ICode bus
This bus connects the Instruction bus of the Cortex™-M3 core to the Flash memory
instruction interface. Prefetching is performed on this bus.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 39/995

Memory and bus architecture RM0008

DCode bus
This bus connects the DCode bus (literal load and debug access) of the Cortex™-M3 core
to the Flash memory Data interface.

System bus
This bus connects the system bus of the Cortex™-M3 core (peripherals bus) to a BusMatrix
which manages the arbitration between the core and the DMA.

DMA bus
This bus connects the AHB master interface of the DMA to the BusMatrix which manages
the access of CPU DCode and DMA to SRAM, Flash memory and peripherals.

BusMatrix
The BusMatrix manages the access arbitration between the core system bus and the DMA
master bus. The arbitration uses a Round Robin algorithm. In connectivity line devices, the
BusMatrix is composed of five masters (CPU DCode, System bus, Ethernet DMA, DMA1
and DMA2 bus) and three slaves (FLITF, SRAM and AHB2APB bridges). In other devices,
the BusMatrix is composed of four masters (CPU DCode, System bus, DMA1 bus and
DMA2 bus) and four slaves (FLITF, SRAM, FSMC and AHB2APB bridges).
AHB peripherals are connected on system bus through a BusMatrix to allow DMA access.

AHB/APB bridges (APB)

The two AHB/APB bridges provide full synchronous connections between the AHB and the
2 APB buses. APB1 is limited to 36 MHz, APB2 operates at full speed (up to 72 MHz
depending on the device).
Refer to Table 1 on page 41 for the address mapping of the peripherals connected to each
bridge.
After each device reset, all peripheral clocks are disabled (except for the SRAM and FLITF).
Before using a peripheral you have to enable its clock in the RCC_AHBENR,
RCC_APB2ENR or RCC_APB1ENR register.
Note: When a 16- or 8-bit access is performed on an APB register, the access is transformed into
a 32-bit access: the bridge duplicates the 16- or 8-bit data to feed the 32-bit vector.

2.2 Memory organization

Program memory, data memory, registers and I/O ports are organized within the same linear
4-Gbyte address space.
The bytes are coded in memory in Little Endian format. The lowest numbered byte in a word
is considered the word’s least significant byte and the highest numbered byte the most
significant.
For the detailed mapping of peripheral registers, please refer to the related chapters.
The addressable memory space is divided into 8 main blocks, each of 512 MB.
All the memory areas that are not allocated to on-chip memories and peripherals are
considered “Reserved”). Refer to the Memory map figure in the corresponding product
datasheet.

2.3.1 Embedded SRAM

The STM32F10xxx features 64 Kbytes of static SRAM. It can be accessed as bytes, half-
words (16 bits) or full words (32 bits). The SRAM start address is 0x2000 0000.

42/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Memory and bus architecture

2.3.2 Bit banding

The Cortex™-M3 memory map includes two bit-band regions. These regions map each
word in an alias region of memory to a bit in a bit-band region of memory. Writing to a word
in the alias region has the same effect as a read-modify-write operation on the targeted bit in
the bit-band region.
In the STM32F10xxx both peripheral registers and SRAM are mapped in a bit-band region.
This allows single bit-band write and read operations to be performed.
A mapping formula shows how to reference each word in the alias region to a corresponding
bit in the bit-band region. The mapping formula is:
bit_word_addr = bit_band_base + (byte_offset x 32) + (bit_number × 4)
where:
bit_word_addr is the address of the word in the alias memory region that maps to the
targeted bit.
bit_band_base is the starting address of the alias region
byte_offset is the number of the byte in the bit-band region that contains the targeted bit
bit_number is the bit position (0-7) of the targeted bit.
Example:
The following example shows how to map bit 2 of the byte located at SRAM address
0x20000300 in the alias region:
0x22006008 = 0x22000000 + (0x300*32) + (2*4).
Writing to address 0x22006008 has the same effect as a read-modify-write operation on bit
2 of the byte at SRAM address 0x20000300.
Reading address 0x22006008 returns the value (0x01 or 0x00) of bit 2 of the byte at SRAM
address 0x20000300 (0x01: bit set; 0x00: bit reset).
For more information on Bit-Banding, please refer to the Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference
Manual.

STM32F10xxx Flash programming manual.

Reading the Flash memory

Flash memory instructions and data access are performed through the AHB bus. The
prefetch block is used for instruction fetches through the ICode bus. Arbitration is performed
in the Flash memory interface, and priority is given to data access on the DCode bus.
Read accesses can be performed with the following configuration options:
● Latency: number of wait states for a read operation programmed on-the-fly
● Prefetch buffer (2 x 64-bit blocks): it is enabled after reset; a whole block can be
replaced with a single read from the Flash memory as the size of the block matches the
bandwidth of the Flash memory. Thanks to the prefetch buffer, faster CPU execution is
possible as the CPU fetches one word at a time with the next word readily available in
the prefetch buffer
● Half cycle: for power optimization

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 47/995

Memory and bus architecture RM0008

Note: 1 These options should be used in accordance with the Flash memory access time. The wait
states represent the ratio of the SYSCLK (system clock) period to the Flash memory access
time:
zero wait state, if 0 < SYSCLK  24 MHz
one wait state, if 24 MHz < SYSCLK  48 MHz
two wait states, if 48 MHz < SYSCLK  72 MHz
2 Half cycle configuration is not available in combination with a prescaler on the AHB. The
system clock (SYSCLK) should be equal to the HCLK clock. This feature can therefore be
used only with a low-frequency clock of 8 MHz or less. It can be generated from the HSI or
the HSE but not from the PLL.
3 The prefetch buffer must be kept on when using a prescaler different from 1 on the AHB
clock.
4 The prefetch buffer must be switched on/off only when SYSCLK is lower than 24 MHz. The
prefetch buffer is usually switched on/off during the initialization routine, while the
microcontroller is running on the internal 8 MHz RC (HSI) oscillator.
5 Using DMA: DMA accesses Flash memory on the DCode bus and has priority over ICode
instructions. The DMA provides one free cycle after each transfer. Some instructions can be
performed together with DMA transfer.

Programming and erasing the Flash memory

The Flash memory can be programmed 16 bits (half words) at a time.
The Flash memory erase operation can be performed at page level or on the whole Flash
area (mass-erase). The mass-erase does not affect the information blocks.
To ensure that there is no over-programming, the Flash Programming and Erase Controller
blocks are clocked by a fixed clock.
The End of write operation (programming or erasing) can trigger an interrupt. This interrupt
can be used to exit from WFI mode, only if the FLITF clock is enabled. Otherwise, the
interrupt is served only after an exit from WFI.
Note: For further information on Flash memory operations and register configurations, please refer
to the STM32F10xxx Flash programming manual.

2.4 Boot configuration

In the STM32F10xxx, 3 different boot modes can be selected through BOOT[1:0] pins as
shown in Table 6.

Table 6. Boot modes

Boot mode selection pins
Boot mode Aliasing
BOOT1 BOOT0

x 0 Main Flash memory Main Flash memory is selected as boot space

0 1 System memory System memory is selected as boot space
1 1 Embedded SRAM Embedded SRAM is selected as boot space

48/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Memory and bus architecture

The values on the BOOT pins are latched on the 4th rising edge of SYSCLK after a Reset. It
is up to the user to set the BOOT1 and BOOT0 pins after Reset to select the required boot
mode.
The BOOT pins are also re-sampled when exiting from Standby mode. Consequently they
must be kept in the required Boot mode configuration in Standby mode. After this startup
delay has elapsed, the CPU fetches the top-of-stack value from address 0x0000 0000, then
starts code execution from the boot memory starting from 0x0000 0004.
Due to its fixed memory map, the code area starts from address 0x0000 0000 (accessed
through the ICode/DCode buses) while the data area (SRAM) starts from address
0x2000 0000 (accessed through the system bus). The Cortex-M3 CPU always fetches the
reset vector on the ICode bus, which implies to have the boot space available only in the
code area (typically, Flash memory). STM32F10xxx microcontrollers implement a special
mechanism to be able to boot also from SRAM and not only from main Flash memory and
System memory.
Depending on the selected boot mode main Flash memory, System memory or SRAM is
accessible as follows:
● Boot from main Flash memory: the main Flash memory is aliased in the boot memory
space (0x0000 0000), but still accessible from its original memory space (0x800 0000).
In other words, the Flash memory contents can be accessed starting from address
0x0000 0000 or 0x800 0000.
● Boot from System memory: the System memory is aliased in the boot memory space
(0x0000 0000), but still accessible from its original memory space (0x1FFF B000 in
connectivity line devices, 0x1FFF F000 in other devices).
● Boot from the embedded SRAM: SRAM is accessible only at address 0x2000 0000.
Note: When booting from SRAM, in the application initialization code, you have to relocate the
vector table in SRAM using the NVIC exception table and offset register.

Embedded boot loader

The embedded boot loader is located in the System memory, programmed by ST during
production. It is used to reprogram the Flash memory with one of the available serial
interfaces:
● In low-, medium- and high-density devices the bootloader is activated through the
USART1 interface. For further details please refer to AN2606.
● In connectivity line devices the bootloader can be activated through one of the following
interfaces: USART1, USART2 (remapped), CAN2 (remapped) or USB OTG FS in
Device mode (DFU: device firmware upgrade).
The USART peripheral operates with the internal 8 MHz oscillator (HSI). The CAN and
USB OTG FS, however, can only function if an external 8 MHz, 14.7456 MHz or
25 MHz clock (HSE) is present. For further details, please refer to AN2662.

3.1 CRC introduction

The CRC (cyclic redundancy check) calculation unit is used to get a CRC code from a 32-bit
data word and a fixed generator polynomial.
Among other applications, CRC-based techniques are used to verify data transmission or
storage integrity. In the scope of the EN/IEC 60335-1 standard, they offer a means of
verifying the Flash memory integrity. The CRC calculation unit helps compute a signature of
the software during runtime, to be compared with a reference signature generated at link-
time and stored at a given memory location.

3.2 CRC main features

● Uses CRC-32 (Ethernet) polynomial: 0x4C11DB7

● Single input/output 32-bit data register
● CRC computation done in 4 AHB clock cycles (HCLK)
● General-purpose 8-bit register (can be used for temporary storage)

3.3 CRC functional description

The CRC calculation unit mainly consists of a single 32-bit data register, which:
● is used as an input register to enter new data in the CRC calculator (when writing into
the register)
● holds the result of the previous CRC calculation (when reading the register)
Each write operation into the data register creates a combination of the previous CRC value
and the new one (CRC computation is done on the whole 32-bit data word, and not byte per
byte).
The write operation is stalled until the end of the CRC computation, thus allowing back-to-
back write accesses or consecutive write and read accesses.
The CRC calculator can be reset to FFFF FFFFh with the RESET control bit in the CRC_CR
register. This operation does not affect the contents of the CRC_IDR register.

3.4 CRC registers

The CRC calculation unit contains two data registers and a control register.

4.1 Power supplies

The device requires a 2.0-to-3.6 V operating voltage supply (VDD). An embedded regulator
is used to supply the internal 1.8 V digital power.
The real-time clock (RTC) and backup registers can be powered from the VBAT voltage when
the main VDD supply is powered off.

4.1.1 Independent A/D converter supply and reference voltage

To improve conversion accuracy, the ADC has an independent power supply which can be
separately filtered and shielded from noise on the PCB.
● The ADC voltage supply input is available on a separate VDDA pin.
● An isolated supply ground connection is provided on pin VSSA.
When available (according to package), VREF- must be tied to VSSA.

On 100-pin and 144- pin packages

To ensure a better accuracy on low voltage inputs, the user can connect a separate external
reference voltage ADC input on VREF+ and VREF-. The voltage on VREF+ can range from
2.4 V to VDDA.

On 64-pin packages
The VREF+ and VREF- pins are not available, they are internally connected to the ADC
voltage supply (VDDA) and ground (VSSA).

4.1.2 Battery backup domain

To retain the content of the Backup registers and supply the RTC function when VDD is
turned off, VBAT pin can be connected to an optional standby voltage supplied by a battery or
by another source.
The VBAT pin powers the RTC unit, the LSE oscillator and the PC13 to PC15 IOs, allowing
the RTC to operate even when the main digital supply (VDD) is turned off. The switch to the
VBAT supply is controlled by the Power Down Reset embedded in the Reset block.

Warning: During tRSTTEMPO (temporization at VDD startup) or after a PDR

is detected, the power switch between VBAT and VDD remains
connected to VBAT.
During the startup phase, if VDD is established in less than
tRSTTEMPO (Refer to the datasheet for the value of tRSTTEMPO)
and VDD > VBAT + 0.6 V, a current may be injected into VBAT
through an internal diode connected between VDD and the
power switch (VBAT).
If the power supply/battery connected to the VBAT pin cannot
support this current injection, it is strongly recommended to
connect an external low-drop diode between this power
supply and the VBAT pin.

If no external battery is used in the application, it is recommended to connect VBAT

externally to VDD through a 100 nF external ceramic capacitor (for more details refer to
AN2586).
When the backup domain is supplied by VDD (analog switch connected to VDD), the
following functions are available:
● PC14 and PC15 can be used as either GPIO or LSE pins
● PC13 can be used as GPIO, TAMPER pin, RTC Calibration Clock, RTC Alarm or
second output (refer to Section 5: Backup registers (BKP) on page 66)

54/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Power control (PWR)

Note: Due to the fact that the switch only sinks a limited amount of current (3 mA), the use of
GPIOs PC13 to PC15 in output mode is restricted: the speed has to be limited to 2 MHz with
a maximum load of 30 pF and these IOs must not be used as a current source (e.g. to drive
an LED).
When the backup domain is supplied by VBAT (analog switch connected to VBAT because
VDD is not present), the following functions are available:
● PC14 and PC15 can be used as LSE pins only
● PC13 can be used as TAMPER pin, RTC Alarm or Second output (refer to section
Section 5.4.2: RTC clock calibration register (BKP_RTCCR) on page 68).

4.1.3 Voltage regulator

The voltage regulator is always enabled after Reset. It works in three different modes
depending on the application modes.
● In Run mode, the regulator supplies full power to the 1.8 V domain (core, memories
and digital peripherals).
● In Stop mode the regulator supplies low-power to the 1.8 V domain, preserving
contents of registers and SRAM
● In Standby Mode, the regulator is powered off. The contents of the registers and SRAM
are lost except for the Standby circuitry and the Backup Domain.

4.2 Power supply supervisor

4.2.1 Power on reset (POR)/power down reset (PDR)

The device has an integrated POR/PDR circuitry that allows proper operation starting
from/down to 2 V.
The device remains in Reset mode when VDD/VDDA is below a specified threshold,
VPOR/PDR, without the need for an external reset circuit. For more details concerning the
power on/power down reset threshold, refer to the electrical characteristics of the datasheet.

4.2.2 Programmable voltage detector (PVD)

You can use the PVD to monitor the VDD/VDDA power supply by comparing it to a threshold
selected by the PLS[2:0] bits in the Power control register (PWR_CR).
The PVD is enabled by setting the PVDE bit.
A PVDO flag is available, in the Power control/status register (PWR_CSR), to indicate if
VDD/VDDA is higher or lower than the PVD threshold. This event is internally connected to
the EXTI line16 and can generate an interrupt if enabled through the EXTI registers. The
PVD output interrupt can be generated when VDD/VDDA drops below the PVD threshold
and/or when VDD/VDDA rises above the PVD threshold depending on EXTI line16
rising/falling edge configuration. As an example the service routine could perform
emergency shutdown tasks.

4.3 Low-power modes

By default, the microcontroller is in Run mode after a system or a power Reset. Several low-
power modes are available to save power when the CPU does not need to be kept running,
for example when waiting for an external event. It is up to the user to select the mode that
gives the best compromise between low-power consumption, short startup time and
available wakeup sources.
The STM32F10xxx devices feature three low-power modes:
● Sleep mode (CPU clock off, all peripherals including Cortex-M3 core peripherals like
NVIC, SysTick, etc. are kept running)
● Stop mode (all clocks are stopped)
● Standby mode (1.8V domain powered-off)
In addition, the power consumption in Run mode can be reduce by one of the following
means:
● Slowing down the system clocks
● Gating the clocks to the APB and AHB peripherals when they are unused.

4.3.1 Slowing down system clocks

In Run mode the speed of the system clocks (SYSCLK, HCLK, PCLK1, PCLK2) can be
reduced by programming the prescaler registers. These prescalers can also be used to slow
down peripherals before entering Sleep mode.
For more details refer to Section 6.3.2: Clock configuration register (RCC_CFGR).

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 57/995

Power control (PWR) RM0008

4.3.2 Peripheral clock gating

In Run mode, the HCLK and PCLKx for individual peripherals and memories can be stopped
at any time to reduce power consumption.
To further reduce power consumption in Sleep mode the peripheral clocks can be disabled
prior to executing the WFI or WFE instructions.
Peripheral clock gating is controlled by the AHB peripheral clock enable register
(RCC_AHBENR), APB1 peripheral clock enable register (RCC_APB1ENR) and APB2
peripheral clock enable register (RCC_APB2ENR).

4.3.3 Sleep mode

Entering Sleep mode
The Sleep mode is entered by executing the WFI (Wait For Interrupt) or WFE (Wait for
Event) instructions. Two options are available to select the Sleep mode entry mechanism,
depending on the SLEEPONEXIT bit in the Cortex-M3 System Control register:
● Sleep-now: if the SLEEPONEXIT bit is cleared, the MCU enters Sleep mode as soon
as WFI or WFE instruction is executed.
● Sleep-on-exit: if the SLEEPONEXIT bit is set, the MCU enters Sleep mode as soon as
it exits the lowest priority ISR.
In the Sleep mode, all I/O pins keep the same state as in the Run mode.
Refer to Table 9 and Table 10 for details on how to enter Sleep mode.

Exiting Sleep mode

If the WFI instruction is used to enter Sleep mode, any peripheral interrupt acknowledged by
the nested vectored interrupt controller (NVIC) can wake up the device from Sleep mode.
If the WFE instruction is used to enter Sleep mode, the MCU exits Sleep mode as soon as
an event occurs. The wakeup event can be generated either by:
● enabling an interrupt in the peripheral control register but not in the NVIC, and enabling
the SEVONPEND bit in the Cortex-M3 System Control register. When the MCU
resumes from WFE, the peripheral interrupt pending bit and the peripheral NVIC IRQ
channel pending bit (in the NVIC interrupt clear pending register) have to be cleared.
● or configuring an external or internal EXTI line in event mode. When the CPU resumes
from WFE, it is not necessary to clear the peripheral interrupt pending bit or the NVIC
IRQ channel pending bit as the pending bit corresponding to the event line is not set.
This mode offers the lowest wakeup time as no time is wasted in interrupt entry/exit.
Refer to Table 9 and Table 10 for more details on how to exit Sleep mode.

4.3.4 Stop mode

The Stop mode is based on the Cortex-M3 deepsleep mode combined with peripheral clock
gating. The voltage regulator can be configured either in normal or low-power mode. In Stop
mode, all clocks in the 1.8 V domain are stopped, the PLL, the HSI and the HSE RC
oscillators are disabled. SRAM and register contents are preserved.
In the Stop mode, all I/O pins keep the same state as in the Run mode.

Entering Stop mode

Refer to Table 11 for details on how to enter the Stop mode.
To further reduce power consumption in Stop mode, the internal voltage regulator can be
put in low-power mode. This is configured by the LPDS bit of the Power control register
(PWR_CR).
If Flash memory programming is ongoing, the Stop mode entry is delayed until the memory
access is finished.
If an access to the APB domain is ongoing, The Stop mode entry is delayed until the APB
access is finished.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 59/995

Power control (PWR) RM0008

In Stop mode, the following features can be selected by programming individual control bits:
● Independent watchdog (IWDG): the IWDG is started by writing to its Key register or by
hardware option. Once started it cannot be stopped except by a Reset. See
Section 17.3 in Section 17: Independent watchdog (IWDG).
● real-time clock (RTC): this is configured by the RTCEN bit in the Backup domain control
register (RCC_BDCR)
● Internal RC oscillator (LSI RC): this is configured by the LSION bit in the Control/status
register (RCC_CSR).
● External 32.768 kHz oscillator (LSE OSC): this is configured by the LSEON bit in the
Backup domain control register (RCC_BDCR).
The ADC or DAC can also consume power during the Stop mode, unless they are disabled
before entering it. To disable them, the ADON bit in the ADC_CR2 register and the ENx bit
in the DAC_CR register must both be written to 0.
Exiting Stop mode
Refer to Table 11 for more details on how to exit Stop mode.
When exiting Stop mode by issuing an interrupt or a wakeup event, the HSI RC oscillator is
selected as system clock.
When the voltage regulator operates in low-power mode, an additional startup delay is
incurred when waking up from Stop mode. By keeping the internal regulator ON during Stop
mode, the consumption is higher although the startup time is reduced.

Table 11. Stop mode

Stop mode Description

WFI (Wait for Interrupt) or WFE (Wait for Event) while:

– Set SLEEPDEEP bit in Cortex™-M3 System Control register
– Clear PDDS bit in Power Control register (PWR_CR)
Mode entry – Select the voltage regulator mode by configuring LPDS bit in PWR_CR

Note: To enter Stop mode, all EXTI Line pending bits (in Pending register
(EXTI_PR)) and RTC Alarm flag must be reset. Otherwise, the Stop mode
entry procedure is ignored and program execution continues.
If WFI was used for entry:
Any EXTI Line configured in Interrupt mode (the corresponding EXTI
Interrupt vector must be enabled in the NVIC). Refer to Table 53: Vector

4.3.5 Standby mode

The Standby mode allows to achieve the lowest power consumption. It is based on the
Cortex-M3 deepsleep mode, with the voltage regulator disabled. The 1.8 V domain is
consequently powered off. The PLL, the HSI oscillator and the HSE oscillator are also

60/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Power control (PWR)

switched off. SRAM and register contents are lost except for registers in the Backup domain
and Standby circuitry (see Figure 4).

Entering Standby mode

Refer to Table 12 for more details on how to enter Standby mode.
In Standby mode, the following features can be selected by programming individual control
bits:
● Independent watchdog (IWDG): the IWDG is started by writing to its Key register or by
hardware option. Once started it cannot be stopped except by a reset. See
Section 17.3 in Section 17: Independent watchdog (IWDG).
● real-time clock (RTC): this is configured by the RTCEN bit in the Backup domain control
register (RCC_BDCR)
● Internal RC oscillator (LSI RC): this is configured by the LSION bit in the Control/status
register (RCC_CSR).
● External 32.768 kHz oscillator (LSE OSC): this is configured by the LSEON bit in the
Backup domain control register (RCC_BDCR)
Exiting Standby mode
The microcontroller exits Standby mode when an external Reset (NRST pin), IWDG Reset,
a rising edge on WKUP pin or an RTC alarm occurs. All registers are reset after wakeup
from Standby except for Power control/status register (PWR_CSR).
After waking up from Standby mode, program execution restarts in the same way as after a
Reset (boot pins sampling, vector reset is fetched, etc.). The SBF status flag in the Power
control/status register (PWR_CSR) indicates that the MCU was in Standby mode.
Refer to Table 12 for more details on how to exit Standby mode.

Power control (PWR) RM0008

Debug mode
By default, the debug connection is lost if the application puts the MCU in Stop or Standby
mode while the debug features are used. This is due to the fact that the Cortex™-M3 core is
no longer clocked.
However, by setting some configuration bits in the DBGMCU_CR register, the software can
be debugged even when using the low-power modes extensively. For more details, refer to
Section 29.16.1: Debug support for low-power modes.

4.3.6 Auto-wakeup (AWU) from low-power mode

The RTC can be used to wakeup the MCU from low-power mode without depending on an
external interrupt (Auto-wakeup mode). The RTC provides a programmable time base for
waking up from Stop or Standby mode at regular intervals. For this purpose, two of the three
alternative RTC clock sources can be selected by programming the RTCSEL[1:0] bits in the
Backup domain control register (RCC_BDCR):
● Low-power 32.768 kHz external crystal oscillator (LSE OSC).
This clock source provides a precise time base with very low-power consumption (less
than 1µA added consumption in typical conditions)
● Low-power internal RC Oscillator (LSI RC)
This clock source has the advantage of saving the cost of the 32.768 kHz crystal. This
internal RC Oscillator is designed to add minimum power consumption.
To wakeup from Stop mode with an RTC alarm event, it is necessary to:
● Configure the EXTI Line 17 to be sensitive to rising edge
● Configure the RTC to generate the RTC alarm
To wakeup from Standby mode, there is no need to configure the EXTI Line 17.

Backup registers (BKP) RM0008

5 Backup registers (BKP)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This Section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.

5.1 BKP introduction

The backup registers are forty two 16-bit registers for storing 84 bytes of user application
data. They are implemented in the backup domain that remains powered on by VBAT when
the VDD power is switched off. They are not reset when the device wakes up from Standby
mode or by a system reset or power reset.
In addition, the BKP control registers are used to manage the Tamper detection feature and
RTC calibration.
After reset, access to the Backup registers and RTC is disabled and the Backup domain
(BKP) is protected against possible parasitic write access. To enable access to the Backup
registers and the RTC, proceed as follows:
● enable the power and backup interface clocks by setting the PWREN and BKPEN bits
in the RCC_APB1ENR register
● set the DBP bit the Power Control Register (PWR_CR) to enable access to the Backup
registers and RTC.

5.2 BKP main features

● 20-byte data registers (in medium-density and low-density devices) or 84-byte data
registers (in high-density and connectivity line devices)
● Status/control register for managing tamper detection with interrupt capability
● Calibration register for storing the RTC calibration value
● Possibility to output the RTC Calibration Clock, RTC Alarm pulse or Second pulse on
TAMPER pin PC13 (when this pin is not used for tamper detection)

66/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Backup registers (BKP)

5.3 BKP functional description

5.3.1 Tamper detection

The TAMPER pin generates a Tamper detection event when the pin changes from 0 to 1 or
from 1 to 0 depending on the TPAL bit in the Backup control register (BKP_CR). A tamper
detection event resets all data backup registers.
However to avoid losing Tamper events, the signal used for edge detection is logically
ANDed with the Tamper enable in order to detect a Tamper event in case it occurs before
the TAMPER pin is enabled.
● When TPAL=0: If the TAMPER pin is already high before it is enabled (by setting TPE
bit), an extra Tamper event is detected as soon as the TAMPER pin is enabled (while
there was no rising edge on the TAMPER pin after TPE was set)
● When TPAL=1: If the TAMPER pin is already low before it is enabled (by setting the
TPE bit), an extra Tamper event is detected as soon as the TAMPER pin is enabled
(while there was no falling edge on the TAMPER pin after TPE was set)
By setting the TPIE bit in the BKP_CSR register, an interrupt is generated when a Tamper
detection event occurs.
After a Tamper event has been detected and cleared, the TAMPER pin should be disabled
and then re-enabled with TPE before writing to the backup data registers (BKP_DRx) again.
This prevents software from writing to the backup data registers (BKP_DRx), while the
TAMPER pin value still indicates a Tamper detection. This is equivalent to a level detection
on the TAMPER pin.
Note: Tamper detection is still active when VDD power is switched off. To avoid unwanted resetting
of the data backup registers, the TAMPER pin should be externally tied to the correct level.

5.3.2 RTC calibration

For measurement purposes, the RTC clock with a frequency divided by 64 can be output on
the TAMPER pin. This is enabled by setting the CCO bit in the RTC clock calibration register
(BKP_RTCCR).
The clock can be slowed down by up to 121 ppm by configuring CAL[6:0] bits.
For more details about RTC calibration and how to use it to improve timekeeping accuracy,
please refer to AN2604 "STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx RTC calibration”.

6 Low-, medium- and high-density reset and clock

control (RCC)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This Section applies to low-, medium- and high-density STM32F10xxx devices. Connectivity
line devices are discussed in a separate section (refer to Connectivity line devices: reset
and clock control (RCC) on page 104).

6.1 Reset
There are three types of reset, defined as system Reset, power Reset and backup domain
Reset.

6.1.1 System reset

A system reset sets all registers to their reset values except the reset flags in the clock
controller CSR register and the registers in the Backup domain (see Figure 4).
A system reset is generated when one of the following events occurs:
1. A low level on the NRST pin (external reset)
2. Window watchdog end of count condition (WWDG reset)
3. Independent watchdog end of count condition (IWDG reset)
4. A software reset (SW reset) (see Section : Software reset)
5. Low-power management reset (see Section : Low-power management reset)
The reset source can be identified by checking the reset flags in the Control/Status register,
RCC_CSR (see Section 6.3.10: Control/status register (RCC_CSR)).

Software reset
The SYSRESETREQ bit in Cortex™-M3 Application Interrupt and Reset Control Register
must be set to force a software reset on the device. Refer to the Cortex™-M3 technical
reference manual for more details.

Low-power management reset

There are two ways to generate a low-power management reset:

74/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Low-, medium- and high-density reset and clock control (RCC)

1. Reset generated when entering Standby mode:

This type of reset is enabled by resetting nRST_STDBY bit in User Option Bytes. In this
case, whenever a Standby mode entry sequence is successfully executed, the device
is reset instead of entering Standby mode.
2. Reset when entering Stop mode:
This type of reset is enabled by resetting NRST_STOP bit in User Option Bytes. In this
case, whenever a Stop mode entry sequence is successfully executed, the device is
reset instead of entering Stop mode.
For further information on the User Option Bytes, refer to the STM32F10xxx Flash
programming manual.

6.1.2 Power reset

A power reset is generated when one of the following events occurs:
1. Power-on/power-down reset (POR/PDR reset)
2. When exiting Standby mode
A power reset sets all registers to their reset values except the Backup domain (see
Figure 4)
These sources act on the NRST pin and it is always kept low during the delay phase. The
RESET service routine vector is fixed at address 0x0000_0004 in the memory map. For more
details, refer to Table 53: Vector table for other STM32F10xxx devices on page 172.

6.1.3 Backup domain reset

The backup domain has two specific resets that affect only the backup domain (see
Figure 4).
A backup domain reset is generated when one of the following events occurs:
1. Software reset, triggered by setting the BDRST bit in the Backup domain control
register (RCC_BDCR).
2. VDD or VBAT power on, if both supplies have previously been powered off.

Low-, medium- and high-density reset and clock control (RCC) RM0008

6.2 Clocks
Three different clock sources can be used to drive the system clock (SYSCLK):
● HSI oscillator clock
● HSE oscillator clock
● PLL clock
The devices have the following two secondary clock sources:
● 40 kHz low speed internal RC (LSI RC) which drives the independent watchdog and
optionally the RTC used for Auto-wakeup from Stop/Standby mode.
● 32.768 kHz low speed external crystal (LSE crystal) which optionally drives the real-
time clock (RTCCLK)
Each clock source can be switched on or off independently when it is not used, to optimize
power consumption.

1. When the HSI is used as a PLL clock input, the maximum system clock frequency that can be achieved is
64 MHz.
2. For full details about the internal and external clock source characteristics, please refer to the “Electrical
characteristics” section in your device datasheet.
Several prescalers allow the configuration of the AHB frequency, the high speed APB
(APB2) and the low speed APB (APB1) domains. The maximum frequency of the AHB and
the APB2 domains is 72 MHz. The maximum allowed frequency of the APB1 domain is
36 MHz. The SDIO AHB interface is clocked with a fixed frequency equal to HCLK/2.
The RCC feeds the Cortex System Timer (SysTick) external clock with the AHB clock
(HCLK) divided by 8. The SysTick can work either with this clock or with the Cortex clock
(HCLK), configurable in the SysTick Control and Status Register. The ADCs are clocked by
the clock of the High Speed domain (APB2) divided by 2, 4, 6 or 8.
The timer clock frequencies are automatically fixed by hardware. There are two cases:

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 77/995

Low-, medium- and high-density reset and clock control (RCC) RM0008

1. if the APB prescaler is 1, the timer clock frequencies are set to the same frequency as
that of the APB domain to which the timers are connected.
2. otherwise, they are set to twice (×2) the frequency of the APB domain to which the
timers are connected.
FCLK acts as Cortex™-M3 free running clock. For more details refer to the ARM Cortex™-
M3 Technical Reference Manual.

6.2.1 HSE clock

The high speed external clock signal (HSE) can be generated from two possible clock
sources:
● HSE external crystal/ceramic resonator
● HSE user external clock
The resonator and the load capacitors have to be placed as close as possible to the
oscillator pins in order to minimize output distortion and startup stabilization time. The
loading capacitance values must be adjusted according to the selected oscillator.

External source (HSE bypass)

In this mode, an external clock source must be provided. It can have a frequency of up to 25
MHz. You select this mode by setting the HSEBYP and HSEON bits in the Clock control
register (RCC_CR). The external clock signal (square, sinus or triangle) with ~50% duty
cycle has to drive the OSC_IN pin while the OSC_OUT pin should be left hi-Z. See Figure 9.

78/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Low-, medium- and high-density reset and clock control (RCC)

External crystal/ceramic resonator (HSE crystal)

The 4 to 16 MHz external oscillator has the advantage of producing a very accurate rate on
the main clock.
The associated hardware configuration is shown in Figure 9. Refer to the electrical
characteristics section of the datasheet for more details.
The HSERDY flag in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) indicates if the high-speed
external oscillator is stable or not. At startup, the clock is not released until this bit is set by
hardware. An interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Clock interrupt register
(RCC_CIR).
The HSE Crystal can be switched on and off using the HSEON bit in the Clock control
register (RCC_CR).

6.2.2 HSI clock

The HSI clock signal is generated from an internal 8 MHz RC Oscillator and can be used
directly as a system clock or divided by 2 to be used as PLL input.
The HSI RC oscillator has the advantage of providing a clock source at low cost (no external
components). It also has a faster startup time than the HSE crystal oscillator however, even
with calibration the frequency is less accurate than an external crystal oscillator or ceramic
resonator.

Calibration
RC oscillator frequencies can vary from one chip to another due to manufacturing process
variations, this is why each device is factory calibrated by ST for 1% accuracy at TA=25°C.
After reset, the factory calibration value is loaded in the HSICAL[7:0] bits in the Clock control
register (RCC_CR).
If the application is subject to voltage or temperature variations this may affect the RC
oscillator speed. You can trim the HSI frequency in the application using the HSITRIM[4:0]
bits in the Clock control register (RCC_CR).
The HSIRDY flag in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) indicates if the HSI RC is stable or
not. At startup, the HSI RC output clock is not released until this bit is set by hardware.
The HSI RC can be switched on and off using the HSION bit in the Clock control register
(RCC_CR).
The HSI signal can also be used as a backup source (Auxiliary clock) if the HSE crystal
oscillator fails. Refer to Section 6.2.7: Clock security system (CSS) on page 81.

6.2.3 PLL
The internal PLL can be used to multiply the HSI RC output or HSE crystal output clock
frequency. Refer to Figure 8 and Clock control register (RCC_CR).
The PLL configuration (selection of HSI oscillator divided by 2 or HSE oscillator for PLL
input clock, and multiplication factor) must be done before enabling the PLL. Once the PLL
enabled, these parameters cannot be changed.
An interrupt can be generated when the PLL is ready if enabled in the Clock interrupt
register (RCC_CIR).

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 79/995

Low-, medium- and high-density reset and clock control (RCC) RM0008

If the USB interface is used in the application, the PLL must be programmed to output 48 or
72 MHz. This is needed to provide a 48 MHz USBCLK.

6.2.4 LSE clock

The LSE crystal is a 32.768 kHz Low Speed External crystal or ceramic resonator. It has the
advantage providing a low-power but highly accurate clock source to the real-time clock
peripheral (RTC) for clock/calendar or other timing functions.
The LSE crystal is switched on and off using the LSEON bit in Backup domain control
register (RCC_BDCR).
The LSERDY flag in the Backup domain control register (RCC_BDCR) indicates if the LSE
crystal is stable or not. At startup, the LSE crystal output clock signal is not released until
this bit is set by hardware. An interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Clock interrupt
register (RCC_CIR).

External source (LSE bypass)

In this mode, an external clock source must be provided. It must have a frequency of
32.768 kHz. You select this mode by setting the LSEBYP and LSEON bits in the Backup
domain control register (RCC_BDCR). The external clock signal (square, sinus or triangle)
with ~50% duty cycle has to drive the OSC32_IN pin while the OSC32_OUT pin should be
left Hi-Z. See Figure 9.

6.2.5 LSI clock

The LSI RC acts as an low-power clock source that can be kept running in Stop and
Standby mode for the independent watchdog (IWDG) and Auto-wakeup unit (AWU). The
clock frequency is around 40 kHz (between 30 kHz and 60 kHz). For more details, refer to
the electrical characteristics section of the datasheets.
The LSI RC can be switched on and off using the LSION bit in the Control/status register
(RCC_CSR).
The LSIRDY flag in the Control/status register (RCC_CSR) indicates if the low-speed
internal oscillator is stable or not. At startup, the clock is not released until this bit is set by
hardware. An interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Clock interrupt register
(RCC_CIR).
Note: LSI calibration is only available on high-density and connectivity line devices.

LSI calibration
The frequency dispersion of the Low Speed Internal RC (LSI) oscillator can be calibrated to
have accurate RTC time base and/or IWDG timeout (when LSI is used as clock source for
these peripherals) with an acceptable accuracy.
This calibration is performed by measuring the LSI clock frequency with respect to TIM5
input clock (TIM5CLK). According to this measurement done at the precision of the HSE
oscillator, the software can adjust the programmable 20-bit prescaler of the RTC to get an
accurate time base or can compute accurate IWDG timeout.

80/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Low-, medium- and high-density reset and clock control (RCC)

Use the following procedure to calibrate the LSI:

1. Enable TIM5 timer and configure channel4 in input capture mode
2. Set the TIM5CH4_IREMAP bit in the AFIO_MAPR register to connect the LSI clock
internally to TIM5 channel4 input capture for calibration purpose.
3. Measure the frequency of LSI clock using the TIM5 Capture/compare 4 event or
interrupt.
4. Use the measured LSI frequency to update the 20-bit prescaler of the RTC depending
on the desired time base and/or to compute the IWDG timeout.

6.2.6 System clock (SYSCLK) selection

After a system reset, the HSI oscillator is selected as system clock. When a clock source is
used directly or through the PLL as system clock, it is not possible to stop it.
A switch from one clock source to another occurs only if the target clock source is ready
(clock stable after startup delay or PLL locked). If a clock source which is not yet ready is
selected, the switch will occur when the clock source will be ready. Status bits in the Clock
control register (RCC_CR) indicate which clock(s) is (are) ready and which clock is currently
used as system clock.

6.2.7 Clock security system (CSS)

Clock Security System can be activated by software. In this case, the clock detector is
enabled after the HSE oscillator startup delay, and disabled when this oscillator is stopped.
If a failure is detected on the HSE oscillator clock, this oscillator is automatically disabled, a
clock failure event is sent to the break input of the advanced-control timers (TIM1 and TIM8)
and an interrupt is generated to inform the software about the failure (Clock Security System
Interrupt CSSI), allowing the MCU to perform rescue operations. The CSSI is linked to the
Cortex™-M3 NMI (Non-Maskable Interrupt) exception vector.
Note: Once the CSS is enabled and if the HSE clock fails, the CSS interrupt occurs and an NMI is
automatically generated. The NMI will be executed indefinitely unless the CSS interrupt
pending bit is cleared. As a consequence, in the NMI ISR user must clear the CSS interrupt
by setting the CSSC bit in the Clock interrupt register (RCC_CIR).
If the HSE oscillator is used directly or indirectly as the system clock (indirectly means: it is
used as PLL input clock, and the PLL clock is used as system clock), a detected failure
causes a switch of the system clock to the HSI oscillator and the disabling of the external
HSE oscillator. If the HSE oscillator clock (divided or not) is the clock entry of the PLL used
as system clock when the failure occurs, the PLL is disabled too.

6.2.8 RTC clock

The RTCCLK clock source can be either the HSE/128, LSE or LSI clocks. This is selected
by programming the RTCSEL[1:0] bits in the Backup domain control register (RCC_BDCR).
This selection cannot be modified without resetting the Backup domain.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 81/995

Low-, medium- and high-density reset and clock control (RCC) RM0008

The LSE clock is in the Backup domain, whereas the HSE and LSI clocks are not.
Consequently:
● If LSE is selected as RTC clock:
– The RTC continues to work even if the VDD supply is switched off, provided the
VBAT supply is maintained.
● If LSI is selected as Auto-Wakeup unit (AWU) clock:
– The AWU state is not guaranteed if the VDD supply is powered off. Refer to
Section 6.2.5: LSI clock on page 80 for more details on LSI calibration.
● If the HSE clock divided by 128 is used as the RTC clock:
– The RTC state is not guaranteed if the VDD supply is powered off or if the internal
voltage regulator is powered off (removing power from the 1.8 V domain).
– The DPB bit (Disable backup domain write protection) in the Power controller
register must be set to 1 (refer to Section 4.4.1: Power control register
(PWR_CR)).

6.2.9 Watchdog clock

If the Independent watchdog (IWDG) is started by either hardware option or software
access, the LSI oscillator is forced ON and cannot be disabled. After the LSI oscillator
temporization, the clock is provided to the IWDG.

6.2.10 Clock-out capability

The microcontroller clock output (MCO) capability allows the clock to be output onto the
external MCO pin. The configuration registers of the corresponding GPIO port must be
programmed in alternate function mode. One of 4 clock signals can be selected as the MCO
clock.
● SYSCLK
● HSI
● HSE
● PLL clock divided by 2
The selection is controlled by the MCO[2:0] bits of the Clock configuration register
(RCC_CFGR).

Reset value: 0x0000 0000
Access: word, half-word and byte access
No wait state, except if the access occurs while an access to a peripheral on APB1 domain
is on going. In this case, wait states are inserted until this access to APB1 peripheral is
finished.
Note: When the peripheral clock is not active, the peripheral register values may not be readable
by software and the returned value is always 0x0.

7 Connectivity line devices: reset and clock control

(RCC)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This Section applies to all connectivity line devices, unless otherwise specified.

7.1 Reset
There are three types of reset, defined as system Reset, power Reset and backup domain
Reset.

7.1.1 System reset

A system reset sets all registers to their reset values except the reset flags in the clock
controller CSR register and the registers in the Backup domain (see Figure 4).
A system reset is generated when one of the following events occurs:
1. A low level on the NRST pin (external reset)
2. Window watchdog end of count condition (WWDG reset)
3. Independent watchdog end of count condition (IWDG reset)
4. A software reset (SW reset) (see Section : Software reset)
5. Low-power management reset (see Section : Low-power management reset)
The reset source can be identified by checking the reset flags in the Control/Status register,
RCC_CSR (see Section 7.3.10: Control/status register (RCC_CSR)).

Software reset
The SYSRESETREQ bit in Cortex™-M3 Application Interrupt and Reset Control Register
must be set to force a software reset on the device. Refer to the Cortex™-M3 technical
reference manual for more details.

104/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Connectivity line devices: reset and clock control (RCC)

Low-power management reset

There are two ways to generate a low-power management reset:
1. Reset generated when entering Standby mode:
This type of reset is enabled by resetting nRST_STDBY bit in User Option Bytes. In this
case, whenever a Standby mode entry sequence is successfully executed, the device
is reset instead of entering Standby mode.
2. Reset when entering Stop mode:
This type of reset is enabled by resetting NRST_STOP bit in User Option Bytes. In this
case, whenever a Stop mode entry sequence is successfully executed, the device is
reset instead of entering Stop mode.
For further information on the User Option Bytes, refer to the STM32F10xxx Flash
programming manual.

7.1.2 Power reset

A power reset is generated when one of the following events occurs:
1. Power-on/power-down reset (POR/PDR reset)
2. When exiting Standby mode
A power reset sets all registers to their reset values except the Backup domain (see
Figure 4)
These sources act on the NRST pin and it is always kept low during the delay phase. The
RESET service routine vector is fixed at address 0x0000_0004 in the memory map. For more
details, refer to Table 53: Vector table for other STM32F10xxx devices on page 172.

7.1.3 Backup domain reset

The backup domain has two specific resets that affect only the backup domain (see
Figure 4).
A backup domain reset is generated when one of the following events occurs:
1. Software reset, triggered by setting the BDRST bit in the Backup domain control
register (RCC_BDCR).
2. VDD or VBAT power on, if both supplies have previously been powered off.

Connectivity line devices: reset and clock control (RCC) RM0008

7.2 Clocks
Three different clock sources can be used to drive the system clock (SYSCLK):
● HSI oscillator clock
● HSE oscillator clock
● PLL clock
The devices have the following two secondary clock sources:
● 40 kHz low speed internal RC (LSI RC) which drives the independent watchdog and
optionally the RTC used for Auto-wakeup from Stop/Standby mode.
● 32.768 kHz low speed external crystal (LSE crystal) which optionally drives the real-
time clock (RTCCLK)
Each clock source can be switched on or off independently when it is not used, to optimize
power consumption.

1. When the HSI is used as a PLL clock input, the maximum system clock frequency that can be achieved is
36 MHz.
2. For full details about the internal and external clock source characteristics, please refer to the “Electrical
characteristics” section in your device datasheet.
The advanced clock controller features 3 PLLs to provide a high degree of flexibility to the
application in the choice of the external crystal or oscillator to run the core and peripherals
at the highest frequency and guarantee the appropriate frequency for the Ethernet and USB
OTG FS.
A single 25 MHz crystal can clock the entire system and all peripherals including the
Ethernet and USB OTG FS peripherals. In order to achieve high-quality audio performance,
an audio crystal can be used. In this case, the I2S master clock can generate all standard
sampling frequencies from 8 kHz to 96 kHz with less than 0.5% accuracy.
For more details about clock configuration for applications requiring Ethernet, USB OTG FS
and/or I2S (audio), please refer to "Appendix A Applicative block diagrams" in your
connectivity line device datasheet.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 107/995

Connectivity line devices: reset and clock control (RCC) RM0008

Several prescalers allow the configuration of the AHB frequency, the high speed APB
(APB2) and the low speed APB (APB1) domains. The maximum frequency of the AHB and
the APB2 domains is 72 MHz. The maximum allowed frequency of the APB1 domain is
36 MHz.
All peripheral clocks are derived from the system clock (SYSCLK) except:
● The Flash memory programming interface clock which is always the HSI clock
● The USB OTG FS 48MHz clock which is derived from the PLL VCO clock
● The I2S2 and I2S3 clocks which can also be derived from the PLL3 VCO clock
(selection by software)
● The Ethernet MAC clocks (TX, RX and RMII) which are provided from the external
PHY. For further information on Ethernet configuration, please refer to Section 27.4.4:
MII/RMII selection.
The RCC feeds the Cortex System Timer (SysTick) external clock with the AHB clock
(HCLK) divided by 8. The SysTick can work either with this clock or with the Cortex clock
(HCLK), configurable in the SysTick Control and Status Register. The ADCs are clocked by
the clock of the High Speed domain (APB2) divided by 2, 4, 6 or 8.
The timer clock frequencies are automatically fixed by hardware. There are two cases:
1. if the APB prescaler is 1, the timer clock frequencies are set to the same frequency as
that of the APB domain to which the timers are connected.
2. otherwise, they are set to twice (×2) the frequency of the APB domain to which the
timers are connected.
FCLK acts as Cortex™-M3 free running clock. For more details refer to the ARM Cortex™-
M3 Technical Reference Manual.

7.2.1 HSE clock

The high speed external clock signal (HSE) can be generated from two possible clock
sources:
● HSE external crystal/ceramic resonator
● HSE user external clock
The resonator and the load capacitors have to be placed as close as possible to the
oscillator pins in order to minimize output distortion and startup stabilization time. The
loading capacitance values must be adjusted according to the selected oscillator.

External source (HSE bypass)

In this mode, an external clock source must be provided. It can have a frequency of up to
50 MHz. You select this mode by setting the HSEBYP and HSEON bits in the Clock control
register (RCC_CR). The external clock signal (square, sinus or triangle) with ~50% duty
cycle has to drive the OSC_IN pin while the OSC_OUT pin should be left hi-Z. See
Figure 12.

External crystal/ceramic resonator (HSE crystal)

The 3 to 25 MHz external oscillator has the advantage of producing a very accurate rate on
the main clock.
The associated hardware configuration is shown in Figure 12. Refer to the electrical
characteristics section of the datasheet for more details.
The HSERDY flag in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) indicates if the high-speed
external oscillator is stable or not. At startup, the clock is not released until this bit is set by
hardware. An interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Clock interrupt register
(RCC_CIR).
The HSE Crystal can be switched on and off using the HSEON bit in the Clock control
register (RCC_CR).

7.2.2 HSI clock

The HSI clock signal is generated from an internal 8 MHz RC Oscillator and can be used
directly as a system clock or divided by 2 to be used as PLL input.
The HSI RC oscillator has the advantage of providing a clock source at low cost (no external
components). It also has a faster startup time than the HSE crystal oscillator however, even
with calibration the frequency is less accurate than an external crystal oscillator or ceramic
resonator.

Connectivity line devices: reset and clock control (RCC) RM0008

Calibration
RC oscillator frequencies can vary from one chip to another due to manufacturing process
variations, this is why each device is factory calibrated by ST for 1% accuracy at TA= 25 °C.
After reset, the factory calibration value is loaded in the HSICAL[7:0] bits in the Clock control
register (RCC_CR).
If the application is subject to voltage or temperature variations this may affect the RC
oscillator speed. You can trim the HSI frequency in the application using the HSITRIM[4:0]
bits in the Clock control register (RCC_CR).
The HSIRDY flag in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) indicates if the HSI RC is stable or
not. At startup, the HSI RC output clock is not released until this bit is set by hardware.
The HSI RC can be switched on and off using the HSION bit in the Clock control register
(RCC_CR).
The HSI signal can also be used as a backup source (Auxiliary clock) if the HSE crystal
oscillator fails. Refer to Section 7.2.7: Clock security system (CSS) on page 112.

7.2.3 PLLs
The main PLL provides a frequency multiplier starting from one of the following clock
sources:
● HSI clock divided by 2
● HSE or PLL2 clock through a configurable divider
Refer to Figure 11 and Clock control register (RCC_CR).
PLL2 and PLL3 are clocked by HSE through a specific configurable divider. Refer to
Figure 11 and Clock configuration register2 (RCC_CFGR2)
The configuration of each PLL (selection of clock source, predivision factor and
multiplication factor) must be done before enabling the PLL. Each PLL should be enabled
after its input clock becomes stable (ready flag). Once the PLL is enabled, these parameters
can not be changed.
When changing the entry clock source of the main PLL, the original clock source must be
switched off only after the selection of the new clock source (done through bit PLLSRC in
the Clock configuration register (RCC_CFGR)).
An interrupt can be generated when the PLL is ready if enabled in the Clock interrupt
register (RCC_CIR).

7.2.4 LSE clock

The LSE crystal is a 32.768 kHz Low Speed External crystal or ceramic resonator. It has the
advantage providing a low-power but highly accurate clock source to the real-time clock
peripheral (RTC) for clock/calendar or other timing functions.
The LSE crystal is switched on and off using the LSEON bit in Backup domain control
register (RCC_BDCR).
The LSERDY flag in the Backup domain control register (RCC_BDCR) indicates if the LSE
crystal is stable or not. At startup, the LSE crystal output clock signal is not released until
this bit is set by hardware. An interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Clock interrupt
register (RCC_CIR).

110/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Connectivity line devices: reset and clock control (RCC)

External source (LSE bypass)

In this mode, an external clock source must be provided. It must have a frequency of
32.768 kHz. You select this mode by setting the LSEBYP and LSEON bits in the Backup
domain control register (RCC_BDCR). The external clock signal (square, sinus or triangle)
with ~50% duty cycle has to drive the OSC32_IN pin while the OSC32_OUT pin should be
left Hi-Z. See Figure 12.

7.2.5 LSI clock

The LSI RC acts as an low-power clock source that can be kept running in Stop and
Standby mode for the independent watchdog (IWDG) and Auto-wakeup unit (AWU). The
clock frequency is around 40 kHz (between 30 kHz and 60 kHz). For more details, refer to
the electrical characteristics section of the datasheets.
The LSI RC can be switched on and off using the LSION bit in the Control/status register
(RCC_CSR).
The LSIRDY flag in the Control/status register (RCC_CSR) indicates if the low-speed
internal oscillator is stable or not. At startup, the clock is not released until this bit is set by
hardware. An interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Clock interrupt register
(RCC_CIR).

LSI calibration
The frequency dispersion of the Low Speed Internal RC (LSI) oscillator can be calibrated to
have accurate RTC time base and/or IWDG timeout (when LSI is used as clock source for
these peripherals) with an acceptable accuracy.
This calibration is performed by measuring the LSI clock frequency with respect to TIM5
input clock (TIM5CLK). According to this measurement done at the precision of the HSE
oscillator, the software can adjust the programmable 20-bit prescaler of the RTC to get an
accurate time base or can compute accurate IWDG timeout.
Use the following procedure to calibrate the LSI:
1. Enable TIM5 timer and configure channel4 in input capture mode
2. Set the TIM5CH4_IREMAP bit in the AFIO_MAPR register to connect the LSI clock
internally to TIM5 channel4 input capture for calibration purpose.
3. Measure the frequency of LSI clock using the TIM5 Capture/compare 4 event or
interrupt.
4. Use the measured LSI frequency to update the 20-bit prescaler of the RTC depending
on the desired time base and/or to compute the IWDG timeout.

7.2.6 System clock (SYSCLK) selection

After a system reset, the HSI oscillator is selected as system clock. When a clock source is
used directly or through the PLL as the system clock, it is not possible to stop it.
A switch from one clock source to another occurs only if the target clock source is ready
(clock stable after startup delay or PLL locked). If a clock source which is not yet ready is
selected, the switch will occur when the clock source will be ready. Status bits in the Clock
control register (RCC_CR) indicate which clock(s) is (are) ready and which clock is currently
used as system clock.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 111/995

Connectivity line devices: reset and clock control (RCC) RM0008

7.2.7 Clock security system (CSS)

Clock Security System can be activated by software. In this case, the clock detector is
enabled after the HSE oscillator startup delay, and disabled when this oscillator is stopped.
If a failure is detected on the HSE oscillator clock, this oscillator is automatically disabled, a
clock failure event is sent to the break input of the TIM1 Advanced control timer and an
interrupt is generated to inform the software about the failure (Clock Security System
Interrupt CSSI), allowing the MCU to perform rescue operations. The CSSI is linked to the
Cortex™-M3 NMI (Non-Maskable Interrupt) exception vector.
Note: Once the CSS is enabled and if the HSE clock fails, the CSS interrupt occurs and an NMI is
automatically generated. The NMI will be executed indefinitely unless the CSS interrupt
pending bit is cleared. As a consequence, in the NMI ISR user must clear the CSS interrupt
by setting the CSSC bit in the Clock interrupt register (RCC_CIR).
If the HSE oscillator is used directly or indirectly as the system clock (indirectly means: it is
used as PLL input clock directly or through PLL2, and the PLL clock is used as system
clock), a detected failure causes a switch of the system clock to the HSI oscillator and the
disabling of the external HSE oscillator. If the HSE oscillator clock is the clock entry of the
PLL (directly or through PLL2) used as system clock when the failure occurs, the PLL is
disabled too.

7.2.8 RTC clock

The RTCCLK clock source can be either the HSE/128, LSE or LSI clocks. This is selected
by programming the RTCSEL[1:0] bits in the Backup domain control register (RCC_BDCR).
This selection cannot be modified without resetting the Backup domain.
The LSE clock is in the Backup domain, whereas the HSE and LSI clocks are not.
Consequently:
● If LSE is selected as RTC clock:
– The RTC continues to work even if the VDD supply is switched off, provided the
VBAT supply is maintained.
● If LSI is selected as Auto-Wakeup unit (AWU) clock:
– The AWU state is not guaranteed if the VDD supply is powered off. Refer to
Section 7.2.5: LSI clock on page 111 for more details on LSI calibration.
● If the HSE clock divided by 128 is used as RTC clock:
– The RTC state is not guaranteed if the VDD supply is powered off or if the internal
voltage regulator is powered off (removing power from the 1.8 V domain).
– The DPB bit (Disable backup domain write protection) in the Power controller
register must be set to 1 (refer to Section 4.4.1: Power control register
(PWR_CR)).

7.2.9 Watchdog clock

If the Independent watchdog (IWDG) is started by either hardware option or software
access, the LSI oscillator is forced ON and cannot be disabled. After the LSI oscillator
temporization, the clock is provided to the IWDG.

7.2.10 Clock-out capability

The microcontroller clock output (MCO) capability allows the clock to be output onto the
external MCO pin. The configuration registers of the corresponding GPIO port must be
programmed in alternate function mode. One of 8 clock signals can be selected as the MCO
clock.
● SYSCLK
● HSI
● HSE
● PLL clock divided by 2 selected
● PLL2 clock selected
● PLL3 clock divided by 2 selected
● XT1 external 3-25 MHz oscillator clock selected (for Ethernet)
● PLL3 clock selected (for Ethernet)
The selected clock to output onto MCO must not exceed 50 MHz (the maximum I/O speed).
The selection is controlled by the MCO[3:0] bits of the Clock configuration register
(RCC_CFGR).

Wait states are inserted in the case of successive accesses to this register.
Note: LSEON, LSEBYP, RTCSEL and RTCEN bits of the Backup domain control register
(RCC_BDCR) are in the Backup domain. As a result, after Reset, these bits are write-
protected and the DBP bit in the Power control register (PWR_CR) has to be set before
these can be modified. Refer to Section 5 on page 66 for further information. These bits are
only reset after a Backup domain Reset (see Section 7.1.3: Backup domain reset). Any
internal or external Reset will not have any effect on these bits.

8 General-purpose and alternate-function I/Os (GPIOs

and AFIOs)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This Section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.

8.1 GPIO functional description

Each of the general-purpose I/O ports has two 32-bit configuration registers (GPIOx_CRL,
GPIOx_CRH), two 32-bit data registers (GPIOx_IDR, GPIOx_ODR), a 32-bit set/reset
register (GPIOx_BSRR), a 16-bit reset register (GPIOx_BRR) and a 32-bit locking register
(GPIOx_LCKR).
Subject to the specific hardware characteristics of each I/O port listed in the datasheet, each
port bit of the General Purpose IO (GPIO) Ports, can be individually configured by software
in several modes:
● Input floating
● Input pull-up
● Input-pull-down
● Analog Input
● Output open-drain
● Output push-pull
● Alternate function push-pull
● Alternate function open-drain
Each I/O port bit is freely programmable, however the I/O port registers have to be accessed
as 32-bit words (half-word or byte accesses are not allowed). The purpose of the
GPIOx_BSRR and GPIOx_BRR registers is to allow atomic read/modify accesses to any of
the GPIO registers. This way, there is no risk that an IRQ occurs between the read and the
modify access.
Figure 13 shows the basic structure of an I/O Port bit.

8.1.1 General-purpose I/O (GPIO)

During and just after reset, the alternate functions are not active and the I/O ports are
configured in Input Floating mode (CNFx[1:0]=01b, MODEx[1:0]=00b).
The JTAG pins are in input PU/PD after reset:
PA15: JTDI in PU
PA14: JTCK in PD
PA13: JTMS in PU
PB4: JNTRST in PU
When configured as output, the value written to the Output Data register (GPIOx_ODR) is
output on the I/O pin. It is possible to use the output driver in Push-Pull mode or Open-Drain
mode (only the N-MOS is activated when outputting 0).
The Input Data register (GPIOx_IDR) captures the data present on the I/O pin at every
APB2 clock cycle.
All GPIO pins have an internal weak pull-up and weak pull-down which can be activated or
not when configured as input.

8.1.2 Atomic bit set or reset

There is no need for the software to disable interrupts when programming the GPIOx_ODR
at bit level: it is possible to modify only one or several bits in a single atomic APB2 write
access. This is achieved by programming to ‘1’ the Bit Set/Reset Register (GPIOx_BSRR,

140/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 General-purpose and alternate-function I/Os (GPIOs and AFIOs)

or for reset only GPIOx_BRR) to select the bits you want to modify. The unselected bits will
not be modified.

8.1.3 External interrupt/wakeup lines

All ports have external interrupt capability. To use external interrupt lines, the port must be
configured in input mode. For more information on external interrupts, refer to:
● Section 9.2: External interrupt/event controller (EXTI) on page 174 and
● Section 9.2.3: Wakeup event management on page 175.

8.1.4 Alternate functions (AF)

It is necessary to program the Port Bit Configuration Register before using a default
alternate function.
● For alternate function inputs, the port must be configured in Input mode (floating, pull-
up or pull-down) and the input pin must be driven externally.
Note: It is also possible to emulate the AFI input pin by software by programming the GPIO
controller. In this case, the port should be configured in Alternate Function Output mode.
And obviously, the corresponding port should not be driven externally as it will be driven by
the software using the GPIO controller.
● For alternate function outputs, the port must be configured in Alternate Function Output
mode (Push-Pull or Open-Drain).
● For bidirectional Alternate Functions, the port bit must be configured in Alternate
Function Output mode (Push-Pull or Open-Drain). In this case the input driver is
configured in input floating mode
If you configure a port bit as Alternate Function Output, this disconnects the output register
and connects the pin to the output signal of an on-chip peripheral.
If software configures a GPIO pin as Alternate Function Output, but peripheral is not
activated, its output is not specified.

8.1.5 Software remapping of I/O alternate functions

To optimize the number of peripheral I/O functions for different device packages, it is
possible to remap some alternate functions to some other pins. This is achieved by
software, by programming the corresponding registers (refer to AFIO registers on page 158.
In that case, the alternate functions are no longer mapped to their original assignations.

8.1.6 GPIO locking mechanism

The locking mechanism allows the IO configuration to be frozen. When the LOCK sequence
has been applied on a port bit, it is no longer possible to modify the value of the port bit until
the next reset.

General-purpose and alternate-function I/Os (GPIOs and AFIOs) RM0008

8.1.7 Input configuration

When the I/O Port is programmed as Input:
● The Output Buffer is disabled
● The Schmitt Trigger Input is activated
● The weak pull-up and pull-down resistors are activated or not depending on input
configuration (pull-up, pull-down or floating):
● The data present on the I/O pin is sampled into the Input Data Register every APB2
clock cycle
● A read access to the Input Data Register obtains the I/O State.

8.1.8 Output configuration

When the I/O Port is programmed as Output:
● The Output Buffer is enabled:
– Open Drain Mode: A “0” in the Output register activates the N-MOS while a “1” in
the Output register leaves the port in Hi-Z. (the P-MOS is never activated)
– Push-Pull Mode: A “0” in the Output register activates the N-MOS while a “1” in the
Output register activates the P-MOS.
● The Schmitt Trigger Input is activated.
● The weak pull-up and pull-down resistors are disabled.
● The data present on the I/O pin is sampled into the Input Data Register every APB2
clock cycle
● A read access to the Input Data Register gets the I/O state in open drain mode
● A read access to the Output Data register gets the last written value in Push-Pull mode
The Figure 16 on page 143 shows the Output configuration of the I/O Port bit.

8.1.9 Alternate function configuration

When the I/O Port is programmed as Alternate Function:
● The Output Buffer is turned on in Open Drain or Push-Pull configuration
● The Output Buffer is driven by the signal coming from the peripheral (alternate function
out)
● The Schmitt Trigger Input is activated
● The weak pull-up and pull-down resistors are disabled.
● The data present on the I/O pin is sampled into the Input Data Register every APB2
clock cycle
● A read access to the Input Data Register gets the I/O state in open drain mode
● A read access to the Output Data register gets the last written value in Push-Pull mode
The Figure 17 on page 144 shows the Alternate Function Configuration of the I/O Port bit.
Also, refer to Section 8.4: AFIO registers on page 158 for further information.
A set of Alternate Function I/O registers allow you to remap some alternate functions to
different pins. Refer to

8.1.10 Analog input configuration

When the I/O Port is programmed as Analog Input Configuration:
● The Output Buffer is disabled.
● The Schmitt Trigger Input is de-activated providing zero consumption for every analog
value of the I/O pin. The output of the Schmitt Trigger is forced to a constant value (0).
● The weak pull-up and pull-down resistors are disabled.
● Read access to the Input Data Register gets the value “0”.

8.2.7 Port configuration lock register (GPIOx_LCKR) (x=A..G)

This register is used to lock the configuration of the port bits when a correct write sequence
is applied to bit 16 (LCKK). The value of bits [15:0] is used to lock the configuration of the
GPIO. During the write sequence, the value of LCKR[15:0] must not change. When the
LOCK sequence has been applied on a port bit it is no longer possible to modify the value of
the port bit until the next reset.
Each lock bit freezes the corresponding 4 bits of the control register (CRL, CRH).

8.3 Alternate function I/O and debug configuration (AFIO)

To optimize the number of peripherals available for the 64-pin or the 100-pin or the 144-pin
package, it is possible to remap some alternate functions to some other pins. This is
achieved by software, by programming the AF remap and debug I/O configuration register
(AFIO_MAPR) on page 159. In this case, the alternate functions are no longer mapped to
their original assignations.

8.3.1 Using OSC32_IN/OSC32_OUT pins as GPIO ports PC14/PC15

The LSE oscillator pins OSC32_IN and OSC32_OUT can be used as general-purpose I/O
PC14 and PC15, respectively, when the LSE oscillator is off. The LSE has priority over the
GP IOs function.
Note: 1 The PC14/PC15 GPIO functionality is lost when the 1.8 V domain is powered off (by
entering standby mode) or when the backup domain is supplied by VBAT (VDD no more
supplied). In this case the IOs are set in analog input mode.
2 Refer to the note on IO usage restrictions in Section 4.1.2 on page 54.

8.3.2 Using OSC_IN/OSC_OUT pins as GPIO ports PD0/PD1

The HSE oscillator pins OSC_IN/OSC_OUT can be used as general-purpose I/O PD0/PD1
by programming the PD01_REMAP bit in the AF remap and debug I/O configuration register
(AFIO_MAPR).
This remap is available only on 36-, 48- and 64-pin packages (PD0 and PD1 are available
on 100-pin and 144-pin packages, no need for remapping).
Note: The external interrupt/event function is not remapped. PD0 and PD1 cannot be used for
external interrupt/event generation on 36-, 48- and 64-pin packages.

D, remapping is not possible in devices delivered in 36-, 48- and 64-pin packages.

9 Interrupts and events

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This Section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.

9.1 Nested vectored interrupt controller (NVIC)

Features
● 68 maskable interrupt channels (not including the 16 interrupt lines of Cortex™-M3)
● 16 programmable priority levels (4 bits of interrupt priority are used)
● Low-latency exception and interrupt handling
● Power management control
● Implementation of System Control Registers
The NVIC and the processor core interface are closely coupled, which enables low latency
interrupt processing and efficient processing of late arriving interrupts.
All interrupts including the core exceptions are managed by the NVIC. For more information
on exceptions and NVIC programming see Chap 5 Exceptions & Chap 8 Nested Vectored
Interrupt Controller of the ARM Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual.

9.1.1 SysTick calibration value register

The SysTick calibration value is fixed to 9000, which gives a reference time base of 1 ms
with the SysTick clock set to 9 MHz (max HCLK/8).

9.1.2 Interrupt and exception vectors

9.2 External interrupt/event controller (EXTI)

The external interrupt/event controller consists of up to 20 edge detectors in connectivity line
devices, or 19 edge detectors in other devices for generating event/interrupt requests. Each
input line can be independently configured to select the type (pulse or pending) and the
corresponding trigger event (rising or falling or both). Each line can also masked
independently. A pending register maintains the status line of the interrupt requests

174/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Interrupts and events

9.2.1 Main features

The EXTI controller main features are the following:
● Independent trigger and mask on each interrupt/event line
● Dedicated status bit for each interrupt line
● Generation of up to 20 software event/interrupt requests
● Detection of external signal with pulse width lower than APB2 clock period. Refer to the
electrical characteristics section of the datasheet for details on this parameter.

9.2.3 Wakeup event management

The STM32F10xxx is able to handle external or internal events in order to wake up the core
(WFE). The wakeup event can be generated either by:
● enabling an interrupt in the peripheral control register but not in the NVIC, and enabling
the SEVONPEND bit in the Cortex-M3 System Control register. When the MCU
resumes from WFE, the peripheral interrupt pending bit and the peripheral NVIC IRQ
channel pending bit (in the NVIC interrupt clear pending register) have to be cleared.
● or configuring an external or internal EXTI line in event mode. When the CPU resumes
from WFE, it is not necessary to clear the peripheral interrupt pending bit or the NVIC
IRQ channel pending bit as the pending bit corresponding to the event line is not set.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 175/995

Interrupts and events RM0008

In connectivity line devices, Ethernet wakeup events also have the WFE wakeup capability.
To use an external line as a wakeup event, refer to Section 9.2.4: Functional description.

9.2.4 Functional description

To generate the interrupt, the interrupt line should be configured and enabled. This is done
by programming the two trigger registers with the desired edge detection and by enabling
the interrupt request by writing a ‘1’ to the corresponding bit in the interrupt mask register.
When the selected edge occurs on the external interrupt line, an interrupt request is
generated. The pending bit corresponding to the interrupt line is also set. This request is
reset by writing a ‘1’ in the pending register.
To generate the event, the event line should be configured and enabled. This is done by
programming the two trigger registers with the desired edge detection and by enabling the
event request by writing a ‘1’ to the corresponding bit in the event mask register. When the
selected edge occurs on the event line, an event pulse is generated. The pending bit
corresponding to the event line is not set
An interrupt/event request can also be generated by software by writing a ‘1’ in the software
interrupt/event register.

Hardware interrupt selection

To configure the 20 lines as interrupt sources, use the following procedure:
● Configure the mask bits of the 20 Interrupt lines (EXTI_IMR)
● Configure the Trigger Selection bits of the Interrupt lines (EXTI_RTSR and
EXTI_FTSR)
● Configure the enable and mask bits that control the NVIC IRQ channel mapped to the
External Interrupt Controller (EXTI) so that an interrupt coming from one of the 20 lines
can be correctly acknowledged.

Hardware event selection

To configure the 20 lines as event sources, use the following procedure:
● Configure the mask bits of the 20 Event lines (EXTI_EMR)
● Configure the Trigger Selection bits of the Event lines (EXTI_RTSR and EXTI_FTSR)

Software interrupt/event selection

The 20 lines can be configured as software interrupt/event lines. The following is the
procedure to generate a software interrupt.
● Configure the mask bits of the 20 Interrupt/Event lines (EXTI_IMR, EXTI_EMR)
● Set the required bit of the software interrupt register (EXTI_SWIER)

9.2.5 External interrupt/event line mapping

The 112 GPIOs are connected to the 16 external interrupt/event lines in the following
manner:

10 DMA controller (DMA)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.

10.1 DMA introduction

Direct memory access (DMA) is used in order to provide high-speed data transfer between
peripherals and memory as well as memory to memory. Data can be quickly moved by DMA
without any CPU actions. This keeps CPU resources free for other operations.
The two DMA controllers have 12 channels in total (7 for DMA1 and 5 for DMA2), each
dedicated to managing memory access requests from one or more peripherals. It has an
arbiter for handling the priority between DMA requests.

10.2 DMA main features

● 12 independently configurable channels (requests): 7 for DMA1 and 5 for DMA2
● Each of the 12 channels is connected to dedicated hardware DMA requests, software
trigger is also supported on each channel. This configuration is done by software.
● Priorities between requests from channels of one DMA are software programmable (4
levels consisting of very high, high, medium, low) or hardware in case of equality
(request 1 has priority over request 2, etc.)
● Independent source and destination transfer size (byte, half word, word), emulating
packing and unpacking. Source/destination addresses must be aligned on the data
size.
● Support for circular buffer management
● 3 event flags (DMA Half Transfer, DMA Transfer complete and DMA Transfer Error)
logically ORed together in a single interrupt request for each channel
● Memory-to-memory transfer
● Peripheral-to-memory and memory-to-peripheral, and peripheral-to-peripheral
transfers
● Access to Flash, SRAM, peripheral SRAM, APB1, APB2 and AHB peripherals as
source and destination
● Programmable number of data to be transferred: up to 65536
The block diagram is shown in Figure 22.

1. The DMA2 controller is available only in high-density and connectifity line devices.
2. SPI/I2S3, UART4, TIM5, TIM6, TIM7 and DAC DMA requests are available only in high-density and
connectivity line devices.
3. ADC3, SDIO and TIM8 DMA requests are available only in high-density devices.

10.3 DMA functional description

The DMA controller performs direct memory transfer by sharing the system bus with the
Cortex™-M3 core. The DMA request may stop the CPU access to the system bus for some
bus cycles, when the CPU and DMA are targeting the same destination (memory or
peripheral). The bus matrix implements round-robin scheduling, thus ensuring at least half
of the system bus bandwidth (both to memory and peripheral) for the CPU.

10.3.1 DMA transactions

After an event, the peripheral sends a request signal to the DMA Controller. The DMA
controller serves the request depending on the channel priorities. As soon as the DMA
Controller accesses the peripheral, an Acknowledge is sent to the peripheral by the DMA
Controller. The peripheral releases its request as soon as it gets the Acknowledge from the
DMA Controller. Once the request is deasserted by the peripheral, the DMA Controller

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 183/995

DMA controller (DMA) RM0008

release the Acknowledge. If there are more requests, the peripheral can initiate the next
transaction.
In summary, each DMA transfer consists of three operations:
● The loading of data from the peripheral data register or a location in memory
addressed through an internal current peripheral/memory address register. The start
address used for the first transfer is the base peripheral/memory address programmed
in the DMA_CPARx or DMA_CMARx register
● The storage of the data loaded to the peripheral data register or a location in memory
addressed through an internal current peripheral/memory address register. The start
address used for the first transfer is the base peripheral/memory address programmed
in the DMA_CPARx or DMA_CMARx register
● The post-decrementing of the DMA_CNDTRx register, which contains the number of
transactions that have still to be performed.

10.3.2 Arbiter
The arbiter manages the channel requests based on their priority and launches the
peripheral/memory access sequences.
The priorities are managed in two stages:
● Software: each channel priority can be configured in the DMA_CCRx register. There
are four levels:
– Very high priority
– High priority
– Medium priority
– Low priority
● Hardware: if 2 requests have the same software priority level, the channel with the
lowest number will get priority versus the channel with the highest number. For
example, channel 2 gets priority over channel 4.
Note: In high-density and connectivity line devices, the DMA1 controller has priority over the
DMA2 controller.

10.3.3 DMA channels

Each channel can handle DMA transfer between a peripheral register located at a fixed
address and a memory address. The amount of data to be transferred (up to 65535) is
programmable. The register which contains the amount of data items to be transferred is
decremented after each transaction.

Programmable data sizes

Transfer data sizes of the peripheral and memory are fully programmable through the PSIZE
and MSIZE bits in the DMA_CCRx register.

Pointer incrementation
Peripheral and memory pointers can optionally be automatically post-incremented after
each transaction depending on the PINC and MINC bits in the DMA_CCRx register. If
incremented mode is enabled, the address of the next transfer will be the address of the
previous one incremented by 1, 2 or 4 depending on the chosen data size. The first transfer
address is the one programmed in the DMA_CPARx/DMA_CMARx registers. During

184/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 DMA controller (DMA)

transfer operations, these registers keep the initially programmed value. The current transfer
addresses (in the current internal peripheral/memory address register) are not accessible by
software.
If the channel is configured in noncircular mode, no DMA request is served after the last
transfer (that is once the number of data items to be transferred has reached zero). In order
to reload a new number of data items to be transferred into the DMA_CNDTRx register, the
DMA channel must be disabled.
Note: If a DMA channel is disabled, the DMA registers are not reset. The DMA channel registers
(DMA_CCRx, DMA_CPARx and DMA_CMARx) retain the initial values programmed during
the channel configuration phase.
In circular mode, after the last transfer, the DMA_CNDTRx register is automatically reloaded
with the initially programmed value. The current internal address registers are reloaded with
the base address vaules from the DMA_CPARx/DMA_CMARx registers.

Channel configuration procedure

The following sequence should be followed to configure a DMA channelx (where x is the
channel number).
1. Set the peripheral register address in the DMA_CPARx register. The data will be
moved from/ to this address to/ from the memory after the peripheral event.
2. Set the memory address in the DMA_CMARx register. The data will be written to or
read from this memory after the peripheral event.
3. Configure the total number of data to be transferred in the DMA_CNDTRx register.
After each peripheral event, this value will be decremented.
4. Configure the channel priority using the PL[1:0] bits in the DMA_CCRx register
5. Configure data transfer direction, circular mode, peripheral & memory incremented
mode, peripheral & memory data size, and interrupt after half and/or full transfer in the
DMA_CCRx register
6. Activate the channel by setting the ENABLE bit in the DMA_CCRx register.
As soon as the channel is enabled, it can serve any DMA request from the peripheral
connected on the channel.
Once half of the bytes are transferred, the half-transfer flag (HTIF) is set and an interrupt is
generated if the Half-Transfer Interrupt Enable bit (HTIE) is set. At the end of the transfer,
the Transfer Complete Flag (TCIF) is set and an interrupt is generated if the Transfer
Complete Interrupt Enable bit (TCIE) is set.

Circular mode
Circular mode is available to handle circular buffers and continuous data flows (e.g. ADC
scan mode). This feature can be enabled using the CIRC bit in the DMA_CCRx register.
When circular mode is activated, the number of data to be transferred is automatically
reloaded with the initial value programmed during the channel configuration phase, and the
DMA requests continue to be served.

Memory-to-memory mode
The DMA channels can also work without being triggered by a request from a peripheral.
This mode is called Memory to Memory mode.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 185/995

DMA controller (DMA) RM0008

If the MEM2MEM bit in the DMA_CCRx register is set, then the channel initiates transfers as
soon as it is enabled by software by setting the Enable bit (EN) in the DMA_CCRx register.
The transfer stops once the DMA_CNDTRx register reaches zero. Memory to Memory
mode may not be used at the same time as Circular mode.

10.3.4 Programmable data width, data alignment and endians

When PSIZE and MSIZE are not equal, the DMA performs some data alignments as
described in Table 55: Programmable data width & endian behavior (when bits PINC =
MINC = 1).

Addressing an AHB peripheral that does not support byte or halfword write
operations
When the DMA initiates an AHB byte or halfword write operation, the data are duplicated on
the unused lanes of the HWDATA[31:0] bus. So when the used AHB slave peripheral does

186/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

not support byte or halfword write operations (when HSIZE is not used by the peripheral)
and does not generate any error, the DMA writes the 32 HWDATA bits as shown in the two
examples below:
● To write the halfword “0xABCD”, the DMA sets the HWDATA bus to “0xABCDABCD”
with HSIZE = HalfWord
● To write the byte “0xAB”, the DMA sets the HWDATA bus to “0xABABABAB” with
HSIZE = Byte
Assuming that the AHB/APB bridge is an AHB 32-bit slave peripheral that does not take the
HSIZE data into account, it will transform any AHB byte or halfword operation into a 32-bit
APB operation in the following manner:
● an AHB byte write operation of the data “0xB0” to 0x0 (or to 0x1, 0x2 or 0x3) will be
converted to an APB word write operation of the data “0xB0B0B0B0” to 0x0
● an AHB halfword write operation of the data “0xB1B0” to 0x0 (or to 0x2) will be
converted to an APB word write operation of the data “0xB1B0B1B0” to 0x0
For instance, if you want to write the APB backup registers (16-bit registers aligned to a 32-
bit address boundary), you must configure the memory source size (MSIZE) to “16-bit” and
the peripheral destination size (PSIZE) to “32-bit”.

10.3.5 Error management

A DMA transfer error can be generated by reading from or writing to a reserved address
space. When a DMA transfer error occurs during a DMA read or a write access, the faulty
channel is automatically disabled through a hardware clear of its EN bit in the corresponding
Channel configuration register (DMA_CCRx). The channel's transfer error interrupt flag
(TEIF) in the DMA_IFR register is set and an interrupt is generated if the transfer error
interrupt enable bit (TEIE) in the DMA_CCRx register is set.

10.3.6 Interrupts
An interrupt can be produced on a Half-transfer, Transfer complete or Transfer error for each
DMA channel. Separate interrupt enable bits are available for flexibility.

Table 56. DMA interrupt requests

Interrupt event Event flag Enable Control bit

Half-transfer HTIF HTIE

Transfer complete TCIF TCIE
Transfer error TEIF TEIE

Note: In high-density devices, DMA2 Channel4 and DMA2 Channel5 interrupts are mapped onto
the same interrupt vector. In connectivity line devices, DMA2 Channel4 and DMA2
Channel5 interrupts have separate interrupt vectors. All other DMA1 and DMA2 Channel
interrupts have their own interrupt vector.

10.3.7 DMA request mapping

DMA1 controller
The 7 requests from the peripherals (TIMx[1,2,3,4], ADC1, SPI1, SPI/I2S2, I2Cx[1,2] and
USARTx[1,2,3]) are simply logically ORed before entering DMA1, this means that only one
request must be enabled at a time. Refer to Figure 23: DMA1 request mapping.
The peripheral DMA requests can be independently activated/de-activated by programming
the DMA control bit in the registers of the corresponding peripheral.

The 5 requests from the peripherals (TIMx[5,6,7,8], ADC3, SPI/I2S3, UART4,

means that only one request must be enabled at a time. Refer to Figure 24: DMA2 request
mapping.
The peripheral DMA requests can be independently activated/de-activated by programming
the DMA control bit in the registers of the corresponding peripheral.
Note: The DMA2 controller and its relative requests are available only in high-density and
connectivity line devices.

11.1 ADC introduction

The 12-bit ADC is a successive approximation analog-to-digital converter. It has up to 18
multiplexed channels allowing it measure signals from 16 external and two internal sources.
A/D conversion of the various channels can be performed in single, continuous, scan or
discontinuous mode. The result of the ADC is stored in a left-aligned or right-aligned 16-bit
data register.
The analog watchdog feature allows the application to detect if the input voltage goes
outside the user-defined high or low thresholds.
The ADC input clock is generated from the PCLK2 clock divided by a prescaler and it must
not exceed 14 MHz, refer to Figure 8: Clock tree for low-, medium- and high-density devices,
and to Figure 11: Clock tree for connectivity line devices.

11.3.1 ADC on-off control

The ADC can be powered-on by setting the ADON bit in the ADC_CR2 register. When the
ADON bit is set for the first time, it wakes up the ADC from Power Down mode.
Conversion starts when ADON bit is set for a second time by software after ADC power-up
time (tSTAB).
You can stop conversion and put the ADC in power down mode by resetting the ADON bit. In
this mode the ADC consumes almost no power (only a few µA).

11.3.2 ADC clock

The ADCCLK clock provided by the Clock Controller is synchronous with the PCLK2 (APB2
clock). The RCC controller has a dedicated programmable prescaler for the ADC clock, refer
to Low-, medium- and high-density reset and clock control (RCC) on page 74 for more
details.

11.3.3 Channel selection

There are 16 multiplexed channels. It is possible to organize the conversions in two groups:
regular and injected. A group consists of a sequence of conversions which can be done on
any channel and in any order. For instance, it is possible to do the conversion in the
following order: Ch3, Ch8, Ch2, Ch2, Ch0, Ch2, Ch2, Ch15.
● The regular group is composed of up to 16 conversions. The regular channels and
their order in the conversion sequence must be selected in the ADC_SQRx registers.
The total number of conversions in the regular group must be written in the L[3:0] bits in
the ADC_SQR1 register.
● The injected group is composed of up to 4 conversions. The injected channels and
their order in the conversion sequence must be selected in the ADC_JSQR register.
The total number of conversions in the injected group must be written in the L[1:0] bits
in the ADC_JSQR register.
If the ADC_SQRx or ADC_JSQR registers are modified during a conversion, the current
conversion is reset and a new start pulse is sent to the ADC to convert the new chosen
group.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 201/995

Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) RM0008

Temperature sensor/VREFINT internal channels

The Temperature sensor is connected to channel ADCx_IN16 and the internal reference
voltage VREFINT is connected to ADCx_IN17. These two internal channels can be selected
and converted as injected or regular channels.
Note: The sensor and VREFINT are only available on the master ADC1 peripheral.

11.3.4 Single conversion mode

In Single conversion mode the ADC does one conversion. This mode is started either by
setting the ADON bit in the ADC_CR2 register (for a regular channel only) or by external
trigger (for a regular or injected channel), while the CONT bit is 0.
Once the conversion of the selected channel is complete:
● If a regular channel was converted:
– The converted data is stored in the 16-bit ADC_DR register
– The EOC (End Of Conversion) flag is set
– and an interrupt is generated if the EOCIE is set.
● If an injected channel was converted:
– The converted data is stored in the 16-bit ADC_DRJ1 register
– The JEOC (End Of Conversion Injected) flag is set
– and an interrupt is generated if the JEOCIE bit is set.
The ADC is then stopped.

11.3.5 Continuous conversion mode

In continuous conversion mode ADC starts another conversion as soon as it finishes one.
This mode is started either by external trigger or by setting the ADON bit in the ADC_CR2
register, while the CONT bit is 1.
After each conversion:
● If a regular channel was converted:
– The converted data is stored in the 16-bit ADC_DR register
– The EOC (End Of Conversion) flag is set
– An interrupt is generated if the EOCIE is set.
● If an injected channel was converted:
– The converted data is stored in the 16-bit ADC_DRJ1 register
– The JEOC (End Of Conversion Injected) flag is set
– An interrupt is generated if the JEOCIE bit is set.

11.3.6 Timing diagram

As shown in Figure 26, the ADC needs a stabilization time of tSTAB before it starts
converting accurately. After the start of ADC conversion and after 14 clock cycles, the EOC
flag is set and the 16-bit ADC Data register contains the result of the conversion.

11.3.7 Analog watchdog

The AWD analog watchdog status bit is set if the analog voltage converted by the ADC is
below a low threshold or above a high threshold. These thresholds are programmed in the
12 least significant bits of the ADC_HTR and ADC_LTR 16-bit registers. An interrupt can be
enabled by using the AWDIE bit in the ADC_CR1 register.
The threshold value is independent of the alignment selected by the ALIGN bit in the
ADC_CR2 register. The comparison is done before the alignment (see Section 11.5).
The analog watchdog can be enabled on one or more channels by configuring the
ADC_CR1 register as shown in Table 61.

11.3.8 Scan mode

This mode is used to scan a group of analog channels.
Scan mode can be selected by setting the SCAN bit in the ADC_CR1 register. Once this bit
is set, ADC scans all the channels selected in the ADC_SQRx registers (for regular
channels) or in the ADC_JSQR (for injected channels). A single conversion is performed for
each channel of the group. After each end of conversion the next channel of the group is
converted automatically. If the CONT bit is set, conversion does not stop at the last selected
group channel but continues again from the first selected group channel.
If the DMA bit is set, the direct memory access controller is used to transfer the converted
data of regular group channels to SRAM after each EOC.
The injected channel converted data is always stored in the ADC_JDRx registers.

11.3.9 Injected channel management

Triggered injection
To use triggered injection, the JAUTO bit must be cleared and SCAN bit must be set in the
ADC_CR1 register.
1. Start conversion of a group of regular channels either by external trigger or by setting
the ADON bit in the ADC_CR2 register.
2. If an external injected trigger occurs during the regular group channel conversion, the
current conversion is reset and the injected channel sequence is converted in Scan
once mode.
3. Then, the regular group channel conversion is resumed from the last interrupted
regular conversion. If a regular event occurs during an injected conversion, it doesn’t
interrupt it but the regular sequence is executed at the end of the injected sequence.
Figure 28 shows the timing diagram.
Note: When using triggered injection, one must ensure that the interval between trigger events is
longer than the injection sequence. For instance, if the sequence length is 28 ADC clock
cycles (that is two conversions with a 1.5 clock-period sampling time), the minimum interval
between triggers must be 29 ADC clock cycles.

Auto-injection
If the JAUTO bit is set, then the injected group channels are automatically converted after
the regular group channels. This can be used to convert a sequence of up to 20 conversions
programmed in the ADC_SQRx and ADC_JSQR registers.
In this mode, external trigger on injected channels must be disabled.
If the CONT bit is also set in addition to the JAUTO bit, regular channels followed by injected
channels are continuously converted.
For ADC clock prescalers ranging from 4 to 8, a delay of 1 ADC clock period is automatically
inserted when switching from regular to injected sequence (respectively injected to regular).
When the ADC clock prescaler is set to 2, the delay is 2 ADC clock periods.
Note: It is not possible to use both auto-injected and discontinuous modes simultaneously.

1. The maximum latency value can be found in the electrical characteristics of the STM32F101xx and
STM32F103xx datasheets.

11.3.10 Discontinuous mode

Regular group
This mode is enabled by setting the DISCEN bit in the ADC_CR1 register. It can be used to
convert a short sequence of n conversions (n <=8) which is a part of the sequence of
conversions selected in the ADC_SQRx registers. The value of n is specified by writing to
the DISCNUM[2:0] bits in the ADC_CR1 register.
When an external trigger occurs, it starts the next n conversions selected in the ADC_SQRx
registers until all the conversions in the sequence are done. The total sequence length is
defined by the L[3:0] bits in the ADC_SQR1 register.
Example:
n = 3, channels to be converted = 0, 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 10
1st trigger: sequence converted 0, 1, 2
2nd trigger: sequence converted 3, 6, 7
3rd trigger: sequence converted 9, 10 and an EOC event generated
4th trigger: sequence converted 0, 1, 2
Note: When a regular group is converted in discontinuous mode, no rollover will occur.
When all sub groups are converted, the next trigger starts conversion of the first sub-group.
In the example above, the 4th trigger reconverts the 1st sub-group channels 0, 1 and 2.

Injected group
This mode is enabled by setting the JDISCEN bit in the ADC_CR1 register. It can be used to
convert the sequence selected in the ADC_JSQR register, channel by channel, after an
external trigger event.
When an external trigger occurs, it starts the next channel conversions selected in the
ADC_JSQR registers until all the conversions in the sequence are done. The total sequence
length is defined by the JL[1:0] bits in the ADC_JSQR register.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 205/995

Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) RM0008

Example:
n = 1, channels to be converted = 1, 2, 3
1st trigger: channel 1 converted
2nd trigger: channel 2 converted
3rd trigger: channel 3 converted and EOC and JEOC events generated
4th trigger: channel 1
Note: 1 When all injected channels are converted, the next trigger starts the conversion of the first
injected channel. In the example above, the 4th trigger reconverts the 1st injected channel
1.
2 It is not possible to use both auto-injected and discontinuous modes simultaneously.
3 The user must avoid setting discontinuous mode for both regular and injected groups
together. Discontinuous mode must be enabled only for one group conversion.

11.4 Calibration
The ADC has an built-in self calibration mode. Calibration significantly reduces accuracy
errors due to internal capacitor bank variations. During calibration, an error-correction code
(digital word) is calculated for each capacitor, and during all subsequent conversions, the
error contribution of each capacitor is removed using this code.
Calibration is started by setting the CAL bit in the ADC_CR2 register. Once calibration is
over, the CAL bit is reset by hardware and normal conversion can be performed. It is
recommended to calibrate the ADC once at power-on. The calibration codes are stored in
the ADC_DR as soon as the calibration phase ends.
Note: 1 It is recommended to perform a calibration after each power-up.
2 Before starting a calibration the ADC must have been in power-off state (ADON bit = ‘0’) for
at least two ADC clock cycles.

11.5 Data alignment

ALIGN bit in the ADC_CR2 register selects the alignment of data stored after conversion.
Data can be left or right aligned as shown in Figure 30. and Figure 31.
The injected group channels converted data value is decreased by the user-defined offset
written in the ADC_JOFRx registers so the result can be a negative value. The SEXT bit is
the extended sign value.
For regular group channels no offset is subtracted so only twelve bits are significant.

