Notation  
Meaning  
General Register Notation  
REGISTER  
APB registers are indicated in uppercase bold. For example, PBORCTL is the Power-On and  
Brown-Out Reset Control register. If a register name contains a lowercase n, it represents more  
than one register. For example, SRCRn represents any (or all) of the three Software Reset Control  
registers: SRCR0, SRCR1 , and SRCR2.  
bit  
A single bit in a register.  
bit field  
offset 0xnnn  
Two or more consecutive and related bits.  
A hexadecimal increment to a register's address, relative to that module's base address as specified  
in “Memory Map” on page 34.  
Register N  
Registers are numbered consecutively throughout the document to aid in referencing them. The  
register number has no meaning to software.

Notation  
Meaning  
reserved  
Register bits marked reserved are reserved for future use. In most cases, reserved bits are set to  
0; however, user software should not rely on the value of a reserved bit. To provide software  
compatibility with future products, the value of a reserved bit should be preserved across a  
read-modify-write operation.  
yy:xx  
The range of register bits inclusive from xx to yy. For example, 31:15 means bits 15 through 31 in  
that register.  
Register Bit/Field  
Types  
This value in the register bit diagram indicates whether software running on the controller can  
change the value of the bit field.  
RC  
Software can read this field. The bit or field is cleared by hardware after reading the bit/field.  
Software can read this field. Always write the chip reset value.  
Software can read or write this field.  
RO  
R/W  
R/W1C  
Software can read or write this field. A write of a 0 to a W1C bit does not affect the bit value in the  
register. A write of a 1 clears the value of the bit in the register; the remaining bits remain unchanged.  
This register type is primarily used for clearing interrupt status bits where the read operation  
provides the interrupt status and the write of the read value clears only the interrupts being reported  
at the time the register was read.  
W1C  
WO  
Software can write this field. A write of a 0 to a W1C bit does not affect the bit value in the register.  
A write of a 1 clears the value of the bit in the register; the remaining bits remain unchanged. A  
read of the register returns no meaningful data.  
This register is typically used to clear the corresponding bit in an interrupt register.  
Only a write by software is valid; a read of the register returns no meaningful data.  
This value in the register bit diagram shows the bit/field value after any reset, unless noted.  
Register Bit/Field  
Reset Value  
0
Bit cleared to 0 on chip reset.  
Bit set to 1 on chip reset.  
Nondeterministic.

Pin/Signal Notation  
[ ]  
Pin alternate function; a pin defaults to the signal without the brackets.  
Refers to the physical connection on the package.  
pin  
signal  
Refers to the electrical signal encoding of a pin.  
assert a signal  
Change the value of the signal from the logically False state to the logically True state. For active  
High signals, the asserted signal value is 1 (High); for active Low signals, the asserted signal value  
is 0 (Low). The active polarity (High or Low) is defined by the signal name (see SIGNAL and SIGNAL  
below).  
deassert a signal  
Change the value of the signal from the logically True state to the logically False state.  
SIGNAL  
Signal names are in uppercase and in the Courier font. An overbar on a signal name indicates that  
it is active Low. To assert SIGNAL is to drive it Low; to deassert SIGNAL is to drive it High.  
SIGNAL  
Signal names are in uppercase and in the Courier font. An active High signal has no overbar. To  
assert SIGNAL is to drive it High; to deassert SIGNAL is to drive it Low.  
Numbers  
X
An uppercase X indicates any of several values is allowed, where X can be any legal pattern. For  
example, a binary value of 0X00 can be either 0100 or 0000, a hex value of 0xX is 0x0 or 0x1, and  
so on.  
0x  
Hexadecimal numbers have a prefix of 0x. For example, 0x00FF is the hexadecimal number FF.  
All other numbers within register tables are assumed to be binary. Within conceptual information,  
binary numbers are indicated with a b suffix, for example, 1011b, and decimal numbers are written  
without a prefix or suffix.

Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
1.4.1  
ARM Cortex™-M3  
1.4.1.1 Processor Core (see page 28)  
All members of the Stellaris® product family, including the LM3S300 microcontroller, are designed  
around an ARM Cortex™-M3 processor core. The ARM Cortex-M3 processor provides the core for  
a high-performance, low-cost platform that meets the needs of minimal memory implementation,  
reduced pin count, and low-power consumption, while delivering outstanding computational  
performance and exceptional system response to interrupts.  
“ARM Cortex-M3 Processor Core” on page 28 provides an overview of the ARM core; the core is  
detailed in the ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual.  
1.4.1.2 System Timer (SysTick)  
Cortex-M3 includes an integrated system timer, SysTick. SysTick provides a simple, 24-bit  
clear-on-write, decrementing, wrap-on-zero counter with a flexible control mechanism. The counter  
can be used in several different ways, for example:  
An RTOS tick timer which fires at a programmable rate (for example, 100 Hz) and invokes a  
SysTick routine.  
A high-speed alarm timer using the system clock.  
A variable rate alarm or signal timer—the duration is range-dependent on the reference clock  
used and the dynamic range of the counter.  
A simple counter. Software can use this to measure time to completion and time used.  
An internal clock source control based on missing/meeting durations. The COUNTFLAG bit-field  
in the control and status register can be used to determine if an action completed within a set  
duration, as part of a dynamic clock management control loop.  
1.4.1.3 Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC)  
The LM3S300 controller includes the ARM Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) on the ARM  
Cortex-M3 core. The NVIC and Cortex-M3 prioritize and handle all exceptions. All exceptions are  
handled in Handler Mode. The processor state is automatically stored to the stack on an exception,  
and automatically restored from the stack at the end of the Interrupt Service Routine (ISR). The  
vector is fetched in parallel to the state saving, which enables efficient interrupt entry. The processor  
supports tail-chaining, which enables back-to-back interrupts to be performed without the overhead  
of state saving and restoration. Software can set eight priority levels on 7 exceptions (system  
handlers) and 21 interrupts.  
“Interrupts” on page 36 provides an overview of the NVIC controller and the interrupt map. Exceptions  
and interrupts are detailed in the ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual.  
1.4.2  
Motor Control Peripherals  
To enhance motor control, the LM3S300 controller features Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) outputs.  
1.4.2.1 PWM (see page 163)  
Pulse width modulation (PWM) is a powerful technique for digitally encoding analog signal levels.  
High-resolution counters are used to generate a square wave, and the duty cycle of the square  
wave is modulated to encode an analog signal. Typical applications include switching power supplies  
and motor control.  
October 01, 2007  
23  
Preliminary  
Architectural Overview  
On the LM3S300, PWM motion control functionality can be achieved through the motion control  
features of the general-purpose timers (using the CCP pins).  
CCP Pins (see page 163)  
The General-Purpose Timer Module's CCP (Capture Compare PWM) pins are software programmable  
to support a simple PWM mode with a software-programmable output inversion of the PWM signal.  
1.4.3  
Analog Peripherals  
For support of analog signals, the LM3S300 microcontroller offers three analog comparators.  
1.4.3.1 Analog Comparators (see page 326)  
An analog comparator is a peripheral that compares two analog voltages, and provides a logical  
output that signals the comparison result.  
The LM3S300 microcontroller provides three independent integrated analog comparators that can  
be configured to drive an output or generate an interrupt .  
A comparator can compare a test voltage against any one of these voltages:  
An individual external reference voltage  
A shared single external reference voltage  
A shared internal reference voltage  
The comparator can provide its output to a device pin, acting as a replacement for an analog  
comparator on the board, or it can be used to signal the application via interrupts to cause it to start  
capturing a sample sequence.  
1.4.4  
Serial Communications Peripherals  
The LM3S300 controller supports both asynchronous and synchronous serial communications with:  
Two fully programmable 16C550-type UARTs  
One SSI module  
One I2C module  
1.4.4.1 UART (see page 216)  
A Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) is an integrated circuit used for RS-232C  
serial communications, containing a transmitter (parallel-to-serial converter) and a receiver  
(serial-to-parallel converter), each clocked separately.  
The LM3S300 controller includes two fully programmable 16C550-type UARTs that support data  
transfer speeds up to 460.8 Kbps. (Although similar in functionality to a 16C550 UART, it is not  
register-compatible.)  
Separate 16x8 transmit (TX) and 16x12 receive (RX) FIFOs reduce CPU interrupt service loading.  
The UART can generate individually masked interrupts from the RX, TX, modem status, and error  
conditions. The module provides a single combined interrupt when any of the interrupts are asserted  
and are unmasked.

October 01, 2007  
Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
1.4.4.2 SSI (see page 254)  
Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) is a four-wire bi-directional communications interface.  
The LM3S300 controller includes one SSI module that provides the functionality for synchronous  
serial communications with peripheral devices, and can be configured to use the Freescale SPI,  
MICROWIRE, or TI synchronous serial interface frame formats. The size of the data frame is also  
configurable, and can be set between 4 and 16 bits, inclusive.  
The SSI module performs serial-to-parallel conversion on data received from a peripheral device,  
and parallel-to-serial conversion on data transmitted to a peripheral device. The TX and RX paths  
are buffered with internal FIFOs, allowing up to eight 16-bit values to be stored independently.  
The SSI module can be configured as either a master or slave device. As a slave device, the SSI  
module can also be configured to disable its output, which allows a master device to be coupled  
with multiple slave devices.  
The SSI module also includes a programmable bit rate clock divider and prescaler to generate the  
output serial clock derived from the SSI module's input clock. Bit rates are generated based on the  
input clock and the maximum bit rate is determined by the connected peripheral.  
1.4.4.3 I2C (see page 291)  
The Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) bus provides bi-directional data transfer through a two-wire design  
(a serial data line SDA and a serial clock line SCL).  
The I2C bus interfaces to external I2C devices such as serial memory (RAMs and ROMs), networking  
devices, LCDs, tone generators, and so on. The I2C bus may also be used for system testing and  
diagnostic purposes in product development and manufacture.  
The LM3S300 controller includes one I2C module that provides the ability to communicate to other  
IC devices over an I2C bus. The I2C bus supports devices that can both transmit and receive (write  
and read) data.  
Devices on the I2C bus can be designated as either a master or a slave. The I2C module supports  
both sending and receiving data as either a master or a slave, and also supports the simultaneous  
operation as both a master and a slave. The four I2C modes are: Master Transmit, Master Receive,  
Slave Transmit, and Slave Receive.  
A Stellaris® I2C module can operate at two speeds: Standard (100 Kbps) and Fast (400 Kbps).  
Both the I2C master and slave can generate interrupts. The I2C master generates interrupts when  
a transmit or receive operation completes (or aborts due to an error). The I2C slave generates  
interrupts when data has been sent or requested by a master.  
1.4.5  
System Peripherals  
1.4.5.1 Programmable GPIOs (see page 119)  
General-purpose input/output (GPIO) pins offer flexibility for a variety of connections.  
The Stellaris® GPIO module is composed of five physical GPIO blocks, each corresponding to an  
individual GPIO port. The GPIO module is FiRM-compliant (compliant to the ARM Foundation IP  
for Real-Time Microcontrollers specification) and supports 8-36 programmable input/output pins.  
The number of GPIOs available depends on the peripherals being used (see “Signal Tables” on page  
340 for the signals available to each GPIO pin).  
October 01, 2007  
25  
Preliminary  
Architectural Overview  
The GPIO module features programmable interrupt generation as either edge-triggered or  
level-sensitive on all pins, programmable control for GPIO pad configuration, and bit masking in  
both read and write operations through address lines.  
1.4.5.2 Three Programmable Timers (see page 157)  
Programmable timers can be used to count or time external events that drive the Timer input pins.  
The Stellaris® General-Purpose Timer Module (GPTM) contains three GPTM blocks. Each GPTM  
block provides two 16-bit timer/counters that can be configured to operate independently as timers  
or event counters, or configured to operate as one 32-bit timer or one 32-bit Real-Time Clock (RTC).  
When configured in 32-bit mode, a timer can run as a one-shot timer, periodic timer, or Real-Time  
Clock (RTC). When in 16-bit mode, a timer can run as a one-shot timer or periodic timer, and can  
extend its precision by using an 8-bit prescaler. A 16-bit timer can also be configured for event  
capture or Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) generation.  
1.4.5.3 Watchdog Timer (see page 193)  
A watchdog timer can generate nonmaskable interrupts (NMIs) or a reset when a time-out value is  
reached. The watchdog timer is used to regain control when a system has failed due to a software  
error or to the failure of an external device to respond in the expected way.  
The Stellaris® Watchdog Timer module consists of a 32-bit down counter, a programmable load  
register, interrupt generation logic, and a locking register.  
The Watchdog Timer can be configured to generate an interrupt to the controller on its first time-out,  
and to generate a reset signal on its second time-out. Once the Watchdog Timer has been configured,  
the lock register can be written to prevent the timer configuration from being inadvertently altered.  
1.4.6  
Memory Peripherals  
The LM3S300 controller offers both single-cycle SRAM and single-cycle Flash memory.  
1.4.6.1 SRAM (see page 103)  
The LM3S300 static random access memory (SRAM) controller supports 4 KB SRAM. The internal  
SRAM of the Stellaris® devices is located at offset 0x0000.0000 of the device memory map. To  
reduce the number of time-consuming read-modify-write (RMW) operations, ARM has introduced  
bit-banding technology in the new Cortex-M3 processor. With a bit-band-enabled processor, certain  
regions in the memory map (SRAM and peripheral space) can use address aliases to access  
individual bits in a single, atomic operation.  
1.4.6.2 Flash (see page 104)  
The LM3S300 Flash controller supports 16 KB of flash memory. The flash is organized as a set of  
1-KB blocks that can be individually erased. Erasing a block causes the entire contents of the block  
to be reset to all 1s. These blocks are paired into a set of 2-KB blocks that can be individually  
protected. The blocks can be marked as read-only or execute-only, providing different levels of code  
protection. Read-only blocks cannot be erased or programmed, protecting the contents of those  
blocks from being modified. Execute-only blocks cannot be erased or programmed, and can only  
be read by the controller instruction fetch mechanism, protecting the contents of those blocks from  
being read by either the controller or by a debugger.

1.4.7  
Additional Features  
1.4.7.1 Memory Map (see page 34)  
A memory map lists the location of instructions and data in memory. The memory map for the  
LM3S300 controller can be found in “Memory Map” on page 34. Register addresses are given as  
a hexadecimal increment, relative to the module's base address as shown in the memory map.  
The ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual provides further information on the memory  
map.  
1.4.7.2 JTAG TAP Controller (see page 38)  
The Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) port provides a standardized serial interface for controlling the  
Test Access Port (TAP) and associated test logic. The TAP, JTAG instruction register, and JTAG  
data registers can be used to test the interconnects of assembled printed circuit boards, obtain  
manufacturing information on the components, and observe and/or control the inputs and outputs  
of the controller during normal operation. The JTAG port provides a high degree of testability and  
chip-level access at a low cost.  
The JTAG port is comprised of the standard five pins: TRST, TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO. Data is  
transmitted serially into the controller on TDI and out of the controller on TDO. The interpretation of  
this data is dependent on the current state of the TAP controller. For detailed information on the  
operation of the JTAG port and TAP controller, please refer to the IEEE Standard 1149.1-Test  
Access Port and Boundary-Scan Architecture.  
The Luminary Micro JTAG controller works with the ARM JTAG controller built into the Cortex-M3  
core. This is implemented by multiplexing the TDO outputs from both JTAG controllers. ARM JTAG  
instructions select the ARM TDO output while Luminary Micro JTAG instructions select the Luminary  
Micro TDO outputs. The multiplexer is controlled by the Luminary Micro JTAG controller, which has  
comprehensive programming for the ARM, Luminary Micro, and unimplemented JTAG instructions.  
1.4.7.3 System Control and Clocks (see page 48)  
System control determines the overall operation of the device. It provides information about the  
device, controls the clocking of the device and individual peripherals, and handles reset detection  
and reporting.  
1.4.8

Functional Description  
Important: The ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual describes all the features of an  
ARM Cortex-M3 in detail. However, these features differ based on the implementation.  
This section describes the Stellaris® implementation.  
Luminary Micro has implemented the ARM Cortex-M3 core as shown in Figure 2-1 on page 29. As  
noted in the ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual, several Cortex-M3 components are  
flexible in their implementation: SW/JTAG-DP, ETM, TPIU, the ROM table, the MPU, and the Nested  
Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC). Each of these is addressed in the sections that follow.  
2.2.1  
Serial Wire and JTAG Debug  
Luminary Micro has replaced the ARM SW-DP and JTAG-DP with the ARM CoreSight™-compliant  
Serial Wire JTAG Debug Port (SWJ-DP) interface. This means Chapter 12, “Debug Port,” of the  
ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual does not apply to Stellaris® devices.  
The SWJ-DP interface combines the SWD and JTAG debug ports into one module. See the  
CoreSight™ Design Kit Technical Reference Manual for details on SWJ-DP.

2.2.3  
Embedded Trace Macrocell (ETM)  
ETM was not implemented in the Stellaris® devices. This means Chapters 15 and 16 of the ARM®  
Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual can be ignored.  
Trace Port Interface Unit (TPIU)  
The TPIU acts as a bridge between the Cortex-M3 trace data from the ITM, and an off-chip Trace  
Port Analyzer. The Stellaris® devices have implemented TPIU as shown in Figure 2-2 on page 30.  
This is similar to the non-ETM version described in the ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference  
Manual, however, SWJ-DP only provides SWV output for the TPIU.

ARMv7 Protected Memory System Architecture (PMSA) model. The MPU provides full support for  
protection regions, overlapping protection regions, access permissions, and exporting memory

The NVIC supports up to 240 dynamically reprioritizable interrupts each with up to 256 levels of  
priority. The NVIC and the processor core interface are closely coupled, which enables low latency  
interrupt processing and efficient processing of late arriving interrupts. The NVIC maintains knowledge  
of the stacked (nested) interrupts to enable tail-chaining of interrupts.  
You can only fully access the NVIC from privileged mode, but you can pend interrupts in user-mode  
if you enable the Configuration Control Register (see the ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference  
Manual). Any other user-mode access causes a bus fault.  
All NVIC registers are accessible using byte, halfword, and word unless otherwise stated.  
All NVIC registers and system debug registers are little endian regardless of the endianness state  
of the processor.  
2.2.6.1 Interrupts  
The ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual describes the maximum number of interrupts  
and interrupt priorities. The LM3S300 microcontroller supports 21 interrupts with eight priority levels.  
2.2.6.2 System Timer (SysTick)  
Cortex-M3 includes an integrated system timer, SysTick. SysTick provides a simple, 24-bit  
clear-on-write, decrementing, wrap-on-zero counter with a flexible control mechanism. The counter  
can be used in several different ways, for example:  
An RTOS tick timer which fires at a programmable rate (for example, 100 Hz) and invokes a  
SysTick routine.  
A high-speed alarm timer using the system clock.  
A variable rate alarm or signal timer—the duration is range-dependent on the reference clock  
used and the dynamic range of the counter.  
A simple counter. Software can use this to measure time to completion and time used.  
An internal clock source control based on missing/meeting durations. The COUNTFLAG bit-field  
in the control and status register can be used to determine if an action completed within a set  
duration, as part of a dynamic clock management control loop.  
Functional Description  
The timer consists of three registers:  
A control and status counter to configure its clock, enable the counter, enable the SysTick  
interrupt, and determine counter status.  
The reload value for the counter, used to provide the counter's wrap value.  
The current value of the counter.  
A fourth register, the SysTick Calibration Value Register, is not implemented in the Stellaris® devices.  
When enabled, the timer counts down from the reload value to zero, reloads (wraps) to the value  
in the SysTick Reload Value register on the next clock edge, then decrements on subsequent clocks.  
Writing a value of zero to the Reload Value register disables the counter on the next wrap. When  
the counter reaches zero, the COUNTFLAG status bit is set. The COUNTFLAG bit clears on reads.

ARM Cortex-M3 Processor Core  
Writing to the Current Value register clears the register and the COUNTFLAG status bit. The write  
does not trigger the SysTick exception logic. On a read, the current value is the value of the register  
at the time the register is accessed.  
If the core is in debug state (halted), the counter will not decrement. The timer is clocked with respect  
to a reference clock. The reference clock can be the core clock or an external clock source.  
SysTick Control and Status Register  
Use the SysTick Control and Status Register to enable the SysTick features. The reset is  
0x0000.0000.

0 = external reference clock. (Not implemented for Stellaris microcontrollers.)  
1 = core clock.  
If no reference clock is provided, it is held at 1 and so gives the same time as the

If it is not, the count values are unpredictable.

