The samplestamp generator is used to start input and output DMA operation. The samplestamp generator is also used to synchronize PDM modules over a wireless network, so correct and fixed audio latency can be achieved. Synchronization over a wireless network is an optional feature that can be bypassed.
The samplestamp generator is enabled and is running while PDM:STPCTL.STP_EN = 1. Counter and capture registers are reset when software writes PDM:STPCTL.STP_EN = 0.
The below block diagram below shows as the the samplestamp generator:
