23.11 BISYNC Mode Register (PSMR)

The PSMR is used as the BISYNC mode register, shown in Figure23-5. PSMR[RBCS, RTR, RPM, TPM]

can be modified on-the-fly.

Table23-10 describes PSMR fields.

Table23-8. Transmit Errors

Error Description
Transmitter
Underrun
The channel stops sending the buffer, closes it, sets TxBD[UN], and generates aTXE interrupt if it
is enabled. The channel resumes transmission after a RESTART TRANSMIT command is received.
Underrun cannot occur between frames or during a DLE–
XXX
pair in transparent mode.
CTS Lost during
Message
Transmission
The channel stops sending the buffer, closes it, sets TxBD[CT], and generates a TXE interrupt if not
masked. Transmission resumes when a RESTART TRANSMIT command is received.

Table23-9. Receive Errors

Error Description
Overrun The controller maintains a receiver FIFO for receiving data. The CP begins programming the SDMA
channel (if the buffer is in external memory) and updating the CRC when the first byte is received in
the Rx FIFO. If an Rx FIFO overrun occurs, the controller writes the received byte over the previously
received byte. The previous character and its status bits are lost. The channel then closes the buffer,
sets RxBD[OV], and generates the RXB interrupt if it is enabled. Finally, the receiver enters hunt
mode.
CD Lost during
Message
Reception
The channel stops receiving, closes the buffer, sets RxBD[CD], and generates the RXB interrupt if
not masked. This error has the highest priority. If the rest of the message is lost, no other errors are
checked in the message. The receiver immediately enters hunt mode.
Parity The channel writes the received character to the buffer and sets RxBD[PR]. The channel stops
receiving, closes the buffer, sets RxBD[PR], and generates the RXB interrupt if it is enabled. The
channel also increments PAREC and the receiver immediately enters hunt mode.
CRC The channel updates the CR bit in the BD every time a character is received with a byte delay of
eight serial clocks between the status update and the CRC calculation. When control character
recognition is used to detect the end of the block and cause CRC checking, the channel closes the
buffer, sets the CR bit in the BD, and generates the RXB interrupt if it is enabled.