1 = counting down to 0 pends the SysTick handler.  
0 = counting down to 0 does not pend the SysTick handler. Software can use the  
COUNTFLAG to determine if ever counted to 0.  
1 = counter operates in a multi-shot way. That is, counter loads with the Reload  
value and then begins counting down. On reaching 0, it sets the COUNTFLAG to  
1 and optionally pends the SysTick handler, based on TICKINT. It then loads the  
Reload value again, and begins counting.  
0 = counter disabled.  
SysTick Reload Value Register  
Use the SysTick Reload Value Register to specify the start value to load into the current value  
register when the counter reaches 0. It can be any value between 1 and 0x00FF.FFFF. A start value  
of 0 is possible, but has no effect because the SysTick interrupt and COUNTFLAG are activated  
when counting from 1 to 0.  
Therefore, as a multi-shot timer, repeated over and over, it fires every N+1 clock pulse, where N is  
any value from 1 to 0x00FF.FFFF. So, if the tick interrupt is required every 100 clock pulses, 99  
must be written into the RELOAD. If a new value is written on each tick interrupt, so treated as single  
shot, then the actual count down must be written. For example, if a tick is next required after 400  
clock pulses, 400 must be written into the RELOAD.

Interrupts

Interrupts  
The ARM Cortex-M3 processor and the Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) prioritize and  
handle all exceptions. All exceptions are handled in Handler Mode. The processor state is  
automatically stored to the stack on an exception, and automatically restored from the stack at the  
end of the Interrupt Service Routine (ISR). The vector is fetched in parallel to the state saving, which  
enables efficient interrupt entry. The processor supports tail-chaining, which enables back-to-back  
interrupts to be performed without the overhead of state saving and restoration.  
Table 4-1 on page 36 lists all the exceptions. Software can set eight priority levels on seven of these  
exceptions (system handlers) as well as on 21 interrupts (listed in Table 4-2 on page 37).  
Priorities on the system handlers are set with the NVIC System Handler Priority registers. Interrupts  
are enabled through the NVIC Interrupt Set Enable register and prioritized with the NVIC Interrupt  
Priority registers. You can also group priorities by splitting priority levels into pre-emption priorities  
and subpriorities. All the interrupt registers are described in Chapter 8, “Nested Vectored Interrupt  
Controller” in the ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual.  
Internally, the highest user-settable priority (0) is treated as fourth priority, after a Reset, NMI, and  
a Hard Fault. Note that 0 is the default priority for all the settable priorities.  
If you assign the same priority level to two or more interrupts, their hardware priority (the lower the  
position number) determines the order in which the processor activates them. For example, if both  
GPIO Port A and GPIO Port B are priority level 1, then GPIO Port A has higher priority.  
See Chapter 5, “Exceptions” and Chapter 8, “Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller” in the ARM®  
Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual for more information on exceptions and interrupts.

JTAG Interface

JTAG Interface  
The Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) port is an IEEE standard that defines a Test Access Port and  
Boundary Scan Architecture for digital integrated circuits and provides a standardized serial interface  
for controlling the associated test logic. The TAP, Instruction Register (IR), and Data Registers (DR)  
can be used to test the interconnections of assembled printed circuit boards and obtain manufacturing  
information on the components. The JTAG Port also provides a means of accessing and controlling  
design-for-test features such as I/O pin observation and control, scan testing, and debugging.  
The JTAG port is comprised of the standard five pins: TRST, TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO. Data is  
transmitted serially into the controller on TDI and out of the controller on TDO. The interpretation of  
this data is dependent on the current state of the TAP controller. For detailed information on the  
operation of the JTAG port and TAP controller, please refer to the IEEE Standard 1149.1-Test  
Access Port and Boundary-Scan Architecture.  
The Luminary Micro JTAG controller works with the ARM JTAG controller built into the Cortex-M3  
core. This is implemented by multiplexing the TDO outputs from both JTAG controllers. ARM JTAG  
instructions select the ARM TDO output while Luminary Micro JTAG instructions select the Luminary  
Micro TDO outputs. The multiplexer is controlled by the Luminary Micro JTAG controller, which has  
comprehensive programming for the ARM, Luminary Micro, and unimplemented JTAG instructions.  
The JTAG module has the following features:  
IEEE 1149.1-1990 compatible Test Access Port (TAP) controller  
Four-bit Instruction Register (IR) chain for storing JTAG instructions  
IEEE standard instructions:  
BYPASS instruction  
IDCODE instruction  
SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction

Functional Description  
A high-level conceptual drawing of the JTAG module is shown in Figure 5-1 on page 39. The JTAG  
module is composed of the Test Access Port (TAP) controller and serial shift chains with parallel  
update registers. The TAP controller is a simple state machine controlled by the TRST, TCK and  
TMS inputs. The current state of the TAP controller depends on the current value of TRST and the  
sequence of values captured on TMS at the rising edge of TCK. The TAP controller determines when  
the serial shift chains capture new data, shift data from TDI towards TDO, and update the parallel  
load registers. The current state of the TAP controller also determines whether the Instruction  
Register (IR) chain or one of the Data Register (DR) chains is being accessed.  
The serial shift chains with parallel load registers are comprised of a single Instruction Register (IR)  
chain and multiple Data Register (DR) chains. The current instruction loaded in the parallel load  
register determines which DR chain is captured, shifted, or updated during the sequencing of the  
TAP controller.  
Some instructions, like EXTEST and INTEST, operate on data currently in a DR chain and do not  
capture, shift, or update any of the chains. Instructions that are not implemented decode to the  
BYPASS instruction to ensure that the serial path between TDI and TDO is always connected (see  
Table 5-2 on page 44 for a list of implemented instructions).  
See “JTAG and Boundary Scan” on page 353 for JTAG timing diagrams.

5.2.1.1 Test Reset Input (TRST)  
The TRST pin is an asynchronous active Low input signal for initializing and resetting the JTAG TAP  
controller and associated JTAG circuitry. When TRST is asserted, the TAP controller resets to the  
Test-Logic-Reset state and remains there while TRST is asserted. When the TAP controller enters  
the Test-Logic-Reset state, the JTAG Instruction Register (IR) resets to the default instruction,  
IDCODE.  
By default, the internal pull-up resistor on the TRST pin is enabled after reset. Changes to the pull-up  
resistor settings on GPIO Port B should ensure that the internal pull-up resistor remains enabled  
on PB7/TRST; otherwise JTAG communication could be lost.  
5.2.1.2 Test Clock Input (TCK)  
The TCK pin is the clock for the JTAG module. This clock is provided so the test logic can operate  
independently of any other system clocks. In addition, it ensures that multiple JTAG TAP controllers  
that are daisy-chained together can synchronously communicate serial test data between  
components. During normal operation, TCK is driven by a free-running clock with a nominal 50%  
duty cycle. When necessary, TCK can be stopped at 0 or 1 for extended periods of time. While TCK  
is stopped at 0 or 1, the state of the TAP controller does not change and data in the JTAG Instruction  
and Data Registers is not lost.  
By default, the internal pull-up resistor on the TCK pin is enabled after reset. This assures that no  
clocking occurs if the pin is not driven from an external source. The internal pull-up and pull-down  
resistors can be turned off to save internal power as long as the TCK pin is constantly being driven  
by an external source.  
5.2.1.3 Test Mode Select (TMS)  
The TMS pin selects the next state of the JTAG TAP controller. TMS is sampled on the rising edge  
of TCK. Depending on the current TAP state and the sampled value of TMS, the next state is entered.  
Because the TMS pin is sampled on the rising edge of TCK, the IEEE Standard 1149.1 expects the  
value on TMS to change on the falling edge of TCK.  
Holding TMS high for five consecutive TCK cycles drives the TAP controller state machine to the  
Test-Logic-Reset state. When the TAP controller enters the Test-Logic-Reset state, the JTAG  
Instruction Register (IR) resets to the default instruction, IDCODE. Therefore, this sequence can  
be used as a reset mechanism, similar to asserting TRST. The JTAG Test Access Port state machine  
can be seen in its entirety in Figure 5-2 on page 42.

Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
By default, the internal pull-up resistor on the TMS pin is enabled after reset. Changes to the pull-up  
resistor settings on GPIO Port C should ensure that the internal pull-up resistor remains enabled  
on PC1/TMS; otherwise JTAG communication could be lost.  
5.2.1.4 Test Data Input (TDI)  
The TDI pin provides a stream of serial information to the IR chain and the DR chains. TDI is  
sampled on the rising edge of TCK and, depending on the current TAP state and the current  
instruction, presents this data to the proper shift register chain. Because the TDI pin is sampled on  
the rising edge of TCK, the IEEE Standard 1149.1 expects the value on TDI to change on the falling  
edge of TCK.  
By default, the internal pull-up resistor on the TDI pin is enabled after reset. Changes to the pull-up  
resistor settings on GPIO Port C should ensure that the internal pull-up resistor remains enabled  
on PC2/TDI; otherwise JTAG communication could be lost.  
5.2.1.5 Test Data Output (TDO)  
The TDO pin provides an output stream of serial information from the IR chain or the DR chains.  
The value of TDO depends on the current TAP state, the current instruction, and the data in the  
chain being accessed. In order to save power when the JTAG port is not being used, the TDO pin  
is placed in an inactive drive state when not actively shifting out data. Because TDO can be connected  
to the TDI of another controller in a daisy-chain configuration, the IEEE Standard 1149.1 expects  
the value on TDO to change on the falling edge of TCK.  
By default, the internal pull-up resistor on the TDO pin is enabled after reset. This assures that the  
pin remains at a constant logic level when the JTAG port is not being used. The internal pull-up and  
pull-down resistors can be turned off to save internal power if a High-Z output value is acceptable  
during certain TAP controller states.  
5.2.2  
JTAG TAP Controller  
The JTAG TAP controller state machine is shown in Figure 5-2 on page 42. The TAP controller  
state machine is reset to the Test-Logic-Reset state on the assertion of a Power-On-Reset (POR)  
or the assertion of TRST. Asserting the correct sequence on the TMS pin allows the JTAG module  
to shift in new instructions, shift in data, or idle during extended testing sequences. For detailed  
information on the function of the TAP controller and the operations that occur in each state, please  
refer to IEEE Standard 1149.1.

Shift Registers  
The Shift Registers consist of a serial shift register chain and a parallel load register. The serial shift  
register chain samples specific information during the TAP controller’s CAPTURE states and allows  
this information to be shifted out of TDO during the TAP controller’s SHIFT states. While the sampled  
data is being shifted out of the chain on TDO, new data is being shifted into the serial shift register  
on TDI. This new data is stored in the parallel load register during the TAP controller’s UPDATE  
states. Each of the shift registers is discussed in detail in “Register Descriptions” on page 44.  
Operational Considerations  
There are certain operational considerations when using the JTAG module. Because the JTAG pins  
can be programmed to be GPIOs, board configuration and reset conditions on these pins must be  
considered. In addition, because the JTAG module has integrated ARM Serial Wire Debug, the  
method for switching between these two operational modes is described below.

5.2.4.1 GPIO Functionality  
When the controller is reset with either a POR or RST, the JTAG port pins default to their JTAG  
configurations. The default configuration includes enabling the pull-up resistors (setting GPIOPUR  
to 1 for PB7 and PC[3:0]) and enabling the alternate hardware function (setting GPIOAFSEL to  
1 for PB7 and PC[3:0]) on the JTAG pins.  
It is possible for software to configure these pins as GPIOs after reset by writing 0s to PB7 and  
PC[3:0] in the GPIOAFSEL register. If the user does not require the JTAG port for debugging or  
board-level testing, this provides five more GPIOs for use in the design.  
Caution – If the JTAG pins are used as GPIOs in a design, PB7 and PC2 cannot have external pull-down  
resistors connected to both of them at the same time. If both pins are pulled Low during reset, the  
controller has unpredictable behavior. If this happens, remove one or both of the pull-down resistors,  
and apply RST or power-cycle the part.  
In addition, it is possible to create a software sequence that prevents the debugger from connecting to  
the Stellaris® microcontroller. If the program code loaded into flash immediately changes the JTAG  
pins to their GPIO functionality, the debugger may not have enough time to connect and halt the  
controller before the JTAG pin functionality switches. This may lock the debugger out of the part. This  
can be avoided with a software routine that restores JTAG functionality based on an external or software  
trigger.  
5.2.4.2 ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD)  
In order to seamlessly integrate the ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD) functionality, a serial-wire  
debugger must be able to connect to the Cortex-M3 core without having to perform, or have any  
knowledge of, JTAG cycles. This is accomplished with a SWD preamble that is issued before the  
SWD session begins.  
The preamble used to enable the SWD interface of the SWJ-DP module starts with the TAP controller  
in the Test-Logic-Reset state. From here, the preamble sequences the TAP controller through the  
following states: Run Test Idle, Select DR, Select IR, Capture IR, Exit1 IR, Update IR, Run Test  
Idle, Select DR, Select IR, Capture IR, Exit1 IR, Update IR, Run Test Idle, Select DR, Select IR,  
and Test-Logic-Reset states.  
Stepping through the JTAG TAP Instruction Register (IR) load sequences of the TAP state machine  
twice without shifting in a new instruction enables the SWD interface and disables the JTAG interface.  
For more information on this operation and the SWD interface, see the ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical  
Reference Manual and the ARM® CoreSight Technical Reference Manual.  
Because this sequence is a valid series of JTAG operations that could be issued, the ARM JTAG  
TAP controller is not fully compliant to the IEEE Standard 1149.1. This is the only instance where  
the ARM JTAG TAP controller does not meet full compliance with the specification. Due to the low  
probability of this sequence occurring during normal operation of the TAP controller, it should not  
affect normal performance of the JTAG interface.  
5.3  
Initialization and Configuration  
After a Power-On-Reset or an external reset (RST), the JTAG pins are automatically configured for  
JTAG communication. No user-defined initialization or configuration is needed. However, if the user  
application changes these pins to their GPIO function, they must be configured back to their JTAG  
functionality before JTAG communication can be restored. This is done by enabling the five JTAG  
pins (PB7 and PC[3:0]) for their alternate function using the GPIOAFSEL register.

Register Descriptions  
There are no APB-accessible registers in the JTAG TAP Controller or Shift Register chains. The  
registers within the JTAG controller are all accessed serially through the TAP Controller. The registers  
can be broken down into two main categories: Instruction Registers and Data Registers.  
5.4.1  
Instruction Register (IR)  
The JTAG TAP Instruction Register (IR) is a four-bit serial scan chain with a parallel load register  
connected between the JTAG TDI and TDO pins. When the TAP Controller is placed in the correct  
states, bits can be shifted into the Instruction Register. Once these bits have been shifted into the  
chain and updated, they are interpreted as the current instruction. The decode of the Instruction  
Register bits is shown in Table 5-2 on page 44. A detailed explanation of each instruction, along  
with its associated Data Register, follows.

chain and shifts it out.  
1111  
BYPASS  
Reserved  
Connects TDI to TDO through a single Shift Register chain.  
All Others  
Defaults to the BYPASS instruction to ensure that TDI is always connected to TDO.  
5.4.1.1 EXTEST Instruction  
The EXTEST instruction does not have an associated Data Register chain. The EXTEST instruction  
uses the data that has been preloaded into the Boundary Scan Data Register using the  
SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction. When the EXTEST instruction is present in the Instruction Register,  
the preloaded data in the Boundary Scan Data Register associated with the outputs and output  
enables are used to drive the GPIO pads rather than the signals coming from the core. This allows  
tests to be developed that drive known values out of the controller, which can be used to verify  
connectivity.  
5.4.1.2 INTEST Instruction  
The INTEST instruction does not have an associated Data Register chain. The INTEST instruction  
uses the data that has been preloaded into the Boundary Scan Data Register using the  
SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction. When the INTEST instruction is present in the Instruction Register,  
the preloaded data in the Boundary Scan Data Register associated with the inputs are used to drive  
the signals going into the core rather than the signals coming from the GPIO pads. This allows tests  
to be developed that drive known values into the controller, which can be used for testing. It is  
important to note that although the RST input pin is on the Boundary Scan Data Register chain, it  
is only observable.

LM3S300 Microcontroller  
5.4.1.3 SAMPLE/PRELOAD Instruction  
The SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction connects the Boundary Scan Data Register chain between  
TDI and TDO. This instruction samples the current state of the pad pins for observation and preloads  
new test data. Each GPIO pad has an associated input, output, and output enable signal. When the  
TAP controller enters the Capture DR state during this instruction, the input, output, and output-enable  
signals to each of the GPIO pads are captured. These samples are serially shifted out of TDO while  
the TAP controller is in the Shift DR state and can be used for observation or comparison in various  
tests.  
While these samples of the inputs, outputs, and output enables are being shifted out of the Boundary  
Scan Data Register, new data is being shifted into the Boundary Scan Data Register from TDI.  
Once the new data has been shifted into the Boundary Scan Data Register, the data is saved in the  
parallel load registers when the TAP controller enters the Update DR state. This update of the  
parallel load register preloads data into the Boundary Scan Data Register that is associated with  
each input, output, and output enable. This preloaded data can be used with the EXTEST and  
INTEST instructions to drive data into or out of the controller. Please see “Boundary Scan Data  
Register” on page 46 for more information.  
5.4.1.4 ABORT Instruction  
The ABORT instruction connects the associated ABORT Data Register chain between TDI and  
TDO. This instruction provides read and write access to the ABORT Register of the ARM Debug  
Access Port (DAP). Shifting the proper data into this Data Register clears various error bits or initiates  
a DAP abort of a previous request. Please see the “ABORT Data Register” on page 47 for more  
information.  
5.4.1.5 DPACC Instruction  
The DPACC instruction connects the associated DPACC Data Register chain between TDI and  
TDO. This instruction provides read and write access to the DPACC Register of the ARM Debug  
Access Port (DAP). Shifting the proper data into this register and reading the data output from this  
register allows read and write access to the ARM debug and status registers. Please see “DPACC  
Data Register” on page 47 for more information.  
5.4.1.6 APACC Instruction  
The APACC instruction connects the associated APACC Data Register chain between TDI and  
TDO. This instruction provides read and write access to the APACC Register of the ARM Debug  
Access Port (DAP). Shifting the proper data into this register and reading the data output from this  
register allows read and write access to internal components and buses through the Debug Port.  
Please see “APACC Data Register” on page 47 for more information.  
5.4.1.7 IDCODE Instruction  
The IDCODE instruction connects the associated IDCODE Data Register chain between TDI and  
TDO. This instruction provides information on the manufacturer, part number, and version of the  
ARM core. This information can be used by testing equipment and debuggers to automatically  
configure their input and output data streams. IDCODE is the default instruction that is loaded into  
the JTAG Instruction Register when a power-on-reset (POR) is asserted, TRST is asserted, or the  
Test-Logic-Reset state is entered. Please see “IDCODE Data Register” on page 46 for more  
information.

Preliminary  
JTAG Interface  
5.4.1.8 BYPASS Instruction  
The BYPASS instruction connects the associated BYPASS Data Register chain between TDI and  
TDO. This instruction is used to create a minimum length serial path between the TDI and TDO ports.  
The BYPASS Data Register is a single-bit shift register. This instruction improves test efficiency by  
allowing components that are not needed for a specific test to be bypassed in the JTAG scan chain  
by loading them with the BYPASS instruction. Please see “BYPASS Data Register” on page 46 for  
more information.  
5.4.2  
Data Registers  
The JTAG module contains six Data Registers. These include: IDCODE, BYPASS, Boundary Scan,  
APACC, DPACC, and ABORT serial Data Register chains. Each of these Data Registers is discussed  
in the following sections.  
5.4.2.1 IDCODE Data Register  
The format for the 32-bit IDCODE Data Register defined by the IEEE Standard 1149.1 is shown in  
Figure 5-3 on page 46. The standard requires that every JTAG-compliant device implement either  
the IDCODE instruction or the BYPASS instruction as the default instruction. The LSB of the IDCODE  
Data Register is defined to be a 1 to distinguish it from the BYPASS instruction, which has an LSB  
of 0. This allows auto configuration test tools to determine which instruction is the default instruction.  
The major uses of the JTAG port are for manufacturer testing of component assembly, and program  
development and debug. To facilitate the use of auto-configuration debug tools, the IDCODE  
instruction outputs a value of 0x1BA00477. This value indicates an ARM Cortex-M3, Version 1  
processor. This allows the debuggers to automatically configure themselves to work correctly with  
the Cortex-M3 during debug.  
Figure 5-3. IDCODE Register Format  
5.4.2.2 BYPASS Data Register  
The format for the 1-bit BYPASS Data Register defined by the IEEE Standard 1149.1 is shown in  
Figure 5-4 on page 46. The standard requires that every JTAG-compliant device implement either  
the BYPASS instruction or the IDCODE instruction as the default instruction. The LSB of the BYPASS  
Data Register is defined to be a 0 to distinguish it from the IDCODE instruction, which has an LSB  
of 1. This allows auto configuration test tools to determine which instruction is the default instruction.  
Figure 5-4. BYPASS Register Format  
5.4.2.3 Boundary Scan Data Register  
The format of the Boundary Scan Data Register is shown in Figure 5-5 on page 47. Each GPIO  
pin, in a counter-clockwise direction from the JTAG port pins, is included in the Boundary Scan Data  
Register. Each GPIO pin has three associated digital signals that are included in the chain. These  
46  
October 01, 2007  
Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
signals are input, output, and output enable, and are arranged in that order as can be seen in the  
figure. In addition to the GPIO pins, the controller reset pin, RST, is included in the chain. Because  
the reset pin is always an input, only the input signal is included in the Data Register chain.  
When the Boundary Scan Data Register is accessed with the SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction, the  
input, output, and output enable from each digital pad are sampled and then shifted out of the chain  
to be verified. The sampling of these values occurs on the rising edge of TCK in the Capture DR  
state of the TAP controller. While the sampled data is being shifted out of the Boundary Scan chain  
in the Shift DR state of the TAP controller, new data can be preloaded into the chain for use with  
the EXTEST and INTEST instructions. These instructions either force data out of the controller, with  
the EXTEST instruction, or into the controller, with the INTEST instruction.

