Status and Counts
Reading the Device Counters: dalNbcsSswGetCounts
This function retrieves all the device counts. This routine should be called by the application
code, in the context of a task. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that this function is called
often enough to prevent the device counts from saturating or rolling over.
Getting the Current Status: dalNbcsSswGetStatus
This function retrieves a snapshot of the current status from the device registers. This involves
retrieving current alarms, status, and clock activity. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure the
buffer indicated by
group.
Interrupt Service Functions
Configuring ISR Processing: dalNbcsSswCfgISRMode
This function allows the user to configure how the interrupts are handled: either in polling
(NBCS_POLL_MODE) or interrupt driven (NBCS_ISR_MODE) modes. If polling is selected,
the user is responsible for calling periodically
the device.
