ESP Serial Slave Link ​

Overview ​

Espressif provides several chips that can work as slaves. These slave devices rely on some common buses, and have their own communication protocols over those buses. The esp_serial_slave_link component is designed for the master to communicate with ESP slave devices through those protocols over the bus drivers.

After an esp_serial_slave_link device is initialized properly, the application can use it to communicate with the ESP slave devices conveniently.

Note

The ESP-IDF component esp_serial_slave_link has been moved from ESP-IDF since version v5.0 to a separate repository:

To add ESSL component in your project, please run idf.py add-dependency espressif/esp_serial_slave_link.

Espressif Device Protocols ​

For more details about Espressif device protocols, see the following documents.

Terminology ​

  • ESSL: Abbreviation for ESP Serial Slave Link, the component described by this document.

  • Master: The device running the esp_serial_slave_link component.

  • ESSL device: a virtual device on the master associated with an ESP slave device. The device context has the knowledge of the slave protocol above the bus, relying on some bus drivers to communicate with the slave.

  • ESSL device handle: a handle to ESSL device context containing the configuration, status and data required by the ESSL component. The context stores the driver configurations, communication state, data shared by master and slave, etc.

* The context should be initialized before it is used, and get deinitialized if not used any more. The master application operates on the ESSL device through this handle.

  • ESP slave: the slave device connected to the bus, which ESSL component is designed to communicate with.

  • Bus: The bus over which the master and the slave communicate with each other.

  • Slave protocol: The special communication protocol specified by Espressif HW/SW over the bus.

  • TX buffer num: a counter, which is on the slave and can be read by the master, indicates the accumulated buffer numbers that the slave has loaded to the hardware to receive data from the master.

  • RX data size: a counter, which is on the slave and can be read by the master, indicates the accumulated data size that the slave has loaded to the hardware to send to the master.

Services Provided by ESP Slave ​

There are some common services provided by the Espressif slaves:

  1. Tohost Interrupts: The slave can inform the master about certain events by the interrupt line. (optional)

  2. Frhost Interrupts: The master can inform the slave about certain events.

  3. TX FIFO (master to slave): The slave can receive data from the master in units of receiving buffers.

The slave updates the TX buffer num to inform the master how much data it can receive, and the master then read the TX buffer num, and take off the used buffer number to know how many buffers are remaining.

  1. RX FIFO (slave to master): The slave can send data in stream to the master. The SDIO slave can also indicate it has new data to send to master by the interrupt line.

The slave updates the RX data size to inform the master how much data it has prepared to send, and then the master read the data size, and take off the data length it has already received to know how many data is remaining.

  1. Shared registers: The master can read some part of the registers on the slave, and also write these registers to let the slave read.

The services provided by the slave depends on the slave's model. See SDIO Slave Capabilities of Espressif Chips and SPI Slave Capabilities of Espressif Chips for more details.

ESP SDIO Slave ​

The ESP SDIO slave link (ESSL SDIO) devices relies on the SDMMC component. It includes the usage of communicating with ESP SDIO Slave device via the SDMMC Host or SDSPI Host feature. The ESSL device should be initialized as below:

  1. Initialize a SDMMC card (see :doc: Document of SDMMC driver </api-reference/storage/sdmmc>``) structure.

  2. Call sdmmc_card_init() to initialize the card.

  3. Initialize the ESSL device with essl_sdio_config_t. The card member should be the sdmmc_card_t got in step 2, and the recv_buffer_size member should be filled correctly according to pre-negotiated value.

  4. Call essl_init() to do initialization of the SDIO part.

  5. Call essl_wait_for_ready() to wait for the slave to be ready.

ESP SPI Slave ​

Note

If you are communicating with the ESP SDIO Slave device through SPI interface, you should use the SDIO interface instead.

Has not been supported yet.

APIs ​

After the initialization process above is performed, you can call the APIs below to make use of the services provided by the slave:

Tohost Interrupts (Optional) ​

  1. Call essl_get_intr_ena() to know which events trigger the interrupts to the master.

  2. Call essl_set_intr_ena() to set the events that trigger interrupts to the master.

  3. Call essl_wait_int() to wait until interrupt from the slave, or timeout.

  4. When interrupt is triggered, call essl_get_intr() to know which events are active, and call essl_clear_intr() to clear them.

Frhost Interrupts ​

  1. Call essl_send_slave_intr() to trigger general purpose interrupt of the slave.

TX FIFO ​

  1. Call essl_get_tx_buffer_num() to know how many buffers the slave has prepared to receive data from the master. This is optional. The master will poll tx_buffer_num when it tries to send packets to the slave, until the slave has enough buffer or timeout.

  2. Call essl_send_packet() to send data to the slave.

RX FIFO ​

  1. Call essl_get_rx_data_size() to know how many data the slave has prepared to send to the master. This is optional. When the master tries to receive data from the slave, it updates the rx_data_size for once, if the current rx_data_size is shorter than the buffer size the master prepared to receive. And it may poll the rx_data_size if the rx_data_size keeps 0, until timeout.

  2. Call essl_get_packet() to receive data from the slave.

Reset Counters (Optional) ​

Call essl_reset_cnt() to reset the internal counter if you find the slave has reset its counter.

Application Example ​

The example below shows how ESP32 SDIO host and slave communicate with each other. The host uses the ESSL SDIO:

Note

out_data should be prepared in words and in the DRAM. The buffer may be written in words by the DMA. When a byte is written, the remaining bytes in the same word will also be overwritten, even the len is shorter than a word.

  • out_data -- [out] Buffer for read data, strongly suggested to be in the DRAM and aligned to 4

  • flags -- SPI_TRANS_* flags to control the transaction mode of the transaction to send.

Returns

  • ESP_OK: success

  • or other return value from :cpp:func:spi_device_transmit.

esp_err_t essl_spi_wrdma_done(spi_device_handle_t spi, uint32_t flags)

Send the wrdma_done command to the slave. Upon receiving this command, the slave will stop receiving, process the received data, and maybe prepare the next buffer to receive.

Note

This is required only when the slave is working in segment mode.

Parameters

  • spi -- SPI device handle representing the slave

  • flags -- SPI_TRANS_* flags to control the transaction mode of the transaction to send.

Returns

  • ESP_OK: success

  • or other return value from :cpp:func:spi_device_transmit.

Structures ​

struct essl_spi_config_t

Configuration of ESSL SPI device.

Public Members

spi_device_handle_t *spi

Pointer to SPI device handle.

uint32_t tx_buf_size

The pre-negotiated Master TX buffer size used by both the host and the slave.

uint8_t tx_sync_reg

The pre-negotiated register ID for Master-TX-SLAVE-RX synchronization. 1 word (4 Bytes) will be reserved for the synchronization.

uint8_t rx_sync_reg

The pre-negotiated register ID for Master-RX-Slave-TX synchronization. 1 word (4 Bytes) will be reserved for the synchronization.
