xAAAAAAAA to a page buffer location that has the value 0x00000000 will not change the page buffer value. The only way to change a bit from zero to one is to erase the entire page buffer with the Clear Page Buffer command.

The programmer should do this manually by issuing the Clear Page Buffer flash command. This can be done after a page write, or before the page buffer is loaded with data to be stored to the flash page. 9.5 Flash Commands The FLASHCDW offers a command set to manage programming of the flash memory, locking and unlocking of regions, and full flash erasing. See Section 9.8.2 for a complete list of commands. To run a command, the CMD field in the Flash Command Register (FCMD) has to be written with the command number. As soon as the FCMD register is written, the FRDY bit in the Flash Status Register (FSR) is automatically cleared. Once the current command is complete, the FSR.FRDY bit is automatically set. If an interrupt has been enabled by writing a one to FCR.FRDY, the interrupt request line of the Flash Controller is activated. All flash commands except for Quick Page Read (QPR) and Quick User Page Read (QPRUP) will generate an interrupt request upon completion if FCR.FRDY is one. Any HSB bus transfers attempting to read flash memory when the FLASHCDW is busy executing a flash command will be stalled, and allowed to continue when the flash command is complete. After a command has been written to FCMD, the programming algorithm should wait until the command has been executed before attempting to read instructions or data from the flash or writing to the page buffer, as the flash will be busy. The waiting can be performed either by polling the Flash Status Register (FSR) or by waiting for the flash ready interrupt. The command written to FCMD is initiated on the first clock cycle where the HSB bus interface in FLASHCDW is IDLE. The user must make sure that the access pattern to the FLASHCDW HSB interface contains an IDLE cycle so that the command is allowed to start. Make sure that no bus masters such as DMA controllers are performing endless burst transfers from the flash. Also, make sure that the CPU does not perform endless burst transfers from flash. This is done by letting the CPU enter sleep mode after writing to FCMD, or by polling FSR for command completion. This polling will result in an access pattern with IDLE HSB cycles. All the commands are protected by the same keyword, which has to be written in the eight highest bits of the FCMD register. Writing FCMD with data that does not contain the correct key and/or with an invalid command has no effect on the flash memory; however, the PROGE bit is set in the Flash Status Register (FSR). This bit is automatically cleared by a read access to the FSR register. Writing a command to FCMD while another command is being executed has no effect on the flash memory; however, the PROGE bit is set in the Flash Status Register (FSR). This bit is automatically cleared by a read access to the FSR register. If the current command writes or erases a page in a locked region, or a page protected by the BOOTPROT fuses, the command has no effect on the flash memory; however, the LOCKE bit is set in the FSR register. This bit is automatically cleared by a read access to the FSR register. 9.5.1 Write/Erase Page Operation Flash technology requires that an erase must be done before programming. The entire flash can be erased by an Erase All command. Alternatively, pages can be individually erased by the Erase Page command. The User page can be written and erased using the mechanisms described in this chapter. 142 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U After programming, the page can be locked to prevent miscellaneous write or erase sequences. Locking is performed on a per-region basis, so locking a region locks all pages inside the region. Additional protection is provided for the lowermost address space of the flash. This address space is allocated for the Boot Loader, and is protected both by the lock bit(s) corresponding to this address space, and the BOOTPROT[2:0] fuses. Data to be written is stored in an internal buffer called the page buffer. The page buffer contains w words. The page buffer wraps around within the internal memory area address space and appears to be repeated by the number of pages in it. Writing of 8-bit and 16-bit data to the page buffer is not allowed and may lead to unpredictable data corruption. Data must be written to the page buffer before the programming command is written to the Flash Command Register (FCMD). The sequence is as follows: • Reset the page buffer with the Clear Page Buffer command. • Fill the page buffer with the desired contents as described in Section 9.4.8 on page 139. • Programming starts as soon as the programming key and the programming command are written to the Flash Command Register. The PAGEN field in the Flash Command Register (FCMD) must contain the address of the page to write. PAGEN is automatically updated when writing to the page buffer, but can also be written to directly. The FRDY bit in the Flash Status Register (FSR) is automatically cleared when the page write operation starts. • When programming is completed, the FRDY bit in the Flash Status Register (FSR) is set. If an interrupt was enabled by writing FCR.FRDY to one, an interrupt request is generated. Two errors can be detected in the FSR register after a programming sequence: • Programming Error: A bad keyword and/or an invalid command have been written in the FCMD register. • Lock Error: Can have two different causes: – The page to be programmed belongs to a locked region. A command must be executed to unlock the corresponding region before programming can start. – A bus master without secure status attempted to program a page requiring secure privileges. 9.5.2 Erase All Operation The entire memory is erased if the Erase All command (EA) is written to the Flash Command Register (FCMD). Erase All erases all bits in the flash array. The User page is not erased. All flash memory locations, the general-purpose fuse bits, and the security bit are erased (reset to 0xFF) after an Erase All. The EA command also ensures that all volatile memories, such as register file and RAMs, are erased before the security bit is erased. Erase All operation is allowed only if no regions are locked, and the BOOTPROT fuses are configured with a BOOTPROT region size of 0. Thus, if at least one region is locked, the bit LOCKE in FSR is set and the command is cancelled. If the LOCKE bit in FCR is one, an interrupt request is set generated. When the command is complete, the FRDY bit in the Flash Status Register (FSR) is set. If an interrupt has been enabled by writing FCR.FRDY to one, an interrupt request is generated. Two errors can be detected in the FSR register after issuing the command: 143 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • Programming Error: A bad keyword and/or an invalid command have been written in the FCMD register. • Lock Error: At least one lock region is protected, or BOOTPROT is different from 0. The erase command has been aborted and no page has been erased. A “Unlock region containing given page” (UP) command must be executed to unlock any locked regions. 9.5.3 Region Lock Bits The flash memory has p pages, and these pages are grouped into 16 lock regions, each region containing p/16 pages. Each region has a dedicated lock bit preventing writing and erasing pages in the region. After production, the device may have some regions locked. These locked regions are reserved for a boot or default application. Locked regions can be unlocked to be erased and then programmed with another application or other data. To lock or unlock a region, the commands Lock Region Containing Page (LP) and Unlock Region Containing Page (UP) are provided. Writing one of these commands, together with the number of the page whose region should be locked/unlocked, performs the desired operation. One error can be detected in the FSR register after issuing the command: • Programming Error: A bad keyword and/or an invalid command have been written in the FCMD register. The lock bits are implemented using the lowest 16 general-purpose fuse bits. This means that lock bits can also be set/cleared using the commands for writing/erasing general-purpose fuse bits, see Section 9.6. The general-purpose bit being in an erased (1) state means that the region is unlocked. The lowermost pages in the flash can additionally be protected by the BOOTPROT fuses, see Section 9.6. 9.6 General-purpose Fuse Bits The flash memory has a number of general-purpose fuse bits that the application programmer can use freely. The fuse bits can be written and erased using dedicated commands, and read 144 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U through a dedicated Peripheral Bus address. Some of the general-purpose fuse bits are reserved for special purposes, and should not be used for other functions: The BOOTPROT fuses protects the following address space for the Boot Loader: Table 9-2. General-purpose Fuses with Special Functions GeneralPurpose fuse number Name Usage 15:0 LOCK Region lock bits. 16 EPFL External Privileged Fetch Lock. Used to prevent the CPU from fetching instructions from external memories when in privileged mode. This bit can only be changed when the security bit is cleared. The address range corresponding to external memories is device-specific, and not known to the Flash Controller. This fuse bit is simply routed out of the CPU or bus system, the Flash Controller does not treat this fuse in any special way, except that it can not be altered when the security bit is set. If the security bit is set, only an external JTAG or aWire Chip Erase can clear EPFL. No internal commands can alter EPFL if the security bit is set. When the fuse is erased (i.e. "1"), the CPU can execute instructions fetched from external memories. When the fuse is programmed (i.e. "0"), instructions can not be executed from external memories. This fuse has no effect in devices with no External Memory Interface (EBI). 19:17 BOOTPROT Used to select one of eight different bootloader sizes. Pages included in the bootloader area can not be erased or programmed except by a JTAG or aWire chip erase. BOOTPROT can only be changed when the security bit is cleared. If the security bit is set, only an external JTAG or aWire Chip Erase can clear BOOTPROT, and thereby allow the pages protected by BOOTPROT to be programmed. No internal commands can alter BOOTPROT or the pages protected by BOOTPROT if the security bit is set. 21:20 SECURE Used to configure secure state and secure state debug capabilities. Decoded into SSE and SSDE signals as shown in Table 9-5. Refer to the AVR32 Architecture Manual and the AVR32UC Technical Reference Manual for more details on SSE and SSDE. 22 UPROT If programmed (i.e. “0”), the JTAG USER PROTECTION feature is enabled. If this fuse is programmed some HSB addresses will be accessible by JTAG access even if the flash security fuse is programmed. Refer to the JTAG documentation for more information on this functionality. This bit can only be changed when the security bit is cleared. 145 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The SECURE fuses have the following functionality: To erase or write a general-purpose fuse bit, the commands Write General-Purpose Fuse Bit (WGPB) and Erase General-Purpose Fuse Bit (EGPB) are provided. Writing one of these commands, together with the number of the fuse to write/erase, performs the desired operation. An entire General-Purpose Fuse byte can be written at a time by using the Program GP Fuse Byte (PGPFB) instruction. A PGPFB to GP fuse byte 2 is not allowed if the flash is locked by the security bit. The PFB command is issued with a parameter in the PAGEN field: • PAGEN[2:0] - byte to write • PAGEN[10:3] - Fuse value to write All general-purpose fuses can be erased by the Erase All General-Purpose fuses (EAGP) command. An EAGP command is not allowed if the flash is locked by the security bit. Two errors can be detected in the FSR register after issuing these commands: • Programming Error: A bad keyword and/or an invalid command have been written in the FCMD register. • Lock Error: – A write or erase of the BOOTPROT or EPFL or UPROT fuse bits was attempted while the flash is locked by the security bit. – A write or erase of the SECURE fuse bits was attempted when SECURE mode was enabled. The lock bits are implemented using the lowest 16 general-purpose fuse bits. This means that the 16 lowest general-purpose fuse bits can also be written/erased using the commands for locking/unlocking regions, see Section 9.5.3. Table 9-3.

The security bit can be written by a dedicated command, Set Security Bit (SSB). Once set, the only way to clear the security bit is through the JTAG or aWire Chip Erase command. Once the security bit is set, the following Flash Controller commands will be unavailable and return a lock error if attempted: • Write General-Purpose Fuse Bit (WGPB) to BOOTPROT or EPFL fuses • Erase General-Purpose Fuse Bit (EGPB) to BOOTPROT or EPFL fuses • Program General-Purpose Fuse Byte (PGPFB) of fuse byte 2 • Erase All General-Purpose Fuses (EAGPF) One error can be detected in the FSR register after issuing the command: • Programming Error: A bad keyword and/or an invalid command have been written in the FCMD register. 147 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 9.8 User Interface Note: 1. The value of the Lock bits depend on their programmed state. All other bits in FSR are 0. 2. All bits in FGPRHI/LO are dependent on the programmed state of the fuses they map to. Any bits in these registers not mapped to a fuse read as 0. 3. The reset values for these registers are device specific. Please refer to the Module Configuration section at the end of this chapter.

Secure Access Unit (SAU) Rev: 1.1.1.3 10.1 Features • Remaps registers in memory regions protected by the MPU to regions not protected by the MPU • Programmable physical address for each channel • Two modes of operation: Locked and Open – In Locked Mode, access to a channel must be preceded by an unlock action • An unlocked channel remains open only for a specific amount of time, if no access is performed during this time, the channel is relocked • Only one channel can be open at a time, opening a channel while another one is open locks the first one • Access to a locked channel is denied, a bus error and optionally an interrupt is returned • If a channel is relocked due to an unlock timeout, an interrupt can optionally be generated – In Open Mode, all channels are permanently unlocked 10.2 Overview In many systems, erroneous access to peripherals can lead to catastrophic failure. An example of such a peripheral is the Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) used to control electric motors. The PWM outputs a pulse train that controls the motor. If the control registers of the PWM module are inadvertently updated with wrong values, the motor can start operating out of control, possibly causing damage to the application and the surrounding environment. However, sometimes the PWM control registers must be updated with new values, for example when modifying the pulse train to accelerate the motor. A mechanism must be used to protect the PWM control registers from inadvertent access caused by for example: • Errors in the software code • Transient errors in the CPU caused by for example electrical noise altering the execution path of the program To improve the security in a computer system, the AVR32UC implements a Memory Protection Unit (MPU). The MPU can be set up to limit the accesses that can be performed to specific memory addresses. The MPU divides the memory space into regions, and assigns a set of access restrictions on each region. Access restrictions can for example be read/write if the CPU is in supervisor mode, and read-only if the CPU is in application mode. The regions can be of different size, but each region is usually quite large, e.g. protecting 1 kilobyte of address space or more. Furthermore, access to each region is often controlled by the execution state of the CPU, i.e. supervisor or application mode. Such a simple control mechanism is often too inflexible (too coarse-grained chunks) and with too much overhead (often requiring system calls to access protected memory locations) for simple or real-time systems such as embedded microcontrollers. Usually, the Secure Access Unit (SAU) is used together with the MPU to provide the required security and integrity. The MPU is set up to protect regions of memory, while the SAU is set up to provide a secure channel into specific memory locations that are protected by the MPU. These specific locations can be thought of as fine-grained overrides of the general coarsegrained protection provided by the MPU. 163 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 10.3 Block Diagram Figure 10-1 presents the SAU integrated in an example system with a CPU, some memories, some peripherals, and a bus system. The SAU is connected to both the Peripheral Bus (PB) and the High Speed Bus (HSB). Configuration of the SAU is done via the PB, while memory accesses are done via the HSB. The SAU receives an access on its HSB slave interface, remaps it, checks that the channel is unlocked, and if so, initiates a transfer on its HSB master interface to the remapped address. The thin arrows in Figure 10-1 exemplifies control flow when using the SAU. The CPU wants to read the RX Buffer in the USART. The MPU has been configured to protect all registers in the USART from user mode access, while the SAU has been configured to remap the RX Buffer into a memory space that is not protected by the MPU. This unprotected memory space is mapped into the SAU HSB slave space. When the CPU reads the appropriate address in the SAU, the SAU will perform an access to the desired RX buffer register in the USART, and thereafter return the read results to the CPU. The return data flow will follow the opposite direction of the control flow arrows in Figure 10-1. Figure 10-1. SAU Block Diagram SAU Channel Bus master MPU CPU Bus slave USART PWM Bus slave Bus master Bus slave Flash Bus slave RAM Bus bridge SAU Configuration Interrupt request High Speed Bus SAU Peripheral Bus 164 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 10.4 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 10.4.1 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the SAU, the SAU will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. 10.4.2 Clocks The SAU has two bus clocks connected: One High Speed Bus clock (CLK_SAU_HSB) and one Peripheral Bus clock (CLK_SAU_PB). These clocks are generated by the Power Manager. Both clocks are enabled at reset, and can be disabled by writing to the Power Manager. The user has to ensure that CLK_SAU_HSB is not turned off before accessing the SAU. Likewise, the user must ensure that no bus access is pending in the SAU before disabling CLK_SAU_HSB. Failing to do so may deadlock the High Speed Bus. 10.4.3 Interrupt The SAU interrupt request line is connected to the interrupt controller. Using the SAU interrupt requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 10.4.4 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the SAU continues normal operation. If the SAU is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 10.5 Functional Description 10.5.1 Enabling the SAU The SAU is enabled by writing a one to the Enable (EN) bit in the Control Register (CR). This will set the SAU Enabled (EN) bit in the Status Register (SR). 10.5.2 Configuring the SAU Channels The SAU has a set of channels, mapped in the HSB memory space. These channels can be configured by a Remap Target Register (RTR), located at the same memory address. When the SAU is in normal mode, the SAU channel is addressed, and when the SAU is in setup mode, the RTR can be addressed. Before the SAU can be used, the channels must be configured and enabled. To configure a channel, the corresponding RTR must be programmed with the Remap Target Address. To do this, make sure the SAU is in setup mode by writing a one to the Setup Mode Enable (SEN) bit in CR. This makes sure that a write to the RTR address accesses the RTR, not the SAU channel. Thereafter, the RTR is written with the address to remap to, typically the address of a specific PB register. When all channels have been configured, return to normal mode by writing a one to the Setup Mode Disable (SDIS) in CR. The channels can now be enabled by writing ones to the corresponding bits in the Channel Enable Registers (CERH/L). The SAU is only able to remap addresses above 0xFFFC0000. 165 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 10.5.2.1 Protecting SAU configuration registers In order to prevent the SAU configuration registers to be changed by malicious or runaway code, they should be protected by the MPU as soon as they have been configured. Maximum security is provided in the system if program memory does not contain any code to unprotect the configuration registers in the MPU. This guarantees that runaway code can not accidentally unprotect and thereafter change the SAU configuration registers. 10.5.3 Lock Mechanism The SAU can be configured to use two different access mechanisms: Open and Locked. In Open Mode, SAU channels can be accessed freely after they have been configured and enabled. In order to prevent accidental accesses to remapped addresses, it is possible to configure the SAU in Locked Mode. Writing a one to the Open Mode bit in the CONFIG register (CONFIG.OPEN) will enable Open Mode. Writing a zero to CONFIG.OPEN will enable Locked Mode. When using Locked Mode, the lock mechanism must be configured by writing a user defined key value to the Unlock Key (UKEY) field in the Configuration Register (CONFIG). The number of CLK_SAU_HSB cycles the channel remains unlocked must be written to the Unlock Number of Clock Cycles (UCYC) field in CONFIG. Access control to the SAU channels is enabled by means of the Unlock Register (UR), which resides in the same address space as the SAU channels. Before a channel can be accessed, the unlock register must be written with th correct key and channel number (single write access). Access to the channel is then permitted for the next CONFIG.UCYC clock cycles, or until a successful access to the unlocked channel has been made. Only one channel can be unlocked at a time. If any other channel is unlocked at the time of writing UR, this channel will be automatically locked before the channel addressed by the UR write is unlocked. An attempted access to a locked channel will be aborted, and the Channel Access Unsuccessful bit (SR.CAU) will be set. Any pending errors bits in SR must be cleared before it is possible to access UR. The following SR bits are defined as error bits: EXP, CAU, URREAD, URKEY, URES, MBERROR, RTRADR. If any of these bits are set while writing to UR, the write is aborted and the Unlock Register Error Status (URES) bit in SR is set. 10.5.4 Normal Operation The following sequence must be used in order to access a SAU channel in normal operation (CR.SEN=0): 1. If not in Open Mode, write the unlock key to UR.KEY and the channel number to UR.CHANNEL. 2. Perform the read or write operation to the SAU channel. If not in Open Mode, this must be done within CONFIG.UCYC clock cycles of unlocking the channel. The SAU will use its HSB master interface to remap the access to the target address pointed to by the corresponding RTR. 3. To confirm that the access was successful, wait for the IDLE transfer status bit (SR.IDLE) to indicate the operation is completed. Then check SR for possible error conditions. The SAU can be configured to generate interrupt requests or a Bus Error Exception if the access failed. 166 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 10.5.4.1 Operation example Figure 10-2 shows a typical memory map, consisting of some memories, some simple peripherals, and a SAU with multiple channels and an Unlock Register (UR). Imagine that the MPU has been set up to disallow all accesses from the CPU to the grey modules. Thus the CPU has no way of accessing for example the Transmit Holding register in the UART, present on address X on the bus. Note that the SAU RTRs are not protected by the MPU, thus the RTRs can be accessed. If for example RTR0 is configured to point to address X, an access to RTR0 will be remapped by the SAU to address X according to the algorithm presented above. By programming the SAU RTRs, specific addresses in modules that have generally been protected by the MPU can be performed. Figure 10-2. Example Memory Map for a System with SAU 10.5.5 Interrupts The SAU can generate an interrupt request to signal different events. All events that can generate an interrupt request have dedicated bits in the Status Register (SR). An interrupt request will be generated if the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR) is set. Bits in IMR are set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER), and cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Disable Register (IDR). The interrupt request remains active until the corresponding bit in SR is cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Clear Register (ICR). The following SR bits are used for signalling the result of SAU accesses: • RTR Address Error (RTRADR) is set if an illegal address is written to the RTRs. Only addresses in the range 0xFFFC0000-0xFFFFFFFF are allowed. • Master Interface Bus Error (MBERROR) is set if any of the conditions listed in Section 10.5.7 occurred.

The unlock operation was aborted. • Unlock Register Key Error (URKEY) is set if the Unlock Register was attempted written with an invalid key. • Unlock Register Read (URREAD) is set if the Unlock Register was attempted read. • Channel Access Unsuccessful (CAU) is set if the channel access was unsuccessful. • Channel Access Successful (CAS) is set if the channel access was successful. • Channel Unlock Expired (EXP) is set if the channel lock expired, with no channel being accessed after the channel was unlocked. 10.5.6 Error bits If error bits are set when attempting to unlock a channel, SR.URES will be set. The following SR bits are considered error bits: • EXP • CAU • URREAD • URKEY • URES • MBERROR • RTRADR 10.5.7 Bus Error Responses By writing a one to the Bus Error Response Enable bit (CR.BERREN), serious access errors will be configured to return a bus error to the CPU. This will cause the CPU to execute its Bus Error Data Fetch exception routine. The conditions that can generate a bus error response are: • Reading the Unlock Register • Trying to access a locked channel • The SAU HSB master receiving a bus error response from its addressed slave 10.5.8 Disabling the SAU To disable the SAU, the user must first ensure that no SAU bus operations are pending. This can be done by checking that the SR.IDLE bit is set. The SAU may then be disabled by writing a one to the Disable (DIS) bit in CR. 168 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 10.6 User Interface The following addresses are used by SAU channel configuration registers.

HSB Bus Matrix (HMATRIXB) Rev: 1.3.0.3 11.1 Features • User Interface on peripheral bus • Configurable number of masters (up to 16) • Configurable number of slaves (up to 16) • One decoder for each master • Programmable arbitration for each slave – Round-Robin – Fixed priority • Programmable default master for each slave – No default master – Last accessed default master – Fixed default master • One cycle latency for the first access of a burst • Zero cycle latency for default master • One special function register for each slave (not dedicated) 11.2 Overview The Bus Matrix implements a multi-layer bus structure, that enables parallel access paths between multiple High Speed Bus (HSB) masters and slaves in a system, thus increasing the overall bandwidth. The Bus Matrix interconnects up to 16 HSB Masters to up to 16 HSB Slaves. The normal latency to connect a master to a slave is one cycle except for the default master of the accessed slave which is connected directly (zero cycle latency). The Bus Matrix provides 16 Special Function Registers (SFR) that allow the Bus Matrix to support application specific features. 11.3 Product Dependencies In order to configure this module by accessing the user registers, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 11.3.1 Clocks The clock for the HMATRIX bus interface (CLK_HMATRIX) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. 11.4 Functional Description 11.4.1 Special Bus Granting Mechanism The Bus Matrix provides some speculative bus granting techniques in order to anticipate access requests from some masters. This mechanism reduces latency at first access of a burst or single transfer. This bus granting mechanism sets a different default master for every slave. At the end of the current access, if no other request is pending, the slave remains connected to its associated default master. A slave can be associated with three kinds of default masters: no default master, last access master, and fixed default master. 185 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U To change from one kind of default master to another, the Bus Matrix user interface provides the Slave Configuration Registers, one for each slave, that set a default master for each slave. The Slave Configuration Register contains two fields: DEFMSTR_TYPE and FIXED_DEFMSTR. The 2-bit DEFMSTR_TYPE field selects the default master type (no default, last access master, fixed default master), whereas the 4-bit FIXED_DEFMSTR field selects a fixed default master provided that DEFMSTR_TYPE is set to fixed default master. Please refer to the Bus Matrix user interface description. 11.4.1.1 No Default Master At the end of the current access, if no other request is pending, the slave is disconnected from all masters. No Default Master suits low-power mode. 11.4.1.2 Last Access Master At the end of the current access, if no other request is pending, the slave remains connected to the last master that performed an access request. 11.4.1.3 Fixed Default Master At the end of the current access, if no other request is pending, the slave connects to its fixed default master. Unlike last access master, the fixed master does not change unless the user modifies it by a software action (field FIXED_DEFMSTR of the related SCFG). 11.4.2 Arbitration The Bus Matrix provides an arbitration mechanism that reduces latency when conflict cases occur, i.e. when two or more masters try to access the same slave at the same time. One arbiter per HSB slave is provided, thus arbitrating each slave differently. The Bus Matrix provides the user with the possibility of choosing between 2 arbitration types for each slave: 1. Round-Robin Arbitration (default) 2. Fixed Priority Arbitration This is selected by the ARBT field in the Slave Configuration Registers (SCFG). Each algorithm may be complemented by selecting a default master configuration for each slave. When a re-arbitration must be done, specific conditions apply. This is described in “Arbitration Rules” . 11.4.2.1 Arbitration Rules Each arbiter has the ability to arbitrate between two or more different master requests. In order to avoid burst breaking and also to provide the maximum throughput for slave interfaces, arbitration may only take place during the following cycles: 1. Idle Cycles: When a slave is not connected to any master or is connected to a master which is not currently accessing it. 2. Single Cycles: When a slave is currently doing a single access. 3. End of Burst Cycles: When the current cycle is the last cycle of a burst transfer. For defined length burst, predicted end of burst matches the size of the transfer but is managed differently for undefined length burst. This is described below. 4. Slot Cycle Limit: When the slot cycle counter has reached the limit value indicating that the current master access is too long and must be broken. This is described below. 186 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • Undefined Length Burst Arbitration In order to avoid long slave handling during undefined length bursts (INCR), the Bus Matrix provides specific logic in order to re-arbitrate before the end of the INCR transfer. A predicted end of burst is used as a defined length burst transfer and can be selected among the following five possibilities: 1. Infinite: No predicted end of burst is generated and therefore INCR burst transfer will never be broken. 2. One beat bursts: Predicted end of burst is generated at each single transfer inside the INCP transfer. 3. Four beat bursts: Predicted end of burst is generated at the end of each four beat boundary inside INCR transfer. 4. Eight beat bursts: Predicted end of burst is generated at the end of each eight beat boundary inside INCR transfer. 5. Sixteen beat bursts: Predicted end of burst is generated at the end of each sixteen beat boundary inside INCR transfer. This selection can be done through the ULBT field in the Master Configuration Registers (MCFG). • Slot Cycle Limit Arbitration The Bus Matrix contains specific logic to break long accesses, such as very long bursts on a very slow slave (e.g., an external low speed memory). At the beginning of the burst access, a counter is loaded with the value previously written in the SLOT_CYCLE field of the related Slave Configuration Register (SCFG) and decreased at each clock cycle. When the counter reaches zero, the arbiter has the ability to re-arbitrate at the end of the current byte, halfword, or word transfer. 11.4.2.2 Round-Robin Arbitration This algorithm allows the Bus Matrix arbiters to dispatch the requests from different masters to the same slave in a round-robin manner. If two or more master requests arise at the same time, the master with the lowest number is first serviced, then the others are serviced in a round-robin manner. There are three round-robin algorithms implemented: 1. Round-Robin arbitration without default master 2. Round-Robin arbitration with last default master 3. Round-Robin arbitration with fixed default master • Round-Robin Arbitration without Default Master This is the main algorithm used by Bus Matrix arbiters. It allows the Bus Matrix to dispatch requests from different masters to the same slave in a pure round-robin manner. At the end of the current access, if no other request is pending, the slave is disconnected from all masters. This configuration incurs one latency cycle for the first access of a burst. Arbitration without default master can be used for masters that perform significant bursts. • Round-Robin Arbitration with Last Default Master This is a biased round-robin algorithm used by Bus Matrix arbiters. It allows the Bus Matrix to remove the one latency cycle for the last master that accessed the slave. At the end of the cur- 187 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U rent transfer, if no other master request is pending, the slave remains connected to the last master that performed the access. Other non privileged masters still get one latency cycle if they want to access the same slave. This technique can be used for masters that mainly perform single accesses. • Round-Robin Arbitration with Fixed Default Master This is another biased round-robin algorithm. It allows the Bus Matrix arbiters to remove the one latency cycle for the fixed default master per slave. At the end of the current access, the slave remains connected to its fixed default master. Every request attempted by this fixed default master will not cause any latency whereas other non privileged masters will still get one latency cycle. This technique can be used for masters that mainly perform single accesses. 11.4.2.3 Fixed Priority Arbitration This algorithm allows the Bus Matrix arbiters to dispatch the requests from different masters to the same slave by using the fixed priority defined by the user. If two or more master requests are active at the same time, the master with the highest priority number is serviced first. If two or more master requests with the same priority are active at the same time, the master with the highest number is serviced first. For each slave, the priority of each master may be defined through the Priority Registers for Slaves (PRAS and PRBS). 11.4.3 Slave and Master assignation The index number assigned to Bus Matrix slaves and masters are described in the Module Configuration section at the end of this chapter. 188 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 11.5 User Interface Table 11-1.

This results in not having one cycle latency when the last master tries to access the slave again. 2: Fixed Default Master At the end of the current slave access, if no other master request is pending, the slave connects to the fixed master the number that has been written in the FIXED_DEFMSTR field. This results in not having one cycle latency when the fixed master tries to access the slave again. • SLOT_CYCLE: Maximum Number of Allowed Cycles for a Burst When the SLOT_CYCLE limit is reached for a burst, it may be broken by another master trying to access this slave. This limit has been placed to avoid locking a very slow slave when very long bursts are used. This limit must not be very small. Unreasonably small values break every burst and the Bus Matrix arbitrates without performing any data transfer. 16 cycles is a reasonable value for SLOT_CYCLE. 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 – – – – – – – ARBT 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 – – FIXED_DEFMSTR DEFMSTR_TYPE 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 –––––––– 76543210 SLOT_CYCLE 193 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 11.5.3 Bus Matrix Priority Registers A For Slaves Register Name: PRAS0...PRAS15 Access Type: Read/Write Offset: - Reset Value: 0x00000000 • MxPR: Master x Priority Fixed priority of Master x for accessing the selected slave.

Please refer to the Power Manager chapter for details. 11.6.1 Bus Matrix Connections The bus matrix has the several masters and slaves. Each master has its own bus and its own decoder, thus allowing a different memory mapping per master. The master number in the table below can be used to index the HMATRIX control registers. For example, HMATRIX MCFG0 register is associated with the CPU Data master interface. Each slave has its own arbiter, thus allowing a different arbitration per slave. The slave number in the table below can be used to index the HMATRIX control registers. For example, SCFG3 is associated with the Internal SRAM Slave Interface. Accesses to unused areas returns an error result to the master requesting such an access. Table 11-3. HMATRIX Clocks Clock Name Description CLK_HMATRIX Clock for the HMATRIX bus interface Table 11-4.

Interrupt Controller (INTC) Rev: 1.0.2.5 12.1 Features • Autovectored low latency interrupt service with programmable priority – 4 priority levels for regular, maskable interrupts – One Non-Maskable Interrupt • Up to 64 groups of interrupts with up to 32 interrupt requests in each group 12.2 Overview The INTC collects interrupt requests from the peripherals, prioritizes them, and delivers an interrupt request and an autovector to the CPU. The AVR32 architecture supports 4 priority levels for regular, maskable interrupts, and a Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI). The INTC supports up to 64 groups of interrupts. Each group can have up to 32 interrupt request lines, these lines are connected to the peripherals. Each group has an Interrupt Priority Register (IPR) and an Interrupt Request Register (IRR). The IPRs are used to assign a priority level and an autovector to each group, and the IRRs are used to identify the active interrupt request within each group. If a group has only one interrupt request line, an active interrupt group uniquely identifies the active interrupt request line, and the corresponding IRR is not needed. The INTC also provides one Interrupt Cause Register (ICR) per priority level. These registers identify the group that has a pending interrupt of the corresponding priority level. If several groups have a pending interrupt of the same level, the group with the lowest number takes priority. 12.3 Block Diagram Figure 12-1 gives an overview of the INTC. The grey boxes represent registers that can be accessed via the user interface. The interrupt requests from the peripherals (IREQn) and the NMI are input on the left side of the figure. Signals to and from the CPU are on the right side of the figure. 199 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 12-1. INTC Block Diagram 12.4 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 12.4.1 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables CLK_SYNC, the INTC will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. 12.4.2 Clocks The clock for the INTC bus interface (CLK_INTC) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. The INTC sampling logic runs on a clock which is stopped in any of the sleep modes where the system RC oscillator is not running. This clock is referred to as CLK_SYNC. This clock is enabled at reset, and only turned off in sleep modes where the system RC oscillator is stopped. 12.4.3 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the INTC continues normal operation. 12.5 Functional Description All of the incoming interrupt requests (IREQs) are sampled into the corresponding Interrupt Request Register (IRR). The IRRs must be accessed to identify which IREQ within a group that is active. If several IREQs within the same group are active, the interrupt service routine must prioritize between them. All of the input lines in each group are logically ORed together to form the GrpReqN lines, indicating if there is a pending interrupt in the corresponding group. The Request Masking hardware maps each of the GrpReq lines to a priority level from INT0 to INT3 by associating each group with the Interrupt Level (INTLEVEL) field in the corresponding Request Masking OR IREQ0 IREQ1 IREQ2 IREQ31 GrpReq0 Masks SREG Masks I[3-0]M GM INTLEVEL AUTOVECTOR Prioritizer Interrupt Controller CPU OR GrpReqN NMIREQ OR IREQ32 IREQ33 IREQ34 IREQ63 GrpReq1 IRR Registers IPR Registers ICR Registers INT_level, offset INT_level, offset INT_level, offset IPR0 IPR1 IPRn IRR0 IRR1 IRRn ValReq0 ValReq1 ValReqN . . . . . . . . . 200 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Interrupt Priority Register (IPR). The GrpReq inputs are then masked by the mask bits from the CPU status register. Any interrupt group that has a pending interrupt of a priority level that is not masked by the CPU status register, gets its corresponding ValReq line asserted. Masking of the interrupt requests is done based on five interrupt mask bits of the CPU status register, namely Interrupt Level 3 Mask (I3M) to Interrupt Level 0 Mask (I0M), and Global Interrupt Mask (GM). An interrupt request is masked if either the GM or the corresponding interrupt level mask bit is set. The Prioritizer hardware uses the ValReq lines and the INTLEVEL field in the IPRs to select the pending interrupt of the highest priority. If an NMI interrupt request is pending, it automatically gets the highest priority of any pending interrupt. If several interrupt groups of the highest pending interrupt level have pending interrupts, the interrupt group with the lowest number is selected. The INTLEVEL and handler autovector offset (AUTOVECTOR) of the selected interrupt are transmitted to the CPU for interrupt handling and context switching. The CPU does not need to know which interrupt is requesting handling, but only the level and the offset of the handler address. The IRR registers contain the interrupt request lines of the groups and can be read via user interface registers for checking which interrupts of the group are actually active. The delay through the INTC from the peripheral interrupt request is set until the interrupt request to the CPU is set is three cycles of CLK_SYNC. 12.5.1 Non-Maskable Interrupts A NMI request has priority over all other interrupt requests. NMI has a dedicated exception vector address defined by the AVR32 architecture, so AUTOVECTOR is undefined when INTLEVEL indicates that an NMI is pending. 12.5.2 CPU Response When the CPU receives an interrupt request it checks if any other exceptions are pending. If no exceptions of higher priority are pending, interrupt handling is initiated. When initiating interrupt handling, the corresponding interrupt mask bit is set automatically for this and lower levels in status register. E.g, if an interrupt of level 3 is approved for handling, the interrupt mask bits I3M, I2M, I1M, and I0M are set in status register. If an interrupt of level 1 is approved, the masking bits I1M and I0M are set in status register. The handler address is calculated by logical OR of the AUTOVECTOR to the CPU system register Exception Vector Base Address (EVBA). The CPU will then jump to the calculated address and start executing the interrupt handler. Setting the interrupt mask bits prevents the interrupts from the same and lower levels to be passed through the interrupt controller. Setting of the same level mask bit prevents also multiple requests of the same interrupt to happen. It is the responsibility of the handler software to clear the interrupt request that caused the interrupt before returning from the interrupt handler. If the conditions that caused the interrupt are not cleared, the interrupt request remains active. 12.5.3 Clearing an Interrupt Request Clearing of the interrupt request is done by writing to registers in the corresponding peripheral module, which then clears the corresponding NMIREQ/IREQ signal. The recommended way of clearing an interrupt request is a store operation to the controlling peripheral register, followed by a dummy load operation from the same register. This causes a 201 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U pipeline stall, which prevents the interrupt from accidentally re-triggering in case the handler is exited and the interrupt mask is cleared before the interrupt request is cleared. 202 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 12.6 User Interface Table 12-1.

Power Manager (PM) Rev: 4.2.0.4 13.1 Features • Generates clocks and resets for digital logic • On-the-fly frequency change of CPU, HSB and PBx clocks • Sleep modes allow simple disabling of logic clocks and clock sources • Module-level clock gating through maskable peripheral clocks • Wake-up from internal or external interrupts • Automatic identification of reset sources • Supports advanced Shutdown sleep mode 13.2 Overview The Power Manager (PM) provides synchronous clocks used to clock the main digital logic in the device, namely the CPU, and the modules and peripherals connected to the High Speed Bus (HSB) and the Peripheral Buses (PBx). The PM contains advanced power-saving features, allowing the user to optimize the power consumption for an application. The synchronous clocks are divided into a number of clock domains, one for the CPU and HSB, and one for each PBx. The clocks can run at different speeds, allowing the user to save power by running peripherals relatively slow, whilst maintaining high CPU performance. The clocks can be independently changed on-the-fly, without halting any peripherals. The user may adjust CPU and memory speeds according to the dynamic application load, without disturbing or re-configuring active peripherals. Each module has a separate clock, enabling the user to save power by switching off clocks to inactive modules. Clocks and oscillators can be automatically switched off during idle periods by the CPU sleep instruction. The system will return to normal operation when interrupts occur. To achieve minimal power usage, a special sleep mode, called Shutdown is available, where power on all internal logic (CPU, peripherals) and most of the I/O lines is removed, reducing current leakage. Only a small amount of logic, including the 32KHz crystal oscillator (OSC32K) and the AST remain powered. The Power Manager also contains a Reset Controller, which collects all possible reset sources, generates hard and soft resets, and allows the reset source to be identified by software. 210 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 13.3 Block Diagram Figure 13-1. PM Block Diagram 13.4 I/O Lines Description 13.5 Product Dependencies 13.5.1 Interrupt The PM interrupt line is connected to one of the interrupt controllers internal sources. Using the PM interrupt requires the interrupt controller to be configured first. 13.5.2 Clock Implementation In ATUC64/128/256L3/4U, the HSB shares source clock with the CPU. Write attempts to the HSB Clock Select register (HSBSEL) will be ignored, and it will always read the same as the CPU Clock Select register (CPUSEL). The PM bus interface clock (CLK_PM) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. If disabled it can only be reenabled by a reset. 13.5.3 Power Considerations The Shutdown mode is only available for the “3.3V supply mode, with 1.8V regulated I/O lines“ power configuration. Table 13-1. I/O Lines Description Name Description Type Active Level RESET_N Reset Input Low Sleep Controller Synchronous Clock Generator Reset Controller Main Clock Sources Sleep Instruction Power-on Reset Detector(s) Resets Synchronous clocks CPU, HSB, PBx Interrupts External Reset Pin Reset Sources 211 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 13.6 Functional Description 13.6.1 Synchronous Clocks The System RC Oscillator (RCSYS) and a selection of other clock sources can provide the source for the main clock, which is the origin for the synchronous CPU/HSB and PBx module clocks. For details about the other main clock sources, please refer to the Main Clock Control (MCCTRL) register description. The synchronous clocks can run of the main clock and all the 8- bit prescaler settings as long as fCPU  fPBx,. The synchronous clock source can be changed onthe fly, according to variations in application load. The clock domains can be shut down in sleep mode, as described in Section 13.6.3. The module clocks in every synchronous clock domain can be individually masked to minimize power consumption in inactive modules. Figure 13-2. Synchronous Clock Generation 13.6.1.1 Selecting the main clock source The common main clock can be connected to RCSYS or a selection of other clock sources. For details about the other main clock sources, please refer to the MCCTRL register description. By default, the main clock will be connected to RCSYS. The user can connect the main clock to another source by writing to the Main Clock Select (MCCTRL.MCSEL) field. The user must first assure that the source is enabled and ready in order to avoid a deadlock. Care should also be taken so that the new synchronous clock frequencies do not exceed the maximum frequency for each clock domain. 13.6.1.2 Selecting synchronous clock division ratio The main clock feeds an 8-bit prescaler, which can be used to generate the synchronous clocks. By default, the synchronous clocks run on the undivided main clock. The user can select a prescaler division for the CPU clock by writing a one to the CPU Division bit in the CPU Clock Select register (CPUSEL.CPUDIV), and a value to the CPU Clock Select field (CPUSEL.CPUSEL), resulting in a CPU clock frequency: fCPU = fmain / 2(CPUSEL+1) Mask Prescaler Main Clock Sources MCSEL 0 1 CPUSEL CPUDIV Main Clock Sleep Controller CPUMASK CPU Clocks HSB Clocks PBx Clocks Sleep Instruction 212 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Similarly, the PBx clocks can be divided by writing their respective Clock Select (PBxSEL) registers to get the divided PBx frequency: fPBx = fmain / 2(PBSEL+1) The PBx clock frequency can not exceed the CPU clock frequency. The user must select a PBxSEL.PBSEL value greater than or equal to the CPUSEL.CPUSEL value, so that fCPU  fPBx. If the user selects division factors that will result in fCPU< fPBx, the Power Manager will automatically change the PBxSEL.PBSEL/PBDIV values to ensure correct operation (fCPU  fPBx). The HSB clock will always be forced to the same division as the CPU clock. To ensure correct operation, the frequencies must never exceed the specified maximum frequency for each clock domain. For modules connected to the HSB bus, the PB clock frequency must be the same as the CPU clock frequency. 13.6.1.3 Clock Ready flag There is a slight delay from CPUSEL and PBxSEL being written to the new clock setting taking effect. During this interval, the Clock Ready bit in the Status Register (SR.CKRDY) will read as zero. When the clock settings change is completed, the bit will read as one. The Clock Select registers (CPUSEL, PBxSEL) must not be written to while SR.CKRDY is zero, or the system may become unstable or hang. The Clock Ready bit in the Interrupt Status Register (ISR.CKRDY) is set on a SR.CKRDY zeroto-one transition. If the Clock Ready bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR.CKRDY) is set, an interrupt request is generated. IMR.CKRDY is set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER.CKRDY). 13.6.2 Peripheral Clock Masking By default, the clocks for all modules are enabled, regardless of which modules are actually being used. It is possible to disable the clock for a module in the CPU, HSB, or PBx clock domain by writing a zero to the corresponding bit in the corresponding Clock Mask (CPUMASK/HSBMASK/PBxMASK) register. When a module is not clocked, it will cease operation, and its registers cannot be read nor written. The module can be re-enabled later by writing a one to the corresponding mask bit. A module may be connected to several clock domains, in which case it will have several mask bits. The Maskable Module Clocks table in the Clock Mask register description contains a list of implemented maskable clocks. 13.6.2.1 Cautionary note Note that clocks should only be switched off if it is certain that the module will not be used. Switching off the clock for the Flash Controller will cause a problem if the CPU needs to read from the flash. Switching off the clock to the Power Manager, which contains the mask registers, or the corresponding PBx bridge, will make it impossible to write to the mask registers again. In this case, they can only be re-enabled by a system reset. 13.6.3 Sleep Modes In normal operation, all clock domains are active, allowing software execution and peripheral operation. When the CPU is idle, it is possible to switch it and other (optional) clock domains off to save power. This is done by the sleep instruction, which takes the sleep mode index number from Table 13-2 on page 213 as argument. 213 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 13.6.3.1 Entering and exiting sleep modes The sleep instruction will halt the CPU and all modules belonging to the stopped clock domains. The modules will be halted regardless of the bit settings in the mask registers. Clock sources can also be switched off to save power. Some of these have a relatively long start-up time, and are only switched off when very low power consumption is required. The CPU and affected modules are restarted when the sleep mode is exited. This occurs when an interrupt triggers. Note that even if an interrupt is enabled in sleep mode, it may not trigger if the source module is not clocked. 13.6.3.2 Supported sleep modes The following sleep modes are supported. These are detailed in Table 13-2 on page 213. • Idle: The CPU is stopped, the rest of the device is operational. • Frozen: The CPU and HSB modules are stopped, peripherals are operational. • Standby: All synchronous clocks are stopped, and the clock sources are running, allowing for a quick wake-up to normal mode. • Stop: As Standby, but oscillators, and other clock sources are also stopped. 32KHz Oscillator OSC32K(2), RCSYS, AST, and WDT will remain operational. • DeepStop: All synchronous clocks and clock sources are stopped. Bandgap voltage reference and BOD are turned off. OSC32K(2) and RCSYS remain operational. • Static: All clock sources, including RCSYS are stopped. Bandgap voltage reference and BOD are turned off. OSC32K(2) remains operational. • Shutdown: All clock sources, including RCSYS are stopped. Bandgap voltage reference, BOD detector, and Voltage regulator are turned off. OSC32K(2) remains operational. This mode can only be used in the “3.3V supply mode, with 1.8V regulated I/O lines“ configuration (described in Power Considerations chapter). Refer to Section 13.6.4 for more details. Notes: 1. The sleep mode index is used as argument for the sleep instruction. 2. OSC32K will only remain operational if pre-enabled. 3. Clock sources other than those specifically listed in the table. 4. SYSTIMER is the clock for the CPU COUNT and COMPARE registers. The internal voltage regulator is also adjusted according to the sleep mode in order to reduce its power consumption. Table 13-2. Sleep Modes Index(1) Sleep Mode CPU HSB PBx, GCLK Clock Sources(3), SYSTIMER(4) OSC32K(2) RCSYS BOD & Bandgap Voltage Regulator 0 Idle Stop Run Run Run Run Run On Normal mode 1 Frozen Stop Stop Run Run Run Run On Normal mode 2 Standby Stop Stop Stop Run Run Run On Normal mode 3 Stop Stop Stop Stop Stop Run Run On Low power mode 4 DeepStop Stop Stop Stop Stop Run Run Off Low power mode 5 Static Stop Stop Stop Stop Run Stop Off Low power mode 6 Shutdown Stop Stop Stop Stop Run Stop Off Off 214 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 13.6.3.3 Waking from sleep modes There are two types of wake-up sources from sleep mode, synchronous and asynchronous. Synchronous wake-up sources are all non-masked interrupts. Asynchronous wake-up sources are AST, WDT, external interrupts from EIC, external reset, external wake pin (WAKE_N), and all asynchronous wake-ups enabled in the Asynchronous Wake Up Enable (AWEN) register. The valid wake-up sources for each sleep mode are detailed in Table 13-3 on page 214. In Shutdown the only wake-up sources are external reset, external wake-up pin or AST. See Section 13.6.4.3 on page 216. Notes: 1. The sleep mode index is used as argument for the sleep instruction. 2. Only PB modules operational, as HSB module clocks are stopped. 3. WDT only available if clocked from pre-enabled OSC32K. 13.6.3.4 SleepWalking In all sleep modes where the PBx clocks are stopped, except for Shutdown mode, the device can partially wake up if a PBx module asynchronously discovers that it needs its clock. Only the requested clocks and clock sources needed will be started, all other clocks will remain masked to zero. E.g. if the main clock source is OSC0, only OSC0 will be started even if other clock sources were enabled in normal mode. Generic clocks can also be started in a similar way. The state where only requested clocks are running is referred to as SleepWalking. The time spent to start the requested clock is mostly limited by the startup time of the given clock source. This allows PBx modules to handle incoming requests, while still keeping the power consumption at a minimum. When the device is SleepWalking any asynchronous wake-up can wake the device up at any time without stopping the requested PBx clock. All requests to start clocks can be masked by writing to the Peripheral Power Control Register (PPCR), all requests are enabled at reset. During SleepWalking the interrupt controller clock will be running. If an interrupt is pending when entering SleepWalking, it will wake the whole device up. 13.6.3.5 Precautions when entering sleep mode Modules communicating with external circuits should normally be disabled before entering a sleep mode that will stop the module operation. This will prevent erratic behavior caused by entering or exiting sleep modes. Please refer to the relevant module documentation for recommended actions. Table 13-3. Wake-up Sources Index(1) Sleep Mode Wake-up Sources 0 Idle Synchronous, Asynchronous 1 Frozen Synchronous(2), Asynchronous 2 Standby Asynchronous 3 Stop Asynchronous 4 DeepStop Asynchronous 5 Static Asynchronous(3) 6 Shutdown External reset, External wake-up pin 215 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Communication between the synchronous clock domains is disturbed when entering and exiting sleep modes. Bus transactions over clock domains affected by the sleep mode are therefore not recommended. The system may hang if the bus clocks are stopped during a bus transaction. The CPU is automatically stopped in a safe state to ensure that all CPU bus operations are complete when the sleep mode goes into effect. Thus, when entering Idle mode, no further action is necessary. When entering a sleep mode (except Idle mode), all HSB masters must be stopped before entering the sleep mode. In order to let potential PBx write operations complete, the user should let the CPU perform a PBx register read operation before issuing the sleep instruction. This will stall the CPU until pending PBx operations have completed. The Shutdown sleep mode requires extra care. Please refer to Section 13.6.4. 13.6.4 Shutdown Sleep Mode 13.6.4.1 Description The Shutdown sleep mode is available only when the device is used in the “3.3V supply mode, with 1.8V regulated I/O lines“ configuration (refer to the Power Considerations chapter). In this configuration, the voltage regulator supplies both VDDCORE and VDDIO power supplies. When the device enters Shutdown mode, the regulator is turned off and only the following logic is kept powered by VDDIN: – OSC32K using alternate pinout PA13/PA20 – AST core logic (internal counter and alarm detection logic) – Backup Registers – I/O lines PA11, PA13, PA20, PA21, PB04, PB05, and PB10 – RESET_N line The table below lists I/O line functionality that remains operational during Shutdown sleep mode. If no special function is used the I/O line will keep its setting when entering the sleep mode 13.6.4.2 Entering Shutdown sleep mode Before entering the Shutdown sleep mode, a few actions are required: – All modules should normally be disabled before entering Shutdown sleep mode (see Section 13.6.3.5) Table 13-4. I/O Lines Usage During Shutdown Mode Pin Possible Usage During Shutdown Sleep Mode PA11 WAKE_N signal (active low wake-up) PA13 XIN32_2 (OSC32K using alternate pinout) PA20 XOUT32_2 (OSC32K using alternate pinout) PA21 PB04 PB05 PB10 RESET_N Reset pin 216 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U – The POR33 must be masked to avoid spurious resets when the power is back. This must also be done when POR33 is disabled, as POR33 will be enabled automatically when the device wakes up from Shutdown mode. Disable the POR33 by writing a one to the POR33MASK bit in the SCIF.VREGCR register. Due to internal synchronisation, this bit must be read as a one before the sleep instruction is executed by the CPU. Refer to the System Control Interface (SCIF) chapter for more details. – The 32KHz RC oscillator (RC32K) must be running and stable. This is done by writing a one to the EN bit in the SCIF.RC32KCR register. Due to internal synchronisation, this bit must be read as a one to ensure that the oscillator is stable before the sleep instruction is executed by the CPU. As soon as the Shutdown sleep mode is entered, all CPU and peripherals are reset to ensure a consistent state. POR33 and RC32K are automatically disabled to save extra power. 13.6.4.3 Leaving Shutdown sleep mode Exiting Shutdown sleep mode can be done by the events described in Table 13-5. When a wake-up event occurs, the regulator is turned on and the device will wait for VDDCORE to be valid before starting. The Sleep Reset bit in the Reset Cause register (RCAUSE.SLEEP) is then set, allowing software running on the device to distinguish between the first power-up and a wake-up from Shutdown mode. 13.6.4.4 Special consideration regarding waking up from Shutdown sleep mode using the WAKE_N pin By default, the WAKE_N pin will only wake the device up if it is pulled low after entering Shutdown mode. If the WAKE_N is pulled low before the Shutdown mode is entered, it will not wake the device from the Shutdown sleep mode. In order to wake the device by pulling WAKE_N low before entering Shutdown mode, the user has to write a one to the bit corresponding to the WAKEN wake-up source in the AWEN register. In this scenario, the CPU execution will proceed with the next instruction, and the RCAUSE register content will not be altered. 13.6.5 Divided PB Clocks The clock generator in the Power Manager provides divided PBx clocks for use by peripherals that require a prescaled PBx clock. This is described in the documentation for the relevant modules. The divided clocks are directly maskable, and are stopped in sleep modes where the PBx clocks are stopped. Table 13-5. Events That Can Wake up the Device from Shutdown Mode Source How PA11 (WAKE_N) Pulling-down PA11 will wake up the device RESET_N Pulling-down RESET_N pin will wake up the device The device is kept under reset until RESET_N is tied high again AST OSC32K must be set-up to use alternate pinout (XIN32_2 and XOUT32_2) Refer to the SCIF Chapter AST must be configured to use the clock from OSC32K AST must be configured to allow alarm, periodic, or overflow wake-up 217 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 13.6.6 Reset Controller The Reset Controller collects the various reset sources in the system and generates hard and soft resets for the digital logic. The device contains a Power-on Reset (POR) detector, which keeps the system reset until power is stable. This eliminates the need for external reset circuitry to guarantee stable operation when powering up the device. It is also possible to reset the device by pulling the RESET_N pin low. This pin has an internal pull-up, and does not need to be driven externally during normal operation. Table 13-6 on page 217 lists these and other reset sources supported by the Reset Controller. Figure 13-3. Reset Controller Block Diagram In addition to the listed reset types, the JTAG & aWire can keep parts of the device statically reset. See JTAG and aWire documentation for details. Table 13-6. Reset Description Reset Source Description Power-on Reset Supply voltage below the Power-on Reset detector threshold voltage VPOT External Reset RESET_N pin asserted Brown-out Reset VDDCORE supply voltage below the Brown-out detector threshold voltage JTAG Reset Controller RESET_N Power-on Reset Detector(s) OCD Watchdog Reset RCAUSE CPU, HSB, PBx OCD, AST, WDT, Clock Generator Brown-out Detector AWIRE SM33 Detector 218 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Depending on the reset source, when a reset occurs, some parts of the device are not always reset. Only the Power-on Reset (POR) will force a whole device reset. Refer to the table in the Module Configuration section at the end of this chapter for further details. The latest reset cause can be read in the RCAUSE register, and can be read during the applications boot sequence in order to determine proper action. 13.6.6.1 Power-on Reset Detector The Power-on Reset 1.8V (POR18) detector monitors the VDDCORE supply pin and generates a Power-on Reset (POR) when the device is powered on. The POR is active until the VDDCORE voltage is above the power-on threshold level (VPOT). The POR will be re-generated if the voltage drops below the power-on threshold level. See Electrical Characteristics for parametric details. The Power-on Reset 3.3V (POR33) detector monitors the internal regulator supply pin and generates a Power-on Reset (POR) when the device is powered on. The POR is active until the internal regulator supply voltage is above the regulator power-on threshold level (VPOT). The POR will be re-generated if the voltage drops below the regulator power-on threshold level. See Electrical Characteristics for parametric details. 13.6.6.2 External Reset The external reset detector monitors the RESET_N pin state. By default, a low level on this pin will generate a reset. 13.6.7 Clock Failure Detector This mechanism automatically switches the main clock source to the safe RCSYS clock when the main clock source fails. This may happen when an external crystal is selected as a source for the main clock and the crystal is not mounted on the board. The main clock is compared with RCSYS, and if no rising edge of the main clock is detected during one RCSYS period, the clock is considered to have failed. The detector is enabled by writing a one to the Clock Failure Detection Enable bit in the Clock Failure Detector Control Register (CFDCTRL.CFDEN). As soon as the detector is enabled, the clock failure detector will monitor the divided main clock. Note that the detector does not monitor the main clock if RCSYS is the source of the main clock, or if the main clock is temporarily not available (startup-time after a wake-up, switching timing etc.), or in sleep mode where the main clock is driven by the RCSYS (Stop and DeepStop mode). When a clock failure is detected, the main clock automatically switches to the RCSYS clock and the Clock Failure Detected (CFD) interrupt is generated if enabled. The MCCTRL register is also changed by hardware to indicate that the main clock comes from RCSYS. 13.6.8 Interrupts The PM has a number of interrupt sources: • AE - Access Error, SM33 Reset Internal regulator supply voltage below the SM33 threshold voltage. This generates a Power-on Reset. Watchdog Timer See Watchdog Timer documentation OCD See On-Chip Debug documentation Reset Source Description 219 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U – A lock protected register is written to without first being unlocked. • CKRDY - Clock Ready: – New Clock Select settings in the CPUSEL/PBxSEL registers have taken effect. (A zero-to-one transition on SR.CKRDY is detected). • CFD - Clock Failure Detected: – The system detects that the main clock is not running. The Interrupt Status Register contains one bit for each interrupt source. A bit in this register is set on a zero-to-one transition of the corresponding bit in the Status Register (SR), and cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Clear Register (ICR). The interrupt sources will generate an interrupt request if the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Mask Register is set. The interrupt sources are ORed together to form one interrupt request. The Power Manager will generate an interrupt request if at least one of the bits in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR) is set. Bits in IMR are set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER), and cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Disable Register (IDR). The interrupt request remains active until the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Status Register (ISR) is cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Clear Register (ICR). Because all the interrupt sources are ORed together, the interrupt request from the Power Manager will remain active until all the bits in ISR are cleared. 220 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 13.7 User Interface Note: 1.

If the 120MHz RC oscillator is selected as main clock source, it must be divided by at least 4 before being used as clock source for the CPU. This division is selected by writing to the CPUSEL and CPUDIV bits in the CPUSEL register, before switching to RC120M as main clock source. Note that this register is protected by a lock. To write to this register the UNLOCK register has to be written first.

Table 14-1.

The programmer must first program the GPIO controller to assign these pins to their peripheral function. If the I/O pins of the SCIF are not used by the application, they can be used for other purposes by the GPIO controller. Oscillator pins are also multiplexed with GPIO. When oscillators are used, the related pins are controlled directly by the SCIF, overriding GPIO settings. RC32OUT will be output after reset, and the GPIO controller can assign this pin to other peripheral function after start-up. 14.4.2 Power Management The BODs and all the oscillators, except the 32KHz oscillator (OSC32K) are turned off in some sleep modes and turned automatically on when the device wakes up. The Voltage Regulator is set in low power mode in some sleep modes and automatically set back in normal mode when the device wakes up. Please refer to the Power Manager chapter for details. The BOD control registers will not be reset by the Power Manager on a BOD reset. 14.4.3 Clocks The SCIF controls all oscillators in the device. The oscillators can be used as source for the CPU and peripherals. Selection of source is done in the Power Manager. The oscillators can also be used as source for generic clocks. 14.4.4 Interrupts The SCIF interrupt request line is connected to the interrupt controller. Using the SCIF interrupt requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 14.4.5 Debug Operation The SCIF does not interact with debug operations. 14.5 Functional Description 14.5.1 Oscillator (OSC) Operation Rev: 1.1.1.0 The main oscillator (OSCn) is designed to be used with an external 0.450 to 16MHz crystal and two biasing capacitors, as shown in the Electrical Characteristics chapter, or with an external clock connected to the XIN. The oscillator can be used as source for the main clock in the device, as described in the Power Manager chapter. The oscillator can be used as source for the generic clocks, as described in the Generic Clocks section. The oscillator is disabled by default after reset. When the oscillator is disabled, the XIN and XOUT pins can be used as general purpose I/Os. When the oscillator is enabled, the XIN and XOUT pins are controlled directly by the SCIF, overriding GPIO settings. When the oscillator is configured to use an external clock, the clock must be applied to the XIN pin while the XOUT pin can be used as general purpose I/O. The oscillator is enabled by writing a one to the Oscillator Enable bit in the Oscillator Control register (OSCCTRLn.OSCEN). Operation mode (external clock or crystal) is selected by writing to the Oscillator Mode bit in OSCCTRLn (OSCCTRLn.MODE). The oscillator is automatically dis- 246 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U abled in certain sleep modes to reduce power consumption, as described in the Power Manager chapter. After a hard reset, or when waking up from a sleep mode where the oscillators were disabled, the oscillator will need a certain amount of time to stabilize on the correct frequency. This startup time can be set in the OSCCTRLn register. The SCIF masks the oscillator outputs during the start-up time, to ensure that no unstable clocks propagate to the digital logic. The OSCn Ready bit in the Power and Clock Status Register (PCLKSR.OSCnRDY) is set when the oscillator is stable and ready to be used as clock source. An interrupt can be generated on a zero-to-one transition on OSCnRDY if the OSCnRDY bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR.OSCnRDY) is set. This bit is set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER.OSCnRDY). 14.5.2 32KHz Oscillator (OSC32K) Operation Rev: 1.1.0.1 The 32KHz oscillator operates as described for the oscillator above. The 32KHz oscillator can be used as source clock for the Asynchronous Timer (AST) and the Watchdog Timer (WDT). The 32KHz oscillator can also be used as source for the generic clocks. The oscillator is disabled by default after reset. When the oscillator is disabled, the XIN32 and XOUT32 pins can be used as general-purpose I/Os. When the oscillator is enabled, the XIN32 and XOUT32 pins are controlled directly by the SCIF, overriding GPIO settings. When the oscillator is configured to use an external clock, the clock must be applied to the XIN32 pin while the XOUT32 pin can be used as general-purpose I/O. The oscillator is enabled writing a one to the OSC32 Enable bit in the 32KHz Oscillator Control Register (OSCCTRL32OSC32EN). The oscillator is disabled by writing a zero to the OSC32EN bit, while keeping the other bits unchanged. Writing to OSC32EN while also writing to other bits may result in unpredictable behavior. Operation mode (external clock or crystal) is selected by writing to the Oscillator Mode bit in OSCCTRL32 (OSCCTRL32.MODE). The oscillator is an ultra-low-power design and remains enabled in all sleep modes. The start-up time of the 32KHz oscillator is selected by writing to the Oscillator Start-up Time field in the OSCCTRL32 register (OSCCTRL32.STARTUP). The SCIF masks the oscillator output during the start-up time, to ensure that no unstable clock cycles propagate to the digital logic. The OSC32 Ready bit in the Power and Clock Status Register (PCLKSR.OSC32RDY) is set when the oscillator is stable and ready to be used as clock source. An interrupt can be generated on a zero-to-one transition on PCLKSR.OSC32RDY if the OSC32RDY bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR.OSC32RDY) is set. This bit is set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER.OSC32RDY). .As a crystal oscillator usually requires a very long start-up time (up to 1 second), the 32KHz oscillator will keep running across resets, except a Power-on Reset (POR). The 32KHz oscillator also has a 1KHz output. This is enabled by writing a one to the Enable 1KHz output bit in OSCCTRL32 register (OSCCTRL32.EN1K). If the 32KHz output clock is not needed when 1K is enabled, this can be disabled by writing a zero to the Enable 32KHz output bit in the OSCCTRL32 register (OSCCTRL32.EN32K). OSCCTRL32.EN32K is set after a POR. The 32KHz oscillator has two possible sets of pins. To select between them write to the Pin Select bit in the OSCCTRL32 register (OSCCTRL32.PINSEL). If the 32KHz oscillator is to be 247 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U used in Shutdown mode, PINSEL must be written to one, and XIN32_2 and XOUT32_2 must be used. 14.5.3 PLL Operation Rev: 1.1.0.0 The device contains one Phase Locked Loop (PLL), which is controlled by the Phase Locked Loop Interface (PLLIF). The PLL is disabled by default, but can be enabled to provide high frequency source clocks for synchronous or generic clocks. The PLL can use different clock sources as reference clock, please refer to the “PLL Clock Sources” table in the SCIF Module Configuration section for details. The PLL output is divided by a multiplication factor, and the PLL compares the phase of the resulting clock to the reference clock. The PLL will adjust its output frequency until the two compared clocks phases are equal, thus locking the output frequency to a multiple of the reference clock frequency. When the PLL is switched on, or when changing the clock source or multiplication factor for the PLL, the PLL is unlocked and the output frequency is undefined. The PLL clock for the digital logic is automatically masked when the PLL is unlocked, to prevent the connected digital logic from receiving a too high frequency and thus become unstable. The PLL can be configured by writing the PLL Control Register (PLLn). To prevent unexpected writes due to software bugs, write access to the PLLn register is protected by a locking mechanism, for details please refer to the UNLOCK register description. Figure 14-1. PLL with Control Logic and Filters 14.5.3.1 Enabling the PLL Before the PLL is enabled it must be set up correctly. The PLL Oscillator Select field (PLLOSC) selects a source for the reference clock. The PLL Multiply Factor (PLLMUL) and PLL Division Phase Detector Output Divider Source clocks PLLOSC PLLOPT[0] PLLMUL Lock bit Mask PLL clock Input Divider PLLDIV 1/2 PLLOPT[1] 0 1 VCO fvco fPLL Lock Counter fREF 248 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Factor (PLLDIV) fields must be written with the multiplication and division factors, respectively. The PLLMUL must always be greater than 1, creating the PLL frequency: fvco = (PLLMUL+1)/PLLDIV • fREF, if PLLDIV >0 fvco = 2•(PLLMUL+1) • fREF, if PLLDIV = 0 The PLL Options (PLLOPT) field should be configured to proper values according to the PLL operating frequency. The PLLOPT field can also be configured to divide the output frequency of the PLL by 2 and Wide-Bandwidth mode, which allows faster startup time and out-of-lock time. It is not possible to change any of the PLL configuration bits when the PLL is enabled, Any write to PLLn while the PLL is enabled will be discarded. After setting up the PLL, the PLL is enabled by writing a one to the PLL Enable (PLLEN) bit in the PLLn register. 14.5.3.2 Disabling the PLL The PLL is disabled by writing a zero to the PLL Enable (PLLEN) bit in the PLLn register. After disabling the PLL, the PLL configuration fields becomes writable. 14.5.3.3 PLL Lock The lock signal for each PLL is available as a PLLLOCKn flag in the PCLKSR register. If the lock for some reason is lost, the PLLLOCKLOSTn flag in PCLKSR register will be set. An interrupt can be generated on a 0 to 1 transition of these bits. 14.5.4 Digital Frequency Locked Loop (DFLL) Operation Rev: 2.1.0.1 The DFLL is controlled by the Digital Frequency Locked Loop Interface (DFLLIF). The DFLL is disabled by default, but can be enabled to provide a high-frequency source clock for synchronous and generic clocks. Features: • Internal oscillator with no external components • 20-150MHz frequency in closed loop mode • Can operate standalone as a high-frequency programmable oscillator in open loop mode • Can operate as an accurate frequency multiplier against a known frequency in closed loop mode • Optional spread-spectrum clock generation • Very high-frequency multiplication supported - can generate all frequencies from a 32KHz clock The DFLL can operate in both open loop mode and closed loop mode. In closed loop mode a low frequency clock with high accuracy can be used as reference clock to get high accuracy on the output clock (CLK_DFLL). To prevent unexpected writes due to software bugs, write access to the configuration registers is protected by a locking mechanism. For details please refer to the UNLOCK register description. 249 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 14-2. DFLLIF Block Diagram 14.5.4.1 Enabling the DFLL The DFLL is enabled by writing a one to the Enable bit (EN) in the DFLLn Configuration Register (DFLLnCONF). No other bits or fields in DFLLnCONF must be changed simultaneously, or before the DFLL is enabled. 14.5.4.2 Internal synchronization Due to multiple clock domains in the DFLLIF, values in the DFLLIF configuration registers need to be synchronized to other clock domains. The status of this synchronization can be read from the Power and Clocks Status Register (PCLKSR). Before writing to a DFLLIF configuration register, the user must check that the DFLLn Synchronization Ready bit (DFLLnRDY) in PCLKSR is set. When this bit is set, the DFLL can be configured, and CLK_DFLL is ready to be used. Any write to a DFLLIF configuration register while DFLLnRDY is cleared will be ignored. Before reading the value in any of the DFLL configuration registers a one must be written to the Synchronization bit (SYNC) in the DFLLn Synchronization Register (DFLLnSYNC). The DFLL configuration registers are ready to be read when PCLKSR.DFLLnRDY is set. 14.5.4.3 Disabling the DFLL The DFLL is disabled by writing a zero to DFLLnCONF.EN. No other bits or fields in DFLLnCONF must be changed simultaneously. After disabling the DFLL, PCLKSR.DFLLnRDY will not be set. It is not required to wait for PCLKSR.DFLLnRDY to be set before re-enabling the DFLL. 14.5.4.4 Open loop operation After enabling the DFLL, open loop mode is selected by writing a zero to the Mode Selection bit (MODE) in DFLLnCONF. When operating in open loop mode the output frequency of the DFLL will be determined by the values written to the Coarse Calibration Value field (COARSE) and the Fine Calibration Value field (FINE) in the DFLLnCONF register. When writing to COARSE and DFLL COARSE FINE 8 9 CLK_DFLL IMUL FMUL 32 CLK_DFLLIF_REF FREQUENCY TUNER DFLLLOCKC DFLLLOCKLOSTC DFLLLOCKF DFLLLOCKLOSTF DFLLLOCKA DFLLLOCKLOSTA CSTEP FSTEP 8+9 CLK_DFLLIF_DITHER 250 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U FINE, be aware that the output frequency must not exceed the maximum frequency of the device after the division in the clock generator. It is possible to change the value of COARSE and FINE, and thereby the output frequency of the DFLL, while the DFLL is enabled and in use. The DFLL clock is ready to be used when PCLKSR.DFLLnRDY is cleared after enabling the DFLL. The frequency range in open loop mode is 20-150MHz, but maximum frequency can be higher, and the minimum frequency can be lower. The best way to start the DFLL at a specific frequency in open loop mode is to first configure it for closed loop mode, see Section 14.5.4.5. When a lock is achieved, read back the COARSE and FINE values and switch to open loop mode using these values. An alternative approach is to use the Frequency Meter (FREQM) to monitor the DFLL frequency and adjust the COARSE and FINE values based on measurement results form the FREQM. Please refer to the FREQM chapter for more information on how to use it. Note that the output frequency of the DFLL will drift when in open loop mode due to temperature and voltage changes. Please refer to the Electrical Characteristics chapter for details. 14.5.4.5 Closed loop operation The DFLL must be correctly configured before closed loop operation can be enabled. After enabling the DFLL, enable and select a reference clock (CLK_DFLLIF_REF). CLK_DFLLIF_REF is a generic clock, please refer to Generic Clocks section for details. Then set the maximum step size allowed in finding the COARSE and FINE values by setting the Coarse Maximum Step field (CSTEP) and Fine Maximum Step field (FSTEP) in the DFLLn Maximum Step Register (DFLLnSTEP). A small step size will ensure low overshoot on the output frequency, but can typically result in longer lock times. A high value might give a big overshoot, but can typically give faster locking. DFLLnSTEP.CSTEP and DFLLnSTEP.FSTEP must be lower than 50% of the maximum value of DFLLnCONF.COARSE and DFLLnCONF.FINE respectively. Then select the multiplication factor in the Integer Multiply Factor field (IMUL) and the Fractional Multiply field (FMUL) in the DFLLn Multiplier Register (DFLLnMUL). Care must be taken when choosing IMUL and FMUL so the output frequency does not exceed the maximum frequency of the device. Start the closed loop mode by writing a one to DFLLnCONF.MODE bit. The frequency of CLK_DFLL (fDFLL) is given by: where fREF is the frequency of CLK_DFLLIF_REF. COARSE and FINE in DFLLnCONF are readonly in closed loop mode, and are controlled by the DFLLIF to meet user specified frequency. The values in COARSE when the closed loop mode is enabled is used by the frequency tuner as a starting point for COARSE. Setting COARSE to a value close to the final value will reduce the time needed to get a lock on COARSE. Frequency locking The locking of the frequency in closed loop mode is divided into three stages. In the COARSE stage the control logic quickly finds the correct value for DFLLnCONF.COARSE and thereby sets the output frequency to a value close to the correct frequency. The DFLLn Locked on Coarse Value bit (DFLLnLOCKC) in PCLKSR will be set when this is done. In the FINE stage the control logic tunes the value in DFLLnCONF.FINE so the output frequency will be very close to the desired frequency. DFLLn Locked on Fine Value bit (DFLLnLOCKF) in PCLKSR will be set when this is done. In the ACCURATE stage the DFLL frequency tuning mechanism uses dithering on the FINE bits to obtain an accurate average output frequency. DFLLn Locked on Accurate Value bit (DFLLnLOCKA) in PCLKSR will be set when this is done. The ACCURATE stage will f DFLL IMUL FMUL 216 + -----------------    f REF = 251 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U only be executed if the Dithering Enable bit (DITHER) in DFLLnCONF has been written to a one. If DITHER is written to a zero DFLLnLOCKA will never occur. If dithering is enabled, the frequency of the dithering is decided by a generic clock (CLK_DFLLIF_DITHER). This clock has to be set up correctly before enabling dithering. Please refer to the Generic Clocks section for details. Figure 14-3. DFLL Closed loop State Diagram When dithering is enabled the accuracy of the average output frequency of the DFLL will be higher. However, the actual frequency will be alternating between two frequencies. If a fixed frequency is required, the dithering should not be enabled. Figure 14-4. DFLL Locking in Closed loop CLK_DFLL is ready to be used when the DFLLn Synchronization Ready bit (DFLLnRDY) in PCLKSR is set after enabling the DFLL. However, the accuracy of the output frequency depends on which locks are set. For lock times, please refer to the Electrical Characteristics chapter. Measure fDFLLn Calculate new COARSE value DFLLnLOCKC 0 Calculate new FINE value DFLLnLOCKF 0 1 1 DFLLnLOCKA Calculate new dithering dutycycle 0 Compensate for drift 1 DITHER 1 Compensate for drift 0 Initial frequency Target frequency DFLLnLOCKC DFLLnLOCKF DFLLnLOCKA 252 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Drift compensation The frequency tuner will automatically compensate for drift in the fDFLL without losing either of the locks. If the FINE value overflows or underflows, which should normally not happen, but could occur due to large drift in temperature and voltage, all locks will be lost, and the COARSE and FINE values will be recalibrated as described earlier. If any lock is lost the corresponding bit in PCLKSR will be set, DFLLn Lock Lost on Coarse Value bit (DFLLnLOCKLOSTC) for lock lost on COARSE value, DFLLn Lock Lost on Fine Value bit (DFLLnLOCKLOSTF) for lock lost on FINE value and DFLLn Lock Lost on Accurate Value bit (DFLLnLOCKLOSTA) for lock lost on ACCURATE value. The corresponding lock status bit will be cleared when the lock lost bit is set, and vice versa. Reference clock stop detection If CLK_DFLLIF_REF stops or is running at a very slow frequency, the DFLLn Reference Clock Stopped bit (DFLLnRCS) in PCLKSR will be set. Note that the detection of the clock stop will take a long time. The DFLLIF operate as if it was in open loop mode if it detects that the reference clock has stopped. This means that the COARSE and FINE values will be kept constant while PCLKSR.DFLLnRCS is set. Closed loop mode operation will automatically resume if the CLK_DFLLIF_REF is restarted, and compensate for any drift during the time CLK_DFLLIF_REF was stopped. No locks will be lost. Frequency error measurement The ratio between CLK_DFLLIF_REF and CLK_DFLL is measured automatically by the DFLLIF. The difference between this ratio and DFLLnMUL is stored in the Multiplication Ratio Difference field (RATIODIFF) in the DFLLn Ratio Register (DFLLnRATIO). The relative error on CLK_DFLL compared to the target frequency can be calculated as follows: where is the number of reference clock cycles the DFLLIF is using for calculating the ratio. 14.5.4.6 Dealing with delay in the DFLL The time from selecting a new frequency until this frequency is output by the DFLL, can be up to several micro seconds. If the difference between the desired output frequency (CLK_DFLL) and the frequency of CLK_DFLLIF_REF is small this can lead to an instability in the DFLLIF locking mechanism, which can prevent the DFLLIF from achieving locks. To avoid this, a chill cycle where the CLK_DFLL frequency is not measured can be enabled. The chill cycle is enabled by writing a one to the Chill Cycle Enable (CCEN) bit in the DFLLnCONF register. Enabling chill cycles might double the lock time, Another solution to the same problem can be to use less strict lock requirements. This is called Quick Lock (QL), which is enabled by writing a one to the Quick Lock Enable (QLEN) bit in the DFLLnCONF register. The QL might lead to bigger spread in the outputted frequency than chill cycles, but the average output frequency is the same. If the target frequency is below 40MHz, one of these methods should always be used. 14.5.4.7 Spread Spectrum Generator (SSG) When the DFLL is used as the main clock source for the device, the EMI radiated from the device will be synchronous to fDFLL. To provide better Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) the error RATIODIFF fREF  2NUMREF f DFLL  = ------------------------------------------------ 2NUMREF 253 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U DFLLIF can provide a clock with the energy spread in the frequency domain. This is done by adding or subtracting values from the FINE value. SSG is enabled by writing a one to the Enable bit (EN) in the DFLLn Spread Spectrum Generator Control Register (DFLLnSSG). A generic clock sets the rate at which the SSG changes the frequency of the DFLL clock to generate a spread spectrum (CLK_DFLLIF_DITHER). This is the same clock used by the dithering mechanism. The frequency of this clock should be higher than fREF to ensure that the DFLLIF can lock. Please refer to the Generic clocks section for details. Optionally, the clock ticks can be qualified by a Pseudo Random Binary Sequence (PRBS) if the PRBS bit in DFLLnSSG is one. This reduces the modulation effect of CLK_DFLLIF_DITHER frequency onto fDFLL. The amplitude of the frequency variation can be selected by setting the SSG Amplitude field (AMPLITUDE) in DFLLnSSG. If AMPLITUDE is zero the SSG will toggle on the LSB of the FINE value. If AMPLITUDE is one the SSG will add the sequence {1,-1, 0} to FINE. The step size of the SSG is selected by writing to the SSG Step Size field (STEPSIZE) in DFLLnSSG. STEPSIZE equal to zero or one will result in a step size equal to one. If the step size is set to n, the output value from the SSG will be incremented/decremented by n on every tick of the source clock. The Spread Spectrum Generator is available in both open and closed loop mode. When spread spectrum is enabled in closed loop mode, and the AMPLITUDE is high, an overflow/underflow in FINE is more likely to occur. Figure 14-5. Spread Spectrum Generator Block Diagram. 14.5.4.8 Wake from sleep modes The DFLLIF may optionally reset its lock bits when waking from a sleep mode which disables the DFLL. This is configured by the Lose Lock After Wake (LLAW) bit in DFLLnCONF register. If DFLLnCONF.LLAW is written to zero the DFLL will be re-enabled and start running with the same configuration as before going to sleep even if the reference clock is not available. The locks will not be lost. When the reference clock has restarted, the FINE tracking will quickly compensate for any frequency drift during sleep. If a one is written to DFLLnCONF.LLAW before going to a sleep mode where the DFLL is turned off, the DFLLIF will lose all its locks when waking up, and needs to regain these through the full lock sequence. 14.5.4.9 Accuracy There are mainly three factors that decide the accuracy of the fDFLL. These can be tuned to obtain maximum accuracy when fine lock is achieved. Pseudorandom Binary Sequence Spread Spectrum Generator FINE 9 To DFLL CLK_DFLLIF_DITHER AMPLITUDE, STEPSIZE PRBS 1 0 254 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • FINE resolution: The frequency step between two FINE values. This is relatively smaller for high output frequencies. • Resolution of the measurement: If the resolution of the measured fDFLL is low, i.e. the ratio between CLK_DFLL frequency and CLK_DFLLIF_REF is small, then the DFLLIF might lock at a frequency that is lower than the targeted frequency. It is recommended to use a reference clock frequency of 32 KHz or lower to avoid this issue for low target frequencies. • The accuracy of the reference clock. 14.5.4.10 Interrupts A interrupt can be generated on a zero-to-one transaction on DFLLnLOCKC, DFLLnLOCKF, DFLLnLOCKA, DFLLnLOCKLOSTC, DFLLnLOCKLOSTF, DFLLnLOCKLOSTA, DFLLnRDY or DFLLnRCS. 14.5.5 Brown-Out Detection (BOD) Rev: 1.2.0.0 The Brown-Out Detector monitors the VDDCORE supply pin and compares the supply voltage to the brown-out detection level. The BOD is disabled by default, and is enabled by writing to the BOD Control field in the BOD Control Register (BOD.CTRL). This field can also be updated by flash fuses. The BOD is powered by VDDIO and will not be powered during Shutdown sleep mode. To prevent unexpected writes to the BOD register due to software bugs, write access to this register is protected by a locking mechanism. For details please refer to the UNLOCK register description. To prevent further modifications by software, the content of the BOD register can be set as readonly by writing a one to the Store Final Value bit (BOD.SFV). When this bit is one, software can not change the BOD register content. This bit is cleared after flash calibration and after a reset except after a BOD reset. The brown-out detection level is selected by writing to the BOD Level field in BOD (BOD.LEVEL). Please refer to the Electrical Characteristics chapter for parametric details. If the BOD is enabled (BOD.CTRL is one or two) and the supply voltage goes below the detection level, the Brown-Out Detection bit in the Power and Clocks Status Register (PCLKSR.BODDET) is set. This bit is cleared when the supply voltage goes above the detection level. An interrupt request will be generated on a zero-to-one transition on PCLKSR.BODDET if the Brown-Out Detection bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR.BODDET) is set. This bit is set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER.BODDET). If BOD.CTRL is one, a BOD reset will be generated when the supply voltage goes below the detection level. If BOD.CTRL is two, the device will not be reset. Writing a one to the BOD Hysteresis bit in BOD (BOD.HYST) will add a hysteresis on the BOD detection level. Note that the BOD must be disabled before changing BOD.LEVEL, to avoid spurious reset or interrupt. After enabling the BOD, the BOD output will be masked during one half of a RCSYS clock cycle and two main clocks cycles to avoid false results. When the JTAG or aWire is enabled, the BOD reset and interrupt are masked. 255 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The CTRL, HYST, and LEVEL fields in the BOD Control Register are loaded factory defined calibration values from flash fuses after a reset. If the Flash Calibration Done bit in the BOD Control Register (BOD.FCD) is zero, the flash calibration will be redone after any reset, and the BOD.FCD bit will be set before program execution starts in the CPU. If BOD.FCD is one, the flash calibration is redone after any reset except for a BOD reset. The BOD.FCD bit is cleared after a reset, except for a BOD reset. BOD.FCD is set when these fields have been updated after a flash calibration. It is possible to override the values in the BOD.CTRL, BOD.HYST, and BOD.LEVEL fields after reset by writing to the BOD Control Register. Please refer to the Fuse Settings chapter for more details about BOD fuses and how to program the fuses. Figure 14-6. BOD Block Diagram 14.5.6 Bandgap Rev: 1.2.0.0 The flash memory, the BOD, and the Temperature Sensor need a stable voltage reference to operate. This reference voltage is provided by an internal Bandgap voltage reference. This reference is automatically turned on at start-up and turned off during some sleep modes to save power. The Bandgap reference is powered by the internal regulator supply voltage and will not be powered during Shutdown sleep mode. Please refer to the Power Manager chapter for details.

Please refer to the Power Manager chapter for details. The system RC oscillator operates at a nominal frequency of 115kHz, and is calibrated using the Calibration Value field (CALIB) in the RC Oscillator Calibration Register (RCCR). After a Power-on Reset (POR), the RCCR.CALIB field is loaded with a factory defined value stored in the Flash fuses. Please refer to the Fuse setting chapter for more details about RCCR fuses and how to program the fuses. If the Flash Calibration Done (FCD) bit in the RCCR is zero at any reset, the flash calibration will be redone and the RCCR.FCD bit will be set before program execution starts in the CPU. If the RCCR.FCD is one, the flash calibration will only be redone after a Power-on Reset. To prevent unexpected writes to RCCR due to software bugs, write access to this register is protected by a locking mechanism. For details please refer to the UNLOCK register description. Although it is not recommended to override default factory settings, it is still possible to override the default values by writing to RCCR.CALIB. 14.5.8 Voltage Regulator (VREG) Rev: 1.1.0.0 The embedded voltage regulator can be used to provide the VDDCORE voltage from the internal regulator supply voltage. It is controlled by the Voltage Regulator Calibration Register (VREGCR). The voltage regulator is enabled by default at start-up but can be disabled by software if an external voltage is provided on the VDDCORE pin. The VREGCR also contains bits to control the POR18 detector and the POR33 detector. 14.5.8.1 Register protection To prevent unexpected writes to VREGCR due to software bugs, write access to this register is protected by a locking mechanism. For details please refer to the UNLOCK register description. To prevent further modifications by software, the content of the VREGCR register can be set as read-only by writing a one to the Store Final Value bit (VREGCR.SFV). Once this bit is set, software can not change the VREGCR content until a Power-on Reset (POR) is applied. 14.5.8.2 Controlling voltage regulator output The voltage regulator is always enabled at start-up, i.e. after a POR or when waking up from Shutdown mode. It can be disabled by software by writing a zero to the Enable bit (VREGCR.EN). This bit is set after a POR. Because of internal synchronization, the voltage regulator is not immediately enabled or disabled. The actual state of the voltage regulator can be read from the ON bit (VREGCR.ON). The voltage regulator output level is controlled by the Select VDD field (SELVDD) in VREGCR. The default value of this field corresponds to a regulator output voltage of 1.8V. Other values of this field are not defined, and it is not recommended to change the value of this field. The Voltage Regulator OK bit (VREGCR.VREGOK) bit indicates when the voltage regulator output has reached the voltage threshold level. 257 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 14.5.8.3 Factory calibration After a Power-on Reset (POR) the VREGCR.CALIB field is loaded with a factory defined calibration value. This value is chosen so that the normal output voltage of the regulator after a powerup is 1.8V. Although it is not recommended to override default factory settings, it is still possible to override these default values by writing to VREGCR.CALIB. If the Flash Calibration Done bit in VREGCR (VREGCR.FCD) is zero, the flash calibration will be redone after any reset, and the VREGCR.FCD bit will be set before program execution starts in the CPU. If VREGCR.FCD is one, the flash calibration will only be redone after a POR. 14.5.8.4 POR33 control VREGCR includes control bits for the Power-on Reset 3.3V (POR33) detector that monitors the internal regulator supply voltage. The POR33 detector is enabled by default but can be disabled by software to reduce power consumption. The 3.3V Supply Monitor (SM33) can then be used to monitor the regulator power supply. The POR33 detector is disabled by writing a zero to the POR33 Enable bit (VREGCR.POR33EN). Because of internal synchronisation, the POR33 detector is not immediately enabled or disabled. The actual state of the POR33 detector can be read from the POR33 Status bit (VREGCR.POR33STATUS). The 32kHz RC oscillator (RC32K) must be enabled before disabling the POR33 detector. Once the POR33 detector has been disabled, the RC32K oscillator can be disabled again. To avoid spurious resets, it is mandatory to mask the Power-on Reset when enabling or disabling the POR33 detector. The Power-on Reset generated by the POR33 detector can be ignored by writing a one to the POR33 Mask bit (VREGCR.POR33MASK). Because of internal synchronization, the masking is not immediately effective, so software should wait for the VREGCR.POR33MASK to read as a one before assuming the masking is effective. The output of the POR33 detector is zero if the internal regulator supply voltage is below the POR33 power-on threshold level, and one if the internal regulator supply voltage is above the POR33 power-on threshold level. This output (before masking) can be read from the POR33 Value bit (VREGCR.POR33VALUE). 14.5.8.5 POR18 control VREGCR includes control bits for the Power-on Reset 1.8V (POR18) detector that monitors the VDDCORE voltage. The POR18 detector is enabled by default but can be disabled by software to reduce power consumption. The POR18 detector is disabled by writing a zero to the POR18 Enable bit (VREGCR.POR18EN). Because of internal synchronization, the POR18 detector is not immediately enabled or disabled. The actual state of the POR18 detector can be read from the POR18 Status bit (VREGCR.POR18STATUS). Please note that the POR18 detector cannot be disabled while the JTAG or aWire debug interface is used. Writing a zero to VREGCR.POR18EN bit will have no effect. To avoid spurious resets, it is mandatory to mask the Power-on Reset when enabling or disabling the POR18 detector. The Power-on Reset generated by the POR18 detector can be ignored by writing a one to the POR18 Mask bit (VREGCR.POR18MASK). Because of internal 258 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U synchronisation, the masking is not immediately effective, so software should wait for the VREGCR.POR18MASK to read as one before assuming the masking is effective. The output of the POR18 detector is zero if the VDDCORE voltage is below the POR18 poweron threshold level, and one if the VDDCORE voltage is above the POR18 power-on threshold level. The output of the POR18 detector (before masking) can be read from the POR18 Value bit (VREGCR.POR18VALUE). 14.5.9 3.3 V Supply Monitor (SM33) Rev: 1.1.0.0 The 3.3V supply monitor is a specific voltage detector for the internal regulator supply voltage. It will indicate if the internal regulator supply voltage is above the minimum required input voltage threshold. The user can choose to generate either a Power-on Reset (POR) and an interrupt request, or only an interrupt request, when the internal regulator supply voltage drops below this threshold. Please refer to the Electrical Characteristics chapter for parametric details. 14.5.9.1 Register protection To prevent unexpected writes to SM33 register due to software bugs, write access to this register is protected by a locking mechanism. For details please refer to the UNLOCK register description. To prevent further modifications by software, the content of the register can be set as read-only by writing a one to the Store Final Value bit (SM33.SFV). When this bit is one, software can not change the SM33 register content until the device is reset. 14.5.9.2 Operating modes The SM33 is disabled by default and is enabled by writing to the Supply Monitor Control field in the SM33 control register (SM33.CTRL). The current state of the SM33 can be read from the Supply Monitor On Indicator bit in SM33 (SM33.ONSM). Enabling the SM33 will disable the POR33 detector. The SM33 can operate in continuous mode or in sampling mode. In sampling mode, the SM33 is periodically enabled for a short period of time, just enough to make a a measurement, and then disabled for a longer time to reduce power consumption. By default, the SM33 operates in sampling mode during DeepStop and Static mode and in continuous mode for other sleep modes. Sampling mode can also be forced during sleep modes other than DeepStop and Static, and during normal operation, by writing a one to the Force Sampling Mode bit in the SM33 register (SM33.FS). The user can select the sampling frequency by writing to the Sampling Frequency field in SM33 (SM33.SAMPFREQ). The sampling mode uses the 32kHz RC oscillator (RC32K) as clock source. The 32kHz RC oscillator is automatically enabled when the SM33 operates in sampling mode. 14.5.9.3 Interrupt and reset generation If the SM33 is enabled (SM33.CTRL is one or two) and the regulator supply voltage drops below the SM33 threshold, the SM33DET bit in the Power and Clocks Status Register (PCLKSR.SM33DET) is set. This bit is cleared when the supply voltage goes above the threshold. An interrupt request is generated on a zer-to-one transition of PCLKSR.SM33DET if the 259 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Supply Monitor 3.3V Detection bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR.SM33DET) is set. This bit is set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER.SM33DET). If SM33.CTRL is one, a POR will be generated when the voltage drops below the threshold. If SM33.CTRL is two, the device will not be reset. 14.5.9.4 Factory calibration After a reset the SM33.CALIB field is loaded with a factory defined value. This value is chosen so that the nominal threshold value is 1.75V. The flash calibration is redone after any reset, and the Flash Calibration Done bit in SM33 (SM33.FCD) is set before program execution starts in the CPU. Although it is not recommended to override default factory settings, it is still possible to override the default value by writing to SM33.CALIB 14.5.10 Temperature Sensor Rev: 1.0.0.0 The Temperature Sensor is connected to an ADC channel, please refer to the ADC chapter for details. It is enabled by writing one to the Enable bit (EN) in the Temperature Sensor Configuration Register (TSENS). The Temperature Sensor can not be calibrated. Please refer to the Electrical Characteristics chapter for more details. 14.5.11 120MHz RC Oscillator (RC120M) Rev: 1.1.0.0 The 120MHz RC Oscillator can be used as source for the main clock in the device, as described in the Power Manager chapter. The oscillator can also be used as source for the generic clocks, as described in Generic Clock section. The RC120M must be enabled before it is used as a source clock. To enable the clock, the user must write a one to the Enable bit in the 120MHz RC Oscillator Control Register (RC120MCR.EN), and read back the RC120MCR register until the EN bit reads one. The clock is disabled by writing a zero to RC120MCR.EN. The EN bit must be read back as zero before the RC120M is re-enabled. If not, undefined behavior may occur. The oscillator is automatically disabled in certain sleep modes to reduce power consumption, as described in the Power Manager chapter. 14.5.12 Backup Registers (BR) Rev: 1.0.0.1 Four 32-bit backup registers are available to store values when the device is in Shutdown mode. These registers will keep their content even when the VDDCORE supply and the internal regulator supply voltage supplies are removed. The backup registers can be accessed by reading from and writing to the BR0, BR1, BR2, and BR3 registers. After writing to one of the backup registers the user must wait until the Backup Register Interface Ready bit in tne Power and Clocks Status Register (PCLKSR.BRIFARDY) is set before writing to another backup register. Writes to the backup register while PCLKSR.BRIFARDY is zero will be discarded. An interrupt can be generated on a zero-to-one transition on PCLKSR.BRIFARDY if 260 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U the BRIFARDY bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR.BRIFARDY) is set. This bit is set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER.BRIFARDY). After powering up the device the Backup Register Interface Valid bit in PCLKSR (PCLKSR.BRIFAVALID) is cleared, indicating that the content of the backup registers has not been written and contains the reset value. After writing to one of the backup registers the PCLKSR.BRIFAVALID bit is set. During writes to the backup registers (when BRIFARDY is zero) BRIFAVALID will be zero. If a reset occurs when BRIFARDY is zero, BRIFAVALID will be cleared after the reset, indicating that the content of the backup registers is not valid. If BRIFARDY is one when a reset occurs, BRIFAVALID will be one and the content is the same as before the reset. The user must ensure that BRIFAVALID and BRIFARDY are both set before reading the backup register values. 14.5.13 32kHz RC Oscillator (RC32K) Rev: 1.1.0.0 The RC32K can be used as source for the generic clocks, as described in The Generic Clocks section. The 32kHz RC oscillator (RC32K) is forced on after reset, and output on PA20. The clock is available on the pad until the PPCR.FRC32 bit in the Power Manager has been cleared or a different peripheral function has been chosen on PA20 (PA20 will start with peripheral function F by default). Note that the forcing will only enable the clock output. To be able to use the RC32K normally the oscillator must be enabled as described below. The oscillator is enabled by writing a one to the Enable bit in the 32kHz RC Oscillator Configuration Register (RC32KCR.EN) and disabled by writing a zero to RC32KCR.EN. The oscillator is also automatically enabled when the sampling mode is requested for the SM33. In this case, writing a zero to RC32KCR.EN will not disable the RC32K until the sampling mode is no longer requested. 14.5.14 Generic Clock Prescalers Rev: 1.0.0.0 The generic clocks can be sourced by two special prescalers to increase the generic clock frequency precision. These prescalers are named the High Resolution Prescaler (HRP) and the Fractional Prescaler (FP). 14.5.14.1 High resolution prescaler The HRP is a 24-bit counter that can generate a very accurate clock waveform. The clock obtained has 50% duty cycle. 261 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 14-7. High Resolution Prescaler Generation The HRP is enabled by writing a one to the High Resolution Prescaler Enable (HRPEN) bit in the High Resolution Prescaler Control Register (HRPCR). The user can select a clock source for the HRP by writing to the Clock Selection (CKSEL) field of the HRPCR register. The user must configure the High Resolution Prescaler Clock (HRPCLK) frequency by writing to the High Resolution Count (HRCOUNT) field of the High Resolution Counter (HRPCR) register. This results in the output frequency: fHRPCLK = fSRC / (2*(HRCOUNT+1)) The CKSEL field can not be changed dynamically but the HRCOUNT field can be changed onthe-fly. 14.5.14.2 Fractional prescaler The FP generates a clock whose average frequency is more precise than the HRP. However, this clock frequency is subject to jitter around the target clock frequency. This jitter influence can be decreased by dividing this clock with the GCLK divider. Moreover the duty cycle of this clock is not precisely 50%. Figure 14-8. Fractional Prescaler Generation The FP is enabled by writing a one to the FPEN bit in the Fractional Prescaler Control Register (FPCR). The user can select a clock source for the FP by writing to the CKSEL field of the FPCR register. Divider CKSEL HRPCLK HRCOUNT Mask HRPEN Divider CKSEL FPCLK FPDIV Mask FPMUL FPEN 262 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The user must configure the FP frequency by writing to the FPMUL and FPDIV fields of the FPMUL and FPDIV registers. FPMUL and FPDIV must not be equal to zero and FPDIV must be greater or equal to FPMUL. This results in the output frequency: fFPCLK = fSRC * FPMUL/ (2*FPDIV) The CKSEL field can not be changed dynamically but the FPMUL and FPDIV fields can be changed on-the-fly. • Jitter description As described in Figure 14-9, the CLKFP half period lengths are integer multiples of the source clock period but are not always equals. However the difference between the low level half period length and the high level half period length is at the most one source clock period. This induces when FPDIV is not an integer multiple of FPMUL a jitter on the FPCLK. The more the FPCLK frequency is low, the more the jitter incidence is reduced. Figure 14-9. Fractional Prescaler Jitter Examples 14.5.15 Generic Clocks Rev: 1.1.0.0 Timers, communication modules, and other modules connected to external circuitry may require specific clock frequencies to operate correctly. The SCIF defines a number of generic clocks that can provide a wide range of accurate clock frequencies. Each generic clock runs from either clock source listed in the “Generic Clock Sources” table in the SCIF Module Configuration section. The selected source can optionally be divided by any even integer up to 512. Each clock can be independently enabled and disabled, and is also automatically disabled along with peripheral clocks by the Sleep Controller in the Power Manager. SRC clock FPCLK FMUL= 5 FDIV=5 FMUL=3 FDIV=10 FMUL=7 FDIV=9 263 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 14-10. Generic Clock Generation 14.5.15.1 Enabling a generic clock A generic clock is enabled by writing a one to the Clock Enable bit (CEN) in the Generic Clock Control Register (GCCTRL). Each generic clock can individually select a clock source by writing to the Oscillator Select field (OSCSEL). The source clock can optionally be divided by writing a one to the Divide Enable bit (DIVEN) and the Division Factor field (DIV), resulting in the output frequency: where fSRC is the frequency of the selected source clock, and fGCLK is the output frequency of the generic clock. 14.5.15.2 Disabling a generic clock A generic clock is disabled by writing a zero to CEN or entering a sleep mode that disables the PB clocks. In either case, the generic clock will be switched off on the first falling edge after the disabling event, to ensure that no glitches occur. After CEN has been written to zero, the bit will still read as one until the next falling edge occurs, and the clock is actually switched off. When writing a zero to CEN the other bits in GCCTRL should not be changed until CEN reads as zero, to avoid glitches on the generic clock. The generic clocks will be automatically re-enabled when waking from sleep. 14.5.15.3 Changing clock frequency When changing the generic clock frequency by changing OSCSEL or DIV, the clock should be disabled before being re-enabled with the new clock source or division setting. This prevents glitches during the transition. 14.5.15.4 Generic clock allocation The generic clocks are allocated to different functions as shown in the “Generic Clock Allocation” table in the SCIF Module Configuration section. 14.5.16 Interrupts The SCIF has the following interrupt sources: • AE - Access Error: – A protected SCIF register was accessed without first being correctly unlocked.

The interrupt sources will generate an interrupt request if the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Mask Register is set. The interrupt sources are ORed together to form one interrupt request. The SCIF will generate an interrupt request if at least one of the bits in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR) is set. Bits in IMR are set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER), and cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Disable Register (IDR). The interrupt request remains active until the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Status Register (ISR) is cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Clear Register (ICR). Because all the interrupt sources are ORed together, the interrupt request from the SCIF will remain active until all the bits in ISR are cleared. 265 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 14.6 User Interface Table 14-2.

It is not recommended to work with an error higher than 5%. 20.6.1.3 Fractional Baud Rate in Asynchronous Mode The baud rate generator has a limitation: the source frequency is always a multiple of the baud rate. An approach to this problem is to integrate a high resolution fractional N clock generator, outputting fractional multiples of the reference source clock. This fractional part is selected with the Fractional Part field (BRGR.FP), and is activated by giving it a non-zero value. The resolution is one eighth of CD. The resulting baud rate is calculated using the following formula: The modified architecture is presented below: Table 20-3.

Fractional Baud Rate Generator 20.6.1.4 Baud Rate in Synchronous and SPI Mode If the USART is configured to operate in synchronous mode, the selected clock is divided by the BRGR.CD field. This does not apply when CLK is selected. When CLK is selected the external frequency must be at least 4.5 times lower than the system clock, and when either CLK or CLK_USART/DIV are selected, CD must be even to ensure a 50/50 duty cycle. If CLK_USART is selected, the generator ensures this regardless of value. 20.6.2 Receiver and Transmitter Control After a reset, the transceiver is disabled. The receiver/transmitter is enabled by writing a one to either the Receiver Enable, or Transmitter Enable bit in the Control Register (CR.RXEN, or CR.TXEN). They may be enabled together and can be configured both before and after they have been enabled. The user can reset the USART receiver/transmitter at any time by writing a one to either the Reset Receiver (CR.RSTRX), or Reset Transmitter (CR.RSTTX) bit. This software reset clears status bits and resets internal state machines, immediately halting any communication. The user interface configuration registers will retain their values. The user can disable the receiver/transmitter by writing a one to either the Receiver Disable, or Transmitter Disable bit (CR.RXDIS, or CR.TXDIS). If the receiver is disabled during a character reception, the USART will wait for the current character to be received before disabling. If the transmitter is disabled during transmission, the USART will wait until both the current character and the character stored in the Transmitter Holding Register (THR) are transmitted before disabling. If a timeguard has been implemented it will remain functional during the transaction.

One start bit, up to 9 data bits, an optional parity bit, and up to two stop bits are successively shifted out on the TXD pin at each falling edge of the serial clock. The number of data bits is selected by the Character Length field (MR.CHRL) and the MR.MODE9 bit. Nine bits are selected by writing a one to MODE9, overriding any value in CHRL. The parity bit configuration is selected in the MR.PAR field. The Most Significant Bit First bit (MR.MSBF) selects which data bit to send first. The number of stop bits is selected by the MR.NBSTOP field. The 1.5 stop bit configuration is only supported in asynchronous mode. Figure 20-4. Character Transmit The characters are sent by writing to the Character to be Transmitted field (THR.TXCHR). The transmitter reports status with the Transmitter Ready (TXRDY) and Transmitter Empty (TXEMPTY) bits in the Channel Status Register (CSR). TXRDY is set when THR is empty. TXEMPTY is set when both THR and the transmit shift register are empty (transmission complete). Both TXRDY and TXEMPTY are cleared when the transmitter is disabled. Writing a character to THR while TXRDY is zero has no effect and the written character will be lost. Figure 20-5. Transmitter Status 20.6.3.2 Asynchronous Receiver If the USART is configured in an asynchronous operating mode (MR.SYNC = 0), the receiver will oversample the RXD input line by either 8 or 16 times the baud rate clock, as selected by the Oversampling Mode bit (MR.OVER). If the line is zero for half a bit period (four or eight consecutive samples, respectively), a start bit will be assumed, and the following 8th or 16th sample will determine the logical value on the line, in effect resulting in bit values being determined at the middle of the bit period.

The synchronization mechanism will only consider one stop bit, regardless of the used protocol, and when the first stop bit has been sampled, the receiver will automatically begin looking for a new start bit, enabling resynchronization even if there is a protocol miss-match. Figure 20-6 and Figure 20-7 illustrate start bit detection and character reception in asynchronous mode. Figure 20-6. Asynchronous Start Bit Detection Figure 20-7. Asynchronous Character Reception 20.6.3.3 Synchronous Receiver In synchronous mode (SYNC=1), the receiver samples the RXD signal on each rising edge of the Baud Rate Clock. If a low level is detected, it is considered as a start bit. Configuration bits and fields are the same as in asynchronous mode.

Synchronous Mode Character Reception 20.6.3.4 Receiver Operations When a character reception is completed, it is transferred to the Received Character field in the Receive Holding Register (RHR.RXCHR), and the Receiver Ready bit in the Channel Status Register (CSR.RXRDY) is set. If RXRDY is already set, RHR will be overwritten and the Overrun Error bit (CSR.OVRE) is set. Reading RHR will clear RXRDY, and writing a one to the Reset Status bit in the Control Register (CR.RSTSTA) will clear OVRE. Figure 20-9. Receiver Status 20.6.3.5 Parity The USART supports five parity modes selected by MR.PAR. The PAR field also enables the Multidrop mode, see ”Multidrop Mode” on page 443. If even parity is selected, the parity bit will be a zero if there is an even number of ones in the data character, and if there is an odd number it will be a one. For odd parity the reverse applies. If space or mark parity is chosen, the parity bit will always be a zero or one, respectively. See Table 20-4.

Writing a one to CR.RSTSTA will clear PARE. See Figure 20-10 Figure 20-10. Parity Error 20.6.3.6 Multidrop Mode If PAR is either 0x6 or 0x7, the USART runs in Multidrop mode. This mode differentiates data and address characters. Data has the parity bit zero and addresses have a one. By writing a one to the Send Address bit (CR.SENDA) the user will cause the next character written to THR to be transmitted as an address. Receiving a character with a one as parity bit will set PARE. 20.6.3.7 Transmitter Timeguard The timeguard feature enables the USART to interface slow devices by inserting an idle state on the TXD line in between two characters. This idle state corresponds to a long stop bit, whose duration is selected by the Timeguard Value field in the Transmitter Timeguard Register (TTGR.TG). The transmitter will hold the TXD line high for TG bit periods, in addition to the number of stop bits. As illustrated in Figure 20-11, the behavior of TXRDY and TXEMPTY is modified when TG has a non-zero value. If a pending character has been written to THR, the TXRDY bit will not be set until this characters start bit has been sent. TXEMPTY will remain low until the timeguard transmission has completed.

Maximum Baud Rate Dependent Timeguard Durations 20.6.3.8 Receiver Time-out The Time-out Value field in the Receiver Time-out Register (RTOR.TO) enables handling of variable-length frames by detection of selectable idle durations on the RXD line. The value written to TO is loaded to a decremental counter, and unless it is zero, a time-out will occur when the amount of inactive bit periods match the initial counter value. If a time-out has not occurred, the counter will reload and restart every time a new character arrives. A time-out sets the TIMEOUT bit in CSR. Clearing TIMEOUT can be done in two ways: • Writing a one to the Start Time-out bit (CR.STTTO). This also aborts count down until the next character has been received. • Writing a one to the Reload and Start Time-out bit (CR.RETTO). This also reloads the counter and restarts count down immediately. Figure 20-12. Receiver Time-out Block Diagram Table 20-6.

A framing error has occurred if a stop bit reads as zero. This can occur if the transmitter and receiver are not synchronized. A framing error is reported by CSR.FRAME as soon as the error is detected, at the middle of the stop bit. Figure 20-13. Framing Error Status 20.6.3.10 Transmit Break When TXRDY is set, the user can request the transmitter to generate a break condition on the TXD line by writing a one to The Start Break bit (CR.STTBRK). The break is treated as a normal 0x00 character transmission, clearing TXRDY and TXEMPTY, but with zeroes for preambles, start, parity, stop, and time guard bits. Writing a one to the Stop Break bit (CR.STBRK) will stop the generation of new break characters, and send ones for TG duration or at least 12 bit periods, ensuring that the receiver detects end of break, before resuming normal operation. Figure 20-14 illustrates STTBRK and STPBRK effect on the TXD line. Writing to STTBRK and STPBRK simultaneously can lead to unpredictable results. Writes to THR before a pending break has started will be ignored. 9 600 104 6 827 14400 69 4 551 19200 52 3 413 28800 35 2 276 33400 30 1 962 56000 18 1 170 57600 17 1 138 200000 5 328 Baud Rate (bit/sec) Bit Time (µs) Time-out (ms) D0 D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 RXD Start Bit Parity Bit Stop Bit Baud Rate Clock Write CR FRAME RXRDY RSTSTA = 1 446 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 20-14. Break Transmission 20.6.3.11 Receive Break A break condition is assumed when incoming data, parity, and stop bits are zero. This corresponds to a framing error, but FRAME will remain zero while the Break Received/End Of Break bit (CSR.RXBRK) is set. Writing a one to CR.RSTSTA will clear RXBRK. An end of break will also set RXBRK, and is assumed when TX is high for at least 2/16 of a bit period in asynchronous mode, or when a high level is sampled in synchronous mode. 20.6.3.12 Hardware Handshaking The USART features an out-of-band hardware handshaking flow control mechanism, implementable by connecting the RTS and CTS pins with the remote device, as shown in Figure 20- 15. Figure 20-15. Connection with a Remote Device for Hardware Handshaking Writing 0x2 to the MR.MODE field configures the USART to operate in this mode. The receiver will drive its RTS pin high when disabled or when the Reception Buffer Full bit (CSR.RXBUFF) is set by the Buffer Full signal from the Peripheral DMA controller. If the receivers RTS pin is high, the transmitters CTS pin will also be high and only the active character transactions will be completed. Allocating a new buffer to the DMA controller by clearing RXBUFF, will drive the RTS pin low, allowing the transmitter to resume transmission. Detected level changes on the CTS pin can trigger interrupts, and are reported by the CTS Input Change bit in the Channel Status Register (CSR.CTSIC). Figure 20-16 illustrates receiver functionality, and Figure 20-17 illustrates transmitter functionality.

Receiver Behavior when Operating with Hardware Handshaking Figure 20-17. Transmitter Behavior when Operating with Hardware Handshaking Figure 20-18. 20.6.4 SPI Mode The USART features a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) link compliant mode, supporting synchronous, full-duplex communication, in both master and slave mode. Writing 0xE (master) or 0xF (slave) to MR.MODE will enable this mode. A SPI in master mode controls the data flow to and from the other SPI devices, who are in slave mode. It is possible to let devices take turns being masters (aka multi-master protocol), and one master may shift data simultaneously into several slaves, but only one slave may respond at a time. A slave is selected when its slave select (NSS) signal has been raised by the master. The USART can only generate one NSS signal, and it is possible to use standard I/O lines to address more than one slave. 20.6.4.1 Modes of Operation The SPI system consists of two data lines and two control lines: • Master Out Slave In (MOSI): This line supplies the data shifted from master to slave. In master mode this is connected to TXD, and in slave mode to RXD. • Master In Slave Out (MISO): This line supplies the data shifted from slave to master. In master mode this is connected to RXD, and in slave mode to TXD. • Serial Clock (CLK): This is controlled by the master. One period per bit transmission. In both modes this is connected to CLK. • Slave Select (NSS): This control line allows the master to select or deselect a slave. In master mode this is connected to RTS, and in slave mode to CTS. Changing SPI mode after initial configuration has to be followed by a transceiver software reset in order to avoid unpredictable behavior. 20.6.4.2 Baud Rate The baud rate generator operates as described in ”Baud Rate in Synchronous and SPI Mode” on page 439, with the following requirements: In SPI Master Mode: RTS RXBUFF Write CR RXEN = 1 RXD RXDIS = 1 CTS TXD 448 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • The Clock Selection field (MR.USCLKS) must not equal 0x3 (external clock, CLK). • The Clock Output Select bit (MR.CLKO) must be one. • The BRGR.CD field must be at least 0x4. • If USCLKS is one (internal divided clock, CLK_USART/DIV), the value in CD has to be even, ensuring a 50:50 duty cycle. CD can be odd if USCLKS is zero (internal clock, CLK_USART). In SPI Slave Mode: • CLK frequency must be at least four times lower than the system clock. 20.6.4.3 Data Transfer • Up to nine data bits are successively shifted out on the TXD pin at each edge. There are no start, parity, or stop bits, and MSB is always sent first. The SPI Clock Polarity (MR.CPOL), and SPI Clock Phase (MR.CPHA) bits configure CLK by selecting the edges upon which bits are shifted and sampled, resulting in four non-interoperable protocol modes see Table 20-7. A master/slave pair must use the same configuration, and the master must be reconfigured if it is to communicate with slaves using different configurations. See Figures 20-19 and 20-20. Figure 20-19.

SPI Transfer Format (CPHA=0, 8 bits per transfer) 20.6.4.4 Receiver and Transmitter Control See ”Transmitter Operations” on page 440, and ”Receiver Operations” on page 442. 20.6.4.5 Character Transmission and Reception In SPI master mode, the slave select line (NSS) is asserted low one bit period before the start of transmission, and released high one bit period after every character transmission. A delay for at least three bit periods is always inserted in between characters. In order to address slave devices supporting the Chip Select Active After Transfer (CSAAT) mode, NSS can be forced low by writing a one to the Force SPI Chip Select bit (CR.RTSEN/FCS). Releasing NSS when FCS is one, is only possible by writing a one to the Release SPI Chip Select bit (CR.RTSDIS/RCS). In SPI slave mode, a low level on NSS for at least one bit period will allow the slave to initiate a transmission or reception. The Underrun Error bit (CSR.UNRE) is set if a character must be sent while THR is empty, and TXD will be high during character transmission, as if 0xFF was being sent. If a new character is written to THR it will be sent correctly during the next transmission slot. Writing a one to CR.RSTSTA will clear UNRE. To ensure correct behavior of the receiver in SPI slave mode, the master device sending the frame must ensure a minimum delay of one bit period in between each character transmission. 20.6.4.6 Receiver Time-out Receiver Time-out’s are not possible in SPI mode as the baud rate clock is only active during data transfers. 20.6.5 LIN Mode The USART features a LIN (Local Interconnect Network) 1.3 and 2.0 compliant mode, embedding full error checking and reporting, automatic frame processing with up to 256 data bytes, CLK cycle (for reference) CLK (CPOL= 0) CLK (CPOL= 1) MOSI SPI Master -> TXD SPI Slave -> RXD MISO SPI Master -> RXD SPI Slave -> TXD NSS SPI Master -> RTS SPI Slave -> CTS MSB 6 5 MSB 6 5 4 4 3 3 2 2 1 1 LSB LSB 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 450 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U customizable response data lengths, and requires minimal CPU resources. Writing 0xA (master) or 0xB (slave) to MR.MODE enables this mode. 20.6.5.1 Modes of operation Changing LIN mode after initial configuration has to be followed by a transceiver software reset in order to avoid unpredictable behavior. 20.6.5.2 Receiver and Transmitter Control See Section “20.6.2” on page 439. 20.6.5.3 Baud Rate Configuration The LIN nodes baud rate is configured in the Baud Rate Generator Register (BRGR), See Section “20.6.1.1” on page 437. 20.6.5.4 Character Transmission and Reception See ”Transmitter Operations” on page 440, and ”Receiver Operations” on page 442. 20.6.5.5 Header Transmission (Master Node Configuration) All LIN frames start with a header sent by the master. As soon as the identifier has been written to the Identifier Character field in the LIN Identifier Register (LINIR.IDCHR), TXRDY is cleared and the header is sent. The header consists of a Break, Sync, and Identifier field. TXRDY is set when the identifier has been transferred into the transmitters shift register. The Break field consists of 13 dominant bits, the break, and one recessive bit, the break delimiter. The Sync field is the character 0x55. The Identifier field contains the Identifier as written to IDCHR. The identifier parity bits can be generated automatically (see Section 20.6.5.8). Figure 20-21. Header Transmission 20.6.5.6 Header Reception (Slave Node Configuration) The USART stays idle until it detects a break field, consisting of at least 11 consecutive dominant bits (zeroes) on the bus. A received break will set the Lin Break bit (CSR.LINBK). The Sync field is used to synchronize the baud rate (see Section 20.6.5.7). IDCHR is updated and the LIN Identifier bit (CSR.LINID) is set when the Identifier has been received. The Identifier parity bits can be automatically checked (see Section 20.6.5.8). Writing a one to RSTSTA will clear LINBK and LINID.