11.6 Channel-by-channel programmable sample time

ADC samples the input voltage for a number of ADC_CLK cycles which can be modified us-
ing the SMP[2:0] bits in the ADC_SMPR1 and ADC_SMPR2 registers. Each channel can be
sampled with a different sample time.
The total conversion time is calculated as follows:
Tconv = Sampling time + 12.5 cycles
Example:
With an ADCCLK = 14 MHz and a sampling time of 1.5 cycles:
Tconv = 1.5 + 12.5 = 14 cycles = 1µs

11.7 Conversion on external trigger

Conversion can be triggered by an external event (e.g. timer capture, EXTI line). If the EXT-
TRIG control bit is set then external events are able to trigger a conversion. The EXT-
SEL[2:0] and JEXTSEL[2:0] control bits allow the application to select decide which out of 8
possible events can trigger conversion for the regular and injected groups.
Note: When an external trigger is selected for ADC regular or injected conversion, only the rising
edge of the signal can start the conversion.

The software source trigger events can be generated by setting a bit in a register

A regular group conversion can be interrupted by an injected trigger.

11.8 DMA request

Since converted regular channels value are stored in a unique data register, it is necessary
to use DMA for conversion of more than one regular channel. This avoids the loss of data
already stored in the ADC_DR register.
Only the end of conversion of a regular channel generates a DMA request, which allows the
transfer of its converted data from the ADC_DR register to the destination location selected
by the user.
Note: Only ADC1 and ADC3 have this DMA capability. ADC2-converted data can be transferred in
dual ADC mode using DMA thanks to master ADC1.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 209/995

Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) RM0008

11.9 Dual ADC mode

In devices with two ADCs or more, dual ADC mode can be used (see Figure 32).
In dual ADC mode the start of conversion is triggered alternately or simultaneously by the
ADC1 master to the ADC2 slave, depending on the mode selected by the DUALMOD[2:0]
bits in the ADC1_CR1 register.
Note: In dual mode, when configuring conversion to be triggered by an external event, the user
must set the trigger for the master only and set a software trigger for the slave to prevent
spurious triggers to start unwanted slave conversion. However, external triggers must be
enabled on both master and slave ADCs.
The following six possible modes are implemented:
– Injected simultaneous mode
– Regular simultaneous mode
– Fast interleaved mode
– Slow interleaved mode
– Alternate trigger mode
– Independent mode
It is also possible to use the previous modes combined in the following ways:
– Injected simultaneous mode + Regular simultaneous mode
– Regular simultaneous mode + Alternate trigger mode
– Injected simultaneous mode + Interleaved mode
Note: In dual ADC mode, to read the slave converted data on the master data register, the DMA
bit must be enabled even if it is not used to transfer converted regular channel data.

1. External triggers are present on ADC2 but are not shown for the purposes of this diagram.
2. In some dual ADC modes, the ADC1 data register (ADC1_DR) contains both ADC1 and ADC2 regular converted data over
the entire 32 bits.

11.9.1 Injected simultaneous mode

This mode converts an injected channel group. The source of external trigger comes from
the injected group mux of ADC1 (selected by the JEXTSEL[2:0] bits in the ADC1_CR2
register). A simultaneous trigger is provided to ADC2.
Note: Do not convert the same channel on the two ADCs (no overlapping sampling times for the
two ADCs when converting the same channel).
At the end of conversion event on ADC1 or ADC2:
● The converted data is stored in the ADC_JDRx registers of each ADC interface.
● An JEOC interrupt is generated (if enabled on one of the two ADC interfaces) when the
ADC1/ADC2 injected channels are all converted.
Note: In simultaneous mode, one must convert sequences with the same length or ensure that the
interval between triggers is longer than the longest of the 2 sequences. Otherwise, the ADC
with the shortest sequence may restart while the ADC with the longest sequence is
completing the previous conversions.

11.9.2 Regular simultaneous mode

This mode is performed on a regular channel group. The source of the external trigger
comes from the regular group mux of ADC1 (selected by the EXTSEL[2:0] bits in the
ADC1_CR2 register). A simultaneous trigger is provided to the ADC2.
Note: Do not convert the same channel on the two ADCs (no overlapping sampling times for the
two ADCs when converting the same channel).
At the end of conversion event on ADC1 or ADC2:
● A 32-bit DMA transfer request is generated (if DMA bit is set) which transfers to SRAM
the ADC1_DR 32-bit register containing the ADC2 converted data in the upper
halfword and the ADC1 converted data in the lower halfword.
● An EOC interrupt is generated (if enabled on one of the two ADC interfaces) when
ADC1/ADC2 regular channels are all converted.
Note: In regular simultaneous mode, one must convert sequences with the same length or ensure
that the interval between triggers is longer than the longest of the 2 sequences. Otherwise,
the ADC with the shortest sequence may restart while the ADC with the longest sequence is
completing the previous conversions.

11.9.3 Fast interleaved mode

This mode can be started only on a regular channel group (usually one channel). The
source of external trigger comes from the regular channel mux of ADC1. After an external
trigger occurs:
● ADC2 starts immediately and
● ADC1 starts after a delay of 7 ADC clock cycles.
If CONT bit is set on both ADC1 and ADC2 the selected regular channels of both ADCs are
continuously converted.
After an EOC interrupt is generated by ADC1 (if enabled through the EOCIE bit) a 32-bit
DMA transfer request is generated (if the DMA bit is set) which transfers to SRAM the
ADC1_DR 32-bit register containing the ADC2 converted data in the upper halfword and the
ADC1 converted data in the lower halfword.
Note: The maximum sampling time allowed is <7 ADCCLK cycles to avoid the overlap between
ADC1 and ADC2 sampling phases in the event that they convert the same channel.

11.9.4 Slow interleaved mode

This mode can be started only on a regular channel group (only one channel). The source of
external trigger comes from regular channel mux of ADC1. After external trigger occurs:
● ADC2 starts immediately and
● ADC1 starts after a delay of 14 ADC clock cycles.
● ADC2 starts after a second delay of 14 ADC cycles, and so on.
Note: The maximum sampling time allowed is <14 ADCCLK cycles to avoid an overlap with the
next conversion.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 213/995

Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) RM0008

After an EOC interrupt is generated by ADC1 (if enabled through the EOCIE bit) a 32-bit
DMA transfer request is generated (if the DMA bit is set) which transfers to SRAM the
ADC1_DR 32-bit register containing the ADC2 converted data in the upper halfword and the
ADC1 converted data in the lower halfword.
A new ADC2 start is automatically generated after 28 ADC clock cycles
CONT bit can not be set in the mode since it continuously converts the selected regular
channel.
Note: The application must ensure that no external trigger for injected channel occurs when
interleaved mode is enabled.

11.9.5 Alternate trigger mode

This mode can be started only on an injected channel group. The source of external trigger
comes from the injected group mux of ADC1.
● When the 1st trigger occurs, all injected group channels in ADC1 are converted.
● When the 2nd trigger arrives, all injected group channels in ADC2 are converted
● and so on.
A JEOC interrupt, if enabled, is generated after all injected group channels of ADC1 are
converted.
A JEOC interrupt, if enabled, is generated after all injected group channels of ADC2 are
converted.
If another external trigger occurs after all injected group channels have been converted then
the alternate trigger process restarts by converting ADC1 injected group channels.

If the injected discontinuous mode is enabled for both ADC1 and ADC2:
● When the 1st trigger occurs, the first injected channel in ADC1 is converted.
● When the 2nd trigger arrives, the first injected channel in ADC2 are converted
● and so on....
A JEOC interrupt, if enabled, is generated after all injected group channels of ADC1 are

11.9.6 Independent mode

In this mode the dual ADC synchronization is bypassed and each ADC interfaces works
independently.

11.9.7 Combined regular/injected simultaneous mode

It is possible to interrupt simultaneous conversion of a regular group to start simultaneous
conversion of an injected group.
Note: In combined regular/injected simultaneous mode, one must convert sequences with the
same length or ensure that the interval between triggers is longer than the longest of the 2
sequences. Otherwise, the ADC with the shortest sequence may restart while the ADC with
the longest sequence is completing the previous conversions.

11.9.8 Combined regular simultaneous + alternate trigger mode

It is possible to interrupt regular group simultaneous conversion to start alternate trigger
conversion of an injected group. Figure 39 shows the behavior of an alternate trigger
interrupting a regular simultaneous conversion.
The injected alternate conversion is immediately started after the injected event arrives. If
regular conversion is already running, in order to ensure synchronization after the injected
conversion, the regular conversion of both (master/slave) ADCs is stopped and resumed
synchronously at the end of the injected conversion.
Note: In combined regular simultaneous + alternate trigger mode, one must convert sequences
with the same length or ensure that the interval between triggers is longer than the longest
of the 2 sequences. Otherwise, the ADC with the shortest sequence may restart while the
ADC with the longest sequence is completing the previous conversions.

11.9.9 Combined injected simultaneous + interleaved

It is possible to interrupt an interleaved conversion with an injected event. In this case the
interleaved conversion is interrupted and the injected conversion starts, at the end of the
injected sequence the interleaved conversion is resumed. Figure 41 shows the behavior
using an example.
Note: When the ADC clock prescaler is set to 4, the interleaved mode does not recover with
evenly spaced sampling periods: the sampling interval is 8 ADC clock periods followed by 6
ADC clock periods, instead of 7 clock periods followed by 7 clock periods.

11.10 Temperature sensor

The temperature sensor can be used to measure the ambient temperature (TA) of the
device.
The temperature sensor is internally connected to the ADCx_IN16 input channel which is
used to convert the sensor output voltage into a digital value. The recommended sampling
time for the temperature sensor is 17.1 µs.
The block diagram of the temperature sensor is shown in Figure 42.
When not in use, this sensor can be put in power down mode.
Note: The TSVREFE bit must be set to enable both internal channels: ADCx_IN16 (temperature
sensor) and ADCx_IN17 (VREFINT) conversion.
The temperature sensor output voltage changes linearly with temperature. The offset of this
line varies from chip to chip due to process variation (up to 45 °C from one chip to another).
The internal temperature sensor is more suited to applications that detect temperature
variations instead of absolute temperatures. If accurate temperature readings are needed,
an external temperature sensor part should be used.

Reading the temperature

To use the sensor:
1. Select the ADCx_IN16 input channel.
2. Select a sample time of 17.1 µs
3. Set the TSVREFE bit in the ADC control register 2 (ADC_CR2) to wake up the
temperature sensor from power down mode.
4. Start the ADC conversion by setting the ADON bit (or by external trigger).
5. Read the resulting VSENSE data in the ADC data register
6. Obtain the temperature using the following formula:
Temperature (in °C) = {(V25 - VSENSE) / Avg_Slope} + 25.
Where,
V25 = VSENSE value for 25° C and
Avg_Slope = Average Slope for curve between Temperature vs. VSENSE (given in
mV/° C or µV/ °C).
Refer to the Electrical characteristics section for the actual values of V25 and
Avg_Slope.
Note: The sensor has a startup time after waking from power down mode before it can output
VSENSE at the correct level. The ADC also has a startup time after power-on, so to minimize
the delay, the ADON and TSVREFE bits should be set at the same time.

11.11 ADC interrupts

An interrupt can be produced on end of conversion for regular and injected groups and
when the analog watchdog status bit is set. Separate interrupt enable bits are available for
flexibility.
Note: ADC1 and ADC2 interrupts are mapped onto the same interrupt vector. ADC3 interrupts are
mapped onto a separate interrupt vector.
Two other flags are present in the ADC_SR register, but there is no interrupt associated with
them:
● JSTRT (Start of conversion for injected group channels)
● STRT (Start of conversion for regular group channels)

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This section applies to connectivity line and high-density STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx
devices only.

12.1 DAC introduction

The DAC module is a 12-bit, voltage output digital-to-analog converter. The DAC can be
configured in 8- or 12-bit mode and may be used in conjunction with the DMA controller. In
12-bit mode, the data could be left- or right-aligned. The DAC has two output channels, each
with its own converter. In dual DAC channel mode, conversions could be done
independently or simultaneously when both channels are grouped together for synchronous
update operation. An input reference pin VREF+ is available for better resolution.

12.2 DAC main features

● Two DAC converters: one output channel each
● 8-bit or 12-bit monotonic output
● Left or right data alignment in 12-bit mode
● Synchronized update capability
● Noise-wave generation
● Triangular-wave generation
● Dual DAC channel independent or simultaneous conversions
● DMA capability for each channel
● External triggers for conversion
● Input voltage reference VREF+
The block diagram of a DAC channel is shown in Figure 43 and the pin description is given
in Table 68.

12.3 DAC functional description

12.3.1 DAC channel enable

Each DAC channel can be powered on by setting its corresponding ENx bit in the DAC_CR
register. The DAC channel is then enabled after a startup time tWAKEUP.
Note: The ENx bit enables the analog DAC Channelx macrocell only. The DAC Channelx digital
interface is enabled even if the ENx bit is reset.

12.3.2 DAC output buffer enable

The DAC integrates two output buffers that can be used to reduce the output impedance,
and to drive external loads directly without having to add an external operational amplifier.
Each DAC channel output buffer can be enabled and disabled using the corresponding
BOFFx bit in the DAC_CR register.

12.3.3 DAC data format

Depending on the selected configuration mode, the data has to be written in the specified
register as described below:
● Single DAC channelx, there are three possibilities:
– 8-bit right alignment: user has to load data into DAC_DHR8Rx [7:0] bits (stored
into DHRx[11:4] bits)
– 12-bit left alignment: user has to load data into DAC_DHR12Lx [15:4] bits (stored
into DHRx[11:0] bits)
– 12-bit right alignment: user has to load data into DAC_DHR12Rx [11:0] bits
(stored into DHRx[11:0] bits)
Depending on the loaded DAC_DHRyyyx register, the data written by the user will be shifted
and stored into the DHRx (Data Holding Registerx, that are internal non-memory-mapped
registers). The DHRx register will then be loaded into the DORx register either
automatically, by software trigger or by an external event trigger.

● Dual DAC channels, there are three possibilities:

– 8-bit right alignment: data for DAC channel1 to be loaded into DAC_DHR8RD [7:0]
bits (stored into DHR1[11:4] bits) and data for DAC channel2 to be loaded into
DAC_DHR8RD [15:8] bits (stored into DHR2[11:4] bits)
– 12-bit left alignment: data for DAC channel1 to be loaded into DAC_DHR12LD
[15:4] bits (stored into DHR1[11:0] bits) and data for DAC channel2 to be loaded
into DAC_DHR12LD [31:20] bits (stored into DHR2[11:0] bits)
– 12-bit right alignment: data for DAC channel1 to be loaded into DAC_DHR12RD
[11:0] bits (stored into DHR1[11:0] bits) and data for DAC channel2 to be loaded
into DAC_DHR12LD [27:16] bits (stored into DHR2[11:0] bits)
Depending on the loaded DAC_DHRyyyD register, the data written by the user will be
shifted and stored into the DHR1 and DHR2 (Data Holding Registers, that are internal non-
memory-mapped registers). The DHR1 and DHR2 registers will then be loaded into the
DOR1 and DOR2 registers, respectively, either automatically, by software trigger or by an
external event trigger.

12.3.4 DAC conversion

The DAC_DORx cannot be written directly and any data transfer to the DAC channelx must
be performed by loading the DAC_DHRx register (write on DAC_DHR8Rx, DAC_DHR12Lx,
DAC_DHR12Rx, DAC_DHR8RD, DAC_DHR12LD or DAC_DHR12LD).
Data stored into the DAC_DHRx register are automatically transferred to the DAC_DORx
register after one APB1 clock cycle, if no hardware trigger is selected (TENx bit in DAC_CR
register is reset). However, when a hardware trigger is selected (TENx bit in DAC_CR
register is set) and a trigger occurs, the transfer is performed three APB1 clock cycles later.
When DAC_DORx is loaded with the DAC_DHRx contents, the analog output voltage
becomes available after a time of tSETTLING that depends on the power supply voltage and
the analog output load.

12.3.5 DAC output voltage

Digital inputs are converted to output voltages on a linear conversion between 0 and VREF+.
The analog output voltages on each DAC channel pin are determined by the following
equation:
DOR
DACoutput = V REF  --------------
4095

12.3.6 DAC trigger selection

If the TENx control bit is set, conversion can then be triggered by an external event (timer
counter, external interrupt line). The TSELx[2:0] control bits determine which out of 8 possi-
ble events will trigger conversion as shown in Table 69.

Each time a DAC interface detects a rising edge on the selected timer TRGO output, or on
the selected external interrupt line 9, the last data stored into the DAC_DHRx register is
transferred into the DAC_DORx register. The DAC_DORx register is updated three APB1
cycles after the trigger occurs.
If the software trigger is selected, the conversion starts once the SWTRIG bit is set.
SWTRIG is reset by hardware once the DAC_DORx register has been loaded with the
DAC_DHRx register contents.

Note: 1 TSELx[2:0] bit cannot be changed when the ENx bit is set.
2 When software trigger is selected, it takes only one APB1 clock cycle for DAC_DHRx-to-
DAC_DORx register transfer.

12.3.7 DMA request

Each DAC channel has a DMA capability. Two DMA channels are used to service DAC
channel DMA requests.
A DAC DMA request is generated when an external trigger (but not a software trigger)
occurs while the DMAENx bit is set. The value of the DAC_DHRx register is then transferred
to the DAC_DORx register.
In dual mode, if both DMAENx bits are set, two DMA requests are generated. If only one
DMA request is needed, you should set only the corresponding DMAENx bit. In this way, the
application can manage both DAC channels in dual mode by using one DMA request and a
unique DMA channel.
The DAC DMA request is not queued so that if a second external trigger arrives before the
acknowledgement of the last request, then the new request will not be serviced and no error
is reported

12.3.8 Noise generation

In order to generate a variable-amplitude pseudonoise, a Linear Feedback Shift Register is
available. The DAC noise generation is selected by setting WAVEx[1:0] to “01”. The
preloaded value in the LFSR is 0xAAA. This register is updated, three APB1 clock cycles
after each trigger event, following a specific calculation algorithm.

The LFSR value, that may be masked partially or totally by means of the MAMPx[3:0] bits in
the DAC_CR register, is added up to the DAC_DHRx contents without overflow and this
value is then stored into the DAC_DORx register.
If LFSR is 0x0000, a ‘1’ is injected into it (antilock-up mechanism).
It is possible to reset LFSR wave generation by resetting the WAVEx[1:0] bits.

Note: DAC trigger must be enabled for noise generation, by setting the TENx bit in the DAC_CR
register.

12.3.9 Triangle-wave generation

It is possible to add a small-amplitude triangular waveform on a DC or slowly varying signal.
DAC triangle-wave generation is selected by setting WAVEx[1:0] to “10”. The amplitude is
configured through the MAMPx[3:0] bits in the DAC_CR register. An internal triangle counter
is incremented three APB1 clock cycles after each trigger event. The value of this counter is
then added to the DAC_DHRx register without overflow and the sum is stored into the
DAC_DORx register. The triangle counter is incremented while it is less than the maximum
amplitude defined by the MAMPx[3:0] bits. Once the configured amplitude is reached, the
counter is decremented down to 0, then incremented again and so on.
It is possible to reset triangle wave generation by resetting WAVEx[1:0] bits.

12.4 Dual DAC channel conversion

To efficiently use the bus bandwidth in applications that require the two DAC channels at the
same time, three dual registers are implemented: DHR8RD, DHR12RD and DHR12LD. A
unique register access is then required to drive both DAC channels at the same time.
Eleven possible conversion modes are possible using the two DAC channels and these dual
registers. All the conversion modes can nevertheless be obtained using separate DHRx
registers if needed.
All modes are described in the paragraphs below.

12.4.1 Independent trigger without wave generation

To configure the DAC in this conversion mode, the following sequence is required:
● Set the two DAC channel trigger enable bits TEN1 and TEN2
● Configure different trigger sources by setting different values in the TSEL1[2:0] and
TSEL2[2:0] bits
● Load the dual DAC channel data into the desired DHR register (DAC_DHR12RD,
DAC_DHR12LD or DAC_DHR8RD)
When a DAC channel1 trigger arrives, the DHR1 register is transferred into DAC_DOR1
(three APB1 clock cycles later).
When a DAC channel2 trigger arrives, the DHR2 register is transferred into DAC_DOR2
(three APB1 clock cycles later).

13 Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
Low- and medium-density STM32F103xx devices, and the STM32F105xx/STM32F107xx
connectivity line devices, contain one advanced-control timer (TIM1) whereas high-density
STM32F103xx devices feature two advance-control timers (TIM1 and TIM8).

13.1 TIM1&TIM8 introduction

The advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8) consist of a 16-bit auto-reload counter driven by
a programmable prescaler.
It may be used for a variety of purposes, including measuring the pulse lengths of input
signals (input capture) or generating output waveforms (output compare, PWM,
complementary PWM with dead-time insertion).
Pulse lengths and waveform periods can be modulated from a few microseconds to several
milliseconds using the timer prescaler and the RCC clock controller prescalers.
The advanced-control (TIM1&TIM8) and general-purpose (TIMx) timers are completely
independent, and do not share any resources. They can be synchronized together as
described in Section 13.3.20.

13.2 TIM1&TIM8 main features

TIM1&TIM8 timer features include:
● 16-bit up, down, up/down auto-reload counter.
● 16-bit programmable prescaler allowing dividing (also “on the fly”) the counter clock
frequency either by any factor between 1 and 65535.
● Up to 4 independent channels for:
– Input Capture
– Output Compare
– PWM generation (Edge and Center-aligned Mode)
– One-pulse mode output
● Complementary outputs with programmable dead-time
● Synchronization circuit to control the timer with external signals and to interconnect
several timers together.
● Repetition counter to update the timer registers only after a given number of cycles of
the counter.
● Break input to put the timer’s output signals in reset state or in a known state.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 253/995

Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8) RM0008

● Interrupt/DMA generation on the following events:

– Update: counter overflow/underflow, counter initialization (by software or
internal/external trigger)
– Trigger event (counter start, stop, initialization or count by internal/external trigger)
– Input capture
– Output compare
– Break input
● Supports incremental (quadrature) encoder and hall-sensor cicuitry for positioning
purposes
● Trigger input for external clock or cycle-by-cycle current management

13.3 TIM1&TIM8 functional description

13.3.1 Time-base unit

The main block of the programmable advanced-control timer is a 16-bit counter with its
related auto-reload register. The counter can count up, down or both up and down. The
counter clock can be divided by a prescaler.
The counter, the auto-reload register and the prescaler register can be written or read by
software. This is true even when the counter is running.
The time-base unit includes:
● Counter register (TIMx_CNT)
● Prescaler register (TIMx_PSC)
● Auto-reload register (TIMx_ARR)
● Repetition counter register (TIMx_RCR)
The auto-reload register is preloaded. Writing to or reading from the auto-reload register
accesses the preload register. The content of the preload register are transferred into the
shadow register permanently or at each update event (UEV), depending on the auto-reload
preload enable bit (ARPE) in TIMx_CR1 register. The update event is sent when the counter
reaches the overflow (or underflow when downcounting) and if the UDIS bit equals 0 in the
TIMx_CR1 register. It can also be generated by software. The generation of the update
event is described in detailed for each configuration.
The counter is clocked by the prescaler output CK_CNT, which is enabled only when the
counter enable bit (CEN) in TIMx_CR1 register is set (refer also to the slave mode controller
description to get more details on counter enabling).
Note that the counter starts counting 1 clock cycle after setting the CEN bit in the TIMx_CR1
register.

Prescaler description
The prescaler can divide the counter clock frequency by any factor between 1 and 65536. It
is based on a 16-bit counter controlled through a 16-bit register (in the TIMx_PSC register).
It can be changed on the fly as this control register is buffered. The new prescaler ratio is
taken into account at the next update event.
Figure 53 and Figure 54 give some examples of the counter behavior when the prescaler
ratio is changed on the fly:

13.3.2 Counter modes

Upcounting mode
In upcounting mode, the counter counts from 0 to the auto-reload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register), then restarts from 0 and generates a counter overflow event.
If the repetition counter is used, the update event (UEV) is generated after upcounting is
repeated for the number of times programmed in the repetition counter register
(TIMx_RCR). Else the update event is generated at each counter overflow.
Setting the UG bit in the TIMx_EGR register (by software or by using the slave mode
controller) also generates an update event.
The UEV event can be disabled by software by setting the UDIS bit in the TIMx_CR1
register. This is to avoid updating the shadow registers while writing new values in the

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 257/995

Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8) RM0008

preload registers. Then no update event occurs until the UDIS bit has been written to 0.
However, the counter restarts from 0, as well as the counter of the prescaler (but the
prescale rate does not change). In addition, if the URS bit (update request selection) in
TIMx_CR1 register is set, setting the UG bit generates an update event UEV but without
setting the UIF flag (thus no interrupt or DMA request is sent). This is to avoid generating
both update and capture interrupts when clearing the counter on the capture event.
When an update event occurs, all the registers are updated and the update flag (UIF bit in
TIMx_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):
● The repetition counter is reloaded with the content of TIMx_RCR register,
● The auto-reload shadow register is updated with the preload value (TIMx_ARR),
● The buffer of the prescaler is reloaded with the preload value (content of the TIMx_PSC
register).
The following figures show some examples of the counter behavior for different clock
frequencies when TIMx_ARR=0x36.

Downcounting mode
In downcounting mode, the counter counts from the auto-reload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register) down to 0, then restarts from the auto-reload value and generates a
counter underflow event.
If the repetition counter is used, the update event (UEV) is generated after downcounting is
repeated for the number of times programmed in the repetition counter register
(TIMx_RCR). Else the update event is generated at each counter underflow.
Setting the UG bit in the TIMx_EGR register (by software or by using the slave mode
controller) also generates an update event.
The UEV update event can be disabled by software by setting the UDIS bit in TIMx_CR1
register. This is to avoid updating the shadow registers while writing new values in the
preload registers. Then no update event occurs until UDIS bit has been written to 0.
However, the counter restarts from the current auto-reload value, whereas the counter of the
prescaler restarts from 0 (but the prescale rate doesn’t change).
In addition, if the URS bit (update request selection) in TIMx_CR1 register is set, setting the
UG bit generates an update event UEV but without setting the UIF flag (thus no interrupt or
DMA request is sent). This is to avoid generating both update and capture interrupts when
clearing the counter on the capture event.
When an update event occurs, all the registers are updated and the update flag (UIF bit in
TIMx_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):
● The repetition counter is reloaded with the content of TIMx_RCR register
● The buffer of the prescaler is reloaded with the preload value (content of the TIMx_PSC
register)
● The auto-reload active register is updated with the preload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register). Note that the auto-reload is updated before the counter is
reloaded, so that the next period is the expected one

Center-aligned mode (up/down counting)

In center-aligned mode, the counter counts from 0 to the auto-reload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register) – 1, generates a counter overflow event, then counts from the auto-
reload value down to 1 and generates a counter underflow event. Then it restarts counting
from 0.
In this mode, the DIR direction bit in the TIMx_CR1 register cannot be written. It is updated
by hardware and gives the current direction of the counter.
The update event can be generated at each counter overflow and at each counter underflow
or by setting the UG bit in the TIMx_EGR register (by software or by using the slave mode
controller) also generates an update event. In this case, the counter restarts counting from
0, as well as the counter of the prescaler.
The UEV update event can be disabled by software by setting the UDIS bit in the TIMx_CR1
register. This is to avoid updating the shadow registers while writing new values in the
preload registers. Then no update event occurs until UDIS bit has been written to 0.
However, the counter continues counting up and down, based on the current auto-reload
value.

In addition, if the URS bit (update request selection) in TIMx_CR1 register is set, setting the
UG bit generates an UEV update event but without setting the UIF flag (thus no interrupt or
DMA request is sent). This is to avoid generating both update and capture interrupts when
clearing the counter on the capture event.
When an update event occurs, all the registers are updated and the update flag (UIF bit in
TIMx_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):
● The repetition counter is reloaded with the content of TIMx_RCR register
● The buffer of the prescaler is reloaded with the preload value (content of the TIMx_PSC
register)
● The auto-reload active register is updated with the preload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register). Note that if the update source is a counter overflow, the auto-
reload is updated before the counter is reloaded, so that the next period is the expected
one (the counter is loaded with the new value).
The following figures show some examples of the counter behavior for different clock
frequencies.

13.3.3 Repetition counter

Section 13.3.1: Time-base unit describes how the update event (UEV) is generated with
respect to the counter overflows/underflows. It is actually generated only when the repetition
counter has reached zero. This can be useful when generating PWM signals.
This means that data are transferred from the preload registers to the shadow registers
(TIMx_ARR auto-reload register, TIMx_PSC prescaler register, but also TIMx_CCRx
capture/compare registers in compare mode) every N counter overflows or underflows,
where N is the value in the TIMx_RCR repetition counter register.
The repetition counter is decremented:
● At each counter overflow in upcounting mode,
● At each counter underflow in downcounting mode,
● At each counter overflow and at each counter underflow in center-aligned mode.
Although this limits the maximum number of repetition to 128 PWM cycles, it makes it
possible to update the duty cycle twice per PWM period. When refreshing compare
registers only once per PWM period in center-aligned mode, maximum resolution is
2xTck, due to the symmetry of the pattern.
The repetition counter is an auto-reload type; the repetition rate is maintained as defined by
the TIMx_RCR register value (refer to Figure 71). When the update event is generated by
software (by setting the UG bit in TIMx_EGR register) or by hardware through the slave
mode controller, it occurs immediately whatever the value of the repetition counter is and the
repetition counter is reloaded with the content of the TIMx_RCR register.

13.3.4 Clock selection

The counter clock can be provided by the following clock sources:
● Internal clock (CK_INT)
● External clock mode1: external input pin
● External clock mode2: external trigger input ETR
● Internal trigger inputs (ITRx): using one timer as prescaler for another timer, for
example, you can configure Timer 1 to act as a prescaler for Timer 2. Refer to Section :
Using one timer as prescaler for another timer on page 353 for more details.

Internal clock source (CK_INT)

If the slave mode controller is disabled (SMS=000), then the CEN, DIR (in the TIMx_CR1
register) and UG bits (in the TIMx_EGR register) are actual control bits and can be changed
only by software (except UG which remains cleared automatically). As soon as the CEN bit
is written to 1, the prescaler is clocked by the internal clock CK_INT.
Figure 72 shows the behavior of the control circuit and the upcounter in normal mode,
without prescaler.

For example, to configure the upcounter to count in response to a rising edge on the TI2
input, use the following procedure:
1. Configure channel 2 to detect rising edges on the TI2 input by writing CC2S = ‘01’ in
the TIMx_CCMR1 register.
2. Configure the input filter duration by writing the IC2F[3:0] bits in the TIMx_CCMR1
register (if no filter is needed, keep IC2F=0000).
3. Select rising edge polarity by writing CC2P=0 in the TIMx_CCER register.
4. Configure the timer in external clock mode 1 by writing SMS=111 in the TIMx_SMCR
register.
5. Select TI2 as the trigger input source by writing TS=110 in the TIMx_SMCR register.
6. Enable the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register.
Note: The capture prescaler is not used for triggering, so you don’t need to configure it.
When a rising edge occurs on TI2, the counter counts once and the TIF flag is set.
The delay between the rising edge on TI2 and the actual clock of the counter is due to the
resynchronization circuit on TI2 input.

For example, to configure the upcounter to count each 2 rising edges on ETR, use the
following procedure:
1. As no filter is needed in this example, write ETF[3:0]=0000 in the TIMx_SMCR register.
2. Set the prescaler by writing ETPS[1:0]=01 in the TIMx_SMCR register
3. Select rising edge detection on the ETR pin by writing ETP=0 in the TIMx_SMCR

4. Enable external clock mode 2 by writing ECE=1 in the TIMx_SMCR register.
5. Enable the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register.
The counter counts once each 2 ETR rising edges.

13.3.5 Capture/compare channels

Each Capture/Compare channel is built around a capture/compare register (including a
shadow register), a input stage for capture (with digital filter, multiplexing and prescaler) and
an output stage (with comparator and output control).
Figure 77 to Figure 80 give an overview of one Capture/Compare channel.
The input stage samples the corresponding TIx input to generate a filtered signal TIxF.
Then, an edge detector with polarity selection generates a signal (TIxFPx) which can be
used as trigger input by the slave mode controller or as the capture command. It is
prescaled before the capture register (ICxPS).

The capture/compare block is made of one preload register and one shadow register. Write
and read always access the preload register.
In capture mode, captures are actually done in the shadow register, which is copied into the
preload register.
In compare mode, the content of the preload register is copied into the shadow register
which is compared to the counter.

13.3.6 Input capture mode

In Input capture mode, the Capture/Compare Registers (TIMx_CCRx) are used to latch the
value of the counter after a transition detected by the corresponding ICx signal. When a
capture occurs, the corresponding CCXIF flag (TIMx_SR register) is set and an interrupt or
a DMA request can be sent if they are enabled. If a capture occurs while the CCxIF flag was
already high, then the over-capture flag CCxOF (TIMx_SR register) is set. CCxIF can be
cleared by software by writing it to ‘0’ or by reading the captured data stored in the
TIMx_CCRx register. CCxOF is cleared when you write it to ‘0’.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 271/995

Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8) RM0008

The following example shows how to capture the counter value in TIMx_CCR1 when TI1
input rises. To do this, use the following procedure:
● Select the active input: TIMx_CCR1 must be linked to the TI1 input, so write the CC1S
bits to 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register. As soon as CC1S becomes different from 00,
the channel is configured in input and the TIMx_CCR1 register becomes read-only.
● Program the input filter duration you need with respect to the signal you connect to the
timer (when the input is one of the TIx (ICxF bits in the TIMx_CCMRx register). Let’s
imagine that, when toggling, the input signal is not stable during at must 5 internal clock
cycles. We must program a filter duration longer than these 5 clock cycles. We can
validate a transition on TI1 when 8 consecutive samples with the new level have been
detected (sampled at fDTS frequency). Then write IC1F bits to 0011 in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register.
● Select the edge of the active transition on the TI1 channel by writing CC1P bit to 0 in
the TIMx_CCER register (rising edge in this case).
● Program the input prescaler. In our example, we wish the capture to be performed at
each valid transition, so the prescaler is disabled (write IC1PS bits to ‘00’ in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register).
● Enable capture from the counter into the capture register by setting the CC1E bit in the
TIMx_CCER register.
● If needed, enable the related interrupt request by setting the CC1IE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register, and/or the DMA request by setting the CC1DE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register.
When an input capture occurs:
● The TIMx_CCR1 register gets the value of the counter on the active transition.
● CC1IF flag is set (interrupt flag). CC1OF is also set if at least two consecutive captures
occurred whereas the flag was not cleared.
● An interrupt is generated depending on the CC1IE bit.
● A DMA request is generated depending on the CC1DE bit.
In order to handle the overcapture, it is recommended to read the data before the
overcapture flag. This is to avoid missing an overcapture which could happen after reading
the flag and before reading the data.
Note: IC interrupt and/or DMA requests can be generated by software by setting the
corresponding CCxG bit in the TIMx_EGR register.

13.3.7 PWM input mode

This mode is a particular case of input capture mode. The procedure is the same except:
● Two ICx signals are mapped on the same TIx input.
● These 2 ICx signals are active on edges with opposite polarity.
● One of the two TIxFP signals is selected as trigger input and the slave mode controller
is configured in reset mode.

272/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8)

For example, you can measure the period (in TIMx_CCR1 register) and the duty cycle (in
TIMx_CCR2 register) of the PWM applied on TI1 using the following procedure (depending
on CK_INT frequency and prescaler value):
● Select the active input for TIMx_CCR1: write the CC1S bits to 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1
register (TI1 selected).
● Select the active polarity for TI1FP1 (used both for capture in TIMx_CCR1 and counter
clear): write the CC1P bit to ‘0’ (active on rising edge).
● Select the active input for TIMx_CCR2: write the CC2S bits to 10 in the TIMx_CCMR1
register (TI1 selected).
● Select the active polarity for TI1FP2 (used for capture in TIMx_CCR2): write the CC2P
bit to ‘1’ (active on falling edge).
● Select the valid trigger input: write the TS bits to 101 in the TIMx_SMCR register
(TI1FP1 selected).
● Configure the slave mode controller in reset mode: write the SMS bits to 100 in the
TIMx_SMCR register.
● Enable the captures: write the CC1E and CC2E bits to ‘1’ in the TIMx_CCER register.

1. The PWM input mode can be used only with the TIMx_CH1/TIMx_CH2 signals due to the fact that only
TI1FP1 and TI2FP2 are connected to the slave mode controller.

13.3.8 Forced output mode

In output mode (CCxS bits = 00 in the TIMx_CCMRx register), each output compare signal
(OCxREF and then OCx/OCxN) can be forced to active or inactive level directly by software,
independently of any comparison between the output compare register and the counter.
To force an output compare signal (OCXREF/OCx) to its active level, you just need to write
101 in the OCxM bits in the corresponding TIMx_CCMRx register. Thus OCXREF is forced
high (OCxREF is always active high) and OCx get opposite value to CCxP polarity bit.
For example: CCxP=0 (OCx active high) => OCx is forced to high level.
The OCxREF signal can be forced low by writing the OCxM bits to 100 in the TIMx_CCMRx
register.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 273/995

Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8) RM0008

Anyway, the comparison between the TIMx_CCRx shadow register and the counter is still
performed and allows the flag to be set. Interrupt and DMA requests can be sent
accordingly. This is described in the output compare mode section below.

13.3.9 Output compare mode

This function is used to control an output waveform or indicating when a period of time has
elapsed.
When a match is found between the capture/compare register and the counter, the output
compare function:
● Assigns the corresponding output pin to a programmable value defined by the output
compare mode (OCxM bits in the TIMx_CCMRx register) and the output polarity (CCxP
bit in the TIMx_CCER register). The output pin can keep its level (OCXM=000), be set
active (OCxM=001), be set inactive (OCxM=010) or can toggle (OCxM=011) on match.
● Sets a flag in the interrupt status register (CCxIF bit in the TIMx_SR register).
● Generates an interrupt if the corresponding interrupt mask is set (CCXIE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register).
● Sends a DMA request if the corresponding enable bit is set (CCxDE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register, CCDS bit in the TIMx_CR2 register for the DMA request
selection).
The TIMx_CCRx registers can be programmed with or without preload registers using the
OCxPE bit in the TIMx_CCMRx register.
In output compare mode, the update event UEV has no effect on OCxREF and OCx output.
The timing resolution is one count of the counter. Output compare mode can also be used to
output a single pulse (in One Pulse mode).
Procedure:
1. Select the counter clock (internal, external, prescaler).
2. Write the desired data in the TIMx_ARR and TIMx_CCRx registers.
3. Set the CCxIE bit if an interrupt request is to be generated.
4. Select the output mode. For example:
– Write OCxM = 011 to toggle OCx output pin when CNT matches CCRx
– Write OCxPE = 0 to disable preload register
– Write CCxP = 0 to select active high polarity
– Write CCxE = 1 to enable the output
5. Enable the counter by setting the CEN bit in the TIMx_CR1 register.
The TIMx_CCRx register can be updated at any time by software to control the output
waveform, provided that the preload register is not enabled (OCxPE=’0’, else TIMx_CCRx
shadow register is updated only at the next update event UEV). An example is given in
Figure 82.

13.3.10 PWM mode

Pulse Width Modulation mode allows you to generate a signal with a frequency determined
by the value of the TIMx_ARR register and a duty cycle determined by the value of the
TIMx_CCRx register.
The PWM mode can be selected independently on each channel (one PWM per OCx
output) by writing ‘110’ (PWM mode 1) or ‘111’ (PWM mode 2) in the OCxM bits in the
TIMx_CCMRx register. You must enable the corresponding preload register by setting the
OCxPE bit in the TIMx_CCMRx register, and eventually the auto-reload preload register (in
upcounting or center-aligned modes) by setting the ARPE bit in the TIMx_CR1 register.
As the preload registers are transferred to the shadow registers only when an update event
occurs, before starting the counter, you have to initialize all the registers by setting the UG
bit in the TIMx_EGR register.
OCx polarity is software programmable using the CCxP bit in the TIMx_CCER register. It
can be programmed as active high or active low. OCx output is enabled by a combination of
the CCxE, CCxNE, MOE, OSSI and OSSR bits (TIMx_CCER and TIMx_BDTR registers).
Refer to the TIMx_CCER register description for more details.
In PWM mode (1 or 2), TIMx_CNT and TIMx_CCRx are always compared to determine
whether TIMx_CCRx  TIMx_CNT or TIMx_CNT  TIMx_CCRx (depending on the direction
of the counter).
The timer is able to generate PWM in edge-aligned mode or center-aligned mode
depending on the CMS bits in the TIMx_CR1 register.

PWM edge-aligned mode

● Upcounting configuration
Upcounting is active when the DIR bit in the TIMx_CR1 register is low. Refer to the
Upcounting mode on page 257.
In the following example, we consider PWM mode 1. The reference PWM signal
OCxREF is high as long as TIMx_CNT < TIMx_CCRx else it becomes low. If the
compare value in TIMx_CCRx is greater than the auto-reload value (in TIMx_ARR)
then OCxREF is held at ‘1’. If the compare value is 0 then OCxRef is held at ‘0’.
Figure 83 shows some edge-aligned PWM waveforms in an example where
TIMx_ARR=8.

● Downcounting configuration
Downcounting is active when DIR bit in TIMx_CR1 register is high. Refer to the
Downcounting mode on page 260
In PWM mode 1, the reference signal OCxRef is low as long as
TIMx_CNT > TIMx_CCRx else it becomes high. If the compare value in TIMx_CCRx is
greater than the auto-reload value in TIMx_ARR, then OCxREF is held at ‘1’. 0% PWM
is not possible in this mode.

PWM center-aligned mode

Center-aligned mode is active when the CMS bits in TIMx_CR1 register are different from
‘00’ (all the remaining configurations having the same effect on the OCxRef/OCx signals).
The compare flag is set when the counter counts up, when it counts down or both when it
counts up and down depending on the CMS bits configuration. The direction bit (DIR) in the
TIMx_CR1 register is updated by hardware and must not be changed by software. Refer to
the Center-aligned mode (up/down counting) on page 262.
Figure 84 shows some center-aligned PWM waveforms in an example where:
● TIMx_ARR=8,
● PWM mode is the PWM mode 1,
● The flag is set when the counter counts down corresponding to the center-aligned
mode 1 selected for CMS=01 in TIMx_CR1 register.

means that the counter counts up or down depending on the value written in the DIR bit
in the TIMx_CR1 register. Moreover, the DIR and CMS bits must not be changed at the
same time by the software.
● Writing to the counter while running in center-aligned mode is not recommended as it
can lead to unexpected results. In particular:
– The direction is not updated if you write a value in the counter that is greater than
the auto-reload value (TIMx_CNT>TIMx_ARR). For example, if the counter was
counting up, it continues to count up.
– The direction is updated if you write 0 or write the TIMx_ARR value in the counter
but no Update Event UEV is generated.
● The safest way to use center-aligned mode is to generate an update by software
(setting the UG bit in the TIMx_EGR register) just before starting the counter and not to
write the counter while it is running.

13.3.11 Complementary outputs and dead-time insertion

The advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8) can output two complementary signals and
manage the switching-off and the switching-on instants of the outputs.
This time is generally known as dead-time and you have to adjust it depending on the
devices you have connected to the outputs and their characteristics (intrinsic delays of level-
shifters, delays due to power switches...)
You can select the polarity of the outputs (main output OCx or complementary OCxN)
independently for each output. This is done by writing to the CCxP and CCxNP bits in the
TIMx_CCER register.
The complementary signals OCx and OCxN are activated by a combination of several
control bits: the CCxE and CCxNE bits in the TIMx_CCER register and the MOE, OISx,
OISxN, OSSI and OSSR bits in the TIMx_BDTR and TIMx_CR2 registers. Refer to Table 73:
Output control bits for complementary OCx and OCxN channels with break feature on
page 310 for more details. In particular, the dead-time is activated when switching to the
IDLE state (MOE falling down to 0).
Dead-time insertion is enabled by setting both CCxE and CCxNE bits, and the MOE bit if the
break circuit is present. There is one 10-bit dead-time generator for each channel. From a
reference waveform OCxREF, it generates 2 outputs OCx and OCxN. If OCx and OCxN are
active high:
● The OCx output signal is the same as the reference signal except for the rising edge,
which is delayed relative to the reference rising edge.
● The OCxN output signal is the opposite of the reference signal except for the rising
edge, which is delayed relative to the reference falling edge.
If the delay is greater than the width of the active output (OCx or OCxN) then the
corresponding pulse is not generated.
The following figures show the relationships between the output signals of the dead-time
generator and the reference signal OCxREF. (we suppose CCxP=0, CCxNP=0, MOE=1,
CCxE=1 and CCxNE=1 in these examples)

delay

The dead-time delay is the same for each of the channels and is programmable with the
DTG bits in the TIMx_BDTR register. Refer to Section 13.4.18: TIM1&TIM8 break and dead-
time register (TIMx_BDTR) on page 314 for delay calculation.

Re-directing OCxREF to OCx or OCxN

In output mode (forced, output compare or PWM), OCxREF can be re-directed to the OCx
output or to OCxN output by configuring the CCxE and CCxNE bits in the TIMx_CCER
register.
This allows you to send a specific waveform (such as PWM or static active level) on one
output while the complementary remains at its inactive level. Other alternative possibilities
are to have both outputs at inactive level or both outputs active and complementary with
dead-time.
Note: When only OCxN is enabled (CCxE=0, CCxNE=1), it is not complemented and becomes
active as soon as OCxREF is high. For example, if CCxNP=0 then OCxN=OCxRef. On the
other hand, when both OCx and OCxN are enabled (CCxE=CCxNE=1) OCx becomes
active when OCxREF is high whereas OCxN is complemented and becomes active when
OCxREF is low.

13.3.12 Using the break function

When using the break function, the output enable signals and inactive levels are modified
according to additional control bits (MOE, OSSI and OSSR bits in the TIMx_BDTR register,
OISx and OISxN bits in the TIMx_CR2 register). In any case, the OCx and OCxN outputs
cannot be set both to active level at a given time. Refer to Table 73: Output control bits for
complementary OCx and OCxN channels with break feature on page 310 for more details.
The break source can be either the break input pin or a clock failure event, generated by the
Clock Security System (CSS), from the Reset Clock Controller. For further information on
the Clock Security System, refer to Section 6.2.7: Clock security system (CSS) on page 81.
When exiting from reset, the break circuit is disabled and the MOE bit is low. You can enable
the break function by setting the BKE bit in the TIMx_BDTR register. The break input
polarity can be selected by configuring the BKP bit in the same register. BKE and BKP can
be modified at the same time. When the BKE and BKP bits are written, a delay of 1 APB
clock cycle is applied before the writing is effective. Consequently, it is necessary to wait 1
APB clock period to correctly read back the bit after the write operation.
Because MOE falling edge can be asynchronous, a resynchronization circuit has been
inserted between the actual signal (acting on the outputs) and the synchronous control bit
(accessed in the TIMx_BDTR register). It results in some delays between the asynchronous
and the synchronous signals. In particular, if you write MOE to 1 whereas it was low, you

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 279/995

Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8) RM0008

must insert a delay (dummy instruction) before reading it correctly. This is because you write
the asynchronous signal and read the synchronous signal.
When a break occurs (selected level on the break input):
● The MOE bit is cleared asynchronously, putting the outputs in inactive state, idle state
or in reset state (selected by the OSSI bit). This feature functions even if the MCU
oscillator is off.
● Each output channel is driven with the level programmed in the OISx bit in the
TIMx_CR2 register as soon as MOE=0. If OSSI=0 then the timer releases the enable
output else the enable output remains high.
● When complementary outputs are used:
– The outputs are first put in reset state inactive state (depending on the polarity).
This is done asynchronously so that it works even if no clock is provided to the
timer.
– If the timer clock is still present, then the dead-time generator is reactivated in
order to drive the outputs with the level programmed in the OISx and OISxN bits
after a dead-time. Even in this case, OCx and OCxN cannot be driven to their
active level together. Note that because of the resynchronization on MOE, the
dead-time duration is a bit longer than usual (around 2 ck_tim clock cycles).
– If OSSI=0 then the timer releases the enable outputs else the enable outputs
remain or become high as soon as one of the CCxE or CCxNE bits is high.
● The break status flag (BIF bit in the TIMx_SR register) is set. An interrupt can be
generated if the BIE bit in the TIMx_DIER register is set. A DMA request can be sent if
the BDE bit in the TIMx_DIER register is set.
● If the AOE bit in the TIMx_BDTR register is set, the MOE bit is automatically set again
at the next update event UEV. This can be used to perform a regulation, for instance.
Else, MOE remains low until you write it to ‘1’ again. In this case, it can be used for
security and you can connect the break input to an alarm from power drivers, thermal
sensors or any security components.
Note: The break inputs is acting on level. Thus, the MOE cannot be set while the break input is
active (neither automatically nor by software). In the meantime, the status flag BIF cannot be
cleared.
The break can be generated by the BRK input which has a programmable polarity and an
enable bit BKE in the TIMx_BDTR Register.
In addition to the break input and the output management, a write protection has been
implemented inside the break circuit to safeguard the application. It allows you to freeze the
configuration of several parameters (dead-time duration, OCx/OCxN polarities and state
when disabled, OCxM configurations, break enable and polarity). You can choose from 3
levels of protection selected by the LOCK bits in the TIMx_BDTR register. Refer to
Section 13.4.18: TIM1&TIM8 break and dead-time register (TIMx_BDTR) on page 314. The
LOCK bits can be written only once after an MCU reset.
The Figure 88 shows an example of behavior of the outputs in response to a break.

13.3.13 Clearing the OCxREF signal on an external event

The OCxREF signal for a given channel can be driven Low by applying a High level to the
ETRF input (OCxCE enable bit of the corresponding TIMx_CCMRx register set to ‘1’). The
OCxREF signal remains Low until the next update event, UEV, occurs.
This function can only be used in output compare and PWM modes, and does not work in
forced mode.
For example, the OCxREF signal) can be connected to the output of a comparator to be
used for current handling. In this case, the ETR must be configured as follow:
1. The External Trigger Prescaler should be kept off: bits ETPS[1:0] of the TIMx_SMCR
register set to ‘00’.
2. The external clock mode 2 must be disabled: bit ECE of the TIMx_SMCR register set to
‘0’.
3. The External Trigger Polarity (ETP) and the External Trigger Filter (ETF) can be
configured according to the user needs.
Figure 89 shows the behavior of the OCxREF signal when the ETRF Input becomes High,
for both values of the enable bit OCxCE. In this example, the timer TIMx is programmed in
PWM mode.

13.3.14 6-step PWM generation

When complementary outputs are used on a channel, preload bits are available on the
OCxM, CCxE and CCxNE bits. The preload bits are transferred to the shadow bits at the
COM commutation event. Thus you can program in advance the configuration for the next
step and change the configuration of all the channels at the same time. COM can be
generated by software by setting the COM bit in the TIMx_EGR register or by hardware (on
TRGI rising edge).
A flag is set when the COM event occurs (COMIF bit in the TIMx_SR register), which can
generate an interrupt (if the COMIE bit is set in the TIMx_DIER register) or a DMA request
(if the COMDE bit is set in the TIMx_DIER register).
The Figure 90 describes the behavior of the OCx and OCxN outputs when a COM event
occurs, in 3 different examples of programmed configurations.

13.3.15 One-pulse mode

One-pulse mode (OPM) is a particular case of the previous modes. It allows the counter to
be started in response to a stimulus and to generate a pulse with a programmable length
after a programmable delay.
Starting the counter can be controlled through the slave mode controller. Generating the
waveform can be done in output compare mode or PWM mode. You select One-pulse mode
by setting the OPM bit in the TIMx_CR1 register. This makes the counter stop automatically
at the next update event UEV.
A pulse can be correctly generated only if the compare value is different from the counter
initial value. Before starting (when the timer is waiting for the trigger), the configuration must
be:
● In upcounting: CNT < CCRx  ARR (in particular, 0 < CCRx)
● In downcounting: CNT > CCRx

For example you may want to generate a positive pulse on OC1 with a length of tPULSE and
after a delay of tDELAY as soon as a positive edge is detected on the TI2 input pin.
Let’s use TI2FP2 as trigger 1:
● Map TI2FP2 to TI2 by writing CC2S=’01’ in the TIMx_CCMR1 register.
● TI2FP2 must detect a rising edge, write CC2P=’0’ in the TIMx_CCER register.
● Configure TI2FP2 as trigger for the slave mode controller (TRGI) by writing TS=’110’ in
the TIMx_SMCR register.
● TI2FP2 is used to start the counter by writing SMS to ‘110’ in the TIMx_SMCR register
(trigger mode).

284/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8)

The OPM waveform is defined by writing the compare registers (taking into account the
clock frequency and the counter prescaler).
● The tDELAY is defined by the value written in the TIMx_CCR1 register.
● The tPULSE is defined by the difference between the auto-reload value and the compare
value (TIMx_ARR - TIMx_CCR1).
● Let’s say you want to build a waveform with a transition from ‘0’ to ‘1’ when a compare
match occurs and a transition from ‘1’ to ‘0’ when the counter reaches the auto-reload
value. To do this you enable PWM mode 2 by writing OC1M=111 in the TIMx_CCMR1
register. You can optionally enable the preload registers by writing OC1PE=’1’ in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register and ARPE in the TIMx_CR1 register. In this case you have to
write the compare value in the TIMx_CCR1 register, the auto-reload value in the
TIMx_ARR register, generate an update by setting the UG bit and wait for external
trigger event on TI2. CC1P is written to ‘0’ in this example.
In our example, the DIR and CMS bits in the TIMx_CR1 register should be low.
You only want 1 pulse, so you write ‘1’ in the OPM bit in the TIMx_CR1 register to stop the
counter at the next update event (when the counter rolls over from the auto-reload value
back to 0).
Particular case: OCx fast enable:
In One-pulse mode, the edge detection on TIx input set the CEN bit which enables the
counter. Then the comparison between the counter and the compare value makes the
output toggle. But several clock cycles are needed for these operations and it limits the
minimum delay tDELAY min we can get.
If you want to output a waveform with the minimum delay, you can set the OCxFE bit in the
TIMx_CCMRx register. Then OCxRef (and OCx) are forced in response to the stimulus,
without taking in account the comparison. Its new level is the same as if a compare match
had occurred. OCxFE acts only if the channel is configured in PWM1 or PWM2 mode.

13.3.16 Encoder interface mode

To select Encoder Interface mode write SMS=‘001’ in the TIMx_SMCR register if the
counter is counting on TI2 edges only, SMS=’010’ if it is counting on TI1 edges only and
SMS=’011’ if it is counting on both TI1 and TI2 edges.
Select the TI1 and TI2 polarity by programming the CC1P and CC2P bits in the TIMx_CCER
register. When needed, you can program the input filter as well.
The two inputs TI1 and TI2 are used to interface to an incremental encoder. Refer to
Table 71. The counter is clocked by each valid transition on TI1FP1 or TI2FP2 (TI1 and TI2
after input filter and polarity selection, TI1FP1=TI1 if not filtered and not inverted,
TI2FP2=TI2 if not filtered and not inverted) assuming that it is enabled (CEN bit in
TIMx_CR1 register written to ‘1’). The sequence of transitions of the two inputs is evaluated
and generates count pulses as well as the direction signal. Depending on the sequence the
counter counts up or down, the DIR bit in the TIMx_CR1 register is modified by hardware
accordingly. The DIR bit is calculated at each transition on any input (TI1 or TI2), whatever
the counter is counting on TI1 only, TI2 only or both TI1 and TI2.
Encoder interface mode acts simply as an external clock with direction selection. This
means that the counter just counts continuously between 0 and the auto-reload value in the
TIMx_ARR register (0 to ARR or ARR down to 0 depending on the direction). So you must
configure TIMx_ARR before starting. in the same way, the capture, compare, prescaler,

Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8) RM0008

repetition counter, trigger output features continue to work as normal. Encoder mode and
External clock mode 2 are not compatible and must not be selected together.
In this mode, the counter is modified automatically following the speed and the direction of
the incremental encoder and its content, therefore, always represents the encoder’s
position. The count direction correspond to the rotation direction of the connected sensor.
The table summarizes the possible combinations, assuming TI1 and TI2 don’t switch at the
same time.

An external incremental encoder can be connected directly to the MCU without external
interface logic. However, comparators are normally be used to convert the encoder’s
differential outputs to digital signals. This greatly increases noise immunity. The third
encoder output which indicate the mechanical zero position, may be connected to an
external interrupt input and trigger a counter reset.
The Figure 92 gives an example of counter operation, showing count signal generation and
direction control. It also shows how input jitter is compensated where both edges are
selected. This might occur if the sensor is positioned near to one of the switching points. For
this example we assume that the configuration is the following:
● CC1S=’01’ (TIMx_CCMR1 register, TI1FP1 mapped on TI1).
● CC2S=’01’ (TIMx_CCMR2 register, TI1FP2 mapped on TI2).
● CC1P=’0’ (TIMx_CCER register, TI1FP1 non-inverted, TI1FP1=TI1).
● CC2P=’0’ (TIMx_CCER register, TI1FP2 non-inverted, TI1FP2= TI2).
● SMS=’011’ (TIMx_SMCR register, both inputs are active on both rising and falling
edges).
● CEN=’1’ (TIMx_CR1 register, Counter enabled).

The timer, when configured in Encoder Interface mode provides information on the sensor’s
current position. You can obtain dynamic information (speed, acceleration, deceleration) by
measuring the period between two encoder events using a second timer configured in
capture mode. The output of the encoder which indicates the mechanical zero can be used
for this purpose. Depending on the time between two events, the counter can also be read
at regular times. You can do this by latching the counter value into a third input capture
register if available (then the capture signal must be periodic and can be generated by
another timer). when available, it is also possible to read its value through a DMA request
generated by a real-time clock.

13.3.17 Timer input XOR function

The TI1S bit in the TIMx_CR2 register, allows the input filter of channel 1 to be connected to
the output of a XOR gate, combining the three input pins TIMx_CH1, TIMx_CH2 and
TIMx_CH3.
The XOR output can be used with all the timer input functions such as trigger or input
capture. An example of this feature used to interface Hall sensors is given in Section 13.3.18
below.

13.3.18 Interfacing with Hall sensors

This is done using the advanced-control timers (TIM1 or TIM8) to generate PWM signals to
drive the motor and another timer TIMx (TIM2, TIM3, TIM4 or TIM5) referred to as
“interfacing timer” in Figure 94. The “interfacing timer” captures the 3 timer input pins (CC1,
CC2, CC3) connected through a XOR to the TI1 input channel (selected by setting the TI1S
bit in the TIMx_CR2 register).
The slave mode controller is configured in reset mode; the slave input is TI1F_ED. Thus,
each time one of the 3 inputs toggles, the counter restarts counting from 0. This creates a
time base triggered by any change on the Hall inputs.
On the “interfacing timer”, capture/compare channel 1 is configured in capture mode,
capture signal is TRC (See Figure 77: Capture/compare channel (example: channel 1 input
stage) on page 270). The captured value, which corresponds to the time elapsed between 2
changes on the inputs, gives information about motor speed.
The “interfacing timer” can be used in output mode to generate a pulse which changes the
configuration of the channels of the advanced-control timer (TIM1 or TIM8) (by triggering a
COM event). The TIM1 timer is used to generate PWM signals to drive the motor. To do this,
the interfacing timer channel must be programmed so that a positive pulse is generated after
a programmed delay (in output compare or PWM mode). This pulse is sent to the advanced-
control timer (TIM1 or TIM8) through the TRGO output.
Example: you want to change the PWM configuration of your advanced-control timer TIM1
after a programmed delay each time a change occurs on the Hall inputs connected to one of
the TIMx timers.
● Configure 3 timer inputs ORed to the TI1 input channel by writing the TI1S bit in the
TIMx_CR2 register to ‘1’,
● Program the time base: write the TIMx_ARR to the max value (the counter must be
cleared by the TI1 change. Set the prescaler to get a maximum counter period longer
than the time between 2 changes on the sensors,
● Program the channel 1 in capture mode (TRC selected): write the CC1S bits in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register to ‘01’. You can also program the digital filter if needed,
● Program the channel 2 in PWM 2 mode with the desired delay: write the OC2M bits to
‘111’ and the CC2S bits to ‘00’ in the TIMx_CCMR1 register,
● Select OC2REF as trigger output on TRGO: write the MMS bits in the TIMx_CR2
register to ‘101’,
In the advanced-control timer TIM1, the right ITR input must be selected as trigger input, the
timer is programmed to generate PWM signals, the capture/compare control signals are
preloaded (CCPC=1 in the TIMx_CR2 register) and the COM event is controlled by the
trigger input (CCUS=1 in the TIMx_CR2 register). The PWM control bits (CCxE, OCxM) are

written after a COM event for the next step (this can be done in an interrupt subroutine
generated by the rising edge of OC2REF).

13.3.19 TIMx and external trigger synchronization

The TIMx timer can be synchronized with an external trigger in several modes: Reset mode,
Gated mode and Trigger mode.

Slave mode: Reset mode

The counter and its prescaler can be reinitialized in response to an event on a trigger input.
Moreover, if the URS bit from the TIMx_CR1 register is low, an update event UEV is
generated. Then all the preloaded registers (TIMx_ARR, TIMx_CCRx) are updated.
In the following example, the upcounter is cleared in response to a rising edge on TI1 input:
● Configure the channel 1 to detect rising edges on TI1. Configure the input filter duration
(in this example, we don’t need any filter, so we keep IC1F=0000). The capture
prescaler is not used for triggering, so you don’t need to configure it. The CC1S bits
select the input capture source only, CC1S = 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register. Write
CC1P=0 in TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect rising edges only).
● Configure the timer in reset mode by writing SMS=100 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select
TI1 as the input source by writing TS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register.
● Start the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register.
The counter starts counting on the internal clock, then behaves normally until TI1 rising
edge. When TI1 rises, the counter is cleared and restarts from 0. In the meantime, the
trigger flag is set (TIF bit in the TIMx_SR register) and an interrupt request, or a DMA
request can be sent if enabled (depending on the TIE and TDE bits in TIMx_DIER register).
The following figure shows this behavior when the auto-reload register TIMx_ARR=0x36.
The delay between the rising edge on TI1 and the actual reset of the counter is due to the
resynchronization circuit on TI1 input.

In the following example, the upcounter counts only when TI1 input is low:
● Configure the channel 1 to detect low levels on TI1. Configure the input filter duration
(in this example, we don’t need any filter, so we keep IC1F=0000). The capture
prescaler is not used for triggering, so you don’t need to configure it. The CC1S bits
select the input capture source only, CC1S=01 in TIMx_CCMR1 register. Write
CC1P=1 in TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect low level only).
● Configure the timer in gated mode by writing SMS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select
TI1 as the input source by writing TS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register.
● Enable the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register (in gated mode, the
counter doesn’t start if CEN=0, whatever is the trigger input level).
The counter starts counting on the internal clock as long as TI1 is low and stops as soon as
TI1 becomes high. The TIF flag in the TIMx_SR register is set both when the counter starts
or stops.
The delay between the rising edge on TI1 and the actual stop of the counter is due to the
resynchronization circuit on TI1 input.

Slave mode: Trigger mode

The counter can start in response to an event on a selected input.
In the following example, the upcounter starts in response to a rising edge on TI2 input:
● Configure the channel 2 to detect rising edges on TI2. Configure the input filter duration
(in this example, we don’t need any filter, so we keep IC2F=0000). The capture
prescaler is not used for triggering, so you don’t need to configure it. The CC2S bits are
configured to select the input capture source only, CC2S=01 in TIMx_CCMR1 register.
Write CC2P=1 in TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect low level
only).
● Configure the timer in trigger mode by writing SMS=110 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select
TI2 as the input source by writing TS=110 in TIMx_SMCR register.
When a rising edge occurs on TI2, the counter starts counting on the internal clock and the
TIF flag is set.
The delay between the rising edge on TI2 and the actual start of the counter is due to the
resynchronization circuit on TI2 input.

Slave mode: external clock mode 2 + trigger mode

The external clock mode 2 can be used in addition to another slave mode (except external
clock mode 1 and encoder mode). In this case, the ETR signal is used as external clock
input, and another input can be selected as trigger input (in reset mode, gated mode or
trigger mode). It is recommended not to select ETR as TRGI through the TS bits of
TIMx_SMCR register.
In the following example, the upcounter is incremented at each rising edge of the ETR signal
as soon as a rising edge of TI1 occurs:
1. Configure the external trigger input circuit by programming the TIMx_SMCR register as
follows:
– ETF = 0000: no filter
– ETPS=00: prescaler disabled
– ETP=0: detection of rising edges on ETR and ECE=1 to enable the external clock
mode 2.

292/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8)

2. Configure the channel 1 as follows, to detect rising edges on TI:

– IC1F=0000: no filter.
– The capture prescaler is not used for triggering and does not need to be
configured.
– CC1S=01in TIMx_CCMR1 register to select only the input capture source
– CC1P=0 in TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect rising edge
only).
3. Configure the timer in trigger mode by writing SMS=110 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select
TI1 as the input source by writing TS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register.
A rising edge on TI1 enables the counter and sets the TIF flag. The counter then counts on
ETR rising edges.
The delay between the rising edge of the ETR signal and the actual reset of the counter is
due to the resynchronization circuit on ETRP input.

Bits 6:4 MMS[1:0]: Master mode selection
These bits allow to select the information to be sent in master mode to slave timers for
synchronization (TRGO). The combination is as follows:
000: Reset - the UG bit from the TIMx_EGR register is used as trigger output (TRGO). If the
reset is generated by the trigger input (slave mode controller configured in reset mode) then
the signal on TRGO is delayed compared to the actual reset.
001: Enable - the Counter Enable signal CNT_EN is used as trigger output (TRGO). It is
useful to start several timers at the same time or to control a window in which a slave timer is
enable. The Counter Enable signal is generated by a logic OR between CEN control bit and
the trigger input when configured in gated mode. When the Counter Enable signal is
controlled by the trigger input, there is a delay on TRGO, except if the master/slave mode is
selected (see the MSM bit description in TIMx_SMCR register).
010: Update - The update event is selected as trigger output (TRGO). For instance a master
timer can then be used as a prescaler for a slave timer.
011: Compare Pulse - The trigger output send a positive pulse when the CC1IF flag is to be
set (even if it was already high), as soon as a capture or a compare match occurred.

Bit 15 ETP: External trigger polarity

This bit selects whether ETR or ETR is used for trigger operations
0: ETR is non-inverted, active at high level or rising edge.
1: ETR is inverted, active at low level or falling edge.
Bit 14 ECE: External clock enable
This bit enables External clock mode 2.
0: External clock mode 2 disabled.
1: External clock mode 2 enabled. The counter is clocked by any active edge on the ETRF
signal.
Note: 1: Setting the ECE bit has the same effect as selecting external clock mode 1 with
TRGI connected to ETRF (SMS=111 and TS=111).
2: It is possible to simultaneously use external clock mode 2 with the following slave
modes: reset mode, gated mode and trigger mode. Nevertheless, TRGI must not be
connected to ETRF in this case (TS bits must not be 111).
3: If external clock mode 1 and external clock mode 2 are enabled at the same time,
the external clock input is ETRF.
Bits 13:12 ETPS[1:0]: External trigger prescaler

Bits 2:0 SMS: Slave mode selection

When external signals are selected the active edge of the trigger signal (TRGI) is linked to
the polarity selected on the external input (see Input Control register and Control Register
description.
000: Slave mode disabled - if CEN = ‘1’ then the prescaler is clocked directly by the internal
clock.
001: Encoder mode 1 - Counter counts up/down on TI2FP2 edge depending on TI1FP1
level.
010: Encoder mode 2 - Counter counts up/down on TI1FP1 edge depending on TI2FP2
level.
011: Encoder mode 3 - Counter counts up/down on both TI1FP1 and TI2FP2 edges
depending on the level of the other input.
100: Reset Mode - Rising edge of the selected trigger input (TRGI) reinitializes the counter
and generates an update of the registers.
101: Gated Mode - The counter clock is enabled when the trigger input (TRGI) is high. The
counter stops (but is not reset) as soon as the trigger becomes low. Both start and stop of
the counter are controlled.
110: Trigger Mode - The counter starts at a rising edge of the trigger TRGI (but it is not
reset). Only the start of the counter is controlled.
111: External Clock Mode 1 - Rising edges of the selected trigger (TRGI) clock the counter.
Note: The gated mode must not be used if TI1F_ED is selected as the trigger input
(TS=’100’). Indeed, TI1F_ED outputs 1 pulse for each transition on TI1F, whereas the
gated mode checks the level of the trigger signal.

Bit 1 CC1G: Capture/Compare 1 generation
This bit is set by software in order to generate an event, it is automatically cleared by
hardware.
0: No action.
1: A capture/compare event is generated on channel 1:
If channel CC1 is configured as output:
CC1IF flag is set, Corresponding interrupt or DMA request is sent if enabled.
If channel CC1 is configured as input:
The current value of the counter is captured in TIMx_CCR1 register. The CC1IF flag is set,
the corresponding interrupt or DMA request is sent if enabled. The CC1OF flag is set if the
CC1IF flag was already high.
Bit 0 UG: Update generation
This bit can be set by software, it is automatically cleared by hardware.
0: No action.
1: Reinitialize the counter and generates an update of the registers. Note that the prescaler
counter is cleared too (anyway the prescaler ratio is not affected). The counter is cleared if
the center-aligned mode is selected or if DIR=0 (upcounting), else it takes the auto-reload
value (TIMx_ARR) if DIR=1 (downcounting).

13.4.7 TIM1&TIM8 capture/compare mode register 1 (TIMx_CCMR1)

Address offset: 0x18
Reset value: 0x0000
The channels can be used in input (capture mode) or in output (compare mode). The
direction of a channel is defined by configuring the corresponding CCxS bits. All the other
bits of this register have a different function in input and in output mode. For a given bit,
OCxx describes its function when the channel is configured in output, ICxx describes its
function when the channel is configured in input. So you must take care that the same bit
can have a different meaning for the input stage and for the output stage.

Bits 6:4 OC1M: Output Compare 1 mode

These bits define the behavior of the output reference signal OC1REF from which OC1 and
OC1N are derived. OC1REF is active high whereas OC1 and OC1N active level depends on
CC1P and CC1NP bits.
000: Frozen - The comparison between the output compare register TIMx_CCR1 and the
counter TIMx_CNT has no effect on the outputs.
001: Set channel 1 to active level on match. OC1REF signal is forced high when the counter
TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).
010: Set channel 1 to inactive level on match. OC1REF signal is forced low when the
counter TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).
011: Toggle - OC1REF toggles when TIMx_CNT=TIMx_CCR1.
100: Force inactive level - OC1REF is forced low.
101: Force active level - OC1REF is forced high.
110: PWM mode 1 - In upcounting, channel 1 is active as long as TIMx_CNT<TIMx_CCR1
else inactive. In downcounting, channel 1 is inactive (OC1REF=‘0’) as long as
TIMx_CNT>TIMx_CCR1 else active (OC1REF=’1’).
111: PWM mode 2 - In upcounting, channel 1 is inactive as long as TIMx_CNT<TIMx_CCR1
else active. In downcounting, channel 1 is active as long as TIMx_CNT>TIMx_CCR1 else
inactive.
Note: 1: These bits can not be modified as long as LOCK level 3 has been programmed
(LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register) and CC1S=’00’ (the channel is configured in
output).
2: In PWM mode 1 or 2, the OCREF level changes only when the result of the
comparison changes or when the output compare mode switches from “frozen” mode
to “PWM” mode.

Bit 3 OC1PE: Output Compare 1 preload enable

0: Preload register on TIMx_CCR1 disabled. TIMx_CCR1 can be written at anytime, the
new value is taken in account immediately.
1: Preload register on TIMx_CCR1 enabled. Read/Write operations access the preload
register. TIMx_CCR1 preload value is loaded in the active register at each update event.
Note: 1: These bits can not be modified as long as LOCK level 3 has been programmed
(LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register) and CC1S=’00’ (the channel is configured in
output).
2: The PWM mode can be used without validating the preload register only in one
pulse mode (OPM bit set in TIMx_CR1 register). Else the behavior is not guaranteed.
Bit 2 OC1FE: Output Compare 1 fast enable
This bit is used to accelerate the effect of an event on the trigger in input on the CC output.
0: CC1 behaves normally depending on counter and CCR1 values even when the trigger is
ON. The minimum delay to activate CC1 output when an edge occurs on the trigger input is
5 clock cycles.
1: An active edge on the trigger input acts like a compare match on CC1 output. Then, OC is
set to the compare level independently from the result of the comparison. Delay to sample
the trigger input and to activate CC1 output is reduced to 3 clock cycles. OCFE acts only if
the channel is configured in PWM1 or PWM2 mode.

If channel CC4 is configured as output:
CCR4 is the value to be loaded in the actual capture/compare 4 register (preload value).
It is loaded permanently if the preload feature is not selected in the TIMx_CCMR4 register (bit
OC4PE). Else the preload value is copied in the active capture/compare 4 register when an
update event occurs.
The active capture/compare register contains the value to be compared to the counter
TIMx_CNT and signalled on OC4 output.
If channel CC4 is configured as input:
CCR4 is the counter value transferred by the last input capture 4 event (IC4).

Bits 7:0 DTG[7:0]: Dead-time generator setup

This bit-field defines the duration of the dead-time inserted between the complementary
outputs. DT correspond to this duration.
DTG[7:5]=0xx => DT=DTG[7:0]x tdtg with tdtg=tDTS.
DTG[7:5]=10x => DT=(64+DTG[5:0])xtdtg with Tdtg=2xtDTS.
DTG[7:5]=110 => DT=(32+DTG[4:0])xtdtg with Tdtg=8xtDTS.
DTG[7:5]=111 => DT=(32+DTG[4:0])xtdtg with Tdtg=16xtDTS.
Example if TDTS=125ns (8MHz), dead-time possible values are:
0 to 15875 ns by 125 ns steps,
16 us to 31750 ns by 250 ns steps,
32 us to 63us by 1 us steps,

Bits 15:13 Reserved, always read as 0

Bits 12:8 DBL[4:0]: DMA burst length
This 5-bit vector defines the length of DMA transfers (the timer recognizes a burst transfer
when a read or a write access is done to the TIMx_DMAR address), i.e. the number of
transfers. Transfers can be in half-words or in bytes (see example below).
00000: 1 transfer,
00001: 2 transfers,
00010: 3 transfers,
...
10001: 18 transfers.
Example: Let us consider the following transfer: DBL = 7 bytes & DBA = TIM2_CR1.
– If DBL = 7 bytes and DBA = TIM2_CR1 represents the address of the byte to be transferred,
the address of the transfer should be given by the following equation:
(TIMx_CR1 address) + DBA + (DMA index), where DMA index = DBL
In this example, 7 bytes are added to (TIMx_CR1 address) + DBA, which gives us the address
from/to which the data will be copied. In this case, the transfer is done to 7 registers starting
from the following address: (TIMx_CR1 address) + DBA
According to the configuration of the DMA Data Size, several cases may occur:
– If you configure the DMA Data Size in half-words, 16-bit data will be transferred to each of
the 7 registers.
– If you configure the DMA Data Size in bytes, the data will aslo be transferred to 7 registers:
the first register will contain the first MSB byte, the second register, the first LSB byte and so
on. So with the transfer Timer, you also have to specify the size of data transferred by DMA.

Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This Section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.

14.1 TIMx introduction

The general-purpose timers consist of a 16-bit auto-reload counter driven by a
programmable prescaler.
They may be used for a variety of purposes, including measuring the pulse lengths of input
signals (input capture) or generating output waveforms (output compare and PWM).
Pulse lengths and waveform periods can be modulated from a few microseconds to several
milliseconds using the timer prescaler and the RCC clock controller prescalers.
The timers are completely independent, and do not share any resources. They can be
synchronized together as described in Section 14.3.15.

several timers between them.
● Interrupt/DMA generation on the following events:
– Update: counter overflow/underflow, counter initialization (by software or
internal/external trigger)
– Trigger event (counter start, stop, initialization or count by internal/external trigger)
– Input capture
– Output compare
● Supports incremental (quadrature) encoder and hall-sensor cicuitry for positioning
purposes
● Trigger intput for external clock or cycle-by-cycle current management

14.3 TIMx functional description

14.3.1 Time-base unit

The main block of the programmable timer is a 16-bit counter with its related auto-reload
register. The counter can count up, down or both up and down. The counter clock can be
divided by a prescaler.
The counter, the auto-reload register and the prescaler register can be written or read by
software. This is true even when the counter is running.
The time-base unit includes:
● Counter Register (TIMx_CNT)
● Prescaler Register (TIMx_PSC):
● Auto-Reload Register (TIMx_ARR)

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 321/995

General-purpose timer (TIMx) RM0008

The auto-reload register is preloaded. Writing to or reading from the auto-reload register
accesses the preload register. The content of the preload register are transferred into the
shadow register permanently or at each update event (UEV), depending on the auto-reload
preload enable bit (ARPE) in TIMx_CR1 register. The update event is sent when the counter
reaches the overflow (or underflow when downcounting) and if the UDIS bit equals 0 in the
TIMx_CR1 register. It can also be generated by software. The generation of the update
event is described in detail for each configuration.
The counter is clocked by the prescaler output CK_CNT, which is enabled only when the
counter enable bit (CEN) in TIMx_CR1 register is set (refer also to the slave mode controller
description to get more details on counter enabling).
Note that the actual counter enable signal CNT_EN is set 1 clock cycle after CEN.

Prescaler description
The prescaler can divide the counter clock frequency by any factor between 1 and 65536. It
is based on a 16-bit counter controlled through a 16-bit register (in the TIMx_PSC register).
It can be changed on the fly as this control register is buffered. The new prescaler ratio is
taken into account at the next update event.
Figure 100 and Figure 101 give some examples of the counter behavior when the prescaler
ratio is changed on the fly:

14.3.2 Counter modes

upcounting mode
In upcounting mode, the counter counts from 0 to the auto-reload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register), then restarts from 0 and generates a counter overflow event.
An Update event can be generated at each counter overflow or by setting the UG bit in the
TIMx_EGR register (by software or by using the slave mode controller).
The UEV event can be disabled by software by setting the UDIS bit in TIMx_CR1 register.
This is to avoid updating the shadow registers while writing new values in the preload
registers. Then no update event occurs until the UDIS bit has been written to 0. However,
the counter restarts from 0, as well as the counter of the prescaler (but the prescale rate
does not change). In addition, if the URS bit (update request selection) in TIMx_CR1
register is set, setting the UG bit generates an update event UEV but without setting the UIF
flag (thus no interrupt or DMA request is sent). This is to avoid generating both update and
capture interrupts when clearing the counter on the capture event.
When an update event occurs, all the registers are updated and the update flag (UIF bit in
TIMx_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):
● The buffer of the prescaler is reloaded with the preload value (content of the TIMx_PSC
register)
● The auto-reload shadow register is updated with the preload value (TIMx_ARR)
The following figures show some examples of the counter behavior for different clock
frequencies when TIMx_ARR=0x36.

Downcounting mode
In downcounting mode, the counter counts from the auto-reload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register) down to 0, then restarts from the auto-reload value and generates a
counter underflow event.
An Update event can be generate at each counter underflow or by setting the UG bit in the
TIMx_EGR register (by software or by using the slave mode controller)
The UEV update event can be disabled by software by setting the UDIS bit in TIMx_CR1
register. This is to avoid updating the shadow registers while writing new values in the
preload registers. Then no update event occurs until UDIS bit has been written to 0.
However, the counter restarts from the current auto-reload value, whereas the counter of the
prescaler restarts from 0 (but the prescale rate doesn’t change).
In addition, if the URS bit (update request selection) in TIMx_CR1 register is set, setting the
UG bit generates an update event UEV but without setting the UIF flag (thus no interrupt or
DMA request is sent). This is to avoid generating both update and capture interrupts when
clearing the counter on the capture event.
When an update event occurs, all the registers are updated and the update flag (UIF bit in
TIMx_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):
● The buffer of the prescaler is reloaded with the preload value (content of the TIMx_PSC
register).
● The auto-reload active register is updated with the preload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register). Note that the auto-reload is updated before the counter is
reloaded, so that the next period is the expected one.
The following figures show some examples of the counter behavior for different clock
frequencies when TIMx_ARR=0x36.

Center-aligned mode (up/down counting)

In center-aligned mode, the counter counts from 0 to the auto-reload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register) – 1, generates a counter overflow event, then counts from the auto-
reload value down to 1 and generates a counter underflow event. Then it restarts counting
from 0.
In this mode, the direction bit (DIR from TIMx_CR1 register) cannot be written. It is updated
by hardware and gives the current direction of the counter.
The update event can be generated at each counter overflow and at each counter underflow
or by setting the UG bit in the TIMx_EGR register (by software or by using the slave mode
controller) also generates an update event. In this case, the counter restarts counting from
0, as well as the counter of the prescaler.
The UEV update event can be disabled by software by setting the UDIS bit in TIMx_CR1
register. This is to avoid updating the shadow registers while writing new values in the
preload registers. Then no update event occurs until the UDIS bit has been written to 0.
However, the counter continues counting up and down, based on the current auto-reload
value.

328/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 General-purpose timer (TIMx)

In addition, if the URS bit (update request selection) in TIMx_CR1 register is set, setting the
UG bit generates an update event UEV but without setting the UIF flag (thus no interrupt or
DMA request is sent). This is to avoid generating both update and capture interrupt when
clearing the counter on the capture event.
When an update event occurs, all the registers are updated and the update flag (UIF bit in
TIMx_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):
● The buffer of the prescaler is reloaded with the preload value (content of the TIMx_PSC
register).
● The auto-reload active register is updated with the preload value (content of the
TIMx_ARR register). Note that if the update source is a counter overflow, the auto-
reload is updated before the counter is reloaded, so that the next period is the expected
one (the counter is loaded with the new value).

frequencies.

14.3.3 Clock selection

The counter clock can be provided by the following clock sources:
● Internal clock (CK_INT)
● External clock mode1: external input pin (TIx)
● External clock mode2: external trigger input (ETR)
● Internal trigger inputs (ITRx) : using one timer as prescaler for another timer, for
example, you can configure Timer 1 to act as a prescaler for Timer 2. Refer to : Using
one timer as prescaler for the another on page 350 for more details.

Internal clock source (CK_INT)

If the slave mode controller is disabled (SMS=000 in the TIMx_SMCR register), then the
CEN, DIR (in the TIMx_CR1 register) and UG bits (in the TIMx_EGR register) are actual
control bits and can be changed only by software (except UG which remains cleared
automatically). As soon as the CEN bit is written to 1, the prescaler is clocked by the internal
clock CK_INT.
Figure 119 shows the behavior of the control circuit and the upcounter in normal mode,
without prescaler.

For example, to configure the upcounter to count in response to a rising edge on the TI2
input, use the following procedure:
1. Configure channel 2 to detect rising edges on the TI2 input by writing CC2S= ‘01’ in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register.
2. Configure the input filter duration by writing the IC2F[3:0] bits in the TIMx_CCMR1
register (if no filter is needed, keep IC2F=0000).
Note: The capture prescaler is not used for triggering, so you don’t need to configure it.
3. Select rising edge polarity by writing CC2P=0 in the TIMx_CCER register.
4. Configure the timer in external clock mode 1 by writing SMS=111 in the TIMx_SMCR
register.
5. Select TI2 as the input source by writing TS=110 in the TIMx_SMCR register.
6. Enable the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register.
When a rising edge occurs on TI2, the counter counts once and the TIF flag is set.

14.3.4 Capture/compare channels

Each Capture/Compare channel is built around a capture/compare register (including a
shadow register), a input stage for capture (with digital filter, multiplexing and prescaler) and
an output stage (with comparator and output control).
The following figure gives an overview of one Capture/Compare channel.
The input stage samples the corresponding TIx input to generate a filtered signal TIxF.
Then, an edge detector with polarity selection generates a signal (TIxFPx) which can be
used as trigger input by the slave mode controller or as the capture command. It is
prescaled before the capture register (ICxPS).

The capture/compare block is made of one preload register and one shadow register. Write

In capture mode, captures are actually done in the shadow register, which is copied into the
preload register.
In compare mode, the content of the preload register is copied into the shadow register
which is compared to the counter.

14.3.5 Input capture mode

In Input capture mode, the Capture/Compare Registers (TIMx_CCRx) are used to latch the
value of the counter after a transition detected by the corresponding ICx signal. When a
capture occurs, the corresponding CCXIF flag (TIMx_SR register) is set and an interrupt or
a DMA request can be sent if they are enabled. If a capture occurs while the CCxIF flag was
already high, then the over-capture flag CCxOF (TIMx_SR register) is set. CCxIF can be
cleared by software by writing it to ‘0’ or by reading the captured data stored in the
TIMx_CCRx register. CCxOF is cleared when you write it to ‘0’.
The following example shows how to capture the counter value in TIMx_CCR1 when TI1
input rises. To do this, use the following procedure:
● Select the active input: TIMx_CCR1 must be linked to the TI1 input, so write the CC1S
bits to 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register. As soon as CC1S becomes different from 00,
the channel is configured in input and the TIMx_CCR1 register becomes read-only.
● Program the input filter duration you need with respect to the signal you connect to the
timer (when the input is one of the TIx (ICxF bits in the TIMx_CCMRx register). Let’s
imagine that, when toggling, the input signal is not stable during at must 5 internal clock
cycles. We must program a filter duration longer than these 5 clock cycles. We can
validate a transition on TI1 when 8 consecutive samples with the new level have been
detected (sampled at fDTS frequency). Then write IC1F bits to 0011 in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register.
● Select the edge of the active transition on the TI1 channel by writing CC1P bit to 0 in
the TIMx_CCER register (rising edge in this case).
● Program the input prescaler. In our example, we wish the capture to be performed at
each valid transition, so the prescaler is disabled (write IC1PS bits to 00 in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register).
● Enable capture from the counter into the capture register by setting the CC1E bit in the
TIMx_CCER register.
● If needed, enable the related interrupt request by setting the CC1IE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register, and/or the DMA request by setting the CC1DE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register.
When an input capture occurs:
● The TIMx_CCR1 register gets the value of the counter on the active transition.
● CC1IF flag is set (interrupt flag). CC1OF is also set if at least two consecutive captures
occurred whereas the flag was not cleared.
● An interrupt is generated depending on the CC1IE bit.
● A DMA request is generated depending on the CC1DE bit.
In order to handle the overcapture, it is recommended to read the data before the
overcapture flag. This is to avoid missing an overcapture which could happen after reading
the flag and before reading the data.
Note: IC interrupt and/or DMA requests can be generated by software by setting the
corresponding CCxG bit in the TIMx_EGR register.

14.3.6 PWM input mode

This mode is a particular case of input capture mode. The procedure is the same except:
● Two ICx signals are mapped on the same TIx input.
● These 2 ICx signals are active on edges with opposite polarity.
● One of the two TIxFP signals is selected as trigger input and the slave mode controller
is configured in reset mode.
For example, you can measure the period (in TIMx_CCR1 register) and the duty cycle (in
TIMx_CCR2 register) of the PWM applied on TI1 using the following procedure (depending
on CK_INT frequency and prescaler value):
● Select the active input for TIMx_CCR1: write the CC1S bits to 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1
register (TI1 selected).
● Select the active polarity for TI1FP1 (used both for capture in TIMx_CCR1 and counter
clear): write the CC1P bit to ‘0’ (active on rising edge).
● Select the active input for TIMx_CCR2: write the CC2S bits to 10 in the TIMx_CCMR1
register (TI1 selected).
● Select the active polarity for TI1FP2 (used for capture in TIMx_CCR2): write the CC2P
bit to ‘1’ (active on falling edge).
● Select the valid trigger input: write the TS bits to 101 in the TIMx_SMCR register
(TI1FP1 selected).
● Configure the slave mode controller in reset mode: write the SMS bits to 100 in the
TIMx_SMCR register.
● Enable the captures: write the CC1E and CC2E bits to ‘1’ in the TIMx_CCER register.

1. The PWM input mode can be used only with the TIMx_CH1/TIMx_CH2 signals due to the fact that only
TI1FP1 and TI2FP2 are connected to the slave mode controller.

14.3.7 Forced output mode

In output mode (CCxS bits = 00 in the TIMx_CCMRx register), each output compare signal
(OCxREF and then OCx) can be forced to active or inactive level directly by software,
independently of any comparison between the output compare register and the counter.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 337/995

General-purpose timer (TIMx) RM0008

To force an output compare signal (ocxref/OCx) to its active level, you just need to write 101
in the OCxM bits in the corresponding TIMx_CCMRx register. Thus ocxref is forced high
(OCxREF is always active high) and OCx get opposite value to CCxP polarity bit.
e.g.: CCxP=0 (OCx active high) => OCx is forced to high level.
ocxref signal can be forced low by writing the OCxM bits to 100 in the TIMx_CCMRx
register.
Anyway, the comparison between the TIMx_CCRx shadow register and the counter is still
performed and allows the flag to be set. Interrupt and DMA requests can be sent
accordingly. This is described in the Output Compare Mode section.

14.3.8 Output compare mode

This function is used to control an output waveform or indicating when a period of time has
elapsed.
When a match is found between the capture/compare register and the counter, the output
compare function:
● Assigns the corresponding output pin to a programmable value defined by the output
compare mode (OCxM bits in the TIMx_CCMRx register) and the output polarity (CCxP
bit in the TIMx_CCER register). The output pin can keep its level (OCXM=000), be set
active (OCxM=001), be set inactive (OCxM=010) or can toggle (OCxM=011) on match.
● Sets a flag in the interrupt status register (CCxIF bit in the TIMx_SR register).
● Generates an interrupt if the corresponding interrupt mask is set (CCXIE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register).
● Sends a DMA request if the corresponding enable bit is set (CCxDE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register, CCDS bit in the TIMx_CR2 register for the DMA request
selection).
The TIMx_CCRx registers can be programmed with or without preload registers using the
OCxPE bit in the TIMx_CCMRx register.
In output compare mode, the update event UEV has no effect on ocxref and OCx output.
The timing resolution is one count of the counter. Output compare mode can also be used to
output a single pulse (in One Pulse Mode).
Procedure:
1. Select the counter clock (internal, external, prescaler).
2. Write the desired data in the TIMx_ARR and TIMx_CCRx registers.
3. Set the CCxIE and/or CCxDE bits if an interrupt and/or a DMA request is to be
generated.
4. Select the output mode. For example, you must write OCxM=’011’, OCxPE=’0’,
CCxP=’0’ and CCxE=’1’ to toggle OCx output pin when CNT matches CCRx, CCRx
preload is not used, OCx is enabled and active high.
5. Enable the counter by setting the CEN bit in the TIMx_CR1 register.
The TIMx_CCRx register can be updated at any time by software to control the output
waveform, provided that the preload register is not enabled (OCxPE=’0’, else TIMx_CCRx
shadow register is updated only at the next update event UEV). An example is given in
Figure 128.

14.3.9 PWM mode

Pulse Width Modulation mode allows you to generate a signal with a frequency determined
by the value of the TIMx_ARR register and a duty cycle determined by the value of the
TIMx_CCRx register.
The PWM mode can be selected independently on each channel (one PWM per OCx
output) by writing ‘110’ (PWM mode 1) or ‘111’ (PWM mode 2) in the OCxM bits in the
TIMx_CCMRx register. You must enable the corresponding preload register by setting the
OCxPE bit in the TIMx_CCMRx register, and eventually the auto-reload preload register (in
upcounting or center-aligned modes) by setting the ARPE bit in the TIMx_CR1 register.
As the preload registers are transferred to the shadow registers only when an update event
occurs, before starting the counter, you have to initialize all the registers by setting the UG
bit in the TIMx_EGR register.
OCx polarity is software programmable using the CCxP bit in the TIMx_CCER register. It
can be programmed as active high or active low. OCx output is enabled by the CCxE bit in
the TIMx_CCER register. Refer to the TIMx_CCERx register description for more details.
In PWM mode (1 or 2), TIMx_CNT and TIMx_CCRx are always compared to determine
whether TIMx_CCRx TIMx_CNT or TIMx_CNT TIMx_CCRx (depending on the direction
of the counter). However, to comply with the OCREF_CLR functionality (OCREF can be
cleared by an external event through the ETR signal until the next PWM period), the OCREF
signal is asserted only:
● When the result of the comparison changes, or
● When the output compare mode (OCxM bits in TIMx_CCMRx register) switches from
the “frozen” configuration (no comparison, OCxM=‘000’) to one of the PWM modes
(OCxM=‘110’ or ‘111’).
This allows to force the PWM by software while running.
The timer is able to generate PWM in edge-aligned mode or center-aligned mode
depending on the CMS bits in the TIMx_CR1 register.

