Bits 4:2 – MODE[2:0]: Operating Mode
These bits must be written to 0x04 to select the I
2
C slave serial communication interface of the SERCOM.
These bits are not synchronized.
Bit 1 – ENABLE: Enable
Due to synchronization, there is delay from writing CTRLA.ENABLE until the peripheral is enabled/
disabled. The value written to CTRL.ENABLE will read back immediately and the Enable Synchronization
Busy bit in the Synchronization Busy register (SYNCBUSY.ENABLE) will be set. SYNCBUSY.ENABLE
will be cleared when the operation is complete.
This bit is not enable-protected.
Value
Description
0
The peripheral is disabled or being disabled.
1
The peripheral is enabled.
Bit 0 – SWRST: Software Reset
Writing '0' to this bit has no effect.
Writing '1' to this bit resets all registers in the SERCOM, except DBGCTRL, to their initial state, and the
SERCOM will be disabled.
Writing '1' to CTRLA.SWRST will always take precedence, meaning that all other writes in the same write-
operation will be discarded. Any register write access during the ongoing reset will result in an APB error.
Reading any register will return the reset value of the register.
Due to synchronization, there is a delay from writing CTRLA.SWRST until the reset is complete.
CTRLA.SWRST and SYNCBUSY.SWRST will both be cleared when the reset is complete.
This bit is not enable-protected.
Value
Description
0
There is no reset operation ongoing.
1
The reset operation is ongoing.
