3.1.2Bulk Transactions
3.1.2.1Peripheral Mode: Bulk In Transactions
A Bulk IN transaction is used to transfer
The following optional features are available for use with a Tx endpoint used in peripheral mode for Bulk IN transactions:
∙Double packet buffering: When enabled, up to two packets can be stored in the FIFO awaiting transmission to the host. Double packet buffering is enabled by setting the DPB bit of TXFIFOSZ register (bit 4).
∙DMA: If DMA is enabled for the endpoint, a DMA request will be generated whenever the endpoint is able to accept another packet in its FIFO. This feature allows the DMA controller to load packets into the FIFO without processor intervention.
When DMA is enabled and DMAMODE bit of PERI_TXCSR is set, an endpoint interrupt is not generated for completion of the packet transfer. An endpoint interrupt is generated only in the error conditions.
3.1.2.1.1Setup
In configuring a TX endpoint for bulk transactions, the TXMAXP register must be written with the maximum packet size (in bytes) for the endpoint. This value should be the same as the wMaxPacketSize field of the Standard Endpoint Descriptor for the endpoint and the PERI_TXCSR register should be set as shown in Table 2:
Table 2. PERI_TXCSR Register Bit Configuration for Bulk IN Transactions
Bit Position | Bit Field Name | Configuration |
Bit 14 | ISO | Cleared to 0 for bulk mode operation |
Bit 13 | MODE | Set to 1 to make sure the FIFO is enabled (only necessary if the FIFO is shared with an RX |
|
| endpoint) |
Bit 12 | DMAEN | Set to 1 if DMA requests must be enabled |
Bit 11 | FRCDATATOG | Cleared to 0 to allow normal data toggle operations |
Bit 10 | DMAMODE | Set to 1 when DMA is enabled and EP interrupt is not needed for each packet transmission |
When the endpoint is first configured (following a SET_CONFIGURATION or SET_INTERFACE command on Endpoint 0), the lower byte of PERI_TXCSR should be written to set the CLRDATATOG bit (bit 6). This will ensure that the data toggle (which is handled automatically by the controller) starts in the correct state.
Also if there are any data packets in the FIFO (indicated by the FIFONOTEMPTY bit (bit 1 of
PERI_TXCSR) being set), they should be flushed by setting the FLUSHFIFO bit (bit 3 of PERI_TXCSR).
Note: It may be necessary to set this bit twice in succession if double buffering is enabled.
