Each of these lines (shown in Table 4.1 (p. 12) ) are connected to one or more interrupt flags in one or more modules. The interrupt flags are set by hardware on an interrupt condition. It is also possible to set/clear the interrupt flags through the IFS/IFC registers. Each interrupt flag is then qualified with its own interrupt enable bit (IEN register), before being OR'ed with the other interrupt flags to generate the IRQ. A high IRQ line will set the corresponding pending bit (can also be set/cleared with the SETPEND/ CLRPEND bits in ISPR0/ICPR0) in the Cortex-M3 NVIC. The pending bit is then qualified with an enable bit (set/cleared with SETENA/CLRENA bits in ISER0/ICER0) before generating an interrupt request to the core. Figure 4.1 (p. 12) illustrates the interrupt system. For more information on how the interrupts are handled inside the Cortex-M3, the reader is referred to the EFM32G Cortex-M3 Reference Manual.

RAM retention reduces the need for storing data in flash and enables frequent use of the ultra low energy modes EM2 and EM3 with as little as 0.6 A current consumption. Fla s h ARM Co rte x-M3 RAM How? EBI Low energy and non-volatile flash memory stores program and application data in all energy modes and can easily be reprogrammed in system. Low leakage RAM, with data retention in EM0 to EM3, removes the data restore time penalty, and the DMA ensures fast autonomous transfers with predictable response time. DMA Co n tro lle r P e rip h e ra ls 5.1 Introduction The EFM32G contains an AMBA AHB Bus system allowing bus masters to access the memory mapped address space. A multilayer AHB bus matrix, using a Round-robin arbitration scheme, connects the master bus interfaces to the AHB slaves (Figure 5.1 (p. 15) ). The bus matrix allows several AHB slaves to be accessed simultaneously. An AMBA APB interface is used for the peripherals, which are accessed through an AHB-to-APB bridge connected to the AHB bus matrix. The AHB bus masters are: * Cortex-M3 ICode: Used for instruction fetches from Code memory (0x00000000 - 0x1FFFFFFF). * Cortex-M3 DCode: Used for debug and data access to Code memory (0x00000000 - 0x1FFFFFFF). * Cortex-M3 System: Used for instruction fetches, data and debug access to system space (0x20000000 - 0xDFFFFFFF). * DMA: Can access EBI, SRAM, Flash and peripherals (0x00000000 - 0xDFFFFFFF). 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 14 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 5.1.

System Address Space The embedded SRAM is located at address 0x20000000 in the memory map of the EFM32G. When running code located in SRAM starting at this address, the Cortex-M3 uses the System bus to fetch instructions. This results in reduced performance as the Cortex-M3 accesses stack, other data in SRAM and peripherals using the System bus. To be able to run code from SRAM efficiently, the SRAM is also mapped in the code space at address 0x10000000. When running code from this space, the Cortex-M3 fetches instructions through the I/D-Code bus interface, leaving the System bus for data access. The SRAM mapped into the code space can however only be accessed by the CPU, i.e. not the DMA. 5.2.1 Bit-banding The SRAM bit-band alias and peripheral bit-band alias regions are located at 0x22000000 and 0x42000000 respectively. Read and write operations to these regions are converted into masked singlebit reads and atomic single-bit writes to the embedded SRAM and peripherals of the EFM32G. The standard approach to modify a single register or SRAM bit in the aliased regions, requires software to read the value of the byte, half-word or word containing the bit, modify the bit, and then write the byte, half-word or word back to the register or SRAM address. Using bit-banding, this read-modify-write can be done in a single atomic operation. As read-writeback, bit-masking and bit-shift operations are not necessary in software, code size is reduced and execution speed improved. The bit-band regions allows addressing each individual bit in the SRAM and peripheral areas of the memory map. To set or clear a bit in the embedded SRAM, write a 1 or a 0 to the following address: Memory SRAM Area Set/Clear Bit bit_address = 0x22000000 + (address - 0x20000000) x 32 + bit x 4, 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 16 (5.1) www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers where address is the address of the 32-bit word containing the bit to modify, and bit is the index of the bit in the 32-bit word. To modify a bit in the Peripheral area, use the following address: Memory Peripheral Area Bit Modification bit_address = 0x42000000 + (address - 0x40000000) x 32 + bit x 4, (5.2) where address and bit are defined as above.

Round-robin does not assign a fixed priority to each bus master. The arbiter does not insert any bus wait-states. 5.2.3.2 Access Performance The Bus Matrix is a multi-layer energy optimized AMBA AHB compliant bus with an internal bandwidth equal to 4 times a single AHB-bus. The Bus Matrix accepts new transfers initiated by each master in every clock cycle without inserting any wait-states. The slaves, however, may insert wait-states depending on their internal throughput and the clock frequency. The Cortex-M3, the DMA Controller, and the peripherals run on clocks that can be prescaled separately. When accessing a peripheral which runs on a frequency equal to or faster than the HFCORECLK, the number of wait cycles per access, in addition to master arbitration, is given by: 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 18 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Memory Wait Cycles with Clock Equal or Faster than HFCORECLK Ncycles = 2 + Nslave cycles, (5.3) where Nslave cycles is the wait cycles introduced by the slave. When accessing a peripheral running on a clock slower than the HFCORECLK, wait-cycles are introduced to allow the transfer to complete on the peripheral clock. The number of wait cycles per access, in addition to master arbitration, is given by: Memory Wait Cycles with Clock Slower than CPU Ncycles = (2 + Nslave cycles) x fHFCORECLK/fHFPERCLK, (5.4) where Nslave cycles is the number of wait cycles introduced by the slave. For general register access, Nslave cycles = 1. More details on clocks and prescaling can be found in Chapter 11 (p. 94) . 5.3 Access to Low Energy Peripherals (Asynchronous Registers) 5.3.1 Introduction The Low Energy Peripherals are capable of running when the high frequency oscillator and core system is powered off, i.e. in energy mode EM2 and in some cases also EM3. This enables the peripherals to perform tasks while the system energy consumption is minimal. The Low Energy Peripherals are: * * * * * * Liquid Crystal Display driver - LCD Low Energy Timer - LETIMER Low Energy UART - LEUART Pulse Counter - PCNT Real Time Counter - RTC Watchdog - WDOG All Low Energy Peripherals are memory mapped, with automatic data synchronization. Because the Low Energy Peripherals are running on clocks asynchronous to the core clock, there are some constraints on how register accesses can be done, as described in the following sections. 5.3.1.1 Writing Every Low Energy Peripheral has one or more registers with data that needs to be synchronized into the Low Energy clock domain to maintain data consistency and predictable operation. Due to synchronization, the write operation requires 3 positive edges of the clock of the Low Energy Peripheral being accessed. Such registers are marked "Asynchronous" in their description header. See Figure 5.3 (p. 20) for a more detailed overview of the writing operation. After writing data to a register which value is to be synchronized into the Low Energy clock domain, a corresponding busy flag in the _SYNCBUSY register (e.g. RTC_SYNCBUSY) is set. This flag is set as long as synchronization is in progress and is cleared upon completion. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 19 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Note Subsequent writes to the same register before the corresponding busy flag is cleared is not supported. Write before the busy flag is cleared may result in undefined behavior. In general, the SYNCBUSY register only needs to be observed if there is a risk of multiple write access to a register (which must be prevented). It is not required to wait until the relevant flag in the SYNCBUSY register is cleared after writing a register. E.g EM2 can be entered immediately after writing a register. Figure 5.3.

Registers updated/maintained by the Low Energy Peripheral are read directly from the Low Energy clock domain. Registers residing in the core clock domain, are read from the core clock domain. See Figure 5.4 (p. 21) for a more detailed overview of the read operation. Note Writing a register and then immediately reading back the value of the register may give the impression that the write operation is complete. This is not necessarily the case. Please refer to the SYNCBUSY register for correct status of the write operation to the Low Energy Peripheral. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 20 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 5.4.

If precise control of the synchronization process is required, this bit may be utilized. When REGFREEZE is set, the synchronization process is halted, allowing the software to write multiple Low Energy registers before starting the synchronization process, thus providing precise control of the module update process. The synchronization process is started by clearing the REGFREEZE bit. 5.4 Flash The Flash retains data in any state and typically stores the application code, special user data and security information. The Flash memory is typically programmed through the debug interface, but can also be erased and written to from software. * * * * * * Up to 128 kB of memory Page size of 512 bytes (minimum erase unit) Minimum 20 000 erase cycles More than 10 years data retention at 85C Lock-bits for memory protection Data retention in any state 5.5 SRAM The primary task of the SRAM memory is to store application data. Additionally, it is possible to execute instructions from SRAM, and the DMA may used to transfer data between the SRAM, Flash and peripherals. * Up to 16 kB memory * Bit-band access support * 4 kB blocks may be individually powered down when not in use 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 21 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Data retention of the entire memory in EM0 to EM3 5.6 Device Information (DI) Page The DI page contains calibration values, a unique identification number and other useful data.

Why? The Debug Interface makes it easy to reprogram and update the system in the field, and allows debugging with minimal I/O pin usage. ARM Co rte x-M3 How? DBG De b u g Da ta The Cortex-M3 supports advanced debugging features. EFM32G devices only use two port pins for debugging or programming. The internal and external state of the system can be examined with debug extensions supporting instruction or data access break- and watch points. 6.1 Introduction The EFM32G devices include hardware debug support through a 2-pin serial-wire debug (SWD) interface. In addition, there is also a Serial Wire Viewer pin which can be used to output profiling information, data trace and software-generated messages. For more technical information about the debug interface the reader is referred to: * ARM Cortex-M3 Technical Reference Manual * ARM CoreSight Components Technical Reference Manual * ARM Debug Interface v5 Architecture Specification 6.2 Features * Flash Patch and Breakpoint (FPB) unit * Implement breakpoints and code patches * Data Watch point and Trace (DWT) unit * Implement watch points, trigger resources and system profiling * Instrumentation Trace Macrocell (ITM) * Application-driven trace source that supports printf style debugging 6.3 Functional Description There are three debug pins and four trace pins available on the device. Operation of these pins are described in the following section. 6.3.1 Debug Pins The following pins are the debug connections for the device: 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 24 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Serial Wire Clock input (SWCLK): This pin is enabled after reset and has a built-in pull down. * Serial Wire Data Input/Output (SWDIO): This pin is enabled after reset and has a built-in pull-up. * Serial Wire Viewer (SWV): This pin is disabled after reset. The debug pins can be enabled and disabled through GPIO_ROUTE, see Section 28.3.2.1 (p. 405) . Please remeberer that upon disabling, debug contact with the device is lost. Also note that, because the debug pins have pull-down and pull-up enabled by default, leaving them enabled might increase the current consumption with up to 200 A if left connected to supply or ground. 6.3.2 Debug and EM2/EM3 Leaving the debugger connected when issuing a WFI or WFE to enter EM2 or EM3 will make the system enter a special EM2. This mode differs from regular EM2 and EM3 in that the high frequency clocks are still enabled, and certain core functionality is still powered in order to maintain debug-functionality. Because of this, the current consumption in this mode is closer to EM1 and it is therefore important to disconnect the debugger before doing current consumption measurements. 6.4 Debug Lock and Device Erase The debug access to the Cortex-M3 is locked by clearing the Debug Lock Word (DLW) and resetting the device, see Section 7.3.2 (p. 31) . When debug access is locked, the debug interface remains accessible but the connection to the CortexM3 core and the whole bus-system is blocked as shown in Figure 6.2 (p. 26) . This mechanism is controlled by the Authentication Access Port (AAP) as illustrated by Figure 6.1 (p. 25) . The AAP is only accessible from a debugger and not from the core. Figure 6.1. AAP - Authentication Access Port DEVICEERAS E ERAS EBUS Y DLW[3:0] == 0xF S e ria lWire de bug inte rfa ce S W-DP Authe ntica tion Acce s s P ort (AAP ) Co rte x AHB-AP The debugger can access the AAP-registers, and only these registers just after reset, for the time of the AAP-window outlined in Figure 6.2 (p. 26) . If the device is locked, access to the core and bus-system is blocked even after code execution starts, and the debugger can only access the AAP-registers. If the device is not locked, the AAP is no longer accessible after code execution starts, and the debugger can access the core and bus-system normally. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 25 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 6.2. Device Unlock Re s e t P rogra m e xe cution Locke d No a cce s s AAP P rogra m e xe cution 150 us Unlocke d No a cce s s AAP Corte x 47 us If the device is locked, it can be unlocked by writing a valid key to the AAP_CMDKEY register and then setting the DEVICEERASE bit of the AAP_CMD register via the debug interface. The commands are not executed before AAP_CMDKEY is invalidated, so this register should be cleared to to start the erase operation. This operation erases the main block of flash, all lock bits are reset and debug access through the AHB-AP is enabled. The operation takes 40 ms to complete. Note that the SRAM contents will also be deleted during a device erase, while the UD-page is not erased. Even if the device is not locked, the can device can be erased through the AAP, using the above procedure during the AAP window. This can be useful if the device has been programmed with code that, e.g., disables the debug interface pins on start-up, or does something else that prevents communication with a debugger. If the device is locked, the debugger may read the status from the AAP_STATUS register. When the ERASEBUSY bit is set low after DEVICEERASE of the AAP_CMD register is set, the debugger may set the SYSRESETREQ bit in the AAP_CMD register. After reset, the debugger may resume a normal debug session through the AHB-AP. If the device is not locked, the device erase starts when the AAP window closes, so it is not possible to poll the status. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 26 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 6.5 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

The user can perform Flash memory read, read configuration and write operations through the Memory System Controller (MSC) . Why? 0 1 2 3 4 The MSC allows the application code, user data and flash lock bits to be stored in nonvolatile Flash memory. Certain memory system functions, such as program memory wait-states and bus faults are also configured from the MSC peripheral register interface, giving the developer the ability to dynamically customize the memory system performance, security level, energy consumption and error handling capabilities to the requirements at hand. 01000101011011100110010101110010 01100111011110010010000001001101 01101001011000110111001001101111 00100000011100100111010101101100 01100101011100110010000001110100 01101000011001010010000001110111 01101111011100100110110001100100 00100000011011110110011000100000 01101100011011110111011100101101 01100101011011100110010101110010 01100111011110010010000001101101 01101001011000110111001001101111 01100011011011110110111001110100 01110010011011110110110001101100 01100101011100100010000001100100 01100101011100110110100101100111 01101110001000010100010101101110 How? The MSC integrates a low-energy Flash IP with a charge pump, enabling minimum energy consumption while eliminating the need for external programming voltage to erase the memory. An easy to use write and erase interface is supported by an internal, fixed-frequency oscillator and autonomous flash timing and control reduces software complexity while not using other timer resources. Application code may dynamically scale between high energy optimization and high code execution performance through advanced read modes. 7.1 Introduction The Memory System Controller (MSC) is the program memory unit of the EFM32G microcontroller. The flash memory is readable and writable from both the Cortex-M3 and DMA. The flash memory is divided into two blocks; the main block and the information block. Program code is normally written to the main block. Additionally, the information block is available for special user data and flash lock bits.

The page can be erased and written by software. The page is erased by the ERASEPAGE command of the MSC_WRITECMD register. Note that the page is not erased by a device erase operation. The device erase operation is described in Section 6.4 (p. 25) . 7.3.2 Lock Bits (LB) Page Description This page contains the following information: * Debug Lock Word (DLW) * User data page Lock Word (ULW) * Main block Page Lock Words (PLWs) The words in this page are organized as shown in Table 7.2 (p. 31) : Table 7.2. Lock Bits Page Structure 127 DLW 126 ULW N PLW[N] ... ... 1 PLW[1] 0 PLW[0] Word 127 is the debug lock word (DLW). Bit 0 of this word is the debug lock bit. If this bit is 1, then debug access is enabled. Debug access to the core is disabled from power-on reset until the DLW is evaluated immediately before the Cortex-M3 starts execution of the user application code. If the bit is 0, then debug access to the core remains blocked. Word 126 is the user page lock word (ULW). Bit 0 of this word is the page lock bit. The lock bits can be reset by a device erase operation initiated from the Authentication Access Port (AAP) registers. The AAP is described in more detail in Section 6.4 (p. 25) . Note that the AAP is only accessible from the debug interface, and cannot be accessed from the Cortex-M3 core. There are 32 page lock bits per page lock word (PLW). Bit 0 refers to the first page and bit 31 refers to the last page within a PLW. Thus, PLW[0] contains lock bits for page 0-31 in the main block. Similarly, PLW[1] contains lock bits for page 32-63 and so on. A page is locked when the bit is 0. A locked page cannot be erased or written. The lock bits can be reset by a device erase operation initiated from the Authentication Access Port (AAP) registers. The AAP is described in more detail in Section 6.4 (p. 25) . Note that the AAP is only accessible from the debug interface, and cannot be accessed from the Cortex-M3 core. 7.3.3 Device Information (DI) Page This read-only page holds the calibration data for the oscillator and other analog peripherals from the production test as well as a unique device ID. The page is further described in Section 5.6 (p. 22) . 7.3.4 Post-reset Behavior Calibration values are automatically written to registers by the MSC before application code startup. The values are also available to read from the DI page for later reference by software. Other information such as the device ID and production date is also stored in the DI page and is readable from software. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 31 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 7.3.4.1 One Wait-state Access After reset, the HFCORECLK is normally 14 MHz from the HFRCO and the MODE field of the MSC_READCTRL register is set to WS1 (one wait-state). The reset value must be WS1 as an uncalibrated HFRCO may produce a frequency higher than 16 MHz. Software must not select a zero wait-state mode unless the clock is guaranteed to be 16 MHz or below, otherwise the resulting behavior is undefined. If a HFCORECLK frequency above 16 MHz is to be set by software, the MODE field of the MSC_READCTRL register must be set to WS1 or WS1SCBTP before the core clock is switched to the higher frequency clock source. When changing to a lower frequency, the MODE field of the MSC_READCTRL register can be set to WS0 or WS0SCBTP, but only after the frequency transition is completed. If the HFRCO is used, wait until the oscillator is stable on the new frequency. Otherwise, the behavior is unpredictable. 7.3.4.2 Zero Wait-state Access At 16 MHz and below, read operations from flash may be performed without any wait-states. Zero waitstate access greatly improves code execution performance at frequencies from 16 MHz and below. By default, the Cortex-M3 uses speculative prefetching and If-Then block folding to maximize code execution performance at the cost of additional flash accesses and energy consumption. 7.3.4.3 Suppressed Conditional Branch Target Prefetch (SCBTP) MSC offers a special instruction fetch mode which optimizes energy consumption by cancelling CortexM3 conditional branch target prefetches. Normally, the Cortex-M3 core prefetches both the next sequential instruction and the instruction at the branch target address when a conditional branch instruction reaches the pipeline decode stage. This prefetch scheme improves performance while one extra instruction is fetched from memory at each conditional branch, regardless of whether the branch is taken or not. To optimize for low energy, the MSC can be configured to cancel these speculative branch target prefetches. With this configuration, energy consumption is more optimal, as the branch target instruction fetch is delayed until the branch condition is evaluated. The performance penalty with this mode enabled is source code dependent, but is normally less than 1% for core frequencies from 16 MHz and below. To enable the mode at frequencies from 16 MHz and below write WS0SCBTP to the MODE field of the MSC_READCTRL register. For frequencies above 16 MHz, use the WS1SCBTP mode. An increased performance penalty per clock cycle must be expected compared to WS0SCBTP mode. The performance penalty in WS1SCBTP mode depends greatly on the density and organization of conditional branch instructions in the code. 7.3.4.4 Cortex-M3 If-Then Block Folding The Cortex-M3 offers a mechanism known as if-then block folding. This is a form of speculative prefetching where small if-then blocks are collapsed in the prefetch buffer if the condition evaluates to false. The instructions in the block then appear to execute in zero cycles. With this scheme, performance is optimized at the cost of higher energy consumption as the processor fetches more instructions from memory than it actually executes. To disable the mode, write a 1 to the DISFOLD bit in the NVIC Auxiliary Control Register; see the Cortex-M3 Technical Reference Manual for details. Normally, it is expected that this feature is most efficient at core frequencies above 16 MHz. Folding is enabled by default. 7.3.5 Erase and Write Operations Both page erase and write operations require that the address is written into the MSC_ADDRB register. For erase operations, the address may be any within the page to be erased. Load the address by writing 1 to the LADDRIM bit in the MSC_WRITECMD register. The LADDRIM bit only has to be written once when loading the first address. After each word is written the internal address register ADDR will be incremented automatically by 4. The INVADDR bit of the MSC_STATUS register is set if the loaded address is outside the flash and the LOCKED bit of the MSC_STATUS register is set if the page 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 32 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers addressed is locked. Any attempts to command erase of or write to the page are ignored if INVADDR or the LOCKED bits of the MSC_STATUS register are set. When a word is written to the MSC_WDATA register, the WDATAREADY bit of the MSC_STATUS register is cleared. When this status bit is set, software or DMA may write the next word. A single word write is commanded by setting the WRITEONCE bit of the MSC_WRITECMD register. The operation is complete when the BUSY bit of the MSC_STATUS register is cleared and control of the flash is handed back to the AHB interface, allowing application code to resume execution. For a DMA write the software must write the first word to the MSC_WDATA register and then set the WRITETRIG bit of the MSC_WRITECMD register. DMA triggers when the WDATAREADY bit of the MSC_STATUS register is set. It is possible to write words twice between each erase by keeping at 1 the bits that are not to be changed. Let us take as an example writing two 16 bit values, 0xAAAA and 0x5555. To safely write them in the same flash word this method can be used: * Write 0xFFFFAAAA (word in flash becomes 0xFFFFAAAA) * Write 0x5555FFFF (word in flash becomes 0x5555AAAA) Note that there is a maximum of two writes to the same word between each erase due to a physical limitation of the flash. Note The WRITEONCE, WRITETRIG and ERASEPAGE bits in the MSC_WRITECMD register cannot safely be written from code in Flash. It is recommended to place a small code section in RAM to set these bits and wait for the operation to complete. Also note that DMA transfers to or from any other address in Flash while a write or erase operation is in progress will produce unpredictable results. Note The MSC_WDATA and MSC_ADDRB registers are not retained when entering EM2 or lower energy modes. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 33 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 7.4 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

When changing to a lower frequency, this register can be set to WS0 or WS0SCBTP after the frequency transition has been completed. After reset, the core clock is 14 MHz from the HFRCO but the MODE field of MSC_READCTRL register is set to WS1. This is because the HFRCO may produce a frequency above 16 MHz before it is calibrated. If the HFRCO is used as clock source, wait until the oscillator is stable on the new frequency to avoid unpredictable behavior. Value Mode Description 0 WS0 Zero wait-states inserted in fetch or read transfers. 1 WS1 One wait-state inserted for each fetch or read transfer. This mode is required for a core frequency above 16 MHz. 2 WS0SCBTP Zero wait-states inserted with the Suppressed Conditional Branch Target Prefetch (SCBTP) function enabled. SCBTP saves energy by delaying the Cortex' conditional branch target prefetches until the conditional branch instruction is in the execute stage. When the instruction reaches this stage, the evaluation of the branch condition is completed and the core does not perform a speculative prefetch of both the branch target address and the next sequential address. With the SCBTP function enabled, one instruction fetch is saved for each branch not taken, with a negligible performance penalty. 3 WS1SCBTP One wait-state access with SCBTP enabled. 7.5.3 MSC_WRITECTRL - Write Control Register IRQERASEABORT Name Access 0 0 RW Access WREN RW 0 Reset 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 0x008 Bit Position 31 Offset Bit Name Reset Description 31:2 Reserved To ensure compatibility with future devices, always write bits to 0.

Why? The DMA can perform data transfers more energy efficiently than the CPU and allows autonomous operation in low energy modes. The LEUART can for instance provide full UART communication in EM2, consuming only a few A by using the DMA to move data between the LEUART and RAM. Fla s h RAM DMA controlle r How? Exte rna l Bus Inte rfa ce The DMA controller has multiple highly configurable, prioritized DMA channels. Advanced transfer modes such as ping-pong and scatter-gather make it possible to tailor the controller to the specific needs of an application. P e riphe ra ls 8.1 Introduction The Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller performs memory operations independently of the CPU. This has the benefit of reducing the energy consumption and the workload of the CPU, and enables the system to stay in low energy modes for example when moving data from the USART to RAM or from the External Bus Interface (EBI) to the DAC. The DMA controller uses the PL230 DMA controller 1 licensed from ARM . Each of the PL230s channels on the EFM32 can be connected to any of the EFM32 peripherals. 8.2 Features * The DMA controller is accessible as a memory mapped peripheral * Possible data transfers include * RAM/EBI/Flash to peripheral * RAM/EBI to Flash * Peripheral to RAM/EBI * RAM/EBI/Flash to RAM/EBI * The DMA controller has 8 independent channels * Each channel has one (primary) or two (primary and alternate) descriptors * The configuration for each channel includes * Transfer mode * Priority * Word-count * Word-size (8, 16, 32 bit) * The transfer modes include * Basic (using the primary or alternate DMA descriptor) 1 ARM PL230 homepage [http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.ddi0417a/index.html] 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 40 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * * * * * * * * Ping-pong (switching between the primary or alternate DMA descriptors, for continuous data flow to/from peripherals) * Scatter-gather (using the primary descriptor to configure the alternate descriptor) Each channel has a programmable transfer length Channels 0 and 1 support looped transfers Channel 0 supports 2D copy A DMA channel can be triggered by any of several sources: * Communication modules (USART, UART, LEUART) * Timers (TIMER) * Analog modules (DAC, ACMP, ADC) * External Bus Interface (EBI) * Software Programmable mapping between channel number and peripherals - any DMA channel can be triggered by any of the available sources Interrupts upon transfer completion Data transfer to/from LEUART in EM2 is supported by the DMA, providing extremely low energy consumption while performing UART communications 8.3 Block Diagram An overview of the DMA and the modules it interacts with is shown in Figure 8.1 (p. 41) .

It is capable of transferring data between peripherals and memory without involvement from the processor core. This can be used to increase system performance by off-loading the processor from copying large amounts of data or avoiding frequent interrupts to service peripherals needing more data or having available data. It can also be used to reduce the system energy consumption by making the DMA work autonomously with the LEUART for data transfer in EM2 without having to wake up the processor core from sleep. The DMA Controller contains 8 independent channels. Each of these channels can be connected to any of the available peripheral trigger sources by writing to the configuration registers, see Section 8.4.1 (p. 42) . In addition, each channel can be triggered by software (for large memory transfers or for debugging purposes). What the DMA Controller should do (when one of its channels is triggered) is configured through channel descriptors residing in system memory. Before enabling a channel, the software must therefore take care to write this configuration to memory. When a channel is triggered, the DMA Controller will first read the channel descriptor from system memory, and then it will proceed to perform the memory transfers as specified by the descriptor. The descriptor contains the memory address to read from, the memory address to write to, the number of bytes to be transferred, etc. The channel descriptor is described in detail in Section 8.4.3 (p. 52) . In addition to the basic transfer mode, the DMA Controller also supports two advanced transfer modes; ping-pong and scatter-gather. Ping-pong transfers are ideally suited for streaming data for high-speed peripheral communication as the DMA will be ready to retrieve the next incoming data bytes immediately while the processor core is still processing the previous ones (and similarly for outgoing communication). Scatter-gather involves executing a series of tasks from memory and allows sophisticated schemes to be implemented by software. Using different priority levels for the channels and setting the number of bytes after which the DMA Controller re-arbitrates, it is possible to ensure that timing-critical transfers are serviced on time. 8.4.1 Channel Select Configuration The channel select block allows selecting which peripheral's request lines (dma_req, dma_sreq) to connect to each DMA channel. This configuration is done by software through the control registers DMA_CH0_CTRLDMA_CH7_CTRL, with SOURCESEL and SIGSEL components. SOURCESEL selects which peripheral to listen to and SIGSEL picks which output signals to use from the selected peripheral. All peripherals are connected to dma_req. When this signal is triggered, the DMA performs a number R of transfers as specified by the channel descriptor (2 ). The USARTs are additionally connected to the dma_sreq line. When only dma_sreq is asserted but not dma_req, then the DMA will perform exactly one transfer only (given that dma_sreq is enabled by software). Note A DMA channel should not be active when the clock to the selected peripheral is off. 8.4.2 DMA control 8.4.2.1 DMA arbitration rate You can configure when the controller arbitrates during a DMA transfer. This enables you to reduce the latency to service a higher priority channel. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 42 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers The controller provides four bits that configure how many AHB bus transfers occur before it re-arbitrates. These bits are known as the R_power bits because the value you enter, R, is raised to the power of two 4 and this determines the arbitration rate. For example, if R = 4 then the arbitration rate is 2 , that is, the controller arbitrates every 16 DMA transfers. Table 8.1 (p. 43) lists the arbitration rates. Table 8.1. AHB bus transfer arbitration interval R_power Arbitrate after x DMA transfers b0000 x=1 b0001 x=2 b0010 x=4 b0011 x=8 b0100 x = 16 b0101 x = 32 b0110 x = 64 b0111 x = 128 b1000 x = 256 b1001 x = 512 b1010 - b1111 x = 1024 Note You must take care not to assign a low-priority channel with a large R_power because this prevents the controller from servicing high-priority requests, until it re-arbitrates. R The number of dma transfers N that need to be done is specified by the user. When N > 2 and is not an R R R integer multiple of 2 then the controller always performs sequences of 2 transfers until N < 2 remain to be transferred. The controller performs the remaining N transfers at the end of the DMA cycle. You store the value of the R_power bits in the channel control data structure. See Section 8.4.3.3 (p. 55) for more information about the location of the R_power bits in the data structure. 8.4.2.2 Priority When the controller arbitrates, it determines the next channel to service by using the following information: * the channel number * the priority level, default or high, that is assigned to the channel. You can configure each channel to use either the default priority level or a high priority level by setting the DMA_CHPRIS register. Channel number zero has the highest priority and as the channel number increases, the priority of a channel decreases. Table 8.2 (p. 43) lists the DMA channel priority levels in descending order of priority. Table 8.2.

Figure 8.2 (p. 44) shows the process it uses to determine which DMA transfer to perform next. Figure 8.2. Polling flowchart S ta rt polling Is the re a cha nne l re que s t ?

You can set the cycle_ctrl bits as Table 8.3 (p. 45) lists. Table 8.3. DMA cycle types cycle_ctrl Description b000 Channel control data structure is invalid b001 Basic DMA transfer b010 Auto-request b011 Ping-pong b100 Memory scatter-gather using the primary data structure b101 Memory scatter-gather using the alternate data structure b110 Peripheral scatter-gather using the primary data structure b111 Peripheral scatter-gather using the alternate data structure Note The cycle_ctrl bits are located in the channel_cfg memory location that Section 8.4.3.3 (p. 55) describes. R For all cycle types, the controller arbitrates after 2 DMA transfers. If you set a low-priority channel with R a large 2 value then it prevents all other channels from performing a DMA transfer, until the low-priority DMA transfer completes. Therefore, you must take care when setting the R_power, that you do not significantly increase the latency for high-priority channels. 8.4.2.3.1 Invalid After the controller completes a DMA cycle it sets the cycle type to invalid, to prevent it from repeating the same DMA cycle. 8.4.2.3.2 Basic In this mode, you configure the controller to use either the primary or the alternate data structure. After you enable the channel C and the controller receives a request for this channel, then the flow for this DMA cycle is as follows: R 1. The controller performs 2 transfers. If the number of transfers remaining becomes zero, then the flow continues at step 3 (p. 45) . 2. The controller arbitrates: * if a higher-priority channel is requesting service then the controller services that channel * if the peripheral or software signals a request to the controller then it continues at step 1 (p. 45) . 3. The controller sets dma_done[C] HIGH for one HFCORECLK cycle. This indicates to the host processor that the DMA cycle is complete. 8.4.2.3.3 Auto-request When the controller operates in this mode, it is only necessary for it to receive a single request to enable it to complete the entire DMA cycle. This enables a large data transfer to occur, without significantly increasing the latency for servicing higher priority requests, or requiring multiple requests from the processor or peripheral. You can configure the controller to use either the primary or the alternate data structure. After you enable the channel C and the controller receives a request for this channel, then the flow for this DMA cycle is as follows: 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 45 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers R 1. The controller performs 2 transfers for channel C. If the number of transfers remaining is zero the flow continues at step 3 (p. 46) . 2. The controller arbitrates. When channel C has the highest priority then the DMA cycle continues at step 1 (p. 46) . 3. The controller sets dma_done[C] HIGH for one HFCORECLK cycle. This indicates to the host processor that the DMA cycle is complete. 8.4.2.3.4 Ping-pong In ping-pong mode, the controller performs a DMA cycle using one of the data structures (primary or alternate) and it then performs a DMA cycle using the other data structure. The controller continues to switch from primary to alternate to primary... until it reads a data structure that is invalid, or until the host processor disables the channel. Figure 8.3 (p. 46) shows an example of a ping-pong DMA transaction. Figure 8.3.

The host processor configures the primary data structure for task A. 2. The host processor configures the alternate data structure for task B. This enables the controller to immediately switch to task B after task A completes, provided that a higher priority channel does not require servicing. 3. The controller receives a request and performs four DMA transfers. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 46 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 4. The controller arbitrates. After the controller receives a request for this channel, the flow continues if the channel has the highest priority. 5. The controller performs the remaining two DMA transfers. 6. The controller sets dma_done[C] HIGH for one HFCORECLK cycle and enters the arbitration process. After task A completes, the host processor can configure the primary data structure for task C. This enables the controller to immediately switch to task C after task B completes, provided that a higher priority channel does not require servicing. After the controller receives a new request for the channel and it has the highest priority then task B commences: Task B 7. The controller performs four DMA transfers. 8. The controller arbitrates. After the controller receives a request for this channel, the flow continues if the channel has the highest priority. 9. The controller performs four DMA transfers. 10.The controller arbitrates. After the controller receives a request for this channel, the flow continues if the channel has the highest priority. 11.The controller performs the remaining four DMA transfers. 12.The controller sets dma_done[C] HIGH for one HFCORECLK cycle and enters the arbitration process. After task B completes, the host processor can configure the alternate data structure for task D. After the controller receives a new request for the channel and it has the highest priority then task C commences: Task C 13.The controller performs two DMA transfers. 14.The controller sets dma_done[C] HIGH for one HFCORECLK cycle and enters the arbitration process. After task C completes, the host processor can configure the primary data structure for task E. After the controller receives a new request for the channel and it has the highest priority then task D commences: Task D 15.The controller performs four DMA transfers. 16.The controller arbitrates. After the controller receives a request for this channel, the flow continues if the channel has the highest priority. 17.The controller performs the remaining DMA transfer. 18.The controller sets dma_done[C] HIGH for one HFCORECLK cycle and enters the arbitration process. After the controller receives a new request for the channel and it has the highest priority then task E commences: Task E 19.The controller performs four DMA transfers. 20.The controller arbitrates. After the controller receives a request for this channel, the flow continues if the channel has the highest priority. 21.The controller performs the remaining three DMA transfers. 22.The controller sets dma_done[C] HIGH for one HFCORECLK cycle and enters the arbitration process. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 47 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers If the controller receives a new request for the channel and it has the highest priority then it attempts to start the next task. However, because the host processor has not configured the alternate data structure, and on completion of task D the controller set the cycle_ctrl bits to b000, then the ping-pong DMA transaction completes. Note You can also terminate the ping-pong DMA cycle in Figure 8.3 (p. 46) , if you configure task E to be a basic DMA cycle by setting the cycle_ctrl field to 3'b001. 8.4.2.3.5 Memory scatter-gather In memory scatter-gather mode the controller receives an initial request and then performs four DMA transfers using the primary data structure. After this transfer completes, it starts a DMA cycle using the alternate data structure. After this cycle completes, the controller performs another four DMA transfers using the primary data structure. The controller continues to switch from primary to alternate to primary... until either: * the host processor configures the alternate data structure for a basic cycle * it reads an invalid data structure. Note After the controller completes the N primary transfers it invalidates the primary data structure by setting the cycle_ctrl field to b000. The controller only asserts dma_done[C] when the scatter-gather transaction completes using an autorequest cycle. In scatter-gather mode, the controller uses the primary data structure to program the alternate data structure. Table 8.4 (p. 48) lists the fields of the channel_cfg memory location for the primary data structure, that you must program with constant values and those that can be user defined.

The host processor configures the primary data structure to operate in memory scatter-gather mode by setting cycle_ctrl to b100. Because a data structure for a R single channel consists of four words then you must set 2 to 4. In this example, there are four tasks and therefore N is set to 16. 2. The host processor writes the data structure for tasks A, B, C, and D to the memory locations that the primary src_data_end_ptr specifies. 3. The host processor enables the channel. The memory scatter-gather transaction commences when the controller receives a request on dma_req[ ] or a manual request from the host processor. The transaction continues as follows: Primary, copy A Task A Primary, copy B Task B Primary, copy C 1. After receiving a request, the controller performs four DMA transfers.

Task C Primary, copy D Task D 8.4.2.3.6 Peripheral scatter-gather In peripheral scatter-gather mode the controller receives an initial request from a peripheral and then it performs four DMA transfers using the primary data structure. It then immediately starts a DMA cycle using the alternate data structure, without re-arbitrating. Note These are the only circumstances, where the controller does not enter the arbitration process after completing a transfer using the primary data structure. After this cycle completes, the controller re-arbitrates and if the controller receives a request from the peripheral that has the highest priority then it performs another four DMA transfers using the primary data structure. It then immediately starts a DMA cycle using the alternate data structure, without rearbitrating. The controller continues to switch from primary to alternate to primary... until either: * the host processor configures the alternate data structure for a basic cycle * it reads an invalid data structure. Note After the controller completes the N primary transfers it invalidates the primary data structure by setting the cycle_ctrl field to b000. The controller asserts dma_done[C] when the scatter-gather transaction completes using a basic cycle. In scatter-gather mode, the controller uses the primary data structure to program the alternate data structure.