Header Reception 20.6.5.7 Slave Node Synchronization Synchronization is only done by the slave. If the Sync field is not 0x55, an Inconsistent Sync Field error (CSR.LINISFE) is generated. The time between falling edges is measured by a 19-bit counter, driven by the sampling clock (see Section 20.6.1). Figure 20-23. Sync Field The counter starts when the Sync field start bit is detected, and continues for eight bit periods. The 16 most significant bits (counter value divided by 8) becomes the new clock divider (BRGR.CD), and the three least significant bits (the remainder) becomes the new fractional part (BRGR.FP). Figure 20-24.

Minimum nominal clock frequency with a fractional part: Examples: • Baud rate = 20 kbit/s, OVER=0 (Oversampling 16x) => FNom(min) = 2.64 MHz • Baud rate = 20 kbit/s, OVER=1 (Oversampling 8x) => FNom(min) = 1.47 MHz • Baud rate = 1 kbit/s, OVER=0 (Oversampling 16x) => FNom(min) = 132 kHz • Baud rate = 1 kbit/s, OVER=1 (Oversampling 8x) => FNom(min) = 74 kHz If the fractional part is not used, the synchronization accuracy is much lower. The 16 most significant bits, added with the first least significant bit, becomes the new clock divider (CD). The equation of the baud rate deviation is the same as above, but the constants are: Minimum nominal clock frequency without a fractional part: Examples: • Baud rate = 20 kbit/s, OVER=0 (Oversampling 16x) => FNom(min) = 19.12 MHz • Baud rate = 20 kbit/s, OVER=1 (Oversampling 8x) => FNom(min) = 9.71 MHz • Baud rate = 1 kbit/s, OVER=0 (Oversampling 16x) => FNom(min) = 956 kHz • Baud rate = 1 kbit/s, OVER=1 (Oversampling 8x) => FNom(min) = 485 kHz 20.6.5.8 Identifier Parity An identifier field consists of two sub-fields; the identifier and its parity. Bits 0 to 5 are assigned to the identifier, while bits 6 and 7 are assigned to parity. Automatic parity management is disabled by writing a one to the Parity Disable bit in the LIN Mode register (LINMR.PARDIS).

During header reception, the parity bits are checked and can generate a LIN Identifier Parity Error (see Section 20.6.6). Bits six and seven in IDCHR read as zero when receiving. • PARDIS=1: During header transmission, all the bits in IDCHR are sent on the bus. During header reception, all the bits in IDCHR are updated with the received Identifier. 20.6.5.9 Node Action After an identifier transaction, a LIN response mode has to be selected. This is done in the Node Action field (LINMR.NACT). Below are some response modes exemplified in a small LIN cluster: • Response, from master to slave1: Master: NACT=PUBLISH Slave1: NACT=SUBSCRIBE Slave2: NACT=IGNORE • Response, from slave1 to master: Master: NACT=SUBSCRIBE Slave1: NACT=PUBLISH Slave2: NACT=IGNORE • Response, from slave1 to slave2: Master: NACT=IGNORE Slave1: NACT=PUBLISH Slave2: NACT=SUBSCRIBE 20.6.5.10 LIN Response Data Length The response data length is the number of data fields (bytes), excluding the checksum. Figure 20-25. Response Data Length The response data length can be configured, either by the user, or automatically by bits 4 and 5 in the Identifier (IDCHR), in accordance to LIN 1.1. The user selects mode by writing to the Data Length Mode bit (LINMR.DML): • DLM=0: the response data length is configured by the user by writing to the 8-bit Data Length Control field (LINMR.DLC). The response data length equals DLC + 1 bytes. User configuration: 1 - 256 data fields (DLC+1) Identifier configuration: 2/4/8 data fields Sync Break Sync Field Identifier Field Checksum Field Data Field Data Field Data Field Data Field 454 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • DLM=1: the response data length is defined by the Identifier bits according to the table below. 20.6.5.11 Checksum The last frame field is the checksum. It is configured by the Checksum Type (LINMR.CHKTYP), and the Checksum Disable (LINMR.CHKDIS) bits. TXRDY will not be set after the last THR data write if enabled. Writing a one to CHKDIS will disable the automatic checksum generation/checking, and the user may send/check this last byte manually, disguised as a normal data. The checksum is an inverted 8-bit sum with carry, either: • over all data bytes, called a classic checksum. This is used for LIN 1.3 compliant slaves, and automatically managed when CHKDIS=0, and CHKTYP=1. • over all data bytes and the protected identifier, called an enhanced checksum. This is used for LIN 2.0 compliant slaves, and automatically managed when CHKDIS=0, and CHKTYP=0. 20.6.5.12 Frame Slot Mode A LIN master can be configured to use frame slots with a pre-defined minimum length. Writing a one to the Frame Slot Mode Disable bit (LINMR.FSDIS) disables this mode. This mode will not allow TXRDY to be set after a frame transfer until the entire frame slot duration has elapsed, in effect preventing the master from sending a new header. The LIN Transfer Complete bit (CSR.LINTC) will still be set after the checksum has been sent. Writing a one to CR.RSTST clears LINTC. Figure 20-26. Frame Slot Mode with Automatic Checksum The minimum frame slot size is determined by TFrame_Maximum, and calculated below (all values in bit periods): • THeader_Nominal = 34 Table 20-8.

This error can only be generated if the checksum feature is enabled (CHKDIS=0). 20.6.6.3 Identifier Parity Error (CSR.LINIPE) This error is generated if the identifier parity is wrong. This error can only be generated if parity is enabled (PARDIS=0). 20.6.6.4 Inconsistent Sync Field Error (CSR.LINISFE) This error is generated in slave mode if the Sync Field character received is not 0x55. Synchronization procedure is aborted. 20.6.6.5 Bit Error (CSR.LINBE) This error is generated if the value transmitted by the USART on Tx differs from the value sampled on Rx. If a bit error is detected, the transmission is aborted at the next byte border. 20.6.7 LIN Frame Handling 20.6.7.1 Master Node Configuration • Write a one to CR.TXEN and CR.RXEN to enable both transmitter and receiver • Select LIN mode and master node by writing to MR.MODE • Configure the baud rate by writing to CD and FP in BRGR • Configure the frame transfer by writing to NACT, PARDIS, CHKDIS, CHKTYPE, DLCM, FSDIS, and DLC in LINMR • Check that CSR.TXRDY is one • Send the header by writing to LINIR.IDCHR The following procedure depends on the NACT setting: 456 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • Case 1: NACT=PUBLISH, the USART sends a response – Wait until TXRDY is a one – Send a byte by writing to THR.TXCHR – Repeat the two previous steps until there is no more data to send – Wait until CSR.LINTC is a one – Check for LIN errors • Case 2: NACT=SUBSCRIBE, the USART receives a response – Wait until RXRDY is a one – Read RHR.RXCHR – Repeat the two previous steps until there is no more data to read – Wait until LINTC is a one – Check for LIN errors • Case 3: NACT=IGNORE, the USART is not concerned by a response – Wait until LINTC is a one – Check for LIN errors Figure 20-27.

The different NACT settings result in the same procedure as for the master node, see page 455.

Slave Node Configuration, NACT=IGNORE 20.6.8 LIN Frame Handling With The Peripheral DMA Controller The USART can be used together with the Peripheral DMA Controller in order to transfer data without processor intervention. The DMA Controller uses the TXRDY and RXRDY bits, to trigger one byte writes or reads. It always writes to THR, and it always reads RHR. Break Synch Protected Identifier Data 1 Data N Checksum TXRDY Write THR Read LINID Data 1 Data 3 Data N-1 Data N RXRDY LINIDRX Data 2 LINTC TXRDY Read RHR Read LINID RXRDY LINIDRX LINTC Break Synch Protected Identifier Data 1 Data N Checksum Data 1 Data N-1 Data N-2 Data N-1 Data N TXRDY Read RHR Read LINID RXRDY LINIDRX LINTC Break Synch Protected Identifier Data 1 Data N Checksum Data N-1 459 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 20.6.8.1 Master Node Configuration The Peripheral DMA Controller Mode bit (LINMR.PDCM) allows the user to select configuration: • PDCM=0: LIN configuration must be written to LINMR, it is not stored in the write buffer. • PDCM=1: LIN configuration is written by the DMA Controller to THR, and is stored in the write buffer. Since data transfer size is a byte, the transfer is split into two accesses. The first writes the NACT, PARDIS, CHKDIS, CHKTYP, DLM and FSDIS bits, while the second writes the DLC field. If NACT=PUBLISH, the write buffer will also contain the Identifier. When NACT=SUBSCRIBE, the read buffer contains the data. Figure 20-33.

The user reads the Identifier from LINIR, and selects LIN mode by writing to LINMR. When NACT=PUBLISH the data is in the write buffer, while the read buffer contains the data when NACT=SUBSCRIBE. IMPORTANT: if in slave mode, NACT is already configured correctly as PUBLISH, the LINMR register must still be written with this value in order to set TXRDY, and to request the corresponding Peripheral DMA Controller write transfer. Figure 20-35. Slave Node with Peripheral DMA Controller 20.6.9 Wake-up Request Any node in a sleeping LIN cluster may request a wake-up. By writing to the Wakeup Signal Type bit (LINMR.WKUPTYP), the user can choose to send either a LIN 1.3 (WKUPTYP=1), or a LIN 2.0 (WKUPTYP=0) compliant wakeup request. Writing a one to the Send LIN Wakeup Signal bit (CR.LINWKUP), transmits a wakeup, and when completed sets LINTC. According to LIN 1.3, the wakeup request should be generated with the character 0x80 in order to impose eight successive dominant bits. According to LIN 2.0, the wakeup request is issued by forcing the bus into the dominant state for 250µs to 5ms. Sending the character 0xF0 does this, regardless of baud rate. • Baud rate max = 20 kbit/s -> one bit period = 50µs -> five bit periods = 250µs • Baud rate min = 1 kbit/s -> one bit period = 1ms -> five bit periods = 5ms 20.6.10 Bus Idle Time-out LIN bus inactivity should eventually cause slaves to time-out and enter sleep mode. LIN 1.3 specifies this to 25000 bit periods, whilst LIN 2.0 specifies 4seconds.

Figure 20-36. Normal Mode Configuration 20.6.11.2 Automatic Echo Mode Automatic echo mode allows bit-by-bit retransmission. When a bit is received on the RXD pin, it is also sent to the TXD pin, as shown in Figure 20-37. Transmitter configuration has no effect. Figure 20-37. Automatic Echo Mode Configuration 20.6.11.3 Local Loopback Mode Local loopback mode connects the output of the transmitter directly to the input of the receiver, as shown in Figure 20-38. The TXD and RXD pins are not used. The RXD pin has no effect on the receiver and the TXD pin is continuously driven high, as in idle state. Figure 20-38. Local Loopback Mode Configuration 20.6.11.4 Remote Loopback Mode Remote loopback mode connects the RXD pin to the TXD pin, as shown in Figure 20-39.

Remote Loopback Mode Configuration 20.6.12 Write Protection Registers To prevent single software errors from corrupting USART behavior, certain address spaces can be write-protected by writing the correct Write Protect KEY and a one to the Write Protect Enable bit in the Write Protect Mode Register (WPMR.WPKEY, and WPMR.WPEN). Disabling the write protection is done by writing the correct key, and a zero to WPEN. Write attempts to a write protected register are detected and the Write Protect Violation Status bit in the Write Protect Status Register (WPSR.WPVS) is set, while the Write Protect Violation Source field (WPSR.WPVSRC) indicates the targeted register. Writing the correct key to the Write Protect KEY bit (WPMR.WPKEY) clears WPVSRC and WPVS. The protected registers are: • ”Mode Register” on page 466 • ”Baud Rate Generator Register” on page 476 • ”Receiver Time-out Register” on page 477 • ”Transmitter Timeguard Register” on page 478 Receiver Transmitter RXD TXD 1 463 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 20.7 User Interface Note: 1.

Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Rev: 2.1.1.3 21.1 Features • Compatible with an embedded 32-bit microcontroller • Supports communication with serial external devices – Four chip selects with external decoder support allow communication with up to 15 peripherals – Serial memories, such as DataFlash and 3-wire EEPROMs – Serial peripherals, such as ADCs, DACs, LCD controllers, CAN controllers and Sensors – External co-processors • Master or Slave Serial Peripheral Bus Interface – 4 - to 16-bit programmable data length per chip select – Programmable phase and polarity per chip select – Programmable transfer delays between consecutive transfers and between clock and data per chip select – Programmable delay between consecutive transfers – Selectable mode fault detection • Connection to Peripheral DMA Controller channel capabilities optimizes data transfers – One channel for the receiver, one channel for the transmitter – Next buffer support – Four character FIFO in reception 21.2 Overview The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) circuit is a synchronous serial data link that provides communication with external devices in Master or Slave mode. It also enables communication between processors if an external processor is connected to the system. The Serial Peripheral Interface is essentially a shift register that serially transmits data bits to other SPIs. During a data transfer, one SPI system acts as the “master”' which controls the data flow, while the other devices act as “slaves'' which have data shifted into and out by the master. Different CPUs can take turn being masters (Multiple Master Protocol opposite to Single Master Protocol where one CPU is always the master while all of the others are always slaves) and one master may simultaneously shift data into multiple slaves. However, only one slave may drive its output to write data back to the master at any given time. A slave device is selected when the master asserts its NSS signal. If multiple slave devices exist, the master generates a separate slave select signal for each slave (NPCS). The SPI system consists of two data lines and two control lines: • Master Out Slave In (MOSI): this data line supplies the output data from the master shifted into the input(s) of the slave(s). • Master In Slave Out (MISO): this data line supplies the output data from a slave to the input of the master. There may be no more than one slave transmitting data during any particular transfer. • Serial Clock (SPCK): this control line is driven by the master and regulates the flow of the data bits. The master may transmit data at a variety of baud rates; the SPCK line cycles once for each bit that is transmitted. • Slave Select (NSS): this control line allows slaves to be turned on and off by hardware. 487 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 21.3 Block Diagram Figure 21-1.

The user must first configure the I/O Controller to assign the SPI pins to their peripheral functions. 21.6.2 Clocks The clock for the SPI bus interface (CLK_SPI) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the SPI before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the SPI in an undefined state. 21.6.3 Interrupts The SPI interrupt request line is connected to the interrupt controller. Using the SPI interrupt requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 21.7 Functional Description 21.7.1 Modes of Operation The SPI operates in master mode or in slave mode. Operation in master mode is configured by writing a one to the Master/Slave Mode bit in the Mode Register (MR.MSTR). The pins NPCS0 to NPCS3 are all configured as outputs, the SPCK pin is driven, the MISO line is wired on the receiver input and the MOSI line driven as an output by the transmitter. If the MR.MSTR bit is written to zero, the SPI operates in slave mode. The MISO line is driven by the transmitter output, the MOSI line is wired on the receiver input, the SPCK pin is driven by the transmitter to synchronize the receiver. The NPCS0 pin becomes an input, and is used as a Slave Select signal (NSS). The pins NPCS1 to NPCS3 are not driven and can be used for other purposes. The data transfers are identically programmable for both modes of operations. The baud rate generator is activated only in master mode. Table 21-1. I/O Lines Description Pin Name Pin Description Type Master Slave MISO Master In Slave Out Input Output MOSI Master Out Slave In Output Input SPCK Serial Clock Output Input NPCS1-NPCS3 Peripheral Chip Selects Output Unused NPCS0/NSS Peripheral Chip Select/Slave Select Output Input 489 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 21.7.2 Data Transfer Four combinations of polarity and phase are available for data transfers. The clock polarity is configured with the Clock Polarity bit in the Chip Select Registers (CSRn.CPOL). The clock phase is configured with the Clock Phase bit in the CSRn registers (CSRn.NCPHA). These two bits determine the edges of the clock signal on which data is driven and sampled. Each of the two bits has two possible states, resulting in four possible combinations that are incompatible with one another. Thus, a master/slave pair must use the same parameter pair values to communicate. If multiple slaves are used and fixed in different configurations, the master must reconfigure itself each time it needs to communicate with a different slave. Table 21-2 on page 489 shows the four modes and corresponding parameter settings. Figure 21-3 on page 489 and Figure 21-4 on page 490 show examples of data transfers. Figure 21-3.

It fully controls the data transfers to and from the slave(s) connected to the SPI bus. The SPI drives the chip select line to the slave and the serial clock signal (SPCK). The SPI features two holding registers, the Transmit Data Register (TDR) and the Receive Data Register (RDR), and a single Shift Register. The holding registers maintain the data flow at a constant rate. After enabling the SPI, a data transfer begins when the processor writes to the TDR register. The written data is immediately transferred in the Shift Register and transfer on the SPI bus starts. While the data in the Shift Register is shifted on the MOSI line, the MISO line is sampled and shifted in the Shift Register. Transmission cannot occur without reception. Before writing to the TDR, the Peripheral Chip Select field in TDR (TDR.PCS) must be written in order to select a slave. If new data is written to TDR during the transfer, it stays in it until the current transfer is completed. Then, the received data is transferred from the Shift Register to RDR, the data in TDR is loaded in the Shift Register and a new transfer starts. The transfer of a data written in TDR in the Shift Register is indicated by the Transmit Data Register Empty bit in the Status Register (SR.TDRE). When new data is written in TDR, this bit is cleared. The SR.TDRE bit is used to trigger the Transmit Peripheral DMA Controller channel. The end of transfer is indicated by the Transmission Registers Empty bit in the SR register (SR.TXEMPTY). If a transfer delay (CSRn.DLYBCT) is greater than zero for the last transfer, SR.TXEMPTY is set after the completion of said delay. The CLK_SPI can be switched off at this time. During reception, received data are transferred from the Shift Register to the reception FIFO. The FIFO can contain up to 4 characters (both Receive Data and Peripheral Chip Select fields). While a character of the FIFO is unread, the Receive Data Register Full bit in SR remains high (SR.RDRF). Characters are read through the RDR register. If the four characters stored in the FIFO are not read and if a new character is stored, this sets the Overrun Error Status bit in the SR register (SR.OVRES). The procedure to follow in such a case is described in Section 21.7.3.8.

This allows a maximum operating baud rate at up to CLK_SPI and a minimum operating baud rate of CLK_SPI divided by 255. Writing the Serial Clock Baud Rate field in the CSRn registers (CSRn.SCBR) to zero is forbidden. Triggering a transfer while CSRn.SCBR is zero can lead to unpredictable results. At reset, CSRn.SCBR is zero and the user has to configure it at a valid value before performing the first transfer. The divisor can be defined independently for each chip select, as it has to be configured in the CSRn.SCBR field. This allows the SPI to automatically adapt the baud rate for each interfaced peripheral without reprogramming. 21.7.3.4 Transfer delays Figure 21-7 on page 493 shows a chip select transfer change and consecutive transfers on the same chip select. Three delays can be configured to modify the transfer waveforms: • The delay between chip selects, programmable only once for all the chip selects by writing to the Delay Between Chip Selects field in the MR register (MR.DLYBCS). Allows insertion of a delay between release of one chip select and before assertion of a new one. • The delay before SPCK, independently programmable for each chip select by writing the Delay Before SPCK field in the CSRn registers (CSRn.DLYBS). Allows the start of SPCK to be delayed after the chip select has been asserted. • The delay between consecutive transfers, independently programmable for each chip select by writing the Delay Between Consecutive Transfers field in the CSRn registers (CSRn.DLYBCT). Allows insertion of a delay between two transfers occurring on the same chip select These delays allow the SPI to be adapted to the interfaced peripherals and their speed and bus release time. Figure 21-7. Programmable Delays DLYBCS DLYBS DLYBCT DLYBCT Chip Select 1 Chip Select 2 SPCK 494 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 21.7.3.5 Peripheral selection The serial peripherals are selected through the assertion of the NPCS0 to NPCS3 signals. By default, all the NPCS signals are high before and after each transfer. The peripheral selection can be performed in two different ways: • Fixed Peripheral Select: SPI exchanges data with only one peripheral • Variable Peripheral Select: Data can be exchanged with more than one peripheral Fixed Peripheral Select is activated by writing a zero to the Peripheral Select bit in MR (MR.PS). In this case, the current peripheral is defined by the MR.PCS field and the TDR.PCS field has no effect. Variable Peripheral Select is activated by writing a one to the MR.PS bit . The TDR.PCS field is used to select the current peripheral. This means that the peripheral selection can be defined for each new data. The Fixed Peripheral Selection allows buffer transfers with a single peripheral. Using the Peripheral DMA Controller is an optimal means, as the size of the data transfer between the memory and the SPI is either 4 bits or 16 bits. However, changing the peripheral selection requires the Mode Register to be reprogrammed. The Variable Peripheral Selection allows buffer transfers with multiple peripherals without reprogramming the MR register. Data written to TDR is 32-bits wide and defines the real data to be transmitted and the peripheral it is destined to. Using the Peripheral DMA Controller in this mode requires 32-bit wide buffers, with the data in the LSBs and the PCS and LASTXFER fields in the MSBs, however the SPI still controls the number of bits (8 to16) to be transferred through MISO and MOSI lines with the CSRn registers. This is not the optimal means in term of memory size for the buffers, but it provides a very effective means to exchange data with several peripherals without any intervention of the processor. 21.7.3.6 Peripheral chip select decoding The user can configure the SPI to operate with up to 15 peripherals by decoding the four Chip Select lines, NPCS0 to NPCS3 with an external logic. This can be enabled by writing a one to the Chip Select Decode bit in the MR register (MR.PCSDEC). When operating without decoding, the SPI makes sure that in any case only one chip select line is activated, i.e. driven low at a time. If two bits are defined low in a PCS field, only the lowest numbered chip select is driven low. When operating with decoding, the SPI directly outputs the value defined by the PCS field of either the MR register or the TDR register (depending on PS). As the SPI sets a default value of 0xF on the chip select lines (i.e. all chip select lines at one) when not processing any transfer, only 15 peripherals can be decoded. The SPI has only four Chip Select Registers, not 15. As a result, when decoding is activated, each chip select defines the characteristics of up to four peripherals. As an example, the CRS0 register defines the characteristics of the externally decoded peripherals 0 to 3, corresponding to the PCS values 0x0 to 0x3. Thus, the user has to make sure to connect compatible peripherals on the decoded chip select lines 0 to 3, 4 to 7, 8 to 11 and 12 to 14. 21.7.3.7 Peripheral deselection When operating normally, as soon as the transfer of the last data written in TDR is completed, the NPCS lines all rise. This might lead to runtime error if the processor is too long in responding 495 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U to an interrupt, and thus might lead to difficulties for interfacing with some serial peripherals requiring the chip select line to remain active during a full set of transfers. To facilitate interfacing with such devices, the CSRn registers can be configured with the Chip Select Active After Transfer bit written to one (CSRn.CSAAT) . This allows the chip select lines to remain in their current state (low = active) until transfer to another peripheral is required. When the CSRn.CSAAT bit is written to qero, the NPCS does not rise in all cases between two transfers on the same peripheral. During a transfer on a Chip Select, the SR.TDRE bit rises as soon as the content of the TDR is transferred into the internal shifter. When this bit is detected the TDR can be reloaded. If this reload occurs before the end of the current transfer and if the next transfer is performed on the same chip select as the current transfer, the Chip Select is not de-asserted between the two transfers. This might lead to difficulties for interfacing with some serial peripherals requiring the chip select to be de-asserted after each transfer. To facilitate interfacing with such devices, the CSRn registers can be configured with the Chip Select Not Active After Transfer bit (CSRn.CSNAAT) written to one. This allows to de-assert systematically the chip select lines during a time DLYBCS. (The value of the CSRn.CSNAAT bit is taken into account only if the CSRn.CSAAT bit is written to zero for the same Chip Select). Figure 21-8 on page 496 shows different peripheral deselection cases and the effect of the CSRn.CSAAT and CSRn.CSNAAT bits. 21.7.3.8 FIFO management A FIFO has been implemented in Reception FIFO (both in master and in slave mode), in order to be able to store up to 4 characters without causing an overrun error. If an attempt is made to store a fifth character, an overrun error rises. If such an event occurs, the FIFO must be flushed. There are two ways to Flush the FIFO: • By performing four read accesses of the RDR (the data read must be ignored) • By writing a one to the Flush Fifo Command bit in the CR register (CR.FLUSHFIFO). After that, the SPI is able to receive new data. 496 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 21-8. Peripheral Deselection Figure 21-8 on page 496 shows different peripheral deselection cases and the effect of the CSRn.CSAAT and CSRn.CSNAAT bits. 21.7.3.9 Mode fault detection The SPI is capable of detecting a mode fault when it is configured in master mode and NPCS0, MOSI, MISO, and SPCK are configured as open drain through the I/O Controller with either internal or external pullup resistors. If the I/O Controller does not have open-drain capability, mode fault detection must be disabled by writing a one to the Mode Fault Detection bit in the MR A NPCS[0..3] Write TDR TDRE NPCS[0..3] Write TDR TDRE NPCS[0..3] Write TDR TDRE DLYBCS PCS = A DLYBCS DLYBCT A PCS = B B DLYBCS PCS = A DLYBCS DLYBCT A PCS = B B DLYBCS DLYBCT PCS=A A DLYBCS DLYBCT A PCS = A A A DLYBCT A A CSAAT = 0 and CSNAAT = 0 DLYBCT A A CSAAT = 1 and CSNAAT= 0 / 1 A DLYBCS PCS = A DLYBCT A A CSAAT = 0 and CSNAAT = 1 NPCS[0..3] Write TDR TDRE PCS = A DLYBCT A A CSAAT = 0 and CSNAAT = 0 497 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U register (MR.MODFDIS). In systems with open-drain I/O lines, a mode fault is detected when a low level is driven by an external master on the NPCS0/NSS signal. When a mode fault is detected, the Mode Fault Error bit in the SR (SR.MODF) is set until the SR is read and the SPI is automatically disabled until re-enabled by writing a one to the SPI Enable bit in the CR register (CR.SPIEN). By default, the mode fault detection circuitry is enabled. The user can disable mode fault detection by writing a one to the Mode Fault Detection bit in the MR register (MR.MODFDIS). 21.7.4 SPI Slave Mode When operating in slave mode, the SPI processes data bits on the clock provided on the SPI clock pin (SPCK). The SPI waits for NSS to go active before receiving the serial clock from an external master. When NSS falls, the clock is validated on the serializer, which processes the number of bits defined by the Bits Per Transfer field of the Chip Select Register 0 (CSR0.BITS). These bits are processed following a phase and a polarity defined respectively by the CSR0.NCPHA and CSR0.CPOL bits. Note that the BITS, CPOL, and NCPHA bits of the other Chip Select Registers have no effect when the SPI is configured in Slave Mode. The bits are shifted out on the MISO line and sampled on the MOSI line. When all the bits are processed, the received data is transferred in the Receive Data Register and the SR.RDRF bit rises. If the RDR register has not been read before new data is received, the SR.OVRES bit is set. Data is loaded in RDR even if this flag is set. The user has to read the SR register to clear the SR.OVRES bit. When a transfer starts, the data shifted out is the data present in the Shift Register. If no data has been written in the TDR register, the last data received is transferred. If no data has been received since the last reset, all bits are transmitted low, as the Shift Register resets to zero. When a first data is written in TDR, it is transferred immediately in the Shift Register and the SR.TDRE bit rises. If new data is written, it remains in TDR until a transfer occurs, i.e. NSS falls and there is a valid clock on the SPCK pin. When the transfer occurs, the last data written in TDR is transferred in the Shift Register and the SR.TDRE bit rises. This enables frequent updates of critical variables with single transfers. Then, a new data is loaded in the Shift Register from the TDR. In case no character is ready to be transmitted, i.e. no character has been written in TDR since the last load from TDR to the Shift Register, the Shift Register is not modified and the last received character is retransmitted. In this case the Underrun Error Status bit is set in SR (SR.UNDES).

The DLYBCS time guarantees nonoverlapping chip selects and solves bus contentions in case of peripherals having long data float times. If DLYBCS is less than or equal to six, six CLK_SPI periods will be inserted by default. Otherwise, the following equation determines the delay: • PCS: Peripheral Chip Select This field is only used if Fixed Peripheral Select is active (PS = 0).

When PCSDEC equals one, up to 15 Chip Select signals can be generated with the four lines using an external 4- to 16-bit decoder. The CSRn registers define the characteristics of the 15 chip selects according to the following rules: CSR0 defines peripheral chip select signals 0 to 3. CSR1 defines peripheral chip select signals 4 to 7. CSR2 defines peripheral chip select signals 8 to 11. CSR3 defines peripheral chip select signals 12 to 14. • PS: Peripheral Select 1: Variable Peripheral Select. 0: Fixed Peripheral Select. • MSTR: Master/Slave Mode 1: SPI is in master mode. 0: SPI is in slave mode. 503 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 21.8.3 Receive Data Register Name: RDR Access Type: Read-only Offset: 0x08 Reset Value: 0x00000000 • RD: Receive Data Data received by the SPI Interface is stored in this register right-justified.

The delay is always inserted after each transfer and before removing the chip select if needed. When DLYBCT equals zero, no delay between consecutive transfers is inserted and the clock keeps its duty cycle over the character transfers. Otherwise, the following equation determines the delay: • DLYBS: Delay Before SPCK This field defines the delay from NPCS valid to the first valid SPCK transition. When DLYBS equals zero, the NPCS valid to SPCK transition is 1/2 the SPCK clock period. Otherwise, the following equations determine the delay: • SCBR: Serial Clock Baud Rate In Master Mode, the SPI Interface uses a modulus counter to derive the SPCK baud rate from the CLK_SPI. The Baud rate is selected by writing a value from 1 to 255 in the SCBR field. The following equations determine the SPCK baud rate: Writing the SCBR field to zero is forbidden. Triggering a transfer while SCBR is zero can lead to unpredictable results. At reset, SCBR is zero and the user has to write it to a valid value before performing the first transfer. If a clock divider (SCBRn) field is set to one and the other SCBR fields differ from one, access on CSn is correct but no correct access will be possible on other CS. 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 DLYBCT 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 DLYBS 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 SCBR 76543210 BITS CSAAT CSNAAT NCPHA CPOL Delay Between Consecutive Transfers 32  DLYBCT CLKSPI = ------------------------------------ Delay Before SPCK DLYBS CLKSPI = --------------------- SPCK Baudrate CLKSPI SCBR = --------------------- 510 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • BITS: Bits Per Transfer The BITS field determines the number of data bits transferred.

Two-wire Master Interface (TWIM) Rev.: 1.1.0.1 22.1 Features • Compatible with I²C standard – Multi-master support – Transfer speeds of 100 and 400 kbit/s – 7- and 10-bit and General Call addressing • Compatible with SMBus standard – Hardware Packet Error Checking (CRC) generation and verification with ACK control – SMBus ALERT interface – 25 ms clock low timeout delay – 10 ms master cumulative clock low extend time – 25 ms slave cumulative clock low extend time • Compatible with PMBus • Compatible with Atmel Two-wire Interface Serial Memories • DMA interface for reducing CPU load • Arbitrary transfer lengths, including 0 data bytes • Optional clock stretching if transmit or receive buffers not ready for data transfer 22.2 Overview The Atmel Two-wire Master Interface (TWIM) interconnects components on a unique two-wire bus, made up of one clock line and one data line with speeds of up to 400 kbit/s, based on a byte-oriented transfer format. It can be used with any Atmel Two-wire Interface bus serial EEPROM and I²C compatible device such as a real time clock (RTC), dot matrix/graphic LCD controller, and temperature sensor, to name a few. The TWIM is always a bus master and can transfer sequential or single bytes. Multiple master capability is supported. Arbitration of the bus is performed internally and relinquishes the bus automatically if the bus arbitration is lost. A configurable baud rate generator permits the output data rate to be adapted to a wide range of core clock frequencies.Table 22-1 lists the compatibility level of the Atmel Two-wire Interface in Master Mode and a full I²C compatible device.

Application Block Diagram 22.6 I/O Lines Description 22.7 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 22.7.1 I/O Lines TWD and TWCK are bidirectional lines, connected to a positive supply voltage via a current source or pull-up resistor (see Figure 22-4 on page 531). When the bus is free, both lines are high. The output stages of devices connected to the bus must have an open-drain or open-collector to perform the wired-AND function. TWALM is used to implement the optional SMBus SMBALERT signal. The TWALM, TWD, and TWCK pins may be multiplexed with I/O Controller lines. To enable the TWIM, the user must perform the following steps: • Program the I/O Controller to: – Dedicate TWD, TWCK, and optionally TWALM as peripheral lines. – Define TWD, TWCK, and optionally TWALM as open-drain. 22.7.2 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the TWIM, the TWIM will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode.

This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the TWIM before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the TWIM in an undefined state. 22.7.4 DMA The TWIM DMA handshake interface is connected to the Peripheral DMA Controller. Using the TWIM DMA functionality requires the Peripheral DMA Controller to be programmed after setting up the TWIM. 22.7.5 Interrupts The TWIM interrupt request lines are connected to the interrupt controller. Using the TWIM interrupts requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 22.7.6 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the TWIM continues normal operation. If the TWIM is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 531 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 22.8 Functional Description 22.8.1 Transfer Format The data put on the TWD line must be 8 bits long. Data is transferred MSB first; each byte must be followed by an acknowledgement. The number of bytes per transfer is unlimited (see Figure 22-4). Each transfer begins with a START condition and terminates with a STOP condition (see Figure 22-4). • A high-to-low transition on the TWD line while TWCK is high defines the START condition. • A low-to-high transition on the TWD line while TWCK is high defines a STOP condition. Figure 22-3. START and STOP Conditions Figure 22-4. Transfer Format 22.8.2 Operation The TWIM has two modes of operation: • Master transmitter mode • Master receiver mode The master is the device which starts and stops a transfer and generates the TWCK clock. These modes are described in the following chapters. TWD TWCK Start Stop TWD TWCK Start Address R/W Ack Data Ack Data Ack Stop 532 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 22.8.2.1 Clock Generation The Clock Waveform Generator Register (CWGR) is used to control the waveform of the TWCK clock. CWGR must be written so that the desired TWI bus timings are generated. CWGR describes bus timings as a function of cycles of a prescaled clock. The clock prescaling can be selected through the Clock Prescaler field in CWGR (CWGR.EXP). CWGR has the following fields: LOW: Prescaled clock cycles in clock low count. Used to time TLOW and TBUF. HIGH: Prescaled clock cycles in clock high count. Used to time THIGH. STASTO: Prescaled clock cycles in clock high count. Used to time THD_STA, TSU_STA, TSU_STO. DATA: Prescaled clock cycles for data setup and hold count. Used to time THD_DAT, TSU_DAT. EXP: Specifies the clock prescaler setting. Note that the total clock low time generated is the sum of THD_DAT + TSU_DAT + TLOW. Any slave or other bus master taking part in the transfer may extend the TWCK low period at any time. The TWIM hardware monitors the state of the TWCK line as required by the I²C specification. The clock generation counters are started when a high/low level is detected on the TWCK line, not when the TWIM hardware releases/drives the TWCK line. This means that the CWGR settings alone do not determine the TWCK frequency. The CWGR settings determine the clock low time and the clock high time, but the TWCK rise and fall times are determined by the external circuitry (capacitive load, etc.). Figure 22-5.

TWIM status is provided in the Status Register (SR). The following list presents the main steps in a typical communication: 1. Before any transfers can be performed, bus timings must be configured by writing to the Clock Waveform Generator Register (CWGR). If operating in SMBus mode, the SMBus Timing Register (SMBTR) register must also be configured. 2. If the Peripheral DMA Controller is to be used for the transfers, it must be set up. 3. CMDR or NCMDR must be written with a value describing the transfer to be performed. The interrupt system can be set up to give interrupt requests on specific events or error conditions in the SR, for example when the transfer is complete or if arbitration is lost. The Interrupt Enable Register (IER) and Interrupt Disable Register (IDR) can be written to specify which bits in the SR will generate interrupt requests. The SR.BUSFREE bit is set when activity is completed on the two-wire bus. The SR.CRDY bit is set when CMDR and/or NCMDR is ready to receive one or more commands. The controller will refuse to start a new transfer while ANAK, DNAK, or ARBLST in the Status Register (SR) is one. This is necessary to avoid a race when the software issues a continuation of the current transfer at the same time as one of these errors happen. Also, if ANAK or DNAK occurs, a STOP condition is sent automatically. The user will have to restart the transmission by clearing the error bits in SR after resolving the cause for the NACK. After a data or address NACK from the slave, a STOP will be transmitted automatically. Note that the VALID bit in CMDR is NOT cleared in this case. If this transfer is to be discarded, the VALID bit can be cleared manually allowing any command in NCMDR to be copied into CMDR. When a data or address NACK is returned by the slave while the master is transmitting, it is possible that new data has already been written to the THR register. This data will be transferred out as the first data byte of the next transfer. If this behavior is to be avoided, the safest approach is to perform a software reset of the TWIM. 22.8.3 Master Transmitter Mode A START condition is transmitted and master transmitter mode is initiated when the bus is free and CMDR has been written with START=1 and READ=0. START and SADR+W will then be transmitted. During the address acknowledge clock pulse (9th pulse), the master releases the data line (HIGH), enabling the slave to pull it down in order to acknowledge the address. The master polls the data line during this clock pulse and sets the Address Not Acknowledged bit (ANAK) in the Status Register if no slave acknowledges the address. After the address phase, the following is repeated: while (NBYTES>0) 1. Wait until THR contains a valid data byte, stretching low period of TWCK. SR.TXRDY indicates the state of THR. Software or the Peripheral DMA Controller must write the data byte to THR. 2. Transmit this data byte 3. Decrement NBYTES 4. If (NBYTES==0) and STOP=1, transmit STOP condition Writing CMDR with START=STOP=1 and NBYTES=0 will generate a transmission with no data bytes, ie START, SADR+W, STOP. 534 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U TWI transfers require the slave to acknowledge each received data byte. During the acknowledge clock pulse (9th pulse), the master releases the data line (HIGH), enabling the slave to pull it down in order to generate the acknowledge. The master polls the data line during this clock pulse and sets the Data Acknowledge bit (DNACK) in the Status Register if the slave does not acknowledge the data byte. As with the other status bits, an interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER). TXRDY is used as Transmit Ready for the Peripheral DMA Controller transmit channel. The end of a command is marked when the TWIM sets the SR.CCOMP bit. See Figure 22-6 and Figure 22-7. Figure 22-6. Master Write with One Data Byte Figure 22-7. Master Write with Multiple Data Bytes 22.8.4 Master Receiver Mode A START condition is transmitted and master receiver mode is initiated when the bus is free and CMDR has been written with START=1 and READ=1. START and SADR+R will then be transmitted. During the address acknowledge clock pulse (9th pulse), the master releases the data line (HIGH), enabling the slave to pull it down in order to acknowledge the address. The master polls the data line during this clock pulse and sets the Address Not Acknowledged bit (ANAK) in the Status Register if no slave acknowledges the address. After the address phase, the following is repeated: while (NBYTES>0) TWD SR.IDLE TXRDY Write THR (DATA) NBYTES set to 1 STOP sent automatically (ACK received and NBYTES=0) S DADR W A DATA A P TWD SR.IDLE TXRDY Write THR (DATAn) NBYTES set to n STOP sent automatically (ACK received and NBYTES=0) S DADR W A DATAn A DATAn+5 A A DATAn+m P Write THR (DATAn+1) Write THR (DATAn+m) Last data sent 535 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 1. Wait until RHR is empty, stretching low period of TWCK. SR.RXRDY indicates the state of RHR. Software or the Peripheral DMA Controller must read any data byte present in RHR. 2. Release TWCK generating a clock that the slave uses to transmit a data byte. 3. Place the received data byte in RHR, set RXRDY. 4. If NBYTES=0, generate a NAK after the data byte, otherwise generate an ACK. 5. Decrement NBYTES 6. If (NBYTES==0) and STOP=1, transmit STOP condition. Writing CMDR with START=STOP=1 and NBYTES=0 will generate a transmission with no data bytes, ie START, DADR+R, STOP The TWI transfers require the master to acknowledge each received data byte. During the acknowledge clock pulse (9th pulse), the slave releases the data line (HIGH), enabling the master to pull it down in order to generate the acknowledge. All data bytes except the last are acknowledged by the master. Not acknowledging the last byte informs the slave that the transfer is finished. RXRDY is used as Receive Ready for the Peripheral DMA Controller receive channel. Figure 22-8. Master Read with One Data Byte Figure 22-9.

The user can set up ring buffers for the Peripheral DMA Controller, containing data to transmit or free buffer space to place received data. To assure correct behavior, respect the following programming sequences: 22.8.5.1 Data Transmit with the Peripheral DMA Controller 1. Initialize the transmit Peripheral DMA Controller (memory pointers, size, etc.). 2. Configure the TWIM (ADR, NBYTES, etc.). 3. Start the transfer by enabling the Peripheral DMA Controller to transmit. 4. Wait for the Peripheral DMA Controller end-of-transmit flag. 5. Disable the Peripheral DMA Controller. 22.8.5.2 Data Receive with the Peripheral DMA Controller 1. Initialize the receive Peripheral DMA Controller (memory pointers, size, etc.). 2. Configure the TWIM (ADR, NBYTES, etc.). 3. Start the transfer by enabling the Peripheral DMA Controller to receive. 4. Wait for the Peripheral DMA Controller end-of-receive flag. 5. Disable the Peripheral DMA Controller. 22.8.6 Multi-master Mode More than one master may access the bus at the same time without data corruption by using arbitration. Arbitration starts as soon as two or more masters place information on the bus at the same time, and stops (arbitration is lost) for the master that intends to send a logical one while the other master sends a logical zero. As soon as arbitration is lost by a master, it stops sending data and listens to the bus in order to detect a STOP. The SR.ARBLST flag will be set. When the STOP is detected, the master who lost arbitration may reinitiate the data transfer. Arbitration is illustrated in Figure 22-11. If the user starts a transfer and if the bus is busy, the TWIM automatically waits for a STOP condition on the bus before initiating the transfer (see Figure 22-10). Note: The state of the bus (busy or free) is not indicated in the user interface. 537 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 22-10. User Sends Data While the Bus is Busy Figure 22-11. Arbitration Cases 22.8.7 Combined Transfers CMDR and NCMDR may be used to generate longer sequences of connected transfers, since generation of START and/or STOP conditions is programmable on a per-command basis. Writing NCMDR with START=1 when the previous transfer was written with STOP=0 will cause a REPEATED START on the bus. The ability to generate such connected transfers allows arbitrary transfer lengths, since it is legal to write CMDR with both START=0 and STOP=0. If this is done in master receiver mode, the CMDR.ACKLAST bit must also be controlled. TWCK TWD DATA sent by a master STOP sent by the master START sent by the TWI DATA sent by the TWI Bus is busy Bus is free A transfer is programmed (DADR + W + START + Write THR) Transfer is initiated TWI DATA transfer Transfer is kept Bus is considered as free TWCK Bus is busy Bus is free A transfer is programmed (DADR + W + START + Write THR) Transfer is initiated TWI DATA transfer Transfer is kept Bus is considered as free Data from a Master Data from TWI S 0 S 0 0 1 1 1 ARBLST S 0 S 0 0 1 1 1 TWD S 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 Arbitration is lost TWI stops sending data P P S 1 0 0 1 1 Data from the master 1 1 Data from the TWI Arbitration is lost The master stops sending data Transfer is stopped Transfer is programmed again (DADR + W + START + Write THR) TWCK TWD 538 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U As for single data transfers, the TXRDY and RXRDY bits in the Status Register indicates when data to transmit can be written to THR, or when received data can be read from RHR. Transfer of data to THR and from RHR can also be done automatically by DMA, see Section 22.8.5 22.8.7.1 Write Followed by Write Consider the following transfer: START, DADR+W, DATA+A, DATA+A, REPSTART, DADR+W, DATA+A, DATA+A, STOP. To generate this transfer: 1. Write CMDR with START=1, STOP=0, DADR, NBYTES=2 and READ=0. 2. Write NCMDR with START=1, STOP=1, DADR, NBYTES=2 and READ=0. 3. Wait until SR.TXRDY==1, then write first data byte to transfer to THR. 4. Wait until SR.TXRDY==1, then write second data byte to transfer to THR. 5. Wait until SR.TXRDY==1, then write third data byte to transfer to THR. 6. Wait until SR.TXRDY==1, then write fourth data byte to transfer to THR. 22.8.7.2 Read Followed by Read Consider the following transfer: START, DADR+R, DATA+A, DATA+NA, REPSTART, DADR+R, DATA+A, DATA+NA, STOP. To generate this transfer: 1. Write CMDR with START=1, STOP=0, DADR, NBYTES=2 and READ=1. 2. Write NCMDR with START=1, STOP=1, DADR, NBYTES=2 and READ=1. 3. Wait until SR.RXRDY==1, then read first data byte received from RHR. 4. Wait until SR.RXRDY==1, then read second data byte received from RHR. 5. Wait until SR.RXRDY==1, then read third data byte received from RHR. 6. Wait until SR.RXRDY==1, then read fourth data byte received from RHR. If combining several transfers, without any STOP or REPEATED START between them, remember to write a one to the ACKLAST bit in CMDR to keep from ending each of the partial transfers with a NACK. 22.8.7.3 Write Followed by Read Consider the following transfer: START, DADR+W, DATA+A, DATA+A, REPSTART, DADR+R, DATA+A, DATA+NA, STOP. 539 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 22-12. Combining a Write and Read Transfer To generate this transfer: 1. Write CMDR with START=1, STOP=0, DADR, NBYTES=2 and READ=0. 2. Write NCMDR with START=1, STOP=1, DADR, NBYTES=2 and READ=1. 3.

Performing transfers with 10-bit addressing is similar to transfers with 7-bit addresses, except that bits 9:7 of CMDR.SADR must be written appropriately. In Figure 22-14 and Figure 22-15, the grey boxes represent signals driven by the master, the white boxes are driven by the slave. 22.8.8.1 Master Transmitter To perform a master transmitter transfer: 1. Write CMDR with TENBIT=1, REPSAME=0, READ=0, START=1, STOP=1 and the desired address and NBYTES value. Figure 22-14. A Write Transfer with 10-bit Addressing 22.8.8.2 Master Receiver When using master receiver mode with 10-bit addressing, CMDR.REPSAME must also be controlled. CMDR.REPSAME must be written to one when the address phase of the transfer should consist of only 1 address byte (the 11110xx byte) and not 2 address bytes. The I²C standard specifies that such addressing is required when addressing a slave for reads using 10-bit addressing. To perform a master receiver transfer: 1. Write CMDR with TENBIT=1, REPSAME=0, READ=0, START=1, STOP=0, NBYTES=0 and the desired address. 2. Write NCMDR with TENBIT=1, REPSAME=1, READ=1, START=1, STOP=1 and the desired address and NBYTES value. Figure 22-15. A Read Transfer with 10-bit Addressing 22.8.9 SMBus Mode SMBus mode is enabled and disabled by writing to the SMEN and SMDIS bits in CR. SMBus mode operation is similar to I²C operation with the following exceptions: • Only 7-bit addressing can be used. • The SMBus standard describes a set of timeout values to ensure progress and throughput on the bus. These timeout values must be written into SMBTR. • Transmissions can optionally include a CRC byte, called Packet Error Check (PEC). • A dedicated bus line, SMBALERT, allows a slave to get a master’s attention. • A set of addresses have been reserved for protocol handling, such as Alert Response Address (ARA) and Host Header (HH) Address. S SLAVE ADDRESS 1st 7 bits RW A1 A2 DATA A P SLAVE ADDRESS 2nd byte DATA AA 11110XX0 S SLAVE ADDRESS 1st 7 bits RW A1 A2 DATA A P SLAVE ADDRESS 2nd byte DATA A 11110XX0 Sr SLAVE ADDRESS 1st 7 bits RW A3 11110XX1 541 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 22.8.9.1 Packet Error Checking Each SMBus transfer can optionally end with a CRC byte, called the PEC byte. Writing a one to CMDR.PECEN enables automatic PEC handling in the current transfer. Transfers with and without PEC can freely be intermixed in the same system, since some slaves may not support PEC. The PEC LFSR is always updated on every bit transmitted or received, so that PEC handling on combined transfers will be correct. In master transmitter mode, the master calculates a PEC value and transmits it to the slave after all data bytes have been transmitted. Upon reception of this PEC byte, the slave will compare it to the PEC value it has computed itself. If the values match, the data was received correctly, and the slave will return an ACK to the master. If the PEC values differ, data was corrupted, and the slave will return a NACK value. The DNAK bit in SR reflects the state of the last received ACK/NACK value. Some slaves may not be able to check the received PEC in time to return a NACK if an error occurred. In this case, the slave should always return an ACK after the PEC byte, and some other mechanism must be implemented to verify that the transmission was received correctly. In master receiver mode, the slave calculates a PEC value and transmits it to the master after all data bytes have been transmitted. Upon reception of this PEC byte, the master will compare it to the PEC value it has computed itself. If the values match, the data was received correctly. If the PEC values differ, data was corrupted, and SR.PECERR is set. In master receiver mode, the PEC byte is always followed by a NACK transmitted by the master, since it is the last byte in the transfer. The PEC byte is automatically inserted in a master transmitter transmission if PEC is enabled when NBYTES reaches zero. The PEC byte is identified in a master receiver transmission if PEC is enabled when NBYTES reaches zero. NBYTES must therefore be written with the total number of data bytes in the transmission, including the PEC byte. In combined transfers, the PECEN bit should only be written to one in the last of the combined transfers. Consider the following transfer: S, ADR+W, COMMAND_BYTE, ACK, SR, ADR+R, DATA_BYTE, ACK, PEC_BYTE, NACK, P This transfer is generated by writing two commands to the command registers. The first command is a write with NBYTES=1 and PECEN=0, and the second is a read with NBYTES=2 and PECEN=1. Writing a one to the STOP bit in CR will place a STOP condition on the bus after the current byte. No PEC byte will be sent in this case. 22.8.9.2 Timeouts The TLOWS and TLOWM fields in SMBTR configure the SMBus timeout values. If a timeout occurs, the master will transmit a STOP condition and leave the bus. The SR.TOUT bit is set. 22.8.9.3 SMBus ALERT Signal A slave can get the master’s attention by pulling the TWALM line low. The TWIM will then set the SR.SMBALERT bit. This can be set up to trigger an interrupt, and software can then take the appropriate action, as defined in the SMBus standard. 542 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 22.8.10 Identifying Bus Events This chapter lists the different bus events, and how they affect bits in the TWIM registers.

This is the standard way of ending a master receiver transfer. 1: Causes the last byte in master receive mode (when NBYTES has reached 0) to be ACKed. Used for performing linked transfers in master receiver mode with no STOP or REPEATED START between the subtransfers. This is needed when more than 255 bytes are to be received in one single transmission. • PECEN: Packet Error Checking Enable 0: Causes the transfer not to use PEC byte verification. The PEC LFSR is still updated for every bit transmitted or received. Must be used if SMBus mode is disabled. 1: Causes the transfer to use PEC. PEC byte generation (if master transmitter) or PEC byte verification (if master receiver) will be performed. • NBYTES: Number of Data Bytes in Transfer The number of data bytes in the transfer. After the specified number of bytes have been transferred, a STOP condition is transmitted if CMDR.STOP is one. In SMBus mode, if PEC is used, NBYTES includes the PEC byte, i.e. there are NBYTES-1 data bytes and a PEC byte. • VALID: CMDR Valid 0: Indicates that CMDR does not contain a valid command. 1: Indicates that CMDR contains a valid command.

It can be used with any Atmel Two-wire Interface bus, I²C, or SMBus-compatible master. The TWIS is always a bus slave and can transfer sequential or single bytes. Below, Table 23-1 lists the compatibility level of the Atmel Two-wire Slave Interface and a full I²C compatible device. Note: 1. START + b000000001 + Ack + Sr Table 23-1.

Application Block Diagram 23.6 I/O Lines Description 23.7 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 23.7.1 I/O Lines TWDand TWCK are bidirectional lines, connected to a positive supply voltage via a current source or pull-up resistor (see Figure 23-5 on page 565). When the bus is free, both lines are high. The output stages of devices connected to the bus must have an open-drain or open-collector to perform the wired-AND function. TWALM is used to implement the optional SMBus SMBALERT signal. TWALM, TWD, and TWCK pins may be multiplexed with I/O Controller lines. To enable the TWIS, the user must perform the following steps: • Program the I/O Controller to: – Dedicate TWD, TWCK, and optionally TWALM as peripheral lines. – Define TWD, TWCK, and optionally TWALM as open-drain.

The TWIS is able to wake the system from sleep mode upon address match, see Section 23.8.8 on page 572. 23.7.3 Clocks The clock for the TWIS bus interface (CLK_TWIS) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the TWIS before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the TWIS in an undefined state. 23.7.4 DMA The TWIS DMA handshake interface is connected to the Peripheral DMA Controller. Using the TWIS DMA functionality requires the Peripheral DMA Controller to be programmed after setting up the TWIS. 23.7.5 Interrupts The TWIS interrupt request lines are connected to the interrupt controller. Using the TWIS interrupts requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 23.7.6 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the TWIS continues normal operation. If the TWIS is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 23.8 Functional Description 23.8.1 Transfer Format The data put on the TWD line must be 8 bits long. Data is transferred MSB first; each byte must be followed by an acknowledgement. The number of bytes per transfer is unlimited (see Figure 23-4 on page 565). Each transfer begins with a START condition and terminates with a STOP condition (see Figure 23-3). • A high-to-low transition on the TWD line while TWCK is high defines the START condition. • A low-to-high transition on the TWD line while TWCK is high defines a STOP condition. Figure 23-3. START and STOP Conditions TWD TWCK Start Stop 565 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 23-4. Transfer Format 23.8.2 Operation The TWIS has two modes of operation: • Slave transmitter mode • Slave receiver mode A master is a device which starts and stops a transfer and generates the TWCK clock. A slave is assigned an address and responds to requests from the master. These modes are described in the following chapters. Figure 23-5. Typical Application Block Diagram 23.8.2.1 Bus Timing The Timing Register (TR) is used to control the timing of bus signals driven by the TWIS. TR describes bus timings as a function of cycles of the prescaled CLK_TWIS. The clock prescaling can be selected through TR.EXP. TR has the following fields: TLOWS: Prescaled clock cycles used to time SMBUS timeout TLOW:SEXT.

Bus Timing Diagram 23.8.2.2 Setting Up and Performing a Transfer Operation of the TWIS is mainly controlled by the Control Register (CR). The following list presents the main steps in a typical communication: 3. Before any transfers can be performed, bus timings must be configured by writing to the Timing Register (TR).If the Peripheral DMA Controller is to be used for the transfers, it must be set up. 4. The Control Register (CR) must be configured with information such as the slave address, SMBus mode, Packet Error Checking (PEC), number of bytes to transfer, and which addresses to match. The interrupt system can be set up to generate interrupt request on specific events or error conditions, for example when a byte has been received. The NBYTES register is only used in SMBus mode, when PEC is enabled. In I²C mode or in SMBus mode when PEC is disabled, the NBYTES register is not used, and should be written to zero. NBYTES is updated by hardware, so in order to avoid hazards, software updates of NBYTES can only be done through writes to the NBYTES register. 23.8.2.3 Address Matching The TWIS can be set up to match several different addresses. More than one address match may be enabled simultaneously, allowing the TWIS to be assigned to several addresses. The address matching phase is initiated after a START or REPEATED START condition. When the TWIS receives an address that generates an address match, an ACK is automatically returned to the master. S t HD:STA t LOW t SU:DAT t HIGH t HD:DAT t LOW P t SU:STO Sr t SU:STA t SU:DAT 567 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U In I²C mode: • The address in CR.ADR is checked for address match if CR.SMATCH is one. • The General Call address is checked for address match if CR.GCMATCH is one. In SMBus mode: • The address in CR.ADR is checked for address match if CR.SMATCH is one. • The Alert Response Address is checked for address match if CR.SMAL is one. • The Default Address is checked for address match if CR.SMDA is one. • The Host Header Address is checked for address match if CR.SMHH is one. 23.8.2.4 Clock Stretching Any slave or bus master taking part in a transfer may extend the TWCK low period at any time. The TWIS may extend the TWCK low period after each byte transfer if CR.STREN is one and: • Module is in slave transmitter mode, data should be transmitted, but THR is empty, or • Module is in slave receiver mode, a byte has been received and placed into the internal shifter, but the Receive Holding Register (RHR) is full, or • Stretch-on-address-match bit CR.SOAM=1 and slave was addressed. Bus clock remains stretched until all address match bits in the Status Register (SR) have been cleared. If CR.STREN is zero and: • Module is in slave transmitter mode, data should be transmitted but THR is empty: Transmit the value present in THR (the last transmitted byte or reset value), and set SR.URUN. • Module is in slave receiver mode, a byte has been received and placed into the internal shifter, but RHR is full: Discard the received byte and set SR.ORUN. 23.8.2.5 Bus Errors If a bus error (misplaced START or STOP) condition is detected, the SR.BUSERR bit is set and the TWIS waits for a new START condition. 23.8.3 Slave Transmitter Mode If the TWIS matches an address in which the R/W bit in the TWI address phase transfer is set, it will enter slave transmitter mode and set the SR.TRA bit (note that SR.TRA is set one CLK_TWIS cycle after the relevant address match bit in the same register is set). After the address phase, the following actions are performed: 1. If SMBus mode and PEC is used, NBYTES must be set up with the number of bytes to transmit. This is necessary in order to know when to transmit the PEC byte. NBYTES can also be used to count the number of bytes received if using DMA. 2. Byte to transmit depends on I²C/SMBus mode and CR.PEC: – If in I²C mode or CR.PEC is zero or NBYTES is non-zero: The TWIS waits until THR contains a valid data byte, possibly stretching the low period of TWCK. After THR contains a valid data byte, the data byte is transferred to a shifter, and then SR.TXRDY is changed to one because the THR is empty again. – SMBus mode and CR.PEC is one: If NBYTES is zero, the generated PEC byte is automatically transmitted instead of a data byte from THR. TWCK will not be stretched by the TWIS. 3. The data byte in the shifter is transmitted. 568 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 4. NBYTES is updated. If CR.CUP is one, NBYTES is incremented, otherwise NBYTES is decremented. 5. After each data byte has been transmitted, the master transmits an ACK (Acknowledge) or NAK (Not Acknowledge) bit. If a NAK bit is received by the TWIS, the SR.NAK bit is set. Note that this is done two CLK_TWIS cycles after TWCK has been sampled by the TWIS to be HIGH (see Figure 23-9). The NAK indicates that the transfer is finished, and the TWIS will wait for a STOP or REPEATED START. If an ACK bit is received, the SR.NAK bit remains LOW. The ACK indicates that more data should be transmitted, jump to step 2. At the end of the ACK/NAK clock cycle, the Byte Transfer Finished (SR.BTF) bit is set. Note that this is done two CLK_TWIS cycles after TWCK has been sampled by the TWIS to be LOW (see Figure 23-9). Also note that in the event that SR.NAK bit is set, it must not be cleared before the SR.BTF bit is set to ensure correct TWIS behavior. 6. If STOP is received, SR.TCOMP and SR.STO will be set. 7. If REPEATED START is received, SR.REP will be set. The TWI transfers require the receiver to acknowledge each received data byte. During the acknowledge clock pulse (9th pulse), the slave releases the data line (HIGH), enabling the master to pull it down in order to generate the acknowledge. The slave polls the data line during this clock pulse and sets the NAK bit in SR if the master does not acknowledge the data byte. A NAK means that the master does not wish to receive additional data bytes. As with the other status bits, an interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER). SR.TXRDY is used as Transmit Ready for the Peripheral DMA Controller transmit channel. The end of the complete transfer is marked by the SR.TCOMP bit changing from zero to one. See Figure 23-7 and Figure 23-8. Figure 23-7.

Slave Transmitter with Multiple Data Bytes Figure 23-9. Timing Relationship between TWCK, SR.NAK, and SR.BTF 23.8.4 Slave Receiver Mode If the TWIS matches an address in which the R/W bit in the TWI address phase transfer is cleared, it will enter slave receiver mode and clear SR.TRA (note that SR.TRA is cleared one CLK_TWIS cycle after the relevant address match bit in the same register is set). After the address phase, the following is repeated: 1. If SMBus mode and PEC is used, NBYTES must be set up with the number of bytes to receive. This is necessary in order to know which of the received bytes is the PEC byte. NBYTES can also be used to count the number of bytes received if using DMA. 2. Receive a byte. Set SR.BTF when done. 3. Update NBYTES. If CR.CUP is written to one, NBYTES is incremented, otherwise NBYTES is decremented. NBYTES is usually configured to count downwards if PEC is used. 4. After a data byte has been received, the slave transmits an ACK or NAK bit. For ordinary data bytes, the CR.ACK field controls if an ACK or NAK should be returned. If PEC is enabled and the last byte received was a PEC byte (indicated by NBYTES equal to zero), The TWIS will automatically return an ACK if the PEC value was correct, otherwise a NAK will be returned. 5. If STOP is received, SR.TCOMP will be set. 6. If REPEATED START is received, SR.REP will be set. The TWI transfers require the receiver to acknowledge each received data byte. During the acknowledge clock pulse (9th pulse), the master releases the data line (HIGH), enabling the S DADR R DATA n+5 A P A DATA n A DATA n+m N TCOMP TXRDY Write THR (Data n) NBYTES set to m STOP sent by master TWD Write THR (Data n+1) Write THR (Data n+m) Last data sent DATA (LSB) N P TWCK SR.NAK SR.BTF t1 t1 t1: (CLK_TWIS period) x 2 TWD 570 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U slave to pull it down in order to generate the acknowledge. The master polls the data line during this clock pulse. The SR.RXRDY bit indicates that a data byte is available in the RHR. The RXRDY bit is also used as Receive Ready for the Peripheral DMA Controller receive channel. Figure 23-10. Slave Receiver with One Data Byte Figure 23-11. Slave Receiver with Multiple Data Bytes 23.8.5 Interactive ACKing Received Data Bytes When implementing a register interface over TWI, it may sometimes be necessary or just useful to report reads and writes to invalid register addresses by sending a NAK to the host. To be able to do this, one must first receive the register address from the TWI bus, and then tell the TWIS whether to ACK or NAK it. In normal operation of the TWIS, this is not possible because the controller will automatically ACK the byte at about the same time as the RXRDY bit changes from zero to one. Writing a one to the Stretch on Data Byte Received bit (CR.SODR) will stretch the clock allowing the user to update CR.ACK bit before returning the desired value. After the last bit in the data byte is received, the TWI bus clock is stretched, the received data byte is transferred to the RHR register, and SR.BTF is set. At this time, the user can examine the received byte and write the desired ACK or NACK value to CR.ACK. When the user clears SR.BTF, the desired ACK value is transferred on the TWI bus. This makes it possible to look at the byte received, determine if it is valid, and then decide to ACK or NAK it. 23.8.6 Using the Peripheral DMA Controller The use of the Peripheral DMA Controller significantly reduces the CPU load. The user can set up ring buffers for the Peripheral DMA Controller, containing data to transmit or free buffer space to place received data. By initializing NBYTES to zero before a transfer, and writing a one to CR.CUP, NBYTES is incremented by one each time a data has been transmitted or received. This allows the user to detect how much data was actually transferred by the DMA system. S DADR W DATA A P A TCOMP RXRDY Read RHR TWD TWD S DADR W DATA n A A A DATA (n+1) A DATA (n+m) DATA (n+m)-1 P A TCOMP RXRDY Read RHR DATA n Read RHR DATA (n+1) Read RHR DATA (n+m)-1 Read RHR DATA (n+m) 571 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U To assure correct behavior, respect the following programming sequences: 23.8.6.1 Data Transmit with the Peripheral DMA Controller 1. Initialize the transmit Peripheral DMA Controller (memory pointers, size, etc.). 2. Configure the TWIS (ADR, NBYTES, etc.). 3. Start the transfer by enabling the Peripheral DMA Controller to transmit. 4. Wait for the Peripheral DMA Controller end-of-transmit flag. 5. Disable the Peripheral DMA Controller. 23.8.6.2 Data Receive with the Peripheral DMA Controller 1. Initialize the receive Peripheral DMA Controller (memory pointers, size - 1, etc.). 2. Configure the TWIS (ADR, NBYTES, etc.). 3. Start the transfer by enabling the Peripheral DMA Controller to receive. 4. Wait for the Peripheral DMA Controller end-of-receive flag. 5. Disable the Peripheral DMA Controller. 23.8.7 SMBus Mode SMBus mode is enabled by writing a one to the SMBus Mode Enable (SMEN) bit in CR. SMBus mode operation is similar to I²C operation with the following exceptions: • Only 7-bit addressing can be used. • The SMBus standard describes a set of timeout values to ensure progress and throughput on the bus. These timeout values must be written to TR. • Transmissions can optionally include a CRC byte, called Packet Error Check (PEC). • A dedicated bus line, SMBALERT, allows a slave to get a master’s attention. • A set of addresses have been reserved for protocol handling, such as Alert Response Address (ARA) and Host Header (HH) Address. Address matching on these addresses can be enabled by configuring CR appropriately. 23.8.7.1 Packet Error Checking (PEC) Each SMBus transfer can optionally end with a CRC byte, called the PEC byte. Writing a one to the Packet Error Checking Enable (PECEN) bit in CR enables automatic PEC handling in the current transfer. The PEC generator is always updated on every bit transmitted or received, so that PEC handling on following linked transfers will be correct. In slave receiver mode, the master calculates a PEC value and transmits it to the slave after all data bytes have been transmitted. Upon reception of this PEC byte, the slave will compare it to the PEC value it has computed itself. If the values match, the data was received correctly, and the slave will return an ACK to the master. If the PEC values differ, data was corrupted, and the slave will return a NAK value. The SR.SMBPECERR bit is set automatically if a PEC error occurred. In slave transmitter mode, the slave calculates a PEC value and transmits it to the master after all data bytes have been transmitted. Upon reception of this PEC byte, the master will compare it to the PEC value it has computed itself. If the values match, the data was received correctly. If the PEC values differ, data was corrupted, and the master must take appropriate action. The PEC byte is automatically inserted in a slave transmitter transmission if PEC enabled when NBYTES reaches zero. The PEC byte is identified in a slave receiver transmission if PEC 572 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U enabled when NBYTES reaches zero. NBYTES must therefore be set to the total number of data bytes in the transmission, including the PEC byte. 23.8.7.2 Timeouts The Timing Register (TR) configures the SMBus timeout values. If a timeout occurs, the slave will leave the bus. The SR.SMBTOUT bit is also set. 23.8.7.3 SMBALERT A slave can get the master’s attention by pulling the SMBALERT line low. This is done by writing a one to the SMBus Alert (SMBALERT) bit in CR. This will also enable address match on the Alert Response Address (ARA). 23.8.8 Wakeup from Sleep Modes by TWI Address Match The TWIS is able to wake the device up from a sleep mode upon an address match, including sleep modes where CLK_TWIS is stopped. After detecting the START condition on the bus, The TWIS will stretch TWCK until CLK_TWIS has started. The time required for starting CLK_TWIS depends on which sleep mode the device is in. After CLK_TWIS has started, the TWIS releases its TWCK stretching and receives one byte of data on the bus. At this time, only a limited part of the device, including the TWIS, receives a clock, thus saving power. The TWIS goes on to receive the slave address. If the address phase causes a TWIS address match, the entire device is wakened and normal TWIS address matching actions are performed. Normal TWI transfer then follows. If the TWIS is not addressed, CLK_TWIS is automatically stopped and the device returns to its original sleep mode. 23.8.9 Identifying Bus Events This chapter lists the different bus events, and how these affects the bits in the TWIS registers. This is intended to help writing drivers for the TWIS. Table 23-5. Bus Events Event Effect Slave transmitter has sent a data byte SR.THR is cleared. SR.BTF is set. The value of the ACK bit sent immediately after the data byte is given by CR.ACK. Slave receiver has received a data byte SR.RHR is set. SR.BTF is set. SR.NAK updated according to value of ACK bit received from master. Start+Sadr on bus, but address is to another slave None. Start+Sadr on bus, current slave is addressed, but address match enable bit in CR is not set None. Start+Sadr on bus, current slave is addressed, corresponding address match enable bit in CR set Correct address match bit in SR is set. SR.TRA updated according to transfer direction (updating is done one CLK_TWIS cycle after address match bit is set) Slave enters appropriate transfer direction mode and data transfer can commence. 573 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Start+Sadr on bus, current slave is addressed, corresponding address match enable bit in CR set, SR.STREN and SR.SOAM are set. Correct address match bit in SR is set. SR.TRA updated according to transfer direction (updating is done one CLK_TWIS cycle after address match bit is set). Slave stretches TWCK immediately after transmitting the address ACK bit. TWCK remains stretched until all address match bits in SR have been cleared. Slave enters appropriate transfer direction mode and data transfer can commence. Repeated Start received after being addressed SR.REP set. SR.TCOMP unchanged. Stop received after being addressed SR.STO set. SR.TCOMP set. Start, Repeated Start, or Stop received in illegal position on bus SR.BUSERR set. SR.STO and SR.TCOMP may or may not be set depending on the exact position of an illegal stop. Data is to be received in slave receiver mode, SR.STREN is set, and RHR is full TWCK is stretched until RHR has been read. Data is to be transmitted in slave receiver mode, SR.STREN is set, and THR is empty TWCK is stretched until THR has been written. Data is to be received in slave receiver mode, SR.STREN is cleared, and RHR is full TWCK is not stretched, read data is discarded. SR.ORUN is set. Data is to be transmitted in slave receiver mode, SR.STREN is cleared, and THR is empty TWCK is not stretched, previous contents of THR is written to bus. SR.URUN is set. SMBus timeout received SR.SMBTOUT is set. TWCK and TWD are immediately released. Slave transmitter in SMBus PEC mode has transmitted a PEC byte, that was not identical to the PEC calculated by the master receiver. Master receiver will transmit a NAK as usual after the last byte of a master receiver transfer. Master receiver will retry the transfer at a later time. Slave receiver discovers SMBus PEC Error SR.SMBPECERR is set. NAK returned after the data byte. Table 23-5. Bus Events Event Effect 574 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 23.9 User Interface Note: 1.

Inter-IC Sound Controller (IISC) Rev: 1.0.0.0 24.1 Features • Compliant with Inter-IC Sound (I2 S) bus specification • Master, slave, and controller modes: – Slave: data received/transmitted – Master: data received/transmitted and clocks generated – Controller: clocks generated • Individual enable and disable of receiver, transmitter, and clocks • Configurable clock generator common to receiver and transmitter: – Suitable for a wide range of sample frequencies (fs), including 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz, and 192kHz – 16fs to 1024fs Master Clock generated for external oversampling ADCs • Several data formats supported: – 32-, 24-, 20-, 18-, 16-, and 8-bit mono or stereo format – 16- and 8-bit compact stereo format, with left and right samples packed in the same word to reduce data transfers • DMA interfaces for receiver and transmitter to reduce processor overhead: – Either one DMA channel for both audio channels, or – One DMA channel per audio channel • Smart holding registers management to avoid audio channels mix after overrun or underrun 24.2 Overview The Inter-IC Sound Controller (IISC) provides a 5-wire, bidirectional, synchronous, digital audio link with external audio devices: ISDI, ISDO, IWS, ISCK, and IMCK pins. This controller is compliant with the Inter-IC Sound (I2 S) bus specification. The IISC consists of a Receiver, a Transmitter, and a common Clock Generator, that can be enabled separately, to provide Master, Slave, or Controller modes with Receiver, Transmitter, or both active. Peripheral DMA channels, separate for the Receiver and for the Transmitter, allow a continuous high bitrate data transfer without processor intervention to the following: • Audio CODECs in Master, Slave, or Controller mode • Stereo DAC or ADC through dedicated I2 S serial interface The IISC can use either a single DMA channel for both audio channels or one DMA channel per audio channel. The 8- and 16-bit compact stereo format allows reducing the required DMA bandwidth by transferring the left and right samples within the same data word. In Master Mode, the IISC allows outputting a 16 fs to 1024fs Master Clock, in order to provide an oversampling clock to an external audio codec or digital signal processor (DSP). 592 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 24.3 Block Diagram Figure 24-1. IISC Block Diagram 24.4 I/O Lines Description 24.5 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 24.5.1 I/O lines The IISC pins may be multiplexed with I/O Controller lines. The user must first program the I/O Controller to assign the desired IISC pins to their peripheral function. If the IISC I/O lines are not used by the application, they can be used for other purposes by the I/O Controller. It is required to enable only the IISC inputs and outputs actually in use. 24.5.2 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the IISC, the IISC will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode.I/O Controller ISCK IWS ISDI ISDO IMCK Receiver Clocks Transmitter Peripheral Bus interface Generic clock PB Peripheral Bus Bridge Interrupt Controller SCIF Power Manager PB clock IRQ Peripheral DMA Controller Rx Tx IISC Table 24-1.

This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the IISC before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the IISC in an undefined state. One of the generic clocks is connected to the IISC. The generic clock (GCLK_IISC) can be set to a wide range of frequencies and clock sources. The GCLK_IISC must be enabled and configured before use. Refer to the module configuration section for details on the GCLK_IISC used for the IISC. The frequency for this clock has to be set as described in Table. 24.5.4 DMA The IISC DMA handshake interfaces are connected to the Peripheral DMA Controller. Using the IISC DMA functionality requires the Peripheral DMA Controller to be programmed first. 24.5.5 Interrupts The IISC interrupt line is connected to the Interrupt Controller. Using the IISC interrupt requires the Interrupt Controller to be programmed first. 24.5.6 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the IISC continues normal operation. If this module is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupt requests or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 24.6 Functional Description 24.6.1 Initialization The IISC features a Receiver, a Transmitter, and, for Master and Controller modes, a Clock Generator. Receiver and Transmitter share the same Serial Clock and Word Select. Before enabling the IISC, the chosen configuration must be written to the Mode Register (MR). The IMCKMODE, MODE, and DATALENGTH fields in the MR register must be written. If the IMCKMODE field is written as one, then the IMCKFS field should be written with the chosen ratio, as described in Section 24.6.5 ”Serial Clock and Word Select Generation” on page 595. Once the Mode Register has been written, the IISC Clock Generator, Receiver, and Transmitter can be enabled by writing a one to the CKEN, RXEN, and TXEN bits in the Control Register (CR). The Clock Generator can be enabled alone, in Controller Mode, to output clocks to the IMCK, ISCK, and IWS pins. The Clock Generator must also be enabled if the Receiver or the Transmitter is enabled. The Clock Generator, Receiver, and Transmitter can be disabled independently by writing a one to CR.CXDIS, CR.RXDIS and/or CR.TXDIS respectively. Once requested to stop, they will only stop when the transmission of the pending frame transmission will be completed. 24.6.2 Basic Operation The Receiver can be operated by reading the Receiver Holding Register (RHR), whenever the Receive Ready (RXRDY) bit in the Status Register (SR) is set. Successive values read from RHR will correspond to the samples from the left and right audio channels for the successive frames. 594 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The Transmitter can be operated by writing to the Transmitter Holding Register (RHR), whenever the Transmit Ready (TXRDY) bit in the Status Register (SR) is set. Successive values written to THR should correspond to the samples from the left and right audio channels for the successive frames. The Receive Ready and Transmit Ready bits can be polled by reading the Status Register. The IISC processor load can be reduced by enabling interrupt-driven operation. The RXRDY and/or TXRDY interrupt requests can be enabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER). The interrupt service routine associated to the IISC interrupt request will then be executed whenever the Receive Ready or the Transmit Ready status bit is set. 24.6.3 Master, Controller, and Slave Modes In Master and Controller modes, the IISC provides the Master Clock, the Serial Clock and the Word Select. IMCK, ISCK, and IWS pins are outputs. In Controller mode, the IISC Receiver and Transmitter are disabled. Only the clocks are enabled and used by an external receiver and/or transmitter. In Slave mode, the IISC receives the Serial Clock and the Word Select from an external master. ISCK and IWS pins are inputs. The mode is selected by writing the MODE field of the Mode Register (MR). Since the MODE field changes the direction of the IWS and ISCK pins, the Mode Register should only be written when the IISC is stopped, in order to avoid unwanted glitches on the IWS and ISCK pins. 24.6.4 I2 S Reception and Transmission Sequence As specified in the I2 S protocol, data bits are left-adjusted in the Word Select time slot, with the MSB transmitted first, starting one clock period after the transition on the Word Select line. Figure 24-2. I 2 S Reception and Transmission Sequence Data bits are sent on the falling edge of the Serial Clock and sampled on the rising edge of the Serial Clock. The Word Select line indicates the channel in transmission, a low level for the left channel and a high level for the right channel. The length of transmitted words can be chosen among 8, 16, 18, 20, 24, and 32 bits by writing the MR.DATALENGTH field. If the time slot allows for more data bits than written in the MR.DATALENGTH field, zeroes are appended to the transmitted data word or extra received bits are discarded. If the time slot allows for less data bits than written, the extra bits to be transmitted are not sent or the missing bits are set to zero in the received data word. Serial Clock ISCK Word Select IWS Data ISDI/ISDO MSB Left Channel LSB MSB Right Channel 595 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 24.6.5 Serial Clock and Word Select Generation The generation of clocks in the IISC is described in Figure 24-3 on page 596. In Slave mode, the Serial Clock and Word Select Clock are driven by an external master. ISCK and IWS pins are inputs and no generic clock is required by the IISC. In Master mode, the user can configure the Master Clock, Serial Clock, and Word Select Clock through the Mode Register (MR). IMCK, ISCK, and IWS pins are outputs and a generic clock is used to derive the IISC clocks. Audio codecs connected to the IISC pins may require a Master Clock signal with a frequency multiple of the audio sample frequency (fs), such as 256fs. When the IISC is in Master mode, writing a one to MR.IMCKMODE will output GCLK_IISC as Master Clock to the IMCK pin, and will divide GCLK_IISC to create the internal bit clock, output on the ISCK pin. The clock division factor is defined by writing to MR.IMCKFS and MR.DATALENGTH, as described ”IMCKFS: Master Clock to fs Ratio” on page 602. The Master Clock (IMCK) frequency is 16*(IMCKFS+1) times the sample frequency (fs), i.e. IWS frequency. The Serial Clock (ISCK) frequency is 2*Slot Length times the sample frequency (fs), where Slot Length is defined in Table 24-2 on page 595. Warning: MR.IMCKMODE should only be written as one if the Master Clock frequency is strictly higher than the Serial Clock. If a Master Clock output is not required, the GCLK_IISC generic clock is used as ISCK, by writing a zero to MR.IMCKMODE. Alternatively, if the frequency of the generic clock used is a multiple of the required ISCK frequency, the IMCK to ISCK divider can be used with the ratio defined by writing the MR.IMCKFS field. The IWS pin is used as Word Select as described in Section 24.6.4. Table 24-2. Slot Length MR.DATALENGTH Word Length Slot Length 0 32 bits 32 1 24 bits 32 if MR.IWS24 is zero 24 if MR.IWS24 is one 2 20 bits 3 18 bits 4 16 bits 16 5 16 bits compact stereo 6 8 bits 8 7 8 bits compact stereo 596 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 24-3. IISC Clocks Generation 24.6.6 Mono When the Transmit Mono (TXMONO) in the Mode Register is set, data written to the left channel is duplicated to the right output channel. When the Receive Mono (RXMONO) in the Mode Register is set, data received from the left channel is duplicated to the right channel. 24.6.7 Holding Registers The IISC user interface includes a Receive Holding Register (RHR) and a Transmit Holding Register (THR). RHR and THR are used to access audio samples for both audio channels. When a new data word is available in the RHR register, the Receive Ready bit (RXRDY) in the Status Register (SR) is set. Reading the RHR register will clear this bit. A receive overrun condition occurs if a new data word becomes available before the previous data word has been read from the RHR register. Then, the Receive Overrun bit in the Status Register will be set and bit i of the RXORCH field in the Status Register is set, where i is the current receive channel number. When the THR register is empty, the Transmit Ready bit (TXRDY) in the Status Register (SR) is set. Writing into the THR register will clear this bit. A transmit underrun condition occurs if a new data word needs to be transmitted before it has been written to the THR register. Then, the Transmit Underrun bit in the Status Register will be set and bit i of the TXORCH field in the Status Register is set, where i is the current transmit channel number. If the TXSAME bit in the Mode Register is zero, then a zero data word is transmitted in case of underrun. If MR.TXSAME is one, then the previous data word for the current transmit channel number is transmitted. MR.MODE = SLAVE Clock divider MR.DATALENGTH GCLK_IISC Clock enable Clock divider CR.CKEN/CKDIS MR.IMCKMODE MR.DATALENGTH MR.IMCKFS MR.IMCKMODE 0 1 IMCK pin output Clock enable CR.CKEN/CKDIS Internal bit clock ISCK pin input 1 0 ISCK pin output Internal word clock IWS pin input 1 0 IWS pin output 597 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Data words are right-justified in the RHR and THR registers. For 16-bit compact stereo, the left sample uses bits 15 through 0 and the right sample uses bits 31 through 16 of the same data word. For 8-bit compact stereo, the left sample uses bits 7 through 0 and the right sample uses bits 15 through 8 of the same data word. 24.6.8 DMA Operation The Receiver and the Transmitter can each be connected either to one single Peripheral DMA channel or to one Peripheral DMA channel per data channel. This is selected by writing to the MR.RXDMA and MR.TXDMA bits. If a single Peripheral DMA channel is selected, all data samples use IISC Receiver or Transmitter DMA channel 0. The Peripheral DMA reads from the RHR register and writes to the RHR register for both audio channels, successively. The Peripheral DMA transfers may use 32-bit word, 16-bit halfword, or 8-bit byte according to the value of the MR.DATALENGTH field. 24.6.9 Loop-back Mode For debugging purposes, the IISC can be configured to loop back the Transmitter to the Receiver. Writing a one to the MR.LOOP bit will internally connect ISDO to ISDI, so that the transmitted data is also received. Writing a zero to MR.LOOP will restore the normal behavior with independent Receiver and Transmitter. As for other changes to the Receiver or Transmitter configuration, the IISC Receiver and Transmitter must be disabled before writing to the MR register to update MR.LOOP. 24.6.10 Interrupts An IISC interrupt request can be triggered whenever one or several of the following bits are set in the Status Register (SR): Receive Ready (RXRDY), Receive Overrun (RXOR), Transmit Ready (TXRDY), or Transmit Underrun (TXOR). The interrupt request will be generated if the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR) is set. Bits in IMR are set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER), and cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Disable Register (IDR). The interrupt request remains active until the corresponding bit in SR is cleared by writing a one the corresponding bit in the Status Clear Register (SCR). For debugging purposes, interrupt requests can be simulated by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Status Set Register (SSR). 598 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 24-4.

The number of channels is specific to the device. Each channel controls one square output PWM waveform. Characteristics of the output PWM waveforms such as period and duty cycle are configured through the user interface. All user interface registers are mapped on the peripheral bus. The duty cycle value for each channel can be set independently, while the period is determined by a common timebase counter (TC). The timebase for the counter is selected by using the allocated asynchronous Generic Clock (GCLK). The user interface for the PWMA contains handshake and synchronizing logic to ensure that no glitches occur on the output PWM waveforms while changing the duty cycle values. PWMA duty cycle values can be changed using two approaches, either an interlinked singlevalue mode or an interlinked multi-value mode. In the interlinked single-value mode, any set of channels, up to 32 channels, can be updated simultaneously with the same value while the other channels remain unchanged. There is also an interlinked multi-value mode, where the 8 least significant bits of up to 4 channels can be updated with 4 different values while the other channels remain unchanged. Some pins can be driven in open drain mode, allowing the PWMA to generate a 5V waveform using an external pullup resistor. 616 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 25.3 Block Diagram Figure 25-1.

The programmer must first program the I/O Controller to assign the desired PWMA pins to their peripheral function. It is only required to enable the PWMA outputs actually in use. 25.5.2 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the PWMA, the PWMA will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. 25.5.3 Clocks The clock for the PWMA bus interface (CLK_PWMA) is controlled by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the PWMA before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the PWMA in an undefined state. Additionally, the PWMA depends on a dedicated Generic Clock (GCLK). The GCLK can be set to a wide range of frequencies and clock sources and must be enabled in the System Control Interface (SCIF) before the PWMA can be used. 25.5.4 Interrupts The PWMA interrupt request lines are connected to the interrupt controller. Using the PWMA interrupts requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 25.5.5 Peripheral Events The PWMA peripheral events are connected via the Peripheral Event System. Refer to the Peripheral Event System chapter for details. 25.5.6 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the PWMA continues normal operation. If the PWMA is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupts, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 25.6 Functional Description The PWMA embeds a number of PWM channel submodules, each providing an output PWM waveform. Each PWM channel contains a duty cycle register and a comparator. A common timebase counter for all channels determines the frequency and the period for all the PWM waveforms. 25.6.1 Enabling the PWMA Once the GCLK has been enabled, the PWMA is enabled by writing a one to the EN bit in the Control Register (CR). 25.6.2 Timebase Counter The top value of the timebase counter defines the period of the PWMA output waveform. The timebase counter starts at zero when the PWMA is enabled and counts upwards until it reaches its effective top value (ETV). The effective top value is defined by specifying the desired number of GCLK clock cycles in the TOP field of Top Value Register (TVR.TOP) in normal operation (the 618 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U SPREAD field of CR (CR.SPREAD) is zero). When the timebase counter reaches its effective top value, it restarts counting from zero. The period of the PWMA output waveform is then: The timebase counter can be reset by writing a one to the Timebase Clear bit in CR (CR.TCLR). Note that this can cause a glitch to the output PWM waveforms in use. 25.6.3 Spread Spectrum Counter The spread spectrum counter allows the generation of constantly varying duty cycles on the output PWM waveforms. This is achieved by varying the effective top value of the timebase counter in a range defined by the spread spectrum counter value. When CR.SPREAD is not zero, the spread spectrum counter is enabled. Its range is defined by CR.SPREAD. It starts to count from -CR.SPREAD when the PWMA is enabled or after reset and counts upwards. When it reaches CR.SPREAD, it restarts to count from -CR.SPREAD again. The spread spectrum counter will cause the effective top value to vary from TOPSPREAD to TOP+SPREAD. Figure 25-2 on page 618 illustrates this. This leads to a constantly varying duty cycle on the PWM output waveforms though the duty cycle values stored are unchanged. Figure 25-2. PWMA Adjusting Top Value for Timebase Counter 25.6.3.1 Special considerations The maximum value of the timebase counter is 0x0FFF. If SPREAD is written to a value that will cause the ETV to exceed this value, the spread spectrum counter’s range will be limited to prevent the timebase counter to exceed its maximum value. If SPREAD is written to a value causing (TOP-SPREAD) to be below zero, the spread spectrum counter’s range will be limited to prevent the timebase counter to count below zero. In both cases, the SPREAD value read from the Control Register will be the same value as written to the SPREAD field. TPWMA   ETV + 1 TGCLK =  0x0 0x0FFF Duty Cycle -SPREAD SPREAD TOP Adjusting top value range for the timerbase counter 619 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U When writing a one to CR.TCLR, the timebase counter and the spread spectrum counter are reset at their lower limit values and the effective top value of the timebase counter will also be reset. 25.6.4 Duty Cycle and Waveform Properties Each PWM channel has its own duty cycle value (DCV) which is write-only and cannot be read out. The duty cycle value can be changed in two approaches as described in Section25.6.6. When the duty cycle value is zero, the PWM output is zero. Otherwise, the PWM output is set when the timebase counter is zero, and cleared when the timebase counter reaches the duty cycle value. This is summarized as: Note that when increasing the duty cycle value for one channel from 0 to 1, the number of GCLK cycles when the PWM waveform is high will jump from 0 to 2. When incrementing the duty cycle value by one for any other values, the number of GCLK cycle when the waveform is high will increase by one. This is summarized in Table 25-2. 25.6.5 Waveform Output PWMA waveforms are output to I/O lines. The output waveform properties are controlled by Composite Waveform Generation (CWG) register(s). If this register is cleared (by default), the channel waveforms are out directly to the I/O lines. To avoid too many I/O toggling simultaneously on the output I/O lines, every other output PWM waveform toggles on the negative edge of the GCLK instead of the positive edge. In CWG mode, all channels are paired and their outputs are XOR’ed together if the corresponding bit of CWG register is set. The even number of output is the XOR’ed output and the odd number of output is the inverse of its. Each bit of CWG register controls one pair channels and the least significant bit refers to the lowest number of pair channels. 25.6.6 Updating Duty Cycle Values 25.6.6.1 Interlinked Single Value PWM Operation The PWM channels can be interlinked to allow multiple channels to be updated simultaneously with the same duty cycle value. This value must be written to the Interlinked Single Value Duty Table 25-2. PMW Waveform Duty Cycles Duty Cycle Value #Clock Cycles When Waveform is High #Clock Cycles When Waveform is Low 0 0 ETV+1 1 2 ETV-1 2 3 ETV-2 ... ... ... ETV-1 ETV 1 ETV ETV+1 0 PWM Waveform = low when DCV = 0 or TC DCV  high when TC DCV  and DCV  0   620 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U (ISDUTY) register. Each channel has a corresponding enabling bit in the Interlinked Single Value Channel Set (ISCHSET) register(s). When a bit is written to one in the ISCHSET register, the duty cycle register for the corresponding channel will be updated with the value stored in the ISDUTY register. It can only be updated when the READY bit in the Status Register (SR.READY) is one, indicating that the PWMA is ready for writing. Figure 25-3 on page 620 shows the writing procedure. It is thus possible to update the duty cycle values for up to 32 PWM channels within one ISCHSET register at a time. Figure 25-3. Interlinked Single Value PWM Operation Flow 25.6.6.2 Interlinked Multiple Value PWM Operation The interlinked multiple value PWM operation allows up to four channels to be updated simultaneously with different duty cycle values. The four duty cycle values are required to be written to the four registers, DUTY3, DUTY2, DUTY1 and DUTY0 , respectively. The index number of the four channels to be updated is written to the four SEL fields in the Interlinked Multiple Value Channel Select (IMCHSEL) register (IMCHSEL.SEL). When the IMCHSEL register is written, the values stored in the DUTY0/1/2/3 registers are synchronized to the duty cycle registers for the channels selected by the SEL fields. Figure 25-4 on page 620 shows the writing procedure. Note that only writes to the implemented channels will be effective. If one of the IMCHSEL.SEL fields points to a non-existing channel, the corresponding value in the DUTYx register will not be written. If the same channel is specified multiple times in the IMCHSEL.SEL fields, the channel will be updated with the value referred by the upper IMCHSEL.SEL field. When only the least significant 8-bits duty cycle value are considered for updating, the four duty cycle values can be written to the IMDUTY register once. This is equivalent to writing the four duty cycle values to the four DUTY registers one by one. Figure 25-4. Interlinked Multiple Value PWM Operation Flow ISCHSETm ...

MUX Channel1 DUTY Channel0 DUTY 621 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 25.6.7 Open Drain Mode Some pins can be used in open drain mode, allowing the PWMA waveform to toggle between 0V and up to 5V on these pins. In this mode the PWMA will drive the pin to zero or leave the output open. An external pullup can be used to pull the pin up to the desired voltage. To enable open drain mode on a pin the PWMAOD function must be selected instead of the PWMA function in the I/O Controller. Please refer to the Module Configuration chapter for information about which pins are available in open drain mode. 25.6.8 Synchronization Both the timebase counter and the spread spectrum counter can be reset and the duty cycle registers can be written through the user interface of the module. This requires a synchronization between the PB and GCLK clock domains, which takes a few clock cycles of each clock domain. The BUSY bit in SR indicates when the synchronization is ongoing. Writing to the module while the BUSY bit is set will result in discarding the new value. Note that the duty cycle registers will not be updated with the new values until the timebase counter reaches its top value, in order to avoid glitches. The BUSY bit in SR will always be set during this updating and synchronization period. 25.6.9 Interrupts When the timebase counter overflows, the Timebase Overflow bit in the Status Register (SR.TOFL) is set. If the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR) is set, an interrupt request will be generated. Since the user needs to wait until the user interface is available between each write due to synchronization, a READY bit is provided in SR, which can be used to generate an interrupt request. The interrupt request will be generated if the corresponding bit in IMR is set. Bits in IMR are set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER), and cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Disable Register (IDR). The interrupt request remains active until the corresponding bit in SR is cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Status Clear Register (SCR). 25.6.10 Peripheral Events 25.6.10.1 Input Peripheral Events The pre-defined channels support input peripheral events from the Peripheral Event System. Input peripheral events must be enabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Channel Event Enable Registers (CHEERs) before peripheral events can be used to control the duty cycle value. Each bit in the register corresponds to one channel, where bit 0 corresponds to channel 0 and so on. Both the increase and decrease events are enabled for the corresponding channel when a bit in the CHEER register is set. An increase or decrease event (event_incr/event_decr) can either increase or decrease the duty cycle value by one in a PWM period. The events are taken into account when the common timebase counter reaches its top. The behavior is defined by the Channel Event Response Register (CHERR). Each bit in the register corresponds to one channel, where bit 0 corresponds to channel 0 and so on. If the bit in CHERR is set to 0 (default) for a channel, the increase event will increase the duty cycle value and the decrease event will decrease the duty cycle value for that channel. If the bit is set to 1, the increase and decrease event will have reverse function so that 622 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U the increase event will decrease the duty cycle value and decrease event will increase the duty cycle value. If both the increase event and the decrease event occur at the same time for a channel, the duty cycle value will not be changed. The number of channels supporting input peripheral events is device specific. Please refer to the Module Configuration section at the end of this chapter for details. 25.6.10.2 Output Peripheral Event The PWMA also supports one output peripheral event (event_ch0) to the Peripheral Event System. This output peripheral event is connected to channel 0 and will be asserted when the timebase counter reaches the duty cycle value for channel 0. This output event is always enabled. 623 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 25.7 User Interface Note: 1. The reset values are device specific.

When the TVR.TOP field is written, this CR.TOP field will also be updated with only the least significant 8 bits of TVR.TOP field. • TCLR: Timebase Clear Writing a zero to this bit has no effect.

Which channel is selected for updating is defined by the corresponding SEL field in the IMCHSEL register. To write mulitple channels at a time with more than 8 bits of the duty cycle value, refer to DUTY3/2/1/0 registers. If the value zero is written to DUTY all affected channels will be disabled. In this state the output waveform will be zero all the time. 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 DUTY3 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 DUTY2 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 DUTY1 76543210 DUTY0 627 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 25.7.4 Interlinked Multiple Value Channel Select Name: IMCHSEL Access Type: Write-only Offset: 0x0C Reset Value: 0x00000000 • SELn: Channel Select The duty cycle of the PWMA channel SELn will be updated with the value stored in the DUTYn register when IMCHSEL is written. If SELn points to a non-implemented channel, the write will be discarded. Note: The duty registers will be updated with the value stored in the DUTY3, DUTY2, DUTY1 and DUTY0 registers when the IMCHSEL register is written. Synchronization takes place immediately when an IMCHSEL register is written. The duty cycle registers will, however, not be updated until the synchronization is completed and the timebase counter reaches its top value in order to avoid glitches. When only 8 bits duty cycle value are considered for updating, the four duty cycle values can be written to the IMDUTY register once. This is equivalent to writing the 8 bits four duty cycle values to the four DUTY registers one by one while the upper 4 bits remain unchanged. 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 SEL3 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 SEL2 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 SEL1 76543210 SEL0 628 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 25.7.5 Interrupt Enable Register Name: IER Access Type: Write-only Offset: 0x10 Reset Value: 0x00000000 Writing a zero to a bit in this register has no effect Writing a one to a bit in this register will set the corresponding bit in IMR. 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 -------- 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 -------- 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 -------- 76543210 - - - - - READY - TOFL 629 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 25.7.6 Interrupt Disable Register Name: IDR Access Type: Write-only Offset: 0x14 Reset Value: 0x00000000 Writing a zero to a bit in this register has no effect Writing a one to a bit in this register will clear the corresponding bit in IMR. 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 -------- 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 -------- 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 -------- 76543210 - - - - - READY - TOFL 630 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 25.7.7 Interrupt Mask Register Name: IMR Access Type: Read-only Offset: 0x18 Reset Value: 0x00000000 0: The corresponding interrupt is disabled. 1: The corresponding interrupt is enabled.

If more than one ISCHSET register is present, ISCHSET0 controls channels 31 to 0 and ISCHSET1 controls channels 63 to 32. Note: The duty registers will be updated with the value stored in the ISDUTY register when any ISCHSETm register is written. Synchronization takes place immediately when an ISCHSET register is written. The duty cycle registers will, however, not be updated until the synchronization is completed and the timebase counter reaches its top value in order to avoid glitches. 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 SET 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 SET 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 SET 76543210 SET 637 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 25.7.14 Channel Event Response Register Name: CHERRm Access Type: Read/Write Offset: 0x34+m*0x10 Reset Value: 0x00000000 • CHER: Channel Event Response 0: The increase event will increase the duty cycle value by one in a PWM period for the corresponding channel and the decrease event will decrease the duty cycle value by one. 1: The increase event will decrease the duty cycle value by one in a PWM period for the corresponding channel and the decrease event will increase the duty cycle value by one.

For example, if bit 0 in XOR is one, the pair of PWMA output waveforms for channel 0 and 1 will be XORed together. If bit n in XOR is zero, normal waveforms are output for that pair. Note that If more than one CWG register is present, CWG0 controls the first 32 pairs, corresponding to channels 63 downto 0, and CWG1 controls the second 32 pairs, corresponding to channels 127 downto 64. 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 XOR 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 XOR 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 XOR 76543210 XOR 640 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 25.7.17 Interlinked Multiple Value Duty0/1/2/3 Register Name: DUTY0/1/2/3 Access Type: Write-only Offset: 0x80-0x8C Reset Value: 0x00000000 These registers allows up to 4 channels to be updated with a common 12-bits duty cycle value at a time.

Timer/Counter (TC) Rev: 2.2.3.1.3 26.1 Features • Three 16-bit Timer Counter channels • A wide range of functions including: – Frequency measurement – Event counting – Interval measurement – Pulse generation – Delay timing – Pulse width modulation – Up/down capabilities • Each channel is user-configurable and contains: – Three external clock inputs – Five internal clock inputs – Two multi-purpose input/output signals • Internal interrupt signal • Two global registers that act on all three TC channels • Peripheral event input on all A lines in capture mode 26.2 Overview The Timer Counter (TC) includes three identical 16-bit Timer Counter channels. Each channel can be independently programmed to perform a wide range of functions including frequency measurement, event counting, interval measurement, pulse generation, delay timing, and pulse width modulation. Each channel has three external clock inputs, five internal clock inputs, and two multi-purpose input/output signals which can be configured by the user. Each channel drives an internal interrupt signal which can be programmed to generate processor interrupts. The TC block has two global registers which act upon all three TC channels. The Block Control Register (BCR) allows the three channels to be started simultaneously with the same instruction. The Block Mode Register (BMR) defines the external clock inputs for each channel, allowing them to be chained. 643 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 26.3 Block Diagram Figure 26-1. TC Block Diagram 26.4 I/O Lines Description 26.5 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 26.5.1 I/O Lines The pins used for interfacing the compliant external devices may be multiplexed with I/O lines. The user must first program the I/O Controller to assign the TC pins to their peripheral functions. I/O Controller TC2XC2S INT0 INT1 INT2 TIOA0 TIOA1 TIOA2 TIOB0 TIOB1 TIOB2 XC2 TCLK0 TCLK1 TCLK2 TCLK0 TCLK1 TCLK2 TCLK0 TCLK1 TCLK2 TIOA1 TIOA2 TIOA0 TIOA2 TIOA1 Interrupt Controller CLK0 CLK1 CLK2 A0 B0 A1 B1 A2 B2 Timer Count er TIOB TIOA TIOB SYNC TIMER_CLOCK1 TIOA SYNC SYNC TIOA TIOB TIMER_CLOCK2 TIMER_CLOCK3 TIMER_CLOCK4 TIMER_CLOCK5 XC1 XC0 XC0 XC2 XC1 XC0 XC1 XC2 Timer/Counter Channel 2 Timer/Counter Channel 1 Timer/Counter Channel 0 TC1XC1S TC0XC0S TIOA0 Table 26-1.

Refer to the Peripheral Event System chapter for details. 26.5.2 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the TC, the TC will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. 26.5.3 Clocks The clock for the TC bus interface (CLK_TC) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the TC before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the TC in an undefined state. 26.5.4 Interrupts The TC interrupt request line is connected to the interrupt controller. Using the TC interrupt requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 26.5.5 Peripheral Events The TC peripheral events are connected via the Peripheral Event System. Refer to the Peripheral Event System chapter for details. 26.5.6 Debug Operation The Timer Counter clocks are frozen during debug operation, unless the OCD system keeps peripherals running in debug operation. 26.6 Functional Description 26.6.1 TC Description The three channels of the Timer Counter are independent and identical in operation. The registers for channel programming are listed in Figure 26-3 on page 659. 26.6.1.1 Channel I/O Signals As described in Figure 26-1 on page 643, each Channel has the following I/O signals. 26.6.1.2 16-bit counter Each channel is organized around a 16-bit counter. The value of the counter is incremented at each positive edge of the selected clock. When the counter has reached the value 0xFFFF and passes to 0x0000, an overflow occurs and the Counter Overflow Status bit in the Channel n Status Register (SRn.COVFS) is set. Table 26-2. Channel I/O Signals Description Block/Channel Signal Name Description Channel Signal XC0, XC1, XC2 External Clock Inputs TIOA Capture mode: Timer Counter Input Waveform mode: Timer Counter Output TIOB Capture mode: Timer Counter Input Waveform mode: Timer Counter Input/Output INT Interrupt Signal Output SYNC Synchronization Input Signal 645 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The current value of the counter is accessible in real time by reading the Channel n Counter Value Register (CVn). The counter can be reset by a trigger. In this case, the counter value passes to 0x0000 on the next valid edge of the selected clock. 26.6.1.3 Clock selection At block level, input clock signals of each channel can either be connected to the external inputs TCLK0, TCLK1 or TCLK2, or be connected to the configurable I/O signals A0, A1 or A2 for chaining by writing to the BMR register. See Figure 26-2 on page 645. Each channel can independently select an internal or external clock source for its counter: • Internal clock signals: TIMER_CLOCK1, TIMER_CLOCK2, TIMER_CLOCK3, TIMER_CLOCK4, TIMER_CLOCK5. See the Module Configuration Chapter for details about the connection of these clock sources. • External clock signals: XC0, XC1 or XC2. See the Module Configuration Chapter for details about the connection of these clock sources. This selection is made by the Clock Selection field in the Channel n Mode Register (CMRn.TCCLKS). The selected clock can be inverted with the Clock Invert bit in CMRn (CMRn.CLKI). This allows counting on the opposite edges of the clock. The burst function allows the clock to be validated when an external signal is high. The Burst Signal Selection field in the CMRn register (CMRn.BURST) defines this signal. Note: In all cases, if an external clock is used, the duration of each of its levels must be longer than the CLK_TC period. The external clock frequency must be at least 2.5 times lower than the CLK_TC. Figure 26-2. Clock Selection TIMER_CLOCK5 XC2 TCCLKS CLKI BURST 1 Selected Clock XC1 XC0 TIMER_CLOCK4 TIMER_CLOCK3 TIMER_CLOCK2 TIMER_CLOCK1 646 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 26.6.1.4 Clock control The clock of each counter can be controlled in two different ways: it can be enabled/disabled and started/stopped. See Figure 26-3 on page 646. • The clock can be enabled or disabled by the user by writing to the Counter Clock Enable/Disable Command bits in the Channel n Clock Control Register (CCRn.CLKEN and CCRn.CLKDIS). In Capture mode it can be disabled by an RB load event if the Counter Clock Disable with RB Loading bit in CMRn is written to one (CMRn.LDBDIS). In Waveform mode, it can be disabled by an RC Compare event if the Counter Clock Disable with RC Compare bit in CMRn is written to one (CMRn.CPCDIS). When disabled, the start or the stop actions have no effect: only a CLKEN command in CCRn can re-enable the clock. When the clock is enabled, the Clock Enabling Status bit is set in SRn (SRn.CLKSTA). • The clock can also be started or stopped: a trigger (software, synchro, external or compare) always starts the clock. In Capture mode the clock can be stopped by an RB load event if the Counter Clock Stopped with RB Loading bit in CMRn is written to one (CMRn.LDBSTOP). In Waveform mode it can be stopped by an RC compare event if the Counter Clock Stopped with RC Compare bit in CMRn is written to one (CMRn.CPCSTOP). The start and the stop commands have effect only if the clock is enabled. Figure 26-3. Clock Control 26.6.1.5 TC operating modes Each channel can independently operate in two different modes: • Capture mode provides measurement on signals. • Waveform mode provides wave generation. The TC operating mode selection is done by writing to the Wave bit in the CCRn register (CCRn.WAVE). In Capture mode, TIOA and TIOB are configured as inputs. Q S R S R Q CLKSTA CLKEN CLKDIS Stop Event Disable Counter Clock Selected Clock Trigger Event 647 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U In Waveform mode, TIOA is always configured to be an output and TIOB is an output if it is not selected to be the external trigger. 26.6.1.6 Trigger A trigger resets the counter and starts the counter clock. Three types of triggers are common to both modes, and a fourth external trigger is available to each mode. The following triggers are common to both modes: • Software Trigger: each channel has a software trigger, available by writing a one to the Software Trigger Command bit in CCRn (CCRn.SWTRG). • SYNC: each channel has a synchronization signal SYNC. When asserted, this signal has the same effect as a software trigger. The SYNC signals of all channels are asserted simultaneously by writing a one to the Synchro Command bit in the BCR register (BCR.SYNC). • Compare RC Trigger: RC is implemented in each channel and can provide a trigger when the counter value matches the RC value if the RC Compare Trigger Enable bit in CMRn (CMRn.CPCTRG) is written to one. The channel can also be configured to have an external trigger. In Capture mode, the external trigger signal can be selected between TIOA and TIOB. In Waveform mode, an external event can be programmed to be one of the following signals: TIOB, XC0, XC1, or XC2. This external event can then be programmed to perform a trigger by writing a one to the External Event Trigger Enable bit in CMRn (CMRn.ENETRG). If an external trigger is used, the duration of the pulses must be longer than the CLK_TC period in order to be detected. Regardless of the trigger used, it will be taken into account at the following active edge of the selected clock. This means that the counter value can be read differently from zero just after a trigger, especially when a low frequency signal is selected as the clock. 26.6.1.7 Peripheral events on TIOA inputs The TIOA input lines are ored internally with peripheral events from the Peripheral Event System. To capture using events the user must ensure that the corresponding pin functions for the TIOA line are disabled. When capturing on the external TIOA pin the user must ensure that no peripheral events are generated on this pin. 26.6.2 Capture Operating Mode This mode is entered by writing a zero to the CMRn.WAVE bit. Capture mode allows the TC channel to perform measurements such as pulse timing, frequency, period, duty cycle and phase on TIOA and TIOB signals which are considered as inputs. Figure 26-4 on page 649 shows the configuration of the TC channel when programmed in Capture mode. 26.6.2.1 Capture registers A and B Registers A and B (RA and RB) are used as capture registers. This means that they can be loaded with the counter value when a programmable event occurs on the signal TIOA. 648 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The RA Loading Selection field in CMRn (CMRn.LDRA) defines the TIOA edge for the loading of the RA register, and the RB Loading Selection field in CMRn (CMRn.LDRB) defines the TIOA edge for the loading of the RB register. RA is loaded only if it has not been loaded since the last trigger or if RB has been loaded since the last loading of RA. RB is loaded only if RA has been loaded since the last trigger or the last loading of RB. Loading RA or RB before the read of the last value loaded sets the Load Overrun Status bit in SRn (SRn.LOVRS). In this case, the old value is overwritten. 26.6.2.2 Trigger conditions In addition to the SYNC signal, the software trigger and the RC compare trigger, an external trigger can be defined. The TIOA or TIOB External Trigger Selection bit in CMRn (CMRn.ABETRG) selects TIOA or TIOB input signal as an external trigger. The External Trigger Edge Selection bit in CMRn (CMRn.ETREDG) defines the edge (rising, falling or both) detected to generate an external trigger. If CMRn.ETRGEDG is zero (none), the external trigger is disabled. 649 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 26-4.

In Waveform operating mode the TC channel generates one or two PWM signals with the same frequency and independently programmable duty cycles, or generates different types of oneshot or repetitive pulses. In this mode, TIOA is configured as an output and TIOB is defined as an output if it is not used as an external event. Figure 26-5 on page 651 shows the configuration of the TC channel when programmed in Waveform operating mode. 26.6.3.1 Waveform selection Depending on the Waveform Selection field in CMRn (CMRn.WAVSEL), the behavior of CVn varies. With any selection, RA, RB and RC can all be used as compare registers. RA Compare is used to control the TIOA output, RB Compare is used to control the TIOB output (if correctly configured) and RC Compare is used to control TIOA and/or TIOB outputs. 651 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 26-5.

Once 0xFFFF has been reached, the value of CVn is reset. Incrementation of CVn starts again and the cycle continues. See Figure 26-6 on page 652. An external event trigger or a software trigger can reset the value of CVn. It is important to note that the trigger may occur at any time. See Figure 26-7 on page 653. RC Compare cannot be programmed to generate a trigger in this configuration. At the same time, RC Compare can stop the counter clock (CMRn.CPCSTOP = 1) and/or disable the counter clock (CMRn.CPCDIS = 1). Figure 26-6.

Once the value of CVn has been reset, it is then incremented and so on. See Figure 26-8 on page 654. It is important to note that CVn can be reset at any time by an external event or a software trigger if both are programmed correctly. See Figure 26-9 on page 654.

If a trigger occurs while CVn is incrementing, CVn then decrements. If a trigger is received while CVn is decrementing, CVn then increments. See Figure 26-11 on page 655. RC Compare cannot be programmed to generate a trigger in this configuration. At the same time, RC Compare can stop the counter clock (CMRn.CPCSTOP = 1) and/or disable the counter clock (CMRn.CPCDIS = 1). Figure 26-10. WAVSEL = 1 Without Trigger Figure 26-11.

Once RC is reached, the value of CVn is decremented to zero, then re-incremented to RC and so on. See Figure 26-12 on page 656. A trigger such as an external event or a software trigger can modify CVn at any time. If a trigger occurs while CVn is incrementing, CVn then decrements. If a trigger is received while CVn is decrementing, CVn then increments. See Figure 26-13 on page 657. RC Compare can stop the counter clock (CMRn.CPCSTOP = 1) and/or disable the counter clock (CMRn.CPCDIS = 1). Figure 26-12.

WAVSEL = 3 With Trigger 26.6.3.6 External event/trigger conditions An external event can be programmed to be detected on one of the clock sources (XC0, XC1, XC2) or TIOB. The external event selected can then be used as a trigger. The External Event Selection field in CMRn (CMRn.EEVT) selects the external trigger. The External Event Edge Selection field in CMRn (CMRn.EEVTEDG) defines the trigger edge for each of the possible external triggers (rising, falling or both). If CMRn.EEVTEDG is written to zero, no external event is defined. If TIOB is defined as an external event signal (CMRn.EEVT = 0), TIOB is no longer used as an output and the compare register B is not used to generate waveforms and subsequently no IRQs. In this case the TC channel can only generate a waveform on TIOA. When an external event is defined, it can be used as a trigger by writing a one to the CMRn.ENETRG bit. As in Capture mode, the SYNC signal and the software trigger are also available as triggers. RC Compare can also be used as a trigger depending on the CMRn.WAVSEL field. 26.6.3.7 Output controller The output controller defines the output level changes on TIOA and TIOB following an event. TIOB control is used only if TIOB is defined as output (not as an external event).

Peripheral Event System Rev: 1.0.0.1 27.1 Features • Direct peripheral to peripheral communication system • Allows peripherals to receive, react to, and send peripheral events without CPU intervention • Cycle deterministic event communication • Asynchronous interrupts allow advanced peripheral operation in low power sleep modes 27.2 Overview Several peripheral modules can be configured to emit or respond to signals known as peripheral events. The exact condition to trigger a peripheral event, or the action taken upon receiving a peripheral event, is specific to each module. Peripherals that respond to peripheral events are called peripheral event users and peripherals that emit peripheral events are called peripheral event generators. A single module can be both a peripheral event generator and user. The peripheral event generators and users are interconnected by a network known as the Peripheral Event System. This allows low latency peripheral-to-peripheral signaling without CPU intervention, and without consuming system resources such as bus or RAM bandwidth. This offloads the CPU and system resources compared to a traditional interrupt-based software driven system. 27.3 Peripheral Event System Block Diagram Figure 27-1. Peripheral Event System Block Diagram 27.4 Functional Description 27.4.1 Configuration The Peripheral Event System in the ATUC64/128/256L3/4U has a fixed mapping of peripheral events between generators and users, as described in Table 27-1 to Table 27-4. Thus, the user does not need to configure the interconnection between the modules, although each peripheral event can be enabled or disabled at the generator or user side as described in the peripheral chapter for each module.

If a peripheral event is connected to multiple users, the peripheral event can trigger actions in multiple modules. A peripheral event user can likewise be connected to one or more peripheral event generators. If a peripheral event user is connected to multiple generators, the peripheral events are OR’ed together to a single peripheral event. This means that peripheral events from either one of the generators will result in a peripheral event to the user. To configure a peripheral event, the peripheral event must be enabled at both the generator and user side. Even if a generator is connected to multiple users, only the users with the peripheral event enabled will trigger on the peripheral event. 27.4.3 Low Power Operation As the peripheral events do not require CPU intervention, they are available in Idle mode. They are also available in deeper sleep modes if both the generator and user remain clocked in that mode. Certain events are known as asynchronous peripheral events, as identified in Table 27-1 to Table 27-4. These can be issued even when the system clock is stopped, and revive unclocked user peripherals. The clock will be restarted for this module only, without waking the system from sleep mode. The clock remains active only as long as required by the triggered function, before being switched off again, and the system remains in the original sleep mode. The CPU and sysTable 27-3.

This concept is known as SleepWalking and is described in further detail in the Power Manager chapter. Note that asynchronous peripheral events may be associated with a delay due to the need to restart the system clock source if this has been stopped in the sleep mode. 27.5 Application Example This application example shows how the Peripheral Event System can be used to program the ADC Interface to perform ADC conversions at selected intervals. Conversions of the active analog channels are started with a software or a hardware trigger. One of the possible hardware triggers is a peripheral event trigger, allowing the Peripheral Event System to synchronize conversion with some configured peripheral event source. From Table 27-3 and Table 27-4, it can be read that this peripheral event source can be either an AST peripheral event, or an event from the PWM Controller. The AST can generate periodic peripheral events at selected intervals, among other types of peripheral events. The Peripheral Event System can then be used to set up the ADC Interface to sample an analog signal at regular intervals. The user must enable peripheral events in the AST and in the ADC Interface to accomplish this. The periodic peripheral event in the AST is enabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the AST Event Enable Register (EVE). To select the peripheral event trigger for the ADC Interface, the user must write the value 0x7 to the Trigger Mode (TRGMOD) field in the ADC Interface Trigger Register (TRGR). When the peripheral events are enabled, the AST will generate peripheral events at the selected intervals, and the Peripheral Event System will route the peripheral events to the ADC Interface, which will perform ADC conversions at the selected intervals. Figure 27-2. Application Example Since the AST peripheral event is asynchronous, the description above will also work in sleep modes where the ADC clock is stopped. In this case, the ADC clock (and clock source, if needed) will be restarted during the ADC conversion. After the conversion, the ADC clock and clock source will return to the sleep state, unless the ADC generates an interrupt, which in turn will wake up the system. Using asynchronous interrupts thus allows ADC operation in much lower power states than would otherwise be possible.

Two channels are supported making the Audio Bitstream DAC particularly suitable for stereo audio. Each channel has a pair of complementary digital outputs, DAC and DACN, which can be connected to an external high input impedance amplifier. The Audio Bitstream DAC is made up of several signal processing blocks and a 3rd order Sigma Delta D/A converter for each channel. The Sigma Delta modulator converts the parallel data to a bitstream, while the signal processing blocks perform volume control, offset control, upsampling, and filtering to compensate for the upsampling process. The upsampling is performed by a Cascaded Integrator-Comb (CIC) filter, and the compensation filter is a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) CIC compensation filter. 28.3 Block Diagram Figure 28-1.

