1.9 CCL Manchester Encoder

This example application shows how to use the CCL peripheral library and generate a Manchester-encoded output.

Description

This demonstrates a way to generate a Manchester-encoded output using a SPI port and the CCL. The SPI port is sending out a predefined buffer of data in a circular fashion. Data is sent out LSB first, with CCL_OUT being the Manchester-encoded output. Pins are configured such that a logic analyzer can be attached to see the input (MOSI and SCK) and the output (CCL_OUT) simultaneously.

Project NameDescription
sam_e54_xpro.XSAM E54 Xplained Pro Evaluation Kit

Setting Up SAM E54 Xplained Pro Evaluation Kit

  • Use jumper from PA05 (EXT1 pin 13) to PB01 (EXT2 pin 5) (This routes SCK signal to CCL_IN[2])
  • PA04 (EXT1 pin 14) has MOSI output
  • PB02 (EXT2 pin 10) has CCL output (CCL_OUT)
  • Connect the Debug USB port on the board to the computer using a micro USB cable

Running the Application

  1. Connect a logic analyzer to MOSI pin
  2. Connect a logic analyzer to SCK pin
  3. Connect a logic analyzer to the Manchester-encoded output CCL_OUT pin
  4. Refer to the following table for pin details:

  5. Build and Program the application using its IDE
  6. Observe the output on logic analyzer, it should follow the truth table as shown in the following diagram:
