1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
BCM2835 contains the following peripherals which may safely be accessed by the ARM: Timers Interrupt controller GPIO USB PCM / I2S DMA controller I2C master I2C / SPI slave SPI0, SPI1, SPI2 PWM UART0, UART1
The purpose of this datasheet is to provide documentation for these peripherals in sufficient detail to allow a developer to port an operating system to BCM2835. There are a number of peripherals which are intended to be controlled by the GPU. These are omitted from this datasheet. Accessing these peripherals from the ARM is not recommended. 1.2 Address map
1.2.1 Diagrammatic overview In addition to the ARMs MMU, BCM2835 includes a second coarse-grained MMU for mapping ARM physical addresses onto system bus addresses. This diagram shows the main address spaces of interest:

Addresses in ARM Linux are: issued as virtual addresses by the ARM core, then mapped into a physical address by the ARM MMU, then mapped into a bus address by the ARM mapping MMU, and finally used to select the appropriate peripheral or location in RAM.
1.2.2 ARM virtual addresses (standard Linux kernel only) As is standard practice, the standard BCM2835 Linux kernel provides a contiguous mapping over the whole of available RAM at the top of memory. The kernel is configured for a 1GB/3GB split between kernel and user-space memory. The split between ARM and GPU memory is selected by installing one of the supplied start*.elf files as start.elf in the FAT32 boot partition of the SD card. The minimum amount of memory which can be given to the GPU is 32MB, but that will restrict the multimedia performance; for example, 32MB does not provide enough buffering for the GPU to do 1080p30 video decoding. Virtual addresses in kernel mode will range between 0xC0000000 and 0xEFFFFFFF. Virtual addresses in user mode (i.e. seen by processes running in ARM Linux) will range between 0x00000000 and 0xBFFFFFFF. Peripherals (at physical address 0x20000000 on) are mapped into the kernel virtual address space starting at address 0xF2000000. Thus a peripheral advertised here at bus address 0x7Ennnnnn is available in the ARM kenel at virtual address 0xF2nnnnnn. 1.2.3 ARM physical addresses Physical addresses start at 0x00000000 for RAM. The ARM section of the RAM starts at 0x00000000. The VideoCore section of the RAM is mapped in only if the system is configured to support a memory mapped display (this is the common case).
The VideoCore MMU maps the ARM physical address space to the bus address space seen by VideoCore (and VideoCore peripherals). The bus addresses for RAM are set up to map onto the uncached1 bus address range on the VideoCore starting at 0xC0000000. Physical addresses range from 0x20000000 to 0x20FFFFFF for peripherals. The bus addresses for peripherals are set up to map onto the peripheral bus address range starting at 0x7E000000. Thus a peripheral advertised here at bus address 0x7Ennnnnn is available at physical address 0x20nnnnnn. 1.2.4 Bus addresses The peripheral addresses specified in this document are bus addresses. Software directly accessing peripherals must translate these addresses into physical or virtual addresses, as described above. Software accessing peripherals using the DMA engines must use bus addresses.

BCM2835 provides a 128KB system L2 cache, which is used primarily by the GPU. Accesses to memory are routed either via or around the L2 cache depending on senior two bits of the bus address. Page 6

Software accessing RAM directly must use physical addresses (based at 0x00000000). Software accessing RAM using the DMA engines must use bus addresses (based at 0xC0000000). 1.3 Peripheral access precautions for correct memory ordering
The BCM2835 system uses an AMBA AXI-compatible interface structure. In order to keep the system complexity low and data throughput high, the BCM2835 AXI system does not always return read data in-order2. The GPU has special logic to cope with data arriving outof-order; however the ARM core does not contain such logic. Therefore some precautions must be taken when using the ARM to access peripherals. Accesses to the same peripheral will always arrive and return in-order. It is only when switching from one peripheral to another that data can arrive out-of-order. The simplest way to make sure that data is processed in-order is to place a memory barrier instruction at critical positions in the code. You should place: A memory write barrier before the first write to a peripheral. A memory read barrier after the last read of a peripheral.
It is not required to put a memory barrier instruction after each read or write access. Only at those places in the code where it is possible that a peripheral read or write may be followed by a read or write of a different peripheral. This is normally at the entry and exit points of the peripheral service code. As interrupts can appear anywhere in the code so you should safeguard those. If an interrupt routine reads from a peripheral the routine should start with a memory read barrier. If an interrupt routine writes to a peripheral the routine should end with a memory write barrier.
Normally a processor assumes that if it executes two read operations the data will arrive in order. So a read from location X followed by a read from location Y should return the data of location X first, followed by the data of location Y. Data arriving out of order can have disastrous consequences. For example: a_status = *pointer_to_peripheral_a; b_status = *pointer_to_peripheral_b; Without precuations the values ending up in the variables a_status and b_status can be swapped around. It is theoretical possible for writes to go wrong but that is far more difficult to achieve. The AXI system makes sure the data always arrives in-order at its intended destination. So: *pointer_to_peripheral_a = value_a; *pointer_to_peripheral_b = value_b; will always give the expected result. The only time write data can arrive out-of-order is if two different peripherals are connected to the same external equipment. 06 February 2012 Broadcom Europe Ltd. 406 Science Park Milton Road Cambridge CB4 0WW 2012 Broadcom Corporation.

The Device has three Auxiliary peripherals: One mini UART and two SPI masters. These three peripheral are grouped together as they share the same area in the peripheral register map and they share a common interrupt. Also all three are controlled by the auxiliary enable register.

If the enable bits are clear you will have no access to a peripheral. You can not even read or write the registers!
GPIO pins should be set up first the before enabling the UART. The UART core is build to emulate 16550 behaviour. So when it is enabled any data at the inputs will immediately be received . If the UART1_RX line is low (because the GPIO pins have not been set-up yet) that will be seen as a start bit and the UART will start receiving 0x00-characters. Valid stops bits are not required for the UART. (See also Implementation details). Hence any bit status is acceptable as stop bit and is only used so there is clean timing start for the next bit. Looking after a reset: the baudrate will be zero and the system clock will be 250 MHz. So only 2.5 seconds suffice to fill the receive FIFO. The result will be that the FIFO is full and overflowing in no time flat.
2.2 Mini UART The mini UART is a secondary low throughput4 UART intended to be used as a console. It needs to be enabled before it can be used. It is also recommended that the correct GPIO function mode is selected before enabling the mini Uart. The mini Uart has the following features: 7 or 8 bit operation. 1 start and 1 stop bit. No parities. Break generation. 8 symbols deep FIFOs for receive and transmit. SW controlled RTS, SW readable CTS. Auto flow control with programmable FIFO level. 16550 like registers. Baudrate derived from system clock. Break detection Framing errors detection. Parity bit Receive Time-out interrupt DCD, DSR, DTR or RI signals.
This is a mini UART and it does NOT have the following capabilities:
The implemented UART is not a 16650 compatible UART However as far as possible the first 8 control and status registers are laid out like a 16550 UART. Al 16550 register bits which are not supported can be written but will be ignored and read back as 0. All control bits for simple UART receive/transmit operations are available.
The UART itself has no throughput limitations in fact it can run up to 32 Mega baud. But doing so requires significant CPU involvement as it has shallow FIFOs and no DMA support. Page 10

2.2.1 Mini UART implementation details. The UART1_CTS and UART1_RX inputs are synchronised and will take 2 system clock cycles before they are processed. The module does not check for any framing errors. After receiving a start bit and 8 (or 7) data bits the receiver waits for one half bit time and then starts scanning for the next start bit. The mini UART does not check if the stop bit is high or wait for the stop bit to appear. As a result of this a UART1_RX input line which is continuously low (a break condition or an error in connection or GPIO setup) causes the receiver to continuously receive 0x00 symbols. The mini UART uses 8-times oversampling. The Baudrate can be calculated from: system _ clock _ freq baudrate = 8 * (baudrate _ reg + 1) If the system clock is 250 MHz and the baud register is zero the baudrate is 31.25 Mega baud. (25 Mbits/sec or 3.125 Mbytes/sec). The lowest baudrate with a 250 MHz system clock is 476 Baud. When writing to the data register only the LS 8 bits are taken. All other bits are ignored. When reading from the data register only the LS 8 bits are valid. All other bits are zero. 2.2.2 Mini UART register details. AUX_MU_IO_REG Register (0x7E21 5040)
SYNOPSIS The AUX_MU_IO_REG register is primary used to write data to and read data from the UART FIFOs. If the DLAB bit in the line control register is set this register gives access to the LS 8 bits of the baud rate. (Note: there is easier access to the baud rate register)

If this bit is set the RTS line will de-assert if the receive FIFO reaches it 'auto flow' level. In fact the RTS line will behave as an RTR (Ready To Receive) line. If this bit is clear the RTS line is controlled by the AUX_MU_MCR_REG register bit 1.

Receiver enable If this bit is set no new symbols will be accepted by the receiver. Any symbols in progress of reception will be finished. Transmitter enable If this bit is set no new symbols will be send the transmitter. Any symbols in progress of transmission will be finished. Auto flow control Automatic flow control can be enabled independent for the receiver and the transmitter. CTS auto flow control impacts the transmitter only. The transmitter will not send out new symbols when the CTS line is de-asserted. Any symbols in progress of transmission when the CTS line becomes de-asserted will be finished. RTS auto flow control impacts the receiver only. In fact the name RTS for the control line is incorrect and should be RTR (Ready to Receive). The receiver will de-asserted the RTS (RTR) line when its receive FIFO has a number of empty spaces left. Normally 3 empty spaces should be enough. If looping back a mini UART using full auto flow control the logic is fast enough to allow the RTS auto flow level of '10' (De-assert RTS when the receive FIFO has 1 empty space left). Auto flow polarity To offer full flexibility the polarity of the CTS and RTS (RTR) lines can be programmed. This should allow the mini UART to interface with any existing hardware flow control available.

The two universal SPI masters are secondary low throughput5 SPI interfaces. Like the UART the devices needs to be enabled before they can be used. Each SPI master has the following features: Single beat bit length between 1 and 32 bits. Single beat variable bit length between 1 and 24 bits Multi beat infinite bit length. 3 independent chip selects per master. 4 entries 32-bit wide transmit and receive FIFOs. Data out on rising or falling clock edge. Data in on rising or falling clock edge. Clock inversion (Idle high or idle low). Wide clocking range. Programmable data out hold time. Shift in/out MS or LS bit first
A major issue with an SPI interface is that there is no SPI standard in any form. Because the SPI interface has been around for a long time some pseudo-standard rules have appeared mostly when interfacing with memory devices. The universal SPI master has been developed to work even with the most 'non-standard' SPI devices. 2.3.1 SPI implementation details The following diagrams shows a typical SPI access cycle. In this case we have 8 SPI clocks.
1 Bit time Clk Cs_n
Set-up
Operate
Hold
(optional)
Idle
One bit time before any clock edge changes the CS_n will go low. This makes sure that the MOSI signal has a full bit-time of set-up against any changing clock edges. The operation normally ends after the last clock cycle. Note that at the end there is one halfbit time where the clock does not change but which still is part of the operation cycle. There is an option to add a half bit cycle hold time. This makes sure that any MISO data has at least a full SPI bit time to arrive. (Without this hold time, data clocked out of the SPI device on the last clock edge would have only half a bit time to arrive).
Again the SPIs themselves have no throughput limitations in fact they can run with an SPI clock of 125 MHz. But doing so requires significant CPU involvement as they have shallow FIFOs and no DMA support. Page 20

Last there is a guarantee of at least a full bit time where the spi chip select is high. A longer CS_n high period can be programmed for another 1-7 cycles. The SPI clock frequency is: system _ clock _ freq SPIx _ CLK = 2 * ( speed _ field + 1) If the system clock is 250 MHz and the speed field is zero the SPI clock frequency is 125 MHz. The practical SPI clock will be lower as the I/O pads can not transmit or receive signals at such high speed. The lowest SPI clock frequency with a 250 MHz system clock is 30.5 KHz. The hardware has an option to add hold time to the MOSI signal against the SPI clk. This is again done using the system clock. So a 250 MHz system clock will add hold times in units of 4 ns. Hold times of 0, 1, 4 and 7 system clock cycles can be used. (So at 250MHz an additional hold time of 0, 4, 16 and 28 ns can be achieved). The hold time is additional to the normal output timing as specified in the data sheet. 2.3.2 Interrupts The SPI block has two interrupts: TX FIFO is empty, SPI is Idle. TX FIFO is empty: This interrupt will be asserted as soon as the last entry has been read from the transmit FIFO. At that time the interface will still be busy shifting out that data. This also implies that the receive FIFO will not yet contain the last received data. It is possible at that time to fill the TX FIFO again and read the receive FIFO entries which have been received. Note that there is no "receive FIFO full" interrupt as the number of entries received is always equal to the number of entries transmitted. SPI is IDLE: This interrupt will be asserted when the transmit FIFO is empty and the SPI block has finished all actions (including the CS-high time) By this time the receive FIFO will have all received data as well. 2.3.3 Long bit streams The SPI module works in bursts of maximum 32 bits. Some SPI devices require data which is longer the 32 bits. To do this the user must make use of the two different data TX addresses: Tx data written to one address cause the CS to remain asserted. Tx data written to the other address cause the CS to be de-asserted at the end of the transmit cycle. So in order to exchange 96 bits you do the following: Write the first two data words to one address, then write the third word to the other address.

Shift length
Invert SPI CLK Changing this bit will immediately change the polarity of the SPI clock output. It is recommended not to do this when also the CS is active as the connected devices will see this as a clock change. DOUT hold time Because the interface runs of fast silicon the MOSI hold time against the clock will be very short. This can cause considerable problems on SPI slaves. To make it easier for the slave to see the data the hold time of the MOSI out against the SPI clock out is programmable.
CLK CLK
Variable width In this mode the shift length is taken from the transmit FIFO. The transmit data bits 28:24 are used as shift length and the data bits 23:0 are the actual transmit data. If the option 'shift MS out first' is selected the first bit shifted out will be bit 23. The receive data will arrive as normal. Variable CS This mode is used together with the variable width mode. In this mode the CS pattern is taken from the transmit FIFO. The transmit data bits 31:29 are used as CS and the data bits 23:0 are the actual transmit data. This allows the CPU to write to different SPI devices without having to change the CS bits. However the data length is limited to 24 bits. Post-input mode Some rare SPI devices output data on the falling clock edge which then has to be picked up on the next falling clock edge. There are two problems with this: 1. The very first falling clock edge there is no valid data arriving. 2. After the last clock edge there is one more 'dangling' bit to pick up.

The post-input mode is specifically to deal with this sort of data. If the post-input mode bit is set, the data arriving at the first falling clock edge is ignored. Then after the last falling clock edge the CS remain asserted and after a full bit time the last data bit is picked up. The following figure shows this behaviour:
Get first bit Clk Cs_n Get last bit
In this mode the CS will go high 1 full SPI clock cycle after the last clock edge. This guarantees a full SPI clock cycle time for the data to settle and arrive at the MISO input.

Keep input Setting the 'Keep input' bit will make that the input shift register is not cleared between transactions. However the contents of the shift register is still written to the receive FIFO at the end of each transaction. E.g. if you receive two 8 bit values 0x81 followed by 0x46 the receive FIFO will contain: 0x0081 in the first entry and 0x8146 in the second entry. This mode may save CPU time concatenating bits (4 bits followed by 12 bits).

CS high time The SPI CS will always be high for at least 1 SPI clock cycle. Some SPI devices need more time to process the data. This field will set a longer CS-high time. So the actual CS high time is (CS_high_time + 1) (In SPI clock cycles). Interrupts The SPI block has two interrupts: TX FIFO is empty, SPI is Idle. TX FIFO is empty: This interrupt will be asserted as soon as the last entry has been read from the transmit FIFO. At that time the interface will still be busy shifting out that data. This also implies that the receive FIFO will not yet contain the last received data. It is possible at that time to fill the TX FIFO again and read the receive FIFO entries which have been received. There is a RX FIFO level field which tells exactly how many words are in the receive FIFO. In general at that time the receive FIFO should contain the number of Tx items minus one (the last one still being received). Note that there is no "receive FIFO full" interrupt or "receive FIFO overflow" flag as the number of entries received can never be more then the number of entries transmitted. AUX is IDLE: This interrupt will be asserted when the module has finished all activities, including waiting the minimum CS high time. This guarantees that any receive data will be available and `transparent' changes can be made to the configuration register (e.g. inverting the SPI clock polarity).

Introduction
The Broadcom Serial Controller (BSC) controller is a master, fast-mode (400Kb/s) BSC controller. The Broadcom Serial Control bus is a proprietary bus compliant with the Philips I2C bus/interface version 2.1 January 2000. I2C single master only operation (supports clock stretching wait states) Both 7-bit and 10-bit addressing is supported. Timing completely software controllable via registers 3.2 Register View
The BSC controller has eight memory-mapped registers. All accesses are assumed to be 32bit. Note that the BSC2 master is used dedicated with the HDMI interface and should not be accessed by user programs. There are three BSC masters inside BCM. The register addresses starts from BSC0: 0x7E20_5000 BSC1: 0x7E80_4000 BSC2 : 0x7E80_5000
The table below shows the address of I2C interface where the address is an offset from one of the three base addreses listed above.

C Register
Synopsis The control register is used to enable interrupts, clear the FIFO, define a read or write operation and start a transfer. The READ field specifies the type of transfer. The CLEAR field is used to clear the FIFO. Writing to this field is a one-shot operation which will always read back as zero. The CLEAR bit can set at the same time as the start transfer bit, and will result in the FIFO being cleared just prior to the start of transfer. Note that clearing the FIFO during a transfer will result in the transfer being aborted. The ST field starts a new BSC transfer. This has a one shot action, and so the bit will always read back as 0 . The INTD field enables interrupts at the end of a transfer the DONE condition. The interrupt remains active until the DONE condition is cleared by writing a 1 to the I2CS.DONE field. Writing a 0 to the INTD field disables interrupts on DONE. The INTT field enables interrupts whenever the FIFO is or more empty and needs writing (i.e. during a write transfer) - the TXW condition. The interrupt remains active until the TXW condition is cleared by writing sufficient data to the FIFO to complete the transfer. Writing a 0 to the INTT field disables interrupts on TXW. The INTR field enables interrupts whenever the FIFO is or more full and needs reading (i.e. during a read transfer) - the RXR condition. The interrupt remains active until the RXW condition is cleared by reading sufficient data from the RX FIFO. Writing a 0 to the INTR field disables interrupts on RXR. The I2CEN field enables BSC operations. If this bit is 0 then transfers will not be performed. All register accesses are still permitted however. Description Reserved - Write as 0, read as don't care I2CEN I2C Enable 0 = BSC controller is disabled 1 = BSC controller is enabled Reserved - Write as 0, read as don't care INTR INTR Interrupt on RX 0 = Don t generate interrupts on RXR condition. 1 = Generate interrupt while RXR = 1.

Synopsis
The status register is used to record activity status, errors and interrupt requests. The TA field indicates the activity status of the BSC controller. This read-only field returns a 1 when the controller is in the middle of a transfer and a 0 when idle. The DONE field is set when the transfer completes. The DONE condition can be used with I2CC.INTD to generate an interrupt on transfer completion. The DONE field is reset by writing a 1 , writing a 0 to the field has no effect. The read-only TXW bit is set during a write transfer and the FIFO is less than full and needs writing. Writing sufficient data (i.e. enough data to either fill the FIFO more than full or complete the transfer) to the FIFO will clear the field. When the I2CC.INTT control bit is set, the TXW condition can be used to generate an interrupt to write more data to the FIFO to complete the current transfer. If the I2C controller runs out of data to send, it will wait for more data to be written into the FIFO. The read-only RXR field is set during a read transfer and the FIFO is or more full and needs reading. Reading sufficient data to bring the depth below will clear the field. When I2CC.INTR control bit is set, the RXR condition can be used to generate an interrupt to read data from the FIFO before it becomes full. In the event that the FIFO does become full, all I2C operations will stall until data is removed from the FIFO. The read-only TXD field is set when the FIFO has space for at least one byte of data. TXD is clear when the FIFO is full. The TXD field can be used to check that the FIFO can accept data before any is written. Any writes to a full TX FIFO will be ignored. The read-only RXD field is set when the FIFO contains at least one byte of data. RXD is cleared when the FIFO becomes empty. The RXD field can be used to check that the FIFO contains data before reading. Reading from an empty FIFO will return invalid data. The read-only TXE field is set when the FIFO is empty. No further data will be transmitted until more data is written to the FIFO. The read-only RXF field is set when the FIFO is full. No more clocks will be generated until space is available in the FIFO to receive more data. The ERR field is set when the slave fails to acknowledge either its address or a data byte written to it. The ERR field is reset by writing a 1 , writing a 0 to the field has no effect. The CLKT field is set when the slave holds the SCL signal high for too long (clock stretching). The CLKT field is reset by writing a 1 , writing a 0 to the field has no effect. Description Reserved - Write as 0, read as don't care Type Reset

DLEN Register
Synopsis The data length register defines the number of bytes of data to transmit or receive in the I2C transfer. Reading the register gives the number of bytes remaining in the current transfer. The DLEN field specifies the number of bytes to be transmitted/received. Reading the DLEN field when a transfer is in progress (TA = 1) returns the number of bytes still to be transmitted or received. Reading the DLEN field when the transfer has just completed (DONE = 1) returns zero as there are no more bytes to transmit or receive. Finally, reading the DLEN field when TA = 0 and DONE = 0 returns the last value written. The DLEN field can be left over multiple transfers.

10 Bit Addressing
10 Bit addressing is an extension to the standard 7-bit addressing mode. This section describes in detail how to read/write using 10-bit addressing with this I2C controller. 10-bit addressing is compatible with, and can be combined with, 7 bit addressing. Using 10 bits for addressing exploits the reserved combination 1111 0xx for the first byte following a START (S) or REPEATED START (Sr) condition. The 10 bit slave address is formed from the first two bytes following a S or Sr condition. The first seven bits of the first byte are the combination 11110XX of which the last two bits (XX) are the two most significant bits of the 10-bit address. The eighth bit of the first byte is the R/W bit. If the R/W bit is 0 (write) then the following byte contains the remaining 8 bits of the 10-bit address. If the R/W bit is 1 then the next byte contains data transmitted from the slave to the master.
Writing Slave acknowledge
Start
Stop
Figure 3-1 shows a write to a slave with a 10-bit address, to perform this using the controller one must do the following: Assuming we are in the stop state: (and the FIFO is empty) 1. Write the number of data bytes to written (plus one) to the I2CDLEN register. 2. Write XXXXXXXX to the FIFO where XXXXXXXX are the least 8 significant bits of the 10-bit slave address. 3. Write other data to be transmitted to the FIFO. 4. Write 11110XX to Slave Address Register where XX are the two most significant bits of the 10-bit address. Set I2CC.READ = 0 and I2CC.ST = 1, this will start a write transfer.

Figure 3-2 shows how a read from a slave with a 10-bit address is performed. Following is the procedure for performing a read using the controller:
1. Write 1 to the I2CDLEN register. 2. Write XXXXXXXX to the FIFO where XXXXXXXX are the least 8 significant bits
of the 10-bit slave address.
3. Write 11110XX to the Slave Address Register where XX are the two most significant
bits of the 10-bit address. Set I2CC.READ = 0 and I2CC.ST = 1, this will start a write transfer. 4. Poll the I2CS.TA bit, waiting for the transfer has started. 5. Write the number of data bytes to read to the I2CDLEN register. 6. Set I2CC.READ = 1 and I2CC.ST = 1, this will send the repeat start bit, new slave address and R/W bit (which is 1) initiating the read.

4 DMA Controller
4.1 Overview
The majority of hardware pipelines and peripherals within the BCM2835 are bus masters, enabling them to efficiently satisfy their own data requirements. This reduces the requirements of the DMA controller to block-to-block memory transfers and supporting some of the simpler peripherals. In addition, the DMA controller provides a read only prefetch mode to allow data to be brought into the L2 cache in anticipation of its later use. Beware that the DMA controller is direcly connected to the peripherals. Thus the DMA controller must be set-up to use the Physical (harware) addresses of the peripherals. The BCM2835 DMA Controller provides a total of 16 DMA channels. Each channel operates independently from the others and is internally arbitrated onto one of the 3 system busses. This means that the amount of bandwidth that a DMA channel may consume can be controlled by the arbiter settings. Each DMA channel operates by loading a Control Block (CB) data structure from memory into internal registers. The Control Block defines the required DMA operation. Each Control Block can point to a further Control Block to be loaded and executed once the operation described in the current Control Block has completed. In this way a linked list of Control Blocks can be constructed in order to execute a sequence of DMA operations without software intervention. The DMA supports AXI read bursts to ensure efficient external SDRAM use. The DMA control block contains a burst parameter which indicates the required burst size of certain memory transfers. In general the DMA doesnt do write bursts, although wide writes will be done in 2 beat bursts if possible. Memory-to-Peripheral transfers can be paced by a Data Request (DREQ) signal which is generated by the peripheral. The DREQ signal is level sensitive and controls the DMA by gating its AXI bus requests. A peripheral can also provide a Panic signal alongside the DREQ to indicate that there is an imminent danger of FIFO underflow or overflow or similar critical situation. The Panic is used to select the AXI apriority level which is then passed out onto the AXI bus so that it can be used to influence arbitration in the rest of the system. The allocation of peripherals to DMA channels is programmable. The DMA can deal with byte aligned transfers and will minimise bus traffic by buffering and packing misaligned accesses. Each DMA channel can be fully disabled via a top level power register to save power.

The DMA Controller is comprised of several identical DMA Channels depending upon the required configuration. Each individual DMA channel has an identical register map (although LITE channels have less functionality and hence less registers). DMA Channel 0 is located at the address of 0x7E007000, Channel 1 at 0x7E007100, Channel 2 at 0x7E007200 and so on. Thus adjacent DMA Channels are offset by 0x100. DMA Channel 15 however, is physically removed from the other DMA Channels and so has a different address base of 0x7EE05000.

4.2.1 DMA Channel Register Address Map Each DMA channel has an identical register map, only the base address of each channel is different. There is a global enable register at the top of the Address map that can disable each DMA for powersaving. Only three registers in each channels register set are directly writeable (CS, CONBLK_AD and DEBUG). The other registers (TI, SOURCE_AD, DEST_AD, TXFR_LEN, STRIDE & NEXTCONBK), are automatically loaded from a Control Block data structure held in external memory.
4.2.1.1 Control Block Data Structure
Control Blocks (CB) are 8 words (256 bits) in length and must start at a 256-bit aligned address. The format of the CB data structure in memory, is shown below. Each 32 bit word of the control block is automatically loaded into the corresponding 32 bit DMA control block register at the start of a DMA transfer. The descriptions of these registers also defines the corresponding bit locations in the CB data structure in memory.
32-bit Word Offset 0 1 2 3 4 5 6-7 Associated Read-Only Register TI SOURCE_AD DEST_AD TXFR_LEN STRIDE NEXTCONBK N/A
Description Transfer Information Source Address Destination Address Transfer Length 2D Mode Stride Next Control Block Address Reserved set to zero.
Table 4-2 DMA Control Block Definition The DMA is started by writing the address of a CB structure into the CONBLK_AD register and then setting the ACTIVE bit. The DMA will fetch the CB from the address set in the SCB_ADDR field of this reg and it will load it into the read-only registers described below. It will then begin a DMA transfer according to the information in the CB. When it has completed the current DMA transfer (length => 0) the DMA will update the CONBLK_AD register with the contents of the NEXTCONBK register, fetch a new CB from that address, and start the whole procedure once again. The DMA will stop (and clear the ACTIVE bit) when it has completed a DMA transfer and the NEXTCONBK register is set to 0x0000_0000. It will load this value into the CONBLK_AD reg and then stop.

Most of the control block registers cannot be written to directly as they loaded automatically from memory. They can be read to provide status information, and to indicate the progress of the current DMA transfer. The value loaded into the NEXTCONBK register can be overwritten so that the linked list of Control Block data structures can be dynamically altered. However it is only safe to do this when the DMA is paused.

WAIT_FOR_OUTSTANDING_WRITES
Wait for outstanding writes When set to 1, the DMA will keep a tally of the AXI writes going out and the write responses coming in. At the very end of the current DMA transfer it will wait until the last outstanding write response has been received before indicating the transfer is complete. Whilst waiting it will load the next CB address (but will not fetch the CB), clear the active flag (if the next CB address = zero), and it will defer setting the END flag or the INT flag until the last outstanding write response has been received. In this mode, the DMA will pause if it has more than 13 outstanding writes at any one time. Reserved - Write as 0, read as don't care

WAITING_FOR_OUTSTANDING_WRITES
DMA is Waiting for the Last Write to be Received Indicates if the DMA is currently waiting for any outstanding writes to be received, and is not transferring data. 1 = DMA channel is waiting. DMA Paused by DREQ State Indicates if the DMA is currently paused and not transferring data due to the DREQ being inactive.. 1 = DMA channel is paused. 0 = DMA channel is running. DMA Paused State Indicates if the DMA is currently paused and not transferring data. This will occur if: the active bit has been cleared, if the DMA is currently executing wait cycles or if the debug_pause signal has been set by the debug block, or the number of outstanding writes has exceeded the max count. 1 = DMA channel is paused. 0 = DMA channel is running. DREQ State Indicates the state of the selected DREQ (Data Request) signal, ie. the DREQ selected by the PERMAP field of the transfer info. 1 = Requesting data. This will only be valid once the DMA has started and the PERMAP field has been loaded from the CB. It will remain valid, indicating the selected DREQ signal, until a new CB is loaded. If PERMAP is set to zero (unpaced transfer) then this bit will read back as 1. 0 = No data request. Interrupt Status This is set when the transfer for the CB ends and INTEN is set to 1. Once set it must be manually cleared down, even if the next CB has INTEN = 0. Write 1 to clear.

