Introduction  
The rapidly growing area of embedded control applications is representing one of the  
most time-critical operating environments for today’s microcontrollers. Complex control  
algorithms have to be processed based on a large number of digital as well as analog  
input signals, and the appropriate output signals must be generated within a defined  
maximum response time. Embedded control applications also are often sensitive to  
board space, power consumption, and overall system cost.  
Embedded control applications therefore require microcontrollers, which:  
• offer a high level of system integration  
• eliminate the need for additional peripheral devices and the associated software overhead  
• provide system security and fail-safe mechanisms  
• provide effective means to control (and reduce) the device’s power consumption.  
With the increasing complexity of embedded control applications, a significant increase  
in CPU performance and peripheral functionality over conventional 8-bit controllers is  
required from microcontrollers for high-end embedded control systems. In order to  
achieve this high performance goal Infineon has decided to develop its family of 16-bit  
CMOS microcontrollers without the constraints of backward compatibility.  
Of course the architecture of the 16-bit microcontroller family pursues successful  
hardware and software concepts, which have been established in Infineons popular 8-  
bit controller families.  
About this Manual  
This manual describes the functionality of a number of 16-bit microcontrollers of the  
Infineon C166 Family, the C167-class.  
As these microcontrollers provide a great extent of identical functionality it makes sense  
to describe a superset of the provided features. For this reason some sections of this  
manual do not refer to all the C167 derivatives that are offered (e.g. devices without a  
CAN interface). These sections contain respective notes wherever possible.  
The descriptions in this manual refer to the following derivatives of the C167-class:  
C167CR-LM  
C167CR-4RM  
Version with PLL, 2 KByte XRAM, CAN module  
Version with PLL, 2 KByte XRAM, 32 KByte ROM, CAN module  
C167CR-16RM Version with PLL, 2 KByte XRAM, 128 KByte ROM, CAN module  
C167SR-LM Version with PLL, 2 KByte XRAM  
This manual is valid for the versions with on-chip ROM or Flash memory of the  
mentioned derivatives as well as for the ROMless versions. Of course it refers to all  
devices of the different available temperature ranges and packages.  
For simplicity all these various versions are referred to by the term C167CR throughout  
this manual. The complete pro-electron conforming designations are listed in the  
respective data sheets.

Introduction  
1.1  
The Members of the 16-bit Microcontroller Family  
The microcontrollers of the Infineon 16-bit family have been designed to meet the high  
performance requirements of real-time embedded control applications. The architecture  
of this family has been optimized for high instruction throughput and minimum response  
time to external stimuli (interrupts). Intelligent peripheral subsystems have been  
integrated to reduce the need for CPU intervention to a minimum extent. This also  
minimizes the need for communication via the external bus interface. The high flexibility  
of this architecture allows to serve the diverse and varying needs of different application  
areas such as automotive, industrial control, or data communications.  
The core of the 16-bit family has been developed with a modular family concept in mind.  
All family members execute an efficient control-optimized instruction set (additional  
instructions for members of the second generation). This allows an easy and quick  
implementation of new family members with different internal memory sizes and  
technologies, different sets of on-chip peripherals and/or different numbers of IO pins.  
The XBUS concept opens a straight forward path for the integration of application  
specific peripheral modules in addition to the standard on-chip peripherals in order to  
build application specific derivatives.  
As programs for embedded control applications become larger, high level languages are  
favored by programmers, because high level language programs are easier to write, to  
debug and to maintain.  
The 80C166-type microcontrollers were the first generation of the 16-bit controller  
family. These devices have established the C166 architecture.  
The C165-type and C167-type devices are members of the second generation of this  
family. This second generation is even more powerful due to additional instructions for  
HLL support, an increased address space, increased internal RAM and highly efficient  
management of various resources on the external bus.  
Enhanced derivatives of this second generation provide additional features like  
additional internal high-speed RAM, an integrated CAN-Module, an on-chip PLL, etc.  
Utilizing integration to design efficient systems may require the integration of application  
specific peripherals to boost system performance, while minimizing the part count.  
These efforts are supported by the so-called XBUS, defined for the Infineon 16-bit  
microcontrollers (second generation). This XBUS is an internal representation of the  
external bus interface that opens and simplifies the integration of peripherals by  
standardizing the required interface. One representative taking advantage of this  
technology is the integrated CAN module.  
The C165-type devices are reduced versions of the C167 which provide a smaller  
package and reduced power consumption at the expense of the A/D converter, the  
CAPCOM units and the PWM module.

Introduction  
The C164-type devices and some of the C161-type devices are further enhanced by a  
flexible power management and form the third generation of the 16-bit controller family.  
This power management mechanism provides effective means to control the power that  
is consumed in a certain state of the controller and thus allows the minimization of the  
overall power consumption with respect to a given application.  
A variety of different versions is provided which offer various kinds of on-chip program  
memory:  
• Mask-programmable ROM  
• Flash memory  
• OTP memory  
• ROMless with no non-volatile memory at all.  
Also there are devices with specific functional units.  
The devices may be offered in different packages, temperature ranges and speed  
classes.  
More standard and application-specific derivatives are planned and in development.  
Note: Not all derivatives will be offered in any temperature range, speed class, package  
or program memory variation.  
Information about specific versions and derivatives will be made available with the  
devices themselves. Contact your Infineon representative for up-to-date material.  
Note: As the architecture and the basic features (i.e. CPU core and built in peripherals)  
are identical for most of the currently offered versions of the C167CR, the  
descriptions within this manual that refer to the “C167CR” also apply to the other  
variations, unless otherwise noted.

Architectural Overview  
The architecture of the C167CR combines the advantages of both RISC and CISC  
processors in a very well-balanced way. The sum of the features which are combined  
result in a high performance microcontroller, which is the right choice not only for today’s  
applications, but also for future engineering challenges. The C167CR not only integrates  
a powerful CPU core and a set of peripheral units into one chip, but also connects the  
units in a very efficient way. One of the four buses used concurrently on the C167CR is  
the XBUS, an internal representation of the external bus interface. This bus provides a  
standardized method of integrating application-specific peripherals to produce  
derivatives of the standard C167CR.

Architectural Overview  
2.1.1  
High Instruction Bandwidth/Fast Execution  
Based on the hardware provisions, most of the C167CR’s instructions can be executed  
in just one machine cycle, which requires 2 CPU clock cycles (2 × 1 / fCPU = 4 TCL). For  
example, shift and rotate instructions are always processed within one machine cycle,  
independent of the number of bits to be shifted.  
Branch-, multiply- and divide instructions normally take more than one machine cycle.  
These instructions, however, have also been optimized. For example, branch  
instructions only require an additional machine cycle, when a branch is taken, and most  
branches taken in loops require no additional machine cycles at all, due to the so-called  
‘Jump Cache’.  
A 32-bit/16-bit division takes 20 CPU clock cycles, a 16-bit × 16-bit multiplication takes  
10 CPU clock cycles.  
The instruction cycle time has been dramatically reduced through the use of instruction  
pipelining. This technique allows the core CPU to process portions of multiple sequential  
instruction stages in parallel. The following four stage pipeline provides the optimum  
balancing for the CPU core:  
FETCH: In this stage, an instruction is fetched from the internal ROM or RAM or from the  
external memory, based on the current IP value.  
DECODE: In this stage, the previously fetched instruction is decoded and the required  
operands are fetched.  
EXECUTE: In this stage, the specified operation is performed on the previously fetched  
operands.  
WRITE BACK: In this stage, the result is written to the specified location.  
If this technique were not used, each instruction would require four machine cycles. This  
increased performance allows a greater number of tasks and interrupts to be processed.  
Instruction Decoder  
Instruction decoding is primarily generated from PLA outputs based on the selected  
opcode. No microcode is used and each pipeline stage receives control signals staged  
in control registers from the decode stage PLAs. Pipeline holds are primarily caused by  
wait states for external memory accesses and cause the holding of signals in the control  
registers. Multiple-cycle instructions are performed through instruction injection and  
simple internal state machines which modify required control signals.

Architectural Overview  
High Function 8-bit and 16-bit Arithmetic and Logic Unit  
All standard arithmetic and logical operations are performed in a 16-bit ALU. In addition,  
for byte operations, signals are provided from bits six and seven of the ALU result to  
correctly set the condition flags. Multiple precision arithmetic is provided through a  
‘CARRY-IN’ signal to the ALU from previously calculated portions of the desired operation.  
Most internal execution blocks have been optimized to perform operations on either 8-bit  
or 16-bit quantities. Once the pipeline has been filled, one instruction is completed per  
machine cycle, except for multiply and divide. An advanced Booth algorithm has been  
incorporated to allow four bits to be multiplied and two bits to be divided per machine  
cycle. Thus, these operations use two coupled 16-bit registers, MDL and MDH, and  
require four and nine machine cycles, respectively, to perform a 16-bit by 16-bit (or 32-bit  
by 16-bit) calculation plus one machine cycle to setup and adjust the operands and the  
result. Even these longer multiply and divide instructions can be interrupted during their  
execution to allow for very fast interrupt response. Instructions have also been provided  
to allow byte packing in memory while providing sign extension of bytes for word wide  
arithmetic operations. The internal bus structure also allows transfers of bytes or words  
to or from peripherals based on the peripheral requirements.  
A set of consistent flags is automatically updated in the PSW after each arithmetic,  
logical, shift, or movement operation. These flags allow branching on specific conditions.  
Support for both signed and unsigned arithmetic is provided through user-specifiable  
branch tests. These flags are also preserved automatically by the CPU upon entry into  
an interrupt or trap routine.  
All targets for branch calculations are also computed in the central ALU.  
A 16-bit barrel shifter provides multiple bit shifts in a single cycle. Rotates and arithmetic  
shifts are also supported.  
Extended Bit Processing and Peripheral Control  
A large number of instructions has been dedicated to bit processing. These instructions  
provide efficient control and testing of peripherals while enhancing data manipulation.  
Unlike other microcontrollers, these instructions provide direct access to two operands  
in the bit-addressable space without requiring to move them into temporary flags.  
The same logical instructions available for words and bytes are also supported for bits.  
This allows the user to compare and modify a control bit for a peripheral in one  
instruction. Multiple bit shift instructions have been included to avoid long instruction  
streams of single bit shift operations. These are also performed in a single machine  
cycle.  
In addition, bit field instructions have been provided, which allow the modification of  
multiple bits from one operand in a single instruction.

Architectural Overview  
High Performance Branch-, Call-, and Loop Processing  
Due to the high percentage of branching in controller applications, branch instructions  
have been optimized to require one extra machine cycle only when a branch is taken.  
This is implemented by precalculating the target address while decoding the instruction.  
To decrease loop execution overhead, three enhancements have been provided:  
• The first solution provides single cycle branch execution after the first iteration of a  
loop. Thus, only one machine cycle is lost during the execution of the entire loop. In  
loops which fall through upon completion, no machine cycles are lost when exiting the  
loop. No special instructions are required to perform loops, and loops are  
automatically detected during execution of branch instructions.  
• The second loop enhancement allows the detection of the end of a table and avoids  
the use of two compare instructions embedded in loops. One simply places the lowest  
negative number at the end of the specific table, and specifies branching if neither this  
value nor the compared value have been found. Otherwise the loop is terminated if  
either condition has been met. The terminating condition can then be tested.  
• The third loop enhancement provides a more flexible solution than the Decrement and  
Skip on Zero instruction which is found in other microcontrollers. Through the use of  
Compare and Increment or Decrement instructions, the user can make comparisons  
to any value. This allows loop counters to cover any range. This is particularly  
advantageous in table searching.  
Saving of system state is automatically performed on the internal system stack avoiding  
the use of instructions to preserve state upon entry and exit of interrupt or trap routines.  
Call instructions push the value of the IP on the system stack, and require the same  
execution time as branch instructions.  
Instructions have also been provided to support indirect branch and call instructions.  
This supports implementation of multiple CASE statement branching in assembler  
macros and high level languages.

Consistent and Optimized Instruction Formats  
To obtain optimum performance in a pipelined design, an instruction set has been  
designed which incorporates concepts from Reduced Instruction Set Computing (RISC).  
These concepts primarily allow fast decoding of the instructions and operands while  
reducing pipeline holds. These concepts, however, do not preclude the use of complex  
instructions, which are required by microcontroller users. The following goals were used  
to design the instruction set:  
1. Provide powerful instructions to perform operations which currently require  
sequences of instructions and are frequently used. Avoid transfer into and out of  
temporary registers such as accumulators and carry bits. Perform tasks in parallel  
such as saving state upon entry into interrupt routines or subroutines.  
2. Avoid complex encoding schemes by placing operands in consistent fields for each  
instruction. Also avoid complex addressing modes which are not frequently used. This  
decreases the instruction decode time while also simplifying the development of  
compilers and assemblers.  
3. Provide most frequently used instructions with one-word instruction formats. All other  
instructions are placed into two-word formats. This allows all instructions to be placed  
on word boundaries, which alleviates the need for complex alignment hardware. It  
also has the benefit of increasing the range for relative branching instructions.  
The high performance offered by the hardware implementation of the CPU can efficiently  
be utilized by a programmer via the highly functional C167CR instruction set which  
includes the following instruction classes:  
• Arithmetic Instructions  
• Logical Instructions  
• Boolean Bit Manipulation Instructions  
• Compare and Loop Control Instructions  
• Shift and Rotate Instructions  
• Prioritize Instruction  
• Data Movement Instructions  
• System Stack Instructions  
• Jump and Call Instructions  
• Return Instructions  
• System Control Instructions  
• Miscellaneous Instructions  
Possible operand types are bits, bytes and words. Specific instruction support the  
conversion (extension) of bytes to words. A variety of direct, indirect or immediate  
addressing modes are provided to specify the required operands.

