Preliminary
30.6.11 External Clock Synchronization
The application of the external rate and offset correction is triggered when the application writes to the
EOC_AP and ERC_AP fields in the
Protocol Operation Control Register (POCR)
external correction values in the next even-odd cycle pair as shown in
.
NOTE
The values provided in the EOC_AP and ERC_AP fields are the values that
were written from the application most recently. If these value were already
applied, they will not be applied in the current cycle pair again.
If the offset correction applied in the NIT of cycle 2n+1 shall be affect by the external offset correction,
the EOC_AP field must be written to after the start of cycle 2n and before the end of the static segment of
cycle 2n+1. If this field is written to after the end of the static segment of cycle 2n+1, it is not guaranteed
that the external correction value is applied in cycle 2n+1. If the value is not applied in cycle 2n+1, then
the value will be applied in the cycle 2n+3. Refer to
for timing details.
Figure 30-135. External Offset Correction Write and Application Timing
If the rate correction for the cycle pair [2n+2, 2n+3] shall be affect by the external offset correction, the
ERC_AP field must be written to after the start of cycle 2n and before the end of the static segment start
of cycle 2n+1. If this field is written to after the end of the static segment of cycle 2n+1, it is not guaranteed
that the external correction value is applied in cycle pair [2n+2, 2n+3]. If the value is not applied for cycle
pair [2n+2, 2n+3], then the value will be applied for cycle pair [2n+4, 2n+5]. Refer to
details.

30.6.12 Sync Frame ID and Sync Frame Deviation Tables
The FlexRay protocol requires the provision of a snapshot of the Synchronization Frame ID tables for the
even and odd communication cycle for both channels. The FlexRay block provides the means to write a
copy of these internal tables into the FRM and ensures application access to consistent tables by means of
table locking. Once the application has locked the table successfully, the FlexRay block will not overwrite
these tables and the application can read a consistent snapshot.
