1.1 Introduction
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x are an ARM Cortex-M0 based, low-cost 32-bit MCU family,
designed for 8/16-bit microcontroller applications, offering performance, low power, simple
instruction set and memory3 addressing together with reduced code size compared to
existing 8/16-bit architectures.
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x operate at CPU frequencies of up to 50 MHz. Equipped with a
highly flexible and configurable full-speed USB 2.0 device controller, the LPC11U3x/2x/1x
bring unparalleled design flexibility and seamless integration to today's demanding
connectivity solutions.
The peripheral complement of the LPC11U3x/2x/1x includes up to 32 kB of flash memory,
up to 8 kB of SRAM data memory, one Fast-mode Plus I2C-bus interface, one
RS-485/EIA-485 USART with support for synchronous mode and smart card interface,

general purpose I/O pins.
The I/O Handler is a software library-supported hardware engine that can be used to add
performance, connectivity and flexibility to system designs. It is available on the
LPC11U37HFBD64/401. The I/O Handler can emulate serial interfaces such as UART,
I2C, and I2S with no or very low additional CPU load and can off-load the CPU by
performing processing-intensive functions like DMA transfers in hardware. Software
libraries for multiple I/O handler applications are available on http://www.LPCware.com.

Chapter 2: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Memory mapping

2.2 Memory map
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x incorporates several distinct memory regions, shown in the
following figures. Figure 4 shows the overall map of the entire address space from the
user program viewpoint following reset.
The AHB peripheral area is 2 MB in size and is divided to allow for up to 128 peripherals.
The APB peripheral area is 512 kB in size and is divided to allow for up to 32 peripherals.
Each peripheral of either type is allocated 16 kB of space. This allows simplifying the
address decoding for each peripheral.

3.1 How to read this chapter
The system control block is identical for all LPC11U3x/2x/1x parts.
The following register bit is available on LPC11U3x/501 and LPC11U37H only and is
reserved otherwise: SYSAHBCLKCTRL register bit RAM1 (bit 26) (Table 24).
Remark: For part LPC11U37H, enable the SRAM1 clock in the SYSAHBCLKCTRL
(Table 24) register for running the I/O Handler software library code.
The DEVICE_ID register contains the device id numbers for the LPC11U1x and
LPC11U2x parts. For LPC11U3x parts, see the ISP/IAP Read Part Id command
(Table 376).

3.2 Introduction
The system configuration block controls oscillators, some aspects of the power
management, and the clock generation of the LPC11U3x/2x/1x. Also included in this block
is a register for remapping flash, SRAM, and ROM memory areas.

3.3 Pin description
Table 4 shows pins that are associated with system control block functions.

Eight pins can be selected as external interrupt
pins from all available GPIO pins (see Table 40).

3.4 Clocking and power control
See Figure 7 for an overview of the LPC11U3x/2x/1x Clock Generation Unit (CGU).
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x include three independent oscillators. These are the system
oscillator, the Internal RC oscillator (IRC), and the Watchdog oscillator. Each oscillator can
be used for more than one purpose as required in a particular application.
Following reset, the LPC11U3x/2x/1x will operate from the Internal RC oscillator until
switched by software. This allows systems to operate without an external crystal and the
bootloader code to operate at a known frequency.
The SYSAHBCLKCTRL register gates the system clock to the various peripherals and
memories. USART and SSP have individual clock dividers to derive peripheral clocks
from the main clock.

3.5.3 System PLL control register
This register connects and enables the system PLL and configures the PLL multiplier and
divider values. The PLL accepts an input frequency from 10 MHz to 25 MHz from various
clock sources. The input frequency is multiplied to a higher frequency and then divided
down to provide the actual clock used by the CPU, peripherals, and memories. The PLL
can produce a clock up to the maximum allowed for the CPU.

3.5.8 Watchdog oscillator control register
This register configures the watchdog oscillator. The oscillator consists of an analog and a
digital part. The analog part contains the oscillator function and generates an analog clock
(Fclkana). With the digital part, the analog output clock (Fclkana) can be divided to the
required output clock frequency wdt_osc_clk. The analog output frequency (Fclkana) can
be adjusted with the FREQSEL bits between 600 kHz and 4.6 MHz. With the digital part
Fclkana will be divided (divider ratios = 2, 4,...,64) to wdt_osc_clk using the DIVSEL bits.
The output clock frequency of the watchdog oscillator can be calculated as
wdt_osc_clk = Fclkana/(2  (1 + DIVSEL)) = 9.4 kHz to 2.3 MHz (nominal values).
Remark: Any setting of the FREQSEL bits will yield a Fclkana value within 40% of the
listed frequency value. The watchdog oscillator is the clock source with the lowest power
consumption. If accurate timing is required, use the IRC or system oscillator.
Remark: The frequency of the watchdog oscillator is undefined after reset. The watchdog
oscillator frequency must be programmed by writing to the WDTOSCCTRL register before
using the watchdog oscillator.

Chapter 3: LPC11U3x/2x/1x System control block

Setting this parameter to a very low value (e.g. zero) will guarantee the best possible
interrupt performance but will also introduce a significant degree of uncertainty and jitter.
Requiring the system to always take a larger number of cycles (whether it needs it or not)
will reduce the amount of uncertainty but may not necessarily eliminate it.
Theoretically, the ARM Cortex-M0 core should always be able to service an interrupt
request within 15 cycles. System factors external to the cpu, however, bus latencies,
peripheral response times, etc. can increase the time required to complete a previous
instruction before an interrupt can be serviced. Therefore, accurately specifying a
minimum number of cycles that will ensure determinism will depend on the application.
The default setting for this register is 0x010.

numbers see Table 59. For a description of the NMI functionality, see Section 24.3.3.2.
Remark: When you want to change the interrupt source for the NMI, you must first disable
the NMI source by setting bit 31 in this register to 0. Then change the source by updating
the IRQN bits and re-enable the NMI source by setting bit 31 to 1.

Note: If the NMISRC register is used to select an interrupt as the source of Non-Maskable
interrupts, and the selected interrupt is enabled, one interrupt request can result in both a
Non-Maskable and a normal interrupt. This can be avoided by disabling the normal
interrupt in the NVIC, as described in Section 24.5.2.

3.5.34 Pin interrupt select registers
Each of these 8 registers selects one GPIO pin from all GPIO pins on both ports as the
source of a pin interrupt. To select a pin for any of the eight pin interrupts, write the pin
number as 0 to 23 for pins PIO0_0 to PIO0_23 and 24 to 55 for pins PIO1_0 to PIO1_31
to the INTPIN bits. For example, setting INTPIN to 0x5 in PINTSEL0 selects pin PIO0_5
for pin interrupt 0. Setting INTPIN in PINTSEL7 to 0x32 (pin 50) selects pin PIO1_26 for
pin interrupt 7.

3.5.39 Deep-sleep mode configuration register
The bits in this register (BOD_PD and WDTOSC_OD) can be programmed to control
aspects of Deep-sleep and Power-down modes. The bits are loaded into corresponding
bits of the PDRUNCFG register when Deep-sleep mode or Power-down mode is entered.
Remark: Hardware forces the analog blocks to be powered down in Deep-sleep and
Power-down modes according to the power configuration described in Section 3.9.4.1 and
Section 3.9.5.1.An exception are the exception of BOD and watchdog oscillator, which
can be configured to remain running through this register. The WDTOSC_PD value
written to the PDSLEEPCFG register is overwritten if the LOCK bit in the WWDT MOD
register (see Table 337) is set. See Section 17.7 for details.

3.5.41 Power configuration register
The PDRUNCFG register controls the power to the various analog blocks. This register
can be written to at any time while the chip is running, and a write will take effect
immediately with the exception of the power-down signal to the IRC.
To avoid glitches when powering down the IRC, the IRC clock is automatically switched off
at a clean point. Therefore, for the IRC a delay is possible before the power-down state
takes effect.

3.6 Reset
Reset has the following sources on the LPC11U3x/2x/1x: the RESET pin, Watchdog
Reset, Power-On Reset (POR), and Brown Out Detect (BOD). In addition, there is an
ARM software reset.
The RESET pin is a Schmitt trigger input pin. Assertion of chip Reset by any source, once
the operating voltage attains a usable level, starts the IRC causing reset to remain
asserted until the external Reset is de-asserted, the oscillator is running, and the flash
controller has completed its initialization.
On the assertion of any reset source (Arm software reset, POR, BOD reset, External
reset, and Watchdog reset), the following processes are initiated:
1. The IRC starts up. After the IRC-start-up time (maximum of 6 s on power-up), the
IRC provides a stable clock output.
2. The flash is powered up. This takes approximately 100 s. Then the flash initialization
sequence is started, which takes about 250 cycles.
3. The boot code in the ROM starts. The boot code performs the boot tasks and may
jump to the flash.
When the internal Reset is removed, the processor begins executing at address 0, which
is initially the Reset vector mapped from the boot block. At that point, all of the processor
and peripheral registers have been initialized to predetermined values.

3.8 Brown-out detection
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x includes up to four levels for monitoring the voltage on the VDD pin.
If this voltage falls below one of the selected levels, the BOD asserts an interrupt signal to
the NVIC or issues a reset, depending on the value of the BODRSTENA bit in the BOD
control register (Table 36).
The interrupt signal can be enabled for interrupt in the Interrupt Enable Register in the
NVIC (see Table 436) in order to cause a CPU interrupt; if not, software can monitor the
signal by reading a dedicated status register.
If the BOD interrupt is enabled in the STARTERP1 register (see Table 44) and in the
NVIC, the BOD interrupt can wake up the chip from Deep-sleep and power-down mode.
If the BOD reset is enabled, the forced BOD reset can wake up the chip from Deep-sleep
or Power-down mode.

3.9 Power management
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x support a variety of power control features. In Active mode, when
the chip is running, power and clocks to selected peripherals can be optimized for power
consumption. In addition, there are four special modes of processor power reduction with
different peripherals running: Sleep mode, Deep-sleep mode, Power-down mode, and
Deep power-down mode.

If bit 5, the clock source lock bit, in the WWDT MOD register is set and the IRC is selected as the WWDT
clock source, the IRC and the IRC output are forced on during this mode (Table 342). This increases power
consumption and may cause the part not to enter Power-down mode correctly. For details see Section 17.7.

Remark: The Debug mode is not supported in Sleep, Deep-sleep, Power-down, or Deep
power-down modes.

3.9.1 Reduced power modes and WWDT lock features
The WWDT clock select lock feature influences the power consumption in any of the
power modes because locking the WWDT clock source forces the selected WWDT clock
source to be on independently of the Deep-sleep and Power-down mode software
configuration through the PDSLEEPCFG register. For details see Section 17.7.
If the part uses Deep-sleep mode with the WWDT running, the watchdog oscillator is the
preferred clock source as it minimizes power consumption. If the clock source is not
locked, the watchdog oscillator must be powered by using the PDSLEEPCFG register.
Alternatively, the IRC may be selected and locked in WWDT MOD register, which forces
the IRC on during Deep-sleep mode.
If the part uses Power-down mode with the WWDT running, the watchdog oscillator must
be selected as the clock source. If the clock source is not locked, the watchdog oscillator
must be powered by using the PDSLEEPCFG register. Do not lock the clock source with
the IRC selected.

Chapter 3: LPC11U3x/2x/1x System control block

3.9.2 Active mode
In Active mode, the ARM Cortex-M0 core and memories are clocked by the system clock,
and peripherals are clocked by the system clock or a dedicated peripheral clock.
The chip is in Active mode after reset and the default power configuration is determined
by the reset values of the PDRUNCFG and SYSAHBCLKCTRL registers. The power
configuration can be changed during run time.

3.9.2.1 Power configuration in Active mode
Power consumption in Active mode is determined by the following configuration choices:

• The SYSAHBCLKCTRL register controls which memories and peripherals are
running (Table 24).

• The power to various analog blocks (PLL, oscillators, the ADC, the BOD circuit, and
the flash block) can be controlled at any time individually through the PDRUNCFG
register (Table 47).

• The clock source for the system clock can be selected from the IRC (default), the
system oscillator, or the watchdog oscillator (see Figure 7 and related registers).

• The system clock frequency can be selected by the SYSPLLCTRL (Table 9) and the
SYSAHBCLKDIV register (Table 23).

• Selected peripherals (USART, SSP0/1, USB, CLKOUT) use individual peripheral
clocks with their own clock dividers. The peripheral clocks can be shut down through
the corresponding clock divider registers (Table 25 to Table 33).

3.9.3 Sleep mode
In Sleep mode, the system clock to the ARM Cortex-M0 core is stopped, and execution of
instructions is suspended until either a reset or an interrupt occurs.
Peripheral functions, if selected to be clocked in the SYSAHBCLKCTRL register, continue
operation during Sleep mode and may generate interrupts to cause the processor to
resume execution. Sleep mode eliminates dynamic power used by the processor itself,
memory systems and related controllers, and internal buses. The processor state and
registers, peripheral registers, and internal SRAM values are maintained, and the logic
levels of the pins remain static.

3.9.3.1 Power configuration in Sleep mode
Power consumption in Sleep mode is configured by the same settings as in Active mode:

• The clock remains running.
• The system clock frequency remains the same as in Active mode, but the processor is
not clocked.

• Analog and digital peripherals are selected as in Active mode.
3.9.3.2 Programming Sleep mode
The following steps must be performed to enter Sleep mode:
1. The PD bits in the PCON register must be set to the default value 0x0.
2. The SLEEPDEEP bit in the ARM Cortex-M0 SCR register must be set to zero.

Chapter 3: LPC11U3x/2x/1x System control block

3. Use the ARM Cortex-M0 Wait-For-Interrupt (WFI) instruction.

3.9.3.3 Wake-up from Sleep mode
Sleep mode is exited automatically when an interrupt enabled by the NVIC arrives at the
processor or a reset occurs. After wake-up due to an interrupt, the microcontroller returns
to its original power configuration defined by the contents of the PDRUNCFG and the
SYSAHBCLKDIV registers. If a reset occurs, the microcontroller enters the default
configuration in Active mode.

3.9.4 Deep-sleep mode
In Deep-sleep mode, the system clock to the processor is disabled as in Sleep mode. All
analog blocks are powered down, except for the BOD circuit and the watchdog oscillator,
which must be selected or deselected during Deep-sleep mode in the PDSLEEPCFG
register. The main clock, and therefore all peripheral clocks, are disabled except for the
clock to the watchdog timer if the watchdog oscillator is selected. The IRC is running, but
its output is disabled. The flash is in stand-by mode.
Remark: If the LOCK bit is set in the WWDT MOD register (Table 337) and the IRC is
selected as a clock source for the WWDT, the IRC continues to clock the WWDT in
Deep-sleep mode.
Deep-sleep mode eliminates all power used by analog peripherals and all dynamic power
used by the processor itself, memory systems and related controllers, and internal buses.
The processor state and registers, peripheral registers, and internal SRAM values are
maintained, and the logic levels of the pins remain static.

3.9.4.1 Power configuration in Deep-sleep mode
Power consumption in Deep-sleep mode is determined by the Deep-sleep power
configuration setting in the PDSLEEPCFG (Table 45) register:

• The watchdog oscillator can be left running in Deep-sleep mode if required for the
WWDT.

• If the IRC is locked as the WWDT clock source (see Section 17.7), the IRC continues
to run and clock the WWDT in Deep-sleep mode independently of the setting in the
PDSLEEPCFG register.

• The BOD circuit can be left running in Deep-sleep mode if required by the application.
3.9.4.2 Programming Deep-sleep mode
The following steps must be performed to enter Deep-sleep mode:
1. The PD bits in the PCON register must be set to 0x1 (Table 54).
2. Select the power configuration in Deep-sleep mode in the PDSLEEPCFG (Table 45)
register.
3. Determine if the WWDT clock source must be locked to override the power
configuration in case the IRC is selected as clock for the WWDT (see Section 17.7).
4. If the main clock is not the IRC, power up the IRC in the PDRUNCFG register and
switch the clock source to IRC in the MAINCLKSEL register (Table 21). This ensures
that the system clock is shut down glitch-free.

5. Select the power configuration after wake-up in the PDAWAKECFG (Table 46)

6. If any of the available wake-up interrupts are needed for wake-up, enable the
interrupts in the interrupt wake-up registers (Table 43, Table 44) and in the NVIC.
7. Write one to the SLEEPDEEP bit in the ARM Cortex-M0 SCR register.
8. Use the ARM WFI instruction.

3.9.4.3 Wake-up from Deep-sleep mode
The microcontroller can wake up from Deep-sleep mode in the following ways:

• Signal on one of the eight pin interrupts selected in Table 40. Each pin interrupt must
also be enabled in the STARTERP0 register (Table 43) and in the NVIC.

• BOD signal, if the BOD is enabled in the PDSLEEPCFG register:
– BOD interrupt using the deep-sleep interrupt wake-up register 1 (Table 44). The
BOD interrupt must be enabled in the NVIC. The BOD interrupt must be selected in
the BODCTRL register.
– Reset from the BOD circuit. In this case, the BOD circuit must be enabled in the
PDSLEEPCFG register, and the BOD reset must be enabled in the BODCTRL
register (Table 36).

• WWDT signal, if the watchdog oscillator is enabled in the PDSLEEPCFG register:
– WWDT interrupt using the interrupt wake-up register 1 (Table 44). The WWDT
interrupt must be enabled in the NVIC. The WWDT interrupt must be set in the
WWDT MOD register.
– Reset from the watchdog timer. The WWDT reset must be set in the WWDT MOD
register. In this case, the watchdog oscillator must be running in Deep-sleep mode
(see PDSLEEPCFG register), and the WDT must be enabled in the
SYSAHBCLKCTRL register.

• USB wake-up signal using the interrupt wake-up register 1 (Table 44). For details, see
Section 11.7.6.

• GPIO group interrupt signal (see Table 44).
Remark: If the watchdog oscillator is running in Deep-sleep mode, its frequency
determines the wake-up time.
Remark: If the application in active mode uses a main clock different from the IRC,
reprogram the clock source for the main clock in the MAINCLKSEL register after waking
up.

3.9.5 Power-down mode
In Power-down mode, the system clock to the processor is disabled as in Sleep mode. All
analog blocks are powered down, except for the BOD circuit and the watchdog oscillator,
which must be selected or deselected during Power-down mode in the PDSLEEPCFG
register. The main clock and therefore all peripheral clocks are disabled except for the
clock to the watchdog timer if the watchdog oscillator is selected. The IRC itself and the
flash are powered down, decreasing power consumption compared to Deep-sleep mode.

Remark: Do not set the LOCK bit in the WWDT MOD register (Table 337) when the IRC is
selected as a clock source for the WWDT. This prevents the part from entering the
Power-down mode correctly.
Power-down mode eliminates all power used by analog peripherals and all dynamic
power used by the processor itself, memory systems and related controllers, and internal
buses. The processor state and registers, peripheral registers, and internal SRAM values
are maintained, and the logic levels of the pins remain static. Wake-up times are longer
compared to the Deep-sleep mode.

3.9.5.1 Power configuration in Power-down mode
Power consumption in Power-down mode can be configured by the power configuration
setting in the PDSLEEPCFG (Table 45) register in the same way as for Deep-sleep mode
(see Section 3.9.4.1):

• The watchdog oscillator can be left running in Deep-sleep mode if required for the
WWDT.

• The BOD circuit can be left running in Deep-sleep mode if required by the application.
3.9.5.2 Programming Power-down mode
The following steps must be performed to enter Power-down mode:
1. The PD bits in the PCON register must be set to 0x2 (Table 54).
2. Select the power configuration in Power-down mode in the PDSLEEPCFG (Table 45)
register.
3. If the lock bit 5 in the WWDT MOD register is set (Table 337) and the IRC is selected
as the WWDT clock source, reset the part to clear the lock bit and then select the
watchdog oscillator as the WWDT clock source.
4. If the main clock is not the IRC, power up the IRC in the PDRUNCFG register and
switch the clock source to IRC in the MAINCLKSEL register (Table 21). This ensures
that the system clock is shut down glitch-free.
5. Select the power configuration after wake-up in the PDAWAKECFG (Table 46)
register.
6. If any of the available wake-up interrupts are used for wake-up, enable the interrupts
in the interrupt wake-up registers (Table 43, Table 44) and in the NVIC.
7. Write one to the SLEEPDEEP bit in the ARM Cortex-M0 SCR register.
8. Use the ARM WFI instruction.

3.9.5.3 Wake-up from Power-down mode
The microcontroller can wake up from Power-down mode in the same way as from
Deep-sleep mode:

• Signal on one of the eight pin interrupts selected in Table 40. Each pin interrupt must
also be enabled in the STARTERP0 register (Table 43) and in the NVIC.

• BOD signal, if the BOD is enabled in the PDSLEEPCFG register:
– BOD interrupt using the interrupt wake-up register 1 (Table 44). The BOD interrupt
must be enabled in the NVIC. The BOD interrupt must be selected in the
BODCTRL register.

Remark: If the application in active mode uses a main clock different from the IRC,
reprogram the clock source for the main clock in the MAINCLKSEL register after waking
up.

3.9.6 Deep power-down mode
In Deep power-down mode, power and clocks are shut off to the entire chip with the
exception of the WAKEUP pin. The Deep power-down mode is controlled by the PMU
(see Chapter 4).
During Deep power-down mode, the contents of the SRAM and registers are not retained
except for a small amount of data which can be stored in the general purpose registers of
the PMU block.
All functional pins are tri-stated in Deep power-down mode except for the WAKEUP pin.
Remark: Setting bit 3 in the PCON register (Section 4.3.1) prevents the part from entering
Deep-power down mode.

3.9.6.1 Power configuration in Deep power-down mode
Deep power-down mode has no configuration options. All clocks, the core, and all
peripherals are powered down. Only the WAKEUP pin is powered.

3.9.6.2 Programming Deep power-down mode
The following steps must be performed to enter Deep power-down mode:
1. Pull the WAKEUP pin externally HIGH.
2. Ensure that bit 3 in the PCON register (Table 54) is cleared.
3. Write 0x3 to the PD bits in the PCON register (see Table 54).
4. Store data to be retained in the general purpose registers (Section 4.3.2).
5. Write one to the SLEEPDEEP bit in the ARM Cortex-M0 SCR register.
6. Use the ARM WFI instruction.

3.9.6.3 Wake-up from Deep power-down mode
Pulling the WAKEUP pin LOW wakes up the LPC11U3x/2x/1x from Deep power-down,
and the chip goes through the entire reset process (Section 3.6).
1. On the WAKEUP pin, transition from HIGH to LOW.
– The PMU will turn on the on-chip voltage regulator. When the core voltage reaches
the power-on-reset (POR) trip point, a system reset will be triggered and the chip
re-boots.
– All registers except the GPREG0 to GPREG4 will be in their reset state.
2. Once the chip has booted, read the deep power-down flag in the PCON register
(Table 54) to verify that the reset was caused by a wake-up event from Deep
power-down and was not a cold reset.
3. Clear the deep power-down flag in the PCON register (Table 54).
4. (Optional) Read the stored data in the general purpose registers (Section 4.3.2).
5. Set up the PMU for the next Deep power-down cycle.
Remark: The RESET pin has no functionality in Deep power-down mode.

System PLL block diagram

The block diagram of this PLL is shown in Figure 9. The input frequency range is 10 MHz
to 25 MHz. The input clock is fed directly to the Phase-Frequency Detector (PFD). This
block compares the phase and frequency of its inputs, and generates a control signal
when phase and/ or frequency do not match. The loop filter filters these control signals
and drives the current controlled oscillator (CCO), which generates the main clock and

optionally two additional phases. The CCO frequency range is 156 MHz to
320 MHz.These clocks are either divided by 2P by the programmable post divider to
create the output clocks, or are sent directly to the outputs. The main output clock is then
divided by M by the programmable feedback divider to generate the feedback clock. The
output signal of the phase-frequency detector is also monitored by the lock detector, to
signal when the PLL has locked on to the input clock.

3.10.1 Lock detector
The lock detector measures the phase difference between the rising edges of the input
and feedback clocks. Only when this difference is smaller than the so called “lock
criterion” for more than eight consecutive input clock periods, the lock output switches
from low to high. A single too large phase difference immediately resets the counter and
causes the lock signal to drop (if it was high). Requiring eight phase measurements in a
row to be below a certain figure ensures that the lock detector will not indicate lock until
both the phase and frequency of the input and feedback clocks are very well aligned. This
effectively prevents false lock indications, and thus ensures a glitch free lock signal.

3.10.2 Power-down control
To reduce the power consumption when the PLL clock is not needed, a Power-down
mode has been incorporated. This mode is enabled by setting the SYSPLL_PD bit to one
in the Power-down configuration register (Table 47). In this mode, the internal current
reference will be turned off, the oscillator and the phase-frequency detector will be
stopped and the dividers will enter a reset state. While in Power-down mode, the lock
output will be low to indicate that the PLL is not in lock. When the Power-down mode is
terminated by setting the SYSPLL_PD bit to zero, the PLL will resume its normal
operation and will make the lock signal high once it has regained lock on the input clock.

3.10.3 Divider ratio programming
Post divider
The division ratio of the post divider is controlled by the PSEL bits. The division ratio is two
times the value of P selected by PSEL bits as shown in Table 9 and Table 11. This
guarantees an output clock with a 50% duty cycle.
Feedback divider
The feedback divider’s division ratio is controlled by the MSEL bits. The division ratio
between the PLL’s output clock and the input clock is the decimal value on MSEL bits plus
one, as specified in Table 9 and Table 11.
Changing the divider values
Changing the divider ratio while the PLL is running is not recommended. As there is no
way to synchronize the change of the MSEL and PSEL values with the dividers, the risk
exists that the counter will read in an undefined value, which could lead to unwanted
spikes or drops in the frequency of the output clock. The recommended way of changing
between divider settings is to power down the PLL, adjust the divider settings and then let
the PLL start up again.

In this mode the post divider is enabled, giving a 50 % duty cycle clock with the following
frequency relations:
Fclkout = M  Fclkin =  FCCO    2  P 

(1)

To select the appropriate values for M and P, it is recommended to follow these steps:
1. Specify the input clock frequency Fclkin.
2. Calculate M to obtain the desired output frequency Fclkout with M = Fclkout / Fclkin.
3. Find a value so that FCCO = 2  P  Fclkout.
4. Verify that all frequencies and divider values conform to the limits specified in Table 9
and Table 11.
Table 52 shows how to configure the PLL for a 12 MHz crystal oscillator using the
SYSPLLCTRL register (Table 9). The main clock is equivalent to the system clock if the
system clock divider SYSAHBCLKDIV is set to one (see Table 23).

User manual

5.1 How to read this chapter
The power profiles are available for all LPC11U3x/2x/1x.

5.2 Features
• Includes ROM-based application services
• Power Management services
• Clocking services

5.3 Basic configuration
Specific power profile settings are required in the following situations:

• When using the USB, configure the power profiles in Default mode.
• When using IAP commands, configure the power profiles in Default mode.
Disable all interrupts before making calls to the power profile API. You can re-enable the
interrupts after the power profile API calls have completed.

5.4 General description
The power consumption in Active and Sleep modes can be optimized for the application
through simple calls to the power profile. The power configuration routine configures the
LPC11U3x/2x/1x for one of the following power modes:

• Default mode corresponding to power configuration after reset.
• CPU performance mode corresponding to optimized processing capability.
• Efficiency mode corresponding to optimized balance of current consumption and CPU
performance.

• Low-current mode corresponding to lowest power consumption.
In addition, the power profile includes routines to select the optimal PLL settings for a
given system clock and PLL input clock.
The API calls to the ROM are performed by executing functions which are pointed by a
pointer within the ROM Driver Table. Figure 10 shows the pointer structure used to call the
Power Profiles API.

5.5 Definitions
The following elements have to be defined in an application that uses the power profiles:
typedef struct _PWRD {
void (*set_pll)(unsigned int cmd[], unsigned int resp[]);
void (*set_power)(unsigned int cmd[], unsigned int resp[]);
} PWRD;
#define rom_driver_ptr (*(ROM) **) 0x1FFF 1FF8)
pPWRD = (PWRD *)(rom_driver_ptr->pPWRD);

5.6 Clocking routine
5.6.1 set_pll
This routine sets up the system PLL according to the calling arguments. If the expected
clock can be obtained by simply dividing the system PLL input, set_pll bypasses the PLL
to lower system power consumption.
Remark: Before this routine is invoked, the PLL clock source (IRC/system oscillator) must
be selected (Table 17), the main clock source must be set to the input clock to the system
PLL (Table 19) and the system/AHB clock divider must be set to 1 (Table 21).
set_pll attempts to find a PLL setup that matches the calling parameters. Once a
combination of a feedback divider value (SYSPLLCTRL, M), a post divider ratio
(SYSPLLCTRL, P) and the system/AHB clock divider (SYSAHBCLKDIV) is found, set_pll
applies the selected values and switches the main clock source selection to the system
PLL clock out (if necessary).
The routine returns a result code that indicates if the system PLL was successfully set
(PLL_CMD_SUCCESS) or not (in which case the result code identifies what went wrong).
The current system frequency value is also returned. The application should use this
information to adjust other clocks in the device (the SSP, UART, and WDT clocks, and/or
clockout).

5.6.1.1 Param0: system PLL input frequency and Param1: expected system clock
set_pll looks for a setup in which the system PLL clock does not exceed 50 MHz. It easily
finds a solution when the ratio between the expected system clock and the system PLL
input frequency is an integer value, but it can also find solutions in other cases.
The system PLL input frequency (Param0) must be between 10000 to 25000 kHz (10
MHz to 25 MHz) inclusive. The expected system clock (Param1) must be between 1 and
50000 kHz inclusive. If either of these requirements is not met, set_pll returns
PLL_INVALID_FREQ and returns Param0 as Result1 since the PLL setting is unchanged.

5.6.1.2 Param2: mode
The first priority of set_pll is to find a setup that generates the system clock at exactly the
rate specified in Param1. If it is unlikely that an exact match can be found, input parameter
mode (Param2) should be used to specify if the actual system clock can be less than or
equal, greater than or equal or approximately the value specified as the expected system
clock (Param1).
A call specifying CPU_FREQ_EQU will only succeed if the PLL can output exactly the
frequency requested in Param1.
CPU_FREQ_LTE can be used if the requested frequency should not be exceeded (such
as overall current consumption and/or power budget reasons).
CPU_FREQ_GTE helps applications that need a minimum level of CPU processing
capabilities.
CPU_FREQ_APPROX results in a system clock that is as close as possible to the
requested value (it may be greater than or less than the requested value).
If an illegal mode is specified, set_pll returns PLL_INVALID_MODE. If the expected
system clock is out of the range supported by this routine, set_pll returns
PLL_FREQ_NOT_FOUND. In these cases the current PLL setting is not changed and
Param0 is returned as Result1.

5.6.1.3 Param3: system PLL lock time-out
It should take no more than 100 s for the system PLL to lock if a valid configuration is
selected. If Param3 is zero, set_pll will wait indefinitely for the PLL to lock. A non-zero
value indicates how many times the code will check for a successful PLL lock event
before it returns PLL_NOT_LOCKED. In this case the PLL settings are unchanged and
Param0 is returned as Result1.

Chapter 5: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Power profiles

Remark: The time it takes the PLL to lock depends on the selected PLL input clock
source (IRC/system oscillator) and its characteristics. The selected source can
experience more or less jitter depending on the operating conditions such as power
supply and/or ambient temperature. This is why it is suggested that when a good known
clock source is used and a PLL_NOT_LOCKED response is received, the set_pll routine
should be invoked several times before declaring the selected PLL clock source invalid.
Hint: setting Param3 equal to the system PLL frequency [Hz] divided by 10000 will
provide more than enough PLL lock-polling cycles.

5.6.1.4 Code examples
The following examples illustrate some of the features of set_pll discussed above.
5.6.1.4.1

Invalid frequency (device maximum clock rate exceeded)
command[0] = 12000;
command[1] = 60000;
command[2] = CPU_FREQ_EQU;
command[3] = 0;
(*rom)->pWRD->set_pll(command, result);
The above code specifies a 12 MHz PLL input clock and a system clock of exactly
60 MHz. The application was ready to infinitely wait for the PLL to lock. But the expected
system clock of 60 MHz exceeds the maximum of 50 MHz. Therefore set_pll returns
PLL_INVALID_FREQ in result[0] and 12000 in result[1] without changing the PLL
settings.

5.6.1.4.2

Invalid frequency selection (system clock divider restrictions)
command[0] = 12000;
command[1] = 40;
command[2] = CPU_FREQ_LTE;
command[3] = 0;
(*rom)->pWRD->set_pll(command, result);
The above code specifies a 12 MHz PLL input clock, a system clock of no more than
40 kHz and no time-out while waiting for the PLL to lock. Since the maximum divider value
for the system clock is 255 and running at 40 kHz would need a divide by value of 300,
set_pll returns PLL_INVALID_FREQ in result[0] and 12000 in result[1] without changing
the PLL settings.

5.6.1.4.3

Exact solution cannot be found (PLL)
command[0] = 12000;
command[1] = 25000;
command[2] = CPU_FREQ_EQU;
command[3] = 0;
(*rom)->pWRD->set_pll(command, result);
The above code specifies a 12 MHz PLL input clock and a system clock of exactly
25 MHz. The application was ready to infinitely wait for the PLL to lock. Since there is no
valid PLL setup within earlier mentioned restrictions, set_pll returns
PLL_FREQ_NOT_FOUND in result[0] and 12000 in result[1] without changing the PLL
settings.

5.6.1.4.4

System clock less than or equal to the expected value
command[0] = 12000;
command[1] = 25000;
command[2] = CPU_FREQ_LTE;
command[3] = 0;
(*rom)->pWRD->set_pll(command, result);
The above code specifies a 12 MHz PLL input clock, a system clock of no more than
25 MHz and no locking time-out. set_pll returns PLL_CMD_SUCCESS in result[0] and
24000 in result[1]. The new system clock is 24 MHz.

5.6.1.4.5

System clock greater than or equal to the expected value
command[0] = 12000;
command[1] = 25000;
command[2] = CPU_FREQ_GTE;
command[3] = 0;
(*rom)->pWRD->set_pll(command, result);
The above code specifies a 12 MHz PLL input clock, a system clock of at least 25 MHz
and no locking time-out. set_pll returns PLL_CMD_SUCCESS in result[0] and 36000 in
result[1]. The new system clock is 36 MHz.

5.6.1.4.6

System clock approximately equal to the expected value
command[0] = 12000;
command[1] = 16500;
command[2] = CPU_FREQ_APPROX;
command[3] = 0;
(*rom)->pWRD->set_pll(command, result);
The above code specifies a 12 MHz PLL input clock, a system clock of approximately
16.5 MHz and no locking time-out. set_pll returns PLL_CMD_SUCCESS in result[0] and
16000 in result[1]. The new system clock is 16 MHz.

5.7 Power routine
5.7.1 set_power
This routine configures the device’s internal power control settings according to the calling
arguments. The goal is to reduce active power consumption while maintaining the feature
of interest to the application close to its optimum.
Remark: The set_power routine was designed for systems employing the configuration of
SYSAHBCLKDIV = 1 (System clock divider register, see Table 23 and Figure 11). Using
this routine in an application with the system clock divider not equal to 1 might not improve
microcontroller’s performance as much as in setups when the main clock and the system
clock are running at the same rate.
set_power returns a result code that reports whether the power setting was successfully
changed or not.

For a simplified clock configuration scheme see Figure 11. For more details see Figure 7.

5.7.1.1 Param0: main clock
The main clock is the clock rate the microcontroller uses to source the system’s and the
peripherals’ clock. It is configured by either a successful execution of the clocking routine
call or a similar code provided by the user. This operand must be an integer between 1 to
50 MHz inclusive. If a value out of this range is supplied, set_power returns
PWR_INVALID_FREQ and does not change the power control system.

5.7.1.2 Param1: mode
The input parameter mode (Param1) specifies one of four available power settings. If an
illegal selection is provided, set_power returns PWR_INVALID_MODE and does not
change the power control system.
PWR_DEFAULT keeps the device in a baseline power setting similar to its reset state.
PWR_CPU_PERFORMANCE configures the microcontroller so that it can provide more
processing capability to the application. CPU performance is 30% better than the default
option.
PWR_EFFICIENCY setting was designed to find a balance between active current and
the CPU’s ability to execute code and process data. In this mode the device outperforms
the default mode both in terms of providing higher CPU performance and lowering active
current.
PWR_LOW_CURRENT is intended for those solutions that focus on lowering power
consumption rather than CPU performance.

5.7.1.3 Param2: system clock
The system clock is the clock rate at which the microcontroller core is running when
set_power is called. This parameter is an integer between from 1 and 50 MHz inclusive.

5.7.1.4 Code examples
The following examples illustrate some of the set_power features discussed above.
5.7.1.4.1

Invalid frequency (device maximum clock rate exceeded)
command[0] = 60;
command[1] = PWR_CPU_PERFORMANCE;
command[2] = 60;
(*rom)->pWRD->set_power(command, result);
The above setup would be used in a system running at the main and system clock of
60 MHz, with a need for maximum CPU processing power. Since the specified 60 MHz
clock is above the 50 MHz maximum, set_power returns PWR_INVALID_FREQ in
result[0] without changing anything in the existing power setup.

5.7.1.4.2

An applicable power setup
command[0] = 24;
command[1] = PWR_CPU_EFFICIENCY;
command[2] = 24;

6.5.3 Interrupt Set Pending Register 0 register
The ISPR0 register allows setting the pending state of the peripheral interrupts, or for
reading the pending state of those interrupts. Clear the pending state of interrupts through
the ICPR0 registers (Section 6.5.4).
The bit description is as follows for all bits in this register:
Write — Writing 0 has no effect, writing 1 changes the interrupt state to pending.
Read — 0 indicates that the interrupt is not pending, 1 indicates that the interrupt is
pending.

Fig 13. Standard I/O pin configuration

7.3.1 Pin function
The FUNC bits in the IOCON registers can be set to GPIO (FUNC = 000) or to a
peripheral function. If the pins are GPIO pins, the DIR registers determine whether the pin
is configured as an input or output (see Section 9.5.3.3). For any peripheral function, the
pin direction is controlled automatically depending on the pin’s functionality. The DIR
registers have no effect for peripheral functions.

7.3.2 Pin mode
The MODE bits in the IOCON register allow the selection of on-chip pull-up or pull-down
resistors for each pin or select the repeater mode.
The possible on-chip resistor configurations are pull-up enabled, pull-down enabled, or no
pull-up/pull-down. The default value is pull-up enabled.
The repeater mode enables the pull-up resistor if the pin is at a logic HIGH and enables
the pull-down resistor if the pin is at a logic LOW. This causes the pin to retain its last
known state if it is configured as an input and is not driven externally. The state retention is

not applicable to the Deep power-down mode. Repeater mode may typically be used to
prevent a pin from floating (and potentially using significant power if it floats to an
indeterminate state) if it is temporarily not driven.

7.3.3 Hysteresis
The input buffer for digital functions can be configured with hysteresis or as plain buffer
through the IOCON registers.
If the external pad supply voltage VDD is between 2.5 V and 3.6 V, the hysteresis buffer
can be enabled or disabled. If VDD is below 2.5 V, the hysteresis buffer must be disabled
to use the pin in input mode.

7.3.4 Input inverter
If the input inverter is enabled, a HIGH pin level is inverted to 0 and a LOW pin level is
inverted to 1.

7.3.5 Input glitch filter
Selected pins (pins PIO0_22, PIO0_23, and PIO0_11 to PIO0_16) provide the option of
turning on or off a 10 ns input glitch filter. The glitch filter is turned on by default. The
RESET pin has a 20 ns glitch filter (not configurable).

7.3.6 Open-drain mode
A pseudo open-drain mode can be supported for all digital pins. Note that except for the
I2C-bus pins, this is not a true open-drain mode.

7.3.7 Analog mode
In analog mode, the digital receiver is disconnected to obtain an accurate input voltage for
analog-to-digital conversions. This mode can be selected in those IOCON registers that
control pins with an analog function. If analog mode is selected, hysteresis, pin mode,
inverter, glitch filter, and open-drain settings have no effect.
For pins without analog functions, the analog mode setting has no effect.

7.3.8 I2C mode
If the I2C function is selected by the FUNC bits of registers PIO0_4 (Table 80) and PIO0_5
(Table 81), then the I2C-bus pins can be configured for different I2C-modes:

• Standard mode/Fast-mode I2C with 50 ns input glitch filter. An open-drain output
according to the I2C-bus specification can be configured separately.

• Fast-mode Plus I2C with 50 ns input glitch filter. In this mode, the pins function as
high-current sinks. An open-drain output according to the I2C-bus specification can be
configured separately.

• Standard functionality without input filter.
Remark: Either Standard mode/Fast-mode I2C or Standard I/O functionality should be
selected if the pin is used as GPIO pin.

7.4 Register description
The I/O configuration registers control the PIO port pins, the inputs and outputs of all
peripherals and functional blocks, the I2C-bus pins, and the ADC input pins.
Each port pin PIOn_m has one IOCON register assigned to control the pin’s function and
electrical characteristics.

Chapter 8: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Pin configuration

8.2.1 LPC11U1x pin description
Table 132 shows all pins and their assigned digital or analog functions ordered by GPIO
port number. The default function after reset is listed first. All port pins have internal
pull-up resistors enabled after reset with the exception of the true open-drain pins PIO0_4
and PIO0_5.
Every port pin has a corresponding IOCON register for programming the digital or analog
function, the pull-up/pull-down configuration, the repeater, and the open-drain modes.
The USART, counter/timer, and SSP functions are available on more than one port pin.
Table 133 shows how peripheral functions are assigned to port pins.

RESET — External reset input with 20 ns glitch
filter. A LOW-going pulse as short as 50 ns on
this pin resets the device, causing I/O ports and
peripherals to take on their default states, and
processor execution to begin at address 0. This
pin also serves as the debug select input. LOW
level selects the JTAG boundary scan. HIGH
level selects the ARM SWD debug mode.

[1]

[2]

I; PU

In deep power-down mode, this pin must be
pulled HIGH externally. The RESET pin can be
left unconnected or be used as a GPIO pin if an
external RESET function is not needed and
Deep power-down mode is not used.

Chapter 8: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Pin configuration

[1]

Pin state at reset for default function: I = Input; O = Output; PU = internal pull-up enabled; IA = inactive, no pull-up/down enabled;
F = floating; floating pins, if not used, should be tied to ground or power to minimize power consumption.

[2]

RESET functionality is not available in Deep power-down mode. Use the WAKEUP pin to reset the chip and wake up from Deep
power-down mode. An external pull-up resistor is required on this pin for the Deep power-down mode.

[3]

5 V tolerant pad providing digital I/O functions with configurable pull-up/pull-down resistors and configurable hysteresis.

[4]

I2C-bus pins compliant with the I2C-bus specification for I2C standard mode, I2C Fast-mode, and I2C Fast-mode Plus. The pin requires
an external pull-up to provide output functionality. When power is switched off, this pin is floating and does not disturb the I2C lines.
Open-drain configuration applies to all functions on this pin.

[5]

5 V tolerant pad providing digital I/O functions with configurable pull-up/pull-down resistors and configurable hysteresis; includes
high-current output driver.

[6]

5 V tolerant pad providing digital I/O functions with configurable pull-up/pull-down resistors, configurable hysteresis, and analog input.
When configured as a ADC input, digital section of the pad is disabled and the pin is not 5 V tolerant; includes digital input glitch filter.

[7]

Pad provides USB functions. It is designed in accordance with the USB specification, revision 2.0 (Full-speed and Low-speed mode
only). This pad is not 5 V tolerant.

[8]

When the system oscillator is not used, connect XTALIN and XTALOUT as follows: XTALIN can be left floating or can be grounded
(grounding is preferred to reduce susceptibility to noise). XTALOUT should be left floating.

To assign a peripheral function to a port, program the FUNC bits in the port pin’s IOCON
register with this function. The user must ensure that the assignment of a function to a port
pin is unambiguous. Only the debug functions for JTAG and SWD are selected by default
in their corresponding IOCON registers. All other functions must be programmed in the
IOCON block before they can be used. For details see Section 7.3.

RESET — External reset input with 20 ns glitch filter. A
LOW-going pulse as short as 50 ns on this pin resets the
device, causing I/O ports and peripherals to take on their
default states, and processor execution to begin at address
0. This pin also serves as the debug select input. LOW
level selects the JTAG boundary scan. HIGH level selects
the ARM SWD debug mode.

In deep power-down mode, this pin must be pulled HIGH
externally. The RESET pin can be left unconnected or be
used as a GPIO pin if an external RESET function is not
needed and Deep power-down mode is not used.

[1]

Pin state at reset for default function: I = Input; O = Output; PU = internal pull-up enabled; IA = inactive, no pull-up/down enabled;
F = floating; If the pins are not used, tie floating pins to ground or power to minimize power consumption.

[2]

RESET functionality is not available in Deep power-down mode. Use the WAKEUP pin to reset the chip and wake up from Deep
power-down mode. An external pull-up resistor is required on this pin for the Deep power-down mode.

[3]

5 V tolerant pad providing digital I/O functions with configurable pull-up/pull-down resistors and configurable hysteresis.

[4]

I2C-bus pins compliant with the I2C-bus specification for I2C standard mode, I2C Fast-mode, and I2C Fast-mode Plus. The pin requires
an external pull-up to provide output functionality. When power is switched off, this pin is floating and does not disturb the I2C lines.
Open-drain configuration applies to all functions on this pin.

[5]

5 V tolerant pad providing digital I/O functions with configurable pull-up/pull-down resistors and configurable hysteresis; includes
high-current output driver.

[6]

5 V tolerant pad providing digital I/O functions with configurable pull-up/pull-down resistors, configurable hysteresis, and analog input.
When configured as a ADC input, digital section of the pad is disabled and the pin is not 5 V tolerant; includes digital input glitch filter.

[7]

Pad provides USB functions. It is designed in accordance with the USB specification, revision 2.0 (Full-speed and Low-speed mode
only). This pad is not 5 V tolerant.

[8]

When the system oscillator is not used, connect XTALIN and XTALOUT as follows: XTALIN can be left floating or can be grounded
(grounding is preferred to reduce susceptibility to noise). Leave XTALOUT floating.

PIO0_16 — General purpose digital input/output pin.
In Deep power-down mode, this pin functions as the
WAKEUP pin with 20 ns glitch filter. Pull this pin HIGH
externally to enter Deep power-down mode. Pull this
pin LOW to exit Deep power-down mode. A
LOW-going pulse as short as 50 ns wakes up the
part.

I; PU

In deep power-down mode, this pin must be pulled
HIGH externally. The RESET pin can be left
unconnected or be used as a GPIO pin if an external
RESET function is not needed and Deep power-down
mode is not used.

5 V tolerant pad providing digital I/O functions with configurable pull-up/pull-down resistors, configurable hysteresis, and analog input.
When configured as a ADC input, digital section of the pad is disabled and the pin is not 5 V tolerant; includes digital input glitch filter.

[7]

Pad provides USB functions. It is designed in accordance with the USB specification, revision 2.0 (Full-speed and Low-speed mode
only). This pad is not 5 V tolerant.

[8]

When the system oscillator is not used, connect XTALIN and XTALOUT as follows: XTALIN can be left floating or can be grounded
(grounding is preferred to reduce susceptibility to noise). Leave XTALOUT floating.

9.2 Basic configuration
Various register blocks must be enabled to use the GPIO port and pin interrupt features:

• For the pin interrupts, select up to 8 external interrupt pins from all GPIO port pins in
the SYSCON block (Table 40) and enable the clock to the pin interrupt register block
in the SYSAHBCLKCTRL register (Table 24, bit 19). The pin interrupt wake-up feature
is enabled in the STARTERP0 register (Table 43).

• For the group interrupt feature, enable the clock to the GROUP0 and GROUP1
register interfaces in the SYSAHBCLKCTRL register ((Table 24, bit 19). The group
interrupt wake-up feature is enabled in the STARTERP1 register (Table 44).

• For the GPIO port registers, enable the clock to the GPIO port register in the
SYSAHBCLKCTRL register (Table 24, bit 6).

9.3 Features
9.3.1 GPIO pin interrupt features
• Up to 8 pins can be selected from all GPIO pins as edge- or level-sensitive interrupt
requests. Each request creates a separate interrupt in the NVIC.

• Edge-sensitive interrupt pins can interrupt on rising or falling edges or both.
• Level-sensitive interrupt pins can be HIGH- or LOW-active.
9.3.2 GPIO group interrupt features
• The inputs from any number of GPIO pins can be enabled to contribute to a combined
group interrupt.

• The polarity of each input enabled for the group interrupt can be configured HIGH or
LOW.

• Enabled interrupts can be logically combined through an OR or AND operation.

Chapter 9: LPC11U3x/2x/1x GPIO

• Two group interrupts are supported to reflect two distinct interrupt patterns.
• The GPIO group interrupts can wake up the part from sleep, deep-sleep or
power-down modes.

9.3.3 GPIO port features
• GPIO pins can be configured as input or output by software.
• All GPIO pins default to inputs with interrupt disabled at reset.
• Pin registers allow pins to be sensed and set individually.

9.4 Introduction
The GPIO pins can be used in several ways to set pins as inputs or outputs and use the
inputs as combinations of level and edge sensitive interrupts.

9.4.1 GPIO pin interrupts
From all available GPIO pins, up to eight pins can be selected in the system control block
to serve as external interrupt pins (see Table 40). The external interrupt pins are
connected to eight individual interrupts in the NVIC and are created based on rising or
falling edges or on the input level on the pin.

9.4.2 GPIO group interrupt
For each port/pin connected to one of the two the GPIO Grouped Interrupt blocks
(GROUP0 and GROUP1), the GPIO grouped interrupt registers determine which pins are
enabled to generate interrupts and what the active polarities of each of those inputs are.
The GPIO grouped interrupt registers also select whether the interrupt output will be level
or edge triggered and whether it will be based on the OR or the AND of all of the enabled
inputs.
When the designated pattern is detected on the selected input pins, the GPIO grouped
interrupt block will generate an interrupt. If the part is in a power-savings mode it will first
asynchronously wake the part up prior to asserting the interrupt request. The interrupt
request line can be cleared by writing a one to the interrupt status bit in the control
register.

9.4.3 GPIO port
The GPIO port registers can be used to configure each GPIO pin as input or output and
read the state of each pin if the pin is configured as input or set the state of each pin if the
pin is configured as output.

9.5 Register description
The GPIO consists of the following blocks:

• The GPIO pin interrupts block at address 0x4004 C000. Registers in this block enable
the up to 8 pin interrupts selected in the syscon block PINTSEL registers (see
Table 40) and configure the level and edge sensitivity for each selected pin interrupt.

9.6 Functional description
9.6.1 Reading pin state
Software can read the state of all GPIO pins except those selected for analog input or
output in the “I/O Configuration” logic. A pin does not have to be selected for GPIO in “I/O
Configuration” in order to read its state. There are four ways to read pin state:

• The state of a single pin can be read with 7 high-order zeros from a Byte Pin register.
• The state of a single pin can be read in all bits of a byte, halfword, or word from a
Word Pin register.

• The state of multiple pins in a port can be read as a byte, halfword, or word from a
PORT register.

• The state of a selected subset of the pins in a port can be read from a Masked Port
(MPORT) register. Pins having a 1 in the port’s Mask register will read as 0 from its
MPORT register.

9.6.2 GPIO output
Each GPIO pin has an output bit in the GPIO block. These output bits are the targets of
write operations “to the pins”. Two conditions must be met in order for a pin’s output bit to
be driven onto the pin:
1. The pin must be selected for GPIO operation in the “I/O Configuration” block, and
2. the pin must be selected for output by a 1 in its port’s DIR register.
If either or both of these conditions is (are) not met, “writing to the pin” has no effect.
There are seven ways to change GPIO output bits:

• Writing to a Byte Pin register loads the output bit from the least significant bit.
• Writing to a Word Pin register loads the output bit with the OR of all of the bits written.
(This feature follows the definition of “truth” of a multi-bit value in programming
languages.)

• Writing to a port’s PORT register loads the output bits of all the pins written to.

Chapter 9: LPC11U3x/2x/1x GPIO

• Writing to a port’s MPORT register loads the output bits of pins identified by zeros in
corresponding positions of the port’s MASK register.

• Writing ones to a port’s SET register sets output bits.
• Writing ones to a port’s CLR register clears output bits.
• Writing ones to a port’s NOT register toggles/complements/inverts output bits.
The state of a port’s output bits can be read from its SET register. Reading any of the
registers described in 9.6.1 returns the state of pins, regardless of their direction or
alternate functions.

9.6.3 Masked I/O
A port’s MASK register defines which of its pins should be accessible in its MPORT
register. Zeroes in MASK enable the corresponding pins to be read from and written to
MPORT. Ones in MASK force a pin to read as 0 and its output bit to be unaffected by
writes to MPORT. When a port’s MASK register contains all zeros, its PORT and MPORT
registers operate identically for reading and writing.
Applications in which interrupts can result in Masked GPIO operation, or in task switching
among tasks that do Masked GPIO operation, must treat code that uses the Mask register
as a protected/restricted region. This can be done by interrupt disabling or by using a
semaphore.
The simpler way to protect a block of code that uses a MASK register is to disable
interrupts before setting the MASK register, and re-enable them after the last operation
that uses the MPORT or MASK register.
More efficiently, software can dedicate a semaphore to the MASK registers, and
set/capture the semaphore controlling exclusive use of the MASK registers before setting
the MASK registers, and release the semaphore after the last operation that uses the
MPORT or MASK registers.

9.6.4 GPIO Interrupts
Two separate GPIO interrupt facilities are provided. With pin interrupts, up to eight GPIO
pins can each have separately-vectored, edge- or level-sensitive interrupts.
With group interrupts, any subset of the pins in each port can be selected to contribute to
a common interrupt. Any of the pin and port interrupts can be enabled to wake the part
from Deep-sleep mode or Power-down mode.

9.6.4.1 Pin interrupts
In this interrupt facility, up to 8 pins are identified as interrupt sources by the Pin Interrupt
Select registers (PINTSEL0-7). All registers in the pin interrupt block contain 8 bits,
corresponding to the pins called out by the PINTSEL0-7 registers. The ISEL register
defines whether each interrupt pin is edge- or level-sensitive. The RISE and FALL
registers detect edges on each interrupt pin, and can be written to clear (and set) edge
detection. The IST register indicates whether each interrupt pin is currently requesting an
interrupt, and this register can also be written to clear interrupts.
The other pin interrupt registers play different roles for edge-sensitive and level-sensitive
pins, as described in Table 174.

9.6.4.2 Group interrupts
In this interrupt facility, an interrupt can be requested for each port, based on any selected
subset of pins within each port. The pins that contribute to each port interrupt are selected
by 1s in the port’s Enable register, and an interrupt polarity can be selected for each pin in
the port’s Polarity register. The level on each pin is exclusive-ORed with its polarity bit and
the result is ANDed with its enable bit, and these results are then inclusive-ORed among
all the pins in the port, to create the port’s raw interrupt request.
The raw interrupt request from each of the two group interrupts is sent to the NVIC, which
can be programmed to treat it as level- or edge-sensitive (see Section 6.4), or it can be
edge-detected by the wake-up interrupt logic (see Section 3.5.37).

9.6.5 Recommended practices
The following lists some recommended uses for using the GPIO port registers:

•
•
•
•

For initial setup after Reset or re-initialization, write the PORT register(s).
To change the state of one pin, write a Byte Pin or Word Pin register.
To change the state of multiple pins at a time, write the SET and/or CLR registers.
To change the state of multiple pins in a tightly controlled environment like a software
state machine, consider using the NOT register. This can require less write operations
than SET and CLR.

• To read the state of one pin, read a Byte Pin or Word Pin register.
• To make a decision based on multiple pins, read and mask a PORT register.

10.1 How to read this chapter
The USB on-chip drivers are available on parts LPC11U2x and LPC11U3x only.

10.2 Introduction
The boot ROM contains a USB driver to simplify the USB application development. The
USB driver implements the Communication Device Class (CDC), the Human Interface
Device (HID), and the Mass Storage Device (MSC) device class. The USB on-chip drivers
support composite device.

10.3 USB driver functions
The USB device driver ROM API consists of the following modules:

• Communication Device Class (CDC) function driver. This module contains an internal
implementation of the USB CDC Class. User applications can use this class driver
instead of implementing the CDC-ACM class manually via the low-level USBD_HW
and USBD_Core APIs. This module is designed to simplify the user code by exposing
only the required interface needed to interface with Devices using the USB CDC-ACM
Class.
– Communication Device Class function driver initialization parameter data structure
(Table 202 “USBD_CDC_INIT_PARAM class structure”).
– CDC class API functions structure. This module exposes functions which interact
directly with USB device controller hardware (Table 201 “USBD_CDC_API class
structure”).

• USB core layer
– struct (Table 198 “_WB_T class structure”)
– union (Table 175 “__WORD_BYTE class structure”)
– struct (Table 176 “_BM_T class structure”)
– struct (Table 189 “_REQUEST_TYPE class structure”)
– struct (Table 196 “_USB_SETUP_PACKET class structure”)
– struct (Table 192 “_USB_DEVICE_QUALIFIER_DESCRIPTOR class structure”)
– struct USB device descriptor
– struct (Table 192 “_USB_DEVICE_QUALIFIER_DESCRIPTOR class structure”)
– struct USB configuration descriptor
– struct (Table 194 “_USB_INTERFACE_DESCRIPTOR class structure”)
– struct USB endpoint descriptor
– struct (Table 197 “_USB_STRING_DESCRIPTOR class structure”)

10.4 Calling the USB device driver
A fixed location in ROM contains a pointer to the ROM driver table i.e. 0x1FFF 1FF8. The
ROM driver table contains a pointer to the USB driver table. Pointers to the various USB
driver functions are stored in this table. USB driver functions can be called by using a C
structure. Figure 19 illustrates the pointer mechanism used to access the on-chip USB
driver.

CIC_GetRequest

ErrorCode_t(* USBD_CDC_INIT_PARAM::CIC_GetRequest)(USBD_HANDLE_T hHid, USB_SETUP_PACKET
*pSetup, uint8_t **pBuffer, uint16_t *length)
Communication Interface Class specific get request call-back function.
This function is provided by the application software. This function gets called when host
sends CIC management element get requests.
Remark: Applications implementing Abstract Control Model subclass can set this param to
NULL. As the default driver parses ACM requests and calls the individual ACM call-back
routines defined in this structure. For all other subclasses this routine should be provided by
the application. The setup packet data (pSetup) is passed to the call-back so that application
can extract the CIC request type and other associated data. By default the stack will assign
pBuffer pointer to EP0Buff allocated at init. The application code can directly write data into
this buffer as long as data is less than 64 byte. If more data has to be sent then application
code should update pBuffer pointer and length accordingly.
Parameters:
1. hCdc = Handle to CDC function driver.
2. pSetup = Pointer to setup packet received from host.
3. pBuffer = Pointer to a pointer of data buffer containing request data. Pointer-to-pointer is
used to implement zero-copy buffers. See USBD_ZeroCopy for more details on
zero-copy concept.
4. length = Amount of data to be sent back to host.
Returns:
The call back should returns ErrorCode_t type to indicate success or error condition.
Return values:
1. LPC_OK = On success.
2. ERR_USBD_UNHANDLED = Event is not handled hence pass the event to next in line.
3. ERR_USBD_xxx = For other error conditions.

ErrorCode_t(* USBD_CDC_INIT_PARAM::CIC_SetRequest)(USBD_HANDLE_T hCdc, USB_SETUP_PACKET
*pSetup, uint8_t **pBuffer, uint16_t length)
Communication Interface Class specific set request call-back function.
This function is provided by the application software. This function gets called when host
sends a CIC management element requests.
Remark: Applications implementing Abstract Control Model subclass can set this param to
NULL. As the default driver parses ACM requests and calls the individual ACM call-back
routines defined in this structure. For all other subclasses this routine should be provided by
the application. The setup packet data (pSetup) is passed to the call-back so that application
can extract the CIC request type and other associated data. If a set request has data
associated, then this call-back is called twice. (1) First when setup request is received, at this
time application code could update pBuffer pointer to point to the intended destination. The
length param is set to 0 so that application code knows this is first time. By default the stack
will assign pBuffer pointer to EP0Buff allocated at init. Note, if data length is greater than 64
bytes and application code doesn't update pBuffer pointer the stack will send STALL
condition to host. (2) Second when the data is received from the host. This time the length
param is set with number of data bytes received.
Parameters:
1. hCdc = Handle to CDC function driver.
2. pSetup = Pointer to setup packet received from host.
3. pBuffer = Pointer to a pointer of data buffer containing request data. Pointer-to-pointer is

MSC Read callback function.
This function is provided by the application software. This function gets called when host
sends a read command.
Parameters:
1. offset = Source start address.
2. dst = Pointer to a pointer to the source of data. The MSC function drivers implemented in
stack are written with zero-copy model. Meaning the stack doesn't make an extra copy of
buffer before writing/reading data from USB hardware FIFO. Hence the parameter is
pointer to a pointer containing address buffer (uint8_t** dst). So that the user application
can update the buffer pointer instead of copying data to address pointed by the
parameter. /note The updated buffer address should be access able by USB DMA
master. If user doesn't want to use zero-copy model, then the user should copy data to
the address pointed by the passed buffer pointer parameter and shouldn't change the
address value. See Zero-Copy Data Transfer model for more details on zero-copy
concept.
3. length = Number of bytes to be read.
Returns:
Nothing.

11.4 General description
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a four-wire bus that supports communication between a
host and one or more (up to 127) peripherals. The host controller allocates the USB
bandwidth to attached devices through a token-based protocol. The bus supports hot
plugging and dynamic configuration of the devices. All transactions are initiated by the
host controller.
The host schedules transactions in 1 ms frames. Each frame contains a Start-Of-Frame
(SOF) marker and transactions that transfer data to or from device endpoints. Each device
can have a maximum of 16 logical or 32 physical endpoints. The LPC11U3x/2x/1x device
controller supports up to 10 physical endpoints. There are four types of transfers defined
for the endpoints. Control transfers are used to configure the device.
Interrupt transfers are used for periodic data transfer. Bulk transfers are used when the
latency of transfer is not critical. Isochronous transfers have guaranteed delivery time but
no error correction.

11.4.3 SoftConnect
The connection to the USB is accomplished by bringing USB_DP (for a full-speed device)
HIGH through a 1.5 kOhm pull-up resistor. The SoftConnect feature can be used to allow
software to finish its initialization sequence before deciding to establish connection to the
USB. Re-initialization of the USB bus connection can also be performed without having to
unplug the cable.

NXP Semiconductors

Chapter 11: LPC11U3x/2x/1x USB2.0 device controller

To use the SoftConnect feature, the CONNECT signal should control an external switch
that connects the 1.5 kOhm resistor between USB_DP and VDD (+3.3 V). Software can
then control the CONNECT signal by writing to the DCON bit in the DEVCMDSTAT
register.

11.4.4 Interrupts
The USB controller has two interrupt lines USB_Int_Req_IRQ and USB_Int_Req_FIQ.
Software can program the corresponding bit in the USB interrupt routing register to route
the interrupt condition to one of these entries in the NVIC table Table 59. An interrupt is
generated by the hardware if both the interrupt status bit and the corresponding interrupt
enable bit are set. The interrupt status bit is set by hardware if the interrupt condition
occurs (irrespective of the interrupt enable bit setting).

11.4.5 Suspend and resume
The USB protocol insists on power management by the USB device. This becomes even
more important if the device draws power from the bus (bus-powered device). The
following constraints should be met by the bus-powered device.

• A device in the non-configured state should draw a maximum of 100mA from the
USB bus.

• A configured device can draw only up to what is specified in the Max Power field of
the configuration descriptor. The maximum value is 500 mA.

• A suspended device should draw a maximum of 500 A.
A device will go into the L2 suspend state if there is no activity on the USB bus for more
than 3 ms. A suspended device wakes up, if there is transmission from the host
(host-initiated wake up). The USB controller on the LPC11U3x/2x/1x also supports
software initiated remote wake-up. To initiate remote wake-up, software on the device
must enable all clocks and clear the suspend bit. This will cause the hardware to generate
a remote wake-up signal upstream.
The USB controller on the LPC11U3x/2x/1x supports Link Power Management (LPM).
Link Power Management defines an additional link power management state L1 that
supplements the existing L2 state by utilizing most of the existing suspend/resume
infrastructure but provides much faster transitional latencies between L1 and L0 (On).
The assertion of USB suspend signal indicates that there was no activity on the USB bus
for the last 3 ms. At this time an interrupt is sent to the processor on which the software
can start preparing the device for suspend.
If there is no activity for the next 2 ms, the USB need_clock signal will go low. This
indicates that the USB main clock can be switched off.
When activity is detected on the USB bus, the USB suspend signal is deactivated and
USB need_clock signal is activated. This process is fully combinatorial and hence no USB
main clock is required to activate the US B need_clock signal.

11.4.6 Frame toggle output
The USB_FTOGGLE output pin reflects the 1 kHz clock derived from the incoming Start of
Frame tokens sent by the USB host.

11.4.7 Clocking
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x USB device controller has the following clock connections:

• USB main clock: The USB main clock is the 48 MHz +/- 500 ppm clock from the
dedicated USB PLL or the main clock (see Table 28). If the main clock is used, the
system PLL output must be 48 MHz. The clock source for the USB PLL or the system
PLL must be derived from the system oscillator if the USB is operated in full-speed
mode. For low-speed mode, the IRC is suitable as the clock source.
The USB main clock is used to recover the 12 MHz clock from the USB bus.

• AHB clock: This is the AHB system bus clock. The minimum frequency of the AHB
clock is 6 MHz when the USB device controller is receiving or transmitting USB
packets.

Description

A

RW

Active
The buffer is enabled. HW can use the buffer to store received OUT data or
to transmit data on the IN endpoint.
Software can only set this bit to ‘1’. As long as this bit is set to one,
software is not allowed to update any of the values in this 32-bit word. In
case software wants to deactivate the buffer, it must write a one to the
corresponding “skip” bit in the USB Endpoint skip register. Hardware can
only write this bit to zero. It will do this when it receives a short packet or
when the NBytes field transitions to zero or when software has written a
one to the “skip” bit.

D

RW

Disabled
0: The selected endpoint is enabled.
1: The selected endpoint is disabled.
If a USB token is received for an endpoint that has the disabled bit set,
hardware will ignore the token and not return any data or handshake.
When a bus reset is received, software must set the disable bit of all
endpoints to 1.
Software can only modify this bit when the active bit is zero.

S

RW

Stall
0: The selected endpoint is not stalled
1: The selected endpoint is stalled
The Active bit has always higher priority than the Stall bit. This means that
a Stall handshake is only sent when the active bit is zero and the stall bit is
one.
Software can only modify this bit when the active bit is zero.

TR

RW

Toggle Reset
When software sets this bit to one, the HW will set the toggle value equal to
the value indicated in the “toggle value” (TV) bit.
For the control endpoint zero, this is not needed to be used because the
hardware resets the endpoint toggle to one for both directions when a
setup token is received.
For the other endpoints, the toggle can only be reset to zero when the
endpoint is reset.

RF / TV

RW

Rate Feedback mode / Toggle value
For bulk endpoints and isochronous endpoints this bit is reserved and must
be set to zero.
For the control endpoint zero this bit is used as the toggle value. When the
toggle reset bit is set, the data toggle is updated with the value
programmed in this bit.
When the endpoint is used as an interrupt endpoint, it can be set to the
following values.
0: Interrupt endpoint in ‘toggle mode’
1: Interrupt endpoint in ‘rate feedback mode’. This means that the data
toggle is fixed to zero for all data packets.
When the interrupt endpoint is in ‘rate feedback mode’, the TR bit must
always be set to zero.

Description

RW

Endpoint Type
0: Generic endpoint. The endpoint is configured as a bulk or interrupt
endpoint
1: Isochronous endpoint

NBytes

RW

For OUT endpoints this is the number of bytes that can be received in this
buffer.
For IN endpoints this is the number of bytes that must be transmitted.
HW decrements this value with the packet size every time when a packet is
successfully transferred.
Note: If a short packet is received on an OUT endpoint, the active bit will be
cleared and the NBytes value indicates the remaining buffer space that is
not used. Software calculates the received number of bytes by subtracting
the remaining NBytes from the programmed value.

Address
Offset

RW

Bits 21 to 6 of the buffer start address.
The address offset is updated by hardware after each successful
reception/transmission of a packet. Hardware increments the original value
with the integer value when the packet size is divided by 64.
Examples:

•

If an isochronous packet of 200 bytes is successfully received, the
address offset is incremented by 3.

•

If a packet of 64 bytes is successfully received, the address offset is
incremented by 1.

•

If a packet of less than 64 bytes is received, the address offset is not
incremented.

Remark: When receiving a SETUP token for endpoint zero, the HW will only read the
SETUP bytes Buffer Address offset to know where it has to store the received SETUP
bytes. The hardware will ignore all other fields. In case the SETUP stage contains more
than 8 bytes, it will only write the first 8 bytes to memory. A USB compliant host must
never send more than 8 bytes during the SETUP stage.

11.7.3 Generic endpoint: single-buffering
To enable single-buffering, software must set the corresponding "USB EP Buffer Config"
bit to zero. In the "USB EP Buffer in use" register, software can indicate which buffer is
used in this case.
When software wants to transfer data, it programs the different bits in the Endpoint
command/status entry and sets the active bits. The hardware will transmit/receive multiple
packets for this endpoint until the NBytes value is equal to zero. When NBytes goes to
zero, hardware clears the active bit and sets the corresponding interrupt status bit.

Chapter 11: LPC11U3x/2x/1x USB2.0 device controller

Software must wait until hardware has cleared the Active bit to change some of the
command/status bits. This prevents hardware from overwriting a new value programmed
by software with some old values that were still cached.
If software wants to disable the active bit before the hardware has finished handling the
complete buffer, it can do this by setting the corresponding endpoint skip bit in USB
endpoint skip register.

11.7.4 Generic endpoint: double-buffering
To enable double-buffering, software must set the corresponding "USB EP Buffer Config"
bit to one. The "USB EP Buffer in use" register indicates which buffer will be used by HW
when the next token is received.
When HW clears the active bit of the current buffer in use, it will switch the buffer in use.
Software can also force HW to use a certain buffer by writing to the "USB EP Buffer in
use" bit.

11.7.5 Special cases
11.7.5.1 Use of the Active bit
The use of the Active bit is a bit different between OUT and IN endpoints.
When data must be received for the OUT endpoint, the software will set the Active bit to
one and program the NBytes field to the maximum number of bytes it can receive.
When data must be transmitted for an IN endpoint, the software sets the Active bit to one
and programs the NBytes field to the number of bytes that must be transmitted.

11.7.5.2 Generation of a STALL handshake
Special care must be taken when programming the endpoint to send a STALL handshake.
A STALL handshake is only sent in the following situations:

• The endpoint is enabled (Disabled bit = 0)
• The active bit of the endpoint is set to 0. (No packet needs to be received/transmitted
for that endpoint).

• The stall bit of the endpoint is set to one.
11.7.5.3 Clear Feature (endpoint halt)
When a non-control endpoint has returned a STALL handshake, the host will send a Clear
Feature (Endpoint Halt) for that endpoint. When the device receives this request, the
endpoint must be unstalled and the toggle bit for that endpoint must be reset back to zero.
In order to do that the software must program the following items for the endpoint that is
indicated.
If the endpoint is used in single-buffer mode, program the following:

• Set STALL bit (S) to 0.
• Set toggle reset bit (TR) to 1 and set toggle value bit (TV) to 0.
If the endpoint is used in double-buffer mode, program the following:

• Set the STALL bit of both buffer 0 and buffer 1 to 0.
• Read the buffer in use bit for this endpoint.
• Set the toggle reset bit (TR) to 1 and set the toggle value bit (TV) to 0 for the buffer
indicated by the buffer in use bit.

11.7.5.4 Set configuration
When a SetConfiguration request is received with a configuration value different from
zero, the device software must enable all endpoints that will be used in this configuration
and reset all the toggle values. To do so, it must generate the procedure explained in
Section 11.7.5.3 for every endpoint that will be used in this configuration.
For all endpoints that are not used in this configuration, it must set the Disabled bit (D) to
one.

11.7.6 USB wake-up
11.7.6.1 Waking up from Deep-sleep and Power-down modes on USB activity
To allow the LPC11U3x/2x/1x to wake up from Deep-sleep or Power-down mode on USB
activity, complete the following steps:
1. Set bit AP_CLK in the USBCLKCTRL register (Table 41) to 0 (default) to enable
automatic control of the USB need_clock signal.
2. Wait until USB activity is suspended by polling the DSUS bit in the DSVCMD_STAT
register (DSUS = 1).
3. The USB need_clock signal will be deasserted after another 2 ms. Poll the
USBCLKST register until the USB need_clock status bit is 0 (Table 42).
4. Once the USBCLKST register returns 0, enable the USB activity wake-up interrupt in
the NVIC (# 30) and clear it.
5. Set bit 1 in the USBCLKCTRL register to 1 to trigger the USB activity wake-up
interrupt on the rising edge of the USB need_clock signal.
6. Enable the wake-up from Deep-sleep or Power-down modes on this interrupt by
enabling the USB need_clock signal in the STARTERP1 register (Table 44, bit 19).
7. Enter Deep-sleep or Power-down modes by writing to the PCON register.
8. Execute a WFI instruction.
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x will automatically wake up and resume execution on USB activity.

11.7.6.2 Remote wake-up
To issue a remote wake-up when the USB activity is suspended, complete the following
steps:
1. Set bit AP_CLK in the USBCLKCTRL register to 0 (Table 41, default) to enable
automatic control of the USB need_clock signal.
2. When it is time to issue a remote wake-up, turn on the USB clock and enable the USB
clock source.
3. Force the USB clock on by writing a 1 to bit AP_CLK (Table 41, bit 0) in the
USBCLKCTRL register.
4. Write a 0 to the DSUS bit in the DSVCMD_STAT register.

12.5.1 USART Receiver Buffer Register (when DLAB = 0, Read Only)
The RBR is the top byte of the USART RX FIFO. The top byte of the RX FIFO contains the
oldest character received and can be read via the bus interface. The LSB (bit 0) contains
the first-received data bit. If the character received is less than 8 bits, the unused MSBs
are padded with zeros.
The Divisor Latch Access Bit (DLAB) in the LCR must be zero in order to access the RBR.
The RBR is always Read Only.
Since PE, FE and BI bits (see Table 241) correspond to the byte on the top of the RBR
FIFO (i.e. the one that will be read in the next read from the RBR), the right approach for
fetching the valid pair of received byte and its status bits is first to read the content of the
LSR register, and then to read a byte from the RBR.

12.5.3 USART Divisor Latch LSB and MSB Registers (when DLAB = 1)
The USART Divisor Latch is part of the USART Baud Rate Generator and holds the value
used (optionally with the Fractional Divider) to divide the UART_PCLK clock in order to
produce the baud rate clock, which must be the multiple of the desired baud rate that is
specified by the Oversampling Register (typically 16X). The DLL and DLM registers
together form a 16-bit divisor. DLL contains the lower 8 bits of the divisor and DLM
contains the higher 8 bits. A zero value is treated like 0x0001. The Divisor Latch Access
Bit (DLAB) in the LCR must be one in order to access the USART Divisor Latches. Details
on how to select the right value for DLL and DLM can be found in Section 12.5.14.

Chapter 12: LPC11U3x/2x/1x USART

Bits IIR[9:8] are set by the auto-baud function and signal a time-out or end of auto-baud
condition. The auto-baud interrupt conditions are cleared by setting the corresponding
Clear bits in the Auto-baud Control Register.
If the IntStatus bit is one and no interrupt is pending and the IntId bits will be zero. If the
IntStatus is 0, a non auto-baud interrupt is pending in which case the IntId bits identify the
type of interrupt and handling as described in Table 236. Given the status of IIR[3:0], an
interrupt handler routine can determine the cause of the interrupt and how to clear the
active interrupt. The IIR must be read in order to clear the interrupt prior to exiting the
Interrupt Service Routine.
The USART RLS interrupt (IIR[3:1] = 011) is the highest priority interrupt and is set
whenever any one of four error conditions occur on the USART RX input: overrun error
(OE), parity error (PE), framing error (FE) and break interrupt (BI). The USART Rx error
condition that set the interrupt can be observed via LSR[4:1]. The interrupt is cleared upon
a LSR read.
The USART RDA interrupt (IIR[3:1] = 010) shares the second level priority with the CTI
interrupt (IIR[3:1] = 110). The RDA is activated when the USART Rx FIFO reaches the
trigger level defined in FCR7:6 and is reset when the USART Rx FIFO depth falls below
the trigger level. When the RDA interrupt goes active, the CPU can read a block of data
defined by the trigger level.
The CTI interrupt (IIR[3:1] = 110) is a second level interrupt and is set when the USART
Rx FIFO contains at least one character and no USART Rx FIFO activity has occurred in
3.5 to 4.5 character times. Any USART Rx FIFO activity (read or write of USART RSR) will
clear the interrupt. This interrupt is intended to flush the USART RBR after a message has
been received that is not a multiple of the trigger level size. For example, if a 105
character message was to be sent and the trigger level was 10 characters, the CPU would
receive 10 RDA interrupts resulting in the transfer of 100 characters and 1 to 5 CTI
interrupts (depending on the service routine) resulting in the transfer of the remaining 5
characters.

The USART THRE interrupt (IIR[3:1] = 001) is a third level interrupt and is activated when
the USART THR FIFO is empty provided certain initialization conditions have been met.
These initialization conditions are intended to give the USART THR FIFO a chance to fill
up with data to eliminate many THRE interrupts from occurring at system start-up. The
initialization conditions implement a one character delay minus the stop bit whenever
THRE = 1 and there have not been at least two characters in the THR at one time since
the last THRE = 1 event. This delay is provided to give the CPU time to write data to THR
without a THRE interrupt to decode and service. A THRE interrupt is set immediately if the
USART THR FIFO has held two or more characters at one time and currently, the THR is
empty. The THRE interrupt is reset when a THR write occurs or a read of the IIR occurs
and the THRE is the highest interrupt (IIR[3:1] = 001).
The modem status interrupt (IIR3:1 = 000) is the lowest priority USART interrupt and is
activated whenever there is a state change on the CTS, DCD, or DSR or a trailing edge
on the RI pin. The source of the modem interrupt can be read in MSR3:0. Reading the
MSR clears the modem interrupt.

12.5.8.1 Auto-flow control
If auto-RTS mode is enabled, the USART‘s receiver FIFO hardware controls the RTS
output of the USART. If the auto-CTS mode is enabled, the USART‘s transmitter will only
start sending if the CTS pin is low.
12.5.8.1.1

Auto-RTS
The auto-RTS function is enabled by setting the RTSen bit. Auto-RTS data flow control
originates in the RBR module and is linked to the programmed receiver FIFO trigger level.
If auto-RTS is enabled, the data-flow is controlled as follows:
When the receiver FIFO level reaches the programmed trigger level, RTS is deasserted
(to a high value). It is possible that the sending USART sends an additional byte after the
trigger level is reached (assuming the sending USART has another byte to send) because
it might not recognize the deassertion of RTS until after it has begun sending the
additional byte. RTS is automatically reasserted (to a low value) once the receiver FIFO
has reached the previous trigger level. The reassertion of RTS signals the sending
USART to continue transmitting data.
If Auto-RTS mode is disabled, the RTSen bit controls the RTS output of the USART. If
Auto-RTS mode is enabled, hardware controls the RTS output, and the actual value of
RTS will be copied in the RTS Control bit of the USART. As long as Auto-RTS is enabled,
the value of the RTS Control bit is read-only for software.
Example: Suppose the USART operating in type ‘550 mode has the trigger level in FCR
set to 0x2, then, if Auto-RTS is enabled, the USART will deassert the RTS output as soon
as the receive FIFO contains 8 bytes (Table 237 on page 247). The RTS output will be
reasserted as soon as the receive FIFO hits the previous trigger level: 4 bytes.

Auto-CTS
The Auto-CTS function is enabled by setting the CTSen bit. If Auto-CTS is enabled, the
transmitter circuitry checks the CTS input before sending the next data byte. When CTS is
active (low), the transmitter sends the next byte. To stop the transmitter from sending the
following byte, CTS must be released before the middle of the last stop bit that is currently
being sent. In Auto-CTS mode, a change of the CTS signal does not trigger a modem
status interrupt unless the CTS Interrupt Enable bit is set, but the Delta CTS bit in the
MSR will be set. Table 240 lists the conditions for generating a Modem Status interrupt.

The auto-CTS function typically eliminates the need for CTS interrupts. When flow control
is enabled, a CTS state change does not trigger host interrupts because the device
automatically controls its own transmitter. Without Auto-CTS, the transmitter sends any
data present in the transmit FIFO and a receiver overrun error can result. Figure 26
illustrates the Auto-CTS functional timing.

During transmission of the second character the CTS signal is negated. The third
character is not sent thereafter. The USART maintains 1 on TXD as long as CTS is
negated (high). As soon as CTS is asserted, transmission resumes and a start bit is sent
followed by the data bits of the next character.

zeros) for one full character transmission (start, data, parity,
stop), a break interrupt occurs. Once the break condition has
been detected, the receiver goes idle until RXD1 goes to
marking state (all ones). A LSR read clears this status bit. The
time of break detection is dependent on FCR[0].

time of the receive data stream and set the divisor latch registers DLM and DLL
accordingly.
Auto-baud is started by setting the ACR Start bit. Auto-baud can be stopped by clearing
the ACR Start bit. The Start bit will clear once auto-baud has finished and reading the bit
will return the status of auto-baud (pending/finished).

Chapter 12: LPC11U3x/2x/1x USART

Two auto-baud measuring modes are available which can be selected by the ACR Mode
bit. In Mode 0 the baud rate is measured on two subsequent falling edges of the USART
Rx pin (the falling edge of the start bit and the falling edge of the least significant bit). In
Mode 1 the baud rate is measured between the falling edge and the subsequent rising
edge of the USART Rx pin (the length of the start bit).
The ACR AutoRestart bit can be used to automatically restart baud rate measurement if a
time-out occurs (the rate measurement counter overflows). If this bit is set, the rate
measurement will restart at the next falling edge of the USART Rx pin.
The auto-baud function can generate two interrupts.

• The IIR ABTOInt interrupt will get set if the interrupt is enabled (IER ABToIntEn is set
and the auto-baud rate measurement counter overflows).

• The IIR ABEOInt interrupt will get set if the interrupt is enabled (IER ABEOIntEn is set
and the auto-baud has completed successfully).
The auto-baud interrupts have to be cleared by setting the corresponding ACR
ABTOIntClr and ABEOIntEn bits.
The fractional baud rate generator must be disabled (DIVADDVAL = 0) during auto-baud.
Also, when auto-baud is used, any write to DLM and DLL registers should be done before
ACR register write. The minimum and the maximum baud rates supported by USART are
a function of USART_PCLK and the number of data bits, stop bits and parity bits.

12.5.12.2 Auto-baud modes
When the software is expecting an “AT” command, it configures the USART with the
expected character format and sets the ACR Start bit. The initial values in the divisor
latches DLM and DLM don‘t care. Because of the “A” or “a” ASCII coding (“A” = 0x41,
“a” = 0x61), the USART Rx pin sensed start bit and the LSB of the expected character are
delimited by two falling edges. When the ACR Start bit is set, the auto-baud protocol will
execute the following phases:
1. On ACR Start bit setting, the baud rate measurement counter is reset and the USART
RSR is reset. The RSR baud rate is switched to the highest rate.
2. A falling edge on USART Rx pin triggers the beginning of the start bit. The rate
measuring counter will start counting UART_PCLK cycles.
3. During the receipt of the start bit, 16 pulses are generated on the RSR baud input with
the frequency of the USART input clock, guaranteeing the start bit is stored in the
RSR.
4. During the receipt of the start bit (and the character LSB for Mode = 0), the rate
counter will continue incrementing with the pre-scaled USART input clock
(UART_PCLK).
5. If Mode = 0, the rate counter will stop on next falling edge of the USART Rx pin. If
Mode = 1, the rate counter will stop on the next rising edge of the USART Rx pin.

be set, if enabled. The RSR will now continue receiving the remaining bits of the

12.5.14 USART Fractional Divider Register
The USART Fractional Divider Register (FDR) controls the clock pre-scaler for the baud
rate generation and can be read and written at the user’s discretion. This pre-scaler takes
the APB clock and generates an output clock according to the specified fractional
requirements.
Important: If the fractional divider is active (DIVADDVAL > 0) and DLM = 0, the value of
the DLL register must be 3 or greater.

This register controls the clock pre-scaler for the baud rate generation. The reset value of
the register keeps the fractional capabilities of USART disabled making sure that USART
is fully software and hardware compatible with USARTs not equipped with this feature.
The USART baud rate can be calculated as:

16   256  U0DLM + U0DLL    1 + -----------------------------

MulVal 

(3)

Where UART_PCLK is the peripheral clock, DLM and DLL are the standard USART baud
rate divider registers, and DIVADDVAL and MULVAL are USART fractional baud rate
generator specific parameters.
The value of MULVAL and DIVADDVAL should comply to the following conditions:
1. 1 MULVAL  15
2. 0  DIVADDVAL  14
3. DIVADDVAL< MULVAL
The value of the FDR should not be modified while transmitting/receiving data or data may
be lost or corrupted.
If the FDR register value does not comply to these two requests, then the fractional divider
output is undefined. If DIVADDVAL is zero then the fractional divider is disabled, and the
clock will not be divided.

Example 1: UART_PCLK = 14.7456 MHz, BR = 9600
According to the provided algorithm DLest = PCLK/(16 x BR) = 14.7456 MHz / (16 x 9600)
= 96. Since this DLest is an integer number, DIVADDVAL = 0, MULVAL = 1, DLM = 0, and
DLL = 96.

12.5.14.1.2

Example 2: UART_PCLK = 12.0 MHz, BR = 115200
According to the provided algorithm DLest = PCLK/(16 x BR) = 12 MHz / (16 x 115200) =
6.51. This DLest is not an integer number and the next step is to estimate the FR
parameter. Using an initial estimate of FRest = 1.5 a new DLest = 4 is calculated and FRest
is recalculated as FRest = 1.628. Since FRest = 1.628 is within the specified range of 1.1
and 1.9, DIVADDVAL and MULVAL values can be obtained from the attached look-up
table.
The closest value for FRest = 1.628 in the look-up Table 248 is FR = 1.625. It is
equivalent to DIVADDVAL = 5 and MULVAL = 8.
Based on these findings, the suggested USART setup would be: DLM = 0, DLL = 4,
DIVADDVAL = 5, and MULVAL = 8. According to Equation 3, the USART’s baud rate is
115384. This rate has a relative error of 0.16% from the originally specified 115200.

12.5.15 USART Oversampling Register
In most applications, the USART samples received data 16 times in each nominal bit time,
and sends bits that are 16 input clocks wide. This register allows software to control the
ratio between the input clock and bit clock. This is required for smart card mode, and
provides an alternative to fractional division for other modes.

Example: For a baud rate of 3.25 Mbps with a 24 MHz USART clock frequency, the ideal
oversampling ratio is 24/3.25 or 7.3846. Setting OSINT to 0110 for 7 clocks/bit and
OSFrac to 011 for 0.375 clocks/bit, results in an oversampling ratio of 7.375.
In Smart card mode, OSInt is extended by FDINT. This extends the possible oversampling
to 2048, as required to support ISO 7816-3. Note that this value can be exceeded when
D<0, but this is not supported by the USART. When Smart card mode is enabled, the
initial value of OSINT and FDINT should be programmed as “00101110011” (372 minus
one).

12.5.16 USART Transmit Enable Register
In addition to being equipped with full hardware flow control (auto-cts and auto-rts
mechanisms described above), TER enables implementation of software flow control.
When TxEn = 1, the USART transmitter will keep sending data as long as they are
available. As soon as TxEn becomes 0, USART transmission will stop.
Although Table 250 describes how to use TxEn bit in order to achieve hardware flow
control, it is strongly suggested to let the USART hardware implemented auto flow control
features take care of this and limit the scope of TxEn to software flow control.
Table 250 describes how to use TXEn bit in order to achieve software flow control.

