2 System Summary
2.1 System Introduction
The EFM32 MCUs are the world’s most energy friendly microcontrollers. With a unique combination
of the powerful 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0+, innovative low energy techniques, short wake-up time from
energy saving modes, and a wide selection of peripherals, the EFM32HG microcontroller is well suited
for any battery operated application as well as other systems requiring high performance and low-energy
consumption. This section gives a short introduction to each of the modules in general terms and also
shows a summary of the configuration for the EFM32HG350 devices. For a complete feature set and
in-depth information on the modules, the reader is referred to the
EFM32HG Reference Manual.
A block diagram of the EFM32HG350 is shown in Figure 2.1 (p. 3) .

2.1.1 ARM Cortex-M0+ Core
The ARM Cortex-M0+ includes a 32-bit RISC processor which can achieve as much as 0.9 Dhrystone
MIPS/MHz. A Wake-up Interrupt Controller handling interrupts triggered while the CPU is asleep is in-
cluded as well. The EFM32 implementation of the Cortex-M0+ is described in detail in
ARM Cortex-M0+
Devices Generic User Guide.
2.1.2 Debug Interface (DBG)
This device includes hardware debug support through a 2-pin serial-wire debug interface and a Micro
Trace Buffer (MTB) for data/instruction tracing.
2.1.3 Memory System Controller (MSC)
The Memory System Controller (MSC) is the program memory unit of the EFM32HG microcontroller.
The flash memory is readable and writable from both the Cortex-M0+ and DMA. The flash memory is
divided into two blocks; the main block and the information block. Program code is normally written to
the main block. Additionally, the information block is available for special user data and flash lock bits.

There is also a read-only page in the information block containing system and device calibration data.
Read and write operations are supported in the energy modes EM0 and EM1.
2.1.4 Direct Memory Access Controller (DMA)
The Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller performs memory operations independently of the CPU.
This has the benefit of reducing the energy consumption and the workload of the CPU, and enables
the system to stay in low energy modes when moving for instance data from the USART to RAM or
from the External Bus Interface to a PWM-generating timer. The DMA controller uses the PL230 µDMA
controller licensed from ARM.
2.1.5 Reset Management Unit (RMU)
The RMU is responsible for handling the reset functionality of the EFM32HG.
2.1.6 Energy Management Unit (EMU)
The Energy Management Unit (EMU) manage all the low energy modes (EM) in EFM32HG microcon-
trollers. Each energy mode manages if the CPU and the various peripherals are available. The EMU
can also be used to turn off the power to unused SRAM blocks.
2.1.7 Clock Management Unit (CMU)
The Clock Management Unit (CMU) is responsible for controlling the oscillators and clocks on-board the
EFM32HG. The CMU provides the capability to turn on and off the clock on an individual basis to all
peripheral modules in addition to enable/disable and configure the available oscillators. The high degree
of flexibility enables software to minimize energy consumption in any specific application by not wasting
power on peripherals and oscillators that are inactive.
2.1.8 Watchdog (WDOG)
The purpose of the watchdog timer is to generate a reset in case of a system failure, to increase appli-
cation reliability. The failure may e.g. be caused by an external event, such as an ESD pulse, or by a
software failure.
2.1.9 Peripheral Reflex System (PRS)
The Peripheral Reflex System (PRS) system is a network which lets the different peripheral module
communicate directly with each other without involving the CPU. Peripheral modules which send out
Reflex signals are called producers. The PRS routes these reflex signals to consumer peripherals which
apply actions depending on the data received. The format for the Reflex signals is not given, but edge
triggers and other functionality can be applied by the PRS.
2.1.10 Low Energy USB
The unique Low Energy USB peripheral provides a full-speed USB 2.0 compliant device controller and
PHY with ultra-low current consumption. The device supports both full-speed (12MBit/s) and low speed
(1.5MBit/s) operation, and includes a dedicated USB oscillator with clock recovery mechanism for crys-
tal-free operation. No external components are required. The Low Energy Mode ensures the current
consumption is optimized and enables USB communication on a strict power budget. The USB device
includes an internal dedicated descriptor-based Scatter/Gather DMA and supports up to 3 OUT end-
points and 3 IN endpoints, in addition to endpoint 0. The on-chip PHY includes software controllable
pull-up and pull-down resistors.
2.1.11 Inter-Integrated Circuit Interface (I2C)
The I C module provides an interface between the MCU and a serial I C-bus. It is capable of acting as
both a master and a slave, and supports multi-master buses. Both standard-mode, fast-mode and fast-
mode plus speeds are supported, allowing transmission rates all the way from 10 kbit/s up to 1 Mbit/s.

Slave arbitration and timeouts are also provided to allow implementation of an SMBus compliant system.

The interface provided to software by the I C module, allows both fine-grained control of the transmission
process and close to automatic transfers. Automatic recognition of slave addresses is provided in all
energy modes.
2.1.12 Universal Synchronous/Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (US-
ART)
The Universal Synchronous Asynchronous serial Receiver and Transmitter (USART) is a very flexible
serial I/O module. It supports full duplex asynchronous UART communication as well as RS-485, SPI,
MicroWire and 3-wire. It can also interface with ISO7816 SmartCards, IrDA and I2S devices.
2.1.13 Pre-Programmed USB/UART Bootloader
The bootloader presented in application note AN0042 is pre-programmed in the device at factory. The
bootloader enables users to program the EFM32 through a UART or a USB CDC class virtual UART
without the need for a debugger. The autobaud feature, interface and commands are described further
in the application note.
2.1.14 Low Energy Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter
(LEUART)
The unique LEUART , the Low Energy UART, is a UART that allows two-way UART communication on
a strict power budget. Only a 32.768 kHz clock is needed to allow UART communication up to 9600 baud/
s. The LEUART includes all necessary hardware support to make asynchronous serial communication
possible with minimum of software intervention and energy consumption.

2.1.15 Timer/Counter (TIMER)
The 16-bit general purpose Timer has 3 compare/capture channels for input capture and compare/Pulse-
Width Modulation (PWM) output. TIMER0 also includes a Dead-Time Insertion module suitable for motor
control applications.
2.1.16 Real Time Counter (RTC)
The Real Time Counter (RTC) contains a 24-bit counter and is clocked either by a 32.768 kHz crystal
oscillator, or a 32.768 kHz RC oscillator. In addition to energy modes EM0 and EM1, the RTC is also
available in EM2. This makes it ideal for keeping track of time since the RTC is enabled in EM2 where
most of the device is powered down.
2.1.17 Pulse Counter (PCNT)
The Pulse Counter (PCNT) can be used for counting pulses on a single input or to decode quadrature
encoded inputs. It runs off either the internal LFACLK or the PCNTn_S0IN pin as external clock source.
The module may operate in energy mode EM0 - EM3.
2.1.18 Analog Comparator (ACMP)
The Analog Comparator is used to compare the voltage of two analog inputs, with a digital output indi-
cating which input voltage is higher. Inputs can either be one of the selectable internal references or from
external pins. Response time and thereby also the current consumption can be configured by altering
the current supply to the comparator.
2.1.19 Voltage Comparator (VCMP)
The Voltage Supply Comparator is used to monitor the supply voltage from software. An interrupt can
be generated when the supply falls below or rises above a programmable threshold. Response time and
thereby also the current consumption can be configured by altering the current supply to the comparator.
