K60 Flexcan maximum mailboxes available

juanandujar — Thu, 19 Feb 2015 13:52:16 GMT

Hello,

I would like to know the mailboxes available in the K60FX512. I set up the register CAN1_MCR |= CAN_MCR_MAXMB(31) and also the interrupt bits into the register CAN_IMASK1 for the 31 mailboxes . However, when the bit 16 of this register is enabled, it remains in 0. I have tried to find out the maximum of mailboxes available on this microcontroller but I have not been able to find out it.

If 16 (from 0 to 15) mailboxes are enabled, everything works properly, getting the interrupt flags.

Best Regards.

Hello Juan,

Unfortunately there is not an api in order to know the mailboxes available, however you can use the below functions:

the FLEXCAN_Int_status() function. This function returns the interrupt status of the specified FlexCAN module based on the value of ERRSTAT register.

Return Value

• FLEXCAN_OK (success)

• FLEXCAN_INVALID_ADDRESS (wrong device number)

• FLEXCAN_TX_RX_INT (any message buffer interrupt pending)

• FLEXCAN_ERROR_INT (error interrupt pending)

• FLEXCAN_BUSOFF_INT (bus off interrupt pending)

• FLEXCAN_WAKEUP_INT (wake up interrupt pending)

Example

/* get interrupt status */

uint32_t result = FLEXCAN_Int_status(0);

The FLEXCAN_Tx_mailbox() function.This function transmits message once. The mailbox must already be set up. The length of the input data buffer must correspond to the mailbox data length.

Return Value

• FLEXCAN_OK (success)

• FLEXCAN_INVALID_ADDRESS (wrong device number)

• FLEXCAN_INVALID_MAILBOX (wrong message buffer number)

Example

/* send data using message buffer 15 */

uint32_t result = FLEXCAN_Tx_mailbox(0,15,data_ptr);

The FLEXCAN_Rx_mailbox() function. This function receives data from a given message buffer. User should check the error codes for appropriate

handling. The mailbox is again activated and prepared for further receiving.

Return Value

• FLEXCAN_OK (data received, success)

• FLEXCAN_MESSAGE_BUSY (data received, but the state was busy)

• FLEXCAN_MESSAGE_LOST (data received, but one or more messages were lost)

• FLEXCAN_INVALID_ADDRESS (wrong device number)

• FLEXCAN_INVALID_MAILBOX (wrong message buffer number)

• FLEXCAN_NO_MESSAGE (mailbox is empty)

Example

/* receive data from message buffer 15 */

uint32_t result = FLEXCAN_Rx_mailbox(0,15,data_ptr);

Please find more information in the Freescale MQX™ I/O Drivers – User Guide (chapter 17) that you can find at the next path: C:\Freescale\Freescale_MQX_4_1\doc\mqx

Have a great day,
Sol