System Control

System Control  
System control determines the overall operation of the device. It provides information about the  
device, controls the clocking to the core and individual peripherals, and handles reset detection and  
reporting.  
6.1  
Functional Description  
The System Control module provides the following capabilities:  
Device identification, see “Device Identification” on page 48  
Local control, such as reset (see “Reset Control” on page 48), power (see “Power  
Control” on page 51) and clock control (see “Clock Control” on page 51)  
System control (Run, Sleep, and Deep-Sleep modes), see “System Control” on page 54  
6.1.1  
6.1.2  
Device Identification  
Seven read-only registers provide software with information on the microcontroller, such as version,  
part number, SRAM size, flash size, and other features. See the DID0, DID1, and DC0-DC4 registers.  
Reset Control  
This section discusses aspects of hardware functions during reset as well as system software  
requirements following the reset sequence.  
6.1.2.1 Reset Sources  
The controller has six sources of reset:  
1. External reset input pin (RST) assertion, see “RST Pin Assertion” on page 48.  
2. Power-on reset (POR), see “Power-On Reset (POR)” on page 49.  
3. Internal brown-out (BOR) detector, see “Brown-Out Reset (BOR)” on page 49.  
4. Software-initiated reset (with the software reset registers), see “Software Reset” on page 50.  
5. A watchdog timer reset condition violation, see “Watchdog Timer Reset” on page 51.  
6. Internal low drop-out (LDO) regulator output  
After a reset, the Reset Cause (RESC) register is set with the reset cause. The bits in this register  
are sticky and maintain their state across multiple reset sequences,except when an external reset  
is the cause, and then all the other bits in the RESC register are cleared.  
Note: The main oscillator is used for external resets and power-on resets; the internal oscillator  
is used during the internal process by internal reset and clock verification circuitry.  
6.1.2.2 RST Pin Assertion  
The external reset pin (RST) resets the controller. This resets the core and all the peripherals except  
the JTAG TAP controller (see “JTAG Interface” on page 38). The external reset sequence is as  
follows:  
48  
October 01, 2007  
Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
1. The external reset pin (RST) is asserted and then de-asserted.  
2. After RST is de-asserted, the main crystal oscillator is allowed to settle and there is an internal  
main oscillator counter that takes from 15-30 ms to account for this. During this time, internal  
reset to the rest of the controller is held active.  
3. The internal reset is released and the core fetches and loads the initial stack pointer, the initial  
program counter, the first instruction designated by the program counter, and begins execution.  
The external reset timing is shown in Figure 18-9 on page 356.  
6.1.2.3 Power-On Reset (POR)  
The Power-On Reset (POR) circuitry detects a rise in power-supply voltage (VDD) and generates  
an on-chip reset pulse. To use the on-chip circuitry, the RST input needs to be connected to the  
power supply (VDD) through a pull-up resistor (1K to 10K Ω).  
The device must be operating within the specified operating parameters at the point when the on-chip  
power-on reset pulse is complete. The specified operating parameters include supply voltage,  
frequency, temperature, and so on. If the operating conditions are not met at the point of POR end,  
the Stellaris® controller does not operate correctly. In this case, the reset must be extended using  
external circuitry. The RST input may be used with the circuit as shown in Figure 6-1 on page 49.  
Figure 6-1. External Circuitry to Extend Reset  
Stellaris  
D1  
R1  
RST  
R2  
C1  
The R1 and C1 components define the power-on delay. The R2 resistor mitigates any leakage from  
the RST input. The diode (D1) discharges C1 rapidly when the power supply is turned off.  
The Power-On Reset sequence is as follows:  
1. The controller waits for the later of external reset (RST) or internal POR to go inactive.  
2. After the resets are inactive, the main crystal oscillator is allowed to settle and there is an internal  
main oscillator counter that takes from 15-30 ms to account for this. During this time, internal  
reset to the rest of the controller is held active.  
3. The internal reset is released and the core fetches and loads the initial stack pointer, the initial  
program counter, the first instruction designated by the program counter, and begins execution.  
The internal POR is only active on the initial power-up of the controller. The Power-On Reset timing  
is shown in Figure 18-10 on page 356.  
Note: The power-on reset also resets the JTAG controller. An external reset does not.  
6.1.2.4 Brown-Out Reset (BOR)  
A drop in the input voltage resulting in the assertion of the internal brown-out detector can be used  
to reset the controller. This is initially disabled and may be enabled by software.  
October 01, 2007  
49  
Preliminary  
System Control  
The system provides a brown-out detection circuit that triggers if the power supply (VDD) drops  
below a brown-out threshold voltage (VBTH). The circuit is provided to guard against improper  
operation of logic and peripherals that operate off the power supply voltage (VDD) and not the LDO  
voltage. If a brown-out condition is detected, the system may generate a controller interrupt or a  
system reset. The BOR circuit has a digital filter that protects against noise-related detection for the  
interrupt condition. This feature may be optionally enabled.  
Brown-out resets are controlled with the Power-On and Brown-Out Reset Control (PBORCTL)  
register. The BORIOR bit in the PBORCTL register must be set for a brown-out condition to trigger  
a reset.  
The brown-out reset sequence is as follows:  
1. When VDD drops below VBTH, an internal BOR condition is set.  
2. If the BORWT bit in the PBORCTL register is set and BORIOR is not set, the BOR condition is  
resampled again, after a delay specified by BORTIM, to determine if the original condition was  
caused by noise. If the BOR condition is not met the second time, then no further action is taken.  
3. If the BOR condition exists, an internal reset is asserted.  
4. The internal reset is released and the controller fetches and loads the initial stack pointer, the  
initial program counter, the first instruction designated by the program counter, and begins  
execution.  
5. The internal BOR condition is reset after 500 µs to prevent another BOR condition from being  
set before software has a chance to investigate the original cause.  
The internal Brown-Out Reset timing is shown in Figure 18-11 on page 357.  
6.1.2.5 Software Reset  
Software can reset a specific peripheral or generate a reset to the entire system .  
Peripherals can be individually reset by software via three registers that control reset signals to each  
peripheral (see the SRCRn registers). If the bit position corresponding to a peripheral is set and  
subsequently cleared, the peripheral is reset. The encoding of the reset registers is consistent with  
the encoding of the clock gating control for peripherals and on-chip functions (see “System  
Control” on page 54). Note that all reset signals for all clocks of the specified unit are asserted as  
a result of a software-initiated reset.  
The entire system can be reset by software by setting the SYSRESETREQ bit in the Cortex-M3  
Application Interrupt and Reset Control register resets the entire system including the core. The  
software-initiated system reset sequence is as follows:  
1. A software system reset is initiated by writing the SYSRESETREQ bit in the ARM Cortex-M3  
Application Interrupt and Reset Control register.  
2. An internal reset is asserted.  
3. The internal reset is deasserted and the controller loads from memory the initial stack pointer,  
the initial program counter, and the first instruction designated by the program counter, and  
then begins execution.  
The software-initiated system reset timing is shown in Figure 18-12 on page 357.

LM3S300 Microcontroller  
6.1.2.6 Watchdog Timer Reset  
The watchdog timer module's function is to prevent system hangs. The watchdog timer can be  
configured to generate an interrupt to the controller on its first time-out, and to generate a reset  
signal on its second time-out.  
After the first time-out event, the 32-bit counter is reloaded with the value of the Watchdog Timer  
Load (WDTLOAD) register, and the timer resumes counting down from that value. If the timer counts  
down to its zero state again before the first time-out interrupt is cleared, and the reset signal has  
been enabled, the watchdog timer asserts its reset signal to the system. The watchdog timer reset  
sequence is as follows:  
1. The watchdog timer times out for the second time without being serviced.  
2. An internal reset is asserted.  
3. The internal reset is released and the controller loads from memory the initial stack pointer, the  
initial program counter, the first instruction designated by the program counter, and begins  
execution.  
The watchdog reset timing is shown in Figure 18-13 on page 357.  
6.1.2.7 Low Drop-Out  
A reset can be initiated when the internal low drop-out (LDO) regulator output goes unregulated.  
This is initially disabled and may be enabled by software. LDO is controlled with the LDO Power  
Control (LDOPCTL) register. The LDO reset sequence is as follows:  
1. LDO goes unregulated and the LDOARST bit in the LDOARST register is set.  
2. An internal reset is asserted.  
3. The internal reset is released and the controller fetches and loads the initial stack pointer, the  
initial program counter, the first instruction designated by the program counter, and begins  
execution.  
The LDO reset timing is shown in Figure 18-14 on page 357.  
6.1.3  
6.1.4  
Power Control  
The Stellaris® microcontroller provides an integrated LDO regulator that is used to provide power  
to the majority of the controller's internal logic. The LDO regulator provides software a mechanism  
to adjust the regulated value, in small increments (VSTEP), over the range of 2.25 V to 2.75 V  
(inclusive)—or 2.5 V ± 10%. The adjustment is made by changing the value of the VADJ field in the  
LDO Power Control (LDOPCTL) register.  
Clock Control  
System control determines the control of clocks in this part.  
6.1.4.1 Fundamental Clock Sources  
There are two clock sources for use in the device:  
Internal Oscillator (IOSC): The internal oscillator is an on-chip clock source. It does not require  
the use of any external components. The frequency of the internal oscillator is 12 MHz ± 30%.  
October 01, 2007  
51  
Preliminary  
System Control  
Applications that do not depend on accurate clock sources may use this clock source to reduce  
system cost.  
Main Oscillator: The main oscillator provides a frequency-accurate clock source by one of two  
means: an external single-ended clock source is connected to the OSC0 input pin, or an external  
crystal is connected across the OSC0 input and OSC1 output pins. The crystal value allowed  
depends on whether the main oscillator is used as the clock reference source to the PLL. If so,  
the crystal must be one of the supported frequencies between 3.579545 MHz through 8.192  
MHz (inclusive). If the PLL is not being used, the crystal may be any one of the supported  
frequencies between 1 MHz and 8.192 MHz. The single-ended clock source range is from DC  
through the specified speed of the device. The supported crystals are listed in the XTAL bit in  
the RCC register (see page 66).  
The internal system clock (sysclk), is derived from any of the two sources plus two others: the output  
of the internal PLL, and the internal oscillator divided by four (3 MHz ± 30%). The frequency of the  
PLL clock reference must be in the range of 3.579545 MHz to 8.192 MHz (inclusive).  
Nearly all of the control for the clocks is provided by the Run-Mode Clock Configuration (RCC)  
register.  
Figure 6-2 on page 52 shows the logic for the main clock tree. The peripheral blocks are driven by  
the system clock signal and can be programmatically enabled/disabled.

6.1.4.2 Crystal Configuration for the Main Oscillator (MOSC)  
The main oscillator supports the use of a select number of crystals. If the main oscillator is used by  
the PLL as a reference clock, the supported range of crystals is 3.579545 to 8.192 MHz, otherwise,  
the range of supported crystals is 1 to 8.192 MHz.  
The XTAL bit in the RCC register (see page 66) describes the available crystal choices and default  
programming values.  
Software configures the RCC register XTAL field with the crystal number. If the PLL is used in the  
design, the XTAL field value is internally translated to the PLL settings.

Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
6.1.4.3 PLL Frequency Configuration  
The PLL is disabled by default during power-on reset and is enabled later by software if required.  
Software configures the PLL input reference clock source, specifies the output divisor to set the  
system clock frequency, and enables the PLL to drive the output.  
If the main oscillator provides the clock reference to the PLL, the translation provided by hardware  
and used to program the PLL is available for software in the XTAL to PLL Translation (PLLCFG)  
register (see page 70). The internal translation provides a translation within ± 1% of the targeted  
PLL VCO frequency.  
The XTAL bit in the RCC register (see page 66) describes the available crystal choices and default  
programming of the PLLCFG register. The crystal number is written into the XTAL field of the  
Run-Mode Clock Configuration (RCC) register. Any time the XTAL field changes, the new settings  
are translated and the internal PLL settings are updated.  
6.1.4.4 PLL Modes  
The PLL has two modes of operation: Normal and Power-Down  
Normal: The PLL multiplies the input clock reference and drives the output.  
Power-Down: Most of the PLL internal circuitry is disabled and the PLL does not drive the output.  
The modes are programmed using the RCC register fields (see page 66).  
6.1.4.5 PLL Operation  
If the PLL configuration is changed, the PLL output frequency is unstable until it reconverges (relocks)  
to the new setting. The time between the configuration change and relock is TREADY (see Table  
18-6 on page 350). During this time, the PLL is not usable as a clock reference.  
The PLL is changed by one of the following:  
Change to the XTAL value in the RCC register—writes of the same value do not cause a relock.  
Change in the PLL from Power-Down to Normal mode.  
A counter is defined to measure the TREADY requirement. The counter is clocked by the main  
oscillator. The range of the main oscillator has been taken into account and the down counter is set  
to 0x1200 (that is, ~600 μs at an 8.192 MHz external oscillator clock). Hardware is provided to keep  
the PLL from being used as a system clock until the TREADY condition is met after one of the two  
changes above. It is the user's responsibility to have a stable clock source (like the main oscillator)  
before the RCC register is switched to use the PLL.  
6.1.4.6 Clock Verification Timers  
There are three identical clock verification circuits that can be enabled though software. The circuit  
checks the faster clock by a slower clock using timers:  
The main oscillator checks the PLL.  
The main oscillator checks the internal oscillator.  
The internal oscillator divided by 64 checks the main oscillator.  
If the verification timer function is enabled and a failure is detected, the main clock tree is immediately  
switched to a working clock and an interrupt is generated to the controller. Software can then

Preliminary  
System Control  
determine the course of action to take. The actual failure indication and clock switching does not  
clear without a write to the CLKVCLR register, an external reset, or a POR reset. The clock  
verification timers are controlled by the PLLVER , IOSCVER , and MOSCVER bits in the RCC register.  
6.1.5  
System Control  
For power-savings purposes, the RCGCn , SCGCn , and DCGCn registers control the clock gating  
logic for each peripheral or block in the system while the controller is in Run, Sleep, and Deep-Sleep  
mode, respectively. The DC1 , DC2 and DC4 registers act as a write mask for the RCGCn , SCGCn,  
and DCGCn registers.  
In Run mode, the controller is actively executing code. In Sleep mode, the clocking of the device is  
unchanged but the controller no longer executes code (and is no longer clocked). In Deep-Sleep  
mode, the clocking of the device may change (depending on the Run mode clock configuration)  
and the controller no longer executes code (and is no longer clocked). An interrupt returns the device  
to Run mode from one of the sleep modes. Each mode is described in more detail in this section.  
There are four levels of operation for the device defined as:  
Run Mode. Run mode provides normal operation of the processor and all of the peripherals that  
are currently enabled by the RCGCn registers. The system clock can be any of the available  
clock sources including the PLL.  
Sleep Mode. Sleep mode is entered by the Cortex-M3 core executing a WFI (Wait for  
Interrupt) instruction. Any properly configured interrupt event in the system will bring the  
processor back into Run mode. See the system control NVIC section of the ARM® Cortex™-M3  
Technical Reference Manual for more details.  
In Sleep mode, the Cortex-M3 processor core and the memory subsystem are not clocked.  
Peripherals are clocked that are enabled in the SCGCn register when auto-clock gating is enabled  
(see the RCC register) or the RCGCn register when the auto-clock gating is disabled. The system  
clock has the same source and frequency as that during Run mode.  
Deep-Sleep Mode. Deep-Sleep mode is entered by first writing the Deep Sleep Enable bit in  
the ARM Cortex-M3 NVIC system control register and then executing a WFI instruction. Any  
properly configured interrupt event in the system will bring the processor back into Run mode.  
See the system control NVIC section of the ARM® Cortex™-M3 Technical Reference Manual  
for more details.  
The Cortex-M3 processor core and the memory subsystem are not clocked. Peripherals are  
clocked that are enabled in the DCGCn register when auto-clock gating is enabled (see the RCC  
register) or the RCGCn register when auto-clock gating is disabled. The system clock source is  
the main oscillator by default or the internal oscillator specified in the DSLPCLKCFG register if  
one is enabled. When the DSLPCLKCFG register is used, the internal oscillator is powered up,  
if necessary, and the main oscillator is powered down. If the PLL is running at the time of the  
WFI instruction, hardware will power the PLL down and override the SYSDIV field of the active  
RCC register to be /16 or /64, respectively. When the Deep-Sleep exit event occurs, hardware  
brings the system clock back to the source and frequency it had at the onset of Deep-Sleep  
mode before enabling the clocks that had been stopped during the Deep-Sleep duration.  
6.2  
Initialization and Configuration  
The PLL is configured using direct register writes to the RCC register. The steps required to  
successfully change the PLL-based system clock are:  
54  
October 01, 2007  
Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
1. Bypass the PLL and system clock divider by setting the BYPASS bit and clearing the USESYS  
bit in the RCC register. This configures the system to run off a “raw” clock source (using the  
main oscillator or internal oscillator) and allows for the new PLL configuration to be validated  
before switching the system clock to the PLL.  
2. Select the crystal value (XTAL) and oscillator source (OSCSRC), and clear the PWRDN and OEN  
bits in RCC. Setting the XTAL field automatically pulls valid PLL configuration data for the  
appropriate crystal, and clearing the PWRDN and OEN bits powers and enables the PLL and its  
output.  
3. Select the desired system divider (SYSDIV) in RCC and set the USESYS bit in RCC. The SYSDIV  
field determines the system frequency for the microcontroller.  
4. Wait for the PLL to lock by polling the PLLLRIS bit in the Raw Interrupt Status (RIS) register.  
5. Enable use of the PLL by clearing the BYPASS bit in RCC.  
Note: If the BYPASS bit is cleared before the PLL locks, it is possible to render the device unusable.

Auto Clock Gating  
This bit specifies whether the system uses the Sleep-Mode Clock  
Gating Control (SCGCn) registers and Deep-Sleep-Mode Clock  
Gating Control (DCGCn) registers if the controller enters a Sleep or  
Deep-Sleep mode (respectively). If set, the SCGCn or DCGCn registers  
are used to control the clocks distributed to the peripherals when the  
controller is in a sleep mode. Otherwise, the Run-Mode Clock Gating  
Control (RCGCn) registers are used when the controller enters a sleep  
mode.  
The RCGCn registers are always used to control the clocks in Run  
mode.  
This allows peripherals to consume less power when the controller is  
in a sleep mode and the peripheral is unused.

System Control  
Register 19: Run Mode Clock Gating Control Register 0 (RCGC0), offset 0x100  
This register controls the clock gating logic. Each bit controls a clock enable for a given interface,  
function, or unit. If set, the unit receives a clock and functions. Otherwise, the unit is unclocked and  
disabled (saving power). If the unit is unclocked, reads or writes to the unit will generate a bus fault.  
The reset state of these bits is 0 (unclocked) unless otherwise noted, so that all functional units are  
disabled. It is the responsibility of software to enable the ports necessary for the application. Note  
that these registers may contain more bits than there are interfaces, functions, or units to control.  
This is to assure reasonable code compatibility with other family and future parts. RCGC0 is the  
clock configuration register for running operation, SCGC0 for Sleep operation, and DCGC0 for  
Deep-Sleep operation. Setting the ACG bit in the Run-Mode Clock Configuration (RCC) register  
specifies that the system uses sleep modes.

