The errata concerns the DBG-CPU interface in DBG mode whilst configured

for tagging. If an interrupt occurs at the moment that a tag is attached

to an opcode being loaded into the instruction queue, the flag will get

set, but the part may not enter active BDM mode. 



Using the DBG configuration BDM=DBGBRK=1, BEGIN=0, an event causing a

flag to be set should cause a break to BDM. The flag gets set, but the

part does not enter active BDM mode. The CPU executes the interrupt

service routine, instead, and returns to the correct position in the


program flow, but the breakpoint to BDM is missed.



The problem does not occur if the DBG module is configured for operation

in BKP mode (BKABEN=1). This is because, even if the flag bit is set,

the BKABEN bit is not cleared. On returning from the interrupt service

routine, the tag is re-applied when the PC is fetched after the

interrupt service routine, and the part enters BDM after the interrupt

service routine. In BKP mode with TRGSEL=0, no flags are set when a

taghit occurs. 



In BKP mode with TRGSEL=1, the flag is also set erroneously on entering

the interrupt service routine. However, it is unlikely that a user would

be affected by the flag being set early (unless the service routine were

exceptionally long), due to the length of time needed to read out the

DBGSR (flag bits) over the BKGD pin; typically, during this time, the

part would enter active BDM when the tag is re-applied. 

None.

When the MCU returns from STOP mode, the internal VDD level can dip

below the LVR level leading to a Power On Reset (POR) event.

 

1) Do not use STOP mode.



 



 

The flash program temperature range specification has been reduced. The

specification now stipulates that flash program operations must take


place between temperatures of -20C and 125C ambient.



In addition, the flash program times have been increased as follows:



                                                   Programming Time 

                                                    Min.      Max.

Single Word Program                      (Tswpgm)    66.0us    99.2us  

Flash Row Program - Consecutive Word     (Tbwpgm)    40.4us    57.8us

Flash Row Program - 64 words             (Tbrpgm)  2608.7us  3742.7us



Actual programming time will vary between the above bounds depending on

flash clock and bus clock frequencies.



Important Notes: 

1) Program time is internally controlled by the flash state machine. 


   No action needs to be taken by users in connection with this erratum. 

2) Both flash erase and flash read temperature specifications and 

   operation times are unaffected by this erratum.

3) EEPROM is unaffected by this erratum. 

 

None.

The Flash memory test module read-access timing limits the bus 

frequency achievable for production test.



 

Operate the device at a maximum frequency of 18 MHz.



 

Upon leaving BDM active mode, the CPU return address is stored

temporarily for a few cycles in the BDM shift register. If a BDM command

transmission is detected during this time, the return address will be

manipulated in the BDM shift register. This situation is likely to occur

when a CPU BGND instruction is executed in user code during debugging

under the following conditions:



(i) The BDM module is not enabled AND

(ii) BDM commands are sent from the host



If this situation occurs, the CPU will execute BDM firmware and will

check the status of the ENBDM bit in the BDMSTS register. If the BDM is

disabled, the ENBDM bit will be clear, and hence the BDM firmware will

be exited and the shift register manipulation described above will occur. 

Avoid using the BGND instruction when the ENBDM bit in the BDMSTS

register is cleared. 

At oscillator frequencies above 4MHz the Program step of the EEPROM

Sector-Modify command can fail depending on the bus frequency. As a

result, no programming of the EEPROM occurs. There is no impact to the

Erase step of the Sector-Modify command. Since a partial programming of


the word cannot occur, there is not a reliability issue caused by the

Sector-Modify command if the programmed word is verified.

 

   Oscillator             Bus

   Frequency           Frequency

   ----------    ----------------------

     4MHz             No Issue

     8MHz        Fbus <20MHz : No issue

    16MHz        Fbus <16MHz : No issue






 

Use seperate Erase and Program commands in place of the Sector-Modify

command. If the Sector-Modify command is used and fails the program step

as confirmed by a user verification step, a Program command alone can be

used to effectively complete the operation since the erase step does

successfully erase the sector. 

If the ECLK is used as an external bus control signal (ESTR=1) the first

external access is lost after switching from a single chip mode with

enabled ECLK output to an expanded mode. The ECLK is erroneously held in

the high phase thus the first external bus access does not generate a

rising ECLK edge for the external logic to latch the address. The ECLK

stretches low after the lost access resulting in all following external

accesses to be valid. 

Enter expanded mode with ECLK output disabled (NECLK=1). Enable the ECLK

after switching the mode before executing the first external access. 

With the SPI configured as a slave, clearing the SPE bit (to disable 

the SPI) together with clearing the CPHA bit while the SS pin is low 

causes the transmit shift register to be locked for the next 

transmission following the SPI being re-enabled as a slave with SS 

still being low. 



This means new transmit data is not accepted for the first 

transmission after re-enabling the SPI (indicated by SPTEF staying low 

after storing transmit data into SPIDR), but for the next following 

transmission.




 

When disabling the slave SPI, CPHA should not be cleared at the same time. 

Starting a conversion with a write to ATDxCTL5 or on an external 

trigger event, and aborting immediately afterwards with a write to 

ATDxCTL0, ATDCTL1, ATDxCTL2 or ATDxCTL3 can fail to stop the 


conversion process.





 

Only write to ATDxCTL4 to abort an ongoing conversion sequence.



Use the recommended start and abort procedures from the Block Guide.

