Time Management Unit
The CAN Controller integrates a free-running 16-bit internal timer. The counter is driven by the
bit clock of the CAN bus line. It is enabled when the CAN controller is enabled (CANEN set in the
CAN_MR register). It is automatically cleared in the following cases:
The application can also reset the internal timer by setting TIMRST in the CAN_TCR register.
The current value of the internal timer is always accessible by reading the CAN_TIM register.
When the timer rolls-over from FFFFh to 0000h, TOVF (Timer Overflow) signal in the CAN_SR
register is set. TOVF bit in the CAN_SR register is cleared by reading the CAN_SR register.
Depending on the corresponding interrupt mask in the CAN_IMR register, an interrupt is gener-
ated while TOVF is set.
In a CAN network, some CAN devices may have a larger counter. In this case, the application
can also decide to freeze the internal counter when the timer reaches FFFFh and to wait for a
restart condition from another device. This feature is enabled by setting TIMFRZ in the CAN_MR
register. The CAN_TIM register is frozen to the FFFFh value. A clear condition described above
restarts the timer. A timer overflow (TOVF) interrupt is triggered.
To monitor the CAN bus activity, the CAN_TIM register is copied to the CAN _TIMESTP register
after each start of frame or end of frame and a TSTP interrupt is triggered. If TEOF bit in the
CAN_MR register is set, the value is captured at each End Of Frame, else it is captured at each
Start Of Frame. Depending on the corresponding mask in the CAN_IMR register, an interrupt is
generated while TSTP is set in the CAN_SR. TSTP bit is cleared by reading the CAN_SR
register.
The time management unit can operate in one of the two following modes:
Timestamping Mode is enabled by clearing TTM field in the CAN_MR register. Time Triggered
Mode is enabled by setting TTM field in the CAN_MR register.
