PRODUCTION DATA
The TCAN285x-Q1 family uses EEPROM for two purposes. The first is for device trimming and is not accessible. This portion of EEPROM is monitored and loaded upon power and when exiting sleep mode, checking for a valid CRC. If the CRC is not valid, this process is performed a total of eight times. If still not valid, INT_3 register 8'h53[0] is set to 1b. This means the device has an issue that can impact the performance and functionality.
The second use of the EEPROM is to allow the user to store specific device configurations. The configuration bits saved are provided in each register. To save the configuration to SPI CRC must be enabled for the save function at a minimum. Saving the configuration to EEPROM is accomplished by writing a 1b to register 8'h4E[7] and default code Ah to 8'h4E[3:0] followed by the CRC byte.
When in one-byte mode, see Table 8-27 for the procedure if the processor does not support CRC. Register 8'h4E[3:0] reads back 0h. Once the configuration bits have been stored to EEPROM, a 0b is read back from 8'h4E[7]. If a power on reset takes place the configuration of the device is reloaded from EEPROM. Table 8-29 provides the list of registers and the bits saved to EEPROM if used.
When two-byte mode needs to be programmed into EEPROM for the first time, or if the device is already in two-byte mode and the device configuration needs be saved in EEPROM, follow the procedure outlined in Table 8-28.
| Step | Description | Register | Data | Second Data Byte |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Configure device | See Table 8-29 | N/A | |
| 2 | Set CRC Polynomial
| 8'h0B[0] |
| N/A |
| 3 | Enable SPI CRC if not enable | 8'h0A | 01h | N/A |
| 4 | Save to EERPOM | 8'h4E | 8Ah |
|
| 5 | Disable SPI CRC if not supported | 8'h0A | 00h |
|
| Step | Description | Register | Data | Second Data Byte |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Configure the device into two-byte mode (skip this step if a;ready in two-byte mode) | 8h'09 | 80h | N/A |
| 2 | Perform any other configurations that need to be saved into EEPROM (Use two-byte SPI writes) | See Table 8-29 | ||
| 3 | Readback register 8h'09/0A to confirm two-byte mode. This step is critical for saving to EEPROM. | 8h'09 | 80h | 00h |
| 4 | Save to EERPOM | 8'h4E | 8Ah | 36h |
The saved configuration can be forced to check if the saved configuration CRC is valid but using register 8'h4E[6], EEPROM_CRC_CHK, = 1b. This takes approximately 200μs to complete. If CRC is valid then no action is taken, If CRC is not valid the device attempts this action eight times. If still not valid afterward the device sets an interrupt indicating there is an issue are INT_4 register 8'h5A[1], EEPROM_CRC_INT.
The following are power and reset scenarios and how the EEPROM is used.
