Bit 1 – ENABLE Enable
Due to synchronization there is delay from writing CTRLA.ENABLE until the peripheral is enabled/
disabled. The value written to CTRLA.ENABLE will read back immediately and the ENABLE bit in the
Synchronization Busy register (SYNCBUSY.ENABLE) will be set. SYNCBUSY.ENABLE will be cleared
when the operation is complete.
This bit is not enable-protected.
Value Description
0
The peripheral is disabled.
1
The peripheral is enabled.
Bit 0 – SWRST Software Reset
Writing a '0' to this bit has no effect.
Writing a '1' to this bit resets all registers in the FREQM to their initial state, and the FREQM will be
disabled. Writing a '1' to this bit will always take precedence, meaning that all other writes in the same
write-operation will be discarded.
Due to synchronization there is a delay from writing CTRLA.SWRST until the Reset is complete.
CTRLA.SWRST and SYNCBUSY.SWRST will both be cleared when the Reset is complete.
This bit is not enable-protected.
Value Description
0
There is no ongoing Reset operation.
1
The Reset operation is ongoing.
