Migrating ASF SAM C21 Application to MPLAB Harmony v3 PIC32CM MC: Step 2

Step 2.1: Configure I²C Peripheral Library and I²C Pins

1

Under the Available Components tab, expand Peripherals > SERCOM.

Double click on SERCOM2 to add the SERCOM instance 2 to the project.

Select the SERCOM 2 Peripheral Library and configure it for the I²C protocol.

  • The SERCOM2 (as I²C) retains the default 100 kHz speed because the temperature sensor chip on the I/O1 Xplained Pro Extension Kit can operate at 100 kHz I²C speed.
  • The SERCOM2 (as I²C) retains the default 50-100 nanoseconds hold time for Serial Data (SDA) Hold Time because it aligns with the minimum (50 nanoseconds) start hold time in the specification of the temperature sensor chip (AT30TSE758).
  • The SERCOM2 (as I²C) retains the default 100 nanoseconds for I2C Trise time because it aligns with the maximum (300 nanoseconds) input rise time in the specification of the temperature sensor chip (AT30TSE758).

Open the Pin Configuration tab by clicking MHC > Tools > Pin Configuration.

Now, select the MHC Pin Table tab and then scroll down to the SERCOM2 module as follows.

  • Enable I²C Clock (I2C_SCK)(SERCOM2_PAD1) on Pin #22 (PA13)
  • Enable I²C Data (I2C_SDA)(SERCOM2_PAD0) on Pin #21 (PA12)

When a peripheral is added to the project, the peripheral clock is automatically fed by the GCLK0.

This completes the configuration of the I²C peripheral library. The application code will use the I²C PLIB Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to read the temperature from the temperature sensor.

Step 2.2: Configure Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART) Peripheral Library, USART Pins, and link STDIO Library

1

Under the tab Available Components tab, expand Peripherals > SERCOM.

Double click on SERCOM0 to add the SERCOM instance 0 to the project.

Select the Pin Table tab and then scroll down to the SERCOM0 module as follows.

  • Enable USART_TX (SERCOM0_PAD2) on Pin #11 (PA06)
  • Enable USART_RX (SERCOM0_PAD3) on Pin #12 (PA07)
