Clock Configuration

The clock for this module is derived from the following peripheral clock for each MCU group:

MCU GroupPeripheral Clock
RA6T2PCLKA
RA8D1PCLKA
RA8E1PCLKA
RA8M1PCLKA
RA8T1PCLKA

The SCI peripheral uses the SCISPICLK/SCICLK or PCLKA for communication and PCLKA for internal operations. Both can be configured via the Clocks tab of the RA Configuration editor or by using the CGC Interface at run-time.

Pin Configuration

This module uses SCIn_MOSI, SCIn_MISO, SCIn_SPCK, and SCIn_SS pins to communicate with on board devices.

Note
At high bit rates, it might be necessary to configure the pins with IOPORT_CFG_DRIVE_HIGH.

Usage Notes

Transfer Complete Event

The transfer complete event is triggered when all of the data has been transfered. In slave mode if the SS pin is de-asserted then no transfer complete event is generated until the SS pin is asserted and the remaining data is transferred.

Performance

At high bit rates, interrupts may not be able to service transfers fast enough. In master mode this means there will be a delay between each data frame. In slave mode this could result in RX Overflow errors.

In order to improve performance at high bit rates, it is recommended that the instance be configured to service transfers using the DTC.

Transmit From RXI Interrupt

After every byte, the SCI SPI peripheral generates a transmit buffer empty interrupt and a receive buffer full interrupt. Whenever possible, the SCI SPI module handles both interrupts in the receive buffer full interrupt. This improves performance when the DTC is not being used.

Slave Select Pin