In the following example, we consider PWM mode 1. The reference PWM signal OCxREF is
high as long as TIMx_CNT <TIMx_CCRx else it becomes low. If the compare value in
TIMx_CCRx is greater than the auto-reload value (in TIMx_ARR) then OCxREF is held at
‘1’. If the compare value is 0 then OCxREF is held at ‘0’. Figure 129 shows some edge-
aligned PWM waveforms in an example where TIMx_ARR=8.

In PWM mode 1, the reference signal ocxref is low as long as TIMx_CNT>TIMx_CCRx else
it becomes high. If the compare value in TIMx_CCRx is greater than the auto-reload value in
TIMx_ARR, then ocxref is held at ‘1’. 0% PWM is not possible in this mode.

PWM center-aligned mode

Center-aligned mode is active when the CMS bits in TIMx_CR1 register are different from
‘00’ (all the remaining configurations having the same effect on the ocxref/OCx signals). The
compare flag is set when the counter counts up, when it counts down or both when it counts
up and down depending on the CMS bits configuration. The direction bit (DIR) in the
TIMx_CR1 register is updated by hardware and must not be changed by software. Refer to
the Center-aligned mode (up/down counting) on page 328.
Figure 130 shows some center-aligned PWM waveforms in an example where:
● TIMx_ARR=8,
● PWM mode is the PWM mode 1,
● The flag is set when the counter counts down corresponding to the center-aligned
mode 1 selected for CMS=01 in TIMx_CR1 register.

Hints on using center-aligned mode:

● When starting in center-aligned mode, the current up-down configuration is used. It
means that the counter counts up or down depending on the value written in the DIR bit
in the TIMx_CR1 register. Moreover, the DIR and CMS bits must not be changed at the
same time by the software.
● Writing to the counter while running in center-aligned mode is not recommended as it
can lead to unexpected results. In particular:
– The direction is not updated if you write a value in the counter that is greater than
the auto-reload value (TIMx_CNT>TIMx_ARR). For example, if the counter was
counting up, it continues to count up.
– The direction is updated if you write 0 or write the TIMx_ARR value in the counter
but no Update Event UEV is generated.
● The safest way to use center-aligned mode is to generate an update by software
(setting the UG bit in the TIMx_EGR register) just before starting the counter and not to
write the counter while it is running.

14.3.10 One pulse mode

One Pulse Mode (OPM) is a particular case of the previous modes. It allows the counter to
be started in response to a stimulus and to generate a pulse with a programmable length
after a programmable delay.
Starting the counter can be controlled through the slave mode controller. Generating the
waveform can be done in output compare mode or PWM mode. You select One Pulse Mode
by setting the OPM bit in the TIMx_CR1 register. This makes the counter stop automatically
at the next update event UEV.
A pulse can be correctly generated only if the compare value is different from the counter
initial value. Before starting (when the timer is waiting for the trigger), the configuration must
be:
In upcounting: CNT<CCRx ARR (in particular, 0<CCRx),
In downcounting: CNT>CCRx.

For example you may want to generate a positive pulse on OC1 with a length of tPULSE and
after a delay of tDELAY as soon as a positive edge is detected on the TI2 input pin.
Let’s use TI2FP2 as trigger 1:
● Map TI2FP2 on TI2 by writing IC2S=’01’ in the TIMx_CCMR1 register.
● TI2FP2 must detect a rising edge, write CC2P=’0’ in the TIMx_CCER register.
● Configure TI2FP2 as trigger for the slave mode controller (TRGI) by writing TS=’110’ in
the TIMx_SMCR register.
● TI2FP2 is used to start the counter by writing SMS to ‘110’ in the TIMx_SMCR register
(trigger mode).

342/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 General-purpose timer (TIMx)

The OPM waveform is defined by writing the compare registers (taking into account the
clock frequency and the counter prescaler).
● The tDELAY is defined by the value written in the TIMx_CCR1 register.
● The tPULSE is defined by the difference between the auto-reload value and the compare
value (TIMx_ARR - TIMx_CCR1).
● Let’s say you want to build a waveform with a transition from ‘0’ to ‘1’ when a compare
match occurs and a transition from ‘1’ to ‘0’ when the counter reaches the auto-reload
value. To do this you enable PWM mode 2 by writing OC1M=111 in the TIMx_CCMR1
register. You can optionally enable the preload registers by writing OC1PE=’1’ in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register and ARPE in the TIMx_CR1 register. In this case you have to
write the compare value in the TIMx_CCR1 register, the auto-reload value in the
TIMx_ARR register, generate an update by setting the UG bit and wait for external
trigger event on TI2. CC1P is written to ‘0’ in this example.
In our example, the DIR and CMS bits in the TIMx_CR1 register should be low.
You only want 1 pulse, so you write ‘1’ in the OPM bit in the TIMx_CR1 register to stop the
counter at the next update event (when the counter rolls over from the auto-reload value
back to 0).

Particular case: OCx fast enable:

In One Pulse Mode, the edge detection on TIx input set the CEN bit which enables the
counter. Then the comparison between the counter and the compare value makes the
output toggle. But several clock cycles are needed for these operations and it limits the
minimum delay tDELAY min we can get.
If you want to output a waveform with the minimum delay, you can set the OCxFE bit in the
TIMx_CCMRx register. Then OCxRef (and OCx) is forced in response to the stimulus,
without taking in account the comparison. Its new level is the same as if a compare match
had occurred. OCxFE acts only if the channel is configured in PWM1 or PWM2 mode.

14.3.11 Clearing the OCxREF signal on an external event

The OCxREF signal for a given channel can be reset by applying a High level on the ETRF
input (OCxCE enable bit of the corresponding TIMx_CCMRx register set to ‘1’). The
OCxREF remains low until the next update event, UEV, occurs.
This function can be only used in output compare mode and PWM mode. It does not work in
forced mode.
For example, the OCxREF signal can be connected to the output of a comparator to be used
for current handling. In this case, the ETR must be configured as follow:
1. The external trigger prescaler should be kept off: bits ETPS[1:0] of the TIMx_SMCR
register set to ‘00’.
2. The external clock mode 2 must be disabled: bit ECE of the TIM1_SMCR register set to
‘0’.
3. The external trigger polarity (ETP) and the external trigger filter (ETF) can be
configured according to the user needs.
Figure 132 shows the behavior of the OCxREF signal when the ETRF Input becomes High,
for both values of the enable bit OCxCE. In this example, the timer TIMx is programmed in
PWM mode.

14.3.12 Encoder interface mode

To select Encoder Interface mode write SMS=‘001’ in the TIMx_SMCR register if the
counter is counting on TI2 edges only, SMS=’010’ if it is counting on TI1 edges only and
SMS=’011’ if it is counting on both TI1 and TI2 edges.
Select the TI1 and TI2 polarity by programming the CC1P and CC2P bits in the TIMx_CCER
register. When needed, you can program the input filter as well.
The two inputs TI1 and TI2 are used to interface to an incremental encoder. Refer to
Table 75. The counter is clocked by each valid transition on TI1FP1 or TI2FP2 (TI1 and TI2
after input filter and polarity selection, TI1FP1=TI1 if not filtered and not inverted,
TI2FP2=TI2 if not filtered and not inverted) assuming that it is enabled (CEN bit in
TIMx_CR1 register written to ‘1’). The sequence of transitions of the two inputs is evaluated
and generates count pulses as well as the direction signal. Depending on the sequence the
counter counts up or down, the DIR bit in the TIMx_CR1 register is modified by hardware
accordingly. The DIR bit is calculated at each transition on any input (TI1 or TI2), whatever
the counter is counting on TI1 only, TI2 only or both TI1 and TI2.
Encoder interface mode acts simply as an external clock with direction selection. This
means that the counter just counts continuously between 0 and the auto-reload value in the
TIMx_ARR register (0 to ARR or ARR down to 0 depending on the direction). So you must
configure TIMx_ARR before starting. In the same way, the capture, compare, prescaler,
trigger output features continue to work as normal.
In this mode, the counter is modified automatically following the speed and the direction of
the incremental encoder and its content, therefore, always represents the encoder’s
position. The count direction correspond to the rotation direction of the connected sensor.
The table summarizes the possible combinations, assuming TI1 and TI2 don’t switch at the
same time.

An external incremental encoder can be connected directly to the MCU without external
interface logic. However, comparators are normally be used to convert the encoder’s
differential outputs to digital signals. This greatly increases noise immunity. The third
encoder output which indicate the mechanical zero position, may be connected to an
external interrupt input and trigger a counter reset.
The Figure 133 gives an example of counter operation, showing count signal generation and
direction control. It also shows how input jitter is compensated where both edges are
selected. This might occur if the sensor is positioned near to one of the switching points. For
this example we assume that the configuration is the following:
● CC1S=’01’ (TIMx_CCMR1 register, IC1FP1 mapped on TI1).
● CC2S=’01’ (TIMx_CCMR2 register, IC2FP2 mapped on TI2).
● CC1P=’0’ (TIMx_CCER register, IC1FP1 non-inverted, IC1FP1=TI1).
● CC2P=’0’ (TIMx_CCER register, IC2FP2 non-inverted, IC2FP2=TI2).
● SMS=’011’ (TIMx_SMCR register, both inputs are active on both rising and falling
edges).
● CEN=’1’ (TIMx_CR1 register, Counter is enabled).

The timer, when configured in Encoder Interface mode provides information on the sensor’s
current position. You can obtain dynamic information (speed, acceleration, deceleration) by
measuring the period between two encoder events using a second timer configured in
capture mode. The output of the encoder which indicates the mechanical zero can be used
for this purpose. Depending on the time between two events, the counter can also be read
at regular times. You can do this by latching the counter value into a third input capture
register if available (then the capture signal must be periodic and can be generated by
another timer). when available, it is also possible to read its value through a DMA request
generated by a Real-Time clock.

14.3.13 Timer input XOR function

The TI1S bit in the TIM1_CR2 register, allows the input filter of channel 1 to be connected to
the output of a XOR gate, combining the three input pins TIMx_CH1 to TIMx_CH3.
The XOR output can be used with all the timer input functions such as trigger or input
capture.
An example of this feature used to interface Hall sensors is given in Section 13.3.18 on page
288.

14.3.14 Timers and external trigger synchronization

The TIMx Timers can be synchronized with an external trigger in several modes: Reset
mode, Gated mode and Trigger mode.

Slave mode: Reset mode

The counter and its prescaler can be reinitialized in response to an event on a trigger input.
Moreover, if the URS bit from the TIMx_CR1 register is low, an update event UEV is
generated. Then all the preloaded registers (TIMx_ARR, TIMx_CCRx) are updated.
In the following example, the upcounter is cleared in response to a rising edge on TI1 input:
● Configure the channel 1 to detect rising edges on TI1. Configure the input filter duration
(in this example, we don’t need any filter, so we keep IC1F=0000). The capture
prescaler is not used for triggering, so you don’t need to configure it. The CC1S bits
select the input capture source only, CC1S = 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register. Write
CC1P=0 in TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect rising edges only).

346/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 General-purpose timer (TIMx)

● Configure the timer in reset mode by writing SMS=100 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select
TI1 as the input source by writing TS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register.
● Start the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register.
The counter starts counting on the internal clock, then behaves normally until TI1 rising
edge. When TI1 rises, the counter is cleared and restarts from 0. In the meantime, the
trigger flag is set (TIF bit in the TIMx_SR register) and an interrupt request, or a DMA
request can be sent if enabled (depending on the TIE and TDE bits in TIMx_DIER register).
The following figure shows this behavior when the auto-reload register TIMx_ARR=0x36.
The delay between the rising edge on TI1 and the actual reset of the counter is due to the
resynchronization circuit on TI1 input.

Slave mode: Gated mode

The counter can be enabled depending on the level of a selected input.
In the following example, the upcounter counts only when TI1 input is low:
● Configure the channel 1 to detect low levels on TI1. Configure the input filter duration
(in this example, we don’t need any filter, so we keep IC1F=0000). The capture
prescaler is not used for triggering, so you don’t need to configure it. The CC1S bits
select the input capture source only, CC1S=01 in TIMx_CCMR1 register. Write
CC1P=1 in TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect low level only).
● Configure the timer in gated mode by writing SMS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select
TI1 as the input source by writing TS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register.
● Enable the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register (in gated mode, the
counter doesn’t start if CEN=0, whatever is the trigger input level).
The counter starts counting on the internal clock as long as TI1 is low and stops as soon as
TI1 becomes high. The TIF flag in the TIMx_SR register is set both when the counter starts
or stops.
The delay between the rising edge on TI1 and the actual stop of the counter is due to the
resynchronization circuit on TI1 input.

The counter can start in response to an event on a selected input.

(in this example, we don’t need any filter, so we keep IC2F=0000). The capture
prescaler is not used for triggering, so you don’t need to configure it. CC2S bits are

TI2 as the input source by writing TS=110 in TIMx_SMCR register.
When a rising edge occurs on TI2, the counter starts counting on the internal clock and the
TIF flag is set.
The delay between the rising edge on TI2 and the actual start of the counter is due to the

Slave mode: External Clock mode 2 + trigger mode

The external clock mode 2 can be used in addition to another slave mode (except external
clock mode 1 and encoder mode). In this case, the ETR signal is used as external clock
input, and another input can be selected as trigger input when operating in reset mode,
gated mode or trigger mode. It is recommended not to select ETR as TRGI through the TS
bits of TIMx_SMCR register.

In the following example, the upcounter is incremented at each rising edge of the ETR signal
as soon as a rising edge of TI1 occurs:
1. Configure the external trigger input circuit by programming the TIMx_SMCR register as
follows:
– ETF = 0000: no filter
– ETPS=00: prescaler disabled
– ETP=0: detection of rising edges on ETR and ECE=1 to enable the external clock
mode 2.
2. Configure the channel 1 as follows, to detect rising edges on TI:
– IC1F=0000: no filter.
– The capture prescaler is not used for triggering and does not need to be
configured.
– CC1S=01in TIMx_CCMR1 register to select only the input capture source
– CC1P=0 in TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect rising edge
only).
3. Configure the timer in trigger mode by writing SMS=110 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select
TI1 as the input source by writing TS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register.
A rising edge on TI1 enables the counter and sets the TIF flag. The counter then counts on
ETR rising edges.
The delay between the rising edge of the ETR signal and the actual reset of the counter is
due to the resynchronization circuit on ETRP input.

14.3.15 Timer synchronization

The TIMx timers are linked together internally for timer synchronization or chaining. When
one Timer is configured in Master Mode, it can reset, start, stop or clock the counter of
another Timer configured in Slave Mode.
The following figure presents an overview of the trigger selection and the master mode
selection blocks.

For example, you can configure Timer 1 to act as a prescaler for Timer 2. Refer to
Figure 139. To do this:
● Configure Timer 1 in master mode so that it outputs a periodic trigger signal on each
update event UEV. If you write MMS=010 in the TIM1_CR2 register, a rising edge is
output on TRGO1 each time an update event is generated.
● To connect the TRGO1 output of Timer 1 to Timer 2, Timer 2 must be configured in
slave mode using ITR1 as internal trigger. You select this through the TS bits in the
TIM2_SMCR register (writing TS=000).
● Then you put the slave mode controller in external clock mode 1 (write SMS=111 in the
TIM2_SMCR register). This causes Timer 2 to be clocked by the rising edge of the
periodic Timer 1 trigger signal (which correspond to the timer 1 counter overflow).
● Finally both timers must be enabled by setting their respective CEN bits (TIMx_CR1
register).
Note: If OCx is selected on Timer 1 as trigger output (MMS=1xx), its rising edge is used to clock
the counter of timer 2.

Using one timer to enable another timer

In this example, we control the enable of Timer 2 with the output compare 1 of Timer 1.
Refer to Figure 139 for connections. Timer 2 counts on the divided internal clock only when
OC1REF of Timer 1 is high. Both counter clock frequencies are divided by 3 by the
prescaler compared to CK_INT (fCK_CNT = fCK_INT/3).
● Configure Timer 1 master mode to send its Output Compare 1 Reference (OC1REF)
signal as trigger output (MMS=100 in the TIM1_CR2 register).
● Configure the Timer 1 OC1REF waveform (TIM1_CCMR1 register).
● Configure Timer 2 to get the input trigger from Timer 1 (TS=000 in the TIM2_SMCR
register).
● Configure Timer 2 in gated mode (SMS=101 in TIM2_SMCR register).
● Enable Timer 2 by writing ‘1’ in the CEN bit (TIM2_CR1 register).
● Start Timer 1 by writing ‘1’ in the CEN bit (TIM1_CR1 register).
Note: The counter 2 clock is not synchronized with counter 1, this mode only affects the Timer 2
counter enable signal.

In the example in Figure 140, the Timer 2 counter and prescaler are not initialized before
being started. So they start counting from their current value. It is possible to start from a
given value by resetting both timers before starting Timer 1. You can then write any value
you want in the timer counters. The timers can easily be reset by software using the UG bit
in the TIMx_EGR registers.
In the next example, we synchronize Timer 1 and Timer 2. Timer 1 is the master and starts
from 0. Timer 2 is the slave and starts from 0xE7. The prescaler ratio is the same for both
timers. Timer 2 stops when Timer 1 is disabled by writing ‘0’ to the CEN bit in the TIM1_CR1
register:
● Configure Timer 1 master mode to send its Output Compare 1 Reference (OC1REF)
signal as trigger output (MMS=100 in the TIM1_CR2 register).
● Configure the Timer 1 OC1REF waveform (TIM1_CCMR1 register).
● Configure Timer 2 to get the input trigger from Timer 1 (TS=000 in the TIM2_SMCR
register).
● Configure Timer 2 in gated mode (SMS=101 in TIM2_SMCR register).
● Reset Timer 1 by writing ‘1’ in UG bit (TIM1_EGR register).
● Reset Timer 2 by writing ‘1’ in UG bit (TIM2_EGR register).
● Initialize Timer 2 to 0xE7 by writing ‘0xE7’ in the timer 2 counter (TIM2_CNTL).
● Enable Timer 2 by writing ‘1’ in the CEN bit (TIM2_CR1 register).
● Start Timer 1 by writing ‘1’ in the CEN bit (TIM1_CR1 register).
● Stop Timer 1 by writing ‘0’ in the CEN bit (TIM1_CR1 register).

When Timer 2 receives the trigger signal its CEN bit is automatically set and the counter
counts until we write ‘0’ to the CEN bit in the TIM2_CR1 register. Both counter clock
frequencies are divided by 3 by the prescaler compared to CK_INT (fCK_CNT = fCK_INT/3).

● Configure the Timer 1 period (TIM1_ARR registers).
● Configure Timer 2 to get the input trigger from Timer 1 (TS=000 in the TIM2_SMCR
register).
● Configure Timer 2 in external clock mode 1 (SMS=111 in TIM2_SMCR register).
● Start Timer 2 by writing ‘1’ in the CEN bit (TIM2_CR1 register).
● Start Timer 1 by writing ‘1’ in the CEN bit (TIM1_CR1 register).

Starting 2 timers synchronously in response to an external trigger

In this example, we set the enable of timer 1 when its TI1 input rises, and the enable of
Timer 2 with the enable of Timer 1. Refer to Figure 139 for connections. To ensure the

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 353/995

General-purpose timer (TIMx) RM0008

counters are aligned, Timer 1 must be configured in Master/Slave mode (slave with respect
to TI1, master with respect to Timer 2):
● Configure Timer 1 master mode to send its Enable as trigger output (MMS=001 in the
TIM1_CR2 register).
● Configure Timer 1 slave mode to get the input trigger from TI1 (TS=100 in the
TIM1_SMCR register).
● Configure Timer 1 in trigger mode (SMS=110 in the TIM1_SMCR register).
● Configure the Timer 1 in Master/Slave mode by writing MSM=’1’ (TIM1_SMCR
register).
● Configure Timer 2 to get the input trigger from Timer 1 (TS=000 in the TIM2_SMCR
register).
● Configure Timer 2 in trigger mode (SMS=110 in the TIM2_SMCR register).
When a rising edge occurs on TI1 (Timer 1), both counters starts counting synchronously on
the internal clock and both TIF flags are set.
Note: In this example both timers are initialized before starting (by setting their respective UG
bits). Both counters starts from 0, but you can easily insert an offset between them by
writing any of the counter registers (TIMx_CNT). You can see that the master/slave mode
insert a delay between CNT_EN and CK_PSC on timer 1.

Bit 2 URS: Update request source

This bit is set and cleared by software to select the UEV event sources.
0: Any of the following events generate an update interrupt or DMA request if enabled.
These events can be:
– Counter overflow/underflow
– Setting the UG bit
– Update generation through the slave mode controller
1: Only counter overflow/underflow generates an update interrupt or DMA request if enabled.
Bit 1 UDIS: Update disable
This bit is set and cleared by software to enable/disable UEV event generation.
0: UEV enabled. The Update (UEV) event is generated by one of the following events:
– Counter overflow/underflow
– Setting the UG bit
– Update generation through the slave mode controller
Buffered registers are then loaded with their preload values.
1: UEV disabled. The Update event is not generated, shadow registers keep their value
(ARR, PSC, CCRx). However the counter and the prescaler are reinitialized if the UG bit is
set or if a hardware reset is received from the slave mode controller.

RM0008 General-purpose timer (TIMx)

Bits 6:4 MMS: Master mode selection

These bits allow to select the information to be sent in master mode to slave timers for
synchronization (TRGO). The combination is as follows:
000: Reset - the UG bit from the TIMx_EGR register is used as trigger output (TRGO). If the
reset is generated by the trigger input (slave mode controller configured in reset mode) then
the signal on TRGO is delayed compared to the actual reset.
001: Enable - the Counter enable signal, CNT_EN, is used as trigger output (TRGO). It is
useful to start several timers at the same time or to control a window in which a slave timer is
enabled. The Counter Enable signal is generated by a logic OR between CEN control bit and
the trigger input when configured in gated mode.
When the Counter Enable signal is controlled by the trigger input, there is a delay on TRGO,
except if the master/slave mode is selected (see the MSM bit description in TIMx_SMCR
register).
010: Update - The update event is selected as trigger output (TRGO). For instance a master
timer can then be used as a prescaler for a slave timer.
011: Compare Pulse - The trigger output send a positive pulse when the CC1IF flag is to be
set (even if it was already high), as soon as a capture or a compare match occurred.

100: Compare - OC1REF signal is used as trigger output (TRGO).
101: Compare - OC2REF signal is used as trigger output (TRGO).
110: Compare - OC3REF signal is used as trigger output (TRGO).
111: Compare - OC4REF signal is used as trigger output (TRGO).
Bit 3 CCDS: Capture/compare DMA selection

Bit 14 ECE: External clock enable

This bit enables External clock mode 2.
0: External clock mode 2 disabled.
1: External clock mode 2 enabled. The counter is clocked by any active edge on the ETRF
signal.
1: Setting the ECE bit has the same effect as selecting external clock mode 1 with TRGI
connected to ETRF (SMS=111 and TS=111).
2: It is possible to simultaneously use external clock mode 2 with the following slave modes:
reset mode, gated mode and trigger mode. Nevertheless, TRGI must not be connected to
ETRF in this case (TS bits must not be 111).
3: If external clock mode 1 and external clock mode 2 are enabled at the same time, the
external clock input is ETRF.
Bits 13:12 ETPS: External trigger prescaler
External trigger signal ETRP frequency must be at most 1/4 of CK_INT frequency. A
prescaler can be enabled to reduce ETRP frequency. It is useful when inputting fast external
clocks.
00: Prescaler OFF.
01: ETRP frequency divided by 2.
10: ETRP frequency divided by 4.
11: ETRP frequency divided by 8.
Bits 11:8 ETF[3:0]: External trigger filter
This bit-field then defines the frequency used to sample ETRP signal and the length of the
digital filter applied to ETRP. The digital filter is made of an event counter in which N events
are needed to validate a transition on the output:
0000: No filter, sampling is done at fDTS.

1110: fSAMPLING=fDTS/32, N=6.
1111: fSAMPLING=fDTS/32, N=8.

Bit 7 MSM: Master/Slave mode

0: No action
1: The effect of an event on the trigger input (TRGI) is delayed to allow a perfect
synchronization between the current timer and its slaves (through TRGO). It is useful if we
want to synchronize several timers on a single external event.

Bit 3 Reserved, always read as 0.
Bits 2:0 SMS: Slave mode selection
When external signals are selected the active edge of the trigger signal (TRGI) is linked to
the polarity selected on the external input (see Input Control register and Control Register
description.
000: Slave mode disabled - if CEN = ‘1’ then the prescaler is clocked directly by the internal
clock.
001: Encoder mode 1 - Counter counts up/down on TI2FP2 edge depending on TI1FP1
level.
010: Encoder mode 2 - Counter counts up/down on TI1FP1 edge depending on TI2FP2
level.
011: Encoder mode 3 - Counter counts up/down on both TI1FP1 and TI2FP2 edges
depending on the level of the other input.
100: Reset Mode - Rising edge of the selected trigger input (TRGI) reinitializes the counter
and generates an update of the registers.
101: Gated Mode - The counter clock is enabled when the trigger input (TRGI) is high. The
counter stops (but is not reset) as soon as the trigger becomes low. Both start and stop of
the counter are controlled.
110: Trigger Mode - The counter starts at a rising edge of the trigger TRGI (but it is not
reset). Only the start of the counter is controlled.
111: External Clock Mode 1 - Rising edges of the selected trigger (TRGI) clock the counter.
Note: The gated mode must not be used if TI1F_ED is selected as the trigger input
(TS=’100’). Indeed, TI1F_ED outputs 1 pulse for each transition on TI1F, whereas the
gated mode checks the level of the trigger signal.

if an internal trigger input is selected through the TS bit (TIMx_SMCR register)
Note: CC2S bits are writable only when the channel is OFF (CC2E = ’0’ in TIMx_CCER).

0: OC1Ref is not affected by the ETRF input
1: OC1Ref is cleared as soon as a High level is detected on ETRF input
Bits 6:4 OC1M: Output compare 1 mode
These bits define the behavior of the output reference signal OC1REF from which OC1 and
OC1N are derived. OC1REF is active high whereas OC1 and OC1N active level depends
on CC1P and CC1NP bits.
000: Frozen - The comparison between the output compare register TIMx_CCR1 and the

001: Set channel 1 to active level on match. OC1REF signal is forced high when the counter
TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).
010: Set channel 1 to inactive level on match. OC1REF signal is forced low when the
counter TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).
011: Toggle - OC1REF toggles when TIMx_CNT=TIMx_CCR1.
100: Force inactive level - OC1REF is forced low.
101: Force active level - OC1REF is forced high.
110: PWM mode 1 - In upcounting, channel 1 is active as long as TIMx_CNT<TIMx_CCR1
else inactive. In downcounting, channel 1 is inactive (OC1REF=‘0’) as long as
TIMx_CNT>TIMx_CCR1 else active (OC1REF=’1’).
111: PWM mode 2 - In upcounting, channel 1 is inactive as long as
TIMx_CNT<TIMx_CCR1 else active. In downcounting, channel 1 is active as long as
TIMx_CNT>TIMx_CCR1 else inactive.
Note: 1: These bits can not be modified as long as LOCK level 3 has been programmed
(LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register) and CC1S=’00’ (the channel is configured in
output).
2: In PWM mode 1 or 2, the OCREF level changes only when the result of the
comparison changes or when the output compare mode switches from “frozen” mode
to “PWM” mode.
Bit 3 OC1PE: Output compare 1 preload enable
0: Preload register on TIMx_CCR1 disabled. TIMx_CCR1 can be written at anytime, the
new value is taken in account immediately.

Bit 2 OC1FE: Output compare 1 fast enable

This bit is used to accelerate the effect of an event on the trigger in input on the CC output.
0: CC1 behaves normally depending on counter and CCR1 values even when the trigger is
ON. The minimum delay to activate CC1 output when an edge occurs on the trigger input is
5 clock cycles.
1: An active edge on the trigger input acts like a compare match on CC1 output. Then, OC
is set to the compare level independently from the result of the comparison. Delay to sample
the trigger input and to activate CC1 output is reduced to 3 clock cycles. OCFE acts only if
the channel is configured in PWM1 or PWM2 mode.
Bits 1:0 CC1S: Capture/Compare 1 selection
This bit-field defines the direction of the channel (input/output) as well as the used input.
00: CC1 channel is configured as output.

15 Basic timers (TIM6&TIM7)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This section applies to high-density STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx devices, and to
connectivity line devices only.

15.1 TIM6&TIM7 introduction

The basic timers TIM6 and TIM7 consist of a 16-bit auto-reload counter driven by a
programmable prescaler.
They may be used as generic timers for time-base generation but they are also specifically
used to drive the digital-to-analog converter (DAC). In fact, the timers are internally
connected to the DAC and are able to drive it through their trigger outputs.
The timers are completely independent, and do not share any resources.

15.3 TIM6&TIM7 functional description

15.3.1 Time-base unit

The main block of the programmable timer is a 16-bit upcounter with its related auto-reload
register. The counter clock can be divided by a prescaler.
The counter, the auto-reload register and the prescaler register can be written or read by
software. This is true even when the counter is running.
The time-base unit includes:
● Counter Register (TIMx_CNT)
● Prescaler Register (TIMx_PSC)
● Auto-Reload Register (TIMx_ARR)
The auto-reload register is preloaded. The preload register is accessed each time an
attempt is made to write or read the auto-reload register. The contents of the preload
register are transferred into the shadow register permanently or at each update event UEV,
depending on the auto-reload preload enable bit (ARPE) in the TIMx_CR1 register. The
update event is sent when the counter reaches the overflow value and if the UDIS bit equals
0 in the TIMx_CR1 register. It can also be generated by software. The generation of the
update event is described in detail for each configuration.
The counter is clocked by the prescaler output CK_CNT, which is enabled only when the
counter enable bit (CEN) in the TIMx_CR1 register is set.
Note that the actual counter enable signal CNT_EN is set 1 clock cycle after CEN.

Prescaler description
The prescaler can divide the counter clock frequency by any factor between 1 and 65536. It
is based on a 16-bit counter controlled through a 16-bit register (in the TIMx_PSC register).
It can be changed on the fly as the TIMx_PSC control register is buffered. The new
prescaler ratio is taken into account at the next update event.
Figure 146 and Figure 147 give some examples of the counter behavior when the prescaler
ratio is changed on the fly.

15.3.2 Counting mode

The counter counts from 0 to the auto-reload value (contents of the TIMx_ARR register),
then restarts from 0 and generates a counter overflow event.
An update event can be generate at each counter overflow or by setting the UG bit in the
TIMx_EGR register (by software or by using the slave mode controller).
The UEV event can be disabled by software by setting the UDIS bit in the TIMx_CR1
register. This avoids updating the shadow registers while writing new values into the preload
registers. In this way, no update event occurs until the UDIS bit has been written to 0,
however, the counter and the prescaler counter both restart from 0 (but the prescale rate
does not change). In addition, if the URS (update request selection) bit in the TIMx_CR1
register is set, setting the UG bit generates an update event UEV, but the UIF flag is not set
(so no interrupt or DMA request is sent).
When an update event occurs, all the registers are updated and the update flag (UIF bit in
the TIMx_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):
● The buffer of the prescaler is reloaded with the preload value (contents of the
TIMx_PSC register)
● The auto-reload shadow register is updated with the preload value (TIMx_ARR)
The following figures show some examples of the counter behavior for different clock
frequencies when TIMx_ARR = 0x36.

15.3.3 Clock source

The counter clock is provided by the Internal clock (CK_INT) source.
The CEN (in the TIMx_CR1 register) and UG bits (in the TIMx_EGR register) are actual
control bits and can be changed only by software (except for UG that remains cleared
automatically). As soon as the CEN bit is written to 1, the prescaler is clocked by the internal
clock CK_INT.
Figure 154 shows the behavior of the control circuit and the upcounter in normal mode,
without prescaler.

15.3.4 Debug mode

When the microcontroller enters the debug mode (Cortex-M3 core - halted), the TIMx
counter either continues to work normally or stops, depending on the DBG_TIMx_STOP
configuration bit in the DBG module. For more details, refer to Section 29.16.2: Debug
support for timers, watchdog, bxCAN and I2C.

This bit is set and cleared by software to select the UEV event sources.
0: Any of the following events generates an update interrupt or DMA request if enabled.
These events can be:
– Counter overflow/underflow
– Setting the UG bit
– Update generation through the slave mode controller

– Counter overflow/underflow
– Setting the UG bit
– Update generation through the slave mode controller
Buffered registers are then loaded with their preload values.
1: UEV disabled. The Update event is not generated, shadow registers keep their value
(ARR, PSC). However the counter and the prescaler are reinitialized if the UG bit is set or if
a hardware reset is received from the slave mode controller.

Bits 6:4 MMS: Master mode selection
These bits are used to select the information to be sent in master mode to slave timers for
synchronization (TRGO). The combination is as follows:
000: Reset - the UG bit from the TIMx_EGR register is used as a trigger output (TRGO). If
reset is generated by the trigger input (slave mode controller configured in reset mode) then
the signal on TRGO is delayed compared to the actual reset.
001: Enable - the Counter enable signal, CNT_EN, is used as a trigger output (TRGO). It is
useful to start several timers at the same time or to control a window in which a slave timer
is enabled. The Counter Enable signal is generated by a logic OR between CEN control bit
and the trigger input when configured in gated mode.
When the Counter Enable signal is controlled by the trigger input, there is a delay on TRGO,
except if the master/slave mode is selected (see the MSM bit description in the TIMx_SMCR
register).
010: Update - The update event is selected as a trigger output (TRGO). For instance a
master timer can then be used as a prescaler for a slave timer.

16 Real-time clock (RTC)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.

16.1 RTC introduction

The real-time clock is an independent timer. The RTC provides a set of continuously running
counters which can be used, with suitable software, to provide a clock-calendar function.
The counter values can be written to set the current time/date of the system.
The RTC core and clock configuration (RCC_BDCR register) are in the Backup domain,
which means that RTC setting and time are kept after reset or wakeup from Standby mode.
After reset, access to the Backup registers and RTC is disabled and the Backup domain
(BKP) is protected against possible parasitic write access. To enable access to the Backup
registers and the RTC, proceed as follows:
● enable the power and backup interface clocks by setting the PWREN and BKPEN bits
in the RCC_APB1ENR register
● set the DBP bit the Power Control Register (PWR_CR) to enable access to the Backup
registers and RTC.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 387/995

Real-time clock (RTC) RM0008

16.2 RTC main features

● Programmable prescaler: division factor up to 220
● 32-bit programmable counter for long-term measurement
● Two separate clocks: PCLK1 for the APB1 interface and RTC clock (must be at least
four times slower than the PCLK1 clock)
● The RTC clock source could be any of the following three:
– HSE clock divided by 128
– LSE oscillator clock
– LSI oscillator clock (refer to Section 6.2.8: RTC clock for details)
● Two separate reset types:
– The APB1 interface is reset by system reset
– The RTC Core (Prescaler, Alarm, Counter and Divider) is reset only by a Backup
domain reset (see Section 6.1.3: Backup domain reset on page 75).
● Three dedicated maskable interrupt lines:
– Alarm interrupt, for generating a software programmable alarm interrupt.
– Seconds interrupt, for generating a periodic interrupt signal with a programmable
period length (up to 1 second).
– Overflow interrupt, to detect when the internal programmable counter rolls over to
zero.

16.3 RTC functional description

16.3.1 Overview
The RTC consists of two main units (see Figure 155 on page 389). The first one (APB1
Interface) is used to interface with the APB1 bus. This unit also contains a set of 16-bit
registers accessible from the APB1 bus in read or write mode (for more information refer to
Section 16.4: RTC registers on page 392). The APB1 interface is clocked by the APB1 bus
clock in order to interface with the APB1 bus.
The other unit (RTC Core) consists of a chain of programmable counters made of two main
blocks. The first block is the RTC prescaler block, which generates the RTC time base
TR_CLK that can be programmed to have a period of up to 1 second. It includes a 20-bit
programmable divider (RTC Prescaler). Every TR_CLK period, the RTC generates an
interrupt (Second Interrupt) if it is enabled in the RTC_CR register. The second block is a
32-bit programmable counter that can be initialized to the current system time. The system
time is incremented at the TR_CLK rate and compared with a programmable date (stored in
the RTC_ALR register) in order to generate an alarm interrupt, if enabled in the RTC_CR
control register.

16.3.2 Resetting RTC registers

All system registers are asynchronously reset by a System Reset or Power Reset, except for
RTC_PRL, RTC_ALR, RTC_CNT, and RTC_DIV.
The RTC_PRL, RTC_ALR, RTC_CNT, and RTC_DIV registers are reset only by a Backup
Domain reset. Refer to Section 6.1.3 on page 75.

16.3.3 Reading RTC registers

The RTC core is completely independent from the RTC APB1 interface.
Software accesses the RTC prescaler, counter and alarm values through the APB1 interface
but the associated readable registers are internally updated at each rising edge of the RTC
clock resynchronized by the RTC APB1 clock. This is also true for the RTC flags.
This means that the first read to the RTC APB1 registers may be corrupted (generally read
as 0) if the APB1 interface has previously been disabled and the read occurs immediately
after the APB1 interface is enabled but before the first internal update of the registers. This
can occur if:
● A system reset or power reset has occurred
● The MCU has just woken up from Standby mode (see Section 4.3: Low-power modes)
● The MCU has just woken up from Stop mode (see Section 4.3: Low-power modes)
In all the above cases, the RTC core has been kept running while the APB1 interface was
disabled (reset, not clocked or unpowered).
Consequently when reading the RTC registers, after having disabled the RTC APB1
interface, the software must first wait for the RSF bit (Register Synchronized Flag) in the
RTC_CRL register to be set by hardware.
Note that the RTC APB1 interface is not affected by WFI and WFE low-power modes.

16.3.4 Configuring RTC registers

To write in the RTC_PRL, RTC_CNT, RTC_ALR registers, the peripheral must enter
Configuration Mode. This is done by setting the CNF bit in the RTC_CRL register.
In addition, writing to any RTC register is only enabled if the previous write operation is
finished. To enable the software to detect this situation, the RTOFF status bit is provided in
the RTC_CR register to indicate that an update of the registers is in progress. A new value
can be written to the RTC registers only when the RTOFF status bit value is ’1’.

Configuration procedure:
1. Poll RTOFF, wait until its value goes to ‘1’
2. Set the CNF bit to enter configuration mode
3. Write to one or more RTC registers
4. Clear the CNF bit to exit configuration mode
5. Poll RTOFF, wait until its value goes to ‘1’ to check the end of the write operation.
The write operation only executes when the CNF bit is cleared; it takes at least three
RTCCLK cycles to complete.

16.3.5 RTC flag assertion

The RTC Second flag (SECF) is asserted on each RTC Core clock cycle before the update
of the RTC Counter.
The RTC Overflow flag (OWF) is asserted on the last RTC Core clock cycle before the
counter reaches 0x0000.
The RTC_Alarm and RTC Alarm flag (ALRF) (see Figure 156) are asserted on the last RTC
Core clock cycle before the counter reaches the RTC Alarm value stored in the Alarm
register increased by one (RTC_ALR + 1). The write operation in the RTC Alarm and RTC
Second flag must be synchronized by using one of the following sequences:
● Use the RTC Alarm interrupt and inside the RTC interrupt routine, the RTC Alarm
and/or RTC Counter registers are updated.
● Wait for SECF bit to be set in the RTC Control register. Update the RTC Alarm and/or
the RTC Counter register.

These bits are used to mask interrupt requests. Note that at reset all interrupts are disabled,
so it is possible to write to the RTC registers to ensure that no interrupt requests are pending
after initialization. It is not possible to write to the RTC_CRH register when the peripheral is
completing a previous write operation (flagged by RTOFF=0, see Section 16.3.4 on page

Bit 5 RTOFF: RTC operation OFF
With this bit the RTC reports the status of the last write operation performed on its registers,
indicating if it has been completed or not. If its value is ‘0’ then it is not possible to write to
any of the RTC registers. This bit is read only.
0: Last write operation on RTC registers is still ongoing.
1: Last write operation on RTC registers terminated.
Bit 4 CNF: Configuration flag
This bit must be set by software to enter in configuration mode so as to allow new values to
be written in the RTC_CNT, RTC_ALR or RTC_PRL registers. The write operation is only
executed when the CNF bit is reset by software after has been set.
0: Exit configuration mode (start update of RTC registers).
1: Enter configuration mode.
Bit 3 RSF: Registers synchronized flag
This bit is set by hardware at each time the RTC_CNT and RTC_DIV registers are updated
and cleared by software. Before any read operation after an APB1 reset or an APB1 clock
stop, this bit must be cleared by software, and the user application must wait until it is set to
be sure that the RTC_CNT, RTC_ALR or RTC_PRL registers are synchronized.
0: Registers not yet synchronized.
1: Registers synchronized.
Bit 2 OWF: Overflow flag
This bit is set by hardware when the 32-bit programmable counter overflows. An interrupt is
generated if OWIE=1 in the RTC_CRH register. It can be cleared only by software. Writing
‘1’ has no effect.
0: Overflow not detected
1: 32-bit programmable counter overflow occurred.
Bit 1 ALRF: Alarm flag
This bit is set by hardware when the 32-bit programmable counter reaches the threshold set
in the RTC_ALR register. An interrupt is generated if ALRIE=1 in the RTC_CRH register. It
can be cleared only by software. Writing ‘1’ has no effect.
0: Alarm not detected
1: Alarm detected
Bit 0 SECF: Second flag
This bit is set by hardware when the 32-bit programmable prescaler overflows, thus
incrementing the RTC counter. Hence this flag provides a periodic signal with a period
corresponding to the resolution programmed for the RTC counter (usually one second). An
interrupt is generated if SECIE=1 in the RTC_CRH register. It can be cleared only by
software. Writing ‘1’ has no effect.

The functions of the RTC are controlled by this control register. It is not possible to write to
the RTC_CR register while the peripheral is completing a previous write operation (flagged
by RTOFF=0, see Section 16.3.4 on page 390).
Note: 1 Any flag remains pending until the appropriate RTC_CR request bit is reset by software,
indicating that the interrupt request has been granted.
2 At reset the interrupts are disabled, no interrupt requests are pending and it is possible to
write to the RTC registers.
3 The OWF, ALRF, SECF and RSF bits are not updated when the APB1 clock is not running.
4 The OWF, ALRF, SECF and RSF bits can only be set by hardware and only cleared by
software.
5 If ALRF = 1 and ALRIE = 1, the RTC global interrupt is enabled. If EXTI Line 17 is also
enabled through the EXTI Controller, both the RTC global interrupt and the RTC Alarm
interrupt are enabled.
6 If ALRF = 1, the RTC Alarm interrupt is enabled if EXTI Line 17 is enabled through the EXTI
Controller in interrupt mode. When the EXTI Line 17 is enabled in event mode, a pulse is
generated on this line (no RTC Alarm interrupt generation).

16.4.3 RTC prescaler load register (RTC_PRLH / RTC_PRLL)

The Prescaler Load registers keep the period counting value of the RTC prescaler. They are
write-protected by the RTOFF bit in the RTC_CR register, and a write operation is allowed if
the RTOFF value is ‘1’.

16.4.4 RTC prescaler divider register (RTC_DIVH / RTC_DIVL)

During each period of TR_CLK, the counter inside the RTC prescaler is reloaded with the
value stored in the RTC_PRL register. To get an accurate time measurement it is possible to
read the current value of the prescaler counter, stored in the RTC_DIV register, without
stopping it. This register is read-only and it is reloaded by hardware after any change in the

16.4.5 RTC counter register (RTC_CNTH / RTC_CNTL)

The RTC core has one 32-bit programmable counter, accessed through two 16-bit registers;
the count rate is based on the TR_CLK time reference, generated by the prescaler.
RTC_CNT registers keep the counting value of this counter. They are write-protected by bit
RTOFF in the RTC_CR register, and a write operation is allowed if the RTOFF value is ‘1’. A
write operation on the upper (RTC_CNTH) or lower (RTC_CNTL) registers directly loads the
corresponding programmable counter and reloads the RTC Prescaler. When reading, the
current value in the counter (system date) is returned.

RM0008 Independent watchdog (IWDG)

17 Independent watchdog (IWDG)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.

17.1 IWDG introduction

The STM32F10xxx has two embedded watchdog peripherals which offer a combination of
high safety level, timing accuracy and flexibility of use. Both watchdog peripherals
(Independent and Window) serve to detect and resolve malfunctions due to software failure,
and to trigger system reset or an interrupt (window watchdog only) when the counter
reaches a given timeout value.
The independent watchdog (IWDG) is clocked by its own dedicated low-speed clock (LSI)
and thus stays active even if the main clock fails. The window watchdog (WWDG) clock is
prescaled from the APB1 clock and has a configurable time-window that can be
programmed to detect abnormally late or early application behavior.
The IWDG is best suited to applications which require the watchdog to run as a totally
independent process outside the main application, but have lower timing accuracy
constraints. The WWDG is best suited to applications which require the watchdog to react
within an accurate timing window. For further information on the window watchdog, refer to
Section 18 on page 404.

17.2 IWDG main features

● Free-running downcounter
● clocked from an independent RC oscillator (can operate in Standby and Stop modes)
● Reset (if watchdog activated) when the downcounter value of 0x000 is reached

17.3 IWDG functional description

Figure 158 shows the functional blocks of the independent watchdog module.
When the independent watchdog is started by writing the value 0xCCCC in the Key register
(IWDG_KR), the counter starts counting down from the reset value of 0xFFF. When it
reaches the end of count value (0x000) a reset signal is generated (IWDG reset).
Whenever the key value 0xAAAA is written in the IWDG_KR register, the IWDG_RLR value
is reloaded in the counter and the watchdog reset is prevented.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 399/995

Independent watchdog (IWDG) RM0008

17.3.1 Hardware watchdog

If the “Hardware watchdog” feature is enabled through the device option bits, the watchdog
is automatically enabled at power-on, and will generate a reset unless the Key register is
written by the software before the counter reaches end of count.

17.3.2 Register access protection

Write access to the IWDG_PR and IWDG_RLR registers is protected. To modify them, you
must first write the code 0x5555 in the IWDG_KR register. A write access to this register
with a different value will break the sequence and register access will be protected again.
This implies that it is the case of the reload operation (writing 0xAAAA).
A status register is available to indicate that an update of the prescaler or the down-counter
reload value is on going.

17.3.3 Debug mode

When the microcontroller enters debug mode (Cortex-M3 core halted), the IWDG counter
either continues to work normally or stops, depending on DBG_IWDG_STOP configuration
bit in DBG module. For more details, refer to Section 29.16.2: Debug support for timers,
watchdog, bxCAN and I2C.

Moreover, given an exact RC oscillator frequency, the exact timings still depend on the phasing of the APB interface clock
versus the LSI clock so that there is always a full RC period of uncertainty.

18.1 WWDG introduction

The window watchdog is used to detect the occurrence of a software fault, usually
generated by external interference or by unforeseen logical conditions, which causes the
application program to abandon its normal sequence. The watchdog circuit generates an
MCU reset on expiry of a programmed time period, unless the program refreshes the
contents of the downcounter before the T6 bit becomes cleared. An MCU reset is also
generated if the 7-bit downcounter value (in the control register) is refreshed before the
downcounter has reached the window register value. This implies that the counter must be
refreshed in a limited window.

18.2 WWDG main features

● Programmable free-running downcounter
● Conditional reset
– Reset (if watchdog activated) when the downcounter value becomes less than 40h
– Reset (if watchdog activated) if the downcounter is reloaded outside the window
(see Figure 160)
● Early wakeup interrupt (EWI): triggered (if enabled and the watchdog activated) when
the downcounter is equal to 40h. Can be used to reload the counter and prevent
WWDG reset

18.3 WWDG functional description

If the watchdog is activated (the WDGA bit is set in the WWDG_CR register) and when the
7-bit downcounter (T[6:0] bits) rolls over from 0x40 to 0x3F (T6 becomes cleared), it initiates
a reset. If the software reloads the counter while the counter is greater than the value stored
in the window register, then a reset is generated.

The application program must write in the WWDG_CR register at regular intervals during
normal operation to prevent an MCU reset. This operation must occur only when the counter
value is lower than the window register value. The value to be stored in the WWDG_CR
register must be between 0xFF and 0xC0:
● Enabling the watchdog:
The watchdog is always disabled after a reset. It is enabled by setting the WDGA bit in
the WWDG_CR register, then it cannot be disabled again except by a reset.
● Controlling the downcounter:
This downcounter is free-running: It counts down even if the watchdog is disabled.
When the watchdog is enabled, the T6 bit must be set to prevent generating an
immediate reset.
The T[5:0] bits contain the number of increments which represents the time delay
before the watchdog produces a reset. The timing varies between a minimum and a
maximum value due to the unknown status of the prescaler when writing to the
WWDG_CR register (see Figure 160).
The Configuration register (WWDG_CFR) contains the high limit of the window: To
prevent a reset, the downcounter must be reloaded when its value is lower than the
window register value and greater than 0x3F. Figure 160 describes the window
watchdog process.
Another way to reload the counter is to use the early wakeup interrupt (EWI). This
interrupt is enabled by setting the EWI bit in the WWDG_CFR register. When the
downcounter reaches the value 40h, this interrupt is generated and the corresponding
interrupt service routine (ISR) can be used to reload the counter to prevent WWDG
reset.
This interrupt is cleared by writing '0' to the EWIF bit in the WWDG_SR register.
Note: The T6 bit can be used to generate a software reset (the WDGA bit is set and the T6 bit is
cleared).

18.4 How to program the watchdog timeout

Figure 160 shows the linear relationship between the 6-bit value to be loaded in the
watchdog counter (CNT) and the resulting timeout duration in milliseconds. This can be
used for a quick calculation without taking the timing variations into account. If more
precision is needed, use the formulae in Figure 160.

Warning: When writing to the WWDG_CR register, always write 1 in the

T6 bit to avoid generating an immediate reset.

The formula to calculate the timeout value is given by:

where:

1 227 µs 14.56 ms
2 455 µs 29.12 ms
3 910 µs 58.25 ms

18.5 Debug mode

When the microcontroller enters debug mode (Cortex-M3 core halted), the WWDG counter
either continues to work normally or stops, depending on DBG_WWDG_STOP configuration
bit in DBG module. For more details, refer to Section 29.16.2: Debug support for timers,
watchdog, bxCAN and I2C.

RM0008 Flexible static memory controller (FSMC)

19 Flexible static memory controller (FSMC)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where
the Flash memory density ranges between 32 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This section applies to high-density devices only.

19.1 FSMC main features

The FSMC block is able to interface with synchronous and asynchronous memories and 16-
bit PC memory cards. Its main purpose is to:
● Translate the AHB transactions into the appropriate external device protocol
● Meet the access timing requirements of the external devices
All external memories share the addresses, data and control signals with the controller.
Each external device is accessed by means of a unique chip select. The FSMC performs
only one access at a time to an external device.
The FSMC has the following main features:
● Interfaces with static memory-mapped devices including:
– Static random access memory (SRAM)
– Read-only memory (ROM)
– NOR Flash memory
– PSRAM (4 memory banks)
● Two banks of NAND Flash with ECC hardware that checks up to 8 Kbytes of data
● 16-bit PC Card compatible devices
● Supports burst mode access to synchronous devices (NOR Flash and PSRAM)
● 8- or 16-bit wide databus
● Independent chip select control for each memory bank
● Independent configuration for each memory bank
● Programmable timings to support a wide range of devices, in particular:
– Programmable wait states (up to 15)
– Programmable bus turnaround cycles (up to 15)
– Programmable output enable and write enable delays (up to 15)
– Independent read and write timings and protocol, so as to support the widest
variety of memories and timings
● Write enable and byte lane select outputs for use with PSRAM and SRAM devices
● Translation of 32-bit wide AHB transactions into consecutive 16-bit or 8-bit accesses to
external 16-bit or 8-bit devices

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 409/995

Flexible static memory controller (FSMC) RM0008

● Write FIFO, 16 words long, each word 32 bits wide. This makes it possible to write to
slow memories and free the AHB quickly for other transactions. If a new transaction is
started to the FSMC, first the FIFO is drained
The FSMC registers that define the external device type and associated characteristics are
usually set at boot time and do not change until the next reset or power-up. However, it is
possible to change the settings at any time.

19.2 Block diagram

The FSMC consists of four main blocks:
● The AHB interface (including the FSMC configuration registers)
● The NOR Flash/PSRAM controller
● The NAND Flash/PC Card controller
● The external device interface
The block diagram is shown in Figure 19.3.

19.3 AHB interface

The AHB slave interface enables internal CPUs and other bus master peripherals to access
the external static memories.
AHB transactions are translated into the external device protocol. In particular, if the
selected external memory is 16 or 8 bits wide, 32-bit wide transactions on the AHB are split
into consecutive 16- or 8-bit accesses.
The AHB clock (HCLK) is the reference clock for the FSMC.

19.3.1 Supported memories and transactions

General transaction rules
The requested AHB transaction data size can be 8-, 16- or 32-bit wide whereas the
accessed external device has a fixed data width. This may lead to inconsistent transfers.
Therefore, some simple transaction rules must be followed:
● AHB transaction size and memory data size are equal
There is no issue in this case.
● AHB transaction size is greater than the memory size
In this case, the FSMC splits the AHB transaction into smaller consecutive memory
accesses in order to meet the external data width.
● AHB transaction size is smaller than the memory size
Asynchronous transfers may or not be consistent depending on the type of external
device.
– Asynchronous accesses to devices that have the byte select feature (SRAM,
ROM, PSRAM).
In this case, the FSMC allows read/write transactions and accesses the right data
through its byte lanes BL[1:0]
– Asynchronous accesses to devices that do not have the byte select feature (NOR
and NAND Flash 16-bit).

410/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Flexible static memory controller (FSMC)

This situation occurs when a byte access is requested to a 16-bit wide Flash
memory. Clearly, the device cannot be accessed in byte mode (only 16-bit words
can be read from/written to the Flash memory) therefore:
a) Write transactions are not allowed
b) Read transactions are allowed (the controller reads the entire 16-bit memory word
and uses the needed byte only).

Configuration registers
The FSMC can be configured using a register set. See Section 19.5.6, for a detailed
description of the NOR Flash/PSRAM controller registers. See Section 19.6.7, for a detailed
description of the NAND Flash/PC Card registers.

19.4 External device address mapping

From the FSMC point of view, the external memory is divided into 4 fixed-size banks of 256
Mbytes each (Refer to Figure 161):
● Bank 1 used to address up to 4 NOR Flash or PSRAM memory devices. This bank is
split into 4 NOR/PSRAM regions with 4 dedicated Chip Select.
● Banks 2 and 3 used to address NAND Flash devices (1 device per bank)
● Bank 4 used to address a PC Card device
For each bank the type of memory to be used is user-defined in the Configuration register.

19.4.1 NOR/PSRAM address mapping

HADDR[27:26] bits are used to select one of the four memory banks as shown in Table 84.

Table 84. NOR/PSRAM bank selection

HADDR[27:26](1) Selected bank

00 Bank 1 NOR/PSRAM 1
01 Bank 1 NOR/PSRAM 2
10 Bank 1 NOR/PSRAM 3
11 Bank 1 NOR/PSRAM 4
1. HADDR are internal AHB address lines that are translated to external memory.

HADDR[25:0] contain the external memory address. Since HADDR is a byte address
whereas the memory is addressed in words, the address actually issued to the memory
varies according to the memory data width, as shown in the following table.

Table 85. External memory address

Memory width(1) Data address issued to the memory Maximum memory capacity (bits)

8-bit HADDR[25:0] 64 Mbytes x 8 = 512 Mbit

16-bit HADDR[25:1] >> 1 64 Mbytes/2 x 16 = 512 Mbit
1. In case of a 16-bit external memory width, the FSMC will internally use HADDR[25:1] to generate the
address for external memory FSMC_A[24:0].
Whatever the external memory width (16-bit or 8-bit), FSMC_A[0] should be connected to external memory
address A[0].

Wrap support for NOR Flash/PSRAM

Each NOR Flash/PSRAM memory bank can be configured to support wrap accesses.
On the memory side, two cases must be considered depending on the access mode:
asynchronous or synchronous.
● Asynchronous mode: in this case, wrap accesses are fully supported as long as the
address is supplied for every single access.
● Synchronous mode: in this case, the FSMC issues the address only once, and then
the burst transfer is sequenced by the FSMC clock CLK.
Some NOR memories support linear burst with wrap-around accesses, in which a fixed
number of words is read from consecutive addresses modulo N (N is typically 8 or 16
and can be programmed through the NOR Flash configuration register). In this case, it
is possible to set the memory wrap mode identical to the AHB master wrap mode.
Otherwise, in the case when the memory wrap mode and the AHB master wrap mode
cannot be set identically, wrapping should be disabled (through the appropriate bit in the
FSMC configuration register) and the wrap transaction split into two consecutive linear
transactions.

19.4.2 NAND/PC Card address mapping

In this case, three banks are available, each of them divided into memory spaces as
indicated in Table 86.

For NAND Flash memory, the common and attribute memory spaces are subdivided into
three sections (see in Table 87 below) located in the lower 256 Kbytes:
● Data section (first 64 Kbytes in the common/attribute memory space)
● Command section (second 64 Kbytes in the common / attribute memory space)
● Address section (next 128 Kbytes in the common / attribute memory space)

Address section 1X 0x020000-0x03FFFF

Command section 01 0x010000-0x01FFFF
Data section 00 0x000000-0x0FFFF

The application software uses the 3 sections to access the NAND Flash memory:
● To send a command to NAND Flash memory: the software must write the command
value to any memory location in the command section.
● To specify the NAND Flash address that must be read or written: the software must
write the address value to any memory location in the address section. Since an
address can be 4 or 5 bytes long (depending on the actual memory size), several
consecutive writes to the address section are needed to specify the full address.
● To read or write data: the software reads or writes the data value from or to any
memory location in the data section.
Since the NAND Flash memory automatically increments addresses, there is no need to
increment the address of the data section to access consecutive memory locations.

19.5 NOR Flash/PSRAM controller

The FSMC generates the appropriate signal timings to drive the following types of
memories:
● Asynchronous SRAM and ROM
– 8-bit
– 16-bit
– 32-bit
● PSRAM (Cellular RAM)
– Asynchronous mode
– Burst mode
● NOR Flash
– Asynchronous mode or burst mode
– Multiplexed or nonmultiplexed
The FSMC outputs a unique chip select signal NE[4:1] per bank. All the other signals
(addresses, data and control) are shared.
For synchronous accesses, the FSMC issues the clock (CLK) to the selected external
device. This clock is a submultiple of the HCLK clock. The size of each bank is fixed and
equal to 64 Mbytes.
Each bank is configured by means of dedicated registers (see Section 19.6.7).
The programmable memory parameters include access timings (see Table 88) and support
for wrap and wait management (for PSRAM and NOR Flash accessed in burst mode).

● All controller output signals change on the rising edge of the internal clock (HCLK)
● In synchronous write mode (PSRAM devices), the output data changes on the falling
edge of the memory clock (CLK)

19.5.4 NOR Flash/PSRAM controller timing diagrams

Asynchronous static memories (NOR Flash, SRAM)
● Signals are synchronized by the internal clock HCLK. This clock is not issued to the
memory
● The FSMC always samples the data before de-asserting the chip select signal NE. This
guarantees that the memory data-hold timing constraint is met (chip enable high to
data transition, usually 0 ns min.)
● When extended mode is set, it is possible to mix modes A, B, C and D in read and write
(it is for instance possible to read in mode A and write in mode B).

19.5.5 Synchronous burst transactions

The memory clock, CLK, is a submultiple of HCLK according to the value of parameter
CLKDIV.
NOR Flash memories specify a minimum time from NADV assertion to CLK high. To meet
this constraint, the FSMC does not issue the clock to the memory during the first internal
clock cycle of the synchronous access (before NADV assertion). This guarantees that the
rising edge of the memory clock occurs in the middle of the NADV low pulse.

430/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Flexible static memory controller (FSMC)

Data latency versus NOR Flash latency

The data latency is the number of cycles to wait before sampling the data. The DATLAT
value must be consistent with the latency value specified in the NOR Flash configuration
register. The FSMC does not include the clock cycle when NADV is low in the data latency
count.
Caution: Some NOR Flash memories include the NADV Low cycle in the data latency count, so the
exact relation between the NOR Flash latency and the FMSC DATLAT parameter can be
either of:
● NOR Flash latency = DATLAT + 2
● NOR Flash latency = DATLAT + 3
Some recent memories assert NWAIT during the latency phase. In such cases DATLAT can
be set to its minimum value. As a result, the FSMC samples the data and waits long enough
to evaluate if the data are valid. Thus the FSMC detects when the memory exits latency and
real data are taken.
Other memories do not assert NWAIT during latency. In this case the latency must be set
correctly for both the FSMC and the memory, otherwise invalid data are mistaken for good
data, or valid data are lost in the initial phase of the memory access.

Single-burst transfer
When the selected bank is configured in synchronous burst mode, if an AHB single-burst
transaction is requested, the FSMC performs a burst transaction of length 1 (if the AHB
transfer is 16-bit), or length 2 (if the AHB transfer is 32-bit) and de-assert the chip select
signal when the last data is strobed.
Clearly, such a transfer is not the most efficient in terms of cycles (compared to an
asynchronous read). Nevertheless, a random asynchronous access would first require to re-
program the memory access mode, which would altogether last longer.

Wait management
For synchronous burst NOR Flash, NWAIT is evaluated after the programmed latency
period, (DATALAT+1) CLK clock cycles.
If NWAIT is sensed active (low level when WAITPOL = 0, high level when WAITPOL = 1),
wait states are inserted until NWAIT is sensed inactive (high level when WAITPOL = 0, low
level when WAITPOL = 1).
When NWAIT is inactive, the data is considered valid either immediately (bit WAITCFG = 1)
or on the next clock edge (bit WAITCFG = 0).
During wait-state insertion via the NWAIT signal, the controller continues to send clock
pulses to the memory, keeping the chip select and output enable signals valid, and does not
consider the data valid.
There are two timing configurations for the NOR Flash NWAIT signal in burst mode:
● Flash memory asserts the NWAIT signal one data cycle before the wait state (default
after reset)
● Flash memory asserts the NWAIT signal during the wait state
These two NOR Flash wait state configurations are supported by the FSMC, individually for
each chip select, thanks to the WAITCFG bit in the FSMC_BCRx registers (x = 0..3).

1: Write operations are performed in synchronous mode.
Bit 15 Reserved.
Bit 14 EXTMOD: Extended mode enable.

timings for read and write.
0: values inside FSMC_BWTR register are not taken into account (default after reset)
1: values inside FSMC_BWTR register are taken into account
Bit 13 WAITEN: Wait enable bit.
For Flash memory access in burst mode, this bit enables/disables wait-state insertion via the
NWAIT signal:
0: NWAIT signal is disabled (its level not taken into account, no wait state inserted after the
programmed Flash latency period)
1: NWAIT signal is enabled (its level is taken into account after the programmed Flash latency
period to insert wait states if asserted) (default after reset)
Bit 12 WREN: Write enable bit.
This bit indicates whether write operations are enabled/disabled in the bank by the FSMC:
0: Write operations are disabled in the bank by the FSMC, an AHB error is reported,
1: Write operations are enabled for the bank by the FSMC (default after reset).
Bit 11 WAITCFG: Wait timing configuration.
For memory access in burst mode, the NWAIT signal indicates whether the data from the memory
are valid or if a wait state must be inserted. This configuration bit determines if NWAIT is asserted
by the memory one clock cycle before the wait state or during the wait state:
0: NWAIT signal is active one data cycle before wait state (default after reset),
1: NWAIT signal is active during wait state (not for Cellular RAM).

Note: PSRAMs (CRAMs) have a variable latency due to internal refresh. Therefore these
memories issue the NWAIT signal during the whole latency phase to prolong the latency as
needed.
With PSRAMs (CRAMs) the filed DATLAT must be set to 0, so that the FSMC exits its
latency phase soon and starts sampling NWAIT from memory, then starts to read or write
when the memory is ready.
This method can be used also with the latest generation of synchronous Flash memories
that issue the NWAIT signal, unlike older Flash memories (check the datasheet of the
specific Flash memory being used).

19.6.3 Timing diagrams for NAND, ATA and PC Card

Each PC Card/CompactFlash and NAND Flash memory bank is managed through a set of
registers:
● Control register: FSMC_PCRx
● Interrupt status register: FSMC_SRx
● ECC register: FSMC_ECCRx
● Timing register for Common memory space: FSMC_PMEMx
● Timing register for Attribute memory space: FSMC_PATTx
● Timing register for I/O space: FSMC_PIOx
Each timing configuration register contains three parameters used to define number of
HCLK cycles for the three phases of any PC Card/CompactFlash or NAND Flash access,
plus one parameter that defines the timing for starting driving the databus in the case of a
write. Figure 175 shows the timing parameter definitions for common memory accesses,
knowing that Attribute and I/O (only for PC Card) memory space access timings are similar.

19.6.4 NAND Flash operations

The command latch enable (CLE) and address latch enable (ALE) signals of the NAND
Flash device are driven by some address signals of the FSMC controller. This means that to
send a command or an address to the NAND Flash memory, the CPU has to perform a write
to a certain address in its memory space.
A typical page read operation from the NAND Flash device is as follows:
1. Program and enable the corresponding memory bank by configuring the FSMC_PCRx
and FSMC_PMEMx (and for some devices, FSMC_PATTx, see Section 19.6.5: NAND
Flash pre-wait functionality on page 446) registers according to the characteristics of
the NAND Flash (PWID bits for the databus width of the NAND Flash, PTYP = 1,
PWAITEN = 1, PBKEN = 1, see section Common memory space timing register 2..4
(FSMC_PMEM2..4) on page 450 for timing configuration).
2. The CPU performs a byte write in the common memory space, with data byte equal to
one Flash command byte (for example 0x00 for Samsung NAND Flash devices). The
CLE input of the NAND Flash is active during the write strobe (low pulse on NWE), thus
the written byte is interpreted as a command by the NAND Flash. Once the command
is latched by the NAND Flash device, it does not need to be written for the following
page read operations.
3. The CPU can send the start address (STARTAD) for a read operation by writing four
bytes (or three for smaller capacity devices), STARTAD[7:0], then STARTAD[16:9],
STARTAD[24:17] and finally STARTAD[25] for 64 Mb x 8 bit NAND Flash) in the
common memory or attribute space. The ALE input of the NAND Flash device is active
during the write strobe (low pulse on NWE), thus the written bytes are interpreted as

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 445/995

Flexible static memory controller (FSMC) RM0008

the start address for read operations. Using the attribute memory space makes it
possible to use a different timing configuration of the FSMC, which can be used to
implement the prewait functionality needed by some NAND Flash memories (see
details in Section 19.6.5: NAND Flash pre-wait functionality on page 446).
4. The controller waits for the NAND Flash to be ready (R/NB signal high) to become
active, before starting a new access (to same or another memory bank). While waiting,
the controller maintains the NCE signal active (low).
5. The CPU can then perform byte read operations in the common memory space to read
the NAND Flash page (data field + Spare field) byte by byte.
6. The next NAND Flash page can be read without any CPU command or address write
operation, in three different ways:
– by simply performing the operation described in step 5
– a new random address can be accessed by restarting the operation at step 3
– a new command can be sent to the NAND Flash device by restarting at step 2

19.6.5 NAND Flash pre-wait functionality

Some NAND Flash devices require that, after writing the last part of the address, the
controller wait for the R/NB signal to go low as shown in Figure 176.

4. CPU wrote byte A24~A17 at address 0x7002 0000.
5. CPU wrote byte A25 at address 0x7802 0000: FSMC performs a write access using FSMC_PATT2 timing
definition, where ATTHOLD  7 (providing that (7+1) × HCLK = 112 ns > tWB max). This guarantees that
NCE remains low until R/NB goes low and high again (only requested for NAND Flash memories where
NCE is not don’t care).

446/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Flexible static memory controller (FSMC)

When this functionality is needed, it can be guaranteed by programming the MEMHOLD

value to meet the tWB timing, however any CPU read or write access to the NAND Flash
then has the hold delay of (MEMHOLD + 1) HCLK cycles inserted from the rising edge of
the NWE signal to the next access.
To overcome this timing constraint, the attribute memory space can be used by
programming its timing register with an ATTHOLD value that meets the tWB timing, and
leaving the MEMHOLD value at its minimum. Then, the CPU must use the common memory
space for all NAND Flash read and write accesses, except when writing the last address
byte to the NAND Flash device, where the CPU must write to the attribute memory space.

19.6.6 Error correction code computation ECC (NAND Flash)

The FSMC PC-Card controller includes two error correction code computation hardware
blocks, one per memory bank. They are used to reduce the host CPU workload when
processing the error correction code by software in the system.
These two registers are identical and associated with bank 2 and bank 3, respectively. As a
consequence, no hardware ECC computation is available for memories connected to bank
4.
The error correction code (ECC) algorithm implemented in the FSMC can perform 1-bit error
correction and 2-bit error detection per 256, 512, 1 024, 2 048, 4 096 or 8 192 bytes read
from or written to NAND Flash.
The ECC modules monitor the NAND Flash databus and read/write signals (NCE and NWE)
each time the NAND Flash memory bank is active.
The functional operations are:
● When access to NAND Flash is made to bank 2 or bank 3, the data present on the
D[15:0] bus is latched and used for ECC computation.
● When access to NAND Flash occurs at any other address, the ECC logic is idle, and
does not perform any operation. Thus, write operations for defining commands or
addresses to NAND Flash are not taken into account for ECC computation.
Once the desired number of bytes has been read from/written to the NAND Flash by the
host CPU, the FSMC_ECCR2/3 registers must be read in order to retrieve the computed
value. Once read, they should be cleared by resetting the ECCEN bit to zero. To compute a
new data block, the ECCEN bit must be set to one in the FSMC_PCR2/3 registers.

Address offset: 0xA000 0000 + 0x44 + 0x20 * (x-1), x = 2..4
Reset value: 0x0000 0040
This register contains information about FIFO status and interrupt. The FSMC has a FIFO
that is used when writing to memories to store up to16 words of data from the AHB.
This is used to quickly write to the AHB and free it for transactions to peripherals other than
the FSMC, while the FSMC is draining its FIFO into the memory. This register has one of its
bits that indicates the status of the FIFO, for ECC purposes.
The ECC is calculated while the data are written to the memory, so in order to read the
correct ECC the software must wait until the FIFO is empty.

ECC result registers 2/3 (FSMC_ECCR2/3)

Address offset: 0xA000 0000 + 0x54 + 0x20 * (x – 1), x = 2 or 3
Reset value: 0x0000 0000
These registers contain the current error correction code value computed by the ECC
computation modules of the FSMC controller (one module per NAND Flash memory bank).
When the CPU reads the data from a NAND Flash memory page at the correct address
(refer to Section 19.6.6: Error correction code computation ECC (NAND Flash)), the data
read from or written to the NAND Flash are processed automatically by ECC computation
module. At the end of X bytes read (according to the ECCPS field in the FSMC_PCRx
registers), the CPU must read the computed ECC value from the FSMC_ECCx registers,
and then verify whether these computed parity data are the same as the parity value
recorded in the spare area, to determine whether a page is valid, and, to correct it if
applicable. The FSMC_ECCRx registers should be cleared after being read by setting the
ECCEN bit to zero. For computing a new data block, the ECCEN bit must be set to one.

20 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This section applies to high-density performance line devices only.

20.1 SDIO main features

The SD/SDIO MMC card host interface (SDIO) provides an interface between the AHB
peripheral bus and MultiMediaCards (MMCs), SD memory cards, SDIO cards and CE-ATA
devices.
The MultiMediaCard system specifications are available through the MultiMediaCard
Association website at www.mmca.org, published by the MMCA technical committee.
SD memory card and SD I/O card system specifications are available through the SD card
Association website at www.sdcard.org.
CE-ATA system specifications are available through the CE-ATA workgroup website at
www.ce-ata.org.
The SDIO features include the following:
● Full compliance with MultiMediaCard System Specification Version 4.2. Card support
for three different databus modes: 1-bit (default), 4-bit and 8-bit
● Full compatibility with previous versions of MultiMediaCards (forward compatibility)
● Full compliance with SD Memory Card Specifications Version 2.0
● Full compliance with SD I/O Card Specification Version 2.0: card support for two
different databus modes: 1-bit (default) and 4-bit
● Full support of the CE-ATA features (full compliance with CE-ATA digital protocol
Rev1.1)
● Data transfer up to 48 MHz for the 8 bit mode
● Data and command output enable signals to control external bidirectional drivers.
Note: 1 The SDIO does not have an SPI-compatible communication mode.
2 The SD memory card protocol is a superset of the MultiMediaCard protocol as defined in the
MultiMediaCard system specification V2.11. Several commands required for SD memory
devices are not supported by either SD I/O-only cards or the I/O portion of combo cards.
Some of these commands have no use in SD I/O devices, such as erase commands, and
thus are not supported in the SDIO. In addition, several commands are different between SD
memory cards and SD I/O cards and thus are not supported in the SDIO. For details refer to
SD I/O card Specification Version 1.0. CE-ATA is supported over the MMC electrical
interface using a protocol that utilizes the existing MMC access primitives. The interface
electrical and signaling definition is as defined in the MMC reference.

456/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

The MultiMediaCard/SD bus connects cards to the controller.

The current version of the SDIO supports only one SD/SDIO/MMC4.2 card at any one time
and a stack of MMC4.1 or previous.

20.2 SDIO bus topology

Communication over the bus is based on command and data transfers.
The basic transaction on the MultiMediaCard/SD/SD I/O bus is the command/response
transaction. These types of bus transaction transfer their information directly within the
command or response structure. In addition, some operations have a data token.
Data transfers to/from SD/SDIO memory cards are done in data blocks. Data transfers
to/from MMC are done data blocks or streams. Data transfers to/from the CE-ATA Devices
are done in data blocks.

20.3 SDIO functional description

The SDIO consists of two parts:
● The SDIO adapter block provides all functions specific to the MMC/SD/SD I/O card
such as the clock generation unit, command and data transfer.
● The AHB interface accesses the SDIO adapter registers, and generates interrupt and
DMA request signals.

AHB bus

HCLK/2 SDIOCLK
ai14740

By default SDIO_D0 is used for data transfer. After initialization, the host can change the
databus width.
If a MultiMediaCard is connected to the bus, SDIO_D0, SDIO_D[3:0] or SDIO_D[7:0] can be
used for data transfer. MMC V3.31 or previous, supports only 1 bit of data so only SDIO_D0
can be used.
If an SD or SD I/O card is connected to the bus, data transfer can be configured by the host
to use SDIO_D0 or SDIO_D[3:0]. All data lines are operating in push-pull mode.
SDIO_CMD has two operational modes:
● Open-drain for initialization (only for MMCV3.31 or previous)
● Push-pull for command transfer (SD/SD I/O card MMC4.2 use push-pull drivers also for
initialization)
SDIO_CK is the clock to the card: one bit is transferred on both command and data lines
with each clock cycle. The clock frequency can vary between 0 MHz and 20 MHz (for a
MultiMediaCard V3.31), between 0 and 48 MHz for a MultiMediaCard V4.0/4.2, or between
0 and 25 MHz (for an SD/SD I/O card).
The SDIO uses two clock signals:
● SDIO adapter clock (SDIOCLK = HCLK)
● AHB bus clock (HCLK/2)
The signals shown in Table 120 are used on the MultiMediaCard/SD/SD I/O card bus.

The SDIO adapter is a multimedia/secure digital memory card bus master that provides an
interface to a multimedia card stack or to a secure digital memory card. It consists of five
subunits:
● Adapter register block
● Control unit
● Command path
● Data path
● Data FIFO
Note: The adapter registers and FIFO use the AHB bus clock domain (HCLK/2). The control unit,
command path and data path use the SDIO adapter clock domain (SDIOCLK).

Adapter register block

The adapter register block contains all system registers. This block also generates the
signals that clear the static flags in the multimedia card. The clear signals are generated
when 1 is written into the corresponding bit location in the SDIO Clear register.

The control unit is illustrated in Figure 184. It consists of a power management subunit and
a clock management subunit.
The power management subunit disables the card bus output signals during the power-off
and power-up phases.
The clock management subunit generates and controls the SDIO_CK signal. The SDIO_CK
output can use either the clock divide or the clock bypass mode. The clock output is inactive:
● after reset
● during the power-off or power-up phases
● if the power saving mode is enabled and the card bus is in the Idle state (eight clock
periods after both the command and data path subunits enter the Idle phase)

Command path
The command path unit sends commands to and receives responses from the cards.

● Command path state machine (CPSM)

– When the command register is written to and the enable bit is set, command
transfer starts. When the command has been sent, the command path state
machine (CPSM) sets the status flags and enters the Idle state if a response is not
required. If a response is required, it waits for the response (see Figure 186 on
page 463). When the response is received, the received CRC code and the
internally generated code are compared, and the appropriate status flags are set.

When the Wait state is entered, the command timer starts running. If the timeout is reached
before the CPSM moves to the Receive state, the timeout flag is set and the Idle state is
entered.
Note: The command timeout has a fixed value of 64 SDIO_CK clock periods.
If the interrupt bit is set in the command register, the timer is disabled and the CPSM waits
for an interrupt request from one of the cards. If a pending bit is set in the command register,
the CPSM enters the Pend state, and waits for a CmdPend signal from the data path
subunit. When CmdPend is detected, the CPSM moves to the Send state. This enables the
data counter to trigger the stop command transmission.
Note: The CPSM remains in the Idle state for at least eight SDIO_CK periods to meet the NCC and
NRC timing constraints. NCC is the minimum delay between two host commands, and NRC is
the minimum delay between the host command and the card response.

● Command format
– Command: a command is a token that starts an operation. Command are sent
from the host either to a single card (addressed command) or to all connected
cards (broadcast command are available for MMC V3.31 or previous). Commands
are transferred serially on the CMD line. All commands have a fixed length of 48
bits. The general format for a command token for MultiMediaCards, SD-Memory
cards and SDIO-Cards is shown in Table 121. CE-ATA commands are an
extension of MMC commands V4.2, and so have the same format.
The command path operates in a half-duplex mode, so that commands and
responses can either be sent or received. If the CPSM is not in the Send state, the
SDIO_CMD output is in the Hi-Z state, as shown in Figure 187 on page 464. Data
on SDIO_CMD are synchronous with the rising edge of SDIO_CK. Table shows
the command format.

– Response: a response is a token that is sent from an addressed card (or

synchronously from all connected cards for MMC V3.31 or previous), to the host
as an answer to a previously received command. Responses are transferred
serially on the CMD line.
The SDIO supports two response types. Both use CRC error checking:
● 48 bit short response
● 136 bit long response
Note: If the response does not contain a CRC (CMD1 response), the device driver must ignore the
CRC failed status.

The command register contains the command index (six bits sent to a card) and the
command type. These determine whether the command requires a response, and whether
the response is 48 or 136 bits long (see Section 20.9.4 on page 499). The command path
implements the status flags shown in Table 124:

Table 124. Command path status flags

Flag Description
CMDREND Set if response CRC is OK.
CCRCFAIL Set if response CRC fails.
CMDSENT Set when command (that does not require response) is sent
CTIMEOUT Response timeout.
CMDACT Command transfer in progress.

The CRC generator calculates the CRC checksum for all bits before the CRC code. This
includes the start bit, transmitter bit, command index, and command argument (or card
status). The CRC checksum is calculated for the first 120 bits of CID or CSD for the long
response format. Note that the start bit, transmitter bit and the six reserved bits are not used
in the CRC calculation.
The CRC checksum is a 7-bit value:
CRC[6:0] = Remainder [(M(x) * x7) / G(x)]
G(x) = x7 + x3 + 1
M(x) = (start bit) * x39 + ... + (last bit before CRC) * x0, or
M(x) = (start bit) * x119 + ... + (last bit before CRC) * x0

The card databus width can be programmed using the clock control register. If the 4-bit wide
bus mode is enabled, data is transferred at four bits per clock cycle over all four data signals
(SDIO_D[3:0]). If the 8-bit wide bus mode is enabled, data is transferred at eight bits per
clock cycle over all eight data signals (SDIO_D[7:0]). If the wide bus mode is not enabled,
only one bit per clock cycle is transferred over SDIO_D0.
Depending on the transfer direction (send or receive), the data path state machine (DPSM)
moves to the Wait_S or Wait_R state when it is enabled:
● Send: the DPSM moves to the Wait_S state. If there is data in the transmit FIFO, the
DPSM moves to the Send state, and the data path subunit starts sending data to a
card.
● Receive: the DPSM moves to the Wait_R state and waits for a start bit. When it
receives a start bit, the DPSM moves to the Receive state, and the data path subunit
starts receiving data from a card.
Data path state machine (DPSM)
The DPSM operates at SDIO_CK frequency. Data on the card bus signals is synchronous to
the rising edge of SDIO_CK. The DPSM has six states, as shown in Figure 189: Data path
state machine (DPSM).

● Idle: the data path is inactive, and the SDIO_D[7:0] outputs are in Hi-Z. When the data
control register is written and the enable bit is set, the DPSM loads the data counter
with a new value and, depending on the data direction bit, moves to either the Wait_S
or the Wait_R state.
● Wait_R: if the data counter equals zero, the DPSM moves to the Idle state when the
receive FIFO is empty. If the data counter is not zero, the DPSM waits for a start bit on
SDIO_D. The DPSM moves to the Receive state if it receives a start bit before a
timeout, and loads the data block counter. If it reaches a timeout before it detects a
start bit, or a start bit error occurs, it moves to the Idle state and sets the timeout status
flag.
● Receive: serial data received from a card is packed in bytes and written to the data
FIFO. Depending on the transfer mode bit in the data control register, the data transfer
mode can be either block or stream:
– In block mode, when the data block counter reaches zero, the DPSM waits until it
receives the CRC code. If the received code matches the internally generated
CRC code, the DPSM moves to the Wait_R state. If not, the CRC fail status flag is
set and the DPSM moves to the Idle state.
– In stream mode, the DPSM receives data while the data counter is not zero. When
the counter is zero, the remaining data in the shift register is written to the data
FIFO, and the DPSM moves to the Wait_R state.
If a FIFO overrun error occurs, the DPSM sets the FIFO error flag and moves to the Idle
state:
● Wait_S: the DPSM moves to the Idle state if the data counter is zero. If not, it waits until
the data FIFO empty flag is deasserted, and moves to the Send state.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 467/995

Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO) RM0008

Note: The DPSM remains in the Wait_S state for at least two clock periods to meet the NWR timing
requirements, where NWR is the number of clock cycles between the reception of the card
response and the start of the data transfer from the host.
● Send: the DPSM starts sending data to a card. Depending on the transfer mode bit in
the data control register, the data transfer mode can be either block or stream:
– In block mode, when the data block counter reaches zero, the DPSM sends an
internally generated CRC code and end bit, and moves to the Busy state.
– In stream mode, the DPSM sends data to a card while the enable bit is high and
the data counter is not zero. It then moves to the Idle state.
If a FIFO underrun error occurs, the DPSM sets the FIFO error flag and moves to the
Idle state.
● Busy: the DPSM waits for the CRC status flag:
– If it does not receive a positive CRC status, it moves to the Idle state and sets the
CRC fail status flag.
– If it receives a positive CRC status, it moves to the Wait_S state if SDIO_D0 is not
low (the card is not busy).
If a timeout occurs while the DPSM is in the Busy state, it sets the data timeout flag and
moves to the Idle state.
The data timer is enabled when the DPSM is in the Wait_R or Busy state, and
generates the data timeout error:
– When transmitting data, the timeout occurs if the DPSM stays in the Busy state for
longer than the programmed timeout period
– When receiving data, the timeout occurs if the end of the data is not true, and if the
DPSM stays in the Wait_R state for longer than the programmed timeout period.
● Data: data can be transferred from the card to the host or vice versa. Data is
transferred via the data lines. They are stored in a FIFO of 32 words, each word is 32
bits wide.

Data FIFO
The data FIFO (first-in-first-out) subunit is a data buffer with a transmit and receive unit.
The FIFO contains a 32-bit wide, 32-word deep data buffer, and transmit and receive logic.
Because the data FIFO operates in the AHB clock domain (HCLK/2), all signals from the
subunits in the SDIO clock domain (SDIOCLK) are resynchronized.

468/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

Depending on the TXACT and RXACT flags, the FIFO can be disabled, transmit enabled, or
receive enabled. TXACT and RXACT are driven by the data path subunit and are mutually
exclusive:
– The transmit FIFO refers to the transmit logic and data buffer when TXACT is
asserted
– The receive FIFO refers to the receive logic and data buffer when RXACT is
asserted
● Transmit FIFO:
Data can be written to the transmit FIFO through the AHB interface when the SDIO is
enabled for transmission.
The transmit FIFO is accessible via 32 sequential addresses. The transmit FIFO
contains a data output register that holds the data word pointed to by the read pointer.
When the data path subunit has loaded its shift register, it increments the read pointer
and drives new data out.
If the transmit FIFO is disabled, all status flags are deasserted. The data path subunit
asserts TXACT when it transmits data.

Table 126. Transmit FIFO status flags

Flag Description

TXFIFOF Set to high when all 32 transmit FIFO words contain valid data.
TXFIFOE Set to high when the transmit FIFO does not contain valid data.
Set to high when 8 or more transmit FIFO words are empty. This flag can be used

as a DMA request.
Set to high when the transmit FIFO contains valid data. This flag is the inverse of
TXDAVL
the TXFIFOE flag.
Set to high when an underrun error occurs. This flag is cleared by writing to the
TXUNDERR
SDIO Clear register.

● Receive FIFO
When the data path subunit receives a word of data, it drives the data on the write
databus. The write pointer is incremented after the write operation completes. On the
read side, the contents of the FIFO word pointed to by the current value of the read
pointer is driven onto the read databus. If the receive FIFO is disabled, all status flags
are deasserted, and the read and write pointers are reset. The data path subunit
asserts RXACT when it receives data. Table 127 lists the receive FIFO status flags.
The receive FIFO is accessible via 32 sequential addresses.

20.3.2 SDIO AHB interface

The AHB interface generates the interrupt and DMA requests, and accesses the SDIO
adapter registers and the data FIFO. It consists of a data path, register decoder, and
interrupt/DMA logic.

SDIO interrupts
The interrupt logic generates an interrupt request signal that is asserted when at least one
of the selected status flags is high. A mask register is provided to allow selection of the
conditions that will generate an interrupt. A status flag generates the interrupt request if a
corresponding mask flag is set.

SDIO/DMA interface: procedure for data transfers between the SDIO and
memory
In the example shown, the transfer is from the SDIO host controller to an MMC (512 bytes
using CMD24 (WRITE_BLOCK). The SDIO FIFO is filled by data stored in a memory using
the DMA controller.
1. Do the card identification process
2. Increase the SDIO_CK frequency
3. Select the card by sending CMD7
4. Configure the DMA2 as follows:
a) Enable DMA2 controller and clear any pending interrupts
b) Program the DMA2_Channel4 source address register with the memory location’s
base address and DMA2_Channel4 destination address register with the
SDIO_FIFO register address
c) Program DMA2_Channel4 control register (memory increment, not peripheral
increment, peripheral and source width is word size)
d) Enable DMA2_Channel4

470/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

5. Send CMD24 (WRITE_BLOCK) as follows:

a) Program the SDIO data length register (SDIO data timer register should be
already programmed before the card identification process)
b) Program the SDIO argument register with the address location of the card where
data is to be transferred
c) Program the SDIO command register: CmdIndex with 24 (WRITE_BLOCK);
WaitResp with ‘1’ (SDIO card host waits for a response); CPSMEN with ‘1’ (SDIO
card host enabled to send a command). Other fields are at their reset value.
d) Wait for SDIO_STA[6] = CMDREND interrupt, then program the SDIO data control
register: DTEN with ‘1’ (SDIO card host enabled to send data); DTDIR with ‘0’
(from controller to card); DTMODE with ‘0’ (block data transfer); DMAEN with ‘1’
(DMA enabled); DBLOCKSIZE with 0x9 (512 bytes). Other fields are don’t care.
e) Wait for SDIO_STA[10] = DBCKEND
6. Check that no channels are still enabled by polling the DMA Enabled Channel Status
register.

20.4 Card functional description

20.4.1 Card identification mode

While in card identification mode the host resets all cards, validates the operation voltage
range, identifies cards and sets a relative card address (RCA) for each card on the bus. All
data communications in the card identification mode use the command line (CMD) only.

20.4.2 Card reset

The GO_IDLE_STATE command (CMD0) is the software reset command and it puts the
MultiMediaCard and SD memory in the Idle state. The IO_RW_DIRECT command (CMD52)
resets the SD I/O card. After power-up or CMD0, all cards output bus drivers are in the high-
impedance state and the cards are initialized with a default relative card address
(RCA=0x0001) and with a default driver stage register setting (lowest speed, highest driving
current capability).

20.4.3 Operating voltage range validation

All cards can communicate with the SDIO card host using any operating voltage within the
specification range. The supported minimum and maximum VDD values are defined in the
operation conditions register (OCR) on the card.
Cards that store the card identification number (CID) and card specific data (CSD) in the
payload memory are able to communicate this information only under data-transfer VDD
conditions. When the SDIO card host module and the card have incompatible VDD ranges,
the card is not able to complete the identification cycle and cannot send CSD data. For this
purpose, the special commands, SEND_OP_COND (CMD1), SD_APP_OP_COND (ACMD41
for SD Memory), and IO_SEND_OP_COND (CMD5 for SD I/O), are designed to provide a
mechanism to identify and reject cards that do not match the VDD range desired by the
SDIO card host. The SDIO card host sends the required VDD voltage window as the
operand of these commands. Cards that cannot perform data transfer in the specified range
disconnect from the bus and go to the inactive state.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 471/995

Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO) RM0008

By using these commands without including the voltage range as the operand, the SDIO
card host can query each card and determine the common voltage range before placing out-
of-range cards in the inactive state. This query is used when the SDIO card host is able to
select a common voltage range or when the user requires notification that cards are not
usable.

20.4.4 Card identification process

The card identification process differs for MultiMediaCards and SD cards. For
MultiMediaCard cards, the identification process starts at clock rate Fod. The SDIO_CMD
line output drivers are open-drain and allow parallel card operation during this process. The
registration process is accomplished as follows:
1. The bus is activated.
2. The SDIO card host broadcasts SEND_OP_COND (CMD1) to receive operation
conditions.
3. The response is the wired AND operation of the operation condition registers from all
cards.
4. Incompatible cards are placed in the inactive state.
5. The SDIO card host broadcasts ALL_SEND_CID (CMD2) to all active cards.
6. The active cards simultaneously send their CID numbers serially. Cards with outgoing
CID bits that do not match the bits on the command line stop transmitting and must wait
for the next identification cycle. One card successfully transmits a full CID to the SDIO
card host and enters the Identification state.
7. The SDIO card host issues SET_RELATIVE_ADDR (CMD3) to that card. This new
address is called the relative card address (RCA); it is shorter than the CID and
addresses the card. The assigned card changes to the Standby state, it does not react
to further identification cycles, and its output switches from open-drain to push-pull.
8. The SDIO card host repeats steps 5 through 7 until it receives a timeout condition.
For the SD card, the identification process starts at clock rate Fod, and the SDIO_CMD line
output drives are push-pull drivers instead of open-drain. The registration process is
accomplished as follows:
1. The bus is activated.
2. The SDIO card host broadcasts SD_APP_OP_COND (ACMD41).
3. The cards respond with the contents of their operation condition registers.
4. The incompatible cards are placed in the inactive state.
5. The SDIO card host broadcasts ALL_SEND_CID (CMD2) to all active cards.
6. The cards send back their unique card identification numbers (CIDs) and enter the
Identification state.
7. The SDIO card host issues SET_RELATIVE_ADDR (CMD3) to an active card with an
address. This new address is called the relative card address (RCA); it is shorter than
the CID and addresses the card. The assigned card changes to the Standby state. The
SDIO card host can reissue this command to change the RCA. The RCA of the card is
the last assigned value.
8. The SDIO card host repeats steps 5 through 7 with all active cards.
For the SD I/O card, the registration process is accomplished as follows:

472/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

1. The bus is activated.

2. The SDIO card host sends IO_SEND_OP_COND (CMD5).
3. The cards respond with the contents of their operation condition registers.
4. The incompatible cards are set to the inactive state.
5. The SDIO card host issues SET_RELATIVE_ADDR (CMD3) to an active card with an
address. This new address is called the relative card address (RCA); it is shorter than
the CID and addresses the card. The assigned card changes to the Standby state. The
SDIO card host can reissue this command to change the RCA. The RCA of the card is
the last assigned value.

