6.1.2 Peripherals Not Supported

For devices with the listed peripherals, these peripherals are NOT supported:
  • Brown-out detection (BOD) and low voltage detection (LVD)
  • Capacitive Sensing Module
  • Code protection
  • D/A converter (DAC) and Op Amp (OPA)
  • “Doze” power saving mode
  • Parallel Slave Port (PSP)
  • Programmable Switch-Mode Controller (PSMC)
  • PWM dead time (PWM is supported)
  • Quadrature Encoder Interface (QEI) of the Motion Feedback module
  • Serial I/O (i.e., SSP including I2C and SPI). As a result, the SSPSTAT register has been made readable and writable.
You can use stimulus to emulate many of the signals of SPI and have firmware read data as if it was SPI.
  • USB and CAN
  • User programs read or write into/from ID memory region
  • Virtual ports