Synopsis DMA Control Block Address register. Description Control Block Address This tells the DMA where to find a Control Block stored in memory. When the ACTIVE bit is set and this address is non zero, the DMA will begin its transfer by loading the contents of the addressed CB into the relevant DMA channel registers. At the end of the transfer this register will be updated with the ADDR field of the NEXTCONBK control block register. If this field is zero, the DMA will stop. Reading this register will return the address of the currently active CB (in the linked list of CB s). The address must be 256 bit aligned, so the bottom 5 bits of the address must be zero.

31:27 26 NO_WIDE_BURSTS
Reserved - Write as 0, read as don't care Don t Do wide writes as a 2 beat burst This prevents the DMA from issuing wide writes as 2 beat AXI bursts. This is an inefficient access mode, so the default is to use the bursts. Add Wait Cycles This slows down the DMA throughput by setting the number of dummy cycles burnt after each DMA read or write operation is completed. A value of 0 means that no wait cycles are to be added. Peripheral Mapping Indicates the peripheral number (1-31) whose ready signal shall be used to control the rate of the transfers, and whose panic signals will be output on the DMA AXI bus. Set to 0 for a continuous un-paced transfer. Burst Transfer Length Indicates the burst length of the DMA transfers. The DMA will attempt to transfer data as bursts of this number of words. A value of zero will produce a single transfer. Bursts are only produced for specific conditions, see main text. Ignore Reads 1 = Do not perform source reads. In addition, destination writes will zero all the write strobes. This is used for fast cache fill operations. 0 = Perform source reads.. Control Source Reads with DREQ 1 = The DREQ selected by PER_MAP will gate the source reads. 0 = DREQ has no effect. Source Transfer Width 1 = Use 128-bit source read width. 0 = Use 32-bit source read width. Source Address Increment 1 = Source address increments after each read. The address will increment by 4, if S_WIDTH=0 else by 32. 0 = Source address does not change. RW 0x0

WAITS
Add Wait Cycles This slows down the DMA throughput by setting the number of dummy cycles burnt after each DMA read or write operation is completed. A value of 0 means that no wait cycles are to be added. Peripheral Mapping Indicates the peripheral number (1-31) whose ready signal shall be used to control the rate of the transfers, and whose panic signals will be output on the DMA AXI bus. Set to 0 for a continuous un-paced transfer. Burst Transfer Length Indicates the burst length of the DMA transfers. The DMA will attempt to transfer data as bursts of this number of words. A value of zero will produce a single transfer. Bursts are only produced for specific conditions, see main text.

A DREQ (Data Request) mechanism is used to pace the data flow between the DMA and a peripheral. Each peripheral is allocated a permanent DREQ signal. Each DMA channel can select which of the DREQ signals should be used to pace the transfer by controlling the DMA reads, DMA writes or both. Note that DREQ 0 is permanently enabled and can be used if no DREQ is required. When a DREQ signal is being used to pace the DMA reads, the DMA will wait until it has sampled DREQ high before launching a single or burst read operation. It will then wait for all the read data to be returned before re-checking the DREQ and starting the next read. Thus once a peripheral receives the read request it should remove its DREQ as soon as possible to prevent the DMA from re-sampling the same DREQ assertion. DREQs are not required when reading from AXI peripherals. In this case, the DMA will request data from the peripheral and the peripheral will only send the data when it is available. The DMA will not request data that is does not have room for, so no pacing of the data flow is required. DREQs are required when reading from APB peripherals as the AXI-to-APB bridge will not wait for an APB peripheral to be ready and will just perfom the APB read regardless. Thus an APB peripheral needs to make sure that it has all of its read data ready before it drives its DREQ high. When writing to peripherals, a DREQ is always required to pace the data. However, due to the pipelined nature of the AXI bus system, several writes may be in flight before the peripheral receives any data and withdraws its DREQ signal. Thus the peripheral must ensure that it has sufficient room in its input FIFO to accommodate the maximum amount of data that it might receive. If the peripheral is unable to do this, the DMA WAIT_RESP mechanism can be used to ensure that only one write is in flight at any one time, however this is less efficient transfer mechanism. The mapping of peripherals to DREQs is as follows:
DREQ Peripheral DREQ = 1 0 This is always on so use this channel if no DREQ is required. DSI PCM TX PCM RX SMI PWM SPI TX SPI RX

4.3
Peripheral (32 bit wide) read bursts are supported. The DMA will generate the burst if there is sufficient room in its read buffer to accommodate all the data from the burst. This limits the burst size to a maximum of 8 beats. Read bursts in destination ignore mode (DEST_IGNORE) are supported as there is no need for the DMA to deal with the data. This allows wide bursts of up to 16 beats to be used for efficient L2 cache fills. DMA channel 0 and 15 are fitted with an external 128 bit 8 word read FIFO. This enables efficient memory to memory transfers to be performed. This FIFO allows the DMA to accommodate a wide read burst up to the size of the FIFO. In practice this will allow a 128 bit wide read burst of 9 as the first word back will be immediately read into the DMA engine (or a 32 bit peripheral read burst of 16 8 in the input buffer and 8 in the fifo). On any DMA channel, if a read burst is selected that is too large, the AXI read bus will be stalled until the DMA has written out the data. This may lead to inefficient system operation, and possibly AXI lock up if it causes a circular dependancy. In general write bursts are not supported. However to increase the efficiency of L2 cache fills, src_ignore (SRC_IGNORE) transfers can be specified with a write burst. In this case the DMA will issue a write burst address sequence followed by the appropriate number of zero data, zero strobe write bus cycles, which will cause the cache to pre-fetch the data. To improve the efficiency of the 128 bit wide bus architecture, and to make use of the DMAs internal 256 bit registers, the DMA will generate 128 bit wide writes as 2 beat bursts wherever possible, although this behaviour can be disabled. 4.4 Error Handling If the DMA detects a Read Response error it will record the fact in the READ_ERROR flag in the debug register. This will remain set until it is cleared by writing a 1 to it. The DMA will clear its active flag and generate an interrupt. Any outstanding read data transactions (remainder of a burst) will be honoured. This allows the operator to either restart the DMA by clearing the error bit and setting the active bit, or to abort the DMA transfer by clearing the NEXTCONBK register and restarting the DMA with the ABORT bit set. The DMA will also record any errors from an external read FIFO. These will be latched in the FIFO_ERROR bit in the debug register until they are cleared by writing a 1 to the bit. (note that only DMA0 and 15 have an external read fifo) If the DMA detects that a read occurred without the AXI rlast set as expected then it will set the READ_LAST_NOT_SET_ERROR bit in the debug register. This can be cleared by writing a 1 to it. The error bits are logically ORd together and presented as a general ERROR bit in the CS register. 4.5 DMA LITE Engines Several of the DMA engines are of the LITE design. This is a reduced specification engine designed to save space. The engine behaves in the same way as a normal DMA engine except for the following differences.

1. The internal data structure is 128 bits instead of 256 bits. This means that if you do a 128 bit wide read burst of more than 1 beat, the DMA input register will be full and the read bus will be stalled. The normal DMA engine can accept a read burst of 2 without stalling. If you do a narrow 32 bit read burst from the peripherals then the lite engine can cope with a burst of 4 as opposed to a burst of 8 for the normal engine. Note that stalling the read bus will potentially reduce the overall system performance, and may possible cause a system lockup if you end up with a conflict where the DMA cannot free the read bus as the read stall has prevented it writing out its data due to some circular system relationship. 2. The Lite engine does not support 2D transfers. The TDMODE, S_STRIDE, D_STRIDE and YLENGTH registers will all be removed. Setting these registers will have no effect. 3. The DMA length register is now 16 bits, limiting the maximum transferrable length to 65536 bytes. 4. Source ignore (SRC_IGNORE) and destination ignore (DEST_IGNORE) modes are removed. The Lite engine will have about half the bandwidth of a normal DMA engine, and are intended for low bandwith peripheral servicing.

The External Mass Media Controller (EMMC) is an embedded MultiMedia and SD card interface provided by Arasan. It is compliant to the following standards:
SD Host Controller Standard Specification Version 3.0 Draft 1.0 SDIO card specification version 3.0 SD Memory Card Specification Draft version 3.0 SD Memory Card Security Specification version 1.01 MMC Specification version 3.31,4.2 and 4.4
For convenience in the following text card is used as a placeholder for SD, embedded MultiMedia and SDIO cards. For detailed information about the EMMC internals please refer to the Arasan document SD3.0_Host_AHB_eMMC4.4_Usersguide_ver5.9_jan11_10.pdf but make sure to read the following chapter which lists the changes made to Arasans IP. Because the EMMC module shares pins with other functionality it must be selected in the GPIO interface. Please refer to the GPIO section for further details. The interface to the card uses its own clock clk_emmc which is provided by the clock manager module. The frequency of this clock should be selected between 50 MHz and 100 MHz. Having a separate clock allows high performance access to the card even if the VideoCore runs at a reduced clock frequency. The EMMC module contains its own internal clock divider to generate the cards clock from clk_emmc. Additionally can the sampling clock for the response and data from the card be delayed in up to 40 steps with a configurable delay between 200ps to 1100ps per step typically. The delay is intended to cancel the internal delay inside the card (up to 14ns) when reading. The delay per step will vary with temperature and supply voltage. Therefore it is better to use a bigger delay than necessary as there is no restriction for the maximum delay. The EMMC module handles the handshaking process on the command and data lines and all CRC processing automatically. Command execution is commenced by writing the command plus the appropriate flags to the CMDTM register after loading any required argument into the ARG1 register. The EMMC module calculates the CRC checksum, transfers the command to the card, receives the response and checks its CRC. Once the command has executed or timed-out bit 0 of register INTERRUPT will be set. Please note that the INTERRUPT register is not self clearing, so the software has first to reset it by writing 1 before using it to detect if a command has finished.