20.4.5 Block write

During block write (CMD24 - 27) one or more blocks of data are transferred from the host to
the card with a CRC appended to the end of each block by the host. A card supporting block
write is always able to accept a block of data defined by WRITE_BL_LEN. If the CRC fails,
the card indicates the failure on the SDIO_D line and the transferred data are discarded and
not written, and all further transmitted blocks (in multiple block write mode) are ignored.
If the host uses partial blocks whose accumulated length is not block aligned and, block
misalignment is not allowed (CSD parameter WRITE_BLK_MISALIGN is not set), the card
will detect the block misalignment error before the beginning of the first misaligned block.
(ADDRESS_ERROR error bit is set in the status register). The write operation will also be
aborted if the host tries to write over a write-protected area. In this case, however, the card
will set the WP_VIOLATION bit.
Programming of the CID and CSD registers does not require a previous block length setting.
The transferred data is also CRC protected. If a part of the CSD or CID register is stored in
ROM, then this unchangeable part must match the corresponding part of the receive buffer.
If this match fails, then the card reports an error and does not change any register contents.
Some cards may require long and unpredictable times to write a block of data. After
receiving a block of data and completing the CRC check, the card begins writing and holds
the SDIO_D line low if its write buffer is full and unable to accept new data from a new
WRITE_BLOCK command. The host may poll the status of the card with a SEND_STATUS
command (CMD13) at any time, and the card will respond with its status. The
READY_FOR_DATA status bit indicates whether the card can accept new data or whether
the write process is still in progress. The host may deselect the card by issuing CMD7 (to
select a different card), which will place the card in the Disconnect state and release the
SDIO_D line(s) without interrupting the write operation. When reselecting the card, it will
reactivate busy indication by pulling SDIO_D to low if programming is still in progress and
the write buffer is unavailable.

20.4.6 Block read

In Block read mode the basic unit of data transfer is a block whose maximum size is defined
in the CSD (READ_BL_LEN). If READ_BL_PARTIAL is set, smaller blocks whose start and
end addresses are entirely contained within one physical block (as defined by
READ_BL_LEN) may also be transmitted. A CRC is appended to the end of each block,
ensuring data transfer integrity. CMD17 (READ_SINGLE_BLOCK) initiates a block read and
after completing the transfer, the card returns to the Transfer state.
CMD18 (READ_MULTIPLE_BLOCK) starts a transfer of several consecutive blocks.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 473/995

Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO) RM0008

The host can abort reading at any time, within a multiple block operation, regardless of its
type. Transaction abort is done by sending the stop transmission command.
If the card detects an error (for example, out of range, address misalignment or internal
error) during a multiple block read operation (both types) it stops the data transmission and
remains in the data state. The host must than abort the operation by sending the stop
transmission command. The read error is reported in the response to the stop transmission
command.
If the host sends a stop transmission command after the card transmits the last block of a
multiple block operation with a predefined number of blocks, it is responded to as an illegal
command, since the card is no longer in the data state. If the host uses partial blocks whose
accumulated length is not block-aligned and block misalignment is not allowed, the card
detects a block misalignment error condition at the beginning of the first misaligned block
(ADDRESS_ERROR error bit is set in the status register).

20.4.7 Stream access, stream write and stream read (MultiMediaCard only)
In stream mode, data is transferred in bytes and no CRC is appended at the end of each
block.

Stream write (MultiMediaCard only)

WRITE_DAT_UNTIL_STOP (CMD20) starts the data transfer from the SDIO card host to the
card, beginning at the specified address and continuing until the SDIO card host issues a
stop command. When partial blocks are allowed (CSD parameter WRITE_BL_PARTIAL is
set), the data stream can start and stop at any address within the card address space,
otherwise it can only start and stop at block boundaries. Because the amount of data to be
transferred is not determined in advance, a CRC cannot be used. When the end of the
memory range is reached while sending data and no stop command is sent by the SD card
host, any additional transferred data are discarded.
The maximum clock frequency for a stream write operation is given by the following
equation fields of the card-specific data register:

8  2 writebllen   – NSAC )
Maximumspeed = MIN (TRANSPEED,------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAAC  R2WFACTOR

● Maximumspeed = maximum write frequency

● TRANSPEED = maximum data transfer rate
● writebllen = maximum write data block length
● NSAC = data read access time 2 in CLK cycles
● TAAC = data read access time 1
● R2WFACTOR = write speed factor
If the host attempts to use a higher frequency, the card may not be able to process the data
and stop programming, set the OVERRUN error bit in the status register, and while ignoring
all further data transfer, wait (in the receive data state) for a stop command. The write
operation is also aborted if the host tries to write over a write-protected area. In this case,
however, the card sets the WP_VIOLATION bit.

Stream read (MultiMediaCard only)

READ_DAT_UNTIL_STOP (CMD11) controls a stream-oriented data transfer.
This command instructs the card to send its data, starting at a specified address, until the
SDIO card host sends STOP_TRANSMISSION (CMD12). The stop command has an
execution delay due to the serial command transmission and the data transfer stops after
the end bit of the stop command. When the end of the memory range is reached while
sending data and no stop command is sent by the SDIO card host, any subsequent data
sent are considered undefined.
The maximum clock frequency for a stream read operation is given by the following equation
and uses fields of the card specific data register.

8  2 readbllen   – NSAC )
Maximumspeed = MIN (TRANSPEED,-----------------------------------------------------------------------
TAAC  R2WFACTOR

● Maximumspeed = maximum read frequency

● TRANSPEED = maximum data transfer rate
● readbllen = maximum read data block length
● writebllen = maximum write data block length
● NSAC = data read access time 2 in CLK cycles
● TAAC = data read access time 1
● R2WFACTOR = write speed factor
If the host attempts to use a higher frequency, the card is not able to sustain data transfer. If
this happens, the card sets the UNDERRUN error bit in the status register, aborts the
transmission and waits in the data state for a stop command.

20.4.8 Erase: group erase and sector erase

The erasable unit of the MultiMediaCard is the erase group. The erase group is measured in
write blocks, which are the basic writable units of the card. The size of the erase group is a
card-specific parameter and defined in the CSD.
The host can erase a contiguous range of Erase Groups. Starting the erase process is a
three-step sequence.
First the host defines the start address of the range using the ERASE_GROUP_START
(CMD35) command, next it defines the last address of the range using the
ERASE_GROUP_END (CMD36) command and, finally, it starts the erase process by issuing
the ERASE (CMD38) command. The address field in the erase commands is an Erase
Group address in byte units. The card ignores all LSBs below the Erase Group size,
effectively rounding the address down to the Erase Group boundary.
If an erase command is received out of sequence, the card sets the ERASE_SEQ_ERROR
bit in the status register and resets the whole sequence.
If an out-of-sequence (neither of the erase commands, except SEND_STATUS) command
received, the card sets the ERASE_RESET status bit in the status register, resets the erase
sequence and executes the last command.
If the erase range includes write protected blocks, they are left intact and only nonprotected
blocks are erased. The WP_ERASE_SKIP status bit in the status register is set.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 475/995

Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO) RM0008

The card indicates that an erase is in progress by holding SDIO_D low. The actual erase
time may be quite long, and the host may issue CMD7 to deselect the card.

20.4.9 Wide bus selection or deselection

Wide bus (4-bit bus width) operation mode is selected or deselected using
SET_BUS_WIDTH (ACMD6). The default bus width after power-up or GO_IDLE_STATE
(CMD0) is 1 bit. SET_BUS_WIDTH (ACMD6) is only valid in a transfer state, which means
that the bus width can be changed only after a card is selected by
SELECT/DESELECT_CARD (CMD7).

20.4.10 Protection management

Three write protection methods for the cards are supported in the SDIO card host module:
1. internal card write protection (card responsibility)
2. mechanical write protection switch (SDIO card host module responsibility only)
3. password-protected card lock operation

Internal card write protection

Card data can be protected against write and erase. By setting the permanent or temporary
write-protect bits in the CSD, the entire card can be permanently write-protected by the
manufacturer or content provider. For cards that support write protection of groups of
sectors by setting the WP_GRP_ENABLE bit in the CSD, portions of the data can be
protected, and the write protection can be changed by the application. The write protection
is in units of WP_GRP_SIZE sectors as specified in the CSD. The SET_WRITE_PROT and
CLR_WRITE_PROT commands control the protection of the addressed group. The
SEND_WRITE_PROT command is similar to a single block read command. The card sends a
data block containing 32 write protection bits (representing 32 write protect groups starting
at the specified address) followed by 16 CRC bits. The address field in the write protect
commands is a group address in byte units.
The card ignores all LSBs below the group size.

Mechanical write protect switch

A mechanical sliding tab on the side of the card allows the user to set or clear the write
protection on a card. When the sliding tab is positioned with the window open, the card is
write-protected, and when the window is closed, the card contents can be changed. A
matched switch on the socket side indicates to the SDIO card host module that the card is
write-protected. The SDIO card host module is responsible for protecting the card. The
position of the write protect switch is unknown to the internal circuitry of the card.

Password protect
The password protection feature enables the SDIO card host module to lock and unlock a
card with a password. The password is stored in the 128-bit PWD register and its size is set
in the 8-bit PWD_LEN register. These registers are non-volatile so that a power cycle does
not erase them. Locked cards respond to and execute certain commands. This means that
the SDIO card host module is allowed to reset, initialize, select, and query for status,
however it is not allowed to access data on the card. When the password is set (as indicated
by a nonzero value of PWD_LEN), the card is locked automatically after power-up. As with
the CSD and CID register write commands, the lock/unlock commands are available in the
transfer state only. In this state, the command does not include an address argument and

476/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

the card must be selected before using it. The card lock/unlock commands have the
structure and bus transaction types of a regular single-block write command. The
transferred data block includes all of the required information for the command (the
password setting mode, the PWD itself, and card lock/unlock). The command data block
size is defined by the SDIO card host module before it sends the card lock/unlock command,
and has the structure shown in Table 141.
The bit settings are as follows:
● ERASE: setting it forces an erase operation. All other bits must be zero, and only the
command byte is sent
● LOCK_UNLOCK: setting it locks the card. LOCK_UNLOCK can be set simultaneously
with SET_PWD, however not with CLR_PWD
● CLR_PWD: setting it clears the password data
● SET_PWD: setting it saves the password data to memory
● PWD_LEN: it defines the length of the password in bytes
● PWD: the password (new or currently used, depending on the command)
The following sections list the command sequences to set/reset a password, lock/unlock the
card, and force an erase.

Setting the password

1. Select a card (SELECT/DESELECT_CARD, CMD7), if none is already selected.
2. Define the block length (SET_BLOCKLEN, CMD16) to send, given by the 8-bit card
lock/unlock mode, the 8-bit PWD_LEN, and the number of bytes of the new password.
When a password replacement is done, the block size must take into account that both
the old and the new passwords are sent with the command.
3. Send LOCK/UNLOCK (CMD42) with the appropriate data block size on the data line
including the 16-bit CRC. The data block indicates the mode (SET_PWD = 1), the
length (PWD_LEN), and the password (PWD) itself. When a password replacement is
done, the length value (PWD_LEN) includes the length of both passwords, the old and
the new one, and the PWD field includes the old password (currently used) followed by
the new password.
4. When the password is matched, the new password and its size are saved into the PWD
and PWD_LEN fields, respectively. When the old password sent does not correspond
(in size and/or content) to the expected password, the LOCK_UNLOCK_FAILED error
bit is set in the card status register, and the password is not changed.
The password length field (PWD_LEN) indicates whether a password is currently set. When
this field is nonzero, there is a password set and the card locks itself after power-up. It is
possible to lock the card immediately in the current power session by setting the
LOCK_UNLOCK bit (while setting the password) or sending an additional command for card
locking.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 477/995

Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO) RM0008

Resetting the password

1. Select a card (SELECT/DESELECT_CARD, CMD7), if none is already selected.
2. Define the block length (SET_BLOCKLEN, CMD16) to send, given by the 8-bit card
lock/unlock mode, the 8-bit PWD_LEN, and the number of bytes in the currently used
password.
3. Send LOCK/UNLOCK (CMD42) with the appropriate data block size on the data line
including the 16-bit CRC. The data block indicates the mode (CLR_PWD = 1), the
length (PWD_LEN) and the password (PWD) itself. The LOCK_UNLOCK bit is ignored.
4. When the password is matched, the PWD field is cleared and PWD_LEN is set to 0.
When the password sent does not correspond (in size and/or content) to the expected
password, the LOCK_UNLOCK_FAILED error bit is set in the card status register, and
the password is not changed.

Locking a card
1. Select a card (SELECT/DESELECT_CARD, CMD7), if none is already selected.
2. Define the block length (SET_BLOCKLEN, CMD16) to send, given by the 8-bit card
lock/unlock mode (byte 0 in Table 141), the 8-bit PWD_LEN, and the number of bytes of
the current password.
3. Send LOCK/UNLOCK (CMD42) with the appropriate data block size on the data line
including the 16-bit CRC. The data block indicates the mode (LOCK_UNLOCK = 1), the
length (PWD_LEN), and the password (PWD) itself.
4. When the password is matched, the card is locked and the CARD_IS_LOCKED status
bit is set in the card status register. When the password sent does not correspond (in
size and/or content) to the expected password, the LOCK_UNLOCK_FAILED error bit
is set in the card status register, and the lock fails.
It is possible to set the password and to lock the card in the same sequence. In this case,
the SDIO card host module performs all the required steps for setting the password (see
Setting the password on page 477), however it is necessary to set the LOCK_UNLOCK bit
in Step 3 when the new password command is sent.
When the password is previously set (PWD_LEN is not 0), the card is locked automatically
after power on reset. An attempt to lock a locked card or to lock a card that does not have a
password fails and the LOCK_UNLOCK_FAILED error bit is set in the card status register.

Unlocking the card

1. Select a card (SELECT/DESELECT_CARD, CMD7), if none is already selected.
2. Define the block length (SET_BLOCKLEN, CMD16) to send, given by the 8-bit
cardlock/unlock mode (byte 0 in Table 141), the 8-bit PWD_LEN, and the number of
bytes of the current password.
3. Send LOCK/UNLOCK (CMD42) with the appropriate data block size on the data line
including the 16-bit CRC. The data block indicates the mode (LOCK_UNLOCK = 0), the
length (PWD_LEN), and the password (PWD) itself.
4. When the password is matched, the card is unlocked and the CARD_IS_LOCKED
status bit is cleared in the card status register. When the password sent is not correct in
size and/or content and does not correspond to the expected password, the
LOCK_UNLOCK_FAILED error bit is set in the card status register, and the card
remains locked.

478/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

The unlocking function is only valid for the current power session. When the PWD field is not
clear, the card is locked automatically on the next power-up.
An attempt to unlock an unlocked card fails and the LOCK_UNLOCK_FAILED error bit is set
in the card status register.

Forcing erase
If the user has forgotten the password (PWD content), it is possible to access the card after
clearing all the data on the card. This forced erase operation erases all card data and all
password data.
1. Select a card (SELECT/DESELECT_CARD, CMD7), if none is already selected.
2. Set the block length (SET_BLOCKLEN, CMD16) to 1 byte. Only the 8-bit card
lock/unlock byte (byte 0 in Table 141) is sent.
3. Send LOCK/UNLOCK (CMD42) with the appropriate data byte on the data line including
the 16-bit CRC. The data block indicates the mode (ERASE = 1). All other bits must be
zero.
4. When the ERASE bit is the only bit set in the data field, all card contents are erased,
including the PWD and PWD_LEN fields, and the card is no longer locked. When any
other bits are set, the LOCK_UNLOCK_FAILED error bit is set in the card status
register and the card retains all of its data, and remains locked.
An attempt to use a force erase on an unlocked card fails and the LOCK_UNLOCK_FAILED
error bit is set in the card status register.

20.4.11 Card status register

The response format R1 contains a 32-bit field named card status. This field is intended to
transmit the card status information (which may be stored in a local status register) to the
host. If not specified otherwise, the status entries are always related to the previously issued
command.
Table 128 defines the different entries of the status. The type and clear condition fields in the
table are abbreviated as follows:
Type:
● E: error bit
● S: status bit
● R: detected and set for the actual command response
● X: detected and set during command execution. The SDIO card host must poll the card
by issuing the status command to read these bits.
Clear condition:
● A: according to the card current state
● B: always related to the previous command. Reception of a valid command clears it
(with a delay of one command)
● C: clear by read

20.4.13 SD I/O mode

SD I/O interrupts
To allow the SD I/O card to interrupt the MultiMediaCard/SD module, an interrupt function is
available on a pin on the SD interface. Pin 8, used as SDIO_D1 when operating in the 4-bit
SD mode, signals the cards interrupt to the MultiMediaCard/SD module. The use of the
interrupt is optional for each card or function within a card. The SD I/O interrupt is level-
sensitive, which means that the interrupt line must be held active (low) until it is either
recognized and acted upon by the MultiMediaCard/SD module or deasserted due to the end
of the interrupt period. After the MultiMediaCard/SD module has serviced the interrupt, the
interrupt status bit is cleared via an I/O write to the appropriate bit in the SD I/O card’s
internal registers. The interrupt output of all SD I/O cards is active low and the
MultiMediaCard/SD module provides pull-up resistors on all data lines (SDIO_D[3:0]). The
MultiMediaCard/SD module samples the level of pin 8 (SDIO_D/IRQ) into the interrupt
detector only during the interrupt period. At all other times, the MultiMediaCard/SD module
ignores this value.
The interrupt period is applicable for both memory and I/O operations. The definition of the
interrupt period for operations with single blocks is different from the definition for multiple-
block data transfers.

SD I/O suspend and resume

Within a multifunction SD I/O or a card with both I/O and memory functions, there are
multiple devices (I/O and memory) that share access to the MMC/SD bus. To share access
to the MMC/SD module among multiple devices, SD I/O and combo cards optionally
implement the concept of suspend/resume. When a card supports suspend/resume, the
MMC/SD module can temporarily halt a data transfer operation to one function or memory
(suspend) to free the bus for a higher-priority transfer to a different function or memory. After
this higher-priority transfer is complete, the original transfer is resumed (restarted) where it
left off. Support of suspend/resume is optional on a per-card basis. To perform the

486/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

suspend/resume operation on the MMC/SD bus, the MMC/SD module performs the
following steps:
1. Determines the function currently using the SDIO_D [3:0] line(s)
2. Requests the lower-priority or slower transaction to suspend
3. Waits for the transaction suspension to complete
4. Begins the higher-priority transaction
5. Waits for the completion of the higher priority transaction
6. Restores the suspended transaction

SD I/O ReadWait
The optional ReadWait (RW) operation is defined only for the SD 1-bit and 4-bit modes. The
ReadWait operation allows the MMC/SD module to signal a card that it is reading multiple
registers (IO_RW_EXTENDED, CMD53) to temporarily stall the data transfer while allowing
the MMC/SD module to send commands to any function within the SD I/O device. To
determine when a card supports the ReadWait protocol, the MMC/SD module must test
capability bits in the internal card registers. The timing for ReadWait is based on the
interrupt period.

20.4.14 Commands and responses

Application-specific and general commands
The SD card host module system is designed to provide a standard interface for a variety of
applications types. In this environment, there is a need for specific customer/application
features. To implement these features, two types of generic commands are defined in the
standard: application-specific commands (ACMD) and general commands (GEN_CMD).
When the card receives the APP_CMD (CMD55) command, the card expects the next
command to be an application-specific command. ACMDs have the same structure as
regular MultiMediaCard commands and can have the same CMD number. The card
recognizes it as ACMD because it appears after APP_CMD (CMD55). When the command
immediately following the APP_CMD (CMD55) is not a defined application-specific
command, the standard command is used. For example, when the card has a definition for
SD_STATUS (ACMD13), and receives CMD13 immediately following APP_CMD (CMD55),
this is interpreted as SD_STATUS (ACMD13). However, when the card receives CMD7
immediately following APP_CMD (CMD55) and the card does not have a definition for
ACMD7, this is interpreted as the standard (SELECT/DESELECT_CARD) CMD7.
To use one of the manufacturer-specific ACMDs the SD card Host must perform the
following steps:
1. Send APP_CMD (CMD55)
The card responds to the MultiMediaCard/SD module, indicating that the APP_CMD bit
is set and an ACMD is now expected.
2. Send the required ACMD
The card responds to the MultiMediaCard/SD module, indicating that the APP_CMD bit
is set and that the accepted command is interpreted as an ACMD. When a non-ACMD
is sent, it is handled by the card as a normal MultiMediaCard command and the
APP_CMD bit in the card status register stays clear.
When an invalid command is sent (neither ACMD nor CMD) it is handled as a standard
MultiMediaCard illegal command error.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 487/995

Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO) RM0008

The bus transaction for a GEN_CMD is the same as the single-block read or write
commands (WRITE_BLOCK, CMD24 or READ_SINGLE_BLOCK,CMD17). In this case, the
argument denotes the direction of the data transfer rather than the address, and the data
block has vendor-specific format and meaning.
The card must be selected (in transfer state) before sending GEN_CMD (CMD56). The data
block size is defined by SET_BLOCKLEN (CMD16). The response to GEN_CMD (CMD56)
is in R1b format.

Command types
Both application-specific and general commands are divided into the four following types:
● broadcast command (BC): sent to all cards; no responses returned.
● broadcast command with response (BCR): sent to all cards; responses received
from all cards simultaneously.
● addressed (point-to-point) command (AC): sent to the card that is selected; does
not include a data transfer on the SDIO_D line(s).
● addressed (point-to-point) data transfer command (ADTC): sent to the card that is
selected; includes a data transfer on the SDIO_D line(s).

20.5 Response formats

All responses are sent via the MCCMD command line SDIO_CMD. The response
transmission always starts with the left bit of the bit string corresponding to the response
code word. The code length depends on the response type.
A response always starts with a start bit (always 0), followed by the bit indicating the
direction of transmission (card = 0). A value denoted by x in the tables below indicates a
variable entry. All responses, except for the R3 response type, are protected by a CRC.
Every command code word is terminated by the end bit (always 1).
There are five types of responses. Their formats are defined as follows:

490/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

20.5.1 R1 (normal response command)

Code length = 48 bits. The 45:40 bits indicate the index of the command to be responded to,
this value being interpreted as a binary-coded number (between 0 and 63). The status of the
card is coded in 32 bits.

20.5.2 R1b
It is identical to R1 with an optional busy signal transmitted on the data line. The card may
become busy after receiving these commands based on its state prior to the command
reception.

20.5.3 R2 (CID, CSD register)

Code length = 136 bits. The contents of the CID register are sent as a response to the
CMD2 and CMD10 commands. The contents of the CSD register are sent as a response to
CMD9. Only the bits [127...1] of the CID and CSD are transferred, the reserved bit [0] of
these registers is replaced by the end bit of the response. The card indicates that an erase
is in progress by holding MCDAT low. The actual erase time may be quite long, and the host
may issue CMD7 to deselect the card.

Once an SD I/O card has received a CMD5, the I/O portion of that card is enabled to
respond normally to all further commands. This I/O enable of the function within the I/O card
will remain set until a reset, power cycle or CMD52 with write to I/O reset is received by the
card. Note that an SD memory-only card may respond to a CMD5. The proper response for
a memory-only card would be Present memory = 1 and Number of I/O functions = 0. A
memory-only card built to meet the SD Memory Card specification version 1.0 would detect
the CMD5 as an illegal command and not respond. The I/O aware host will send CMD5. If
the card responds with response R4, the host determines the card’s configuration based on
the data contained within the R4 response.

20.5.7 R5 (interrupt request)

Only for MultiMediaCard. Code length: 48 bits. If the response is generated by the host, the
RCA field in the argument will be 0x0.

● Bits [12:0] Reserved

20.6 SDIO I/O card-specific operations

The following features are SD I/O-specific operations:
● SDIO read wait operation by SDIO_D2 signalling
● SDIO read wait operation by stopping the clock
● SDIO suspend/resume operation (write and read suspend)
● SDIO interrupts
The SDIO supports these operations only if the SDIO_DCTRL[11] bit is set, except for read
suspend that does not need specific hardware implementation.

20.6.1 SDIO I/O read wait operation by SDIO_D2 signalling

It is possible to start the readwait interval before the first block is received: when the data
path is enabled (SDIO_DCTRL[0] bit set), the SDIO-specific operation is enabled
(SDIO_DCTRL[11] bit set), read wait starts (SDI0_DCTRL[10] =0 and SDI_DCTRL[8] =1)
and data direction is from card to SDIO (SDIO_DCTRL[1] = 1), the DPSM directly moves
from Idle to Readwait. In Readwait the DPSM drives SDIO_D2 to 0 after 2 SDIO_CK clock
cycles. In this state, when you set the RWSTOP bit (SDIO_DCTRL[9]), the DPSM remains
in Wait for two more SDIO_CK clock cycles to drive SDIO_D2 to 1 for one clock cycle (in
accordance with SDIO specification). The DPSM then starts waiting again until it receives
data from the card. The DPSM will not start a readwait interval while receiving a block even
if read wait start is set: the readwait interval will start after the CRC is received. The
RWSTOP bit has to be cleared to start a new read wait operation. During the readwait
interval, the SDIO can detect SDIO interrupts on SDIO_D1.

20.6.2 SDIO read wait operation by stopping SDIO_CK

If the SDIO card does not support the previous read wait method, the SDIO can perform a
read wait by stopping SDIO_CK (SDIO_DCTRL is set just like in the method presented in
Section 20.6.1, but SDIO_DCTRL[10] =1): DSPM stops the clock two SDIO_CK cycles after
the end bit of the current received block and starts the clock again after the read wait start
bit is set.

494/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO)

As SDIO_CK is stopped, any command can be issued to the card. During a read/wait
interval, the SDIO can detect SDIO interrupts on SDIO_D1.

20.6.3 SDIO suspend/resume operation

While sending data to the card, the SDIO can suspend the write operation. the
SDIO_CMD[11] bit is set and indicates to the CPSM that the current command is a suspend
command. The CPSM analyzes the response and when the ACK is received from the card
(suspend accepted), it acknowledges the DPSM that goes Idle after receiving the CRC
token of the current block.
The hardware does not save the number of the remaining block to be sent to complete the
suspended operation (resume).
The write operation can be suspended by software, just by disabling the DPSM
(SDIO_DCTRL[0] =0) when the ACK of the suspend command is received from the card.
The DPSM enters then the Idle state.
To suspend a read: the DPSM waits in the Wait_r state as the function to be suspended
sends a complete packet just before stopping the data transaction. The application
continues reading RxFIFO until the FIF0 is empty, and the DPSM goes Idle automatically.

20.6.4 SDIO interrupts

SDIO interrupts are detected on the SDIO_D1 line once the SDIO_DCTRL[11] bit is set.

20.7 CE-ATA specific operations

The following features are CE-ATA specific operations:
● sending the command completion signal disable to the CE-ATA device
● receiving the command completion signal from the CE-ATA device
● signaling the completion of the CE-ATA command to the CPU, using the status bit
and/or interrupt.
The SDIO supports these operations only for the CE-ATA CMD61 command, that is, if
SDIO_CMD[14] is set.

20.7.1 Command completion signal disable

Command completion signal disable is sent 8 bit cycles after the reception of a short
response if the ‘enable CMD completion’ bit, SDIO_CMD[12], is not set and the ‘not interrupt
Enable’ bit, SDIO_CMD[13], is set.
The CPSM enters the Pend state, loading the command shift register with the disable
sequence “00001” and, the command counter with 43. Eight cycles after, a trigger moves
the CPSM to the Send state. When the command counter reaches 48, the CPSM becomes
Idle as no response is awaited.

20.7.2 Command completion signal enable

If the ‘enable CMD completion’ bit SDIO_CMD[12] is set and the ‘not interrupt Enable’ bit
SDIO_CMD[13] is set, the CPSM waits for the command completion signal in the Waitcpl
state.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 495/995

Secure digital input/output interface (SDIO) RM0008

When ‘0’ is received on the CMD line, the CPSM enters the Idle state. No new command
can be sent for 7 bit cycles. Then, for the last 5 cycles (out of the 7) the CMD line is driven to
‘1’ in push-pull mode.

20.7.3 CE-ATA interrupt

The command completion is signaled to the CPU by the status bit SDIO_STA[23]. This static
bit can be cleared with the clear bit SDIO_ICR[23].
The SDIO_STA[23] status bit can generate an interrupt on each interrupt line, depending on
the mask bit SDIO_MASKx[23].

20.7.4 Aborting CMD61

If the command completion disable signal has not been sent and CMD61 needs to be
aborted, the command state machine must be disabled. It then becomes Idle, and the
CMD12 command can be sent. No command completion disable signal is sent during the
operation.

20.8 HW flow control

The HW flow control functionality is used to avoid FIFO underrun (TX mode) and overrun
(RX mode) errors.
The behavior is to stop SDIO_CK and freeze SDIO state machines. The data transfer is
stalled while the FIFO is unable to transmit or receive data. Only state machines clocked by
SDIOCLK are frozen, the AHB interface is still alive. The FIFO can thus be filled or emptied
even if flow control is activated.
To enable HW flow control, the SDIO_CLKCR[14] register bit must be set to 1. After reset
Flow Control is disabled.

20.9 SDIO registers

The device communicates to the system via 32-bit-wide control registers accessible via
AHB.

This section applies to the STM32F103xx performance line and STM32F102xx USB access
line families only.

21.1 USB introduction

The USB peripheral implements an interface between a full-speed USB 2.0 bus and the
APB1 bus.
USB suspend/resume are supported which allows to stop the device clocks for low-power
consumption.

21.2 USB main features

● USB specification version 2.0 full-speed compliant
● Configurable number of endpoints from 1 to 8
● Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) generation/checking, Non-return-to-zero Inverted
(NRZI) encoding/decoding and bit-stuffing
● Isochronous transfers support
● Double-buffered bulk/isochronous endpoint support
● USB Suspend/Resume operations
● Frame locked clock pulse generation
Note: The USB and CAN share a dedicated 512-byte SRAM memory for data transmission and
reception, and so they cannot be used concurrently (the shared SRAM is accessed through
CAN and USB exclusively). The USB and CAN can be used in the same application but not
at the same time.

The USB peripheral provides an USB compliant connection between the host PC and the
function implemented by the microcontroller. Data transfer between the host PC and the
system memory occurs through a dedicated packet buffer memory accessed directly by the
USB peripheral. The size of this dedicated buffer memory must be according to the number
of endpoints used and the maximum packet size. This dedicated memory is sized to 512
bytes and up to 16 mono-directional or 8 bidirectional endpoints can be used.The USB
peripheral interfaces with the USB host, detecting token packets, handling data
transmission/reception, and processing handshake packets as required by the USB
standard. Transaction formatting is performed by the hardware, including CRC generation
and checking.
Each endpoint is associated with a buffer description block indicating where the endpoint
related memory area is located, how large it is or how many bytes must be transmitted.
When a token for a valid function/endpoint pair is recognized by the USB peripheral, the
related data transfer (if required and if the endpoint is configured) takes place. The data
buffered by the USB peripheral is loaded in an internal 16 bit register and memory access to
the dedicated buffer is performed. When all the data has been transferred, if needed, the

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 513/995

Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB) RM0008

proper handshake packet over the USB is generated or expected according to the direction
of the transfer.
At the end of the transaction, an endpoint-specific interrupt is generated, reading status
registers and/or using different interrupt response routines. The microcontroller can
determine:
● Which endpoint has to be served
● Which type of transaction took place, if errors occurred (bit stuffing, format, CRC,
protocol, missing ACK, over/underrun, etc.)
Special support is offered to Isochronous transfers and high throughput bulk transfers,
implementing a double buffer usage, which allows to always have an available buffer for the
USB peripheral while the microcontroller uses the other one.
The unit can be placed in low-power mode (SUSPEND mode), by writing in the control
register, whenever required. At this time, all static power dissipation is avoided, and the USB
clock can be slowed down or stopped. The detection of activity at the USB inputs, while in
low-power mode, wakes the device up asynchronously. A special interrupt source can be
connected directly to a wakeup line to allow the system to immediately restart the normal
clock generation and/or support direct clock start/stop.

21.3.1 Description of USB blocks

The USB peripheral implements all the features related to USB interfacing, which include
the following blocks:
● Serial Interface Engine (SIE): The functions of this block include: synchronization
pattern recognition, bit-stuffing, CRC generation and checking, PID
verification/generation, and handshake evaluation. It must interface with the USB
transceivers and uses the virtual buffers provided by the packet buffer interface for local
data storage,. This unit also generates signals according to USB peripheral events,
such as Start of Frame (SOF), USB_Reset, Data errors etc. and to Endpoint related
events like end of transmission or correct reception of a packet; these signals are then
used to generate interrupts.
● Timer: This block generates a start-of-frame locked clock pulse and detects a global
suspend (from the host) when no traffic has been received for 3 ms.
● Packet Buffer Interface: This block manages the local memory implementing a set of
buffers in a flexible way, both for transmission and reception. It can choose the proper
buffer according to requests coming from the SIE and locate them in the memory
addresses pointed by the Endpoint registers. It increments the address after each
exchanged word until the end of packet, keeping track of the number of exchanged
bytes and preventing the buffer to overrun the maximum capacity.
● Endpoint-Related Registers: Each endpoint has an associated register containing the
endpoint type and its current status. For mono-directional/single-buffer endpoints, a
single register can be used to implement two distinct endpoints. The number of
registers is 8, allowing up to 16 mono-directional/single-buffer or up to 7 double-buffer
endpoints* in any combination. For example the USB peripheral can be programmed to
have 4 double buffer endpoints and 8 single-buffer/mono-directional endpoints.

514/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB)

● Control Registers: These are the registers containing information about the status of
the whole USB peripheral and used to force some USB events, such as resume and
power-down.
● Interrupt Registers: These contain the Interrupt masks and a record of the events. They
can be used to inquire an interrupt reason, the interrupt status or to clear the status of a
pending interrupt.
Note: * Endpoint 0 is always used for control transfer in single-buffer mode.
The USB peripheral is connected to the APB1 bus through an APB1 interface, containing
the following blocks:
● Packet Memory: This is the local memory that physically contains the Packet Buffers. It
can be used by the Packet Buffer interface, which creates the data structure and can be
accessed directly by the application software. The size of the Packet Memory is 512
bytes, structured as 256 words by 16 bits.
● Arbiter: This block accepts memory requests coming from the APB1 bus and from the
USB interface. It resolves the conflicts by giving priority to APB1 accesses, while
always reserving half of the memory bandwidth to complete all USB transfers. This
time-duplex scheme implements a virtual dual-port SRAM that allows memory access,
while an USB transaction is happening. Multiword APB1 transfers of any length are
also allowed by this scheme.
● Register Mapper: This block collects the various byte-wide and bit-wide registers of the
USB peripheral in a structured 16-bit wide word set addressed by the APB1.
● APB1 Wrapper: This provides an interface to the APB1 for the memory and register. It
also maps the whole USB peripheral in the APB1 address space.
● Interrupt Mapper: This block is used to select how the possible USB events can
generate interrupts and map them to three different lines of the NVIC:
– USB low-priority interrupt (Channel 20): Triggered by all USB events (Correct
transfer, USB reset, etc.). The firmware has to check the interrupt source before
serving the interrupt.
– USB high-priority interrupt (Channel 19): Triggered only by a correct transfer event
for isochronous and double-buffer bulk transfer to reach the highest possible
transfer rate.
– USB wakeup interrupt (Channel 42): Triggered by the wakeup event from the USB
Suspend mode.

21.4 Programming considerations

In the following sections, the expected interactions between the USB peripheral and the
application program are described, in order to ease application software development.

21.4.1 Generic USB device programming

This part describes the main tasks required of the application software in order to obtain
USB compliant behavior. The actions related to the most general USB events are taken into
account and paragraphs are dedicated to the special cases of double-buffered endpoints
and Isochronous transfers. Apart from system reset, action is always initiated by the USB
peripheral, driven by one of the USB events described below.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 515/995

Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB) RM0008

21.4.2 System and power-on reset

Upon system and power-on reset, the first operation the application software should perform
is to provide all required clock signals to the USB peripheral and subsequently de-assert its
reset signal so to be able to access its registers. The whole initialization sequence is
hereafter described.
As a first step application software needs to activate register macrocell clock and de-assert
macrocell specific reset signal using related control bits provided by device clock
management logic.
After that, the analog part of the device related to the USB transceiver must be switched on
using the PDWN bit in CNTR register, which requires a special handling. This bit is intended
to switch on the internal voltage references that supply the port transceiver. This circuit has
a defined startup time (tSTARTUP specified in the datasheet) during which the behavior of the
USB transceiver is not defined. It is thus necessary to wait this time, after setting the PDWN
bit in the CNTR register, before removing the reset condition on the USB part (by clearing
the FRES bit in the CNTR register). Clearing the ISTR register then removes any spurious
pending interrupt before any other macrocell operation is enabled.
At system reset, the microcontroller must initialize all required registers and the packet
buffer description table, to make the USB peripheral able to properly generate interrupts and
data transfers. All registers not specific to any endpoint must be initialized according to the
needs of application software (choice of enabled interrupts, chosen address of packet
buffers, etc.). Then the process continues as for the USB reset case (see further
paragraph).

USB reset (RESET interrupt)

When this event occurs, the USB peripheral is put in the same conditions it is left by the
system reset after the initialization described in the previous paragraph: communication is
disabled in all endpoint registers (the USB peripheral will not respond to any packet). As a
response to the USB reset event, the USB function must be enabled, having as USB
address 0, implementing only the default control endpoint (endpoint address is 0 too). This
is accomplished by setting the Enable Function (EF) bit of the USB_DADDR register and
initializing the EP0R register and its related packet buffers accordingly. During USB
enumeration process, the host assigns a unique address to this device, which must be
written in the ADD[6:0] bits of the USB_DADDR register, and configures any other
necessary endpoint.
When a RESET interrupt is received, the application software is responsible to enable again
the default endpoint of USB function 0 within 10mS from the end of reset sequence which
triggered the interrupt.

Structure and usage of packet buffers

Each bidirectional endpoint may receive or transmit data from/to the host. The received data
is stored in a dedicated memory buffer reserved for that endpoint, while another memory
buffer contains the data to be transmitted by the endpoint. Access to this memory is
performed by the packet buffer interface block, which delivers a memory access request and
waits for its acknowledgement. Since the packet buffer memory has to be accessed by the
microcontroller also, an arbitration logic takes care of the access conflicts, using half APB1
cycle for microcontroller access and the remaining half for the USB peripheral access. In
this way, both the agents can operate as if the packet memory is a dual-port SRAM, without
being aware of any conflict even when the microcontroller is performing back-to-back
accesses. The USB peripheral logic uses a dedicated clock. The frequency of this dedicated

516/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB)

clock is fixed by the requirements of the USB standard at 48 MHz, and this can be different
from the clock used for the interface to the APB1 bus. Different clock configurations are
possible where the APB1 clock frequency can be higher or lower than the USB peripheral
one.
Note: Due to USB data rate and packet memory interface requirements, the APB1 clock frequency
must be greater than 8 MHz to avoid data overrun/underrun problems.
Each endpoint is associated with two packet buffers (usually one for transmission and the
other one for reception). Buffers can be placed anywhere inside the packet memory
because their location and size is specified in a buffer description table, which is also
located in the packet memory at the address indicated by the USB_BTABLE register. Each
table entry is associated to an endpoint register and it is composed of four 16-bit words so
that table start address must always be aligned to an 8-byte boundary (the lowest three bits
of USB_BTABLE register are always “000”). Buffer descriptor table entries are described in
the Section 21.5.3: Buffer descriptor table. If an endpoint is unidirectional and it is neither an
Isochronous nor a double-buffered bulk, only one packet buffer is required (the one related
to the supported transfer direction). Other table locations related to unsupported transfer
directions or unused endpoints, are available to the user. isochronous and double-buffered
bulk endpoints have special handling of packet buffers (Refer to Section 21.4.4: Isochronous
transfers and Section 21.4.3: Double-buffered endpoints respectively). The relationship
between buffer description table entries and packet buffer areas is depicted in Figure 191.

Each packet buffer is used either during reception or transmission starting from the bottom.
The USB peripheral will never change the contents of memory locations adjacent to the

Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB) RM0008

allocated memory buffers; if a packet bigger than the allocated buffer length is received
(buffer overrun condition) the data will be copied to the memory only up to the last available
location.

Endpoint initialization
The first step to initialize an endpoint is to write appropriate values to the
ADDRn_TX/ADDRn_RX registers so that the USB peripheral finds the data to be
transmitted already available and the data to be received can be buffered. The EP_TYPE
bits in the USB_EPnR register must be set according to the endpoint type, eventually using
the EP_KIND bit to enable any special required feature. On the transmit side, the endpoint
must be enabled using the STAT_TX bits in the USB_EPnR register and COUNTn_TX must
be initialized. For reception, STAT_RX bits must be set to enable reception and
COUNTn_RX must be written with the allocated buffer size using the BL_SIZE and
NUM_BLOCK fields. Unidirectional endpoints, except Isochronous and double-buffered bulk
endpoints, need to initialize only bits and registers related to the supported direction. Once
the transmission and/or reception are enabled, register USB_EPnR and locations
ADDRn_TX/ADDRn_RX, COUNTn_TX/COUNTn_RX (respectively), should not be modified
by the application software, as the hardware can change their value on the fly. When the
data transfer operation is completed, notified by a CTR interrupt event, they can be
accessed again to re-enable a new operation.

IN packets (data transmission)

When receiving an IN token packet, if the received address matches a configured and valid
endpoint one, the USB peripheral accesses the contents of ADDRn_TX and COUNTn_TX
locations inside buffer descriptor table entry related to the addressed endpoint. The content
of these locations is stored in its internal 16 bit registers ADDR and COUNT (not accessible
by software). The packet memory is accessed again to read the first word to be transmitted
(Refer to Structure and usage of packet buffers on page 516) and starts sending a DATA0 or
DATA1 PID according to USB_EPnR bit DTOG_TX. When the PID is completed, the first
byte from the word, read from buffer memory, is loaded into the output shift register to be
transmitted on the USB bus. After the last data byte is transmitted, the computed CRC is
sent. If the addressed endpoint is not valid, a NAK or STALL handshake packet is sent
instead of the data packet, according to STAT_TX bits in the USB_EPnR register.
The ADDR internal register is used as a pointer to the current buffer memory location while
COUNT is used to count the number of remaining bytes to be transmitted. Each word read
from the packet buffer memory is transmitted over the USB bus starting from the least
significant byte. Transmission buffer memory is read starting from the address pointed by
ADDRn_TX for COUNTn_TX/2 words. If a transmitted packet is composed of an odd
number of bytes, only the lower half of the last word accessed will be used.
On receiving the ACK receipt by the host, the USB_EPnR register is updated in the following
way: DTOG_TX bit is toggled, the endpoint is made invalid by setting STAT_TX=10 (NAK)
and bit CTR_TX is set. The application software must first identify the endpoint, which is
requesting microcontroller attention by examining the EP_ID and DIR bits in the USB_ISTR
register. Servicing of the CTR_TX event starts clearing the interrupt bit; the application
software then prepares another buffer full of data to be sent, updates the COUNTn_TX table
location with the number of byte to be transmitted during the next transfer, and finally sets
STAT_TX to ‘11’ (VALID) to re-enable transmissions. While the STAT_TX bits are equal to
‘10’ (NAK), any IN request addressed to that endpoint is NAKed, indicating a flow control
condition: the USB host will retry the transaction until it succeeds. It is mandatory to execute
the sequence of operations in the above mentioned order to avoid losing the notification of a

518/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB)

second IN transaction addressed to the same endpoint immediately following the one which
triggered the CTR interrupt.

OUT and SETUP packets (data reception)

These two tokens are handled by the USB peripheral more or less in the same way; the
differences in the handling of SETUP packets are detailed in the following paragraph about
control transfers. When receiving an OUT/SETUP PID, if the address matches a valid
endpoint, the USB peripheral accesses the contents of the ADDRn_RX and COUNTn_RX
locations inside the buffer descriptor table entry related to the addressed endpoint. The
content of the ADDRn_RX is stored directly in its internal register ADDR. While COUNT is
now reset and the values of BL_SIZE and NUM_BLOCK bit fields, which are read within
COUNTn_RX content are used to initialize BUF_COUNT, an internal 16 bit counter, which is
used to check the buffer overrun condition (all these internal registers are not accessible by
software). Data bytes subsequently received by the USB peripheral are packed in words
(the first byte received is stored as least significant byte) and then transferred to the packet
buffer starting from the address contained in the internal ADDR register while BUF_COUNT
is decremented and COUNT is incremented at each byte transfer. When the end of DATA
packet is detected, the correctness of the received CRC is tested and only if no errors
occurred during the reception, an ACK handshake packet is sent back to the transmitting
host. In case of wrong CRC or other kinds of errors (bit-stuff violations, frame errors, etc.),
data bytes are still copied in the packet memory buffer, at least until the error detection point,
but ACK packet is not sent and the ERR bit in USB_ISTR register is set. However, there is
usually no software action required in this case: the USB peripheral recovers from reception
errors and remains ready for the next transaction to come. If the addressed endpoint is not
valid, a NAK or STALL handshake packet is sent instead of the ACK, according to bits
STAT_RX in the USB_EPnR register and no data is written in the reception memory buffers.
Reception memory buffer locations are written starting from the address contained in the
ADDRn_RX for a number of bytes corresponding to the received data packet length, CRC
included (i.e. data payload length + 2), or up to the last allocated memory location, as
defined by BL_SIZE and NUM_BLOCK, whichever comes first. In this way, the USB
peripheral never writes beyond the end of the allocated reception memory buffer area. If the
length of the data packet payload (actual number of bytes used by the application) is greater
than the allocated buffer, the USB peripheral detects a buffer overrun condition. in this case,
a STALL handshake is sent instead of the usual ACK to notify the problem to the host, no
interrupt is generated and the transaction is considered failed.
When the transaction is completed correctly, by sending the ACK handshake packet, the
internal COUNT register is copied back in the COUNTn_RX location inside the buffer
description table entry, leaving unaffected BL_SIZE and NUM_BLOCK fields, which
normally do not require to be re-written, and the USB_EPnR register is updated in the
following way: DTOG_RX bit is toggled, the endpoint is made invalid by setting STAT_RX =
‘10’ (NAK) and bit CTR_RX is set. If the transaction has failed due to errors or buffer overrun
condition, none of the previously listed actions take place. The application software must
first identify the endpoint, which is requesting microcontroller attention by examining the
EP_ID and DIR bits in the USB_ISTR register. The CTR_RX event is serviced by first
determining the transaction type (SETUP bit in the USB_EPnR register); the application
software must clear the interrupt flag bit and get the number of received bytes reading the
COUNTn_RX location inside the buffer description table entry related to the endpoint being
processed. After the received data is processed, the application software should set the
STAT_RX bits to ‘11’ (Valid) in the USB_EPnR, enabling further transactions. While the
STAT_RX bits are equal to ‘10’ (NAK), any OUT request addressed to that endpoint is
NAKed, indicating a flow control condition: the USB host will retry the transaction until it

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 519/995

Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB) RM0008

succeeds. It is mandatory to execute the sequence of operations in the above mentioned

order to avoid losing the notification of a second OUT transaction addressed to the same
endpoint following immediately the one which triggered the CTR interrupt.

Control transfers
Control transfers are made of a SETUP transaction, followed by zero or more data stages,
all of the same direction, followed by a status stage (a zero-byte transfer in the opposite
direction). SETUP transactions are handled by control endpoints only and are very similar to
OUT ones (data reception) except that the values of DTOG_TX and DTOG_RX bits of the
addressed endpoint registers are set to 1 and 0 respectively, to initialize the control transfer,
and both STAT_TX and STAT_RX are set to ‘10’ (NAK) to let software decide if subsequent
transactions must be IN or OUT depending on the SETUP contents. A control endpoint must
check SETUP bit in the USB_EPnR register at each CTR_RX event to distinguish normal
OUT transactions from SETUP ones. A USB device can determine the number and direction
of data stages by interpreting the data transferred in the SETUP stage, and is required to
STALL the transaction in the case of errors. To do so, at all data stages before the last, the
unused direction should be set to STALL, so that, if the host reverses the transfer direction
too soon, it gets a STALL as a status stage. While enabling the last data stage, the opposite
direction should be set to NAK, so that, if the host reverses the transfer direction (to perform
the status stage) immediately, it is kept waiting for the completion of the control operation. If
the control operation completes successfully, the software will change NAK to VALID,
otherwise to STALL. At the same time, if the status stage will be an OUT, the STATUS_OUT
(EP_KIND in the USB_EPnR register) bit should be set, so that an error is generated if a
status transaction is performed with not-zero data. When the status transaction is serviced,
the application clears the STATUS_OUT bit and sets STAT_RX to VALID (to accept a new
command) and STAT_TX to NAK (to delay a possible status stage immediately following the
next setup).
Since the USB specification states that a SETUP packet cannot be answered with a
handshake different from ACK, eventually aborting a previously issued command to start the
new one, the USB logic doesn’t allow a control endpoint to answer with a NAK or STALL
packet to a SETUP token received from the host.
When the STAT_RX bits are set to ‘01’ (STALL) or ‘10’ (NAK) and a SETUP token is
received, the USB accepts the data, performing the required data transfers and sends back
an ACK handshake. If that endpoint has a previously issued CTR_RX request not yet
acknowledged by the application (i.e. CTR_RX bit is still set from a previously completed
reception), the USB discards the SETUP transaction and does not answer with any
handshake packet regardless of its state, simulating a reception error and forcing the host to
send the SETUP token again. This is done to avoid losing the notification of a SETUP
transaction addressed to the same endpoint immediately following the transaction, which
triggered the CTR_RX interrupt.

21.4.3 Double-buffered endpoints

All different endpoint types defined by the USB standard represent different traffic models,
and describe the typical requirements of different kind of data transfer operations. When
large portions of data are to be transferred between the host PC and the USB function, the
bulk endpoint type is the most suited model. This is because the host schedules bulk
transactions so as to fill all the available bandwidth in the frame, maximizing the actual
transfer rate as long as the USB function is ready to handle a bulk transaction addressed to
it. If the USB function is still busy with the previous transaction when the next one arrives, it
will answer with a NAK handshake and the host PC will issue the same transaction again
until the USB function is ready to handle it, reducing the actual transfer rate due to the
bandwidth occupied by re-transmissions. For this reason, a dedicated feature called
‘double-buffering’ can be used with bulk endpoints.
When ‘double-buffering’ is activated, data toggle sequencing is used to select, which buffer
is to be used by the USB peripheral to perform the required data transfers, using both
‘transmission’ and ‘reception’ packet memory areas to manage buffer swapping on each
successful transaction in order to always have a complete buffer to be used by the
application, while the USB peripheral fills the other one. For example, during an OUT
transaction directed to a ‘reception’ double-buffered bulk endpoint, while one buffer is being
filled with new data coming from the USB host, the other one is available for the
microcontroller software usage (the same would happen with a ‘transmission’ double-
buffered bulk endpoint and an IN transaction).
Since the swapped buffer management requires the usage of all 4 buffer description table
locations hosting the address pointer and the length of the allocated memory buffers, the
USB_EPnR registers used to implement double-buffered bulk endpoints are forced to be
used as unidirectional ones. Therefore, only one STAT bit pair must be set at a value
different from ‘00’ (Disabled): STAT_RX if the double-buffered bulk endpoint is enabled for
reception, STAT_TX if the double-buffered bulk endpoint is enabled for transmission. In case
it is required to have double-buffered bulk endpoints enabled both for reception and
transmission, two USB_EPnR registers must be used.
To exploit the double-buffering feature and reach the highest possible transfer rate, the
endpoint flow control structure, described in previous chapters, has to be modified, in order
to switch the endpoint status to NAK only when a buffer conflict occurs between the USB
peripheral and application software, instead of doing it at the end of each successful
transaction. The memory buffer which is currently being used by the USB peripheral is
defined by the DTOG bit related to the endpoint direction: DTOG_RX (bit 14 of USB_EPnR
register) for ‘reception’ double-buffered bulk endpoints or DTOG_TX (bit 6 of USB_EPnR
register) for ‘transmission’ double-buffered bulk endpoints. To implement the new flow
control scheme, the USB peripheral should know which packet buffer is currently in use by
the application software, so to be aware of any conflict. Since in the USB_EPnR register,
there are two DTOG bits but only one is used by USB peripheral for data and buffer
sequencing (due to the unidirectional constraint required by double-buffering feature) the
other one can be used by the application software to show which buffer it is currently using.
This new buffer flag is called SW_BUF. In the following table the correspondence between
USB_EPnR register bits and DTOG/SW_BUF definition is explained, for the cases of
‘transmission’ and ‘reception’ double-buffered bulk endpoints.

same in both cases, and it is listed in the following table.

1. Endpoint in NAK Status.

Double-buffering feature for a bulk endpoint is activated by:

● Writing EP_TYPE bit field at ‘00’ in its USB_EPnR register, to define the endpoint as a
bulk, and
● Setting EP_KIND bit at ‘1’ (DBL_BUF), in the same register.
The application software is responsible for DTOG and SW_BUF bits initialization according
to the first buffer to be used; this has to be done considering the special toggle-only property
that these two bits have. The end of the first transaction occurring after having set
DBL_BUF, triggers the special flow control of double-buffered bulk endpoints, which is used
for all other transactions addressed to this endpoint until DBL_BUF remain set. At the end of
each transaction the CTR_RX or CTR_TX bit of the addressed endpoint USB_EPnR
register is set, depending on the enabled direction. At the same time, the affected DTOG bit
in the USB_EPnR register is hardware toggled making the USB peripheral buffer swapping
completely software independent. Unlike common transactions, and the first one after

522/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB)

DBL_BUF setting, STAT bit pair is not affected by the transaction termination and its value
remains ‘11’ (Valid). However, as the token packet of a new transaction is received, the
actual endpoint status will be masked as ‘10’ (NAK) when a buffer conflict between the USB
peripheral and the application software is detected (this condition is identified by DTOG and
SW_BUF having the same value, see Table 153 on page 522). The application software
responds to the CTR event notification by clearing the interrupt flag and starting any
required handling of the completed transaction. When the application packet buffer usage is
over, the software toggles the SW_BUF bit, writing ‘1’ to it, to notify the USB peripheral
about the availability of that buffer. In this way, the number of NAKed transactions is limited
only by the application elaboration time of a transaction data: if the elaboration time is
shorter than the time required to complete a transaction on the USB bus, no re-
transmissions due to flow control will take place and the actual transfer rate will be limited
only by the host PC.
The application software can always override the special flow control implemented for
double-buffered bulk endpoints, writing an explicit status different from ‘11’ (Valid) into the
STAT bit pair of the related USB_EPnR register. In this case, the USB peripheral will always
use the programmed endpoint status, regardless of the buffer usage condition.

21.4.4 Isochronous transfers

The USB standard supports full speed peripherals requiring a fixed and accurate data
production/consume frequency, defining this kind of traffic as ‘Isochronous’. Typical
examples of this data are: audio samples, compressed video streams, and in general any
sort of sampled data having strict requirements for the accuracy of delivered frequency.
When an endpoint is defined to be ‘isochronous’ during the enumeration phase, the host
allocates in the frame the required bandwidth and delivers exactly one IN or OUT packet
each frame, depending on endpoint direction. To limit the bandwidth requirements, no re-
transmission of failed transactions is possible for Isochronous traffic; this leads to the fact
that an isochronous transaction does not have a handshake phase and no ACK packet is
expected or sent after the data packet. For the same reason, Isochronous transfers do not
support data toggle sequencing and always use DATA0 PID to start any data packet.
The Isochronous behavior for an endpoint is selected by setting the EP_TYPE bits at ‘10’ in
its USB_EPnR register; since there is no handshake phase the only legal values for the
STAT_RX/STAT_TX bit pairs are ‘00’ (Disabled) and ‘11’ (Valid), any other value will produce
results not compliant to USB standard. Isochronous endpoints implement double-buffering
to ease application software development, using both ‘transmission’ and ‘reception’ packet
memory areas to manage buffer swapping on each successful transaction in order to have
always a complete buffer to be used by the application, while the USB peripheral fills the
other.
The memory buffer which is currently used by the USB peripheral is defined by the DTOG
bit related to the endpoint direction (DTOG_RX for ‘reception’ isochronous endpoints,
DTOG_TX for ‘transmission’ isochronous endpoints, both in the related USB_EPnR
register) according to Table 154.

As it happens with double-buffered bulk endpoints, the USB_EPnR registers used to

implement Isochronous endpoints are forced to be used as unidirectional ones. In case it is
required to have Isochronous endpoints enabled both for reception and transmission, two
USB_EPnR registers must be used.
The application software is responsible for the DTOG bit initialization according to the first
buffer to be used; this has to be done considering the special toggle-only property that these
two bits have. At the end of each transaction, the CTR_RX or CTR_TX bit of the addressed
endpoint USB_EPnR register is set, depending on the enabled direction. At the same time,
the affected DTOG bit in the USB_EPnR register is hardware toggled making buffer
swapping completely software independent. STAT bit pair is not affected by transaction
completion; since no flow control is possible for Isochronous transfers due to the lack of
handshake phase, the endpoint remains always ‘11’ (Valid). CRC errors or buffer-overrun
conditions occurring during Isochronous OUT transfers are anyway considered as correct
transactions and they always trigger an CTR_RX event. However, CRC errors will anyway
set the ERR bit in the USB_ISTR register to notify the software of the possible data
corruption.

21.4.5 Suspend/Resume events

The USB standard defines a special peripheral state, called SUSPEND, in which the
average current drawn from the USB bus must not be greater than 500 A. This requirement
is of fundamental importance for bus-powered devices, while self-powered devices are not
required to comply to this strict power consumption constraint. In suspend mode, the host
PC sends the notification to not send any traffic on the USB bus for more than 3mS: since a
SOF packet must be sent every mS during normal operations, the USB peripheral detects
the lack of 3 consecutive SOF packets as a suspend request from the host PC and set the
SUSP bit to ‘1’ in USB_ISTR register, causing an interrupt if enabled. Once the device is
suspended, its normal operation can be restored by a so called RESUME sequence, which
can be started from the host PC or directly from the peripheral itself, but it is always
terminated by the host PC. The suspended USB peripheral must be anyway able to detect a
RESET sequence, reacting to this event as a normal USB reset event.

524/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB)

The actual procedure used to suspend the USB peripheral is device dependent since
according to the device composition, different actions may be required to reduce the total
consumption.
A brief description of a typical suspend procedure is provided below, focused on the USB-
related aspects of the application software routine responding to the SUSP notification of
the USB peripheral:
1. Set the FSUSP bit in the USB_CNTR register to 1. This action activates the suspend
mode within the USB peripheral. As soon as the suspend mode is activated, the check
on SOF reception is disabled to avoid any further SUSP interrupts being issued while
the USB is suspended.
2. Remove or reduce any static power consumption in blocks different from the USB
peripheral.
3. Set LP_MODE bit in USB_CNTR register to 1 to remove static power consumption in
the analog USB transceivers but keeping them able to detect resume activity.
4. Optionally turn off external oscillator and device PLL to stop any activity inside the
device.
When an USB event occurs while the device is in SUSPEND mode, the RESUME procedure
must be invoked to restore nominal clocks and regain normal USB behavior. Particular care
must be taken to insure that this process does not take more than 10mS when the wakening
event is an USB reset sequence (See “Universal Serial Bus Specification” for more details).
The start of a resume or reset sequence, while the USB peripheral is suspended, clears the
LP_MODE bit in USB_CNTR register asynchronously. Even if this event can trigger an
WKUP interrupt if enabled, the use of an interrupt response routine must be carefully
evaluated because of the long latency due to system clock restart; to have the shorter
latency before re-activating the nominal clock it is suggested to put the resume procedure
just after the end of the suspend one, so its code is immediately executed as soon as the
system clock restarts. To prevent ESD discharges or any other kind of noise from waking-up
the system (the exit from suspend mode is an asynchronous event), a suitable analog filter
on data line status is activated during suspend; the filter width is about 70ns.
The following is a list of actions a resume procedure should address:
1. Optionally turn on external oscillator and/or device PLL.
2. Clear FSUSP bit of USB_CNTR register.
3. If the resume triggering event has to be identified, bits RXDP and RXDM in the
USB_FNR register can be used according to Table 155, which also lists the intended
software action in all the cases. If required, the end of resume or reset sequence can
be detected monitoring the status of the above mentioned bits by checking when they
reach the “10” configuration, which represent the Idle bus state; moreover at the end of
a reset sequence the RESET bit in USB_ISTR register is set to 1, issuing an interrupt if
enabled, which should be handled as usual.

Table 155. Resume event detection

[RXDP,RXDM] status Wakeup event Required resume software action

“00” Root reset None

“10” None (noise on bus) Go back in Suspend mode
“01” Root resume None
“11” Not allowed (noise on bus) Go back in Suspend mode

Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB) RM0008

A device may require to exit from suspend mode as an answer to particular events not
directly related to the USB protocol (e.g. a mouse movement wakes up the whole system).
In this case, the resume sequence can be started by setting the RESUME bit in the
USB_CNTR register to ‘1’ and resetting it to 0 after an interval between 1mS and 15mS (this
interval can be timed using ESOF interrupts, occurring with a 1mS period when the system
clock is running at nominal frequency). Once the RESUME bit is clear, the resume
sequence will be completed by the host PC and its end can be monitored again using the
RXDP and RXDM bits in the USB_FNR register.
Note: The RESUME bit must be anyway used only after the USB peripheral has been put in
suspend mode, setting the FSUSP bit in USB_CNTR register to 1.

21.5 USB registers

The USB peripheral registers can be divided into the following groups:
● Common Registers: Interrupt and Control registers
● Endpoint Registers: Endpoint configuration and status
● Buffer Descriptor Table: Location of packet memory used to locate data buffers
All register addresses are expressed as offsets with respect to the USB peripheral registers
base address 0x4000 5C00, except the buffer descriptor table locations, which starts at the
address specified by the USB_BTABLE register. Due to the common limitation of APB1
bridges on word addressability, all register addresses are aligned to 32-bit word boundaries
although they are 16-bit wide. The same address alignment is used to access packet buffer
memory locations, which are located starting from 0x4000 6000.
Refer to Section 1.1 on page 37 for a list of abbreviations used in register descriptions.

21.5.1 Common registers

These registers affect the general behavior of the USB peripheral defining operating mode,
interrupt handling, device address and giving access to the current frame number updated
by the host PC.

Bit 4 RESUME: Resume request
The microcontroller can set this bit to send a Resume signal to the host. It must be
activated, according to USB specifications, for no less than 1mS and no more than 15mS
after which the Host PC is ready to drive the resume sequence up to its end.
Bit 3 FSUSP: Force suspend
Software must set this bit when the SUSP interrupt is received, which is issued when no
traffic is received by the USB peripheral for 3 mS.

1: Enter suspend mode. Clocks and static power dissipation in the analog transceiver are
left unaffected. If suspend power consumption is a requirement (bus-powered device), the
application software should set the LP_MODE bit after FSUSP as explained below.
Bit 2 LP_MODE: Low-power mode
This mode is used when the suspend-mode power constraints require that all static power
dissipation is avoided, except the one required to supply the external pull-up resistor. This
condition should be entered when the application is ready to stop all system clocks, or
reduce their frequency in order to meet the power consumption requirements of the USB
suspend condition. The USB activity during the suspend mode (WKUP event)
asynchronously resets this bit (it can also be reset by software).
0: No Low-power mode.
1: Enter Low-power mode.

Bit 1 PDWN: Power down

This bit is used to completely switch off all USB-related analog parts if it is required to
completely disable the USB peripheral for any reason. When this bit is set, the USB
peripheral is disconnected from the transceivers and it cannot be used.

This register contains the status of all the interrupt sources allowing application software to
determine, which events caused an interrupt request.
The upper part of this register contains single bits, each of them representing a specific
event. These bits are set by the hardware when the related event occurs; if the
corresponding bit in the USB_CNTR register is set, a generic interrupt request is generated.
The interrupt routine, examining each bit, will perform all necessary actions, and finally it will
clear the serviced bits. If any of them is not cleared, the interrupt is considered to be still
pending, and the interrupt line will be kept high again. If several bits are set simultaneously,
only a single interrupt will be generated.
Endpoint transaction completion can be handled in a different way to reduce interrupt
response latency. The CTR bit is set by the hardware as soon as an endpoint successfully
completes a transaction, generating a generic interrupt request if the corresponding bit in
USB_CNTR is set. An endpoint dedicated interrupt condition is activated independently
from the CTRM bit in the USB_CNTR register. Both interrupt conditions remain active until
software clears the pending bit in the corresponding USB_EPnR register (the CTR bit is
actually a read only bit). For endpoint-related interrupts, the software can use the Direction
of Transaction (DIR) and EP_ID read-only bits to identify, which endpoint made the last
interrupt request and called the corresponding interrupt service routine.
The user can choose the relative priority of simultaneously pending USB_ISTR events by
specifying the order in which software checks USB_ISTR bits in an interrupt service routine.
Only the bits related to events, which are serviced, are cleared. At the end of the service
routine, another interrupt will be requested, to service the remaining conditions.
To avoid spurious clearing of some bits, it is recommended to clear them with a load
instruction where all bits which must not be altered are written with 1, and all bits to be
cleared are written with ‘0’ (these bits can only be cleared by software). Read-modify-write
cycles should be avoided because between the read and the write operations another bit

528/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB)

could be set by the hardware and the next write will clear it before the microprocessor has
the time to serve the event.
The following describes each bit in detail:

Bit 15 CTR: Correct transfer

This bit is set by the hardware to indicate that an endpoint has successfully completed a
transaction; using DIR and EP_ID bits software can determine which endpoint requested the
interrupt. This bit is read-only.
Bit 14 PMAOVR: Packet memory area over / underrun
This bit is set if the microcontroller has not been able to respond in time to an USB memory
request. The USB peripheral handles this event in the following way: During reception an
ACK handshake packet is not sent, during transmission a bit-stuff error is forced on the
transmitted stream; in both cases the host will retry the transaction. The PMAOVR interrupt
should never occur during normal operations. Since the failed transaction is retried by the
host, the application software has the chance to speed-up device operations during this
interrupt handling, to be ready for the next transaction retry; however this does not happen
during Isochronous transfers (no isochronous transaction is anyway retried) leading to a loss
of data in this case. This bit is read/write but only ‘0’ can be written and writing ‘1’ has no
effect.
Bit 13 ERR: Error
This flag is set whenever one of the errors listed below has occurred:
NANS: No ANSwer. The timeout for a host response has expired.
CRC: Cyclic Redundancy Check error. One of the received CRCs, either in the token or in
the data, was wrong.
BST: Bit Stuffing error. A bit stuffing error was detected anywhere in the PID, data, and/or
CRC.
FVIO: Framing format Violation. A non-standard frame was received (EOP not in the right
place, wrong token sequence, etc.).
The USB software can usually ignore errors, since the USB peripheral and the PC host
manage retransmission in case of errors in a fully transparent way. This interrupt can be
useful during the software development phase, or to monitor the quality of transmission over
the USB bus, to flag possible problems to the user (e.g. loose connector, too noisy
environment, broken conductor in the USB cable and so on). This bit is read/write but only ‘0’
can be written and writing ‘1’ has no effect.
Bit 12 WKUP: Wakeup
This bit is set to 1 by the hardware when, during suspend mode, activity is detected that
wakes up the USB peripheral. This event asynchronously clears the LP_MODE bit in the
CTLR register and activates the USB_WAKEUP line, which can be used to notify the rest of
the device (e.g. wakeup unit) about the start of the resume process. This bit is read/write but
only ‘0’ can be written and writing ‘1’ has no effect.
Bit 11 SUSP: Suspend mode request
This bit is set by the hardware when no traffic has been received for 3mS, indicating a
suspend mode request from the USB bus. The suspend condition check is enabled
immediately after any USB reset and it is disabled by the hardware when the suspend mode
is active (FSUSP=1) until the end of resume sequence. This bit is read/write but only ‘0’ can
be written and writing ‘1’ has no effect.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 529/995

Universal serial bus full-speed device interface (USB) RM0008

Bit 10 RESET: USB reset request

Set when the USB peripheral detects an active USB RESET signal at its inputs. The USB
peripheral, in response to a RESET, just resets its internal protocol state machine,
generating an interrupt if RESETM enable bit in the USB_CNTR register is set. Reception
and transmission are disabled until the RESET bit is cleared. All configuration registers do
not reset: the microcontroller must explicitly clear these registers (this is to ensure that the
RESET interrupt can be safely delivered, and any transaction immediately followed by a
RESET can be completed). The function address and endpoint registers are reset by an
USB reset event.
This bit is read/write but only ‘0’ can be written and writing ‘1’ has no effect.
Bit 9 SOF: Start of frame
This bit signals the beginning of a new USB frame and it is set when a SOF packet arrives
through the USB bus. The interrupt service routine may monitor the SOF events to have a
1mS synchronization event to the USB host and to safely read the USB_FNR register which
is updated at the SOF packet reception (this could be useful for isochronous applications).
This bit is read/write but only ‘0’ can be written and writing ‘1’ has no effect.
Bit 8 ESOF: Expected start of frame
This bit is set by the hardware when an SOF packet is expected but not received. The host
sends an SOF packet each mS, but if the hub does not receive it properly, the Suspend
Timer issues this interrupt. If three consecutive ESOF interrupts are generated (i.e. three
SOF packets are lost) without any traffic occurring in between, a SUSP interrupt is
generated. This bit is set even when the missing SOF packets occur while the Suspend
Timer is not yet locked. This bit is read/write but only ‘0’ can be written and writing ‘1’ has no
effect.
Bits 7:5 Reserved.
Bit 4 DIR: Direction of transaction
This bit is written by the hardware according to the direction of the successful transaction,
which generated the interrupt request.
If DIR bit=0, CTR_TX bit is set in the USB_EPnR register related to the interrupting endpoint.
The interrupting transaction is of IN type (data transmitted by the USB peripheral to the host
PC).
If DIR bit=1, CTR_RX bit or both CTR_TX/CTR_RX are set in the USB_EPnR register
related to the interrupting endpoint. The interrupting transaction is of OUT type (data
received by the USB peripheral from the host PC) or two pending transactions are waiting to
be processed.
This information can be used by the application software to access the USB_EPnR bits
related to the triggering transaction since it represents the direction having the interrupt
pending. This bit is read-only.
Bits 3:0 EP_ID[3:0]: Endpoint Identifier
These bits are written by the hardware according to the endpoint number, which generated
the interrupt request. If several endpoint transactions are pending, the hardware writes the
endpoint identifier related to the endpoint having the highest priority defined in the following
way: Two endpoint sets are defined, in order of priority: Isochronous and double-buffered
bulk endpoints are considered first and then the other endpoints are examined. If more than
one endpoint from the same set is requesting an interrupt, the EP_ID bits in USB_ISTR
register are assigned according to the lowest requesting endpoint register, EP0R having the
highest priority followed by EP1R and so on. The application software can assign a register
to each endpoint according to this priority scheme, so as to order the concurring endpoint
requests in a suitable way. These bits are read only.

irrespective of the settings of USB_EPnR registers.

Bits 6:0 ADD[6:0]: Device address

These bits contain the USB function address assigned by the host PC during the
enumeration process. Both this field and the Endpoint Address (EA) field in the associated
USB_EPnR register must match with the information contained in a USB token in order to
handle a transaction to the required endpoint.

Bits 15:3 BTABLE[15:3]: Buffer table

These bits contain the start address of the buffer allocation table inside the dedicated packet
memory. This table describes each endpoint buffer location and size and it must be aligned
to an 8 byte boundary (the 3 least significant bits are always ‘0’). At the beginning of every
transaction addressed to this device, the USP peripheral reads the element of this table
related to the addressed endpoint, to get its buffer start location and the buffer size (Refer to
Structure and usage of packet buffers on page 516).
Bits 2:0 Reserved, forced by hardware to 0.

21.5.2 Endpoint-specific registers

The number of these registers varies according to the number of endpoints that the USB
peripheral is designed to handle. The USB peripheral supports up to 8 bidirectional
endpoints. Each USB device must support a control endpoint whose address (EA bits) must
be set to 0. The USB peripheral behaves in an undefined way if multiple endpoints are
enabled having the same endpoint number value. For each endpoint, an USB_EPnR
register is available to store the endpoint specific information.

They are also reset when an USB reset is received from the USB bus or forced through bit
FRES in the CTLR register, except the CTR_RX and CTR_TX bits, which are kept
unchanged to avoid missing a correct packet notification immediately followed by an USB
reset event. Each endpoint has its USB_EPnR register where n is the endpoint identifier.

Read-modify-write cycles on these registers should be avoided because between the read
and the write operations some bits could be set by the hardware and the next write would
modify them before the CPU has the time to detect the change. For this purpose, all bits
affected by this problem have an ‘invariant’ value that must be used whenever their
modification is not required. It is recommended to modify these registers with a load
instruction where all the bits, which can be modified only by the hardware, are written with
their ‘invariant’ value.

Bit 15 CTR_RX: Correct Transfer for reception

This bit is set by the hardware when an OUT/SETUP transaction is successfully completed
on this endpoint; the software can only clear this bit. If the CTRM bit in USB_CNTR register
is set accordingly, a generic interrupt condition is generated together with the endpoint
related interrupt condition, which is always activated. The type of occurred transaction, OUT
or SETUP, can be determined from the SETUP bit described below.
A transaction ended with a NAK or STALL handshake does not set this bit, since no data is
actually transferred, as in the case of protocol errors or data toggle mismatches.
This bit is read/write but only ‘0’ can be written, writing 1 has no effect.
Bit 14 DTOG_RX: Data Toggle, for reception transfers
If the endpoint is not Isochronous, this bit contains the expected value of the data toggle bit
(0=DATA0, 1=DATA1) for the next data packet to be received. Hardware toggles this bit,
when the ACK handshake is sent to the USB host, following a data packet reception having
a matching data PID value; if the endpoint is defined as a control one, hardware clears this
bit at the reception of a SETUP PID addressed to this endpoint.
If the endpoint is using the double-buffering feature this bit is used to support packet buffer
swapping too (Refer to Section 21.4.3: Double-buffered endpoints).
If the endpoint is Isochronous, this bit is used only to support packet buffer swapping since
no data toggling is used for this sort of endpoints and only DATA0 packet are transmitted
(Refer to Section 21.4.4: Isochronous transfers). Hardware toggles this bit just after the end
of data packet reception, since no handshake is used for isochronous transfers.
This bit can also be toggled by the software to initialize its value (mandatory when the
endpoint is not a control one) or to force specific data toggle/packet buffer usage. When the
application software writes ‘0’, the value of DTOG_RX remains unchanged, while writing ‘1’
makes the bit value toggle. This bit is read/write but it can be only toggled by writing 1.
Bits 13:12 STAT_RX [1:0]: Status bits, for reception transfers
These bits contain information about the endpoint status, which are listed in Table 156:
Reception status encoding on page 535.These bits can be toggled by software to initialize
their value. When the application software writes ‘0’, the value remains unchanged, while
writing ‘1’ makes the bit value toggle. Hardware sets the STAT_RX bits to NAK when a
correct transfer has occurred (CTR_RX=1) corresponding to a OUT or SETUP (control only)
transaction addressed to this endpoint, so the software has the time to elaborate the
received data before it acknowledge a new transaction
Double-buffered bulk endpoints implement a special transaction flow control, which control
the status based upon buffer availability condition (Refer to Section 21.4.3: Double-buffered
endpoints).
If the endpoint is defined as Isochronous, its status can be only “VALID” or “DISABLED”, so
that the hardware cannot change the status of the endpoint after a successful transaction. If
the software sets the STAT_RX bits to ‘STALL’ or ‘NAK’ for an Isochronous endpoint, the
USB peripheral behavior is not defined. These bits are read/write but they can be only
toggled by writing ‘1’.

Bit 11 SETUP: Setup transaction completed

This bit is read-only and it is set by the hardware when the last completed transaction is a
SETUP. This bit changes its value only for control endpoints. It must be examined, in the
case of a successful receive transaction (CTR_RX event), to determine the type of
transaction occurred. To protect the interrupt service routine from the changes in SETUP
bits due to next incoming tokens, this bit is kept frozen while CTR_RX bit is at 1; its state
changes when CTR_RX is at 0. This bit is read-only.
Bits 10:9 EP_TYPE[1:0]: Endpoint type
These bits configure the behavior of this endpoint as described in Table 157: Endpoint type
encoding on page 535. Endpoint 0 must always be a control endpoint and each USB
function must have at least one control endpoint which has address 0, but there may be
other control endpoints if required. Only control endpoints handle SETUP transactions,
which are ignored by endpoints of other kinds. SETUP transactions cannot be answered
with NAK or STALL. If a control endpoint is defined as NAK, the USB peripheral will not
answer, simulating a receive error, in the receive direction when a SETUP transaction is
received. If the control endpoint is defined as STALL in the receive direction, then the
SETUP packet will be accepted anyway, transferring data and issuing the CTR interrupt.
The reception of OUT transactions is handled in the normal way, even if the endpoint is a
control one.
Bulk and interrupt endpoints have very similar behavior and they differ only in the special
feature available using the EP_KIND configuration bit.
The usage of Isochronous endpoints is explained in Section 21.4.4: Isochronous transfers
Bit 8 EP_KIND: Endpoint kind
The meaning of this bit depends on the endpoint type configured by the EP_TYPE bits.
Table 158 summarizes the different meanings.
DBL_BUF: This bit is set by the software to enable the double-buffering feature for this bulk
endpoint. The usage of double-buffered bulk endpoints is explained in Section 21.4.3:
Double-buffered endpoints.
STATUS_OUT: This bit is set by the software to indicate that a status out transaction is
expected: in this case all OUT transactions containing more than zero data bytes are
answered ‘STALL’ instead of ‘ACK’. This bit may be used to improve the robustness of the
application to protocol errors during control transfers and its usage is intended for control
endpoints only. When STATUS_OUT is reset, OUT transactions can have any number of
bytes, as required.
Bit 7 CTR_TX: Correct Transfer for transmission
This bit is set by the hardware when an IN transaction is successfully completed on this
endpoint; the software can only clear this bit. If the CTRM bit in the USB_CNTR register is
set accordingly, a generic interrupt condition is generated together with the endpoint related
interrupt condition, which is always activated.
A transaction ended with a NAK or STALL handshake does not set this bit, since no data is
actually transferred, as in the case of protocol errors or data toggle mismatches.
This bit is read/write but only ‘0’ can be written.

Bit 6 DTOG_TX: Data Toggle, for transmission transfers

If the endpoint is non-isochronous, this bit contains the required value of the data toggle bit
(0=DATA0, 1=DATA1) for the next data packet to be transmitted. Hardware toggles this bit
when the ACK handshake is received from the USB host, following a data packet
transmission. If the endpoint is defined as a control one, hardware sets this bit to 1 at the
reception of a SETUP PID addressed to this endpoint.
If the endpoint is using the double buffer feature, this bit is used to support packet buffer
swapping too (Refer to Section 21.4.3: Double-buffered endpoints)
If the endpoint is Isochronous, this bit is used to support packet buffer swapping since no
data toggling is used for this sort of endpoints and only DATA0 packet are transmitted (Refer
to Section 21.4.4: Isochronous transfers). Hardware toggles this bit just after the end of data
packet transmission, since no handshake is used for Isochronous transfers.
This bit can also be toggled by the software to initialize its value (mandatory when the
endpoint is not a control one) or to force a specific data toggle/packet buffer usage. When
the application software writes ‘0’, the value of DTOG_TX remains unchanged, while writing
‘1’ makes the bit value toggle. This bit is read/write but it can only be toggled by writing 1.
Bits 5:4 STAT_TX [1:0]: Status bits, for transmission transfers
These bits contain the information about the endpoint status, listed in Table 159. These bits
can be toggled by the software to initialize their value. When the application software writes
‘0’, the value remains unchanged, while writing ‘1’ makes the bit value toggle. Hardware
sets the STAT_TX bits to NAK, when a correct transfer has occurred (CTR_TX=1)
corresponding to a IN or SETUP (control only) transaction addressed to this endpoint. It
then waits for the software to prepare the next set of data to be transmitted.
Double-buffered bulk endpoints implement a special transaction flow control, which controls
the status based on buffer availability condition (Refer to Section 21.4.3: Double-buffered
endpoints).
If the endpoint is defined as Isochronous, its status can only be “VALID” or “DISABLED”.
Therefore, the hardware cannot change the status of the endpoint after a successful
transaction. If the software sets the STAT_TX bits to ‘STALL’ or ‘NAK’ for an Isochronous
endpoint, the USB peripheral behavior is not defined. These bits are read/write but they can
be only toggled by writing ‘1’.
Bits 3:0 EA[3:0]: Endpoint address
Software must write in this field the 4-bit address used to identify the transactions directed
to this endpoint. A value must be written before enabling the corresponding endpoint.

21.5.3 Buffer descriptor table

Although the buffer descriptor table is located inside the packet buffer memory, its entries
can be considered as additional registers used to configure the location and size of the
packet buffers used to exchange data between the USB macro cell and the STM32F10xxx.
Due to the common APB bridge limitation on word addressability, all packet memory
locations are accessed by the APB using 32-bit aligned addresses, instead of the actual
memory location addresses utilized by the USB peripheral for the USB_BTABLE register
and buffer description table locations.
In the following pages two location addresses are reported: the one to be used by
application software while accessing the packet memory, and the local one relative to USB
Peripheral access. To obtain the correct STM32F10xxx memory address value to be used in
the application software while accessing the packet memory, the actual memory location
address must be multiplied by two. The first packet memory location is located at
0x4000 6000. The buffer descriptor table entry associated with the USB_EPnR registers is
described below.
A thorough explanation of packet buffers and the buffer descriptor table usage can be found
in Structure and usage of packet buffers on page 516.

This table location is used to store two different values, both required during packet
reception. The most significant bits contains the definition of allocated buffer size, to allow
buffer overflow detection, while the least significant part of this location is written back by the
USB peripheral at the end of reception to give the actual number of received bytes. Due to
the restrictions on the number of available bits, buffer size is represented using the number
of allocated memory blocks, where block size can be selected to choose the trade-off
between fine-granularity/small-buffer and coarse-granularity/large-buffer. The size of
allocated buffer is a part of the endpoint descriptor and it is normally defined during the
enumeration process according to its maxPacketSize parameter value (See “Universal
Serial Bus Specification”).

Bit 15 BL_SIZE: BLock size

This bit selects the size of memory block used to define the allocated buffer area.
– If BL_SIZE=0, the memory block is 2 byte large, which is the minimum block allowed in a
word-wide memory. With this block size the allocated buffer size ranges from 2 to 62 bytes.
– If BL_SIZE=1, the memory block is 32 byte large, which allows to reach the maximum
packet length defined by USB specifications. With this block size the allocated buffer size
ranges from 32 to 1024 bytes, which is the longest packet size allowed by USB standard
specifications.
Bits 14:10 NUM_BLOCK[4:0]: Number of blocks
These bits define the number of memory blocks allocated to this packet buffer. The actual
amount of allocated memory depends on the BL_SIZE value as illustrated in Table 160.

22.3 bxCAN general description

In today’s CAN applications, the number of nodes in a network is increasing and often
several networks are linked together via gateways. Typically the number of messages in the
system (and thus to be handled by each node) has significantly increased. In addition to the
application messages, Network Management and Diagnostic messages have been
introduced.
● An enhanced filtering mechanism is required to handle each type of message.
Furthermore, application tasks require more CPU time, therefore real-time constraints
caused by message reception have to be reduced.
● A receive FIFO scheme allows the CPU to be dedicated to application tasks for a long
time period without losing messages.
The standard HLP (Higher Layer Protocol) based on standard CAN drivers requires an
efficient interface to the CAN controller.

22.3.1 CAN 2.0B active core

The bxCAN module handles the transmission and the reception of CAN messages fully
autonomously. Standard identifiers (11-bit) and extended identifiers (29-bit) are fully
supported by hardware.

22.3.2 Control, status and configuration registers

The application uses these registers to:
● Configure CAN parameters, e.g. baud rate
● Request transmissions
● Handle receptions
● Manage interrupts
● Get diagnostic information

22.3.3 Tx mailboxes
Three transmit mailboxes are provided to the software for setting up messages. The
transmission Scheduler decides which mailbox has to be transmitted first.

22.3.4 Acceptance filters

In Connectivity line devices the bxCAN provides 28 scalable/configurable identifier filter
banks for selecting the incoming messages the software needs and discarding the others. In
other devices there are 14 scalable/configurable identifier filter banks.

Receive FIFO
Two receive FIFOs are used by hardware to store the incoming messages. Three complete
messages can be stored in each FIFO. The FIFOs are managed completely by hardware.

22.4 bxCAN operating modes

bxCAN has three main operating modes: initialization, normal and Sleep. After a
hardware reset, bxCAN is in Sleep mode to reduce power consumption and an internal pull-
up is active on CANTX. The software requests bxCAN to enter initialization or Sleep mode
by setting the INRQ or SLEEP bits in the CAN_MCR register. Once the mode has been
entered, bxCAN confirms it by setting the INAK or SLAK bits in the CAN_MSR register and
the internal pull-up is disabled. When neither INAK nor SLAK are set, bxCAN is in normal
mode. Before entering normal mode bxCAN always has to synchronize on the CAN bus.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 545/995

Controller area network (bxCAN) RM0008

To synchronize, bxCAN waits until the CAN bus is idle, this means 11 consecutive recessive
bits have been monitored on CANRX.

22.4.1 Initialization mode

The software initialization can be done while the hardware is in Initialization mode. To enter
this mode the software sets the INRQ bit in the CAN_MCR register and waits until the
hardware has confirmed the request by setting the INAK bit in the CAN_MSR register.
To leave Initialization mode, the software clears the INQR bit. bxCAN has left Initialization
mode once the INAK bit has been cleared by hardware.
While in Initialization Mode, all message transfers to and from the CAN bus are stopped and
the status of the CAN bus output CANTX is recessive (high).
Entering Initialization Mode does not change any of the configuration registers.
To initialize the CAN Controller, software has to set up the Bit Timing (CAN_BTR) and CAN
options (CAN_MCR) registers.
To initialize the registers associated with the CAN filter banks (mode, scale, FIFO
assignment, activation and filter values), software has to set the FINIT bit (CAN_FMR). Filter
initialization also can be done outside the initialization mode.
Note: When FINIT=1, CAN reception is deactivated.
The filter values also can be modified by deactivating the associated filter activation bits (in
the CAN_FA1R register).
If a filter bank is not used, it is recommended to leave it non active (leave the corresponding
FACT bit cleared).

22.4.2 Normal mode

Once the initialization has been done, the software must request the hardware to enter
Normal mode, to synchronize on the CAN bus and start reception and transmission.
Entering Normal mode is done by clearing the INRQ bit in the CAN_MCR register and
waiting until the hardware has confirmed the request by clearing the INAK bit in the
CAN_MSR register. Afterwards, the bxCAN synchronizes with the data transfer on the CAN
bus by waiting for the occurrence of a sequence of 11 consecutive recessive bits (Bus Idle)
before it can take part in bus activities and start message transfer.
The initialization of the filter values is independent from Initialization Mode but must be done
while the filter is not active (corresponding FACTx bit cleared). The filter scale and mode
configuration must be configured before entering Normal Mode.

22.4.3 Sleep mode (low power)

To reduce power consumption, bxCAN has a low-power mode called Sleep mode. This
mode is entered on software request by setting the SLEEP bit in the CAN_MCR register. In
this mode, the bxCAN clock is stopped, however software can still access the bxCAN
mailboxes.
If software requests entry to initialization mode by setting the INRQ bit while bxCAN is in
Sleep mode, it must also clear the SLEEP bit.
bxCAN can be woken up (exit Sleep mode) either by software clearing the SLEEP bit or on
detection of CAN bus activity.

546/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Controller area network (bxCAN)

On CAN bus activity detection, hardware automatically performs the wakeup sequence by
clearing the SLEEP bit if the AWUM bit in the CAN_MCR register is set. If the AWUM bit is
cleared, software has to clear the SLEEP bit when a wakeup interrupt occurs, in order to exit
from Sleep mode.
Note: If the wakeup interrupt is enabled (WKUIE bit set in CAN_IER register) a wakeup interrupt
will be generated on detection of CAN bus activity, even if the bxCAN automatically performs
the wakeup sequence.
After the SLEEP bit has been cleared, Sleep mode is exited once bxCAN has synchronized
with the CAN bus, refer to Figure 194: bxCAN operating modes. The Sleep mode is exited
once the SLAK bit has been cleared by hardware.

CAN_MSR register
2. SYNC = The state during which bxCAN waits until the CAN bus is idle, meaning 11 consecutive recessive
bits have been monitored on CANRX

22.5 Test mode

Test mode can be selected by the SILM and LBKM bits in the CAN_BTR register. These bits
must be configured while bxCAN is in Initialization mode. Once test mode has been
selected, the INRQ bit in the CAN_MCR register must be reset to enter Normal mode.

22.5.1 Silent mode

The bxCAN can be put in Silent mode by setting the SILM bit in the CAN_BTR register.
In Silent mode, the bxCAN is able to receive valid data frames and valid remote frames, but
it sends only recessive bits on the CAN bus and it cannot start a transmission. If the bxCAN
has to send a dominant bit (ACK bit, overload flag, active error flag), the bit is rerouted
internally so that the CAN Core monitors this dominant bit, although the CAN bus may
remain in recessive state. Silent mode can be used to analyze the traffic on a CAN bus
without affecting it by the transmission of dominant bits (Acknowledge Bits, Error Frames).

22.5.2 Loop back mode

The bxCAN can be set in Loop Back Mode by setting the LBKM bit in the CAN_BTR
register. In Loop Back Mode, the bxCAN treats its own transmitted messages as received
messages and stores them (if they pass acceptance filtering) in a Receive mailbox.

Figure 196. bxCAN in loop back mode

bxCAN
Tx Rx

CANTX CANRX

This mode is provided for self-test functions. To be independent of external events, the CAN
Core ignores acknowledge errors (no dominant bit sampled in the acknowledge slot of a
data / remote frame) in Loop Back Mode. In this mode, the bxCAN performs an internal
feedback from its Tx output to its Rx input. The actual value of the CANRX input pin is
disregarded by the bxCAN. The transmitted messages can be monitored on the CANTX pin.

22.5.3 Loop back combined with silent mode

It is also possible to combine Loop Back mode and Silent mode by setting the LBKM and
SILM bits in the CAN_BTR register. This mode can be used for a “Hot Selftest”, meaning the
bxCAN can be tested like in Loop Back mode but without affecting a running CAN system
connected to the CANTX and CANRX pins. In this mode, the CANRX pin is disconnected
from the bxCAN and the CANTX pin is held recessive.

22.6 STM32F10xxx in Debug mode

When the microcontroller enters the debug mode (Cortex-M3 core halted), the bxCAN
continues to work normally or stops, depending on:
● the DBG_CAN1_STOP bit for CAN1 or the DBG_CAN2_STOP bit for CAN2 in the DBG
module. For more details, refer to Section 29.16.2: Debug support for timers, watchdog,
bxCAN and I2C.
● the DBF bit in CAN_MCR. For more details, refer to Section 22.9.2: CAN control and
status registers.

22.7 bxCAN functional description

22.7.1 Transmission handling

In order to transmit a message, the application must select one empty transmit mailbox, set
up the identifier, the data length code (DLC) and the data before requesting the transmission
by setting the corresponding TXRQ bit in the CAN_TIxR register. Once the mailbox has left
empty state, the software no longer has write access to the mailbox registers. Immediately
after the TXRQ bit has been set, the mailbox enters pending state and waits to become the
highest priority mailbox, see Transmit Priority. As soon as the mailbox has the highest
priority it will be scheduled for transmission. The transmission of the message of the
scheduled mailbox will start (enter transmit state) when the CAN bus becomes idle. Once
the mailbox has been successfully transmitted, it will become empty again. The hardware
indicates a successful transmission by setting the RQCP and TXOK bits in the CAN_TSR
register.
If the transmission fails, the cause is indicated by the ALST bit in the CAN_TSR register in
case of an Arbitration Lost, and/or the TERR bit, in case of transmission error detection.

Transmit priority
By identifier:
When more than one transmit mailbox is pending, the transmission order is given by the
identifier of the message stored in the mailbox. The message with the lowest identifier value
has the highest priority according to the arbitration of the CAN protocol. If the identifier
values are equal, the lower mailbox number will be scheduled first.
By transmit request order:

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 549/995

Controller area network (bxCAN) RM0008

The transmit mailboxes can be configured as a transmit FIFO by setting the TXFP bit in the
CAN_MCR register. In this mode the priority order is given by the transmit request order.
This mode is very useful for segmented transmission.

Abort
A transmission request can be aborted by the user setting the ABRQ bit in the CAN_TSR
register. In pending or scheduled state, the mailbox is aborted immediately. An abort
request while the mailbox is in transmit state can have two results. If the mailbox is
transmitted successfully the mailbox becomes empty with the TXOK bit set in the
CAN_TSR register. If the transmission fails, the mailbox becomes scheduled, the
transmission is aborted and becomes empty with TXOK cleared. In all cases the mailbox
will become empty again at least at the end of the current transmission.

Non-automatic retransmission mode

This mode has been implemented in order to fulfil the requirement of the Time Triggered
Communication option of the CAN standard. To configure the hardware in this mode the
NART bit in the CAN_MCR register must be set.
In this mode, each transmission is started only once. If the first attempt fails, due to an
arbitration loss or an error, the hardware will not automatically restart the message
transmission.
At the end of the first transmission attempt, the hardware considers the request as
completed and sets the RQCP bit in the CAN_TSR register. The result of the transmission is
indicated in the CAN_TSR register by the TXOK, ALST and TERR bits.

22.7.2 Time triggered communication mode

In this mode, the internal counter of the CAN hardware is activated and used to generate the
Time Stamp value stored in the CAN_RDTxR/CAN_TDTxR registers, respectively (for Rx
and Tx mailboxes). The internal counter is incremented each CAN bit time (refer to
Section 22.7.7: Bit timing). The internal counter is captured on the sample point of the Start
Of Frame bit in both reception and transmission.

22.7.3 Reception handling

For the reception of CAN messages, three mailboxes organized as a FIFO are provided. In
order to save CPU load, simplify the software and guarantee data consistency, the FIFO is
managed completely by hardware. The application accesses the messages stored in the
FIFO through the FIFO output mailbox.

Valid message
A received message is considered as valid when it has been received correctly according to
the CAN protocol (no error until the last but one bit of the EOF field) and It passed through
the identifier filtering successfully, see Section 22.7.4: Identifier filtering.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 551/995

Controller area network (bxCAN) RM0008

FIFO management
Starting from the empty state, the first valid message received is stored in the FIFO which
becomes pending_1. The hardware signals the event setting the FMP[1:0] bits in the
CAN_RFR register to the value 01b. The message is available in the FIFO output mailbox.
The software reads out the mailbox content and releases it by setting the RFOM bit in the
CAN_RFR register. The FIFO becomes empty again. If a new valid message has been
received in the meantime, the FIFO stays in pending_1 state and the new message is
available in the output mailbox.
If the application does not release the mailbox, the next valid message will be stored in the
FIFO which enters pending_2 state (FMP[1:0] = 10b). The storage process is repeated for
the next valid message putting the FIFO into pending_3 state (FMP[1:0] = 11b). At this
point, the software must release the output mailbox by setting the RFOM bit, so that a
mailbox is free to store the next valid message. Otherwise the next valid message received
will cause a loss of message.
Refer also to Section 22.7.5: Message storage

Overrun
Once the FIFO is in pending_3 state (i.e. the three mailboxes are full) the next valid
message reception will lead to an overrun and a message will be lost. The hardware
signals the overrun condition by setting the FOVR bit in the CAN_RFR register. Which
message is lost depends on the configuration of the FIFO:
● If the FIFO lock function is disabled (RFLM bit in the CAN_MCR register cleared) the
last message stored in the FIFO will be overwritten by the new incoming message. In
this case the latest messages will be always available to the application.
● If the FIFO lock function is enabled (RFLM bit in the CAN_MCR register set) the most
recent message will be discarded and the software will have the three oldest messages
in the FIFO available.

Reception related interrupts

Once a message has been stored in the FIFO, the FMP[1:0] bits are updated and an
interrupt request is generated if the FMPIE bit in the CAN_IER register is set.
When the FIFO becomes full (i.e. a third message is stored) the FULL bit in the CAN_RFR
register is set and an interrupt is generated if the FFIE bit in the CAN_IER register is set.
On overrun condition, the FOVR bit is set and an interrupt is generated if the FOVIE bit in
the CAN_IER register is set.

22.7.4 Identifier filtering

In the CAN protocol the identifier of a message is not associated with the address of a node
but related to the content of the message. Consequently a transmitter broadcasts its
message to all receivers. On message reception a receiver node decides - depending on
the identifier value - whether the software needs the message or not. If the message is
needed, it is copied into the SRAM. If not, the message must be discarded without
intervention by the software.
To fulfill this requirement, in connectivity line devices the bxCAN Controller provides 28
configurable and scalable filter banks (27-0) to the application. In other devices the bxCAN
Controller provides 14 configurable and scalable filter banks (13-0) to the application in
order to receive only the messages the software needs. This hardware filtering saves CPU

552/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Controller area network (bxCAN)

resources which would be otherwise needed to perform filtering by software. Each filter
bank x consists of two 32-bit registers, CAN_FxR0 and CAN_FxR1.

Scalable width
To optimize and adapt the filters to the application needs, each filter bank can be scaled
independently. Depending on the filter scale a filter bank provides:
● One 32-bit filter for the STDID[10:0], EXTID[17:0], IDE and RTR bits.
● Two 16-bit filters for the STDID[10:0], RTR, IDE and EXTID[17:15] bits.
Refer to Figure 200.
Furthermore, the filters can be configured in mask mode or in identifier list mode.

Mask mode
In mask mode the identifier registers are associated with mask registers specifying which
bits of the identifier are handled as “must match” or as “don’t care”.

Identifier list mode

In identifier list mode, the mask registers are used as identifier registers. Thus instead of
defining an identifier and a mask, two identifiers are specified, doubling the number of single
identifiers. All bits of the incoming identifier must match the bits specified in the filter
registers.

Filter bank scale and mode configuration

The filter banks are configured by means of the corresponding CAN_FMR register. To
configure a filter bank it must be deactivated by clearing the FACT bit in the CAN_FAR
register. The filter scale is configured by means of the corresponding FSCx bit in the
CAN_FS1R register, refer to Figure 200. The identifier list or identifier mask mode for the
corresponding Mask/Identifier registers is configured by means of the FBMx bits in the
CAN_FMR register.
To filter a group of identifiers, configure the Mask/Identifier registers in mask mode.
To select single identifiers, configure the Mask/Identifier registers in identifier list mode.
Filters not used by the application should be left deactivated.
Each filter within a filter bank is numbered (called the Filter Number) from 0 to a maximum
dependent on the mode and the scale of each of the filter banks.
Concerning the filter configuration, refer to Figure 200.

Filter match index

Once a message has been received in the FIFO it is available to the application. Typically,
application data is copied into SRAM locations. To copy the data to the right location the
application has to identify the data by means of the identifier. To avoid this, and to ease the
access to the SRAM locations, the CAN controller provides a Filter Match Index.
This index is stored in the mailbox together with the message according to the filter priority
rules. Thus each received message has its associated filter match index.
The Filter Match index can be used in two ways:
● Compare the Filter Match index with a list of expected values.
● Use the Filter Match Index as an index on an array to access the data destination
location.
For non-masked filters, the software no longer has to compare the identifier.
If the filter is masked the software reduces the comparison to the masked bits only.
The index value of the filter number does not take into account the activation state of the
filter banks. In addition, two independent numbering schemes are used, one for each FIFO.
Refer to Figure 201 for an example.

Filter priority rules

Depending on the filter combination it may occur that an identifier passes successfully
through several filters. In this case the filter match value stored in the receive mailbox is
chosen according to the following priority rules:
● A 32-bit filter takes priority over a 16-bit filter.
● For filters of equal scale, priority is given to the Identifier List mode over the Identifier
Mask mode
● For filters of equal scale and mode, priority is given by the filter number (the lower the
number, the higher the priority).

Message Discarded

The example above shows the filtering principle of the bxCAN. On reception of a message,
the identifier is compared first with the filters configured in identifier list mode. If there is a
match, the message is stored in the associated FIFO and the index of the matching filter is
stored in the Filter Match Index. As shown in the example, the identifier matches with
Identifier #2 thus the message content and FMI 2 is stored in the FIFO.
If there is no match, the incoming identifier is then compared with the filters configured in
mask mode.
If the identifier does not match any of the identifiers configured in the filters, the message is
discarded by hardware without disturbing the software.

22.7.5 Message storage

The interface between the software and the hardware for the CAN messages is
implemented by means of mailboxes. A mailbox contains all information related to a
message; identifier, data, control, status and time stamp information.

Transmit mailbox
The software sets up the message to be transmitted in an empty transmit mailbox. The
status of the transmission is indicated by hardware in the CAN_TSR register.

Receive mailbox
When a message has been received, it is available to the software in the FIFO output
mailbox. Once the software has handled the message (e.g. read it) the software must
release the FIFO output mailbox by means of the RFOM bit in the CAN_RFR register to
make the next incoming message available. The filter match index is stored in the MFMI field
of the CAN_RDTxR register. The 16-bit time stamp value is stored in the TIME[15:0] field of
CAN_RDTxR.

22.7.6 Error management

The error management as described in the CAN protocol is handled entirely by hardware
using a Transmit Error Counter (TEC value, in CAN_ESR register) and a Receive Error
Counter (REC value, in the CAN_ESR register), which get incremented or decremented
according to the error condition. For detailed information about TEC and REC management,
please refer to the CAN standard.
Both of them may be read by software to determine the stability of the network.
Furthermore, the CAN hardware provides detailed information on the current error status in
CAN_ESR register. By means of the CAN_IER register (ERRIE bit, etc.), the software can
configure the interrupt generation on error detection in a very flexible way.

Bus-Off recovery
The Bus-Off state is reached when TEC is greater than 255, this state is indicated by BOFF
bit in CAN_ESR register. In Bus-Off state, the bxCAN is no longer able to transmit and
receive messages.
Depending on the ABOM bit in the CAN_MCR register bxCAN will recover from Bus-Off
(become error active again) either automatically or on software request. But in both cases
the bxCAN has to wait at least for the recovery sequence specified in the CAN standard
(128 occurrences of 11 consecutive recessive bits monitored on CANRX).
If ABOM is set, the bxCAN will start the recovering sequence automatically after it has
entered Bus-Off state.
If ABOM is cleared, the software must initiate the recovering sequence by requesting
bxCAN to enter and to leave initialization mode.
Note: In initialization mode, bxCAN does not monitor the CANRX signal, therefore it cannot
complete the recovery sequence. To recover, bxCAN must be in normal mode.

22.7.7 Bit timing

The bit timing logic monitors the serial bus-line and performs sampling and adjustment of
the sample point by synchronizing on the start-bit edge and resynchronizing on the following
edges.
Its operation may be explained simply by splitting nominal bit time into three segments as
follows:
● Synchronization segment (SYNC_SEG): a bit change is expected to occur within this
time segment. It has a fixed length of one time quantum (1 x tCAN).
● Bit segment 1 (BS1): defines the location of the sample point. It includes the
PROP_SEG and PHASE_SEG1 of the CAN standard. Its duration is programmable
between 1 and 16 time quanta but may be automatically lengthened to compensate for
positive phase drifts due to differences in the frequency of the various nodes of the
network.
● Bit segment 2 (BS2): defines the location of the transmit point. It represents the
PHASE_SEG2 of the CAN standard. Its duration is programmable between 1 and 8
time quanta but may also be automatically shortened to compensate for negative
phase drifts.
The resynchronization Jump Width (SJW) defines an upper bound to the amount of
lengthening or shortening of the bit segments. It is programmable between 1 and 4 time
quanta.

558/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Controller area network (bxCAN)

A valid edge is defined as the first transition in a bit time from dominant to recessive bus
level provided the controller itself does not send a recessive bit.
If a valid edge is detected in BS1 instead of SYNC_SEG, BS1 is extended by up to SJW so
that the sample point is delayed.
Conversely, if a valid edge is detected in BS2 instead of SYNC_SEG, BS2 is shortened by
up to SJW so that the transmit point is moved earlier.
As a safeguard against programming errors, the configuration of the Bit Timing Register
(CAN_BTR) is only possible while the device is in Standby mode.
Note: For a detailed description of the CAN bit timing and resynchronization mechanism, please
refer to the ISO 11898 standard.

22.9 CAN registers

22.9.1 Register access protection

Erroneous access to certain configuration registers can cause the hardware to temporarily
disturb the whole CAN network. Therefore the CAN_BTR register can be modified by
software only while the CAN hardware is in initialization mode.
Although the transmission of incorrect data will not cause problems at the CAN network
level, it can severely disturb the application. A transmit mailbox can be only modified by
software while it is in empty state, refer to Figure 198: Transmit mailbox states.
The filter values can be modified either deactivating the associated filter banks or by setting
the FINIT bit. Moreover, the modification of the filter configuration (scale, mode and FIFO
assignment) in CAN_FMxR, CAN_FSxR and CAN_FFAR registers can only be done when
the filter initialization mode is set (FINIT=1) in the CAN_FMR register.

Bit 0 INRQ: Initialization request

The software clears this bit to switch the hardware into normal mode. Once 11 consecutive
recessive bits have been monitored on the Rx signal the CAN hardware is synchronized and
ready for transmission and reception. Hardware signals this event by clearing the INAK bit in
the CAN_MSR register.
Software sets this bit to request the CAN hardware to enter initialization mode. Once
software has set the INRQ bit, the CAN hardware waits until the current CAN activity
(transmission or reception) is completed before entering the initialization mode. Hardware
signals this event by setting the INAK bit in the CAN_MSR register.

22.9.3 CAN mailbox registers

This chapter describes the registers of the transmit and receive mailboxes. Refer to
Section 22.7.5: Message storage on page 556 for detailed register mapping.
Transmit and receive mailboxes have the same registers except:
● The FMI field in the CAN_RDTxR register.
● A receive mailbox is always write protected.
● A transmit mailbox is write-enabled only while empty, corresponding TME bit in the
CAN_TSR register set.
There are 3 TX Mailboxes and 2 RX Mailboxes. Each RX Mailbox allows access to a 3 level
depth FIFO, the access being offered only to the oldest received message in the FIFO.
Each mailbox consist of 4 registers.

0: Don’t care, the bit is not used for the comparison
1: Must match, the bit of the incoming identifier must have the same level has specified in
the corresponding identifier register of the filter.

Note: Depending on the scale and mode configuration of the filter the function of each register can
differ. For the filter mapping, functions description and mask registers association, refer to
Section 22.7.4: Identifier filtering on page 552.
A Mask/Identifier register in mask mode has the same bit mapping as in identifier list
mode.
For the register mapping/addresses of the filter banks please refer to the Table 164 on
page 583.

23 Serial peripheral interface (SPI)

Low-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.

23.1 SPI introduction

In high-density and connectivity line devices, the SPI interface gives the flexibility to get
either the SPI protocol or the I2S audio protocol. By default, it is the SPI function that is
selected. It is possible to switch the interface from SPI to I2S by software.
In low- and medium-density devices, the I2S protocol is not available.
The serial peripheral interface (SPI) allows half/ full-duplex, synchronous, serial
communication with external devices. The interface can be configured as the master and in
this case it provides the communication clock (SCK) to the external slave device. The
interface is also capable of operating in multimaster configuration.
It may be used for a variety of purposes, including Simplex synchronous transfers on two
lines with a possible bidirectional data line or reliable communication using CRC checking.
I2S is also a synchronous, serial communication interface with a 3-pin protocol. It can
address four different audio standards including the I2S Phillips standard, the MSB- and
LSB-justified standards and the PCM standard. It can operate in slave or master mode with
half-duplex communication. Master clock may be provided by the interface to an external
slave component when the I2S is configured as the communication master.

Warning: Since some SPI3/I2S3 pins are shared with JTAG pins
(SPI3_NSS/I2S3_WS with JTDI and SPI3_SCK/I2S3_CK with
JTDO), they are not controlled by the I/O controller and are
reserved for JTAG usage (after each Reset).
For this purpose prior to configure the SPI3/I2S3 pins, the
user has to disable the JTAG and use the SWD interface
(when debugging the application), or disable both JTAG/SWD
interfaces (for standalone application). For more information
on the configuration of JTAG/SWD interface pins, please refer
to Section 8.3.5: JTAG/SWD alternate function remapping.

Usually, the SPI is connected to external devices through 4 pins:

● MISO: Master In / Slave Out data. This pin can be used to transmit data in slave mode
and receive data in master mode.
● MOSI: Master Out / Slave In data. This pin can be used to transmit data in master
mode and receive data in slave mode.
● SCK: Serial Clock output for SPI masters and input for SPI slaves.
● NSS: Slave select. This is an optional pin to select master/ slave mode. This pin acts as
a ‘chip select’ to let the SPI master communicate with slaves individually and to avoid
contention on the data lines. Slave NSS inputs can be driven by standard I/O ports on
the master Device. The NSS pin may also be used as an output if enabled (SSOE bit)
and driven low if the SPI is in master configuration. In this manner, all NSS pins from
devices connected to the Master NSS pin see a low level and become slaves when
they are configured in NSS hardware mode.
A basic example of interconnections between a single master and a single slave is
illustrated in Figure 208.

1. Here, the NSS pin is configured as an input.

The MOSI pins are connected together and the MISO pins are connected together. In this
way data is transferred serially between master and slave (most significant bit first).
The communication is always initiated by the master. When the master device transmits
data to a slave device via the MOSI pin, the slave device responds via the MISO pin. This
implies full-duplex communication with both data out and data in synchronized with the
same clock signal (which is provided by the master device via the SCK pin).

Slave select (NSS) pin management

There are two NSS modes:
● Software NSS mode: this mode is enabled by setting the SSM bit in the SPI_CR1
register (see Figure 209). In this mode, the external NSS pin is free for other
application uses and the internal NSS signal level is driven by writing to the SSI bit in
the SPI_CR1 register.
● Hardware NSS mode: there are two cases:
– NSS output is enabled: when the STM32F20xxx is operating as a Master and the
NSS output is enabled through the SSOE bit in the SPI_CR2 register, the NSS pin
is driven low and all the NSS pins of devices connected to the Master NSS pin see
a low level and become slaves when they are configured in NSS hardware mode.
When an SPI wants to broadcast a message, it has to pull NSS low to inform all
others that there is now a master for the bus. If it fails to pull NSS low, this means
that there is another master communicating, and a Hard Fault error occurs.
– NSS output is disabled: the multimaster capability is allowed.

Clock phase and clock polarity

Four possible timing relationships may be chosen by software, using the CPOL and CPHA
bits in the SPI_CR1 register. The CPOL (clock polarity) bit controls the steady state value of
the clock when no data is being transferred. This bit affects both master and slave modes. If
CPOL is reset, the SCK pin has a low-level idle state. If CPOL is set, the SCK pin has a
high-level idle state.
If the CPHA (clock phase) bit is set, the second edge on the SCK pin (falling edge if the
CPOL bit is reset, rising edge if the CPOL bit is set) is the MSBit capture strobe. Data are
latched on the occurrence of the second clock transition. If the CPHA bit is reset, the first
edge on the SCK pin (falling edge if CPOL bit is set, rising edge if CPOL bit is reset) is the
MSBit capture strobe. Data are latched on the occurrence of the first clock transition.
The combination of the CPOL (clock polarity) and CPHA (clock phase) bits selects the data
capture clock edge.
Figure 210, shows an SPI transfer with the four combinations of the CPHA and CPOL bits.
The diagram may be interpreted as a master or slave timing diagram where the SCK pin, the
MISO pin, the MOSI pin are directly connected between the master and the slave device.
Note: 1 Prior to changing the CPOL/CPHA bits the SPI must be disabled by resetting the SPE bit.
2 Master and slave must be programmed with the same timing mode.
3 The idle state of SCK must correspond to the polarity selected in the SPI_CR1 register (by
pulling up SCK if CPOL=1 or pulling down SCK if CPOL=0).
4 The Data Frame Format (8- or 16-bit) is selected through the DFF bit in SPI_CR1 register,
and determines the data length during transmission/reception.

Data frame format

Data can be shifted out either MSB-first or LSB-first depending on the value of the
LSBFIRST bit in the SPI_CR1 Register.
Each data frame is 8 or 16 bits long depending on the size of the data programmed using
the DFF bit in the SPI_CR1 register. The selected data frame format is applicable for
transmission and/or reception.

23.3.2 SPI slave mode

In slave configuration, the serial clock is received on the SCK pin from the master device.
The value set in the BR[2:0] bits in the SPI_CR1 register, does not affect the data transfer
rate.

Procedure
1. Set the DFF bit to define 8- or 16-bit data frame format
2. Select the CPOL and CPHA bits to define one of the four relationships between the
data transfer and the serial clock (see Figure 210). For correct data transfer, the CPOL
and CPHA bits must be configured in the same way in the slave device and the master
device.
3. The frame format (MSB-first or LSB-first depending on the value of the LSBFIRST bit in
the SPI_CR1 register) must be the same as the master device.
4. In Hardware mode (refer to Slave select (NSS) pin management on page 590), the
NSS pin must be connected to a low level signal during the complete byte transmit
sequence. In Software mode, set the SSM bit and clear the SSI bit in the SPI_CR1
register.
5. Clear the MSTR bit and set the SPE bit (both in the SPI_CR1 register) to assign the
pins to alternate functions.
In this configuration the MOSI pin is a data input and the MISO pin is a data output.

Transmit sequence
The data byte is parallel-loaded into the Tx buffer during a write cycle.
The transmit sequence begins when the slave device receives the clock signal and the most
significant bit of the data on its MOSI pin. The remaining bits (the 7 bits in 8-bit data frame
format, and the 15 bits in 16-bit data frame format) are loaded into the shift-register. The
TXE flag in the SPI_SR register is set on the transfer of data from the Tx Buffer to the shift
register and an interrupt is generated if the TXEIE bit in the SPI_CR2 register is set.

Receive sequence
For the receiver, when data transfer is complete:
● The Data in shift register is transferred to Rx Buffer and the RXNE flag (SPI_SR
register) is set
● An Interrupt is generated if the RXNEIE bit is set in the SPI_CR2 register.
After the last sampling clock edge the RXNE bit is set, a copy of the data byte received in
the shift register is moved to the Rx buffer. When the SPI_DR register is read, the SPI
peripheral returns this buffered value.
Clearing of the RXNE bit is performed by reading the SPI_DR register.

23.3.3 SPI master mode

In the master configuration, the serial clock is generated on the SCK pin.

1. Select the BR[2:0] bits to define the serial clock baud rate (see SPI_CR1 register).
2. Select the CPOL and CPHA bits to define one of the four relationships between the
data transfer and the serial clock (see Figure 210).
3. Set the DFF bit to define 8- or 16-bit data frame format
4. Configure the LSBFIRST bit in the SPI_CR1 register to define the frame format
5. If the NSS pin is required in input mode, in hardware mode, connect the NSS pin to a
high-level signal during the complete byte transmit sequence. In software mode, set the
SSM and SSI bits in the SPI_CR1 register.
If the NSS pin is required in output mode, the SSOE bit only should be set.
6. The MSTR and SPE bits must be set (they remain set only if the NSS pin is connected
to a high-level signal).
In this configuration the MOSI pin is a data output and the MISO pin is a data input.

Transmit sequence
The transmit sequence begins when a byte is written in the Tx Buffer.
The data byte is parallel-loaded into the shift register (from the internal bus) during the first
bit transmission and then shifted out serially to the MOSI pin MSB first or LSB first
depending on the LSBFIRST bit in the SPI_CR1 register. The TXE flag is set on the transfer
of data from the Tx Buffer to the shift register and an interrupt is generated if the TXEIE bit in
the SPI_CR2 register is set.

Receive sequence
For the receiver, when data transfer is complete:
● The data in the shift register is transferred to the RX Buffer and the RXNE flag is set
● An interrupt is generated if the RXNEIE bit is set in the SPI_CR2 register
At the last sampling clock edge the RXNE bit is set, a copy of the data byte received in the
shift register is moved to the Rx buffer. When the SPI_DR register is read, the SPI
peripheral returns this buffered value.
Clearing the RXNE bit is performed by reading the SPI_DR register.
A continuous transmit stream can be maintained if the next data to be transmitted is put in
the Tx buffer once the transmission is started. Note that TXE flag should be ‘1’ before any
attempt to write the Tx buffer is made.
Note: In the NSS hardware mode, the slave's NSS input is controlled by the NSS pin or another
GPIO pin that has to be controlled by software.

23.3.4 Simplex communication

The SPI is capable of operating in simplex mode in 2 configurations.
● 1 clock and 1 bidirectional data wire
● 1 clock and 1 data wire (receive-only in full-duplex mode)

1 clock and 1 bidirectional data wire

This mode is enabled by setting the BIDIMODE bit in the SPI_CR1 register. In this mode
SCK is used for the clock and MOSI in master or MISO in slave mode is used for data

594/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Serial peripheral interface (SPI)

communication. The transfer direction (Input/Output) is selected by the BIDIOE bit in the
SPI_CR1 register. When this bit is 1, the data line is output otherwise it is input.

1 clock and 1 data wire (receive-only in full-duplex mode)

In order to free an I/O pin so it can be used for other purposes, it is possible to disable the
SPI output function by setting the RXONLY bit in the SPI_CR1 register. In this case, SPI will
function in Receive-only mode. When the RXONLY bit is reset, the SPI will function in full
duplex mode.
To start the communication in receive-only mode, it is necessary to enable the SPI. In the
master mode, the communication starts immediately and will stop when the SPE bit is reset
and the current reception terminates. In slave mode, the SPI will continue to receive as long
as the NSS is pulled down (or the SSI bit is reset) and the SCK is running.
Note: The SPI can be used in Tx-only mode when the RXONLY bit in the SPI_CR1 register is
reset, the RX pin (MISO in master or MOSI in slave) can be used as GPIO. In this case,
when the data register is read, it does not contain the received value.
In simplex communications, when the SPI master is in Receive-only mode, the clock is
generated continuously once the SPI master has been enabled.

23.3.5 Status flags

Three status flags are provided for the application to completely monitor the state of the SPI
bus.

BUSY flag
This flag indicates the state of the SPI communication layer. When it is set, it indicates that
the SPI is busy communicating and/or there is a valid data byte in the Tx buffer waiting to be
transmitted. The purpose of this flag is to indicate if there is any communication ongoing on
the SPI bus or not. This flag is set as soon as:
1. Data is written in the SPI_DR register in master mode
2. The SCK clock is present in slave mode
The BUSY flag is reset each time a byte is transmitted/received. This flag is set and cleared
by hardware. It can be monitored to avoid write collision errors. Writing to this flag has no
effect. The BUSY flag is meaningful only when the SPE bit is set.
Note: In master receiver mode (1-line bidirectional), the BUSY flag must NOT be checked.

Tx buffer empty flag (TXE)

When it is set, this flag indicates that the Tx buffer is empty and the next data to be
transmitted can be loaded into the buffer. The TXE flag is reset when the Tx buffer already
contains data to be transmitted. This flag is reset when the SPI is disabled (SPE bit is reset).

Rx buffer not empty (RXNE)

When set, this flag indicates that there are valid received data in the Rx Buffer. It is reset
when SPI Data register is read.

23.3.6 CRC calculation

A CRC calculator has been implemented for communication reliability. Separate CRC
calculators are implemented for transmitted data and received data. The CRC is calculated

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 595/995

Serial peripheral interface (SPI) RM0008

using a programmable polynomial serially on each bit. It is calculated on the sampling clock
edge defined by the CPHA and CPOL bits in the SPI_CR1 register.
Note: This SPI offers two kinds of CRC calculation standard which depend directly on the data
frame format selected for the transmission and/or reception: 8-bit data (CR8) and 16-bit data
(CRC16-CCITT).
CRC calculation is enabled by setting the CRCEN bit in the SPI_CR1 register. This action
resets the CRC registers (SPI_RXCRCR and SPI_TXCRCR). When the CRCNEXT bit in
SPI_CR1 is set, the SPI_TXCRCR value is transmitted at the end of the current byte
transmission.
The CRCERR flag in the SPI_SR register is set if the value received in the shift register
during the SPI_TXCRCR value transmission does not match the SPI_RXCRCR value.
If data are present in the TX buffer, the CRC value is transmitted only after the transmission
of the data byte. During CRC transmission, the CRC calculator is switched off and the
register value remains unchanged.
Note: Please refer to the product specifications for availability of this feature.
SPI communication using CRC is possible through the following procedure:
● Program the CPOL, CPHA, LSBFirst, BR, SSM, SSI and MSTR values
● Program the polynomial in the SPI_CRCPR register
● Enable the CRC calculation by setting the CRCEN bit in the SPI_CR1 register. This
also clears the SPI_RXCRCR and SPI_TXCRCR registers
● Enable the SPI by setting the SPE bit in the SPI_CR1 register
● Start the communication and sustain the communication until all but one byte or half-
word have been transmitted or received.
● On writing the last byte or half-word to the TX buffer, set the CRCNext bit in the
SPI_CR1 register to indicate that after transmission of the last byte, the CRC should be
transmitted. CRC calculation is frozen during the CRC transmission.
● After transmitting the last byte or half word, the SPI transmits the CRC. The CRCNEXT
bit is reset. The CRC is also received and compared against the SPI_RXCRCR value.
If the value does not match, the CRCERR flag in SPI_SR is set and an interrupt can be
generated when the ERRIE bit in the SPI_CR2 register is set.
Note: When the SPI is in slave mode, be careful to enable CRC calculation only when the clock is
stable. If not, a wrong CRC calculation may be done.
With high bit rate frequencies, be carefull when transmitting the CRC. As the number of
used CPU cycles has to be as low as possible in the CRC transfer phase, it is forbidden to
call software functions in the CRC transmission sequence to avoid errors in the last data
and CRC reception.
For high bit rate frequencies, it is advised to use the DMA mode to avoid the degradation of
the SPI speed performance due to CPU accesses impacting the SPI bandwidth.
When the STM32F10xxx is configured as slave and the NSS hardware mode is used, the
NSS pin needs to be kept low between the data phase and the CRC phase.

23.3.7 SPI communication using DMA (direct memory addressing)

To operate at its maximum speed, the SPI needs to be fed with the data for transmission and
the data received on the Rx buffer should be read to avoid overrun. To facilitate the transfers,
the SPI is implemented with a DMA facility with a simple request/acknowledge protocol.

596/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Serial peripheral interface (SPI)

DMA access is requested when the enable bit in the SPI_CR2 register is enabled. There are
separate requests for the Tx buffer and the Rx buffer.

DMA capability with CRC

When SPI communication is enabled with the CRC communication and the DMA mode, the
transmission and reception of the CRC bytes at the end of communication are done
automatically.
At the end of data and CRC transfers, the CRCERR flag in SPI_SR is set if corruption
occurs during the transfer.

23.3.8 Error flags

Master mode fault (MODF)
Master mode fault occurs when the master device has its NSS pin pulled low (in hardware
mode) or SSI bit low (in software mode), this automatically sets the MODF bit. Master mode
fault affects the SPI peripheral in the following ways:
● The MODF bit is set and an SPI interrupt is generated if the ERRIE bit is set.
● The SPE bit is reset. This blocks all output from the device and disables the SPI
interface.
● The MSTR bit is reset, thus forcing the device into slave mode.
Use the following software sequence to clear the MODF bit:
1. Make a read or write access to the SPI_SR register while the MODF bit is set.
2. Then write to the SPI_CR1 register.
To avoid any multiple slave conflicts in a system comprising several MCUs, the NSS pin
must be pulled high during the MODF bit clearing sequence. The SPE and MSTR bits can
be restored to their original state during or after this clearing sequence.
As a security, hardware does not allow the setting of the SPE and MSTR bits while the
MODF bit is set.
In a slave device the MODF bit cannot be set. However, in a multimaster configuration, the
device can be in slave mode with this MODF bit set. In this case, the MODF bit indicates that
there might have been a multimaster conflict for system control. An interrupt routine can be
used to recover cleanly from this state by performing a reset or returning to a default state.

Overrun condition
An overrun condition occurs when the master device has sent data bytes and the slave
device has not cleared the RXNE bit resulting from the previous data byte transmitted.
When an overrun condition occurs:
● OVR bit is set and an interrupt is generated if the ERRIE bit is set.
In this case, the receiver buffer contents will not be updated with the newly received data
from the master device. A read to the SPI_DR register returns this byte. All other
subsequently transmitted bytes are lost.
Clearing the OVR bit is done by a read of the SPI_DR register followed by a read access to
the SPI_SR register.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 597/995

Serial peripheral interface (SPI) RM0008

CRC error
This flag is used to verify the validity of the value received when the CRCEN bit in the
SPI_CR1 register is set. The CRCERR flag in the SPI_SR register is set if the value
received in the shift register (after transmission of the transmitter SPI_TXCRCR value) does
not match the receiver SPI_RXCRCR value.

23.3.9 Disabling the SPI

When transfer is terminated, the application can stop the communication by disabling the
SPI peripheral. This is done by resetting the SPE bit. Disabling the SPI peripheral while the
last data transfer is still ongoing does not affect the data reliability if the device is not in
Master transmit mode.
Note: In Master transmit mode (full-duplex or simplex transmit only), the application must make
sure that no data transfer is ongoing by checking the BSY flag in the SPI_SR register before
disabling the SPI master.

The SPI could function as an audio I2S interface when the I2S capability is enabled (by
setting the I2SMOD bit in the SPI_I2SCFGR register). This interface uses almost the same
pins, flags and interrupts as the SPI.
The I2S shares three common pins with the SPI:
● SD: Serial Data (mapped on the MOSI pin) to transmit or receive the two time-
multiplexed data channels (in simplex mode only).
● WS: Word Select (mapped on the NSS pin) is the data control signal output in master
mode and input in slave mode.
● CK: Serial Clock (mapped on the SCK pin) is the serial clock output in master mode
and serial clock input in slave mode.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 599/995

Serial peripheral interface (SPI) RM0008

An additional pin could be used when a master clock output is needed for some external
audio devices:
● MCK: Master Clock (mapped separately) is used, when the I2S is configured in master
mode (and when the MCKOE bit in the SPI_I2SPR register is set), to output this
additional clock generated at a preconfigured frequency rate equal to 256 × FS, where
FS is the audio sampling frequency.
The I2S uses its own clock generator to produce the communication clock when it is set in
master mode. This clock generator is also the source of the master clock output. Two
additional registers are available in I2S mode. One is linked to the clock generator
configuration SPI_I2SPR and the other one is a generic I2S configuration register
SPI_I2SCFGR (audio standard, slave/master mode, data format, packet frame, clock
polarity, etc.).
The SPI_CR1 register and all CRC registers are not used in the I2S mode. Likewise, the
SSOE bit in the SPI_CR2 register and the MODF and CRCERR bits in the SPI_SR are not
used.
The I2S uses the same SPI register for data transfer (SPI_DR) in 16-bit wide mode.

23.4.2 Supported audio protocols

The three-line bus has to handle only audio data generally time-multiplexed on two
channels: the right channel and the left channel. However there is only one 16-bit register for
the transmission or the reception. So, it is up to the software to write into the data register
the adequate value corresponding to the considered channel side, or to read the data from
the data register and to identify the corresponding channel by checking the CHSIDE bit in
the SPI_SR register. Channel Left is always sent first followed by the channel right (CHSIDE
has no meaning for the PCM protocol).
Four data and packet frames are available. Data may be sent with a format of:
● 16-bit data packed in 16-bit frame
● 16-bit data packed in 32-bit frame
● 24-bit data packed in 32-bit frame
● 32-bit data packed in 32-bit frame
When using 16-bit data extended on 32-bit packet, the first 16 bits (MSB) are the significant
bits, the 16-bit LSB is forced to 0 without any need for software action or DMA request (only
one read/write operation).
The 24-bit and 32-bit data frames need two CPU read or write operations to/from the
SPI_DR or two DMA operations if the DMA is preferred for the application. For 24-bit data
frame specifically, the 8 non-significant bits are extended to 32 bits with 0-bits (by hardware).
For all data formats and communication standards, the most significant bit is always sent
first (MSB first).
The I2S interface supports four audio standards, configurable using the I2SSTD[1:0] and
PCMSYNC bits in the SPI_I2SCFGR register.

I2S Phillips standard

For this standard, the WS signal is used to indicate which channel is being transmitted. It is
activated one CK clock cycle before the first bit (MSB) is available.

When 16-bit data frame extended to 32-bit channel frame is selected during the I2S
configuration phase, only one access to SPI_DR is required. The 16 remaining bits are
forced by hardware to 0x0000 to extend the data to 32-bit format.
If the data to transmit or the received data are 0x76A3 (0x76A30000 extended to 32-bit), the
operation shown in Figure 217 is required.

Figure 217. Example

Only one access to SPI_DR

0X76A3

For transmission, each time an MSB is written to SPI_DR, the TXE flag is set and its
interrupt, if allowed, is generated to load SPI_DR with the new value to send. This takes
place even if 0x0000 have not yet been sent because it is done by hardware.
For reception, the RXNE flag is set and its interrupt, if allowed, is generated when the first
16 MSB half-word is received.
In this way, more time is provided between two write or read operations, which prevents
underrun or overrun conditions (depending on the direction of the data transfer).

to the half-word MSB.
If the data to transmit or the received data are 0x76A3 (0x0000 76A3 extended to 32-bit),
the operation shown in Figure 226 is required.

TXE is asserted again as soon as the effective data (0x76A3) is sent on SD.
In reception mode, RXNE is asserted as soon as the significant half-word is received (and
not the 0x0000 field).
In this way, more time is provided between two write or read operations to prevent underrun
or overrun conditions.

23.4.3 Clock generator

The I2S bitrate determines the dataflow on the I2S data line and the I2S clock signal
frequency.
I2S bitrate = number of bits per channel × number of channels × sampling audio frequency
For a 16-bit audio, left and right channel, the I2S bitrate is calculated as follows:
I2S bitrate = 16 × 2 × FS
It will be: I2S bitrate = 32 x 2 x FS if the packet length is 32-bit wide.

Figure 229 presents the communication clock architecture. the I2SxCLK source is the
system clock (provided by the HSI, the HSE or the PLL and sourcing the AHB clock). For

clock in order to have maximum accuracy. This selection is made using the I2S2SRC and
I2S3SRC bits in the RCC_CFGR2 register.
The audio sampling frequency may be 96 kHz, 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz, 22.05 kHz,
16 kHz, 11.025 kHz or 8 kHz (or any other value within this range). In order to reach the
desired frequency, the linear divider needs to be programmed according to the formulas
below:

23.4.4 I2S master mode

The I2S can be configured in master mode. This means that the serial clock is generated on
the CK pin as well as the Word Select signal WS. Master clock (MCK) may be output or not,
thanks to the MCKOE bit in the SPI_I2SPR register.

Procedure
1. Select the I2SDIV[7:0] bits in the SPI_I2SPR register to define the serial clock baud
rate to reach the proper audio sample frequency. The ODD bit in the SPI_I2SPR
register also has to be defined.
2. Select the CKPOL bit to define the steady level for the communication clock. Set the
MCKOE bit in the SPI_I2SPR register if the master clock MCK needs to be provided to
the external DAC/ADC audio component (the I2SDIV and ODD values should be
computed depending on the state of the MCK output, for more details refer to
Section 23.4.3: Clock generator).
3. Set the I2SMOD bit in SPI_I2SCFGR to activate the I2S functionalities and choose the
I2S standard through the I2SSTD[1:0] and PCMSYNC bits, the data length through the
DATLEN[1:0] bits and the number of bits per channel by configuring the CHLEN bit.
Select also the I2S master mode and direction (Transmitter or Receiver) through the
I2SCFG[1:0] bits in the SPI_I2SCFGR register.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 609/995

Serial peripheral interface (SPI) RM0008

4. If needed, select all the potential interruption sources and the DMA capabilities by
writing the SPI_CR2 register.
5. The I2SE bit in SPI_I2SCFGR register must be set.
WS and CK are configured in output mode. MCK is also an output, if the MCKOE bit in
SPI_I2SPR is set.

Transmission sequence
The transmission sequence begins when a half-word is written into the Tx buffer.
Assumedly, the first data written into the Tx buffer correspond to the channel Left data.
When data are transferred from the Tx buffer to the shift register, TXE is set and data
corresponding to the channel Right have to be written into the Tx buffer. The CHSIDE flag
indicates which channel is to be transmitted. It has a meaning when the TXE flag is set
because the CHSIDE flag is updated when TXE goes high.
A full frame has to be considered as a Left channel data transmission followed by a Right
channel data transmission. It is not possible to have a partial frame where only the left
channel is sent.
The data half-word is parallel loaded into the 16-bit shift register during the first bit
transmission, and then shifted out, serially, to the MOSI/SD pin, MSB first. The TXE flag is
set after each transfer from the Tx buffer to the shift register and an interrupt is generated if
the TXEIE bit in the SPI_CR2 register is set.
For more details about the write operations depending on the I2S standard mode selected,
refer to Section 23.4.2: Supported audio protocols).
To ensure a continuous audio data transmission, it is mandatory to write the SPI_DR with
the next data to transmit before the end of the current transmission.
To switch off the I2S, by clearing I2SE, it is mandatory to wait for TXE = 0 and BSY = 0.

Reception sequence
The operating mode is the same as for the transmission mode except for the point 3, where
the configuration should set the master reception mode through the I2SCFG[1:0] bits.
Whatever the data or channel length, the audio data are received by 16-bit packets. This
means that each time the Rx buffer is full, the RXNE flag is set and an interrupt is generated
if the RXNEIE bit is set in SPI_CR2 register. Depending on the data and channel length
configuration, the audio value received for a right or left channel may result from one or two
receptions into the Rx buffer.
Clearing the RXNE bit is performed by reading the SPI_DR register.
CHSIDE is updated after each reception. It is sensitive to the WS signal generated by the
I2S cell.
For more details about the read operations depending on the I2S standard mode selected,
refer to Section 23.4.2: Supported audio protocols.
If data are received while the precedent received data have not been read yet, an overrun is
generated and the OVR flag is set. If the ERRIE bit is set in the SPI_CR2 register, an
interrupt is generated to indicate the error.

610/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Serial peripheral interface (SPI)

To switch off the I2S in reception mode, I2SE has to be cleared during and before the end of
the last data reception. Even if I2SE is switched off while the last data are being transferred,
the clock and the transfer are maintained until the end of the current data transmission.

23.4.5 I2S slave mode

For the slave configuration, the I2S can be configured in transmission or reception mode.
The operating mode is following mainly the same rules as described for the I2S master
configuration. In slave mode, there is no clock to be generated by the I2S interface. The
clock and WS signals are input from the external master connected to the I2S interface.
There is then no need, for the user, to configure the clock.
The configuration steps to follow are listed below:
1. Set the I2SMOD bit in the SPI_I2SCFGR register to reach the I2S functionalities and
choose the I2S standard through the I2SSTD[1:0] bits, the data length through the
DATLEN[1:0] bits and the number of bits per channel for the frame configuring the
CHLEN bit. Select also the mode (transmission or reception) for the slave through the
I2SCFG[1:0] bits in SPI_I2SCFGR register.
2. If needed, select all the potential interrupt sources and the DMA capabilities by writing
the SPI_CR2 register.
3. The I2SE bit in SPI_I2SCFGR register must be set.

Transmission sequence
The transmission sequence begins when a half-word (corresponding to channel Left data) is
written to the Tx buffer. When data are transferred from the Tx buffer to the shift register, the
TXE flag is set and data corresponding to the channel Right have to be written into the Tx
buffer. The CHSIDE flag indicates which channel is to be transmitted. Compared to the
master transmission mode, in slave mode, CHSIDE is sensitive to the WS signal coming
from the external master. This means that the slave needs to be ready to transmit the first
data before the clock is generated by the master. WS assertion corresponds to channel Left
transmitted first.
Note: The I2SE has to be written at least two PCLK cycles before the first clock of the master
comes on the CK line.
The data half-word is parallel-loaded into the 16-bit shift register (from the internal bus)
during the first bit transmission, and then shifted out serially to the MOSI/SD pin MSB first.
The TXE flag is set after each transfer from the Tx buffer to the shift register and an interrupt
is generated if the TXEIE bit in the SPI_CR2 register is set.
Note that the TXE flag should be checked to be at 1 before attempting to write the Tx buffer.
For more details about the write operations depending on the I2S standard mode selected,
refer to Section 23.4.2: Supported audio protocols.
To secure a continuous audio data transmission, it is mandatory to write the SPI_DR
register with the next data to transmit before the end of the current transmission. An
underrun flag is set and an interrupt may be generated if the data are not written into the
SPI_DR register before the first clock edge of the next data communication. This indicates
to the software that the transferred data are wrong. If the ERRIE bit is set into the SPI_CR2
register, an interrupt is generated when the UDR flag in the SPI_SR register goes high. In
this case, it is mandatory to switch off the I2S and to restart a data transfer starting from the
channel left.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 611/995

Serial peripheral interface (SPI) RM0008

Reception sequence
The operating mode is the same as for the transmission mode except for the point 1. where
the configuration should set the master reception mode using the I2SCFG[1:0] bits in the
SPI_I2SCFGR register.
Whatever the data length or the channel length, the audio data are received by 16-bit
packets. This means that each time the RX buffer is full, the RXNE flag in the SPI_SR
register is set and an interrupt is generated if the RXNEIE bit is set in the SPI_CR2 register.
Depending on the data length and channel length configuration, the audio value received for
a right or left channel may result from one or two receptions into the RX buffer.
The CHSIDE flag is updated each time data are received to be read from SPI_DR. It is
sensitive to the external WS line managed by the external master component.
Clearing the RXNE bit is performed by reading the SPI_DR register.
For more details about the read operations depending the I2S standard mode selected, refer
to Section 23.4.2: Supported audio protocols.
If data are received while the precedent received data have not yet been read, an overrun is
generated and the OVR flag is set. If the bit ERRIE is set in the SPI_CR2 register, an
interrupt is generated to indicate the error.
To switch off the I2S in reception mode, I2SE has to be cleared during and before the end of
the last data reception. Even if I2SE is switched off while the last data is being transferred,
the clock and the transfer go on until the end of the last data transmission.
Note: The external master components should have the capability to send/receive data on 16-bit
or 32-bit packet via an audio channel.

23.4.6 Status flags

Three status flags are provided for the application to fully monitor the state of the I2S bus.

Busy flag (BSY)

This flag indicates the state of the I2S communication layer. It is set to indicate that the I2S is
busy communicating and/or that there is a valid data half-word in the Tx buffer awaiting
transmission. The purpose of this flag is to indicate if there is any communication ongoing
on the I2S bus or not. This flag becomes set as soon as:
1. Data are written into the SPI_DR register in master mode
2. The CK clock is present in slave mode
The Busy flag is reset as soon as a half-word is transmitted/received. It is set and cleared by
hardware. This flag can be monitored to avoid write collision errors. Writing to it has no
effect. It is meaningful only when the I2SE bit in the SPI_I2SCFGR register is set.

Tx buffer empty flag (TXE)

When set, this flag indicates that the Tx buffer is empty and the next data to be transmitted
can then be loaded into it. The TXE flag is reset when the Tx buffer already contains data to
be transmitted. It is also reset when the I2S is disabled (I2SE bit is reset).

RX buffer not empty (RXNE)

When set, this flag indicates that there are valid received data in the RX Buffer. It is reset
when SPI_DR register is read.

612/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Serial peripheral interface (SPI)

Channel Side flag (CHSIDE)

In transmission mode, this flag is refreshed when TXE goes high. It indicates the channel
side to which the data to transfer on SD has to belong. In case of an underrun error event in
slave transmission mode, this flag is not reliable and I2S needs to be switched off and
switched on before resuming the communication.
In reception mode, this flag is refreshed when data are received into SPI_DR. It indicates
from which channel side data have been received. Note that in case of error (like OVR) this
flag becomes meaningless and the I2S should be reset by disabling and then enabling it
(with configuration if it needs changing).
This flag has no meaning in the PCM standard (for both Short and Long frame modes).
When the OVR or UDR flag in the SPI_SR is set and the ERRIE bit in SPI_CR2 is also set,
an interrupt is generated. This interrupt can be cleared by reading the SPI_SR status
register (once the interrupt source has been cleared).

23.4.7 Error flags

There are two error flags for the I2S cell.

Underrun flag (UDR)

In slave transmission mode this flag is set when the first clock for data transmission appears
while the software has not yet loaded any value into SPI_DR. It is available when the
I2SMOD bit in SPI_I2SCFGR is set. An interrupt may be generated if the ERRIE bit in
SPI_CR2 is set.
The UDR bit is cleared by a read operation on the SPI_SR register.

Overrun flag (OVR)

This flag is set when data are received and the previous data have not yet been read from
SPI_DR. As a result, the incoming data are lost. An interrupt may be generated if the ERRIE
bit is set in SPI_CR2.
In this case, the receive buffer contents are not updated with the newly received data from
the transmitter device. A read operation to the SPI_DR register returns the previous
correctly received data. All other subsequently transmitted half-words are lost.
Clearing the OVR bit is done by a read operation on the SPI_DR register followed by a read
access to the SPI_SR register.

23.4.8 I2S interrupts

DMA is working in exactly the same way as for the SPI mode. There is no difference on the
I2S. Only the CRC feature is not available in I2S mode since there is no data transfer
protection system.

Bits 15:0 DR[15:0]: Data register

Data received or to be transmitted.
The data register is split into 2 buffers - one for writing (Transmit Buffer) and another one for reading
(Receive buffer). A write to the data register will write into the Tx buffer and a read from the data
register will return the value held in the Rx buffer.
Notes for the SPI mode:
Depending on the data frame format selection bit (DFF in SPI_CR1 register), the data sent or
received is either 8-bit or 16-bit. This selection has to be made before enabling the SPI to
ensure correct operation.
For an 8-bit data frame, the buffers are 8-bit and only the LSB of the register (SPI_DR[7:0]) is
used for transmission/reception. When in reception mode, the MSB of the register
(SPI_DR[15:8]) is forced to 0.
For a 16-bit data frame, the buffers are 16-bit and the entire register, SPI_DR[15:0] is used for
transmission/reception.

I2C (inter-integrated circuit) bus Interface serves as an interface between the microcontroller
and the serial I2C bus. It provides multimaster capability, and controls all I2C bus-specific
sequencing, protocol, arbitration and timing. It supports standard and fast speed modes. It is
also SMBus 2.0 compatible.
It may be used for a variety of purposes, including CRC generation and verification, SMBus
(system management bus) and PMBus (power management bus).
Depending on specific device implementation DMA capability can be available for reduced
CPU overload.

implementation.

24.3 I2C functional description

In addition to receiving and transmitting data, this interface converts it from serial to parallel
format and vice versa. The interrupts are enabled or disabled by software. The interface is
connected to the I2C bus by a data pin (SDA) and by a clock pin (SCL). It can be connected
with a standard (up to 100 kHz) or fast (up to 400 kHz) I2C bus.

24.3.1 Mode selection

The interface can operate in one of the four following modes:
● Slave transmitter
● Slave receiver
● Master transmitter
● Master receiver
By default, it operates in slave mode. The interface automatically switches from slave to
master, after it generates a START condition and from master to slave, if an arbitration loss
or a Stop generation occurs, allowing multimaster capability.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 625/995

Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface RM0008

Communication flow
In Master mode, the I2C interface initiates a data transfer and generates the clock signal. A
serial data transfer always begins with a start condition and ends with a stop condition. Both
start and stop conditions are generated in master mode by software.
In Slave mode, the interface is capable of recognizing its own addresses (7 or 10-bit), and
the General Call address. The General Call address detection may be enabled or disabled
by software.
Data and addresses are transferred as 8-bit bytes, MSB first. The first byte(s) following the
start condition contain the address (one in 7-bit mode, two in 10-bit mode). The address is
always transmitted in Master mode.
A 9th clock pulse follows the 8 clock cycles of a byte transfer, during which the receiver must
send an acknowledge bit to the transmitter. Refer to the following figure.

24.3.2 I2C slave mode

By default the I2C interface operates in Slave mode. To switch from default Slave mode to
Master mode a Start condition generation is needed.
The peripheral input clock must be programmed in the I2C_CR2 register in order to
generate correct timings. The peripheral input clock frequency must be at least:
● 2 MHz in Standard mode
● 4 MHz in Fast mode
As soon as a start condition is detected, the address is received from the SDA line and sent
to the shift register. Then it is compared with the address of the interface (OAR1) and with
OAR2 (if ENDUAL=1) or the General Call address (if ENGC = 1).
Note: In 10-bit addressing mode, the comparison includes the header sequence (11110xx0),
where xx denotes the two most significant bits of the address.
Header or address not matched: the interface ignores it and waits for another Start
condition.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 627/995

Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface RM0008

Header matched (10-bit mode only): the interface generates an acknowledge pulse if the
ACK bit is set and waits for the 8-bit slave address.
Address matched: the interface generates in sequence:
● An acknowledge pulse if the ACK bit is set
● The ADDR bit is set by hardware and an interrupt is generated if the ITEVFEN bit is
set.
● If ENDUAL=1, the software has to read the DUALF bit to check which slave address
has been acknowledged.
In 10-bit mode, after receiving the address sequence the slave is always in Receiver mode.
It will enter Transmitter mode on receiving a repeated Start condition followed by the header
sequence with matching address bits and the least significant bit set (11110xx1).
The TRA bit indicates whether the slave is in Receiver or Transmitter mode.

Slave transmitter
Following the address reception and after clearing ADDR, the slave sends bytes from the
DR register to the SDA line via the internal shift register.
The slave stretches SCL low until ADDR is cleared and DR filled with the data to be sent
(see Figure 233 Transfer sequencing EV1 EV3).
When the acknowledge pulse is received:
● The TxE bit is set by hardware with an interrupt if the ITEVFEN and the ITBUFEN bits
are set.
If TxE is set and some data were not written in the I2C_DR register before the end of the
next data transmission, the BTF bit is set and the interface waits until BTF is cleared by a
read to I2C_SR1 followed by a write to the I2C_DR register, stretching SCL low.

If RxNE is set and the data in the DR register is not read before the end of the next data
reception, the BTF bit is set and the interface waits until BTF is cleared by a read from

Closing slave communication

After the last data byte is transferred a Stop Condition is generated by the master. The
interface detects this condition and sets,
● The STOPF bit and generates an interrupt if the ITEVFEN bit is set.
Then the interface waits for a read of the SR1 register followed by a write to the CR1 register
(see Figure 234 Transfer sequencing EV4).

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 629/995

Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface RM0008

24.3.3 I2C master mode

In Master mode, the I2C interface initiates a data transfer and generates the clock signal. A
serial data transfer always begins with a Start condition and ends with a Stop condition.
Master mode is selected as soon as the Start condition is generated on the bus with a
START bit.
The following is the required sequence in master mode.
● Program the peripheral input clock in I2C_CR2 Register in order to generate correct
timings
● Configure the clock control registers
● Configure the rise time register
● Program the I2C_CR1 register to enable the peripheral
● Set the START bit in the I2C_CR1 register to generate a Start condition
The peripheral input clock frequency must be at least:
● 2 MHz in Standard mode
● 4 MHz in Fast mode

Start condition
Setting the START bit causes the interface to generate a Start condition and to switch to
Master mode (M/SL bit set) when the BUSY bit is cleared.
Note: In master mode, setting the START bit causes the interface to generate a ReStart condition
at the end of the current byte transfer.
Once the Start condition is sent:
● The SB bit is set by hardware and an interrupt is generated if the ITEVFEN bit is set.
Then the master waits for a read of the SR1 register followed by a write in the DR register
with the Slave address (see Figure 235 & Figure 236 Transfer sequencing EV5).

630/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface

Slave address transmission

Then the slave address is sent to the SDA line via the internal shift register.
● In 10-bit addressing mode, sending the header sequence causes the following event:
– The ADD10 bit is set by hardware and an interrupt is generated if the ITEVFEN bit
is set.
Then the master waits for a read of the SR1 register followed by a write in the DR
register with the second address byte (see Figure 235 & Figure 236 Transfer
sequencing).
– The ADDR bit is set by hardware and an interrupt is generated if the ITEVFEN bit
is set.
Then the master waits for a read of the SR1 register followed by a read of the SR2
register (see Figure 235 & Figure 236 Transfer sequencing).
● In 7-bit addressing mode, one address byte is sent.
As soon as the address byte is sent,
– The ADDR bit is set by hardware and an interrupt is generated if the ITEVFEN bit
is set.
Then the master waits for a read of the SR1 register followed by a read of the SR2
register (see Figure 235 & Figure 236 Transfer sequencing).
The master can decide to enter Transmitter or Receiver mode depending on the LSB of the
slave address sent.
● In 7-bit addressing mode,
– To enter Transmitter mode, a master sends the slave address with LSB reset.
– To enter Receiver mode, a master sends the slave address with LSB set.
● In 10-bit addressing mode,
– To enter Transmitter mode, a master sends the header (11110xx0) and then the
slave address with LSB reset, (where xx denotes the two most significant bits of
the address).
– To enter Receiver mode, a master sends the header (11110xx0) and then the
slave address with LSB reset. Then it should send a repeated Start condition
followed by the header (11110xx1), (where xx denotes the two most significant bits
of the address).
The TRA bit indicates whether the master is in Receiver or Transmitter mode.

Master transmitter
Following the address transmission and after clearing ADDR, the master sends bytes from
the DR register to the SDA line via the internal shift register.
The master waits until the first data byte is written into I2C_DR (see Figure 235 Transfer
sequencing EV8_1).
When the acknowledge pulse is received:
● The TxE bit is set by hardware and an interrupt is generated if the ITEVFEN and
ITBUFEN bits are set.
If TxE is set and a data byte was not written in the DR register before the end of the last data
transmission, BTF is set and the interface waits until BTF is cleared by a read from I2C_SR1
followed by a write to I2C_DR, stretching SCL low.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 631/995

Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface RM0008

Closing the communication

After writing the last byte to the DR register, the STOP bit is set by software to generate a
Stop condition (see Figure 235 Transfer sequencing EV8_2). The interface goes
automatically back to slave mode (M/SL bit cleared).
Note: Stop condition should be programmed during EV8_2 event, when either TxE or BTF is set.

Master receiver
Following the address transmission and after clearing ADDR, the I2C interface enters
Master Receiver mode. In this mode the interface receives bytes from the SDA line into the
DR register via the internal shift register. After each byte the interface generates in
sequence:
● An acknowledge pulse if the ACK bit is set
● The RxNE bit is set and an interrupt is generated if the ITEVFEN and ITBUFEN bits are
set (see Figure 236 Transfer sequencing EV7).
If the RxNE bit is set and the data in the DR register is not read before the end of the last
data reception, the BTF bit is set by hardware and the interface waits until BTF is cleared by
a read in the SR1 register followed by a read in the DR register, stretching SCL low.

RM0008 Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface

Closing the communication

The master sends a NACK for the last byte received from the slave. After receiving this
NACK, the slave releases the control of the SCL and SDA lines. Then the master can send
a Stop/Re-Start condition.
● In order to generate the non-acknowledge pulse after the last received data byte, the
ACK bit must be cleared just after reading the second last data byte (after second last
RxNE event).
● In order to generate the Stop/Re-Start condition, software must set the STOP/START
bit just after reading the second last data byte (after the second last RxNE event).
● In case a single byte is to be received, the Acknowledge disable and the Stop condition
generation are made just after EV6 (in EV6_1, just after ADDR is cleared).
After the Stop condition generation, the interface goes automatically back to slave mode
(M/SL bit cleared).

24.3.4 Error conditions

The following are the error conditions which may cause communication to fail.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 633/995

Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface RM0008

Bus error (BERR)

This error occurs when the I2C interface detects a Stop or a Start condition during a byte
transfer. In this case,
● The BERR bit is set and an interrupt is generated if the ITERREN bit is set
● In case of Slave: data is discarded and the lines are released by hardware:
– in case of misplaced start, the slave considers it is a restart and waits for address,
or stop condition.
– in case of misplaced stop, the slave reacts like for a stop condition and the lines
are released by hardware.

Acknowledge failure (AF)

This error occurs when the interface detects a non-acknowledge bit. In this case,
● The AF bit is set and an interrupt is generated if the ITERREN bit is set
● A transmitter which receives a NACK must reset the communication:
– If Slave: lines are released by hardware
– If Master: a Stop condition must be generated by software

Arbitration lost (ARLO)

This error occurs when the I2C interface detects an arbitration lost condition. In this case,
● the ARLO bit is set by hardware (and an interrupt is generated if the ITERREN bit is
set)
● the I2C Interface goes automatically back to slave mode (the M/SL bit is cleared). When
the I2C loses the arbitration, it is not able to acknowledge its slave address in the same
transfer, but it can acknowledge it after a repeated Start from the winning master.
● lines are released by hardware

Overrun/underrun error (OVR)

An overrun error can occur in slave mode when clock stretching is disabled and the I2C
interface is receiving data. The interface has received a byte (RxNE=1) and the data in DR
has not been read, before the next byte is received by the interface. In this case,
● The last received byte is lost.
● In case of Overrun error, software should clear the RxNE bit and the transmitter should
re-transmit the last received byte.
Underrun error can occur in slave mode when clock stretching is disabled and the I2C
interface is transmitting data. The interface has not updated the DR with the next byte
(TxE=1), before the clock comes for the next byte. In this case,
● The same byte in the DR register will be sent again
● The user should make sure that data received on the receiver side during an underrun
error are discarded and that the next bytes are written within the clock low time
specified in the I2C bus standard.
For the first byte to be transmitted, the DR must be written after ADDR is cleared and before
the first SCL rising edge. If not possible, the receiver must discard the first data.

634/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface

24.3.5 SDA/SCL line control

● If clock stretching is enabled:
– Transmitter mode: If TxE=1 and BTF=1: the interface holds the clock line low
before transmission to wait for the microcontroller to read SR1 and then write the
byte in the Data Register (both buffer and shift register are empty).
– Receiver mode: If RxNE=1 and BTF=1: the interface holds the clock line low after
reception to wait for the microcontroller to read SR1 and then read the byte in the
Data Register (both buffer and shift register are full).
● If clock stretching is disabled in Slave mode:
– Overrun Error in case of RxNE=1 and no read of DR has been done before the
next byte is received. The last received byte is lost.
– Underrun Error in case TxE=1 and no write into DR has been done before the next
byte must be transmitted. The same byte will be sent again.
– Write Collision not managed.

24.3.6 SMBus
Introduction
The System Management Bus (SMBus) is a two-wire interface through which various
devices can communicate with each other and with the rest of the system. It is based on I2C
principles of operation. SMBus provides a control bus for system and power management
related tasks. A system may use SMBus to pass messages to and from devices instead of
toggling individual control lines.
The System Management Bus Specification refers to three types of devices. A slave is a
device that is receiving or responding to a command. A master is a device that issues
commands, generates the clocks, and terminates the transfer. A host is a specialized master
that provides the main interface to the system's CPU. A host must be a master-slave and
must support the SMBus host notify protocol. Only one host is allowed in a system.

Similarities between SMBus and I2C

● 2 wire bus protocol (1 Clk, 1 Data) + SMBus Alert line optional
● Master-slave communication, Master provides clock
● Multi master capability
● SMBus data format similar to I2C 7-bit addressing format (Figure 231).

Differences between SMBus and I2C

The following table describes the differences between SMBus and I2C.

Table 170. SMBus vs. I2C

Different address types (reserved, dynamic etc.)
types
Different bus protocols (quick command, process
No bus protocols
call etc.)

SMBus application usage

With System Management Bus, a device can provide manufacturer information, tell the
system what its model/part number is, save its state for a suspend event, report different
types of errors, accept control parameters, and return its status. SMBus provides a control
bus for system and power management related tasks.

Device identification
Any device that exists on the System Management Bus as a slave has a unique address
called the Slave Address. For the list of reserved slave addresses, refer to the SMBus
specification ver. 2.0 (http://smbus.org/specs/).

Bus protocols
The SMBus specification supports up to 9 bus protocols. For more details of these protocols
and SMBus address types, refer to SMBus specification ver. 2.0 (http://smbus.org/specs/).
These protocols should be implemented by the user software.

Address resolution protocol (ARP)

SMBus slave address conflicts can be resolved by dynamically assigning a new unique
address to each slave device. The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) has the following
attributes:
● Address assignment uses the standard SMBus physical layer arbitration mechanism
● Assigned addresses remain constant while device power is applied; address retention
through device power loss is also allowed
● No additional SMBus packet overhead is incurred after address assignment. (i.e.
subsequent accesses to assigned slave addresses have the same overhead as
accesses to fixed address devices.)
● Any SMBus master can enumerate the bus

Unique device identifier (UDID)

In order to provide a mechanism to isolate each device for the purpose of address
assignment, each device must implement a unique device identifier (UDID).
For the details on 128 bit UDID and more information on ARP, refer to SMBus specification
ver. 2.0 (http://smbus.org/specs/).

SMBus alert mode

SMBus Alert is an optional signal with an interrupt line for devices that want to trade their
ability to master for a pin. SMBALERT is a wired-AND signal just as the SCL and SDA
signals are. SMBALERT is used in conjunction with the SMBus General Call Address.
Messages invoked with the SMBus are 2 bytes long.

636/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface

A slave-only device can signal the host through SMBALERT that it wants to talk by setting
ALERT bit in I2C_CR1 register. The host processes the interrupt and simultaneously
accesses all SMBALERT devices through the Alert Response Address (known as ARA
having a value 0001 100X). Only the device(s) which pulled SMBALERT low will
acknowledge the Alert Response Address. This status is identified using SMBALERT Status
flag in I2C_SR1 register. The host performs a modified Receive Byte operation. The 7 bit
device address provided by the slave transmit device is placed in the 7 most significant bits
of the byte. The eighth bit can be a zero or one.
If more than one device pulls SMBALERT low, the highest priority (lowest address) device
will win communication rights via standard arbitration during the slave address transfer. After
acknowledging the slave address the device must disengage its SMBALERT pull-down. If
the host still sees SMBALERT low when the message transfer is complete, it knows to read
the ARA again.
A host which does not implement the SMBALERT signal may periodically access the ARA.
For more details on SMBus Alert mode, refer to SMBus specification ver. 2.0
(http://smbus.org/specs/).

Timeout error
There are differences in the timing specifications between I2C and SMBus.
SMBus defines a clock low timeout, TIMEOUT of 35 ms. Also SMBus specifies TLOW:
SEXT as the cumulative clock low extend time for a slave device. SMBus specifies TLOW:
MEXT as the cumulative clock low extend time for a master device. For more details on
these timeouts, refer to SMBus specification ver. 2.0 (http://smbus.org/specs/).
The status flag Timeout or Tlow Error in I2C_SR1 shows the status of this feature.

How to use the interface in SMBus mode

To switch from I2C mode to SMBus mode, the following sequence should be performed.
● Set the SMBus bit in the I2C_CR1 register
● Configure the SMBTYPE and ENARP bits in the I2C_CR1 register as required for the
application
If you want to configure the device as a master, follow the Start condition generation
procedure in Section 24.3.3: I2C master mode. Otherwise, follow the sequence in
Section 24.3.2: I2C slave mode.
The application has to control the various SMBus protocols by software.
● SMB Device Default Address acknowledged if ENARP=1 and SMBTYPE=0
● SMB Host Header acknowledged if ENARP=1 and SMBTYPE=1
● SMB Alert Response Address acknowledged if SMBALERT=1

24.3.7 DMA requests

DMA requests (when enabled) are generated only for data transfer. DMA requests are
generated by Data Register becoming empty in transmission and Data Register becoming
full in reception. The DMA request must be served before the end of the current byte
transfer. When the number of data transfers which has been programmed for the

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 637/995

Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface RM0008

corresponding DMA channel is reached, the DMA controller sends an End of Transfer EOT
signal to the I2C interface and generates a Transfer Complete interrupt if enabled:
● Master transmitter: In the interrupt routine after the EOT interrupt, disable DMA
requests then wait for a BTF event before programming the Stop condition.
● Master receiver: when the number of bytes to be received is equal to or greater than
two, the DMA controller sends a hardware signal, EOT_1, corresponding to the last but
one data byte (number_of_bytes – 1). If, in the I2C_CR2 register, the LAST bit is set,
I2C automatically sends a NACK after the next byte following EOT_1. The user can
generate a Stop condition in the DMA Transfer Complete interrupt routine if enabled.

Transmission using DMA

DMA mode can be enabled for transmission by setting the DMAEN bit in the I2C_CR2
register. Data will be loaded from a Memory area configured using the DMA peripheral (refer
to the DMA specification) to the I2C_DR register whenever the TxE bit is set. To map a DMA
channel for I2C transmission, perform the following sequence. Here x is the channel number.
1.Set the I2C_DR register address in the DMA_CPARx register. The data will be
moved to this address from the memory after each TxE event.
2. Set the memory address in the DMA_CMARx register. The data will be loaded
into I2C_DR from this memory after each TxE event.
3. Configure the total number of bytes to be transferred in the DMA_CNDTRx
register. After each TxE event, this value will be decremented.
4. Configure the channel priority using the PL[0:1] bits in the DMA_CCRx register
5. Set the DIR bit and, in the DMA_CCRx register, configure interrupts after half
transfer or full transfer depending on application requirements.
6. Activate the channel by setting the EN bit in the DMA_CCRx register.
When the number of data transfers which has been programmed in the DMA Controller
registers is reached, the DMA controller sends an End of Transfer EOT/ EOT_1 signal to the
I2C interface and the DMA generates an interrupt, if enabled, on the DMA channel interrupt
vector.
Note: Do not enable the ITBUFEN bit in the I2C_CR2 register if DMA is used for transmission.

Reception using DMA

DMA mode can be enabled for reception by setting the DMAEN bit in the I2C_CR2 register.
Data will be loaded from the I2C_DR register to a Memory area configured using the DMA
peripheral (refer to the DMA specification) whenever a data byte is received. To map a DMA
channel for I2C reception, perform the following sequence. Here x is the channel number.
1. Set the I2C_DR register address in DMA_CPARx register. The data will be moved from
this address to the memory after each RxNE event.
2. Set the memory address in the DMA_CMARx register. The data will be loaded from the
I2C_DR register to this memory area after each RxNE event.
3. Configure the total number of bytes to be transferred in the DMA_CNDTRx register.
After each RxNE event, this value will be decremented.
4. Configure the channel priority using the PL[0:1] bits in the DMA_CCRx register
5. Reset the DIR bit and configure interrupts in the DMA_CCRx register after half transfer
or full transfer depending on application requirements.
6. Activate the channel by setting the EN bit in the DMA_CCRx register.

638/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface

When the number of data transfers which has been programmed in the DMA Controller
registers is reached, the DMA controller sends an End of Transfer EOT/ EOT_1 signal to the
I2C interface and DMA generates an interrupt, if enabled, on the DMA channel interrupt
vector.
Note: Do not enable the ITBUFEN bit in the I2C_CR2 register if DMA is used for reception.

24.3.8 Packet error checking

A PEC calculator has been implemented to improve the reliability of communication. The
PEC is calculated by using the C(x) = x8 + x2 + x + 1 CRC-8 polynomial serially on each bit.
● PEC calculation is enabled by setting the ENPEC bit in the I2C_CR1 register. PEC is a
CRC-8 calculated on all message bytes including addresses and R/W bits.
– In transmission: set the PEC transfer bit in the I2C_CR1 register after the TxE
event corresponding to the last byte. The PEC will be transferred after the last
transmitted byte.
– In reception: set the PEC bit in the I2C_CR1 register after the RxNE event
corresponding to the last byte so that the receiver sends a NACK if the next
received byte is not equal to the internally calculated PEC. In case of Master-
Receiver, a NACK must follow the PEC whatever the check result. PEC must be
set before the ACK pulse of the current byte reception.
● A PECERR error flag/interrupt is also available in the I2C_SR1 register.
● If DMA and PEC calculation are both enabled:-
– In transmission: when the I2C interface receives an EOT signal from the DMA
controller, it automatically sends a PEC after the last byte.
– In reception: when the I2C interface receives an EOT_1 signal from the DMA
controller, it will automatically consider the next byte as a PEC and will check it. A
DMA request is generated after PEC reception.
● To allow intermediate PEC transfers, a control bit is available in the I2C_CR2 register
(LAST bit) to determine if it is really the last DMA transfer or not. If it is the last DMA
request for a master receiver, a NACK is automatically sent after the last received byte.
● PEC calculation is corrupted by an arbitration loss.

transmitted is put in DR once the transmission is started (TxE=1)
–Receiver mode: Received byte is copied into DR (RxNE=1). A continuous transmit stream
can be maintained if DR is read before the next data byte is received (RxNE=1).
Note: In slave mode, the address is not copied into DR.
Note: Write collision is not managed (DR can be written if TxE=0).
Note: If an ARLO event occurs on ACK pulse, the received byte is not copied into DR and so
cannot be read.

Tow = 16 * CCR * TPCLK1
For instance: in standard mode, to generate a 100 kHz SCL frequency:
If FREQR = 08, TPCLK1 = 125 ns so CCR must be programmed with 0x28
(0x28 <=> 40d x 125 ns = 5000 ns.)
Note: 1. The minimum allowed value is 0x04, except in FAST DUTY mode where the

These bits must be programmed with the maximum SCL rise time given in the I2C bus
specification, incremented by 1.
For instance: in standard mode, the maximum allowed SCL rise time is 1000 ns.
If, in the I2C_CR2 register, the value of FREQ[5:0] bits is equal to 0x08 and TPCLK1 = 125 ns
therefore the TRISE[5:0] bits must be programmed with 09h.
(1000 ns / 125 ns = 8 + 1)
The filter value can also be added to TRISE[5:0].
If the result is not an integer, TRISE[5:0] must be programmed with the integer part, in order
to respect the tHIGH parameter.
Note: TRISE[5:0] must be configured only when the I2C is disabled (PE = 0).

25.1 USART introduction

The universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART) offers a flexible
means of full-duplex data exchange with external equipment requiring an industry standard
NRZ asynchronous serial data format. The USART offers a very wide range of baud rates
using a fractional baud rate generator.
It supports synchronous one-way communication and half-duplex single wire
communication. It also supports the LIN (local interconnection network), Smartcard Protocol
and IrDA (infrared data association) SIR ENDEC specifications, and modem operations
(CTS/RTS). It allows multiprocessor communication.
High speed data communication is possible by using the DMA for multibuffer configuration.

25.2 USART main features

● Full duplex, asynchronous communications
● NRZ standard format (Mark/Space)
● Fractional baud rate generator systems
– A common programmable transmit and receive baud rates up to 4.5 MBits/s
● Programmable data word length (8 or 9 bits)
● Configurable stop bits - support for 1 or 2 stop bits
● LIN Master Synchronous Break send capability and LIN slave break detection
capability
– 13-bit break generation and 10/11 bit break detection when USART is hardware
configured for LIN
● Transmitter clock output for synchronous transmission
● IrDA SIR Encoder Decoder
– Support for 3/16 bit duration for normal mode
● Smartcard Emulation Capability
– The Smartcard interface supports the asynchronous protocol Smartcards as
defined in ISO 7816-3 standards

25.3 USART functional description

The interface is externally connected to another device by three pins (see Figure 238). Any
USART bidirectional communication requires a minimum of two pins: Receive Data In (RX)
and Transmit Data Out (TX):
RX: Receive Data Input is the serial data input. Oversampling techniques are used for data
recovery by discriminating between valid incoming data and noise.
TX: Transmit Data Output. When the transmitter is disabled, the output pin returns to its I/O
port configuration. When the transmitter is enabled and nothing is to be transmitted, the TX
pin is at high level. In single-wire and smartcard modes, this I/O is used to transmit and
receive the data (at USART level, data are then received on SW_RX).

654/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

Through these pins, serial data is transmitted and received in normal USART mode as
frames comprising:
● An Idle Line prior to transmission or reception
● A start bit
● A data word (8 or 9 bits) least significant bit first
● 0.5,1, 1.5, 2 Stop bits indicating that the frame is complete
● This interface uses a fractional baud rate generator - with a 12-bit mantissa and 4-bit
fraction
● A status register (USART_SR)
● Data Register (USART_DR)
● A baud rate register (USART_BRR) - 12-bit mantissa and 4-bit fraction.
● A Guardtime Register (USART_GTPR) in case of Smartcard mode.
Refer to Section 25.6: USART registers on page 683 for the definitions of each bit.
The following pin is required to interface in synchronous mode:
● SCLK: Transmitter clock output. This pin outputs the transmitter data clock for
synchronous transmission corresponding to SPI master mode (no clock pulses on start
bit and stop bit, and a software option to send a clock pulse on the last data bit). In
parallel data can be received synchronously on RX. This can be used to control
peripherals that have shift registers (e.g. LCD drivers). The clock phase and polarity
are software programmable. In smartcard mode, SCLK can provide the clock to the
smartcard.
The following pins are required to interface in IrDA mode:
● IrDA_RDI: Receive Data Input is the data input in IrDA mode.
● IrDA_TDO: Transmit Data Output in IrDA mode.
the following pins are required in Hardware flow control mode:
● nCTS: Clear To Send blocks the data transmission at the end of the current transfer
when high
● nRTS: Request to send indicates that the USART is ready to receive a data (when
low).

25.3.1 USART character description

Word length may be selected as being either 8 or 9 bits by programming the M bit in the
USART_CR1 register (see Figure 239).
The TX pin is in low state during the start bit. It is in high state during the stop bit.
An Idle character is interpreted as an entire frame of “1”s followed by the start bit of the next
frame which contains data (The number of “1” ‘s will include the number of stop bits).
A Break character is interpreted on receiving “0”s for a frame period. At the end of the
break frame the transmitter inserts either 1 or 2 stop bits (logic “1” bit) to acknowledge the
start bit.
Transmission and reception are driven by a common baud rate generator, the clock for each
is generated when the enable bit is set respectively for the transmitter and receiver.
The details of each block is given below.

25.3.2 Transmitter
The transmitter can send data words of either 8 or 9 bits depending on the M bit status.
When the transmit enable bit (TE) is set, the data in the transmit shift register is output on
the TX pin and the corresponding clock pulses are output on the SCLK pin.

Character transmission
During an USART transmission, data shifts out least significant bit first on the TX pin. In this
mode, the USART_DR register consists of a buffer (TDR) between the internal bus and the
transmit shift register (see Figure 238).
Every character is preceded by a start bit which is a logic level low for one bit period. The
character is terminated by a configurable number of stop bits.
The following stop bits are supported by USART: 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 stop bits.
Note: 1 The TE bit should not be reset during transmission of data. Resetting the TE bit during the
transmission will corrupt the data on the TX pin as the baud rate counters will get frozen.
The current data being transmitted will be lost.
2 An idle frame will be sent after the TE bit is enabled.

Configurable stop bits

The number of stop bits to be transmitted with every character can be programmed in
Control register 2, bits 13,12.
1. 1 stop bit: This is the default value of number of stop bits.
2. 2 Stop bits: This will be supported by normal USART, single-wire and modem modes.
3. 0.5 stop bit: To be used when receiving data in Smartcard mode.
4. 1.5 stop bits: To be used when transmitting and receiving data in Smartcard mode.
An idle frame transmission will include the stop bits.
A break transmission will be 10 low bits followed by the configured number of stop bits
(when m = 0) and 11 low bits followed by the configured number of stop bits (when m = 1). It
is not possible to transmit long breaks (break of length greater than 10/11 low bits).

Procedure:
1. Enable the USART by writing the UE bit in USART_CR1 register to 1.
2. Program the M bit in USART_CR1 to define the word length.
3. Program the number of stop bits in USART_CR2.
4. Select DMA enable (DMAT) in USART_CR3 if Multi buffer Communication is to take
place. Configure the DMA register as explained in multibuffer communication.
5. Select the desired baud rate using the USART_BRR register.
6. Set the TE bit in USART_CR1 to send an idle frame as first transmission.
7. Write the data to send in the USART_DR register (this clears the TXE bit). Repeat this
for each data to be transmitted in case of single buffer.
8. After writing the last data into the USART_DR register, wait until TC=1. This indicates
that the transmission of the last frame is complete. This is required for instance when
the USART is disabled or enters the Halt mode to avoid corrupting the last
transmission.

Single byte communication

Clearing the TXE bit is always performed by a write to the data register.
The TXE bit is set by hardware and it indicates:
● The data has been moved from TDR to the shift register and the data transmission has
started.
● The TDR register is empty.
● The next data can be written in the USART_DR register without overwriting the
previous data.
This flag generates an interrupt if the TXEIE bit is set.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 659/995

Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART) RM0008

When a transmission is taking place, a write instruction to the USART_DR register stores
the data in the TDR register and which is copied in the shift register at the end of the current
transmission.
When no transmission is taking place, a write instruction to the USART_DR register places
the data directly in the shift register, the data transmission starts, and the TXE bit is
immediately set.
If a frame is transmitted (after the stop bit) and the TXE bit is set, the TC bit goes high. An
interrupt is generated if the TCIE bit is set in the USART_CR1 register.
After writing the last data into the USART_DR register, it is mandatory to wait for TC=1
before disabling the USART or causing the microcontroller to enter the low power mode (see
Figure 241: TC/TXE behavior when transmitting).
Clearing the TC bit is performed by the following software sequence:
1. A read from the USART_SR register
2. A write to the USART_DR register

1. This example assumes that several other transmissions occured since TE was set. Otherwise, if
USART_DR had been written for the first time, an IDLE preamble would have been transmitted first.
Note: The TC bit can also be cleared by writing a ‘0’ to it. This clearing sequence is recommended
only for Multibuffer communication.

Break characters
Setting the SBK bit transmits a break character. The break frame length depends on the M
bit (see Figure 239).
If the SBK bit is set to ‘1’ a break character is sent on the TX line after completing the current
character transmission. This bit is reset by hardware when the break character is completed
(during the stop bit of the break character). The USART inserts a logic 1 bit at the end of the
last break frame to guarantee the recognition of the start bit of the next frame.
Note: If the software resets the SBK bit before the commencement of break transmission, the
break character will not be transmitted. For two consecutive breaks, the SBK bit should be
set after the stop bit of the previous break.

660/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

Idle characters
Setting the TE bit drives the USART to send an idle frame before the first data frame.

25.3.3 Receiver
The USART can receive data words of either 8 or 9 bits depending on the M bit in the
USART_CR1 register.

Start bit detection

In the USART, the start bit is detected when a specific sequence of samples is recognized.
This sequence is: 1 1 1 0 X 0 X 0X 0X 0 X 0X 0.

Note: If the sequence is not complete, the start bit detection aborts and the receiver returns to idle
state (no flag is set) waiting for a falling edge.
If only 2 out of the 3 bits are at 0 (sampling on the 3rd, 5th and 7th bits or sampling on the 8th,
9th and 10th bits), the start bit is validated but the NE noise flag bit is set.
The start bit is confirmed if the last 3 samples are at 0 (sampling on the 8th, 9th, and 10th
bits.

Character reception
During an USART reception, data shifts in least significant bit first through the RX pin. In this
mode, the USART_DR register consists of a buffer (RDR) between the internal bus and the
received shift register.
Procedure:

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 661/995

Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART) RM0008

1. Enable the USART by writing the UE bit in USART_CR1 register to 1.

2. Program the M bit in USART_CR1 to define the word length.
3. Program the number of stop bits in USART_CR2.
4. Select DMA enable (DMAR) in USART_CR3 if multibuffer communication is to take
place. Configure the DMA register as explained in multibuffer communication. STEP 3
5. Select the desired baud rate using the baud rate register USART_BRR
6. Set the RE bit USART_CR1. This enables the receiver which begins searching for a
start bit.
When a character is received
● The RXNE bit is set. It indicates that the content of the shift register is transferred to the
RDR. In other words, data has been received and can be read (as well as its
associated error flags).
● An interrupt is generated if the RXNEIE bit is set.
● The error flags can be set if a frame error, noise or an overrun error has been detected
during reception.
● In multibuffer, RXNE is set after every byte received and is cleared by the DMA read to
the Data Register.
● In single buffer mode, clearing the RXNE bit is performed by a software read to the
USART_DR register. The RXNE flag can also be cleared by writing a zero to it. The
RXNE bit must be cleared before the end of the reception of the next character to avoid
an overrun error.
Note: The RE bit should not be reset while receiving data. If the RE bit is disabled during
reception, the reception of the current byte will be aborted.

Break character
When a break character is received, the USART handles it as a framing error.

Idle character
When an idle frame is detected, there is the same procedure as a data received character
plus an interrupt if the IDLEIE bit is set.

Overrun error
An overrun error occurs when a character is received when RXNE has not been reset. Data
can not be transferred from the shift register to the RDR register until the RXNE bit is
cleared.

662/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

The RXNE flag is set after every byte received. An overrun error occurs if RXNE flag is set
when the next data is received or the previous DMA request has not been serviced. When
an overrun error occurs:
● The ORE bit is set.
● The RDR content will not be lost. The previous data is available when a read to
USART_DR is performed.
● The shift register will be overwritten. After that point, any data received during overrun
is lost.
● An interrupt is generated if either the RXNEIE bit is set or both the EIE and DMAR bits
are set.
● The ORE bit is reset by a read to the USART_SR register followed by a USART_DR
register read operation.
Note: The ORE bit, when set, indicates that at least 1 data has been lost. There are two
possibilities:
● if RXNE=1, then the last valid data is stored in the receive register RDR and can be
read,
● if RXNE=0, then it means that the last valid data has already been read and thus there
is nothing to be read in the RDR. This case can occur when the last valid data is read in
the RDR at the same time as the new (and lost) data is received. It may also occur
when the new data is received during the reading sequence (between the USART_SR
register read access and the USART_DR read access).

Noise error
Over-sampling techniques are used (except in synchronous mode) for data recovery by
discriminating between valid incoming data and noise.

When noise is detected in a frame:

● The NE is set at the rising edge of the RXNE bit.
● The invalid data is transferred from the Shift register to the USART_DR register.
● No interrupt is generated in case of single byte communication. However this bit rises
at the same time as the RXNE bit which itself generates an interrupt. In case of
multibuffer communication an interrupt will be issued if the EIE bit is set in the
USART_CR3 register.
The NE bit is reset by a USART_SR register read operation followed by a USART_DR
register read operation.

Framing error
A framing error is detected when:
The stop bit is not recognized on reception at the expected time, following either a de-
synchronization or excessive noise.
When the framing error is detected:
● The FE bit is set by hardware
● The invalid data is transferred from the Shift register to the USART_DR register.
● No interrupt is generated in case of single byte communication. However this bit rises
at the same time as the RXNE bit which itself generates an interrupt. In case of
multibuffer communication an interrupt will be issued if the EIE bit is set in the
USART_CR3 register.
The FE bit is reset by a USART_SR register read operation followed by a USART_DR
register read operation.

Configurable stop bits during reception

The number of stop bits to be received can be configured through the control bits of Control
Register 2 - it can be either 1 or 2 in normal mode and 0.5 or 1.5 in Smartcard mode.
1. 0.5 stop bit (reception in Smartcard mode): No sampling is done for 0.5 stop bit. As
a consequence, no framing error and no break frame can be detected when 0.5 stop bit
is selected.
2. 1 stop bit: Sampling for 1 stop Bit is done on the 8th, 9th and 10th samples.
3. 1.5 stop bits (Smartcard mode): When transmitting in smartcard mode, the device
must check that the data is correctly sent. Thus the receiver block must be enabled (RE
=1 in the USART_CR1 register) and the stop bit is checked to test if the smartcard has
detected a parity error. In the event of a parity error, the smartcard forces the data
signal low during the sampling - NACK signal-, which is flagged as a framing error.
Then, the FE flag is set with the RXNE at the end of the 1.5 stop bit. Sampling for 1.5
stop bits is done on the 16th, 17th and 18th samples (1 baud clock period after the
beginning of the stop bit). The 1.5 stop bit can be decomposed into 2 parts: one 0.5

664/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

baud clock period during which nothing happens, followed by 1 normal stop bit period
during which sampling occurs halfway through. Refer to Section 25.3.11: Smartcard on
page 675 for more details.
4. 2 stop bits: Sampling for 2 stop bits is done on the 8th, 9th and 10th samples of the
first stop bit. If a framing error is detected during the first stop bit the framing error flag
will be set. The second stop bit is not checked for framing error. The RXNE flag will be
set at the end of the first stop bit.

25.3.4 Fractional baud rate generation

The baud rate for the receiver and transmitter (Rx and Tx) are both set to the same value as
programmed in the Mantissa and Fraction values of USARTDIV.
fCK
Tx/ Rx baud =
(16*USARTDIV)
legend: fCK - Input clock to the peripheral (PCLK1 for USART2, 3, 4, 5 or PCLK2 for USART1)

USARTDIV is an unsigned fixed point number that is coded on the USART_BRR register.
Note: The baud counters are updated with the new value of the Baud registers after a write to
USART_BRR. Hence the Baud rate register value should not be changed during
communication.

How to derive USARTDIV from USART_BRR register values

Example 1:
If DIV_Mantissa = 0d27 and DIV_Fraction = 0d12 (USART_BRR = 0x1BC), then
Mantissa (USARTDIV) = 0d27
Fraction (USARTDIV) = 12/16 = 0d0.75
Therefore USARTDIV = 0d27.75

Example 2:
To program USARTDIV = 0d25.62
This leads to:
DIV_Fraction = 16*0d0.62 = 0d9.92
The nearest real number is 0d10 = 0xA
DIV_Mantissa = mantissa (0d25.620) = 0d25 = 0x19
Then, USART_BRR = 0x19A hence USARTDIV = 0d25.625

Example 3:
To program USARTDIV = 0d50.99
This leads to:
DIV_Fraction = 16*0d0.99 = 0d15.84

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 665/995

Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART) RM0008

The nearest real number is 0d16 = 0x10 => overflow of DIV_frac[3:0] => carry must be
added up to the mantissa
DIV_Mantissa = mantissa (0d50.990 + carry) = 0d51 = 0x33
Then, USART_BRR = 0x330 hence USARTDIV = 0d51.000

Note: 1 The lower the CPU clock the lower will be the accuracy for a particular Baud rate. The upper
limit of the achievable baud rate can be fixed with this data.
2 Only USART1 is clocked with PCLK2 (72 MHz Max). Other USARTs are clocked with
PCLK1 (36 MHz Max).

