The Device Configurator generates structures, defines, and initialization code for the blocks on the chip. All generated code is located in the

GeneratedSource

folder next to the *.

modus

file. Refer to the Peripheral Driver Library (PDL) API Reference for more information about this code. Each enabled resource has a link to the specific driver documentation in the

Parameters pane

.

Note:

The Device Configurator generates code based on the hardware resources that are enabled. If a resource is not enabled, no configuration will be generated for it. This means the resource will retain its default reset state. In most cases, this is powered off. However, some features are enabled by default, such as debug connectivity. To disconnect these features, you must call the appropriate API functions to turn the feature off.

The defines and structures are all named based on the resource that created it. In general, these have the form

<resource-name>_config

. These structures can be passed to the PDL functions that are responsible for configuring the hardware block.

The functions are specific to a resource category and have names of the form

init_cycfg_<resource-category>

. The

init

function for a particular resource type is located in

GeneratedSource/cycfg_<resource-category>.h

. There are also the

cycfg.h

and

cycfg.c

files. Include the

cycfg.h

file in your application to access the generated header files. The

cycfg.c

file implements

init_cycfg_all()

, which calls all other generated functions, for example

init_cycfg_pins()

.

The resource types include:

  • Clocks: Peripheral clocks

  • Connectivity: Configuration of the programmable analog and digital routing resources

  • Peripherals: Fixed function analog and digital peripherals

  • System: Overall configuration function to setup all power and clock options

It is up to you to make use of the generated code based on the application's needs. This can be done as part of the application’s

main()

loop.