Programmable Multiple Priority Interrupt System  
The following enhancements have been included to allow processing of a large number  
of interrupt sources:  
1. Peripheral Event Controller (PEC): This processor is used to off-load many interrupt  
requests from the CPU. It avoids the overhead of entering and exiting interrupt or trap  
routines by performing single-cycle interrupt-driven byte or word data transfers  
between any two locations in segment 0 with an optional increment of either the PEC  
source or the destination pointer. Just one cycle is ‘stolen’ from the current CPU  
activity to perform a PEC service.  
2. Multiple Priority Interrupt Controller: This controller allows all interrupts to be placed at  
any specified priority. Interrupts may also be grouped, which provides the user with  
the ability to prevent similar priority tasks from interrupting each other. For each of the  
possible interrupt sources there is a separate control register, which contains an  
interrupt request flag, an interrupt enable flag and an interrupt priority bitfield. Once  
having been accepted by the CPU, an interrupt service can only be interrupted by a  
higher prioritized service request. For standard interrupt processing, each of the  
possible interrupt sources has a dedicated vector location.  
3. Multiple Register Banks: This feature allows the user to specify up to sixteen general  
purpose registers located anywhere in the internal RAM. A single one-machine-cycle  
instruction allows to switch register banks from one task to another.  
4. Interruptable Multiple Cycle Instructions: Reduced interrupt latency is provided by  
allowing multiple-cycle instructions (multiply, divide) to be interruptable.  
With an interrupt response time within a range from just 5 to 10 CPU clock cycles (in case  
of internal program execution), the C167CR is capable of reacting very fast on non-  
deterministic events.  
Its fast external interrupt inputs are sampled every CPU clock cycle and allow to  
recognize even very short external signals.  
The C167CR also provides an excellent mechanism to identify and to process  
exceptions or error conditions that arise during run-time, so called ‘Hardware Traps’.  
Hardware traps cause an immediate non-maskable system reaction which is similar to a  
standard interrupt service (branching to a dedicated vector table location). The  
occurrence of a hardware trap is additionally signified by an individual bit in the trap flag  
register (TFR). Except for another higher prioritized trap service being in progress, a  
hardware trap will interrupt any current program execution. In turn, hardware trap  
services can normally not be interrupted by standard or PEC interrupts.  
Software interrupts are supported by means of the ‘TRAP’ instruction in combination with  
an individual trap (interrupt) number.

The On-chip System Resources  
The C167CR controllers provide a number of powerful system resources designed  
around the CPU. The combination of CPU and these resources results in the high  
performance of the members of this controller family.  
Peripheral Event Controller (PEC) and Interrupt Control  
The Peripheral Event Controller allows to respond to an interrupt request with a single  
data transfer (word or byte) which only consumes one instruction cycle and does not  
require to save and restore the machine status. Each interrupt source is prioritized every  
machine cycle in the interrupt control block. If PEC service is selected, a PEC transfer is  
started. If CPU interrupt service is requested, the current CPU priority level stored in the  
PSW register is tested to determine whether a higher priority interrupt is currently being  
serviced. When an interrupt is acknowledged, the current state of the machine is saved  
on the internal system stack and the CPU branches to the system specific vector for the  
peripheral.  
The PEC contains a set of SFRs which store the count value and control bits for eight  
data transfer channels. In addition, the PEC uses a dedicated area of RAM which  
contains the source and destination addresses. The PEC is controlled similar to any  
other peripheral through SFRs containing the desired configuration of each channel.  
An individual PEC transfer counter is implicitly decremented for each PEC service  
except forming in the continuous transfer mode. When this counter reaches zero, a  
standard interrupt is performed to the vector location related to the corresponding  
source. PEC services are very well suited, for example, to move register contents to/from  
a memory table. The C167CR has 8 PEC channels each of which offers such fast  
interrupt-driven data transfer capabilities.  
Memory Areas  
The memory space of the C167CR is configured in a Von Neumann architecture which  
means that code memory, data memory, registers and IO ports are organized within the  
same linear address space which covers up to 16 MBytes. The entire memory space can  
be accessed bytewise or wordwise. Particular portions of the on-chip memory have  
additionally been made directly bit addressable.  
A 2 KByte 16-bit wide internal RAM (IRAM) provides fast access to General Purpose  
Registers (GPRs), user data (variables) and system stack. The internal RAM may also  
be used for code. A unique decoding scheme provides flexible user register banks in the  
internal memory while optimizing the remaining RAM for user data.

Architectural Overview  
The CPU has an actual register context consisting of up to 16 wordwide and/or bytewide  
GPRs at its disposal, which are physically located within the on-chip RAM area. A  
Context Pointer (CP) register determines the base address of the active register bank to  
be accessed by the CPU at a time. The number of register banks is only restricted by the  
available internal RAM space. For easy parameter passing, a register bank may overlap  
others.  
A system stack of up to 1024 words is provided as a storage for temporary data. The  
system stack is also located within the on-chip RAM area, and it is accessed by the CPU  
via the stack pointer (SP) register. Two separate SFRs, STKOV and STKUN, are  
implicitly compared against the stack pointer value upon each stack access for the  
detection of a stack overflow or underflow.  
Hardware detection of the selected memory space is placed at the internal memory  
decoders and allows the user to specify any address directly or indirectly and obtain the  
desired data without using temporary registers or special instructions.  
A 2 KByte 16-bit wide on-chip XRAM provides fast access to user data (variables),  
user stacks and code. The on-chip XRAM is realized as an X-Peripheral and appears to  
the software as an external RAM. Therefore it cannot store register banks and is not  
bitaddressable. The XRAM allows 16-bit accesses with maximum speed.  
For Special Function Registers 1024 Bytes of the address space are reserved. The  
standard Special Function Register area (SFR) uses 512 Bytes, while the Extended  
Special Function Register area (ESFR) uses the other 512 Bytes. (E)SFRs are wordwide  
registers which are used for controlling and monitoring functions of the different on-chip  
units. Unused (E)SFR addresses are reserved for future members of the C166 Family  
with enhanced functionality.  
An optional internal ROM provides for both code and constant data storage. This  
memory area is connected to the CPU via a 32-bit-wide bus. Thus, an entire double-word  
instruction can be fetched in just one machine cycle.  
Program execution from on-chip program memory is the fastest of all possible  
alternatives.  
The size of the on-chip ROM depends on the chosen derivative.

Architectural Overview  
External Bus Interface  
In order to meet the needs of designs where more memory is required than is provided  
on chip, up to 16 MBytes of external RAM and/or ROM can be connected to the  
microcontroller via its external bus interface. The integrated External Bus Controller  
(EBC) allows to access external memory and/or peripheral resources in a very flexible  
way. For up to five address areas the bus mode (multiplexed/demultiplexed), the data  
bus width (8-bit/16-bit) and even the length of a bus cycle (waitstates, signal delays) can  
be selected independently. This allows to access a variety of memory and peripheral  
components directly and with maximum efficiency. If the device does not run in Single  
Chip Mode, where no external memory is required, the EBC can control external  
accesses in one of the following external access modes:  
• 16-/18-/20-/24-bit Addresses, 16-bit Data, Demultiplexed  
• 16-/18-/20-/24-bit Addresses, 8-bit Data, Demultiplexed  
• 16-/18-/20-/24-bit Addresses, 16-bit Data, Multiplexed  
• 16-/18-/20-/24-bit Addresses, 8-bit Data, Multiplexed  
The demultiplexed bus modes use PORT1 for addresses and PORT0 for data input/  
output. The multiplexed bus modes use PORT0 for both addresses and data input/  
output. Port 4 is used for the upper address lines (A16 …) if selected.  
Important timing characteristics of the external bus interface (waitstates, ALE length and  
Read/Write Delay) have been made programmable to allow the user the adaption of a  
wide range of different types of memories and/or peripherals. Access to very slow  
memories or peripherals is supported via a particular ‘Ready’ function.  
For applications which require less than 64 KBytes of address space, a non-segmented  
memory model can be selected, where all locations can be addressed by 16-bits, and  
thus Port 4 is not needed as an output for the upper address bits (Axx … A16), as is the  
case when using the segmented memory model.  
The on-chip XBUS is an internal representation of the external bus and allows to access  
integrated application-specific peripherals/modules in the same way as external  
components. It provides a defined interface for these customized peripherals.  
The on-chip XRAM and the on-chip CAN-Module are examples for these X-Peripherals.

The On-chip Peripheral Blocks  
The C166 Family clearly separates peripherals from the core. This structure permits the  
maximum number of operations to be performed in parallel and allows peripherals to be  
added or deleted from family members without modifications to the core. Each functional  
block processes data independently and communicates information over common  
buses. Peripherals are controlled by data written to the respective Special Function  
Registers (SFRs). These SFRs are located either within the standard SFR area  
(00’FE00 … 00’FFFF ) or within the extended ESFR area (00’F000 … 00’F1FF ).

These built in peripherals either allow the CPU to interface with the external world, or  
provide functions on-chip that otherwise were to be added externally in the respective  
system.  
The C167CR generic peripherals are:  
• Two General Purpose Timer Blocks (GPT1 and GPT2)  
• Two Serial Interfaces (ASC0 and SSC)  
• A Watchdog Timer  
• Two 16-channel Capture/Compare units (CAPCOM1 and CAPCOM2)  
• A 4-channel Pulse Width Modulation unit  
• A 10-bit Analog/Digital Converter  
• Nine IO ports with a total of 111 IO lines  
Each peripheral also contains a set of Special Function Registers (SFRs), which control  
the functionality of the peripheral and temporarily store intermediate data results. Each  
peripheral has an associated set of status flags. Individually selected clock signals are  
generated for each peripheral from binary multiples of the CPU clock.  
Peripheral Interfaces  
The on-chip peripherals generally have two different types of interfaces, an interface to  
the CPU and an interface to external hardware. Communication between CPU and  
peripherals is performed through Special Function Registers (SFRs) and interrupts. The  
SFRs serve as control/status and data registers for the peripherals. Interrupt requests  
are generated by the peripherals based on specific events which occur during their  
operation (e.g. operation complete, error, etc.).  
For interfacing with external hardware, specific pins of the parallel ports are used, when  
an input or output function has been selected for a peripheral. During this time, the port  
pins are controlled by the peripheral (when used as outputs) or by the external hardware  
which controls the peripheral (when used as inputs). This is called the ‘alternate (input  
or output) function’ of a port pin, in contrast to its function as a general purpose IO pin.

Architectural Overview  
Peripheral Timing  
Internal operation of CPU and peripherals is based on the CPU clock (fCPU). The on-chip  
oscillator derives the CPU clock from the crystal or from the external clock signal. The  
clock signal which is gated to the peripherals is independent from the clock signal which  
feeds the CPU. During Idle mode the CPU’s clock is stopped while the peripherals  
continue their operation. Peripheral SFRs may be accessed by the CPU once per state.  
When an SFR is written to by software in the same state where it is also to be modified  
by the peripheral, the software write operation has priority. Further details on peripheral  
timing are included in the specific sections about each peripheral.  
Programming Hints  
Access to SFRs  
All SFRs reside in data page 3 of the memory space. The following addressing  
mechanisms allow to access the SFRs:  
• Indirect or direct addressing with 16-bit (mem) addresses must guarantee that the  
used data page pointer (DPP0 … DPP3) selects data page 3.  
• Accesses via the Peripheral Event Controller (PEC) use the SRCPx and DSTPx  
pointers instead of the data page pointers.  
Short 8-bit (reg) addresses to the standard SFR area do not use the data page  
pointers but directly access the registers within this 512 Byte area.  
Short 8-bit (reg) addresses to the extended ESFR area require switching to the  
512 Byte extended SFR area. This is done via the EXTension instructions EXTR,  
EXTP(R), EXTS(R).  
Byte write operations to word wide SFRs via indirect or direct 16-bit (mem) addressing  
or byte transfers via the PEC force zeros in the non-addressed byte. Byte write  
operations via short 8-bit (reg) addressing can only access the low byte of an SFR and  
force zeros in the high byte. It is therefore recommended, to use the bit field instructions  
(BFLDL and BFLDH) to write to any number of bits in either byte of an SFR without  
disturbing the non-addressed byte and the unselected bits.  
Reserved Bits  
Some of the bits which are contained in the C167CR’s SFRs are marked as ‘Reserved’.  
User software should never write ‘1’s to reserved bits. These bits are currently not  
implemented and may be used in future products to invoke new functions. In this case,  
the active state for these functions will be ‘1’, and the inactive state will be ‘0’. Therefore  
writing only ‘0’s to reserved locations provides portability of the current software to future  
devices. After read accesses reserved bits should be ignored or masked out.

Serial Channels  
Serial communication with other microcontrollers, processors, terminals or external  
peripheral components is provided by two serial interfaces with different functionality, an  
Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Channel (ASC0) and a High-Speed Synchronous  
Serial Channel (SSC).  
The ASC0 is upward compatible with the serial ports of the Infineon 8-bit microcontroller  
families. It supports full-duplex asynchronous communication at up to 780/1030 KBaud  
and half-duplex synchronous communication at up to 3.1/4.1 MBaud @ 25/33 MHz CPU  
clock.  
A dedicated baud rate generator allows to set up all standard baud rates without  
oscillator tuning. For transmission, reception and error handling 4 separate interrupt  
vectors are provided. In asynchronous mode, 8- or 9-bit data frames are transmitted or  
received, preceded by a start bit and terminated by one or two stop bits. For  
multiprocessor communication, a mechanism to distinguish address from data bytes has  
been included (8-bit data plus wake up bit mode).  
In synchronous mode, the ASC0 transmits or receives bytes (8 bits) synchronously to a  
shift clock which is generated by the ASC0. The ASC0 always shifts the LSB first. A loop  
back option is available for testing purposes.  
A number of optional hardware error detection capabilities has been included to increase  
the reliability of data transfers. A parity bit can automatically be generated on  
transmission or be checked on reception. Framing error detection allows to recognize  
data frames with missing stop bits. An overrun error will be generated, if the last  
character received has not been read out of the receive buffer register at the time the  
reception of a new character is complete.  
The SSC supports full-duplex synchronous communication at up to 6.25/8.25 Mbaud @  
25/33 MHz CPU clock. It may be configured so it interfaces with serially linked peripheral  
components. A dedicated baud rate generator allows to set up all standard baud rates  
without oscillator tuning. For transmission, reception and error handling 3 separate  
interrupt vectors are provided.  
The SSC transmits or receives characters of 2 … 16-bits length synchronously to a shift  
clock which can be generated by the SSC (master mode) or by an external master (slave  
mode). The SSC can start shifting with the LSB or with the MSB and allows the selection  
of shifting and latching clock edges as well as the clock polarity.  
A number of optional hardware error detection capabilities has been included to increase  
the reliability of data transfers. Transmit and receive error supervise the correct handling  
of the data buffer. Phase and baudrate error detect incorrect serial data.

