Serial Ports
Mode Selection
The serial port operating mode can be selected via the SPCTLx and the
SPMCTLx/y registers.
1. The operating mode bit 11 (OPMODE) of the SPCTLx register selects
between I
2
S, left-justified, and standard serial/multichannel mode.
2. The operating mode bit 17 (OPMODE) of the SPCTLx register selects
between I
2
S mode and left-justified mode.
3. For packed mode, bit 11 (OPMODE) of the SPCTLx register and bit 0
(MCEA) in the SPMCTLx register enables the A channels and bit 23
(MCEB) in the SPMCTLx register enables the B channels.
4. In multichannel mode, the bit 0 (MCEA) in the SPMCTLx register
enables the A channels and the bit 23 (
MCEB) in the SPMCTLx register
enables the B channels.
5. The
OPMODE bit 17 serves for standard serial mode as late frame sync
bit (
LAFS).
The
SPCTLx register is unique in that the name and functionality of its bits
changes depending on the operation mode selected. In each section that
follows, the bit names associated with the operating modes are described.
Table 10-7 provides values for each of the bits in the SPORT serial