After the host processor detects that dma_err is HIGH, it must check which channel was active when the ERROR occurred. It can do this by: 1. Reading the DMA_CHENS register to create a list of disabled channels. When a channel asserts dma_done[ ] then the controller disables the channel. The program running on the host processor must always keep a record of which channels have recently asserted their dma_done[ ] outputs. 2. It must compare the disabled channels list from step 1 (p. 52) , with the record of the channels that have recently set their dma_done[ ] outputs. The channel with no record of dma_done[C] being set is the channel that the ERROR occurred on. 8.4.3 Channel control data structure You must provide an area of system memory to contain the channel control data structure. This system memory must: 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 52 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * provide a contiguous area of system memory that the controller and host processor can access * have a base address that is an integer multiple of the total size of the channel control data structure. Figure 8.6 (p. 53) shows the memory that the controller requires for the channel control data structure, when all 8 channels and the optional alternate data structure are in use. Figure 8.6.

The controller uses the lower 8 address bits to enable it to access all of the elements in the structure and therefore the base address must be at 0xXXXXXX00. You can configure the base address for the primary data structure by writing the appropriate value in the DMA_CTRLBASE register. You do not need to set aside the full 256 bytes if all dma channels are not used or if all alternate descriptors are not used. If, for example, only 4 channels are used and they only need the primary descriptors, then only 64 bytes need to be set aside. Table 8.6 (p. 53) lists the address bits that the controller uses when it accesses the elements of the channel control data structure. Table 8.6.

Arbitrates after 512 DMA transfers. Arbitrates after 1024 DMA transfers. This means that no arbitration occurs during the DMA transfer because the maximum transfer size is 1024. Prior to the DMA cycle commencing, these bits represent the total number of DMA transfers that the DMA cycle contains. You must set these bits according to the size of DMA cycle that you require. The 10-bit value indicates the number of DMA transfers, minus one. The possible values are: b000000000 = 1 DMA transfer b000000001 = 2 DMA transfers b000000010 = 3 DMA transfers b000000011 = 4 DMA transfers b000000100 = 5 DMA transfers . . . b111111111 = 1024 DMA transfers. The controller updates this field immediately prior to it entering the arbitration process. This enables the controller to store the number of outstanding DMA transfers that are necessary to complete the DMA cycle. [3] next_useburst Controls if the chnl_useburst_set [C] bit is set to a 1, when the controller is performing a peripheral scatter-gather and is completing a DMA cycle that uses the alternate data structure. Note Immediately prior to completion of the DMA cycle that the alternate data structure specifies, the controller sets the chnl_useburst_set [C] bit to 0 if the number of R remaining transfers is less than 2 . The setting of the next_useburst bit controls if the controller performs an additional modification of the chnl_useburst_set [C] bit. In peripheral scatter-gather DMA cycle then after the DMA cycle that uses the alternate data structure completes , either: 0 = the controller does not change the value of the chnl_useburst_set [C] bit. If the chnl_useburst_set [C] bit is 0 then for all the remaining DMA cycles in the peripheral scattergather transaction, the controller responds to requests on dma_req[ ] and dma_sreq[ ], when it performs a DMA cycle that uses an alternate data structure. 1 = the controller sets the chnl_useburst_set [C] bit to a 1. Therefore, for the remaining DMA cycles in the peripheral scatter-gather transaction, the controller only responds to requests on dma_req[ ], when it performs a DMA cycle that uses an alternate data structure. [2:0] cycle_ctrl The operating mode of the DMA cycle. The modes are: b000 b001 b100 Stop. Indicates that the data structure is invalid. Basic. The controller must receive a new request, prior to it entering the arbitration process, to enable the DMA cycle to complete. Auto-request. The controller automatically inserts a request for the appropriate channel during the arbitration process. This means that the initial request is sufficient to enable the DMA cycle to complete. Ping-pong. The controller performs a DMA cycle using one of the data structures. After the DMA cycle completes, it performs a DMA cycle using the other data structure. After the DMA cycle completes and provided that the host processor has updated the original data structure, it performs a DMA cycle using the original data structure. The controller continues to perform DMA cycles until it either reads an invalid data structure or the host processor changes the cycle_ctrl bits to b001 or b010. See Section 8.4.2.3.4 (p. 46) .

Peripheral scatter/gather. See Section 8.4.2.3.6 (p. 50) . When the controller operates in peripheral scatter-gather mode, you must only use this value in the alternate data structure. R At the start of a DMA cycle, or 2 DMA transfer, the controller fetches the channel_cfg from system R memory. After it performs 2 , or N, transfers it stores the updated channel_cfg in system memory. The controller does not support a dst_size value that is different to the src_size value. If it detects a mismatch in these values, it uses the src_size value for source and destination and when it next updates the n_minus_1 field, it also sets the dst_size field to the same as the src_size field. After the controller completes the N transfers it sets the cycle_ctrl field to b000, to indicate that the channel_cfg data is invalid. This prevents it from repeating the same DMA transfer. 8.4.3.4 Address calculation To calculate the source address of a DMA transfer, the controller performs a left shift operation on the n_minus_1 value by a shift amount that src_inc specifies, and then subtracts the resulting value from the source data end pointer. Similarly, to calculate the destination address of a DMA transfer, it performs a left shift operation on the n_minus_1 value by a shift amount that dst_inc specifies, and then subtracts the resulting value from the destination end pointer. Depending on the value of src_inc and dst_inc, the source address and destination address can be calculated using the equations: src_inc = b00 and dst_inc = b00 * * * * * * * * src_inc = b01 and dst_inc = b01 src_inc = b10 and dst_inc = b10 src_inc = b11 and dst_inc = b11 source address = src_data_end_ptr - n_minus_1 destination address = dst_data_end_ptr - n_minus_1. source address = src_data_end_ptr - (n_minus_1 << 1) destination address = dst_data_end_ptr - (n_minus_1 << 1). source address = src_data_end_ptr - (n_minus_1 << 2) destination address = dst_data_end_ptr - (n_minus_1 << 2). source address = src_data_end_ptr destination address = dst_data_end_ptr. Table 8.10 (p. 58) lists the destination addresses for a DMA cycle of six words. Table 8.10.

After the controller completes the DMA cycle it invalidates the channel_cfg memory location by clearing the cycle_ctrl field. 2 8.4.4 Interaction with the EMU The DMA interacts with the Energy Management Unit (EMU) to allow transfers from , e.g., the LEUART to occur in EM2. The EMU can wake up the DMA sufficiently long to allow data transfers to occur. See section "DMA Support" in the LEUART documentation. 8.4.5 Interrupts The PL230 dma_done[n:0] signals (one for each channel) as well as the dma_err signal, are available as interrupts to the Cortex-M3 core. They are combined into one interrupt vector, DMA_INT. If the interrupt for the DMA is enabled in the ARM Cortex-M3 core, an interrupt will be made if one or more of the interrupt flags in DMA_IF and their corresponding bits in DMA_IEN are set. 8.5 Examples A basic example of how to program the DMA for transferring 42 bytes from the USART1 to memory location 0x20003420.

S YS RES ETREQ The Power-on Reset and Brown-out Detector of the EFM32G provides power line monitoring with exceptionally low power consumption.

If one or more reset sources go active, the RMU applies reset to the EFM32G. When the reset sources go inactive the EFM32G starts up. At startup the EFM32G loads the stack pointer and program entry point from memory, and starts execution. As seen in Figure 9.1 (p. 80) the Power-on Reset, Brown-out Detectors, Watchdog timeout and RESETn pin all reset the whole system including the Debug Interface. A Core Lockup condition or a System reset request from software resets the whole system except the Debug Interface. Whenever a reset source is active, the corresponding bit in the RMU_RSTCAUSE register is set. At startup the program code may investigate this register in order to determine the cause of the reset. The register must be cleared by software. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 79 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 9.1.

Before the threshold voltage is reached, the EFM32G is kept in reset state. The operation of the POR is illustrated in Figure 9.2 (p. 81) , with the active low POWERONn reset signal. The reason for the "unknown" region is that the corresponding supply voltage is too low for any reliable operation. Figure 9.2.

The BODs are constantly monitoring the voltages. Whenever the voltage is below the VBODthr value (see Electrical Characteristics for details), the corresponding active low BROWNOUTn line is held low. The BODs also include hysteresis, which prevents instability in the corresponding BROWNOUTn line when the supply is crossing the VBODthr limit or the AVDD bods drops below decouple pin (DEC). The operation of the BOD is illustrated in Figure 9.3 (p. 81) . The "unknown" regions are handled by the POR module. Figure 9.3. RMU Brown-out Detector Operation V VBODhys t VBODthr VBODhys t VDD BROWNOUTn Unknown Unknown time 9.3.4 RESETn pin Reset Forcing the RESETn pin low generates a reset of the EFM32G. The RESETn pin includes an on-chip pullup resistor, and can therefore be left unconnected if no external reset source is needed. Also connected to the RESETn line is a filter which prevents glitches from resetting the EFM32G. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 81 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 9.3.5 Watchdog Reset The Watchdog circuit is a timer which (when enabled) must be cleared by software regularly.

The EMU (Energy Management Unit) handles the different low energy modes in the EFM32G microcontrollers. Why? 0 1 2 3 The need for performance and peripheral functions varies over time in most applications. By efficiently scaling the available resources in real-time to match the demands of the application, the energy consumption can be kept at a minimum. 4 How? With a broad selection of energy modes, a high number of low-energy peripherals available even in EM2, and short wakeup time (2 s from EM2 and EM3), applications can dynamically minimize energy consumption during program execution. 10.1 Introduction The Energy Management Unit (EMU) manages all the low energy modes (EM) in EFM32G microcontrollers. Each energy mode manages if the CPU and the various peripherals are available. The energy modes range from EM0 to EM4, where EM0, also called run mode, enables the CPU and all peripherals. The lowest recoverable energy mode, EM3, disables the CPU and most peripherals while maintaining wake-up and RAM functionality. EM4 disables everything except the POR and pin reset. The various energy modes differ in: * * * * * * Energy consumption CPU activity Reaction time Wake-up triggers Active peripherals Available clock sources Low energy modes EM1 to EM4 are enabled through the application software. In EM1-EM3, a range of wake-up triggers return the microcontroller back to EM0. EM4 can only return to EM0 by power on reset or external pin reset. The EMU can also be used to turn off the power to unused SRAM blocks. 10.2 Features * Energy Mode control from software * Flexible wakeup from low energy modes * Low wakeup time 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 85 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 10.3 Functional Description The Energy Management Unit (EMU) is responsible for managing the wide range of energy modes available in EFM32G. An overview of the EMU module is shown in Figure 10.1 (p. 86) . Figure 10.1.

The energy management state machine is triggered from the Cortex-M3 and controls the internal voltage regulators, oscillators, memories and interrupt systems in the low energy modes. Events from the interrupt or reset systems can in turn cause the energy management state machine to return to its active state. This is further described in the following sections. 10.3.1 Energy Modes There are five main energy modes available in EFM32G, called Energy Mode 0 (EM0) through Energy Mode 4 (EM4). EM0, also called the active mode, is the energy mode in which any peripheral function can be enabled and the Cortex-M3 core is executing instructions. EM1 through EM4, also called low energy modes, provide a selection of reduced peripheral functionality that also lead to reduced energy consumption, as described below. Figure 10.2 (p. 87) shows the transitions between different energy modes. After reset the EMU will always start in EM0. A transition from EM0 to another energy mode is always initiated by software. EM0 is the highest activity mode, in which all functionality is available. EM0 is therefore also the mode with highest energy consumption. The low energy modes EM1 through EM4 result in less functionality being available, and therefore also reduced energy consumption. The Cortex-M3 is not executing instructions in any low energy mode. Each low energy mode provides different energy consumptions associated with it, for example because a different set of peripherals are enabled or because these peripherals are configured differently. A transition from EM0 to a low energy mode can only be triggered by software. A transition from EM1 - EM3 to EM0 can be triggered by an enabled interrupt or event. In addition, a chip reset will return the device to EM0.A transition from EM4 can only be triggered by a pin reset or power-on reset. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 86 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 10.2.

Instead, a wakeup will transition back to EM0, in which software can enter any other low energy mode. An overview of the supported energy modes and the functionality available in each mode is shown in Table 10.1 (p. 88) . Most peripheral functionality indicated as "On" in a particular energy mode can also be turned off from software in order to save further energy. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 87 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Table 10.1.

A Wait For Interrupt (WFI) or Wait For Event (WFE) instruction from the Cortex-M3 triggers the transition into a low energy mode. The transition into a low energy mode can optionally be delayed until the lowest priority Interrupt Service Routine (ISR) is exited, if the SLEEPONEXIT bit in the Cortex-M3 System Control Register is set. Entering the lowest energy mode, EM4, is done by writing a sequence to the EM4CTRL bitfield in the EMU_CTRL register. Writing a zero to the EM4CTRL bitfield will restart the power sequence. EM2BLOCK prevents the EMU to enter EM2 or lower, and it will instead enter EM1. EM3 is equal to EM2, except that the LFACLK/LFBCLK are disabled in EM3. The LFACLK/LFBCLK must be disabled by the user before entering low energy mode. The EMVREG bit in EMU_CTRL can be used to prevent the voltage regulator from being turned off in low energy modes. The device will then essentially stay in EM1 (with HF oscillators disabled) when entering a low energy mode. Note that if a DMA transfer is initiated in this mode, the HF-oscillators will start and remain enabled until the device is woken up from an EM2 interrupt. Table 10.2.

EFM32G supports several different oscillators with minimized power consumption and short start-up time. An additional separate RC oscillator is used for flash programming and debug trace. The CMU also has HW support for calibration of RC oscillators. 4 Why? WDOG clock Oscillators and clocks contribute significantly to the power consumption of the MCU. With the low power oscillators combined with the flexible clock control scheme, it is possible to minimize the energy consumption in any given application. LETIMER clock LCD clock Os cilla tors CMU P e riphe ra l A clock How? P e riphe ra l B clock The CMU can configure different clock sources, enable/disable clocks to peripherals on an individual basis and set the prescaler for the different clocks. The short oscillator start-up times makes duty-cycling between active mode and the different low energy modes (EM2-EM4) very efficient. The calibration feature ensures high accuracy RC oscillators. Several interrupts are available to avoid CPU polling of flags. P e riphe ra l C clock P e riphe ra l D clock CP U clock 11.1 Introduction The Clock Management Unit (CMU) is responsible for controlling the oscillators and clocks on-board the EFM32G. The CMU provides the capability to turn on and off the clock on an individual basis to all peripheral modules in addition to enable/disable and configure the available oscillators. The high degree of flexibility enables software to minimize energy consumption in any specific application by not wasting power on peripherals and oscillators that are inactive. 11.2 Features * Multiple clock sources available: * 1-28 MHz High Frequency RC Oscillator (HFRCO) * 4-32 MHz High Frequency Crystal Oscillator (HFXO) * 32768 Hz Low Frequency RC Oscillator (LFRCO) * 32768 Hz Low Frequency Crystal Oscillator (LFXO) * 1000 Hz Ultra Low Frequency RC Oscillator (ULFRCO) * * Low power oscillators * Low start-up times * Separate prescaler for High Frequency Core Clocks (HFCORECLK) and Peripheral Clocks (HFPERCLK) 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 94 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * * * * Individual clock prescaler selection for each Low Energy Peripheral Clock Gating on an individual basis to core modules and all peripherals Selectable clocks can be output on two pins for use externally.

This clock is used by the CMU and drives the two prescalers that generate HFCORECLK and HFPERCLK. The HFCLK can be driven by a high-frequency 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 96 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers oscillator (HFRCO or HFXO) or one of the low-frequency oscillators (LFRCO or LFXO). By default the HFRCO is selected. In most applications, one of the high frequency oscillators will be the preferred choice. To change the selected HFCLK write to HFCLKSEL in CMU_CMD. The HFCLK is running in EM0 and EM1. 11.3.1.2 HFCORECLK - High Frequency Core Clock HFCORECLK is a prescaled version of HFCLK. This clock drives the Core Modules, which consists of the CPU and modules that are tightly coupled to the CPU, e.g. MSC, DMA etc. This also includes the interface to the Low Energy Peripherals. Some of the modules that are driven by this clock can be clock gated completely when not in use. This is done by clearing the clock enable bit for the specific module in CMU_HFCORECLKEN0. The frequency of HFCORECLK is set using the CMU_HFCORECLKDIV register. The setting can be changed dynamically and the new setting takes effect immediately. Note Note that if HFPERCLK runs faster than HFCORECLK, the number of clock cycles for each bus-access to peripheral modules will increase with the ratio between the clocks. Please refer to Section 5.2.3.2 (p. 18) for more details. 11.3.1.3 HFPERCLK - High Frequency Peripheral Clock Like HFCORECLK, HFPERCLK can also be a prescaled version of HFCLK. This clock drives the High-Frequency Peripherals. All the peripherals that are driven by this clock can be clock gated completely when not in use. This is done by clearing the clock enable bit for the specific peripheral in CMU_HFPERCLKEN0. The frequency of HFPERCLK is set using the CMU_HFPERCLKDIV register. The setting can be changed dynamically and the new setting takes effect immediately. Note Note that if HFPERCLK runs faster than HFCORECLK, the number of clock cycles for each bus-access to peripheral modules will increase with the ratio between the clocks. E.g. if a bus-access normally takes three cycles, it will take 9 cycles if HFPERCLK runs three times as fast as the HFCORECLK. 11.3.1.4 LFACLK - Low Frequency A Clock LFACLK is the selected clock for the Low Energy A Peripherals. There are three selectable sources for LFACLK: LFRCO, LFXO and HFCORECLKLE/2. In addition, the LFACLK can be disabled. From reset, the LFACLK source is set to LFRCO. However, note that the LFRCO is disabled from reset. The selection is configured using the LFA field in CMU_LFCLKSEL. The HFCORECLKLE/2 setting allows the Low Energy A Peripherals to be used as high-frequency peripherals. Note If HFCORECLK/2 is selected as LFACLK, the clock will stop in EM2/3. Each Low Energy Peripheral that is clocked by LFACLK has its own prescaler setting and enable bit. The prescaler settings are configured using CMU_LFAPRESC0 and the clock enable bits can be found in CMU_LFACLKEN0. Notice that the LCD has an additional high resolution prescaler for Frame Rate Control, configured by FDIV in CMU_LCDCTRL. When operating in oversampling mode, the pulse counters are clocked by LFACLK. This is configured for each pulse counter (n) individually by setting PCNTnCLKSEL in CMU_PCNTCTRL. 11.3.1.5 LFBCLK - Low Frequency B Clock LFBCLK is the selected clock for the Low Energy B Peripherals. There are three selectable sources for LFBCLK: LFRCO, LFXO and HFCORECLKLE/2. In addition, the LFBCLK can be disabled. From reset, the LFBCLK source is set to LFRCO. However, note that the LFRCO is disabled from reset. The selection is configured using the LFB field in CMU_LFCLKSEL. The HFCORECLKLE/2 setting allows the Low Energy B Peripherals to be used as high-frequency peripherals. Note If HFCORECLK/2 is selected as LFBCLK, the clock will stop in EM2/3. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 97 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Each Low Energy Peripheral that is clocked by LFBCLK has its own prescaler setting and enable bit. The prescaler settings are configured using CMU_LFBPRESC0 and the clock enable bits can be found in CMU_LFBCLKEN0. 11.3.1.6 PCNTnCLK - Pulse Counter n Clock Each available pulse counter is driven by its own clock, PCNTnCLK where n is the pulse counter instance number. Each pulse counter can be configured to use an external pin (PCNTn_S0) or LFACLK as PCNTnCLK. 11.3.1.7 WDOGCLK - Watchdog Timer Clock The Watchdog Timer (WDOG) can be configured to use one of three different clock sources: LFRCO, LFXO or ULFRCO. ULFRCO (Ultra Low Frequency RC Oscillator) is a separate 1 kHz RC oscillator that also runs in EM3. 11.3.1.8 AUXCLK - Auxiliary Clock AUXCLK is a 14 MHz clock driven by a separate RC oscillator, AUXHFRCO. This clock is used for flash programming and Serial Wire Output (SWO). During flash programming, this clock will be active. If the AUXHFRCO has not been enabled explicitly by software, the MSC module will automatically start and stop it. The AUXHFRCO is enabled by writing a 1 to AUXHFRCOEN in CMU_OSCENCMD. This explicit enabling is required when SWO is used. 11.3.2 Oscillator Selection 11.3.2.1 Start-up Time The different oscillators have different start-up times. For the RC oscillators, the start-up time is fixed, but both the LFXO and the HFXO have configurable start-up time. At the end of the start-up time a ready flag is set to indicated that the start-up time has exceeded and that the clock is available. The low startup time values can be used for an external clock source of already high quality, while the higher start-up times should be used when the clock signal is coming directly from a crystal. The startup time for HFXO and LFXO can be set by configuring the HFXOTIMEOUT and LFXOTIMEOUT bitfields, respectively. Both bitfields are located in CMU_CTRL. For HFXO it is also possible to enable a glitch detection filter by setting HFXOGLITCHDETEN in CMU_CTRL. The glitch detector will reset the start-up counter if a glitch is detected, making the start-up process start over again. There are individual bits for each oscillator indicating the status of the oscillator: * ENABLED - Indicates that the oscillator is enabled * READY - Start-up time is exceeded * SELECTED - Start-up time is exceeded and oscillator is chosen as clock source These status bits are located in the CMU_STATUS register. 11.3.2.2 Switching Clock Source The HFRCO oscillator is a low energy oscillator with extremely short wake-up time. Therefore, this oscillator is always chosen by hardware as the clock source for HFCLK when the device starts up (e.g. after reset and after waking up from EM2 and EM3). After reset, the HFRCO frequency is 14 MHz. Software can switch between the different clock sources at run-time. E.g., when the HFRCO is the clock source, software can switch to HFXO by writing the field HFCLKSEL in the CMU_CMD command register. See Figure 11.2 (p. 99) for a description of the sequence of events for this specific operation. Note It is important first to enable the HFXO since switching to a disabled oscillator will effectively stop HFCLK and only a reset can recover the system. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 98 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers During the start-up period HFCLK will stop since the oscillator driving it is not ready. This effectively stalls the Core Modules and the High-Frequency Peripherals. It is possible to avoid this by first enabling the HFXO and then wait for the oscillator to become ready before switching the clock source. This way, the system continues to run on the HFRCO until the HFXO has timed out and provides a reliable clock. This sequence of events is shown in Figure 11.3 (p. 99) . A separate flag is set when the oscillator is ready. This flag can also be configured to generate an interrupt. Figure 11.2.

To ensure no stalls in the Low Energy Peripherals, the clock source should be ready before switching to it. Note To save energy, remember to turn off all oscillators not in use. 11.3.3 Oscillator Configuration 11.3.3.1 HFXO and LFXO The crystal oscillators are by default configured to ensure safe startup and operation of the most common crystals. In order to optimize startup margin, startup time and power consumption for a given crystal, it is possible to adjust the gain in the oscillator. HFXO gain can be increased by setting HFXOBOOST field in CMU_CTRL, LFXO gain can be increased by setting LFXOBOOST field in CMU_CTRL. It is important that the boost settings, along with the crystal load capacitors are matched to the crystals in use. Correct values for these parameters can be found using the energyAware Designer. The HFXO crystal is connected to the HFXTAL_N/HFXTAL_P pins as shown in Figure 11.4 (p. 100) Figure 11.4. HFXO Pin Connection HFXTAL_N HFXTAL_P 4-32 MHz C L1 C L2 MCU Similarly, the LFXO crystal is connected to the LFXTAL_N/LFXTAL_P pins as shown in Figure 11.5 (p. 100) Figure 11.5. LFXO Pin Connection LFXTAL_N LFXTAL_P 32.768kHz C L1 MCU C L2 It is possible to connect an external clock source to HFXTAL_N/LFXTAL_N pin of the HFXO or LFXO oscillator. By configuring the HFXOMODE/LFXOMODE fields in CMU_CTRL, the HFXO/LFXO can be bypassed. 11.3.3.2 HFRCO, LFRCO and AUXHFRCO The HFRCO can be set to one of several different frequency bands from 1 MHz to 28 MHz by setting the BAND field in CMU_HFRCOCTRL.The HFRCO frequency bands are calibrated during production test, and the production tested calibration values can be read from the Device Information (DI) page. The DI page contains a separate tuning value for each frequency band. During reset HFRCO tuning value is 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 100 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers set to the production calibrated value for the 14 MHz band, which is the default frequency band. When changing to a different HFRCO band, make sure to also update the tuning value. The LFRCO and AUXHFRCO are also calibrated in production and their TUNING value is set to the correct value during reset. 11.3.3.3 RC oscillator calibration It is possible to calibrate the HFRCO and LFRCO to achieve higher accuracy (see the device datasheets for details on accuracy). The frequency is adjusted by changing the TUNING fields in CMU_HFRCOCTRL/CMU_LFRCOCTRL. Changing to a higher value will result in a higher frequency. Please refer to the datasheet for stepsize details. The CMU has built-in HW support to efficiently calibrate the RC oscillators at run-time, see Figure 11.6 (p. 101) The concept is to select a reference and compare the RC frequency with the reference frequency. When the calibration circuit is started, one down-counter running on HFCLK and one up-counter running on a selectable reference clock are started simultaneously. The down-counter counts for CMU_CALCNT +1 cycles. When the down-counter has reached 0, both counters are stopped and software can read out the reference counter value (CALCLK counter) and compare with the start value of the down-counter. Then it is easy to find the ratio between the reference and the oscillator subject to the calibration. With this HW support, it is simple to write efficient calibration algorithms in software.

The output pins must be configured in the CMU_ROUTE register. * LFRCO or LFXO can be output on one pin (CMU_OUT1) * HFRCO, HFXO, HFCLK/2, HFCLK/4, HFCLK/8, HFCLK/16 or ULFRCO can be output on another pin (CMU_OUT0) Note that HFXO and HFRCO clock outputs to pin can be unstable after startup and should not be output on a pin before HFXORDY/HFRCORDY is set high in CMU_STATUS. 11.3.5 Protection It is possible to lock the control- and command registers to prevent unintended software writes to critical clock settings. This is controlled by the CMU_LOCK register. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 102 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 11.4 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

If a software failure or external event renders the MCU unresponsive, a Watchdog timeout will reset the system to a known, safe state. Counte r va lue Wa tchdog cle a r S ys te m re s e t Time out pe riod How? An enabled Watchdog Timer implements a configurable timeout period. If the CPU fails to re-start the Watchdog Timer before it times out, a full system reset will be triggered. The Watchdog consumes insignificant power, and allows the device to remain safely in low energy modes for up to 256 seconds at a time. Time 12.1 Introduction The purpose of the watchdog timer is to generate a reset in case of a system failure, to increase application reliability. The failure may e.g. be caused by an external event, such as an ESD pulse, or by a software failure. 12.2 Features * Clock input from selectable oscillators * Internal 32.768 Hz RC oscillator * Internal 1 kHz RC oscillator * External 32.768 Hz XTAL oscillator * Configurable timeout period from 9 to 256k watchdog clock cycles * Individual selection to keep running or freeze when entering EM2 or EM3 * Selection to keep running or freeze when entering debug mode * Selection to block the CPU from entering Energy Mode 4 * Selection to block the CMU from disabling the selected watchdog clock 12.3 Functional Description The watchdog is enabled by setting the EN bit in WDOG_CTRL. When enabled, the watchdog counts up to the period value configured through the PERSEL field in WDOG_CTRL. If the watchdog timer is not cleared to 0 (by writing a 1 to the CLEAR bit in WDOG_CMD) before the period is reached, the chip is reset. If a timely clear command is issued, the timer starts counting up from 0 again. The watchdog can optionally be locked by writing the LOCK bit in WDOG_CTRL. Once locked, it cannot be disabled or reconfigured by software. The watchdog counter is reset when EN is reset. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 123 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 12.3.1 Clock Source Three clock sources are available for use with the watchdog, through the CLKSEL field in WDOG_CTRL. The corresponding clocks must be enabled in the CMU. The SWOSCBLOCK bit in WDOG_CTRL can be written to prevent accidental disabling of the selected clocks. Also, setting this bit will automatically start the selected oscillator source when the watchdog is enabled. The PERSEL field in WDOG_CTRL is used to divide the selected watchdog clock, and the timeout for the watchdog timer can be calculated like this: WDOG Timeout Equation TTIMEOUT = (2 3+PERSEL + 1)/f, (12.1) where f is the frequency of the selected clock. It is recommended to clear the watchdog first, if PERSEL is changed while the watchdog is enabled. To use this module, the LE interface clock must be enabled in CMU_HFCORECLKEN0, in addition to the module clock. Note Before changing the clock source for WDOG, the EN bit in WDOG_CTRL should be cleared. In addition to this, the WDOG_SYNCBUSY value should be zero. 12.3.2 Debug Functionality The watchdog timer can either keep running or be frozen when the device is halted by a debugger. This configuration is done through the DEBUGRUN bit in WDOG_CTRL. When code execution is resumed, the watchdog will continue counting where it left off. 12.3.3 Energy Mode Handling The watchdog timer can be configured to either keep on running or freeze when entering EM2 or EM3. The configuration is done individually for each energy mode in the EM2RUN and EM3RUN bits in WDOG_CTRL. When the watchdog has been frozen and is re-entering an energy mode where it is running, the watchdog timer will continue counting where it left off. For the watchdog there is no difference between EM0 and EM1. The watchdog does not run in EM4, and if EM4BLOCK in WDOG_CTRL is set, the CPU is prevented from entering EM4. Note If the WDOG is clocked by the LFXO or LFRCO, writing the SWOSCBLOCK bit will effectively prevent the CPU from entering EM3. When running from the ULFRCO, writing the SWOSCBLOCK bit will prevent the CPU from entering EM4. 12.3.4 Register access Since this module is a Low Energy Peripheral, and runs off a clock which is asynchronous to the HFCORECLK, special considerations must be taken when accessing registers. Please refer to Section 5.3 (p. 19) for a description on how to perform register accesses to Low Energy Peripherals. note that clearing the EN bit in WDOG_CTRL will reset the WDOG module, which will halt any ongoing register synchronization. Note Never write to the WDOG registers when it is disabled, except to enable it by setting WDOG_CTRL_EN or when changing the clock source using WDOG_CTRL_CLKSEL. Make sure that the enable is registered (i.e. WDOG_SYNCBUSY_CTRL goes low), before writing other registers. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 124 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 12.4 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

Why? Events and signals from one peripheral can be used as input signals or triggers by other peripherals and ensure timing-critical operation and reduced software overhead. Time r P RS Ch How? ADC Without CPU intervention the peripherals can send reflex signals (both pulses and level) to each other in single- or chained steps. The peripherals can be set up to perform actions based on the incoming reflex signals. This results in improved system performance and reduced energy consumption. P RS Ch DMA 13.1 Introduction The Peripheral Reflex System (PRS) system is a network which allows the different peripheral modules to communicate directly with each other without involving the CPU. Peripheral modules which send out reflex signals are called producers. The PRS routes these reflex signals to consumer peripherals which apply actions depending on the reflex signals received. The format for the reflex signals is not given, but edge triggers and other functionality can be applied by the PRS. 13.2 Features * 8 configurable interconnect channels * Each channel can be connected to any producing peripheral * Consumers can choose which channel to listen to * Selectable edge detector (rising, falling and both edges) * Software controlled channel output * Configurable level * Triggered pulses 13.3 Functional Description An overview of the PRS module is shown in Figure 13.1 (p. 129) . The PRS contains 8 interconnect channels, and each of these can select between all the output reflex signals offered by the producers. The consumers can then choose which PRS channel to listen to and perform actions based on the reflex signals routed through that channel. The reflex signals can be both pulse signals and level signals. Synchronous PRS pulses are one HFPERCLK cycle long, and can either be sent out by a producer (e.g., ADC conversion complete) or be generated from the edge detector in the PRS channel. Level signals can have an arbitrary waveform (e.g., Timer PWM output). 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 128 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 13.3.1 Channel Functions Different functions can be applied to a reflex signal within the PRS. Each channel includes an edge detector to enable generation of pulse signals from level signals. It is also possible to generate output reflex signals by configuring the SWPULSE and SWLEVEL bits. SWLEVEL is a programmable level for each channel and holds the value it is programmed to. The SWPULSE will give out a one-cycle high pulse if it is written to 1, otherwise a 0 is asserted. The SWLEVEL and SWPULSE signals are then XOR'ed with the selected input from the producers to form the output signal sent to the consumers listening to the channel. Figure 13.1.

Each of these producers outputs one or more signals which can be selected by setting the SIGSEL field in PRS_CHx_CTRL. Setting the SOURCESEL bits to 0 (Off) leads to a constant 0 output from the input mux. An overview of the available producers is given in Table 13.1 (p. 129) . Table 13.1.

Set SIGSEL in PRS_CH5_CTRL to 0b001 to select the overflow signal (from TIMER0). Configure ADC0 with the desired conversion set-up. Set SINGLEPRSEN in ADC0_SINGLECTRL to 1 to enable single conversions to be started by a high PRS input signal. * Set SINGLEPRSSEL in ADC0_SINGLECTRL to 0x5 to select PRS channel 5 as input to start the single conversion. * Start TIMER0 with the desired TOP value, an overflow PRS signal is output automatically on overflow.

The devices appear as a part of the EFM32G's internal memory map and are therefore extremely simple to use. 4 Why? Even though the EFM32G is versatile, there might be a need for specific external devices such as extra RAM, FLASH, LCD. The EBI simplifies the access to such devices. EBI (MCU) P a ra lle l Inte rfa ce Exte rna l As ync. De vice How? Through memory mapping the devices appear as a part of the internal memory map. When the processor performs read or writes to the address range of the EBI, the EBI handles the data transfers to and from the external devices. The EBI may be interfaced by the DMA, thus enabling operation in EM1. 14.1 Introduction The External Bus Interface provides access to external parallel interface devices such as SRAM, FLASH, ADCs and LCDs. The interface is memory mapped into the address bus of the Cortex-M3. This enables seamless access from software without manually manipulating the IO settings each time a read or write is performed. The data and address lines are multiplexed in order to reduce the number of pins required to interface the external devices. The bus timing is adjustable to meet specifications of the external devices. The interface is limited to asynchronous devices. 14.2 Features * Programmable interface for various memory types * 4 memory bank regions * Individual chip select line (EBI_CSn) per memory bank * Accurate control of setup, strobe, hold and turn-around timing * Individual active high / active low setting of interface control signals * Slave read/write cycle extension * Multiplexed data and address lines for reduced pin count * Up to 24 address lines * Up to 16-bit data bus width * 8-bit true parallel operation 14.3 Functional Description An overview of the EBI module is shown in Figure 14.1 (p. 137) . The EBI has multiplexed and non-multiplexed addressing modes. Fastest operation is achieved when using a non-multiplexed addressing mode. The multiplexed addressing modes are somewhat slower 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 136 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers and require an external latch, but they use a significantly lower number of pins. The use of the 16 EBI_AD pin connections depends on the addressing mode. They are used for both address and data in the multiplexed modes. Also for the non-multiplexed 8-bit address mode both the address and data fit into these 16 EBI_AD pins. If more address bits or data bits are needed, external latches can be used to support up to 24-bit addresses or 16-bit data in the multiplexed addressing modes using only the 16 EBI_AD pins. When a read operation is requested by the Cortex-M3 or DMA via the EBI's AHB interface, the address is transferred onto the EBI_AD bus. After a specific number of cycles, the EBI_REn pin is activated and data is read from the EBI_AD bus. When a write operation is requested, the address is transferred onto the EBI_AD bus and subsequently the write data is transferred onto the EBI_AD bus as the EBI_WEn pin is activated. The detailed operation in the supported modes is presented in the following sections. Figure 14.1.

The address is put on the higher 8 bits of the EBI_AD lines while the data uses the lower 8 bits. This mode is set by programming the MODE field in the EBI_CTRL register to D8A8. Read and write signals in 8-bit mode are shown in Figure 14.2 (p. 137) and Figure 14.3 (p. 138) respectively. Figure 14.2.

The 16-bit address and 16-bit data bits are multiplexed on the EBI_AD lines. An illustration of such a setup is shown in Figure 14.4 (p. 138) . This mode is set by programming the MODE field in the EBI_CTRL register to D16A16ALE. Note In this mode the 16-bit address is organized in 2-byte chunks at memory addresses aligned to 2-byte offsets. Consequently, the LSB of the 16-bit address will always be 0. In order to double the address space, the 16-bit address is internally shifted one bit to the right so that the LSB of the address driven into the EBI_AD bus, i.e. the EBI_AD[0]-bit, corresponds to the second least significant bit of the address, i.e. ADDR[1]. At the external device, the LSB of the address must be tied either low or high in order to create a full address. Figure 14.4. EBI Address Latch Setup EBI_AD EBI (MCU) La tch ADDR Exte rna l As ync. De vice ALE DATA Control At the start of the transaction the address is output on the EBI_AD lines. The Latch is controlled by the ALE (Address Latch Enable) signal and stores the address.

