The peripheral descriptions are divided into separate sections that include the following information: • A detailed functional description of the peripheral • Register configuration for the peripheral • Electrical specification tables, containing performance data which apply for the operating conditions described in Recommended operating conditions on page 407. 2.1 Document naming and status Nordic uses three distinct names for this document, which are reflecting the maturity and the status of the document and its content. Document name Description Objective Product Specification (OPS) Applies to document versions up to 0.7. This product specification contains target specifications for product development. Preliminary Product Specification (PPS) Applies to document versions 0.7 and up to 1.0. This product specification contains preliminary data. Supplementary data may be published from Nordic Semiconductor ASA later. Product Specification (PS) Applies to document versions 1.0 and higher. This product specification contains final product specifications. Nordic Semiconductor ASA reserves the right to make changes at any time without notice in order to improve design and supply the best possible product. Table 1: Defined document names 2.2 Peripheral naming and abbreviations Every peripheral has a unique capitalized name or an abbreviation of its name, e.g. TIMER, used for identification and reference. This name is used in chapter headings and references, and it will appear in the ARM® Cortex® Microcontroller Software Interface Standard (CMSIS) hardware abstraction layer to identify the peripheral. The peripheral instance name, which is different from the peripheral name, is constructed using the peripheral name followed by a numbered postfix, starting with 0, for example, TIMER0. A postfix is normally only used if a peripheral can be instantiated more than once. The peripheral instance name is also used in the CMSIS to identify the peripheral instance. 4430_161 v1.3 12 About this document 2.3 Register tables Individual registers are described using register tables. These tables are built up of two sections. The first three colored rows describe the position and size of the different fields in the register. The following rows describe the fields in more detail. 2.3.1 Fields and values The Id (Field Id) row specifies the bits that belong to the different fields in the register. If a field has enumerated values, then every value will be identified with a unique value id in the Value Id column. A blank space means that the field is reserved and read as undefined, and it also must be written as 0 to secure forward compatibility. If a register is divided into more than one field, a unique field name is specified for each field in the Field column. The Value Id may be omitted in the single-bit bit fields when values can be substituted with a Boolean type enumerator range, e.g. true/false, disable(d)/enable(d), on/ off, and so on. Values are usually provided as decimal or hexadecimal. Hexadecimal values have a 0x prefix, decimal values have no prefix. The Value column can be populated in the following ways: • Individual enumerated values, for example 1, 3, 9. • Range of values, e.g. [0..4], indicating all values from and including 0 and 4. • Implicit values.

This processor implements several features that enable energy-efficient arithmetic and high-performance signal processing including: • • • • Digital signal processing (DSP) instructions Single-cycle multiply and accumulate (MAC) instructions Hardware divide 8 and 16-bit single instruction multiple data (SIMD) instructions The ARM Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard (CMSIS) hardware abstraction layer for the ARM Cortex processor series is implemented and available for the M4 CPU. Real-time execution is highly deterministic in thread mode, to and from sleep modes, and when handling events at configurable priority levels via the nested vectored interrupt controller (NVIC). Executing code from flash will have a wait state penalty on the nRF52 Series. The section Electrical specification on page 16 shows CPU performance parameters including wait states in different modes, CPU current and efficiency, and processing power and efficiency based on the CoreMark® benchmark. The ARM System Timer (SysTick) is present on the device. The SysTick's clock will only tick when the CPU is running or when the system is in debug interface mode. 4.1.1 Electrical specification 4.1.1.1 CPU performance The CPU clock speed is 64 MHz. Current and efficiency data is taken when in System ON and the CPU is executing the CoreMark® benchmark. It includes power regulator and clock base currents. All other blocks are IDLE.

The same physical RAM is mapped to both the Data RAM region and the Code RAM region. It is up to the application to partition the RAM within these regions so that one does not corrupt the other. 4.2.1 RAM - Random access memory The RAM interface is divided into multiple RAM AHB slaves. Each RAM AHB slave is connected to two 4-kilobyte RAM sections, see Section 0 and Section 1 in Memory layout on page 18. Each of the RAM sections have separate power control for System ON and System OFF mode operation, which is configured via RAM register (see the POWER — Power supply on page 49). 4.2.2 Flash - Non-volatile memory The flash can be read an unlimited number of times by the CPU, but it has restrictions on the number of times it can be written and erased, and also on how it can be written. Writing to flash is managed by the non-volatile memory controller (NVMC), see NVMC — Non-volatile memory controller on page 20. The flash is divided into multiple 4 kB pages that can be accessed by the CPU via both the ICODE and DCODE buses as shown in, Memory layout on page 18. Each page is divided into 8 blocks. 4.2.3 Memory map The complete memory map is shown in Memory map on page 19. As described in Memory on page 17, Code RAM and Data RAM are the same physical RAM. 4430_161 v1.3 18 Core components Cortex M4 system address map 0xFFFFFFFF 0xE0100000 0xE0000000 Private peripheral bus 0x5FFFFFFF AHB peripherals 0x50000000 APB peripherals 0x1FFFFFFF 0x10002000 0x40000000 UICR 0x10001000 FICR 0x10000000 0x00806000 Code RAM 0x00800000 0x00030000 Peripheral 0.5GB SRAM 0.5GB Code 0.5GB 0x3FFFFFFF 0x20006000 Data RAM Flash 0x20000000 0x00000000 Figure 3: Memory map 4.2.4 Instantiation ID Base address Peripheral Instance Description 0 0x40000000 BPROT BPROT Block protect 0 0x40000000 CLOCK CLOCK Clock control 0 0x40000000 POWER POWER Power control 0 0x50000000 GPIO P0 General purpose input and output 1 0x40001000 RADIO RADIO 2.4 GHz radio 2 0x40002000 UART UART0 Universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter 2 0x40002000 UARTE UARTE0 Universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter with EasyDMA 3 0x40003000 TWI TWI0 Two-wire interface master 3 0x40003000 TWIM TWIM0 Two-wire interface master 3 0x40003000 TWIS TWIS0 Two-wire interface slave 4 0x40004000 SPI SPI0 SPI master 4 0x40004000 SPIM SPIM0 SPI master 4 0x40004000 SPIS SPIS0 SPI slave 6 0x40006000 GPIOTE GPIOTE GPIO tasks and events 7 0x40007000 SAADC SAADC Analog-to-digital converter 8 0x40008000 TIMER TIMER0 Timer 0 9 0x40009000 TIMER TIMER1 Timer 1 10 0x4000A000 TIMER TIMER2 Timer 2 11 0x4000B000 RTC RTC0 Real-time counter 0 12 0x4000C000 TEMP TEMP Temperature sensor 13 0x4000D000 RNG RNG Random number generator 14 0x4000E000 ECB ECB AES Electronic Codebook (ECB) mode block encryption 15 0x4000F000 AAR AAR Accelerated address resolver 15 0x4000F000 CCM CCM AES CCM mode encryption 16 0x40010000 WDT WDT Watchdog timer 17 0x40011000 RTC RTC1 Real-time counter 1 4430_161 v1.3 19 Deprecated Deprecated Deprecated Core components ID Base address Peripheral Instance Description 18 0x40012000 QDEC QDEC Quadrature decoder 19 0x40013000 COMP COMP General purpose comparator 20 0x40014000 EGU EGU0 Event generator unit 0 20 0x40014000 SWI SWI0 Software interrupt 0 21 0x40015000 EGU EGU1 Event generator unit 1 21 0x40015000 SWI SWI1 Software interrupt 1 22 0x40016000 SWI SWI2 Software interrupt 2 23 0x40017000 SWI SWI3 Software interrupt 3 24 0x40018000 SWI SWI4 Software interrupt 4 25 0x40019000 SWI SWI5 Software interrupt 5 28 0x4001C000 PWM PWM0 Pulse-width modulation unit 0 29 0x4001D000 PDM PDM Pulse-density modulation (digital microphone interface) 30 0x4001E000 NVMC NVMC Non-volatile memory controller 31 0x4001F000 PPI PPI Programmable peripheral interconnect N/A 0x10000000 FICR FICR Factory information configuration N/A 0x10001000 UICR UICR User information configuration Table 4: Instantiation table 4.3 NVMC — Non-volatile memory controller The non-volatile memory controller (NVMC) is used for writing and erasing of the internal flash memory and the UICR (user information configuration registers). The CONFIG on page 22 is used to enable the NVMC for writing (CONFIG.WEN) and erasing (CONFIG.EEN). The user must make sure that writing and erasing are not enabled at the same time. Having both enabled at the same time may result in unpredictable behavior. The CPU must be halted before initiating a NVMC operation from the debug system. 4.3.1 Writing to flash When writing is enabled, full 32-bit words are written to word-aligned addresses in flash. As illustrated in Memory on page 17, the flash is divided into multiple pages. The same 32-bit word in the flash can only be written nWRITE number of times before a page erase must be performed. The NVMC is only able to write 0 to bits in the flash that are erased (set to 1). It cannot rewrite a bit back to 1. Only full 32-bit words can be written to flash using the NVMC interface. To write less than 32 bits, write the data as a full 32-bit word and set all the bits that should remain unchanged in the word to 1. Note that the restriction on the number of writes (nWRITE) still applies in this case. Only word-aligned writes are allowed. Byte or half-word-aligned writes will result in a hard fault. The time it takes to write a word to flash is specified by tWRITE. The CPU is halted while the NVMC is writing to the flash. 4.3.2 Erasing a page in flash When erase is enabled, the flash memory can be erased page by page using the ERASEPAGE on page 22. After erasing a flash page, all bits in the page are set to 1. The time it takes to erase a page is specified by tERASEPAGE. The CPU is halted if the CPU executes code from the flash while the NVMC is writing to the flash. See Partial erase of a page in flash on page 21 for information on dividing the page erase time into shorter chunks. 4430_161 v1.3 20 Core components 4.3.3 Writing to user information configuration registers (UICR) User information configuration registers (UICR) are written in the same way as flash. After UICR has been written, the new UICR configuration will take effect after a reset. UICR can only be written nWRITE number of times before an erase must be performed using ERASEUICR on page 23 or ERASEALL on page 23. The time it takes to write a word to UICR is specified by tWRITE. The CPU is halted while the NVMC is writing to the UICR. 4.3.4 Erasing user information configuration registers (UICR) When erase is enabled, UICR can be erased using the ERASEUICR on page 23. After erasing UICR all bits in UICR are set to 1. The time it takes to erase UICR is specified by tERASEPAGE. The CPU is halted if the CPU executes code from the flash while the NVMC performs the erase operation. 4.3.5 Erase all When erase is enabled, flash and UICR can be erased completely in one operation by using ERASEALL on page 23. This operation will not erase the factory information configuration registers (FICR). The time it takes to perform an ERASEALL command is specified by tERASEALL. The CPU is halted if the CPU executes code from the flash while the NVMC performs the erase operation. 4.3.6 Partial erase of a page in flash Partial erase is a feature in the NVMC to split a page erase time into shorter chunks, so this can be used to prevent longer CPU stalls in time-critical applications. Partial erase is only applicable to the code area in the flash and does not work with UICR. When erase is enabled, the partial erase of a flash page can be started by writing to ERASEPAGEPARTIAL on page 24. The duration of a partial erase can be configured in ERASEPAGEPARTIALCFG on page 24. A flash page is erased when its erase time reaches tERASEPAGE. Use ERASEPAGEPARTIAL N number of times so that N * ERASEPAGEPARTIALCFG ≥ tERASEPAGE, where N * ERASEPAGEPARTIALCFG gives the cumulative (total) erase time. Every time the cumulative erase time reaches tERASEPAGE, it counts as one erase cycle. After the erase is done, all bits in the page are set to '1'. The CPU is halted if the CPU executes code from the flash while the NVMC performs the partial erase operation. The bits in the page are undefined if the flash page erase is incomplete, i.e. if a partial erase has started but the total erase time is less than tERASEPAGE. 4.3.7 Registers Base address Peripheral Instance Description 0x4001E000 NVMC NVMC Non-volatile memory controller Configuration Table 5: Instances Register Offset Description READY 0x400 Ready flag CONFIG 0x504 Configuration register ERASEPAGE 0x508 Register for erasing a page in code area ERASEPCR1 0x508 Register for erasing a page in code area.