25.3.5 USART receiver’s tolerance to clock deviation

The USART’s asynchronous receiver works correctly only if the total clock system deviation
is smaller than the USART receiver’s tolerance. The causes which contribute to the total
deviation are:
● DTRA: Deviation due to the transmitter error (which also includes the deviation of the
transmitter’s local oscillator)
● DQUANT: Error due to the baud rate quantization of the receiver
● DREC: Deviation of the receiver’s local oscillator
● DTCL: Deviation due to the transmission line (generally due to the transceivers which
can introduce an asymmetry between the low-to-high transition timing and the high-to-
low transition timing)
DTRA + DQUANT + DREC + DTCL < USART receiver’s tolerance

666/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

The USART receiver’s tolerance to properly receive data is equal to the maximum tolerated
deviation and depends on the following choices:
● 10- or 11-bit character length defined by the M bit in the USART_CR1 register
● use of fractional baud rate or not

Table 175. USART receiver ‘s tolerance when DIV_Fraction is 0

M bit NF is an error NF is don’t care

M bit NF is an error NF is don’t care
0 3.33% 3.88%

Note: The figures specified in Table 175 and Table 176 may slighly differ in the special case when
the received frames contain some Idle frames of exactly 10-bit times when M=0 (11-bit times
when M=1).

25.3.6 Multiprocessor communication

There is a possibility of performing multiprocessor communication with the USART (several
USARTs connected in a network). For instance one of the USARTs can be the master, its
TX output is connected to the RX input of the other USART. The others are slaves, their
respective TX outputs are logically ANDed together and connected to the RX input of the
master.
In multiprocessor configurations it is often desirable that only the intended message
recipient should actively receive the full message contents, thus reducing redundant USART
service overhead for all non addressed receivers.
The non addressed devices may be placed in mute mode by means of the muting function.
In mute mode:
● None of the reception status bits can be set.
● All the receive interrupts are inhibited.
● The RWU bit in USART_CR1 register is set to 1. RWU can be controlled automatically
by hardware or written by the software under certain conditions.
The USART can enter or exit from mute mode using one of two methods, depending on the
WAKE bit in the USART_CR1 register:
● Idle Line detection if the WAKE bit is reset,
● Address Mark detection if the WAKE bit is set.

Idle line detection (WAKE=0)

The USART enters mute mode when the RWU bit is written to 1.
It wakes up when an Idle frame is detected. Then the RWU bit is cleared by hardware but
the IDLE bit is not set in the USART_SR register. RWU can also be written to 0 by software.
An example of mute mode behavior using idle line detection is given in Figure 244.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 667/995

RWU Mute Mode Normal Mode

RWU written to 1 Idle frame detected

Address mark detection (WAKE=1)

In this mode, bytes are recognized as addresses if their MSB is a ‘1’ else they are
considered as data. In an address byte, the address of the targeted receiver is put on the 4
LSB. This 4-bit word is compared by the receiver with its own address which is programmed
in the ADD bits in the USART_CR2 register.
The USART enters mute mode when an address character is received which does not
match its programmed address. In this case, the RWU bit is set by hardware. The RXNE flag
is not set for this address byte and no interrupt nor DMA request is issued as the USART
would have entered mute mode.
It exits from mute mode when an address character is received which matches the
programmed address. Then the RWU bit is cleared and subsequent bytes are received
normally. The RXNE bit is set for the address character since the RWU bit has been cleared.
The RWU bit can be written to as 0 or 1 when the receiver buffer contains no data (RXNE=0
in the USART_SR register). Otherwise the write attempt is ignored.
An example of mute mode behavior using address mark detection is given in Figure 245.

25.3.7 Parity control

Parity control (generation of parity bit in transmission and parity checking in reception) can
be enabled by setting the PCE bit in the USART_CR1 register. Depending on the frame
length defined by the M bit, the possible USART frame formats are as listed in Table 177.

668/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

Table 177. Frame formats(1)

M bit PCE bit USART frame

0 0 | SB | 8 bit data | STB |

0 1 | SB | 7-bit data | PB | STB |
1 0 | SB | 9-bit data | STB |
1 1 | SB | 8-bit data PB | STB |
1. Legends: SB: Start Bit, STB: Stop Bit, PB: Parity Bit

Note: In case of wake up by an address mark, the MSB bit of the data is taken into account and
not the parity bit
Even parity: the parity bit is calculated to obtain an even number of “1s” inside the frame
made of the 7 or 8 LSB bits (depending on whether M is equal to 0 or 1) and the parity bit.
Ex: data=00110101; 4 bits set => parity bit will be 0 if even parity is selected (PS bit in
USART_CR1 = 0).
Odd parity: the parity bit is calculated to obtain an odd number of “1s” inside the frame
made of the 7 or 8 LSB bits (depending on whether M is equal to 0 or 1) and the parity bit.
Ex: data=00110101; 4 bits set => parity bit will be 1 if odd parity is selected (PS bit in
USART_CR1 = 1).
Transmission mode: If the PCE bit is set in USART_CR1, then the MSB bit of the data
written in the data register is transmitted but is changed by the parity bit (even number of
“1s” if even parity is selected (PS=0) or an odd number of “1s” if odd parity is selected
(PS=1)). If the parity check fails, the PE flag is set in the USART_SR register and an
interrupt is generated if PEIE is set in the USART_CR1 register.

25.3.8 LIN (local interconnection network) mode

The LIN mode is selected by setting the LINEN bit in the USART_CR2 register. In LIN mode,
the following bits must be kept cleared:
● CLKEN in the USART_CR2 register,
● STOP[1:0], SCEN, HDSEL and IREN in the USART_CR3 register.

LIN transmission
The same procedure explained in Section 25.3.2 has to be applied for LIN Master
transmission than for normal USART transmission with the following differences:
● Clear the M bit to configure 8-bit word length.
● Set the LINEN bit to enter LIN mode. In this case, setting the SBK bit sends 13 ‘0’ bits
as a break character. Then a bit of value ‘1’ is sent to allow the next start detection.

LIN reception
When the LIN mode is enabled, the break detection circuit is activated. The detection is
totally independent from the normal USART receiver. A break can be detected whenever it
occurs, during idle state or during a frame.
When the receiver is enabled (RE=1 in USART_CR1), the circuit looks at the RX input for a
start signal. The method for detecting start bits is the same when searching break

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 669/995

Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART) RM0008

characters or data. After a start bit has been detected, the circuit samples the next bits
exactly like for the data (on the 8th, 9th and 10th samples). If 10 (when the LBDL = 0 in
USART_CR2) or 11 (when LBDL=1 in USART_CR2) consecutive bits are detected as ‘0’,
and are followed by a delimiter character, the LBD flag is set in USART_SR. If the LBDIE
bit=1, an interrupt is generated. Before validating the break, the delimiter is checked for as it
signifies that the RX line has returned to a high level.
If a ‘1’ is sampled before the 10 or 11 have occurred, the break detection circuit cancels the
current detection and searches for a start bit again.
If the LIN mode is disabled (LINEN=0), the receiver continues working as normal USART,
without taking into account the break detection.
If the LIN mode is enabled (LINEN=1), as soon as a framing error occurs (i.e. stop bit
detected at ‘0’, which will be the case for any break frame), the receiver stops until the break
detection circuit receives either a ‘1’, if the break word was not complete, or a delimiter
character if a break has been detected.
The behavior of the break detector state machine and the break flag is shown on the
Figure 246: Break detection in LIN mode (11-bit break length - LBDL bit is set) on page 671.
Examples of break frames are given on Figure 247: Break detection in LIN mode vs.
Framing error detection on page 672.

25.3.9 USART synchronous mode

The synchronous mode is selected by writing the CLKEN bit in the USART_CR2 register to
1. In synchronous mode, the following bits must be kept cleared:
● LINEN bit in the USART_CR2 register,
● SCEN, HDSEL and IREN bits in the USART_CR3 register.
The USART allows the user to control a bidirectional synchronous serial communications in
master mode. The SCLK pin is the output of the USART transmitter clock. No clock pulses
are sent to the SCLK pin during start bit and stop bit. Depending on the state of the LBCL bit
in the USART_CR2 register clock pulses will or will not be generated during the last valid
data bit (address mark). The CPOL bit in the USART_CR2 register allows the user to select
the clock polarity, and the CPHA bit in the USART_CR2 register allows the user to select the
phase of the external clock (see Figure 248, Figure 249 & Figure 250).
During idle, preamble and send break, the external SCLK clock is not activated.
In synchronous mode the USART transmitter works exactly like in asynchronous mode. But
as SCLK is synchronized with TX (according to CPOL and CPHA), the data on TX is
synchronous.
In this mode the USART receiver works in a different manner compared to the
asynchronous mode. If RE=1, the data is sampled on SCLK (rising or falling edge,
depending on CPOL and CPHA), without any oversampling. A setup and a hold time must
be respected (which depends on the baud rate: 1/16 bit time).
Note: 1 The SCLK pin works in conjunction with the TX pin. Thus, the clock is provided only if the
transmitter is enabled (TE=1) and a data is being transmitted (the data register USART_DR
has been written). This means that it is not possible to receive a synchronous data without
transmitting data.
2 The LBCL, CPOL and CPHA bits have to be selected when both the transmitter and the
receiver are disabled (TE=RE=0) to ensure that the clock pulses function correctly. These
bits should not be changed while the transmitter or the receiver is enabled.

672/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

3 It is advised that TE and RE are set in the same instruction in order to minimize the setup
and the hold time of the receiver.
4 The USART supports master mode only: it cannot receive or send data related to an input
clock (SCLK is always an output).

25.3.10 Single-wire half-duplex communication

The single-wire half-duplex mode is selected by setting the HDSEL bit in the USART_CR3
register. In this mode, the following bits must be kept cleared:
● LINEN and CLKEN bits in the USART_CR2 register,
● SCEN and IREN bits in the USART_CR3 register.
The USART can be configured to follow a single-wire half-duplex protocol. In single-wire
half-duplex mode, the TX and RX pins are connected internally. The selection between half-
and full-duplex communication is made with a control bit ‘HALF DUPLEX SEL’ (HDSEL in
USART_CR3).
As soon as HDSEL is written to 1:
● RX is no longer used,
● TX is always released when no data is transmitted. Thus, it acts as a standard I/O in
idle or in reception. It means that the I/O must be configured so that TX is configured as
floating input (or output high open-drain) when not driven by the USART.

674/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

Apart from this, the communications are similar to what is done in normal USART mode.
The conflicts on the line must be managed by the software (by the use of a centralized
arbiter, for instance). In particular, the transmission is never blocked by hardware and
continue to occur as soon as a data is written in the data register while the TE bit is set.

25.3.11 Smartcard
The Smartcard mode is selected by setting the SCEN bit in the USART_CR3 register. In
smartcard mode, the following bits must be kept cleared:
● LINEN bit in the USART_CR2 register,
● HDSEL and IREN bits in the USART_CR3 register.
Moreover, the CLKEN bit may be set in order to provide a clock to the smartcard.
The Smartcard interface is designed to support asynchronous protocol Smartcards as
defined in the ISO 7816-3 standard. The USART should be configured as:
● 8 bits plus parity: where M=1 and PCE=1 in the USART_CR1 register
● 1.5 stop bits when transmitting and receiving : where STOP=’11’ in the USART_CR2
register.
Note: It is also possible to choose 0.5 stop bit for receiving but it is recommended to use 1.5 stop
bits for both transmitting and receiving to avoid switching between the two configurations.
Figure 252 shows examples of what can be seen on the data line with and without parity
error.

bit case of parity error

When connected to a smartcard, the TX output of the USART drives a bidirectional line that
the smartcard also drives into. To do so, SW_RX must be connected on the same I/O than
TX at product level. The Transmitter output enable TX_EN is asserted during the
transmission of the start bit and the data byte, and is deasserted during the stop bit (weak
pull up), so that the receive can drive the line in case of a parity error. If TX_EN is not used,
TX is driven at high level during the stop bit: Thus the receiver can drive the line as long as
TX is configured in open-drain.
Smartcard is a single wire half duplex communication protocol.
● Transmission of data from the transmit shift register is guaranteed to be delayed by a
minimum of 1/2 baud clock. In normal operation a full transmit shift register will start

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 675/995

Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART) RM0008

shifting on the next baud clock edge. In Smartcard mode this transmission is further
delayed by a guaranteed 1/2 baud clock.
● If a parity error is detected during reception of a frame programmed with a 0.5 or 1.5
stop bit period, the transmit line is pulled low for a baud clock period after the
completion of the receive frame. This is to indicate to the Smartcard that the data
transmitted to USART has not been correctly received. This NACK signal (pulling
transmit line low for 1 baud clock) will cause a framing error on the transmitter side
(configured with 1.5 stop bits). The application can handle re-sending of data according
to the protocol. A parity error is ‘NACK’ed by the receiver if the NACK control bit is set,
otherwise a NACK is not transmitted.
● The assertion of the TC flag can be delayed by programming the Guard Time register.
In normal operation, TC is asserted when the transmit shift register is empty and no
further transmit requests are outstanding. In Smartcard mode an empty transmit shift
register triggers the guard time counter to count up to the programmed value in the
Guard Time register. TC is forced low during this time. When the guard time counter
reaches the programmed value TC is asserted high.
● The de-assertion of TC flag is unaffected by Smartcard mode.
● If a framing error is detected on the transmitter end (due to a NACK from the receiver),
the NACK will not be detected as a start bit by the receive block of the transmitter.
According to the ISO protocol, the duration of the received NACK can be 1 or 2 baud
clock periods.
● On the receiver side, if a parity error is detected and a NACK is transmitted the receiver
will not detect the NACK as a start bit.
Note: 1 A break character is not significant in Smartcard mode. A 0x00 data with a framing error will
be treated as data and not as a break.
2 No IDLE frame is transmitted when toggling the TE bit. The IDLE frame (as defined for the
other configurations) is not defined by the ISO protocol.
Figure 253 details how the NACK signal is sampled by the USART. In this example the
USART is transmitting a data and is configured with 1.5 stop bits. The receiver part of the
USART is enabled in order to check the integrity of the data and the NACK signal.

The USART can provide a clock to the smartcard through the SCLK output. In smartcard
mode, SCLK is not associated to the communication but is simply derived from the internal

676/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

peripheral input clock through a 5-bit prescaler. The division ratio is configured in the
prescaler register USART_GTPR. SCLK frequency can be programmed from fCK/2 to
fCK/62, where fCK is the peripheral input clock.

25.3.12 IrDA SIR ENDEC block

The IrDA mode is selected by setting the IREN bit in the USART_CR3 register. In IrDA
mode, the following bits must be kept cleared:
● LINEN, STOP and CLKEN bits in the USART_CR2 register,
● SCEN and HDSEL bits in the USART_CR3 register.
The IrDA SIR physical layer specifies use of a Return to Zero, Inverted (RZI) modulation
scheme that represents logic 0 as an infrared light pulse (see Figure 254).
The SIR Transmit encoder modulates the Non Return to Zero (NRZ) transmit bit stream
output from USART. The output pulse stream is transmitted to an external output driver and
infrared LED. USART supports only bit rates up to 115.2Kbps for the SIR ENDEC. In normal
mode the transmitted pulse width is specified as 3/16 of a bit period.
The SIR receive decoder demodulates the return-to-zero bit stream from the infrared
detector and outputs the received NRZ serial bit stream to USART. The decoder input is
normally HIGH (marking state) in the idle state. The transmit encoder output has the
opposite polarity to the decoder input. A start bit is detected when the decoder input is low.
● IrDA is a half duplex communication protocol. If the Transmitter is busy (i.e. the USART
is sending data to the IrDA encoder), any data on the IrDA receive line will be ignored
by the IrDA decoder and if the Receiver is busy (USART is receiving decoded data from
the USART), data on the TX from the USART to IrDA will not be encoded by IrDA.
While receiving data, transmission should be avoided as the data to be transmitted
could be corrupted.
● A ‘0’ is transmitted as a high pulse and a ‘1’ is transmitted as a ‘0’. The width of the
pulse is specified as 3/16th of the selected bit period in normal mode (see Figure 255).
● The SIR decoder converts the IrDA compliant receive signal into a bit stream for
USART.
● The SIR receive logic interprets a high state as a logic one and low pulses as logic
zeros.
● The transmit encoder output has the opposite polarity to the decoder input. The SIR
output is in low state when idle.
● The IrDA specification requires the acceptance of pulses greater than 1.41 us. The
acceptable pulse width is programmable. Glitch detection logic on the receiver end
filters out pulses of width less than 2 PSC periods (PSC is the prescaler value
programmed in the IrDA low-power Baud Register, USART_GTPR). Pulses of width
less than 1 PSC period are always rejected, but those of width greater than one and
less than two periods may be accepted or rejected, those greater than 2 periods will be
accepted as a pulse. The IrDA encoder/decoder doesn’t work when PSC=0.
● The receiver can communicate with a low-power transmitter.
● In IrDA mode, the STOP bits in the USART_CR2 register must be configured to “1 stop
bit”.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 677/995

Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART) RM0008

IrDA low-power mode

Transmitter:
In low-power mode the pulse width is not maintained at 3/16 of the bit period. Instead, the
width of the pulse is 3 times the low-power baud rate which can be a minimum of 1.42 MHz.
Generally this value is 1.8432 MHz (1.42 MHz < PSC< 2.12 MHz). A low-power mode
programmable divisor divides the system clock to achieve this value.
Receiver:
Receiving in low-power mode is similar to receiving in normal mode. For glitch detection the
USART should discard pulses of duration shorter than 1/PSC. A valid low is accepted only if
its duration is greater than 2 periods of the IrDA low-power Baud clock (PSC value in
USART_GTPR).
Note: 1 A pulse of width less than two and greater than one PSC period(s) may or may not be
rejected.
2 The receiver set up time should be managed by software. The IrDA physical layer
specification specifies a minimum of 10 ms delay between transmission and reception (IrDA
is a half duplex protocol).

25.3.13 Continuous communication using DMA

The USART is capable to continue communication using the DMA. The DMA requests for
Rx buffer and Tx buffer are generated independently.
Note: You should refer to product specs for availability of the DMA controller. If DMA is not
available in the product, you should use the USART as explained in Section 25.3.2 or
25.3.3. In the USART_SR register, you can clear the TXE/ RXNE flags to achieve
continuous communication.

Transmission using DMA

DMA mode can be enabled for transmission by setting DMAT bit in the USART_CR3
register. Data is loaded from a SRAM area configured using the DMA peripheral (refer to the
DMA specification) to the USART_DR register whenever the TXE bit is set. To map a DMA
channel for USART transmission, use the following procedure (x denotes the channel
number):
1. Write the USART_DR register address in the DMA control register to configure it as the
destination of the transfer. The data will be moved to this address from memory after
each TXE event.
2. Write the memory address in the DMA control register to configure it as the source of
the transfer. The data will be loaded into the USART_DR register from this memory
area after each TXE event.
3. Configure the total number of bytes to be transferred to the DMA control register.
4. Configure the channel priority in the DMA register
5. Configure DMA interrupt generation after half/ full transfer as required by the
application.
6. Activate the channel in the DMA register.
When the number of data transfers programmed in the DMA Controller is reached, the DMA
controller generates an interrupt on the DMA channel interrupt vector. The DMAT bit should
be cleared by software in the USART_CR3 register during the interrupt subroutine.
Note: If DMA is used for transmission, do not enable the TXEIE bit.

Reception using DMA

DMA mode can be enabled for reception by setting the DMAR bit in USART_CR3 register.
Data is loaded from the USART_DR register to a SRAM area configured using the DMA
peripheral (refer to the DMA specification) whenever a data byte is received. To map a DMA
channel for USART reception, use the following procedure:
1. Write the USART_DR register address in the DMA control register to configure it as the
source of the transfer. The data will be moved from this address to the memory after
each RXNE event.
2. Write the memory address in the DMA control register to configure it as the destination
of the transfer. The data will be loaded from USART_DR to this memory area after each
RXNE event.
3. Configure the total number of bytes to be transferred in the DMA control register.
4. Configure the channel priority in the DMA control register
5. Configure interrupt generation after half/ full transfer as required by the application.
6. Activate the channel in the DMA control register.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 679/995

Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART) RM0008

When the number of data transfers programmed in the DMA Controller is reached, the DMA
controller generates an interrupt on the DMA channel interrupt vector. The DMAR bit should
be cleared by software in the USART_CR3 register during the interrupt subroutine.
Note: If DMA is used for reception, do not enable the RXNEIE bit.

Error flagging and interrupt generation in multibuffer communication

In case of multibuffer communication if any error occurs during the transaction the error flag
will be asserted after the current byte. An interrupt will be generated if the interrupt enable
flag is set. For framing error, overrun error and noise flag which are asserted with RXNE in
case of single byte reception, there will be separate error flag interrupt enable bit (EIE bit in
the USART_CR3 register), which if set will issue an interrupt after the current byte with
either of these errors.

25.3.14 Hardware flow control

It is possible to control the serial data flow between 2 devices by using the nCTS input and
the nRTS output. The Figure 256 shows how to connect 2 devices in this mode:

Figure 256. Hardware flow control between 2 USART

USART 1 USART 2
TX RX

TX circuit nCTS nRTS RX circuit

RX TX

RX circuit nCTS TX circuit

nRTS

RTS and CTS flow control can be enabled independently by writing respectively RTSE and
CTSE bits to 1 (in the USART_CR3 register).

RTS flow control

If the RTS flow control is enabled (RTSE=1), then nRTS is asserted (tied low) as long as the
USART receiver is ready to receive new data. When the receive register is full, nRTS is
deasserted, indicating that the transmission is expected to stop at the end of the current
frame. Figure 257 shows an example of communication with RTS flow control enabled.

680/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART)

CTS flow control

If the CTS flow control is enabled (CTSE=1), then the transmitter checks the nCTS input
before transmitting the next frame. If nCTS is asserted (tied low), then the next data is
transmitted (assuming that a data is to be transmitted, in other words, if TXE=0), else the
transmission does not occur. When nCTS is deasserted during a transmission, the current
transmission is completed before the transmitter stops.
When CTSE=1, the CTSIF status bit is automatically set by hardware as soon as the nCTS
input toggles. It indicates when the receiver becomes ready or not ready for communication.
An interrupt is generated if the CTSIE bit in the USART_CR3 register is set. The figure
below shows an example of communication with CTS flow control enabled.

Bits 8:0 DR[8:0]: Data value
Contains the Received or Transmitted data character, depending on whether it is read from
or written to.
The Data register performs a double function (read and write) since it is composed of two
registers, one for transmission (TDR) and one for reception (RDR)
The TDR register provides the parallel interface between the internal bus and the output
shift register (see Figure 1).
The RDR register provides the parallel interface between the input shift register and the
internal bus.
When transmitting with the parity enabled (PCE bit set to 1 in the USART_CR1 register), the
value written in the MSB (bit 7 or bit 8 depending on the data length) has no effect because
it is replaced by the parity.
When receiving with the parity enabled, the value read in the MSB bit is the received parity
bit.

26.1 OTG_FS introduction

Portions Copyright (c) 2004, 2005 Synopsys, Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission.
This section presents the architecture and the programming model of the OTG_FS
controller.
The following acronyms are used throughout the section:
FS full-speed
LS Low-speed
USB Universal serial bus
OTG On-the-go
PHY Physical layer

References are made to the following documents:

● USB On-The-Go Supplement, Revision 1.3
● Universal Serial Bus Revision 2.0 Specification
The OTG_FS is a dual-role device (DRD) controller that supports both device and host
functions and is fully compliant with the On-The-Go Supplement to the USB 2.0
Specification. It can also be configured as a host-only or device-only controller, fully
compliant with the USB 2.0 Specification. In host mode, the OTG_FS supports full-speed
(FS, 12 Mbits/s) and low-speed (LS, 1.5 Mbits/s) transfers whereas in device mode, it only
supports full-speed (FS, 12 Mbits/s) transfers. The OTG_FS supports both HNP and SRP.
The only external device required is a charge pump for VBUS in Host mode.

26.2 OTG_FS main features

The main features can be divided into three categories: general, host-mode and device-
mode features.

26.3.1 OTG full-speed core

The USB OTG FS receives the 48 MHz ±0.25% clock from the reset and clock controller
(RCC), via an external quartz. The USB clock is used for driving the 48 MHz domain at full-
speed (12 Mbit/s) and must be enabled prior to configuring the OTG FS Core.
The CPU reads and writes from/to the OTG FS Core registers through the AHB peripheral
bus. It is informed of USB events through the single USB OTG interrupt line described in
Section 26.13: OTG_FS interrupts.
The CPU submits data over the USB by writing 32-bit words to dedicated OTG_FS locations
(push registers). The data are then automatically stored into Tx-data FIFOs configured

696/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

within the USB data RAM. There is one Tx-FIFO push register for each in-endpoint
(peripheral mode) or out-channel (host mode).
The CPU receives the data from the USB by reading 32-bit words from dedicated OTG_FS
addresses (pop registers). The data are then automatically retrieved from a shared Rx-FIFO
configured within the 1.25 KB USB data RAM. There is one Rx-FIFO pop register for each
out-endpoint or in-channel.
The USB protocol layer is driven by the serial interface engine (SIE) and serialized over the
USB by the full-/low-speed transceiver module within the on-chip physical layer (PHY).

26.3.2 Full-speed OTG PHY

The embedded full-speed OTG PHY is controlled by the OTG FS Core and conveys USB
control & data signals through the full-speed subset of the UTMI+ Bus (UTMIFS). It provides
the physical support to USB connectivity.
The full-speed OTG PHY includes the following components:
● FS/LS transceiver module used by both Host and Device. It directly drives transmission
and reception on the single-ended USB lines.
● integrated ID pull-up resistor used to sample the ID line for A/B Device identification.
● DP/DM integrated pull-up and pull-down resistors controlled by the OTG_FS Core
depending on the current role of the device. As a peripheral, it enables the DP pull-up
resistor to signal full-speed peripheral connections as soon as VBUS is sensed to be at
a valid level (B-session valid). In Host mode, pull-down resistors are enabled on both
DP/DM. Pull-up and pull-down resistors are dynamically switched when the device’s
role is changed via the host negotiation protocol (HNP).
● Pull-up/pull-down resistor ECN circuit. The DP pull-up consists of 2 resistors controlled
separately from the OTG_FS as per the resistor Enginering Change Notice applied to
USB Rev2.0. The dynamic trimming of the DP pull-up strength allows for better noise
rejection and Tx/Rx signal quality.
● VBUS sensing comparators with hysteresis used to detect VBUS Valid, A-B Session
Valid and session-end voltage thresholds. They are used to drive the session request
protocol (SRP), detect valid startup and end-of-session conditions, and constantly
monitor the VBUS supply during USB operations.
● VBUS pulsing method circuit used to charge/discharge VBUS through resistors during
the SRP (weak drive).

2. ST20x2 only needed if the application has to to support VBUS powered devices. A basic power switch can
be used if 5 V are available on the application board.
3. VDD range is between 2 V and 3.6 V.

26.4.1 ID line detection

The Host or Peripheral (the default) role is assumed depending on the ID input pin. The ID
line status is determined on plugging in the USB, depending on which side of the USB cable
is connected to the micro-AB receptacle.
● If the B-side of the USB cable is connected with a floating ID wire, the integrated pull-up
resistor detects a high ID level and the default Peripheral role is confirmed. In this
configuration the OTG_FS complies with the standard FSM described by section 6.8.2:
On-The-Go B-Device of the On-The-Go Specification Rev1.3 supplement to the
USB2.0.
● If the A-side of the USB cable is connected with a grounded ID, the OTG_FS issues an
ID line status change interrupt (CIDSCHG bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) for host software
initialization, and automatically switches to the Host role. In this configuration the
OTG_FS complies with the standard FSM described by section 6.8.1: On-The-Go A-
Device of the On-The-Go Specification Rev1.3 supplement to the USB2.0.

26.4.2 HNP dual role device

The HNP capable bit in the Global USB configuration register (HNPCAP bit in OTG_FS_
GUSBCFG) enables the OTG_FS Core to dynamically change its role from A-Host to A-
peripheral and vice-versa, or from B-Peripheral to B-Host and vice-versa according to the
host negotiation protocol (HNP). The current device status can be read by the combined
values of the Connector ID Status bit in the Global OTG control and status register (CIDSTS
bit in OTG_FS_GOTGCTL) and the current mode of operation bit in the global interrupt and
status register (CMOD bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS).

698/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

The HNP program model is described in detail in Section 26.15: OTG_FS programming
model.

26.4.3 SRP dual role device

The SRP capable bit in the global USB configuration register (SRPCAP bit in
OTG_FS_GUSBCFG) enables the OTG_FS Core to switch off the generation of VBUS for
the A-Device to save power. Note that the A-Device is always in charge of driving VBUS
regardless of the host or peripheral role of the OTG_FS.
the SRP A/B-Device program model is described in detail in Section 26.15: OTG_FS
programming model.

26.5 USB peripheral

This section gives the functional description of the OTG_FS in the USB peripheral mode.
The OTG_FS works as an USB peripheral in the following circumstances:
● OTG B-Peripheral
– OTG B-Device default state if B-side of USB cable is plugged in
● OTG A-Peripheral
– OTG A-Device state after the HNP switches the OTG_FS to its peripheral role
● B-Device
– If the ID line is present, functional and connected to the B-side of the USB cable,
and the HNP-capable bit in the Global USB Configuration register (HNPCAP bit in
OTG_FS_GUSBCFG) is cleared (see On-The-Go Rev1.3 par. 6.8.3).
● Peripheral only (see Figure 262: USB peripheral-only connection)
– The force device mode bit in the Global USB configuration register (FDMOD in
OTG_FS_GUSBCFG) is set to 1, forcing the OTG_FS core to work as a USB
peripheral-only (see On-The-Go Rev1.3 par. 6.8.3). In this case, the ID line is
ignored even if present on the USB connector.
Note: To build a bus-powered device implementation in case of the B-Device or Peripheral-only
configuration, an external regulator has to be added that generates the VDD chip-supply
from VBUS .

26.5.1 SRP-capable peripheral

The SRP capable bit in the Global USB configuration register (SRPCAP bit in
OTG_FS_GUSBCFG) enables the OTG_FS to support the session request protocol (SRP).
In this way, it allows the remote A-Device to save power by switching off VBUS while the USB
session is suspended.
The SRP peripheral mode program model is described in detail in the B-device session
request protocol section.

26.5.2 Peripheral states

Powered state
The VBUS input detects the B-Session valid voltage by which the USB peripheral is allowed
to enter the powered state (see USB2.0 par9.1). The OTG_FS then automatically connects
the DP pull-up resistor to signal full-speed device connection to the host and generates the
session request interrupt (SRQINT bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) to notify the powered state.
The VBUS input also ensures that valid VBUS levels are supplied by the host during USB
operations. If a drop in VBUS below B-session valid happens to be detected (for instance
because of a power disturbance or if the host port has been switched off), the OTG_FS
automatically disconnects and the session end detected (SEDET bit in
OTG_FS_GOTGINT) interrupt is generated to notify that the OTG_FS has exited the
powered state.
In the powered state, the OTG_FS expects to receive some reset signaling from the host.
No other USB operation is possible. When a reset signaling is received the reset detected
interrupt (USBRST in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) is generated. When the reset signaling is
complete, the enumeration done interrupt (ENUMDNE bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) is
generated and the OTG_FS enters the Default state.

700/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

Soft disconnect
The powered state can be exited by software with the soft disconnect feature. The DP pull-
up resistor is removed by setting the soft disconnect bit in the device control register (SDIS
bit in OTG_FS_DCTL), causing a device disconnect detection interrupt on the host side
even though the USB cable was not really removed from the host port.

Default state
In the Default state the OTG_FS expects to recieve a SET_ADDRESS command from the
host. No other USB operation is possible. When a valid SET_ADDRESS command is
decoded on the USB, the application writes the corresponding number into the device
address field in the device configuration register (DAD bit in OTG_FS_DCFG). The OTG_FS
then enters the address state and is ready to answer host transactions at the configured
USB address.

Suspended state
The OTG_FS peripheral constantly monitors the USB activity. After counting 3 ms of USB
idleness, the early suspend interrupt (ESUSP bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) is issued, and
confirmed 3 ms later, if appropriate, by the suspend interrupt (USBSUSP bit in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS). The device suspend bit is then automatically set in the device status
register (SUSPSTS bit in OTG_FS_DSTS) and the OTG_FS enters the suspended state.
The suspended state may optionally be exited by the device itself. In this case the
application sets the remote wakeup signaling bit in the device control register (WKUPINT bit
in OTG_FS_DCTL) and clears it after 1 to 15 ms.
When a resume signaling is detected from the host, the resume interrupt (RWUSIG bit in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS) is generated and the device suspend bit is automatically cleared.

26.5.3 Peripheral endpoints

The OTG_FS core instantiates the following USB endpoints:
● Control endpoint 0
– is bidirectional and handles control messages only
– has a separate set of registers to handle in and out transactions
– has proper control (DIEPCTL0/DOEPCTL0), transfer configuration
(DIEPTSIZ0/DIEPTSIZ0), and status-interrupt (DIEPINTx/)DOEPINT0) registers.
The available set of bits inside the control and transfer size registers slightly differs
from that of other endpoints
● 3 IN endpoints
– each of them can be configured to support the isochronous, bulk or interrupt
transfer type
– each of them has proper control (DIEPCTLx), transfer configuration (DIEPTSIZx),
and status-interrupt (DIEPINTx) registers
– the Device IN endpoints common interrupt mask register (DIEPMSK) is available
to enable/disable a single kind of endpoint interrupt source on all of the IN
endpoints (EP0 included)
– support incomplete isochronous IN transfer interrupt (IISOIXFR bit in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS), asserted when there is at least one isochronous IN endpoint

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 701/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

on which the transfer is not completed in the current frame. This interrupt is
asserted along with the end of periodic frame interrupt (GINTSTS/EOPF).
● 3 OUT endpoints
– each of them can be configured to support the isochronous, bulk or interrupt
transfer type
– each of them has a proper control (DOEPCTLx), transfer configuration
(DOEPTSIZx) and status-interrupt (DOEPINTx) register
– Device Out endpoints common interrupt mask register (DOEPMSK) is available to
enable/disable a single kind of endpoint interrupt source on all of the OUT
endpoints (EP0 included)
– support incomplete isochronous OUT transfer interrupt (INCOMPISOOUT bit in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS), asserted when there is at least one isochronous OUT
endpoint on which the transfer is not completed in the current frame. This interrupt
is asserted along with the end of periodic frame interrupt (GINTSTS/EOPF).

Endpoint control
● The following endpoint controls are available to the application through the device
endpoint-x IN/OUT control register (DIEPCTLx/DOEPCTLx):
– endpoint enable/disable
– endpoint activation in current configuration
– program the USB transfer type (isochronous, bulk, interrupt)
– program the supported packet size
– program the Tx-FIFO number associated with the IN endpoint
– program the expected or transmitted data0/data1 PID (bulk/interrupt only)
– program the even/odd frame during which the transaction is received or
transmitted (isochronous only)
– optionally program the NAK bit to always negative-acknowledge the host
regardless of the FIFO status
– optionally program the STALL bit to always stall host tokens to that endpoint
– optionally program the SNOOP mode for OUT endpoint not to check the CRC field
of received data

Endpoint transfer
The device endpoint-x transfer size registers (DIEPTSIZx/DOEPTSIZx) allow the application
to program the transfer size parameters and read the transfer status. Programming must be
done before setting the endpoint enable bit in the endpoint control register. Once the
endpoint is enabled, these fields are read-only as the OTG FS core updates them with the
current transfer status.
● The following transfer parameters can be programmed:
– transfer size in bytes
– number of packets constituing the overall transfer size

Endpoint status/interrupt
The device endpoint-x interrupt registers (DIEPINTx/DOPEPINTx) indicate the status of an
endpoint with respect to USB- and AHB-related events. The application must read these
registers when the OUT endpoint interrupt bit or the IN endpoint interrupt bit in the core

702/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

interrupt register (OEPINT bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS or IEPINT bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS,

respectively) is set. Before the application can read these registers, it must first read the
device all endpoints interrupt (DAINT) register to get the exact endpoint number for the
device endpoint-x interrupt register. The application must clear the appropriate bit in this
register to clear the corresponding bits in the DAINT and GINTSTS registers
● the peripheral core provides the following status checks and interrupt generation:
– transfer completed interrupt, indicating that data transfer was completed on both
the application (AHB) and USB sides
– setup stage has been done (control-out only)
– associated transmit FIFO is half or completely empty (in endpoints)
– NAK acknowledge has been transmitted to the host (isochonous-in only)
– IN token received when Tx-FIFO was empty (bulk-in/interrupt-in only)
– out token received when endpoint was not yet enabled
– babble error condition has been detected
– endpoint disable by application is effective
– endpoint NAK by application is effective (isochronous-in only)
– more than 3 back-to-back setup packets were received (control-out only)
– timeout condition detected (control-in only)
– isochronous out packet has been dropped, without generating an interrupt

26.6 USB host

This section gives the functional description of the OTG_FS in the USB host mode. The
OTG_FS works as a USB host in the following circumstances:
● OTG A-Host
– OTG A-Device default state when the A-side of the USB cable is plugged in
● OTG B-Host
– OTG B-Device after HNP switching to the host role
● A-Device
– If the ID line is present, functional and connected to the A-side of the USB cable,
and the HNP-capable bit is cleared in the Global USB Configuration register
(HNPCAP bit in OTG_FS_GUSBCFG). Integrated pull-down resistors are
automatically set on the DP/DM lines.
● Host only (see figure Figure 263: USB host only connection).
– The force host mode bit in the global USB configuration register (FHMOD bit in
OTG_FS_GUSBCFG) forces the OTG_FS core to work as a USB Host-only. In
this case, the ID line is ignored even if present on the USB connector. Integrated
pull-down resistors are automatically set on the DP/DM lines.
Note: 1 On-chip 5 V VBUS generation is not supported. For this reason, a charge pump or, if 5 V are
available on the application board, a basic power switch must be added externally to drive
the 5 V VBUS line. The external charge pump can be driven by any GPIO output. This is
required for the OTG A-Host, A-Device and Host-only configurations.
2 The VBUS input ensures that valid VBUS levels are supplied by the charge pump during USB
operations while the charge pump overcurrent output can be input to any GPIO pin

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 703/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

configured to generate port interrupts. The overcurrent ISR must promptly disable the VBUS
generation.

1. ST20x2 only needed if the application has to support a VBUS powered device. A basic power switch can be

2. VDD range is between 2 V and 3.6 V.

26.6.1 SRP-capable host

SRP support is available through the SRP capable bit in the global USB configuration
register (SRPCAP bit in OTG_FS_GUSBCFG). With the SRP feature enabled, the Host can
save power by switching off the VBUS power while the USB session is suspended.
The SRP host mode program model is described in detail in the A-device session request
protocol) section.

26.6.2 USB host states

Host port power
On-chip 5 V VBUS generation is not supported. For this reason, a charge pump or, if 5 V are
available on the application board, a basic power switch, must be added externally to drive
the 5 V VBUS line. The external charge pump can be driven by any GPIO output. When the
application decides to power on VBUS using the chosen GPIO, it must also set the port
power bit in the host port control and status register (PPWR bit in OTG_FS_HPRT).

VBUS valid
The VBUS input ensures that valid VBUS levels are supplied by the charge pump during USB
operations.
Any unforeseen VBUS voltage drop below the VBUS valid threshold (4.25 V) leads to an OTG
interrupt triggered by the session end detected bit (SEDET bit in OTG_FS_GOTGINT). The
application is then required to remove the VBUS power and clear the port power bit. The
charge pump overcurrent flag can also be used to prevent electrical damage. Connect the
overcurrent flag output from the charge pump to any GPIO input and configure it to generate
a port interrupt on the active level. The overcurrent ISR must promptly disable the VBUS
generation and clear the port power bit.

704/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

Host detection of a peripheral connection

Even if USB peripherals or B-devices can be attached at any time, the OTG_FS will not
detect any bus connection until VBUS is no longer sensed at a valid level (over 4.75 V).
When VBUS is at a valid level and a remote B-device is attached, the OTG_FS Core issues
an host port interrupt triggered by the device connected bit in the host port control and
status register (PCDET bit in OTG_FS_HPRT).

Host detection of peripheral a disconnection

The peripheral disconnection event triggers the disconnect detected interrupt (DISCINT bit
in OTG_FS_GINTSTS).

Host enumeration
After detecting a peripheral connection the host must start the enumeration process by
sending USB reset and configuration commands to the new peripheral.
Before starting to drive a USB reset, the application waits for the OTG interrupt triggered by
the debounce done bit (DBCDNE bit in OTG_FS_GOTGINT), which indicates that the bus is
stable again after the electrical debounce caused by the attachment of a pull-up resistor on
DP (FS) or DM (LS).
The application drives a USB reset signaling (single-ended zero) over the USB by keeping
the port reset bit set in the host port control and status register (PRST bit in
OTG_FS_HPRT) for a minimum of 10 ms and a maximum of 20 ms. The application takes
care of the timing count and then of clearing the port reset bit.
Once the USB reset sequence has completed, the host port interrupt is triggered by the port
enable/disable change bit (PENCHNG bit in OTG_FS_HPRT). This informs the application
that the speed of the enumerated peripheral can be read from the port speed field in the
host port control and status register (PSPD bit in OTG_FS_HPRT) and that the host is
starting to drive SOFs (FS) or Keep alives (LS). The Host is now ready to complete the
peripheral enumeration by sending peripheral configuration commands.

Host suspend
The application decides to suspend the USB activity by setting the port suspend bit in the
host port control and status register (PSUSP bit in OTG_FS_HPRT). The OTG_FS Core
stops sending SOFs and enters the suspended state.
The suspended state can be optionally exited on the remote device’s initiative (remote
wakeup). In this case the remote wakeup interrupt (WKUPINT bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) is
generated upon detection of a remote wakeup signaling, the port resume bit in the host port
control and status register (PRES bit in OTG_FS_HPRT) self-sets, and resume signaling is
automatically driven over the USB. The application must time the resume window and then
clear the port resume bit to exit the suspended state and restart the SOF.
If the suspended state is exited on the host’s initiative, the application must set the port
resume bit to start resume signaling on the host port, time the resume window and finally
clear the port resume bit.

26.6.3 Host channels

The OTG_FS core instantiates 8 host channels. Each host channel supports an USB host
transfer (USB pipe). The host is not able to support more than 8 transfer requests at the

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 705/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

same time. If more than 8 transfer requests are pending from the application, the host
controller driver (HCD) must re-allocate channels when they become available from
previous duty, that is, after receiving the transfer completed and channel halted interrupts.
Each host channel can be configured to support in/out and any type of periodic/nonperiodic
transaction. Each host channel makes us of proper control (HCCHARx), transfer
configuration (HCTSIZx) and status/interrupt (HCINTx) registers with associated mask
(HCINTMSKx) registers.

Host channel control

● The following host channel controls are available to the application through the host
channel-x characteristics register (HCCHARx):
– channel enable/disable
– program the FS/LS speed of target USB peripheral
– program the address of target USB peripheral
– program the endpoint number of target USB peripheral
– program the transfer IN/OUT direction
– program the USB transfer type (control, bulk, interrupt, isochronous)
– program the maximum packet size (MPS)
– program the periodic transfer to be executed during odd/even frames

Host channel transfer

The host channel transfer size registers (HCTSIZx) allow the application to program the
transfer size parameters, and read the transfer status. Programming must be done before
setting the channel enable bit in the host channel characteristics register. Once the endpoint
is enabled the packet count field is read-only as the OTG FS core updates it according to the
current transfer status.
● The following transfer parameters can be programmed:
– transfer size in bytes
– number of packets constituting the overall transfer size
– initial data PID

Host channel status/interrupt

The host channel-x interrupt register (HCINTx) indicates the status of an endpoint with
respect to USB- and AHB-related events. The application must read these register when the
host channels interrupt bit in the core interrupt register (HCINT bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) is
set. Before the application can read these registers, it must first read the host all channels
interrupt (HCAINT) register to get the exact channel number for the host channel-x interrupt
register. The application must clear the appropriate bit in this register to clear the

706/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

corresponding bits in the HAINT and GINTSTS registers. The mask bits for each interrupt
source of each channel are also available in the OTG_FS_HCINTMSK-x register.
● The host core provides the following status checks and interrupt generation:
– transfer completed interrupt, indicating that the data transfer is complete on both
the application (AHB) and USB sides
– channel has stopped due to transfer completed, USB transaction error or disable
command from the application
– associated transmit FIFO is half or completely empty (IN endpoints)
– ACK response received
– NAK response received
– STALL response received
– USB transaction error due to CRC failure, timeout, bit stuff error, false EOP
– babble error
– frame overrun
– data toggle error

26.6.4 Host scheduler

The host core features a built-in hardware scheduler able to autonomously re-order and
drive over the USB the transaction requests posted by the application. At the beginning of
each frame the host executes the periodic (isochronous and interrupt) traffic first, followed
by the nonperiodic (control and bulk) traffic to accomplish the higher level of priority granted
to the isochronous and interrupt transfer types by the USB specification.
The host pipes the USB transactions through request queues (one for periodic and one for
nonperiodic). Each request queue can hold up to 8 entries. Each entry represents a pending
transaction request from the application. Each entry in the request queue holds the IN or
OUT channel number along with other information to perform a transaction on the USB. The
order in which the requests are written into the queue determines the sequence of the
transactions on the USB. The host processes the periodic request queue first, followed by
the nonperiodic request queue, at the beginning of each frame. The host issues an
incomplete periodic transfer interrupt (IPXFR bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) if an isochronous or
interrupt transaction scheduled for the current frame is still pending at the end of the current
frame.
The management of the periodic and nonperiodic request queues is completely in the hands
of the OTG FS Core. A read-only register is available for the application to read the status of
each request queue:
● Periodic transmit FIFO and queue status register (HPTXSTS) and non periodic transmit
FIFO and queue status register (GNPTXSTS), containing the:
– number of free entries currently available in the periodic (non periodic) request
queue (8 max)
– free space currently available in the periodic (nonperiodic) Tx-FIFO (out-
transactions)
– IN/OUT token, host channel number and other status information
As request queues can hold a maximum of 8 entries each, the application can push to
schedule host transactions in advance with respect to the moment they physically reach the
USB for a maximum of 8 pending periodic transactions plus 8 pending nonperiodic
transactions. For example, for a bulk in/out transfer, up to 64 (max bulk packet size) × 8 (max

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 707/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

entries) = 512 bytes of USB bulk traffic can be scheduled by the application and
autonomously executed by the host at the maximum full-speed data rate without any
application intervention.
● To post an out periodic (nonperiodic) transaction request to the host scheduler the
application has to:
– configure the transfer parameters on an available host channel
– enable the configured channel
– check that there is at least 1 entry available in the periodic (nonperiodic) request
queue by reading the HPTXSTS bit in the OTG_FS_GNPTXSTS register
– check that there is enough FIFO space in the periodic (nonperiodic) Tx FIFO (see
Section 26.11.2: Host Tx FIFOs) by reading the HPTXSTS (GNPTXSTS) register.
This step may not be necessary if the application submits the host transaction
request upon reception of the periodic (nonperiodic) Tx FIFO half or completely
empty interrupt
– push the data payload to the associated FIFO address (push register). There is
one push register for each enabled host channel. The data payload is
automatically redirected to the periodic or nonperiodic Tx FIFO according to the
host channel EPTYP bitfield in the OTG_FS_HCCHARx register. When the last
32-bit word data are written to the FIFO, an active entry is inserted at the bottom of
the periodic (nonperiodic) request queue and the transaction request is scheduled
for execution
● To post an IN periodic (nonperiodic) transaction request to the host scheduler the
application has to:
– configure the transfer parameters on an available host channel
– enable the configured channel with the channel enable bit in the host channel
characteristics register (CHENA bit in OTG_FS_HCCHARx). This inserts an active
entry at the bottom of the periodic (nonperiodic) request queue and the
transaction request is scheduled for execution

The OTG FS Core provides:

● means to monitor, track and configure SOF framing in the host and peripheral
● an SOF pulse output connectivity feature
Such utilities are especially useful for adaptive audio clock generation techniques, where the
audio peripheral needs to synchronize to the isochronous stream provided by the PC, or the
Host needs to trim its framing rate according to the requirements of the audio peripheral.

26.7.1 Host SOFs

In Host mode the number of PHY clocks occurring between the generation of two
consecutive SOF (FS) or Keep-alive (LS) tokens is programmable in the host frame interval
register (HFIR), thus providing application control over the SOF framing period. An interrupt
is generated at any start of frame (SOF bit in OTH_FS_GINTSTS). The current frame
number and the time remaining until the next SOF are tracked in the host frame number
register (HFNUM).
An SOF pulse signal, generated at any SOF starting token and with a width of 12 system
clock cycles, can be made available externally on the SOF pin using the SOFOUTEN bit in
the global control and configuration register. The SOF pulse is also internally connected to
the input trigger of timer 2 (TIM2), so that the input capture feature, the output compare
feature and the timer can be triggered by the SOF pulse. The TIM2 connection is enabled by
bit 29 in the REMAP_DBGAFR register.

26.7.2 Peripheral SOFs

In Device mode, the start of frame interrupt is generated each time an SOF token is received
on the USB (SOF bit in OTH_FS_GINTSTS). The corresponding frame number can be read
from the device status register (FNSOF bit in OTG_FS_DSTS). An SOF pulse signal with a
width of 12 system clock cycles is also generated and can be made available externally on
the SOF pin by using the SOF output enable bit in the global control and configuration
register (SOFOUTEN bit in OTG_FS_GCCFG). The SOF pulse signal is also internally
connected to the TIM2 input trigger, so that the input capture feature, the output compare
feature and the timer can be triggered by the SOF pulse. The TIM2 connection is enabled by
bit 29 in the REMAP_DBGAFR register.
The end of periodic frame interrupt (GINTSTS/EOPF) is used to notify the application when
80%, 85%, 90% or 95% of the time frame interval elapsed depending on the periodic frame
interval field in the device configuration register (PFIVL bit in OTG_FS_DCFG). This feature
can be used to determine if all of the isochronous traffic for that frame is complete.

26.8 Power options

The power consumption of the OTG PHY is controlled by three bits in the general core
configuration register:
● PHY power down (GCCFG/PWRDWN)
– switch on/off the full-speed transceiver module of the PHY. Must be preliminarily
set to allow any USB operation.
● A-VBUS sensing enable (GCCFG/VBUSASEN)
– switch on/off the VBUS comparators associated with A-Device operations. Must be
set when in A-Device (USB Host) mode and during HNP.
● B-VBUS sensing enable (GCCFG/VBUSASEN)
– switch on/off the VBUS comparators associated with B-Device operations. Must be
set when in B-Device (USB peripheral) mode and during HNP.
Power reduction techniques are available while in the USB suspended state, when the USB
session is not yet valid or the device is disconnected.
● Stop PHY clock (STPPCLK bit in OTG_FS_PCGCCTL)
– when setting the stop PHY clock bit in the clock gating control register, most of the
48 MHz clock domain internal to the OTG full-speed core is switched off by clock
gating. The dynamic power consumption due to the USB clock switching activity is
cut even if the 48 MHz clock input is kept running by the application
– most of the transceiver is also disabled, and only the part in charge of detecting
the asynchronous resume or remote wakeup event is kept alive.
● Gate HCLK (GATEHCLK bit in OTG_FS_PCGCCTL)
– when setting the Gate HCLK bit in the clock gating control register, most of the
system clock domain internal to the OTG_FS Core is switched off by clock gating.
Only the register read and write interface is kept alive. The dynamic power
consumption due to the USB clock switching activity is cut even if the system clock
is kept running by the application for other purposes.
● USB system stop
– When the OTG_FS is in the USB suspended state, the application may decide to
drastically reduce the overall power consumption by a complete shut down of all
the clock sources in the system. USB System Stop is activated by first setting the
Stop PHY clock bit and then configuring the system deep sleep mode in the power
control system module (PWR).
– The OTG_FS Core automatically reactivates both system and USB clocks by
asynchronous detection of remote wakeup (as an Host) or resume (as a Device)
signaling on the USB.
To save dynamic power, the USB data FIFO is clocked only when accessed by the OTG_FS
Core.

The USB system features 1.25 Kbyte of dedicated RAM with a sophisticated FIFO control
mechanism. The packet FIFO controller (PFC) module in the OTG_FS Core organizes RAM
space into Tx-FIFOs into which the application pushes the data to be temporarily stored
before the USB transmission, and into a single Rx FIFO where the data received from the
USB are temporarily stored before retrieval (popped) by the application. The number of
instructed FIFOs and how these are architectured inside the RAM depends on the device’s
role. In peripheral mode an additional Tx-FIFO is instructed for each active IN endpoint. Any
FIFO size is software configured to better meet the application requirements.

26.10.1 Peripheral Rx FIFO

The OTG peripheral uses a single receive FIFO that receives the data directed to all OUT
endpoints. Received packets are stacked back-to-back until free space is available in the
Rx-FIFO. The status of the received packet (which contains the OUT endpoint destination
number, the byte count, the data PID and the validity of the received data) is also stored by
the PFC on top of the data payload . When no more space is available, host transactions are
NACKed and an interrupt is received on the addressed endpoint. The size of the receive
FIFO is configured in the receive FIFO Size register (GRXFSIZ).
The single receive FIFO architecture makes it more efficient for the USB peripheral to fill in
the receive RAM buffer
● all OUT endpoints share the same RAM buffer (shared FIFO)
● the OTG FS Core can fill in the receive FIFO up to the limit for any host sequence of
OUT tokens
The application keeps receiving the Rx-FIFO non-empty interrupt (RXFLVL bit in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS) as long as there is at least one packet available for download. It reads
the packet information from the receive status read and pop register (GRXSTSP) and finally
pops data off the receive FIFO by reading from the endpoint-related pop address.

712/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

26.10.2 Peripheral Tx FIFOs

The shared FIFO implementation is not viable for IN transactions. Pushing back-to-back
packets into a common Tx FIFO would require to know the host sequence in advance or to
predict it by a learning process. That is why in peripheral mode the core is configured to
have individual dedicated FIFOs for each IN endpoint. The application configures FIFO
sizes by writing the non periodic transmit FIFO size register (GNPTXFSIZ) for IN endpoint0
and the device IN endpoint transmit FIFOx registers (DIEPTXFx) for IN endpoint-x.
The dedicated transmit FIFO architecture is more flexible. It puts less load on the application
as there is no need for the application to predict the order in which the USB host is going to
access the IN endpoints.
Depending on the configured value of the non-periodic Tx FIFO empty level bit in the AHB
configuration register (TXFELVL bit in OTG_FS_GAHBCFG) the OTG_FS core indicates
that an IN endpoint Tx-FIFO is half or completely empty using the Tx FIFO empty interrupt
(NPTXFE bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS). The application reads the device all endpoint interrupt
register (DAINT) to know which IN endpoint needs to be served. The application should
preliminarily check that enough free space is available by reading the device IN endpoint-x
transmit FIFO status register (DTXFSTSx). If so, the application then pushes the transmit
data into the Tx-FIFOn by writing to the endpoint-related push address.

26.11.1 Host Rx FIFO

The host uses one receiver FIFO for all periodic and nonperiodic transactions. The FIFO is
used as a receive buffer to hold the received data (payload of the received packet) from the
USB until it is transferred to the system memory. Packets received from any remote IN
endpoint are stacked back-to-back until free space is available. The status of each received
packet with the host channel destination, byte count, data PID and validity of the received

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 713/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

data are also stored into the FIFO. The size of the receive FIFO is configured in the receive
FIFO size register (GRXFSIZ).
The single receive FIFO architecture makes it highly efficient for the USB host to fill in the
receive data buffer:
● all IN configured host channels share the same RAM buffer (shared FIFO)
● the OTG FS Core can fill in the receive FIFO up to the limit for any sequence of IN
tokens driven by the host software
The application receives the Rx FIFO not-empty interrupt as long as there is at least one
packet available for download. It reads the packet information from the receive status read
and pop register and finally pops the data off the receive FIFO.

26.11.2 Host Tx FIFOs

The host uses one transmit FIFO for all non-periodic (control and bulk) OUT transactions
and one transmit FIFO for all periodic (isochronous and interrupt) OUT transactions. FIFOs
are used as transmit buffers to hold the data (payload of the transmit packet) to be
transmitted over the USB. The size of the periodic (nonperiodic) Tx FIFO is configured in the
host periodic (nonperiodic) transmit FIFO size (HPTXFSIZ/GNPTXFSIZ) register.
The two Tx FIFO implementation derives from the higher priority granted to the periodic type
of traffic over the USB frame. At the beginning of each frame, the built-in host scheduler
processes the periodic request queue first, followed by the nonperiodic request queue.
The two transmit FIFO architecture provides the USB host with separate optimization for
periodic and nonperiodic transmit data buffer management:
● all host channels configured to support periodic (nonperiodic) transactions in the OUT
direction share the same RAM buffer (shared FIFOs)
● the OTG FS Core can fill in the periodic (nonperiodic) transmit FIFO up to the limit for
any sequence of OUT tokens driven by the host software
The OTG_FS Core issues the periodic Tx FIFO empty interrupt (PTXFE bit in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS) as long as the periodic Tx-FIFO is half or completely empty, depending
on the value of the periodic Tx-FIFO empty level bit in the AHB configuration register
(PTXFELVL bit in OTG_FS_GAHBCFG). The application can push the transmission data in
advance as long as free space is available in both the periodic Tx FIFO and the periodic
request queue. The host periodic transmit FIFO and queue status register (HPTXSTS) can
be read to know how much space is available in both.
OTG_FS Core issues the non periodic Tx FIFO empty interrupt (NPTXFE bit in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS) as long as the nonperiodic Tx FIFO is half or completely empty
depending on the non periodic Tx FIFO empty level bit in the AHB configuration register
(TXFELVL bit in OTG_FS_GAHBCFG). The application can push the transmission data as
long as free space is available in both the nonperiodic Tx FIFO and nonperiodic request
queue. The host nonperiodic transmit FIFO and queue status register (GNPTXSTS) can be
read to know how much space is available in both.

26.12 USB system performance

Best USB and system performance is achieved owing to the large RAM buffers, the highly
configurable FIFO sizes, the quick 32-bit FIFO access through AHB push/pop registers and,
especially, the advanced FIFO control mechanism. Indeed, this mechanism allows the

714/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

OTG_FS to fill in the available RAM space at best regardless of the current USB sequence.
With these features:
● The application gains good margins to calibrate its intervention in order to optimize the
CPU bandwidth usage:
– it can accumulate large amounts of transmission data in advance compared to
when they are effectively sent over the USB
– it benefits of a large time margin to download data from the single receive FIFO
● The USB Core is able to maintain its full operating rate, that is to provide maximum full-
speed bandwidth with a great margin of autonomy versus application intervention:
– it has a large reserve of transmission data at its disposal to autonomously manage
the sending of data over the USB
– it has a lot of empty space available in the receive buffer to autonomously fill it in
with the data coming from the USB
As the OTG_FS Core is able to fill in the 1.25 Kbyte RAM buffer very efficiently, and as
1.25 Kbyte of transmit/receive data is more than enough to cover a full speed frame, the
USB system is able to withstand the maximum full-speed data rate for up to one USB frame
(1 ms) without any CPU intervention.

26.13 OTG_FS interrupts

When the OTG_FS controller is operating in one mode, either Device or Host, the
application must not access registers from the other mode. If an illegal access occurs, a
mode mismatch interrupt is generated and reflected in the Core interrupt register (MMIS bit
in the OTG_FS_GINTSTS register). When the core switches from one mode to the other,
the registers in the new mode of operation must be reprogrammed as they would be after a
power-on reset.
Figure 268 shows the interrupt hierarchy.

26.14 OTG_FS control and status registers

By reading from and writing to the control and status registers (CSRs) through the AHB
slave interface, the application controls the OTG_FS controller. These registers are 32 bits
wide, and the addresses are 32-bit block aligned. CSRs are classified as follows:
● Core global registers
● Host-mode registers
● Host global registers
● Host port CSRs
● Host channel-specific registers
● Device-mode registers
● Device global registers
● Device endpoint-specific registers
● Power and clock-gating registers
● Data FIFO (DFIFO) access registers
Only the Core global, Power and clock-gating, Data FIFO access, and Host port control and
status registers can be accessed in both Host and Device modes. When the OTG_FS
controller is operating in one mode, either Device or Host, the application must not access
registers from the other mode. If an illegal access occurs, a mode mismatch interrupt is
generated and reflected in the Core interrupt register (MMIS bit in the OTG_FS_GINTSTS
register). When the core switches from one mode to the other, the registers in the new mode
of operation must be reprogrammed as they would be after a power-on reset.

Data FIFO (DFIFO) access register map

These registers, available in both Host and Device modes, are used to read or write the
FIFO space for a specific endpoint or a channel, in a given direction. If a host channel is of
type IN, the FIFO can only be read on the channel. Similarly, if a host channel is of type
OUT, the FIFO can only be written on the channel.

Bit 1 HSRST: HCLK soft reset
The application uses this bit to flush the control logic in the AHB Clock domain. Only AHB Clock

transactions on the AHB, following the protocol.
CSR control bits used by the AHB clock domain state machines are cleared.
To clear this interrupt, status mask bits that control the interrupt status and are generated by
the AHB clock domain state machine are cleared.
Because interrupt status bits are not cleared, the application can get the status of any core
events that occurred after it set this bit.
This is a self-clearing bit that the core clears after all necessary logic is reset in the core. This
can take several clocks, depending on the core’s current state.
Note: Accessible in both Device and Host modes.

Resets the HCLK and PCLK domains as follows:
Clears the interrupts and all the CSR register bits except for the following bits:

– GAYEHCLK bit in OTG_FS_PCGCCTL
– PWRCLMP bit in OTG_FS_PCGCCTL
– STPPCLK bit in OTG_FS_PCGCCTL
– FSLSPCS bit in OTG_FS_HCFG
– DSPD bit in OTG_FS_DCFG
All module state machines (except for the AHB slave unit) are reset to the Idle state, and all
the transmit FIFOs and the receive FIFO are flushed.
Any transactions on the AHB Master are terminated as soon as possible, after completing the
last data phase of an AHB transfer. Any transactions on the USB are terminated immediately.
The application can write to this bit any time it wants to reset the core. This is a self-clearing bit
and the core clears this bit after all the necessary logic is reset in the core, which can take
several clocks, depending on the current state of the core. Once this bit has been cleared, the
software must wait at least 3 PHY clocks before accessing the PHY domain (synchronization
delay). The software must also check that bit 31 in this register is set to 1 (AHB Master is Idle)
before starting any operation.
Typically, the software reset is used during software development and also when you
dynamically change the PHY selection bits in the above listed USB configuration registers.
When you change the PHY, the corresponding clock for the PHY is selected and used in the
PHY domain. Once a new clock is selected, the PHY domain has to be reset for proper
operation.

Address offset for Read: 0x01C
Address offset for Pop: 0x020
Reset value: 0x0000 0000
A read to the Receive status debug read register returns the contents of the top of the
Receive FIFO. A read to the Receive status read and pop register additionally pops the top
data entry out of the RxFIFO.
The receive status contents must be interpreted differently in Host and Device modes. The
core ignores the receive status pop/read when the receive FIFO is empty and returns a
value of 0x0000 0000. The application must only pop the Receive Status FIFO when the
Receive FIFO non-empty bit of the Core interrupt register (RXFLVL bit in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS) is asserted.

This register is available only in Host mode. Currently, the OTG Host supports only one port.
A single register holds USB port-related information such as USB reset, enable, suspend,
resume, connect status, and test mode for each port. It is shown in Figure 268. The rc_w1
bits in this register can trigger an interrupt to the application through the Host port interrupt
bit of the core interrupt register (HPRTINT bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS). On a Port Interrupt,
the application must read this register and clear the bit that caused the interrupt. For the
rc_w1 bits, the application must write a 1 to the bit to clear the interrupt.

0: Port not in reset
1: Port in reset
The application must leave this bit set for a minimum duration of at least 10 ms to start a reset
on the port. The application can leave it set for another 10 ms in addition to the required
minimum duration, before clearing the bit, even though there is no maximum limit set by the

Bit 7 PSUSP: Port suspend
The application sets this bit to put this port in Suspend mode. The core only stops sending
SOFs when this is set. To stop the PHY clock, the application must set the Port clock stop bit,
which asserts the suspend input pin of the PHY.
The read value of this bit reflects the current suspend status of the port. This bit is cleared by
the core after a remote wakeup signal is detected or the application sets the Port reset bit or
Port resume bit in this register or the Resume/remote wakeup detected interrupt bit or

OTG_FS device endpoint-x transfer size register (OTG_FS_DIEPTSIZx)

(x = 1..3, where x = Endpoint_number)
Address offset: 0x910 + (Endpoint_number × 0x20)
Reset value: 0x0000 0000
The application must modify this register before enabling the endpoint. Once the endpoint is
enabled using the Endpoint enable bit in the Device endpoint-x control registers (EPENA bit
in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx), the core modifies this register. The application can only read this
register once the core has cleared the Endpoint enable bit.

Bit 28:19 PKTCNT: Packet count
Indicates the total number of USB packets that constitute the Transfer Size amount of data for
this endpoint.
This field is decremented every time a packet (maximum size or short packet) is read from the
TxFIFO.
Bits 18:0 XFRSIZ: Transfer size
This field contains the transfer size in bytes for the current endpoint. The core only interrupts
the application after it has exhausted the transfer size amount of data. The transfer size can be
set to the maximum packet size of the endpoint, to be interrupted at the end of each packet.
The core decrements this field every time a packet from the external memory is written to the

26.15.1 Core initialization

The application must perform the core initialization sequence. If the cable is connected
during power-up, the current mode of operation bit in the Core interrupt register (CMOD bit
in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) reflects the mode. The OTG_FS controller enters Host mode when
an “A” plug is connected or Device mode when a “B” plug is connected.
This section explains the initialization of the OTG_FS controller after power-on. The
application must follow the initialization sequence irrespective of Host or Device mode
operation. All core global registers are initialized according to the core’s configuration:
1. Program the following fields in the Global AHB configuration (OTG_FS_GAHBCFG)
register:
– Global interrupt mask bit GINT = 1
– RxFIFO non-empty (RXFLVL bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS)
– Periodic TxFIFO empty level
2. Program the following fields in OTG_FS_GUSBCFG register:
– HNP capable bit
– SRP capable bit
– FS timeout calibration field
– USB turnaround time field
3. The software must unmask the following bits in the GINTMSK register:
OTG interrupt mask
Mode mismatch interrupt mask
4. The software can read the CMOD bit in OTG_FS_GINTSTS to determine whether the
OTG_FS controller is operating in Host or Device mode.

792/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

26.15.2 Host initialization

To initialize the core as host, the application must perform the following steps:
1. Program the HPRTINT in GINTMSK to unmask
2. Program the OTG_FS_HCFG register to select full-speed host
3. Program the PPWR bit in OTG_FS_HPRT to 1. This drives VBUS on the USB.
4. Wait for the PCDET interrupt in OTG_FS_HPRT0. This indicates that a device is
connecting to the port.
5. Program the PRST bit in OTG_FS_HPRT to 1. This starts the reset process.
6. Wait at least 10 ms for the reset process to complete.
7. Program the PRST bit in OTG_FS_HPRT to 0.
8. Wait for the PENCHNG interrupt in OTG_FS_HPRT.
9. Read the PSPD bit in OTG_FS_HPRT to get the enumerated speed.
10. Program the HFIR register with a value corresponding to the selected PHY clock 1
11. Program the OTG_FS_RXFSIZE register to select the size of the receive FIFO.
12. Program the OTG_FS_NPTXFSIZE register to select the size and the start address of
the Non-periodic transmit FIFO for non-periodic transactions.
13. Program the OTG_FS_HPTXFSIZ register to select the size and start address of the
periodic transmit FIFO for periodic transactions.
To communicate with devices, the system software must initialize and enable at least one
channel.

26.15.3 Device initialization

The application must perform the following steps to initialize the core as a device on power-
up or after a mode change from Host to Device.
1. Program the following fields in the OTG_FS_DCFG register:
– Device speed
– Non-zero-length status OUT handshake
2. Program the OTG_FS_GINTMSK register to unmask the following interrupts:
– USB reset
– Enumeration done
– Early suspend
– USB suspend
– SOF
3. Program the VBUSBSEN bit in the OTG_FS_GCCFG register to enable VBUS sensing
in “B” device mode and supply the 5 volts across the pull-up resistor on the DP line.
4. Wait for the USBRST interrupt in OTG_FS_GINTSTS. It indicates that a reset has been
detected on the USB that lasts for about 10 ms on receiving this interrupt.
Wait for the ENUMDNE interrupt in OTG_FS_GINTSTS. This interrupt indicates the end of
reset on the USB. On receiving this interrupt, the application must read the OTG_FS_DSTS
register to determine the enumeration speed and perform the steps listed in Endpoint
initialization on enumeration completion on page 812.
At this point, the device is ready to accept SOF packets and perform control transfers on
control endpoint 0.

26.15.4 Host programming model

Channel initialization
The application must initialize one or more channels before it can communicate with
connected devices. To initialize and enable a channel, the application must perform the
following steps:
1. Program the GINTMSK register to unmask the following:
2. Channel interrupt
– Non-periodic transmit FIFO empty for OUT transactions (applicable for Slave
mode that operates in pipelined transaction-level with the packet count field
programmed with more than one).
– Non-periodic transmit FIFO half-empty for OUT transactions (applicable for Slave
mode that operates in pipelined transaction-level with the packet count field
programmed with more than one).
3. Program the OTG_FS_HAINTMSK register to unmask the selected channels’
interrupts.
4. Program the OTG_FS_HCINTMSK register to unmask the transaction-related
interrupts of interest given in the host channel interrupt register.
5. Program the selected channel’s OTG_FS_HCTSIZx register with the total transfer size,
in bytes, and the expected number of packets, including short packets. The application
must program the PID field with the initial data PID (to be used on the first OUT
transaction or to be expected from the first IN transaction).
6. Program the OTG_FS_HCCHARx register of the selected channel with the device’s
endpoint characteristics, such as type, speed, direction, and so forth. (The channel can
be enabled by setting the channel enable bit to 1 only when the application is ready to
transmit or receive any packet).

Halting a channel
The application can disable any channel by programming the OTG_FS_HCCHARx register
with the CHDIS and CHENA bits set to 1. This enables the OTG_FS host to flush the posted
requests (if any) and generates a channel halted interrupt. The application must wait for the
CHH interrupt in OTG_FS_HCINTx before reallocating the channel for other transactions.
The OTG_FS host does not interrupt the transaction that has already been started on the
USB.
Before disabling a channel, the application must ensure that there is at least one free space
available in the non-periodic request queue (when disabling a non-periodic channel) or the
periodic request queue (when disabling a periodic channel). The application can simply
flush the posted requests when the Request queue is full (before disabling the channel), by
programming the OTG_FS_HCCHARx register with the CHDIS bit set to 1, and the CHENA
bit cleared to 0.
The application is expected to disable a channel on any of the following conditions:
1. When an XFRC interrupt in OTG_FS_HCINTx is received during a non-periodic IN
transfer or high-bandwidth interrupt IN transfer (Slave mode only)
2. When an STALL, TXERR, BBERR or DTERR interrupt in OTG_FS_HCINTx is received
for an IN or OUT channel (Slave mode only). For high-bandwidth interrupt INs in Slave
mode, once the application has received a DTERR interrupt it must disable the channel
and wait for a channel halted interrupt. The application must be able to receive other
interrupts (DTERR, Nak, Data, TXERR) for the same channel before receiving the halt.

794/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

3. When a DISCINT (Disconnect Device) interrupt in OTG_FS_GINTSTS is received.

(The application is expected to disable all enabled channels
4. When the application aborts a transfer before normal completion.

Operational model
The application must initialize a channel before communicating to the connected device.
This section explains the sequence of operation to be performed for different types of USB
transactions.
● Writing the transmit FIFO
The OTG_FS host automatically writes an entry (OUT request) to the periodic/non-
periodic request queue, along with the last DWORD write of a packet. The application
must ensure that at least one free space is available in the periodic/non-periodic
request queue before starting to write to the transmit FIFO. The application must
always write to the transmit FIFO in DWORDs. If the packet size is non-DWORD
aligned, the application must use padding. The OTG_FS host determines the actual
packet size based on the programmed maximum packet size and transfer size.

● Bulk and control OUT/SETUP transactions

A typical bulk or control OUT/SETUP pipelined transaction-level operation is shown in
Figure 272. See channel 1 (ch_1). Two bulk OUT packets are transmitted. A control
SETUP transaction operates in the same way but has only one packet. The
assumptions are:
– The application is attempting to send two maximum-packet-size packets (transfer
size = 1, 024 bytes).
– The non-periodic transmit FIFO can hold two packets (128 KB for FS).
– The non-periodic request queue depth = 4.
● Normal bulk and control OUT/SETUP operations
The sequence of operations in Figure 272 (channel 1) is as follows:
a) Initialize channel 1
b) Write the first packet for channel 1
c) Along with the last DWORD write, the core writes an entry to the non-periodic
request queue
d) As soon as the non-periodic queue becomes non-empty, the core attempts to
send an OUT token in the current frame
e) Write the second (last) packet for channel 1
f) The core generates the XFRC interrupt as soon as the last transaction is
completed successfully
g) In response to the XFRC interrupt, de-allocate the channel for other transfers
h) Handling non-ACK responses

● Bulk and control IN transactions
A typical bulk or control IN pipelined transaction-level operation is shown in Figure 273.
See channel 2 (ch_2). The assumptions are:
– The application is attempting to receive two maximum-packet-size packets
(transfer size = 1 024 bytes).
– The receive FIFO can contain at least one maximum-packet-size packet and two
status DWORDs per packet (72 bytes for FS).
– The non-periodic request queue depth = 4.

The sequence of operations is as follows:

a) Initialize channel 2.
b) Set the CHENA bit in HCCHAR2 to write an IN request to the non-periodic request
queue.
c) The core attempts to send an IN token after completing the current OUT
transaction.
d) The core generates an RXFLVL interrupt as soon as the received packet is written
to the receive FIFO.
e) In response to the RXFLVL interrupt, mask the RXFLVL interrupt and read the
received packet status to determine the number of bytes received, then read the
receive FIFO accordingly. Following this, unmask the RXFLVL interrupt.

800/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

f) The core generates the RXFLVL interrupt for the transfer completion status entry
in the receive FIFO.
g) The application must read and ignore the receive packet status when the receive
packet status is not an IN data packet (PKTSTS in GRXSTSR  0b0010).
h) The core generates the XFRC interrupt as soon as the receive packet status is
read.
i) In response to the XFRC interrupt, disable the channel and stop writing the
OTG_FS_HCCHAR2 register for further requests. The core writes a channel
disable request to the non-periodic request queue as soon as the
OTG_FS_HCCHAR2 register is written.
j) The core generates the RXFLVL interrupt as soon as the halt status is written to
the receive FIFO.
k) Read and ignore the receive packet status.
l) The core generates a CHH interrupt as soon as the halt status is popped from the
receive FIFO.
m) In response to the CHH interrupt, de-allocate the channel for other transfers.
n) Handling non-ACK responses
● Control transactions in slave mode
Setup, Data, and Status stages of a control transfer must be performed as three
separate transfers. Setup-, Data- or Status-stage OUT transactions are performed
similarly to the bulk OUT transactions explained previously. Data- or Status-stage IN
transactions are performed similarly to the bulk IN transactions explained previously.
For all three stages, the application is expected to set the EPTYP field in
OTG_FS_HCCHAR1 to Control. During the Setup stage, the application is expected to
set the PID field in OTG_FS_HCTSIZ1 to SETUP.
● Interrupt OUT transactions
A typical interrupt OUT operation in Slave mode is shown in Figure 274. The
assumptions are:
– The application is attempting to send one packet in every frame (up to 1 maximum
packet size), starting with the odd frame (transfer size = 1 024 bytes)
– The periodic transmit FIFO can hold one packet (1 KB)
– Periodic request queue depth = 4
The sequence of operations is as follows:
a) Initialize and enable channel 1. The application must set the ODDFRM bit in
OTG_FS_HCCHAR1.
b) Write the first packet for channel 1. For a high-bandwidth interrupt transfer, the
application must write the subsequent packets up to MCNT (maximum number of
packets to be transmitted in the next frame times) before switching to another
channel.
c) Along with the last DWORD write of each packet, the OTG_FS host writes an entry
to the periodic request queue.
d) The OTG_FS host attempts to send an OUT token in the next (odd) frame.
e) The OTG_FS host generates an XFRC interrupt as soon as the last packet is
transmitted successfully.
f) In response to the XFRC interrupt, reinitialize the channel for the next transfer.

c) The OTG_FS host writes an IN request to the periodic request queue for each

d) The OTG_FS host attempts to send an IN token in the next (odd) frame.
e) As soon as the IN packet is received and written to the receive FIFO, the OTG_FS
host generates an RXFLVL interrupt.
f) In response to the RXFLVL interrupt, read the received packet status to determine
the number of bytes received, then read the receive FIFO accordingly. The
application must mask the RXFLVL interrupt before reading the receive FIFO, and
unmask after reading the entire packet.
g) The core generates the RXFLVL interrupt for the transfer completion status entry
in the receive FIFO. The application must read and ignore the receive packet
status when the receive packet status is not an IN data packet (PKTSTS in
GRXSTSR  0b0010).
h) The core generates an XFRC interrupt as soon as the receive packet status is
read.
i) In response to the XFRC interrupt, read the PKTCNT field in OTG_FS_HCTSIZ2.
If the PKTCNT bit in OTG_FS_HCTSIZ2 is not equal to 0, disable the channel
before re-initializing the channel for the next transfer, if any). If PKTCNT bit in
OTG_FS_HCTSIZ2 = 0, reinitialize the channel for the next transfer. This time, the
application must reset the ODDFRM bit in OTG_FS_HCCHAR2.

● Isochronous OUT transactions

A typical isochronous OUT operation in Slave mode is shown in Figure 275. The
assumptions are:
– The application is attempting to send one packet every frame (up to 1 maximum
packet size), starting with an odd frame. (transfer size = 1 024 bytes).
– The periodic transmit FIFO can hold one packet (1 KB).
– Periodic request queue depth = 4.
The sequence of operations is as follows:
a) Initialize and enable channel 1. The application must set the ODDFRM bit in
OTG_FS_HCCHAR1.
b) Write the first packet for channel 1. For a high-bandwidth isochronous transfer, the
application must write the subsequent packets up to MCNT (maximum number of
packets to be transmitted in the next frame times before switching to another
channel.
c) Along with the last DWORD write of each packet, the OTG_FS host writes an entry
to the periodic request queue.
d) The OTG_FS host attempts to send the OUT token in the next frame (odd).
e) The OTG_FS host generates the XFRC interrupt as soon as the last packet is
transmitted successfully.
f) In response to the XFRC interrupt, reinitialize the channel for the next transfer.
g) Handling non-ACK responses

● Isochronous IN transactions
The assumptions are:
– The application is attempting to receive one packet (up to 1 maximum packet size)
in every frame starting with the next odd frame (transfer size = 1 024 bytes).
– The receive FIFO can hold at least one maximum-packet-size packet and two
status DWORDs per packet (1 031 bytes).
– Periodic request queue depth = 4.
The sequence of operations is as follows:
a) Initialize channel 2. The application must set the ODDFRM bit in
OTG_FS_HCCHAR2.
b) Set the CHENA bit in OTG_FS_HCCHAR2 to write an IN request to the periodic
request queue. For a high-bandwidth isochronous transfer, the application must
write the OTG_FS_HCCHAR2 register MCNT (maximum number of expected
packets in the next frame times) before switching to another channel.
c) The OTG_FS host writes an IN request to the periodic request queue for each
OTG_FS_HCCHAR2 register write with the CHENA bit set.
d) The OTG_FS host attempts to send an IN token in the next odd frame.
e) As soon as the IN packet is received and written to the receive FIFO, the OTG_FS
host generates an RXFLVL interrupt.
f) In response to the RXFLVL interrupt, read the received packet status to determine
the number of bytes received, then read the receive FIFO accordingly. The
application must mask the RXFLVL interrupt before reading the receive FIFO, and
unmask it after reading the entire packet.
g) The core generates an RXFLVL interrupt for the transfer completion status entry in
the receive FIFO. This time, the application must read and ignore the receive
packet status when the receive packet status is not an IN data packet (PKTSTS bit
in OTG_FS_GRXSTSR  0b0010).
h) The core generates an XFRC interrupt as soon as the receive packet status is
read.
i) In response to the XFRC interrupt, read the PKTCNT field in OTG_FS_HCTSIZ2.
If PKTCNT 0 in OTG_FS_HCTSIZ2, disable the channel before re-initializing the
channel for the next transfer, if any. If PKTCNT = 0 in OTG_FS_HCTSIZ2,
reinitialize the channel for the next transfer. This time, the application must reset
the ODDFRM bit in OTG_FS_HCCHAR2.
● Selecting the queue depth
Choose the periodic and non-periodic request queue depths carefully to match the
number of periodic/non-periodic endpoints accessed.
The non-periodic request queue depth affects the performance of non-periodic
transfers. The deeper the queue (along with sufficient FIFO size), the more often the
core is able to pipeline non-periodic transfers. If the queue size is small, the core is able
to put in new requests only when the queue space is freed up.
The core’s periodic request queue depth is critical to perform periodic transfers as
scheduled. Select the periodic queue depth, based on the number of periodic transfers
scheduled in a microframe. In Slave mode, however, the application must also take into
account the disable entry that must be put into the queue. So, if there are two non-high-
bandwidth periodic endpoints, the periodic request queue depth must be at least 4. If at
least one high-bandwidth endpoint is supported, the queue depth must be 8. If the

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 809/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

periodic request queue depth is smaller than the periodic transfers scheduled in a
microframe, a frame overrun condition occurs.
● Handling babble conditions
OTG_FS controller handles two cases of babble: packet babble and port babble.
Packet babble occurs if the device sends more data than the maximum packet size for
the channel. Port babble occurs if the core continues to receive data from the device at
EOF2 (the end of frame 2, which is very close to SOF).
When OTG_FS controller detects a packet babble, it stops writing data into the Rx
buffer and waits for the end of packet (EOP). When it detects an EOP, it flushes already
written data in the Rx buffer and generates a Babble interrupt to the application.
When OTG_FS controller detects a port babble, it flushes the RxFIFO and disables the
port. The core then generates a Port disabled interrupt (HPRTINT in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS, PENCHNG in OTG_FS_HPRT). On receiving this interrupt, the
application must determine that this is not due to an overcurrent condition (another
cause of the Port Disabled interrupt) by checking POCA in OTG_FS_HPRT, then
perform a soft reset. The core does not send any more tokens after it has detected a
port babble condition.

26.15.5 Device programming model

Endpoint initialization on USB reset
1. Set the NAK bit for all OUT endpoints
– SNAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx (for all OUT endpoints)
2. Unmask the following interrupt bits
– INEP0 = 1 in OTG_FS_DAINTMSK (control 0 IN endpoint)
– OUTEP0 = 1 in OTG_FS_DAINTMSK (control 0 OUT endpoint)
– STUP = 1 in DOEPMSK
– XFRC = 1 in DOEPMSK
– XFRC = 1 in DIEPMSK
– TOC = 1 in DIEPMSK
3. Set up the Data FIFO RAM for each of the FIFOs
– Program the OTG_FS_GRXFSIZ register, to be able to receive control OUT data
and setup data. If thresholding is not enabled, at a minimum, this must be equal to
1 max packet size of control endpoint 0 + 2 DWORDs (for the status of the control
OUT data packet) + 10 DWORDs (for setup packets).
– Program the OTG_FS_GNPTXFSIZ register (depending on the FIFO number
chosen) to be able to transmit control IN data. At a minimum, this must be equal to
1 max packet size of control endpoint 0.
4. Program the following fields in the endpoint-specific registers for control OUT endpoint
0 to receive a SETUP packet
– STUPCNT = 3 in OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZ0 (to receive up to 3 back-to-back SETUP
packets)
At this point, all initialization required to receive SETUP packets is done.

810/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

Endpoint initialization on enumeration completion

1. On the Enumeration Done interrupt (ENUMDNE in OTG_FS_GINTSTS), read the
OTG_FS_DSTS register to determine the enumeration speed.
2. Program the MPSIZ field in OTG_FS_DIEPCTL0 to set the maximum packet size. This
step configures control endpoint 0. The maximum packet size for a control endpoint
depends on the enumeration speed.
At this point, the device is ready to receive SOF packets and is configured to perform control
transfers on control endpoint 0.

Endpoint initialization on SetAddress command

This section describes what the application must do when it receives a SetAddress
command in a SETUP packet.
1. Program the OTG_FS_DCFG register with the device address received in the
SetAddress command
1. Program the core to send out a status IN packet

Endpoint initialization on SetConfiguration/SetInterface command

This section describes what the application must do when it receives a SetConfiguration or
SetInterface command in a SETUP packet.
1. When a SetConfiguration command is received, the application must program the
endpoint registers to configure them with the characteristics of the valid endpoints in
the new configuration.
2. When a SetInterface command is received, the application must program the endpoint
registers of the endpoints affected by this command.
3. Some endpoints that were active in the prior configuration or alternate setting are not
valid in the new configuration or alternate setting. These invalid endpoints must be
deactivated.
4. Unmask the interrupt for each active endpoint and mask the interrupts for all inactive
endpoints in the OTG_FS_DAINTMSK register.
5. Set up the Data FIFO RAM for each FIFO.
6. After all required endpoints are configured; the application must program the core to
send a status IN packet.
At this point, the device core is configured to receive and transmit any type of data packet.

Endpoint activation
This section describes the steps required to activate a device endpoint or to configure an
existing device endpoint to a new type.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 811/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

1. Program the characteristics of the required endpoint into the following fields of the
OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx register (for IN or bidirectional endpoints) or the
OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx register (for OUT or bidirectional endpoints).
– Maximum packet size
– USB active endpoint = 1
– Endpoint start data toggle (for interrupt and bulk endpoints)
– Endpoint type
– TxFIFO number
2. Once the endpoint is activated, the core starts decoding the tokens addressed to that
endpoint and sends out a valid handshake for each valid token received for the
endpoint.

Endpoint deactivation
This section describes the steps required to deactivate an existing endpoint.
1. In the endpoint to be deactivated, clear the USB active endpoint bit in the
OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx register (for IN or bidirectional endpoints) or the
OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx register (for OUT or bidirectional endpoints).
2. Once the endpoint is deactivated, the core ignores tokens addressed to that endpoint,
which results in a timeout on the USB.
Note: 1 The application must meet the following conditions to set up the device core to handle traffic:
NPTXFEM and RXFLVLM in GINTMSK must be cleared.

26.15.6 Operational model

SETUP and OUT data transfers
This section describes the internal data flow and application-level operations during data
OUT transfers and SETUP transactions.
● Packet read
This section describes how to read packets (OUT data and SETUP packets) from the
receive FIFO in Slave mode.
1. On catching an RXFLVL interrupt (OTG_FS_GINTSTS register), the application must
read the Receive status pop register (OTG_FS_GRXSTSP).
2. The application can mask the RXFLVL interrupt (in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) by writing to
RXFLVL = 0 (in GINTMSK), until it has read the packet from the receive FIFO.
3. If the received packet’s byte count is not 0, the byte count amount of data is popped
from the receive Data FIFO and stored in memory. If the received packet byte count is
0, no data is popped from the receive data FIFO.
4. The receive FIFO’s packet status readout indicates one of the following:
a) Global OUT NAK pattern:
PKTSTS = Global OUT NAK, BCNT = 0x000, EPNUM = Don’t Care (0x0),
DPID = Don’t Care (0b00).
These data indicate that the global OUT NAK bit has taken effect.
b) SETUP packet pattern:
PKTSTS = SETUP, BCNT = 0x008, EPNUM = Control EP Num, DPID = D0.
These data indicate that a SETUP packet for the specified endpoint is now
available for reading from the receive FIFO.

812/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

c) Setup stage done pattern:

PKTSTS = Setup Stage Done, BCNT = 0x0, EPNUM = Control EP Num,
DPID = Don’t Care (0b00).
These data indicate that the Setup stage for the specified endpoint has completed
and the Data stage has started. After this entry is popped from the receive FIFO,
the core asserts a Setup interrupt on the specified control OUT endpoint.
d) Data OUT packet pattern:
PKTSTS = DataOUT, BCNT = size of the received data OUT packet (0  BCNT
 1 024), EPNUM = EPNUM on which the packet was received, DPID = Actual
Data PID.
e) Data transfer completed pattern:
PKTSTS = Data OUT Transfer Done, BCNT = 0x0, EPNUM = OUT EP Num
on which the data transfer is complete, DPID = Don’t Care (0b00).
These data indicate that an OUT data transfer for the specified OUT endpoint has
completed. After this entry is popped from the receive FIFO, the core asserts a
Transfer Completed interrupt on the specified OUT endpoint.
5. After the data payload is popped from the receive FIFO, the RXFLVL interrupt
(OTG_FS_GINTSTS) must be unmasked.
6. Steps 1–5 are repeated every time the application detects assertion of the interrupt line
due to RXFLVL in OTG_FS_GINTSTS. Reading an empty receive FIFO can result in
undefined core behavior.
Figure 276 provides a flowchart of the above procedure.

● SETUP transactions
This section describes how the core handles SETUP packets and the application’s
sequence for handling SETUP transactions.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 813/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

● Application requirements
1. To receive a SETUP packet, the STUPCNT field (OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx) in a control
OUT endpoint must be programmed to a non-zero value. When the application
programs the STUPCNT field to a non-zero value, the core receives SETUP packets
and writes them to the receive FIFO, irrespective of the NAK status and EPENA bit
setting in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx. The STUPCNT field is decremented every time the
control endpoint receives a SETUP packet. If the STUPCNT field is not programmed to
a proper value before receiving a SETUP packet, the core still receives the SETUP
packet and decrements the STUPCNT field, but the application may not be able to
determine the correct number of SETUP packets received in the Setup stage of a
control transfer.
– STUPCNT = 3 in OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx
2. The application must always allocate some extra space in the Receive data FIFO, to be
able to receive up to three SETUP packets on a control endpoint.
– The space to be reserved is 10 DWORDs. Three DWORDs are required for the
first SETUP packet, 1 DWORD is required for the Setup stage done DWORD and
6 DWORDs are required to store two extra SETUP packets among all control
endpoints.
– 3 DWORDs per SETUP packet are required to store 8 bytes of SETUP data and 4
bytes of SETUP status (Setup packet pattern). The core reserves this space in the
receive data.
– FIFO to write SETUP data only, and never uses this space for data packets.
3. The application must read the 2 DWORDs of the SETUP packet from the receive FIFO.
4. The application must read and discard the Setup stage done DWORD from the receive
FIFO.
● Internal data flow
5. When a SETUP packet is received, the core writes the received data to the receive
FIFO, without checking for available space in the receive FIFO and irrespective of the
endpoint’s NAK and STALL bit settings.
– The core internally sets the IN NAK and OUT NAK bits for the control IN/OUT
endpoints on which the SETUP packet was received.
6. For every SETUP packet received on the USB, 3 DWORDs of data are written to the
receive FIFO, and the STUPCNT field is decremented by 1.
– The first DWORD contains control information used internally by the core
– The second DWORD contains the first 4 bytes of the SETUP command
– The third DWORD contains the last 4 bytes of the SETUP command
7. When the Setup stage changes to a Data IN/OUT stage, the core writes an entry
(Setup stage done DWORD) to the receive FIFO, indicating the completion of the Setup
stage.
8. On the AHB side, SETUP packets are emptied by the application.
9. When the application pops the Setup stage done DWORD from the receive FIFO, the
core interrupts the application with an STUP interrupt (OTG_FS_DOEPINTx),
indicating it can process the received SETUP packet.
– The core clears the endpoint enable bit for control OUT endpoints.