The On-chip CAN Module  
The integrated CAN Module handles the completely autonomous transmission and  
reception of CAN frames in accordance with the CAN specification V2.0 part B (active),  
i.e. the on-chip CAN Module can receive and transmit standard frames with 11-bit  
identifiers as well as extended frames with 29-bit identifiers.  
The module provides Full CAN functionality on up to 15 message objects. Message  
object 15 may be configured for Basic CAN functionality. Both modes provide separate  
masks for acceptance filtering which allows to accept a number of identifiers in Full CAN  
mode and also allows to disregard a number of identifiers in Basic CAN mode. All  
message objects can be updated independent from the other objects and are equipped  
for the maximum message length of 8 Bytes.  
The bit timing is derived from the XCLK and is programmable up to a data rate of  
1 MBaud. The CAN Module uses two pins to interface to a bus transceiver.  
Note: The CAN Module is not part of all C167 derivatives. This description, of course,  
refers to those devices only which incorporate a CAN Module.  
Parallel Ports  
The C167CR provides up to 111 IO lines which are organized into eight input/output  
ports and one input port. All port lines are bit-addressable, and all input/output lines are  
individually (bit-wise) programmable as inputs or outputs via direction registers. The IO  
ports are true bidirectional ports which are switched to high impedance state when  
configured as inputs. The output drivers of five IO ports can be configured (pin by pin)  
for push/pull operation or open-drain operation via control registers. During the internal  
reset, all port pins are configured as inputs.  
All port lines have programmable alternate input or output functions associated with  
them. PORT0 and PORT1 may be used as address and data lines when accessing  
external memory, while Port 4 outputs the additional segment address bits A23/19/17 …  
A16 in systems where segmentation is used to access more than 64 KBytes of memory.  
Port 6 provides the optional bus arbitration signals (BREQ, HLDA, HOLD) and the chip  
select signals CS4 … CS0. Port 2 accepts the fast external interrupt inputs and provides  
inputs/outputs for the CAPCOM1 unit. Port 3 includes alternate functions of timers, serial  
interfaces, the optional bus control signal BHE and the system clock output (CLKOUT).  
Port 5 is used for timer control signals and for the analog inputs to the A/D Converter.  
Port 7 provides the output signals from the PWM unit and inputs/outputs for the  
CAPCOM2 unit (more on P1H). Port 8 provides inputs/outputs for the CAPCOM2 unit.  
Four pins of PORT1 may also be used as inputs for the CAPCOM2 unit. All port lines  
that are not used for these alternate functions may be used as general purpose IO lines.

A/D Converter  
For analog signal measurement, a 10-bit A/D converter with 16 multiplexed input  
channels and a sample and hold circuit has been integrated on-chip. It uses the method  
of successive approximation. The sample time (for loading the capacitors) and the  
conversion time is programmable and can so be adjusted to the external circuitry.  
Overrun error detection/protection is provided for the conversion result register  
(ADDAT): either an interrupt request will be generated when the result of a previous  
conversion has not been read from the result register at the time the next conversion is  
complete, or the next conversion is suspended in such a case until the previous result  
has been read.  
For applications which require less analog input channels, the remaining channel inputs  
can be used as digital input port pins.  
The A/D converter of the C167CR supports four different conversion modes. In the  
standard Single Channel conversion mode, the analog level on a specified channel is  
sampled once and converted to a digital result. In the Single Channel Continuous mode,  
the analog level on a specified channel is repeatedly sampled and converted without  
software intervention. In the Auto Scan mode, the analog levels on a prespecified  
number of channels are sequentially sampled and converted. In the Auto Scan  
Continuous mode, the number of prespecified channels is repeatedly sampled and  
converted. In addition, the conversion of a specific channel can be inserted (injected) into  
a running sequence without disturbing this sequence. This is called Channel Injection  
Mode.  
The Peripheral Event Controller (PEC) may be used to automatically store the  
conversion results into a table in memory for later evaluation, without requiring the  
overhead of entering and exiting interrupt routines for each data transfer.

General Purpose Timer (GPT) Unit  
The GPT units represent a very flexible multifunctional timer/counter structure which  
may be used for many different time related tasks such as event timing and counting,  
pulse width and duty cycle measurements, pulse generation, or pulse multiplication.  
The five 16-bit timers are organized in two separate modules, GPT1 and GPT2. Each  
timer in each module may operate independently in a number of different modes, or may  
be concatenated with another timer of the same module.  
Each timer can be configured individually for one of four basic modes of operation, which  
are Timer, Gated Timer, Counter Mode and Incremental Interface Mode (GPT1 timers).  
In Timer Mode the input clock for a timer is derived from the internal CPU clock divided  
by a programmable prescaler, while Counter Mode allows a timer to be clocked in  
reference to external events (via TxIN).  
Pulse width or duty cycle measurement is supported in Gated Timer Mode where the  
operation of a timer is controlled by the ‘gate’ level on its external input pin TxIN.  
In Incremental Interface Mode the GPT1 timers can be directly connected to the  
incremental position sensor signals A and B via the respective inputs TxIN and TxEUD.  
Direction and count signals are internally derived from these two input signals, so the  
contents of timer Tx corresponds to the sensor position. The third position sensor signal  
TOP0 can be connected to an interrupt input.  
The count direction (up/down) for each timer is programmable by software or may  
additionally be altered dynamically by an external signal (TxEUD) to facilitate e.g.  
position tracking.  
The core timers T3 and T6 have output toggle latches (TxOTL) which change their state  
on each timer over-flow/underflow. The state of these latches may be output on port pins  
(TxOUT) or may be used internally to concatenate the core timers with the respective  
auxiliary timers resulting in 32/33-bit timers/counters for measuring long time periods  
with high resolution.  
Various reload or capture functions can be selected to reload timers or capture a timer’s  
contents triggered by an external signal or a selectable transition of toggle latch TxOTL.  
The maximum resolution of the timers in module GPT1 is 8 CPU clock cycles (= 16 TCL).  
With their maximum resolution of 4 CPU clock cycles (= 8 TCL) the GPT2 timers provide  
precise event control and time measurement.

Capture/Compare (CAPCOM) Units  
The two CAPCOM units support generation and control of timing sequences on up to 32  
channels with a maximum resolution of 8 CPU clock cycles. The CAPCOM units are  
typically used to handle high speed IO tasks such as pulse and waveform generation,  
pulse width modulation (PWM), Digital to Analog (D/A) conversion, software timing, or  
time recording relative to external events.  
Four 16-bit timers (T0/T1, T7/T8) with reload registers provide two independent time  
bases for the capture/compare register array.  
The input clock for the timers is programmable to several prescaled values of the internal  
CPU clock, or may be derived from an overflow/underflow of timer T6 in module GPT2.  
This provides a wide range of variation for the timer period and resolution and allows  
precise adjustments to the application specific requirements. In addition, external count  
inputs for CAPCOM timers T0 and T7 allow event scheduling for the capture/compare  
registers relative to external events.  
Both of the two capture/compare register arrays contain 16 dual purpose capture/  
compare registers, each of which may be individually allocated to either CAPCOM timer  
T0 or T1 (T7 or T8, respectively), and programmed for capture or compare function.  
Each register has one port pin associated with it which serves as an input pin for  
triggering the capture function, or as an output pin (except for CC24 … CC27) to indicate  
the occurrence of a compare event.  
When a capture/compare register has been selected for capture mode, the current  
contents of the allocated timer will be latched (captured) into the capture/compare  
register in response to an external event at the port pin which is associated with this  
register. In addition, a specific interrupt request for this capture/compare register is  
generated. Either a positive, a negative, or both a positive and a negative external signal  
transition at the pin can be selected as the triggering event. The contents of all registers  
which have been selected for one of the five compare modes are continuously compared  
with the contents of the allocated timers. When a match occurs between the timer value  
and the value in a capture/compare register, specific actions will be taken based on the  
selected compare mode.

Pulse Width Modulation Unit  
The PWM Unit supports the generation of up to four independent high-speed PWM  
signals. It allows to generate standard (edge aligned) PWM signals as well as  
symmetrical (center aligned) PWM signals. In Burst Mode two channels may be  
combined with their output signals ANDed, where one channel gates the output signal of  
the other channel. Single Shot Mode allows to generate single output pulses  
(retriggerable) under software control. Each PWM channel is controlled by an up/down  
counter with associated reload and compare registers. The polarity of the PWM output  
signals may be controlled via the respective port output latch (combination via EXOR).  
Watchdog Timer  
The Watchdog Timer represents one of the fail-safe mechanisms which have been  
implemented to prevent the controller from malfunctioning for longer periods of time.  
The Watchdog Timer is always enabled after a reset of the chip, and can only be  
disabled in the time interval until the EINIT (end of initialization) instruction has been  
executed. Thus, the chip’s start-up procedure is always monitored. The software has to  
be designed to service the Watchdog Timer before it overflows. If, due to hardware or  
software related failures, the software fails to do so, the Watchdog Timer overflows and  
generates an internal hardware reset and pulls the RSTOUT pin low in order to allow  
external hardware components to reset.  
The Watchdog Timer is a 16-bit timer, clocked with the CPU clock divided either by 2 or by

value (stored in WDTREL) in order to allow further variation of the monitored time interval.  
Each time it is serviced by the application software, the high byte of the Watchdog Timer  
is reloaded. Thus, time intervals between 21 ms and 335 ms can be monitored @  
25 MHz (16 ms and 254 ms @ 33 MHz). The default Watchdog Timer interval after reset  
is 5.2/4.0 ms (@ 25/33 MHz).

Protected Bits  
The C167CR provides a special mechanism to protect bits which can be modified by the  
on-chip hardware from being changed unintentionally by software accesses to related  
bits (see also Chapter 4).

Memory Organization  
The memory space of the C167CR is configured in a “Von Neumann” architecture. This  
means that code and data are accessed within the same linear address space. All of the  
physically separated memory areas, including internal ROM/Flash/OTP (where  
integrated), internal RAM, the internal Special Function Register Areas (SFRs and  
ESFRs), the address areas for integrated XBUS peripherals and external memory are  
mapped into one common address space.  
The C167CR provides a total addressable memory space of 16 MBytes. This address  
space is arranged as 256 segments of 64 KBytes each, and each segment is again  
subdivided into four data pages of 16 KBytes each (see Figure 3-1).

Most internal memory areas are mapped into segment 0, the system segment. The  
upper 4 KByte of segment 0 (00’F000 … 00’FFFF ) hold the Internal RAM and Special  
H
H
Function Register Areas (SFR and ESFR). The lower 32 KByte of segment 0  
(00’0000 … 00’7FFF ) may be occupied by a part of the on-chip ROM/Flash/OTP  
H
H
memory and is called the Internal ROM area. This ROM area can be remapped to  
segment 1 (01’0000 … 01’7FFF ), to enable external memory access in the lower half  
H
H
of segment 0, or the internal ROM may be disabled at all.  
Code and data may be stored in any part of the internal memory areas, except for the  
SFR blocks, which may be used for control/data, but not for instructions.  
Note: Accesses to the internal ROM area on ROMless devices will produce  
unpredictable results.  
Bytes are stored at even or odd byte addresses. Words are stored in ascending memory  
locations with the low byte at an even byte address being followed by the high byte at  
the next odd byte address. Double words (code only) are stored in ascending memory  
locations as two subsequent words. Single bits are always stored in the specified bit  
position at a word address. Bit position 0 is the least significant bit of the byte at an even  
byte address, and bit position 15 is the most significant bit of the byte at the next odd  
byte address. Bit addressing is supported for a part of the Special Function Registers, a  
part of the internal RAM and for the General Purpose Registers.

Internal ROM Area  
The C167CR may reserve an address area of variable size (depending on the version)  
for on-chip mask-programmable ROM/Flash/OTP memory (organized as X × 32). The  
lower 32 KByte of this on-chip memory block are referred to as “Internal ROM Area”.  
Internal ROM accesses are globally enabled or disabled via bit ROMEN in register  
SYSCON. This bit is set during reset according to the level on pin EA, or may be altered  
via software. If enabled, the internal ROM area occupies the lower 32 KByte of either  
segment 0 or segment 1 (alternate ROM area). This mapping is controlled by bit ROMS1  
in register SYSCON.  
Note: The size of the internal ROM area is independent of the size of the actual  
implemented Program Memory. Also devices with less than 32 KByte of Program  
Memory or with no Program Memory at all will have this 32 KByte area occupied,  
if the Program Memory is enabled. Devices with a larger Program Memory provide  
the mapping option only for the internal ROM area.  
Devices with a Program Memory size above 32 KByte expand the ROM area from the  
middle of segment 1, i.e. starting at address 01’8000 .  
H
The internal Program Memory can be used for both code (instructions) and data  
(constants, tables, etc.) storage.  
Code fetches are always made on even byte addresses. The highest possible code  
storage location in the internal Program Memory is either xx’xxFE for single word  
H
instructions, or xx’xxFC for double word instructions. The respective location must contain  
H
a branch instruction (unconditional), because sequential boundary crossing from internal  
Program Memory to external memory is not supported and causes erroneous results.  
Any word and byte data read accesses may use the indirect or long 16-bit addressing  
modes. There is no short addressing mode for internal ROM operands. Any word data  
access is made to an even byte address. The highest possible word data storage  
location in the internal ROM is xx’xxFE . For PEC data transfers the internal Program  
H
Memory can be accessed independent of the contents of the DPP registers via the PEC  
source and destination pointers.  
The internal Program Memory is not provided for single bit storage, and therefore it is not  
bit addressable.  
Note: The ‘x’ in the locations above depend on the available Program Memory and on  
the mapping.  
The internal ROM may be enabled, disabled or mapped into segment 0 or segment 1  
under software control. Chapter 21 shows how to do this and reminds of the precautions  
that must be taken in order to prevent the system from crashing.

