S32K311 UART Timeout

[kiran5]

Hi NXP Team,

I am using S32k311 MCU board UART peripheral for LIN communication.

I would like to use the timeout functionality in the UART peripheral.

In my application i am using 19200 baud rate. 

My LIN frame consists of a header, 8 byte data and Checksum.

After receiving the first byte i want to start the timeout value till i receive checksum.

As i have configured 19200 as baud rate the total time for receiving the complete frame till checksum will be 4680 microseconds.

9 bytes ( 8 data bytes and one checksum). Each bit is 52 microseconds and each byte as 10 bits. so total time is 4680 micro seconds.

This is the configuration i am doing.

LIN_REG.TOCR.B.TOIE = 1; //timeout 0 interrupt enable
LIN_REG.TOSR.B.TOF = 1; // Clear interrupt flag
LIN_REG.TIMEOUT[0].B.CFG = 3; //reset the timeout count to 1
/* Set the timeout value */
LIN_REG.TIMEOUT[0].B.TIMEOUT = 8000;// timeout value
/* Enable the TIMEOUT0 counter */
LIN_REG.TOCR.B.TOEN = 1;

I would like to know how the timeout value is to be written in the LIN_REG.TIMEOUT[0].B.TIMEOUT register. for 4680 micro seconds what value should be written or how it should be configured.

Thanks

Kiran

Hi,

timeout counter monitors idle time in number of bits. So if 9 bytes should be checked, then LIN_REG.TIMEOUT[0].B.TIMEOUT should be min 90. Probably little bit more assuming there can be any additional inter-byte space in LIN frame. 
You need to set the extended idle feature for this mode as well, configuring REIR register. This must be greater then configured timeout.
