3.9 SSP
STA8135G has one synchronous serial ports (SSPs). The SSP is a master or slave interface that enables synchronous serial communication with slave or master peripherals having one of the following:
- Serial peripheral interface bus standards
- Synchronous serial protocol bus standards
- Micro-wire interface bus standards
- Unidirectional interface In both master and slave configurations, the SSP has the following features:
- Parallel-to-serial conversion on data written to an internal 32-bit wide, 32-location deep transmit FIFO
- Serial-to-parallel conversion on received data, buffering it in a 32-bit wide, 32-location deep receive FIFO
- Programmable data frame size from 4 to 32 bits
- Programmable clock bit rate and pre-scaler
- Programmable clock phase and polarity in SPI mode
- Support for direct memory access (DMA)
3.10 UART
The UARTx performs serial-to-parallel conversion on data asynchronously received from a peripheral device on UARTx_RX pin, and parallel-to-serial conversion on data written by CPU for transmission on UARTx_TX pin. The transmit and receive paths are buffered with internal FIFO memories allowing up to 64 data byte for transmission, and 64 data byte with 4-bit status (break, frame, parity, and overrun) to receive. FIFOs may be burst-loaded or emptied by the system processor or DMA, from one to sixteen words per transfer.
3.11 Watchdog timer (WDT)
Watchdog timer (WDT) provides a way of recovering from software crashes. The watchdog clock is used to generate a regular interrupt (Irq_wdt), depending on a programmed value. The watchdog monitors the interrupt and asserts a reset signal (WDOGRES) if the interrupt remains unserviced for the entire programmed period. The WDT is counting down at a fixed frequency of 32.768 kHz. The watchdog timer peripheral can be used as free-running timer or as watchdog to resolve processor malfunctions due to hardware or software failures. Feature set overview:
- 16-bit down counter
- 8-bit clock pre-scaler
- Safe reload sequence
- Free-running timer mode
- End of counting interrupt generation STA8135G General description DS14788 - Rev 1 page 16/41
3.12 GPIO
There are 34 GPIOs in this device. The GPIO block provides programmable inputs or outputs. Each input or output can be controlled in two modes:
- Software mode through an APB bus interface
- Alternate function mode, where GPIO becomes a peripheral input or output line Any GPIO input can be independently enabled or disabled (masked) for interrupt generation. User can select for each GPIO which edge (rising, falling, both) will trigger an interrupt. A de-bouncing logic can be enabled for each GPIO to filter glitches on IOs before going to the Interrupt generation and CPU read value. All GPIOs are fail safe to avoid leakage consumption in any condition even when the ring is off and the external line is logic level high.
3.13 Multi timer unit (MTU)
Multi timer unit consists of eight timers. Each timer is clocked by MXTAL frequency divided by 8 (which means 2.4 MHz with a 19.2 MHz crystal) or REFCLK (32.768 kHz) inputs.
3.13.1 MTU feature overview
- The Multi timer unit provides access to four interrupt generating programmable 32-bit free-running decrementing counters (FRCs) allowing up to four counts to be performed in parallel.
- The FRCs have their own clock input, allowing the counters to run from a much slower clock than the system clock.
- In each FRC the 32-bit counter is split up into two 16-bit counters.
3.14 RTC
This is an always-on power domain dedicated to RTC logic (backup system) with 256 bytes SRAM and supplied with a dedicated voltage regulator. The RTC provides a high resolution clock which can be used for GPS. It keeps the time when the system is inactive and can be used to wake up the system when a programmed alarm time is reached. It has a clock trimming feature to compensate for the accuracy of the 32.768 kHz crystal and a secured time update. RTC features:
- 47-bit counter clocked by 32.768 kHz clock
- 32-bit for the integer part (seconds) and 15-bit for the fractional part
- The integer part and the fractional part are readable independently
- The counter, once enabled, can be stopped
- Integer part load register (32-bit)
- Fractional part load register (15-bit)
- Load bit to transfer the content of the entire load register (integer + fractional part) to the 47-bit counter Once set by the MCU this bit is cleared by the hardware to signal to the MCU that the RTC has been updated.
3.15 MSP
STA8135G has one multi mode serial port (MSP). The following section describes the functionalities of the MSP unit. The multi mode serial port (MSP) is a synchronous transmitter serial interface. The MSP provides:
- Element (data) sizes of 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 20, 24, and 32 bits, LSB or MSB first
- Programmable frequency shift clock for data transfer
- Direct interface to SPI compliant devices
- Transmit first-in, first-out memory buffers (FIFOs), 32 bits wide, 8 locations deep STA8135G General description DS14788 - Rev 1 page 17/41
3.16 Direct memory access (DMA)

- Eight DMA channels. Each channel can support an unidirectional transfer.
- The DMAC provides 32 peripheral DMA request lines.
- Single DMA and burst DMA request signals.
- Memory-to-memory, memory-to-peripheral, peripheral-to-memory, and peripheral-to-peripheral transfers.
- Scatter or gather DMA support through the use of linked lists.
- Hardware DMA channel priority. DMA channel 0 has the highest priority and channel 31 has the lowest priority.
- If requests from two channels become active at the same time, the channel with the highest priority is serviced first.
- AHB slave DMA programming interface to the DMA control registers.
- Two AHB bus masters for transferring data.
- Programmable DMA burst size.
- Working on AHB clock.

Table 35. TFBGA160 (7x11x1.2 mm) package mechanical data
- TFBGA stands for Thin Profile Fine Pitch Ball Grid Array.
- Thin Profile: The total profile height (Dim A) is measured from the seating plane to the top of the component.
- The maximum total package height is calculated by the following methodology: A Max. = A1 Typ + A3 Typ + A4 Typ + √ (A1²+A3²+A4² tolerance values).
- Thin profile: 1.00 mm < A ≤ 1.20 mm / Fine pitch: e < 1.00 mm pitch. 2. The typical ball diameter before mounting is 0.35 mm. 3. The tolerance of position that controls the location of the pattern of balls with respect to datums A and B. For each ball there is a cylindrical tolerance zone eee perpendicular to datum C and located on true position with respect to datums A and B as defined by e. The axis perpendicular to datum C of each ball must lie within this tolerance zone. 4. The tolerance of position that controls the location of the balls within the matrix with respect to each other. For each ball there is a cylindrical tolerance zone fff perpendicular to datum C and located on true position as defined by e. The axis perpendicular to datum C of each ball must lie within this tolerance zone. Each tolerance zone fff in the array is contained entirely in the respective zone eee above The axis of each ball must lie simultaneously in both tolerance zones. STA8135G