● Application programming sequence

1. Program the OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx register.
– STUPCNT = 3
2. Wait for the RXFLVL interrupt (OTG_FS_GINTSTS) and empty the data packets from
the receive FIFO.
3. Assertion of the STUP interrupt (OTG_FS_DOEPINTx) marks a successful completion
of the SETUP Data Transfer.
– On this interrupt, the application must read the OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx register to
determine the number of SETUP packets received and process the last received
SETUP packet.

● Handling more than three back-to-back SETUP packets

Per the USB 2.0 specification, normally, during a SETUP packet error, a host does not send
more than three back-to-back SETUP packets to the same endpoint. However, the USB 2.0
specification does not limit the number of back-to-back SETUP packets a host can send to
the same endpoint. When this condition occurs, the OTG_FS controller generates an
interrupt (B2BSTUP in OTG_FS_DOEPINTx).
● Setting the global OUT NAK
Internal data flow:
1. When the application sets the Global OUT NAK (SGONAK bit in OTG_FS_DCTL), the
core stops writing data, except SETUP packets, to the receive FIFO. Irrespective of the
space availability in the receive FIFO, non-isochronous OUT tokens receive a NAK
handshake response, and the core ignores isochronous OUT data packets
2. The core writes the Global OUT NAK pattern to the receive FIFO. The application must
reserve enough receive FIFO space to write this data pattern.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 815/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

3. When the application pops the Global OUT NAK pattern DWORD from the receive
FIFO, the core sets the GONAKEFF interrupt (OTG_FS_GINTSTS).
4. Once the application detects this interrupt, it can assume that the core is in Global OUT
NAK mode. The application can clear this interrupt by clearing the SGONAK bit in
OTG_FS_DCTL.
Application programming sequence
1. To stop receiving any kind of data in the receive FIFO, the application must set the
Global OUT NAK bit by programming the following field:
– SGONAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DCTL
2. Wait for the assertion of the GONAKEFF interrupt in OTG_FS_GINTSTS. When
asserted, this interrupt indicates that the core has stopped receiving any type of data
except SETUP packets.
3. The application can receive valid OUT packets after it has set SGONAK in
OTG_FS_DCTL and before the core asserts the GONAKEFF interrupt
(OTG_FS_GINTSTS).
4. The application can temporarily mask this interrupt by writing to the GINAKEFFM bit in
GINTMSK.
– GINAKEFFM = 0 in GINTMSK
5. Whenever the application is ready to exit the Global OUT NAK mode, it must clear the
SGONAK bit in OTG_FS_DCTL. This also clears the GONAKEFF interrupt
(OTG_FS_GINTSTS).
– OTG_FS_DCTL = 1 in CGONAK
6. If the application has masked this interrupt earlier, it must be unmasked as follows:
– GINAKEFFM = 1 in GINTMSK
● Disabling an OUT endpoint
The application must use this sequence to disable an OUT endpoint that it has enabled.
Application programming sequence:
1. Before disabling any OUT endpoint, the application must enable Global OUT NAK
mode in the core.
– SGONAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DCTL
2. Wait for the GONAKEFF interrupt (OTG_FS_GINTSTS)
3. Disable the required OUT endpoint by programming the following fields:
– EPDIS = 1 in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx
– SNAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx
4. Wait for the EPDISD interrupt (OTG_FS_DOEPINTx), which indicates that the OUT
endpoint is completely disabled. When the EPDISD interrupt is asserted, the core also
clears the following bits:
– EPDIS = 0 in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx
– EPENA = 0 in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx
5. The application must clear the Global OUT NAK bit to start receiving data from other
non-disabled OUT endpoints.
– SGONAK = 0 in OTG_FS_DCTL

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

● Generic non-isochronous OUT data transfers

This section describes a regular non-isochronous OUT data transfer (control, bulk, or
interrupt).
Application requirements:
1. Before setting up an OUT transfer, the application must allocate a buffer in the memory
to accommodate all data to be received as part of the OUT transfer.
2. For OUT transfers, the transfer size field in the endpoint’s transfer size register must be
a multiple of the maximum packet size of the endpoint, adjusted to the DWORD
boundary.
– transfer size[EPNUM] = n × (MPSIZ[EPNUM] + 4 – (MPSIZ[EPNUM] mod 4))
– packet count[EPNUM] = n
– n>0
3. On any OUT endpoint interrupt, the application must read the endpoint’s transfer size
register to calculate the size of the payload in the memory. The received payload size
can be less than the programmed transfer size.
– Payload size in memory = application programmed initial transfer size – core
updated final transfer size
– Number of USB packets in which this payload was received = application
programmed initial packet count – core updated final packet count
Internal data flow:
1. The application must set the transfer size and packet count fields in the endpoint-
specific registers, clear the NAK bit, and enable the endpoint to receive the data.
2. Once the NAK bit is cleared, the core starts receiving data and writes it to the receive
FIFO, as long as there is space in the receive FIFO. For every data packet received on
the USB, the data packet and its status are written to the receive FIFO. Every packet
(maximum packet size or short packet) written to the receive FIFO decrements the
packet count field for that endpoint by 1.
– OUT data packets received with bad data CRC are flushed from the receive FIFO
automatically.
– After sending an ACK for the packet on the USB, the core discards non-
isochronous OUT data packets that the host, which cannot detect the ACK, re-
sends. The application does not detect multiple back-to-back data OUT packets
on the same endpoint with the same data PID. In this case the packet count is not
decremented.
– If there is no space in the receive FIFO, isochronous or non-isochronous data
packets are ignored and not written to the receive FIFO. Additionally, non-
isochronous OUT tokens receive a NAK handshake reply.
– In all the above three cases, the packet count is not decremented because no data
are written to the receive FIFO.
3. When the packet count becomes 0 or when a short packet is received on the endpoint,
the NAK bit for that endpoint is set. Once the NAK bit is set, the isochronous or non-
isochronous data packets are ignored and not written to the receive FIFO, and non-
isochronous OUT tokens receive a NAK handshake reply.
4. After the data are written to the receive FIFO, the application reads the data from the
receive FIFO and writes it to external memory, one packet at a time per endpoint.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 817/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

5. At the end of every packet write on the AHB to external memory, the transfer size for
the endpoint is decremented by the size of the written packet.
6. The OUT data transfer completed pattern for an OUT endpoint is written to the receive
FIFO on one of the following conditions:
– The transfer size is 0 and the packet count is 0
– The last OUT data packet written to the receive FIFO is a short packet
(0  packet size < maximum packet size)
7. When either the application pops this entry (OUT data transfer completed), a transfer
completed interrupt is generated for the endpoint and the endpoint enable is cleared.
Application programming sequence:
1. Program the OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx register for the transfer size and the corresponding
packet count.
2. Program the OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx register with the endpoint characteristics, and set
the EPENA and CNAK bits.
– EPENA = 1 in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx
– CNAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx
3. Wait for the RXFLVL interrupt (in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) and empty the data packets from
the receive FIFO.
– This step can be repeated many times, depending on the transfer size.
4. Asserting the XFRC interrupt (OTG_FS_DOEPINTx) marks a successful completion of
the non-isochronous OUT data transfer.
5. Read the OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx register to determine the size of the received data
payload.
● Generic isochronous OUT data transfer
This section describes a regular isochronous OUT data transfer.
Application requirements:
1. All the application requirements for non-isochronous OUT data transfers also apply to
isochronous OUT data transfers.
2. For isochronous OUT data transfers, the transfer size and packet count fields must
always be set to the number of maximum-packet-size packets that can be received in a
single frame and no more. Isochronous OUT data transfers cannot span more than 1
frame.
3. The application must read all isochronous OUT data packets from the receive FIFO
(data and status) before the end of the periodic frame (EOPF interrupt in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS).
4. To receive data in the following frame, an isochronous OUT endpoint must be enabled
after the EOPF (OTG_FS_GINTSTS) and before the SOF (OTG_FS_GINTSTS).
Internal data flow:
1. The internal data flow for isochronous OUT endpoints is the same as that for non-
isochronous OUT endpoints, but for a few differences.
2. When an isochronous OUT endpoint is enabled by setting the Endpoint Enable and
clearing the NAK bits, the Even/Odd frame bit must also be set appropriately. The core
receives data on an isochronous OUT endpoint in a particular frame only if the
following condition is met:
– EONUM (in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx) = SOFFN[0] (in OTG_FS_DSTS)

818/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

3. When the application completely reads an isochronous OUT data packet (data and
status) from the receive FIFO, the core updates the RXDPID field in
OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx with the data PID of the last isochronous OUT data packet read
from the receive FIFO.
Application programming sequence:
1. Program the OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx register for the transfer size and the corresponding
packet count
2. Program the OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx register with the endpoint characteristics and set
the Endpoint Enable, ClearNAK, and Even/Odd frame bits.
– EPENA = 1
– CNAK = 1
– EONUM = (0: Even/1: Odd)
3. In Slave mode, wait for the RXFLVL interrupt (in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) and empty the
data packets from the receive FIFO
– This step can be repeated many times, depending on the transfer size.
4. The assertion of the XFRC interrupt (in OTG_FS_DOEPINTx) marks the completion of
the isochronous OUT data transfer. This interrupt does not necessarily mean that the
data in memory are good.
5. This interrupt cannot always be detected for isochronous OUT transfers. Instead, the
application can detect the IISOOXFRM interrupt in OTG_FS_GINTSTS.
6. Read the OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx register to determine the size of the received transfer
and to determine the validity of the data received in the frame. The application must
treat the data received in memory as valid only if one of the following conditions is met:
– RXDPID = D0 (in OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx) and the number of USB packets in
which this payload was received = 1
– RXDPID = D1 (in OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx) and the number of USB packets in
which this payload was received = 2
– RXDPID = D2 (in OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx) and the number of USB packets in
which this payload was received = 3
The number of USB packets in which this payload was received =
Application programmed initial packet count – Core updated final packet count
The application can discard invalid data packets.
● Incomplete isochronous OUT data transfers
This section describes the application programming sequence when isochronous OUT data
packets are dropped inside the core.
Internal data flow:
1. For isochronous OUT endpoints, the XFRC interrupt (in OTG_FS_DOEPINTx) may not
always be asserted. If the core drops isochronous OUT data packets, the application
could fail to detect the XFRC interrupt (OTG_FS_DOEPINTx) under the following
circumstances:
– When the receive FIFO cannot accommodate the complete ISO OUT data packet,
the core drops the received ISO OUT data
– When the isochronous OUT data packet is received with CRC errors
– When the isochronous OUT token received by the core is corrupted

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 819/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

– When the application is very slow in reading the data from the receive FIFO
2. When the core detects an end of periodic frame before transfer completion to all
isochronous OUT endpoints, it asserts the incomplete Isochronous OUT data interrupt
(IISOOXFRM in OTG_FS_GINTSTS), indicating that an XFRC interrupt (in
OTG_FS_DOEPINTx) is not asserted on at least one of the isochronous OUT
endpoints. At this point, the endpoint with the incomplete transfer remains enabled, but
no active transfers remain in progress on this endpoint on the USB.
Application programming sequence:
1. Asserting the IISOOXFRM interrupt (OTG_FS_GINTSTS) indicates that in the current
frame, at least one isochronous OUT endpoint has an incomplete transfer.
2. If this occurs because isochronous OUT data is not completely emptied from the
endpoint, the application must ensure that the application empties all isochronous OUT
data (data and status) from the receive FIFO before proceeding.
– When all data are emptied from the receive FIFO, the application can detect the
XFRC interrupt (OTG_FS_DOEPINTx). In this case, the application must re-
enable the endpoint to receive isochronous OUT data in the next frame.
3. When it receives an IISOOXFRM interrupt (in OTG_FS_GINTSTS), the application
must read the control registers of all isochronous OUT endpoints
(OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx) to determine which endpoints had an incomplete transfer in the
current microframe. An endpoint transfer is incomplete if both the following conditions
are met:
– EONUM bit (in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx) = SOFFN[0] (in OTG_FS_DSTS)
– EPENA = 1 (in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx)
4. The previous step must be performed before the SOF interrupt (in OTG_FS_GINTSTS)
is detected, to ensure that the current frame number is not changed.
5. For isochronous OUT endpoints with incomplete transfers, the application must discard
the data in the memory and disable the endpoint by setting the EPDIS bit in
OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx.
6. Wait for the EPDIS interrupt (in OTG_FS_DOEPINTx) and enable the endpoint to
receive new data in the next frame.
– Because the core can take some time to disable the endpoint, the application may
not be able to receive the data in the next frame after receiving bad isochronous
data.
● Stalling a non-isochronous OUT endpoint
This section describes how the application can stall a non-isochronous endpoint.
1. Put the core in the Global OUT NAK mode.
2. Disable the required endpoint
– When disabling the endpoint, instead of setting the SNAK bit in
OTG_FS_DOEPCTL, set STALL = 1 (in OTG_FS_DOEPCTL).
The STALL bit always takes precedence over the NAK bit.
3. When the application is ready to end the STALL handshake for the endpoint, the STALL
bit (in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx) must be cleared.
4. If the application is setting or clearing a STALL for an endpoint due to a
SetFeature.Endpoint Halt or ClearFeature.Endpoint Halt command, the STALL bit must
be set or cleared before the application sets up the Status stage transfer on the control
endpoint.

After a SetConfiguration/SetInterface command, the application initializes all OUT endpoints

by setting CNAK = 1 and EPENA = 1 (in OTG_FS_DOEPCTLx), and setting a suitable
XFRSIZ and PKTCNT in the OTG_FS_DOEPTSIZx register.
1. Host attempts to send data (OUT token) to an endpoint.
2. When the core receives the OUT token on the USB, it stores the packet in the RxFIFO
because space is available there.
3. After writing the complete packet in the RxFIFO, the core then asserts the RXFLVL
interrupt (in OTG_FS_GINTSTS).
4. On receiving the PKTCNT number of USB packets, the core internally sets the NAK bit
for this endpoint to prevent it from receiving any more packets.
5. The application processes the interrupt and reads the data from the RxFIFO.
6. When the application has read all the data (equivalent to XFRSIZ), the core generates
an XFRC interrupt (in OTG_FS_DOEPINTx).
7. The application processes the interrupt and uses the setting of the XFRC interrupt bit
(in OTG_FS_DOEPINTx) to determine that the intended transfer is complete.

IN data transfers
● Packet write
This section describes how the application writes data packets to the endpoint FIFO in Slave
mode when dedicated transmit FIFOs are enabled.
1. The application can either choose the polling or the interrupt mode.
– In polling mode, the application monitors the status of the endpoint transmit data
FIFO by reading the OTG_FS_DTXFSTSx register, to determine if there is enough
space in the data FIFO.
– In interrupt mode, the application waits for the TXFE interrupt (in
OTG_FS_DIEPINTx) and then reads the OTG_FS_DTXFSTSx register, to
determine if there is enough space in the data FIFO.
– To write a single non-zero length data packet, there must be space to write the
entire packet in the data FIFO.
– To write zero length packet, the application must not look at the FIFO space.
2. Using one of the above mentioned methods, when the application determines that
there is enough space to write a transmit packet, the application must first write into the
endpoint control register, before writing the data into the data FIFO. Typically, the
application, must do a read modify write on the OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx register to avoid
modifying the contents of the register, except for setting the Endpoint Enable bit.
The application can write multiple packets for the same endpoint into the transmit FIFO, if
space is available. For periodic IN endpoints, the application must write packets only for one
microframe. It can write packets for the next periodic transaction only after getting transfer
complete for the previous transaction.
● Setting IN endpoint NAK
Internal data flow:
1. When the application sets the IN NAK for a particular endpoint, the core stops
transmitting data on the endpoint, irrespective of data availability in the endpoint’s
transmit FIFO.
2. Non-isochronous IN tokens receive a NAK handshake reply
– Isochronous IN tokens receive a zero-data-length packet reply
3. The core asserts the INEPNE (IN endpoint NAK effective) interrupt in
OTG_FS_DIEPINTx in response to the SNAK bit in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx.
4. Once this interrupt is seen by the application, the application can assume that the
endpoint is in IN NAK mode. This interrupt can be cleared by the application by setting
the CNAK bit in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx.
Application programming sequence:

822/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

1. To stop transmitting any data on a particular IN endpoint, the application must set the
IN NAK bit. To set this bit, the following field must be programmed.
– SNAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
2. Wait for assertion of the INEPNE interrupt in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx. This interrupt
indicates that the core has stopped transmitting data on the endpoint.
3. The core can transmit valid IN data on the endpoint after the application has set the
NAK bit, but before the assertion of the NAK Effective interrupt.
4. The application can mask this interrupt temporarily by writing to the INEPNEM bit in
DIEPMSK.
– INEPNEM = 0 in DIEPMSK
5. To exit Endpoint NAK mode, the application must clear the NAK status bit (NAKSTS) in
OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx. This also clears the INEPNE interrupt (in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx).
– CNAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
6. If the application masked this interrupt earlier, it must be unmasked as follows:
– INEPNEM = 1 in DIEPMSK
● IN endpoint disable
Use the following sequence to disable a specific IN endpoint that has been previously
enabled.
Application programming sequence:
1. The application must stop writing data on the AHB for the IN endpoint to be disabled.
2. The application must set the endpoint in NAK mode.
– SNAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
3. Wait for the INEPNE interrupt in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx.
4. Set the following bits in the OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx register for the endpoint that must be
disabled.
– EPDIS = 1 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
– SNAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
5. Assertion of the EPDISD interrupt in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx indicates that the core has
completely disabled the specified endpoint. Along with the assertion of the interrupt,
the core also clears the following bits:
– EPENA = 0 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
– EPDIS = 0 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
6. The application must read the OTG_FS_DIEPTSIZx register for the periodic IN EP, to
calculate how much data on the endpoint were transmitted on the USB.
7. The application must flush the data in the Endpoint transmit FIFO, by setting the
following fields in the OTG_FS_GRSTCTL register:
– TXFNUM (in OTG_FS_GRSTCTL) = Endpoint transmit FIFO number
– TXFFLSH in (OTG_FS_GRSTCTL) = 1
The application must poll the OTG_FS_GRSTCTL register, until the TXFFLSH bit is cleared
by the core, which indicates the end of flush operation. To transmit new data on this
endpoint, the application can re-enable the endpoint at a later point.

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

● Generic non-periodic IN data transfers

Application requirements:
1. Before setting up an IN transfer, the application must ensure that all data to be
transmitted as part of the IN transfer are part of a single buffer.
2. For IN transfers, the Transfer Size field in the Endpoint Transfer Size register denotes a
payload that constitutes multiple maximum-packet-size packets and a single short
packet. This short packet is transmitted at the end of the transfer.
– To transmit a few maximum-packet-size packets and a short packet at the end of
the transfer:
Transfer size[EPNUM] = x × MPSIZ[EPNUM] + sp
If (sp > 0), then packet count[EPNUM] = x + 1.
Otherwise, packet count[EPNUM] = x
– To transmit a single zero-length data packet:
Transfer size[EPNUM] = 0
Packet count[EPNUM] = 1
– To transmit a few maximum-packet-size packets and a zero-length data packet at
the end of the transfer, the application must split the transfer into two parts. The
first sends maximum-packet-size data packets and the second sends the zero-
length data packet alone.
First transfer: transfer size[EPNUM] = x × MPSIZ[epnum]; packet count = n;
Second transfer: transfer size[EPNUM] = 0; packet count = 1;
3. Once an endpoint is enabled for data transfers, the core updates the Transfer size
register. At the end of the IN transfer, the application must read the Transfer size
register to determine how much data posted in the transmit FIFO have already been
sent on the USB.
4. Data fetched into transmit FIFO = Application-programmed initial transfer size – core-
updated final transfer size
– Data transmitted on USB = (application-programmed initial packet count – Core
updated final packet count) × MPSIZ[EPNUM]
– Data yet to be transmitted on USB = (Application-programmed initial transfer size
– data transmitted on USB)
Internal data flow:
1. The application must set the transfer size and packet count fields in the endpoint-
specific registers and enable the endpoint to transmit the data.
2. The application must also write the required data to the transmit FIFO for the endpoint.
3. Every time a packet is written into the transmit FIFO by the application, the transfer size
for that endpoint is decremented by the packet size. The data is fetched from the
memory by the application, until the transfer size for the endpoint becomes 0. After
writing the data into the FIFO, the “number of packets in FIFO” count is incremented
(this is a 3-bit count, internally maintained by the core for each IN endpoint transmit
FIFO. The maximum number of packets maintained by the core at any time in an IN
endpoint FIFO is eight). For zero-length packets, a separate flag is set for each FIFO,
without any data in the FIFO.
4. Once the data are written to the transmit FIFO, the core reads them out upon receiving
an IN token. For every non-isochronous IN data packet transmitted with an ACK

824/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

handshake, the packet count for the endpoint is decremented by one, until the packet
count is zero. The packet count is not decremented on a timeout.
5. For zero length packets (indicated by an internal zero length flag), the core sends out a
zero-length packet for the IN token and decrements the packet count field.
6. If there are no data in the FIFO for a received IN token and the packet count field for
that endpoint is zero, the core generates an “IN token received when TxFIFO is empty”
(ITTXFE) Interrupt for the endpoint, provided that the endpoint NAK bit is not set. The
core responds with a NAK handshake for non-isochronous endpoints on the USB.
7. The core internally rewinds the FIFO pointers and no timeout interrupt is generated.
8. When the transfer size is 0 and the packet count is 0, the transfer complete (XFRC)
interrupt for the endpoint is generated and the endpoint enable is cleared.
Application programming sequence:
1. Program the OTG_FS_DIEPTSIZx register with the transfer size and corresponding
packet count.
2. Program the OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx register with the endpoint characteristics and set the
CNAK and EPENA (Endpoint Enable) bits.
3. When transmitting non-zero length data packet, the application must poll the
OTG_FS_DTXFSTSx register (where x is the FIFO number associated with that
endpoint) to determine whether there is enough space in the data FIFO. The
application can optionally use TXFE (in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx) before writing the data.
● Generic periodic IN data transfers
This section describes a typical periodic IN data transfer.
Application requirements:
1. Application requirements 1, 2, 3, and 4 of Generic non-periodic IN data transfers on
page 825 also apply to periodic IN data transfers, except for a slight modification of
requirement 2.
– The application can only transmit multiples of maximum-packet-size data packets
or multiples of maximum-packet-size packets, plus a short packet at the end. To
transmit a few maximum-packet-size packets and a short packet at the end of the
transfer, the following conditions must be met:
transfer size[EPNUM] = x × MPSIZ[EPNUM] + sp
(where x is an integer  0, and 0  sp < MPSIZ[EPNUM])
If (sp > 0), packet count[EPNUM] = x + 1
Otherwise, packet count[EPNUM] = x;
MCNT[EPNUM] = packet count[EPNUM]
– The application cannot transmit a zero-length data packet at the end of a transfer.
It can transmit a single zero-length data packet by itself. To transmit a single zero-
length data packet:
– transfer size[EPNUM] = 0
packet count[EPNUM] = 1
MCNT[EPNUM] = packet count[EPNUM]

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 825/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

2. The application can only schedule data transfers one frame at a time.
– (MCNT – 1) × MPSIZ  XFERSIZ  MCNT × MPSIZ
– PKTCNT = MCNT (in OTG_FS_DIEPTSIZx)
– If XFERSIZ < MCNT × MPSIZ, the last data packet of the transfer is a short
packet.
– Note that: MCNT is in OTG_FS_DIEPTSIZx, MPSIZ is in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx,
PKTCNT is in OTG_FS_DIEPTSIZx and XFERSIZ is in OTG_FS_DIEPTSIZx
3. The complete data to be transmitted in the frame must be written into the transmit FIFO
by the application, before the IN token is received. Even when 1 DWORD of the data to
be transmitted per frame is missing in the transmit FIFO when the IN token is received,
the core behaves as when the FIFO is empty. When the transmit FIFO is empty:
– A zero data length packet would be transmitted on the USB for isochronous IN
endpoints
– A NAK handshake would be transmitted on the USB for interrupt IN endpoints
4. For a high-bandwidth IN endpoint with three packets in a frame, the application can
program the endpoint FIFO size to be 2 × max_pkt_size and have the third packet
loaded in after the first packet has been transmitted on the USB.
Internal data flow:
1. The application must set the transfer size and packet count fields in the endpoint-
specific registers and enable the endpoint to transmit the data.
2. The application must also write the required data to the associated transmit FIFO for
the endpoint.
3. Every time the application writes a packet to the transmit FIFO, the transfer size for that
endpoint is decremented by the packet size. The data are fetched from application
memory until the transfer size for the endpoint becomes 0.
4. When an IN token is received for a periodic endpoint, the core transmits the data in the
FIFO, if available. If the complete data payload (complete packet, in dedicated FIFO
mode) for the frame is not present in the FIFO, then the core generates an IN token
received when TxFIFO empty interrupt for the endpoint.
– A zero-length data packet is transmitted on the USB for isochronous IN endpoints
– A NAK handshake is transmitted on the USB for interrupt IN endpoints
5. The packet count for the endpoint is decremented by 1 under the following conditions:
– For isochronous endpoints, when a zero- or non-zero-length data packet is
transmitted
– For interrupt endpoints, when an ACK handshake is transmitted
– When the transfer size and packet count are both 0, the transfer completed
interrupt for the endpoint is generated and the endpoint enable is cleared.
6. At the “Periodic frame Interval” (controlled by PFIVL in OTG_FS_DCFG), when the
core finds non-empty any of the isochronous IN endpoint FIFOs scheduled for the
current frame non-empty, the core generates an IISOIXFR interrupt in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS.

826/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

Application programming sequence:

1. Program the OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx register with the endpoint characteristics and set the
CNAK and EPENA bits.
2. Write the data to be transmitted in the next frame to the transmit FIFO.
3. Asserting the ITTXFE interrupt (in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx) indicates that the application
has not yet written all data to be transmitted to the transmit FIFO.
4. If the interrupt endpoint is already enabled when this interrupt is detected, ignore the
interrupt. If it is not enabled, enable the endpoint so that the data can be transmitted on
the next IN token attempt.
5. Asserting the XFRC interrupt (in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx) with no ITTXFE interrupt in
OTG_FS_DIEPINTx indicates the successful completion of an isochronous IN transfer.
A read to the OTG_FS_DIEPTSIZx register must give transfer size = 0 and packet
count = 0, indicating all data were transmitted on the USB.
6. Asserting the XFRC interrupt (in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx), with or without the ITTXFE
interrupt (in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx), indicates the successful completion of an interrupt
IN transfer. A read to the OTG_FS_DIEPTSIZx register must give transfer size = 0 and
packet count = 0, indicating all data were transmitted on the USB.
7. Asserting the incomplete isochronous IN transfer (IISOIXFR) interrupt in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS with none of the aforementioned interrupts indicates the core did
not receive at least 1 periodic IN token in the current frame.
● Incomplete isochronous IN data transfers
This section describes what the application must do on an incomplete isochronous IN data
transfer.
Internal data flow:
1. An isochronous IN transfer is treated as incomplete in one of the following conditions:
a) The core receives a corrupted isochronous IN token on at least one isochronous
IN endpoint. In this case, the application detects an incomplete isochronous IN
transfer interrupt (IISOIXFR in OTG_FS_GINTSTS).
b) The application is slow to write the complete data payload to the transmit FIFO
and an IN token is received before the complete data payload is written to the
FIFO. In this case, the application detects an IN token received when TxFIFO
empty interrupt in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx. The application can ignore this interrupt,
as it eventually results in an incomplete isochronous IN transfer interrupt
(IISOIXFR in OTG_FS_GINTSTS) at the end of periodic frame.
The core transmits a zero-length data packet on the USB in response to the
received IN token.
2. The application must stop writing the data payload to the transmit FIFO as soon as
possible.
3. The application must set the NAK bit and the disable bit for the endpoint.
4. The core disables the endpoint, clears the disable bit, and asserts the Endpoint Disable
interrupt for the endpoint.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 827/995

USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS) RM0008

Application programming sequence:

1. The application can ignore the IN token received when TxFIFO empty interrupt in
OTG_FS_DIEPINTx on any isochronous IN endpoint, as it eventually results in an
incomplete isochronous IN transfer interrupt (in OTG_FS_GINTSTS).
2. Assertion of the incomplete isochronous IN transfer interrupt (in OTG_FS_GINTSTS)
indicates an incomplete isochronous IN transfer on at least one of the isochronous IN
endpoints.
3. The application must read the Endpoint Control register for all isochronous IN
endpoints to detect endpoints with incomplete IN data transfers.
4. The application must stop writing data to the Periodic Transmit FIFOs associated with
these endpoints on the AHB.
5. Program the following fields in the OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx register to disable the
endpoint:
– SNAK = 1 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
– EPDIS = 1 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
6. The assertion of the Endpoint Disabled interrupt in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx indicates that
the core has disabled the endpoint.
– At this point, the application must flush the data in the associated transmit FIFO or
overwrite the existing data in the FIFO by enabling the endpoint for a new transfer
in the next microframe. To flush the data, the application must use the
OTG_FS_GRSTCTL register.
● Stalling non-isochronous IN endpoints
This section describes how the application can stall a non-isochronous endpoint.
Application programming sequence:
1. Disable the IN endpoint to be stalled. Set the STALL bit as well.
2. EPDIS = 1 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx, when the endpoint is already enabled
– STALL = 1 in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx
– The STALL bit always takes precedence over the NAK bit
3. Assertion of the Endpoint Disabled interrupt (in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx) indicates to the
application that the core has disabled the specified endpoint.
4. The application must flush the non-periodic or periodic transmit FIFO, depending on
the endpoint type. In case of a non-periodic endpoint, the application must re-enable
the other non-periodic endpoints that do not need to be stalled, to transmit data.
5. Whenever the application is ready to end the STALL handshake for the endpoint, the
STALL bit must be cleared in OTG_FS_DIEPCTLx.
6. If the application sets or clears a STALL bit for an endpoint due to a
SetFeature.Endpoint Halt command or ClearFeature.Endpoint Halt command, the
STALL bit must be set or cleared before the application sets up the Status stage
transfer on the control endpoint.
Special case: stalling the control OUT endpoint
The core must stall IN/OUT tokens if, during the data stage of a control transfer, the host
sends more IN/OUT tokens than are specified in the SETUP packet. In this case, the
application must enable the ITTXFE interrupt in OTG_FS_DIEPINTx and the OTEPDIS
interrupt in OTG_FS_DOEPINTx during the data stage of the control transfer, after the core
has transferred the amount of data specified in the SETUP packet. Then, when the

RM0008 USB on-the-go full-speed (OTG_FS)

application receives this interrupt, it must set the STALL bit in the corresponding endpoint
control register, and clear this interrupt.

26.15.7 Worst case response time

When the OTG_FS controller acts as a device, there is a worst case response time for any
tokens that follow an isochronous OUT. This worst case response time depends on the AHB
clock frequency.
The core registers are in the AHB domain, and the core does not accept another token
before updating these register values. The worst case is for any token following an
isochronous OUT, because for an isochronous transaction, there is no handshake and the
next token could come sooner. This worst case value is 7 PHY clocks when the AHB clock is
the same as the PHY clock. When the AHB clock is faster, this value is smaller.
If this worst case condition occurs, the core responds to bulk/interrupt tokens with a NAK
and drops isochronous and SETUP tokens. The host interprets this as a timeout condition
for SETUP and retries the SETUP packet. For isochronous transfers, the Incomplete
isochronous IN transfer interrupt (IISOIXFR) and Incomplete isochronous OUT transfer
interrupt (IISOOXFR) inform the application that isochronous IN/OUT packets were
dropped.

Choosing the value of TRDT in OTG_FS_GUSBCFG

The value in TRDT (OTG_FS_GUSBCFG) is the time it takes for the MAC, in terms of PHY
clocks after it has received an IN token, to get the FIFO status, and thus the first data from
the PFC (packet FIFO controller) block. This time involves the synchronization delay
between the PHY and AHB clocks. The worst case delay for this is when the AHB clock is
the same as the PHY clock. In this case, the delay is 5 clocks.
Once the MAC receives an IN token, this information (token received) is synchronized to the
AHB clock by the PFC (the PFC runs on the AHB clock). The PFC then reads the data from
the SPRAM and writes them into the dual clock source buffer. The MAC then reads the data
out of the source buffer (4 deep).
If the AHB is running at a higher frequency than the PHY, the application can use a smaller
value for TRDT (in OTG_FS_GUSBCFG).
Figure 279 has the following signals:
● tkn_rcvd: Token received information from MAC to PFC
● dynced_tkn_rcvd: Doubled sync tkn_rcvd, from PCLK to HCLK domain
● spr_read: Read to SPRAM
● spr_addr: Address to SPRAM
● spr_rdata: Read data from SPRAM
● srcbuf_push: Push to the source buffer
● srcbuf_rdata: Read data from the source buffer. Data seen by MAC
The application can use the following formula to calculate the value of TRDT:
4 × AHB clock + 1 PHY clock = (2 clock sync + 1 clock memory address + 1 clock
memory data from sync RAM) + (1 PHY clock (next PHY clock MAC can sample the 2
clock FIFO outputs)

26.15.8 OTG programming model

The OTG_FS controller is an OTG device supporting HNP and SRP. When the core is
connected to an “A” plug, it is referred to as an A-device. When the core is connected to a
“B” plug it is referred to as a B-device. In Host mode, the OTG_FS controller turns off VBUS
to conserve power. SRP is a method by which the B-device signals the A-device to turn on
VBUS power. A device must perform both data-line pulsing and VBUS pulsing, but a host can
detect either data-line pulsing or VBUS pulsing for SRP. HNP is a method by which the B-
device negotiates and switches to host role. In Negotiated mode after HNP, the B-device
suspends the bus and reverts to the device role.

A-device session request protocol

The application must set the SRP-capable bit in the Core USB configuration register. This
enables the OTG_FS controller to detect SRP as an A-device.

3. The device must detect SE0 for at least 2 ms to start SRP when VBUS power is off.
4. To initiate SRP, the device turns on its data line pull-up resistor for 5 to 10 ms. The
OTG_FS controller detects data-line pulsing.
5. The device drives VBUS above the A-device session valid (2.0 V minimum) for VBUS
pulsing.
The OTG_FS controller interrupts the application on detecting SRP. The Session
request detected bit is set in Global interrupt status register (SRQINT set in
OTG_FS_GINTSTS).

port power bit by writing the port power bit in the Host port control and status register.
The PHY indicates port power-on by asserting the VBUS_VALID signal.
7. When the USB is powered, the device connects, completing the SRP process.

B-device session request protocol

The application must set the SRP-capable bit in the Core USB configuration register. This
enables the OTG_FS controller to initiate SRP as a B-device. SRP is a means by which the
OTG_FS controller can request a new session from the host.

2. The PHY indicates the session’s end to the device. This is the initial condition for SRP.
The OTG_FS controller requires 2 ms of SE0 before initiating SRP.
For a USB 1.1 full-speed serial transceiver, the application must wait until VBUS
discharges to 0.2 V after BSVLD (in OTG_FS_GOTGCTL) is deasserted. This
discharge time can be obtained from the transceiver vendor and varies from one
transceiver to another.
3. The application initiates SRP by writing the session request bit in the OTG Control and
status register. The OTG_FS controller perform data-line pulsing followed by VBUS
pulsing.
4. The host detects SRP from either the data-line or VBUS pulsing, and turns on VBUS.
The PHY indicates VBUS power-on to the device.
5. The OTG_FS controller performs VBUS pulsing.
The host starts a new session by turning on VBUS, indicating SRP success. The
OTG_FS controller interrupts the application by setting the session request success
status change bit in the OTG interrupt status register. The application reads the session
request success bit in the OTG control and status register.
6. When the USB is powered, the OTG_FS controller connects, completing the SRP
process.

27.4 Ethernet functional description: SMI, MII and RMII

The Ethernet peripheral consists of a MAC 802.3 (media access control) with a dedicated
DMA controller. It supports both default media-independent interface (MII) and reduced
media-independent interface (RMII) through one selection bit (refer to AFIO_MAPR
register).
The DMA controller interfaces with the Core and memories through the AHB Master and
Slave interfaces. The AHB Master Interface controls data transfers while the AHB Slave
interface accesses Control and Status Registers (CSR) space.
The Transmit FIFO (Tx FIFO) buffers data read from system memory by the DMA before
transmission by the MAC Core. Similarly, the Receive FIFO (Rx FIFO) stores the Ethernet
frames received from the line until they are transferred to system memory by the DMA.
The Ethernet peripheral also includes an SMI to communicate with external PHY. A set of
configuration registers permit the user to select the wanted mode and features for the MAC
and the DMA controller.

27.4.1 Station management interface: SMI

The station management interface (SMI) allows the application to access any PHY registers
through a 2-wire clock and data lines. The interface supports accessing up to 32 PHYs.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 841/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

The application can select one of the 32 PHYs and one of the 32 registers within any PHY
and send control data or receive status information. Only one register in one PHY can be
addressed at any given time.
Both the MDC clock line and the MDIO data line are implemented as alternate function I/O
in the microcontroller:
● MDC: a periodic clock that provides the timing reference for the data transfer at the
maximum frequency of 2.5 MHz. The minimum high and low times for MDC must be
160 ns each, and the minimum period for MDC must be 400 ns. In idle state the SMI
management interface drives the MDC clock signal low.
● MDIO: data input/output bitstream to transfer status information to/from the PHY device
synchronously with the MDC clock signal

SMI frame format

The frame structure related to a read or write operation is shown in Table 13, the order of bit
transmission must be from left to right.

Read 1... 1 01 10 ppppp rrrrr Z0 ddddddddddddddd Z

Write 1... 1 01 01 ppppp rrrrr 10 ddddddddddddddd Z

The management frame consists of eight fields:

● Preamble: each transaction (read or write) can be initiated with the preamble field that
corresponds to 32 contiguous logic one bits on the MDIO line with 32 corresponding
cycles on MDC. This field is used to establish synchronization with the PHY device.
● Start: the start of frame is defined by a <01> pattern to verify transitions on the line
from the default logic one state to zero and back to one.
● Operation: defines the type of transaction (read or write) in progress.
● PADDR: the PHY address is 5 bits, allowing 32 unique PHY addresses. The MSB bit of
the address is the first transmitted and received.
● RADDR: the register address is 5 bits, allowing 32 individual registers to be addressed
within the selected PHY device. The MSB bit of the address is the first transmitted and
received.
● TA: the turn-around field defines a 2-bit pattern between the RADDR and DATA fields to
avoid contention during a read transaction. For a read transaction the MAC controller

842/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

drives high-impedance on the MDIO line for the 2 bits of TA. The PHY device must
drive a high-impedance state on the first bit of TA, a zero bit on the second one.
For a write transaction, the MAC controller drives a <10> pattern during the TA field.
The PHY device must drive a high-impedance state for the 2 bits of TA.
● Data: the data field is 16-bit. The first bit transmitted and received must be bit 15 of the
ETH_MIID register.
● Idle: the MDIO line is driven in high-impedance state. All three-state drivers must be
disabled and the PHY’s pull-up resistor keeps the line at logic one.

When the application sets the MII Write and Busy bits (in Ethernet MAC MII address register
(ETH_MACMIIAR)), the SMI initiates a write operation into the PHY registers by transferring
the PHY address, the register address in PHY, and the write data (in Ethernet MAC MII data
register (ETH_MACMIIDR). The application should not change the MII Address register
contents or the MII Data register while the transaction is ongoing. Write operations to the MII
Address register or the MII Data Register during this period are ignored (the Busy bit is
high), and the transaction is completed without any error. After the Write operation has
completed, the SMI indicates this by resetting the Busy bit.
Figure 286 shows the frame format for the write operation.

SMI read operation

When the user sets the MII Busy bit in the Ethernet MAC MII address register
(ETH_MACMIIAR) with the MII Write bit at 0, the SMI initiates a read operation in the PHY
registers by transferring the PHY address and the register address in PHY. The application
should not change the MII Address register contents or the MII Data register while the
transaction is ongoing. Write operations to the MII Address register or MII Data Register
during this period are ignored (the Busy bit is high) and the transaction is completed without
any error. After the read operation has completed, the SMI resets the Busy bit and then
updates the MII Data register with the data read from the PHY.
Figure 287 shows the frame format for the read operation.

MII clock sources

To generate both TX_CLK and RX_CLK clock signals, the external PHY must be clocked
with an external 25 MHz as shown in Figure 289. Instead of using an external 25 MHz
quartz to provide this clock, the STM32F107xx microcontroller can output this signal on its
MCO pin. In this case, the PLL multiplier has to be configured so as to get the desired
frequency on the MCO pin, from the 25 MHz external quartz.

27.4.3 Reduced media-independent interface: RMII

The reduced media-independent interface (RMII) specification reduces the pin count
between the STM32F20xxx Ethernet peripheral and the external Ethernet in 10/100 Mbit/s.
According to the IEEE 802.3u standard, an MII contains 16 pins for data and control. The
RMII specification is dedicated to reduce the pin count to 7 pins (a 62.5% decrease in pin
count).
The RMII is instantiated between the MAC and the PHY. This helps translation of the MAC’s
MII into the RMII. The RMII block has the following characteristics:
● It supports 10-Mbit/s and 100-Mbit/s operating rates
● The clock reference must be doubled to 50 MHz
● The same clock reference must be sourced externally to both MAC and external
Ethernet PHY
● It provides independent 2-bit wide (dibit) transmit and receive data paths

27.5 Ethernet functional description: MAC 802.3

The IEEE 802.3 International Standard for local area networks (LANs) employs the
CSMA/CD (carrier sense multiple access with collision detection) as the access method.
The Ethernet peripheral consists of a MAC 802.3 (media access control) controller with
media independent interface (MII) and a dedicated DMA controller.
The MAC block implements the LAN CSMA/CD sublayer for the following families of
systems: 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s of data rates for baseband and broadband systems. Half-
and full-duplex operation modes are supported. The collision detection access method is
applied only to the half-duplex operation mode. The MAC control frame sublayer is
supported.
The MAC sublayer performs the following functions associated with a data link control
procedure:
● Data encapsulation (transmit and receive)
– Framing (frame boundary delimitation, frame synchronization)
– Addressing (handling of source and destination addresses)
– Error detection
● Media access management
– Medium allocation (collision avoidance)
– Contention resolution (collision handling)
Basically there are two operating modes of the MAC sublayer:
● Half-duplex mode: the stations contend for the use of the physical medium, using the
CSMA/CD algorithms.
● Full duplex mode: simultaneous transmission and reception without contention
resolution (CSMA/CD algorithm are unnecessary) when all the following conditions are
met:
– physical medium capability to support simultaneous transmission and reception
– exactly 2 stations connected to the LAN
– both stations configured for full-duplex operation

27.5.1 MAC 802.3 frame format

The MAC block implements the MAC sublayer and the optional MAC control sublayer
(10/100 Mbit/s) as specified by the IEEE 802.3-2002 standard.
Two frame formats are specified for data communication systems using the CSMA/CD MAC:
● Basic MAC frame format
● Tagged MAC frame format (extension of the basic MAC frame format)

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 849/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

Figure 294 and Figure 295 describe the frame structure (untagged and tagged) that
includes the following fields:
● Preamble: 7-byte field used for synchronization purposes (PLS circuitry)
Hexadecimal value: 55-55-55-55-55-55-55
Bit pattern: 01010101 01010101 01010101 01010101 01010101 01010101 01010101
(right-to-left bit transmission)
● Start frame delimiter (SFD): 1-byte field used to indicate the start of a frame.
Hexadecimal value: D5
Bit pattern: 11010101 (right-to-left bit transmission)
● Destination and Source Address fields: 6-byte fields to indicate the destination and
source station addresses as follows (see Figure 293):
– Each address is 48 bits in length
– The first LSB bit (I/G) in the destination address field is used to indicate an
individual (I/G = 0) or a group address (I/G = 1). A group address could identify
none, one or more, or all the stations connected to the LAN. In the source address
the first bit is reserved and reset to 0.
– The second bit (U/L) distinguishes between locally (U/L = 1) or globally (U/L = 0)
administered addresses. For broadcast addresses this bit is also 1.
– Each byte of each address field must be transmitted least significant bit first.
The address designation is based on the following types:
● Individual address: this is the physical address associated with a particular station on
the network.
● Group address. A multidestination address associated with one or more stations on a
given network. There are two kinds of multicast address:
– Multicast-group address: an address associated with a group of logically related
stations.
– Broadcast address: a distinguished, predefined multicast address (all 1’s in the
destination address field) that always denotes all the stations on a given LAN.

● QTag Prefix: 4-byte field inserted between the Source address field and the MAC Client
Length/Type field. This field is an extension of the basic frame (untagged) to obtain the
tagged MAC frame. The untagged MAC frames do not include this field. The extensions
for tagging are as follows:
– 2-byte constant Length/Type field value consistent with the Type interpretation
(greater than 0x0600) equal to the value of the 802.1Q Tag Protocol Type (0x8100

850/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

hexadecimal). This constant field is used to distinguish tagged and untagged MAC
frames.
– 2-byte field containing the Tag control information field subdivided as follows: a 3-
bit user priority, a canonical format indicator (CFI) bit and a 12-bit VLAN Identifier.
The length of the tagged MAC frame is extended by 4 bytes by the QTag Prefix.
● MAC client length/type: 2-byte field with different meaning (mutually exclusive),
depending on its value:
– If the value is less than or equal to maxValidFrame (0d1500) then this field
indicates the number of MAC client data bytes contained in the subsequent data
field of the 802.3 frame (length interpretation).
– If the value is greater than or equal to MinTypeValue (0d1536 decimal, 0x0600)
then this field indicates the nature of the MAC client protocol (Type interpretation)
related to the Ethernet frame.
Regardless of the interpretation of the length/type field, if the length of the data field is
less than the minimum required for proper operation of the protocol, a PAD field is
added after the data field but prior to the FCS (frame check sequence) field. The
length/type field is transmitted and received with the higher-order byte first.
For length/type field values in the range between maxValidLength and minTypeValue
(boundaries excluded), the behavior of the MAC sublayer is not specified: they may or
may not be passed by the MAC sublayer.
● Data and PAD fields: n-byte data field. Full data transparency is provided, it means that
any arbitrary sequence of byte values may appear in the data field. The size of the PAD,
if any, is determined by the size of the data field. Max and min length of the data and
PAD field are:
– Maximum length = 1500 bytes
– Minimum length for untagged MAC frames = 46 bytes
– Minimum length for tagged MAC frames = 42 bytes
When the data field length is less than the minimum required, the PAD field is added to
match the minimum length (42 bytes for tagged frames, 46 bytes for untagged frames).
● Frame check sequence: 4-byte field that contains the cyclic redundancy check (CRC)
value. The CRC computation is based on the following fields: source address,
destination address, QTag prefix, length/type, LLC data and PAD (that is, all fields
except the preamble, SFD). The generating polynomial is the following:
32 26 23 22 16 12 11 10 8 7 5 4 2
G x = x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x+1

The CRC value of a frame is computed as follows:

● The first 2 bits of the frame are complemented
● The n-bits of the frame are the coefficients of a polynomial M(x) of degree (n – 1). The
first bit of the destination address corresponds to the xn – 1 term and the last bit of the
data field corresponds to the x0 term
● M(x) is multiplied by x32 and divided by G(x), producing a remainder R(x) of degree
 31
● The coefficients of R(x) are considered as a 32-bit sequence
● The bit sequence is complemented and the result is the CRC
● The 32-bits of the CRC value are placed in the frame check sequence. The x32 term is
the first transmitted, the x0 term is the last one

An invalid MAC frame is defined by one of the following conditions:
● The frame length is inconsistent with the expected value as specified by the length/type
field. If the length/type field contains a type value, then the frame length is assumed to
be consistent with this field (no invalid frame)
● The frame length is not an integer number of bytes (extra bits)

27.5.2 MAC frame transmission

The DMA controls all transactions for the transmit path. Ethernet frames read from the
system memory are pushed into the FIFO by the DMA. The frames are then popped out and
transferred to the MAC core. When the end-of-frame is transferred, the status of the
transmission is taken from the MAC core and transferred back to the DMA. The Transmit
FIFO has a depth of 2 Kbyte. FIFO-fill level is indicated to the DMA so that it can initiate a
data fetch in required bursts from the system memory, using the AHB interface. The data
from the AHB Master interface is pushed into the FIFO.
When the SOF is detected, the MAC accepts the data and begins transmitting to the MII.
The time required to transmit the frame data to the MII after the application initiates
transmission is variable, depending on delay factors like IFG delay, time to transmit
preamble/SFD, and any back-off delays for Half-duplex mode. After the EOF is transferred to
the MAC core, the core completes normal transmission and then gives the status of
transmission back to the DMA. If a normal collision (in Half-duplex mode) occurs during
transmission, the MAC core makes the transmit status valid, then accepts and drops all
further data until the next SOF is received. The same frame should be retransmitted from
SOF on observing a Retry request (in the Status) from the MAC. The MAC issues an
underflow status if the data are not provided continuously during the transmission. During
the normal transfer of a frame, if the MAC receives an SOF without getting an EOF for the
previous frame, then the SOF is ignored and the new frame is considered as the
continuation of the previous frame.
There are two modes of operation for popping data towards the MAC core:
● In Threshold mode, as soon as the number of bytes in the FIFO crosses the configured
threshold level (or when the end-of-frame is written before the threshold is crossed),
the data is ready to be popped out and forwarded to the MAC core. The threshold level
is configured using the TTC bits of ETH_DMABMR.
● In Store-and-forward mode, only after a complete frame is stored in the FIFO, the frame
is popped towards the MAC core. If the Tx FIFO size is smaller than the Ethernet frame
to be transmitted, then the frame is popped towards the MAC core when the Tx FIFO
becomes almost full.
The application can flush the Transmit FIFO of all contents by setting the FTF
(ETH_DMAOMR register [20]) bit. This bit is self-clearing and initializes the FIFO pointers to
the default state. If the FTF bit is set during a frame transfer to the MAC core, then transfer is
stopped as the FIFO is considered to be empty. Hence an underflow event occurs at the
MAC transmitter and the corresponding Status word is forwarded to the DMA.

Automatic CRC and pad generation

When the number of bytes received from the application falls below 60 (DA+SA+LT+Data),
zeros are appended to the transmitting frame to make the data length exactly 46 bytes to
meet the minimum data field requirement of IEEE 802.3. The MAC can be programmed not
to append any padding. The cyclic redundancy check (CRC) for the frame check sequence
(FCS) field is calculated and appended to the data being transmitted. When the MAC is
programmed to not append the CRC value to the end of Ethernet frames, the computed
CRC is not transmitted. An exception to this rule is that when the MAC is programmed to
append pads for frames (DA+SA+LT+Data) less than 60 bytes, CRC will be appended at the
end of the padded frames.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 853/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

The CRC generator calculates the 32-bit CRC for the FCS field of the Ethernet frame. The
encoding is defined by the following polynomial.
32 26 23 22 16 12 11 10 8 7 5 4 2
G x = x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x+1

Transmit protocol
The MAC controls the operation of Ethernet frame transmission. It performs the following
functions to meet the IEEE 802.3/802.3z specifications. It:
● generates the preamble and SFD
● generates the jam pattern in Half-duplex mode
● controls the Jabber timeout
● controls the flow for Half-duplex mode (back pressure)
● generates the transmit frame status
● contains time stamp snapshot logic in accordance with IEEE 1588
When a new frame transmission is requested, the MAC sends out the preamble and SFD,
followed by the data. The preamble is defined as 7 bytes of 0b10101010 pattern, and the
SFD is defined as 1 byte of 0b10101011 pattern. The collision window is defined as 1 slot
time (512 bit times for 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet). The jam pattern generation is applicable only
to Half-duplex mode, not to Full-duplex mode.
In MII mode, if a collision occurs at any time from the beginning of the frame to the end of
the CRC field, the MAC sends a 32-bit jam pattern of 0x5555 5555 on the MII to inform all
other stations that a collision has occurred. If the collision is seen during the preamble
transmission phase, the MAC completes the transmission of the preamble and SFD and
then sends the jam pattern.
A jabber timer is maintained to cut off the transmission of Ethernet frames if more than 2048
(default) bytes have to be transferred. The MAC uses the deferral mechanism for flow
control (back pressure) in Half-duplex mode. When the application requests to stop
receiving frames, the MAC sends a JAM pattern of 32 bytes whenever it senses the
reception of a frame, provided that transmit flow control is enabled. This results in a collision
and the remote station backs off. The application requests flow control by setting the BPA bit
(bit 0) in the ETH_MACFCR register. If the application requests a frame to be transmitted,
then it is scheduled and transmitted even when back pressure is activated. Note that if back
pressure is kept activated for a long time (and more than 16 consecutive collision events
occur) then the remote stations abort their transmissions due to excessive collisions. If IEEE
1588 time stamping is enabled for the transmit frame, this block takes a snapshot of the
system time when the SFD is put onto the transmit MII bus.

Transmit scheduler
The MAC is responsible for scheduling the frame transmission on the MII. It maintains the
interframe gap between two transmitted frames and follows the truncated binary exponential
backoff algorithm for Half-duplex mode. The MAC enables transmission after satisfying the
IFG and backoff delays. It maintains an idle period of the configured interframe gap (IFG bits
in the ETH_MACCR register) between any two transmitted frames. If frames to be
transmitted arrive sooner than the configured IFG time, the MII waits for the enable signal
from the MAC before starting the transmission on it. The MAC starts its IFG counter as soon
as the carrier signal of the MII goes inactive. At the end of the programmed IFG value, the
MAC enables transmission in Full-duplex mode. In Half-duplex mode and when IFG is

854/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

configured for 96 bit times, the MAC follows the rule of deference specified in Section
4.2.3.2.1 of the IEEE 802.3 specification. The MAC resets its IFG counter if a carrier is
detected during the first two-thirds (64-bit times for all IFG values) of the IFG interval. If the
carrier is detected during the final one third of the IFG interval, the MAC continues the IFG
count and enables the transmitter after the IFG interval. The MAC implements the truncated
binary exponential backoff algorithm when it operates in Half-duplex mode.

Transmit flow control

When the Transmit Flow Control Enable bit (TFE bit in ETH_MACFCR) is set, the MAC
generates Pause frames and transmits them as necessary, in Full-duplex mode. The Pause
frame is appended with the calculated CRC, and is sent. Pause frame generation can be
initiated in two ways.
A pause frame is sent either when the application sets the FCB bit in the ETH_MACFCR
register or when the receive FIFO is full (packet buffer).
● If the application has requested flow control by setting the FCB bit in ETH_MACFCR,
the MAC generates and transmits a single Pause frame. The value of the pause time in
the generated frame contains the programmed pause time value in ETH_MACFCR. To
extend the pause or end the pause prior to the time specified in the previously
transmitted Pause frame, the application must request another Pause frame
transmission after programming the Pause Time value (PT in ETH_MACFCR register)
with the appropriate value.
● If the application has requested flow control when the receive FIFO is full, the MAC
generates and transmits a Pause frame. The value of the pause time in the generated
frame is the programmed pause time value in ETH_MACFCR. If the receive FIFO
remains full at a configurable number of slot-times (PLT bits in ETH_MACFCR) before
this Pause time runs out, a second Pause frame is transmitted. The process is
repeated as long as the receive FIFO remains full. If this condition is no more satisfied
prior to the sampling time, the MAC transmits a Pause frame with zero pause time to
indicate to the remote end that the receive buffer is ready to receive new data frames.
Single-packet transmit operation
The general sequence of events for a transmit operation is as follows:
1. If the system has data to be transferred, the DMA controller fetches them from the
memory through the AHB Master interface and starts forwarding them to the FIFO. It
continues to receive the data until the end of frame is transferred.
2. When the threshold level is crossed or a full packet of data is received into the FIFO,
the frame data are popped and driven to the MAC core. The DMA continues to transfer
data from the FIFO until a complete packet has been transferred to the MAC. Upon
completion of the frame, the DMA controller is notified by the status coming from the
MAC.
Transmit operation—Two packets in the buffer
1. Because the DMA must update the descriptor status before releasing it to the Host,
there can be at the most two frames inside a transmit FIFO. The second frame is
fetched by the DMA and put into the FIFO only if the OSF (operate on second frame) bit
is set. If this bit is not set, the next frame is fetched from the memory only after the MAC
has completely processed the frame and the DMA has released the descriptors.
2. If the OSF bit is set, the DMA starts fetching the second frame immediately after
completing the transfer of the first frame to the FIFO. It does not wait for the status to be
updated. In the meantime, the second frame is received into the FIFO while the first

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 855/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

frame is being transmitted. As soon as the first frame has been transferred and the
status is received from the MAC, it is pushed to the DMA. If the DMA has already
completed sending the second packet to the FIFO, the second transmission must wait
for the status of the first packet before proceeding to the next frame.

Retransmission during collision

While a frame is being transferred to the MAC, a collision event may occur on the MAC line
interface in Half-duplex mode. The MAC would then indicate a retry attempt by giving the
status even before the end of frame is received. Then the retransmission is enabled and the
frame is popped out again from the FIFO. After more than 96 bytes have been popped
towards the MAC core, the FIFO controller frees up that space and makes it available to the
DMA to push in more data. This means that the retransmission is not possible after this
threshold is crossed or when the MAC core indicates a late collision event.

Transmit FIFO flush operation

The MAC provides a control to the software to flush the Transmit FIFO through the use of Bit
20 in the Operation mode register. The Flush operation is immediate and the Tx FIFO and
the corresponding pointers are cleared to the initial state even if the Tx FIFO is in the middle
of transferring a frame to the MAC Core. This results in an underflow event in the MAC
Transmitter, and the frame transmission is aborted. The status of such a frame is marked
with both underflow and frame flush events (TDES0 bits 13 and 1). No data are coming to
the FIFO from the application (DMA) during the Flush operation. Transfer transmit status
words are transferred to the application for the number of frames that is flushed (including
partial frames). Frames that are completely flushed have the Frame flush status bit (TDES0
13) set. The Flush operation is completed when the application (DMA) has accepted all of
the Status words for the frames that were flushed. The Transmit FIFO Flush control register
bit is then cleared. At this point, new frames from the application (DMA) are accepted. All
data presented for transmission after a Flush operation are discarded unless they start with
an SOF marker.

Transmit status word

At the end of the Ethernet frame transfer to the MAC core and after the core has completed
the transmission of the frame, the transmit status is given to the application. The detailed
description of the Transmit Status is the same as for bits [23:0] in TDES0. If IEEE 1588 time
stamping is enabled, a specific frames’ 64-bit time stamp is returned, along with the transmit
status.

Transmit checksum offload

Communication protocols such as TCP and UDP implement checksum fields, which helps
determine the integrity of data transmitted over a network. Because the most widespread
use of Ethernet is to encapsulate TCP and UDP over IP datagrams, the Ethernet controller
has a transmit checksum offload feature that supports checksum calculation and insertion in
the transmit path, and error detection in the receive path. This section explains the operation
of the checksum offload feature for transmitted frames.
Note: 1 The checksum for TCP, UDP or ICMP is calculated over a complete frame, then inserted into
its corresponding header field. Due to this requirement, this function is enabled only when
the Transmit FIFO is configured for Store-and-forward mode (that is, when the TSF bit is set
in the ETH_ETH_DMAOMR register). If the core is configured for Threshold (cut-through)
mode, the Transmit checksum offload is bypassed.

856/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

2 You must make sure the Transmit FIFO is deep enough to store a complete frame before
that frame is transferred to the MAC Core transmitter. If the FIFO depth is less than the input
Ethernet frame size, the payload (TCP/UDP/ICMP) checksum insertion function is bypassed
and only the frame’s IPv4 Header checksum is modified, even in Store-and-forward mode.
The transmit checksum offload supports two types of checksum calculation and insertion.
This checksum can be controlled for each frame by setting the CIC bits (Bits 28:27 in
TDES1, described in TDES1: Transmit descriptor Word1 on page 889).
See IETF specifications RFC 791, RFC 793, RFC 768, RFC 792, RFC 2460 and RFC 4443
for IPv4, TCP, UDP, ICMP, IPv6 and ICMPv6 packet header specifications, respectively.
● IP header checksum
In IPv4 datagrams, the integrity of the header fields is indicated by the 16-bit header
checksum field (the eleventh and twelfth bytes of the IPv4 datagram). The checksum
offload detects an IPv4 datagram when the Ethernet frame’s Type field has the value
0x0800 and the IP datagram’s Version field has the value 0x4. The input frame’s
checksum field is ignored during calculation and replaced by the calculated value. IPv6
headers do not have a checksum field; thus, the checksum offload does not modify
IPv6 header fields. The result of this IP header checksum calculation is indicated by the
IP Header Error status bit in the Transmit status (Bit 16). This status bit is set whenever
the values of the Ethernet Type field and the IP header’s Version field are not
consistent, or when the Ethernet frame does not have enough data, as indicated by the
IP header Length field. In other words, this bit is set when an IP header error is
asserted under the following circumstances:
a) For IPv4 datagrams:
– The received Ethernet type is 0x0800, but the IP header’s Version field does not
equal 0x4
– The IPv4 Header Length field indicates a value less than 0x5 (20 bytes)
– The total frame length is less than the value given in the IPv4 Header Length field
b) For IPv6 datagrams:
– The Ethernet type is 0x86DD but the IP header Version field does not equal 0x6
– The frame ends before the IPv6 header (40 bytes) or extension header (as given
in the corresponding Header Length field in an extension header) has been
completely received. Even when the checksum offload detects such an IP header
error, it inserts an IPv4 header checksum if the Ethernet Type field indicates an
IPv4 payload.
● TCP/UDP/ICMP checksum
The TCP/UDP/ICMP checksum processes the IPv4 or IPv6 header (including
extension headers) and determines whether the encapsulated payload is TCP, UDP or
ICMP.
Note that:
a) For non-TCP, -UDP, or -ICMP/ICMPv6 payloads, this checksum is bypassed and
nothing further is modified in the frame.
b) Fragmented IP frames (IPv4 or IPv6), IP frames with security features (such as an
authentication header or encapsulated security payload), and IPv6 frames with
routing headers are bypassed and not processed by the checksum.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 857/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

The checksum is calculated for the TCP, UDP, or ICMP payload and inserted into its
corresponding field in the header. It can work in the following two modes:
– In the first mode, the TCP, UDP, or ICMPv6 pseudo-header is not included in the
checksum calculation and is assumed to be present in the input frame’s checksum
field. The checksum field is included in the checksum calculation, and then
replaced by the final calculated checksum.
– In the second mode, the checksum field is ignored, the TCP, UDP, or ICMPv6
pseudo-header data are included into the checksum calculation, and the
checksum field is overwritten with the final calculated value.
Note that: for ICMP-over-IPv4 packets, the checksum field in the ICMP packet must
always be 0x0000 in both modes, because pseudo-headers are not defined for such
packets. If it does not equal 0x0000, an incorrect checksum may be inserted into the
packet.
The result of this operation is indicated by the payload checksum error status bit in the
Transmit Status vector (bit 12). The payload checksum error status bit is set when
either of the following is detected:
– the frame has been forwarded to the MAC Transmitter in Store-and-forward mode
without the end of frame being written to the FIFO
– the packet ends before the number of bytes indicated by the payload length field in
the IP header is received.
When the packet is longer than the indicated payload length, the bytes are ignored as
stuff bytes, and no error is reported. When the first type of error is detected, the TCP,
UDP or ICMP header is not modified. For the second error type, still, the calculated
checksum is inserted into the corresponding header field.

MII/RMII transmit bit order

Each nibble from the MII is transmitted on the RMII a dibit at a time with the order of dibit
transmission shown in Figure 296. Lower order bits (D1 and D0) are transmitted first
followed by higher order bits (D2 and D3).

27.5.3 MAC frame reception

The MAC received frames are pushes into the Rx FIFO. The status (fill level) of this FIFO is
indicated to the DMA once it crosses the configured receive threshold (RTC in the
ETH_DMAOMR register) so that the DMA can initiate pre-configured burst transfers towards
the AHB interface.
In the default Cut-through mode, when 64 bytes (configured with the RTC bits in the
ETH_DMAOMR register) or a full packet of data are received into the FIFO, the data are
popped out and the DMA is notified of its availability. Once the DMA has initiated the transfer
to the AHB interface, the data transfer continues from the FIFO until a complete packet has
been transferred. Upon completion of the EOF frame transfer, the status word is popped out
and sent to the DMA controller.
In Rx FIFO Store-and-forward mode (configured by the RSF bit in the ETH_DMAOMR
register), a frame is read out only after being written completely into the Receive FIFO. In
this mode, all error frames are dropped (if the core is configured to do so) such that only
valid frames are read out and forwarded to the application. In Cut-through mode, some error
frames are not dropped, because the error status is received at the end of the frame, by
which time the start of that frame has already been read out of the FIFO.
A receive operation is initiated when the MAC detects an SFD on the MII. The core strips the
preamble and SFD before proceeding to process the frame. The header fields are checked
for the filtering and the FCS field used to verify the CRC for the frame. The frame is dropped
in the core if it fails the address filter.

Receive protocol
The received frame preamble and SFD are stripped. Once the SFD has been detected, the
MAC starts sending the Ethernet frame data to the receive FIFO, beginning with the first
byte following the SFD (destination address). If IEEE 1588 time stamping is enabled, a
snapshot of the system time is taken when any frame's SFD is detected on the MII. Unless
the MAC filters out and drops the frame, this time stamp is passed on to the application.

860/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

If the received frame length/type field is less than 0x600 and if the MAC is programmed for
the auto CRC/pad stripping option, the MAC sends the data of the frame to RxFIFO up to
the count specified in the length/type field, then starts dropping bytes (including the FCS
field). If the Length/Type field is greater than or equal to 0x600, the MAC sends all received
Ethernet frame data to Rx FIFO, regardless of the value on the programmed auto-CRC strip
option. The MAC watchdog timer is enabled by default, that is, frames above 2048 bytes (DA
+ SA + LT + Data + pad + FCS) are cut off. This feature can be disabled by programming the
watchdog disable (WD) bit in the MAC configuration register. However, even if the watchdog
timer is disabled, frames greater than 16 KB in size are cut off and a watchdog timeout
status is given.

Receive CRC: automatic CRC and pad stripping

The MAC checks for any CRC error in the receiving frame. It calculates the 32-bit CRC for
the received frame that includes the Destination address field through the FCS field. The
encoding is defined by the following polynomial.

32 26 23 22 16 12 11 10 8 7 5 4 2
G x = x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x +x+1

Regardless of the auto-pad/CRC strip, the MAC receives the entire frame to compute the
CRC check for the received frame.

Receive checksum offload

Both IPv4 and IPv6 frames in the received Ethernet frames are detected and processed for
data integrity. You can enable the receive checksum offload by setting the IPCO bit in the
ETH_MACCR register. The MAC receiver identifies IPv4 or IPv6 frames by checking for
value 0x0800 or 0x86DD, respectively, in the received Ethernet frame Type field. This
identification applies to VLAN-tagged frames as well. The receive checksum offload
calculates IPv4 header checksums and checks that they match the received IPv4 header
checksums. The IP Header Error bit is set for any mismatch between the indicated payload
type (Ethernet Type field) and the IP header version, or when the received frame does not
have enough bytes, as indicated by the IPv4 header’s Length field (or when fewer than 20
bytes are available in an IPv4 or IPv6 header). The receive checksum offload also identifies
a TCP, UDP or ICMP payload in the received IP datagrams (IPv4 or IPv6) and calculates the
checksum of such payloads properly, as defined in the TCP, UDP or ICMP specifications. It
includes the TCP/UDP/ICMPv6 pseudo-header bytes for checksum calculation and checks
whether the received checksum field matches the calculated value. The result of this
operation is given as a Payload Checksum Error bit in the receive status word. This status
bit is also set if the length of the TCP, UDP or ICMP payload does not match the expected
payload length given in the IP header. As mentioned in TCP/UDP/ICMP checksum on
page 857, the receive checksum offload bypasses the payload of fragmented IP datagrams,
IP datagrams with security features, IPv6 routing headers, and payloads other than TCP,
UDP or ICMP. This information (whether the checksum is bypassed or not) is given in the
receive status, as described in the RDES0: Receive descriptor Word0 section. In this
configuration, the core does not append any payload checksum bytes to the received
Ethernet frames.
As mentioned in RDES0: Receive descriptor Word0 on page 898, the meaning of certain
register bits changes as shown in Table 193.

Receive frame controller

If the RA bit is reset in the MAC CSR frame filter register, the MAC performs frame filtering
based on the destination/source address (the application still needs to perform another level
of filtering if it decides not to receive any bad frames like runt, CRC error frames, etc.). On
detecting a filter-fail, the frame is dropped and not transferred to the application. When the
filtering parameters are changed dynamically, and in case of (DA-SA) filter-fail, the rest of
the frame is dropped and the Rx Status Word is immediately updated (with zero frame
length, CRC error and Runt Error bits set), indicating the filter fail. In Ethernet power down
mode, all received frames are dropped, and are not forwarded to the application.

Receive flow control

The MAC detects the receiving Pause frame and pauses the frame transmission for the
delay specified within the received Pause frame (only in Full-duplex mode). The Pause
frame detection function can be enabled or disabled with the RFCE bit in ETH_MACFCR.
Once receive flow control has been enabled, the received frame destination address begins
to be monitored for any match with the multicast address of the control frame
(0x0180 C200 0001). If a match is detected (the destination address of the received frame
matches the reserved control frame destination address), the MAC then decides whether or
not to transfer the received control frame to the application, based on the level of the PCF bit
in ETH_MACFFR.
The MAC also decodes the type, opcode, and Pause Timer fields of the receiving control
frame. If the byte count of the status indicates 64 bytes, and if there is no CRC error, the
MAC transmitter pauses the transmission of any data frame for the duration of the decoded
Pause time value, multiplied by the slot time (64 byte times for both 10/100 Mbit/s modes).

862/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

Meanwhile, if another Pause frame is detected with a zero Pause time value, the MAC
resets the Pause time and manages this new pause request.
If the received control frame matches neither the type field (0x8808), the opcode (0x00001),
nor the byte length (64 bytes), or if there is a CRC error, the MAC does not generate a
Pause.
In the case of a pause frame with a multicast destination address, the MAC filters the frame
based on the address match.
For a pause frame with a unicast destination address, the MAC filtering depends on whether
the DA matched the contents of the MAC address 0 register and whether the UPDF bit in
ETH_MACFCR is set (detecting a pause frame even with a unicast destination address).
The PCF register bits (bits [7:6] in ETH_MACFFR) control filtering for control frames in
addition to address filtering.

Receive operation multiframe handling

Since the status is available immediately following the data, the FIFO is capable of storing
any number of frames into it, as long as it is not full.

Error handling
If the Rx FIFO is full before it receives the EOF data from the MAC, an overflow is declared
and the whole frame is dropped, and the overflow counter in the (ETH_DMAMFBOCR
register) is incremented. The status indicates a partial frame due to overflow. The Rx FIFO
can filter error and undersized frames, if enabled (using the FEF and FUGF bits in
ETH_DMAOMR).
If the Receive FIFO is configured to operate in Store-and-forward mode, all error frames can
be filtered and dropped.
In Cut-through mode, if a frame's status and length are available when that frame's SOF is
read from the Rx FIFO, then the complete erroneous frame can be dropped. The DMA can
flush the error frame being read from the FIFO, by enabling the receive frame flash bit. The
data transfer to the application (DMA) is then stopped and the rest of the frame is internally
read and dropped. The next frame transfer can then be started, if available.

Receive status word

At the end of the Ethernet frame reception, the MAC outputs the receive status to the
application (DMA). The detailed description of the receive status is the same as for
bits[31:0] in RDES0, given in RDES0: Receive descriptor Word0 on page 898.

Frame length interface

In case of switch applications, data transmission and reception between the application and
MAC happen as complete frame transfers. The application layer should be aware of the
length of the frames received from the ingress port in order to transfer the frame to the
egress port. The MAC core provides the frame length of each received frame inside the
status at the end of each frame reception.
Note: A frame length value of 0 is given for partial frames written into the Rx FIFO due to overflow.

MII/RMII receive bit order

Each nibble is transmitted to the MII from the dibit received from the RMII in the nibble
transmission order shown in Figure 300. The lower-order bits (D0 and D1) are received first,
followed by the higher-order bits (D2 and D3).

27.5.4 MAC interrupts

Interrupts can be generated from the MAC core as a result of various events.
The ETH_MACSR register describes the events that can cause an interrupt from the MAC
core. You can prevent each event from asserting the interrupt by setting the corresponding
mask bits in the Interrupt Mask register.
The interrupt register bits only indicate the block from which the event is reported. You have
to read the corresponding status registers and other registers to clear the interrupt. For
example, bit 3 of the Interrupt register, set high, indicates that the Magic packet or Wake-on-
LAN frame is received in Power-down mode. You must read the ETH_MACPMTCSR
Register to clear this interrupt event.

27.5.5 MAC filtering

Address filtering
Address filtering checks the destination and source addresses on all received frames and
the address filtering status is reported accordingly. Address checking is based on different
parameters (Frame filter register) chosen by the application. The filtered frame can also be
identified: multicast or broadcast frame.
Address filtering uses the station's physical (MAC) address and the Multicast Hash table for
address checking purposes.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 865/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

Unicast destination address filter

The MAC supports up to 4 MAC addresses for unicast perfect filtering. If perfect filtering is
selected (HU bit in the Frame filter register is reset), the MAC compares all 48 bits of the
received unicast address with the programmed MAC address for any match. Default
MacAddr0 is always enabled, other addresses MacAddr1–MacAddr3 are selected with an
individual enable bit. Each byte of these other addresses (MacAddr1–MacAddr3) can be
masked during comparison with the corresponding received DA byte by setting the
corresponding Mask Byte Control bit in the register. This helps group address filtering for the
DA. In Hash filtering mode (when HU bit is set), the MAC performs imperfect filtering for
unicast addresses using a 64-bit Hash table. For hash filtering, the MAC uses the 6 upper
CRC bits of the received destination address to index the content of the Hash table. A value
of 000000 selects bit 0 in the selected register, and a value of 111111 selects bit 63 in the
Hash Table register. If the corresponding bit (indicated by the 6-bit CRC) is set to 1, the
unicast frame is said to have passed the Hash filter; otherwise, the frame has failed the
Hash filter.

Multicast destination address filter

The MAC can be programmed to pass all multicast frames by setting the PAM bit in the
Frame filter register. If the PAM bit is reset, the MAC performs the filtering for multicast
addresses based on the HM bit in the Frame filter register. In Perfect filtering mode, the
multicast address is compared with the programmed MAC destination address registers (1–
3). Group address filtering is also supported. In Hash filtering mode, the MAC performs
imperfect filtering using a 64-bit Hash table. For hash filtering, the MAC uses the 6 upper
CRC bits of the received multicast address to index the content of the Hash table. A value of
000000 selects bit 0 in the selected register and a value of 111111 selects bit 63 in the Hash
Table register. If the corresponding bit is set to 1, then the multicast frame is said to have
passed the Hash filter; otherwise, the frame has failed the Hash filter.

Hash or perfect address filter

The DA filter can be configured to pass a frame when its DA matches either the Hash filter
or the Perfect filter by setting the HPF bit in the Frame filter register and setting the
corresponding HU or HM bits. This configuration applies to both unicast and multicast
frames. If the HPF bit is reset, only one of the filters (Hash or Perfect) is applied to the
received frame.

Broadcast address filter

The MAC does not filter any broadcast frames in the default mode. However, if the MAC is
programmed to reject all broadcast frames by setting the BFD bit in the Frame filter register,
any broadcast frames are dropped.

Unicast source address filter

The MAC can also perform perfect filtering based on the source address field of the received
frames. By default, the MAC compares the SA field with the values programmed in the SA
registers. The MAC address registers [1:3] can be configured to contain SA instead of DA
for comparison, by setting bit 30 in the corresponding register. Group filtering with SA is also
supported. The frames that fail the SA filter are dropped by the MAC if the SAF bit in the
Frame filter register is set. Otherwise, the result of the SA filter is given as a status bit in the
Receive Status word (see RDES0: Receive descriptor Word0).

866/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

When the SAF bit is set, the result of the SA and DA filters is AND’ed to decide whether the
frame needs to be forwarded. This means that either of the filter fail result will drop the
frame. Both filters have to pass the frame for the frame to be forwarded to the application.

Inverse filtering operation

For both destination and source address filtering, there is an option to invert the filter-match
result at the final output. These are controlled by the DAIF and SAIF bits in the Frame filter
register, respectively. The DAIF bit is applicable for both Unicast and Multicast DA frames.
The result of the unicast/multicast destination address filter is inverted in this mode.
Similarly, when the SAIF bit is set, the result of the unicast SA filter is inverted. Table 194
and Table 195 summarize destination and source address filtering based on the type of
frame received.

27.5.6 MAC loopback mode

The MAC supports loopback of transmitted frames onto its receiver. By default, the MAC
loopback function is disabled, but this feature can be enabled by programming the Loopback
bit in the MAC ETH_MACCR register.

27.5.7 MAC management counters: MMC

The MAC management counters (MMC) maintain a set of registers for gathering statistics
on the received and transmitted frames. These include a control register for controlling the
behavior of the registers, two 32-bit registers containing generated interrupts (receive and
transmit), and two 32-bit registers containing masks for the Interrupt register (receive and
transmit). These registers are accessible from the application. Each register is 32 bits wide.
Section 27.8: Ethernet register descriptions describes the various counters and lists the
addresses of each of the statistics counters. This address is used for read/write accesses to
the desired transmit/receive counter.
The Receive MMC counters are updated for frames that pass address filtering. Dropped
frames statistics are not updated unless the dropped frames are runt frames of less than 6
bytes (DA bytes are not received fully).

Good transmitted and received frames

Transmitted frames are considered “good” if transmitted successfully. In other words, a
transmitted frame is good if the frame transmission is not aborted due to any of the following
errors:
+ Jabber Timeout
+ No Carrier/Loss of Carrier
+ Late Collision
+ Frame Underflow
+ Excessive Deferral
+ Excessive Collision

868/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

Received frames are considered “good” if none of the following errors exists:
+ CRC error
+ Runt Frame (shorter than 64 bytes)
+ Alignment error (in 10/ 100 Mbit/s only)
+ Length error (non-Type frames only)
+ Out of Range (non-Type frames only, longer than maximum size)
+ MII_RXER Input error
The maximum frame size depends on the frame type, as follows:
+ Untagged frame maxsize = 1518
+ VLAN Frame maxsize = 1522

27.5.8 Power management: PMT

This section describes the power management (PMT) mechanisms supported by the MAC.
PMT supports the reception of network (remote) wakeup frames and Magic Packet frames.
PMT generates interrupts for wakeup frames and Magic Packets received by the MAC. The
PMT block is enabled with remote wakeup frame enable and Magic Packet enable. These
enable bits (WFE and MPE) are in the ETH_MACPMTCSR register and are programmed by
the application. When the power down mode is enabled in the PMT, then all received frames
are dropped by the MAC and they are not forwarded to the application. The MAC comes out
of the power down mode only when either a Magic Packet or a Remote wakeup frame is
received and the corresponding detection is enabled.

Remote wakeup frame filter register

There are eight wakeup frame filter registers. To write on each of them, load the wakeup
frame filter register value by value. The wanted values of the wakeup frame filter are loaded
by sequentially loading eight times the wakeup frame filter register. The read operation is
identical to the write operation. To read the eight values, you have to read eight times the
wakeup frame filter register to reach the last register. Each read/write points the wakeup
frame filter register to the next filter register.

● Filter i Byte Mask

This register defines which bytes of the frame are examined by filter i (0, 1, 2, and 3) in
order to determine whether or not the frame is a wakeup frame. The MSB (thirty-first
bit) must be zero. Bit j [30:0] is the Byte Mask. If bit j (byte number) of the Byte Mask is
set, then Filter i Offset + j of the incoming frame is processed by the CRC block;
otherwise Filter i Offset + j is ignored.
● Filter i Command
This 4-bit command controls the filter i operation. Bit 3 specifies the address type,
defining the pattern’s destination address type. When the bit is set, the pattern applies
to only multicast frames. When the bit is reset, the pattern applies only to unicast
frames. Bit 2 and bit 1 are reserved. Bit 0 is the enable bit for filter i; if bit 0 is not set,
filter i is disabled.
● Filter i Offset
This register defines the offset (within the frame) from which the frames are examined
by filter i. This 8-bit pattern offset is the offset for the filter i first byte to be examined.
The minimum allowed is 12, which refers to the 13th byte of the frame (offset value 0
refers to the first byte of the frame).
● Filter i CRC-16
This register contains the CRC_16 value calculated from the pattern, as well as the
byte mask programmed to the wakeup filter register block.

Remote wakeup frame detection

When the MAC is in sleep mode and the remote wakeup bit is enabled in the
ETH_MACPMTCSR register, normal operation is resumed after receiving a remote wakeup
frame. The application writes all eight wakeup filter registers, by performing a sequential
write to the wakeup frame filter register address. The application enables remote wakeup by
writing a 1 to bit 2 in the ETH_MACPMTCSR register. PMT supports four programmable
filters that provide different receive frame patterns. If the incoming frame passes the address
filtering of Filter Command, and if Filter CRC-16 matches the incoming examined pattern,
then the wakeup frame is received. Filter_offset (minimum value 12, which refers to the 13th
byte of the frame) determines the offset from which the frame is to be examined. Filter Byte
Mask determines which bytes of the frame must be examined. The thirty-first bit of Byte
Mask must be set to zero. The wakeup frame is checked only for length error, FCS error,
dribble bit error, MII error, collision, and to ensure that it is not a runt frame. Even if the

870/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

wakeup frame is more than 512 bytes long, if the frame has a valid CRC value, it is
considered valid. Wakeup frame detection is updated in the ETH_MACPMTCSR register for
every remote wakeup frame received. If enabled, a PMT interrupt is generated to indicate
the reception of a remote wakeup frame.

Magic packet detection

The Magic Packet frame is based on a method that uses Advanced Micro Device’s Magic
Packet technology to power up the sleeping device on the network. The MAC receives a
specific packet of information, called a Magic Packet, addressed to the node on the network.
Only Magic Packets that are addressed to the device or a broadcast address are checked to
determine whether they meet the wakeup requirements. Magic Packets that pass address
filtering (unicast or broadcast) are checked to determine whether they meet the remote
Wake-on-LAN data format of 6 bytes of all ones followed by a MAC address appearing 16
times. The application enables Magic Packet wakeup by writing a 1 to bit 1 in the
ETH_MACPMTCSR register. The PMT block constantly monitors each frame addressed to
the node for a specific Magic Packet pattern. Each received frame is checked for a
0xFFFF FFFF FFFF pattern following the destination and source address field. The PMT
block then checks the frame for 16 repetitions of the MAC address without any breaks or
interruptions. In case of a break in the 16 repetitions of the address, the 0xFFFF FFFF FFFF
pattern is scanned for again in the incoming frame. The 16 repetitions can be anywhere in
the frame, but must be preceded by the synchronization stream (0xFFFF FFFF FFFF). The
device also accepts a multicast frame, as long as the 16 duplications of the MAC address
are detected. If the MAC address of a node is 0x0011 2233 4455, then the MAC scans for
the data sequence:
Destination address source address ……………….. FFFF FFFF FFFF
0011 2233 4455 0011 2233 4455 0011 2233 4455 0011 2233 4455
0011 2233 4455 0011 2233 4455 0011 2233 4455 0011 2233 4455

…CRC
Magic Packet detection is updated in the ETH_MACPMTCSR register for received Magic
Packet. If enabled, a PMT interrupt is generated to indicate the reception of a Magic Packet.

System consideration during power-down

The receive data path must be clocked with the Rx CLK clock during Power-down mode,
because it is involved in magic packet/wake-on-LAN frame detection. However, the transmit
path and the application path clocks can be turned off during Power-down mode. Wakeup
happens when a valid wakeup frame is received. The recommended power-down and
wakeup sequences are as follows:
1. Disable the Transmit DMA (if applicable) and wait for any previous frame transmissions
to complete. These transmissions can be detected when Transmit Interrupt
(ETH_DMASR register[0]) is received.
2. Disable the MAC transmitter and MAC receiver by clearing the appropriate bits in the
MAC configuration register.
3. Wait until the Receive DMA empties all the frames from the Rx FIFO.
4. Enable Power-down mode by appropriately configuring the PMT registers.
5. Enable the MAC Receiver and enter Power-down mode.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 871/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

6. Turn-off the application and transmit clock inputs to the core (and other relevant clocks
in the system) to reduce power and enter Sleep mode.
7. On receiving a valid wakeup frame, the Ethernet peripheral exits Power-down mode.
8. On receiving the interrupt, the system must enable the application and transmit clock
inputs to the Ethernet.
9. Read the ETH_MACPMTCSR register to clear the interrupt, then enable the MAC and
resume normal operation.

27.5.9 Precision time protocol (IEEE1588 PTP)

The IEEE 1588 standard defines a protocol that allows precise clock synchronization in
measurement and control systems implemented with technologies such as network
communication, local computing and distributed objects. The protocol applies to systems
that communicate by local area networks supporting multicast messaging, including (but not
limited to) Ethernet. This protocol is used to synchronize heterogeneous systems that
include clocks of varying inherent precision, resolution and stability. The protocol supports
system-wide synchronization accuracy in the submicrosecond range with minimum network
and local clock computing resources. The message-based protocol, known as the precision
time protocol (PTP), is transported over UDP/IP. The system or network is classified into
Master and Slave nodes for distributing the timing/clock information. The protocol’s
technique for synchronizing a slave node to a master node by exchanging PTP messages is
described in Figure 306.

1. The master broadcasts PTP Sync messages to all its nodes. The Sync message
contains the master’s reference time information. The time at which this message
leaves the master’s system is t1. For Ethernet ports, this time has to be captured at the
MII.
2. A slave receives the Sync message and also captures the exact time, t2, using its
timing reference.

872/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

3. The master then sends the slave a Follow_up message, which contains the t1
information for later use.
4. The slave sends the master a Delay_Req message, noting the exact time, t3, at which
this frame leaves the MII.
5. The master receives this message and captures the exact time, t4, at which it enters its
system.
6. The master sends the t4 information to the slave in the Delay_Resp message.
7. The slave uses the four values of t1, t2, t3, and t4 to synchronize its local timing
reference to the master’s timing reference.
Most of the protocol implementation occurs in the software, above the UDP layer. As
described above, however, hardware support is required to capture the exact time when
specific PTP packets enter or leave the Ethernet port at the MII. This timing information has
to be captured and returned to the software for a proper, high-accuracy implementation of
PTP.

Reference timing source

To get a snapshot of the time, the core requires a reference time in 64-bit format (split into
two 32-bit channels, with the upper 32 bits providing time in seconds, and the lower 32 bits
indicating time in nanoseconds) as defined in the IEEE 1588 specification.
The PTP reference clock input is used to internally generate the reference time (also called
the System Time) and to capture time stamps. The frequency of this reference clock must
be greater than or equal to the resolution of time stamp counter. The synchronization
accuracy target between the master node and the slaves is around 100 ns.
The generation, update and modification of the System Time are described in the Section :
System Time correction methods.
The accuracy depends on the PTP reference clock input period, the characteristics of the
oscillator (drift) and the frequency of the synchronization procedure.
Due to the synchronization from the Tx and Rx clock input domain to the PTP reference
clock domain, the uncertainty on the time stamp latched value is 1 reference clock period. If
we add the uncertainty due to resolution, we will add half the period for time stamping.

Transmission of frames with the PTP feature

When a frame’s SFD is output on the MII, a time stamp is captured. Frames for which time
stamp capture is required are controllable on a per-frame basis. In other words, each
transmitted frame can be marked to indicate whether a time stamp must be captured or not
for that frame. The transmitted frames are not processed to identify PTP frames. Frame
control is exercised through the control bits in the transmit descriptor (as described in
Figure 314: Transmit descriptor field format with IEEE1588 time stamp enabled on
page 891). Captured time stamps are returned to the application in the same way as the
status is provided for frames. The time stamp is sent back along with the Transmit status of
the frame, inside the corresponding transmit descriptor, thus connecting the time stamp
automatically to the specific PTP frame. The 64-bit time stamp information is written back to
the TDES2 and TDES3 fields, with TDES2 holding the time stamp’s 32 least significant bits
as described in Tx DMA descriptor format with IEEE1588 time stamp on page 891.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 873/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

Reception of frames with the PTP feature

When the IEEE 1588 time stamping feature is enabled, the Ethernet MAC captures the time
stamp of all frames received on the MII. The received frames are not processed to identify
PTP frames. The MAC provides the time stamp as soon as the frame reception is complete.
Captured time stamps are returned to the application in the same way as the frame status is
provided. The time stamp is sent back along with the Receive status of the frame, inside the
corresponding receive descriptor. The 64-bit time stamp information is written back to the
RDES2 and RDES3 fields, with RDES2 holding the time stamp’s 32 least significant bits as
described in Rx DMA descriptors format with IEEE1588 time stamp on page 903.

System Time correction methods

The 64-bit PTP time is updated using the PTP input reference clock, HCLK. This PTP time is
used as a source to take snapshots (time stamps) of the Ethernet frames being transmitted
or received at the MII. The System Time counter can be initialized or corrected using either
the Coarse or the Fine correction method.
In the Coarse correction method, the initial value or the offset value is written to the Time
stamp update register (refer to Section 27.8.3: IEEE 1588 time stamp registers on
page 927). For initialization, the System Time counter is written with the value in the Time
stamp update registers, whereas for system time correction, the offset value (Time stamp
update register) is added to or subtracted from the system time.
In the Fine correction method, the slave clock (reference clock) frequency drift with respect
to the master clock (as defined in IEEE 1588) is corrected over a period of time, unlike in the
Coarse correction method where it is corrected in a single clock cycle. The longer correction
time helps maintain linear time and does not introduce drastic changes (or a large jitter) in
the reference time between PTP Sync message intervals. In this method, an accumulator
sums up the contents of the Addend register as shown in Figure 307. The arithmetic carry
that the accumulator generates is used as a pulse to increment the system time counter.
The accumulator and the addend are 32-bit registers. Here, the accumulator acts as a high-
precision frequency multiplier or divider. Figure 307 shows this algorithm.

The system time update logic requires a 50 MHz clock frequency to achieve 20 ns accuracy.
The frequency division is the ratio of the reference clock frequency to the required clock
frequency. Hence, if the reference clock (HCLK) is, let us say, 66 MHz, the ratio is calculated
as 66 MHz/50 MHz = 1.32. Hence, the default addend value to be set in the register is
232/1.32, which is equal to 0xC1F0 7C1F.
If the reference clock drifts lower, to 65 MHz for example, the ratio is 65/50 or 1.3 and the
value to set in the addend register is 232/1.30 equal to 0xC4EC 4EC4. If the clock drifts
higher, to 67 MHz for example, the addend register must be set to 0xBF0 B7672. When the
clock drift is zero, the default addend value of 0xC1F0 7C1F (232/1.32) should be
programmed.
In Figure 307, the constant value used to increment the subsecond register is 0d43. This
makes an accuracy of 20 ns in the system time (in other words, it is incremented by 20 ns
steps).
The software has to calculate the drift in frequency based on the Sync messages, and to
update the Addend register accordingly. Initially, the slave clock is set with
FreqCompensationValue0 in the Addend register. This value is as follows:
FreqCompensationValue0 = 232 / FreqDivisionRatio
If MasterToSlaveDelay is initially assumed to be the same for consecutive Sync messages,
the algorithm described below must be applied. After a few Sync cycles, frequency lock
occurs. The slave clock can then determine a precise MasterToSlaveDelay value and re-
synchronize with the master using the new value.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 875/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

The algorithm is as follows:

● At time MasterSyncTime (n) the master sends the slave clock a Sync message. The
slave receives this message when its local clock is SlaveClockTime (n) and computes
MasterClockTime (n) as:
MasterClockTime (n) = MasterSyncTime (n) + MasterToSlaveDelay (n)
● The master clock count for current Sync cycle, MasterClockCount (n) is given by:
MasterClockCount (n) = MasterClockTime (n) – MasterClockTime (n – 1) (assuming
that MasterToSlaveDelay is the same for Sync cycles n and n – 1)
● The slave clock count for current Sync cycle, SlaveClockCount (n) is given by:
SlaveClockCount (n) = SlaveClockTime (n) – SlaveClockTime (n – 1)
● The difference between master and slave clock counts for current Sync cycle,
ClockDiffCount (n) is given by:
ClockDiffCount (n) = MasterClockCount (n) – SlaveClockCount (n)
● The frequency-scaling factor for slave clock, FreqScaleFactor (n) is given by:
FreqScaleFactor (n) = (MasterClockCount (n) + ClockDiffCount (n)) /
SlaveClockCount (n)
● The frequency compensation value for Addend register, FreqCompensationValue (n) is
given by:
FreqCompensationValue (n) = FreqScaleFactor (n) × FreqCompensationValue (n – 1)
In theory, this algorithm achieves lock in one Sync cycle; however, it may take several
cycles, due to changing network propagation delays and operating conditions.
This algorithm is self-correcting: if for any reason the slave clock is initially set to a value
from the master that is incorrect, the algorithm corrects it at the cost of more Sync cycles.

