Bit 30 – LOWTOUTEN SCL Low Time-Out
This bit enables the SCL low time-out. If SCL is held low for 25ms-35ms, the client will release its clock hold, if enabled, and reset the internal state machine. Any interrupt flags set at the time of time-out will remain set.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | Time-out disabled. |
1 | Time-out enabled. |
Bit 27 – SCLSM SCL Clock Stretch Mode
This bit controls when SCL will be stretched for software interaction.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | SCL stretch according to Figure 32-10 |
1 | SCL stretch only after ACK bit according to Figure 32-11 |
Bits 25:24 – SPEED[1:0] Transfer Speed
These bits define bus speed.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0x0 | Standard-mode (Sm) up to 100 kHz and Fast-mode (Fm) up to 400 kHz |
0x1 | Fast-mode Plus (Fm+) up to 1 MHz |
0x2 | High-speed mode (Hs-mode) up to 3.4 MHz |
0x3 | Reserved |
Bit 23 – SEXTTOEN Client SCL Low Extend Time-Out
This bit enables the client SCL low extend time-out. If SCL is cumulatively held low for greater than 25ms from the initial START to a STOP, the client will release its clock hold if enabled and reset the internal state machine. Any interrupt flags set at the time of time-out will remain set. If the address was recognized, PREC will be set when a STOP is received.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | Time-out disabled |
1 | Time-out enabled |
Bits 21:20 – SDAHOLD[1:0] SDA Hold Time
These bits define the SDA hold time with respect to the negative edge of SCL.
Value | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
0x0 | DIS | Disabled |
0x1 | 75NS | 50-100ns hold time |
0x2 | 450NS | 300-600ns hold time |
0x3 | 600NS | 400-800ns hold time |
Bit 16 – PINOUT Pin Usage
This bit sets the pin usage to either two- or four-wire operation:
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | 4-wire operation disabled |
1 | 4-wire operation enabled |
Bit 7 – RUNSTDBY Run in Standby
This bit defines the functionality in standby sleep mode.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | Disabled – All reception is dropped. |
1 | Wake on address match, if enabled. |
Bits 4:2 – MODE[2:0] Operating Mode
These bits must be written to 0x04 to select the I2C client serial communication interface of the SERCOM.
Bit 1 – ENABLE Enable
- This bit is write-synchronized: SYNCBUSY.ENABLE must be checked to ensure the CTRLA.ENABLE synchronization is complete.
- This bit is not enable-protected.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The peripheral is disabled or being disabled. |
1 | The peripheral is enabled. |
Bit 0 – SWRST Software Reset
Writing '0' to this bit has no effect.
Writing '1' to this bit resets all registers in the SERCOM, except DBGCTRL, to their initial state, and the SERCOM will be disabled.
Writing '1' to CTRLA.SWRST will always take precedence, meaning that all other writes in the same write-operation will be discarded. Any register write access during the ongoing reset will result in an APB error. Reading any register will return the reset value of the register.
- This bit is write-synchronized: SYNCBUSY.SWRST must be checked to ensure the CTRLA.SWRST synchronization is complete.
- This bit is not enable-protected.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | There is no reset operation ongoing. |
1 | The reset operation is ongoing. |