When this bit is 1, as it is after a Reset, data written to the THR 1
is output on the TXD pin as soon as any preceding data has
been sent. If this bit cleared to 0 while a character is being sent,
the transmission of that character is completed, but no further
characters are sent until this bit is set again. In other words, a 0
in this bit blocks the transfer of characters from the THR or TX
FIFO into the transmit shift register. Software can clear this bit
when it detects that the a hardware-handshaking TX-permit
signal (CTS) has gone false, or with software handshaking,
when it receives an XOFF character (DC3). Software can set
this bit again when it detects that the TX-permit signal has gone
true, or when it receives an XON (DC1) character.

12.5.17 UART Half-duplex enable register
Remark: The HDEN register should be disabled when in smart card mode or IrDA mode
(smart card and IrDA by default run in half-duplex mode).
After reset the USART will be in full-duplex mode, meaning that both TX and RX work
independently. After setting the HDEN bit, the USART will be in half-duplex mode. In this
mode, the USART ensures that the receiver is locked when idle, or will enter a locked
state after having received a complete ongoing character reception. Line conflicts must be
handled in software. The behavior of the USART is unpredictable when data is presented
for reception while data is being transmitted.
For this reason, the value of the HDEN register should not be modified while sending or
receiving data, or data may be lost or corrupted.

After reset, synchronous mode is disabled. Synchronous mode is enabled by setting the
SYNC bit. When SYNC is 1, the USART operates as follows:
1. The CSRC bit controls whether the USART sends (master mode) or receives (slave
mode) a serial bit clock on the SCLK pin.
2. When CSRC is 1 selecting master mode, the CSCEN bit selects whether the USART
produces clocks on SCLK continuously (CSCEN=1) or only when transmit data is
being sent on TxD (CSCEN=0).
3. The SSDIS bit controls whether start and stop bits are used. When SSDIS is 0, the
USART sends and samples for start and stop bits as in other modes. When SSDIS is
1, the USART neither sends nor samples for start or stop bits, and each falling edge
on SCLK samples a data bit on RxD into the receive shift register, as well as shifting
the transmit shift register.
The rest of this section provides further details of operation when SYNC is 1.
Data changes on TxD from falling edges on SCLK. When SSDIS is 0, the FES bit controls
whether the USART samples serial data on RxD on rising edges or falling edges on
SCLK. When SSDIS is 1, the USART ignores FES and always samples RxD on falling
edges on SCLK.
The combination SYNC=1, CSRC=1, CSCEN=1, and SSDIS=1 is a difficult operating
mode, because SCLK applies to both directions of data flow and there is no defined
mechanism to signal the receivers when valid data is present on TxD or RxD.
Lacking such a mechanism, SSDIS=1 can be used with CSCEN=0 or CSRC=0 in a mode
similar to the SPI protocol, in which characters are (at least conceptually) “exchanged”
between the USART and remote device for each set of 8 clock cycles on SCLK. Such
operation can be called full-duplex, but the same hardware mode can be used in a
half-duplex way under control of a higher-layer protocol, in which the source of SCLK
toggles it in groups of N cycles whenever data is to be sent in either direction. (N being the
number of bits/character.)
When the LPC11U3x/2x/1x USART is the clock source (CSRC=1), such half-duplex
operation can lead to the rather artificial-seeming requirement of writing a dummy
character to the Transmitter Holding Register in order to generate 8 clocks so that a
character can be received. The CCCLR bit provides a more natural way of programming
half-duplex reception. When the higher-layer protocol dictates that the LPC11U3x/2x/1x
USART should receive a character, software should write the SYNCCTRL register with

CSCEN=1 and CCCLR=1. After the USART has sent N clock cycles and thus received a
character, it clears the CSCEN bit. If more characters need to be received thereafter,
software can repeat setting CSCEN and CCCLR.
Aside from such half-duplex operation, the primary use of CSCEN=1 is with SSDIS=0, so
that start bits indicate the transmission of each character in each direction.

12.6 Functional description
12.6.1 RS-485/EIA-485 modes of operation
The RS-485/EIA-485 feature allows the USART to be configured as an addressable slave.
The addressable slave is one of multiple slaves controlled by a single master.
The USART master transmitter will identify an address character by setting the parity (9th)
bit to ‘1’. For data characters, the parity bit is set to ‘0’.
Each USART slave receiver can be assigned a unique address. The slave can be
programmed to either manually or automatically reject data following an address which is
not theirs.
RS-485/EIA-485 Normal Multidrop Mode
Setting the RS485CTRL bit 0 enables this mode. In this mode, an address is detected
when a received byte causes the USART to set the parity error and generate an interrupt.
If the receiver is disabled (RS485CTRL bit 1 = ‘1’), any received data bytes will be ignored
and will not be stored in the RXFIFO. When an address byte is detected (parity bit = ‘1’) it
will be placed into the RXFIFO and an Rx Data Ready Interrupt will be generated. The
processor can then read the address byte and decide whether or not to enable the
receiver to accept the following data.
While the receiver is enabled (RS485CTRL bit 1 =’0’), all received bytes will be accepted
and stored in the RXFIFO regardless of whether they are data or address. When an
address character is received a parity error interrupt will be generated and the processor
can decide whether or not to disable the receiver.
RS-485/EIA-485 Auto Address Detection (AAD) mode
When both RS485CTRL register bits 0 (9-bit mode enable) and 2 (AAD mode enable) are
set, the USART is in auto address detect mode.
In this mode, the receiver will compare any address byte received (parity = ‘1’) to the 8-bit
value programmed into the RS485ADRMATCH register.
If the receiver is disabled (RS485CTRL bit 1 = ‘1’), any received byte will be discarded if it
is either a data byte OR an address byte which fails to match the RS485ADRMATCH
value.
When a matching address character is detected it will be pushed onto the RXFIFO along
with the parity bit, and the receiver will be automatically enabled (RS485CTRL bit 1 will be
cleared by hardware). The receiver will also generate an Rx Data Ready Interrupt.

Chapter 12: LPC11U3x/2x/1x USART

While the receiver is enabled (RS485CTRL bit 1 = ‘0’), all bytes received will be accepted
and stored in the RXFIFO until an address byte which does not match the
RS485ADRMATCH value is received. When this occurs, the receiver will be automatically
disabled in hardware (RS485CTRL bit 1 will be set), The received non-matching address
character will not be stored in the RXFIFO.
RS-485/EIA-485 Auto Direction Control
RS485/EIA-485 mode includes the option of allowing the transmitter to automatically
control the state of the DIR pin as a direction control output signal.
Setting RS485CTRL bit 4 = ‘1’ enables this feature.
Keep RS485CTRL bit 3 zero so that direction control, if enabled, will use the RTS pin.
When Auto Direction Control is enabled, the selected pin will be asserted (driven LOW)
when the CPU writes data into the TXFIFO. The pin will be de-asserted (driven HIGH)
once the last bit of data has been transmitted. See bits 4 and 5 in the RS485CTRL
register.
The RS485CTRL bit 4 takes precedence over all other mechanisms controlling the
direction control pin with the exception of loopback mode.
RS485/EIA-485 driver delay time
The driver delay time is the delay between the last stop bit leaving the TXFIFO and the
de-assertion of RTS. This delay time can be programmed in the 8-bit RS485DLY register.
The delay time is in periods of the baud clock. Any delay time from 0 to 255 bit times may
be used.
RS485/EIA-485 output inversion
The polarity of the direction control signal on the RTS (or DTR) pins can be reversed by
programming bit 5 in the RS485CTRL register. When this bit is set, the direction control
pin will be driven to logic 1 when the transmitter has data waiting to be sent. The direction
control pin will be driven to logic 0 after the last bit of data has been transmitted.

Fig 29. Typical smart card application

When the SCIEN bit in the SCICTRL register (Table 252) is set as described, the USART
provides bidirectional serial data on the open-drain TXD pin. No RXD pin is used when
SCIEN is 1. The USART SCLK pin will output synchronously with the data at the data bit
rate. Software must use timers to implement character and block waiting times (no
hardware support via trigger signals is provided on the LPC11U3x/2x/1x). GPIO pins can
be used to control the smart card reset and power pins. Any power supplied to the card
must be externally switched as card power supply requirements often exceed source
currents possible on the LPC11U3x/2x/1x. As the specific application may accommodate
any of the available ISO 7816 class A, B, or C power requirements, be aware of the logic
level tolerances and requirements when communicating or powering cards that use
different power rails than the LPC11U3x/2x/1x.

12.6.2.1 Smart card set-up procedure
A T = 0 protocol transfer consists of 8-bits of data, an even parity bit, and two guard bits
that allow for the receiver of the particular transfer to flag parity errors through the NACK
response (see Figure 30). Extra guard bits may be added according to card requirements.
If no NACK is sent (provided the interface accepts them in SCICTRL), the next byte may
be transmitted immediately after the last guard bit. If the NACK is sent, the transmitter will
retry sending the byte until successfully received or until the SCICTRL retry limit has been
met.

• Program the LCR (Section 12.5.7) for 8-bit characters, parity enabled, even parity.
• Program the GPIO signals associated with the smart card so that (in this order):
a. Reset is low.
b. VCC is provided to the card (GPIO pins do not have the required 200 mA drive).
c. VPP (if provided to the card) is at “idle” state.

• Program SCICTRL (Section 12.5.18) to enable the smart card feature with the desired

• Set up one or more timer(s) to provide timing as needed for ISO 7816 startup.
• Program SYSAHBCLKCTRL (Table 24) to enable the USART clock.
Thereafter, software should monitor card insertion, handle activation, wait for answer to
reset as described in ISO7816-3.

12.7 Architecture
The architecture of the USART is shown below in the block diagram.
The APB interface provides a communications link between the CPU or host and the
USART.
The USART receiver block, RX, monitors the serial input line, RXD, for valid input. The
USART RX Shift Register (RSR) accepts valid characters via RXD. After a valid character
is assembled in the RSR, it is passed to the USART RX Buffer Register FIFO to await
access by the CPU or host via the generic host interface.
The USART transmitter block, TX, accepts data written by the CPU or host and buffers the
data in the USART TX Holding Register FIFO (THR). The USART TX Shift Register (TSR)
reads the data stored in the THR and assembles the data to transmit via the serial output
pin, TXD1.
The USART Baud Rate Generator block, BRG, generates the timing enables used by the
USART TX block. The BRG clock input source is USART_PCLK. The main clock is
divided down per the divisor specified in the DLL and DLM registers. This divided down
clock is a 16x oversample clock, NBAUDOUT.
The interrupt interface contains registers IER and IIR. The interrupt interface receives
several one clock wide enables from the TX and RX blocks.
Status information from the TX and RX is stored in the LSR. Control information for the TX
and RX is stored in the LCR.

13.1 How to read this chapter
Two SSP/SPI interfaces are available on all LPC11U3x/2x/1x parts.

13.2 Basic configuration
The SSP0/1 are configured using the following registers:
1. Pins: The SSP/SPI pins must be configured in the IOCON register block.
2. Power: In the SYSAHBCLKCTRL register, set bit 11 for SSP0 and bit 18 for SSP1
(Table 24).
3. Peripheral clock: Enable the SSP0/SSP1 peripheral clocks by writing to the
SSP0/1CLKDIV registers (Table 25/Table 27).
4. Reset: Before accessing the SSP/SPI block, ensure that the SSP0/1_RST_N bits (bit
0 and bit 2) in the PRESETCTRL register (Table 8) are set to 1. This de-asserts the
reset signal to the SSP/SPI block.

13.4 General description
The SSP/SPI is a Synchronous Serial Port (SSP) controller capable of operation on a SPI,
4-wire SSI, or Microwire bus. It can interact with multiple masters and slaves on the bus.
Only a single master and a single slave can communicate on the bus during a given data
transfer. Data transfers are in principle full duplex, with frames of 4 bits to 16 bits of data
flowing from the master to the slave and from the slave to the master. In practice it is often
the case that only one of these data flows carries meaningful data.

state).

CS

Frame Sync/Slave Select. When the SSP/SPI
interface is a bus master, it drives this signal to an
active state before the start of serial data and then
releases it to an inactive state after the data has
been sent.The active state of this signal can be
high or low depending upon the selected bus and
mode. When the SSP/SPI interface is a bus slave,
this signal qualifies the presence of data from the
Master according to the protocol in use.
When there is just one bus master and one bus
slave, the Frame Sync or Slave Select signal from
the Master can be connected directly to the slave’s
corresponding input. When there is more than one
slave on the bus, further qualification of their Frame
Select/Slave Select inputs will typically be
necessary to prevent more than one slave from
responding to a transfer.

MISO0/1 I/O

MISO DR(M) SI(M)
DX(S) SO(S)

Master In Slave Out. The MISO signal transfers
serial data from the slave to the master. When the
SSP/SPI is a slave, serial data is output on this
signal. When the SSP/SPI is a master, it clocks in
serial data from this signal. When the SSP/SPI is a
slave and is not selected by FS/SSEL, it does not
drive this signal (leaves it in high-impedance state).

MOSI0/1 I/O

MOSI DX(M) SO(M)
DR(S) SI(S)

Master Out Slave In. The MOSI signal transfers
serial data from the master to the slave. When the
SSP/SPI is a master, it outputs serial data on this
signal. When the SSP/SPI is a slave, it clocks in
serial data from this signal.

For device configured as a master in this mode, CLK and FS are forced LOW, and the
transmit data line DX is in 3-state mode whenever the SSP is idle. Once the bottom entry
of the transmit FIFO contains data, FS is pulsed HIGH for one CLK period. The value to
be transmitted is also transferred from the transmit FIFO to the serial shift register of the
transmit logic. On the next rising edge of CLK, the MSB of the 4-bit to 16-bit data frame is
shifted out on the DX pin. Likewise, the MSB of the received data is shifted onto the DR
pin by the off-chip serial slave device.
Both the SSP and the off-chip serial slave device then clock each data bit into their serial
shifter on the falling edge of each CLK. The received data is transferred from the serial
shifter to the receive FIFO on the first rising edge of CLK after the LSB has been latched.

13.7.2 SPI frame format
The SPI interface is a four-wire interface where the SSEL signal behaves as a slave
select. The main feature of the SPI format is that the inactive state and phase of the SCK
signal are programmable through the CPOL and CPHA bits within the SSPCR0 control
register.

13.7.2.1 Clock Polarity (CPOL) and Phase (CPHA) control
When the CPOL clock polarity control bit is LOW, it produces a steady state low value on
the SCK pin. If the CPOL clock polarity control bit is HIGH, a steady state high value is
placed on the CLK pin when data is not being transferred.

The CPHA control bit selects the clock edge that captures data and allows it to change
state. It has the most impact on the first bit transmitted by either allowing or not allowing a
clock transition before the first data capture edge. When the CPHA phase control bit is
LOW, data is captured on the first clock edge transition. If the CPHA clock phase control
bit is HIGH, data is captured on the second clock edge transition.

In this configuration, during idle periods:

• The CLK signal is forced LOW.
• SSEL is forced HIGH.
• The transmit MOSI/MISO pad is in high impedance.
If the SSP/SPI is enabled and there is valid data within the transmit FIFO, the start of
transmission is signified by the SSEL master signal being driven LOW. This causes slave
data to be enabled onto the MISO input line of the master. Master’s MOSI is enabled.
One half SCK period later, valid master data is transferred to the MOSI pin. Now that both
the master and slave data have been set, the SCK master clock pin goes HIGH after one
further half SCK period.
The data is captured on the rising and propagated on the falling edges of the SCK signal.

In the case of a single word transmission, after all bits of the data word have been
transferred, the SSEL line is returned to its idle HIGH state one SCK period after the last
bit has been captured.
However, in the case of continuous back-to-back transmissions, the SSEL signal must be
pulsed HIGH between each data word transfer. This is because the slave select pin
freezes the data in its serial peripheral register and does not allow it to be altered if the
CPHA bit is logic zero. Therefore the master device must raise the SSEL pin of the slave
device between each data transfer to enable the serial peripheral data write. On
completion of the continuous transfer, the SSEL pin is returned to its idle state one SCK
period after the last bit has been captured.

13.7.2.3 SPI format with CPOL=0,CPHA=1

• The transmit MOSI/MISO pad is in high impedance.
If the SSP/SPI is enabled and there is valid data within the transmit FIFO, the start of
transmission is signified by the SSEL master signal being driven LOW. Master’s MOSI pin
is enabled. After a further one half SCK period, both master and slave valid data is
enabled onto their respective transmission lines. At the same time, the SCK is enabled
with a rising edge transition.
Data is then captured on the falling edges and propagated on the rising edges of the SCK
signal.
In the case of a single word transfer, after all bits have been transferred, the SSEL line is
returned to its idle HIGH state one SCK period after the last bit has been captured.
For continuous back-to-back transfers, the SSEL pin is held LOW between successive
data words and termination is the same as that of the single word transfer.

In this configuration, during idle periods:

• The CLK signal is forced HIGH.
• SSEL is forced HIGH.
• The transmit MOSI/MISO pad is in high impedance.
If the SSP/SPI is enabled and there is valid data within the transmit FIFO, the start of
transmission is signified by the SSEL master signal being driven LOW, which causes
slave data to be immediately transferred onto the MISO line of the master. Master’s MOSI
pin is enabled.
One half period later, valid master data is transferred to the MOSI line. Now that both the
master and slave data have been set, the SCK master clock pin becomes LOW after one
further half SCK period. This means that data is captured on the falling edges and be
propagated on the rising edges of the SCK signal.
In the case of a single word transmission, after all bits of the data word are transferred, the
SSEL line is returned to its idle HIGH state one SCK period after the last bit has been
captured.
However, in the case of continuous back-to-back transmissions, the SSEL signal must be
pulsed HIGH between each data word transfer. This is because the slave select pin
freezes the data in its serial peripheral register and does not allow it to be altered if the
CPHA bit is logic zero. Therefore the master device must raise the SSEL pin of the slave
device between each data transfer to enable the serial peripheral data write. On
completion of the continuous transfer, the SSEL pin is returned to its idle state one SCK
period after the last bit has been captured.

In this configuration, during idle periods:

• The CLK signal is forced HIGH.
• SSEL is forced HIGH.
• The transmit MOSI/MISO pad is in high impedance.
If the SSP/SPI is enabled and there is valid data within the transmit FIFO, the start of
transmission is signified by the SSEL master signal being driven LOW. Master’s MOSI is
enabled. After a further one half SCK period, both master and slave data are enabled onto
their respective transmission lines. At the same time, the SCK is enabled with a falling
edge transition. Data is then captured on the rising edges and propagated on the falling
edges of the SCK signal.
After all bits have been transferred, in the case of a single word transmission, the SSEL
line is returned to its idle HIGH state one SCK period after the last bit has been captured.
For continuous back-to-back transmissions, the SSEL pins remains in its active LOW
state, until the final bit of the last word has been captured, and then returns to its idle state
as described above. In general, for continuous back-to-back transfers the SSEL pin is
held LOW between successive data words and termination is the same as that of the
single word transfer.

Fig 38. Microwire frame format (continuous transfers)

Microwire format is very similar to SPI format, except that transmission is half-duplex
instead of full-duplex, using a master-slave message passing technique. Each serial
transmission begins with an 8-bit control word that is transmitted from the SSP/SPI to the
off-chip slave device. During this transmission, no incoming data is received by the
SSP/SPI. After the message has been sent, the off-chip slave decodes it and, after
waiting one serial clock after the last bit of the 8-bit control message has been sent,
responds with the required data. The returned data is 4 to 16 bit in length, making the total
frame length anywhere from 13 to 25 bits.
In this configuration, during idle periods:

• The SK signal is forced LOW.
• CS is forced HIGH.
• The transmit data line SO is arbitrarily forced LOW.
A transmission is triggered by writing a control byte to the transmit FIFO.The falling edge
of CS causes the value contained in the bottom entry of the transmit FIFO to be
transferred to the serial shift register of the transmit logic, and the MSB of the 8-bit control
frame to be shifted out onto the SO pin. CS remains LOW for the duration of the frame
transmission. The SI pin remains tri-stated during this transmission.
The off-chip serial slave device latches each control bit into its serial shifter on the rising
edge of each SK. After the last bit is latched by the slave device, the control byte is
decoded during a one clock wait-state, and the slave responds by transmitting data back
to the SSP/SPI. Each bit is driven onto SI line on the falling edge of SK. The SSP/SPI in

turn latches each bit on the rising edge of SK. At the end of the frame, for single transfers,
the CS signal is pulled HIGH one clock period after the last bit has been latched in the
receive serial shifter, that causes the data to be transferred to the receive FIFO.
Note: The off-chip slave device can tri-state the receive line either on the falling edge of
SK after the LSB has been latched by the receive shiftier, or when the CS pin goes HIGH.
For continuous transfers, data transmission begins and ends in the same manner as a
single transfer. However, the CS line is continuously asserted (held LOW) and
transmission of data occurs back to back. The control byte of the next frame follows
directly after the LSB of the received data from the current frame. Each of the received
values is transferred from the receive shifter on the falling edge SK, after the LSB of the
frame has been latched into the SSP/SPI.

13.7.3.1 Setup and hold time requirements on CS with respect to SK in Microwire
mode
In the Microwire mode, the SSP/SPI slave samples the first bit of receive data on the
rising edge of SK after CS has gone LOW. Masters that drive a free-running SK must
ensure that the CS signal has sufficient setup and hold margins with respect to the rising
edge of SK.
Figure 39 illustrates these setup and hold time requirements. With respect to the SK rising
edge on which the first bit of receive data is to be sampled by the SSP/SPI slave, CS must
have a setup of at least two times the period of SK on which the SSP/SPI operates. With
respect to the SK rising edge previous to this edge, CS must have a hold of at least one
SK period.

User manual

14.1 How to read this chapter
The I2C-bus block is identical for all LPC11U3x/2x/1x parts.

14.2 Basic configuration
The I2C-bus interface is configured using the following registers:
1. Pins: The I2C pin functions and the I2C mode are configured in the IOCON register
block (Table 80 and Table 81).
2. Power and peripheral clock: In the SYSAHBCLKCTRL register, set bit 5 (Table 24).
3. Reset: Before accessing the I2C block, ensure that the I2C_RST_N bit (bit 1) in the
PRESETCTRL register (Table 8) is set to 1. This de-asserts the reset signal to the I2C
block.

14.3 Features
• Standard I2C-compliant bus interfaces may be configured as Master, Slave, or
Master/Slave.

• Arbitration is handled between simultaneously transmitting masters without corruption
of serial data on the bus.

• Programmable clock allows adjustment of I2C transfer rates.
• Data transfer is bidirectional between masters and slaves.
• Serial clock synchronization allows devices with different bit rates to communicate via
one serial bus.

• Serial clock synchronization is used as a handshake mechanism to suspend and
resume serial transfer.

•
•
•
•
•

Supports Fast-mode Plus.
Optional recognition of up to four distinct slave addresses.
Monitor mode allows observing all I2C-bus traffic, regardless of slave address.
I2C-bus can be used for test and diagnostic purposes.
The I2C-bus contains a standard I2C-compliant bus interface with two pins.

14.4 Applications
Interfaces to external I2C standard parts, such as serial RAMs, LCDs, tone generators,
other microcontrollers, etc.

14.5 General description
A typical I2C-bus configuration is shown in Figure 40. Depending on the state of the
direction bit (R/W), two types of data transfers are possible on the I2C-bus:

• Data transfer from a master transmitter to a slave receiver. The first byte transmitted
by the master is the slave address. Next follows a number of data bytes. The slave
returns an acknowledge bit after each received byte.

• Data transfer from a slave transmitter to a master receiver. The first byte (the slave
address) is transmitted by the master. The slave then returns an acknowledge bit.
Next follows the data bytes transmitted by the slave to the master. The master returns
an acknowledge bit after all received bytes other than the last byte. At the end of the
last received byte, a “not acknowledge” is returned. The master device generates all
of the serial clock pulses and the START and STOP conditions. A transfer is ended
with a STOP condition or with a Repeated START condition. Since a Repeated
START condition is also the beginning of the next serial transfer, the I2C bus will not
be released.
The I2C interface is byte oriented and has four operating modes: master transmitter mode,
master receiver mode, slave transmitter mode and slave receiver mode.
The I2C interface complies with the entire I2C specification, supporting the ability to turn
power off to the ARM Cortex-M0 without interfering with other devices on the same
I2C-bus.

cleared by writing 1 to the I2ENC bit in the CONCLR register. When I2EN is 0, the I2C
interface is disabled.
When I2EN is “0”, the SDA and SCL input signals are ignored, the I2C block is in the “not
addressed” slave state, and the STO bit is forced to “0”.
I2EN should not be used to temporarily release the I2C-bus since, when I2EN is reset, the
I2C-bus status is lost. The AA flag should be used instead.
STA is the START flag. Setting this bit causes the I2C interface to enter master mode and
transmit a START condition or transmit a Repeated START condition if it is already in
master mode.
When STA is 1 and the I2C interface is not already in master mode, it enters master mode,
checks the bus and generates a START condition if the bus is free. If the bus is not free, it
waits for a STOP condition (which will free the bus) and generates a START condition
after a delay of a half clock period of the internal clock generator. If the I2C interface is
already in master mode and data has been transmitted or received, it transmits a
Repeated START condition. STA may be set at any time, including when the I2C interface
is in an addressed slave mode.
STA can be cleared by writing 1 to the STAC bit in the CONCLR register. When STA is 0,
no START condition or Repeated START condition will be generated.
If STA and STO are both set, then a STOP condition is transmitted on the I2C-bus if it the
interface is in master mode, and transmits a START condition thereafter. If the I2C
interface is in slave mode, an internal STOP condition is generated, but is not transmitted
on the bus.
STO is the STOP flag. Setting this bit causes the I2C interface to transmit a STOP
condition in master mode, or recover from an error condition in slave mode. When STO is
1 in master mode, a STOP condition is transmitted on the I2C-bus. When the bus detects
the STOP condition, STO is cleared automatically.
In slave mode, setting this bit can recover from an error condition. In this case, no STOP
condition is transmitted to the bus. The hardware behaves as if a STOP condition has
been received and it switches to “not addressed” slave receiver mode. The STO flag is
cleared by hardware automatically.
SI is the I2C Interrupt Flag. This bit is set when the I2C state changes. However, entering
state F8 does not set SI since there is nothing for an interrupt service routine to do in that
case.
While SI is set, the low period of the serial clock on the SCL line is stretched, and the
serial transfer is suspended. When SCL is HIGH, it is unaffected by the state of the SI flag.
SI must be reset by software, by writing a 1 to the SIC bit in the CONCLR register.

14.7.5.1 Selecting the appropriate I2C data rate and duty cycle
Software must set values for the registers SCLH and SCLL to select the appropriate data
rate and duty cycle. SCLH defines the number of I2C_PCLK cycles for the SCL HIGH
time, SCLL defines the number of I2C_PCLK cycles for the SCL low time. The frequency
is determined by the following formula (I2C_PCLK is the frequency of the peripheral I2C
clock):
I2CPCLK
I 2 C bitfrequency = -----------------------------------SCLH + SCLL

(4)

The values for SCLL and SCLH must ensure that the data rate is in the appropriate I2C
data rate range. Each register value must be greater than or equal to 4. Table 277 gives
some examples of I2C-bus rates based on I2C_PCLK frequency and SCLL and SCLH
values.

SCLL and SCLH values should not necessarily be the same. Software can set different
duty cycles on SCL by setting these two registers. For example, the I2C-bus specification
defines the SCL low time and high time at different values for a Fast-mode and Fast-mode
Plus I2C.

14.7.6 I2C Control Clear register (CONCLR)
The CONCLR register control clearing of bits in the CON register that controls operation
of the I2C interface. Writing a one to a bit of this register causes the corresponding bit in
the I2C control register to be cleared. Writing a zero has no effect.

When this bit is set, the I2C module may exercise the same

This means that, acting as a slave peripheral, the I2C

When this bit is set to ‘1’ and the I2C is in monitor mode, an

Reserved. The value read from reserved bits is not defined.

When the ENA_SCL bit is cleared and the I2C no longer has the ability to stall the bus, interrupt response
time becomes important. To give the part more time to respond to an I2C interrupt under these conditions, a
DATA _BUFFER register is used (Section 14.7.9) to hold received data for a full 9-bit word transmission
time.

Remark: The ENA_SCL and MATCH_ALL bits have no effect if the MM_ENA is ‘0’ (i.e. if
the module is NOT in monitor mode).

14.7.7.1 Interrupt in Monitor mode
All interrupts will occur as normal when the module is in monitor mode. This means that
the first interrupt will occur when an address-match is detected (any address received if
the MATCH_ALL bit is set, otherwise an address matching one of the four address
registers).
Subsequent to an address-match detection, interrupts will be generated after each data
byte is received for a slave-write transfer, or after each byte that the module “thinks” it has
transmitted for a slave-read transfer. In this second case, the data register will actually
contain data transmitted by some other slave on the bus which was actually addressed by
the master.

Following all of these interrupts, the processor may read the data register to see what was
actually transmitted on the bus.

14.7.7.2 Loss of arbitration in Monitor mode
In monitor mode, the I2C module will not be able to respond to a request for information by
the bus master or issue an ACK). Some other slave on the bus will respond instead. This
will most probably result in a lost-arbitration state as far as our module is concerned.
Software should be aware of the fact that the module is in monitor mode and should not
respond to any loss of arbitration state that is detected. In addition, hardware may be
designed into the module to block some/all loss of arbitration states from occurring if those
state would either prevent a desired interrupt from occurring or cause an unwanted
interrupt to occur. Whether any such hardware will be added is still to be determined.

14.7.8 I2C Slave Address registers (ADR[1, 2, 3])
These registers are readable and writable and are only used when an I2C interface is set
to slave mode. In master mode, this register has no effect. The LSB of the ADR register is
the General Call bit. When this bit is set, the General Call address (0x00) is recognized.
If these registers contain 0x00, the I2C will not acknowledge any address on the bus. All
four registers will be cleared to this disabled state on reset (also see Table 274).