For all system stack operations the on-chip RAM is accessed via the Stack Pointer (SP)  
register. The stack grows downward from higher towards lower RAM address locations.  
Only word accesses are supported to the system stack. A stack overflow (STKOV) and  
a stack underflow (STKUN) register are provided to control the lower and upper limits of  
the selected stack area. These two stack boundary registers can be used not only for  
protection against data destruction, but also allow to implement a circular stack with  
hardware supported system stack flushing and filling (except for option ‘111’). The  
technique of implementing this circular stack is described in Chapter 21.

General Purpose Registers  
The General Purpose Registers (GPRs) use a block of 16 consecutive words within the  
internal RAM. The Context Pointer (CP) register determines the base address of the  
currently active register bank. This register bank may consist of up to 16 Word-GPRs  
(R0, R1, … R15) and/or of up to 16 Byte-GPRs (RL0, RH0, … RL7, RH7). The sixteen  
Byte-GPRs are mapped onto the first eight Word-GPRs (see Table 3-2).  
In contrast to the system stack, a register bank grows from lower towards higher address  
locations and occupies a maximum space of 32 Byte. The GPRs are accessed via short  
2-, 4-, or 8-bit addressing modes using the Context Pointer (CP) register as base  
address (independent of the current DPP register contents). Additionally, each bit in the  
currently active register bank can be accessed individually.

physically exist within the internal RAM at the same time. Only the register bank selected  
by the Context Pointer register (CP) is active at a given time, however. Selecting a new  
active register bank is simply done by updating the CP register. A particular Switch

Special Function Registers  
The functions of the CPU, the bus interface, the IO ports and the on-chip peripherals of  
the C167CR are controlled via a number of so-called Special Function Registers (SFRs).  
These SFRs are arranged within two areas of 512 Byte size each. The first register block,  
the SFR area, is located in the 512 Bytes above the internal RAM (00’FFFF …  
H
00’FE00 ), the second register block, the Extended SFR (ESFR) area, is located in the  
H
512 Bytes below the internal RAM (00’F1FF … 00’F000 ).  
H
H
Special function registers can be addressed via indirect and long 16-bit addressing  
modes. Using an 8-bit offset together with an implicit base address allows to address  
word SFRs and their respective low bytes. However, this does not work for the  
respective high bytes!  
Note: Writing to any byte of an SFR causes the non-addressed complementary byte to  
be cleared!  
The upper half of each register block is bit-addressable, so the respective control/status  
bits can directly be modified or checked using bit addressing.  
When accessing registers in the ESFR area using 8-bit addresses or direct bit  
addressing, an Extend Register (EXTR) instruction is required before, to switch the short  
addressing mechanism from the standard SFR area to the Extended SFR area. This is  
not required for 16-bit and indirect addresses. The GPRs R15 … R0 are duplicated, i.e.  
they are accessible within both register blocks via short 2-, 4- or 8-bit addresses without  
switching.

In order to minimize the use of the EXTR instructions the ESFR area mostly holds

need to be accessed frequently are allocated to the standard SFR area, wherever  
possible.  
Note: The tools are equipped to monitor accesses to the ESFR area and will  
automatically insert EXTR instructions, or issue a warning in case of missing or  
excessive EXTR instructions.

The On-Chip XRAM  
The C167CR provides access to 2 KByte of on-chip extension RAM. The XRAM is  
located within data page 3 (organized as 1 K × 16). As the XRAM is connected to the  
internal XBUS it is accessed like external memory, however, no external bus cycles are  
executed for these accesses. XRAM accesses are globally enabled or disabled via bit  
XPEN in register SYSCON. This bit is cleared after reset and may be set via software  
during the initialization to allow accesses to the on-chip XRAM. When the XRAM is  
disabled (default after reset) all accesses to the XRAM area are mapped to external  
locations. The XRAM may be used for both code (instructions) and data (variables, user  
stack, tables, etc.) storage.  
Code fetches are always made on even byte addresses. The highest possible code  
storage location in the XRAM is either 00’E7FE for single word instructions, or  
H
00’E7FC for double word instructions. The respective location must contain a branch  
H
instruction (unconditional), because sequential boundary crossing from XRAM to  
external memory is not supported and causes erroneous results.  
Any word and byte data read accesses may use the indirect or long 16-bit addressing  
modes. There is no short addressing mode for XRAM operands. Any word data access  
is made to an even byte address. The highest possible word data storage location in the  
XRAM is 00’E7FE . For PEC data transfers the XRAM can be accessed independent of  
H
the contents of the DPP registers via the PEC source and destination pointers.  
Note: As the XRAM appears like external memory it cannot be used for the C167CR’s  
system stack or register banks. The XRAM is not provided for single bit storage  
and therefore is not bitaddressable.  
The on-chip XRAM is accessed with the following bus cycles:  
• Normal ALE  
• No cycle time waitstates (no READY control)  
• No tristate time waitstate  
• No Read/Write delay  
• 16-bit demultiplexed bus cycles (4 TCL)  
Even if the XRAM is used like external memory it does not occupy BUSCONx/  
ADDRSELx registers but rather is selected via additional dedicated XBCON/XADRS  
registers. These registers are mask-programmed and are not user accessible. With  
these registers the address area 00’E000 to 00’E7FF is reserved for XRAM accesses.

XRAM Access via External Masters  
In X-Peripheral Share mode (bit XPER-SHARE in register SYSCON is set) the on-chip  
XRAM of the C167CR can be accessed by an external master during hold mode via the  
C167CR’s bus interface. These external accesses must use the same configuration as  
internally programmed (see above). No waitstates are required. In X-Peripheral Share  
mode the C167CR bus interface reverses its direction, i.e. address lines (PORT1,  
Port 4), control signals (RD, WR), and BHE must be driven by the external master.  
Note: The configuration in register SYSCON cannot be changed after the execution of  
the EINIT instruction.

External Memory Space  
The C167CR is capable of using an address space of up to 16 MByte. Only parts of this  
address space are occupied by internal memory areas. All addresses which are not used  
for on-chip memory (ROM/Flash/OTP or RAM) or for registers may reference external  
memory locations. This external memory is accessed via the C167CR’s external bus  
interface.  
Four memory bank sizes are supported:  
• Non-segmented mode: 64 KByte with A15 … A0 on PORT0 or PORT1  
• 2-bit segmented mode: 256 KByte with A17 … A16 on Port 4  
and A15 … A0 on PORT0 or PORT1  
• 4-bit segmented mode: 1 MByte with A19 … A16 on Port 4  
and A15 … A0 on PORT0 or PORT1  
• 8-bit segmented mode: 16 MByte with A22 … A16 on Port 4  
and A15 … A0 on PORT0 or PORT1  
Each bank can be directly addressed via the address bus, while the programmable chip  
select signals can be used to select various memory banks.  
The C167CR also supports four different bus types:  
• Multiplexed 16-bit Bus  
• Multiplexed 8-bit Bus  
with address and data on PORT0 (Default after Reset)  
with address and data on PORT0/P0L  
• Demultiplexed 16-bit Bus with address on PORT1 and data on PORT0  
• Demultiplexed 8-bit Bus with address on PORT1 and data on P0L  
Memory model and bus mode are selected during reset by pin EA and PORT0 pins. For  
further details about the external bus configuration and control please refer to Chapter 9.  
External word and byte data can only be accessed via indirect or long 16-bit addressing  
modes using one of the four DPP registers. There is no short addressing mode for  
external operands. Any word data access is made to an even byte address.  
For PEC data transfers the external memory in segment 0 can be accessed independent  
of the contents of the DPP registers via the PEC source and destination pointers.  
The external memory is not provided for single bit storage and therefore it is not  
bitaddressable.

these blocks (code or data) or areas requires special attention to ensure that the  
controller executes the desired operations.  
Memory Areas are partitions of the address space that represent different kinds of  
memory (if provided at all). These memory areas are the internal RAM/SFR area, the  
internal ROM/Flash/OTP (if available), the on-chip X-Peripherals (if integrated) and the  
external memory.  
Accessing subsequent data locations that belong to different memory areas is no  
problem. However, when executing code, the different memory areas must be switched  
explicitly via branch instructions. Sequential boundary crossing is not supported and  
leads to erroneous results.  
Note: Changing from the external memory area to the internal RAM/SFR area takes  
place within segment 0.  
Segments are contiguous blocks of 64 KByte each. They are referenced via the code  
segment pointer CSP for code fetches and via an explicit segment number for data  
accesses overriding the standard DPP scheme.  
During code fetching segments are not changed automatically, but rather must be  
switched explicitly. The instructions JMPS, CALLS and RETS will do this.  
In larger sequential programs make sure that the highest used code location of a  
segment contains an unconditional branch instruction to the respective following  
segment, to prevent the prefetcher from trying to leave the current segment.  
Data Pages are contiguous blocks of 16 KByte each. They are referenced via the data  
page pointers DPP3 … 0 and via an explicit data page number for data accesses  
overriding the standard DPP scheme. Each DPP register can select one of the possible  
1024 data pages. The DPP register that is used for the current access is selected via the  
two upper bits of the 16-bit data address. Subsequent 16-bit data addresses that cross  
the 16 KByte data page boundaries therefore will use different data page pointers, while  
the physical locations need not be subsequent within memory.

Protection of the On-chip Mask ROM  
The on-chip mask ROM of the C167CR can be protected against read accesses of both  
code and data. ROM protection is established during the production process of the  
device (a ROM mask can be ordered with a ROM protection or without it). No software  
control is possible, i.e. the ROM protection cannot be disabled or enabled by software.  
When a device has been produced with ROM protection active, the ROM contents are  
protected against unauthorized access by the following measures:  
No data read accesses to the internal ROM by any instruction which is executed from  
any location outside the on-chip mask ROM (including IRAM, XRAM, and external  
memory).  
A program cannot read any data out of the protected ROM from outside.  
The read data will be replaced by the default value 009B for any read access to any  
H
location.  
No codes fetches from the internal ROM by any instruction which is executed from  
any location outside the on-chip mask ROM (including IRAM, XRAM, and external  
memory).  
A program cannot branch to a location within the protected ROM from outside. This  
applies to JUMPs as well as to RETurns, i.e. a called routine within RAM or external  
memory can never return to the protected ROM.  
The fetched code will be replaced by the default value 009BH for any access to any  
location. This default value will be decoded as the instruction “TRAP #00” which will  
restart program execution at location 00’0000 .  
H
Note: ROM protection may be used for applications where the complete software fits into  
the on-chip ROM, or where the on-chip ROM holds an initialization software which  
is then replaced by an external (e.g.) application software. In the latter case no  
data (constants, tables, etc.) can be stored within the ROM. The ROM itself should  
be mapped to segment 1 before branching outside, so an interrupt vector table  
can established in external memory.

The Central Processing Unit (CPU)  
Basic tasks of the CPU are to fetch and decode instructions, to supply operands for the  
arithmetic and logic unit (ALU), to perform operations on these operands in the ALU, and  
to store the previously calculated results. As the CPU is the main engine of the C167CR  
controller, it is also affected by certain actions of the peripheral subsystem.  
Since a four stage pipeline is implemented in the C167CR, up to four instructions can be  
processed in parallel. Most instructions of the C167CR are executed in one machine  
cycle (2 CPU clock periods) due to this parallelism.  
This chapter describes how the pipeline works for sequential and branch instructions in  
general, and which hardware provisions have been made to speed the execution of jump  
instructions in particular. The general instruction timing is described including standard  
and exceptional timing.  
While internal memory accesses are normally performed by the CPU itself, external  
peripheral or memory accesses are performed by a particular on-chip External Bus  
Controller (EBC), which is automatically invoked by the CPU whenever a code or data  
address refers to the external address space.

The Central Processing Unit (CPU)  
If possible, the CPU continues operating while an external memory access is in  
progress. If external data are required but are not yet available, or if a new external  
memory access is requested by the CPU, before a previous access has been completed,  
the CPU will be held by the EBC until the request can be satisfied. The EBC is described  
in a dedicated chapter.  
The on-chip peripheral units of the C167CR work nearly independent of the CPU with a  
separate clock generator. Data and control information is interchanged between the  
CPU and these peripherals via Special Function Registers (SFRs).  
Whenever peripherals need a non-deterministic CPU action, an on-chip Interrupt  
Controller compares all pending peripheral service requests against each other and  
prioritizes one of them. If the priority of the current CPU operation is lower than the  
priority of the selected peripheral request, an interrupt will occur.  
Basically, there are two types of interrupt processing:  
Standard interrupt processing forces the CPU to save the current program status  
and the return address on the stack before branching to the interrupt vector jump  
table.  
PEC interrupt processing steals just one machine cycle from the current CPU  
activity to perform a single data transfer via the on-chip Peripheral Event Controller  
(PEC).  
System errors detected during program execution (so-called hardware traps) or an  
external non-maskable interrupt are also processed as standard interrupts with a very  
high priority.  
In contrast to other on-chip peripherals, there is a closer conjunction between the  
watchdog timer and the CPU. If enabled, the watchdog timer expects to be serviced by  
the CPU within a programmable period of time, otherwise it will reset the chip. Thus, the  
watchdog timer is able to prevent the CPU from going totally astray when executing  
erroneous code. After reset, the watchdog timer starts counting automatically, but it can  
be disabled via software, if desired.  
Beside its normal operation there are the following particular CPU states:  
Reset state: Any reset (hardware, software, watchdog) forces the CPU into a  
predefined active state.  
IDLE state: The clock signal to the CPU itself is switched off, while the clocks for the  
on-chip peripherals keep running.  
POWER DOWN state: All of the on-chip clocks are switched off (RTC clock selectable),  
all inputs are disregarded.  
A transition into an active CPU state is forced by an interrupt (if being in IDLE) or by a  
reset (if being in POWER DOWN mode).  
The IDLE, POWER DOWN, and RESET states can be entered by particular C167CR  
system control instructions.

Instruction Pipelining  
The instruction pipeline of the C167CR partitiones instruction processing into four stages  
of which each one has its individual task:  
1st FETCH: In this stage the instruction selected by the Instruction Pointer (IP) and  
the Code Segment Pointer (CSP) is fetched from either the internal ROM, internal RAM,  
or external memory.  
2nd DECODE: In this stage the instructions are decoded and, if required, the operand  
addresses are calculated and the respective operands are fetched. For all instructions,  
which implicitly access the system stack, the SP register is either decremented or  
incremented, as specified. For branch instructions the Instruction Pointer and the Code  
Segment Pointer are updated with the desired branch target address (provided that the  
branch is taken).  
3rd EXECUTE: In this stage an operation is performed on the previously fetched  
operands in the ALU. Additionally, the condition flags in the PSW register are updated  
as specified by the instruction. All explicit writes to the SFR memory space and all auto-  
increment or auto-decrement writes to GPRs used as indirect address pointers are  
performed during the execute stage of an instruction, too.  
4th WRITE BACK: In this stage all external operands and the remaining operands  
within the internal RAM space are written back.  
A particularity of the C167CR are the so-called injected instructions. These injected  
instructions are generated internally by the machine to provide the time needed to  
process instructions, which cannot be processed within one machine cycle. They are  
automatically injected into the decode stage of the pipeline, and then they pass through  
the remaining stages like every standard instruction. Program interrupts are performed  
by means of injected instructions, too. Although these internally injected instructions will  
not be noticed in reality, they are introduced here to ease the explanation of the pipeline  
in the following.

Sequential Instruction Processing  
Each single instruction has to pass through each of the four pipeline stages regardless  
of whether all possible stage operations are really performed or not. Since passing  
through one pipeline stage takes at least one machine cycle, any isolated instruction  
takes at least four machine cycles to be completed. Pipelining, however, allows parallel  
(i.e. simultaneous) processing of up to four instructions. Thus, most of the instructions  
seem to be processed during one machine cycle as soon as the pipeline has been filled  
once after reset (see Figure 4-2).  
Instruction pipelining increases the average instruction throughput considered over a  
certain period of time. In the following, any execution time specification of an instruction  
always refers to the average execution time due to pipelined parallel instruction  
processing.

Standard Branch Instruction Processing  
Instruction pipelining helps to speed sequential program processing. In the case that a  
branch is taken, the instruction which has already been fetched providently is mostly not  
the instruction which must be decoded next. Thus, at least one additional machine cycle  
is normally required to fetch the branch target instruction. This extra machine cycle is  
provided by means of an injected instruction (see Figure 4-3).

If a conditional branch is not taken, there is no deviation from the sequential program  
flow, and thus no extra time is required. In this case the instruction after the branch  
instruction will enter the decode stage of the pipeline at the beginning of the next  
machine cycle after decode of the conditional branch instruction.  
Cache Jump Instruction Processing  
The C167CR incorporates a jump cache to optimize conditional jumps, which are  
processed repeatedly within a loop. Whenever a jump on cache is taken, the extra time  
to fetch the branch target instruction can be saved and thus the corresponding cache  
jump instruction in most cases takes only one machine cycle.  
This performance is achieved by the following mechanism:  
Whenever a cache jump instruction passes through the decode stage of the pipeline for  
the first time (and provided that the jump condition is met), the jump target instruction is  
fetched as usual, causing a time delay of one machine cycle. In contrast to standard  
branch instructions, however, the target instruction of a cache jump instruction (JMPA,  
JMPR, JB, JBC, JNB, JNBS) is additionally stored in the cache after having been fetched.  
After each repeatedly following execution of the same cache jump instruction, the jump  
target instruction is not fetched from program memory but taken from the cache and  
immediately injected into the decode stage of the pipeline (see Figure 4-4).  
A time saving jump on cache is always taken after the second and any further occurrence  
of the same cache jump instruction, unless an instruction which, has the fundamental  
capability of changing the CSP register contents (JMPS, CALLS, RETS, TRAP, RETI),  
or any standard interrupt has been processed during the period of time between two  
following occurrences of the same cache jump instruction.

Particular Pipeline Effects  
Since up to four different instructions are processed simultaneously, additional hardware  
has been spent in the C167CR to consider all causal dependencies which may exist on  
instructions in different pipeline stages without a loss of performance. This extra  
hardware (i.e. for ‘forwarding’ operand read and write values) resolves most of the  
possible conflicts (e.g. multiple usage of buses) in a time optimized way and thus avoids  
that the pipeline becomes noticeable for the user in most cases. However, there are  
some very rare cases, where the circumstance that the C167CR is a pipelined machine  
requires attention by the programmer. In these cases the delays caused by pipeline  
conflicts can be used for other instructions in order to optimize performance.  
Context Pointer Updating  
An instruction, which calculates a physical GPR operand address via the CP register, is  
mostly not capable of using a new CP value, which is to be updated by an immediately  
preceding instruction. Thus, to make sure that the new CP value is used, at least one  
instruction must be inserted between a CP-changing and a subsequent GPR-using  
instruction, as shown in the following example:  
I
I
I
:SCXT CP,#0FC00h ;select a new context  
n
:…  
;must not be an instruction using a GPR  
;write to GPR 0 in the new context  
n + 1  
n + 2  
:MOV R0,#dataX  
Data Page Pointer Updating  
An instruction, which calculates a physical operand address via a particular DPPn  
(n = 0 to 3) register, is mostly not capable of using a new DPPn register value, which is  
to be updated by an immediately preceding instruction. Thus, to make sure that the new  
DPPn register value is used, at least one instruction must be inserted between a DPPn-  
changing instruction and a subsequent instruction which implicitly uses DPPn via a long  
or indirect addressing mode, as shown in the following example:  
I
I
I
:MOV DPP0,#4  
:…  
;select data page 4 via DPP0

Explicit Stack Pointer Updating  
None of the RET, RETI, RETS, RETP or POP instructions is capable of correctly using  
a new SP register value, which is to be updated by an immediately preceding instruction.  
Thus, in order to use the new SP register value without erroneously performed stack  
accesses, at least one instruction must be inserted between an explicitly SP-writing and  
any subsequent of the just mentioned implicitly SP-using instructions, as shown in the  
following example:  
I
I
:MOV SP,#0FA40H ;select a new top of stack  
n
:…  
;must not be an instruction popping operands  
;from the system stack  
n + 1  
I
:POP R0  
;pop word value from new top of stack into  
n + 2  
R0  
Note: Conflicts with instructions writing to the stack (PUSH, CALL, SCXT) are solved  
internally by the CPU logic.  
Controlling Interrupts  
Software modifications (implicit or explicit) of the PSW are done in the execute phase of  
the respective instructions. In order to maintain fast interrupt responses, however, the  
current interrupt prioritization round does not consider these changes, i.e. an interrupt  
request may be acknowledged after the instruction that disables interrupts via IEN or  
ILVL or after the following instructions. Timecritical instruction sequences therefore  
should not begin directly after the instruction disabling interrupts, as shown in the  
following examples:  
INTERRUPTS_OFF:  
BCLR IEN  
;globally disable interrupts  
<Instr non-crit>  
<Instr 1st-crit>  
;non-critical instruction  
;begin of uninterruptable critical sequence  
<Instr last-crit>  
INTERRUPTS_ON:  
BSET IEN  
;end of uninterruptable critical sequence  
;globally re-enable interrupts  
CRITICAL_SEQUENCE:  
ATOMIC #3  
BCLR IEN  
;immediately block interrupts  
;globally disable interrupts  
;here is the uninterruptable sequence  
;globally re-enable interrupts  
BSET IEN  
Note: The described delay of 1 instruction also applies for enabling the interrupts system  
i.e. no interrupt requests are acknowledged until the instruction following the  
enabling instruction.

External Memory Access Sequences  
The effect described here will only become noticeable, when watching the external  
memory access sequences on the external bus (e.g. by means of a Logic Analyzer).  
Different pipeline stages can simultaneously put a request on the External Bus Controller  
(EBC). The sequence of instructions processed by the CPU may diverge from the  
sequence of the corresponding external memory accesses performed by the EBC, due  
to the predefined priority of external memory accesses:  
1st  
2nd  
3rd  
Write Data  
Fetch Code  
Read Data.  
Initialization of Port Pins  
Modifications of the direction of port pins (input or output) become effective only after the  
instruction following the modifying instruction. As bit instructions (BSET, BCLR) use  
internal read-modify-write sequences accessing the whole port, instructions modifying  
the port direction should be followed by an instruction that does not access the same port  
(see example below).  
PORT_INIT_WRONG:  
BSET DP3.13  
BSET P3.9  
;change direction of P3.13 to output  
;P3.13 is still input,  
;rd-mod-wr reads pin P3.13  
PORT_INIT_RIGHT:  
BSET DP3.13  
NOP  
;change direction of P3.13 to output  
;any instruction not accessing port 3  
;P3.13 is now output,  
BSET P3.9  
;rd-mod-wr reads P3.13’s output latch  
Note: Special attention must be paid to interrupt service routines that modify the same  
port as the software they have interrupted.  
Changing the System Configuration  
The instruction following an instruction that changes the system configuration via register  
SYSCON (e.g. the mapping of the internal ROM, segmentation, stack size) cannot use  
the new resources (e.g. ROM or stack). In these cases an instruction that does not  
access these resources should be inserted. Code accesses to the new ROM area are  
only possible after an absolute branch to this area.  
Note: As a rule, instructions that change ROM mapping should be executed from  
internal RAM or external memory.

BUSCON/ADDRSEL  
The instruction following an instruction that changes the properties of an external  
address area cannot access operands within the new area. In these cases an instruction  
that does not access this address area should be inserted. Code accesses to the new  
address area should be made after an absolute branch to this area.  
Note: As a rule, instructions that change external bus properties should not be executed  
from the respective external memory area.  
Timing  
Instruction pipelining reduces the average instruction processing time in a wide scale  
(from four to one machine cycles, mostly). However, there are some rare cases, where  
a particular pipeline situation causes the processing time for a single instruction to be  
extended either by a half or by one machine cycle. Although this additional time  
represents only a tiny part of the total program execution time, it might be of interest to  
avoid these pipeline-caused time delays in time critical program modules.  
Besides a general execution time description, Section 4.3 provides some hints on how  
to optimize time-critical program parts with regard to such pipeline-caused timing  
particularities.

Bit-Handling and Bit-Protection  
The C167CR provides several mechanisms to manipulate bits. These mechanisms  
either manipulate software flags within the internal RAM, control on-chip peripherals via  
control bits in their respective SFRs or control IO functions via port pins.  
The instructions BSET, BCLR, BAND, BOR, BXOR, BMOV, BMOVN explicitly set or  
clear specific bits. The instructions BFLDL and BFLDH allow to manipulate up to 8 bits  
of a specific byte at one time. The instructions JBC and JNBS implicitly clear or set the  
specified bit when the jump is taken. The instructions JB and JNB (also conditional jump  
instructions that refer to flags) evaluate the specified bit to determine if the jump is to be  
taken.  
Note: Bit operations on undefined bit locations will always read a bit value of ‘0’, while  
the write access will not effect the respective bit location.  
All instructions that manipulate single bits or bit groups internally use a read-modify-write  
sequence that accesses the whole word, which contains the specified bit(s).  
This method has several consequences:  
• Bits can only be modified within the internal address areas, i.e. internal RAM and  
SFRs. External locations cannot be used with bit instructions.  
The upper 256 Bytes of the SFR area, the ESFR area and the internal RAM are bit-  
addressable (see Chapter 3), i.e. those register bits located within the respective  
sections can be directly manipulated using bit instructions. The other SFRs must be  
accessed byte/word wise.  
Note: All GPRs are bit-addressable independent of the allocation of the register bank via  
the context pointer CP. Even GPRs which are allocated to not bit-addressable  
RAM locations provide this feature.  
• The read-modify-write approach may be critical with hardware-effected bits. In these  
cases the hardware may change specific bits while the read-modify-write operation is  
in progress, where the writeback would overwrite the new bit value generated by the  
hardware. The solution is either the implemented hardware protection (see below) or  
realized through special programming (see Chapter 4.2).  
Protected bits are not changed during the read-modify-write sequence, i.e. when  
hardware sets e.g. an interrupt request flag between the read and the write of the read-  
modify-write sequence. The hardware protection logic guarantees that only the intended  
bit(s) is/are effected by the write-back operation.  
Note: If a conflict occurs between a bit manipulation generated by hardware and an  
intended software access the software access has priority and determines the  
final value of the respective bit.  
A summary of the protected bits implemented in the C167CR can be found at the end of  
Chapter 2.

