1.1 System Control and Interrupts (different 281x and 280x versions)
The TMS320x281x System Control and Interrupts Peripheral Guide
(SPRU078) and the TMS320x280x System Control and Interrupts Peripheral
Guide (SPRU712) include information on the following modules:
- Memory, including Flash and OTP configuration
- Code security module (CSM)
- Clocking, low power modes, watchdog, and CPU-timers
- General-purpose inputs/outputs (GPIO)
- Peripheral frames
- Peripheral interrupt expansion (PIE)
1.1.1 Code Security Module (CSM)
Security is defined with respect to the access of the on-chip program memory
and prevents unauthorized copying of proprietary code. The code security
module (CSM) blocks access to several on-chip program memory blocks.
1.1.2 Peripheral Clocking
The clocks to each individual peripheral can be enabled/disabled so as to
reduce power consumption when a peripheral is not in use. Additionally, the
system clock to the serial ports and the event managers, CAP and QEP blocks
can be scaled relative to the CPU clock. This enables the timing of peripherals
to be decoupled from increasing CPU clock speeds.
1.1.2.1 CPU-Timers
CPU-Timers 0, 1, and 2 are identical 32-bit timers with presettable periods and
with 16-bit clock prescaling. The timers have a 32-bit count down register,
which generates an interrupt when the counter reaches zero. The counter is
decremented at the CPU clock speed divided by the prescale value setting.
When the counter reaches zero, it is automatically reloaded with a 32-bit
period value. CPU-Timers 1 and 2 are reserved for Real-Time OS (RTOS)
applications. CPU-Timer 2 is connected to INT14 of the CPU. CPU-Timer 1
can be connected to INT13 of the CPU. CPU-Timer 0 is for general use and
is connected to the PIE block.
1.1.2.2 Watchdog Timer
The 28x devices support a watchdog timer. The user software must regularly
reset the watchdog counter within a certain time frame; otherwise, the
4 SPRU566B
watchdog generates a reset to the processor. The watchdog can be disabled
if necessary.
1.1.3 General-Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) Multiplexer
Most of the peripheral signals are multiplexed with general-purpose I/O
(GPIO) signals. This enables you to use a pin as GPIO if the peripheral signal
or function is not used. On reset, all GPIO pins are configured as inputs. You
can then individually program each pin for GPIO mode or Peripheral Signal
mode. For specific inputs, you can also select the number of input qualification
cycles to filter unwanted noise glitches.
1.1.4 Peripheral Frames
The 281x and 280x devices contain three peripheral register spaces. Some
registers within these frames can be protected from CPU writes by the
EALLOW protection mechanism.
1.1.5 Peripheral Interrupt Expansion (PIE) Block
The PIE block multiplexes numerous interrupt sources into a smaller set of
interrupt inputs. The interrupts are grouped into blocks of eight and each group
is fed into one of 12 CPU interrupt lines (INT1 to INT12). Each of the 96
interrupts is supported by its own vector stored in a dedicated RAM block that
can be overwritten by the user. The vector is automatically fetched by the CPU
on servicing the interrupt. It takes nine CPU clock cycles to fetch the vector and
save critical CPU registers. Therefore, the CPU can respond quickly to
interrupt events. Prioritization of interrupts is controlled in hardware and
software. Each individual interrupt can be enabled/disabled within the PIE
block.
1.2 TMS320x281x External Interface (XINTF) (SPRU067)
The external interface (XINTF) on the 2812 device is a nonmultiplexed
asynchronous bus that is used to interface to external devices and memory.
1.3 TMS320x281x, 280x Enhanced Controller Area Network (eCAN)
(SPRU074)
This is the enhanced version of the CAN peripheral. It supports 32 mailboxes,
time stamping of messages, and is CAN 2.0B-compliant.
1.4 TMS320x281x Event Manager (EV) (SPRU065)
The event manager module includes general-purpose timers,
full-compare/pulse-width modulation (PWM) units, capture inputs (CAP) and
5 SPRU566B
quadrature-encoder pulse (QEP) circuits. Two such event managers are
provided, which enable two three-phase motors to be driven or four two-phase
motors. The event managers on the F2810 and F2812 are compatible to the
event managers on the 240x devices (with some minor enhancements).