Similar timing can be defined by the RDSTRB bitfield in the EBI_RDTIMING register and WRSTRB in the EBI_WRTIMING register. These parameters all have a minimum duration of 1 cycle, which is set by HW in case the bitfield is programmed to 0. The setup and hold timing parameters are ADDRHOLD in the EBI_ADDRTIMING register, RDHOLD and RDSETUP in the EBI_RDTIMING register and WRHOLD and WR SETUP in the EBI_WRTIMING register. Writing a value m to one of these bitfields results in a duration of the corresponding state of m cycles. If these parameters are set to 0, it effectively means that the state is skipped. 14.3.5 Data Access Width It is important that the setting of the data width of the external device is respected. If the width of a request does not match the data width specified in the MODE field of the EBI_CTRL register, a bus fault is generated. 14.3.6 Bank Access The EBI is split in 4 different address regions, each connected to an individual EBI_CSn line. When accessing one of the memory regions, the corresponding CSn line is asserted. This way up to 4 separate devices can share the EBI lines and be identified by the EBI_CSn line. Each bank can individually be enabled or disabled in the EBI_CTRL register. The bank separation is 64 MB.

Some external devices are able to indicate that they are not finished with either write or read operation by asserting the WAIT / ARDY line. This input signal is used to extend the REn/WEn cycles for slow devices. The interpretation of the polarity of this signal can be configured with the ARDYPOL bit in EBI_POLARITY. E.g. if the ARDYPOL is set to ACTIVELOW, then the REn/WEn cycle is extended while the ARDY line is kept low. The ARDY functionality is enabled by setting the ARDYEN bit in the EBI_CTRL register. It is also possible to enable a timeout check, which generates a bus error if the ARDY is not deasserted within the timeout period. This prevents a system lock up condition in the case that the external device does not deassert ARDY. The timeout functionality is disabled by setting ARDYTODIS in the EBI_CTRL register. 14.3.8 Control Signal Polarity It is possible to individually configure the control signals to be active high/low by setting or clearing the appropriate bits in the EBI_POLARITY register. 14.3.9 Pin Configuration In order to give the EBI access to the external pins of the EFM32G, the GPIO must be configured accordingly. The lines must be set to Push-Pull, which is described in detail in the GPIO section. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 142 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers All the EBI pins are enabled in the EBI_ROUTE register.

It is capable of acting as both master and slave, and supports multi-master buses. Standard-mode, fast-mode and fast-mode plus speeds are supported, allowing transmission rates all the way from 10 kbit/s up to 1 Mbit/s. Slave arbitration and timeouts are also provided to allow implementation of an SMBus compliant system. The 2 interface provided to software by the I C module allows both fine-grained control of the transmission process and close to automatic transfers. Automatic recognition of slave addresses is provided in all energy modes (except EM4). 15.2 Features * True multi-master capability * Support for different bus speeds * Standard-mode (Sm) bit rate up to 100 kbit/s * Fast-mode (Fm) bit rate up to 400 kbit/s * Fast-mode Plus (Fm+) bit rate up to 1 Mbit/s * Arbitration for both master and slave (allows SMBus ARP) * Clock synchronization and clock stretching * Hardware address recognition * 7-bit masked address * General call address * Active in all energy modes (except EM4) * 10-bit address support * Error handling * Clock low timeout * Clock high timeout * Arbitration lost * Bus error detection * Double buffered data * Full DMA support 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 148 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 15.3 Functional Description 2 An overview of the I C module is shown in Figure 15.1 (p. 149) . 2 Figure 15.1.

As a true multi-master bus it includes collision detection and arbitration to resolve situations where multiple masters transmit data at the same time without data loss. 2 Figure 15.2.

Both the bus lines are open-drain. The maximum value of the pull-up resistor can be calculated as a function of the maximal rise-time tr for the given bus speed, and the estimated bus capacitance Cb as shown in Equation 15.1 (p. 149) . 2 I C Pull-up Resistor Equation Rp(max) = (tr/0.8473) x Cb.

All transactions on the bus begin with a START condition (S) and end with a STOP condition (P). As shown in Figure 15.3 (p. 150) , a START condition is generated by pulling the SDA line low while SCL is high, and a STOP condition is generated by pulling the SDA line high while SCL is high. 2 Figure 15.3. I C START and STOP Conditions S DA S CL S P S TART condition S TOP condition The START and STOP conditions are easily identifiable bus events as they are the only conditions on the bus where a transition is allowed on SDA while SCL is high. During the actual data transmission, SDA is only allowed to change while SCL is low, and must be stable while SCL is high. One bit is transferred 2 per clock pulse on the I C-bus as shown in Figure 15.2 (p. 149) . 2 2 Figure 15.4. I C Bit Transfer on I C-Bus S DA S CL Da ta cha nge a llowe d Da ta s ta ble Da ta cha nge a llowe d 15.3.1.2 Bus Transfer When a master wants to initiate a transfer on the bus, it waits until the bus is idle and transmits a START condition on the bus. The master then transmits the address of the slave it wishes to interact with and a single R/W bit telling whether it wishes to read from the slave (R/W bit set to 1) or write to the slave (R/W bit set to 0). After the 7-bit address and the R/W bit, the master releases the bus, allowing the slave to acknowledge the request. During the next bit-period, the slave pulls SDA low (ACK) if it acknowledges the request, or keeps it high if it does not acknowledge it (NACK). Following the address acknowledge, either the slave or master transmits data, depending on the value of the R/W bit. After every 8 bits (one byte) transmitted on the SDA line, the transmitter releases the line to allow the receiver to transmit an ACK or a NACK. Both the data and the address are transmitted with the most significant bit first. The number of bytes in a bus transfer is unrestricted. The master ends the transmission after a (N)ACK by sending a STOP condition on the bus. After a STOP condition, any master wishing to initiate a transfer 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 150 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers on the bus can try to gain control of it. If the current master wishes to make another transfer immediately after the current, it can start a new transfer directly by transmitting a repeated START condition (Sr) instead of a STOP followed by a START. 2 Examples of I C transfers are shown in Figure 15.5 (p. 151) , Figure 15.6 (p. 151), and Figure 15.7 (p. 151) . The identifiers used are: * * * * * * * * ADDR - Address DATA - Data S - Start bit Sr - Repeated start bit P - Stop bit W/R - Read(1)/Write(0) A - ACK N - NACK 2 Figure 15.5.

I C Single Byte Write, then Repeated Start and Single Byte Read S ADDR W A DATA A Sr ADDR R A DATA N P 15.3.1.3 Addresses 2 I C supports both 7-bit and 10-bit addresses. When using 7-bit addresses, the first byte transmitted after the START-condition contains the address of the slave that the master wants to contact. In the 7-bit address space, several addresses are reserved. These addresses are summarized in Table 15.1 (p. 151) , and include a General Call address which can be used to broadcast a message to all slaves 2 on the I C-bus. 2 2 Table 15.1. I C Reserved I C Addresses 2 I C Address R/W Description 0000-000 0 General Call address 0000-000 1 START byte 0000-001 X Reserved for the C-Bus format 0000-010 X Reserved for a different bus format 0000-011 X Reserved for future purposes 0000-1XX X Reserved for future purposes 1111-1XX X Reserved for future purposes 1111-0XX X 10 Bit slave addressing mode 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 151 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 15.3.1.4 10-bit Addressing To address a slave using a 10-bit address, two bytes are required to specify the address instead of one. The seven first bits of the first byte must then be 1111 0XX, where XX are the two most significant bits of the 10-bit address. As with 7-bit addresses, the eight bit of the first byte determines whether the master wishes to read from or write to the slave. The second byte contains the eight least significant bits of the slave address. When a slave receives a 10-bit address, it must acknowledge both the address bytes if they match the address of the slave. When performing a master transmitter operation, the master transmits the two address bytes and then the remaining data, as shown in Figure 15.8 (p. 152) . 2 Figure 15.8. I C Master Transmitter/Slave Receiver with 10-bit Address S ADDR (1s t 7 bits ) W A Addr (2nd byte ) A DATA A P When performing a master receiver operation however, the master first transmits the two address bytes in a master transmitter operation, then sends a repeated START followed by the first address byte and then receives data from the addressed slave. The slave addressed by the 10-bit address in the first two address bytes must remember that it was addressed, and respond with data if the address transmitted after the repeated start matches its own address. An example of this (with one byte transmitted) is shown in Figure 15.9 (p. 152) . 2 Figure 15.9. I C Master Receiver/Slave Transmitter with 10-bit Address S ADDR (1s t 7 bits ) W A Addr (2nd byte ) A Sr ADDR (1s t 7 bits ) R A DATA N P 15.3.1.5 Arbitration, Clock Synchronization, Clock Stretching Arbitration and clock synchronization are features aimed at allowing multi-master buses. Arbitration occurs when two devices try to drive the bus at the same time. If one device drives it low, while the other drives it high, the one attempting to drive it high will not be able to do so due to the open-drain bus configuration. Both devices sample the bus, and the one that was unable to drive the bus in the desired direction detects the collision and backs off, letting the other device continue communication on the bus undisturbed. Clock synchronization is a means of synchronizing the clock outputs from several masters driving the bus at once, and is a requirement for effective arbitration. Slaves on the bus are allowed to force the clock output on the bus low in order to pause the communication on the bus and give themselves time to process data or perform any real-time tasks they might have. This is called clock stretching. 2 Arbitration is supported by the I C module for both masters and slaves. Clock synchronization and clock stretching is also supported. 15.3.2 Enable and Reset 2 The I C is enabled by setting the EN bit in the I2Cn_CTRL register. Whenever this bit is cleared, the 2 internal state of the I C is reset, terminating any ongoing transfers. Note 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 152 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 2 When enabling the I C, the ABORT command or the Bus Idle Timeout feature must be applied prior to use even if the BUSY flag is not set. 15.3.3 Safely Disabling and Changing Slave Configuration 2 The I C slave is partially asynchronous, and some precautions are necessary to always ensure a safe slave disable or slave configuration change. These measures should be taken, if (while the slave is enabled) the user cannot guarantee that an address match will not occur at the exact time of slave disable or slave configuration change. Worst case consequences for an address match while disabling slave or changing configuration is that the slave may end up in an undefined state. To reset the slave back to a known state, the EN bit in I2Cn_CTRL must be reset. This should be done regardless of whether the slave is going to be re-enabled or not. 15.3.4 Clock Generation 2 The SCL signal generated by the I C master determines the maximum transmission rate on the bus. The clock is generated as a division of the peripheral clock, and is given by Equation 15.2 (p. 153) : 2 I C Maximum Transmission Rate fSCL = 1/(Tlow + Thigh), (15.2) where Tlow and Thigh is the low and high periods of the clock signal respectively, given below. When the clock is not streched, the low and high periods of the clock signal are: 2 I C High and Low Cycles Equations Thigh = (Nhigh x (CLKDIV + 1))/fHFPERCLK, Tlow = (Nlow x (CLKDIV + 1))/fHFPERCLK. (15.3) Equation 15.3 (p. 153) and Equation 15.2 (p. 153) does not apply for low clock division factors (0, 1 and 2) because of synchronization. For these clock division factors, the formulas for computing high and low periods of the clock signal are given in Table 15.2 (p. 153) . 2 Table 15.2. I C High and Low Periods for Low CLKDIV CLKDIV Standard (4:4) Asymmetric (6:3) Fast (11:6) Tlow Thigh Tlow Thigh Tlow Thigh 0 7/fHFPERCLK 7/fHFPERCLK 9/fHFPERCLK 6/fHFPERCLK 14/fHFPERCLK 9/fHFPERCLK 1 10/fHFPERCLK 10/fHFPERCLK 14/fHFPERCLK 8/fHFPERCLK 24/fHFPERCLK 14/fHFPERCLK 2 15/fHFPERCLK 15/fHFPERCLK 21/fHFPERCLK 12/fHFPERCLK 36/fHFPERCLK 21/fHFPERCLK The values of Nlow and Nhigh and thus the ratio between the high and low parts of the clock signal is controlled by CLHR in the I2Cn_CTRL register. The available modes are summarized in Table 15.3 (p. 2 154) along with the highest I C-bus frequencies in the given modes that can be achieved without 2 violating the timing specifications of the I C-bus. The maximum data hold time is dependent on the DIV and is given by: Maximum Data Hold Time tHD,DAT-max = (4+DIV)/fHFPERCLK. (15.4) Note DIV must be set to 1 or higher during slave mode operation. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 153 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 2 Table 15.3.

When 2 arbitration is enabled, the value on SDA is sensed every time the I C module attempts to change its 2 value. If the sensed value is different than the value the I C module tried to output, it is interpreted as a 2 simultaneous transmission by another device, and that the I C module has lost arbitration. Whenever arbitration is lost, the ARBLOST interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set, any lines held are released, 2 2 and the I C device goes idle. If an I C master loses arbitration during the transmission of an address, another master may be trying to address it. The master therefore receives the rest of the address, and if the address matches the slave address of the master, the master goes into either slave transmitter or slave receiver mode. Note Arbitration can be lost both when operating as a master and when operating as a slave. 15.3.6 Buffers 15.3.6.1 Transmit Buffer and Shift Register 2 The I C transmitter is double buffered through the transmit buffer and transmit shift register as shown in Figure 15.1 (p. 149) . A byte is loaded into the transmit buffer by writing to I2Cn_TXDATA. When the 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 154 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers transmit shift register is empty and ready for new data, the byte from the transmit buffer is then loaded into the shift register. The byte is then kept in the shift register until it is transmitted. When a byte has been transmitted, a new byte is loaded into the shift register (if available in the transmit buffer). If the transmit buffer is empty, then the shift register also remains empty. The TXC flag in I2Cn_STATUS and the TXC interrupt flags in I2Cn_IF are then set, signaling that the transmit shift register is out of data. TXC is cleared when new data becomes available, but the TXC interrupt flag must be cleared by software. Whenever a byte is loaded from the transmit buffer to the transmit shift register, the TXBL flag in I2Cn_STATUS and the TXBL interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF are set. This indicates that there is room in the buffer for more data. TXBL is cleared automatically when data is written to the buffer. If a write is attempted to the transmit buffer while it is not empty, the TXOF interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set, indicating the overflow. The data already in the buffer remains preserved, and no new data is written. The transmit buffer and the transmit shift register can be cleared by setting command bit CLEARTX in 2 I2Cn_CMD. This will prevent the I C module from transmitting the data in the buffer and the shift register, and will make them available for new data. Any byte currently being transmitted will not be aborted. Transmission of this byte will be completed. 15.3.6.2 Receive Buffer and Shift Register 2 Like the transmitter, the I C receiver is double buffered. The receiver uses the receive buffer and receive shift register as shown in Figure 15.1 (p. 149) . When a byte has been fully received by the receive shift register, it is loaded into the receive buffer if there is room for it. Otherwise, the byte waits in the shift register until space becomes available in the buffer. When a byte becomes available in the receive buffer, the RXDATAV in I2Cn_STATUS and RXDATAV interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF are set. The data can now be fetched from the buffer using I2Cn_RXDATA. Reading from this register will pull a byte out of the buffer, making room for a new byte and clearing RXDATAV in I2Cn_STATUS and RXDATAV in I2Cn_IF in the process. If a read from the receive buffer is attempted through I2Cn_RXDATA while the buffer is empty, the RXUF interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set, and the data read from the buffer is undefined. I2Cn_RXDATAP can be used to read data from the receive buffer without removing it from the buffer. The RXUF interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF will never be set as a result of reading from I2Cn_RXDATAP, but the data read through I2Cn_RXDATAP when the receive buffer is empty is still undefined. Once a transaction is complete (STOP sent or received), the receive buffer needs to be flushed (all received data must be picked up) before starting a new transaction. 15.3.7 Master Operation A bus transaction is initiated by transmitting a START condition (S) on the bus. This is done by setting 2 the START bit in I2Cn_CMD. The command schedules a START condition, and makes the I C module generate a start condition whenever the bus becomes free. 2 The I C-bus is considered busy whenever another device on the bus transmits a START condition. Until a STOP condition is detected, the bus is owned by the master issuing the START condition. The bus is considered free when a STOP condition is transmitted on the bus. After a STOP is detected, all masters that have data to transmit send a START condition and begin transmitting data. Arbitration ensures that collisions are avoided. When the START condition has been transmitted, the master must transmit a slave address (ADDR) with an R/W bit on the bus. If this address is available in the transmit buffer, the master transmits it 2 immediately, but if the buffer is empty, the master holds the I C-bus while waiting for software to write the address to the transmit buffer. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 155 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers After the address has been transmitted, a sequence of bytes can be read from or written to the slave, depending on the value of the R/W bit (bit 0 in the address byte). If the bit was cleared, the master has entered a master transmitter role, where it now transmits data to the slave. If the bit was set, it has entered a master receiver role, where it now should receive data from the slave. In either case, an unlimited number of bytes can be transferred in one direction during the transmission. At the end of the transmission, the master either transmits a repeated START condition (Sr) if it wishes to continue with another transfer, or transmits a STOP condition (P) if it wishes to release the bus. 15.3.7.1 Master State Machine The master state machine is shown in Figure 15.10 (p. 156) . A master operation starts in the far left of the state machine, and follows the solid lines through the state machine, ending the operation or continuing with a new operation when arriving at the right side of the state machine. Branches in the path through the state machine are the results of bus events and choices made by 2 software, either directly or indirectly. The dotted lines show where I C-specific interrupt flags are set along the path and the full-drawn circles show places where interaction may be required by software to let the transmission proceed. 2 Figure 15.10.

The action(s) required by software 2 depends on the current state the of the I C module. This state can be read from the I2Cn_STATE register. 2 As an example, Table 15.5 (p. 159) shows the different states the I C goes through when operating as a Master Transmitter, i.e. a master that transmits data to a slave. As seen in the table, when a start condition has been transmitted, a requirement is that there is an address and an R/W bit in the transmit buffer. If the transmit buffer is empty, then the BUSHOLD interrupt flag is set, and the bus is held until data becomes available in the buffer. While waiting for the address, I2Cn_STATE has a value 0x57, 2 which can be used to identify exactly what the I C module is waiting for. Note The bus would never stop at state 0x57 if the address was available in the transmit buffer. 2 The different interactions used by the I C module are listed in Table 15.4 (p. 157) in prioritized order. If a set of different courses of action are possible from a given state, the course of action using the highest priority interactions, that first has everything it is waiting for is the one that is taken. 2 Table 15.4. I C Interactions in Prioritized Order Interaction Priority Software action Automatically continues if STOP* 1 Set the STOP command bit in I2Cn_CMD PSTOP is set (STOP pending) in I2Cn_STATUS ABORT 2 Set the ABORT command bit Never, the transmission is in I2Cn_CMD aborted CONT* 3 Set the CONT command bit in I2Cn_CMD PCONT is set in I2Cn_STATUS (CONT pending) NACK* 4 Set the NACK command bit in I2Cn_CMD PNACK is set in I2Cn_STATUS (NACK pending) ACK* 5 Set the ACK command bit in I2Cn_CMD AUTOACK is set in I2Cn_CTRL or PACK is set in I2Cn_STATUS (ACK pending) ADDR+W -> TXDATA 6 Write an address to the transmit buffer with the R/W bit set Address is available in transmit buffer with R/W bit set ADDR+R -> TXDATA 7 Write an address to the transmit buffer with the R/W bit cleared Address is available in transmit buffer with R/W bit cleared START* 8 Set the START command bit in I2Cn_CMD PSTART is set in I2Cn_STATUS (START pending) TXDATA 9 Write data to the transmit buffer Data is available in transmit buffer RXDATA 10 Read data from receive buffer Space is available in receive buffer None 11 No interaction is required The commands marked with a * in Table 15.4 (p. 157) can be issued before an interaction is required. 2 When such a command is issued before it can be used/consumed by the I C module, the command is 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 157 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers set in a pending state, which can be read from the STATUS register. A pending START command can for instance be identified by PSTART having a high value. 2 Whenever the I C module requires an interaction, it checks the pending commands. If one or a combination of these can fulfill an interaction, they are consumed by the module and the transmission continues without setting the BUSHOLD interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF to get an interaction from software. The pending status of a command goes low when it is consumed. When several interactions are possible from a set of pending commands, the interaction with the highest priority, i.e. the interaction closest to the top of Table 15.4 (p. 157) is applied to the bus. Pending commands can be cleared by setting the CLEARPC command bit in I2Cn_CMD. 15.3.7.2.1 Automatic ACK Interaction When receiving addresses and data, an ACK command in I2Cn_CMD is normally required after each received byte. When AUTOACK is set in I2Cn_CTRL, an ACK is always pending, and the ACK-pending bit PACK in I2Cn_STATUS is thus always set, even after an ACK has been consumed. This can be used to reduce the amount of software interaction required during a transfer. 15.3.7.3 Reset State 2 2 After a reset, the state of the I C-bus is unknown. To avoid interrupting transfers on the I C-bus after 2 2 a reset of the I C module or the entire MCU, the I C-bus is assumed to be busy when coming out of a reset, and the BUSY flag in I2Cn_STATUS is thus set. To be able to carry through master operations 2 on the I C-bus, the bus must be idle. The bus goes idle when a STOP condition is detected on the bus, but on buses with little activity, the 2 time before the I C module detects that the bus is idle can be significant. There are two ways of assuring 2 that the I C module gets out of the busy state. 2 * Use the ABORT command in I2Cn_CMD. When the ABORT command is issued, the I C module is 2 instructed that the bus is idle. The I C module can then initiate master operations. * Use the Bus Idle Timeout. When SCL has been high for a long period of time, it is very likely that the bus is idle. Set BITO in I2Cn_CTRL to an appropriate timeout period and set GIBITO in I2Cn_CTRL. If activity has not been detected on the bus within the timeout period, the bus is then automatically assumed idle, and master operations can be initiated. Note If operating in slave mode, the above approach is not necessary. 15.3.7.4 Master Transmitter To transmit data to a slave, the master must operate as a master transmitter. Table 15.5 (p. 159) 2 shows the states the I C module goes through while acting as a master transmitter. Every state where an interaction is required has the possible interactions listed, along with the result of the interactions. The table also shows which interrupt flags are set in the different states. The interrupt flags enclosed in parenthesis may be set. If the BUSHOLD interrupt in I2Cn_IF is set, the module is waiting for an interaction, and the bus is frozen. The value of I2Cn_STATE will be equal to the values given in the table when the BUSHOLD interrupt flag is set, and can be used to determine which interaction is required to make the transmission continue. 2 The interrupt flag START in I2Cn_IF is set when the I C module transmits the START. A master operation is started by issuing a START command by setting START in I2Cn_CMD. ADDR 2 +W, i.e. the address of the slave to address + the R/W bit is then required by the I C module. If this is not available in the transmit buffer, then the bus is held and the BUSHOLD interrupt flag is set. The 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 158 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 2 value of I2Cn_STATE will then be 0x57. As seen in the table, the I C module also stops in this state if the address is not available after a repeated start condition. To continue, write a byte to I2Cn_TXDATA with the address of the slave in the 7 most significant bits and the least significant bit cleared (ADDR+W). This address will then be transmitted, and the slave will reply with an ACK or a NACK. If no slave replies to the address, the response will also be NACK. If the address was acknowledged, the master now has four choices. It can send a data byte by placing it in I2Cn_TXDATA (the master should check the TXBL interrupt flag before writing to I2Cn_TXDATA), this byte is then transmitted. The master can also stop the transmission by sending a STOP, it can send a repeated start by sending START, or it can send a STOP and then a START as soon as possible. If a NACK was received, the master has to issue a CONT command in addition to providing data in order 2 to continue transmission. This is not standard I C, but is provided for flexibility. The rest of the options are similar to when an ACK was received. If a new byte was transmitted, an ACK or NACK is received after the transmission of the byte, and the master has the same options as for when the address was sent. The master may lose arbitration at any time during transmission. In this case, the ARBLOST interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set. If the arbitration was lost during the transfer of an address, and SLAVE in I2Cn_CTRL is set, the master then checks which address was transmitted. If it was the address of the master, then the master goes to slave mode. After a master has transmitted a START and won any arbitration, it owns the bus until it transmits a STOP. After a STOP, the bus is released, and arbitration decides which bus master gains the bus next. The MSTOP interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set when a STOP condition is transmitted by the master. 2 Table 15.5.

This is done by transmitting ADDR+R as the address byte instead of ADDR+W, which is transmitted to become a master transmitter. The address byte loaded into the data register thus has to contain the 7bit slave address in the 7 most significant bits of the byte, and have the least significant bit set. When the address has been transmitted, the master receives an ACK or a NACK. If an ACK is received, the ACK interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set, and if space is available in the receive shift register, reception of a byte from the slave begins. If the receive buffer and shift register is full however, the bus is held until data is read from the receive buffer or another interaction is made. Note that the STOP and START interactions have a higher priority than the data-available interaction, so if a STOP or START command is pending, the highest priority interaction will be performed, and data will not be received from the slave. If a NACK was received, the CONT command in I2Cn_CMD has to be issued in order to continue receiving data, even if there is space available in the receive buffer and/or shift register. After a data byte has been received the master must ACK or NACK the received byte. If an ACK is pending or AUTOACK in I2Cn_CTRL is set, an ACK is sent automatically and reception continues if space is available in the receive buffer. If a NACK is sent, the CONT command must be used in order to continue transmission. If an ACK or NACK is issued along with a START or STOP or both, then the ACK/NACK is transmitted and the reception is ended. If START in I2Cn_CMD is set alone, a repeated start condition is transmitted after the ACK/NACK. If STOP in I2Cn_CMD is set, a stop condition is sent regardless of whether START is set. If START is set in this case, it is set as pending. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 160 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers As when operating as a master transmitter, arbitration can be lost as a master receiver. When this happens the ARBLOST interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set, and the master has a possibility of being selected as a slave given the correct conditions. 2 Table 15.6.

The register consists of the STATE bit-field, which shows which state the I C module is at in any ongoing transmission, and a set of single-bits, which reveal the transmission mode, whether 2 the bus is busy or idle, and whether the bus is held by this I C module waiting for a software response. The possible values of the STATE field are summarized in Table 15.7 (p. 162) . When this field is 2 cleared, the I C module is not a part of any ongoing transmission. The remaining status bits in the I2Cn_STATE register are listed in Table 15.8 (p. 162) . 2 Table 15.7. I C STATE Values Mode Value Description IDLE 0 No transmission is being performed by this module. WAIT 1 Waiting for idle. Will send a start condition as soon as the bus is idle. START 2 Start being transmitted ADDR 3 Address being transmitted or has been received ADDRACK 4 Address ACK/NACK being transmitted or received DATA 5 Data being transmitted or received DATAACK 6 Data ACK/NACK being transmitted or received 2 Table 15.8. I C Transmission Status Bit Description BUSY Set whenever there is activity on the bus. Whether or not this module is responsible for the activity cannot be determined by this byte. MASTER Set when operating as a master. Cleared at all other times. TRANSMITTER Set when operating as a transmitter; either a master transmitter or a slave transmitter. Cleared at all other times BUSHOLD Set when the bus is held by this I C module because an action is required by software. NACK Only valid when bus is held and STATE is ADDRACK or DATAACK. In that case it is set if a NACK was received. In all other cases, the bit is cleared. 2 Note 2 I2Cn_STATE reflects the internal state of the I C module, and therefore only held constant as long as the bus is held, i.e. as long as BUSHOLD in I2Cn_STATUS is set. 15.3.9 Slave Operation 2 The I C module operates in master mode by default. To enable slave operation, i.e. to allow the device to 2 be addressed as an I C slave, the SLAVE bit in I2Cn_CTRL must be set. In this case the slave operates in a mixed mode, both capable of starting transmissions as a master, and being addressed as a slave. When operating in the slave mode, HFPERCLK frequency must be higher than 4.2 MHz for Standardmode, 11 MHz for Fast-mode, and 24.4 MHz for Fast-mode Plus. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 162 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 15.3.9.1 Slave State Machine 2 The slave state machine is shown in Figure 15.11 (p. 163) .

Address recognition is supported in all energy modes (except EM4). 2 The slave address, i.e. the address which the I C module should be addressed with, is defined in the I2Cn_SADDR register. In addition to the address, a mask must be specified, telling the address comparator which bits of an incoming address to compare with the address defined in I2Cn_SADDR. The mask is defined in I2Cn_SADDRMASK, and for every zero in the mask, the corresponding bit in the slave address is treated as a don't-care. An incoming address that fails address recognition is automatically replied to with a NACK. Since only the bits defined by the mask are checked, a mask with a value 0x00 will result in all addresses being accepted. A mask with a value 0x7F will only match the exact address defined in I2Cn_SADDR, while a mask 0x70 will match all addresses where the three most significant bits in I2Cn_SADDR and the incoming address are equal. If GCAMEN in I2Cn_CTRL is set, the general call address is always accepted regardless of the result of the address recognition. The start-byte, i.e. the general call address with the R/W bit set is ignored unless it is included in the defined slave address. When an address is accepted by the address comparator, the decision of whether to ACK or NACK the address is passed to software. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 163 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 15.3.9.3 Slave Transmitter When SLAVE in I2Cn_CTRL is set, the RSTART interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF will be set when repeated START conditions are detected. After a START or repeated START condition, the bus master will transmit an address along with an R/W bit. If there is no room in the receive shift register for the address, the bus will be held by the slave until room is available in the shift register. Transmission then continues and the address is loaded into the shift register. If this address does not pass address recognition, it is automatically NACK'ed by the slave, and the slave goes to an idle state. The address byte is in this case discarded, making the shift register ready for a new address. It is not loaded into the receive buffer. If the address was accepted and the R/W bit was set (R), indicating that the master wishes to read from the slave, the slave now goes into the slave transmitter mode. Software interaction is now required to decide whether the slave wants to acknowledge the request or not. The accepted address byte is loaded into the receive buffer like a regular data byte. If no valid interaction is pending, the bus is held until the slave responds with a command. The slave can reject the request with a single NACK command. The slave will in that case go to an idle state, and wait for the next start condition. To continue the transmission, the slave must make sure data is loaded into the transmit buffer and send an ACK. The loaded data will then be transmitted to the master, and an ACK or NACK will be received from the master. Data transmission can also continue after a NACK if a CONT command is issued along with the NACK. 2 This is not standard I C however. If the master responds with an ACK, it may expect another byte of data, and data should be made available in the transmit buffer. If data is not available, the bus is held until data is available. If the response is a NACK however, this is an indication of that the master has received enough bytes and wishes to end the transmission. The slave now automatically goes idle, unless CONT in I2Cn_CMD 2 is set and data is available for transmission. The latter is not standard I C. The master ends the transmission by sending a STOP or a repeated START. The SSTOP interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set when the master transmits a STOP condition. If the transmission is ended with a repeated START, then the SSTOP interrupt flag is not set. Note The SSTOP interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF will be set regardless of whether the slave is participating in the transmission or not, as long as SLAVE in I2Cn_CTRL is set and a STOP condition is detected If arbitration is lost at any time during transmission, the ARBLOST interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set, the bus is released and the slave goes idle. See Table 15.9 (p. 165) for more information. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 164 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 2 Table 15.9.

The slave then goes into slave receiver mode. To receive data from the master, the slave should respond to the address with an ACK and make sure space is available in the receive buffer. Transmission will then continue, and the slave will receive a byte from the master. If a NACK is sent without a CONT, the transmission is ended for the slave, and it goes idle. If the slave issues both the NACK and CONT commands and has space available in the receive buffer, it will be open for continuing reception from the master. When a byte has been received from the master, the slave must ACK or NACK the byte. The responses here are the same as for the reception of the address byte. The master ends the transmission by sending a STOP or a repeated START. The SSTOP interrupt flag is set when the master transmits a STOP condition. If the transmission is ended with a repeated START, then the SSTOP interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is not set. Note The SSTOP interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF will be set regardless of whether the slave is participating in the transmission or not, as long as SLAVE in I2Cn_CTRL is set and a STOP condition is detected If arbitration is lost at any time during transmission, the ARBLOST interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set, the bus is released and the slave goes idle. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 165 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers See Table 15.10 (p. 166) for more information. 2 Table 15.10.

When using DMA, software is thus relieved of moving data to and from memory after each transferred byte. 15.3.10.2 Automatic ACK When AUTOACK in I2Cn_CTRL is set, an ACK is sent automatically whenever an ACK interaction is possible and no higher priority interactions are pending. 15.3.10.3 Automatic STOP A STOP can be generated automatically on two conditions. These apply only to the master transmitter. 2 If AUTOSN in I2Cn_CTRL is set, the I C module ends a transmission by transmitting a STOP condition when operating as a master transmitter and a NACK is received. 2 If AUTOSE in I2Cn_CTRL is set, the I C module always ends a transmission when there is no more data in the transmit buffer. If data has been transmitted on the bus, the transmission is ended after the (N)ACK has been received by the slave. If a START is sent when no data is available in the transmit buffer and AUTOSE is set, then the STOP condition is sent immediately following the START. Software must thus make sure data is available in the transmit buffer before the START condition has been fully transmitted if data is to be transferred. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 166 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 15.3.11 Using 10-bit Addresses When using 10-bit addresses in slave mode, set the I2Cn_SADDR register to 1111 0XX where XX are the two most significant bits of the 10-bit address, and set I2Cn_SADDRMASK to 0xFF. Address matches will now be given on all 10-bit addresses where the two most significant bits are correct. When receiving an address match, the slave must acknowledge the address and receive the first data byte. This byte contains the second part of the 10-bit address. If it matches the address of the slave, the slave should ACK the byte to continue the transmission, and if it does not match, the slave should NACK it. When the master is operating as a master transmitter, the data bytes will follow after the second address byte. When the master is operating as a master receiver however, a repeated START condition is sent after the second address byte. The address sent after this repeated START is equal to the first of the address bytes transmitted previously, but now with the R/W byte set, and only the slave that found a match on the entire 10-bit address in the previous message should ACK this address. The repeated start should take the master into a master receiver mode, and after the single address byte sent this time around, the slave begins transmission to the master. 15.3.12 Error Handling 15.3.12.1 ABORT Command 2 Some bus errors may require software intervention to be resolved. The I C module provides an ABORT command, which can be set in I2Cn_CMD, to help resolve bus errors. 2 When the bus for some reason is locked up and the I C module is in the middle of a transmission it 2 cannot get out of, or for some other reason the I C wants to abort a transmission, the ABORT command can be used. 2 Setting the ABORT command will make the I C module discard any data currently being transmitted 2 or received, release the SDA and SCL lines and go to an idle mode. ABORT effectively makes the I C module forget about any ongoing transfers. 15.3.12.2 Bus Reset A bus reset can be performed by setting the START and STOP commands in I2Cn_CMD while the transmit buffer is empty. A START condition will then be transmitted, immediately followed by a STOP condition. A bus reset can also be performed by transmitting a START command with the transmit buffer empty and AUTOSE set. 2 15.3.12.3 I C-Bus Errors 2 An I C-bus error occurs when a START or STOP condition is misplaced, which happens when the value 2 2 on SDA changes while SCL is high during bit-transmission on the I C-bus. If the I C module is part of the current transmission when a bus error occurs, any data currently being transmitted or received is discarded, SDA and SCL are released, the BUSERR interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set to indicate the error, and the module automatically takes a course of action as defined in Table 15.11 (p. 167) . 2 Table 15.11. I C Bus Error Response In a master/slave operation Misplaced START Misplaced STOP Treated as START. Receive address. Go idle. Perform any pending actions. 15.3.12.4 Bus Lockup 2 A lockup occurs when a master or slave on the I C-bus has locked the SDA or SCL at a low value, preventing other devices from putting high values on the bus, and thus making communication on the bus impossible. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 167 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 2 Many slave-only devices operating on an I C-bus are not capable of driving SCL low, but in the rare case that SCL is stuck LOW, the advice is to apply a hardware reset signal to the slaves on the bus. If this does not work, cycle the power to the devices in order to make them release SCL. When SDA is stuck low and SCL is free, a master should send 9 clock pulses on SCL while tristating the SDA. This procedure is performed in the GPIO module after clearing the I2C_ROUTE register and disabling the I2C module. The device that held the bus low should release it sometime within those 9 clocks. If not, use the same approach as for when SCL is stuck, resetting and possibly cycling power to the slaves. Lockup of SDA can be detected by keeping count of the number of continuous arbitration losses during address transmission. If arbitration is also lost during the transmission of a general call address, i.e. during the transmission of the STOP condition, which should never happen during normal operation, this is a good indication of SDA lockup. Detection of SCL lockups can be done using the timeout functionality defined in Section 15.3.12.6 (p. 168) 15.3.12.5 Bus Idle Timeout When SCL has been high for a significant amount of time, this is a good indication of that the bus is idle. On an SMBus system, the bus is only allowed to be in this state for a maximum of 50 s before the bus is considered idle. The bus idle timeout BITO in I2Cn_CTRL can be used to detect situations where the bus goes idle in the middle of a transmission. The timeout can be configured in BITO, and when the bus has been idle for the given amount of time, the BITO interrupt flag in I2Cn_IF is set. The bus can also be set idle automatically on a bus idle timeout. This is enabled by setting GIBITO in I2Cn_CTRL. When the bus idle timer times out, it wraps around and continues counting as long as its condition is true. If the bus is not set idle using GIBITO or the ABORT command in I2Cn_CMD, this will result in periodic timeouts. Note This timeout will be generated even if SDA is held low. The bus idle timeout is active as long as the bus is busy, i.e. BUSY in I2Cn_STATUS is set. The timeout 2 can be used to get the I C module out of the busy-state it enters when reset, see Section 15.3.7.3 (p. 158) . 15.3.12.6 Clock Low Timeout The clock timeout, which can be configured in CLTO in I2Cn_CTRL, starts counting whenever SCL goes low, and times out if SCL does not go high within the configured timeout. A clock low timeout results in CLTOIF in I2Cn_IF being set, allowing software to take action. When the timer times out, it wraps around and continues counting as long as SCL is low. An SCL lockup will thus result in periodic clock low timeouts as long as SCL is low. 15.3.13 DMA Support 2 The I C module has full DMA support. The DMA controller can write to the transmit buffer using the I2Cn_TXDATA register, and it can read from the receive buffer using the RXDATA register. A request 2 for the DMA controller to read from the I C receive buffer can come from the following source: * Data available in the receive buffer A write request can come from one of the following sources: 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 168 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Transmit buffer and shift register empty. No data to send * Transmit buffer empty 15.3.14 Interrupts 2 2 The interrupts generated by the I C module are combined into one interrupt vector, I2C_INT. If I C interrupts are enabled, an interrupt will be made if one or more of the interrupt flags in I2Cn_IF and their corresponding bits in I2Cn_IEN are set. 15.3.15 Wake-up 2 The I C receive section can be active all the way down to energy mode EM3, and can wake up the CPU on address interrupt.

