30.5 Pin Name List
30.6 Product Dependencies
30.6.1 I/O Lines
The pins used for interfacing the compliant external devices may be multiplexed with PIO lines.
Before using the SSC receiver, the PIO controller must be configured to dedicate the SSC
receiver I/O lines to the SSC peripheral mode.
Before using the SSC transmitter, the PIO controller must be configured to dedicate the SSC
transmitter I/O lines to the SSC peripheral mode.
30.6.2 Power Management
The SSC is not continuously clocked. The SSC interface may be clocked through the Power
Management Controller (PMC), therefore the programmer must first configure the PMC to
enable the SSC clock.
30.6.3 Interrupt
The SSC interface has an interrupt line connected to the Nested Vector Interrupt Controller
(NVIC). Handling interrupts requires programming the NVIC before configuring the SSC. All
SSC interrupts can be enabled/disabled configuring the SSC Interrupt mask register. Each
pending and unmasked SSC interrupt will assert the SSC interrupt line. The SSC interrupt ser-
vice routine can get the interrupt origin by reading the SSC interrupt status register.
