Bits Name
0 MCC The entry controls the functionality of the other bits in the SIx RAM entry.
0 The entry refers to other serial controllers (FCCs, SCCs, SMC, according to the CSEL field).
1 The entry refers to the MCC.
1 SWTR Switch Tx and Rx. Valid only in the receive route RAM and ignored in the transmit route RAM. SWTR
affects the operation of both L1RXD and L1TXD. SWTR is set only in special situations where the
user prefers to receive data from a transmit pin and transmit data on a receive pin. For instance,
where devices A and B are connected to the same TDM, each with different time-slots. Normally,
there is no opportunity for stations A and B to communicate with each other directly over the TDM,
because they both receive the same TDM receive data and transmit on the same TDM transmit
signal.
0 Normal operation of L1TXD and L1RXD.
1 Data for this entry is sent on L1RXD and received from L1TXD.
See Figure 15-8. for details.
2–5 SSELx Strobe select. There are four strobes available that can be assigned to the receive RAM and
asserted/negated with the received clock of this TDM channel (L1RCLKx). They can also be
assigned to the transmit RAM and asserted/negated with the transmit clock of this TDM channel
(L1TCLKx). Each bit corresponds to the value the strobe should have during this bit/byte group.
There are four strobe pins for all eight strobe bits in the SIx RAM entries, so the value on a strobe
pin is the logical OR of the Rx and Tx RAM entry strobe bits. Multiple strobes can be asserted
simultaneously. A strobe configured to be asserted in consecutive SIx RAM entries remains
continuously asserted for both entries. A strobe asserted on the last entry in a table is negated after
the last entry is processed.
Note: Each strobe is changed with the corresponding RAM clock and is output only if the
corresponding parallel I/O is configured as a dedicated pin. If a strobe is programmed to be asserted
in more than one set of entries (the SI route entries for more then one TDM channel select the same
strobe), the assertion of the strobe corresponds to the logical OR of all possible sources. This use
of strobes is not useful for most applications. A given strobe should be selected in only one set of
SIx RAM entries.
6 — Reserved, should be cleared.
7–10 CSEL Channel select. In some MCC cases, when SI frame length is shorter than the gap between sync
signals, an under-run condition may appear even though the aggregate serial rate is low. To avoid
these cases, add entries with unsupported bits (CSEL = 0000 in SI entry) in the end of the SI frame.
Thus SI frame length should match the gap between syncs.
0000 The bit/byte group is not supported by the MPC8280. The transmit data pin is three-stated and
the receive data pin is ignored.
0001 The bit/byte group is routed to SCC1.
0010 The bit/byte group is routed to SCC2.
0011 The bit/byte group is routed to SCC3.
0100 The bit/byte group is routed to SCC4.
0101 The bit/byte group is routed to SMC1.
0110 The bit/byte group is routed to SMC2.
0111 The bit/byte group is not supported by the MPC8280. This code is also used in SCIT mode as
the D channel grant. See Section 15.7.2.2, "SCIT Programming."
1000 Reserved.
1001 The bit/byte group is routed to FCC1.
1010 The bit/byte group is routed to FCC2.
1011 The bit/byte group is routed to FCC3.
11xx Reserved.
11–13 CNT Count. Indicates the number of bits/bytes (according to the BYT bit) that the routing and strobe select
of this entry controls. 000 = 1 bit/byte; 111= 8 bits/bytes.
