  5. Which of these does not send data in a serial stream? USB Fiber Optic Cable Ethernet Parallel Port HDMI Serial Port

  6. Which type should I use?

  7. Parallel Communication Issues Parallel communication is faster than serial for short distances • Issues with parallel communication: • Inter-symbol interference (ISI) and noisecause corruption over long distances • Wires have small amounts of capacitance and mutual inductance • Bandwidth of parallel wires is much lower than bandwidth of serial wires

  8. Serial Communication for Long Distances • Why serial connection is better for long distances: • Differential signals are used to increase power • Double the signal to noise ratio (SNR) • Reach higher bitrate without noise • USB 2.0 is capable of 480Mbits/sec! • (At this rate, it would take only 46.5 seconds to transfer a 2.19GB BluRay movie over from a hard drive) Differential Signal Fun Fact: Longest ever deep sea Fiber-Optic cable will run through thawing artic between UK and Japan (that’s 9,693 miles of cable!)

  9. Synchronous vs. Asynchronous Communication Synchronous Serial Transmission Asynchronous Serial Transmission • Stream of data is encoded in chunks • Various bytes at the beginning of the data provide an embedded clock • The data stream can also be synchronized by an external clock • Data transmitted one character at a time • Each character contains its own clock • Start bits and stop bits • Resynchronizes with each character

  10. Synchronous Communication Synchronous used for high-speed communication between computers Synchronous Serial Transmission • Advantages • Amount of transmission information restricted to few characters for each block • Not prone to distortion • Can be used at higher speeds • Disadvantages • If error were to occur, whole block of data is lost (100+characters) • User cannot transmit characters instantaneously • Requires storage

  11. Asynchronous Communication Used for speeds up to 3000 bits/second with only simple single-character error detection Asynchronous Serial Transmission • Advantages • Each character is its own complete timer system • Corruption will not spread • Good for irregular interval character generation • Keyboards • Disadvantages • Dependence on recognition of start bits • Many bits are used only for control purpose and carry no useful information • Limits transmission speed

  12. Data Word and Control Bits Asynchronous Serial Transmission • Start Bit • Signals start of transmission of data bits • Transition from logic 1 to logic 0 • Data Bits • Typically 8 data bits (not including parity bit) • Least significant bit is transmitted and received first • Stop Bit • Signals end of data word

  13. BAUD Rates • The rate at which symbols are sent • Measured in symbols per second (Bd) • Also known as baud or modulation rate • Often incorrectly referred to as bits per second • Important Baud Variables • Bd – Baud rate • M – Number of symbols used (voltages, tones, etc) • Number of symbols used (M) = 2N where N = bits / symbol • N – Bits per symbol (binary = 1)

  14. Bit Rates • The rate at which bits are transmitted • Baud * Bits / Symbol • Measured in bits per second (bps) NOT bytes per second (Bps) • Often incorrectly referred to as data rate • Gross Bit Rate – total number of bits transmitted per second • Includes protocol overhead bits and data bits • Rb = 1 / Tb where Tb is the bit transmission time • Symbol Rate ≤ Gross Bit Rate • Only equal when 2 bits per symbol (binary) • Information Rate– rate at which useful data is transmitted • Information rate ≤ Gross Bit Rate • Unless there is no protocol (risky!) • IR = Rb * Data Bit Number / Total Bit Number

  15. Baud Rates Examples • Symbol Number (M) • Analog modem capable 64 different voltage levels (symbols) sends out how many bits per symbol? • M = 65 = 2N. N = 6 bits per symbol • Baud Rate • A baud rate of 100 Baud = 100 symbols / second • Bit Rate • At 9,600 Baud with 3 voltage levels what is the bits per second? • Bits • BPS = 9,600 * 1.5850 = 15,216 bps • Information Rate • Given a protocol with 3 bits of protocol, 8 bits of data, 9600 baud, and 1 bit per symbol (binary) what is the IR? • IR = 9600 * log2(2) * 8/11 = 6981 data bits per second

  16. Asynchronous Serial Transmission • Overhead Bits • Start bit – Start of “frame” bit • Parity Bit – Error check bit • Stop Bits – End of “frame” bit • Data Bit – the actual data

  17. Start Bit • One bit • The first bit of a serial data word • Signals the start of data transmission • Detected as a transition from the idle state to the active state • Referred to as a “mark-to-space” transition • Idle state for HCS12 is high (“1”) • Active state for HCS12 is low (“0”)

  18. Parity Bit • One bit • Used as a crude form of error detection • Even / Odd / No Parity • Even – Start Bit + Data Bits + Stop Bits + Parity = 0 • Odd – Start Bit + Data Bits + Stop Bits + Parity = 1 • None – No parity bit included • IMPORTANT: for this class, simply count Data Bits + Parity Bit • Calculated by transmitter, checked by receiver • User specified on the HCS12

  19. Stop Bits • One+ bits • Indicate the end of transmission • Usually 1 or 2 idle state bits • One stop bit on the HCS12

  20. Data BitS • Number of data bits established by protocol • Common Transmission Mode • 7 bits of data + 1 parity bit = 8 total data bits • Other Mode • 8 bits of data (full byte) + 1 parity bit = 9 total data bits • Bit order is hardware dependent • HCS12 sends LSB first

  21. Example • Sending #$AB with one start bit, one stop bit, even parity, and 8 bit data • Binary is #%1010 1011 • Parity Bit is 0 : 0+1+0+1+0+1+0+1+1+P+1 = EVEN Parity Bit 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 Start Bit Stop Bit Data Bits Direction of Transmission