14.7.9 I2C Data buffer register (DATA_BUFFER)
In monitor mode, the I2C module may lose the ability to stretch the clock (stall the bus) if
the ENA_SCL bit is not set. This means that the processor will have a limited amount of
time to read the contents of the data received on the bus. If the processor reads the DAT
shift register, as it ordinarily would, it could have only one bit-time to respond to the
interrupt before the received data is overwritten by new data.
To give the processor more time to respond, a new 8-bit, read-only DATA_BUFFER
register will be added. The contents of the 8 MSBs of the DAT shift register will be
transferred to the DATA_BUFFER automatically after every nine bits (8 bits of data plus
ACK or NACK) has been received on the bus. This means that the processor will have
nine bit transmission times to respond to the interrupt and read the data before it is
overwritten.
The processor will still have the ability to read the DAT register directly, as usual, and the
behavior of DAT will not be altered in any way.
Although the DATA_BUFFER register is primarily intended for use in monitor mode with
the ENA_SCL bit = ‘0’, it will be available for reading at any time under any mode of
operation.

Chapter 14: LPC11U3x/2x/1x I2C-bus controller

14.8.2 Address Registers, ADR0 to ADR3
These registers may be loaded with the 7-bit slave address (7 most significant bits) to
which the I2C block will respond when programmed as a slave transmitter or receiver. The
LSB (GC) is used to enable General Call address (0x00) recognition. When multiple slave
addresses are enabled, the actual address received may be read from the DAT register at
the state where the own slave address has been received.

14.8.3 Address mask registers, MASK0 to MASK3
The four mask registers each contain seven active bits (7:1). Any bit in these registers
which is set to ‘1’ will cause an automatic compare on the corresponding bit of the
received address when it is compared to the ADRn register associated with that mask
register. In other words, bits in an ADRn register which are masked are not taken into
account in determining an address match.
When an address-match interrupt occurs, the processor will have to read the data register
(DAT) to determine what the received address was that actually caused the match.

14.8.4 Comparator
The comparator compares the received 7-bit slave address with its own slave address (7
most significant bits in ADR). It also compares the first received 8-bit byte with the General
Call address (0x00). If an equality is found, the appropriate status bits are set and an
interrupt is requested.

14.8.5 Shift register, DAT
This 8-bit register contains a byte of serial data to be transmitted or a byte which has just
been received. Data in DAT is always shifted from right to left; the first bit to be transmitted
is the MSB (bit 7) and, after a byte has been received, the first bit of received data is
located at the MSB of DAT. While data is being shifted out, data on the bus is
simultaneously being shifted in; DAT always contains the last byte present on the bus.
Thus, in the event of lost arbitration, the transition from master transmitter to slave
receiver is made with the correct data in DAT.

14.8.6 Arbitration and synchronization logic
In the master transmitter mode, the arbitration logic checks that every transmitted logic 1
actually appears as a logic 1 on the I2C-bus. If another device on the bus overrules a logic
1 and pulls the SDA line low, arbitration is lost, and the I2C block immediately changes
from master transmitter to slave receiver. The I2C block will continue to output clock
pulses (on SCL) until transmission of the current serial byte is complete.
Arbitration may also be lost in the master receiver mode. Loss of arbitration in this mode
can only occur while the I2C block is returning a “not acknowledge: (logic 1) to the bus.
Arbitration is lost when another device on the bus pulls this signal low. Since this can
occur only at the end of a serial byte, the I2C block generates no further clock pulses.
Figure 42 shows the arbitration procedure.

The synchronization logic will synchronize the serial clock generator with the clock pulses
on the SCL line from another device. If two or more master devices generate clock pulses,
the “mark” duration is determined by the device that generates the shortest “marks,” and
the “space” duration is determined by the device that generates the longest “spaces”.

released SCL. The I2C clock generator is forced to wait until SCL goes HIGH. The other device
effectively determines the (longer) LOW period.
(3) The SCL line is released , and the clock generator begins timing the HIGH time.

Fig 43. Serial clock synchronization

A slave may stretch the space duration to slow down the bus master. The space duration
may also be stretched for handshaking purposes. This can be done after each bit or after
a complete byte transfer. the I2C block will stretch the SCL space duration after a byte has
been transmitted or received and the acknowledge bit has been transferred. The serial
interrupt flag (SI) is set, and the stretching continues until the serial interrupt flag is
cleared.

14.8.7 Serial clock generator
This programmable clock pulse generator provides the SCL clock pulses when the I2C
block is in the master transmitter or master receiver mode. It is switched off when the I2C
block is in slave mode. The I2C output clock frequency and duty cycle is programmable

via the I2C Clock Control Registers. See the description of the I2CSCLL and I2CSCLH
registers for details. The output clock pulses have a duty cycle as programmed unless the
bus is synchronizing with other SCL clock sources as described above.

14.8.8 Timing and control
The timing and control logic generates the timing and control signals for serial byte
handling. This logic block provides the shift pulses for DAT, enables the comparator,
generates and detects START and STOP conditions, receives and transmits acknowledge
bits, controls the master and slave modes, contains interrupt request logic, and monitors
the I2C-bus status.

14.8.9 Control register, CONSET and CONCLR
The I2C control register contains bits used to control the following I2C block functions: start
and restart of a serial transfer, termination of a serial transfer, bit rate, address recognition,
and acknowledgment.
The contents of the I2C control register may be read as CONSET. Writing to CONSET will
set bits in the I2C control register that correspond to ones in the value written. Conversely,
writing to CONCLR will clear bits in the I2C control register that correspond to ones in the
value written.

14.8.10 Status decoder and status register
The status decoder takes all of the internal status bits and compresses them into a 5-bit
code. This code is unique for each I2C-bus status. The 5-bit code may be used to
generate vector addresses for fast processing of the various service routines. Each
service routine processes a particular bus status. There are 26 possible bus states if all
four modes of the I2C block are used. The 5-bit status code is latched into the five most
significant bits of the status register when the serial interrupt flag is set (by hardware) and
remains stable until the interrupt flag is cleared by software. The three least significant bits
of the status register are always zero. If the status code is used as a vector to service
routines, then the routines are displaced by eight address locations. Eight bytes of code is
sufficient for most of the service routines (see the software example in this section).

14.9 I2C operating modes
In a given application, the I2C block may operate as a master, a slave, or both. In the slave
mode, the I2C hardware looks for any one of its four slave addresses and the General Call
address. If one of these addresses is detected, an interrupt is requested. If the processor
wishes to become the bus master, the hardware waits until the bus is free before the
master mode is entered so that a possible slave operation is not interrupted. If bus
arbitration is lost in the master mode, the I2C block switches to the slave mode
immediately and can detect its own slave address in the same serial transfer.

14.9.1 Master Transmitter mode
In this mode data is transmitted from master to slave. Before the master transmitter mode
can be entered, the CONSET register must be initialized as shown in Table 283. I2EN
must be set to 1 to enable the I2C function. If the AA bit is 0, the I2C interface will not
acknowledge any address when another device is master of the bus, so it can not enter

The first byte transmitted contains the slave address of the receiving device (7 bits) and
the data direction bit. In this mode the data direction bit (R/W) should be 0 which means
Write. The first byte transmitted contains the slave address and Write bit. Data is
transmitted 8 bits at a time. After each byte is transmitted, an acknowledge bit is received.
START and STOP conditions are output to indicate the beginning and the end of a serial
transfer.
The I2C interface will enter master transmitter mode when software sets the STA bit. The
I2C logic will send the START condition as soon as the bus is free. After the START
condition is transmitted, the SI bit is set, and the status code in the STAT register is 0x08.
This status code is used to vector to a state service routine which will load the slave
address and Write bit to the DAT register, and then clear the SI bit. SI is cleared by writing
a 1 to the SIC bit in the CONCLR register.
When the slave address and R/W bit have been transmitted and an acknowledgment bit
has been received, the SI bit is set again, and the possible status codes now are 0x18,
0x20, or 0x38 for the master mode, or 0x68, 0x78, or 0xB0 if the slave mode was enabled

interrupt is requested. When the microcontrollers wishes to become the bus master, the
hardware waits until the bus is free before the master mode is entered so that a possible

In Figure 49 to Figure 53, circles are used to indicate when the serial interrupt flag is set.
The numbers in the circles show the status code held in the STAT register. At these points,
a service routine must be executed to continue or complete the serial transfer. These
service routines are not critical since the serial transfer is suspended until the serial
interrupt flag is cleared by software.
When a serial interrupt routine is entered, the status code in STAT is used to branch to the
appropriate service routine. For each status code, the required software action and details
of the following serial transfer are given in tables from Table 287 to Table 293.

14.10.1 Master Transmitter mode
In the master transmitter mode, a number of data bytes are transmitted to a slave receiver
(see Figure 49). Before the master transmitter mode can be entered, I2CON must be
initialized as follows:

The I2C rate must also be configured in the SCLL and SCLH registers. I2EN must be set
to logic 1 to enable the I2C block. If the AA bit is reset, the I2C block will not acknowledge
its own slave address or the General Call address in the event of another device
becoming master of the bus. In other words, if AA is reset, the I2C interface cannot enter
slave mode. STA, STO, and SI must be reset.

The master transmitter mode may now be entered by setting the STA bit. The I2C logic will
now test the I2C-bus and generate a START condition as soon as the bus becomes free.
When a START condition is transmitted, the serial interrupt flag (SI) is set, and the status
code in the status register (STAT) will be 0x08. This status code is used by the interrupt
service routine to enter the appropriate state service routine that loads DAT with the slave
address and the data direction bit (SLA+W). The SI bit in CON must then be reset before
the serial transfer can continue.
When the slave address and the direction bit have been transmitted and an
acknowledgment bit has been received, the serial interrupt flag (SI) is set again, and a
number of status codes in STAT are possible. There are 0x18, 0x20, or 0x38 for the
master mode and also 0x68, 0x78, or 0xB0 if the slave mode was enabled (AA = logic 1).
The appropriate action to be taken for each of these status codes is detailed in Table 287.
After a Repeated START condition (state 0x10). The I2C block may switch to the master
receiver mode by loading DAT with SLA+R).

14.10.2 Master Receiver mode
In the master receiver mode, a number of data bytes are received from a slave transmitter
(see Figure 50). The transfer is initialized as in the master transmitter mode. When the
START condition has been transmitted, the interrupt service routine must load DAT with
the 7-bit slave address and the data direction bit (SLA+R). The SI bit in CON must then be
cleared before the serial transfer can continue.
When the slave address and the data direction bit have been transmitted and an
acknowledgment bit has been received, the serial interrupt flag (SI) is set again, and a
number of status codes in STAT are possible. These are 0x40, 0x48, or 0x38 for the
master mode and also 0x68, 0x78, or 0xB0 if the slave mode was enabled (AA = 1). The
appropriate action to be taken for each of these status codes is detailed in Table 288. After
a Repeated START condition (state 0x10), the I2C block may switch to the master
transmitter mode by loading DAT with SLA+W.

(0x00); otherwise it ignores the General Call address.

The I2C-bus rate settings do not affect the I2C block in the slave mode. I2EN must be set
to logic 1 to enable the I2C block. The AA bit must be set to enable the I2C block to
acknowledge its own slave address or the General Call address. STA, STO, and SI must
be reset.
When ADR and CON have been initialized, the I2C block waits until it is addressed by its
own slave address followed by the data direction bit which must be “0” (W) for the I2C
block to operate in the slave receiver mode. After its own slave address and the W bit
have been received, the serial interrupt flag (SI) is set and a valid status code can be read
from STAT. This status code is used to vector to a state service routine. The appropriate
action to be taken for each of these status codes is detailed in Table 291. The slave
receiver mode may also be entered if arbitration is lost while the I2C block is in the master
mode (see status 0x68 and 0x78).
If the AA bit is reset during a transfer, the I2C block will return a not acknowledge (logic 1)
to SDA after the next received data byte. While AA is reset, the I2C block does not
respond to its own slave address or a General Call address. However, the I2C-bus is still
monitored and address recognition may be resumed at any time by setting AA. This
means that the AA bit may be used to temporarily isolate the I2C block from the I2C-bus.

14.10.4 Slave Transmitter mode
In the slave transmitter mode, a number of data bytes are transmitted to a master receiver
(see Figure 52). Data transfer is initialized as in the slave receiver mode. When ADR and
CON have been initialized, the I2C block waits until it is addressed by its own slave
address followed by the data direction bit which must be “1” (R) for the I2C block to
operate in the slave transmitter mode. After its own slave address and the R bit have been
received, the serial interrupt flag (SI) is set and a valid status code can be read from STAT.
This status code is used to vector to a state service routine, and the appropriate action to
be taken for each of these status codes is detailed in Table 292. The slave transmitter
mode may also be entered if arbitration is lost while the I2C block is in the master mode
(see state 0xB0).
If the AA bit is reset during a transfer, the I2C block will transmit the last byte of the transfer
and enter state 0xC0 or 0xC8. The I2C block is switched to the not addressed slave mode
and will ignore the master receiver if it continues the transfer. Thus the master receiver
receives all 1s as serial data. While AA is reset, the I2C block does not respond to its own
slave address or a General Call address. However, the I2C-bus is still monitored, and
address recognition may be resumed at any time by setting AA. This means that the AA
bit may be used to temporarily isolate the I2C block from the I2C-bus.

14.10.5 Miscellaneous states
There are two STAT codes that do not correspond to a defined I2C hardware state (see
Table 293). These are discussed below.

14.10.5.1 STAT = 0xF8
This status code indicates that no relevant information is available because the serial
interrupt flag, SI, is not yet set. This occurs between other states and when the I2C block
is not involved in a serial transfer.

14.10.5.2 STAT = 0x00
This status code indicates that a bus error has occurred during an I2C serial transfer. A
bus error is caused when a START or STOP condition occurs at an illegal position in the
format frame. Examples of such illegal positions are during the serial transfer of an
address byte, a data byte, or an acknowledge bit. A bus error may also be caused when
external interference disturbs the internal I2C block signals. When a bus error occurs, SI is
set. To recover from a bus error, the STO flag must be set and SI must be cleared. This

Only the internal hardware is affected in

cases, the bus is released and the I2C

14.10.6 Some special cases
The I2C hardware has facilities to handle the following special cases that may occur
during a serial transfer:

•
•
•
•
•

Simultaneous Repeated START conditions from two masters
Data transfer after loss of arbitration
Forced access to the I2C-bus
I2C-bus obstructed by a LOW level on SCL or SDA
Bus error

14.10.6.1 Simultaneous Repeated START conditions from two masters
A Repeated START condition may be generated in the master transmitter or master
receiver modes. A special case occurs if another master simultaneously generates a
Repeated START condition (see Figure 53). Until this occurs, arbitration is not lost by
either master since they were both transmitting the same data.
If the I2C hardware detects a Repeated START condition on the I2C-bus before generating
a Repeated START condition itself, it will release the bus, and no interrupt request is
generated. If another master frees the bus by generating a STOP condition, the I2C block
will transmit a normal START condition (state 0x08), and a retry of the total serial data
transfer can commence.

14.10.6.2 Data transfer after loss of arbitration
Arbitration may be lost in the master transmitter and master receiver modes (see
Figure 42). Loss of arbitration is indicated by the following states in STAT; 0x38, 0x68,
0x78, and 0xB0 (see Figure 49 and Figure 50).
If the STA flag in CON is set by the routines which service these states, then, if the bus is
free again, a START condition (state 0x08) is transmitted without intervention by the CPU,
and a retry of the total serial transfer can commence.

14.10.6.3 Forced access to the I2C-bus
In some applications, it may be possible for an uncontrolled source to cause a bus
hang-up. In such situations, the problem may be caused by interference, temporary
interruption of the bus or a temporary short-circuit between SDA and SCL.
If an uncontrolled source generates a superfluous START or masks a STOP condition,
then the I2C-bus stays busy indefinitely. If the STA flag is set and bus access is not
obtained within a reasonable amount of time, then a forced access to the I2C-bus is
possible. This is achieved by setting the STO flag while the STA flag is still set. No STOP
condition is transmitted. The I2C hardware behaves as if a STOP condition was received
and is able to transmit a START condition. The STO flag is cleared by hardware (see
Figure 54).

14.10.6.4 I2C-bus obstructed by a LOW level on SCL or SDA
An I2C-bus hang-up can occur if either the SDA or SCL line is held LOW by any device on
the bus. If the SCL line is obstructed (pulled LOW) by a device on the bus, no further serial
transfer is possible, and the problem must be resolved by the device that is pulling the
SCL bus line LOW.
Typically, the SDA line may be obstructed by another device on the bus that has become
out of synchronization with the current bus master by either missing a clock, or by sensing
a noise pulse as a clock. In this case, the problem can be solved by transmitting additional
clock pulses on the SCL line (see Figure 55). The I2C interface does not include a
dedicated time-out timer to detect an obstructed bus, but this can be implemented using
another timer in the system. When detected, software can force clocks (up to 9 may be
required) on SCL until SDA is released by the offending device. At that point, the slave
may still be out of synchronization, so a START should be generated to insure that all I2C
peripherals are synchronized.

14.10.6.5 Bus error
A bus error occurs when a START or STOP condition is detected at an illegal position in
the format frame. Examples of illegal positions are during the serial transfer of an address
byte, a data bit, or an acknowledge bit.
The I2C hardware only reacts to a bus error when it is involved in a serial transfer either as
a master or an addressed slave. When a bus error is detected, the I2C block immediately
switches to the not addressed slave mode, releases the SDA and SCL lines, sets the
interrupt flag, and loads the status register with 0x00. This status code may be used to
vector to a state service routine which either attempts the aborted serial transfer again or
simply recovers from the error condition as shown in Table 293.

14.10.7 I2C state service routines
This section provides examples of operations that must be performed by various I2C state
service routines. This includes:

• Initialization of the I2C block after a Reset.
• I2C Interrupt Service
• The 26 state service routines providing support for all four I2C operating modes.

Chapter 14: LPC11U3x/2x/1x I2C-bus controller

14.10.8 Initialization
In the initialization example, the I2C block is enabled for both master and slave modes.
For each mode, a buffer is used for transmission and reception. The initialization routine
performs the following functions:

• ADR is loaded with the part’s own slave address and the General Call bit (GC)
• The I2C interrupt enable and interrupt priority bits are set
• The slave mode is enabled by simultaneously setting the I2EN and AA bits in CON
and the serial clock frequency (for master modes) is defined by is defined by loading
the SCLH and SCLL registers. The master routines must be started in the main program.
The I2C hardware now begins checking the I2C-bus for its own slave address and General
Call. If the General Call or the own slave address is detected, an interrupt is requested
and STAT is loaded with the appropriate state information.

14.10.9 I2C interrupt service
When the I2C interrupt is entered, STAT contains a status code which identifies one of the
26 state services to be executed.

14.10.10 The state service routines
Each state routine is part of the I2C interrupt routine and handles one of the 26 states.

14.10.11 Adapting state services to an application
The state service examples show the typical actions that must be performed in response
to the 26 I2C state codes. If one or more of the four I2C operating modes are not used, the
associated state services can be omitted, as long as care is taken that the those states
can never occur.
In an application, it may be desirable to implement some kind of time-out during I2C
operations, in order to trap an inoperative bus or a lost service routine.

14.11 Software example
14.11.1 Initialization routine
Example to initialize I2C Interface as a Slave and/or Master.
1. Load ADR with own Slave Address, enable General Call recognition if needed.

Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014

User manual

15.1 How to read this chapter
CT16B0/1 are available on all LPC11U3x/2x/1x parts. The number of capture inputs
depends on package size. See Chapter 8.

15.2 Basic configuration
The CT16B0/1 counter/timers are configured through the following registers:

• Pins: The CT16B0/1 pins must be configured in the IOCON register block.
• Power: In the SYSAHBCLKCTRL register, set bit 7 and 8 in Table 24.
• The peripheral clock is determined by the system clock (see Table 23).
Remark: The register offsets and bit offsets for capture channel 1 are different on timers
CT16B0 and CT16B1. The affected registers are:

Section 15.7.1 “Interrupt Register”
Section 15.7.8 “Capture Control Register”
Section 15.7.9 “Capture Registers”
Section 15.7.11 “Count Control Register”

15.3 Features
• Two 16-bit counter/timers with a programmable 16-bit prescaler.
• Counter or timer operation
• Two 16-bit capture channels that can take a snapshot of the timer value when an input
signal transitions. A capture event may also optionally generate an interrupt.

• The timer and prescaler may be configured to be cleared on a designated capture
event. This feature permits easy pulse-width measurement by clearing the timer on
the leading edge of an input pulse and capturing the timer value on the trailing edge.

• Four 16-bit match registers that allow:
– Continuous operation with optional interrupt generation on match.
– Stop timer on match with optional interrupt generation.
– Reset timer on match with optional interrupt generation.

• Two external outputs corresponding to match registers with the following capabilities:
– Set LOW on match.
– Set HIGH on match.
– Toggle on match.
– Do nothing on match.

• For each timer, up to four match registers can be configured as PWM allowing to use
up to two match outputs as single edge controlled PWM outputs.

15.5 General description
Each Counter/timer is designed to count cycles of the peripheral clock (PCLK) or an
externally supplied clock and can optionally generate interrupts or perform other actions at
specified timer values based on four match registers. Each counter/timer also includes
one capture input to trap the timer value when an input signal transitions, optionally
generating an interrupt.
In PWM mode, two match registers can be used to provide a single-edge controlled PWM
output on the match output pins. It is recommended to use the match registers that are not
pinned out to control the PWM cycle length.

15.6 Pin description
Table 294 gives a brief summary of each of the counter/timer related pins.

Input

Capture Signal:
A transition on a capture pin can be configured to load the
Capture Register with the value in the counter/timer and
optionally generate an interrupt.
The Counter/Timer block can select a capture signal as a clock
source instead of the PCLK derived clock. For more details see
Section 15.7.11.

Output

External Match Outputs of CT16B0/1:
When a match register of CT16B0/1 (MR1:0) equals the timer
counter (TC), this output can either toggle, go LOW, go HIGH, or
do nothing. The External Match Register (EMR) and the PWM
Control Register (PWMCON) control the functionality of this
output.

15.7 Register description
The 16-bit counter/timer0 contains the registers shown in Table 295 and the 16-bit
counter/timer1 contains the registers shown in Table 296. More detailed descriptions
follow.

15.7.1 Interrupt Register
The Interrupt Register consists of four bits for the match interrupts and two bits for the
capture interrupts. If an interrupt is generated then the corresponding bit in the IR will be
HIGH. Otherwise, the bit will be LOW. Writing a logic one to the corresponding IR bit will
reset the interrupt. Writing a zero has no effect.

The 16-bit Prescale Counter controls division of PCLK by some constant value before it is

of the timer and the maximum time before the timer overflows. The Prescale Counter is
incremented on every PCLK. When it reaches the value stored in the Prescale Register,
the Timer Counter is incremented, and the Prescale Counter is reset on the next PCLK.
This causes the TC to increment on every PCLK when PR = 0, every 2 PCLKs when
PR = 1, ...

with the value in the Counter/timer when the capture event occurs, and whether an
interrupt is generated by the capture event. Setting both the rising and falling bits at the
same time is a valid configuration, resulting in a capture event for both edges. In the

15.7.9 Capture Registers
Each Capture register is associated with a device pin and may be loaded with the
counter/timer value when a specified event occurs on that pin. The settings in the Capture
Control Register register determine whether the capture function is enabled, and whether
a capture event happens on the rising edge of the associated pin, the falling edge, or on
both edges.
Remark: The location of the CR1 register relative to the timer base address is different for
CT16B0 (CR1 at +0x034, Table 308) and CT16B1 (CR1 at +0x030, Table 309).

15.7.10 External Match Register
The External Match Register provides both control and status of the external match pins
CT16Bn_MAT[1:0].
If the match outputs are configured as PWM output, the function of the external match
registers is determined by the PWM rules (Section 15.7.13 “Rules for single edge
controlled PWM outputs” on page 346).

15.7.11 Count Control Register
The Count Control Register (CTCR) is used to select between Timer and Counter mode,
and in Counter mode to select the pin and edges for counting.
When Counter Mode is chosen as a mode of operation, the CAP input (selected by the
CTCR bits 3:2) is sampled on every rising edge of the PCLK clock. After comparing two
consecutive samples of this CAP input, one of the following four events is recognized:
rising edge, falling edge, either of edges or no changes in the level of the selected CAP
input. Only if the identified event occurs, and the event corresponds to the one selected by
bits 1:0 in the CTCR register, will the Timer Counter register be incremented.

Chapter 15: LPC11U3x/2x/1x 16-bit counter/timers CT16B0/1

Effective processing of the externally supplied clock to the counter has some limitations.
Since two successive rising edges of the PCLK clock are used to identify only one edge
on the CAP selected input, the frequency of the CAP input cannot exceed one half of the
PCLK clock. Consequently, the duration of the HIGH/LOW levels on the same CAP input
in this case can not be shorter than 1/PCLK.
Bits 7:4 of this register are also used to enable and configure the capture-clears-timer
feature. This feature allows for a designated edge on a particular CAP input to reset the
timer to all zeros. Using this mechanism to clear the timer on the leading edge of an input
pulse and performing a capture on the trailing edge, permits direct pulse-width
measurement using a single capture input without the need to perform a subtraction
operation in software.
Remark: The bit positions for the CAP1 channel count input select (CIS) and edge select
bits (SELCC) are different for counter/timers CT16B0 (Table 312) and CT16B1
(Table 313).

15.7.12 PWM Control register
The PWM Control Register is used to configure the match outputs as PWM outputs. Each
match output can be independently set to perform either as PWM output or as match
output whose function is controlled by the External Match Register (EMR).
For each timer, a maximum of three single edge controlled PWM outputs can be selected
on the CT16Bn_MAT[1:0] outputs. One additional match register determines the PWM
cycle length. When a match occurs in any of the other match registers, the PWM output is
set to HIGH. The timer is reset by the match register that is configured to set the PWM
cycle length. When the timer is reset to zero, all currently HIGH match outputs configured
as PWM outputs are cleared.

15.7.13 Rules for single edge controlled PWM outputs
1. All single edge controlled PWM outputs go LOW at the beginning of each PWM cycle
(timer is set to zero) unless their match value is equal to zero.
2. Each PWM output will go HIGH when its match value is reached. If no match occurs
(i.e. the match value is greater than the PWM cycle length), the PWM output remains
continuously LOW.
3. If a match value larger than the PWM cycle length is written to the match register, and
the PWM signal is HIGH already, then the PWM signal will be cleared on the next start
of the next PWM cycle.
4. If a match register contains the same value as the timer reset value (the PWM cycle
length), then the PWM output will be reset to LOW on the next clock tick. Therefore,
the PWM output will always consist of a one clock tick wide positive pulse with a
period determined by the PWM cycle length (i.e. the timer reload value).
5. If a match register is set to zero, then the PWM output will go to HIGH the first time the
timer goes back to zero and will stay HIGH continuously.
Note: When the match outputs are selected to perform as PWM outputs, the timer reset
(MRnR) and timer stop (MRnS) bits in the Match Control Register MCR must be set to
zero except for the match register setting the PWM cycle length. For this register, set the
MRnR bit to one to enable the timer reset when the timer value matches the value of the
corresponding match register.

15.8 Example timer operation
Figure 57 shows a timer configured to reset the count and generate an interrupt on match.
The prescaler is set to 2 and the match register set to 6. At the end of the timer cycle
where the match occurs, the timer count is reset. This gives a full length cycle to the
match value. The interrupt indicating that a match occurred is generated in the next clock
after the timer reached the match value.
Figure 58 shows a timer configured to stop and generate an interrupt on match. The
prescaler is again set to 2 and the match register set to 6. In the next clock after the timer
reaches the match value, the timer enable bit in TCR is cleared, and the interrupt
indicating that a match occurred is generated.

User manual

16.1 How to read this chapter
CT32B0/1 are available on all LPC11U3x/2x/1x parts. The CT32B1_CAP1 input is only
available on the TFBGA48 and LQFP64 packages. The CT32B0_CAP1 input is only
available on LQFP48, TFBGA48, and LQFP64 packages. For all other packages, the
registers controlling the CT32B1_CAP1 and CT32B0_CAP1 inputs are reserved.

16.2 Basic configuration
The CT32B0/1 counter/timers are configured through the following registers:

• Pins: The CT32B0/1 pins must be configured in the IOCON register block.
• Power: In the SYSAHBCLKCTRL register, set bit 9 and 10 in Table 24.
• The peripheral clock is determined by the system clock (see Table 23).
Remark: The register offsets and bit offsets for capture channel 1 are different on timers
CT32B0 and CT32B1. The affected registers are:

Section 16.7.8 “Capture Control Register”
Section 16.7.9 “Capture Registers”
Section 16.7.11 “Count Control Register”

16.3 Features
• Two 32-bit counter/timers with a programmable 32-bit prescaler.
• Counter or timer operation.
• Four 32-bit capture channels that can take a snapshot of the timer value when an
input signal transitions. A capture event may also optionally generate an interrupt.

• The timer and prescaler may be configured to be cleared on a designated capture
event. This feature permits easy pulse-width measurement by clearing the timer on
the leading edge of an input pulse and capturing the timer value on the trailing edge.

• Four 32-bit match registers that allow:
– Continuous operation with optional interrupt generation on match.

16.5 General description
Each Counter/timer is designed to count cycles of the peripheral clock (PCLK) or an
externally supplied clock and can optionally generate interrupts or perform other actions at
specified timer values based on four match registers. Each counter/timer also includes
one capture input to trap the timer value when an input signal transitions, optionally
generating an interrupt.
In PWM mode, three match registers can be used to provide a single-edge controlled
PWM output on the match output pins. One match register is used to control the PWM
cycle length.