Why? DMA controlle r Serial communication is frequently used in embedded systems and the USART allows efficient communication with a wide range of external devices. RAM US ART RX/ MIS O IrDA S ma rtCa rds US ART SPI How? The USART has a wide selection of operating modes, frame formats and baud rates. The multi-processor mode allows the USART to remain idle when not addressed. Triple buffering and DMA support makes high datarates possible with minimal CPU intervention and it is possible to transmit and receive large frames while the MCU remains in EM1. TX/ MOS I CLK EFM32 CS 16.1 Introduction The Universal Synchronous Asynchronous serial Receiver and Transmitter (USART) is a very flexible serial I/O module.

In synchronous mode, a separate clock signal is transmitted with the data. This clock signal is generated by the bus master, and both the master and slave sample and transmit data according to this clock. Both master and slave modes are supported by the USART. The synchronous communication mode is compatible with the Serial Peripheral Interface Bus (SPI) standard. In asynchronous mode, no separate clock signal is transmitted with the data on the bus. The USART receiver thus has to determine where to sample the data on the bus from the actual data. To make this possible, additional synchronization bits are added to the data when operating in asynchronous mode, resulting in a slight overhead. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 183 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Asynchronous or synchronous mode can be selected by configuring SYNC in USARTn_CTRL. The options are listed with supported protocols in Table 16.1 (p. 184) . Full duplex and half duplex communication is supported in both asynchronous and synchronous mode. Table 16.1. USART Asynchronous vs. Synchronous Mode SYNC Communication Mode Supported Protocols 0 Asynchronous RS-232, RS-485 (w/external driver), IrDA, ISO 7816 1 Synchronous SPI, MicroWire, 3-wire Table 16.2 (p. 184) explains the functionality of the different USART pins when the USART operates in different modes. Pin functionality enclosed in square brackets is optional, and depends on additional configuration parameters. LOOPBK and MASTER are discussed in Section 16.3.2.5 (p. 192) and Section 16.3.3.3 (p. 200) respectively. Table 16.2.

A frame starts with one start-bit (S), where the line is driven low for one bit-period. This signals the start of a frame, and is used for synchronization. Following the start bit are 4 to 16 data bits and an optional parity bit. Finally, a number of stop-bits, where the line is driven high, end the frame. An example frame is shown in Figure 16.2 (p. 184) . Figure 16.2. USART Asynchronous Frame Format Fra me S top or idle S ta rt or idle S 0 1 2 3 4 [5] [6] [7] [8] [P ] S top The number of data bits in a frame is set by DATABITS in USARTn_FRAME, see Table 16.3 (p. 185) , and the number of stop-bits is set by STOPBITS in USARTn_FRAME, see Table 16.4 (p. 185) . Whether or not a parity bit should be included, and whether it should be even or odd is defined by PARITY, also in USARTn_FRAME. For communication to be possible, all parties of an asynchronous transfer must agree on the frame format being used. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 184 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Table 16.3.

USART Stop Bits STOP BITS [1:0] Number of Stop bits 00 0.5 01 1 (Default) 10 1.5 11 2 The order in which the data bits are transmitted and received is defined by MSBF in USARTn_CTRL. When MSBF is cleared, data in a frame is sent and received with the least significant bit first. When it is set, the most significant bit comes first. The frame format used by the transmitter can be inverted by setting TXINV in USARTn_CTRL, and the format expected by the receiver can be inverted by setting RXINV in USARTn_CTRL. These bits affect the entire frame, not only the data bits. An inverted frame has a low idle state, a high start-bit, inverted data and parity bits, and low stop-bits. 16.3.2.1.1 Parity bit Calculation and Handling When parity bits are enabled, hardware automatically calculates and inserts any parity bits into outgoing frames, and verifies the received parity bits in incoming frames. This is true for both asynchronous and synchronous modes, even though it is mostly used in asynchronous communication. The possible parity modes are defined in Table 16.5 (p. 186) . When even parity is chosen, a parity bit is inserted to make the number of high bits (data + parity) even. If odd parity is chosen, the parity bit makes the total number of high bits odd. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 185 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Table 16.5.

When operating in asynchronous mode, the baud rate (bit-rate) is given by Equation 16.1 (p. 186) USART Baud Rate br = fHFPERCLK/(oversample x (1 + USARTn_CLKDIV/256)) (16.1) where fHFPERCLK is the peripheral clock (HFPERCLKUSARTn) frequency and oversample is the oversampling rate as defined by OVS in USARTn_CTRL, see Table 16.6 (p. 186) . Table 16.6. USART Oversampling OVS [1:0] oversample 00 16 01 8 10 6 11 4 The USART has a fractional clock divider to allow the USART clock to be controlled more accurately than what is possible with a standard integral divider. The clock divider used in the USART is a 15-bit value, with a 13-bit integral part and a 2-bit fractional part. The fractional part is configured in the two LSBs of DIV in USART_CLKDIV. The lowest achievable baud rate at 32 MHz is about 244 bauds/sec. Fractional clock division is implemented by distributing the selected fraction over four baud periods. The fractional part of the divider tells how many of these periods should be extended by one peripheral clock cycle. Given a desired baud rate brdesired, the clock divider USARTn_CLKDIV can be calculated by using Equation 16.2 (p. 186) : USART Desired Baud Rate USARTn_CLKDIV = 256 x (fHFPERCLK/(oversample x brdesired) - 1) (16.2) Table 16.7 (p. 187) shows a set of desired baud rates and how accurately the USART is able to generate these baud rates when running at a 4 MHz peripheral clock, using 16x or 8x oversampling. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 186 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Table 16.7.

When the transmission shift register is empty and ready for new data, a frame from the transmit buffer is loaded into the shift register, and if the transmitter is enabled, transmission begins. When the frame has been transmitted, a new frame is loaded into the shift register if available, and transmission continues. If the transmit buffer is empty, the transmitter goes to an idle state, waiting for a new frame to become available. Transmission is enabled through the command register USARTn_CMD by setting TXEN, and disabled by setting TXDIS in the same command register. When the transmitter is disabled using TXDIS, any ongoing transmission is aborted, and any frame currently being transmitted is discarded. When disabled, the TX output goes to an idle state, which by default is a high value. Whether or not the transmitter is enabled at a given time can be read from TXENS in USARTn_STATUS. When the USART transmitter is enabled and there is no data in the transmit shift register or transmit buffer, the TXC flag in USARTn_STATUS and the TXC interrupt flag in USARTn_IF are set, signaling that the transmitter is idle. The TXC status flag is cleared when a new frame becomes available for transmission, but the TXC interrupt flag must be cleared by software. 16.3.2.3.1 Transmit Buffer Operation The transmit-buffer is a 2-level FIFO buffer. A frame can be loaded into the buffer by writing to USARTn_TXDATA, USARTn_TXDATAX, USARTn_TXDOUBLE or USARTn_TXDOUBLEX. Using USARTn_TXDATA allows 8 bits to be written to the buffer, while using USARTn_TXDOUBLE will write 2 frames of 8 bits to the buffer. If 9-bit frames are used, the 9th bit of the frames will in these cases be set to the value of BIT8DV in USARTn_CTRL. To set the 9th bit directly and/or use transmission control, USARTn_TXDATAX and USARTn_TXDOUBLEX must be used. USARTn_TXDATAX allows 9 data bits to be written, as well as a set of control bits regarding the transmission of the written frame. Every frame in the buffer is stored with 9 data bits and additional transmission control bits. USARTn_TXDOUBLEX allows two 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 187 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers frames, complete with control bits to be written at once. When data is written to the transmit buffer using USARTn_TXDATAX and USARTn_TXDOUBLEX, the 9th bit(s) written to these registers override the value in BIT8DV in USARTn_CTRL, and alone define the 9th bits that are transmitted if 9-bit frames are used. Figure 16.3 (p. 188) shows the basics of the transmit buffer when DATABITS in USARTn_FRAME is configured to less than 10 bits. Figure 16.3. USART Transmit Buffer Operation P e riphe ra l Bus TXDOUBLE, TXDOUBLEX TX buffe r e le me nt 1 Write CTRL TX buffe r e le me nt 0 Write CTRL TXDATA, TXDATAX S hift re gis te r Write CTRL When writing more frames to the transmit buffer than there is free space for, the TXOF interrupt flag in USARTn_IF will be set, indicating the overflow. The data already in the transmit buffer is preserved in this case, and no data is written. In addition to the interrupt flag TXC in USARTn_IF and status flag TXC in USARTn_STATUS which are set when the transmitter is idle, TXBL in USARTn_STATUS and the TXBL interrupt flag in USARTn_IF are used to indicate the level of the transmit buffer. TXBIL in USARTn_CTRL controls the level at which these bits are set. If TXBIL is cleared, they are set whenever the transmit buffer becomes empty, and if TXBIL is set, they are set whenever the transmit buffer goes from full to half-full or empty. Both the TXBL status flag and the TXBL interrupt flag are cleared automatically when their condition becomes false The transmit buffer, including the transmit shift register can be cleared by setting CLEARTX in USARTn_CMD. This will prevent the USART from transmitting the data in the buffer and shift register, and will make them available for new data. Any frame currently being transmitted will not be aborted. Transmission of this frame will be completed. 16.3.2.3.2 Frame Transmission Control The transmission control bits, which can be written using USARTn_TXDATAX and USARTn_TXDOUBLEX, affect the transmission of the written frame. The following options are available: * Generate break: By setting TXBREAK, the output will be held low during the stop-bit period to generate a framing error. A receiver that supports break detection detects this state, allowing it to be used e.g. for framing of larger data packets. The line is driven high before the next frame is transmitted so the next start condition can be identified correctly by the recipient. Continuous breaks lasting longer than a USART frame are thus not supported by the USART. GPIO can be used for this. * Disable transmitter after transmission: If TXDISAT is set, the transmitter is disabled after the frame has been fully transmitted. * Enable receiver after transmission: If RXENAT is set, the receiver is enabled after the frame has been fully transmitted. It is enabled in time to detect a start-bit directly after the last stop-bit has been transmitted. * Unblock receiver after transmission: If UBRXAT is set, the receiver is unblocked and RXBLOCK is cleared after the frame has been fully transmitted. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 188 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Tristate transmitter after transmission: If TXTRIAT is set, TXTRI is set after the frame has been fully transmitted, tristating the transmitter output. Tristating of the output can also be performed automatically by setting AUTOTRI. If AUTOTRI is set TXTRI is always read as 0. Note When in SmartCard mode with repeat enabled, none of the actions, except generate break, will be performed until the frame is transmitted without failure. Generation of a break in SmartCard mode with repeat enabled will cause the USART to detect a NACK on every frame. 16.3.2.4 Data Reception Data reception is enabled by setting RXEN in USARTn_CMD. When the receiver is enabled, it actively samples the input looking for a transition from high to low indicating the start baud of a new frame. When a start baud is found, reception of the new frame begins if the receive shift register is empty and ready for new data. When the frame has been received, it is pushed into the receive buffer, making the shift register ready for another frame of data, and the receiver starts looking for another start baud. If the receive buffer is full, the received frame remains in the shift register until more space in the receive buffer is available. If an incoming frame is detected while both the receive buffer and the receive shift register are full, the data in the shift register is overwritten, and the RXOF interrupt flag in USARTn_IF is set to indicate the buffer overflow. The receiver can be disabled by setting the command bit RXDIS in USARTn_CMD. Any frame currently being received when the receiver is disabled is discarded. Whether or not the receiver is enabled at a given time can be read out from RXENS in USARTn_STATUS. 16.3.2.4.1 Receive Buffer Operation When data becomes available in the receive buffer, the RXDATAV flag in USARTn_STATUS, and the RXDATAV interrupt flag in USARTn_IF are set, and when the buffer becomes full, RXFULL in USARTn_STATUS and the RXFULL interrupt flag in USARTn_IF are set. The status flags RXDATAV and RXFULL are automatically cleared by hardware when their condition is no longer true. This also goes for the RXDATAV interrupt flag, but the RXFULL interrupt flag must be cleared by software. When the RXFULL flag is set, notifying that the buffer is full, space is still available in the receive shift register for one more frame. Data can be read from the receive buffer in a number of ways. USARTn_RXDATA gives access to the 8 least significant bits of the received frame, and USARTn_RXDOUBLE makes it possible to read the 8 least significant bits of two frames at once, pulling two frames from the buffer. To get access to the 9th, most significant bit, USARTn_RXDATAX must be used. This register also contains status information regarding the frame. USARTn_RXDOUBLEX can be used to get two frames complete with the 9th bits and status bits. When a frame is read from the receive buffer using USARTn_RXDATA or USARTn_RXDATAX, the frame is pulled out of the buffer, making room for a new frame. USARTn_RXDOUBLE and USARTn_RXDOUBLEX pull two frames out of the buffer. If an attempt is done to read more frames from the buffer than what is available, the RXUF interrupt flag in USARTn_IF is set to signal the underflow, and the data read from the buffer is undefined. Frames can be read from the receive buffer without removing the data by using USARTn_RXDATAXP and USARTn_RXDOUBLEXP. USARTn_RXDATAXP gives access the first frame in the buffer with status bits, while USARTn_RXDOUBLEXP gives access to both frames with status bits. The data read from these registers when the receive buffer is empty is undefined. If the receive buffer contains one valid frame, the first frame in USARTn_RXDOUBLEXP will be valid. No underflow interrupt is generated by a read using these registers, i.e. RXUF in USARTn_IF is never set as a result of reading from USARTn_RXDATAXP or USARTn_RXDOUBLEXP. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 189 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers The basic operation of the receive buffer when DATABITS in USARTn_FRAME is configured to less than 10 bits is shown in Figure 16.4 (p. 190) . Figure 16.4. USART Receive Buffer Operation P e riphe ra l Bus RXDOUBLE RXDOUBLEX RXDOUBLEXP RX buffe r e le me nt 0 S ta tus RX buffe r e le me nt 1 S ta tus RXDATA, RXDATAX, RXDATAXP S hift re gis te r S ta tus The receive buffer, including the receive shift register can be cleared by setting CLEARRX in USARTn_CMD. Any frame currently being received will not be discarded. 16.3.2.4.2 Blocking Incoming Data When using hardware frame recognition, as detailed in Section 16.3.2.8 (p. 196) and Section 16.3.2.9 (p. 197) , it is necessary to be able to let the receiver sample incoming frames without passing the frames to software by loading them into the receive buffer. This is accomplished by blocking incoming data. Incoming data is blocked as long as RXBLOCK in USARTn_STATUS is set. When blocked, frames received by the receiver will not be loaded into the receive buffer, and software is not notified by the RXDATAV flag in USARTn_STATUS or the RXDATAV interrupt flag in USARTn_IF at their arrival. For data to be loaded into the receive buffer, RXBLOCK must be cleared in the instant a frame is fully received by the receiver. RXBLOCK is set by setting RXBLOCKEN in USARTn_CMD and disabled by setting RXBLOCKDIS also in USARTn_CMD. There is one exception where data is loaded into the receive buffer even when RXBLOCK is set. This is when an address frame is received when operating in multi-processor mode. See Section 16.3.2.8 (p. 196) for more information. Frames received containing framing or parity errors will not result in the FERR and PERR interrupt flags in USARTn_IF being set while RXBLOCK in USARTn_STATUS is set. Hardware recognition is not applied to these erroneous frames, and they are silently discarded. Note If a frame is received while RXBLOCK in USARTn_STATUS is cleared, but stays in the receive shift register because the receive buffer is full, the received frame will be loaded into the receive buffer when space becomes available even if RXBLOCK is set at that time. The overflow interrupt flag RXOF in USARTn_IF will be set if a frame in the receive shift register, waiting to be loaded into the receive buffer is overwritten by an incoming frame even though RXBLOCK in USARTn_STATUS is set. 16.3.2.4.3 Clock Recovery and Filtering The receiver samples the incoming signal at a rate 16, 8, 6 or 4 times higher than the given baud rate, depending on the oversampling mode given by OVS in USARTn_CTRL. Lower oversampling rates make higher baud rates possible, but give less room for errors. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 190 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers When a high-to-low transition is registered on the input while the receiver is idle, this is recognized as a start-bit, and the baud rate generator is synchronized with the incoming frame. For oversampling modes 16, 8 and 6, every bit in the incoming frame is sampled three times to gain a level of noise immunity. These samples are aimed at the middle of the bit-periods, as visualized in Figure 16.5 (p. 191) . With OVS=0 in USARTn_CTRL, the start and data bits are thus sampled at locations 8, 9 and 10 in the figure, locations 4, 5 and 6 for OVS=1 and locations 3, 4, and 5 for OVS=2. The value of a sampled bit is determined by majority vote. If two or more of the three bit-samples are high, the resulting bit value is high. If the majority is low, the resulting bit value is low. Majority vote is used for all oversampling modes except 4x oversampling. In this mode, a single sample is taken at position 3 as shown in Figure 16.5 (p. 191) . If the value of the start bit is found to be high, the reception of the frame is aborted, filtering out false start bits possibly generated by noise on the input. Figure 16.5. USART Sampling of Start and Data Bits S ta rt bit 0 0 OVS = 3 OVS = 2 OVS = 1 OVS = 0 Idle 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 2 3 4 2 5 6 7 3 2 4 3 2 8 Bit 0 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 1 5 4 3 6 7 5 8 6 4 1 1 1 2 3 4 2 5 6 7 3 2 4 3 2 8 9 10 11 12 13 5 4 3 6 7 5 4 If the baud rate of the transmitter and receiver differ, the location each bit is sampled will be shifted towards the previous or next bit in the frame. This is acceptable for small errors in the baud rate, but for larger errors, it will result in transmission errors. When the number of stop bits is 1 or more, stop bits are sampled like the start and data bits as seen in Figure 16.6 (p. 192) . When a stop bit has been detected by sampling at positions 8, 9 and 10 for normal mode, or 4, 5 and 6 for smart mode, the USART is ready for a new start bit. As seen in Figure 16.6 (p. 192) , a stop-bit of length 1 normally ends at c, but the next frame will be received correctly as long as the start-bit comes after position a for OVS=0 and OVS=3, and b for OVS=1 and OVS=2. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 191 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 16.6. USART Sampling of Stop Bits when Number of Stop Bits are 1 or More a 7 OVS = 3 8 6 4 c 1 s top bit 13 14 15 16 1 OVS = 2 OVS = 1 OVS = 0 n'th bit b 1 2 3 4 2 1 1 5 Idle or s ta rt bit 6 7 3 2 4 3 2 8 9 10 0/1 X 5 4 6 X X 0/1 5 3 X X 0/1 0/1 X 1 1 When working with stop bit lengths of half a baud period, the above sampling scheme no longer suffices. In this case, the stop-bit is not sampled, and no framing error is generated in the receiver if the stopbit is not generated. The line must still be driven high before the next start bit however for the USART to successfully identify the start bit. 16.3.2.4.4 Parity Error When parity bits are enabled, a parity check is automatically performed on incoming frames. When a parity error is detected in an incoming frame, the data parity error bit PERR in the frame is set, as well as the interrupt flag PERR in USARTn_IF. Frames with parity errors are loaded into the receive buffer like regular frames. PERR can be accessed by reading the frame from the receive buffer using the USARTn_RXDATAX, USARTn_RXDATAXP, USARTn_RXDOUBLEX or USARTn_RXDOUBLEXP registers. If ERRSTX in USARTn_CTRL is set, the transmitter is disabled on received parity and framing errors. If ERRSRX in USARTn_CTRL is set, the receiver is disabled on parity and framing errors. 16.3.2.4.5 Framing Error and Break Detection A framing error is the result of an asynchronous frame where the stop bit was sampled to a value of 0. This can be the result of noise and baud rate errors, but can also be the result of a break generated by the transmitter on purpose. When a framing error is detected in an incoming frame, the framing error bit FERR in the frame is set. The interrupt flag FERR in USARTn_IF is also set. Frames with framing errors are loaded into the receive buffer like regular frames. FERR can be accessed by reading the frame from the receive buffer using the USARTn_RXDATAX, USARTn_RXDATAXP, USARTn_RXDOUBLEX or USARTn_RXDOUBLEXP registers. If ERRSTX in USARTn_CTRL is set, the transmitter is disabled on parity and framing errors. If ERRSRX in USARTn_CTRL is set, the receiver is disabled on parity and framing errors. 16.3.2.5 Local Loopback The USART receiver samples U(S)n_RX by default, and the transmitter drives U(S)n_TX by default. This is not the only option however. When LOOPBK in USARTn_CTRL is set, the receiver is connected to the U(S)n_TX pin as shown in Figure 16.7 (p. 193) . This is useful for debugging, as the USART 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 192 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers can receive the data it transmits, but it is also used to allow the USART to read and write to the same pin, which is required for some half duplex communication modes. In this mode, the U(S)n_TX pin must be enabled as an output in the GPIO. Figure 16.7. USART Local Loopback LOOBP K = 0 LOOBP K = 1 C C US ART US ART TX U(S )n_TX TX U(S )n_TX RX U(S )n_RX RX U(S )n_RX 16.3.2.6 Asynchronous Half Duplex Communication When doing full duplex communication, two data links are provided, making it possible for data to be sent and received at the same time. In half duplex mode, data is only sent in one direction at a time. There are several possible half duplex setups, as described in the following sections. 16.3.2.6.1 Single Data-link In this setup, the USART both receives and transmits data on the same pin. This is enabled by setting LOOPBK in USARTn_CTRL, which connects the receiver to the transmitter output. Because they are both connected to the same line, it is important that the USART transmitter does not drive the line when receiving data, as this would corrupt the data on the line. When communicating over a single data-link, the transmitter must thus be tristated whenever not transmitting data. This is done by setting the command bit TXTRIEN in USARTn_CMD, which tristates the transmitter. Before transmitting data, the command bit TXTRIDIS, also in USARTn_CMD, must be set to enable transmitter output again. Whether or not the output is tristated at a given time can be read from TXTRI in USARTn_STATUS. If TXTRI is set when transmitting data, the data is shifted out of the shift register, but is not put out on U(S)n_TX. When operating a half duplex data bus, it is common to have a bus master, which first transmits a request to one of the bus slaves, then receives a reply. In this case, the frame transmission control bits, which can be set by writing to USARTn_TXDATAX, can be used to make the USART automatically disable transmission, tristate the transmitter and enable reception when the request has been transmitted, making it ready to receive a response from the slave. Tristating the transmitter can also be performed automatically by the USART by using AUTOTRI in USARTn_CTRL. When AUTOTRI is set, the USART automatically tristates U(S)n_TX whenever the transmitter is idle, and enables transmitter output when the transmitter goes active. If AUTOTRI is set TXTRI is always read as 0. Note Another way to tristate the transmitter is to enable wired-and or wired-or mode in GPIO. For wired-and mode, outputting a 1 will be the same as tristating the output, and for wiredor mode, outputting a 0 will be the same as tristating the output. This can only be done on buses with a pull-up or pull-down resistor respectively. 16.3.2.6.2 Single Data-link with External Driver Some communication schemes, such as RS-485 rely on an external driver. Here, the driver has an extra input which enables it, and instead of tristating the transmitter when receiving data, the external driver must be disabled. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 193 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers This can be done manually by assigning a GPIO to turn the driver on or off, or it can be handled automatically by the USART. If AUTOCS in USARTn_CTRL is set, the USn_CS output is automatically activated one baud period before the transmitter starts transmitting data, and deactivated when the last bit has been transmitted and there is no more data in the transmit buffer to transmit, or the transmitter becomes disabled. This feature can be used to turn the external driver on when transmitting data, and turn it off when the data has been transmitted. Figure 16.8 (p. 194) shows an example configuration where USn_CS is used to automatically enable and disable an external driver. Figure 16.8. USART Half Duplex Communication with External Driver C US ART CS TX RX The USn_CS output is active low by default, but its polarity can be changed with CSINV in USARTn_CTRL. AUTOCS works regardless of which mode the USART is in, so this functionality can also be used for automatic chip/slave select when in synchronous mode (e.g. SPI). 16.3.2.6.3 Two Data-links Some limited devices only support half duplex communication even though two data links are available. In this case software is responsible for making sure data is not transmitted when incoming data is expected. 16.3.2.7 Large Frames As each frame in the transmit and receive buffers holds a maximum of 9 bits, both the elements in the buffers are combined when working with USART-frames of 10 or more data bits. To transmit such a frame, at least two elements must be available in the transmit buffer. If only one element is available, the USART will wait for the second element before transmitting the combined frame. Both the elements making up the frame are consumed when transmitting such a frame. When using large frames, the 9th bits in the buffers are unused. For an 11 bit frame, the 8 least significant bits are thus taken from the first element in the buffer, and the 3 remaining bits are taken from the second element as shown in Figure 16.9 (p. 195) . The first element in the transmit buffer, i.e. element 0 in Figure 16.9 (p. 195) is the first element written to the FIFO, or the least significant byte when writing two bytes at a time using USARTn_TXDOUBLE. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 194 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 16.9.

The two buffer elements can be written at the same time using the USARTn_TXDOUBLE or USARTn_TXDOUBLEX register. The TXDATAX0 bitfield then refers to buffer element 0, and TXDATAX1 refers to buffer element 1. Figure 16.10. USART Transmission of Large Frames, MSBF P e riphe ra l Bus TX buffe r e le me nt 1 0 1 2 TX buffe r e le me nt 0 0 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 0 5 6 7 S hift re gis te r 2 1 0 7 6 5 Figure 16.10 (p. 195) illustrates the order of the transmitted bits when an 11 bit frame is transmitted with MSBF set. If MSBF is set and the frame is smaller than 10 bits, only the contents of transmit buffer 0 will be transmitted. When receiving a large frame, BYTESWAP in USARTn_CTRL determines the order the way the large frame is split into the two buffer elements. If BYTESWAP is cleared, the least significant 8 bits of the received frame are loaded into the first element of the receive buffer, and the remaining bits are loaded into the second element, as shown in Figure 16.11 (p. 196) . The first byte read from the buffer thus contains the 8 least significant bits. Set BYTESWAP to reverse the order. The status bits are loaded into both elements of the receive buffer. The frame is not moved from the receive shift register before there are two free spaces in the receive buffer. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 195 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 16.11.

RXDATA0 then refers to buffer element 0 and RXDATA1 refers to buffer element 1. Large frames can be used in both asynchronous and synchronous modes. 16.3.2.8 Multi-Processor Mode To simplify communication between multiple processors, the USART supports a special multi-processor mode. In this mode the 9th data bit in each frame is used to indicate whether the content of the remaining 8 bits is data or an address. When multi-processor mode is enabled, an incoming 9-bit frame with the 9th bit equal to the value of MPAB in USARTn_CTRL is identified as an address frame. When an address frame is detected, the MPAF interrupt flag in USARTn_IF is set, and the address frame is loaded into the receive register. This happens regardless of the value of RXBLOCK in USARTn_STATUS. Multi-processor mode is enabled by setting MPM in USARTn_CTRL, and the value of the 9th bit in address frames can be set in MPAB. Note that the receiver must be enabled for address frames to be detected. The receiver can be blocked however, preventing data from being loaded into the receive buffer while looking for address frames. Example 16.1 (p. 196) explains basic usage of the multi-processor mode: Example 16.1. USART Multi-processor Mode Example 1. All slaves enable multi-processor mode and, enable and block the receiver. They will now not receive data unless it is an address frame. MPAB in USARTn_CTRL is set to identify frames with the 9th bit high as address frames. 2. The master sends a frame containing the address of a slave and with the 9th bit set. 3. All slaves receive the address frame and get an interrupt. They can read the address from the receive buffer. The selected slave unblocks the receiver to start receiving data from the master. 4. The master sends data with the 9th bit cleared. 5. Only the slave with RX enabled receives the data. When transmission is complete, the slave blocks the receiver and waits for a new address frame. When a slave has received an address frame and wants to receive the following data, it must make sure the receiver is unblocked before the next frame has been completely received in order to prevent data loss. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 196 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers BIT8DV in USARTn_CTRL can be used to specify the value of the 9th bit without writing to the transmit buffer with USARTn_TXDATAX or USARTn_TXDOUBLEX, giving higher efficiency in multi-processor mode, as the 9th bit is only set when writing address frames, and 8-bit writes to the USART can be used when writing the data frames. 16.3.2.9 Collision Detection The USART supports a basic form of collision detection. When the receiver is connected to the output of the transmitter, either by using the LOOPBK bit in USARTn_CTRL or through an external connection, this feature can be used to detect whether data transmitted on the bus by the USART did get corrupted by a simultaneous transmission by another device on the bus. For collision detection to be enabled, CCEN in USARTn_CTRL must be set, and the receiver enabled. The data sampled by the receiver is then continuously compared with the data output by the transmitter. If they differ, the CCF interrupt flag in USARTn_IF is set. The collision check includes all bits of the transmitted frames. The CCF interrupt flag is set once for each bit sampled by the receiver that differs from the bit output by the transmitter. When the transmitter output is disabled, i.e. the transmitter is tristated, collisions are not registered. 16.3.2.10 SmartCard Mode In SmartCard mode, the USART supports the ISO 7816 I/O line T0 mode. With exception of the stopbits (guard time), the 7816 data frame is equal to the regular asynchronous frame. In this mode, the receiver pulls the line low for one baud, half a baud into the guard time to indicate a parity error. This NAK can for instance be used by the transmitter to re-transmit the frame. SmartCard mode is a half duplex asynchronous mode, so the transmitter must be tristated whenever not transmitting data. To enable SmartCard mode, set SCMODE in USARTn_CTRL, set the number of databits in a frame to 8, and configure the number of stopbits to 1.5 by writing to STOPBITS in USARTn_FRAME. The SmartCard mode relies on half duplex communication on a single line, so for it to work, both the receiver and transmitter must work on the same line. This can be achieved by setting LOOPBK in USARTn_CTRL or through an external connection. The TX output should be configured as open-drain in the GPIO module. When no parity error is identified by the receiver, the data frame is as shown in Figure 16.12 (p. 197) . The frame consists of 8 data bits, a parity bit, and 2 stop bits. The transmitter does not drive the output line during the guard time. Figure 16.12. USART ISO 7816 Data Frame Without Error IS O 7816 Fra me without e rror S top or idle S ta rt or idle S 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 P S top If a parity error is detected by the receiver, it pulls the line I/O line low after half a stop bit, see Figure 16.13 (p. 198) . It holds the line low for one bit-period before it releases the line. In this case, the guard time is extended by one bit period before a new transmission can start, resulting in a total of 3 stop bits. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 197 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 16.13. USART ISO 7816 Data Frame With Error IS O 7816 Fra me with e rror S ta rt or idle S top or idle S 0 1 3 2 4 6 5 P 7 S top NAK S top On a parity error, the NAK is generated by hardware. The NAK generated by the receiver is sampled as the stop-bit of the frame. Because of this, parity errors when in SmartCard mode are reported with both a parity error and a framing error. When transmitting a T0 frame, the USART receiver on the transmitting side samples position 16, 17 and 18 in the stop-bit to detect the error signal when in 16x oversampling mode as shown in Figure 16.14 (p. 198) . Sampling at this location places the stop-bit sample in the middle of the bit-period used for the error signal (NAK). If a NAK is transmitted by the receiver, it will thus appear as a framing error at the transmitter, and the FERR interrupt flag in USARTn_IF will be set. If SCRETRANS USARTn_CTRL is set, the transmitter will automatically retransmit a NACK'ed frame. The transmitter will retransmit the frame until it is ACK'ed by the receiver. This only works when the number of databits in a frame is configured to 8. Set SKIPPERRF in USARTn_CTRL to make the receiver discard frames with parity errors. The PERR interrupt flag in USARTn_IF is set when a frame is discarded because of a parity error. Figure 16.14.

This clock output can be generated using one of the timers. See the ISO 7816 specification for more info on this clock signal. SmartCard T1 mode is also supported. The T1 frame format used is the same as the asynchronous frame format with parity bit enabled and one stop bit. The USART must then be configured to operate in asynchronous half duplex mode. 16.3.3 Synchronous Operation Most of the features in asynchronous mode are available in synchronous mode. Multi-processor mode can be enabled for 9-bit frames, loopback is available and collision detection can be performed. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 198 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 16.3.3.1 Frame Format The frames used in synchronous mode need no start and stop bits since a single clock is available to all parts participating in the communication. Parity bits cannot be used in synchronous mode. The USART supports frame lengths of 4 to 16 bits per frame. Larger frames can be simulated by transmitting multiple smaller frames, i.e. a 22 bit frame can be sent using two 11-bit frames, and a 21 bit frame can be generated by transmitting three 7-bit frames. The number of bits in a frame is set using DATABITS in USARTn_FRAME. The frames in synchronous mode are by default transmitted with the least significant bit first like in asynchronous mode. The bit-order can be reversed by setting MSBF in USARTn_CTRL. The frame format used by the transmitter can be inverted by setting TXINV in USARTn_CTRL, and the format expected by the receiver can be inverted by setting RXINV, also in USARTn_CTRL. 16.3.3.2 Clock Generation The bit-rate in synchronous mode is given by Equation 16.3 (p. 199) . As in the case of asynchronous operation, the clock division factor have a 13-bit integral part and a 2-bit fractional part. USART Synchronous Mode Bit Rate br = fHFPERCLK/(2 x (1 + USARTn_CLKDIV/256)) (16.3) Given a desired baud rate brdesired, the clock divider USARTn_CLKDIV can be calculated using Equation 16.4 (p. 199) USART Synchronous Mode Clock Division Factor USARTn_CLKDIV = 256 x (fHFPERCLK/(2 x brdesired) - 1) (16.4) When the USART operates in master mode, the highest possible bit rate is half the peripheral clock rate. When operating in slave mode however, the highest bit rate is an eighth of the peripheral clock: * Master mode: brmax = fHFPERCLK/2 * Slave mode: brmax = fHFPERCLK/8 On every clock edge data on the data lines, MOSI and MISO, is either set up or sampled. When CLKPHA in USARTn_CTRL is cleared, data is sampled on the leading clock edge and set-up is done on the trailing edge. If CLKPHA is set however, data is set-up on the leading clock edge, and sampled on the trailing edge. In addition to this, the polarity of the clock signal can be changed by setting CLKPOL in USARTn_CTRL, which also defines the idle state of the clock. This results in four different modes which are summarized in Table 16.8 (p. 199) . Figure 16.15 (p. 200) shows the resulting timing of data set-up and sampling relative to the bus clock. Table 16.8.

