Notation
Meaning
General Register Notation
REGISTER
APB registers are indicated in uppercase bold. For example, PBORCTL is the Power-On and
Brown-Out Reset Control register. If a register name contains a lowercase n, it represents more
than one register. For example, SRCRn represents any (or all) of the three Software Reset Control
registers: SRCR0, SRCR1 , and SRCR2.
bit
A single bit in a register.
bit field
Two or more consecutive and related bits.
offset 0xnnn
A hexadecimal increment to a register's address, relative to that module's base address as specified
in Table 2-4 on page 79.
Register N
Registers are numbered consecutively throughout the document to aid in referencing them. The
register number has no meaning to software.
reserved
Register bits marked reserved are reserved for future use. In most cases, reserved bits are set to
0; however, user software should not rely on the value of a reserved bit. To provide software
compatibility with future products, the value of a reserved bit should be preserved across a
read-modify-write operation.
yy:xx
The range of register bits inclusive from xx to yy. For example, 31:15 means bits 15 through 31 in
that register.
Register Bit/Field
Types
This value in the register bit diagram indicates whether software running on the controller can
change the value of the bit field.
RC
Software can read this field. The bit or field is cleared by hardware after reading the bit/field.
RO
Software can read this field. Always write the chip reset value.
R/W
Software can read or write this field.
R/WC
Software can read or write this field. Writing to it with any value clears the register.
R/W1C
Software can read or write this field. A write of a 0 to a W1C bit does not affect the bit value in the
register. A write of a 1 clears the value of the bit in the register; the remaining bits remain unchanged.
This register type is primarily used for clearing interrupt status bits where the read operation
provides the interrupt status and the write of the read value clears only the interrupts being reported
at the time the register was read.
R/W1S
Software can read or write a 1 to this field. A write of a 0 to a R/W1S bit does not affect the bit
value in the register.
W1C
Software can write this field. A write of a 0 to a W1C bit does not affect the bit value in the register.
A write of a 1 clears the value of the bit in the register; the remaining bits remain unchanged. A
read of the register returns no meaningful data.
This register is typically used to clear the corresponding bit in an interrupt register.
WO
Only a write by software is valid; a read of the register returns no meaningful data.
Register Bit/Field
Reset Value
This value in the register bit diagram shows the bit/field value after any reset, unless noted.
0
Bit cleared to 0 on chip reset.
1
Bit set to 1 on chip reset.
-
Nondeterministic.
Pin/Signal Notation
[]
Pin alternate function; a pin defaults to the signal without the brackets.
pin
Refers to the physical connection on the package.
signal
Refers to the electrical signal encoding of a pin.

Notation
Meaning
assert a signal
Change the value of the signal from the logically False state to the logically True state. For active
High signals, the asserted signal value is 1 (High); for active Low signals, the asserted signal value
is 0 (Low). The active polarity (High or Low) is defined by the signal name (see SIGNAL and SIGNAL
below).
deassert a signal
Change the value of the signal from the logically True state to the logically False state.
SIGNAL
Signal names are in uppercase and in the Courier font. An overbar on a signal name indicates that
it is active Low. To assert SIGNAL is to drive it Low; to deassert SIGNAL is to drive it High.
SIGNAL
Signal names are in uppercase and in the Courier font. An active High signal has no overbar. To
assert SIGNAL is to drive it High; to deassert SIGNAL is to drive it Low.
Numbers
X
An uppercase X indicates any of several values is allowed, where X can be any legal pattern. For
example, a binary value of 0X00 can be either 0100 or 0000, a hex value of 0xX is 0x0 or 0x1, and
so on.
0x
Hexadecimal numbers have a prefix of 0x. For example, 0x00FF is the hexadecimal number FF.
All other numbers within register tables are assumed to be binary. Within conceptual information,
binary numbers are indicated with a b suffix, for example, 1011b, and decimal numbers are written
without a prefix or suffix.

Architectural Overview
®
Texas Instruments is the industry leader in bringing 32-bit capabilities and the full benefits of ARM
Cortex™-M-based microcontrollers to the broadest reach of the microcontroller market. For current
®
users of 8- and 16-bit MCUs, Stellaris with Cortex-M offers a direct path to the strongest ecosystem
of development tools, software and knowledge in the industry. Designers who migrate to Stellaris
benefit from great tools, small code footprint and outstanding performance. Even more important,
designers can enter the ARM ecosystem with full confidence in a compatible roadmap from $1 to
1 GHz. For users of current 32-bit MCUs, the Stellaris family offers the industry’s first implementation
of Cortex-M3 and the Thumb-2 instruction set. With blazingly-fast responsiveness, Thumb-2
technology combines both 16-bit and 32-bit instructions to deliver the best balance of code density
and performance. Thumb-2 uses 26 percent less memory than pure 32-bit code to reduce system
cost while delivering 25 percent better performance. The Texas Instruments Stellaris family of
microcontrollers—the first ARM Cortex-M3 based controllers— brings high-performance 32-bit
computing to cost-sensitive embedded microcontroller applications.

For applications requiring extreme conservation of power, the LM3S1B21 microcontroller features
a battery-backed Hibernation module to efficiently power down the LM3S1B21 to a low-power state
during extended periods of inactivity. With a power-up/power-down sequencer, a continuous time
counter (RTC), a pair of match registers, an APB interface to the system bus, and dedicated
battery-backed memory, the Hibernation module positions the LM3S1B21 microcontroller perfectly
for battery applications.
In addition, the LM3S1B21 microcontroller offers the advantages of ARM's widely available
development tools, System-on-Chip (SoC) infrastructure IP applications, and a large user community.
Additionally, the microcontroller uses ARM's Thumb®-compatible Thumb-2 instruction set to reduce
memory requirements and, thereby, cost. Finally, the LM3S1B21 microcontroller is code-compatible
to all members of the extensive Stellaris family; providing flexibility to fit precise needs.
Texas Instruments offers a complete solution to get to market quickly, with evaluation and
development boards, white papers and application notes, an easy-to-use peripheral driver library,
and a strong support, sales, and distributor network.

Features
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller component features and general function are discussed in more
detail in the following section.
1.3.1
ARM Cortex-M3 Processor Core
All members of the Stellaris product family, including the LM3S1B21 microcontroller, are designed
around an ARM Cortex-M3 processor core. The ARM Cortex-M3 processor provides the core for a
high-performance, low-cost platform that meets the needs of minimal memory implementation,
reduced pin count, and low power consumption, while delivering outstanding computational
performance and exceptional system response to interrupts.
1.3.1.1
Processor Core (see page 60)
■ 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 architecture optimized for small-footprint embedded applications
■ 80-MHz operation; 100 DMIPS performance
■ Outstanding processing performance combined with fast interrupt handling
January 21, 2012

Texas Instruments-Production Data
Architectural Overview
■ Thumb-2 mixed 16-/32-bit instruction set delivers the high performance expected of a 32-bit
ARM core in a compact memory size usually associated with 8- and 16-bit devices, typically in
the range of a few kilobytes of memory for microcontroller-class applications
– Single-cycle multiply instruction and hardware divide
– Atomic bit manipulation (bit-banding), delivering maximum memory utilization and streamlined
peripheral control
– Unaligned data access, enabling data to be efficiently packed into memory
■ Fast code execution permits slower processor clock or increases sleep mode time
■ Harvard architecture characterized by separate buses for instruction and data
■ Efficient processor core, system and memories
■ Hardware division and fast digital-signal-processing orientated multiply accumulate
■ Saturating arithmetic for signal processing
■ Deterministic, high-performance interrupt handling for time-critical applications
■ Memory protection unit (MPU) to provide a privileged mode for protected operating system
functionality
■ Enhanced system debug with extensive breakpoint and trace capabilities
■ Serial Wire Debug and Serial Wire Trace reduce the number of pins required for debugging and
tracing
■ Migration from the ARM7 processor family for better performance and power efficiency
■ Optimized for single-cycle Flash memory usage
■ Ultra-low power consumption with integrated sleep modes
1.3.1.2
System Timer (SysTick) (see page 102)
ARM Cortex-M3 includes an integrated system timer, SysTick. SysTick provides a simple, 24-bit,
clear-on-write, decrementing, wrap-on-zero counter with a flexible control mechanism. The counter
can be used in several different ways, for example:
■ An RTOS tick timer that fires at a programmable rate (for example, 100 Hz) and invokes a SysTick
routine
■ A high-speed alarm timer using the system clock
■ A variable rate alarm or signal timer—the duration is range-dependent on the reference clock
used and the dynamic range of the counter
■ A simple counter used to measure time to completion and time used
■ An internal clock-source control based on missing/meeting durations.

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
1.3.1.3
Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) (see page 103)
The LM3S1B21 controller includes the ARM Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC). The NVIC
and Cortex-M3 prioritize and handle all exceptions in Handler Mode. The processor state is
automatically stored to the stack on an exception and automatically restored from the stack at the
end of the Interrupt Service Routine (ISR). The interrupt vector is fetched in parallel to the state
saving, enabling efficient interrupt entry. The processor supports tail-chaining, meaning that
back-to-back interrupts can be performed without the overhead of state saving and restoration.
Software can set eight priority levels on 7 exceptions (system handlers) and 37 interrupts.
■ Deterministic, fast interrupt processing: always 12 cycles, or just 6 cycles with tail-chaining
■ External non-maskable interrupt signal (NMI) available for immediate execution of NMI handler
for safety critical applications
■ Dynamically reprioritizable interrupts
■ Exceptional interrupt handling via hardware implementation of required register manipulations
1.3.1.4
System Control Block (SCB) (see page 105)
The SCB provides system implementation information and system control, including configuration,
control, and reporting of system exceptions.
1.3.1.5
Memory Protection Unit (MPU) (see page 105)
The MPU supports the standard ARM7 Protected Memory System Architecture (PMSA) model. The
MPU provides full support for protection regions, overlapping protection regions, access permissions,
and exporting memory attributes to the system.
1.3.2
On-Chip Memory
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller is integrated with the following set of on-chip memory and features:
■ 96 KB single-cycle SRAM
■ 256 KB single-cycle Flash memory up to 50 MHz; a prefetch buffer improves performance above
50 MHz
■ Internal ROM loaded with StellarisWare software:
– Stellaris Peripheral Driver Library
– Stellaris Boot Loader
– Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cryptography tables
– Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) error detection functionality
1.3.2.1
SRAM (see page 302)
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller provides 96 KB of single-cycle on-chip SRAM. The internal SRAM
of the Stellaris devices is located at offset 0x2000.0000 of the device memory map.
Because read-modify-write (RMW) operations are very time consuming, ARM has introduced
bit-banding technology in the Cortex-M3 processor. With a bit-band-enabled processor, certain
regions in the memory map (SRAM and peripheral space) can use address aliases to access
individual bits in a single, atomic operation.
Data can be transferred to and from the SRAM using the Micro Direct Memory Access Controller
(µDMA).

Architectural Overview
1.3.2.2
Flash Memory (see page 304)
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller provides 256 KB of single-cycle on-chip Flash memory (above 50
MHz, the Flash memory can be accessed in a single cycle as long as the code is linear; branches
incur a one-cycle stall). The Flash memory is organized as a set of 1-KB blocks that can be
individually erased. Erasing a block causes the entire contents of the block to be reset to all 1s.
These blocks are paired into a set of 2-KB blocks that can be individually protected. The blocks can
be marked as read-only or execute-only, providing different levels of code protection. Read-only
blocks cannot be erased or programmed, protecting the contents of those blocks from being modified.
Execute-only blocks cannot be erased or programmed, and can only be read by the controller
instruction fetch mechanism, protecting the contents of those blocks from being read by either the
controller or by a debugger.
1.3.2.3
ROM (see page 302)
The LM3S1B21 ROM is preprogrammed with the following software and programs:
■ Stellaris Peripheral Driver Library
■ Stellaris Boot Loader
■ Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cryptography tables
■ Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) error-detection functionality
The Stellaris Peripheral Driver Library is a royalty-free software library for controlling on-chip
peripherals with a boot-loader capability. The library performs both peripheral initialization and
control functions, with a choice of polled or interrupt-driven peripheral support. In addition, the library
is designed to take full advantage of the stellar interrupt performance of the ARM Cortex-M3 core.
No special pragmas or custom assembly code prologue/epilogue functions are required. For
applications that require in-field programmability, the royalty-free Stellaris Boot Loader can act as
an application loader and support in-field firmware updates.
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a publicly defined encryption standard used by the
U.S. Government. AES is a strong encryption method with reasonable performance and size. In
addition, it is fast in both hardware and software, is fairly easy to implement, and requires little
memory. The Texas Instruments encryption package is available with full source code, and is based
on lesser general public license (LGPL) source. An LGPL means that the code can be used within
an application without any copyleft implications for the application (the code does not automatically
become open source). Modifications to the package source, however, must be open source.
CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) is a technique to validate a span of data has the same contents
as when previously checked. This technique can be used to validate correct receipt of messages
(nothing lost or modified in transit), to validate data after decompression, to validate that Flash
memory contents have not been changed, and for other cases where the data needs to be validated.
A CRC is preferred over a simple checksum (e.g. XOR all bits) because it catches changes more
readily.
1.3.3
External Peripheral Interface (see page 452)
The External Peripheral Interface (EPI) provides access to external devices using a parallel path.
Unlike communications peripherals such as SSI, UART, and I2C, the EPI is designed to act like a
bus to external peripherals and memory.
The EPI has the following features:
46
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
■ 8/16/32-bit dedicated parallel bus for external peripherals and memory
■ Memory interface supports contiguous memory access independent of data bus width, thus
enabling code execution directly from SDRAM, SRAM and Flash memory

The EPI supports three primary functional modes: Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory
(SDRAM) mode, Traditional Host-Bus mode, and General-Purpose mode. The EPI module also
provides custom GPIOs; however, unlike regular GPIOs, the EPI module uses a FIFO in the same
way as a communication mechanism and is speed-controlled using clocking.

1.3.4
Serial Communications Peripherals
The LM3S1B21 controller supports both asynchronous and synchronous serial communications
with:
■ Three UARTs with IrDA and ISO 7816 support (one UART with modem flow control and status)
■ Two I2C modules
■ Two Synchronous Serial Interface modules (SSI)
The following sections provide more detail on each of these communications functions.
1.3.4.1
UART (see page 670)
A Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) is an integrated circuit used for RS-232C
serial communications, containing a transmitter (parallel-to-serial converter) and a receiver
(serial-to-parallel converter), each clocked separately.
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller includes three fully programmable 16C550-type UARTs. Although
the functionality is similar to a 16C550 UART, this UART design is not register compatible. The
UART can generate individually masked interrupts from the Rx, Tx, modem flow control, modem
status, and error conditions. The module generates a single combined interrupt when any of the
interrupts are asserted and are unmasked.
The three UARTs have the following features:
■ Programmable baud-rate generator allowing speeds up to 5 Mbps for regular speed (divide by
16) and 10 Mbps for high speed (divide by 8)
■ Separate 16x8 transmit (TX) and receive (RX) FIFOs to reduce CPU interrupt service loading
■ Programmable FIFO length, including 1-byte deep operation providing conventional
double-buffered interface
■ FIFO trigger levels of 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and 7/8
■ Standard asynchronous communication bits for start, stop, and parity

1.3.4.2
I2C (see page 776)
The Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) bus provides bi-directional data transfer through a two-wire design
(a serial data line SDA and a serial clock line SCL). The I2C bus interfaces to external I2C devices
such as serial memory (RAMs and ROMs), networking devices, LCDs, tone generators, and so on.
The I2C bus may also be used for system testing and diagnostic purposes in product development
and manufacture.
Each device on the I2C bus can be designated as either a master or a slave. Each I2C module
supports both sending and receiving data as either a master or a slave and can operate
simultaneously as both a master and a slave. Both the I2C master and slave can generate interrupts.
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller includes two I2C modules with the following features:
■ Devices on the I2C bus can be designated as either a master or a slave
– Supports both transmitting and receiving data as either a master or a slave

Architectural Overview
– Supports simultaneous master and slave operation
■ Four I2C modes

– Master receive
– Slave transmit
– Slave receive
■ Two transmission speeds: Standard (100 Kbps) and Fast (400 Kbps)
■ Master and slave interrupt generation

to an error)
– Slave generates interrupts when data has been transferred or requested by a master or when
a START or STOP condition is detected
■ Master with arbitration and clock synchronization, multimaster support, and 7-bit addressing
mode
1.3.4.3
SSI (see page 734)
Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) is a four-wire bi-directional communications interface that converts
data between parallel and serial. The SSI module performs serial-to-parallel conversion on data
received from a peripheral device, and parallel-to-serial conversion on data transmitted to a peripheral
device. The SSI module can be configured as either a master or slave device. As a slave device,
the SSI module can also be configured to disable its output, which allows a master device to be
coupled with multiple slave devices. The TX and RX paths are buffered with separate internal FIFOs.
The SSI module also includes a programmable bit rate clock divider and prescaler to generate the
output serial clock derived from the SSI module's input clock. Bit rates are generated based on the
input clock and the maximum bit rate is determined by the connected peripheral.
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller includes two SSI modules with the following features:
■ Programmable interface operation for Freescale SPI, MICROWIRE, or Texas Instruments
synchronous serial interfaces
■ Master or slave operation
■ Programmable clock bit rate and prescaler

1.3.5.1
Direct Memory Access (see page 338)
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller includes a Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller, known as
micro-DMA (μDMA). The μDMA controller provides a way to offload data transfer tasks from the
Cortex-M3 processor, allowing for more efficient use of the processor and the available bus
bandwidth. The μDMA controller can perform transfers between memory and peripherals. It has
dedicated channels for each supported on-chip module and can be programmed to automatically
perform transfers between peripherals and memory as the peripheral is ready to transfer more data.

Each GPTM block provides two 16-bit timers/counters that can be configured to operate independently
as timers or event counters, or configured to operate as one 32-bit timer or one 32-bit Real-Time
Clock (RTC). Timers can also be used to trigger analog-to-digital (ADC) conversions.
The General-Purpose Timer Module (GPTM) contains four GPTM blocks with the following functional
options:
■ Operating modes:
– 16- or 32-bit programmable one-shot timer

– Burst request generated on timer interrupt
1.3.5.4
CCP Pins (see page 533)
Capture Compare PWM pins (CCP) can be used by the General-Purpose Timer Module to time/count
external events using the CCP pin as an input. Alternatively, the GPTM can generate a simple PWM
output on the CCP pin.
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller includes eight Capture Compare PWM pins (CCP) that can be
programmed to operate in the following modes:
■ Capture: The GP Timer is incremented/decremented by programmed events on the CCP input.
The GP Timer captures and stores the current timer value when a programmed event occurs.
■ Compare: The GP Timer is incremented/decremented by programmed events on the CCP input.
The GP Timer compares the current value with a stored value and generates an interrupt when
a match occurs.
■ PWM: The GP Timer is incremented/decremented by the system clock. A PWM signal is generated
based on a match between the counter value and a value stored in a match register and is output
on the CCP pin.
1.3.5.5
Hibernation Module (see page 274)
The Hibernation module provides logic to switch power off to the main processor and peripherals
and to wake on external or time-based events. The Hibernation module includes power-sequencing
logic and has the following features:
■ 32-bit real-time counter (RTC)

■ Programmable interrupts for RTC match, external wake, and low battery events
1.3.5.6
Watchdog Timers (see page 572)
A watchdog timer is used to regain control when a system has failed due to a software error or to
the failure of an external device to respond in the expected way. The Stellaris Watchdog Timer can
generate an interrupt or a reset when a time-out value is reached. In addition, the Watchdog Timer
is ARM FiRM-compliant and can be configured to generate an interrupt to the microcontroller on its
first time-out, and to generate a reset signal on its second time-out. Once the Watchdog Timer has
been configured, the lock register can be written to prevent the timer configuration from being
inadvertently altered.
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller has two Watchdog Timer modules: Watchdog Timer 0 uses the
system clock for its timer clock; Watchdog Timer 1 uses the PIOSC as its timer clock. The Stellaris
Watchdog Timer module has the following features:
■ 32-bit down counter with a programmable load register
■ Separate watchdog clock with an enable
■ Programmable interrupt generation logic with interrupt masking
■ Lock register protection from runaway software

port. The GPIO module is FiRM-compliant (compliant to the ARM Foundation IP for Real-Time
Microcontrollers specification) and supports 0-67 programmable input/output pins. The number of
GPIOs available depends on the peripherals being used (see “Signal Tables” on page 829 for the

1.3.6.2
Analog Comparators (see page 814)
An analog comparator is a peripheral that compares two analog voltages and provides a logical
output that signals the comparison result. The LM3S1B21 microcontroller provides two independent
integrated analog comparators that can be configured to drive an output or generate an interrupt or
ADC event.
The comparator can provide its output to a device pin, acting as a replacement for an analog
comparator on the board, or it can be used to signal the application via interrupts or triggers to the
ADC to cause it to start capturing a sample sequence. The interrupt generation and ADC triggering
logic is separate. This means, for example, that an interrupt can be generated on a rising edge and
the ADC triggered on a falling edge.
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller provides two independent integrated analog comparators with the
following functions:

JTAG and ARM Serial Wire Debug (see page 168)
The Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) port is an IEEE standard that defines a Test Access Port and
Boundary Scan Architecture for digital integrated circuits and provides a standardized serial interface
for controlling the associated test logic. The TAP, Instruction Register (IR), and Data Registers (DR)
can be used to test the interconnections of assembled printed circuit boards and obtain manufacturing
information on the components. The JTAG Port also provides a means of accessing and controlling
design-for-test features such as I/O pin observation and control, scan testing, and debugging. Texas
Instruments replaces the ARM SW-DP and JTAG-DP with the ARM Serial Wire JTAG Debug Port
(SWJ-DP) interface. The SWJ-DP interface combines the SWD and JTAG debug ports into one
module providing all the normal JTAG debug and test functionality plus real-time access to system
memory without halting the core or requiring any target resident code. The SWJ-DP interface has
the following features:
■ IEEE 1149.1-1990 compatible Test Access Port (TAP) controller
■ Four-bit Instruction Register (IR) chain for storing JTAG instructions
■ IEEE standard instructions: BYPASS, IDCODE, SAMPLE/PRELOAD, EXTEST and INTEST
■ ARM additional instructions: APACC, DPACC and ABORT
■ Integrated ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD)
– Serial Wire JTAG Debug Port (SWJ-DP)
– Flash Patch and Breakpoint (FPB) unit for implementing breakpoints
– Data Watchpoint and Trace (DWT) unit for implementing watchpoints, trigger resources, and
system profiling
– Instrumentation Trace Macrocell (ITM) for support of printf style debugging
– Trace Port Interface Unit (TPIU) for bridging to a Trace Port Analyzer

This chapter provides information on the Stellaris implementation of the Cortex-M3 processor,
including the programming model, the memory model, the exception model, fault handling, and
power management.
For technical details on the instruction set, see the Cortex™-M3/M4 Instruction Set Technical User's
Manual.
2.1
Block Diagram
The Cortex-M3 processor is built on a high-performance processor core, with a 3-stage pipeline
Harvard architecture, making it ideal for demanding embedded applications. The processor delivers
exceptional power efficiency through an efficient instruction set and extensively optimized design,
providing high-end processing hardware including a range of single-cycle and SIMD multiplication
and multiply-with-accumulate capabilities, saturating arithmetic and dedicated hardware division.
To facilitate the design of cost-sensitive devices, the Cortex-M3 processor implements tightly coupled
system components that reduce processor area while significantly improving interrupt handling and
system debug capabilities. The Cortex-M3 processor implements a version of the Thumb® instruction
set based on Thumb-2 technology, ensuring high code density and reduced program memory
requirements. The Cortex-M3 instruction set provides the exceptional performance expected of a
modern 32-bit architecture, with the high code density of 8-bit and 16-bit microcontrollers.
The Cortex-M3 processor closely integrates a nested interrupt controller (NVIC), to deliver
industry-leading interrupt performance. The Stellaris NVIC includes a non-maskable interrupt (NMI)
and provides eight interrupt priority levels. The tight integration of the processor core and NVIC
provides fast execution of interrupt service routines (ISRs), dramatically reducing interrupt latency.
The hardware stacking of registers and the ability to suspend load-multiple and store-multiple
operations further reduce interrupt latency. Interrupt handlers do not require any assembler stubs
which removes code overhead from the ISRs. Tail-chaining optimization also significantly reduces
the overhead when switching from one ISR to another. To optimize low-power designs, the NVIC
integrates with the sleep modes, including Deep-sleep mode, which enables the entire device to be
rapidly powered down.

The Cortex-M3 processor provides multiple interfaces using AMBA® technology to provide
high-speed, low-latency memory accesses. The core supports unaligned data accesses and
implements atomic bit manipulation that enables faster peripheral controls, system spinlocks, and
thread-safe Boolean data handling.
The Cortex-M3 processor has a memory protection unit (MPU) that provides fine-grain memory
control, enabling applications to implement security privilege levels and separate code, data and
stack on a task-by-task basis.
2.2.2
Integrated Configurable Debug
The Cortex-M3 processor implements a complete hardware debug solution, providing high system
visibility of the processor and memory through either a traditional JTAG port or a 2-pin Serial Wire
Debug (SWD) port that is ideal for microcontrollers and other small package devices. The Stellaris
implementation replaces the ARM SW-DP and JTAG-DP with the ARM CoreSight™-compliant
Serial Wire JTAG Debug Port (SWJ-DP) interface. The SWJ-DP interface combines the SWD and
JTAG debug ports into one module. See the ARM® Debug Interface V5 Architecture Specification
for details on SWJ-DP.
For system trace, the processor integrates an Instrumentation Trace Macrocell (ITM) alongside data
watchpoints and a profiling unit. To enable simple and cost-effective profiling of the system trace
events, a Serial Wire Viewer (SWV) can export a stream of software-generated messages, data
trace, and profiling information through a single pin.

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
The Flash Patch and Breakpoint Unit (FPB) provides up to eight hardware breakpoint comparators
that debuggers can use. The comparators in the FPB also provide remap functions of up to eight
words in the program code in the CODE memory region. This enables applications stored in a
read-only area of Flash memory to be patched in another area of on-chip SRAM or Flash memory.
If a patch is required, the application programs the FPB to remap a number of addresses. When
those addresses are accessed, the accesses are redirected to a remap table specified in the FPB
configuration.
For more information on the Cortex-M3 debug capabilities, see theARM® Debug Interface V5
Architecture Specification.

Trace Port Interface Unit (TPIU)
The TPIU acts as a bridge between the Cortex-M3 trace data from the ITM, and an off-chip Trace

The Cortex-M3 includes the following system components:
■ SysTick
A 24-bit count-down timer that can be used as a Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) tick timer
or as a simple counter (see “System Timer (SysTick)” on page 102).
■ Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC)

Texas Instruments-Production Data
The Cortex-M3 Processor
The programming model interface to the processor. The SCB provides system implementation
information and system control, including configuration, control, and reporting of system exceptions
(see “System Control Block (SCB)” on page 105).
■ Memory Protection Unit (MPU)
Improves system reliability by defining the memory attributes for different memory regions. The
MPU provides up to eight different regions and an optional predefined background region (see
“Memory Protection Unit (MPU)” on page 105).
2.3
Programming Model
This section describes the Cortex-M3 programming model. In addition to the individual core register
descriptions, information about the processor modes and privilege levels for software execution and
stacks is included.
2.3.1
Processor Mode and Privilege Levels for Software Execution
The Cortex-M3 has two modes of operation:
■ Thread mode
Used to execute application software. The processor enters Thread mode when it comes out of
reset.
■ Handler mode
Used to handle exceptions. When the processor has finished exception processing, it returns to
Thread mode.
In addition, the Cortex-M3 has two privilege levels:
■ Unprivileged
In this mode, software has the following restrictions:
– Limited access to the MSR and MRS instructions and no use of the CPS instruction
– No access to the system timer, NVIC, or system control block
– Possibly restricted access to memory or peripherals
■ Privileged
In this mode, software can use all the instructions and has access to all resources.
In Thread mode, the CONTROL register (see page 78) controls whether software execution is
privileged or unprivileged. In Handler mode, software execution is always privileged.
Only privileged software can write to the CONTROL register to change the privilege level for software
execution in Thread mode. Unprivileged software can use the SVC instruction to make a supervisor
call to transfer control to privileged software.
2.3.2
Stacks
The processor uses a full descending stack, meaning that the stack pointer indicates the last stacked
item on the memory. When the processor pushes a new item onto the stack, it decrements the stack
pointer and then writes the item to the new memory location. The processor implements two stacks:
64
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
the main stack and the process stack, with a pointer for each held in independent registers (see the
SP register on page 68).
In Thread mode, the CONTROL register (see page 78) controls whether the processor uses the
main stack or the process stack. In Handler mode, the processor always uses the main stack. The
options for processor operations are shown in Table 2-1 on page 65.

Register 17: Program Status Register (PSR)
Note:
This register is also referred to as xPSR.
The Program Status Register (PSR) has three functions, and the register bits are assigned to the
different functions:
■ Application Program Status Register (APSR), bits 31:27,
■ Execution Program Status Register (EPSR), bits 26:24, 15:10
■ Interrupt Program Status Register (IPSR), bits 6:0
The PSR, IPSR, and EPSR registers can only be accessed in privileged mode; the APSR register
can be accessed in either privileged or unprivileged mode.
APSR contains the current state of the condition flags from previous instruction executions.
EPSR contains the Thumb state bit and the execution state bits for the If-Then (IT) instruction or
the Interruptible-Continuable Instruction (ICI) field for an interrupted load multiple or store multiple
instruction. Attempts to read the EPSR directly through application software using the MSR instruction
always return zero. Attempts to write the EPSR using the MSR instruction in application software
are always ignored. Fault handlers can examine the EPSR value in the stacked PSR to determine
the operation that faulted (see “Exception Entry and Return” on page 93).
IPSR contains the exception type number of the current Interrupt Service Routine (ISR).
These registers can be accessed individually or as a combination of any two or all three registers,
using the register name as an argument to the MSR or MRS instructions. For example, all of the
registers can be read using PSR with the MRS instruction, or APSR only can be written to using
APSR with the MSR instruction. page 71 shows the possible register combinations for the PSR. See
the MRS and MSR instruction descriptions in the Cortex™-M3/M4 Instruction Set Technical User's
Manual for more information about how to access the program status registers.

EPSR ICI / IT status
These bits, along with bits 26:25, contain the Interruptible-Continuable
Instruction (ICI) field for an interrupted load multiple or store multiple
instruction or the execution state bits of the IT instruction.
When an interrupt occurs during the execution of an LDM, STM, PUSH
or POP instruction, the processor stops the load multiple or store multiple
instruction operation temporarily and stores the next register operand
in the multiple operation to bits 15:12. After servicing the interrupt, the
processor returns to the register pointed to by bits 15:12 and resumes
execution of the multiple load or store instruction. When EPSR holds
the ICI execution state, bits 11:10 are zero.
The If-Then block contains up to four instructions following a 16-bit IT
instruction. Each instruction in the block is conditional. The conditions
for the instructions are either all the same, or some can be the inverse
of others. See the Cortex™-M3/M4 Instruction Set Technical User's

The Cortex-M3 Processor
Register 21: Control Register (CONTROL)
The CONTROL register controls the stack used and the privilege level for software execution when
the processor is in Thread mode. This register is only accessible in privileged mode.
Handler mode always uses MSP, so the processor ignores explicit writes to the ASP bit of the
CONTROL register when in Handler mode. The exception entry and return mechanisms automatically
update the CONTROL register based on the EXC_RETURN value (see Table 2-10 on page 95).
In an OS environment, threads running in Thread mode should use the process stack and the kernel
and exception handlers should use the main stack. By default, Thread mode uses MSP. To switch
the stack pointer used in Thread mode to PSP, either use the MSR instruction to set the ASP bit, as
detailed in the Cortex™-M3/M4 Instruction Set Technical User's Manual, or perform an exception
return to Thread mode with the appropriate EXC_RETURN value, as shown in Table 2-10 on page 95.
Note:
When changing the stack pointer, software must use an ISB instruction immediately after
the MSR instruction, ensuring that instructions after the ISB execute use the new stack
pointer. See the Cortex™-M3/M4 Instruction Set Technical User's Manual.

Exceptions and Interrupts
The Cortex-M3 processor supports interrupts and system exceptions. The processor and the Nested
Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) prioritize and handle all exceptions. An exception changes the
normal flow of software control. The processor uses Handler mode to handle all exceptions except
for reset. See “Exception Entry and Return” on page 93 for more information.
The NVIC registers control interrupt handling. See “Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller
(NVIC)” on page 103 for more information.
2.3.6
Data Types
The Cortex-M3 supports 32-bit words, 16-bit halfwords, and 8-bit bytes. The processor also supports
64-bit data transfer instructions. All instruction and data memory accesses are little endian. See
“Memory Regions, Types and Attributes” on page 81 for more information.
2.4
Memory Model
This section describes the processor memory map, the behavior of memory accesses, and the
bit-banding features. The processor has a fixed memory map that provides up to 4 GB of addressable
memory.
The memory map for the LM3S1B21 controller is provided in Table 2-4 on page 79. In this manual,
register addresses are given as a hexadecimal increment, relative to the module’s base address
as shown in the memory map.
The regions for SRAM and peripherals include bit-band regions. Bit-banding provides atomic
operations to bit data (see “Bit-Banding” on page 84).
The processor reserves regions of the Private peripheral bus (PPB) address range for core peripheral
registers (see “Cortex-M3 Peripherals” on page 102).
Note:
Within the memory map, all reserved space returns a bus fault when read or written.

