Texas Instruments (TI) designs and manufactures analog and digital semiconductor IC products for the world market. In addition to analog technologies, digital signal processing (DSP) and microcontroller (MCU) semiconductors, TI designs and manufactures semiconductor solutions for analog and digital ...
A field that specifies the timer divide-down ratio (period) for the on-chip timer. When the timer prescaler counter (PSC) is decremented past 0, the PSC is loaded with the contents of the TDDR. At reset, TDDR = 0000. These bits are stored in the timer control register (TCR).
Industry:Semiconductors
A shell utility that invokes the multimedia video processor (MVP) master processor compiler, assembler, and linker to create an executable object file version of your master processor program.
Industry:Semiconductors
A field that specifies the word length of the serial port transmitter and receiver. The data is transferred with the most significant bit (MSB) first. At reset, FO = 0. This bit is stored in the serial port control register (SPC) and TDM serial port control register (TSPC).
Industry:Semiconductors
A shell utility that invokes the multimedia video processor’s (MVP’s) parallel processor compiler, assembler, and linker to create an executable object file version of your parallel processor program.
Industry:Semiconductors
A field that specifies whether frame synchronisation pulses (FSX and FSR) are required for serial port operation. At reset, FSM = 0. This bit is stored in the serial port control register (SPC) and TDM serial port control register (TSPC).
Industry:Semiconductors
A shift register made up of the logic storage elements (standalone bit-storage devices). In test mode, the storage elements are connected in a shift register. During normal operation they carry out their normal system functions. The scan path is used to shift test data into the logic storage elements for controllability and to shift out test response data for observability. (Also called scan path.)
Industry:Semiconductors
A field used in conjunction with the format (FO) bit to specify the word length of the buffered serial port (BSP) transmitter and receiver. When FO = FE = 00, the format is 16-bit words; when FO = FE = 01, the format is 10-bit words; when FO = FE = 10, the format is 8-bit words; and when FO = FE = 11, the format is 12-bit words. For 8-,10-, and 12-bit words, the received words are right-justified and the sign bit is extended to form a 16-bit word. The words to transmit must be right-justified. At reset, FE = 0. This bit is stored in the BSP control extension register (SPCE).
Industry:Semiconductors
A signal defined by the IEEE RS-232 serial standard that allows a data source, such as a computer or terminal, to indicate that it is ready for transmission.
Industry:Semiconductors
A field used in conjunction with the Soft bit to determine the state of the serial port or timer when a breakpoint is encountered in the highlevel language debugger. At reset, Free = 0.
Industry:Semiconductors
A signal sent by hardware or software to a processor requesting attention. An interrupt tells the processor to suspend its current operation, save the current task status, and perform a particular set of instructions.
Interrupts communicate with the operating system and prioritise tasks to be performed.