See Debug on page 39 for more information. Disabled 0xFF Disable Enabled 0x00 Enable 4.6 EasyDMA EasyDMA is a module implemented by some peripherals to gain direct access to Data RAM. EasyDMA is an AHB bus master similar to CPU and is connected to the AHB multilayer interconnect for direct access to Data RAM. EasyDMA is not able to access flash. A peripheral can implement multiple EasyDMA instances to provide dedicated channels. For example, for reading and writing of data between the peripheral and RAM. This concept is illustrated in EasyDMA example on page 36. RAM AHB multilayer Peripheral READER RAM RAM AHB WRITER AHB Figure 4: EasyDMA example 4430_161 v1.3 EasyDMA 36 EasyDMA Peripheral core Core components An EasyDMA channel is implemented in the following way, but some variations may occur: READERBUFFER_SIZE 5 WRITERBUFFER_SIZE 6 uint8_t readerBuffer[READERBUFFER_SIZE] __at__ 0x20000000; uint8_t writerBuffer[WRITERBUFFER_SIZE] __at__ 0x20000005; // Configuring the READER channel MYPERIPHERAL->READER.MAXCNT = READERBUFFER_SIZE; MYPERIPHERAL->READER.PTR = &readerBuffer; // Configure the WRITER channel MYPERIPHERAL->WRITER.MAXCNT = WRITEERBUFFER_SIZE; MYPERIPHERAL->WRITER.PTR = &writerBuffer; This example shows a peripheral called MYPERIPHERAL that implements two EasyDMA channels - one for reading called READER, and one for writing called WRITER. When the peripheral is started, it is assumed that the peripheral will: • Read 5 bytes from the readerBuffer located in RAM at address 0x20000000. • Process the data. • Write no more than 6 bytes back to the writerBuffer located in RAM at address 0x20000005. The memory layout of these buffers is illustrated in EasyDMA memory layout on page 37. 0x20000000 readerBuffer[0] readerBuffer[1] readerBuffer[2] readerBuffer[3] 0x20000004 readerBuffer[4] writerBuffer[0] writerBuffer[1] writerBuffer[2] 0x20000008 writerBuffer[3] writerBuffer[4] writerBuffer[5] Figure 5: EasyDMA memory layout The WRITER.MAXCNT register should not be specified larger than the actual size of the buffer (writerBuffer). Otherwise, the channel would overflow the writerBuffer. Once an EasyDMA transfer is completed, the AMOUNT register can be read by the CPU to see how many bytes were transferred. For example, CPU can read MYPERIPHERAL->WRITER.AMOUNT register to see how many bytes WRITER wrote to RAM. Note that the PTR register of a READER or WRITER must point to a valid memory region before use. The reset value of a PTR register is not guaranteed to point to valid memory. See Memory on page 17 for more information about the different memory regions and EasyDMA connectivity. 4.6.1 EasyDMA error handling Some errors may occur during DMA handling. If READER.PTR or WRITER.PTR is not pointing to a valid memory region, an EasyDMA transfer may result in a HardFault or RAM corruption. See Memory on page 17 for more information about the different memory regions. 4430_161 v1.3 37 Core components If several AHB bus masters try to access the same AHB slave at the same time, AHB bus congestion might occur. An EasyDMA channel is an AHB master. Depending on the peripheral, the peripheral may either stall and wait for access to be granted, or lose data. 4.6.2 EasyDMA array list EasyDMA is able to operate in Array List mode. The Array List mode is implemented in channels where the LIST register is available. The array list does not provide a mechanism to explicitly specify where the next item in the list is located. Instead, it assumes that the list is organized as a linear array where items are located one after the other in RAM. The EasyDMA Array List can be implemented by using the data structure ArrayList_type as illustrated in the code example below using a READER EasyDMA channel as an example: #define BUFFER_SIZE 4 typedef struct ArrayList { uint8_t buffer[BUFFER_SIZE]; } ArrayList_type; ArrayList_type ReaderList[3] __at__ 0x20000000; MYPERIPHERAL->READER.MAXCNT = BUFFER_SIZE; MYPERIPHERAL->READER.PTR = &ReaderList; MYPERIPHERAL->READER.LIST = MYPERIPHERAL_READER_LIST_ArrayList; The data structure only includes a buffer with size equal to the size of READER.MAXCNT register. EasyDMA uses the READER.MAXCNT register to determine when the buffer is full. READER.PTR = &ReaderList 0x20000000 : ReaderList[0] buffer[0] buffer[1] buffer[2] buffer[3] 0x20000004 : ReaderList[1] buffer[0] buffer[1] buffer[2] buffer[3] 0x20000008 : ReaderList[2] buffer[0] buffer[1] buffer[2] buffer[3] Figure 6: EasyDMA array list 4.7 AHB multilayer AHB multilayer enables parallel access paths between multiple masters and slaves in a system. Access is resolved using priorities. Each bus master is connected to the slave devices using an interconnection matrix. The bus masters are assigned priorities. Priorities are used to resolve access when two (or more) bus masters request access to the same slave device. The following applies: 4430_161 v1.3 38 Core components • If two (or more) bus masters request access to the same slave device, the master with the highest priority is granted the access first. • Bus masters with lower priority are stalled until the higher priority master has completed its transaction. • If the higher priority master pauses at any point during its transaction, the lower priority master in queue is temporarily granted access to the slave device until the higher priority master resumes its activity. • Bus masters that have the same priority are mutually exclusive, thus cannot be used concurrently. Below is a list of bus masters in the system and their priorities. Bus master name Description CPU SPIM0/SPIS0 Same priority and mutually exclusive RADIO CCM/ECB/AAR Same priority and mutually exclusive SAADC UARTE0 TWIM0/TWIS0 Same priority and mutually exclusive PDM PWM Table 11: AHB bus masters (listed in priority order, highest to lowest) Defined bus masters are the CPU and the peripherals with implemented EasyDMA, and the available slaves are RAM AHB slaves. How the bus masters and slaves are connected using the interconnection matrix is illustrated in Memory on page 17. 4.8 Debug Debug system offers a flexible and powerful mechanism for non-intrusive debugging. DAP SWDCLK External debugger CTRL-AP NVMC SW-DP APPROTECT.PALL SWDIO UICR DAP bus interconnect AHB AHB-AP CxxxPWRUPREQ CxxxPWRUPRACK POWER Power CPU ARM Cortex-M4 APB/AHB Figure 7: Overview The main features of the debug system are: • Two-pin serial wire debug (SWD) interface • Flash patch and breakpoint (FPB) unit supports: 4430_161 v1.3 RAM & flash 39 Peripherals Core components • Two literal comparators • Six instruction comparators 4.8.1 DAP - Debug access port An external debugger can access the device via the DAP. The debug access port (DAP) implements a standard ARM® CoreSight™ serial wire debug port (SW-DP), which implements the serial wire debug protocol (SWD). SWD is a two-pin serial interface, see SWDCLK and SWDIO in Overview on page 39. In addition to the default access port in CPU (AHB-AP), the DAP includes a custom control access port (CTRL-AP). The CTRL-AP is described in more detail in CTRL-AP - Control access port on page 40. Note: • The SWDIO line has an internal pull-up resistor. • The SWDCLK line has an internal pull-down resistor. 4.8.2 CTRL-AP - Control access port The control access port (CTRL-AP) is a custom access port that enables control of the device when other access ports in the DAP are disabled by the access port protection. Access port protection blocks the debugger from read and write access to all CPU registers and memorymapped addresses. See the UICR register APPROTECT on page 36 for more information on enabling access port protection. Control access port has the following features: • Soft reset, see Reset on page 53 for more information • Disabling of access port protection, which is the reason why CTRL-AP allows control of the device even when all other access ports in the DAP are disabled by the access port protection Access port protection is disabled by issuing an ERASEALL command via CTRL-AP. This command will erase the flash, UICR, and RAM. 4.8.2.1 Registers Register Offset Description RESET 0x000 Soft reset triggered through CTRL-AP ERASEALL 0x004 Erase all ERASEALLSTATUS 0x008 Status register for the ERASEALL operation APPROTECTSTATUS 0x00C Status register for access port protection IDR 0x0FC CTRL-AP identification register, IDR Table 12: Register overview 4.8.2.1.1 RESET Address offset: 0x000 Soft reset triggered through CTRL-AP 4430_161 v1.3 40 Core components Bit number 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 ID A Reset 0x00000000 ID Access Field A RW RESET 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Value ID Value Description Soft reset triggered through CTRL-AP.

Typ. Max. 13 0.125 Units kΩ 8 MHz 4.8.3 Debug interface mode Before an external debugger can access either CPU's access port (AHB-AP) or the control access port (CTRL-AP), the debugger must first request the device to power up via CxxxPWRUPREQ in the SWJ-DP. If the device is in System OFF when power is requested via CxxxPWRUPREQ, the system will wake up and the DIF flag in RESETREAS on page 58 will be set. The device is in the debug interface mode as long as the debugger is requesting power via CxxxPWRUPREQ. Once the debugger stops requesting power via CxxxPWRUPREQ, the device is back in normal mode. Some peripherals behave differently in Debug Interface mode compared to normal mode. These differences are described in more detail in the chapters of the peripherals that are affected. When a debug session is over, the external debugger must make sure to put the device back into normal mode since the overall power consumption is higher in debug interface mode than in normal mode. For details on how to use the debug capabilities, read the debug documentation of your IDE. 4.8.4 Real-time debug The nRF52810 supports real-time debugging. Real-time debugging allows interrupts to execute to completion in real time when breakpoints are set in thread mode or lower priority interrupts. This enables developers to set breakpoints and single-step through the code without the risk of real-time event-driven threads running at higher priority failing. For example, this enables the device to continue to service the high-priority interrupts of an external controller or sensor without failure or loss of state synchronization while the developer steps through code in a low-priority thread. 4430_161 v1.3 42 5 Power and clock management 5.1 Power management unit (PMU) Power and clock management in nRF52810 is designed to automatically ensure maximum power efficiency. The core of the power and clock management system is the power management unit (PMU) illustrated in Power management unit on page 43. MCU CPU External power sources Internal voltage regulators PMU Memory External crystals Internal oscillators Peripheral Figure 8: Power management unit The PMU automatically detects which power and clock resources are required by the different components in the system at any given time. It will then start/stop and choose operation modes in supply regulators and clock sources, without user interaction, to achieve the lowest power consumption possible. 5.2 Current consumption As the system is being constantly tuned by the Power management unit (PMU) on page 43, estimating the current consumption of an application can be challenging if the designer is not able to perform measurements directly on the hardware. To facilitate the estimation process, a set of current consumption scenarios are provided to show the typical current drawn from the VDD supply. Each scenario specifies a set of operations and conditions applying to the given scenario. Current consumption scenarios, common conditions on page 44 shows a set of common conditions used in all scenarios, unless otherwise stated in the description of a given scenario. All scenarios are listed in Electrical specification on page 44. 4430_161 v1.3 43 Power and clock management Condition Value VDD 3V Temperature 25°C CPU WFI (wait for interrupt)/WFE (wait for event) sleep Peripherals All idle Clock Not running Regulator LDO RAM Full 24 kB retention Compiler3 GCC v4.9.3 20150529 (arm-none-eabi-gcc).

The DC/DC regulator can be used as an alternative to the LDO regulator and is enabled through the DCDCEN on page 60 register. Using the DC/DC regulator will reduce current consumption compared to when using the LDO regulator, but the DC/DC regulator requires an external LC filter to be connected, as shown in DC/DC regulator setup on page 50.