UART0 Clock Gating Control  
This bit controls the clock gating for UART module 0. If set, the unit  
receives a clock and functions. Otherwise, the unit is unclocked and  
disabled. If the unit is unclocked, reads or writes to the unit will generate  
a bus fault.

Register 24: Deep Sleep Mode Clock Gating Control Register 1 (DCGC1),  
offset 0x124  
This register controls the clock gating logic. Each bit controls a clock enable for a given interface,  
function, or unit. If set, the unit receives a clock and functions. Otherwise, the unit is unclocked and  
disabled (saving power). If the unit is unclocked, reads or writes to the unit will generate a bus fault.  
The reset state of these bits is 0 (unclocked) unless otherwise noted, so that all functional units are  
disabled. It is the responsibility of software to enable the ports necessary for the application. Note  
that these registers may contain more bits than there are interfaces, functions, or units to control.  
This is to assure reasonable code compatibility with other family and future parts. RCGC1 is the  
clock configuration register for running operation, SCGC1 for Sleep operation, and DCGC1 for  
Deep-Sleep operation. Setting the ACG bit in the Run-Mode Clock Configuration (RCC) register  
specifies that the system uses sleep modes.

Functional Description  
This section describes the functionality of both the flash and SRAM memories.  
7.2.1  
SRAM Memory  
The internal SRAM of the Stellaris® devices is located at address 0x2000.0000 of the device memory  
map. To reduce the number of time consuming read-modify-write (RMW) operations, ARM has  
introduced bit-banding technology in the Cortex-M3 processor. With a bit-band-enabled processor,  
certain regions in the memory map (SRAM and peripheral space) can use address aliases to access  
individual bits in a single, atomic operation.  
The bit-band alias is calculated by using the formula:  
October 01, 2007  
103  
Preliminary  
Internal Memory  
bit-band alias = bit-band base + (byte offset * 32) + (bit number * 4)  
For example, if bit 3 at address 0x2000.1000 is to be modified, the bit-band alias is calculated as:  
0x2200.0000 + (0x1000 * 32) + (3 * 4) = 0x2202.000C  
With the alias address calculated, an instruction performing a read/write to address 0x2202.000C  
allows direct access to only bit 3 of the byte at address 0x2000.1000.  
For details about bit-banding, please refer to Chapter 4, “Memory Map” in the ARM® Cortex™-M3  
Technical Reference Manual.  
7.2.2  
Flash Memory  
The flash is organized as a set of 1-KB blocks that can be individually erased. Erasing a block  
causes the entire contents of the block to be reset to all 1s. An individual 32-bit word can be  
programmed to change bits that are currently 1 to a 0. These blocks are paired into a set of 2-KB  
blocks that can be individually protected. The protection allows blocks to be marked as read-only  
or execute-only, providing different levels of code protection. Read-only blocks cannot be erased  
or programmed, protecting the contents of those blocks from being modified. Execute-only blocks  
cannot be erased or programmed, and can only be read by the controller instruction fetch mechanism,  
protecting the contents of those blocks from being read by either the controller or by a debugger.  
See also “Serial Flash Loader” on page 360 for a preprogrammed flash-resident utility used to  
download code to the flash memory of a device without the use of a debug interface.  
7.2.2.1 Flash Memory Timing  
The timing for the flash is automatically handled by the flash controller. However, in order to do so,  
it must know the clock rate of the system in order to time its internal signals properly. The number  
of clock cycles per microsecond must be provided to the flash controller for it to accomplish this  
timing. It is software's responsibility to keep the flash controller updated with this information via the  
USec Reload (USECRL) register.  
On reset, the USECRL register is loaded with a value that configures the flash timing so that it works  
with the maximum clock rate of the part. If software changes the system operating frequency, the  
new operating frequency minus 1 (in MHz) must be loaded into USECRL before any flash  
modifications are attempted. For example, if the device is operating at a speed of 20 MHz, a value  
of 0x13 (20-1) must be written to the USECRL register.  
7.2.2.2 Flash Memory Protection  
The user is provided two forms of flash protection per 2-KB flash blocks in two 32-bit wide  
registers.The protection policy for each form is controlled by individual bits (per policy per block) in  
the FMPPEn and FMPREn registers.  
Flash Memory Protection Program Enable (FMPPEn): If set, the block may be programmed  
(written) or erased. If cleared, the block may not be changed.  
Flash Memory Protection Read Enable (FMPREn): If set, the block may be executed or read  
by software or debuggers. If cleared, the block may only be executed. The contents of the memory  
block are prohibited from being accessed as data and traversing the DCode bus.  
The policies may be combined as shown in Table 7-1 on page 105.

The block may be written, erased or executed, but not read. This combination is unlikely to be used.  
Read-only protection. The block may be read or executed but may not be written or erased. This mode  
is used to lock the block from further modification while allowing any read or execute access.  
1
1
No protection. The block may be written, erased, executed or read.  
An access that attempts to program or erase a PE-protected block is prohibited. A controller interrupt  
may be optionally generated (by setting the AMASK bit in the FIM register) to alert software developers  
of poorly behaving software during the development and debug phases.  
An access that attempts to read an RE-protected block is prohibited. Such accesses return data  
filled with all 0s. A controller interrupt may be optionally generated to alert software developers of  
poorly behaving software during the development and debug phases.  
The factory settings for the FMPREn and FMPPEn registers are a value of 1 for all implemented  
banks. This implements a policy of open access and programmability. The register bits may be  
changed by writing the specific register bit. The changes are not permanent until the register is  
committed (saved), at which point the bit change is permanent. If a bit is changed from a 1 to a 0  
and not committed, it may be restored by executing a power-on reset sequence.  
7.2.2.3 Flash Protection by Disabling Debug Access  
Flash memory may also be protected by permanently disabling access to the Debug Access Port  
(DAP) through the JTAG and SWD interfaces. This is accomplished by clearing the DBG field of  
the FMPRE register.  
Flash Memory Protection Read Enable (DBG field): If set to 0x2, access to the DAP is enabled  
through the JTAG and SWD interfaces. If clear, access to the DAP is disabled. The DBG field  
programming becomes permanent, and irreversible, after a commit sequence is performed.  
In the initial state, provided from the factory, access is enabled in order to facilitate code development  
and debug. Access to the DAP may be disabled at the end of the manufacturing flow, once all tests  
have passed and software loaded. This change will not take effect until the next power-up of the  
device. Note that it is recommended that disabling access to the DAP be combined with a mechanism  
for providing end-user installable updates (if necessary) such as the Stellaris boot loader.  
Important: Once the DBG field is cleared and committed, this field can never be restored to the  
factory-programmed value—which means JTAG/SWD interface to the debug module  
can never be re-enabled. This sequence does NOT disable the JTAG controller, it only  
disables the access of the DAP through the JTAG or SWD interfaces. The JTAG interface  
remains functional and access to the Test Access Port remains enabled, allowing the  
user to execute the IEEE JTAG-defined instructions (for example, to perform boundary  
scan operations).  
If the user will also be using the FMPRE bits to protect flash memory from being read as data (to  
mark sets of 2 KB blocks of flash memory as execute-only), these one-time-programmable bits  
should be written at the same time that the debug disable bits are programmed. Mechanisms to  
execute the one-time code sequence to disable all debug access include:

Flash Memory Initialization and Configuration  
This section shows examples for using the flash controller to perform various operations on the  
contents of the flash memory.  
7.3.1  
Changing Flash Protection Bits  
As discussed in “Flash Memory Protection” on page 104, changes to the protection bits must be  
committed before they take effect. The sequence below is used change and commit a block protection  
bit in the FMPRE or FMPPE registers. The sequence to change and commit a bit in software is as  
follows:  
1. The Flash Memory Protection Read Enable (FMPRE) and Flash Memory Protection Program  
Enable (FMPPE) registers are written, changing the intended bit(s). The action of these changes  
can be tested by software while in this state.  
2. The Flash Memory Address (FMA) register (see page 109) bit 0 is set to 1 if the FMPPE register  
is to be committed; otherwise, a 0 commits the FMPRE register.  
3. The Flash Memory Control (FMC) register (see page 111) is written with the COMT bit set. This  
initiates a write sequence and commits the changes.  
There is a special sequence to change and commit the DBG bits in the Flash Memory Protection  
Read Enable (FMPRE) register. This sequence also sets and commits any changes from 1 to 0 in  
the block protection bits (for execute-only) in the FMPRE register.  
1. The Flash Memory Protection Read Enable (FMPRE) register is written, changing the intended  
bit(s). The action of these changes can be tested by software while in this state.  
2. The Flash Memory Address (FMA) register (see ppage 109) is written with a value of 0x900.  
3. The Flash Memory Control (FMC) register (see page 111) is written with the COMT bit set. This  
initiates a write sequence and commits the changes.  
Below is an example code sequence to permanently disable the JTAG and SWD interface to the  
debug module using Luminary Micro's DriverLib peripheral driver library:  
#include "hw_types.h"  
#include "hw_flash.h"  
void  
permanently_disable_jtag_swd(void)  
{
//  
// Clear the DBG field of the FMPRE register. Note that the value  
// used in this instance does not affect the state of the BlockN  
// bits, but were the value different, all bits in the FMPRE are  
// affected by this function!  
//  
HWREG(FLASH_FMPRE) &= 0x3fffffff;  
//  
// The following sequence activates the one-time

October 01, 2007

LM3S300 Microcontroller  
// programming of the FMPRE register.  
//  
HWREG(FLASH_FMA) = 0x900;  
HWREG(FLASH_FMC) = (FLASH_FMC_WRKEY | FLASH_FMC_COMT);  
//  
// Wait until the operation is complete.  
//  
while (HWREG(FLASH_FMC) & FLASH_FMC_COMT)  
{
}
}
7.3.2  
Flash Programming  
The Stellaris® devices provide a user-friendly interface for flash programming. All erase/program  
operations are handled via three registers: FMA, FMD, and FMC.  
7.3.2.1 To program a 32-bit word  
1. Write source data to the FMD register.  
2. Write the target address to the FMA register.  
3. Write the flash write key and the WRITE bit (a value of 0xA442.0001) to the FMC register.  
4. Poll the FMC register until the WRITE bit is cleared.  
7.3.2.2 To perform an erase of a 1-KB page  
1. Write the page address to the FMA register.  
2. Write the flash write key and the ERASE bit (a value of 0xA442.0002) to the FMC register.  
3. Poll the FMC register until the ERASE bit is cleared.  
7.3.2.3 To perform a mass erase of the flash  
1. Write the flash write key and the MERASE bit (a value of 0xA442.0004) to the FMC register.  
2. Poll the FMC register until the MERASE bit is cleared.  
7.4  
Register Map  
Table 7-2 on page 108 lists the Flash memory and control registers. The offset listed is a hexadecimal  
increment to the register's address. The FMA, FMD, FMC, FCRIS, FCIM, and FCMISC registers  
are relative to the Flash control base address of 0x400F.D000. The FMPREn, FMPPEn, USECRL,  
USER_DBG, and USER_REGn registers are relative to the System Control base address of

Register 3: Flash Memory Control (FMC), offset 0x008  
When this register is written, the flash controller initiates the appropriate access cycle for the location  
specified by the Flash Memory Address (FMA) register (see page 109). If the access is a write  
access, the data contained in the Flash Memory Data (FMD) register (see page 110) is written.  
This is the final register written and initiates the memory operation. There are four control bits in the  
lower byte of this register that, when set, initiate the memory operation. The most used of these  
register bits are the ERASE and WRITE bits.  
It is a programming error to write multiple control bits and the results of such an operation are  
unpredictable.

Register 8: Flash Memory Protection Read Enable (FMPRE), offset 0x130  
Note: Offset is relative to System Control base address of 0x400FE000.  
This register stores the read-only protection bits for each 2-KB flash block (see the FMPPE registers  
for the execute-only protection bits). This register is loaded during the power-on reset sequence.  
The factory settingsare a value of 1 for all implemented banks. This implements a policy of open  
access and programmability. The register bits may be changed by writing the specific register bit.  
However, this register is R/W0; the user can only change the protection bit from a 1 to a 0 (and may  
NOT change a 0 to a 1). The changes are not permanent until the register is committed (saved), at  
which point the bit change is permanent. If a bit is changed from a 1 to a 0 and not committed, it  
may be restored by executing a power-on reset sequence. For additional information, see the “Flash

General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)  
The GPIO module is composed of five physical GPIO blocks, each corresponding to an individual  
GPIO port (Port A, Port B, Port C, Port D, and Port E, ). The GPIO module is FiRM-compliant and  
supports 8-36 programmable input/output pins, depending on the peripherals being used.  
The GPIO module has the following features:  
Programmable control for GPIO interrupts  
Interrupt generation masking  
Edge-triggered on rising, falling, or both  
Level-sensitive on High or Low values  
5-V-tolerant input/outputs  
Bit masking in both read and write operations through address lines  
Programmable control for GPIO pad configuration  
Weak pull-up or pull-down resistors  
2-mA, 4-mA, and 8-mA pad drive  
Slew rate control for the 8-mA drive  
Open drain enables  
Digital input enables  
8.1  
Functional Description  
Important: All GPIO pins are inputs by default (GPIODIR=0 and GPIOAFSEL=0), with the exception  
of the five JTAG pins (PB7 and PC[3:0]). The JTAG pins default to their JTAG  
functionality (GPIOAFSEL=1). A Power-On-Reset (POR) or asserting an external reset  
(RST) puts both groups of pins back to their default state.  
Each GPIO port is a separate hardware instantiation of the same physical block (see Figure  
8-1 on page 120). The LM3S300 microcontroller contains five ports and thus five of these physical  
GPIO blocks.

8.1.1  
Data Control  
The data control registers allow software to configure the operational modes of the GPIOs. The data  
direction register configures the GPIO as an input or an output while the data register either captures  
incoming data or drives it out to the pads.  
8.1.1.1 Data Direction Operation  
The GPIO Direction (GPIODIR) register (see page 127) is used to configure each individual pin as  
an input or output. When the data direction bit is set to 0, the GPIO is configured as an input and  
the corresponding data register bit will capture and store the value on the GPIO port. When the data  
direction bit is set to 1, the GPIO is configured as an output and the corresponding data register bit  
will be driven out on the GPIO port.  
8.1.1.2 Data Register Operation  
To aid in the efficiency of software, the GPIO ports allow for the modification of individual bits in the  
GPIO Data (GPIODATA) register (see page 126) by using bits [9:2] of the address bus as a mask.  
This allows software drivers to modify individual GPIO pins in a single instruction, without affecting  
the state of the other pins. This is in contrast to the "typical" method of doing a read-modify-write  
operation to set or clear an individual GPIO pin. To accommodate this feature, the GPIODATA  
register covers 256 locations in the memory map.  
During a write, if the address bit associated with that data bit is set to 1, the value of the GPIODATA  
register is altered. If it is cleared to 0, it is left unchanged.

GPIODATA  
During a read, if the address bit associated with the data bit is set to 1, the value is read. If the  
address bit associated with the data bit is set to 0, it is read as a zero, regardless of its actual value.  
For example, reading address GPIODATA + 0x0C4 yields as shown in Figure 8-3 on page 121.

Interrupt Control  
The interrupt capabilities of each GPIO port are controlled by a set of seven registers. With these  
registers, it is possible to select the source of the interrupt, its polarity, and the edge properties.  
When one or more GPIO inputs cause an interrupt, a single interrupt output is sent to the interrupt  
controller for the entire GPIO port. For edge-triggered interrupts, software must clear the interrupt  
to enable any further interrupts. For a level-sensitive interrupt, it is assumed that the external source  
holds the level constant for the interrupt to be recognized by the controller.  
Three registers are required to define the edge or sense that causes interrupts:  
GPIO Interrupt Sense (GPIOIS) register (see page 128)  
GPIO Interrupt Both Edges (GPIOIBE) register (see page 129)  
GPIO Interrupt Event (GPIOIEV) register (see page 130)  
Interrupts are enabled/disabled via the GPIO Interrupt Mask (GPIOIM) register (see page 131).  
When an interrupt condition occurs, the state of the interrupt signal can be viewed in two locations:  
the GPIO Raw Interrupt Status (GPIORIS) and GPIO Masked Interrupt Status (GPIOMIS) registers  
(see page 132 and page 133). As the name implies, the GPIOMIS register only shows interrupt  
conditions that are allowed to be passed to the controller. The GPIORIS register indicates that a  
GPIO pin meets the conditions for an interrupt, but has not necessarily been sent to the controller.  
Interrupts are cleared by writing a 1 to the GPIO Interrupt Clear (GPIOICR) register (see page 134).

Preliminary  
General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)  
When programming the following interrupt control registers, the interrupts should be masked (GPIOIM  
set to 0). Writing any value to an interrupt control register (GPIOIS, GPIOIBE, or GPIOIEV) can  
generate a spurious interrupt if the corresponding bits are enabled.  
8.1.3  
Mode Control  
The GPIO pins can be controlled by either hardware or software. When hardware control is enabled  
via the GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL) register (see page 135), the pin state is  
controlled by its alternate function (that is, the peripheral). Software control corresponds to GPIO  
mode, where the GPIODATA register is used to read/write the corresponding pins.  
8.1.4  
8.1.5  
Pad Control  
The pad control registers allow for GPIO pad configuration by software based on the application  
requirements. The pad control registers include the GPIODR2R, GPIODR4R, GPIODR8R, GPIOODR,  
GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, GPIOSLR, and GPIODEN registers.  
Identification  
The identification registers configured at reset allow software to detect and identify the module as  
a GPIO block. The identification registers include the GPIOPeriphID0-GPIOPeriphID7 registers as  
well as the GPIOPCellID0-GPIOPCellID3 registers.  
8.2  
Initialization and Configuration  
To use the GPIO, the peripheral clock must be enabled by setting the appropriate GPIO Port bit  
field (GPIOn) in the RCGC2 register.  
On reset, all GPIO pins (except for the five JTAG pins) default to general-purpose inut mode  
(GPIODIR=0 and GPIOAFSEL=0). Table 8-1 on page 122 shows all possible configurations of the  
GPIO pads and the control register settings required to achieve them. Table 8-2 on page 123 shows  
how a rising edge interrupt would be configured for pin 2 of a GPIO port.

Register Map  
Table 8-3 on page 124 lists the GPIO registers. The offset listed is a hexadecimal increment to the  
register’s address, relative to that GPIO port’s base address:  
GPIO Port A: 0x4000.4000  
GPIO Port B: 0x4000.5000  
GPIO Port C: 0x4000.6000  
GPIO Port D: 0x4000.7000  
GPIO Port E: 0x4002.4000  
Important: The GPIO registers in this chapter are duplicated in each GPIO block, however,  
depending on the block, all eight bits may not be connected to a GPIO pad. In those  
cases, writing to those unconnected bits has no effect and reading those unconnected  
bits returns no meaningful data.

Note: The default reset value for the GPIOAFSEL register is 0x0000.0000 for all GPIO pins, with  
the exception of the five JTAG pins (PB7 and PC[3:0]). These five pins default to JTAG  
functionality. Because of this, the default reset value of GPIOAFSEL for GPIO Port B is  
0x0000.0080 while the default reset value for Port C is 0x0000.000F.

Preliminary  
General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)  
Register 1: GPIO Data (GPIODATA), offset 0x000  
The GPIODATA register is the data register. In software control mode, values written in the  
GPIODATA register are transferred onto the GPIO port pins if the respective pins have been  
configured as outputs through the GPIO Direction (GPIODIR) register (see page 127).  
In order to write to GPIODATA, the corresponding bits in the mask, resulting from the address bus  
bits [9:2], must be High. Otherwise, the bit values remain unchanged by the write.  
Similarly, the values read from this register are determined for each bit by the mask bit derived from  
the address used to access the data register, bits [9:2]. Bits that are 1 in the address mask cause  
the corresponding bits in GPIODATA to be read, and bits that are 0 in the address mask cause the  
corresponding bits in GPIODATA to be read as 0, regardless of their value.  
A read from GPIODATA returns the last bit value written if the respective pins are configured as  
outputs, or it returns the value on the corresponding input pin when these are configured as inputs.  
All bits are cleared by a reset.

GPIO Data  
This register is virtually mapped to 256 locations in the address space.  
To facilitate the reading and writing of data to these registers by  
independent drivers, the data read from and the data written to the  
registers are masked by the eight address lines ipaddr[9:2]. Reads  
from this register return its current state. Writes to this register only affect  
bits that are not masked by ipaddr[9:2] and are configured as  
outputs. See “Data Register Operation” on page 120 for examples of  
reads and writes.

the corresponding pin to be an output, while bits set to 0 configure the pins to be inputs. All bits are  
cleared by a reset, meaning all GPIO pins are inputs by default.

LM3S300 Microcontroller  
Register 10: GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL), offset 0x420  
The GPIOAFSEL register is the mode control select register. Writing a 1 to any bit in this register  
selects the hardware control for the corresponding GPIO line. All bits are cleared by a reset, therefore  
no GPIO line is set to hardware control by default.  
Important: All GPIO pins are inputs by default (GPIODIR=0 and GPIOAFSEL=0), with the exception  
of the five JTAG pins (PB7 and PC[3:0]). The JTAG pins default to their JTAG  
functionality (GPIOAFSEL=1). A Power-On-Reset (POR) or asserting an external reset  
(RST) puts both groups of pins back to their default state.  
Caution – If the JTAG pins are used as GPIOs in a design, PB7 and PC2 cannot have external pull-down  
resistors connected to both of them at the same time. If both pins are pulled Low during reset, the  
controller has unpredictable behavior. If this happens, remove one or both of the pull-down resistors,  
and apply RST or power-cycle the part.  
In addition, it is possible to create a software sequence that prevents the debugger from connecting to  
the Stellaris® microcontroller. If the program code loaded into flash immediately changes the JTAG  
pins to their GPIO functionality, the debugger may not have enough time to connect and halt the  
controller before the JTAG pin functionality switches. This may lock the debugger out of the part. This  
can be avoided with a software routine that restores JTAG functionality based on an external or software  
trigger.

General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)  
Register 14: GPIO Open Drain Select (GPIOODR), offset 0x50C  
The GPIOODR register is the open drain control register. Setting a bit in this register enables the  
open drain configuration of the corresponding GPIO pad. When open drain mode is enabled, the  
corresponding bit should also be set in the GPIO Digital Input Enable (GPIODEN) register (see  
page 144). Corresponding bits in the drive strength registers (GPIODR2R, GPIODR4R, GPIODR8R,  
and GPIOSLR ) can be set to achieve the desired rise and fall times. The GPIO acts as an open  
drain input if the corresponding bit in the GPIODIR register is set to 0; and as an open drain output  
when set to 1.  
When using the I2C module, the GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL) register bit for  
PB2 and PB3 should be set to 1 (see examples in “Initialization and Configuration” on page 122).

General-Purpose Timers  
Programmable timers can be used to count or time external events that drive the Timer input pins.  
The Stellaris® General-Purpose Timer Module (GPTM) contains three GPTM blocks (Timer0, Timer1,  
and Timer 2). Each GPTM block provides two 16-bit timer/counters (referred to as TimerA and  
TimerB) that can be configured to operate independently as timers or event counters, or configured  
to operate as one 32-bit timer or one 32-bit Real-Time Clock (RTC).  
Note: Timer2 is an internal timer and can only be used to generate internal interrupts.  
The General-Purpose Timer Module is one timing resource available on the Stellaris® microcontrollers.  
Other timer resources include the System Timer (SysTick) (see “System Timer  
(SysTick)” on page 31).  
The following modes are supported:  
32-bit Timer modes  
Programmable one-shot timer  
Programmable periodic timer  
Real-Time Clock using 32.768-KHz input clock  
Software-controlled event stalling (excluding RTC mode)  
16-bit Timer modes  
General-purpose timer function with an 8-bit prescaler (for one-shot and periodic modes only)  
Programmable one-shot timer  
Programmable periodic timer  
Software-controlled event stalling  
16-bit Input Capture modes  
Input edge count capture  
Input edge time capture  
16-bit PWM mode  
Simple PWM mode with software-programmable output inversion of the PWM signal

Functional Description  
The main components of each GPTM block are two free-running 16-bit up/down counters (referred  
to as TimerA and TimerB), two 16-bit match registers, two prescaler match registers, and two 16-bit  
load/initialization registers and their associated control functions. The exact functionality of each  
GPTM is controlled by software and configured through the register interface.  
Software configures the GPTM using the GPTM Configuration (GPTMCFG) register (see page 169),  
the GPTM TimerA Mode (GPTMTAMR) register (see page 170), and the GPTM TimerB Mode  
(GPTMTBMR) register (see page 172). When in one of the 32-bit modes, the timer can only act as  
a 32-bit timer. However, when configured in 16-bit mode, the GPTM can have its two 16-bit timers  
configured in any combination of the 16-bit modes.  
9.2.1  
GPTM Reset Conditions  
After reset has been applied to the GPTM module, the module is in an inactive state, and all control  
registers are cleared and in their default states. Counters TimerA and TimerB are initialized to  
0xFFFF, along with their corresponding load registers: the GPTM TimerA Interval Load  
(GPTMTAILR) register (see page 183) and the GPTM TimerB Interval Load (GPTMTBILR) register  
(see page 184). The prescale counters are initialized to 0x00: the GPTM TimerA Prescale  
(GPTMTAPR) register (see page 187) and the GPTM TimerB Prescale (GPTMTBPR) register (see  
page 188).  
9.2.2  
32-Bit Timer Operating Modes  
Note: Both the odd- and even-numbered CCP pins are used for 16-bit mode. Only the  
even-numbered CCP pins are used for 32-bit mode.

Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
This section describes the three GPTM 32-bit timer modes (One-Shot, Periodic, and RTC) and their  
configuration.  
The GPTM is placed into 32-bit mode by writing a 0 (One-Shot/Periodic 32-bit timer mode) or a 1  
(RTC mode) to the GPTM Configuration (GPTMCFG) register. In both configurations, certain GPTM  
registers are concatenated to form pseudo 32-bit registers. These registers include:  
GPTM TimerA Interval Load (GPTMTAILR) register [15:0], see page 183  
GPTM TimerB Interval Load (GPTMTBILR) register [15:0], see page 184  
GPTM TimerA (GPTMTAR) register [15:0], see page 191  
GPTM TimerB (GPTMTBR) register [15:0], see page 192  
In the 32-bit modes, the GPTM translates a 32-bit write access to GPTMTAILR into a write access  
to both GPTMTAILR and GPTMTBILR. The resulting word ordering for such a write operation is:  
GPTMTBILR[15:0]:GPTMTAILR[15:0]  
Likewise, a read access to GPTMTAR returns the value:  
GPTMTBR[15:0]:GPTMTAR[15:0]  
9.2.2.1 32-Bit One-Shot/Periodic Timer Mode  
In 32-bit one-shot and periodic timer modes, the concatenated versions of the TimerA and TimerB  
registers are configured as a 32-bit down-counter. The selection of one-shot or periodic mode is  
determined by the value written to the TAMR field of the GPTM TimerA Mode (GPTMTAMR) register  
(see page 170), and there is no need to write to the GPTM TimerB Mode (GPTMTBMR) register.  
When software writes the TAEN bit in the GPTM Control (GPTMCTL) register (see page 174), the  
timer begins counting down from its preloaded value. Once the 0x0000.0000 state is reached, the  
timer reloads its start value from the concatenated GPTMTAILR on the next cycle. If configured to  
be a one-shot timer, the timer stops counting and clears the TAEN bit in the GPTMCTL register. If  
configured as a periodic timer, it continues counting.  
In addition to reloading the count value, the GPTM generates interrupts and output triggers when  
it reaches the 0x0000000 state. The GPTM sets the TATORIS bit in the GPTM Raw Interrupt Status  
(GPTMRIS) register (see page 179), and holds it until it is cleared by writing the GPTM Interrupt  
Clear (GPTMICR) register (see page 181). If the time-out interrupt is enabled in the GPTM Interrupt  
Mask (GPTIMR) register (see page 177), the GPTM also sets the TATOMIS bit in the GPTM Masked  
Interrupt Status (GPTMMIS) register (see page 180).  
The output trigger is a one-clock-cycle pulse that is asserted when the counter hits the 0x0000.0000  
state, and deasserted on the following clock cycle. It is enabled by setting the TAOTE bit in GPTMCTL.  
If software reloads the GPTMTAILR register while the counter is running, the counter loads the new  
value on the next clock cycle and continues counting from the new value.  
If the TASTALL bit in the GPTMCTL register is asserted, the timer freezes counting until the signal  
is deasserted.  
9.2.2.2 32-Bit Real-Time Clock Timer Mode  
In Real-Time Clock (RTC) mode, the concatenated versions of the TimerA and TimerB registers  
are configured as a 32-bit up-counter. When RTC mode is selected for the first time, the counter is

General-Purpose Timers  
loaded with a value of 0x0000.0001. All subsequent load values must be written to the GPTM TimerA  
Match (GPTMTAMATCHR) register (see page 185) by the controller.  
The input clock on the CCP0, CCP2, or CCP4 pins is required to be 32.768 KHz in RTC mode. The  
clock signal is then divided down to a 1 Hz rate and is passed along to the input of the 32-bit counter.  
When software writes the TAEN bit inthe GPTMCTL register, the counter starts counting up from its  
preloaded value of 0x0000.0001. When the current count value matches the preloaded value in the  
GPTMTAMATCHR register, it rolls over to a value of 0x0000.0000 and continues counting until  
either a hardware reset, or it is disabled by software (clearing the TAEN bit). When a match occurs,  
the GPTM asserts the RTCRIS bit in GPTMRIS. If the RTC interrupt is enabled in GPTIMR, the  
GPTM also sets the RTCMIS bit in GPTMISR and generates a controller interrupt. The status flags  
are cleared by writing the RTCCINT bit in GPTMICR.  
If the TASTALL and/or TBSTALL bits in the GPTMCTL register are set, the timer does not freeze if  
the RTCEN bit is set in GPTMCTL.  
9.2.3  
16-Bit Timer Operating Modes  
The GPTM is placed into global 16-bit mode by writing a value of 0x4 to the GPTM Configuration  
(GPTMCFG) register (see page 169). This section describes each of the GPTM 16-bit modes of  
operation. TimerA and TimerB have identical modes, so a single description is given using an n to  
reference both.  
9.2.3.1 16-Bit One-Shot/Periodic Timer Mode  
In 16-bit one-shot and periodic timer modes, the timer is configured as a 16-bit down-counter with  
an optional 8-bit prescaler that effectively extends the counting range of the timer to 24 bits. The  
selection of one-shot or periodic mode is determined by the value written to the TnMR field of the  
GPTMTnMR register. The optional prescaler is loaded into the GPTM Timern Prescale (GPTMTnPR)  
register.  
When software writes the TnEN bit in the GPTMCTL register, the timer begins counting down from  
its preloaded value. Once the 0x0000 state is reached, the timer reloads its start value from  
GPTMTnILR and GPTMTnPR on the next cycle. If configured to be a one-shot timer, the timer stops  
counting and clears the TnEN bit in the GPTMCTL register. If configured as a periodic timer, it  
continues counting.  
In addition to reloading the count value, the timer generates interrupts and output triggers when it  
reaches the 0x0000 state. The GPTM sets the TnTORIS bit in the GPTMRIS register, and holds it  
until it is cleared by writing the GPTMICR register. If the time-out interrupt is enabled in GPTIMR,  
the GPTM also sets the TnTOMIS bit in GPTMISR and generates a controller interrupt.  
The output trigger is a one-clock-cycle pulse that is asserted when the counter hits the 0x0000 state,  
and deasserted on the following clock cycle. It is enabled by setting the TnOTE bit in the GPTMCTL  
register, and can trigger SoC-level events.  
If software reloads the GPTMTAILR register while the counter is running, the counter loads the new  
value on the next clock cycle and continues counting from the new value.  
If the TnSTALL bit in the GPTMCTL register is enabled, the timer freezes counting until the signal  
is deasserted.  
The following example shows a variety of configurations for a 16-bit free running timer while using  
the prescaler. All values assume a 25-MHz clock with Tc=20 ns (clock period).

9.2.3.2 16-Bit Input Edge Count Mode  
In Edge Count mode, the timer is configured as a down-counter capable of capturing three types  
of events: rising edge, falling edge, or both. To place the timer in Edge Count mode, the TnCMR bit  
of the GPTMTnMR register must be set to 0. The type of edge that the timer counts is determined  
by the TnEVENT fields of the GPTMCTL register. During initialization, the GPTM Timern Match  
(GPTMTnMATCHR) register is configured so that the difference between the value in the  
GPTMTnILR register and the GPTMTnMATCHR register equals the number of edge events that  
must be counted.  
When software writes the TnEN bit in the GPTM Control (GPTMCTL) register, the timer is enabled  
for event capture. Each input event on the CCP pin decrements the counter by 1 until the event count  
matches GPTMTnMATCHR. When the counts match, the GPTM asserts the CnMRIS bit in the  
GPTMRIS register (and the CnMMIS bit, if the interrupt is not masked). The counter is then reloaded  
using the value in GPTMTnILR, and stopped since the GPTM automatically clears the TnEN bit in  
the GPTMCTL register. Once the event count has been reached, all further events are ignored until  
TnEN is re-enabled by software.  
Figure 9-2 on page 162 shows how input edge count mode works. In this case, the timer start value  
is set to GPTMnILR =0x000A and the match value is set to GPTMnMATCHR =0x0006 so that four  
edge events are counted. The counter is configured to detect both edges of the input signal.  
Note that the last two edges are not counted since the timer automatically clears the TnEN bit after  
the current count matches the value in the GPTMnMR register.

9.2.3.3 16-Bit Input Edge Time Mode  
Note: The prescaler is not available in 16-Bit Input Edge Time mode.  
In Edge Time mode, the timer is configured as a free-running down-counter initialized to the value  
loaded in the GPTMTnILR register (or 0xFFFF at reset). This mode allows for event capture of both  
rising and falling edges. The timer is placed into Edge Time mode by setting the TnCMR bit in the  
GPTMTnMR register, and the type of event that the timer captures is determined by the TnEVENT  
fields of the GPTMCnTL register.  
When software writes the TnEN bit in the GPTMCTL register, the timer is enabled for event capture.  
When the selected input event is detected, the current Tn counter value is captured in the GPTMTnR  
register and is available to be read by the controller. The GPTM then asserts the CnERIS bit (and  
the CnEMIS bit, if the interrupt is not masked).  
After an event has been captured, the timer does not stop counting. It continues to count until the  
TnEN bit is cleared. When the timer reaches the 0x0000 state, it is reloaded with the value from the  
GPTMnILR register.  
Figure 9-3 on page 163 shows how input edge timing mode works. In the diagram, it is assumed that  
the start value of the timer is the default value of 0xFFFF, and the timer is configured to capture  
rising edge events.  
Each time a rising edge event is detected, the current count value is loaded into the GPTMTnR  
register, and is held there until another rising edge is detected (at which point the new count value  
is loaded into GPTMTnR).

9.2.3.4 16-Bit PWM Mode  
The GPTM supports a simple PWM generation mode. In PWM mode, the timer is configured as a  
down-counter with a start value (and thus period) defined by GPTMTnILR. PWM mode is enabled  
with the GPTMTnMR register by setting the TnAMS bit to 0x1, the TnCMR bit to 0x0, and the TnMR  
field to 0x2.  
When software writes the TnEN bit in the GPTMCTL register, the counter begins counting down  
until it reaches the 0x0000 state. On the next counter cycle, the counter reloads its start value from  
GPTMTnILR (and GPTMTnPR if using a prescaler) and continues counting until disabled by software  
clearing the TnEN bit in the GPTMCTL register. No interrupts or status bits are asserted in PWM  
mode.  
The output PWM signal asserts when the counter is at the value of the GPTMTnILR register (its  
start state), and is deasserted when the counter value equals the value in the GPTM Timern Match  
Register (GPTMnMATCHR). Software has the capability of inverting the output PWM signal by  
setting the TnPWML bit in the GPTMCTL register.  
Figure 9-4 on page 164 shows how to generate an output PWM with a 1-ms period and a 66% duty  
cycle assuming a 50-MHz input clock and TnPWML =0 (duty cycle would be 33% for the TnPWML  
=1 configuration). For this example, the start value is GPTMnIRL=0xC350 and the match value is  
GPTMnMR=0x411A.

Initialization and Configuration  
To use the general-purpose timers, the peripheral clock must be enabled by setting the TIMER0,  
TIMER1, and TIMER2 bits in the RCGC1 register.  
This section shows module initialization and configuration examples for each of the supported timer  
modes.  
9.3.1  
32-Bit One-Shot/Periodic Timer Mode  
The GPTM is configured for 32-bit One-Shot and Periodic modes by the following sequence:  
1. Ensure the timer is disabled (the TAEN bit in the GPTMCTL register is cleared) before making  
any changes.  
2. Write the GPTM Configuration Register (GPTMCFG) with a value of 0x0.  
3. Set the TAMR field in the GPTM TimerA Mode Register (GPTMTAMR):  
a. Write a value of 0x1 for One-Shot mode.  
b. Write a value of 0x2 for Periodic mode.  
4. Load the start value into the GPTM TimerA Interval Load Register (GPTMTAILR).  
5. If interrupts are required, set the TATOIM bit in the GPTM Interrupt Mask Register (GPTMIMR).  
6. Set the TAEN bit in the GPTMCTL register to enable the timer and start counting.  
164  
October 01, 2007

LM3S300 Microcontroller  
7. Poll the TATORIS bit in the GPTMRIS register or wait for the interrupt to be generated (if enabled).  
In both cases, the status flags are cleared by writing a 1 to the TATOCINT bit of the GPTM  
Interrupt Clear Register (GPTMICR).  
In One-Shot mode, the timer stops counting after step 7 on page 165. To re-enable the timer, repeat  
the sequence. A timer configured in Periodic mode does not stop counting after it times out.  
9.3.2  
32-Bit Real-Time Clock (RTC) Mode  
To use the RTC mode, the timer must have a 32.768-KHz input signal on its CCP0, CCP2, or CCP4  
pins. To enable the RTC feature, follow these steps:  
1. Ensure the timer is disabled (the TAEN bit is cleared) before making any changes.  
2. Write the GPTM Configuration Register (GPTMCFG) with a value of 0x1.  
3. Write the desired match value to the GPTM TimerA Match Register (GPTMTAMATCHR).  
4. Set/clear the RTCEN bit in the GPTM Control Register (GPTMCTL) as desired.  
5. If interrupts are required, set the RTCIM bit in the GPTM Interrupt Mask Register (GPTMIMR).  
6. Set the TAEN bit in the GPTMCTL register to enable the timer and start counting.  
When the timer count equals the value in the GPTMTAMATCHR register, the counter is re-loaded  
with 0x0000.0000 and begins counting. If an interrupt is enabled, it does not have to be cleared.  
9.3.3  
16-Bit One-Shot/Periodic Timer Mode  
A timer is configured for 16-bit One-Shot and Periodic modes by the following sequence:  
1. Ensure the timer is disabled (the TnEN bit is cleared) before making any changes.  
2. Write the GPTM Configuration Register (GPTMCFG) with a value of 0x4.  
3. Set the TnMR field in the GPTM Timer Mode (GPTMTnMR) register:  
a. Write a value of 0x1 for One-Shot mode.  
b. Write a value of 0x2 for Periodic mode.  
4. If a prescaler is to be used, write the prescale value to the GPTM Timern Prescale Register  
(GPTMTnPR).  
5. Load the start value into the GPTM Timer Interval Load Register (GPTMTnILR).  
6. If interrupts are required, set the TnTOIM bit in the GPTM Interrupt Mask Register (GPTMIMR).  
7. Set the TnEN bit in the GPTM Control Register (GPTMCTL) to enable the timer and start  
counting.  
8. Poll the TnTORIS bit in the GPTMRIS register or wait for the interrupt to be generated (if enabled).  
In both cases, the status flags are cleared by writing a 1 to the TnTOCINT bit of the GPTM  
Interrupt Clear Register (GPTMICR).

