Peripheral Simulation

For Dallas Semiconductor DS80C411 — CAN Controller

Simulation support for this peripheral or feature is comprised of:

• Dialog boxes which display and allow you to change peripheral configuration.
• VTREGs (Virtual Target Registers) which support I/O with the peripheral.

These simulation capabilities are described below.

CAN0 Communication Dialog

The Controller Area Network (CAN) Controller Communication tab displays the CAN communication activity on the CAN bus. The Message number, States, Message Identifier, Message Direction, Channel, Data Length and Data content are displayed for each message. To clear the message display, double-click anywhere in the message display area.

CAN0 Configuration Dialog

The CAN0 Configuration tab configures the on-chip CAN controller. The CAN controller provides storage for up to 15 message objects which can be a maximum of 8 bytes long.

Data Memory

• CMA (CAN Memory Assignment) is set to use 0x401000-0x4010FF for CAN data. If reset, 0x00EE00-0x00EEFF is used.

Control

• C0C (CAN 0 Control Register) contains the following control bits:
• SWINT (Software Initialization Enable) is set to allow software access to the first 16 bytes of CAN 0 memory. Setting this bit disables CAN 0 activity.
• ERCS (Error Count Select) contains the number of transmit or receive errors that will cause Error Count Exceeded (CECE) to set.
• AUTOB (Autobaud) is set to automatically detect and set the CAN 0 baudrate based on the data received on the CAN bus.
• CRST (CAN 0 Reset) is set to reset all CAN 0 registers to the default state.
• SIESTA (Siesta Mode Enable) is set to put the CAN 0 controller into low power mode. The bit is cleared by software, CAN 0 bus activity or when either CRST or SWINT bits are set.
• PDE (Power Down Enable) is set to put the CAN 0 controller into the lowest power mode. Receiving 11 consecutive data bits or an MCU reset clears this bit.

Status

• C0S (CAN 0 Status Register) contains the following status information:
• TXS (Transmit Status) is set when the last message was sent without errors.
• RXS (Receive Status) is set when a message was received without errors.

Interrupts

• C0IR (CAN 0 Interrupt Register) contains the identifier of a CAN interrupt request. If zero, no CAN interrupts are pending.
• STIE (CAN 0 Interrupt Enable) is set to allow the CAN controller to generate interrupts. If reset, the CAN controller cannot generate interrupts.