In this mode, the system’s core functionality is powered down and all ongoing tasks are terminated. The device can be put into System OFF mode using the register SYSTEMOFF on page 58. When in System OFF mode, the device can be woken up through one of the following signals: 1. The DETECT signal, optionally generated by the GPIO peripheral 2. A reset When the system wakes up from System OFF mode, it gets reset. For more details, see Reset behavior on page 54. One or more RAM sections can be retained in System OFF mode, depending on the settings in the RAM[n].POWER registers. RAM[n].POWER are retained registers, see Reset behavior. Note that these registers are usually overwritten by the startup code provided with the nRF application examples. Before entering System OFF mode, the user must make sure that all on-going EasyDMA transactions have been completed. This is usually accomplished by making sure that the EasyDMA enabled peripheral is not active when entering System OFF. 5.3.2.1 Emulated System OFF mode If the device is in debug interface mode, System OFF will be emulated to secure that all required resources needed for debugging are available during System OFF. See Debug on page 39 for more information. Required resources needed for debugging include the following key components: Debug on page 39, CLOCK — Clock control on page 62, POWER — Power supply on page 49, NVMC — Non-volatile memory controller on page 20, CPU, Flash, and RAM. Since the CPU is kept on in an emulated System OFF mode, it is recommended to add an infinite loop directly after entering System OFF, to prevent the CPU from executing code that normally should not be executed. 4430_161 v1.3 50 Power and clock management 5.3.3 System ON mode System ON is the default state after power-on reset. In System ON, all functional blocks such as the CPU or peripherals can be in IDLE or RUN mode, depending on the configuration set by the software and the state of the application executing. Register RESETREAS on page 58 provides information about the source causing the wakeup or reset. The system can switch the appropriate internal power sources on and off, depending on how much power is needed at any given time. The power requirement of a peripheral is directly related to its activity level, and the activity level of a peripheral is usually raised and lowered when specific tasks are triggered or events are generated. 5.3.3.1 Sub power modes In System ON mode, when both the CPU and all the peripherals are in IDLE mode, the system can reside in one of the two sub power modes. The sub power modes are: • Constant Latency • Low-power In Constant Latency mode, the CPU wakeup latency and the PPI task response are constant and kept at a minimum. This is secured by forcing a set of basic resources to be turned on while in sleep. Having a constant and predictable latency is at the cost of having increased power consumption. The Constant Latency mode is selected by triggering the CONSTLAT task. In Low-power mode, the automatic power management system described in System ON mode on page 51 ensures that the most efficient supply option is chosen to save most power. Having the lowest power possible is at the cost of having a varying CPU wakeup latency and PPI task response. The Lowpower mode is selected by triggering the LOWPWR task. When the system enters System ON mode, it is by default in Low-power sub power mode. 5.3.4 Power supply supervisor The power supply supervisor initializes the system at power-on and provides an early warning of impending power failure. In addition, the power supply supervisor puts the system in a reset state if the supply voltage is too low for safe operation (brownout). The power supply supervisor is illustrated in Power supply supervisor on page 52. 4430_161 v1.3 51 Power and clock management VDD C Power on reset R VBOR POFCON Brownout reset 1.7V ........... MUX POFWARN Vpof 2.8V Figure 15: Power supply supervisor 5.3.4.1 Power-fail comparator The power-fail comparator (POF) can provide the CPU with an early warning of impending power failure. It will not reset the system, but give the CPU time to prepare for an orderly power-down. The comparator features a hysteresis of VHYST, as illustrated in Power-fail comparator (BOR = Brownout reset) on page 52. The threshold VPOF is set in register POFCON on page 59. If the POF is enabled and the supply voltage falls below VPOF, the POFWARN event will be generated. This event will also be generated if the supply voltage is already below VPOF at the time the POF is enabled, or if VPOF is reconfigured to a level above the supply voltage. If power-fail warning is enabled and the supply voltage is below VPOF the power-fail comparator will prevent the NVMC from performing write operations to the NVM. See NVMC — Non-volatile memory controller on page 20 for more information about the NVMC. VDD VPOF+VHYST VPOF 1.7V POFWARN POFWARN MCU t BOR Figure 16: Power-fail comparator (BOR = Brownout reset) To save power, the power-fail comparator is not active in System OFF or in System ON when HFCLK is not running. 4430_161 v1.3 52 Power and clock management 5.3.5 RAM power control The RAM power control registers are used for configuring the following: • The RAM sections to be retained during System OFF • The RAM sections to be retained and accessible during System ON In System OFF, retention of a RAM section is configured in the RETENTION field of the corresponding RAM[n] register. In System ON, retention and accessibility for a RAM section is configured in the RETENTION and POWER fields of the corresponding RAM[n] register. The following table summarizes the behavior of these registers. Configuration RAM section status System on/off RAM[n].POWER.POWER RAM[n].POWER.RETENTION Accessible Retained Off x Off No No Off x On No Yes On Off Off No No On Off1 On No Yes On On x Yes Yes Table 14: RAM section configuration. x = don't care. The advantage of not retaining RAM contents is that the overall current consumption is reduced. See chapter Memory on page 17 for more information on RAM sections. 5.3.6 Reset There are multiple sources that may trigger a reset. After a reset has occurred, register RESETREAS can be read to determine which source generated the reset. 5.3.6.1 Power-on reset The power-on reset generator initializes the system at power-on. The system is held in reset state until the supply has reached the minimum operating voltage and the internal voltage regulators have started. A step increase in supply voltage of 300 mV or more, with rise time of 300 ms or less, within the valid supply range, may result in a system reset. 5.3.6.2 Pin reset A pin reset is generated when the physical reset pin on the device is asserted. Pin reset is configured via the PSELRESET[0] and PSELRESET[1] registers. Note: Pin reset is not available on all pins. 5.3.6.3 Wakeup from System OFF mode reset The device is reset when it wakes up from System OFF mode. 1 Not useful setting. RAM section power off gives negligible reduction in current consumption when retention is on. 4430_161 v1.3 53 Power and clock management The debug access port (DAP) is not reset following a wake up from System OFF mode if the device is in Debug Interface mode. See chapter Debug on page 39 for more information. 5.3.6.4 Soft reset A soft reset is generated when the SYSRESETREQ bit of the Application Interrupt and Reset Control Register (AIRCR register) in the ARM® core is set. Refer to ARM documentation for more details. A soft reset can also be generated via the RESET on page 40 register in the CTRL-AP. 5.3.6.5 Watchdog reset A Watchdog reset is generated when the watchdog times out. See chapter WDT — Watchdog timer on page 381 for more information. 5.3.6.6 Brown-out reset The brown-out reset generator puts the system in reset state if the supply voltage drops below the brownout reset (BOR) threshold. Refer to section Power fail comparator on page 62 for more information. 5.3.7 Retained registers A retained register is a register that will retain its value in System OFF mode and through a reset, depending on reset source. See individual peripheral chapters for information of which registers are retained for the various peripherals. 5.3.8 Reset behavior Reset source Reset target CPU Peripherals GPIO Debuga SWJ-DP RAM WDT Retained RESETREAS registers CPU lockup 5 x x x Soft reset x x x Wakeup from System OFF x x Watchdog reset 8 x x Pin reset x Brownout reset x Power on reset x x6 x7 x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x mode reset Note: The RAM is never reset, but depending on reset source, RAM content may be corrupted. a 5 6 7 8 All debug components excluding SWJ-DP. See Debug on page 39 chapter for more information about the different debug components in the system. Reset from CPU lockup is disabled if the device is in debug interface mode. CPU lockup is not possible in System OFF. The Debug components will not be reset if the device is in debug interface mode. RAM is not reset on wakeup from OFF mode, but depending on settings in the RAM register parts, or the whole RAM, may not be retained after the device has entered System OFF mode. Watchdog reset is not available in System OFF. 4430_161 v1.3 54 Power and clock management 5.3.9 Registers Base address Peripheral Instance Description Configuration 0x40000000 POWER POWER Power control For 24 kB RAM variant, only RAM[0].x to RAM[2].x registers are in use.

Clock distribution is automated and grouped independently by module to limit current consumption in unused branches of the clock tree. Listed here are the main features for CLOCK: • • • • • • • 64 MHz on-chip oscillator 64 MHz crystal oscillator, using external 32 MHz crystal 32.768 kHz +/-500 ppm RC oscillator 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator, using external 32.768 kHz crystal 32.768 kHz oscillator synthesized from 64 MHz oscillator Firmware (FW) override control of oscillator activity for low latency start up Automatic oscillator and clock control, and distribution for ultra-low power 4430_161 v1.3 62 Power and clock management HFCLKSTART HFCLKSTOP LFCLKSTART LFCLKSTOP CLOCK HFINT Internal oscillator PCLK1M PCLK16M XC1 PCLK32M HFCLK Clock control HFXO Crystal oscillator 32 MHz HCLK64M XC2 LFRC RC oscillator CAL SYNT XL1 LFXO Crystal oscillator 32.768 kHz LFCLK Clock control PCLK32KI XL2 HFCLKSTARTED LFCLKSTARTED Figure 17: Clock control 5.4.1 HFCLK clock controller The HFCLK clock controller provides the following clocks to the system. • • • • HCLK64M: 64 MHz CPU clock PCLK1M: 1 MHz peripheral clock PCLK16M: 16 MHz peripheral clock PCLK32M: 32 MHz peripheral clock The HFCLK controller supports the following high frequency clock (HFCLK) sources: • 64 MHz internal oscillator (HFINT) • 64 MHz crystal oscillator (HFXO) For illustration, see Clock control on page 63. When the system requests one or more clocks from the HFCLK controller, the HFCLK controller will automatically provide them. If the system does not request any clocks provided by the HFCLK controller, the controller will enter a power saving mode. These clocks are only available when the system is in ON mode. When the system enters ON mode, the internal oscillator (HFINT) clock source will automatically start to be able to provide the required HFCLK clock(s) for the system. The HFINT will be used when HFCLK is requested and HFXO has not been started. The HFXO is started by triggering the HFCLKSTART task and stopped using the HFCLKSTOP task. A HFCLKSTARTED event will be generated when the HFXO has started and its frequency is stable. The HFXO must be running to use the RADIO or the calibration mechanism associated with the 32.768 kHz RC oscillator. 5.4.1.1 64 MHz crystal oscillator (HFXO) The 64 MHz crystal oscillator (HFXO) is controlled by a 32 MHz external crystal 4430_161 v1.3 63 Power and clock management The crystal oscillator is designed for use with an AT-cut quartz crystal in parallel resonant mode. To achieve correct oscillation frequency, the load capacitance must match the specification in the crystal data sheet. Circuit diagram of the 64 MHz crystal oscillator on page 64 shows how the 32 MHz crystal is connected to the 64 MHz crystal oscillator. XC1 XC2 C1 C2 32 MHz crystal Figure 18: Circuit diagram of the 64 MHz crystal oscillator The load capacitance (CL) is the total capacitance seen by the crystal across its terminals and is given by: C1 and C2 are ceramic SMD capacitors connected between each crystal terminal and ground. For more information, see Reference circuitry on page 396. Cpcb1 and Cpcb2 are stray capacitances on the PCB. Cpin is the pin input capacitance on the XC1 and XC2 pins. See table 64 MHz crystal oscillator (HFXO) on page 73. The load capacitors C1 and C2 should have the same value. For reliable operation, the crystal load capacitance, shunt capacitance, equivalent series resistance, and drive level must comply with the specifications in table 64 MHz crystal oscillator (HFXO) on page 73. It is recommended to use a crystal with lower than maximum load capacitance and/or shunt capacitance. A low load capacitance will reduce both start up time and current consumption. 5.4.2 LFCLK clock controller The system supports several low frequency clock sources. As illustrated in Clock control on page 63, the system supports the following low frequency clock sources: • 32.768 kHz RC oscillator (LFRC) • 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator (LFXO) • 32.768 kHz synthesized from HFCLK (LFSYNT) The LFCLK clock is started by first selecting the preferred clock source in register LFCLKSRC on page 72 and then triggering the LFCLKSTART task. If the LFXO is selected as the clock source, the LFCLK will initially start running from the 32.768 kHz LFRC while the LFXO is starting up and automatically switch to using the LFXO once this oscillator is running. The LFCLKSTARTED event will be generated when the LFXO has been started. 4430_161 v1.3 64 Power and clock management The LFCLK clock is stopped by triggering the LFCLKSTOP task. It is not allowed to write to register LFCLKSRC on page 72 when the LFCLK is running. A LFCLKSTOP task will stop the LFCLK oscillator. However, the LFCLKSTOP task can only be triggered after the STATE field in register LFCLKSTAT on page 72 indicates a 'LFCLK running' state. The LFCLK clock controller and all of the LFCLK clock sources are always switched off when in OFF mode. 5.4.2.1 32.768 kHz RC oscillator (LFRC) The default source of the low frequency clock (LFCLK) is the 32.768 kHz RC oscillator (LFRC). The LFRC frequency will be affected by variation in temperature. The LFRC oscillator can be calibrated to improve accuracy by using the HFXO as a reference oscillator during calibration. See Table 32.768 kHz RC oscillator (LFRC) on page 74 for details on the default and calibrated accuracy of the LFRC oscillator. The LFRC oscillator does not require additional external components. 5.4.2.2 Calibrating the 32.768 kHz RC oscillator After the 32.768 kHz RC oscillator is started and running, it can be calibrated by triggering the CAL task. In this case, the HFCLK will be temporarily switched on and used as a reference. A DONE event will be generated when calibration has finished. The calibration mechanism will only work as long as HFCLK is generated from the HFCLK crystal oscillator, it is therefore necessary to explicitly start this crystal oscillator before calibration can be started, see HFCLKSTART task. It is not allowed to stop the LFRC during an ongoing calibration. 5.4.2.3 Calibration timer The calibration timer can be used to time the calibration interval of the 32.768 kHz RC oscillator. The calibration timer is started by triggering the CTSTART task and stopped by triggering the CTSTOP task. The calibration timer will always start counting down from the value specified in CTIV and generate a CTTO timeout event when it reaches 0. The Calibration timer will stop by itself when it reaches 0. CTSTART CTSTOP Calibration timer CTIV CTTO Figure 19: Calibration timer Due to limitations in the calibration timer, only one task related to calibration, that is, CAL, CTSTART and CTSTOP, can be triggered for every period of LFCLK. 5.4.2.4 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator (LFXO) For higher LFCLK accuracy the low frequency crystal oscillator (LFXO) must be used. The following external clock sources are supported: • Low swing clock signal applied to the XL1 pin. The XL2 pin shall then be grounded. • Rail-to-rail clock signal applied to the XL1 pin. The XL2 pin shall then be grounded or left unconnected. The LFCLKSRC on page 72 register controls the clock source, and its allowed swing. The truth table for various situations is as follows: 4430_161 v1.3 65 Power and clock management SRC EXTERNAL BYPASS Comment 0 0 0 Normal operation, RC is source 0 0 1 DO NOT USE 0 1 X DO NOT USE 1 0 0 Normal XTAL operation 1 1 0 Apply external low swing signal to XL1, ground XL2 1 1 1 Apply external full swing signal to XL1, leave XL2 grounded or unconnected 1 0 1 DO NOT USE 2 0 0 Normal operation, synth is source 2 0 1 DO NOT USE 2 1 X DO NOT USE Table 17: LFCLKSRC configuration depending on clock source To achieve correct oscillation frequency, the load capacitance must match the specification in the crystal data sheet.