General-Purpose Timers  
In One-Shot mode, the timer stops counting after step 8 on page 165. To re-enable the timer, repeat  
the sequence. A timer configured in Periodic mode does not stop counting after it times out.  
9.3.4  
16-Bit Input Edge Count Mode  
A timer is configured to Input Edge Count mode by the following sequence:  
1. Ensure the timer is disabled (the TnEN bit is cleared) before making any changes.  
2. Write the GPTM Configuration (GPTMCFG) register with a value of 0x4.  
3. In the GPTM Timer Mode (GPTMTnMR) register, write the TnCMR field to 0x0 and the TnMR  
field to 0x3.  
4. Configure the type of event(s) that the timer captures by writing the TnEVENT field of the GPTM  
Control (GPTMCTL) register.  
5. Load the timer start value into the GPTM Timern Interval Load (GPTMTnILR) register.  
6. Load the desired event count into the GPTM Timern Match (GPTMTnMATCHR) register.  
7. If interrupts are required, set the CnMIM bit in the GPTM Interrupt Mask (GPTMIMR) register.  
8. Set the TnEN bit in the GPTMCTL register to enable the timer and begin waiting for edge events.  
9. Poll the CnMRIS bit in the GPTMRIS register or wait for the interrupt to be generated (if enabled).  
In both cases, the status flags are cleared by writing a 1 to the CnMCINT bit of the GPTM  
Interrupt Clear (GPTMICR) register.  
In Input Edge Count Mode, the timer stops after the desired number of edge events has been  
detected. To re-enable the timer, ensure that the TnEN bit is cleared and repeat step  
4 on page 166-step 9 on page 166.  
9.3.5  
16-Bit Input Edge Timing Mode  
A timer is configured to Input Edge Timing mode by the following sequence:  
1. Ensure the timer is disabled (the TnEN bit is cleared) before making any changes.  
2. Write the GPTM Configuration (GPTMCFG) register with a value of 0x4.  
3. In the GPTM Timer Mode (GPTMTnMR) register, write the TnCMR field to 0x1 and the TnMR  
field to 0x3.  
4. Configure the type of event that the timer captures by writing the TnEVENT field of the GPTM  
Control (GPTMCTL) register.  
5. Load the timer start value into the GPTM Timern Interval Load (GPTMTnILR) register.  
6. If interrupts are required, set the CnEIM bit in the GPTM Interrupt Mask (GPTMIMR) register.  
7. Set the TnEN bit in the GPTM Control (GPTMCTL) register to enable the timer and start counting.  
8. Poll the CnERIS bit in the GPTMRIS register or wait for the interrupt to be generated (if enabled).  
In both cases, the status flags are cleared by writing a 1 to the CnECINT bit of the GPTM

Interrupt Clear (GPTMICR) register. The time at which the event happened can be obtained  
by reading the GPTM Timern (GPTMTnR) register.  
In Input Edge Timing mode, the timer continues running after an edge event has been detected,  
but the timer interval can be changed at any time by writing the GPTMTnILR register. The change  
takes effect at the next cycle after the write.  
9.3.6  
16-Bit PWM Mode  
A timer is configured to PWM mode using the following sequence:  
1. Ensure the timer is disabled (the TnEN bit is cleared) before making any changes.  
2. Write the GPTM Configuration (GPTMCFG) register with a value of 0x4.  
3. In the GPTM Timer Mode (GPTMTnMR) register, set the TnAMS bit to 0x1, the TnCMR bit to  
0x0, and the TnMR field to 0x2.  
4. Configure the output state of the PWM signal (whether or not it is inverted) in the TnEVENT field  
of the GPTM Control (GPTMCTL) register.  
5. Load the timer start value into the GPTM Timern Interval Load (GPTMTnILR) register.  
6. Load the GPTM Timern Match (GPTMTnMATCHR) register with the desired value.  
7. If a prescaler is going to be used, configure the GPTM Timern Prescale (GPTMTnPR) register  
and the GPTM Timern Prescale Match (GPTMTnPMR) register.  
8. Set the TnEN bit in the GPTM Control (GPTMCTL) register to enable the timer and begin  
generation of the output PWM signal.  
In PWM Timing mode, the timer continues running after the PWM signal has been generated. The  
PWM period can be adjusted at any time by writing the GPTMTnILR register, and the change takes  
effect at the next cycle after the write.

Watchdog Timer  
A watchdog timer can generate nonmaskable interrupts (NMIs) or a reset when a time-out value is  
reached. The watchdog timer is used to regain control when a system has failed due to a software  
error or due to the failure of an external device to respond in the expected way.  
The Stellaris® Watchdog Timer module consists of a 32-bit down counter, a programmable load  
register, interrupt generation logic, a locking register, and user-enabled stalling.  
The Watchdog Timer can be configured to generate an interrupt to the controller on its first time-out,  
and to generate a reset signal on its second time-out. Once the Watchdog Timer has been configured,  
the lock register can be written to prevent the timer configuration from being inadvertently altered.

Functional Description  
The Watchdog Timer module generates the first time-out signal when the 32-bit counter reaches  
the zero state after being enabled; enabling the counter also enables the watchdog timer interrupt.  
After the first time-out event, the 32-bit counter is re-loaded with the value of the Watchdog Timer  
Load (WDTLOAD) register, and the timer resumes counting down from that value. Once the  
October 01, 2007  
193  
Preliminary  
Watchdog Timer  
Watchdog Timer has been configured, the Watchdog Timer Lock (WDTLOCK) register is written,  
which prevents the timer configuration from being inadvertently altered by software.  
If the timer counts down to its zero state again before the first time-out interrupt is cleared, and the  
reset signal has been enabled (via the WatchdogResetEnable function), the Watchdog timer  
asserts its reset signal to the system. If the interrupt is cleared before the 32-bit counter reaches its  
second time-out, the 32-bit counter is loaded with the value in the WDTLOAD register, and counting  
resumes from that value.  
If WDTLOAD is written with a new value while the Watchdog Timer counter is counting, then the  
counter is loaded with the new value and continues counting.  
Writing to WDTLOAD does not clear an active interrupt. An interrupt must be specifically cleared  
by writing to the Watchdog Interrupt Clear (WDTICR) register.  
The Watchdog module interrupt and reset generation can be enabled or disabled as required. When  
the interrupt is re-enabled, the 32-bit counter is preloaded with the load register value and not its  
last state.  
10.3  
Initialization and Configuration  
To use the WDT, its peripheral clock must be enabled by setting the WDT bit in the RCGC0 register.  
The Watchdog Timer is configured using the following sequence:  
1. Load the WDTLOAD register with the desired timer load value.  
2. If the Watchdog is configured to trigger system resets, set the RESEN bit in the WDTCTL register.  
3. Set the INTEN bit in the WDTCTL register to enable the Watchdog and lock the control register.  
If software requires that all of the watchdog registers are locked, the Watchdog Timer module can  
be fully locked by writing any value to the WDTLOCK register. To unlock the Watchdog Timer, write  
a value of 0x1ACC.E551.  
10.4  
Register Map  
Table 10-1 on page 194 lists the Watchdog registers. The offset listed is a hexadecimal increment

Register 8: Watchdog Lock (WDTLOCK), offset 0xC00  
Writing 0x1ACC.E551 to the WDTLOCK register enables write access to all other registers. Writing  
any other value to the WDTLOCK register re-enables the locked state for register writes to all the  
other registers. Reading the WDTLOCK register returns the lock status rather than the 32-bit value  
written. Therefore, when write accesses are disabled, reading the WDTLOCK register returns  
0x0000.0001 (when locked; otherwise, the returned value is 0x0000.0000 (unlocked)).

Functional Description  
Each Stellaris® UART performs the functions of parallel-to-serial and serial-to-parallel conversions.  
It is similar in functionality to a 16C550 UART, but is not register compatible.  
The UART is configured for transmit and/or receive via the TXE and RXE bits of the UART Control  
(UARTCTL) register (see page 233). Transmit and receive are both enabled out of reset. Before any  
control registers are programmed, the UART must be disabled by clearing the UARTEN bit in  
UARTCTL. If the UART is disabled during a TX or RX operation, the current transaction is completed  
prior to the UART stopping.  
11.2.1  
Transmit/Receive Logic  
The transmit logic performs parallel-to-serial conversion on the data read from the transmit FIFO.  
The control logic outputs the serial bit stream beginning with a start bit, and followed by the data  
bits (LSB first), parity bit, and the stop bits according to the programmed configuration in the control  
registers. See Figure 11-2 on page 218 for details.  
October 01, 2007  
217  
Preliminary  
Universal Asynchronous Receivers/Transmitters (UARTs)  
The receive logic performs serial-to-parallel conversion on the received bit stream after a valid start  
pulse has been detected. Overrun, parity, frame error checking, and line-break detection are also  
performed, and their status accompanies the data that is written to the receive FIFO.

11.2.2  
Baud-Rate Generation  
The baud-rate divisor is a 22-bit number consisting of a 16-bit integer and a 6-bit fractional part.  
The number formed by these two values is used by the baud-rate generator to determine the bit  
period. Having a fractional baud-rate divider allows the UART to generate all the standard baud  
rates.  
The 16-bit integer is loaded through the UART Integer Baud-Rate Divisor (UARTIBRD) register  
(see page 229) and the 6-bit fractional part is loaded with the UART Fractional Baud-Rate Divisor  
(UARTFBRD) register (see page 230). The baud-rate divisor (BRD) has the following relationship  
to the system clock (where BRDI is the integer part of the BRD and BRDF is the fractional part,  
separated by a decimal place.):  
BRD = BRDI + BRDF = SysClk / (16 * Baud Rate)  
The 6-bit fractional number (that is to be loaded into the DIVFRAC bit field in the UARTFBRD register)  
can be calculated by taking the fractional part of the baud-rate divisor, multiplying it by 64, and  
adding 0.5 to account for rounding errors:  
UARTFBRD[DIVFRAC] = integer(BRDF * 64 + 0.5)  
The UART generates an internal baud-rate reference clock at 16x the baud-rate (referred to as  
Baud16). This reference clock is divided by 16 to generate the transmit clock, and is used for error  
detection during receive operations.  
Along with the UART Line Control, High Byte (UARTLCRH) register (see page 231), the UARTIBRD  
and UARTFBRD registers form an internal 30-bit register. This internal register is only updated  
when a write operation to UARTLCRH is performed, so any changes to the baud-rate divisor must  
be followed by a write to the UARTLCRH register for the changes to take effect.  
To update the baud-rate registers, there are four possible sequences:  
UARTIBRD write, UARTFBRD write, and UARTLCRH write  
UARTFBRD write, UARTIBRD write, and UARTLCRH write  
UARTIBRD write and UARTLCRH write  
UARTFBRD write and UARTLCRH write

11.2.3  
Data Transmission  
Data received or transmitted is stored in two 16-byte FIFOs, though the receive FIFO has an extra  
four bits per character for status information. For transmission, data is written into the transmit FIFO.  
If the UART is enabled, it causes a data frame to start transmitting with the parameters indicated  
in the UARTLCRH register. Data continues to be transmitted until there is no data left in the transmit  
FIFO. The BUSY bit in the UART Flag (UARTFR) register (see page 227) is asserted as soon as  
data is written to the transmit FIFO (that is, if the FIFO is non-empty) and remains asserted while  
data is being transmitted. The BUSY bit is negated only when the transmit FIFO is empty, and the  
last character has been transmitted from the shift register, including the stop bits. The UART can  
indicate that it is busy even though the UART may no longer be enabled.  
When the receiver is idle (the UnRx is continuously 1) and the data input goes Low (a start bit has  
been received), the receive counter begins running and data is sampled on the eighth cycle of  
Baud16 (described in “Transmit/Receive Logic” on page 217).  
The start bit is valid if UnRx is still low on the eighth cycle of Baud16, otherwise a false start bit is  
detected and it is ignored. Start bit errors can be viewed in the UART Receive Status (UARTRSR)  
register (see page 225). If the start bit was valid, successive data bits are sampled on every 16th  
cycle of Baud16 (that is, one bit period later) according to the programmed length of the data  
characters. The parity bit is then checked if parity mode was enabled. Data length and parity are  
defined in the UARTLCRH register.  
Lastly, a valid stop bit is confirmed if UnRx is High, otherwise a framing error has occurred. When  
a full word is received, the data is stored in the receive FIFO, with any error bits associated with  
that word.  
11.2.4  
FIFO Operation  
The UART has two 16-entry FIFOs; one for transmit and one for receive. Both FIFOs are accessed  
via the UART Data (UARTDR) register (see page 223). Read operations of the UARTDR register  
return a 12-bit value consisting of 8 data bits and 4 error flags while write operations place 8-bit data  
in the transmit FIFO.  
Out of reset, both FIFOs are disabled and act as 1-byte-deep holding registers. The FIFOs are  
enabled by setting the FEN bit in UARTLCRH (page 231).  
FIFO status can be monitored via the UART Flag (UARTFR) register (see page 227) and the UART  
Receive Status (UARTRSR) register. Hardware monitors empty, full and overrun conditions. The  
UARTFR register contains empty and full flags (TXFE, TXFF, RXFE, and RXFF bits) and the  
UARTRSR register shows overrun status via the OE bit.  
The trigger points at which the FIFOs generate interrupts is controlled via the UART Interrupt FIFO  
Level Select (UARTIFLS) register (see page 234). Both FIFOs can be individually configured to  
trigger interrupts at different levels. Available configurations include 1/8, ¼, ½, ¾, and 7/8. For  
example, if the ¼ option is selected for the receive FIFO, the UART generates a receive interrupt  
after 4 data bytes are received. Out of reset, both FIFOs are configured to trigger an interrupt at the  
½ mark.  
11.2.5  
Interrupts  
The UART can generate interrupts when the following conditions are observed:  
Overrun Error  
Break Error  
October 01, 2007  
219  
Preliminary  
Universal Asynchronous Receivers/Transmitters (UARTs)  
Parity Error  
Framing Error  
Receive Timeout  
Transmit (when condition defined in the TXIFLSEL bit in the UARTIFLS register is met)  
Receive (when condition defined in the RXIFLSEL bit in the UARTIFLS register is met)  
All of the interrupt events are ORed together before being sent to the interrupt controller, so the  
UART can only generate a single interrupt request to the controller at any given time. Software can  
service multiple interrupt events in a single interrupt service routine by reading the UART Masked  
Interrupt Status (UARTMIS) register (see page 239).  
The interrupt events that can trigger a controller-level interrupt are defined in the UART Interrupt  
Mask (UARTIM ) register (see page 236) by setting the corresponding IM bit to 1. If interrupts are  
not used, the raw interrupt status is always visible via the UART Raw Interrupt Status (UARTRIS)  
register (see page 238).  
Interrupts are always cleared (for both the UARTMIS and UARTRIS registers) by setting the  
corresponding bit in the UART Interrupt Clear (UARTICR) register (see page 240).  
The receive timeout interrupt is asserted when the receive FIFO is not empty, and no further data  
is received over a 32-bit period. The receive timeout interrupt is cleared either when the FIFO  
becomes empty through reading all the data (or by reading the holding register), or when a 1 is  
written to the corresponding bit in the UARTICR register.  
11.2.6  
Loopback Operation  
The UART can be placed into an internal loopback mode for diagnostic or debug work. This is  
accomplished by setting the LBE bit in the UARTCTL register (see page 233). In loopback mode,  
data transmitted on UnTx is received on the UnRx input.  
11.3  
Initialization and Configuration  
To use the UARTs, the peripheral clock must be enabled by setting the UART0 or UART1 bits in the  
RCGC1 register.  
This section discusses the steps that are required for using a UART module. For this example, the  
system clock is assumed to be 20 MHz and the desired UART configuration is:  
115200 baud rate  
Data length of 8 bits  
One stop bit  
No parity  
FIFOs disabled  
No interrupts  
The first thing to consider when programming the UART is the baud-rate divisor (BRD), since the  
UARTIBRD and UARTFBRD registers must be written before the UARTLCRH register. Using the  
equation described in “Baud-Rate Generation” on page 218, the BRD can be calculated:  
220  
October 01, 2007  
Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
BRD = 20,000,000 / (16 * 115,200) = 10.8507  
which means that the DIVINT field of the UARTIBRD register (see page 229) should be set to 10.  
The value to be loaded into the UARTFBRD register (see page 230) is calculated by the equation:  
UARTFBRD[DIVFRAC] = integer(0.8507 * 64 + 0.5) = 54  
With the BRD values in hand, the UART configuration is written to the module in the following order:  
1. Disable the UART by clearing the UARTEN bit in the UARTCTL register.  
2. Write the integer portion of the BRD to the UARTIBRD register.  
3. Write the fractional portion of the BRD to the UARTFBRD register.  
4. Write the desired serial parameters to the UARTLCRH register (in this case, a value of  
0x0000.0060).  
5. Enable the UART by setting the UARTEN bit in the UARTCTL register.  
11.4  
Register Map  
Table 11-1 on page 221 lists the UART registers. The offset listed is a hexadecimal increment to the  
register’s address, relative to that UART’s base address:  
UART0: 0x4000.C000  
UART1: 0x4000.D000  
Note: The UART must be disabled (see the UARTEN bit in the UARTCTL register on page 233)  
before any of the control registers are reprogrammed. When the UART is disabled during  
a TX or RX operation, the current transaction is completed prior to the UART stopping.

Register 1: UART Data (UARTDR), offset 0x000  
This register is the data register (the interface to the FIFOs).  
When FIFOs are enabled, data written to this location is pushed onto the transmit FIFO. If FIFOs  
are disabled, data is stored in the transmitter holding register (the bottom word of the transmit FIFO).  
A write to this register initiates a transmission from the UART.  
For received data, if the FIFO is enabled, the data byte and the 4-bit status (break, frame, parity,  
and overrun) is pushed onto the 12-bit wide receive FIFO. If FIFOs are disabled, the data byte and  
status are stored in the receiving holding register (the bottom word of the receive FIFO). The received  
data can be retrieved by reading this register.

UART Break Error  
This bit is set to 1 when a break condition is detected, indicating that  
the receive 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 received data input  
goes to a 1 (marking state) and the next valid start bit is received.

Register 2: UART Receive Status/Error Clear (UARTRSR/UARTECR), offset  
0x004  
The UARTRSR/UARTECR register is the receive status register/error clear register.  
In addition to the UARTDR register, receive status can also be read from the UARTRSR register.  
If the status is read from this register, then the status information corresponds to the entry read from  
UARTDR prior to reading UARTRSR. The status information for overrun is set immediately when  
an overrun condition occurs.  
A write of any value to the UARTECR register clears the framing, parity, break, and overrun errors.  
All the bits are cleared to 0 on reset.

To enable the UART module, the UARTEN bit must be set to 1. If software requires a configuration  
change in the module, the UARTEN bit must be cleared before the configuration changes are written.  
If the UART is disabled during a transmit or receive operation, the current transaction is completed  
prior to the UART stopping.

Register 8: UART Interrupt FIFO Level Select (UARTIFLS), offset 0x034  
The UARTIFLS register is the interrupt FIFO level select register. You can use this register to define  
the FIFO level at which the TXRIS and RXRIS bits in the UARTRIS register are triggered.  
The interrupts are generated based on a transition through a level rather than being based on the  
level. That is, the interrupts are generated when the fill level progresses through the trigger level.  
For example, if the receive trigger level is set to the half-way mark, the interrupt is triggered as the  
module is receiving the 9th character.  
Out of reset, the TXIFLSEL and RXIFLSEL bits are configured so that the FIFOs trigger an interrupt  
at the half-way mark.

