Enhanced Time Processing Unit (eTPU2)

PXR40 Microcontroller Reference Manual, Rev. 1
User has the ability to program the eTPU Cores with User Time Functions, having access to the
Shared Code Memory (SCM).
•
User Mode
User does not access the eTPU Shared Code Memory:
— Use of predefined eTPU Functions
— No need for eTPU Core programming ability
•
Debug Mode
User debugs eTPU code, accessing special Trace/Debug features via Nexus interface:
— hardware breakpoint/watchpoint setting
— access to internal registers
— single-step execution
— forced instruction execution
— software breakpoint insertion and removal.
•
Module Disable Mode
eTPU Engine clocks are stopped through a register write to ETPUECR bit MDIS, saving power.
Input sampling stops. eTPU Engines can be in Module Disable Mode independently. Module
Disable Mode stops only the Engine clock, so that the Shared BIU, and Global Channel registers
can be accessed, and interrupts and DMAs can be cleared and enabled/disabled. An Engine only
enters Module Disable Mode when any currently running thread is finished. Refer to the
eTPU
Reference Manual
for details.
•
Stop Mode
Stop Mode is entered when eTPU answers device stop request assertion with stop acknowledge.
Refer to the SIU_HLT and SIU_HLTACK register descriptions for details on how to place this
module in Stop mode.
These modes are loosely selected: there is no unique register field or signals to choose between them.
Some features of one mode can be used with features of other mode(s). More on this subject can be found
on
Section 29.1.3.1, eTPU Mode Selection,
below.
NOTE
Throughout this document, an engine is said to be “stopped” if it is either in
Module Disable mode or Stop mode.
29.1.3.1
eTPU Mode Selection
User and User Configuration are the normal operating modes, and differ from each other only in access to
SCM. User programmability is only possible with a RAM SCM.
Debug Mode is characterized by the use of the debug interface features. Specifically, Nexus blocks provide
Nexus class 3 debug features. For more information on debug features, refer to the
eTPU Reference
Manual