Before using the Audio Bitstream DAC, the I/O Controller must be configured in order for the Audio Bitstream DAC I/O lines to be in Audio Bitstream DAC peripheral mode. 28.5.2 Clocks The clock for the ABDACB bus interface (CLK_ABDACB) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is turned on by default, and can be enabled and disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the ABDACB before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the ABDACB in an undefined state. Before using the Audio Bitstream DAC, the user must ensure that the Audio Bitstream DAC clock is enabled in the Power Manager. The Audio Bitstream DAC requires a separate clock for the D/A conversion. This clock is provided by a generic clock which has to be set up in the System Control Interface (SCIF). The frequency for this clock has to be set as described in Table 28-3 on page 697. It is important that this clock is accurate and has low jitter. Incorrect frequency will result in too fast or too slow playback (frequency shift), and too high jitter will add noise to the D/A conversion. For best performance one should trade frequency accuracy (within some limits) for low jitter to obtain the best performance as jitter will have large impact on the quality of the converted signal. 28.5.3 DMA The ABDACB is connected to the Peripheral DMA controller. Using DMA to transfer data samples requires the Peripheral DMA controller to be programmed before enabling the ABDACB. 28.5.4 Interrupts The ABDACB interrupt request line is connected to the interrupt controller. Using the ABDACB interrupt requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. Table 28-1.

See Figure 28-1 on page 687. The user interface is used to configure the signal processing blocks and to input new data samples to the converter.The signal processing blocks manages volume control, offset control, and upsampling. The Sigma Delta blocks converts the parallel data to1-bit bitstreams. 28.6.1.1 CIC Interpolation Filter The interpolation filter in the system is a Cascaded Integrator-Comb (CIC) interpolation filter which interpolates from Fs to {125, 128, 136}xFs depending on the control settings. This filter is a 4th order CIC filter, and the basic building blocks of the filter is a comb part and an integrator part. Since the CIC interpolator has a sinc-function frequency response it is compensated by a linear phase CIC compensation filter to make the passband response more flat in the range 0- 20kHz, see figure Figure 28-4 on page 693. The frequency response of this type of interpolator has the first zero at the input sampling frequency. This means that the first repeated specters created by the upsampling process will not be fully rejected and the output signal will contain signals from these repeated specters. See Figure 28-6 on page 694. Since the human ear can not hear frequencies above 20kHz, we should not be affected by this when the sample rate is above 40kHz, but digital measurement equipment will be affected. This need to be accounted for when doing measurements on the system to prevent aliasing and incorrect measurement results. 28.6.1.2 Sigma Delta Modulator The Sigma Delta modulator is a 3rd order modulator consisting of three differentiators (delta blocks), three integrators (sigma blocks), and a one bit quantizer. The purpose of the integrators is to shape the noise, so that the noise is reduced in the audio passband and increased at the higher frequencies, where it can be filtered out by an analog low-pass filter. To be able to filter out all the noise at high frequencies the analog low-pass filter must be one order larger than the Sigma Delta modulator. 28.6.1.3 Recreating the Analog Signal Since the DAC and DACN outputs from the ABDAC are digital square wave signals, they have to be passed through a low pass filter to recreate the analog signal. This also means that noise on the IO voltage will couple through to the analog signal. To remove some of the IO noise the ABDAC can output a clock signal, CLK, which can be used to resample the DAC and DACN signals on external Flip-Flops powered by a clean supply. 28.6.2 Initialization Before enabling the ABDACB the correct configuration must be applied to the Control Register (CR). Configuring the Alternative Upsampling Ratio bit (CR.ALTUPR), Common Mode Offset Control bit (CR.CMOC), and the Sampling Frequency field (CR.FS) according to the sampling rate of the data that is converted and the type of amplifier the outputs are connected to is required to get the correct behavior of the system. When the correct configuration is applied the ABDACB can be enabled by writing a one to the Enable bit in the Control Register (CR.EN). The module is disabled by writing a zero to the Enable bit. The module should be disabled before entering sleep modes to ensure that the outputs are not left in an undesired state. 690 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 28.6.3 Basic operation To convert audio data to a digital bitstream the user must first initialize the ABDACB as described in Section 28.6.2. When the ABDACB is initialized and enabled it will indicate that it is ready to receive new data by setting the Transmit Ready bit in the Status Register (SR.TXRDY). When the TXRDY bit is set in the Status Register the user has to write new samples to Sample Data Register 0 (SDR0) and Sample Data Register 1 (SDR1). If the Mono Mode (MONO) bit in the Control Register (CR) is set, or one of the compact stereo formats are used by configuring the Data Word Format (DATAFORMAT) in the Control Register, only SDR0 has to be written. Failing to write to the sample data registers will result in an underrun indicated by the Transmit Underrun (TXUR) bit in the Status Register (SR.TXUR). When new samples are written to the sample data registers the TXRDY bit will be cleared. To increase performance of the system an interrupt handler or DMA transfer can be used to write new samples to the sample data registers. See Section 28.6.10 for details on DMA, and Section 28.6.11 for details on interrupt. 28.6.4 Data Format The input data type is two’s complement. The Audio Bitstream DAC can be configured to accept different audio formats. The format must be configured in the Data Word Format field in the Control Register. In regular operation data for the two channels are written to the sample data registers SDR0 and SDR1. If the data format field specifies a format using less than 32 bits, data must be written right-justified in SDR0 and SDR1. Sign extension into the unused bits is not necessary. Only the 16 most significant bits in the data will be used by the ABDACB. For data formats larger than 16 bits the least significant bits are ignored. For 8-bit data formats the 8 bits will be used as the most significant bits in the 16-bit samples, the additional bits will be zeros. The ABDACB also supports compact data formats for 16- and 8-bit samples. For 16-bit samples the sample for channel 0 must be written to bits 15 through 0 and the sample for channel 1 must be written to bits 31 through 16 in SDR0. For 8-bit samples the sample for channel 0 must be written to bits 7 through 0 and the sample for channel 1 must be written to bits 15 through 8 in SDR0. SDR1 is not used in this mode. See Table 28-5 on page 699. 28.6.5 Data Swapping When the Swap Channels (SWAP) bit in the Control Register (CR.SWAP) is one, writing to the Sample Data Register 0 (SDR0) will put the data in Sample Data Register 1 (SDR1). Writing SDR1 will put the data in SDR0. If one of the two compact stereo formats is used the lower and upper halfword of SDR0 will be swapped when writing to SDR0. 28.6.6 Common Mode Offset Control When the Common Mode Offset Control (CMOC) bit in the Control Register is one the input data will get a DC value applied to it and the amplitude will be scaled. This will make the common mode offset of the two corresponding outputs, DAC and DACN, to move away from each other so that the output signals are not overlapping. The result is that the two signals can be applied to a differential analog filter, and the difference will always be a positive value, removing the need for a negative voltage supply for the filter. The cost of doing this a 3dB loss in dynamic range. On the left side of Figure 28-2 one can see the filtered output from the DAC and DACN pins when a sine wave is played when CR.CMOC is zero. The waveform on the right side shows the output of the differential filter when the two outputs on the left side are used as inputs to the differential filter. Figure 28-3 show the corresponding outputs when CR.CMOC is one. 691 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 28-2. Output signals with CMOC=0 Figure 28-3. Output signals with CMOC=1 28.6.7 Volume Control The Audio Bitstream DAC have two volume control registers, Volume Control Register 0 (VCR0) and Volume Control Register 1 (VCR1), that can be used to adjust the volume for the corresponding channel. The volume control is linear and will only scale each sample according to the value in the Volume Control (VOLUME) field in the volume control registers. The register also has a Mute bit (MUTE) which can be used to mute the corresponding channel. The filtered out- 692 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U put of the DAC pins will have a voltage given by the following equation, given that it is configured to run at the default upsampling ratio of 128: If one want to get coherence between the sign of the input data and the output voltage one can use the DATAN outputs or invert the sign of the input data by software. 28.6.8 Mono When the Mono bit (MONO) in the Control Register is set, data written to SDR0 will be used for both output channels. If one of the compact stereo formats are used only the data written to the part of SDR0 that corresponds with channel 0 is used. 28.6.9 Alternative Upsampling Ratio The digital filters and Sigma Delta modulators requires its own clock to perform the conversion at the correct speed, and this clock is provided by a generic clock in the SCIF. The frequency of this clock depends on the input sample rate and the upsampling ratio which is controlled by the Alternative Upsampling Ratio bit (ALTUPR) in the Control Register. The ABDACB supports three upsampling ratios, 125, 128, and 136. The default setting is a ratio of 128, and is used when CR.ALTUPR is zero. Using this ratio gives a clock frequency requirement that is common for audio products. In some cases one may want to use other clock frequencies that already are available in the system. By writing a one to CR.ALTUPR a upsampling ratio of 125 or 136 is used depending on the configuration of the Sampling Frequency field in the Control Register. Refer to Table 28-3 for required clock frequency and settings. The required clock frequency of the generic clock can be calculated from the following equation: R is the upsampling ratio of the converter. If CR.ALTUPR is zero the upsampling ratio is 128. If CR.ALTUPR is one, R will change to 125 when CR.FS is configured for 8kHz, 12kHz, 16kHz, 24kHz, 32kHz, and 48kHz. For the other configurations of CR.FS, 11.025kHz, 22.050kHz, and 44.100kHz, it will change to 136. 28.6.10 DMA operation The Audio Bitstream DAC is connected to the Peripheral DMA Controller. The Peripheral DMA Controller can be programmed to automatically transfer samples to the Sample Data Registers (SDR0 and SDR1) when the Audio Bitstream DAC is ready for new samples. Two DMA channels are used, one for each sample data register. If the Mono Mode bit in the Control Register (CR.MONO) is one, or one of the compact stereo formats is used, only the DMA channel connected to SDR0 will be used. When using DMA only the Control Register needs to be written in the Audio Bitstream DAC. This enables the Audio Bitstream DAC to operate without any CPU intervention such as polling the Status Register (SR) or using interrupts. See the Peripheral DMA Controller documentation for details on how to setup Peripheral DMA transfers. 28.6.11 Interrupts The ABDACB requires new data samples at a rate of FS. The interrupt status bits are used to indicate when the system is ready to receive new samples. The Transmit Ready Interrupt Status bit in the Status Register (SR.TXRDY) will be set whenever the ABDACB is ready to receive a new sample. A new sample value must be written to the sample data registers (SDR0 and VOUT 1 2 -- 33 128 – --------- SDR 215 ------------ VOLUME 215 – 1   ------------------------     VVDDIO =  GCLK[Hz] F = S   R 8 693 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U SDR1) before 1/FS second, or an underrun will occur, as indicated by the Underrun Interrupt bit in SR (SR.TXUR). The interrupt bits in SR are cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Status Clear Register (SCR). 28.6.12 Frequency Response Figure Figure 28-4 to Figure 28-7 show the frequency response for the system. The sampling frequency used is 48kHz, but the response will be the same for other sampling frequencies, always having the first zero at FS. Figure 28-4.

This need to be accounted for during testing if comparing to a reference signal.

The ADCIFB is based on a Successive Approximation Register (SAR) 10-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC). The conversions extend from 0V to ADVREFP. The ADCIFB supports 8-bit and 10-bit resolution mode, in addition to enhanced resolution mode with 11-bit and 12-bit resolution. Conversion results are reported in a common register for all channels. The 11-bit and 12-bit resolution modes are obtained by interpolating multiple samples to acquire better accuracy. For 11-bit mode 4 samples are used, which gives an effective sample rate of 1/4 of the actual sample frequency. For 12-bit mode 16 samples are used, giving a effective sample rate of 1/16 of actual. This arrangement allows conversion speed to be traded for better accuracy. Conversions can be started for all enabled channels, either by a software trigger, by detection of a level change on the external trigger pin (TRIGGER), or by an integrated programmable timer. When the Resistive Touch Screen Mode is enabled, an integrated sequencer automatically configures the pad control signals and performs resistive touch screen conversions. The ADCIFB also integrates an ADC Sleep Mode, a Pen-Detect Mode, and an Analog Compare Mode, and connects with one Peripheral DMA Controller channel. These features reduce both power consumption and processor intervention. 712 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 29.3 Block Diagram Figure 29-1.

The user must make sure the I/O Controller is configured correctly to allow the ADCIFB access to the AD pins before the ADCIFB is instructed to start converting data. If the user fails to do this the converted data may be wrong. The number of analog inputs is device dependent, please refer to the ADCIFB Module Configuration chapter for the number of available AD inputs on the current device. The ADVREFP pin must be connected correctly prior to using the ADCIFB. Failing to do so will result in invalid ADC operation. See the Electrical Characteristics chapter for details. If the TRIGGER, ADP0, and ADP1 pins are to be used in the application, the user must configure the I/O Controller to assign the needed pins to the ADCIFB function. 29.5.2 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the ADCIFB, the ADCIFB will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. If the Peripheral Event System is configured to send asynchronous peripheral events to the ADCIFB and the clock used by the ADCIFB is stopped, a local and temporary clock will automatically be requested so the event can be processed. Refer to Section 29.6.13, Section 29.6.12, and the Peripheral Event System chapter for details. Before entering a sleep mode where the clock to the ADCIFB is stopped, make sure the Analogto-Digital Converter cell is put in an inactive state. Refer to Section 29.6.13 for more information. 29.5.3 Clocks The clock for the ADCIFB bus interface (CLK_ADCIFB) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the ADCIFB before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the ADCIFB in an undefined state.

Using the ADCIFB DMA functionality requires the Peripheral DMA Controller to be programmed first. 29.5.5 Interrupts The ADCIFB interrupt request line is connected to the interrupt controller. Using the ADCIFB interrupt request functionality requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 29.5.6 Peripheral Events The ADCIFB peripheral events are connected via the Peripheral Event System. Refer to the Peripheral Event System chapter for details 29.5.7 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, this module continues normal operation. If this module is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupt requests or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 29.6 Functional Description The ADCIFB embeds a Successive Approximation Register (SAR) Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC). The ADC supports 8-bit or 10-bit resolution, which can be extended to 11 or 12 bits by the Enhanced Resolution Mode. The conversion is performed on a full range between 0V and the reference voltage pin ADVREFP. Analog inputs between these voltages converts to digital values (codes) based on a linear conversion. This linear conversion is described in the expression below where M is the number of bits used to represent the analog value, Vin is the voltage of the analog value to convert, Vref is the maximum voltage, and Code is the converted digital value. 29.6.1 Initializing the ADCIFB The ADC Interface is enabled by writing a one to the Enable bit in the Control Register (CR.EN). After the ADC Interface is enabled, the ADC timings needs to be configured by writing the correct values to the RES, PRESCAL, and STARTUP fields in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR). See Section 29.6.5, and Section 29.6.7 for details. Before the ADCIFB can be used, the I/O Controller must be configured correctly and the Reference Voltage (ADVREFP) signal must be connected. Refer to Section 29.5.1 for details. 29.6.2 Basic Operation To convert analog values to digital values the user must first initialize the ADCIFB as described in Section 29.6.1. When the ADCIFB is initialized the channels to convert must be enabled by writing a one the corresponding bits in the Channel Enable Register (CHER). Enabling channel N instructs the ADCIFB to convert the analog voltage applied to AD pin N at each conversion sequence. Multiple channels can be enabled resulting in multiple AD pins being converted at each conversion sequence. Code 2M Vin  Vref = ------------------- 715 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U To start converting data the user can either manually start a conversion sequence by writing a one to the START bit in the Control Register (CR.START) or configure an automatic trigger to initiate the conversions. The automatic trigger can be configured to trig on many different conditions. Refer to Section 29.8.1 for details. The result of the conversion is stored in the Last Converted Data Register (LCDR) as they become available, overwriting the result from the previous conversion. To avoid data loss if more than one channel is enabled, the user must read the conversion results as they become available either by using an interrupt handler or by using a Peripheral DMA channel to copy the results to memory. Failing to do so will result in an Overrun Error condition, indicated by the OVRE bit in the Status Register (SR). To use an interrupt handler the user must enable the Data Ready (DRDY) interrupt request by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER). To clear the interrupt after the conversion result is read, the user must write a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Clear Register (ICR). See Section 29.6.11 for details. To use a Peripheral DMA Controller channel the user must configure the Peripheral DMA Controller appropriately. The Peripheral DMA Controller will, when configured, automatically read converted data as they become available. There is no need to manually clear any bits in the Interrupt Status Register as this is performed by the hardware. If an Overrun Error condition happens during DMA operation, the OVRE bit in the SR will be set. 29.6.3 ADC Resolution The Analog-to-Digital Converter cell supports 8-bit or 10-bit resolution, which can be extended to 11-bit and 12-bit with the Enhanced Resolution Mode. The resolution is selected by writing the selected resolution value to the RES field in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR). See Section 29.9.3. By writing a zero to the RES field, the ADC switches to the lowest resolution and the conversion results can be read in the eight lowest significant bits of the Last Converted Data Register (LCDR). The four highest bits of the Last Converted Data (LDATA) field in the LCDR register reads as zero. Writing a one to the RES field enables 10-bit resolution, the optimal resolution for both sampling speed and accuracy. Writing two or three automatically enables Enhanced Resolution Mode with 11-bit or 12-bit resolution, see Section 29.6.4 for details. When a Peripheral DMA Controller channel is connected to the ADCIFB in 10-bit, 11-bit, or 12- bit resolution mode, a transfer size of 16 bits must be used. By writing a zero to the RES field, the destination buffers can be optimized for 8-bit transfers. 29.6.4 Enhanced Resolution Mode The Enhanced Resolution Mode is automatically enabled when 11-bit or 12-bit mode is selected in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR). In this mode the ADCIFB will trade conversion performance for accuracy by averaging multiple samples. To be able to increase the accuracy by averaging multiple samples it is important that some noise is present in the input signal. The noise level should be between one and two LSB peakto-peak to get good averaging performance. The performance cost of enabling 11-bit mode is 4 ADC samples, which reduces the effective ADC performance by a factor 4. For 12-bit mode this factor is 16. For 12-bit mode the effective sample rate is maximum ADC sample rate divided by 16. 716 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 29.6.5 ADC Clock The ADCIFB generates an internal clock named CLK_ADC that is used by the Analog-to-Digital Converter cell to perform conversions. The CLK_ADC frequency is selected by writing to the PRESCAL field in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR). The CLK_ADC range is between CLK_ADCIFB/2, if PRESCAL is 0, and CLK_ADCIFB/128, if PRESCAL is 63 (0x3F). A sensible PRESCAL value must be used in order to provide an ADC clock frequency according to the maximum sampling rate parameter given in the Electrical Characteristics section. Failing to do so may result in incorrect Analog-to-Digital Converter operation. 29.6.6 ADC Sleep Mode The ADC Sleep Mode maximizes power saving by automatically deactivating the Analog-to-Digital Converter cell when it is not being used for conversions. The ADC Sleep Mode is enabled by writing a one to the SLEEP bit in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR). When a trigger occurs while the ADC Sleep Mode is enabled, the Analog-to-Digital Converter cell is automatically activated. As the analog cell requires a startup time, the logic waits during this time and then starts the conversion of the enabled channels. When conversions of all enabled channels are complete, the ADC is deactivated until the next trigger. 29.6.7 Startup Time The Analog-to-Digital Converter cell has a minimal startup time when the cell is activated. This startup time is given in the Electrical Characteristics chapter and must be written to the STARTUP field in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR) to get correct conversion results. The STARTUP field expects the startup time to be represented as the number of CLK_ADC cycles between 8 and 1024 and in steps of 8 that is needed to cover the ADC startup time as specified in the Electrical Characteristics chapter. The Analog-to-Digital Converter cell is activated at the first conversion after reset and remains active if ACR.SLEEP is zero. If ACR.SLEEP is one, the Analog-to-Digital Converter cell is automatically deactivated when idle and thus each conversion sequence will have a initial startup time delay. 29.6.8 Sample and Hold Time A minimal Sample and Hold Time is necessary for the ADCIFB to guarantee the best converted final value when switching between ADC channels. This time depends on the input impedance of the analog input, but also on the output impedance of the driver providing the signal to the analog input, as there is no input buffer amplifier. The Sample and Hold time has to be programmed through the SHTIM field in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR). This field can define a Sample and Hold time between 1 and 16 CLK_ADC cycles. 29.6.9 ADC Conversion ADC conversions are performed on all enabled channels when a trigger condition is detected. For details regarding trigger conditions see Section 29.8.1. The term channel is used to identify a specific analog input pin so it can be included or excluded in an Analog-to-Digital conversion sequence and to identify which AD pin was used to convert the current value in the Last Converted Data Register (LCDR). Channel number N corresponding to AD pin number N. 717 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Channels are enabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Channel Enable Register (CHER), and disabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Channel Disable Register (CHDR). Active channels are listed in the Channel Status Register (CHSR). When a conversion sequence is started, all enabled channels will be converted in one sequence and the result will be placed in the Last Converted Data Register (LCDR) with the channel number used to produce the result. It is important to read out the results while the conversion sequence is ongoing, as new values will automatically overwrite any old value and the old value will be lost if not previously read by the user. If the Analog-to-Digital Converter cell is inactive when starting a conversion sequence, the conversion logic will wait a configurable number of CLK_ADC cycles as defined in the startup time field in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR). After the cell is activated all enabled channels is converted one by one until no more enabled channels exist. The conversion sequence converts each enabled channel in order starting with the channel with the lowest channel number. If the ACR.SLEEP bit is one, the Analog-to-Digital Converter cell is deactivated after the conversion sequence has finished. For each channel converted, the ADCIFB waits a Sample and Hold number of CLK_ADC cycles as defined in the SHTIM field in ACR, and then instructs the Analog-to-Digital Converter cell to start converting the analog voltage. The ADC cell requires 10 CLK_ADC cycles to actually convert the value, so the total time to convert a channel is Sample and Hold + 10 CLK_ADC cycles. 29.6.10 Analog Compare Mode The ADCIFB can test if the converted values, as they become available, are below, above, or inside a specified range and generate interrupt requests based on this information. This is useful for applications where the user wants to monitor some external analog signal and only initiate actions if the value is above, below, or inside some specified range. The Analog Compare mode is enabled by writing a one to the Analog Compare Enable (ACE) bit in the Mode Register (MR). The values to compare must be written to the Low Value (LV) field and the High Value (HV) field in the Compare Value Register (CVR). The Analog Compare mode will, when enabled, check all enabled channels against the pre-programmed high and low values and set status bits. To generate an interrupt request if a converted value is below a limit, write the limit to the CVR.LV field and enable interrupt request on the Compare Lesser Than (CLT) bit by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER). To generate an interrupt request if a converted value is above a limit, write the limit to the CVR.HV field and enable interrupt for Compare Greater Than (CGT) bit. To generate an interrupt request if a converted value is inside a range, write the low and high limit to the LV and HV fields and enable the Compare Else (CELSE) interrupt. To generate an interrupt request if a value is outside a range, write the LV and HV fields to the low and high limits of the range and enable CGT and CLT interrupts. Note that the values written to LV and HV must match the resolution selected in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR). 29.6.11 Interrupt Operation Interrupt requests are enabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER) and disabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Disable Register (IDR). Enabled interrupts can be read from the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR). Active interrupt requests, but potentially masked, are visible in the Interrupt Status Register (ISR). To 718 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U clear an active interrupt request, write a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Clear Register (ICR). The source for the interrupt requests are the status bits in the Status Register (SR). The SR shows the ADCIFB status at the time the register is read. The Interrupt Status Register (ISR) shows the status since the last write to the Interrupt Clear Register. The combination of ISR and SR allows the user to react to status change conditions but also allows the user to read the current status at any time. 29.6.12 Peripheral Events The Peripheral Event System can be used together with the ADCIFB to allow any peripheral event generator to be used as a trigger source. To enable peripheral events to trigger a conversion sequence the user must write the Peripheral Event Trigger value (0x7) to the Trigger Mode (TRGMOD) field in the Trigger Register (TRGR). Refer to Table 29-4 on page 730. The user must also configure a peripheral event generator to emit peripheral events for the ADCIFB to trigger on. Refer to the Peripheral Event System chapter for details. 29.6.13 Sleep Mode Before entering sleep modes the user must make sure the ADCIFB is idle and that the Analogto-Digital Converter cell is inactive. To deactivate the Analog-to-Digital Converter cell the SLEEP bit in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR) must be written to one and the ADCIFB must be idle. To make sure the ADCIFB is idle, write a zero the Trigger Mode (TRGMOD) field in the Trigger Register (TRGR) and wait for the READY bit in the Status Register (SR) to be set. Note that by deactivating the Analog-to-Digital Converter cell, a startup time penalty as defined in the STARTUP field in the ADC Configuration Register (ACR) will apply on the next conversion. 29.6.14 Conversion Performances For performance and electrical characteristics of the ADCIFB, refer to the Electrical Characteristics chapter. 29.7 Resistive Touch Screen The ADCIFB embeds an integrated Resistive Touch Screen Sequencer that can be used to calculate contact coordinates on a resistive touch screen film. When instructed to start, the integrated Resistive Touch Screen Sequencer automatically applies a sequence of voltage patterns to the resistive touch screen films and the Analog-to-Digital Conversion cell is used to measure the effects. The resulting measurements can be used to calculate the horizontal and vertical contact coordinates. It is recommended to use a high resistance touch screen for optimal resolution. The resistive touch screen film is connected to the ADCIFB using the AD and ADP pins. See Section 29.7.3 for details. Resistive Touch Screen Mode is enabled by writing a one to the Touch Screen ADC Mode field in the Mode Register (MR.TSAMOD). In this mode, channels TSPO+0 though TSPO+3 are automatically enabled where TSPO refers to the Touch Screen Pin Offset field in the Mode Register (MR.TSPO). For each conversion sequence, all enabled channels before TSPO+0 and after TSPO+3 are converted as ordinary ADC channels, producing 1 conversion result each. When the sequencer enters the TSPO+0 channel the Resistive Touch Screen Sequencer will take over control and convert the next 4 channels as described in Section 29.7.4. 719 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 29.7.1 Resistive Touch Screen Principles A resistive touch screen is based on two resistive films, each one fitted with a pair of electrodes, placed at the top and bottom on one film, and on the right and left on the other. Between the two, there is a layer that acts as an insulator, but makes a connection when pressure is applied to the screen. This is illustrated in Figure 29-2 on page 719. Figure 29-2. Resistive Touch Screen Position Measurement 29.7.2 Position Measurement Method As shown in Figure 29-2 on page 719, to detect the position of a contact, voltage is first applied to XP (top) and Xm (bottom) leaving Yp and Ym tristated. Due to the linear resistance of the film, there is a voltage gradient from top to bottom on the first film. When a contact is performed on the screen, the voltage at the contact point propagates to the second film. If the input impedance on the YP (right) and Ym (left) electrodes are high enough, no current will flow, allowing the voltage at the contact point to be measured at Yp. The value measured represents the vertical position component of the contact point. For the horizontal direction, the same method is used, but by applying voltage from YP (right) to Ym (left) and measuring at XP. In an ideal world (linear, with no loss), the vertical position is equal to: VYP / VDD To compensate for some of the real world imperfections, VXP and VXm can be measured and used to improve accuracy at the cost of two more conversions per axes. The new expression for the vertical position then becomes: (VYP - VXM) / (VXP - VXM) XM XP YM YP XP XM YP VDD GND Volt Horizontal Position Detection YP YM XP VDD GND Volt Vertical Position Detection Pen Contact 720 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 29.7.3 Resistive Touch Screen Pin Connections The resistive touch screen film signals connects to the ADCIFB using the AD and ADP pins. The XP (top) and XM (bottom) film signals are connected to ADtspo+0 and ADtspo+1 pins, and the YP (right) and YM (left) signals are connected to ADtspo+2 and ADtspo+3 pins. The tspo index is configurable through the Touch Screen Pin Offset (TSPO) field in the Mode Register (MR) and allows the user to configure which AD pins to use for resistive touch screen applications. Writing a zero to the TSPO field instructs the ADCIFB to use AD0 through AD3, where AD0 is connected to XP, AD1 is connected to XM and so on. Writing a one to the TSPO field instructs the ADCIFB to use AD1 through AD4 for resistive touch screen sequencing, where AD1 is connected to XP and AD0 is free to be used as an ordinary ADC channel. When the Analog Pin Output Enable (APOE) bit in the Mode Register (MR) is zero, the AD pins are used to measure input voltage and drive the GND sequences, while the ADP pins are used to drive the VDD sequences. This arrangement allows the user to reduce the voltage seen at the AD input pins by inserting external resistors between ADP0 and XP and ADP1 and YP signals which are again directly connected to the AD pins. It is important that the voltages observed at the AD pins are not higher than the maximum allowed ADC input voltage. See Figure 29-3 on page 721 for details regarding how to connect the resistive touch screen films to the AD and ADP pins. By adding a resistor between ADP0 and XP, and ADP1 and YP, the maximum voltage observed at the AD pins can be controlled by the following voltage divider expressions: The Rfilmx parameter is the film resistance observed when measuring between XP and XM. The Rresistorx parameter is the resistor size inserted between ADP0 and XP. The definition of Rfilmy and Rresistory is the same but for ADP1, YP, and YM instead. Table 29-2.

Writing a one to the APOE bit instructs the ADCIFB Resistive Touch Screen Sequencer to use the already connected ADtspo+0 and ADtspo+2 pins to drive VDD to XP and YP signals directly. In this mode the ADP pins can be used as general purpose I/O pins. Before writing a one to the APOE bit the user must make sure that the I/O voltage is compatible with the ADC input voltage. If the I/O voltage is higher than the maximum input voltage of the ADC, permanent damage may occur. Refer to the Electrical Characteristics chapter for details. Figure 29-3.

This is done by controlling the output enable and the output value of the ADP and AD pins. This allows the Resistive Touch Screen Sequencer to add a voltage gradient on one film while keeping the other film floating so a touch can be measured. The Resistive Touch Screen Sequencer will when measuring the vertical position, apply VDD and GND to the pins connected to XP and XM. The YP and YM pins are put in tristate mode so the measurement of YP can proceed without interference. To compensate for ADC offset errors and non ideal pad drivers, the actual voltage of XP and XM is measured as well, so the real values for VDD and GND can be used in the contact point calculation to increase accuracy. See second formula in Section 29.7.2. When the vertical values are converted the same setup is applies for the second axes, by setting XP and XM in tristate mode and applying VDD and GND to YP and YM. Refer to Section 29.8.3 for details. 29.7.5 Pen Detect If no contact is applied to the resistive touch screen films, any resistive touch screen conversion result will be undefined as the film being measured is floating. This can be avoided by enabling Pen Detect and only trigger resistive touch screen conversions when the Pen Contact (PENCNT) status bit in the Status Register (SR) is one. Pen Detect is enabled by writing a one to the Pen Detect (PENDET) bit in the Mode Register (MR). When Pen Detect is enabled, the ADCIFB grounds the vertical panel by applying GND to XP and XM and polarizes the horizontal panel by enabling pull-up on the pin connected to YP. The YM pin will in this mode be tristated. Since there is no contact, no current is flowing and there is no related power consumption. As soon as a contact occurs, GND will propagate to YM by pulling down YP, allowing the contact to be registered by the ADCIFB. A programmable debouncing filter can be used to filter out false pen detects because of noise. The debouncing filter is programmable from one CLK_ADC period and up to 215 CLK_ADC periods. The debouncer length is set by writing to the PENDBC field in MR. 723 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 29-4. Resistive Touch Screen Pen Detect The Resistive Touch Screen Pen Detect can be used to generate an ADCIFB interrupt request or it can be used to trig a conversion, so that a position can be measured as soon as a contact is detected. The Pen Detect Mode generates two types of status signals, reported in the Status Register (SR): • The bit PENCNT is set when current flows and remains set until current stops. • The bit NOCNT is set when no current flows and remains set until current flows. Before a current change is reflected in the SR, the new status must be stable for the duration of the debouncing time. Both status conditions can generate an interrupt request if the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR) is one. Refer to Section 29.6.11 on page 717.

If channels except the dedicated resistive touch screen channels are enabled, they are converted normally before and after the resistive touch screen channels are converted. The operating mode is selected by the TSAMOD field in the Mode Register (MR). 29.8.1 Conversion Triggers A conversion sequence is started either by a software or by a hardware trigger. When a conversion sequence is started, all enabled channels will be converted and made available in the shared Last Converted Register (LCDR). The software trigger is asserted by writing a one to the START field in the Control Register (CR). The hardware trigger can be selected by the TRGMOD field in the Trigger Register (TRGR). Different hardware triggers exist: • External trigger, either rising or falling or any, detected on the external trigger pin TRIGGER • Pen detect trigger, depending the PENDET bit in the Mode Register (MR) • Continuous trigger, meaning the ADCIFB restarts the next sequence as soon as it finishes the current one • Periodic trigger, which is defined by the TRGR.TRGPER field • Peripheral event trigger, allowing the Peripheral Event System to synchronize conversion with some configured peripheral event source. Enabling a hardware trigger does not disable the software trigger functionality. Thus, if a hardware trigger is selected, the start of a conversion can still be initiated by the software trigger. 29.8.2 ADC Mode In the ADC Mode, the active channels are defined by the Channel Status Register (CHSR). A channel is enabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Channel Enable Register (CHER), and disabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Channel Disable Register (CHDR). The conversion results are stored in the Last Converted Data Register (LCDR) as they become available, overwriting old conversions. At each trigger, the following sequence is performed: 1. If ACR.SLEEP is one, wake up the ADC and wait for the startup time. 2. If Channel 0 is enabled, convert Channel 0 and store result in LCDR. 3. If Channel 1 is enabled, convert Channel 1 and store result in LCDR. 4. If Channel N is enabled, convert Channel N and store result in LCDR. 5. If ACR.SLEEP is one, place the ADC cell in a low-power state. If the Peripheral DMA Controller is enabled, all converted values are transferred continuously into the memory buffer. 29.8.3 Resistive Touch Screen Mode Writing a one to the TSAMOD field in the Mode Register (MR) enables Resistive Touch Screen Mode. In this mode the channels TSPO+0 to TSPO+3, corresponding to the resistive touch 725 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U screen inputs, are automatically activated. In addition, if any other channels are enabled, they will be converted before and after the resistive touch screen conversion. At each trigger, the following sequence is performed: 1. If ACR.SLEEP is one, wake up the ADC cell and wait for the startup time. 2. Convert all enabled channels before TSPO and store the results in the LCDR. 3. Apply supply on the inputs XP and XM during the Sample and Hold Time. 4. Convert Channel XM and store the result in TMP. 5. Apply supply on the inputs XP and XM during the Sample and Hold Time. 6. Convert Channel XP, subtract TMP from the result and store the subtracted result in LCDR. 7. Apply supply on the inputs XP and XM during the Sample and Hold Time. 8. Convert Channel YP, subtract TMP from the result and store the subtracted result in LCDR. 9. Apply supply on the inputs YP and YM during the Sample and Hold Time. 10. Convert Channel YM and store the result in TMP. 11. Apply supply on the inputs YP and YM during the Sample and Hold Time. 12. Convert Channel YP, subtract TMP from the result and store the subtracted result in LCDR. 13. Apply supply on the inputs YP and YM during the Sample and Hold Time. 14. Convert Channel XP, subtract TMP from the result and store the subtracted result in LCDR. 15. Convert all enabled channels after TSPO + 3 and store results in the LCDR. 16. If ACR.SLEEP is one, place the ADC cell in a low-power state. The resulting buffer structure stored in memory is: 1. XP - XM 2. YP - XM 3. YP - YM 4. XP - YM. The vertical position can be easily calculated by dividing the data at offset 1(XP - XM) by the data at offset 2(YP - XM). The horizontal position can be easily calculated by dividing the data at offset 3(YP - YM) by the data at offset 4(XP - YM). 726 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 29.9 User Interface Note: 1.

Analog Comparator Interface (ACIFB) Rev: 2.0.2.2 30.1 Features • Controls an array of Analog Comparators • Low power option – Single shot mode support • Selectable settings for filter option – Filter length and hysteresis • Window Mode – Detect inside/outside window – Detect above/below window • Interrupt – On comparator result rising edge, falling edge, toggle – Inside window, outside window, toggle – When startup time has passed • Can generate events to the peripheral event system 30.2 Overview The Analog Comparator Interface (ACIFB) is able to control a number of Analog Comparators (AC) with identical behavior. An Analog Comparator compares two voltages and gives a compare output depending on this comparison. The ACIFB can be configured in normal mode using each comparator independently or in window mode using defined comparator pairs to observe a window. The number of channels implemented is device specific. Refer to the Module Configuration section at the end of this chapter for details. 747 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 30.3 Block Diagram Figure 30-1. ACIFB Block Diagram 30.4 I/O Lines Description There are two groups of analog comparators, A and B, as shown in Table 30-1. In normal mode, this grouping does not have any meaning. In window mode, two analog comparators, one from group A and the corresponding comparator from group B, are paired. ……………...

For normal mode, the mapping from input signal names in the block diagram to the signal names is given in Table 30-3. 30.5 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 30.5.1 I/O Lines The ACIFB pins are multiplexed with other peripherals. The user must first program the I/O Controller to give control of the pins to the ACIFB. 30.5.2 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the ACIFB, the ACIFB will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. 30.5.3 Clocks The clock for the ACIFB bus interface (CLK_ACIFB) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the ACIFB before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the ACIFB in an undefined state. The ACIFB uses a GCLK as clock source for the Analog Comparators. The user must set up this GCLK at the right frequency. The CLK_ACIFB clock of the interface must be at least 4x the GCLK frequency used in the comparators. The GCLK is used both for measuring the startup time of a comparator, and to give a frequency for the comparisons done in Continuous Measurement Mode, see Section 30.6. Refer to the Electrical Characteristics chapter for GCLK frequency limitations.

Using the ACIFB interrupt requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 30.5.5 Peripheral Events The ACIFB peripheral events are connected via the Peripheral Event System. Refer to the Peripheral Event System chapter for details. 30.5.6 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the ACIFB continues normal operation. If the ACIFB is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 30.6 Functional Description The ACIFB is enabled by writing a one to the Control Register Enable bit (CTRL.EN). Additionally, the comparators must be individually enabled by programming the MODE field in the AC Configuration Register (CONFn.MODE). The results from the individual comparators can either be used directly (normal mode), or the results from two comparators can be grouped to generate a comparison window (window mode). All comparators need not be in the same mode, some comparators may be in normal mode, while others are in window mode. There are restrictions on which AC channels that can be grouped together in a window pair, see Section 30.6.5. 30.6.1 Analog Comparator Operation Each AC channel can be in one of four different modes, determined by CONFn.MODE: • Off • Continuous Measurement Mode (CM) • User Triggered Single Measurement Mode (UT) • Event Triggered Single Measurement Mode (ET) After being enabled, a startup time defined in CTRL.SUT is required before the result of the comparison is ready. The GCLK is used for measuring the startup time of a comparator, During the startup time the AC output is not available. When the ACn Ready bit in the Status Register (SR.ACRDYn) is one, the output of ACn is ready. In window mode the result is available when both the comparator outputs are ready (SR.ACRDYn=1 and SR.ACRDYn+1=1). 30.6.1.1 Continuous Measurement Mode In CM, the Analog Comparator is continuously enabled and performing comparisons. This ensures that the result of the latest comparison is always available in the ACn Current Comparison Status bit in the Status Register (SR.ACCSn). Comparisons are done on every positive edge of GCLK. CM is enabled by writing CONFn.MODE to 1. After the startup time has passed, a comparison is done and SR is updated. Appropriate peripheral events and interrupts are also generated. New comparisons are performed continuously until the CONFn.MODE field is written to 0. 750 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 30.6.1.2 User Triggered Single Measurement Mode In the UT mode, the user starts a single comparison by writing a one to the User Start Single Comparison bit (CTRL.USTART). This mode is enabled by writing CONFn.MODE to 2. After the startup time has passed, a single comparison is done and SR is updated. Appropriate peripheral events and interrupts are also generated. No new comparisons will be performed. CTRL.USTART is cleared automatically by hardware when the single comparison has been done. 30.6.1.3 Event Triggered Single Measurement Mode This mode is enabled by writing CONFn.MODE to 3 and Peripheral Event Trigger Enable (CTRL.EVENTEN) to one. The ET mode is similar to the UT mode, the difference is that a peripheral event from another hardware module causes the hardware to automatically set the Peripheral Event Start Single Comparison bit (CTRL.ESTART). After the startup time has passed, a single comparison is done and SR is updated. Appropriate peripheral events and interrupts are also generated. No new comparisons will be performed. CTRL.ESTART is cleared automatically by hardware when the single comparison has been done. 30.6.1.4 Selecting Comparator Inputs Each Analog Comparator has one positive (INP) and one negative (INN) input. The positive input is fed from an external input pin (ACPn). The negative input can either be fed from an external input pin (ACNn) or from a reference voltage common to all ACs (ACREFN). The user selects the input source as follows: • In normal mode with the Negative Input Select and Positive Input Select fields (CONFn.INSELN and CONFn.INSELP). • In window mode with CONFn.INSELN, CONFn.INSELP and CONFn+1.INSELN, CONFn+1,INSELP. The user must configure CONFn.INSELN and CONFn+1.INSELP to the same source. 30.6.2 Interrupt Generation The interrupt request will be generated if the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR) is set. Bits in IMR are set by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER), and cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Disable Register (IDR). The interrupt request remains active until the corresponding bit in ISR is cleared by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Status Clear Register (ICR). 30.6.3 Peripheral Event Generation The ACIFB can be set up so that certain comparison results notify other parts of the device via the Peripheral Event system. Refer to Section 30.6.4.3 and Section 30.6.5.3 for information on which comparison results can generate events, and how to configure the ACIFB to achieve this. Zero or one event will be generated per comparison. 30.6.4 Normal Mode In normal mode all Analog Comparators are operating independently. 30.6.4.1 Normal Mode Output Each Analog Comparator generates one output ACOUT according to the input voltages on INP (AC positive input) and INN (AC negative input): 751 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • ACOUT = 1 if VINP > VINN • ACOUT = 0 if VINP < VINN • ACOUT = 0 if the AC output is not available (SR.ACRDY = 0) The output can optionally be filtered, as described in Section 30.6.6. 30.6.4.2 Normal Mode Interrupt The AC channels can generate interrupts. The Interrupt Settings field in the Configuration Register (CONFn.IS) can be configured to select when the AC will generate an interrupt: • When VINP > VINN • When VINP < VINN • On toggle of the AC output (ACOUT) • When comparison has been done 30.6.4.3 Normal Mode Peripheral Events The ACIFB can generate peripheral events according to the configuration of CONFn.EVENN and CONFn.EVENP. • When VINP > VINN or • When VINP < VINN or • On toggle of the AC output (ACOUT) 30.6.5 Window Mode In window mode, two ACs (an even and the following odd build up a pair) are grouped. The negative input of ACn (even) and the positive input of ACn+1 (odd) has to be connected together externally to the device and are controlled by the Input Select fields in the AC Configuration Registers (CONFn.INSELN and CONFn+1.INSELP). The positive input of ACn (even) and the negative input of ACn+1 (odd) can still be configured independently by CONFn.INSELP and CONFn+1.INSELN, respectively. 752 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 30-2. Analog Comparator Interface in Window Mode 30.6.5.1 Window Mode Output When operating in window mode, each channel generates the same ACOUT outputs as in normal mode, see Section 30.6.4.1. Additionally, the ACIFB generates a window mode signal (acwout) according to the common input voltage to be compared: • ACWOUT = 1 if the common input voltage is inside the window, VACN(N+1) < Vcommon < VACP(N) • ACWOUT = 0 if the common input voltage is outside the window, Vcommon < VACN(N+1) or Vcommon > VACP(N) • ACWOUT = 0 if the window mode output is not available (SR.ACRDYn=0 or SR.ACRDYn+1=0) 30.6.5.2 Window Mode Interrupts When operating in window mode, each channel can generate the same interrupts as in normal mode, see Section 30.6.4.2. Additionally, when channels operate in window mode, programming Window Mode Interrupt Settings in the Window Mode Configuration Register (CONFWn.WIS) can cause interrupts to be generated when: • As soon as the common input voltage is inside the window. • As soon as the common input voltage is outside the window. • On toggle of the window compare output (ACWOUT). • When the comparison in both channels in the window pair is ready.

Additionally, when channels operate in window mode, programming Window Mode Event Selection Source (CONFWn.WEVSRC) can cause peripheral events to be generated when: • As soon as the common input voltage is inside the window. • As soon as the common input voltage is outside the window. • On toggle of the window compare output (ACWOUT) • Whenever a comparison is ready and the common input voltage is inside the window. • Whenever a comparison is ready and the common input voltage is outside the window. • When the comparison in both channels in the window pair is ready. 30.6.6 Filtering The output of the comparator can be filtered to reduce noise. The filter length is determined by the Filter Length field in the CONFn register (CONFn.FLEN). The filter samples the Analog Comparator output at the GCLK frequency for 2CONFn.FLEN samples. A separate counter (CNT) counts the number of cycles the AC output was one. This filter is deactivated if CONFn.FLEN equals 0. If the filter is enabled, the Hysteresis Value field HYS in the CONFn register (CONFn.HYS) can be used to define a hysteresis value. The hysteresis value should be chosen so that: The filter function is defined by: The filtering algorithm is explained in Figure 30-3. 2FLEN measurements are sampled. If the number of measurements that are zero is less than (2FLEN/2 - HYS), the filtered result is zero. If the number of measurements that are one is more than (2FLEN/2 + HYS), the filtered result is one. Otherwise, the result is unchanged. 2FLEN 2 ----------------  HYS CNT 2FLEN 2 ---------------- + HYS       comp = 1 2FLEN 2 ---------------- + HYS     CNT 2FLEN 2 ----------------–HYS        comp unchanged CNT 2FLEN 2 ----------------–HYS       comp = 0 754 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 30-3. The Filtering Algorithm 30.7 Peripheral Event Triggers Peripheral events from other modules can trigger comparisons in the ACIFB. All channels that are set up in Event Triggered Single Measurement Mode will be started simultaneously when a peripheral event is received. Channels that are operating in Continuous Measurement Mode or User Triggered Single Measurement Mode will be unaffected by the received event. The software can still operate these channels independently of channels in Event Triggered Single Measurement Mode. A peripheral event will trigger one or more comparisons, in normal or window mode. 30.8 AC Test mode By writing the Analog Comparator Test Mode (CR.ACTEST) bit to one, the outputs from the ACs are overridden by the value in the Test Register (TR), see Figure 30-1. This is useful for software development. 2 FLEN 2 FLEN 2 HYS HYS ”Result=0" ”Result=1" Result = UNCHANGED 0 755 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 30.9 User Interface Note: 1.

Capacitive Touch Module (CAT) Rev: 4.0.0.0 31.1 Features • QTouch® method allows N touch sensors to be implemented using 2N physical pins • QMatrix method allows X by Y matrix of sensors to be implemented using (X+2Y) physical pins • One autonomous QTouch sensor operates without DMA or CPU intervention • All QTouch sensors can operate in DMA-driven mode without CPU intervention • External synchronization to reduce 50 or 60 Hz mains interference • Spread spectrum sensor drive capability 31.2 Overview The Capacitive Touch Module (CAT) senses touch on external capacitive touch sensors. Capacitive touch sensors use no external mechanical components, and therefore demand less maintenance in the user application. The module implements the QTouch method of capturing signals from capacitive touch sensors. The QTouch method is generally suitable for small numbers of sensors since it requires 2 physical pins per sensor. The module also implements the QMatrix method, which is more appropriate for large numbers of sensors since it allows an X by Y matrix of sensors to be implemented using only (X+2Y) physical pins. The module allows methods to function together, so N touch sensors and an X by Y matrix of sensors can be implemented using (2N+X+2Y) physical pins. In addition, the module allows sensors using the QTouch method to be divided into two groups. Each QTouch group can be configured with different properties. This eases the implementation of multiple kinds of controls such as push buttons, wheels, and sliders. All of the QTouch sensors can operate in a DMA-driven mode, known as DMATouch, that allows detection of touch without CPU intervention. The module also implements one autonomous QTouch sensor that is capable of detecting touch without DMA or CPU intervention. This allows proximity or activation detection in low-power sleep modes. 771 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 31.3 Block Diagram Figure 31-1.

The user must first program the I/O Controller to give control of the pins to the CAT module. In QMatrix mode, the Y lines must be driven by the CAT and analog comparators sense the voltage on the Y lines. Thus, the CAT (not the Analog Comparator Interface) must be the selected function for the Y lines in the I/O Controller. By writing ones and zeros to bits in the Pin Mode Registers (PINMODEx), most of the CAT pins can be individually selected to implement the QTouch method or the QMatrix method. Each pin has a different name and function depending on whether it is implementing the QTouch method or the QMatrix method. The following table shows the pin names for each method and the bits in the PINMODEx registers which control the selection of the QTouch or QMatrix method.

This clock is turned on by default, and can be enabled and disabled in the PM. The user must ensure that CLK_CAT is enabled before using the CAT module. QMatrix operations also require the CAT generic clock, GCLK_CAT. This generic clock is generated by the System Control Interface (SCIF), and is shared between the CAT and the Analog Comparator Interface. The user must ensure that the GCLK_CAT is enabled in the SCIF before using QMatrix functionality in the CAT module. For proper QMatrix operation, the frequency of GCLK_CAT must be less than half the frequency of CLK_CAT. If only QTouch functionality is used, then GCLK_CAT is unnecessary. 31.5.3 Interrupts The CAT interrupt request line is connected to the interrupt controller. Using CAT interrupts requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 31.5.4 Peripheral Events The CAT peripheral events are connected via the Peripheral Event System. Refer to the Peripheral Event System chapter for details. 31.5.5 Peripheral Direct Memory Access The CAT module provides handshake capability for a Peripheral DMA Controller. One handshake controls transfers from the Acquired Count Register (ACOUNT) to memory. A second handshake requests burst lengths for each (X,Y) pair to the Matrix Burst Length Register CSB8 SNSK8 X9 SP8 CSA9 SNS9 Y4 SP9 CSB9 SNSK9 YK4 SP9 CSA10 SNS10 X10 SP10 CSB10 SNSK10 X11 SP10 CSA11 SNS11 Y5 SP11 CSB11 SNSK11 YK5 SP11 CSA12 SNS12 X12 SP12 CSB12 SNSK12 X13 SP12 CSA13 SNS13 Y6 SP13 CSB13 SNSK13 YK6 SP13 CSA14 SNS14 X14 SP14 CSB14 SNSK14 X15 SP14 CSA15 SNS15 Y7 SP15 CSB15 SNSK15 YK7 SP15 CSA16 SNS16 X16 SP16 CSB16 SNSK16 X17 SP16 Table 31-2.

Two additional handshakes support DMATouch by regulating transfers from memory to the DMATouch State Write Register (DMATSW) and from the DMATouch State Read Register (DMATSR) to memory. The Peripheral DMA Controller must be configured properly and enabled in order to perform direct memory access transfers to/from the CAT module. 31.5.6 Analog Comparators When the CAT module is performing QMatrix acquisition, it requires that on-chip analog comparators be used as part of the process. These analog comparators are not controlled directly by the CAT module, but by a separate Analog Comparator (AC) Interface. This interface must be configured properly and enabled before the CAT module is used. This includes configuring the generic clock input for the analog comparators to the proper sampling frequency. The CAT will automatically use the negative peripheral events from the AC Interface on every Y pin in QMatrix mode. When QMatrix acquisition is used the analog comparator corresponding to the selected Y pins must be enabled and converting continuously, using the Y pin as the positive reference and the ACREFN as negative reference. 31.5.7 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the CAT continues normal operation. If the CAT is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 31.6 Functional Description 31.6.1 Acquisition Types The CAT module can perform several types of QTouch acquisition from capacitive touch sensors: autonomous QTouch (one sensor only), DMATouch, QTouch group A, and QTouch group B. The CAT module can also perform QMatrix acquisition. Each type of acquisition has an associated set of pin selection and configuration registers that allow a large degree of flexibility. The following schematic diagrams show typical hardware connections for QTouch and QMatrix sensors, respectively: Figure 31-2. CAT Touch Connections AVR32 Chip QTouch Sensor Cs (Sense Capacitor) SNSKn SNSn 775 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 31-3. CAT Matrix Connections In order to use the autonomous QTouch detection capability, the user must first set up the Autonomous Touch Pin Select Register (ATPINS) and Autonomous/DMA Touch Configuration Registers (ATCFG0 through 3) with appropriate values. The module can then be enabled using the Control Register (CTRL). After the module is enabled, the module will acquire data from the autonomous QTouch sensor and use it to determine whether the sensor is activated. The active/inactive status of the autonomous QTouch sensor is reported in the Status Register (SR), and it is also possible to configure the CAT to generate an interrupt whenever the status changes. The module will continue acquiring autonomous QTouch sensor data and updating autonomous QTouch status until the module is disabled or reset. In order to use the DMATouch capability, it is first necessary to set up the pin mode registers (PINMODE0, PINMODE1, and PINMODE2) so that the desired pins are specified as DMATouch. The Autonomous/DMA Touch Configuration Registers (ATCFG0 through 3) must also be configured with appropriate values. One channel of the Peripheral DMA Controller must be set up to transfer state words from a block of memory to the DMATSW register, and another channel must be set up to transfer state words from the DMATSR register back to the same block of memory. The module can then be enabled using the CTRL register. After the module is enabled, the module will acquire count values from each DMATouch sensor. Once the module has acquired a count value for a sensor, it will use a handshake interface to signal the Peripheral DMA controller to transfer a state word to the DMATSW register. The module will use the count value to update the state word, and then the updated state word will be transferred to the DMATSR register. Another handshake interface will signal the Peripheral DMA controller to transfer the contents of the DMATSR register back to memory. The status of the DMATouch sensors can be determined at any time by reading the DMATouch Sensor Status Register (DMATSS).

If the CAT internal current sources will NOT be enabled, the DIS signal and Rdis resistor should NOT be included in the design. 776 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U In order to use the QMatrix, QTouch group A, or QTouch group B acquisition capabilities, it is first necessary to set up the pin mode registers (PINMODE0, PINMODE1, and PINMODE2) and configuration registers (MGCFG0, MGCFG1, TGACFG0, TGACFG1, TGBCFG0, and TGBCFG1). The module must then be enabled using the CTRL register. In order to initiate acquisition, it is necessary to perform a write to the Acquisition Initiation and Selection Register (AISR). The specific value written to AISR determines which type of acquisition will be performed: QMatrix, QTouch group A, or QTouch group B. The CPU can initiate acquisition by writing to the AISR. While QMatrix, QTouch group A, or QTouch group B acquisition is in progress, the module collects count values from the sensors and buffers them. Availability of acquired count data is indicated by the Acquisition Ready (ACREADY) bit in the Status Register (SR). The CPU or the Peripheral DMA Controller can then read the acquired counts from the ACOUNT register. Because the CAT module is configured with Peripheral DMA Controller capability that can transfer data from memory to MBLEN and from ACOUNT to memory, the Peripheral DMA Controller can perform long acquisition sequences and store results in memory without CPU intervention. 31.6.2 Prescaler and Charge Length Each QTouch acquisition type (autonomous QTouch, QTouch group A, and QTouch group B) has its own prescaler. Each QTouch prescaler divides down the CLK_CAT clock to an appropriate sampling frequency for its particular acquisition type. Typical frequencies are 1MHz for QTouch acquisition and 4MHz for QMatrix burst timing control. Each QTouch prescaler is controlled by the DIV field in the appropriate Configuration Register 0 (ATCFG0, TGACFG0, or TGBCFG0). The QMatrix burst timing prescaler is controlled by the DIV field in MGCFG0. Each prescaler uses the following formula to generate the sampling clock: Sampling clock = CLK_CAT / (2(DIV+1)) The capacitive sensor charge length, discharge length, and settle length can be determined for each acquisition type using the CHLEN, DILEN, and SELEN fields in Configuration Registers 0 and 1. The lengths are specified in terms of prescaler clocks. In addition, the QMatrix Cx discharge length can be determined using the CXDILEN field in MGCFG2. For QMatrix acquisition, the duration of CHLEN should not be set to the same value as the period of any periodic signal on any other pin. If the duration of CHLEN is the same as the period of a signal on another pin, it is likely that the other signal will significantly affect measurements due to stray capacitive coupling. For example, if a 1 MHz signal is generated on another pin of the chip, then CHLEN should not be 1 microsecond. For the QMatrix method, burst and capture lengths are set for each (X,Y) pair by writing the desired length values to the MBLEN register. The write must be done before each X line can start its acquisition and is indicated by the status bit MBLREQ in the Status Register (SR). A DMA handshake interface is also connected to this status bit to reduce CPU overhead during QMatrix acquisitions. Four burst lengths (BURST0..3) can be written at one time into the MBLEN register. If the current configuration uses Y lines larger than Y3 the register has to be written a second time. The first write to MBLEN specifies the burst length for Y lines 0 to 3 in the BURST0 to BURST3 fields, respectively. The second write specifies the burst length for Y lines 4 to 7 in fields BURST0 to BURST3, respectively, and so on. 777 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The Y and YK pins remain clamped to ground apart from the specified number of burst pulses, when charge is transferred and captured into the sampling capacitor. 31.6.3 Capacitive Count Acquisition For the QMatrix, QTouch group A, and QTouch group B types of acquisition, the module acquires count values from the sensors, buffers them, and makes them available for reading in the ACOUNT register. Further processing of the count values must be performed by the CPU. When the module performs QMatrix acquisition using multiple Y lines, it starts the capture for each Y line at the appropriate time in the burst sequence so that all captures finish simultaneously. For example, suppose that an acquisition is performed on Y0 and Y1 with BURST0=53 and BURST1=60. The module will first toggle the X line 7 times while capturing on Y1 while Y0 and YK0 are clamped to ground. The module will then toggle the X line 53 times while capturing on both Y1 and Y0. 31.6.4 Autonomous QTouch and DMATouch For autonomous QTouch and DMATouch, a complete detection algorithm is implemented within the CAT module. The additional parameters needed to control the detection algorithm must be specified by the user in the ATCFG2 and ATCFG3 registers. Autonomous QTouch and DMATouch sensitivity and out-of-touch sensitivity can be adjusted with the SENSE and OUTSENS fields, respectively, in ATCFG2. Each field accepts values from one to 255 where 255 is the least sensitive setting. The value in the OUTSENS field should be smaller than the value in the SENSE field. To avoid false positives a detect integration filtering technique can be used. The number of successive detects required is specified in the FILTER field of the ATCFG2 register. To compensate for changes in capacitance the CAT can recalibrate the autonomous QTouch sensor periodically. The timing of this calibration is done with the NDRIFT and PDRIFT fields in the Configuration register, ATCFG3. It is recommended that the PDRIFT value is smaller than the NDRIFT value. The autonomous QTouch sensor and DMATouch sensors will also recalibrate if the count value goes too far positive beyond a threshold. This positive recalibration threshold is specified by the PTHR field in the ATCFG3 register. The following block diagram shows the sequence of acquisition and processing operations used by the CAT module. The AISR written bit is internal and not visible in the user interface. 778 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 31-4. CAT Acquisition and Processing Sequence 31.6.5 Spread Spectrum Sensor Drive To reduce electromagnetic compatibility issues, the capacitive sensors can be driven with a spread spectrum signal. To enable spread spectrum drive for a specific acquisition type, the user must write a one to the SPREAD bit in the appropriate Configuration Register 1 (MGCFG1, ATCFG1, TGACFG1, or TGBCFG1). During spread spectrum operation, the length of each pulse within a burst is varied in a deterministic pattern, so that the exact same burst pattern is used for a specific burst length. The maximum spread is determined by the MAXDEV field in the Spread Spectrum Configuration Register (SSCFG) register. The prescaler divisor is varied in a sawtooth pattern from (2(DIV+1))-MAXDEV to (2(DIV+1))+MAXDEV and then back to (2(DIV+1))-MAXDEV. For example, if DIV is 2 and MAXDEV is 3, the prescaler divisor will have the following sequence: 6, 7, 8, Idle Acquire autonomous touch count Acquire counts Update autonomous touch detection algorithm Wait for all acquired counts to be transferred AISR written flag set? No Yes Clear AISR written flag No Yes Autonomous touch enabled (ATEN)? 779 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 9, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 3, 4, etc. MAXDEV must not exceed the value of (2(DIV+1)), or undefined behavior will occur. 31.6.6 Synchronization To prevent interference from the 50 or 60 Hz mains line the CAT can trigger acquisition on the SYNC signal. The SYNC signal should be derived from the mains line. The acquisition will trigger on a falling edge of this signal. To enable synchronization for a specific acquisition type, the user must write a one to the SYNC bit in the appropriate Configuration Register 1 (MGCFG1, ATCFG1, TGACFG1, or TGBCFG1). For QMatrix acquisition, all X lines must be sampled at a specific phase of the noise signal for the synchronization to be effective. This can be accomplished by the synchronization timer, which is enabled by writing a non-zero value to the SYNCTIM field in the MGCFG2 register. This ensures that the start of the acquisition of each X line is spaced at regular intervals, defined by the SYNCTIM field. 31.6.7 Resistive Drive By default, the CAT pins are driven with normal I/O drive properties. Some of the CSA and CSB pins can optionally drive with a 1k output resistance for improved EMC. The pins that have this capability are listed in the Module Configuration section. 31.6.8 Discharge Current Sources The device integrates discharge current sources, which can be used to discharge the sampling capacitors during the QMatrix measurement phase. The discharge current sources are enabled by writing the GLEN bit in the Discharge Current Source (DICS) register to one. This enables an internal reference voltage, which can be either the internal 1.1V band gap voltage or VDDIO/3, as selected by the INTVREFSEL bit in the DICS register. If the DICS.INTREFSEL bit is one, the reference voltage is applied across an internal resistor, Rint. Otherwise, the voltage is applied to the DIS pin, and an external reference resistor must be connected between DIS and ground. The nominal discharge current is given by the following formula, where Vref is the reference voltage, Rref is the value of the reference resistor, trim is the value written to the DICS.TRIM field, and k is a constant of proportionality: I = (Vref/Rref)*(1+(k*trim)) The values for the internal reference resistor, Rint, and the constant, k, may be found in the Electrical Characteristics section. The nominal discharge current may be programmed between 2 and 20 µA. The reference current can be fine-tuned by adjusting the trim value in the DICS.TRIM field. The reference current is mirrored to each Y-pin if the corresponding bit is written to one in the DICS.SOURCES field. 31.6.9 Voltage Divider Enable (VDIVEN) Capability In many QMatrix applications, the sense capacitors will be charged to 50 mV or more and the negative reference pin (ACREFN) of the analog comparators can be tied directly to ground. In that case, the relatively small input offset voltage of the comparators will not cause acquisition problems. However, in certain specialized QMatrix applications such as interpolated touch screens, it may be desirable for the sense capacitors to be charged to less than 25 mV. When such small voltages are used on the sense capacitors, the input offset voltage of the comparators becomes an issue and can cause QMatrix acquisition problems. 780 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Problems with QMatrix acquisition of small sense capacitor voltages can be solved by connecting the negative reference pin (ACREFN) to a voltage divider that produces a small positive voltage (20 mV, typically) to cancel any negative input offset voltage. With a 3.3V supply, recommended values for the voltage divider are Ra (resistor from positive supply to ACREFN) of 8200 ohm and Rb (resistor from ACREFN to ground) of 50 ohm. These recommended values will produce 20 mV on the ACREFN pin, which should generally be enough to compensate for the worst-case negative input offset of the analog comparators. Unfortunately, such a voltage divider constantly draws a small current from the power supply, reducing battery life in portable applications. In order to prevent this constant power drain, the CAT module provides a voltage divider enable pin (VDIVEN) that can be used for driving the voltage divider. The VDIVEN pin provides power to the voltage divider only when the comparators are actually performing QMatrix comparisons. When the comparators are inactive, the VDIVEN output is zero. This minimizes the power consumed by the voltage divider. 781 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 31.7 User Interface Table 31-3.

When multiple acquired count values are read from a QTouch acquisition, the Y field will always be 0 and the SPORX value will increase monotonically. For example, suppose a QTouch acquisition is performed using sensor pairs SP1, SP4, and SP9. The first count read will have SPORX=1, the second read will have SPORX=4, and the third read will have SPORX=9. When multiple acquired count values are read from a QMatrix acquisition, the SPORX value will stay the same while Y increases monotonically through all Y values in the group. Then SPORX will increase to the next X value in the group. For example, a QMatrix acquisition with X=2,3 and Y=4,7 would provide count values in the following order: X=2 and Y=4, then X=2 and Y=7, then X=3 and Y=4, and finally X=3 and Y=7. 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 Y 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 SPORX 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 COUNT[15:8] 76543210 COUNT[7:0] 803 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 31.7.20 Matrix Burst Length Register Name: MBLEN Access Type: Write-only Offset: 0x58 Reset Value: - • BURSTx: Burst Length x For QMatrix sensors, specifies how many times the switching sequence should be repeated before acquisition begins for each channel. Each count in the BURSTx field specifies 1 repeat of the switching sequence, so the actual burst length will be BURST. Before doing a QMatrix acquisition on one X line this register has to be written with the burst values for the current XY pairs. For each X line this register needs to be programmed with all the Y values. If Y values larger than 3 are used the register has to be written several times in order to specify all burst lengths.

Some of the CSA and CSB pins can optionally drive with a 1k output resistance for improved EMC. To enable resistive drive on a pin, the user must write a one to the corresponding bit in the CSA Resistor Control Register (CSARES) or CSB Resistor Control Register (CSBRES) register. Table 31-4.

Glue Logic Controller (GLOC) Rev: 1.0.0.0 32.1 Features • Glue logic for general purpose PCB design • Programmable lookup table • Up to four inputs supported per lookup table • Optional filtering of output 32.2 Overview The Glue Logic Controller (GLOC) contains programmable logic which can be connected to the device pins. This allows the user to eliminate logic gates for simple glue logic functions on the PCB. The GLOC consists of a number of lookup table (LUT) units. Each LUT can generate an output as a user programmable logic expression with four inputs. Inputs can be individually masked. The output can be combinatorially generated from the inputs, or filtered to remove spikes. 32.3 Block Diagram Figure 32-1. GLOC Block Diagram PERIPHERAL BUS TRUTH FILTER OUT[0] ... OUT[n] FILTEN IN[3:0] … IN[(4n+3):4n] AEN CLK_GLOC GCLK 818 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 32.4 I/O Lines Description Each LUT have 4 inputs and one output. The inputs and outputs for the LUTs are mapped sequentially to the inputs and outputs. This means that LUT0 is connected to IN0 to IN3 and OUT0. LUT1 is connected to IN4 to IN7 and OUT1. In general, LUTn is connected to IN[4n] to IN[4n+3] and OUTn. 32.5 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 32.5.1 I/O Lines The pins used for interfacing the GLOC may be multiplexed with I/O Controller lines. The programmer must first program the I/O Controller to assign the desired GLOC pins to their peripheral function. If I/O lines of the GLOC are not used by the application, they can be used for other purposes by the I/O Controller. It is only required to enable the GLOC inputs and outputs actually in use. Pullups for pins configured to be used by the GLOC will be disabled. 32.5.2 Clocks The clock for the GLOC bus interface (CLK_GLOC) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the GLOC before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the module in an undefined state. Additionally, the GLOC depends on a dedicated Generic Clock (GCLK). The GCLK can be set to a wide range of frequencies and clock sources, and must be enabled by the System Control Interface (SCIF) before the GLOC filter can be used. 32.5.3 Debug Operation When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the GLOC continues normal operation. 32.6 Functional Description 32.6.1 Enabling the Lookup Table Inputs Since the inputs to each lookup table (LUT) unit can be multiplexed with other peripherals, each input must be explicitly enabled by writing a one to the corresponding enable bit (AEN) in the corresponding Control Register (CR). If no inputs are enabled, the output OUTn will be the least significant bit in the TRUTHn register. Table 32-1. I/O Lines Description Pin Name Pin Description Type IN0-INm Inputs to lookup tables Input OUT0-OUTn Output from lookup tables Output 819 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 32.6.2 Configuring the Lookup Table The lookup table in each LUT unit can generate any logic expression OUT as a function of up to four inputs, IN[3:0]. The truth table for the expression is written to the TRUTH register for the LUT. Table 32-2 shows the truth table for LUT0. The truth table for LUTn is written to TRUTHn, and the corresponding input and outputs will be IN[4n] to IN[4n+3] and OUTn. 32.6.3 Output Filter By default, the output OUTn is a combinatorial function of the inputs IN[4n] to IN[4n+3]. This may cause some short glitches to occur when the inputs change value. It is also possible to clock the output through a filter to remove glitches. This requires that the corresponding generic clock (GCLK) has been enabled before use. The filter can then be enabled by writing a one to the Filter Enable (FILTEN) bit in CRn. The OUTn output will be delayed by three to four GCLK cycles when the filter is enabled. Table 32-2.

This can be controlled through the aWire UART user interface. This chapter only describes the aWire UART user interface. For a description of the aWire Debug Interface, please see the Programming and Debugging chapter. 33.3 Block Diagram Figure 33-1. aWire Debug Interface Block Diagram UART Reset filter External reset AW_ENABLE RESET_N Baudrate Detector RW SZ ADDR DATA CRC AW CONTROL AW User Interface SAB interface RESET command Power Manager HALT command CPU Flash Controller CHIP_ERASE command aWire Debug Interface PB SAB 827 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 33.4 I/O Lines Description 33.5 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 33.5.1 I/O Lines The pin used by AW is multiplexed with the RESET_N pin. The reset functionality is the default function of this pin. To enable the aWire functionality on the RESET_N pin the user must enable the aWire UART user interface. 33.5.2 Power Management If the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables clocks used by the aWire UART user interface, the aWire UART user interface will stop functioning and resume operation after the system wakes up from sleep mode. 33.5.3 Clocks The aWire UART uses the internal 120 MHz RC oscillator (RC120M) as clock source for its operation. When using the aWire UART user interface RC120M must enabled using the Clock Request Register (see Section 33.6.1). The clock for the aWire UART user interface (CLK_AW) is generated by the Power Manager. This clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled in the Power Manager. It is recommended to disable the aWire UART user interface before disabling the clock, to avoid freezing the aWire UART user interface in an undefined state. 33.5.4 Interrupts The aWire UART user interface interrupt request line is connected to the interrupt controller. Using the aWire UART user interface interrupt requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. 33.5.5 Debug Operation If the AW is used for debugging the aWire UART user interface will not be usable. When an external debugger forces the CPU into debug mode, the aWire UART user interface continues normal operation. If the aWire UART user interface is configured in a way that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during debugging. 33.5.6 External Components The AW needs an external pullup on the RESET_N pin to ensure that the pin is pulled up when the bus is not driven. 33.6 Functional Description The aWire UART user interface can be used as a spare Asynchronous Receiver or Transmitter when AW is not used for debugging. Table 33-1. I/O Lines Description Name Description Type DATA aWire data multiplexed with the RESET_N pin. Input/Output 828 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 33.6.1 How to Initialize The Module To initialize the aWire UART user interface the user must first enable the clock by writing a one to the Clock Enable bit in the Clock Request Register (CLKR.CLKEN) and wait for the Clock Enable bit in the Status Register (SR.CENABLED) to be set. After doing this either receive, transmit or receive with resync must be selected by writing the corresponding value into the Mode field of the Control (CTRL.MODE) Register. Due to the RC120M being asynchronous with the system clock values must be allowed to propagate in the system. During this time the aWire master will set the Busy bit in the Status Register (SR.BUSY). After the SR.BUSY bit is cleared the Baud Rate field in the Baud Rate Register (BRR.BR) can be written with the wanted baudrate ( ) according to the following formula ( is the RC120M clock frequency): After this operation the user must wait until the SR.BUSY is cleared. The interface is now ready to be used. 33.6.2 Basic Asynchronous Receiver Operation The aWire UART user interface must be initialized according to the sequence above, but the CTRL.MODE field must be written to one (Receive mode). When a data byte arrives the aWire UART user interface will indicate this by setting the Data Ready Interrupt bit in the Status Register (SR.DREADYINT). The user must read the Data in the Receive Holding Register (RHR.RXDATA) and clear the Interrupt bit by writing a one to the Data Ready Interrupt Clear bit in the Status Clear Register (SCR.DREADYINT). The interface is now ready to receive another byte. 33.6.3 Basic Asynchronous Transmitter Operation The aWire UART user interface must be initialized according to the sequence above, but the CTRL.MODE field must be written to two (Transmit mode). To transmit a data byte the user must write the data to the Transmit Holding Register (THE.TXDATA). Before the next byte can be written the SR.BUSY must be cleared. 33.6.4 Basic Asynchronous Receiver with Resynchronization By writing three into CTRL.MODE the aWire UART user interface will assume that the first byte it receives is a sync byte (0x55) and set BRR.BR according to this. All subsequent transfers will assume this baudrate, unless BRR.BR is rewritten by the user. To make the aWire UART user interface accept a new sync resynchronization the aWire UART user interface must be disabled by writing zero to CTRL.MODE and then reenable the interface. 33.6.5 Overrun In Receive mode an overrun can occur if the user has not read the previous received data from the RHR.RXDATA when the newest data should be placed there. Such a condition is flagged by setting the Overrun bit in the Status Register (SR.OVERRUN). If SR.OVERRUN is set the newest data received is placed in RHR.RXDATA and the data that was there before is overwritten. f br f aw f br 8f aw BR = ----------- 829 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 33.6.6 Interrupts To make the CPU able to do other things while waiting for the aWire UART user interface to finish its operations the aWire UART user interface supports generating interrupts. All status bits in the Status Register can be used as interrupt sources, except the SR.BUSY and SR.CENABLED bits. To enable an interrupt the user must write a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Register (IER). Upon the next zero to one transition of this SR bit the aWire UART user interface will flag this interrupt to the CPU. To clear the interrupt the user must write a one to the corresponding bit in the Status Clear Register (SCR). Interrupts can be disabled by writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Disable Register (IDR). The interrupt Mask Register (IMR) can be read to check if an interrupt is enabled or disabled. 33.6.7 Using the Peripheral DMA Controller To relieve the CPU of data transfers the aWire UART user interface support using the Peripheral DMA controller. To transmit using the Peripheral DMA Controller do the following: 1. Setup the aWire UART user interface in transmit mode. 2. Setup the Peripheral DMA Controller with buffer address and length, use byte as transfer size. 3. Enable the Peripheral DMA Controller. 4. Wait until the Peripheral DMA Controller is done. To receive using the Peripheral DMA Controller do the following: 1. Setup the aWire UART user interface in receive mode 2. Setup the Peripheral DMA Controller with buffer address and length, use byte as transfer size. 3. Enable the Peripheral DMA Controller. 4.

Programming and Debugging 34.1 Overview The ATUC64/128/256L3/4U supports programming and debugging through two interfaces, JTAG or aWire. JTAG is an industry standard interface and allows boundary scan for PCB testing, as well as daisy-chaining of multiple devices on the PCB. aWire is an Atmel proprietary protocol which offers higher throughput and robust communication, and does not require application pins to be reserved. Either interface provides access to the internal Service Access Bus (SAB), which offers a bridge to the High Speed Bus, giving access to memories and peripherals in the device. By using this bridge to the bus system, the flash and fuses can thus be programmed by accessing the Flash Controller in the same manner as the CPU. The SAB also provides access to the Nexus-compliant On-chip Debug (OCD) system in the device, which gives the user non-intrusive run-time control of the program execution. Additionally, trace information can be output on the Auxiliary (AUX) debug port or buffered in internal RAM for later retrieval by JTAG or aWire. 34.2 Service Access Bus The AVR32 architecture offers a common interface for access to On-chip Debug, programming, and test functions. These are mapped on a common bus called the Service Access Bus (SAB), which is linked to the JTAG and aWire port through a bus master module, which also handles synchronization between the debugger and SAB clocks. When accessing the SAB through the debugger there are no limitations on debugger frequency compared to chip frequency, although there must be an active system clock in order for the SAB accesses to complete. If the system clock is switched off in sleep mode, activity on the debugger will restart the system clock automatically, without waking the device from sleep. Debuggers may optimize the transfer rate by adjusting the frequency in relation to the system clock. This ratio can be measured with debug protocol specific instructions. The Service Access Bus uses 36 address bits to address memory or registers in any of the slaves on the bus. The bus supports sized accesses of bytes (8 bits), halfwords (16 bits), or words (32 bits). All accesses must be aligned to the size of the access, i.e. halfword accesses must have the lowest address bit cleared, and word accesses must have the two lowest address bits cleared. 34.2.1 SAB Address Map The SAB gives the user access to the internal address space and other features through a 36 bits address space. The 4 MSBs identify the slave number, while the 32 LSBs are decoded within the slave’s address space. The SAB slaves are shown in Table 34-1. Table 34-1.

A short description of the security measures are found in the table below. 34.2.2.1 Security measure and control location A security measure is a mechanism to either block or allow SAB access to a certain address or address range. A security measure is enabled or disabled by one or several control signals. This is called the control location for the security measure. These security measures can be used to prevent an end user from reading out the code programmed in the flash, for instance. Below follows a more in depth description of what locations are accessible when the security measures are active. Note: 1.

The user accesses this through an external debug tool which connects to the JTAG or aWire port and the Auxiliary (AUX) port if implemented. The AUX port is primarily used for trace functions, and an aWire- or JTAG-based debugger is sufficient for basic debugging. The debug system is based on the Nexus 2.0 standard, class 2+, which includes: • Basic run-time control • Program breakpoints • Data breakpoints • Program trace • Ownership trace • Data trace In addition to the mandatory Nexus debug features, the ATUC64/128/256L3/4U implements several useful OCD features, such as: • Debug Communication Channel between CPU and debugger • Run-time PC monitoring • CRC checking • NanoTrace • Software Quality Assurance (SQA) support The OCD features are controlled by OCD registers, which can be accessed by the debugger, for instance when the NEXUS_ACCESS JTAG instruction is loaded. The CPU can also access OCD registers directly using mtdr/mfdr instructions in any privileged mode. The OCD registers are implemented based on the recommendations in the Nexus 2.0 standard, and are detailed in the AVR32UC Technical Reference Manual. 34.3.3 I/O Lines Description The OCD AUX trace port contains a number of pins, as shown in Table 34-6 on page 848. These are multiplexed with I/O Controller lines, and must explicitly be enabled by writing OCD registers before the debug session starts. The AUX port is mapped to two different locations, 848 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U selectable by OCD Registers, minimizing the chance that the AUX port will need to be shared with an application. 34.3.4 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below. 34.3.4.1 Power Management The OCD clock operates independently of the CPU clock. If enabled in the Power Manager, the OCD clock (CLK_OCD) will continue running even if the CPU enters a sleep mode that disables the CPU clock. 34.3.4.2 Clocks The OCD has a clock (CLK_OCD) running synchronously with the CPU clock. This clock is generated by the Power Manager. The clock is enabled at reset, and can be disabled by writing to the Power Manager. 34.3.4.3 Interrupt The OCD system interrupt request lines are connected to the interrupt controller. Using the OCD interrupts requires the interrupt controller to be programmed first. Table 34-6.

On-Chip Debug Block Diagram 34.3.6 SAB-based Debug Features A debugger can control all OCD features by writing OCD registers over the SAB interface. Many of these do not depend on output on the AUX port, allowing an aWire- or JTAG-based debugger to be used. A JTAG-based debugger should connect to the device through a standard 10-pin IDC connector as described in the AVR32UC Technical Reference Manual. An aWire-based debugger should connect to the device through the RESET_N pin.

JTAG-based Debugger Figure 34-3. aWire-based Debugger 34.3.6.1 Debug Communication Channel The Debug Communication Channel (DCC) consists of a pair OCD registers with associated handshake logic, accessible to both CPU and debugger. The registers can be used to exchange data between the CPU and the debugmaster, both runtime as well as in debug mode. 32-bit AVR JTAG-based debug tool PC JTAG 10-pin IDC 32-bit AVR aWire-based debug tool PC aWire 851 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The OCD system can generate an interrupt to the CPU when DCCPU is read and when DCEMU is written. This enables the user to build a custum debug protocol using only these registers. The DCCPU and DCEMU registers are available even when the security bit in the flash is active. For more information refer to the AVR32UC Technical Reference Manual. 34.3.6.2 Breakpoints One of the most fundamental debug features is the ability to halt the CPU, to examine registers and the state of the system. This is accomplished by breakpoints, of which many types are available: • Unconditional breakpoints are set by writing OCD registers by the debugger, halting the CPU immediately. • Program breakpoints halt the CPU when a specific address in the program is executed. • Data breakpoints halt the CPU when a specific memory address is read or written, allowing variables to be watched. • Software breakpoints halt the CPU when the breakpoint instruction is executed. When a breakpoint triggers, the CPU enters debug mode, and the D bit in the status register is set. This is a privileged mode with dedicated return address and return status registers. All privileged instructions are permitted. Debug mode can be entered as either OCD Mode, running instructions from the debugger, or Monitor Mode, running instructions from program memory. 34.3.6.3 OCD Mode When a breakpoint triggers, the CPU enters OCD mode, and instructions are fetched from the Debug Instruction OCD register. Each time this register is written by the debugger, the instruction is executed, allowing the debugger to execute CPU instructions directly. The debug master can e.g. read out the register file by issuing mtdr instructions to the CPU, writing each register to the Debug Communication Channel OCD registers. 34.3.6.4 Monitor Mode Since the OCD registers are directly accessible by the CPU, it is possible to build a softwarebased debugger that runs on the CPU itself. Setting the Monitor Mode bit in the Development Control register causes the CPU to enter Monitor Mode instead of OCD mode when a breakpoint triggers. Monitor Mode is similar to OCD mode, except that instructions are fetched from the debug exception vector in regular program memory, instead of issued by the debug master. 34.3.6.5 Program Counter Monitoring Normally, the CPU would need to be halted for a debugger to examine the current PC value. However, the ATUC64/128/256L3/4U also proves a Debug Program Counter OCD register, where the debugger can continuously read the current PC without affecting the CPU. This allows the debugger to generate a simple statistic of the time spent in various areas of the code, easing code optimization. 34.3.7 Memory Service Unit The Memory Service Unit (MSU) is a block dedicated to test and debug functionality. It is controlled through a dedicated set of registers addressed through the Service Access Bus. 852 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 34.3.7.1 Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) The MSU can be used to automatically calculate the CRC of a block of data in memory. The MSU will then read out each word in the specified memory block and report the CRC32-value in an MSU register. 34.3.7.2 NanoTrace The MSU additionally supports NanoTrace. This is a 32-bit AVR-specific feature, in which trace data is output to memory instead of the AUX port. This allows the trace data to be extracted by the debugger through the SAB, enabling trace features for aWire- or JTAG-based debuggers. The user must write MSU registers to configure the address and size of the memory block to be used for NanoTrace. The NanoTrace buffer can be anywhere in the physical address range, including internal and external RAM, through an EBI, if present. This area may not be used by the application running on the CPU. 34.3.8 AUX-based Debug Features Utilizing the Auxiliary (AUX) port gives access to a wide range of advanced debug features. Of prime importance are the trace features, which allow an external debugger to receive continuous information on the program execution in the CPU. Additionally, Event In and Event Out pins allow external events to be correlated with the program flow. Debug tools utilizing the AUX port should connect to the device through a Nexus-compliant Mictor-38 connector, as described in the AVR32UC Technical Reference manual. This connector includes the JTAG signals and the RESET_N pin, giving full access to the programming and debug features in the device. 853 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 34-4. AUX+JTAG Based Debugger 34.3.8.1 Trace Operation Trace features are enabled by writing OCD registers by the debugger. The OCD extracts the trace information from the CPU, compresses this information and formats it into variable-length messages according to the Nexus standard. The messages are buffered in a 16-frame transmit queue, and are output on the AUX port one frame at a time. The trace features can be configured to be very selective, to reduce the bandwidth on the AUX port. In case the transmit queue overflows, error messages are produced to indicate loss of data. The transmit queue module can optionally be configured to halt the CPU when an overflow occurs, to prevent the loss of messages, at the expense of longer run-time for the program. 34.3.8.2 Program Trace Program trace allows the debugger to continuously monitor the program execution in the CPU. Program trace messages are generated for every branch in the program, and contains compressed information, which allows the debugger to correlate the message with the source code to identify the branch instruction and target address. 34.3.8.3 Data Trace Data trace outputs a message every time a specific location is read or written. The message contains information about the type (read/write) and size of the access, as well as the address and data of the accessed location. The ATUC64/128/256L3/4U contains two data trace chanAVR32 AUX+JTAG debu g tool JTAG AUX h ig h s p e e d M ic to r3 8 T ra ce b u ffe r P C 854 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U nels, each of which are controlled by a pair of OCD registers which determine the range of addresses (or single address) which should produce data trace messages. 34.3.8.4 Ownership Trace Program and data trace operate on virtual addresses. In cases where an operating system runs several processes in overlapping virtual memory segments, the Ownership Trace feature can be used to identify the process switch. When the O/S activates a process, it will write the process ID number to an OCD register, which produces an Ownership Trace Message, allowing the debugger to switch context for the subsequent program and data trace messages. As the use of this feature depends on the software running on the CPU, it can also be used to extract other types of information from the system. 34.3.8.5 Watchpoint Messages The breakpoint modules normally used to generate program and data breakpoints can also be used to generate Watchpoint messages, allowing a debugger to monitor program and data events without halting the CPU. Watchpoints can be enabled independently of breakpoints, so a breakpoint module can optionally halt the CPU when the trigger condition occurs. Data trace modules can also be configured to produce watchpoint messages instead of regular data trace messages. 34.3.8.6 Event In and Event Out Pins The AUX port also contains an Event In pin (EVTI_N) and an Event Out pin (EVTO_N). EVTI_N can be used to trigger a breakpoint when an external event occurs. It can also be used to trigger specific program and data trace synchronization messages, allowing an external event to be correlated to the program flow. When the CPU enters debug mode, a Debug Status message is transmitted on the trace port. All trace messages can be timestamped when they are received by the debug tool. However, due to the latency of the transmit queue buffering, the timestamp will not be 100% accurate. To improve this, EVTO_N can toggle every time a message is inserted into the transmit queue, allowing trace messages to be timestamped precisely. EVTO_N can also toggle when a breakpoint module triggers, or when the CPU enters debug mode, for any reason. This can be used to measure precisely when the respective internal event occurs. 34.3.8.7 Software Quality Analysis (SQA) Software Quality Analysis (SQA) deals with two important issues regarding embedded software development. Code coverage involves identifying untested parts of the embedded code, to improve test procedures and thus the quality of the released software. Performance analysis allows the developer to precisely quantify the time spent in various parts of the code, allowing bottlenecks to be identified and optimized. Program trace must be used to accomplish these tasks without instrumenting (altering) the code to be examined. However, traditional program trace cannot reconstruct the current PC value without correlating the trace information with the source code, which cannot be done on-the-fly. This limits program trace to a relatively short time segment, determined by the size of the trace buffer in the debug tool. The OCD system in ATUC64/128/256L3/4U extends program trace with SQA capabilities, allowing the debug tool to reconstruct the PC value on-the-fly. Code coverage and performance analysis can thus be reported for an unlimited execution sequence. 855 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 34.4 JTAG and Boundary-scan (JTAG) Rev: 2.2.2.4 34.4.1 Features • IEEE1149.1 compliant JTAG Interface • Boundary-scan Chain for board-level testing • Direct memory access and programming capabilities through JTAG Interface 34.4.2 Overview The JTAG Interface offers a four pin programming and debug solution, including boundary-scan support for board-level testing. Figure 34-5 on page 856 shows how the JTAG is connected in an 32-bit AVR device. The TAP Controller is a state machine controlled by the TCK and TMS signals. The TAP Controller selects either the JTAG Instruction Register or one of several Data Registers as the scan chain (shift register) between the TDI-input and TDO-output. The Instruction Register holds JTAG instructions controlling the behavior of a Data Register. The Device Identification Register, Bypass Register, and the boundary-scan chain are the Data Registers used for board-level testing. The Reset Register can be used to keep the device reset during test or programming. The Service Access Bus (SAB) interface contains address and data registers for the Service Access Bus, which gives access to On-Chip Debug, programming, and other functions in the device. The SAB offers several modes of access to the address and data registers, as described in Section 34.4.11. Section 34.5 lists the supported JTAG instructions, with references to the description in this document. 856 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 34.4.3 Block Diagram Figure 34-5. JTAG and Boundary-scan Access 34.4.4 I/O Lines Description 34.4.5 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below.

TMS TDO TDI TMS TCK TCK Instruction register scan enable SAB Internal I/O lines JTAG TMS TDI TDO TCK 857 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 34.4.5.1 I/O Lines The TMS, TDI, TDO, and TCK pins are multiplexed with I/O lines. When the JTAG is used the associated pins must be enabled. To enable the JTAG pins, refer to Section 34.4.7. While using the multiplexed JTAG lines all normal peripheral activity on these lines is disabled. The user must make sure that no external peripheral is blocking the JTAG lines while debugging. 34.4.5.2 Power Management When an instruction that accesses the SAB is loaded in the instruction register, before entering a sleep mode, the system clocks are not switched off to allow debugging in sleep modes. This can lead to a program behaving differently when debugging. 34.4.5.3 Clocks The JTAG Interface uses the external TCK pin as clock source. This clock must be provided by the JTAG master. Instructions that use the SAB bus requires the internal main clock to be running. 34.4.6 JTAG Interface The JTAG Interface is accessed through the dedicated JTAG pins shown in Table 34-7 on page 856. The TMS control line navigates the TAP controller, as shown in Figure 34-6 on page 858. The TAP controller manages the serial access to the JTAG Instruction and Data registers. Data is scanned into the selected instruction or data register on TDI, and out of the register on TDO, in the Shift-IR and Shift-DR states, respectively. The LSB is shifted in and out first. TDO is highZ in other states than Shift-IR and Shift-DR. The device implements a 5-bit Instruction Register (IR). A number of public JTAG instructions defined by the JTAG standard are supported, as described in Section 34.5.2, as well as a number of 32-bit AVR-specific private JTAG instructions described in Section 34.5.3. Each instruction selects a specific data register for the Shift-DR path, as described for each instruction. 858 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Figure 34-6.

After enabling the JTAG interface the halt bit is set automatically to prevent the system from running code after the interface is enabled. To make the CPU run again set halt to zero using the HALT command.. JTAG operation when RESET_N is pulled low is not possible. Independent of the initial state of the TAP Controller, the Test-Logic-Reset state can always be entered by holding TMS high for 5 TCK clock periods. This sequence should always be applied at the start of a JTAG session and after enabling the JTAG pins to bring the TAP Controller into a defined state before applying JTAG commands. Applying a 0 on TMS for 1 TCK period brings the TAP Controller to the Run-Test/Idle state, which is the starting point for JTAG operations. 34.4.8 How to disable the module To disable the JTAG pins the TCK pin must be held high while RESET_N pin is released. 34.4.9 Typical Sequence Assuming Run-Test/Idle is the present state, a typical scenario for using the JTAG Interface follows. 34.4.9.1 Scanning in JTAG Instruction At the TMS input, apply the sequence 1, 1, 0, 0 at the rising edges of TCK to enter the Shift Instruction Register (Shift-IR) state. While in this state, shift the 5 bits of the JTAG instructions into the JTAG instruction register from the TDI input at the rising edge of TCK. During shifting, the JTAG outputs status bits on TDO, refer to Section 34.5 for a description of these. The TMS input must be held low during input of the 4 LSBs in order to remain in the Shift-IR state. The JTAG Instruction selects a particular Data Register as path between TDI and TDO and controls the circuitry surrounding the selected Data Register. Apply the TMS sequence 1, 1, 0 to re-enter the Run-Test/Idle state. The instruction is latched onto the parallel output from the shift register path in the Update-IR state. The Exit-IR, Pause-IR, and Exit2-IR states are only used for navigating the state machine. Figure 34-7. Scanning in JTAG Instruction 34.4.9.2 Scanning in/out Data At the TMS input, apply the sequence 1, 0, 0 at the rising edges of TCK to enter the Shift Data Register (Shift-DR) state. While in this state, upload the selected Data Register (selected by the present JTAG instruction in the JTAG Instruction Register) from the TDI input at the rising edge TCK TAP State TLR RTI SelDR SelIR CapIR ShIR Ex1IR UpdIR RTI TMS TDI Instruction TDO ImplDefined 860 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U of TCK. In order to remain in the Shift-DR state, the TMS input must be held low. While the Data Register is shifted in from the TDI pin, the parallel inputs to the Data Register captured in the Capture-DR state is shifted out on the TDO pin. Apply the TMS sequence 1, 1, 0 to re-enter the Run-Test/Idle state. If the selected Data Register has a latched parallel-output, the latching takes place in the Update-DR state. The Exit-DR, Pause-DR, and Exit2-DR states are only used for navigating the state machine. As shown in the state diagram, the Run-Test/Idle state need not be entered between selecting JTAG instruction and using Data Registers. 34.4.10 Boundary-scan The boundary-scan chain has the capability of driving and observing the logic levels on the digital I/O pins, as well as the boundary between digital and analog logic for analog circuitry having off-chip connections. At system level, all ICs having JTAG capabilities are connected serially by the TDI/TDO signals to form a long shift register. An external controller sets up the devices to drive values at their output pins, and observe the input values received from other devices. The controller compares the received data with the expected result. In this way, boundary-scan provides a mechanism for testing interconnections and integrity of components on Printed Circuits Boards by using the 4 TAP signals only. The four IEEE 1149.1 defined mandatory JTAG instructions IDCODE, BYPASS, SAMPLE/PRELOAD, and EXTEST can be used for testing the Printed Circuit Board. Initial scanning of the data register path will show the ID-code of the device, since IDCODE is the default JTAG instruction. It may be desirable to have the 32-bit AVR device in reset during test mode. If not reset, inputs to the device may be determined by the scan operations, and the internal software may be in an undetermined state when exiting the test mode. If needed, the BYPASS instruction can be issued to make the shortest possible scan chain through the device. The device can be set in the reset state either by pulling the external RESETn pin low, or issuing the AVR_RESET instruction with appropriate setting of the Reset Data Register. The EXTEST instruction is used for sampling external pins and loading output pins with data. The data from the output latch will be driven out on the pins as soon as the EXTEST instruction is loaded into the JTAG IR-register. Therefore, the SAMPLE/PRELOAD should also be used for setting initial values to the scan ring, to avoid damaging the board when issuing the EXTEST instruction for the first time. SAMPLE/PRELOAD can also be used for taking a snapshot of the external pins during normal operation of the part. When using the JTAG Interface for boundary-scan, the JTAG TCK clock is independent of the internal chip clock. The internal chip clock is not required to run during boundary-scan operations. NOTE: For pins connected to 5V lines care should be taken to not drive the pins to a logic one using boundary-scan, as this will create a current flowing from the 3,3V driver to the 5V pull-up on the line. Optionally a series resistor can be added between the line and the pin to reduce the current. Details about the boundary-scan chain can be found in the BSDL file for the device. This can be found on the Atmel website. 34.4.11 Service Access Bus The AVR32 architecture offers a common interface for access to On-Chip Debug, programming, and test functions. These are mapped on a common bus called the Service Access Bus (SAB), 861 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U which is linked to the JTAG through a bus master module, which also handles synchronization between the TCK and SAB clocks. For more information about the SAB and a list of SAB slaves see the Service Access Bus chapter. 34.4.11.1 SAB Address Mode The MEMORY_SIZED_ACCESS instruction allows a sized read or write to any 36-bit address on the bus. MEMORY_WORD_ACCESS is a shorthand instruction for 32-bit accesses to any 36-bit address, while the NEXUS_ACCESS instruction is a Nexus-compliant shorthand instruction for accessing the 32-bit OCD registers in the 7-bit address space reserved for these. These instructions require two passes through the Shift-DR TAP state: one for the address and control information, and one for data. 34.4.11.2 Block Transfer To increase the transfer rate, consecutive memory accesses can be accomplished by the MEMORY_BLOCK_ACCESS instruction, which only requires a single pass through Shift-DR for data transfer only. The address is automatically incremented according to the size of the last SAB transfer. 34.4.11.3 Canceling a SAB Access It is possible to abort an ongoing SAB access by the CANCEL_ACCESS instruction, to avoid hanging the bus due to an extremely slow slave. 34.4.11.4 Busy Reporting As the time taken to perform an access may vary depending on system activity and current chip frequency, all the SAB access JTAG instructions can return a busy indicator. This indicates whether a delay needs to be inserted, or an operation needs to be repeated in order to be successful. If a new access is requested while the SAB is busy, the request is ignored. The SAB becomes busy when: • Entering Update-DR in the address phase of any read operation, e.g., after scanning in a NEXUS_ACCESS address with the read bit set. • Entering Update-DR in the data phase of any write operation, e.g., after scanning in data for a NEXUS_ACCESS write. • Entering Update-DR during a MEMORY_BLOCK_ACCESS. • Entering Update-DR after scanning in a counter value for SYNC. • Entering Update-IR after scanning in a MEMORY_BLOCK_ACCESS if the previous access was a read and data was scanned after scanning the address. The SAB becomes ready again when: • A read or write operation completes. • A SYNC countdown completed. • A operation is cancelled by the CANCEL_ACCESS instruction. What to do if the busy bit is set: • During Shift-IR: The new instruction is selected, but the previous operation has not yet completed and will continue (unless the new instruction is CANCEL_ACCESS). You may 862 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U continue shifting the same instruction until the busy bit clears, or start shifting data. If shifting data, you must be prepared that the data shift may also report busy. • During Shift-DR of an address: The new address is ignored. The SAB stays in address mode, so no data must be shifted. Repeat the address until the busy bit clears. • During Shift-DR of read data: The read data is invalid. The SAB stays in data mode. Repeat scanning until the busy bit clears. • During Shift-DR of write data: The write data is ignored. The SAB stays in data mode. Repeat scanning until the busy bit clears. 34.4.11.5 Error Reporting The Service Access Bus may not be able to complete all accesses as requested. This may be because the address is invalid, the addressed area is read-only or cannot handle byte/halfword accesses, or because the chip is set in a protected mode where only limited accesses are allowed. The error bit is updated when an access completes, and is cleared when a new access starts. What to do if the error bit is set: • During Shift-IR: The new instruction is selected. The last operation performed using the old instruction did not complete successfully. • During Shift-DR of an address: The previous operation failed. The new address is accepted. If the read bit is set, a read operation is started. • During Shift-DR of read data: The read operation failed, and the read data is invalid. • During Shift-DR of write data: The previous write operation failed. The new data is accepted and a write operation started. This should only occur during block writes or stream writes. No error can occur between scanning a write address and the following write data. • While polling with CANCEL_ACCESS: The previous access was cancelled. It may or may not have actually completed. • After power-up: The error bit is set after power up, but there has been no previous SAB instruction so this error can be discarded. 34.4.11.6 Protected Reporting A protected status may be reported during Shift-IR or Shift-DR. This indicates that the security bit in the Flash Controller is set and that the chip is locked for access, according to Section 34.5.1. The protected state is reported when: • The Flash Controller is under reset. This can be due to the AVR_RESET command or the RESET_N line. • The Flash Controller has not read the security bit from the flash yet (This will take a a few ms). Happens after the Flash Controller reset has been released. • The security bit in the Flash Controller is set. What to do if the protected bit is set: • Release all active AVR_RESET domains, if any. • Release the RESET_N line. • Wait a few ms for the security bit to clear. It can be set temporarily due to a reset. 863 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U • Perform a CHIP_ERASE to clear the security bit. NOTE: This will erase all the contents of the non-volatile memory. 34.5 JTAG Instruction Summary The implemented JTAG instructions in the 32-bit AVR are shown in the table below. 34.5.1 Security Restrictions When the security fuse in the Flash is programmed, the following JTAG instructions are restricted: • NEXUS_ACCESS • MEMORY_WORD_ACCESS • MEMORY_BLOCK_ACCESS • MEMORY_SIZED_ACCESS For description of what memory locations remain accessible, please refer to the SAB address map. Full access to these instructions is re-enabled when the security fuse is erased by the CHIP_ERASE JTAG instruction. Table 34-8.

Other security mechanisms can also restrict these functions. If such mechanisms are present they are listed in the SAB address map section. 34.5.1.1 Notation Table 34-10 on page 864 shows bit patterns to be shifted in a format like "peb01". Each character corresponds to one bit, and eight bits are grouped together for readability. The least significantbit is always shifted first, and the most significant bit shifted last. The symbols used are shown in Table 34-9. In many cases, it is not required to shift all bits through the data register. Bit patterns are shown using the full width of the shift register, but the suggested or required bits are emphasized using bold text. I.e. given the pattern "aaaaaaar xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xx", the shift register is 34 bits, but the test or debug unit may choose to shift only 8 bits "aaaaaaar". The following describes how to interpret the fields in the instruction description tables: Table 34-9. Symbol Description Symbol Description 0 Constant low value - always reads as zero. 1 Constant high value - always reads as one. a An address bit - always scanned with the least significant bit first b A busy bit. Reads as one if the SAB was busy, or zero if it was not. See Section 34.4.11.4 for details on how the busy reporting works. d A data bit - always scanned with the least significant bit first. e An error bit. Reads as one if an error occurred, or zero if not. See Section 34.4.11.5 for details on how the error reporting works. p The chip protected bit. Some devices may be set in a protected state where access to chip internals are severely restricted. See the documentation for the specific device for details. On devices without this possibility, this bit always reads as zero. r A direction bit. Set to one to request a read, set to zero to request a write. s A size bit. The size encoding is described where used. x A don’t care bit. Any value can be shifted in, and output data should be ignored. Table 34-10. Instruction Description Instruction Description IR input value Shows the bit pattern to shift into IR in the Shift-IR state in order to select this instruction. The pattern is show both in binary and in hexadecimal form for convenience. Example: 10000 (0x10) IR output value Shows the bit pattern shifted out of IR in the Shift-IR state when this instruction is active. Example: peb01 865 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 34.5.2 Public JTAG Instructions The JTAG standard defines a number of public JTAG instructions. These instructions are described in the sections below. 34.5.2.1 IDCODE This instruction selects the 32 bit Device Identification register (DID) as Data Register. The DID register consists of a version number, a device number, and the manufacturer code chosen by JEDEC. This is the default instruction after a JTAG reset.

The boundary-scan chain is selected as Data Register. Starting in Run-Test/Idle, the Device Identification register is accessed in the following way: DR Size Shows the number of bits in the data register chain when this instruction is active. Example: 34 bits DR input value Shows which bit pattern to shift into the data register in the Shift-DR state when this instruction is active. Multiple such lines may exist, e.g., to distinguish between reads and writes. Example: aaaaaaar xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xx DR output value Shows the bit pattern shifted out of the data register in the Shift-DR state when this instruction is active. Multiple such lines may exist, e.g., to distinguish between reads and writes. Example: xx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxeb Table 34-10.

Each instruction is briefly described in text, with details following in table form. 34.5.3.1 NEXUS_ACCESS This instruction allows Nexus-compliant access to the On-Chip Debug registers through the SAB. The 7-bit register index, a read/write control bit, and the 32-bit data is accessed through the JTAG port. The data register is alternately interpreted by the SAB as an address register and a data register. The SAB starts in address mode after the NEXUS_ACCESS instruction is selected, and toggles between address and data mode each time a data scan completes with the busy bit cleared. NOTE: The polarity of the direction bit is inverse of the Nexus standard. Table 34-15.

In Shift-DR: For a read operation, scan out the contents of the addressed register. For a write operation, scan in the new contents of the register. 9. Return to Run-Test/Idle. For any operation, the full 7 bits of the address must be provided. For write operations, 32 data bits must be provided, or the result will be undefined. For read operations, shifting may be terminated once the required number of bits have been acquired. 34.5.3.2 MEMORY_SERVICE This instruction allows access to registers in an optional Memory Service Unit. The 7-bit register index, a read/write control bit, and the 32-bit data is accessed through the JTAG port. The data register is alternately interpreted by the SAB as an address register and a data register. The SAB starts in address mode after the MEMORY_SERVICE instruction is selected, and toggles between address and data mode each time a data scan completes with the busy bit cleared. Starting in Run-Test/Idle, Memory Service registers are accessed in the following way: 1. Select the IR Scan path. 2. In Capture-IR: The IR output value is latched into the shift register. 3. In Shift-IR: The instruction register is shifted by the TCK input. 4. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 5. Select the DR Scan path. 6.

Data is accessed through a 36-bit byte index, a 2-bit size, a direction bit, and 8, 16, or 32 bits of data. Not all units mapped on the SAB bus may support all sizes of accesses, e.g., some may only support word accesses. The data register is alternately interpreted by the SAB as an address register and a data register. The SAB starts in address mode after the MEMORY_SIZED_ACCESS instruction is selected, and toggles between address and data mode each time a data scan completes with the busy bit cleared. Table 34-18.

Data is accessed through the 34 MSB of the SAB address, a direction bit, and 32 bits of data. This instruction is identical to MEMORY_SIZED_ACCESS except that it always does word sized accesses. The size field is implied, and the two lowest address bits are removed and not scanned in. Note: This instruction was previously known as MEMORY_ACCESS, and is provided for backwards compatibility. The data register is alternately interpreted by the SAB as an address register and a data register. The SAB starts in address mode after the MEMORY_WORD_ACCESS instruction is selected, and toggles between address and data mode each time a data scan completes with the busy bit cleared. Starting in Run-Test/Idle, SAB data is accessed in the following way: 1. Select the IR Scan path. 2. In Capture-IR: The IR output value is latched into the shift register. 3. In Shift-IR: The instruction register is shifted by the TCK input. 4. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 5. Select the DR Scan path. 6.

Up to 32 bits of data is accessed at a time, while the address is sequentially incremented from the previously used address. In this mode, the SAB address, size, and access direction is not provided with each access. Instead, the previous address is auto-incremented depending on the specified size and the previous operation repeated. The address must be set up in advance with MEMORY_SIZE_ACCESS or MEMORY_WORD_ACCESS. It is allowed, but not required, to shift data after shifting the address. This instruction is primarily intended to speed up large quantities of sequential word accesses. It is possible to use it also for byte and halfword accesses, but the overhead in this is case much larger as 32 bits must still be shifted for each access. The following sequence should be used: 1. Use the MEMORY_SIZE_ACCESS or MEMORY_WORD_ACCESS to read or write the first location. 2. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 3. Select the IR Scan path. 4. In Capture-IR: The IR output value is latched into the shift register. 5. In Shift-IR: The instruction register is shifted by the TCK input. 6. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 7. Select the DR Scan path. The address will now have incremented by 1, 2, or 4 (corresponding to the next byte, halfword, or word location). 8. In Shift-DR: For a read operation, scan out the contents of the next addressed location. For a write operation, scan in the new contents of the next addressed location. 9. Go to Update-DR. 10. If the block access is not complete, return to Select-DR Scan and repeat the access. 11. If the block access is complete, return to Run-Test/Idle. For write operations, 32 data bits must be provided, or the result will be undefined. For read operations, shifting may be terminated once the required number of bits have been acquired.

The CANCEL_ACCESS instruction provides a possibility to abort an ongoing transfer and report a timeout to the JTAG master. When the CANCEL_ACCESS instruction is selected, the current access will be terminated as soon as possible. There are no guarantees about how long this will take, as the hardware may not always be able to cancel the access immediately. The SAB is ready to respond to a new command when the busy bit clears. Starting in Run-Test/Idle, CANCEL_ACCESS is accessed in the following way: 1. Select the IR Scan path. 2. In Capture-IR: The IR output value is latched into the shift register. 3. In Shift-IR: The instruction register is shifted by the TCK input. 4. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 34.5.3.7 SYNC This instruction allows external debuggers and testers to measure the ratio between the external JTAG clock and the internal system clock. The SYNC data register is a 16-bit counter that counts down to zero using the internal system clock. The busy bit stays high until the counter reaches zero. Starting in Run-Test/Idle, SYNC instruction is used in the following way: 1. Select the IR Scan path. 2. In Capture-IR: The IR output value is latched into the shift register. 3. In Shift-IR: The instruction register is shifted by the TCK input. 4. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 5. Select the DR Scan path.

Calculate an approximation to the internal clock speed using the elapsed time and the counter value. 10. Return to Run-Test/Idle. The full 16-bit counter value must be provided when starting the synch operation, or the result will be undefined. When reading status, shifting may be terminated once the required number of bits have been acquired. 34.5.3.8 AVR_RESET This instruction allows a debugger or tester to directly control separate reset domains inside the chip. The shift register contains one bit for each controllable reset domain. Setting a bit to one resets that domain and holds it in reset. Setting a bit to zero releases the reset for that domain. The AVR_RESET instruction can be used in the following way: 1. Select the IR Scan path. 2. In Capture-IR: The IR output value is latched into the shift register. 3. In Shift-IR: The instruction register is shifted by the TCK input. 4. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 5. Select the DR Scan path. 6. In Shift-DR: Scan in the value corresponding to the reset domains the JTAG master wants to reset into the data register. 7. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 8. Stay in run test idle for at least 10 TCK clock cycles to let the reset propagate to the system. See the device specific documentation for the number of reset domains, and what these domains are. For any operation, all bits must be provided or the result will be undefined. Table 34-24.

This will also clear any security bits that are set, so the device can be accessed normally. In devices without non-volatile memories this instruction does nothing, and appears to complete immediately. The erasing of non-volatile memories starts as soon as the CHIP_ERASE instruction is selected. The CHIP_ERASE instruction selects a 1 bit bypass data register. A chip erase operation should be performed as: 1. Reset the system and stop the CPU from executing. 2. Select the IR Scan path. 3. In Capture-IR: The IR output value is latched into the shift register. 4. In Shift-IR: The instruction register is shifted by the TCK input. 5. Check the busy bit that was scanned out during Shift-IR. If the busy bit was set goto 2. 6. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 34.5.3.10 HALT This instruction allows a programmer to easily stop the CPU to ensure that it does not execute invalid code during programming. This instruction selects a 1-bit halt register. Setting this bit to one halts the CPU. Setting this bit to zero releases the CPU to run normally. The value shifted out from the data register is one if the CPU is halted. Before releasing the halt command the CPU needs to be reset to ensure that it will start at the reset startup address. The HALT instruction can be used in the following way: 1. Select the IR Scan path. 2. In Capture-IR: The IR output value is latched into the shift register. 3. In Shift-IR: The instruction register is shifted by the TCK input. 4. Return to Run-Test/Idle. 5. Select the DR Scan path. DR Size Device specific. DR input value Device specific.

Additional registers exist, but are implicitly described in the functional description of the relevant instructions. 34.5.4.1 Device Identification Register The Device Identification Register contains a unique identifier for each product. The register is selected by the IDCODE instruction, which is the default instruction after a JTAG reset. Device specific ID codes The different device configurations have different JTAG ID codes, as shown in Table 34-28. Note that if the flash controller is statically reset, the ID code will be undefined. 34.5.4.2 Reset Register The reset register is selected by the AVR_RESET instruction and contains one bit for each reset domain in the device. Setting each bit to one will keep that domain reset until the bit is cleared.

Typically, output value, output enable, and input data are all available in the boundary-scan chain. The boundary-scan chain is described in the BSDL (Boundary Scan Description Language) file available at the Atmel web site. System Resets the whole chip, except the JTAG itself. 880 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 34.6 aWire Debug Interface (AW) Rev.: 2.3.0.1 34.6.1 Features • Single pin debug system. • Half Duplex asynchronous communication (UART compatible). • Full duplex mode for direct UART connection. • Compatible with JTAG functionality, except boundary scan. • Failsafe packet-oriented protocol. • Read and write on-chip memory and program on-chip flash and fuses through SAB interface. • On-Chip Debug access through SAB interface. • Asynchronous receiver or transmitter when the aWire system is not used for debugging. 34.6.2 Overview The aWire Debug Interface (AW) offers a single pin debug solution that is fully compatible with the functionality offered by the JTAG interface, except boundary scan. This functionality includes memory access, programming capabilities, and On-Chip Debug access. Figure 34-8 on page 881 shows how the AW is connected in a 32-bit AVR device. The RESET_N pin is used both as reset and debug pin. A special sequence on RESET_N is needed to block the normal reset functionality and enable the AW. The Service Access Bus (SAB) interface contains address and data registers for the Service Access Bus, which gives access to On-Chip Debug, programming, and other functions in the device. The SAB offers several modes of access to the address and data registers, as discussed in Section 34.6.6.8. Section 34.6.7 lists the supported aWire commands and responses, with references to the description in this document. If the AW is not used for debugging, the aWire UART can be used by the user to send or receive data with one stop bit, eight data bits, no parity bits, and one stop bit. This can be controlled through the aWire user interface. 881 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 34.6.3 Block Diagram Figure 34-8. aWire Debug Interface Block Diagram 34.6.4 I/O Lines Description 34.6.5 Product Dependencies In order to use this module, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below.

The reset functionality is the default function of this pin. To enable the aWire functionality on the RESET_N pin the user must enable the AW either by sending the enable sequence over the RESET_N pin from an external aWire master or by enabling the aWire user interface. In 2-pin mode data is received on the RESET_N line, but transmitted on the DATAOUT line. After sending the 2_PIN_MODE command the DATAOUT line is automatically enabled. All other peripheral functions on this pin is disabled. 34.6.5.2 Power Management When debugging through AW the system clocks are automatically turned on to allow debugging in sleep modes. 34.6.5.3 Clocks The aWire UART uses the internal 120 MHz RC oscillator (RC120M) as clock source for its operation. When enabling the AW the RC120M is automatically started. 34.6.5.4 External Components The AW needs an external pullup on the RESET_N pin to ensure that the pin is pulled up when the bus is not driven. 34.6.6 Functional Description 34.6.6.1 aWire Communication Protocol The AW is accessed through the RESET_N pin shown in Table 34-29 on page 881. The AW communicates through a UART operating at variable baud rate (depending on a sync pattern) with one start bit, 8 data bits (LSB first), one stop bit, and no parity bits. The aWire protocol is based upon command packets from an externalmaster and response packets from the slave (AW). The master always initiates communication and decides the baud rate. The packet contains a sync byte (0x55), a command/response byte, two length bytes (optional), a number of data bytes as defined in the length field (optional), and two CRC bytes. If the command/response has the most significant bit set, the command/response also carries the optional length and data fields. The CRC field is not checked if the CRC value transmitted is 0x0000. Table 34-30. aWire Packet Format Field Number of bytes Description Comment Optional SYNC 1 Sync pattern (0x55). Used by the receiver to set the baud rate clock. No COMMAND/ RESPONSE 1 Command from the master or response from the slave. When the most significant bit is set the command/response has a length field. A response has the next most significant bit set. A command does not have this bit set. No 883 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U CRC calculation The CRC is calculated from the command/response, length, and data fields. The polynomial used is the FCS16 (or CRC-16-CCIT) in reverse mode (0x8408) and the starting value is 0x0000. Example command Below is an example command from the master with additional data. Figure 34-9. Example Command Example response Below is an example response from the slave with additional data. Figure 34-10. Example Response LENGTH 2 The number of bytes in the DATA field. Yes DATA LENGTH Data according to command/ response. Yes CRC 2 CRC calculated with the FCS16 polynomial. CRC value of 0x0000 makes the aWire disregard the CRC if the master does not support it.

