2.1 and 2.0

If DMA Channel 0 is configured to perform a multiframe split-mode transfer, it is possible for the last element of the last frame of the Receive Read to not be transferred. After the last element of the last frame of the Transmit Write Transfer, the element count is reloaded into the Channel 0 Transfer Counter Register, which may allow for the Transmit Read Transfer to be initiated. If the read synchronization and write synchronization are far enough apart in CPU cycles, then it is possible for the DMA to hang (due to the Transmit Read) before the Receive Write gets its sync event and completes the transmission. (Internal reference number 0558)

If a multiframe split-mode transfer is required, use DMA channel 1, 2, or 3.

Timer Clock Output Not Driven for External Clock

2.1 and 2.0

When FUNC = 1 (TOUT is a timer pin), if CLKSRC = 0 (external clock source), the TOUT pin is not driven with TSTAT. The timer still functions correctly, but the output is not seen externally. (Internal reference number 0568)

None. Timer functions correctly.

Power-Down Pin PD Not Set High for Power-Down 2 Mode

2.1 and 2.0

The power-down pin, PD, only goes high (active) in power-down mode 3, not in power-down mode 2. (Internal reference number 0537)

None. Power-down modes function correctly.

EMIF: RBTR8 Bit Not Functional

2.1 and 2.0

If RBTR8=1, a requester with continuous requests will not relinquish control of the EMIF even to a higher-priority requester. (Internal reference number 0432)

Leave RBTR8 set to the default of 0.