XL1 XL2 C1 C2 32.768 kHz crystal Figure 20: Circuit diagram of the 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator The load capacitance (CL) is the total capacitance seen by the crystal across its terminals and is given by: C1 and C2 are ceramic SMD capacitors connected between each crystal terminal and ground. Cpcb1 and Cpcb2 are stray capacitances on the PCB. Cpin is the pin input capacitance on the XC1 and XC2 pins (see 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator (LFXO) on page 74). The load capacitors C1 and C2 should have the same value. For more information, see Reference circuitry on page 396. 5.4.2.5 32.768 kHz synthesized from HFCLK (LFSYNT) LFCLK can also be synthesized from the HFCLK clock source. The accuracy of LFCLK will then be the accuracy of the HFCLK. Using the LFSYNT clock avoids the requirement for a 32.768 kHz crystal, but increases average power consumption as the HFCLK will need to be requested in the system. 4430_161 v1.3 66 Power and clock

Typ. 64 fTOL_HFINT Frequency tolerance VIN-) READY DOWN CROSS UP Figure 33: Comparator overview Once enabled (using the ENABLE register), the comparator is started by triggering the START task and stopped by triggering the STOP task. After a start-up time of tCOMP,START, the comparator will generate a READY event to indicate that it is ready for use and that its output is correct. When the COMP module is started, events will be generated every time VIN+ crosses VIN-. Operation modes The comparator can be configured to operate in two main operation modes, differential mode and singleended mode. See the MODE register for more information. In both operation modes, the comparator can operate in different speed and power consumption modes (low-power, normal and high-speed). Highspeed mode will consume more power compared to low-power mode, and low-power mode will result in slower response time compared to high-speed mode. Use the PSEL register to select any of the AIN0-AIN6 pins (or VDD/2) as VIN+ input, irregardless of the operation mode selected for the comparator. The source of VIN- depends on which operation mode is used: • Differential mode: Derived directly from AIN0 to AIN7 • Single-ended mode: Derived from VREF. VREF can be derived from VDD, AIN0-AIN7 or internal 1.2 V, 1.8 V and 2.4 V references. The selected analog pins will be acquired by the comparator once it is enabled. An optional hysteresis on VIN+ and VIN- can be enabled when the module is used in differential mode through the HYST register. In single-ended mode, VUP and VDOWN thresholds can be set to implement a hysteresis using the reference ladder (see Comparator in single-ended mode on page 101). This hysteresis is in the order of magnitude of 30 mV, and shall prevent noise on the signal to create unwanted events. See Hysteresis example where VIN+ starts below VUP on page 102 for illustration of the effect of an active hysteresis on a noisy input signal. An upward crossing will generate an UP event and a downward crossing will generate a DOWN event. The CROSS event will be generated every time there is a crossing, independent of direction. The immediate value of the comparator can be sampled to RESULT register by triggering the SAMPLE task. 4430_161 v1.3 99 Peripherals 6.5.1 Differential mode In differential mode, the reference input VIN- is derived directly from one of the AINx pins. Before enabling the comparator via the ENABLE register, the following registers must be configured for the differential mode: MUX PSEL EXTREFSEL AIN7 AIN6 AIN5 AIN4 AIN3 AIN2 AIN1 AIN0 AIN6 VDD/2 AIN5 AIN4 AIN3 AIN2 AIN1 AIN0 • PSEL • MODE • EXTREFSEL MUX SAMPLE STOP START VIN+ + VIN- Comparator core MODE RESULT Output 0 = BELOW (VIN+ < VIN-) 1 = ABOVE (VIN+ > VIN-) READY DOWN UP CROSS Figure 34: Comparator in differential mode Restriction: Depending on the device, not all the analog inputs may be available for each MUX. See definitions for PSEL and EXTREFSEL for more information about which analog pins are available on a particular device. When HYST register is turned on while in this mode, the output of the comparator (and associated events) will change from ABOVE to BELOW whenever VIN+ becomes lower than VIN- - (VDIFFHYST / 2). It will also change from BELOW to ABOVE whenever VIN+ becomes higher than VIN- + (VDIFFHYST / 2). This behavior is illustrated in Hysteresis enabled in differential mode on page 100. VIN+ VIN- + (VDIFFHYST / 2) VIN- - (VDIFFHYST / 2) t Output ABOVE (VIN+ > (VIN- + VDIFFHYST /2)) BELOW (VIN+ < (VIN- - VDIFFHYST /2)) ABOVE (VIN+ > (VIN- + VDIFFHYST /2)) Figure 35: Hysteresis enabled in differential mode 6.5.2 Single-ended mode In single-ended mode, VIN- is derived from the reference ladder. 4430_161 v1.3 100 BELOW Peripherals Before enabling the comparator via the ENABLE register, the following registers must be configured for the single-ended mode: • • • • • PSEL MODE REFSEL EXTREFSEL TH MUX PSEL TH EXTREFSEL AIN7 AIN6 AIN5 AIN4 AIN2 AIN3 MUX SAMPLE STOP START VIN+ + - VIN- 0 MUX 1 Comparator core MODE REFSEL AIN1 AIN0 AIN6 VDD/2 AIN5 AIN4 AIN3 AIN2 AIN1 AIN0 The reference ladder uses the reference voltage (VREF) to derive two new voltage references, VUP and VDOWN. VUP and VDOWN are configured using THUP and THDOWN respectively in the TH register. VREF can be derived from any of the available reference sources, configured using the EXTREFSEL and REFSEL registers as illustrated in Comparator in single-ended mode on page 101. When AREF is selected in the REFSEL register, the EXTREFSEL register is used to select one of the AIN0-AIN7 analog input pins as reference input. The selected analog pins will be acquired by the comparator once it is enabled. AREF VDOWN HYST RESULT VDD VUP Reference ladder VREF MUX 1V2 1V8 2V4 Output 0 = BELOW (VIN+ < VIN-) 1 = ABOVE (VIN+ > VIN-) READY DOWN UP CROSS Figure 36: Comparator in single-ended mode Restriction: Depending on the device, not all the analog inputs may be available for each MUX. See definitions for PSEL and EXTREFSEL for more information about which analog pins are available on a particular device. When the comparator core detects that VIN+ > VIN-, i.e. ABOVE as per the RESULT register, VIN- will switch to VDOWN. When VIN+ falls below VIN- again, VIN- will be switched back to VUP. By specifying VUP larger than VDOWN, a hysteresis can be generated as illustrated in Hysteresis example where VIN+ starts below VUP on page 102 and Hysteresis example where VIN+ starts above VUP on page 102. Writing to HYST has no effect in single-ended mode, and the content of this register is ignored. 4430_161 v1.3 101 Peripherals VIN+ VUP VDOWN Output ABOVE (VIN+ > VIN-) BELOW VUP VDOWN VUP RESULT

The ECB encryption block supports 128 bit AES encryption (encryption only, not decryption). AES ECB operates with EasyDMA access to system Data RAM for in-place operations on cleartext and ciphertext during encryption. ECB uses the same AES core as the CCM and AAR blocks and is an asynchronous operation which may not complete if the AES core is busy. AES ECB features: • • • • 128 bit AES encryption Supports standard AES ECB block encryption Memory pointer support DMA data transfer AES ECB performs a 128 bit AES block encrypt. At the STARTECB task, data and key is loaded into the algorithm by EasyDMA. When output data has been written back to memory, the ENDECB event is triggered. AES ECB can be stopped by triggering the STOPECB task. 6.6.1 Shared resources The ECB, CCM, and AAR share the same AES module. The ECB will always have lowest priority and if there is a sharing conflict during encryption, the ECB operation will be aborted and an ERRORECB event will be generated. 6.6.2 EasyDMA The ECB implements an EasyDMA mechanism for reading and writing to the Data RAM. This DMA cannot access the program memory or any other parts of the memory area except RAM. If the ECBDATAPTR is not pointing to the Data RAM region, an EasyDMA transfer may result in a HardFault or RAM corruption. See Memory on page 17 for more information about the different memory regions. The EasyDMA will have finished accessing the Data RAM when the ENDECB or ERRORECB is generated. 6.6.3 ECB data structure Input to the block encrypt and output from the block encrypt are stored in the same data structure. ECBDATAPTR should point to this data structure before STARTECB is initiated.

Typ. 6 Max. Units µs 6.7 EGU — Event generator unit The Event generator unit (EGU) provides support for inter-layer signaling. This means support for atomic triggering of both CPU execution and hardware tasks from both firmware (by CPU) and hardware (by PPI). This feature can, for instance, be used for triggering CPU execution at a lower priority execution from a higher priority execution, or to handle a peripheral's ISR execution at a lower priority for some of its events. However, triggering any priority from any priority is possible. Listed here are the main EGU features: • Enables SW triggering of interrupts • Separate interrupt vectors for every EGU instance • Up to 16 separate event flags per interrupt for multiplexing Each instance of The EGU implements a set of tasks which can individually be triggered to generate the corresponding event, i.e., the corresponding event for TASKS_TRIGGER[n] is EVENTS_TRIGGERED[n].

GPIO has the following user-configurable features: • • • • • • • • • Up to 32 GPIO pins per GPIO port Configurable output drive strength Internal pull-up and pull-down resistors Wake-up from high or low level triggers on all pins Trigger interrupt on state changes on any pin All pins can be used by the PPI task/event system One or more GPIO outputs can be controlled through PPI and GPIOTE channels All pins can be individually mapped to interface blocks for layout flexibility GPIO state changes captured on SENSE signal can be stored by LATCH register The GPIO port peripheral implements up to 32 pins, PIN0 through PIN31. Each of these pins can be individually configured in the PIN_CNF[n] registers (n=0..31). The following parameters can be configured through these registers: • • • • • • Direction Drive strength Enabling of pull-up and pull-down resistors Pin sensing Input buffer disconnect Analog input (for selected pins) The PIN_CNF registers are retained registers. See POWER — Power supply on page 49 chapter for more information about retained registers. 4430_161 v1.3 116 Peripherals 6.8.1 Pin configuration Pins can be individually configured, through the SENSE field in the PIN_CNF[n] register, to detect either a high level or a low level on their input. When the correct level is detected on any such configured pin, the sense mechanism will set the DETECT signal high. Each pin has a separate DETECT signal. Default behavior, defined by the DETECTMODE register, is that the DETECT signals from all pins in the GPIO port are combined into one common DETECT signal that is routed throughout the system, which then can be utilized by other peripherals. This mechanism is functional in both System ON mode and System OFF mode. See GPIO port and the GPIO pin details on page 117.