16.6 Pin description
Table 315 gives a brief summary of each of the counter/timer related pins.

Input

Capture Signals:
A transition on a capture pin can be configured to load one of the
Capture Registers with the value in the Timer Counter and
optionally generate an interrupt.
The counter/timer block can select a capture signal as a clock
source instead of the PCLK derived clock. For more details see
Section 16.7.11 “Count Control Register” on page 360.

CT32B0_MAT[3:0]
CT32B1_MAT[3:0]

Output External Match Output of CT32B0/1:
When a match register MR3:0 equals the timer counter (TC), this
output can either toggle, go LOW, go HIGH, or do nothing. The
External Match Register (EMR) and the PWM Control register
(PWMCON) control the functionality of this output.

16.7 Register description
32-bit counter/timer0 contains the registers shown in Table 316 and 32-bit counter/timer1
contains the registers shown in Table 317. More detailed descriptions follow.

16.7.1 Interrupt Register
The Interrupt Register consists of four bits for the match interrupts and four bits for the
capture interrupts. If an interrupt is generated then the corresponding bit in the IR will be
HIGH. Otherwise, the bit will be LOW. Writing a logic one to the corresponding IR bit will
reset the interrupt. Writing a zero has no effect.
Remark: The bit positions for the CAP1 interrupts are different for counter/timer CT32B0
(CAP1 interrupt on bit 6, Table 318) and counter/timer CT32B1 (CAP1 interrupt on bit 5,

16.7.3 Timer Counter registers
The 32-bit Timer Counter is incremented when the Prescale Counter reaches its terminal
count. Unless it is reset before reaching its upper limit, the TC will count up through the
value 0xFFFF FFFF and then wrap back to the value 0x0000 0000. This event does not
cause an interrupt, but a Match register can be used to detect an overflow if needed.

The 32-bit Prescale Counter controls division of PCLK by some constant value before it is
applied to the Timer Counter. This allows control of the relationship between the resolution
of the timer and the maximum time before the timer overflows. The Prescale Counter is
incremented on every PCLK. When it reaches the value stored in the Prescale Register,
the Timer Counter is incremented, and the Prescale Counter is reset on the next PCLK.
This causes the TC to increment on every PCLK when PR = 0, every 2 PCLKs when
PR = 1, etc.

16.7.10 External Match Register
The External Match Register provides both control and status of the external match pins
CAP32Bn_MAT[3:0].
If the match outputs are configured as PWM output, the function of the external match
registers is determined by the PWM rules (Section 16.7.13 “Rules for single edge
controlled PWM outputs” on page 363).

16.7.11 Count Control Register
The Count Control Register (CTCR) is used to select between Timer and Counter mode,
and in Counter mode to select the pin and edges for counting.
When Counter Mode is chosen as a mode of operation, the CAP input (selected by the
CTCR bits 3:2) is sampled on every rising edge of the PCLK clock. After comparing two
consecutive samples of this CAP input, one of the following four events is recognized:
rising edge, falling edge, either of edges or no changes in the level of the selected CAP
input. Only if the identified event occurs, and the event corresponds to the one selected by
bits 1:0 in the CTCR register, will the Timer Counter register be incremented.
Effective processing of the externally supplied clock to the counter has some limitations.
Since two successive rising edges of the PCLK clock are used to identify only one edge
on the CAP selected input, the frequency of the CAP input cannot exceed one half of the
PCLK clock. Consequently, duration of the HIGH/LOWLOW levels on the same CAP input
in this case cannot be shorter than 1/PCLK.
Bits 7:4 of this register are also used to enable and configure the capture-clears-timer
feature. This feature allows for a designated edge on a particular CAP input to reset the
timer to all zeros. Using this mechanism to clear the timer on the leading edge of an input
pulse and performing a capture on the trailing edge, permits direct pulse-width
measurement using a single capture input without the need to perform a subtraction
operation in software.

output whose function is controlled by the External Match Register (EMR).
For each timer, a maximum of three single edge controlled PWM outputs can be selected
on the MATn.2:0 outputs. One additional match register determines the PWM cycle
length. When a match occurs in any of the other match registers, the PWM output is set to

16.7.13 Rules for single edge controlled PWM outputs
1. All single edge controlled PWM outputs go LOW at the beginning of each PWM cycle
(timer is set to zero) unless their match value is equal to zero.
2. Each PWM output will go HIGH when its match value is reached. If no match occurs
(i.e. the match value is greater than the PWM cycle length), the PWM output remains
continuously LOW.
3. If a match value larger than the PWM cycle length is written to the match register, and
the PWM signal is HIGH already, then the PWM signal will be cleared with the start of
the next PWM cycle.
4. If a match register contains the same value as the timer reset value (the PWM cycle
length), then the PWM output will be reset to LOW on the next clock tick after the
timer reaches the match value. Therefore, the PWM output will always consist of a
one clock tick wide positive pulse with a period determined by the PWM cycle length
(i.e. the timer reload value).
5. If a match register is set to zero, then the PWM output will go to HIGH the first time the
timer goes back to zero and will stay HIGH continuously.

16.8 Example timer operation
Figure 61 shows a timer configured to reset the count and generate an interrupt on match.
The prescaler is set to 2 and the match register set to 6. At the end of the timer cycle
where the match occurs, the timer count is reset. This gives a full length cycle to the
match value. The interrupt indicating that a match occurred is generated in the next clock
after the timer reached the match value.
Figure 62 shows a timer configured to stop and generate an interrupt on match. The
prescaler is again set to 2 and the match register set to 6. In the next clock after the timer
reaches the match value, the timer enable bit in TCR is cleared, and the interrupt
indicating that a match occurred is generated.

(WWDT)
Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014

User manual

17.1 How to read this chapter
The WWDT is identical on all LPC11U3x/2x/1x parts.

17.2 Basic configuration
The WWDT is configured through the following registers:

• Power to the register interface (WWDT PCLK clock): In the SYSAHBCLKCTRL
register, set bit 15 in Table 24.

• Enable the WWDT clock source (the watchdog oscillator or the IRC) in the
PDRUNCFG register (Table 47).

• For waking up from a WWDT interrupt, enable the watchdog interrupt for wake-up in
the STARTERP1 register (Table 44).

17.3 Features
• Internally resets chip if not reloaded during the programmable time-out period.
• Optional windowed operation requires reload to occur between a minimum and
maximum time-out period, both programmable.

• Optional warning interrupt can be generated at a programmable time prior to
watchdog time-out.

• Programmable 24-bit timer with internal fixed pre-scaler.
• Selectable time period from 1,024 watchdog clocks (TWDCLK  256  4) to over 67
million watchdog clocks (TWDCLK  224  4) in increments of 4 watchdog clocks.

• “Safe” watchdog operation. Once enabled, requires a hardware reset or a Watchdog
reset to be disabled.

• Incorrect feed sequence causes immediate watchdog event if enabled.
• The watchdog reload value can optionally be protected such that it can only be
changed after the “warning interrupt” time is reached.

• Flag to indicate Watchdog reset.
• The Watchdog clock (WDCLK) source can be selected as the Internal High frequency
oscillator (IRC) or the WatchDog oscillator.

• The Watchdog timer can be configured to run in Deep-sleep or Power-down mode
when using the watchdog oscillator as the clock source.

• Debug mode.

Chapter 17: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Windowed Watchdog Timer (WWDT)

17.4 Applications
The purpose of the Watchdog Timer is to reset or interrupt the microcontroller within a
programmable time if it enters an erroneous state. When enabled, a watchdog reset
and/or will be generated if the user program fails to “feed” (reload) the Watchdog within a
predetermined amount of time.
When a watchdog window is programmed, an early watchdog feed is also treated as a
watchdog event. This allows preventing situations where a system failure may still feed
the watchdog. For example, application code could be stuck in an interrupt service that
contains a watchdog feed. Setting the window such that this would result in an early feed
will generate a watchdog event, allowing for system recovery.

17.5 Description
The Watchdog consists of a fixed (divide by 4) pre-scaler and a 24 bit counter which
decrements when clocked. The minimum value from which the counter decrements is
0xFF. Setting a value lower than 0xFF causes 0xFF to be loaded in the counter. Hence the
minimum Watchdog interval is (TWDCLK  256  4) and the maximum Watchdog interval is
(TWDCLK  224  4) in multiples of (TWDCLK  4). The Watchdog should be used in the
following manner:

• Set the Watchdog timer constant reload value in the TC register.
• Set the Watchdog timer operating mode in the MOD register.
• Set a value for the watchdog window time in the WINDOW register if windowed
operation is desired.

• Set a value for the watchdog warning interrupt in the WARNINT register if a warning
interrupt is desired.

• Enable the Watchdog by writing 0xAA followed by 0x55 to the FEED register.
• The Watchdog must be fed again before the Watchdog counter reaches zero in order
to prevent a watchdog event. If a window value is programmed, the feed must also
occur after the watchdog counter passes that value.
When the Watchdog Timer is configured so that a watchdog event will cause a reset and
the counter reaches zero, the CPU will be reset, loading the stack pointer and program
counter from the vector table as for an external reset. The Watchdog time-out flag
(WDTOF) can be examined to determine if the Watchdog has caused the reset condition.
The WDTOF flag must be cleared by software.
When the Watchdog Timer is configured to generate a warning interrupt, the interrupt will
occur when the counter matches the value defined by the WARNINT register.

17.5.1 Block diagram
The block diagram of the Watchdog is shown below in the Figure 64. The synchronization
logic (PCLK - WDCLK) is not shown in the block diagram.

17.6 Clocking and power control
The watchdog timer block uses two clocks: PCLK and WDCLK. PCLK is used for the APB
accesses to the watchdog registers and is derived from the system clock (see Figure 7).
The WDCLK is used for the watchdog timer counting and is derived from the wdt_clk in
Figure 7. Either the IRC or the watchdog oscillator can be used as wdt_clk in Active mode,
Sleep mode, and Deep-sleep modes. In Power-down mode only the watchdog oscillator is
available.
The synchronization logic between the two clock domains works as follows: When the
MOD and TC registers are updated by APB operations, the new value will take effect in 3
WDCLK cycles on the logic in the WDCLK clock domain.
When the watchdog timer is counting on WDCLK, the synchronization logic will first lock
the value of the counter on WDCLK and then synchronize it with PCLK, so that the CPU
can read the WDTV register.
Remark: Because of the synchronization step, software must add a delay of three
WDCLK clock cycles between the feed sequence and the time the WDPROTECT bit is
enabled in the MOD register. The length of the delay depends on the selected watchdog
clock WDCLK.

17.7 Using the WWDT lock features
The WWDT supports several lock features which can be enabled to ensure that the
WWDT is running at all times:

• Accidental overwrite of the WWDT clock source
• Changing the WWDT clock source
• Changing the WWDT reload value
17.7.1 Accidental overwrite of the WWDT clock
If bit 31 of the WWDT CLKSEL register (Table 342) is set, writes to bit 0 of the CLKSEL
register, the clock source select bit, will be ignored and the clock source will not change.

17.7.2 Changing the WWDT clock source
If bit 5 in the WWDT MOD register is set, the current clock source as selected in the
CLKSEL register is locked and can not be changed either by software or by hardware
when Sleep, Deep-sleep or Power-down modes are entered. Therefore, the user must
ensure that the appropriate WWDT clock source for each power mode is selected before
setting bit 5 in the MOD register:

• Active or Sleep modes: Both the IRC or the watchdog oscillator are allowed.
• Deep-sleep mode: Both the IRC and the watchdog oscillator are allowed. However,
using the IRC during Deep-sleep mode will increase the power consumption. To
minimize power consumption, use the watchdog oscillator as clock source.

• Power-down mode: Only the watchdog oscillator is allowed as clock source for the
WWDT. Therefore, before setting bit 5 and locking the clock source, the WWDT clock
source must be set to the watchdog oscillator. Otherwise, the part may not be able to
enter Power-down mode.

• Deep power-down mode: No clock locking mechanisms are in effect as neither the
WWDT nor any of the clocks are running. However, an additional lock bit in the PMU
can be set to prevent the part from even entering Deep power-down mode (see
Table 54).
The clock source lock mechanism can only be disabled by a reset of any type.

17.7.3 Changing the WWDT reload value
If bit 4 is set in the WWDT MOD register, the watchdog time-out value (TC) can be
changed only after the counter is below the value of WDWARNINT and WDWINDOW.
The reload overwrite lock mechanism can only be disabled by a reset of any type.

WDTOF The Watchdog time-out flag is set when the Watchdog times out, when a feed
error occurs, or when PROTECT =1 and an attempt is made to write to the TC register.
This flag is cleared by software writing a 0 to this bit.
WDINT The Watchdog interrupt flag is set when the Watchdog counter reaches the value
specified by WARNINT. This flag is cleared when any reset occurs, and is cleared by
software by writing a 1 to this bit.
In all power modes except Deep power-down mode, a Watchdog reset or interrupt can
occur when the watchdog is running and has an operating clock source. The watchdog
oscillator or the IRC can be selected to keep running in Sleep and Deep-sleep modes. In
Power-down mode, only the watchdog oscillator is allowed. If a watchdog interrupt occurs
in Sleep, Deep-sleep mode, or Power-down mode and the WWDT interrupt is enabled in
the NVIC, the device will wake up. Note that in Deep-sleep and Power-down modes, the
WWDT interrupt must be enabled in the STARTERP1 register in addition to the NVIC.

Watchdog reset mode: both the watchdog interrupt and watchdog reset are

When this mode is selected, the watchdog counter reaching the value
specified by WDWARNINT will set the WDINT flag and the Watchdog
interrupt request will be generated, and the watchdog counter reaching zero
will reset the microcontroller. A watchdog feed prior to reaching the value of
WDWINDOW will also cause a watchdog reset.

17.8.2 Watchdog Timer Constant register
The TC register determines the time-out value. Every time a feed sequence occurs the
value in the TC is loaded into the Watchdog timer. The TC resets to 0x00 00FF. Writing a
value below 0xFF will cause 0x00 00FF to be loaded into the TC. Thus the minimum
time-out interval is TWDCLK  256  4.
If the WDPROTECT bit in WDMOD = 1, an attempt to change the value of TC before the
watchdog counter is below the values of WDWARNINT and WDWINDOW will cause a
watchdog reset and set the WDTOF flag.

17.8.3 Watchdog Feed register
Writing 0xAA followed by 0x55 to this register will reload the Watchdog timer with the
WDTC value. This operation will also start the Watchdog if it is enabled via the WDMOD
register. Setting the WDEN bit in the WDMOD register is not sufficient to enable the
Watchdog. A valid feed sequence must be completed after setting WDEN before the
Watchdog is capable of generating a reset. Until then, the Watchdog will ignore feed
errors.
After writing 0xAA to WDFEED, access to any Watchdog register other than writing 0x55
to WDFEED causes an immediate reset/interrupt when the Watchdog is enabled, and sets
the WDTOF flag. The reset will be generated during the second PCLK following an
incorrect access to a Watchdog register during a feed sequence.
It is good practise to disable interrupts around a feed sequence, if the application is such
that some/any interrupt might result in rescheduling processor control away from the
current task in the middle of the feed, and then lead to some other access to the WDT
before control is returned to the interrupted task.

The WDTV register is used to read the current value of Watchdog timer counter.
When reading the value of the 24 bit counter, the lock and synchronization procedure
takes up to 6 WDCLK cycles plus 6 PCLK cycles, so the value of WDTV is older than the
actual value of the timer when it's being read by the CPU.

17.8.6 Watchdog Timer Warning Interrupt register
The WDWARNINT register determines the watchdog timer counter value that will
generate a watchdog interrupt. When the watchdog timer counter matches the value
defined by WDWARNINT, an interrupt will be generated after the subsequent WDCLK.
A match of the watchdog timer counter to WDWARNINT occurs when the bottom 10 bits
of the counter have the same value as the 10 bits of WARNINT, and the remaining upper
bits of the counter are all 0. This gives a maximum time of 1,023 watchdog timer counts
(4,096 watchdog clocks) for the interrupt to occur prior to a watchdog event. If WARNINT
is 0, the interrupt will occur at the same time as the watchdog event.

Chapter 18: LPC11U3x/2x/1x System tick timer

Since the SysTick timer is a part of the Cortex-M0, it facilitates porting of software by
providing a standard timer that is available on Cortex-M0 based devices. The SysTick
timer can be used for:

• An RTOS tick timer which fires at a programmable rate (for example 100 Hz) and
invokes a SysTick routine.

• A high-speed alarm timer using the core clock.
• A simple counter. Software can use this to measure time to completion and time used.
• An internal clock source control based on missing/meeting durations. The
COUNTFLAG bit-field in the 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.
Refer to the Cortex-M0 User Guide for details.

18.5 Register description
The systick timer registers are located on the ARM Cortex-M0 private peripheral bus (see
Figure 4), and are part of the ARM Cortex-M0 core peripherals. For details, see

18.6 Functional description
The SysTick timer is a 24-bit timer that counts down to zero and generates an interrupt.
The intent is to provide a fixed 10 millisecond time interval between interrupts. The
SysTick timer is clocked from the CPU clock (the system clock, see Figure 4) or from the
reference clock, which is fixed to half the frequency of the CPU clock. In order to generate
recurring interrupts at a specific interval, the SYST_RVR register must be initialized with
the correct value for the desired interval. A default value is provided in the SYST_CALIB
register and may be changed by software. The default value gives a 10 millisecond
interrupt rate if the CPU clock is set to 50 MHz.

18.7 Example timer calculations
To use the system tick timer, do the following:
1. Program the SYST_RVR register with the reload value RELOAD to obtain the desired
time interval.
2. Clear the SYST_CVR register by writing to it. This ensures that the timer will count
from the SYST_RVR value rather than an arbitrary value when the timer is enabled.
3. Program the SYST_SCR register with the value 0x7 which enables the SysTick timer
and the SysTick timer interrupt.
The following example illustrates selecting the SysTick timer reload value to obtain a
10 ms time interval with the LPC11U3x/2x/1x system clock set to 50 MHz.
Example (system clock = 50 MHz)
The system tick clock = system clock = 50 MHz. Bit CLKSOURCE in the SYST_CSR
register set to 1 (system clock).
RELOAD = (system tick clock frequency  10 ms) 1 = (50 MHz  10 ms) 1 = 5000001
= 499999 = 0x0007A11F.

19.1 How to read this chapter
The ADC block is identical for all LPC11U3x/2x/1x parts.

19.2 Basic configuration
The ADC is configured using the following registers:
1. Pins: The ADC pin functions are configured in the IOCON register block (Section 7.4).
2. Power and peripheral clock: In the SYSAHBCLKCTRL register, set bit 13 (Table 24).
Power to the ADC is controlled through the PDRUNCFG register (Table 47).
Remark: Basic clocking for the A/D converters is determined by the APB clock (PCLK). A
programmable divider is included in the A/D converter to scale this clock to the 4.5 MHz
(max) clock needed by the successive approximation process. An accurate conversion
requires 11 clock cycles.

The ADC function must be selected via the IOCON registers in order to get accurate
voltage readings on the monitored pin. For a pin hosting an ADC input, it is not possible to
have a have a digital function selected and yet get valid ADC readings. An inside circuit
disconnects ADC hardware from the associated pin whenever a digital function is selected
on that pin.

19.5.1 A/D Control Register (CR - 0x4001 C000)
The A/D Control Register provides bits to select A/D channels to be converted, A/D timing,

7:0

SEL

Selects which of the AD7:0 pins is (are) to be sampled and converted. Bit 0 selects Pin
0x00
AD0, bit 1 selects pin AD1,..., and bit 7 selects pin AD7.
In software-controlled mode (BURST = 0), only one channel can be selected, i.e. only one
of these bits should be 1.
In hardware scan mode (BURST = 1), any numbers of channels can be selected, i.e any
or all bits can be set to 1. If all bits are set to 0, channel 0 is selected automatically (SEL =
0x01).

15:8

CLKDIV

The APB clock (PCLK) is divided by CLKDIV +1 to produce the clock for the ADC, which 0
should be less than or equal to 4.5 MHz. Typically, software should program the smallest
value in this field that yields a clock of 4.5 MHz or slightly less, but in certain cases (such
as a high-impedance analog source) a slower clock may be desirable.

0

Remark: If BURST is set to 1, the ADGINTEN bit in the INTEN register (Table 354) must

Software-controlled mode: Conversions are software-controlled and require 11 clocks.

1

Hardware scan mode: The AD converter does repeated conversions at the rate selected
by the CLKS field, scanning (if necessary) through the pins selected by 1s in the SEL
field. The first conversion after the start corresponds to the least-significant bit set to 1 in
the SEL field, then the next higher bits (pins) set to 1 are scanned if applicable. Repeated
conversions can be terminated by clearing this bit, but the conversion in progress when
this bit is cleared will be completed.
Important: START bits must be 000 when BURST = 1 or conversions will not start.

19:17 CLKS

This field selects the number of clocks used for each conversion in Burst mode, and the
number of bits of accuracy of the result in the LS bits of ADDR, between 11 clocks

19.6 Operation
19.6.1 Hardware-triggered conversion
If the BURST bit in the ADCR0 is 0 and the START field contains 010-111, the A/D
converter will start a conversion when a transition occurs on a selected pin or timer match
signal.

19.6.2 Interrupts
An interrupt is requested to the interrupt controller when the ADINT bit in the ADSTAT
register is 1. The ADINT bit is one when any of the DONE bits of A/D channels that are
enabled for interrupts (via the ADINTEN register) are one. Software can use the Interrupt
Enable bit in the interrupt controller that corresponds to the ADC to control whether this
results in an interrupt. The result register for an A/D channel that is generating an interrupt
must be read in order to clear the corresponding DONE flag.

19.6.3 Accuracy vs. digital receiver
While the A/D converter can be used to measure the voltage on any ADC input pin,
regardless of the pin’s setting in the IOCON block, selecting the ADC in the IOCON
registers function improves the conversion accuracy by disabling the pin’s digital receiver
(see also Section 7.3.7).

Chapter 20: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Flash programming firmware

20.2 Bootloader
The bootloader controls initial operation after reset and also provides the means to
program the flash memory. This could be initial programming of a blank device, erasure
and re-programming of a previously programmed device, or programming of the flash
memory by the application program in a running system.
The bootloader version can be read by ISP/IAP calls (see Section 20.13.12 or
Section 20.14.6).
Remark: SRAM location 0x1000 0000 to 0x1000 0050 is not used by the bootloader and
the memory content in this area is retained during reset. SRAM memory is not retained
when the part powers down or enters Deep power-down mode.

20.3 Features
• In-System Programming: In-System programming (ISP) is programming or
reprogramming the on-chip flash memory, using the bootloader software and the
UART serial port. This can be done when the part resides in the end-user board.

• In Application Programming: In-Application (IAP) programming is performing erase
and write operation on the on-chip flash memory, as directed by the end-user
application code.

• Flash access times can be configured through a register in the flash controller block.
• Erase time for one sector is 100 ms  5%. Programming time for one block of
256 bytes is 1 ms  5%.

• Support for ISP via the USB port through enumeration as a Mass Storage Class
(MSC) Device when connected to a USB host interface. See Section 20.1 for
supported parts.

20.4 Description
The bootloader code is executed every time the part is powered on or reset (see
Figure 69). The loader can execute the ISP command handler or the user application
code. A LOW level during reset at the PIO0_1 pin is considered an external hardware
request to start the ISP command handler (or the USB device handler - see Section 20.1)
without checking for a valid user code first.
Assuming that power supply pins are at their nominal levels when the rising edge on
RESET pin is generated, it may take up to 3 ms before the ISP entry pin is sampled and
the decision whether to continue with user code or ISP handler is made. The boot loader
performs the following steps (see Figure 69):
1. If the watchdog overflow flag is set, the boot loader checks whether a valid user code
is present. If the watchdog overflow flag is not set, the ISP entry pin is checked.
2. If there is no request for the ISP command handler execution (ISP entry pin is
sampled HIGH after reset), a search is made for a valid user program.
3. If a valid user program is found then the execution control is transferred to it. If a valid
user program is not found, the boot loader checks the USB boot pin to load a user
code either via USB or UART.

Chapter 20: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Flash programming firmware

For the LPC11U3x/2x/1x parts, the state of PIO0_3 determines whether the UART or USB
interface will be used (see Section 20.1):

• If PIO0_3 is sampled HIGH, the bootloader connects the LPC1Uxx as a MSC USB
device to a PC host. The LPC11U3x/2x/1x flash memory space is represented as a
drive in the host’s operating system.

• If PIO0_3 is sampled LOW, the bootloader configures the UART serial port using pins
PIO0_18 and PIO0_19 for RXD and TXD and calls the ISP command handler.
Remark: The sampling of pin PIO0_1 can be disabled through programming flash
location 0x0000 02FC (see Section 20.12.1).
The use of the ISP entry pins depends on the boot loader version. See Table 358. The
boot loader version can be obtained using the ISP or IAP commands. Also refer to the
LPC11U1x errata.

20.5 Memory map after any reset
The boot block is 16 kB in size and is located in the memory region starting from the
address 0x1FFF 0000. The bootloader is designed to run from this memory area, but both
the ISP and IAP software use parts of the on-chip RAM. The RAM usage is described
later in this chapter. The interrupt vectors residing in the boot block of the on-chip flash
memory also become active after reset, i.e., the bottom 512 bytes of the boot block are
also visible in the memory region starting from the address 0x0000 0000.

20.6 Flash content protection mechanism
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x is equipped with the Error Correction Code (ECC) capable Flash
memory. The purpose of an error correction module is twofold. Firstly, it decodes data
words read from the memory into output data words. Secondly, it encodes data words to
be written to the memory. The error correction capability consists of single bit error
correction with Hamming code.
The operation of ECC is transparent to the running application. The ECC content itself is
stored in a flash memory not accessible by user’s code to either read from it or write into it
on its own. A byte of ECC corresponds to every consecutive 128 bits of the user
accessible Flash. Consequently, Flash bytes from 0x0000 0000 to 0x0000 000F are
protected by the first ECC byte, Flash bytes from 0x0000 0010 to 0x0000 001F are
protected by the second ECC byte, etc.

Chapter 20: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Flash programming firmware

Whenever the CPU requests a read from user’s Flash, both 128 bits of raw data
containing the specified memory location and the matching ECC byte are evaluated. If the
ECC mechanism detects a single error in the fetched data, a correction will be applied
before data are provided to the CPU. When a write request into the user’s Flash is made,
write of user specified content is accompanied by a matching ECC value calculated and
stored in the ECC memory.
When a sector of Flash memory is erased, the corresponding ECC bytes are also erased.
Once an ECC byte is written, it can not be updated unless it is erased first. Therefore, for
the implemented ECC mechanism to perform properly, data must be written into the flash
memory in groups of 16 bytes (or multiples of 16), aligned as described above.

20.7 Criterion for Valid User Code
The reserved ARM Cortex-M0 exception vector location 7 (offset 0x0000 001C in the
vector table) should contain the 2’s complement of the check-sum of table entries 0
through 6. This causes the checksum of the first 8 table entries to be 0. The bootloader
code checksums the first 8 locations in sector 0 of the flash. If the result is 0, then
execution control is transferred to the user code.
If the signature is not valid, the auto-baud routine synchronizes with the host via the serial
port (UART).
If the UART is selected, the host should send a ’?’ (0x3F) as a synchronization character
and wait for a response. The host side serial port settings should be 8 data bits, 1 stop bit
and no parity. The auto-baud routine measures the bit time of the received
synchronization character in terms of its own frequency and programs the baud rate
generator of the serial port. It also sends an ASCII string ("Synchronized") to
the host. In response to this host should send the same string
("Synchronized"). The auto-baud routine looks at the received characters to
verify synchronization. If synchronization is verified then "OK" string is sent to
the host. Host should respond by sending the crystal frequency (in kHz) at which the part
is running. For example, if the part is running at 10 MHz, the response from the host
should be "10000". "OK" string is sent to the host after receiving the
crystal frequency. If synchronization is not verified then the auto-baud routine waits again
for a synchronization character. For auto-baud to work correctly in case of user invoked
ISP, the CCLK frequency should be greater than or equal to 10 MHz. In USART ISP
mode, the LPC11U3x/2x/1x is clocked by the IRC and the crystal frequency is ignored.
Once the crystal frequency is received the part is initialized and the ISP command handler
is invoked. For safety reasons an "Unlock" command is required before executing the
commands resulting in flash erase/write operations and the "Go" command. The rest of
the commands can be executed without the unlock command. The Unlock command is
required to be executed once per ISP session. The Unlock command is explained in
Section 20.13 “ISP commands” on page 399.

20.8 ISP/IAP communication protocol
All ISP commands should be sent as single ASCII strings. Strings should be terminated
with Carriage Return (CR) and/or Line Feed (LF) control characters. Extra  and
 characters are ignored. All ISP responses are sent as  terminated ASCII
strings. Data is sent and received in UU-encoded format.

20.8.1 ISP command format
"Command Parameter_0 Parameter_1 ... Parameter_n" "Data" (Data only for
Write commands).

20.8.2 ISP response format
"Return_CodeResponse_0Response_1 ...
Response_n" "Data" (Data only for Read commands).

20.8.3 ISP data format
The data stream is in UU-encoded format. The UU-encode algorithm converts 3 bytes of
binary data in to 4 bytes of printable ASCII character set. It is more efficient than Hex
format which converts 1 byte of binary data in to 2 bytes of ASCII hex. The sender should
send the check-sum after transmitting 20 UU-encoded lines. The length of any
UU-encoded line should not exceed 61 characters (bytes) i.e. it can hold 45 data bytes.
The receiver should compare it with the check-sum of the received bytes. If the
check-sum matches then the receiver should respond with "OK" to continue
further transmission. If the check-sum does not match the receiver should respond with
"RESEND". In response the sender should retransmit the bytes.

20.8.4 ISP flow control
A software XON/XOFF flow control scheme is used to prevent data loss due to buffer
overrun. When the data arrives rapidly, the ASCII control character DC3 (stop) is sent to
stop the flow of data. Data flow is resumed by sending the ASCII control character DC1
(start). The host should also support the same flow control scheme.

20.8.5 ISP command abort
Commands can be aborted by sending the ASCII control character "ESC". This feature is
not documented as a command under "ISP Commands" section. Once the escape code is
received the ISP command handler waits for a new command.

20.8.6 Interrupts during ISP
The boot block interrupt vectors located in the boot block of the flash are active after any
reset.

Chapter 20: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Flash programming firmware

20.8.7 Interrupts during IAP
The on-chip flash memory and EEPROM are not accessible during erase/write
operations. When the user application code starts executing, the interrupt vectors from the
user flash area are active. Before making any IAP call, either disable the interrupts or
ensure that the user interrupt vectors are active in RAM and that the interrupt handlers
reside in RAM. The IAP code does not use or disable interrupts.

20.8.8 RAM used by ISP command handler
ISP commands use on-chip RAM from 0x1000 017C to 0x1000 025B. The user could use
this area, but the contents may be lost upon reset. Flash programming commands use the
top 32 bytes of on-chip RAM. The stack is located at RAM top  32 bytes. The maximum
stack usage is 256 bytes and grows downwards.

20.8.9 RAM used by IAP command handler
Flash programming commands use the top 32 bytes of on-chip RAM. The maximum stack
usage in the user allocated stack space is 128 bytes and grows downwards.

20.9 USB communication protocol
Remark: See Section 20.1 for supported parts.
The LPC11U3x/2x/1x is enumerated as a Mass Storage Class (MSC) device to a PC or
another embedded system. In order to connect via the USB interface, the
LPC11U3x/2x/1x must use the external crystal at a frequency of 12 MHz. The MSC device
presents an easy integration with the PC’s operating system. The LPC11U3x/2x/1x flash
memory space is represented as a drive in the host file system. The entire available user
flash is mapped to a file of the size of the LPC11U3x/2x/1x flash in the host’s folder with
the default name ‘firmware.bin’. The ‘firmware.bin’ file can be deleted and a new file can
be copied into the directory, thereby updating the user code in flash. Note that the
filename of the new flash image file is not important. After a reset or a power cycle, the
new file is visible in the host’s file system under it’s default name ‘firmware.bin’.
The code read protection (CRP, see Table 359) level determines how the flash is
reprogrammed:
If CRP1 or CRP2 is enabled, the user flash is erased when the file is deleted.
If CRP1 is enabled or no CRP is selected, the user flash is erased and reprogrammed
when the new file is copied. However, only the area occupied by the new file is erased
and reprogrammed.
Remark: The only commands supported for the LPC11U3x/2x/1x flash image folder are
copy and delete.
Three Code Read Protection (CRP) levels can be enabled for flash images updated
through USB (see Section 20.12 for details). The volume label on the MSCD indicates the
CRP status.

20.12 Code Read Protection (CRP)
Code Read Protection is a mechanism that allows the user to enable different levels of
security in the system so that access to the on-chip flash and use of the ISP can be
restricted. When needed, CRP is invoked by programming a specific pattern in flash
location at 0x0000 02FC. IAP commands are not affected by the code read protection.
Important: any CRP change becomes effective only after the device has gone
through a power cycle.

CRP1

0x12345678

Access to chip via the SWD pins is disabled. This mode allows
partial flash update using the following ISP commands and
restrictions:

•

Write to RAM command should not access RAM below 0x1000
0300. Access to addresses below 0x1000 0200 is disabled.

•
•

Copy RAM to flash command can not write to Sector 0.

•
•

Compare command is disabled.

Erase command can erase Sector 0 only when all sectors are
selected for erase.
Read Memory command is disabled.

This mode is useful when CRP is required and flash field updates
are needed but all sectors can not be erased. Since compare
command is disabled in case of partial updates the secondary
loader should implement checksum mechanism to verify the integrity
of the flash.
CRP2

0x87654321

Access to chip via the SWD pins is disabled. The following ISP
commands are disabled:

•
•
•
•
•

Go
Copy RAM to flash
Compare

When CRP2 is enabled the ISP erase command only allows erasure
of all user sectors.
CRP3

0x43218765

Access to chip via the SWD pins is disabled. ISP entry by pulling
PIO0_1 LOW is disabled if a valid user code is present in flash
sector 0.
This mode effectively disables ISP override using PIO0_1 pin. It is
up to the user’s application to provide a flash update mechanism
using IAP calls or call reinvoke ISP command to enable flash update
via UART0.
Caution: If CRP3 is selected, no future factory testing can be
performed on the device.

20.12.1 ISP entry protection
In addition to the three CRP modes, the user can prevent the sampling of pin PIO0_1 for
entering ISP mode and thereby release pin PIO0_1 for other uses. This is called the
NO_ISP mode. The NO_ISP mode can be entered by programming the pattern
0x4E69 7370 at location 0x0000 02FC.
The NO_ISP mode is identical to the CRP3 mode except for SWD access, which is
allowed in NO_ISP mode but disabled in CRP3 mode. The NO_ISP mode does not offer
any code protection.

The new baud rate is effective after the command handler sends the CMD_SUCCESS return code. Example "B 57600 1" sets the serial port to baud rate 57600 bps and 1 stop bit. 20.13.3 Echo Table 368. ISP Echo command Command A Input Setting: ON = 1 | OFF = 0 Return Code CMD_SUCCESS | PARAM_ERROR Description The default setting for echo command is ON. When ON the ISP command handler sends the received serial data back to the host. Example "A 0" turns echo off. 20.13.4 Write to RAM The host should send the data only after receiving the CMD_SUCCESS return code. The host should send the check-sum after transmitting 20 UU-encoded lines. The checksum is generated by adding raw data (before UU-encoding) bytes and is reset after transmitting 20 UU-encoded lines. The length of any UU-encoded line should not exceed 61 characters (bytes) i.e. it can hold 45 data bytes. When the data fits in less than 20 UU-encoded lines then the check-sum should be of the actual number of bytes sent. The ISP command handler compares it with the check-sum of the received bytes. If the check-sum matches, the ISP command handler responds with "OK" to continue further transmission. If the check-sum does not match, the ISP command handler responds with "RESEND". In response the host should retransmit the bytes. UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014 © NXP B.V. 2014.

ISP Write to RAM command Command W Input Start Address: RAM address where data bytes are to be written. This address should be a word boundary. Number of Bytes: Number of bytes to be written. Count should be a multiple of 4 Return Code CMD_SUCCESS | ADDR_ERROR (Address not on word boundary) | ADDR_NOT_MAPPED | COUNT_ERROR (Byte count is not multiple of 4) | PARAM_ERROR | CODE_READ_PROTECTION_ENABLED Description This command is used to download data to RAM. Data should be in UU-encoded format. This command is blocked when code read protection is enabled. Example "W 268436224 4" writes 4 bytes of data to address 0x1000 0300. 20.13.5 Read Memory
The data stream is followed by the command success return code. The check-sum is sent after transmitting 20 UU-encoded lines. The checksum is generated by adding raw data (before UU-encoding) bytes and is reset after transmitting 20 UU-encoded lines. The length of any UU-encoded line should not exceed 61 characters (bytes) i.e. it can hold 45 data bytes. When the data fits in less than 20 UU-encoded lines then the check-sum is of actual number of bytes sent. The host should compare it with the checksum of the received bytes. If the check-sum matches then the host should respond with "OK" to continue further transmission. If the check-sum does not match then the host should respond with "RESEND". In response the ISP command handler sends the data again. Table 370. ISP Read Memory command Command R Input Start Address: Address from where data bytes are to be read. This address should be a word boundary. Number of Bytes: Number of bytes to be read. Count should be a multiple of 4. Return Code CMD_SUCCESS followed by | ADDR_ERROR (Address not on word boundary) | ADDR_NOT_MAPPED | COUNT_ERROR (Byte count is not a multiple of 4) | PARAM_ERROR | CODE_READ_PROTECTION_ENABLED Description This command is used to read data from RAM or flash memory. This command is blocked when code read protection is enabled. Example "R 268435456 4" reads 4 bytes of data from address 0x1000 0000. 20.13.6 Prepare sector(s) for write operation This command makes flash write/erase operation a two step process.

All rights reserved. 401 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 20: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Flash programming firmware Table 371. ISP Prepare sector(s) for write operation command Command P Input Start Sector Number End Sector Number: Should be greater than or equal to start sector number. Return Code CMD_SUCCESS | BUSY | INVALID_SECTOR | PARAM_ERROR Description This command must be executed before executing "Copy RAM to flash" or "Erase Sector(s)" command. Successful execution of the "Copy RAM to flash" or "Erase Sector(s)" command causes relevant sectors to be protected again. The boot block can not be prepared by this command. To prepare a single sector use the same "Start" and "End" sector numbers. Example "P 0 0" prepares the flash sector 0. 20.13.7 Copy RAM to flash When writing to the flash, the following limitations apply: 1. The smallest amount of data that can be written to flash by the copy RAM to flash command is 256 byte (equal to one page). 2. One page consists of 16 flash words (lines), and the smallest amount that can be modified per flash write is one flash word (one line). This limitation is due to the application of ECC to the flash write operation, see Section 20.6. 3. To avoid write disturbance (a mechanism intrinsic to flash memories), an erase should be performed after following 16 consecutive writes inside the same page. Note that the erase operation then erases the entire sector. Remark: Once a page has been written to 16 times, it is still possible to write to other pages within the same sector without performing a sector erase (assuming that those pages have been erased previously).

The "Prepare Sector(s) for Write Operation" command should precede this command. The affected sectors are automatically protected again once the copy command is successfully executed. The boot block cannot be written by this command. This command is blocked when code read protection is enabled. Also see Section 20.6 for the number of bytes that can be written. Example "C 0 268467504 512" copies 512 bytes from the RAM address 0x1000 0800 to the flash address 0. 20.13.8 Go
The GO command is usually used after the flash image has been updated. After the update a reset is required. Therefore, the GO command should point to the RESET handler. Since the device is still in ISP mode, the RESET handler should do the following: • Re-initialize the SP pointer to the application default. • Set the SYSMEMREMAP to either 0x01 or 0x02. While in ISP mode, the SYSMEMREMAP is set to 0x00. Alternatively, the following snippet can be loaded into the RAM for execution: SCB->AIRCR = 0x05FA0004; //issue system reset while(1); //should never come here This snippet will issue a system reset request to the core.

See Section 5.7.1 “set_power”. For in application programming the IAP routine should be called with a word pointer in register r0 pointing to memory (RAM) containing command code and parameters. The result of the IAP command is returned in the result table pointed to by register r1. The user can reuse the command table for result by passing the same pointer in registers r0 and r1. The parameter table should be big enough to hold all the results in case the number of results are more than number of parameters. Parameter passing is illustrated in the Figure 70. The number of parameters and results vary according to the IAP command. The maximum number of parameters is 5, passed to the "Copy RAM to FLASH" command. The maximum number of results is 4, returned by the "ReadUID" command. The command handler sends the status code INVALID_COMMAND when an undefined command is received. The IAP routine resides at 0x1FFF 1FF0 location and it is thumb code. The IAP function could be called in the following way using C: Define the IAP location entry point. Since the 0th bit of the IAP location is set there will be a change to Thumb instruction set when the program counter branches to this address. #define IAP_LOCATION 0x1fff1ff1 Define data structure or pointers to pass IAP command table and result table to the IAP function: unsigned int command_param[5]; unsigned int status_result[4]; or unsigned int * command_param; unsigned int * status_result; command_param = (unsigned int *) 0x... status_result =(unsigned int *) 0x... Define pointer to function type, which takes two parameters and returns void. Note the IAP returns the result with the base address of the table residing in R1. typedef void (*IAP)(unsigned int [],unsigned int[]); IAP iap_entry; Setting the function pointer: iap_entry=(IAP) IAP_LOCATION; To call the IAP, use the following statement. iap_entry (command_param,status_result); UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

Additional parameters are passed on the stack. Up to 4 parameters can be returned in the r0, r1, r2 and r3 registers respectively. Additional parameters are returned indirectly via memory. Some of the IAP calls require more than 4 parameters. If the ARM suggested scheme is used for the parameter passing/returning then it might create problems due to difference in the C compiler implementation from different vendors. The suggested parameter passing scheme reduces such risk. The flash memory is not accessible during a write or erase operation. IAP commands, which results in a flash write/erase operation, use 32 bytes of space in the top portion of the on-chip RAM for execution. The user program should not be using this space if IAP flash programming is permitted in the application. Table 382.

Singe pages are interleaved over the EEPROM devices when multiple devices are used, the signature is generated over memory of multiple devices. 1: the BIST signature is generated only over a memory range located on a single EEPROM device. Therefore the internal address generation is done such that the address’ CS bits are kept stable to select only the same device. The address’ MSB and LSB bits are used to step through the memory range specified by the start and stop address fields. Note: if this bit is set the start and stop address fields must be programmed such that they both address the same EEPROM device. Therefore the address’ CS bits in both the start and stop address must be the same. 31 STRTBIST BIST start bit Setting this bit will start the BIST.

User software must not change the value of these bits. Bits 31:2 must be written back exactly as read. 20.16.4.2 Flash signature generation The flash module contains a built-in signature generator. This generator can produce a 128-bit signature from a range of flash memory. A typical usage is to verify the flashed contents against a calculated signature (e.g. during programming). The address range for generating a signature must be aligned on flash-word boundaries, i.e. 128-bit boundaries. Once started, signature generation completes independently. While signature generation is in progress, the flash memory cannot be accessed for other purposes, and an attempted read will cause a wait state to be asserted until signature generation is complete. Code outside of the flash (e.g. internal RAM) can be executed during signature generation. This can include interrupt services, if the interrupt vector table is re-mapped to memory other than the flash memory. The code that initiates signature generation should also be placed outside of the flash memory. 20.16.4.3 Signature generation address and control registers These registers control automatic signature generation. A signature can be generated for any part of the flash memory contents. The address range to be used for generation is defined by writing the start address to the signature start address register (FMSSTART) and the stop address to the signature stop address register (FMSSTOP). The start and stop addresses must be aligned to 128-bit boundaries and can be derived by dividing the byte address by 16. Signature generation is started by setting the SIG_START bit in the FMSSTOP register. Setting the SIG_START bit is typically combined with the signature stop address in a single write. Table 402 and Table 403 show the bit assignments in the FMSSTART and FMSSTOP registers respectively. Table 402.

The generated signature can be compared with an expected signature and thus makes saves time and code space. The method for generating the signature is described in Section 20.16.4.7.

The value read from a reserved bit is not defined. 20.16.4.7 Algorithm and procedure for signature generation Signature generation A signature can be generated for any part of the flash contents. The address range to be used for signature generation is defined by writing the start address to the FMSSTART register, and the stop address to the FMSSTOP register. The signature generation is started by writing a ‘1’ to the SIG_START bit in the FMSSTOP register. Starting the signature generation is typically combined with defining the stop address, which is done in the STOP bits of the same register. The time that the signature generation takes is proportional to the address range for which the signature is generated. Reading of the flash memory for signature generation uses a self-timed read mechanism and does not depend on any configurable timing settings for the flash. A safe estimation for the duration of the signature generation is: Duration = int((60 / tcy) + 3) x (FMSSTOP - FMSSTART + 1) When signature generation is triggered via software, the duration is in AHB clock cycles, and tcy is the time in ns for one AHB clock. The SIG_DONE bit in FMSTAT can be polled by software to determine when signature generation is complete. After signature generation, a 128-bit signature can be read from the FMSW0 to FMSW3 registers. The 128-bit signature reflects the corrected data read from the flash. The 128-bit signature reflects flash parity bits and check bit values.

The TMS pin selects the next state in the TAP state machine. This pin includes an internal pull-up and is used for JTAG boundary scan when the RESET pin is LOW. TDI Input JTAG Test Data In. This is the serial data input for the shift register. This pin includes an internal pull-up and is used for JTAG boundary scan when the RESET pin is LOW. TDO Output JTAG Test Data Output. This is the serial data output from the shift register. Data is shifted out of the device on the negative edge of the TCK signal. This pin is used for JTAG boundary scan when the RESET pin is LOW. TRST Input JTAG Test Reset. The TRST pin can be used to reset the test logic within the debug logic. This pin includes an internal pull-up and is used for JTAG boundary scan when the RESET pin is LOW. 21.6 Functional description 21.6.1 Debug limitations Important: Due to limitations of the ARM Cortex-M0 integration, the LPC11U3x/2x/1x cannot wake up in the usual manner from Deep-sleep mode. It is recommended not to use this mode during debug. Another issue is that debug mode changes the way in which reduced power modes work internal to the ARM Cortex-M0 CPU, and this ripples through the entire system. These differences mean that power measurements should not be made while debugging, the results will be higher than during normal operation in an application. During a debugging session, the System Tick Timer is automatically stopped whenever the CPU is stopped. Other peripherals are not affected. 21.6.2 Debug connections for SWD For debugging purposes, it is useful to provide access to the ISP entry pin PIO0_1. This pin can be used to recover the part from configurations which would disable the SWD port such as improper PLL configuration, reconfiguration of SWD pins as ADC inputs, entry into Deep power-down mode out of reset, etc. This pin can be used for other functions such as GPIO, but it should not be held LOW on power-up or reset.

Fig 72. Connecting the SWD pins to a standard SWD connector 21.6.3 Boundary scan The RESET pin selects between the JTAG boundary scan (RESET = LOW) and the ARM SWD debug (RESET = HIGH). The ARM SWD debug port is disabled while the LPC11U3x/2x/1x is in reset. To perform boundary scan testing, follow these steps: 1. Erase any user code residing in flash. 2. Power up the part with the RESET pin pulled HIGH externally. 3. Wait for at least 250 s. 4. Pull the RESET pin LOW externally. 5. Perform boundary scan operations. 6. Once the boundary scan operations are completed, assert the TRST pin to enable the SWD debug mode and release the RESET pin (pull HIGH). Remark: The JTAG interface cannot be used for debug purposes. Remark: POR, BOD reset, or a LOW on the TRST pin puts the test TAP controller in the Test-Logic Reset state. The first TCK clock while RESET = HIGH places the test TAP in Run-Test Idle mode.

All rights reserved. 428 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 23: LPC11U3x/2x/1x I/O Handler 23.6.1.1 I/O Handler I2S The I/O Handler software library provides functions to emulate an I2S master transmit interface using the I/O Handler hardware block. The emulated I2S interface loops over a 1 kB buffer, transmitting the datawords according to the I2S protocol. Interrupts are generated every time when the first 512 bytes have been transmitted and when the last 512 bytes have been transmitted. This allows the ARM core to load the free portion of the buffer with new data, thereby enabling streaming audio. Two channels with 16-bit per channel are supported. The code size of the software library is 1 kB and code must be executed from the SRAM1 memory area reserved for the I/O Handler code. 23.6.1.2 I/O Handler UART The I/O Handler UART library emulates one additional full-duplex UART. The emulated UART can be configured for 7 or 8 data bits, no parity and 1 or 2 stop bits. The baud rate is configurable up to 115200 baud. The RXD signal is available on three I/O Handler pins (IOH_6, IOH_16, IOH_20), while TXD and CTS are available on all 21 I/O Handler pins. The code size of the software library is about 1.2 kB and code must be executed from the SRAM1 memory area reserved for the I/O Handler code. 23.6.1.3 I/O Handler I2C The I/O Handler I2C library allows to have an additional I2C-bus master. I2C read, I2C write and combined I2C read/write are supported. Data is automatically read from and written to user-defined buffers. The I/O Handler I2C library combined with the on-chip I2C module allows to have two distinct I2C buses, allowing to separate low-speed from high-speed devices or bridging two I2C buses. 23.6.1.4 I/O Handler DMA The I/O Handler DMA library offers DMA-like functionality. Four types of transfer are supported: memory to memory, memory to peripheral, peripheral to memory and peripheral to peripheral. Supported peripherals are USART, SSP0/1, ADC and GPIO. DMA transfers can be triggered by the source/target peripheral, software, counter/timer module CT16B1, or I/O Handler pin PIO1_6/IOH_16.

Minor changes have been made regarding the specific implementation of the Cortex-M0 for the LPC11U3x/2x/1x. 24.2 About the Cortex-M0 processor and core peripherals The Cortex-M0 processor is an entry-level 32-bit ARM Cortex processor designed for a broad range of embedded applications. It offers significant benefits to developers, including: • • • • • a simple architecture that is easy to learn and program ultra-low power, energy efficient operation excellent code density deterministic, high-performance interrupt handling upward compatibility with Cortex-M processor family. &RUWH[0FRPSRQHQWV &RUWH[0SURFHVVRU 1HVWHG 9HFWRUHG ,QWHUUXSW &RQWUROOHU 19,& ,QWHUUXSWV 'HEXJ &RUWH[0 SURFHVVRU FRUH %UHDNSRLQW DQG ZDWFKSRLQW XQLW %XVPDWUL[ 'HEXJJHU LQWHUIDFH $+%/LWHLQWHUIDFHWRV\VWHP 'HEXJ $FFHVV3RUW '$3 6HULDO:LUHGHEXJSRUW Fig 74. Cortex-M0 implementation The Cortex-M0 processor is built on a highly area and power optimized 32-bit processor core, with a 3-stage pipeline von Neumann architecture. The processor delivers exceptional energy efficiency through a small but powerful instruction set and extensively optimized design, providing high-end processing hardware including a single-cycle multiplier. The Cortex-M0 processor implements the ARMv6-M architecture, which is based on the 16-bit Thumb instruction set and includes Thumb-2 technology. This provides the exceptional performance expected of a modern 32-bit architecture, with a higher code density than other 8-bit and 16-bit microcontrollers.

All rights reserved. 430 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 The Cortex-M0 processor closely integrates a configurable Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC), to deliver industry-leading interrupt performance. The NVIC: • includes a non-maskable interrupt (NMI). • provides zero jitter interrupt option. • provides four interrupt priority levels. The tight integration of the processor core and NVIC provides fast execution of interrupt service routines (ISRs), dramatically reducing the interrupt latency. This is achieved through the hardware stacking of registers, and the ability to abandon and restart load-multiple and store-multiple operations. Interrupt handlers do not require any assembler wrapper code, removing any 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, that include a Deep-sleep function that enables the entire device to be rapidly powered down. 24.2.1 System-level interface The Cortex-M0 processor provides a single system-level interface using AMBA technology to provide high speed, low latency memory accesses. 24.2.2 Integrated configurable debug The Cortex-M0 processor implements a complete hardware debug solution, with extensive hardware breakpoint and watchpoint options. This provides high system visibility of the processor, memory and peripherals through a 2-pin Serial Wire Debug (SWD) port that is ideal for microcontrollers and other small package devices. 24.2.3 Cortex-M0 processor features summary • • • • • • • high code density with 32-bit performance tools and binary upwards compatible with Cortex-M processor family integrated ultra low-power sleep modes efficient code execution permits slower processor clock or increases sleep mode time single-cycle 32-bit hardware multiplier zero jitter interrupt handling extensive debug capabilities. 24.2.4 Cortex-M0 core peripherals These are: NVIC — The NVIC is an embedded interrupt controller that supports low latency interrupt processing. System Control Block — The System Control Block (SCB) is the programmers model interface to the processor. It provides system implementation information and system control, including configuration, control, and reporting of system exceptions.

Use this as a Real Time Operating System (RTOS) tick timer or as a simple counter. 24.3 Processor 24.3.1 Programmers model This section describes the Cortex-M0 programmers model. In addition to the individual core register descriptions, it contains information about the processor modes and stacks. 24.3.1.1 Processor modes The processor modes are: Thread mode — Used to execute application software. The processor enters Thread mode when it comes out of reset. Handler mode — Used to handle exceptions. The processor returns to Thread mode when it has finished all exception processing. 24.3.1.2 Stacks The processor uses a full descending stack. This means the stack pointer indicates the last stacked item on the stack 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, the main stack and the process stack, with independent copies of the stack pointer, see Section 24.3.1.3.2. In Thread mode, the CONTROL register controls whether the processor uses the main stack or the process stack, see Section 24–24.3.1.3.7. In Handler mode, the processor always uses the main stack. The options for processor operations are: Table 412. Summary of processor mode and stack use options Processor mode Used to execute Stack used Thread Applications Main stack or process stack See Section 24–24.3.1.3.7 Handler Exception handlers Main stack 24.3.1.3 Core registers The processor core registers are: UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

It stores the return information for subroutines, function calls, and exceptions. On reset, the LR value is Unknown. 24.3.1.3.4 Program Counter The Program Counter (PC) is register R15. It contains the current program address. On reset, the processor loads the PC with the value of the reset vector, which is at address 0x00000004. Bit[0] of the value is loaded into the EPSR T-bit at reset and must be 1. 24.3.1.3.5 Program Status Register The Program Status Register (PSR) combines: • Application Program Status Register (APSR) • Interrupt Program Status Register (IPSR) • Execution Program Status Register (EPSR). These registers are mutually exclusive bitfields in the 32-bit PSR. The PSR bit assignments are:           $365 1 = & 9 5HVHUYHG ,365 (365  5HVHUYHG 5HVHUYHG 7 ([FHSWLRQQXPEHU 5HVHUYHG Fig 76.

Application Program Status Register: The APSR contains the current state of the condition flags, from previous instruction executions. See the register summary in Table 24–413 for its attributes. The bit assignments are: Table 415. APSR bit assignments Bits Name Function [31] N Negative flag [30] Z Zero flag [29] C Carry or borrow flag [28] V Overflow flag [27:0] - Reserved See Section 24.4.4.1.4 for more information about the APSR negative, zero, carry or borrow, and overflow flags. Interrupt Program Status Register: The IPSR contains the exception number of the current Interrupt Service Routine (ISR). See the register summary in Table 24–413 for its attributes. The bit assignments are: Table 416.