2.4.1
Memory Regions, Types and Attributes
The memory map and the programming of the MPU split the memory map into regions. Each region
has a defined memory type, and some regions have additional memory attributes. The memory
type and attributes determine the behavior of accesses to the region.
The memory types are:
■ Normal: The processor can re-order transactions for efficiency and perform speculative reads.
■ Device: The processor preserves transaction order relative to other transactions to Device or
Strongly Ordered memory.
■ Strongly Ordered: The processor preserves transaction order relative to all other transactions.
The different ordering requirements for Device and Strongly Ordered memory mean that the memory
system can buffer a write to Device memory but must not buffer a write to Strongly Ordered memory.
An additional memory attribute is Execute Never (XN), which means the processor prevents
instruction accesses. A fault exception is generated only on execution of an instruction executed
from an XN region.
2.4.2
Memory System Ordering of Memory Accesses
For most memory accesses caused by explicit memory access instructions, the memory system
does not guarantee that the order in which the accesses complete matches the program order of
the instructions, providing the order does not affect the behavior of the instruction sequence. Normally,
if correct program execution depends on two memory accesses completing in program order,
software must insert a memory barrier instruction between the memory access instructions (see
“Software Ordering of Memory Accesses” on page 82).
However, the memory system does guarantee ordering of accesses to Device and Strongly Ordered
memory. For two memory access instructions A1 and A2, if both A1 and A2 are accesses to either

Device or Strongly Ordered memory, and if A1 occurs before A2 in program order, A1 is always
observed before A2.
2.4.3
Behavior of Memory Accesses
Table 2-5 on page 82 shows the behavior of accesses to each region in the memory map. See
“Memory Regions, Types and Attributes” on page 81 for more information on memory types and
the XN attribute. Stellaris devices may have reserved memory areas within the address ranges

The Code, SRAM, and external RAM regions can hold programs. However, it is recommended that
programs always use the Code region because the Cortex-M3 has separate buses that can perform
instruction fetches and data accesses simultaneously.
The MPU can override the default memory access behavior described in this section. For more
information, see “Memory Protection Unit (MPU)” on page 105.
The Cortex-M3 prefetches instructions ahead of execution and speculatively prefetches from branch
target addresses.
2.4.4
Software Ordering of Memory Accesses
The order of instructions in the program flow does not always guarantee the order of the
corresponding memory transactions for the following reasons:
■ The processor can reorder some memory accesses to improve efficiency, providing this does
not affect the behavior of the instruction sequence.
■ The processor has multiple bus interfaces.
■ Memory or devices in the memory map have different wait states.
■ Some memory accesses are buffered or speculative.
“Memory System Ordering of Memory Accesses” on page 81 describes the cases where the memory
system guarantees the order of memory accesses. Otherwise, if the order of memory accesses is
82

critical, software must include memory barrier instructions to force that ordering. The Cortex-M3
has the following memory barrier instructions:
■ The Data Memory Barrier (DMB) instruction ensures that outstanding memory transactions
complete before subsequent memory transactions.
■ The Data Synchronization Barrier (DSB) instruction ensures that outstanding memory transactions
complete before subsequent instructions execute.
■ The Instruction Synchronization Barrier (ISB) instruction ensures that the effect of all completed
memory transactions is recognizable by subsequent instructions.
Memory barrier instructions can be used in the following situations:
■ MPU programming
– If the MPU settings are changed and the change must be effective on the very next instruction,
use a DSB instruction to ensure the effect of the MPU takes place immediately at the end of
context switching.
– Use an ISB instruction to ensure the new MPU setting takes effect immediately after
programming the MPU region or regions, if the MPU configuration code was accessed using
a branch or call. If the MPU configuration code is entered using exception mechanisms, then
an ISB instruction is not required.
■ Vector table
If the program changes an entry in the vector table and then enables the corresponding exception,
use a DMB instruction between the operations. The DMB instruction ensures that if the exception
is taken immediately after being enabled, the processor uses the new exception vector.
■ Self-modifying code
If a program contains self-modifying code, use an ISB instruction immediately after the code
modification in the program. The ISB instruction ensures subsequent instruction execution uses
the updated program.
■ Memory map switching
If the system contains a memory map switching mechanism, use a DSB instruction after switching
the memory map in the program. The DSB instruction ensures subsequent instruction execution
uses the updated memory map.
■ Dynamic exception priority change
When an exception priority has to change when the exception is pending or active, use DSB
instructions after the change. The change then takes effect on completion of the DSB instruction.
Memory accesses to Strongly Ordered memory, such as the System Control Block, do not require
the use of DMB instructions.
For more information on the memory barrier instructions, see the Cortex™-M3/M4 Instruction Set
Technical User's Manual.

Bit-Banding
A bit-band region maps each word in a bit-band alias region to a single bit in the bit-band region.
The bit-band regions occupy the lowest 1 MB of the SRAM and peripheral memory regions. Accesses
to the 32-MB SRAM alias region map to the 1-MB SRAM bit-band region, as shown in Table
2-6 on page 84. Accesses to the 32-MB peripheral alias region map to the 1-MB peripheral bit-band
region, as shown in Table 2-7 on page 84. For the specific address range of the bit-band regions,
see Table 2-4 on page 79.
Note:
A word access to the SRAM or the peripheral bit-band alias region maps to a single bit in
the SRAM or peripheral bit-band region.
A word access to a bit band address results in a word access to the underlying memory,
and similarly for halfword and byte accesses. This allows bit band accesses to match the
access requirements of the underlying peripheral.

A write operation is performed as read-modify-write. Instruction

The following formula shows how the alias region maps onto the bit-band region:
bit_word_offset = (byte_offset x 32) + (bit_number x 4)
bit_word_addr = bit_band_base + bit_word_offset
where:
bit_word_offset
The position of the target bit in the bit-band memory region.
bit_word_addr
The address of the word in the alias memory region that maps to the targeted bit.
bit_band_base
The starting address of the alias region.

bit_number

Figure 2-4 on page 85 shows examples of bit-band mapping between the SRAM bit-band alias
region and the SRAM bit-band region:
■ The alias word at 0x23FF.FFE0 maps to bit 0 of the bit-band byte at 0x200F.FFFF:
0x23FF.FFE0 = 0x2200.0000 + (0x000F.FFFF*32) + (0*4)
■ The alias word at 0x23FF.FFFC maps to bit 7 of the bit-band byte at 0x200F.FFFF:
0x23FF.FFFC = 0x2200.0000 + (0x000F.FFFF*32) + (7*4)
■ The alias word at 0x2200.0000 maps to bit 0 of the bit-band byte at 0x2000.0000:
0x2200.0000 = 0x2200.0000 + (0*32) + (0*4)
■ The alias word at 0x2200.001C maps to bit 7 of the bit-band byte at 0x2000.0000:
0x2200.001C = 0x2200.0000+ (0*32) + (7*4)

Directly Accessing an Alias Region
Writing to a word in the alias region updates a single bit in the bit-band region.
Bit 0 of the value written to a word in the alias region determines the value written to the targeted
bit in the bit-band region. Writing a value with bit 0 set writes a 1 to the bit-band bit, and writing a
value with bit 0 clear writes a 0 to the bit-band bit.
January 21, 2012
85
Texas Instruments-Production Data
The Cortex-M3 Processor
Bits 31:1 of the alias word have no effect on the bit-band bit. Writing 0x01 has the same effect as
writing 0xFF. Writing 0x00 has the same effect as writing 0x0E.
When reading a word in the alias region, 0x0000.0000 indicates that the targeted bit in the bit-band
region is clear and 0x0000.0001 indicates that the targeted bit in the bit-band region is set.
2.4.5.2
Directly Accessing a Bit-Band Region
“Behavior of Memory Accesses” on page 82 describes the behavior of direct byte, halfword, or word
accesses to the bit-band regions.
2.4.6
Data Storage
The processor views memory as a linear collection of bytes numbered in ascending order from zero.
For example, bytes 0-3 hold the first stored word, and bytes 4-7 hold the second stored word. Data
is stored in little-endian format, with the least-significant byte (lsbyte) of a word stored at the
lowest-numbered byte, and the most-significant byte (msbyte) stored at the highest-numbered byte.
Figure 2-5 on page 86 illustrates how data is stored.

Synchronization Primitives
The Cortex-M3 instruction set includes pairs of synchronization primitives which provide a
non-blocking mechanism that a thread or process can use to obtain exclusive access to a memory
location. Software can use these primitives to perform a guaranteed read-modify-write memory
update sequence or for a semaphore mechanism.
A pair of synchronization primitives consists of:
■ A Load-Exclusive instruction, which is used to read the value of a memory location and requests
exclusive access to that location.
■ A Store-Exclusive instruction, which is used to attempt to write to the same memory location and
returns a status bit to a register. If this status bit is clear, it indicates that the thread or process
gained exclusive access to the memory and the write succeeds; if this status bit is set, it indicates
that the thread or process did not gain exclusive access to the memory and no write was
performed.
The pairs of Load-Exclusive and Store-Exclusive instructions are:
■ The word instructions LDREX and STREX
■ The halfword instructions LDREXH and STREXH
86
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
■ The byte instructions LDREXB and STREXB
Software must use a Load-Exclusive instruction with the corresponding Store-Exclusive instruction.
To perform an exclusive read-modify-write of a memory location, software must:
1. Use a Load-Exclusive instruction to read the value of the location.
2. Modify the value, as required.
3. Use a Store-Exclusive instruction to attempt to write the new value back to the memory location.
4. Test the returned status bit.
If the status bit is clear, the read-modify-write completed successfully. If the status bit is set, no
write was performed, which indicates that the value returned at step 1 might be out of date. The
software must retry the entire read-modify-write sequence.
Software can use the synchronization primitives to implement a semaphore as follows:
1. Use a Load-Exclusive instruction to read from the semaphore address to check whether the
semaphore is free.
2. If the semaphore is free, use a Store-Exclusive to write the claim value to the semaphore
address.
3. If the returned status bit from step 2 indicates that the Store-Exclusive succeeded, then the
software has claimed the semaphore. However, if the Store-Exclusive failed, another process
might have claimed the semaphore after the software performed step 1.
The Cortex-M3 includes an exclusive access monitor that tags the fact that the processor has
executed a Load-Exclusive instruction. The processor removes its exclusive access tag if:
■ It executes a CLREX instruction.
■ It executes a Store-Exclusive instruction, regardless of whether the write succeeds.
■ An exception occurs, which means the processor can resolve semaphore conflicts between
different threads.
For more information about the synchronization primitive instructions, see the Cortex™-M3/M4
Instruction Set Technical User's Manual.
2.5
Exception Model
The ARM Cortex-M3 processor and the Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) prioritize and
handle all exceptions in Handler Mode. The processor state is automatically stored to the stack on
an exception and automatically restored from the stack at the end of the Interrupt Service Routine
(ISR). The vector is fetched in parallel to the state saving, enabling efficient interrupt entry. The
processor supports tail-chaining, which enables back-to-back interrupts to be performed without the
overhead of state saving and restoration.
Table 2-8 on page 90 lists all exception types. Software can set eight priority levels on seven of
these exceptions (system handlers) as well as on 37 interrupts (listed in Table 2-9 on page 90).
Priorities on the system handlers are set with the NVIC System Handler Priority n (SYSPRIn)
registers. Interrupts are enabled through the NVIC Interrupt Set Enable n (ENn) register and
January 21, 2012
87
Texas Instruments-Production Data
The Cortex-M3 Processor
prioritized with the NVIC Interrupt Priority n (PRIn) registers. Priorities can be grouped by splitting
priority levels into preemption priorities and subpriorities. All the interrupt registers are described in
“Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC)” on page 103.
Internally, the highest user-programmable priority (0) is treated as fourth priority, after a Reset,
Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI), and a Hard Fault, in that order. Note that 0 is the default priority for
all the programmable priorities.
Important: After a write to clear an interrupt source, it may take several processor cycles for the
NVIC to see the interrupt source de-assert. Thus if the interrupt clear is done as the
last action in an interrupt handler, it is possible for the interrupt handler to complete
while the NVIC sees the interrupt as still asserted, causing the interrupt handler to be
re-entered errantly. This situation can be avoided by either clearing the interrupt source
at the beginning of the interrupt handler or by performing a read or write after the write
to clear the interrupt source (and flush the write buffer).
See “Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC)” on page 103 for more information on exceptions
and interrupts.
2.5.1
Exception States
Each exception is in one of the following states:
■ Inactive. The exception is not active and not pending.
■ Pending. The exception is waiting to be serviced by the processor. An interrupt request from a
peripheral or from software can change the state of the corresponding interrupt to pending.
■ Active. An exception that is being serviced by the processor but has not completed.
Note:
An exception handler can interrupt the execution of another exception handler. In this
case, both exceptions are in the active state.
■ Active and Pending. The exception is being serviced by the processor, and there is a pending
exception from the same source.
2.5.2
Exception Types
The exception types are:
■ Reset. Reset is invoked on power up or a warm reset. The exception model treats reset as a
special form of exception. When reset is asserted, the operation of the processor stops, potentially
at any point in an instruction. When reset is deasserted, execution restarts from the address
provided by the reset entry in the vector table. Execution restarts as privileged execution in
Thread mode.
■ NMI. A non-maskable Interrupt (NMI) can be signaled using the NMI signal or triggered by
software using the Interrupt Control and State (INTCTRL) register. This exception has the
highest priority other than reset. NMI is permanently enabled and has a fixed priority of -2. NMIs
cannot be masked or prevented from activation by any other exception or preempted by any
exception other than reset.
■ Hard Fault. A hard fault is an exception that occurs because of an error during exception
processing, or because an exception cannot be managed by any other exception mechanism.
Hard faults have a fixed priority of -1, meaning they have higher priority than any exception with
configurable priority.
88
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
■ Memory Management Fault. A memory management fault is an exception that occurs because
of a memory protection related fault, including access violation and no match. The MPU or the
fixed memory protection constraints determine this fault, for both instruction and data memory
transactions. This fault is used to abort instruction accesses to Execute Never (XN) memory
regions, even if the MPU is disabled.
■ Bus Fault. A bus fault is an exception that occurs because of a memory-related fault for an
instruction or data memory transaction such as a prefetch fault or a memory access fault. This
fault can be enabled or disabled.
■ Usage Fault. A usage fault is an exception that occurs because of a fault related to instruction
execution, such as:
– An undefined instruction
– An illegal unaligned access
– Invalid state on instruction execution
– An error on exception return
An unaligned address on a word or halfword memory access or division by zero can cause a
usage fault when the core is properly configured.
■ SVCall. A supervisor call (SVC) is an exception that is triggered by the SVC instruction. In an
OS environment, applications can use SVC instructions to access OS kernel functions and device
drivers.
■ Debug Monitor. This exception is caused by the debug monitor (when not halting). This exception
is only active when enabled. This exception does not activate if it is a lower priority than the
current activation.
■ PendSV. PendSV is a pendable, interrupt-driven request for system-level service. In an OS
environment, use PendSV for context switching when no other exception is active. PendSV is
triggered using the Interrupt Control and State (INTCTRL) register.
■ SysTick. A SysTick exception is an exception that the system timer generates when it reaches
zero when it is enabled to generate an interrupt. Software can also generate a SysTick exception
using the Interrupt Control and State (INTCTRL) register. In an OS environment, the processor
can use this exception as system tick.
■ Interrupt (IRQ). An interrupt, or IRQ, is an exception signaled by a peripheral or generated by
a software request and fed through the NVIC (prioritized). All interrupts are asynchronous to
instruction execution. In the system, peripherals use interrupts to communicate with the processor.
Table 2-9 on page 90 lists the interrupts on the LM3S1B21 controller.
For an asynchronous exception, other than reset, the processor can execute another instruction
between when the exception is triggered and when the processor enters the exception handler.
Privileged software can disable the exceptions that Table 2-8 on page 90 shows as having
configurable priority (see the SYSHNDCTRL register on page 146 and the DIS0 register on page 119).
For more information about hard faults, memory management faults, bus faults, and usage faults,
see “Fault Handling” on page 95.

Exception Handlers
The processor handles exceptions using:
■ Interrupt Service Routines (ISRs). Interrupts (IRQx) are the exceptions handled by ISRs.
■ Fault Handlers. Hard fault, memory management fault, usage fault, and bus fault are fault
exceptions handled by the fault handlers.
■ System Handlers. NMI, PendSV, SVCall, SysTick, and the fault exceptions are all system
exceptions that are handled by system handlers.
2.5.4
Vector Table
The vector table contains the reset value of the stack pointer and the start addresses, also called
exception vectors, for all exception handlers. The vector table is constructed using the vector address
or offset shown in Table 2-8 on page 90. Figure 2-6 on page 92 shows the order of the exception

On system reset, the vector table is fixed at address 0x0000.0000. Privileged software can write to
the Vector Table Offset (VTABLE) register to relocate the vector table start address to a different
memory location, in the range 0x0000.0200 to 0x3FFF.FE00 (see “Vector Table” on page 91). Note
that when configuring the VTABLE register, the offset must be aligned on a 512-byte boundary.
2.5.5
Exception Priorities
As Table 2-8 on page 90 shows, all exceptions have an associated priority, with a lower priority
value indicating a higher priority and configurable priorities for all exceptions except Reset, Hard
fault, and NMI. If software does not configure any priorities, then all exceptions with a configurable
priority have a priority of 0. For information about configuring exception priorities, see page 143 and
page 127.
Note:
Configurable priority values for the Stellaris implementation are in the range 0-7. This means
that the Reset, Hard fault, and NMI exceptions, with fixed negative priority values, always
have higher priority than any other exception.
92
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
For example, assigning a higher priority value to IRQ[0] and a lower priority value to IRQ[1] means
that IRQ[1] has higher priority than IRQ[0]. If both IRQ[1] and IRQ[0] are asserted, IRQ[1] is processed
before IRQ[0].
If multiple pending exceptions have the same priority, the pending exception with the lowest exception
number takes precedence. For example, if both IRQ[0] and IRQ[1] are pending and have the same
priority, then IRQ[0] is processed before IRQ[1].
When the processor is executing an exception handler, the exception handler is preempted if a
higher priority exception occurs. If an exception occurs with the same priority as the exception being
handled, the handler is not preempted, irrespective of the exception number. However, the status
of the new interrupt changes to pending.
2.5.6
Interrupt Priority Grouping
To increase priority control in systems with interrupts, the NVIC supports priority grouping. This
grouping divides each interrupt priority register entry into two fields:
■ An upper field that defines the group priority
■ A lower field that defines a subpriority within the group
Only the group priority determines preemption of interrupt exceptions. When the processor is
executing an interrupt exception handler, another interrupt with the same group priority as the
interrupt being handled does not preempt the handler.
If multiple pending interrupts have the same group priority, the subpriority field determines the order
in which they are processed. If multiple pending interrupts have the same group priority and
subpriority, the interrupt with the lowest IRQ number is processed first.
For information about splitting the interrupt priority fields into group priority and subpriority, see
page 137.
2.5.7
Exception Entry and Return
Descriptions of exception handling use the following terms:
■ Preemption. When the processor is executing an exception handler, an exception can preempt
the exception handler if its priority is higher than the priority of the exception being handled. See
“Interrupt Priority Grouping” on page 93 for more information about preemption by an interrupt.
When one exception preempts another, the exceptions are called nested exceptions. See
“Exception Entry” on page 94 more information.
■ Return. Return occurs when the exception handler is completed, and there is no pending
exception with sufficient priority to be serviced and the completed exception handler was not
handling a late-arriving exception. The processor pops the stack and restores the processor
state to the state it had before the interrupt occurred. See “Exception Return” on page 95 for
more information.
■ Tail-Chaining. This mechanism speeds up exception servicing. On completion of an exception
handler, if there is a pending exception that meets the requirements for exception entry, the
stack pop is skipped and control transfers to the new exception handler.
■ Late-Arriving. This mechanism speeds up preemption. If a higher priority exception occurs
during state saving for a previous exception, the processor switches to handle the higher priority
exception and initiates the vector fetch for that exception. State saving is not affected by late

The Cortex-M3 Processor
arrival because the state saved is the same for both exceptions. Therefore, the state saving
continues uninterrupted. The processor can accept a late arriving exception until the first instruction
of the exception handler of the original exception enters the execute stage of the processor. On
return from the exception handler of the late-arriving exception, the normal tail-chaining rules
apply.
2.5.7.1
Exception Entry
Exception entry occurs when there is a pending exception with sufficient priority and either the
processor is in Thread mode or the new exception is of higher priority than the exception being
handled, in which case the new exception preempts the original exception.
When one exception preempts another, the exceptions are nested.
Sufficient priority means the exception has more priority than any limits set by the mask registers
(see PRIMASK on page 75, FAULTMASK on page 76, and BASEPRI on page 77). An exception
with less priority than this is pending but is not handled by the processor.
When the processor takes an exception, unless the exception is a tail-chained or a late-arriving
exception, the processor pushes information onto the current stack. This operation is referred to as
stacking and the structure of eight data words is referred to as stack frame.

{aligner}
xPSR
PC
LR
R12
R3
R2
R1
R0
Pre-IRQ top of stack
IRQ top of stack
Immediately after stacking, the stack pointer indicates the lowest address in the stack frame.
The stack frame includes the return address, which is the address of the next instruction in the
interrupted program. This value is restored to the PC at exception return so that the interrupted
program resumes.
In parallel to the stacking operation, the processor performs a vector fetch that reads the exception
handler start address from the vector table. When stacking is complete, the processor starts executing
the exception handler. At the same time, the processor writes an EXC_RETURN value to the LR,
indicating which stack pointer corresponds to the stack frame and what operation mode the processor
was in before the entry occurred.
If no higher-priority exception occurs during exception entry, the processor starts executing the
exception handler and automatically changes the status of the corresponding pending interrupt to
active.
If another higher-priority exception occurs during exception entry, known as late arrival, the processor
starts executing the exception handler for this exception and does not change the pending status
of the earlier exception.

2.5.7.2
Exception Return
Exception return occurs when the processor is in Handler mode and executes one of the following
instructions to load the EXC_RETURN value into the PC:
■ An LDM or POP instruction that loads the PC
■ A BX instruction using any register
■ An LDR instruction with the PC as the destination
EXC_RETURN is the value loaded into the LR on exception entry. The exception mechanism relies
on this value to detect when the processor has completed an exception handler. The lowest four
bits of this value provide information on the return stack and processor mode. Table 2-10 on page 95
shows the EXC_RETURN values with a description of the exception return behavior.
EXC_RETURN bits 31:4 are all set. When this value is loaded into the PC, it indicates to the processor
that the exception is complete, and the processor initiates the appropriate exception return sequence.

Fault Handling
Faults are a subset of the exceptions (see “Exception Model” on page 87). The following conditions
generate a fault:
■ A bus error on an instruction fetch or vector table load or a data access.
■ An internally detected error such as an undefined instruction or an attempt to change state with
a BX instruction.
■ Attempting to execute an instruction from a memory region marked as Non-Executable (XN).
■ An MPU fault because of a privilege violation or an attempt to access an unmanaged region.

2.6.2
Fault Escalation and Hard Faults
All fault exceptions except for hard fault have configurable exception priority (see SYSPRI1 on
page 143). Software can disable execution of the handlers for these faults (see SYSHNDCTRL on
page 146).
Usually, the exception priority, together with the values of the exception mask registers, determines
whether the processor enters the fault handler, and whether a fault handler can preempt another
fault handler as described in “Exception Model” on page 87.
In some situations, a fault with configurable priority is treated as a hard fault. This process is called
priority escalation, and the fault is described as escalated to hard fault. Escalation to hard fault
occurs when:
■ A fault handler causes the same kind of fault as the one it is servicing. This escalation to hard
fault occurs because a fault handler cannot preempt itself because it must have the same priority
as the current priority level.
96
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
■ A fault handler causes a fault with the same or lower priority as the fault it is servicing. This
situation happens because the handler for the new fault cannot preempt the currently executing
fault handler.
■ An exception handler causes a fault for which the priority is the same as or lower than the currently
executing exception.
■ A fault occurs and the handler for that fault is not enabled.
If a bus fault occurs during a stack push when entering a bus fault handler, the bus fault does not
escalate to a hard fault. Thus if a corrupted stack causes a fault, the fault handler executes even
though the stack push for the handler failed. The fault handler operates but the stack contents are
corrupted.
Note:
2.6.3
Only Reset and NMI can preempt the fixed priority hard fault. A hard fault can preempt any
exception other than Reset, NMI, or another hard fault.
Fault Status Registers and Fault Address Registers
The fault status registers indicate the cause of a fault. For bus faults and memory management
faults, the fault address register indicates the address accessed by the operation that caused the
fault, as shown in Table 2-12 on page 97.

Lockup
The processor enters a lockup state if a hard fault occurs when executing the NMI or hard fault
handlers. When the processor is in the lockup state, it does not execute any instructions. The
processor remains in lockup state until it is reset, an NMI occurs, or it is halted by a debugger.
Note:
2.7
If the lockup state occurs from the NMI handler, a subsequent NMI does not cause the
processor to leave the lockup state.
Power Management
The Cortex-M3 processor sleep modes reduce power consumption:
■ Sleep mode stops the processor clock.
■ Deep-sleep mode stops the system clock and switches off the PLL and Flash memory.
The SLEEPDEEP bit of the System Control (SYSCTRL) register selects which sleep mode is used
(see page 139). For more information about the behavior of the sleep modes, see “System
Control” on page 194.
January 21, 2012
97
Texas Instruments-Production Data
The Cortex-M3 Processor
This section describes the mechanisms for entering sleep mode and the conditions for waking up
from sleep mode, both of which apply to Sleep mode and Deep-sleep mode.
2.7.1
Entering Sleep Modes
This section describes the mechanisms software can use to put the processor into one of the sleep
modes.
The system can generate spurious wake-up events, for example a debug operation wakes up the
processor. Therefore, software must be able to put the processor back into sleep mode after such
an event. A program might have an idle loop to put the processor back to sleep mode.
2.7.1.1
Wait for Interrupt
The wait for interrupt instruction, WFI, causes immediate entry to sleep mode unless the wake-up
condition is true (see “Wake Up from WFI or Sleep-on-Exit” on page 98). When the processor
executes a WFI instruction, it stops executing instructions and enters sleep mode. See the
Cortex™-M3/M4 Instruction Set Technical User's Manual for more information.
2.7.1.2
Wait for Event
The wait for event instruction, WFE, causes entry to sleep mode conditional on the value of a one-bit
event register. When the processor executes a WFE instruction, it checks the event register. If the
register is 0, the processor stops executing instructions and enters sleep mode. If the register is 1,
the processor clears the register and continues executing instructions without entering sleep mode.
If the event register is 1, the processor must not enter sleep mode on execution of a WFE instruction.
Typically, this situation occurs if an SEV instruction has been executed. Software cannot access
this register directly.
See the Cortex™-M3/M4 Instruction Set Technical User's Manual for more information.
2.7.1.3
Sleep-on-Exit
If the SLEEPEXIT bit of the SYSCTRL register is set, when the processor completes the execution
of all exception handlers, it returns to Thread mode and immediately enters sleep mode. This
mechanism can be used in applications that only require the processor to run when an exception
occurs.
2.7.2
Wake Up from Sleep Mode
The conditions for the processor to wake up depend on the mechanism that cause it to enter sleep
mode.
2.7.2.1
Wake Up from WFI or Sleep-on-Exit
Normally, the processor wakes up only when the NVIC detects an exception with sufficient priority
to cause exception entry. Some embedded systems might have to execute system restore tasks
after the processor wakes up and before executing an interrupt handler. Entry to the interrupt handler
can be delayed by setting the PRIMASK bit and clearing the FAULTMASK bit. If an interrupt arrives
that is enabled and has a higher priority than current exception priority, the processor wakes up but
does not execute the interrupt handler until the processor clears PRIMASK. For more information
about PRIMASK and FAULTMASK, see page 75 and page 76.
2.7.2.2
Wake Up from WFE
The processor wakes up if it detects an exception with sufficient priority to cause exception entry.
98
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
In addition, if the SEVONPEND bit in the SYSCTRL register is set, any new pending interrupt triggers
an event and wakes up the processor, even if the interrupt is disabled or has insufficient priority to
cause exception entry. For more information about SYSCTRL, see page 139.

Functional Description
This chapter provides information on the Stellaris implementation of the Cortex-M3 processor
peripherals: SysTick, NVIC, SCB and MPU.
3.1.1
System Timer (SysTick)
Cortex-M3 includes an integrated system timer, SysTick, which provides a simple, 24-bit
clear-on-write, decrementing, wrap-on-zero counter with a flexible control mechanism. The counter
can be used in several different ways, for example as:
■ An RTOS tick timer that fires at a programmable rate (for example, 100 Hz) and invokes a SysTick
routine.
■ A high-speed alarm timer using the system clock.
102
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
■ A variable rate alarm or signal timer—the duration is range-dependent on the reference clock
used and the dynamic range of the counter.
■ A simple counter used to measure time to completion and time used.
■ An internal clock source control based on missing/meeting durations. The COUNT bit in the
STCTRL control and status register can be used to determine if an action completed within a
set duration, as part of a dynamic clock management control loop.
The timer consists of three registers:
■ SysTick Control and Status (STCTRL): A control and status counter to configure its clock,
enable the counter, enable the SysTick interrupt, and determine counter status.
■ SysTick Reload Value (STRELOAD): The reload value for the counter, used to provide the
counter's wrap value.
■ SysTick Current Value (STCURRENT): The current value of the counter.
When enabled, the timer counts down on each clock from the reload value to zero, reloads (wraps)
to the value in the STRELOAD register on the next clock edge, then decrements on subsequent
clocks. Clearing the STRELOAD register disables the counter on the next wrap. When the counter
reaches zero, the COUNT status bit is set. The COUNT bit clears on reads.
Writing to the STCURRENT register clears the register and the COUNT status bit. The write does
not trigger the SysTick exception logic. On a read, the current value is the value of the register at
the time the register is accessed.
The SysTick counter runs on the system clock. If this clock signal is stopped for low power mode,
the SysTick counter stops. Ensure software uses aligned word accesses to access the SysTick
registers.
Note:
3.1.2
When the processor is halted for debugging, the counter does not decrement.
Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC)
This section describes the Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) and the registers it uses.
The NVIC supports:
■ 37 interrupts.
■ A programmable priority level of 0-7 for each interrupt. A higher level corresponds to a lower
priority, so level 0 is the highest interrupt priority.
■ Low-latency exception and interrupt handling.
■ Level and pulse detection of interrupt signals.
■ Dynamic reprioritization of interrupts.
■ Grouping of priority values into group priority and subpriority fields.
■ Interrupt tail-chaining.
■ An external Non-maskable interrupt (NMI).
January 21, 2012

Texas Instruments-Production Data
Cortex-M3 Peripherals
The processor automatically stacks its state on exception entry and unstacks this state on exception
exit, with no instruction overhead, providing low latency exception handling.
3.1.2.1
Level-Sensitive and Pulse Interrupts
The processor supports both level-sensitive and pulse interrupts. Pulse interrupts are also described
as edge-triggered interrupts.
A level-sensitive interrupt is held asserted until the peripheral deasserts the interrupt signal. Typically
this happens because the ISR accesses the peripheral, causing it to clear the interrupt request. A
pulse interrupt is an interrupt signal sampled synchronously on the rising edge of the processor
clock. To ensure the NVIC detects the interrupt, the peripheral must assert the interrupt signal for
at least one clock cycle, during which the NVIC detects the pulse and latches the interrupt.
When the processor enters the ISR, it automatically removes the pending state from the interrupt
(see “Hardware and Software Control of Interrupts” on page 104 for more information). For a
level-sensitive interrupt, if the signal is not deasserted before the processor returns from the ISR,
the interrupt becomes pending again, and the processor must execute its ISR again. As a result,
the peripheral can hold the interrupt signal asserted until it no longer needs servicing.
3.1.2.2
Hardware and Software Control of Interrupts
The Cortex-M3 latches all interrupts. A peripheral interrupt becomes pending for one of the following
reasons:
■ The NVIC detects that the interrupt signal is High and the interrupt is not active.
■ The NVIC detects a rising edge on the interrupt signal.
■ Software writes to the corresponding interrupt set-pending register bit, or to the Software Trigger
Interrupt (SWTRIG) register to make a Software-Generated Interrupt pending. See the INT bit
in the PEND0 register on page 121 or SWTRIG on page 129.
A pending interrupt remains pending until one of the following:
■ The processor enters the ISR for the interrupt, changing the state of the interrupt from pending
to active. Then:
– For a level-sensitive interrupt, when the processor returns from the ISR, the NVIC samples
the interrupt signal. If the signal is asserted, the state of the interrupt changes to pending,
which might cause the processor to immediately re-enter the ISR. Otherwise, the state of the
interrupt changes to inactive.
– For a pulse interrupt, the NVIC continues to monitor the interrupt signal, and if this is pulsed
the state of the interrupt changes to pending and active. In this case, when the processor
returns from the ISR the state of the interrupt changes to pending, which might cause the
processor to immediately re-enter the ISR.
If the interrupt signal is not pulsed while the processor is in the ISR, when the processor
returns from the ISR the state of the interrupt changes to inactive.
■ Software writes to the corresponding interrupt clear-pending register bit
– For a level-sensitive interrupt, if the interrupt signal is still asserted, the state of the interrupt
does not change. Otherwise, the state of the interrupt changes to inactive.

– For a pulse interrupt, the state of the interrupt changes to inactive, if the state was pending
or to active, if the state was active and pending.
3.1.3
System Control Block (SCB)
The System Control Block (SCB) provides system implementation information and system control,
including configuration, control, and reporting of the system exceptions.
3.1.4
Memory Protection Unit (MPU)
This section describes the Memory protection unit (MPU). The MPU divides the memory map into
a number of regions and defines the location, size, access permissions, and memory attributes of
each region. The MPU supports independent attribute settings for each region, overlapping regions,
and export of memory attributes to the system.
The memory attributes affect the behavior of memory accesses to the region. The Cortex-M3 MPU
defines eight separate memory regions, 0-7, and a background region.
When memory regions overlap, a memory access is affected by the attributes of the region with the
highest number. For example, the attributes for region 7 take precedence over the attributes of any
region that overlaps region 7.
The background region has the same memory access attributes as the default memory map, but is
accessible from privileged software only.
The Cortex-M3 MPU memory map is unified, meaning that instruction accesses and data accesses
have the same region settings.
If a program accesses a memory location that is prohibited by the MPU, the processor generates
a memory management fault, causing a fault exception and possibly causing termination of the
process in an OS environment. In an OS environment, the kernel can update the MPU region setting
dynamically based on the process to be executed. Typically, an embedded OS uses the MPU for
memory protection.
Configuration of MPU regions is based on memory types (see “Memory Regions, Types and
Attributes” on page 81 for more information).
Table 3-2 on page 105 shows the possible MPU region attributes. See the section called “MPU
Configuration for a Stellaris Microcontroller” on page 109 for guidelines for programming a
microcontroller implementation.

To avoid unexpected behavior, disable the interrupts before updating the attributes of a region that
the interrupt handlers might access.
Ensure software uses aligned accesses of the correct size to access MPU registers:
■ Except for the MPU Region Attribute and Size (MPUATTR) register, all MPU registers must
be accessed with aligned word accesses.
■ The MPUATTR register can be accessed with byte or aligned halfword or word accesses.

Cortex-M3 Peripherals
The processor does not support unaligned accesses to MPU registers.
When setting up the MPU, and if the MPU has previously been programmed, disable unused regions
to prevent any previous region settings from affecting the new MPU setup.
3.1.4.1
Updating an MPU Region
To update the attributes for an MPU region, the MPU Region Number (MPUNUMBER), MPU
Region Base Address (MPUBASE) and MPUATTR registers must be updated. Each register can
be programmed separately or with a multiple-word write to program all of these registers. You can
use the MPUBASEx and MPUATTRx aliases to program up to four regions simultaneously using
an STM instruction.
Updating an MPU Region Using Separate Words
This example simple code configures one region:
; R1 = region number
; R2 = size/enable
; R3 = attributes
; R4 = address
LDR R0,=MPUNUMBER
STR R1, [R0, #0x0]
STR R4, [R0, #0x4]
STRH R2, [R0, #0x8]
STRH R3, [R0, #0xA]
;
;
;
;
;

Disable a region before writing new region settings to the MPU if you have previously enabled the
region being changed. For example:
; R1 = region number
; R2 = size/enable
; R3 = attributes
; R4 = address
LDR R0,=MPUNUMBER
STR R1, [R0, #0x0]
BIC R2, R2, #1
STRH R2, [R0, #0x8]
STR R4, [R0, #0x4]
STRH R3, [R0, #0xA]

Software must use memory barrier instructions:
■ Before MPU setup, if there might be outstanding memory transfers, such as buffered writes, that
might be affected by the change in MPU settings.
■ After MPU setup, if it includes memory transfers that must use the new MPU settings.
However, memory barrier instructions are not required if the MPU setup process starts by entering
an exception handler, or is followed by an exception return, because the exception entry and
exception return mechanism cause memory barrier behavior.
Software does not need any memory barrier instructions during MPU setup, because it accesses
the MPU through the Private Peripheral Bus (PPB), which is a Strongly Ordered memory region.

