1.4 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.

Setting Up PIC32CX WBZ351 Curiosity Board
- RA8 (pin 18 of Xpro Header) has SCK output
- Use jumper from RA8 (pin 18 of Xpro Header) To RB5 (pin 7 of Xpro Header) (This routes SCK signal To CCLIN4)
- RA7 (pin 16 of Xpro Header) has MOSI output
- RB0 (pin 3 of Xpro Header) has CCL output (CCL_OUT1)
- Connect the Debug USB port on the board to the computer using a micro USB cable
Running the Application
- Connect a logic analyzer to MOSI pin
- Connect a logic analyzer to SCK pin
- Connect a logic analyzer to the Manchester-encoded output CCL_OUT pin
- Refer to the following table for pin details:
