Using Eight Partitions; Reassigning Channel Blocks Throughout A Mcbsp Data Transfer; Receive Channel Assignment And Control With Eight Receive Partitions - Texas Instruments Concerto F28M36 Series Technical Reference Manual

Multichannel Selection Modes
Several features of the McBSP help you time the reassignment:
• The block of channels currently involved in reception/transmission (the current block) is reflected in the
RCBLK/XCBLK bits. Your program can poll these bits to determine which partition is active. When a
partition is not active, it is safe to change its block assignment and channel configuration.
• At the end of every block (at the boundary of two partitions), an interrupt can be sent to the CPU. In
response to the interrupt, the CPU can then check the RCBLK/XCBLK bits and update the inactive
partition. See Section
Figure 15-33 shows an example of reassigning channels throughout a data transfer. In response to a
frame-synchronization pulse, the McBSP alternates between partitions A and B. Whenever partition B is
active, the CPU changes the block assignment for partition A. Whenever partition A is active, the CPU
changes the block assignment for partition B.

15.6.5 Using Eight Partitions

For multichannel selection operation in the receiver and/or the transmitter, you can use eight partitions or
two partitions (described in
XMCME = 1 for transmission), McBSP channels are activated in the following order: A, B, C, D, E, F, G,
H. In response to a frame-synchronization pulse, the receiver or transmitter begins with the channels in
partition A and then continues with the other partitions in order until the complete frame has been
transferred. When the next frame-synchronization pulse occurs, the next frame is transferred, beginning
with the channels in partition A.
In the 8-partition mode, the (R/X)PABLK and (R/X)PBBLK bits are ignored and the 16-channel blocks are
assigned to the partitions as shown in
changed. The tables also show the registers used to control the channels in the partitions.