If CPHA=0, TXUF is set if data is not available in the transmit buffer three HFPERCLK cycles prior to the first sample clock edge. The RXDATAV flag is updated on the last sample clock edge of a transfer, while the RX overflow interrupt flag, RXOF, is set on the first sample clock edge if the receive buffer overflows. When a transfer has been performed, interrupt flags TXBL and TXC are updated on the first setup clock edge of the succeeding frame, or when CS is deasserted. 16.3.3.3 Master Mode When in master mode, the USART is in full control of the data flow on the synchronous bus. When operating in full duplex mode, the slave cannot transmit data to the master without the master transmitting to the slave. The master outputs the bus clock on USn_CLK. Communication starts whenever there is data in the transmit buffer and the transmitter is enabled. The USART clock then starts, and the master shifts bits out from the transmit shift register using the internal clock. When there are no more frames in the transmit buffer and the transmit shift register is empty, the clock stops, and communication ends. When the receiver is enabled, it samples data using the internal clock when the transmitter transmits data. Operation of the RX and TX buffers is as in asynchronous mode. 16.3.3.3.1 Operation of USn_CS Pin When operating in master mode, the USn_CS pin can have one of two functions, or it can be disabled. If USn_CS is configured as an output, it can be used to automatically generate a chip select for a slave by setting AUTOCS in USARTn_CTRL. If AUTOCS is set, USn_CS is activated when a transmission begins, and deactivated directly after the last bit has been transmitted and there is no more data in the transmit buffer. By default, USn_CS is active low, but its polarity can be inverted by setting CSINV in USARTn_CTRL. When USn_CS is configured as an input, it can be used by another master that wants control of the bus to make the USART release it. When USn_CS is driven low, or high if CSINV is set, the interrupt flag SSM in USARTn_IF is set, and if CSMA in USARTn_CTRL is set, the USART goes to slave mode. 16.3.3.4 Slave Mode When the USART is in slave mode, data transmission is not controlled by the USART, but by an external master. The USART is therefore not able to initiate a transmission, and has no control over the number of bytes written to the master. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 200 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers The output and input to the USART are also swapped when in slave mode, making the receiver take its input from USn_TX (MOSI) and the transmitter drive USn_RX (MISO). To transmit data when in slave mode, the slave must load data into the transmit buffer and enable the transmitter. The data will remain in the USART until the master starts a transmission by pulling the USn_CS input of the slave low and transmitting data. For every frame the master transmits to the slave, a frame is transferred from the slave to the master. After a transmission, MISO remains in the same state as the last bit transmitted. This also applies if the master transmits to the slave and the slave TX buffer is empty. If the transmitter is enabled in synchronous slave mode and the master starts transmission of a frame, the underflow interrupt flag TXUF in USARTn_IF will be set if no data is available for transmission to the master. If the slave needs to control its own chip select signal, this can be achieved by clearing CSPEN in the ROUTE register. The internal chip select signal can then be controlled through CSINV in the CTRL register. The chip select signal will be CSINV inverted, i.e. if CSINV is cleared, the chip select is active and vice versa. 16.3.3.5 Synchronous Half Duplex Communication Half duplex communication in synchronous mode is very similar to half duplex communication in asynchronous mode as detailed in Section 16.3.2.6 (p. 193) . The main difference is that in this mode, the master must generate the bus clock even when it is not transmitting data, i.e. it must provide the slave with a clock to receive data. To generate the bus clock, the master should transmit data with the transmitter tristated, i.e. TXTRI in USARTn_STATUS set, when receiving data. If 2 bytes are expected from the slave, then transmit 2 bytes with the transmitter tristated, and the slave uses the generated bus clock to transmit data to the master. TXTRI can be set by setting the TXTRIEN command bit in USARTn_CMD. Note When operating as SPI slave in half duplex mode, TX has to be tristated (not disabled) during data reception if the slave is to transmit data in the current transfer. 16.3.4 PRS-triggered Transmissions If a transmission must be started on an event with very little delay, the PRS system can be used to trigger the transmission. The PRS channel to use as a trigger can be selected using TSEL in USARTn_TRIGCTRL. When a positive edge is detected on this signal, the receiver is enabled if RXTEN in USARTn_TRIGCTRL is set, and the transmitter is enabled if TXTEN in USARTn_TRIGCTRL is set. Only one signal input is supported by the USART. 16.3.5 DMA Support The USART has full DMA support. The DMA controller can write to the transmit buffer using the registers USARTn_TXDATA, USARTn_TXDATAX, USARTn_TXDOUBLE and USARTn_TXDOUBLEX, and it can read from the receive buffer using the registers USARTn_RXDATA, USARTn_RXDATAX, USARTn_RXDOUBLE and USARTn_RXDOUBLEX. This enables single byte transfers, 9 bit data + control/status bits, double byte and double byte + control/status transfers both to and from the USART. A request for the DMA controller to read from the USART receive buffer can come from the following source: * Data available in the receive buffer. A write request can come from one of the following sources: * Transmit buffer and shift register empty. No data to send. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 201 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Transmit buffer has room for more data. Even though there are two sources for write requests to the DMA, only one should be used at a time, since the requests from both sources are cleared even though only one of the requests are used. In some cases, it may be sensible to temporarily stop DMA access to the USART when an error such as a framing error has occurred. This is enabled by setting ERRSDMA in USARTn_CTRL. 16.3.6 Transmission Delay By configuring TXDELAY in USARTn_CTRL, the transmitter can be forced to wait a number of bitperiods from it is ready to transmit data, to it actually transmits the data. This delay is only applied to the first frame transmitted after the transmitter has been idle. When transmitting frames back-to-back the delay is not introduced between the transmitted frames. This is useful on half duplex buses, because the receiver always returns received frames to software during the first stop-bit. The bus may still be driven for up to 3 baud periods, depending on the current frame format. Using the transmission delay, a transmission can be started when a frame is received, and it is possible to make sure that the transmitter does not begin driving the output before the frame on the bus is completely transmitted. TXDELAY in USARTn_CTRL only applies to asynchronous transmission. 16.3.7 Interrupts The interrupts generated by the USART are combined into two interrupt vectors. Interrupts related to reception are assigned to one interrupt vector, and interrupts related to transmission are assigned to the other. Separating the interrupts in this way allows different priorities to be set for transmission and reception interrupts. The transmission interrupt vector groups the transmission-related interrupts generated by the following interrupt flags: * * * * TXC TXBL TXOF CCF The reception interrupt on the other hand groups the reception-related interrupts, triggered by the following interrupt flags: * * * * * * * * RXDATAV RXFULL RXOF RXUF PERR FERR MPAF SSM If USART interrupts are enabled, an interrupt will be made if one or more of the interrupt flags in USART_IF and their corresponding bits in USART_IEN are set. 16.3.8 IrDA Modulator/Demodulator The IrDA modulator onUSART0 implements the physical layer of the IrDA specification, which is necessary for communication over IrDA. The modulator takes the signal output from the USART module, 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 202 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers and modulates it before it leaves USART0 . In the same way, the input signal is demodulated before it enters the actual USART module. The modulator is only available on USART0 , and implements the original Rev. 1.0 physical layer and one high speed extension which supports speeds from 2.4 kbps to 1.152 Mbps. The data from and to the USART is represented in a NRZ (Non Return to Zero) format, where the signal value is at the same level through the entire bit period. For IrDA, the required format is RZI (Return to Zero Inverted), a format where a "1" is signalled by holding the line low, and a "0" is signalled by a short high pulse. An example is given in Figure 16.16 (p. 203) . Figure 16.16. USART Example RZI Signal for a given Asynchronous USART Frame Idle US ART (NRZ) Idle S 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 P S top IrDA (RZI) The IrDA module is enabled by setting IREN. The USART transmitter output and receiver input is then routed through the IrDA modulator. The width of the pulses generated by the IrDA modulator is set by configuring IRPW in USARTn_IRCTRL. Four pulse widths are available, each defined relative to the configured bit period as listed in Table 16.9 (p. 203) . Table 16.9. USART IrDA Pulse Widths IRPW Pulse width OVS=0 Pulse width OVS=1 Pulse width OVS=2 Pulse width OVS=3 00 1/16 1/8 1/6 1/4 01 2/16 2/8 2/6 N/A 10 3/16 3/8 N/A N/A 11 4/16 N/A N/A N/A By default, no filter is enabled in the IrDA demodulator. A filter can be enabled by setting IRFILT in USARTn_IRCTRL. When the filter is enabled, an incoming pulse has to last for 4 consecutive clock cycles to be detected by the IrDA demodulator. Note that by default, the idle value of the USART data signal is high. This means that the IrDA modulator generates negative pulses, and the IrDA demodulator expects negative pulses. To make the IrDA module use RZI signalling, both TXINV and RXINV in USARTn_CTRL must be set. The IrDA module can also modulate a signal from the PRS system, and transmit a modulated signal to the PRS system. To use a PRS channel as transmitter source instead of the USART, set IRPRSEN in USARTn_IRCTRL high. The channel is selected by configuring IRPRSSEL in USARTn_IRCTRL. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 203 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 16.4 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

DMA controlle r It allows UART communication to be performed in low energy modes, using only a few A during active communication and only 150 nA when waiting for incoming data. RAM How? LEUART A low frequency clock signal allows communication with less energy. Using DMA, the LEUART can transmit and receive data with minimal CPU intervention. Special UART-frames can be configured to help control the data flow, further automating data transmission. RX TX 18.1 Introduction TM The unique LEUART , the Low Energy UART, is a UART that allows two-way UART communication on a strict power budget. Only a 32.768 kHz clock is needed to allow UART communication at baud rates up to 9600. Even when the EFM is in low energy mode EM2 (with most core functionality turned off), the LEUART can wait for an incoming UART frame while having an extremely low energy consumption. When a UART frame is completely received, the CPU can quickly be woken up. Alternatively, multiple frames can be transferred via the Direct Memory Access (DMA) module into RAM memory before waking up the CPU. Received data can optionally be blocked until a configurable start frame is detected. A signal frame can be configured to generate an interrupt to indicate e.g. the end of a data transmission. The start frame and signal frame can be used in combination for instance to handle higher level communication protocols. Similarly, data can be transmitted in EM2 either on a frame-by-frame basis with data from the CPU or through use of the DMA. The LEUART includes all necessary hardware support to make asynchronous serial communication possible with minimum of software intervention and energy consumption. 18.2 Features * * * * * Low energy asynchronous serial communications Full/half duplex communication Separate TX / RX enable Separate double buffered transmit buffer and receive buffer Programmable baud rate, generated as a fractional division of the LFBCLK * Supports baud rates from 300 baud/s to 9600 baud/s 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 224 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Can use a high frequency clock source for even higher baud rates * Configurable number of data bits: 8 or 9 (plus parity bit, if enabled) * Configurable parity: off, even or odd * HW parity bit generation and check * Configurable number of stop bits, 1 or 2 * Capable of sleep-mode wake-up on received frame * Either wake-up on any received byte or * Wake up only on specified start and signal frames * Supports transmission and reception in EM0, EM1 and EM2 with * Full DMA support * Specified start-byte can start reception automatically * IrDA modulator (pulse generator, pulse extender) * Multi-processor mode * Loopback mode * Half duplex communication * Communication debugging 18.3 Functional Description An overview of the LEUART module is shown in Figure 18.1 (p. 225) . Figure 18.1. LEUART Overview 18.3.1 Frame Format The frame format used by the LEUART consists of a set of data bits in addition to bits for synchronization and optionally a parity bit for error checking. A frame starts with one start-bit (S), where the line is driven low for one bit-period. This signals the start of a frame, and is used for synchronization. Following the start bit are 8 or 9 data bits and an optional parity bit. The data is transmitted with the least significant bit first. Finally, a number of stop-bits, where the line is driven high, end the frame. The frame format is shown in Figure 18.2 (p. 225) . Figure 18.2. LEUART Asynchronous Frame Format Fra me S top or idle S ta rt or idle S 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 [8] [P ] S top The number of data bits in a frame is set by DATABITS in LEUARTn_CTRL, and the number of stop-bits is set by STOPBITS in LEUARTn_CTRL. Whether or not a parity bit should be included, and whether it should be even or odd is defined by PARITY in LEUARTn_CTRL. For communication to be possible, all parties of an asynchronous transfer must agree on the frame format being used. The frame format used by the LEUART can be inverted by setting INV in LEUARTn_CTRL. This affects the entire frame, resulting in a low idle state, a high start-bit, inverted data and parity bits, and low stopbits. INV should only be changed while the receiver is disabled. 18.3.1.1 Parity Bit Calculation and Handling Hardware automatically inserts parity bits into outgoing frames and checks the parity bits of incoming frames. The possible parity modes are defined in Table 18.1 (p. 226) . When even parity is chosen, 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 225 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers a parity bit is inserted to make the number of high bits (data + parity) even. If odd parity is chosen, the parity bit makes the total number of high bits odd. When parity bits are disabled, which is the default configuration, the parity bit is omitted. Table 18.1. LEUART Parity Bit PARITY [1:0] Description 00 No parity (default) 01 Reserved 10 Even parity 11 Odd parity See Section 18.3.5.4 (p. 230) for more information on parity bit handling. 18.3.2 Clock Source The LEUART clock source is selected by the LFB bit field the CMU_LFCLKSEL register. The clock is prescaled by the LEUARTn bitfield in the CMU_LFBPRESC0 register and enabled by the LEUARTn bit in the CMU_LFBCLKEN0. To use this module, the LE interface clock must be enabled in CMU_HFCORECLKEN0, in addition to the module clock. 18.3.3 Clock Generation The LEUART clock defines the transmission and reception data rate. The clock generator employs a fractional clock divider to allow baud rates that are not attainable by integral division of the 32.768 kHz clock that drives the LEUART. The clock divider used in the LEUART is a 12-bit value, with a 7-bit integral part and a 5-bit fractional part. The baud rate of the LEUART is given by : LEUART Baud Rate Equation br = fLEUARTn/(1 + LEUARTn_CLKDIV/256) (18.1) where fLEUARTn is the clock frequency supplied to the LEUART. The value of LEUARTn_CLKDIV thus defines the baud rate of the LEUART. The integral part of the divider is right-aligned in the upper 24 bits of LEUARTn_CLKDIV and the fractional part is left-aligned in the lower 8 bits. The divider is thus a 256th of LEUARTn_CLKDIV as seen in the equation. For a desired baud rate brDESIRED, LEUARTn_CLKDIV can be calculated by using: LEUART CLKDIV Equation LEUARTn_CLKDIV = 256 x (fLEUARTn/brDESIRED - 1) (18.2) Table 18.2 (p. 227) lists a set of desired baud rates and the closest baud rates reachable by the LEUART with a 32.768 kHz clock source. It also shows the average baud rate error. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 226 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Table 18.2.

When the transmission shift register is empty and ready for new data, a frame from the transmit buffer is loaded into the shift register, and if the transmitter is enabled, transmission begins. When the frame has been transmitted, a new frame is loaded into the shift register if available, and transmission continues. If the transmit buffer is empty, the transmitter goes to an idle state, waiting for a new frame to become available. Transmission is enabled through the command register LEUARTn_CMD by setting TXEN, and disabled by setting TXDIS. When the transmitter is disabled using TXDIS, any ongoing transmission is aborted, and any frame currently being transmitted is discarded. When disabled, the TX output goes to an idle state, which by default is a high value. Whether or not the transmitter is enabled at a given time can be read from TXENS in LEUARTn_STATUS. After a transmission, when there is no more data in the shift register or transmit buffer, the TXC flag in LEUARTn_STATUS and the TXC interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF are set, signaling that the transmitter is idle. The TXC status flag is cleared when a new byte becomes available for transmission, but the TXC interrupt flag must be cleared by software. 18.3.4.1 Transmit Buffer Operation A frame can be loaded into the transmit buffer by writing to LEUARTn_TXDATA or LEUARTn_TXDATAX. Using LEUARTn_TXDATA allows 8 bits to be written to the buffer. If 9 bit frames are used, the 9th bit will in that case be set to the value of BIT8DV in LEUARTn_CTRL. To set the 9th bit directly and/or use transmission control, LEUARTn_TXDATAX must be used. When writing data to the transmit buffer using LEUARTn_TXDATAX, the 9th bit written to LEUARTn_TXDATAX overrides the value in BIT8DV, and alone defines the 9th bit that is transmitted if 9-bit frames are used. If a write is attempted to the transmit buffer when it is not empty, the TXOF interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF is set, indicating the overflow. The data already in the buffer is in that case preserved, and no data is written. In addition to the interrupt flag TXC in LEUARTn_IF and the status flag TXC in LEUARTn_STATUS which are set when the transmitter becomes idle, TXBL in LEUARTn_STATUS and the TXBL interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF are used to indicate the level of the transmit buffer. Whenever the transmit buffer becomes empty, these flags are set high. Both the TXBL status flag and the TXBL interrupt flag are cleared automatically when data is written to the transmit buffer. The transmit buffer, including the TX shift register can be cleared by setting command bit CLEARTX in LEUARTn_CMD. This will prevent the LEUART from transmitting the data in the buffer and shift register, and will make them available for new data. Any frame currently being transmitted will not be aborted. Transmission of this frame will be completed. An overview of the operation of the transmitter is shown in Figure 18.3 (p. 228) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 227 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 18.3.

The following options are available: * Generate break: By setting WBREAK, the output will be held low during the first stop-bit period to generate a framing error. A receiver that supports break detection detects this state, allowing it to be used e.g. for framing of larger data packets. The line is driven high for one baud period before the next frame is transmitted so the next start condition can be identified correctly by the recipient. Continuous breaks lasting longer than an UART frame are thus not supported by the LEUART. GPIO can be used for this. Note that when AUTOTRI in LEUARTn_CTRL is used, the transmitter is not tristated before the high-bit after the break has been transmitted. * Disable transmitter after transmission: If TXDISAT is set, the transmitter is disabled after the frame has been fully transmitted. * Enable receiver after transmission: If RXENAT is set, the receiver is enabled after the frame has been fully transmitted. It is enabled in time to detect a start-bit directly after the last stop-bit has been transmitted. The transmission control bits in the LEUART cannot tristate the transmitter. This is performed automatically by hardware however, if AUTOTRI in LEUARTn_CTRL is set. See Section 18.3.7 (p. 232) for more information on half duplex operation. 18.3.4.3 Jitter in Transmitted Data Internally the LEUART module uses only the positive edges of the 32.768 kHz clock (LFBCLK) for transmission and reception. Transmitted data will thus have jitter equal to the difference between the optimal data set-up location and the closest positive edge on the 32.768 kHz clock. The jitter in on the location data is set up by the transmitter will thus be no more than half a clock period according to the optimal set-up location. The jitter in the period of a single baud output by the transmitter will never be more than one clock period. 18.3.5 Data Reception Data reception is enabled by setting RXEN in LEUARTn_CMD. When the receiver is enabled, it actively samples the input looking for a transition from high to low indicating the start baud of a new frame. When a start baud is found, reception of the new frame begins if the receive shift register is empty and ready for new data. When the frame has been received, it is pushed into the receive buffer, making the shift register ready for another frame of data, and the receiver starts looking for another start baud. If the 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 228 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers receive buffer is full, the received frame remains in the shift register until more space in the receive buffer is available. If an incoming frame is detected while both the receive buffer and the receive shift register are full, the data in the receive shift register is overwritten, and the RXOF interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF is set to indicate the buffer overflow. The receiver can be disabled by setting the command bit RXDIS in LEUARTn_CMD. Any frame currently being received when the receiver is disabled is discarded. Whether or not the receiver is enabled at a given time can be read out from RXENS in LEUARTn_STATUS. 18.3.5.1 Receive Buffer Operation When data becomes available in the receive buffer, the RXDATAV flag in LEUARTn_STATUS and the RXDATAV interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF are set. Both the RXDATAV status flag and the RXDATAV interrupt flag are cleared by hardware when data is no longer available, i.e. when data has been read out of the buffer. Data can be read from receive buffer using either LEUARTn_RXDATA or LEUARTn_RXDATAX. LEUARTn_RXDATA gives access to the 8 least significant bits of the received frame, while LEUARTn_RXDATAX must be used to get access to the 9th, most significant bit. The latter register also contains status information regarding the frame. When a frame is read from the receive buffer using LEUARTn_RXDATA or LEUARTn_RXDATAX, the frame is removed from the buffer, making room for a new one. If an attempt is done to read more frames from the buffer than what is available, the RXUF interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF is set to signal the underflow, and the data read from the buffer is undefined. Frames can also be read from the receive buffer without removing the data by using LEUARTn_RXDATAXP, which gives access to the frame in the buffer including control bits. Data read from this register when the receive buffer is empty is undefined. No underflow interrupt is generated by a read using LEUARTn_RXDATAXP, i.e. the RXUF interrupt flag is never set as a result of reading from LEUARTn_RXDATAXP. An overview of the operation of the receiver is shown in Figure 18.4 (p. 229) . Figure 18.4.

This is accomplished by blocking incoming data. Incoming data is blocked as long as RXBLOCK in LEUARTn_STATUS is set. When blocked, frames received by the receiver will not be loaded into the receive buffer, and software is not notified by the RXDATAV bit in LEUARTn_STATUS or the RXDATAV interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF at their arrival. For data to be loaded into the receive buffer, RXBLOCK must be cleared in the instant a frame is fully received by the receiver. RXBLOCK is set by setting RXBLOCKEN in LEUARTn_CMD and disabled by setting RXBLOCKDIS also in LEUARTn_CMD. There are two exceptions where data is loaded into the receive buffer even when RXBLOCK is set. The first is when an address frame is received when in operating in multi-processor mode as shown in Section 18.3.5.8 (p. 232) . The other case is when receiving a start-frame when SFUBRX in LEUARTn_CTRL is set; see Section 18.3.5.6 (p. 231) Frames received containing framing or parity errors will not result in the FERR and PERR interrupt flags in LEUARTn_IF being set while RXBLOCK is set. Hardware recognition is not applied to these erroneous frames, and they are silently discarded. Note If a frame is received while RXBLOCK in LEUARTn_STATUS is cleared, but stays in the receive shift register because the receive buffer is full, the received frame will be loaded into the receive buffer when space becomes available even if RXBLOCK is set at that time. The overflow interrupt flag RXOF in LEUARTn_IF will be set if a frame in the receive shift register, waiting to be loaded into the receive buffer is overwritten by an incoming frame even though RXBLOCK is set. 18.3.5.3 Data Sampling The receiver samples each incoming baud as close as possible to the middle of the baud-period. Except for the start-bit, only a single sample is taken of each of the incoming bauds. The length of a baud-period is given by 1 + LEUARTn_CLKDIV/256, as a number of 32.768 kHz clock periods. Let the clock cycle where a start-bit is first detected be given the index 0. The optimal sampling point for each baud in the UART frame is then given by the following equation: LEUART Optimal Sampling Point Sopt(n) = n (1 + LEUARTn_CLKDIV/256) + CLKDIV/512 (18.3) where n is the bit-index. Since samples are only done on the positive edges of the 32.768 kHz clock, the actual samples are performed on the closest positive edge, i.e. the edge given by the following equation: LEUART Actual Sampling Point S(n) = floor(n x (1 + LEUARTn_CLKDIV/256) + LEUARTn_CLKDIV/512) (18.4) The sampling location will thus have jitter according to difference between Sopt and S. The start-bit is found at n=0, then follows the data bits, any parity bit, and the stop bits. If the value of the start-bit is found to be high, then the start-bit is discarded, and the receiver waits for a new start-bit. 18.3.5.4 Parity Error When the parity bit is enabled, a parity check is automatically performed on incoming frames. When a parity error is detected in a frame, the data parity error bit PERR in the frame is set, as well as the interrupt flag PERR. Frames with parity errors are loaded into the receive buffer like regular frames. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 230 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers PERR can be accessed by reading the frame from the receive buffer using the LEUARTn_RXDATAX register. 18.3.5.5 Framing Error and Break Detection A framing error is the result of a received frame where the stop bit was sampled to a value of 0. This can be the result of noise and baud rate errors, but can also be the result of a break generated by the transmitter on purpose. When a framing error is detected, the framing error bit FERR in the received frame is set. The interrupt flag FERR in LEUARTn_IF is also set. Frames with framing errors are loaded into the receive buffer like regular frames. FERR can be accessed by reading the frame from the receive buffer using the LEUARTn_RXDATAX or LEUARTn_RXDATAXP registers. 18.3.5.6 Programmable Start Frame The LEUART can be configured to start receiving data when a special start frame is detected on the input. This can be useful when operating in low energy modes, allowing other devices to gain the attention of the LEUART by transmitting a given frame. When SFUBRX in LEUARTn_CTRL is set, an incoming frame matching the frame defined in LEUARTn_STARTFRAME will result in RXBLOCK in LEUARTn_STATUS being cleared. This can be used to enable reception when a specified start frame is detected. If the receiver is enabled and blocked, i.e. RXENS and RXBLOCK in LEUARTn_STATUS are set, the receiver will receive all incoming frames, but unless an incoming frame is a start frame it will be discarded and not loaded into the receive buffer. When a start frame is detected, the block is cleared, and frames received from that point, including the start frame, are loaded into the receive buffer. An incoming start frame results in the STARTF interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF being set, regardless of the value of SFUBRX in LEUARTn_CTRL. This allows an interrupt to be made when the start frame is detected. When 8 data-bit frame formats are used, only the 8 least significant bits of LEUARTn_STARTFRAME are compared to incoming frames. The full length of LEUARTn_STARTFRAME is used when operating with frames consisting of 9 data bits. Note The receiver must be enabled for start frames to be detected. In addition, a start frame with a parity error or framing error is not detected as a start frame. 18.3.5.7 Programmable Signal Frame As well as the configurable start frame, a special signal frame can be specified. When a frame matching the frame defined in LEUARTn_SIGFRAME is detected by the receiver, the SIGF interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF is set. As for start frame detection, the receiver must be enabled for signal frames to be detected. One use of the programmable signal frame is to signal the end of a multi-frame message transmitted to the LEUART. An interrupt will then be triggered when the packet has been completely received, allowing software to process it. Used in conjunction with the programmable start frame and DMA, this makes it possible for the LEUART to automatically begin the reception of a packet on a specified start frame, load the entire packet into memory, and give an interrupt when reception of a packet has completed. The device can thus wait for data packets in EM2, and only be woken up when a packet has been completely received. A signal frame with a parity error or framing error is not detected as a signal frame. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 231 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 18.3.5.8 Multi-Processor Mode To simplify communication between multiple processors and maintain compatibility with the USART, the LEUART supports a multi-processor mode. In this mode the 9th data bit in each frame is used to indicate whether the content of the remaining 8 bits is data or an address. When multi-processor mode is enabled, an incoming 9-bit frame with the 9th bit equal to the value of MPAB in LEUARTn_CTRL is identified as an address frame. When an address frame is detected, the MPAF interrupt flag in LEUARTn_IF is set, and the address frame is loaded into the receive register. This happens regardless of the value of RXBLOCK in LEUARTn_STATUS. Multi-processor mode is enabled by setting MPM in LEUARTn_CTRL. The mode can be used in buses with multiple slaves, allowing the slaves to be addressed using the special address frames. An addressed slave, which was previously blocking reception using RXBLOCK, would then unblock reception, receive a message from the bus master, and then block reception again, waiting for the next message. See the USART for a more detailed example. Note The programmable start frame functionality can be used for automatic address matching, enabling reception on a correctly configured incoming frame. An address frame with a parity error or a framing error is not detected as an address frame. 18.3.6 Loopback The LEUART receiver samples LEUn_RX by default, and the transmitter drives LEUn_TX by default. This is not the only configuration however. When LOOPBK in LEUARTn_CTRL is set, the receiver is connected to the LEUn_TX pin as shown in Figure 18.5 (p. 232) . This is useful for debugging, as the LEUART can receive the data it transmits, but it is also used to allow the LEUART to read and write to the same pin, which is required for some half duplex communication modes. In this mode, the LEUn_TX pin must be enabled as an output in the GPIO. Figure 18.5. LEUART Local Loopback LOOP BK = 0 LOOP BK = 1 C C LEUART TX LEUn_TX LEUART TX LEUn_TX RX LEUn_RX RX LEUn_RX 18.3.7 Half Duplex Communication When doing full duplex communication, two data links are provided, making it possible for data to be sent and received at the same time. In half duplex mode, data is only sent in one direction at a time. There are several possible half duplex setups, as described in the following sections. 18.3.7.1 Single Data-link In this setup, the LEUART both receives and transmits data on the same pin. This is enabled by setting LOOPBK in LEUARTn_CTRL, which connects the receiver to the transmitter output. Because they are both connected to the same line, it is important that the LEUART transmitter does not drive the line when receiving data, as this would corrupt the data on the line. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 232 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers When communicating over a single data-link, the transmitter must thus be tristated whenever not transmitting data. If AUTOTRI in LEUARTn_CTRL is set, the LEUART automatically tristates LEUn_TX whenever the transmitter is inactive. It is then the responsibility of the software protocol to make sure the transmitter is not transmitting data whenever incoming data is expected. The transmitter can also be tristated from software by configuring the GPIO pin as an input and disabling the LEUART output on LEUn_TX. Note Another way to tristate the transmitter is to enable wired-and or wired-or mode in GPIO. For wired-and mode, outputting a 1 will be the same as tristating the output, and for wiredor mode, outputting a 0 will be the same as tristating the output. This can only be done on buses with a pull-up or pull-down resistor respectively. 18.3.7.2 Single Data-link with External Driver Some communication schemes, such as RS-485 rely on an external driver. Here, the driver has an extra input which enables it, and instead of Tristating the transmitter when receiving data, the external driver must be disabled. The USART has hardware support for automatically turning the driver on and off. When using the LEUART in such a setup, the driver must be controlled by a GPIO. Figure 18.6 (p. 233) shows an example configuration using an external driver. Figure 18.6. LEUART Half Duplex Communication with External Driver C GP IO LEUART TX RX 18.3.7.3 Two Data-links Some limited devices only support half duplex communication even though two data links are available. In this case software is responsible for making sure data is not transmitted when incoming data is expected. 18.3.8 Transmission Delay By configuring TXDELAY in LEUARTn_CTRL, the transmitter can be forced to wait a number of bitperiods from it is ready to transmit data, to it actually transmits the data. This delay is only applied to the first frame transmitted after the transmitter has been idle. When transmitting frames back-to-back the delay is not introduced between the transmitted frames. This is useful on half duplex buses, because the receiver always returns received frames to software during the first stop-bit. The bus may still be driven for up to 3 baud periods, depending on the current frame format. Using the transmission delay, a transmission can be started when a frame is received, and it is possible to make sure that the transmitter does not begin driving the output before the frame on the bus is completely transmitted. 18.3.9 DMA Support The LEUART has full DMA support in energy modes EM0 - EM2. The DMA controller can write to the transmit buffer using the registers LEUARTn_TXDATA and LEUARTn_TXDATAX, and it can read from receive buffer using the registers LEUARTn_RXDATA and LEUARTn_RXDATAX. This enables single 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 233 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers byte transfers and 9 bit data + control/status bits transfers both to and from the LEUART. The DMA will start up the HFRCO and run from this when it is waken by the LEUART in EM2. The HFRCO is disabled once the transaction is done. A request for the DMA controller to read from the receive buffer can come from one of the following sources: * Receive buffer full A write request can come from one of the following sources: * Transmit buffer and shift register empty. No data to send. * Transmit buffer empty In some cases, it may be sensible to temporarily stop DMA access to the LEUART when a parity or framing error has occurred. This is enabled by setting ERRSDMA in LEUARTn_CTRL. When this bit is set, the DMA controller will not get requests from the receive buffer if a framing error or parity error is detected in the received byte. The ERRSDMA bit applies only to the RX DMA. When operating in EM2, the DMA controller must be powered up in order to perform the transfer. This is automatically performed for read operations if RXDMAWU in LEUARTn_CTRL is set and for write operations if TXDMAWU in LEUARTn_CTRL is set. To make sure the DMA controller still transfers bits to and from the LEUART in low energy modes, these bits must thus be configured accordingly. Note When RXDMAWU or TXDMAWU is set, the system will not be able to go to EM2/EM3 before all related LEUART DMA requests have been processed. This means that if RXDMAWU is set and the LEUART receives a frame, the system will not be able to go to EM2/EM3 before the frame has been read from the LEUART. In order for the system to go to EM2 during the last byte transmission, LEUART_CTRL_TXDMAWU must be cleared in the DMA interrupt service routine. This is because TXBL will be high during that last byte transfer. 18.3.10 Pulse Generator/ Pulse Extender The LEUART has an optional pulse generator for the transmitter output, and a pulse extender on the receiver input. These are enabled by setting PULSEEN in LEUARTn_PULSECTRL, and with INV in LEUARTn_CTRL set, they will change the output/input format of the LEUART from NRZ to RZI as shown in Figure 18.7 (p. 234) . Figure 18.7. LEUART - NRZ vs. RZI Idle NRZ Idle S 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 P S top RZI If PULSEEN in LEUARTn_PULSECTRL is set while INV in LEUARTn_CTRL is cleared, the output waveform will like RZI shown in Figure 18.7 (p. 234) , only inverted. The width of the pulses from the pulse generator can be configured using PULSEW in LEUARTn_PULSECTRL. The generated pulse width is PULSEW + 1 cycles of the 32.768 kHz clock, which makes pulse width from 31.25s to 500s possible. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 234 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Since the incoming signal is only sampled on positive clock edges, the width of the incoming pulses must be at least two 32.768 kHz clock periods wide for reliable detection by the LEUART receiver. They must also be shorter than half a UART baud period. At 2400 baud/s or lower, the pulse generator is able to generate RZI pulses compatible with the IrDA physical layer specification. The external IrDA device must generate pulses of sufficient length for successful two-way communication. 18.3.10.1 Interrupts The interrupts generated by the LEUART are combined into one interrupt vector. If LEUART interrupts are enabled, an interrupt will be made if one or more of the interrupt flags in LEUARTn_IF and their corresponding bits in LEUART_IEN are set. 18.3.11 Register access Since this module is a Low Energy Peripheral, and runs off a clock which is asynchronous to the HFCORECLK, special considerations must be taken when accessing registers. Please refer to Section 5.3 (p. 19) for a description on how to perform register accesses to Low Energy Peripherals. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 235 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 18.4 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

Up-count: Counter counts up until it reaches the value in TIMERn_TOP, where it is reset to 0 before counting up again. 2. Down-count: The counter starts at the value in TIMERn_TOP and counts down. When it reaches 0, it is reloaded with the value in TIMERn_TOP. 3. Up/Down-count: The counter starts at 0 and counts up. When it reaches the value in TIMERn_TOP, it counts down until it reaches 0 and starts counting up again. 4. Quadrature Decoder: Two input channels where one determines the count direction, while the other pin triggers a clock event. The counter value can be read or written by software at any time by accessing the CNT field in TIMERn_CNT. 19.3.1.1 Events Overflow is set when the counter value shifts from TIMERn_TOP to the next value when counting up. In up-count mode the next value is 0. In up/down-count mode, the next value is TIMERn_TOP-1. Underflow is set when the counter value shifts from 0 to the next value when counting down. In downcount mode, the next value is TIMERn_TOP. In up/down-count mode the next value is 1. Update event is set on overflow in up-count mode and on underflow in down-count or up/down count mode. This event is used to time updates of buffered values. 19.3.1.2 Operation Figure 19.2 (p. 252) shows the hardware Timer/Counter control. Software can start or stop the counter by writing a 1 to the START or STOP bits in TIMERn_CMD. The counter value (CNT in TIMERn_CNT) can always be written by software to any 16-bit value. It is also possible to control the counter through either an external pin or PRS input. This is done through the input logic for the Compare/Capture Channel 0. The Timer/Counter allows individual actions (start, stop, reload) to be taken for rising and falling input edges. This is configured in the RISEA and FALLA fields in TIMERn_CTRL. The reload value is 0 in up-count and up/down-count mode and TOP in downcount mode. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 251 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers The RUNNING bit in TIMERn_STATUS indicates if the Timer is running or not. If the SYNC bit in TIMERn_CTRL is set, the Timer is started/stopped/reloaded (external pin or PRS) when any of the other timers are started/stopped/reloaded. The DIR bit in TIMERn_STATUS indicates the counting direction of the Timer at any given time. The counter value can be read or written by software through the CNT field in TIMERn_CNT. In Up/DownCount mode the count direction will be set to up if the CNT value is written by software. Figure 19.2.

The prescaler is stopped and reset when the timer is stopped. 19.3.1.3.2 Compare/ Capture Channel 1 Input The Timer can also be clocked by positive and/or negative edges on the Compare/Capture channel 1 input. This input can either come from the TIMn_CC1 pin or one of the PRS channels. The input signal 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 252 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers must not have a higher frequency than fHFPERCLK/3 when running from a pin input or a PRS input with FILT enabled in TIMERn_CCx_CTRL. When running from PRS without FILT, the frequency can be as high as fHFPERCLK. Note that when clocking the Timer from the same pulse that triggers a start (through RISEA/FALLA in TIMERn_CTRL), the starting pulse will not update the Counter Value. 19.3.1.3.3 Underflow/Overflow from Neighboring Timer All Timers are linked together (see Figure 19.4 (p. 253) ), allowing timers to count on overflow/underflow from the lower numbered neighbouring timers to form a 32-bit or 48-bit timer. Note that all timers must be set to same count direction and less significant timer(s) can only be set to count up or down. Figure 19.4. TIMER Connections Unde rflow TIMER2 Ove rflow Unde rflow TIMER1 TIMER0 Ove rflow 19.3.1.4 One-Shot Mode By default, the counter counts continuously until it is stopped. If the OSMEN bit is set in the TIMERn_CTRL register, however, the counter is disabled by hardware on the first update event. Note that when the counter is running with CC1 as clock source (0b01 in CLKSEL in TIMERn_CTRL) and OSMEN is set, a CC1 capture event will not take place on the update event (CC1 rising edge) that stops the Timer. 19.3.1.5 Top Value Buffer The TIMERn_TOP register can be altered either by writing it directly or by writing to the TIMER_TOPB (buffer) register. When writing to the buffer register the TIMERn_TOPB register will be written to TIMERn_TOP on the next update event. Buffering ensures that the TOP value is not set below the actual count value. The TOPBV flag in TIMERn_STATUS indicates whether the TIMERn_TOPB register contains data that have not yet been written to the TIMERn_TOP register (see Figure 19.5 (p. 253) . Figure 19.5.

The Quadrature Decoder uses two input channels that are 90 degrees out of phase (see Figure 19.6 (p. 254) ). 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 253 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 19.6.

The Timer/Counter then increments or decrements the counter, based on the phase relation between the two inputs. The Quadrature Decoder Mode supports two channels, but if a third channel (Z-terminal) is available, this can be connected to an external interrupt and trigger a counter reset from the interrupt service routine. By connecting a periodic signal from another timer as input capture on Compare/Capture Channel 2, it is also possible to calculate speed and acceleration. Figure 19.7.

Input Capture 2. Output Compare 3. PWM 19.3.2.1 Input Pin Logic Each Compare/Capture channel can be configured as an input source for the Capture Unit or as external clock source for the Timer (see Figure 19.10 (p. 256) ). Compare/Capture channels 0 and 1 are the inputs for the Quadrature Decoder Mode. The input channel can be filtered before it is used, which requires the input to remain stable for 5 cycles in a row before the input is propagated to the output. Figure 19.10. TIMER Input Pin Logic INS EL ICEDGE TIMn_CCx Input Ca pture x P RS cha nne ls Filte r P RS S EL FILT 19.3.2.2 Compare/Capture Registers The Compare/Capture channel registers are prefixed with TIMERn_CCx_, where the x stands for the channel number. Since the Compare/Capture channels serve three functions (input capture, compare, PWM), the behavior of the Compare/Capture registers (TIMERn_CCx_CCV) and buffer registers (TIMERn_CCx_CCVB) change depending on the mode the channel is set in. 19.3.2.2.1 Input Capture mode When running in Input Capture mode, TIMERn_CCx_CCV and TIMERn_CCx_CCVB form a FIFO buffer, and new capture values are added on a capture event, see Figure 19.11 (p. 257) . The first capture can always be read from TIMERn_CCx_CCV, and reading this address will load the next capture value into TIMERn_CCx_CCV from TIMERn_CCx_CCVB if it contains valid data. The CC value can be read without altering the FIFO contents by reading TIMERn_CCx_CCVP. TIMERn_CCx_CCVB can also be read without altering the FIFO contents. The ICV flag in TIMERn_STATUS indicates if there is a valid unread capture in TIMERn_CCx_CCV. In case a capture is triggered while both CCV and CCVB contain unread capture values, the buffer overflow interrupt flag (ICBOF in TIMERn_IF) will be set. New capture values will on overflow overwrite the value in TIMERn_CCx_CCVB.

