Overview

XMC Lib consists of routines and data structures which cover all peripheral functions.

It provides a peripheral register abstraction by a set of stateless APIs. It is possible to write a full application without a single peripheral register access.

It is built on top of Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard (CMSIS).

Coding Rules and Conventions

This section describes the set of coding rules and conventions applied to the XMC Peripheral Library:

Strict C99 usage, in addition unions and bitfields are used for more compact code and data section.
Use only standard data types
Use enumerations in favor of defines
Naming convention:
- Variables use only lower case, underscore separated words.
- Functions use CamelCase convention.
Non blocking APIs for better integration in event driven applications. Polling is supported as well by API.
Runtime error checking can be enabled by user
XMC_ASSERT() used to check input parameters of functions, result of calculations, ... .
Note
Only enabled if XMC_ASSERT_ENABLE macro is defined
XMC_DEBUG() used to monitor status of application.
Note
Only enabled if XMC_DEBUG_ENABLE macro is defined
Each driver defines its own namespace: every function and type definition is prefixed by a unique identifier, i.e. XMC_VADC

XMC Peripheral Library follows an object oriented approach, where instances of peripherals are treated as objects = attributes + functions.
Attributes are the peripheral data structures defined in device header file. These gets configured using configuration data structures using initialization functions.
Peripheral functions take a pointer to the peripheral data struct as the first argument.
XMC Peripheral Library uses naming conventions to bind the data struct and the functions that operate on i, i.e. XMC_PERI_DoSomething(XMC_PERI_t const *peri, ...);

Typically a driver contains the following functionality:

Initialization function
XMC_PERI_STATUS_t XMC_PERI_Init(XMC_PERI_t *const peri, const XMC_PERI_CONFIG_t const *config);
Enable/disable peripheral functions
void XMC_PERI_Enable(XMC_PERI_t *const peri);
void XMC_PERI_Disable(XMC_PERI_t *const peri);
Connectivity functions
void XMC_PERI_SetInputSource(XMC_PERI_t *const peri, ...);
Event handling functions
void XMC_PERI_Enable(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
void XMC_PERI_Disable(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
void XMC_PERI_EnableEvent(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
void XMC_PERI_DisableEvent(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
void XMC_PERI_TriggerEvent(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
uint32_t XMC_PERI_GetEventStatus(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
void XMC_PERI_SetInterruptNode(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
Control functions
void XMC_PERI_Start(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
void XMC_PERI_Stop(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
void XMC_PERI_Suspend(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
void XMC_PERI_Resume(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
Get/setters functions, run time API to obtain or modify state of peripheral
void XMC_PERI_SetSomething(XMC_PERI_t const *peri, ...);
uint32_t XMC_PERI_GetSomething(XMC_PERI_t const *peri);
IRQ Handlers are provided which can be used optionally by the user to make easier the coding
void XMC_PERI_IRQHandler(uint32_t sr_num);

A peripheral driver is structured as:

Common API valid for all the supported devices, i.e. xmc_gpio.h and xmc_gpio.c
Family specific extension API, i.e. xmc1_gpio.h and xmc1_gpio.c
Maps files to help user to configure connectivity, i.e. xmc1_gpio_map.h already has defined all the pins available depending on the target device selected.

If needed the family extension API implementation file, i.e. xmc1_gpio.c, can also overload common functionality to adapt it to target device. The peripheral driver abstracts the target device, helping the user in code porting to another family or device.

How to use the XMC Peripheral Library

The following steps are required:

Include header file of required peripheral. No need to include device specific peripheral header files, this is done automatically using the information of the selected target device.
Peripheral configuration and initialization.
Connectivity configuration.
Event/interrupt configuration.
Start operation.
IO configuration.
Manage peripheral.

/* Include files */
#include "xmc_gpio.h"
#include "xmc_i2c.h"
...
int main(void)
{
  /* Peripheral configuration and initialization. */
  XMC_I2C_CH_CONFIG_t i2c_cfg;
  i2c_cfg.baudrate = 400000U;
  XMC_I2C_CH_Init(XMC_I2C0_CH0, &i2c_cfg);
  /* Connectivity configuration. */
  XMC_I2C_CH_SetInputSource(XMC_I2C0_CH0, XMC_I2C_CH_INPUT_SDA, USIC1_C0_DX0_P2_14);
  XMC_I2C_CH_SetInputSource(XMC_I2C0_CH0, XMC_I2C_CH_INPUT_SCL, USIC1_C0_DX1_P5_8);
  /* Event/interrupt configuration. */
  XMC_I2C_CH_EnableEvent(XMC_I2C0_CH0, XMC_I2C_CH_EVENT_ARBITRATION_LOST);
  NVIC_SetPriority(USIC0_0_IRQn, NVIC_GetPriorityGrouping(), 63, 0);
  NVIC_EnableIRQ(USIC0_0_IRQn);
  /* Start operation. */
  XMC_I2C_CH_Start(XMC_I2C0_CH0);
  /* IO configuration. */
  XMC_GPIO_SetMode(P1_5, XMC_GPIO_MODE_OUTPUT_OPEN_DRAIN | P1_5_AF_U0C0_DOUT0);
  XMC_GPIO_SetMode(P1_1, XMC_GPIO_MODE_OUTPUT_OPEN_DRAIN | P1_1_AF_U0C0_SCLKOUT);
  ...
  /* Manage peripheral */
  XMC_I2C_CH_MasterStart(XMC_I2C1_CH0, IO_EXPANDER_ADDRESS, XMC_I2C_CH_CMD_WRITE);
  while((XMC_I2C_CH_GetStatusFlag(XMC_I2C1_CH0) & XMC_I2C_CH_STATUS_FLAG_ACK_RECEIVED) == 0U)
  {
  /* wait for ACK */
  }
  XMC_I2C_CH_ClearStatusFlag(XMC_I2C1_CH0, XMC_I2C_CH_STATUS_FLAG_ACK_RECEIVED);
  ...

For more details, see the Eclipse IDE for ModusToolbox User Guide

In Command-line Interface (CLI)

ModusToolbox provides the Project Creator as both a GUI tool and a command line tool to easily create one or more ModusToolbox applications. See the "Project Creator Tools" section of the ModusToolbox User Guide for more details.

Alternatively, you can manually create the application using the following steps:

Download and unzip this repository onto your local machine, or clone the repository.
Open a CLI terminal and navigate to the application folder.
Import the required libraries by executing the make getlibs command.

Various CLI tools include a -h option that prints help information to the terminal screen about that tool. For more details, see the ModusToolbox User Guide.