Execution Program Status Register: The EPSR contains the Thumb state bit. See the register summary in Table 24–413 for the EPSR attributes. The bit assignments are: UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014 © NXP B.V. 2014. All rights reserved. 435 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 Table 417. EPSR bit assignments Bits Name Function [31:25] - Reserved [24] T Thumb state bit [23:0] - Reserved Attempts by application software to read the EPSR directly using the MRS instruction always return zero. Attempts to write the EPSR using the MSR instruction are ignored. Fault handlers can examine the EPSR value in the stacked PSR to determine the cause of the fault. See Section 24–24.3.3.6. The following can clear the T bit to 0: • instructions BLX, BX and POP{PC} • restoration from the stacked xPSR value on an exception return • bit[0] of the vector value on an exception entry. Attempting to execute instructions when the T bit is 0 results in a HardFault or lockup. See Section 24–24.3.4.1 for more information. Interruptible-restartable instructions: The interruptible-restartable instructions are LDM and STM. When an interrupt occurs during the execution of one of these instructions, the processor abandons execution of the instruction. After servicing the interrupt, the processor restarts execution of the instruction from the beginning. 24.3.1.3.6 Exception mask register The exception mask register disables the handling of exceptions by the processor. Disable exceptions where they might impact on timing critical tasks or code sequences requiring atomicity. To disable or re-enable exceptions, use the MSR and MRS instructions, or the CPS instruction, to change the value of PRIMASK. See Section 24–24.4.7.6, Section 24–24.4.7.7, and Section 24–24.4.7.2 for more information. Priority Mask Register: The PRIMASK register prevents activation of all exceptions with configurable priority. See the register summary in Table 24–413 for its attributes. The bit assignments are: Table 418. PRIMASK register bit assignments Bits Name Function [31:1] - Reserved [0] PRIMASK 0 = no effect 1 = prevents the activation of all exceptions with configurable priority. 24.3.1.3.7 CONTROL register The CONTROL register controls the stack used when the processor is in Thread mode. See the register summary in Table 24–413 for its attributes. The bit assignments are: UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014 © NXP B.V. 2014. All rights reserved. 436 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 Table 419. CONTROL register bit assignments Bits Name Function [31:2] - Reserved [1] Active stack pointer Defines the current stack: 0 = MSP is the current stack pointer 1 = PSP is the current stack pointer. In Handler mode this bit reads as zero and ignores writes. [0] - Reserved. Handler mode always uses the MSP, so the processor ignores explicit writes to the active stack pointer bit of the CONTROL register when in Handler mode. The exception entry and return mechanisms update the CONTROL register. In an OS environment, it is recommended that threads running in Thread mode use the process stack and the kernel and exception handlers use the main stack. By default, Thread mode uses the MSP. To switch the stack pointer used in Thread mode to the PSP, use the MSR instruction to set the Active stack pointer bit to 1, see Section 24–24.4.7.6. Remark: When changing the stack pointer, software must use an ISB instruction immediately after the MSR instruction. This ensures that instructions after the ISB execute using the new stack pointer. See Section 24–24.4.7.5. 24.3.1.4 Exceptions and interrupts The Cortex-M0 processor supports interrupts and system exceptions. The processor and the Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) prioritize and handle all exceptions. An interrupt or exception changes the normal flow of software control. The processor uses handler mode to handle all exceptions except for reset. See Section 24–24.3.3.6.1 and Section 24–24.3.3.6.2 for more information. The NVIC registers control interrupt handling. See Section 24–24.5.2 for more information. 24.3.1.5 Data types The processor: • supports the following data types: – 32-bit words – 16-bit halfwords – 8-bit bytes • manages all data memory accesses as little-endian. Instruction memory and Private Peripheral Bus (PPB) accesses are always little-endian. See Section 24–24.3.2.1 for more information. 24.3.1.6 The Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard ARM provides the Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard (CMSIS) for programming Cortex-M0 microcontrollers. The CMSIS is an integrated part of the device driver library. UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014 © NXP B.V. 2014. All rights reserved. 437 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 For a Cortex-M0 microcontroller system, CMSIS defines: • a common way to: – access peripheral registers – define exception vectors • the names of: – the registers of the core peripherals – the core exception vectors • a device-independent interface for RTOS kernels. The CMSIS includes address definitions and data structures for the core peripherals in the Cortex-M0 processor. It also includes optional interfaces for middleware components comprising a TCP/IP stack and a Flash file system. The CMSIS simplifies software development by enabling the reuse of template code, and the combination of CMSIS-compliant software components from various middleware vendors. Software vendors can expand the CMSIS to include their peripheral definitions and access functions for those peripherals. This document includes the register names defined by the CMSIS, and gives short descriptions of the CMSIS functions that address the processor core and the core peripherals. Remark: This document uses the register short names defined by the CMSIS. In a few cases these differ from the architectural short names that might be used in other documents. The following sections give more information about the CMSIS: • • • • Section 24.3.5.3 “Power management programming hints” Section 24.4.2 “Intrinsic functions” Section 24.5.2.1 “Accessing the Cortex-M0 NVIC registers using CMSIS” Section 24.5.2.8.1 “NVIC programming hints”. 24.3.2 Memory model This section describes the processor memory map and the behavior of memory accesses. The processor has a fixed memory map that provides up to 4GB of addressable memory. The memory map is: UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

Fig 77. Cortex-M0 memory map The processor reserves regions of the Private peripheral bus (PPB) address range for core peripheral registers, see Section 24–24.2. 24.3.2.1 Memory regions, types and attributes The memory map is split 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, or perform speculative reads. Device — The processor preserves transaction order relative to other transactions to Device or Strongly-ordered memory. UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014 © NXP B.V. 2014. All rights reserved. 439 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 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. The additional memory attributes include. Execute Never (XN) — Means the processor prevents instruction accesses. A HardFault exception is generated on executing an instruction fetched from an XN region of memory. 24.3.2.2 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 any re-ordering 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 Section 24–24.3.2.4. However, the memory system does guarantee some ordering of accesses to Device and Strongly-ordered memory. For two memory access instructions A1 and A2, if A1 occurs before A2 in program order, the ordering of the memory accesses caused by two instructions is: 1RUPDO DFFHVV 1RQVKDUHDEOH 6KDUHDEOH 6WURQJO\ RUGHUHG DFFHVV 1RUPDODFFHVV     'HYLFHDFFHVVQRQVKDUHDEOH     'HYLFHDFFHVVVKDUHDEOH     6WURQJO\RUGHUHGDFFHVV     $ $ 'HYLFHDFFHVV Fig 78. Memory ordering restrictions Where: - — Means that the memory system does not guarantee the ordering of the accesses. < — Means that accesses are observed in program order, that is, A1 is always observed before A2. 24.3.2.3 Behavior of memory accesses The behavior of accesses to each region in the memory map is: UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

The Code, SRAM, and external RAM regions can hold programs. 24.3.2.4 Software ordering of memory accesses The order of instructions in the program flow does not always guarantee the order of the corresponding memory transactions. This is because: • the processor can reorder some memory accesses to improve efficiency, providing this does not affect the behavior of the instruction sequence • memory or devices in the memory map might have different wait states • some memory accesses are buffered or speculative. Section 24–24.3.2.2 describes the cases where the memory system guarantees the order of memory accesses. Otherwise, if the order of memory accesses is critical, software must include memory barrier instructions to force that ordering. The processor provides the following memory barrier instructions: DMB — The Data Memory Barrier (DMB) instruction ensures that outstanding memory transactions complete before subsequent memory transactions. See Section 24–24.4.7.3. DSB — The Data Synchronization Barrier (DSB) instruction ensures that outstanding memory transactions complete before subsequent instructions execute. See Section 24–24.4.7.4. ISB — The Instruction Synchronization Barrier (ISB) ensures that the effect of all completed memory transactions is recognizable by subsequent instructions. See Section 24–24.4.7.5. The following are examples of using memory barrier instructions: UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014 © NXP B.V. 2014. All rights reserved. 441 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 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. This 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. This 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. This ensures subsequent instruction execution uses the updated memory map. Memory accesses to Strongly-ordered memory, such as the System Control Block, do not require the use of DMB instructions. The processor preserves transaction order relative to all other transactions. 24.3.2.5 Memory endianness 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. Section 24–24.3.2.5.1 describes how words of data are stored in memory. 24.3.2.5.1 Little-endian format In little-endian format, the processor stores the least significant byte (lsbyte) of a word at the lowest-numbered byte, and the most significant byte (msbyte) at the highest-numbered byte. For example: 5HJLVWHU 0HPRU\    $GGUHVV $ % $ % $ % $ % OVE\WH   %   %   %  % PVE\WH Fig 79. Little-endian format 24.3.3 Exception model This section describes the exception model. 24.3.3.1 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. UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014 © NXP B.V. 2014. All rights reserved. 442 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 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. 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. 24.3.3.2 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 in Thread mode. NMI — A NonMaskable Interrupt (NMI) can be signalled by a peripheral or triggered by software. This is the highest priority exception other than reset. It is permanently enabled and has a fixed priority of 2. NMIs cannot be: • masked or prevented from activation by any other exception • preempted by any exception other than Reset. HardFault — A HardFault is an exception that occurs because of an error during normal or exception processing. HardFaults have a fixed priority of -1, meaning they have higher priority than any exception with configurable priority. 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. PendSV — PendSV is an interrupt-driven request for system-level service. In an OS environment, use PendSV for context switching when no other exception is active. SysTick — A SysTick exception is an exception the system timer generates when it reaches zero. Software can also generate a SysTick exception. In an OS environment, the processor can use this exception as system tick. Interrupt (IRQ) — An interrupt, or IRQ, is an exception signalled by a peripheral, or generated by a software request. All interrupts are asynchronous to instruction execution. In the system, peripherals use interrupts to communicate with the processor. Table 421.

For an asynchronous exception, other than reset, the processor can execute additional instructions between when the exception is triggered and when the processor enters the exception handler. Privileged software can disable the exceptions that Table 24–421 shows as having configurable priority, see Section 24–24.5.2.3. For more information about HardFaults, see Section 24–24.3.4. 24.3.3.3 Exception handlers The processor handles exceptions using: Interrupt Service Routines (ISRs) — Interrupts IRQ0 to IRQ31 are the exceptions handled by ISRs. Fault handler — HardFault is the only exception handled by the fault handler. System handlers — NMI, PendSV, SVCall SysTick, and HardFault are all system exceptions handled by system handlers. 24.3.3.4 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. Figure 24–80 shows the order of the exception vectors in the vector table. The least-significant bit of each vector must be 1, indicating that the exception handler is written in Thumb code.

Vector table The vector table is fixed at address 0x00000000. 24.3.3.5 Exception priorities As Table 24–421 shows, all exceptions have an associated priority, with: • a lower priority value indicating a higher priority • configurable priorities for all exceptions except Reset, HardFault, 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 • Section 24–24.5.3.7 • Section 24–24.5.2.6. Configurable priority values are in the range 0-192, in steps of 64. The Reset, HardFault, and NMI exceptions, with fixed negative priority values, always have higher priority than any other exception.

All rights reserved. 445 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 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. 24.3.3.6 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. When one exception preempts another, the exceptions are called nested exceptions. See Section 24–24.3.3.6.1 for more information. Return — This occurs when the exception handler is completed, and: • there is no pending exception with sufficient priority to be serviced • 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 Section 24–24.3.3.6.2 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 arrival because the state saved would be the same for both exceptions. On return from the exception handler of the late-arriving exception, the normal tail-chaining rules apply. 24.3.3.6.1 Exception entry Exception entry occurs when there is a pending exception with sufficient priority and either: • the processor is in Thread mode • the new exception is of higher priority than the exception being handled, in which case the new exception preempts the exception being handled. When one exception preempts another, the exceptions are nested. UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014 © NXP B.V. 2014. All rights reserved. 446 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 Sufficient priority means the exception has greater priority than any limit set by the mask register, see Section 24–24.3.1.3.6. 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 as a stack frame. The stack frame contains the following information: 'HFUHDVLQJ PHPRU\ DGGUHVV 63[& 63[ 63[ 63[ 63[& 63[ 63[ 63[ SUHYLRXV! [365 3& /5 5 5 5 5 5 63SRLQWVKHUHEHIRUHLQWHUUXSW 63SRLQWVKHUHDIWHULQWHUUXSW Fig 81. Exception entry stack contents Immediately after stacking, the stack pointer indicates the lowest address in the stack frame. The stack frame is aligned to a double-word address. The stack frame includes the return address. This 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. 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. This indicates 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, the processor starts executing the exception handler for this exception and does not change the pending status of the earlier exception. This is the late arrival case. 24.3.3.6.2 Exception return Exception return occurs when the processor is in Handler mode and execution of one of the following instructions attempts to set the PC to an EXC_RETURN value: • a POP instruction that loads the PC • a BX instruction using any register. The processor saves an EXC_RETURN value to the LR on exception entry. The exception mechanism relies on this value to detect when the processor has completed an exception handler. Bits[31:4] of an EXC_RETURN value are 0xFFFFFFF. When the processor loads a value matching this pattern to the PC it detects that the operation is a UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

Therefore, it starts the exception return sequence. Bits[3:0] of the EXC_RETURN value indicate the required return stack and processor mode, as Table 24–422 shows. Table 422.

Exception return gets state from MSP. Execution uses MSP after return. 0xFFFFFFFD Return to Thread mode. Exception return gets state from PSP. Execution uses PSP after return. All other values Reserved. 24.3.4 Fault handling Faults are a subset of exceptions, see Section 24–24.3.3. All faults result in the HardFault exception being taken or cause lockup if they occur in the NMI or HardFault handler. The faults are: • • • • • • • • execution of an SVC instruction at a priority equal or higher than SVCall execution of a BKPT instruction without a debugger attached a system-generated bus error on a load or store execution of an instruction from an XN memory address execution of an instruction from a location for which the system generates a bus fault a system-generated bus error on a vector fetch execution of an Undefined instruction execution of an instruction when not in Thumb-State as a result of the T-bit being previously cleared to 0 • an attempted load or store to an unaligned address. Only Reset and NMI can preempt the fixed priority HardFault handler. A HardFault can preempt any exception other than Reset, NMI, or another hard fault. 24.3.4.1 Lockup The processor enters a lockup state if a fault occurs when executing the NMI or HardFault handlers, or if the system generates a bus error when unstacking the PSR on an exception return using the MSP. When the processor is in lockup state it does not execute any instructions. The processor remains in lockup state until one of the following occurs: • it is reset • a debugger halts it • an NMI occurs and the current lockup is in the HardFault handler.

All rights reserved. 448 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 If lockup state occurs in the NMI handler a subsequent NMI does not cause the processor to leave lockup state. 24.3.5 Power management The Cortex-M0 processor sleep modes reduce power consumption: • a sleep mode, that stops the processor clock • a Deep-sleep and Power-down modes, for details see Section 3.9. The SLEEPDEEP bit of the SCR selects which sleep mode is used, see Section 24–24.5.3.5. This section describes the mechanisms for entering sleep mode, and the conditions for waking up from sleep mode. 24.3.5.1 Entering sleep mode This section describes the mechanisms software can use to put the processor into sleep mode. 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 in to sleep mode. 24.3.5.1.1 Wait for interrupt The Wait For Interrupt instruction, WFI, causes immediate entry to sleep mode. When the processor executes a WFI instruction it stops executing instructions and enters sleep mode. See Section 24–24.4.7.12 for more information. 24.3.5.1.2 Wait for event Remark: The WFE instruction is not implemented on the LPC11U3x/2x/1x. 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 value of the event register: 0 — The processor stops executing instructions and enters sleep mode 1 — The processor sets the register to zero and continues executing instructions without entering sleep mode. See Section 24–24.4.7.11 for more information. If the event register is 1, this indicates that the processor must not enter sleep mode on execution of a WFE instruction. Typically, this is because of the assertion of an external event, or because another processor in the system has executed a SEV instruction, see Section 24–24.4.7.9. Software cannot access this register directly. UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 5.3 — 11 June 2014 © NXP B.V. 2014. All rights reserved. 449 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 24.3.5.1.3 Sleep-on-exit If the SLEEPONEXIT bit of the SCR is set to 1, when the processor completes the execution of an exception handler and returns to Thread mode it immediately enters sleep mode. Use this mechanism in applications that only require the processor to run when an interrupt occurs. 24.3.5.2 Wake-up from sleep mode The conditions for the processor to wake-up depend on the mechanism that caused it to enter sleep mode. 24.3.5.2.1 Wake-up from WFI or sleep-on-exit Normally, the processor wakes up only when it 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 it executes an interrupt handler. To achieve this set the PRIMASK bit to 1. 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 sets PRIMASK to zero. For more information about PRIMASK, see Section 24–24.3.1.3.6. 24.3.5.2.2 Wake-up from WFE The processor wakes up if: • it detects an exception with sufficient priority to cause exception entry • in a multiprocessor system, another processor in the system executes a SEV instruction. In addition, if the SEVONPEND bit in the SCR is set to 1, 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 the SCR see Section 24–24.5.3.5. 24.3.5.3 Power management programming hints ISO/IEC C cannot directly generate the WFI, WFE, and SEV instructions.

Instructions act on the operands and often store the result in a destination register. When there is a destination register in the instruction, it is usually specified before the other operands. 24.4.3.2 Restrictions when using PC or SP Many instructions are unable to use, or have restrictions on whether you can use, the Program Counter (PC) or Stack Pointer (SP) for the operands or destination register. See instruction descriptions for more information. Remark: When you update the PC with a BX, BLX, or POP instruction, bit[0] of any address must be 1 for correct execution. This is because this bit indicates the destination instruction set, and the Cortex-M0 processor only supports Thumb instructions. When a BL or BLX instruction writes the value of bit[0] into the LR it is automatically assigned the value 1.

Register shift can be performed directly by the instructions ASR, LSR, LSL, and ROR and the result is written to a destination register.The permitted shift lengths depend on the shift type and the instruction, see the individual instruction description. If the shift length is 0, no shift occurs. Register shift operations update the carry flag except when the specified shift length is 0. The following sub-sections describe the various shift operations and how they affect the carry flag. In these descriptions, Rm is the register containing the value to be shifted, and n is the shift length. 24.4.3.3.1 ASR Arithmetic shift right by n bits moves the left-hand 32 -n bits of the register Rm, to the right by n places, into the right-hand 32 -n bits of the result, and it copies the original bit[31] of the register into the left-hand n bits of the result. See Figure 24–82. You can use the ASR operation to divide the signed value in the register Rm by 2n, with the result being rounded towards negative-infinity. When the instruction is ASRS the carry flag is updated to the last bit shifted out, bit[n-1], of the register Rm. Remark: • If n is 32 or more, then all the bits in the result are set to the value of bit[31] of Rm. • If n is 32 or more and the carry flag is updated, it is updated to the value of bit[31] of Rm. &DUU\ )ODJ         Fig 82. ASR #3 24.4.3.3.2 LSR Logical shift right by n bits moves the left-hand 32-n bits of the register Rm, to the right by n places, into the right-hand 32 -n bits of the result, and it sets the left-hand n bits of the result to 0. See Figure 83. You can use the LSR operation to divide the value in the register Rm by 2n, if the value is regarded as an unsigned integer.

ROR #3 24.4.3.4 Address alignment An aligned access is an operation where a word-aligned address is used for a word, or multiple word access, or where a halfword-aligned address is used for a halfword access. Byte accesses are always aligned. There is no support for unaligned accesses on the Cortex-M0 processor. Any attempt to perform an unaligned memory access operation results in a HardFault exception. 24.4.3.5 PC-relative expressions A PC-relative expression or label is a symbol that represents the address of an instruction or literal data. It is represented in the instruction as the PC value plus or minus a numeric offset. The assembler calculates the required offset from the label and the address of the current instruction. If the offset is too big, the assembler produces an error. Remark: • For most instructions, the value of the PC is the address of the current instruction plus 4 bytes. • Your assembler might permit other syntaxes for PC-relative expressions, such as a label plus or minus a number, or an expression of the form [PC, #imm]. 24.4.3.6 Conditional execution Most data processing instructions update the condition flags in the Application Program Status Register (APSR) according to the result of the operation, see Section . Some instructions update all flags, and some only update a subset. If a flag is not updated, the original value is preserved. See the instruction descriptions for the flags they affect. You can execute a conditional branch instruction, based on the condition flags set in another instruction, either: • immediately after the instruction that updated the flags • after any number of intervening instructions that have not updated the flags.

All rights reserved. 457 of 521 UM10462 NXP Semiconductors Chapter 24: LPC11U3x/2x/1x Appendix ARM Cortex-M0 On the Cortex-M0 processor, conditional execution is available by using conditional branches. This section describes: • Section 24.4.3.6.1 “The condition flags” • Section 24.4.3.6.2 “Condition code suffixes”. 24.4.3.6.1 The condition flags The APSR contains the following condition flags: N — Set to 1 when the result of the operation was negative, cleared to 0 otherwise. Z — Set to 1 when the result of the operation was zero, cleared to 0 otherwise. C — Set to 1 when the operation resulted in a carry, cleared to 0 otherwise. V — Set to 1 when the operation caused overflow, cleared to 0 otherwise. For more information about the APSR see Section 24–24.3.1.3.5. A carry occurs: • if the result of an addition is greater than or equal to 232 • if the result of a subtraction is positive or zero • as the result of a shift or rotate instruction. Overflow occurs when the sign of the result, in bit[31], does not match the sign of the result had the operation been performed at infinite precision, for example: • • • • if adding two negative values results in a positive value if adding two positive values results in a negative value if subtracting a positive value from a negative value generates a positive value if subtracting a negative value from a positive value generates a negative value. The Compare operations are identical to subtracting, for CMP, or adding, for CMN, except that the result is discarded. See the instruction descriptions for more information. 24.4.3.6.2 Condition code suffixes Conditional branch is shown in syntax descriptions as B{cond}. A branch instruction with a condition code is only taken if the condition code flags in the APSR meet the specified condition, otherwise the branch instruction is ignored. shows the condition codes to use. Table 426 also shows the relationship between condition code suffixes and the N, Z, C, and V flags. Table 426. Condition code suffixes UM10462 User manual Suffix Flags Meaning EQ Z=1 Equal, last flag setting result was zero NE Z=0 Not equal, last flag setting result was non-zero CS or HS C=1 Higher or same, unsigned CC or LO C=0 Lower, unsigned MI N=1 Negative All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

It can contain register ranges. It must be comma separated if it contains more than one register or register range, see Section 24–24.4.4.5.5. LDMIA and LDMFD are synonyms for LDM. LDMIA refers to the base register being Incremented After each access. LDMFD refers to its use for popping data from Full Descending stacks. STMIA and STMEA are synonyms for STM. STMIA refers to the base register being Incremented After each access. STMEA refers to its use for pushing data onto Empty Ascending stacks. 24.4.4.5.2 Operation LDM instructions load the registers in reglist with word values from memory addresses based on Rn. STM instructions store the word values in the registers in reglist to memory addresses based on Rn. The memory addresses used for the accesses are at 4-byte intervals ranging from the value in the register specified by Rn to the value in the register specified by Rn + 4 * (n-1), where n is the number of registers in reglist. The accesses happens in order of increasing register numbers, with the lowest numbered register using the lowest memory address and the highest number register using the highest memory address. If the writeback suffix is specified, the value in the register specified by Rn + 4 *n is written back to the register specified by Rn. 24.4.4.5.3 Restrictions In these instructions: • reglist and Rn are limited to R0-R7. • the writeback suffix must always be used unless the instruction is an LDM where reglist also contains Rn, in which case the writeback suffix must not be used. • the value in the register specified by Rn must be word aligned. See Section 24–24.4.3.4 for more information. • for STM, if Rn appears in reglist, then it must be the first register in the list. 24.4.4.5.4 Condition flags These instructions do not change the flags.

It must be comma separated if it contains more than one register or register range. 24.4.4.6.2 Operation PUSH stores registers on the stack, with the lowest numbered register using the lowest memory address and the highest numbered register using the highest memory address. POP loads registers from the stack, with the lowest numbered register using the lowest memory address and the highest numbered register using the highest memory address. PUSH uses the value in the SP register minus four as the highest memory address, POP uses the value in the SP register as the lowest memory address, implementing a full-descending stack. On completion, PUSH updates the SP register to point to the location of the lowest store value, POP updates the SP register to point to the location above the highest location loaded. If a POP instruction includes PC in its reglist, a branch to this location is performed when the POP instruction has completed. Bit[0] of the value read for the PC is used to update the APSR T-bit. This bit must be 1 to ensure correct operation. 24.4.4.6.3 Restrictions In these instructions: • reglist must use only R0-R7. • The exception is LR for a PUSH and PC for a POP. 24.4.4.6.4 Condition flags These instructions do not change the flags.

Rm is the register to compare with. imm is the immediate value to compare with. 24.4.5.4.2 Operation These instructions compare the value in a register with either the value in another register or an immediate value. They update the condition flags on the result, but do not write the result to a register. The CMP instruction subtracts either the value in the register specified by Rm, or the immediate imm from the value in Rn and updates the flags. This is the same as a SUBS instruction, except that the result is discarded. The CMN instruction adds the value of Rm to the value in Rn and updates the flags. This is the same as an ADDS instruction, except that the result is discarded. 24.4.5.4.3 Restrictions For the: • CMN instruction Rn, and Rm must only specify R0-R7. • CMP instruction: – Rn and Rm can specify R0-R14 – immediate must be in the range 0-255. 24.4.5.4.4 Condition flags These instructions update the N, Z, C and V flags according to the result. 24.4.5.4.5 Examples CMP R2, R9 CMN R0, R2 24.4.5.5 MOV and MVN Move and Move NOT. 24.4.5.5.1 Syntax MOV{S} Rd, Rm MOVS Rd, #imm MVNS Rd, Rm where: S is an optional suffix. If S is specified, the condition code flags are updated on the result of the operation, see Section 24–24.4.3.6. Rd is the destination register.

The MOVS instruction performs the same operation as the MOV instruction, but also updates the N and Z flags. The MVNS instruction takes the value of Rm, performs a bitwise logical negate operation on the value, and places the result into Rd. 24.4.5.5.3 Restrictions In these instructions, Rd, and Rm must only specify R0-R7. When Rd is the PC in a MOV instruction: • Bit[0] of the result is discarded. • A branch occurs to the address created by forcing bit[0] of the result to 0. The T-bit remains unmodified. Remark: Though it is possible to use MOV as a branch instruction, ARM strongly recommends the use of a BX or BLX instruction to branch for software portability. 24.4.5.5.4 Condition flags If S is specified, these instructions: • update the N and Z flags according to the result • do not affect the C or V flags. 24.4.5.5.5 Example MOVS R0, #0x000B ; Write value of 0x000B to R0, flags get updated MOVS R1, #0x0 ; Write value of zero to R1, flags are updated MOV R10, R12 ; Write value in R12 to R10, flags are not updated MOVS R3, #23 ; Write value of 23 to R3 MOV R8, SP ; Write value of stack pointer to R8 MVNS R2, R0 ; Write inverse of R0 to the R2 and update flags 24.4.5.6 MULS Multiply using 32-bit operands, and producing a 32-bit result. 24.4.5.6.1 Syntax MULS Rd, Rn, Rm where: Rd is the destination register.

RO — Read-only. WO — Write-only. 24.5.2 Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller This section describes the Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) and the registers it uses. The NVIC supports: • 32 interrupts. • A programmable priority level of 0-3 for each interrupt. A higher level corresponds to a lower priority, so level 0 is the highest interrupt priority. • Level and pulse detection of interrupt signals. • Interrupt tail-chaining. • An external Non-maskable interrupt (NMI). The processor automatically stacks its state on exception entry and unstacks this state on exception exit, with no instruction overhead. This provides low latency exception handling.

IRQn)[1] uint32_t NVIC_GetPendingIRQ(IRQn_Type Clears the pending status of interrupt or exception to 0. IRQn)[1] Reads the pending status of interrupt or exception. This function returns non-zero value if the pending status is set to 1. void NVIC_SetPriority(IRQn_Type IRQn, uint32_t priority)[1] Sets the priority of an interrupt or exception with configurable priority level to 1. uint32_t NVIC_GetPriority(IRQn_Type IRQn)[1] [1] Reads the priority of an interrupt or exception with configurable priority level. This function returns the current priority level. The input parameter IRQn is the IRQ number, see Table 421 for more information. 24.5.2.2 Interrupt Set-enable Register The ISER enables interrupts, and shows which interrupts are enabled. See the register summary in Table 434 for the register attributes. The bit assignments are: Table 436. ISER bit assignments Bits Name Function [31:0] SETENA Interrupt set-enable bits. Write: 0 = no effect 1 = enable interrupt. Read: 0 = interrupt disabled 1 = interrupt enabled. 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. 24.5.2.3 Interrupt Clear-enable Register The ICER disables interrupts, and show which interrupts are enabled.

These registers are only word-accessible. See the register summary in Table 24–434 for their attributes. Each register holds four priority fields as shown:    35,B 35,B Q 35,B Q 35,B 35,B ,35  35,B 35,B 35,B Q 35,B Q 35,B 35,B   ,35Q    35,B  ,35   Fig 86. IPR register Table 440. IPR bit assignments Bits Name Function [31:24] Priority, byte offset 3 [23:16] Priority, byte offset 2 [15:8] Priority, byte offset 1 Each priority field holds a priority value, 0-3. The lower the value, the greater the priority of the corresponding interrupt. The processor implements only bits[7:6] of each field, bits [5:0] read as zero and ignore writes. [7:0] Priority, byte offset 0 See Section 24–24.5.2.1 for more information about the access to the interrupt priority array, which provides the software view of the interrupt priorities. Find the IPR number and byte offset for interrupt M as follows: • the corresponding IPR number, N, is given by N = N DIV 4 • the byte offset of the required Priority field in this register is M MOD 4, where: – byte offset 0 refers to register bits[7:0] – byte offset 1 refers to register bits[15:8] – byte offset 2 refers to register bits[23:16] – byte offset 3 refers to register bits[31:24]. 24.5.2.7 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 UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

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 Section 24.5.2.7.1. 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. This means that the peripheral can hold the interrupt signal asserted until it no longer needs servicing. 24.5.2.7.1 Hardware and software control of interrupts The Cortex-M0 latches all interrupts. A peripheral interrupt becomes pending for one of the following reasons: • the NVIC detects that the interrupt signal is active and the corresponding interrupt is not active • the NVIC detects a rising edge on the interrupt signal • software writes to the corresponding interrupt set-pending register bit, see Section 24–24.5.2.4. A pending interrupt remains pending until one of the following: • The processor enters the ISR for the interrupt. This changes 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, state of the interrupt changes to: – inactive, if the state was pending – active, if the state was active and pending. 24.5.2.8 NVIC usage hints and tips Ensure software uses correctly aligned register accesses. The processor does not support unaligned accesses to NVIC registers. An interrupt can enter pending state even if it is disabled. Disabling an interrupt only prevents the processor from taking that interrupt. UM10462 User manual All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

Read: 0 = NMI exception is not pending 1 = NMI exception is pending. Because NMI is the highest-priority exception, normally the processor enters the NMI exception handler as soon as it detects a write of 1 to this bit. Entering the handler then clears this bit to 0. This means a read of this bit by the NMI exception handler returns 1 only if the NMI signal is reasserted while the processor is executing that handler. [30:29] - - Reserved.

[1] This is the same value as IPSR bits[5:0], see Table 24–416. When you write to the ICSR, the effect is Unpredictable if you: • write 1 to the PENDSVSET bit and write 1 to the PENDSVCLR bit • write 1 to the PENDSTSET bit and write 1 to the PENDSTCLR bit. 24.5.3.4 Application Interrupt and Reset Control Register The AIRCR provides endian status for data accesses and reset control of the system. See the register summary in Table 24–442 and Table 24–445 for its attributes. To write to this register, you must write 0x05FA to the VECTKEY field, otherwise the processor ignores the write.

SHPR2-SHPR3 are word accessible. See the register summary in Table 24–442 for their attributes. To access to the system exception priority level using CMSIS, use the following CMSIS functions: • uint32_t NVIC_GetPriority(IRQn_Type IRQn) • void NVIC_SetPriority(IRQn_Type IRQn, uint32_t priority) The input parameter IRQn is the IRQ number, see Table 24–421 for more information.

Writing a value of zero to the SYST_RVR disables the counter on the next wrap. When the counter transitions to zero, the COUNTFLAG status bit is set to 1. Reading SYST_CSR clears the COUNTFLAG bit to 0. Writing to the SYST_CVR clears the register and the COUNTFLAG status bit to 0. The write does not trigger the SysTick exception logic. Reading the register returns its value at the time it is accessed. Remark: When the processor is halted for debugging the counter does not decrement. The system timer registers are: Table 451.

Calculating the RELOAD value The RELOAD value can be any value in the range 0x00000001-0x00FFFFFF. You can program a value of 0, but this has no effect because the SysTick exception request and COUNTFLAG are activated when counting from 1 to 0. To generate a multi-shot timer with a period of N processor clock cycles, use a RELOAD value of N-1. For example, if the SysTick interrupt is required every 100 clock pulses, set RELOAD to 99. 24.5.4.3 SysTick Current Value Register The SYST_CVR contains the current value of the SysTick counter.
