Initiate a multi-byte write operation on an TWI peripheral.

freertos_twi_write_packet() is an ASF specific FreeRTOS driver function. It configures the TWI peripheral DMA controller (PDC) to transmit data on the TWI port, then waits until the transmission is complete. Other RTOS tasks execute while the transmission is in progress.

freertos_twi_write_packet_async() is a version that does not wait for the transmission to complete before returning.

The FreeRTOS ASF TWI driver is initialized using a call to freertos_twi_master_init(). The freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags parameter passed into the initialization function defines the driver behavior. freertos_twi_write_packet() can only be used if the freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags parameter passed to the initialization function had the WAIT_TX_COMPLETE bit set.

Readers are recommended to also reference the application note and examples that accompany the FreeRTOS ASF drivers.

The FreeRTOS ASF driver both installs and handles the TWI PDC interrupts. Users do not need to concern themselves with interrupt handling, and must not install their own interrupt handler.

Parameters
p_twiThe handle to the TWI port returned by the freertos_twi_master_init() call used to initialise the port.
p_packetStructure that defines the TWI transfer parameters, such as the I2C chip being addressed, the source data location, and the number of bytes to transmit. twi_packet_t is a standard ASF type (it is not FreeRTOS specific).
block_time_ticksThe FreeRTOS ASF TWI driver is initialized using a call to freertos_twi_master_init(). The freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags parameter passed to the initialization function defines the driver behavior. If freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags had the USE_TX_ACCESS_SEM bit set, then the driver will only write to the TWI peripheral if it has first gained exclusive access to it. block_time_ticks specifies the maximum amount of time the driver will wait to get exclusive access before aborting the write operation. Other tasks will execute during any waiting time. block_time_ticks is specified in RTOS tick periods. To specify a block time in milliseconds, divide the milliseconds value by portTICK_RATE_MS, and pass the result in block_time_ticks. portTICK_RATE_MS is defined by FreeRTOS.
Returns
ERR_INVALID_ARG is returned if an input parameter is invalid. ERR_TIMEOUT is returned if block_time_ticks passed before exclusive access to the TWI peripheral could be obtained. STATUS_OK is returned if the PDC was successfully configured to perform the TWI write operation.

Type returned from a call to freertos_twi_master_init(), and then used to reference a TWI port in calls to FreeRTOS peripheral control functions.

freertos_twi_if freertos_twi_master_init ( Twi *  p_twi,
const freertos_peripheral_options_t *const  freertos_driver_parameters 
)

Initializes the FreeRTOS ASF TWI (I2C) master driver for the specified TWI port.

freertos_twi_master_init() is an ASF specific FreeRTOS driver function. It must be called before any other ASF specific FreeRTOS driver functions attempt to access the same TWI port.

If freertos_driver_parameters->operation_mode equals TWI_I2C_MASTER then freertos_twi_master_init() will configure the TWI port for master mode operation and enable the peripheral. If freertos_driver_parameters->operation_mode equals any other value then freertos_twi_master_init() will not take any action.

Other ASF TWI functions can be called after freertos_twi_master_init() has completed successfully.

The FreeRTOS ASF driver both installs and handles the TWI PDC interrupts. Users do not need to concern themselves with interrupt handling, and must not install their own interrupt handler.

This driver is provided with an application note, and an example project that demonstrates the use of this function.

Parameters
p_twiThe twi peripheral being initialized.
freertos_driver_parametersDefines the driver behavior. See the freertos_peripheral_options_t documentation, and the application note that accompanies the ASF specific FreeRTOS functions.
Returns
If the initialization completes successfully then a handle that can be used with FreeRTOS TWI read and write functions is returned. If the initialisation fails then NULL is returned.

)

Initiate a completely asynchronous multi-byte read operation on an TWI peripheral.

freertos_twi_read_packet_async() is an ASF specific FreeRTOS driver function. It configures the TWI peripheral DMA controller (PDC) to read data from the TWI port, then returns. freertos_twi_read_packet_async() does not wait for the reception to complete before returning.

The FreeRTOS ASF TWI driver is initialized using a call to freertos_twi_master_init(). The freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags parameter passed into the initialization function defines the driver behavior. freertos_twi_read_packet_async() can only be used if the freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags parameter passed to the initialization function had the WAIT_RX_COMPLETE bit clear. The function can also only be used if the length of the packet is more that two. If less, it will block until the transfer is done.

freertos_twi_read_packet_async() is an advanced function and readers are recommended to also reference the application note and examples that accompany the FreeRTOS ASF drivers. freertos_twi_read_packet() is a version that does not exit until the PDC transfer is complete, but still allows other RTOS tasks to execute while the transmission is in progress.

The FreeRTOS ASF driver both installs and handles the TWI PDC interrupts. Users do not need to concern themselves with interrupt handling, and must not install their own interrupt handler.

