Frame Sync Options
Framing signals indicate the beginning of each serial word transfer. The
framing signals for each SPORT are
TFS
(transmit frame synchronization)
and
RFS
(receive frame synchronization). A variety of framing options are
available; these options are configured in the SPORT control registers.
The
TFS
and
RFS
signals of a SPORT are independent and are separately
configured in the control registers.
Framed Versus Unframed
The use of multiple frame sync signals is optional in SPORT communica-
tions. The
TFSR
(transmit frame sync required) and
RFSR
(receive frame
sync required) control bits determine whether frame sync signals are
required. These bits are located in the
SPORTx_TX_CONFIG
and
SPORTx_RX_CONFIG
registers.
When
TFSR
=
1
or
RFSR
=
1
, a frame sync signal is required for every data
word. To allow continuous transmitting by the SPORT, each new data
word must be loaded into the
SPORTx_TX
buffer before the previous word
is shifted out and transmitted.
“Data Independent Transmit Frame Sync”
on page 11-59
.
When
TFSR
=
0
or
RFSR
=
0
, the corresponding frame sync signal is not
required. A single frame sync is needed to initiate communications but is
ignored after the first bit is transferred. Data words are then transferred
continuously, unframed.
When DMA is enabled in this mode, with frame syncs not
required, DMA requests may be held off by chaining or may not be
serviced frequently enough to guarantee continuous unframed data
flow.