  22. Transmission Errors • Noise – Noisy signals cause bits to “flip” • Overrun – Slow receivers cause loss of data • Framing Error – Timing errors cause issues

  23. Noise • Noise can cause “1” to appear to be “0” and vice verse • Effect lessened by sampling

  24. Noise • Each bit after start bit is sampled X pules after center of start bit. X depends on the mode (1,16, and 64)

  25. Overrun • Very simple concept • Receiver doesn’t read data in SCI data register fast enough • New data lost

  26. Framing Error • The result of reading incoming bits using the wrong starting point • Can be detected by using the parity bit • Often the result of mismatched baud rates

  27. SCI Block Diagram

  28. SCI module on the HCS12Billy Allen • The SCI Module communicates over PS1 (Tx) and PS0 (Rx). • Writing to the SCI Data Registers transmits data over the Tx line. • Incoming Rx data is automatically stored in the SCI Data Register. • Flags in the SCI Status Registers can be used to trigger interrupts.

  29. Overview of SCI Registers

  30. SCI Data Registers • $00CE • $00CF • Reading from this register accesses the data received by the SCI receiver. • Writing to this register transmits the data through the SCI. • T8 and R8 are the 9th data bit when the SCI is in 9-bit mode. • R0-R7 is the data received by the SCI.

  31. Setting the Baud Rate • Writing to SCBIR to set the Baud Rate: • $00C8 • $00C9 • Baud rate = SCI module clock / (16 * SCIBR[12:0])

  32. Setting the Baud Rate • Example: To achieve a baud rate of 9600 with an 8MHz module clock: • LDX #0052 (loads 52 into X) • STX $00C8 (stores X into the SCIBR Registers $00C8 and $00C9) • Note that due to the way the baud rate is calculated, there will be some error in the actual rate that the 12C32 uses. • This example actually yields a baud rate of 9615, but that error (0.156%) is small enough to be safely ignored.

  33. SCI Control Register 1 • $00CA • LOOPS: If set to 1, connects the output of TX to the input of RX. • SCISWAI: If set to 1, disabled the SCI while in wait mode. • RSRC: If LOOPS = 1, RSRC selects the source of the incoming TX signal. • If RSRC = 0, the receiver is connected to the transmitter internally. • If RSRC = 1, the receiver is connected to an external TX signal. • M: Controls the number of data bits. • If M = 0, the SCI uses one start bit, eight data bits, one stop bit. • If M = 1, the SCI uses one start bit, nine data bits, one stop bit.

  34. SCI Control Register 1 • $00CA • WAKE: Defines the input condition that wakes up the receiver. • If WAKE = 0, an idle input (0) will wake up the receiver. • If WAKE = 1, a high input (1) wakes up the receiver. • ILT: Defines when the SCI starts counting to wait for idle bits. • If ILT = 0, the counter begins when the start bit is sensed. • If ILT = 1, the counter begins when the stop bit is sensed. • PE: If PE = 1, a parity bit is added to the data being transferred. • PT: Defines how the parity bit it set. • If PE = 0, parity bit it set for ODD parity. • If PE = 1, parity bit is set for EVEN parity.

  35. SCI Control Register 2 • $00CB • TIE: If TIE = 1, the Transmit Data Register Empty flag, TDRE, can generate interrupt requests. • TCIE: If TCIE = 1, the Transmission Complete flag, TC, can generate interrupt requests. • RIE: If RIE = 1, the Receive Data Register Full flag, RDRF, or the OverRunflag, OR, can generate interrupt requests. • ILIE: If ILIE = 1, the idle line flag, IDLE, can generate interrupt requests.

  36. SCI Control Register 2 • $00CB • TE: Transmitter Enable. If TE = 1, the transmitter is enabled. • RE: Receiver Enable. If RE = 1, the receiver is enabled. • RWU: Receiver Wakeup Bit. If RWU = 1, the SCI goes into a standby state and will not trigger interrupt requests until it wakes up from an external signal. • SBK: Sent Break Bit. If SBK = 1, sends a pattern of break characters on the TX line.

  37. SCI Status Register 1 • $00CC • TDRE: Transmit Data Register Empty Flag • This is set to 1 if the transmit data register becomes empty. • TC: Transmit Complete Flag • This is set to 1 if the transmission is done and nothing new is being sent. • RDRF: Receive Data Register Full Flag • Set to 1 if there is received data available in the SCI data register. • IDLE: Idle Line Flag • Set to 1 if 10 or 11 consecutive logic 1 signals appear on the receiver input line.

  38. SCI Status Register 1 • $00CC • OR: OverRun Flag • Is set to 1 if the software fails to read the contents of the data register before the shift register receives more data. • NF: Noise Flag • Is set to 1 if the SCI detects noise on the receiver input. • FE: Framing Error Flag • Is set to 1 If the SCI detects that a framing error has occurred. • PF: Parity Error Flag • Is set to 1 if the parity bit is incorrect.

  39. SCI Status Register 2 • $00CD • BK13: Break Transmit Character Length • Defines the length of the break character used. • If BK13 = 0, break character is 10 or 11 bits long. • If BK13 = 1, break character is 13 or 14 bits long. • TXDIR: Transmitter Pin Data Direction in Single-wire mode • If single wire mode is active, this controls the data direction for TXD. • If TXDIR = 0, TXD is an input. • If TXDIR = 1, TXD is an output. • RAF: Receiver Active Flag • This is set to 1 if the receiver is currently receiving data.

  40. Data Transmit Example • After a short delay, send the value $AB over the Tx line with an ODD parity bit .

  41. Data Receive Example • Wait until data is received on Rx, then load it into Accumulator X.