To avoid both the master and the slave to drive this line when changing direction the AW has a built in guard time before it starts to drive the line. At reset this guard time is set to maximum (128 bit cycles), but can be lowered by the master upon command. The AW will release the line immediately after the stop character has been transmitted. During the direction change there can be a period when the line is not driven. An external pullup has to be added to RESET_N to keep the signal stable when neither master or slave is actively driving the line. 34.6.6.2 The RESET_N pin Normal reset functionality on the RESET_N pin is disabled when using aWire. However, the user can reset the system through the RESET aWire command. During aWire operation the RESET_N pin should not be connected to an external reset circuitry, but disconnected via a switch or a jumper to avoid drive contention and speed problems. Figure 34-11. Reset Circuitry and aWire. 34.6.6.3 Initializing the AW To enable AW, the user has to send a 0x55 pattern with a baudrate of 1 kHz on the RESET_N pin. The AW is enabled after transmitting this pattern and the user can start transmitting commands. This pattern is not the sync pattern for the first command. After enabling the aWire debug interface the halt bit is set automatically to prevent the system from running code after the interface is enabled. To make the CPU run again set halt to zero using the HALT command. 34.6.6.4 Disabling the AW To disable AW, the user can keep the RESET_N pin low for 100 ms. This will disable the AW, return RESET_N to its normal function, and reset the device. An aWire master can also disable aWire by sending the DISABLE command. After acking the command the AW will be disabled and RESET_N returns to its normal function. RESET_N AW Debug Interface Jumper MCU Power Manager aWire master connector Board Reset Circuitry 885 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 34.6.6.5 Resetting the AW The aWire master can reset the AW slave by pulling the RESET_N pin low for 20 ms. This is equivalent to disabling and then enabling AW. 34.6.6.6 2-pin Mode To avoid using special hardware when using a normal UART device as aWire master, the aWire slave has a 2-pin mode where one pin is used as input and on pin is used as output. To enable this mode the 2_PIN_MODE command must be sent. After sending the command, all responses will be sent on the DATAOUT pin instead of the RESET_N pin. Commands are still received on the RESET_N pin. 34.6.6.7 Baud Rate Clock The communication speed is set by the master in the sync field of the command. The AW will use this to resynchronize its baud rate clock and reply on this frequency. The minimum frequency of the communication is 1 kHz. The maximum frequency depends on the internal clock source for the AW (RC120M). The baud rate clock is generated by AW with the following formula: Where is the baud rate frequency and is the frequency of the internal RC120M. TUNE is the value returned by the BAUD_RATE response. To find the max frequency the user can issue the TUNE command to the AW to make it return the TUNE value. This value can be used to compute the . The maximum operational frequency ( ) is then: 34.6.6.8 Service Access Bus The AVR32 architecture offers a common interface for access to On-Chip Debug, programming, and test functions. These are mapped on a common bus called the Service Access Bus (SAB), which is linked to the aWire through a bus master module, which also handles synchronization between the aWire and SAB clocks. For more information about the SAB and a list of SAB slaves see the Service Access Bus chapter. SAB Clock When accessing the SAB through the aWire there are no limitations on baud rate frequency compared to chip frequency, although there must be an active system clock in order for the SAB accesses to complete. If the system clock (CLK_SYS) is switched off in sleep mode, activity on the aWire pin will restart the CLK_SYS automatically, without waking the device from sleep. aWire masters may optimize the transfer rate by adjusting the baud rate frequency in relation to the CLK_SYS. This ratio can be measured with the MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command. When issuing the MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command a counter value CV is returned. CV can be used to calculate the SAB speed ( ) using this formula: f aw TUNE f  br 8 = ---------------------------- f br f aw f aw f brmax f brmax f aw 4 = ------- f sab 886 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U SAB Address Mode The Service Access Bus uses 36 address bits to address memory or registers in any of the slaves on the bus. The bus supports sized accesses of bytes (8 bits), halfwords (16 bits), or words (32 bits). All accesses must be aligned to the size of the access, i.e. halfword accesses must have the lowest address bit cleared, and word accesses must have the two lowest address bits cleared. Two instructions exist to access the SAB: MEMORY_WRITE and MEMORY_READ. These two instructions write and read words, halfwords, and bytes from the SAB. Busy Reporting If the aWire master, during a MEMORY_WRITE or a MEMORY_READ command, transmit another byte when the aWire is still busy sending the previous byte to the SAB, the AW will respond with a MEMORY_READ_WRITE_STATUS error. See chapter Section 34.6.8.5 for more details. The aWire master should adjust its baudrate or delay between bytes when doing SAB accesses to ensure that the SAB is not overwhelmed with data. Error Reporting If a write is performed on a non-existing memory location the SAB interface will respond with an error. If this happens, all further writes in this command will not be performed and the error and number of bytes written is reported in the MEMORY_READWRITE_STATUS message from the AW after the write. If a read is performed on a non-existing memory location, the SAB interface will respond with an error. If this happens, the data bytes read after this event are not valid. The AW will include three extra bytes at the end of the transfer to indicate if the transfer was successful, or in the case of an error, how many valid bytes were received. 34.6.6.9 CRC Errors/NACK Response The AW will calculate a CRC value when receiving the command, length, and data fields of the command packets. If this value differs from the value from the CRC field of the packet, the AW will reply with a NACK response. Otherwise the command is carried out normally. An unknown command will be replied with a NACK response. In worst case a transmission error can happen in the length or command field of the packet. This can lead to the aWire slave trying to receive a command with or without length (opposite of what the master intended) or receive an incorrect number of bytes. The aWire slave will then either wait for more data when the master has finished or already have transmitted the NACK response in congestion with the master. The master can implement a timeout on every command and reset the slave if no response is returned after the timeout period has ended. f sab 3f aw CV – 3 = ---------------- 887 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 34.6.7 aWire Command Summary The implemented aWire commands are shown in the table below.

All responses sent from the aWire slave will be sent on this pin, instead of the RESET_N pin, starting with the ACK for the 2_PIN_MODE command. 34.6.7.9 MEMORY_WRITE This command enables programming of memory/writing to registers on the SAB. The MEMORY_WRITE command allows words, halfwords, and bytes to be programmed to a continuous sequence of addresses in one operation. Before transferring the data, the user must supply: 1. The number of data bytes to write + 5 (size and starting address) in the length field. 2. The size of the transfer: words, halfwords, or bytes. 3. The starting address of the transfer. Table 34-38.

The address and size field indicates that words should be written to address 0x500000004. The data written to 0x500000004 is 0xCAFEBABE. 34.6.7.10 MEMORY_READ This command enables reading of memory/registers on the Service Access Bus (SAB). The MEMORY_READ command allows words, halfwords, and bytes to be read from a continuous sequence of addresses in one operation. The user must supply: Table 34-41.

If the CPU is not halted during programming it can start executing partially loaded programs. To halt the processor, the aWire master should send 0x01 in the data field of the command. After programming the halting can be released by sending 0x00 in the data field of the command. 34.6.7.12 RESET This command resets different domains in the part. The aWire master sends a byte with the reset value. Each bit in the reset value byte corresponds to a reset domain in the chip. If a bit is set the reset is activated and if a bit is not set the reset is released. The number of reset domains and their destinations are identical to the resets described in the JTAG data registers chapter under reset register. 34.6.7.13 SET_GUARD_TIME Sets the guard time value in the AW, i.e. how long the AW will wait before starting its transfer after the master has finished. The guard time can be either 0x00 (128 bit lengths), 0x01 (16 bit lengths), 0x2 (4 bit lengths) or 0x3 (1 bit length). Table 34-45.

Mechanical Characteristics 36.1 Thermal Considerations 36.1.1 Thermal Data Table 36-1 summarizes the thermal resistance data depending on the package. 36.1.2 Junction Temperature The average chip-junction temperature, TJ, in °C can be obtained from the following: 1. 2. where: • JA = package thermal resistance, Junction-to-ambient (°C/W), provided in Table 36-1. • JC = package thermal resistance, Junction-to-case thermal resistance (°C/W), provided in Table 36-1. • HEAT SINK = cooling device thermal resistance (°C/W), provided in the device datasheet. • PD = device power consumption (W) estimated from data provided in Section 35.4 on page 898. • TA = ambient temperature (°C). From the first equation, the user can derive the estimated lifetime of the chip and decide if a cooling device is necessary or not. If a cooling device is to be fitted on the chip, the second equation should be used to compute the resulting average chip-junction temperature TJ in °C. Table 36-1.

The RC32K output on PA20 is not always permanently disabled The RC32K output on PA20 may sometimes re-appear. Fix/Workaround Before using RC32K for other purposes, the following procedure has to be followed in order to properly disable it: - Run the CPU on RCSYS - Disable the output to PA20 by writing a zero to PM.PPCR.RC32OUT - Enable RC32K by writing a one to SCIF.RC32KCR.EN, and wait for this bit to be read as one - Disable RC32K by writing a zero to SCIF.RC32KCR.EN, and wait for this bit to be read as zero. 2. PLLCOUNT value larger than zero can cause PLLEN glitch Initializing the PLLCOUNT with a value greater than zero creates a glitch on the PLLEN signal during asynchronous wake up. Fix/Workaround The lock-masking mechanism for the PLL should not be used. The PLLCOUNT field of the PLL Control Register should always be written to zero. 3. Writing 0x5A5A5A5A to the SCIF memory range will enable the SCIF UNLOCK feature The SCIF UNLOCK feature will be enabled if the value 0x5A5A5A5A is written to any location in the SCIF memory range. Fix/Workaround None. 38.1.2 SPI 1. SPI data transfer hangs with CSR0.CSAAT==1 and MR.MODFDIS==0 When CSR0.CSAAT==1 and mode fault detection is enabled (MR.MODFDIS==0), the SPI module will not start a data transfer. Fix/Workaround Disable mode fault detection by writing a one to MR.MODFDIS. 2. Disabling SPI has no effect on the SR.TDRE bit Disabling SPI has no effect on the SR.TDRE bit whereas the write data command is filtered when SPI is disabled. Writing to TDR when SPI is disabled will not clear SR.TDRE. If SPI is disabled during a PDCA transfer, the PDCA will continue to write data to TDR until its buffer is empty, and this data will be lost. Fix/Workaround Disable the PDCA, add two NOPs, and disable the SPI. To continue the transfer, enable the SPI and PDCA. 3. SPI disable does not work in SLAVE mode SPI disable does not work in SLAVE mode. Fix/Workaround Read the last received data, then perform a software reset by writing a one to the Software Reset bit in the Control Register (CR.SWRST). 941 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 4. SPI bad serial clock generation on 2nd chip_select when SCBR=1, CPOL=1, and NCPHA=0 When multiple chip selects (CS) are in use, if one of the baudrates equal 1 while one (CSRn.SCBR=1) of the others do not equal 1, and CSRn.CPOL=1 and CSRn.NCPHA=0, then an additional pulse will be generated on SCK. Fix/Workaround When multiple CS are in use, if one of the baudrates equals 1, the others must also equal 1 if CSRn.CPOL=1 and CSRn.NCPHA=0. 5. SPI mode fault detection enable causes incorrect behavior When mode fault detection is enabled (MR.MODFDIS==0), the SPI module may not operate properly. Fix/Workaround Always disable mode fault detection before using the SPI by writing a one to MR.MODFDIS. 6. SPI RDR.PCS is not correct The PCS (Peripheral Chip Select) field in the SPI RDR (Receive Data Register) does not correctly indicate the value on the NPCS pins at the end of a transfer. Fix/Workaround Do not use the PCS field of the SPI RDR. 38.1.3 TWI 1. SMBALERT bit may be set after reset The SMBus Alert (SMBALERT) bit in the Status Register (SR) might be erroneously set after system reset. Fix/Workaround After system reset, clear the SR.SMBALERT bit before commencing any TWI transfer. 2. Clearing the NAK bit before the BTF bit is set locks up the TWI bus When the TWIS is in transmit mode, clearing the NAK Received (NAK) bit of the Status Register (SR) before the end of the Acknowledge/Not Acknowledge cycle will cause the TWIS to attempt to continue transmitting data, thus locking up the bus. Fix/Workaround Clear SR.NAK only after the Byte Transfer Finished (BTF) bit of the same register has been set. 38.1.4 TC 1. Channel chaining skips first pulse for upper channel When chaining two channels using the Block Mode Register, the first pulse of the clock between the channels is skipped. Fix/Workaround Configure the lower channel with RA = 0x1 and RC = 0x2 to produce a dummy clock cycle for the upper channel. After the dummy cycle has been generated, indicated by the SR.CPCS bit, reconfigure the RA and RC registers for the lower channel with the real values. 38.1.5 CAT 1. CAT QMatrix sense capacitors discharged prematurely At the end of a QMatrix burst charging sequence that uses different burst count values for different Y lines, the Y lines may be incorrectly grounded for up to n-1 periods of the periph- 942 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U eral bus clock, where n is the ratio of the PB clock frequency to the GCLK_CAT frequency. This results in premature loss of charge from the sense capacitors and thus increased variability of the acquired count values. Fix/Workaround Enable the 1kOhm drive resistors on all implemented QMatrix Y lines (CSA 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and/or 15) by writing ones to the corresponding odd bits of the CSARES register. 2. Autonomous CAT acquisition must be longer than AST source clock period When using the AST to trigger CAT autonomous touch acquisition in sleep modes where the CAT bus clock is turned off, the CAT will start several acquisitions if the period of the AST source clock is larger than one CAT acquisition. One AST clock period after the AST trigger, the CAT clock will automatically stop and the CAT acquisition can be stopped prematurely, ruining the result. Fix/Workaround Always ensure that the ATCFG1.max field is set so that the duration of the autonomous touch acquisition is greater than one clock period of the AST source clock. 38.1.6 aWire 1. aWire MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command does not return correct CV The aWire MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command does not return a CV corresponding to the formula in the aWire Debug Interface chapter. Fix/Workaround Issue a dummy read to address 0x100000000 before issuing the MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command and use this formula instead: 38.2 Flash 1. Corrupted data in flash may happen after flash page write operations After a flash page write operation from an external programmer, reading (data read or code fetch) in flash may fail. This may lead to an exception or to others errors derived from this corrupted read access. Fix/Workaround Before any flash page write operation, each write in the page buffer must preceded by a write in the page buffer with 0xFFFF_FFFF content at any address in the page. 38.3 Rev.

Fix/Workaround Before using RC32K for other purposes, the following procedure has to be followed in order to properly disable it: - Run the CPU on RCSYS - Disable the output to PA20 by writing a zero to PM.PPCR.RC32OUT - Enable RC32K by writing a one to SCIF.RC32KCR.EN, and wait for this bit to be read as one f sab 7f aw CV – 3 = ---------------- 943 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U - Disable RC32K by writing a zero to SCIF.RC32KCR.EN, and wait for this bit to be read as zero. 2. PLLCOUNT value larger than zero can cause PLLEN glitch Initializing the PLLCOUNT with a value greater than zero creates a glitch on the PLLEN signal during asynchronous wake up. Fix/Workaround The lock-masking mechanism for the PLL should not be used. The PLLCOUNT field of the PLL Control Register should always be written to zero. 3. Writing 0x5A5A5A5A to the SCIF memory range will enable the SCIF UNLOCK feature The SCIF UNLOCK feature will be enabled if the value 0x5A5A5A5A is written to any location in the SCIF memory range. Fix/Workaround None. 38.3.2 WDT 1. WDT Control Register does not have synchronization feedback When writing to the Timeout Prescale Select (PSEL), Time Ban Prescale Select (TBAN), Enable (EN), or WDT Mode (MODE) fieldss of the WDT Control Register (CTRL), a synchronizer is started to propagate the values to the WDT clcok domain. This synchronization takes a finite amount of time, but only the status of the synchronization of the EN bit is reflected back to the user. Writing to the synchronized fields during synchronization can lead to undefined behavior. Fix/Workaround -When writing to the affected fields, the user must ensure a wait corresponding to 2 clock cycles of both the WDT peripheral bus clock and the selected WDT clock source. -When doing writes that changes the EN bit, the EN bit can be read back until it reflects the written value. 38.3.3 SPI 1. SPI data transfer hangs with CSR0.CSAAT==1 and MR.MODFDIS==0 When CSR0.CSAAT==1 and mode fault detection is enabled (MR.MODFDIS==0), the SPI module will not start a data transfer. Fix/Workaround Disable mode fault detection by writing a one to MR.MODFDIS. 2. Disabling SPI has no effect on the SR.TDRE bit Disabling SPI has no effect on the SR.TDRE bit whereas the write data command is filtered when SPI is disabled. Writing to TDR when SPI is disabled will not clear SR.TDRE. If SPI is disabled during a PDCA transfer, the PDCA will continue to write data to TDR until its buffer is empty, and this data will be lost. Fix/Workaround Disable the PDCA, add two NOPs, and disable the SPI. To continue the transfer, enable the SPI and PDCA. 3. SPI disable does not work in SLAVE mode SPI disable does not work in SLAVE mode. Fix/Workaround Read the last received data, then perform a software reset by writing a one to the Software Reset bit in the Control Register (CR.SWRST). 944 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 4. SPI bad serial clock generation on 2nd chip_select when SCBR=1, CPOL=1, and NCPHA=0 When multiple chip selects (CS) are in use, if one of the baudrates equal 1 while one (CSRn.SCBR=1) of the others do not equal 1, and CSRn.CPOL=1 and CSRn.NCPHA=0, then an additional pulse will be generated on SCK. Fix/Workaround When multiple CS are in use, if one of the baudrates equals 1, the others must also equal 1 if CSRn.CPOL=1 and CSRn.NCPHA=0. 5. SPI mode fault detection enable causes incorrect behavior When mode fault detection is enabled (MR.MODFDIS==0), the SPI module may not operate properly. Fix/Workaround Always disable mode fault detection before using the SPI by writing a one to MR.MODFDIS. 6. SPI RDR.PCS is not correct The PCS (Peripheral Chip Select) field in the SPI RDR (Receive Data Register) does not correctly indicate the value on the NPCS pins at the end of a transfer. Fix/Workaround Do not use the PCS field of the SPI RDR. 38.3.4 TWI 1. TWIS may not wake the device from sleep mode If the CPU is put to a sleep mode (except Idle and Frozen) directly after a TWI Start condition, the CPU may not wake upon a TWIS address match. The request is NACKed. Fix/Workaround When using the TWI address match to wake the device from sleep, do not switch to sleep modes deeper than Frozen. Another solution is to enable asynchronous EIC wake on the TWIS clock (TWCK) or TWIS data (TWD) pins, in order to wake the system up on bus events. 2. SMBALERT bit may be set after reset The SMBus Alert (SMBALERT) bit in the Status Register (SR) might be erroneously set after system reset. Fix/Workaround After system reset, clear the SR.SMBALERT bit before commencing any TWI transfer. 3. Clearing the NAK bit before the BTF bit is set locks up the TWI bus When the TWIS is in transmit mode, clearing the NAK Received (NAK) bit of the Status Register (SR) before the end of the Acknowledge/Not Acknowledge cycle will cause the TWIS to attempt to continue transmitting data, thus locking up the bus. Fix/Workaround Clear SR.NAK only after the Byte Transfer Finished (BTF) bit of the same register has been set. 38.3.5 PWMA 1. The SR.READY bit cannot be cleared by writing to SCR.READY The Ready bit in the Status Register will not be cleared when writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Status Clear register. The Ready bit will be cleared when the Busy bit is set. Fix/Workaround 945 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Disable the Ready interrupt in the interrupt handler when receiving the interrupt. When an operation that triggers the Busy/Ready bit is started, wait until the ready bit is low in the Status Register before enabling the interrupt. 38.3.6 TC 1. Channel chaining skips first pulse for upper channel When chaining two channels using the Block Mode Register, the first pulse of the clock between the channels is skipped. Fix/Workaround Configure the lower channel with RA = 0x1 and RC = 0x2 to produce a dummy clock cycle for the upper channel. After the dummy cycle has been generated, indicated by the SR.CPCS bit, reconfigure the RA and RC registers for the lower channel with the real values. 38.3.7 CAT 1. CAT QMatrix sense capacitors discharged prematurely At the end of a QMatrix burst charging sequence that uses different burst count values for different Y lines, the Y lines may be incorrectly grounded for up to n-1 periods of the peripheral bus clock, where n is the ratio of the PB clock frequency to the GCLK_CAT frequency. This results in premature loss of charge from the sense capacitors and thus increased variability of the acquired count values. Fix/Workaround Enable the 1kOhm drive resistors on all implemented QMatrix Y lines (CSA 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and/or 15) by writing ones to the corresponding odd bits of the CSARES register. 2. Autonomous CAT acquisition must be longer than AST source clock period When using the AST to trigger CAT autonomous touch acquisition in sleep modes where the CAT bus clock is turned off, the CAT will start several acquisitions if the period of the AST source clock is larger than one CAT acquisition. One AST clock period after the AST trigger, the CAT clock will automatically stop and the CAT acquisition can be stopped prematurely, ruining the result. Fix/Workaround Always ensure that the ATCFG1.max field is set so that the duration of the autonomous touch acquisition is greater than one clock period of the AST source clock. 3. CAT consumes unnecessary power when disabled or when autonomous touch not used A CAT prescaler controlled by the ATCFG0.DIV field will be active even when the CAT module is disabled or when the autonomous touch feature is not used, thereby causing unnecessary power consumption. Fix/Workaround If the CAT module is not used, disable the CLK_CAT clock in the PM module. If the CAT module is used but the autonomous touch feature is not used, the power consumption of the CAT module may be reduced by writing 0xFFFF to the ATCFG0.DIV field. 38.3.8 aWire 1. aWire MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command does not return correct CV The aWire MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command does not return a CV corresponding to the formula in the aWire Debug Interface chapter. Fix/Workaround 946 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Issue a dummy read to address 0x100000000 before issuing the MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command and use this formula instead: 38.4 Flash 2. Corrupted data in flash may happen after flash page write operations After a flash page write operation from an external programmer, reading (data read or code fetch) in flash may fail. This may lead to an exception or to others errors derived from this corrupted read access. Fix/Workaround Before any flash page write operation, each write in the page buffer must preceded by a write in the page buffer with 0xFFFF_FFFF content at any address in the page. 38.5 Rev. A 38.5.1 Device 3. JTAGID is wrong The JTAGID reads 0x021DF03F for all devices. Fix/Workaround None. 38.5.2 FLASHCDW 1. General-purpose fuse programming does not work The general-purpose fuses cannot be programmed and are stuck at 1. Please refer to the Fuse Settings chapter in the FLASHCDW for more information about what functions are affected. Fix/Workaround None. 2. Set Security Bit command does not work The Set Security Bit (SSB) command of the FLASHCDW does not work. The device cannot be locked from external JTAG, aWire, or other debug accesses. Fix/Workaround None. 3. Flash programming time is longer than specified f sab 7f aw CV – 3 = ---------------- 947 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U The flash programming time is now: Fix/Workaround None. 4. Power Manager 5. Clock Failure Detector (CFD) can be issued while turning off the CFD While turning off the CFD, the CFD bit in the Status Register (SR) can be set. This will change the main clock source to RCSYS. Fix/Workaround Solution 1: Enable CFD interrupt. If CFD interrupt is issues after turning off the CFD, switch back to original main clock source. Solution 2: Only turn off the CFD while running the main clock on RCSYS. 6. Sleepwalking in idle and frozen sleep mode will mask all other PB clocks If the CPU is in idle or frozen sleep mode and a module is in a state that triggers sleep walking, all PB clocks will be masked except the PB clock to the sleepwalking module. Fix/Workaround Mask all clock requests in the PM.PPCR register before going into idle or frozen mode. 4. Unused PB clocks are running Three unused PBA clocks are enabled by default and will cause increased active power consumption. Fix/Workaround Disable the clocks by writing zeroes to bits [27:25] in the PBA clock mask register. 38.5.3 SCIF 1. The RC32K output on PA20 is not always permanently disabled The RC32K output on PA20 may sometimes re-appear. Fix/Workaround Before using RC32K for other purposes, the following procedure has to be followed in order to properly disable it: - Run the CPU on RCSYS - Disable the output to PA20 by writing a zero to PM.PPCR.RC32OUT - Enable RC32K by writing a one to SCIF.RC32KCR.EN, and wait for this bit to be read as one - Disable RC32K by writing a zero to SCIF.RC32KCR.EN, and wait for this bit to be read as zero. 2. PLL lock might not clear after disable Table 38-1. Flash Characteristics Symbol Parameter Conditions Min Typ Max Unit TFPP Page programming time fCLK_HSB= 50MHz 7.5 ms TFPE Page erase time 7.5 TFFP Fuse programming time 1 TFEA Full chip erase time (EA) 9 TFCE JTAG chip erase time (CHIP_ERASE) fCLK_HSB= 115kHz 250 948 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Under certain circumstances, the lock signal from the Phase Locked Loop (PLL) oscillator may not go back to zero after the PLL oscillator has been disabled. This can cause the propagation of clock signals with the wrong frequency to parts of the system that use the PLL clock. Fix/Workaround PLL must be turned off before entering STOP, DEEPSTOP or STATIC sleep modes. If PLL has been turned off, a delay of 30us must be observed after the PLL has been enabled again before the SCIF.PLL0LOCK bit can be used as a valid indication that the PLL is locked. 3. PLLCOUNT value larger than zero can cause PLLEN glitch Initializing the PLLCOUNT with a value greater than zero creates a glitch on the PLLEN signal during asynchronous wake up. Fix/Workaround The lock-masking mechanism for the PLL should not be used. The PLLCOUNT field of the PLL Control Register should always be written to zero. 4. RCSYS is not calibrated The RCSYS is not calibrated and will run faster than 115.2kHz. Frequencies around 150kHz can be expected. Fix/Workaround If a known clock source is available the RCSYS can be runtime calibrated by using the frequency meter (FREQM) and tuning the RCSYS by writing to the RCCR register in SCIF. 5. Writing 0x5A5A5A5A to the SCIF memory range will enable the SCIF UNLOCK feature The SCIF UNLOCK feature will be enabled if the value 0x5A5A5A5A is written to any location in the SCIF memory range. Fix/Workaround None. 38.5.4 WDT 1. Clearing the Watchdog Timer (WDT) counter in second half of timeout period will issue a Watchdog reset If the WDT counter is cleared in the second half of the timeout period, the WDT will immediately issue a Watchdog reset. Fix/Workaround Use twice as long timeout period as needed and clear the WDT counter within the first half of the timeout period. If the WDT counter is cleared after the first half of the timeout period, you will get a Watchdog reset immediately. If the WDT counter is not cleared at all, the time before the reset will be twice as long as needed. 2. WDT Control Register does not have synchronization feedback When writing to the Timeout Prescale Select (PSEL), Time Ban Prescale Select (TBAN), Enable (EN), or WDT Mode (MODE) fieldss of the WDT Control Register (CTRL), a synchronizer is started to propagate the values to the WDT clcok domain. This synchronization takes a finite amount of time, but only the status of the synchronization of the EN bit is reflected back to the user. Writing to the synchronized fields during synchronization can lead to undefined behavior. Fix/Workaround -When writing to the affected fields, the user must ensure a wait corresponding to 2 clock cycles of both the WDT peripheral bus clock and the selected WDT clock source. -When doing writes that changes the EN bit, the EN bit can be read back until it reflects the written value. 949 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 38.5.5 GPIO 1. Clearing Interrupt flags can mask other interrupts When clearing interrupt flags in a GPIO port, interrupts on other pins of that port, happening in the same clock cycle will not be registered. Fix/Workaround Read the PVR register of the port before and after clearing the interrupt to see if any pin change has happened while clearing the interrupt. If any change occurred in the PVR between the reads, they must be treated as an interrupt. 38.5.6 SPI 1. SPI data transfer hangs with CSR0.CSAAT==1 and MR.MODFDIS==0 When CSR0.CSAAT==1 and mode fault detection is enabled (MR.MODFDIS==0), the SPI module will not start a data transfer. Fix/Workaround Disable mode fault detection by writing a one to MR.MODFDIS. 2. Disabling SPI has no effect on the SR.TDRE bit Disabling SPI has no effect on the SR.TDRE bit whereas the write data command is filtered when SPI is disabled. Writing to TDR when SPI is disabled will not clear SR.TDRE. If SPI is disabled during a PDCA transfer, the PDCA will continue to write data to TDR until its buffer is empty, and this data will be lost. Fix/Workaround Disable the PDCA, add two NOPs, and disable the SPI. To continue the transfer, enable the SPI and PDCA. 3. SPI disable does not work in SLAVE mode SPI disable does not work in SLAVE mode. Fix/Workaround Read the last received data, then perform a software reset by writing a one to the Software Reset bit in the Control Register (CR.SWRST). 4. SPI bad serial clock generation on 2nd chip_select when SCBR=1, CPOL=1, and NCPHA=0 When multiple chip selects (CS) are in use, if one of the baudrates equal 1 while one (CSRn.SCBR=1) of the others do not equal 1, and CSRn.CPOL=1 and CSRn.NCPHA=0, then an additional pulse will be generated on SCK. Fix/Workaround When multiple CS are in use, if one of the baudrates equals 1, the others must also equal 1 if CSRn.CPOL=1 and CSRn.NCPHA=0. 5. SPI mode fault detection enable causes incorrect behavior When mode fault detection is enabled (MR.MODFDIS==0), the SPI module may not operate properly. Fix/Workaround Always disable mode fault detection before using the SPI by writing a one to MR.MODFDIS. 6. SPI RDR.PCS is not correct The PCS (Peripheral Chip Select) field in the SPI RDR (Receive Data Register) does not correctly indicate the value on the NPCS pins at the end of a transfer. Fix/Workaround Do not use the PCS field of the SPI RDR. 950 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 38.5.7 TWI 1. TWIS may not wake the device from sleep mode If the CPU is put to a sleep mode (except Idle and Frozen) directly after a TWI Start condition, the CPU may not wake upon a TWIS address match. The request is NACKed. Fix/Workaround When using the TWI address match to wake the device from sleep, do not switch to sleep modes deeper than Frozen. Another solution is to enable asynchronous EIC wake on the TWIS clock (TWCK) or TWIS data (TWD) pins, in order to wake the system up on bus events. 2. SMBALERT bit may be set after reset The SMBus Alert (SMBALERT) bit in the Status Register (SR) might be erroneously set after system reset. Fix/Workaround After system reset, clear the SR.SMBALERT bit before commencing any TWI transfer. 3. Clearing the NAK bit before the BTF bit is set locks up the TWI bus When the TWIS is in transmit mode, clearing the NAK Received (NAK) bit of the Status Register (SR) before the end of the Acknowledge/Not Acknowledge cycle will cause the TWIS to attempt to continue transmitting data, thus locking up the bus. Fix/Workaround Clear SR.NAK only after the Byte Transfer Finished (BTF) bit of the same register has been set. 4. TWIS stretch on Address match error When the TWIS stretches TWCK due to a slave address match, it also holds TWD low for the same duration if it is to be receiving data. When TWIS releases TWCK, it releases TWD at the same time. This can cause a TWI timing violation. Fix/Workaround None. 5. TWIM TWALM polarity is wrong The TWALM signal in the TWIM is active high instead of active low. Fix/Workaround Use an external inverter to invert the signal going into the TWIM. When using both TWIM and TWIS on the same pins, the TWALM cannot be used. 38.5.8 PWMA 1. The SR.READY bit cannot be cleared by writing to SCR.READY The Ready bit in the Status Register will not be cleared when writing a one to the corresponding bit in the Status Clear register. The Ready bit will be cleared when the Busy bit is set. Fix/Workaround Disable the Ready interrupt in the interrupt handler when receiving the interrupt. When an operation that triggers the Busy/Ready bit is started, wait until the ready bit is low in the Status Register before enabling the interrupt. 38.5.9 TC 1. Channel chaining skips first pulse for upper channel When chaining two channels using the Block Mode Register, the first pulse of the clock between the channels is skipped. 951 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U Fix/Workaround Configure the lower channel with RA = 0x1 and RC = 0x2 to produce a dummy clock cycle for the upper channel. After the dummy cycle has been generated, indicated by the SR.CPCS bit, reconfigure the RA and RC registers for the lower channel with the real values. 38.5.10 ADCIFB 1. ADCIFB DMA transfer does not work with divided PBA clock DMA requests from the ADCIFB will not be performed when the PBA clock is slower than the HSB clock. Fix/Workaround Do not use divided PBA clock when the PDCA transfers from the ADCIFB. 38.5.11 CAT 1. CAT QMatrix sense capacitors discharged prematurely At the end of a QMatrix burst charging sequence that uses different burst count values for different Y lines, the Y lines may be incorrectly grounded for up to n-1 periods of the peripheral bus clock, where n is the ratio of the PB clock frequency to the GCLK_CAT frequency. This results in premature loss of charge from the sense capacitors and thus increased variability of the acquired count values. Fix/Workaround Enable the 1kOhm drive resistors on all implemented QMatrix Y lines (CSA 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and/or 15) by writing ones to the corresponding odd bits of the CSARES register. 2. Autonomous CAT acquisition must be longer than AST source clock period When using the AST to trigger CAT autonomous touch acquisition in sleep modes where the CAT bus clock is turned off, the CAT will start several acquisitions if the period of the AST source clock is larger than one CAT acquisition. One AST clock period after the AST trigger, the CAT clock will automatically stop and the CAT acquisition can be stopped prematurely, ruining the result. Fix/Workaround Always ensure that the ATCFG1.max field is set so that the duration of the autonomous touch acquisition is greater than one clock period of the AST source clock. 3. CAT consumes unnecessary power when disabled or when autonomous touch not used A CAT prescaler controlled by the ATCFG0.DIV field will be active even when the CAT module is disabled or when the autonomous touch feature is not used, thereby causing unnecessary power consumption. Fix/Workaround If the CAT module is not used, disable the CLK_CAT clock in the PM module. If the CAT module is used but the autonomous touch feature is not used, the power consumption of the CAT module may be reduced by writing 0xFFFF to the ATCFG0.DIV field. 4. CAT module does not terminate QTouch burst on detect The CAT module does not terminate a QTouch burst when the detection voltage is reached on the sense capacitor. This can cause the sense capacitor to be charged more than necessary. Depending on the dielectric absorption characteristics of the capacitor, this can lead to unstable measurements. Fix/Workaround Use the minimum possible value for the MAX field in the ATCFG1, TG0CFG1, and TG1CFG1 registers. 952 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 38.5.12 aWire 1. aWire MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command does not return correct CV The aWire MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command does not return a CV corresponding to the formula in the aWire Debug Interface chapter. Fix/Workaround Issue a dummy read to address 0x100000000 before issuing the MEMORY_SPEED_REQUEST command and use this formula instead: 38.5.13 Flash 5. Corrupted data in flash may happen after flash page write operations After a flash page write operation from an external programmer, reading (data read or code fetch) in flash may fail. This may lead to an exception or to others errors derived from this corrupted read access. Fix/Workaround Before any flash page write operation, each write in the page buffer must preceded by a write in the page buffer with 0xFFFF_FFFF content at any address in the page. 38.5.14 I/O Pins 1. PA05 is not 3.3V tolerant. PA05 should be grounded on the PCB and left unused if VDDIO is above 1.8V. Fix/Workaround None. 2. No pull-up on pins that are not bonded PB13 to PB27 are not bonded on UC3L0256/128, but has no pull-up and can cause current consumption on VDDIO/VDDIN if left undriven. Fix/Workaround Enable pull-ups on PB13 to PB27 by writing 0x0FFFE000 to the PUERS1 register in the GPIO. 3. PA17 has low ESD tolerance PA17 only tolerates 500V ESD pulses (Human Body Model). Fix/Workaround Care must be taken during manufacturing and PCB design. f sab 7f aw CV – 3 = ---------------- 953 32142D–06/2013 ATUC64/128/256L3/4U 39.

USB Demonstrations Help MPLAB Harmony Integrated Software Framework © 2013-2018 Microchip Technology Inc. All rights reserved. Volume I: Getting Started With MPLAB Harmony Libraries and Applications This volume introduces the MPLAB® Harmony Integrated Software Framework. Description MPLAB Harmony is a layered framework of modular libraries that provide flexible and interoperable software "building blocks" for developing embedded PIC32 applications. MPLAB Harmony is also part of a broad and expandable ecosystem, providing demonstration applications, third-party offerings, and convenient development tools, such as the MPLAB Harmony Configurator (MHC), which integrate with the MPLAB X IDE and MPLAB XC32 language tools. Legal Notices Please review the Software License Agreement prior to using MPLAB Harmony. It is the responsibility of the end-user to know and understand the software license agreement terms regarding the Microchip and third-party software that is provided in this installation. A copy of the agreement is available in the /doc folder of your MPLAB Harmony installation. The OPENRTOS® demonstrations provided in MPLAB Harmony use the OPENRTOS evaluation license, which is meant for demonstration purposes only. Customers desiring development and production on OPENRTOS must procure a suitable license. Please refer to one of the following documents, which are located in the /third_party/rtos/OPENRTOS/Documents folder of your MPLAB Harmony installation, for information on obtaining an evaluation license for your device: • OpenRTOS Click Thru Eval License PIC32MXxx.pdf • OpenRTOS Click Thru Eval License PIC32MZxx.pdf TIP! Throughout this documentation, occurrences of refer to the default MPLAB Harmony installation path: • Windows: C:/microchip/harmony/ • Mac OS/Linux: ~/microchip/harmony/ Volume I: Getting Started With MPLAB Harmony © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 2 Applications Help This section provides information on the various application demonstrations that are included in MPLAB Harmony. Description Applications determine how MPLAB Harmony libraries (device drivers, middleware, and system services) are used to do something useful. In a MPLAB Harmony system, there may be one main application, there may be multiple independent applications or there may be one or more Operating System (OS) specific applications. Applications interact with MPLAB Harmony libraries through well defined interfaces. Applications may operate in a strictly polling environment, they may be interrupt driven, they may be executed in OS-specific threads, or they may be written so as to be flexible and easily configured for any of these environments. Applications generally fit into one of the following categories. Demonstration Applications Demonstration applications are provided (with MPLAB Harmony or in separate installations) to demonstrate typical or interesting usage models of one or more MPLAB Harmony libraries. Demonstration applications can demonstrate realistic solutions to real-life problems. Sample Applications Sample applications are extremely simple applications provided with MPLAB Harmony as examples of how to use individual features of a library. They will not normally accomplish anything useful on their own. They are provided primarily as documentation to show how to use a library. USB Demonstrations This section provides descriptions of the USB demonstrations. MPLAB Harmony is available for download from the Microchip website by visiting: http://www.microchip.com/mplabharmony. Once you are on the site, click the Downloads tab to access the appropriate download for your operating system.

Description This demonstration uses the selected hardware platform as a HID class USB device, but uses the HID class for general purpose I/O operations. While compiling, select the appropriate MPLAB X IDE project configuration based on the demonstration board. Refer to Building the Application for details. Typically, the HID class is used to implement human interface products, such as mice and keyboards. The HID protocol, is however, quite flexible, and can be adapted and used to send/receive general purpose data to/from a USB device. Using the HID class for general purpose I/O operations is quite advantageous, in that it does not require any kind of custom driver installation process. HID class drivers are already provided by and are distributed with common operating systems. Therefore, upon plugging in a HID class device into a typical computer system, no user installation of drivers is required, the installation is fully automatic. The LEDs on the demonstration board will indicate the USB state of the device, as described in the USB Device State and LED Indication Table in the Device section. HID devices primarily communicate through one interrupt IN endpoint and one interrupt OUT endpoint. In most applications, this effectively limits the maximum achievable bandwidth for full speed HID devices to 64 kBytes/s of IN traffic, and 64 kBytes/s of OUT traffic (64 kB/s, but effectively "full duplex"). The GenericHIDSimpleDemo.exe program, and the associated firmware demonstrate how to use the HID protocol for basic general purpose USB data transfer. Before you can run the GenericHIDSimpleDemo.exe executable, you will need to have the Microsoft® .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package (later versions are probably acceptable, but have not been tested) installed on your computer. Programs that were built in the Visual Studio® .NET languages require the .NET redistributable package. The redistributable package can be freely downloaded from Microsoft’s website. Users of Windows Vista® operating systems will not need to install the .NET framework, as it comes preinstalled as part of the operating system. Volume I: Getting Started With MPLAB Harmony Applications Help USB Demonstrations © 2013-2017 Microchip Technology Inc. MPLAB Harmony v2.06 25 Launching the Application To launch the application, simply double click the executable GenericHIDSimpleDemo.exe in the \apps\usb\device\hid_basic\bin directory. A property sheet similar to the following should appear: Note: If instead of this window, an error message appears while trying to launch the application, it is likely the Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package has not yet been installed. Please install it and try again. Send/Receive Packets To begin sending/receiving packets to the device, you must first find and_connect_ to the device. As configured by default, the application is looking for HID class USB devices with VID = 0x04D8 and PID = 0x003F. The device descriptor in the firmware project meant to be used with this demonstration uses the same VID/PID. If you plug in a USB device programmed with the correct precompiled .hex file, and click Connect, the other push buttons should become enabled. If clicking Connect has no effect, it is likely the USB device is either not connected, or has not been programmed with the correct firmware. Clicking Toggle LED(s) should send a single packet of general purpose generic data to the HID class USB peripheral device. The data will arrive on the interrupt OUT endpoint. The firmware has been configured to receive this generic data packet, parse the packet looking for the Toggle LED(s) command, and should respond appropriately by controlling the LED(s) on the demonstration board. The Get Pushbutton State option will send one packet of data over the USB to the peripheral device (to the interrupt OUT endpoint) requesting the current push button state. The firmware will process the received Get Pushbutton State command, and will prepare an appropriate response packet depending upon the pushbutton state. The following table shows the button that has to be pressed on the demonstration board to see the change in the push button state.

Description This demonstration shows an example of: • Accessing the media attached to PIC32 by multiple clients • Application running on the PIC32 firmware accesses the media using the MPLAB Harmony File System When connected to the USB Host the very first time, the user is expected to format the media and create a file named FILE.TXT in the root directory of the media. The user can update the file to provide input for the application to glow the LEDs present on the development kit. The application running on the PIC32 reads and interprets the data present in the file and accordingly turns ON or OFF the LEDs LED8 and LED9 of the development kit. The format of input in the file FILE.TXT should be as follows: • For turning ON an LED: • LED8:1 • LED9:1 • For turning OFF an LED: • LED8:0 • LED9:0 After having set the appropriate values in the file, the user can then press and release the wwitch SW1 located on the development kit for the MPLAB Harmony File System running on the PIC32 to act upon the contents of the file. The FS state machine of the demonstration is only triggered by the switch SW1. When the user presses and releases SW1 the following occurs: • LED5 is turned ON to indicate that the FS state machine is running • The USB is detached • The file system on the SPI Flash is mounted • The contents of FILE.TXT is read and acted upon. Depending on the values set in the file, the LEDs are either turned ON or OFF. • Next, the file system is unmounted and the USB is reattached • LED5 is turned OFF to indicate that FS state machine is no longer running • If LED6 is turned ON during any part of the demonstration, this indicates the demonstration has failed msd_multiple_luns This topic demonstrates data transfer between two storage media - SD card and non-volatile memory (NVM) - and a computer through USB Mass Storage Device (MSD).

DS00027U-page xvii Embedded Control Overview Unlike “processor” applications such as personal computers and workstations, the computing or controlling elements of embedded control applications are embedded inside the application. The consumer is only concerned with the very top-level user interface such as keypads, displays and high-level commands. Very rarely does an end-user know (or care to know) the embedded controller inside (unlike the conscientious PC users, who are intimately familiar not only with the processor type, but also its clock speed, DMA capabilities and so on). It is, however, most vital for designers of embedded control products to select the most suitable controller and companion devices. Embedded control products are found in all market segments: consumer, commercial, PC peripherals, telecommunications, automotive and industrial. Most embedded control products must meet special requirements: cost effectiveness, low-power, small-footprint and a high level of system integration. Typically, most embedded control systems are designed around an MCU which integrates on-chip program memory, data memory (RAM) and various peripheral functions, such as timers and serial communication. In addition, these systems usually require complementary Serial EEPROM, analog/interface devices, display drivers, keypads or small displays. Microchip has established itself as a leading supplier of embedded control solutions. The combination of high-performance PIC12CXXX, PIC16C5X, PIC16CXXX, PIC17CXXX and PIC18CXXX MCU families with Migratable Memory™ technology, along with non-volatile memory products, provide the basis for this leadership. By further expanding our product portfolio to provide precision analog and interface products, Microchip is committed to continuous innovation and improvement in design, manufacturing and technical support to provide the best possible embedded control solutions to you. PICmicro MCU Overview and Roadmap Microchip PICmicro MCUs combine high-performance, low-cost, and small package size, offering the best price/performance ratio in the industry. More than one billion of these devices have shipped to customers worldwide since 1990. Microchip offers five families of MCUs to best fit your application needs: • PIC12CXXX 8-pin 12-bit/14-bit program word • PIC16C5X 12-bit program word • PIC16CXXX 14-bit program word • PIC17CXXX 16-bit program word • PIC18CXXX enhanced 16-bit program word All families offer OTP, low-voltage and low-power options, with a variety of package options. Selected members are available in ROM, EEPROM or reprogrammable FLASH versions. PIC12CXXX: 8-Pin, Family The PIC12CXXX family packs Microchip’s powerful RISC-based PICmicro architecture into 8-pin DIP and SOIC packages. These PIC12CXXX products are available with either a 12-bit or 14-bit wide instruction set, a low operating voltage of 2.5V, small package footprints, interrupt handling, a deeper hardware stack, multiple channels and EEPROM data memory. All of these features provide an intelligence level not previously available in applications because of cost or size considerations. PIC16C5X: 12-Bit Architecture Family The PIC16C5X is the well-established base-line family that offers the most cost-effective solution. These PIC16C5X products have a 12-bit wide instruction set and are currently offered in 14-, 18-, 20- and 28-pin packages. In the SOIC and SSOP packaging options, these devices are among the smallest footprint MCUs in the industry. Low-voltage operation, down to 2.0V for OTP MCUs, makes this family ideal for battery operated applications. Additionally, the PIC16HV5XX can operate up to 15 volts for use directly with a battery.

OTP EPROM Overview Microchip’s CMOS EPROM devices are produced in densities from 64K to 512K. Typical applications include computer peripherals, instrumentation, and automotive devices. Microchip’s expertise in surface mount packaging on SOIC and TSOP packages led to the development of the surface mount OTP EPROM market where Microchip is a leading supplier today. Microchip is also a leading supplier of low-voltage EPROMs for battery powered applications. MIGRATABLE MEMORY™ TECHNOLOGY Microchip’s innovative Migratable Memory technology (MMT) provides socket and software compatibility among all of its equivalent ROM, OTP and FLASH memory MCUs. MMT allows customers to match the selection of MCU memory technology to the product life cycle of their application, providing an easy migration path to a lower cost solution whenever appropriate. FLASH memory is an ideal solution for engineers designing products for embedded systems – especially during the development and early stages of the product. In certain products and applications, FLASH memory may be used for the life of the product because of the advantages of field upgradability or where product inventory flexibility is required. Once the design enters the pre-production stage and continues through introduction and growth stages, OTP program memory provides maximum programming flexibility and minimum inventory scrappage. The OTP device is pin and socket compatible with the FLASH device – providing a lower cost, high-volume flexible solution. As the design enters a mature stage and program code stabilizes, a lower cost, socket compatible ROM memory device could be used. In some cases, OTP memory may still be used as the most cost-effective memory technology for the product. Compatibility and flexibility are key to the success of the PICmicro MCU product family, and ultimately the success of our customers. FLEXIBLE PROGRAMMING OPTIONS To meet the stringent design requirements placed on our customers, the following innovative programming options are offered. These programming options address procurement issues by reducing and limiting work-in-process liability and facilitating finished goods code revisions. Microchip's worldwide distributors stock reprogrammable and one-time programmable inventory, allowing customers to respond to immediate sales opportunities or accommodate engineering changes off the shelf. FLASH (electrically reprogrammable) PICmicro FLASH MCUs allow erase and reprogramming of the MCU program memory. Reprogrammability offers a highly flexible solution to today's ever-changing market demands – and can substantially reduce time to market. Users can program their systems very late in the manufacturing process or update systems in the field. This allows easy code revisions, system parameterization or customer-specific options with no scrappage. Reprogrammability also reduces the design verification cycle. One-Time Programmable (OTP) PICmicro OTP MCUs are manufactured in high volumes without customer specific software and can be shipped immediately for custom programming. This is useful for customers who need rapid time to market and flexibility for frequent software updates. In-Circuit Serial Programming™ (ICSP™) Microchip's PICmicro FLASH and OTP MCUs feature ICSP capability. ICSP allows the MCU to be programmed after being placed in a circuit board, offering tremendous flexibility, reduced development time, increased manufacturing efficiency and improved time to market. This popular technology also enables reduced cost of field upgrades, system calibration during manufacturing, the addition of unique identification codes to the system and system calibration. Requiring only two I/O pins for most devices, Microchip offers the most non-intrusive programming methodology in the industry. Self Programming Microchip's PIC16F87X family features self programming capability. Self programming enables remote upgrades to the FLASH program memory and the end equipment through a variety of medium ranging from Internet and Modem to RF and Infrared. To setup for self programming, the designer programs a simple boot loader algorithm in a code protected area of the FLASH program memory. Through the selected medium, a secure command allows entry into the PIC16F87X MCU through the USART, I2C or SPI serial communication ports. The boot loader is then enabled to reprogram the PIC16F87X FLASH program memory with data received over the desired medium. And, of course, self programming is accomplished without the need for external components and without limitations on the PIC16F87X’s operating speed or voltage. Quick-Turn Programming (QTP) Microchip offers a QTP programming service for factory production orders. This service is ideal for customers who choose not to program a medium to high unit volume in their own factories, and whose production code patterns have stabilized. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page xxii Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00027U-page xxiii Serialized Quick-Turn Programming (SQTPSM) SQTP is a unique, flexible programming option that allows Microchip to program serialized, random or pseudo-random numbers into each device. Serial programming allows each device to have a unique number which can serve as an entry-code, password or ID number. Masked ROM Microchip offers Masked ROM versions of many of its most popular PICmicro MCUs, giving customers the lowest cost option for high volume products with stable firmware.

The company’s focus is on products that meet the needs of the embedded control market. We are a leading supplier of: • 8-bit general purpose microcontrollers (PICmicro® MCUs) • Speciality and standard non-volatile memory devices • Security devices (KEELOQ®) • Application specific standard products Please request a Microchip Product Line Card for a listing of all the interesting products that we have to offer. This literature can be obtained from your local sales office, or downloaded from the Microchip web site (www.microchip.com). In the past, 8-bit MCU users were fixed on the traditional MCU model for production, a ROM device. Microchip has been the leader in changing this perception by showing that OTP devices can give a better lifetime product cost compared to ROM versions. Microchip has strength in FLASH and EPROM technology. This makes it the memory technology of choice for the PICmicro MCU’s program memory. Microchip has minimized the cost difference between EPROM and ROM memory technology. Therefore, Microchip can pass these benefits on to our customers. This is not true for other MCU vendors, and is seen in the price difference between their FLASH/EPROM and ROM versions. The growth of Microchip’s 8-bit MCU market share is a testament to the PICmicro MCU’s ability to meet the needs of many customers. This growth has made the PICmicro architecture one of the top two architectures available in the general market today. This growth was fueled by the Microchip vision of the benefits of a low cost Field Programmable MCU solution. Some of the benefits for the customer include: • Quick time to market • Allows code changes to product during production run • No Non-Recurring Engineering (NRE) charges for Mask Revisions • Ability to easily serialize the product • Ability to store calibration data without additional hardware • Better able to maximize use of PICmicro MCU inventory • Less risk, since the same device is used for development as well as for production. Microchip’s PICmicro 8-bit MCUs offer a price/performance ratio that allows them to be considered for any traditional 8-bit MCU application, as well as some traditional 4-bit applications (Base-Line family), low-end 16-bit applications (PIC17CXXX and PIC18CXXX families), dedicated logic replacement and low-end DSP applications (High-End and Enhanced families). These features and price-performance mix make PICmicro MCUs an attractive solution for most applications. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Microchip’s development tools can be broken down into four categories: 1. Code generation 2. Hardware/Software debug 3. Device programmer 4. Product evaluation boards All tools developed by Microchip operate under the MPLAB® Integrated Development Environment (IDE), while some third party tools may not. The code generation tools include: • MPASM • MPLAB®-C17 (for PIC17CXXX family only) • MPLAB®-C18 (for PIC18CXXX family only) These software development programs include device header files. Each header file defines the register names (as shown in the device data sheet) to the specified address or bit location. Using the header files eases code migration and reduces the tediousness of memorizing a register’s address or a bit’s position in a register. Tools which ease in debugging software are: • MPLAB®-ICE In-Circuit Emulator • PICMASTER® In-Circuit Emulator • ICEPIC In-Circuit Emulator • MPLAB®-SIM Software Simulator After generating and debugging the application software, the device will need to be programmed. Microchip offers two levels of programmers: 1. PICSTART Plus programmer 2. PRO MATE II programmer Demonstration boards allow the developer of software code to evaluate the capability and suitability of the device to the application. The demo boards offered are: • PICDEM-1 • PICDEM-2 (can be used with PIC18CXX2 devices) • PICDEM-3 • PICDEM-14A • PICDEM-17 At the time of publication, only PICDEM-2 could be used with some Enhanced MCU devices. A full description of each of Microchip’s development tools is discussed in the “Development Tools” section. As new tools are developed, product briefs and user guides may be obtained from the Microchip web site (www.microchip.com) or from your local Microchip Sales Office. Code development recommendations and techniques are provided in the “Code Development” section. Microchip offers other reference tools to speed the development cycle. These include: • Application Notes • Reference Designs • Microchip web site • Local Sales Offices with Field Application Support • Corporate Support Line The Microchip web site lists other sites that may be useful references. Note: Microchip strongly recommends that the supplied header files be used in the source code of your program. This eases code migration, improves code readability, and increases the quality and depth of the technical support that Microchip can offer. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39501A-page 1-7 Section 1. Introduction Introduction 1 1.5 Device Varieties Once the functional requirements of the device are specified, other choices need to be made. These include: • Memory technology • Operating voltage • Operating temperature range • Operating frequency • Packaging Microchip has a large number of options and option combinations, one of which should fulfill your requirements. 1.5.1 Memory Varieties Memory technology has no effect on the logical operation of a device. Due to the different processing steps required, some electrical characteristics may vary between devices with the same feature set/pinout but with different memory technologies. An example is the electrical characteristic VIL (Input Low Voltage), which may have some difference between a typical EPROM device and a typical ROM device. Each device has a variety of frequency ranges and packaging options available. Depending on application and production requirements, the proper device options can be identified using the information in the Product Identification System section at the end of each data sheet. When placing orders, please use the “Product Identification System” at the back of the data sheet to specify the correct part number. When discussing the functionality of the device, the memory technology and the voltage range do not matter. Microchip offers three program memory types. The memory type is designated in the part number by the first letter(s) after the family affiliation designators. 1. C, as in PIC18CXXX. These devices have EPROM type memory. 2. CR, as in PIC18CRXXX. These devices have ROM type memory. 3. F, as in PIC18FXXX. These devices have FLASH type memory. 1.5.1.1 EPROM Microchip focuses on Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EPROM) technology to give customers flexibility throughout their entire design cycle. With this technology, Microchip offers various packaging options as well as services. 1.5.1.2 Read Only Memory (ROM) Devices Microchip offers a masked Read Only Memory (ROM) version of several of the highest volume parts, thus giving customers a lower cost option for high volume, mature products. ROM devices do not allow serialization information in the program memory space. For information on submitting ROM code, please contact your local Microchip sales office. 1.5.1.3 FLASH Memory Devices These devices are electrically erasable, and can therefore be offered in a low cost plastic package. Being electrically erasable, these devices can be erased and reprogrammed without removal from the circuit. A device will have the same specifications whether it is used for prototype development, pilot programs or production. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 7 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39501A-page 1-8  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 1.5.2 Operating Voltage Range Options All Enhanced PICmicro MCUs operate over the standard voltage range. Devices are also offered which operate over an extended voltage range (and reduced frequency range). Table 1-1 shows all possible memory types and voltage range designators for the PIC18CXXX MCU family. The designators are in bold typeface. Table 1-1: Device Memory Type and Voltage Range Designators As you can see in Table 1-2, Microchip specifies its extended range devices at a more conservative voltage range until device characterization has ensured they will be able to meet the goal of their final design specifications.

DS39501A-page 1-9 Section 1. Introduction Introduction 1 Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2 show example Voltage to Frequency Charts for the Enhanced MCU family. The voltages and frequencies of any given device may be different than those shown. These figures are intended to show that with an LC (extended voltage) device, the user can make a trade-off between voltage of operation and the frequency of the device. The device FMAX is given below the graph. As the voltages and frequencies of the device change, the equation for the device FMAX will change. Equation 1-1 shows the general equation to determine the device FMAX. Equation 1-1: Generic FMAX Equation Figure 1-1: PIC18CXXX Voltage-Frequency Graph - Example Figure 1-2: PIC18LCXXX Voltage-Frequency Graph - Example FMAX = (slope) (VDDAPPMIN - VDDMIN) + offset Frequency Voltage 6.0 V 5.5 V 4.5 V 4.0 V 2.0 V 40 MHz 5.0 V 3.5 V 3.0 V 2.5 V PIC18CXXX 4.2V Frequency Voltage 6.0 V 5.5 V 4.5 V 4.0 V 2.0 V 40 MHz 5.0 V 3.5 V 3.0 V 2.5 V PIC18LCXXX 6 MHz 4.2V Note: VDDAPPMIN is the minimum voltage of the PICmicro device in the application. FMAX = (20.0 MHz/V) (VDDAPPMIN - 2.5 V) + 6 MHz 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 9 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39501A-page 1-10  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 1.5.3 Packaging Varieties Depending on the development phase of your project, one of three package types would be used. The first package type is ceramic with an erasure window. The window allows ultraviolet light into the package so that the device inside may be erased. The package is used for the development phase, since the device’s program memory can be erased and reprogrammed many times. The second package type is a low cost plastic package. This package type is used in production where device cost is to be kept to a minimum. Lastly, there is the Die option. A Die is an unpackaged device that has been tested. Dies are used in low cost designs and designs where board space is at a minimum. For additional information on die support, please refer to the Die Support Document (DS30258). Table 1-3 shows a quick summary of the typical use for each package type. Table 1-3: Typical Package Uses 1.5.3.1 UV Erasable Devices The UV erasable version of EPROM program memory devices is optimal for prototype development and pilot programs. These devices can be erased and reprogrammed to any of the configuration modes. Third party programmers are available. Refer to Microchip’s Third Party Guide (DS00104) for a list of sources. The amount of time required to completely erase a UV erasable device depends on the: • Wavelength of the light • Intensity of the light • Distance of the device from the UV source • Process technology of the device (size of the memory cells). 1.5.3.2 One-Time-Programmable (OTP) Devices The availability of OTP devices is especially useful for customers expecting code changes and updates. OTP devices in plastic packages permit the user to program them once. Often the system can be designed so that programming may be performed in-circuit (after the device has been mounted on the circuit board). 1.5.3.3 FLASH Devices These devices are electrically erasable, and can therefore be offered in a low cost plastic package. Being electrically erasable, these devices can be both erased and reprogrammed without removal from the circuit. A device will have the same specifications whether it is used for prototype development, pilot programs, or production. Package Type Typical Usage Windowed Development mode Plastic Production Die Special applications, such as those which require minimum board space Note: Fluorescent lights and sunlight both emit ultraviolet light at the erasure wavelength. Leaving a UV erasable device’s window uncovered could cause, over time, the device’s memory cells to become erased. The erasure time for a fluorescent light is about three years, while sunlight requires only about one week. To prevent the memory cells from losing data, an opaque label should be placed over the erasure window. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 10 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39501A-page 1-11 Section 1. Introduction Introduction 1 1.5.3.4 ROM Devices ROM devices have their program memory fixed at the time of the silicon manufacture. Since the program memory cannot be changed, the device is usually housed in the low cost plastic package. 1.5.3.5 Die The Die option allows the board size to become as small as physically possible. The Die Support document (DS30258) explains general information about using and designing with Die. There are also individual specification sheets that detail Die specific information. Manufacturing with Die requires special knowledge and equipment. This means that the number of manufacturing houses that support Die will be limited. If you decide to use the Die option, please research your manufacturing sites to ensure that they will be able to meet the specialized requirements of Die use. 1.5.3.6 Specialized Services For OTP customers with established code, Microchip offers two specialized services. These two services, Quick Turn Production Programming and Serialized Quick Turn Production Programming, allow customers to shorten their manufacturing cycle time. 1.5.3.6.1 Quick Turn Production (QTP) Programming Microchip offers this programming service for factory production orders. This service is made available for users who choose not to program a medium to high quantity of units at their factory and whose code patterns have stabilized. The devices are identical to the OTP devices, but with all EPROM locations and configuration options already programmed by Microchip. Certain code and prototype verification procedures apply before production shipments are available. Please contact your local Microchip sales office for more details. 1.5.3.6.2 Serialized Quick Turn Production (SQTPSM) Programming Microchip offers a unique programming service where a few user-defined locations in each device are programmed with unique numbers. These numbers may be: • Random numbers • Pseudo-random numbers • Sequential numbers Serial programming allows each device to have a unique number which can serve as an entry-code, password, ID, or serial number. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39501A-page 1-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 1.6 Style and Symbol Conventions Throughout this document, certain style and font format conventions are used. Most format conventions imply a distinction should be made for the emphasized text. The MCU industry has many symbols and non-conventional word definitions/abbreviations. Table 1-4 provides a description for many of the conventions contained in this document. A glossary is provided in the “Glossary” section, which contains more word and abbreviation definitions that are used throughout this manual. 1.6.1 Document Conventions Table 1-4 defines some of the symbols and terms used throughout this manual. Table 1-4: Document Conventions Symbol or Term Description set To force a bit/register to a value of logic ‘1’. clear To force a bit/register to a value of logic ‘0’. reset 1) To force a register/bit to its default state. 2) A condition in which the device places itself after a device reset occurs. Some bits will be forced to ‘0’ (such as interrupt enable bits), while others will be forced to ‘1’ (such as the I/O data direction bits). 0xnn or nnh Designates the number ‘nn’ in the hexadecimal number system. These conventions are used in the code examples. B’bbbbbbbb’ Designates the number ‘bbbbbbbb’ in the binary number system. This convention is used in the text and in figures and tables. R-M-W Read - Modify - Write. This is when a register or port is read, then the value is modified, and that value is then written back to the register or port. This action can occur from a single instruction (such as bit set file, BSF) or a sequence of instructions. : (colon) Used to specify a range or the concatenation of registers/bits/pins. One example is TMR1H:TMR1L, which is the concatenation of two 8-bit registers to form a 16-bit timer value, while SSPM3:SSPM0 are 4-bits used to specify the mode of the SSP module. Concatenation order (left-right) usually specifies a positional relationship (MSb to LSb, higher to lower). < > Specifies bit(s) locations in a particular register. One example is SSPCON (or SSPCON<3:0>) which specifies the register and associated bits or bit positions. Courier Font Used for code examples, binary numbers and for Instruction Mnemonics in the text. Times Font Used for equations and variables. Times, Bold Font, Italics Used in explanatory text for items called out from a graphic/equation/example.

Four device system clock periods (TSCLK) generate one internal instruction clock cycle (TCY). The device system clock (TSCLK) is derived from an external system clock. This external system clock can be generated in one of eight different oscillator modes. The device configuration bits select the oscillator mode. Device configuration bits are nonvolatile memory locations and the operating mode is determined by the value written during device programming. The oscillator modes are: • EC External Clock • ECIO External Clock with I/O pin enabled • LP Low Frequency (Power) Crystal • XT Crystal/Resonator • HS High Speed Crystal/Resonator • RC External Resistor/Capacitor • RCIO External Resistor/Capacitor with I/O pin enabled • HS4 High Speed Crystal/Resonator with 4x frequency PLL multiplier enabled Multiple oscillator circuits can be implemented on an Enhanced Architecture device. There is the default oscillator (OSC1), and additional oscillators may be available, such as the Timer1 oscillator. Software may allow these auxiliary oscillators to be switched in as the device oscillator. The Timer1 oscillator is a low frequency (low power) oscillator that is designed to be operated at 32kHz. Figure2-1 shows a block diagram of the oscillator options. The output signal of the Timer1 oscillator circuitry is a low frequency (power) clock source (TT1P). The source for the device system clock can be switched from the default clock (TSCLK) to the 32kHz-clock low power clock source (TT1P) under software control. Switching to the 32kHz low frequency (power) clock source from any of the eight default clock sources may allow power saving. These oscillator options are made available to allow a single device type the flexibility to fit applications with different oscillator requirements. The RC oscillator option saves system cost, while the LP crystal option saves power. The HS4 option allows frequency of incoming crystal oscillator signal to be multiplied by four for higher internal clock frequency. This is useful for customers who are concerned with EMI due to high frequency crystals. The device configuration bits are used to select these various options.

The user can program up to three device configuration bits (FOSC2:FOSC0) to select one of eight modes. 2.3.1 Oscillator Types PIC18CXXX devices can have up to eight different oscillator modes for the default clock source (TSCLK). These eight modes are: • EC External Clock • ECIO External Clock with IO pin enabled • LP Low Frequency (Power) Crystal • XT Crystal/Resonator • HS High Speed Crystal/Resonator • RC External Resistor/Capacitor • RCIO External Resistor/Capacitor with IO pin enabled • HS4 High Speed Crystal/Resonator with 4x frequency PLL multiplier enabled The main difference between the LP, XT and HS modes is the gain of the internal inverter of the oscillator circuit, which allows the different frequency ranges. Table 2-1 gives information to aid in selecting an oscillator mode. In general, use the oscillator option with the lowest possible gain that still meets specifications. This will result in lower dynamic currents (IDD). The frequency range of each oscillator mode is the recommended frequency cutoff, but the selection of a different gain mode is acceptable as long as a thorough validation is performed (voltage, temperature, component variations (resistor, capacitor, and internal microcontroller oscillator circuitry). Switching the system clock source to the alternate clock source is controlled by the application software. The user can switch from any of the eight default clock sources. This is done by setting the SCS (System Clock Switch) bit in the OSCCON register. The requirements for switching to the alternate clock source are: • Timer1 clock oscillator must be enabled (T1OSCEN is set ’1’). • The OSCEN configuration bit must be cleared (‘0’). 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 4 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Oscillator Oscillator 2 2.4.1 Oscillator/Resonator Start-up As the device voltage increases from VSS, the oscillator will start its oscillations. The time required for the oscillator to start oscillating depends on many factors. These include: • Crystal/resonator frequency • Capacitor values used (C1 and C2 in Figure2-2) • Device VDD rise time • System temperature • Series resistor value and type if used (Rs in Figure2-2) • Oscillator mode selection of device (selects the gain of the internal oscillator inverter) • Crystal quality • Oscillator circuit layout • System noise Figure2-4 graphs an example oscillator/resonator start-up. The peak-to-peak voltage of the oscillator waveform can be quite low (less than 50% of device VDD), when the waveform is centered at VDD/2 (refer to parameters D033 and D043 in the “Electrical Specifications” section).

A series resistor, Rs, may be required if an AT strip cut crystal is used. Be sure to include the device’s operating voltage and the device’s manufacturing process when determining resistor requirements.

There are many factors that go into the selection and arrangement of these external components. These factors include: • amplifier gain • desired frequency • resonant frequency(s) of the crystal • temperature of operation • supply voltage range • start-up time • stability • crystal life • power consumption • simplification of the circuit • use of standard components • combination which results in fewest components 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 10 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39502A-page 2-11 Section 2. Oscillator Oscillator 2 2.4.3.1 Determining Best Values for Crystals, Clock Mode, C1, C2, and Rs The best method for selecting components is to apply a little knowledge and a lot of trial, measurement, and testing. Crystals are usually selected by their parallel resonant frequency only, however other parameters may be important to your design, such as temperature or frequency tolerance. Application Note AN588 is an excellent reference if you would like to know more about crystal operation and their ordering information. The PICmicro’s internal oscillator circuit is a parallel oscillator circuit, which requires that a parallel resonant crystal be selected. The load capacitance is usually specified in the 20 pF to 32 pF range. The crystal will oscillate closest to the desired frequency with capacitance in this range. It may be necessary to sometimes alter these values a bit, as described later, in order to achieve other benefits. Clock mode is primarily chosen by using the FOSC parameter specification (parameter 1A) in the device data sheet, based on frequency. Clock modes (except RC and EC) are simply gain selections; lower gain for lower frequencies, higher gain for higher frequencies. It is possible to select a higher or lower gain, if desired, based on the specific needs of the oscillator circuit. C1 and C2 should also be initially selected based on the load capacitance as suggested by the crystal manufacturer and the tables supplied in the device data sheet. The values given in the device data sheet can only be used as a starting point, since the crystal manufacturer, supply voltage, and other factors already mentioned may cause your circuit to differ from the one used in the factory characterization process. Ideally, the capacitance is chosen so that it will oscillate at the highest temperature and lowest VDD that the circuit will be expected to perform under. High temperature and low VDD both have a limiting effect on the loop gain, such that if the circuit functions at these extremes, the designer can be more assured of proper operation at other temperatures and supply voltage combinations. The output sine wave should not be clipped in the highest gain environment (highest VDD and lowest temperature) and the sine output amplitude should be great enough in the lowest gain environment (lowest VDD and highest temperature) to cover the logic input requirements of the clock as listed in the device data sheet. A method for improving start-up is to use a value of C2 greater than C1. This causes a greater phase shift across the crystal at power-up, which speeds oscillator start-up. Besides loading the crystal for proper frequency response, these capacitors can have the effect of lowering loop gain if their value is increased. C2 can be selected to affect the overall gain of the circuit. A higher C2 can lower the gain if the crystal is being over driven (see also discussion on Rs). Capacitance values that are too high can store and dump too much current through the crystal, so C1 and C2 should not become excessively large. Unfortunately, measuring the wattage through a crystal is tricky business, but if you do not stray too far from the suggested values, you should not have to be concerned with this. A series resistor, Rs, is added to the circuit if, after all other external components are selected to satisfaction, the crystal is still being overdriven. This can be determined by looking at the OSC2 pin, which is the driven pin, with an oscilloscope. Connecting the probe to the OSC1 pin will load the pin too much and negatively affect performance. Remember that a scope probe adds its own capacitance to the circuit, so this may have to be accounted for in your design, (i.e. if the circuit worked best with a C2 of 20 pF and scope probe was 10 pF, a 30 pF capacitor may actually be called for). The output signal should not be clipping or squashed. Overdriving the crystal can also lead to the circuit jumping to a higher harmonic level or even crystal damage. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39502A-page 2-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. The OSC2 signal should be a clean sine wave that easily spans the input minimum and maximum of the clock input pin (4V to 5V peak to peak for a 5V VDD is usually good). An easy way to set this is to again test the circuit at the minimum temperature and maximum VDD that the design will be expected to perform in, then look at the output. This should be the maximum amplitude of the clock output. If there is clipping or the sine wave is squashing near VDD and VSS at the top and bottom, increasing load capacitors will risk too much current through the crystal or push the value too far from the manufacturer’s load specification. Add a trimpot between the output pin and C2, and adjust it until the sine wave is clean. Keeping it fairly close to maximum amplitude at the low temperature and high VDD combination will assure this is the maximum amplitude the crystal will see and prevent overdriving. A series resistor, Rs, of the closest standard value can now be inserted in place of the trimpot. If Rs is too high, perhaps more than 20k ohms, the input will be too isolated from the output, making the clock more susceptible to noise. If you find a value this high is needed to prevent overdriving the crystal, try increasing C2 to compensate. Try to get a combination where Rs is around 10k or less and load capacitance is not too far from the 20 pF or 32 pF manufacturer specification. 2.4.3.1.1 Start-up The most difficult time for the oscillator to start-up is when waking up from sleep. This is because the load capacitors have both partially charged to some quiescent value, and phase differential at wake-up is minimal. Thus, more time is required to achieve stable oscillation. Remember also that low voltage, high temperatures and the lower frequency clock modes also impose limitations on loop gain, which in turn affects start-up. Each of the following factors makes the start-up time worse: • a low frequency design (with its low gain clock mode) • a quiet environment (such as a battery operated device) • operating in a shielded box (away from the noisy RF area) • low voltage • high temperature • waking up from sleep. Noise actually helps a design for oscillator start-up, since it helps “kick start” the oscillator. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 12 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39502A-page 2-13 Section 2. Oscillator Oscillator 2 2.4.4 External Clock Input Two of the oscillator modes use an external clock. These modes are EC and ECIO oscillator modes. In the EC mode (Figure2-5), the OSC1 pin can be driven by CMOS drivers. In this mode, the OSC1/CLKI pin is hi-impedance and the OSC2/CLKO pin is the CLKO output (FOSC/4). The output is at a frequency of the selected oscillator divided by 4. This output clock is useful for testing or synchronization purposes. If the power-up timer is disabled, then there is no time-out after a POR, or else there will be a power-up timer. There is always a power-up time after a brown-out reset. The feedback device between OSC1 and OSC2 is turned off to save current. There is no oscillator start-up time required after wake-up from sleep mode. If the power-up timer is disabled, then there is no time-out after a POR, or else (power-up timer enabled) there will be a power-up timer delay after POR. There is always a power-up timer after a brown-out reset.

Since Microchip does not recommend connecting other logic to the PICmicro’s internal oscillator circuit, an external crystal oscillator circuit is recommended. Each device will then have an external clock source, and the number of devices that can be driven will depend on the buffer drive capability. This circuit is also useful when more than one device needs to operate synchronously to each other. Either a prepackaged oscillator can be used or a simple oscillator circuit with TTL gates can be built. Prepackaged oscillators provide a wide operating range and better stability. A well-designed crystal oscillator will provide good performance with TTL gates. Two types of crystal oscillator circuits can be used; one with series resonance or one with parallel resonance. Figure2-7 shows implementation of an external parallel resonant oscillator circuit. The circuit is designed to use the fundamental frequency of the crystal. The 74AS04 inverter performs the 180-degree phase shift that a parallel oscillator requires. The 4.7 kΩ resistor affects the circuit in three ways: 1. Provides negative feedback. 2. Biases the 74AS04 (#1) into the linear region. 3. Bounds the gain of the amplifier. The 10 kΩ potentiometer is used to prevent overdriving of the crystal. It dissipates the power of the amplifier and allows the requirements of the crystal to be met. Figure 2-7: External Parallel Resonant Crystal Oscillator Circuit Figure2-8 shows an external series resonant oscillator circuit. This circuit is also designed to use the fundamental frequency of the crystal. The inverter performs a 180-degree phase shift in a series resonant oscillator circuit. The 330 kΩ resistors provide the negative feedback to bias the inverters in their linear region.

DS39502A-page 2-15 Section 2. Oscillator Oscillator 2 2.5 External RC Oscillator For timing insensitive applications, the RC and RCIO device options offer additional cost savings. The RC oscillator frequency is a function of the: • Supply voltage • External resistor (REXT) values • External capacitor (CEXT) values • Operating temperature In addition to this, the oscillator frequency will vary from unit to unit due to normal process parameter variation. Furthermore, the difference in lead frame capacitance between package types will also affect the oscillation frequency, especially for low CEXT values. The user also needs to take into account variation due to tolerance of external REXT and CEXT components used. Figure2-9 shows how the RC combination is connected. For REXT values below 2.2 kΩ, oscillator operation may become unstable, or stop completely. For very high REXT values (e.g. 1 MΩ), the oscillator becomes sensitive to noise, humidity and leakage. Thus, we recommend keeping REXT between 3 kΩ and 100 kΩ. Figure 2-9: RC Oscillator Mode Although the oscillator will operate with no external capacitor (CEXT = 0 pF), we recommend using values above 20 pF for noise and stability reasons. With no or a small external capacitance, the oscillation frequency can vary dramatically due to changes in external capacitances, such as PCB trace capacitance and package lead frame capacitance. See characterization data for RC frequency variation from part to part due to normal process variation. The variation is larger for larger resistance (since leakage current variation will affect RC frequency more for large R) and for smaller capacitance (since variation of input capacitance will affect RC frequency more). See characterization data for the variation of oscillator frequency due to VDD for given REXT/CEXT values, as well as frequency variation due to operating temperature for given REXT, CEXT and VDD values. The oscillator frequency, divided by 4, is available on the OSC2/CLKO pin, and can be used for test purposes or to synchronize other logic (see Figure 4-3: "Clock/Instruction Cycle" in the “Architecture” section, for waveform).

The time required for the RC to start oscillating depends on many factors. These include: • Resistor value used • Capacitor value used • Device VDD rise time • System temperature There is no oscillator start-up time (TOST) regardless of the source of reset or when sleep is terminated.

For an input clock frequency of 10 MHz, the internal clock frequency will be multiplied to 40 MHz. This is useful for customers who are concerned with EMI due to high frequency crystals. The PLL can only be enabled when the oscillator configuration bits are programmed for HS4 mode (FOSC2:FOSC0 = ‘110’). If they are programmed for any other mode, the PLL is not enabled and the system clock will come directly from OSC1. The oscillator mode is specified during device programming. The PLL is divided into four basic parts (see Figure2-11): • Phase comparator • Loop filter • VCO (Voltage Controlled Oscillator) • Feedback divider When in HS4 mode, the incoming clock is sampled by the phase comparator and is compared to PLL output clock divided by four. If the two are not in phase, the phase comparator drives an input to the loop filter to "pump" the voltage to the VCO, either up or down, depending upon whether the input clock was leading or lagging the output clock. This process continues until the incoming clock on OSC1 and the divide by 4 output clock of the VCO are in phase. The output clock is now "locked" in phase with the incoming clock, and its frequency is four times greater. A PLL lock timer is used to ensure that the PLL has locked before device execution starts. The PLL lock timer has a time-out that is called TPLL. This delay is shown in Figure2-14.

Oscillator Oscillator 2 2.7 Switching to Low Power Clock Source This feature allows the clock source to switch from the default clock source that is selected by the FOSC2:FOSC0 bits to the Timer1 oscillator clock source. The availability of this feature is device dependent. 2.7.1 Switching Oscillator Mode Option This feature is enabled by clearing the Oscillator System Clock Switch Enable (OSCSEN) configuration bit. This provides the ability to switch to a low power execution mode if the alternate clock source (such as Timer1) is configured in oscillator mode with a low frequency (32 kHz, for example) crystal. The enabling of the low power clock source is determined by the state of the SCS control bit in the Oscillator control register (OSCCON). (Register 2-1) 2.7.1.2 System Clock Switch Bit The system clock switch bit, SCS (OSCCON) controls the switching of the oscillator source. It can be configured for either the Timer1 Oscillator clock source, or the default clock source (selected by the Fosc2:Fosc0 bits). When the SCS bit is set, it enables the Timer1 Oscillator clock source as the system clock. When the SCS bit is cleared, the system clock comes from the clock source specified by the Fosc2:Fosc0 bits. The SCS bit is cleared on all forms of reset. Note: The Timer1 oscillator must be enabled in order to switch the system clock source. The Timer1 oscillator is enabled by setting the T1OSCEN bit in the Timer1 Control Register (T1CON). If the Timer1 oscillator is not enabled, then any write to the SCS bit will be ignored, and the SCS bit will remain in the default state with the clock source coming from OSC1 or the PLL output. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 19 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39502A-page 2-20  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 2.7.2 Oscillator Transitions Switching from the default clock to the Timer1 Oscillator clock source is controlled as shown in the flow diagram (Figure2-16). This ensures a clean transition when switching oscillator clocks. Circuitry is used to prevent "glitches" due to transitions when switching from the default clock source to the low power clock source and vice versa. Essentially, the circuitry waits for eight rising edges of the clock input to which the processor is switching. This ensures that the clock output pulse width will not be less than the shortest pulse width of the two clock sources. No additional delays are required when switching from the default clock source to the low power clock source. Figure2-12 through Figure2-15 show different transition waveforms when switching between the oscillators.

Oscillator Oscillator 2 Figure 2-14: Transition Between Timer1 and OSC1 Waveform (HS4) Figure 2-15: Transition Between Timer1 and OSC1 Waveform (RC, EC, ECIO) Additional delays may occur before switching from the low power clock source back to the main oscillator. The sequence of events that take place will depend upon the main oscillator setting in the configuration register (the mode of the main oscillator). If the main oscillator is configured as a RC oscillator (RC, RCIO) or External Clock (EC, ECIO), then there is no oscillator start-up time. The transition from a low power clock to the main oscillator occurs after 8 clock cycles are counted on OSC1. If the main oscillator is configured as a crystal (HS4, HS, XT or LP), then the transition will take place after an oscillator start-up time (TOST). If the main oscillator is configured as a crystal with PLL (HS4) enabled, then the transition will take place after an oscillator start-up time (TOST) plus an additional PLL time-out, TPLL (see “Electrical Specifications” section, parameter 32). This is necessary because the crystal oscillator had been powered down until the time of the transition. In order to provide the system with a reliable clock when the change-over has occurred, the clock will not be released to the change-over circuit until the oscillator start-up time has expired. The additional TPLL time is required after oscillator start-up to allow the phase lock loop ample time to lock to the incoming oscillator frequency from OSC1.

Oscillator Oscillator 2 2.8 Effects of Sleep Mode on the On-Chip Oscillator When the device executes a SLEEP instruction, the on-chip clocks and oscillator are turned off and the device is held at the beginning of an instruction cycle (Q1 state). With the oscillator off, the OSC1 and OSC2 signals will stop oscillating. Since all the transistor switching currents have been removed, SLEEP mode achieves the lowest current consumption of the device (only leakage currents). Enabling any on-chip feature that will operate during SLEEP will increase the current consumed. The user can wake from SLEEP through external reset, Watchdog Timer Reset or through an interrupt. See Table 3-1 in the “Reset” section for time-outs due to SLEEP and MCLR reset. Table 2-4: OSC1 and OSC2 Pin States in Sleep Mode 2.9 Effects of Device Reset on the On-Chip Oscillator Device resets have no effect on the on-chip crystal oscillator circuitry. The oscillator will continue to operate as it does under normal execution. While in RESET, the device logic is held at the Q1 state so that when the device exits RESET, it is at the beginning of an instruction cycle. The OSC2 pin, when used as the external clockout (RC, EC mode), will be held low during RESET, and as soon as the MCLR pin is at VIH (input high voltage), the RC will start to oscillate. See Table 3-1 in the “Reset” section for time-outs due to SLEEP and MCLR reset. 2.9.1 Power-up Delays Power-up delays are controlled by two timers, so that no external reset circuitry is required for most applications. The delays ensure that the device is kept in RESET until the device power supply and clock are stable. For additional information on RESET operation, see the “Reset” section. The Power-up Timer (PWRT) provides a fixed 72 ms delay on power-up due to POR or BOR, and keeps the part in RESET until the device power supply is stable. When a crystal is used (LP, XT, HS), the Oscillator Start-Up Timer (OST) keeps the chip in RESET until the PWRT timer delay has expired, allowing the crystal oscillator to stabilize on power up. The PWRTEN bit must be cleared for this time-out to occur. When the PLL is enabled (HS4 oscillator mode), the Power-up Timer (PWRT) is used to keep the device in RESET for an extra nominal delay (TPLL) above crystal mode. This delay ensures that the PLL is locked to the crystal frequency. For additional information on RESET operation, see the “Reset” section.

What can cause this? Answer 1: 1. Executing a SLEEP instruction with no source for wake-up (such as, WDT, MCLR, or an Interrupt). Verify that the code does not put the device to SLEEP without providing for wake-up. If it is possible, try waking it up with a low pulse on MCLR. Powering up with MCLR held low will also give the crystal oscillator more time to start-up, but the Program Counter will not advance until the MCLR pin is high. 2. The wrong clock mode is selected for the desired frequency. For a blank device, the default oscillator is RCIO. Most parts come with the clock selected in the default RC mode, which will not start oscillation with a crystal or resonator. Verify that the clock mode has been programmed correctly. 3. The proper power-up sequence has not been followed. If a CMOS part is powered through an I/O pin prior to power-up, bad things can happen (latch up, improper start-up, etc.) It is also possible for brown-out conditions, noisy power lines at start-up, and slow VDD rise times to cause problems. Try powering up the device with nothing connected to the I/O, and power-up with a known, good, fast-rise, power supply. Refer to the power-up information in the device data sheet for considerations on brown-out and power-up sequences. 4. The C1 and C2 capacitors attached to the crystal have not been connected properly or are not the correct values. Make sure all connections are correct. The device data sheet values for these components will usually get the oscillator running; however, they just might not be the optimal values for your design. Question 2: The PICmicro device starts, but runs at a frequency much higher than the resonant frequency of the crystal. Answer 2: The gain is too high for this oscillator circuit. Refer to subsection 2.4 “Crystal Oscillators/Ceramic Resonators” to aid in the selection of C2 (may need to be higher) Rs (may be needed) and clock mode (wrong mode may be selected). This is especially possible for low frequency crystals, like the common 32.768 kHz. Question 3: The design runs fine, but the frequency is slightly off. What can be done to adjust this? Answer 3: Changing the value of C1 has some effect on the oscillator frequency. If a SERIES resonant crystal is used, it will resonate at a different frequency than a PARALLEL resonant crystal of the same frequency call-out. Ensure that you are using a PARALLEL resonant crystal. Question 4: The board works fine, then suddenly quits or loses time. Answer 4: Other than the obvious software checks that should be done to investigate losing time, it is possible that the amplitude of the oscillator output is not high enough to reliably trigger the oscillator input. Look at the C1 and C2 values and ensure that the the device configuration bits are correct for the desired oscillator mode. Question 5: If I put an oscilloscope probe on an oscillator pin, I don’t see what I expect. Why? Answer 5: Remember that an oscilloscope probe has capacitance. Connecting the probe to the oscillator circuitry will modify the oscillator characteristics. Consider using a low capacitance (active) probe. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 24 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39502A-page 2-25 Section 2.

The source of the reset can be determined by reading the device status bits. The reset logic is designed with features that reduce system cost and increase system reliability. Devices differentiate between various kinds of reset: a) Power-on Reset (POR) b) MCLR Reset during normal operation c) MCLR Reset during SLEEP d) WDT Reset (normal operation) e) Programmable Brown-out Reset (BOR) f) RESET Instruction g) Stack Overflow Reset h) Stack Underflow Reset Most registers are unaffected by a reset; their status is unknown on POR and unchanged by all other resets. The other registers are forced to a “reset state” on Power-on Reset, MCLR, WDT Reset, Brown-out Reset, MCLR Reset during SLEEP and by the RESET instruction. Most registers are not affected by a WDT wake-up, since this is viewed as the resumption of normal operation. Status bits from the RCON register, RI, TO, PD, POR and BOR are set or cleared differently in different reset situations as indicated in Table 3-3. These bits are used in software to determine the nature of the reset. See Table 3-4 for a full description of the reset states of all registers. A simplified block diagram of the on-chip reset circuit is shown in Figure 3-1. This block diagram is a superset of reset features. To determine the features that are available on a specific device, please refer to the device’s Data Sheet. Note: While the Enhanced MCU is in a reset state, the internal phase clock is held at Q1 (beginning of an instruction cycle). 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Depending on the source of the reset, different delays may be initiated. These reset sources and the delays are discussed in the following subsections. 3.2.1 Power-on Reset (POR) A Power-on Reset pulse is generated on-chip when VDD rise is detected. To take advantage of the POR, just tie the MCLR pin directly (or through a resistor) to VDD as shown in Figure 3-2. This will eliminate external RC components usually needed to create a Power-on Reset delay. A minimum rise time for VDD is required. See parameter D003 and parameter D004 in the “Electrical Specifications” section for details. Figure 3-2: Using On-Chip POR When the device exits the reset condition (begins normal operation), the device operating parameters (voltage, frequency, temperature, etc.) must be within their operating ranges, otherwise the device will not function correctly. Ensure the delay is long enough to get all operating parameters within specification. Figure 3-3 shows a possible POR circuit for a slow power supply ramp up. The external Power-on Reset circuit is only required if the device would exit reset before the device VDD is in the valid operating range. The diode, D, helps discharge the capacitor quickly when VDD powers down.

C R1 D R MCLR PIC18CXXX  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39503A-page 3-5 Section 3. Reset Reset 3 3.2.2 Power-up Timer (PWRT) The Power-up Timer provides a delay on Power-on Reset (POR) or Brown-out Reset (BOR). See parameter D033 in the ““Electrical Specifications” section. The Power-up Timer operates on a dedicated internal RC oscillator. The device is kept in reset as long as the PWRT is active. The PWRT delay allows VDD to rise to an acceptable level. A configuration bit (PWRTEN) is provided to enable/disable the Power-up Timer. The power-up time delay will vary from device to device due to VDD, temperature and process variations. See DC parameters for details. 3.2.3 Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) The Oscillator Start-Up Timer (OST) provides a 1024 oscillator cycle delay (from OSC1 input) (parameter 32) after the PWRT delay is over. This ensures that the crystal oscillator or resonator has started and is stable. The OST time-out is invoked only for XT, LP and HS modes, on Power-on Reset, Brown-out Reset, wake-up from SLEEP, or on a transition from Timer1 input clock as the system clock to the oscillator as the system clock by clearing the SCS bit. The oscillator start-up timer is disabled for all resets and wake-ups in RC and EC modes. (See Table 3-1) The OST counts the oscillator pulses on the OSC1/CLKIN pin. The counter only starts incrementing after the amplitude of the signal reaches the oscillator input thresholds. This delay allows the crystal oscillator or resonator to stabilize before the device exits the OST delay. The length of the time-out is a function of the crystal/resonator frequency. Figure 3-4 shows the operation of the OST circuit in conjunction with the power-up timer. For low frequency crystals, this start-up time can become quite long. That is because the time it takes the low frequency oscillator to start oscillating is longer than the power-up timer’s delay. The time from when the power-up timer times out to when the oscillator starts to oscillate is a dead time. There is no minimum or maximum time for this dead time (TDEADTIME), and is dependent on the time for the oscillator circuitry to have “good” oscillations. Figure 3-4: Oscillator Start-up Time 3.2.3.1 PLL Lock Time-out When the PLL is enabled, the time-out sequence following a Power-on Reset is different from other oscillator modes. A portion of the Power-up Timer is used to provide a fixed time-out that is sufficient for the PLL to lock to the main oscillator frequency. This PLL lock time-out TPLL (2ms nominal, Parameter 7 in the “Electrical Specifications” section) follows the Oscillator Start-up Time-out (OST). Note: Some devices require the Power-up Timer to be enabled when the Brown-out Reset circuitry is enabled. Please refer to the device data sheet for requirements.

After the PWRT time-out is over, the OST is activated. The total time-out will vary based on oscillator configuration and PWRTEN bit status. For example, in RC mode with the PWRTEN bit set (PWRT disabled), there will be no time-out at all. Figure 3-5, Figure 3-6 and Figure 3-7 depict time-out sequences. Since the time-outs occur from the internal POR pulse, if MCLR is kept low long enough, the time-outs will expire. Bringing MCLR high will begin execution immediately (Figure 3-7). This is useful for testing purposes or to synchronize more than one device operating in parallel. If the device voltage is not within the electrical specifications by the end of a time-out, the MCLR/VPP pin must be held low until the voltage is within the device specification. The use of an external RC delay is sufficient for many of these applications. On wake-up from sleep, the OST is activated for various oscillator configurations. When the PLL is activated in HS mode, an additional delay called TPLL (2 ms nominal) is added to the OST time-out to allow the necessary lock time for the PLL. See parameter D003 in the “Electrical Specifications” section for details. Table 3-1 shows the time-outs that occur in various situations, while Figure 3-5 through Figure 3-8 show four different cases that can happen on powering up the device.

DS39503A-page 3-9 Section 3. Reset Reset 3 3.2.5 Brown-Out Reset (BOR) On-chip Brown-out Reset circuitry places the device into reset when the device voltage (VDD) falls below a trip point (VBOR). This ensures that the device does not continue program execution outside the valid voltage operation range of the device. Brown-out resets are typically used in AC line applications (such as appliances) or large battery applications where large loads may be switched in (such as automotive). Appliances encounter brown-out situations during plug-in and online voltage dip. Automotive electronics encounter brown-out when the ignition key is turned. In these application scenarios, the device voltage temporarily falls below the specified operating minimum. If the brown-out circuit meets the current consumption requirements of the system, it may also be used as a voltage supervisory function. Figure 3-10 shows typical brown-out situations. The Brown-out Reset module is enabled by default. To disable the module, the BOREN configuration bit must be cleared at device programming. Figure 3-10: Brown-Out Situations Note: Before using the on-chip brown-out for a voltage supervisory function (monitor battery decay), please review the electrical specifications to ensure that they meet your requirements. Note 1: It is recommended that the power-up timer be enabled when using the BOR module. The power-up timer is enabled by programming the PWRTEN configuration bit to ‘0’. Note 2: Some devices require the Power-up Timer to be enabled when the Brown-out Reset circuitry is enabled. Please refer to the device data sheet for requirements.

If VDD falls below VBOR (parameter D005 in the “Electrical Specifications” section), for greater than the Brown-out Pulse Width Time (TBOR), parameter 35, the brown-out situation will reset the chip. A reset is not guaranteed to occur if VDD falls below VBOR for less than parameter 35. The chip will remain in Brown-out Reset until VDD rises above VBOR. After which, the Power-up Timer is invoked and will keep the chip in reset an additional time delay (parameter 33). If VDD drops below VBOR while the Power-up Timer is running, the chip will go back into Reset and the Power-up Timer will be re-initialized. Once VDD rises above VBOR, the Power-up Timer will again start a time delay. When the BOREN bit is set, all voltages below VBOR will hold the device in the reset state. This includes during the power-up sequence. The brown-out trip point is user programmable at time of device programming. Figure 3-11 is a block diagram for the BOR circuit.

DS39503A-page 3-11 Section 3. Reset Reset 3 The Brown-out Reset circuit has four available reset trip point voltages. The device selected determines which trip points make sense in an application. All devices have the trip points of 4.2V and 4.5V available. PIC18LCXXX devices add two more trip points. The first is 2.7V, while the second is dependent on the minimum operating voltage of that device. This means that the lowest trip point voltage will either be 2.5V or 1.8V. Table 3-2 shows the state of the configuration bits (BORV1:BORV0) and the BOR trip points that they select. Table 3-2: Example BOR Trip Point Levels The BOR is programmable to ensure that the BOR can be optimized to the voltage-frequency of the device, since the minimum device VDD value will depend on the frequency of operation. For example, VDD min. at 40 MHz may be 4.2V, whereas at 2 MHz it may be 1.8V.

These are: 1. Current from Internal Reference Voltage 2. Current from BOR comparator 3. Current from resistor ladder The Internal Reference Voltage is also used by the Low Voltage Detect circuitry and the A/D voltage references. The resistor ladder is also used by the Low Voltage Detect circuitry. If the Low Voltage Detect is enabled, then only the additional current of the comparator is added for enabling the BOR feature. When the module is enabled, the BOR comparator and voltage divider are enabled and consume static current. The “Electrical Specifications” section parameter 32 gives the current specification. The Brown-out Comparator circuit consumes current when enabled. To eliminate this current consumption, the Brown-out Reset can be disabled by programming the Brown-out Reset Enable configuration bit (BOREN) to '0'. 3.2.5.3 BOR Initialization The BOR module must be enabled and programmed through the device configuration bits. These include BOREN, which enables or disables the module, and BORV1:BORV0, which set the BOR voltage. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 12 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Reset Reset 3 3.3.1 Reset Control (RCON) Register The Reset Control (RCON) register contains flag bits to allow differentiation between resets. The Reset Control register has seven bits. The POR (Power-on Reset) bit is cleared on a Power-on Reset and is unaffected otherwise. The user sets this bit following a Power-on Reset. On subsequent resets, if the POR bit is clear (= ‘0’), it will indicate that a Power-on Reset must have occurred. The power-down bit (PD) provides indication if the device was placed into sleep mode. It is set by a power-up, a CLRWDT instruction or by user software. The PD bit is cleared when the SLEEP instruction is executed or by user software. Register 3-2: RCON Register Note: The state of the BOR bit is unknown on Power-on Reset. It must be set by the user and checked on subsequent resets to see if the BOR bit is clear, indicating a brown-out has occurred. The BOR status bit is a “don't care” and is not necessarily predictable if the brown-out circuit is disabled (by clearing the BOREN bit in the Configuration register).

These include: • Harvard architecture • Long Word Instructions • Single Word Instructions • Single Cycle Instructions • Instruction Pipelining • Reduced Instruction Set • Register File Architecture • Orthogonal (Symmetric) Instructions Figure 4-2 shows a general block diagram for PIC18CXXX devices. Harvard Architecture: Harvard architecture has the program memory and data memory as separate memories which are accessed from separate buses. This improves bandwidth over traditional von Neumann architecture in which program and data are fetched from the same memory using the same bus. To execute an instruction, a von Neumann machine must make one or more (generally more) accesses across the 8-bit bus to fetch the instruction. Then data may need to be fetched, operated on and possibly written. As can be seen from this description, the bus can become extremely congested. With a Harvard architecture, the instruction is fetched in a single instruction cycle (all 16 bits). While the program memory is being accessed, the data memory is on an independent bus and can be read and written. These separated busses allow one instruction to execute, while the next instruction is fetched. A comparison of Harvard and von Neumann architectures is shown in Figure 4-1. Figure 4-1: Harvard vs. von Neumann Block Architectures Long Word Instructions: Long word instructions have a wider (more bits) instruction bus than the 8-bit data memory bus. This is possible because the two buses are separate. This allows instructions to be sized differently than the 8-bit wide data word and allows a more efficient use of the program memory, since the program memory width is optimized to the architectural requirements. Single Word Instructions: Single word instruction opcodes are 16-bits wide making it possible to have all but a few instructions be single word instructions. A 16-bit wide program memory access bus fetches a 16-bit instruction in a single cycle. With single word instructions, the number of words of program memory locations equals the number of instructions for the device. This means that all locations are valid instructions. Typically in the von Neumann architecture, most instructions are multi-byte. In general, a device with 4 Kbytes of program memory would allow approximately 2K of instructions. This 2:1 ratio is generalized and dependent on the application code. Since each instruction may take multiple bytes, there is no assurance that each location is a valid instruction. Program Memory Data Memory Program Memory and Data CPU CPU 8 16 8 Harvard von Neumann 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39504A-page 4-3 Section 4 Architecture Architechture 4 Double Word Instructions: Some operations require more information then can be stored in the 16 bits of a program memory location. These operations require a double word instruction, and are therefore 32-bits wide. Instructions that require this second instruction word are: • Memory to memory move instruction (12 bits for each RAM address) - MOVFF SourceReg, DestReg • Literal value to FSR move instruction (12 bits for data and 2 bits for FSR to load) - LFSR FSR#, Address • Call and goto operations (20 bits for address) - CALL Address - GOTO Address The first word indicates to the CPU that the next program memory location is the additional information for this instruction and not an instruction. If the CPU tries to execute the second word of an instruction (due to a software modified PC pointing to that location as an instruction), the fetched data is executed as a NOP. Double word instruction execution is not split between the two TCY cycles by an interrupt request. That is, when an interrupt request occurs during the execution of a double word instruction, the execution of the instruction is completed before the processor vectors to the interrupt address. The interrupt latency is preserved. Instruction Pipeline: The instruction pipeline is a two-stage pipeline that overlaps the fetch and execution of instructions. The fetch of the instruction takes one TCY, while the execution takes another TCY. However, due to the overlap of the fetch of current instruction and execution of previous instruction, an instruction is fetched and another instruction is executed every TCY. Single Cycle Instructions: With the program memory bus being 16-bits wide, the entire instruction is fetched in a single machine cycle (TCY), except for double word instructions. The instruction contains all the information required and is executed in a single cycle. There may be a one cycle delay in execution if the result of the instruction modified the contents of the program counter. This requires the pipeline to be flushed and a new instruction to be fetched. Two Cycle Instructions: Double word instructions require two cycles to execute, since all the required information is in the 32 bits. Reduced Instruction Set: When an instruction set is well designed and highly orthogonal (symmetric), fewer instructions are required to perform all needed tasks. With fewer instructions, the whole set can be more rapidly learned. Register File Architecture: The register files/data memory can be directly or indirectly addressed. All special function registers, including the program counter, are mapped in the data memory. Orthogonal (Symmetric) Instructions: Orthogonal instructions make it possible to carry out any operation on any register using any addressing mode. This symmetrical nature and lack of “special instructions” make programming simple yet efficient. In addition, the learning curve is reduced significantly. The Enhanced MCU instruction set uses only three non-register oriented instructions, which are used for two of the cores features. One is the SLEEP instruction, which places the device into the lowest power use mode. The second is the CLRWDT instruction, which verifies the chip is operating properly by preventing the on-chip Watchdog Timer (WDT) from overflowing and resetting the device. The third is the RESET instruction, which resets the device. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 3 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39504A-page 4-4  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The instruction is decoded and executed during the following Q1 through Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow are illustrated in Figure 4-3 and Example 4-1. Figure 4-3: Clock/Instruction Cycle 4.2.1 Phase Lock Loop (PLL) The clock input is multiplied by four by the PLL. Therefore, when it is internally divided by four, it provides an instruction cycle that is the same frequency as the external clock frequency. Four non-overlapping quadrature clocks, namely Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 are still generated internally. Internally, the program counter (PC) is incremented every Q1, and the instruction is fetched from the program memory and latched into the instruction register in Q4. The instruction is decoded and executed during the following Q1 through Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow are illustrated in Figure 4-4 and Example 4-1.

Fetch takes one instruction cycle, while decode and execute takes another instruction cycle. However, due to pipelining, each instruction effectively executes in one cycle. If an instruction causes the program counter to change (e.g. GOTO instruction), then an extra cycle is required to complete the instruction (See Example 4-1). The instruction fetch begins with the program counter incrementing in Q1. In the execution cycle, the fetched instruction is latched into the “Instruction Register (IR)” in cycle Q1. This instruction is then decoded and executed during the Q2, Q3 and Q4 cycles. Data memory is read during Q2 (operand read) and written during Q4 (destination write). Example 4-1 shows the operation of the two stage pipeline for the instruction sequence shown. At time TCY0, the first instruction is fetched from program memory. During TCY1, the first instruction executes, while the second instruction is fetched. During TCY2, the second instruction executes, while the third instruction is fetched. During TCY3, the fourth instruction is fetched, while the third instruction (CALL SUB_1) is executed. When the third instruction completes execution, the CPU forces the address of instruction four onto the Stack and then changes the Program Counter (PC) to the address of SUB_1. This means that the instruction that was fetched during TCY3 needs to be “flushed” from the pipeline. During TCY4, instruction four is flushed (executed as a NOP) and the instruction at address SUB_1 is fetched. Finally during TCY5, instruction five is executed and the instruction at address SUB_1 + 2 is fetched. Example 4-1: Instruction Pipeline Flow Most instructions are single cycle. Program branches take two cycles, since the fetch instruction is “flushed” from the pipeline while the new instruction is being fetched and then executed. TCY0 TCY1 TCY2 TCY3 TCY4 TCY5 1.

Many of these instructions operate on data memory. To operate on data memory, the Arithmetic Logical Unit (ALU) is required. In addition to performing arithmetical and logical operations, the ALU controls the state of the status bits, which are found in the STATUS register. The result of some instructions force status bits to a value depending on the state of the result. The machine codes that the CPU recognizes are shown in Table 5-1, as well as the instruction mnemonics that the MPASM uses to generate these codes. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

For example, if the data latch is '1' for a pin configured as input and is driven low by an external device, the data will be written back with a '0'. 2: If this instruction is executed on the TMR0 register (and, where applicable, d = 1), the prescaler will be cleared if assigned to the Timer0 Module. 3: If Program Counter (PC) is modified or a conditional test is true, the instruction requires two cycles. The second cycle is executed as a NOP. 4: Some instructions are 2 word instructions. The second word of these instructions will be executed as a NOP, unless the first word retrieves the information embedded in these 16 bits.

It is responsible for fetching the correct instruction for execution, decoding that instruction and then executing that instruction. The CPU sometimes works in conjunction with the ALU to complete the execution of the instruction (in arithmetic and logical operations). The CPU controls the program memory address bus, the data memory address bus and accesses to the stack. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 7 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39505A-page 5-8  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 5.4 Instruction Clock There are three oscillator clock sources from which the device can operate. These are 1. External System Clock (TOSC) 2. Phase Lock Loop (PLL) 3. Timer1 Oscillator (TT1P) Figure 5-2 shows these clock inputs and the device clock output (TSCLK). TSCLK is the system clock. Four TSCLK cycles are an instruction cycle (TCY). The external system clock (TOSC) goes into the device and is input into a multiplexer anda4x Phase Lock Loop (PLL). The output of the PLL also enters the multiplexer and has a name TOSC/4. Some devices may also have an alternate oscillator called Timer1 oscillator (see “Timer1” section), which can provide another system clock. Timer1 has a cycle time called TT1P. This clock source also enters into the multiplexer. Figure 5-2: Device Clock Sources Each instruction cycle (TCY) is comprised of four Q cycles (Q1-Q4). The Q cycle time is the same as the system clock cycle time (TSCLK). The Q cycles provide the timing/designation for the Decode, Read, Process Data, Write, etc., of each instruction cycle. The four Q cycles that make up an instruction cycle (TCY) are shown in Figure 5-3. The relationship of the Q cycles to the instruction cycle can be generalized as: Q1: Instruction Decode Cycle or forced No Operation (NOP) Q2: Instruction Read Data Cycle or No Operation (NOP) Q3: Process the Data Q4: Instruction Write Data Cycle or No Operation (NOP) Each instruction description will show a detailed Q cycle operation for the instruction.

DS39505A-page 5-9 Section 5. CPU and ALU CPU and ALU 5 5.5 Arithmetic Logical Unit (ALU) PICmicro devices contain an 8-bit ALU and an 8-bit working register (WREG). The ALU is a general purpose arithmetic and logical unit. It performs arithmetic and Boolean functions between the data in the working register and any register file. The WREG register is directly addressable and in the SFR memory map. Figure 5-4: Operation of the ALU and WREG Register The ALU is 8-bits wide and is capable of addition, subtraction, multiplication, shift and logical operations. Unless otherwise mentioned, arithmetic operations are two's complement in nature. In two-operand instructions, typically one operand is the working register (WREG register). The other operand is a file register or an immediate constant. In single operand instructions, the operand is either the WREG register or a file register. The 8x8 multiplier operates in a single cycle, placing the 16-bit result in the PRODH:PRODL register pair. Depending on the instruction executed, the ALU may affect the values of the Carry (C), Digit Carry (DC), Zero (Z), Overflow (OV), and Negative (N) bits in the STATUS register. The C and DC bits operate as a borrow bit and a digitborrow out bit, respectively, in subtraction. See the SUBLW and SUBWF instructions in the “Instruction Set” section for examples.

The overflow bit indicates if the magnitude overflows and causes the sign bit to change state when the result of an 8-bit signed operation is greater than 127 (7Fh) or less than -128 (80h). Signed math can have greater than 7-bit values (magnitude), if more than one byte is used. The overflow bit only operates on bit6 (MSb of magnitude) and bit7 (sign bit) of each byte value in the ALU. That is, the overflow bit is not useful if trying to implement signed math where the magnitude, for example, is 11 bits. If the signed math values are greater than 7 bits (such as 15, 24 or 31 bits), the algorithm must ensure that the low order bytes of the signed value ignore the overflow status bit. Example 5-1 shows two cases of doing signed arithmetic. The Carry (C) bit and the Overflow (OV) bit are the most important status bits for signed math operations. Example 5-1: 8-bit Math Addition Case 1: The Negative bit is used to indicate if the MSb of the result is set or cleared. Hex Value Signed Values Unsigned Values FFh + 01h = 00h C bit = 1 OV bit = 0 DC bit = 1 Z bit = 1 N bit = 0 -1 + 1 = 0 (FEh) C bit = 1 OV bit = 0 DC bit = 1 Z bit = 1 N bit = 0 255 + 1 = 256 → 00h C bit = 1 OV bit = 0 DC bit = 1 Z bit = 1 N bit = 0 Case 2: Hex Value Signed Values Unsigned Values 7Fh + 01h = 80h C bit = 0 OV bit = 1 DC bit = 1 Z bit = 0 N bit = 1 127 + 1 = 128 → 00h C bit = 0 OV bit = 1 DC bit = 1 Z bit = 0 N bit = 1 127 + 1 = 128 C bit = 0 OV bit = 1 DC bit = 1 Z bit = 0 N bit = 1 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 10 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39505A-page 5-11 Section 5. CPU and ALU CPU and ALU 5 5.6 STATUS Register The STATUS register, shown in Register 5-1, contains the arithmetic status of the ALU. The STATUS register can be the destination for any instruction, as with any other register. If the STATUS register is the destination for an instruction that affects the Z, DC, C, OV or N bits, then the write to these five bits is disabled. These bits are set or cleared according to the device logic. Therefore, the result of an instruction with the STATUS register as destination may be different than intended. For example, CLRF STATUS will clear the upper three bits and set the Z bit. This leaves the STATUS register as 000u u1uu (where u = unchanged). It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF, SWAPF, MOVFF, and MOVWF instructions are used to alter the STATUS register, because these instructions do not affect the Z, C, DC, OV or N bits of the STATUS register. For other instructions, not affecting any status bits, see Table 5-1. Note 1: The C and DC bits operate as a borrow and digitborrow bit, respectively, in subtraction. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39505A-page 5-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Answer 1: There are many possible reasons for this. A couple of possibilities are: 1. The destination of the instruction may be specifying the WREG register (d = 0) instead of the file register (d = 1). 2. The access bit may be specifying the Virtual RAM Bank instead of the desired bank of RAM. When possible, the use of an In-Circuit Emulator (such as MPLAB-ICE) or a simulator (such as MPLAB-SIM) can assist in locating the reason for the unexpected execution flow. Question 2: I cannot seem to modify the STATUS register flags. Answer 2: If the STATUS register is the destination for an instruction that affects the Z, DC, C, OV or N bits, then the write to those bits is disabled. These bits are set or cleared based on device logic. Therefore, to modify bits in the STATUS register, it is recommended to use the BCF and BSF instructions. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 14 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

By making the multiplication a hardware operation, it completes in a single instruction cycle. This is an unsigned multiplication that gives a 16-bit result. The result is stored into the 16-bit Product register (PRODH:PRODL). The multiplier does not affect any flags in the ALUSTA register. Making the 8 x 8 multiplier execute in a single cycle gives the following advantages: • Higher computational throughput • Reduces code size requirements for multiplication algorithms The performance increase allows the device to be used in applications previously reserved for Digital Signal Processors. Table 6-1 shows a performance comparison between devices using the single cycle hardware multiplier and performing the same function without the hardware multiplier.

Each block has its own bus, so that access to each block can occur during the same instruction cycle. The data memory can further be broken down into General Purpose RAM and the Special Function Registers (SFRs). The operation of the SFRs that control the “core” are described here. The SFRs used to control the peripheral modules are described in the section discussing each individual peripheral module. In addition, there are other registers used that are neither part of the program nor data memory spaces. These registers are not directly addressable and include: • return address stack • fast return stack Table 7-1 shows the program memory space used depending on the memory allocated, and Table 7-2 shows the data memory space used.

DS39507A-page 7-3 Section 7. Memory Memory 7 7.2 Program Memory Enhanced MCU devices have a 21-bit program counter capable of addressing 2 Mbytes (1Mwords) of program memory space. The program memory contains instructions for execution and data tables for storing fixed data. Data tables may be written once using table write instructions and read as required, using the table read instructions. The program space is implemented as a single contiguous block. The reset vector is at address 000000h, the high priority interrupt vector is at address 000008h, and the low priority interrupt vector is at address 000018h (Figure 7-1). CALL and GOTO instructions can address any location in the memory map, while the BRA and RCALL instructions have a limited program memory reach (+1024, -1023 program memory word locations). To allow the CALL and GOTO instructions to contain the entire address, it requires that these instructions use 2 program memory words (2 word instruction). Instructions are also available to move information between the data memory and the program memory areas. These are called table operations. Table operations work with byte entities. This is discussed in detail in the “Table Read/Table Write” section.

This is known as the “Reset Vector Address”, since this is the address that program execution will branch to when a device reset occurs. Any reset will also clear the contents of the PCLATU and PCLATH registers. 7.2.2 Interrupt Vectors Two interrupt vectors are implemented; one for interrupts programmed as high priority and the other for the interrupts programmed as low priority. The vector addresses are 08h for high priority interrupts and 18h for low priority interrupts. If the interrupt priority is not used, all interrupts are treated as high priority. When an interrupt is acknowledged, the PC is forced to address 0008h or 0018h. This is known as the “Interrupt Vector Address”. When the PC is forced to the interrupt vector, the PCLATU and PCLATH registers are not modified. Once in the service interrupt routine (ISR), before any write to the PC, the PCLATH register should be written with the value that will specify the desired location in program memory. Before the PCLATH register is modified by the Interrupt Service Routine (ISR), the contents of the PCLATH may need to be saved so it can be restored before returning from the ISR. 7.2.3 Calibration Information Some devices have calibration information stored in their program memory. This information is programmed by Microchip when the device is under final test. The use of these values allows the application to achieve better results. The calibration information is typically at the end of program memory. These bytes can be accessed with the table read instructions. Note: For windowed devices, write down all calibration values BEFORE erasing. This allows the device’s calibration values to be restored when the device is re-programmed. When possible, writing the values on the package is recommended. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 4 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39507A-page 7-5 Section 7. Memory Memory 7 7.2.4 Instructions in Program Memory The program memory is addressed in bytes. Instructions are stored as two bytes or four bytes in program memory. The least significant byte of an instruction word is always stored in a program memory location with an even address (LSb = ’0’). Figure 7-2 shows an example of how instruction words are stored in the program memory. To maintain alignment with instruction boundaries, the PC increments in steps of 2 and the LSb will always read ’0’. The CALL and GOTO instructions have an absolute program memory address embedded into the instruction. Since instructions are always stored on word boundaries, the data contained in the instruction is a word address. The word address is written to PC<20:1>, which accesses the desired byte address in program memory. Instruction #2 in Figure 7-2 shows how the instruction "GOTO 000006h’ is encoded in the program memory. Program branch instructions which encode a relative address offset operate in the same manner. The offset value stored in a branch instruction represents the number of single word instructions that the PC will be offset by. The “Instruction Set” section provides further details of the instruction set.