The software is responsible for checking the status bits of the cards response in order to verify successful processing by the card. In order to transfer data from/to the card register DATA is accessed after configuring the host and sending the according commands to the card using CMDTM. Because the EMMC module doesnt interpret the commands sent to the card it is important to configure it identical to the card setup using the CONTROL0 register. Especial care should be taken to make sure that the width of the data bus is configured identical for host and card. The card is synchronized to the data flow by switching off its clock appropriately. A handshake signal dma_req is available for paced data transfers. Bit 1 of the INTERRUPT register can used to determine whether a data transfer has finished. Please note that the INTERRUPT register is not self clearing, so the software has first to reset it by writing 1 before using it to detect if a data transfer has finished. The EMMC module restricts the maximum block size to the size of the internal data FIFO which is 1k bytes. In order to get maximum performance for data transfers it is necessary to use multiple block data transfers. In this case the EMMC module uses two FIFOs in pingpong mode, i.e. one is used to transfer data to/from the card while the other is simultaneously accessed by DMA via the AXI bus. If the EMMC module is configured for single block transfers only one FIFO is used, so no DMA access is possible while data is transferred to/from the card and vice versa resulting in long dead times. o Registers
Contrary to Arasans documentation the EMMC module registers can only be accessed as 32 bit registers, i.e. the two LSBs of the address are always zero. The EMMC register base address is 0x7E300000

CMDTM Register
Synopsis This register is used to issue commands to the card. Besides the command it also contains flags informing the EMMC module what card response and type of data transfer to expect. Incorrect flags will result in strange behaviour. For data transfers two modes are supported: either transferring a single block of data or several blocks of the same size. The SD card uses two different sets of commands to differentiate between them but the host needs to be additionally configured using TM_MULTI_BLOCK. It is important that this bit is set correct for the command sent to the card, i.e. 1 for CMD18 and CMD25 and 0 for CMD17 and CMD24. Multiple block transfer gives a better performance. The BLKSIZECNT register is used to configure the size and number of blocks to be transferred. If bit TM_BLKCNT_EN of this register is set the transfer stops automatically after the number of data blocks configured in the BLKSIZECNT register has been transferred. The TM_AUTO_CMD_EN bits can be used to make the host to send automatically a command to the card telling it that the data transfer has finished once the BLKCNT bits in the BLKSIZECNT register are 0. Description Reserved - Write as 0, read as don't care CMD_INDEX CMD_TYPE Index of the command to be issued to the card Type of command to be issued to the card: 00 = normal 01 = suspend (the current data transfer) 10 = resume (the last data transfer) 11 = abort (the current data transfer) Command involves data transfer: 0 = no data transfer command 1 = data transfer command Check that response has same index as command: 0 = disabled 1 = enabled Check the responses CRC: 0 = disabled 1 = enabled Reserved - Write as 0, read as don't care CMD_RSPNS_TYPE Type of expected response from card: 00 = no response 01 = 136 bits response 10 = 48 bits response 11 = 48 bits response using busy RW 0x0 RW RW 0x0 0x0 Type Reset

The GPIO peripheral has three dedicated interrupt lines. These lines are triggered by the setting of bits in the event detect status register. Each bank has its own interrupt line with the third line shared between all bits. The Alternate function table also has the pull state (pull-up/pull-down) which is applied after a power down.

The function select registers are used to define the operation of the general-purpose I/O pins. Each of the 54 GPIO pins has at least two alternative functions as defined in section 16.2. The FSEL{n} field determines the functionality of the nth GPIO pin. All unused alternative function lines are tied to ground and will output a 0 if selected. All pins reset to normal GPIO input operation.

6.3 General Purpose GPIO Clocks The General Purpose clocks can be output to GPIO pins. They run from the peripherals clock sources and use clock generators with noise-shaping MASH dividers. These allow the GPIO clocks to be used to drive audio devices. The fractional divider operates by periodically dropping source clock pulses, therefore the output frequency will periodically switch between:
source _ frequency DIVI
&
Jitter is therefore reduced by increasing the source clock frequency. In applications where jitter is a concern, the fastest available clock source should be used. The General Purpose clocks have MASH noise-shaping dividers which push this fractional divider jitter out of the audio band. MASH noise-shaping is incorporated to push the fractional divider jitter out of the audio band if required. The MASH can be programmed for 1, 2 or 3-stage filtering. MASH filter, the frequency is spread around the requested frequency and the user must ensure that the module is not exposed to frequencies higher than 25MHz. Also, the MASH filter imposes a low limit on the range of DIVI.
MASH 0 (int divide) 1 2 3 min DIVI 1 2 3 5 min output freq source / ( DIVI ) source / ( DIVI ) source / ( DIVI - 1 ) source / ( DIVI - 3 ) average output freq source / ( DIVI ) source / ( DIVI + DIVF / 1024 ) source / ( DIVI + DIVF / 1024 ) source / ( DIVI + DIVF / 1024 ) max output freq source / ( DIVI ) source / ( DIVI + 1 ) source / ( DIVI + 2 ) source / ( DIVI + 4 )
Table 6-32 Effect of MASH Filter on Frequency The following example illustrates the spreading of output clock frequency resulting from the use of the MASH filter. Note that the spread is greater for lower divisors.

7 Interrupts
7.1 Introduction
1. Interrupts coming from the GPU peripherals. 2. Interrupts coming from local ARM control peripherals. The ARM processor gets three types of interrupts: 1. Interrupts from ARM specific peripherals. 2. Interrupts from GPU peripherals. 3. Special events interrupts. The ARM specific interrupts are: One timer. One Mailbox. Two Doorbells. Two GPU halted interrupts. Two Address/access error interrupt The Mailbox and Doorbell registers are not for general usage. The ARM has two types of interrupt sources:
For each interrupt source (ARM or GPU) there is an interrupt enable bit (read/write) and an interrupt pending bit (Read Only). All interrupts generated by the arm control block are level sensitive interrupts. Thus all interrupts remain asserted until disabled or the interrupt source is cleared. Default the interrupts from doorbell 0,1 and mailbox 0 go to the ARM this means that these resources should be written by the GPU and read by the ARM. The opposite holds for doorbells 2, 3 and mailbox 1.

7.2
Interrupt pending.
An interrupt vector module has NOT been implemented. To still have adequate interrupt processing the interrupt pending bits are organized as follows:
GPU pend. 1
See text
VC IRQs 0-31
GPU pend. 0
There are three interrupt pending registers. One basic pending register and two GPU pending registers. Basic pending register. The basic pending register has interrupt pending bits for the ARM specific interrupts . To speed up the interrupt processing it also has a number of selected GPU interrupts which are deemed most likely to be required in ARM drivers. Further there are two special GPU pending bits which tell if any of the two other pending registers has bits set, one bit if a GPU interrupt 0-31 is pending, a second bit if a GPU interrupt 32-63 is pending. The 'selected GPU interrupts' on the basic pending registers are NOT taken into account for these two status bits. So the two pending 0,1 status bits tell you that 'there are more interrupt which you have not seen yet'. GPU pending registers. There are two GPU pending registers with one bit per GPU interrupt source.
7.3
The ARM also supports a Fast Interrupt (FIQ). One interrupt sources can be selected to be connected to the ARM FIQ input. There is also one FIQ enable. An interrupt which is selected as FIQ should have its normal interrupt enable bit cleared. Otherwise an normal and a FIQ interrupt will be fired at the same time. Not a good idea!
7.4
Interrupt priority.
There is no priority for any interrupt. If one interrupt is much more important then all others it can be routed to the FIQ. Any remaining interrupts have to be processed by polling the pending

registers. It is up to the ARM software to device a strategy. e.g. First start looking for specific pending bits or process them all shifting one bit at a time. As interrupt may arrive whilst this process is ongoing the usual care for any 'race-condition critical' code must be taken. The following ARM assembly code has been proven to work:

GPU IRQ x (10,11..20) These bits are direct interrupts from the GPU. They have been selected as interrupts which are most likely to be useful to the ARM. The GPU interrupt selected are 7, 9, 10, 18, 19, 53,54,55,56,57,62. For details see the GPU interrupts table. Bits set in pending registers (8,9) These bits indicates if there are bits set in the pending 1/2 registers. The pending 1/2 registers hold ALL interrupts 0..63 from the GPU side. Some of these 64 interrupts are also connected to the basic pending register. Any bit set in pending register 1/2 which is NOT connected to the basic pending register causes bit 8 or 9 to set. Status bits 8 and 9 should be seen as "There are some interrupts pending which you don't know about. They are in pending register 1 /2." Illegal access type-0 IRQ (7) This bit indicate that the address/access error line from the ARM processor has generated an interrupt. That signal is asserted when either an address bit 31 or 30 was high or when an access was

seen on the ARM Peripheral bus. The status of that signal can be read from Error/HALT status register bit 2. Illegal access type-1 IRQ (6) This bit indicates that an address/access error is seen in the ARM control has generated an interrupt. That can either be an address bit 29..26 was high or when a burst access was seen on the GPU Peripheral bus. The status of that signal can be read from Error/HALT status register bits 0 and 1. GPU-1 halted IRQ (5) This bit indicate that the GPU-1 halted status bit has generated an interrupt. The status of that signal can be read from Error/HALT status register bits 4. GPU-0 (or any GPU) halted IRQ (4) This bit indicate that the GPU-0 halted status bit has generated an interrupt. The status of that signal can be read from Error/HALT status register bits 3. In order to allow a fast interrupt (FIQ) routine to cope with GPU 0 OR GPU-1 there is a bit in control register 1 which, if set will also route a GPU-1 halted status on this bit. Standard peripheral IRQs (0,1,2,3) These bits indicate if an interrupt is pending for one of the ARM control peripherals.
This register holds ALL interrupts 0..31 from the GPU side. Some of these interrupts are also connected to the basic pending register. Any interrupt status bit in here which is NOT connected to the basic pending will also cause bit 8 of the basic pending register to be set. That is all bits except 7, 9, 10, 18, 19.

