Bit 1 – ENABLE Enable

Due to synchronization, there is a delay from writing CTRLA.ENABLE until the peripheral is enabled or disabled. The value written to CTRLA.ENABLE reads back immediately, and the ENABLE bit in the Synchronization Busy register (SYNCBUSY.ENABLE) is set. SYNCBUSY.ENABLE is cleared when the operation is complete. This bit is not enable-protected.

ValueDescription
0The peripheral is disabled.
1The peripheral is enabled.

Bit 0 – SWRST Software Reset

Writing a ‘0’ to this bit has no effect.

Writing a ‘1’ to this bit resets all registers in the FREQM to their initial state, and the FREQM is disabled. Writing a ‘1’ to this bit will always take precedence, meaning that all other writes in the same write operation are discarded.

Due to synchronization, there is a delay from writing CTRLA.SWRST until the Reset is complete. CTRLA.SWRST and SYNCBUSY.SWRST are cleared when the Reset is complete. This bit is not enable-protected.

ValueDescription
0There is no ongoing Reset operation.
1The Reset operation is ongoing.