Instruction State Times  
Basically, the time to execute an instruction depends on where the instruction is fetched  
from, and where possible operands are read from or written to. The fastest processing  
mode of the C167CR is to execute a program fetched from the internal code memory. In  
that case most of the instructions can be processed within just one machine cycle, which  
is also the general minimum execution time.  
All external memory accesses are performed by the C167CR’s on-chip External Bus  
Controller (EBC), which works in parallel with the CPU.  
This section summarizes the execution times in a very condensed way. A detailed  
description of the execution times for the various instructions and the specific exceptions  
can be found in the “C166 Family Instruction Set Manual”.  
Table 4-1 shows the minimum execution times required to process a C167CR  
instruction fetched from the internal code memory, the internal RAM or from external  
memory. These execution times apply to most of the C167CR instructions - except some  
of the branches, the multiplication, the division and a special move instruction. In case  
of internal ROM program execution there is no execution time dependency on the  
instruction length except for some special branch situations. The numbers in the table  
are in units of CPU clock cycles and assume no waitstates.

system state information, to supply the ALU with register-addressable constants and to  
control system and bus configuration, multiply and divide ALU operations, code memory  
segmentation, data memory paging, and accesses to the General Purpose Registers  
and the System Stack.  
The access mechanism for these SFRs in the CPU core is identical to the access  
mechanism for any other SFR. Since all SFRs can simply be controlled by means of any  
instruction, which is capable of addressing the SFR memory space, a lot of flexibility has  
been gained, without the need to create a set of system-specific instructions.  
Note, however, that there are user access restrictions for some of the CPU core SFRs  
to ensure proper processor operations. The instruction pointer IP and code segment  
pointer CSP cannot be accessed directly at all. They can only be changed indirectly via  
branch instructions.  
The PSW, SP, and MDC registers can be modified not only explicitly by the programmer,  
but also implicitly by the CPU during normal instruction processing. Note that any explicit  
write request (via software) to an SFR supersedes a simultaneous modification by  
hardware of the same register.  
Note: Any write operation to a single byte of an SFR clears the non-addressed  
complementary byte within the specified SFR.  
Non-implemented (reserved) SFR bits cannot be modified, and will always supply  
a read value of 0’.

System Clock Output Enable (CLKEN)  
The system clock output function is enabled by setting bit CLKEN in register SYSCON  
to ‘1’. If enabled, port pin P3.15 takes on its alternate function as CLKOUT output pin.  
The clock output is a 50% duty cycle clock (except for direct drive operation where  
CLKOUT reflects the clock input signal, and for slowdown operation where CLKOUT  
mirrors the CPU clock signal) whose frequency equals the CPU operating frequency  
(fOUT = fCPU).  
Note: The output driver of port pin P3.15 is switched on automatically, when the  
CLKOUT function is enabled. The port direction bit is disregarded.  
After reset, the clock output function is disabled (CLKEN = ‘0’).  
In emulation mode the CLKOUT function is enabled automatically.  
Segmentation Disable/Enable Control (SGTDIS)  
Bit SGTDIS allows to select either the segmented or non-segmented memory mode.  
In non-segmented memory mode (SGTDIS = ‘1’) it is assumed that the code address  
space is restricted to 64 KBytes (segment 0) and thus 16 bits are sufficient to represent  
all code addresses. For implicit stack operations (CALL or RET) the CSP register is  
totally ignored and only the IP is saved to and restored from the stack.  
In segmented memory mode (SGTDIS = ‘0’) it is assumed that the whole address  
space is available for instructions. For implicit stack operations (CALL or RET) the CSP  
register and the IP are saved to and restored from the stack. After reset the segmented  
memory mode is selected.  
Note: Bit SGTDIS controls if the CSP register is pushed onto the system stack in addition  
to the IP register before an interrupt service routine is entered, and it is repopped  
when the interrupt service routine is left again.  
System Stack Size (STKSZ)  
This bitfield defines the size of the physical system stack, which is located in the internal  
RAM of the C167CR. An area of 32 … 512 words or all of the internal RAM may be  
dedicated to the system stack. A so-called “circular stack” mechanism allows to use a  
bigger virtual stack than this dedicated RAM area.  
These techniques as well as the encoding of bitfield STKSZ are described in more detail  
in Chapter 21.

ALU Status (N, C, V, Z, E, MULIP)  
The condition flags (N, C, V, Z, E) within the PSW indicate the ALU status due to the last  
recently performed ALU operation. They are set by most of the instructions due to  
specific rules, which depend on the ALU or data movement operation performed by an  
instruction.

The Central Processing Unit (CPU)  
After execution of an instruction which explicitly updates the PSW register, the condition  
flags cannot be interpreted as described in the following, because any explicit write to  
the PSW register supersedes the condition flag values, which are implicitly generated by  
the CPU. Explicitly reading the PSW register supplies a read value which represents the  
state of the PSW register after execution of the immediately preceding instruction.  
Note: After reset, all of the ALU status bits are cleared.  
N-Flag: For most of the ALU operations, the N-flag is set to ‘1’, if the most significant bit  
of the result contains a ‘1’, otherwise it is cleared. In the case of integer operations the  
N-flag can be interpreted as the sign bit of the result (negative: N = ‘1’, positive: N = ‘0’).  
Negative numbers are always represented as the 2’s complement of the corresponding  
positive number. The range of signed numbers extends from ‘– 8000 ’ to ‘+ 7FFF ’ for  
H
H
the word data type, or from ‘– 80 ’ to ‘+ 7F ’ for the byte data type.For Boolean bit  
H
H
operations with only one operand the N-flag represents the previous state of the  
specified bit. For Boolean bit operations with two operands the N-flag represents the  
logical XORing of the two specified bits.  
C-Flag: After an addition the C-flag indicates that a carry from the most significant bit of  
the specified word or byte data type has been generated. After a subtraction or a  
comparison the C-flag indicates a borrow, which represents the logical negation of a  
carry for the addition.  
This means that the C-flag is set to ‘1’, if no carry from the most significant bit of the  
specified word or byte data type has been generated during a subtraction, which is  
performed internally by the ALU as a 2’s complement addition, and the C-flag is cleared  
when this complement addition caused a carry.  
The C-flag is always cleared for logical, multiply and divide ALU operations, because  
these operations cannot cause a carry anyhow.  
For shift and rotate operations the C-flag represents the value of the bit shifted out last.  
If a shift count of zero is specified, the C-flag will be cleared. The C-flag is also cleared  
for a prioritize ALU operation, because a ‘1’ is never shifted out of the MSB during the  
normalization of an operand.  
For Boolean bit operations with only one operand the C-flag is always cleared. For  
Boolean bit operations with two operands the C-flag represents the logical ANDing of the  
two specified bits.  
V-Flag: For addition, subtraction and 2’s complementation the V-flag is always set to ‘1’,  
if the result overflows the maximum range of signed numbers, which are representable  
by either 16 bits for word operations (‘– 8000 ’ to ‘+ 7FFF ’), or by 8 bits for byte  
H
H
operations (‘– 80 ’ to ‘+ 7F ’), otherwise the V-flag is cleared. Note that the result of an  
H
H
integer addition, integer subtraction, or 2’s complement is not valid, if the V-flag indicates  
an arithmetic overflow.  
For multiplication and division the V-flag is set to ‘1’, if the result cannot be represented  
in a word data type, otherwise it is cleared. Note that a division by zero will always cause  
an overflow. In contrast to the result of a division, the result of a multiplication is valid

regardless of whether the V-flag is set to ‘1’ or not.  
Since logical ALU operations cannot produce an invalid result, the V-flag is cleared by  
these operations.  
The V-flag is also used as ‘Sticky Bit’ for rotate right and shift right operations. With only  
using the C-flag, a rounding error caused by a shift right operation can be estimated up  
to a quantity of one half of the LSB of the result. In conjunction with the V-flag, the C-flag  
allows evaluating the rounding error with a finer resolution (see Table 4-2).  
For Boolean bit operations with only one operand the V-flag is always cleared. For  
Boolean bit operations with two operands the V-flag represents the logical ORing of the  
two specified bits.

Z-Flag: The Z-flag is normally set to ‘1’, if the result of an ALU operation equals zero,  
otherwise it is cleared.  
For the addition and subtraction with carry the Z-flag is only set to ‘1’, if the Z-flag already  
contains a ‘1’ and the result of the current ALU operation additionally equals zero. This  
mechanism is provided for the support of multiple precision calculations.  
For Boolean bit operations with only one operand the Z-flag represents the logical  
negation of the previous state of the specified bit. For Boolean bit operations with two  
operands the Z-flag represents the logical NORing of the two specified bits. For the  
prioritize ALU operation the Z-flag indicates, if the second operand was zero or not.  
E-Flag: The E-flag can be altered by instructions, which perform ALU or data movement  
operations. The E-flag is cleared by those instructions which cannot be reasonably used  
for table search operations. In all other cases the E-flag is set depending on the value of  
the source operand to signify whether the end of a search table is reached or not. If the  
value of the source operand of an instruction equals the lowest negative number, which  
is representable by the data format of the corresponding instruction (‘8000 ’ for the word  
H
data type, or ‘80 ’ for the byte data type), the E-flag is set to ‘1’, otherwise it is cleared.  
H
MULIP-Flag: The MULIP-flag will be set to ‘1’ by hardware upon the entrance into an  
interrupt service routine, when a multiply or divide ALU operation was interrupted before  
completion. Depending on the state of the MULIP bit, the hardware decides whether a  
multiplication or division must be continued or not after the end of an interrupt service.  
The MULIP bit is overwritten with the contents of the stacked MULIP-flag when the  
return-from-interrupt-instruction (RETI) is executed. This normally means that the  
MULIP-flag is cleared again after that.

Note: The MULIP flag is a part of the task environment! When the interrupting service  
routine does not return to the interrupted multiply/divide instruction (i.e. in case of  
a task scheduler that switches between independent tasks), the MULIP flag must  
be saved as part of the task environment and must be updated accordingly for the  
new task before this task is entered.  
CPU Interrupt Status (IEN, ILVL)  
The Interrupt Enable bit allows to globally enable (IEN = ‘1’) or disable (IEN = ‘0’)  
interrupts. The four-bit Interrupt Level field (ILVL) specifies the priority of the current CPU  
activity. The interrupt level is updated by hardware upon entry into an interrupt service  
routine, but it can also be modified via software to prevent other interrupts from being  
acknowledged. In case an interrupt level ‘15’ has been assigned to the CPU, it has the  
highest possible priority, and thus the current CPU operation cannot be interrupted  
except by hardware traps or external non-maskable interrupts. For details please refer  
to Chapter 5.  
After reset all interrupts are globally disabled, and the lowest priority (ILVL = 0) is  
assigned to the initial CPU activity.  
The Instruction Pointer IP  
This register determines the 16-bit intra-segment address of the currently fetched  
instruction within the code segment selected by the CSP register. The IP register is not  
mapped into the C167CR’s address space, and thus it is not directly accessable by the  
programmer. The IP can, however, be modified indirectly via the stack by means of a  
return instruction.  
The IP register is implicitly updated by the CPU for branch instructions and after  
instruction fetch operations.

Code memory addresses are generated by directly extending the 16-bit contents of the  
IP register by the contents of the CSP register as shown in Figure 4-5.  
In case of the segmented memory mode the selected number of segment address bits  
(via bitfield SALSEL) of register CSP is output on the respective segment address pins  
of Port 4 for all external code accesses. For non-segmented memory mode or Single  
Chip Mode the content of this register is not significant, because all code acccesses are  
automatically restricted to segment 0.  
Note: The CSP register can only be read but not written by data operations. It is,  
however, modified either directly by means of the JMPS and CALLS instructions,  
or indirectly via the stack by means of the RETS and RETI instructions.  
Upon the acceptance of an interrupt or the execution of a software TRAP  
instruction, the CSP register is automatically set to zero.

Bit  
Function  
DPPxPN  
Data Page Number of DPPx  
Specifies the data page selected via DPPx. Only the least significant two  
bits of DPPx are significant, when segmentation is disabled.  
The DPP registers are implicitly used, whenever data accesses to any memory location  
are made via indirect or direct long 16-bit addressing modes (except for override  
accesses via EXTended instructions and PEC data transfers). After reset, the Data Page  
Pointers are initialized in a way that all indirect or direct long 16-bit addresses result in  
identical 18-bit addresses. This allows to access data pages 3 … 0 within segment 0 as  
shown in Figure 4-6. If the user does not want to use any data paging, no further action  
is required.  
Data paging is performed by concatenating the lower 14 bits of an indirect or direct long  
16-bit address with the contents of the DPP register selected by the upper two bits of the  
16-bit address. The contents of the selected DPP register specify one of the  
1024 possible data pages. This data page base address together with the 14-bit page  
offset forms the physical 24-bit address (selectable part is driven to the address pins).  
In case of non-segmented memory mode, only the two least significant bits of the  
implicitly selected DPP register are used to generate the physical address. Thus,  
extreme care should be taken when changing the content of a DPP register, if a non-  
segmented memory model is selected, because otherwise unexpected results could  
occur.  
In case of the segmented memory mode the selected number of segment address bits  
(via bitfield SALSEL) of the respective DPP register is output on the respective segment  
address pins of Port 4 for all external data accesses.  
A DPP register can be updated via any instruction, which is capable of modifying an SFR.  
Note: Due to the internal instruction pipeline, a new DPP value is not yet usable for the  
operand address calculation of the instruction immediately following the  
instruction updating the DPP register.

Register Bank Selection via Register CP  
Several addressing modes use register CP implicitly for address calculations. The  
addressing modes mentioned below are described in Chapter 23.  
Short 4-Bit GPR Addresses (mnemonic: Rw or Rb) specify an address relative to the  
memory location specified by the contents of the CP register, i.e. the base of the current  
register bank.  
Depending on whether a relative word (Rw) or byte (Rb) GPR address is specified, the  
short 4-bit GPR address is either multiplied by two or not before it is added to the  
content of register CP (see Figure 4-8). Thus, both byte and word GPR accesses are  
possible in this way.  
GPRs used as indirect address pointers are always accessed wordwise. For some  
instructions only the first four GPRs can be used as indirect address pointers. These  
GPRs are specified via short 2-bit GPR addresses. The respective physical address  
calculation is identical to that for the short 4-bit GPR addresses.  
Short 8-Bit Register Addresses (mnemonic: reg or bitoff) within a range from F0 to  
H
FF interpret the four least significant bits as short 4-bit GPR address, while the four  
H
most significant bits are ignored. The respective physical GPR address calculation is  
identical to that for the short 4-bit GPR addresses. For single bit accesses on a GPR, the  
GPR’s word address is calculated as just described, but the position of the bit within the  
word is specified by a separate additional 4-bit value.