Functional Description  
The SSI performs serial-to-parallel conversion on data received from a peripheral device. The CPU  
accesses data, control, and status information. The transmit and receive paths are buffered with  
254  
October 01, 2007  
Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
internal FIFO memories allowing up to eight 16-bit values to be stored independently in both transmit  
and receive modes.  
12.2.1  
Bit Rate Generation  
The SSI includes a programmable bit rate clock divider and prescaler to generate the serial output  
clock. Bit rates are supported to 2 MHz and higher, although maximum bit rate is determined by  
peripheral devices.  
The serial bit rate is derived by dividing down the 25-MHz input clock. The clock is first divided by  
an even prescale value CPSDVSR from 2 to 254, which is programmed in the SSI Clock Prescale  
(SSICPSR) register (see page 273). The clock is further divided by a value from 1 to 256, which is  
1 + SCR, where SCR is the value programmed in the SSI Control0 (SSICR0) register (see page 266).  
The frequency of the output clock SSIClk is defined by:  
FSSIClk = FSysClk / (CPSDVSR * (1 + SCR))  
Note that although the SSIClk transmit clock can theoretically be 12.5 MHz, the module may not  
be able to operate at that speed. For master mode, the system clock must be at least two times  
faster than the SSIClk. For slave mode, the system clock must be at least 12 times faster than the  
SSIClk.  
See “Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI)” on page 352 to view SSI timing parameters.  
12.2.2  
FIFO Operation  
12.2.2.1 Transmit FIFO  
The common transmit FIFO is a 16-bit wide, 8-locations deep, first-in, first-out memory buffer. The  
CPU writes data to the FIFO by writing the SSI Data (SSIDR) register (see page 270), and data is  
stored in the FIFO until it is read out by the transmission logic.  
When configured as a master or a slave, parallel data is written into the transmit FIFO prior to serial  
conversion and transmission to the attached slave or master, respectively, through the SSITx pin.  
12.2.2.2 Receive FIFO  
The common receive FIFO is a 16-bit wide, 8-locations deep, first-in, first-out memory buffer.  
Received data from the serial interface is stored in the buffer until read out by the CPU, which  
accesses the read FIFO by reading the SSIDR register.  
When configured as a master or slave, serial data received through the SSIRx pin is registered  
prior to parallel loading into the attached slave or master receive FIFO, respectively.  
12.2.3  
Interrupts  
The SSI can generate interrupts when the following conditions are observed:  
Transmit FIFO service  
Receive FIFO service  
Receive FIFO time-out  
Receive FIFO overrun

Preliminary  
Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI)  
All of the interrupt events are ORed together before being sent to the interrupt controller, so the SSI  
can only generate a single interrupt request to the controller at any given time. You can mask each  
of the four individual maskable interrupts by setting the appropriate bits in the SSI Interrupt Mask  
(SSIIM) register (see page 274). Setting the appropriate mask bit to 1 enables the interrupt.  
Provision of the individual outputs, as well as a combined interrupt output, allows use of either a  
global interrupt service routine, or modular device drivers to handle interrupts. The transmit and  
receive dynamic dataflow interrupts have been separated from the status interrupts so that data  
can be read or written in response to the FIFO trigger levels. The status of the individual interrupt  
sources can be read from the SSI Raw Interrupt Status (SSIRIS) and SSI Masked Interrupt Status  
(SSIMIS) registers (see page 276 and page 277, respectively).  
12.2.4  
Frame Formats  
Each data frame is between 4 and 16 bits long, depending on the size of data programmed, and is  
transmitted starting with the MSB. There are three basic frame types that can be selected:  
Texas Instruments synchronous serial  
Freescale SPI  
MICROWIRE  
For all three formats, the serial clock (SSIClk) is held inactive while the SSI is idle, and SSIClk  
transitions at the programmed frequency only during active transmission or reception of data. The  
idle state of SSIClk is utilized to provide a receive timeout indication that occurs when the receive  
FIFO still contains data after a timeout period.  
For Freescale SPI and MICROWIRE frame formats, the serial frame (SSIFss ) pin is active Low,  
and is asserted (pulled down) during the entire transmission of the frame.  
For Texas Instruments synchronous serial frame format, the SSIFss pin is pulsed for one serial  
clock period starting at its rising edge, prior to the transmission of each frame. For this frame format,  
both the SSI and the off-chip slave device drive their output data on the rising edge of SSIClk, and  
latch data from the other device on the falling edge.  
Unlike the full-duplex transmission of the other two frame formats, the MICROWIRE format uses a  
special master-slave messaging technique, which operates at half-duplex. In this mode, when a  
frame begins, an 8-bit control message is transmitted to the off-chip slave. During this transmit, no  
incoming data is received by the SSI. After the message has been sent, the off-chip slave decodes  
it and, after waiting one serial clock after the last bit of the 8-bit control message has been sent,  
responds with the requested data. The returned data can be 4 to 16 bits in length, making the total  
frame length anywhere from 13 to 25 bits.  
12.2.4.1 Texas Instruments Synchronous Serial Frame Format  
Figure 12-2 on page 257 shows the Texas Instruments synchronous serial frame format for a single  
transmitted frame.

In this mode, SSIClk and SSIFss are forced Low, and the transmit data line SSITx is tristated  
whenever the SSI is idle. Once the bottom entry of the transmit FIFO contains data, SSIFss is  
pulsed High for one SSIClk period. The value to be transmitted is also transferred from the transmit  
FIFO to the serial shift register of the transmit logic. On the next rising edge of SSIClk, the MSB  
of the 4 to 16-bit data frame is shifted out on the SSITx pin. Likewise, the MSB of the received data  
is shifted onto the SSIRx pin by the off-chip serial slave device.  
Both the SSI and the off-chip serial slave device then clock each data bit into their serial shifter on  
the falling edge of each SSIClk. The received data is transferred from the serial shifter to the receive  
FIFO on the first rising edge of SSIClk after the LSB has been latched.  
Figure 12-3 on page 257 shows the Texas Instruments synchronous serial frame format when  
back-to-back frames are transmitted.

12.2.4.2 Freescale SPI Frame Format  
The Freescale SPI interface is a four-wire interface where the SSIFss signal behaves as a slave  
select. The main feature of the Freescale SPI format is that the inactive state and phase of the  
SSIClk signal are programmable through the SPO and SPH bits within the SSISCR0 control register.  
SPO Clock Polarity Bit  
When the SPO clock polarity control bit is Low, it produces a steady state Low value on the SSIClk  
pin. If the SPO bit is High, a steady state High value is placed on the SSIClk pin when data is not  
being transferred.  
SPH Phase Control Bit  
The SPH phase control bit selects the clock edge that captures data and allows it to change state.  
It has the most impact on the first bit transmitted by either allowing or not allowing a clock transition  
before the first data capture edge. When the SPH phase control bit is Low, data is captured on the  
first clock edge transition. If the SPH bit is High, data is captured on the second clock edge transition.

In this configuration, during idle periods:

SSIFss is forced High  
The transmit data line SSITx is arbitrarily forced Low  
When the SSI is configured as a master, it enables the SSIClk pad  
When the SSI is configured as a slave, it disables the SSIClk pad  
If the SSI is enabled and there is valid data within the transmit FIFO, the start of transmission is  
signified by the SSIFss master signal being driven Low. This causes slave data to be enabled onto  
the SSIRx input line of the master. The master SSITx output pad is enabled.  
One half SSIClk period later, valid master data is transferred to the SSITx pin. Now that both the  
master and slave data have been set, the SSIClk master clock pin goes High after one further half  
SSIClk period.  
The data is now captured on the rising and propagated on the falling edges of the SSIClk signal.  
In the case of a single word transmission, after all bits of the data word have been transferred, the  
SSIFss line is returned to its idle High state one SSIClk period after the last bit has been captured.  
However, in the case of continuous back-to-back transmissions, the SSIFss signal must be pulsed  
High between each data word transfer. This is because the slave select pin freezes the data in its  
258

serial peripheral register and does not allow it to be altered if the SPH bit is logic zero. Therefore,  
the master device must raise the SSIFss pin of the slave device between each data transfer to  
enable the serial peripheral data write. On completion of the continuous transfer, the SSIFss pin  
is returned to its idle state one SSIClk period after the last bit has been captured.

The transfer signal sequence for Freescale SPI format with SPO=0 and SPH=1 is shown in Figure

If the SSI is enabled and there is valid data within the transmit FIFO, the start of transmission is  
signified by the SSIFss master signal being driven Low. The master SSITx output is enabled. After  
a further one half SSIClk period, both master and slave valid data is enabled onto their respective  
transmission lines. At the same time, the SSIClk is enabled with a rising edge transition.  
Data is then captured on the falling edges and propagated on the rising edges of the SSIClk signal.  
In the case of a single word transfer, after all bits have been transferred, the SSIFss line is returned  
to its idle High state one SSIClk period after the last bit has been captured.  
For continuous back-to-back transfers, the SSIFss pin is held Low between successive data words  
and termination is the same as that of the single word transfer.

transferred onto the SSIRx line of the master. The master SSITx output pad is enabled.  
One half period later, valid master data is transferred to the SSITx line. Now that both the master  
and slave data have been set, the SSIClk master clock pin becomes Low after one further half

After all bits have been transferred, in the case of a single word transmission, the SSIFss line is  
returned to its idle high state one SSIClk period after the last bit has been captured.  
For continuous back-to-back transmissions, the SSIFss pin remains in its active Low state, until  
the final bit of the last word has been captured, and then returns to its idle state as described above.  
For continuous back-to-back transfers, the SSIFss pin is held Low between successive data words

output data  
MICROWIRE format is very similar to SPI format, except that transmission is half-duplex instead of  
full-duplex, using a master-slave message passing technique. Each serial transmission begins with  
an 8-bit control word that is transmitted from the SSI to the off-chip slave device. During this  
transmission, no incoming data is received by the SSI. After the message has been sent, the off-chip  
slave decodes it and, after waiting one serial clock after the last bit of the 8-bit control message has  
been sent, responds with the required data. The returned data is 4 to 16 bits in length, making the  
total frame length anywhere from 13 to 25 bits.  
In this configuration, during idle periods:  
SSIClk is forced Low  
SSIFss is forced High  
The transmit data line SSITx is arbitrarily forced Low  
A transmission is triggered by writing a control byte to the transmit FIFO. The falling edge of SSIFss  
causes the value contained in the bottom entry of the transmit FIFO to be transferred to the serial  
shift register of the transmit logic, and the MSB of the 8-bit control frame to be shifted out onto the  
SSITx pin. SSIFss remains Low for the duration of the frame transmission. The SSIRx pin remains  
tristated during this transmission.  
The off-chip serial slave device latches each control bit into its serial shifter on the rising edge of  
each SSIClk. After the last bit is latched by the slave device, the control byte is decoded during a  
one clock wait-state, and the slave responds by transmitting data back to the SSI. Each bit is driven  
onto the SSIRx line on the falling edge of SSIClk. The SSI in turn latches each bit on the rising  
edge of SSIClk. At the end of the frame, for single transfers, the SSIFss signal is pulled High one  
clock period after the last bit has been latched in the receive serial shifter, which causes the data  
to be transferred to the receive FIFO.  
Note: The off-chip slave device can tristate the receive line either on the falling edge of SSIClk  
after the LSB has been latched by the receive shifter, or when the SSIFss pin goes High.  
For continuous transfers, data transmission begins and ends in the same manner as a single transfer.  
However, the SSIFss line is continuously asserted (held Low) and transmission of data occurs  
back-to-back. The control byte of the next frame follows directly after the LSB of the received data  
from the current frame. Each of the received values is transferred from the receive shifter on the  
falling edge of SSIClk, after the LSB of the frame has been latched into the SSI.

In the MICROWIRE mode, the SSI slave samples the first bit of receive data on the rising edge of  
SSIClk after SSIFss has gone Low. Masters that drive a free-running SSIClk must ensure that  
the SSIFss signal has sufficient setup and hold margins with respect to the rising edge of SSIClk.  
Figure 12-12 on page 263 illustrates these setup and hold time requirements. With respect to the  
SSIClk rising edge on which the first bit of receive data is to be sampled by the SSI slave, SSIFss  
must have a setup of at least two times the period of SSIClk on which the SSI operates. With  
respect to the SSIClk rising edge previous to this edge, SSIFss must have a hold of at least one  
SSIClk period.

Initialization and Configuration  
To use the SSI, its peripheral clock must be enabled by setting the SSI bit in the RCGC1 register.  
For each of the frame formats, the SSI is configured using the following steps:  
1. Ensure that the SSE bit in the SSICR1 register is disabled before making any configuration  
changes.  
2. Select whether the SSI is a master or slave:  
a. For master operations, set the SSICR1 register to 0x0000.0000.  
b. For slave mode (output enabled), set the SSICR1 register to 0x0000.0004.  
c. For slave mode (output disabled), set the SSICR1 register to 0x0000.000C.  
3. Configure the clock prescale divisor by writing the SSICPSR register.

4. Write the SSICR0 register with the following configuration:  
Serial clock rate (SCR)  
Desired clock phase/polarity, if using Freescale SPI mode (SPH and SPO)  
The protocol mode: Freescale SPI, TI SSF, MICROWIRE (FRF)  
The data size (DSS)  
5. Enable the SSI by setting the SSE bit in the SSICR1 register.  
As an example, assume the SSI must be configured to operate with the following parameters:  
Master operation  
Freescale SPI mode (SPO=1, SPH=1)  
1 Mbps bit rate  
8 data bits  
Assuming the system clock is 20 MHz, the bit rate calculation would be:  
FSSIClk = FSysClk / (CPSDVSR * (1 + SCR))  
1x106 = 20x106 / (CPSDVSR * (1 + SCR))  
In this case, if CPSDVSR=2, SCR must be 9.  
The configuration sequence would be as follows:  
1. Ensure that the SSE bit in the SSICR1 register is disabled.  
2. Write the SSICR1 register with a value of 0x0000.0000.  
3. Write the SSICPSR register with a value of 0x0000.0002.  
4. Write the SSICR0 register with a value of 0x0000.09C7.  
5. The SSI is then enabled by setting the SSE bit in the SSICR1 register to 1.

SCR  
R/W  
0x0000  
SSI Serial Clock Rate  
The value SCR is used to generate the transmit and receive bit rate of  
the SSI. The bit rate is:  
BR=FSSIClk/(CPSDVSR * (1 + SCR))  
where CPSDVSR is an even value from 2-254 programmed in the  
SSICPSR register, and SCR is a value from 0-255.

SPH  
R/W  
0
SSI Serial Clock Phase  
This bit is only applicable to the Freescale SPI Format.  
The SPH control bit selects the clock edge that captures data and allows  
it to change state. It has the most impact on the first bit transmitted by  
either allowing or not allowing a clock transition before the first data  
capture edge.  
When the SPH bit is 0, data is captured on the first clock edge transition.  
If SPH is 1, data is captured on the second clock edge transition.

SPO  
R/W  
0
SSI Serial Clock Polarity  
This bit is only applicable to the Freescale SPI Format.  
When the SPO bit is 0, it produces a steady state Low value on the  
SSIClk pin. If SPO is 1, a steady state High value is placed on the  
SSIClk pin when data is not being transferred.

SSI Slave Mode Output Disable  
This bit is relevant only in the Slave mode (MS=1). In multiple-slave  
systems, it is possible for the SSI master to broadcast a message to all

the serial output line. In such systems, the TXD lines from multiple slaves  
could be tied together. To operate in such a system, the SOD bit can be  
configured so that the SSI slave does not drive the SSITx pin.

Register 3: SSI Data (SSIDR), offset 0x008  
SSIDR is the data register and is 16-bits wide. When SSIDR is read, the entry in the receive FIFO  
(pointed to by the current FIFO read pointer) is accessed. As data values are removed by the SSI  
receive logic from the incoming data frame, they are placed into the entry in the receive FIFO (pointed  
to by the current FIFO write pointer).  
When SSIDR is written to, the entry in the transmit FIFO (pointed to by the write pointer) is written  
to. Data values are removed from the transmit FIFO one value at a time by the transmit logic. It is  
loaded into the transmit serial shifter, then serially shifted out onto the SSITx pin at the programmed  
bit rate.  
When a data size of less than 16 bits is selected, the user must right-justify data written to the  
transmit FIFO. The transmit logic ignores the unused bits. Received data less than 16 bits is  
automatically right-justified in the receive buffer.  
When the SSI is programmed for MICROWIRE frame format, the default size for transmit data is  
eight bits (the most significant byte is ignored). The receive data size is controlled by the programmer.  
The transmit FIFO and the receive FIFO are not cleared even when the SSE bit in the SSICR1  
register is set to zero. This allows the software to fill the transmit FIFO before enabling the SSI.

Register 5: SSI Clock Prescale (SSICPSR), offset 0x010  
SSICPSR is the clock prescale register and specifies the division factor by which the system clock  
must be internally divided before further use.  
The value programmed into this register must be an even number between 2 and 254. The  
least-significant bit of the programmed number is hard-coded to zero. If an odd number is written  
to this register, data read back from this register has the least-significant bit as zero.

Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) Interface  
The Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) bus provides bi-directional data transfer through a two-wire design  
(a serial data line SDA and a serial clock line SCL), and interfaces to external I2C devices such as  
serial memory (RAMs and ROMs), networking devices, LCDs, tone generators, and so on. The I2C  
bus may also be used for system testing and diagnostic purposes in product development and  
manufacture. The LM3S300 microcontroller includes one I2C module, providing the ability to interact  
(both send and receive) with other I2C devices on the bus.  
Devices on the I2C bus can be designated as either a master or a slave. The Stellaris® I2C module  
supports both sending and receiving data as either a master or a slave, and also supports the  
simultaneous operation as both a master and a slave. There are a total of four I2C modes: Master  
Transmit, Master Receive, Slave Transmit, and Slave Receive. The Stellaris® I2C module can  
operate at two speeds: Standard (100 Kbps) and Fast (400 Kbps).  
Both the I2C master and slave can generate interrupts; the I2C master generates interrupts when  
a transmit or receive operation completes (or aborts due to an error) and the I2C slave generates  
interrupts when data has been sent or requested by a master.

Functional Description  
I2C module is comprised of both master and slave functions which are implemented as separate  
peripherals. For proper operation, the SDA and SCL pins must be connected to bi-directional  
open-drain pads. A typical I2C bus configuration is shown in Figure 13-2 on page 292.  
See “I2C” on page 351 for I2C timing diagrams.

13.2.1  
I2C Bus Functional Overview  
The I2C bus uses only two signals: SDA and SCL, named I2CSDA and I2CSCL on Stellaris®  
microcontrollers. SDA is the bi-directional serial data line and SCL is the bi-directional serial clock  
line. The bus is considered idle when both lines are high.  
Every transaction on the I2C bus is nine bits long, consisting of eight data bits and a single  
acknowledge bit. The number of bytes per transfer (defined as the time between a valid START  
and STOP condition, described in “START and STOP Conditions” on page 292) is unrestricted, but  
each byte has to be followed by an acknowledge bit, and data must be transferred MSB first. When  
a receiver cannot receive another complete byte, it can hold the clock line SCL Low and force the  
transmitter into a wait state. The data transfer continues when the receiver releases the clock SCL.  
13.2.1.1 START and STOP Conditions  
The protocol of the I2C bus defines two states to begin and end a transaction: START and STOP.  
A high-to-low transition on the SDA line while the SCL is high is defined as a START condition, and  
a low-to-high transition on the SDA line while SCL is high is defined as a STOP condition. The bus  
is considered busy after a START condition and free after a STOP condition. See Figure  
13-3 on page 292.

13.2.1.2 Data Format with 7-Bit Address  
Data transfers follow the format shown in Figure 13-4 on page 293. After the START condition, a  
slave address is sent. This address is 7-bits long followed by an eighth bit, which is a data direction  
bit (R/S bit in the I2CMSA register). A zero indicates a transmit operation (send), and a one indicates  
a request for data (receive). A data transfer is always terminated by a STOP condition generated  
by the master, however, a master can initiate communications with another device on the bus by  
generating a repeated START condition and addressing another slave without first generating a  
STOP condition. Various combinations of receive/send formats are then possible within a single  
transfer.

Data  
The first seven bits of the first byte make up the slave address (see Figure 13-5 on page 293). The  
eighth bit determines the direction of the message. A zero in the R/S position of the first byte means  
that the master will write (send) data to the selected slave, and a one in this position means that  
the master will receive data from the slave.

13.2.1.3 Data Validity  
The data on the SDA line must be stable during the high period of the clock, and the data line can  
only change when SCL is low (see Figure 13-6 on page 293).

13.2.1.4 Acknowledge  
All bus transactions have a required acknowledge clock cycle that is generated by the master. During  
the acknowledge cycle, the transmitter (which can be the master or slave) releases the SDA line.  
To acknowledge the transaction, the receiver must pull down SDA during the acknowledge clock  
cycle. The data sent out by the receiver during the acknowledge cycle must comply with the data  
validity requirements described in “Data Validity” on page 293.  
When a slave receiver does not acknowledge the slave address, SDA must be left high by the slave  
so that the master can generate a STOP condition and abort the current transfer. If the master  
device is acting as a receiver during a transfer, it is responsible for acknowledging each transfer  
made by the slave. Since the master controls the number of bytes in the transfer, it signals the end  
of data to the slave transmitter by not generating an acknowledge on the last data byte. The slave  
transmitter must then release SDA to allow the master to generate the STOP or a repeated START  
condition.

13.2.1.5 Arbitration  
A master may start a transfer only if the bus is idle. It's possible for two or more masters to generate  
a START condition within minimum hold time of the START condition. In these situations, an  
arbitration scheme takes place on the SDA line, while SCL is high. During arbitration, the first of the  
competing master devices to place a '1' (high) on SDA while another master transmits a '0' (low)  
will switch off its data output stage and retire until the bus is idle again.  
Arbitration can take place over several bits. Its first stage is a comparison of address bits, and if  
both masters are trying to address the same device, arbitration continues on to the comparison of  
data bits.  
13.2.2  
Available Speed Modes  
The I2C clock rate is determined by the parameters: CLK_PRD, TIMER_PRD, SCL_LP, and SCL_HP.  
where:  
CLK_PRD is the system clock period  
SCL_LP is the low phase of SCL (fixed at 6)  
SCL_HP is the high phase of SCL (fixed at 4)  
TIMER_PRD is the programmed value in the I2C Master Timer Period (I2CMTPR) register (see  
page 311).  
The I2C clock period is calculated as follows:  
SCL_PERIOD = 2*(1 + TIMER_PRD)*(SCL_LP + SCL_HP)*CLK_PRD  
For example:  
CLK_PRD = 50 ns  
TIMER_PRD = 2  
SCL_LP=6  
SCL_HP=4  
yields a SCL frequency of:  
1/T = 333 Khz  
Table 13-1 on page 294 gives examples of timer period, system clock, and speed mode (Standard  
or Fast).