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
For example, if all of the memory access behavior is intended to take effect immediately after the
programming sequence, then a DSB instruction and an ISB instruction should be used. A DSB is
required after changing MPU settings, such as at the end of context switch. An ISB is required if
the code that programs the MPU region or regions is entered using a branch or call. If the
programming sequence is entered using a return from exception, or by taking an exception, then
an ISB is not required.
Updating an MPU Region Using Multi-Word Writes
The MPU can be programmed directly using multi-word writes, depending how the information is
divided. Consider the following reprogramming:
; R1 = region number
; R2 = address
; R3 = size, attributes in one
LDR R0, =MPUNUMBER ; 0xE000ED98, MPU region number register
STR R1, [R0, #0x0] ; Region Number
STR R2, [R0, #0x4] ; Region Base Address
STR R3, [R0, #0x8] ; Region Attribute, Size and Enable
An STM instruction can be used to optimize this:
; R1 = region number
; R2 = address
; R3 = size, attributes in one
LDR R0, =MPUNUMBER ; 0xE000ED98, MPU region number register
STM R0, {R1-R3}
; Region number, address, attribute, size and enable
This operation can be done in two words for pre-packed information, meaning that the MPU Region
Base Address (MPUBASE) register (see page 163) contains the required region number and has
the VALID bit set. This method can be used when the data is statically packed, for example in a
boot loader:
; R1 = address and region number in one
; R2 = size and attributes in one
LDR R0, =MPUBASE
; 0xE000ED9C, MPU Region Base register
STR R1, [R0, #0x0] ; Region base address and region number combined
; with VALID (bit 4) set
STR R2, [R0, #0x4] ; Region Attribute, Size and Enable
Subregions
Regions of 256 bytes or more are divided into eight equal-sized subregions. Set the corresponding
bit in the SRD field of the MPU Region Attribute and Size (MPUATTR) register (see page 165) to
disable a subregion. The least-significant bit of the SRD field controls the first subregion, and the
most-significant bit controls the last subregion. Disabling a subregion means another region
overlapping the disabled range matches instead. If no other enabled region overlaps the disabled
subregion, the MPU issues a fault.
Regions of 32, 64, and 128 bytes do not support subregions. With regions of these sizes, the SRD
field must be configured to 0x00, otherwise the MPU behavior is unpredictable.

Example of SRD Use
Two regions with the same base address overlap. Region one is 128 KB, and region two is 512 KB.
To ensure the attributes from region one apply to the first 128 KB region, configure the SRD field for
region two to 0x03 to disable the first two subregions, as Figure 3-1 on page 108 shows.

MPU Access Permission Attributes
The access permission bits, TEX, S, C, B, AP, and XN of the MPUATTR register, control access to
the corresponding memory region. If an access is made to an area of memory without the required
permissions, then the MPU generates a permission fault.
Table 3-3 on page 108 shows the encodings for the TEX, C, B, and S access permission bits. All
encodings are shown for completeness, however the current implementation of the Cortex-M3 does
not support the concept of cacheability or shareability. Refer to the section called “MPU Configuration
for a Stellaris Microcontroller” on page 109 for information on programming the MPU for Stellaris
implementations.

In current Stellaris microcontroller implementations, the shareability and cache policy attributes do
not affect the system behavior. However, using these settings for the MPU regions can make the
application code more portable. The values given are for typical situations.
3.1.4.3
MPU Mismatch
When an access violates the MPU permissions, the processor generates a memory management
fault (see “Exceptions and Interrupts” on page 79 for more information). The MFAULTSTAT register
indicates the cause of the fault. See page 150 for more information.

This bit is cleared by a read of the register or if the STCURRENT register
is written with any value.
If read by the debugger using the DAP, this bit is cleared only if the
MasterType bit in the AHB-AP Control Register is clear. Otherwise,
the COUNT bit is not changed by the debugger read. See the ARM®

Register 2: SysTick Reload Value Register (STRELOAD), offset 0x014
Note:
This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The STRELOAD register specifies the start value to load into the SysTick Current Value
(STCURRENT) register when the counter reaches 0. The start value can be between 0x1 and
0x00FF.FFFF. A start value of 0 is possible but has no effect because the SysTick interrupt and the
COUNT bit are activated when counting from 1 to 0.
SysTick can be configured as a multi-shot timer, repeated over and over, firing every N+1 clock
pulses, where N is any value from 1 to 0x00FF.FFFF. For example, if a tick interrupt is required
every 100 clock pulses, 99 must be written into the RELOAD field.

NVIC Register Descriptions
This section lists and describes the NVIC registers, in numerical order by address offset.
The NVIC registers can only be fully accessed from privileged mode, but interrupts can be pended
while in unprivileged mode by enabling the Configuration and Control (CFGCTRL) register. Any
other unprivileged mode access causes a bus fault.
Ensure software uses correctly aligned register accesses. The processor does not support unaligned
accesses to NVIC registers.
An interrupt can enter the pending state even if it is disabled.
Before programming the VTABLE register to relocate the vector table, ensure the vector table
entries of the new vector table are set up for fault handlers, NMI, and all enabled exceptions such
as interrupts. For more information, see page 136.

This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The EN0 register enables interrupts and shows which interrupts are enabled. Bit 0 corresponds to
Interrupt 0; bit 31 corresponds to Interrupt 31.
See Table 2-9 on page 90 for interrupt assignments.
If a pending interrupt is enabled, the NVIC activates the interrupt based on its priority. If an interrupt
is not enabled, asserting its interrupt signal changes the interrupt state to pending, but the NVIC
never activates the interrupt, regardless of its priority.

The PRIn registers provide 3-bit priority fields for each interrupt. These registers are byte accessible.
Each register holds four priority fields that are assigned to interrupts as follows:
PRIn Register Bit Field
Interrupt
Bits 31:29
Interrupt [4n+3]
Bits 23:21
Interrupt [4n+2]
Bits 15:13
Interrupt [4n+1]

See Table 2-9 on page 90 for interrupt assignments.
Each priority level can be split into separate group priority and subpriority fields. The PRIGROUP
field in the Application Interrupt and Reset Control (APINT) register (see page 137) indicates the
position of the binary point that splits the priority and subpriority fields.
These registers can only be accessed from privileged mode.

System Control Block (SCB) Register Descriptions
This section lists and describes the System Control Block (SCB) registers, in numerical order by
address offset. The SCB registers can only be accessed from privileged mode.
All registers must be accessed with aligned word accesses except for the FAULTSTAT and
SYSPRI1-SYSPRI3 registers, which can be accessed with byte or aligned halfword or word accesses.
The processor does not support unaligned accesses to system control block registers.

DISFOLD

0
Disable IT Folding
Value Description
0
No effect.
1
Disables IT folding.
In some situations, the processor can start executing the first instruction
in an IT block while it is still executing the IT instruction. This behavior
is called IT folding, and improves performance, However, IT folding can
cause jitter in looping. If a task must avoid jitter, set the DISFOLD bit
before executing the task, to disable IT folding.
1
DISWBUF
R/W
0
Disable Write Buffer
Value Description
0
No effect.
1
Disables write buffer use during default memory map accesses.
In this situation, all bus faults are precise bus faults but
performance is decreased because any store to memory must
complete before the processor can execute the next instruction.
Note:
This bit only affects write buffers implemented in the
Cortex-M3 processor.

Register 31: Interrupt Control and State (INTCTRL), offset 0xD04
Note:
This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The INCTRL register provides a set-pending bit for the NMI exception, and set-pending and
clear-pending bits for the PendSV and SysTick exceptions. In addition, bits in this register indicate
the exception number of the exception being processed, whether there are preempted active
exceptions, the exception number of the highest priority pending exception, and whether any interrupts
are pending.
When writing to INCTRL, the effect is unpredictable when writing a 1 to both the PENDSV and
UNPENDSV bits, or writing a 1 to both the PENDSTSET and PENDSTCLR bits.

Register 33: Application Interrupt and Reset Control (APINT), offset 0xD0C
Note:
This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The APINT register provides priority grouping control for the exception model, endian status for
data accesses, and reset control of the system. To write to this register, 0x05FA must be written to
the VECTKEY field, otherwise the write is ignored.
The PRIGROUP field indicates the position of the binary point that splits the INTx fields in the
Interrupt Priority (PRIx) registers into separate group priority and subpriority fields. Table
3-8 on page 137 shows how the PRIGROUP value controls this split. The bit numbers in the Group
Priority Field and Subpriority Field columns in the table refer to the bits in the INTA field. For the
INTB field, the corresponding bits are 15:13; for INTC, 23:21; and for INTD, 31:29.
Note:
Determining preemption of an exception uses only the group priority field.

caused by load and store instructions.
Set this bit only when the handler and its data are in absolutely safe
memory. The normal use of this bit is to probe system devices and
bridges to detect control path problems and fix them.

Register 39: System Handler Control and State (SYSHNDCTRL), offset 0xD24
Note:
This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The SYSHNDCTRL register enables the system handlers, and indicates the pending status of the
usage fault, bus fault, memory management fault, and SVC exceptions as well as the active status
of the system handlers.
If a system handler is disabled and the corresponding fault occurs, the processor treats the fault as
a hard fault.
This register can be modified to change the pending or active status of system exceptions. An OS
kernel can write to the active bits to perform a context switch that changes the current exception
type.
Caution – Software that changes the value of an active bit in this register without correct adjustment
to the stacked content can cause the processor to generate a fault exception. Ensure software that writes
to this register retains and subsequently restores the current active status.
If the value of a bit in this register must be modified after enabling the system handlers, a
read-modify-write procedure must be used to ensure that only the required bit is modified.

Register 40: Configurable Fault Status (FAULTSTAT), offset 0xD28
Note:
This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The FAULTSTAT register indicates the cause of a memory management fault, bus fault, or usage
fault. Each of these functions is assigned to a subregister as follows:
■ Usage Fault Status (UFAULTSTAT), bits 31:16
■ Bus Fault Status (BFAULTSTAT), bits 15:8
■ Memory Management Fault Status (MFAULTSTAT), bits 7:0
FAULTSTAT is byte accessible. FAULTSTAT or its subregisters can be accessed as follows:

■
The complete FAULTSTAT register, with a word access to offset 0xD28
The MFAULTSTAT, with a byte access to offset 0xD28
The MFAULTSTAT and BFAULTSTAT, with a halfword access to offset 0xD28
The BFAULTSTAT, with a byte access to offset 0xD29
The UFAULTSTAT, with a halfword access to offset 0xD2A
Bits are cleared by writing a 1 to them.
In a fault handler, the true faulting address can be determined by:
1. Read and save the Memory Management Fault Address (MMADDR) or Bus Fault Address
(FAULTADDR) value.
2. Read the MMARV bit in MFAULTSTAT, or the BFARV bit in BFAULTSTAT to determine if the
MMADDR or FAULTADDR contents are valid.
Software must follow this sequence because another higher priority exception might change the
MMADDR or FAULTADDR value. For example, if a higher priority handler preempts the current
fault handler, the other fault might change the MMADDR or FAULTADDR value.

No bus fault has occurred on unstacking for a return from
exception.
1
Unstacking for a return from exception has caused one or more
bus faults.
This fault is chained to the handler. Thus, when this bit is set, the original
return stack is still present. The SP is not adjusted from the failing return,
a new save is not performed, and a fault address is not written to the
FAULTADDR register.
This bit is cleared by writing a 1 to it.

0
Imprecise Data Bus Error
Value Description
0
An imprecise data bus error has not occurred.
1
A data bus error has occurred, but the return address in the
stack frame is not related to the instruction that caused the error.
When this bit is set, a fault address is not written to the FAULTADDR
register.
This fault is asynchronous. Therefore, if the fault is detected when the
priority of the current process is higher than the bus fault priority, the
bus fault becomes pending and becomes active only when the processor
returns from all higher-priority processes. If a precise fault occurs before
the processor enters the handler for the imprecise bus fault, the handler
detects that both the IMPRE bit is set and one of the precise fault status
bits is set.
This bit is cleared by writing a 1 to it.

Precise Data Bus Error

fault.
When this bit is set, the fault address is written to the FAULTADDR
register.
This bit is cleared by writing a 1 to it.

If a memory management fault occurs and is escalated to a hard fault
because of priority, the hard fault handler must clear this bit. This action
prevents problems if returning to a stacked active memory management
fault handler whose MMADDR register value has been overwritten.
This bit is cleared by writing a 1 to it.

Note:
This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The MMADDR register contains the address of the location that generated a memory management
fault. When an unaligned access faults, the address in the MMADDR register is the actual address
that faulted. Because a single read or write instruction can be split into multiple aligned accesses,
the fault address can be any address in the range of the requested access size. Bits in the Memory
Management Fault Status (MFAULTSTAT) register indicate the cause of the fault and whether
the value in the MMADDR register is valid (see page 150).

Register 45: MPU Control (MPUCTRL), offset 0xD94
Note:
This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The MPUCTRL register enables the MPU, enables the default memory map background region,
and enables use of the MPU when in the hard fault, Non-maskable Interrupt (NMI), and Fault Mask
Register (FAULTMASK) escalated handlers.
When the ENABLE and PRIVDEFEN bits are both set:
■ For privileged accesses, the default memory map is as described in “Memory Model” on page 79.
Any access by privileged software that does not address an enabled memory region behaves
as defined by the default memory map.
■ Any access by unprivileged software that does not address an enabled memory region causes
a memory management fault.
Execute Never (XN) and Strongly Ordered rules always apply to the System Control Space regardless
of the value of the ENABLE bit.
When the ENABLE bit is set, at least one region of the memory map must be enabled for the system
to function unless the PRIVDEFEN bit is set. If the PRIVDEFEN bit is set and no regions are enabled,
then only privileged software can operate.
When the ENABLE bit is clear, the system uses the default memory map, which has the same
memory attributes as if the MPU is not implemented (see Table 2-5 on page 82 for more information).
The default memory map applies to accesses from both privileged and unprivileged software.
When the MPU is enabled, accesses to the System Control Space and vector table are always
permitted. Other areas are accessible based on regions and whether PRIVDEFEN is set.
Unless HFNMIENA is set, the MPU is not enabled when the processor is executing the handler for
an exception with priority –1 or –2. These priorities are only possible when handling a hard fault or
NMI exception or when FAULTMASK is enabled. Setting the HFNMIENA bit enables the MPU when
operating with these two priorities.

Note:
This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The MPUBASE register defines the base address of the MPU region selected by the MPU Region

change the current region number and update the MPUNUMBER register, write the MPUBASE

The ADDR field is bits 31:N of the MPUBASE register. Bits (N-1):5 are reserved. The region size,
as specified by the SIZE field in the MPU Region Attribute and Size (MPUATTR) register, defines
the value of N where:
N = Log2(Region size in bytes)
If the region size is configured to 4 GB in the MPUATTR register, there is no valid ADDR field. In
this case, the region occupies the complete memory map, and the base address is 0x0000.0000.
The base address is aligned to the size of the region. For example, a 64-KB region must be aligned
on a multiple of 64 KB, for example, at 0x0001.0000 or 0x0002.0000.

Note:
This register can only be accessed from privileged mode.
The MPUATTR register defines the region size and memory attributes of the MPU region specified
by the MPU Region Number (MPUNUMBER) register and enables that region and any subregions.
The MPUATTR register is accessible using word or halfword accesses with the most-significant
halfword holding the region attributes and the least-significant halfword holds the region size and
the region and subregion enable bits.
The MPU access permission attribute bits, XN, AP, TEX, S, C, and B, control access to the
corresponding memory region. If an access is made to an area of memory without the required
permissions, then the MPU generates a permission fault.
The SIZE field defines the size of the MPU memory region specified by the MPUNUMBER register
as follows:
(Region size in bytes) = 2(SIZE+1)
The smallest permitted region size is 32 bytes, corresponding to a SIZE value of 4. Table

JTAG Interface

JTAG Interface
The Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) port is an IEEE standard that defines a Test Access Port and
Boundary Scan Architecture for digital integrated circuits and provides a standardized serial interface
for controlling the associated test logic. The TAP, Instruction Register (IR), and Data Registers (DR)
can be used to test the interconnections of assembled printed circuit boards and obtain manufacturing
information on the components. The JTAG Port also provides a means of accessing and controlling
design-for-test features such as I/O pin observation and control, scan testing, and debugging.
The JTAG port is comprised of four pins: TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO. Data is transmitted serially into
the controller on TDI and out of the controller on TDO. The interpretation of this data is dependent
on the current state of the TAP controller. For detailed information on the operation of the JTAG
port and TAP controller, please refer to the IEEE Standard 1149.1-Test Access Port and
Boundary-Scan Architecture.
®
The Stellaris JTAG controller works with the ARM JTAG controller built into the Cortex-M3 core
by multiplexing the TDO outputs from both JTAG controllers. ARM JTAG instructions select the ARM
TDO output while Stellaris JTAG instructions select the Stellaris TDO output. The multiplexer is
controlled by the Stellaris JTAG controller, which has comprehensive programming for the ARM,
Stellaris, and unimplemented JTAG instructions.
The Stellaris JTAG module has the following features:
■ IEEE 1149.1-1990 compatible Test Access Port (TAP) controller
■ Four-bit Instruction Register (IR) chain for storing JTAG instructions
■ IEEE standard instructions: BYPASS, IDCODE, SAMPLE/PRELOAD, EXTEST and INTEST
■ ARM additional instructions: APACC, DPACC and ABORT
■ Integrated ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD)
– Serial Wire JTAG Debug Port (SWJ-DP)
– Flash Patch and Breakpoint (FPB) unit for implementing breakpoints
– Data Watchpoint and Trace (DWT) unit for implementing watchpoints, trigger resources, and
system profiling
– Instrumentation Trace Macrocell (ITM) for support of printf style debugging
– Trace Port Interface Unit (TPIU) for bridging to a Trace Port Analyzer

Signal Description
The following table lists the external signals of the JTAG/SWD controller and describes the function
of each. The JTAG/SWD controller signals are alternate functions for some GPIO signals, however
note that the reset state of the pins is for the JTAG/SWD function. The JTAG/SWD controller signals
are under commit protection and require a special process to be configured as GPIOs, see “Commit
Control” on page 404. The column in the table below titled "Pin Mux/Pin Assignment" lists the GPIO
pin placement for the JTAG/SWD controller signals. The AFSEL bit in the GPIO Alternate Function
Select (GPIOAFSEL) register (page 420) is set to choose the JTAG/SWD function. The number in
parentheses is the encoding that must be programmed into the PMCn field in the GPIO Port Control
(GPIOPCTL) register (page 438) to assign the JTAG/SWD controller signals to the specified GPIO
port pin. For more information on configuring GPIOs, see “General-Purpose Input/Outputs
(GPIOs)” on page 396.

Functional Description
A high-level conceptual drawing of the JTAG module is shown in Figure 4-1 on page 169. The JTAG
module is composed of the Test Access Port (TAP) controller and serial shift chains with parallel
update registers. The TAP controller is a simple state machine controlled by the TCK and TMS inputs.
The current state of the TAP controller depends on the sequence of values captured on TMS at the
rising edge of TCK. The TAP controller determines when the serial shift chains capture new data,
shift data from TDI towards TDO, and update the parallel load registers. The current state of the
TAP controller also determines whether the Instruction Register (IR) chain or one of the Data Register
(DR) chains is being accessed.
The serial shift chains with parallel load registers are comprised of a single Instruction Register (IR)
chain and multiple Data Register (DR) chains. The current instruction loaded in the parallel load
register determines which DR chain is captured, shifted, or updated during the sequencing of the
TAP controller.
Some instructions, like EXTEST and INTEST, operate on data currently in a DR chain and do not
capture, shift, or update any of the chains. Instructions that are not implemented decode to the
BYPASS instruction to ensure that the serial path between TDI and TDO is always connected (see
Table 4-4 on page 176 for a list of implemented instructions).
See “JTAG and Boundary Scan” on page 887 for JTAG timing diagrams.
Note:
4.3.1
Of all the possible reset sources, only Power-On reset (POR) and the assertion of the RST
input have any effect on the JTAG module. The pin configurations are reset by both the
RST input and POR, whereas the internal JTAG logic is only reset with POR. See “Reset
Sources” on page 181 for more information on reset.
JTAG Interface Pins
The JTAG interface consists of four standard pins: TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO. These pins and their
associated state after a power-on reset or reset caused by the RST input are given in Table 4-3.
Detailed information on each pin follows. Refer to “General-Purpose Input/Outputs
(GPIOs)” on page 396 for information on how to reprogram the configuration of these pins.

Test Clock Input (TCK)
The TCK pin is the clock for the JTAG module. This clock is provided so the test logic can operate
independently of any other system clocks and to ensure that multiple JTAG TAP controllers that
are daisy-chained together can synchronously communicate serial test data between components.
During normal operation, TCK is driven by a free-running clock with a nominal 50% duty cycle. When
necessary, TCK can be stopped at 0 or 1 for extended periods of time. While TCK is stopped at 0
or 1, the state of the TAP controller does not change and data in the JTAG Instruction and Data
Registers is not lost.
By default, the internal pull-up resistor on the TCK pin is enabled after reset, assuring that no clocking
occurs if the pin is not driven from an external source. The internal pull-up and pull-down resistors
can be turned off to save internal power as long as the TCK pin is constantly being driven by an
external source (see page 426 and page 428).
4.3.1.2
Test Mode Select (TMS)
The TMS pin selects the next state of the JTAG TAP controller. TMS is sampled on the rising edge
of TCK. Depending on the current TAP state and the sampled value of TMS, the next state may be
entered. Because the TMS pin is sampled on the rising edge of TCK, the IEEE Standard 1149.1
expects the value on TMS to change on the falling edge of TCK.
Holding TMS high for five consecutive TCK cycles drives the TAP controller state machine to the
Test-Logic-Reset state. When the TAP controller enters the Test-Logic-Reset state, the JTAG
module and associated registers are reset to their default values. This procedure should be performed
to initialize the JTAG controller. The JTAG Test Access Port state machine can be seen in its entirety
in Figure 4-2 on page 172.
By default, the internal pull-up resistor on the TMS pin is enabled after reset. Changes to the pull-up
resistor settings on GPIO Port C should ensure that the internal pull-up resistor remains enabled
on PC1/TMS; otherwise JTAG communication could be lost (see page 426).
4.3.1.3
Test Data Input (TDI)
The TDI pin provides a stream of serial information to the IR chain and the DR chains. TDI is
sampled on the rising edge of TCK and, depending on the current TAP state and the current
instruction, may present this data to the proper shift register chain. Because the TDI pin is sampled
on the rising edge of TCK, the IEEE Standard 1149.1 expects the value on TDI to change on the
falling edge of TCK.
By default, the internal pull-up resistor on the TDI pin is enabled after reset. Changes to the pull-up
resistor settings on GPIO Port C should ensure that the internal pull-up resistor remains enabled
on PC2/TDI; otherwise JTAG communication could be lost (see page 426).
4.3.1.4
Test Data Output (TDO)
The TDO pin provides an output stream of serial information from the IR chain or the DR chains.
The value of TDO depends on the current TAP state, the current instruction, and the data in the

Texas Instruments-Production Data
JTAG Interface
chain being accessed. In order to save power when the JTAG port is not being used, the TDO pin
is placed in an inactive drive state when not actively shifting out data. Because TDO can be connected
to the TDI of another controller in a daisy-chain configuration, the IEEE Standard 1149.1 expects
the value on TDO to change on the falling edge of TCK.
By default, the internal pull-up resistor on the TDO pin is enabled after reset, assuring that the pin
remains at a constant logic level when the JTAG port is not being used. The internal pull-up and
pull-down resistors can be turned off to save internal power if a High-Z output value is acceptable
during certain TAP controller states (see page 426 and page 428).
4.3.2
JTAG TAP Controller
The JTAG TAP controller state machine is shown in Figure 4-2. The TAP controller state machine
is reset to the Test-Logic-Reset state on the assertion of a Power-On-Reset (POR). In order to reset
the JTAG module after the microcontroller has been powered on, the TMS input must be held HIGH
for five TCK clock cycles, resetting the TAP controller and all associated JTAG chains. Asserting
the correct sequence on the TMS pin allows the JTAG module to shift in new instructions, shift in
data, or idle during extended testing sequences. For detailed information on the function of the TAP
controller and the operations that occur in each state, please refer to IEEE Standard 1149.1.

Shift Registers
The Shift Registers consist of a serial shift register chain and a parallel load register. The serial shift
register chain samples specific information during the TAP controller’s CAPTURE states and allows

this information to be shifted out on TDO during the TAP controller’s SHIFT states. While the sampled
data is being shifted out of the chain on TDO, new data is being shifted into the serial shift register
on TDI. This new data is stored in the parallel load register during the TAP controller’s UPDATE
states. Each of the shift registers is discussed in detail in “Register Descriptions” on page 176.
4.3.4
Operational Considerations
Certain operational parameters must be considered when using the JTAG module. Because the
JTAG pins can be programmed to be GPIOs, board configuration and reset conditions on these
pins must be considered. In addition, because the JTAG module has integrated ARM Serial Wire
Debug, the method for switching between these two operational modes is described below.
4.3.4.1
GPIO Functionality
When the microcontroller is reset with either a POR or RST, the JTAG/SWD port pins default to their
JTAG/SWD configurations. The default configuration includes enabling digital functionality (DEN[3:0]
set in the Port C GPIO Digital Enable (GPIODEN) register), enabling the pull-up resistors (PUE[3:0]
set in the Port C GPIO Pull-Up Select (GPIOPUR) register), disabling the pull-down resistors
(PDE[3:0] cleared in the Port C GPIO Pull-Down Select (GPIOPDR) register) and enabling the
alternate hardware function (AFSEL[3:0] set in the Port C GPIO Alternate Function Select
(GPIOAFSEL) register) on the JTAG/SWD pins. See page 420, page 426, page 428, and page 431.
It is possible for software to configure these pins as GPIOs after reset by clearing AFSEL[3:0] in
the Port C GPIOAFSEL register. If the user does not require the JTAG/SWD port for debugging or
board-level testing, this provides four more GPIOs for use in the design.
Caution – It is possible to create a software sequence that prevents the debugger from connecting to
the Stellaris microcontroller. If the program code loaded into flash immediately changes the JTAG pins
to their GPIO functionality, the debugger may not have enough time to connect and halt the controller
before the JTAG pin functionality switches. As a result, the debugger may be locked out of the part.
This issue can be avoided with a software routine that restores JTAG functionality based on an external
or software trigger.
The GPIO commit control registers provide a layer of protection against accidental programming of
critical hardware peripherals. Protection is provided for the NMI pin (PB7) and the four JTAG/SWD
pins (PC[3:0]). Writes to protected bits of the GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL)
register (see page 420), GPIO Pull Up Select (GPIOPUR) register (see page 426), GPIO Pull-Down
Select (GPIOPDR) register (see page 428), and GPIO Digital Enable (GPIODEN) register (see
page 431) are not committed to storage unless the GPIO Lock (GPIOLOCK) register (see page 433)
has been unlocked and the appropriate bits of the GPIO Commit (GPIOCR) register (see page 434)
have been set.
4.3.4.2
Communication with JTAG/SWD
Because the debug clock and the system clock can be running at different frequencies, care must
be taken to maintain reliable communication with the JTAG/SWD interface. In the Capture-DR state,
the result of the previous transaction, if any, is returned, together with a 3-bit ACK response. Software
should check the ACK response to see if the previous operation has completed before initiating a
new transaction. Alternatively, if the system clock is at least 8 times faster than the debug clock
(TCK or SWCLK), the previous operation has enough time to complete and the ACK bits do not have
to be checked.

4.3.4.3
Recovering a "Locked" Microcontroller
Note:
Performing the sequence below restores the non-volatile registers discussed in “Non-Volatile
Register Programming” on page 308 to their factory default values. The mass erase of the
Flash memory caused by the sequence below occurs prior to the non-volatile registers
being restored.
If software configures any of the JTAG/SWD pins as GPIO and loses the ability to communicate
with the debugger, there is a debug port unlock sequence that can be used to recover the
microcontroller. Performing a total of ten JTAG-to-SWD and SWD-to-JTAG switch sequences while
holding the microcontroller in reset mass erases the Flash memory. The debug port unlock sequence
is:
1. Assert and hold the RST signal.
2. Apply power to the device.
3. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the JTAG-to-SWD switch sequence on the section called “JTAG-to-SWD
Switching” on page 175.
4. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the SWD-to-JTAG switch sequence on the section called “SWD-to-JTAG
Switching” on page 175.
5. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the JTAG-to-SWD switch sequence.
6. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the SWD-to-JTAG switch sequence.
7. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the JTAG-to-SWD switch sequence.
8. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the SWD-to-JTAG switch sequence.
9. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the JTAG-to-SWD switch sequence.
10. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the SWD-to-JTAG switch sequence.
11. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the JTAG-to-SWD switch sequence.
12. Perform steps 1 and 2 of the SWD-to-JTAG switch sequence.
13. Release the RST signal.
14. Wait 400 ms.
15. Power-cycle the microcontroller.
4.3.4.4
ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD)
In order to seamlessly integrate the ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD) functionality, a serial-wire
debugger must be able to connect to the Cortex-M3 core without having to perform, or have any
knowledge of, JTAG cycles. This integration is accomplished with a SWD preamble that is issued
before the SWD session begins.
The switching preamble used to enable the SWD interface of the SWJ-DP module starts with the
TAP controller in the Test-Logic-Reset state. From here, the preamble sequences the TAP controller
through the following states: Run Test Idle, Select DR, Select IR, Test Logic Reset, Test Logic
Reset, Run Test Idle, Run Test Idle, Select DR, Select IR, Test Logic Reset, Test Logic Reset, Run
Test Idle, Run Test Idle, Select DR, Select IR, and Test Logic Reset states.

January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
Stepping through this sequence of the TAP state machine enables the SWD interface and disables
the JTAG interface. For more information on this operation and the SWD interface, see the ARM®
Debug Interface V5 Architecture Specification.
Because this sequence is a valid series of JTAG operations that could be issued, the ARM JTAG
TAP controller is not fully compliant to the IEEE Standard 1149.1. This instance is the only one
where the ARM JTAG TAP controller does not meet full compliance with the specification. Due to
the low probability of this sequence occurring during normal operation of the TAP controller, it should
not affect normal performance of the JTAG interface.
JTAG-to-SWD Switching
To switch the operating mode of the Debug Access Port (DAP) from JTAG to SWD mode, the
external debug hardware must send the switching preamble to the microcontroller. The 16-bit TMS
command for switching to SWD mode is defined as b1110.0111.1001.1110, transmitted LSB first.
This command can also be represented as 0xE79E when transmitted LSB first. The complete switch
sequence should consist of the following transactions on the TCK/SWCLK and TMS/SWDIO signals:
1. Send at least 50 TCK/SWCLK cycles with TMS/SWDIO High to ensure that both JTAG and SWD
are in their reset/idle states.
2. Send the 16-bit JTAG-to-SWD switch command, 0xE79E, on TMS.
3. Send at least 50 TCK/SWCLK cycles with TMS/SWDIO High to ensure that if SWJ-DP was already
in SWD mode, the SWD goes into the line reset state before sending the switch sequence.
SWD-to-JTAG Switching
To switch the operating mode of the Debug Access Port (DAP) from SWD to JTAG mode, the
external debug hardware must send a switch command to the microcontroller. The 16-bit TMS
command for switching to JTAG mode is defined as b1110.0111.0011.1100, transmitted LSB first.
This command can also be represented as 0xE73C when transmitted LSB first. The complete switch
sequence should consist of the following transactions on the TCK/SWCLK and TMS/SWDIO signals:
1. Send at least 50 TCK/SWCLK cycles with TMS/SWDIO High to ensure that both JTAG and SWD
are in their reset/idle states.
2. Send the 16-bit SWD-to-JTAG switch command, 0xE73C, on TMS.
3. Send at least 50 TCK/SWCLK cycles with TMS/SWDIO High to ensure that if SWJ-DP was already
in JTAG mode, the JTAG goes into the Test Logic Reset state before sending the switch
sequence.
4.4
Initialization and Configuration
After a Power-On-Reset or an external reset (RST), the JTAG pins are automatically configured for
JTAG communication. No user-defined initialization or configuration is needed. However, if the user
application changes these pins to their GPIO function, they must be configured back to their JTAG
functionality before JTAG communication can be restored. To return the pins to their JTAG functions,
enable the four JTAG pins (PC[3:0]) for their alternate function using the GPIOAFSEL register.
In addition to enabling the alternate functions, any other changes to the GPIO pad configurations
on the four JTAG pins (PC[3:0]) should be returned to their default settings.

Register Descriptions
The registers in the JTAG TAP Controller or Shift Register chains are not memory mapped and are
not accessible through the on-chip Advanced Peripheral Bus (APB). Instead, the registers within
the JTAG controller are all accessed serially through the TAP Controller. These registers include
the Instruction Register and the six Data Registers.
4.5.1
Instruction Register (IR)
The JTAG TAP Instruction Register (IR) is a four-bit serial scan chain connected between the JTAG
TDI and TDO pins with a parallel load register. When the TAP Controller is placed in the correct
states, bits can be shifted into the IR. Once these bits have been shifted into the chain and updated,
they are interpreted as the current instruction. The decode of the IR bits is shown in Table 4-4. A
detailed explanation of each instruction, along with its associated Data Register, follows.

All Others
Reserved
Defaults to the BYPASS instruction to ensure that TDI is always connected
to TDO.
Captures the current I/O values and shifts the sampled values out of the
Boundary Scan Chain while new preload data is shifted in.
EXTEST Instruction
The EXTEST instruction is not associated with its own Data Register chain. Instead, the EXTEST
instruction uses the data that has been preloaded into the Boundary Scan Data Register using the
SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction. When the EXTEST instruction is present in the Instruction Register,
the preloaded data in the Boundary Scan Data Register associated with the outputs and output
enables are used to drive the GPIO pads rather than the signals coming from the core. With tests
that drive known values out of the controller, this instruction can be used to verify connectivity. While
the EXTEST instruction is present in the Instruction Register, the Boundary Scan Data Register can
be accessed to sample and shift out the current data and load new data into the Boundary Scan
Data Register.
4.5.1.2
INTEST Instruction
The INTEST instruction is not associated with its own Data Register chain. Instead, the INTEST
instruction uses the data that has been preloaded into the Boundary Scan Data Register using the
SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction. When the INTEST instruction is present in the Instruction Register,
the preloaded data in the Boundary Scan Data Register associated with the inputs are used to drive
the signals going into the core rather than the signals coming from the GPIO pads. With tests that
drive known values into the controller, this instruction can be used for testing. It is important to note
that although the RST input pin is on the Boundary Scan Data Register chain, it is only observable.

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
While the INTEST instruction is present in the Instruction Register, the Boundary Scan Data Register
can be accessed to sample and shift out the current data and load new data into the Boundary Scan
Data Register.
4.5.1.3
SAMPLE/PRELOAD Instruction
The SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction connects the Boundary Scan Data Register chain between
TDI and TDO. This instruction samples the current state of the pad pins for observation and preloads
new test data. Each GPIO pad has an associated input, output, and output enable signal. When the
TAP controller enters the Capture DR state during this instruction, the input, output, and output-enable
signals to each of the GPIO pads are captured. These samples are serially shifted out on TDO while
the TAP controller is in the Shift DR state and can be used for observation or comparison in various
tests.
While these samples of the inputs, outputs, and output enables are being shifted out of the Boundary
Scan Data Register, new data is being shifted into the Boundary Scan Data Register from TDI.
Once the new data has been shifted into the Boundary Scan Data Register, the data is saved in the
parallel load registers when the TAP controller enters the Update DR state. This update of the
parallel load register preloads data into the Boundary Scan Data Register that is associated with
each input, output, and output enable. This preloaded data can be used with the EXTEST and
INTEST instructions to drive data into or out of the controller. See “Boundary Scan Data
Register” on page 178 for more information.
4.5.1.4
ABORT Instruction
The ABORT instruction connects the associated ABORT Data Register chain between TDI and
TDO. This instruction provides read and write access to the ABORT Register of the ARM Debug
Access Port (DAP). Shifting the proper data into this Data Register clears various error bits or initiates
a DAP abort of a previous request. See the “ABORT Data Register” on page 179 for more information.
4.5.1.5
DPACC Instruction
The DPACC instruction connects the associated DPACC Data Register chain between TDI and
TDO. This instruction provides read and write access to the DPACC Register of the ARM Debug
Access Port (DAP). Shifting the proper data into this register and reading the data output from this
register allows read and write access to the ARM debug and status registers. See “DPACC Data
Register” on page 179 for more information.
4.5.1.6
APACC Instruction
The APACC instruction connects the associated APACC Data Register chain between TDI and
TDO. This instruction provides read and write access to the APACC Register of the ARM Debug
Access Port (DAP). Shifting the proper data into this register and reading the data output from this
register allows read and write access to internal components and buses through the Debug Port.
See “APACC Data Register” on page 179 for more information.
4.5.1.7
IDCODE Instruction
The IDCODE instruction connects the associated IDCODE Data Register chain between TDI and
TDO. This instruction provides information on the manufacturer, part number, and version of the
ARM core. This information can be used by testing equipment and debuggers to automatically
configure input and output data streams. IDCODE is the default instruction loaded into the JTAG
Instruction Register when a Power-On-Reset (POR) is asserted, or the Test-Logic-Reset state is
entered. See “IDCODE Data Register” on page 178 for more information.

JTAG Interface
4.5.1.8
BYPASS Instruction
The BYPASS instruction connects the associated BYPASS Data Register chain between TDI and
TDO. This instruction is used to create a minimum length serial path between the TDI and TDO ports.
The BYPASS Data Register is a single-bit shift register. This instruction improves test efficiency by
allowing components that are not needed for a specific test to be bypassed in the JTAG scan chain
by loading them with the BYPASS instruction. See “BYPASS Data Register” on page 178 for more
information.
4.5.2
Data Registers
The JTAG module contains six Data Registers. These serial Data Register chains include: IDCODE,
BYPASS, Boundary Scan, APACC, DPACC, and ABORT and are discussed in the following sections.
4.5.2.1
IDCODE Data Register
The format for the 32-bit IDCODE Data Register defined by the IEEE Standard 1149.1 is shown in
Figure 4-3. The standard requires that every JTAG-compliant microcontroller implement either the
IDCODE instruction or the BYPASS instruction as the default instruction. The LSB of the IDCODE
Data Register is defined to be a 1 to distinguish it from the BYPASS instruction, which has an LSB
of 0. This definition allows auto-configuration test tools to determine which instruction is the default
instruction.
The major uses of the JTAG port are for manufacturer testing of component assembly and program
development and debug. To facilitate the use of auto-configuration debug tools, the IDCODE
instruction outputs a value of 0x4BA0.0477. This value allows the debuggers to automatically
configure themselves to work correctly with the Cortex-M3 during debug.

GPIO pin has three associated digital signals that are included in the chain. These signals are input,
output, and output enable, and are arranged in that order as shown in the figure.
When the Boundary Scan Data Register is accessed with the SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction, the
input, output, and output enable from each digital pad are sampled and then shifted out of the chain
to be verified. The sampling of these values occurs on the rising edge of TCK in the Capture DR
state of the TAP controller. While the sampled data is being shifted out of the Boundary Scan chain
in the Shift DR state of the TAP controller, new data can be preloaded into the chain for use with
the EXTEST and INTEST instructions. The EXTEST instruction forces data out of the controller,
and the INTEST instruction forces data into the controller.

System Control
System control configures the overall operation of the device and provides information about the
device. Configurable features include reset control, NMI operation, power control, clock control, and
low-power modes.
5.1
Signal Description
The following table lists the external signals of the System Control module and describes the function
of each. The NMI signal is the alternate function for the GPIO PB7 signal and functions as a GPIO
after reset. PB7 is under commit protection and requires a special process to be configured as any
alternate function or to subsequently return to the GPIO function, see “Commit Control” on page 404.
The column in the table below titled "Pin Mux/Pin Assignment" lists the GPIO pin placement for the
NMI signal. The AFSEL bit in the GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL) register (page 420)
should be set to choose the NMI function. The number in parentheses is the encoding that must be
programmed into the PMCn field in the GPIO Port Control (GPIOPCTL) register (page 438) to assign
the NMI signal to the specified GPIO port pin. For more information on configuring GPIOs, see
“General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)” on page 396. The remaining signals (with the word "fixed"
in the Pin Mux/Pin Assignment column) have a fixed pin assignment and function.

Several read-only registers provide software with information on the microcontroller, such as version,
part number, SRAM size, Flash memory size, and other features. See the DID0 (page 199), DID1

Reset Control
This section discusses aspects of hardware functions during reset as well as system software
requirements following the reset sequence.
5.2.2.1
Reset Sources
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller has six sources of reset:
1. Power-on reset (POR) (see page 182).
2. External reset input pin (RST) assertion (see page 182).
3. Internal brown-out (BOR) detector (see page 184).
4. Software-initiated reset (with the software reset registers) (see page 184).
5. A watchdog timer reset condition violation (see page 185).
6. MOSC failure (see page 186).

After a reset, the Reset Cause (RESC) register is set with the reset cause. The bits in this register
are sticky and maintain their state across multiple reset sequences, except when an internal POR
is the cause, in which case, all the bits in the RESC register are cleared except for the POR indicator.
A bit in the RESC register can be cleared by writing a 0.

Texas Instruments-Production Data
System Control
At any reset that resets the core, the user has the opportunity to direct the core to execute the ROM
Boot Loader or the application in Flash memory by using any GPIO signal as configured in the Boot
Configuration (BOOTCFG) register.
At reset, the ROM is mapped over the Flash memory so that the ROM boot sequence is always
executed. The boot sequence executed from ROM is as follows:
1. The BA bit (below) is cleared such that ROM is mapped to 0x01xx.xxxx and Flash memory is
mapped to address 0x0.
2. The BOOTCFG register is read. If the EN bit is clear, the status of the specified GPIO pin is
compared with the specified polarity. If the status matches the specified polarity, the ROM is
mapped to address 0x0000.0000 and execution continues out of the ROM Boot Loader.
3. If the status doesn't match the specified polarity, the data at address 0x0000.0004 is read, and
if the data at this address is 0xFFFF.FFFF, the ROM is mapped to address 0x0000.0000 and
execution continues out of the ROM Boot Loader.
4. If there is valid data at address 0x0000.0004, the stack pointer (SP) is loaded from Flash memory
at address 0x0000.0000 and the program counter (PC) is loaded from address 0x0000.0004.
The user application begins executing.
For example, if the BOOTCFG register is written and committed with the value of 0x0000.3C01,
then PB7 is examined at reset to determine if the ROM Boot Loader should be executed. If PB7 is
Low, the core unconditionally begins executing the ROM boot loader. If PB7 is High, then the
application in Flash memory is executed if the reset vector at location 0x0000.0004 is not
0xFFFF.FFFF. Otherwise, the ROM boot loader is executed.
5.2.2.2
Power-On Reset (POR)
The internal Power-On Reset (POR) circuit monitors the power supply voltage (VDD) and generates
a reset signal to all of the internal logic including JTAG when the power supply ramp reaches a
threshold value (VTH). The microcontroller must be operating within the specified operating parameters
when the on-chip power-on reset pulse is complete (see “Power and Brown-Out” on page 889). For
applications that require the use of an external reset signal to hold the microcontroller in reset longer
than the internal POR, the RST input may be used as discussed in “External RST Pin” on page 182.
The Power-On Reset sequence is as follows:
1. The microcontroller waits for internal POR to go inactive.
2. The internal reset is released and the core loads from memory the initial stack pointer, the initial
program counter, and the first instruction designated by the program counter, and then begins
execution.
The internal POR is only active on the initial power-up of the microcontroller and when the
microcontroller wakes from hibernation. The Power-On Reset timing is shown in Figure
21-4 on page 889.
5.2.2.3
External RST Pin
Note:
It is recommended that the trace for the RST signal must be kept as short as possible. Be
sure to place any components connected to the RST signal as close to the microcontroller
as possible.

If the application only uses the internal POR circuit, the RST input must be connected to the power
supply (VDD) through an optional pull-up resistor (0 to 100K Ω) as shown in Figure 5-1 on page 183.

RPU = 0 to 100 kΩ
The external reset pin (RST) resets the microcontroller including the core and all the on-chip
peripherals except the JTAG TAP controller (see “JTAG Interface” on page 168). The external reset
sequence is as follows:
1. The external reset pin (RST) is asserted for the duration specified by TMIN and then de-asserted
(see “Reset” on page 890).
2. The internal reset is released and the core loads from memory the initial stack pointer, the initial
program counter, and the first instruction designated by the program counter, and then begins
execution.
To improve noise immunity and/or to delay reset at power up, the RST input may be connected to
an RC network as shown in Figure 5-2 on page 183.

5.2.2.4
Brown-Out Reset (BOR)
The microcontroller provides a brown-out detection circuit that triggers if the power supply (VDD)
drops below a brown-out threshold voltage (VBTH). If a brown-out condition is detected, the system
may generate an interrupt or a system reset. The default condition is to generate an interrupt, so
BOR must be enabled. Brown-out resets are controlled with the Power-On and Brown-Out Reset
Control (PBORCTL) register. The BORIOR bit in the PBORCTL register must be set for a brown-out
condition to trigger a reset; if BORIOR is clear, an interrupt is generated. When a Brown-out condition
occurs during a Flash PROGRAM or ERASE operation, a full system reset is always triggered
without regard to the setting in the PBORCTL register.
The brown-out reset sequence is as follows:
1. When VDD drops below VBTH, an internal BOR condition is set.
2. If the BOR condition exists, an internal reset is asserted.
3. The internal reset is released and the microcontroller fetches and loads the initial stack pointer,
the initial program counter, the first instruction designated by the program counter, and begins
execution.
4. The internal BOR condition is reset after 500 µs to prevent another BOR condition from being
set before software has a chance to investigate the original cause.
The result of a brown-out reset is equivalent to that of an assertion of the external RST input, and
the reset is held active until the proper VDD level is restored. The RESC register can be examined
in the reset interrupt handler to determine if a Brown-Out condition was the cause of the reset, thus
allowing software to determine what actions are required to recover.
The internal Brown-Out Reset timing is shown in Figure 21-5 on page 889.
5.2.2.5
Software Reset
Software can reset a specific peripheral or generate a reset to the entire microcontroller.

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
Peripherals can be individually reset by software via three registers that control reset signals to each
on-chip peripheral (see the SRCRn registers, page 267). If the bit position corresponding to a
peripheral is set and subsequently cleared, the peripheral is reset. The encoding of the reset registers
is consistent with the encoding of the clock gating control for peripherals and on-chip functions (see
“System Control” on page 194).
The entire microcontroller, including the core, can be reset by software by setting the SYSRESREQ
bit in the Application Interrupt and Reset Control (APINT) register. The software-initiated system
reset sequence is as follows:
1. A software microcontroller reset is initiated by setting the SYSRESREQ bit.
2. An internal reset is asserted.
3. The internal reset is deasserted and the microcontroller loads from memory the initial stack
pointer, the initial program counter, and the first instruction designated by the program counter,
and then begins execution.
The core only can be reset by software by setting the VECTRESET bit in the APINT register. The
software-initiated core reset sequence is as follows:
1. A core reset is initiated by setting the VECTRESET bit.
2. An internal reset is asserted.
3. The internal reset is deasserted and the microcontroller loads from memory the initial stack
pointer, the initial program counter, and the first instruction designated by the program counter,
and then begins execution.
The software-initiated system reset timing is shown in Figure 21-8 on page 890.
5.2.2.6
Watchdog Timer Reset
The Watchdog Timer module's function is to prevent system hangs. The LM3S1B21 microcontroller
has two Watchdog Timer modules in case one watchdog clock source fails. One watchdog is run
off the system clock and the other is run off the Precision Internal Oscillator (PIOSC). Each module
operates in the same manner except that because the PIOSC watchdog timer module is in a different
clock domain, register accesses must have a time delay between them. The watchdog timer can
be configured to generate an interrupt to the microcontroller on its first time-out and to generate a
reset on its second time-out.
After the watchdog's first time-out event, the 32-bit watchdog counter is reloaded with the value of
the Watchdog Timer Load (WDTLOAD) register and resumes counting down from that value. If
the timer counts down to zero again before the first time-out interrupt is cleared, and the reset signal
has been enabled, the watchdog timer asserts its reset signal to the microcontroller. The watchdog
timer reset sequence is as follows:
1. The watchdog timer times out for the second time without being serviced.
2. An internal reset is asserted.
3. The internal reset is released and the microcontroller loads from memory the initial stack pointer,
the initial program counter, and the first instruction designated by the program counter, and
then begins execution.
For more information on the Watchdog Timer module, see “Watchdog Timers” on page 572.

The watchdog reset timing is shown in Figure 21-9 on page 891.
5.2.3
Non-Maskable Interrupt
The microcontroller has three sources of non-maskable interrupt (NMI):
■ The assertion of the NMI signal
■ A main oscillator verification error
■ The NMISET bit in the Interrupt Control and State (INTCTRL) register in the Cortex™-M3 (see
page 133).
Software must check the cause of the interrupt in order to distinguish among the sources.
5.2.3.1
NMI Pin
The NMI signal is the alternate function for GPIO port pin PB7. The alternate function must be
enabled in the GPIO for the signal to be used as an interrupt, as described in “General-Purpose
Input/Outputs (GPIOs)” on page 396. Note that enabling the NMI alternate function requires the use
of the GPIO lock and commit function just like the GPIO port pins associated with JTAG/SWD
functionality, see page 434. The active sense of the NMI signal is High; asserting the enabled NMI
signal above VIH initiates the NMI interrupt sequence.
5.2.3.2
Main Oscillator Verification Failure
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller provides a main oscillator verification circuit that generates an error
condition if the oscillator is running too fast or too slow. If the main oscillator verification circuit is
enabled and a failure occurs, a power-on reset is generated and control is transferred to the NMI
handler. The NMI handler is used to address the main oscillator verification failure because the
necessary code can be removed from the general reset handler, speeding up reset processing. The
detection circuit is enabled by setting the CVAL bit in the Main Oscillator Control (MOSCCTL)
register. The main oscillator verification error is indicated in the main oscillator fail status (MOSCFAIL)
bit in the Reset Cause (RESC) register. The main oscillator verification circuit action is described
in more detail in “Main Oscillator Verification Circuit” on page 194.

The Stellaris microcontroller provides an integrated LDO regulator that is used to provide power
to the majority of the microcontroller's internal logic. Figure 5-4 shows the power architecture.
An external LDO may not be used.
Note:
VDDA must be supplied with a voltage that meets the specification in Table 21-2 on page 886,
or the microcontroller does not function properly. VDDA is the supply for all of the analog
circuitry on the device, including the clock circuitry.

Clock Control
System control determines the control of clocks in this part.
5.2.5.1
Fundamental Clock Sources
There are multiple clock sources for use in the microcontroller:
■ Precision Internal Oscillator (PIOSC). The precision internal oscillator is an on-chip clock
source that is the clock source the microcontroller uses during and following POR. It does not
require the use of any external components and provides a clock that is 16 MHz ±1% at room
temperature and ±3% across temperature. The PIOSC allows for a reduced system cost in
applications that require an accurate clock source. If the main oscillator is required, software
must enable the main oscillator following reset and allow the main oscillator to stabilize before
changing the clock reference. If the Hibernation Module clock source is a 32.768-kHz oscillator,
the precision internal oscillator can be trimmed by software based on a reference clock for
increased accuracy.
■ Main Oscillator (MOSC). The main oscillator provides a frequency-accurate clock source by
one of two means: an external single-ended clock source is connected to the OSC0 input pin, or
an external crystal is connected across the OSC0 input and OSC1 output pins. If the PLL is being
used, the crystal value must be one of the supported frequencies between 3.579545 MHz to
January 21, 2012
187
Texas Instruments-Production Data
System Control
16.384 MHz (inclusive). If the PLL is not being used, the crystal may be any one of the supported
frequencies between 1 MHz to 16.384 MHz. The single-ended clock source range is from DC
through the specified speed of the microcontroller. The supported crystals are listed in the XTAL
bit field in the RCC register (see page 210).
■ Internal 30-kHz Oscillator. The internal 30-kHz oscillator provides an operational frequency of
30 kHz ± 50%. It is intended for use during Deep-Sleep power-saving modes. This power-savings
mode benefits from reduced internal switching and also allows the MOSC to be powered down.
■ Hibernation Module Clock Source. The Hibernation module can be clocked in one of two ways.
The first way is a 4.194304-MHz crystal connected to the XOSC0 and XOSC1 pins. This clock
signal is divided by 128 internally to produce the 32.768-kHz clock reference. The second way
is a 32.768-kHz oscillator connected to the XOSC0 pin. The 32.768-kHz oscillator can be used
for the system clock, thus eliminating the need for an additional crystal or oscillator. The
Hibernation module clock source is intended to provide the system with a real-time clock source
and may also provide an accurate source of Deep-Sleep or Hibernate mode power savings.
The internal system clock (SysClk), is derived from any of the above sources plus two others: the
output of the main internal PLL and the precision internal oscillator divided by four (4 MHz ± 1%).
The frequency of the PLL clock reference must be in the range of 3.579545 MHz to 16.384 MHz
(inclusive). Table 5-4 on page 188 shows how the various clock sources can be used in a system.

Clock Configuration
The Run-Mode Clock Configuration (RCC) and Run-Mode Clock Configuration 2 (RCC2)
registers provide control for the system clock. The RCC2 register is provided to extend fields that
offer additional encodings over the RCC register. When used, the RCC2 register field values are
used by the logic over the corresponding field in the RCC register. In particular, RCC2 provides for
a larger assortment of clock configuration options. These registers control the following clock
functionality:
■ Source of clocks in sleep and deep-sleep modes
■ System clock derived from PLL or other clock source
■ Enabling/disabling of oscillators and PLL
■ Clock divisors
188

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
■ Crystal input selection
Important: Write the RCC register prior to writing the RCC2 register. If a subsequent write to the
RCC register is required, include another register access after writing the RCC register
and before writing the RCC2 register.
Figure 5-5 shows the logic for the main clock tree. The peripheral blocks are driven by the system
clock signal and can be individually enabled/disabled. When the PLL is enabled, the ADC clock
signal is automatically divided down to 16 MHz from the PLL output for proper ADC operation.
Note:
When the ADC module is in operation, the system clock must be at least 16 MHz.

Using the SYSDIV and SYSDIV2 Fields
In the RCC register, the SYSDIV field specifies which divisor is used to generate the system clock
from either the PLL output or the oscillator source (depending on how the BYPASS bit in this register

is configured). When using the PLL, the VCO frequency of 400 MHz is predivided by 2 before the
divisor is applied. Table 5-5 shows how the SYSDIV encoding affects the system clock frequency,
depending on whether the PLL is used (BYPASS=0) or another clock source is used (BYPASS=1).
The divisor is equivalent to the SYSDIV encoding plus 1. For a list of possible clock sources, see
Table 5-4 on page 188.

The SYSDIV2 field in the RCC2 register is 2 bits wider than the SYSDIV field in the RCC register
so that additional larger divisors up to /64 are possible, allowing a lower system clock frequency for
improved Deep Sleep power consumption. When using the PLL, the VCO frequency of 400 MHz is
predivided by 2 before the divisor is applied. The divisor is equivalent to the SYSDIV2 encoding
plus 1. Table 5-6 shows how the SYSDIV2 encoding affects the system clock frequency, depending

5.2.5.3
Precision Internal Oscillator Operation (PIOSC)
The microcontroller powers up with the PIOSC running. If another clock source is desired, the PIOSC
must remain enabled as it is used for internal functions. The PIOSC can only be disabled during
Deep-Sleep mode. It can be powered down by setting the IOSCDIS bit in the RCC register.
The PIOSC generates a 16-MHz clock with a ±1% accuracy at room temperatures. Across the
extended temperature range, the accuracy is ±3%. At the factory, the PIOSC is set to 16 MHz at
room temperature, however, the frequency can be trimmed for other voltage or temperature conditions
using software in one of three ways:
■ Default calibration: clear the UTEN bit and set the UPDATE bit in the Precision Internal Oscillator
Calibration (PIOSCCAL) register.
■ User-defined calibration: The user can program the UT value to adjust the PIOSC frequency. As
the UT value increases, the generated period increases. To commit a new UT value, first set the
192
January 21, 2012

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
UTEN bit, then program the UT field, and then set the UPDATE bit. The adjustment finishes within
a few clock periods and is glitch free.
■ Automatic calibration using the Hibernation module with a functioning 32.768-kHz clock source:
Set the CAL bit in the PIOSCCAL register; the results of the calibration are shown in the RESULT
field in the Precision Internal Oscillator Statistic (PIOSCSTAT) register. After calibration is
complete, the PIOSC is trimmed using the trimmed value returned in the CT field.
5.2.5.4
Crystal Configuration for the Main Oscillator (MOSC)
The main oscillator supports the use of a select number of crystals. If the main oscillator is used by
the PLL as a reference clock, the supported range of crystals is 3.579545 to 16.384 MHz, otherwise,
the range of supported crystals is 1 to 16.384 MHz.
The XTAL bit in the RCC register (see page 210) describes the available crystal choices and default
programming values.
Software configures the RCC register XTAL field with the crystal number. If the PLL is used in the
design, the XTAL field value is internally translated to the PLL settings.
5.2.5.5
Main PLL Frequency Configuration
The main PLL is disabled by default during power-on reset and is enabled later by software if
required. Software specifies the output divisor to set the system clock frequency and enables the
main PLL to drive the output. The PLL operates at 400 MHz, but is divided by two prior to the
application of the output divisor, unless the DIV400 bit in the RCC2 register is set.
To configure the PIOSC to be the clock source for the main PLL, program the OSCRC2 field in the
Run-Mode Clock Configuration 2 (RCC2) register to be 0x1.
If the main oscillator provides the clock reference to the main PLL, the translation provided by
hardware and used to program the PLL is available for software in the XTAL to PLL Translation
(PLLCFG) register (see page 214). The internal translation provides a translation within ± 1% of the
targeted PLL VCO frequency. Table 21-8 on page 892 shows the actual PLL frequency and error for
a given crystal choice.
The Crystal Value field (XTAL) in the Run-Mode Clock Configuration (RCC) register (see page 210)
describes the available crystal choices and default programming of the PLLCFG register. Any time
the XTAL field changes, the new settings are translated and the internal PLL settings are updated.
5.2.5.6
PLL Modes
■ Normal: The PLL multiplies the input clock reference and drives the output.
■ Power-Down: Most of the PLL internal circuitry is disabled and the PLL does not drive the output.
The modes are programmed using the RCC/RCC2 register fields (see page 210 and page 217).
5.2.5.7
PLL Operation
If a PLL configuration is changed, the PLL output frequency is unstable until it reconverges (relocks)
to the new setting. The time between the configuration change and relock is TREADY (see Table
21-7 on page 891). During the relock time, the affected PLL is not usable as a clock reference.
The PLL is changed by one of the following:
■ Change to the XTAL value in the RCC register—writes of the same value do not cause a relock.
January 21, 2012
193
Texas Instruments-Production Data
System Control
■ Change in the PLL from Power-Down to Normal mode.
A counter clocked by the system clock is used to measure the TREADY requirement. If the system
clock is the main oscillator and it is running off an 8.192 MHz or slower external oscillator clock, the
down counter is set to 0x1200 (that is, ~600 μs at an 8.192 MHz). If the system clock is running off
the PIOSC or an external oscillator clock that is faster than 8.192 MHz, the down counter is set to
0x2400. Hardware is provided to keep the PLL from being used as a system clock until the TREADY
condition is met after one of the two changes above. It is the user's responsibility to have a stable
clock source (like the main oscillator) before the RCC/RCC2 register is switched to use the PLL.
If the main PLL is enabled and the system clock is switched to use the PLL in one step, the system
control hardware continues to clock the microcontroller from the oscillator selected by the RCC/RCC2
register until the main PLL is stable (TREADY time met), after which it changes to the PLL. Software
can use many methods to ensure that the system is clocked from the main PLL, including periodically
polling the PLLLRIS bit in the Raw Interrupt Status (RIS) register, and enabling the PLL Lock
interrupt.
5.2.5.8
Main Oscillator Verification Circuit
The clock control includes circuitry to ensure that the main oscillator is running at the appropriate
frequency. The circuit monitors the main oscillator frequency and signals if the frequency is outside
of the allowable band of attached crystals.
The detection circuit is enabled using the CVAL bit in the Main Oscillator Control (MOSCCTL)
register. If this circuit is enabled and detects an error, the following sequence is performed by the
hardware:
1. The MOSCFAIL bit in the Reset Cause (RESC) register is set.
2. If the internal oscillator (PIOSC) is disabled, it is enabled.
3. The system clock is switched from the main oscillator to the PIOSC.
4. An internal power-on reset is initiated that lasts for 32 PIOSC periods.
5. Reset is de-asserted and the processor is directed to the NMI handler during the reset sequence.
5.2.6
System Control
For power-savings purposes, the RCGCn, SCGCn, and DCGCn registers control the clock gating
logic for each peripheral or block in the system while the microcontroller is in Run, Sleep, and
Deep-Sleep mode, respectively. These registers are located in the System Control register map
starting at offsets 0x600, 0x700, and 0x800, respectively. There must be a delay of 3 system clocks
after a peripheral module clock is enabled in the RCGC register before any module registers are
accessed.
There are four levels of operation for the microcontroller defined as:
■ Run mode
■ Sleep mode
■ Deep-Sleep mode
■ Hibernate mode
The following sections describe the different modes in detail.

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
Caution – If the Cortex-M3 Debug Access Port (DAP) has been enabled, and the device wakes from a
low power sleep or deep-sleep mode, the core may start executing code before all clocks to peripherals
have been restored to their Run mode configuration. The DAP is usually enabled by software tools
accessing the JTAG or SWD interface when debugging or flash programming. If this condition occurs,
a Hard Fault is triggered when software accesses a peripheral with an invalid clock.
A software delay loop can be used at the beginning of the interrupt routine that is used to wake up a
system from a WFI (Wait For Interrupt) instruction. This stalls the execution of any code that accesses
a peripheral register that might cause a fault. This loop can be removed for production software as the
DAP is most likely not enabled during normal execution.
Because the DAP is disabled by default (power on reset), the user can also power cycle the device. The
DAP is not enabled unless it is enabled through the JTAG or SWD interface.
5.2.6.1
Run Mode
In Run mode, the microcontroller actively executes code. Run mode provides normal operation of
the processor and all of the peripherals that are currently enabled by the RCGCn registers. The
system clock can be any of the available clock sources including the PLL.
5.2.6.2
Sleep Mode
In Sleep mode, the clock frequency of the active peripherals is unchanged, but the processor and
the memory subsystem are not clocked and therefore no longer execute code. Sleep mode is entered
by the Cortex-M3 core executing a WFI (Wait for Interrupt) instruction. Any properly configured
interrupt event in the system brings the processor back into Run mode. See “Power
Management” on page 97 for more details.
Peripherals are clocked that are enabled in the SCGCn registers when auto-clock gating is enabled
(see the RCC register) or the RCGCn registers when the auto-clock gating is disabled. The system
clock has the same source and frequency as that during Run mode.
5.2.6.3
Deep-Sleep Mode
In Deep-Sleep mode, the clock frequency of the active peripherals may change (depending on the
Run mode clock configuration) in addition to the processor clock being stopped. An interrupt returns
the microcontroller to Run mode from one of the sleep modes; the sleep modes are entered on
request from the code. Deep-Sleep mode is entered by first setting the SLEEPDEEP bit in the System
Control (SYSCTRL) register (see page 139) and then executing a WFI instruction. Any properly
configured interrupt event in the system brings the processor back into Run mode. See “Power
Management” on page 97 for more details.
The Cortex-M3 processor core and the memory subsystem are not clocked in Deep-Sleep mode.
Peripherals are clocked that are enabled in the DCGCn registers when auto-clock gating is enabled
(see the RCC register) or the RCGCn registers when auto-clock gating is disabled. The system
clock source is specified in the DSLPCLKCFG register. When the DSLPCLKCFG register is used,
the internal oscillator source is powered up, if necessary, and other clocks are powered down. If
the PLL is running at the time of the WFI instruction, hardware powers the PLL down and overrides
the SYSDIV field of the active RCC/RCC2 register, to be determined by the DSDIVORIDE setting
in the DSLPCLKCFG register, up to /16 or /64 respectively. When the Deep-Sleep exit event occurs,
hardware brings the system clock back to the source and frequency it had at the onset of Deep-Sleep
mode before enabling the clocks that had been stopped during the Deep-Sleep duration. If the
PIOSC is used as the PLL reference clock source, it may continue to provide the clock during
Deep-Sleep. See page 221.

5.2.6.4
Hibernate Mode
In this mode, the power supplies are turned off to the main part of the microcontroller and only the
Hibernation module's circuitry is active. An external wake event or RTC event is required to bring
the microcontroller back to Run mode. The Cortex-M3 processor and peripherals outside of the
Hibernation module see a normal "power on" sequence and the processor starts running code.
Software can determine if the microcontroller has been restarted from Hibernate mode by inspecting
the Hibernation module registers. For more information on the operation of Hibernate mode, see
“Hibernation Module” on page 274.
5.3
Initialization and Configuration
The PLL is configured using direct register writes to the RCC/RCC2 register. If the RCC2 register
is being used, the USERCC2 bit must be set and the appropriate RCC2 bit/field is used. The steps
required to successfully change the PLL-based system clock are:
1. Bypass the PLL and system clock divider by setting the BYPASS bit and clearing the USESYS
bit in the RCC register, thereby configuring the microcontroller to run off a "raw" clock source
and allowing for the new PLL configuration to be validated before switching the system clock
to the PLL.
2. Select the crystal value (XTAL) and oscillator source (OSCSRC), and clear the PWRDN bit in
RCC/RCC2. Setting the XTAL field automatically pulls valid PLL configuration data for the
appropriate crystal, and clearing the PWRDN bit powers and enables the PLL and its output.
3. Select the desired system divider (SYSDIV) in RCC/RCC2 and set the USESYS bit in RCC. The
SYSDIV field determines the system frequency for the microcontroller.
4. Wait for the PLL to lock by polling the PLLLRIS bit in the Raw Interrupt Status (RIS) register.
5. Enable use of the PLL by clearing the BYPASS bit in RCC/RCC2.

Register 9: GPIO High-Performance Bus Control (GPIOHBCTL), offset 0x06C
This register controls which internal bus is used to access each GPIO port. When a bit is clear, the
corresponding GPIO port is accessed across the legacy Advanced Peripheral Bus (APB) bus and
through the APB memory aperture. When a bit is set, the corresponding port is accessed across
the Advanced High-Performance Bus (AHB) bus and through the AHB memory aperture. Each
GPIO port can be individually configured to use AHB or APB, but may be accessed only through
one aperture. The AHB bus provides better back-to-back access performance than the APB bus.
The address aperture in the memory map changes for the ports that are enabled for AHB access
(see Table 9-7 on page 407).

compatibility with future products, the value of a reserved bit should be
preserved across a read-modify-write operation.
Divider Field Override
If Deep-Sleep mode is enabled when the PLL is running, the PLL is
disabled. This 6-bit field contains a system divider field that overrides
the SYSDIV field in the RCC register or the SYSDIV2 field in the RCC2
register during Deep Sleep. This divider is applied to the source selected
by the DSOSCSRC field.

This register is predefined by the part and can be used to verify uDMA channel features. A 1 indicates
the channel is available on this device; a 0 that the channel is only available on other devices in the
family. Most channels have primary and secondary assignments. If the primary function is not
available on this microcontroller, the secondary function becomes the primary function. If the
secondary function is not available, the primary function is the only option.

Register 27: Run Mode Clock Gating Control Register 0 (RCGC0), offset 0x100
This register controls the clock gating logic in normal Run mode. Each bit controls a clock enable
for a given interface, function, or module. If set, the module receives a clock and functions. Otherwise,
the module is unclocked and disabled (saving power). If the module is unclocked, reads or writes
to the module generate a bus fault. The reset state of these bits is 0 (unclocked) unless otherwise
noted, so that all functional modules are disabled. It is the responsibility of software to enable the
ports necessary for the application. Note that these registers may contain more bits than there are
interfaces, functions, or modules to control. This configuration is implemented to assure reasonable
code compatibility with other family and future parts. RCGC0 is the clock configuration register for
running operation, SCGC0 for Sleep operation, and DCGC0 for Deep-Sleep operation. Setting the
ACG bit in the Run-Mode Clock Configuration (RCC) register specifies that the system uses sleep

Register 31: Sleep Mode Clock Gating Control Register 1 (SCGC1), offset
0x114
This register controls the clock gating logic in Sleep mode. Each bit controls a clock enable for a
given interface, function, or module. If set, the module receives a clock and functions. Otherwise,
the module is unclocked and disabled (saving power). If the module is unclocked, reads or writes
to the module generate a bus fault. The reset state of these bits is 0 (unclocked) unless otherwise
noted, so that all functional modules are disabled. It is the responsibility of software to enable the
ports necessary for the application. Note that these registers may contain more bits than there are
interfaces, functions, or modules to control. This configuration is implemented to assure reasonable
code compatibility with other family and future parts. RCGC1 is the clock configuration register for
running operation, SCGC1 for Sleep operation, and DCGC1 for Deep-Sleep operation. Setting the
ACG bit in the Run-Mode Clock Configuration (RCC) register specifies that the system uses sleep
modes.

Register 34: Sleep Mode Clock Gating Control Register 2 (SCGC2), offset
0x118
This register controls the clock gating logic in Sleep mode. Each bit controls a clock enable for a
given interface, function, or module. If set, the module receives a clock and functions. Otherwise,
the module is unclocked and disabled (saving power). If the module is unclocked, reads or writes
to the module generate a bus fault. The reset state of these bits is 0 (unclocked) unless otherwise
noted, so that all functional modules are disabled. It is the responsibility of software to enable the
ports necessary for the application. Note that these registers may contain more bits than there are
interfaces, functions, or modules to control. This configuration is implemented to assure reasonable
code compatibility with other family and future parts. RCGC2 is the clock configuration register for
running operation, SCGC2 for Sleep operation, and DCGC2 for Deep-Sleep operation. Setting the
ACG bit in the Run-Mode Clock Configuration (RCC) register specifies that the system uses sleep
modes.

Hibernation Module
The Hibernation Module manages removal and restoration of power to provide a means for reducing
power consumption. When the processor and peripherals are idle, power can be completely removed
with only the Hibernation module remaining powered. Power can be restored based on an external
signal or at a certain time using the built-in Real-Time Clock (RTC). The Hibernation module can
be independently supplied from a battery or an auxiliary power supply.
The Hibernation module has the following features:
■ 32-bit real-time counter (RTC)
– Two 32-bit RTC match registers for timed wake-up and interrupt generation
– RTC predivider trim for making fine adjustments to the clock rate
■ Two mechanisms for power control
– System power control using discrete external regulator
– On-chip power control using internal switches under register control
■ Dedicated pin for waking using an external signal
■ RTC operational and hibernation memory valid as long as VBAT is valid
■ Low-battery detection, signaling, and interrupt generation
■ Clock source from a 32.768-kHz external oscillator or a 4.194304-MHz crystal; 32.768-kHz
external oscillator can be used for main controller clock
■ 64 32-bit words of battery-backed memory to save state during hibernation
■ Programmable interrupts for RTC match, external wake, and low battery events

Functional Description
The Hibernation module provides two mechanisms for power control:
■ The first mechanism controls the power to the microcontroller with a control signal (HIB) that
signals an external voltage regulator to turn on or off.
■ The second mechanism uses internal switches to control power to the Cortex-M3 as well as to
most analog and digital functions while retaining I/O pin power (VDD3ON mode).
The Hibernation module power source is determined dynamically. The supply voltage of the
Hibernation module is the larger of the main voltage source (VDD) or the battery/auxilliary voltage
source (VBAT). The Hibernation module also has an independent clock source to maintain a real-time
clock (RTC) when the system clock is powered down.
Once in hibernation, the module signals an external voltage regulator to turn the power back on
when an external pin (WAKE) is asserted or when the internal RTC reaches a certain value. The
Hibernation module can also detect when the battery voltage is low and optionally prevent hibernation
when this occurs.
When waking from hibernation, the HIB signal is deasserted. The return of VDD causes a POR to
be executed. The time from when the WAKE signal is asserted to when code begins execution is
equal to the wake-up time (tWAKE_TO_HIB) plus the power-on reset time (TIRPOR).
6.3.1
Register Access Timing
Because the Hibernation module has an independent clocking domain, certain registers must be
written only with a timing gap between accesses. The delay time is tHIB_REG_ACCESS, therefore
software must guarantee that this delay is inserted between back-to-back writes to certain Hibernation
registers or between a write followed by a read to those same registers. Software may make use
of the WRC bit in the Hibernation Control (HIBCTL) register to ensure that the required timing gap
has elapsed. This bit is cleared on a write operation and set once the write completes, indicating to
software that another write or read may be started safely. Software should poll HIBCTL for WRC=1
prior to accessing any affected register. The following registers are subject to this timing restriction:

■ Hibernation RTC Match 1 (HIBRTCM1)
■ Hibernation RTC Load (HIBRTCLD)
■ Hibernation RTC Trim (HIBRTCT)
■ Hibernation Data (HIBDATA)
Back-to-back reads from Hibernation module registers have no timing restrictions. Reads are
performed at the full peripheral clock rate.
6.3.2
Hibernation Clock Source
In systems where the Hibernation module is used to put the microcontroller into hibernation, the
module must be clocked by an external source that is independent from the main system clock,
even if the RTC feature is not used. An external oscillator or crystal is used for this purpose. To use
a crystal, a 4.194304-MHz crystal is connected to the XOSC0 and XOSC1 pins. This clock signal is
divided by 128 internally to produce a 32.768-kHz Hibernation clock reference. Alternatively, a
32.768-kHz oscillator can be connected to the XOSC0 pin, leaving XOSC1 unconnected. Care must
be taken that the voltage amplitude of the 32.768-kHz oscillator is less than VBAT, otherwise, the
Hibernation module may draw power from the oscillator and not VBAT during hibernation. See Figure
6-2 on page 278 and Figure 6-3 on page 278.
The Hibernation clock source is enabled by setting the CLK32EN bit of the HIBCTL register. The
type of clock source is selected by clearing the CLKSEL bit for a 4.194304-MHz crystal and setting
the CLKSEL bit for a 32.768-kHz oscillator. If a crystal is used for the clock source, the software
must leave a delay of tHIBOSC_START after writing to the CLK32EN bit and before any other accesses
to the Hibernation module registers. The delay allows the crystal to power up and stabilize. If an
oscillator is used for the clock source, no delay is needed.

System Implementation
Several different system configurations are possible when using the Hibernation module:
■ Using a single battery source, where the battery provides both VDD and VBAT.
278
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
■ Using the VDD3ON mode, where VDD continues to be powered in hibernation, allowing the GPIO
pins to retain their states, as shown in Figure 6-3 on page 278. In this mode, VDDC is powered off
internally.
■ Using separate sources for VDD and VBAT, as shown in Figure 6-2 on page 278.
■ Using a regulator to provide both VDD and VBAT with a switch enabled by HIB to remove VDD
during hibernation.
Adding external capacitance to the VBAT supply reduces the accuracy of the low-battery measurement
and should be avoided if possible. The diagrams referenced in this section only show the connection
to the Hibernation pins and not to the full system.
If the application does not require the use of the Hibernation module, refer to “Connections for
Unused Signals” on page 883. In this situation, the HIB bit in the Run Mode Clock Gating Control
Register 0 (RCGC0) register must be cleared, disabling the system clock to the Hibernation module
and Hibernation module registers are not accessible.
6.3.4
Battery Management
Important: System-level factors may affect the accuracy of the low battery detect circuit. The
designer should consider battery type, discharge characteristics, and a test load during
battery voltage measurements.
The Hibernation module can be independently powered by a battery or an auxiliary power source
using the VBAT pin. The module can monitor the voltage level of the battery and detect when the
voltage drops below VLOWBAT. The module can also be configured so that it does not go into Hibernate
mode if the battery voltage drops below this threshold. Battery voltage is not measured while in
Hibernate mode.
The Hibernation module can be configured to detect a low battery condition by setting the LOWBATEN
bit of the HIBCTL register. In this configuration, the LOWBAT bit of the Hibernation Raw Interrupt
Status (HIBRIS) register is set when the battery level is low. If the VABORT bit in the HIBCTL register
is also set, then the module is prevented from entering Hibernate mode when a low battery is
detected. The module can also be configured to generate an interrupt for the low-battery condition
(see “Interrupts and Status” on page 281).
Note that the Hibernation module draws power from whichever source (VBAT or VDD) has the higher
voltage. Therefore, it is important to design the circuit to ensure that VDD is higher that VBAT under
nominal conditions or else the Hibernation module draws power from the battery even when VDD is
available.
6.3.5
Real-Time Clock
The Hibernation module includes a 32-bit counter that increments once per second with the proper
configuration (see “Hibernation Clock Source” on page 277). The 32.768-kHz clock signal, either
directly from the 32.768-kHz oscillator or from the 4.194304-MHz crystal divided by 128, is fed into
a predivider register that counts down the 32.768-kHz clock ticks to achieve a once per second
clock rate for the RTC. The rate can be adjusted to compensate for inaccuracies in the clock source
by using the predivider trim register, HIBRTCT. This register has a nominal value of 0x7FFF, and
is used for one second out of every 64 seconds to divide the input clock. This configuration allows
the software to make fine corrections to the clock rate by adjusting the predivider trim register up
or down from 0x7FFF. The predivider trim should be adjusted up from 0x7FFF in order to slow down
the RTC rate and down from 0x7FFF in order to speed up the RTC rate.
January 21, 2012
279
Texas Instruments-Production Data
Hibernation Module
The Hibernation module includes two 32-bit match registers that are compared to the value of the
RTC counter. The match registers can be used to wake the processor from Hibernate mode or to
generate an interrupt to the processor if it is not in hibernation.
The RTC must be enabled with the RTCEN bit of the HIBCTL register. The value of the RTC can be
set at any time by writing to the HIBRTCLD register. The predivider trim can be adjusted by reading
and writing the HIBRTCT register. The predivider uses this register once every 64 seconds to adjust
the clock rate. The two match registers can be set by writing to the HIBRTCM0 and HIBRTCM1
registers. The RTC can be configured to generate interrupts by using the interrupt registers (see
“Interrupts and Status” on page 281). As long as the RTC is enabled and a valid VBAT is present, the
RTC continues counting, regardless of whether VDD is present or if the part is in hibernation.
6.3.6
Battery-Backed Memory
The Hibernation module contains 64 32-bit words of memory that are powered from the battery or
auxiliary power supply and therefore retained during hibernation. The processor software can save
state information in this memory prior to hibernation and recover the state upon waking. The
battery-backed memory can be accessed through the HIBDATA registers. If both VDD and VBAT are
removed, the contents of the HIBDATA registers are not retained.
6.3.7
Power Control Using HIB
Important: The Hibernation Module requires special system implementation considerations when
using HIB to control power, as it is intended to power-down all other sections of the
microcontroller. All system signals and power supplies that connect to the chip must
be driven to 0 VDC or powered down with the same regulator controlled by HIB.
The Hibernation module controls power to the microcontroller through the use of the HIB pin which
is intended to be connected to the enable signal of the external regulator(s) providing 3.3 V to the
microcontroller and other circuits. When the HIB signal is asserted by the Hibernation module, the
external regulator is turned off and no longer powers the microcontroller and any parts of the system
that are powered by the regulator. The Hibernation module remains powered from the VBAT supply
(which could be a battery or an auxiliary power source) until a Wake event. Power to the
microcontroller is restored by deasserting the HIB signal, which causes the external regulator to
turn power back on to the chip.
6.3.8
Power Control Using VDD3ON Mode
The Hibernation module may also be configured to cut power to all internal modules. While in this
state, all pins are configured as inputs. In the VDD3ON mode, the regulator should maintain 3.3 V
power to the microcontroller during Hibernate. This power control mode is enabled by setting the
VDD3ON bit in HIBCTL.
6.3.9
Initiating Hibernate
Hibernate mode is initiated when the HIBREQ bit of the HIBCTL register is set. If a wake-up condition
has not been configured using the PINWEN or RTCWEN bits in the HIBCTL register, the hibernation
request is ignored. If a Flash memory write operation is in progress when the HIBREQ bit is set, an
interlock feature holds off the transition into Hibernate mode until the write has completed.
6.3.10
Waking from Hibernate
The Hibernation module is configured to wake from the external WAKE pin by setting the PINWEN
bit of the HIBCTL register. It is configured to wake from RTC match by setting the RTCWEN bit. Note
that the WAKE pin uses the Hibernation module's internal power supply as the logic 1 reference.
280
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
Upon either external wake-up or RTC match, the Hibernation module delays coming out of hibernation
until VDD is above the minimum specified voltage, see Table 21-2 on page 886.
When the Hibernation module wakes, the microcontroller performs a normal power-on reset. Note
that this reset does not reset the Hibernation module, but does reset the rest of the microcontroller.
Software can detect that the power-on was due to a wake from hibernation by examining the raw
interrupt status register (see “Interrupts and Status” on page 281) and by looking for state data in
the battery-backed memory (see “Battery-Backed Memory” on page 280).
6.3.11
Interrupts and Status
The Hibernation module can generate interrupts when the following conditions occur:
■ Assertion of WAKE pin
■ RTC match
■ Low battery detected
All of the interrupts are ORed together before being sent to the interrupt controller, so the Hibernate
module can only generate a single interrupt request to the controller at any given time. The software
interrupt handler can service multiple interrupt events by reading the Hibernation Masked Interrupt
Status (HIBMIS) register. Software can also read the status of the Hibernation module at any time
by reading the HIBRIS register which shows all of the pending events. This register can be used
after waking from hibernation to see if the wake condition was caused by the WAKE signal or the
RTC match.
The events that can trigger an interrupt are configured by setting the appropriate bits in the
Hibernation Interrupt Mask (HIBIM) register. Pending interrupts can be cleared by writing the
corresponding bit in the Hibernation Interrupt Clear (HIBIC) register.
6.4
Initialization and Configuration
The Hibernation module has several different configurations. The following sections show the
recommended programming sequence for various scenarios. The examples below assume that a
32.768-kHz oscillator is used, and thus always set the CLKSEL bit of the HIBCTL register. If a
4.194304-MHz crystal is used instead, then the CLKSEL bit remains cleared. Because the Hibernation
module runs at 32.768 kHz and is asynchronous to the rest of the microcontroller, which is run off
the system clock, software must allow a delay of tHIB_REG_ACCESS after writes to certain registers
(see “Register Access Timing” on page 276). The registers that require a delay are listed in a note
in “Register Map” on page 283 as well as in each register description.
6.4.1
Initialization
The Hibernation module comes out of reset with the system clock enabled to the module, but if the
system clock to the module has been disabled, then it must be re-enabled, even if the RTC feature
is not used. See page 246.
If a 4.194304-MHz crystal is used as the Hibernation module clock source, perform the following
step:
1. Write 0x40 to the HIBCTL register at offset 0x10 to enable the crystal and select the divide-by-128
input path.
If a 32.678-kHz single-ended oscillator is used as the Hibernation module clock source, then perform
the following steps:
January 21, 2012
281
Texas Instruments-Production Data
Hibernation Module
1. Write 0x44 to the HIBCTL register at offset 0x10 to enable the oscillator input and bypass the
on-chip oscillator.
2. No delay is necessary.
The above steps are only necessary when the entire system is initialized for the first time. If the
microcontroller has been in hibernation, then the Hibernation module has already been powered
up and the above steps are not necessary. The software can detect that the Hibernation module
and clock are already powered by examining the CLK32EN bit of the HIBCTL register.
Table 6-3 on page 282 illustrates how the clocks function with various bit setting both in normal
operation and in hibernation.

wake-up source for the microcontroller:
1. Write any data to be retained during power cut to the HIBDATA register at offsets 0x030-0x12C.
2. Enable the external wake and start the hibernation sequence by writing 0x0000.0056 to the
HIBCTL register at offset 0x010.
Note that in this mode, if the RTC is disabled, then the Hibernation clock source is powered down
during Hibernate mode and is powered up again on the external wake event to save power during
hibernation. If the RTC is enabled before hibernation, it continues to operate during hibernation.
6.4.5
RTC or External Wake-Up from Hibernation
1. Write the required RTC match value to the HIBRTCMn registers at offset 0x004 or 0x008.
2. Write the required RTC load value to the HIBRTCLD register at offset 0x00C.
3. Write any data to be retained during power cut to the HIBDATA register at offsets 0x030-0x12C.
4. Set the RTC Match/External Wake-Up and start the hibernation sequence by writing 0x0000.005F
to the HIBCTL register at offset 0x010.
6.5
Register Map
Table 6-4 on page 284 lists the Hibernation registers. All addresses given are relative to the Hibernation
Module base address at 0x400F.C000. Note that the system clock to the Hibernation module must
be enabled before the registers can be programmed (see page 246). There must be a delay of 3
system clocks after the Hibernation module clock is enabled before any Hibernation module registers
are accessed.
Note:
HIBRTCC, HIBRTCM0, HIBRTCM1, HIBRTCLD, HIBRTCT, and HIBDATA are on the
Hibernation module clock domain and have special timing requirements. Software should
make use of the WRC bit in the HIBCTL register to ensure that the required timing gap has
elapsed. If the WRC bit is clear, any attempted write access is ignored. See “Register Access
Timing” on page 276.
Important: The Hibernation module registers are reset under two conditions:
1. A system reset when the RTCEN and the PINWEN bits in the HIBCTL register are
both cleared.
2. A cold POR, when both the VDD and VBAT supplies are removed.
Any other reset condition is ignored by the Hibernation module.

Write Complete/Capable
Value Description
0
The interface is processing a prior write and is busy. Any write
operation that is attempted while WRC is 0 results in
undetermined behavior.
1
The interface is ready to accept a write.
Software must poll this bit between write requests and defer writes until
WRC=1 to ensure proper operation.
The bit name WRC means "Write Complete," which is the normal use of
the bit (between write accesses). However, because the bit is set
out-of-reset, the name can also mean "Write Capable" which simply
indicates that the interface may be written to by software. This difference
may be exploited by software at reset time to detect which method of
programming is appropriate: 0 = software delay loops required; 1 = WRC
paced available.

VDD Powered
Value Description
1
The internal switches control the power to the on-chip modules
(VDD3ON mode).
0
The internal switches are not used. The HIB signal should be
used to control an external switch or regulator.
Note that regardless of the status of the VDD3ON bit, the HIB signal is
asserted during Hibernate mode. Thus, when VDD3ON is set, the HIB
signal should not be connected to the 3.3V regulator, and the 3.3V power
source should remain connected.

Internal Memory
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller comes with 96 KB of bit-banded SRAM, internal ROM,and 256 KB
of Flash memory. The Flash memory controller provides a user-friendly interface, making Flash
memory programming a simple task. Flash memory protection can be applied to the Flash memory
on a 2-KB block basis.

Functional Description
This section describes the functionality of the SRAM, ROM, and Flash memories.
Note:
The μDMA controller can transfer data to and from the on-chip SRAM. However, because
the Flash memory and ROM are located on a separate internal bus, it is not possible to
transfer data from the Flash memory or ROM with the μDMA controller.

Internal Memory
7.2.1
SRAM
®
The internal SRAM of the Stellaris devices is located at address 0x2000.0000 of the device memory
map. To reduce the number of time consuming read-modify-write (RMW) operations, ARM provides
bit-banding technology in the processor. With a bit-band-enabled processor, certain regions in the
memory map (SRAM and peripheral space) can use address aliases to access individual bits in a
single, atomic operation. The bit-band base is located at address 0x2200.0000.
The bit-band alias is calculated by using the formula:
bit-band alias = bit-band base + (byte offset * 32) + (bit number * 4)
For example, if bit 3 at address 0x2000.1000 is to be modified, the bit-band alias is calculated as:
0x2200.0000 + (0x1000 * 32) + (3 * 4) = 0x2202.000C
With the alias address calculated, an instruction performing a read/write to address 0x2202.000C
allows direct access to only bit 3 of the byte at address 0x2000.1000.
For details about bit-banding, see “Bit-Banding” on page 84.
Note:
7.2.2
The SRAM is implemented using two 32-bit wide SRAM banks (separate SRAM arrays).
The banks are partitioned such that one bank contains all even words (the even bank) and
the other contains all odd words (the odd bank). A write access that is followed immediately
by a read access to the same bank incurs a stall of a single clock cycle. However, a write
to one bank followed by a read of the other bank can occur in successive clock cycles
without incurring any delay.
ROM
The internal ROM of the Stellaris device is located at address 0x0100.0000 of the device memory
map. Detailed information on the ROM contents can be found in the Stellaris® ROM User’s Guide.
The ROM contains the following components:
■ Stellaris Boot Loader and vector table
■ Stellaris Peripheral Driver Library (DriverLib) release for product-specific peripherals and interfaces
■ Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cryptography tables
■ Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) error detection functionality
The boot loader is used as an initial program loader (when the Flash memory is empty) as well as
an application-initiated firmware upgrade mechanism (by calling back to the boot loader). The
Peripheral Driver Library APIs in ROM can be called by applications, reducing Flash memory
requirements and freeing the Flash memory to be used for other purposes (such as additional
features in the application). Advance Encryption Standard (AES) is a publicly defined encryption
standard used by the U.S. Government and Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) is a technique to
validate a span of data has the same contents as when previously checked.
7.2.2.1
Boot Loader Overview
The Stellaris Boot Loader is used to download code to the Flash memory of a device without the
use of a debug interface. When the core is reset, the user has the opportunity to direct the core to
execute the ROM Boot Loader or the application in Flash memory by using any GPIO signal in Ports
A-H as configured in the Boot Configuration (BOOTCFG) register.
302
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
At reset, the ROM is mapped over the Flash memory so that the ROM boot sequence is always
executed. The boot sequence executed from ROM is as follows:
1. The BA bit (below) is cleared such that ROM is mapped to 0x01xx.xxxx and Flash memory is
mapped to address 0x0.
2. The BOOTCFG register is read. If the EN bit is clear, the status of the specified GPIO pin is
compared with the specified polarity. If the status matches the specified polarity, the ROM is
mapped to address 0x0000.0000 and execution continues out of the ROM Boot Loader.
3. If the status doesn't match the specified polarity, the data at address 0x0000.0004 is read, and
if the data at this address is 0xFFFF.FFFF, the ROM is mapped to address 0x0000.0000 and
execution continues out of the ROM Boot Loader.
4. If there is data at address 0x0000.0004 that is not 0xFFFF.FFFF, the stack pointer (SP) is loaded
from Flash memory at address 0x0000.0000 and the program counter (PC) is loaded from
address 0x0000.0004. The user application begins executing.
The boot loader uses a simple packet interface to provide synchronous communication with the
device. The speed of the boot loader is determined by the internal oscillator (PIOSC) frequency as
it does not enable the PLL. The following serial interfaces can be used:
■ UART0
■ SSI0
■ I2C0
For simplicity, both the data format and communication protocol are identical for all serial interfaces.
See the Stellaris® Boot Loader User's Guide for information on the boot loader software.
7.2.2.2
Stellaris Peripheral Driver Library
The Stellaris Peripheral Driver Library contains a file called driverlib/rom.h that assists with
calling the peripheral driver library functions in the ROM. The detailed description of each function
is available in the Stellaris® ROM User’s Guide. See the "Using the ROM" chapter of the Stellaris®
Peripheral Driver Library User's Guide for more details on calling the ROM functions and using
driverlib/rom.h.
A table at the beginning of the ROM points to the entry points for the APIs that are provided in the
ROM. Accessing the API through these tables provides scalability; while the API locations may
change in future versions of the ROM, the API tables will not. The tables are split into two levels;
the main table contains one pointer per peripheral which points to a secondary table that contains
one pointer per API that is associated with that peripheral. The main table is located at 0x0100.0010,
right after the Cortex-M3 vector table in the ROM.
DriverLib functions are described in detail in the Stellaris® Peripheral Driver Library User's Guide.
Additional APIs are available for graphics and USB functions, but are not preloaded into ROM. The
Stellaris Graphics Library provides a set of graphics primitives and a widget set for creating graphical
user interfaces on Stellaris microcontroller-based boards that have a graphical display (for more
information, see the Stellaris® Graphics Library User's Guide).

7.2.2.3
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Cryptography Tables
AES is a strong encryption method with reasonable performance and size. AES is fast in both
hardware and software, is fairly easy to implement, and requires little memory. AES is ideal for
applications that can use pre-arranged keys, such as setup during manufacturing or configuration.
Four data tables used by the XySSL AES implementation are provided in the ROM. The first is the
forward S-box substitution table, the second is the reverse S-box substitution table, the third is the
forward polynomial table, and the final is the reverse polynomial table. See the Stellaris® ROM
User’s Guide for more information on AES.
7.2.2.4
Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) Error Detection
The CRC technique can be used to validate correct receipt of messages (nothing lost or modified
in transit), to validate data after decompression, to validate that Flash memory contents have not
been changed, and for other cases where the data needs to be validated. A CRC is preferred over
a simple checksum (e.g. XOR all bits) because it catches changes more readily. See the Stellaris®
ROM User’s Guide for more information on CRC.
7.2.3
Flash Memory
At system clock speeds of 50 MHz and below, the Flash memory is read in a single cycle. The Flash
memory is organized as a set of 1-KB blocks that can be individually erased. An individual 32-bit
word can be programmed to change bits from 1 to 0. In addition, a write buffer provides the ability
to concurrently program 32 continuous words in Flash memory. Erasing a block causes the entire
contents of the block to be reset to all 1s. The 1-KB blocks are paired into sets of 2-KB blocks that
can be individually protected. The protection allows blocks to be marked as read-only or execute-only,
providing different levels of code protection. Read-only blocks cannot be erased or programmed,
protecting the contents of those blocks from being modified. Execute-only blocks cannot be erased
or programmed and can only be read by the controller instruction fetch mechanism, protecting the
contents of those blocks from being read by either the controller or by a debugger.
Caution – The Stellaris Flash memory array has ECC which uses a test port into the Flash memory to
continually scan the array for ECC errors and to correct any that are detected. This operation is
transparent to the microcontroller. The BIST must scan the entire memory array occasionally to ensure
integrity, taking about five minutes to do so. In systems where the microcontroller is frequently powered
for less than five minutes, power should be removed from the microcontroller in a controlled manner
to ensure proper operation. This controlled manner can either be through entering Hibernate mode or
software can request permission to power down the part using the USDREQ bit in the Flash Control
(FCTL) register and wait to receive an acknowledge from the USDACK bit prior to removing power. If
the microcontroller is powered down using this controlled method, the BIST engine keeps track of
where it was in the memory array and it always scans the complete array after any aggregate of five
minutes powered-on, regardless of the number of intervening power cycles. If the microcontroller is
powered down before five minutes of being powered up, BIST starts again from wherever it left off
before the last controlled power-down or from 0 if there never was a controlled power down. An
occasional short power down is not a concern, but the microcontroller should not always be powered
down frequently in an uncontrolled manner. The microcontroller can be power-cycled as frequently
as necessary if it is powered-down in a controlled manner.
7.2.3.1
Prefetch Buffer
The Flash memory controller has a prefetch buffer that is automatically used when the CPU frequency
is greater than 50 MHz. In this mode, the Flash memory operates at half of the system clock. The
prefetch buffer fetches two 32-bit words per clock allowing instructions to be fetched with no wait
states while code is executing linearly. The fetch buffer includes a branch speculation mechanism
304
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
that recognizes a branch and avoids extra wait states by not reading the next word pair. Also, short
loop branches often stay in the buffer. As a result, some branches can be executed with no wait
states. Other branches incur a single wait state.
7.2.3.2
Flash Memory Protection
The user is provided two forms of Flash memory protection per 2-KB Flash memory block in four
pairs of 32-bit wide registers. The policy for each protection form is controlled by individual bits (per
policy per block) in the FMPPEn and FMPREn registers.
■ Flash Memory Protection Program Enable (FMPPEn): If a bit is set, the corresponding block
may be programmed (written) or erased. If a bit is cleared, the corresponding block may not be
changed.
■ Flash Memory Protection Read Enable (FMPREn): If a bit is set, the corresponding block may
be executed or read by software or debuggers. If a bit is cleared, the corresponding block may
only be executed, and contents of the memory block are prohibited from being read as data.
The policies may be combined as shown in Table 7-1 on page 305.
Table 7-1. Flash Memory Protection Policy Combinations

This mode is used to lock the block from further modification while allowing any read or

1
1
No protection. The block may be written, erased, executed or read.
A Flash memory access that attempts to read a read-protected block (FMPREn bit is set) is prohibited
and generates a bus fault. A Flash memory access that attempts to program or erase a
program-protected block (FMPPEn bit is set) is prohibited and can optionally generate an interrupt
(by setting the AMASK bit in the Flash Controller Interrupt Mask (FCIM) register) to alert software
developers of poorly behaving software during the development and debug phases. Note that if a
FMPREn bit is cleared, all read accesses to the Flash memory block are disallowed, including any
data accesses. Care must be taken not to store required data in a Flash memory block that has the
associated FMPREn bit cleared.
The factory settings for the FMPREn and FMPPEn registers are a value of 1 for all implemented
banks. These settings create a policy of open access and programmability. The register bits may
be changed by clearing the specific register bit. The changes are effective immediately, but are not
permanent until the register is committed (saved), at which point the bit change is permanent. If a
bit is changed from a 1 to a 0 and not committed, it may be restored by executing any type of reset
sequence. The changes are committed using the Flash Memory Control (FMC) register. Details
on programming these bits are discussed in “Non-Volatile Register Programming” on page 308.
7.2.3.3
Interrupts
The Flash memory controller can generate interrupts when the following conditions are observed:
■ Programming Interrupt - signals when a program or erase action is complete.
January 21, 2012
305
Texas Instruments-Production Data
Internal Memory
■ Access Interrupt - signals when a program or erase action has been attempted on a 2-kB block
of memory that is protected by its corresponding FMPPEn bit.
The interrupt events that can trigger a controller-level interrupt are defined in the Flash Controller
Masked Interrupt Status (FCMIS) register (see page 317) by setting the corresponding MASK bits.
If interrupts are not used, the raw interrupt status is always visible via the Flash Controller Raw
Interrupt Status (FCRIS) register (see page 316).
Interrupts are always cleared (for both the FCMIS and FCRIS registers) by writing a 1 to the
corresponding bit in the Flash Controller Masked Interrupt Status and Clear (FCMISC) register
(see page 318).
7.2.3.4
Flash Memory Programming
The Stellaris devices provide a user-friendly interface for Flash memory programming. All
erase/program operations are handled via three registers: Flash Memory Address (FMA), Flash
Memory Data (FMD), and Flash Memory Control (FMC). Note that if the debug capabilities of the
microcontroller have been deactivated, resulting in a "locked" state, a recovery sequence must be
performed in order to reactivate the debug module. See “Recovering a "Locked"
Microcontroller” on page 174.
During a Flash memory operation (write, page erase, or mass erase) access to the Flash memory
is inhibited. As a result, instruction and literal fetches are held off until the Flash memory operation
is complete. If instruction execution is required during a Flash memory operation, the code that is
executing must be placed in SRAM and executed from there while the flash operation is in progress.
Caution – The Flash memory is divided into sectors of electrically separated address ranges of 4 KB
each, aligned on 4 KB boundaries. Erase/program operations on a 1-KB page have an electrical effect
on the other three 1-KB pages within the sector. A specific 1-KB page must be erased after 6 total
erase/program cycles occur to the other pages within its 4-KB sector. The following sequence of operations
on a 4-KB sector of Flash memory (Page 0..3) provides an example:
■ Page 3 is erase and programmed with values.
■ Page 0, Page 1, and Page 2 are erased and then programmed with values. At this point Page 3 has
been affected by 3 erase/program cycles.
■ Page 0, Page 1, and Page 2 are again erased and then programmed with values. At this point Page
3 has been affected by 6 erase/program cycles.
■ If the contents of Page 3 must continue to be valid, Page 3 must be erased and reprogrammed before
any other page in this sector has another erase or program operation.
To program a 32-bit word
1. Write source data to the FMD register.
2. Write the target address to the FMA register.
3. Write the Flash memory write key and the WRITE bit (a value of 0xA442.0001) to the FMC
register.
4. Poll the FMC register until the WRITE bit is cleared.

Important: To ensure proper operation, two writes to the same word must be separated by an
ERASE. The following two sequences are allowed:
■ ERASE -> PROGRAM value -> PROGRAM 0x0000.0000
■ ERASE -> PROGRAM value -> ERASE
The following sequence is NOT allowed:
■ ERASE -> PROGRAM value -> PROGRAM value
To perform an erase of a 1-KB page
1. Write the page address to the FMA register.
2. Write the Flash memory write key and the ERASE bit (a value of 0xA442.0002) to the FMC
register.
3. Poll the FMC register until the ERASE bit is cleared or, alternatively, enable the programming
interrupt using the PMASK bit in the FCIM register.
To perform a mass erase of the Flash memory
1. Write the Flash memory write key and the MERASE bit (a value of 0xA442.0004) to the FMC
register.
2. Poll the FMC register until the MERASE bit is cleared or, alternatively, enable the programming
interrupt using the PMASK bit in the FCIM register.
7.2.3.5
32-Word Flash Memory Write Buffer
A 32-word write buffer provides the capability to perform faster write accesses to the Flash memory
by concurrently programing 32 words with a single buffered Flash memory write operation. The
buffered Flash memory write operation takes the same amount of time as the single word write
operation controlled by bit 0 in the FMC register. The data for the buffered write is written to the
Flash Write Buffer (FWBn) registers.
The registers are 32-word aligned with Flash memory, and therefore the register FWB0 corresponds
with the address in FMA where bits [6:0] of FMA are all 0. FWB1 corresponds with the address in
FMA + 0x4 and so on. Only the FWBn registers that have been updated since the previous buffered
Flash memory write operation are written. The Flash Write Buffer Valid (FWBVAL) register shows
which registers have been written since the last buffered Flash memory write operation. This register
contains a bit for each of the 32 FWBn registers, where bit[n] of FWBVAL corresponds to FWBn.
The FWBn register has been updated if the corresponding bit in the FWBVAL register is set.
To program 32 words with a single buffered Flash memory write operation
1. Write the source data to the FWBn registers.
2. Write the target address to the FMA register. This must be a 32-word aligned address (that is,
bits [6:0] in FMA must be 0s).
3. Write the Flash memory write key and the WRBUF bit (a value of 0xA442.0001) to the FMC2
register.

4. Poll the FMC2 register until the WRBUF bit is cleared or wait for the PMIS interrupt to be signaled.
7.2.3.6
Non-Volatile Register Programming
This section discusses how to update the registers shown in Table 7-2 on page 309 that are resident
within the Flash memory itself. These registers exist in a separate space from the main Flash memory
array and are not affected by an ERASE or MASS ERASE operation. With the exception of the Boot
Configuration (BOOTCFG) register, the settings in these registers can be written, their functions
verified, and their values read back before they are committed, at which point they become
non-volatile. If a value in one of these registers has not been committed, any type of reset restores
the last committed value or the default value if the register has never been committed. Once the
register contents are committed, the only way to restore the factory default values is to perform the
sequence described in “Recovering a "Locked" Microcontroller” on page 174.
To write to a non-volatile register:
■ Bits can only be changed from 1 to 0.
■ For all registers except the BOOTCFG register, write the data to the register address provided
in the register description. For the BOOTCFG register, write the data to the FMD register.
■ The registers can be read to verify their contents. To verify what is to be stored in the BOOTCFG
register, read the FMD register. Reading the BOOTCFG register returns the previously committed
value or the default value if the register has never been committed.
■ The new values are effectively immediately for all registers except BOOTCFG, as the new value
for the register is not stored in the register until it has been committed.
■ Prior to committing the register value, any type of reset restores the last committed value or the
default value if the register has never been committed.
To commit a new value to a non-volatile register:
■ Write the data as described above.
■ Write to the FMA register the value shown in Table 7-2 on page 309.
■ Write the Flash memory write key and set the COMT bit in the FMC register. These values must
be written to the FMC register at the same time.
■ Committing a non-volatile register has the same timing as a write to regular Flash memory,
defined by TPROG, as shown in Table 21-19 on page 896. Software can poll the COMT bit in the
FMC register to determine when the operation is complete, or an interrupt can be enabled by
setting the PMASK bit in the FCIM register.
■ When committing the BOOTCFG register, the INVDRIS bit in the FCRIS register is set if a bit
that has already been committed as a 0 is attempted to be committed as a 1.
■ Once the value has been committed, any type of reset has no effect on the register contents.
■ Changes to the BOOTCFG register are effective after the next reset.
■ The NW bit in the USER_REG0, USER_REG1, USER_REG2, USER_REG3, and BOOTCFG
registers is cleared when the register is committed. Once this bit is cleared, additional changes
to the register are not allowed.

Important: After being committed, these registers can only be restored to their factory default values
by performing the sequence described in “Recovering a "Locked"
Microcontroller” on page 174. The mass erase of the main Flash memory array caused
by the sequence is performed prior to restoring these registers.

Register 3: Flash Memory Control (FMC), offset 0x008
When this register is written, the Flash memory controller initiates the appropriate access cycle for
the location specified by the Flash Memory Address (FMA) register (see page 311). If the access
is a write access, the data contained in the Flash Memory Data (FMD) register (see page 312) is
written to the specified address.
This register must be the final register written and initiates the memory operation. The four control
bits in the lower byte of this register are used to initiate memory operations.
Care must be taken not to set multiple control bits as the results of such an operation are
unpredictable.
Caution – If any of bits [15:4] are written to 1, the device may become inoperable. These bits should
always be written to 0. In all registers, the value of a reserved bit should be preserved across a
read-modify-write operation.