All signals on the left side in the illustration are used by other peripherals in the system and therefore not directly available to the CPU. Make sure that a pin is in a level that cannot trigger the sense mechanism before enabling it. The DETECT signal will go high immediately if the SENSE condition configured in the PIN_CNF registers is met when the sense mechanism is enabled. This will trigger a PORT event if the DETECT signal was low before enabling the sense mechanism. See GPIOTE — GPIO tasks and events on page 124. See the following peripherals for more information about how the DETECT signal is used: • POWER: uses the DETECT signal to exit from System OFF mode. • GPIOTE: uses the DETECT signal to generate the PORT event. When a pin's PINx.DETECT signal goes high, a flag will be set in the LATCH register. For example, when the PIN0.DETECT signal goes high, bit 0 in the LATCH register will be set to '1'. If the CPU performs a clear operation on a bit in the LATCH register when the associated PINx.DETECT signal is high, the bit in the LATCH register will not be cleared. The LATCH register will only be cleared if the CPU explicitly clears it by writing a '1' to the bit that shall be cleared, i.e. the LATCH register will not be affected by a PINx.DETECT signal being set low. The LDETECT signal will be set high when one or more bits in the LATCH register are '1'. The LDETECT signal will be set low when all bits in the LATCH register are successfully cleared to '0'. If one or more bits in the LATCH register are '1' after the CPU has performed a clear operation on the LATCH registers, a rising edge will be generated on the LDETECT signal. This is illustrated in DETECT signal behavior on page 118. Important: The CPU can read the LATCH register at any time to check if a SENSE condition has been met on one or more of the the GPIO pins, even if that condition is no longer met at the time the CPU queries the LATCH register. This mechanism will work even if the LDETECT signal is not used as the DETECT signal. 4430_161 v1.3 PIN0 PIN[0].OUT O 117 PIN31 Peripherals The LDETECT signal is by default not connected to the GPIO port's DETECT signal, but via the DETECTMODE register it is possible to change from default behavior to DETECT signal being derived directly from the LDETECT signal instead. See GPIO port and the GPIO pin details on page 117. DETECT signal behavior on page 118 illustrates the DETECT signal behavior for these two alternatives.

Each GPIOTE channel can be assigned to one pin. A GPIOTE block enables GPIOs to generate events on pin state change which can be used to carry out tasks through the PPI system. A GPIO can also be driven to change state on system events using the PPI system. Low power detection of pin state changes is possible when in System ON or System OFF. Instance Number of GPIOTE channels GPIOTE 8 Table 39: GPIOTE properties Up to three tasks can be used in each GPIOTE channel for performing write operations to a pin. Two tasks are fixed (SET and CLR), and one (OUT) is configurable to perform following operations: • Set • Clear • Toggle An event can be generated in each GPIOTE channel from one of the following input conditions: • Rising edge • Falling edge • Any change 6.9.1 Pin events and tasks The GPIOTE module has a number of tasks and events that can be configured to operate on individual GPIO pins. The tasks (SET[n], CLR[n] and OUT[n]) can be used for writing to individual pins, and the events (IN[n]) can be generated from changes occurring at the inputs of individual pins. The SET task will set the pin selected in CONFIG[n].PSEL to high. The CLR task will set the pin low. The effect of the OUT task on the pin is configurable in CONFIG[n].POLARITY , and can either set the pin high, set it low, or toggle it. 1 Rise and fall times based on simulations 4430_161 v1.3 124 Peripherals The tasks and events are configured using the CONFIG[n] registers. Every set of SET, CLR and OUT[n] tasks and IN[n] events has one CONFIG[n] register associated with it. As long as a SET[n], CLR[n] and OUT[n] task or an IN[n] event is configured to control a pin n, the pin's output value will only be updated by the GPIOTE module. The pin's output value as specified in the GPIO will therefore be ignored as long as the pin is controlled by GPIOTE. Attempting to write a pin as a normal GPIO pin will have no effect. When the GPIOTE is disconnected from a pin, see MODE field in CONFIG[n] register, the associated pin will get the output and configuration values specified in the GPIO module. When conflicting tasks are triggered simultaneously (i.e. during the same clock cycle) in one channel, the precedence of the tasks will be as described in Task priorities on page 125. Priority Task 1 OUT 2 CLR 3 SET Table 40: Task priorities When setting the CONFIG[n] registers, MODE=Disabled does not have the same effect as MODE=Task and POLARITY=None. In the latter case, a CLR or SET task occurring at the exact same time as OUT will end up with no change on the pin, according to the priorities described in the table above. When a GPIOTE channel is configured to operate on a pin as a task, the initial value of that pin is configured in the OUTINIT field of CONFIG[n]. 6.9.2 Port event PORT is an event that can be generated from multiple input pins using the GPIO DETECT signal. The event will be generated on the rising edge of the DETECT signal. See GPIO — General purpose input/ output on page 116 for more information about the DETECT signal. Putting the system into System ON IDLE while DETECT is high will not cause DETECT to wake the system up again. Make sure to clear all DETECT sources before entering sleep. If the LATCH register is used as a source, if any bit in LATCH is still high after clearing all or part of the register (for instance due to one of the PINx.DETECT signal still high), a new rising edge will be generated on DETECT, see Pin configuration on page 117. Trying to put the system to System OFF while DETECT is high will cause a wakeup from System OFF reset. This feature is always enabled although the peripheral itself appears to be IDLE, that is, no clocks or other power intensive infrastructure have to be requested to keep this feature enabled. This feature can therefore be used to wake up the CPU from a WFI or WFE type sleep in System ON with all peripherals and the CPU idle, that is, lowest power consumption in System ON mode. In order to prevent spurious interrupts from the PORT event while configuring the sources, the user shall first disable interrupts on the PORT event (through INTENCLR.PORT), then configure the sources (PIN_CNF[n].SENSE), clear any potential event that could have occurred during configuration (write '0' to EVENTS_PORT), and finally enable interrupts (through INTENSET.PORT). 6.9.3 Tasks and events pin configuration Each GPIOTE channel is associated with one physical GPIO pin through the CONFIG.PSEL field. When Event mode is selected in CONFIG.MODE, the pin specified by CONFIG.PSEL will be configured as an input, overriding the DIR setting in GPIO. Similarly, when Task mode is selected in CONFIG.MODE, the pin specified by CONFIG.PSEL will be configured as an output overriding the DIR setting and OUT value in GPIO. When Disabled is selected in CONFIG.MODE, the pin specified by CONFIG.PSEL will use its configuration from the PIN[n].CNF registers in GPIO. 4430_161 v1.3 125 Peripherals Only one GPIOTE channel can be assigned to one physical pin.

The PDM module generates the PDM clock and supports single-channel or dual-channel (Left and Right) data input. Data is transferred directly to RAM buffers using EasyDMA. Listed here are the main features for PDM: • • • • Up to two PDM microphones configured as a Left/Right pair using the same data input 16 kHz output sample rate, 16-bit samples EasyDMA support for sample buffering HW decimation filters The PDM module illustrated in PDM module on page 130 is interfacing up to two digital microphones with the PDM interface. It implements EasyDMA, which relieves real-time requirements associated with controlling the PDM slave from a low priority CPU execution context. It also includes all the necessary digital filter elements to produce PCM samples. The PDM module allows continuous audio streaming. CLK Band-pass and Decimation (left) PDM to PCM Band-pass and Decimation (right) RAM PDM to PCM EasyDMA Sampling DIN Master clock generator Figure 41: PDM module 6.10.1 Master clock generator The FREQ field in the master clock's PDMCLKCTRL register allows adjusting the PDM clock's frequency. The master clock generator does not add any jitter to the HFCLK source chosen. It is recommended (but not mandatory) to use the Xtal as HFCLK source. 6.10.2 Module operation By default, bits from the left PDM microphone are sampled on PDM_CLK falling edge, bits for the right are sampled on the rising edge of PDM_CLK, resulting in two bitstreams. Each bitstream is fed into a digital filter which converts the PDM stream into 16-bit PCM samples, and filters and down-samples them to reach the appropriate sample rate. 4430_161 v1.3 130 Peripherals The EDGE field in the MODE register allows swapping Left and Right, so that Left will be sampled on rising edge, and Right on falling. The PDM module uses EasyDMA to store the samples coming out from the filters into one buffer in RAM. Depending on the mode chosen in the OPERATION field in the MODE register, memory either contains alternating left and right 16-bit samples (Stereo), or only left 16-bit samples (Mono). To ensure continuous PDM sampling, it is up to the application to update the EasyDMA destination address pointer as the previous buffer is filled. The continuous transfer can be started or stopped by sending the START and STOP tasks. STOP becomes effective after the current frame has finished transferring, which will generate the STOPPED event. The STOPPED event indicates that all activity in the module are finished, and that the data is available in RAM (EasyDMA has finished transferring as well). Attempting to restart before receiving the STOPPED event may result in unpredictable behaviour. 6.10.3 Decimation filter In order to convert the incoming data stream into PCM audio samples, a decimation filter is included in the PDM interface module. The input of the filter is the two-channel PDM serial stream (with left channel on clock high, right channel on clock low), its output is 2 × 16-bit PCM samples at a sample rate 64 times lower than the PDM clock rate. The filter stage of each channel is followed by a digital volume control, to attenuate or amplify the output samples in a range of -20 dB to +20 dB around the default (reset) setting, defined by GPDM,default. The gain is controlled by the GAINL and GAINR registers. As an example, if the goal is to achieve 2500 RMS output samples (16 bit) with a 1 kHz 90 dBA signal into a -26 dBFS sensitivity PDM microphone, the user will have to sum the PDM module's default gain ( GPDM,default ) and the gain introduced by the microphone and acoustic path of his implementation (an attenuation would translate into a negative gain), and adjust GAINL and GAINR by this amount. Assuming that only the PDM module influences the gain, GAINL and GAINR must be set to -GPDM,default dB to achieve the requirement. With GPDM,default=3.2 dB, and as GAINL and GAINR are expressed in 0.5 dB steps, the closest value to program would be 3.0 dB, which can be calculated as: GAINL = GAINR = (DefaultGain - (2 * 3)) Remember to check that the resulting values programmed into GAINL and GAINR fall within MinGain and MaxGain. 6.10.4 EasyDMA Samples will be written directly to RAM, and EasyDMA must be configured accordingly. The address pointer for the EasyDMA channel is set in SAMPLE.PTR register. If the destination address set in SAMPLE.PTR is not pointing to the Data RAM region, an EasyDMA transfer may result in a HardFault or RAM corruption. See Memory on page 17 for more information about the different memory regions. DMA supports Stereo (Left+Right 16-bit samples) and Mono (Left only) data transfer, depending on setting in the OPERATION field in the MODE register. The samples are stored little endian. 4430_161 v1.3 131 Peripherals MODE.OPERATION Bits per sample Stereo 32 (2x16) Mono 16 Result stored per RAM Physical RAM allocated Result boundary indexes Note word (32 bit words) in RAM L+R ceil(SAMPLE.MAXCNT/2) R0=[31:16]; L0=[15:0] 2xL ceil(SAMPLE.MAXCNT/2) L1=[31:16]; L0=[15:0] Default Table 43: DMA sample storage The destination buffer in RAM consists of one block, the size of which is set in SAMPLE.MAXCNT register. Format is number of 16-bit samples. The physical RAM allocated is always: (RAM allocation, in bytes) = SAMPLE.MAXCNT * 2; (but the mapping of the samples depends on MODE.OPERATION. If OPERATION=Stereo, RAM will contain a succession of Left and Right samples. If OPERATION=Mono, RAM will contain a succession of mono samples. For a given value of SAMPLE.MAXCNT, the buffer in RAM can contain half the stereo sampling time as compared to the mono sampling time. The PDM acquisition can be started by the START task, after the SAMPLE.PTR and SAMPLE.MAXCNT registers have been written. When starting the module, it will take some time for the filters to start outputting valid data. Transients from the PDM microphone itself may also occur. The first few samples (typically around 50) might hence contain invalid values or transients. It is therefore advised to discard the first few samples after a PDM start. As soon as the STARTED event is received, the firmware can write the next SAMPLE.PTR value (this register is double-buffered), to ensure continuous operation. When the buffer in RAM is filled with samples, an END event is triggered. The firmware can start processing the data in the buffer. Meanwhile, the PDM module starts acquiring data into the new buffer pointed to by SAMPLE.PTR, and sends a new STARTED event, so that the firmware can update SAMPLE.PTR to the next buffer address. 6.10.5 Hardware example Connect the microphone clock to CLK, and data to DIN.

If two microphones are used, one of them has to be set as left, the other as right (L/R pin tied high or to GND on the respective microphone). It is strongly recommended to use two microphones of exactly the same brand and type so that their timings in left and right operation match. Vdd L/R nRFxxxxx CLK CLK DATA DIN Vdd CLK L/R DATA CLK DIN Figure 44: Example of two PDM microphones 6.10.6 Pin configuration The CLK and DIN signals associated to the PDM module are mapped to physical pins according to the configuration specified in the PSEL.CLK and PSEL.DIN registers respectively. If the CONNECT field in any PSEL register is set to Disconnected, the associated PDM module signal will not be connected to the required physical pins, and will not operate properly. The PSEL.CLK and PSEL.DIN registers and their configurations are only used as long as the PDM module is enabled, and retained only as long as the device is in System ON mode. See POWER — Power supply on page 49 for more information about power modes. When the peripheral is disabled, the pins will behave as regular GPIOs, and use the configuration in their respective OUT bit field and PIN_CNF[n] register. To ensure correct behaviour in the PDM module, the pins used by the PDM module must be configured in the GPIO peripheral as described in GPIO configuration before enabling peripheral on page 133 before enabling the PDM module. This is to ensure that the pins used by the PDM module are driven correctly if the PDM module itself is temporarily disabled or the device temporarily enters System OFF. This configuration must be retained in the GPIO for the selected I/Os as long as the PDM module is supposed to be connected to an external PDM circuit. Only one peripheral can be assigned to drive a particular GPIO pin at a time. Failing to do so may result in unpredictable behaviour.

