2 Serial Port Design Methodology

The following is a step-by-step guide to designing a custom serial interface using the CLB. The steps presented here walk the designer from start to finish during the CLB logic design. Solutions are presented to common design challenges and pitfalls.

This application report assumes the reader is already familiar with the architecture of the CLB and with Code Composer Studio (CCS) integrated development environment (IDE). Below is a list of training materials that can be used for a quick overview of the CLB and C2000 real-time microcontrollers:

It is important to keep in mind that the CLB type, number of CLB tiles, and crossbar (XBAR) logic differs between C2000 real-time microcontrollers. For detailed information on the CLB relating to a specific C2000 real-time microcontroller, see the device-specific TRM.