Register 8: Flash Write Buffer Valid (FWBVAL), offset 0x030
This register provides a bitwise status of which FWBn registers have been written by the processor
since the last write of the Flash memory write buffer. The entries with a 1 are written on the next
write of the Flash memory write buffer. This register is cleared after the write operation by hardware.
A protection violation on the write operation also clears this status.
Software can program the same 32 words to various Flash memory locations by setting the FWB[n]
bits after they are cleared by the write operation. The next write operation then uses the same data
as the previous one. In addition, if a FWBn register change should not be written to Flash memory,
software can clear the corresponding FWB[n] bit to preserve the existing data when the next write
operation occurs.

Register 10: Flash Write Buffer n (FWBn), offset 0x100 - 0x17C
These 32 registers hold the contents of the data to be written into the Flash memory on a buffered
Flash memory write operation. The offset selects one of the 32-bit registers. Only FWBn registers
that have been updated since the preceding buffered Flash memory write operation are written into
the Flash memory, so it is not necessary to write the entire bank of registers in order to write 1 or
2 words. The FWBn registers are written into the Flash memory with the FWB0 register corresponding
to the address contained in FMA. FWB1 is written to the address FMA+0x4 etc. Note that only data
bits that are 0 result in the Flash memory being modified. A data bit that is 1 leaves the content of
the Flash memory bit at its previous value.

Register 11: ROM Control (RMCTL), offset 0x0F0
This register provides control of the ROM controller state. This register offset is relative to the System
Control base address of 0x400F.E000.
At reset, the ROM is mapped over the Flash memory so that the ROM boot sequence is always
executed. The boot sequence executed from ROM is as follows:
1. The BA bit (below) is cleared such that ROM is mapped to 0x01xx.xxxx and Flash memory is
mapped to address 0x0.
2. The BOOTCFG register is read. If the EN bit is clear, the status of the specified GPIO pin is
compared with the specified polarity. If the status matches the specified polarity, the ROM is
mapped to address 0x0000.0000 and execution continues out of the ROM Boot Loader.
3. If the status doesn't match the specified polarity, the data at address 0x0000.0004 is read, and
if the data at this address is 0xFFFF.FFFF, the ROM is mapped to address 0x0000.0000 and
execution continues out of the ROM Boot Loader.
4. If there is data at address 0x0000.0004 that is not 0xFFFF.FFFF, the stack pointer (SP) is loaded
from Flash memory at address 0x0000.0000 and the program counter (PC) is loaded from
address 0x0000.0004. The user application begins executing.

Note:
This register is aliased for backwards compatability.
Note:
Offset is relative to System Control base address of 0x400FE000.
This register stores the read-only protection bits for each 2-KB flash block (FMPPEn stores the
execute-only bits). Flash memory up to a total of 64 KB is controlled by this register. Other FMPREn
registers (if any) provide protection for other 64K blocks. This register is loaded during the power-on
reset sequence. The factory settings for the FMPREn and FMPPEn registers are a value of 1 for
all implemented banks. This achieves a policy of open access and programmability. The register
bits may be changed by writing the specific register bit. However, this register is R/W0; the user can
only change the protection bit from a 1 to a 0 (and may NOT change a 0 to a 1). The changes are
not permanent until the register is committed (saved), at which point the bit change is permanent.
If a bit is changed from a 1 to a 0 and not committed, it may be restored by executing a power-on
reset sequence. The reset value shown only applies to power-on reset; any other type of reset does
not affect this register. Once committed, the only way to restore the factory default value of this
register is to perform the sequence detailed in “Recovering a "Locked" Microcontroller” on page 174.

by using any GPIO signal from Ports A-H as configured by the bits in this register. If the EN bit is
set or the specified pin does not have the required polarity, the system control module checks
address 0x000.0004 to see if the Flash memory has a valid reset vector. If the data at address
0x0000.0004 is 0xFFFF.FFFF, then it is assumed that the Flash memory has not yet been
programmed, and the core executes the ROM Boot Loader. The DBG0 bit (bit 0) is set to 0 from
the factory and the DBG1 bit (bit 1) is set to 1, which enables external debuggers. Clearing the
DBG1 bit disables any external debugger access to the device permanently, starting with the next
power-up cycle of the device. The NW bit (bit 31) indicates that the register has not yet been
committed and is controlled through hardware to ensure that the register is only committed once.
Prior to being committed, bits can only be changed from 1 to 0. The reset value shown only applies
to power-on reset; any other type of reset does not affect this register. Once committed, the only
way to restore the factory default value of this register is to perform the sequence detailed in
“Recovering a "Locked" Microcontroller” on page 174.

Register 19: Flash Memory Protection Read Enable 1 (FMPRE1), offset 0x204
Note:
Offset is relative to System Control base address of 0x400FE000.
This register stores the read-only protection bits for each 2-KB flash block (FMPPEn stores the
execute-only bits). Flash memory up to a total of 64 KB is controlled by this register. Other FMPREn
registers (if any) provide protection for other 64K blocks. This register is loaded during the power-on
reset sequence. The factory settings for the FMPREn and FMPPEn registers are a value of 1 for
all implemented banks. This achieves a policy of open access and programmability. The register
bits may be changed by writing the specific register bit. However, this register is R/W0; the user can
only change the protection bit from a 1 to a 0 (and may NOT change a 0 to a 1). The changes are
not permanent until the register is committed (saved), at which point the bit change is permanent.
If a bit is changed from a 1 to a 0 and not committed, it may be restored by executing a power-on
reset sequence. The reset value shown only applies to power-on reset; any other type of reset does
not affect this register. Once committed, the only way to restore the factory default value of this
register is to perform the sequence detailed in “Recovering a "Locked" Microcontroller” on page 174.
If the Flash memory size on the device is less than 64 KB, this register usually reads as zeroes, but
software should not rely on these bits to be zero. For additional information, see “Flash Memory
Protection” on page 305.

Register 22: Flash Memory Protection Program Enable 1 (FMPPE1), offset
0x404
Note:
Offset is relative to System Control base address of 0x400FE000.
This register stores the execute-only protection bits for each 2-KB flash block (FMPREn stores the
execute-only bits). Flash memory up to a total of 64 KB is controlled by this register. Other FMPPEn
registers (if any) provide protection for other 64K blocks. This register is loaded during the power-on
reset sequence. The factory settings for the FMPREn and FMPPEn registers are a value of 1 for
all implemented banks. This achieves a policy of open access and programmability. The register
bits may be changed by writing the specific register bit. However, this register is R/W0; the user can
only change the protection bit from a 1 to a 0 (and may NOT change a 0 to a 1). The changes are
not permanent until the register is committed (saved), at which point the bit change is permanent.
If a bit is changed from a 1 to a 0 and not committed, it may be restored by executing a power-on
reset sequence. The reset value shown only applies to power-on reset; any other type of reset does
not affect this register. Once committed, the only way to restore the factory default value of this
register is to perform the sequence detailed in “Recovering a "Locked" Microcontroller” on page 174.
If the Flash memory size on the device is less than 64 KB, this register usually reads as zeroes, but
software should not rely on these bits to be zero. For additional information, see “Flash Memory
Protection” on page 305.

Micro Direct Memory Access (μDMA)
The LM3S1B21 microcontroller includes a Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller, known as
micro-DMA (μDMA). The μDMA controller provides a way to offload data transfer tasks from the
Cortex™-M3 processor, allowing for more efficient use of the processor and the available bus
bandwidth. The μDMA controller can perform transfers between memory and peripherals. It has
dedicated channels for each supported on-chip module and can be programmed to automatically
perform transfers between peripherals and memory as the peripheral is ready to transfer more data.
The μDMA controller provides the following features:

Functional Description
The μDMA controller is a flexible and highly configurable DMA controller designed to work efficiently
with the microcontroller's Cortex-M3 processor core. It supports multiple data sizes and address
increment schemes, multiple levels of priority among DMA channels, and several transfer modes
to allow for sophisticated programmed data transfers. The μDMA controller's usage of the bus is
always subordinate to the processor core, so it never holds up a bus transaction by the processor.
Because the μDMA controller is only using otherwise-idle bus cycles, the data transfer bandwidth
it provides is essentially free, with no impact on the rest of the system. The bus architecture has
been optimized to greatly enhance the ability of the processor core and the μDMA controller to
efficiently share the on-chip bus, thus improving performance. The optimizations include RAM
striping and peripheral bus segmentation, which in many cases allow both the processor core and
the μDMA controller to access the bus and perform simultaneous data transfers.
The μDMA controller can transfer data to and from the on-chip SRAM. However, because the Flash
memory and ROM are located on a separate internal bus, it is not possible to transfer data from the
Flash memory or ROM with the μDMA controller.
Each peripheral function that is supported has a dedicated channel on the μDMA controller that can
be configured independently. The μDMA controller implements a unique configuration method using
channel control structures that are maintained in system memory by the processor. While simple
transfer modes are supported, it is also possible to build up sophisticated "task" lists in memory that
allow the μDMA controller to perform arbitrary-sized transfers to and from arbitrary locations as part
of a single transfer request. The μDMA controller also supports the use of ping-pong buffering to
accommodate constant streaming of data to or from a peripheral.
Each channel also has a configurable arbitration size. The arbitration size is the number of items
that are transferred in a burst before the μDMA controller rearbitrates for channel priority. Using the
January 21, 2012
339
Texas Instruments-Production Data
Micro Direct Memory Access (μDMA)
arbitration size, it is possible to control exactly how many items are transferred to or from a peripheral
each time it makes a μDMA service request.
8.2.1
Channel Assignments
μDMA channels 0-31 are assigned to peripherals according to the following table. The DMA Channel
Assignment (DMACHASGN) register (see page 386) can be used to specify the primary or secondary
assignment. If the primary function is not available on this microcontroller, the secondary function
becomes the primary function. If the secondary function is not available, the primary function is the
only option.
Note:
Channels noted in the table as "Available for software" may be assigned to peripherals in
the future. However, they are currently available for software use. Channel 30 is dedicated
for software use.
Because of the way the μDMA controller interacts with peripherals, the μDMA channel for
the peripheral must be enabled in order for the μDMA controller to be able to read and write
the peripheral registers, even if a different μDMA channel is used to perform the μDMA
transfer. To minimize confusion and chance of software errors, it is best practice to use a
peripheral's μDMA channel for performing all μDMA transfers for that peripheral, even if it
is processor-triggered and using AUTO mode, which could be considered a software transfer.
Note that if the software channel is used, interrupts occur on the dedicated μDMA interrupt
vector. If the peripheral channel is used, then the interrupt occurs on the interrupt vector
for the peripheral.

Priority
The μDMA controller assigns priority to each channel based on the channel number and the priority
level bit for the channel. Channel number 0 has the highest priority and as the channel number
increases, the priority of a channel decreases. Each channel has a priority level bit to provide two
levels of priority: default priority and high priority. If the priority level bit is set, then that channel has
higher priority than all other channels at default priority. If multiple channels are set for high priority,
then the channel number is used to determine relative priority among all the high priority channels.
The priority bit for a channel can be set using the DMA Channel Priority Set (DMAPRIOSET)
register and cleared with the DMA Channel Priority Clear (DMAPRIOCLR) register.
8.2.3
Arbitration Size
When a μDMA channel requests a transfer, the μDMA controller arbitrates among all the channels
making a request and services the μDMA channel with the highest priority. Once a transfer begins,
it continues for a selectable number of transfers before rearbitrating among the requesting channels
again. The arbitration size can be configured for each channel, ranging from 1 to 1024 item transfers.
After the μDMA controller transfers the number of items specified by the arbitration size, it then
checks among all the channels making a request and services the channel with the highest priority.
If a lower priority μDMA channel uses a large arbitration size, the latency for higher priority channels
is increased because the μDMA controller completes the lower priority burst before checking for
higher priority requests. Therefore, lower priority channels should not use a large arbitration size
for best response on high priority channels.
The arbitration size can also be thought of as a burst size. It is the maximum number of items that
are transferred at any one time in a burst. Here, the term arbitration refers to determination of μDMA
channel priority, not arbitration for the bus. When the μDMA controller arbitrates for the bus, the
processor always takes priority. Furthermore, the μDMA controller is held off whenever the processor
must perform a bus transaction on the same bus, even in the middle of a burst transfer.
8.2.4
Request Types
The μDMA controller responds to two types of requests from a peripheral: single or burst. Each
peripheral may support either or both types of requests. A single request means that the peripheral
is ready to transfer one item, while a burst request means that the peripheral is ready to transfer
multiple items.
January 21, 2012
341
Texas Instruments-Production Data
Micro Direct Memory Access (μDMA)
The μDMA controller responds differently depending on whether the peripheral is making a single
request or a burst request. If both are asserted, and the μDMA channel has been set up for a burst
transfer, then the burst request takes precedence. See Table 8-2 on page 342, which shows how
each peripheral supports the two request types.

Single Request
When a single request is detected, and not a burst request, the μDMA controller transfers one item
and then stops to wait for another request.
8.2.4.2
Burst Request
When a burst request is detected, the μDMA controller transfers the number of items that is the
lesser of the arbitration size or the number of items remaining in the transfer. Therefore, the arbitration
size should be the same as the number of data items that the peripheral can accommodate when
making a burst request. For example, the UART generates a burst request based on the FIFO trigger
level. In this case, the arbitration size should be set to the amount of data that the FIFO can transfer
when the trigger level is reached. A burst transfer runs to completion once it is started, and cannot
be interrupted, even by a higher priority channel. Burst transfers complete in a shorter time than the
same number of non-burst transfers.
It may be desirable to use only burst transfers and not allow single transfers. For example, perhaps
the nature of the data is such that it only makes sense when transferred together as a single unit
rather than one piece at a time. The single request can be disabled by using the DMA Channel
Useburst Set (DMAUSEBURSTSET) register. By setting the bit for a channel in this register, the
μDMA controller only responds to burst requests for that channel.
8.2.5
Channel Configuration
The μDMA controller uses an area of system memory to store a set of channel control structures
in a table. The control table may have one or two entries for each μDMA channel. Each entry in the
table structure contains source and destination pointers, transfer size, and transfer mode. The
control table can be located anywhere in system memory, but it must be contiguous and aligned on
a 1024-byte boundary.
Table 8-3 on page 343 shows the layout in memory of the channel control table. Each channel may
have one or two control structures in the control table: a primary control structure and an optional
alternate control structure. The table is organized so that all of the primary entries are in the first
half of the table, and all the alternate structures are in the second half of the table. The primary entry
is used for simple transfer modes where transfers can be reconfigured and restarted after each
transfer is complete. In this case, the alternate control structures are not used and therefore only
the first half of the table must be allocated in memory; the second half of the control table is not
342

necessary, and that memory can be used for something else. If a more complex transfer mode is
used such as ping-pong or scatter-gather, then the alternate control structure is also used and
memory space should be allocated for the entire table.
Any unused memory in the control table may be used by the application. This includes the control
structures for any channels that are unused by the application as well as the unused control word
for each channel.

Table 8-4 shows an individual control structure entry in the control table. Each entry is aligned on
a 16-byte boundary. The entry contains four long words: the source end pointer, the destination end
pointer, the control word, and an unused entry. The end pointers point to the ending address of the
transfer and are inclusive. If the source or destination is non-incrementing (as for a peripheral
register), then the pointer should point to the transfer address.

The control word contains the following fields:

■ Source and destination address increment size

The control word and each field are described in detail in “μDMA Channel Control
Structure” on page 360. The μDMA controller updates the transfer size and transfer mode fields as
the transfer is performed. At the end of a transfer, the transfer size indicates 0, and the transfer
mode indicates "stopped." Because the control word is modified by the μDMA controller, it must be

reconfigured before each new transfer. The source and destination end pointers are not modified,
so they can be left unchanged if the source or destination addresses remain the same.
Prior to starting a transfer, a μDMA channel must be enabled by setting the appropriate bit in the
DMA Channel Enable Set (DMAENASET) register. A channel can be disabled by setting the
channel bit in the DMA Channel Enable Clear (DMAENACLR) register. At the end of a complete
μDMA transfer, the controller automatically disables the channel.
8.2.6
Transfer Modes
The μDMA controller supports several transfer modes. Two of the modes support simple one-time
transfers. Several complex modes support a continuous flow of data.
8.2.6.1
Stop Mode
While Stop is not actually a transfer mode, it is a valid value for the mode field of the control word.
When the mode field has this value, the μDMA controller does not perform any transfers and disables
the channel if it is enabled. At the end of a transfer, the μDMA controller updates the control word
to set the mode to Stop.
8.2.6.2
Basic Mode
In Basic mode, the μDMA controller performs transfers as long as there are more items to transfer,
and a transfer request is present. This mode is used with peripherals that assert a μDMA request
signal whenever the peripheral is ready for a data transfer. Basic mode should not be used in any
situation where the request is momentary even though the entire transfer should be completed. For
example, a software-initiated transfer creates a momentary request, and in Basic mode, only the
number of transfers specified by the ARBSIZE field in the DMA Channel Control Word (DMACHCTL)
register is transferred on a software request, even if there is more data to transfer.
When all of the items have been transferred using Basic mode, the μDMA controller sets the mode
for that channel to Stop.
8.2.6.3
Auto Mode
Auto mode is similar to Basic mode, except that once a transfer request is received, the transfer
runs to completion, even if the μDMA request is removed. This mode is suitable for software-triggered
transfers. Generally, Auto mode is not used with a peripheral.
When all the items have been transferred using Auto mode, the μDMA controller sets the mode for
that channel to Stop.
8.2.6.4
Ping-Pong
Ping-Pong mode is used to support a continuous data flow to or from a peripheral. To use Ping-Pong
mode, both the primary and alternate data structures must be implemented. Both structures are set
up by the processor for data transfer between memory and a peripheral. The transfer is started
using the primary control structure. When the transfer using the primary control structure is complete,
the μDMA controller reads the alternate control structure for that channel to continue the transfer.
Each time this happens, an interrupt is generated, and the processor can reload the control structure
for the just-completed transfer. Data flow can continue indefinitely this way, using the primary and
alternate control structures to switch back and forth between buffers as the data flows to or from
the peripheral.
Refer to Figure 8-2 on page 345 for an example showing operation in Ping-Pong mode.

Memory Scatter-Gather
Memory Scatter-Gather mode is a complex mode used when data must be transferred to or from
varied locations in memory instead of a set of contiguous locations in a memory buffer. For example,
a gather μDMA operation could be used to selectively read the payload of several stored packets
of a communication protocol and store them together in sequence in a memory buffer.

Micro Direct Memory Access (μDMA)
In Memory Scatter-Gather mode, the primary control structure is used to program the alternate
control structure from a table in memory. The table is set up by the processor software and contains
a list of control structures, each containing the source and destination end pointers, and the control
word for a specific transfer. The mode of each control word must be set to Scatter-Gather mode.
Each entry in the table is copied in turn to the alternate structure where it is then executed. The
μDMA controller alternates between using the primary control structure to copy the next transfer
instruction from the list and then executing the new transfer instruction. The end of the list is marked
by programming the control word for the last entry to use Auto transfer mode. Once the last transfer
is performed using Auto mode, the μDMA controller stops. A completion interrupt is generated only
after the last transfer. It is possible to loop the list by having the last entry copy the primary control
structure to point back to the beginning of the list (or to a new list). It is also possible to trigger a set
of other channels to perform a transfer, either directly, by programming a write to the software trigger
for another channel, or indirectly, by causing a peripheral action that results in a μDMA request.
By programming the μDMA controller using this method, a set of arbitrary transfers can be performed
based on a single μDMA request.
Refer to Figure 8-3 on page 347 and Figure 8-4 on page 348, which show an example of operation
in Memory Scatter-Gather mode. This example shows a gather operation, where data in three
separate buffers in memory is copied together into one buffer. Figure 8-3 on page 347 shows how
the application sets up a μDMA task list in memory that is used by the controller to perform three
sets of copy operations from different locations in memory. The primary control structure for the
channel that is used for the operation is configured to copy from the task list to the alternate control
structure.
Figure 8-4 on page 348 shows the sequence as the μDMA controller performs the three sets of copy
operations. First, using the primary control structure, the μDMA controller loads the alternate control
structure with task A. It then performs the copy operation specified by task A, copying the data from
the source buffer A to the destination buffer. Next, the μDMA controller again uses the primary
control structure to load task B into the alternate control structure, and then performs the B operation
with the alternate control structure. The process is repeated for task C.

8.2.6.6
Peripheral Scatter-Gather
Peripheral Scatter-Gather mode is very similar to Memory Scatter-Gather, except that the transfers
are controlled by a peripheral making a μDMA request. Upon detecting a request from the peripheral,
the μDMA controller uses the primary control structure to copy one entry from the list to the alternate
control structure and then performs the transfer. At the end of this transfer, the next transfer is started
only if the peripheral again asserts a μDMA request. The μDMA controller continues to perform
transfers from the list only when the peripheral is making a request, until the last transfer is complete.
A completion interrupt is generated only after the last transfer.
By using this method, the μDMA controller can transfer data to or from a peripheral from a set of
arbitrary locations whenever the peripheral is ready to transfer data.
Refer to Figure 8-5 on page 350 and Figure 8-6 on page 351, which show an example of operation
in Peripheral Scatter-Gather mode. This example shows a gather operation, where data from three
separate buffers in memory is copied to a single peripheral data register. Figure 8-5 on page 350
shows how the application sets up a µDMA task list in memory that is used by the controller to
perform three sets of copy operations from different locations in memory. The primary control
structure for the channel that is used for the operation is configured to copy from the task list to the
alternate control structure.
Figure 8-6 on page 351 shows the sequence as the µDMA controller performs the three sets of copy
operations. First, using the primary control structure, the µDMA controller loads the alternate control
structure with task A. It then performs the copy operation specified by task A, copying the data from
the source buffer A to the peripheral data register. Next, the µDMA controller again uses the primary
control structure to load task B into the alternate control structure, and then performs the B operation
with the alternate control structure. The process is repeated for task C.

8.2.7
Transfer Size and Increment
The μDMA controller supports transfer data sizes of 8, 16, or 32 bits. The source and destination
data size must be the same for any given transfer. The source and destination address can be
auto-incremented by bytes, half-words, or words, or can be set to no increment. The source and
destination address increment values can be set independently, and it is not necessary for the
address increment to match the data size as long as the increment is the same or larger than the
data size. For example, it is possible to perform a transfer using 8-bit data size, but using an address
increment of full words (4 bytes). The data to be transferred must be aligned in memory according
to the data size (8, 16, or 32 bits).
Table 8-5 shows the configuration to read from a peripheral that supplies 8-bit data.

Peripheral Interface
Each peripheral that supports μDMA has a single request and/or burst request signal that is asserted
when the peripheral is ready to transfer data (see Table 8-2 on page 342). The request signal can
be disabled or enabled using the DMA Channel Request Mask Set (DMAREQMASKSET) and
DMA Channel Request Mask Clear (DMAREQMASKCLR) registers. The μDMA request signal
is disabled, or masked, when the channel request mask bit is set. When the request is not masked,
the μDMA channel is configured correctly and enabled, and the peripheral asserts the request signal,
the μDMA controller begins the transfer.
Note:
When using μDMA to transfer data to and from a peripheral, the peripheral must disable all
interrupts to the NVIC.
When a μDMA transfer is complete, the μDMA controller generates an interrupt, see “Interrupts and
Errors” on page 353 for more information.
For more information on how a specific peripheral interacts with the μDMA controller, refer to the
DMA Operation section in the chapter that discusses that peripheral.
8.2.9
Software Request
One μDMA channel is dedicated to software-initiated transfers. This channel also has a dedicated
interrupt to signal completion of a μDMA transfer. A transfer is initiated by software by first configuring
and enabling the transfer, and then issuing a software request using the DMA Channel Software
Request (DMASWREQ) register. For software-based transfers, the Auto transfer mode should be
used.
It is possible to initiate a transfer on any channel using the DMASWREQ register. If a request is
initiated by software using a peripheral μDMA channel, then the completion interrupt occurs on the
interrupt vector for the peripheral instead of the software interrupt vector. Any channel may be used
for software requests as long as the corresponding peripheral is not using μDMA for data transfer.

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
8.2.10
Interrupts and Errors
When a μDMA transfer is complete, the μDMA controller generates a completion interrupt on the
interrupt vector of the peripheral. Therefore, if μDMA is used to transfer data for a peripheral and
interrupts are used, then the interrupt handler for that peripheral must be designed to handle the
μDMA transfer completion interrupt. If the transfer uses the software μDMA channel, then the
completion interrupt occurs on the dedicated software μDMA interrupt vector (see Table
8-6 on page 353).
When μDMA is enabled for a peripheral, the μDMA controller stops the normal transfer interrupts
for a peripheral from reaching the interrupt controller (the interrupts are still reported in the peripheral's
interrupt registers). Thus, when a large amount of data is transferred using μDMA, instead of receiving
multiple interrupts from the peripheral as data flows, the interrupt controller receives only one interrupt
when the transfer is complete. Unmasked peripheral error interrupts continue to be sent to the
interrupt controller.
If the μDMA controller encounters a bus or memory protection error as it attempts to perform a data
transfer, it disables the μDMA channel that caused the error and generates an interrupt on the μDMA
error interrupt vector. The processor can read the DMA Bus Error Clear (DMAERRCLR) register
to determine if an error is pending. The ERRCLR bit is set if an error occurred. The error can be
cleared by writing a 1 to the ERRCLR bit.
Table 8-6 shows the dedicated interrupt assignments for the μDMA controller.

Initialization and Configuration
8.3.1
Module Initialization
Before the μDMA controller can be used, it must be enabled in the System Control block and in the
peripheral. The location of the channel control structure must also be programmed.
The following steps should be performed one time during system initialization:
1. The μDMA peripheral must be enabled in the System Control block. To do this, set the UDMA
bit of the System Control RCGC2 register (see page 261).
2. Enable the μDMA controller by setting the MASTEREN bit of the DMA Configuration (DMACFG)
register.
3. Program the location of the channel control table by writing the base address of the table to the
DMA Channel Control Base Pointer (DMACTLBASE) register. The base address must be
aligned on a 1024-byte boundary.
8.3.2
Configuring a Memory-to-Memory Transfer
μDMA channel 30 is dedicated for software-initiated transfers. However, any channel can be used
for software-initiated, memory-to-memory transfer if the associated peripheral is not being used.

Configure the Channel Attributes
First, configure the channel attributes:
1. Program bit 30 of the DMA Channel Priority Set (DMAPRIOSET) or DMA Channel Priority

2. Set bit 30 of the DMA Channel Primary Alternate Clear (DMAALTCLR) register to select the
primary channel control structure for this transfer.
3. Set bit 30 of the DMA Channel Useburst Clear (DMAUSEBURSTCLR) register to allow the
μDMA controller to respond to single and burst requests.
4. Set bit 30 of the DMA Channel Request Mask Clear (DMAREQMASKCLR) register to allow
the μDMA controller to recognize requests for this channel.
8.3.2.2
Configure the Channel Control Structure
Now the channel control structure must be configured.
This example transfers 256 words from one memory buffer to another. Channel 30 is used for a
software transfer, and the control structure for channel 30 is at offset 0x1E0 of the channel control
table. The channel control structure for channel 30 is located at the offsets shown in Table 8-7.

Now the channel is configured and is ready to start.
1. Enable the channel by setting bit 30 of the DMA Channel Enable Set (DMAENASET) register.
2. Issue a transfer request by setting bit 30 of the DMA Channel Software Request (DMASWREQ)
register.
The μDMA transfer begins. If the interrupt is enabled, then the processor is notified by interrupt
when the transfer is complete. If needed, the status can be checked by reading bit 30 of the
DMAENASET register. This bit is automatically cleared when the transfer is complete. The status
can also be checked by reading the XFERMODE field of the channel control word at offset 0x1E8.
This field is automatically cleared at the end of the transfer.

Configuring a Peripheral for Simple Transmit
This example configures the μDMA controller to transmit a buffer of data to a peripheral. The
peripheral has a transmit FIFO with a trigger level of 4. The example peripheral uses μDMA channel
7.
8.3.3.1
Configure the Channel Attributes
First, configure the channel attributes:
1. Configure bit 7 of the DMA Channel Priority Set (DMAPRIOSET) or DMA Channel Priority
Clear (DMAPRIOCLR) registers to set the channel to High priority or Default priority.
2. Set bit 7 of the DMA Channel Primary Alternate Clear (DMAALTCLR) register to select the

3. Set bit 7 of the DMA Channel Useburst Clear (DMAUSEBURSTCLR) register to allow the
μDMA controller to respond to single and burst requests.
4. Set bit 7 of the DMA Channel Request Mask Clear (DMAREQMASKCLR) register to allow
the μDMA controller to recognize requests for this channel.
8.3.3.2

This example transfers 64 bytes from a memory buffer to the peripheral's transmit FIFO register
using μDMA channel 7. The control structure for channel 7 is at offset 0x070 of the channel control

Description
In this example, it is not important if the peripheral makes a single request or a burst request.
Because the peripheral has a FIFO that triggers at a level of 4, the arbitration size is set to
4. If the peripheral does make a burst request, then 4 bytes are transferred, which is what
the FIFO can accommodate. If the peripheral makes a single request (if there is any space
in the FIFO), then one byte is transferred at a time. If it is important to the application that
transfers only be made in bursts, then the Channel Useburst SET[7] bit should be set in
the DMA Channel Useburst Set (DMAUSEBURSTSET) register.
Start the Transfer
Now the channel is configured and is ready to start.
1. Enable the channel by setting bit 7 of the DMA Channel Enable Set (DMAENASET) register.
The μDMA controller is now configured for transfer on channel 7. The controller makes transfers to
the peripheral whenever the peripheral asserts a μDMA request. The transfers continue until the
entire buffer of 64 bytes has been transferred. When that happens, the μDMA controller disables
the channel and sets the XFERMODE field of the channel control word to 0 (Stopped). The status of
the transfer can be checked by reading bit 7 of the DMA Channel Enable Set (DMAENASET)
register. This bit is automatically cleared when the transfer is complete. The status can also be
checked by reading the XFERMODE field of the channel control word at offset 0x078. This field is
automatically cleared at the end of the transfer.
If peripheral interrupts are enabled, then the peripheral interrupt handler receives an interrupt when
the entire transfer is complete.
8.3.4
Configuring a Peripheral for Ping-Pong Receive
This example configures the μDMA controller to continuously receive 8-bit data from a peripheral
into a pair of 64-byte buffers. The peripheral has a receive FIFO with a trigger level of 8. The example
peripheral uses μDMA channel 8.

2. Set bit 8 of the DMA Channel Primary Alternate Clear (DMAALTCLR) register to select the
primary channel control structure for this transfer.
3. Set bit 8 of the DMA Channel Useburst Clear (DMAUSEBURSTCLR) register to allow the
μDMA controller to respond to single and burst requests.
4. Set bit 8 of the DMA Channel Request Mask Clear (DMAREQMASKCLR) register to allow
the μDMA controller to recognize requests for this channel.
8.3.4.2
Configure the Channel Control Structure
This example transfers bytes from the peripheral's receive FIFO register into two memory buffers
of 64 bytes each. As data is received, when one buffer is full, the μDMA controller switches to use
the other.
To use Ping-Pong buffering, both primary and alternate channel control structures must be used.
The primary control structure for channel 8 is at offset 0x080 of the channel control table, and the
alternate channel control structure is at offset 0x280. The channel control structures for channel 8
are located at the offsets shown in Table 8-11.

Configure the Source and Destination
The source and destination end pointers must be set to the last address for the transfer (inclusive).
Because the peripheral pointer does not change, it simply points to the peripheral's data register.
Both the primary and alternate sets of pointers must be configured.
1. Program the primary source end pointer at offset 0x080 to the address of the peripheral's receive
buffer.
2. Program the primary destination end pointer at offset 0x084 to the address of ping-pong buffer
A + 0x3F.
3. Program the alternate source end pointer at offset 0x280 to the address of the peripheral's
receive buffer.
4. Program the alternate destination end pointer at offset 0x284 to the address of ping-pong buffer
B + 0x3F.

Description
In this example, it is not important if the peripheral makes a single request or a burst request.
Because the peripheral has a FIFO that triggers at a level of 8, the arbitration size is set to
8. If the peripheral does make a burst request, then 8 bytes are transferred, which is what
the FIFO can accommodate. If the peripheral makes a single request (if there is any data
in the FIFO), then one byte is transferred at a time. If it is important to the application that
transfers only be made in bursts, then the Channel Useburst SET[8] bit should be set in
the DMA Channel Useburst Set (DMAUSEBURSTSET) register.
Configure the Peripheral Interrupt
An interrupt handler should be configured when using μDMA Ping-Pong mode, it is best to use an
interrupt handler. However, the Ping-Pong mode can be configured without interrupts by polling.
The interrupt handler is triggered after each buffer is complete.
1. Configure and enable an interrupt handler for the peripheral.
8.3.4.4
Enable the μDMA Channel
Now the channel is configured and is ready to start.
1. Enable the channel by setting bit 8 of the DMA Channel Enable Set (DMAENASET) register.
8.3.4.5
Process Interrupts
The μDMA controller is now configured and enabled for transfer on channel 8. When the peripheral
asserts the μDMA request signal, the μDMA controller makes transfers into buffer A using the primary
channel control structure. When the primary transfer to buffer A is complete, it switches to the
alternate channel control structure and makes transfers into buffer B. At the same time, the primary
channel control word mode field is configured to indicate Stopped, and an interrupt is
When an interrupt is triggered, the interrupt handler must determine which buffer is complete and
process the data or set a flag that the data must be processed by non-interrupt buffer processing
code. Then the next buffer transfer must be set up.
In the interrupt handler:
1. Read the primary channel control word at offset 0x088 and check the XFERMODE field. If the
field is 0, this means buffer A is complete. If buffer A is complete, then:

a. Process the newly received data in buffer A or signal the buffer processing code that buffer
A has data available.
b. Reprogram the primary channel control word at offset 0x88 according to Table
8-12 on page 358.
2. Read the alternate channel control word at offset 0x288 and check the XFERMODE field. If the
field is 0, this means buffer B is complete. If buffer B is complete, then:
a. Process the newly received data in buffer B or signal the buffer processing code that buffer
B has data available.
b. Reprogram the alternate channel control word at offset 0x288 according to Table
8-12 on page 358.
8.3.5
Configuring Channel Assignments
Channel assignments for each μDMA channel can be changed using the DMACHASGN register.
Each bit represents a μDMA channel. If the bit is set, then the secondary function is used for the
channel.
Refer to Table 8-1 on page 340 for channel assignments.
For example, to use SSI1 Receive on channel 8 instead of UART0, set bit 8 of the DMACHASGN
register.
8.4
Register Map
Table 8-13 on page 359 lists the μDMA channel control structures and registers. The channel control
structure shows the layout of one entry in the channel control table. The channel control table is
located in system memory, and the location is determined by the application, that is, the base
address is n/a (not applicable). In the table below, the offset for the channel control structures is the
offset from the entry in the channel control table. See “Channel Configuration” on page 342 and Table
8-3 on page 343 for a description of how the entries in the channel control table are located in memory.
The μDMA register addresses are given as a hexadecimal increment, relative to the μDMA base
address of 0x400F.F000. Note that the μDMA module clock must be enabled before the registers
can be programmed (see page 261). There must be a delay of 3 system clocks after the μDMA
module clock is enabled before any μDMA module registers are accessed.