1.5 TMS320x281x, 280x Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) (different
281x and 280x versions)
The ADC block is a 12-bit converter, single ended, 16-channels. It contains two
sample-and-hold units for simultaneous sampling. See the TMS320x281x
Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) Reference Guide (literature number
SPRU060) or the TMS320x280x Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) Refer-
ence Guide (literature number SPRU712) for details on how to use the ADC
for your device.
1.6 TMS320x281x Multichannel Buffered Serial Port (McBSP) (SPRU061)
The McBSP is used to connect to E1/T1 lines, phone-quality codecs for
modem applications or high-quality stereo-quality Audio DAC devices. The
McBSP receive and transmit registers are supported by a 16-level FIFO. This
significantly reduces the overhead for servicing this peripheral.
1.7 TMS320x281x, 280x Serial Communications Interface (SCI)
(SPRU051)
The SCI is a two-wire asynchronous serial port, commonly known as UART.
On the F2810 and the F2812, the port supports a 16-level, receive and
transmit FIFO for reducing servicing overhead.
1.8 TMS320x281x, 280x Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) (SPRU059)
The SPI is a high-speed, synchronous serial I/O port that allows a serial bit
stream of programmed length (one to sixteen bits) to be shifted into and out
of the device at a programmable bit-transfer rate. Normally, the SPI is used for
communications between the DSP controller and external peripherals or
another processor. Typical applications include external I/O or peripheral
expansion through devices such as shift registers, display drivers, and ADCs.
Multi-device communications are supported by the master/slave operation of
the SPI. The port supports a 16-level, receive and transmit FIFO for reducing
servicing overhead.
1.9 Boot ROM (different 281x and 280x versions)
The boot ROM is factory-programmable with boot-loading software. Boot-
mode signals (general-purpose I/Os) are used to tell the bootloader software
6 SPRU566B
which mode to use. The Boot ROM also contains standard math tables such
as SIN/COS for use in IQ math related algorithms. See the TMS320x281x Boot
ROM Reference Guide (literature number SPRU095) or the TMS320x280x
Boot ROM Reference Guide (SPRU722) for details.
1.10 TMS320x280x Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) (SPRU721)
This guide describes the features and operation of the inter-integrated circuit
(I
2
C) module that is available on the TMS320x280x digital signal processor
(DSP). The I
2
C module provides an interface between one of these DSPs and
devices compliant with Philips Semiconductors Inter-IC bus (I
2
C-bus)
specification version 2.1 and connected by way of an I
2
C-bus. External
components attached to this 2-wire serial bus can transmit/receive 1- to 8-bit
data to/from the 280x DSP through the I
2
C module. This chapter assumes the
reader is familiar with the I
2
C-bus specification.
1.11 TMS320x280x Enhanced Quadrature Encoder Pulse (eQEP) Module
(SPRU790)
The enhanced quadrature encoder pulse (eQEP) module is used for direct
interface with a linear or rotary incremental encoder to get position, direction,
and speed information from a rotating machine for use in a high-performance
motion and position-control system
1.12 TMS320x280x Enhanced Capture (eCAP) Module (SPRU807)
The enhanced Capture (eCAP) Module is essential in systems where accurate
timing of external events is important.
Uses for eCAP include:
- Speed measurements of rotating machinery (e.g., toothed sprockets
sensed via Hall sensors)
- Elapsed time measurements between position sensor triggers
- Period and duty cycle measurements of pulse train signals
- Decoding current or voltage amplitude derived from duty cycle encoded
current/voltage sensors
1.13 TMS320x280x Enhanced PWM (ePWM) Module (SPRU791)
The enhanced pulse width modulator (ePWM) peripheral controls many of the
power-related systems found in both commercial and industrial equipments.
7 SPRU566B
The main systems include digital motor control, switch mode power supply
control, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and other forms of power
conversion. The PWM peripheral performs a DAC function, where the duty
cycle is equivalent to a DAC analog value; it is sometimes referred to as a
Power DAC.
