43.7.5 Frame
Sync
The Transmitter and Receiver Frame Sync pins, TF and RF, can be programmed to generate different kinds of frame
synchronization signals. The Frame Sync Output Selection (FSOS) field in the Receive Frame Mode Register
(SSC_RFMR) and in the Transmit Frame Mode Register (SSC_TFMR) are used to select the required waveform.
synchronization signals. The Frame Sync Output Selection (FSOS) field in the Receive Frame Mode Register
(SSC_RFMR) and in the Transmit Frame Mode Register (SSC_TFMR) are used to select the required waveform.
Programmable low or high levels during data transfer are supported.
Programmable high levels before the start of data transfers or toggling are also supported.
If a pulse waveform is selected, the Frame Sync Length (FSLEN) field in SSC_RFMR and SSC_TFMR programs the
length of the pulse, from 1 bit time up to 256
length of the pulse, from 1 bit time up to 256
bit time.
The periodicity of the Receive and Transmit Frame Sync pulse output can be programmed through the Period Divider
Selection (PERIOD) field in SSC_RCMR and SSC_TCMR.
Selection (PERIOD) field in SSC_RCMR and SSC_TCMR.
43.7.5.1 Frame Sync Data
Frame Sync Data transmits or receives a specific tag during the Frame Sync signal.
During the Frame Sync signal, the Receiver can sample the RD line and store the data in the Receive Sync Holding
Register and the transmitter can transfer Transmit Sync Holding Register in the Shifter Register. The data length to be
sampled/shifted out during the Frame Sync signal is programmed by the FSLEN field in SSC_RFMR/SSC_TFMR and
has a maximum value of 16.
Register and the transmitter can transfer Transmit Sync Holding Register in the Shifter Register. The data length to be
sampled/shifted out during the Frame Sync signal is programmed by the FSLEN field in SSC_RFMR/SSC_TFMR and
has a maximum value of 16.
Concerning the Receive Frame Sync Data operation, if the Frame Sync Length is equal to or lower than the delay
between the start event and the actual data reception, the data sampling operation is performed in the Receive Sync
Holding Register through the Receive Shift Register.
between the start event and the actual data reception, the data sampling operation is performed in the Receive Sync
Holding Register through the Receive Shift Register.
The Transmit Frame Sync Operation is performed by the transmitter only if the bit Frame Sync Data Enable (FSDEN) in
SSC_TFMR is set. If the Frame Sync length is equal to or lower than the delay between the start event and the actual
data transmission, the normal transmission has priority and the data contained in the Transmit Sync Holding Register is
transferred in the Transmit Register, then shifted out.
SSC_TFMR is set. If the Frame Sync length is equal to or lower than the delay between the start event and the actual
data transmission, the normal transmission has priority and the data contained in the Transmit Sync Holding Register is
transferred in the Transmit Register, then shifted out.
43.7.5.2 Frame Sync Edge Detection
The Frame Sync Edge detection is programmed by the FSEDGE field in SSC_RFMR/SSC_TFMR. This sets the
corresponding flags RXSYN/TXSYN in the SSC Status Register (SSC_SR) on frame synchro edge detection (signals
RF/TF).
