Transmitter behavior in the case of errors
The under-run condition (TXUND interrupt) may happen by accident and in this case, the
UCPD is starved of (the correct) Tx payload and is not able to complete the Tx message
correctly. This is a serious error (for this to happen the software fails to respond in time). As
a result the hardware ensures the CRC is incorrect at the end of the message, thus
guaranteeing the message to be discarded at the receiver.
38.4.5 UCPD BMC receiver
The UCPD BMC receiver performs:
• Clock recovery
• Preamble detection / timing derivation
• BMC decoding
• 4b5b decoding
• K-code ordered set recognition
• CRC checking
• SOP detection
• EOP detection
The receiver is activated as soon as the UCPD peripheral is enabled (via UCPDEN), but it
waits for an idle CC line state before attempting to receive a message.
The following figure shows the UCPD BMC receiver high-level architecture.

CRC checker
The received bits are fed into a CRC checker which evolves a 32-bit state during the
received the payload bitstream. At the end the 32 bits of the CRC also fed into the logic