The PC is 21-bits wide and addresses each byte (rather than words) in the program memory. The low byte is called the PCL register (PC<7:0>). This register is readable and writable. The high byte is called the PCH register (PC<15:8>). This register is not directly readable or writable. Updates to the PCH register may be performed through the PCLATH register. The upper byte is called the PCU register (PC<20:16>). The PCU register is not directly readable or writable. Updates to the PCU register may be performed through the PCLATU register. The PC structure is PCU<4:0>:PCH<7:0>:PCL<7:0> and is equivalent to PC<20:0>. Figure 7-3 shows the interaction of the PCU, PCH, and PCL registers with the PCLATU and PCLATH registers. Figure 7-3: Program Counter Structure The low byte of the PC (PCL<7:0>) is mapped in the data memory. PCL is readable and writable just as is any other register. PCU and PCH are the upper and high bytes of the PC respectively, and are not directly addressable. Registers PCLATU<4:0> (PC upper latch) and PCLATH<7:0> (PC high latch) are used as holding latches for the high bytes of the PCU and PCH, and are mapped into data memory. The user can read and write PCH through PCLATH and PCU through PCLATU. Any time PCL is read, the current contents of PCH and PCU are transferred to PCLATH and PCLATU, respectively. Any time PCL is written to, the contents of PCLATH and PCLATU are transferred to PCH and PCU, respectively. The PC addresses bytes rather than words in the program memory. Because the PC must access the instructions in program memory on an even byte boundary, the LSb of the PC is a forced '0' and the PC increments by two for each instruction. The LSb bit of the PCL is readable but not writable. Any write to the LSb is ignored. Figure 7-4 shows the four situations for the loading of the PC. Situation 1 shows how the PC is loaded on a write to PCL (PCLATH<4:0> → PCH). Situation 2 shows how the PC is loaded during a GOTO instruction (PCLATH<4:3> → PCH). Situation 4 shows how the PC is loaded during a CALL instruction (PCLATH<4:3> → PCH), with the PC loaded (PUSHed) onto the Top of Stack. Situation 6 shows how the PC is loaded during one of the return instructions where the PC is loaded (POPed) from the Top of Stack. PC 21 15 16 0 8 7 PCLATU PCLATH PCU PCH PCL 23 20 Reserved. Maintain these bits cleared. Note: The values in PCLATU and PCLATH do not always reflect the current value in PCU and PCH. When needing to modify the current Program Counter (PC) value, first read the PCL register to update the values in the PCLATU and PCLATH registers. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

DS39507A-page 7-9 Section 7. Memory Memory 7 7.3.1 Computed GOTO A computed GOTO is accomplished by adding an offset to the program counter (ADDWF PCL). When doing a table read using a computed GOTO method, care should be exercised if the table location crosses a PCL memory boundary (each 256 byte block) and the PCH memory boundary (each 64Kbyte block). A lookup table can be formed with an ADDWF PCL instruction and a group of RETLW 0xnn instructions. WREG is loaded with an offset into the table before executing a call to that table. The first instruction of the called routine is the ADDWF PCL instruction. The next instruction executed will be one of the RETLW 0xnn instructions that returns the value 0xnn to the calling function. Since the Program Counter is a byte counter (instead of a word counter), adds to the PCL allow a table size of 128 entries before the PCLATH needs to be modified. In this method of storing tables in PIC18CXXX devices, only one data value may be stored in each instruction location, and room on the return address stack is required. A better method of storing data in program memory is through the use of table reads and writes. Two bytes of data can now be stored in each instruction location. 7.4 Lookup Tables Look-up tables instructions are implemented two ways in the PIC18CXXX devices. The computed goto is compatible with the PIC16CXXX and PIC17CXXX parts. Code written for those devices will run on the PIC18CXXX devices with minor modifications. Table read instructions are implemented on the PIC17CXXX and PIC18CXXX devices. However, table operations on the PIC18CXXX work differently than on the PIC17CXXX. 7.4.1 Table Reads/Table Writes Lookup table data may be stored 2 bytes per program word. By using TBLPTR and TABLAT, data may be retrieved from program memory one byte at a time as required. Table writes to program memory can be executed as many times as desired. Remember that the technology of the program memory determines the outcome of the table write. Table writes to EPROM memory allow the program memory cell to go from a ’1’ state to a ’0’ state, but not the other direction. FLASH memory allows the cell to go from a ’1’ to a ’0’ and a ’0’ to a ’1’ (though typically a program memory word or block location is always written). Note: Since the Program Counter is 21-bits, the uppercase PCLATU register may also need to be modified when doing computed gotos. Note: Any write to the Program Counter (PCL) will cause the contents of PCLATU and PCLATH to be loaded into PCU and PCH, respectively. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 9 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39507A-page 7-10  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The stack contains the return address from this branch in program execution. Enhanced MCU devices have an 31-level deep x 21-bit wide hardware stack. The stack space is not part of either program or data space and the stack pointer is not readable nor writable. The PC is PUSHed onto the stack when a CALL instruction is executed or an interrupt causes a branch. The stack is POPed in the event of a RETURN, RETLW or a RETFIE instruction execution. PCLATH is not modified when the stack is PUSHed or POPed. After the PC is PUSHed onto the stack 31 times (without POPing any values off the stack), the 32nd PUSH over-writes the value from the 31st PUSH and sets the STKFUL bit while the STKPTR remains at 11111b. The 33rd PUSH overwrites the 32nd PUSH (and so on) while STKPTR remains 11111b. When the stack overflow enable bit is enabled a device reset will occur. Figure 7-5: Stack Modification Whenever the program branches, the return address is saved to the stack. Such branches include CALL, RCALL, or an interrupt. The stack pointer is incremented and PC<20:1> is PUSHed onto the return stack. PC<0> is always assumed to be 0. When a branch return is executed, the top of the stack is POPed to the Program Counter and the stack pointer is decremented. PCLATU and PCLATH are not affected during these branches. The PC is word incremented by 2 after each instruction fetch during Q1 unless: • Modified by a GOTO, CALL, RCALL, RETURN, RETLW, RETFIE, or branch instruction • Modified by an interrupt response • Due to a write to PCL by an instruction Skips are equivalent to a forced NOP cycle at the skipped address.

DS39507A-page 7-13 Section 7. Memory Memory 7 7.6 Data Memory Organization Data memory is made up of the Special Function Registers (SFR) area and the General Purpose Registers (GPR) area. The SFRs are used for control and status of the microcontroller and peripheral functions, while GPRs are the general area for user data storage and scratch pad operations. Each register has a 12-bit address. This allows up to 4096 bytes of data memory. This memory is partitioned into 16 banks of 256 bytes that contain the General Purpose Registers (GPRs) and Special Function Registers (SFRs). The data memory can be banked for both the GPR and SFR areas. Banking requires the use of BSR Register. Figure 7-6 shows the data memory map organizations, while Table 7-2 shows which banks will be used depending on the memory size of the devices. SFRs start at the last location of Bank 15 (0xFFF) and work up. Once the SFR space ends, any lower locations in that bank may be implemented as GPRs. GPRs start at the first location of Bank 0 (0h) and work down. Any read of an unimplemented location will read as ’0’s. The Instruction set and architecture allows operations across all banks. To move values from one register to another register, the MOVFF instruction can be used. This is a two word / two cycle instruction. The entire data memory can be accessed either directly or indirectly. Direct addressing may require the use of the BSR register. Indirect addressing requires the use of the File Select Registers (FSRs). Each FSR holds a 12-bit value that can access any location in the Data Memory map. To ensure that commonly used registers (SFRs and select GPRs) can be accessed in a single cycle, regardless of the current BSR values, an Access Bank is implemented. This is explained in Section 7.6.1. The GPR area is banked to allow greater than 256 bytes of general purpose RAM to be addressed. SFRs are for the registers that control the peripheral and core functions. Figure 7-6: The Data Memory Map and the Access Bank Bank 0 Bank 1 Bank 14 Bank 15 BSR<3:0> Data Memory Map = 0000b = 0001b = 1110b = 1111b 00h FFh 00h FFh Access Bank When a = 0, the BSR is ignored and this Access Bank is used. The first 128 bytes are General Purpose RAM (from Bank 0). The second 128 bytes are Special Function Registers (from Bank 15). See Section 7.6.1. When a = 1, the BSR is used to specify the RAM location that the instruction uses. Bank n 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 13 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39507A-page 7-14  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 7.6.1 Access Bank The Access Bank is an architectural enhancement that is very useful for C compiler code optimization. The techniques used by the C compiler may also be useful for programs written in assembly. This data memory region can be used for: • Intermediate computational values • Local variables of subroutines • Faster context saving/switching of variables • Common variables • Faster evaluation/control of SFRs (no banking) The Access Bank is comprised of the upper portion of Bank 15 (SFRs) and the lower portion of Bank 0 (GPR). These two sections will be referred to as Access RAM High and Access RAM Low, respectively. Figure 7-6 indicates the Access RAM areas. The actual size of memory used from Bank 0 and Bank 15 depends on the specific device. When appropriate, devices will use 128 bytes from Bank 0 (GPR) and 128 bytes from Bank 15 (SFR). In larger devices with more SFRs, the GPR Access bank size may be reduced to allocate that space to SFRs Access space. A bit in the instruction word specifies if the operation is to occur in the bank specified by the BSR register or in the Access Bank. This bit is denoted by the ’a’ bit (for access bit). When forced in the Access Bank (a = ’0’), the last address in Access RAM Low is followed by the first address in Access RAM High. Access RAM High maps the Special Function Registers so that these registers can be accessed without any software overhead. This is useful for testing status flags, modifying control bits, software stacks, and context saving of registers. 7.6.2 General Purpose Registers (GPR) Enhanced MCU devices may have banked memory in the GPR area. GPRs are not initialized by a Power-on Reset and are unchanged on all other resets. The register file can be accessed either directly, or indirectly, using the File Select Register (FSR). Some devices have areas that are shared across the data memory banks, so a read/write to that area will appear as the same location (value), regardless of the current bank. We refer to this area as the Common RAM. Data RAM is available for use as GPR registers by all instructions. Most banks of data memory contain only GPR registers starting with bank 0. The top half of bank 15 (0xF80 to 0xFFF) contains SFRs. Each data memory bank has 256 locations and can be addressed using an 8-bit address. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 14 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39507A-page 7-15 Section 7. Memory Memory 7 7.6.3 Special Function Registers The SFRs are used by the CPU and peripheral modules for controlling the desired operation of the device. These registers are implemented as static RAM. The SFRs can be classified into two sets; those associated with the “core” function and those related to the peripheral functions. Those registers related to the “core” are described in this section, while those related to the operation of the peripheral features are described in the section of that peripheral feature. The SFRs are typically distributed among the peripherals whose functions they control. If the SFRs do not use all the available locations on a particular device, the unused locations will be unimplemented and read as '0's. In devices that have a high integration of features, some of the SFRs may be in banks other than bank 15. See Figure 7-7 for addresses for the SFRs.

A Special Function Register (named BSR) selects the currently active general purpose RAM bank. Only the lower middle of the BSR register (BSR<3:0>) is used. This allows access to potentially 16 banks. Direct long addressing mode is limited to 12-bit addresses. This also allows accesses to any of the 16 banks. BSR<7:4> will always read 0’s, and writes have no effect. All data memory is implemented as static RAM. A MOVLB bank instruction has been provided in the instruction set to assist in selecting banks. If the currently selected bank is not implemented, any read will return all '0's, and all writes are ignored and the STATUS register bits will be set/cleared as appropriate for the instruction performed. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 16 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39507A-page 7-17 Section 7. Memory Memory 7 7.7 Return Address Stack The Return Address Stack allows any combination of up to 31 program calls and interrupts to occur. The PC (Program Counter) is PUSHed onto the stack when a CALL or RCALL instruction is executed or an interrupt is acknowledged. The PC value is pulled off the stack on a RETURN, RETLW, or a RETFIE instruction. PCLATU and PCLATH are not affected by any of the return instructions. The stack operates as a 31 word by 21-bit RAM and a 5-bit stack pointer (STKPTR), with the stack pointer initialized to 00000b after all resets. There is no RAM associated with stack pointer location 00000b. This is only a reset value. During a CALL type instruction causing a PUSH onto the stack, the stack pointer is first incremented and the RAM location pointed to by the stack pointer is written with the contents of the PC. During a RETURN type instruction causing a POP from the stack, the contents of the RAM location pointed to by the STKPTR register are transferred to the PC and then the stack pointer is decremented. The stack space is not part of either program or data space and the stack pointer is neither readable nor writable. The address on the top of the stack is readable and writable through SFR registers. Data can also be PUSHed to or POPed from the stack using the top-of-stack SFRs. Status bits indicate if the stack pointer attempts to exceed the 31 levels provided. The stack does not wrap when the stack is PUSHed greater than 31 times. Figure 7-8: Return Address Stack and Associated Registers 7.7.1 Top-Of-Stack Access The Top-of-Stack (TOS) is readable and writable. Three register locations, TOSU, TOSH and TOSL, hold the contents of the stack location pointed to by the STKPTR register. This allows users to implement a software stack if necessary. After a CALL, RCALL or interrupt, the software can read the PUSHed value by reading the TOSU, TOSH and TOSL registers. These values can be placed on a user defined software stack. At return time, the software can replace the TOSU, TOSH and TOSL and do a return. The user must disable the global interrupt enable bits during this time to prevent inadvertent stack operations. 0x001A34 11111 11110 11101 ... ... ... 00011 00010 00001 00000 00010 Return Address Stack Top of Stack 0x000D58 TOSU TOSH TOSL 0x00 0x1A 0x34 STKPTR<4:0> Note: The user must disable interrupts when manipulating the stack. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 17 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39507A-page 7-18  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 7.7.2 PUSH and POP Instructions Since the Top-of-Stack (TOS) is readable and writable, the ability to PUSH values onto the stack and pull values off the stack without disturbing normal program execution is a desirable option. To PUSH the current PC value onto the stack, a PUSH instruction can be executed. This will increment the stack pointer and load the current PC value onto the stack. TOSU, TOSH, and TOSL can then be modified to place data on the stack instead of a return address. This data may be a new return address. This may be done in the operation of a Real Time Operating System (RTOS). The ability to pull the TOS value off of the stack and replace it with the value that was previously PUSHed onto the stack, without disturbing normal execution, is achieved by using the POP instruction. The POP instruction discards the current TOS by decrementing the stack pointer. The previous value PUSHed onto the stack then becomes the TOS value.

DS39507A-page 7-19 Section 7. Memory Memory 7 7.7.3 Return Stack Pointer (STKPTR) The STKPTR register contains the return stack pointer value and the overflow and underflow bits. The stack overflow bit (STKFUL) and underflow bit (STKUNF) allow software verification of a stack condition. The STKFUL and STKUNF bits are cleared only after a POR reset. After the PC is PUSHed onto the stack 31 times (without POPing any values off the stack), the 32nd PUSH over-writes the value from the 31st PUSH and sets the STKFUL bit, while the STKPTR remains at 11111b. The 33rd PUSH overwrites the 32nd PUSH (and so on), while STKPTR remains 11111b. After the stack is POPed enough times to unload the stack, the next POP will return a value of zero to the PC and set the STKUNF bit while the STKPTR remains at 00000b. The next POP returns zero again (and so on), while STKPTR remains 00000b. The stack pointer can be accessed through the STKPTR register. The user may read and write the stack pointer values. This can be used by a Real Time Operating System (RTOS) for return stack maintenance. Figure 7-8 shows the STKPTR register. The value of the stack pointer will be 0 through 31. At reset, the stack pointer value will be 0. The stack pointer will increment when PUSHing and will decrement when POPing. 7.7.4 Stack Full/Underflow Resets At the user’s option, the overflow and underflow can cause a device reset to interrupt the program code. The reset is enabled with a configuration bit, STVREN. When the STVREN bit is disabled, a full or underflow condition will set the appropriate STKFUL or STKUNF bit but not cause a reset. When the STVREN bit is enabled, a overflow or underflow will set the appropriate STKFUL or STKUNF bit and then cause a device reset very similar in nature to the WDT reset. In either case, the STKFUL or STKUNF bits are only cleared by user software or a POR reset. 7.7.5 Fast Register Stack A "fast interrupt return" option is available for interrupts. A fast register stack is provided for the STATUS, WREG, and BSR registers and are only one in depth. The stack is neither readable nor writable and is loaded with the current value of the corresponding register when the processor vectors for an interrupt. The values in the registers are then loaded back into the working registers if the fast return instruction is used to return from the interrupt. Low or high priority interrupt PUSHes values into the stack registers. If both low and high priority interrupts are enabled, the stack registers cannot be used reliably for low priority interrupts. A high priority interrupt, if one occurs while servicing a low priority interrupt, will overwrite the stack registers stored by the low priority interrupt. If high priority interrupts are not disabled during low priority interrupts, users must save the key registers in software during a low priority interrupt. If no interrupts are used, the fast register stack can be used to restore the STATUS, WREG and BSR registers at the end of a subroutine call. To use the fast register stack for a subroutine call, a fast call instruction must be executed. Note: Returning a zero to the PC on an underflow has the effect of vectoring the program to the reset vector, where the stack conditions can be verified and appropriate actions can be taken. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 19 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39507A-page 7-20  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 7.7.6 Indirect Addressing, INDF, and FSR Registers Indirect addressing is a mode of addressing data memory where the data memory address in the instruction is not fixed. An SFR register is used as a pointer to the data memory location that is to be read or written. Since this pointer is in RAM, the contents can be modified by the program. This can be useful for data tables in the data memory and for software stacks. Figure 7-9 shows the operation of indirect addressing. This shows the moving of the value to the data memory address specified by the value of the FSR register. Indirect addressing is possible by using the INDF register. Any instruction using the INDF register actually accesses the register pointed to by the File Select Register, FSR. Reading the INDF register itself indirectly (FSR = '0') will read 00h. Writing to the INDF register indirectly results in a no-operation (although status bits may be affected). The FSR register contains a 12-bit address, which is shown in Figure 7-9. Figure 7-9: FSR Operation (Indirect Addressing) There are three indirect addressing registers. To address the entire Data Memory space (4096 bytes), these registers are 12 bits wide. To store the 12 bits of addressing information, two 8-bit registers are required. These indirect addressing registers are: 1. FSR0: composed of FSR0H:FSR0L 2. FSR1: composed of FSR1H:FSR1L 3. FSR2: composed of FSR2H:FSR2L In addition, there are registers INDF0, INDF1 and INDF2, which are not physically implemented. Reading or writing to these registers activates indirect addressing, with the value in the corresponding FSR register being the address of the data. If an instruction writes a value to INDF0, the value will be written to the address pointed to by FSR0H:FSR0L. A read from INDF1 actually reads the data from the address pointed to by FSR1H:FSR1L. INDFn can be used in code anywhere an operand can be used. If the INDF0, INDF1 or INDF2 register is read indirectly via an FSR, all '0's are read (Zero bit is set). Similarly, if INDF0, INDF1or INDF2 is written to indirectly, the operation will be equivalent to a NOP, and the STATUS bits are not affected.

DS39507A-page 7-21 Section 7. Memory Memory 7 7.7.6.1 Indirect Addressing Operation Each FSR register has an INDF register plus four addresses associated with it. The same INDFn, and FSRnH:FSRnL registers are used, but depending on the INDFn address selected, the FSRnH:FSRnL registers may be modified. When a data access is done to the one of the five INDFn locations, the address selected will configure the FSRn register to: • Do nothing to FSRn after an indirect access (no change) - INDFn • Auto-decrement FSRn after an indirect access (post-decrement) - POSTDECn • Auto-increment FSRn after an indirect access (post-increment) - POSTINCn • Auto-increment FSRn before an indirect access (pre-increment) - PREINCn • Use the value in the WREG register as an offset to FSRn. Do not modify the value of the WREG or the FSRn register after an indirect access (no change) - PLUSWn When using the auto-increment or auto-decrement features, the effect on the FSR is not reflected in the STATUS register. For example, if the indirect address causes the FSR to equal '0', the Z bit will not be set. Incrementing or decrementing an FSR affects all 12 bits. That is, when FSRnL overflows from an increment, FSRnH will be incremented automatically. Adding these features allows the FSRn to be used as a stack pointer in addition to its uses for table operations in data memory. Each FSR has an address associated with it that performs an indexed indirect access. When a data access to this INDFn location (PLUSWn) occurs, the FSRn is configured to add the signed value in the WREG register and the value in FSR to form the address before an indirect access. The FSR value is not changed. If an FSR register contains a value that points to one of the INDFn, an indirect read will read 00h (Zero bit is set), while an indirect write will be equivalent to a NOP (STATUS bits are not affected). If an indirect addressing operation is done where the target address is an FSRnH or FSRnL register, the write operation will dominate over the pre- or post-increment/decrement functions. Figure 7-10 shows the interaction of the FSR register and the data memory. Figure 7-10: FSR Operation (Indirect Addressing) Note: Accessing the PLUSWn address causes indexed indirect access. The addressed register is the addition of the value in the FSRn register and the SIGNED value in the WREG register. 11 FSRn 0 Bank0 Bank1 Bank15 0h 1h Bank Fh 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 21 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39507A-page 7-22  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

What is an easy way to do that? Answer 1: Example 7-8 shows this. If the device you are using does not use all 15 data memory banks, the value to compare FSR1H against will need to be modified. Question 2: I want to convert from a PIC16C77 which has 368 bytes of RAM (across 4 banks). What is the best way to remap this memory? Answer 2: In devices where the Access GPR region is greater or equal to 128 bytes and Bank 1 contains 256 bytes of GPR, the RAM should be partitioned with the RAM in Bank0 at locations 0x00 to 0x7F and all of Bank1. This allows a total of 384 bytes, which is larger than the 368 bytes in the PIC16C77. Now the BSR can be loaded with 0x01 (pointing to Bank1). All memory access are now either in Bank1 or the Access RAM, so no bank switching is required. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 24 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The program memory space and the data memory space. The program memory space is 16 bits wide, while the data memory space is 8 bits wide. Table Reads and Table Writes have been provided to move data between these two memory spaces through an 8-bit register (TABLAT). The operations that allow the processor to move data between the data and program memory spaces are: • Table Read (TBLRD) • Table Write (TBLWT) Table Read operations retrieve data from program memory and place it into the data memory space. Figure 8-1 shows the operation of a Table Read with program and data memory. Table Write operations store data from the data memory space into program memory. Figure 8-2 shows the operation of a Table Write with program and data memory. Table operations work with byte entities. A table block containing data is not required to be word aligned, so a table block can start and end at any byte address. If Enhanced MCU instructions are being written to program memory, these instructions must be word aligned.

The operation of Table Reads and Table Writes is different depending on the location of the program memory (internal or external). For the device to access external memory, the device needs to be operating in either extended microcontroller mode (some program memory is also internal), or microprocessor mode (no program memory is internal). In this section, the discussion of Table Read and Table Write operation will be limited to the operation with internal program memory. For operation with external program memory, please refer to the “System Bus” section. 8.3.1 Internal Program Memory The device selected will determine the program memory technology used. The Internal Program Memory can currently be one of three different memory technologies: 1. EPROM 2. FLASH 3. ROM Depending on the memory technology the following statements can be made. For EPROM devices: • All unprogrammed memory locations will read back 0xFF (all bits set) • Any bit that is set can be programmed clear • Locations with data can be reprogrammed only if 1’s are changed to 0’s • No cleared bit can be set unless the entire device is erased, which is only possible with windowed parts. For FLASH devices: • Any bit can be modified on a byte/block basis (individual bits cannot be modified) • All writes occur with the write of an entire write block • The size of the write block is device dependent For ROM devices: • All unprogrammed memory locations will read back 0xFF (all bits set) • No program memory location can be modified 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39508-page 8-7  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 8.3.2 Internal Program Memory Operation Table Read operation is independent of internal Program Memory Technology used. Table Write operation will be dependent on the memory technology of the internal Program Memory. The notation “TBLRD instruction” means any of the four Table Read forms (TBLRD*, TBLRD*+, TBLRD*-, TBLRD+*) and the notation “TBLWT instruction” means any of the four Table Write forms (TBLWT*, TBLWT*+, TBLWT*-, TBLWT+*). For additional details on the operation of these instructions refer to the “Instruction Set” section. 8.3.2.1 Table Read Overview (TBLRD) The TBLRD instructions are used to read data from program memory to data memory. The Table Reads from program memory are performed one byte at a time. The TBLPTR points to a byte address in program space. Executing a TBLRD instruction moves the contents of the addressed byte into the TABLAT register. In addition, the TBLPTR can be modified automatically for the next Table Read operation. The TBLPTR can be automatically modified, depending on the form of the TBLRD instruction (see Table 8-1). All of the TBLRD instructions require two instruction cycles (TCY) to execute. 8.3.2.1.1 Effects of a Reset The TABLAT register will retain the value read from program memory (if the instruction completed). The Table Pointer registers will not change, and the RCON register will be forced to the appropriate reset state. 8.3.2.2 Table Write Overview (TBLWT) The TBLWT instructions are used to write data from data memory to program memory. For devices with EPROM Program Memory, Table Writes are performed in pairs, one byte at a time. Table Writes to an even program memory address (TBLPTR<0> is clear) will load an internal memory latch from TABLAT, and is known as a short write. Table Writes to an odd program memory address (TBLPTR<0> is set) will start long writes. (TABLAT is programmed to the program word high byte, and the internal memory latch is programmed to the same word low byte). For devices using another program memory technology, the operation may be different. Please refer to the device data sheet. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 7 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39508-page 8-8  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 8.3.2.2.1 Memory Write Block Size Depending on the device used, the write block size will be different. The larger the block size, the faster the entire internal program memory space can be programmed. This is because the EPROM/FLASH write time is much longer than the time to load the holding registers. For internal program memory, the write block size can vary from 2 bytes to many bytes (in FLASH devices). A write to the Most Significant byte (MSB) of the block causes the entire block to be written to program memory. Writes to all other locations in the write block only modify the contents of the specified holding register. After a write cycle has completed, the contents of the Write Block Holding Registers are forced set (‘1’s). This eases the writing of only a single byte within a program memory block. Figure 8-3 shows the write block for EPROM program memory. The write block size is 2 bytes. If a single byte is to be programmed, the low (even) byte of the destination program word should be read using TBLRD*, then modified if required, and written back to the same address using TBLWT*+. Then the high (odd) byte should be read using TBLRD*, modified if required, and written back to the same address using a TBLWT instruction. The write to an odd address will cause a long write to begin (in EPROM program memory devices). This process ensures that existing data in either byte will not be changed unless desired. Figure 8-3: Holding Registers and the Write Block (EPROM Program Memory) Block n Block n + 1 Block n + 2 MSB The write to the MSB of the write block causes the entire block to be written to program memory. The program memory block that is written depends on the address that is written to in the MSB of the write block. All writes to the holding registers use only the LSb’s of the address to specify into which holding register to load the data.

Table Read/Table Write Table Write Table Read/ 8 8.3.2.2.2 EPROM Program Memory Operation The long write is what actually programs the data into the internal memory. When a TBLWT instruction to the MSB of the write block occurs, instruction execution is halted. During this time, programming voltage and the data stored in internal latches is applied to program memory. The sequence of steps to program the internal program memory is: 1. MCLR/VPP pin must be at the programming voltage 2. LWRT bit must be set 3. TBLWT to the address of the MSB of the write block If the LWRT bit is clear, a short write will occur and program memory will not be changed. If the TBLWT is not to the MSB of the write block, then the programming phase is not initiated. Setting the LWRT bit enables long writes when the MCLR pin is taken to VPP voltage. Once the LWRT bit is set, it can be cleared only by performing a Power-On Reset (POR) or MCLR reset. To ensure that the memory location has been well programmed, a minimum programming time is required. The long write can be terminated after the programming time has expired by any event that can wake the controller from SLEEP. This may be a reset or an interrupt that operates during sleep. Having only one interrupt source enabled to terminate the long write ensures that no unintended interrupts will prematurely terminate the long write. Usable interrupt sources include: • WDT • A/D • External Interrupts (INT0, INT1, or INT2) • PORTB interrupt on change • USART on address detect • Timer1 in async counter mode or async external clock mode. • Timer3 in async counter mode or async external clock mode. • Capture • SPI 8.3.2.2.3 Sequence of events The sequence of events for programming an internal program memory location should be: 1. Enable the interrupt that terminates the long write. Disable all other interrupts. 2. Clear the source interrupt flag. 3. If Interrupt Service Routine (ISR) execution is desired when the device wakes, enable global interrupts (GIE, GIEH, or GIEL). 4. Set LWRT bit in RCON register. 5. Raise MCLR/VPP pin to the programming voltage, VPP. 6. Clear the WDT (if enabled). 7. Set the interrupt source to interrupt at the required time. 8. Load the desired Table Pointer Address. 9. Execute the Table Write for the lower (even) byte. This will be a short write. 10. Execute the Table Write for the upper (odd) byte. This will be a long write. The controller will halt instruction execution while programming. The interrupt wakes the controller. 11. If GIE was set, service the interrupt request. 12. If more locations to program, go to step 2. 13. Lower MCLR/VPP pin to VDD. 14. Verify the memory location (Table Read). 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 9 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39508-page 8-10  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 8.3.2.2.4 Interrupts The long write must be terminated by a RESET or any interrupt that can wake the controller from SLEEP mode. Usable interrupt sources include: • WDT • A/D • INT0 • INT1 • INT2 • RB<7:4> interrupt on change • USART on address detect • Timer1 in asynchronous counter mode or asynchronous external clock mode • Timer3 in asynchronous counter mode or asynchronous external clock mode The interrupt source must have its interrupt enable bit set. When the source sets its interrupt flag, programming will terminate. This will occur regardless of the settings of interrupt priority bits, the GIE/GIEH bit, or the PIE/GIEL bit. Depending on the states of interrupt priority bits, the GIE/GIEH bit, or the PIE/GIEL bit, program execution can either be vectored to the high or low priority Interrupt Service Routine (ISR), or resume program execution. In either case, the interrupt flag will not be automatically cleared when programming is terminated, and will need to be cleared by the software.

Table Read/Table Write Table Write Table Read/ 8 8.3.2.2.5 Unexpected Termination of Write Operations If a table write operation is terminated by an unplanned event, such as loss of power, an unexpected reset, or an interrupt that was not disabled, the memory location just programmed should be verified and reprogrammed if needed. For applications where a loss of power could occur, a Brown-out reset circuit is recommended to ensure that the write operation is terminated cleanly. This reduces the possibility that a programmed location could not be reprogrammed to the desired value. 8.3.2.2.6 Effects of a RESET A device reset during a long write may cause the location being programmed to be incompletely programmed. The location should be verified and reprogrammed if needed. A device reset during a write (short) will not effect the value in the TABLAT register (if the write cycle completed). The RCON register will be forced into the appropriate reset state. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39508-page 8-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 8.4 Enabling Internal Programming There is a combination of actions that need to occur to enable programming of the internal program memory. These modes are entered by applying the VIHH voltage on the MCLR/VPP pin and either setting the LWRT bit (self-programming) or having RB6 and RB7 at a low level when VIHH was detected (ICSP mode). 8.4.1 Programming Modes Table 8-3 shows the device operating modes depending on the state of the MCLR pin, the LWRT bit, and the RB7:RB6.

What is wrong? Answer 1: There are several possibilities. These include, but are not limited to: • The maximum time requirement of the long write time was not met (for internal program memory). • The address of the location to program was changed during the write cycle. • A device reset occurred during the write cycle. • If the program memory is EPROM or EOTP, then required overprogramming was not done. • An Interrupt flag may have been set, so the long write cycle was immediately completed (violated long write time specification). Question 2: Occasionally the device hangs. What is this? Answer 2: Your program may have executed a long write, and the device may not have the interrupts/modules set up to terminate this long write. Question 3: When programming the program memory are there any required algorithm algorithms to follow? Answer 3: The programming algorithm will be dependent on the memory technology of the device.

These sources currently include: • External interrupt from the INT, INT1, and INT2 pins • Change on RB7:RB4 pins • TMR0 Overflow • TMR1 Overflow • TMR2 Overflow • TMR3 Overflow • USART Interrupts - Receive buffer full - Transmit buffer empty • SSP Interrupt • SSP I2C bus collision interrupt • A/D conversion complete • CCP interrupt • LVD Interrupt • Parallel Slave Port • CAN interrupts - Receive buffer 1 full - Receive buffer 2 full - Receive invalid - Transmit buffer 0 empty - Transmit buffer 1 empty - Transmit buffer 2 empty - Bus wakeup - Bus invalid error As other peripheral modules are developed, they will have interrupt sources. These sources will map into the 10 registers used in the control and status of interrupts. These registers are: • INTCON • INTCON1 • INTCON2 • INTCON3 • PIR1 • PIR2 • PIE1 • PIE2 • IPR1 • IPR2 The INTCON register contains the GIE/GIEH bit. This is the Global Interrupt Enable bit. When this bit is set, all interrupts are enabled. If needed for any single device, additional INTCON, PIR, PIE, and IPR registers will be defined. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39510A-page 10-3 Section 10. Interrupts Interrupts 10 10.1.1 Interrupt Priority There are two interrupt vectors. One interrupt vector is for high priority interrupts and is located at address 000008h. The other interrupt vector is for low priority interrupts and is located at address 000018h. When a valid interrupt occurs, program execution vectors to one of these interrupt vector addresses and the corresponding Global Interrupt Enable bit (GIE, GIEH, or GIEL) is automatically cleared. In the interrupt service routine, the source(s) of the interrupt can be determined by testing the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt flag bit(s) must be cleared before re-enabling interrupts to avoid infinite interrupt requests. Most flag bits are required to be cleared by the application software. There are some flag bits that are automatically cleared by the hardware. When an interrupt condition is met, that individual interrupt flag bit will be set regardless of the status of its corresponding mask bit . For external interrupt events, such as the RB0/INT0 pin or PORTB change interrupt, the interrupt latency will be three or four instruction cycles. The exact latency depends when the interrupt event occurs. The interrupt latency is the same for one or two cycle instructions. The “return from interrupt” instruction, RETFIE, can be used to mark the end of the interrupt service routine. When this instruction is executed, the stack is “POPed” and the GIE bit is set (to re-enable interrupts).

DS39510A-page 10-19 Section 10. Interrupts Interrupts 10 10.3 Interrupt Handling Operation The interrupts are controlled and monitored using several Special Function Registers. These may include the following register types: • INTCON registers • PIR registers • PIE registers • IPR registers The PIR registers contain the interrupt flag bits, the PIE registers contain the enable bits and the IPR registers contain the priority bits. The number of PIR, PIE, and IPR registers depends on the number of interrupt sources on the device. 10.3.1 Interrupt Priority Each interrupt can be assigned a priority level by clearing or setting the corresponding interrupt priority bit. The priority bits are located in the interrupt priority registers (IPR1, IPR2, IPR3, INTCON2 and INTCON3). A ‘1’ in the priority register assigns high priority to the corresponding interrupt. A ’0’ in the register assigns low priority to the interrupt. All interrupt priority bits are reset to ’1’, meaning that all interrupts are assigned high priority at reset. The IPEN bit in the RCON register enables priority levels for interrupts. If clear, all priorities are set to high. 10.3.1.1 High Priority Interrupts A global interrupt enable bit, GIE/GIEH (INTCON<7>) enables (if set) all un-masked interrupts or disables (if cleared) all interrupts. When bit GIE/GIEH is enabled and an interrupt’s flag bit and enable bit are set while the priority is high, the interrupt will vector immediately. Individual interrupts can be disabled through their corresponding enable bits in various registers. Individual interrupt flag bits are set, regardless of the status of the GIE/GIEH bit. The GIE/GIEH bit is cleared on reset. When a high priority interrupt is responded to, the GIE/GIEH bit is automatically cleared to disable any further interrupts, the return address is pushed onto the stack, and the PC is loaded with 000008h. Once in the interrupt service routine, the source of the interrupt can be determined by polling the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt flag bit(s) must be cleared before re-enabling interrupts to avoid recursive interrupts. Most flag bits are required to be cleared by the application software. There are some flag bits that are automatically cleared by the hardware. The “return from interrupt” instruction, RETFIE, exits the interrupt routine and sets the GIE/GIEH bit, which re-enables high priority interrupts. 10.3.1.2 Low Priority Interrupts Low priority interrupts are defined by having a “0” in an interrupt priority register IPRx. To enable low priority interrupts, the IPEN bit must be set. When the IPEN is set, the PEIE/GIEL bit (INTCON<6>) is no longer used to enable peripheral interrupts. Its new function is to globally enable and disable low priority interrupts only. When the service routine for a low priority interrupt is vectored to, the PEIE/GIEL bit is automatically cleared in hardware to disable any further low priority interrupts. The return address is pushed onto the stack and the PC is loaded with 000018h instead of 000008h (all low priority interrupts will vector to 000018h). Once in the interrupt service routine, the source(s) of the low priority interrupt can be determined by polling the low priority interrupt flag bits. The interrupt flag bit(s) must be cleared before re-enabling interrupts to avoid recursive interrupts. Most flag bits are required to be cleared by the application software. There are some flag bits that are automatically cleared by the hardware. The RETFIE instruction will reset the PEIE/GIEL bit on return from low priority interrupts. The GIE/GIEH bit’s function has not changed in that it still enables/disables all interrupts, however, it is only cleared by hardware when servicing a high priority interrupt. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 19 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39510A-page 10-20  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 10.3.1.3 High Priority Interrupts Interrupting a Low Priority ISR If a high priority interrupt flag and enable bits are set while servicing a low priority interrupt, the high priority interrupt will cause the low priority ISR to be interrupted (regardless of the state of the PEIE/GIEL bit), because it is used to disable/enable low priority interrupts only. The GIE/GIEH bit is cleared by hardware to disable any further high and low priority interrupts, the return address is pushed onto the stack, and the PC is loaded with 000008h (the high priority interrupt vector). Once in the interrupt service routine, the source of the high priority interrupt can be determined by polling the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt flag bit(s) must be cleared in software before re-enabling interrupts to avoid recursive interrupts. Figure 10-4 shows a high priority interrupt interrupting a low priority ISR. Figure 10-5 shows a high priority FSR with a low priority interrupt pending.

DS39510A-page 10-23 Section 10. Interrupts Interrupts 10 10.3.1.4 Low Priority Interrupts Interrupting a High Priority ISR A low priority interrupt cannot interrupt a high priority ISR. The low priority interrupt will be served after all high priority interrupts have been served. 10.3.1.5 Simultaneous High and Low Priority Interrupts If a high priority interrupt and a low priority interrupt are sampled at the same time, the high priority interrupt service routine is always serviced first. The GIE/GIEH bit is cleared by the hardware and the device vectors to location 000008h to the high priority ISR. After the interrupt is serviced, the corresponding interrupt flag should be cleared to avoid a recursive interrupt. The RETFIE instruction resets the GIE/GIEH bit, and if no other high priority interrupts are pending, the low priority interrupt is serviced. 10.3.1.6 Fast Context Saving During High Priority Interrupts A "fast interrupt service" option is available for high priority interrupts. This is done by creating shadow registers for a few key registers (WREG, BSR and STATUS). Shadow registers are provided for the STATUS, WREG, and BSR registers and are only 1 deep. The shadow registers are not readable and are loaded with the current value of their corresponding register when the processor vectors for a high priority interrupt. The values in the shadow registers are then loaded back into the actual register if the fast return instruction (RETFIE 0x01) is used to return from the interrupt. An example for fast context saving is shown in Example 10-1. Example 10-1: Fast Context Saving ORG 0x08 ; ; Interrupt Service Routine (ISR) code. WREG, BSR and STATUS need ; to be saved upon entering the high priority interrupt service routine ; RETFIE 0x01 ; WREG, BSR and STATUS will be restored Note: Fast interrupt saving cannot be used reliably if high and low priority interrupts are enabled.

Any interrupt pushes values into the shadow registers. If both low and high priority interrupts are enabled, the shadow registers cannot be used reliably for low priority interrupts, as a high priority interrupt event will overwrite the shadow registers. Users must save the key registers in software during a low priority interrupt. For example: a) Store the STATUS, WREG and BSR registers on a software stack. b) Execute the ISR code. c) Restore the STATUS, WREG and BSR registers from the software stack. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 24 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The exact latency depends when the interrupt event occurs. The interrupt latency is the same for one or two cycle instructions. 10.3.1.8.1 Interrupt Latency For One Cycle Instructions Figure 10-9 shows the timing when an external interrupt is asserted during a one cycle instruction. The interrupt is sampled on Q4. The interrupt is then acknowledged on the Q2 cycle of the following instruction cycle when instruction PC is executed. This is followed by a forced NOP (dummy cycle) and the contents of the PC are stored on the stack during the Q3 cycle of this machine cycle. By the Q3/Q4 boundary of instruction cycle two, the interrupt vector is placed into the PC, and is presented on the program memory bus on the following cycle. This cycle is also a dummy cycle executing a forced NOP (FNOP) so that the CPU can fetch the first instruction from the interrupt service routine.

Interrupts Interrupts 10 10.3.1.8.2 Interrupt Latency For Two Cycle Instructions Figure 10-10 shows the timing when an external interrupt is asserted during a two cycle instruction. The interrupt is sampled on Q4. The interrupt is then acknowledged on the Q1 of the following instruction cycle when instruction PC is executed. This is followed by the second cycle of the instruction and the contents of the PC are stored on the stack during Q3 of this machine cycle. For all two cycle instructions, the PC may be updated with a new PC value due to execution control instructions like GOTO and CALL. The reason for the forced NOP (dummy cycle) is to maintain consistent interrupt latency between one and two cycle instructions. Two cycle instructions require this cycle for the update of the PC to a new PC value, because all two cycle instructions with the exception of MOVFF and MOVLF are execution control type instructions that update the PC with a new value (i.e. GOTO and CALL). The MOVFF and MOVLF instructions will increment the PC by 2 in this cycle because an operand fetch takes place in the second cycle. By Q3/Q4 the interrupt vector 000008h is placed into the PC and is presented on the program memory bus on the following cycle. This cycle is a dummy cycle executing a forced NOP (FNOP) so that the CPU can fetch the first instruction from the interrupt service routine.

Instruction execution is halted while in a long write cycle. The long write will be terminated by any enabled interrupt. To ensure that the EPROM location has been well programmed, a minimum programming time is required. Typically, a Timer interrupt is used to time and terminate the long write. Having only one interrupt enabled to terminate the long write ensures that no unintended interrupts will prematurely terminate the long write.

They allow the PICmicro to monitor and control other devices. To add flexibility and functionality to a device, some pins are multiplexed with an alternate function(s). These functions depend on which peripheral features are on the device. In general, when a peripheral is functioning, that pin may not be used as a general purpose I/O pin. For most ports, the I/O pin’s direction (input or output) is controlled by the data direction register, called the TRIS register. TRIS controls the direction of PORT. A ’1’ in the TRIS bit corresponds to that pin being an input, while a ’0’ corresponds to that pin being an output. An easy way to remember is that a ’1’ looks like an I (input) and a ’0’ looks like an O (output). The PORT register is the latch for the data to be output. When the PORT is read, the device reads the levels present on the I/O pins (not the latch). This means that care should be taken with read-modify-write commands on the ports and changing the direction of a pin from an input to an output. Figure 11-1 shows a typical I/O port. This does not take into account peripheral functions that may be multiplexed onto the I/O pin. Reading the PORT register reads the status of the pins whereas writing to it will write to the port latch. All write operations (such as BSF and BCF instructions) are read-modify-write operations. Therefore, a write to a port implies that the port pins are read, this value is modified, and then written to the port data latch.

DS39511A-page 11-3 Section 11. I/O Ports I/O Ports 11 When peripheral functions are multiplexed onto general I/O pins, the functionality of the I/O pins may change to accommodate the requirements of the peripheral module. An example of this is the Analog to Digital converter module which forces the I/O pin to the peripheral function when the device is reset. This prevents the device from consuming excess current if any analog levels were on the A/D pins after a reset occurred. With some peripherals, the TRIS bit is overridden while the peripheral is enabled. Therefore, read-modify-write instructions (BSF, BCF, XORWF) with TRIS as destination should be avoided. The user should refer to the corresponding peripheral section for the correct TRIS bit settings. PORT pins may be multiplexed with analog inputs and analog VREF inputs. The operation of each of these pins is selected, to be an analog input or digital I/O, by clearing/setting the control bits in other Special Function registers (SFRs). An example of this is the ADCON1 register for the 10-bit A/D module. Currently, when devices have pins selected as an analog input, these pins will read as '0's. The TRIS registers control the direction of the port pins, even when they are being used as analog inputs. The user must ensure the TRIS bits are maintained set when using the pins as analog inputs. Note 1: If pins are multiplexed with analog inputs, then on a Power-on Reset these pins are configured as analog inputs, as controlled by the ADCON1 register. Reading port pins configured as analog inputs read a '0'. Note 2: If pins are multiplexed with comparator inputs, then on a Power-on Reset these pins are configured as analog inputs, as controlled by the CMCON register. Reading port pins configured as analog inputs read a '0'. Note 3: Pins may be multiplexed with the Parallel Slave Port (PSP). For the PSP to function, the I/O pins must be configured as digital inputs and the PSPMODE bit must be set. Note 4: At present, the Parallel Slave Port (PSP) is only multiplexed onto PORTD and PORTE. The PSP port becomes enabled when the PSPMODE bit is set. In this mode, the user must make sure that the TRISE bits are set (pins are configured as digital inputs) and that PORTE is configured for digital I/O. PORTD will override the values in the TRISD register. In this mode, the PORTD and PORTE input buffers are TTL. The control bits for the PSP operation are located in TRISE. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 3 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39511A-page 11-4  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 11.1.1 Multiplexed Peripherals Pins may be configured as either digital inputs or digital outputs. Digital inputs are either TTL buffers or Schmitt Triggers. Outputs are CMOS drivers except for pin RA4, which is an open-drain output. All pins also support one or more peripheral modules. When configured to operate with a peripheral, a pin may not be used for general input or output. In many cases, a pin must still be configured for input or output, although some peripherals override the TRIS configuration.

DS39511A-page 11-5 Section 11. I/O Ports I/O Ports 11 11.1.2 Output Data Latches (LATx) and Data Direction Register (TRISx) All port pins have an output data latch. Writing to a port writes to that latch (LATx). The data latch may also be read from and written to directly. If the pin is not being used by a peripheral, and is configured as an output by its TRIS bit, data in the latch will be output to the pin. All port pins have corresponding Data Direction Register bits (TRISx register) which configure each pin as an input or output. Clearing a bit in a TRIS register (bit=0) configures the corresponding pin for output, and drives the contents of the output data latch (LATx) to the selected pin. Setting a TRIS register bit (bit=1) configures the corresponding pin as an input, and puts the corresponding output driver in a high impedance state. After a reset, all pins are configured as inputs. Example 11-1 shows that writing the value in the WREG register to PORTB actually writes the value to the LATB register. Example 11-1: Writing to PORTB actually writes to LATB There are two input paths from a port. One path simply reads back what is in the data latch (LATx) without regard to whether or not the bits are being output, and may return values not present at the pin. The other path reads back the state of the pin (PORTx) unless a peripheral forces it to read back a fixed state. Example 11-2 demonstrates the difference between reading a PORT and reading the output latch of the PORT. Example 11-2: Reading PORTB compared to reading LATB Reading the PORTx register reads the status of the pins whereas writing to it will write to the port data latch (LATx). A write to LATx can also be performed. Example 11-3 shows the result of simply reading the PORT register. In this example, RB0 is being overdrive low and RB1 is being overdriven high. This is NOT recommended, and may actually violate device specifications, but is shown to give insight to the operation of an instruction which reads the I/O port with respect to the I/O ports data latch. Example 11-3: Reading PORTB reads the state of RB7:RB0 ; LATB = 1100 0011 ; RB<7:0> = 1001 0011 ; TRISB = 1111 0000 1=input 0=output ; W_REG = 0010 1110 movwf PORTB ; writes W_REG to PORTB output data ; latch (LATB) ; LATB = 0010 1110 ; RB<7:0> = 1001 1110 high nibble ; no change (TRISB) ; RB<7:0> = 1001 0101 ; LATB = 0111 0101 ; TRISB = 1111 0000 1=input 0=output movf PORTB,W ; reads states of PORTB pins ; W_REG = 1001 0101 movf LATB,W ; reads contents of LATB data latch ; W_REG = 0111 0101 ; RB<7:0> = 1001 0110 ; LATB = 1100 0011 ; TRISB = 1111 0000 1=input 0=output movf PORTB,W ; reads state of pins ; W_REG = 1001 0110 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 5 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39511A-page 11-6  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. Example 11-4 shows what effects can occur when writing to the PORT registers. Example 11-4: Writing to PORTB Example 11-5 shows what effects can occur when writing to the LAT registers. Example 11-5: Writing to LATB Any instruction that performs a write operates internally as a read-modify-write operation. Caution must be used when these instructions are applied to a port where pins are switching between input and output states. For example, a BSF PORTB, 5 instruction will cause all eight bits of PORTB to be read into the CPU. Then the instruction sets bit 5 and the resulting data is written to LATB. If the RB7 pin is used for bi-directional I/O and is defined as an input when BSF PORTB, 5 executes, the input signal present on the pin itself would be read into the CPU and be written to LATB<7>, overwriting the previous contents. As long as the RB7 pin stays in the input mode, no problem occurs. However, if the RB7 pin is switched to an output, the contents of the data latch may be in an unintended state, causing the RB7 pin to be in the wrong state. Example 11-6 shows how read-modify-write operations can affect the PORT register or the TRIS register. Example 11-6: Read-modify-write of PORTB, and TRISB change toggles RB7 A better solution would be to use the data latch instead. A BSF LATB, 5 instruction will read the bits in the output latch, set bit 5, and write the results back to the output latch. LATB<7> will never be at risk of being changed. ; TRISB = 1111 0000 1=input 0=output ; W_REG = 1011 0110 ; LATB = 1100 0011 ; RB<7:0> = 1001 0011 movwf PORTB ; writes W_REG to LATB ; LATB = 1011 0110 ; RB<7:0> = 1001 0110 low nibble only ; is output ; TRISB = 1111 0000 1=input 0=output ; W_REG = 1011 0110 ; LATB = 1100 0011 ; RB<7:0> = 1001 0011 movwf LATB ; writes W_REG to LATB ; LATB = 1011 0110 ; RB<7:0> = 1001 0110 same result as ; ‘movwf PORTB’ ; RB<7:0> = 0001 0110 ; LATB = 1001 0110 ; TRISB = 1100 0000 bsf PORTB,5 ; read-modify-write operation. ; LATB = 0011 0110 bit 7 cleared ; RB<7:0> = 1011 0110 RB7 changes to high speed bcf TRISB,7 ; changes RB7 from input to output ; TRISB = 0100 0000 ; RB<7:0> = 0011 0110 RB7 in now driven low 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The corresponding data direction register is TRISA, the data output latch is LATA, and the pins are PORTA. Except for RA4, all PORTA pins have TTL input buffers and full CMOS output drivers. All pins are configured as inputs on a reset. The RA4 pin is a Schmitt Trigger input and an open drain output. All other RA port pins have TTL input levels and full CMOS output drivers. All pins have data direction bits (TRIS registers) which can configure these pins as output or input. Setting a TRISA register bit puts the corresponding output driver in a hi-impedance mode.

The corresponding data direction register is TRISB, the data output latch is LATB, and the pins are PORTB. All pins have TTL inputs. Setting a bit in the TRISB register puts the corresponding output driver in a hi-impedance input mode. Clearing a bit in the TRISB register puts the contents of the output latch on the selected pin. All pins are configured as inputs on a reset. Four of the PORTB pins have a weak internal pull-up. Clearing the RBPU bit (INTCON2<7>) turns on pull-ups on all pins. The weak pull-up is automatically turned off when the port pin is configured as an output. The pull-ups are disabled on a reset. Example 11-9: Initializing PORTB 11.3.1 RB2:RB0 / External Interrupts INT2:INT0 RB2:RB0 pins can also function as external interrupt sources INT2:INT0 while working as digital inputs. These interrupts are edge triggered on the edges selected by the bits. If enabled prior to entering sleep mode, these interrupts can wake the controller. INT2:INT0 inputs have Schmitt trigger inputs, while the RB2:RB0 inputs have TTL buffer inputs.

I/O Ports I/O Ports 11 Four of PORTB’s pins, RB7:RB4, have an interrupt on change feature. Only pins configured as inputs can cause this interrupt to occur (i.e., any RB7:RB4 pin configured as an output is excluded from the interrupt on change comparison). The input pins (of RB7:RB4) are compared with the old value latched on the last read of PORTB. The present inputs of RB7:RB4 and their previous values are XOR’ed together to detect a “mismatch” condition and set the RB Port change interrupt flag bit RBIF. When enabled, this flag will generate an interrupt that can wake the device from SLEEP. This interrupt can wake the device from SLEEP. The user, in the interrupt service routine, can clear the interrupt in the following manner: a) Any read or write of PORTB will end the mismatch condition, except a write using the MOVFF instruction. b) Clear flag bit RBIF. The MOVFF instruction will not end the mismatch condition if PORTB is used only as the destination register. The contents of the destination register are not automatically read by this instruction in the second cycle. All other reads, writes, and bit operations will read the port during execution. A mismatch condition will continue to set flag bit RBIF. Reading PORTB will end the mismatch condition, and allow flag bit RBIF to be cleared. This interrupt on change (i.e., mismatch) feature, together with software configurable pull-ups on these four pins allow easy interface to a keypad and make it possible for wake-up on key-depression. The interrupt on change feature is recommended for wake-up on key depression and operations where PORTB is only used for the interrupt on change feature. Polling of PORTB is not recommended while using the interrupt on change feature. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 13 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39511A-page 11-14  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Each pin is individually configurable as an input or output through the TRISC register. The data output latch is LATC. PORTC pins have Schmitt Trigger input buffers. When enabling peripheral functions, care should be taken in defining TRIS bits for each PORTC pin. Some peripherals override the TRIS bit to make a pin an output, while other peripherals override the TRIS bit to make a pin an input, and other peripherals may not override the TRIS bits (requires that TRIS bits are configured for proper peripheral operation). The user should refer to the corresponding peripheral section for the correct TRIS bit settings.

I/O Ports I/O Ports 11 All PORTC pins have Schmitt Trigger input buffers. When a peripheral uses a pin for output, the peripheral will override the TRIS and force the pin to be an output. Conversely, when a peripheral uses a pin for input, the peripheral will override the TRIS and force the pin to be an input. The TRIS is ignored while the peripheral controls the pin. A read from the TRISC register bits will always yield the value contained in the TRISC latch whether or not a peripheral TRIS override is being asserted. This will allow a user to read the status of the TRISC bits at all times. Since the TRIS bit override is in effect when the peripheral is enabled, read-modify-write instructions (BSF, BCF and others) with TRIS as destination should be used with care. These instructions will have no effect on the current state of the pin. However, prior to disabling the peripheral and returning the pin to general use, the user should ensure that the TRIS bit is correctly set for that pin.

I/O Ports I/O Ports 11 11.13 Functions Multiplexed on I/O Pins This section discusses a couple of functions that are multiplexed on to I/O pins that are new concepts when compared to the Mid-Range family. 11.13.1 Oscillator Configuration If the system oscillator uses RCIO or ECIO mode, then the OSC2 pin may be used as a general purpose I/O pin. If any other oscillator mode is used, the I/O pin multiplexed with OSC2 is disabled and will read ‘0’, as will the TRIS bit and LAT bit associated with the I/O pin. Writes to I/O pin will have no effect. See Table 11-23. If the system oscillator uses RC or EC mode, then the I/O pin is configured as OSC2 and outputs Fosc/4.

I/O Ports I/O Ports 11 11.14 I/O Programming Considerations When using the ports as I/O, design considerations need to be taken into account to ensure that the operation is as intended. 11.14.1 Bi-directional I/O Ports Any instruction that performs a write operation, actually does a read followed by a write operation. The BCF and BSF instructions, for example, read the register into the CPU, execute the bit operation and write the result back to the register. Caution must be used when these instructions are applied to a port with both inputs and outputs defined. For example, a BSF operation on bit5 of PORTB will cause all eight bits of PORTB to be read into the CPU. Then the BSF operation takes place on bit5 and PORTB is written to the output latches. If another bit of PORTB is used as a bi-directional I/O pin (e.g., bit0) and it is defined as an input at this time, the input signal present on the pin itself would be read into the CPU and rewritten to the data latch of this particular pin, overwriting the previous content. As long as the pin stays in the input mode, no problem occurs. However, if bit0 is switched to an output, the content of the data latch may now be unknown. Reading the port register, reads the values of the port pins. Writing to the port register writes the value to the port latch. When using read-modify-write instructions (e.g., BCF, BSF, etc.) on a port, the value of the port pins is read, the desired operation is performed on this value, and the value is then written to the port latch. Example 11-13 shows the effect of two sequential read-modify-write instructions on an I/O port. Example 11-13: Read-Modify-Write Instructions on an I/O Port A pin configured as an output, actively driving a Low or High, should not be driven from external devices at the same time in order to change the level on this pin (“wired-or”, “wired-and”). The resulting high output currents may damage the chip. ; Initial PORT settings: PORTB<7:4> Inputs ; PORTB<3:0> Outputs ; PORTB<7:6> have external pull-ups and are not connected to other circuitry ; ; PORT latch PORT pins ; ---------- --------- BCF PORTB, 7 ; 01pp pppp 11pp pppp BCF PORTB, 6 ; 10pp pppp 11pp pppp BCF TRISB, 7 ; 10pp pppp 11pp pppp BCF TRISB, 6 ; 10pp pppp 10pp pppp ; ; Note that the user may have expected the pin values to be 00pp ppp. ; The 2nd BCF caused RB7 to be latched as the pin value (high). 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 37 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39511A-page 11-38  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 11.14.2 Successive Operations on an I/O Port The actual write to an I/O port happens at the end of an instruction cycle, whereas for reading, the data must be valid at the beginning of the instruction cycle (Figure 11-18). Therefore, care must be exercised if a write followed by a read operation is carried out on the same I/O port. The sequence of instructions should be such to allow the pin voltage to stabilize (load dependent) before the next instruction that causes that file to be read into the CPU is executed. Otherwise, the previous state of that pin may be read into the CPU rather than the new state. When in doubt, it is better to separate these instructions with a NOP or another instruction not accessing this I/O port. This example shows a write to PORTB followed by a read from PORTB. Therefore, at higher clock frequencies, a write followed by a read may be problematic due to external capacitance.

DS39511A-page 11-39 Section 11. I/O Ports I/O Ports 11 Figure 11-19 shows the I/O model that causes this situation. As the effective capacitance (C) becomes larger, the rise/fall time of the I/O pin increases. As the device frequency increases or the effective capacitance increases, the possibility of this subsequent PORTx read-modify-write instruction issue increases. This effective capacitance includes the effects of the board traces. A way to address this is to add an series resistor at the I/O pin. This resistor allows the I/O pin to get to the desired level before the next instruction. The use of NOP instructions between the subsequent PORTx read-modify-write instructions, is a lower cost solution, but has the issue that the number of NOP instructions is dependent on the effective capacitance C and the frequency of the device.

Note: It is recommended that when initializing the port, the PORT data latch (LAT or PORT register) should be initialized first, and then the data direction (TRIS register). This will eliminate a possible pin glitch, since the LAT register (PORT data latch values) power up in a random state. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 40 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39511A-page 11-41 Section 11. I/O Ports I/O Ports 11 11.16 Design Tips Question 1: Code will not toggle any I/O ports, but the oscillator is running. What can I be doing wrong? Answer 1: 1. Have the TRIS registers been initialized properly? These registers can be written to directly in the access bank (Bank15). 2. Is there a peripheral multiplexed onto those pins that are enabled? 3. Is the Watchdog Timer enabled (done at programming)? If it is enabled, is it being cleared properly with a CLRWDT instruction at least every 9 ms (or more if prescaled)? 4. Are you using the correct instructions to write to the port? More than one person has used the MOVF command when they should have used MOVWF. 5. For parts with interrupts, are the interrupts disabled? If not, try disabling them to verify they are not interfering. Question 2: When my program reads a port, I get a different value than what I put in the port register. What can cause this? Answer 2: 1. When a port is read, it is always the pin that is read, regardless of its being set to input or output. So if a pin is set to an input, you will read the value on the pin regardless of the register value. 2. If a pin is set to output, for instance, it has a one in the data latch; if it is shorted to ground, you will still read a zero on the pin. This is very useful for building fault tolerant systems, or handling I2C bus conflicts. (The I2C bus is only driven low, and the pin is high impedance for a one. If the pin is low and you are not driving it, some other device is trying to take the bus). 3. Enhanced devices all have at least one open drain (or open collector) pin. These pins can only drive a zero or high impedance. For most Enhanced devices, this is pin RA4. Open drain pins must have a pull-up resistor to have a high state. This pin is useful for driving odd voltage loads. The pull-up can be connected to a voltage (typically less than VDD) which becomes the high state. 4. Some analog modules, when enabled, will force a read value of ‘0’ from the pin, regardless of the voltage level on the pin. Question 3: I have a PIC18CXX2 with pin RB0 configured as an interrupt input, but am not getting interrupted. When I change my routine to poll the pin, it reads the high input and operates fine. What is the problem? Answer 3: PORTB accepts TTL input levels (on most parts), so when you have an input of say 3V (with VDD = 5V), you will read a ‘1’. However, the buffer to the interrupt structure from pin RB0 is a Schmitt Trigger, which requires a higher voltage (than TTL input) before the high input is registered. So it is possible to read a ‘1’, but not get the interrupt. The interrupt was given a Schmitt Trigger input with hysteresis to minimize noise problems. It is one thing to have short noise spikes on a pin that is a data input that can potentially cause bad data, but quite another to permit noise to cause an interrupt, hence the difference. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 41 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39511A-page 11-42  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. Question 4: When I perform a BCF instruction, other pins get cleared in the port. Why? Answer 4: 1. Another case where a read-modify-write instruction may seem to change other pin values unexpectedly can be illustrated as follows: Suppose you make PORTC all outputs, and drive the pins low. On each of the port pins is an LED connected to ground, such that a high output lights it. Across each LED is a 100 µF capacitor. Let's also suppose that the processor is running very fast, say 20 MHz. Now if you go down the port, setting each pin in order; BSF PORTC,0 then BSF PORTC,1 then BSF PORTC,2 and so on, you may see that only the last pin was set, and only the last LED actually turns on. This is because the capacitors take a while to charge. As each pin was set, the pin before it was not charged yet, and so was read as a zero. This zero is written back out to the port latch (r-m-w, remember), which clears the bit you just tried to set in the previous instruction. This is usually only a concern at high speeds and for successive port operations, but it can happen, so take it into consideration. 2. If this is on a PIC18CXXX device with A/D, you have not configured the I/O pins properly in the ADCON1 register. If a pin is configured for analog input, any read of that pin will read a zero, regardless of the voltage on the pin. This is an exception to the normal rule that the pin state is always read. You can still configure an analog pin as an output in the TRIS register, and drive the pin high or low by writing to it, but you will always read a zero. Therefore, if you execute a Read-Modify-Write instruction (see previous question), all analog pins are read as zero; those not directly modified by the instruction will be written back to the port latch as zero. A pin configured as analog is expected to have values that may be neither high nor low to a digital pin, or floating. Floating inputs on digital pins are a no-no, and can lead to high current draw in the input buffer, so the input buffer is disabled. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 42 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

This port is multiplexed onto one of the device’s I/O ports. The port operates as an 8-bit wide Parallel Slave Port, or microprocessor port, when the PSPMODE control bit is set. In this mode, the input buffers are TTL. In slave mode, the module is asynchronously readable and writable by the external world through the RD control input pin and the WR control input pin. It can directly interface to an 8-bit microprocessor data bus. The external microprocessor can read or write the PORT latch as an 8-bit latch. Setting the PSPMODE bit enables port pins to be the RD input, the WR input, and the CS (chip select) input. There are actually two 8-bit latches, one for data-out (from the PICmicro) and one for data input. The user writes 8-bit data to the PORT data latch and reads data from the port pin latch (note that they have the same address). In this mode, the TRIS register is ignored, since the microprocessor is controlling the direction of data flow. Register 12-1 shows the block diagram for the PSP module. Figure 12-1: PORTD and PORTE Block Diagram (Parallel Slave Port) Note 1: At present the Parallel Slave Port (PSP) is only multiplexed onto PORTD and PORTE. The microprocessor port becomes enabled when the PSPMODE bit is set. In this mode, the user must make sure that PORTD and PORTE are configured as digital I/O. That is, peripheral modules multiplexed onto the PSP functions are disabled (such as the A/D). When PORTE is configured for digital I/O, PORTD will override the values in the TRISD register. 2: In this mode the PORTD and PORTE input buffers are TTL. The control bits for the PSP operation are located in TRISE.

DS39512-page 12-5 Section 12. Parallel Slave Port Parallel Slave Port 12 12.3 Operation A write to the PSP from the external system occurs when both the CS and WR lines are first detected low. When either the CS or WR lines become high (edge triggered), the Input Buffer Full status flag bit IBF is set on the Q4 clock cycle following the next Q2 cycle. This signals that the write is complete. The interrupt flag bit, PSPIF, is also set on the same Q4 clock cycle. The IBF flag bit is inhibited from being cleared for additional TCY cycles (see parameter 66 in the "Electrical Specifications" section). If the IBF flag bit is cleared by reading the PORTD input latch, then this has to be a read-only instruction (i.e., MOVF) and not a read-modify-write instruction. The Input Buffer Overflow status flag bit IBOV is set if a second write to the Parallel Slave Port is attempted when the previous byte has not been read out of the buffer. A read of the PSP from the external system occurs when both the CS and RD lines are first detected low. The Output Buffer Full status flag bit OBF is cleared immediately indicating that the PORTD latch was read by the external bus. When either the CS or RD pin becomes high (edge triggered), the interrupt flag bit, PSPIF, is set on the Q4 clock cycle following the next Q2 cycle, indicating that the read is complete. OBF remains low until data is written to PORTD by the user firmware. Input Buffer Full Status Flag bit, IBF, is set if a received word is waiting to be read by the CPU. Once the PORT input latch is read, the IBF bit is cleared. The IBF bit is a read only status bit. Output Buffer Full Status Flag bit, OBF, is set if a word written to the PORT latch is waiting to be read by the external bus. Once the PORTD output latch is read by the microprocessor, OBF is cleared. Input Buffer Overflow Status Flag bit, IBOV, is set if a second write to the microprocessor port is attempted when the previous word has not been read by the CPU (the first word is retained in the buffer). When not in Parallel Slave Port mode, the IBF and OBF bits are held clear. However, if the IBOV bit was previously set, it must be cleared in the software. An interrupt is generated and latched into flag bit PSPIF when a read or a write operation is completed. Interrupt flag bit PSPIF must be cleared by user software and the interrupt can be disabled by clearing interrupt enable bit PSPIE.

This is done by programming the appropriate bits in the T0CON register. 13.3.1 8-Bit/16-Bit Modes Timer0 can be configured as an 8-bit or a 16-bit counter. The default state for Timer0 is an 8-bit counter. To configure the timer as a 16-bit counter, the T08BIT bit (T0CON register) must be cleared. If the timer is configured as an 8-bit timer, the MSB of TMR0 (TMR0H) is held clear and will read 00h. Normally once the mode of the timer is selected, it is not changed. Some applications may require the ability to switch back and forth between 8-bit and 16-bit modes. The two cases are: 1. Changing from 8-bit to 16-bit mode 2. Changing from 16-bit to 8-bit mode The condition when bit 7 of the Timer0 rolls over must be addressed. If Timer0 is configured as an 8-bit timer and is changed to a 16-bit timer on the same cycle as a rollover occurs, no interrupt is generated. If Timer0 is configured as a 16-bit timer and is changed to an 8-bit timer on the same cycle as a rollover occurs, the TMR0IF bit will be set. 13.3.1.1 16-Bit Mode Timer Reads TMR0H is not the high byte of the timer/counter, but actually a buffered version of the high byte of Timer0. The high byte of the Timer0 counter/timer is not directly readable or writable. TMR0H is updated with the contents of the high byte of Timer0 during a read of TMR0L. This provides a user with the ability to read all 16 bits of Timer0 without having to verify that the read of the high and low byte were valid due to a rollover between successive reads of the high and low byte. The user simply reads the low byte of Timer0, followed by a read of TMR0H, which contains the value in the high byte of Timer0 at the time that the low byte was read. 13.3.1.2 16-Bit Mode Timer Write A write to the high byte of Timer0 must also take place through the TMR0H buffer register. Timer0 high byte is updated with the contents of TMR0H when a write occurs to TMR0L. This allows a user to update all 16 bits to both the high and low bytes of Timer0 at once (see Figure 13-2). When performing a write of TMR0, the carry is held off during the write of the TMR0L register. Writes to the TMR0H register only modify the holding latch, not the timer (TMR0<15:8>). Steps to write to the TMR0: 1. Load the TMR0H register. 2. Write to the TMR0L register. 13.3.1.3 16-Bit Read/Modify Write Read-modify-write instructions like BSF or BCF, read the contents of a register, make the appropriate changes, and place the result back into the register. The read cycle of a read-modify-write instruction of TMR0L will not update the contents of the TMR0H buffer. The TMR0H buffer will remain unchanged. When the write cycle (to TMR0L) of the instruction takes place, the contents of TMR0H are placed into the high byte of Timer0. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 4 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39513A-page 13-5 Section 13. Timer0 Timer0 14 13.3.2 Timer/Counter Modes Timer mode is selected by clearing the T0CS bit (T0CON register). In timer mode, the Timer0 module will increment every instruction cycle (without prescaler). If the TMR0 register is written, the increment is inhibited for the following two instruction cycles. The user can work around this by writing an adjusted value to the TMR0 register. Counter mode is selected by setting the T0CS bit (T0CON register). In counter mode, Timer0 will increment either on every rising or falling edge of the T0CKI pin. The incrementing edge is determined by the Timer0 Source Edge Select bit T0SE (T0CON register). Clearing the T0SE bit selects the rising edge. Restrictions on the external clock input are discussed in detail in Section 13.5.1. 13.4 Timer0 Interrupt The TMR0 interrupt flag bit is set when the TMR0 register overflows. When TMR0 is in 8-bit mode, this means the overflow from FFh to 00h. When TMR0 is in 16-bit mode, this means the overflow from FFFFh to 0000h. This overflow sets the TMR0IF bit (INTCON register). The interrupt can be disabled by clearing the TMR0IE bit (INTCON register). The TMR0IF bit must be cleared in software by the interrupt service routine. The TMR0 interrupt cannot awaken the processor from SLEEP, since the timer is shut off during SLEEP. See Figure 13-3 for Timer0 interrupt timing.

The requirements ensure the external clock can be synchronized with the internal phase clock (TSCLK). Also, there is a delay in the actual incrementing of Timer0 after synchronization. 13.5.1 External Clock Synchronization When no prescaler is used, the external clock input is used instead of the prescaler output. The synchronization of T0CKI with the internal phase clocks is accomplished by sampling the prescaler output on the Q2 and Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks (Figure 13-4). Therefore, it is necessary for T0CKI to be high for at least 2TSCLK (and a small RC delay) and low for at least 2TSCLK (and a small RC delay). Refer to parameters 40, 41 and 42 in the electrical specification of the desired device. When a prescaler is used, the external clock input is divided by the prescaler so that the prescaler output is symmetrical. For the external clock to meet the sampling requirement, the ripple-counter must be taken into account. Therefore, it is necessary for T0CKI to have a period of at least 4TSCLK (and a small RC delay) divided by the prescaler value. The only requirement on T0CKI high and low time is that they do not violate the minimum pulse width requirement. Refer to parameters 40, 41 and 42 in the electrical specification of the desired device. 13.5.2 TMR0 Increment Delay Since the prescaler output is synchronized with the internal clocks, there is a small delay from the time the external clock edge occurs to the time the Timer0 module is actually incremented. Figure 13-4 shows the delay from the external clock edge to the timer incrementing.

(Duration of Q = Tosc). Therefore, the error in measuring the interval between two edges on Timer0 input = ±4Tosc max. 2: External clock if no prescaler selected, prescaler output otherwise. 3: The arrows indicate the points in time where sampling occurs. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39513A-page 13-7 Section 13. Timer0 Timer0 14 13.6 Timer0 Prescaler An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the Timer0 module (Figure 13-5). The PSA and T0PS2:T0PS0 bits (T0CON register) are the prescaler enable and prescale select bits. All instructions that write to the Timer0 (TMR0) register (such as: CLRF TMR0; BSF TMR0,x; MOVWF TMR0; ....etc.) will clear the prescaler if enabled. The prescaler is not readable or writable. Writes to TMR0H do not clear the Timer0 prescaler in 16-bit mode, because a write to TMR0H only modifies the Timer0 latch and does not change the contents of Timer0. The prescaler is only cleared on writes to TMR0L. Figure 13-5: Block Diagram of the Timer0 Prescaler The prescaler for Timer0 is enabled or disabled in software by the PSA bit (T0CON register). Setting the PSA bit will enable the prescaler. The prescaler can be modified under software control through the T0PS2:T0PS0 bits. This allows the prescaler reload value to be readable and writable. The prescaler count value (the contents of the prescaler) can not be read or written. When the prescaler is enabled, prescale values of 1:2, 1:4, ..., 1:256 are selectable.

Any write to the TMR0 register will cause a 2 instruction cycle (2TCY) inhibit. That is, after the TMR0 register has been written with the new value, TMR0 will not be incremented until the third instruction cycle later (Figure 13-6). When the prescaler is assigned to the Timer0 module, any write to the TMR0 register will immediately update the TMR0 register and clear the prescaler. The incrementing of Timer0 (TMR0 and Prescaler) will also be inhibited 2 instruction cycles (TCY). So if the prescaler is configured as 2, then after a write to the TMR0 register, TMR0 will not increment for 4 Timer0 clocks (Figure 13-7). After that, TMR0 will increment every prescaler number of clocks later.

Answer 1: If you are polling TMR0 to see if it has rolled over to zero, you could do this by executing: wait MOVF TMR0,W ; read the timer into W BTFSS STATUS,Z ; see if it was zero, if so, ; break from loop GOTO wait ; if not zero yet, keep waiting Two possible scenarios to lose clock cycles are: 1. If you are incrementing TMR0 from the internal instruction clock (or an external source that is about as fast), the overflow could occur during the two cycle GOTO, so you could miss it. In this case, the TMR0 source should be prescaled. 2. When writing to TMR0, two instruction clock cycles are lost. Often you have a specific time period you want to count, say 100 decimal. In that case, you might put 156 into TMR0 (256 - 100 = 156). However, since two instruction cycles are lost when you write to TMR0 (for internal logic synchronization), you should actually write 158 to the timer. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 10 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The TMR1 register pair (TMR1H:TMR1L) increments from 0000h to FFFFh and rolls over to 0000h. If enabled, the Timer1 Interrupt is generated on overflow that is latched in the TMR1IF interrupt flag bit. This interrupt can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing the TMR1IE interrupt enable bit. Timer1 can operate in one of three modes: • As a synchronous timer • As a synchronous counter • As an asynchronous counter The operating mode is determined by clock select bit, TMR1CS (T1CON register), and the synchronization bit, T1SYNC (Figure 14-1). In timer mode, Timer1 increments every instruction cycle. In counter mode, it increments on every rising edge of the external clock input pin T1OSI. Timer1 can be turned on and off using theTMR1ON control bit (T1CON register). Timer1 also has an internal “reset input”, which can be generated by a CCP module. Timer1 has the capability to operate off an external crystal. When the Timer1 oscillator is enabled (T1OSCEN is set), the T1OSI and T1OSO pins become inputs, so their corresponding TRIS values are ignored.

DS39514A-page 14-5 Section 14. Timer1 Timer1 14 14.3 Timer1 Operation in Timer Mode Timer mode is selected by clearing the TMR1CS (T1CON register) bit. In this mode, the input clock to the timer is FOSC/4. The synchronize control bit, T1SYNC (T1CON register), has no effect since the internal clock is always synchronized. 14.4 Timer1 Operation in Synchronized Counter Mode Counter mode is selected by setting the TMR1CS bit. In this mode, the timer increments on every rising edge of clock input on the T1OSI pin when the Timer1 oscillator enable bit (T1OSCEN) is set, or the T1OSO/T13CKI pin when the T1OSCEN bit is cleared. If the T1SYNC bit is cleared, then the external clock input is synchronized with internal phase clocks. The synchronization is done after the prescaler stage. The prescaler operates asynchronously. The timer increments at the Q4:Q1 edge. In this configuration, during SLEEP mode, Timer1 will not increment even if the external clock is present, since the synchronization circuit is shut off. The prescaler however will continue to increment. 14.4.1 External Clock Input Timing for Synchronized Counter Mode When an external clock input is used for Timer1 in synchronized counter mode, it must meet certain requirements. The external clock requirement is due to internal phase clock (TSCLK) synchronization. Also, there is a delay in the actual incrementing of TMR1 after synchronization. When the prescaler is 1:1, the external clock input is the same as the prescaler output. The synchronization of T1CKI with the internal phase clocks is accomplished by sampling the prescaler output on alternating TscLK clocks of the internal phase clocks. Therefore, it is necessary for the T1CKI pin to be high for at least 2TscLK (and a small RC delay) and low for at least 2TscLK (and a small RC delay). Refer to parameters 45, 46, and 47 in the “Electrical Specifications” section. When a prescaler other than 1:1 is used, the external clock input is divided by the asynchronous prescaler so that the prescaler output is symmetrical. In order for the external clock to meet the sampling requirement, the prescaler counter must be taken into account. Therefore, it is necessary for the T1CKI pin to have a period of at least 4TscLK (and a small RC delay) divided by the prescaler value. Another requirement on the T1CKI pin high and low time is that they do not violate the minimum pulse width requirements). Refer to parameters 40, 42, 45, 46, and 47 in the “Electrical Specifications” section. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 5 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39514A-page 14-6  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 14.5 Timer1 Operation in Asynchronous Counter Mode If T1SYNC (T1CON register) is set, the external clock input is not synchronized. The timer continues to increment asynchronously to the internal phase clocks. The timer will continue to run during SLEEP and can generate an interrupt on overflow that will wake-up the processor. However, special precautions in software are needed to read/write the timer (Subsection 14.6.4 “Reading and Writing Timer1 in Asynchronous Counter Mode with RD16 = 0” ). Since the counter can operate in sleep, Timer1 can be used to implement a true real-time clock. The timer increments at the Q4:Q1 and Q2:Q3 edges. In asynchronous counter mode, Timer1 cannot be used as a time-base for capture or compare operations. 14.5.1 External Clock Input Timing with Unsynchronized Clock If the T1SYNC control bit is set, the timer will increment completely asynchronously. The input clock must meet certain minimum high time and low time requirements. Refer to the Device Data Sheet “Electrical Specifications” section, timing parameters 45, 46, and 47. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39514A-page 14-7 Section 14. Timer1 Timer1 14 14.6 Reading and Writing of Timer1 Timer1 has modes that allow the 16-bit timer register to be read/written as two 8-bit registers or one 16-bit register. The mode depends on the state of the RD16 bit. The following subsections discuss this operation. 14.6.1 Timer1 and 16-bit Read/Write Modes Timer1 can be configured for 16-bit reads and writes. When the RD16 control bit (T1CON register) is set, the address for TMR1H is mapped to a buffer register for the high byte of Timer1. A read from TMR1L will load the contents of the high byte of Timer1 into the Timer1 high byte buffer. This provides the user with the ability to accurately read all 16 bits of Timer1 without having to determine whether a read of the high byte followed by a read of the low byte is valid due to a rollover between reads. 14.6.2 16-bit Mode Timer Write A write to the high byte of Timer1 must also take place through the TMR1H buffer register. Timer1 high byte is updated with the contents of TMR1H when a write occurs to TMR1L. This allows a user to write all 16 bits to both the high and low bytes of Timer1 at once (See Figure 14-3). The high byte of Timer1 is not directly readable or writable in this mode. All reads and writes must take place through the Timer1 high byte buffer register. Writes to TMR1H do not clear the Timer1 prescaler. The prescaler is only cleared on writes to TMR1L. 14.6.3 16-bit Read-Modify-Write Read-modify-write instructions like BSF or BCF will read the contents of a register, make the appropriate changes, and place the result back into the register. In the case of Timer1 when configured in 16-bit mode, the read portion of a read-modify-write instruction of TMR1L will not update the contents of the TMR1H buffer. The TMR1H buffer will remain unchanged. When the write of TMR1L portion of the instruction takes place, the contents of TMR1H will be placed into the high byte of Timer1.

However, the user should keep in mind that reading the 16-bit timer in two 8-bit values itself poses certain problems, since the timer may overflow between the reads. For writes, it is recommended that the user simply stop the timer and write the desired values. A write contention may occur by writing to the timer registers while the register is incrementing. This may produce an unpredictable value in the timer register. Reading the 16-bit value requires some care, since two separate reads are required to read the entire 16-bits. Example 14-1 shows why this may not be a straight forward read of the 16-bit register.

This is useful if the timer cannot be stopped. Example 14-2: Reading a 16-bit Free-Running Timer Writing a 16-bit value to the 16-bit TMR1 register is straightforward. First the TMR1L register is cleared to ensure that there are many Timer1 clock/oscillator cycles before there is a rollover into the TMR1H register. The TMR1H register is then loaded, and finally the TMR1L register is loaded. Example 14-3 shows a routine that does a 16-bit write to a Free Running Timer.

The output of this oscillator can be selected as the input into Timer1. The Timer1 oscillator is primarily intended to operate as a timebase for the timer modules; therefore, the oscillator is primarily intended for a 32 kHz crystal, which is an ideal frequency for real-time keeping. In real-time applications, the timer needs to increment during SLEEP, so SLEEP does not disable the Timer1 oscillator. For many applications, power consumption is also an issue, so the oscillator is designed to minimize power consumption. The Timer1 oscillator is enabled by setting the T1OSCEN control bit (T1CON register). After the Timer1 oscillator is enabled, the user must provide a software time delay to ensure proper oscillator start-up. Table 14-1 shows the capacitor selection for the Timer1 oscillator. Table 14-1: Capacitor Selection for the Timer1 Oscillator Note: The Timer1 oscillator allows the counter to operate (increment) when the device is in sleep mode. This allows Timer1 to be used as a real-time clock.

DS39514A-page 14-11 Section 14. Timer1 Timer1 14 14.8 Typical Application In Figure 14-4 an example application is given, where Timer1 is driven from an external 32 kHz oscillator. The external 32 kHz oscillator is typically used in applications where real-time needs to be kept, but it is also desirable to have the lowest possible power consumption. The Timer1 oscillator allows the device to be placed in sleep while the timer continues to increment. When Timer1 overflows, the interrupt wakes up the device so that the appropriate registers can be updated. Figure 14-4: Timer1 Application In this example, a 32 kHz crystal is used as the time base for the Real Time Clock. If the clock needs to be updated at 1 second intervals, then the Timer1 must be loaded with a value to allow the Timer1 to overflow at the desired rate. In the case of a 1 second Timer1 overflow, the TMR1H register should be loaded with a value of 80k after each overflow. 8 4 4 4 4x4 Keypad Current Sink TMR1 VSS VDD 32 kHz Backup Battery Power-Down Detect T1OSI T1OSO OSC1 TT1P Note: The TMR1L register should never be modified, since an external clock is asychronous to the system clock. Writes to the TRM1L register may corrupt the real time counter value causing inaccuracies. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39514A-page 14-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 14.9 Sleep Operation When Timer1 is configured for asynchronous operation, the TMR1 registers will continue to increment for each timer clock (or prescale multiple of clocks). When the TMR1 register overflows, the TMR1IF bit will get set. If enabled, this will generate an interrupt that will wake the processor from sleep mode. The Timer1 oscillator will add a delta current, due to the operation of this circuitry. That is, the power-down current will no longer only be the leakage current of the device, but also the active current of the Timer1 oscillator and other circuitry. 14.10 Resetting Timer1 Using a CCP Trigger Output If a CCP module is configured in compare mode to generate a “Special Event Trigger” (CCP1M3:CCP1M0 = 1011), this signal resets Timer1. Timer1 must be configured for either timer or synchronized counter mode to take advantage of the special event trigger feature. If Timer1 is running in asynchronous counter mode, this reset operation may not work and should not be used. In the event that a write to Timer1 coincides with a special event trigger from the CCP module, the write will take precedence. In this mode of operation, the CCPRxH:CCPRxL register pair effectively becomes the period register for Timer1. 14.10.1 CCP Trigger and A/D Module Some devices that have the CCP Trigger capability also have an A/D module. These devices may be able to be configured, so the “Special Event Trigger” not only resets the Timer1 registers, 0but will start an A/D conversion. This allows a constant sampling rate for the A/D, as specified by the value of the compare registers. Note: The special event trigger from the CCP module does not set interrupt flag bit TMR1IF. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 12 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39514A-page 14-13 Section 14. Timer1 Timer1 14 14.11 Resetting Timer1 Register Pair (TMR1H:TMR1L) TMR1H and TMR1L registers are not cleared on any reset, only by the CCP special event triggers. T1CON register is reset to 00h on a Power-on Reset or a Brown-out Reset. In any other reset, the register is unaffected. Timer1 is the default time base for the CCP1 and CCP2 modules. The timer can be disabled as the time base for either CCP1, CCP2, or both, and Timer3 can be substituted. This is achieved by setting control bits in the Timer3 control register. This is explained in Section 16.8 - Timer3 and CCPx Enable. When Timer1 is disabled as a the time base for a CCP, the reset on Compare will have no effect on Timer1. 14.12 Timer1 Prescaler The prescaler counter is cleared on writes to the TMR1H or TMR1L registers. 14.12.1 Timer1 Prescaler 16-bit Read/WriteMode Writes to TMR1H do not clear the Timer1 prescaler in 16-bit read/write mode, because a write to TMR1H only modifies the Timer1 latch and does not change the contents of Timer1. The prescaler is only cleared on writes to TMR1L.

Answer 1: There are a few reasons that this could occur: 1. You should never write to Timer1 where that could cause the loss of time. In most cases, that means you should not write to the TMR1L register, but if the conditions are OK, you may write to the TMR1H register. Normally, you write to the TMR1H register if you want the Timer1 overflow interrupt to be sooner than the full 16-bit time-out. 2. You should ensure that your layout uses good PCB layout techniques so noise does not couple onto the Timer1/Timer3 oscillator lines. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 16 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Using the prescaler and postscaler at their maximum settings, the overflow time is the same as a 16-bit timer. Timer2 is the PWM time-base when the CCP module(s) is used in the PWM mode. Figure 15-1 shows a block diagram of Timer2. The postscaler counts the number of times that the TMR2 register matched the PR2 register. This can be useful in reducing the overhead of the interrupt service routine on the CPU performance.

A prescale option of 1:1, 1:4 or 1:16 is software selected by control bits T2CKPS1:T2CKPS0 (T2CON register). 15.4 Timer (TMR2) and Period (PR2) Registers The TMR2 register is readable and writable, and is cleared on all device resets. Timer2 increments from 00h until it matches PR2 and then resets to 00h on the next increment cycle. PR2 is a readable and writable register. The TMR2 register is cleared and the PR2 register is set when a WDT, POR, MCLR or a BOR reset occurs. Timer2 can be shut off (disabled from incrementing) by clearing the TMR2ON control bit (T2CON register). This minimizes the power consumption of the module. 15.5 TMR2 Match Output The match output of TMR2 goes to two sources: 1. Timer2 Postscaler 2. SSP Clock Input There are 4-bits which select the postscaler. This allows the postscaler a 1:1 to 1:16 scaling (inclusive). After the postscaler overflows, the TMR2 interrupt flag bit (TMR2IF) is set to indicate the Timer2 overflow. This is useful in reducing the software overhead of the Timer2 interrupt service routine, since it will only execute once every postscaler # of matches. The match output of TMR2 is also routed to the Synchronous Serial Port module, which may select this via software, as the clock source for the shift clock. 15.6 Clearing the Timer2 Prescaler and Postscaler The prescaler and postscaler counters are cleared when any of the following occurs: • a write to the TMR2 register • a write to the T2CON register • any device reset (Power-on Reset, MCLR reset, Watchdog Timer Reset, Brown-out Reset) 15.7 Sleep Operation During sleep, TMR2 will not increment. The prescaler will retain the last prescale count, ready for operation to resume after the device wakes from sleep.

The TMR3 register pair (TMR3H:TMR3L) increments from 0000h to FFFFh and rolls over to 0000h. The Timer3 Interrupt, if enabled, is generated on overflow, which is latched in the TMR3IF interrupt flag bit. This interrupt can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing the TMR3IE interrupt enable bit. Timer3 can operate in one of three modes: • As a synchronous timer • As a synchronous counter • As an asynchronous counter Some features of Timer3 include: • TMR3 also has an internal “reset input”, which can be generated by a CCP module. • TMR3 has the capability to operate off an external crystal/clock. • TMR3 is the alternate time base for capture/compare In timer mode, Timer3 increments every instruction cycle. In counter mode, it increments on every rising edge of the external clock input. The Timer3 increment can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing control bit TMR3ON (T3CON register). Timer3 also has an internal “reset input”. This reset can be generated by a CCP special event trigger (Capture/Compare/PWM) module. See the CCP (Capture/Compare/PWM) section for details. When the Timer1 oscillator is enabled (T1OSCEN, in T1CON, is set), the T1OSCI1 and T1OSO2 pins are configured as oscillator input and output, so the corresponding values in the TRIS register are ignored. The Timer3 module also has a software programmable prescaler. The operating mode is determined by clock select bit, TMR3CS (T3CON register), and the synchronization bit, T3SYNC (Figure 16-1).

In this mode, the input clock to the timer is FOSC/4. The synchronize control bit, T3SYNC (T3CON register), has no effect since the internal clock is always synchronized. 16.4 Timer3 Operation in Synchronized Counter Mode Counter mode is selected by setting bit TMR3CS. In this mode, the timer increments on every rising edge of input on the T1OSI pin (when enable bit T1OSCEN is set) or the T13CKI pin (when bit T1OSCEN is cleared). If the T3SYNC bit is cleared, then the external clock input is synchronized with internal phase clocks. The synchronization is done after the prescaler stage. The prescaler operates asynchronously. The timer increments at the Q4:Q1 edge. In this configuration, during SLEEP mode, Timer3 will not increment even if an external clock is present, since the synchronization circuit is shut off. The prescaler, however, will continue to increment. 16.4.1 External Clock Input Timing for Synchronized Counter Mode When an external clock input is used for Timer3 in synchronized counter mode, it must meet certain requirements. The external clock requirement is due to internal phase clock (TSCLK) synchronization. Also, there is a delay in the actual incrementing of TMR3 after synchronization. When the prescaler is 1:1, the external clock input is the same as the prescaler output. There is synchronization of T1OSI/T13CKI with the internal phase clocks. Therefore, it is necessary for (T1OSI/T13CKI to be high for at least 2TSCLK (and a small RC delay) and low for at least 2TSCLK (and a small RC relay). Refer to parameters 45, 46, and 47 in the “Electrical Specifications” section. When a prescaler other than 1:1 is used, the external clock input is divided by the asynchronous prescaler, so that the prescaler output is symmetrical. In order for the external clock to meet the sampling requirement, the prescaler counter must be taken into account. Therefore, it is necessary for T1OSI/T1CKI to have a period of at least 4TSCLK (and a small RC delay) divided by the prescaler value. The only requirement on T1OSI/T1CKI high and low time is that they do not violate the minimum pulse width requirements. Refer to parameters 40, 42, 45, 46, and 47 in the “Electrical Specifications” section. Note: Timer3 gets its external clock input from the same source as Timer1. The configuration of the Timer1 and Timer3 clock input will be controlled by the T1OSCEN bit in the Timer1 control register. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 4 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39516A-page 16-5 Section 16. Timer3 Timer3 16 16.5 Timer3 Operation in Asynchronous Counter Mode If T3SYNC (T3CON register) is set, the external clock input is not synchronized. The timer continues to increment asynchronously to the internal phase clocks. The timer will continue to run during SLEEP and can generate an interrupt on overflow that will wake-up the processor. However, special precautions in software are needed to read/write the timer (Subsection 16.6.4 “Reading and Writing Timer3 in Asynchronous Counter Mode with RD16 = 0” ). Since the counter can operate in sleep, Timer1 can be used to implement a true real-time clock. The timer increments at the Q4:Q1 and Q2:Q3 edges. In asynchronous counter mode, Timer3 cannot be used as a time-base for capture or compare operations. 16.5.1 External Clock Input Timing with Unsynchronized Clock If the T3SYNC control bit is set, the timer will increment completely asynchronously. The input clock must meet certain minimum high time and low time requirements. Refer to the Device Data Sheet “Electrical Specifications” section, timing parameters 45, 46, and 47. Note: The control bit T3SYNC is not usable when the system clock source comes from the same source as the Timer1/Timer3 clock input, because the T1CKI input will be sampled at one quarter the frequency of the incoming clock. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 5 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39516A-page 16-6  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 16.6 Reading and Writing of Timer3 Timer3 has modes that allow the 16-bit timer register to be read/written as two 8-bit registers or one 16-bit register. The mode depends on the state of the RD16 bit. The follow subsections discuss this operation. 16.6.1 Timer3 and 16-bit Read/Write Modes Timer3 can be configured for 16-bit reads. When the RD16 control bit (T3CON register) is set, the address for TMR3H is mapped to a buffer register for the high byte of Timer3. A read from TMR3L will load the contents of the high byte of Timer3 into the Timer3 high byte buffer. This provides the user with the ability to accurately read all 16-bits of Timer3 without having to determine whether a read of the high byte followed by a read of the low byte is valid due to a rollover between reads. 16.6.2 16-bit Mode Timer Write A write to the high byte of Timer3 must also take place through the TMR3H buffer register. Timer3 high byte is updated with the contents of TMR3H when a write occurs to TMR3L. This allows a user to write all 16 bits to both the high and low bytes of Timer3 at once (See Figure 16-2). The high byte of Timer3 is not directly readable or writable in this mode. All reads and writes must take place through the Timer3 high byte buffer register. Writes to TMR3H do not clear the Timer3 prescaler. The prescaler is only cleared on writes to TMR3L. 16.6.3 16-bit Read-Modify-Write Read-modify-write instructions like BSF or BCF will read the contents of a register, make the appropriate changes, and place the result back into the register. In the case of Timer3 when configured in 16-bit mode, the read portion of a read-modify-write instruction of TMR3L will not update the contents of the TMR3H buffer. The TMR3H buffer will remain unchanged. When the write of TMR3L portion of the instruction takes place, the contents of TMR3H will be placed into the high byte of Timer3.

Timer3 Timer3 16 16.6.4 Reading and Writing Timer3 in Asynchronous Counter Mode with RD16 = 0 Reading TMR3H or TMR3L while the timer is running from an external asynchronous clock will ensure a valid read (taken care of in hardware). However, the user should keep in mind that reading the 16-bit timer in two 8-bit values poses certain problems, since the timer may overflow between the reads. For writes, it is recommended that the user simply stop the timer and write the desired values. A write contention may occur by writing to the timer registers, while the register is incrementing. This may produce an unpredictable value in the timer register. Reading the 16-bit value requires some care, since two separate reads are required to read the entire 16-bits. Example 16-1 shows why this may not be a straightforward read of the 16-bit register.

Example 16-2 shows a routine to read the 16-bit timer value without experiencing the issues shown in Example 16-1. This is useful if the timer cannot be stopped. Example 16-2:Reading a 16-bit Free-Running Timer Writing a 16-bit value to the 16-bit TMR3 register is straight forward. First the TMR3L register is cleared to ensure that there are many Timer3 clock/oscillator cycles before there is a rollover into the TMR3H register. The TMR3H register is then loaded, and finally, the TMR3L register is loaded. Example 16-3 shows a routine that accomplishes this: Example 16-3:Writing a 16-bit Free Running Timer ; All interrupts are disabled MOVF TMR3H, W ; Read high byte MOVWF TMPH ; MOVF TMR3L, W ; Read low byte MOVWF TMPL ; MOVF TMR3H, W ; Read high byte SUBWF TMPH, W ; Sub 1st read with 2nd read BTFSC STATUS,Z ; Is result = 0 GOTO CONTINUE ; Good 16-bit read ; ; TMR3L may have rolled over between the read of the high and low bytes. ; Reading the high and low bytes now will read a good value. ; MOVF TMR3H, W ; Read high byte MOVWF TMPH ; MOVF TMR3L, W ; Read low byte MOVWF TMPL ; ; Re-enable the Interrupt (if required) CONTINUE ; Continue with your code ; All interrupts are disabled CLRF TMR3L ; Clear Low byte, Ensures no ; rollover into TMR3H MOVLW HI_BYTE ; Value to load into TMR3H MOVWF TMR3H, F ; Write High byte MOVLW LO_BYTE ; Value to load into TMR3L MOVWF TMR3H, F ; Write Low byte ; Re-enable the Interrupt (if required) CONTINUE ; Continue with your code 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 8 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The output of this oscillator can be selected as the input into Timer3. The Timer1 oscillator is primarily intended to operate as a timebase for the timer modules; therefore, the oscillator is primarily intended for a 32 kHz crystal, which is an ideal frequency for real-time keeping. In real-time applications, the timer needs to increment during SLEEP, so SLEEP does not disable the Timer1 oscillator. For many applications, power consumption is also an issue, so the oscillator is designed to minimize consumption. The Timer1 oscillator is enabled by setting the T1OSCEN control bit (T1CON register). After the Timer1 oscillator is enabled, the user must provide a software time delay to ensure proper oscillator start-up. Table 16-1 shows the capacitor selection for the Timer1 oscillator. Table 16-1: Capacitor Selection for the Timer1 oscillator Note: The Timer1 oscillator allows the counter to operate (increment) when the device is in sleep mode. This allows Timer1 to be used as a real-time clock.

Table 16-2: T3CCPx, TMR1, and TMR3 After reset, Timer1 defaults as the time base for compare and capture for both CCP’s. 16.8.1 Resetting Timer3 Using a CCP Trigger Output If the T3CCP2 or T3CCP1 bit is set and CCP1 or CCP2 is configured in Compare mode to generate a “Special Event Trigger” (CCPxM3:CCPxM0 = 1011), this signal will reset Timer3. Timer3 must be configured for either timer or synchronized counter mode to take advantage of this feature. If Timer3 is running in asynchronous counter mode, this reset operation may not work. In the event that a write to Timer3 coincides with a special event trigger from a CCP module, the write will take precedence. In this mode of operation, the CCPRxH:CCPRxL register pair effectively becomes the period register for the Timer3 module. 16.8.2 Resetting of TMR3 Register Pair (TMR3H:TMR3L) TMR3H and TMR3L registers are not cleared on any reset, only by the CCP special event triggers. T1CON register is reset to 00h on a Power-on Reset or a Brown-out Reset. In any other reset, the register is unaffected. Timer3 is the default time base for the CCP1 and CCP2 modules. The timer can be disabled as the time base for either CCP1, CCP2, or both, and Timer3 can be substituted. This is achieved by setting control bits in the Timer3 control register. This is explained in Section 16.8 - Timer3 and CCPx Enable. When Timer3 is disabled as a the time base for a CCP, the reset on compare for that particular CCP will have no effect on Timer3. 16.9 Timer3 Prescaler The prescaler counter is cleared on writes to the TMR3H or TMR3L registers. 16.9.1 Timer3 Prescaler 16-bit Read/Write Mode Writes to TMR3H do not clear the Timer3 prescaler in 16-bit read/write mode, because a write to TMR3H only modifies the Timer3 latch and does not change the contents of Timer3. The prescaler is only cleared on writes to TMR3L.

DS39516A-page 16-11 Section 16. Timer3 Timer3 16 16.10 16-bit Mode Timer Reads/Writes Timer3 has modes that allow the 16-bit time register to be read as two 8-bit registers or one 16-bit register depending on the state of the RD16 bit. When the RD16 control bit is set, the address for TMR3H is mapped to a buffer register for the high byte of Timer3. A read from TMR3L will load the contents of the high byte of Timer3 into the Timer3 high byte buffer. This provides the user with the ability to accurately read all 16 bits of Timer3 without having to determine whether a read of the high byte followed by a read of the low byte is valid due to a rollover between reads. 16.10.1 16-bit Mode Timer Write A write to the high byte of Timer3 must also take place through the TMR3H buffer register. Timer3 high byte is updated with the contents of TMR3H when a write occurs to TMR3L. This allows a user to write all 16 bits to both the high and low bytes of Timer3 at once (See Figure 16-3). The high byte of Timer3 is not directly readable or writable in this mode. All reads and writes must take place through the Timer3 high byte buffer register. 16.10.2 16-bit Read/Modify Write Read modify write instructions like BSF or BCF will read the contents of a register, make the appropriate changes, and place the result back into the register. In the case of Timer3 when configured in 16-bit Read/Write mode, the read portion of a read-modify-write instruction of TMR3L will not update the contents of the TMR3H buffer. The TMR3H buffer will remain unchanged. When the write of TMR3L portion of the instruction takes place, the contents of TMR3H will be placed into the high byte of Timer3.

The Timer1 oscillator allows the device to be placed in sleep, while the timer continues to increment. When Timer3 overflows the interrupt wakes up the device so that the appropriate registers can be updated. Figure 16-4: Timer3 Application In this example, a 32kHz crystal is used as the time base for the Real Time Clock. If the clock needs to be updated at 1 second intervals, then the Timer1 must be loaded with a value to allow the Timer1 to overflow at the desired rate. In the case of a 1 second Timer1 overflow, the TMR1H register should be loaded with a value of 80k after each overflow. 8 4 4 4 4x4 Keypad Current Sink VSS VDD 32 kHz Backup Battery Power-Down Detect OSC1 TMR3 T1OSI T1OSO TT1P Note: The TMR3L register should never be modified, since an external clock is asychronous to the system clock.

Timer3 Timer3 16 16.12 Sleep Operation When Timer3 is configured for asynchronous operation, the TMR3 registers will continue to increment for each timer clock (or prescale multiple of clocks). When the TMR3 register overflows, the TMR3IF bit will get set, and if enabled, generate an interrupt that will wake the processor from sleep mode. The Timer1 oscillator will add a delta current, due to the operation of this circuitry. That is, the power-down current will no longer only be the leakage current of the device, but also the active current of the Timer1 oscillator and other Timer1 circuitry. 16.13 Timer3 Prescaler The prescaler counter is cleared on writes to the TMR3H or TMR3L registers.

Answer 1: There are a few reasons that this could occur: 1. You should never write to Timer3, where that could cause the loss of time. In most cases, that means you should not write to the TMR3L register, but if the conditions are ok, you may write to the TMR3H register. Normally you write to the TMR3H register if you want the Timer3 overflow interrupt to be sooner then the full 16-bit time-out. 2. You should ensure the your layout uses good PCB layout techniques so that noise does not couple onto the Timer1/Timer3 oscillator lines. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 16 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

These are: • An 8-bit control register (CCPxCON) • A 16-bit register (CCPRxH:CCPRxL) that operates as: - a 16-bit capture register - a 16-bit compare register - a 10-bit PWM master/slave duty cycle register Multiple CCP modules may exist on a single device. The CCP modules are identical in operation, with the exception of the operation of the special event trigger. Throughout this section, we use generic names for the CCP registers. These generic names are shown in Table 17-1. Table 17-1: Specific to Generic CCP Nomenclature 17.1.1 Timer Resources Table 17-2 shows the resources of the CCP modules, in each of its modes. Table 17-3 shows the interactions between the CCP modules, where CCPx is one CCP module and CCPy is another CCP module.

An event is defined as: • Every falling edge • Every rising edge • Every 4th rising edge • Every 16th rising edge An event is selected by control bits CCPxM3:CCPxM0 (CCPxCON<3:0>). When a capture is made, the interrupt request flag bit, CCPxIF, is set. The CCPxIF bit must be cleared in software. If another capture occurs before the value in register CCPRx is read, the old captured value will be lost. When the Capture mode is changed, a false capture interrupt may be generated. The user should keep bit CCPxIE clear to avoid false interrupts and should clear flag bit CCPxIF following any such change in operating mode. Figure 17-1 shows that a capture does not modify (clear) the 16-bit timer register. This is so the timer (Timer1 or Timer3) can also be used as the time-base for other operations. The time between two captures can easily be computed as the difference between the value of the 2nd capture and that of the 1st capture. When the timer overflows, the timer interrupt bit, TMRxIF will be set. If enabled, an interrupt will occur, allowing the time-base to be extended to greater than 16 bits. Note: The dedicated time base (Timer1 or Timer3) must be running in Timer mode or Synchronized Counter mode for the CCP module to use the capture feature. In Asynchronous Counter mode, the capture operation may not work. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 4 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39517A-page 17-5 Section 17. CCP CCP 17 17.3.1 CCP Pin Configuration In Capture mode, the CCPx pin should be configured as an input by setting its corresponding TRIS bit. The prescaler can be used to get a very fine average resolution on a constant input frequency. For example, if we have a stable input frequency and we set the prescaler to 1:16, then the total error for those 16 periods is 1 TCY. This gives an effective resolution of TCY/16, which at 40 MHz is 6.25 ns. This technique is only valid where the input frequency is “stable” over the 16 samples. Without using the prescaler (1:1), each sample would have a resolution of TCY.

The user should keep the CCPxIE bit clear to disable these interrupts and should clear the CCPxIF flag bit following any such change in operating mode. 17.3.2.1 CCP Prescaler There are four prescaler settings, specified by the CCPxM3:CCPxM0 bits. Whenever the CCP module is turned off, or the CCP module is not in capture mode, the prescaler counter is cleared. This means that any reset will clear the prescaler counter. Switching from one capture prescale setting to another may generate an interrupt. Also, the prescaler counter will not be cleared, therefore the first capture may be from a non-zero prescaler. Example 17-1 shows the recommended method for switching between capture prescale settings. This example uses CCP1 and clears the prescaler counter so not to generate an unintended interrupt. Example 17-1:Changing Between Capture Prescalers To clear the Capture prescaler count, the CCP module must be configured into any non-capture CCP mode (Compare, PWM, or CCP off modes). 17.3.3 Sleep Operation When the device is placed in SLEEP, the timer will not increment (since it is in synchronous mode), but the prescaler will continue to count events (not synchronized). When a specified capture event occurs, the CCPxIF bit will be set, but the capture register will not be updated. If the CCP interrupt is enabled, the device will wake-up from SLEEP. The value in the 16-bit TMR1 register is not transferred to the 16-bit capture register. Effectively, this allows the CCP pin to be used as another external interrupt. 17.3.4 Effects of a Reset The CCP module is off, and the value in the capture prescaler is cleared.

When a match occurs, the CCPx pin is: • Driven High • Driven Low • Toggle output (Low to High or High to Low) • Not affected (remains unchanged) and configured as I/O pin The action on the pin is based on the value of control bits CCPxM3:CCPxM0 (CCPxCON3:CCPxCON0). At the same time, interrupt flag bit CCPxIF is set.

Selecting the compare output mode, forces the state of the CCP pin to the state that is opposite of the match state. So if the Compare mode is selected to force the output pin low on match, then the output will be forced high until the match occurs (or the mode is changed). In the compare toggle mode, the CCPx pin output is initially forced to the low state. 17.4.2 Software Interrupt Mode When Generate Software Interrupt mode is chosen, the CCPx pin is not affected. Only a CCP interrupt is generated (if enabled). 17.4.3 Special Event Trigger In this mode, an internal hardware trigger is generated that may be used to initiate an action. The special event trigger output of CCPx resets the assigned timer register pair (TMR1 or TMR3 depending upon the state of the T3CCPx bits). This allows the CCPRxH:CCPRxL registers to effectively be a 16-bit programmable period register for the timer (Timer1 or Timer3). For some devices, the special trigger output of the CCP module resets the timer (TMR1 or TMR3) register pair (depending upon the state of the T3CCPx bits), and starts an A/D conversion (if the A/D module is enabled). 17.4.4 Sleep Operation When the device is placed in SLEEP, the timer will not increment (since it is in Synchronous mode), and the state of the module will not change. If the CCP pin is driving a value, it will continue to drive that value. When the device wakes-up, it will continue from this state. 17.4.5 Effects of a Reset The CCP module is off. Note: Clearing the CCPxCON register will force the CCPx compare output latch to the default low level. This is not the Port I/O data latch.

Since the CCPx pin is multiplexed with the PORT data latch, the corresponding TRIS bit must be cleared to make the CCPx pin an output. Figure 17-3 shows a simplified block diagram of one CCP module in PWM mode. Depending on the device there can be more than one CCP module connected to Timer2. Each CCP module can support one Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) output signal. This PWM signal can attain a resolution of up to 10-bits, from the 8-bit Timer2 module. Two extra bits are used to extend Timer2 to 10 bits (see Section 17.5.1). A PWM output waveform is shown in Figure 17-4. For a step-by-step procedure on how to set up the CCP module for PWM operation, see Section 17.5.4.

Figure 17-5 shows the block diagram of this 10-bit PWM Time base. When TSCLK is the clock source to the 10-bit counter, the counter increments on each Tsclk. If a prescaler is selected, the 10-bit counter increments every prescale would by TSCLK. Figure 17-5: 10-bit Time Base Block Diagram 17.5.2 PWM Period The PWM period is specified by writing to the PR2 register. The PWM period can be calculated using Equation 17-1. Equation 17-1:Calculation for PWM Period When TMR2 is equal to PR2, the following three events occur on the next increment cycle: • TMR2 is cleared • The CCPx pin is set (exception: if PWM duty cycle = 0%, the CCPx pin will not be set) • The PWM duty cycle is latched from CCPRxL into CCPRxH TMR2 TSCLK Note 1: These two bits are not readable or writable and are not mapped into the data memory.

The CCPRxL contains the eight MSbs and CCPxCON<5:4> contains the two LSbs. This 10-bit value is represented by DCxB9:DCxB0. Equation 17-2 is used to calculate the PWM duty cycle. Equation 17-2:Equation for calculating the PWM Duty Cycle The DCxB<9:0> bits can be written to at any time, but the duty cycle value is not latched into CCPRxH until after a match between PR2 and TMR2 occurs (which is the end of the current period). In PWM mode, CCPRxH is a read-only register. The CCPRxH register and a 2-bit internal latch are used to double buffer the PWM duty cycle. This double buffering is essential for glitchless PWM operation. When CCPRxH and a 2-bit latch match the value of TMR2 concatenated with the internal 2-bit Q clock (or two bits of the TMR2 prescaler), the CCPx pin is cleared. This is the end of the duty cycle. Equation 17-3 is used to calculate the maximum PWM resolution in bits for a given PWM frequency. Equation 17-3:Calculation for Maximum PWM Resolution 17.5.3.1 Minimum Resolution The minimum resolution (in time) of each bit of the PWM duty cycle depends on the prescaler of Timer2.

Furthermore example PWM frequencies based upon different oscillator frequencies are given. Example 17-2:PWM Period and Duty Cycle Calculation At most, an 8-bit resolution duty cycle can be obtained from a 78.125 kHz frequency and a 20 MHz oscillator (i.e., 0 ≤ DCxB9:DCxB0 ≤ 255). Any value greater than 255 will result in a 100% duty cycle. In order to achieve higher resolution, the PWM frequency must be decreased. In order to achieve higher PWM frequency, the resolution must be decreased. Table 17-6 lists example PWM frequencies and resolutions for FOSC = 20 MHz. Table 17-7 lists example PWM frequencies and resolutions for FOSC = 40 MHz. The TMR2 prescaler and PR2 values are also shown.

DS39517A-page 17-17 Section 17. CCP CCP 17 17.7 Design Tips Question 1: What timers can I use for the capture and compare modes? Answer 1: The capture and compare modes are designed around Timer1 and Timer3, so no other timer can be used for these functions. This also means that if multiple CCP modules are being used for a capture or compare function, they can share the same timer. Question 2: What timers can I use with the PWM mode? Answer 2: The PWM mode is designed around Timer2, so no other timer can be used for this function. It is the only timer with a period register associated with it. If multiple CCP modules are doing PWM, they will share the same timer and have the same PWM period and frequency. Question 3: Can I use one CCP module to do capture (or compare) AND PWM at the same time, since they use different timers as their reference? Answer 3: The timers may be different, but other logic functions are shared. However, you can switch from one mode to the other. For a device with 2 CCP modules, you can also have CCP1 set up for PWM and CCP2 set up for capture or compare (or vice versa) since they are two independent modules. Question 4: How does a reset affect the CCP module? Answer 4: Any reset will turn the CCP module off. See the “Reset” section to see reset values. Question 5: I am setting up the CCP1CON module for “Compare Mode, trigger special event” (1011) that resets TMR1. When a compare match occurs, will I have both the TMR1 and the CCP1 interrupts pending (TMR1IF is set, CCP1IF is set)? Answer 5: The CCP1IF flag will be set on the match condition. TMR1IF is set when Timer1 overflows, and the special trigger reset of Timer1 is not considered an overflow. However, if both the CCPR1L and CCPR1H registers are set at FFh, then an overflow occurs at the same time as the match, which will then set both CCP1IF and TMR1IF. Question 6: How do I use Timer2 as a general purpose timer, with an interrupt flag on rollover? Answer 6: Timer2 always resets to zero when it equals PR2 and flag bit TMR2IF always gets set at this time. By putting FFh into PR2, you will get an interrupt on overflow at FFh. Quite often it is desirable to have an event occur at a periodic rate, perhaps an interrupt driven event. Normally an initial value would be placed into the timer so that the overflow will occur at the desired time. This value would have to be placed back into the timer every time it overflowed to make the interrupts occur at the same desired rate. The benefit of Timer2 is that a value can be written to PR2 that will cause it to reset at your desired time interval. This means you do not have the housekeeping chore of reloading the timer every time it overflows, since PR2 maintains its value. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 17 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39517A-page 17-18  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. Question 7: I am using a CCP module in PWM mode. The duty cycle being outputted is almost always 100%, even when my program writes a value like 7Fh to the duty cycle register, which should be 50%. What am I doing wrong? Answer 7: 1. The value in CCPRxL is higher than PR2. This happens quite often when a user desires a fast PWM output frequency and writes a small value in the PR2. In this case, if a value of 7Eh were written to PR2, then a value 7Fh in CCPRxL will result in 100% duty cycle. 2. If the TRIS bit corresponding to the CCP output pin you are using is configured as an input, the PWM output cannot drive the pin. In this case, the pin would float and duty cycle may appear to be 0%, 100% or some other floating value. Question 8: I want to determine a signal frequency using the CCP module in capture mode to find the period. I am currently resetting Timer1 on the first edge, then using the value in the capture register on the second edge as the time period. The problem is that my code to clear the timer does not occur until almost twelve instructions after the first capture edge (interrupt latency plus saving of registers in interrupt), so I cannot measure very fast frequencies. Is there a better way to do this? Answer 8: You do not need to zero the counter to find the difference between two pulse edges. Just take the first captured value and put it into another set of registers. Then when the second capture event occurs, subtract the first event from the second. Assuming that your pulse edges are not so far apart that the counter can wrap around past the last capture value, the answer will always be correct. This is illustrated by the following example: 1. First captured value is FFFEh. Store this value in two registers. 2. The second capture value is 0001h (the counter has incremented three times). 3. 0001h - FFFEh = 0003, which is the same as if you had cleared Timer1 to zero and let it count to 3. (Theoretically, except that there was a delay getting to the code that clears Timer1, so actual values would differ). The interrupt overhead is now less important because the values are captured automatically. For even faster inputs, do not enable interrupts and just test the flag bit in a loop. If you must also capture very long time periods, such that the timer can wrap around past the previous capture value, then consider using an auto-scaling technique that starts with a large prescale, and shorten the prescale as you converge on the exact frequency. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 18 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

All four modes of SPI are supported, as well as Microwire™ (sample edge) when the SPI is in the master mode. To accomplish communication, typically three pins are used: • Serial Data Out (SDO) • Serial Data In (SDI) • Serial Clock (SCK) Additionally a fourth pin may be used when in a slave mode of operation: • Slave Select (SS) 19.3.1 Operation When initializing the SPI, several options need to be specified. This is done by programming the appropriate control bits in the SSPCON register (SSPCON<5:0>) and SSPSTAT<7:6>. These control bits allow the following to be specified: • Master Mode (SCK is the clock output) • Slave Mode (SCK is the clock input) • Clock Polarity (Idle state of SCK) • Clock edge (output data on rising/falling edge of SCK) • Data Input Sample Phase • Clock Rate (Master mode only) • Slave Select Mode (Slave mode only) Figure 19-1 shows the block diagram of the SSP module, when in SPI mode.

DS39519A-page 19-9 Section 19. SSP SSP 19 The SSP consists of a transmit/receive Shift Register (SSPSR) and a buffer register (SSPBUF). The SSPSR shifts the data in and out of the device, MSb first. The SSPBUF holds the data that was written to the SSPSR, until the received data is ready. Once the 8-bits of data have been received, that byte is moved to the SSPBUF register. Then the buffer full detect bit, BF (SSPSTAT<0>), and interrupt flag bit, SSPIF, are set. This double buffering of the received data (SSPBUF) allows the next byte to start reception before reading the data that was just received. Any write to the SSPBUF register during transmission/reception of data will be ignored, and the write collision detect bit, WCOL (SSPCON<7>), will be set. User software must clear the WCOL bit so that it can be determined if the following write(s) to the SSPBUF register completed successfully. When the application software is expecting to receive valid data, the SSPBUF should be read before the next byte of data to transfer is written to the SSPBUF. Buffer full bit, BF (SSPSTAT<0>), indicates when SSPBUF has been loaded with the received data (transmission is complete). When the SSPBUF is read, the BF bit is cleared. This data may be irrelevant if the SPI is only a transmitter. Generally the SSP Interrupt is used to determine when the transmission/reception has completed. The SSPBUF must be read and/or written. If the interrupt method is not going to be used, then software polling can be done to ensure that a write collision does not occur. Example 19-1 shows the loading of the SSPBUF (SSPSR) for data transmission. The shaded instruction is only required if the received data is meaningful (some SPI applications are transmit only). Example 19-1: Loading the SSPBUF (SSPSR) Register The SSPSR is not directly readable or writable, and can only be accessed from addressing the SSPBUF register. Additionally, the SSP status register (SSPSTAT) indicates the various status conditions. LOOP BTFSS SSPSTAT, BF ;Has data been received ; (transmit complete)?

