1.5 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 so that a logic analyzer can be attached to see the input (MOSI and SCK) and the output (CCL_OUT) simultaneously.

Setting Up PIC32CM PL10 Curiosity Nano Evaluation Kit

  • Use jumper from PA05 (pin 13) to PA09 (pin 21). This routes SCK signal to CCL_IN[4]
  • Use jumper from PA04 (pin 11) to PA10 (pin 22). This routes MOSI signal to CCL_IN[5]
  • PA11 (pin 23) has CCL output (CCL_OUT)
  • Connect the Debug USB port on the board to the computer using a USB Type-C 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 below:
