3.1 TX Buffer Mode

The TX is configured as buffer mode in the current demo projects in SDK. Below content discusses how to use TX in buffer mode.

DL_MCAN_TxBufElement txMsg;
/* Initialize message to transmit. */
/* Identifier Value. */
txMsg.id = ((uint32_t)(0x4)) << 18U;
/* Transmit data frame. */
txMsg.rtr = 0U;
/* 11-bit standard identifier. */
txMsg.xtd = 0U;
/* ESI bit in CAN FD format depends only on error passive flag. */
txMsg.esi = 0U;
/* Transmitting 4 bytes. */
txMsg.dlc = 1U;
/* CAN FD frames transmitted with bit rate switching. */
txMsg.brs = 1U;
/* Frame transmitted in CAN FD format. */
txMsg.fdf = 1U;
/* Store Tx events. */
txMsg.efc = 1U;
/* Message Marker. */
txMsg.mm = 0xAAU;
/* Data bytes. */
txMsg.data[0] = LED_STATUS_ON;

/* Write Tx Message to the Message RAM. */
DL_MCAN_writeMsgRam(MCAN0_INST, DL_MCAN_MEM_TYPE_BUF, 0U, &txMsg);

/* Add request for transmission. */
DL_MCAN_TXBufAddReq(MCAN0_INST, 0U);

First, the TX message is saved in to Message RAM in Buffer type with the buffer number by calling DL_MCAN_writeMsgRam(). Then, use the add request to transmit with the buffer number information of this message by calling DL_MCAN_TXBufAddReq().