To reset or reconfigure SPI mode, clear the SSPEN bit which re-initializes the SSPCON register, and then set the SSPEN bit. This configures the SDI, SDO, SCK, and SS pins as serial port pins. For the pins to behave as the serial port function, they must have their data direction bits (in the TRIS register) appropriately programmed. That is: • SDI must have the TRIS bit set • SDO must have the TRIS bit cleared • SCK (Master mode) must have the TRIS bit cleared • SCK (Slave mode) must have the TRIS bit set • SS must have the TRIS bit set Any serial port function that is not desired may be overridden by programming the corresponding data direction (TRIS) register to the opposite value. An example would be in master mode where you are only sending data (to a display driver), then both SDI and SS could be used as general purpose outputs by clearing their corresponding TRIS register bits. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 10 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39519A-page 19-11 Section 19. SSP SSP 19 19.3.3 Typical Connection Figure 19-2 shows a typical connection between two microcontrollers. The master controller (Processor 1) initiates the data transfer by sending the SCK signal. Data is shifted out of both shift registers on their programmed clock edge, and latched on the edge of the clock specified by the SMP bit. Both processors should be programmed to same Clock Polarity (CKP), so both controllers would send and receive data at the same time. Whether the data is meaningful (or dummy data) depends on the application software. This leads to three scenarios for data transmission: • Master sends data — Slave sends dummy data • Master sends data — Slave sends data • Master sends dummy data — Slave sends data Figure 19-2: SPI Master/Slave Connection Serial Input Buffer (SSPBUF) Shift Register (SSPSR) MSb LSb SDO SDI PROCESSOR 1 SCK SPI Master SSPM3:SSPM0 = 00xxb Serial Input Buffer (SSPBUF) Shift Register (SSPSR) MSb LSb SDI SDO PROCESSOR 2 SCK SPI Slave SSPM3:SSPM0 = 010xb Serial Clock 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39519A-page 19-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 19.3.4 Master Operation The master can initiate the data transfer at any time because it controls the SCK. The master determines when the slave (Processor 2) is to broadcast data by the software protocol. In master mode the data is transmitted/received as soon as the SSPBUF register is written to. If the SPI is only going to receive, the SDO output could be disabled (programmed as an input). The SSPSR register will continue to shift in the signal present on the SDI pin at the programmed clock rate. As each byte is received, it will be loaded into the SSPBUF register as if a normal received byte (interrupts and status bits appropriately set). This could be useful in receiver applications as a “line activity monitor” mode. The clock polarity is selected by appropriately programming bit CKP (SSPCON<4>). This would give waveforms for SPI communication as shown in Figure 19-3, Figure 19-4, and Figure 19-5 where the MSb is transmitted first. In master mode, the SPI clock rate (bit rate) is user programmable to be one of the following: • FOSC/4 (or TCY) • FOSC/16 (or 4 • TCY) • FOSC/64 (or 16 • TCY) • Timer2 output/2 This allows a maximum data rate of 5 Mbps (at 20 MHz).

When the last bit is latched, the interrupt flag bit SSPIF is set. The clock polarity is selected by appropriately programming bit CKP (SSPCON). This then would give waveforms for SPI communication as shown in Figure 19-3, Figure 19-4, and Figure 19-5 where the MSb is transmitted first. When in slave mode the external clock must meet the minimum high and low times. In sleep mode, the slave can transmit and receive data. When a byte is received, the device will wake-up from sleep, if the interrupt is enabled.

The SPI must be in slave mode (SSPCON<3:0> = 04h) and the TRIS bit, for the SS pin, must be set for the slave select mode to be enabled. When the SS pin is low, transmission and reception are enabled and the SDO pin is driven. When the SS pin goes high, the SDO pin is no longer driven, even if in the middle of a transmitted byte, and becomes a floating output. External pull-up/ pull-down resistors may be desirable, depending on the application. When the SPI is in Slave Mode with SS pin control enabled, (SSPCON<3:0> = 0100) the SPI module will reset if the SS pin is set to VDD. If the SPI is used in Slave Mode with the CKE bit is set, then the SS pin control must be enabled. When the SPI module resets, the bit counter is forced to 0. This can be done by either by forcing the SS pin to a high level or clearing the SSPEN bit (Figure 19-6). To emulate two-wire communication, the SDO pin can be connected to the SDI pin. When the SPI needs to operate as a receiver the SDO pin can be configured as an input. This disables transmissions from the SDO. The SDI can always be left as an input (SDI function) since it cannot create a bus conflict.

After the device returns to normal mode, the module will continue to transmit/receive data. In slave mode, the SPI transmit/receive shift register operates asynchronously to the device. This allows the device to be placed in sleep mode, and data to be shifted into the SPI transmit/receive shift register. When all 8-bits have been received, the SSP interrupt flag bit will be set and if enabled will wake the device from sleep. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 16 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The SSP module implements the standard mode specifications as well as 7-bit and 10-bit addressing. The "Appendix" section gives an overview of the I2C bus specification. Two pins are used for data transfer. These are the SCL pin, which is the clock, and the SDA pin, which is the data. The user must configure these pins as inputs through the TRIS bits. The SSP module functions are enabled by setting SSP Enable bit, SSPEN (SSPCON). A “glitch” filter is on the SCL and SDA pins when the pin is an input. This filter operates in both the 100 KHz and 400 KHz modes. In the 100 KHz mode, when these pins are an output, there is a slew rate control of the pin that is independent of device frequency.

DS39519A-page 19-19 Section 19. SSP SSP 19 The SSP module has five registers for I2C operation. They are: • SSP Control Register (SSPCON) • SSP Status Register (SSPSTAT) • Serial Receive/Transmit Buffer (SSPBUF) • SSP Shift Register (SSPSR) - Not directly accessible • SSP Address Register (SSPADD) The SSPCON register allows control of the I2C operation. Four mode selection bits (SSPCON<3:0>) allow one of the following I2C modes to be selected: • I2C Slave mode (7-bit address) • I2C Slave mode (10-bit address) • I2C Firmware controlled Multi-Master mode (start and stop bit interrupts enabled) • I2C Firmware controlled Multi-Master mode (start and stop bit interrupts enabled) • I2C Firmware controlled Master mode, slave is idle Before selecting any I2C mode, the SCL and SDA pins must be programmed to inputs by setting the appropriate TRIS bits. Selecting an I2C mode by setting the SSPEN bit enables the SCL and SDA pins to be used as the clock and data lines in I2C mode. The SSPSTAT register gives the status of the data transfer. This information includes detection of a START or STOP bit, specifies if the received byte was data or address, if the next byte is the completion of 10-bit address, and if this will be a read or write data transfer. The SSPBUF is the register to which transfer data is written to or read from. The SSPSR register shifts the data in or out of the device. In receive operations, the SSPBUF and SSPSR create a doubled buffered receiver. This allows reception of the next byte to begin before reading the last byte of received data. When the complete byte is received, it is transferred to the SSPBUF register and flag bit SSPIF is set. If another complete byte is received before the SSPBUF register is read, a receiver overflow has occurred and the SSPOV bit (SSPCON<6>) is set and the byte in the SSPSR is lost. The SSPADD register holds the slave address. In 10-bit mode, the user needs to write the high byte of the address (1111 0 A9 A8 0). Following the high byte address match, the low byte of the address needs to be loaded (A7:A0). 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 19 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39519A-page 19-20  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 19.4.1 Slave Mode In slave mode, the SCL and SDA pins must be configured as inputs (TRIS set). The SSP module will override the input state with the output data when required (slave-transmitter). When an address is matched or the data transfer after an address match is received, the hardware automatically will generate the acknowledge (ACK) pulse, and then load the SSPBUF register with the received value currently in the SSPSR register. There are certain conditions that will cause the SSP module not to give this ACK pulse. These are if either (or both): a) The buffer full bit, BF (SSPSTAT<0>), was set before the message completed. b) The overflow bit, SSPOV (SSPCON<6>), was set before the message completed. In this case, the SSPSR register value is not loaded into the SSPBUF, but the SSPIF and SSPOV bits are set. Table 19-2 shows what happens when a data transfer byte is received, given the status of bits BF and SSPOV. The shaded cells show the condition where user software did not properly clear the overflow condition. The BF flag bit is cleared by reading the SSPBUF register while bit SSPOV is cleared through software. The SCL clock input must have a minimum high and low time for proper operation. The high and low times of the I2C specification as well as the requirement of the SSP module is shown in the Device Data Sheet electrical specifications parameters 100 and 101. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 20 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39519A-page 19-21 Section 19. SSP SSP 19 19.4.1.1 Addressing Once the SSP module has been enabled, it waits for a START condition to occur. Following the START condition, the 8-bits are shifted into the SSPSR register. All incoming bits are sampled with the rising edge of the clock (SCL) line. The value of register SSPSR<7:1> is compared to the value of the SSPADD register. The address is compared on the falling edge of the eighth clock (SCL) pulse. If the addresses match, and the BF and SSPOV bits are clear, the following events occur: a) The SSPSR register value is loaded into the SSPBUF register on the falling edge of the eighth SCL pulse. b) The buffer full bit, BF, is set on the falling edge of the eighth SCL pulse. c) An ACK pulse is generated. d) The SSP interrupt flag bit, SSPIF, is set (and an interrupt is generated if enabled) - on the falling edge of the ninth SCL pulse. In 10-bit address mode, two address bytes need to be received by the slave. The five Most Significant bits (MSbs) of the first address byte specify if this is a 10-bit address. The R/W bit (SSPSTAT) must specify a write so the slave device will receive the second address byte. For a 10-bit address the first byte would equal ‘1111 0 A9 A8 0’, where A9 and A8 are the two MSbs of the address. The sequence of events for a 10-bit address is as follows, with steps 7- 9 for slave-transmitter: 1. Receive first (high) byte of Address (the SSPIF, BF, and UA (SSPSTAT) bits are set). 2. Update the SSPADD register with second (low) byte of Address (clears the UA bit and releases the SCL line). 3. Read the SSPBUF register (clears the BF bit) and clear the SSPIF flag bit. 4. Receive second (low) byte of Address (the SSPIF, BF, and UA bits are set). 5. Update the SSPADD register with the high byte of Address. This will clear the UA bit and releases SCL line. 6. Read the SSPBUF register (clears the BF bit) and clear the SSPIF flag bit. 7. Receive repeated START condition. 8. Receive first (high) byte of Address (the SSPIF and BF bits are set). 9. Read the SSPBUF register (clears the BF bit) and clear the SSPIF flag bit. Table 19-2: Data Transfer Received Byte Actions Note: Following the RESTART condition (step 7) in 10-bit mode, the user only needs to match the first 7-bit address. The user does not update the SSPADD for the second half of the address.

The received address is loaded into the SSPBUF register. When the address byte overflow condition exists, then no acknowledge (ACK) pulse is given. An overflow condition is defined as either the BF bit (SSPSTAT) is set or the SSPOV bit (SSPCON) is set. When a byte is received with these conditions, and attempts to move from the SSPSR register to the SSPBUF register, no acknowledge pulse is given. An SSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer byte. The SSPIF flag bit must be cleared in software. The SSPSTAT register is used to determine the status of the receive byte.

The received address is loaded into the SSPBUF register. The ACK pulse will be sent on the ninth bit, and the SCL pin is held low. The transmit data must be loaded into the SSPBUF register, which also loads the SSPSR register. Then the SCL pin should be enabled by setting the CKP bit (SSPCON<4>). The master must monitor the SCL pin prior to asserting another clock pulse. The slave devices may be holding off the master by stretching the clock. The eight data bits are shifted out on the falling edge of the SCL input. This ensures that the SDA signal is valid during the SCL high time (Figure 19-10). An SSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer byte. The SSPIF flag bit must be cleared in software, and the SSPSTAT register is used to determine the status of the byte transfer. The SSPIF flag bit is set on the falling edge of the ninth clock pulse. As a slave-transmitter, the ACK pulse from the master-receiver is latched on the rising edge of the ninth SCL input pulse. If the SDA line was high (not ACK), then the data transfer is complete. When the not ACK is latched by the slave, the slave logic is reset and the slave then monitors for another occurrence of the START bit. If the SDA line was low (ACK), the transmit data must be loaded into the SSPBUF register, which also loads the SSPSR register. Then the SCL pin should be enabled by setting the CKP bit.

The SSP module in I2C slave mode will hold the SCL pin low when the CPU needs to respond to the SSP interrupt (SSPIF bit is set and the CKP bit is cleared). The data that needs to be transmitted will need to be written to the SSPBUF register, and then the CKP bit will need to be set to allow the master to generate the required clocks. 19.4.2 Master Mode (Firmware) Master mode of operation is supported by interrupt generation on the detection of the START and STOP conditions. The STOP (P) and START (S) bits are cleared from a reset or when the SSP module is disabled. Control of the I2C bus may be taken when the P bit is set, or the bus is idle with both the S and P bits clear. In master mode the SCL and SDA lines are manipulated by clearing the corresponding TRIS bit(s). The output level is always low, irrespective of the value(s) in the PORT register. So when transmitting data, a '1' data bit must have it’s TRIS bit set (input) and a '0' data bit must have it’s TRIS bit cleared (output). The same scenario is true for the SCL line with the TRIS bit. The following events will cause SSP Interrupt Flag bit, SSPIF, to be set (SSP Interrupt if enabled): • START condition • STOP condition • Data transfer byte transmitted/received Master mode of operation can be done with either the slave mode idle (SSPM3:SSPM0 = 1011) or with the slave active (SSPM3:SSP0 = 1110 or 1111). When the slave modes are enabled, the software needs to differentiate the source(s) of the interrupt. 19.4.3 Multi-Master Mode (Firmware) In multi-Master mode, the interrupt generation on the detection of the START and STOP conditions allows the determination of when the bus is free. The STOP (P) and START (S) bits are cleared from a reset or when the SSP module is disabled. Control of the I2C bus may be taken when the P bit (SSPSTAT<4>) is set, or the bus is idle with both the S and P bits clear. When the bus is busy, enabling the SSP Interrupt will generate the interrupt when the STOP condition occurs. In Multi-Master operation, the SDA line must be monitored to see if the signal level is the expected output level. This check only needs to be done when a high level is output. If a high level is expected and a low level is present, the device needs to release the SDA and SCL lines (set the TRIS bits). There are two stages where this arbitration can be lost, they are: • Address transfer • Data transfer When the slave logic is enabled, the slave continues to receive. If arbitration was lost during the address transfer stage, communication to the device may be in progress. If addressed an ACK pulse will be generated. If arbitration was lost during the data transfer stage, the device will need to retransfer the data at a later time. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 26 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Answer 1: Ensure that you are using the correct SPI mode for that device. This SPI supports all four SPI modes so you should be able to get it to function. Check the clock polarity and the clock phase. These settings should match what the SPI is interfacing to. Question 2: Using I2C mode, I do not seem able to make the master mode work. Answer 2: This SSP module does not have master mode fully automated in hardware, see Application Note AN578 for software which uses the SSP module to implement master mode. If you require a fully automated hardware implementation of I2C Master Mode, please refer to the Microchip Line Card for devices that have the Master SSP module. Question 3: Using I2C mode, I write data to the SSPBUF register, but the data did not transmit. Answer 3: Ensure that you set the CKP bit to release the I2C clock. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 30 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

All four modes of SPI are supported. To accomplish communication, typically three pins are used: • Serial Data Out (SDO) • Serial Data In (SDI) • Serial Clock (SCK) Additionally a fourth pin may be used when in a Slave Mode of operation: • Slave Select (SS) 20.3.1 Operation When initializing the SPI, several options need to be specified. This is done by programming the appropriate control bits (SSPCON1<5:0>) and SSPSTAT<7:6>. These control bits allow the following to be specified: • Master Mode (SCK is the clock output) • Slave Mode (SCK is the clock input) • Clock Polarity (Idle state of SCK) • Data input sample phase (middle or end of data output time) • Clock edge (output data on rising/falling edge of SCK) • Clock Rate (Master Mode only) • Slave Select Mode (Slave Mode only) Figure 20-4 shows the block diagram of the MSSP module, when in SPI mode.

The MSSP consists of a transmit/receive Shift Register (SSPSR) and a Buffer Register (SSPBUF). The SSPSR shifts the data in and out of the device, MSb first. The SSPBUF holds the data that was written to the SSPSR, until the received data is ready. Once the 8 bits of data have been received, that byte is moved to the SSPBUF Register. Then the buffer full detect bit, BF (SSPSTAT register), and the interrupt flag bit, SSPIF, are set. This double buffering of the received data (SSPBUF) allows the next byte to start reception before reading the data that was just received. Any write to the SSPBUF Register during transmission/reception of data will be ignored, and the write collision detect bit, WCOL (SSPCON1 register), will be set. User software must clear the WCOL bit so that it can be determined if the following write(s) to the SSPBUF Register completed successfully. When the application software is expecting to receive valid data, the SSPBUF should be read before the next byte of data to transfer is written to the SSPBUF. Buffer full bit, BF (SSPSTAT register), indicates when SSPBUF has been loaded with the received data (transmission is complete). When the SSPBUF is read, the BF bit is cleared. This data may be irrelevant if the SPI is only a transmitter. Generally the MSSP Interrupt is used to determine when the transmission/reception has completed. The SSPBUF must be read and/or written. If the interrupt method is not going to be used, then software polling can be done to ensure that a write collision does not occur. Example 20-1 shows the loading of the SSPBUF (SSPSR) for data transmission.

To reset or reconfigure SPI mode, clear the SSPEN bit, re-initialize the SSPCON Registers, and then set the SSPEN bit. This configures the SDI, SDO, SCK, and SS pins as serial port pins. For the pins to behave as the serial port function, some must have their data direction bits (in the TRIS Register) appropriately programmed. That is: • SDI is automatically controlled by the SPI module • SDO must have the TRIS bit cleared • SCK (Master Mode) must have the TRIS bit cleared • SCK (Slave Mode) must have the TRIS bit set • SS must have the TRIS bit set Any serial port function that is not desired may be overridden by programming the corresponding data direction (TRIS) Register to the opposite value. 20.3.3 Typical Connection Figure 20-5 shows a typical connection between two microcontrollers. The master controller (Processor 1) initiates the data transfer by sending the SCK signal. Data is shifted out of both Shift Registers on their programmed clock edge, and latched on the opposite edge of the clock. Both processors should be programmed to same Clock Polarity (CKP), then both controllers would send and receive data at the same time. Whether the data is meaningful (or dummy data) depends on the application software. This leads to three scenarios for data transmission: • Master sends data — Slave sends dummy data • Master sends data — Slave sends data • Master sends dummy data — Slave sends data Figure 20-5:SPI Master/Slave Connection Serial Input Buffer (SSPBUF) Shift Register (SSPSR) MSb LSb SDO SDI PROCESSOR 1 SCK SPI Master SSPM3:SSPM0 = 00xxb Serial Input Buffer (SSPBUF) Shift Register (SSPSR) MSb LSb SDI SDO PROCESSOR 2 SCK SPI Slave SSPM3:SSPM0 = 010xb Serial Clock 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39520A-page 20-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 20.3.4 SPI Master Mode The master can initiate the data transfer at any time because it controls the SCK. The master determines when the slave (Processor 2, Figure 20-5) is to broadcast data by the software protocol. In Master Mode, the data is transmitted/received as soon as the SSPBUF Register is written to. If the SPI is only going to receive, the SDO output could be disabled (programmed as an input). The SSPSR Register will continue to shift in the signal present on the SDI pin at the programmed clock rate. As each byte is received, it will be loaded into the SSPBUF Register (interrupts and status bits appropriately set). This could be useful in receiver applications as a “line activity monitor” mode. The clock polarity is selected by appropriately programming the CKP bit. This gives waveforms for SPI communication as shown in Figure 20-6, Figure 20-8, and Figure 20-9 where the Msb is transmitted first. In Master Mode, the SPI clock rate (bit rate) is user programmable to be one of the following: • FOSC/4 (or TCY) • FOSC/16 (or 4 • TCY) • FOSC/64 (or 16 • TCY) • Timer2 output/2 This allows a maximum data rate (at 40 MHz) of 10.00 Mbps. Figure 20-6 shows the waveforms for Master Mode. When the CKE bit is set, the SDO data is valid before there is a clock edge on SCK. The change of the input sample is shown based on the state of the SMP bit. The time when the SSPBUF is loaded with the received data is shown.

DS39520A-page 20-13 Section 20. Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.3.5 SPI Slave Mode In Slave Mode, the data is transmitted and received as the external clock pulses appear on SCK. When the last bit is latched, the SSPIF interrupt flag bit is set. While in Slave Mode, the external clock is supplied by the external clock source on the SCK pin. This external clock must meet the minimum high and low times as specified in the electrical specifications. While in sleep mode, the slave can transmit/receive data. When a byte is received, the device will wake-up from sleep. 20.3.6 Slave Select Synchronization The SS pin is a Slave Select pin, and functions similar to a chip select pin. The SPI must be in Slave Mode with SS pin control enabled (SSPCON1<3:0> = 04h). The pin must be configured as an input by setting the corresponding TRIS bit. When the SS pin is low, transmission and reception are enabled and the SDO pin is driven. When the SS pin goes high, the SDO pin is no longer driven, even if in the middle of a transmitted byte, and becomes a floating output. External pull-up/ pull-down resistors may be desirable, depending on the application. If the TRIS bit is cleared, making the pin an output, and the pin outputs a high , the SPI receive logic (slave mode) will be in reset. It will remain in reset until either the pin outputs a low, or the pin’s TRIS bit is set and external circuits pull the pin low. When the SPI module resets, the bit counter is forced to 0. This can be done by either by forcing the SS pin to a high level or clearing the SSPEN bit. To emulate two-wire communication, the SDO pin can be connected to the SDI pin. When the SPI needs to operate as a receiver, the SDO pin can be configured as an input. This disables transmissions from the SDO. The SDI can always be left as an input (SDI function) since it cannot create a bus conflict. Note 1: When the SPI is in Slave Mode with SS pin control enabled, (SSPCON<3:0> = 0100) the SPI module will reset if the SS pin is set to VDD. Note 2: If the SPI is used in Slave Mode with CKE set, then the SS pin control must be enabled. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 13 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39520A-page 20-14  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The transmission/reception that is in progress will remain in the current state until the device wakes from sleep. After the device returns to normal mode, the module will continue to transmit/receive data. In Slave Mode, the SPI transmit/receive Shift Register operates asynchronously to the device. This allows the device to be placed in sleep mode, and data to be shifted into the SPI transmit/receive Shift Register. When all 8 bits have been received, the MSSP interrupt flag bit will be set. If the SSPIF is enabled, it will wake the device from sleep. 20.3.8 Effects of a Reset A reset disables the MSSP module and terminates the current transfer. 20.3.9 Bus Mode Compatibility Table 20-1 shows the compatibility between the standard SPI modes and the states of the CKP and CKE control bits.

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4 MSSP I2C Operation The MSSP module in I2C mode fully implements all master and slave functions (including general call support) and provides interrupts on Start and Stop bits in hardware to determine a free bus (multi-master function). The MSSP module implements the standard mode specifications as well as 7-bit and 10-bit addressing. Appendix A gives an overview of the I2C bus specification. A "glitch" filter is on the SCL and SDA pins when the pin is an input. This filter operates in both the 100 kHz and 400 kHz modes. In the 100 kHz mode, when these pins are an output, there is a slew rate control of the pin that is independent of device frequency.

Two pins are used for data transfer. These are the SCL pin, which is the clock, and the SDA pin, which is the data. The SDA and SCL pins must be configured as inputs in the corresponding TRIS registers when the I2C mode is enabled. The MSSP module functions are enabled by setting the MSSP Enable bit, SSPEN (SSPCON register).The MSSP module has six registers for I 2C operation. They are the: • MSSP Control Register1 (SSPCON1) • MSSP Control Register2 (SSPCON2) • MSSP Status Register (SSPSTAT) • Serial Receive/Transmit Buffer (SSPBUF) • MSSP Shift Register (SSPSR) - Not directly accessible • MSSP Address Register (SSPADD) The SSPCON1 Register allows control of the I2C operation. Four mode selection bits (SSPCON1<3:0>) allow one of the following I2C modes to be selected: • I2C Slave Mode (7-bit address) • I2C Slave Mode (10-bit address) • I2C Master Mode, clock = OSC/4 (SSPADD +1) • I2C Slave Mode (7-bit address), with Start and Stop bit interrupts enabled • I2C Slave Mode (10-bit address), with Start and Stop bit interrupts enabled • I2C Firmware controlled master operation, slave is idle Before selecting any I2C mode, the SCL and SDA pins must be programmed to inputs by setting the appropriate TRIS bits. Selecting an I2C mode, by setting the SSPEN bit, enables the SCL and SDA pins to be used as the clock and data lines in I2C mode. The SSPSTAT Register gives the status of the data transfer. This information includes detection of a Start or Stop bit, specifies if the received byte was data or address, if the next byte is the completion of 10-bit address, and if this will be a read or write data transfer. The SSPBUF is the register to which transfer data is written to or read from. The SSPSR Register shifts the data in or out of the device. In receive operations, the SSPBUF and SSPSR create a double buffered receiver. This allows reception of the next byte to begin before reading the current byte of received data. When the complete byte is received, it is transferred to the SSPBUF Register and the SSPIF bit is set. If another complete byte is received before the SSPBUF Register is read, a receiver overflow has occurred and the SSPOV bit (SSPCON1 register) is set and the byte in the SSPSR is lost. The SSPADD Register holds the slave address. In 10-bit mode, the user needs to write the high byte of the address (1111 0 A9 A8 0). Following the high byte address match, the low byte of the address needs to be loaded (A7:A0). 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 18 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39520A-page 20-19 Section 20. Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.1 Slave Mode In Slave Mode, the SCL and SDA pins must be configured as inputs. The MSSP module will override the input state with the output data when required (slave-transmitter). When an address is matched or the data transfer after an address match is received, the hardware automatically generates the acknowledge (ACK) pulse, and loads the SSPBUF Register with the received value currently in the SSPSR Register. There are certain conditions that will cause the MSSP module not to give this ACK pulse. These are if either (or both): a) The buffer full bit, BF (SSPSTAT register), was set before the transfer was received. b) The overflow bit, SSPOV (SSPCON1 register), was set before the transfer was received. If the BF bit is set, the SSPSR Register value is not loaded into the SSPBUF, but the SSPIF and SSPOV bits are set. Table 20-3 shows what happens when a data transfer byte is received, given the status of the BF and SSPOV bits. The shaded cells show the condition where user software did not properly clear the overflow condition. The BF bit is cleared by reading the SSPBUF register while bit SSPOV is cleared through software. The SCL clock input must have a minimum high and low time for proper operation. The high and low times of the I2C specification as well as the requirement of the MSSP module is shown in timing parameters 100 and 101 of the “Electrical Specifications” section. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 19 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39520A-page 20-20  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 20.4.1.1 Addressing Once the MSSP module has been enabled, it waits for a Start condition to occur. Following the Start condition, the 8 bits are shifted into the SSPSR Register. All incoming bits are sampled with the rising edge of the clock (SCL) line. The value of register SSPSR<7:1> is compared to the value of the SSPADD Register (bits 7:1). The address is compared on the falling edge of the eighth clock (SCL) pulse. If the addresses match, and the BF and SSPOV bits are clear, the following events occur: a) The SSPSR Register value is loaded into the SSPBUF Register on the falling edge of the eighth SCL pulse. b) The buffer full bit, BF, is set on the falling edge of the eighth SCL pulse. c) An ACK pulse is generated. d) MSSP interrupt flag bit, SSPIF, is set (interrupt is generated if enabled) - on the falling edge of the ninth SCL pulse. In 10-bit address mode, two address bytes need to be received by the slave. The five Most Significant bits (MSbs) of the first address byte specify if this is a 10-bit address. The R/W bit (SSPSTAT<2>) must specify a write so the slave device will receive the second address byte. For a 10-bit address the first byte would equal ‘1111 0 A9 A8 0’, where A9 and A8 are the two MSbs of the address. The sequence of events for a 10-bit address is as follows (with steps 7- 9 for a slave-transmitter): 1. Receive first (high) byte of the address (the SSPIF, BF, and UA (SSPSTAT register) bits are set). 2. Update the SSPADD Register with second (low) byte of the address (clears the UA bit and releases the SCL line). 3. Read the SSPBUF Register (clears the BF bit) and clear flag bit SSPIF. 4. Receive second (low) byte of the address (the SSPIF, BF, and UA bits are set). 5. Update the SSPADD Register with the first (high) byte of the address. This will clear the UA bit and release the SCL line. 6. Read the SSPBUF Register (clears the BF bit) and clear the SSPIF flag bit. 7. Receive repeated Start condition. 8. Receive first (high) byte of the address (the SSPIF and BF bits are set). 9. Read the SSPBUF Register (clears the BF bit) and clear the SSPIF flag bit. Table 20-3: Data Transfer Received Byte Actions Note: Following the Repeated Start condition (step 7) in 10-bit mode, the user only needs to match the first 7-bit address. The user does not update the SSPADD for the second half of the address.

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.1.2 Slave Reception When the R/W bit of the address byte is clear and an address match occurs, the R/W bit of the SSPSTAT Register is cleared. The received address is loaded into the SSPBUF Register. When the address byte overflow condition exists, then no acknowledge (ACK) pulse is given. An overflow condition is defined as either the BF bit (SSPSTAT register) is set or the SSPOV bit (SSPCON1 register) is set. An MSSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer byte. The SSPIF flag bit must be cleared in software. The SSPSTAT Register is used to determine the status of the received byte. Note: The SSPBUF will be loaded if the SSPOV bit is set and the BF flag bit is cleared. If a read of the SSPBUF was performed, but the user did not clear the state of the SSPOV bit before the next receive occurred. The ACK is not sent and the SSPBUF is updated. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 21 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39520A-page 20-22  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 20.4.1.3 Slave Transmission When the R/W bit of the incoming address byte is set and an address match occurs, the R/W bit of the SSPSTAT Register is set. The received address is loaded into the SSPBUF Register. The ACK pulse will be sent on the ninth bit, and the SCL pin is held low. The transmit data must be loaded into the SSPBUF Register, which also loads the SSPSR Register and sets the BF bit. Then the SCL pin should be enabled by setting the CKP bit (SSPCON1 register). The master should monitor the SCL pin prior to asserting another clock pulse. The slave devices may be holding off the master by stretching the clock. The eight data bits are shifted out on the falling edge of the SCL input. This ensures that the SDA signal is valid during the SCL high time (Figure 20-13). When all eight bits have been shifted out, the BF bit will be cleared. An MSSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer byte. The SSPIF flag bit must be cleared in software, and the SSPSTAT Register is used to determine the status of the byte transfer. The SSPIF flag bit is set on the falling edge of the ninth clock pulse. As a slave-transmitter, the ACK pulse from the master-receiver is latched on the rising edge of the ninth SCL input pulse. If the SDA line was high (not ACK), then the data transfer is complete. When the not ACK is latched by the slave, the slave logic is reset and the slave then monitors for another occurrence of the Start bit. If the SDA line was low (ACK), the transmit data must be loaded into the SSPBUF Register, which also loads the SSPSR Register and sets the BF bit. Then the SCL pin should be enabled by setting the CKP bit.

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.2 General Call Address Support The addressing procedure for the I2C bus is such that the first byte after the Start condition usually determines which device will be the slave addressed by the master. The exception is the general call address, which can address all devices. When this address is used, all devices should respond with an acknowledge. The general call address is one of eight addresses reserved for specific purposes by the I2C protocol. It consists of all 0’s with R/W = 0. The general call address is recognized when the General Call Enable bit (GCEN) is set. Following a Start bit detect, 8 bits are shifted into the SSPSR and the address is compared against the SSPADD, and is also compared to the general call address, fixed in hardware. If the general call address matches, the SSPSR is transferred to the SSPBUF, the BF flag bit is set (during the eighth bit), and on the falling edge of the ninth bit (the ACK bit) the SSPIF interrupt flag bit is set. When the interrupt is serviced. The source for the interrupt can be checked by reading the contents of the SSPBUF to determine if the address was device specific or a general call address. In 10-bit address mode, SSPADD must be updated for the second half of the address to match and the UA bit to be set. If the general call address is sampled when the GCEN bit is set, then the second half of the address is not necessary. The UA bit will not be set, and the slave (configured in 10-bit address mode) will begin receiving data after the acknowledge (Figure 20-16).

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.5 Master Mode Master Mode of operation is supported by interrupt generation on the detection of the Start and Stop conditions. The Stop (P) and Start (S) bits are cleared when a reset occurs or when the MSSP module is disabled. Control of the I2C bus may be taken when the P bit is set, or the bus is idle with both the S and P bits clear. In Master Mode, the SCL and SDA lines are manipulated by the MSSP hardware. The following events will cause SSP Interrupt Flag bit, SSPIF, to be set (SSP Interrupt if enabled): • Start condition • Stop condition • Data transfer byte transmitted/received • Acknowledge Transmit • Repeated Start Figure 20-17: MSSP Block Diagram (I 2C Master Mode) Read Write SSPSR Start Bit, Stop Bit, Start Bit Detect SSPBUF Internal Data Bus Set/Reset, S, P, WCOL (SSPSTAT) Shift Clock MSb LSb SDA Acknowledge Generate Stop Bit Detect Write Collision Detect Clock Arbitration State Counter for End of XMIT/RCV SCL SCL In Bus Collision SDA In Receive Enable Clock Cntl Clock Arbitrate/WCOLDetect (Hold Off Clock Source) SSPADD<6:0> Baud Set SSPIF, BCLIF Reset ACKSTAT, PEN (SSPCON2) Rate Generator SSPM3:SSPM0 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 27 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39520A-page 20-28  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 20.4.6 Multi-Master Mode In Multi-Master Mode, the interrupt generation on the detection of the Start and Stop conditions allows the determination of when the bus is free. The Stop (P) and Start (S) bits are cleared from a reset or when the MSSP module is disabled. Control of the I2C bus may be taken when the P bit (SSPSTAT register) is set, or the bus is idle with both the S and P bits clear. When the bus is busy, enabling the MSSP Interrupt will generate the interrupt when the Stop condition occurs. In multi-master operation, the SDA line must be monitored, for arbitration, to see if the signal level is the expected output level. This check is performed in hardware, with the result placed in the BCLIF bit. The states where arbitration can be lost are: • Address transfer • Data transfer • A Start condition • A Repeated Start condition • An Acknowledge condition 20.4.7 I2C Master Mode Support Master Mode is enabled by setting and clearing the appropriate SSPM bits in SSPCON1 and by setting the SSPEN bit. Once Master Mode is enabled, the user has six options. 1. Assert a Start condition on SDA and SCL. 2. Assert a Repeated Start condition on SDA and SCL. 3. Write to the SSPBUF Register initiating transmission of data/address. 4. Generate a Stop condition on SDA and SCL. 5. Configure the I2C port to receive data. 6. Generate an acknowledge condition at the end of a received byte of data. Note: The MSSP Module when configured in I2C Master Mode does not allow queueing of events. For instance: The user is not allowed to initiate a Start condition, and immediately write the SSPBUF Register to imitate transmission before the Start condition is complete. In this case the SSPBUF will not be written to, and the WCOL bit will be set, indicating that this write to the SSPBUF did not occur. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 28 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39520A-page 20-29 Section 20. Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.7.1 I2 C Master Mode Operation The master device generates all of the serial clock pulses and the Start and Stop conditions. A transfer is ended with a Stop condition or with a Repeated Start condition. Since the Repeated Start condition is also the beginning of the next serial transfer, the I2C bus will not be released. In master transmitter mode, serial data is output through SDA, while SCL outputs the serial clock. The first byte transmitted contains the slave address of the receiving device (7 bits), and the Read/Write (R/W) bit. In this case, the R/W bit will be logic '0'. Serial data is transmitted 8 bits at a time. After each byte is transmitted, an Acknowledge bit is received. Start and Stop conditions are output to indicate the beginning and the end of a serial transfer. In master receive mode, the first byte transmitted contains the slave address of the transmitting device (7 bits), and the R/W bit. In this case, the R/W bit will be logic '1'. Thus, the first byte transmitted is a 7-bit slave address followed by a '1' to indicate receive bit. Serial data is received via the SDA pin, while the SCL pin outputs the serial clock. Serial data is received 8 bits at a time. After each byte is received, an Acknowledge bit is transmitted. Start and Stop conditions indicate the beginning and end of transmission. The baud rate generator used for SPI mode operation is now used to set the SCL clock frequency for either 100 kHz, 400 kHz, or 1 MHz I2C operation. The baud rate generator reload value is contained in the lower 7 bits of the SSPADD Register. The baud rate generator will automatically begin counting on a write to the SSPBUF. Once the given operation is complete (i.e., transmission of the last data bit is followed by ACK), the internal clock will automatically stop counting and the SCL pin will remain in its last state. A typical transmit sequence would go as follows: a) The user generates a Start condition by setting the Start enable bit, SEN (SSPCON2 register). b) SSPIF is set. The MSSP module will wait the required start time before any other operation takes place. c) The user loads the SSPBUF with the address to transmit. d) Address is shifted out the SDA pin until all 8 bits are transmitted. e) The MSSP module shifts in the ACK bit from the slave device, and writes its value into the SSPCON2 Register (SSPCON2 register). f) The MSSP module generates an interrupt at the end of the ninth clock cycle by setting the SSPIF bit. g) The user loads the SSPBUF with eight bits of data. h) DATA is shifted out the SDA pin until all 8 bits are transmitted. i) The MSSP module shifts in the ACK bit from the slave device, and writes its value into the SSPCON2 Register (SSPCON2 register). j) The MSSP module generates an interrupt at the end of the ninth clock cycle by setting the SSPIF bit. k) The user generates a Stop condition by setting the Stop enable bit, PEN (SSPCON2 register). l) Interrupt is generated once the Stop condition is complete. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 29 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39520A-page 20-30  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 20.4.8 Baud Rate Generator In I2C Master Mode, the reload value for the BRG is located in the lower 7 bits of the SSPADD Register (Figure 20-18). When the BRG is loaded with this value, the BRG counts down to 0 and stops until another reload has taken place. The BRG count is decremented twice per instruction cycle (TCY) on the Q2 and Q4 clocks. In I2C Master Mode, the BRG is reloaded automatically. If clock arbitration is taking place for instance, the BRG will be reloaded when the SCL pin is sampled high (Figure 20-19).

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.9 I2C Master Mode Start Condition Timing To initiate a Start condition, the user sets the Start condition enable bit, SEN (SSPCON2 register). If the SDA and SCL pins are sampled high, the baud rate generator is re-loaded with the contents of SSPADD<6:0>, and starts its count. If the SCL and SDA pins are both sampled high when the baud rate generator times out (TBRG), the SDA pin is driven low. The action of the SDA pin being driven low while the SCL pin is high in the Start condition, and causes the S bit (SSPSTAT register) to be set. Following this, the baud rate generator is reloaded with the contents of SSPADD<6:0> and resumes its count. When the baud rate generator times out (TBRG) the SEN bit (SSPCON2 register) will be automatically cleared by hardware, the baud rate generator is suspended leaving the SDA line held low, and the Start condition is complete. 20.4.9.1 WCOL Status Flag If the user writes the SSPBUF when an Start sequence is in progress, then WCOL is set and the contents of the buffer are unchanged (the write doesn’t occur). Figure 20-20: First Start Bit Timing Note: If at the beginning of Start condition, the SDA and SCL pins are already sampled low, or if during the Start condition the SCL pin is sampled low before the SDA pin is driven low, a bus collision occurs. The Bus Collision Interrupt Flag, BCLIF, is set, the Start condition is aborted, and the I2C module is reset into its idle state. Note: Because queueing of events is not allowed, writing to the lower 5 bits of SSPCON2 is disabled until the Start condition is complete.

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.10 I2C Master Mode Repeated Start Condition Timing A Repeated Start condition occurs when the RSEN bit (SSPCON2 register) is programmed high and the I2C logic module is in the idle state. When the RSEN bit is set, the SCL pin is asserted low. When the SCL pin is sampled low, the baud rate generator is loaded with the contents of SSPADD<5:0>, and begins counting. The SDA pin is released (brought high) for one baud rate generator count (TBRG). When the baud rate generator times out, if SDA is sampled high, the SCL pin will be de-asserted (brought high). When the SCL pin is sampled high, the baud rate generator is re-loaded with the contents of SSPADD<6:0> and begins counting. SDA and SCL must be sampled high for one TBRG. This action is then followed by assertion of the SDA pin (SDA = 0) for one TBRG while SCL is high. Following this, the RSEN bit (SSPCON2 register) will be automatically cleared and the baud rate generator is not reloaded, leaving the SDA pin held low. As soon as a Start condition is detected on the SDA and SCL pins, the S bit (SSPSTAT register) will be set. The SSPIF bit will not be set until the baud rate generator has timed-out. Immediately following the SSPIF bit getting set, the user may write the SSPBUF with the 7-bit address in 7-bit mode, or the default first address in 10-bit mode. After the first eight bits are transmitted and an ACK is received, the user may then transmit an additional eight bits of address (10-bit mode) or eight bits of data (7-bit mode). Note 1: If RSEN is programmed while any other event is in progress, it will not take effect. Note 2: A bus collision during the Repeated Start condition occurs if: • SDA is sampled low when SCL goes from low to high. • SCL goes low before SDA is asserted low. This may indicate that another master is attempting to transmit a data "1". 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 33 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39520A-page 20-34  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 20.4.10.1 WCOL Status Flag If the user writes the SSPBUF when a Repeated Start sequence is in progress, then WCOL is set and the contents of the buffer are unchanged (the write doesn’t occur).

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.11 I2C Master Mode Transmission Transmission of a data byte, a 7-bit address, or the other half of a 10-bit address is accomplished by simply writing a value to SSPBUF Register. This action will set the buffer full flag bit, BF, and allow the baud rate generator to begin counting and start the next transmission. Each bit of address/data will be shifted out onto the SDA pin after the falling edge of SCL is asserted (see data hold time specification parameter 106 in the “Electrical Specifications” section). SCL is held low for one baud rate generator roll over count (TBRG). Data should be valid before SCL is released high (see data setup time specification parameter 107 in the “Electrical Specifications” section). When the SCL pin is released high, it is held that way for TBRG, the data on the SDA pin must remain stable for that duration and some hold time after the next falling edge of SCL. After the eighth bit is shifted out (the falling edge of the eighth clock), the BF bit is cleared and the master releases the SDA pin. This allows the slave device being addressed to respond with an ACK bit during the ninth bit time, if an address match occurs or if data was received properly. The status of ACK is written into the ACKDT bit on the falling edge of the ninth clock. If the master receives an acknowledge, the acknowledge status bit, ACKSTAT, is cleared. If not, the bit is set. After the ninth clock, the SSPIF bit is set and the master clock (baud rate generator) is suspended until the next data byte is loaded into the SSPBUF, leaving the SCL pin low and the SDA pin unchanged (Figure 20-26). After the write to the SSPBUF, each bit of address will be shifted out on the falling edge of SCL until all seven address bits and the R/W bit are completed. On the falling edge of the eighth clock, the master will de-assert the SDA pin allowing the slave to respond with an acknowledge. On the falling edge of the ninth clock, the master will sample the SDA pin to see if the address was recognized by a slave. The status of the ACK bit is loaded into the ACKSTAT status bit (SSPCON2 register). Following the falling edge of the ninth clock transmission of the address, the SSPIF is set, the BF flag is cleared, and the baud rate generator is turned off until another write to the SSPBUF takes place, holding SCL low and allowing SDA to float. 20.4.11.1 BF Status Flag In transmit mode, the BF bit (SSPSTAT register) is set when the CPU writes to SSPBUF and is cleared when all 8 bits are shifted out. 20.4.11.2 WCOL Status Flag If the user writes the SSPBUF when a transmit is already in progress (i.e. SSPSR is still shifting out a data byte), then WCOL is set and the contents of the buffer are unchanged (the write doesn’t occur). WCOL must be cleared in software. 20.4.11.3 ACKSTAT Status Flag In transmit mode, the ACKSTAT bit (SSPCON2 register) is cleared when the slave has sent an acknowledge (ACK = 0), and is set when the slave does not acknowledge (ACK = 1). A slave sends an acknowledge when it has recognized its address (including a general call), or when the slave has properly received its data. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 37 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39520A-page 20-38  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

When the SDA pin is sampled high while the SCL pin is high, the P bit (SSPSTAT register) is set. A TBRG later, the PEN bit is cleared and the SSPIF bit is set (Figure 20-31). Whenever the firmware decides to take control of the bus, it will first determine if the bus is busy by checking the S and P bits in the SSPSTAT Register. If the bus is busy, then the CPU can be interrupted (notified) when a Stop bit is detected (i.e., bus is free). 20.4.14.1 WCOL Status Flag If the user writes the SSPBUF when a Stop sequence is in progress, then the WCOL bit is set and the contents of the buffer are unchanged (the write doesn’t occur).

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.15 Clock Arbitration Clock arbitration occurs when the master, during any receive, transmit, or Repeated Start/Stop condition de-asserts the SCL pin (SCL allowed to float high). When the SCL pin is allowed to float high, the baud rate generator (BRG) is suspended from counting until the SCL pin is actually sampled high. When the SCL pin is sampled high, the baud rate generator is reloaded with the contents of SSPADD<6:0> and begins counting. This ensures that the SCL high time will always be at least one BRG rollover count in the event that the clock is held low by an external device (Figure 20-33).

When the master outputs address/data bits onto the SDA pin, arbitration takes place when the master outputs a '1' on SDA by letting SDA float high and another master asserts a '0'. When the SCL pin floats high, data should be stable. If the expected data on SDA is a '1' and the data sampled on the SDA pin = '0', then a bus collision has taken place. The master will set the Bus Collision Interrupt Flag, BCLIF and reset the I2C port to its idle state. (Figure 20-34). If a transmit was in progress when the bus collision occurred, the transmission is halted, the BF flag is cleared, the SDA and SCL pins are de-asserted, and the SSPBUF can be written to. When the user services the bus collision interrupt service routine, and if the I2C bus is free, the user can resume communication by asserting a Start condition. If a Start, Repeated Start, Stop, or Acknowledge condition was in progress when the bus collision occurred, the condition is aborted, the SDA and SCL lines are de-asserted, and the respective control bits in the SSPCON2 Register are cleared. When the user services the bus collision interrupt service routine, and if the I2C bus is free, the user can resume communication by asserting a Start condition. The Master will continue to monitor the SDA and SCL pins, and if a Stop condition occurs, the SSPIF bit will be set. A write to the SSPBUF will start the transmission of data at the first data bit, regardless of where the transmitter left off when bus collision occurred. In multi-Master Mode, the interrupt generation on the detection of Start and Stop conditions allows the determination of when the bus is free. Control of the I2C bus can be taken when the P bit is set in the SSPSTAT Register, or the bus is idle and the S and P bits are cleared.

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.16.1 Bus Collision During a Start Condition During a Start condition, a bus collision occurs if: a) SDA or SCL pins are sampled low at the beginning of the Start condition (Figure 20-35). b) SCL pins are sampled low before the SDA pin is asserted low (Figure 20-36). During a Start condition both the SDA and the SCL pins are monitored. If one of the following conditions exists: • the SDA pin is already low • or the SCL pin is already low, Then, the following actions occur: • the Start condition is aborted, • the BCLIF bit is set, • the MSSP module is reset to its idle state (Figure 20-35). The Start condition begins with the SDA and SCL pins de-asserted. When the SDA pin is sampled high, the baud rate generator is loaded from SSPADD<6:0> and counts down to O. If the SCL pin is sampled low while SDA is high, a bus collision occurs, because it is assumed that another master is attempting to drive a data '1' during the Start condition. If the SDA pin is sampled low during this count, the BRG is reset and the SDA line is asserted early (Figure 20-37). If however a '1' is sampled on the SDA pin, the SDA pin is asserted low at the end of the BRG count. The baud rate generator is then reloaded and counts down to O. During this time, if the SCL pins is sampled as '0', a bus collision does not occur. At the end of the BRG count the SCL pin is asserted low. Figure 20-35: Bus Collision During Start Condition (SDA only) Note: The reason that bus collision is not a factor during a Start condition is that no two bus masters can assert a Start condition at the exact same time. Therefore, one master will always assert SDA before the other. This condition does not cause a bus collision because the two masters must be allowed to arbitrate the first address following the Start condition, and if the address is the same, arbitration must be allowed to continue into the data portion, Repeated Start, or Stop conditions.

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.16.2 Bus Collision During a Repeated Start Condition During a Repeated Start condition, a bus collision occurs if: a) A low level is sampled on SDA when SCL goes from low level to high level. b) SCL goes low before SDA is asserted low, indicating that another master is attempting to transmit a data ’1’. When the user de-asserts SDA and the pin is allowed to float high, the BRG is loaded with SSPADD<6:0> and counts down to 0. The SCL pin is then de-asserted, and when sampled high, the SDA pin is sampled. If SDA is low, a bus collision has occurred (i.e., another master, is attempting to transmit a data ’0’). If the SDA pin is sampled high, then the BRG is reloaded and begins counting. If the SDA pin goes from high to low before the BRG times out, no bus collision occurs because no two masters can assert SDA at exactly the same time, (Figure 20-38). If the SCL pin goes from high to low before the BRG times out and the SDA pin has not already been asserted, then a bus collision occurs. In this case, another master is attempting to transmit a data ’1’ during the Repeated Start condition, (Figure 20-39). If at the end of the BRG time-out, both the SCL and SDA pins are still high, the SDA pin is driven low and the BRG is reloaded and begins counting. At the end of the count, regardless of the status of the SCL pin, the SCL pin is driven low and the Repeated Start condition is complete.

The Stop condition begins with SDA asserted low. When SDA is sampled low, the SCL pin is allow to float. When the pin is sampled high (clock arbitration), the baud rate generator is loaded with SSPADD<6:0> and counts down to 0. After the BRG times out, SDA is sampled. If SDA is sampled low, a bus collision has occurred. This is due to another master attempting to drive a data '0' (Figure 20-40). If the SCL pin is sampled low before SDA is allowed to float high, a bus collision occurs. This is another case of another master attempting to drive a data '0' (Figure 20-41).

Master SSP Master SSP 20 20.4.17 Connection Considerations for I2C Bus For standard-mode I2C bus devices, the values of resistors Rp and Rs in Figure 20-42 depend on the following parameters: • Supply voltage • Bus capacitance • Number of connected devices (input current + leakage current) The supply voltage limits the minimum value of resistor Rp due to the specified minimum sink current of 3 mA at VOLMAX = 0.4V for the specified output stages. For example, with a supply voltage of VDD = 5V+10% and VOLMAX = 0.4V at 3 mA, RPMIN = (5.5-0.4)/0.003 = 1.7 kΩ. VDD as a function of Rp is shown in Figure 20-42. The desired noise margin of 0.1VDD for the low level. This limits the maximum value of Rs. Series resistors are optional, and used to improve ESD susceptibility. The bus capacitance is the total capacitance of wire, connections, and pins. This capacitance limits the maximum value of Rp due to the specified rise time (Figure 20-42). The SMP bit is the slew rate control enabled bit. This bit is in the SSPSTAT Register, and controls the slew rate of the I/O pins when in I2C mode (master or slave).

DS39521A-page 21-5 Section 21. Addressable USART Addressable USART 21 21.3 USART Baud Rate Generator (BRG) The BRG supports both the Asynchronous and Synchronous modes of the USART. It is a dedicated 8-bit baud rate generator. The SPBRG register controls the period of a free running 8-bit timer. In Asynchronous mode, the BRGH bit (TXSTA<2>) also controls the baud rate. In Synchronous mode, the BRGH bit is ignored. Table 21-1 shows the formula for computation of the baud rate for different USART modes that only apply in master mode (internal clock). Given the desired baud rate and FOSC, the nearest integer value for the SPBRG register can be calculated using the formula in Table 21-1, where X equals the value in the SPBRG register (0 to 255). From this, the error in baud rate can be determined. Table 21-1: Baud Rate Formula Example 21-1 shows the calculation of the baud rate error for the following conditions: FOSC = 16 MHz Desired Baud Rate = 9600 BRGH = 0 SYNC = 0 Example 21-1:Calculating Baud Rate Error It may be advantageous to use the high baud rate (BRGH = 1) even for slower baud clocks. This is because the FOSC / (16(X + 1)) equation can reduce the baud rate error in some cases. Writing a new value to the SPBRG register causes the BRG timer to be reset (or cleared). This ensures the BRG does not wait for a timer overflow before outputting the new baud rate. 21.3.1 SAMPLING The data on the RX/DT pin is sampled three times by a majority detect circuit to determine if a high or a low level is present at the RX pin. See Section 21.4.4 for additional information.

DS39521A-page 21-9 Section 21. Addressable USART Addressable USART 21 21.4 USART Asynchronous Mode In this mode, the USART uses standard nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) format (one start bit, eight or nine data bits and one stop bit). The most common data format is 8 bits. An on-chip dedicated 8-bit baud rate generator can be used to derive standard baud rate frequencies from the oscillator. The USART transmits and receives the LSb first. The USART’s transmitter and receiver are functionally independent, but use the same data format and baud rate. The baud rate generator produces a clock either x16 or x64 of the bit shift rate, depending on the BRGH bit (TXSTA register). Parity is not supported by the hardware, but can be implemented in software (stored as the ninth data bit). Asynchronous mode is stopped during SLEEP. Asynchronous mode is selected by clearing the SYNC bit (TXSTA register). The USART Asynchronous module consists of the following important elements: • Baud Rate Generator • Sampling Circuit • Asynchronous Transmitter • Asynchronous Receiver 21.4.1 USART Asynchronous Transmitter The USART transmitter block diagram is shown in Figure 21-1. The heart of the transmitter is the Transmit Shift Register (TSR). The shift register obtains its data from the transmit buffer, TXREG. The TXREG register is loaded with data in software. The TSR register is not loaded until the STOP bit has been transmitted from the previous load. As soon as the STOP bit is transmitted, the TSR is loaded with new data from the TXREG register (if available). Once the TXREG register transfers the data to the TSR register (occurs in one TCY), the TXREG register is empty and the TXIF flag bit is set. This interrupt can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing the TXIE enable bit. The TXIF flag bit will be set, regardless of the state of the TXIE enable bit and cannot be cleared in software. It will reset only when new data is loaded into the TXREG register. While the TXIF flag bit indicated the status of the TXREG register, the TRMT bit (TXSTA register) shows the status of the TSR register. The TRMT status bit is a read only bit, which is set when the TSR register is empty. No interrupt logic is tied to this bit, so the user has to poll this bit in order to determine if the TSR register is empty. Transmission is enabled by setting the TXEN enable bit (TXSTA register). The actual transmission will not occur until the TXREG register has been loaded with data and the Baud Rate Generator (BRG) has produced a shift clock (Figure 21-1). The transmission can also be started by first loading the TXREG register and then setting the TXEN enable bit. Normally when transmission is first started, the TSR register is empty, so a transfer to the TXREG register will result in an immediate transfer to TSR, resulting in an empty TXREG. A back-to-back transfer is thus possible (Figure 21-3). Clearing the TXEN enable bit during a transmission will cause the transmission to be aborted and will reset the transmitter. As a result, the TX/CK pin will revert to hi-impedance. In order to select 9-bit transmission the TX9 bit (TXSTA register) should be set and the ninth bit should be written to the TX9D bit (TXSTA register). The ninth bit must be written before writing the 8-bit data to the TXREG register. This is because a data write to the TXREG register can result in an immediate transfer of the data to the TSR register (if the TSR is empty). In such a case, an incorrect ninth data bit may be loaded in the TSR register. Note 1: The TSR register is not mapped in data memory, so it is not available to the user. 2: When the TXEN bit is set, the TXIF flag bit will also be set since the transmit buffer is not yet full (can move transmit data to the TXREG register). 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 9 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39521A-page 21-10  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. Figure 21-1: USART Transmit Block Diagram Steps to follow when setting up an Asynchronous Transmission: 1. Initialize the SPBRG register for the appropriate baud rate. If a high speed baud rate is desired, set the BRGH bit. (Subsection 21.3 “USART Baud Rate Generator (BRG)” ). 2. Enable the asynchronous serial port by clearing the SYNC bit and setting the SPEN bit. 3. If interrupts are desired, then set the TXIE, GIE/GIEH and PEIE/GIEL bits. Specify the interrupt priority if required. 4. If 9-bit transmission is desired, then set the TX9 bit (can be used as address/data bit). 5. Enable the transmission by setting the TXEN bit, which will also set the TXIF bit. 6. If 9-bit transmission is selected, the ninth bit should be loaded in the TX9D bit. 7. Load data to the TXREG register (starts transmission).

The data is received on the RX/DT pin and drives the data recovery block. The data recovery block is actually a high speed shifter operating at x16 times the baud rate, whereas the main receive serial shifter operates at the bit rate or at FOSC. This mode would typically be used in RS-232 systems. The USART module has a special provision for multi-processor communication. When the RX9 bit is set in the RCSTA register, 9-bits are received and the ninth bit is placed in the RX9D status bit of the RSTA register. The port can be programmed such that when the stop bit is received, the serial port interrupt will only be activated if the RX9D bit is set. This feature is enabled by setting the ADDEN bit in the RCSTA register and can be used in a multi-processor system in the following manner. To transmit a block of data in a multi-processor system, the master processor must first send an address byte that identifies the target slave. An address byte is identified by the RX9D bit being a ‘1’ (instead of a ‘0’ for a data byte). If the ADDEN bit is set in the slave’s RCSTA register, all data bytes will be ignored. However, if the ninth received bit is equal to a ‘1’, indicating that the received byte is an address, the slave will be interrupted and the contents of the Receive Shift Register (RSR) will be transferred into the receive buffer. This allows the slave to be interrupted only by addresses, so that the slave can examine the received byte to see if it is addressed. The addressed slave will then clear its ADDEN bit and prepare to receive data bytes from the master. When the ADDEN bit is set, all data bytes are ignored. Following the STOP bit, the data will not be loaded into the receive buffer and no interrupt will occur. If another byte is shifted into the RSR register, the previous data byte will be lost. The ADDEN bit will only take effect when the receiver is configured in 9-bit mode. Once Asynchronous mode is selected, reception is enabled by setting the CREN bit. The heart of the receiver is the Receive (serial) Shift Register (RSR). After sampling the RX/TX pin for the STOP bit, the received data in the RSR is transferred to the RCREG register (if it is empty). If the transfer is complete, the RCIF flag bit is set. The actual interrupt can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing the RCIE enable bit. The RCIF flag bit is a read only bit that is cleared by the hardware. It is cleared when the RCREG register has been read and is empty. The RCREG is a double-buffered register (i.e., it is a two-deep FIFO). It is possible for two bytes of data to be received and transferred to the RCREG FIFO and a third byte begin shifting to the RSR register. On the detection of the STOP bit of the third byte, if the RCREG register is still full, overrun error bit, OERR, will be set. The word in the RSR will be lost. The RCREG register can be read twice to retrieve the two bytes in the FIFO. The OERR bit has to be cleared in software. This is done by resetting the receive logic (the CREN bit is cleared and then set). If the OERR bit is set, transfers from the RSR register to the RCREG register are inhibited, so it is essential to clear the OERR bit if it is set. Framing error bit, FERR, is set if a stop bit is detected as a low level. The FERR bit and the 9th receive bit are buffered the same way as the receive data. Reading the RCREG will load the RX9D and FERR bits with new values. Therefore, it is essential for the user to read the RCSTA register before reading the next RCREG register, in order not to lose the old (previous) information in the FERR and RX9D bits.

When transmitting data, the reception is inhibited and vice versa. Synchronous mode is entered by setting the SYNC bit. In addition, the SPEN enable bit is set in order to configure the TX/CK and RX/DT I/O pins to CK (clock) and DT (data) lines respectively. The Master mode indicates that the processor transmits the master clock on the CK line. The Master mode is entered by setting the CSRC bit. 21.5.1 USART Synchronous Master Transmission The USART transmitter block diagram is shown in Figure 21-1. The heart of the transmitter is the Transmit Shift Register (TSR). The shift register obtains its data from the read/write transmit buffer register TXREG. The TXREG register is loaded with data in software. The TSR register is not loaded until the last bit has been transmitted from the previous load. As soon as the last bit is transmitted, the TSR is loaded with new data from the TXREG (if available). Once the TXREG register transfers the data to the TSR register (occurs in one Tcycle), the TXREG is empty and the TXIF interrupt flag bit is set. The interrupt can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing the TXIE enable bit. The TXIF flag bit will be set regardless of the state of the TXIE enable bit and cannot be cleared in software. It will reset only when new data is loaded into the TXREG register. While the TXIF flag bit indicates the status of the TXREG register, the TRMT bit shows the status of the TSR register. The TRMT bit is a read only bit that is set when the TSR is empty. No interrupt logic is tied to this bit, so the user has to poll this bit in order to determine if the TSR register is empty. The TSR is not mapped in data memory, so it is not available to the user. Transmission is enabled by setting the TXEN bit. The actual transmission will not occur until the TXREG register has been loaded with data. The first data bit will be shifted out on the next available rising edge of the clock on the CK line. Data out is stable at the falling edge of the synchronous clock (Figure 21-10). The transmission can also be started by first loading the TXREG register and then setting the TXEN bit. This is advantageous when slow baud rates are selected, since the BRG is kept in RESET when the TXEN, CREN and SREN bits are clear. Setting the TXEN bit will start the BRG, creating a shift clock immediately. Normally, when transmission is first started, the TSR register is empty, so a transfer to the TXREG register will result in an immediate transfer to TSR, resulting in an empty TXREG. Back-to-back transfers are possible. Clearing the TXEN bit during a transmission will cause the transmission to be aborted and will reset the transmitter. The DT and CK pins will revert to hi-impedance. If either of the CREN or SREN bits are set during a transmission, the transmission is aborted and the DT pin reverts to a hi-impedance state (for a reception). The CK pin will remain an output if the CSRC bit is set (internal clock). The transmitter logic is not reset although it is disconnected from the pins. In order to reset the transmitter, the user has to clear the TXEN bit. If the SREN bit is set (to interrupt an on-going transmission and receive a single word), then after the single word is received, the SREN bit will be cleared and the serial port will revert back to transmitting, since the TXEN bit is still set. The DT line will immediately switch from hi-impedance receive mode to transmit and start driving. To avoid this, the TXEN bit should be cleared. In order to select 9-bit transmission, the TX9 bit should be set and the ninth bit should be written to the TX9D bit. The ninth bit must be written before writing the 8-bit data to the TXREG register. This is because a data write to the TXREG can result in an immediate transfer of the data to the TSR register (if the TSR is empty). If the TSR was empty and the TXREG was written before writing the “new” value to the TX9D bit, the “present” value of the TX9D bit is loaded. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 18 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Addressable USART Addressable USART 21 21.5.1.1 USART Synchronous Master Reception Once Synchronous mode is selected, reception is enabled by setting either the SREN or CREN bits. Data is sampled on the RX/DT pin on the falling edge of the clock. If the SREN bit is set, then only a single word is received. If the CREN bit is set, the reception is continuous until the CREN bit is cleared. If both bits are set, then the CREN bit takes precedence. After clocking the last serial data bit, the received data in the Receive Shift Register (RSR) is transferred to the RCREG register (if it is empty). When the transfer is complete, the RCIF interrupt flag bit is set. The actual interrupt can be enabled/disabled by setting/clearing the RCIE enable bit. The RCIF flag bit is a read only bit that is cleared by the hardware. In this case, it is cleared when the RCREG register has been read and is empty. The RCREG is a double buffered register (i.e., it is a two-deep FIFO). It is possible for two bytes of data to be received and transferred to the RCREG FIFO and a third byte to begin shifting into the RSR register. On the clocking of the last bit of the third byte, if the RCREG register is still full, then the overrun error bit, OERR, is set and the word in the RSR is lost. The RCREG register can be read twice to retrieve the two bytes in the FIFO. The OERR bit has to be cleared in software (by clearing the CREN bit). If the OERR bit is set, transfers from the RSR to the RCREG are inhibited, so it is essential to clear the OERR bit if it is set. The 9th receive bit is buffered the same way as the receive data. Reading the RCREG register will load the RX9D bit with a new value; therefore, it is essential for the user to read the RCSTA register before reading RCREG in order to not lose the old (previous) information in the RX9D bit. Steps to follow when setting up a Synchronous Master Reception: 1. Initialize the SPBRG register for the appropriate baud rate. (Subsection 21.3 “USART Baud Rate Generator (BRG)” ) 2. Enable the synchronous master serial port by setting the SYNC, SPEN and CSRC bits. 3. Ensure that the CREN and SREN bits are clear. 4. If interrupts are desired, then set the RCIE bit and configure the RCIP, GIE/GIEH and PEIE/GIEL bits, appropriately. 5. If 9-bit reception is desired, then set the RX9 bit. 6. If a single reception is required, set the SREN bit. For continuous reception, set the CREN bit. 7. The RCIF bit will be set when reception is complete and an interrupt will be generated if the RCIE bit is set. 8. Read the RCSTA register to get the ninth bit (if enabled) and determine if any error occurred during reception. 9. Read the 8-bit received data by reading the RCREG register. 10. If any error occurred, clear the error by clearing the CREN bit.

Addressable USART Addressable USART 21 21.6 USART Synchronous Slave Mode Synchronous slave mode differs from the Master mode in the fact that the shift clock is supplied externally at the TX/CK pin (instead of being supplied internally in Master mode). This allows the device to transfer or receive data while in SLEEP mode. Slave mode is entered by clearing the CSRC bit (TXSTA<7>). 21.6.1 USART Synchronous Slave Transmit The operation of the Synchronous Master and Slave modes are identical, except in the case of the SLEEP mode. If two words are written to the TXREG and then the SLEEP instruction is executed, the following will occur: a) The first word will immediately transfer to the TSR register and transmit. b) The second word will remain in TXREG register. c) The TXIF flag bit will not be set. d) When the first word has been shifted out of TSR, the TXREG register will transfer the second word to the TSR and the TXIF flag bit will now be set. e) If the TXIE enable bit is set, the interrupt will wake the chip from SLEEP and if the global interrupt is enabled, the program will branch to the interrupt vector. Steps to follow when setting up a Synchronous Slave Transmission: 1. Enable the synchronous slave serial port by setting the SYNC and SPEN bits and clearing the CSRC bit. 2. Clear the CREN and SREN bits. 3. If interrupts are desired, then set the TXIE enable bit and configure the RCIP, GIE/GIEH and PEIE/GIEL bits, appropriately. 4.

Also, bit SREN is a "don't care" in Slave mode. If receive is enabled, by setting the CREN bit prior to the SLEEP instruction, then a word may be received during SLEEP. On completely receiving the word, the RSR register will transfer the data to the RCREG register and if the RCIE enable bit bit is set, the interrupt generated will wake the chip from SLEEP. If the global interrupt is enabled, the program will branch to the appropriate interrupt vector. Steps to follow when setting up a Synchronous Slave Reception: 1.

Answer 1: The most common reasons are 1. You have incorrectly calculated the value to load in to the SPBRG register. 2. The sum of the baud errors for the transmitter and receiver is too high. Question 2: The PICmicro device is not receiving the data transmitted even though there are good levels on the Addressable USART pins. Answer 2: Ensure that the Address Detect Enable bit is at the desired setting. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 26 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The Protocol is fully defined by Robert Bosch GmbH, in the CAN Specification V2.0B from 1991. Its domain of application ranges from high speed networks to low cost multiplex wiring. In automotive electronics; (engine control units, sensors, anti-skid-systems, etc.) are connected using CAN with bit rates up to 1 Mbit/sec. The CAN Network allows a cost effective replacement of the wiring harnesses in the automobile. The robustness of the bus in noisy environments and the ability to detect and recover from fault conditions makes the bus suitable for industrial control applications such as DeviceNet, SDS and other fieldbus protocols. CAN is an asynchronous serial bus system with one logical bus line. It has an open, linear bus structure with equal bus nodes. A CAN bus consists of two or more nodes. The number of nodes on the bus may be changed dynamically without disturbing the communication of other nodes. This allows easy connection and disconnection of bus nodes (e.g. for addition of system function, error recovery or bus monitoring). The bus logic corresponds to a "wired-AND" mechanism, "Recessive" bits (mostly, but not necessarily equivalent to the logic level “1”) are overwritten by "Dominant" bits (mostly logic level "0"). As long as no bus node is sending a dominant bit, the bus line is in the recessive state, but a dominant bit from any bus node generates the dominant bus state. Therefore, for the CAN bus line, a medium must be chosen that is able to transmit the two possible bit states (dominant and recessive). One of the most common and cheapest ways is to use a twisted wire pair. The bus lines are then called "CANH" and "CANL", and may be connected directly to the nodes or via a connector. There's no standard defined by CAN regarding the connector to be used. The twisted wire pair is terminated by terminating resistors at each end of the bus line. The maximum bus speed is 1 Mbit, which can be achieved with a bus length of up to 40 meters. For bus lengths longer than 40 meters the bus speed must be reduced (a 1000 m bus can be realized with a 40 Kbit bus speed). For a bus length above 1000 meters special drivers should be used. At least 20 nodes may be connected without additional equipment. Due to the differential nature of transmission, CAN is insensitive to EMI because both bus lines are affected in the same way which leaves the differential signal unaffected. The bus lines can also be shielded to reduce the electromagnetic emission of the bus itself, especially at high baud rates. The binary data is coded corresponding to the NRZ code (Non-Return-to-Zero; low level = dominant state; high level = recessive state). To ensure clock synchronization of all bus nodes, bit-stuffing is used. This means that during the transmission of a message a maximum of five consecutive bits may have the same polarity. Whenever five consecutive bits of the same polarity have been transmitted, the transmitter will insert one additional bit of the opposite polarity into the bit stream before transmitting further bits. The receiver also checks the number of bits with the same polarity and removes the stuff bits from the bit stream (destuffing). In the CAN protocol it is not bus nodes that are addressed, but the address information is contained in the messages that are transmitted. This is done via an identifier (part of each message) which identifies the message content (e.g. engine speed, oil temperature etc.,). The identifier additionally indicates the priority of the message. The lower the binary value of the identifier, the higher the priority of the message. For bus arbitration, Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) with Non-Destructive Arbitration (NDA) is used. If bus node A wants to transmit a message across the network, it first checks that the bus is in the idle state ("Carrier Sense") i.e., no node is currently transmitting. If this is the case (and no other node wishes to start a transmission at the same moment) node A becomes the bus master and sends its message. All other nodes switch to receive mode during the first transmitted bit (Start Of Frame bit). After correct reception of the message (which is acknowledged by each node) each bus node checks the message identifier and stores the message, if required. Otherwise, the message is discarded. If two or more bus nodes start their transmission at the same time ("Multiple Access"), collision of the messages is avoided by bitwise arbitration ("Collision Detection/Non-Destructive Arbitration" together with the "Wired-AND" mechanism, "dominant" bits override "recessive" bits). Each node sends the bits of its message identifier (MSb first) and monitors the bus level. A node that sends a recessive identifier bit but reads back a dominant one loses bus arbitration and switches to receive mode. This condition occurs when the message identifier of a competing node has a 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 28 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39522A-page 22-29 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 lower binary value (dominant state = logic 0) and therefore, the competing node is sending a message with a higher priority. In this way, the bus node with the highest priority message wins arbitration without losing time by having to repeat the message. All other nodes automatically try to repeat their transmission once the bus returns to the idle state. It is not permitted for different nodes to send messages with the same identifier as arbitration could fail leading to collisions and errors later in the message. The original CAN specifications (Versions 1.0, 1.2 and 2.0A) defined the message identifier as having a length of 11 bits giving a possible 2048 message identifiers. The specification has since been updated (to version 2.0B) to remove this limitation. CAN specification Version 2.0B allows message identifier lengths of 11 and/or 29 bits to be used (an identifier length of 29 bits allows over 536 Million message identifiers). Version 2.0B CAN is also referred to as "Extended CAN"; and Versions 1.0, 1.2 and 2.0A) are referred to as "Standard CAN". 22.3.1 Standard CAN vs. Extended CAN Those Data Frames and Remote Frames, which only contain the 11 bit identifier, are called Standard Frames according to CAN specification V2.0A. With these frames, 2048 different messages can be identified (identifiers 0-2047). However, the 16 messages with the lowest priority (2032-2047) are reserved. Extended Frames according to CAN specification V2.0B have a 29 bit identifier. As already mentioned, this 29 bit identifier is made up of the 11 bit identifier ("Standard lD") and the 18 bit Extended identifier ("Extended ID"). CAN modules specified by CAN V2.0A are only able to transmit and receive Standard Frames according to the Standard CAN protocol. Messages using the 29 bit identifier cause errors. If a device is specified by CAN V2.0B, there is one more distinction. Modules named "Part B Passive" can only transmit and receive Standard Frames but tolerate Extended Frames without generating Error Frames. "Part B Active" devices are able to transmit and receive both Standard and Extended Frames. 22.3.2 Basic CAN vs. Full CAN There is one more CAN characteristic concerning the interface between the CAN module and the host CPU, dividing CAN chips into "Basic CAN" and "Full CAN" devices. This distinction is not related to Standard vs. Extended CAN, which makes it possible to use both Basic and Full CAN devices in the same network. In the Basic CAN devices, only basic functions of the protocol are implemented in hardware, e.g. the generation and the check of the bit stream. The decision, if a received message has to be stored or not (acceptance filtering) and the whole message management has to be done by software, i.e., by the host CPU. In addition, the CAN chip typically provides only one transmit buffer and one or two receive buffers. So the host CPU load is quite high using Basic CAN modules, and these devices can only be used at low baud rates and low bus loads with only a few different messages. The advantages of Basic CAN are the small chip size leading to low costs of these devices. Full CAN devices implement the whole bus protocol in hardware including the acceptance filtering and the message management. They contain several so called message objects which handle the identifier, the data, the direction (receive or transmit) and the information Standard CAN/Extended CAN. During the initialization of the device, the host CPU defines which messages are to be sent and which are to be received. The host CPU is informed by interrupt if the identifier of a received message matches with one of the programmed (receive-) message objects. In this way. the CPU load is reduced. Using Full CAN devices, high baud rates and high bus loads with many messages can be handled. These chips are more expensive than the Basic CAN devices, though. Many Full CAN chips provide a "Basic-CAN Feature". One of the messages objects can be programmed in so that every message is stored there that does not match with one of the other message objects. This can be very helpful in a number of applications. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 29 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-30  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.3.3 ISO Model The lSO/OSl Reference Model is used to define the layers of protocol of a communication system as shown in Figure 22-2. At the highest end, the applications need to communicate between each other. At the lowest end, some physical medium is used to provide electrical signaling. The higher levels of the protocol are run by software. Within the CAN bus specification, there is no definition of the type of message or the contents or meaning of the messages transferred. These definitions are made in systems such as Volcano, the Volvo automotive CAN specification; J1939, the U.S. heavy truck multiplex wiring specification; and Allen-Bradly DeviceNet and Honeywell SDS, examples of industrial protocols. The CAN bus module definition encompasses two levels of the overall protocol. • The Data Link Layer - The Logical Link Control (LLC) sub layer - The Medium Access Control (MAC) sub layer • The Physical Layer - The Physical Signaling (PLS) sub layer The LLC sub layer is concerned with Message Filtering, Overload Notification and Error Recovery Management. The scope of the LLC sub layer is: • To provide services for data transfer and for remote data request, • To decide which messages received by the LLC sub layer are actually to be accepted, • To provide means for error recovery management and overload notifications. The MAC sub layer represents the kernel of the CAN protocol. The MAC sub layer defines the transfer protocol, i.e., controlling the Framing, Performing Arbitration, Error Checking, Error Signalling and Fault Confinement. It presents messages received from the LLC sub layer and accepts messages to be transmitted to the LLC sub layer. Within the MAC sub layer it is decided whether the bus is free for starting a new transmission or whether a reception is just starting. The MAC sub layer is supervised by a management entity called Fault Confinement which is self-checking mechanism for distinguishing short disturbances from permanent failures. Also, some general features of the bit timing are regarded as part of the MAC sub layer. The physical layer defines the actual transfer of the bits between the different nodes with respect to all electrical properties. The PLS sub layer defines how signals are actually transmitted and therefore deals with the description of Bit Timing, Bit Encoding, and Synchronization. The lower levels of the protocol are implemented in driver/receiver chips and the actual interface such as twisted pair wiring or optical fiber etc. Within one network, the physical layer has to be the same for all nodes. The Driver/Receiver Characteristics of the Physical Layer are not defined so as to allow transmission medium and signal level implementations to be optimized for their application. The most common example is defined in ISO11898 Road Vehicles multiplex wiring specification. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 30 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

CAN CAN 22 22.5 CAN Module Implementation This subsection will discuss the implementation of the CAN module and the supported frame formats. 22.5.1 Overview of the Module The CAN bus module consists of a Protocol Engine and message buffering and control. The Protocol Engine can best be understood by defining the types of data frames to be transmitted and received by the module. These blocks are shown in Figure 22-3.

Figure 22-4: CAN Bus Connection with CAN Bus Terminators 22.5.2 CAN Protocol Engine The CAN protocol engine combines several functional blocks, shown in Figure 22-5. These units and the functions they provide are described below. The heart of the engine is the Protocol Finite State Machine (FSM). This state machine sequences through the messages on a bit by bit basis, changing states of the machine as various fields of various frame types are transmitted or received. The framing messages in Section 22.6 show the states associated with each bit. The FSM is a sequencer controlling the sequential data stream between the TX/RX Shift Register, the CRC Register, and the bus line. The FSM also controls the Error Management Logic (EML) and the parallel data stream between the TX/RX Shift Register and the buffers such that the processes of reception arbitration, transmission, and error signaling are performed according to the CAN protocol. Note that the automatic retransmission of messages on the bus line is handled by the FSM. The data interface to the engine consists of byte wide transmit and receive data. Rather than assembling and shifting an entire frame, the frames are broken into bytes. A receive or transmit address from the Protocol FSM signifies which byte of the frame is current. For transmission, the appropriate byte from the transmit buffer is selected and presented to the engine, which then uses an 8 bit shift register to serialize the data. For reception, an 8 bit shift register assembles a byte which is then loaded into the appropriate byte in the message assembly buffer. The Cyclic Redundancy Check Register generates the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) code to be transmitted over the data bytes and checks the CRC code of incoming messages. The Error Management Logic (EML) is responsible for the fault confinement of the CAN device. Its counters, the Receive Error Counter and the Transmit Error Counter, are incremented and decremented by commands from the Bit Stream Processor. According to the values of the error counters, the CAN controller is set into the states error active, error passive or bus off. The Bit Timing Logic (BTL) monitors the bus line input and handles the bus line related bit timing according to the CAN protocol. The BTL synchronizes on a recessive to dominant busline transition at Start of Frame (hard synchronization) and on any further recessive to dominant bus line transition, if the CAN controller itself does not transmit a dominant bit (resynchronization). The BTL also provides programmable time segments to compensate for the propagation delay time and for phase shifts and in defining the position of the Sample Point in the bit time. The programming of the BTL depends on the baud rate and on external physical delay times.

Messages are transmitted by first loading the appropriate data registers. Status and errors can be checked by reading the appropriate registers. Any message detected on the CAN bus is checked for errors and then matched against filters to see if it should be received and stored in one of the 2 receive registers. The CAN Module supports the following Frame types: • Standard Data Frame • Extended Data Frame • Remote Frame • Error Frame • Overload Frame • Interframe Space Section 22.6 describes the Frames and their formats. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 36 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39522A-page 22-37 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.6 Frame Types This chapter describes the CAN Frame types supported by the CAN module. 22.6.1 Standard Data Frame A Standard Data Frame is generated by a node when the node wishes to transmit data. The Standard CAN Data Frame is shown in Figure 22-6. In common with all other frames, the frame begins with a Start Of Frame bit (SOF - dominant state) for hard synchronization of all nodes. The SOF is followed by the Arbitration Field consisting of 12 bits, the 11 bit ldentifier (reflecting the contents and priority of the message) and the RTR bit (Remote Transmission Request bit). The RTR bit is used to distinguish a data Frame (RTR - dominant) from a Remote Frame. The next field is the Control Field, consisting of 6 bits. The first bit of this field is called the Identifier Extension (IDE) bit and is at dominant state to specify that the frame is a Standard Frame. The following bit is reserved, RB0, and defined as a dominant bit. The remaining 4 bits of the Control Field are the Data Length Code (DLC) and specify the number of bytes of data contained in the message. The data being sent follows in the Data Field which is of the length defined by the DLC above (0 - 8 bytes). The Cyclic Redundancy Field (CRC) follows and is used to detect possible transmission errors. The CRC Field consists of a 15 bit CRC sequence, completed by the End of Frame (EOF) field, which consists of seven recessive bits (no bit-stuffing). The final field is the Acknowledge Field. During the ACK Slot bit the transmitting node sends out a recessive bit. Any node that has received an error free frame acknowledges the correct reception of the frame by sending back a dominant bit (regardless of whether the node is configured to accept that specific message or not). The recessive Acknowledge Delimiter completes the Acknowledge Slot and may not be overwritten by a dominant bit. 22.6.1.1 Extended Data Frame In the Extended CAN Data Frame, shown in Figure 22-7, the Start of Frame bit (SOF) is followed by the Arbitration Field consisting of 38 bits. The first 11 bits are the 11 most significant bits of the 29 bit identifier ("Base-lD"). These 11 bits are followed by the Substitute Remote Request bit (SRR), which is transmitted as recessive. The SRR is followed by the lDE bit which is recessive to denote that the frame is an Extended CAN frame. It should be noted from this, that if arbitration remains unresolved after transmission of the first 11 bits of the identifier, and one of the nodes involved in arbitration is sending a Standard CAN frame (11 bit identifier), then the Standard CAN frame will win arbitration due to the assertion of a dominant lDE bit. Also, the SRR bit in an Extended CAN frame must be recessive to allow the assertion of a dominant RTR bit by a node that is sending a Standard CAN Remote Frame. The SRR and lDE bits are followed by the remaining 18 bits of the identifier ("lD-Extension") and the Remote Transmission Request bit. To enable standard and extended frames to be sent across a shared network, it is necessary to split the 29 bit extended message Identifier into 11 bit (most significant) and 18 bit (least significant) sections. This split ensures that the Identifier Extension bit (lDE) can remain at the same bit position in both standard and extended frames. The next field is the Control Field, consisting of 6 bits. The first 2 bits of this field are reserved and are at dominant state. The remaining 4 bits of the Control Field are the Data Length Code (DLC) and specify the number of data bytes. The remaining portion of the frame (Data Field, CRC Field, Acknowledge Field, End Of Frame and lntermission) is constructed in the same way as for a Standard Data Frame. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 37 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-38  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.6.1.2 Remote Frame Normally data transmission is performed on an autonomous basis with the data source node (e.g. a sensor sending out a Data Frame). It is possible, however, for a destination node to request the data from the source. For this purpose, the destination node sends a "Remote Frame" with an identifier that matches the identifier of the required Data Frame. The appropriate data source node will then send a Data Frame as a response to this Remote request. There are 2 differences between a Remote Frame and a Data Frame, shown in Figure 22-8. First, the RTR bit is at the recessive state and second there is no Data Field. In the very unlikely event of a Data Frame and a Remote Frame with the same identifier being transmitted at the same time, the Data Frame wins arbitration due to the dominant RTR bit following the identifier. In this way, the node that transmitted the Remote Frame receives the desired data immediately. 22.6.1.3 The Error Frame An Error Frame is generated by any node that detects a bus error. An error frame, shown in Figure 22-9, consists of 2 fields, an Error Flag field followed by an Error Delimiter field. The Error Delimiter consists of 8 recessive bits and allows the bus nodes to restart bus communications cleanly after an error. There are two forms of Error Flag fields. The form of the Error Flag field depends on the error status of the node that detects the error. If an error-active node detects a bus error then the node interrupts transmission of the current message by generating an active error flag. The active error flag is composed of six consecutive dominant bits. This bit sequence actively violates the bit-stuffing rule. All other stations recognize the resulting bit-stuffing error and in turn generate Error Frames themselves, called Error Echo Flags. The Error Flag field therefore consists of between six and twelve consecutive dominant bits (generated by one or more nodes). The Error Delimiter field completes the Error Frame. After completion of the Error Frame, bus activity retains to normal and the interrupted node attempts to resend the aborted message. If an error passive node detects a bus error then the node transmits an error passive flag followed, again, by the Error Delimiter field. The error passive flag consists of six consecutive recessive bits. From this it follows that, unless the bus error is detected by the bus master node or other error active receiver, that is actually transmitting, the transmission of an Error Frame by an error passive node will not affect any other node on the network. If the bus master node generates an error passive flag then this may cause other nodes to generate error frames due to the resulting bit-stuffing violation. After transmission of an Error Frame, an error passive node must wait for 6 consecutive recessive bits on the bus before attempting to rejoin bus communications. 22.6.1.4 The Overload Frame An Overload Frame, shown in Figure 22-10, has the same format as an Active Error Frame. An Overload Frame, however can only be generated during lnterframe Space. This way, an Overload Frame can be differentiated from an Error Frame (an Error Frame is sent during the transmission of a message). The Overload Frame consists of 2 fields, an Overload Flag followed by an Overload Delimiter. The Overload Flag consists of six dominant bits followed by Overload Flags generated by other nodes (as for active error flag, again giving a maximum of twelve dominant bits). The Overload Delimiter consists of eight recessive bits. An Overload Frame can be generated by a node as a result of 2 conditions. First, the node detects a dominant bit during lnterframe Space which is an illegal condition. Second, due to internal conditions, the node is not yet able to start reception of the next message. A node may generate a maximum of 2 sequential Overload Frames to delay the start of the next message. 22.6.1.5 The Interframe Space Interframe Space separates a proceeding frame (of whatever type) from a following Data or Remote Frame. lnterframe space is composed of at least 3 recessive bits, called the intermission. This is provided to allow nodes time for internal processing before the start of the next message frame. After the intermission, the bus line remains in the recessive state (Bus idle) until the next transmission starts. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 38 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

These modes include: • Initialization Mode • Disable Mode • Normal Operation Mode • Listen Only Mode • Loop Back Mode • Error Recognition Mode (selected through CANRXM bits) Modes are requested by setting the REQOP2:REQOP0 bits except the Error Recognition Mode, which is requested through the CANRXM bits. Entry into a mode is acknowledged by monitoring the OPMODE bits. The module will not change the mode and the OPMODE2:OPMODE0 bits until a change in mode is acceptable, generally during bus idle time which is defined as at least 11 consecutive recessive bits. 22.7.1 Initialization Mode In the initialization mode, the module will not transmit or receive. The error counters are cleared and the interrupt flags remain unchanged. The programmer will have access to configuration registers that are access restricted in other modes. The CAN bus configuration mode is explained in Section 22.8. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 44 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39522A-page 22-45 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.7.2 Disable Mode In Disable Mode, the module will not transmit or receive. The module has the ability to set the WAKIF bit due to bus activity, however any pending interrupts will remain and the error counters will retain their value. If the REQOP2:REQOP0 bits = 001, the module will enter the module disable mode. This mode is similar to disabling other peripheral modules by turning off the module enables. This causes the module internal clock to stop unless the module is active (i.e., receiving or transmitting a message). If the module is active, the module will wait for 11 recessive bits on the CAN bus, detect that condition as an idle bus then accept the module disable command. When the OPMODE2:OPMODE0 bits = 001, that indicates whether the module successfully went into module disable mode (see Figure 22-11). The WAKIF interrupt is the only module interrupt that is still active in the module disable mode. If the WAKIE is set, the processor will receive an interrupt whenever the CAN bus detects a dominant state, as occurs with a Start of Frame (SOF). The I/O pins will revert to normal I/O function when the module is in the module disable mode.

The user is responsible to take care that the module is not active when the CPU goes into SLEEP mode. The pins will revert into normal I/O function, dependent on the value in the TRIS register. The recommended procedure is to bring the module into disabled mode before the CPU SLEEP instruction is executed. Figure 22-12 illustrates the sequence of events when a CAN message is received during execution of the SLEEP instruction.

CAN CAN 22 22.7.2.2 Wake-up from SLEEP Figure 22-13 depicts how the CAN module will execute the SLEEP instruction and how the module wakes up on bus activity. Upon a Wake-up from SLEEP the WAKIF flag is set. The module will monitor the RX line for activity while the MCU is in SLEEP mode. If the module is in CPU SLEEP mode and the WAKIE wake-up interrupt enable is set, the module will generate an interrupt, bringing up the CPU. Due to the delays in starting up the oscillator and CPU, the message activity that caused the wake-up will be lost. If the module is in CPU SLEEP mode and the WAKIE is not set, no interrupt will be generated and the CPU and the module will continue to sleep. If the CAN module is in disable mode, the module will wake-up and, depending on the condition of the WAKIE bit, may generate an interrupt. It is expected that the module will correctly receive the message that caused the wake-up from SLEEP mode. The module can be programmed to apply a low-pass filter function to the RxCAN input line while the module or the CPU is in SLEEP mode. This feature can be used to protect the module from Wake-up due to short glitches on the CAN bus lines. Such glitches can result from electromagnetic inference within noisy environments. The WAKFIL bit enables or disables the filter.

In this mode, the module is activated, the I/O pins will assume the CAN bus functions. The module will transmit and receive CAN bus messages as described in subsequent paragraphs. 22.7.4 Listen Only Mode Listen only mode and loopback modes are special cases of normal operation mode to allow system debug. If the listen only mode is activated, the module on the CAN bus is passive. The transmitter buffers revert to Port I/O function. The receive pins remain input. For the receiver, no error flags or acknowledge signals are sent. The error counters are deactivated in this state. The listen only mode can be used for detecting the baud rate on the CAN bus. To use this, it is necessary that there are at least two further nodes that communicate with each other. The baud rate can be detected empirically by testing different values. This mode is also useful as a bus monitor without influencing the data traffic. 22.7.5 Error Recognition Mode The module can be set to ignore all errors and receive any message. The error recognition mode is activated by setting the RXM1:RXM0 bits in the RXBnCON registers to 11. In this mode the data which is in the message assembly buffer until the error time is copied in the receive buffer and can be read via the CPU interface. In addition the data which was on the internal sampling of the CAN bus at the error time and the state vector of the protocol state machine and the bit counter CntCan are stored in registers and can be read. 22.7.6 Loop Back Mode If the loopback mode is activated, the module will connect the internal transmit signal to the internal receive signal at the module boundary. The transmit and receive pins revert to their Port I/O function. The transmitter will receive an acknowledge for its sent messages. Special hardware will generate an acknowledge for the transmitter. 22.8 CAN Bus Initialization After a RESET the CAN module is in the configuration mode (OPMODE2 is set). The error counters are cleared and all registers contain the reset values. It should be ensured that the initialization is performed before REQOP2 bit is cleared. 22.8.1 Initialization The CAN module has to be initialized before the activation. This is only possible if the module is in the configuration mode. The configuration mode is requested by setting REQOP2 bit. Only when the status bit OPMODE2 has a high level, the initialization can be performed. Afterwards the configuration registers and the acceptance mask registers and the acceptance filter registers can be written. The module is activated by setting the control bits CFGREQ to zero. The module will protect the user from accidentally violating the CAN protocol through programming errors. All registers which control the configuration of the module can not be modified while the module is on-line. The CAN module will not be allowed to enter the configuration mode while a transmission is taking place. The CONFIG mode serves as a lock to protect the following registers. • All Module Control Registers • Configuration Registers • Bus Timing Registers • Identifier Acceptance Filter Registers • Identifier Acceptance Mask Registers 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 48 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39522A-page 22-49 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.9 Message Reception This chapter describes the message reception. 22.9.1 Receive Buffers The CAN bus module has 3 receive buffers. However, one of the receive buffers is always committed to monitoring the bus for incoming messages. This buffer is called the message assembly buffer, MAB. So there are 2 receive buffers visible, RXB0 and RXB1, that can essentially instantaneously receive a complete message from the protocol engine. The CPU can be operating on one while the other is available for reception or holding a previously received message. The MAB holds the destuffed bit stream from the bus line to allow parallel access to the whole data or Remote Frame for the acceptance match test and the parallel transfer of the frame to the receive buffers. The MAB will assemble all messages received. These messages will be transferred to the RXBn buffers only if the acceptance filter criterion are met. When a message is received, the RXFUL bit will be set. This bit can only be set by the module when a message is received. The bit is cleared by the CPU when it has completed processing the message in the buffer. This bit provides a positive lockout to ensure that the CPU has finished with the message buffer. If the RXnIE bit is set , an interrupt will be generated when a message is received. There are 2 programmable acceptance filter masks associated with the receive buffers, one for each buffer. When the message is received, the FILHIT2:FILHIT0 bits (RXBnCON register) indicate the acceptance criterion for the message. The number of the acceptance filter that enabled the reception will be indicated as well as a status bit that indicates that the received message is a remote transfer request. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 49 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-50  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.9.1.1 Receive Buffer Priority To provide flexibility, there are several acceptance filters corresponding to each receive buffer. There is also an implied priority to the receive buffers. RXB0 is the higher priority buffer and has 2 message acceptance filters associated with it. RXB1 is the lower priority buffer and has 4 acceptance filters associated with it. The lower number of possible acceptance filters makes the match on RXB0 more restrictive and implies the higher criticality associated with that buffer. Additionally, if the RXB0 contains a valid message, and another valid message is received, the RXB0 can be setup such that it will not overrun and the new message for RXB0 will be placed into RXB1. Figure 22-14 shows a block diagram of the receive buffer, while Figure 22-15 shows a flow chart for receive operation.

Once a valid message has been received into the MAB, the identifier fields of the message are compared to the filter values. If there is a match, that message will be loaded into the appropriate receive buffer. The filter masks are used to determine which bits in the identifiers are examined with the filters. A truthtable is shown in Table 22-2 that indicates how each bit in the identifier is compared to the masks and filters to determine if the message should be loaded into a receive buffer. The mask bit essentially determines which bits to apply the filter to. If any mask bit is set to a zero, then that bit will automatically be accepted regardless of the filter bit. Table 22-2: Filter/Mask Truth Table The acceptance filter looks at incoming messages for the EXIDEN bit to determine how to compare the identifiers. If the EXIDEN bit is clear, the message is a standard frame, and only filters with the EXIDEN bit clear are compared. If the EXIDEN bit is set, the message is an extended frame, and only filters with the EXIDEN bit set are compared. Configuring the RXM1:RXM0 bits to 01 or 10 can override the EXIDEN bit. As shown in the Receive Buffers Block Diagram, Figure 22-14, RXF0 and RXF1 filters with RXM0 mask are associated with RXB0. The filters RXF2, RXF3, RXF4, and RXF5 and the mask RXM1 are associated with RXB1. When a filter matches and a message is loaded into the receive buffer, the number of the filter that enabled the message reception is coded into a portion of the RXBnCON register. The RXB1CON register contains the FILHIT2:FILHIT0 bits. They are coded as shown in Table 22-3.

DS39522A-page 22-53 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 The coding of the RX0DBEN bit enables these 3 bits to be used similarly to the FILHIT bits and to distinguish a hit on filter RXF0 and RXF1 in either RXB0 or overrun into RXB1. 111 = Acceptance Filter 1 (RXF1) 110 = Acceptance Filter 0 (RXF0) 001 = Acceptance Filter 1 (RXF1) 000 = Acceptance Filter 0 (RXF0) If the RX0DBEN bit is clear, there are 6 codes corresponding to the 6 filters. If the RX0DBEN bit is set, there are 6 codes corresponding to the 6 filters plus 2 additional codes corresponding to RXF0 and RXF1 filters overrun to RXB1. If more than 1 acceptance filter matches, the FILHIT bits will encode the lowest binary value of the filters that matched. In other words, if filter 2 and filter 4 match, FILHIT will code the value for 2. This essentially prioritizes the acceptance filters with lower numbers having priority. Figure 22-16 shows a block diagram of the message acceptance filters.

The overrun error flag, RXnOVR and the EERIF bit will be set and the message in the MAB will be discarded. While in the overrun situation, the module will stay synchronized with the CAN bus and is able to transmit messages but will discard all incoming messages destined for the overrun buffer. If the RX0DBEN bit is clear, RXB1 and RXB0 operate independently. When this is the case, a message intended for RXB0 will not be diverted into RXB1 if RXB0 contains an unread message and the RX0OVFL bit will be set. If the RX0DBEN bit is set, the overrun for RXB0 is handled differently. If a valid message is received for RXB0 and RXFUL = 1 indicates that RXB0 is full and RXFUL = 0 indicates that RXB1 is empty, the message for RXB0 will be loaded into RXB1. An overrun error will not be generated for RXB0. If a valid message is received for RXB0 and RXFUL = 1 and RXFUL = 1 indicating that both RXB0 and RXB1 are full the message will be lost and an overrun will be indicated for RXB1. If the RX0DBEN bit is clear, there are 6 codes corresponding to the 6 filters. If the RX0DBEN bit is set, there are 6 codes corresponding to the 6 filters plus 2 additional codes corresponding to RXF0 and RXF1 filters overrun to RXB1. These codes are given in Table 22-4.

DS39522A-page 22-55 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.9.4 Effects of a RESET Upon any RESET the CAN module has to be initialized. All registers are set according to the reset values. The content of a received message is lost. The initialization is discussed in Section 22.8. 22.9.5 Baud Rate Setting All nodes on any particular CAN bus must have the same nominal bit rate. The Baud Rate is set once during the initialization mode of the CAN module. After that the baud Rate is not changed again. Section 22.12 explains the setting of the Baud Rate. 22.9.6 Receive Errors The CAN module will detect the following receive errors: • Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) Error • Bit Stuffing Error • Invalid message receive error. These receive errors do not generate an interrupt. However, the receive error counter is incremented by one in case one of these errors occur. The RXWARN bit indicates that the Receive Error Counter has reached the CPU Warning limit of 96 and an interrupt is generated. 22.9.6.1 Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) Error With the Cyclic Redundancy Check, the transmitter calculates special check bits for the bit sequence from the start of a frame until the end of the Data Field. This CRC sequence is transmitted in the CRC Field. The receiving node also calculates the CRC sequence using the same formula and performs a comparison to the received sequence. If a mismatch is detected, a CRC error has occurred and an Error Frame is generated. The message is repeated. The receive error interrupt counter is incremented by one. An Interrupt will only be generated if the error counter passes a threshold value. 22.9.6.2 Bit Stuffing Error If in between Start of Frame and CRC Delimiter 6 consecutive bits with the same polarity are detected, the bit-stuffing rule has been violated. A Bit-Stuffing error occurs and an Error Frame is generated. The message is repeated. No Interrupt will be generated upon this event. 22.9.6.3 Invalid Message Received Error If any type of error occurs during reception of a message, an error will be indicated by the IXRIF bit. This bit can be used (optionally with an interrupt) for autobaud detection with the device in listen-only mode. This error is not an indicator that any action needs to occur, but an indicator that an error has occurred on the CAN bus. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 55 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-56  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.9.6.4 Rules for Modifying the Receive Error Counter The Receive Error Counter is modified according to the following rules: • When the receiver detects an error, the Receive Error Counter is incremented by 1, except when the detected error was a Bit Error during the transmission of an Active Error Flag or an Overload Flag. • When the receiver detects a "dominant" bit as the first bit after sending an Error Flag the Receive Error Counter will be incremented by 8. • If a Receiver detects a Bit Error while sending an Active Error Flag or an Overload Flag the Receive Error Counter is incremented by 8. • Any Node tolerates up to 7 consecutive "dominant" bits after sending an Active Error Flag, Passive Error Flag or an Overload Flag. After detecting the 14th consecutive "dominant" bit (in case of an Active Error Flag or an Overload flag) or after detecting the 8th consecutive "dominant" following a passive error flag, and after each sequence of additional eight consecutive "dominant" bits every Transmitter increases its Transmission Error Counter and every Receiver increases its Receive Error Counter by 8. • After a successful reception of a message (reception without error up to the ACK slot and the successful sending of the ACK bit), the Receive Error Counter is decreased by one, if the Receive Error Counter was between 1 and 127. If the Receive Error Counter was 0 it will stay 0. If the Receive Error Counter was greater than 127, it will change to a value between 119 and 127. 22.9.7 Receive Interrupts Several Interrupts are linked to the message reception. The receive interrupts can be broken up into two separate groups: • Receive Error Interrupts • Receive interrupts 22.9.7.1 Receive Interrupt A message has been successfully received and loaded into one of the receive buffers. This interrupt is activated immediately after receiving the End of Frame (EOF) field. Reading the RXnIF flag will indicate which receive buffer caused the interrupt. Figure 22-17 depicts when the receive buffer interrupt flag RXnIF will be set. 22.9.7.2 Wake-up Interrupt The Wake-up Interrupt sequences are described in Section 22.7.2.2. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 56 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

This bit shows that an error condition occurred. The source of the error can be determined by checking the bits in the Communication Status Register COMSTAT. The bits in this register are related to receive and transmit errors. The following subsequences will show which flags are linked to the receive errors. 22.9.7.3.1 Invalid Message Received Interrupt If any type of error occurred during reception of the last message, an error will be indicated by the IXRIF bit. The specific error that occurred is unknown. This bit can be used (optionally with an interrupt) for autobaud detection with the device in listen only mode. This error is not an indicator that any action needs to occur, but an indicator that an error has occurred on the CAN bus. 22.9.7.3.2 Receiver Overrun Interrupt The RXnOVR bit indicates that an Overrun condition occurred. An overrun condition occurs when the Message Assembly Buffer (MAB) has assembled a valid received message, the message is accepted through the acceptance filters, however, the receive buffer associated with the filter is not clear of the previous message. The overflow error interrupt will be set and the message is discarded. While in the overrun situation, the module will stay synchronized with the CAN bus and is able to transmit and receive messages. 22.9.7.4 Receiver Warning Interrupt The RXWARN bit indicates that the Receive Error Counter has reached the CPU Warning limit of 96. When RXWARN transitions from a 0 to a 1, it will cause the Error Interrupt Flag ERRIF to become set. This bit cannot be manually cleared, as it should remain an indicator that the Receive Error Counter has reached the CPU Warning limit of 96. The RXWARN bit will become clear automatically if the Receive Error Counter becomes less than or equal to 95. The ERRIF bit can be manually cleared allowing the interrupt service routine to be exited without affecting the RXWARN bit. 22.9.7.5 Receiver Error Passive The RXBP bit indicates that the Receive Error Counter has exceeded the Error Passive limit of 127 and the module has gone to Error Passive state. When the RXBP bit transitions from a 0 to a 1, it will cause the Error Interrupt Flag to become set. The RXBP bit cannot be manually cleared, as it should remain an indicator that the Bus is in Error State Passive. The RXBP bit will become clear automatically if the Receive Error Counter becomes less than or equal to 127. The ERRIF bit can be manually cleared allowing the interrupt service routine to be exited without affecting the RXBP bit. 22.9.8 Receive Modes The RXM1:RXM0 bits will set special receive modes. Normally, these bits are set to 00 to enable reception of all valid messages as accepted by the acceptance filters. In this case, the determination of whether or not to receive standard or extended messages is determined by the EXIDEN bit in the Acceptance Filter Registers. If the RXM1:RXM0 bits are set to 01 or 10, the receiver will accept only messages with standard or extended identifiers respectively. If an acceptance filter has the EXIDEN bit such that it does not correspond with the RXM1:RXM0 mode, that acceptance filter is rendered useless. These 2 modes of RXM1:RXM0 bits can be used in systems where it is known that only standard or extended messages will be on the bus. If the RXM1:RXM0 bits are set to 11, the buffer will receive all messages regardless of the values of the acceptance filters. Also, if a message has an error before the End of Frame, that portion of the message assembled in the Message Assembly Buffer (MAB) before the error frame will be loaded into the buffer. This mode may have some value in debugging a CAN system. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 58 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39522A-page 22-59 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.9.8.1 Listen Only Mode If the receive only mode is activated, the module on the CAN bus is passive. That means that no error flags or acknowledge signals are sent. The error counters are deactivated in this state. The receive only mode can be used for detecting the baud rate on the CAN bus. For this it is necessary that there are at least two further nodes, which communicate with each other. The baud rate can be detected empirically by testing different values. This mode is also useful as a bus monitor without influencing the data traffic. 22.9.8.2 Error Recognition Mode The module can be set to ignore all errors and receive any message. The error recognition mode is activated by configuring the RXM1:RXM0 bits (RXBnCON registers) = ’11’. In this mode the data which is in the message assembly buffer until the error time is copied in the receive buffer and can be read via the CPU interface. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 59 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-60  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.10 Transmission This subsection describes how the CAN module is used for receiving CAN messages. 22.10.1 Real Time Communication and Transmit Message Buffering For an application to effectively transmit messages in real time, the CAN nodes must be able to dominate and hold the bus assuming that nodes messages are of a high enough priority to win arbitration on the bus. If a node only has 1 transmission buffer, it must transmit a message, then release the bus while the CPU reloads the buffer. If a node has two transmission buffers, one buffer could be transmitting while the second buffer is being reloaded. However, the CPU would need to maintain tight tracking of the bus activity to ensure that the second buffer is reloaded before the first message completes. Typical applications require three transmit message buffers. Having three buffers, one buffer can be transmitting, the second buffer can be ready to transmit as soon as the first is complete, and the third can be reloaded by the CPU. This eases the burden of the software to maintain synchronization with the bus (see Figure 22-18). Additionally, having three buffers allows some degree of prioritizing of the outgoing messages. For example, the application software may have a message enqueued in the second buffer while it is working on the third buffer. The application may require that the message going into the third buffer is of higher importance than the one already enqueued. If only 2 buffers are available, the enqueued message would have to be deleted and replaced with the third. The process of deleting the message may mean losing control of the bus. With 3 buffers, both the second and the third message can be enqueued, and the module can be instructed that the third message is higher priority than the second. The third message will be the next one sent followed by the second. 22.10.2 Transmit Message Buffers The CAN module has three transmit buffers. Each of the three buffers occupies 14 bytes of data. Eight of the bytes are the maximum 8 bytes of the transmitted message. Five bytes hold the standard and extended identifiers and other message arbitration information. The last byte is a control byte associated with each message. The information in this byte determines the conditions under which the message will be transmitted and indicates status of the transmission of the message. The TXBnIF bit will be set and the TXREQ bit will be clear, indicating that the message buffer has completed a transmission. The CPU will then load the message buffer with the contents of the message to be sent. At a minimum, the standard identifier register TXBnSIDH and TXBnSIDL must be loaded. If data bytes are present in the message, the TXBnDm registers are loaded. If the message is to use extended identifiers, the TXBnEIDm registers are loaded and the EXIDEN bit is set. Prior to sending the message, the user must initialize the TXIE bit to enable or disable an interrupt when the message is sent. The user must also initialize the transmit priority. Figure 22-18 shows a block diagram of the transmit buffers.

DS39522A-page 22-61 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.10.3 Transmit Message Priority Transmit priority is a prioritization within each node of the pending transmittable messages. Prior to sending the SOF (Start of Frame), the priorities of all buffers ready for transmission are compared. The transmit buffer with the highest priority will be sent first. For example, if transmit buffer 0 has a higher priority setting than transmit buffer 1, buffer 0 will be sent first. If two buffers have the same priority setting, the buffer with the highest address will be sent. For example, if transmit buffer 1 has the same priority setting as transmit buffer 0, buffer 1 will be sent first. There are 4 levels of transmit priority. If TXPRI1:TXPRI0 for a particular message buffer is set to 11, that buffer has the highest priority. If TXPRI1:TXPRI0 for a particular message buffer is set to 10 or 01, that buffer has an intermediate priority. If TXPRI1:TXPRI0 for a particular message buffer is 00, that buffer has the lowest priority. 22.10.4 Message Transmission To initiate transmitting the message, the TXREQ bit must be set. The CAN bus module resolves any timing conflicts between setting of the TXREQ bit and the SOF time, ensuring that if the priority was changed, it is resolved correctly before SOF. When TXREQ is set the TXABT, TXLARB and TXERR flag bits will be cleared. Setting TXREQ bit does not actually start a message transmission, it flags a message buffer as enqueued for transmission. Transmission will start when the module detects an available bus for SOF. The module will then begin transmission on the message which has been determined to have the highest priority. If the transmission completes successfully on the first try, the TXREQ bit will clear and an interrupt will be generated if TXIE was set. If the message fails to transmit, one of the other condition flags will be set, the TXREQ bit will remain set indicating that the message is still pending for transmission. If the message tried to transmit but encountered an error condition, the TXERR bit will be set. In this case, the error condition can also cause an interrupt. If the message tried to transmit but lost arbitration, the TXLARB bit will be set. In this case, no interrupt is available to signal the loss of arbitration. 22.10.5 Transmit Message Aborting The system can also abort a message by clearing the TXREQ bit associated with each message buffer. Setting the ABAT bit will request an abort of all pending messages. If the message has not yet started transmission, or if the message started but is interrupted by loss of arbitration or an error; the abort will be processed. The abort is indicated when the module sets the TXABT bit, and the TXnIF flag is not automatically set. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 61 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-62  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

CAN CAN 22 22.10.6 Transmit Boundary Conditions The module handles transmit commands which are not necessarily synchronized to the CAN bus message framing time. 22.10.6.1 Clearing TXREQ bit as a Message Starts The TXREQ bit can be cleared just when a message is starting transmission, with the intent of aborting the message. If the message is not being transmitted, the TXABT bit will be set, indicating that the Abort was successfully processed. When the user clears the TXREQ bit and the TXABT bit is not set two cycles later, the message has already begun transmission. If the message is being transmitted, the abort is not immediately processed, at some point later, the TXnIF Interrupt Flag or the TXABT bit is set. If transmission has begun the message will only be aborted if either an error or a loss of arbitration occurs. 22.10.6.2 Setting TXABT bit as a Message Starts Setting the ABAT bit will abort all pending transmit buffers and has the function of clearing all of the TXREQ bits for all buffers. The boundary conditions are the same as clearing the TXREQ bit. 22.10.6.3 Clearing TXREQ bit as a Message Completes The TXREQ bit can be cleared when a message is just about to successfully complete transmission. Even if the TXREQ bit is cleared by the Data bus a short time before it will be cleared by the successful transmission of the message, the TXnIF flag will still be set due to the successful transmission. 22.10.6.4 Setting TXABT bit as a Message Completes The boundary conditions are the same as clearing the TXREQ bit. 22.10.6.5 Clearing TXREQ bit as a Message Loses Transmission The TXREQ bit can be cleared when a message is just about to be lost to arbitration or an error. If the TXREQ signal falls before the loss of arbitration signal or error signal, the result will be like clearing TXREQ during transmission. When the arbitration is lost or the error is set, the TXABT bit will be set, as it will see that an error has occurred while transmitting, and that the TXREQ bit was not set. If the TXREQ bit falls after the arbitration signal has entered the block, the result will be like clearing TXREQ during an inactive transmit time. The TXABT bit will be set. 22.10.6.6 Setting TXABT bit as a Message Loses Transmission The boundary conditions are the same as clearing the TXREQ bit. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 63 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-64  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.10.7 Effects of a RESET Upon any RESET the CAN module has to be initialized. All registers are set according to the reset values. The content of a received message is lost. The initialization is discussed in Section 22.8. 22.10.8 Baud Rate Setting All nodes on any particular CAN bus must have the same nominal bit rate. The baud rate is set once during the initialization phase of the CAN module. After that, the baud rate is not changed again. Section 22.12 explains the setting of the Baud Rate. 22.10.9 Transmit Message Aborting The system can also abort a message by clearing the TXREQ bit associated with each message buffer. Setting the ABAT bit will request an abort of all pending messages (see Figure 22-21). A queued message is aborted by clearing the TXREQ bit. Aborting a queued message is illustrated in Figure 22-20. If the message has not yet started transmission, or if the message started but is interrupted by loss of arbitration or an error; the abort will be processed. The abort is indicated when the module sets the TXABT bits. If the message has started to transmit, it will attempt to transmit the current message fully (see Figure 22-22). If the current message is transmitted fully, and is not lost to arbitration or an error, the TXABT bit will not be set, because the message was transmitted successfully. Likewise, if a message is being transmitted during an abort request, and the message is lost to arbitration (see Figure 22-23) or an error, the message will not be re-transmitted, and the TXABT bit will be set, indicating that the message was successfully aborted.

Figure 22-23:Loss of Arbitration During Transmission 22.10.10 Transmission Errors The CAN module will detect the following transmission errors: • Acknowledge Error • Form Error • Bit Error These transmission errors will not necessarily generate an interrupt but are indicated by the transmission error counter. However, each of these errors will cause the transmission error counter to be incremented by one. Once the value of the error counter exceeds the value of 96, the ERRIF and the TXWARN bit are set. Once the value of the error counter exceeds the value of 96 an interrupt is generated and the TXWARN bit in the error flag register is set.

CAN CAN 22 22.10.10.1 Acknowledge Error In the Acknowledge Field of a message, the transmitter checks if the Acknowledge Slot (which it has sent out as a recessive bit) contains a dominant bit. If not, no other node has received the frame correctly. An Acknowledge Error has occurred and the message has to be repeated. No Error Frame is generated. 22.10.10.2 Form Error lf a transmitter detects a dominant bit in one of the four segments including End of Frame, lnterframe Space, Acknowledge Delimiter or CRC Delimiter; then a Form Error has occurred and an Error Frame is generated. The message is repeated. 22.10.10.3 Bit Error A Bit Error occurs if a transmitter sends a dominant bit and detects a recessive bit. In the case where the transmitter sends a recessive bit and a dominant bit is detected during the Arbitration Field and the Acknowledge Slot, no bit error is generated because normal arbitration is occurring. 22.10.10.4 Rules for Modifying the Transmit Error Counter The Transmit Error Counter is modified according to the following rules: • When the Transmitter sends an error flag the Transmit Error Counter is increased by 8 with the following exceptions. In these two exceptions, the Transmit Error Counter is not changed. - If the transmitter is "error passive" and detects an acknowledgment error because of not detecting a "dominant" ACK, and does not detect a "dominant" bit while sending a Passive Error Flag. - If the Transmitter sends an Error Flag because of a bit-stuffing Error occurred during arbitration whereby the Stuffbit is located before the RTR bit, and should have been "recessive", and has been sent as "recessive" but monitored as "dominant". • If a Transmitter detects a Bit Error while sending an Active Error Flag or an Overload Flag the Transmit Error Counter is increased by 8. • Any Node tolerates up to 7 consecutive "dominant" bits after sending an Active Error Flag, Passive Error Flag or an Overload Flag. After detecting the 14th consecutive "dominant" bit (in case of an Active Error Flag or an Overload flag) or after detecting the 8th consecutive "dominant" following a passive error flag, and after each sequence of eight additional consecutive "dominant" bits, every Transmitter increases its Transmission Error Counter and every Receiver increases its Receive Error Counter by 8. • After the successful transmission of a message (getting an acknowledge and no error until End of Frame is finished) the Transmit Error Counter is decreased by one unless it was already 0. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 67 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-68  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.10.11 Transmission Interrupts There are several interrupts linked to the message transmission. The transmission interrupts can be broken up into two groups: • Transmission interrupts • Transmission error interrupts 22.10.11.1 Transmit Interrupt At least one of the three transmit buffers is empty (not scheduled) and can be loaded to schedule a message for transmission. Reading the TXIF flags will indicate which transmit buffer is available and caused the interrupt. 22.10.11.2 Transmission Error Interrupts A transmission error interrupt will be indicated by the ERRIF flag. This flag shows that an error condition occurred. The source of the error can be determined by checking the error flags in the Communication Status register COMSTAT. The flags in this register are related to receive and transmit errors. The following subsequences will show which flags are linked to the transmit errors. 22.10.11.3 Transmitter Warning Interrupt The TXWARN bit indicates that the Transmit Error Counter has reached the CPU Warning limit of 96. When this bit transitions from a 0 to a 1, it will cause the Error Interrupt Flag to become set. The TXWARN bit cannot be manually cleared, as it should remain as an indicator that the Transmit Error Counter has reached the CPU Warning limit of 96. The TXWARN bit will become clear automatically if the Transmit Error Counter becomes less than or equal to 95. The ERRIF flag can be manually cleared allowing the interrupt service routine to be exited without affecting the TXWARN bit. 22.10.11.4 Transmitter Error Passive The TXEP bit indicates that the Transmit Error Counter has exceeded the Error Passive limit of 127 and the module has gone to Error Passive state. When this bit transitions from a 0 to a 1, it will cause the Error Interrupt Flag to become set. The TXEP bit cannot be manually cleared, as it should remain as an indicator that the Bus is in Error State Passive. The TXEP bit will become clear automatically if the Transmit Error Counter becomes less than or equal to 127. The ERRIF flag can be manually cleared allowing the interrupt service routine to be exited without affecting the TXEP bit. 22.10.11.5 Bus Off Interrupt The TXBO bit indicates that the Transmit Error Counter has exceeded 255 and the module has gone to Bus Off state. When this bit transitions from a 0 to a 1, it will cause the Error Interrupt Flag to become set. The TXBO bit cannot be manually cleared, as it should remain as an indicator that the Bus is Off. The ERRIF flag can be manually cleared allowing the interrupt service routine to be exited without affecting the TXBO bit. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 68 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39522A-page 22-69 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.11 Error Detection The CAN protocol provides sophisticated error detection mechanisms. The following errors can be detected. These errors are either receive or transmit errors. Receive errors are: • Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) Error (see Section 22.9.6.1) • Bit Stuffing Bit Error (see Section 22.9.6.2) • lnvalid Message Received Error (see Section 22.9.6.2) The transmit errors are • Acknowledge Error (see Section 22.10.10.1) • Form Error (see Section 22.10.10.2) • Bit Error (see Section 22.10.10.3) 22.11.1 Error States Detected errors are made public to all other nodes via Error Frames. The transmission of the erroneous message is aborted and the frame is repeated as soon as possible. Furthermore, each CAN node is in one of the three error states "error active", "error passive" or "bus off" according to the value of the internal error counters. The error-active state is the usual state where the bus node can transmit messages and active Error Frames (made of dominant bits) without any restrictions. In the error-passive state, messages and passive Error Frames (made of recessive bits) may be transmitted. The bus-off state makes it temporarily impossible for the station to participate in the bus communication. During this state, messages can neither be received nor transmitted. 22.11.2 Error Modes and Error Counters The CAN controller contains the two error counters Receive Error Counter (RXERRCNT) and Transmit Error Counter (TXERRCNT). The values of both counters can be read by the CPU. These counters are incremented or decremented according to the CAN bus specification. The CAN controller is error active if both error counters are below the error passive limit of 128. It is error passive if at least one of the error counters equals or exceeds 128. It goes bus off if the Transmit Error Counter equals or exceeds the bus off limit of 256. The device remains in this state, until the bus off recovery sequence is finished, which is 128 consecutive 11 recessive bit times. Additionally, there is a error state warning flag bit, EWARN, which is set if at least one of the error counters equals or exceeds the error warning limit of 96. EWARN is reset if both error counters are less than the error warning limit. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 69 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-70  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. Figure 22-25:Error Modes 22.11.3 Error Flag Register The values in the error flag register indicate which error(s) caused the Error Interrupt Flag. The RXXOVR Error Flags have a different function than the other Error Flag bits in this register. The RXXOVR bits must be cleared in order to clear the ERRIF interrupt flag. The other Error Flag bits in this register will cause the ERRIF interrupt flag to become set as the value of the Transmit and Receive Error Counters crosses a specific threshold. Clearing the ERRIF interrupt flag in these cases will allow the interrupt service routine to be exited without recursive interrupt occurring. It may be desirable to disable specific interrupts after they have occurred once to stop the device from interrupting repeatedly as the Error Counter moves up and down in the vicinity of a threshold value.