Implicit CP Use by Short GPR Addressing Modes  
The Stack Pointer SP  
This non-bit addressable register is used to point to the top of the internal system stack  
(TOS). The SP register is pre-decremented whenever data is to be pushed onto the  
stack, and it is post-incremented whenever data is to be popped from the stack. Thus,  
the system stack grows from higher toward lower memory locations.  
Since the least significant bit of register SP is tied to ‘0’ and bits 15 through 12 are tied  
to ‘1’ by hardware, the SP register can only contain values from F000 to FFFE . This  
H
H
allows to access a physical stack within the internal RAM of the C167CR. A virtual stack  
(usually bigger) can be realized via software. This mechanism is supported by registers  
STKOV and STKUN (see respective descriptions below).  
The SP register can be updated via any instruction, which is capable of modifying an SFR.  
Note: Due to the internal instruction pipeline, a POP or RETURN instruction must not  
immediately follow an instruction updating the SP register.

The Stack Overflow Trap (entered when (SP) < (STKOV)) may be used in two different  
ways:  
Fatal error indication treats the stack overflow as a system error through the  
associated trap service routine. Under these circumstances data in the bottom of the  
stack may have been overwritten by the status information stacked upon servicing the  
stack overflow trap.  
Automatic system stack flushing allows to use the system stack as a ‘Stack Cache’  
for a bigger external user stack. In this case register STKOV should be initialized to a  
value, which represents the desired lowest Top of Stack address plus 12 according to  
the selected maximum stack size. This considers the worst case that will occur, when  
a stack overflow condition is detected just during entry into an interrupt service routine.  
Then, six additional stack word locations are required to push IP, PSW, and CSP for  
both the interrupt service routine and the hardware trap service routine.  
More details about the stack overflow trap service routine and virtual stack management  
are given in Chapter 21.

More details about the stack underflow trap service routine and virtual stack  
management are given in Chapter 21.  
Scope of Stack Limit Control  
The stack limit control realized by the register pair STKOV and STKUN detects cases  
where the stack pointer SP is moved outside the defined stack area either by ADD or  
SUB instructions or by PUSH or POP operations (explicit or implicit, i.e. CALL or RET  
instructions).  
This control mechanism is not triggered, i.e. no stack trap is generated, when  
• the stack pointer SP is directly updated via MOV instructions  
• the limits of the stack area (STKOV, STKUN) are changed, so that SP is outside of the  
new limits.

Interrupt and Trap Functions  
The architecture of the C167CR supports several mechanisms for fast and flexible  
response to service requests that can be generated from various sources internal or  
external to the microcontroller.  
These mechanisms include:  
Normal Interrupt Processing  
The CPU temporarily suspends the current program execution and branches to an  
interrupt service routine in order to service an interrupt requesting device. The current  
program status (IP, PSW, in segmentation mode also CSP) is saved on the internal  
system stack. A prioritization scheme with 16 priority levels allows the user to specify the  
order in which multiple interrupt requests are to be handled.  
Interrupt Processing via the Peripheral Event Controller (PEC)  
A faster alternative to normal software controlled interrupt processing is servicing an  
interrupt requesting device with the C167CR’s integrated Peripheral Event Controller  
(PEC). Triggered by an interrupt request, the PEC performs a single word or byte data  
transfer between any two locations in segment 0 (data pages 0 through 3) through one  
of eight programmable PEC Service Channels. During a PEC transfer the normal  
program execution of the CPU is halted for just 1 instruction cycle. No internal program  
status information needs to be saved. The same prioritization scheme is used for PEC  
service as for normal interrupt processing. PEC transfers share the 2 highest priority  
levels.  
Trap Functions  
Trap functions are activated in response to special conditions that occur during the  
execution of instructions. A trap can also be caused externally by the Non-Maskable  
Interrupt pin NMI. Several hardware trap functions are provided for handling erroneous  
conditions and exceptions that arise during the execution of an instruction. Hardware  
traps always have highest priority and cause immediate system reaction. The software  
trap function is invoked by the TRAP instruction, which generates a software interrupt for  
a specified interrupt vector. For all types of traps the current program status is saved on  
the system stack.  
External Interrupt Processing  
Although the C167CR does not provide dedicated interrupt pins, it allows to connect  
external interrupt sources and provides several mechanisms to react on external events,  
including standard inputs, non-maskable interrupts and fast external interrupts. These  
interrupt functions are alternate port functions, except for the non-maskable interrupt and  
the reset input.

Interrupt and Trap Functions  
5.1  
Interrupt System Structure  
The C167CR provides 56 separate interrupt nodes that may be assigned to 16 priority  
levels. In order to support modular and consistent software design techniques, most  
sources of an interrupt or PEC request are supplied with a separate interrupt control  
register and interrupt vector. The control register contains the interrupt request flag, the  
interrupt enable bit, and the interrupt priority of the associated source. Each source  
request is then activated by one specific event, depending on the selected operating  
mode of the respective device. For efficient usage of the resources also multi-source  
interrupt nodes are incorporated. These nodes can be activated by several source  
requests, e.g. as different kinds of errors in the serial interfaces. However, specific status  
flags which identify the type of error are implemented in the serial channels’ control  
registers.  
The C167CR provides a vectored interrupt system. In this system specific vector  
locations in the memory space are reserved for the reset, trap, and interrupt service  
functions. Whenever a request occurs, the CPU branches to the location that is  
associated with the respective interrupt source. This allows direct identification of the  
source that caused the request. The only exceptions are the class B hardware traps,  
which all share the same interrupt vector. The status flags in the Trap Flag Register  
(TFR) can then be used to determine which exception caused the trap. For the special  
software TRAP instruction, the vector address is specified by the operand field of the  
instruction, which is a seven bit trap number.  
The reserved vector locations build a jump table in the low end of the C167CR’s address  
space (segment 0). The jump table is made up of the appropriate jump instructions that  
transfer control to the interrupt or trap service routines, which may be located anywhere  
within the address space. The entries of the jump table are located at the lowest  
addresses in code segment 0 of the address space. Each entry occupies 2 words,  
except for the reset vector and the hardware trap vectors, which occupy 4 or 8 words.  
Table 5-1 lists all sources that are capable of requesting interrupt or PEC service in the  
C167CR, the associated interrupt vectors, their locations and the associated trap  
numbers. It also lists the mnemonics of the affected Interrupt Request flags and their  
corresponding Interrupt Enable flags. The mnemonics are composed of a part that  
specifies the respective source, followed by a part that specifies their function  
(IR = Interrupt Request flag, IE = Interrupt Enable flag).  
Note: Each entry of the interrupt vector table provides room for two word instructions or  
one doubleword instruction. The respective vector location results from multiplying  
the trap number by 4 (4 Bytes per entry).  
All interrupt nodes that are currently not used by their associated modules or are  
not connected to a module in the actual derivative may be used to generate  
software controlled interrupt requests by setting the respective IR flag.

Table 5-2 lists the vector locations for hardware traps and the corresponding status flags  
in register TFR. It also lists the priorities of trap service for cases, where more than one  
trap condition might be detected within the same instruction. After any reset (hardware  
reset, software reset instruction SRST, or reset by watchdog timer overflow) program  
execution starts at the reset vector at location 00’0000 . Reset conditions have priority  
H
over every other system activity and therefore have the highest priority (trap priority III).  
Software traps may be initiated to any vector location between 00’0000 and 00’01FC .

A service routine entered via a software TRAP instruction is always executed on the  
current CPU priority level which is indicated in bit field ILVL in register PSW. This means  
that routines entered via the software TRAP instruction can be interrupted by all  
hardware traps or higher level interrupt requests.

Interrupt and Trap Functions  
Normal Interrupt Processing and PEC Service  
During each instruction cycle one out of all sources which require PEC or interrupt  
processing is selected according to its interrupt priority. This priority of interrupts and  
PEC requests is programmable in two levels. Each requesting source can be assigned  
to a specific priority. A second level (called “group priority”) allows to specify an internal  
order for simultaneous requests from a group of different sources on the same priority  
level. At the end of each instruction cycle the one source request with the highest current  
priority will be determined by the interrupt system. This request will then be serviced, if  
its priority is higher than the current CPU priority in register PSW.  
Interrupt System Register Description  
Interrupt processing is controlled globally by register PSW through a general interrupt  
enable bit (IEN) and the CPU priority field (ILVL). Additionally the different interrupt  
sources are controlled individually by their specific interrupt control registers (… IC).  
Thus, the acceptance of requests by the CPU is determined by both the individual  
interrupt control registers and the PSW. PEC services are controlled by the respective  
PECCx register and the source and destination pointers, which specify the task of the  
respective PEC service channel.  
5.1.1  
Interrupt Control Registers  
All interrupt control registers are organized identically. The lower 8 bits of an interrupt  
control register contain the complete interrupt status information of the associated  
source, which is required during one round of prioritization, the upper 8 bits of the  
respective register are reserved. All interrupt control registers are bit-addressable and all  
bits can be read or written via software. This allows each interrupt source to be  
programmed or modified with just one instruction. When accessing interrupt control  
registers through instructions which operate on word data types, their upper 8 bits  
(15 … 8) will return zeros, when read, and will discard written data.  
The layout of the Interrupt Control registers shown below applies to each xxIC register,  
where xx stands for the mnemonic for the respective source.

‘0’: No request pending  
‘1’: This source has raised an interrupt request  
The Interrupt Request Flag is set by hardware whenever a service request from the  
respective source occurs. It is cleared automatically upon entry into the interrupt service  
routine or upon a PEC service. In the case of PEC service the Interrupt Request flag  
remains set, if the COUNT field in register PECCx of the selected PEC channel  
decrements to zero. This allows a normal CPU interrupt to respond to a completed PEC  
block transfer.  
Note: Modifying the Interrupt Request flag via software causes the same effects as if it  
had been set or cleared by hardware.

Interrupt Priority Level and Group Level  
The four bits of bit field ILVL specify the priority level of a service request for the  
arbitration of simultaneous requests. The priority increases with the numerical value of  
ILVL, so 0000 is the lowest and 1111 is the highest priority level.  
B
B
When more than one interrupt request on a specific level gets active at the same time,  
the values in the respective bit fields GLVL are used for second level arbitration to select  
one request for being serviced. Again the group priority increases with the numerical  
value of GLVL, so 00 is the lowest and 11 is the highest group priority.  
B
B
Note: All interrupt request sources that are enabled and programmed to the same  
priority level must always be programmed to different group priorities. Otherwise  
an incorrect interrupt vector will be generated.  
Upon entry into the interrupt service routine, the priority level of the source that won the  
arbitration and who’s priority level is higher than the current CPU level, is copied into bit  
field ILVL of register PSW after pushing the old PSW contents on the stack.  
The interrupt system of the C167CR allows nesting of up to 15 interrupt service routines  
of different priority levels (level 0 cannot be arbitrated).  
Interrupt requests that are programmed to priority levels 15 or 14 (i.e. ILVL = 111X ) will  
B
be serviced by the PEC, unless the COUNT field of the associated PECC register  
contains zero. In this case the request will instead be serviced by normal interrupt  
processing. Interrupt requests that are programmed to priority levels 13 through 1 will  
always be serviced by normal interrupt processing.  
Note: Priority level 0000 is the default level of the CPU. Therefore a request on level 0  
B
will never be serviced, because it can never interrupt the CPU. However, an  
enabled interrupt request on level 0000 will terminate the C167CR’s Idle mode  
B
and reactivate the CPU.  
For interrupt requests which are to be serviced by the PEC, the associated PEC channel  
number is derived from the respective ILVL (LSB) and GLVL (see Figure 5-1). So  
programming a source to priority level 15 (ILVL = 1111 ) selects the PEC channel group  
B
7 … 4, programming a source to priority level 14 (ILVL = 1110 ) selects the PEC channel  
B
group 3 … 0. The actual PEC channel number is then determined by the group priority  
field GLVL.  
Simultaneous requests for PEC channels are prioritized according to the PEC channel  
number, where channel 0 has lowest and channel 8 has highest priority.  
Note: All sources that request PEC service must be programmed to different PEC  
channels. Otherwise an incorrect PEC channel may be activated.

The Processor Status Word (PSW) is functionally divided into 2 parts: the lower byte of  
the PSW basically represents the arithmetic status of the CPU, the upper byte of the  
PSW controls the interrupt system of the C167CR and the arbitration mechanism for the  
external bus interface.  
Note: Pipeline effects have to be considered when enabling/disabling interrupt requests  
via modifications of register PSW (see Chapter 4).

Interrupt and Trap Functions  
CPU priority ILVL defines the current level for the operation of the CPU. This bit field  
reflects the priority level of the routine that is currently executed. Upon the entry into an  
interrupt service routine this bit field is updated with the priority level of the request that  
is being serviced. The PSW is saved on the system stack before. The CPU level  
determines the minimum interrupt priority level that will be serviced. Any request on the  
same or a lower level will not be acknowledged.  
The current CPU priority level may be adjusted via software to control which interrupt  
request sources will be acknowledged.  
PEC transfers do not really interrupt the CPU, but rather “steal” a single cycle, so PEC  
services do not influence the ILVL field in the PSW.  
Hardware traps switch the CPU level to maximum priority (i.e. 15) so no interrupt or PEC  
requests will be acknowledged while an exception trap service routine is executed.  
Note: The TRAP instruction does not change the CPU level, so software invoked trap  
service routines may be interrupted by higher requests.  
Interrupt Enable bit IEN globally enables or disables PEC operation and the  
acceptance of interrupts by the CPU. When IEN is cleared, no new interrupt requests are  
accepted by the CPU. Requests that already have entered the pipeline at that time will  
process, however. When IEN is set to ‘1’, all interrupt sources, which have been  
individually enabled by the interrupt enable bits in their associated control registers, are  
globally enabled.  
Note: Traps are non-maskable and are therefore not affected by the IEN bit.