The PPI allows precise synchronization between peripherals when real-time application constraints exist and eliminates the need for CPU activity to implement behavior which can be predefined using PPI.

CHG[m] 16MHz Task 1 Task 1 Task 2 Task 3 CH[0].TEP Peripheral 1 Peripheral 2 FORK[0].TEP Figure 46: PPI block diagram The PPI system has, in addition to the fully programmable peripheral interconnections, a set of channels where the event end point (EEP) and task end points (TEP) are fixed in hardware. These fixed channels can be individually enabled, disabled, or added to PPI channel groups (see CHG[n] registers), in the same way as ordinary PPI channels. 4430_161 v1.3 140 Peripherals Instance Channel Number of channels PPI 0-19 20 PPI (fixed) 20-31 12 Table 47: Configurable and fixed PPI channels The PPI provides a mechanism to automatically trigger a task in one peripheral as a result of an event occurring in another peripheral. A task is connected to an event through a PPI channel. The PPI channel is composed of three end point registers, one EEP and two TEPs. A peripheral task is connected to a TEP using the address of the task register associated with the task. Similarly, a peripheral event is connected to an EEP using the address of the event register associated with the event. On each PPI channel, the signals are synchronized to the 16 MHz clock, to avoid any internal violation of setup and hold timings. As a consequence, events that are synchronous to the 16 MHz clock will be delayed by one clock period, while other asynchronous events will be delayed by up to one 16 MHz clock period. Note that shortcuts (as defined in the SHORTS register in each peripheral) are not affected by this 16 MHz synchronization, and are therefore not delayed. Each TEP implements a fork mechanism that enables a second task to be triggered at the same time as the task specified in the TEP is triggered. This second task is configured in the task end point register in the FORK registers groups, e.g. FORK.TEP[0] is associated with PPI channel CH[0]. There are two ways of enabling and disabling PPI channels: • Enable or disable PPI channels individually using the CHEN, CHENSET, and CHENCLR registers. • Enable or disable PPI channels in PPI channel groups through the groups’ ENABLE and DISABLE tasks. Prior to these tasks being triggered, the PPI channel group must be configured to define which PPI channels belong to which groups. Note that when a channel belongs to two groups m and n, and the tasks CHG[m].EN and CHG[n].DIS occur simultaneously (m and n can be equal or different), the CHG[m].EN on that channel has priority. PPI tasks (for example, CHG[0].EN) can be triggered through the PPI like any other task, which means they can be hooked to a PPI channel as a TEP. One event can trigger multiple tasks by using multiple channels and one task can be triggered by multiple events in the same way. 6.11.1 Pre-programmed channels Some of the PPI channels are pre-programmed. These channels cannot be configured by the CPU, but can be added to groups and enabled and disabled like the general purpose PPI channels. The FORK TEP for these channels are still programmable and can be used by the application. For a list of pre-programmed PPI channels, see the table below. 4430_161 v1.3 141 Peripherals Channel EEP TEP 20 TIMER0->EVENTS_COMPARE[0] RADIO->TASKS_TXEN 21 TIMER0->EVENTS_COMPARE[0]

The module implements an up or up-and-down counter with four PWM channels that drive assigned GPIOs. The following are the main features of a PWM module: • • • • • Programmable PWM frequency Up to four PWM channels with individual polarity and duty cycle values Edge or center-aligned pulses across PWM channels Multiple duty cycle arrays (sequences) defined in RAM Autonomous and glitch-free update of duty cycle values directly from memory through EasyDMA (no CPU involvement) • Change of polarity, duty cycle, and base frequency possibly on every PWM period • RAM sequences can be repeated or connected into loops 4430_161 v1.3 146 Peripherals Sequence 0 DATA RAM STARTED STOPPED EasyDMA START Sequence 1 PWM STOP SEQSTART[0] SEQSTART[1] SEQ[n].REFRESH SEQSTARTED[0] SEQSTARTED[1] SEQEND[0] SEQEND[1] Decoder NEXTSTEP Carry/Reload COMP0 PSEL.OUT[0] COMP1 PSEL.OUT[1] COMP2 PSEL.OUT[2] COMP3 PSEL.OUT[3] Wave Counter PWM_CLK COUNTERTOP PRESCALER Figure 47: PWM module 6.12.1 Wave counter The wave counter is responsible for generating the pulses at a duty cycle that depends on the compare values, and at a frequency that depends on COUNTERTOP. There is one common 15-bit counter with four compare channels. Thus, all four channels will share the same period (PWM frequency), but can have individual duty cycle and polarity. The polarity is set by a value read from RAM (see figure Decoder memory access modes on page 150). Whether the counter counts up, or up and down, is controlled by the MODE register. The timer top value is controlled by the COUNTERTOP register. This register value, in conjunction with the selected PRESCALER of the PWM_CLK, will result in a given PWM period. A COUNTERTOP value smaller than the compare setting will result in a state where no PWM edges are generated. OUT[n] is held high, given that the polarity is set to FallingEdge. All compare registers are internal and can only be configured through decoder presented later. COUNTERTOP can be safely written at any time. Sampling follows the START task. If DECODER.LOAD=WaveForm, the register value is ignored and taken from RAM instead (see section Decoder with EasyDMA on page 150 for more details). If DECODER.LOAD is anything else than the WaveForm, it is sampled following a STARTSEQ[n] task and when loading a new value from RAM during a sequence playback. The following figure shows the counter operating in up mode (MODE=PWM_MODE_Up), with three PWM channels with the same frequency but different duty cycle: 4430_161 v1.3 147 Peripherals COUNTERTOP COMP1 COMP0 OUT[0] OUT[1] Figure 48: PWM counter in up mode example - FallingEdge polarity The counter is automatically reset to zero when COUNTERTOP is reached and OUT[n] will invert. OUT[n] is held low if the compare value is 0 and held high if set to COUNTERTOP, given that the polarity is set to FallingEdge. Counter running in up mode results in pulse widths that are edge-aligned. The following is the code for the counter in up mode example: uint16_t pwm_seq[4] = {PWM_CH0_DUTY, PWM_CH1_DUTY, PWM_CH2_DUTY, PWM_CH3_DUTY}; NRF_PWM0->PSEL.OUT[0] = (first_pin PSEL.OUT[0] = (first_pin PSEL.OUT[0] = (first_pin DECODER = (PWM_LOOP_CNT_Disabled SEQ[0].PTR = (PWM_DECODER_LOAD_Common SEQ[0].CNT (PWM_DECODER_MODE_RefreshCount TASKS_SEQSTART[0] = 1; To completely stop the PWM generation and force the associated pins to a defined state, a STOP task can be triggered at any time. A STOPPED event is generated when the PWM generation has stopped at the end of currently running PWM period, and the pins go into their idle state as defined in GPIO OUT register. PWM generation can then only be restarted through a SEQSTART[n] task. SEQSTART[n] will resume PWM generation after having loaded the first value from the RAM buffer defined in the SEQ[n].PTR register. The table below indicates when specific registers get sampled by the hardware. Care should be taken when updating these registers to avoid that values are applied earlier than expected. 4430_161 v1.3 152 Peripherals Register Taken into account by hardware Recommended (safe) update SEQ[n].PTR When sending the SEQSTART[n] task After having received the SEQSTARTED[n] event SEQ[n].CNT When sending the SEQSTART[n] task After having received the SEQSTARTED[n] event SEQ[0].ENDDELAY When sending the SEQSTART[0] task Before starting sequence [0] through a SEQSTART[0] task Every time a new value from sequence [0] has been loaded from When no more value from sequence [0] gets loaded from RAM RAM and gets applied to the Wave Counter (indicated by the (indicated by the SEQEND[0] event) PWMPERIODEND event) At any time during sequence [1] (which starts when the SEQSTARTED[1] event is generated) SEQ[1].ENDDELAY When sending the SEQSTART[1] task Before starting sequence [1] through a SEQSTART[1] task Every time a new value from sequence [1] has been loaded from When no more value from sequence [1] gets loaded from RAM RAM and gets applied to the Wave Counter (indicated by the (indicated by the SEQEND[1] event) PWMPERIODEND event) At any time during sequence [0] (which starts when the SEQSTARTED[0] event is generated) SEQ[0].REFRESH When sending the SEQSTART[0] task Before starting sequence [0] through a SEQSTART[0] task Every time a new value from sequence [0] has been loaded from At any time during sequence [1] (which starts when the RAM and gets applied to the Wave Counter (indicated by the SEQSTARTED[1] event is generated) PWMPERIODEND event) SEQ[1].REFRESH When sending the SEQSTART[1] task Before starting sequence [1] through a SEQSTART[1] task Every time a new value from sequence [1] has been loaded from At any time during sequence [0] (which starts when the RAM and gets applied to the Wave Counter (indicated by the SEQSTARTED[0] event is generated) PWMPERIODEND event) COUNTERTOP MODE In DECODER.LOAD=WaveForm: this register is ignored.

PSEL.OUT[n] Immediately Before enabling the PWM instance through the ENABLE register Table 51: When to safely update PWM registers Note: SEQ[n].REFRESH and SEQ[n].ENDDELAY are ignored at the end of a complex sequence, indicated by a LOOPSDONE event. The reason for this is that the last value loaded from RAM is maintained until further action from software (restarting a new sequence, or stopping PWM generation). A more complex example, where LOOP.CNT>0, is shown in the following figure: 4430_161 v1.3 153 Peripherals SEQ[0].CNT=2, SEQ[1].CNT=3, SEQ[0].REFRESH=1, SEQ[1].REFRESH=0, SEQ[0].ENDDELAY=1, SEQ[1].ENDDELAY=0, LOOP.CNT=1 SEQ[0].PTR P O COMPARE L PWM clock period Event/Tasks SEQSTART[0] P O COMPARE L (continued below) SEQSTARTED[0] SEQEND[0] SEQ[1].PTR 1 PWM period SEQ[0].ENDDELAY=1 (continuation) P O COMPARE L P O COMPARE L PWM generation maintains last played value Event/Tasks SEQSTARTED[1] SEQEND[1] LOOPSDONE Figure 52: Example using two sequences In this case, an automated playback takes place, consisting of SEQ[0], delay 0, SEQ[1], delay 1, then again SEQ[0], etc. The user can choose to start a complex playback with SEQ[0] or SEQ[1] through sending the SEQSTART[0] or SEQSTART[1] task. The complex playback always ends with delay 1. The two sequences 0 and 1 are defined by the addresses of value tables in RAM (pointed to by SEQ[n].PTR) and the buffer size (SEQ[n].CNT). The rate at which a new value is loaded is defined individually for each sequence by SEQ[n].REFRESH. The chaining of sequence 1 following the sequence 0 is implicit, the LOOP.CNT register allows the chaining of sequence 1 to sequence 0 for a determined number of times. In other words, it allows to repeat a complex sequence a number of times in a fully automated way. In the following code example, sequence 0 is defined with SEQ[0].REFRESH set to 1, meaning that a new PWM duty cycle is pushed every second PWM period. This complex sequence is started with the SEQSTART[0] task, so SEQ[0] is played first. Since SEQ[0].ENDDELAY=1 there will be one PWM period delay between last period on sequence 0 and the first period on sequence 1. Since SEQ[1].ENDDELAY=0 there is no delay 1, so SEQ[0] would be started immediately after the end of SEQ[1]. However, as LOOP.CNT is 4430_161 v1.3 154 Peripherals 1, the playback stops after having played SEQ[1] only once, and both SEQEND[1] and LOOPSDONE are generated (their order is not guaranteed in this case).

If the DECODER.MODE register is set to NextStep, then the NEXTSTEP task will cause an update of internal compare registers on the next PWM period. The following figures provide an overview of each part of an arbitrary sequence, in various modes (LOOP.CNT=0 and LOOP.CNT>0).