PCM_DOUT - serial data output. PCM is a serial format with a single bit data_in and single bit data_out. Data is always serialised MS-bit first. The frame sync signal (PCM_FS) is used to delimit the serial data into individual frames. The length of the frame and the size and position of the frame sync are fully programmable. Frames can contain 1 or 2 audio/data channels in each direction. Each channel can be between 8 and 32 bits wide and can be positioned anywhere within the frame as long as the two channels dont overlap. The channel format is separately programmable for transmit and receive directions.

Figure 8-1 PCM Audio Interface Typical Timing The PCM_CLK can be asynchronous to the bus APB clock and can be logically inverted if required. The direction of the PCM_CLK and PCM_FS signals can be individually selected, allowing the interface to act as a master or slave device. The input interface is also capable of supporting up to 2 PDM microphones, as an alternative to the classic PCM input format, in conjunction with a PCM output.

8.1
Block Diagram
Figure 8-2 PCM Audio Interface Block Diagram The PCM audio interface contains separate transmit and receive FIFOs. Note that if the frame contains two data channels, they must share the same FIFO and so the channel data will be interleaved. The block can be driven using simple polling, an interrupt based method or direct DMA control.
8.2
Typical Timing
Figure 8-1 shows typical interface timing and indicates the flexibility that the peripheral offers. Normally PCM output signals change on the rising edge of PCM_CLK and input signals are sampled on its falling edge. The frame sync is considered as a data signal and sampled in the same way. The front end of the PCM audio interface is run off the PCM_CLK and the PCM signals are timed against this clock. However, the polarity of the PCM_CLK can be physically inverted, in which case the edges are reversed. In clock master mode (CLKM=0), the PCM_CLK is an output and is driven from the PCM_MCLK clock input. In clock slave mode (CLKM=1), the PCM_CLK is an input, supplied by some external clock source.

Page 120
In frame sync master mode (FSM=0), the PCM_FS is internally generated and is treated as a data output that changes on the positive edge of the clock. The length and polarity of the frame sync is fully programmable and it can be used as a standard frame sync signal, or as an L-R signal for I2S. In frame sync slave mode (FSM=1), the PCM_FS is treated as a data input and is sampled on the negative edge of PCM_CLK. The first clock of a frame is taken as the first clock period where PCM_FS is sampled as a 1 following a period or periods where it was previously a 0. The PCM audio interface locks onto the incoming frame sync and uses this to indicate where the data channels are positioned. The precise timing at the start of frame is shown in Figure 8-3. Note that in frame sync slave mode there are two synchronising methods. The legacy method is used when the frame length = 0. In this case the internal frame logic has to detect the incoming PCM_FS signal and reset the internal frame counter at the start of every frame. The logic relies on the PCM_FS to indicate the length of the frame and so can cope with adjacent frames of different lengths. However, this creates a short timing path that will corrupt the PCM_DOUT for one specific frame/channel setting. The preferred method is to set the frame length to the expected length. Here the incoming PCM_FS is used to resynchronise the internal frame counter and this eliminates the short timing path. 8.3 Operation
The PCM interface runs asynchronously at the PCM_CLK rate and automatically transfers transmit and receive data across to the internal APB clock domain. The control registers are NOT synchronised and should be programmed before the device is enabled and should NOT be changed whilst the interface is running. Only the EN, RXON and TXON bits of the PCMCS register are synchronised across the PCM - APB clock domain and are allowed to be changed whilst the interface is running. The EN bit is a global power-saving enable. The TXON and RXON bits enable transmit and receive, and the interface is running whenever either TXON or RXON is enabled. In operation, the PCM format is programmed by setting the appropriate frame length, frame sync, channel position values, and signal polarity controls. The transmit FIFO should be preloaded with data and the interface can then be enabled and started, and will run continuously until stopped. If the transmit FIFO becomes empty or the receive FIFO becomes full, the RXERR or TXERR error flags will be set, but the interface will just continue. If the RX FIFO overflows, new samples are discarded and if the TX FIFO underflows, zeros are transmitted. Normally channel data is read or written into the appropriate FIFO as a single word. If the channel is less than 32 bits, the data is right justified and should be padded with zeros. If the RXSEX bit is set then the received data is sign extended up to the full 32 bits. When a frame is programmed to have two data channels, then each channel is written/read as a separate word in the FIFO, producing an interleaved data stream. When initialising the interface, the first word read out of the TX FIFO will be used for the first channel, and the data from the first channel on the first frame to be received will be the first word written into the RX FIFO. If a FIFO error occurs in a two channel frame, then channel synchronisation may be lost which may result in a left right audio channel swap. RXSYNC and TXSYNC status bits are

provided to help determine if channel slip has occurred. They indicate if the number of words in the FIFO is a multiple of a full frame (taking into account where we are in the current frame being transferred). This assumes that an integer number of frames data has been sent/read from the FIFOs. If a frame is programmed to have two data channels and the packed mode bits are set (FRXP FTXP) then the FIFOs are configured so that each word contains the data for both channels (2x 16 bit samples). In this mode each word written to the TX FIFO contains 2 16 bit samples, and the Least Significant sample is transmitted first. Each word read from the RX FIFO will contain the data received from 2 channels, the first channel received will be in the Least Significant half of the word. If the channels size is less than 16 bits, the TX data will be truncated and RX data will be padded to 16 bits with zeros. Note that data is always serialised MS-bit first. This is well-established behaviour in both PCM and I2S. If the PDM input mode is enabled then channel 1 is sampled on the negative edge of PCM_CLK whilst channel 2 is sampled on the positive edge of PCM_CLK.

Assert RXCLR and/or TXCLR wait for 2 PCM clocks to ensure the FIFOs are reset. The SYNC bit can be used to determine when 2 clocks have passed. Set RXTHR/TXTHR to determine the FIFO thresholds.

If transmitting, ensure that sufficient sample words have been written to PCMFIFO before transmission is started. Set TXON and/or RXON to begin operation. Poll TXW writing sample words to PCMFIFO and RXR reading sample words from PCMFIFO until all data is transferred. 8.4.2 Operating in Interrupt mode a) Set the EN bit to enable the PCM block. Set all operational values to define the frame and channel settings. Assert RXCLR and/or TXCLR wait for 2 PCM clocks to ensure the FIFOs are reset. The SYNC bit can be used to determine when 2 clocks have passed. Set RXTHR/TXTHR to determine the FIFO thresholds. b) Set INTR and/or INTT to enable interrupts. c) If transmitting, ensure that sufficient sample words have been written to PCMFIFO before transmission is started. Set TXON and/or RXON to begin operation. d) When an interrupt occurs, check RXR. If this is set then one or more sample words are available in PCMFIFO. If TXW is set then one or more sample words can be sent to PCMFIFO. 8.4.3 DMA a) Set the EN bit to enable the PCM block. Set all operational values to define the frame and channel settings. Assert RXCLR and/or TXCLR wait for 2 PCM clocks to ensure the FIFOs are reset. The SYNC bit can be used to determine when 2 clocks have passed. b) Set DMAEN to enable DMA DREQ generation and set RXREQ/TXREQ to determine the FIFO thresholds for the DREQs. If required, set TXPANIC and RXPANIC to determine the level at which the DMA should increase its AXI priority, c) In the DMA controllers set the correct DREQ channels, one for RX and one for TX. Start the DMA which should fill the TX FIFO. d) Set TXON and/or RXON to begin operation.
8.5
Error Handling.
In all software operational modes, the possibility of FIFO over or under run exists. Should this happen when using 2 channels per frame, there is a risk of losing sync with the channel data stored in the FIFO. If this happens and is not detected and corrected, then the data channels may become swapped.
The FIFOs will automatically detect an error condition caused by a FIFO over or under-run and this will set the appropriate latching error bit in the control/status register. Writing a 1 back to this error bit will clear the latched flag.
In a system using a polled operation, the error bits can be checked manually. For an interrupt or DMA based system, setting the INTE bit will cause the PCM interface to generate an interrupt when an error is detected.

Page 123
If a FIFO error occurs during operation in which 2 data channels are being used then the synchronisation of the data may be lost. This can be recovered by either of these two methods:
a) Disable transmit and receive (TXON and RXON =0). Clear the FIFOs (RXCLR and TXCLR =1). Note that it may take up to 2 PCM clocks for the FIFOs to be physically cleared after initiating a clear. Then preload the transmit FIFO and restart transmission. This of course loses the data in the FIFO and further interrupts the data flow to the external device.
b) Examine the TXSYNC and RXSYNC flags. These flags indicate if the amount of data in the FIFO is a whole number of frames, automatically taking into account where we are in the current frame being transmitted or received. Thus, providing an even number of samples was read or written to the FIFOs, then if the flags are set then this indicates that a single word needs to be written or read to adjust the data. Normal exchange of data can then proceed (where the first word in a data pair is for channel 1). This method should cause less disruption to the data stream.
8.6
The PDM input mode is capable of interfacing with two digital half-cycle PDM microphones and implements a 4th order CIC decimation filter with a selectable decimation factor. The clock input of the microphones is shared with the PCM output codec and it should be configured to provide the correct clock rate for the microphones. As a result it may be necessary to add a number of padding bits into the PCM output and configure the output codec to allow for this. When using the PDM input mode the bit width and the rate of the data received will depend on the decimation factor used. Once the data has been read from the peripheral a further decimation and filtering stage will be required and can be implemented in software. The software filter should also correct the droop introduced by the CIC filter stage. Similarly a DC correction stage should also be employed.

