Based on FlexRay communication driver development for SPC564A80B4

Hello all,

We are facing some difficulties with FlexRay driver development for SPC564A80B4.

  • We can able to configure the Protocol Control Registers (PCR0~31) for FR configurations, so that ECU and FlexRay module successfully able to move to Normal Active state of Flexray communication.

  • Also message buffer configurations for Transmission and reception is also performed according to number slots.

  • Tool (CANalyser) is also configured with the same flexray configurations as ECU.

  • Now, when we are sending a frame from ECU in slot 64 (dynamic slot).

  • But we observed frame error/ SERR error in the CANlyser window, also payload length is observed as zero and slot ID is 64 is visible. (Please find the attached error snapshot SERR_error.jpg)

     

We would like to know what can be the possible reasons for this error.

Please let us know if any additional information is required.

Regards 

Mahesh C

Hello Manesh ,

According to the RM, in the chapter 33.4.2

If the protocol engine is clocked by the internal PLL, the frequency of the PE clock source is

system clock / 3. The system clock frequency has to be 120 MHz.

Did you clock your protocol Engine Clock ? on-chip crytal simulator or PLL ?

CLKSEL

Protocol Engine Clock Source Select �? This bit is used to select the clock source for the protocol

engine.

0 PE clock source is generated by on-chip crystal oscillator

1 PE clock source is generated by on-chip PLL

Have you checked the different Status Register , Message Buffer Status Error and Channel A/B Status error?

    Best Regards

Hello Erwan,

We using ext-crystal osc of 40Mhz as a PE clock.

Hello Mahesh ,

it is often a question of configuration , timing settings.

FlexRay is a difficult IP, with just bad timing setting , nothing can work.

I am checking with experts.

Hello Mahesh ,

Honestly , you should try to solve your clock configuration (loss of clock) first because a timing issue on Flexray ip could trigger some synchro issues.

Did you use official AutoSAR Flexray MCAL driver ?

or it is your own driver ?

Best regards