In Compare mode the output can be configured to toggle, clear or set on compare match, overflow and underflow through the CMOA, COFOA and CUFOA fields in TIMERn_CCx_CTRL. TIMERn_CCx_CCV can be accessed directly or through the buffer register TIMERn_CCx_CCVB, see Figure 19.12 (p. 257) . When writing to the buffer register, the value in TIMERn_CCx_CCVB will be written to TIMERn_CCx_CCV on the next update event. This functionality ensures glitch free PWM outputs. The CCVBV flag in TIMERn_STATUS indicates whether the TIMERn_CCx_CCVB register contains data that have not yet been written to the TIMERn_CCx_CCV register. Note that when writing 0 to TIMERn_CCx_CCVB the CCV value is updated when the timer counts from 0 to 1. Thus, the compare match for the next period will not happen until the timer reaches 0 again on the way down. Figure 19.12.

In this mode, TIMERn_CCx_CCV is read-only. Together with the Compare/Capture Buffer Register (TIMERn_CCx_CCVB) the TIMERn_CCx_CCV form a double-buffered capture registers allowing two subsequent capture events to take place before a read-out is required.

For period capture, the Compare/Capture Channel 0 should then be set to input capture on a rising edge of the same input signal. To capture the width of a high pulse, the channel should be set to capture on a falling edge of the input signal. To start the measuring period on either a falling edge or measure the low pulse-width of a signal, opposite polarities should be chosen. Figure 19.14.

In compare mode, each compare channel can be configured to either set, clear or toggle the output on an event (compare match, overflow or underflow). The output from each channel is represented as an alternative function on the port it is connected to, which needs to be enabled for the CC outputs to propagate to the pins. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 258 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 19.15.

The COIST bit in TIMERn_CCx_CTRL is the initial state of the compare/PWM output. Also the resulting output can be inverted by setting OUTINV in TIMERn_CCx_CTRL. It is recommended to turn off the CC channel before configuring the output state to avoid any pulses on the output. The CC channel can be turned off by setting MODE to OFF in TIMER_CCx_CTRL.

The settings in the Compare Output Action configuration bits are ignored in PWM mode and PWM generation is only supported for up-count and up/down-count mode. 19.3.2.6 Up-count (Single-slope) PWM If the counter is set to up-count and the Compare/Capture channel is put in PWM mode, single slope PWM output will be generated (see Figure 19.18 (p. 260) ). In up-count mode the PWM period is TOP +1 cycles and the PWM output will be high for a number of cycles equal to TIMERn_CCx_CCV. This means that a constant high output is achieved by setting TIMER_CCx to TOP+1 or higher. The PWM resolution (in bits) is then given by Equation 19.3 (p. 260) . Figure 19.18.

Figure 19.20.

Transistors used in such a bridge often do not open/close instantaneously, and using the exact complementary inputs for the high and low side of a half-bridge may result in situations where both gates are open. This can give unnecessary current-draw and short circuit the power supply. The DTI unit provides dead-time insertion to deal with this problem. Figure 19.21. TIMER Triple Half-Bridge UH VH WH W V U UL VL WL For each of the 3 compare-match outputs of TIMER0, an additional complementary output is provided by the DTI unit. These outputs, named TIM0_CDTI0, TIM0_CDTI1 and TIM0_CDTI2 are provided to make control of e.g. 3-channel BLDC or PMAC motors possible using only a single timer, see Figure 19.22 (p. 262) . Figure 19.22.

In addition to providing the complementary outputs, the DTI unit then also overrides the compare match outputs from the timer. The DTI unit gives the rising edges of the PWM outputs and the rising edges of the complementary PWM outputs a configurable time delay. By doing this, the DTI unit introduces a dead-time where both the primary and complementary outputs in a pair are inactive as seen in Figure 19.23 (p. 263) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 262 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 19.23. TIMER Polarity of Both Signals are Set as Active-High Origina l P WM dt1 TIM0_CC0 dt2 TIM0_CDTI0 Dead-time is specified individually for the rising and falling edge of the original PWM. These values are shared across all the three PWM channels of the DTI unit. A single prescaler value is provided for the DTI unit, meaning that both the rising and falling edge dead-times share prescaler value. The prescaler divides the HFPERCLKTIMERn by a configurable factor between 1 and 1024, which is set in the DTPRESC field in TIMER0_DTTIME. The rising and falling edge dead-times are configured in DTRISET and DTFALLT in TIMER0_DTTIME to any number between 1-64 HFPERCLKTIMER0 cycles. 19.3.3.1 Output Polarity The value of the primary and complementary outputs in a pair will never be set active at the same time by the DTI unit. The polarity of the outputs can be changed however, if this is required by the application. The active values of the primary and complementary outputs are set by two the TIMER0_DTCTRL register. The DTIPOL bit of this register specifies the base polarity. If DTIPOL =0, then the outputs are active-high, and if DTIPOL = 1 they are active-low. The relative phase of the primary and complementary outputs is not changed by DTIPOL, as the polarity of both outputs is changed, see Figure 19.24 (p. 264) In some applications, it may be required that the primary outputs are active-high, while the complementary outputs are active-low. This can be accomplished by manipulating the DTCINV bit of the TIMER0_DTCTRL register, which inverts the polarity of the complementary outputs relative to the primary outputs. Example 19.1. TIMER DTI Example 1 DTIPOL = 0 and DTCINV = 0 results in outputs with opposite phase and active-high states. Example 19.2. TIMER DTI Example 2 DTIPOL = 1 and DTCINV = 1 results in outputs with equal phase. The primary output will be active-high, while the complementary will be active-low 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 263 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 19.24. TIMER Output Polarities Origina l P WM DTIP OL = 0 DTCINV = 0 TIM0_CC0 TIM0_CDTI0 DTIP OL = 1 DTCINV = 0 TIM0_CC0 TIM0_CDTI0 DTIP OL = 0 DTCINV = 1 TIM0_CC0 TIM0_CDTI0 DTIP OL = 1 DTCINV = 1 TIM0_CC0 TIM0_CDTI0 Output generation on the individual DTI outputs can be disabled by configuring TIMER0_DTOGEN. When output generation on an output is disabled, it will go to and stay in its inactive state. 19.3.3.2 PRS Channel as Source A PRS channel can optionally be used as input to the DTI module instead of the PWM output from the timer. Setting DTPRSEN in TIMER0_DTCTRL will override the source of the first DTI channel, driving TIM0_CC0 and TIM0_CDTI0, with the value on the PRS channel. The rest of the DTI channels will continue to be driven by the PWM output from the timer. The PRS channel to use is chosen by configuring DTPRSSEL in TIMER0_DTCTRL. Note that the timer must be running even when PRS is used as DTI source. The DTI prescaler, set by DTPRESC in TIMER0_DTTIME determines with which accuracy the DTI can DTPRESC insert dead-time into a PRS signal. The maximum dead-time error equals 2 clock cycles. With zero prescaling, the inserted dead-times are therefore accurate, but they may be inaccurate for larger prescaler settings. 19.3.3.3 Fault Handling The fault handling system of the DTI unit allows the outputs of the DTI unit to be put in a well-defined state in case of a fault. This hardware fault handling system makes a fast reaction to faults possible, reducing the possibility of damage to the system. The fault sources which trigger a fault in the DTI module are determined by TIMER0_DTFSEN. Any combination of the available error sources can be selected: * * * * PRS source 0, determined by DTPRS0FSEL in TIMER0_DTFC PRS source 1, determined by DTPRS1FSEL in TIMER0_DTFC Debugger Core Lockup 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 264 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers One or two PRS channels can be used as an error source. When PRS source 0 is selected as an error source, DTPRS0FSEL determines which PRS channel is used for this source. DTPRS1FSEL determines which PRS channel is selected as PRS source 1. Please note that for Core Lockup, the LOCKUPRDIS in RMU_CTRL must be set. Otherwise this will generate a full reset of the EFM32. 19.3.3.3.1 Action on Fault When a fault occurs, the bit representing the fault source is set in DTFS, and the outputs from the DTI unit are set to a well-defined state. The following options are available, and can be enabled by configuring DTFACT in TIMER0_DTFC: * Set outputs to inactive level * Clear outputs * Tristate outputs With the first option enabled, the output state in case of a fault depends on the polarity settings for the individual outputs. An output set to be active high will be set low if a fault is detected, while an output set to be active low will be driven high. When a fault occurs, the fault source(s) can be read out of TIMER0_DTFS. TIMER0_DTFS is organized in the same way as DTFSEN, with one bit for each source. 19.3.3.3.2 Exiting Fault State When a fault is triggered by the PRS system, software intervention is required to re-enable the outputs of the DTI unit. This is done by manually clearing TIMER0_DTFS. If the fault cause, determined by TIMER0_DTFS, is the debugger alone, the outputs can optionally be re-enabled when the debugger exits and the processor resumes normal operation. The corresponding bit in TIMER0_DTFS will in that case be cleared by hardware. The automatic start-up functionality can be enabled by setting DTDAS in TIMER0_DTCTRL. If more bits are still set in DTFS when the automatic start-up functionality has cleared the debugger bit, the DTI module does not exit the fault state. The fault state is only exited when all the bits in TIMER0_DTFS have been cleared. 19.3.3.4 Configuration Lock To prevent software errors from making changes to the DTI configuration, a configuration lock is available. Writing any value but 0xCE80 to LOCKKEY in TIMER0_DTLOCK results in TIMER0_DTFC, TIMER0_DTCTRL, TIMER0_DTTIME and TIMER0_ROUTE being locked for writing. To unlock the registers, write 0xCE80 to LOCKKEY in TIMER0_DTLOCK. The value of TIMER0_DTLOCK is 1 when the lock is active, and 0 when the registers are unlocked. 19.3.4 Debug Mode When the CPU is halted in debug mode, the timer can be configured to either continue to run or to be frozen. This is configured in DBGHALT in TIMERn_CTRL. 19.3.5 Interrupts, DMA and PRS Output The Timer has 5 output events: * Counter Underflow * Counter Overflow * Compare match or input capture (one per Compare/Capture channel) Each of the events has its own interrupt flag. Also, there is one interrupt flag for each Compare/Capture channel which is set on buffer overflow in capture mode. Buffer overflow happens when a new capture pushes an old unread capture out of the TIMERn_CCx_CCV/TIMERn_CCx_CCVB register pair. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 265 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers If the interrupt flags are set and the corresponding interrupt enable bits in TIMERn_IEN) are set high, the Timer will send out an interrupt request. Each of the events will also lead to a one HFPERCLKTIMERn cycle high pulse on individual PRS outputs. Each of the events will also set a DMA request when they occur. The different DMA requests are cleared when certain acknowledge conditions are met, see Table 19.3 (p. 266) . If DMACLRACT is set in TIMERn_CTRL, the DMA request is cleared when the triggered DMA channel is active, without having to access any timer registers. Table 19.3.

Each pin connection can be enabled/disabled separately by setting the corresponding CCxPEN or CDTIxPEN bits in TIMERn_ROUTE. The LOCATION bits in the same register can be used to move all enabled pins to alternate pins. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 266 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 19.4 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

The Real Time Counter (RTC) ensures timekeeping in low energy modes. Combined with two low power oscillators (XTAL or RC), the RTC can run in EM2 with total current consumption less than 0.9 A. 0 1 2 3 Why? Timekeeping over long time periods is required in many applications, while using as little power as possible. How? Selectable 32.768 Hz oscillators that can be used as clock source and two different compare registers that can trigger a wake-up. 24-bit resolution and selectable prescaling allow the system to stay in EM2 for a long time and still maintain reliable timekeeping. 0 1 2 3 20.1 Introduction The Real Time Counter (RTC) contains a 24-bit counter and is clocked either by a 32.768 Hz crystal oscillator, a 32.768 Hz RC oscillator. In addition to energy modes EM0 and EM1, the RTC is also available in EM2. This makes it ideal for keeping track of time since the RTC is enabled in EM2 where most of the device is powered down. Two compare channels are available in the RTC. These can be used to trigger interrupts and to wake the device up from a low energy mode. They can also be used with the LETIMER to generate various output waveforms. 20.2 Features * 24-bit Real Time Counter. * Prescaler N * 32.768 kHz/2 , N = 0 - 15. * Overflow @ 0.14 hours for prescaler setting = 0. * Overflow @ 4660 hours (194 days) for prescaler setting = 15 (1 s tick). * Two compare registers * A compare match can potentially wake-up the device from low energy modes EM1 and EM2. * Second compare register can be top value for RTC. * Both compare channels can trigger LETIMER. * Compare match events are available to other peripherals through the Peripheral Reflex System (PRS). 20.3 Functional Description The RTC is a 24-bit counter with two compare channels. The RTC is closely coupled with the LETIMER, and can be configured to trigger it on a compare match on one or both compare channels. An overview of the RTC module is shown in Figure 20.1 (p. 286) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 285 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 20.1.

It counts up as long as it is enabled, and will on an overflow simply wrap around and continue counting. The RTC is cleared when it is disabled. The timer value is both readable and writable and the RTC always starts counting from 0 when enabled. The value of the counter can be read or modified using the RTC_CNT register. 20.3.1.1 Clock Source The RTC clock source and its prescaler value are defined in the Register Description section of the Clock Management Unit (CMU). The clock used by the RTC has a frequency given by Equation 20.1 (p. 286) . RTC Frequency Equation RTC_PRESC fRTC = fLFACLK/2 (20.1) where fLFACLK is the LFACLK frequency (32.768 kHz) and RTC_PRESC is a 4 bit value. Table 20.1 (p. 287) shows the time of overflow and resolution of the RTC at the available prescaler values. To use this module, the LE interface clock must be enabled in CMU_HFCORECLKEN0 in addition to the module clock 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 286 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Table 20.1.

The compare values can be set by writing to the RTC compare channel registers RTC_COMPn, and when RTC_CNT is equal to one of these, the respective compare interrupt flag COMPn is set. If COMP0TOP is set, the compare value set for compare channel 0 is used as a top value for the RTC, and the timer is cleared on a compare match with compare channel 0. If using the COMP0TOP setting, make sure to set this bit prior to or at the same time the EN bit is set. Setting COMP0TOP after the EN bit is set may cause unintended operation (i.e. if CNT > COMP0). 20.3.2.1 LETIMER Triggers A compare event on either of the compare channels can start the LETIMER. See the LETIMER documentation for more information on this feature. 20.3.2.2 PRS Sources Both the compare channels of the RTC can be used as PRS sources. They will generate a pulse lasting one RTC clock cycle on a compare match. 20.3.3 Interrupts The interrupts generated by the RTC are combined into one interrupt vector. If interrupts for the RTC is enabled, an interrupt will be made if one or more of the interrupt flags in RTC_IF and their corresponding bits in RTC_IEN are set. Interrupt events are overflow and compare match on either compare channels. Clearing of an interrupt flag is performed by writing to the corresponding bit in the RTC_IFC register. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 287 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 20.3.4 Debugrun By default, the RTC is halted when code execution is halted from the debugger. By setting the DEBUGRUN bit in the RTC_CTRL register, the RTC will continue to run even when the debugger is halted. 20.3.5 Register access Since this module is a Low Energy Peripheral, and runs off a clock which is asynchronous to the HFCORECLK, special considerations must be taken when accessing registers.

Running on a 32.768 Hz clock the LETIMER is available in EM2 with sub A current consumption. 4 Why? The LETIMER can be used to provide repeatable waveforms to external components while remaining in EM2. It is well suited for e.g. metering systems or to provide more compare values than available in the RTC. RTC How? LETIMER With buffered repeat and top value registers, the LETIMER can provide glitch-free waveforms at frequencies up to 16 kHz. It is tightly coupled to the RTC, which allows advanced time-keeping and wake-up functions in EM2. 21.1 Introduction TM The unique LETIMER , the Low Energy Timer, is a 16-bit timer that is available in energy mode EM2, in addition to EM1 and EM0. Because of this, it can be used for timing and output generation when most of the device is powered down, allowing simple tasks to be performed while the power consumption of the system is kept at an absolute minimum. The LETIMER can be used to output a variety of waveforms with minimal software intervention. It is also connected to the Real Time Counter (RTC), and can be configured to start counting on compare matches from the RTC. 21.2 Features * * * * * * * * 16-bit down count timer 2 Compare match registers Compare register 0 can be top timer top value Compare registers can be double buffered Double buffered 8-bit Repeat Register Same clock source as the Real Time Counter LETIMER can be triggered (started) by an RTC event or by software 2 output pins can optionally be configured to provide different waveforms on timer underflow: * Toggle output pin * Apply a positive pulse (pulse width of one LFACLKLETIMER period) * PWM * Interrupt on: * Compare matches * Timer underflow 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 294 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Repeat done * Optionally runs during debug 21.3 Functional Description An overview of the LETIMER module is shown in Figure 21.1 (p. 295) . The LETIMER is a 16-bit down-counter with two compare registers, LETIMERn_COMP0 and LETIMERn_COMP1. The LETIMERn_COMP0 register can optionally act as a top value for the counter. The repeat counter LETIMERn_REP0 allows the timer to count a specified number of times before it stops. Both the LETIMERn_COMP0 and LETIMERn_REP0 registers can be double buffered by the LETIMERn_COMP1 and LETIMERn_REP1 registers to allow continuous operation. The timer can generate a single pin output, or two linked outputs. P e riphe ra l bus Figure 21.1.

RUNNING in LETIMERn_STATUS is set as long as the timer is running. The timer can also be started on external signals, such as a compare match from the Real Time Counter. If START and STOP are set at the same time, STOP has priority, and the timer will be stopped. The timer value can be read using the LETIMERn_CNT register. The value cannot be written, but it can be cleared by setting the CLEAR command bit in LETIMERn_CMD. If the CLEAR and START commands are issued at the same time, the timer will be cleared, then start counting at the top value. 21.3.2 Compare Registers The LETIMER has two compare match registers, LETIMERn_COMP0 and LETIMERn_COMP1. Each of these compare registers are capable of generating an interrupt when the counter value 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 295 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers LETIMERn_CNT becomes equal to their value. When LETIMERn_CNT becomes equal to the value of LETIMERn_COMP0, the interrupt flag COMP0 in LETIMERn_IF is set, and when LETIMERn_CNT becomes equal to the value of LETIMERn_COMP1, the interrupt flag COMP1 in LETIMERn_IF is set. 21.3.3 Top Value If COMP0TOP in LETIMERn_CTRL is set, the value of LETIMERn_COMP0 acts as the top value of the timer, and LETIMERn_COMP0 is loaded into LETIMERn_CNT on timer underflow. Else, the timer wraps around to 0xFFFF. The underflow interrupt flag UF in LETIMERn_IF is set when the timer reaches zero. 21.3.3.1 Buffered Top Value If BUFTOP in LETIMERn_CTRL is set, the value of LETIMERn_COMP0 is buffered by LETIMERn_COMP1. In this mode, the value of LETIMERn_COMP1 is loaded into LETIMERn_COMP0 every time LETIMERn_REP0 is about to decrement to 0. This can for instance be used in conjunction with the buffered repeat mode to generate continually changing output waveforms. Write operations to LETIMERn_COMP0 have priority over buffer loads. 21.3.3.2 Repeat Modes By default, the timer wraps around to the top value or 0xFFFF on each underflow, and continues counting. The repeat counters can be used to get more control of the operation of the timer, including defining the number of times the counter should wrap around. Four different repeat modes are available, see Table 21.1 (p. 296) . Table 21.1. LETIMER Repeat Modes REPMODE Mode Description 00 Free The timer runs until it is stopped 01 One-shot The timer runs as long as LETIMERn_REP0 != 0. LETIMERn_REP0 is decremented at each timer underflow. 10 Buffered The timer runs as long as LETIMERn_REP0 != 0. LETIMERn_REP0 is decremented on each timer underflow. If LETIMERn_REP1 has been written, it is loaded into LETIMERn_REP0 when LETIMERn_REP0 is about to be decremented to 0. 11 Double The timer runs as long as LETIMERn_REP0 != 0 or LETIMERn_REP1 != 0. Both LETIMERn_REP0 and LETIMERn_REP1 are decremented at each timer underflow. The interrupt flags REP0 and REP1 in LETIMERn_IF are set whenever LETIMERn_REP0 or LETIMERn_REP1 are decremented to 0 respectively. REP0 is also set when the value of LETIMERn_REP1 is loaded into LETIMERn_REP0 in buffered mode. 21.3.3.2.1 Free Mode In the free running mode, the LETIMER acts as a regular timer, and the repeat counter is disabled. When started, the timer runs until it is stopped using the STOP command bit in LETIMERn_CMD. A state machine for this mode is shown in Figure 21.2 (p. 297) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 296 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 21.2.

When the clear command is used, LETIMERn_CNT is set to 0 and an underflow event will not be generated when LETIMERn_CNT wraps around to the top value or 0xFFFF. Since no underflow event is generated, no output action is performed. LETIMERn_REP0, LETIMERn_REP1, LETIMERn_COMP0 and LETIMERn_COMP1 are also left untouched. 21.3.3.2.2 One-shot Mode The one-shot repeat mode is the most basic repeat mode. In this mode, the repeat register LETIMERn_REP0 is decremented every time the timer underflows, and the timer stops when LETIMERn_REP0 goes from 1 to 0. In this mode, the timer counts down LETIMERn_REP0 times, i.e. the timer underflows LETIMERn_REP0 times. Note Note that write operations to LETIMERn_REP0 have priority over the decrementation operation. So if LETIMERn_REP0 is assigned a new value in the same cycle it was supposed to be decremented, it is assigned the new value instead of being decremented. LETIMERn_REP0 can be written while the timer is running to allow the timer to run for longer periods at a time without stopping.

When started, the timer runs LETIMERn_REP0 number of times. If LETIMERn_REP1 has been written since the last time it was used and it is nonzero, LETIMERn_REP1 is then loaded into LETIMERn_REP0, and counting continues the new number of times. The timer keeps going as long as LETIMERn_REP1 is updated with a nonzero value before LETIMERn_REP0 is finished counting down. If the timer is started when both LETIMERn_CNT and LETIMERn_REP0 are zero but LETIMERn_REP1 is non-zero, LETIMERn_REP1 is loaded into LETIMERn_REP0, and the counter counts the loaded number of times. The state machine for the one-shot repeat mode is shown in Figure 21.3 (p. 298) . Used in conjunction with a buffered top value, enabled by setting BUFTOP in LETIMERn_CTRL, the buffered mode allows buffered values of both the top and repeat values of the timer, and the timer can for instance be set to run 4 times with period 7 (top value 6), 6 times with period 200, then 3 times with period 50. A state machine for the buffered repeat mode is shown in Figure 21.4 (p. 299) . REP1USED shown in the state machine is an internal variable that keeps track of whether the value in LETIMERn_REP1 has been loaded into LETIMERn_REP0 or not. The purpose of this is that a value written to LETIMERn_REP1 should only be counted once. REP1USED is cleared whenever LETIMERn_REP1 is written. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 298 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 21.4.

The difference is that, where the one-shot mode counts as long as LETIMERn_REP0 is larger than 0, the double mode counts as long as either LETIMERn_REP0 or LETIMERn_REP1 is larger than 0. As an example, say LETIMERn_REP0 is 3 and LETIMERn_REP1 is 10 when the timer is started. If no further interaction is done with the timer, LETIMERn_REP0 will now be decremented 3 times, and LETIMERn_REP1 will be decremented 10 times. The timer counts a total of 10 times, and LETIMERn_REP0 is 0 after the first three timer underflows and stays at 0. LETIMERn_REP0 and LETIMERn_REP1 can be written at any time. After a write to either of these, the timer is guaranteed to underflow at least the written number of times if the timer is running. Use the Double repeat mode to generate output on both the LETIMER outputs at the same time. The state machine for this repeat mode can be seen in Figure 21.5 (p. 300) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 299 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 21.5.

The LFACLKLETIMERn has a frequency given by Equation 21.1 (p. 300) . LETIMER Clock Frequency LETIMERn fLFACKL_LETIMERn = 32.768/2 (21.1) where the exponent LETIMERn is a 4 bit value in the CMU_LFAPRESC0 register. To use this module, the LE interface clock must be enabled in CMU_HFCORECLKEN0, in addition to the module clock. 21.3.3.4 RTC Trigger The LETIMER can be configured to start on compare match events from the Real Time Counter (RTC). If RTCC0TEN in LETIMERn_CTRL is set, the LETIMER will start on a compare match on RTC compare channel 0. In the same way, RTCC1TEN in LETIMERn_CTRL enables the LETIMER to start on a compare match with RTC compare channel 1. Note The LETIMER can only use compare match events from the RTC if the LETIMER runs at a higher than or equal frequency than the RTC. Also, if the LETIMER runs at twice the frequency of the RTC, a compare match event in the RTC will trigger the LETIMER twice. Four times the frequency gives four consecutive triggers, etc. The LETIMER will only 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 300 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers continue running if triggered while it is running, so the multiple-triggering will only have an effect if you try to disable the RTC when it is being triggered. 21.3.3.5 Debug If DEBUGRUN in LETIMERn_CTRL is cleared, the LETIMER automatically stops counting when the CPU is halted during a debug session, and resumes operation when the CPU continues. Because of synchronization, the LETIMER is halted two clock cycles after the CPU is halted, and continues running two clock cycles after the CPU continues. RUNNING in LETIMERn_STATUS is not cleared when the LETIMER stops because of a debug-session. Set DEBUGRUN in LETIMERn_CTRL to allow the LETIMER to continue counting even when the CPU is halted in debug mode. 21.3.4 Underflow Output Action For each of the repeat registers, an underflow output action can be set. The configured output action is performed every time the counter underflows while the respective repeat register is nonzero. In PWM mode, the output is similarly only changed on COMP1 match if the repeat register is nonzero. As an example, the timer will perform 7 output actions if LETIMERn_REP0 is set to 7 when starting the timer in one-shot mode and leaving it untouched for a while. The output actions can be set by configuring UFOA0 and UFOA1 in LETIMERn_CTRL. UFOA0 defines the action on output 0, and is connected to LETIMERn_REP0, while UFOA1 defines the action on output 1 and is connected to LETIMERn_REP1. The possible actions are defined in Table 21.2 (p. 301) . Table 21.2. LETIMER Underflow Output Actions UF0A0/UF0A1 Mode Description 00 Idle The output is held at its idle value 01 Toggle The output is toggled on LETIMERn_CNT underflow if LEIMERn_REPx is nonzero 10 Pulse The output is held active for one clock cycle on LETIMERn_CNT underflow if LETIMERn_REPx is nonzero. It then returns to its idle value 11 PWM The output is set idle on LETIMERn_CNT underflow and active on compare match with LETIMERn_COMP1 if LETIMERn_REPx is nonzero. Note For the Pulse and PWM modes, the outputs will return to their idle states regardless of the state of the corresponding LETIMERn_REPx registers. They will only be set active if the LETIMERn_REPx registers are nonzero however. The polarity of the outputs can be set individually by configuring OPOL0 and OPOL1 in LETIMERn_CTRL. When these are cleared, their respective outputs have a low idle value and a high active value. When they are set, the idle value is high, and the active value is low. When using the toggle action, the outputs can be driven to their idle values by setting their respective CTO0/CTO1 command bits in LETIMERn_CTRL. This can be used to put the output in a well-defined state before beginning to generate toggle output, which may be important in some applications. The command bit can also be used while the timer is running. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 301 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Some simple waveforms generated with the different output modes are shown in Figure 21.6 (p. 302) . For the example, REPMODE in LETIMERn_CTRL has been cleared, COMP0TOP also in LETIMERn_CTRL has been set and LETIMERn_COMP0 has been written to 3. As seen in the figure, LETIMERn_COMP0 now decides the length of the signal periods. For the toggle mode, the period of the output signal is 2(LETIMERn_COMP0 + 1), and for the pulse modes, the periods of the output signals are LETIMERn_COMP0+1. Note that the pulse outputs are delayed by one period relative to the toggle output. The pulses come at the end of their periods. Figure 21.6.

The resulting behavior is pretty similar to that shown in Figure 6, but in this case, the timer stops after counting to zero LETIMERn_REP0 times. By using LETIMERn_REP0 the user has full control of the number of pulses/toggles generated on the output. Figure 21.7.

Figure 21.8 (p. 303) shows an example of this. UFOA0 and UFOA1 in LETIMERn_CTRL are configured for pulse output and the outputs are configured for low idle polarity. As seen in the figure, the number written to the repeat registers determine the number of pulses generated on each of the outputs. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 302 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 21.8.

LETIMER Triggered Output Generation If both LETIMERn_CNT and LETIMERn_REP0 are 0 in buffered mode, and COMP0TOP and BUFTOP in LETIMERn_CTRL are set, the values of LETIMERn_COMP1 and LETIMERn_REP1 are loaded into LETIMERn_CNT and LETIMERn_REP0 respectively when the timer is started. If no additional writes to LETIMERn_REP1 are done before the timer stops, LETIMERn_REP1 determines the number of pulses/ toggles generated on the output, and LETIMERn_COMP1 determines the period lengths. As the RTC can be used to start the LETIMER, the RTC and LETIMER can thus be combined to generate specific pulse-trains at given intervals. Software can update LETIMERn_COMP1 and LETIMERn_REP1 to change the number of pulses and pulse-period in each train, but if changes are not required, software does not have to update the registers between each pulse train. For the example in Figure 21.9 (p. 303) , the initial values cause the LETIMER to generate two pulses with 3 cycle periods, or a single pulse 3 cycles wide every time the LETIMER is started. After the output has been generated, the LETIMER stops, and is ready to be triggered again. Figure 21.9.

LETIMER Continuous Output Generation In some scenarios, it might be desired to make LETIMER generate a continuous waveform. Very simple constant waveforms can be generated without the repeat counter as shown in Figure 21.6 (p. 302) , but to generate changing waveforms, using the repeat counter and buffer registers can prove advantageous. For the example in Figure 21.10 (p. 304) , the goal is to produce a pulse train consisting of 3 sequences with the following properties: * 3 pulses with periods of 3 cycles * 4 pulses with periods of 2 cycles * 2 pulses with periods of 3 cycles Figure 21.10.

LETIMERn_COMP0 is set to 2 (cycles - 1), and LETIMERn_REP0 is set to 3 for the first sequence, and the second sequence is loaded into the buffer registers, i.e. COMP1 is set to 1 and LETIMERn_REP1 is set to 4. The LETIMER is set to trigger an interrupt when LETIMERn_REP0 is done by setting REP0 in LETIMERn_IEN. This interrupt is a good place to update the values of the buffers. Last but not least REPMODE in LETIMERn_CTRL is set to buffered mode, and the timer is started. In the interrupt routine the buffers are updated with the values for the third sequence. If this had not been done, the timer would have stopped after the second sequence. The final result is shown in Figure 21.10 (p. 304) . The pulse output is grouped to show which sequence generated which output. Toggle output is also shown in the figure. Note that the toggle output is not aligned with the pulse outputs. Note 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 304 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Multiple LETIMER cycles are required to write a value to the LETIMER registers. The example in Figure 21.10 (p. 304) assumes that writes are done in advance so they arrive in the LETIMER as described in the figure. Figure 21.11 (p. 305) shows an example where the LETIMER is started while LETIMERn_CNT is nonzero. In this case the length of the first repetition is given by the value in LETIMERn_CNT. Figure 21.11.

LETIMER PWM Output There are several ways of generating PWM output with the LETIMER, but the most straight-forward way is using the PWM output mode. This mode is enabled by setting UFOA0 or OFUA1 in LETIMERn_CTRL to 3. In PWM mode, the output is set idle on timer underflow, and active on LETIMERn_COMP1 match, so if for instance COMP0TOP = 1 and OPOL0 = 0 in LETIMERn_CTRL, LETIMERn_COMP0 determines the PWM period, and LETIMERn_LETIMERn_COMP1 determines the active period. The PWM period in PWM mode is LETIMERn_COMP0 + 1. There is no special handling of the case where LETIMERn_COMP1 > LETIMERn_COMP0, so if LETIMERn_COMP1 > LETIMERn_COMP0, the PWM output is given by the idle output value. This means that for OPOLx = 0 in LETIMERn_CTRL, the PWM output will always be 0 for at least one clock cycle, and for OPOLx = 1 LETIMERn_CTRL, the PWM output will always be 1 for at least one clock cycle. To generate a PWM signal using the full PWM range, invert OPOLx when LETIMERn_COMP1 is set to a value larger than LETIMERn_COMP0. 21.3.5.4 Interrupts Example 21.4. LETIMER PWM Output The interrupts generated by the LETIMER are combined into one interrupt vector. If the interrupt for the LETIMER is enabled, an interrupt will be made if one or more of the interrupt flags in LETIMERn_IF and their corresponding bits in LETIMER_IEN are set. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 305 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 21.3.6 Register access Since this module is a Low Energy Peripheral, and runs off a clock which is asynchronous to the HFCORECLK, special considerations must be taken when accessing registers.

The module has a quadrature mode which may be used to decode the speed and direction of a mechanical shaft. PCNT can operate in EM0EM3. Re loa d va lue Why? 0 The PCNT generates an interrupt after a specific number of pulses (or rotations), eliminating the need for timing- or I/O interrupts and CPU processing to measure pulse widths, etc. Inte rrupt Qua dra ture code How? PCNT uses the LFACLK or may be externally clocked from a pin. The module incorporates an 8-bit up/down-counter to keep track of incoming pulses or rotations. 22.1 Introduction The Pulse Counter (PCNT) can be used for counting incoming pulses on a single input or to decode quadrature encoded inputs. It can run from the internal LFACLK (EM0-EM2) while counting pulses on the PCNTn_S0IN pin or using this pin as an external clock source (EM0-EM3) that runs both the PCNT counter and register access. 22.2 Features * * * * * * * * 8-bit counter with reload register Single input oversampling up/down counter mode (EM0-EM2) Externally clocked single input pulse up/down counter mode (EM0-EM3) Externally clocked quadrature decoder mode (EM0-EM3) Interrupt on counter underflow and overflow Interrupt when a direction change is detected (quadrature decoder mode only) Optional pulse width filter Optional input inversion/edge detect select 22.3 Functional Description An overview of the PCNT module is shown in Figure 22.1 (p. 317) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 316 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 22.1.

The following sections describe operation of each of the three modes and how they are enabled. Input timing constraints are described in Section 22.3.3 (p. 319) and Section 22.3.4 (p. 320) . 22.3.1.1 Single Input Oversampling Mode This mode is enabled by writing OVSSINGLE to the MODE field in the PCNTn_CTRL register and disabled by writing DISABLE to the same field. LFACLK is configured from the registers in the Clock Management Unit (CMU), Chapter 11 (p. 94) . The optional pulse width filter is enabled by setting the FILT bit in the PCNTn_CTRL register. Additionally, the PCNTn_S0IN input may be inverted, so that falling edges are counted, by setting the EDGE bit in the PCNTn_CTRL register. PCNTn_S0IN is the only observed input in this mode. This input is sampled by the LFACLK and the number of detected positive or negative edges on PCNTn_S0IN appears in PCNTn_CNT. The counter may be configured to count down by setting the CNTDIR bit in PCNTn_CTRL. Default is to count up. Only the underflow (UF) and overflow (OF) interrupt flags are set in this mode. 22.3.1.2 Externally Clocked Single Input Counter Mode This mode is enabled by writing EXTCLKSINGLE to the MODE field in the PCNTn_CTRL register and disabled by writing DISABLE to the same field. The external pin clock source must be configured from the registers in the CMU (Chapter 11 (p. 94) ). Positive edges on PCNTn_S0IN are used to clock the counter. PCNTn_S1IN is ignored in this mode. As the LFACLK is not used in this mode, the PCNT module can operate in EM3. Like in the oversampling mode, the counter may be configured to count down by writing 1 to the CNTDIR bit in the PCNTn_CTRL register. Default is to count up. The digital pulse width filter is not available in this mode. The analog de-glitch filter in the GPIO pads is capable of removing some unwanted noise. However, this mode may be susceptible to spikes and 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 317 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers unintended pulses from devices such as mechanical switches, and is therefore most suited to take input from electronic sensors etc. that generate single wire pulses. Only the underflow (UF) and overflow (OF) interrupt flags are set in this mode. 22.3.1.3 Externally Clocked Quadrature Decoder Mode This mode is enabled by writing EXTCLKQUAD to the MODE field in PCNTn_CTRL and disabled by writing DISABLE to the same field. The external pin clock source must be configured from the registers in the CMU, (Chapter 11 (p. 94) ). Both edges on PCNTn_S0IN pin are used to sample PCNTn_S1IN pin to decode the quadrature code. Consequently, this mode does not depend on the internal LFACLK and may be operated in EM3. A quadrature coded signal contains information about the relative speed and direction of a rotating shaft as illustrated by Figure 22.2 (p. 318) , hence the direction of the counter register PCNTn_CNT is controlled automatically.