DS39522A-page 22-71 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.12 Baud Rate Setting All nodes on any particular CAN bus must have the same nominal bit rate. The CAN bus uses NRZ coding which does not encode a clock. Therefore the receivers independent clock must be recovered by the receiving nodes and synchronized to the transmitters clock. In order to set the baud rate the following bits have to be initialized: • Synchronization Jump Width (see Section 22.12.6.2) • Baud rate prescaler (see Section 22.12.2) • Phase segments (see Section 22.12.4) • Length determination of Phase segment 2 (see Section 22.12.4) • Sample Point (see Section 22.12.5) • Propagation segment bits (see Section 22.12.3) 22.12.1 Bit Timing As oscillators and transmission time may vary from node to node, the receiver must have some type of PLL synchronized to data transmission edges to synchronize and maintain the receiver clock. Since the data is NRZ coded, it is necessary to include bit-stuffing to ensure that an edge occurs at least every 6 bit times, to maintain the Digital Phase Lock Loop (DPLL) synchronization. Bus timing functions executed within the bit time frame, such as synchronization to the local oscillator, network transmission delay compensation, and sample point positioning, are defined by the programmable bit timing logic of the DPLL. All controllers on the CAN bus must have the same baud rate and bit length. However, different controllers are not required to have the same master oscillator clock. At different clock frequencies of the individual controllers, the baud rate has to be adjusted by adjusting the number of time quanta in each segment. The Nominal Bit Time can be thought of as being divided into separate non-overlapping time segments. These segments are shown in Figure 22-26. • Synchronization segment (Sync Seg) • Propagation time segment (Prop Seg) • Phase buffer segment 1 (Phase1 Seg) • Phase buffer segment 2 (Phase2 Seg) The time segments and also the nominal bit time are made up of integer units of time called time quanta or TQ. By definition, the Nominal Bit Time has a minimum of 8 TQ and a maximum of 25 TQ. Also, by definition the minimum nominal bit time is 1 usec, corresponding to a maximum 1 MHz bit rate. Figure 22-26:CAN Bit Timing Input Signal Sync Prop Segment Phase Segment 1 Phase Segment 2 Sync Sample Point TQ 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 71 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-72  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.12.2 Prescaler Setting There is a programmable prescaler, with integral values ranging at least from 1 to 64, in addition to a fixed divide by 2 for clock generation. The Time Quanta (TQ) is a fixed unit of time derived from the oscillator period. Time quanta is defined as: Equation 22-1:Time Quanta for Clock Generation Example 22-1:Calculation for Fosc = 16 MHz Example 22-2:Calculation for Fosc = 32 MHz Example 22-3:Calculation for Fosc = 32 MHz and 25 TQ The frequencies of the oscillators in the different nodes must be coordinated in order to provide a system-wide specified time quantum. This means that all oscillators must have a Tosc that is a integral divisor of TQ. 22.12.3 Propagation Segment This part of the bit time is used to compensate physical delay times within the network. These delay times consist of the signal propagation time on the bus line and the internal delay time of the nodes. The delay is calculated as the round trip from transmitter to receiver as twice the signal's propagation time on the bus line, the input comparator delay, and the output driver delay. The Propagation Segment can be programmed from 1 TQ to 8 TQ by setting the PRSE2:PRSEG0 bits. 22.12.4 Phase Segments The phase segments are used to optimally locate the sampling of the received bit within the transmitted bit time. The sampling point is between Phase1 Segment and Phase2 Segment. These segments are lengthened or shortened by resynchronization. The end of the Phase1 Segment determines the sampling point within a bit period. The segment is programmable from 1 TQ to 8 TQ. Phase2 Segment provides delay to the next transmitted data transition. The segment is programmable from 1 TQ to 8 TQ or it may be defined to be equal to the greater of Phase1 Segment or the Information Processing Time. The phase segment 1 is initialized by setting bits SEG1PH2:SEG1PH0, and phase segment 2 is initialized by setting SEG2PH2:SEG2PH0.

DS39522A-page 22-73 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.12.5 Sample Point The sample point is the point of time at which the bus level is read and interpreted as the Value of that respective bit. The location is at the end of Phase Segment 1. If the bit timing is slow and contains many TQ, it is possible to specify multiple sampling of the bus line at the sample point. The level determined by the CAN bus then corresponds to the result from the majority decision of three values. The majority samples are taken at the sample point and twice before with a distance of TQ/2. The CAN module allows to chose between sampling three times at the same point or once at the same point. This is done by setting or clearing the SAM bit (BRG2CON register). 22.12.6 Synchronization To compensate for phase shifts between the oscillator frequencies of the different bus stations, each CAN controller must be able to synchronize to the relevant signal edge of the incoming signal. When an edge in the transmitted data is detected, the logic will compare the location of the edge to the expected time (Synchronous Segment). The circuit will then adjust the values of Phase1 Segment and Phase2 Segment. There are 2 mechanisms used to synchronize. 22.12.6.1 Hard Synchronization Hard Synchronization is only done whenever there is a 'recessive' to 'dominant' edge during Bus Idle, indicating the start of a message. After hard synchronization, the bit time counters are restarted with Synchronous Segment. Hard synchronization forces the edge which has caused the hard synchronization to lie within the synchronization segment of the restarted bit time. Due to the rules of synchronization, if a hard synchronization is done, there will not be a resynchronization within that bit time. 22.12.6.2 Resynchronization As a result of resynchronization Phase Segment 1 may be lengthened or Phase Segment 2 may be shortened. The amount of lengthening or shortening (SJW1:SJW0) of the phase buffer segment has an upper bound given by the resynchronization jump width bits. The value of the synchronization jump width will be added to Phase Segment 1 or subtracted from Phase Segment 2. The resynchronization jump width is programmable between 1 TQ and 4 TQ. Clocking information will only be derived from transitions of recessive to dominant bus states. The property that only a fixed maximum number of successive bits have the same value ensures resynchronizing a bus unit to the bit stream during a frame (e.g. bit-stuffing). The Phase Error of an edge is given by the position of the edge relative to Synchronous Segment, measured in Time Quanta. The Phase Error is defined in magnitude of TQ as follows: • e = 0 if the edge lies within Synchronous Segment. • e > 0 if the edge lies before the Sample Point. • e < 0 if the edge lies after the Sample Point of the previous bit. If the magnitude of the phase error is less than or equal to the programmed value of the resynchronization jump width, the effect of a resynchronization is the same as that of a hard synchronization, If the magnitude of the phase error is larger than the resynchronization jump width, and if the phase error is positive, then Phase Segment 1 is lengthened by an amount equal to the resynchronization jump width. If the magnitude of the phase error is larger than the resynchronization jump width, and if the phase error is negative, then Phase Segment 2 is shortened by an amount equal to the resynchronization jump width. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 73 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-74  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. Figure 22-27:Lengthening a Bit Period Figure 22-28:Shortening a Bit Period 22.12.7 Programming Time Segments Some requirements for programming of the time segments: Propagation Segment + Phase1 Segment > = Phase2 Segment Phase2 Segment > Synchronous Jump Width Example 22-4:Segment Time Typically, the sampling of the bit should take place at about 60 - 70% of the bit time, depending on the system parameters. Synchronous Segment = 1 TQ; Propagation Segment = 2 TQ; So setting Phase Segment 1=7TQ would place the sample at 10 TQ after the transition. This would leave 6 TQ for Phase Segment 2. Since Phase Segment 2 is 6, by the rules, the SJW1:SJW0 bits could be set to the maximum of 4 TQ. However, normally a large synchronization jump width is only necessary when the clock generation of the different nodes is inaccurate or unstable, such as using ceramic resonators. So a synchronization jump width of 1 is typically enough.

DS39522A-page 22-75 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.13 Interrupts The module has several sources of interrupts. Each of these interrupts can be individually enabled or disabled. A PIR register contains interrupt flags. A PIE register contains the enables for the 8 main interrupts. A special set of read-only bits in the CANSTAT register (ICODE2:ICODE0) can be used in combination with a jump table for efficient handling of interrupts. All interrupts have one source, with the exception of the Error Interrupt. Any of the Error Interrupt sources can set the Error Interrupt Flag. The source of the Error Interrupt can be determined by reading the Communication Status (COMSTAT) register. The interrupts can be broken up into two categories: receive and transmit interrupts. The receive related interrupts are: • Receive Interrupt (see Section 22.9.7.1) • Wake-up Interrupt (see Section 22.9.7.2) • Receiver Overrun Interrupt (see Section 22.9.7.3.2) • Receiver Warning Interrupt (see Section 22.9.7.4) • Receiver Error Passive Interrupt (Section 22.9.7.5) The Transmit related interrupts are • Transmit interrupt (see Section 22.10.11.1) • Transmitter Warning Interrupt (Section 22.10.11.3) • Transmitter Error Passive Interrupt (see Section 22.10.11.4) • Bus Off Interrupt (see Section 22.10.11.5) 22.13.1 Interrupt Acknowledge Interrupts are directly associated with one or more status flags in either a PIR or COMSTAT registers. Interrupts are pending as long as one of the corresponding flags is set. The flags in the registers must be reset within the interrupt handler in order to handshake the interrupt. A flag can not be cleared if the respective condition still prevails, with the exception being interrupts that are caused by a certain value being reached in one of the Error Counter Registers. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 75 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-76  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.13.2 The ICODE Bits The ICODE2:ICODE0 bits are a set of read-only bits designed for efficient handling of interrupts via a jump table. The ICODE2:ICODE0 bits can only display one interrupt at a time because the interrupt bits are multiplexed into this register. Therefore, the pending interrupt with the highest priority and enabled interrupt is reflected in the ICODE2:ICODE0 bits. Once the highest priority interrupt flag has been cleared, the next highest priority interrupt code is reflected in the ICODE2:ICODE0 bits. An interrupt code for a corresponding interrupt can only be displayed if both its interrupt flag and interrupt enable are set. Table 22-5 describes the operation of the ICODE2:ICODE0 bits.

DS39522A-page 22-77 Section 22. CAN CAN 22 22.14 Timestamping The CAN module will generate a signal that can be selected to a timer capture input whenever a valid frame has been accepted. Because the CAN specification defines a frame to be valid if no errors occurred before the EOF field has been transmitted successfully, the timer signal will be generated right after the EOF. A pulse of one bit time is generated. 22.15 CAN Module I/O The CAN bus module communicates on up to 3 I/O pins. There are 1 or 2 transmit pins and 1 receive pin. These pins are multiplexed with normal digital I/O functions of the device. The CIOCON register controls the functions of the I/O pins. When the module is in the configuration mode, module disable mode or loopback mode, the I/O pins revert to a Port I/O function. When the module is active, the TX0 pin is always dedicated to the CAN output function. If a single ended driver is needed, then only the TX0 pin is required. If a differential driver is required, then the TX1 pin must be enabled by setting the TX1EN bit. If the bus requires an active pull-up on the line, the ENDRHI bit should be cleared. The TRIS bits associated with the transmit pins are overridden by the CAN bus modes. If the CAN module expects an output to be driving, it will be regardless of the state of the TRIS bit associated with that pin. The output buffers for the TX0 and TX1 pin are designed such that the rise and fall rate of the output signal is approximately equal as is necessary for differential drive. The module can receive the CAN input on one digital input line. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 77 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39522A-page 22-78  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 22.16 Design Tips Question 1: My CAN module does not seem to work after a RESET.

The Comparator module’s inputs do not require very large drive, and therefore the drive capability of this Voltage Reference is limited. The Voltage Reference is a 16-tap resistor ladder network that provides a selectable Voltage Reference. The resistor ladder is segmented to provide two ranges of VREF values and has a power-down function to conserve power when the reference is not being used. The VRCON register controls the operation of the reference (shown in Register 23-1). The block diagram is given in Figure 23-1. Within each range, the 16 steps are monotonic (i.e., each increasing code will result in an increasing output).

The equations used to calculate the output of the Voltage Reference are as follows: if VRR = 1: VREF = (VR3:VR0 / 24) x VDD if VRR = 0: VREF = (VDD x 1/4) + (VR3:VR0 / 32) x VDD The settling time of the Voltage Reference must be considered when changing the VREF output. Example 23-1 shows an example of how to configure the Voltage Reference for an output voltage of 1.25V with VDD = 5.0V. Generally the VREF and VDD of the system will be known and you need to determine the value to load into VR3:VR0. Equation 23-1 shows how to calculate the VR3:VR0 value. There will be some error since VR3:VR0 can only be an integer, and the VREF and VDD levels must be chosen so that the result is not greater then 15.

DS39523A-page 23-5 Section 23. Comparator Voltage Reference Comparator Voltage Reference 23 23.4 Voltage Reference Accuracy/Error The full range of VSS to VDD cannot be realized due to the construction of the module. The transistors on the top and bottom of the resistor ladder network (Figure 23-1) keep VREF from approaching VSS or VDD. The Voltage Reference is VDD derived and therefore, the VREF output changes with fluctuations in VDD. The absolute accuracy of the Voltage Reference can be found in the Electrical Specifications parameter D311. 23.5 Operation During SLEEP When the device wakes up from SLEEP through an interrupt or a Watchdog Timer time-out, the contents of the VRCON register are not affected. To minimize current consumption in SLEEP mode, the Voltage Reference should be disabled. 23.6 Effects of a RESET A device RESET disables the Voltage Reference by clearing the VREN bit (VRCON<7>). This RESET also disconnects the reference from the VREF pin by clearing the VROEN bit (VRCON<6>) and selects the high voltage range by clearing the VRR bit (VRCON<5>). The VREF value select bits, VRCON<3:0>, are also cleared. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 5 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39523A-page 23-6  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 23.7 Connection Considerations The Voltage Reference Module operates independently of the Comparator module. The output of the reference generator may be connected to the VREF pin if the corresponding TRIS bit is set and the VROEN bit (VRCON<6>) is set. Enabling the Voltage Reference output onto the VREF pin with an input signal present will increase current consumption. Configuring the VREF as a digital output with VREF enabled will also increase current consumption. The VREF pin can be used as a simple D/A output with limited drive capability. Due to the limited drive capability, a buffer must be used in conjunction with the Voltage Reference output for external connections to VREF. Figure 23-2 shows an example buffering technique.

When the analog input at VIN+ is less than the analog input VIN–, the output of the comparator is a digital low level. When the analog input at VIN+ is greater than the analog input VIN–, the output of the comparator is a digital high level. The shaded areas of the output of the comparator (shown in Figure 24-2) represent the uncertainty due to input offsets and response time. 24.5 Comparator Reference An external or internal reference signal may be used depending on the comparator operating mode. The analog signal that is present at VIN– is compared to the signal at VIN+, and the digital output of the comparator is adjusted accordingly (Figure 24-2).

Comparator Comparator 24 24.5.1 External Reference Signal When external voltage references are used, the comparator module can be configured to have the comparators operate from the same or different reference sources. The reference signal must be between VSS and VDD, and can be applied to either pin of the comparator(s). 24.5.2 Internal Reference Signal The comparator module also allows the selection of an internally generated voltage reference for the comparators. The “Comparator Voltage Reference” section contains a detailed description of the Voltage Reference Module that provides this signal. The internal reference signal is used when the comparators are in mode CM2:CM0 = 110 (Figure 24-1). In this mode, the internal voltage reference is applied to the VIN+ input of both comparators. The internal voltage reference may be used in any comparator mode. The voltage reference is output to the VREF pin. Any comparator input pin may be connected externally to the VREF pin. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 7 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39525A-page 24-8  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 24.6 Comparator Response Time Response time is the minimum time, after selecting a new reference voltage or input source, before the comparator output is guaranteed to have a valid level. If the internal reference is changed, the maximum settling time of the internal voltage reference must be considered when using the comparator outputs. Otherwise the maximum response time of the comparators should be used. 24.7 Comparator Outputs The comparator outputs are read through the CMCON register. These bits are read only. The comparator outputs may also be directly output to the I/O pins. When CM2:CM0 = 011, multiplexors in the output path of the I/O pins will switch and the output of each pin will be the unsynchronized output of the comparator. The uncertainty of each of the comparators is related to the input offset voltage and the response time given in the specifications. Figure 24-3 shows the comparator output block diagram. The TRIS bits will still function as the output enable/disable for the I/O pins while in this mode. Figure 24-3: Comparator Output Block Diagram Note 1: When reading the Port register, all pins configured as analog inputs will read as a ‘0’. Pins configured as digital inputs will convert an analog input according to the Schmitt Trigger input specification. 2: Analog levels on any pin that is defined as a digital input may cause the input buffer to consume more current than is specified.

Comparator Comparator 24 24.8 Comparator Interrupts The comparator interrupt flag is set whenever the comparators value changes relative to the last value loaded into CMxOUT bits. Software will need to maintain information about the status of the output bits, as read from CMCON<7:6>, to determine the actual change that has occurred. The CMIF bit is the comparator interrupt flag. The CMIF bit must be cleared. Since it is also possible to set this bit, a simulated interrupt may be initiated. The CMIE bit, the PEIE/GIEL bit, and the GIE/GIEH bit must be set to enable the interrupt. If any of these bits are clear, an interrupt from the comparator module will not occur, though the CMIF bit will still be set if an interrupt condition occurs. Table 24-1 shows the state of the comparator interrupt bits to enable an interrupt to vector to the interrupt vector address. If these conditions are not met, the comparator module will set the CMIF bit, but the program execution will not go to the interrupt vector address. The user, in the interrupt service routine, can clear the interrupt in the following manner: a) Any read or write of the CMCON register. This will load the CMCON register with the new value with the CMxOUT bits. b) Clear the CMIF flag bit. An interrupt condition will continue to set the CMIF flag bit. Reading CMCON will end the interrupt condition, and allow the CMIF flag bit to be cleared. Table 24-1: How State of Interrupt Control Bits Determine Action After Comparator Trip (CMIF is Set) 24.9 Comparator Operation During SLEEP When a comparator is active and the device is placed in SLEEP mode, the comparator remains active and the interrupt is functional if enabled. This interrupt will wake-up the device from SLEEP mode when enabled. While the comparator is powered up, each comparator that is operational will consume additional current as shown in the comparator specifications. To minimize power consumption while in SLEEP mode, turn off the comparators (CM2:CM0 = 111), before entering SLEEP. If the device wakes up from SLEEP, the contents of the CMCON register are not affected. 24.10 Effects of a RESET A device RESET forces the CMCON register to its reset state. This forces the comparator module to be in the comparator reset mode, CM2:CM0 = 000. This ensures that all potential inputs are analog inputs. Device current is minimized when analog inputs are present at RESET time. The comparators will be powered down disabled during the RESET interval.

Since the analog pins are connected to a digital output, they have reverse biased diodes to VDD and VSS. The analog input therefore, must be between VSS and VDD. If the input voltage deviates from this range by more than 0.6V in either direction, one of the diodes is forward biased and a latch-up may occur. A maximum source impedance of 10 kΩ is recommended for the analog sources.

The analog input charges a sample and hold capacitor. The output of the sample and hold capacitor is the input into the converter. The converter then generates a digital result of this analog level via successive approximation. This A/D conversion of the analog input signal results in a corresponding 10-bit digital number. The analog reference voltages (positive and negative supply) are software selectable to either the device’s supply voltages (AVDD, AVss) or the voltage level on the AN3/VREF+ and AN2/VREFpins. The A/D converter has the unique feature of being able to convert while the device is in SLEEP mode. The A/D module has four registers. These registers are: • A/D Result High Register (ADRESH) • A/D Result Low Register (ADRESL) • A/D Control Register0 (ADCON0) • A/D Control Register1 (ADCON1) The ADCON0 register, shown in Register 25-1, controls the operation of the A/D module. The ADCON1 register, shown in Register 25-2, configures the functions of the port pins. The port pins can be configured as analog inputs (AN3 and AN2 can also be the voltage references) or as digital I/O. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

When the A/D conversion is complete, the result is loaded into this A/D result register pair (ADRESH:ADRESL), the GO/DONE bit (ADCON0) is cleared, and A/D interrupt flag bit, ADIF, is set. The block diagram of the A/D module is shown in Figure 25-1. After the A/D module has been configured, the signal on the selected channel must be acquired before the conversion is started. The analog input channels must have their corresponding TRIS bits selected as inputs. To determine acquisition time, see Subsection 25.4 “A/D Acquisition Requirements.” After this acquisition time has elapsed, the A/D conversion can be started. The following steps should be followed for doing an A/D conversion: 1. Configure the A/D module: • Configure analog pins, voltage reference, and digital I/O (ADCON1) • Select A/D input channel (ADCON0) • Select A/D conversion clock (ADCON0) • Turn on A/D module (ADCON0) 2. Configure A/D interrupt (if desired): • Clear the ADIF bit • Set the ADIE bit • Set/Clear the ADIP bit • Set the GIE/GIEH or PEIE/GIEL bit 3. Wait the required acquisition time. 4. Start conversion: • Set the GO/DONE bit (ADCON0) 5. Wait for the A/D conversion to complete, by either: • Polling for the GO/DONE bit to be cleared or the ADIF bit to be set, or • Waiting for the A/D interrupt 6. Read A/D Result register pair (ADRESH:ADRESL): clear the ADIF bit, if required. 7. For next conversion, go to step 1 or step 2 as required. Figure 25-2 shows the conversion sequence and the terms that are used. Acquisition time is the time that the A/D module’s holding capacitor is connected to the external voltage level. When the GO bit is set, the conversion time of 12 TAD is started. The sum of these two times is the sampling time. There is a minimum acquisition time to ensure that the holding capacitor is charged to a level that will give the desired accuracy for the A/D conversion.

When A/D conversion is started (setting the GO bit). A/D conversion complete, result is loaded in ADRES register.

The analog input model is shown in Figure 25-3. The source impedance (RS) and the internal sampling switch (RSS) impedance directly affect the time required to charge the capacitor CHOLD. The sampling switch (RSS) impedance varies over the device voltage (VDD), Figure 25-3. The source impedance affects the offset voltage at the analog input (due to pin leakage current). The maximum recommended impedance for analog sources is 2.5 kΩ. As the impedance is decreased, the acquisition time may be decreased. After the analog input channel is selected (changed), this acquisition must pass before the conversion can be started. To calculate the minimum acquisition time, Equation 25-1 may be used. This equation assumes that 1/2 LSb error is used (1024 steps for the A/D). The 1/2 LSb error is the maximum error allowed for the A/D to meet its specified resolution. Equation 25-1: Acquisition Time Equation 25-2: A/D Minimum Charging Time Example 25-1 shows the calculation of the minimum required acquisition time TACQ. This calculation is based on the following application system assumptions. CHOLD = 120 pF RS = 2.5 kΩ Conversion Error ≤ 1/2 LSb VDD = 5V → RSS =7kΩ (see graph in Figure 25-3) Temperature = 50° C (system max.) VHOLD = 0V @ time = 0 Example 25-1: Calculating the Minimum Required Acquisition Time (Case 1) Note: When the conversion is started, the holding compacitor is disconnected from the input pin. TACQ equals Amplifier Settling Time (TAMP) plus Holding Capacitor Charging Time (TC) plus Temperature Coefficient (TCOFF) TACQ = TAMP + TC + TCOFF VHOLD = (VREF - (VREF/2048)) • (1 - e(-TC/CHOLD(RIC + RSS + RS))) or Tc = -(120 pF)(1 kΩ + RSS + RS) ln(1/2047) TACQ = TAMP + TC + TCOFF Temperature coefficient is only required for temperatures > 25°C.

Compatible 10-bit A/D Converter Compatible 10-bit A/D Converter 25 25.6 Configuring Analog Port Pins The ADCON1 and TRIS registers control the operation of the A/D port pins. The port pins that are desired as analog inputs must have their corresponding TRIS bits set (input). If the TRIS bit is cleared (output), the digital output level (VOH or VOL) will be converted. After a device RESET, pins that are multiplexed with analog inputs will be configured as an analog input. The corresponding TRIS bit will be set. The A/D operation is independent of the state of the CHS2:CHS0 bits and the TRIS bits. Note 1: When reading the port register, any pin configured as an analog input channel will read as cleared (a low level). Pins configured as digital inputs, will convert an analog input. Analog levels on a digitally configured input will not affect the conversion accuracy. 2: Analog levels on any pin that is defined as a digital input (including the AN7:AN0 pins), may cause the input buffer to consume current that is out of the devices specification. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39526A-page 25-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 25.7 A/D Conversions Example 25-3 shows how to perform an A/D conversion. The port pins are configured as analog inputs. The analog references (VREF+ and VREF-) are the device AVDD and AVSS. The A/D interrupt is enabled, and the A/D conversion clock is FRC. The conversion is performed on the AN0 pin (channel 0). The result of the conversion is left justified. Clearing the GO/DONE bit during a conversion will abort the current conversion. The A/D result register pair will NOT be updated with the partially completed A/D conversion sample. That is, the ADRESH:ADRESL registers will continue to contain the value of the last completed conversion (or the last value written to the ADRESH:ADRESL registers). After the A/D conversion is aborted, a 2TAD wait is required before the next acquisition is started. After this 2TAD wait, acquisition on the selected channel is automatically started. Example 25-3: A/D Conversion Figure 25-4: A/D Conversion TAD Cycles Note: The GO/DONE bit should NOT be set in the same instruction that turns on the A/D, due to the required acquisition time.

The A/D module allows users to make the trade-off of conversion speed to resolution. Regardless of the resolution required, the acquisition time is the same. To speed up the conversion, the clock source of the A/D module may be switched so that the TAD time violates the minimum specified time (see electrical specification parameter 130). Once the TAD time violates the minimum specified time, all the following A/D result bits are not valid (see A/D Conversion Timing in the Electrical Specifications section). The clock sources may only be switched between the three oscillator versions (cannot be switched from/to RC). The equation to determine the time before the oscillator can be switched is as follows: Since the TAD is based from the device oscillator, the user must use some method (a timer, software loop, etc.) to determine when the A/D oscillator may be changed. Example 25-4 shows a comparison of time required for a conversion with 4-bits of resolution, versus the 10-bit resolution conversion. The example is for devices operating at 20 MHz (the A/D clock is programmed for 32TOSC), and assumes that immediately after 6TAD, the A/D clock is programmed for 2TOSC. The 2TOSC violates the minimum TAD time since the last 6 bits will not be converted to correct values.

This register pair is 16-bits wide. The A/D module gives the flexibility to left or right justify the 10-bit result in the 16-bit result register. The A/D Format Select bit (ADFM) controls this justification. Figure 25-6 shows the operation of the A/D result justification. The extra bits are loaded with ‘0’s’. When the A/D module is disabled these registers may be used as two general purpose 8-bit registers.

This requires that the A/D clock source be set to RC (ADCS2:ADCS0 = x11). When the RC clock source is selected, the A/D module waits one instruction cycle before starting the conversion. This allows the SLEEP instruction to be executed, which eliminates all internal digital switching noise from the conversion. When the conversion is completed, the GO/DONE bit will be cleared and the result is loaded into the ADRESH:ADRESL registers. If the A/D interrupt is enabled, the device will wake-up from SLEEP. If the A/D interrupt is not enabled, the A/D module will be turned off, although the ADON bit will remain set. When the A/D clock source is another clock option (not RC), a SLEEP instruction will cause the present conversion to be aborted and the A/D module to be turned off (to conserve power), though the ADON bit will remain set. Turning off the A/D places the A/D module in its lowest current consumption state. 25.9 Effects of a RESET A device RESET forces all registers to their RESET state. This forces the A/D module to be turned off, and any conversion is aborted. All pins that are multiplexed with analog inputs will be configured as an analog input. The corresponding TRIS bits will be set. The value that is in the ADRESH:ADRESL registers is not initialized from a Power-on Reset. The ADRESH:ADRESL registers will contain unknown data after a Power-on Reset. Note: For the A/D module to operate in SLEEP, the A/D clock source must be set to RC (ADCS2:ADCS0 = x11). To allow the conversion to occur during SLEEP, ensure the SLEEP instruction immediately follows the instruction that sets the GO/DONE bit. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 16 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Compatible 10-bit A/D Converter Compatible 10-bit A/D Converter 25 25.10 A/D Accuracy/Error In systems where the device frequency is low, use of the A/D RC clock is preferred. At moderate to high frequencies, TAD should be derived from the device oscillator. For a given range of analog inputs, the output digital code will be the same. This is due to the quantization of the analog input to a digital code. Quantization error is typically ± 1/2 LSb and is inherent in the analog to digital conversion process. The only way to reduce quantization error is to increase the resolution of the A/D converter. Offset error measures the first actual transition of a code versus the first ideal transition of a code. Offset error shifts the entire transfer function. Offset error can be calibrated out of a system or introduced into a system, through the interaction of the total leakage current and source impedance at the analog input. Gain error measures the maximum deviation of the last actual transition and the last ideal transition, adjusted for offset error. This error appears as a change in slope of the transfer function. The difference in gain error to full scale error, is that full scale does not take offset error into account. Gain error can be calibrated out in software. Linearity error refers to the uniformity of the code changes. Linearity errors cannot be calibrated out of the system. Integral non-linearity error measures the actual code transition versus the ideal code transition, adjusted by the gain error for each code. Differential non-linearity measures the maximum actual code width versus the ideal code width. This measure is unadjusted. The maximum pin leakage current is specified in Electrical Specifications parameter D060. TAD must not violate the minimum and should be minimized to reduce inaccuracies due to noise and sampling capacitor bleed off. In systems where the device will enter SLEEP mode after the start of the A/D conversion, the RC clock source selection is required. In this mode, the digital noise from the modules in SLEEP are stopped. This method gives high accuracy. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 17 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39526A-page 25-18  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 25.11 Connection Considerations If the input voltage exceeds the rail values (VSS or VDD) by greater than 0.3V, then the accuracy of the conversion is out of specification. An external RC filter is sometimes added for anti-aliasing of the input signal. The R component should be selected to ensure that the total source impedance is kept under the 2.5 kΩ recommended specification. Any external components connected (via hi-impedance) to an analog input pin (capacitor, zener diode, etc.) should have very little leakage current at the pin. 25.12 Transfer Function The ideal transfer function of the A/D converter is as follows: the first transition occurs when the analog input voltage (VAIN) is 1 LSb (or Analog VREF / 1024) (Figure 25-7).

What can I do to improve accuracy? Answer 1: 1. Make sure you are meeting all of the timing specifications. If you are turning the module off and on, there is a minimum delay you must wait before taking a sample. If you are changing input channels, there is a minimum delay you must wait for this as well, and finally there is TAD, which is the time selected for each bit conversion. This is selected in ADCON0 and should be between 1.6 and 6 µs. If TAD is too short, the result may not be fully converted before the conversion is terminated, and if TAD is made too long, the voltage on the sampling capacitor can decay before the conversion is complete. These timing specifications are provided in the “Electrical Specifications” section. See the device data sheet for device specific information. 2. Often the source impedance of the analog signal is high (greater than 1 kOhms), so the current drawn from the source to charge the sample capacitor can affect accuracy. If the input signal does not change too quickly, try putting a 0.1 µF capacitor on the analog input. This capacitor will charge to the analog voltage being sampled and supply the instantaneous current needed to charge the 120 pF internal holding capacitor. 3. In systems where the device frequency is low, use of the A/D clock derived from the device oscillator is preferred...this reduces, to a large extent, the effects of digital switching noise. In systems where the device will enter SLEEP mode after start of A/D conversion, the RC clock source selection is required.This method gives the highest accuracy. Question 2: After starting an A/D conversion may I change the input channel (for my next conversion)? Answer 2: After the holding capacitor is disconnected from the input channel, typically 100 ns after the GO bit is set, the input channel may be changed. Question 3: Do you know of a good reference on A/D’s? Answer 3: A good reference for understanding A/D conversions is the “Analog-Digital Conversion Handbook” third edition, published by Prentice Hall (ISBN 0-13-03-2848-0). Question 4: I migrated my code from a PIC18CXX8 device with 10-bit A/D to another device with a 10-bit A/D (such as a PIC18CXX2) and the A/D does not seem to operate the same. What’s going on? Answer 4: The 10-bit A/D on the PIC18CXX2 device is the compatible 10-bit A/D module. This module has its ADCON bits in the same locations as the PICmicro’s Mid-Range 10-bit A/D module. The standard PIC18CXXX 10-bit A/D module (as found on the PIC18CXX8 device) has optimized the bit locations to ease configuration of the module. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 20 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The analog input charges a sample and hold capacitor. The output of the sample and hold capacitor is the input into the converter. The converter then generates a digital result of this analog level via successive approximation. This A/D conversion of the analog input signal results in a corresponding 10-bit digital number. The analog reference voltages (positive and negative supply) are software selectable to either the device’s supply voltages (AVDD, AVss) or the voltage level on the AN3/VREF+ and AN2/VREFpins. The A/D converter has the unique feature of being able to convert while the device is in SLEEP mode. The A/D module has five registers. These registers are: • A/D Result High Register (ADRESH) • A/D Result Low Register (ADRESL) • A/D Control Register0 (ADCON0) • A/D Control Register1 (ADCON1) • A/D Control Register2 (ADCON2) The ADCON0 register, shown in Register 26-1, selects the input channel of the A/D module. The ADCON1 register, shown in Register 26-2, configures the functions of the port pins and the Voltage Reference for the A/D module. The port pins can be configured as analog inputs (AN3 and AN2 can also be the Voltage References) or as digital I/O. ADCON2 selects the A/D conversion clock source and the format of the A/D result. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

When the A/D conversion is complete, the result is loaded into this A/D result register pair (ADRESH:ADRESL), the GO/DONE bit (ADCON0 register) is cleared, and A/D interrupt flag bit, ADIF, is set. The block diagram of the A/D module is shown in Figure 26-1. After the A/D module has been configured, the signal on the selected channel must be acquired before the conversion is started. The analog input channels must have their corresponding TRIS bits selected as inputs. To determine acquisition time, see Subsection 26.4 “A/D Acquisition Requirements.” After this acquisition time has elapsed, the A/D conversion can be started. The following steps should be followed for doing an A/D conversion: 1. Configure the A/D module: • Configure analog pins, Voltage Reference, and digital I/O (ADCON1) • Select A/D input channel (ADCON0) • Select A/D conversion clock (ADCON0) • Turn on A/D module (ADCON0) 2. Configure A/D interrupt (if desired): • Clear the ADIF bit • Set the ADIE bit • Set/Clear the ADIP bit • Set the GIE/GIEH or PEIE/GIEL bit 3. Wait the required acquisition time. 4. Start conversion: • Set the GO/DONE bit (ADCON0) 5. Wait for the A/D conversion to complete, by either: • Polling for the GO/DONE bit to be cleared or the ADIF bit to be set, or • Waiting for the A/D interrupt 6. Read A/D Result register pair (ADRESH:ADRESL): clear the ADIF bit, if required. 7. For next conversion, go to step 1 or step 2 as required. Figure 26-2 shows the conversion sequence, and the terms that are used. Acquisition time is the time that the A/D module’s holding capacitor is connected to the external voltage level. When the GO bit is set, the conversion time of 12 TAD is started. The sum of these two times is the sampling time. There is a minimum acquisition time to ensure that the holding capacitor is charged to a level that will give the desired accuracy for the A/D conversion.

The analog input model is shown in Figure 26-3. The source impedance (RS) and the internal sampling switch (RSS) impedance directly affect the time required to charge the capacitor CHOLD. The sampling switch (RSS) impedance varies over the device voltage (VDD), Figure 26-3. The source impedance affects the offset voltage at the analog input (due to pin leakage current). The maximum recommended impedance for analog sources is 2.5 kΩ. As the impedance is decreased, the acquisition time may be decreased. After the analog input channel is selected (changed), this acquisition must pass before the conversion can be started. To calculate the minimum acquisition time, Equation 26-1 may be used. This equation assumes that 1/2 LSb error is used (1024 steps for the A/D). The 1/2 LSb error is the maximum error allowed for the A/D to meet its specified resolution. Equation 26-1: Acquisition Time Equation 26-2: A/D Minimum Charging Time Example 26-1 shows the calculation of the minimum required acquisition time TACQ. This calculation is based on the following application system assumptions. CHOLD = 120 pF RS = 2.5 kΩ Conversion Error ≤ 1/2 LSb VDD = 5V → RSS =7kΩ (see graph in Figure 26-3) Temperature = 50° C (system max.) VHOLD = 0V @ time = 0 Example 26-1: Calculating the Minimum Required Acquisition Time (Case 1) Note: When the conversion is started, the holding capacitor is disconnected from the input pin. TACQ equals Amplifier Settling Time (TAMP) plus Holding Capacitor Charging Time (TC) plus Temperature Coefficient (TCOFF) TACQ = TAMP + TC + TCOFF VHOLD = (VREF - (VREF/2048)) • (1 - e(-TC/CHOLD(RIC + RSS + RS))) or Tc = -(120 pF)(1 kΩ + RSS + RS) ln(1/2047) TACQ = TAMP + TC + TCOFF Temperature coefficient is only required for temperatures > 25°C.

The A/D conversion requires 11.5TAD per 10-bit conversion. The source of the A/D conversion clock is software selectable. The seven possible options for TAD are: • 2TOSC • 4TOSC • 8TOSC • 16TOSC • 32TOSC • 64TOSC • Internal A/D RC oscillator For correct A/D conversions, the A/D conversion clock (TAD) must be selected to ensure a minimum TAD time of 1.6 µs as shown in Electrical Specifications parameter 130.

The port pins that are desired as analog inputs must have their corresponding TRIS bits set (input). If the TRIS bit is cleared (output), the digital output level (VOH or VOL) will be converted. After a device RESET, pins that are multiplexed with analog inputs will be configured as an analog input. The corresponding TRIS bit will be set. The A/D operation is independent of the state of the CHS2:CHS0 bits and the TRIS bits. Note 1: When reading the port register, any pin configured as an analog input channel will read as cleared (a low level). Pins configured as digital inputs, will convert an analog input. Analog levels on a digitally configured input will not affect the conversion accuracy. 2: Analog levels on any pin that is defined as a digital input (including the AN7:AN0 pins), may cause the input buffer to consume current that is out of the devices specification. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39527A-page 26-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 26.7 A/D Conversions Example 26-3 shows how to perform an A/D conversion. The port pins are configured as analog inputs. The analog references (VREF+ and VREF-) are the device AVDD and AVSS. The A/D interrupt is enabled, and the A/D conversion clock is FRC. The conversion is performed on the AN0 pin (channel 0). The result of the conversion is left justified. Clearing the GO/DONE bit during a conversion will abort the current conversion. The A/D result register pair will NOT be updated with the partially completed A/D conversion sample. That is, the ADRESH:ADRESL registers will continue to contain the value of the last completed conversion (or the last value written to the ADRESH:ADRESL registers). After the A/D conversion is aborted, a 2TAD wait is required before the next acquisition is started. After this 2TAD wait, acquisition on the selected channel is automatically started.

The A/D module allows users to make the trade-off of conversion speed to resolution. Regardless of the resolution required, the acquisition time is the same. To speed up the conversion, the clock source of the A/D module may be switched so that the TAD time violates the minimum specified time (Electrical Specifications parameter 130). Once the TAD time violates the minimum specified time, all the following A/D result bits are not valid (see A/D Conversion Timing in the Electrical Specifications section). The clock sources may only be switched between the three oscillator versions (cannot be switched from/to RC). The equation to determine the time before the oscillator can be switched is as follows: Since the TAD is based from the device oscillator, the user must use some method (a timer, software loop, etc.) to determine when the A/D oscillator may be changed. Example 26-4 shows a comparison of time required for a conversion with 4-bits of resolution, versus the 10-bit resolution conversion. The example is for devices operating at 20 MHz (the A/D clock is programmed for 32TOSC), and assumes that immediately after 6TAD, the A/D clock is programmed for 2TOSC. The 2TOSC violates the minimum TAD time since the last 6 bits will not be converted to correct values.

This register pair is 16-bits wide. The A/D module gives the flexibility to left or right justify the 10-bit result in the 16-bit result register.

This requires that the A/D clock source be set to RC (ADCS2:ADCS0 = x11). When the RC clock source is selected, the A/D module waits one instruction cycle before starting the conversion. This allows the SLEEP instruction to be executed, which eliminates all internal digital switching noise from the conversion. When the conversion is completed, the GO/DONE bit will be cleared and the result is loaded into the ADRESH:ADRESL registers. If the A/D interrupt is enabled, the device will wake-up from SLEEP. If the A/D interrupt is not enabled, the A/D module will be turned off, although the ADON bit will remain set. When the A/D clock source is another clock option (not RC), a SLEEP instruction will cause the present conversion to be aborted and the A/D module to be turned off (to conserve power), though the ADON bit will remain set. Turning off the A/D places the A/D module in its lowest current consumption state. 26.9 Effects of a RESET A device RESET forces all registers to their RESET state. This forces the A/D module to be turned off, and any conversion is aborted. All pins that are multiplexed with analog inputs will be configured as an analog input. The corresponding TRIS bits will be set. The value that is in the ADRESH:ADRESL registers is not initialized from a Power-on Reset. The ADRESH:ADRESL registers will contain unknown data after a Power-on Reset. Note: For the A/D module to operate in SLEEP, the A/D clock source must be set to RC (ADCS2:ADCS0 = x11). To allow the conversion to occur during SLEEP, ensure the SLEEP instruction immediately follows the instruction that sets the GO/DONE bit. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 16 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

At moderate to high frequencies, TAD should be derived from the device oscillator. For a given range of analog inputs, the output digital code will be the same. This is due to the quantization of the analog input to a digital code. Quantization error is typically ± 1/2 LSb and is inherent in the analog to digital conversion process. The only way to reduce quantization error is to increase the resolution of the A/D converter. Offset error measures the first actual transition of a code versus the first ideal transition of a code. Offset error shifts the entire transfer function. Offset error can be calibrated out of a system or introduced into a system, through the interaction of the total leakage current and source impedance at the analog input. Gain error measures the maximum deviation of the last actual transition and the last ideal transition, adjusted for offset error. This error appears as a change in slope of the transfer function. The difference in gain error to full scale error, is that full scale does not take offset error into account. Gain error can be calibrated out in software. Linearity error refers to the uniformity of the code changes. Linearity errors cannot be calibrated out of the system. Integral non-linearity error measures the actual code transition versus the ideal code transition, adjusted by the gain error for each code. Differential non-linearity measures the maximum actual code width versus the ideal code width. This measure is unadjusted. The maximum pin leakage current is specified in Electrical Specifications parameter D060. TAD must not violate the minimum and should be minimized to reduce inaccuracies due to noise and sampling capacitor bleed off. In systems where the device will enter SLEEP mode after the start of the A/D conversion, the RC clock source selection is required. In this mode, the digital noise from the modules in SLEEP are stopped. This method gives high accuracy. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 17 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39527A-page 26-18  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 26.11 Connection Considerations If the input voltage exceeds the rail values (VSS or VDD) by greater than 0.3V, then the accuracy of the conversion is out of specification. An external RC filter is sometimes added for anti-aliasing of the input signal. The R component should be selected to ensure that the total source impedance is kept under the 2.5 kΩ recommended specification. Any external components connected (via hi-impedance) to an analog input pin (capacitor, zener diode, etc.) should have very little leakage current at the pin. 26.12 Transfer Function The ideal transfer function of the A/D converter is as follows: the first transition occurs when the analog input voltage (VAIN) is 1 LSb (or Analog VREF / 1024) (Figure 26-7).

What can I do to improve accuracy? Answer 1: 1. Make sure you are meeting all of the timing specifications. If you are turning the module off and on, there is a minimum delay you must wait before taking a sample. If you are changing input channels, there is a minimum delay you must wait for this as well, and finally there is TAD, which is the time selected for each bit conversion. This is selected in ADCON0 and should be between 1.6 and 6 µs. If TAD is too short, the result may not be fully converted before the conversion is terminated, and if TAD is made too long, the voltage on the sampling capacitor can decay before the conversion is complete. These timing specifications are provided in the “Electrical Specifications” section. See the device data sheet for device specific information. 2. Often the source impedance of the analog signal is high (greater than 1 kOhms), so the current drawn from the source to charge the sample capacitor can affect accuracy. If the input signal does not change too quickly, try putting a 0.1 µF capacitor on the analog input. This capacitor will charge to the analog voltage being sampled and supply the instantaneous current needed to charge the 120 pF internal holding capacitor. 3. In systems where the device frequency is low, use of the A/D clock derived from the device oscillator is preferred...this reduces, to a large extent, the effects of digital switching noise. In systems where the device will enter SLEEP mode after start of A/D conversion, the RC clock source selection is required.This method gives the highest accuracy. Question 2: After starting an A/D conversion may I change the input channel (for my next conversion)? Answer 2: After the holding capacitor is disconnected from the input channel, typically 100 ns after the GO bit is set, the input channel may be changed. Question 3: Do you know of a good reference on A/D’s? Answer 3: A good reference for understanding A/D conversions is the “Analog-Digital Conversion Handbook” third edition, published by Prentice Hall (ISBN 0-13-03-2848-0). Question 4: I migrated my code from a PIC18CXX2 device with 10-bit A/D to another device with a 10-bit A/D (such as a PIC18CXX8) and the A/D does not seem to operate the same. What’s going on? Answer 4: The 10-bit A/D on the PIC18CXX2 device is the compatible 10-bit A/D module. This module has its ADCON bits in the same locations as the PICmicros Mid-Range 10-bit A/D module. The standard PIC18CXXX 10-bit A/D module (as found on the PIC18CXX8 device) has optimized the bit locations to ease configuration of the module. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 20 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

A window of operation for the application can be created where the application software can do "housekeeping tasks" before the device voltage exits the valid operating range. This can be done using the Low Voltage Detect module. This module is software programmable circuitry, where a device voltage trip point can be specified. When the voltage of the device becomes lower than the specified point, an interrupt flag is set. If the interrupt is enabled, the program execution will branch to the interrupt vector address, and the software can then respond to that interrupt source. The Low Voltage Detect circuitry is completely under software control. This allows the circuitry to be "turned off" by the software, which minimizes the current consumption for the device. Figure 27-1 shows a possible application voltage curve (typically for batteries). Over time the device voltage decreases. When the device voltage equals voltage VA, the LVD logic generates an interrupt. This occurs at time TA. The application software then has until the device voltage is no longer in valid operating range to have shut down the system. Voltage point VB is the minimum valid operating voltage specification. This gives a time TB. The total time for shutdown is TB - TA.

DS39528A-page 27-3 Section 27. Low Voltage Detect Low Voltage Detect 27 Figure 27-2 shows the block diagram for the LVD module. A comparator uses an internally generated reference voltage as the set point. When the selected tap output of the device voltage crosses the set point (is lower then), the LVDIF bit is set. Each node in the resister divider represents a “trip point” voltage. The “trip point” voltage is the minimum supply voltage level at which the device can operate before the LVD module asserts an interrupt. When the supply voltage is equal to the trip point, the voltage tapped off of the resistor array is equal to the voltage generated by the internal voltage reference module. The comparator then generates an interrupt signal setting the LVDIF bit. This voltage is software programmable to any one of 16 values (see Figure 27-2). The trip point is selected by programming the LVDL3:LVDL0 bits (LVDCON<3:0>).

DS39528A-page 27-5 Section 27. Low Voltage Detect Low Voltage Detect 27 27.3 Operation The LVD module is useful to add robustness into the application. The device can monitor the state of the device voltage. When the device voltage enters the voltage window near the lower limit of the valid operating voltage range, the device can save values to ensure a "clean" shutdown through the brown-out. Depending on the power source for the device voltage, the voltage normally decreases relatively slowly. This means that the LVD module does not need to be constantly operating. To decrease the current requirements, the LVD circuitry only needs to be enabled for short periods, where the voltage is checked. After doing the check, the LVD module may be disabled. Each time that the LVD module is enabled, the circuitry requires some time to stabilize. After the circuitry has stabilized, all status flags may be cleared. The module will then indicate the proper state of the system. Steps to setup the LVD module: 1. Write the value to the LVDL3:LVDL0 bits (LVDCON register) which selects the desired LVD Trip Point. 2. Ensure that LVD interrupts are disabled (the LVDIE bit is cleared or the GIE bit is cleared). 3. Enable the LVD module (set the LVDEN bit in the LVDCON register). 4. Wait for the LVD module to stabilize (the IRVST bit to become set). 5. Clear the LVD interrupt flag which may have falsely become set while the LVD module stabilized (clear the LVDIF bit). 6. Enable the LVD interrupt (set the LVDIE and the GIE bits). Figure 27-3 shows some waveforms that the LVD module may be used to detect. Figure 27-3: Low Voltage Detect Waveforms Note: The system design should be done to ensure that the application software is given adequate time to save values before the device exits the valid operating range or is forced into a Brown-out Reset. .

If these circuits are disabled (lower power consumption), the reference voltage circuit requires stabilization time before a low voltage condition can be reliably detected. This time is specified in electrical specification parameter # 36. The low-voltage interrupt flag will not be enabled until a stable reference voltage is reached. Refer to the timing diagram in Figure 27-3. 27.3.2 Current Consumption When the module is enabled the LVD comparator and voltage divider are enabled and will consume static current. The voltage divider can be tapped from multiple places in the resistor array. Total current consumption when enabled is specified in electrical specification parameter D022B (typically < 50 µA). 27.4 Operation During SLEEP When enabled, the LVD circuitry continues to operate during SLEEP. If the device voltage crosses the trip point, the LVDIF bit will be set and the device will wake-up from SLEEP. Device execution will continue from the interrupt vector address, if interrupts have been globally enabled. 27.5 Effects of a RESET A device RESET forces all registers to their RESET state. This forces the LVD module to be turned off. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39528A-page 27-7 Section 27.

Answer 1: Ensure that the LVD circuitry is stable before enabling the LVD interrupt. This is done by monitoring the IRVST bit. Once the IRVST bit is set, the LVDIF bit should be cleared and then the LVDIE bit may be set. Question 2: How can I reduce the current consumption of the module? Answer 2: Low Voltage Detect is used to monitor the device voltage. The power source is normally a battery that ramps down slowly. This means that the LVD circuity can be disabled for most of the time, and only enabled occasionally to do the device voltage check. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 8 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The Watchdog Timer may be used to return to operating mode, or to cause a controller RESET if the program begins to behave erratically. This enhances the overall operation of the system. The Watchdog Timer (WDT) is a free running on-chip RC oscillator that does not require any external components. The block diagram is shown in Figure 28-1. This RC oscillator is separate from the device RC oscillator of the OSC1/CLKI pin. This means that the WDT will run, even if the clock on the OSC1/CLKI and OSC2/CLKO pins has been stopped, for example, by execution of a SLEEP instruction. The Watchdog Timer (WDT) is enabled/disabled by a device configuration bit. If the WDT is enabled, software execution may not disable this function. When the WDTEN configuration bit is cleared, the SWDTEN bit enables/disables the operation of the WDT. Figure 28-1: Watchdog Timer Block Diagram The SLEEP function halts controller activity and reduces current consumption to a minimum. The SLEEP mode is a reduced power state, where it is possible to halt almost all activity in the controller. In this mode, power consumption is very low, allowing for long term operation from battery powered applications. Normal operation may be resumed when any of several interrupts occur, the WDT times out, or a RESET occurs.

If the device is in SLEEP mode, a WDT time-out causes the device to wake-up and continue with normal operation. This is known as a WDT wake-up. The WDT can be permanently enabled by setting the WDTEN configuration bit. If the WDT configuration bit disables the WDT, then software can be used to enable/disable the WDT through setting/clearing the SWDTEN bit. 28.3.1 WDT Period The WDT has a nominal time-out period of 18 ms with no postscaler (see the “Electrical Specifications” section, parameter 31). The time-out period varies with temperature, VDD and process variations from part to part (see DC parameters in the “Electrical Specifications” section). If longer time-outs are desired, a postscaler with a division ratio of up to 1:128 can be assigned to the WDT. Thus, time-out periods of up to 2.3 seconds can be realized. The postscaler assignment is specified at time of device programming through the device configuration bits. The CLRWDT and SLEEP instructions clear the WDT counter and the WDT postscaler which prevents it from timing out and generating a device RESET. When a CLRWDT instruction is executed and the prescaler is assigned to the WDT, the prescaler count will be cleared, but the prescaler assignment is not changed. The TO bit in the RCON register will be cleared upon a Watchdog Timer time-out (WDT Reset and WDT wake-up). 28.3.2 Clearing the WDT Counter The CLRWDT instruction will force the count value of the WDT counter to ’0’. When the WDT is disabled (WDTEN configuration bit = ’0’ and SWDTEN is clear), the WDT counter is forced to ’0’ and the internal WDT clock source is disabled. Then, when the WDT is enabled (setting the SWDTEN bit when previously cleared), the WDT counter starts from a value of ’0’. 28.3.3 WDT Considerations It should also be taken in account that under worst case conditions (VDD = Minimum, Temperature = Maximum, WDT postscaler = Maximum), it may take several seconds before a WDT time-out occurs. 28.3.4 Effects of a RESET When a device RESET occurs, the Watchdog Timer counter and postscaler counter are cleared and the TO bit is set.

DS39529A-page 28-5 Section 28. Watchdog Timer and SLEEP Mode and Sleep Mode Watchdog Timer 28 28.4 SLEEP (Power-Down) Mode SLEEP (Power-down) mode is the lowest current consumption state and is entered by executing a SLEEP instruction. The device oscillator is turned off, so no system clocks are occurring in the device. If enabled, the Watchdog Timer will be cleared but keeps running, the PD bit in the RCON register is cleared, the TO bit is set, and the oscillator driver is turned off. The I/O ports maintain the status they had before the SLEEP instruction was executed (driving high, low, or hi-impedance). For lowest current consumption in this mode, all I/O pins should be either at VDD or VSS, with no external circuitry drawing current from the I/O pin and modules that are specified to have a delta SLEEP current, should be disabled. I/O pins that are hi-impedance inputs should be pulled high or low externally, to avoid switching currents caused by floating inputs. The contribution from on-chip pull-ups on PORTB should be considered. During SLEEP, the MCLR pin must be at a valid high level. Some features of the device consume a delta current. These are enabled/disabled by device configuration bits. These features include the Watchdog Timer (WDT), LVD, and Brown-out Reset (BOR) circuitry modules. 28.4.1 Wake-up from SLEEP There are several ways to wake the controller from SLEEP. The WDT can wake-up the controller when it times out. A RESET will wake the controller and cause the program to restart, and interrupts (from peripherals or external sources) will wake the controller from SLEEP. The device can wake-up from SLEEP through one of the following events: 1. Any device RESET, such as MCLR pin = VIL, VDD = VBOR (if enabled). 2. Watchdog Timer Wake-up (if WDT was enabled). 3. Any peripheral module which can set its interrupt flag while in SLEEP, such as: - An external INT pin - Change on Port pin - Comparators - A/D - Timer1 - Timer3 - LVD - MSSP - Capture - PSP read or write - CCP1 - CCP2 - Addressable USART - PORTB Interrupt on Change - External Interrupts - Parallel Slave Port - Voltage Reference (bandgap) - WDT The first event will RESET the device upon wake-up. However, the latter two events will wake the device and then resume program execution. The TO and PD bits in the RCON register can be used to determine the cause of device RESET. The PD bit, which is set on power-up, is cleared when SLEEP is invoked. The TO bit is cleared if WDT time-out occurred (and caused a wake-up). When the SLEEP instruction is being executed, the next instruction (PC + 2) is pre-fetched. For the device to wake-up through an interrupt event, the corresponding interrupt enable bit must be set (enabled). Wake-up is regardless of the state of the GIE bit. If the GIE bit is clear (disabled), the device continues execution at the instruction after the SLEEP instruction. If the GIE bit is set (enabled), the device executes the instruction after the SLEEP instruction and then branches to the interrupt address. In cases where the execution of the instruction following SLEEP is not desirable, the user should have a NOP after the SLEEP instruction. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 5 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39529A-page 28-6  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 28.4.2 Wake-up Using Interrupts When interrupts are globally disabled (GIE cleared) and any interrupt source has both its interrupt enable bit and interrupt flag bit set, one of the following events will occur: • If an interrupt condition (interrupt flag bit and interrupt enable bits are set) occurs before the execution of a SLEEP instruction, the SLEEP instruction will complete as a NOP. Therefore, the WDT and WDT postscaler will not be cleared, the TO bit will not be set and PD bit will not be cleared. • If the interrupt condition occurs during or after the execution of a SLEEP instruction, the device will immediately wake-up from SLEEP. The SLEEP instruction will be completely executed before the wake-up. Therefore, the WDT and WDT postscaler will be cleared, the TO bit will be set and the PD bit will be cleared. Even if the flag bits were checked before executing a SLEEP instruction, it may be possible for flag bits to become set before the SLEEP instruction completes. To determine whether a SLEEP instruction executed, test the PD bit. If the PD bit is set, the SLEEP instruction was executed as a NOP. To ensure that the WDT is clear, a CLRWDT instruction should be executed before a SLEEP instruction.

The interrupt source must have its interrupt enable flag set, but GIE does not need to be set. If GIE is clear, the controller will wake without vectoring to an interrupt. If GIE is set, the controller will vector to an interrupt. If interrupt priority is not used, all interrupt priority bits are set. If interrupt priority is used (any interrupt priority bit is cleared), GIEH controls high priority interrupts and GIEL controls low priority interrupts. Table 28-2 shows the response to the interrupt flag bits depending on the state of the interrupt enable and priority bits.

With the oscillator off, the OSC1 and OSC2 signals will stop oscillating. Since all the transistor switching currents have been removed, SLEEP mode achieves the lowest current consumption of the device (only leakage currents). Enabling any on-chip feature that will operate during SLEEP will increase the current consumed during SLEEP. The user can wake from SLEEP through external RESET, Brown-out Reset (if enabled), external interrupt, Watchdog Timer time-out or a peripheral interrupt.

Watchdog Timer and SLEEP Mode and Sleep Mode Watchdog Timer 28 28.4.4 Wake-up Delays Several factors affect how much time the controller requires to return to operating mode from SLEEP. These include oscillator mode and the use of the PLL. The Oscillator Start-up Timer, OST, counts 1024 oscillator cycles to allow the oscillator to start-up and stabilize before allowing system clocks to resume. The OST is not enabled for RC and EC oscillator modes. 28.4.4.1 Oscillator With PLL Enabled Time-out Sequence After Wake-up The Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) provides a 1024 oscillator cycle delay after a wake-up from SLEEP has occurred. 1024 oscillator cycles are not a sufficient amount of time to allow the PLL to lock at high frequencies. An additional TPLL time is required to allow the PLL to lock before allowing system clocks to resume. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 9 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39529A-page 28-10  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 28.4.5 Peripheral Module Operation During SLEEP Table 28-4 gives an overview of which devices operate during SLEEP.

The device is not operating correctly and the WDT does not reset and return the device to proper operation. Answer 1: The WDT was not designed to be a recovery from a brown-out condition. It was designed to recover from errant software operation (the device remaining in the specified operating ranges). If your system can be subjected to brown-outs, either the on-chip brown-out circuitry should be enabled or an external brown-out circuit should be implemented. Question 2: Device RESETS even though I do the CLRWDT instruction in my loop. Answer 2: Make sure that the loop with the CLRWDT instruction meets the minimum specification of the WDT (not the typical). Question 3: Device never gets out of RESETS. Answer 3: On power-up, you must take into account the Oscillator Start-up time (Tost). Sometimes it helps to put the CLRWDT instruction at the beginning of the loop, since this start-up time may be variable. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 12 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

When the device powers up, the state of these bits determines the modes that the device uses. Section 29.2 “Configuration Word Bits” discusses the configuration bits and the modes to which they can be configured. These bits are mapped in program memory locations starting at address 300000h. These locations are accessible during normal device operation. The configuration bits can be programmed (read as '0') or left unprogrammed (read as '1') to select various device configurations. The ability to change these settings once they have been programmed depends on the memory technology and the package type. This is discussed below: • Read Only Memory (ROM) devices: These bits are specified at time of ROM code submittal; once the device is masked, these bits can not be changed (would require a new mask code). • One Time Programmable (OTP) devices: Once the bit is programmed (’0’), it may not be changed. • Windowed EPROM devices: Once these bits are programmed (’0’), the device must be UV erased to return the configuration word to the erased state. UV erasing the device also erases the program memory. Window devices are for debugging purposes. • FLASH devices: These bits may be erased and reprogrammed. Note: Microchip does not recommend code-protecting windowed devices. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Device Configuration Bits Device Configuration Bits 29 29.2 Configuration Word Bits These configuration bits specify some of the device modes and are programmed by a device programmer, or by using the In-Circuit Serial ProgrammingTM (ICSP) feature of the Enhanced Architecture devices. The placement of these configuration bits is automatically handled when you select the device in your device programmer. The desired state of the configuration bits may be specified in the source code (dependent on the language tool used), or through the programming interface. After the device has been programmed, the application software may read the configuration bit values through the Table read instructions. For additional information, please refer to the Programming Specification of the device. Note 1: Always ensure that your device programmer has the same device selected as you are programming. 2: Microchip recommends that the desired configuration bit states be embedded into the application source code. This is easily done in the MPASM assembler by the use of the CONFIG directive. See Subsection 29.2.1 “MPASM’s CONFIG Directive.” 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 3 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39530A-page 29-4  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

This ensures that when programming a device for an application, the required configuration is also programmed. This minimizes the risk of programming the wrong device configuration and then wondering why it no longer works in the application (unexpected operation).

The program memory configuration bit is submitted as part of the ROM code submittal. The Data EEPROM memory code protect configuration bit will be an EEPROM bit. When ROM devices complete testing, the EEPROM data memory code protect bit will be programmed to the same state as the program memory code protect bit. That is, Data EEPROM code protect is off when program memory code protect is off and Data EEPROM code protect is on for all other selections. In applications where the device is code protected and the Data EEPROM needs to be programmed before the application can be released, the Data EEPROM memory must have the entire Data EEPROM memory erased. The device programming specification details the steps to do this. Microchip device programmers implement the specified sequence. Once this sequence is complete, the Data EEPROM memory code protect is disabled. This allows the desired data to be programmed into the device. After programming the Data EEPROM memory array, the Data EEPROM memory code protect configuration bit should be programmed as desired. Note: Microchip does not recommend code protecting windowed devices. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 10 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

These locations are accessible during normal execution through the TBLRD instruction, or during program/verify. The ID locations can be read when the device is code protected. 29.5 Device ID One memory location (two bytes) (3FFFFEh-3FFFFFh) is designated as the Device ID location. The value at this location is specified by Microchip and is useful in determining the device. Device ID bits can be used by a device programmer to retrieve information about what device is being programmed and what the revision of the device is. The Device ID can be accessed by a TBLRD instruction or via serial program/verify. The Device ID can be read when the part is code protected. The 5 LSbs are the device revision information, and the remaining 11 bits contain the device ID number. This is shown in Table 29-2.

What’s wrong with the device? Answer 1: Nothing. You probably code protected the device. If this is the case, the device is no longer usable. See Section 29.3 “Program Verification/Code Protection” for more details. Question 2: In converting from a PIC16C74 to a PIC18C452, my application no longer works. Answer 2: 1. Did you re-assemble the source file specifying the PIC18C452 in the INCLUDE file and LIST directives? The use of the CONFIG directive is highly recommended. 2. On the device programmer, did you specify the PIC18C452, and were all the configuration bits as desired? Question 3: When I erase the device, the program memory is blank but the configuration word is not yet erased. Answer 3: That is by design. Also remember that Microchip does not recommend code protecting windowed devices. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 12 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

In-Circuit Serial Programming™ (ICSP™) HIGHLIGHTS This section of the manual contains the following major topics: 30.1 Introduction .................................................................................................................. 30-2 30.2 Entering In-Circuit Serial Programming Mode ............................................................. 30-3 30.3 Application Circuit ........................................................................................................ 30-4 30.4 Programmer ................................................................................................................. 30-6 30.5 Programming Environment .......................................................................................... 30-6 30.6 Other Benefits .............................................................................................................. 30-7 30.7 Field Programming of PICmicro OTP MCUs................................................................ 30-8 30.8 Field Programming of FLASH PICmicro MCUs ......................................................... 30-10 30.9 Design Tips ................................................................................................................ 30-12 30.10 Related Application Notes.......................................................................................... 30-13 30.11 Revision History ......................................................................................................... 30-14 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 1 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39531A-page 30-2  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 30.1 Introduction All Enhanced MCU devices can be In-Circuit Serial Programmed (ICSP™) while in the end application circuit. This is simply done with two lines for clock and data, and three other lines for power, ground and the programming voltage. In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP™) is a great way to reduce your inventory overhead and time-to-market for your product. By assembling your product with a blank Microchip microcontroller (MCU), you can stock one design. When an order has been placed, these units can be programmed with the latest revision of firmware, tested and shipped in a very short time. This method also reduces scrapped inventory due to old firmware revisions. This type of manufacturing system can also facilitate quick turnarounds on custom orders for your product. Most people would think to use ICSP with PICmicro® OTP MCUs only on an assembly line where the device is programmed once. However, there is a method by which an OTP device can be programmed several times depending on the size of the firmware. This method, explained in Section 30.7, provides a way to field upgrade your firmware in a way similar to EEPROM- or FLASH-based devices. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39531A-page 30-3 Section 30. ICSP ICSP 30 30.2 Entering In-Circuit Serial Programming Mode The device is placed into a program/verify mode by holding the CLOCK (typically on the RB6 pin) and DATA (typically on the RB7 pin) pins low, while raising the MCLR (VPP) pin from VIL to VIHH (see programming specification) and having VDD at the programming voltage. Both the CLOCK and DATA pins are Schmitt Trigger inputs in this mode. When in I/O mode and RB7 is driving data, it is a CMOS output driver. After RESET, to place the device into programming/verify mode, the program counter (PC) is at location 00h. A command is then supplied to the device. Some commands then specify that 16-bits of program data are then supplied to or read from the device, depending on whether the command was a load or a read. For complete details of serial programming, please refer to the device specific Programming Specifications. During the In-Circuit Serial Programming Mode, the WDT circuitry is disabled from generating a device RESET. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 3 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39531A-page 30-4  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 30.3 Application Circuit The application circuit must be designed to allow all the programming signals to be directly connected to the PICmicro MCU. Figure 30-1 shows a typical circuit that is a starting point when designing with ICSP. The application must compensate for the following: 1. Isolation of the MCLR/VPP pin from the rest of the circuit 2. Loading of pins CLOCK and DATA 3. Capacitance on each of the VDD, MCLR/VPP, CLOCK and DATA pins 4. Minimum and maximum operating voltage for VDD 5. PICmicro oscillator 30.3.1 Isolation of the MCLR/VPP Pin from the Rest of the Circuit The MCLR/VPP pin is normally connected to an RC circuit. The pull-up resistor is tied to VDD and a capacitor is tied to ground. This circuit can affect the operation of ICSP depending on the size of the capacitor, since the VPP voltage must be isolated from the rest of the circuit . The resistor (R1) should be greater than 10kΩ to provide isolation between VDD and VPP. It is, therefore, recommended that the circuit in Figure 30-1 be used when an RC is connected to MCLR/VPP. Another consideration with MCLR/VPP is that when the PICmicro device is programmed, this pin is driven to approximately 13V and also to ground. Therefore, the application circuit must be isolated from this voltage provided by the programmer. 30.3.2 Loading of Pins CLOCK and DATA The CLOCK and DATA pins are used by the PICmicro MCU for serial programming. CLOCK is driven by the programmer. DATA is a bi-directional pin that is driven by the programmer when programming, and driven by the MCU when verifying. These pins must be isolated from the rest of the application circuit so as not to affect the signals during programming. You must take into consideration the output impedance of the programmer when isolating CLOCK and DATA from the rest of the circuit. This isolation circuit must account for CLOCK being an input on the MCU and for DATA being bi-directional (can be driven by both the MCU and the programmer). For instance, PRO MATE® II has an output impedance of 1kΩ. If the design permits, these pins should not be used by the application. This is not the case with most applications, so it is recommended that the designer evaluate whether these signals need to be buffered. As a designer, you must consider what type of circuitry is connected to CLOCK and DATA and then make a decision on how to isolate these pins. Figure 30-1 does not show any circuitry to isolate CLOCK and DATA on the application circuit, because this is very application dependent. To simplify this interface, the optimal usage of these I/O pins in the application are (in order): 1. Dedicate the CLOCK/DATA pins for the ICSP interface (not connected to other circuitry). 2. Use these pins as outputs with minimal loading on the signal line. 3. Use isolation circuitry so these signals can be driven to the ICSP specifications.

DS39531A-page 30-5 Section 30. ICSP ICSP 30 30.3.3 Capacitance on Each of the VDD, MCLR/VPP, CLOCK and DATA Pins The total capacitance on the programming pins affects the rise rates of these signals as they are driven out of the programmer. Typical circuits use several hundred microfarads of capacitance on VDD, which helps to dampen noise and ripple. However, this capacitance requires a fairly strong driver in the programmer to meet the rise rate timings for VDD. Most programmers are designed to simply program the MCU itself and don’t have strong enough drivers to power the application circuit. One solution is to use a driver board between the programmer and the application circuit. The driver board requires a separate power supply that is capable of driving the VPP and VDD pins with the correct rise rates and should also provide enough current to power the application circuit. CLOCK and DATA are not buffered on this schematic, but may require buffering depending upon the application. A sample driver board schematic is shown in Figure 30-2. 30.3.4 Minimum and Maximum Operating Voltage for VDD The Microchip programming specification states that the device should be programmed at 5V. Special considerations must be made if your application circuit operates at 3V only. These considerations may include totally isolating the MCU during programming. Another consideration is the device must be verified at the minimum and maximum voltages at which the application circuit will be operating. For instance, a battery operated system may operate from three 1.5V cells giving an operating voltage range of 2.7V to 4.5V. The programmer must program the device at 5V and must verify the program memory contents at both 2.7V and 4.5V to ensure that proper programming margins have been achieved. This ensures the PICmicro MCU operation over the voltage range of the system. 30.3.5 PICmicro Oscillator The final consideration deals with the oscillator circuit on the application board. The voltage on MCLR/VPP must rise to the specified program mode entry voltage before the device executes any code. The crystal modes available on the device are not affected by this, because the Oscillator Start-up Timer waits for 1024 oscillations before any code is executed. However, RC or EC oscillators do not require any start-up time; therefore, the Oscillator Start-up Timer is not used. The programmer must drive MCLR/VPP to the program mode entry voltage before the RC or EC oscillator toggles four times. If the RC or EC oscillator toggles four or more times, the program counter will be incremented to some value X. When the device enters programming mode, the program counter will not be zero and the programmer will start programming your code at an offset of X. There are several alternatives that can compensate for a slow rise rate on MCLR/VPP. The first method is to not populate the resistor (R1) in Figure 30-1, program the device, and then insert the resistor (R1). The other method is to have the programming interface drive the OSC1 pin of the PICmicro MCU to ground while programming. This will prevent any oscillations from occurring during programming. Connecting the application circuit to the programmer is dependent on the programming environment. Refer to Section 30.5 "Programming Environment" for more details. Note: The driver board design MUST be tested in the user's application to determine the effects of the application circuit on the programming signals timing. Changes may be required if the application places a significant load on the VDD, VPP, CLOCK or DATA pins. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 5 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39531A-page 30-6  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 30.4 Programmer PIC18CXXX MCUs only use serial programming and, therefore, all programmers supporting these devices will support ICSP. One area of consideration with the programmer is the drive capability. As discussed before, it must be able to provide the specified rise rates on the ICSP signals and also provide enough current to power the application circuit. Figure 30-2 shows an example driver board. This driver schematic does not show any buffer circuitry for CLOCK and DATA. It is recommended that an evaluation be performed to determine if buffering is required. Another consideration with the programmer is what VDD levels are used to verify the memory contents of the device. For instance, the PRO MATE II verifies program memory at the minimum and maximum VDD levels for the specified device and is, therefore, considered a production quality programmer. On the other hand, the PICSTART® Plus only verifies at 5V and is for prototyping use only. The Microchip programming specifications state that the program memory contents should be verified at both the minimum and maximum VDD levels that the application circuit will be operating. This implies that the application circuit must be able to handle the varying VDD voltages. There are also several third party programmers that are available. You should select a programmer based on the features it has and how it fits into your programming environment. The Microchip Development Systems Ordering Guide (DS30177) provides detailed information on all our development tools. The Microchip Third Party Guide (DS00104) provides information on all of our third party tool developers. Please consult these two references when selecting a programmer. Many options exist, including serial or parallel PC host connection, stand-alone operation, and single or gang programmers. Some of the third party developers include Advanced Transdata Corporation, BP Microsystems, Data I/O, Emulation Technology, and Logical Devices. 30.5 Programming Environment The programming environment affects the type of programmer used, the programmer cable length and the application circuit interface. Some programmers are well suited for a manual assembly line, while others are desirable for an automated assembly line. You may want to choose a gang programmer to program multiple systems at a time. The physical distance between the programmer and the application circuit affects the load capacitance on each of the programming signals. This directly affects the drive strength needed to provide the correct signal rise rates and current. This programming cable must also be as short as possible and properly terminated and shielded, or the programming signals may be corrupted by ringing or noise. Finally, the application circuit interface to the programmer depends on the size constraints of the application circuit itself and the assembly line. A simple header can be used to interface the application circuit to the programmer. This might be more desirable for a manual assembly line where a technician plugs the programmer cable into the board. A different method uses spring loaded test pins (commonly referred to as pogo pins). The application circuit has pads on the board for each of the programming signals, and there is a fixture that has pogo pins in the corresponding configuration. The application circuit or fixture is moved into position, such that the pogo pins come into contact with the board. This method might be more suitable for an automated assembly line. After taking into consideration the various points with the application circuit, the programmer and the programming environment, anyone can build a high quality, reliable manufacturing line based on ICSP. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39531A-page 30-7 Section 30. ICSP ICSP 30 30.6 Other Benefits ICSP provides other benefits, such as calibration and serialization. If program memory permits, it would be cheaper and more reliable, to store calibration constants in program memory instead of using an external serial EEPROM. For example, if your system has a thermistor that can vary from one system to another, storing some calibration information in a table format allows the microcontroller to compensate (in software) for external component tolerances. System cost can be reduced without affecting the required performance of the system by using software calibration techniques. But how does this relate to ICSP? The PICmicro MCU has already been programmed with firmware that performs a calibration cycle. The calibration data is transferred to a calibration fixture. When all calibration data has been transferred, the fixture places the PICmicro MCU in programming mode and programs the PICmicro MCU with the calibration data. Application note AN656, "In-Circuit Serial Programming of Calibration Parameters Using a PICmicro Microcontroller," shows exactly how to implement this type of calibration data programming. The other benefit of ICSP is serialization. Each individual system can be programmed with a unique or random serial number. One such application of a unique serial number would be for security systems. A typical system might use DIP switches to set the serial number. Instead, this number can be burned into program memory, thus reducing the overall system cost and lowering the risk of tampering. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 7 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39531A-page 30-8  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 30.7 Field Programming of PICmicro OTP MCUs An OTP device is not normally capable of being reprogrammed, but the PICmicro architecture gives you this flexibility, provided the size of your firmware is at least half that of the desired device, and the device is not code protected. If your target device does not have enough program memory, Microchip provides a wide spectrum of devices from 0.5K to 16K word program memory with the same set of peripheral features that will help meet the criteria. The Enhanced MCU devices have three vectors; RESET and two interrupt vector addresses. When the PICmicro device encounters a RESET or interrupt condition, the code located at one of these locations in program memory is executed. For an example of reprogramming an OTP device, we will use an example from our Mid-Range family. This technology is applicable to all EPROM based PICmicro devices. The first listing of Example 30-1 shows the code that is first programmed into the PICmicro device. The second listing of Example 30-1 shows the code that is programmed into the PICmicro device for the second time. Example 30-1 shows that to program the device a second time, the memory location 0x0000 (originally goto Main (0x2808)), is reprogrammed to all 0’s. This happens to be a NOP instruction. This location cannot be reprogrammed to the new opcode (0x2860), because the bits that are 0’s cannot be reprogrammed to 1’s. Only bits that are 1’s can be reprogrammed to 0’s. The next memory location, 0x0001, was originally blank (all 1’s) and now becomes a goto Main (0x2860). When a RESET condition occurs, the MCU executes the instruction at location 0x0000, which is the NOP (a completely benign instruction), and then executes the goto Main to start the execution of code. The example also shows that all program memory locations after 0x005A are blank in the original program, so that the second time the PICmicro device is programmed, the revised code can be programmed at these locations. The same descriptions can be given for the interrupt vector locations. Now your one-time programmable Enhanced MCU is exhibiting EEPROM- or FLASH-like qualities. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 8 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

These FLASH devices allow you to reprogram them even if they are code protected. A portable ICSP programming station might consist of a laptop computer and programmer. The technician plugs the ICSP interface cable into the application circuit and downloads the new firmware into the device. The next thing you know, the system is up and running without those annoying “bugs.” Another instance would be that you want to add an additional feature to your system. All of your current inventory can be converted to the new firmware, and field upgrades can be performed to bring your installed base of systems up to the latest revision of firmware. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 10 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Answer 1: If the MCLR pin does not rise fast enough, while the device’s voltage is in the valid operating range, the internal Program Counter (PC) can increment. This means that the PC is no longer pointing to the address that you expected. The exact location depends on the number of device clocks that occurred in the valid operating region of the device. Question 2: I am using a PRO MATE II with a socket that I designed to bring the programming signal to my application board. Sometimes when I try to do ICSP, the program memory is programmed wrong. Answer 2: The voltages / timings may be violated at the device. This could be due to the: • Application board circuitry • Cable length from programmer to target • Large capacitance on VDD that affects levels / timings 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 12 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Most instructions are a single program memory word (16-bits), but to address customer requests, some new instructions have been added that require two program memory locations. The Instruction Set Summary, shown in Table 31-1, lists the instructions recognized by the Microchip assembler (MPASM). Table 31-2 gives the instruction description conventions. Each instruction is divided into an OPCODE that specifies the instruction type and one or more operands which further specify the operation of the instruction. The instruction set is highly orthogonal and is grouped into four basic categories: • Byte-oriented operations • Bit-oriented operations • Literal operations • Control operations Most byte-oriented instructions have three operands: 1. The File Register (specified by the value of ’f’) 2. The destination of the result (specified by the value of ’d’) 3. The accessed memory (specified by the value of ’a’) 'f' represents a File Register Designator and 'd' represents a Destination Designator. The File Register Designator specifies which File Register is to be used by the instruction. The access indicator ’a’ specifies if the BSR selects the bank or if the access bank is used. The destination designator specifies where the result of the operation is to be placed. If 'd' is zero, the result is placed in the WREG Register. If 'd' is one, the result is placed in the File Register specified in the instruction. All bit-oriented instructions have three operands: 1. The File Register (specified by the value of ’f’) 2. The bit in the File Register (specified by the value of ’b’) 3. The accessed memory (specified by the value of ’a’) 'b' represents a bit field designator that selects the number of the bit affected by the operation, while 'f' represents the number of the file in which the bit is located. The access indicator ’a’ specifies if the BSR selects the bank or if the access bank is used. The literal instructions may use some of the following operands: • A literal value to be loaded into a File Register (specified by the value of ’k’) • The desired FSR Register to load the literal value into (specified by the value of ’f’) • No operand required (specified by the value of ’—’) The control instructions may use some of the following operands: • A program memory address (specified by the value of ’n’) • The mode of the CALL or RETURN instructions (specified by the value of ’s’) • The mode of the Table Read and Table Write instructions (specified by the value of ’m’) • No operand required (specified by the value of ’—’) All instructions are a single word except for three double word instructions. These three instructions were made double word instructions so that all the required information is available in these 32 bits. In the second word, the 4-MSb’s, are ’1’s. If this second word is executed as an instruction (by itself), it will execute as a NOP. All single word instructions are executed in a single instruction cycle, unless a conditional test is true or the program counter is changed as a result of the instruction. In these cases, the execution takes two instruction cycles with the additional instruction cycle(s) executed as a NOP. The double word instructions (that do not modify the PC) execute in two instruction cycles. One instruction cycle consists of four oscillator periods. Thus, for an oscillator frequency of 4 MHz, the normal instruction execution time is 1 µs. If a conditional test is true or the program counter is changed as a result of an instruction, the instruction execution time is 2 µs. Two word branch instructions (if true) would take 3 µs. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39532A-page 31-3 Section 31. Instruction Set Instruction Set 31 31.2 Data Memory Map The Data Memory Map has 16 banks of 256 bytes. The Instruction Set and architecture allows operations across all banks (such as MOVFF). A Segment of Bank 0 and a segment of Bank 15 comprise the access bank. See Section 31.2.1 for description of the access bank. Figure 31-1: The Data Memory Map and the Access Bank 31.2.1 Access Bank The access bank is an architectural enhancement that is very useful for C compiler code optimization. The techniques used by the C compiler may also be useful for programs written in assembly. This data memory region can be used for • Intermediate computational values • Local variables of subroutine • Faster context saving/switching of variables • Common variables • Faster evaluation/control of SFRs (no banking) The access bank is comprised of 2 segments: Segment 0 and Segment 1. Segment 0 is the RAM that is mapped in Bank 0. Segment 1 is the SFRs that are mapped in Bank 15. Each Segment can be of different sizes. The sum of RAM mapped by Segment 0 and Segment 1 is 256 bytes. When forced in the access bank (a = ’0’), the last address in Segment 0 is followed by the first address in Segment 1. Segment 1 maps the Special Function Registers so that these registers can be accessed without any software overhead. This is useful for testing status flags and modifying control bits. Bank 0 Bank 1 Bank 14 Bank 15 BSR<3:0> Data Memory Map = 0000b = 0001b = 1110b = 1111b 00h FFh 00h FFh Access Bank When the instructions ’a’ bit = 0, The BSR is ignored and this Access Bank is used. The Segment 0 General Purpose RAM is from Bank 0. The Segment 1 Special Function Registers is from Bank 15. When a = 1, the BSR is used to specify the RAM location that the instruction uses.

Example 31-1 shows how registers are affected depending on the value of the access bit. Register MYREG has an 8-bit address. This address specifies the location in the specified bank to perform the operation. The specified bank is either the bank specified by the Bank Select Register (BSR) (when a = 1), or the access bank (when a = 0). Example 31-1:Operation of Destination and Access Bits ; ; The following symbols are defined in the Microchip supplied ; device header file: ; ; For destination bit: ; F = 1 ; Result is placed in File Register ; W = 0 ; Result is placed in WREG Register ; ; For access bit: ; B = 1 ; Register used specified by BSR Bank Register ; A = 0 ; Register used is in Access Bank ; ; MYREG is a register with an 8-bit address value between 0h and FFh. ; For this example we will assign MYREG to bank 5, though it could ; be in any (or all) banks. ; MOVLB 5 ; BSR points to RAM bank 5 ; ; Contents of ; Addr(MYREG) in ; MYREG access bank WREG ; Starting Value 0x7F 0x5A x ; DECF MYREG, F, B ; 0x7E --- --- DECF MYREG, F, A ; --- 0x59 --- ; DECF MYREG, W, B ; --- --- 0x7D DECF MYREG, W, A ; --- --- 0x58 Note: If the register is specified with the full 12-bit address, the assembler will automatically force the access bit to a ’0’ (when the address is in the access RAM area) or a ’1’ (for all other addresses). 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 4 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

This means that the assembler can determine from the address of the register, whether the access bit needs to be set or cleared.

Instruction Set’s Orthogonal Instruction Set allows read and write of all File Registers, including Special Function Registers. The user should be aware of some special situations which are explained in the following subsections. 31.4.1 STATUS Register as Destination If an instruction writes to the STATUS Register, the Z, C, DC, OV, and N bits may be set or cleared as a result of the instruction and overwrite the original data bits. For example, executing CLRF STATUS will clear Register STATUS, and then set the Z bit leaving 0000 0100b in the register. 31.4.2 Bit Manipulation All bit manipulation instructions will first read the entire register, operate on the selected bit and then write the result back to (read-modify-write (R-M-W)) the specified register. The user should keep this in mind when operating on some Special Function Registers, such as the Port Pin Register. 31.4.3 PCL as Source or Destination Read, write or read-modify-write (R-M-W) on PCL may have the following results: Read PCL: PCL → destination ; Reading PCL causes the following PCH → PCLATH PCU → PCLATU Write PCL: 8-bit destination value → PCL ; Writing PCL causes the following PCLATH → PCH PCLATU → PCU Read-Modify-Write: PCL→ ALU operand ; R-M-W of PCL causes the following PCH → PCLATH PCU → PCLATU ; PCL data is modified 8-bit result → PCL ; result is written back to PCL PCLATH → PCH PCLATU → PCU Where PCH = program counter high byte (not an addressable register), PCLATH = Program counter high holding latch, PCU = program counter upper byte (not an addressable register), PCLATU = Program counter upper holding latch, destination = Register file ’f’. Note: Status bits that are manipulated by the device (including the interrupt flag bits) are set or cleared in the Q1 cycle, so there is no issue with executing R-M-W instructions on registers that contain these bits. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 12 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39532A-page 31-13 Section 31. Instruction Set Instruction Set 31 31.5 Fast Register Stack At times it is desirable to be able to quickly access and return from a function. This function may be called as a subroutine, or an interrupt routine of the device. To reduce the overhead for accessing/returning from these functions, the architecture has the ability to save three key registers in a one deep Register Stack. These registers are: • WREG Register • BSR (Bank Select Register) Register • STATUS Register The two events that cause these registers to be loaded onto the Fast Register Stack are: • A fast call (CALL K, fast)(where the fast bit is set (’1’)) • Any interrupt occurs These Fast Stack Registers are not accessible for reading or writing. When doing the return from these subroutine, the values can be restored into their registers executing the fast return: • RETFIE fast (where the fast bit is set (’1’)) • RETURN fast (where the fast bit is set (’1’)) When s (fast) = ’0’, the Fast Register Stack is not used, when s (fast) = ’1’, the Fast Register Stack is used. 31.6 Q Cycle Activity Each instruction cycle (Tcy) is comprised of four Q clocks (also called Q cycles). These are referred to as Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4. The Q cycles provide the timing/designation for the Decode, Read, Process Data, Write etc., of each instruction cycle. The Figure 31-3 shows the relationship of the Q cycles to the instruction cycle. The four Q cycles that make up an instruction cycle (Tcy) can be generalized as: Q1: Instruction Decode Cycle or forced No Operation Q2: Instruction Read Cycle or No Operation Q3: Process the Data Q4: Instruction Write Cycle or No Operation Some actions occur on the edge between the end of one Q cycle and the start of the next Q cycle. An example would be a Q2-Q3 action. This action occurs on the clock edge between the end of Q2 cycle and the beginning of the Q3 cycle. The clock source for the Q cycle is normally the device oscillator clock (TOSC). But the clock source is software selectable. So the Q cycle may be independent of the device oscillator cycle (TOSC). In the full description of each instruction, the detailed Q cycle operation for the instruction will be shown.

Can you explain what it is and why I need to know this? Answer 1: An easy example of a Read-Modify-Write (or R-M-W) instruction is the bit clear instruction BCF. You might think that the processor just clears the bit, which on a port output pin would clear the pin. What actually happens is the whole port (or register) is first read, THEN the bit is cleared, then the new modified value is written back to the port (or register). Actually, any instruction that depends on a value currently in the register is going to be a Read-Modify-Write instruction. This includes ADDWF, SUBWF, BCF, BSF, INCF, XORWF, etc... Instructions that do not depend on the current register value, like MOVWF, CLRF, and so on are not R-M-W instructions. One situation where you would want to consider the affects of a R-M-W instruction is a port that is continuously changed from input to output and back. For example, say you have TRISB set to all outputs, and write all ones to the PORTB Register, all of the PORTB pins will go high. Now, say you turn pin RB3 into an input, which happens to go low. A BCF PORTB,6 is then executed to drive pin RB6 low. If you then turn RB3 back into an output, it will now drive low, even though the last value you put there was a one. What happened was that the BCF of the other pin (RB6) caused the whole port to be read, including the zero on RB3 when it was an input. Then, bit 6 was changed as requested, but since RB3 was read as a zero, zero will also be placed back into that port latch, overwriting the one that was there before. When the pin is turned back into an output, the new value was reflected. Try using the LATx register instead of the PORTx register for this read-modify-write operation. Question 2: When I perform a BCF, other pins get cleared in the port. Why? Answer 2: There are a few possibilities, two are: 1. Another case where a R-M-W instruction may seem to change other pin values unexpectedly can be illustrated as follows: Suppose you make PORTC all outputs and drive the pins low. On each of the port pins is an LED connected to ground, such that a high output lights it. Across each LED is a 100 µF capacitor. Let's also suppose that the processor is running very fast, say 20 MHz. Now if you go down the port setting each pin in order; BSF PORTC,0 then BSF PORTC,1 then BSF PORTC,2 and so on, you may see that only the last pin was set, and only the last LED actually turns on. This is because the capacitors take a while to charge. As each pin was set, the pin before it was not charged yet and so was read as a zero. This zero is written back out to the port latch (R-M-W, remember) which clears the bit you just tried to set the instruction before. This is usually only a concern at high speeds and for successive port operations, but it can happen, so take it into consideration. 2. If this is on a PIC16C7X device, you may not have configured the I/O pins properly in the ADCON1 Register. If a pin is configured for analog input, any read of that pin will read a zero, regardless of the voltage on the pin. This is an exception to the normal rule that the pin state is always read. You can still configure an analog pin as an output in the TRIS Register, and drive the pin high or low by writing to it, but you will always read a zero. Therefore, if you execute a Read-Modify-Write instruction (see previous question), all analog pins are read as zero, and those not directly modified by the instruction will be written back to the port latch as zero. A pin configured as analog is expected to have values that may be neither high nor low to a digital pin, or floating. Floating inputs on digital pins are a no-no, and can lead to high current draw in the input buffer, so the input buffer is disabled. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 136 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

DS39533A-page 32-3 Section 32. Electrical Specifications Electrical Specifications 32 32.2 Absolute Maximums The Absolute Maximum Ratings specify the worst case conditions that can be applied to the device. These ratings are not meant as operational specifications. Stresses above the listed values may cause damage to the device. Specifications are not always stand-alone, that is, the specification may have other requirements as well. An example of this is the “maximum current sourced/sunk by any I/O pin”. The number of I/O pins that can be sinking/sourcing current, at any one time, is dependent upon the maximum current sunk/source by the port(s) (combined) and the maximum current into the VDD pin or out of the VSS pin. In this example, the physical reason is the Power and Ground bus width to the I/O ports and internal logic. If these specifications are exceeded, then electromigration may occur on these Power and Ground buses. Over time, electromigration would cause these buses to open (be disconnected from the pin) and, therefore, cause the logic attached to these buses to stop operating. So, exceeding the absolute specifications may cause device reliability issues. Input Clamp Current is defined as the current through the diode to VSS/VDD if pin voltage exceeds specification. Example Absolute Maximum Ratings † Ambient temperature under bias............................................................................ -55 to +125°C Storage temperature .......................................................................................... -65°C to +150°C Voltage on any pin with respect to VSS (except VDD, MCLR, and RA4)..... -0.3V to (VDD + 0.3V) Voltage on VDD with respect to VSS ........................................................................ -0.3 to +7.5V Voltage on MCLR with respect to VSS (2) ................................................................. 0 to +13.25V Voltage on RA4 with respect to Vss ............................................................................. 0 to +8.5V Total power dissipation (1) .................................................................................................... 1.0W Maximum current out of VSS pin ...................................................................................... 300 mA Maximum current into VDD pin ......................................................................................... 250 mA Input clamp current, IIK (VI < 0 or VI > VDD).................................................................... ± 20 mA Output clamp current, IOK (VO < 0 or VO > VDD) ............................................................. ± 20 mA Maximum output current sunk by any I/O pin..................................................................... 25 mA Maximum output current sourced by any I/O pin ............................................................... 25 mA Maximum current sunk by PORTA, PORTB, and PORTE (combined)............................. 200 mA Maximum current sourced by PORTA, PORTB, and PORTE (combined) ....................... 200 mA Maximum current sunk by PORTC and PORTD (combined) ........................................... 200 mA Maximum current sourced by PORTC and PORTD (combined)...................................... 200 mA Maximum current sunk by PORTF and PORTG (combined) ........................................... 100 mA Maximum current sourced by PORTF and PORTG (combined) ...................................... 100 mA Note 1: Power dissipation is calculated as follows: Pdis = VDD x {IDD - IOH} + {(VDD - VOH)xIOH} + (VOlxIOL) 2: Voltage spikes below VSS at the MCLR/VPP pin, inducing currents greater than 80 mA, may cause latch-up. Thus, a series resistor of 50-100Ω should be used when applying a “low” level to the MCLR/VPP pin, rather than pulling this pin directly to VSS. † NOTICE: Stresses above those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at those or any other conditions above those indicated in the operation listings of this specification is not implied. Exposure to maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 3 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39533A-page 32-4  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 32.3 Voltage vs Frequency Graph Windowed devices are superset devices with all oscillator configurations tested to the specification ranges of the C and LC devices.

Supply Voltage is the voltage level that must be applied to the device VDD pins for the proper functional operation. RAM Data Retention Voltage is the minimum level that the device voltage may be at and still retain the RAM’s data value. VDD Start Voltage to ensure the internal Power-on Reset signal, is the level that VDD must start from, to ensure that the POR circuitry will operate properly. VDD Rise Rate to ensure internal Power-on Reset signal, is the minimum slope that VDD must rise to cause the POR circuitry to trip. Brown-out Reset Voltage is the voltage range where the brown-out circuitry may trip. When the BOR circuitry trips, the device will either be in Brown-out Reset, or has just come out of Brown-out Reset.

Electrical Specifications Electrical Specifications 32 32.5 Device Current Specifications IDD is referred to as supply current and is the current (I) consumed by the device when in operating mode. This test is taken with all I/O as inputs, either pulled high or low. That is, there are no floating inputs, nor are any pins driving an output (with a load). IPD is referred to as power-down current and is the current (I) consumed by the device when in SLEEP mode (power-down), referred to as power-down current. These tests are taken with all I/O as inputs, either pulled high or low. That is, there are no floating inputs, nor are any pins driving an output (with a load), weak pull-ups are disabled. A device may have certain features and modules that can operate while the device is in SLEEP mode. Some of these modules are: • Watchdog Timer (WDT) • Low Voltage Detect (LVD) • Brown-out Reset (BOR) circuitry • Timer1 Oscillator • Analog to Digital converter • Comparators • Voltage Reference • CAN Module When all features are disabled, the device will consume the lowest possible current (the leakage current). If any of these features are operating while the device is in SLEEP, a higher current will occur. The difference in current between the lowest power mode (everything off) and only that one feature enabled (such as the WDT), is what we call the Module Differential Current. If more then one feature is enabled, then the expected current can easily be calculated as: the base current (everything disabled and in SLEEP mode) plus all Module Differential Currents (delta currents). Example 32-1 shows an example of calculating the typical currents for a device at 5V, with the WDT and Timer1 oscillator enabled. Example 32-1: IPD Calculations with WDT and Timer1 Oscillator Enabled (@ 5V) Note: Some modules (such as the Brown-out Reset and Low Voltage Detect) use a common resource (an internal reference voltage generator). This resource may consume a significant percentage of the total modules current when enabled. Since 2 modules are using this, the total current will be less then the calculation.

An input may not read a ’0’ at a voltage level above this. All designs should be to the specification, since device to device (and to a much lesser extent pin to pin) variations will cause this level to vary. The Input High Voltage (VIH) is the minimum voltage level that will be read as a logic ’1’. An input may not read a ’1’ at a voltage level below this. All designs should be to the specification, since device to device (and to a much lesser extent pin to pin) variations will cause this level to vary. The I/O pins with TTL levels are shown with two specifications. One is the industry standard TTL specification, which is specified for the voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V. The other specifies operation over the entire voltage range of the device. The better of these two specifications may be used in the design (see Note 2 in Table 32-4).

Electrical Specifications Electrical Specifications 32 32.7 I/O Current Specifications The PORT Weak Pull-up Current is the additional current consumed when the weak pull-ups are enabled. Leakage Currents are the currents that the device consumes, since the devices are manufactured in the real world and do not adhere to their ideal characteristics. Ideally, there should be no current on an input, but due to the real world, there is always some parasitic path that consumes negligible current.

The VOL of an I/O pin is dependent on the current sunk by that pin. If an I/O pin is shorted to VDD, no matter the drive capability of the I/O pin, a low level would not be reached (and the device would consume excessive drive current). The VOL is the output voltage that the I/O pin will drive, given the I/O does not need to sink more then the IOL current (at the specified device voltage), as specified in the conditions portion of the specification. The Output High Voltage (VOH) is the pin’s output voltage for a high level. The VOH of an I/O pin is dependent on the current sourced by that pin. If an I/O pin is shorted to VSS, no matter the drive capability of the I/O pin, a high level would not be reached (and the device would consume excessive drive current). The VOH is the output voltage that the I/O pin will drive, given the I/O does not need to source more then the IOH current (at the specified device voltage), as specified in the conditions portion of the specification.

All specified values are based on characterization data for that particular oscillator type under standard operating conditions with the device executing code. Exceeding these specified limits may result in an unstable oscillator operation and/or higher than expected current consumption. All devices are tested to operate at "min." values with an external clock applied to the OSC1/CLKIN pin. When an external clock input is used, the "Max." cycle time limit is "DC" (no clock) for all devices.

This information becomes available after the devices have undergone a complete characterization and the data has been analyzed. This data is taken on both device testers and on bench setups. The characterization data gives the designer a better understanding of the device characteristics, to better judge the acceptability of the device to the application. 33.2 Characterization vs. Electrical Specification The difference between this information and the Electrical specifications can be classified as what the user should expect the devices to do vs. what Microchip tests the devices to do. The characterization graphs and tables provided are for design guidance and are not tested nor guaranteed. There may be differences between what the characterization shows as the limits vs. that which is tested, as shown in the Electrical Specification section. This results from capabilities of the production tester equipment, plus whatever guard band that may be necessary. 33.3 DC and AC Characteristics Graphs and Tables Each table gives specific information that may be useful design information. These values are taken under fixed circumstances. Measurements taken in your application may not lead to the same values if your circumstances are not the same. In some graphs or tables the data presented are outside specified operating range (i.e., outside specified VDD range). This is for information only and devices will operate properly only within the specified range. Note: The data presented in the device Data Sheet Characterization section is a statistical summary of data collected on units from different lots over a period of time and matrix samples. 'Typical' represents the mean of the distribution at, 25°C, while 'max' or 'min' represents (mean +3σ) and (mean -3σ) respectively, where σ is standard deviation. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39534A-page 33-3 Section 33. Device Characteristics Device Characteristics 33 33.3.1 IPD vs. VDD IPD is the current (I) that the device consumes when the device is in SLEEP mode (power-down), referred to as Power-down Current. These tests are taken with all I/O as inputs, either pulled high or low. That is, there are no floating inputs, nor are any pins driving an output (with a load). The characterization shows graphs for both the Watchdog Timer (WDT) disabled and enabled. This is required since the WDT requires an on-chip RC oscillator which consumes additional current. The device may have certain features and modules that can operate while the device is in SLEEP mode. Some of these modules are: • Watchdog Timer (WDT) • Brown-out Reset (BOR) circuitry • Timer1 • Analog to Digital converter • LCD module • Comparators • Voltage Reference If these features are operating while the device is in SLEEP mode, a higher current will be consumed. When all features are disabled, the device will consume the lowest possible current (the leakage current). If more then one feature is enabled, then the expected current can easily be calculated as the base current (everything disabled and in SLEEP mode), plus all delta currents. Example 33-1 shows an example of calculating the typical currents for a device at 5V, with the WDT and Timer1 oscillator enabled.

This test is taken with all I/O as inputs, either pulled high or low. That is, there are no floating inputs, nor are any pins driving an output (with a load). The IDD vs. Frequency charts measure the results on a Microchip automated bench setup, called the DCS (Data Collection System). The DCS accurately reflects the device and specified component values, that is, it does not add stray capacitance or current. 33.3.2.1 RC Measurements For the RC measurement, the DCS selects a resistor and capacitor value and then, varies the voltage over the specified range. As the voltage is changed, the frequency of operation changes. For a fixed RC, as VDD increases, the frequency increases. After the measurement at this RC has been taken, the RC value is changed and the measurements are taken again. Each point on the graph corresponds to a device voltage, resistor value (R), and capacitor value (C).

For this test, a crystal is multiplexed into the device circuit and the crystal’s capacitance values can be varied. The capacitance and voltage values are varied to determine the best characteristics (current, oscillator waveform and oscillator start-up), and then the currents are measured over voltage. The next crystal oscillator is then switched in and the procedure is repeated.

As the transconductance increases, the gain of the oscillator circuit increases, which causes the current consumption of the oscillator circuit to increase. Also, as the transconductance increases, the maximum frequency that the oscillator circuit can support also increases, or the start-up time of the oscillator decreases.

These tools can be broken down into the core development tools and the supplemental tools. The core tools are as follows: • MPLAB Integrated Development Environment, including full featured editor • Language Products - MPASM Assembler - MPLAB-CXX C Compiler -MPLAB-C17 -MPLAB-C18 - MPLINK/MPLIB Linker Librarian • MPLAB-SIM Software Simulator • Real-Time In-Circuit Emulators - MPLAB-ICE Real-Time Emulator In-Circuit - ICEPIC Low-Cost Emulator with Breakpoint debug capabilities • In-Circuit Debugger - MPLAB-ICD for 16F877 • Device Programmers - PRO MATE II Universal Programmer - PICSTART Plus Entry-Level Development Programmer • Development Boards - PICDEM-1 Low-Cost Demonstration Board - PICDEM-2 Low-Cost Demonstration Board - PICDEM-3 Low-Cost Demonstration Board - PICDEM-17 Low-Cost Demonstration Board - PICDEM-14A Low-Cost Demonstration Board The minimum configuration of MPLAB is the Integrated Development Environment (IDE), the assembler (MPASM), and the software simulator (MPLAB-SIM). Other tools are added to MPLAB as they are installed. This gives a common platform for the design activity, from the writing and assembling of the source code, through the simulation/emulation, to the programming of prototype devices. In addition to Microchip, there are many third party vendors. Microchip’s Third Party Handbook gives an overview of the manufactures and their tools. Note: The most current version may be downloaded from Microchip’s web site for free. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The IDE is called MPLAB. This gives a consistent look and feel to all the development tools so that minimal learning of the new tool interface is required. The MPLAB IDE integrates all the following aspects of development: • Source code editing • Project management • Machine code generation (from assembly or “C”) • Device simulation • Device emulation • Device programming MPLAB is a PC based Windows® application. It has been extensively tested using Windows 95 and recommended in either of these operating environments: • Windows 2000 • Windows NT 4.0 • Windows 98 • Windows 95 • Windows 3.X This comprehensive tool suite allows the complete development of a project without leaving the MPLAB environment.

MPLAB is a Windows based application that contains: • A full featured editor • Four operating modes - editor - simulator - emulator - programmer • A project manager • Customizable tool bar and key mapping • A status bar with project information • Extensive on-line help MPLAB allows you to: • Edit your source files. This includes: - MPASM assembly language - MPLAB-CXX ‘C’ language • One touch assemble (or compile) and download to PIC16/17 tools (automatically updates all project information) • Debug using: - source files - absolute listing file - program memory • Run up to four MPLAB-ICE emulators on the same PC • Run or Single-step - program memory - source file - absolute listing Microchip’s simulator, MPLAB-SIM, operates under the same platform as the MPLAB-ICE emulator. This allows the user to learn a single tool set which functions equivalently for both the simulator and the full featured emulator. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 4 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

This software program needs to be written in one of the programming languages for the device. Currently MPLAB supports two of Microchip’s language products: • Microchip Assembler (MPASM) • Microchip ‘C’ Compiler (MPLAB-CXX) • Other language products that support Common Object Description (COD) may also work with MPLAB 34.3.1 Assembler (MPASM) The MPASM Universal Macro Assembler is a PC-hosted symbolic assembler. It supports all Microchip microcontroller families. MPASM offers full featured Macro capabilities, conditional assembly, and several source and listing formats. It generates various object code formats to support Microchip's development tools as well as third party programmers. MPASM allow full symbolic debugging from the Microchip Universal Emulator System (MPLAB-ICE). MPASM has the following features to assist in developing software for specific use applications. • Provides translation of Assembler source code to object code for all Microchip microcontrollers. • Macro assembly capability. • Produces all the files (Object, Listing, Symbol, and Special) required for symbolic debug with Microchip’s emulator systems. • Supports Hex (default), Decimal and Octal source and listing formats. MPASM provides a rich directive language to support programming of the PICmicro. Directives are helpful in making the development of your assemble source code shorter and more maintainable. 34.3.2 C Compilers The MPLAB-CXX is a complete ‘C’ compiler for Microchip’s PICmicro family of microcontrollers. The compiler provides powerful integration capabilities and ease of use not found with other compilers. For easier source level debugging, the compiler provides symbol information that is compatible with the MPLAB IDE memory display, Watch windows, and File register windows. 34.3.2.1 MPLAB-C17 C Compiler The MPLAB-C17 Code Development System is a complete ANSI ‘C’ compiler and integrated development environment for Microchip’s PIC17CXXX family of microcontrollers. This compiler provides powerful integration capabilities and ease of use not found with other compilers. For easier source level debugging, the compiler provides symbol information that is compatible with the MPLAB IDE memory display. 34.3.2.2 MPLAB-C18 C Compiler The MPLAB-C18 Code Development System is a complete ANSI ‘C’ compiler and integrated development environment for Microchip’s PIC18CXXX family of microcontrollers. This compiler provides powerful integration capabilities and ease of use not found with other compilers. For easier source level debugging, the compiler provides symbol information that is compatible with the MPLAB IDE memory display. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39535A-page 34-7 Section 34. Development Tools Development Tools 34 34.3.3 MPLINK Linker MPLINK is a linker for the Microchip C compiler, MPLAB-CXX, and the Microchip relocatable assembler, MPASM. MPLINK is a relocatable linker for MPASM and MPLAB-C17 and MPLAB-C18. It can link relocatable objects from assembly or C source files along with precompiled libraries using directives from a linker script. MPLINK allows you to produce modular, re-usable code with MPLAB-CXX and MPASM. Control over the linking process is accomplished through a linker “script” file and with command line options. MPLINK ensures that all symbolic references are resolved and that code and data fit into the available PICmicro device. MPLINK combines multiple input object modules generated by MPLAB-CXX or MPASM, into a single executable file. The actual addresses of data and the location of functions will be assigned when MPLINK is executed. This means that you will instruct MPLINK to place code and data somewhere within the named regions of memory, not to specific physical locations. Once the linker knows about the ROM and RAM memory regions available in the target PICmicro device and it analyzes all the input files, it will try to fit the application’s routines into ROM and assign it’s data variables into available RAM. If there is too much code or too many variables to fit, MPLINK will give an error message. MPLINK also provides flexibility for specifying that certain blocks of data memory are re-usable, so that different routines (which never call each other and don’t depend on this data to be retained between execution) can share limited RAM space. MPLINK features include: • MPLINK works with MPASM and MPLAB-C17 and MPLAB-C18. • MPLINK allows all memory areas to be defined as sections to provide link-time flexibility. 34.3.4 MPLIB Librarian MPLIB is a librarian for use with COFF object modules, created using either MPASM, MPASMWIN, or MPLAB-CXX or later. MPLIB is a librarian for pre-compiled code to be used with MPLINK. When a routine from a library is called from another source file, only the modules that contain that routine will be linked in with the application. This allows large libraries to be used efficiently in many different applications. MPLIB manages the creation and modification of library files. A library file is a collection of object modules that are stored in a single file. There are several reasons for creating library files: • Libraries make linking easier. Since library files can contain many object files, the name of a library file can be used instead of the names of many separate object files when linking. • Libraries help keep code small. Since a linker only uses the required object files contained in a library, not all object files which are contained in the library necessarily wind up in the linker’s output module. • Libraries make projects more maintainable. If a library is included in a project, the addition or removal of calls to that library will not require a change to the link process. • Libraries help convey the purpose of a group of object modules. Since libraries can group together several related object modules, the purpose of a library file is usually more understandable that the purpose of its individual object modules. For example, the purpose of a file named “math.lib” is more apparent that the purpose of 'power.o', 'ceiling.o', and 'floor.o'. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 7 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39535A-page 34-8  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 34.4 MPLAB-SIM Simulator Software The software simulator is a no-cost tool with which to evaluate Microchip’s products and designs. The use of the simulator greatly helps debug software, particularly algorithms. Depending on the complexity of a design project, a time/cost benefit should be looked at comparing the simulator with an emulator. For projects that have multiple engineers in the development, the simulator in conjunction with an emulator, can keep costs down and will allow speedy debug of the tough problems. MPLAB-SIM Simulator simulates the PICmicro series microcontrollers on an instruction level. On any given instruction, the user may examine or modify any of the data areas or provide external stimulus to any of the pins. The input/output radix can be set by the user and the execution can be performed in; single step, execute until break, or in a trace mode. MPLAB-SIM supports symbolic debugging using MPLAB-CXX, and MPASM. The Software Simulator offers the low cost flexibility to develop and debug code outside of the laboratory environment making it an excellent multi-project software development tool. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 8 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Development Tools Development Tools 34 34.5 MPLAB® Emulator Hardware Support Microchip offers two emulators, a high-end version (MPLAB-ICE) and a low-cost version (ICEPIC). Both versions offer a very good price/feature value, and the selection of which emulator should depend on the feature set that you wish. For people looking at doing several projects with Microchip devices (or using the high-end devices), the use of MPLAB-ICE may offset the additional investment, through time savings achieved with the sophisticated breakpoint and trace capabilities. 34.6 MPLAB® High Performance Universal In-Circuit Emulator with MPLAB IDE The MPLAB-ICE Universal In-Circuit Emulator is intended to provide the product development engineer with a complete microcontroller design tool set for PICmicro microcontrollers (MCUs). Software control of MPLAB-ICE is provided by the MPLAB Integrated Development Environment (IDE), which allows editing, “make” and download, and source debugging from a single environment. Interchangeable target probes allow the system to be easily re-configured for emulation of different processors. The universal architecture of the MPLAB-ICE allows expansion to support all new Microchip microcontrollers. The MPLAB-ICE Emulator System has been designed as a real-time emulation system with advanced features that are generally found on more expensive development tools. A CE compliant version of MPLAB-ICE is available for European Union (EU) countries. 34.6.1 ICEPIC: Low-Cost PIC16CXXX In-Circuit Emulator ICEPIC is a low-cost in-circuit emulator solution for the Microchip Base-line and Mid-Range families of 8-bit OTP microcontrollers. ICEPIC features real-time emulation. ICEPIC is available under the MPLAB environment. ICEPIC is designed by Neosoft Inc. and is manufactured under license by RF Solutions. Other emulator solutions may be available directly from RF solutions. 34.7 MPLAB-ICD In-Circuit Debugger Microchip’s In-Circuit Debugger, MPLAB-ICD, is a powerful, low-cost run-time development tool. This tool is based on the FLASH PIC16F877 and can be used to develop for this and other PICmicro microcontrollers from the PIC16CXXX family (see TB033 for more information). MPLAB-ICD utilizes the In-Circuit Debugging capability built into the PIC16F87X. This feature, along with Microchip’s In-Circuit Serial Programming protocol, offers cost-effective in-circuit FLASH programming and debugging from the graphical user interface of the MPLAB Integrated Development Environment. This enables a designer to develop and debug source code by watching variables, single-stepping and setting break points. Running at full speed enables testing hardware in real-time. The MPLAB-ICD is also a programmer for the flash PIC16F87X family. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 9 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39535A-page 34-10  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 34.8 MPLAB Programmer Support Microchip offers two levels of device programmer support. For most bench setups the PICSTART Plus is sufficient. When true system qualification is done, the PRO MATE II should be the minimum used, due to the validation of program memory at VDD min and VDD max for maximum reliability 34.8.1 PRO MATE® II: Universal Device Programmer The PRO MATE II Universal Programmer is a full-featured programmer capable of operating in stand-alone mode as well as PC-hosted mode. PRO MATE II operates under MPLAB or as a DOS command driven program. The PRO MATE II has programmable VDD and VPP supplies which allows it to verify programmed memory at VDD min and VDD max for maximum reliability. It has an LCD display for error messages, keys to enter commands and a modular detachable socket assembly to support various package types. In stand-alone mode, the PRO MATE II can read, verify, or program Base-Line, Mid-Range, and High-End devices. It can also set configuration and code-protect bits in this mode. The PRO MATE II programmer also supports Microchip’s Serial EEPROM and KEELOQ® Security devices. A separate In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP) module is available for volume programming in a manufacturing environment. See the Programming module documentation for specific application requirements. 34.8.2 PICSTART® Plus Low-Cost Development Kit The PICSTART Plus programmer is an easy-to-use, low-cost development programmer. It connects to the PC via one of the COM (RS-232) ports. MPLAB Integrated Development Environment software makes using the programmer simple and efficient. PICSTART Plus is not recommended for production programming, since it does not perform memory verification at VDDMIN and VDDMAX. PICSTART Plus supports all Base-Line, Mid-Range, and High-End devices. For devices with up to more than 40 pins, an adapter socket is required. DIP packages are the form factor that are directly supported. Other package types may be supported with adapter sockets. Note: The use of a PICSTART Plus Programmer is not recommended for ICSP. If ICSP is required, the use of the PRO MATE II Universal Programmer with the associated socket module is the recommended Microchip solution. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 10 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

The advantage of including diagnostic code is that the device continually displays its status and the operational flow of the program. These suggestions only scratch the surface of the possible techniques and good programming practices. Future revisions of this section will add additional suggestions on good programming practice and diagnostic techniques. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39536A-page 35-3 Section 35. Code Development Code Development 35 35.2 Good Practice The following are some recommended programming practices. These will help ensure consistent program operation based on the stimulus supplied to the application software. 35.2.1 Use of Symbolic Code Microchip supplies header files which use the register and bit name symbols specified in the device data sheets. The use of these symbols aids in several facets of software development. First, symbolic code makes the source file easier to read since the names relate to a function (as opposed to register addresses and bit positions). Example 35-1 shows two implementations. The first, though technically correct, is more difficult to follow then the second implementation. Also, the second allows for easier migration between devices (and PICmicro families) since any remapping of bit positions and register locations can automatically be handled by the software tool. Example 35-1:Hard Coding vs. Symbolic Code 35.2.2 Initialization of Data Memory All Data Memory locations (SFRs and GPRs) should be initialized after a RESET. This will ensure that they are at a known state when the application code accesses each location, and ensures consistent operation When all data memory is not initialized, there is a possibility that the application software will read a location that is an indeterminate value. This may cause unexpected results from the application software. This issue is sometimes highlighted when development moves from a windowed device (where the window was not covered) to an OTP package.

