MPC5746R eTPU to UART data transfer

ceciliac — Fri, 18 May 2018 14:21:48 GMT

Hi,

I want to periodically transfer data from the eTPU to UART via DMA, every 100us it should transfer 8 bytes. I have tried the following approaches:

1) NBYTES = 1, CITER/BITER = 8. The problem here is that the DMARequest from the eTPU only triggers one iteration of the major loop so only one byte is sent.

2) NBYTES = 8, CITER/BITER = 1. With this test the data seems to be overwritten and not everything is sent. Which I'm guessing is because the Tx FIFO only has room for 4 bytes

3) NBYTES = 3, CITER/BITER = 1. This acutally works, all data is sent, but I really want to send 8 bytes....

Does anyone have any idea or example on how to make this work??

Thanks,

Cecilia

I think you need to be using the UART TXFIFO empty to trigger the DMA action, once the eTPU has initiated the DMA transfer.

Not sure which register to adjust to accomplish that, I have the following setting for UART and DMA:

// Baud rate = 2Mb/s
LINFlexD_0.LINIBRR.B.IBR = 3;
LINFlexD_0.LINFBRR.B.FBR = 1;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.UART = 1;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.RFBM = 1;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.TFBM = 1;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.OSR = 0;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.ROSE = 0;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.DTU_PCETX = 0;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.SBUR = 0;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.WL1 = 0;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.WL0 = 1;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.PCE = 0;
LINFlexD_0.UARTCR.B.TxEn = 1;
LINFlexD_0.DMATXE.R = 1;

__attribute__(( aligned(32) )) DMA_TCD_Struct etpu_rs485_tcd = {
(vuint32_t)(uint32_t *)((uint32_t)fs_etpu_data_ram_start + (eTPU->CHAN[70].CR.B.CPBA<<3) + _CPBA_ARRAY_Sensor_rs485Out_),
0x00, /*SMOD*/
0x00, /*SSIZE*/
0x00, /*DMOD*/
0x00, /*DSIZE*/
1, /*SOFF*/
1, /*NBYTES*/
-8, /*SLAST*/
((vuint32_t)&LINFlexD_0.BDRL.R) + 3, /*DADDR*/
0x00, /*CITERE_LINK*/
8, /*CITER*/
0, /*DOFF*/
0, /*DLAST_SGA*/
0x00, /*BITERE_LINK*/

Check the DMA MUX chapter and section 19.1.3

Linflex_0 TX is source 10 and can be used with DMA channels 0-15

or source 44 and can be used with DMA channels 32-63

I guess that currently you are using a source between 21 and 43 ?

I'm not using structs for my DMA configuration and don't have a 70th eTPU channel? So I don't quite follow that part of your code.

The etpu B channels actually starts at eTPU->CHAN[64], so number 70 is eTPU_B_6 (not really clear in the manual..).

Your response got me thinking...since I am using a DMARequest from the eTPU that DMA channel is configured in the MUX as eTPU. So what I have done now is to create a channel linking between the etpu DMA channel to a DMA channel configured for LinFlex_0. Unfortunately it behaves exactly the same way, only 8 bits are sent per etpu request. Also the setting of LINFlexD_0.DMATXE.R does not seem to matter () which suggests there is something wrong with the configuration.

According to the manual "A DMA request is triggered by FIFO-not-full (TX) status signals." but it seems it is never triggered.

Hi,

just a quick hint - if you want to trigger transferring of 8 bytes on serial interface using one trigger from ETPU, you need to use two DMA channels. Configure one channel to send 8 bytes using trigger TXFIFO empty. This channel will be enabled by second channel - configure second channel (triggered by ETPU) to simply write to DMA_SERQ register to enable hardware trigger for first channel.

Lukas

I have channel linking between the etpu DMA channel and the one configured for UART. However only 1 byte is sent for every request, to send all 8 bytes I need to call the DMARequest from the eTPU 8 times. There must be some additional configuration required for enabling the TxFifo empty trigger !!??

Thanks, Cecilia
