23.8 Handling Errors in the Transparent Controller
The SCC reports message reception and transmission errors using the channel buffer
descriptors, the error counters, and SCCE. Table 23-5 describes transmit errors.

ENTER
HUNT
MODE
After hardware or software is reset and the channel is enabled, the channel is in receive enable mode
and uses the Þrst BD in the table.
and uses the Þrst BD in the table.
ENTER
HUNT
MODE
forces the transparent receiver to the current
frame and enter hunt mode where the transparent controller waits for the synchronization sequence.
After receiving the command, the current buffer is closed. Further data reception uses the next BD.
After receiving the command, the current buffer is closed. Further data reception uses the next BD.
CLOSE
RXBD
Forces the SCC to close the RxBD if it is being used and to use the next BD for any subsequently
received data. If the SCC is not receiving data, no action is taken by this command.

Underrun
When this occurs, the channel stops sending the buffer, closes it, sets TxBD[UN], and generates a
TXE interrupt if it is enabled. Transmission resumes after a
TXE interrupt if it is enabled. Transmission resumes after a

received. Underrun occurs after a transmit frame for which TxBD[L] was not set. In this case, only
SCCE[TXE] is set. Underrun cannot occur between transparent frames.

Description
Overrun
The SCC maintains a receive FIFO. The CPM starts programming the SDMA channel if the buffer is
in external memory and updating the CRC when 8 or 32 bits are received in the FIFO as determined
by GSMR_H[RFW]. If a FIFO overrun occurs, the SCC writes the received byte over the previously
received byte. The previous character and its status bits are lost. Afterwards, the channel closes the
buffer, sets OV in the BD, and generates the RXB interrupt if it is enabled. The receiver immediately
enters hunt mode.

When this occurs, the channel stops receiving messages, closes the buffer, sets RxBD[CD], and
generates the RXB interrupt if it is enabled. This error has highest priority. The rest of the message
is lost, and no other errors are checked in the message. The receiver immediately enters hunt