Programming steps for system time generation initialization

The time stamping feature can be enabled by setting bit 0 in the Time stamp control register
(ETH__PTPTSCR). However, it is essential to initialize the time stamp counter after this bit
is set to start time stamp operation. The proper sequence is the following:
1. Mask the Time stamp trigger interrupt by setting bit 9 in the MACIMR register.
2. Program Time stamp register bit 0 to enable time stamping.
3. Program the Subsecond increment register based on the PTP clock frequency.
4. If you are using the Fine correction method, program the Time stamp addend register
and set Time stamp control register bit 5 (addend register update).
5. Poll the Time stamp control register until bit 5 is cleared.
6. To select the Fine correction method (if required), program Time stamp control register
bit 1.
7. Program the Time stamp high update and Time stamp low update registers with the
appropriate time value.
8. Set Time stamp control register bit 2 (Time stamp init).
9. The Time stamp counter starts operation as soon as it is initialized with the value
written in the Time stamp update register.
10. Enable the MAC receiver and transmitter for proper time stamping.
Note: If time stamp operation is disabled by clearing bit 0 in the ETH_PTPTSCR register, the
above steps must be repeated to restart the time stamp operation.

Programming steps for system time update in the Coarse correction method
To synchronize or update the system time in one process (coarse correction method),
perform the following steps:
1. Write the offset (positive or negative) in the Time stamp update high and low registers.
2. Set bit 3 (TSSTU) in the Time stamp control register.
3. The value in the Time stamp update registers is added to or subtracted from the system
time when the TSSTU bit is cleared.

Programming steps for system time update in the Fine correction method
To synchronize or update the system time to reduce system-time jitter (fine correction
method), perform the following steps:
1. With the help of the algorithm explained in Section : System Time correction methods,
calculate the rate by which you want to speed up or slow down the system time
increments.
2. Update the time stamp.
3. Wait the time you want the new value of the Addend register to be active. You can do
this by activating the Time stamp trigger interrupt after the system time reaches the
target value.
4. Program the required target time in the Target time high and low registers. Unmask the
Time stamp interrupt by clearing bit 9 in the ETH_MACIMR register.
5. Set Time stamp control register bit 4 (TSARU).
6. When this trigger causes an interrupt, read the ETH_MACSR register.
7. Reprogram the Time stamp addend register with the old value and set ETH_TPTSCR
bit 5 again.

PTP trigger internal connection with TIM2

The MAC provides a trigger interrupt when the system time becomes greater than the target
time. Using an interrupt introduces a known latency plus an uncertainty in the command
execution time.
In order to avoid this uncertainty, a PTP trigger output signal is set high when the system
time is greater than the target time. It is internally connected to the TIM2 input trigger. With
this signal, the input capture feature, the output compare feature and the waveforms of the
timer can be used, triggered by the synchronized PTP system time. No uncertainty is
introduced since the clock of the timer (PCLK1: TIM2 APB1 clock) and PTP reference clock
(HCLK) are synchronous.
This PTP trigger signal is connected to the TIM2 ITR1 input selectable by software. The
connection is enabled through bit 29 in the AFIO_MAPR register. Figure 308 shows the
connection.

PTP pulse-per-second output signal

This PTP pulse output is used to check the synchronization between all nodes in the
network. To be able to test the difference between the local slave clock and the master
reference clock, both clocks were given a pulse-per-second (PPS) output signal that may be
connected to an oscilloscope if necessary. The deviation between the two signals can
therefore be measured. The pulse width of the PPS output is 125 ms.
The PPS output is enabled through bit 30 in the AFIO_MAPR register.

27.6 Ethernet functional description: DMA controller operation

The DMA has independent transmit and receive engines, and a CSR space. The transmit
engine transfers data from system memory into the Tx FIFO while the receive engine
transfers data from the Rx FIFO into system memory. The controller utilizes descriptors to
efficiently move data from source to destination with minimum CPU intervention. The DMA
is designed for packet-oriented data transfers such as frames in Ethernet. The controller can
be programmed to interrupt the CPU in cases such as frame transmit and receive transfer
completion, and other normal/error conditions. The DMA and the STM32F107xx
communicate through two data structures:
● Control and status registers (CSR)
● Descriptor lists and data buffers.
Control and status registers are described in detail in Section 27.8 on page 906. Descriptors
are described in detail in Section on page 886.
The DMA transfers the received data frames to the receive buffer in the STM32F107xx
memory, and transmits data frames from the transmit buffer in the STM32F107xx memory.
Descriptors that reside in the STM32F107xx memory act as pointers to these buffers. There
are two descriptor lists: one for reception, and one for transmission. The base address of
each list is written into DMA Registers 3 and 4, respectively. A descriptor list is forward-
linked (either implicitly or explicitly). The last descriptor may point back to the first entry to
create a ring structure. Explicit chaining of descriptors is accomplished by configuring the
second address chained in both the receive and transmit descriptors (RDES1[14] and
TDES0[20]). The descriptor lists reside in the Host’s physical memory space. Each
descriptor can point to a maximum of two buffers. This enables the use of two physically
addressed buffers, instead of two contiguous buffers in memory. A data buffer resides in the
Host’s physical memory space, and consists of an entire frame or part of a frame, but cannot
exceed a single frame. Buffers contain only data. The buffer status is maintained in the
descriptor. Data chaining refers to frames that span multiple data buffers. However, a single
descriptor cannot span multiple frames. The DMA skips to the next frame buffer when the
end of frame is detected. Data chaining can be enabled or disabled. The descriptor ring and
chain structure is shown in Figure 310.

27.6.1 Initialization of a transfer using DMA

Initialization for the MAC is as follows:
1. Write to ETH_DMABMR to set STM32F107xx bus access parameters.
2. Write to the ETH_DMAIER register to mask unnecessary interrupt causes.
3. The software driver creates the transmit and receive descriptor lists. Then it writes to
both the ETH_DMARDLAR and ETH_DMATDLAR registers, providing the DMA with
the start address of each list.
4. Write to MAC Registers 1, 2, and 3 to choose the desired filtering options.
5. Write to the MAC ETH_MACCR register to configure and enable the transmit and
receive operating modes. The PS and DM bits are set based on the auto-negotiation
result (read from the PHY).
6. Write to the ETH_DMAOMR register to set bits 13 and 1 and start transmission and
reception.
7. The transmit and receive engines enter the running state and attempt to acquire
descriptors from the respective descriptor lists. The receive and transmit engines then
begin processing receive and transmit operations. The transmit and receive processes
are independent of each other and can be started or stopped separately.

27.6.2 Host bus burst access

The DMA attempts to execute fixed-length burst transfers on the AHB master interface if
configured to do so (FB bit in ETH_DMABMR). The maximum burst length is indicated and
limited by the PBL field (ETH_DMABMR [13:8]). The receive and transmit descriptors are
always accessed in the maximum possible burst size (limited by PBL) for the 16 bytes to be
read.
The Transmit DMA initiates a data transfer only when there is sufficient space in the
Transmit FIFO to accommodate the configured burst or the number of bytes until the end of
frame (when it is less than the configured burst length). The DMA indicates the start address
and the number of transfers required to the AHB Master Interface. When the AHB Interface
is configured for fixed-length burst, then it transfers data using the best combination of

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 879/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

INCR4, INCR8, INCR16 and SINGLE transactions. Otherwise (no fixed-length burst), it
transfers data using INCR (undefined length) and SINGLE transactions.
The Receive DMA initiates a data transfer only when sufficient data for the configured burst
is available in Receive FIFO or when the end of frame (when it is less than the configured
burst length) is detected in the Receive FIFO. The DMA indicates the start address and the
number of transfers required to the AHB master interface. When the AHB interface is
configured for fixed-length burst, then it transfers data using the best combination of INCR4,
INCR8, INCR16 and SINGLE transactions. If the end of frame is reached before the fixed-
burst ends on the AHB interface, then dummy transfers are performed in order to complete
the fixed-length burst. Otherwise (FB bit in ETH_DMABMR is reset), it transfers data using
INCR (undefined length) and SINGLE transactions.
When the AHB interface is configured for address-aligned beats, both DMA engines ensure
that the first burst transfer the AHB initiates is less than or equal to the size of the configured
PBL. Thus, all subsequent beats start at an address that is aligned to the configured PBL.
The DMA can only align the address for beats up to size 16 (for PBL > 16), because the
AHB interface does not support more than INCR16.

27.6.3 Host data buffer alignment

The transmit and receive data buffers do not have any restrictions on start address
alignment. In our system with 32-bit memory, the start address for the buffers can be aligned
to any of the four bytes. However, the DMA always initiates transfers with address aligned to
the bus width with dummy data for the byte lanes not required. This typically happens during
the transfer of the beginning or end of an Ethernet frame.
● Example of buffer read:
If the Transmit buffer address is 0x0000 0FF2, and 15 bytes need to be transferred,
then the DMA will read five full words from address 0x0000 0FF0, but when transferring
data to the Transmit FIFO, the extra bytes (the first two bytes) will be dropped or
ignored. Similarly, the last 3 bytes of the last transfer will also be ignored. The DMA
always ensures it transfers a full 32-bit data items to the Transmit FIFO, unless it is the
end of frame.
● Example of buffer write:
If the Receive buffer address is 0x0000 0FF2, and 16 bytes of a received frame need to
be transferred, then the DMA will write five full 32-bit data items from address
0x0000 0FF0. But the first 2 bytes of the first transfer and the last 2 bytes of the third
transfer will have dummy data.

27.6.4 Buffer size calculations

The DMA does not update the size fields in the transmit and receive descriptors. The DMA
updates only the status fields (xDES0) of the descriptors. The driver has to calculate the
sizes. The transmit DMA transfers the exact number of bytes (indicated by buffer size field in
TDES1) towards the MAC core. If a descriptor is marked as first (FS bit in TDES0 is set),
then the DMA marks the first transfer from the buffer as the start of frame. If a descriptor is
marked as last (LS bit in TDES0), then the DMA marks the last transfer from that data buffer
as the end of frame. The receive DMA transfers data to a buffer until the buffer is full or the
end of frame is received. If a descriptor is not marked as last (LS bit in RDES0), then the
buffer(s) that correspond to the descriptor are full and the amount of valid data in a buffer is
accurately indicated by the buffer size field minus the data buffer pointer offset when the
descriptor’s FS bit is set. The offset is zero when the data buffer pointer is aligned to the

880/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

databus width. If a descriptor is marked as last, then the buffer may not be full (as indicated
by the buffer size in RDES1). To compute the amount of valid data in this final buffer, the
driver must read the frame length (FL bits in RDES0[29:16]) and subtract the sum of the
buffer sizes of the preceding buffers in this frame. The receive DMA always transfers the
start of next frame with a new descriptor.
Note: Even when the start address of a receive buffer is not aligned to the system databus width
the system should allocate a receive buffer of a size aligned to the system bus width. For
example, if the system allocates a 1024 byte (1 KB) receive buffer starting from address
0x1000, the software can program the buffer start address in the receive descriptor to have
a 0x1002 offset. The receive DMA writes the frame to this buffer with dummy data in the first
two locations (0x1000 and 0x1001). The actual frame is written from location 0x1002. Thus,
the actual useful space in this buffer is 1022 bytes, even though the buffer size is
programmed as 1024 bytes, due to the start address offset.

27.6.5 DMA arbiter

The arbiter inside the DMA takes care of the arbitration between transmit and receive
channel accesses to the AHB master interface. Two types of arbitrations are possible:
round-robin, and fixed-priority. When round-robin arbitration is selected (DA bit in
ETH_DMABMR is reset), the arbiter allocates the databus in the ratio set by the RTPR bits
in ETH_DMABMR, when both transmit and receive DMAs request access simultaneously.
When the DA bit is set, the receive DMA always gets priority over the transmit DMA for data
access.

27.6.6 Error response to DMA

For any data transfer initiated by a DMA channel, if the slave replies with an error response,
that DMA stops all operations and updates the error bits and the fatal bus error bit in the
Status register (ETH_DMASR register). That DMA controller can resume operation only
after soft- or hard-resetting the peripheral and re-initializing the DMA.

27.6.7 Tx DMA configuration

TxDMA operation: default (non-OSF) mode
The transmit DMA engine in default mode proceeds as follows:
1. The user sets up the transmit descriptor (TDES0-TDES3) and sets the OWN bit
(TDES0[31]) after setting up the corresponding data buffer(s) with Ethernet frame data.
2. Once the ST bit (ETH_DMAOMR register[13]) is set, the DMA enters the Run state.
3. While in the Run state, the DMA polls the transmit descriptor list for frames requiring
transmission. After polling starts, it continues in either sequential descriptor ring order
or chained order. If the DMA detects a descriptor flagged as owned by the CPU, or if an
error condition occurs, transmission is suspended and both the Transmit Buffer

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 881/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

Unavailable (ETH_DMASR register[2]) and Normal Interrupt Summary (ETH_DMASR

register[16]) bits are set. The transmit engine proceeds to Step 9.
4. If the acquired descriptor is flagged as owned by DMA (TDES0[31] is set), the DMA
decodes the transmit data buffer address from the acquired descriptor.
5. The DMA fetches the transmit data from the STM32F107xx memory and transfers the
data.
6. If an Ethernet frame is stored over data buffers in multiple descriptors, the DMA closes
the intermediate descriptor and fetches the next descriptor. Steps 3, 4, and 5 are
repeated until the end of Ethernet frame data is transferred.
7. When frame transmission is complete, if IEEE 1588 time stamping was enabled for the
frame (as indicated in the transmit status) the time stamp value is written to the transmit
descriptor (TDES2 and TDES3) that contains the end-of-frame buffer. The status
information is then written to this transmit descriptor (TDES0). Because the OWN bit is
cleared during this step, the CPU now owns this descriptor. If time stamping was not
enabled for this frame, the DMA does not alter the contents of TDES2 and TDES3.
8. Transmit Interrupt (ETH_DMASR register [0]) is set after completing the transmission of
a frame that has Interrupt on Completion (TDES1[31]) set in its last descriptor. The
DMA engine then returns to Step 3.
9. In the Suspend state, the DMA tries to re-acquire the descriptor (and thereby returns to
Step 3) when it receives a transmit poll demand, and the Underflow Interrupt Status bit
is cleared.
Figure 311 shows the TxDMA transmission flow in default mode.

TxDMA operation: OSF mode

While in the Run state, the transmit process can simultaneously acquire two frames without
closing the Status descriptor of the first (if the OSF bit is set in ETH_DMAOMR register[2]).
As the transmit process finishes transferring the first frame, it immediately polls the transmit
descriptor list for the second frame. If the second frame is valid, the transmit process
transfers this frame before writing the first frame’s status information. In OSF mode, the
Run-state transmit DMA operates according to the following sequence:

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 883/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

1. The DMA operates as described in steps 1–6 of the TxDMA (default mode).
2. Without closing the previous frame’s last descriptor, the DMA fetches the next
descriptor.
3. If the DMA owns the acquired descriptor, the DMA decodes the transmit buffer address
in this descriptor. If the DMA does not own the descriptor, the DMA goes into Suspend
mode and skips to Step 7.
4. The DMA fetches the Transmit frame from the STM32F107xx memory and transfers the
frame until the end of frame data are transferred, closing the intermediate descriptors if
this frame is split across multiple descriptors.
5. The DMA waits for the transmission status and time stamp of the previous frame. When
the status is available, the DMA writes the time stamp to TDES2 and TDES3, if such
time stamp was captured (as indicated by a status bit). The DMA then writes the status,
with a cleared OWN bit, to the corresponding TDES0, thus closing the descriptor. If
time stamping was not enabled for the previous frame, the DMA does not alter the
contents of TDES2 and TDES3.
6. If enabled, the Transmit interrupt is set, the DMA fetches the next descriptor, then
proceeds to Step 3 (when Status is normal). If the previous transmission status shows
an underflow error, the DMA goes into Suspend mode (Step 7).
7. In Suspend mode, if a pending status and time stamp are received by the DMA, it
writes the time stamp (if enabled for the current frame) to TDES2 and TDES3, then
writes the status to the corresponding TDES0. It then sets relevant interrupts and
returns to Suspend mode.
8. The DMA can exit Suspend mode and enter the Run state (go to Step 1 or Step 2
depending on pending status) only after receiving a Transmit Poll demand
(ETH_DMATPDR register).
Figure 312 shows the basic flowchart in OSF mode.

Transmit frame processing

The transmit DMA expects that the data buffers contain complete Ethernet frames,
excluding preamble, pad bytes, and FCS fields. The DA, SA, and Type/Len fields contain
valid data. If the transmit descriptor indicates that the MAC core must disable CRC or pad
insertion, the buffer must have complete Ethernet frames (excluding preamble), including
the CRC bytes. Frames can be data-chained and span over several buffers. Frames have to
be delimited by the first descriptor (TDES0[28]) and the last descriptor (TDES0[29]). As the
transmission starts, TDES0[28] has to be set in the first descriptor. When this occurs, the
frame data are transferred from the memory buffer to the Transmit FIFO. Concurrently, if the
last descriptor (TDES0[29]) of the current frame is cleared, the transmit process attempts to
acquire the next descriptor. The transmit process expects TDES0[28] to be cleared in this
descriptor. If TDES0[29] is cleared, it indicates an intermediary buffer. If TDES0[29] is set, it

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 885/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

indicates the last buffer of the frame. After the last buffer of the frame has been transmitted,
the DMA writes back the final status information to the transmit descriptor 0 (TDES0) word
of the descriptor that has the last segment set in transmit descriptor 0 (TDES0[29]). At this
time, if Interrupt on Completion (TDES0[30]) is set, Transmit Interrupt (in ETH_DMASR
register [0]) is set, the next descriptor is fetched, and the process repeats. Actual frame
transmission begins after the Transmit FIFO has reached either a programmable transmit
threshold (ETH_DMAOMR register[16:14]), or a full frame is contained in the FIFO. There is
also an option for the Store and forward mode (ETH_DMAOMR register[21]). Descriptors
are released (OWN bit TDES0[31] is cleared) when the DMA finishes transferring the frame.

Transmit polling suspended

Transmit polling can be suspended by either of the following conditions:
● The DMA detects a descriptor owned by the CPU (TDES0[31]=0) and the Transmit
buffer unavailable flag is set (ETH_DMASR register[2]). To resume, the driver must give
descriptor ownership to the DMA and then issue a Poll Demand command.
● A frame transmission is aborted when a transmit error due to underflow is detected.
The appropriate Transmit Descriptor 0 (TDES0) bit is set. If the second condition
occurs, both the Abnormal Interrupt Summary (in ETH_DMASR register [15]) and
Transmit Underflow bits (in ETH_DMASR register[5]) are set, and the information is
written to Transmit Descriptor 0, causing the suspension. If the DMA goes into Suspend
state due to the first condition, then both the Normal Interrupt Summary (ETH_DMASR
register [16]) and Transmit Buffer Unavailable (ETH_DMASR register[2]) bits are set. In
both cases, the position in the transmit list is retained. The retained position is that of
the descriptor following the last descriptor closed by the DMA. The driver must explicitly
issue a Transmit Poll Demand command after rectifying the suspension cause.

Tx DMA descriptors
The descriptor structure consists of four 32-bit words as shown in Figure 313. The bit
descriptions of TDES0, TDES1, TDES2 and TDES3 are given below.

● TDES0: Transmit descriptor Word0

The application software has to program the control bits [30:26]+[23:20] plus the OWN

it back), it resets all the control bits plus the OWN bit, and reports only the status bits.

Bit 31 OWN: Own bit

When set, this bit indicates that the descriptor is owned by the DMA. When this bit is reset, it
indicates that the descriptor is owned by the CPU. The DMA clears this bit either when it
completes the frame transmission or when the buffers allocated in the descriptor are read
completely. The ownership bit of the frame’s first descriptor must be set after all subsequent
descriptors belonging to the same frame have been set.
Bit 30 IC: Interrupt on completion
When set, this bit sets the Transmit Interrupt (Register 5[0]) after the present frame has been
transmitted.
Bit 29 LS: Last segment
When set, this bit indicates that the buffer contains the last segment of the frame.
Bit 28 FS: First segment
When set, this bit indicates that the buffer contains the first segment of a frame.
Bit 27 DC: Disable CRC
When this bit is set, the MAC does not append a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) to the end of
the transmitted frame. This is valid only when the first segment (TDES0[28]) is set.
Bit 26 DP: Disable pad
When set, the MAC does not automatically add padding to a frame shorter than 64 bytes.
When this bit is reset, the DMA automatically adds padding and CRC to a frame shorter than
64 bytes, and the CRC field is added despite the state of the DC (TDES0[27]) bit. This is valid
only when the first segment (TDES0[28]) is set.
Bit 25 TTSE: Transmit time stamp enable
When TTSE is set and when TSE is set (ETH_PTPTSCR bit 0), IEEE1588 hardware time
stamping is activated for the transmit frame described by the descriptor. This field is only valid
when the First segment control bit (TDES0[28]) is set.
Bit 24 Reserved
Bits 23:22 CIC: Checksum insertion control
These bits control the checksum calculation and insertion. Bit encoding is as shown below:
00: Checksum Insertion disabled
01: Only IP header checksum calculation and insertion are enabled
10: IP header checksum and payload checksum calculation and insertion are enabled, but
pseudo-header checksum is not calculated in hardware
11: IP Header checksum and payload checksum calculation and insertion are enabled, and
pseudo-header checksum is calculated in hardware.
This field is reserved when the IPC_FULL_OFFLOAD configuration parameter is not selected.

Bit 21 TER: Transmit end of ring

When set, this bit indicates that the descriptor list reached its final descriptor. The DMA returns
to the base address of the list, creating a descriptor ring.
Bit 20 TCH: Second address chained
When set, this bit indicates that the second address in the descriptor is the next descriptor
address rather than the second buffer address. When TDES0[20] is set, TBS2 (TDES1[28:16])
is a “don’t care” value. TDES0[21] takes precedence over TDES0[20].
Bits 19:18 Reserved
Bit 17 TTSS: Transmit time stamp status
This field is used as a status bit to indicate that a time stamp was captured for the described
transmit frame. When this bit is set, TDES2 and TDES3 have a time stamp value captured for the
transmit frame. This field is only valid when the descriptor’s Last segment control bit (TDES0[29]) is
set.
Bit 16 IHE: IP header error
When set, this bit indicates that the MAC transmitter detected an error in the IP datagram
header. The transmitter checks the header length in the IPv4 packet against the number of
header bytes received from the application and indicates an error status if there is a mismatch.
For IPv6 frames, a header error is reported if the main header length is not 40 bytes.
Furthermore, the Ethernet length/type field value for an IPv4 or IPv6 frame must match the IP
header version received with the packet. For IPv4 frames, an error status is also indicated if
the Header Length field has a value less than 0x5.
Bit 15 ES: Error summary
Indicates the logical OR of the following bits:
– TDES0[14]: Jabber timeout
– TDES0[13]: Frame flush
– TDES0[11]: Loss of carrier
– TDES0[10]: No carrier
– TDES0[9]: Late collision
– TDES0[8]: Excessive collision
– TDES0[2]:Excessive deferral
– TDES0[1]: Underflow error
– TDES0[16]: IP header error
– TDES0[12]: IP payload error
Bit 14 JT: Jabber timeout
When set, this bit indicates the MAC transmitter has experienced a jabber timeout. This bit is
only set when the MAC configuration register’s JD bit is not set.
Bit 13 FF: Frame flushed
When set, this bit indicates that the DMA/MTL flushed the frame due to a software Flush
command given by the CPU.
Bit 12 IPE: IP payload error
When set, this bit indicates that MAC transmitter detected an error in the TCP, UDP, or ICMP
IP datagram payload. The transmitter checks the payload length received in the IPv4 or IPv6
header against the actual number of TCP, UDP or ICMP packet bytes received from the
application and issues an error status in case of a mismatch.

Bit 11 LCA: Loss of carrier

When set, this bit indicates that a loss of carrier occurred during frame transmission (that is,
the MII_CRS signal was inactive for one or more transmit clock periods during frame
transmission). This is valid only for the frames transmitted without collision when the MAC
operates in Half-duplex mode.
Bit 10 NC: No carrier
When set, this bit indicates that the Carrier Sense signal form the PHY was not asserted
during transmission.
Bit 9 LCO: Late collision
When set, this bit indicates that frame transmission was aborted due to a collision occurring
after the collision window (64 byte times, including preamble, in MII mode). This bit is not valid
if the Underflow Error bit is set.
Bit 8 EC: Excessive collision
When set, this bit indicates that the transmission was aborted after 16 successive collisions
while attempting to transmit the current frame. If the RD (Disable retry) bit in the MAC
Configuration register is set, this bit is set after the first collision, and the transmission of the
frame is aborted.
Bit 7 VF: VLAN frame
When set, this bit indicates that the transmitted frame was a VLAN-type frame.
Bits 6:3 CC: Collision count
This 4-bit counter value indicates the number of collisions occurring before the frame was
transmitted. The count is not valid when the Excessive collisions bit (TDES0[8]) is set.
Bit 2 ED: Excessive deferral
When set, this bit indicates that the transmission has ended because of excessive deferral of
over 24 288 bit times if the Deferral check (DC) bit in the MAC Control register is set high.
Bit 1 UF: Underflow error
When set, this bit indicates that the MAC aborted the frame because data arrived late from the
RAM memory. Underflow error indicates that the DMA encountered an empty transmit buffer
while transmitting the frame. The transmission process enters the Suspended state and sets
both Transmit underflow (Register 5[5]) and Transmit interrupt (Register 5[0]).
Bit 0 DB: Deferred bit
When set, this bit indicates that the MAC defers before transmission because of the presence
of the carrier. This bit is valid only in Half-duplex mode.

TBAP: When the software makes this descriptor available to the DMA (at the moment that the

descriptor ring structure is used. If the Second address chained (TDES1 [24]) bit is set, this
address contains the pointer to the physical memory where the next descriptor is present. The buffer
address pointer must be aligned to the bus width only when TDES1 [24] is set. (LSBs are ignored
internally.)
TTSH: Before it clears the OWN bit in TDES0, the DMA updates this field with the 32 most
significant bits of the time stamp captured for the corresponding transmit frame (overwriting the
value for TBAP2). This field has the time stamp only if time stamping is activated for this frame
(see TDES0 bit 25, TTSE) and if the Last segment control bit (LS) in the descriptor is set.

Tx DMA descriptor format with IEEE1588 time stamp

The descriptor format (as described previously) and field descriptions remain unchanged
when created by software (OWN bit is set in TDES0). However, if the software has enabled
the IEEE 1588 functionality, the TDES2 and TDES3 descriptor fields take on a different
meaning when the DMA closes the descriptor (OWN bit in TDES0 is cleared).
The Transmit descriptor has additional control and status bits (TTSE and TTSS,
respectively) for time stamping, as shown in Figure 314. The software sets the TTSE bit
(when the OWN bit is set), instructing the core to generate a time stamp for the
corresponding Ethernet frame being transmitted. The DMA sets the TTSS bit if the time
stamp has been updated in the TDES2 and TDES3 fields when the descriptor is closed
(OWN bit is cleared).

Bit 31 OWN: Own bit

When set, this bit indicates that the descriptor is owned by the DMA. When this bit is reset, it
indicates that the descriptor is owned by the CPU. The DMA clears this bit either when it
completes the frame transmission or when the buffers allocated in the descriptor are read
completely. The ownership bit of the frame’s first descriptor must be set after all subsequent
descriptors belonging to the same frame have been set.
Bit 30 IC: Interrupt on completion
When set, this bit sets the Transmit Interrupt (Register 5[0]) after the present frame has been
transmitted.
Bit 29 LS: Last segment
When set, this bit indicates that the buffer contains the last segment of the frame.
Bit 28 FS: First segment
When set, this bit indicates that the buffer contains the first segment of a frame.
Bit 27 DC: Disable CRC
When this bit is set, the MAC does not append a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) to the end of
the transmitted frame. This is valid only when the first segment (TDES0[28]) is set.
Bit 26 DP: Disable pad
When set, the MAC does not automatically add padding to a frame shorter than 64 bytes.
When this bit is reset, the DMA automatically adds padding and CRC to a frame shorter than
64 bytes, and the CRC field is added despite the state of the DC (TDES0[27]) bit. This is valid
only when the first segment (TDES0[28]) is set.
Bit 25 TTSE: Transmit time stamp enable
When set, this field enables IEEE1588 hardware time stamping for the transmit frame described
by the descriptor. This field is only valid when the First segment control bit (TDES0[28]) is set.
Bit 24 Reserved
Bits 23:22 CIC: Checksum insertion control
These bits control the checksum calculation and insertion. Bit encoding is as shown below:
00: Checksum Insertion disabled
01: Only IP header checksum calculation and insertion are enabled
10: IP header checksum and payload checksum calculation and insertion are enabled, but
pseudo-header checksum is not calculated in hardware
11: IP Header checksum and payload checksum calculation and insertion are enabled, and
pseudo-header checksum is calculated in hardware.
This field is reserved when the IPC_FULL_OFFLOAD configuration parameter is not selected.
Bit 21 TER: Transmit end of ring
When set, this bit indicates that the descriptor list reached its final descriptor. The DMA returns
to the base address of the list, creating a descriptor ring.

Bit 20 TCH: Second address chained

When set, this bit indicates that the second address in the descriptor is the next descriptor
address rather than the second buffer address. When TDES0[20] is set, TBS2 (TDES1[28:16])
is a “don’t care” value. TDES0[21] takes precedence over TDES0[20].
Bits 19:18 Reserved
Bits 17 TTSS: Transmit time stamp status
This field is used as a status bit to indicate that a time stamp was captured for the described
transmit frame. When this bit is set, TDES2 and TDES3 have a time stamp value captured for the
transmit frame. This field is only valid when the descriptor’s Last segment control bit (TDES0[29]) is
set.
Bit 16 IHE: IP header error
When set, this bit indicates that the MAC transmitter detected an error in the IP datagram
header. The transmitter checks the header length in the IPv4 packet against the number of
header bytes received from the application and indicates an error status if there is a mismatch.
For IPv6 frames, a header error is reported if the main header length is not 40 bytes.
Furthermore, the Ethernet length/type field value for an IPv4 or IPv6 frame must match the IP
header version received with the packet. For IPv4 frames, an error status is also indicated if
the Header Length field has a value less than 0x5.
Bit 15 ES: Error summary
Indicates the logical OR of the following bits:
– TDES0[14]: Jabber timeout
– TDES0[13]: Frame flush
– TDES0[11]: Loss of carrier
– TDES0[10]: No carrier
– TDES0[9]: Late collision
– TDES0[8]: Excessive collision
– TDES0[2]:Excessive deferral
– TDES0[1]: Underflow error
– TDES0[16]: IP header error
– TDES0[12]: IP payload error
Bit 14 JT: Jabber timeout
When set, this bit indicates the MAC transmitter has experienced a jabber timeout. This bit is
only set when the MAC configuration register’s JD bit is not set.
Bit 13 FF: Frame flushed
When set, this bit indicates that the DMA/MTL flushed the frame due to a software Flush
command given by the CPU.
Bit 12 IPE: IP payload error
When set, this bit indicates that MAC transmitter detected an error in the TCP, UDP, or ICMP
IP datagram payload. The transmitter checks the payload length received in the IPv4 or IPv6
header against the actual number of TCP, UDP or ICMP packet bytes received from the
application and issues an error status in case of a mismatch.
Bit 11 LCA: Loss of carrier
When set, this bit indicates that a loss of carrier occurred during frame transmission (that is,
the MII_CRS signal was inactive for one or more transmit clock periods during frame
transmission). This is valid only for the frames transmitted without collision when the MAC
operates in Half-duplex mode.

Bit 10 NC: No carrier

When set, this bit indicates that the Carrier Sense signal form the PHY was not asserted
during transmission.
Bit 9 LCO: Late collision
When set, this bit indicates that frame transmission was aborted due to a collision occurring
after the collision window (64 byte times, including preamble, in MII mode). This bit is not valid
if the Underflow Error bit is set.
Bit 8 EC: Excessive collision
When set, this bit indicates that the transmission was aborted after 16 successive collisions
while attempting to transmit the current frame. If the RD (Disable retry) bit in the MAC
Configuration register is set, this bit is set after the first collision, and the transmission of the
frame is aborted.
Bit 7 VF: VLAN frame
When set, this bit indicates that the transmitted frame was a VLAN-type frame.
Bits 6:3 CC: Collision count
This 4-bit counter value indicates the number of collisions occurring before the frame was
transmitted. The count is not valid when the Excessive collisions bit (TDES0[8]) is set.
Bit 2 ED: Excessive deferral
When set, this bit indicates that the transmission has ended because of excessive deferral of
over 24 288 bit times if the Deferral check (DC) bit in the MAC Control register is set high.
Bit 1 UF: Underflow error
When set, this bit indicates that the MAC aborted the frame because data arrived late from the
RAM memory. Underflow error indicates that the DMA encountered an empty transmit buffer
while transmitting the frame. The transmission process enters the Suspended state and sets
both Transmit underflow (Register 5[5]) and Transmit interrupt (Register 5[0]).
Bit 0 DB: Deferred bit
When set, this bit indicates that the MAC defers before transmission because of the presence
of the carrier. This bit is valid only in Half-duplex mode.

27.6.8 Rx DMA configuration

The Receive DMA engine’s reception sequence is illustrated in Figure 315 and described
below:
1. The CPU sets up Receive descriptors (RDES0-RDES3) and sets the OWN bit
(RDES0[31]).
2. Once the SR (ETH_DMAOMR register[1]) bit is set, the DMA enters the Run state.
While in the Run state, the DMA polls the receive descriptor list, attempting to acquire
free descriptors. If the fetched descriptor is not free (is owned by the CPU), the DMA
enters the Suspend state and jumps to Step 9.
3. The DMA decodes the receive data buffer address from the acquired descriptors.
4. Incoming frames are processed and placed in the acquired descriptor’s data buffers.
5. When the buffer is full or the frame transfer is complete, the Receive engine fetches the
next descriptor.
6. If the current frame transfer is complete, the DMA proceeds to step 7. If the DMA does
not own the next fetched descriptor and the frame transfer is not complete (EOF is not
yet transferred), the DMA sets the Descriptor error bit in RDES0 (unless flushing is
disabled). The DMA closes the current descriptor (clears the OWN bit) and marks it as
intermediate by clearing the Last segment (LS) bit in the RDES1 value (marks it as last
descriptor if flushing is not disabled), then proceeds to step 8. If the DMA owns the next
descriptor but the current frame transfer is not complete, the DMA closes the current
descriptor as intermediate and returns to step 4.
7. If IEEE 1588 time stamping is enabled, the DMA writes the time stamp (if available) to
the current descriptor’s RDES2 and RDES3. It then takes the received frame’s status
and writes the status word to the current descriptor’s RDES0, with the OWN bit cleared
and the Last segment bit set.
8. The Receive engine checks the latest descriptor’s OWN bit. If the CPU owns the
descriptor (OWN bit is at 0) the Receive buffer unavailable bit (in ETH_DMASR
register[7]) is set and the DMA Receive engine enters the Suspended state (step 9). If
the DMA owns the descriptor, the engine returns to step 4 and awaits the next frame.
9. Before the Receive engine enters the Suspend state, partial frames are flushed from
the Receive FIFO (you can control flushing using bit 24 in the ETH_DMAOMR register).
10. The Receive DMA exits the Suspend state when a Receive Poll demand is given or the
start of next frame is available from the Receive FIFO. The engine proceeds to step 2
and re-fetches the next descriptor.
The DMA does not acknowledge accepting the status until it has completed the time stamp
write-back and is ready to perform status write-back to the descriptor. If software has

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

enabled time stamping through CSR, when a valid time stamp value is not available for the
frame (for example, because the receive FIFO was full before the time stamp could be
written to it), the DMA writes all ones to RDES2 and RDES3. Otherwise (that is, if time
stamping is not enabled), RDES2 and RDES3 remain unchanged.

Receive descriptor acquisition

The receive engine always attempts to acquire an extra descriptor in anticipation of an
incoming frame. Descriptor acquisition is attempted if any of the following conditions is/are
satisfied:
● The receive Start/Stop bit (ETH_DMAOMR register[1]) has been set immediately after
the DMA has been placed in the Run state.
● The data buffer of the current descriptor is full before the end of the frame currently
being transferred
● The controller has completed frame reception, but the current receive descriptor has
not yet been closed.
● The receive process has been suspended because of a CPU-owned buffer
(RDES0[31] = 0) and a new frame is received.
● A Receive poll demand has been issued.

Receive frame processing

The MAC transfers the received frames to the STM32F107xx memory only when the frame
passes the address filter and the frame size is greater than or equal to the configurable
threshold bytes set for the Receive FIFO, or when the complete frame is written to the FIFO
in Store-and-forward mode. If the frame fails the address filtering, it is dropped in the MAC
block itself (unless Receive All ETH_MACFFR [31] bit is set). Frames that are shorter than
64 bytes, because of collision or premature termination, can be purged from the Receive
FIFO. After 64 (configurable threshold) bytes have been received, the DMA block begins
transferring the frame data to the receive buffer pointed to by the current descriptor. The
DMA sets the first descriptor (RDES0[9]) after the DMA AHB Interface becomes ready to
receive a data transfer (if DMA is not fetching transmit data from the memory), to delimit the
frame. The descriptors are released when the OWN (RDES0[31]) bit is reset to 0, either as
the data buffer fills up or as the last segment of the frame is transferred to the receive buffer.
If the frame is contained in a single descriptor, both the last descriptor (RDES0[8]) and first
descriptor (RDES0[9]) bits are set. The DMA fetches the next descriptor, sets the last
descriptor (RDES0[8]) bit, and releases the RDES0 status bits in the previous frame
descriptor. Then the DMA sets the receive interrupt bit (ETH_DMASR register [6]). The
same process repeats unless the DMA encounters a descriptor flagged as being owned by
the CPU. If this occurs, the receive process sets the receive buffer unavailable bit
(ETH_DMASR register[7]) and then enters the Suspend state. The position in the receive
list is retained.

Receive process suspended

If a new receive frame arrives while the receive process is in Suspend state, the DMA re-
fetches the current descriptor in the STM32F107xx memory. If the descriptor is now owned
by the DMA, the receive process re-enters the Run state and starts frame reception. If the
descriptor is still owned by the host, by default, the DMA discards the current frame at the
top of the Rx FIFO and increments the missed frame counter. If more than one frame is
stored in the Rx FIFO, the process repeats. The discarding or flushing of the frame at the
top of the Rx FIFO can be avoided by setting the DMA Operation mode register bit 24
(DFRF). In such conditions, the receive process sets the receive buffer unavailable status bit
and returns to the Suspend state.

These bits take on two different functions: the application uses them to indicate to the DMA
where to store the data in memory, and then after transferring all the data the DMA may use
these bits to pass back time stamp data.
RBAP1: When the software makes this descriptor available to the DMA (at the moment that the
OWN bit is set to 1 in RDES0), these bits indicate the physical address of Buffer 1. There are no
limitations on the buffer address alignment except for the following condition: the DMA uses the
configured value for its address generation when the RDES2 value is used to store the start of
frame. Note that the DMA performs a write operation with the RDES2[3/2/1:0] bits as 0 during the
transfer of the start of frame but the frame data is shifted as per the actual Buffer address pointer. The
DMA ignores RDES2[3/2/1:0] (corresponding to bus width of 128/64/32) if the address pointer is to a
buffer where the middle or last part of the frame is stored.
RTSL: Before it clears the OWN bt in RDES0, the DMA updates this field with the 32 least
significant bits of the time stamp captured for the corresponding receive frame (overwriting the

and if the Last segment control bit (LS) in the descriptor is set.

RBAP1: When the software makes this descriptor available to the DMA (at the moment that the

contains the pointer to the physical memory where the next descriptor is present. If RDES1 [24] is
set, the buffer (next descriptor) address pointer must be bus width-aligned (RDES3[3, 2, or 1:0]
= 0, corresponding to a bus width of 128, 64 or 32. LSBs are ignored internally.) However, when
RDES1 [24] is reset, there are no limitations on the RDES3 value, except for the following condition:
the DMA uses the configured value for its buffer address generation when the RDES3 value is used to

27.6.9 DMA interrupts

Interrupts can be generated as a result of various events. The ETH_DMASR register
contains all the bits that might cause an interrupt. The ETH_DMAIER register contains an
enable bit for each of the events that can cause an interrupt.
There are two groups of interrupts, Normal and Abnormal, as described in the
ETH_DMASR register. Interrupts are cleared by writing a 1 to the corresponding bit position.
When all the enabled interrupts within a group are cleared, the corresponding summary bit
is cleared. If the MAC core is the cause for assertion of the interrupt, then any of the TSTS
or PMTS bits in the ETH_DMASR register is set high.
Interrupts are not queued and if the interrupt event occurs before the driver has responded
to it, no additional interrupts are generated. For example, the Receive Interrupt bit
(ETH_DMASR register [6]) indicates that one or more frames were transferred to the

904/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller

STM32F107xx buffer. The driver must scan all descriptors, from the last recorded position to
the first one owned by the DMA.
An interrupt is generated only once for simultaneous, multiple events. The driver must scan
the ETH_DMASR register for the cause of the interrupt. The interrupt is not generated again
unless a new interrupting event occurs, after the driver has cleared the appropriate bit in the
ETH_DMASR register. For example, the controller generates a Receive interrupt
(ETH_DMASR register[6]) and the driver begins reading the ETH_DMASR register. Next,
receive buffer unavailable (ETH_DMASR register[7]) occurs. The driver clears the Receive
interrupt. Even then, a new interrupt is generated, due to the active or pending Receive
buffer unavailable interrupt.

27.7 Ethernet interrupts

The Ethernet controller has two interrupt vectors: one dedicated to normal Ethernet
operations and the other, used only for the Ethernet wakeup event (with wakeup frame or
Magic Packet detection) when it is mapped on EXTI lIne19.
The first Ethernet vector is reserved for interrupts generated by the MAC and the DMA as
listed in the MAC interrupts and DMA interrupts sections.
The second vector is reserved for interrupts generated by the PMT on wakeup events. The
mapping of a wakeup event on EXTI line19 causes the STM32F107xx to exit the low power
mode, and generates an interrupt.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 905/995

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

When an Ethernet wakeup event mapped on EXTI Line19 occurs and the MAC PMT
interrupt is enabled and the EXTI Line19 interrupt, with detection on rising edge, is also
enabled, both interrupts are generated.
A watchdog timer (see ETH_DMARSWTR register) is given for flexible control of the RS bit
(ETH_DMASR register). When this watchdog timer is programmed with a non-zero value, it
gets activated as soon as the RxDMA completes a transfer of a received frame to system
memory without asserting the Receive Status because it is not enabled in the corresponding
Receive descriptor (RDES1[31]). When this timer runs out as per the programmed value,
the RS bit is set and the interrupt is asserted if the corresponding RIE is enabled in the
ETH_DMAIER register. This timer is disabled before it runs out, when a frame is transferred
to memory and the RS is set because it is enabled for that descriptor.
Note: Reading the PMT control and status register automatically clears the Wakeup Frame
Received and Magic Packet Received PMT interrupt flags. However, since the registers for
these flags are in the CLK_RX domain, there may be a significant delay before this update is
visible by the firmware. The delay is especially long when the RX clock is slow (in 10 Mbit
mode) and when the AHB bus is high-frequency.
Since interrupt requests from the PMT to the CPU are based on the same registers in the
CLK_RX domain, the CPU may spuriously call the interrupt routine a second time even after
reading PMT_CSR. Thus, it may be necessary that the firmware polls the Wakeup Frame
Received and Magic Packet Received bits and exits the interrupt service routine only when
they are found to be at ‘0’.

Bit 16 CSD: Carrier sense disable
When set high, this bit makes the MAC transmitter ignore the MII CRS signal during frame
transmission in Half-duplex mode. No error is generated due to Loss of Carrier or No Carrier
during such transmission.
When this bit is low, the MAC transmitter generates such errors due to Carrier Sense and even
aborts the transmissions.

Bit 9 RD: Retry disable

When this bit is set, the MAC attempts only 1 transmission. When a collision occurs on the
MII, the MAC ignores the current frame transmission and reports a Frame Abort with
excessive collision error in the transmit frame status.
When this bit is reset, the MAC attempts retries based on the settings of BL.
Note: This bit is applicable only in the Half-duplex mode.

field value is less than or equal to 1 500 bytes. All received frames with length field greater
than or equal to 1 501 bytes are passed on to the application without stripping the Pad/FCS
field.
When this bit is reset, the MAC passes all incoming frames unmodified.
Bits 6:5 BL: Back-off limit
The Back-off limit determines the random integer number (r) of slot time delays (4 096 bit

Bit 4 DC: Deferral check
When this bit is set, the deferral check function is enabled in the MAC. The MAC issues a
Frame Abort status, along with the excessive deferral error bit set in the transmit frame status
when the transmit state machine is deferred for more than 24 288 bit times in 10/100-Mbit/s
mode. Deferral begins when the transmitter is ready to transmit, but is prevented because of
an active CRS (carrier sense) signal on the MII. Defer time is not cumulative. If the transmitter
defers for 10 000 bit times, then transmits, collides, backs off, and then has to defer again after
completion of back-off, the deferral timer resets to 0 and restarts.
When this bit is reset, the deferral check function is disabled and the MAC defers until the CRS
signal goes inactive. This bit is applicable only in Half-duplex mode.
Bit 3 TE: Transmitter enable
When this bit is set, the transmit state machine of the MAC is enabled for transmission on the
MII. When this bit is reset, the MAC transmit state machine is disabled after the completion of
the transmission of the current frame, and does not transmit any further frames.
Bit 2 RE: Receiver enable
When this bit is set, the receiver state machine of the MAC is enabled for receiving frames
from the MII. When this bit is reset, the MAC receive state machine is disabled after the
completion of the reception of the current frame, and will not receive any further frames from
the MII.

the frame is passed only if it matches the Hash filter.
Bit 9 SAF: Source address filter
The MAC core compares the SA field of the received frames with the values programmed in
the enabled SA registers. If the comparison matches, then the SAMatch bit in the RxStatus
word is set high. When this bit is set high and the SA filter fails, the MAC drops the frame.
When this bit is reset, the MAC core forwards the received frame to the application. It also
forwards the updated SA Match bit in RxStatus depending on the SA address comparison.
Bit 8 SAIF: Source address inverse filtering
When this bit is set, the address check block operates in inverse filtering mode for the SA
address comparison. The frames whose SA matches the SA registers are marked as failing
the SA address filter.
When this bit is reset, frames whose SA does not match the SA registers are marked as failing
the SA address filter.
Bits 7:6 PCF: Pass control frames
These bits control the forwarding of all control frames (including unicast and multicast PAUSE
frames). Note that the processing of PAUSE control frames depends only on RFCE in Flow

Bit 3 DAIF: Destination address inverse filtering

When this bit is set, the address check block operates in inverse filtering mode for the DA

When reset, normal filtering of frames is performed.
Bit 2 HM: Hash multicast
When set, MAC performs destination address filtering of received multicast frames according
to the hash table.
When reset, the MAC performs a perfect destination address filtering for multicast frames, that
is, it compares the DA field with the values programmed in DA registers.
Bit 1 HU: Hash unicast
When set, MAC performs destination address filtering of unicast frames according to the hash
table.
When reset, the MAC performs a perfect destination address filtering for unicast frames, that
is, it compares the DA field with the values programmed in DA registers.
Bit 0 PM: Promiscuous mode
When this bit is set, the address filters pass all incoming frames regardless of their destination
or source address. The SA/DA filter fails status bits in the receive status word are always
cleared when PM is set.

Ethernet MAC hash table high register (ETH_MACHTHR)

Address offset: 0x0008
Reset value: 0x0000 0000
The 64-bit Hash table is used for group address filtering. For hash filtering, the contents of
the destination address in the incoming frame are passed through the CRC logic, and the
upper 6 bits in the CRC register are used to index the contents of the Hash table. The most
significant bit determines the register to be used (hash table high/hash table low), and the
other 5 bits determine which bit within the register. A hash value of 0b0 0000 selects bit 0 in
the selected register, and a value of 0b1 1111 selects bit 31 in the selected register.
For example, if the DA of the incoming frame is received as 0x1F52 419C B6AF (0x1F is the
first byte received on the MII interface), then the internally calculated 6-bit Hash value is
0x2C and the HTH register bit[12] is checked for filtering. If the DA of the incoming frame is
received as 0xA00A 9800 0045, then the calculated 6-bit Hash value is 0x07 and the HTL
register bit[7] is checked for filtering.
If the corresponding bit value in the register is 1, the frame is accepted. Otherwise, it is
rejected. If the PAM (pass all multicast) bit is set in the ETH_MACFFR register, then all
multicast frames are accepted regardless of the multicast hash values.
The Hash table high register contains the higher 32 bits of the multicast Hash table.

Bits 31:16 PT: Pause time

This field holds the value to be used in the Pause Time field in the transmit control frame. If the
Pause Time bits is configured to be double-synchronized to the MII clock domain, then
consecutive write operations to this register should be performed only after at least 4 clock
cycles in the destination clock domain.
Bits 15:8 Reserved
Bit 7 ZQPD: Zero-quanta pause disable
When set, this bit disables the automatic generation of Zero-quanta pause control frames on
the deassertion of the flow-control signal from the FIFO layer.
When this bit is reset, normal operation with automatic Zero-quanta pause control frame
generation is enabled.
Bit 6 Reserved
Bits 5:4 PLT: Pause low threshold
This field configures the threshold of the Pause timer at which the Pause frame is
automatically retransmitted. The threshold values should always be less than the Pause Time
configured in bits[31:16]. For example, if PT = 100H (256 slot-times), and PLT = 01, then a
second PAUSE frame is automatically transmitted if initiated at 228 (256 – 28) slot-times after
the first PAUSE frame is transmitted.
Selection Threshold
00 Pause time minus 4 slot times
01 Pause time minus 28 slot times
10 Pause time minus 144 slot times
11 Pause time minus 256 slot times
Slot time is defined as time taken to transmit 512 bits (64 bytes) on the MII interface.
Bit 3 UPFD: Unicast pause frame detect
When this bit is set, the MAC detects the Pause frames with the station’s unicast address
specified in the ETH_MACA0HR and ETH_MACA0LR registers, in addition to detecting Pause
frames with the unique multicast address.
When this bit is reset, the MAC detects only a Pause frame with the unique multicast address
specified in the 802.3x standard.
Bit 2 RFCE: Receive flow control enable
When this bit is set, the MAC decodes the received Pause frame and disables its transmitter
for a specified (Pause Time) time.
When this bit is reset, the decode function of the Pause frame is disabled.
Bit 1 TFCE: Transmit flow control enable
In Full-duplex mode, when this bit is set, the MAC enables the flow control operation to
transmit Pause frames. When this bit is reset, the flow control operation in the MAC is
disabled, and the MAC does not transmit any Pause frames.
In Half-duplex mode, when this bit is set, the MAC enables the back-pressure operation. When
this bit is reset, the back pressure feature is disabled.

Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller RM0008

Bit 0 FCB/BPA: Flow control busy/back pressure activate

This bit initiates a Pause Control frame in Full-duplex mode and activates the back pressure
function in Half-duplex mode if TFCE bit is set.
In Full-duplex mode, this bit should be read as 0 before writing to the Flow control register. To
initiate a Pause control frame, the Application must set this bit to 1. During a transfer of the
Control frame, this bit continues to be set to signify that a frame transmission is in progress.
After completion of the Pause control frame transmission, the MAC resets this bit to 0. The
Flow control register should not be written to until this bit is cleared.
In Half-duplex mode, when this bit is set (and TFCE is set), back pressure is asserted by the
MAC core. During back pressure, when the MAC receives a new frame, the transmitter starts
sending a JAM pattern resulting in a collision. When the MAC is configured to Full-duplex
mode, the BPA is automatically disabled.

Ethernet MAC VLAN tag register (ETH_MACVLANTR)

Address offset: 0x001C
Reset value: 0x0000 0000
The VLAN tag register contains the IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Tag to identify the VLAN frames.
The MAC compares the 13th and 14th bytes of the receiving frame (Length/Type) with
0x8100, and the following 2 bytes are compared with the VLAN tag; if a match occurs, the
received VLAN bit in the receive frame status is set. The legal length of the frame is
increased from 1518 bytes to 1522 bytes.

Bit 16 VLANTC: 12-bit VLAN tag comparison
When this bit is set, a 12-bit VLAN identifier, rather than the complete 16-bit VLAN tag, is used
for comparison and filtering. Bits[11:0] of the VLAN tag are compared with the corresponding
field in the received VLAN-tagged frame.
When this bit is reset, all 16 bits of the received VLAN frame’s fifteenth and sixteenth bytes are
used for comparison.
Bits 15:0 VLANTI: VLAN tag identifier (for receive frames)
This contains the 802.1Q VLAN tag to identify VLAN frames, and is compared to the fifteenth
and sixteenth bytes of the frames being received for VLAN frames. Bits[15:13] are the user
priority, Bit[12] is the canonical format indicator (CFI) and bits[11:0] are the VLAN tag’s VLAN
identifier (VID) field. When the VLANTC bit is set, only the VID (bits[11:0]) is used for
comparison.
If VLANTI (VLANTI[11:0] if VLANTC is set) is all zeros, the MAC does not check the fifteenth
and sixteenth bytes for VLAN tag comparison, and declares all frames with a Type field value
of 0x8100 as VLAN frames.

Bit 25 AAB: Address-aligned beats
When this bit is set high and the FB bit equals 1, the AHB interface generates all bursts aligned
to the start address LS bits. If the FB bit equals 0, the first burst (accessing the data buffer’s
start address) is not aligned, but subsequent bursts are aligned to the address.
Bit 24 FPM: 4xPBL mode
When set high, this bit multiplies the PBL value programmed (bits [22:17] and bits [13:8]) four
times. Thus the DMA transfers data in a maximum of 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 and 128 beats depending
on the PBL value.
Bit 23 USP: Use separate PBL
When set high, it configures the RxDMA to use the value configured in bits [22:17] as PBL
while the PBL value in bits [13:8] is applicable to TxDMA operations only. When this bit is
cleared, the PBL value in bits [13:8] is applicable for both DMA engines.

Bits 22:17 RDP: Rx DMA PBL

These bits indicate the maximum number of beats to be transferred in one RxDMA transaction.
This is the maximum value that is used in a single block read/write operation. The RxDMA
always attempts to burst as specified in RDP each time it starts a burst transfer on the host
bus. RDP can be programmed with permissible values of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32. Any other value
results in undefined behavior.
These bits are valid and applicable only when USP is set high.
Bit 16 FB: Fixed burst
This bit controls whether the AHB Master interface performs fixed burst transfers or not. When
set, the AHB uses only SINGLE, INCR4, INCR8 or INCR16 during start of normal burst
transfers. When reset, the AHB uses SINGLE and INCR burst transfer operations.
Bits 15:14 RTPR: Rx Tx priority ratio
RxDMA requests are given priority over TxDMA requests in the following ratio:
00: 1:1
01: 2:1
10: 3:1
11: 4:1
This is valid only when the DA bit is cleared.
Bits 13:8 PBL: Programmable burst length
These bits indicate the maximum number of beats to be transferred in one DMA transaction.
This is the maximum value that is used in a single block read/write operation. The DMA always
attempts to burst as specified in PBL each time it starts a burst transfer on the host bus. PBL
can be programmed with permissible values of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32. Any other value results in
undefined behavior. When USP is set, this PBL value is applicable for TxDMA transactions
only.
The PBL values have the following limitations:
– The maximum number of beats (PBL) possible is limited by the size of the Tx FIFO and Rx
FIFO.
– The FIFO has a constraint that the maximum beat supported is half the depth of the FIFO.
– If the PBL is common for both transmit and receive DMA, the minimum Rx FIFO and Tx
FIFO depths must be considered.
– Do not program out-of-range PBL values, because the system may not behave properly.
Bit 7 Reserved
Bits 6:2 DSL: Descriptor skip length
This bit specifies the number of Word/Dword/Lword (depending on 32/64/128-bit bus) to skip
between two unchained descriptors. The address skipping starts from the end of current
descriptor to the start of next descriptor. When DSL value equals zero, the descriptor table is
taken as contiguous by the DMA, in Ring mode.

Ethernet DMA transmit poll demand register (ETH_DMATPDR)

Address offset: 0x1004
Reset value: 0x0000 0000
This register is used by the application to instruct the DMA to poll the transmit descriptor list.
The transmit poll demand register enables the Transmit DMA to check whether or not the
current descriptor is owned by DMA. The Transmit Poll Demand command is given to wake
up the TxDMA if it is in Suspend mode. The TxDMA can go into Suspend mode due to an
underflow error in a transmitted frame or due to the unavailability of descriptors owned by
transmit DMA. You can issue this command anytime and the TxDMA resets it once it starts
re-fetching the current descriptor from host memory.

This field contains the base address of the first descriptor in the transmit descriptor list. The
LSB bits [1/2/3:0] for 32/64/128-bit bus width) are internally ignored and taken as all-zero by
the DMA. Hence these LSB bits are read-only.

Ethernet DMA status register (ETH_DMASR)

The Status register contains all the status bits that the DMA reports to the application. The
ETH_DMASR register is usually read by the software driver during an interrupt service
routine or polling. Most of the fields in this register cause the host to be interrupted. The
ETH_DMASR register bits are not cleared when read. Writing 1 to (unreserved) bits in

– ETH_DMASR [0]: Transmit interrupt
– ETH_DMASR [2]: Transmit buffer unavailable
– ETH_DMASR [6]: Receive interrupt

Bit 8 RPSS: Receive process stopped status

This bit is asserted when the receive process enters the Stopped state.
Bit 7 RBUS: Receive buffer unavailable status
This bit indicates that the next descriptor in the receive list is owned by the host and cannot be
acquired by the DMA. Receive process is suspended. To resume processing receive
descriptors, the host should change the ownership of the descriptor and issue a Receive Poll
Demand command. If no Receive Poll Demand is issued, receive process resumes when the
next recognized incoming frame is received. ETH_DMASR [7] is set only when the previous
receive descriptor was owned by the DMA.
Bit 6 RS: Receive status
This bit indicates the completion of the frame reception. Specific frame status information has
been posted in the descriptor. Reception remains in the Running state.
Bit 5 TUS: Transmit underflow status
This bit indicates that the transmit buffer had an underflow during frame transmission.
Transmission is suspended and an underflow error TDES0[1] is set.
Bit 4 ROS: Receive overflow status
This bit indicates that the receive buffer had an overflow during frame reception. If the partial
frame is transferred to the application, the overflow status is set in RDES0[11].
Bit 3 TJTS: Transmit jabber timeout status
This bit indicates that the transmit jabber timer expired, meaning that the transmitter had been
excessively active. The transmission process is aborted and placed in the Stopped state. This
causes the transmit jabber timeout TDES0[14] flag to be asserted.
Bit 2 TBUS: Transmit buffer unavailable status
This bit indicates that the next descriptor in the transmit list is owned by the host and cannot be
acquired by the DMA. Transmission is suspended. Bits [22:20] explain the transmit process

Bit 26 DTCEFD: Dropping of TCP/IP checksum error frames disable
When this bit is set, the core does not drop frames that only have errors detected by the
receive checksum offload engine. Such frames do not have any errors (including FCS error) in
the Ethernet frame received by the MAC but have errors in the encapsulated payload only.
When this bit is cleared, all error frames are dropped if the FEF bit is reset.
Bit 25 RSF: Receive store and forward
When this bit is set, a frame is read from the Rx FIFO after the complete frame has been
written to it, ignoring RTC bits. When this bit is cleared, the Rx FIFO operates in Cut-through
mode, subject to the threshold specified by the RTC bits.
Bit 24 DFRF: Disable flushing of received frames
When this bit is set, the RxDMA does not flush any frames due to the unavailability of receive
descriptors/buffers as it does normally when this bit is cleared. (See Receive process
suspended on page 897)
Bits 23:22 Reserved
Bit 21 TSF: Transmit store and forward

When this bit is cleared, the TTC values specified by the ETH_DMAOMR register bits [16:14]

Bit 13 ST: Start/stop transmission
When this bit is set, transmission is placed in the Running state, and the DMA checks the
transmit list at the current position for a frame to be transmitted. Descriptor acquisition is
attempted either from the current position in the list, which is the transmit list base address set
by the ETH_DMATDLAR register, or from the position retained when transmission was
stopped previously. If the current descriptor is not owned by the DMA, transmission enters the
Suspended state and the transmit buffer unavailable bit (ETH_DMASR [2]) is set. The Start
Transmission command is effective only when transmission is stopped. If the command is
issued before setting the DMA ETH_DMATDLAR register, the DMA behavior is unpredictable.
When this bit is cleared, the transmission process is placed in the Stopped state after
completing the transmission of the current frame. The next descriptor position in the transmit
list is saved, and becomes the current position when transmission is restarted. The Stop
Transmission command is effective only when the transmission of the current frame is
complete or when the transmission is in the Suspended state.
Bits 12:8 Reserved
Bit 7 FEF: Forward error frames
When this bit is set, all frames except runt error frames are forwarded to the DMA.
When this bit is cleared, the Rx FIFO drops frames with error status (CRC error, collision error,
giant frame, watchdog timeout, overflow). However, if the frame’s start byte (write) pointer is
already transferred to the read controller side (in Threshold mode), then the frames are not
dropped. The Rx FIFO drops the error frames if that frame's start byte is not transferred
(output) on the ARI bus.
Bit 6 FUGF: Forward undersized good frames
When this bit is set, the Rx FIFO forwards undersized frames (frames with no error and length
less than 64 bytes) including pad-bytes and CRC).
When this bit is cleared, the Rx FIFO drops all frames of less than 64 bytes, unless such a
frame has already been transferred due to lower value of receive threshold (e.g., RTC = 01).

These two bits control the threshold level of the Receive FIFO. Transfer (request) to DMA

frames with a length less than the threshold are transferred automatically.
Note: Note that value of 11 is not applicable if the configured Receive FIFO size is 128 bytes.

Bit 2 OSF: Operate on second frame
When this bit is set, this bit instructs the DMA to process a second frame of Transmit data even
before status for first frame is obtained.
Bit 1 SR: Start/stop receive
When this bit is set, the receive process is placed in the Running state. The DMA attempts to
acquire the descriptor from the receive list and processes incoming frames. Descriptor
acquisition is attempted from the current position in the list, which is the address set by the
DMA ETH_DMARDLAR register or the position retained when the receive process was
previously stopped. If no descriptor is owned by the DMA, reception is suspended and the
receive buffer unavailable bit (ETH_DMASR [7]) is set. The Start Receive command is effective
only when reception has stopped. If the command was issued before setting the DMA
ETH_DMARDLAR register, the DMA behavior is unpredictable.
When this bit is cleared, RxDMA operation is stopped after the transfer of the current frame.
The next descriptor position in the receive list is saved and becomes the current position when
the receive process is restarted. The Stop Receive command is effective only when the
Receive process is in either the Running (waiting for receive packet) or the Suspended state.

microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
Medium-density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx
microcontrollers where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
High-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where the
Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
Connectivity line devices are STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx microcontrollers.
This Section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.
The electronic signature is stored in the System memory area in the Flash memory module,
and can be read using the JTAG/SWD or the CPU. It contains factory-programmed
identification data that allow the user firmware or other external devices to automatically
match its interface to the characteristics of the STM32F10xxx microcontroller.

28.2 Unique device ID register (96 bits)

The unique device identifier is ideally suited:
● for use as serial numbers (for example USB string serial numbers or other end
applications)
● for use as security keys in order to increase the security of code in Flash memory while
using and combining this unique ID with software cryptographic primitives and
protocols before programming the internal Flash memory
● to activate secure boot processes, etc.
The 96-bit unique device identifier provides a reference number which is unique for any
device and in any context. These bits can never be altered by the user.
The 96-bit unique device identifier can also be read in single bytes/half-words/words in
different ways and then be concatenated using a custom algorithm.

This Section applies to the whole STM32F10xxx family, unless otherwise specified.

29.1 Overview
The STM32F10xxx is built around a Cortex-M3 core which contains hardware extensions for
advanced debugging features. The debug extensions allow the core to be stopped either on
a given instruction fetch (breakpoint) or data access (watchpoint). When stopped, the core’s
internal state and the system’s external state may be examined. Once examination is
complete, the core and the system may be restored and program execution resumed.
The debug features are used by the debugger host when connecting to and debugging the
STM32F10xxx MCU.
Two interfaces for debug are available:
● Serial wire
● JTAG debug port

Note: The debug features embedded in the Cortex-M3 core are a subset of the ARM CoreSight
Design Kit.
The ARM Cortex-M3 core provides integrated on-chip debug support. It is comprised of:
● SWJ-DP: Serial wire / JTAG debug port
● AHP-AP: AHB access port
● ITM: Instrumentation trace macrocell
● FPB: Flash patch breakpoint
● DWT: Data watchpoint trigger
● TPUI: Trace port unit interface (available on larger packages, where the corresponding
pins are mapped)
● ETM: Embedded Trace Macrocell (available on larger packages, where the
corresponding pins are mapped)
It also includes debug features dedicated to STM32F10xxx:
● Flexible debug pinout assignment
● MCU debug box (support for low-power modes, control over peripheral clocks, etc.)
Note: For further information on debug functionality supported by the ARM Cortex-M3 core, refer
to the Cortex-M3-r1p1Technical Reference Manual (see Related documents on page 1) and
to the CoreSight Design Kit-r1p0TRM.

29.3 SWJ debug port (serial wire and JTAG)

The STM32F10xxx core integrates the Serial Wire / JTAG Debug Port (SWJ-DP). It is an
ARM standard CoreSight debug port that combines a JTAG-DP (5-pin) interface and a SW-
DP (2-pin) interface.
● The JTAG Debug Port (JTAG-DP) provides a 5-pin standard JTAG interface to the AHP-
AP port.
● The Serial Wire Debug Port (SW-DP) provides a 2-pin (clock + data) interface to the
AHP-AP port.
In the SWJ-DP, the two JTAG pins of the SW-DP are multiplexed with some of the five JTAG
pins of the JTAG-DP.

Figure 321 shows that the asynchronous TRACE output (TRACESWO) is multiplexed with
TDO. This means that the asynchronous trace can only be used with SW-DP, not JTAG-DP.

29.3.1 Mechanism to select the JTAG-DP or the SW-DP

By default, the JTAG-Debug Port is active.
If the debugger host wants to switch to the SW-DP, it must provide a dedicated JTAG
sequence on TMS/TCK (respectively mapped to SWDIO and SWCLK) which disables the

954/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Debug support (DBG)

JTAG-DP and enables the SW-DP. This way it is possible to activate the SWDP using only
the SWCLK and SWDIO pins.
This sequence is:
1. Send more than 50 TCK cycles with TMS (SWDIO) =1
2. Send the 16-bit sequence on TMS (SWDIO) = 0111100111100111 (MSB transmitted
first)
3. Send more than 50 TCK cycles with TMS (SWDIO) =1

29.4 Pinout and debug port pins

The STM32F10xxx MCU is available in various packages with different numbers of available
pins. As a result, some functionality related to pin availability may differ between packages.

29.4.1 SWJ debug port pins

Five pins are used as outputs from the STM32F10xxx for the SWJ-DP as alternate functions
of General Purpose I/Os. These pins are available on all packages.

29.4.2 Flexible SWJ-DP pin assignment

After RESET (SYSRESETn or PORESETn), all five pins used for the SWJ-DP are assigned
as dedicated pins immediately usable by the debugger host (note that the trace outputs are
not assigned except if explicitly programmed by the debugger host).
However, the STM32F10xxx MCU implements the AF remap and debug I/O configuration
register (AFIO_MAPR) register to disable some part or all of the SWJ-DP port and so
releases the associated pins for General Purpose I/Os usage. This register is mapped on an
APB bridge connected to the Cortex-M3 System Bus. Programming of this register is done
by the user software program and not the debugger host.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 955/995

Debug support (DBG) RM0008

Three control bits allow the configuration of the SWJ-DP pin assignments. These bits are
reset by the System Reset.
● AFIO_MAPR (@ 0x40010004 in STM32F10xxx MCU)
– READ: APB - No Wait State
– WRITE: APB - 1 Wait State if the write buffer of the AHB-APB bridge is full.
Bit 26:24= SWJ_CFG[2:0]
Set and cleared by software.
These bits are used to configure the number of pins assigned to the SWJ debug port.
The goal is to release as much as possible the number of pins to be used as General
Purpose I/Os if using a small size for the debug port.
The default state after reset is “000” (whole pins assigned for a full JTAG-DP
connection). Only one of the 3 bits can be set (it is forbidden to set more than one bit).

Note: When the APB bridge write buffer is full, it takes one extra APB cycle when writing the
AFIO_MAPR register. This is because the deactivation of the JTAGSW pins is done in two
cycles to guarantee a clean level on the nTRST and TCK input signals of the core.
● Cycle 1: the JTAGSW input signals to the core are tied to 1 or 0 (to 1 for nTRST, TDI
and TMS, to 0 for TCK)
● Cycle 2: the GPI/O controller takes the control signals of the SWJTAG I/O pins (like
controls of direction, pull-up/down, Schmitt trigger activation, etc.).

29.4.3 Internal pull-up and pull-down on JTAG pins

It is necessary to ensure that the JTAG input pins are not floating since they are directly
connected to flip-flops to control the debug mode features. Special care must be taken with
the SWCLK/TCK pin which is directly connected to the clock of some of these flip-flops.
To avoid any uncontrolled I/O levels, the STM32F10xxx embeds internal pull-ups and pull-
downs on JTAG input pins:
● JNTRST: Internal pull-up
● JTDI: Internal pull-up
● JTMS/SWDIO: Internal pull-up
● TCK/SWCLK: Internal pull-down

956/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Debug support (DBG)

Once a JTAG I/O is released by the user software, the GPIO controller takes control again.
The reset states of the GPIO control registers put the I/Os in the equivalent state:
● JNTRST: Input pull-up
● JTDI: Input pull-up
● JTMS/SWDIO: Input pull-up
● JTCK/SWCLK: Input pull-down
● JTDO: Input floating
The software can then use these I/Os as standard GPIOs.
Note: The JTAG IEEE standard recommends to add pull-ups on TDI, TMS and nTRST but there is
no special recommendation for TCK. However, for STM32F10xxx, an integrated pull-down is
used for JTCK.
Having embedded pull-ups and pull-downs removes the need to add external resistors.

29.4.4 Using serial wire and releasing the unused debug pins as GPIOs
To use the serial wire DP to release some GPIOs, the user software must set
SWJ_CFG=010 just after reset. This release PA15, PB3 and PB4 which now become
available as GPIOs.
When debugging, the host performs the following actions:
● Under system RESET, all SWJ pins are assigned (JTAG-DP + SW-DP)
● Under system RESET, the debugger host sends the JTAG sequence to switch from the
JTAG-DP to the SW-DP.
● Still under system RESET, the debugger sets a breakpoint on vector reset
● The System Reset is released and the Core halts.
● All the debug communications from this point are done using the SW-DP. The other
JTAG pins can then be reassigned as GPIOs by the user software.
Note: For user software designs, note that:
To release the debug pins, remember that they will be first configured either in input-pull-up
(nTRST, TMS, TDI) or pull-down (TCK) or output tristate (TDO) for a certain duration after
reset until the instant when the user software releases the pins.
When debug pins (JTAG or SW or TRACE) are mapped, changing the corresponding I/O pin
configuration in the IOPORT controller has no effect.

29.5 STM32F10xxx JTAG TAP connection

The STM32F10xxx MCU integrates two serially connected JTAG TAPs, the boundary scan
TAP (IR is 5-bit wide) and the Cortex-M3 TAP (IR is 4-bit wide).
To access the TAP of the Cortex-M3 for debug purposes:
1. First, it is necessary to shift the BYPASS instruction of the boundary scan TAP.
2. Then, for each IR shift, the scan chain contains 9 bits (=5+4) and the unused TAP
instruction must be shifted in using the BYPASS instruction.
3. For each data shift, the unused TAP, which is in BYPASS mode, adds 1 extra data bit in
the data scan chain.

29.6 ID codes and locking mechanism

There are several ID codes inside the STM32F10xxx MCU. ST strongly recommends tools
designers to lock their debuggers using the MCU DEVICE ID code located in the external
PPB memory map at address 0xE0042000.

29.6.1 MCU device ID code

The STM32F10xxx MCU integrates an MCU ID code. This ID identifies the ST MCU part-
number and the die revision. It is part of the DBG_MCU component and is mapped on the
external PPB bus (see Section 29.16 on page 971). This code is accessible using the JTAG
debug port (4 to 5 pins) or the SW debug port (two pins) or by the user software. It is even
accessible while the MCU is under system reset.

29.8 SW debug port

29.8.1 SW protocol introduction

This synchronous serial protocol uses two pins:
● SWCLK: clock from host to target
● SWDIO: bidirectional
The protocol allows two banks of registers (DPACC registers and APACC registers) to be
read and written to.
Bits are transferred LSB-first on the wire.
For SWDIO bidirectional management, the line must be pulled-up on the board (100 K
recommended by ARM).
Each time the direction of SWDIO changes in the protocol, a turnaround time is inserted
where the line is not driven by the host nor the target. By default, this turnaround time is one
bit time, however this can be adjusted by configuring the SWCLK frequency.

29.8.2 SW protocol sequence

Each sequence consist of three phases:
1. Packet request (8 bits) transmitted by the host
2. Acknowledge response (3 bits) transmitted by the target
3. Data transfer phase (33 bits) transmitted by the host or the target

29.8.3 SW-DP state machine (Reset, idle states, ID code)

The State Machine of the SW-DP has an internal ID code which identifies the SW-DP. It
follows the JEP-106 standard. This ID code is the default ARM one and is set at
0x1BA01477 (corresponding to Cortex-M3 r1p1).

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 963/995

Debug support (DBG) RM0008

Note: Note that the SW-DP state machine is inactive until the target reads this ID code.
● The SW-DP state machine is in RESET STATE either after power-on reset, or after the
DP has switched from JTAG to SWD or after the line is high for more than 50 cycles
● The SW-DP state machine is in IDLE STATE if the line is low for at least two cycles after
RESET state.
● After RESET state, it is mandatory to first enter into an IDLE state AND to perform a
READ access of the DP-SW ID CODE register. Otherwise, the target will issue a
FAULT acknowledge response on another transactions.
Further details of the SW-DP state machine can be found in the Cortex-M3 r1p1 TRM and
the CoreSight Design Kit r1p0 TRM.

29.8.4 DP and AP read/write accesses

● Read accesses to the DP are not posted: the target response can be immediate (if
ACK=OK) or can be delayed (if ACK=WAIT).
● Read accesses to the AP are posted. This means that the result of the access is
returned on the next transfer. If the next access to be done is NOT an AP access, then
the DP-RDBUFF register must be read to obtain the result.
The READOK flag of the DP-CTRL/STAT register is updated on every AP read access
or RDBUFF read request to know if the AP read access was successful.
● The SW-DP implements a write buffer (for both DP or AP writes), that enables it to
accept a write operation even when other transactions are still outstanding. If the write
buffer is full, the target acknowledge response is “WAIT”. With the exception of
IDCODE read or CTRL/STAT read or ABORT write which are accepted even if the write
buffer is full.
● Because of the asynchronous clock domains SWCLK and HCLK, two extra SWCLK
cycles are needed after a write transaction (after the parity bit) to make the write
effective internally. These cycles should be applied while driving the line low (IDLE
state)
This is particularly important when writing the CTRL/STAT for a power-up request. If the
next transaction (requiring a power-up) occurs immediately, it will fail.

29.10 Core debug

Core debug is accessed through the core debug registers. Debug access to these registers
is by means of the Advanced High-performance Bus (AHB-AP) port. The processor can
access these registers directly over the internal Private Peripheral Bus (PPB).
It consists of 4 registers:

RM0008 Debug support (DBG)

Note: Important: these registers are not reset by a system reset. They are only reset by a power-
on reset.
Refer to the Cortex-M3 r1p1 TRM for further details.
To Halt on reset, it is necessary to:
● enable the bit0 (VC_CORRESET) of the Debug and Exception Monitor Control
Register
● enable the bit0 (C_DEBUGEN) of the Debug Halting Control and Status Register.

29.11 Capability of the debugger host to connect under system

reset
The STM32F10xxx MCU reset system comprises the following reset sources:
● POR (power-on reset) which asserts a RESET at each power-up.
● Internal watchdog reset
● Software reset
● External reset
The Cortex-M3 differentiates the reset of the debug part (generally PORRESETn) and the
other one (SYSRESETn)
This way, it is possible for the debugger to connect under System Reset, programming the
Core Debug Registers to halt the core when fetching the reset vector. Then the host can
release the system reset and the core will immediately halt without having executed any
instructions. In addition, it is possible to program any debug features under System Reset.
Note: It is highly recommended for the debugger host to connect (set a breakpoint in the reset
vector) under system reset.

29.12 FPB (Flash patch breakpoint)

The FPB unit:
● implements hardware breakpoints
● patches code and data from code space to system space. This feature gives the
possibility to correct software bugs located in the Code Memory Space.
The use of a Software Patch or a Hardware Breakpoint is exclusive.
The FPB consists of:
● 2 literal comparators for matching against literal loads from Code Space and remapping
to a corresponding area in the System Space.
● 6 instruction comparators for matching against instruction fetches from Code Space.
They can be used either to remap to a corresponding area in the System Space or to
generate a Breakpoint Instruction to the core.

29.13 DWT (data watchpoint trigger)

The DWT unit consists of four comparators. They are configurable as:
● a hardware watchpoint or
● a trigger to an ETM or
● a PC sampler or
● a data address sampler.
The DWT also provides some means to give some profiling informations. For this, some
counters are accessible to give the number of:
● Clock cycle
● Folded instructions
● Load store unit (LSU) operations
● Sleep cycles
● CPI (clock per instructions)
● Interrupt overhead

29.14 ITM (instrumentation trace macrocell)

29.14.1 General description

The ITM is an application-driven trace source that supports printf style debugging to trace
Operating System (OS) and application events, and emits diagnostic system information.
The ITM emits trace information as packets which can be generated as:
● Software trace. Software can write directly to the ITM stimulus registers to emit
packets.
● Hardware trace. The DWT generates these packets, and the ITM emits them.
● Time stamping. Timestamps are emitted relative to packets. The ITM contains a 21-bit
counter to generate the timestamp. The Cortex-M3 clock or the bit clock rate of the
Serial Wire Viewer (SWV) output clocks the counter.
The packets emitted by the ITM are output to the TPIU (Trace Port Interface Unit). The
formatter of the TPIU adds some extra packets (refer to TPIU) and then output the complete
packets sequence to the debugger host.
The bit TRCEN of the Debug Exception and Monitor Control Register must be enabled
before you program or use the ITM.

29.14.2 Timestamp packets, synchronization and overflow packets

Timestamp packets encode timestamp information, generic control and synchronization. It
uses a 21-bit timestamp counter (with possible prescalers) which is reset at each time
stamp packet emission. This counter can be either clocked by the CPU clock or the SWV
clock.
A synchronization packet consists of 6 bytes equal to 0x80_00_00_00_00_00 which is
emitted to the TPIU as 00 00 00 00 00 80 (LSB emitted first).
A synchronization packet is a timestamp packet control. It is emitted at each DWT trigger.

968/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Debug support (DBG)

For this, the DWT must be configured to trigger the ITM: the bit CYCCNTENA (bit0) of the
DWT Control Register must be set. In addition, the bit2 (SYNCENA) of the ITM Trace
Control Register must be set.
Note: If the SYNENA bit is not set, the DWT generates Synchronization triggers to the TPIU which
will send only TPIU synchronization packets and not ITM synchronization packets.
An overflow packet consists is a special timestamp packets which indicates that data has
been written but the FIFO was full.

29.15 ETM (Embedded Trace Macrocell)

29.15.1 General description

The ETM enables the reconstruction of program execution. Data are traced using the Data
Watchpoint and Trace (DWT) component or the Instruction Trace Macrocell (ITM) whereas
instructions are traced using the Embedded Trace Macrocell (ETM).
The ETM transmits information as packets and is triggered by embedded ressources. These
ressources must be programmed independently and the trigger source is selected using the
Trigger Event Register (0xE0041008). An event could be a simple event (address match
from an address comparator) or a logic equation between 2 events. The trigger source is
one of the fourth comparators of the DWT module, The following events can be monitored:

The packets transmitted by the ETM are output to the TPIU (Trace Port Interface Unit). The
formatter of the TPIU adds some extra packets (refer to Section 29.17: TPIU (trace port
interface unit)) and then outputs the complete packet sequence to the debugger host.

29.16 MCU debug component (MCUDBG)

The MCU debug component helps the debugger provide support for:
● Low-power modes
● Clock control for timers, watchdog, I2C and bxCAN during a breakpoint
● Control of the trace pins assignment

29.16.1 Debug support for low-power modes

To enter low-power mode, the instruction WFI or WFE must be executed.
The MCU implements several low-power modes which can either deactivate the CPU clock
or reduce the power of the CPU.
The core does not allow FCLK or HCLK to be turned off during a debug session. As these
are required for the debugger connection, during a debug, they must remain active. The
MCU integrates special means to allow the user to debug software in low-power modes.

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 971/995

Debug support (DBG) RM0008

For this, the debugger host must first set some debug configuration registers to change the
low-power mode behavior:
● In Sleep mode, DBG_SLEEP bit of DBGMCU_CR register must be previously set by
the debugger. This will feed HCLK with the same clock that is provided to FCLK
(system clock previously configured by the software).
● In STOP mode, the bit DBG_STOP must be previously set by the debugger. This will
enable the internal RC oscillator clock to feed FCLK and HCLK in STOP mode.

29.16.2 Debug support for timers, watchdog, bxCAN and I2C

During a breakpoint, it is necessary to choose how the counter of timers and watchdog
should behave:
● they can continue to count inside a breakpoint. This is usually required when a PWM is
controlling a motor, for example.
● they can stop to count inside a breakpoint. This is required for watchdog purposes.
For the bxCAN, the user can choose to block the update of the receive register during a
breakpoint.
For the I2C, the user can choose to block the SMBUS timeout during a breakpoint.

29.16.3 Debug MCU configuration register

This register allows the configuration of the MCU under DEBUG. This concerns:
● Low-power mode support
● Timer and watchdog counters support
● bxCAN communication support
● Trace pin assignment
This DBGMCU_CR is mapped on the External PPB bus at address 0xE0042004
It is asynchronously reset by the PORESET (and not the system reset). It can be written by
the debugger under system reset.
If the debugger host does not support these features, it is still possible for the user software
to write to these registers.

Bit 2 DBG_STANDBY: Debug Standby mode

0: (FCLK=Off, HCLK=Off) The whole digital part is unpowered.
From software point of view, exiting from Standby is identical than fetching reset vector
(except a few status bit indicated that the MCU is resuming from Standby)
1: (FCLK=On, HCLK=On) In this case, the digital part is not unpowered and FCLK and
HCLK are provided by the internal RC oscillator which remains active. In addition, the MCU

fetching from reset
Bit 1 DBG_STOP: Debug Stop mode
0: (FCLK=Off, HCLK=Off) In STOP mode, the clock controller disables all clocks (including
HCLK and FCLK). When exiting from STOP mode, the clock configuration is identical to the
one after RESET (CPU clocked by the 8 MHz internal RC oscillator (HSI)). Consequently,
the software must reprogram the clock controller to enable the PLL, the Xtal, etc.
1: (FCLK=On, HCLK=On) In this case, when entering STOP mode, FCLK and HCLK are
provided by the internal RC oscillator which remains active in STOP mode. When exiting
STOP mode, the software must reprogram the clock controller to enable the PLL, the Xtal,
etc. (in the same way it would do in case of DBG_STOP=0)
Bit 0 DBG_SLEEP: Debug Sleep mode
0: (FCLK=On, HCLK=Off) In Sleep mode, FCLK is clocked by the system clock as previously
configured by the software while HCLK is disabled.
In Sleep mode, the clock controller configuration is not reset and remains in the previously
programmed state. Consequently, when exiting from Sleep mode, the software does not
need to reconfigure the clock controller.
1: (FCLK=On, HCLK=On) In this case, when entering Sleep mode, HCLK is fed by the same
clock that is provided to FCLK (system clock as previously configured by the software).

29.17 TPIU (trace port interface unit)

29.17.1 Introduction
The TPIU acts as a bridge between the on-chip trace data from the ITM and the ETM.
The output data stream encapsulates the trace source ID, that is then captured by a Trace
Port Analyzer (TPA).
The core embeds a simple TPIU, especially designed for low-cost debug (consisting of a
special version of the CoreSight TPIU).

● Synchronous mode
The synchronous mode requires from 2 to 6 extra pins depending on the data trace
size and is only available in the larger packages. In addition it is available in JTAG mode
and in Serial Wire mode and provides better bandwidth output capabilities than
asynchronous trace.

TPUI TRACE pin assignment

By default, these pins are NOT assigned. They can be assigned by setting the
TRACE_IOEN and TRACE_MODE bits in the MCU Debug component configuration
register. This configuration has to be done by the debugger host.
In addition, the number of pins to assign depends on the trace configuration (asynchronous
or synchronous).
● Asynchronous mode: 1 extra pin is needed
● Synchronous mode: from 2 to 5 extra pins are needed depending on the size of the
data trace port register (1, 2 or 4):
– TRACECK
– TRACED(0) if port size is configured to 1, 2 or 4
– TRACED(1) if port size is configured to 2 or 4
– TRACED(2) if port size is configured to 4
– TRACED(3) if port size is configured to 4
To assign the TRACE pin, the debugger host must program the bits TRACE_IOEN and
TRACE_MODE[1:0] of the Debug MCU configuration Register (DBGMCU_CR). By default
the TRACE pins are not assigned.
This register is mapped on the external PPB and is reset by the PORESET (and not by the
SYSTEM reset). It can be written by the debugger under SYSTEM reset.

Note: By default, the TRACECLKIN input clock of the TPIU is tied to GND. It is assigned to HCLK
two clock cycles after the bit TRACE_IOEN has been set.

976/995 Doc ID 13902 Rev 9

RM0008 Debug support (DBG)

The debugger must then program the Trace Mode by writing the PROTOCOL[1:0] bits in the
SPP_R (Selected Pin Protocol) register of the TPIU.
● PROTOCOL=00: Trace Port Mode (synchronous)
● PROTOCOL=01 or 10: Serial Wire (Manchester or NRZ) Mode (asynchronous mode).
Default state is 01
It then also configures the TRACE port size by writing the bits [3:0] in the CPSPS_R
(Current Sync Port Size Register) of the TPIU:
● 0x1 for 1 pin (default state)
● 0x2 for 2 pins
● 0x8 for 4 pins

29.17.3 TPUI formatter

The formatter protocol outputs data in 16-byte frames:
● seven bytes of data
● eight bytes of mixed-use bytes consisting of:
– 1 bit (LSB) to indicate it is a DATA byte (‘0’) or an ID byte (‘1’).
– 7 bits (MSB) which can be data or change of source ID trace.
● one byte of auxiliary bits where each bit corresponds to one of the eight mixed-use
bytes:
– if the corresponding byte was a data, this bit gives bit0 of the data.
– if the corresponding byte was an ID change, this bit indicates when that ID change
takes effect.
Note: Refer to the ARM CoreSight Architecture Specification v1.0 (ARM IHI 0029B) for further
information

29.17.4 TPUI frame synchronization packets

The TPUI can generate two types of synchronization packets:
● The Frame Synchronization packet (or Full Word Synchronization packet)
It consists of the word: 0x7F_FF_FF_FF (LSB emitted first). This sequence can not
occur at any other time provided that the ID source code 0x7F has not been used.
It is output periodically between frames.
In continuous mode, the TPA must discard all these frames once a synchronization
frame has been found.
● The Half-Word Synchronization packet
It consists of the half word: 0x7F_FF (LSB emitted first).
It is output periodically between or within frames.
These packets are only generated in continuous mode and enable the TPA to detect
that the TRACE port is in IDLE mode (no TRACE to be captured). When detected by
the TPA, it must be discarded.

29.17.5 Transmission of the synchronization frame packet

There is no Synchronization Counter register implemented in the TPIU of the core.
Consequently, the synchronization trigger can only be generated by the DWT. Refer to the

Doc ID 13902 Rev 9 977/995

Debug support (DBG) RM0008

registers DWT Control Register (bits SYNCTAP[11:10]) and the DWT Current PC Sampler
Cycle Count Register.
The TPUI Frame synchronization packet (0x7F_FF_FF_FF) is emitted:
● after each TPIU reset release. This reset is synchronously released with the rising
edge of the TRACECLKIN clock. This means that this packet is transmitted when the
TRACE_IOEN bit in the DBGMCU_CFG register is set. In this case, the word
0x7F_FF_FF_FF is not followed by any formatted packet.
● at each DWT trigger (assuming DWT has been previously configured). Two cases
occur:
– If the bit SYNENA of the ITM is reset, only the word 0x7F_FF_FF_FF is emitted
without any formatted stream which follows.
– If the bit SYNENA of the ITM is set, then the ITM synchronization packets will
follow (0x80_00_00_00_00_00), formatted by the TPUI (trace source ID added).

29.17.6 Synchronous mode

The trace data output size can be configured to 4, 2 or 1 pin: TRACED(3:0)
The output clock is output to the debugger (TRACECK)
Here, TRACECLKIN is driven internally and is connected to HCLK only when TRACE is
used.
Note: In this synchronous mode, it is not required to provide a stable clock frequency.
The TRACE I/Os (including TRACECK) are driven by the rising edge of TRACLKIN (equal to
HCLK). Consequently, the output frequency of TRACECK is equal to HCLK/2.

29.17.7 Asynchronous mode

This is a low cost alternative to output the trace using only 1 pin: this is the asynchronous
output pin TRACESWO. Obviously there is a limited bandwidth.
TRACESWO is multiplexed with JTDO when using the SW-DP pin. This way, this
functionality is available in all STM32F10xxx packages.
This asynchronous mode requires a constant frequency for TRACECLKIN. For the standard
UART (NRZ) capture mechanism, 5% accuracy is needed. The Manchester encoded
version is tolerant up to 10%.

29.17.8 TRACECLKIN connection inside STM32F10xxx

In STM32F10xxx, this TRACECLKIN input is internally connected to HCLK. This means that
when in asynchronous trace mode, the application is restricted to use to time frames where
the CPU frequency is stable.
Note: Important: when using asynchronous trace: it is important to be aware that:
The default clock of the STM32F10xxx MCU is the internal RC oscillator. Its frequency
under reset is different from the one after reset release. This is because the RC calibration is
the default one under system reset and is updated at each system reset release.
Consequently, the Trace Port Analyzer (TPA) should not enable the trace (with the
TRACE_IOEN bit) under system reset, because a Synchronization Frame Packet will be
issued with a different bit time than trace packets which will be transmitted after reset
release.

29.17.9 TPIU registers

The TPIU APB registers can be read and written only if the bit TRCENA of the Debug
