TMS320F28P659DH-Q1: MCAN TX buffer questions

Part Number: TMS320F28P659DH-Q1

Tool/software:

Hi experts,

Good day! I am asking for customer. My customer found this MCAN description in Errate manual. 

She wants to know the following information:

1. The maximal value and minimal value of "delay between the individual Tx requests".

2. If the time delay of two TXBAR writes are longer than this delay,  can it guarantee that the recipient can receive the message in sequence even if they have the same ID ?

Thanks!

Best Regards

  • Kita,

    This errata is from the original MCAN IP and has been there when incorporated to our C2000 devices.  To simulate and determine the minimum time delay between two transmission would require exhaustive and lengthy analysis.  Please recommend to customer to use the FIFO workaround.  Alternatively, customer can do an experiment by adjusting the time between transmissions to see determine the minimum value for successive TX buffer transmission, however since this is already a known bug for TX buffer, repeatability may not be assured.

    Best regards,
