8-bit Synchronous Mode
Figure 5-39. 8-bit Synchronous Mode
In the 8-bit synchronous mode, the SSI can operate as either a 2- or 3-wire interface (see sec-
tion “SSI Peripheral Configuration”). The serial data (SD) is received or transmitted in NRZ
format, synchronized to either the rising or falling edge of the shift clock (SC). The choice of
clock edge is defined by the Serial Mode Control bits (SM0,SM1). It should be noted that the
transmission edge refers to the SC clock edge with which the SD changes. To avoid clock skew
problems, the incoming serial input data is shifted in with the opposite edge.
When used together with one of the timer modulator or demodulator stages, the SSI must be set
in the 8-bit synchronous mode 1.
In RX mode, as soon as the SSI is activated (SIR = 0), 8 shift clocks are generated and the
incoming serial data is shifted into the shift register. This first telegram is automatically trans-
ferred into the receive buffer and the SRDY set to 0 indicating that the receive buffer contains
valid data. At the same time an interrupt (if enabled) is generated. The SSI then continues shift-
ing in the following 8-bit telegram. If, during this time the first telegram has been read by the
controller, the second telegram will also be transferred in the same way into the receive buffer
and the SSI will continue clocking in the next telegram. Should, however, the first telegram not
have been read (SRDY = 1), then the SSI will stop, temporarily holding the second telegram in
the shift register until a certain point of time when the controller is able to service the receive
buffer. In this way no data is lost or overwritten.
Deactivating the SSI (SIR = 1) in mid-telegram will immediately stop the shift clock and latch the
present contents of the shift register into the receive buffer. This can be used for clocking in a
data telegram of less than 8 bits in length. Care should be taken to read out the final complete
8-bit data telegram of a multiple word message before deactivating the SSI (SIR = 1) and termi-
nating the reception. After termination, the shift register contents will overwrite the receive
buffer.