This is to ensure a glitch-free operation even for very short PWM periods. 6.12.4 Pin configuration The OUT[n] (n=0..3) signals associated with each PWM channel are mapped to physical pins according to the configuration of PSEL.OUT[n] registers. If PSEL.OUT[n].CONNECT is set to Disconnected, the associated PWM module signal will not be connected to any physical pins. The PSEL.OUT[n] registers and their configurations are used as long as the PWM module is enabled and the PWM generation active (wave counter started). They are retained only as long as the device is in System ON mode (see section POWER for more information about power modes). To ensure correct behavior in the PWM module, the pins that are used must be configured in the GPIO peripheral in the following way before the PWM module is enabled: PWM signal PWM pin Direction Output value Comment OUT[n] As specified in PSEL.OUT[n] Output 0 Idle state defined in GPIO OUT (n=0..3) register Table 52: Recommended GPIO configuration before starting PWM generation 4430_161 v1.3 157 Peripherals The idle state of a pin is defined by the OUT register in the GPIO module, to ensure that the pins used by the PWM module are driven correctly. If PWM generation is stopped by triggering a STOP task, the PWM module itself is temporarily disabled or the device temporarily enters System OFF. This configuration must be retained in the GPIO for the selected pins (I/Os) for as long as the PWM module is supposed to be connected to an external PWM circuit. Only one peripheral can be assigned to drive a particular GPIO pin at a time. Failing to do so may result in unpredictable behavior. 6.12.5 Registers Base address Peripheral Instance Description 0x4001C000 PWM PWM0 Pulse-width modulation unit 0 Configuration Table 53: Instances Register Offset Description TASKS_STOP 0x004 Stops PWM pulse generation on all channels at the end of current PWM period, and stops TASKS_SEQSTART[0] 0x008 sequence playback Loads the first PWM value on all enabled channels from sequence 0, and starts playing that sequence at the rate defined in SEQ[0]REFRESH and/or DECODER.MODE.

It is suitable for mechanical and optical sensors. 4430_161 v1.3 166 Peripherals The sample period and accumulation are configurable to match application requirements. The QDEC provides the following: • • • • Decoding of digital waveform from off-chip quadrature encoder. Sample accumulation eliminating hard real-time requirements to be enforced on application. Optional input de-bounce filters. Optional LED output signal for optical encoders. ACCREAD ACCDBLREAD ACC ACCDBL + + SAMPLE Quadrature decoder IO router On-chip Off-chip Phase A Phase B LED Mechanical to electrical Mechanical device Quadrature Encoder Figure 56: Quadrature decoder configuration 6.13.1 Sampling and decoding The QDEC decodes the output from an incremental motion encoder by sampling the QDEC phase input pins (A and B). The off-chip quadrature encoder is an incremental motion encoder outputting two waveforms, phase A and phase B. The two output waveforms are always 90 degrees out of phase, meaning that one always changes level before the other. The direction of movement is indicated by which of these two waveforms that changes level first. Invalid transitions may occur, that is when the two waveforms switch simultaneously. This may occur if the wheel rotates too fast relative to the sample rate set for the decoder. The QDEC decodes the output from the off-chip encoder by sampling the QDEC phase input pins (A and B) at a fixed rate as specified in the SAMPLEPER register. If the SAMPLEPER value needs to be changed, the QDEC shall be stopped using the STOP task. SAMPLEPER can be then changed upon receiving the STOPPED event, and QDEC can be restarted using the START task. Failing to do so may result in unpredictable behaviour. 4430_161 v1.3 167 Peripherals It is good practice to change other registers (LEDPOL, REPORTPER, DBFEN and LEDPRE) only when the QDEC is stopped. When started, the decoder continuously samples the two input waveforms and decodes these by comparing the current sample pair (n) with the previous sample pair (n-1). The decoding of the sample pairs is described in the table below. Previous Current SAMPLE sample pair(n samples register - 1) ACC operation ACCDBL Description operation pair(n) A B A B 0 0 0 0 0 No change No change No movement 0 0 0 1 1 Increment No change Movement in positive direction 0 0 1 0 -1 Decrement No change Movement in negative direction 0 0 1 1 2 No change Increment Error: Double transition 0 1 0 0 -1 Decrement No change Movement in negative direction 0 1 0 1 0 No change No change No movement 0 1 1 0 2 No change Increment Error: Double transition 0 1 1 1 1 Increment No change Movement in positive direction 1 0 0 0 1 Increment No change Movement in positive direction 1 0 0 1 2 No change Increment Error: Double transition 1 0 1 0 0 No change No change No movement 1 0 1 1 -1 Decrement No change Movement in negative direction 1 1 0 0 2 No change Increment Error: Double transition 1 1 0 1 -1 Decrement No change Movement in negative direction 1 1 1 0 1 Increment No change Movement in positive direction 1 1 1 1 0 No change No change No movement Table 55: Sampled value encoding 6.13.2 LED output The LED output follows the sample period, and the LED is switched on a given period before sampling and switched off immediately after the inputs are sampled. The period the LED is switched on before sampling is given in the LEDPRE register. The LED output pin polarity is specified in the LEDPOL register. For using off-chip mechanical encoders not requiring a LED, the LED output can be disabled by writing value 'Disconnected' to the CONNECT field of the PSEL.LED register. In this case the QDEC will not acquire access to a LED output pin and the pin can be used for other purposes by the CPU. 6.13.3 Debounce filters Each of the two-phase inputs have digital debounce filters. When enabled through the DBFEN register, the filter inputs are sampled at a fixed 1 MHz frequency during the entire sample period (which is specified in the SAMPLEPER register), and the filters require all of the samples within this sample period to equal before the input signal is accepted and transferred to the output of the filter. As a result, only input signal with a steady state longer than twice the period specified in SAMPLEPER are guaranteed to pass through the filter, and any signal with a steady state shorter than SAMPLEPER will always be suppressed by the filter. (This is assumed that the frequency during the debounce period never exceeds 500 kHz (as required by the Nyquist theorem when using a 1 MHz sample frequency). The LED will always be ON when the debounce filters are enabled, as the inputs in this case will be sampled continuously. 4430_161 v1.3 168 Peripherals Note that when when the debounce filters are enabled, displacements reported by the QDEC peripheral are delayed by one SAMPLEPER period. 6.13.4 Accumulators The quadrature decoder contains two accumulator registers, ACC and ACCDBL, that accumulate respectively valid motion sample values and the number of detected invalid samples (double transitions). The ACC register will accumulate all valid values (1/-1) written to the SAMPLE register. This can be useful for preventing hard real-time requirements from being enforced on the application. When using the ACC register the application does not need to read every single sample from the SAMPLE register, but can instead fetch the ACC register whenever it fits the application. The ACC register will always hold the relative movement of the external mechanical device since the previous clearing of the ACC register. Sample values indicating a double transition (2) will not be accumulated in the ACC register. An ACCOF event will be generated if the ACC receives a SAMPLE value that would cause the register to overflow or underflow. Any SAMPLE value that would cause an ACC overflow or underflow will be discarded, but any samples not causing the ACC to overflow or underflow will still be accepted. The accumulator ACCDBL accumulates the number of detected double transitions since the previous clearing of the ACCDBL register. The ACC and ACCDBL registers can be cleared by the READCLRACC and subsequently read using the ACCREAD and ACCDBLREAD registers. The ACC register can be separately cleared by the RDCLRACC and subsequently read using the ACCREAD registers. The ACCDBL register can be separately cleared by the RDCLRDBL and subsequently read using the ACCDBLREAD registers. The REPORTPER register allows automating the capture of several samples before it can send out a REPORTRDY event in case a non-null displacement has been captured and accumulated, and a DBLRDY event in case one or more double-displacements have been captured and accumulated. The REPORTPER field in this register selects after how many samples the accumulators contents are evaluated to send (or not) REPORTRDY and DBLRDY events. Using the RDCLRACC task (manually sent upon receiving the event, or using the DBLRDY_RDCLRACC shortcut), ACCREAD can then be read. In case at least one double transition has been captured and accumulated, a DBLRDY event is sent. Using the RDCLRDBL task (manually sent upon receiving the event, or using the DBLRDY_RDCLRDBL shortcut), ACCDBLREAD can then be read. 6.13.5 Output/input pins The QDEC uses a three-pin interface to the off-chip quadrature encoder. These pins will be acquired when the QDEC is enabled in the ENABLE register. The pins acquired by the QDEC cannot be written by the CPU, but they can still be read by the CPU. The pin numbers to be used for the QDEC are selected using the PSEL.n registers. 6.13.6 Pin configuration The Phase A, Phase B, and LED signals are mapped to physical pins according to the configuration specified in the PSEL.A, PSEL.B, and PSEL.LED registers respectively. If the CONNECT field value 'Disconnected' is specified in any of these registers, the associated signal will not be connected to any physical pin. The PSEL.A, PSEL.B, and PSEL.LED registers and their configurations are only used as long as the QDEC is enabled, and retained only as long as the device is in ON mode. 4430_161 v1.3 169 Peripherals When the peripheral is disabled, the pins will behave as regular GPIOs, and use the configuration in their respective OUT bit field and PIN_CNF[n] register. To secure correct behavior in the QDEC, the pins used by the QDEC must be configured in the GPIO peripheral as described in GPIO configuration before enabling peripheral on page 170 before enabling the QDEC. This configuration must be retained in the GPIO for the selected IOs as long as the QDEC is enabled. Only one peripheral can be assigned to drive a particular GPIO pin at a time. Failing to do so may result in unpredictable behavior.

EasyDMA in combination with an automated packet assembler and packet disassembler, and an automated CRC generator and CRC checker, makes it very easy to configure and use the RADIO. See RADIO block diagram on page 181 for details. RAM RADIO PACKETPTR Device address match Packet synch S0 CRC Packet disassembler L RSSI Address match Dewhitening 2.4 GHz receiver S1 Payload EasyDMA IFS control unit Bit counter S0 ANT1 L Packet assembler S1 Payload CRC Whitening 2.4 GHz transmitter MAXLEN Figure 57: RADIO block diagram The RADIO includes a device address match unit and an interframe spacing control unit that can be utilized to simplify address white listing and interframe spacing respectively, in Bluetooth® Smart and similar applications. The RADIO also includes a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) and a bit counter. The bit counter generates events when a preconfigured number of bits have been sent or received by the RADIO. 6.14.1 EasyDMA The RADIO peripheral uses EasyDMA for reading of data packets from and writing to RAM, without CPU involvement. 4430_161 v1.3 181 Peripherals As illustrated in RADIO block diagram on page 181, the RADIO's EasyDMA utilizes the same PACKETPTR on page 201 for receiving and transmitting packets, and this pointer can only point to the Data RAM region. See Memory on page 17 for more information about the different memoryregions. The DISABLED event indicates that the EasyDMA has finished accessing the RAM. The structure of a radio packet is described in detail in Packet configuration on page 182. The data that is stored in Data RAM and transported by EasyDMA consists of the following fields: • • • • S0 LENGTH S1 PAYLOAD In addition, a static add-on is sent immediately after the payload. The size of each of the above fields in the frame is configurable, and the space occupied in RAM depends on these settings. A size of zero is possible for any of the fields, it is up to the user to make sure that the resulting frame complies with the RF protocol chosen. For the field sizes defined in bits, the occupation in RAM will always be rounded up to the next full byte size (for instance 3 bit length will allocate 1 byte in RAM, 9 bit length will allocate 2 bytes, etc.). The sizes of the fields S0, LENGTH and S1 can be individually configured by the S0LEN, LFLEN and S1LEN fields of the PCNF0 register respectively. The size of the payload is configured through the value in RAM corresponding to the LENGTH field. The size of the static add-on to the payload is configured through the STATLEN field in PCNF1 register. The MAXLEN field in the PCNF1 register configures the maximum packet payload plus add-on size in number of bytes that can be transmitted or received by the RADIO. This feature can be used to ensure that the RADIO does not overwrite, or read beyond, the RAM assigned to the packet payload. This means that if the packet payload length defined by the PCNF1.STATLEN and the LENGTH field in the packet specify a packet larger than MAXLEN, the payload will be truncated at MAXLEN. The packet's LENGTH field will not be altered when the payload is truncated. The RADIO will calculate CRC as if the packet length is equal to MAXLEN. Important: Note that MAXLEN includes the size of the payload and the add-on, but excludes the size occupied by the fields S0, LENGTH and S1. This has to be taken into account when allocating RAM. 6.14.2 Packet configuration RADIO packet contains the following fields: PREAMBLE, ADDRESS, S0, LENGTH, S1, PAYLOAD and CRC. The content of a RADIO packet is illustrated in On-air packet layout on page 182. The RADIO sends the different fields in the packet in the order they are illustrated below, from left to right: BASE PREFIX S0 LENGTH LSByte S1 PAYLOAD LSByte MSBit PREAMBLE LSBit LSBit LSBit 0x55 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0xAA 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 CRC MSByte ADDRESS Figure 58: On-air packet layout PREAMBLE is sent with least significant bit first on-air. For all modes that can be specified in the MODE register, the PREAMBLE is one byte long. If the first bit of the ADDRESS is 0, the PREAMBLE is set to 0xAA. Otherwise the PREAMBLE is set to 0x55. Not shown in the figure above is the static payload add-on (the length of which is defined in PCNF1.STATLEN, and which is 0 bytes long in a standard BLE packet). The static payload add-on is sent between the PAYLOAD and CRC fields. 4430_161 v1.3 182 Peripherals The RADIO packets are stored in memory, inside instances of a radio packet data structure as illustrated in In-RAM representation of radio packet - S0, LENGTH and S1 are optional on page 183. The PREAMBLE, ADDRESS and CRC fields are omitted in this data structure. S0 LENGTH S1 0 PAYLOAD LSByte n Figure 59: In-RAM representation of radio packet - S0, LENGTH and S1 are optional The byte ordering on the air is always: • Least significant byte first for the fields ADDRESS and PAYLOAD. The ADDRESS fields are also always transmitted and received least significant bit first on-air. • Most significant byte first for the CRC field. The CRC field is also always transmitted and received most significant bit first. The bit endianness, i.e. the order in which the bits are sent and received, is configured in PCNF1.ENDIAN for the fields S0, LENGTH, S1 and PAYLOAD. The sizes of the fields S0, LENGTH and S1 can be individually configured in the S0LEN, LFLEN and S1LEN fields of the PCNF0 register respectively. If any of these fields are configured to be less than 8 bit long, the least significant bits of the fields are used, as seen from the RAM representation. If S0, LENGTH or S1 are specified with zero length, their fields will be omitted in memory. Otherwise each field will be represented as a separate byte, regardless of the number of bits in their on-air counterpart. 6.14.3 Maximum packet length Independent of the configuration of MAXLEN, the combined length of S0, LENGTH, S1 and PAYLOAD cannot exceed 258 bytes. 6.14.4 Address configuration The on-air radio ADDRESS field is composed of two parts, the base address field and the address prefix field. The size of the base address field is configurable via BALEN in PCNF1. The base address is truncated from LSByte if the BALEN is less than 4. See Definition of logical addresses on page 184. The on-air addresses are defined in the BASEn and PREFIXn registers, and it is only when writing these registers the user will have to relate to actual on-air addresses. For other radio address registers such as the TXADDRESS, RXADDRESSES and RXMATCH registers, logical radio addresses ranging from 0 to 7 are being used. The relationship between the on-air radio addresses and the logical addresses is described in Definition of logical addresses on page 184. 4430_161 v1.3 183 Peripherals Logical address Base address Prefix byte 0 BASE0 PREFIX0.AP0 1 BASE1 PREFIX0.AP1 2 BASE1 PREFIX0.AP2 3 BASE1 PREFIX0.AP3 4 BASE1 PREFIX1.AP4 5 BASE1 PREFIX1.AP5 6 BASE1 PREFIX1.AP6 7 BASE1 PREFIX1.AP7 Table 59: Definition of logical addresses 6.14.5 Data whitening The RADIO is able to do packet whitening and de-whitening. See WHITEEN in PCNF1 register for how to enable whitening. When enabled, whitening and de-whitening will be handled by the RADIO automatically as packets are sent and received. The whitening word is generated using polynomial g(D) = D7+ D4 + 1, which then is XORed with the data packet that is to be whitened, or de-whitened. See the figure below. D0 D4 D7 + Position 0 1 2 3 Data out + 4 5 6 Data in Figure 60: Data whitening and de-whitening Whitening and de-whitening will be performed over the whole packet (except for the preamble and the address field). The linear feedback shift register, illustrated in Data whitening and de-whitening on page 184 can be initialised via the DATAWHITEIV register. 6.14.6 CRC The CRC generator in the RADIO calculates the CRC over the whole packet excluding the preamble. If desirable, the address field can be excluded from the CRC calculation as well See CRCCNF register for more information. The CRC polynomial is configurable as illustrated in CRC generation of an n bit CRC on page 185 where bit 0 in the CRCPOLY register corresponds to X0 and bit 1 corresponds to X1 etc. See CRCPOLY for more information. 4430_161 v1.3 184 Peripherals Xn-1 Xn X2 X1 X0 Packet (Clocked in serially) + + + + bn + b0 Figure 61: CRC generation of an n bit CRC As illustrated in CRC generation of an n bit CRC on page 185, the CRC is calculated by feeding the packet serially through the CRC generator. Before the packet is clocked through the CRC generator, the CRC generator's latches b0 through bn will be initialized with a predefined value specified in the CRCINIT register. When the whole packet is clocked through the CRC generator, latches b0 through bn will hold the resulting CRC. This value will be used by the RADIO during both transmission and reception but it is not available to be read by the CPU at any time. A received CRC can however be read by the CPU via the RXCRC register independent of whether or not it has passed the CRC check. The length (n) of the CRC is configurable, see CRCCNF for more information. After the whole packet including the CRC has been received, the RADIO will generate a CRCOK event if no CRC errors were detected, or alternatively generate a CRCERROR event if CRC errors were detected. The status of the CRC check can be read from the CRCSTATUS register after a packet has been received. 6.14.7 Radio states The RADIO can enter a number of states. The RADIO can enter the states described the table below. An overview state diagram for the RADIO is illustrated in Radio states on page 186. This figure shows how the tasks and events relate to the RADIO's operation. The RADIO does not prevent a task from being triggered from the wrong state. If a task is triggered from the wrong state, for example if the RXEN task is triggered from the RXDISABLE state, this may lead to incorrect behaviour. As illustrated in Radio states on page 186, the PAYLOAD event is always generated even if the payload is zero. State Description DISABLED No operations are going on inside the radio and the power consumption is at a minimum RXRU The radio is ramping up and preparing for reception RXIDLE The radio is ready for reception to start RX Reception has been started and the addresses enabled in the RXADDRESSES register are being monitored TXRU The radio is ramping up and preparing for transmission TXIDLE The radio is ready for transmission to start TX The radio is transmitting a packet RXDISABLE The radio is disabling the receiver TXDISABLE The radio is disabling the transmitter Table 60: RADIO state diagram 4430_161 v1.3 185 Peripherals DISABLE Address sent / ADDRESS START TXDISABLE TXRU / DISABLED Ramp-up complete / READY TXIDLE TX STOP Packet sent / END TXEN Payload sent [payload length >=0] / PAYLOAD DISABLED RXEN / DISABLED RXDISABLE Packet received / END Ramp-up complete / READY RXRU Address received [Address match] / ADDRESS START RXIDLE RX STOP Payload received [payload length >=0] / PAYLOAD DISABLE Figure 62: Radio states 6.14.8 Transmit sequence Before the RADIO is able to transmit a packet, it must first ramp-up in TX mode. See TXRU in Radio states on page 186 and Transmit sequence on page 186. A TXRU ramp-up sequence is initiated when the TXEN task is triggered. After the radio has successfully ramped up it will generate the READY event indicating that a packet transmission can be initiate. A packet transmission is initiated by triggering the START task. As illustrated in Radio states on page 186 the START task can first be triggered after the RADIO has entered into the TXIDLE state. P S0 L S1 TXIDLE PAYLOAD ADDRESS A 2 CRC TXDISABLE (carrier) DISABLE 3 START 1 TXEN Lifeline READY (carrier) TX DISABLED TXIDLE END Transmitter TXRU PAYLOAD State Transmit sequence on page 186 illustrates a single packet transmission where the CPU manually triggers the different tasks needed to control the flow of the RADIO, i.e. no shortcuts are used. If shortcuts are not used, a certain amount of delay caused by CPU execution is expected between READY and START, and between END and DISABLE. As illustrated in Transmit sequence on page 186 the RADIO will by default transmit '1's between READY and START, and between END and DISABLED. What is transmitted can be programmed through the DTX field in the MODECNF0 register. Figure 63: Transmit sequence A slightly modified version of the transmit sequence from Transmit sequence on page 186 is illustrated in Transmit sequence using shortcuts to avoid delays on page 187 where the RADIO is configured to 4430_161 v1.3 186 Peripherals TX PAYLOAD CRC PAYLOAD Lifeline S0 L S1 (carrier) DISABLED A READY P TXDISABLE ADDRESS Transmitter TXRU END State use shortcuts between READY and START, and between END and DISABLE, which means that no delay is introduced. 1 TXEN START DISABLE 2 Figure 64: Transmit sequence using shortcuts to avoid delays (carrier) P A S0 L S1 PAYLOAD CRC (carrier) DISABLED CRC END PAYLOAD PAYLOAD S0 L S1 TXDISABLE TX END A START 3 DISABLE 2 START 1 TXEN Lifeline READY P TXIDLE ADDRESS TX ADDRESS Transmitter TXRU PAYLOAD State The RADIO is able to send multiple packets one after the other without having to disable and re-enable the RADIO between packets, this is illustrated in Transmission of multiple packets on page 187. Figure 65: Transmission of multiple packets 6.14.9 Receive sequence Before the RADIO is able to receive a packet, it must first ramp up in RX mode See RXRU in Radio states on page 186 and Receive sequence on page 188. An RXRU ramp-up sequence is initiated when the RXEN task is triggered. After the radio has successfully ramped up it will generate the READY event indicating that a packet reception can be initiated. A packet reception is initiated by triggering the START task. As illustrated in Radio states on page 186 the START task can, first be triggered after the RADIO has entered into the RXIDLE state. Receive sequence on page 188 illustrates a single packet reception where the CPU manually triggers the different tasks needed to control the flow of the RADIO, i.e. no shortcuts are used. If shortcuts are not used, a certain amount of delay, caused by CPU execution, is expected between READY and START, and between END and DISABLE. As illustrated Receive sequence on page 188 the RADIO will be listening and possibly receiving undefined data, illustrated with an 'X', from START and until a packet with valid preamble (P) is received. 4430_161 v1.3 187 RX PAYLOAD CRC ADDRESS S0 L S1 2 DISABLE 3 START 1 RXEN Lifeline READY A RXDISABLE DISABLED P ’X’ RXIDLE END RXIDLE Reception RXRU PAYLOAD State Peripherals Figure 66: Receive sequence RX S0 L S1 PAYLOAD CRC DISABLED A END P RXDISABLE 1 2 DISABLE START RXEN Lifeline READY ’X’ ADDRESS Reception RXRU PAYLOAD State A slightly modified version of the receive sequence from Receive sequence on page 188 is illustrated in Receive sequence using shortcuts to avoid delays on page 188 where the the RADIO is configured to use shortcuts between READY and START, and between END and DISABLE, which means that no delay is introduced.

This feature is called received signal strength indicator (RSSI). Sampling of the received signal strength is started by using the RSSISTART task. The sample can be read from the RSSISAMPLE register. The sample period of the RSSI is defined by RSSIPERIOD, see the device product specification for details. The RSSI sample will hold the average received signal strength during this sample period. For the RSSI sample to be valid, the radio has to be enabled in the receive mode (RXEN task) and the reception has to be started (READY event followed by START task). 6.14.11 Interframe spacing Interframe spacing is the time interval between two consecutive packets. It is defined as the time (in microseconds) from the end of the last bit of the previous packet received and to the start of the first bit of the subsequent packet that is transmitted. The radio is able to enforce this interval as specified in the TIFS register as long as TIFS is not specified to be shorter than the radio’s turnaround time, i.e. the time needed to switch off the receiver, and switch back on the transmitter.

This feature enables on-the-fly device address matching while receiving a packet on air. This feature only works in receive mode and as long as the radio is configured for little endian, see PCNF1.ENDIAN. 4430_161 v1.3 189 Peripherals The device address match unit assumes that the 48 first bits of the payload is the device address and that bit number 6 in S0 is the TxAdd bit. See the Bluetooth® Core Specification for more information about device addresses, TxAdd and whitelisting. The radio is able to listen for eight different device addresses at the same time. These addresses are specified in a DAB/DAP register pair, one pair per address, in addition to a TxAdd bit configured in the DACNF register. The DAB register specifies the 32 least significant bits of the device address, while the DAP register specifies the 16 most significant bits of the device address. Each of the device addresses can be individually included or excluded from the matching mechanism. This is configured in the DACNF register. 6.14.13 Bit counter Radio implements a simple counter that can be configured to generate an event after a specific number of bits have been transmitted or received. By using shortcuts, this counter can be started from different events generated by the radio and hence count relative to these. The bit counter is started by triggering the BCSTART task, and stopped by triggering the BCSTOP task. A BCMATCH event will be generated when the bit counter has counted the number of bits specified in the BCC register. The bit counter will continue to count bits until the DISABLED event is generated or until the BCSTOP task is triggered. The CPU can therefore, after a BCMATCH event, reconfigure the BCC value for new BCMATCH events within the same packet. The bit counter can only be started after the radio has received the ADDRESS event. The bit counter will stop and reset on BCSTOP, STOP, END and DISABLE tasks.