This is typically seen in the Interrupt Service Routine where only the expected sources for an interrupt are tested for. Example 35-2 shows a typical way that the conditions are tested, while Example 35-3 shows a more robust version. The TrapRoutine may do more then just loop waiting for a RESET. It could output a code on an I/O pin to indicate that this unexpected condition occurred. Example 35-2:Typical ISR Code Example 35-3:Recommended ISR Code (with Trap) 35.2.4 Filling Unused Locations In most application programs, not all program memory locations are used. These unprogrammed locations (0xFFFF) execute as a NOP instruction. Since program execution is never intended to go to one of these locations, the program should trap any occurrence of this. A good way to handle this is to “fill” all unprogrammed locations with a branch which goes to its own program memory location. With this, the WDT must be enabled to cause a device RESET and restart program execution. The Microchip Assembler supplies a directive to do this. This directive is the “fill” directive.

DS39536A-page 35-5 Section 35. Code Development Code Development 35 35.3 Diagnostic Code Techniques This section describes diagnostic code that can be embedded into the application code to help track the operation of the application software. Typically some mechanism is required to make the information available to the external world. This can be from a serial port (such as the Addressable USART module) or from extra I/O pins not used by the application. 35.3.1 Function Sequence Have the diagnostic code output a unique code (value) for each function that the program enters. This allows the flow of the program to be monitored from outside the device (with a logic analyzer) and assist in determining if there is some unexpected condition that is causing code to execute in the observed sequence. 35.3.2 Stack Depth A counter can be implemented that is incremented in each function that is called and each time that the program counter is at an interrupt vector address. The counter is then decremented at the end of the function or interrupt service routine. The value of the stack can then be output to indicate if the stack depth is out of its normal range (minimum and maximum). 35.3.3 A/D Operation Visibility into the operation of the A/D can help validate the operation. Monitoring if the acquisition time is the expected time delay, as well as the result generated by the module. Achieving the A/D result accuracy depends on may factors, some internal and many external. The major internal factor is that there is a sufficient amount of time once the input channel is selected, until the conversion is started. This is called the acquisition time (TACQ). 35.3.3.1 A/D Acquisition Time Use an I/O pin to indicate when the acquisition of the channel starts (toggle high) until the conversion is started (toggle high). If the input channel is changed force the I/O to toggle high. The last two I/O toggles before the A/D result is available, is acquisition time that the A/D had for that selected channel. 35.3.3.2 A/D Result Output the result so that you can determine if the program execution flow can be attributed to the result from the A/D converter. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 5 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39536A-page 35-6  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 35.4 Example Scenario and Implementation In this example application, one I/O port is not implemented. This means that there are eight I/O pins available to indicate the operational status of the PICmicro device and the flow of the application software. Let’s say that the code implements 57 functions, the A/D is used and Addressable USART are used. Six bits (Code5:Code0) are required to uniquely specify the 57 functions. After each function gets a code, an additional 7 codes are available. Table 35-1 shows how these codes could be defined, while Table 35-2 shows how the diagnostic output port could be defined. Table 35-1: Definitions of Additional Codes Table 35-2: PORT Function assignment So, as the device exits RESET, the PORT = ‘1111 11xx’ where the xx indicates the source of the device RESET. Then the code for the main function is output on Rx7:Rx2 and Rx1:Rx0 = ‘00’. As each function gets called, the stack depth is output. This requires that the code Rx7:Rx2 = ‘1111 11’ is output, then the stack depth counter is moved to the PORT. The code for the entered function is then output. After the A/D is enabled and acquisition of the selected channel begins, the Rx1 pin is toggled high. Each event that causes the input to start a new acquisition time should cause the Rx1 pin to toggle.

Code Development Code Development 35 35.5 Implications of Using a High Level Language (HLL) The use of a High Level Language, such as a C compiler, speeds the development cycle but can increase the difficulty in the use of diagnostic code. When writing at the high level, functions may be defined, but how the C compilers will implement those functions is hidden from the user. If the function is used only once, the C complier may put that code in-line or use a GOTO to branch to the function and a GOTO to return from the function. In both these implementations, the stack is not affected. Also, if the function is called many times, but is small, it may be put inline. This again will not affect the stack used. These techniques used by the compiler may lead to efficient code generation, but may add to the difficulty in adding diagnostic code. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 7 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39536A-page 35-8  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. 35.6 Revision History Revision A This is the initial released revision for the Code Development with a PICmicro device description. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 8 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Appendix APPENDIX A: I2C OVERVIEW This appendix provides an overview of the Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C™) bus, with Subsection A.2 “Addressing I2C Devices” discussing the operation of the SSP modules in I2C mode. The I2C bus is a two-wire serial interface. The original specification, or standard mode, is for data transfers of up to 100 Kbps. An enhanced specification, or fast mode (400 Kbps) is supported. Standard and Fast mode devices will operate when attached to the same bus, if the bus operates at the speed of the slower device. The I2C interface employs a comprehensive protocol to ensure reliable transmission and reception of data. When transmitting data, one device is the “master” which initiates transfer on the bus and generates the clock signals to permit that transfer, while the other device(s) acts as the “slave.” All portions of the slave protocol are implemented in the SSP module’s hardware, except general call support, while portions of the master protocol need to be addressed in the PIC16CXX software. The MSSP module supports the full implementation of the I2 C master protocol, the general call address, and data transfers up to 1 Mbps. The 1 Mbps data transfers are supported by some of Microchips Serial EEPROMs. Table A-1 defines some of the I2C bus terminology. In the I2C interface protocol each device has an address. When a master wishes to initiate a data transfer, it first transmits the address of the device that it wishes to “talk” to. All devices “listen” to see if this is their address. Within this address, a bit specifies if the master wishes to read-from/write-to the slave device. The master and slave are always in opposite modes (transmitter/receiver) of operation during a data transfer. That is, they can be thought of as operating in either of these two relations: • Master-transmitter and Slave-receiver • Slave-transmitter and Master-receiver In both cases the master generates the clock signal. The output stages of the clock (SCL) and data (SDA) lines must have an open-drain or open-collector in order to perform the wired-AND function of the bus. External pull-up resistors are used to ensure a high level when no device is pulling the line down. The number of devices that may be attached to the I2C bus is limited only by the maximum bus loading specification of 400 pF and addressing capability.

A.1 Initiating and Terminating Data Transfer During times of no data transfer (idle time), both the clock line (SCL) and the data line (SDA) are pulled high through the external pull-up resistors. The START and STOP conditions determine the start and stop of data transmission. The START condition is defined as a high to low transition of the SDA when the SCL is high. The STOP condition is defined as a low to high transition of the SDA when the SCL is high. Figure A-1 shows the START and STOP conditions. The master generates these conditions for starting and terminating data transfer. Due to the definition of the START and STOP conditions, when data is being transmitted, the SDA line can only change state when the SCL line is low.

A.2 Addressing I2C Devices There are two address formats. The simplest is the 7-bit address format with a R/W bit (Figure A-2). The more complex is the 10-bit address with a R/W bit (Figure A-3). For 10-bit address format, two bytes must be transmitted. The first five bits specify this to be a 10-bit address format. The 1st transmitted byte has 5 bits which specify a 10-bit address, the two MSbs of the address, and the R/W bit. The second byte is the remaining 8 bits of the address.

DS39537A-page 36-5 Section 36. Appendix Appendix 36 A.3 Transfer Acknowledge All data must be transmitted per byte, with no limit to the number of bytes transmitted per data transfer. After each byte, the slave-receiver generates an acknowledge bit (ACK) (Figure A-4). When a slave-receiver doesn’t acknowledge the slave address or received data, the master must abort the transfer. The slave must leave SDA high so that the master can generate the STOP condition (Figure A-1). Figure A-4: Slave-Receiver Acknowledge If the master is receiving the data (master-receiver), it generates an acknowledge signal for each received byte of data, except for the last byte. To signal the end of data to the slave-transmitter, the master does not generate an acknowledge (not acknowledge). The slave then releases the SDA line so the master can generate the STOP condition. The master can also generate the STOP condition during the acknowledge pulse for valid termination of data transfer. If the slave needs to delay the transmission of the next byte, holding the SCL line low will force the master into a wait state. Data transfer continues when the slave releases the SCL line. This allows the slave to move the received data or fetch the data it needs to transfer before allowing the clock to start. This wait state technique can also be implemented at the bit level, Figure A-5.

DS39537A-page 36-7 Section 36. Appendix Appendix 36 When a master does not wish to relinquish the bus (which occurs by generating a STOP condition), a repeated START condition (Sr) must be generated. This condition is identical to the START condition (SDA goes high-to-low while SCL is high), but occurs after a data transfer acknowledge pulse (not the bus-free state). This allows a master to send “commands” to the slave and then receive the requested information or to address a different slave device. This sequence is shown in Figure A-8. Figure A-8: Combined Format Combined format: S Combined format - A master addresses a slave with a 10-bit address, then transmits Slave Address R/W A Data A/A Sr P (read) Sr = repeated Transfer direction of data and acknowledgment bits depends on R/W bits.

A.4 Multi-master The I2C protocol allows a system to have more than one master. This is called a multi-master system. When two or more masters try to transfer data at the same time, arbitration and synchronization occur. A.4.1 Arbitration Arbitration takes place on the SDA line, while the SCL line is high. The master which transmits a high when the other master transmits a low, loses arbitration (Figure A-9) and turns off its data output stage. A master which lost arbitration can generate clock pulses until the end of the data byte where it lost arbitration. When the master devices are addressing the same device, arbitration continues into the data. Figure A-9: Multi-Master Arbitration (Two Masters) Masters that also incorporate the slave function, and have lost arbitration must immediately switch over to slave-receiver mode. This is because the winning master-transmitter may be addressing it. Arbitration is not allowed between: • A repeated START condition • A STOP condition and a data bit • A repeated START condition and a STOP condition Care needs to be taken to ensure that these conditions do not occur.

Appendix Appendix 36 A.4.2 Clock Synchronization Clock synchronization occurs after the devices have started arbitration. This is performed using a wired-AND connection to the SCL line. A high to low transition on the SCL line causes the concerned devices to start counting off their low period. Once a device clock has gone low, it will hold the SCL line low until its SCL high state is reached. The low to high transition of this clock may not change the state of the SCL line, if another device clock is still within its low period. The SCL line is held low by the device with the longest low period. Devices with shorter low periods enter a high wait-state, until the SCL line comes high. When the SCL line comes high, all devices start counting off their high periods. The first device to complete its high period will pull the SCL line low. The SCL line high time is determined by the device with the shortest high period, Figure A-10.

If such a device does stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal, it must output the next data bit to the SDA line TR max.+TSU;DAT = 1000 + 250 = 1250 ns (according to the standard-mode I2C bus specification) before the SCL line is released. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39537A-page 36-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

Appendix Appendix 36 APPENDIX E: MIGRATION TIPS This appendix gives an overview of some things that need to be taken into account when migrating code from other PICmicro families to the PIC18CXXX. For additional information, please also refer to the following application notes: • AN716 • AN726 Three major changes Timer0 has from the mid-range family are: 1. The Timer0 no longer shares the prescaler with the Watchdog Timer. 2. Timer0 has 16-bit as well as 8-bit capability. 3. Timer0 can now be turned off. The default state for Timer0 is an 8-bit counter for downward compatibility with the mid-range Timer0. The prescaler is no longer shared between the Timer0 module and the Watchdog Timer. Each have their own separate prescalers. Thus, a prescaler assignment for the Timer0 has no effect on the Watchdog Timer, and vice-versa. T1OSCEN bit is now OSCEN. The program space is implemented as a single contiguous block, as compared to Microchip’s mid-range and high-end controllers that divided the program memory into pages. If interrupt priority is not used, all interrupts are treated as high priority, and function the same way as in mid-range and high-end controllers. If interrupt priority is not used (all interrupt priority bits are set), GIE and PEIE/GIEL function the same as mid-range and high-end controllers. Look-up tables are implemented two ways in the 18CXXX devices. The Computed Goto is compatible with the PIC16CXXX and PIC17CXXX parts. Code written for those devices will run on the PIC18CXXX devices with little or no change. Table reads are implemented on the PIC17CXXX and PIC18CXXX devices. However, table operations on the PIC18CXXX work differently than on the PIC17CXXX. Note: The Timer0 prescaler is not shared with the watchdog as a postscaler. The Watchdog Timer has its own dedicated postscaler. The control bits and prescaler select bits are implemented as EPROM configuration bits. Note: To achieve a 1:1 prescaler assignment for the TMR0 register, turn off the TMR0 prescaler (PSA is cleared). 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 15 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39537A-page 36-16  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. E.1 Differences to the Mid-Range CCP module The CCP1 and CCP2 modules function exactly as the modules of the mid-range devices with two exceptions: 1. The time base used for capture and compare of the CCP module can come from either Timer1 or Timer3. The default time base for both CCP modules when configured as a capture or compare mode is Timer1. Timer3 can be selected by configuring the Timer3 T3CCPx control bits in the Timer3 control register. 2. A toggle on compare mode has been added to the CCP modules. E.1.1 Compatibility to PIC16CXX Interrupts When the IPE bit in the RCON register is clear, the GIE/GIEH bit (INTCON<7>) is the global interrupt enable for all interrupts. The PEIE/GIEL bit (INTCON<6>) is still used to enable peripheral interrupts. The high priority interrupt vector is the same as the PIC16CXX interrupt vector and returns will work the same way. ISR code written for the PIC16CXX devices run unchanged as long as IPE=0. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 16 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

APPENDIX H: REVISION HISTORY Revision A This is the initial released revision of the Enhanced MCU Reference Guide Appendix. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 28 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39538A-page 37-1 Glossary 37 Section 37. Glossary A A/D See description under "Analog to Digital (A/D)". Access RAM This is a region of data memory RAM that can be accessed regardless of the currently selected bank. This allows special function registers to be accessed by the instruction without changing the currently selected bank. Access RAM also contains some General Purpose Registers (GPRs). This is useful for the saving of required variables during context switching (such as during an interrupt). Acquisition Time (TACQ) This is related to Analog to Digital (A/D) converters. This is the time that the PIC18CXXX A/D’s holding capacitor acquires the analog input voltage level connected to it. When the GO bit is set, the analog input is disconnected from the holding capacitor and the A/D conversion is started. ALU Arithmetical Logical Unit. Device logic that is responsible for the mathematical (add, subtract, ...), logical (and, or, ...), and shifting operation. Analog to Digital (A/D) The conversion of an analog input voltage to a ratiometric digital equivalent value. Assembly Language A symbolic language that describes the binary machine code in a readable form. AUSART Addressable Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter. This module can either operate as a full duplex asynchronous communications port, or a half duplex synchronous communications port. When operating in the asynchronous mode, the USART can be interfaced to a PC’s serial port. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 1 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39538A-page 37-2  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. B Bank This is a method of addressing Data Memory. Since enhanced devices have 8-bits for direct addressing, instructions can address up to 256 bytes. To allow more data memory to be present on a device, data memory is partitioned into contiguous banks of 256 bytes each. To select the desired bank, the bank selection register (BSR) needs to be appropriately configured. 16 banks can be implemented. Baud Generally this is how the communication speed of serial ports is described. Equivalent to bits per second (bps). BCD See description under "Binary Coded Decimal (BCD)". Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) Each 4-bit nibble expresses a digit from 0-9. Usually two digits are contained in a byte yielding a range of 0 - 99. BOR See description under "Brown-out Reset (BOR)". Brown-out A condition where the supply voltage of the device temporarily falls below the specified minimum operation point. This can occur when a load is switched on and causes the system/device voltage to drop. Brown-out Reset (BOR) Circuitry which will force the device to the RESET state if the device’s power supply voltage falls below a specified voltage level. Some devices have an internal BOR circuit, while other devices would require an external circuit to be created. Bus width This is the number of bits of information that a bus carries. For the Data Memory, the bus width is 8-bits. For enhanced devices the Program Memory bus width is 16-bits. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 2 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39538A-page 37-3 Section 37. Glossary Glossary 37 C Capture A function of the CCP module in which the value of a timer/counter is “captured” into a holding register module when a predetermined event occurs. CCP Capture, Compare, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). The CCP module can be configured to operate as an input capture, or a timer compare, or a PWM output. Compare A function of the CCP module in which the device will perform an action when a timer’s register value matches the value in the compare register. Compare Register A 16-bit register that contains a value that is compared to the 16-bit TMR1 register. The compare function triggers when the counter matches the contents of the compare register. Capture Register A 16-bit register that is loaded with the value of the 16-bit TMR1 register when a capture event occurs. Configuration Word This is a non-volatile memory location that specifies the characteristics that the device will have for operation (such as oscillator mode, WDT enable, start-up timer enables). These characteristics can be specified at the time of device programming. For EPROM memory devices, as long as the bit is a '1', it may at a later time be programmed as a '0'. The device must be erased for a '0' to be returned to a '1'. Conversion Time (Tconv) This is related to Analog to Digital (A/D) converters. This is the time that the PIC18CXXX A/D’s converter requires to convert the analog voltage level on the holding capacitor to a digital value. CPU Central Processing Unit. Decodes the instructions, and determines the operands and operations that are needed for program execution. Arithmetic, logical, or shift operations are passed to the ALU. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 3 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39538A-page 37-4  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. D D/A See description under "Digital to Analog". DAC Digital to analog converter. Data Bus The bus which is used to transfer data to and from the data memory. Data EEPROM Data Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory. This memory is capable of being programmed and re-programmed by the CPU to ensure that in the case of a power loss, critical values/variables are retained in the non-volatile memory. Data Memory The memory that is on the Data Bus. This memory is volatile (SRAM) and contains both the Special Function Registers and General Purpose Registers. Direct Addressing When the Data Memory Address is contained in the Instruction. The execution of this type of instruction will always access the data at the embedded address.

A portion of the data memory that can be used to store the program’s dynamic variables. H Harvard Architecture In this architecture, the Program Memory and Data Memory buses are separated. This allows concurrent accesses to Data Memory and Program Memory, which increases the performance of the device. All PICmicro devices implement a Harvard Architecture. Holding Capacitor This is a capacitor in the Analog to Digital (A/D) module which “holds” an analog input level once a conversion is started. During acquisition, the holding capacitor is charged/discharged by the voltage level on the analog input pin. Once the conversion is started, the holding capacitor is disconnected from the analog input and “holds” this voltage for the A/D conversion. HS High Speed. One of the device oscillator modes. The oscillator circuit is tuned to support the high frequency operation. Currently this allows for operation from 4 MHz to 25 MHz. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 5 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39538A-page 37-6  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. I I 2C Inter-Integrated Circuit. This is a two wire communication interface. This feature is one of the modes of the "SSP" and "MSSP" modules. Indirect Addressing When the Data Memory Address is not contained in the Instruction, the instruction operates on the INDF address, which causes the Data Memory Address to be the value in the FSR register. The execution of the instruction will always access the data at the address pointed to by the FSR register. Instruction Bus The bus which is used to transfer instruction words from the program memory to the CPU. Instruction Fetch Due to the Harvard architecture, when one instruction is to be executed, the next location in program memory is “fetched” and ready to be decoded as soon as the currently executing instruction is completed. Instruction Cycle The events for an instruction to execute. There are four events which can generally be described as: Decode, Read, Execute, and Write. Not all events will be done by all instructions. To see the operations during the instruction cycle, please look at the description of each instruction. Four external clocks (Tosc) make one instruction cycle (TCY). Interrupt A signal to the CPU that causes the program flow to be forced to the Interrupt Vector Address (04h in program memory). Before the program flow is changed, the contents of the Program Counter (PC) are forced onto the hardware stack, so that program execution may return to the interrupted point. INTRC Internal Resistor-Capacitor (RC). Some devices have a device oscillator option that allows the clock to come from an internal RC combination. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 6 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

LED Light Emitting Diode. Useful for giving visual status of a system. Literal This is a constant value that is embedded in an instruction word. Long Word Instruction An instruction word that embeds all the required information (opcode and data) into a single word. This ensures that every instruction is accessed and executed in a single instruction cycle. LP One of the device oscillator modes. Used for low frequency operation which allows the oscillator to be tuned for low power consumption. Operation is up to 200 kHz. LSb Least Significant Bit. LSB Least Significant Byte. M Machine cycle This is a concept where the device clock is divided down to a unit time. For PICmicro devices, this unit time is 4 times the device oscillator (4TOSC), also known as TCY. MSb Most Significant Bit. MSB Most Significant Byte. MSSP Master Synchronous Serial Port. The MSSP has two operational functions. The first is a "Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)" and the second is the Inter-Integrated Circuit ("I2 C"). The I2C function supports both master and slave functions in hardware. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 7 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39538A-page 37-8  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. N Non-Return to Zero (NRZ) Two-level encoding used to transmit data over a communications medium. A bit value of '1' indicates a high voltage signal. A bit value of '0' indicates a low voltage signal. The data line defaults to a high level. NRZ See description under "Non-Return to Zero (NRZ)". O Opcode The portion of the 16-bit instruction word that specifies the operation that needs to occur. The opcode is of variable length depending on the instruction that needs to be executed. The opcode varies from 4-bits to 8-bits. The remainder of the instruction word contains program or data memory information. Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) This timer counts 1024 crystal/resonator oscillator clock cycles before releasing the internal RESET signal. OST See description under "Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)". 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 8 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM  2000 Microchip Technology Inc. DS39538A-page 37-9 Section 37. Glossary Glossary 37 P Pages Method of addressing the Program Memory. Mid-range devices have 11-bit addressing for CALL and GOTO instructions, which gives these instructions a 2-Kword reach. To allow more program memory to be present on a device, program memory is partitioned into contiguous pages, where each page is 2-Kwords. To select the desired page, the page selection bits (PCLATCH<5:4>) need to be appropriately configured. Since there are presently 2 page selection bits, 4 pages can be implemented. The enhanced devices do not have paging. PIC16CXXX code migrates to the PIC18CXXX without modification (with respect to paging). Optimization may be implemented. Parallel Slave Port (PSP) A parallel communication port which is used to interface to a microprocessor’s 8-bit data bus. POP A term used to refer to the action of restoring information from a stack (software and/or hardware). See "Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)". Postscaler A circuit that slows the rate of the interrupt generation (or WDT Reset) from a counter/timer by dividing it down. Power-on Reset (POR) Circuitry which determines if the device power supply voltage rose from a powered down level (0V). If the device power supply voltage is rising from ground, a device RESET occurs and the PWRT is started. Power-up Timer (PWRT) A timer which holds the internal RESET signal low for a timed delay to allow the device voltage to reach the valid operating voltage range. Once the timer times out, the OST circuitry is enabled (for all crystal/resonator device oscillator modes). Prescaler A circuit that slows the rate of a clocking source to a counter/timer. Program Bus The bus used to transfer instruction words from the program memory to the CPU. Program Counter A register which specifies the address in program memory that contains the next instruction to execute. Program Memory Any memory that is on the program memory bus. Static variables may be contained in program memory, such as tables. PSP See description under "Parallel Slave Port (PSP)". Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) A serial signal in which the information is contained in the width of a (high) pulse of a constant frequency signal. A PWM output, from the CCP module, of the same duty cycle requires no software overhead. PUSH A term used to refer to the action of saving information onto a stack (software and/or hardware).

Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) This is one of the modes of the "SSP" and "MSSP" modules. This is typically a 3-wire interface, with a data out line, a data in line, and a clock line. Since the clock is present, this is a synchronous interface. SFR Special Function Register. These registers contain the control bits and status information for the device. Single Cycle Instruction An instruction that executes in a “single” machine cycle (TCY). SLEEP This is a low power mode of the device, where the device’s oscillator circuitry is disabled. This reduces the current the device consumes. Certain peripherals may be placed into modes where they continue to operate. Special Function Registers (SFR) These registers contain the control bits and status information for the device. SPI See description under "Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)". SSP Synchronous Serial Port. The SSP has two operational functions. The first is a "Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)"and the second is the Inter-Integrated Circuit ("I2 C"). The I2C function supports the slave function in hardware and has additional status information to support a software implemented master. Stack A portion of the CPU that retains the return address for program execution. The stack gets loaded with the value in the Program Counter when a CALL instruction is executed or if an interrupt occurs. 39500 18C Reference Manual.book Page 11 Monday, July 10, 2000 6:12 PM PIC18C Reference Manual DS39538A-page 37-12  2000 Microchip Technology Inc.

User Guide DS00002389B-page 4 1. Host Driver Architecture The following figure shows the architecture of the WINC host driver software, which runs on the host MCU. Figure 1-1. Host Driver Software Architecture The ATWINC15x0 host driver software is a C library, which provides the host MCU application with necessary APIs to perform necessary WLAN and socket operations. The components of the host driver are described in the following sub-sections. 1.1 WLAN API This module provides an interface to the application for all Wi-Fi operations and any non-IP related operations. This includes the following services: • Wi-Fi STA management operations – Wi-Fi scan – Wi-Fi connection management (connect, disconnect, connection status, and so on) – WPS activation/deactivation • Wi-Fi AP enable/disable • Wi-Fi power save control API This interface is defined in the m2m_wifi.h file. 1.2 Socket API This module provides the socket communication APIs that are mostly compliant with the well-known BSD sockets to enable rapid application development. To comply with the nature of the MCU application environment, there are differences in API prototypes and in usage of some APIs between the WINC sockets and BSD sockets.

User Guide DS00002389B-page 10 3. WINC Initialization and Simple Application After powering-up the WINC device, a set of synchronous initialization sequences must be executed, for the correct operation of the Wi-Fi functions. This chapter aims to explain the different steps required during the initialization phase of the system. After initialization, the host MCU application is required to call the WINC driver entry point to handle events from the WINC firmware. • BSP Initialization • WINC Host Driver Initialization • Socket Layer Initialization • Call WINC Driver Entry Point Note:  The initialization sequence must be completed to successfully operate the WINC start-up procedure. 3.1 BSP Initialization The BSP is initialized by calling the nm_bsp_init API. The BSP initialization routine performs the following steps: • Resets the WINC1 using the corresponding host MCU control GPIOs. • Initializes the host MCU GPIO which connects to the WINC interrupt line. It configures the GPIO as an interrupt source to the host MCU. During runtime, the WINC interrupts the host to notify the application of events and data pending inside the WINC firmware. • Initializes the host MCU delay function used within nm_bsp_sleep implementation. 3.2 WINC Host Driver Initialization The WINC host driver is initialized by calling the m2m_wifi_init API. The host driver initialization routine performs the following steps: • Initializes the bus wrapper and SPI peripheral. The compilation flag CONF_WINC_USE_SPI must be enabled in conf_winc.h (bus interfaces CONF_WINC_USE_UART and CONF_WINC_USE_I2C are currently not supported). • Registers an application-defined Wi-Fi event handler. • Initializes the driver and ensures compatibility between the WINC firmware version and the driver version. • Initializes the host interface and the Wi-Fi layer and registers the BSP Interrupt. Note:  A Wi-Fi event handler is required for the correct operation of any WINC application. 3.3 Socket Layer Initialization Socket layer initialization is carried out by calling the socketInit API. It must be called prior to any socket activity. For more information about socket initialization and programming, refer to WINC Sockets API. 1 Refer to the ATWINC15x0-MR210xB Data Sheet (DS70005304) for more information about the hardware power-up/down sequence. ATWINC15x0 WINC Initialization and Simple Application © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 11 3.4 WINC Event Handling The WINC host driver API allows the host MCU application to interact with the WINC firmware. To facilitate interaction, the WINC driver implements the Host Interface (HIF) Protocol as described in Section 15 “Host Interface (HIF) Protocol”. The HIF protocol defines how to serialize and de-serialize API requests and response callbacks over the serial bus interface SPI (I2C and UART are currently not supported). Figure 3-1. WINC System Architecture The WINC host driver API provides services to the host MCU applications that are mainly divided in two major categories: Wi-Fi control services and Socket services. The Wi-Fi control services allow actions such as channel scanning, network identification, connection and disconnection. The Socket control services allow application data transfer once a Wi-Fi connection is established. 3.4.1 Asynchronous Events Some APIs in the ATWINC15x0 host driver are synchronous function calls, where the result is ready by the return of the function. However, most API functions in the ATWINC15x0 host driver are asynchronous. This means that when the application calls an API to request a service, the call is non-blocking and returns immediately, before the requested action is completed. When completed, a notification is provided in the form of a HIF protocol message from the WINC firmware to the host which, in turn, is delivered to the application via a callback2 function. Asynchronous operation is essential when the requested service such as Wi-Fi connection may take significant time to complete. In general, the ATWINC15x0 firmware uses asynchronous events to signal the host driver about status change or pending data. The HIF uses push architecture where the data and events are pushed from the ATWINC15x0 firmware to the host MCU in a First-Come First-Served (FCFS) manner. For instance, the host MCU application has two open sockets: socket 1 and socket 2. If the ATWINC15x0 receives socket 1 data followed by socket 2 data, then HIF delivers socket data in two HIF protocol messages in the order in which it is received. HIF does not allow reading socket 2 data before socket 1 data. 3.4.2 Interrupt Handling The HIF interrupts the host MCU when one or more events are pending in the ATWINC15x0 firmware. The host MCU application is a big state machine which processes received data and events when the 2 The callback is C function which contains an application-defined logic. The callback is registered using the ATWINC15x0 host driver registration API to handle the result of the requested service. ATWINC15x0 WINC Initialization and Simple Application © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 12 ATWINC15x0 driver calls the event callback function(s). To receive event callbacks, the host MCU application is required to call the m2m_wifi_handle_events API to let the host driver retrieve and process the pending events from the ATWINC15x0 firmware. It is recommended to call this function if any of the following events occur: • The host MCU application polls the API in main loop or a dedicated task • When the host MCU receives an interrupt from the ATWINC15x0 firmware Note:  All the application-defined event callback functions registered with the ATWINC15x0 driver run in the context m2m_wifi_handle_events API. The above HIF architecture allows the ATWINC15x0 host driver to be flexible to run in the following configurations: • Host MCU with no operating system configuration – the MCU main loop is responsible to handle deferred work from the interrupt handler • Host MCU with operating system configuration – a dedicated task or thread is required to call m2m_wifi_handle_events to handle deferred work from the interrupt handler Note:  1. Host driver entry point m2m_wifi_handle_events is non-reentrant. In the operating system configuration, it is required to protect the host driver from reentrance by a synchronization object. 2. When the host MCU is polling m2m_wifi_handle_events, the API checks for pending unhandled interrupt from the ATWINC15x0. If no interrupt is pending, it returns immediately. If an interrupt is pending, m2m_wifi_handle_events sequentially reads all the pending HIF messages and dispatches the HIF message content to the respective registered callback. If a callback is not registered to handle the type of message, the HIF message content is discarded. 3.5 Example Code The following example code shows the initialization flow, as described in the previous sections. static void wifi_cb(uint8_t u8MsgType, void *pvMsg) { } int main (void) { tstrWifiInitParam param; nm_bsp_init(); m2m_memset((uint8*)¶m, 0, sizeof(param)); param.pfAppWifiCb = wifi_cb; /*intilize the WINC Driver*/ ret = m2m_wifi_init(¶m); if (M2M_SUCCESS != ret){ M2M_ERR("Driver Init Failed <%d>\n",ret); while(1); } while(1){ /* Handle the app state machine plus the WINC event handler */ while(m2m_wifi_handle_events(NULL) != M2M_SUCCESS) { } } } ATWINC15x0 WINC Initialization and Simple Application © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 13 4. ATWINC15x0 Configuration The ATWINC15x0 firmware offers a set of configurable parameters that control its behavior. There is a set of APIs provided to the host MCU application to configure these parameters. The configuration APIs are categorized according to their functionality, into device, network and power saving parameters. Any parameters left unset by the host MCU application use their default values assigned during the initialization of the ATWINC15x0 firmware. A host MCU application needs to configure its parameters when coming out of cold boot or when a specific configuration change is required. 4.1 Device Parameters 4.1.1 System Time It is important to set the WINC system to UTC time to ensure a proper validity check of the X509 certificate expiration date. Since the WINC does not contain a built-in Real-Time Clock (RTC), there are two ways to obtain UTC time: • Using the internal SNTP client – this is enabled by default in the WINC firmware at start-up. The SNTP client synchronizes the WINC system clock to the UTC time from the time servers. The NTP server that SNTP client uses can be configured using the API m2m_wifi_configure_sntp. The default NTP server used by the WINC is time-c.nist.gov. The SNTP client uses a default update cycle of one day. • From the host MCU RTC – if the host MCU has a RTC, the application may disable the SNTP client by calling m2m_wifi_enable_sntp(0) (by passing zero as the argument) after the WINC initialization. The application provisions the WINC system time by calling m2m_wifi_set_system_time API. 4.1.2 Firmware and Driver Version During initialization (m2m_wifi_init), the host driver checks the compatibility between the driver and the WINC firmware. The relevant parameters are: • M2M_HIF_MAJOR_VALUE • M2M_HIF_MINOR_VALUE Note:  These parameters are stated in release note version information as “Host Interface Level: X.Y”. If the driver and the WINC firmware have the same values of M2M_HIF_MAJOR_VALUE, then they are deemed compatible and m2m_wifi_init returns with M2M_SUCCESS. If the driver and the WINC firmware have different values of M2M_HIF_MAJOR_VALUE, then they are deemed incompatible and m2m_wifi_init returns with M2M_ERR_FW_VER_MISMATCH. In this case, communication is limited; the only permitted communication is for the driver to request the WINC firmware to switch to the WINC firmware image in the inactive partition of WINC flash, via m2m_wifi_check_ota_rb and m2m_ota_switch_firmware. Example code to handle this situation is available in the driver file m2m_ota.h. 4.2 WINC Modes of Operation The WINC firmware supports the following modes of operation: ATWINC15x0 ATWINC15x0 Configuration © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 14 • Idle mode • Wi-Fi STA mode • Wi-Fi Hotspot (AP) Figure 4-1. WINC Modes of Operation IDLE AP STA m2_wifi_connect m2m_wifi_default_connect M2M_WIFI_RESP_CON_STATE_CHANGED m2m_wifi_disconnect m2m_wifi_disable_ap m2m_wifi_enable_ap 4.2.1 Idle Mode After the host MCU application calls the ATWINC15x0 driver initialization m2m_wifi_init API, the ATWINC15x0 remains in Idle mode waiting for any command to change the mode or to update the configuration parameters. In this mode, the ATWINC15x0 enters into Power Save mode which disables the IEEE 802.11 radio and all unneeded peripherals and suspends the ATWINC15x0 CPU. If the ATWINC15x0 receives any configuration commands from the host MCU, it updates the configuration, sends back the response to the host MCU, and then returns to the Power Save mode. 4.2.2 Wi-Fi Station Mode The ATWINC15x0 enters Station (STA) mode when the host MCU requests connection to an AP using the m2m_wifi_connect or m2m_wifi_default_connect APIs. Note:  m2m_wifi_connect is deprecated from v19.6.1 and above. For more details, see 5.3 Wi-Fi Security. The ATWINC15x0 exits STA mode when it receives a disconnect request from the Wi-Fi AP conveyed to the host MCU application via the event callback M2M_WIFI_RESP_CON_STATE_CHANGED or when the host MCU application decides to terminate the connection via m2m_wifi_disconnect API. Note:  The supported API functions in this mode use the HIF command types: tenuM2mConfigCmd and tenuM2mStaCmd. See the full list of commands in the m2m_types.h header file. For more information about STA mode, refer to Wi-Fi Station Mode. 4.2.3 Wi-Fi Hotspot (AP) Mode In AP mode, the WINC allows Wi-Fi stations to connect and obtain the IP address from the WINC DHCP server. To enter AP mode, the host MCU application calls m2m_wifi_enable_ap API. To exit AP mode, the application calls m2m_wifi_disable_ap API. The supported API functions in this mode use the HIF command types: tenuM2mApCmd and tenuM2mConfigCmd. See the full list of commands in the m2m_types.h header file. For more information about this mode, refer to Wi-Fi AP Mode. ATWINC15x0 ATWINC15x0 Configuration © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 15 4.3 Network Parameters 4.3.1 Wi-Fi MAC Address The WINC firmware provides two methods to assign the WINC MAC address: • Assignment from the host MCU – this method occurs when the host MCU application calls the m2m_wifi_set_mac_address API after initialization using m2m_wifi_init API. • Assignment from the WINC OTP (One-Time-Programmable) memory – the WINC supports an internal MAC address assignment method through a built-in OTP memory. If MAC address is programmed in the WINC OTP memory, the WINC working MAC address defaults to the OTP MAC address unless the host MCU application programmatically sets a different MAC address after initialization using the API m2m_wifi_set_mac_address. Note:  • OTP MAC address is programmed in the WINC OTP memory at the time of manufacturing. • Use m2m_wifi_get_otp_mac_address API to check if there is a valid programmed MAC address in the WINC OTP memory. The host MCU application can also use the same API to read the OTP MAC address octets. m2m_wifi_get_otp_mac_address API not to be confused with the m2m_wifi_get_mac_address API which reads the working WINC MAC address in the WINC firmware regardless from whether it is assigned from the host MCU or from the WINC OTP. • For more details on API, refer to the Atmel Software Framework for ATWINC1500 (Wi-Fi). 4.3.2 IP Address The ATWINC15x0 firmware uses the embedded DHCP client to automatically obtain an IP configuration after a successful Wi-Fi connection. DHCP is the preferred method and therefore it is used as a default method. After the IP configuration is obtained, the host MCU application is notified by the asynchronous event M2M_WIFI_REQ_DHCP_CONF. Alternatively, the host MCU application can set a static IP configuration by calling the m2m_wifi_set_static_ip API. Before setting a static IP address, it is recommended to disable DHCP using the API m2m_wifi_enable_dhcp(0) and then set the static IP as shown below. In Main(), disable dhcp after m2m_wifi_init as shown below /* Initialize Wi-Fi driver with data and status callbacks. */ param.pfAppWifiCb = wifi_cb; ret = m2m_wifi_init(¶m); if (M2M_SUCCESS != ret) { printf("main: m2m_wifi_init call error!(%d)\r\n", ret); while (1) {} } m2m_wifi_enable_dhcp(0); Set Static IP when WINC is connected to AP as shown below. static void wifi_cb(uint8_t u8MsgType, void *pvMsg) { switch (u8MsgType) { case M2M_WIFI_RESP_CON_STATE_CHANGED: { tstrM2mWifiStateChanged *pstrWifiState = (tstrM2mWifiStateChanged *)pvMsg; if (pstrWifiState->u8CurrState == M2M_WIFI_CONNECTED){ printf("Wi-Fi connected\r\n"); tstrM2MIPConfig ip_client; ip_client.u32StaticIP = _htonl(0xc0a80167); // Provide the required Static IP ATWINC15x0 ATWINC15x0 Configuration © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 16 ip_client.u32DNS = _htonl(0xc0a80101); // Provide DNS server details ip_client.u32SubnetMask = _htonl(0xFFFFFF00); // Provide the SubnetMask for the currently connected AP ip_client.u32Gateway = _htonl(0xc0a80101); // Provide the GAteway IP for the AP printf("Wi-Fi setting static ip\r\n"); m2m_wifi_set_static_ip(&ip_client); } } } 4.4 Power Save Modes The WINC firmware supports multiple Power Save modes which provide flexibility to the host MCU application to tweak the system power consumption. The host MCU can configure the WINC Power Saving policy using the m2m_wifi_set_sleep_mode and m2m_wifi_set_lsn_int APIs. The WINC supports the following Power Save modes: • M2M_PS_MANUAL • M2M_PS_DEEP_AUTOMATIC • M2M_PS_AUTOMATIC (deprecated, not be used in new implementations) • M2M_PS_H_AUTOMATIC (deprecated, not be used in new implementations) Note:  M2M_PS_DEEP_AUTOMATIC mode recommended for most applications. 4.4.1 M2M_PS_MANUAL This is a fully host-driven Power Save mode. • The WINC sleeps when the host uses the m2m_wifi_request_sleep API. During this period, the host MCU can also sleep for extended durations. • The WINC wakes up when the host MCU application requests services from the WINC by calling any host driver API function, for example, Wi-Fi or socket operation. Note:  In M2M_PS_MANUAL mode, when the WINC sleeps due to m2m_wifi_request_sleep API, the WINC does not wake up to receive and monitor AP beacon. Beacon monitoring is resumed when the host MCU application wakes up the WINC. For an active Wi-Fi connection, the AP may exit the connection if the WINC is unavailable due to long sleep time. If connection is dropped, the WINC detects the disconnection on the next wake-up cycle and notifies the host to reconnect to the AP again. To maintain an active Wi-Fi connection for extended durations, the host MCU application must periodically wake up the WINC in order to send a keep-alive Wi-Fi frame to the AP. The host must carefully choose the sleep period to satisfy the tradeoff between keeping the Wi-Fi connection uninterrupted and minimizing the system power consumption. This mode is useful for applications which send notifications very rarely due to a certain trigger. It also fits applications which periodically send notifications with a very long spacing between notifications. Careful power planning is required when using this mode. If the host MCU decides to sleep for a longer period, it may use M2M_PS_MANUAL or may power off the WINC3 . The advantage of this mode compared to powering off the WINC is that M2M_PS_MANUAL saves the time required for the WINC firmware to boot since the firmware is always loaded in the WINC memory. The real advantage and disadvantage depend on the nature of the application. In some applications, the sleep duration can be long enough to be a 3 Refer to the ATWINC15x0-MR210xB Data Sheet (DS70005304) for more information about the hardware power-up/down sequence. ATWINC15x0 ATWINC15x0 Configuration © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 17 power-efficient decision to power off the WINC and then power it on again and reconnect to the AP when the host MCU wakes up. In other situations, a latency-sensitive application may choose to use M2M_PS_MANUAL to avoid the WINC firmware boot latency on the expense of slightly increased power consumption. During the WINC Sleep mode, the WINC in M2M_PS_MANUAL mode saves more power than M2M_PS_DEEP_AUTOMATIC mode. In M2M_PS_MANUAL mode, the WINC skips beacon monitoring whereas in M2M_PS_DEEP_AUTOMATIC mode, it wakes up to receive beacons. The comparison also includes the effect of the host MCU sleep duration: if the host MCU sleeps for a longer period, the Wi-Fi connection may frequently drop and the power advantage of the M2M_PS_MANUAL mode is lost due to the power consumed in the Wi-Fi reconnection. In contrast, the M2M_PS_DEEP_AUTOMATIC mode can keep the Wi-Fi connection for long durations at the expense of waking up the WINC to monitor the AP beacon. 4.4.2 M2M_PS_AUTOMATIC This mode is deprecated and kept for backward compatibility and development reasons. It is not recommended to use in new implementations. 4.4.3 M2M_PS_H_AUTOMATIC This mode is deprecated and kept for backward compatibility and development reasons. It is not recommended to use in new implementations. 4.4.4 M2M_PS_DEEP_AUTOMATIC This mode implements the Wi-Fi standard power-saving method in the WINC module. The WINC sleeps and periodically wakes up to monitor AP beacons. The AP is required to buffer data while stations are in Power Save mode and transmit data when stations wake-up. The AP periodically transmits a beacon frame to synchronize with a network for every beacon period. A station, which is in Power Save mode, periodically wakes up to receive the beacon. The beacon conveys information to the station about pending unicast data, which are buffered inside the AP while the station was in Sleep mode. The beacon also provides information about the broadcast/multicast data. In this mode, the WINC module enters into Sleep state by turning off the IEEE 802.11 radio, MAC, and system clock. Prior to entering the Sleep mode, the ATWINC15x0 programs a hardware timer (running on an internal low-power oscillator) with a sleep period determined by the WINC firmware power management module. Any of the following events can wake-up the WINC module from Sleep state: • Expiry of the hardware sleep timer. The WINC wakes up to receive the upcoming beacon from AP. • The WINC wakes up4 when the host MCU application requests services from the WINC by calling any host driver API function, for example, Wi-Fi or socket operation. 4.5 Configuring Listen Interval and DTIM Monitoring The WINC allows the host MCU application to tweak system power consumption by configuring beacon monitoring parameters. The AP periodically send beacons for every DTIM period (for example, 100 ms). The beacon contains a TIM element which informs the station about the unicast data for the station that are buffered in the AP. The station negotiates with the AP for a listen interval. The listen interval tells the AP for how many beacon periods the station will sleep before it wakes up to receive data buffered in the 4 The wake-up sequence is internally handled in the WINC host driver by the hif_chip_wake API. Refer to Section 15 “Host Interface Protocol” for more information. ATWINC15x0 ATWINC15x0 Configuration © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 18 AP. Some APs might drop buffered data after Listen Interval elapses if the data is not retrieved by the station. The WINC driver allows the host MCU application to configure beacon monitoring parameters as follows: • Configure DTIM monitoring – that is to enable or disable reception of broadcast/multicast data using the following API: – m2m_wifi_set_sleep_mode(desired_mode, 1) to receive broadcast data – m2m_wifi_set_sleep_mode(desired_mode, 0) to ignore broadcast data • Configure the listen interval – using the m2m_wifi_set_lsn_int API Note:  Listen interval value provided to the m2m_wifi_set_lsn_int API is expressed in the unit of beacon period.

Wi-Fi Station Mode This chapter provides information about the WINC Wi-Fi Station (STA) mode as described in Wi-Fi Station Mode. The STA mode involves a scan operation; association to an AP using parameters (SSID and credentials) provided by the host MCU or using AP parameters stored in the WINC nonvolatile storage (default connection). The chapter also provides information about supported security modes along with code examples. 5.1 Scan Configuration Parameters 5.1.1 Scan Region The number of RF channels supported varies by geographical region. For example, 13 channels are supported in Asia while 11 channels are supported in North America. By default, the WINC initial region configuration is equal to 14 channels, but this can be changed by setting the scan region using the m2m_wifi_set_scan_region API. The scan region can be selected from the enum tenuM2mScanRegion. 5.1.2 Scan Options During Wi-Fi scan operation, the WINC sends probe request Wi-Fi frames and waits for the scan wait time to receive probe response frames in the current Wi-Fi channel. After the scan wait time, the WINC switches to the next channel. Increasing the scan wait time increases the possibility to detect more number of access points during scan operation but this leads to more power consumption and overall scan duration. The WINC firmware default scan wait time is optimized to provide the tradeoff between the power consumption and scan accuracy. The WINC firmware provides flexible configuration options to allow the host MCU application to set the scan time. For more details, refer to the m2m_wifi_set_scan_options API. 5.2 Wi-Fi Scan A Wi-Fi scan operation can be initiated by calling the m2m_wifi_request_scan API. The scan can be performed on all 2.4GHz Wi-Fi channels or on a specific requested channel. The scan response time depends on the scan options which can be set by calling m2m_wifi_set_scan_options(tstrM2MScanOption* ptstrM2MScanOption). For instance, if the host MCU application requests to scan all channels, the scan time is equal to NoOfChannels (13) * ptstrM2MScanOption->u8NumOfSlot * ptstrM2MScanOption->u8SlotTime. The scan operation is illustrated in the following figure. ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 20 Figure 5-1. Wi-Fi Scan Operation 5.3 Wi-Fi Security The following types of security are supported in the WINC Wi-Fi STA mode. • OPEN • WEP (Wired Equivalent Protocol) • WPA/WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access - Personal Security mode that is Passphrase) • 802.1X (WPA/WPA2-Enterprise security) For 802.1X Enterprise Security, the following authentication methods are supported from ATWINC1500 firmware version 19.6.1. • EAP-TLS • EAP-PEAPv0/TLS • EAP-PEAPv1/TLS • EAP-TTLSv0/MSCHAPv2 • EAP-PEAPv0/MSCHAPv2 ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 21 • EAP-PEAPv1/MSCHAPv2 The m2m_wifi_connect is deprecated from v19.6.1 and above firmware. The legacy APIs m2m_wifi_connect and m2m_wifi_connect_sc are available as wrappers for the new APIs. Functionally its behavior is unchanged from previously released drivers. The recommended API for various security type such as OPEN, WEP, WPA/WPA2, 802.1X are summarized in the Table 5-1. All new connect APIs, enable connection to a particular access point by specifying its BSSID and the SSID. To restrict connection to a specific access point, the application can specify the BSSID (in addition to SSID) in the argument tstrNetworkId -> pu8Bssid. The application can instruct the WINC whether to store the credentials or not to store in Flash and also whether the saved credentials must be encrypted or not. This is done by configuring the enum tenuCredStoreOption. For enterprise security, the application can configure WINC to send actual identity or use anonymous identity during phase 1 authentication. This can be done by setting or clearing bUnencryptedUserName in argument tstrAuth1xTls or tstrAuth1xMschap2. For more details on usage of API m2m_wifi_connect_1x_tls, refer ASF (v3.42 or above) example "WINC1500 Connecting a EAP-TLS / PEAPv0 with TLS / PEAPv1 with TLS Secured AP Example". For more details on usage of API m2m_wifi_connect_1x_mschap2, refer ASF (v3.42 or above) example "WINC1500 Connecting a EAP-TTLSv0 with MSCHAPv2 / EAP-PEAPv0 with MSCHAPv2 / EAP-PEAPv1 with MSCHAPv2 Secured AP Example". 5.4 On Demand Wi-Fi Connection The host MCU application may establish a Wi-Fi connection on demand when all the required connection parameters (SSID, security credentials, and so on.) are known to the application. To start a Wi-Fi connection on demand, the application calls the following APIs based on the security type. Table 5-1. List of APIs based on Security Type Security Type API Open m2m_wifi_connect_open WEP m2m_wifi_connect_wep WPA/WPA2 m2m_wifi_connect_psk 802.1x with MSCHAPv2 m2m_wifi_connect_1x_mschap2 802.1x with TLS m2m_wifi_connect_1x_tls Alternatively, the application can call the API m2m_wifi_connect to connect with an access point which supports Open, WEP, WPA/WPA2 and 802.1x with MSCHAPv2. m2m_wifi_connect is deprecated in v19.6.1 and is kept for legacy purpose. Note:  Using the API in the Table 5-1 implies that the host MCU application has prior knowledge of the connection parameters. For instance, connection parameters can be stored on nonvolatile storage attached to the host MCU. The Wi-Fi on demand connection operation is described in the following figure.

This API does not require AP information to establish the connection. Note:  The connection profile information is automatically stored in the WINC Flash when on-demand WiFi connection API is called (see Table 5-1). Saving of this connection profile is dependent on the enum tenuCredStoreOption. The credentials such as passphrase of the AP or Enterprise certificate and other parameters like SSID, IP address, BSSID are encrypted using AES128-CBC before they are written into the serial Flash. This makes it difficult for an attacker to retrieve the sensitive information even if an attacker has physical access to the device. If there is no cached profile or if a connection cannot be established with any of the cached profile, an event of type M2M_WIFI_RESP_DEFAULT_CONNECT is delivered to the host driver indicating failure. Upon successful default connection, the host application can read the current Wi-Fi connection status by calling m2m_wifi_get_connection_info API. The m2m_wifi_get_connection_info is an asynchronous API. The actual connection information is provided in the asynchronous event M2M_WIFI_RESP_CONN_INFO in Wi-Fi callback. The callback parameter of type tstrM2MConnInfo provides information about AP SSID, RSSI (AP received power level), security type, IP address obtained by DHCP. Note:  A connection profile is cached in the serial Flash if and only if the connection is successfully established with the target AP. The Wi-Fi default connection operation is shown in the following figure. ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 25 Figure 5-3. Wi-Fi Default Connection 5.6 Encrypted Credential Storage In ATWINC15x0 firmware v19.6.1 and above, the credentials such as passphrase of the AP or Enterprise certificate and other parameters like SSID, IP address, BSSID are encrypted using AES128-CBC before they are written into the serial Flash. This makes it difficult for an attacker to retrieve the sensitive information inspite of having physical access to the device. The encryption provided by this feature must not be considered secure. The encryption is only intended to prevent credentials being revealed in plain text by an opportunistic read of ATWINC15x0 Flash. Therefore, other security practices must be followed where possible, such as changing passwords regularly and deleting credentials when they are no longer required. When requesting for a connection to a network, the application can specify how the connection credentials must be stored in ATWINC15x0 Flash. The options are as follows: • Do not store credentials • Store credentials unencrypted • Store credentials encrypted The credentials consist of: • SSID • BSSID (if provided) • WEP key (for WEP connection) • Passphrase and PSK (for WPA/WPA2 PSK connection) • Domain, User name and Password (for WPA/WPA2 1x MSCHAPv2 connection) • Domain, User name, Certificate and Private Key (for WPA/WPA2 1x TLS connection) ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 26 The credentials are stored in ATWINC15x0 Flash when connection succeeds, and only one set of credentials is stored at a time; if new credentials need to be stored then the old credentials are removed (overwritten with 0’s). If credentials are stored in ATWINC15x0 Flash, then the application can request subsequent connections without providing the credentials again, using m2m_wifi_default_connect. If roaming is enabled, roaming can take place regardless of whether the credentials are stored in ATWINC15x0 Flash. (They are stored in data memory for the duration of a connection.) The application can delete credentials from ATWINC15x0 Flash using m2m_wifi_delete_sc. Note:  Version 19.6.1 firmware implements a new format for the ATWINC15x0 Flash store for connection parameters. The effects of this are: • During a firmware upgrade to v19.6.1, previously stored credentials are reformatted. After the first successful connection to an access point, these stored credentials are encrypted. • During a firmware upgrade to v19.6.1, previously stored IP address and Wi-Fi channel are deleted. • After a firmware downgrade from v19.6.1 to previous firmware, credentials stored by v19.6.1 firmware are not readable by the previous firmware. The operation of the previous firmware is otherwise unaffected. 5.7 Simple Roaming Simple Roaming is a custom feature which is supported by WINC firmware version 19.6.1 and above. With Simple Roaming feature enabled, the ATWINC1500 configured as station can move around in an ESS area with multiple access point. The WINC automatically switches to another AP which has the same SSID, authentication procedure and credentials with better signal strength. Roaming enables a station to change its AP while remaining connected to the network. The following figure explains the simple roaming feature. ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 27 Figure 5-4. Simple Roaming STA AP in Range New AP Old AP (1) Probe Request (Ch 1) (2) Probe Response (Ch 1) (1) Probe Request (Ch n) (2) Probe Response (Ch n) (5) Authentication Request (6) Authentication Reply (7) Reassociation Request (12) Reassociation Reply (8) Send Security Block (9) Ack Security Block (10) Move Notify (11) Move Response In v19.6.1, the WINC roam occurs on link-loss detection with the existing AP, which is determined by tracking beacons and sending NULL frame keep-alive packets. ISO/OSI Layer 2 roaming occurs when the WINC roams from one AP to another AP, both of which are inside the same IP subnet. Layer 3 roaming occurs when the WINC roams from one AP to another AP which are in different subnets, whereby the WINC attempts to obtain a new IP address within the new subnet via DHCP. As a result of layer 3 roaming, any existing network connections is broken, and the upper layer protocols handle this IP address change if a continuous connection is required in layers 4 and above. Roaming algorithm is internal to WINC firmware. The Host MCU can enable or disable the roaming functionality using the API's m2m_wifi_enable_roaming and m2m_wifi_disable_roaming. The roaming must be called after the WINC initialization. When roaming is enabled, if the WINC successfully roamed to a new AP, then the M2M_WIFI_RESP_CON_STATE_CHANGED message with state as M2M_WIFI_ROAMED is sent to host MCU. If the WINC is not able to find a new AP, then M2M_WIFI_RESP_CON_STATE_CHANGED message with state as M2M_WIFI_DISCONNECTED is sent to the host MCU. The API call m2m_wifi_enable_roaming() sets the ATWINC15x0 to detect link-loss, and when link loss is detected with the existing access point, the following roaming steps are performed. • A precautionary de-authentication frame is sent to the old AP. • Scanning is performed to determine if there is an AP within the same ESS as the previous AP in the vicinity. • If an AP is found, authentication and re-association messages are exchanged with the new AP, followed by a normal 4-way security handshake in the case of WPA/WPA2, or an EAPOL exchange in the case of 802.1x Enterprise security. ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 28 • A DHCP request is sent to the new AP to attempt to retain the same IP address. A notification event is sent to the host MCU of type M2M_WIFI_RESP_CON_STATE_CHANGE with the state of M2M_WIFI_ROAMED. Additionally, an M2M_WIFI_REQ_DHCP_CONF event conveying either the same or a new IP address is sent to the host MCU. • If there is any problem with the connection, or DHCP fails, then a de-authentication message is sent to the AP, and an M2M_WIFI_RESP_CON_STATE_CHANGED event is sent to the host MCU with the state set as M2M_WIFI_DISCONNECTED. The bEnableDhcp parameter enables control of whether or not a DHCP request is sent after roaming to a new AP. The API call m2m_wifi_disable_roaming is used to disable roaming. 5.8 Multiple Gain Table There are restrictions regarding the maximum transmit power of a wireless device according to the regulatory agencies of the region. For Wi-Fi devices, the maximum transmit power is limited according the regulation of the region in which the Wi-Fi device is used. The gain table can be used to configure the transmission power in WINC. The digital gain (DG) that are used for different channels and different data rates are stored in ATWINC15x0 Flash as a table called Gain table. In ATWINC15x0, the Power Amplifier (PA) and Pre-power Amplifier (PPA) values are configured in the firmware directly. The following figure shows the format of the gain table. Figure 5-5. Gain Table 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 1 -10 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -10 -9 -9 -9 2 -10 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -10 -9 -9 -9 5.5 -10 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -10 -9 -9 -9 11 -10 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -10 -9 -9 -9 6 -11 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -9 -7 -7 -7 9 -11 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -9 -7 -7 -7 12 -11 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -9 -7 -7 -7 18 -11 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -9 -7 -7 -7 24 -11 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -9 -7 -7 -7 36 -11 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -9 -7 -7 -7 48 -11 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 54 -11 -9 -9 -9 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -9 -8 -8 -8 mcs0 -12 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -10 -7 -7 -7 mcs1 -12 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -10 -7 -7 -7 mcs2 -12 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -10 -7 -7 -7 mcs3 -12 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -10 -7 -7 -7 mcs4 -12 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -10 -7 -7 -7 mcs5 -12 -8 -8 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -10 -7 -7 -7 mcs6 -12 -9 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -10 -8 -8 -8 mcs7 -12 -10 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -10 -9 -9 -9 1e9c 0 1edc 0 Data Rates Channels Digital Gain Specific Configuration The Gain tables are provided as part of firmware update package in form of .csv file available at src/ firmware/Tools/gain_builder/gain_sheets folder. The gain values are downloaded as part of complete download process. For more details, see "WINC Devices – Integrated Serial Flash Memory Download Procedure" document. Prior to v19.6.1 only one gain table was supported in ATWINC15x0, with which the WINC can only operate in one regulatory region without requiring different Flash content. The ATWINC15x0 firmware version 19.6.1 or above supports multiple gain table and the Flash can store up to four gain tables. The table can be selected by the Host MCU using the API m2m_wifi_set_gain_table_idx. If the ATWINC15x0 has to operate in multiple region with maximum ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 29 transmit power allowed in that region, multiple gain table feature can be used to select gain table (by Host MCU) based on the region in which the ATWINC15x0 is operated. 5.8.1 Writing the Gain Table to ATWINC15x0 The gain builder application uses multiple .csv files (up to a maximum of 4) and perform the necessary maths operations on the gain table to calculate the gain values and write them to the Flash: gain_builder [-table ] [-index ][-no_wait] [-port] Note:  The img_path* parameters specify the separate tables, and the index parameter specifies the default table to use on power up. 5.8.2 Selecting a Specific Gain Table Setting the specific gain table index is achieved using API m2m_wifi_set_gain_table_idx. The m2m_wifi_set_gain_table_idx must be called after the initialization and before any connection request. The corresponding gain tables must be available in the Flash. Note:  The ATWINC15x0 firmware release v19.6.1 contains only one gain table that can be used in all the region. 5.9 Host File Download The Host File Download is a feature supported in the ATWINC15x0 firmware version 19.6.1 and above. This feature is supported only in the ATWINC1510 device which has 8 Mb Flash. The ATWINC1500 only has 4 Mbit of Flash memory and therefore this feature is not supported for the ATWINC1500. With Host file download feature, the Host MCU can instruct the ATWINC1510 to download a file and save it in the ATWINC1510 Flash. The ATWINC1510 can download the file from a HTTP or a HTTPS web server only. The maximum size of file that can be stored in the ATWINC1510 is 508 KB. This feature is ideal for updating the firmware of host MCU. However, the feature is not limited to MCU OTA only. When performing MCU OTA updates, there is no enforced file format, so the Application Developer can choose a strategy to perform integrity check validation on the received file. The WINC does not perform any integrity check on the downloaded file and therefore, it is recommended that the Application do it instead. The feature is designed for single file support and allows for a maximum size of 508 KB. The driver protects against invalid access to the file stored in the WINC’s Flash by using file handlers to identify each file. If a new download starts or if the file is erased, access to the file partition is denied. Also, the application can request an explicit erase to delete the file from the ATWINC’s Flash, destroying any potentially confidential data. The API m2m_ota_host_file_get is used to download file from remote location and store it in ATWINC1500 Flash. The m2m_ota_host_file_get can be used to download only one file at a time. When the get file API is called again, the previously stored file is erased and new file download is initiated. To retrieve the downloaded file from the ATWINC1510 Flash, m2m_ota_host_file_read_spi or m2m_ota_host_file_read_hif API can be used by the host MCU. The completion of file download is notified through the callback registered in m2m_ota_host_file_get API. The user can use the m2m_ota_host_file_read_spi or m2m_ota_host_file_read_hif API by passing required arguments to initiate the file read from the WINC Flash. ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 30 5.9.1 Overview Whenever an application needs information which is stored in a file somewhere in a remote location, the application can use the Host File Download feature to retrieve the file from the remote location and temporarily store it in the WINC’s Flash. When a download is successfully completed, a file handler is generated and stored in NVM in the WINC, therefore it is valid even after a WINC reset. After a handler is generated, access to the file is possible via the provided APIs and reading of a file is possible via two mechanisms, HIF and SPI. In either case, the read operation requires the file handler of the file which the application is trying to access, if the handler being requested and the handler internally stored match, then the access is granted. The same procedure is valid for erasing the file. The use of a file handler avoids access to invalid data, for example when trying to concurrently access the file. The following figure depicts the steps which the WINC follows when performing a Host File Download. Figure 5-6. Host File Download Operation within the WINC OTA File Get Check Available Space Start Download OTA Get Successful OTA Get Failed Notify Host of the Result OK Failed Completed Failed The download starts only if the space available in Flash is enough to store the file which is requested to be downloaded. If Host File Download is requested in the ATWINC1500 (4 Mb Flash), the download fails since there is no Host File partition in Flash and therefore no space to store the file. The “Start Download” step causes any previously available valid file handler to be invalidated. When “OTA Get Successful” message is received, a new file handler is generated along with the status and the total size of the downloaded file, they are included in the Download completion notification sent to the host. 5.9.2 OTA Initialization To use the Host File Download feature, the WINC and the OTA driver must be initialized. The following is the procedure for OTA initialization: 1. m2m_wifi_init or m2m_wifi_reinit – this API is required to initialize the WINC and to set up the callback for the HIF communication. After this step, the WINC can be configured to connect to a network and download a file. For more details to understand when to use each of these two options, see the API documentation. ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 31 2. m2m_ota_init – this API registers the OTA callback, which is required to execute any callbacks configured through the Host File Download APIs and to notify the Application of file download status. 5.9.3 Using Host File Download for MCU OTA Host File Download allows an application to download a file from a remote location. The link to the file can be through a secure connection and once the file is downloaded, it is stored in the WINC's Flash and the Application is notified about it. The files to download can be of any kind and are not limited to MCU binaries, making this feature both flexible and powerful. One example would be the download of text files, which can hold, for instance, a file checksum, which can later be used by the Application to verify the integrity of the downloaded binary. An Host MCU OTA requires the following steps: • Provide an http/https link to the file to tell WINC to download the file from a specific remote location, which can be done using API m2m_ota_host_file_get. • Read the image from the WINC using spi_flash_read. Since there is a limitation currently in which the bootloader would also need to perform m2m_wifi_init, m2m_ota_init and only then it should do m2m_ota_host_file_read_spi to read the image from WINC. m2m_ota_host_file_read_hif and m2m_ota_host_file_read_spi are not used in the ASF Example for MCU OTA to keep the driver footprint small while working around the limitation described above. However, this limitation is only present when the Application needs to be reset, or in this case switch to a bootloader, the WINC driver will lose track of the file handler and will have to load it again through the initialization process. If no reset or shutdown need to be performed and if no different Application needs to be loaded after downloading the file, these two APIs can be used.

User Guide DS00002389B-page 32 Other steps that must be considered by the Application Developer are: • It is recommended to verify the integrity of the image using a checksum calculation and match it against a previously known checksum. The user can design the validation mechanism since no predefined file format is enforced for MCU OTA. • There is an option to erase the file from Flash. Although this is not mandatory before requesting a new download, it can be useful for security purposes, ensuring that sensitive data is unavailable after its use. Note:  The WINC does not perform any integrity check of any of the downloaded files via Host File Download and that must be checked by the application. 5.9.4 API Description For a more detailed description of the APIs, refer to WINC1500_SW_API.chm. 5.9.4.1 OTA File Get NMI_API sint8 m2m_ota_host_file_get ( unsigned char *pcDownloadUrl, tpfFileGetCb pfHFDGetCb ); This API is used to get a file which links to the file stored remotely. The link is passed to the WINC to establish a TCP connection to retrieve the file from that location. It is also possible to use a server configured for TLS. A callback must also be provided so that it is executed when the File Get operation completes. The status of the File Get is passed onto this callback and if the status is successful, the file handler generated by the WINC and the total size of the downloaded file is passed correctly to the callback. 5.9.4.2 File Get Callback typedef void (*tpfFileGetCb) ( uint8 u8Status, uint8 u8Handler, uint32 u32Size ); The callback for the File Get receives three arguments; status of the File Get request, file handler ID and the total size of the file. If the status is OTA_STATUS_SUCCESS, then the file handler and size can be used, otherwise its values are not populated. From the Application’s point of view, they must not be considered valid. The file handler is auto-generated in the WINC and it identifies the file. Only when a download finishes successfully, the corresponding file handler is generated. The handler is required to both read from the file or erase the file. Similarly, if the download is aborted or interrupted, then the handler is not generated, instead the handler will have the value of HFD_INVALID_HANDLER, which blocks any further operation on the Flash through the APIs. When the file download completes successfully, the total size of the download file is passed to the callback to notify the application. Using which the application tracks the total size of the downloaded data and the amount of data read. 5.9.4.3 OTA File Read HIF NMI_API sint8 m2m_ota_host_file_read_hif ( uint8 u8Handler, uint32 u32Offset, uint32 u32Size, ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 33 tpfFileReadCb pfHFDReadCb ); When the download completes, the file is stored in the WINC’s Flash. This API can be used to read the file from the WINC using HIF messages. It is mandatory to have a valid handler, not having one could mean that the file has been invalidated and therefore it must be unavailable for any operation. This protects read against invalid or corrupted data. The offset marks the position in bytes of Flash to read from, counting from the beginning of the file. Therefore, an offset of zero is translated as reading from the beginning of the file. Size specifies the amount of bytes to read, starting at the offset defined. The last argument is the callback to be executed when the read is complete. Advantages (vs SPI read) • While reading a file using HIF messages, the host can continue operation, being notified by an interrupt from the WINC when data read is complete. • Does not require the WINC to be reset after the read is complete. Disadvantages (vs SPI read) • File reads via HIF are slightly slower than reads via SPI. 5.9.4.4 File Read HIF Callback typedef void (*tpfFileReadCb) ( uint8 u8Status, void *pBuff, uint32 u32Size ); The callback is only executed after a file read via HIF messages and it receives three arguments. • The first argument is the status of the read, if the read is unsuccessful, then the other arguments will have irrelevant values. • The second argument is a pointer to the buffer of data read. • The third argument is size, which indicates the amount of data read and therefore contained in the buffer (maximum 128 bytes). Specifying large amounts of data to be read via the HIF may exceed the buffer maximum size (128 bytes), therefore it is recommended to use u32Size to offset a second read from within this callback. This requires the application to track the total size of the file and the amount of bytes read, requesting the reading of each section at a time until the end of the file is reached. 5.9.4.5 OTA File Read SPI NMI_API sint8 m2m_ota_host_file_read_spi ( uint8 u8Handler, uint8 *pu8Buff, uint32 u32Offset, uint32 u32Size ); The file read via SPI is similar to the read via HIF. The use of a callback is not considered, because to access the WINC’s Flash via SPI, the WINC must be set into a certain mode to allow for safe read/write of its Flash. Therefore, it is typical to use a loop to read all the data necessary while the WINC is in that state and then restart the WINC. To use this API, the application must call m2m_wifi_download_mode to make the WINC safe for read/ write Flash access and once the read is completed, the WINC must be reinitialized (m2m_wifi_reinit, ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 34 m2m_ota_init) and to connect to the network again if the Application based on the request. pu8Buff is a pointer to a buffer provided by the Application and to where the data will be read to. Advantages (vs HIF read) • SPI read is faster than HIF Read. Disadvantages (vs HIF read) • Requires the WINC to set into a special mode and restart later. • Generally blocks as the read are done within a loop to minimize WINC reset. 5.9.4.6 OTA File Erase API NMI_API sint8 m2m_ota_host_file_erase ( uint8 u8Handler, tpfFileEraseCb pfHFDEraseCb ); The File Erase API requires the following two arguments: • The first argument is a handler of the file to erase, to ensure that it is valid to perform a Flash erase. • The second argument is a callback which executes when the erase is complete. Having a callback to tell the Application when the erase has been completed is useful to act as a trigger for a subsequent operation (example, download a second file). Note:  The file erase performs an erase of the entire host file partition and any file handler is destroyed regardless of the end result of the erase operation in the WINC. Since the data in the Flash is partially or completely destroyed, the handlers are invalidated when the process starts for safety. 5.9.4.7 File Erase Callback typedef void (*tpfFileEraseCb) ( uint8 u8Status ); The callback for a File Erase receives the erase status of the operation. A status of OTA_STATUS_SUCCESS ensures that the data has been completely erased, any other result does not ensure that the data is still valid, but also do not ensure that the data has been completely erased. 5.9.4.8 OTA Abort API NMI_API sint8 m2m_ota_abort ( void ); If a Host File Download has been started and the Application decides to cancel the download, it can issue a call to this API to do so. This does not require any input parameter. Note:  This API is shared with the WINC OTA and if issued when a WINC OTA is in progress, the WINC OTA is canceled. 5.9.5 Limitations • Out of 512 KB of Flash in the ATWINC1510, the first sector (of size 4 KB) is used by the WINC for storing the file information for host file download feature. Which means that a total of 508 KB size of Flash can be used by application to store the host file. • The feature is only supported in ATWINC1510 since the ATWINC1500 only has 4 Mbit of Flash memory, which means there is no space to store a file. ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 35 • There is no file system and only one file is stored at a time. When the get file is called again, the previously stored file is erased and a new file download is initiated. • The WINC OTA firmware download and the Host OTA file download cannot run concurrently. • The WINC interprets 404 Not Found error when application attempts to download a broken or dead link and provides the OTA_STATUS_SERVER_ERROR error status. The WINC does not interpret any other message for broken link. The WINC downloads the error message into SPI Flash and indicates Host as file download. It is the application’s responsibility to check if the file is valid. 5.9.6 Built in Automated Test Equipment (ATE) Mechanism A factory flashed ATWINC15x0 module running the v19.6.1 firmware has a special ATE firmware in the Flash space reserved for OTA transfers (which is overwritten by the first OTA update). A host API can be called during WINC initialization that causes the device to boot into this special firmware (m2m_ate_init). The API to control the ATE functions provided by this firmware is detailed in \ASF\common\components\wifi\winc1500\driver\include\m2m_ate_mode.h. The following is the sample code. int main(void) { /* Initialize the board. */ system_init(); /* Initialize the UART console. */ configure_console(); printf(STRING_HEADER); /* Initialize the BSP. */ nm_bsp_init(); /*Check if initialization of ATE firmware is succeeded or not*/ if(M2M_SUCCESS == m2m_ate_init()) { /*Run TX test case if defined*/ #if (M2M_ATE_RUN_TX_TEST_CASE == ENABLE) start_tx_test(M2M_ATE_TX_RATE_1_Mbps_INDEX); #endif /*Run RX test case if defined*/ #if (M2M_ATE_RUN_RX_TEST_CASE == ENABLE) start_rx_test(); #endif /*De-Initialization of ATE firmware test mode*/ m2m_ate_deinit(); } else { M2M_ERR("Failed to initialize ATE firmware.\r\n"); while(1); } #if ((M2M_ATE_RUN_RX_TEST_CASE == ENABLE) && (M2M_ATE_RUN_TX_TEST_CASE == ENABLE)) M2M_INFO("Test cases have been finished.\r\n"); #else M2M_INFO("Test case has been finished.\r\n"); #endif while(1); } #if (M2M_ATE_RUN_TX_TEST_CASE == ENABLE) static void start_tx_test(uint8_t tx_rate) { tstrM2mAteTx tx_struct; ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi Station Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.

Socket Programming 6.1 Overview The ATWINC15x0 socket Application Programming Interface (API) allows the host MCU application to interact with intranet and remote internet hosts. The ATWINC15x0 socket API is based on the BSD (Berkeley) sockets. This chapter explains the ATWINC15x0 socket programming and how it differs from regular BSD sockets. Note:  The reader must have a basic understanding of the following topics before reading this chapter: • BSD sockets • TCP • UDP • Internet protocols 6.1.1 Socket Types The ATWINC15x0 socket API provides two types of sockets: • Datagram sockets (connectionless sockets) – uses the UDP protocol • Stream sockets (connection-oriented sockets) – uses the TCP protocol 6.1.2 Socket Properties Each ATWINC15x0 socket is identified by a unique combination of the following: • Socket ID – a unique identifier for each socket. This is the return value of the socket API. • Local socket address – a combination of the ATWINC15x0 IP address and port number assigned by the ATWINC15x0 firmware for the socket. • Protocol – transport layer protocol, either TCP or UDP. • Remote socket address – applicable only for TCP stream sockets. This is necessary since TCP is connection oriented. Each connection made to a specific IP address and port number requires a separate socket. The remote socket address can be obtained in the socket event callback which is described in the succeeding section. Note:  TCP port 53 and UDP port 53 represent two different sockets. 6.1.3 Limitations • The ATWINC15x0 sockets API support up to 7 TCP sockets and 4 UDP sockets. • The ATWINC15x0 sockets API support only IPv4. It does not support IPv6. 6.2 Sockets API 6.2.1 API Prerequisites • C header file socket.h – this includes all the necessary socket API function declarations. When using any ATWINC15x0 socket API as described in the following sections, the host MCU application must include the socket.h header file. • Initialization – the ATWINC15x0 socket API initializes once before calling any socket API function. This is done using the socketInit API described in Socket API Functions. ATWINC15x0 Socket Programming © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 39 6.2.2 Non-blocking Asynchronous Socket APIs Most ATWINC15x0 socket APIs are asynchronous function calls that do not block the host MCU application. The behavior of the ATWINC15x0 asynchronous APIs are described in Asynchronous Events. For example, the host MCU application can register an application-defined socket event callback function using the ATWINC15x0 socket API registerSocketCallback. When the host MCU application calls the socket API connect, the API returns a zero value (SUCCESS) immediately indicating that the request is accepted. The host MCU application must then wait for the ATWINC15x0 socket API to call the registered socket callback when the connection is established or if a connection time-out occurred. The socket callback function provides the necessary information to determine the connection status. 6.2.3 Socket API Functions The ATWINC15x0 socket API provides the following functions. 6.2.3.1 socketInit The host MCU application must call the API socketInit once during initialization. The API is a synchronous API. 6.2.3.2 registerSocketCallback The registerSocketCallback function allows the host MCU application to provide the ATWINC15x0 sockets with application-defined event callbacks for socket operations. The API is a synchronous API. The API registers the following callbacks: • The socket event callback • The DNS resolve callback The socket event callback is an application-defined function that is called by the ATWINC15x0 socket API whenever a socket event occurs. Within this handler, the host MCU application must provide an application-defined logic that handles the events of interest. The DNS resolve event handler is the application-defined function that is called by the ATWINC15x0 socket API to return the results of gethostbyname. By implication, this only occurs after the host MCU application has called the gethostbyname function. If successful, the callback provides the IP address for the desired domain name. 6.2.3.3 socket The socket function creates a new socket of a specified type and returns the corresponding socket ID. The API is a synchronous API. The socket ID is required by most other socket functions and is also passed as an argument to the socket event callback function to identify which socket generated the event. 6.2.3.4 connect The connect function is used with TCP sockets to establish a new connection to a TCP server. The connect function results in a SOCKET_MSG_CONNECT sent to the socket event handler callback upon completion. The connect event is sent when the TCP server accepts the connection or, if no remote host response is received, after a time-out interval of approximately 30 seconds. Note:  The SOCKET_MSG_CONNECT event callback provides a tstrSocketConnectMsg containing an error code. The error code value indicates: • Zero value to indicate the successful connection or ATWINC15x0 Socket Programming © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 40 • Negative value to indicate an error due to a time-out condition or if connect is used with UDP socket. The following figure shows the ATWINC15x0 socket API connect to remote server host. Figure 6-1. TCP Client API Call Sequence 6.2.3.5 bind The bind function can be used for server operation for both UDP and TCP sockets. It is used to associate a socket with an address structure (port number and IP address). The bind function call results to a SOCKET_MSG_BIND event sent to the socket callback handler with the bind status. Calls to listen, send, sendto, recv, and recvfrom functions must not be issued until the bind callback is received. 6.2.3.6 listen The listen function is used for server operations with TCP stream sockets. After calling the listen API, the socket accepts a connection request from a remote host. The listen function causes a SOCKET_MSG_LISTEN event notification to be sent to the host after the socket port is ready to indicate listen operation success or failure. ATWINC15x0 Socket Programming © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 41 When a remote peer establishes a connection, a SOCKET_MSG_ACCEPT event notification is sent to the application. 6.2.3.7 accept The accept function is deprecated and calling this API has no effect. It is kept only for backward compatibility. Note:  The listen API implicitly accepts the TCP remote peer connections request. Figure 6-2. TCP Server API Call Sequence Although the accept function is deprecated, the SOCKET_MSG_ACCEPT event occurs whenever a remote host connects to the ATWINC15x0 TCP server. The event message contains the IP address and port number of the connected remote host. 6.2.3.8 send The send function is used by the application to send data to a remote host. The send function can be used to send either UDP or TCP data depending on the type of socket. • For a TCP socket a connection must be established first. • For a UDP socket, the recommended way is to use sendto API, where the destination address is defined. However, it is possible to use send API instead of sendto API. For this, at least one successful call must be made to sendto API prior to the consecutive calls of send function. This ensures that the destination address is saved in the ATWINC15x0 firmware. The send function generates a SOCKET_MSG_SEND event callback after the data is transmitted to the remote host. For TCP sockets, this event guarantees that the data is delivered to the remote host TCP/IP stack (the remote application must use the recv function to read the data). For UDP sockets, it means that the data is transmitted, but there is no guarantee that the data is delivered to the remote host as per UDP protocol. The application is responsible to guarantee data delivery in the UDP sockets case. The SOCKET_MSG_SEND event callback returns the size of the data transmitted of the transmission in the success case and zero or negative value in case of an error. ATWINC15x0 Socket Programming © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 42 6.2.3.9 sendto The sendto function is used by the application to send UDP data to a remote host. It can only be used with UDP sockets. The IP address and port of the destination remote host is included as a parameter to the sendto function. The SOCKET_MSG_SENDTO event callback returns the size of the data transmitted in the success case and zero or negative value in case of an error. 6.2.3.10 recv/recvfrom The recv and recvfrom functions are used to read data from TCP and UDP sockets, respectively, and their operation is otherwise identical. The host MCU application calls the recv or recvfrom function with a pre allocated buffer. When the SOCKET_MSG_RECV or SOCKET_MSG_RECVFROM event callback arrives, this buffer must have the received data. The received data size indicates the status as follows: • Positive – data is received • Zero – socket connection is terminated • Negative – indicates an error In the case of TCP sockets, it is recommended to call the recv function after each successful socket connection (client or server). Otherwise, the received data is buffered in the ATWINC15x0 firmware wasting the system's resources until the socket is explicitly closed using a close function call. 6.2.3.11 close The close function is used to release the resources allocated to the socket and, for a TCP stream socket, also terminate an open connection. Each call to the socket function must match with a call to the close function. In addition, sockets that are accepted on a server socket port must be closed using this function. 6.2.3.12 setsockopt The setsockopt function may be used to set socket options to control the socket behavior. The options supported are as follows: • SO_SET_UDP_SEND_CALLBACK – enables or disables the send /sendto event callbacks. The user may want to disable the sendto event callback for UDP sockets to enhance the socket connection throughput. • IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP – enables subscribe to an IP Multicast address. • IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP – enables unsubscribe to an IP Multicast address. • SOL_SSL_SOCKET – sets SSL Socket. The following are the options supported for SSL socket: – SO_SSL_BYPASS_X509_VERIF command allows opening of the SSL socket to bypass the X509 certification verification process. Example: struct sockaddr_in addr_in; int optVal =1; addr_in.sin_family = AF_INET; addr_in.sin_port = _htons(MAIN_HOST_PORT); addr_in.sin_addr.s_addr = gu32HostIp; /* Create secure socket */ if (tcp_client_socket < 0) { tcp_client_socket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, ATWINC15x0 Socket Programming © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 43 SOCKET_FLAGS_SSL); } /* Check if socket was created successfully */ if (tcp_client_socket == -1) { printf("socket error.\r\n"); close(tcp_client_socket); return -1; } /* Enable X509 bypass verification */ setsockopt(tcp_client_socket, SOL_SSL_SOCKET,SO_SSL_BYPASS_X509_VERIF,&optVal,sizeof(optVal)); /* If success, connect to socket */ if (connect(tcp_client_socket, (struct sockaddr *)&addr_in, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) != SOCK_ERR_NO_ERROR) { printf("connect error.\r\n"); return SOCK_ERR_INVALID; } – SO_SSL_SNI command sets the Server Name Indicator (SNI). During TLS handshake process, client can indicate which hostname it is trying to connect by setting Server Name in (extended) client hello. SNI allows a server to present multiple certificates on the same IP address and TCP port number and hence allows multiple secure websites to be served by the same IP address without requiring all of the websites to use the same certificate. – SO_SSL_ENABLE_SNI_VALIDATION enables SNI validation functionality in case SNI is set. The server name validation is disabled by default. To enable server name validation, both SO_SSL_SNI and SO_SSL_ENABLE_SNI_VALIDATION must be set by the application through setsockopt() as shown in the example code snippet. When the SNI validation is enabled, the SNI is compared with the common name (CN) in the received server certificate. If the supplied SNI does not match the CN, the SSL connection will be forcibly closed by the ATWINC15x0 firmware. Example: #define MAIN_HOST_NAME "www.google.com" struct sockaddr_in addr_in; int optVal =1; addr_in.sin_family = AF_INET; addr_in.sin_port = _htons(MAIN_HOST_PORT); addr_in.sin_addr.s_addr = gu32HostIp; /* Create secure socket */ if (tcp_client_socket < 0) { tcp_client_socket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOCKET_FLAGS_SSL); } /* Check if socket was created successfully */ if (tcp_client_socket == -1) { printf("socket error.\r\n"); close(tcp_client_socket); return -1; } /* set SNI on SSL Socket */ setsockopt(tcp_client_socket, SOL_SSL_SOCKET,SO_SSL_SNI, MAIN_HOST_NAME,sizeof(MAIN_HOST_NAME)); /* Enable SSL SNI validation */ setsockopt(tcp_client_socket, SOL_SSL_SOCKET, SO_SSL_ENABLE_SNI_VALIDATION,&optVal,sizeof(optVal)); /* If success, connect to socket */ if (connect(tcp_client_socket, (struct sockaddr *)&addr_in, sizeof( ATWINC15x0 Socket Programming © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 44 struct sockaddr_in)) != SOCK_ERR_NO_ERROR) { printf("connect error.\r\n"); return SOCK_ERR_INVALID; } – SO_SSL_ENABLE_SESSION_CACHING command allows the TLS to cache the session information to speed up the future TLS session establishment. Example: struct sockaddr_in addr_in; int optVal =1; addr_in.sin_family = AF_INET; addr_in.sin_port = _htons(MAIN_HOST_PORT); addr_in.sin_addr.s_addr = gu32HostIp; /* Create secure socket */ if (tcp_client_socket < 0) { tcp_client_socket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOCKET_FLAGS_SSL); } /* Check if socket was created successfully */ if (tcp_client_socket == -1) { printf("socket error.\r\n"); close(tcp_client_socket); return -1; } /* Enable SSL Session cache */ setsockopt(tcp_client_socket, SOL_SSL_SOCKET,SO_SSL_ENABLE_SESSION_CACHING,&optVal,sizeof(optVal)); /* If success, connect to socket */ if (connect(tcp_client_socket, (struct sockaddr *)&addr_in, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) != SOCK_ERR_NO_ERROR) { printf("connect error.\r\n"); return SOCK_ERR_INVALID; } WARNING SO_SSL_BYPASS_X509_VERIF is only provided for debugging and testing purposes. It is NOT recommended to use this socket option in production software applications. 6.2.3.13 gethostbyname The gethostbyname function is used to resolve a host name (for example, URL) to a host IP address via the Domain Name System (DNS). This is limited only to IPv4 addresses. The operation depends on the configuration of a DNS server IP address and access to the DNS hierarchy through the internet. After gethostbyname is called, a callback to the DNS resolver handler is made. If the IP address is determined, a positive value is returned. If it cannot be determined or if the DNS server is not accessible (30-second time-out), an IP address value of zero is indicated. Note:  An IP returns a zero value to indicate an error (for example, the internet connection is down or DNS is unavailable) and the host MCU application may try the function call gethostbyname again later. 6.2.4 Summary The following table summarizes the ATWINC15x0 socket API and shows its compatibility with BSD socket APIs.

The function must be of type tpfAppSocketCb and must handle socket event notifications appropriately. 6.3.3 UDP Client Operation The following figure shows the flow for transferring data with a UDP client. Figure 6-6. UDP Client Sequence Diagram ATWINC15x0 Socket Programming © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 49 Note:  1. The first send message must be performed with the sendto API with the destination address specified. 2. If further messages are sent to the same address, the send API can also be used. For more details, refer to send. 3. recv can be used instead of recvfrom. 6.3.4 UDP Server Operation The following figure shows the flow for transferring data after establishing a UDP server. Figure 6-7. UDP Server Sequence Diagram 6.3.5 DNS Host Name Resolution The following figure shows the flow of DNS host name resolution. Figure 6-8. DNS Resolution Sequence ATWINC15x0 Socket Programming © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 50 Note:  1. The host application requests to resolve hostname (for example, http://www.foobar.com), by calling the function gethostbyname. 2. Before calling the gethostbyname, the application must register a DNS response callback function using the function registerSocketCallback. 3. After the ATWINC15x0 DNS_Resolver module obtains the IP Address (hostIP) corresponding to the given HostName, the dnsResolveCB is called with the hostIP. 4. If an error occurs or if the DNS request encounters a time-out, the dnsResolveCB is called with IP Address value zero indicating a failure to resolve the domain name. 6.4 Example Code This section provides code examples for different socket applications.

User Guide DS00002389B-page 55 7. Transport Layer Security (TLS) Transport Layer Security (TLS) layer sits on top of TCP and provides security services including privacy, authenticity, and message integrity. Various security methods are available with TLS in the WINC firmware. 7.1 TLS Overview The ATWINC15x0 features an embedded low-memory footprint TLS protocol stack bundled within the WINC firmware. It features the following functionality: • Supports TLS versions TLS1.0, TLS1.1 and TLS1.2. • Supports TLS client operation with TLS client authentication. • Supports TLS Server mode. • A simple application interface to the TLS stack. The TLS functionality is abstracted by the ATWINC15x0 socket interface, hiding the implementation complexity from the application developer and minimizing the effort to port existing plain TCP code to TLS. 7.2 TLS Connection Establishment From the application’s point of view, the TLS functionality is wrapped behind the socket APIs. This hides the complexity of TLS from the application which can use the TLS in the same way as the TCP (non-TLS) client and server. The main difference between the TLS sockets and the regular TCP sockets is that the application sets the SOCKET_FLAGS_SSL while creating the TLS client and server listening sockets. The detailed sequence of TLS connection establishment is described in the following figure. Note:  • For proper TLS Client operation, ensure that both SOCKET_FLAGS_SSL flag and the correct port number is set in the TLS client application. For instance, an HTTP client application uses no flag when calling socket API function and connect to port 80. The same application source code becomes an HTTPS client application if you use the flag SOCKET_FLAGS_SSL and change the port number in connect API to port 433. • For proper TLS server operation, ensure that both SOCKET_FLAGS_SSL flag and the correct port number is set in the TLS server application. For instance, an HTTP server application uses no flag when calling socket API function and bind to port 80. The same application source code becomes an HTTPS server application, if you use the flag SOCKET_FLAGS_SSL and change the port number in bind API to port 443.

User Guide DS00002389B-page 56 Figure 7-1. TLS Client Application Connection Establishment ATWINC15x0 Transport Layer Security (TLS) © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 57 Figure 7-2. TLS Server Application Connection Establishment 7.3 Server Certificate Installation 7.3.1 Technical Background 7.3.1.1 Public Key Infrastructure The TLS security is based on the Public Key Infrastructure PKI, in which: • A server has its public key stored in a digital certificate with X.509 standard format. • The server must have its X.509 certificate issued by Certificate Authority (CA) which in turn may be certified by another CA. ATWINC15x0 Transport Layer Security (TLS) © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 58 • This structure forms a chain of X.509 certificates known as chain of trust. • The top most CA of the Chain is known to be the Trusted Root Certificate Authority of the chain. 7.3.1.2 TLS Server Authentication • When a TLS client initiates a connection with a server, the server sends its X.509 certificate chain (may or may not include the root certificate) to the client. • The client must authenticate the Server (verify the Server identity) before starting data exchange. • The client must verify the entire certificate chain and also verify that the root certificate authority of the chain is in the client’s trusted root certificate store. 7.3.2 Adding a Certificate to the WINC Trusted Root Certificate Store • Before connecting to a TLS Server, the root certificate of the server must be installed on the ATWINC15x0. If this is not done, the TLS connection to the server is locally aborted by the WINC. • The root certificate must be in DER format. If it is not provided in DER format, it must be converted before installation. Refer to Section 17 “How to Generate Certificates” for certificate formats and conversion methods. • To install the certificate, execute root_certificate_downloader.exe with the following syntax: root_certificate_downloader.exe -n N File1.cer File2.cer .... FileN.cer 7.4 WINC TLS Limitations 7.4.1 Concurrent Connections Only 2 TLS concurrent connections are allowed. 7.4.2 TLS Supported Ciphers The ATWINC15x0 supports the following cipher suites (for both client and server modes). • TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA • TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 • TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA • TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 The ATWINC15x0 also optionally support the following ECC cipher suites. • TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA • TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 • TLS_ECDHE_ ECDSA _WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 7.4.3 Supported Hash Algorithms The current implementation (WINC firmware version 19.5.2 onwards) supports the following hash algorithms: • MD5 • SHA-1 • SHA256 • SHA384 • SHA512 • RSA 4096 ATWINC15x0 Transport Layer Security (TLS) © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 59 7.4.4 TLS Certificate Constraints For TLS server and TLS client authentication, the ATWINC15x0 can accept the following certificate types: • RSA certificates with key size no more than 2048 bits • ECDSA certificates only for NIST P256 EC Curve (secp256r1); conditionally supported 7.4.5 ECC Cipher Suite The ATWINC15x0 TLS library features support of ECC cipher suites. Although, the ATWINC15x0 device does not contain a built-in hardware accelerator for ECC math, the WINC TLS library leverages the ECC math from the host MCU. To perform the ECC computations needed by the ECC ciphers, an ECC hardware accelerator (or software library) on the host MCU is mandatory. The WINC TLS initializes with the ECC cipher suites disabled by default. The host MCU application can enable the ciphers via the API sslSetActiveCipherSuites. 7.5 SSL Client Code Example SOCKET sslSocketHdl; uint8 rxBuffer[256]; /* Socket event handler. */ void SSL_SocketEventHandler(SOCKET sock, uint8 u8Msg, void * pvMsg) { if(sock == sslSocketHdl) { if(u8Msg == SOCKET_MSG_CONNECT) { // Connect event tstrSocketConnectMsg *pstrConnect = (tstrSocketConnectMsg*)pvMsg; if(pstrConnect->s8Error == 0) { // Perform data exchange. uint8 acSendBuffer[256]; uint16 u16MsgSize; // Fill in the acSendBuffer with some data here // Send some data. send(sock, acSendBuffer, u16MsgSize, 0); // Recv response from server. recv(sslSocketHdl, rxBuffer, sizeof(rxBuffer), 0); } else { printf("SSL Connection Failed\n"); } } else if(u8Msg == SOCKET_MSG_RECV) { tstrSocketRecvMsg *pstrRecvMsg = (tstrSocketRecvMsg*)pvMsg; if((pstrRecvMsg->pu8Buffer != NULL) && (pstrRecvMsg->s16BufferSize > 0)) { // Process the received message here // Close the socket if finished. close(sslSocketHdl); } } } } /* This is the DNS callback.

User Guide DS00002389B-page 61 8. Wi-Fi AP Mode 8.1 Overview This chapter provides an overview of the WINC Access Point (AP) mode and describes how to setup this mode and configure its parameters. In ATWINC1500 v19.6.1 firmware and above, the DHCP default gateway, DNS server and subnet mask can be customized when entering AP and provisioning modes. Earlier, the default gateway and DNS server is the same as the host IP of the WINC and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. Configuring these values allow the use of 0.0.0.0 for the default gateway and DNS server, allowing mobile devices to connect to the WINC AP without disconnecting from the mobile network. Using IPs other than 0.0.0.0 is possible but it is of no use since only one device can connect to the WINC AP at any time. 8.2 Setting the WINC AP Mode Set the WINC AP mode configuration parameters using the tstrM2MAPConfig structure. There are two functions to enable/disable the WINC AP mode: • sint8 m2m_wifi_enable_ap (CONST tstrM2MAPConfig* pstrM2MAPConfig) • sint8 m2m_wifi_disable_ap (void) For more details on API, refer to the Atmel Software Framework for ATWINC1500 (Wi-Fi). In ATWINC1500 v19.6.1 firmware and above, to maintain backwards compatibility with older drivers, new structures and APIs were introduced. To customize these fields when entering AP or provisioning mode the tstrM2MAPModeConfig structure must be populated and passed to the new m2m_wifi_enable_ap_ext() or m2m_wifi_start_provision_mode_ext() APIs. The tstrM2MAPModeConfig structure contains the original tstrM2MAPConfig structure for storing the AP SSID, password, and so on. and another tstrM2MAPConfigExt structure for configuring the default router, DNS server and subnet mask. 8.3 Limitations • The AP can only support a single associated station. Further connection attempts are rejected. • The ATWINC15x0 supports WPA2 security feature starting from the firmware version 19.5.x. • Concurrency (simultaneous STA and AP mode) is not supported. Prior to activating the AP mode, the host MCU application must disable the mode that is currently running. 8.4 Sequence Diagram Once AP mode is established, data interface does not exist before a station associates to the AP; therefore, the application needs to wait until it receives a notification via an event callback. This process is shown in the following figure. ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi AP Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 62 Figure 8-1. ATWINC15x0 AP Mode Establishment 8.5 AP Mode Code Example The following example shows how to configure the ATWINC15x0 AP mode with WINC_SSID as broadcasted SSID on channel one with open security and an IP address equals 192.168.1.1. #include "m2m_wifi.h" #include "m2m_types.h" void wifi_event_cb(uint8 u8WiFiEvent, void * pvMsg) { switch(u8WiFiEvent) { case M2M_WIFI_REQ_DHCP_CONF: { uint8 *pu8IPAddress = (uint8*)pvMsg; printf("Associated STA has IP Address \"%u.%u.%u.%u\"\n", pu8IPAddress[0], pu8IPAddress[1], pu8IPAddress[2], pu8IPAddress[3]); } break; default: break; } } int main() { tstrWifiInitParam param; /* Platform specific initializations. */ ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi AP Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.

ATWINC15x0 Wi-Fi AP Mode © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 64 9. Provisioning For normal operation the ATWINC15x0 device requires certain parameters to be loaded. In particular, when operating in Station mode, it must know the identity (SSID) and credentials of the access point to which it needs to connect. The entry of this information is facilitated through the following provisioning steps. The current ATWINC15x0 software supports the following methods of provisioning: • HTTP-based (browser) provisioning, while the WINC is in AP mode • Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) 9.1 HTTP Provisioning In this method, the ATWINC15x0 is placed in AP mode and another device with a browser capability (mobile phone, tablet, PC, and so on) is instructed to connect to the ATWINC15x0 HTTP server. Once connected, the desired configuration can be entered. The HTTP Provisioning home page is as shown in the following figure. Figure 9-1. ATWINC15x0 HTTP Provisioning Page ATWINC15x0 Provisioning © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 65 9.1.1 Provisioning Control Flow Figure 9-2. HTTP Provisioning Sequence Diagram The preceding figure shows the provisioning operation for a WINC device. The detailed steps are described as follows: 1. The WINC device starts the HTTP Provisioning mode. 2. A user with a smartphone finds the WINC AP SSID in the Wi-Fi search list. 3. The user connects to the WINC AP. 4. The user launches the web browser and writes the WINC home page in the address bar. 5. If the HTTP redirect bit (bEnableHttpRedirect) is set in m2m_wifi_start_provision_mode API, then all http traffic (http://URL) from the associated device (Phone, PC, and so on) are redirected to the WINC HTTP Provisioning home page. Some phones display a notification message “sign in to Wi-Fi networks?” which, when accepted, automatically loads the WINC home page. The WINC home page, as shown in Figure 10.1, appears on the browser. 6. To discover the list of Wi-Fi APs in the area, the user can press “Refresh”. 7. The desired AP is then selected from the search list (by one click or one touch) and its name automatically appears in the “Network Name” text box. ATWINC15x0 Provisioning © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 66 8. The user must then enter the correct AP passphrase (for WPA/WPA2 personal security) in the “Pass Phrase” text box. If the desired AP uses open security, (M2M_WIFI_SEC_OPEN) then the Pass Phrase field is left empty. 9. A WINC device name may be optionally configured, if desired, by the user in the “Device Name” text box. 10. Then user should press Connect. The WINC turns off AP mode and start connecting to the provisioned AP. 9.1.2 HTTP Redirect Feature The ATWINC15x0 HTTP Provisioning server supports the HTTP redirect feature, which forces all HTTP traffic originating from the associated user device to be redirected to the ATWINC15x0 Provisioning home page. This simplifies the mechanism of loading the provisioning page instead of typing the exact web address of the HTTP Provisioning server. To enable this feature, set the redirect flag when calling the API m2m_wifi_start_provision_mode. For further details, refer to the following code example. 9.1.3 Provisioning Code Example void wifi_event_cb(uint8 u8WiFiEvent, void * pvMsg) { if(u8WiFiEvent == M2M_WIFI_RESP_PROVISION_INFO) { tstrM2MProvisionInfo *provInfo = (tstrM2MProvisionInfo*)pvMsg; if(provInfo->u8Status == M2M_SUCCESS) { // connect to the provisioned AP. m2m_wifi_connect((char*)provInfo->au8SSID, strlen(provInfo ->au8SSID), provInfo->u8SecType, provInfo->au8Password, M2M_WIFI_CH_ALL); printf("PROV SSID : %s\n", provInfo->au8SSID); printf("PROV PSK : %s\n", provInfo->au8Password); } else { printf("(ERR) Provisioning Failed\n"); } } } int main() { tstrWifiInitParam param; // Platform specific initializations. // Driver initialization. param.pfAppWifiCb = wifi_event_cb; if(!m2m_wifi_init(¶m)) { tstrM2MAPConfig apConfig; uint8 bEnableRedirect = 1; strcpy(apConfig.au8SSID, "WINC_AP"); apConfig.u8ListenChannel = 1; apConfig.u8SecType = M2M_WIFI_SEC_OPEN; apConfig.u8SsidHide = 0; // IP Address apConfig.au8DHCPServerIP[0] = 192; apConfig.au8DHCPServerIP[1] = 168; apConfig.au8DHCPServerIP[2] = 1; apConfig.au8DHCPServerIP[0] = 1; m2m_wifi_start_provision_mode(&apConfig, "atmelconfig.com", bEnableRedirect); ATWINC15x0 Provisioning © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 67 while(1) { m2m_wifi_handle_events(NULL); } } } 9.2 Limitations The current implementation of the HTTP Provisioning has the following limitations: • The ATWINC15x0 AP limitations are applicable to the Provisioning mode. For a list of AP mode limitations, refer to Limitations. • Provisioning uses AP mode with open security. No Wi-Fi security nor application level security (for example, TLS) is used; therefore, the AP credentials entered by the user are sent on the clear and can be seen by eavesdroppers. • The WINC Provisioning home page is a static HTML page. No server-side scripting allowed in the WINC HTTP server. • Only APs with WPA-personal security (passphrase based) and no security (Open network) can be provisioned. WEP and WPA-Enterprise APs cannot be provisioned. • The Provisioning is responsible to deliver the connection parameters to the application, the connection procedure and the connection parameters validity are the application's responsibility. 9.3 Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Most modern Access Points support Wi-Fi Protected Setup method, typically using the push button method. From the user’s perspective WPS is a simple mechanism to make a device connect securely to an AP without remembering passwords or passphrases. WPS uses asymmetric cryptography to form a temporary secure link which is then used to transfer a passphrase (and other information) from the AP to the new station. After the transfer, secure connections are made as for normal static PSK configuration. 9.3.1 WPS Configuration Methods There are two authentication methods that can be used with WPS: 1. PBC (push button) method – A physical button is pressed on the AP which puts the AP into WPS mode for a limited period of time. WPS is initiated on the ATWINC15x0 by calling m2m_wifi_wps with input parameter WPS_PBC_TRIGGER. 2. PIN method – The AP is always available for WPS initiation but requires proof that the user has knowledge of an 8-digit PIN, usually printed on the body of the AP. Since the WINC is often used in headless devices (no user interface), it is necessary to reverse this process and force the AP to use a PIN number provided with the WINC device. Some APs allow the PIN to be changed through configuration. WPS is initiated on the ATWINC15x0 by calling m2m_wifi_wps with input parameter WPS_PIN_TRIGGER. Given the difficulty of this approach, it is not recommend for most applications. The flow of messages and actions for WPS operation is shown in the following figure.

No host Flash memory resources are required to store the firmware. The ATWINC15x0 uses an internal HTTP client to retrieve the firmware from a remote server. 10.2 OTA Image Architecture The WINC serial Flash can store two copies of the firmware image: a working image and a rollback image. Upon first-time boot, the working image is the factory image and the rollback image will not be available in the WINC Flash. Instead ATE firmware will be available in rollback image firmware section. On performing the OTA firmware upgrade, the ATE firmware will be erased and the newly received firmware will be written into the Roll back image section. The WINC has insufficient internal memory to save the whole image in RAM during an OTA upgrade; therefore, each block of downloaded data is written to the Flash as it is received. In the event that the OTA fails, the existing (Working) image is retained and the rollback image is invalidated. If the transfer succeeds, the Flash control structure is updated to reflect a new working image and the existing image is marked as a valid rollback image.

Multicast Sockets 11.1 Overview The purpose of the multicast filters is to provide the ability to send/receive messages to/from multicast addresses. This feature is useful for one-to-many communication over networks, whether it’s intended to send Internet Protocol (IP) datagrams to a group of interested receivers in a single transmission, participate in a zero-configuration networking or listening to a multicast stream or any other application. 11.2 How to Use Filters Whenever the application wishes to use a multicast IP address, for either sending or receiving, a filter is needed. The application can establish this through setting the IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP option for the required socket accompanied by the multicast address that the application wants to use. If subsequently the host wants to stop receiving the multicast stream, set the IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP option for the required socket accompanied with the multicast address. Adding or removing a multicast address filter causes the WINC chip firmware to add/remove both MAC layer filter and IP layer filter in order to pass or prevent messages from reaching to the host. 11.3 Multicast Socket Code Example To illustrate the functionality, a simple example is implemented where the host application responds to mDNS (Multicast Domain Name System) queries sent from a computer/mobile application. The computer/ mobile is looking for devices which support the zero configuration service as indicated by an mDNS response. The WINC responds, notifying its presence and its capability of sending and receiving multicast messages. The example consists of a UDP server that binds on port 5353 (mDNS port) and waits for messages, parsing them and replying with a previously saved response message. • Server Initialization: void MDNS_ServerInit() { tstrSockAddr strAddr ; unsigned int MULTICAST_IP = 0xE00000FB; //224.0.0.251 socketInit(); dns_server_sock = socket( AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM,0); MDNS_INFO("DNS_server_init \n"); setsockopt(dns_server_sock,1,IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP,&MULTICAST_IP,sizeof(MULTICAST_IP)); strAddr.u16Port =HTONS(MDNS_SERVER_PORT); bind(dns_server_sock,(struct sockaddr*)&strAddr,sizeof(strAddr)); registerSocketCallback(UDP_SocketEventHandler,AppServerCb); } • Sockets Events Handler: void MDNS_RecvfromCB(signed char sock,unsigned char *pu8RxBuffer,signed short s16DataSize, unsigned char *pu8IPAddr,unsigned short u16Port,void *pvArg) { MDNS_INFO("DnsServer_RecvfromCB \n"); if((pu8RxBuffer != 0) && (s16DataSize > 0)) { tstrDnsHdr strDnsHdr; strdnsquery; MDNS_INFO("DNS Packet Recieved \n"); ATWINC15x0 Multicast Sockets © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.

WINC Serial Flash Memory 12.1 Overview and Features The WINC has internal serial (SPI) Flash memory of 4 Mb capacity in the ATWINC1500 and 8 Mb capacity in the ATWINC1510. The Flash memory is used to store: • User configuration • Firmware • Connection Profiles During start-up and mode changes, firmware is loaded from the serial Flash into program memory (IRAM) in which the firmware is executed. The Flash is accessed at other points during run time to retrieve configuration and profile data. A minimum of 4 Mb Flash is required for OTA feature in order to store both working and rollback images. The Flash memory can be read, written and erased directly from the host without co-operation with the WINC firmware. However, if operational firmware is already loaded, it is necessary to halt any running WINC firmware first before accessing the serial Flash to avoid access conflict between the host and the WINC processor. 12.2 Accessing to Serial Flash • The host has transparent access to the serial (SPI) Flash through the WINC SPI Master. • The host can program the serial (SPI) Flash without the need for operational firmware in the WINC. The function m2m_wifi_download_mode must be called first. Figure 12-1. System Block Diagram showing SPI Flash Connection 12.3 Read/Write/Erase Operations SPI Flash can be accessed to be read, written and erased. It is required to change the WINC’s mode to Download mode first before attempting to access the SPI Flash by calling: sint32 m2m_wifi_download_mode(); ATWINC15x0 WINC Serial Flash Memory © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 78 All SPI Flash functions are blocking. A return of M2M_SUCCESS indicates that the requested operation is successfully completed. The following is a list of Flash functions that may be used: • Query the size of the SPI Flash: uint32 spi_flash_get_size(); This function returns with the size of the SPI Flash in Mb. • Read data from the SPI Flash: sint8 spi_flash_read(uint8 *pu8Buf, uint32 u32offset, uint32 u32Sz) Where the size of data is limited by the SPI Flash size. • Erase sectors in the SPI Flash: sint8 spi_flash_erase(uint32 u32Offset, uint32 u32Sz) Note:  The size is limited by the SPI Flash size. Prior to writing to any sector, erase this sector first. If some data needs to be changed within a sector, it is advised to read the sector first, modify the data and then erase and write the whole sector again. • Write data to the SPI Flash: sint8 spi_flash_write(uint8* pu8Buf, uint32 u32Offset, uint32 u32Sz) If the application wants to write any number of bytes within any sector, it has to erase the entire sector first. It may be necessary to read the entire sector, erase the sector and then write back with modifications. It is also recommended to verify that data is written after it returns success by reading data again and compare it with the original. 12.3.1 Flash Read, Erase, and Write Code Examples #include "spi_flash.h" #define DATA_TO_REPLACE "THIS IS A NEW SECTOR IN FLASH" int main() { uint8 au8FlashContent[FLASH_SECTOR_SZ] = {0}; uint32u32FlashTotalSize = 0, u32FlashOffset = 0; // Platform specific initializations. ret = m2m_wifi_download_mode(); if(M2M_SUCCESS != ret) { printf("Unable to enter download mode\r\n"); } else { u32FlashTotalSize = spi_flash_get_size(); } while((u32FlashTotalSize > u32FlashOffset) && (M2M_SUCCESS == ret)) { ret = spi_flash_read(au8FlashContent, u32FlashOffset, FLASH_SECTOR_SZ); if(M2M_SUCCESS != ret) { printf("Unable to read SPI sector\r\n"); break; } memcpy(au8FlashContent, DATA_TO_REPLACE, strlen(DATA_TO_REPLACE)); ATWINC15x0 WINC Serial Flash Memory © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.

User Guide DS00002389B-page 80 13. Host Interface (HIF) Protocol Communication between the user application and the WINC device is facilitated by the driver software. This driver implements the Host Interface (HIF) Protocol and exposes an API to the application with various services. The services are broadly divided in two categories: Wi-Fi device control and IP Socket. The Wi-Fi device control services allow actions such as channel scanning, network identification, connection and disconnection. The Socket services allow data transfer once a connection is established and similar to BSD socket definitions. The host driver implements services asynchronously. This means that when the application calls an API to request a service action, the call is non-blocking and returns immediately, often before the action is completed. Where appropriate a notification that an action has completed is provided in a subsequent message from the WINC device to the host which is delivered to the application via a callback function. In general, the WINC firmware uses asynchronous events to signal the host driver of certain status changes. Asynchronous operation is essential where functions (such as Wi-Fi connection) may take significant time. When an API is called, a sequence of layers is activated to format the request and arranging to transfer it to the WINC device through the serial protocol. Note:  Dealing with HIF messages in the host MCU application is an advanced topic. For most applications, it is recommended to use Wi-Fi and socket layers. Both layers hide the complexity of the HIF APIs. After the application sends request, the Host Driver (Wi-Fi/Socket layer) formats the request and sends it to the HIF layer which then interrupts the WINC device to notify that a new request is posted. Upon receipt, the WINC firmware parses the request and starts the required operation. Figure 13-1. WINC Driver Layers The Host Interface Layer is responsible for handling communication between the host MCU and the WINC device. This includes interrupt handling, DMA control and management of the communication logic between the firmware driver in the host and the WINC firmware. The Request/Response sequence between the host and the WINC chip is shown in the following figure. ATWINC15x0 Host Interface (HIF) Protocol © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.

Step (7) Allow the WINC device to Sleep Allow the WINC device to enter Sleep mode again (if it wishes). 13.2 HIF Message Header Structure The HIF message is the data structure exchanged back and forth between the Host Interface and the WINC firmware. The HIF message header structure consists of three fields: • The Group ID (8-bit) – a group ID is the category of the message. Valid categories are enumerated in tenuM2mReqGroup. • Op Code (8-bit) – is a command number. Valid command number is a value enumerated in: tenuM2mConfigCmd and tenuM2mStaCmd, tenuM2mApCmd, and tenuM2mP2pCmd corresponding to configuration, STA mode, AP mode, and P2P mode commands. Note:  • Refer to the m2m_types.h for the full list of commands. • The P2P mode is not supported after release v19.5.3. • Payload Length (16-bit) – the payload length is shown in bytes (does not include header). 13.3 HIF Layer APIs The interface between the application and the driver is done at the higher layer API interface (Wi-Fi / Socket.) As explained previously, the driver upper layer uses a lower layer API to access the services of the Host Interface Protocol. This section describes the Host Interface APIs that the upper layers use: The following API functions are described: ATWINC15x0 Host Interface (HIF) Protocol © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc. User Guide DS00002389B-page 84 • hif_chip_wake • hif_chip_sleep • hif_register_cb • hif_isr • hif_receive • hif_send • hif_set_sleep_mode • hif_get_sleep_mode For all functions, the return value is either M2M_SUCCESS (zero) in case of success or a negative value in case of failure. • sint8 hif_chip_wake (void) – this function wakes the WINC chip from Sleep mode using clockless register access. It sets bit '1' of register 0x01 and sets the value of WAKE_REG register to WAKE_VALUE. • sint8 hif_chip_sleep (void) – this function enables Sleep mode for the WINC chip by setting the WAKE_REG register to a value of SLEEP_VALUE and clearing bit '1' of register 0x01. • sint8 hif_register_cb (uint8 u8Grp, tpfHifCallBack fn) – this function sets the callback function for different components (for example, M2M_WIFI, M2M_HIF, M2M_OTA and so on.). A callback is registered by upper layers to receive specific events of a specific message group. • sint8 hif_isr (void) – this is the host interface interrupt service routine. It handles interrupts generated by the WINC chip and parses the HIF header to call back the appropriate handler. • sint8 hif_receive (uint32 u32Addr, uint8 *pu8Buf, uint16 u16Sz, uint8 is Done) – this function causes the host driver to read data from the WINC chip. The location and length of the data must be known in advance and specified. This is typically extracted from an earlier part of a transaction. • sint8 hif_send (uint8 u8Gid, uint8 u8Opcode, uint8 *pu8CtrlBuf, uint16 u16CtrlBufSize, uint8 *pu8DataBuf, uint16 u16DataSize, uint16 16DataOffset) – this function causes the host driver to send data to the WINC chip. The WINC chip must be prepared for reception according to the flow described in the previous section. • void hif_set_sleep_mode (uint8 u8Pstype) – this function is used to set the Sleep mode of the HIF layer. • uint8 hif_get_sleep_mode (void) – this function return the Sleep mode of the HIF layer. 13.4 Scan Code Example The following code example illustrates the Request/Response flow on a Wi-Fi Scan request. Note:  For more details on example codes, refer to the Wi-Fi Network Controller Software Programming Guide. • The application requests a Wi-Fi scan. { m2m_wifi_request_scan(M2M_WIFI_CH_ALL); } • The host driver Wi-Fi layer formats the request and forward it to HIF (Host Interface) layer. sint8 m2m_wifi_request_scan(uint8 ch) { tstrM2MScan strtmp; sint8 s8Ret = M2M_ERR_SCAN_IN_PROGRESS; ATWINC15x0 Host Interface (HIF) Protocol © 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