Although the direction is automatically detected, the detected direction may be inverted by writing 1 to the EDGE bit in the PCNTn_CTRL register. Default behavior is illustrated by Figure 22.2 (p. 318) . The counter direction may be read from the DIR bit in the PCNTn_STATUS register. Additionally, the DIRCNG interrupt in the PCNTn_IF register is generated when a direction change is detected. When a change is detected, the DIR bit in the PCNTn_STATUS register must be read to determine the current new direction. Note The sector disc illustrated in the figure may be finer grained in some systems. Typically, they may generate 2-4 PCNTn_S0IN wave periods per 360 rotation. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 318 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers The direction of the quadrature code and control of the counter is generated by the simple binary function outlined by Table 22.1 (p. 319) . Note that this function also filters some invalid inputs that may occur when the shaft changes direction or temporarily toggles direction. Table 22.1.

To update the counter-clock domain registers from software in this mode, 2-3 clock pulses on the external clock are needed to synchronize accesses to the externally clocked domain. Clock source switching is controlled from the registers in the CMU (Chapter 11 (p. 94) ). When the RSTEN bit in the PCNTn_CTRL register is set to 1, the PCNT clock domain is asynchronously held in reset. The reset is synchronously released two PCNT clock edges after the RSTEN bit in the PCNTn_CTRL register is cleared by software. This asynchronous reset restores the reset values in PCNTn_TOP, PCNTn_CNT and other control registers in the PCNT clock domain. Since this module is a Low Energy Peripheral, and runs off a clock which is asynchronous to the HFCORECLK, special considerations must be taken when accessing registers. Please refer to Section 5.3 (p. 19) for a description on how to perform register accesses to Low Energy Peripherals. Note PCNTn_TOP and PCNTn_CNT are read-only registers. When writing to PCNTn_TOPB, make sure that the counter value, PCNTn_CNT, can not exceed the value written to PCNTn_TOPB within two clock cycles. 22.3.3 Clock Sources The 32 kHz LFACLK is one of two possible clock sources. The clock select register is described in Chapter 11 (p. 94) . The default clock source is the LFACLK. This PCNT module may also use PCNTn_S0IN as an external clock to clock the counter (EXTCLKSINGLE mode) and to sample PCNTn_S1IN (EXTCLKQUAD mode). Setup, hold and max frequency constraints for PCNTn_S0IN and PCNTn_S1IN for these modes are specified in the device datasheet. To use this module, the LE interface clock must be enabled in CMU_HFCORECLKEN0, in addition to the module clock. Note PCNT Clock Domain Reset, RSTEN, should be set when changing clock source for PCNT. In addition to this, the PCNTn_SYNCBUSY value should be zero. If changing to an external clock source, the clock pin has to be enabled as input prior to de-asserting RSTEN. Changing clock source without asserting RSTEN results in undefined behaviour. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 319 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 22.3.4 Input Filter An optional pulse width filter is available in OVSSINGLE mode. The filter is enabled by writing 1 to the FILT bit in the PCNTn_CTRL register. When enabled, the high and low periods of PCNTn_S0IN must be stable for 5 consecutive clock cycles before the edge is passed to the edge detector. In EXTCLKSINGLE and EXTCLKQUAD mode, there is no digital pulse width filter available. 22.3.5 Edge Polarity The edge polarity can be set by configuring the EDGE bit in the PCNTn_CTRL register. When this bit is cleared, the pulse counter counts positive edges in OVSSINGLE mode and negative edges if the bit is set. In EXTCLKQUAD mode, the EDGE bit in PCNTn_CTRL inverts the direction of the counter (which is automatically detected). Note The EDGE bit in PCNTn_CTRL has no effect in EXTCLKSINGLE mode. 22.3.6 PRS Sources The PCNT module does not generate or receive any PRS events. 22.3.7 Interrupts The interrupt generated by PCNT uses the PCNTn_INT interrupt vector. Software must read the PCNTn_IF register to determine which module interrupt that generated the vector invocation. 22.3.7.1 Underflow and Overflow Interrupts The underflow interrupt flag (UF) is set when the counter counts down from 0. I.e. when the value of the counter is 0 and a new pulse is received. The PCNTn_CNT register is loaded with the PCNTn_TOP value after this event. The overflow interrupt flag (OF) is set when the counter counts up from the PCNTn_TOP (reload) value. I.e. if PCNTn_CNT = PCNTn_TOP and a new pulse is received. The PCNTn_CNT register is loaded with the value 0 after this event. 22.3.7.2 Direction Change Interrupt The PCNTn_PCNT module sets the DIRCNG interrupt flag (PCNTn_IF register) when the direction of the quadrature code changes.

The ACMP (Analog Comparator) compares two analog signals and returns a digital value telling which is greater. 0 1 2 3 4 Why? Applications often do not need to know the exact value of an analog signal, only if it has passed a certain threshold. Often the voltage must be monitored continuously, which requires extremely low power consumption. How? Available down to Energy Mode 3 and using as little as 100 nA, the ACMP can wake up the system when input signals pass the threshold. The analog comparator can compare two analog signals or one analog signal and a highly configurable internal reference. 23.1 Introduction The Analog Comparator is used to compare the voltage of two analog inputs, with a digital output indicating which input voltage is higher. Inputs can either be one of the selectable internal references or from external pins. Response time and thereby also the current consumption can be configured by altering the current supply to the comparator. 23.2 Features * 8 selectable external positive inputs * 8 selectable external negative inputs * 3 selectable internal negative inputs * Internal 1.25 V bandgap * Internal 2.5 V bandgap * VDD scaled by 64 selectable factors * Low power mode for internal VDD and bandgap references * Selectable hysteresis * 8 levels between 0 and 70 mV * Selectable response time * Asynchronous interrupt generation on selectable edges * Rising edge * Falling edge * Both edges * Operational in EM0-EM3 * Dedicated capacitive sense mode with up to 8 inputs * Adjustable internal resistor * Configurable inversion of comparator output * Configurable output when inactive 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 329 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Comparator output direct on PRS * Comparator output on GPIO through alternate functionality * Output inversion available 23.3 Functional Description An overview of the ACMP is shown in Figure 23.1 (p. 330) .

When the comparator is active, the output indicates which of the two input voltages is higher. When the voltage on the positive input is higher than the voltage on the negative input, the digital output is high and vice versa. The output of the comparator can be read in the ACMPOUT bit in ACMPn_STATUS. It is possible to switch inputs while the comparator is enabled, but all other configuration should only be changed while the comparator is disabled. 23.3.1 Warm-up Time The analog comparator is enabled by setting the EN bit in ACMPn_CTRL. When this bit is set, the comparator must stabilize before becoming active and the outputs can be used. This time period is called the warm-up time. The warm-up time is a configurable number of peripheral clock (HFPERCLK) cycles, set in WARMTIME, which should be set to at least 10 s but lengthens to up to 1ms if LPREF is enabled. The ACMP should always start in active mode and then enable the LPREF after warm-up time. When the comparator is enabled and warmed up, the ACMPACT bit in ACMPn_STATUS will indicate that the comparator is active. The output value when the comparator is inactive is set to the value in INACTVAL in ACMPn_CTRL (see Figure 23.1 (p. 330) ). An edge interrupt will be generated after the warm-up time if edge interrupt is enabled and the value set in INACTVAL is different from ACMPOUT after warm-up. One should wait until the warm-up period is over before entering EM2 or EM3, otherwise no comparator interrupts will be detected. EM1 can still be entered during warm-up. After the warm-up period is completed, interrupts will be detected in EM2 and EM3. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 330 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 23.3.2 Response Time There is a delay from when the actual input voltage changes polarity, to when the output toggles. This period is called the response time and can be altered by increasing or decreasing the bias current to the comparator through the BIASPROG, FULLBIASPROG and HALFBIAS fields in the ACMPn_CTRL register, as illustrated in Table 23.1 (p. 331) Setting the HALFBIAS bit in ACMPn_CTRL effectively halves the current. Setting a lower bias current will result in lower power consumption, but a longer response time. If the FULLBIAS bit is set, the highest hysteresis level should be used to avoid glitches on the output. Table 23.1.

When the hysteresis level is set above 0, the digital output will not toggle until the positive input voltage is at a voltage equal to the hysteresis level above or below the negative input voltage (see Figure 23.2 (p. 332) ). This feature can be used to filter out uninteresting input fluctuations around zero and only show changes that are big enough to breach the hysteresis threshold. Note that the ACMP current consumption will be influenced by the selected hysteresis level and in general decrease with increasing HYSTSEL values. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 331 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 23.2. 20 mV Hysteresis Selected In P OS In NEG +20mV In NEG In NEG -20mV Time ACMP OUT without hys te re s is ACMP OUT with hys te re s is 23.3.4 Input Selection The POSSEL and NEGSEL fields in ACMPn_INPUTSEL controls which signals are connected to the two inputs of the comparator. 8 external pins are available for both the negative and positive input. For the negative input, 3 additional internal reference sources are available; 1.25 V bandgap, 2.5V bandgap and VDD. The VDD reference can be scaled by a configurable factor, which is set in VDDLEVEL (in ACMPn_INPUTSEL) according to the following formula: VDD Scaled VDD_SCALED = VDDxVDDLEVEL/63 (23.1) A low power reference mode can be enabled by setting the LPREF bit in ACMPn_INPUTSEL. In this mode, the power consumption in the reference buffer (VDD and bandgap) is lowered at the cost of accuracy. Low power mode will only save power if VDD with VDDLEVEL higher than 0 or a bandgap reference is selected. Normally the analog comparator input mux is disabled when the EN (in ACMPn_CTRL) bit is set low. However if the MUXEN bit in ACMPn_CTRL is set, the mux is enabled regardless of the EN bit. This will minimize kickback noise on the mux inputs when the EN bit is toggled. 23.3.5 Capacitive Sense Mode The analog comparator includes specialized hardware for capacitive sensing of passive push buttons. Such buttons are traces on PCB laid out in a way that creates a parasitic capacitor between the button and the ground node. Because a human finger will have a small intrinsic capacitance to ground, the capacitance of the button will increase when the button is touched. The capacitance is measured by including the capacitor in a free-running RC oscillator (see Figure 23.3 (p. 333) ). The frequency produced will decrease when the button is touched compared to when it is not touched. By measuring the output frequency with a timer (e.g. through PRS), the change in capacitance can be calculated. The analog comparator contains a complete feedback loop including an optional internal resistor. This resistor is enabled by setting the CSRESEN bit in ACMPn_INPUTSEL. The resistance can be set to one of four values by configuring the CSRESSEL bits in ACMPn_INPUTSEL. If the internal resistor is not enabled, the circuit will be open. The capacitive sense mode is enabled by setting the NEGSEL field in ACMPn_INPUTSEL to CAPSENSE. The input pin is selected through the POSSEL bits in ACMPn_INPUTSEL. The scaled VDD in Figure 23.3 (p. 333) can be altered by configuring the VDDLEVEL in ACMPn_INPUTSEL. It is recommended to set the hysteresis (HYSTSEL in ACMPn_CTRL) higher than the lowest level when using the analog comparator in capacitive sense mode. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 332 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 23.3. Capacitive Sensing Set-up Buttons P OS S EL VDD_S CALED VDD/4 23.3.6 Interrupts and PRS Output The analog comparator includes an edge triggered interrupt flag (EDGE in ACMPn_IF). If either IRISE and/or IFALL in ACMPn_CTRL is set, the EDGE interrupt flag will be set on rising and/or falling edge of the comparator output, respectively. An interrupt request will be sent if the EDGE interrupt flag in ACMPn_IF is set and enabled through the EDGE bit in ACMPn_IEN. The edge interrupt can also be used to wake up the device from EM3-EM1. The analog comparator also includes an interrupt flag, WARMUP in ACMPn_IF, which is set when a warm-up sequence has finished. An interrupt request will be sent if the WARMUP interrupt flag in ACMPn_IF is set and enabled through the WARMUP bit in ACMPn_IEN. The comparator output is also available as a PRS signal. 23.3.7 Output to GPIO The output from the comparator is available as alternate function to the GPIO pins. Set the ACMPPEN bit in ACMPn_ROUTE to enable output to pin, and the LOCATION bits to select output location. The GPIO-pin must also be set as output.

Why? VDD The VCMP can be used for simple power supply monitoring, e.g. for a battery level indicator. Ba tte ry VCMP VDD > X ? VDD < X ? How? Inte rrupts The scaled power supply is compared to a programmable reference voltage, and an interrupt can be generated when the supply is higher or lower than the reference. The VCMP can also be duty-cycled by software to further reduce the energy consumption. GND 24.1 Introduction The Voltage Supply Comparator is used to monitor the supply voltage from software. An interrupt can be generated when the supply falls below or rises above a programmable threshold. Note Note that VCMP comes in addition to the Power-on Reset and Brown-out Detector peripherals, that both generate reset signals when the voltage supply is insufficient for reliable operation. VCMP does not generate reset, only interrupt. Also note that the ADC is capable of sampling the input voltage supply. 24.2 Features * * * * * * * * * * Voltage supply monitoring Scalable VDD in 64 steps selectable as positive comparator input Internal 1.25 V bandgap reference Low power mode for internal VDD and bandgap references Selectable hysteresis * 0 or 20 mV Selectable response time Asynchronous interrupt generation on selectable edges * Rising edge * Falling edge * Rising and Falling edges Operational in EM0-EM3 Comparator output direct on PRS Configurable output when inactive to avoid unwanted interrupts 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 340 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 24.3 Functional Description An overview of the VCMP is shown in Figure 24.1 (p. 341) . Figure 24.1. VCMP Overview Wa rmup inte rrupt TRIGLEVEL EN Wa rm-up counte r VCMP ACT Edge inte rrupt VDD S ca le r 1 0 VCMP OUT INACTVAL BIAS P ROG HALFBIAS HYS TEN P RS LP REF Re a d/Write re gis te rs 1.25V Re a d only re gis te r The comparator has two analog inputs, one positive and one negative. When the comparator is active, the output indicates which of the two input voltages is higher. When the voltage on the positive input is higher than the negative input voltage, the digital output is high and vice versa. The output of the comparator can be read in the VCMPOUT bit in VCMP_STATUS. Configuration registers should only be changed while the comparator is disabled. 24.3.1 Warm-up Time VCMP is enabled by setting the EN bit in VCMP_CTRL. When this bit is set, the comparator must stabilize before becoming active and the outputs can be used. This time period is called the warm-up time. The warm-up time is a configurable number of HFPERCLK cycles, set in WARMTIME, which should be set to at least 10 s. When the comparator is enabled and warmed up, the VCMPACT bit in VCMP_STATUS will be set to indicate that the comparator is active. As long as the comparator is not enabled or not warmed up, VCMPACT will be cleared and the comparator output value is set to the value in INACTVAL in VCMP_CTRL. One should wait until the warm-up period is over before entering EM2 or EM3, otherwise no comparator interrupts will be detected. EM1 can still be entered during warm-up. After the warm-up period is completed, interrupts will be detected in EM2 and EM3. 24.3.2 Response Time There is a delay from when the actual input voltage changes polarity, to when the output toggles. This period is called the response time and can be altered by increasing or decreasing the bias current to the comparator through the BIAS and HALFBIAS fields in VCMP_CTRL as shown in Table 24.1 (p. 341) . Setting a lower bias current will result in lower power consumption, but a longer response time. Table 24.1.

When HYSTEN is set, the digital output will not toggle until the positive input voltage is at least 20mV above or below the negative input voltage. This feature can be used to filter out uninteresting input fluctuations around zero and only show changes that are big enough to breach the hysteresis threshold. Figure 24.2. VCMP 20 mV Hysteresis Enabled In P OS In NEG +20mV In NEG In NEG -20mV Time VCMP OUT without hys te re s is VCMP OUT with hys te re s is 24.3.4 Input Selection The positive comparator input is always connected to the scaled power supply input. The negative comparator input is connected to the internal 1.25 V bandgap reference. The VDD trigger level can be configured by setting the TRIGLEVEL field in VCMP_CTRL according to the following formula: VCMP VDD Trigger Level VDD Trigger Level= 1.667V + 0.034V x TRIGLEVEL (24.1) A low power reference mode can be enabled by setting the LPREF bit in VCMP_INPUTSEL. In this mode, the power consumption in the reference buffer (VDD and bandgap) is lowered at the cost of accuracy. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 342 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 24.3.5 Interrupts and PRS Output The VCMP includes an edge triggered interrupt flag (EDGE in VCMP_IF). If either IRISE and/or IFALL in VCMPn_CTRL is set, the EDGE interrupt flag will be set on rising and/or falling edge of the comparator output respectively. An interrupt request will be sent if the EDGE interrupt flag in VCMP_IF is set and enabled through the EDGE bit in VCMPn_IEN. The edge interrupt can also be used to wake up the device from EM3-EM1. VCMP also includes an interrupt flag, WARMUP in VCMP_IF, which is set when a warm-up sequence has finished. An interrupt request will be sent if the WARMUP interrupt flag in VCMP_IF is set and enabled through the WARMUP bit in VCMPn_IEN.

Note that the resulting ADC_CLK should not be set to a higher frequency than 13 MHz and not lower than 32 kHz. The BIASPROG bitfield must be set based on the ADC_CLK frequency. See the specific device data sheet for more information on these settings. 25.3.2 Conversions A conversion consists of two phases. The input is sampled in the acquisition phase before it is converted to digital representation during the approximation phase. The acquisition time can be configured independently for scan and single conversions (see Section 25.3.7 (p. 354) ) by setting AT in ADCn_SINGLECTRL/ADCn_SCANCTRL. The acquisition times can be set to any integer power of 2 from 1 to 256 ADC_CLK cycles. Note For high impedance sources the acquisition time should be adjusted to allow enough time for the internal sample capacitor to fully charge. The minimum acquisition time for the internal temperature sensor and Vdd/3 is given in the electrical characteristics for the device. The analog to digital converter core uses one clock cycle per output bit in the approximation phase. ADC Total Conversion Time (in ADC_CLK cycles) Per Output Tconv= (TA+N) x OSR (25.1) TA equals the number of acquisition cycles and N is the resolution. OSR is the oversampling ratio (see Section 25.3.7.7 (p. 356) ). The minimum conversion time is 7 ADC_CYCLES with 6 bit resolution and 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 350 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 13 ADC_CYCLES with 12 bit resolution. The maximum conversion time is 1097728 ADC_CYCLES with the longest acquisition time, 12 bit resolution and highest oversampling rate. Figure 25.2.

This time period is called the warm-up time. When enabling the ADC or changing references between samples, the ADC is automatically warmed up for 1s and an additional 5 s if the bandgap is selected as reference. Normally, the ADC will be warmed up only when samples are requested and is shut off when there are no more samples waiting. However, if lower latency is needed, configuring the WARMUPMODE field in ADCn_CTRL allows the ADC and/or reference to stay warm between samples, eliminating the need for warm-up. Figure 25.3 (p. 352) shows the analog power consumption in scenarios using the different WARMUPMODE settings. Only the bandgap reference selected for scan mode can be kept warm. If a different bandgap reference is selected for single mode, the warm-up time still applies. * NORMAL: ADC and references are shut off when there are no samples waiting. a) in Figure 25.3 (p. 352) shows this mode used with an internal bandgap reference. Figure d) shows this mode when using VDD or an external reference. * FASTBG: Bandgap warm-up is eliminated, but with reduced reference accuracy. d) in Figure 25.3 (p. 352) shows this mode used with an internal bandgap reference. * KEEPSCANREFWARM: The reference selected for scan mode is kept warm. The ADC will still need to be warmed up before conversion. b) in Figure 25.3 (p. 352) shows this mode used with an internal bandgap reference. * KEEPADCWARM: The ADC and the reference selected for scan mode is kept warm. c) in Figure 25.3 (p. 352) shows this mode used with an internal bandgap reference. The minimum warm-up times are given in s. The timing is done automatically by the ADC, given that a proper time base is given in the TIMEBASE bits in ADCn_CTRL. The TIMEBASE must be set to the number of HFPERCLK which corresponds to at least 1 s. The TIMEBASE only affects the timing of the warm-up sequence and not the ADC_CLK. When entering Energy Modes 2 or 3, the ADC must be stopped and WARMUPMODE in ADCn_CTRL written to 0. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 351 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 25.3.

In addition, 6 single ended internal inputs can be selected. The available selections are given in the register description for ADCn_SINGLECTRL and ADCn_SCANCTRL. For offset calibration purposes it is possible to internally short the differential ADC inputs and thereby measure a 0 V differential. Differential 0 V is selected by writing the DIFF bit to 1 and INPUTSEL to 4 in ADCn_SINGLECTRL. Calibration is described in detail in Section 25.3.10 (p. 358) . Note When VDD/3 is sampled, the acquisition time should be above a lower limit. The reader is referred to the datasheet for minimum VDD/3 acquisition time. 25.3.4.1 Input Filtering The selected input signal can be filtered, either through an internal low pass RC filter or an internal decoupling capacitor. The different filter configurations can be enabled through the LPFMODE bits in ADCn_CTRL. For maximum SNR, LPFMODE is recommended set to DECAP, with a cutoff frequency of 31.5 MHz. The RC input filter configuration is given in Figure 25.4 (p. 353) . The resistance and capacitance values are given in the electrical characteristics for the device, named RADCFILT and CADCFILT respectively. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 352 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 25.4. ADC RC Input Filter Configuration Input ADC R C 25.3.4.2 Temperature Measurement The ADC includes an internal temperature sensor. This sensor is characterized during production and the temperature readout from the ADC at production temperature, ADC0_TEMP_0_READ_1V25, is given in the Device Information (DI) page. The production temperature, CAL_TEMP_0, is also given in this page. The temperature gradient, TGRAD_ADCTH (mV/degree Celsius), for the sensor is found in the datasheet for the devices. By selecting 1.25 V internal reference and measuring the internal temperature sensor with 12 bit resolution, the temperature can be calculated according to the following formula: ADC Temperature Measurement TCELSIUS=CAL_TEMP_0-(ADC0_TEMP_0_READ_1V25ADC_result)xVref/(4096xTGRAD_ADCTH) (25.2) Note The minimum acquisition time for the temperature reference is found in the electrical characteristics for the device. 25.3.5 Reference Selection The reference voltage can be selected from these sources: * * * * * * * * * 1.25 V internal bandgap. 2.5 V internal bandgap. VDD. 5 V internal differential bandgap. External single ended input from Ch. 6. Differential input, 2x(Ch. 6 - Ch. 7). Unbuffered 2xVDD. The 2.5 V reference needs a supply voltage higher than 2.5 V. The differential 5 V reference needs a supply voltage higher than 2.75 V. Since the 2xVDD differential reference is unbuffered, it is directly connected to the ADC supply voltage and more susceptible to supply noise. The VDD reference is buffered both in single ended and differential mode. If a differential reference with a larger range than the supply voltage is combined with single ended measurements, for instance the 5 V internal reference, the full ADC range will not be available because the maximum input voltage is limited by the maximum electrical ratings. Note Single ended measurements with the external differential reference are not supported. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 353 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 25.3.6 Programming of Bias Current The bias current of the bandgap reference and the ADC comparator can be scaled by the BIASPROG, HALFBIAS and COMPBIAS bit fields of the ADCn_BIASPROG register. The BIASPROG and HALFBIAS bitfields scale the current of ADC bandgap reference, and the COMPBIAS bits provide an additional bias programming for the ADC comparator as illustrated in Figure 25.5 (p. 354) . The electrical characteristics given in the datasheet require the bias configuration to be set to the default values, where no other bias values are given. Figure 25.5. ADC Bias Programming Re fe re nce Curre nt BIAS P ROG HALFBIAS COMP BIAS Inte rna l ba ndga p re fe re nce ADC Compa ra tor The BIASPROG bitfield must be set based on the ADC_CLK frequency. See the specific device data sheet for more information on these settings. The minimum value of the BIASPROG and COMPBIAS bitfields of the ADCn_BIASPROG register (i.e. BIASPROG=0b0000, COMPBIAS=0b0000) represent the minimum bias currents. Similarly BIASPROG=0b1111 and COMPBIAS=0b1111 represent the maximum bias currents. Additionally, the bias current defined by the BIASPROG setting can be halved by setting the HALFBIAS bit of the ADCn_BIASPROG register. The bias current settings should only be changed while the ADC is disabled. 25.3.7 ADC Modes The ADC contains two separate programmable modes, one single sample mode and one scan mode. Both modes have separate configuration and result registers and can be set up to run only once per trigger or repetitively. The scan mode has priority over the single sample mode. However, if scan sequence is running, a triggered single sample will be interleaved between two scan samples. 25.3.7.1 Single Sample Mode The single sample mode can be used to convert a single sample either once per trigger or repetitively. The configuration of the single sample mode is done in the ADCn_SINGLECTRL register and the results are found in the ADCn_SINGLEDATA register. The SINGLEDV bit in ADCn_STATUS is set high when there is valid data in the result register and is cleared when the data is read. The single mode results can also be read through ADCn_SINGLEDATAP without SINGLEDV being cleared. DIFF in ADCn_SINGLECTRL selects whether differential or single ended inputs are used and INPUTSEL selects input pin(s). 25.3.7.2 Scan mode The scan mode is used to perform sweeps of the inputs. The configuration of the scan sequence is done in the ADCn_SCANCTRL register and the results are found in the ADCn_SCANDATA register. The SCANDV bit in ADCn_STATUS is set high when there is valid data in the result register and is cleared when the data is read. The scan mode results can also be read through ADCn_SCANDATAP without 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 354 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers SCANDV being cleared. The inputs included in the sequence are defined by a the mask in INPUTMASK in ADCn_SCANCTRL. When the scan sequence is triggered, the sequence samples all inputs that are included in the mask, starting at the lowest pin number. DIFF in ADCn_SCANCTRL selects whether single ended or differential inputs are used. 25.3.7.3 Conversion Tailgating The scan sequence has priority over the single sample mode. However, a scan trigger will not interrupt in the middle of a single conversion. If a scan sequence is triggered by a timer on a periodic basis, single sample just before a scan trigger can delay the start of the scan sequence, thus causing jitter in sample rate. To solve this, conversion tailgating can be chosen by setting TAILGATE in ADCn_CTRL. When this bit is set, any triggered single samples will wait for the next scan sequence to finish before activating (see Figure 25.6 (p. 355) ). The single sample will then follow immediately after the scan sequence. In this way, the scan sequence will always start immediately when triggered, if the period between the scan triggers is big enough to allow any single samples that might be triggered to finish in between the scan sequences. Figure 25.6. ADC Conversion Tailgating ADC a ction S ca n S ingle S ca n S ingle S ca n S CANS TART S INGLES TART S CANACT S INGLEACT 25.3.7.4 Conversion Trigger The conversion modes can be activated by writing a 1 to the SINGLESTART or SCANSTART bit in the ADCn_CMD register. The conversions can be stopped by writing a 1 to the SINGLESTOP or SCANSTOP bit in the ADCn_CMD register. A START command will have priority over a stop command. When the ADC is stopped in the middle of a conversion, the result buffer is cleared. The SINGLEACT and SCANACT bits in ADCn_STATUS are set high when the modes are actively converting or have pending conversions. It is also possible to trigger conversions from PRS signals. The system requires one HFPERCLK cycle pulses to trigger conversions. Setting PRSEN in ADCn_SINGLECTRL/ADCn_SCANCTRL enables triggering from PRS input. Which PRS channel to listen to is defined by PRSSEL in ADCn_SINGLECTRL/ADCn_SCANCTRL. When PRS trigger is selected, it is still possible to trigger the conversion from software. The reader is referred to the PRS datasheet for more information on how to set up the PRS channels. Note The conversion settings should not be changed while the ADC is running as this can lead to unpredictable behavior. The prescaled clock phase is always reset by a triggered conversion as long as a conversion is not ongoing. This gives predictable latency from the time of the trigger to the time the conversion starts, regardless of when in the prescaled clock cycle the trigger occur. 25.3.7.5 Results The results are presented in 2's complement form and the format for differential and single ended mode is given in Table 25.1 (p. 356) and Table 25.2 (p. 356) . If differential mode is selected, the results are sign extended up to 32-bit (shown in Table 25.4 (p. 357) ). 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 355 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Table 25.1.

However, if full 12-bit resolution is not needed, it is possible to speed up the conversion by selecting a lower resolution (N = 6 or 8 bits). For more information on the accuracy of the ADC, the reader is referred to the electrical characteristics section for the device. 25.3.7.7 Oversampling To achieve higher accuracy, hardware oversampling can be enabled individually for each mode (Set RES in ADCn_SINGLECTRL/ADCn_SCANCTRL to 0x3). The oversampling rate (OVSRSEL in ADCn_CTRL) can be set to any integer power of 2 from 2 to 4096 and the configuration is shared between the scan and single sample mode (OVSRSEL field in ADCn_CTRL). With oversampling, each selected input is sampled a number (given by the OVSR) of times, and the results are filtered by a first order accumulate and dump filter to form the end result. The data presented in the ADCn_SINGLEDATA and ADCn_SCANDATA registers are the direct contents of the accumulation register (sum of samples). However, if the oversampling ratio is set higher than 16x, the accumulated results are shifted to fit the MSB in bit 15 as shown in Table 25.3 (p. 357) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 356 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Table 25.3.

In differential mode the signed bit is extended up to bit 31, but in single ended mode the bits above the result are read as 0. By setting ADJ in ADCn_SINGLECTRL/ADCn_SCANCTRL, the results are left adjusted as shown in Table 25.4 (p. 357) . When left adjusted, the MSB is always placed on bit 15 and sign extended to bit 31. All bits below the conversion result are read as 0 (zero). Left Right Resolution Adjustment Table 25.4.

Setting one of these flags will result in an ADC interrupt if the corresponding interrupt enable bit is set in ADCn_IEN. In addition to the finished conversion flags, there is a scan and single sample result overflow flag which signalizes that a result from a scan sequence or single sample has been overwritten before being read. A finished conversion will result in a one HFPERCLK cycle pulse which is output to the Peripheral Reflex System (PRS). 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 357 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 25.3.9 DMA Request The ADC has two DMA request lines, SINGLE and SCAN, which are set when a single or scan conversion has completed. The request are cleared when the corresponding single or scan result register is read. 25.3.10 Calibration The ADC supports offset and gain calibration to correct errors due to process and temperature variations. This must be done individually for each reference used. The ADC calibration (ADCn_CAL) register contains four register fields for calibrating offset and gain for both single and scan mode. The gain and offset calibration are done in single mode, but the resulting calibration values can be used for both single and scan mode. Gain and offset for the 1V25, 2V5 and VDD references are calibrated during production and the calibration values for these can be found in the Device Information page. During reset, the gain and offset calibration registers are loaded with the production calibration values for the 1V25 reference. The SCANGAIN and SINGLEGAIN calibration fields are not used when the unbuffered differential 2xVDD reference is selected. The effects of changing the calibration register values are given in Table 25.5 (p. 358) . Step by step calibration procedures for offset and gain are given in Section 25.3.10.1 (p. 358) and Section 25.3.10.2 (p. 358) . Table 25.5. Calibration Register Effect Calibration Register ADC Result Calibration Binary Value Calibration Hex Value Lowest Output 0111111 3F Highest Output 1000000 40 Lowest Output 0000000 00 Highest Output 1111111 7F Offset Gain The offset calibration register expects a signed 2's complement value with negative effect. A high value gives a low ADC reading. The gain calibration register expects an unsigned value with positive effect. A high value gives a high ADC reading. 25.3.10.1 Offset Calibration Offset calibration must be performed prior to gain calibration. Follow these steps for the offset calibration in single mode: 1. Select wanted reference by setting the REF bitfield of the ADCn_SINGLECTRL register. 2. Set the AT bitfield of the ADCn_SINGLECTRL register to 16CYCLES. 3. Set the INPUTSEL bitfield of the ADCn_SINGLECTRL register to DIFF0, and set the DIFF bitfield to 1 for enabling differential input. Since the input voltage is 0, the expected ADC output is the half of the ADC code range as it is in differential mode. 4. A binary search is used to find the offset calibration value. Set the SINGLESTART bit in the ADCn_CMD register and read the ADCn_SINGLEDATA register. The result of the binary search is written to the SINGLEOFFSET field of the ADCn_CAL register. 25.3.10.2 Gain Calibration Offset calibration must be performed prior to gain calibration. The Gain Calibration is done in the following manner: 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 358 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 1. Select an external ADC channel (a differential channel can also be used). 2. Apply an external voltage on the selected ADC input channel. This voltage should correspond to the top of the ADC range. 3. A binary search is used to find the gain calibration value. Set the SINGLESTART bit in the ADCn_CTRL register and read the ADCn_SINGLEDATA register. The target value is ideally the top of the ADC range, but it is recommended to use a value a couple of LSBs below in order to avoid overshooting. The result of the binary search is written to the SINGLEGAIN field of the ADCn_CAL register. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 359 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 25.4 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