Parameters
p_twiThe handle to the TWI port returned by the freertos_twi_master_init() call used to initialise the port.
p_packetStructure that defines the TWI transfer parameters, such as the I2C chip being addressed, the destination for the data being read, and the number of bytes to read. twi_packet_t is a standard ASF type (it is not FreeRTOS specific).
block_time_ticksThe FreeRTOS ASF TWI driver is initialized using a call to freertos_twi_master_init(). The freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags parameter passed to the initialization function defines the driver behavior. If freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags had the USE_RX_ACCESS_MUTEX bit set, then the driver will only read from the TWI peripheral if it has first gained exclusive access to it. block_time_ticks specifies the maximum amount of time the driver will wait to get exclusive access before aborting the read operation. Other tasks will execute during any waiting time. block_time_ticks is specified in RTOS tick periods. To specify a block time in milliseconds, divide the milliseconds value by portTICK_RATE_MS, and pass the result in block_time_ticks. portTICK_RATE_MS is defined by FreeRTOS.
notification_semaphoreThe RTOS task that calls the receive function exits the receive function as soon as the reception starts. The data being received by the PDC cannot normally be processed until after the reception has completed. The PDC interrupt (handled internally by the FreeRTOS ASF driver) 'gives' the semaphore when the PDC transfer completes. The notification_semaphore therefore provides a mechanism for the calling task to know when the PDC has read the requested number of bytes. The calling task can call standard FreeRTOS functions to block on the semaphore until the PDC interrupt occurs. Other RTOS tasks will execute while the the calling task is in the Blocked state. The semaphore must be created using the FreeRTOS vSemaphoreCreateBinary() API function before it is used as a parameter.
Returns
ERR_INVALID_ARG is returned if an input parameter is invalid. ERR_TIMEOUT is returned if block_time_ticks passed before exclusive access to the TWI peripheral could be obtained. STATUS_OK is returned if the PDC was successfully configured to perform the TWI read operation.

)

Initiate a completely asynchronous multi-byte write operation on a TWI peripheral.

freertos_twi_write_packet_async() is an ASF specific FreeRTOS driver function. It configures the TWI peripheral DMA controller (PDC) to transmit data on the TWI port, then returns. freertos_twi_write_packet_async() does not wait for the transmission to complete before returning.

The FreeRTOS TWI driver is initialized using a call to freertos_twi_master_init(). The freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags parameter passed into the initialization function defines the driver behavior. freertos_twi_write_packet_async() can only be used if the freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags parameter passed to the initialization function had the WAIT_TX_COMPLETE bit clear. It can also only be used if packet length is more than 1.

freertos_twi_write_packet_async() is an advanced function and readers are recommended to also reference the application note and examples that accompany the FreeRTOS ASF drivers. freertos_twi_write_packet() is a version that does not exit until the PDC transfer is complete, but still allows other RTOS tasks to execute while the transmission is in progress.

The FreeRTOS ASF driver both installs and handles the TWI PDC interrupts. Users do not need to concern themselves with interrupt handling, and must not install their own interrupt handler.

Parameters
p_twiThe handle to the TWI peripheral returned by the freertos_twi_master_init() call used to initialise the peripheral.
p_packetStructure that defines the TWI transfer parameters, such as the I2C chip being addressed, the source data location, and the number of bytes to transmit. twi_packet_t is a standard ASF type (it is not FreeRTOS specific).
block_time_ticksThe FreeRTOS ASF TWI driver is initialized using a call to freertos_twi_master_init(). The freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags parameter passed to the initialization function defines the driver behavior. If freertos_driver_parameters.options_flags had the USE_TX_ACCESS_SEM bit set, then the driver will only write to the TWI peripheral if it has first gained exclusive access to it. block_time_ticks specifies the maximum amount of time the driver will wait to get exclusive access before aborting the write operation. Other tasks will execute during any waiting time. block_time_ticks is specified in RTOS tick periods. To specify a block time in milliseconds, divide the milliseconds value by portTICK_RATE_MS, and pass the result in block_time_ticks. portTICK_RATE_MS is defined by FreeRTOS.
notification_semaphoreThe RTOS task that calls the transmit function exits the transmit function as soon as the transmission starts. The data being transmitted by the PDC must not be modified until after the transmission has completed. The PDC interrupt (handled internally by the FreeRTOS ASF driver) 'gives' the semaphore when the PDC transfer completes. The notification_semaphore therefore provides a mechanism for the calling task to know when the PDC has finished accessing the data. The calling task can call standard FreeRTOS functions to block on the semaphore until the PDC interrupt occurs. Other RTOS tasks will execute while the the calling task is in the Blocked state. The semaphore must be created using the FreeRTOS vSemaphoreCreateBinary() API function before it is used as a parameter.
Returns
ERR_INVALID_ARG is returned if an input parameter is invalid. ERR_TIMEOUT is returned if block_time_ticks passed before exclusive access to the TWI peripheral could be obtained. STATUS_OK is returned if the PDC was successfully configured to perform the TWI write operation.