GRAY mode is used for an incoming data stream only. GRAY mode is selected by setting the enable bit (EN) in the PCM_GRAY register. In this mode data is received on the PCM_DIN (data) and the PCM_FS (strobe) pins. The data is expected to be in data/strobe format. In this mode data is detected when either the data or the strobe change state. As each bit is received it is written into the RX buffer and when 32 bits are received they are written out to the RXFIFO as a 32 bit word. In order for this mode to work the user must program a PCM clock rate which is 4 times faster then the gray data rate. Also the gray coded data input signals should be clean.

The normal RXREQ and RXTHR FIFO levels will apply as for normal PCM received data. If a message is received that is not a multiple of 32 bits, any data in the RX Buffer can be flushed out by setting the flush bit (FLUSH). Once set, this bit will read back as zero until the flush operation has completed. This may take several cycles as the APB clock may be many times faster than the PCM clock. Once the flush has occurred, the bits are packed up to 32 bits with zeros and written out to the RXFIFO. The flushed field (FLUSHED) will indicate how many of bits of this word are valid. Note that to get an accurate indication of the number of bits currently in the rx shift register (RXLEVEL) the APB clock must be at least 2x the PCM_CLK.

This section specifies in detail the functionality provided by the device Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) peripheral.
The PWM controller incorporates the following features: Two independent output bit-streams, clocked at a fixed frequency. Bit-streams configured individually to output either PWM or a serialised version of a 32-bit word. PWM outputs have variable input and output resolutions. Serialise mode configured to load data to and/or read data from a FIFO storage block, which can store up to eight 32-bit words. Both modes clocked by clk_pwm which is nominally 100MHz, but can be varied by the clock manager.

PWM Implementation
A value represented as a ratio of N/M can be transmitted along a serial channel with pulse width modulation in which the value is represented by the duty cycle of the output signal. To send value N/M within a periodic sequence of M cycles, output should be 1 for N cycles and 0 for (M-N) cycles. The desired sequence should have 1s and 0s spread out as even as possible so that during any arbitrary period of time duty cycle achieves closest approximation of the value. This can be shown in the following table where 4/8 is modulated (N= 4, M= 8).
0 0 0
0 0 1
0 1 0
0 1 1
1 0 0
1 0 1
1 1 0
1 1 1
0 0 0
0 0 1
0 1 0
0 1 1
Sequence which gives the good approximation from the table above can be achieved by the following algorithm:
1. Set context = 0 2. context = context + N 3. if (context >= M) context = context M send 1 else
9.4
Modes of Operation
PWM controller consists of two independent channels (pwm_chn in block diagram) which implement the pwm algorithm explained in section 1.3. Each channel can operate in either pwm mode or serialiser mode.
PWM mode: There are two sub-modes in PWM mode: MSEN=0 and MSEN=1.
When MSEN=0, which is the default mode, data to be sent is interpreted as the value N of the algorithm explained above. Number of clock cycles (range) used to send data is the value M of the algorithm. Pulses are sent within this range so that the resulting duty cycle is N/M. Channel sends its output continuously as long as data register is used, or buffer is used and it is not empty.

Page 139
When MSEN=1, PWM block does not use the algorithm explained above, instead it sends serial data with the M/S ratio as in the picture below. M is the data to be sent, and S is the range. This mode may be preferred if high frequency modulation is not required or has negative effects. Channel sends its output continuously as long as data register is used, or buffer is used and it is not empty.
Serialiser mode: Each channel is also capable of working as a serialiser. In this mode data written in buffer or the data register is sent serially.

Synopsis
PWENi is used to enable/disable the corresponding channel. Setting this bit to 1 enables the channel and transmitter state machine. All registers and FIFO is writable without setting this bit. MODEi bit is used to determine mode of operation. Setting this bit to 0 enables PWM mode. In this mode data stored in either PWM_DATi or FIFO is transmitted by pulse width modulation within the range defined by PWM_RNGi. When this mode is used MSENi defines whether to use PWM algorithm. Setting MODEi to 1 enables serial mode, in which data stored in either PWM_DATi or FIFO is transmitted serially within the range defined by PWM_RNGi. Data is transmitted MSB first and truncated or zeropadded depending on PWM_RNGi. Default mode is PWM. RPTLi is used to enable/disable repeating of the last data available in the FIFO just before it empties. When this bit is 1 and FIFO is used, the last available data in the FIFO is repeatedly sent. This may be useful in PWM mode to avoid duty cycle gaps. If the FIFO is not used this bit does not have any effect. Default operation is do-notrepeat. SBITi defines the state of the output when no transmission takes place. It also defines the zero polarity for the zero padding in serialiser mode. This bit is padded between two consecutive transfers as well as tail of the data when PWM_RNGi is larger than bit depth of data being transferred. this bit is zero by default. POLAi is used to configure the polarity of the output bit. When set to high the final output is inverted. Default operation is no inversion. USEFi bit is used to enable/disable FIFO transfer. When this bit is high data stored in the FIFO is used for transmission. When it is low, data written to PWM_DATi is transferred. This bit is 0 as default. CLRF is used to clear the FIFO. Writing a 1 to this bit clears the FIFO. Writing 0 has no effect. This is a single shot operation and reading the bit always returns 0. MSENi is used to determine whether to use PWM algorithm or simple M/S ratio transmission. When this bit is high M/S transmission is used. This bit is zero as default. When MODEi is 1, this configuration bit has no effect. Description Reserved - Write as 0, read as don't care Type Reset

Software must clear this bit by writing 1. Writing 0 to this bit has no effect. GAPOi. bit indicates that there has been a gap between transmission of two consecutive data from FIFO. This may happen when FIFO gets empty after state machine has sent a word and waits for the next. If control bit RPTLi is set to high this event will not occur. Software must clear this bit by writing 1. Writing 0 to this bit has no effect. BERR sets to high when an error has occurred while writing to registers via APB. This may happen if the bus tries to write successively to same set of registers faster than the synchroniser block can cope with. Multiple switching may occur and contaminate the data during synchronisation. Software should clear this bit by writing 1. Writing 0 to this bit has no effect. STAi bit indicates the current state of the channel which is useful for debugging purposes. 0 means the channel is not currently transmitting. 1 means channel is transmitting data.

FIF1 Register
Synopsis This register is the FIFO input for the all channels. Data written to this address is stored in channel FIFO and if USEFi is enabled for the channel i it is used as data to be sent. This register is write only, and reading this register will always return bus default return value, pwm0 . When more than one channel is enabled for FIFO usage, the data written into the FIFO is shared between these channels in turn. For example if the word series A B C D E F G H I .. is written to FIFO and two channels are active and configured to use FIFO then channel 1 will transmit words A C E G I .. and channel 2 will transmit words B D F H .. . Note that requesting data from the FIFO is in locked-step manner and therefore requires tight coupling of state machines of the channels. If any of the channel range (period) value is different than the others this will cause the channels with small range values to wait between words hence resulting in gaps between words. To avoid that, each channel sharing the FIFO should be configured to use the same range value. Also note that RPTLi are not meaningful when the FIFO is shared between channels as there is no defined channel to own the last data in the FIFO. Therefore sharing channels must have their RPTLi set to zero. If the set of channels to share the FIFO has been modified after a configuration change, FIFO should be cleared before writing new data.

Figure 10-3 Different Clock Polarity/Phase 10.2.2 Bidirectional mode In bidirectional SPI master mode the same SPI standard is implemented except that a single wire is used for the data (MIMO) instead of the two as in standard mode (MISO and MOSI). Bidirectional mode is used in a similar way to standard mode, the only difference is that before attempting to read data from the slave, you must set the read enable (SPI_REN) bit in the SPI control and status register (SPI_CS). This will turn the bus around, and when you write to the SPI_FIFO register (with junk) a read transaction will take place on the bus, and the read data will appear in the FIFO.

Commands and parameters are issued to a LoSSI peripheral by writing the 9-bit value of the command or data into the SPI_FIFO register as you would for SPI mode. Reads are automated in that if the serial interface peripheral detects a read command being issued, it will issue the command and complete the read transaction, putting the received data into the FIFO.

10.6 Software Operation 10.6.1 Polled a) Set CS, CPOL, CPHA as required and set TA = 1. b) Poll TXD writing bytes to SPI_FIFO, RXD reading bytes from SPI_FIFO until all data written. c) Poll DONE until it goes to 1. d) Set TA = 0. 10.6.2 Interrupt e) Set INTR and INTD. These can be left set over multiple operations. f) Set CS, CPOL, CPHA as required and set TA = 1. This will immediately trigger a first interrupt with DONE == 1. g) On interrupt: h) If DONE is set and data to write (this means it is the first interrupt), write up to 16 bytes to SPI_FIFO. If DONE is set and no more data, set TA = 0. Read trailing data from SPI_FIFO until RXD is 0. i) If RXR is set read 12 bytes data from SPI_FIFO and if more data to write, write up to 12 bytes to SPIFIFO. 10.6.3 DMA Note: In order to function correctly, each DMA channel must be set to perform 32-bit transfers when communicating with the SPI. Either the Source or the Destination Transfer Width field in the DMA TI register must be set to 0 (i.e. 32-bit words) depending upon whether the channel is reading or writing to the SPI. Two DMA channels are required, one to read from and one to write to the SPI. j) Enable DMA DREQs by setting the DMAEN bit and ADCS if required. k) Program two DMA control blocks, one for each DMA controller. l) DMA channel 1 control block should have its PER_MAP set to x and should be set to write transfer length + 1 words to SPI_FIFO. The data should comprise: i) A word with the transfer length in bytes in the top sixteen bits, and the control register settings [7:0] in the bottom eight bits (i.e. TA = 1, CS, CPOL, CPHA as required.) ii) Transfer length number in words of data to send. m) DMA channel 2 control block should have its PER_MAP set to y and should be set to read transfer length words from SPI_FIFO. n) Point each DMA channel at its CB and set its ACTIVE bit to 1. o) On receipt of an interrupt from DMA channel 2, the transfer is complete.