Using DMA and a timer, the DAC can be used to generate waveforms without any CPU intervention. 26.1 Introduction The Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) can convert a digital value to an analog output voltage. The DAC is fully differential rail-to-rail, with 12-bit resolution. It has two single ended output buffers which can be combined into one differential output. The DAC may be used for a number of different applications such as sensor interfaces or sound output. 26.2 Features * 500 ksamples/s operation * Two single ended output channels * Can be combined into one differential output * Integrated prescaler with division factor selectable between 1-128 * Selectable voltage reference * Internal 2.5V * Internal 1.25V * VDD * Conversion triggers * Data write * PRS input * Automatic refresh timer * Selection from 16-64 prescaled HFPERCLK cycles * Individual refresh enable for each channel * Interrupt generation on finished conversion * Separate interrupt flag for each channel * PRS output pulse on finished conversion * Separate line for each channel * DMA request on finished conversion * Separate request for each channel * Support for offset and gain calibration 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 373 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Output to ADC * Sine generation mode * Optional high strength line driver 26.3 Functional Description An overview of the DAC module is shown in Figure 26.1 (p. 374) . Figure 26.1. DAC Overview CH0DATA Ch 0 DACn_OUT0 CH1DATA Ch 1 DACn_OUT1 1.25 V 2.5 V VDD ADC REFS EL 26.3.1 Conversions The DAC consists of two channels (Channel 0 and 1) with separate 12-bit data registers (DACn_CH0DATA and DACn_CH1DATA). These can be used to produce two independent single ended outputs or the channel 0 register can be used to drive both outputs in differential mode. The DAC supports three conversion modes, continuous, sample/hold, sample/off. 26.3.1.1 Continuous Mode In continuous mode the DAC channels will drive their outputs continuously with the data in the DACn_CHxDATA registers. This mode will maintain the output voltage and refresh is therefore not needed. 26.3.1.2 Sample/Hold Mode In sample/hold mode, the DAC core converts data on a triggered conversion and then holds the output in a sample/hold element. When not converting, the DAC core is turned off between samples, which reduces the power consumption. Because of output voltage drift the sample/hold element will only hold the output for a certain period without a refresh conversion. The reader is referred to the electrical characteristics for the details on the voltage drift. The sampling period in this mode is set to the length of one prescaled clock cycle. 26.3.1.3 Sample/Off Mode In sample/off mode the DAC and the sample/hold element is turned completely off between samples, tri-stating the DAC output. This requires the DAC output voltage to be held externally. The references are also turned off between samples, which means that a new warm-up period is needed before each conversion. The sampling period in this mode is set to the length of one prescaled clock cycle. 26.3.1.4 Conversion Start The DAC channel must be enabled before it can be used. When the channel is enabled, a conversion can be started by writing to the DACn_CHxDATA register. These data registers are also mapped into 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 374 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers a combined data register, DACn_COMBDATA, where the data values for both channels can be written simultaneously. Writing to this register will start all enabled channels. If the PRSEN bit in DACn_CHxCTRL is set, a DAC conversion on channel x will not be started by data write, but when a positive one HFPERCLK cycle pulse is received on the PRS input selected by PRSSEL in DACn_CHxCTRL. The CH0DV and CH1DV bits in DACn_STATUS indicate that the corresponding channel contains data that has not yet been converted. When entering Energy Modes 2,3 or 4, both DAC channels must be stopped. If the DAC is enabled for the first time after entering Energy Mode 2,3 or 4 the output of the DAC will be undefined. This can be worked around by enabling the DAC before entering a lower energy mode. The DAC channel can be enabled and the data registers written to even though the output is disabled. 26.3.1.5 Clock Prescaling The DAC has an internal clock prescaler, which can divide the HFPERCLK by any factor between 1 and 128, by setting the PRESC bits in DACnCTRL. The resulting DAC_CLK is used by the converter core and the frequency is given by Equation 26.1 (p. 375) : DAC Clock Prescaling PRESC fDAC_CLK = fHFPERCLK / 2 (26.1) where fHFPERCLK is the HFPERCLK frequency. One conversion takes 2 DAC_CLK cycles and the DAC_CLK should not be set higher than 1 MHz. Normally the PRESCALER runs continuously when either of the channels are enabled. When running with a prescaler setting higher than 0, there will be an unpredictable delay from the time the conversion was triggered to the time the actual conversion takes place. This is because the conversions is controlled by the prescaled clock and the conversion can arrive at any time during a prescaled clock (DAC_CLK) period. However, if the CH0PRESCRST bit in DACn_CTRL is set, the prescaler will be reset every time a conversion is triggered on channel 0. This leads to a predictable latency between channel 0 trigger and conversion. 26.3.2 Reference Selection Three internal voltage references are available and are selected by setting the REFSEL bits in DACn_CTRL: * Internal 2.5V * Internal 1.25V * VDD The reference selection can only be changed while both channels are disabled. The references for the DAC need to be enabled for some time before they can be used. This is called the warm-up period, and starts when one of the channels is enabled. For a bandgap reference, this period is 5 DAC_CLK cycles while the VDD reference needs 1 DAC_CLK cycle. The DAC will time this period automatically(given that the prescaler is set correctly) and delay any conversion triggers received during the warm-up until the references have stabilized. 26.3.3 Programming of Bias Current The bias current of the bandgap reference and the DAC output buffer can be scaled by the BIASPROG and HALFBIAS bit fields of the DACn_BIASPROG register as illustrated in Figure 26.2 (p. 376) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 375 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 26.2. DAC Bias Programming Re fe re nce Curre nt BIAS P ROG HALFBIAS Inte rna l ba ndga p re fe re nce DAC output buffe r The minimum value of the BIASPROG bit-field of the DACn_BIASPROG register (i.e. BIASPROG=0b0000) represents the minimum bias current. Similarly BIASPROG=0b1111 represents the maximum bias current. The bias current defined by the BIASPROG setting can be halved by setting the HALFBIAS bit of the DACn_BIASPROG register. The bias current settings should only be changed while both DAC channels are disabled. The electrical characteristics given in the datasheet require the bias configuration to be set to the default values, where no other bias values are given. 26.3.4 Mode The two DAC channels can act as two separate single ended channels or be combined into one differential channel. This is selected through the DIFF bit in DACn_CTRL. 26.3.4.1 Single Ended Output When operating in single ended mode, the channel 0 output is on DACn_OUT0 and the channel 1 output is on DACn_OUT1. The output voltage can be calculated using Equation 26.2 (p. 376) DAC Single Ended Output Voltage VOUT = VDACn_OUTx - VSS= Vref x CHxDATA/4095 (26.2) where CHxDATA is a 12-bit unsigned integer. 26.3.4.2 Differential Output When operating in differential mode, both DAC outputs are used as output for the bipolar voltage. The differential conversion uses DACn_CH0DATA as source. The positive output is on DACn_OUT1 and the negative output is on DACn_OUT0. Since the output can be negative, it is expected that the data is written in 2's complement form with the MSB of the 12-bit value being the signed bit. The output voltage can be calculated using Equation 26.3 (p. 376) : DAC Differential Output Voltage VOUT = VDACn_OUT1 - VDACn_OUT0= Vref x CH0DATA/2047 (26.3) where CH0DATA is a 12-bit signed integer. The common mode voltage is VDD/2. 26.3.5 Sine Generation Mode The DAC contains an automatic sine-generation mode, which is enabled by setting the SINEMODE bit in DACn_CTRL. In this mode, the DAC data is overridden with a conversion data taken from a sine lookup 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 376 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers table. The sine signal is controlled by the PRS line selected by CH0PRSSEL in DACn_CH0CTRL. When the PRS line is low, a voltage of Vref/2 will be produced. When the line is high, a sine wave will be produced. Each period, starting at 0 degrees, is made up of 16 samples and the frequency is given by Equation 26.4 (p. 377) : DAC Sine Generation PRESC fsine = fHFPERCLK / 32 x 2 (26.4) The SINE wave will be output on channel 0. If DIFF is set in DACn_CTRL, the sine wave will be output on both channels (if enabled), but inverted (see Figure 26.1 (p. 374) ). Note that when OUTENPRS in DACn_CTRL is set, the sine output will be reset to 0 degrees when the PRS line selected by CH1PRSSEL is low. Figure 26.3. DAC Sine Mode CH0 P RS CH1 P RS Vre f DACn_OUT1 Vre f/2 Hi-Z 0 Vre f DACn_OUT0 Hi-Z Vre f/2 0 26.3.6 Interrupts and PRS Output Both DAC channels have separate interrupt flags (in DACn_IF) indicating that a conversion has finished on the channel and that new data can be written to the data registers. Setting one of these flags will result in a DAC interrupt if the corresponding interrupt enable bit is set in DACn_IEN. All generated interrupts from the DAC will activate the same interrupt vector when enabled. The DAC has two PRS outputs which will carry a one cycle (HFPERCLK) high pulse when the corresponding channel has finished a conversion. 26.3.7 DMA Request The DAC sends out a DMA request when a conversion on a channel is complete. This request is cleared when the corresponding channel's data register is written. 26.3.8 Analog Output Each DAC channel has its own output pin (DACn_OUT0 and DACn_OUT1) in addition to an internal loopback to the ADC. These outputs can be enabled and disabled individually in the EN field in DACn_CHxCTRL registers in combination with OUTPUTSEL in DACn_CTRL. The DAC outputs can also be directed to the ADC, which is also configurable in the OUTPUTSEL field in DACn_CTRL. The DAC outputs are tri-stated when the channels are not enabled. By setting the OUTENPRS bit in DACn_CTRL, the outputs are also tri-stated when the PRS line selected by CH1PRSSEL in DACn_CH1CTRL is low. When the PRS signal is high, the outputs are enabled as normal. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 377 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 26.3.9 Calibration The DAC contains a calibration register, DACn_CAL, where calibration values for both offset and gain correction can be written. Offset calibration is done separately for each channel through the CHxOFFSET bit-fields. Gain is calibrated in one common register field, GAIN. The gain calibration is linked to the reference and when the reference is changed, the gain must be re-calibrated. Gain and offset for the 1V25, 2V5 and VDD references are calibrated during production and the calibration values for these can be found in the Device Information page. During reset, the gain and offset calibration registers are loaded with the production calibration values for the 1V25 reference. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 378 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 26.4 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

How a re you? AES Efficient encryption/decryption with little or no CPU intervention helps to meet the speed and energy demands of the application. &G#%5 How? I a m fine AES High AES throughput allows the EFM32G to spend more time in lower energy modes. In addition, specialized data access functions allow autonomous DMA/AES operation in both EM0 and EM1. !T4/#2 27.1 Introduction The Advanced Encryption Standard (FIPS-197) is a symmetric block cipher operating on 128-bit blocks of data and 128-, 192- or 256-bit keys. The AES accelerator performs AES encryption and decryption with 128-bit or 256-bit keys. Encrypting or decrypting one 128-bit data block takes 54 HFCORECLK cycles with 128-bit keys and 75 HFCORECLK cycles with 256-bit keys. The AES module is an AHB slave which enables efficient access to the data and key registers. All write accesses to the AES module must be 32-bit operations, i.e. 8- or 16-bit operations are not supported. 27.2 Features * AES hardware encryption/decryption * 128-bit key (54 HFCORECLK cycles) * 256-bit key (75 HFCORECLK cycles) * Efficient CPU/DMA support * Interrupt on finished encryption/decryption * DMA request on finished encryption/decryption * Key buffer in AES128 mode * Optional XOR on Data write 27.3 Functional Description Some data and a key must be loaded into the KEY and DATA registers before an encryption or decryption can take place. The input data before encryption is called the PlainText and output from the encryption is called CipherText. For encryption, the key is called PlainKey. After one encryption, the resulting key in the KEY registers is the CipherKey. This key must be loaded into the KEY registers before every decryption. After one decryption, the resulting key will be the PlainKey. The resulting PlainKey/CipherKey is only dependent on the value in the KEY registers before encryption/decryption. The resulting keys and data are shown in Figure 27.1 (p. 389) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 388 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 27.1. AES Key and Data Definitions Encryption P la inTe xt De cryption P la inKe y De cryption Ciphe rTe xt Encryption Ciphe rKe y 27.3.1 Encryption/Decryption The AES module can be set to encrypt or decrypt by clearing/setting the DECRYPT bit in AES_CTRL. The AES256 bit in AES_CTRL configures the size of the key used for encryption/decryption. The AES_CTRL register should not be altered while AES is running, as this may lead to unpredictable behaviour. An AES encryption/decryption can be started in the following ways: * Writing a 1 to the START bit in AES_CMD * Writing 4 times 32 bits to AES_DATA when the DATASTART control bit is set * Writing 4 times 32 bits to AES_XORDATA when the XORSTART control bit is set An AES encryption/decryption can be stopped by writing a 1 to the STOP bit in AES_CMD. The RUNNING bit in AES_STATUS indicates that an AES encryption/decryption is ongoing. 27.3.2 Data and Key Access The AES module contains a 128-bit DATA (State) register and two 128-bit KEY registers defined as DATA3-DATA0, KEY3-KEY0 (KEYL) and KEY7-KEY4 (KEYH). In AES128 mode, the 128-bit key is read from KEYL, while both KEYH and KEYL are used in AES256 mode. See Figure 27.2 (p. 389) . The figure presents the key byte order for 256-bit keys. In 128-bit mode a16 represents the first byte of the 128-bit key. It is important to note the order of the individual bytes in the key and state in relation to how they are defined in the Advanced Encryption Standard (FIPS-197). Figure 27.2. AES Data and Key Orientation as Defined in the Advanced Encryption Standard KEYH [31:24] S 0,0 S 0,1 S 0,2 S 0,3 a0 a4 a8 a 12 a 16 a 20 a 24 a 28 [23:16] S 1,0 S 1,1 S 1,2 S 1,3 a1 a5 a9 a 13 a 17 a 21 a 25 a 29 [15:8] S 2,0 S 2,1 S 2,2 S 2,3 a2 a6 a 10 a 14 a 18 a 22 a 26 a 30 [7:0] S 3,0 S 3,1 S 3,2 S 3,3 a3 a7 a 11 a 15 a 19 a 23 a 27 a 31 DATA2 DATA1 DATA0 KEY7 KEY6 KEY5 KEY4 KEY3 KEY2 KEY1 KEY0 KEYL DATA3 Byte orde r in word DATA The registers DATA3-DATA0, are not memory mapped directly, but can be written/read by accessing AES_DATA or AES_XORDATA. The same applies for the key registers, KEY3-KEY0 which are accessed through AES_KEYLn (n=A, B, C or D), while KEY7-KEY4 are accessed through KEYHn 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 389 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers (n=A, B, C or D). Writing DATA3-DATA0 is then done through 4 consecutive writes to AES_DATA (or AES_XORDATA), starting with the word which is to be written to DATA0. For each write, the words will be word wise barrel shifted towards the least significant word. Accessing the KEY registers are done in the same fashion through KEYLn and KEYHn. See Figure 27.3 (p. 390) . Note that KEYHA, KEYHB, KEYHC and KEYHD are really the same register, just mapped to four different addresses. You can then choose freely which of these addresses you want to use to update the KEY7-KEY4 registers. The same principle applies to the KEYLn registers. Mapping the same registers to multiple addresses like this, allows the DMA controller to write a full 256-bit key in one sweep, when incrementing the address between each word write. Figure 27.3.

The opposite applies when decrypting, where you have to re-supply the CipherKey between each block. However, in AES128 mode, KEY4-KEY7 can be used as a buffer register, to hold an extra copy of the KEY3-KEY0 registers. When KEYBUFEN is set in AES_CTRL, the contents of KEY7-KEY4 are copied to KEY3-KEY0, when an encryption/decryption is started. This eliminates the need for re-loading the KEY for every encrypted/decrypted block when running in AES128 mode. 27.3.2.2 Data Write XOR The AES module contains an array of XOR gates connected to the DATA registers, which can be used during a data write to XOR the existing contents of the registers with the new data written. To use the XOR function, the data must be written to AES_XORDATA location. Reading data from AES_XORDATA is equivalent to reading data from AES_DATA. 27.3.2.3 Start on Data Write The AES module can be configured to start an encryption/decryption when the new data has been written to AES_DATA and/or AES_XORDATA. A 2-bit counter is incremented each time the AES_DATA or AES_XORDATA registers are written. This counter indicates which data word is written. If DATASTART/ XORSTART in AES_CTRL is set, an encryption will start each time the counter overflows (DATA3 is written). Writing to the AES_CTRL register will reset the counter to 0. 27.3.3 Interrupt Request The DONE interrupt flag is set when an encryption/ decryption has finished. 27.3.4 DMA Request The AES module has 4 DMA requests which are all set on a finished encryption/decryption and cleared on the following conditions: 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 390 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * * * * DATAWR: Cleared on a AES_DATA write or AES_CTRL write XORDATAWR: Cleared on a AES_XORDATA write or AES_CTRL write DATARD: Cleared on a AES_DATA read or AES_CTRL write KEYWR: Cleared on a AES_KEYHn write or AES_CTRL write 27.3.5 Block Chaining Example Example 27.1 (p. 391) below illustrates how the AES module could be configured to perform Cipher Block Chaining with 128-bit keys. Example 27.1. AES Cipher Block Chaining 1. 2. 3. 4. Configure module to encryption, key buffer enabled and XORSTART in AES_CTRL. Write 128-bit initialization vector to AES_DATA, starting with least significant word. Write PlainKey to AES_KEYHn, starting with least significant word. Write PlainText to AES_XORDATA, starting with least significant word. Encryption will be started when the DATA3 is written. KEYH (PlainKey) will be copied to KEYL before encryption starts. 5. When encryption is finished, read CipherText from AES_DATA, starting with least significant word. 6.

Easy to use and highly configurable input/ output pins are important to fit many communication protocols as well as minimizing software control overhead. Flexible routing of peripheral functions helps to ease PCB layout. EFM32 MCU GP IO How? P e riphe ra ls Each pin on the device can be individually configured as either an input or an output with several different drive modes. Also, individual bit manipulation registers minimizes control overhead. Peripheral connections to pins can be routed to several different locations, thus solving congestion issues that may arise with multiple functions on the same pin. Fully asynchronous interrupts can also be generated from any pin. ARM Corte x-M3 28.1 Introduction In the EFM32G devices the General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) pins are organized into ports with up to 16 pins each. These pins can individually be configured as either an output or input. More advanced configurations like open-drain, filtering and drive strength can also be configured individually for the pins. The GPIO pins can also be overridden by peripheral pin connections, like Timer PWM outputs or USART communication, which can be routed to several locations on the device. The GPIO supports up to 16 asynchronous external pin interrupts, which enables interrupts from any pin on the device. Also, the input value of a pin can be routed through the Peripheral Reflex System to other peripherals. 28.2 Features * Individual configuration for each pin * Tristate (reset state) * Push-pull * Open-drain * Pull-up resistor * Pull-down resistor * Four drive strength modes * HIGH * STANDARD * LOW * LOWEST 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 400 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers * Glitch suppression input filter. * Analog connection to e.g. ADC. * Alternate functions (e.g. peripheral outputs and inputs) * Routed to several locations on the device * Pin connections can be enabled individually * Output data can be overridden by peripheral * Output enable can be overridden by peripheral * Toggle, set and clear registers for output data * Dedicated data input register (read-only) * Interrupts * 2 interrupt lines from up to 16 pending sources * All GPIO pins are selectable * Separate enable, status, set and clear registers * Asynchronous sensing * Rising, falling or both edges * Wake up from EM0-EM3 * Peripheral Reflex System producer * All GPIO pins are selectable * Configuration lock functionality to avoid accidental changes 28.3 Functional Description An overview of the GPIO module is shown in Figure 28.1 (p. 402) .The GPIO pins are grouped into 16pin ports. Each individual GPIO pin is called Pxn where x indicates the port (A, B, C ...) and n indicates the pin number (0,1,....,15). Fewer than 16 bits may be available on some ports, depending on the total number of I/O pins on the package. After a reset both input and output is disabled for all pins on the device, except for debug pins. To use a pin, the port GPIO_Px_MODEL/GPIO_Px_MODEH registers must be configured for the pin to make it an input or output. These registers can also do more advanced configuration, which is covered in Section 28.3.1 (p. 402) . When the port is either configured as an input or an output, the Data In Register (GPIO_Px_DIN) can be used to read the level of each pin in the port (bit n in the register is connected to pin n on the port). When configured as an output, the value of the Data Out Register (GPIO_Px_DOUT) will be driven to the pin. The DOUT value can be changed in 4 different ways * * * * Writing to the GPIO_Px_DOUT register. Writing a 1 to a bit in the GPIO_Px_DOUTSET register sets the corresponding DOUT bit Writing a 1 to a bit in the GPIO_Px_DOUTCLR register clears the corresponding DOUT bit Writing a 1 to a bit in the GPIO_Px_DOUTTGL register toggles the corresponding DOUT bit Reading the GPIO_Px_DOUT register will return its contents.

GPIO_Px_MODEL contains 8 bit fields named MODEn (n=0,1,..7) which control pins 0-7, while GPIO_Px_MODEH contains 8 bit fields named MODEn (n=8,9,..15) which control pins 8-15. In some modes GPIO_Px_DOUT is also used for extra configurations like pull-up/down and glitch suppression filter enable. Table 28.1 (p. 402) shows the available configurations. Table 28.1.

Setting MODEn to 0b0000 disables the pin, reducing power consumption to a minimum. When the output driver is disabled, the pin can be used as a connection for an analog module (e.g. ADC). Input is enabled by setting MODEn to any value other than 0b0000. The pull-up, pull-down and filter function can optionally be applied to the input, see Figure 28.2 (p. 403) . The internal pull-up resistance, RPU, and pull-down resistance, RPD, are defined in the device datasheet. When the filter is enabled it suppresses glitches with pulse widths as defined by the parameter tIOGLITCH in the device datasheet. Figure 28.2.

In this mode, the pin is driven either high or low, dependent on the value of GPIO_Px_DOUT. The push-pull configuration is shown in Figure 28.3 (p. 404) . 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 403 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Figure 28.3. Push-Pull Configuration Output Ena ble DOUT Input Ena ble DIN When MODEn is 0110 or 0111, the pin operates in open-source mode, the latter with a pull-down resistor. When driving a high value in open-source mode, the pull-down is disconnected to save power. For the remaining MODEn values, i.e. MODEn >= 1000, the pin operates in open-drain mode as shown in Figure 28.4 (p. 404) . In open-drain mode, the pin can have an input filter, a pull-up, different driver strengths or any combination of these. When driving a low value in open-drain mode, the pull-up is disconnected to save power. Figure 28.4.

Writing the value 0xA534 to the GPIOx_LOCK register unlocks the configuration registers. In addition to configuration lock, GPIO_Px_MODEL, GPIO_Px_MODEH, GPIO_Px_DOUT, GPIO_Px_DOUTSET, GPIO_Px_DOUTCLR, and GPIO_Px_DOUTTGL can be locked individually for each pin by clearing the corresponding bit in GPIO_Px_PINLOCKN. Bits in the GPIO_Px_PINLOCKN register can only be cleared, they are set high again after reset. 28.3.2 Alternate Functions Alternate functions are connections to pins from Timers, USARTs etc. These modules contain route registers, where the pin connections are enabled. In addition, these registers contain a location bit field, which configures which pins the outputs of that module will be connected to if they are enabled. If an alternate signal output is enabled for a pin and output is enabled for the pin, the alternate 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 404 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers function's output data and output enable signals override the data output and output enable signals from the GPIO. However, the pin configuration stays as set in GPIO_Px_MODEL, GPIO_Px_MODEH and GPIO_Px_DOUT registers. I.e. the pin configuration must be set to output enable in GPIO for a peripheral to be able to use the pin as an output. It is possible, but not recommended to select two or more peripherals as output on the same pin. These signals will then be OR'ed together. However, TIMER CCx and CDTIx outputs, which are routed as alternate functions, have priority, and will never be OR'ed with other alternate functions. The reader is referred to the pin map section of the device datasheet for more information on the possible locations of each alternate function and any priority settings. 28.3.2.1 Serial Wire Debug Port Connection The SW Debug Port is routed as an alternate function and the SWDIO and SWCLK pin connections are enabled by default with internal pull-up and pull-down resistors, respectively. It is possible to disable these pin connections (and disable the pull resistors) by setting the SWDIOPEN and SWCLKPEN bits in GPIO_ROUTE to 0. WARNING: When the debug pins are disabled, the device can no longer be accessed by a debugger. A reset will set the debug pins back to their default state as enabled. If you do disable the debug pins, make sure you have at least a 3 second timeout at the start of your program code before you disable the debug pins. This way the debugger will have time to halt the device after a reset before the pins are disabled. The Serial Wire Viewer Output pin (SWO) can be enabled by setting the SWOPEN bit in GPIO_ROUTE. This bit can also be routed to alternate locations by configuring the LOCATION bitfield in GPIO_ROUTE. 28.3.2.2 Analog Connections When using the GPIO pin for analog functionality, it is recommended to disable the digital output and set the MODEn in GPIO_Px_MODEL/GPIO_Px_MODEH equal to 0b0000 to disable the input sense and pull resistors. 28.3.3 Interrupt Generation The GPIO can generate an interrupt from the input of any GPIO pin on a device. The interrupts have asynchronous sense capability, enabling wake-up from energy modes as low as EM3, see Figure 28.5 (p. 405) . Figure 28.5. Pin n Interrupt Generation EXTIP S ELn[2:0] EXTIRIS E[n] P An P Bn P Cn P Dn P En P Fn IFS [n] IFC[n] IEN[n] wa ke up set S ynch cle a r IRQ_GP IO_EVEN/ IRQ_GP IO_ODD IF[n] Odd/e ve n inputs EXTIFALL[n] P RS All pins with the same pin number (n) are grouped together to trigger one interrupt flag (EXT[n] in GPIO_IF). The EXTIPSELn[2:0] bits in GPIO_EXTIPSELL or GPIO_EXTIPSELH select which port will trigger the interrupt flag. The GPIO_EXTIRISE[n] and GPIO_EXTIFALL[n] registers enables sensing of rising and falling edges. By setting the EXT[n] bit in GPIO_IEN, a high interrupt flag n, will trigger one of two interrupt lines. The even interrupt line is triggered by any enabled even numbered interrupt flag, 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 405 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers while the odd is triggered by odd flags. The interrupt flags can be set and cleared by software by writing the GPIO_IFS and GPIO_IFC registers, see Example 28.1 (p. 406) . Since the external interrupts are asynchronous, they are sensitive to noise. To increase noise tolerance, the MODEL and MODEH fields in the GPIO_Px_MODEL and GPIO_Px_MODEH registers, respectively, should be set to include filtering for pins that have external interrupts enabled. Example 28.1. GPIO Interrupt Example Setting EXTIPSEL3 in GPIO_EXTIPSELL to 2 (Port C) and setting the GPIO_EXTIRISE[3] bit, the interrupt flag EXT[3] in GPIO_IF will be triggered by a rising edge on pin 3 on PORT C. If EXT[3] in GPIO_IEN is set as well, a interrupt request will be sent on IRQ_GPIO_ODD. 28.3.4 Output to PRS All pins with the same pin number (n) are grouped together to form one PRS producer output, giving a total of 16 outputs to the PRS. The port on which the output n should be taken is selected by the EXTIPSELn[3:0] bits in the GPIO_EXTIPSELL or the GPIO_EXTIPSELH registers. 28.3.5 Synchronization To avoid metastability in synchronous logic connected to the pins, all inputs are synchronized with double flip-flops. The flip-flops for the input data run on the HFCORECLK. Consequently, when a pin changes state, the change will have propagated to GPIO_Px_DIN after 2 positive HFCORECLK edges, or maximum 2 HFCORECLK cycles. Synchronization (also running on the HFCORECLK) is also added for interrupt input. The input to the PRS generation is also synchronized, but these flip-flops run on the HFPERCLK. To save power when the external interrupts or PRS generation is not used, the synchronization flip-flops for these can be turned off by clearing the INTSENSE or PRSSENSE, respectively, in GPIO_INSENSE register. Note To use the GPIO, the GPIO clock must first be enabled in CMU_HFPERCLKEN0. Setting this bit enables the HFCORECLK and the HFPERCLK for the GPIO. HFCORECLK is used for updating registers, while HFPERCLK is only used to synchronize PRS and interrupts. The PRS and interrupt synchronization can also be disabled through GPIO_INSENSE, if these are not used. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 406 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 28.4 Register Map The offset register address is relative to the registers base address.

The LCD driver can drive up to 4x40 segmented LCD directly. The LCD driver consumes less than 900 nA in EM2. The animation feature makes it possible to have active animations without CPU intervention. 0 1 2 3 4 Why? Segmented LCD displays are common way to display information. The extreme low-power LCD driver enables a lot of applications to utilize an LCD display even in energy critical systems. LCD Drive r How? EFM32 The low frequency clock signal, low-power waveform, animation and blink capabilities enable the LCD driver to run autonomously in EM2 for long periods. Adding the flexible frame rate setting, contrast control, and different multiplexing modes make the EFM32G the optimal choice for battery-driven systems with LCD panels. 29.1 Introduction The LCD driver is capable of driving a segmented LCD display with up to 4x40 segments. A voltage boost function enables it to provide the LCD display with higher voltage than the supply voltage for the device. In addition, an animation feature can run custom animations on the LCD display without any CPU intervention. The LCD driver can also remain active even in Energy Mode 2 and provides a Frame Counter interrupt that can wake-up the device on a regular basis for updating data. 29.2 Features * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Up to 4x40 segments. Configurable multiplexing (1, 2, 3, 4) Configurable bias/voltage levels settings Configurable clock source prescaler Configurable Frame rate Segment lines can be enabled or disabled individually Blink capabilities Integrated animation functionality Voltage boost capabilities Possible to run on external power Programmable contrast Frame Counter LCD frame interrupt Direct segment control 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 422 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 29.3 Functional Description An overview of the LCD module is shown in Figure 29.1 (p. 423) . In its simplest form, an LCD driver would apply a voltage above a certain threshold voltage in order to darken a segment and a voltage below threshold to make a segment clear. However, the LCD display segment will degrade if the applied voltage has a DC-component. To avoid this, the applied waveforms are arranged such that the differential voltage seen by each segment has an average value of zero, and such that the RMS voltage (or differential sum of the two waveforms for fast response LCDs) is below the segment threshold voltage if the segment shall be transparent, and above the segment threshold voltage when the segment shall be dark. The waveforms are multiplexed between four different common lines and 40 segment lines to support up to 160 different LCD segments. The common lines and segment lines can be enabled or disabled individually to prevent the LCD driver from occupying more I/O resources than required. Figure 29.1.

The MUX bit-field in LCD_DISPCTRL determines which COM lines are driven by the LCD driver. By default, LCD_COM0 is driven whenever the LCD driver is enabled. The LCD_SEGEN register determines which segment lines are enabled. Segment lines can be enabled or disabled in groups of 4. Each LCD segment pin can also be individually disabled by setting the pin to any other state than DISABLED in the GPIO pin configuration. Note that this feature is not available on EFM32G revisions A and B. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 423 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers 29.3.2 Multiplexing, Bias, and Wave Settings The LCD driver supports different multiplexing and bias settings, and these can be set individually in the MUX and BIAS bits in LCD_DISPCTRL respectively, see Table 29.1 (p. 424) and Table 29.2 (p. 424) . Note If the MUX and BIAS settings in LCD_DISPCTRL are changed while the LCD driver is enabled, the output waveform is unpredictable and may lead to a DC-component for one LCD frame. The MUX setting determines the number of LCD COM lines that are enabled. When static multiplexing is selected, LCD output is enabled on LCD_COM0, when duplex multiplexing is used, LCD_COM0LCD_COM1 are used, when triplex multiplexing is selected, LCD_COM0-LCD_COM2 are used, and finally when quadruplex multiplexing is selected, all COM lines are driven by the LCD driver. See Section 29.3.3 (p. 425) for waveforms for the different bias and multiplexing settings. The waveforms generated by the LCD controller can be generated in two different versions, regular and low-power. The low power mode waveforms have a lower switching frequency than the regular waveforms, and thus consume less power. The WAVE bit in LCD_DISPCTRL decides which waveforms to generate. An example of a low-power waveform is shown in Figure 29.2 (p. 425) , and an example of a regular waveform is shown in Figure 29.3 (p. 425) . Table 29.1.

The contrast is set by CONLEV in LCD_DISPCTRL, and can be adjusted relative to either VDD (VLCD) or Ground using CONCONF in LCD_DISPCTRL. See Table 29.4 (p. 437) and Table 29.5 (p. 437) , Table 29.5 (p. 437) and Table 29.6 (p. 438) . Table 29.4.

An internal boost circuit can be enabled by setting VBOOSTEN in CMU_LCDCTRL and selecting the boosted voltage by setting VLCDSEL in LCD_DISPCTRL. This will boosts VLCD to VBOOST. VBOOST can be selected in the range of 3.0 V - 3.6 V by configuring VBLEV in LCD_DISPCTRL. Note that the boost circuit is not designed to operate with the selected boost voltage, VBOOST, smaller than VDD. The boost circuit can boost the VLCD up to 3.6 V when VDD is as low as 2.0 V. When using the voltage booster, the LCD_BEXT pin must be connected through a 1 F capacitor to VSS, and the LCD_BCAP_P and LCD_BCAP_N pins must be connected to each other through a 22 nF capacitor. It is also possible to connect a dedicated power supply to the LCD module. The LCD external power supply must be connected to the LCD_BEXT pin and VLCDSEL in LCD_DISPCTRL must be set. In this mode, the voltage booster should be disabled. 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 438 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers Table 29.7. LCD VLCD VLCDSEL Mode VLCD 0 VDD VDD (same as main external power) 1 VBOOST Voltage booster/External VDD 29.3.6 VBOOST Control The boost voltage is configurable. By programming the VBLEV bits in LCD_DISPCTRL, the boost voltage level can be adjusted between 3.0V and 3.6V. The boost circuit will use an update frequency given by the VBFDIV bits in CMU_LCDCTRL, see Table 29.8 (p. 439) ). It is possible to adjust the frequency to optimize performance for all kinds of LCD panels (large capacitors may require less frequent updates, while small capacitors may require more frequent updates). A lower update frequency would in general lead to smaller current consumption. Table 29.8. LCD VBOOST Frequency VBFDIV VBOOST Update Frequency 000 LFACLK 001 LFACLK/2 010 LFACLK/4 011 LFACLK/8 100 LFACLK/16 101 LFACLK/32 110 LFACLK/64 111 LFACLK/128 29.3.7 Frame rate It is important to choose the correct frame rate for the LCD display. Normally, the frame rate should be between 30 and 100 Hz. A frame rate below 30 Hz may lead to flickering, while a frame rate above 100 Hz may lead to ghostering and unnecessarily high power consumption. 29.3.7.1 Clock Selection and Prescaler The LFACLK is prescaled to LFACLKLCDprein the CMU. The available prescaler settings are: * * * * LFCLK16: LFACLKLCDpre = LFACLK/16 LFCLK32: LFACLKLCDpre = LFACLK/32 LFCLK64: LFACLKLCDpre = LFACLK/64 LFCLK128: LFACLKLCDpre = LFACLK/128 In addition to selecting the correct prescaling, the clock source can be selected in the CMU. To use this module, the LE interface clock must be enabled in CMU_HFCORECLKEN0, in addition to the module clock. 29.3.7.2 Frame rate Division Register The frame rate is set in the CMU by programming the frame rate division bits FDIV in CMU_LCDCTRL. This setting should not be changed while the LCD driver is running. The equation for calculating the resulting frame rate is given from Equation 29.1 (p. 440) 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 439 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers LCD Frame rate Calculation LFACLKLCD = LFACLKLCDpre/(1 + FDIV) (29.1) Table 29.9.

The LCD data and Control Registers are clocked on the HFCORECLK. To avoid metastability and unpredictable behavior, the data in the Segment Data (SEGDn) registers must be synchronized to the LCD driver logic. Also, it is important that data is updated at the beginning of an LCD frame since the segment waveform depends on the segment data and a change in the middle of a frame may lead to a DC-component in that frame. The LCD driver has dedicated functionality to synchronize data transfer to the LCD frames. The synchronization logic is applied to all data that need to be updated at the beginning of the LCD frames: * * * * LCD_SEGDn LCD_AREGA LCD_AREGB LCD_BACTRL The different methods to update data are controlled by the UDCTRL bits in LCD_CTRL. Table 29.10. LCD Update Data Control (UDCTRL) Bits UDCTRL Mode Description 00 REGULAR The data transfer is controlled by SW and data synchronization is initiated by writing data to the buffers. Data is transferred as soon as possible, possibly creating a frame with a DC component on the LCD. 01 FCEVENT The data transfer is done at the next event triggered by the Frame Counter (FC). See Section 29.3.9 (p. 440) for details on how to configure the Frame Counter. Optionally, the Frame Counter can also generate an interrupt at every event. 10 FRAMESTART The data transfer is done at frame-start. 29.3.9 Frame Counter (FC) The Frame Counter is synchronized to the LCD frame start and will generate an event after a programmable number of frames. An FC event can trigger: * * * * LCD ready interrupt Blink (controlling the blink frequency) Next state in the Animation State Machine Data update if UDCTRL = 01 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 440 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers The Frame Counter is a down counter. It is enabled by writing FCEN in LCD_BACTRL. Optionally, the Frame Counter can be prescaled so that the Frame Counter is decremented at: * * * * Every frame Every second frame Every fourth frame Every eight frame This is controlled by the FCPRESC in LCD_BACTRL, see Table 29.11 (p. 441) Table 29.11. FCPRESC FCPRESC Mode Description 00 Div1 CLKFRAME/1 01 Div2 CLKFRAME/2 General equation FCPRESC CLKFC = CLKFRAME/2 10 Div4 CLKFRAME/4 11 Div8 CLKFRAME/8 The top value for the Frame Counter is set by FCTOP in LCD_BACTRL. Every time the frame counter reaches zero, it is reloaded with the top value, and at the same time an event, which can cause an interrupt, data update, blink, or an animation state transition is triggered. LCD Event Frequency Equation CLKEVENT = CLKFC/(1 + FCTOP[5:0]) Hz (29.2) The above equation shows how to set-up the LCD event frequency. In this example, the frame rate is 64Hz, and the LCD event frequency should be set-up to 2 seconds. Example 29.1. LCD Event Frequency Example * Write FCPRESC to 3 => CLKFC = 8Hz (0.125 seconds) * Write FCTOP to 15 => CLKEVENT = 0.5Hz (2 seconds) If higher resolution is required, configure a lower prescaler value and increase the FCPRESC in LCD_BACTRL accordingly (e.g. FCPRESC = 2, FCTOP = 31).

The FC interrupt flag is set at every LCD Frame Counter Event, which must be set-up separately. The interrupt is enabled by setting FC bit in LCD_IEN. 29.3.11 Blink, Blank, and Animation Features 29.3.11.1 Blink The LCD driver can be configured to blink, alternating all enabled segments between on and off. The blink frequency is given by the CLKEVENT frequency, see Section 29.3.9 (p. 440) . See Section 29.3.8 (p. 440) for details regarding synchronization of the blink feature. The FC must be on for blink to work. 29.3.11.2 Blank Setting BLANK in LCD_BACTRL will output the "OFF" waveform on all enabled segments, effectively blanking the entire display. Writing the BLANK bit to zero disables the blanking and segment data will be output as normal. See Section 29.3.8 (p. 440) for details regarding synchronization of blank. 29.3.11.3 Animation State Machine The Animation State Machine makes it possible to enable different animations without updating the data registers, allowing specialized patterns running on the LCD panel while the microcontroller remains in Low Energy Mode and thus saving power consumption. The animation feature is available on segment 0 to 7 multiplexed with LCD_COM0. The animation is implemented as two programmable 8 bits registers that are shifted left or right every other Animation state for a total of 16 states. The shift operations applied to the shift registers are controlled by AREGASC and AREGBSC in LCD_BACTRL as shown in the table below. Note also that the FC must be on for animation to work, as it is the FC event that drives the animation state machine. Table 29.12. LCD Animation Shift Register AREGnSC, n = A or B Mode Description 00 NOSHIFT No Shift operation 01 SHIFTLEFT Animation register is shifted left (LCD_AREGA is shifted every odd state, LCD_AREGB is shifted every even state) 10 SHIFTRIGHT Animation register is shifted right (LCD_AREGA is shifted every odd state, LCD_AREGB is shifted every even state) 11 Reserved Reserved The two registers are either OR'ed or AND'ed to achieve the displayed animation pattern. This is controlled by ALOGSEL in LCD_BACTRL as shown in Table 29.13 (p. 442) . In addition, the regular segment data SEGD0[7:0] is OR'ed with the animation pattern to generate the resulting output. Table 29.13.

Note that 2017-02-23 - Gecko Family - d0001_Rev1.31 442 www.silabs.com ...the world's most energy friendly microcontrollers the shifting operation is performed on internal registers that are not accessible in SW (when reading LCD_AREGA and LCD_AREGB, the data that was original written will also be read back). The SW must utilize the knowledge about the current state (ASTATE) to calculate what is currently output. ASTATE is cleared when LCD_AREGA or LCD_AREGB are updated with new values.

LCD Animation Enable Example * Write data into the animation registers LCD_AREGA, LCD_AREGB * Enable the correct shift direction (if any) * Decide which logical function to perform on the registers * ALOGSEL = 0: Data_out = LCD_AREGA & LCD_AREGB * ALOGSEL = 1:Data_out = LCD_AREGA | LCD_AREGB * Configure the right animation period (CLKEVENT) * Enable the animation pattern and frame counter (AEN = 1, FCEN = 1) For updating data in the LCD while it is running an animation, and the new animation data depends on the pattern visible on the LCD, see the following example. Example 29.3. LCD Animation Dependence Example * Enable the LCD interrupt (the interrupt will be triggered simultaneously as the Animation State machine changes state) * In the interrupt handler, read back the current state (ASTATE) * Knowing the current state of the Animation State Machine makes it possible to calculate what data that is currently output * Modify data as required (Data will be updated at the next Frame Counter Event). It is important that new data is written before the next Frame Counter Event. 29.3.12 LCD in Low Energy Modes As long as the LFACLK is running (EM0-EM2), the LCD controller continues to output LCD waveforms according to the data that is currently synchronized to the LCD Driver logic. In addition, the following features are still active if enabled: * Animation State Machine * Blink * LCD Event Interrupt 29.3.13 Register access Since this module is a Low Energy Peripheral, and runs off a clock which is asynchronous to the HFCORECLK, special considerations must be taken when accessing registers.
