Transmit frame-synchronization pulses can be generated internally by the sample rate generator (see Section 20.4.2) or driven by an external source. The source of frame synchronization is selected by programming the mode bit, FSXM, in PCR. FSX is also affected by the FSGM bit in SRGR2. For information about the effects of FSXM and FSGM, see Section 20.9.16). Similarly, transmit clocks can be selected to be inputs or outputs by programming the mode bit, CLKXM, in the PCR (see Section 20.9.19).
When FSR and FSX are inputs (FSXM = FSRM= 0, external frame-synchronization pulses), the McBSP detects them on the internal falling edge of clock, internal MCLKR, and internal CLKX, respectively. The receive data arriving at the DR pin is also sampled on the falling edge of internal MCLKR. These internal clock signals are either derived from external source via CLK(R/X) pins or driven by the sample rate generator clock (CLKG) internal to the McBSP.
When FSR and FSX are outputs, implying that the outputs are driven by the sample rate generator, the outputs are generated (transition to their active state) on the rising edge of internal clock, CLK(R/X). Similarly, data on the DX pin is output on the rising edge of internal CLKX.
FSRP, FSXP, CLKRP, and CLKXP in the pin control register (PCR) configure the polarities of the FSR, FSX, MCLKR, and CLKX signals, respectively. All frame-synchronization signals (internal FSR, internal FSX) that are internal to the serial port are active high. If the serial port is configured for external frame synchronization (FSR/FSX are inputs to McBSP) and FSRP = FSXP = 1, the external active-low frame-synchronization signals are inverted before being sent to the receiver (internal FSR) and transmitter (internal FSX). Similarly, if internal synchronization (FSR/FSX are output pins and GSYNC = 0) is selected and the polarity bit FS(R/X)P = 1, the internal active-high frame-synchronization signals are inverted before being sent to the FS(R/X) pin.
On the transmit side, the transmit clock polarity bit, CLKXP, sets the edge used to shift and clock out transmit data. Data is always transmitted on the rising edge of internal CLKX. If CLKXP = 1 and external clocking is selected (CLKXM = 0 and CLKX is an input), the external falling-edge triggered input clock on CLKX is inverted to a rising-edge triggered clock before being sent to the transmitter. If CLKXP = 1, and internal clocking selected (CLKXM = 1 and CLKX is an output pin), the internal (rising-edge triggered) clock, internal CLKX, is inverted before being sent out on the MCLKX pin.
Similarly, the receiver can reliably sample data that is clocked with a rising edge clock (by the transmitter). The receive clock polarity bit, CLKRP, sets the edge used to sample received data. The receive data is always sampled on the falling edge of internal MCLKR. Therefore, if CLKRP = 1 and external clocking is selected (CLKRM = 0 and MCLKR is an input pin), the external rising-edge triggered input clock on MCLKR is inverted to a falling-edge triggered clock before being sent to the receiver. If CLKRP = 1 and internal clocking is selected (CLKRM = 1), the internal falling-edge triggered clock is inverted to a rising-edge triggered clock before being sent out on the MCLKR pin.
CLKRP = CLKXP in a system where the same clock (internal or external) is used to clock the receiver and transmitter. The receiver uses the opposite edge as the transmitter to make sure of valid setup and hold of data around this edge. Figure 20-58 shows how data clocked by an external serial device using a rising edge can be sampled by the McBSP receiver on the falling edge of the same clock.