10.6.4 Notes 1. The SPI Master knows nothing of the peripherals it is connected to. It always both sends and receives bytes for every byte of the transaction. 2. SCLK is only generated during byte serial transfer. It pauses in the rest state if the next byte to send is not ready or RXF is set.
3. Setup and Hold times related to the automatic assertion and de-assertion of the CS lines when operating in DMA mode (DMAEN and ADCS set) are as follows: The CS line will be asserted at least 3 core clock cycles before the msb of the first byte of the transfer. The CS line will be de-asserted no earlier than 1 core clock cycle after the trailing edge of the final clock pulse.
If these parameters are insufficient, software control should alleviate the problem. ADCS should be 0 allowing software to manually control the assertion and de-assertion of the CS lines.

11 SPI/BSC SLAVE
11.1 Introduction The BSC interface can be used as either a Broadcom Serial Controller (BSC) or a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) controller. The BSC bus is a proprietary bus compliant with the Philips I2C bus/interface version 2.1 January 2000. Both BSC and SPI controllers work in the slave mode. The BSC slave controller has specially built in the Host Control and Software Registers for a Chip booting. The BCS controller supports fast-mode (400Kb/s) and it is compliant to the I2C bus specification version 2.1 January 2000 with the restrictions:
I2C slave only operation clock stretching is not supported 7-bit addressing only
There is only one BSC/SPI slave. The registers base addresses is 0x7E21_4000. 11.2 Registers The SPI controller implements 3 wire serial protocol variously called Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) or Synchronous Serial Protocol (SSP). BSC and SPI controllers do not have DMA connected, hence DMA is not supported.

12 System Timer
The System Timer peripheral provides four 32-bit timer channels and a single 64-bit free running counter. Each channel has an output compare register, which is compared against the 32 least significant bits of the free running counter values. When the two values match, the system timer peripheral generates a signal to indicate a match for the appropriate channel. The match signal is then fed into the interrupt controller. The interrupt service routine then reads the output compare register and adds the appropriate offset for the next timer tick. The free running counter is driven by the timer clock and stopped whenever the processor is stopped in debug mode. The Physical (hardware) base address for the system timers is 0x7E003000. 12.1 System Timer Registers

13 UART
The BCM2835 device has two UARTS. On mini UART and and PL011 UART. This section describes the PL011 UART. For details of the mini UART see 2.2 Mini UART. The PL011 UART is a Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter. This is the ARM UART (PL011) implementation. The UART performs serial-to-parallel conversion on data characters received from an external peripheral device or modem, and parallel-to-serial conversion on data characters received from the Advanced Peripheral Bus (APB). The ARM PL011 UART has some optional functionality which can be included or left out. The following functionality is not supported : Infrared Data Association (IrDA) Serial InfraRed (SIR) protocol Encoder/Decoder (ENDEC) Direct Memory Access (DMA). The UART provides: Separate 16x8 transmit and 16x12 receive FIFO memory. Programmable baud rate generator. Standard asynchronous communication bits (start, stop and parity). These are added prior to transmission and removed on reception. False start bit detection. Line break generation and detection. Support of the modem control functions CTS and RTS. However DCD, DSR, DTR, and RI are not supported. Programmable hardware flow control. Fully-programmable serial interface characteristics: data can be 5, 6, 7, or 8 bits even, odd, stick, or no-parity bit generation and detection 1 or 2 stop bit generation baud rate generation, dc up to UARTCLK/16 The UART clock source and associated dividers are controlled by the Clock Manager. For the in-depth UART overview, please, refer to the ARM PrimeCell UART (PL011) Revision: r1p5 Technical Reference Manual. 13.1 Variations from the 16C650 UART The UART varies from the industry-standard 16C650 UART device as follows: Receive FIFO trigger levels are 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and 7/8 Transmit FIFO trigger levels are 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and 7/8 The internal register map address space, and the bit function of each register differ

The deltas of the modem status signals are not available. 1.5 stop bits (1 or 2 stop bits only are supported) Independent receive clock. 13.2 Primary UART Inputs and Outputs
The UART has two primary inputs RXD, nCTS and two primary outputs TXD, nRTS. The remaining signals like SRIN, SROUT, OUT1, OUT2, DSR, DTR, and RI are not supported in this implementation. The following table shows the UART signals map on the General Purpose I/O (GPIO). For the insight on how to program alternate function refer to the GPIO paragraph.

Table 13-1 UART Assignment on the GPIO Pin map 13.3 UART Interrupts The UART has one intra-chip interrupt UARTINTR generated as the OR-ed function of the five individual interrupts. UARTINTR, this is an OR function of the five individual masked outputs: UARTRXINTR UARTTXINTR UARTRTINTR UARTMSINTR, that can be caused by: UARTCTSINTR, because of a change in the nUARTCTS modem status UARTDSRINTR, because of a change in the nUARTDSR modem status. UARTEINTR, that can be caused by an error in the reception:
06 February 2012 Broadcom Europe Ltd. 406 Science Park Milton Road Cambridge CB4 0WW 2012 Broadcom Corporation. All rights reserved Page 176
UARTOEINTR, because of an overrun error UARTBEINTR, because of a break in the reception UARTPEINTR, because of a parity error in the received character UARTFEINTR, because of a framing error in the received character. One can enable or disable the individual interrupts by changing the mask bits in the Interrupt Mask Set/Clear Register, UART_IMSC. Setting the appropriate mask bit HIGH enables the interrupt. UARTRXINTR: The transmit interrupt changes state when one of the following events occurs: If the FIFOs are enabled and the transmit FIFO is equal to or lower than the programmed trigger level then the transmit interrupt is asserted HIGH. The transmit interrupt is cleared by writing data to the transmit FIFO until it becomes greater than the trigger level, or by clearing the interrupt. If the FIFOs are disabled (have a depth of one location) and there is no data present in the transmitters single location, the transmit interrupt is asserted HIGH. It is cleared by performing a single write to the transmit FIFO, or by clearing the interrupt. UARTRTINTR: The receive interrupt changes state when one of the following events occurs: If the FIFOs are enabled and the receive FIFO reaches the programmed trigger level. When this happens, the receive interrupt is asserted HIGH. The receive interrupt is cleared by reading data from the receive FIFO until it becomes less than the trigger level, or by clearing the interrupt. If the FIFOs are disabled (have a depth of one location) and data is received thereby filling the location, the receive interrupt is asserted HIGH. The receive interrupt is cleared by performing a single read of the receive FIFO, or by clearing the interrupt. 13.4 Register View The PL011 USRT is mapped on base adderss 0x7E20100. It has the following memorymapped registers.

Synopsis The UART_DR Register is the data register. For words to be transmitted: if the FIFOs are enabled, data written to this location is pushed onto the transmit FIFO. if the FIFOs are not enabled, data is stored in the transmitter holding register (the bottom word of the transmit FIFO). The write operation initiates transmission from the UART. The data is prefixed with a start bit, appended with the appropriate parity bit (if parity is enabled), and a stop bit. The resultant word is then transmitted. For received words: if the FIFOs are enabled, the data byte and the 4-bit status (break, frame, parity, and overrun) is pushed onto the 12-bit wide receive FIFO if the FIFOs are not enabled, the data byte and status are stored in the receiving holding register (the bottom word of the receive FIFO). Bit(s) Field Name 31:12 11 OE Description Reserved - Write as 0, read as don't care Overrun error. This bit is set to 1 if data is received and the receive FIFO is already full. This is cleared to 0 once there is an empty space in the FIFO and a new character can be written to it. Break error. This bit is set to 1 if a break condition was detected, indicating that the received data input was held LOW for longer than a full-word transmission time (defined as start, data, parity and stop bits). In FIFO mode, this error is associated with the character at the top of the FIFO. When a break occurs, only one 0 character is loaded into the FIFO. The next character is only enabled after the receive data input goes to a 1 (marking state), and the next valid start bit is received. Parity error. When set to 1, it indicates that the parity of the received data character does not match the parity that the EPS and SPS bits in the Line Control Register, UART_LCRH select. In FIFO mode, this error is associated with the character at the top of the FIFO. RW 0x0 Type Reset

The pre-divider register is 10 bits wide and can be written or read from. This register has been added as the SP804 expects a 1MHz clock which we do not have. Instead the pre-divider takes the APB clock and divides it down according to: timer_clock = apb_clock/(pre_divider+1) The reset value of this register is 0x7D so gives a divide by 126.
The free running counter is not present in the SP804. The free running counter is a 32 bits wide read only register. The register is enabled by setting bit 9 of the Timer control register. The free running counter is incremented immediately after it is enabled. The timer can not be reset but when enabled, will always increment and roll-over. The free running counter is also running from the APB clock and has its own clock pre-divider controlled by bits 16-23 of the timer control register. This register will be halted too if bit 8 of the control register is set and the ARM is in Debug Halt mode.

15 USB
The USB core used in the Videocore is build from Synopsys IP. Details about the block can be found in DWC_otg_databook.pdf (Which can also be downloaded from https://www.synopsys.com/dw/ipdir.php?ds=dwc_usb_2_0_hs_otg ) .
15.1 Configuration A number of features of the block are specified before the block is build and thus can not be changed using software. The above mentioned document has a list of these under the chapter "Configuration Parameters". The following table list all configuration parameters mentioned in that chapter and the values which have been chosen.

Table 15-3 USB MDIO data The RW bits in this register are fed into the USB2.0 controller and the RO bits are coming out of it. In the real device, it will be up to the software to communicate this information between the USB2.0 controller and external VBUS device (some of these have I2C control, others will have to interface via GPIO). USB AHB configuration (USB_GAHBCFG) Address
0x 7E98 0008
The USB_GAHBCFG register has been adapted. Bits [4:1] which are marked in the Synopsys documentation as "Burst Length/Type (HBstLen)" have been used differently. [4] 1 = Wait for all outstanding AXI writes to complete before signalling (internally) that DMA is done. 0 = don't wait. Not used
[3]
[2:1] Sets the maximum AXI burst length, but the bits are inverted, 00 = maximum AXI burst length of 4, 01 = maximum AXI burst length of 3, 10 = maximum AXI burst length of 2 11 = maximum AXI burst length of 1