Interrupts  
The I2C can generate interrupts when the following conditions are observed:  
Master transaction completed  
Master transaction error  
Slave transaction received  
Slave transaction requested  
There is a separate interrupt signal for the I2C master and I2C modules. While both modules can  
generate interrupts for multiple conditions, only a single interrupt signal is sent to the interrupt  
controller.  
13.2.3.1 I2C Master Interrupts  
The I2C master module generates an interrupt when a transaction completes (either transmit or  
receive), or when an error occurs during a transaction. To enable the I2C master interrupt, software  
must write a '1' to the I2C Master Interrupt Mask (I2CMIMR) register. When an interrupt condition  
is met, software must check the ERROR bit in the I2C Master Control/Status (I2CMCS) register to  
verify that an error didn't occur during the last transaction. An error condition is asserted if the last  
transaction wasn't acknowledge by the slave or if the master was forced to give up ownership of  
the bus due to a lost arbitration round with another master. If an error is not detected, the application  
can proceed with the transfer. The interrupt is cleared by writing a '1' to the I2C Master Interrupt  
Clear (I2CMICR) register.  
If the application doesn't require the use of interrupts, the raw interrupt status is always visible via  
the I2C Master Raw Interrupt Status (I2CMRIS) register.  
13.2.3.2 I2C Slave Interrupts  
The slave module generates interrupts as it receives requests from an I2C master. To enable the  
I2C slave interrupt, write a '1' to the I2C Slave Interrupt Mask (I2CSIMR) register. Software  
determines whether the module should write (transmit) or read (receive) data from the I2C Slave  
Data (I2CSDR) register, by checking the RREQ and TREQ bits of the I2C Slave Control/Status  
(I2CSCSR) register. If the slave module is in receive mode and the first byte of a transfer is received,  
the FBR bit is set along with the RREQ bit. The interrupt is cleared by writing a '1' to the I2C Slave  
Interrupt Clear (I2CSICR) register.  
If the application doesn't require the use of interrupts, the raw interrupt status is always visible via  
the I2C Slave Raw Interrupt Status (I2CSRIS) register.  
13.2.4  
13.2.5  
Loopback Operation  
The I2C modules can be placed into an internal loopback mode for diagnostic or debug work. This  
is accomplished by setting the LPBK bit in the I2C Master Configuration (I2CMCR) register. In  
loopback mode, the SDA and SCL signals from the master and slave modules are tied together.

This section details the steps required to perform the various I2C transfer types in both master and  
slave mode.

Initialization and Configuration  
The following example shows how to configure the I2C module to send a single byte as a master.  
This assumes the system clock is 20 MHz.  
1. Enable the I2C clock by writing a value of 0x0000.1000 to the RCGC1 register in the System  
Control module.  
2. Enable the clock to the appropriate GPIO module via the RCGC2 register in the System Control  
module.  
3. In the GPIO module, enable the appropriate pins for their alternate function using the  
GPIOAFSEL register. Also, be sure to enable the same pins for Open Drain operation.  
4. Initialize the I2C Master by writing the I2CMCR register with a value of 0x0000.0020.  
5. Set the desired SCL clock speed of 100 Kbps by writing the I2CMTPR register with the correct  
value. The value written to the I2CMTPR register represents the number of system clock periods  
in one SCL clock period. The TPR value is determined by the following equation:  
302  
October 01, 2007  
Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
TPR = (System Clock / (2 * (SCL_LP + SCL_HP) * SCL_CLK)) - 1;  
TPR = (20MHz / (2 * (6 + 4) * 100000)) - 1;  
TPR = 9  
Write the I2CMTPR register with the value of 0x0000.0009.  
6. Specify the slave address of the master and that the next operation will be a Send by writing  
the I2CMSA register with a value of 0x0000.0076. This sets the slave address to 0x3B.  
7. Place data (byte) to be sent in the data register by writing the I2CMDR register with the desired  
data.  
8. Initiate a single byte send of the data from Master to Slave by writing the I2CMCS register with  
a value of 0x0000.0007 (STOP, START, RUN).  
9. Wait until the transmission completes by polling the I2CMCS register’s BUSBSY bit until it has  
been cleared.

Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) Interface  
Register 2: I2C Master Control/Status (I2CMCS), offset 0x004  
This register accesses four control bits when written, and accesses seven status bits when read.  
The status register consists of seven bits, which when read determine the state of the I2C bus  
controller.  
The control register consists of four bits: the RUN, START, STOP, and ACK bits. The START bit causes  
the generation of the START, or REPEATED START condition.  
The STOP bit determines if the cycle stops at the end of the data cycle, or continues on to a burst.  
To generate a single send cycle, the I2C Master Slave Address (I2CMSA) register is written with  
the desired address, the R/S bit is set to 0, and the Control register is written with ACK=X (0 or 1),  
STOP=1, START=1, and RUN=1 to perform the operation and stop. When the operation is completed  
(or aborted due an error), the interrupt pin becomes active and the data may be read from the  
I2CMDR register. When the I2C module operates in Master receiver mode, the ACK bit must be set  
normally to logic 1. This causes the I2C bus controller to send an acknowledge automatically after  
each byte. This bit must be reset when the I2C bus controller requires no further data to be sent  
from the slave transmitter.

Register 11: I2C Slave Control/Status (I2CSCSR), offset 0x004  
This register accesses one control bit when written, and three status bits when read.  
The read-only Status register consists of three bits: the FBR, RREQ, and TREQ bits. The First  
Byte Received (FBR) bit is set only after the Stellaris® device detects its own slave address  
and receives the first data byte from the I2C master. The Receive Request (RREQ) bit indicates  
that the Stellaris® I2C device has received a data byte from an I2C master. Read one data byte from  
the I2C Slave Data (I2CSDR) register to clear the RREQ bit. The Transmit Request (TREQ) bit  
indicates that the Stellaris® I2C device is addressed as a Slave Transmitter. Write one data byte  
into the I2C Slave Data (I2CSDR) register to clear the TREQ bit.  
The write-only Control register consists of one bit: the DA bit. The DA bit enables and disables the  
Stellaris® I2C slave operation.

Analog Comparators  
An analog comparator is a peripheral that compares two analog voltages, and provides a logical  
output that signals the comparison result.  
The LM3S300 controller provides three independent integrated analog comparators that can be  
configured to drive an output or generate an interrupt.  
Note: Not all comparators have the option to drive an output pin. See the Comparator Operating  
Mode tables for more information.  
A comparator can compare a test voltage against any one of these voltages:  
An individual external reference voltage  
A shared single external reference voltage  
A shared internal reference voltage  
The comparator can provide its output to a device pin, acting as a replacement for an analog  
comparator on the board, or it can be used to signal the application via interrupts to cause it to start  
capturing a sample sequence.

Functional Description  
Important: It is recommended that the Digital-Input enable (the GPIODEN bit in the GPIO module)  
for the analog input pin be disabled to prevent excessive current draw from the I/O  
pads.  
The comparator compares the VIN- and VIN+ inputs to produce an output, VOUT.  
VIN- < VIN+, VOUT = 1  
VIN- > VIN+, VOUT = 0  
As shown in Figure 14-2 on page 328, the input source for VIN- is an external input. In addition to  
an external input, input sources for VIN+ can be the +ve input of comparator 0 or an internal reference.

ACSTAT  
A comparator is configured through two status/control registers (ACCTL and ACSTAT ). The internal  
reference is configured through one control register (ACREFCTL). Interrupt status and control is  
configured through three registers (ACMIS, ACRIS, and ACINTEN). The operating modes of the  
comparators are shown in the Comparator Operating Mode tables.  
Typically, the comparator output is used internally to generate controller interrupts. It may also be  
used to drive an external pin.  
Important: Certain register bit values must be set before using the analog comparators. The proper  
pad configuration for the comparator input and output pins are described in the  
Comparator Operating Mode tables.

Internal Reference Programming  
The structure of the internal reference is shown in Figure 14-3 on page 329. This is controlled by a  
single configuration register (ACREFCTL). Table 14-4 on page 329 shows the programming options  
to develop specific internal reference values, to compare an external voltage against a particular  
voltage generated internally.

Initialization and Configuration  
The following example shows how to configure an analog comparator to read back its output value  
from an internal register.  
1. Enable the analog comparator 0 clock by writing a value of 0x0010.0000 to the RCGC1 register  
in the System Control module.  
2. In the GPIO module, enable the GPIO port/pin associated with C0- as a GPIO input.  
3. Configure the internal voltage reference to 1.65 V by writing the ACREFCTL register with the  
value 0x0000.030C.  
4. Configure comparator 0 to use the internal voltage reference and to not invert the output on the  
C0o pin by writing the ACCTL0 register with the value of 0x0000.040C.  
5. Delay for some time.  
6. Read the comparator output value by reading the ACSTAT0 register’s OVAL value.  
Change the level of the signal input on C0- to see the OVAL value change.

Table 14-5 on page 331 lists the comparator registers. The offset listed is a hexadecimal increment

Signal Tables  
The following tables list the signals available for each pin. Functionality is enabled by software with  
the GPIOAFSEL register.  
Important: All multiplexed pins are GPIOs by default, with the exception of the five JTAG pins (PB7  
and PC[3:0]) which default to the JTAG functionality.  
Table 16-1 on page 340 shows the pin-to-signal-name mapping, including functional characteristics  
of the signals. Table 16-2 on page 342 lists the signals in alphabetical order by signal name.  
Table 16-3 on page 344 groups the signals by functionality, except for GPIOs. Table 16-4 on page  
345 lists the GPIO pins and their alternate functionality.

a. Values depend on the value programmed into the TPR bit in the I2C Master Timer Period (I2CMTPR) register; a TPR  
programmed for the maximum I2CSCL frequency (TPR=0x2) results in a minimum output timing as shown in the table  
above. The I 2C interface is designed to scale the actual data transition time to move it to the middle of the I2CSCL Low  
period. The actual position is affected by the value programmed into the TPR; however, the numbers given in the above  
values are minimum values.  
b. Because I2CSCL and I2CSDA are open-drain-type outputs, which the controller can only actively drive Low, the time  
I2CSCL or I2CSDA takes to reach a high level depends on external signal capacitance and pull-up resistor values.  
c. Specified at a nominal 50 pF load.

Serial Flash Loader  
A
Serial Flash Loader  
A.1  
Serial Flash Loader  
The Stellaris® serial flash loader is a preprogrammed flash-resident utility used to download code  
to the flash memory of a device without the use of a debug interface. The serial flash loader uses  
a simple packet interface to provide synchronous communication with the device. The flash loader  
runs off the crystal and does not enable the PLL, so its speed is determined by the crystal used.  
The two serial interfaces that can be used are the UART0 and SSI0 interfaces. For simplicity, both  
the data format and communication protocol are identical for both serial interfaces.  
A.2  
Interfaces  
Once communication with the flash loader is established via one of the serial interfaces, that interface  
is used until the flash loader is reset or new code takes over. For example, once you start  
communicating using the SSI port, communications with the flash loader via the UART are disabled  
until the device is reset.  
A.2.1  
UART  
The Universal Asynchronous Receivers/Transmitters (UART) communication uses a fixed serial  
format of 8 bits of data, no parity, and 1 stop bit. The baud rate used for communication is  
automatically detected by the flash loader and can be any valid baud rate supported by the host  
and the device. The auto detection sequence requires that the baud rate should be no more than  
1/32 the crystal frequency of the board that is running the serial flash loader. This is actually the  
same as the hardware limitation for the maximum baud rate for any UART on a Stellaris® device  
which is calculated as follows:  
Max Baud Rate = System Clock Frequency / 16  
In order to determine the baud rate, the serial flash loader needs to determine the relationship  
between its own crystal frequency and the baud rate. This is enough information for the flash loader  
to configure its UART to the same baud rate as the host. This automatic baud-rate detection allows  
the host to use any valid baud rate that it wants to communicate with the device.  
The method used to perform this automatic synchronization relies on the host sending the flash  
loader two bytes that are both 0x55. This generates a series of pulses to the flash loader that it can  
use to calculate the ratios needed to program the UART to match the host’s baud rate. After the  
host sends the pattern, it attempts to read back one byte of data from the UART. The flash loader  
returns the value of 0xCC to indicate successful detection of the baud rate. If this byte is not received  
after at least twice the time required to transfer the two bytes, the host can resend another pattern  
of 0x55, 0x55, and wait for the 0xCC byte again until the flash loader acknowledges that it has  
received a synchronization pattern correctly. For example, the time to wait for data back from the  
flash loader should be calculated as at least 2*(20(bits/sync)/baud rate (bits/sec)). For a baud rate  
of 115200, this time is 2*(20/115200) or 0.35 ms.  
A.2.2  
SSI  
The Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) port also uses a fixed serial format for communications,  
with the framing defined as Motorola format with SPH set to 1 and SPO set to 1. See “Frame  
Formats” on page 256 in the SSI chapter for more information on formats for this transfer protocol.  
Like the UART, this interface has hardware requirements that limit the maximum speed that the SSI  
clock can run. This allows the SSI clock to be at most 1/12 the crystal frequency of the board running  
360

Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
the flash loader. Since the host device is the master, the SSI on the flash loader device does not  
need to determine the clock as it is provided directly by the host.  
A.3  
Packet Handling  
All communications, with the exception of the UART auto-baud, are done via defined packets that  
are acknowledged (ACK) or not acknowledged (NAK) by the devices. The packets use the same  
format for receiving and sending packets, including the method used to acknowledge successful or  
unsuccessful reception of a packet.  
A.3.1  
Packet Format  
All packets sent and received from the device use the following byte-packed format.  
struct  
{
unsigned char ucSize;  
unsigned char ucCheckSum;  
unsigned char Data[];  
};  
ucSize  
The first byte received holds the total size of the transfer including  
the size and checksum bytes.  
ucChecksum  
Data  
This holds a simple checksum of the bytes in the data buffer only.  
The algorithm is Data[0]+Data[1]+…+ Data[ucSize-3].  
This is the raw data intended for the device, which is formatted in  
some form of command interface. There should be ucSize–2  
bytes of data provided in this buffer to or from the device.  
A.3.2  
Sending Packets  
The actual bytes of the packet can be sent individually or all at once; the only limitation is that  
commands that cause flash memory access should limit the download sizes to prevent losing bytes  
during flash programming. This limitation is discussed further in the section that describes the serial  
flash loader command, COMMAND_SEND_DATA (see “COMMAND_SEND_DATA  
(0x24)” on page 363).  
Once the packet has been formatted correctly by the host, it should be sent out over the UART or  
SSI interface. Then the host should poll the UART or SSI interface for the first non-zero data returned  
from the device. The first non-zero byte will either be an ACK (0xCC) or a NAK (0x33) byte from  
the device indicating the packet was received successfully (ACK) or unsuccessfully (NAK). This  
does not indicate that the actual contents of the command issued in the data portion of the packet  
were valid, just that the packet was received correctly.  
A.3.3  
Receiving Packets  
The flash loader sends a packet of data in the same format that it receives a packet. The flash loader  
may transfer leading zero data before the first actual byte of data is sent out. The first non-zero byte  
is the size of the packet followed by a checksum byte, and finally followed by the data itself. There  
is no break in the data after the first non-zero byte is sent from the flash loader. Once the device  
communicating with the flash loader receives all the bytes, it must either ACK or NAK the packet to  
indicate that the transmission was successful. The appropriate response after sending a NAK to  
the flash loader is to resend the command that failed and request the data again. If needed, the  
host may send leading zeros before sending down the ACK/NAK signal to the flash loader, as the  
October 01, 2007  
361  
Preliminary  
Serial Flash Loader  
flash loader only accepts the first non-zero data as a valid response. This zero padding is needed  
by the SSI interface in order to receive data to or from the flash loader.  
A.4  
Commands  
The next section defines the list of commands that can be sent to the flash loader. The first byte of  
the data should always be one of the defined commands, followed by data or parameters as  
determined by the command that is sent.  
A.4.1  
COMMAND_PING (0X20)  
This command simply accepts the command and sets the global status to success. The format of  
the packet is as follows:  
Byte[0] = 0x03;  
Byte[1] = checksum(Byte[2]);  
Byte[2] = COMMAND_PING;  
The ping command has 3 bytes and the value for COMMAND_PING is 0x20 and the checksum of one  
byte is that same byte, making Byte[1] also 0x20. Since the ping command has no real return status,  
the receipt of an ACK can be interpreted as a successful ping to the flash loader.  
A.4.2  
COMMAND_GET_STATUS (0x23)  
This command returns the status of the last command that was issued. Typically, this command  
should be sent after every command to ensure that the previous command was successful or to  
properly respond to a failure. The command requires one byte in the data of the packet and should  
be followed by reading a packet with one byte of data that contains a status code. The last step is  
to ACK or NAK the received data so the flash loader knows that the data has been read.  
Byte[0] = 0x03  
Byte[1] = checksum(Byte[2])  
Byte[2] = COMMAND_GET_STATUS  
A.4.3  
COMMAND_DOWNLOAD (0x21)  
This command is sent to the flash loader to indicate where to store data and how many bytes will  
be sent by the COMMAND_SEND_DATA commands that follow. The command consists of two 32-bit  
values that are both transferred MSB first. The first 32-bit value is the address to start programming  
data into, while the second is the 32-bit size of the data that will be sent. This command also triggers  
an erase of the full area to be programmed so this command takes longer than other commands.  
This results in a longer time to receive the ACK/NAK back from the board. This command should  
be followed by a COMMAND_GET_STATUS to ensure that the Program Address and Program size  
are valid for the device running the flash loader.  
The format of the packet to send this command is a follows:  
Byte[0] = 11  
Byte[1] = checksum(Bytes[2:10])  
Byte[2] = COMMAND_DOWNLOAD  
Byte[3] = Program Address [31:24]  
Byte[4] = Program Address [23:16]  
Byte[5] = Program Address [15:8]  
Byte[6] = Program Address [7:0]  
Byte[7] = Program Size [31:24]  
362  
October 01, 2007  
Preliminary  
LM3S300 Microcontroller  
Byte[8] = Program Size [23:16]  
Byte[9] = Program Size [15:8]  
Byte[10] = Program Size [7:0]  
A.4.4  
COMMAND_SEND_DATA (0x24)  
This command should only follow a COMMAND_DOWNLOAD command or another  
COMMAND_SEND_DATA command if more data is needed. Consecutive send data commands  
automatically increment address and continue programming from the previous location. The caller  
should limit transfers of data to a maximum 8 bytes of packet data to allow the flash to program  
successfully and not overflow input buffers of the serial interfaces. The command terminates  
programming once the number of bytes indicated by the COMMAND_DOWNLOAD command has been  
received. Each time this function is called it should be followed by a COMMAND_GET_STATUS to  
ensure that the data was successfully programmed into the flash. If the flash loader sends a NAK  
to this command, the flash loader does not increment the current address to allow retransmission  
of the previous data.  
Byte[0] = 11  
Byte[1] = checksum(Bytes[2:10])  
Byte[2] = COMMAND_SEND_DATA  
Byte[3] = Data[0]  
Byte[4] = Data[1]  
Byte[5] = Data[2]  
Byte[6] = Data[3]  
Byte[7] = Data[4]  
Byte[8] = Data[5]  
Byte[9] = Data[6]  
Byte[10] = Data[7]  
A.4.5  
COMMAND_RUN (0x22)  
This command is used to tell the flash loader to execute from the address passed as the parameter  
in this command. This command consists of a single 32-bit value that is interpreted as the address  
to execute. The 32-bit value is transmitted MSB first and the flash loader responds with an ACK  
signal back to the host device before actually executing the code at the given address. This allows  
the host to know that the command was received successfully and the code is now running.  
Byte[0] = 7  
Byte[1] = checksum(Bytes[2:6])  
Byte[2] = COMMAND_RUN  
Byte[3] = Execute Address[31:24]  
Byte[4] = Execute Address[23:16]  
Byte[5] = Execute Address[15:8]  
Byte[6] = Execute Address[7:0]  
A.4.6  
COMMAND_RESET (0x25)  
This command is used to tell the flash loader device to reset. This is useful when downloading a  
new image that overwrote the flash loader and wants to start from a full reset. Unlike the  
COMMAND_RUN command, this allows the initial stack pointer to be read by the hardware and set  
up for the new code. It can also be used to reset the flash loader if a critical error occurs and the  
host device wants to restart communication with the flash loader.

Serial Flash Loader  
Byte[0] = 3  
Byte[1] = checksum(Byte[2])  
Byte[2] = COMMAND_RESET  
The flash loader responds with an ACK signal back to the host device before actually executing the  
software reset to the device running the flash loader. This allows the host to know that the command  
was received successfully and the part will be reset.
