4. Disabling SPI has no effect on the SR.TDRE bit
Disabling SPI has no effect on the SR.TDRE bit whereas the write data command is filtered
when SPI is disabled. Writing to TDR when SPI is disabled will not clear SR.TDRE. If SPI is
disabled during a PDCA transfer, the PDCA will continue to write data to TDR until its buffer
is empty, and this data will be lost.
Fix/Workaround
Disable the PDCA, add two NOPs, and disable the SPI. To continue the transfer, enable the
SPI and PDCA.
5. SPI bad serial clock generation on 2nd chip_select when SCBR=1, CPOL=1, and
NCPHA=0
When multiple chip selects (CS) are in use, if one of the baudrates equal 1 while one
(CSRn.SCBR=1) of the others do not equal 1, and CSRn.CPOL=1 and CSRn.NCPHA=0,
then an additional pulse will be generated on SCK.
Fix/Workaround
When multiple CS are in use, if one of the baudrates equals 1, the others must also equal 1
if CSRn.CPOL=1 and CSRn.NCPHA=0.
6. Timer Counter
7. Channel chaining skips first pulse for upper channel
When chaining two channels using the Block Mode Register, the first pulse of the clock
between the channels is skipped.
Fix/Workaround
Configure the lower channel with RA = 0x1 and RC = 0x2 to produce a dummy clock cycle
for the upper channel. After the dummy cycle has been generated, indicated by the
SR.CPCS bit, reconfigure the RA and RC registers for the lower channel with the real
values.
35.2.3 TWIS
1. Clearing the NAK bit before the BTF bit is set locks up the TWI bus
When the TWIS is in transmit mode, clearing the NAK Received (NAK) bit of the Status Reg-
ister (SR) before the end of the Acknowledge/Not Acknowledge cycle will cause the TWIS to
attempt to continue transmitting data, thus locking up the bus.
Fix/Workaround
Clear SR.NAK only after the Byte Transfer Finished (BTF) bit of the same register has been
set.
35.2.4 PWMA
1. The SR.READY bit cannot be cleared by writing to SCR.READY
The Ready bit in the Status Register will not be cleared when writing a one to the corre-
sponding bit in the Status Clear register. The Ready bit will be cleared when the Busy bit is
set.
Fix/Workaround
Disable the Ready interrupt in the interrupt handler when receiving the interrupt. When an
operation that triggers the Busy/Ready bit is started, wait until the ready bit is low in the Sta-
tus Register before enabling the interrupt.
