SPORT Controllers
The primary and secondary data pins, if enabled by the port configura-
tion, provide a method to increase the data throughput of the serial port.
They do not behave as totally separate SPORTs; rather, they operate in a
synchronous manner (sharing clock and frame sync) but on separate data.
The data received on the primary and secondary signals is interleaved in
main memory and can be retrieved by setting a stride in the Data Address
Generators (DAG) unit. For more information about DAGs, see the
“Data Address Generators” chapter in the Blackfin Processor Programming
Reference. Similarly, for TX, data should be written to the TX register in
an alternating manner—first primary, then secondary, then primary, then
secondary, and so on. This is easily accomplished with the processor’s
powerful DAGs.
In addition to the serial clock signal, data must be signalled by a frame
synchronization signal. The framing signal can occur either at the begin-
ning of an individual word or at the beginning of a block of words.
shows a possible port connection for the SPORTs. Note serial
devices A and B must be synchronous, as they share common frame syncs
and clocks. The same is true for serial devices C and D.
