Abstract
A processing system includes a transmission terminal configured to provide a transmission signal, a reception terminal configured to receive a reception signal, a microprocessor programmable via software instructions, a memory controller configured to be connected to a memory, a serial communication interface, and a communication system. Specifically, the serial communication interface supports a CAN FD Light mode of operation and a UART mode of operation. For this purpose, the serial communication interface comprises a control register, a clock management circuit, a transmission shift register, a transmission control circuit, a reception shift register and a reception control circuit. Accordingly, the microprocessor can transmit and/or receive CAN FD Light or UART frames via the same serial communication interface.