If the range of Flash addresses to be compressed is 32K or greater, the

data at one of the addresses will be effectively ignored. The address

affected is 32K from the upper address read in the data compress

algorithm, e.g., for an address range of 32K, the first data read in the

algorithm will not affect the final signature provided by the algorithm.

 

Limit range of addresses to be compressed to less than 32K addresses.


Execute multiple data compress commands to compress larger Flash address

ranges. 

The initial eight ID bits will be corrupted if a message is set up for

transmission during the third bit of INTERMISSION and a dominant bit is

sampled leading to an early-SOF*.



The CRC is calculated from the resulting bit stream so that the

receiving nodes will still validate the message.




An early-SOF condition may only occur if the oscillators in the network

operate at a tolerance range which could lead to a cumulated phase error

after 11 bit times larger than phase segment 2. 



In case arbitration is lost during transmission of the corrupt

identifier, a non-corrupted ID will be sent with the next attempt if the

transmit request remains active.



*The CAN protocol condition referred to as 'early-SOF' in this erratum

is detailed in "Bosch CAN Specification Version 2.0" Part A, section 9,

and a Note to section 3.2.5 INTERFRAME SPACING – INTERMISSION in Part B. 

Due to increased oscillator tolerance a transmission start in the third


bit of intermission is possible and allowed. The errata can be avoided

when calculating the maximum oscillator tolerance of the overall CAN

system. The phase error after 11 bit times due to the oscillator

tolerance should be smaller than phase segment 2.



If an early-SOF cannot be avoided the following methods will provide

prevention:



- Assigning the same value to all upper eight ID bits in the network

- Allocating dedicated data length codes (DLC) to every identifier used 

  in the network and checking for correspondence after reception

- Assigning only IDs (x) which do not consist of a combination of other 

  assigned IDs (y,z) and using the acceptance filters to reject 

  erroneous messages, i.e. 


  - for standard frames: IDx[11:0]  != {IDy[11:3], IDz[2:0]}

  - for extended frames: IDx[28:21] != {IDy[28:21],IDz[20:0]} 

When the ATD is started with write to ATDCTL5

and, which is very unusual and not necessary,

within a certain period again started with write

to ATDCTL5. The conversion will not start at all.


This does only happen if the two consecutive writes to ATDCTL5 occur 

within one "ATD clock period". An ATD clock period is defined by a full 

rollover of the ATD clock prescaler. That is for example PRS[4:0] = 2 -

> (2+1)*2 = within 6 bus cycles.

 

Only write once to ATDCTL5 when starting a conversion.



Use the recommended start and abort procedures from the Block Guide.

If the PWM emergency shutdown feature is enabled (PWM7ENA=1) and PWM

channel 7 is disabled (PWME7=0) another lower priority function

available on the related pin can take control over the data direction.

This does not lead to a problem if input mode is maintained. If the

alternative function switches to output mode the shutdown function may

unintentionally be triggered by the output data.

 

When using the PWM emergency shutdown feature the GPIO function on the

pin associated with PWM channel 7 should be selected as an input. 



In the case that this pin is selected as an output or where an

alternative function is enabled which could drive it as an output,


enable PWM channel 7 by setting the PWME7 bit. This prevents an

active shutdown level driven on the (output) pin from resulting in an

emergency shutdown of the enabled PWM channels.

 

When an OC7M bit is set, an erroneous normal output compare event can 

happen on a timer port if the compare action is selected as "Timer 

disconnected from output pin logic ".

 


Corresponding configuration:

*  TIOSx = 1 --> Output compare mode

*  OMx = OLx = 0 --> Output compare logic disconnected from the pin

*  OC7Mx = 1 --> Mask bit set for OC7 event











 

Set OC7Mx = 1 only for channels where the output compare action should 

drive the pin, and OC7Mx = 0 for all other channels where the pin is 

required to be disconnected from the output compare logic. 

The pulse width of an output compare (which resets the free running

counter when TCRE = 1) will measure one more bus clock cycle than 

expected. 



 

The specification has been updated. Please refer to revision 01.09 (07


May 2010) or later.



In description of bitfield TCRE in register TSCR2,a note has been added:

TCRE=1 and TC7!=0, the TCNT cycle period will be TC7 x "prescaler

counter width" + "1 Bus Clock". When TCRE is set and TC7 is not equal to

0, then TCNT will cycle from 0 to TC7. When TCNT reaches TC7 value, it

will last only one bus cycle then reset to 0.











 

In low power modes (stop/p-stop/wait – PSWAI=1) and during PWM PP7

de-assert and when PWM counter reaching 0, the PWM channel outputs

(PP0-PP6) cannot keep the state which is set by PWMLVL bit.  



 

Before entering low power modes, user can disable the related PWM 

channels and set the corresponding general-purpose IO to be the PWM 

LVL value. After a intend period, restart the PWM channels.

 

When the PWM is used in 16-bit (concatenation) channel and the emergency

shutdown feature is being used, after de-asserting PWM channel 7

(note:PWMRSTRT should be set) the PWM channels (PP0-PP6) do not show the

state which is set by PWMLVL bit when the 16-bit counter is non-zero. 

 

If emergency shutdown mode is required:




In 16-bit concatenation mode, user can disable the related PWM 

channels and set the corresponding general-purpose IO to be the PWM 

LVL value. After a intend period, restart the PWM channels.
