43.8.3 Receive Operations

A receive frame is triggered by a start event and can be followed by synchronization data before data transmission.

The start event is configured setting the Receive Clock Mode Register (SSC_RCMR). See Start.

The frame synchronization is configured by setting the Receive Frame Mode Register (SSC_RFMR). See Frame Synchronization.

The receiver uses a shift register clocked by the receive clock signal and the start mode selected in the SSC_RCMR. The data is transferred from the shift register depending on the data format selected.

When the receiver shift register is full, the SSC transfers this data in the holding register, the status flag RXRDY is set in the SSC_SR and the data can be read in the receiver holding register. If another transfer occurs before read of the Receive Holding Register (SSC_RHR), the status flag OVERUN is set in the SSC_SR and the receiver shift register is transferred in the SSC_RHR.