μDMA Channel Control Structure
The μDMA Channel Control Structure holds the transfer settings for a μDMA channel. Each channel
has two control structures, which are located in a table in system memory. Refer to “Channel
Configuration” on page 342 for an explanation of the Channel Control Table and the Channel Control
Structure.
The channel control structure is one entry in the channel control table. Each channel has a primary
and alternate structure. The primary control structures are located at offsets 0x0, 0x10, 0x20 and
so on. The alternate control structures are located at offsets 0x200, 0x210, 0x220, and so on.

Stop
Channel is stopped or configuration data is invalid. No more transfers can occur.
Basic
For each trigger (whether from a peripheral or a software request), the μDMA controller performs
the number of transfers specified by the ARBSIZE field.
Auto-Request
The initial request (software- or peripheral-initiated) is sufficient to complete the entire transfer
of XFERSIZE items without any further requests.
Ping-Pong
This mode uses both the primary and alternate control structures for this channel. When the
number of transfers specified by the XFERSIZE field have completed for the current control
structure (primary or alternate), the µDMA controller switches to the other one. These switches
continue until one of the control structures is not set to ping-pong mode. At that point, the µDMA
controller stops. An interrupt is generated on completion of the transfers configured by each
control structure. See “Ping-Pong” on page 344.
Memory Scatter-Gather
When using this mode, the primary control structure for the channel is configured to allow a list
of operations (tasks) to be performed. The source address pointer specifies the start of a table
of tasks to be copied to the alternate control structure for this channel. The XFERMODE field for
the alternate control structure should be configured to 0x5 (Alternate memory scatter-gather)
to perform the task. When the task completes, the µDMA switches back to the primary channel
control structure, which then copies the next task to the alternate control structure. This process
continues until the table of tasks is empty. The last task must have an XFERMODE value other
than 0x5. Note that for continuous operation, the last task can update the primary channel control
structure back to the start of the list or to another list. See “Memory Scatter-Gather” on page 345.

Peripheral Scatter-Gather
This value must be used in the primary channel control data structure when the μDMA controller
operates in Peripheral Scatter-Gather mode. In this mode, the μDMA controller operates exactly
the same as in Memory Scatter-Gather mode, except that instead of performing the number of
transfers specified by the XFERSIZE field in the alternate control structure at one time, the
μDMA controller only performs the number of transfers specified by the ARBSIZE field per
trigger; see Basic mode for details. See “Peripheral Scatter-Gather” on page 349.

This read-only register indicates that the μDMA channel is waiting on a request. A peripheral can
hold off the μDMA from performing a single request until the peripheral is ready for a burst request
to enhance the μDMA performance. The use of this feature is dependent on the design of the
peripheral and is not controllable by software in any way. This register cannot be read when the

Register 10: DMA Channel Useburst Set (DMAUSEBURSTSET), offset 0x018
Each bit of the DMAUSEBURSTSET register represents the corresponding μDMA channel. Setting
a bit disables the channel's single request input from generating requests, configuring the channel
to only accept burst requests. Reading the register returns the status of USEBURST.
If the amount of data to transfer is a multiple of the arbitration (burst) size, the corresponding SET[n]
bit is cleared after completing the final transfer. If there are fewer items remaining to transfer than
the arbitration (burst) size, the μDMA controller automatically clears the corresponding SET[n] bit,
allowing the remaining items to transfer using single requests. In order to resume transfers using
burst requests, the corresponding bit must be set again. A bit should not be set if the corresponding
peripheral does not support the burst request model.
Refer to “Request Types” on page 341 for more details about request types.

General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)
The GPIO module is composed of nine physical GPIO blocks, each corresponding to an individual
GPIO port (Port A, Port B, Port C, Port D, Port E, Port F, Port G, Port H, Port J). The GPIO module
supports up to 67 programmable input/output pins, depending on the peripherals being used.
The GPIO module has the following features:
■ Up to 67 GPIOs, depending on configuration
■ Highly flexible pin muxing allows use as GPIO or one of several peripheral functions
■ 5-V-tolerant in input configuration
■ Two means of port access: either Advanced High-Performance Bus (AHB) with better back-to-back
access performance, or the legacy Advanced Peripheral Bus (APB) for backwards-compatibility
with existing code
■ Fast toggle capable of a change every clock cycle for ports on AHB, every two clock cycles for
ports on APB
■ Programmable control for GPIO interrupts
– Interrupt generation masking
– Edge-triggered on rising, falling, or both
– Level-sensitive on High or Low values
■ Bit masking in both read and write operations through address lines
■ Can be used to initiate an ADC sample sequence
■ Pins configured as digital inputs are Schmitt-triggered
■ Programmable control for GPIO pad configuration
– Weak pull-up or pull-down resistors
– 2-mA, 4-mA, and 8-mA pad drive for digital communication; up to four pads can sink 18-mA
for high-current applications
– Slew rate control for the 8-mA drive
– Open drain enables
– Digital input enables

Signal Description
GPIO signals have alternate hardware functions. The following table lists the GPIO pins and their
analog and digital alternate functions. The AINx and VREFA analog signals are not 5-V tolerant and
go through an isolation circuit before reaching their circuitry. These signals are configured by clearing
the corresponding DEN bit in the GPIO Digital Enable (GPIODEN) register and setting the
corresponding AMSEL bit in the GPIO Analog Mode Select (GPIOAMSEL) register. Other analog

signals are 5-V tolerant and are connected directly to their circuitry (C0-, C0+, C1-, C1+). These
signals are configured by clearing the DEN bit in the GPIO Digital Enable (GPIODEN) register. All
GPIO signals are 5-V tolerant when configured as inputs except for PB0 and PB1, which are limited
to 3.6 V. The digital alternate hardware functions are enabled by setting the appropriate bit in the
GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL) and GPIODEN registers and configuring the PMCx
bit field in the GPIO Port Control (GPIOPCTL) register to the numeric encoding shown in the table
below. Note that each pin must be programmed individually; no type of grouping is implied by the
columns in the table. Table entries that are shaded gray are the default values for the corresponding
GPIO pin.
Important: All GPIO pins are configured as GPIOs and tri-stated by default (GPIOAFSEL=0,
GPIODEN=0, GPIOPDR=0, GPIOPUR=0, and GPIOPCTL=0, with the exception of the
pins shown in the table below. A Power-On-Reset (POR) or asserting RST puts the pins
back to their default state.

Functional Description
Each GPIO port is a separate hardware instantiation of the same physical block (see Figure
9-1 on page 401 and Figure 9-2 on page 402). The LM3S1B21 microcontroller contains nine ports
and thus nine of these physical GPIO blocks. Note that not all pins may be implemented on every
block. Some GPIO pins can function as I/O signals for the on-chip peripheral modules. For information
on which GPIO pins are used for alternate hardware functions, refer to Table 19-5 on page 851.

Data Control
The data control registers allow software to configure the operational modes of the GPIOs. The data
direction register configures the GPIO as an input or an output while the data register either captures
incoming data or drives it out to the pads.
Caution – It is possible to create a software sequence that prevents the debugger from connecting to
the Stellaris® microcontroller. If the program code loaded into flash immediately changes the JTAG
pins to their GPIO functionality, the debugger may not have enough time to connect and halt the
controller before the JTAG pin functionality switches. As a result, the debugger may be locked out of
the part. This issue can be avoided with a software routine that restores JTAG functionality based on
an external or software trigger.
9.2.1.1
Data Direction Operation
The GPIO Direction (GPIODIR) register (see page 411) is used to configure each individual pin as
an input or output. When the data direction bit is cleared, the GPIO is configured as an input, and
the corresponding data register bit captures and stores the value on the GPIO port. When the data
direction bit is set, the GPIO is configured as an output, and the corresponding data register bit is
driven out on the GPIO port.

9.2.1.2
Data Register Operation
To aid in the efficiency of software, the GPIO ports allow for the modification of individual bits in the
GPIO Data (GPIODATA) register (see page 410) by using bits [9:2] of the address bus as a mask.
In this manner, software drivers can modify individual GPIO pins in a single instruction without
affecting the state of the other pins. This method is more efficient than the conventional method of
performing a read-modify-write operation to set or clear an individual GPIO pin. To implement this
feature, the GPIODATA register covers 256 locations in the memory map.
During a write, if the address bit associated with that data bit is set, the value of the GPIODATA
register is altered. If the address bit is cleared, the data bit is left unchanged.
For example, writing a value of 0xEB to the address GPIODATA + 0x098 has the results shown in
Figure 9-3, where u indicates that data is unchanged by the write.

During a read, if the address bit associated with the data bit is set, the value is read. If the address
bit associated with the data bit is cleared, the data bit is read as a zero, regardless of its actual
value. For example, reading address GPIODATA + 0x0C4 yields as shown in Figure 9-4.

Interrupt Control
The interrupt capabilities of each GPIO port are controlled by a set of seven registers. These registers
are used to select the source of the interrupt, its polarity, and the edge properties. When one or
more GPIO inputs cause an interrupt, a single interrupt output is sent to the interrupt controller for
the entire GPIO port. For edge-triggered interrupts, software must clear the interrupt to enable any
further interrupts. For a level-sensitive interrupt, the external source must hold the level constant
for the interrupt to be recognized by the controller.
Three registers define the edge or sense that causes interrupts:
■ GPIO Interrupt Sense (GPIOIS) register (see page 412)
January 21, 2012
403
Texas Instruments-Production Data
General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)
■ GPIO Interrupt Both Edges (GPIOIBE) register (see page 413)
■ GPIO Interrupt Event (GPIOIEV) register (see page 414)
Interrupts are enabled/disabled via the GPIO Interrupt Mask (GPIOIM) register (see page 415).
When an interrupt condition occurs, the state of the interrupt signal can be viewed in two locations:
the GPIO Raw Interrupt Status (GPIORIS) and GPIO Masked Interrupt Status (GPIOMIS) registers
(see page 416 and page 417). As the name implies, the GPIOMIS register only shows interrupt
conditions that are allowed to be passed to the interrupt controller. The GPIORIS register indicates
that a GPIO pin meets the conditions for an interrupt, but has not necessarily been sent to the
interrupt controller.
Interrupts are cleared by writing a 1 to the appropriate bit of the GPIO Interrupt Clear (GPIOICR)
register (see page 419).
When programming the interrupt control registers (GPIOIS, GPIOIBE, or GPIOIEV), the interrupts
should be masked (GPIOIM cleared). Writing any value to an interrupt control register can generate
a spurious interrupt if the corresponding bits are enabled.
9.2.2.1
ADC Trigger Source
In addition to providing GPIO functionality, PB4 can also be used as an external trigger for the ADC.
If PB4 is configured as a non-masked interrupt pin (the appropriate bit of GPIOIM is set), an interrupt
for Port B is generated, and an external trigger signal is sent to the ADC. If the ADC Event
Multiplexer Select (ADCEMUX) register is configured to use the external trigger, an ADC conversion
is initiated. See page 626.
If no other Port B pins are being used to generate interrupts, the Interrupt 0-31 Set Enable (EN0)
register can disable the Port B interrupts, and the ADC interrupt can be used to read back the
converted data. Otherwise, the Port B interrupt handler must ignore and clear interrupts on PB4 and
wait for the ADC interrupt, or the ADC interrupt must be disabled in the EN0 register and the Port
B interrupt handler must poll the ADC registers until the conversion is completed. See page 117 for
more information.
9.2.3
Mode Control
The GPIO pins can be controlled by either software or hardware. Software control is the default for
most signals and corresponds to the GPIO mode, where the GPIODATA register is used to read
or write the corresponding pins. When hardware control is enabled via the GPIO Alternate Function
Select (GPIOAFSEL) register (see page 420), the pin state is controlled by its alternate function
(that is, the peripheral).
Further pin muxing options are provided through the GPIO Port Control (GPIOPCTL) register which
selects one of several peripheral functions for each GPIO. For information on the configuration
options, refer to Table 19-5 on page 851.
Note:
9.2.4
If any pin is to be used as an ADC input, the appropriate bit in the GPIOAMSEL register
must be set to disable the analog isolation circuit.
Commit Control
The GPIO commit control registers provide a layer of protection against accidental programming of
critical hardware peripherals. Protection is provided for the NMI pin (PB7) and the four JTAG/SWD
pins (PC[3:0]). Writes to protected bits of the GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL)
register (see page 420), GPIO Pull Up Select (GPIOPUR) register (see page 426), GPIO Pull-Down
Select (GPIOPDR) register (see page 428), and GPIO Digital Enable (GPIODEN) register (see
404

page 431) are not committed to storage unless the GPIO Lock (GPIOLOCK) register (see page 433)
has been unlocked and the appropriate bits of the GPIO Commit (GPIOCR) register (see page 434)
have been set.
9.2.5
Pad Control
The pad control registers allow software to configure the GPIO pads based on the application
requirements. The pad control registers include the GPIODR2R, GPIODR4R, GPIODR8R, GPIOODR,
GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, GPIOSLR, and GPIODEN registers. These registers control drive strength,
open-drain configuration, pull-up and pull-down resistors, slew-rate control and digital input enable
for each GPIO.
For special high-current applications, the GPIO output buffers may be used with the following
restrictions. With the GPIO pins configured as 8-mA output drivers, a total of four GPIO outputs may
be used to sink current loads up to 18 mA each. At 18-mA sink current loading, the VOL value is
specified as 1.2 V. The high-current GPIO package pins must be selected such that there are only
a maximum of two per side of the physical package or BGA pin group with the total number of
high-current GPIO outputs not exceeding four for the entire package.
9.2.6
Identification
The identification registers configured at reset allow software to detect and identify the module as
a GPIO block. The identification registers include the GPIOPeriphID0-GPIOPeriphID7 registers as
well as the GPIOPCellID0-GPIOPCellID3 registers.
9.3
Initialization and Configuration
The GPIO modules may be accessed via two different memory apertures. The legacy aperture, the
Advanced Peripheral Bus (APB), is backwards-compatible with previous Stellaris parts. The other
aperture, the Advanced High-Performance Bus (AHB), offers the same register map but provides
better back-to-back access performance than the APB bus. These apertures are mutually exclusive.
The aperture enabled for a given GPIO port is controlled by the appropriate bit in the GPIOHBCTL
register (see page 215).
To use the pins in a particular GPIO port, the clock for the port must be enabled by setting the
appropriate GPIO Port bit field (GPIOn) in the RCGC2 register (see page 261).
When the internal POR signal is asserted and until otherwise configured, all GPIO pins are configured
to be undriven (tristate): GPIOAFSEL=0, GPIODEN=0, GPIOPDR=0, and GPIOPUR=0, except for
the pins shown in Table 9-1 on page 397. Table 9-4 on page 405 shows all possible configurations
of the GPIO pads and the control register settings required to achieve them. Table 9-5 on page 406
shows how a rising edge interrupt is configured for pin 2 of a GPIO port.

Register Map
Table 9-7 on page 407 lists the GPIO registers. Each GPIO port can be accessed through one of
two bus apertures. The legacy aperture, the Advanced Peripheral Bus (APB), is backwards-compatible
with previous Stellaris parts. The other aperture, the Advanced High-Performance Bus (AHB), offers
the same register map but provides better back-to-back access performance than the APB bus.
Important: The GPIO registers in this chapter are duplicated in each GPIO block; however,
depending on the block, all eight bits may not be connected to a GPIO pad. In those
cases, writing to unconnected bits has no effect, and reading unconnected bits returns
no meaningful data.
The offset listed is a hexadecimal increment to the register’s address, relative to that GPIO port’s
base address:

Note that each GPIO module clock must be enabled before the registers can be programmed (see
page 261). There must be a delay of 3 system clocks after the GPIO module clock is enabled before
any GPIO module registers are accessed.
Important: All GPIO pins are configured as GPIOs and tri-stated by default (GPIOAFSEL=0,
GPIODEN=0, GPIOPDR=0, GPIOPUR=0, and GPIOPCTL=0, with the exception of the
pins shown in the table below. A Power-On-Reset (POR) or asserting RST puts the pins
back to their default state.

The default register type for the GPIOCR register is RO for all GPIO pins with the exception of the
NMI pin and the four JTAG/SWD pins (PB7 and PC[3:0]). These five pins are the only GPIOs that
are protected by the GPIOCR register. Because of this, the register type for GPIO Port B7 and GPIO
Port C[3:0] is R/W.
The default reset value for the GPIOCR register is 0x0000.00FF for all GPIO pins, with the exception
of the NMI pin and the four JTAG/SWD pins (PB7 and PC[3:0]). To ensure that the JTAG port is
not accidentally programmed as GPIO pins, the PC[3:0] pins default to non-committable. Similarly,
to ensure that the NMI pin is not accidentally programmed as a GPIO pin, the PB7 pin defaults to
non-committable. Because of this, the default reset value of GPIOCR for GPIO Port B is 0x0000.007F
while the default reset value of GPIOCR for Port C is 0x0000.00F0.

General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)
Register 1: GPIO Data (GPIODATA), offset 0x000
The GPIODATA register is the data register. In software control mode, values written in the
GPIODATA register are transferred onto the GPIO port pins if the respective pins have been
configured as outputs through the GPIO Direction (GPIODIR) register (see page 411).
In order to write to GPIODATA, the corresponding bits in the mask, resulting from the address bus
bits [9:2], must be set. Otherwise, the bit values remain unchanged by the write.
Similarly, the values read from this register are determined for each bit by the mask bit derived from
the address used to access the data register, bits [9:2]. Bits that are set in the address mask cause
the corresponding bits in GPIODATA to be read, and bits that are clear in the address mask cause
the corresponding bits in GPIODATA to be read as 0, regardless of their value.
A read from GPIODATA returns the last bit value written if the respective pins are configured as
outputs, or it returns the value on the corresponding input pin when these are configured as inputs.
All bits are cleared by a reset.

Description
Software should not rely on the value of a reserved bit. To provide
compatibility with future products, the value of a reserved bit should be
preserved across a read-modify-write operation.
GPIO Data
This register is virtually mapped to 256 locations in the address space.
To facilitate the reading and writing of data to these registers by
independent drivers, the data read from and written to the registers are
masked by the eight address lines [9:2]. Reads from this register return
its current state. Writes to this register only affect bits that are not masked
by ADDR[9:2] and are configured as outputs. See “Data Register
Operation” on page 403 for examples of reads and writes.

Register 2: GPIO Direction (GPIODIR), offset 0x400
The GPIODIR register is the data direction register. Setting a bit in the GPIODIR register configures
the corresponding pin to be an output, while clearing a bit configures the corresponding pin to be
an input. All bits are cleared by a reset, meaning all GPIO pins are inputs by default.

Register 4: GPIO Interrupt Both Edges (GPIOIBE), offset 0x408
The GPIOIBE register allows both edges to cause interrupts. When the corresponding bit in the
GPIO Interrupt Sense (GPIOIS) register (see page 412) is set to detect edges, setting a bit in the
GPIOIBE register configures the corresponding pin to detect both rising and falling edges, regardless
of the corresponding bit in the GPIO Interrupt Event (GPIOIEV) register (see page 414). Clearing
a bit configures the pin to be controlled by the GPIOIEV register. All bits are cleared by a reset.

Register 6: GPIO Interrupt Mask (GPIOIM), offset 0x410
The GPIOIM register is the interrupt mask register. Setting a bit in the GPIOIM register allows
interrupts that are generated by the corresponding pin to be sent to the interrupt controller on the
combined interrupt signal. Clearing a bit prevents an interrupt on the corresponding pin from being
sent to the interrupt controller. All bits are cleared by a reset.

Register 7: GPIO Raw Interrupt Status (GPIORIS), offset 0x414
The GPIORIS register is the raw interrupt status register. A bit in this register is set when an interrupt
condition occurs on the corresponding GPIO pin. If the corresponding bit in the GPIO Interrupt
Mask (GPIOIM) register (see page 415) is set, the interrupt is sent to the interrupt controller. Bits
read as zero indicate that corresponding input pins have not initiated an interrupt. A bit in this register
can be cleared by writing a 1 to the corresponding bit in the GPIO Interrupt Clear (GPIOICR)
register.

Register 8: GPIO Masked Interrupt Status (GPIOMIS), offset 0x418
The GPIOMIS register is the masked interrupt status register. If a bit is set in this register, the
corresponding interrupt has triggered an interrupt to the interrupt controller. If a bit is clear, either
no interrupt has been generated, or the interrupt is masked.
In addition to providing GPIO functionality, PB4 can also be used as an external trigger for the ADC.
If PB4 is configured as a non-masked interrupt pin (the appropriate bit of GPIOIM is set), an interrupt
for Port B is generated, and an external trigger signal is sent to the ADC. If the ADC Event
Multiplexer Select (ADCEMUX) register is configured to use the external trigger, an ADC conversion
is initiated. See page 626.
If no other Port B pins are being used to generate interrupts, the Interrupt 0-31 Set Enable (EN0)
register can disable the Port B interrupts, and the ADC interrupt can be used to read back the
converted data. Otherwise, the Port B interrupt handler must ignore and clear interrupts on PB4 and
wait for the ADC interrupt, or the ADC interrupt must be disabled in the EN0 register and the Port
B interrupt handler must poll the ADC registers until the conversion is completed. See page 117 for
more information.
GPIOMIS is the state of the interrupt after masking.

General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)
Register 10: GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL), offset 0x420
The GPIOAFSEL register is the mode control select register. If a bit is clear, the pin is used as a
GPIO and is controlled by the GPIO registers. Setting a bit in this register configures the
corresponding GPIO line to be controlled by an associated peripheral. Several possible peripheral
functions are multiplexed on each GPIO. The GPIO Port Control (GPIOPCTL) register is used to
select one of the possible functions. Table 19-5 on page 851 details which functions are muxed on
each GPIO pin. The reset value for this register is 0x0000.0000 for GPIO ports that are not listed
in the table below.
Important: All GPIO pins are configured as GPIOs and tri-stated by default (GPIOAFSEL=0,
GPIODEN=0, GPIOPDR=0, GPIOPUR=0, and GPIOPCTL=0, with the exception of the
pins shown in the table below. A Power-On-Reset (POR) or asserting RST puts the pins
back to their default state.

Caution – It is possible to create a software sequence that prevents the debugger from connecting to
the Stellaris microcontroller. If the program code loaded into flash immediately changes the JTAG pins
to their GPIO functionality, the debugger may not have enough time to connect and halt the controller
before the JTAG pin functionality switches. As a result, the debugger may be locked out of the part.
This issue can be avoided with a software routine that restores JTAG functionality based on an external
or software trigger.
The GPIO commit control registers provide a layer of protection against accidental programming of
critical hardware peripherals. Protection is provided for the NMI pin (PB7) and the four JTAG/SWD
pins (PC[3:0]). Writes to protected bits of the GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL)
register (see page 420), GPIO Pull Up Select (GPIOPUR) register (see page 426), GPIO Pull-Down
Select (GPIOPDR) register (see page 428), and GPIO Digital Enable (GPIODEN) register (see
page 431) are not committed to storage unless the GPIO Lock (GPIOLOCK) register (see page 433)
has been unlocked and the appropriate bits of the GPIO Commit (GPIOCR) register (see page 434)
have been set.
When using the I2C module, in addition to setting the GPIOAFSEL register bits for the I2C clock
and data pins, the data pins should be set to open drain using the GPIO Open Drain Select
(GPIOODR) register (see examples in “Initialization and Configuration” on page 405).

Register 13: GPIO 8-mA Drive Select (GPIODR8R), offset 0x508
The GPIODR8R register is the 8-mA drive control register. Each GPIO signal in the port can be
individually configured without affecting the other pads. When setting the DRV8 bit for a GPIO signal,
the corresponding DRV2 bit in the GPIODR2R register and DRV4 bit in the GPIODR4R register are
automatically cleared by hardware. The 8-mA setting is also used for high-current operation.
Note:
There is no configuration difference between 8-mA and high-current operation. The additional
current capacity results from a shift in the VOH/VOL levels. See “Recommended Operating
Conditions” on page 886 for further information.

Register 14: GPIO Open Drain Select (GPIOODR), offset 0x50C
The GPIOODR register is the open drain control register. Setting a bit in this register enables the
open-drain configuration of the corresponding GPIO pad. When open-drain mode is enabled, the
corresponding bit should also be set in the GPIO Digital Enable (GPIODEN) register (see page 431).
Corresponding bits in the drive strength and slew rate control registers (GPIODR2R, GPIODR4R,
GPIODR8R, and GPIOSLR) can be set to achieve the desired rise and fall times. The GPIO acts
as an input if the corresponding bit in the GPIODIR register is cleared. If open drain is selected while
the GPIO is configured as an input, the GPIO will remain an input and the open-drain selection has
no effect until the GPIO is changed to an output.
When using the I2C module, in addition to configuring the pin to open drain, the GPIO Alternate
Function Select (GPIOAFSEL) register bits for the I2C clock and data pins should be set (see
examples in “Initialization and Configuration” on page 405).

Register 15: GPIO Pull-Up Select (GPIOPUR), offset 0x510
The GPIOPUR register is the pull-up control register. When a bit is set, a weak pull-up resistor on
the corresponding GPIO signal is enabled. Setting a bit in GPIOPUR automatically clears the
corresponding bit in the GPIO Pull-Down Select (GPIOPDR) register (see page 428). Write access
to this register is protected with the GPIOCR register. Bits in GPIOCR that are cleared prevent writes
to the equivalent bit in this register.
Important: All GPIO pins are configured as GPIOs and tri-stated by default (GPIOAFSEL=0,
GPIODEN=0, GPIOPDR=0, GPIOPUR=0, and GPIOPCTL=0, with the exception of the
pins shown in the table below. A Power-On-Reset (POR) or asserting RST puts the pins
back to their default state.

Register 18: GPIO Digital Enable (GPIODEN), offset 0x51C
Note:
Pins configured as digital inputs are Schmitt-triggered.
The GPIODEN register is the digital enable register. By default, all GPIO signals except those listed
below are configured out of reset to be undriven (tristate). Their digital function is disabled; they do
not drive a logic value on the pin and they do not allow the pin voltage into the GPIO receiver. To
use the pin as a digital input or output (either GPIO or alternate function), the corresponding GPIODEN
bit must be set.
Important: All GPIO pins are configured as GPIOs and tri-stated by default (GPIOAFSEL=0,
GPIODEN=0, GPIOPDR=0, GPIOPUR=0, and GPIOPCTL=0, with the exception of the
pins shown in the table below. A Power-On-Reset (POR) or asserting RST puts the pins
back to their default state.

Register 19: GPIO Lock (GPIOLOCK), offset 0x520
The GPIOLOCK register enables write access to the GPIOCR register (see page 434). Writing
0x4C4F.434B to the GPIOLOCK register unlocks the GPIOCR register. Writing any other value to
the GPIOLOCK register re-enables the locked state. Reading the GPIOLOCK register returns the
lock status rather than the 32-bit value that was previously written. Therefore, when write accesses
are disabled, or locked, reading the GPIOLOCK register returns 0x0000.0001. When write accesses
are enabled, or unlocked, reading the GPIOLOCK register returns 0x0000.0000.

A write of the value 0x4C4F.434B unlocks the GPIO Commit (GPIOCR)
register for write access.A write of any other value or a write to the
GPIOCR register reapplies the lock, preventing any register updates.
A read of this register returns the following values:
Value Description
0x1
The GPIOCR register is locked and may not be modified.
0x0
The GPIOCR register is unlocked and may be modified.

Register 20: GPIO Commit (GPIOCR), offset 0x524
The GPIOCR register is the commit register. The value of the GPIOCR register determines which
bits of the GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, and GPIODEN registers are committed when a
write to these registers is performed. If a bit in the GPIOCR register is cleared, the data being written
to the corresponding bit in the GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, or GPIODEN registers cannot
be committed and retains its previous value. If a bit in the GPIOCR register is set, the data being
written to the corresponding bit of the GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, or GPIODEN registers
is committed to the register and reflects the new value.
The contents of the GPIOCR register can only be modified if the status in the GPIOLOCK register
is unlocked. Writes to the GPIOCR register are ignored if the status in the GPIOLOCK register is
locked.
Important: This register is designed to prevent accidental programming of the registers that control
connectivity to the NMI and JTAG/SWD debug hardware. By initializing the bits of the
GPIOCR register to 0 for PB7 and PC[3:0], the NMI and JTAG/SWD debug port can
only be converted to GPIOs through a deliberate set of writes to the GPIOLOCK,
GPIOCR, and the corresponding registers.
Because this protection is currently only implemented on the NMI and JTAG/SWD pins
on PB7 and PC[3:0], all of the other bits in the GPIOCR registers cannot be written
with 0x0. These bits are hardwired to 0x1, ensuring that it is always possible to commit
new values to the GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, or GPIODEN register bits of
these other pins.

GPIO Commit
Value Description
1
The corresponding GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, or

0
The corresponding GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, or

Note:
The default register type for the GPIOCR register is RO for
all GPIO pins with the exception of the NMI pin and the four
JTAG/SWD pins (PB7 and PC[3:0]). These five pins are the
only GPIOs that are protected by the GPIOCR register.
Because of this, the register type for GPIO Port B7 and GPIO
Port C[3:0] is R/W.
The default reset value for the GPIOCR register is
0x0000.00FF for all GPIO pins, with the exception of the NMI
pin and the four JTAG/SWD pins (PB7 and PC[3:0]). To
ensure that the JTAG port is not accidentally programmed as
GPIO pins, the PC[3:0] pins default to non-committable.
Similarly, to ensure that the NMI pin is not accidentally
programmed as a GPIO pin, the PB7 pin defaults to
non-committable. Because of this, the default reset value of
GPIOCR for GPIO Port B is 0x0000.007F while the default
reset value of GPIOCR for Port C is 0x0000.00F0.

Register 21: GPIO Analog Mode Select (GPIOAMSEL), offset 0x528
Important: This register is only valid for ports D and E; the corresponding base addresses for the
remaining ports are not valid.
If any pin is to be used as an ADC input, the appropriate bit in GPIOAMSEL must be
set to disable the analog isolation circuit.
The GPIOAMSEL register controls isolation circuits to the analog side of a unified I/O pad. Because
the GPIOs may be driven by a 5-V source and affect analog operation, analog circuitry requires
isolation from the pins when they are not used in their analog function.
Each bit of this register controls the isolation circuitry for the corresponding GPIO signal. For
information on which GPIO pins can be used for ADC functions, refer to Table 19-5 on page 851.

Register 22: GPIO Port Control (GPIOPCTL), offset 0x52C
The GPIOPCTL register is used in conjunction with the GPIOAFSEL register and selects the specific
peripheral signal for each GPIO pin when using the alternate function mode. Most bits in the
GPIOAFSEL register are cleared on reset, therefore most GPIO pins are configured as GPIOs by
default. When a bit is set in the GPIOAFSEL register, the corresponding GPIO signal is controlled
by an associated peripheral. The GPIOPCTL register selects one out of a set of peripheral functions
for each GPIO, providing additional flexibility in signal definition. For information on the defined
encodings for the bit fields in this register, refer to Table 19-5 on page 851. The reset value for this
register is 0x0000.0000 for GPIO ports that are not listed in the table below.
Note:
If the same signal is assigned to two different GPIO port pins, the signal is assigned to the
port with the lowest letter and the assignment to the higher letter port is ignored.
Important: All GPIO pins are configured as GPIOs and tri-stated by default (GPIOAFSEL=0,
GPIODEN=0, GPIOPDR=0, GPIOPUR=0, and GPIOPCTL=0, with the exception of the
pins shown in the table below. A Power-On-Reset (POR) or asserting RST puts the pins
back to their default state.

External Peripheral Interface (EPI)

External Peripheral Interface (EPI)
The External Peripheral Interface is a high-speed parallel bus for external peripherals or memory.
It has several modes of operation to interface gluelessly to many types of external devices. The
External Peripheral Interface is similar to a standard microprocessor address/data bus, except that
it must typically be connected to just one type of external device. Enhanced capabilities include
µDMA support, clocking control and support for external FIFO buffers.
The EPI has the following features:
■ 8/16/32-bit dedicated parallel bus for external peripherals and memory
■ Memory interface supports contiguous memory access independent of data bus width, thus
enabling code execution directly from SDRAM, SRAM and Flash memory
■ Blocking and non-blocking reads
■ Separates processor from timing details through use of an internal write FIFO
■ Efficient transfers using Micro Direct Memory Access Controller (µDMA)
– Separate channels for read and write
– Read channel request asserted by programmable levels on the internal non-blocking read
FIFO (NBRFIFO)
– Write channel request asserted by empty on the internal write FIFO (WFIFO)
The EPI supports three primary functional modes: Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory
(SDRAM) mode, Traditional Host-Bus mode, and General-Purpose mode. The EPI module also
provides custom GPIOs; however, unlike regular GPIOs, the EPI module uses a FIFO in the same
way as a communication mechanism and is speed-controlled using clocking.
■ Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) mode
– Supports x16 (single data rate) SDRAM at up to 50 MHz
– Supports low-cost SDRAMs up to 64 MB (512 megabits)
– Includes automatic refresh and access to all banks/rows
– Includes a Sleep/Standby mode to keep contents active with minimal power draw
– Multiplexed address/data interface for reduced pin count
■ Host-Bus mode
– Traditional x8 and x16 MCU bus interface capabilities
– Similar device compatibility options as PIC, ATmega, 8051, and others
– Access to SRAM, NOR Flash memory, and other devices, with up to 1 MB of addressing in
unmultiplexed mode and 256 MB in multiplexed mode (512 MB in Host-Bus 16 mode with
no byte selects)
452
January 21, 2012
Texas Instruments-Production Data
®
Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
– Support of both muxed and de-muxed address and data
– Access to a range of devices supporting the non-address FIFO x8 and x16 interface variant,
with support for external FIFO (XFIFO) EMPTY and FULL signals
– Speed controlled, with read and write data wait-state counters
– Chip select modes include ALE, CSn, Dual CSn and ALE with dual CSn
– Manual chip-enable (or use extra address pins)
■ General-Purpose mode
– Wide parallel interfaces for fast communications with CPLDs and FPGAs
– Data widths up to 32 bits
– Data rates up to 150 MB/second
– Optional "address" sizes from 4 bits to 20 bits
– Optional clock output, read/write strobes, framing (with counter-based size), and clock-enable
input
■ General parallel GPIO
– 1 to 32 bits, FIFOed with speed control
– Useful for custom peripherals or for digital data acquisition and actuator controls

Signal Description
The following table lists the external signals of the EPI controller and describes the function of each.
The EPI controller signals are alternate functions for GPIO signals and default to be GPIO signals
at reset. The column in the table below titled "Pin Mux/Pin Assignment" lists the GPIO pin placement
for the EPI signals. The AFSEL bit in the GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL) register
(page 420) should be set to choose the EPI controller function. The number in parentheses is the
encoding that must be programmed into the PMCn field in the GPIO Port Control (GPIOPCTL)
register (page 438) to assign the EPI signals to the specified GPIO port pins. For more information
on configuring GPIOs, see “General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)” on page 396.

