27.6 Message Interface Register Sets
Accesses to the Message RAM are performed via the Interface Register sets:
• Interface Register 1 and 2 (IF1 and IF2)
• Interface Register 3 (IF3)
The IF3 register set can be configured to automatically receive control and user data from the Message
RAM when a message object has been updated after reception of a CAN message. The CPU does not
need to initiate the transfer from Message RAM to IF3 register set.
The Message Handler avoids potential conflicts between concurrent accesses to Message RAM and CAN
frame reception/transmission.
There are two modes where the Message RAM can be directly accessed by the CPU:
1. In Debug/Suspend mode (see Section 27.5.3)
2. In RAM Direct Access (RDA) mode (see Section 27.5.4)
For the Message RAM Base address, refer to the device datasheet.
A complete message object (see Section 27.5.1) or parts of the message object may be transferred
between the Message RAM and the IF1/IF2 Register set (see Section 27.17.24) in one single transfer.
27.6.1 Message Interface Register Sets 1 and 2
The Interface Register sets IF1 and IF2 provide indirect read/write access from the CPU to the Message
RAM. The IF1 and IF2 register sets can buffer control and user data to be transferred to and from the
message objects.