Functional Description
The EPI controller provides a glueless, programmable interface to a variety of common external
peripherals such as SDRAM x 16, Host Bus x8 and x16 devices, RAM, NOR Flash memory, CPLDs
and FPGAs. In addition, the EPI controller provides custom GPIO that can use a FIFO with speed
control by using either the internal write FIFO (WFIFO) or the non-blocking read FIFO (NBRFIFO).
The WFIFO can hold 4 words of data that are written to the external interface at the rate controlled
by the EPI Main Baud Rate (EPIBAUD) register. The NBRFIFO can hold 8 words of data and
samples at the rate controlled by the EPIBAUD register. The EPI controller provides predictable
operation and thus has an advantage over regular GPIO which has more variable timing due to
on-chip bus arbitration and delays across bus bridges. Blocking reads stall the CPU until the
transaction completes. Non-blocking reads are performed in the background and allow the processor
to continue operation. In addition, write data can also be stored in the WFIFO to allow multiple writes
with no stalls.
Note:
Both the WTAV bit field in the EPIWFIFOCNT register and the WBUSY bit in the EPISTAT
register must be polled to determine if there is a current write transaction from the WFIFO.
If both of these bits are clear, then a new bus access may begin.
Main read and write operations can be performed in subsets of the range 0x6000.0000 to
0xDFFF.FFFF. A read from an address mapped location uses the offset and size to control the
address and size of the external operation. When performing a multi-value load, the read is done
as a burst (when available) to maximize performance. A write to an address mapped location uses
456

the offset and size to control the address and size of the external operation. When performing a
multi-value store, the write is done as a burst (when available) to maximize performance.
NAND Flash memory (x8) can be read natively. Automatic programming support is not provided;
programming must be done by the user following the manufacturer's protocol. Automatic page ECC
is also not supported, but can be performed in software.
10.3.1
Non-Blocking Reads
The EPI Controller supports a special kind of read called a non-blocking read, also referred to as a
posted read. Where a normal read stalls the processor or μDMA until the data is returned, a
non-blocking read is performed in the background.
A non-blocking read is configured by writing the start address into a EPIRADDRn register, the size
per transaction into a EPIRSIZEn register, and then the count of operations into a EPIRPSTDn
register. After each read is completed, the result is written into the NBRFIFO and the EPIRADDRn
register is incremented by the size (1, 2, or 4).
If the NBRFIFO is filled, then the reads pause until space is made available. The NBRFIFO can be
configured to interrupt the processor or trigger the μDMA based on fullness using the EPIFIFOLVL
register. By using the trigger/interrupt method, the μDMA (or processor) can keep space available
in the NBRFIFO and allow the reads to continue unimpeded.
When performing non-blocking reads, the SDRAM controller issues two additional read transactions
after the burst request is terminated. The data for these additional transfers is discarded. This
situation is transparent to the user other than the additional EPI bus activity and can safely be
ignored.
Two non-blocking read register sets are available to allow sequencing and ping-pong use. When
one completes, the other then activates. So, for example, if 20 words are to be read from 0x100
and 10 words from 0x200, the EPIRPSTD0 register can be set up with the read from 0x100 (with a
count of 20), and the EPIRPSTD1 register can be set up with the read from 0x200 (with a count of
10). When EPIRPSTD0 finishes (count goes to 0), the EPIRPSTD1 register then starts its operation.
The NBRFIFO has then passed 30 values. When used with the μDMA, it may transfer 30 values
(simple sequence), or the primary/alternate model may be used to handle the first 20 in one way
and the second 10 in another. It is also possible to reload the EPIRPSTD0 register when it is finished
(and the EPIRPSTD1 register is active); thereby, keeping the interface constantly busy.
To cancel a non-blocking read, the EPIRPSTDn register is cleared. Care must be taken, however
if the register set was active to drain away any values read into the NBRFIFO and ensure that any
read in progress is allowed to complete.
To ensure that the cancel is complete, the following algorithm is used (using the EPIRPSTD0 register
for example):
EPIRPSTD0 = 0;
while ((EPISTAT & 0x11) == 0x10)
; // we are active and busy
// if here, then other one is active or interface no longer busy
cnt = (EPIRADDR0 – original_address) / EPIRSIZE0; // count of values read
cnt -= values_read_so_far;
// cnt is now number left in FIFO
while (cnt--)
January 21, 2012
457

External Peripheral Interface (EPI)
value = EPIREADFIFO; // drain
The above algorithm can be optimized in code; however, the important point is to wait for the cancel
to complete because the external interface could have been in the process of reading a value when
the cancel came in, and it must be allowed to complete.
10.3.2
DMA Operation
The µDMA can be used to achieve maximum transfer rates on the EPI through the NBRFIFO and
the WFIFO. The µDMA has one channel for write and one for read. The write channel copies values
to the WFIFO when the WFIFO is at the level specified by the EPI FIFO Level Selects (EPIFIFOLVL)
register. The non-blocking read channel copies values from the NBRFIFO when the NBRFIFO is
at the level specified by the EPIFIFOLVL register. For non-blocking reads, the start address, the
size per transaction, and the count of elements must be programmed in the µDMA. Note that both
non-blocking read register sets can be used, and they fill the NBRFIFO such that one runs to
completion, then the next one starts (they do not interleave). Using the NBRFIFO provides the best
possible transfer rate.
For blocking reads, the µDMA software channel (or another unused channel) is used for
memory-to-memory transfers (or memory to peripheral, where some other peripheral is used). In
this situation, the µDMA stalls until the read is complete and is not able to service another channel
until the read is done. As a result, the arbitration size should normally be programmed to one access
at a time. The µDMA controller can also transfer from and to the NBRFIFO and the WFIFO using
the µDMA software channel in memory mode, however, the µDMA is stalled once the NBRFIFO is
empty or the WFIFO is full. Note that when the µDMA controller is stalled, the core continues
operation. See “Micro Direct Memory Access (μDMA)” on page 338 for more information on configuring
the µDMA.
The size of the FIFOs must be taken into consideration when configuring the µDMA to transfer data
to and from the EPI. The arbitration size should be 4 or less when writing to EPI address space and
8 or less when reading from EPI address space.
10.4
Initialization and Configuration
To enable and initialize the EPI controller, the following steps are necessary:
1. Enable the EPI module using the RCGC1 register. See page 252.
2. Enable the clock to the appropriate GPIO module via the RCGC2 register. See page 261. To
find out which GPIO port to enable, refer to “Signal Description” on page 454.
3. Set the GPIO AFSEL bits for the appropriate pins. See page 420. To determine which GPIOs to
configure, see Table 19-4 on page 845.
4. Configure the GPIO current level and/or slew rate as specified for the mode selected. See
page 422 and page 430.
5. Configure the PMCn fields in the GPIOPCTL register to assign the EPI signals to the appropriate
pins. See page 438 and Table 19-5 on page 851.
6. Select the mode for the EPI block to SDRAM, HB8, HB16, or general parallel use, using the
MODE field in the EPI Configuration (EPICFG) register. Set the mode-specific details (if needed)
using the appropriate mode configuration EPI Host Bus Configuration (EPIHBnCFGn) registers
for the desired chip-select configuration. Set the EPI Main Baud Rate (EPIBAUD) register if
the baud rate must be slower than the system clock rate.

Stellaris LM3S1B21 Microcontroller
7. Configure the address mapping using the EPI Address Map (EPIADDRMAP) register. The
selected start address and range is dependent on the type of external device and maximum
address (as appropriate). For example, for a 512-megabit SDRAM, program the ERADR field to
0x1 for address 0x6000.0000 or 0x2 for address 0x8000.0000; and program the ERSZ field to
0x3 for 256 MB. If using General-Purpose mode and no address at all, program the EPADR field
to 0x1 for address 0xA000.0000 or 0x2 for address 0xC000.0000; and program the EPSZ field
to 0x0 for 256 bytes.
8. To read or write directly, use the mapped address area (configured with the EPIADDRMAP
register). Up to 4 or 5 writes can be performed at once without blocking. Each read is blocked
until the value is retrieved.
9. To perform a non-blocking read, see “Non-Blocking Reads” on page 457.
The following sub-sections describe the initialization and configuration for each of the modes of
operation. Care must be taken to initialize everything properly to ensure correct operation. Control
of the GPIO states is also important, as changes may cause the external device to interpret pin
states as actions or commands (see “Register Descriptions” on page 409). Normally, a pull-up or
pull-down is needed on the board to at least control the chip-select or chip-enable as the Stellaris
GPIOs come out of reset in tri-state.
10.4.1
SDRAM Mode
When activating the SDRAM mode, it is important to consider a few points:
1. Generally, it takes over 100 μs from when the mode is activated to when the first operation is
allowed. The SDRAM controller begins the SDRAM initialization sequence as soon as the mode
is selected and enabled via the EPICFG register. It is important that the GPIOs are properly
configured before the SDRAM mode is enabled, as the EPI controller is relying on the GPIO
block's ability to drive the pins immediately. As part of the initialization sequence, the LOAD
MODE REGISTER command is automatically sent to the SDRAM with a value of 0x27, which
sets a CAS latency of 2 and a full page burst length.
2. The INITSEQ bit in the EPI Status (EPISTAT) register can be checked to determine when the
initialization sequence is complete.
3. When using a frequency range and/or refresh value other than the default value, it is important
to configure the FREQ and RFSH fields in the EPI SDRAM Configuration (EPISDRAMCFG)
register shortly after activating the mode. After the 100-μs startup time, the EPI block must be
configured properly to keep the SDRAM contents stable.
4. The SLEEP bit in the EPISDRAMCFG register may be configured to put the SDRAM into a
low-power self-refreshing state. It is important to note that the SDRAM mode must not be
disabled once enabled, or else the SDRAM is no longer clocked and the contents are lost.
5. Before entering SLEEP mode, make sure all non-blocking reads and normal reads and writes
have completed. If the system is running at 30 to 50 MHz, wait 2 EPI clocks after clearing the
SLEEP bit before executing non-blocking reads, or normal reads and writes. If the system is
configured to greater than 50 MHz, wait 5 EPI clocks before read and write transactions. For
all other configurations, wait 1 EPI clock.
The SIZE field of the EPISDRAMCFG register must be configured correctly based on the amount
of SDRAM in the system.

External Peripheral Interface (EPI)
The FREQ field must be configured according to the value that represents the range being used.
Based on the range selected, the number of external clocks used between certain operations (for
example, PRECHARGE or ACTIVATE) is determined. If a higher frequency is given than is used,
then the only downside is that the peripheral is slower (uses more cycles for these delays). If a lower
frequency is given, incorrect operation occurs.
See “External Peripheral Interface (EPI)” on page 897 for timing details for the SDRAM mode.
10.4.1.1
External Signal Connections
Table 10-3 on page 460 defines how EPI module signals should be connected to SDRAMs. The
table applies when using a SDRAM up to 512 megabits. Note that the EPI signals must use 8-mA
drive when interfacing to SDRAM, see page 424. Any unused EPI controller signals can be used as
GPIOs or another alternate function.

10.4.1.2
Refresh Configuration
The refresh count is based on the external clock speed and the number of rows per bank as well
as the refresh period. The RFSH field represents how many external clock cycles remain before an
AUTO-REFRESH is required. The normal formula is:
RFSH = (tRefresh_us / number_rows) / ext_clock_period
A refresh period is normally 64 ms, or 64000 μs. The number of rows is normally 4096 or 8192. The
ext_clock_period is a value expressed in μsec and is derived by dividing 1000 by the clock speed
expressed in MHz. So, 50 MHz is 1000/50=20 ns, or 0.02 μs. A typical SDRAM is 4096 rows per
bank if the system clock is running at 50 MHz with an EPIBAUD register value of 0:
RFSH = (64000/4096) / 0.02 = 15.625 μs / 0.02 μs = 781.25
The default value in the RFSH field is 750 decimal or 0x2EE to allow for a margin of safety and
providing 15 μs per refresh. It is important to note that this number should always be smaller or
equal to what is required by the above equation. For example, if running the external clock at 25
MHz (40 ns per clock period), 390 is the highest number that may be used. Note that the external
clock may be 25 MHz when the system clock is 25 MHz or when the system clock is 50 MHz and
configuring the COUNT0 field in the EPIBAUD register to 1 (divide by 2).
If a number larger than allowed is used, the SDRAM is not refreshed often enough, and data is lost.
10.4.1.3
Bus Interface Speed
The EPI Controller SDRAM interface can operate up to 50 MHz. The COUNT0 field in the EPIBAUD
register configures the speed of the EPI clock. For system clock (SysClk) speeds up to 50 MHz, the
COUNT0 field can be 0x0000, and the SDRAM interface can run at the same speed as SysClk.
However, if SysClk is running at higher speeds, the bus interface can run only as fast as half speed,
and the COUNT0 field must be configured to at least 0x0001.
10.4.1.4
Non-Blocking Read Cycle
Figure 10-2 on page 462 shows a non-blocking read cycle of n halfwords; n can be any number
greater than or equal to 1. The cycle begins with the Activate command and the row address on the
EPI0S[15:0] signals. With the programmed CAS latency of 2, the Read command with the column
address on the EPI0S[15:0] signals follows after 2 clock cycles. Following one more NOP cycle,
data is read in on the EPI0S[15:0] signals on every rising clock edge. The Burst Terminate
command is issued during the cycle when the next-to-last halfword is read in. The DQMH and DQML
signals are deasserted after the last halfword of data is received; the CSn signal deasserts on the
following clock cycle, signaling the end of the read cycle. At least one clock period of inactivity
separates any two SDRAM cycles.

Write Cycle
Figure 10-4 on page 463 shows a write cycle of n halfwords; n can be any number greater than or
equal to 1. The cycle begins with the Activate command and the row address on the EPI0S[15:0]
signals. With the programmed CAS latency of 2, the Write command with the column address on
the EPI0S[15:0] signals follows after 2 clock cycles. When writing to SDRAMs, the Write command
is presented with the first halfword of data. Because the address lines and the data lines are
multiplexed, the column address is modified to be (programmed address -1). During the Write
command, the DQMH and DQML signals are high, so no data is written to the SDRAM. On the next
clock, the DQMH and DQML signals are asserted, and the data associated with the programmed
address is written. The Burst Terminate command occurs during the clock cycle following the write
of the last halfword of data. The WEn, DQMH, DQML, and CSn signals are deasserted after the
last halfword of data is received, signaling the end of the access. At least one clock period of inactivity
separates any two SDRAM cycles.

10.4.2
Host Bus Mode
Host Bus supports the traditional 8-bit and 16-bit interfaces popularized by the 8051 devices and
SRAM devices. This interface is asynchronous and uses strobe pins to control activity. Addressable
memory can be doubled using Host Bus-16 mode as it performs half-word accesses. The EPI0S0
is the LSB of the address and is equivalent to the internal Cortex-M3 A1 address. EPI0S0 should
be connected to A0 of 16-bit memories.
10.4.2.1
Control Pins
The main three strobes are Address Latch Enable (ALE), Write (WRn), and Read (RDn, sometimes
called OEn). Note that the timings are designed for older logic and so are hold-time vs. setup-time
specific. The polarity of the read and write strobes can be active High or active Low by clearing or
setting the RDHIGH and WRHIGH bits in the EPI Host-Bus n Configuration 2 (EPIHBnCFG2)
register.
The ALE can be changed to an active-low chip select signal, CSn, through the EPIHBnCFG2 register.
The ALE is best used for Host-Bus muxed mode in which EPI address and data pins are shared.
All Host-Bus accesses have an address phase followed by a data phase. The ALE indicates to an
January 21, 2012
463
Texas Instruments-Production Data
External Peripheral Interface (EPI)
external latch to capture the address then hold it until the data phase. CSn is best used for Host-Bus
unmuxed mode in which EPI address and data pins are separate. The CSn indicates when the
address and data phases of a read or write access are occurring. Both the ALE and the CSn modes
can be enhanced to access external devices using settings in the EPIHBnCFG2 register. Wait states
can be added to the data phase of the access using the WRWS and RDWS bits in the EPIHBnCFG2
register.
For FIFO mode, the ALE is not used, and two input holds are optionally supported to gate input and
output to what the XFIFO can handle.
Host-Bus 8 and Host-Bus 16 modes are very configurable. The user has the ability to connect
external devices to the EPI signals, as well as control whether byte select signals are provided in
HB16 mode. These capabilities depend on the configuration of the MODE field in the EPIHBnCFG
register the CSCFG fieldin the EPIHBnCFG2 register, and the BSEL bit in the EPIHB16CFG register.
The CSCFGEXT bit extends the chip select configuration possibilities by providing the most significant
bit of the CSCFG field.
If one of the Dual-Chip-Select modes is selected (CSCFG is 0x2 or 0x3 in the EPIHBnCFG2 register),
both chip selects can share the peripheral or the memory space, or one chip select can use the
peripheral space and the other can use the memory space. In the EPIADDRMAP register, if the
EPADR field is not 0x0 and the ERADR field is 0x0, then the address specified by EPADR is used for
both chip selects, with CS0n being asserted when the MSB of the address range is 0 and CS1n
being asserted when the MSB of the address range is 1. If the ERADR field is not 0x0 and the EPADR
field is 0x0, then the address specified by ERADR is used for both chip selects, with the MSB
performing the same delineation. If both the EPADR and the ERADR are not 0x0, then CS0n is asserted
for either address range defined by EPADR and CS1n is asserted for either address range defined
by ERADR.
If the CSBAUD bit in the EPIHBnCFG2 register is set in Dual-chip select mode, the 2 chip selects
can use different clock frequencies. If the CSBAUD bit is clear, both chip selects use the clock
frequency, wait states, and strobe polarity defined for CS0n.
When BSEL=1 in the EPIHB16CFG register, byte select signals are provided, so byte-sized data
can be read and written at any address, however these signals reduce the available address width
by 2 pins. The byte select signals are active Low. BSEL0n corresponds to the LSB of the halfword,
and BSEL1n corresponds to the MSB of the halfword.
When BSEL=0, byte reads and writes at odd addresses only act on the even byte, and byte writes
at even addresses write invalid values into the odd byte. As a result, accesses should be made as
half-words (16-bits) or words (32-bits). In C/C++, programmers should use only short int and long
int for accesses. Also, because data accesses in HB16 mode with no byte selects are on 2-byte
boundaries, the available address space is doubled. For example, 28 bits of address accesses 512
MB in this mode. Table 10-4 on page 464 shows the capabilities of the HB8 and HB16 modes as
well as the available address bits with the possible combinations of these bits.
Although the EPI0S31 signal can be configured for the EPI clock signal in Host-Bus mode, it is not
required and should be configured as a GPIO to reduce EMI in the system.

a. If byte selects are not used, data accesses are on 2-byte boundaries. As a result, the available address space is doubled.
b. Two EPI signals are used for byte selects, reducing the available address space by two bits.
Table 10-5 on page 465 shows how the EPI[31:0] signals function while in Host-Bus 8 mode.
Notice that the signal configuration changes based on the address/data mode selected by the MODE
field in the EPIHB8CFG2 register and on the chip select configuration selected by the CSCFG field
in the same register.
Although the EPI0S31 signal can be configured for the EPI clock signal in Host-Bus mode, it is not
required and should be configured as a GPIO to reduce EMI in the system. Any unused EPI controller
signals can be used as GPIOs or another alternate function.

transitions are normally ½ the baud rate (COUNT0 = 1) because the EPI block forces data vs. control
to change on alternating clocks. When using dual chip selects, each chip select can access the bus
using differing baud rates by setting the CSBAUD bit in the EPIHBnCFG2 register. In this case, the
COUNT0 field controls the CS0n transactions, and the COUNT1 field controls the CS1n transactions.
Additionally, the Host-Bus mode provides read and write wait states for the data portion to support
different classes of device. These wait states stretch the data period (hold the rising edge of data
strobe) and may be used in all four sub-modes. The wait states are set using the WRWS and RDWS
bits in the EPI Host-Bus n Configuration (EPIHBnCFG) register.
10.4.2.4
Sub-Modes of Host Bus 8/16
The EPI controller supports four variants of the Host-Bus model using 8 or 16 bits of data in all four
cases. The four sub-modes are selected using the MODE bits in the EPIHBnCFG register, and are:
1. Address and data are muxed. This scheme is used by many 8051 devices, some Microchip PIC
parts, and some ATmega parts. When used for standard SRAMs, a latch must be used between
the microcontroller and the SRAM. This sub-mode is provided for compatibility with existing
devices that support data transfers without a latch (that is, CPLDs). In general, the de-muxed
sub-mode should normally be used. The ALE configuration should be used in this mode, as all
Host-Bus accesses have an address phase followed by a data phase. The ALE indicates to an
external latch to capture the address then hold until the data phase. The ALE configuration is
controlled by configuring the CSCFG field to be 0x0 in the EPIHBnCFG2 register. The ALE can
be enhanced to access two external devices with two separate CSn signals. By configuring the
CSCFG field to be 0x3 in the EPIHBnCFG2 register, EPI0S30 functions as ALE, EPI0S27
functions as CS1n, and EPI0S26 functions as CS0n. The CSn is best used for Host-Bus
unmuxed mode, in which EPI address and data pins are separate. The CSn indicates when the
address and data phases of a read or write access are occurring.
2. Address and data are separate with 8 or 16 bits of data and up to 20 bits of address (1 MB).
This scheme is used by more modern 8051 devices, as well as some PIC and ATmega parts.
This mode is generally used with real SRAMs, many EEPROMs, and many NOR Flash memory
devices. Note that there is no hardware command write support for Flash memory devices; this
mode should only be used for Flash memory devices programmed at manufacturing time. If a
Flash memory device must be written and does not support a direct programming model, the
command mechanism must be performed in software. The CSn configuration should be used
in this mode. The CSn signal indicates when the address and data phases of a read or write
access is occurring. The CSn configuration is controlled by configuring the CSCFG field to be
0x1 in the EPIHBnCFG2 register.
3. Continuous read mode where address and data are separate. This sub-mode is used for real
SRAMs which can be read more quickly by only changing the address (and not using RDn/OEn
strobing). In this sub-mode, reads are performed by keeping the read mode selected (output
enable is asserted) and then changing the address pins. The data pins are changed by the
SRAM after the address pins change. For example, to read data from address 0x100 and then
0x101, the EPI controller asserts the output-enable signal and then configures the address pins
to 0x100; the EPI controller then captures what is on the data pins and increments A0 to 1 (so
the address is now 0x101); the EPI controller then captures what is on the data pins. Note that
this mode consumes higher power because the SRAM must continuously drive the data pins.
This mode is not practical in HB16 mode for normal SRAMs because there are generally not
enough address bits available. Writes are not permitted in this mode.
4. FIFO mode uses 8 or 16 bits of data, removes ALE and address pins and optionally adds external
XFIFO FULL/EMPTY flag inputs. This scheme is used by many devices, such as radios,
470

communication devices (including USB2 devices), and some FPGA configurations (FIFO through
block RAM). This sub-mode provides the data side of the normal Host-Bus interface, but is
paced by the FIFO control signals. It is important to consider that the XFIFO FULL/EMPTY
control signals may stall the interface and could have an impact on blocking read latency from
the processor or μDMA.
The WORD bit in the EPIHBnCFG2 register can be set to use memory more efficiently. By default,
the EPI controller uses data bits [7:0] for Host-Bus 8 accesses or bits [15:0] for Host-Bus 16 accesses.
When the WORD bit is set, the EPI controller can automatically route bytes of data onto the correct
byte lanes such that bytes or words of data can be transferred on the correct byte or half-word bits
on the entire bus. For example, the most significant byte of data will be transferred on bits [31:28]
in host-bus 8 mode and the most significant word of data will be transferred on bits [31:16] of
Host-Bus 16 mode. In addition, for the three modes above (1, 2, 4) that the Host-Bus 16 mode
supports, byte select signals can be optionally implemented by setting the BSEL bit in the
EPIHB16CFG register.
Note:
Byte accesses should not be attempted if the BSEL bit has not been enabled in Host-Bus
16 Mode.
See “External Peripheral Interface (EPI)” on page 897 for timing details for the Host-Bus mode.
10.4.2.5
Bus Operation
Bus operation is the same in Host-Bus 8 and Host-Bus 16 modes and is asynchronous. Timing
diagrams show both ALE and CSn operation, but only one signal or the other is used in all modes
except for ALE with dual chip selects mode (CSCFG field is 0x3 in the EPIHBnCFG2 register).
Address and data on write cycles are held after the CSn signal is deasserted. The optional HB16
byte select signals have the same timing as the address signals. If wait states are required in the
bus access, they can be inserted during the data phase of the access using the WRWS and RDWS
bits in the EPIHBnCFG2 register. Each wait state adds 2 EPI clock cycles to the duration of the
WRn or RDn strobe. During idle cycles, the address and muxed address data signals maintain the
state of the last cycle.
Figure 10-6 on page 471 shows a basic Host-Bus read cycle. Figure 10-7 on page 472 shows a basic
Host-Bus write cycle. Both of these figures show address and data signals in the non-multiplexed
mode (MODE field ix 0x1 in the EPIHBnCFG register).

FIFO mode accesses are the same as normal read and write accesses, except that the ALE signal
and address pins are not present. Two input signals can be used to indicate when the XFIFO is full
or empty to gate transactions and avoid overruns and underruns. The FFULL and FEMPTY signals
are synchronized and must be recognized as asserted by the microcontroller for 2 system clocks
before they affect transaction status. The MAXWAIT field in the EPIHBnCFG register defines the
maximum number of EPI clocks to wait while the FEMPTY or FFULL signal is holding off a transaction.
Figure 10-11 on page 474 shows how the FEMPTY signal should respond to a write and read from
the XFIFO. Figure 10-12 on page 474 shows how the FEMPTY and FFULL signals should respond
to 2 writes and 1 read from an external FIFO that contains two entries.

General-Purpose Mode
The General-Purpose Mode Configuration (EPIGPCFG) register is used to configure the control,
data, and address pins, if used. Any unused EPI controller signals can be used as GPIOs or another
alternate function. The general-purpose configuration can be used for custom interfaces with FPGAs,
CPLDs, and digital data acquisition and actuator control.
Important: The RD2CYC bit in the EPIGPCFG register must be set at all times in General-Purpose
mode to ensure proper operation.
General-Purpose mode is designed for three general types of use:
■ Extremely high-speed clocked interfaces to FPGAs and CPLDs. Three sizes of data and optional
address are supported. Framing and clock-enable functions permit more optimized interfaces.
■ General parallel GPIO. From 1 to 32 pins may be written or read, with the speed precisely
controlled by the EPIBAUD register baud rate (when used with the WFIFO and/or the NBRFIFO)
or by the rate of accesses from software or μDMA. Examples of this type of use include:
– Reading 20 sensors at fixed time periods by configuring 20 pins to be inputs, configuring the
COUNT0 field in the EPIBAUD register to some divider, and then using non-blocking reads.
474

– Implementing a very wide ganged PWM/PCM with fixed frequency for driving actuators, LEDs,
etc.
– Implementing SDIO 4-bit mode where commands are driven or captured on 6 pins with fixed
timing, fed by the µDMA.
■ General custom interfaces of any speed.
The configuration allows for choice of an output clock (free-running or gated), a framing signal (with
frame size), a ready input (to stretch transactions), a read and write strobe, an address (of varying
sizes), and data (of varying sizes). Additionally, provisions are made for separating data and address
phases.
The interface has the following optional features:
■ Use of the EPI clock output is controlled by the CLKPIN bit in the EPIGPCFG register. Unclocked
uses include general-purpose I/O and asynchronous interfaces (optionally using RD and WR
strobes). Clocked interfaces allow for higher speeds and are much easier to connect to FPGAs
and CPLDs (which usually include input clocks).
■ EPI clock, if used, may be free running or gated depending on the CLKGATE bit in the EPIGPCFG
register. A free-running EPI clock requires another method for determining when data is live,
such as the frame pin or RD/WR strobes. A gated clock approach uses a setup-time model in
which the EPI clock controls when transactions are starting and stopping. The gated clock is
held high until a new transaction is started and goes high at the end of the cycle where
RD/WR/FRAME and address (and data if write) are emitted.
■ Use of the ready input (iRDY) from the external device is controlled by the RDYEN bit in the
EPIGPCFG register. The iRDY signal uses EPI0S27 and may only be used with a free-running
clock. iRDY gates transactions, no matter what state they are in. When iRDY is deasserted, the
transaction is held off from completing.
■ Use of the frame output (FRAME) is controlled by the FRMPIN bit in the EPIGPCFG register.
The frame pin may be used whether the clock is output or not, and whether the clock is free
running or not. It may also be used along with the iRDY signal. The frame may be a pulse (one
clock) or may be 50/50 split across the frame size (controlled by the FRM50 bit in the EPIGPCFG
register). The frame count (the size of the frame as specified by the FRMCNT field in the
EPIGPCFG register) may be between 1 and 15 clocks for pulsed and between 2 and 30 clocks
for 50/50. The frame pin counts transactions and not clocks; a transaction is any clock where
the RD or WR strobe is high (if used). So, if the FRMCNT bit is set, then the frame pin pulses
every other transaction; if 2-cycle reads and writes are used, it pulses every other address phase.
FRM50 must be used with this in mind as it may hold state for many clocks waiting for the next
transaction.
■ Use of the RD and WR outputs is controlled by the RW bit in the EPIGPCFG register. For interfaces
where the direction is known (in advance, related to frame size, or other means), these strobes
are not needed. For most other interfaces, RD and WR are used so the external peripheral knows
what transaction is taking place, and if any transaction is taking place.
■ Separation of address/request and data phases may be used on writes using the WR2CYC bit in
the EPIGPCFG register. This configuration allows the external peripheral extra time to act.
Address and data phases must be separated on reads, and the RD2CYC bit in the EPIGPCFG
register must be set. When configured to use an address as specified by the ASIZE field in the
EPIGPCFG register, the address is emitted on the with the RD strobe (first cycle) and data is
January 21, 2012
475
Texas Instruments-Production Data
External Peripheral Interface (EPI)
expected to be returned on the next cycle (when RD is not asserted). If no address is used, then
RD is asserted on the first cycle and data is captured on the second cycle (when RD is not
asserted), allowing more setup time for data.
For writes, the output may be in one or two cycles. In the two-cycle case, the address (if any) is
emitted on the first cycle with the WR strobe and the data is emitted on the second cycle (with
WR not asserted). Although split address and write data phases are not normally needed for
logic reasons, it may be useful to make read and write timings match. If 2-cycle reads or writes
are used, the RW bit is automatically set.
■ Address may be emitted (controlled by the ASIZE field in the EPIGPCFG register). The address
may be up to 4 bits (16 possible values), up to 12 bits (4096 possible values), or up to 20 bits
(1 M possible values). Size of address limits size of data, for example, 4 bits of address support
up to 24 bits data. 4-bit address uses EPI0S[27:24]; 12-bit address uses EPI0S[27:16];
20-bit address uses EPI0S[27:8]. The address signals may be used by the external peripheral
as an address, code (command), or for other unrelated uses (such as a chip enable). If the
chosen address/data combination does not use all of the EPI signals, the unused pins can be
used as GPIOs or for other functions. For example, when using a 4-bit address with an 8-bit
data, the pins assigned to EPIS0[23:8] can be assigned to other functions.
■ Data may be 8 bits, 16 bits, 24 bits, or 32 bits (controlled by the DSIZE field in the EPIGPCFG
register). 32-bit data cannot be used with address or EPI clock or any other signal. 24-bit data
can only be used with 4-bit address or no address. 32-bit data requires that either the WR2CYC
bit or the RD2CYC bit in the EPIGPCFG register is set.
■ Memory can be used more efficiently by using the Word Access Mode. By default, the EPI
controller uses data bits [7:0] when the DSIZE field in the EPIGPCFG register is 0x0; data bits
[15:0] when the DSIZE field is 0x1; data bits [23:0] when the DSIZE field is 0x2; and data bits
[31:0] when the DSIZE field is 0x3. When the WORD bit in the EPIGPCFG2 register is set, the
EPI controller automatically routes bytes of data onto the correct byte lanes such that data can
be stored in bits [31:8] for DSIZE=0x0 and bits [31:16] for DSIZE=0x1.
■ When using the EPI controller as a GPIO interface, writes are FIFOed (up to 4 can be held at
any time), and up to 32 pins are changed using the EPIBAUD clock rate specified by COUNT0.
As a result, output pin control can be very precisely controlled as a function of time. By contrast,
when writing to normal GPIOs, writes can only occur 8-bits at a time and take up to two clock
cycles to complete. In addition, the write itself may be further delayed by the bus due to μDMA
or draining of a previous write. With both GPIO and the EPI controller, reads may be performed
directly, in which case the current pin states are read back. With the EPI controller, the
non-blocking interface may also be used to perform reads based on a fixed time rule via the
EPIBAUD clock rate.
Table 10-7 on page 476 shows how the EPI0S[31:0] signals function while in General-Purpose
mode. Notice that the address connections vary depending on the data-width restrictions of the
external peripheral.

FRAME Signal Operation
The operation of the FRAME signal is controlled by the FRMCNT and FRM50 bits. When FRM50 is
clear, the FRAME signal is high whenever the WR or RD strobe is high. When FRMCNT is clear, the
FRAME signal is simply the logical OR of the WR and RD strobes so the FRAME signal is high during
every read or write access, see Figure 10-16 on page 479.

iRDY Signal Operation
The ready input (iRDY) signal can be used to lengthen bus cycles and is enabled by the RDYEN bit
in the EPIGPCFG register. iRDY is input on EPI0S27 and may only be used with a free-running
clock (CLKGATE is clear). If iRDY is deasserted, further transactions are held off until the iRDY signal
is asserted again. iRDY is sampled on the falling edge of the EPI clock and gates transactions, no
matter what state they are in.
A two-cycle access has two phases in the bus cycle. The first clock is the address phase, and the
second clock is the data phase. If iRDY is sampled Low at the start of the address phase, as shown
in Figure 21-21 on page 901, then the address phase is extended (FRAME, RD, and Address are
all asserted) until after iRDY has been sampled High again. Data is sampled on the subsequent
rising edge.
If iRDY is sampled Low at the start of the data phase, as shown in Figure 10-22 on page 481, the
FRAME, RD, Address, and Data signals behave as they would during a normal transaction in T1.
The data phase (T2) is extended with only Address being asserted until iRDY is recognized as
asserted again. Data is latched on the subsequent rising edge.

EPI Clock Operation
If the CLKGATE bit in the EPIGPCFG register is clear, the EPI clock always toggles when
General-purpose mode is enabled. If CLKGATE is set, the clock is output only when a transaction
is occurring, otherwise the clock is held high. If the WR2CYC bit is clear, the EPI clock begins toggling
1 cycle before the WR strobe goes high. If the WR2CYC bit is set, the EPI clock begins toggling when
the WR strobe goes high. The clock stops toggling after the first rising edge after the WR strobe is
deasserted. The RD strobe operates in the same manner as the WR strobe when the WR2CYC bit
is set, as the RD2CYC bit must always be set. See Figure 10-23 on page 482 and Figure
10-24 on page 482.

Register Map
Table 10-8 on page 482 lists the EPI registers. The offset listed is a hexadecimal increment to the
register’s address, relative to the base address of 0x400D.0000. Note that the EPI controller clock
must be enabled before the registers can be programmed (see page 252). There must be a delay
of 3 system clocks after the EPI module clock is enabled before any EPI module registers are
accessed.
Note:
A back-to-back write followed by a read of the same register reads the value that written
by the first write access, not the value from the second write access. (This situation only
occurs when the processor core attempts this action, the μDMA does not do this.). To read
back what was just written, another instruction must be generated between the write and
read. Read-write does not have this issue, so use of read-write for clear of error interrupt
cause is not affected.

Texas Instruments-Production Data
External Peripheral Interface (EPI)
Register 1: EPI Configuration (EPICFG), offset 0x000
Important: The MODE field determines which configuration register is accessed for offsets 0x010
and 0x014. Any write to the EPICFG register resets the register contents at offsets
0x010 and 0x014.
The configuration register is used to enable the block, select a mode, and select the basic pin use
(based on the mode). Note that attempting to program an undefined MODE field clears the BLKEN
bit and disables the EPI controller.