Operation of the PEC Channels  
The C167CR’s Peripheral Event Controller (PEC) provides 8 PEC service channels,  
which move a single byte or word between two locations in segment 0 (data pages  
3 … 0). This is the fastest possible interrupt response and in many cases is sufficient to  
service the respective peripheral request (e.g. serial channels, etc.). Each channel is  
controlled by a dedicated PEC Channel Counter/Control register (PECCx) and a pair of  
pointers for source (SRCPx) and destination (DSTPx) of the data transfer.  
The PECC registers control the action that is performed by the respective PEC channel.

Byte/Word Transfer bit BWT controls, if a byte or a word is moved during a PEC service  
cycle. This selection controls the transferred data size and the increment step for the  
modified pointer.  
Increment Control field INC controls, if one of the PEC pointers is incremented after  
the PEC transfer. It is not possible to increment both pointers, however. If the pointers  
are not modified (INC = ‘00’), the respective channel will always move data from the  
same source to the same destination.  
Note: The reserved combination ‘11’ is changed to ‘10’ by hardware. However, it is not  
recommended to use this combination.  
The PEC Transfer Count Field COUNT controls the action of a respective PEC channel,  
where the content of bit field COUNT at the time the request is activated selects the  
action. COUNT may allow a specified number of PEC transfers, unlimited transfers or no  
PEC service at all.  
Table 5-5 summarizes, how the COUNT field itself, the interrupt requests flag IR and the  
PEC channel action depends on the previous content of COUNT.

Continuous transfers are selected by the value FF in bit field COUNT. In this case  
H
COUNT is not modified and the respective PEC channel services any request until it is  
disabled again.  
When COUNT is decremented from 01 to 00 after a transfer, the request flag is not  
H
H
cleared, which generates another request from the same source. When COUNT already  
contains the value 00 , the respective PEC channel remains idle and the associated  
H
interrupt service routine is activated instead. This allows to choose, if a level 15 or 14  
request is to be serviced by the PEC or by the interrupt service routine.  
Note: PEC transfers are only executed, if their priority level is higher than the CPU level,  
i.e. only PEC channels 7 4 are processed, while the CPU executes on level 14.  
All interrupt request sources that are enabled and programmed for PEC service  
should use different channels. Otherwise only one transfer will be performed for  
all simultaneous requests. When COUNT is decremented to 00 , and the CPU is  
H
to be interrupted, an incorrect interrupt vector will be generated.  
The source and destination pointers specifiy the locations between which the data is  
to be moved. A pair of pointers (SRCPx and DSTPx) is associated with each of the 8  
PEC channels. These pointers do not reside in specific SFRs, but are mapped into the  
internal RAM of the C167CR just below the bit-addressable area (see Figure 5-2).

PEC data transfers do not use the data page pointers DPP3 … DPP0. The PEC source  
and destination pointers are used as 16-bit intra-segment addresses within segment 0,  
so data can be transferred between any two locations within the first four data pages  
3 … 0.  
The pointer locations for inactive PEC channels may be used for general data storage.  
Only the required pointers occupy RAM locations.  
Note: If word data transfer is selected for a specific PEC channel (i.e. BWT = ‘0’), the  
respective source and destination pointers must both contain a valid word address  
which points to an even byte boundary. Otherwise the Illegal Word Access trap will  
be invoked, when this channel is used.

Prioritization of Interrupt and PEC Service Requests  
Interrupt and PEC service requests from all sources can be enabled, so they are  
arbitrated and serviced (if they win), or they may be disabled, so their requests are  
disregarded and not serviced.  
Enabling and disabling interrupt requests may be done via three mechanisms:  
Control bits allow to switch each individual source “ON” or “OFF”, so it may generate a  
request or not. The control bits (xxIE) are located in the respective interrupt control  
registers. All interrupt requests may be enabled or disabled generally via bit IEN in  
register PSW. This control bit is the “main switch” that selects, if requests from any  
source are accepted or not.  
For a specific request to be arbitrated the respective source’s enable bit and the global  
enable bit must both be set.  
The priority level automatically selects a certain group of interrupt requests that will be  
acknowledged, disclosing all other requests. The priority level of the source that won the  
arbitration is compared against the CPU’s current level and the source is only serviced,  
if its level is higher than the current CPU level. Changing the CPU level to a specific value  
via software blocks all requests on the same or a lower level. An interrupt source that is  
assigned to level 0 will be disabled and never be serviced.  
The ATOMIC and EXTend instructions automatically disable all interrupt requests for  
the duration of the following 1 … 4 instructions. This is useful e.g. for semaphore  
handling and does not require to re-enable the interrupt system after the unseparable  
instruction sequence (see Chapter 21).  
Interrupt Class Management  
An interrupt class covers a set of interrupt sources with the same importance, i.e. the  
same priority from the system’s viewpoint. Interrupts of the same class must not interrupt  
each other. The C167CR supports this function with two features:  
Classes with up to 4 members can be established by using the same interrupt priority  
(ILVL) and assigning a dedicated group level (GLVL) to each member. This functionality  
is built-in and handled automatically by the interrupt controller.  
Classes with more than 4 members can be established by using a number of adjacent  
interrupt priorities (ILVL) and the respective group levels (4 per ILVL). Each interrupt  
service routine within this class sets the CPU level to the highest interrupt priority within  
the class. All requests from the same or any lower level are blocked now, i.e. no request  
of this class will be accepted.

The example below establishes 3 interrupt classes which cover 2 or 3 interrupt priorities,  
depending on the number of members in a class. A level 6 interrupt disables all other  
sources in class 2 by changing the current CPU level to 8, which is the highest priority  
(ILVL) in class 2. Class 1 requests or PEC requests are still serviced in this case.  
The 24 interrupt sources (excluding PEC requests) are so assigned to 3 classes of  
priority rather than to 7 different levels, as the hardware support would do.

Saving the Status During Interrupt Service  
Before an interrupt request that has been arbitrated is actually serviced, the status of the  
current task is automatically saved on the system stack. The CPU status (PSW) is saved  
along with the location, where the execution of the interrupted task is to be resumed after  
returning from the service routine. This return location is specified through the Instruction  
Pointer (IP) and, in case of a segmented memory model, the Code Segment Pointer  
(CSP). Bit SGTDIS in register SYSCON controls, how the return location is stored.  
The system stack receives the PSW first, followed by the IP (unsegmented) or followed  
by CSP and then IP (segmented mode). This optimizes the usage of the system stack,  
if segmentation is disabled.  
The CPU priority field (ILVL in PSW) is updated with the priority of the interrupt request  
that is to be serviced, so the CPU now executes on the new level. If a multiplication or  
division was in progress at the time the interrupt request was acknowledged, bit MULIP  
in register PSW is set to ‘1’. In this case the return location that is saved on the stack is  
not the next instruction in the instruction flow, but rather the multiply or divide instruction  
itself, as this instruction has been interrupted and will be completed after returning from  
the service routine.

Task Status saved on the System Stack  
The interrupt request flag of the source that is being serviced is cleared. The IP is loaded  
with the vector associated with the requesting source (the CSP is cleared in case of  
segmentation) and the first instruction of the service routine is fetched from the  
respective vector location, which is expected to branch to the service routine itself. The  
data page pointers and the context pointer are not affected.  
When the interrupt service routine is left (RETI is executed), the status information is  
popped from the system stack in the reverse order, taking into account the value of bit  
SGTDIS.

Context Switching  
An interrupt service routine usually saves all the registers it uses on the stack, and  
restores them before returning. The more registers a routine uses, the more time is  
wasted with saving and restoring. The C167CR allows to switch the complete bank of  
CPU registers (GPRs) with a single instruction, so the service routine executes within its  
own, separate context.  
The instruction “SCXT CP, #New_Bank” pushes the content of the context pointer (CP)  
on the system stack and loads CP with the immediate value “New_Bank”, which selects  
a new register bank. The service routine may now use its “own registers”. This register  
bank is preserved, when the service routine terminates, i.e. its contents are available on  
the next call.  
Before returning (RETI) the previous CP is simply POPped from the system stack, which  
returns the registers to the original bank.  
Note: The first instruction following the SCXT instruction must not use a GPR.  
Resources that are used by the interrupting program must eventually be saved and  
restored, e.g. the DPPs and the registers of the MUL/DIV unit.

Interrupt Response Times  
The interrupt response time defines the time from an interrupt request flag of an enabled  
interrupt source being set until the first instruction (I1) being fetched from the interrupt

Pipeline Diagram for Interrupt Response Time  
All instructions in the pipeline including instruction N (during which the interrupt request  
flag is set) are completed before entering the service routine. The actual execution time  
for these instructions (e.g. waitstates) therefore influences the interrupt response time.  
In Figure 5-4 the respective interrupt request flag is set in cycle 1 (fetching of instruction  
N). The indicated source wins the prioritization round (during cycle 2). In cycle 3 a TRAP  
instruction is injected into the decode stage of the pipeline, replacing instruction N + 1  
and clearing the source’s interrupt request flag to ‘0’. Cycle 4 completes the injected  
TRAP instruction (save PSW, IP and CSP, if segmented mode) and fetches the first  
instruction (I1) from the respective vector location.  
All instructions that entered the pipeline after setting of the interrupt request flag (N + 1,  
N + 2) will be executed after returning from the interrupt service routine.  
The minimum interrupt response time is 5 states (10 TCL). This requires program  
execution from the internal code memory, no external operand read requests and setting  
the interrupt request flag during the last state of an instruction cycle. When the interrupt  
request flag is set during the first state of an instruction cycle, the minimum interrupt  
response time under these conditions is 6 state times (12 TCL).  
The interrupt response time is increased by all delays of the instructions in the pipeline  
that are executed before entering the service routine (including N).

• When internal hold conditions between instruction pairs N – 2/N – 1 or N – 1/N occur,  
or instruction N explicitly writes to the PSW or the SP, the minimum interrupt response  
time may be extended by 1 state time for each of these conditions.  
• When instruction N reads an operand from the internal code memory, or when N is a  
call, return, trap, or MOV Rn, [Rm+ #data16] instruction, the minimum interrupt  
response time may additionally be extended by 2 state times during internal code  
memory program execution.  
• In case instruction N reads the PSW and instruction N – 1 has an effect on the  
condition flags, the interrupt response time may additionally be extended by 2 state  
times.  
The worst case interrupt response time during internal code memory program execution  
adds to 12 state times (24 TCL).  
Any reference to external locations increases the interrupt response time due to pipeline  
related access priorities. The following conditions have to be considered:  
• Instruction fetch from an external location  
• Operand read from an external location  
• Result write-back to an external location  
Depending on where the instructions, source and destination operands are located,  
there are a number of combinations. Note, however, that only access conflicts contribute  
to the delay.  
A few examples illustrate these delays:  
• The worst case interrupt response time including external accesses will occur, when  
instructions N, N + 1 and N + 2 are executed out of external memory, instructions N – 1  
and N require external operand read accesses, instructions N – 3 through N write  
back external operands, and the interrupt vector also points to an external location. In  
this case the interrupt response time is the time to perform 9 word bus accesses,  
because instruction I1 cannot be fetched via the external bus until all write, fetch and  
read requests of preceding instructions in the pipeline are terminated.  
• When the above example has the interrupt vector pointing into the internal code  
memory, the interrupt response time is 7 word bus accesses plus 2 states, because  
fetching of instruction I1 from internal code memory can start earlier.  
• When instructions N, N + 1 and N + 2 are executed out of external memory and the  
interrupt vector also points to an external location, but all operands for instructions N – 3  
through N are in internal memory, then the interrupt response time is the time to  
perform 3 word bus accesses.  
• When the above example has the interrupt vector pointing into the internal code  
memory, the interrupt response time is 1 word bus access plus 4 states.

After an interrupt service routine has been terminated by executing the RETI instruction,  
and if further interrupts are pending, the next interrupt service routine will not be entered  
until at least two instruction cycles have been executed of the program that was  
interrupted. In most cases two instructions will be executed during this time. Only one  
instruction will typically be executed, if the first instruction following the RETI instruction  
is a branch instruction (without cache hit), or if it reads an operand from internal code  
memory, or if it is executed out of the internal RAM.

In Figure 5-5 above the respective interrupt request flag is set in cycle 1 (fetching of  
instruction N). The indicated source wins the prioritization round (during cycle 2). In  
cycle 3 a PEC transfer “instruction” is injected into the decode stage of the pipeline,  
suspending instruction N + 1 and clearing the source’s interrupt request flag to ‘0’.  
Cycle 4 completes the injected PEC transfer and resumes the execution of instruction  
N + 1.  
All instructions that entered the pipeline after setting of the interrupt request flag (N + 1,  
N + 2) will be executed after the PEC data transfer.  
Note: When instruction N reads any of the PEC control registers PECC7 PECC0,  
while a PEC request wins the current round of prioritization, this round is repeated  
and the PEC data transfer is started one cycle later.  
The minimum PEC response time is 3 states (6 TCL). This requires program execution  
from the internal code memory, no external operand read requests and setting the  
interrupt request flag during the last state of an instruction cycle. When the interrupt  
request flag is set during the first state of an instruction cycle, the minimum PEC  
response time under these conditions is 4 state times (8 TCL).  
The PEC response time is increased by all delays of the instructions in the pipeline that  
are executed before starting the data transfer (including N).

External Interrupts  
Although the C167CR has no dedicated INTR input pins, it provides many possibilities  
to react on external asynchronous events by using a number of IO lines for interrupt  
input. The interrupt function may either be combined with the pin’s main function or may  
be used instead of it, i.e. if the main pin function is not required.  
Interrupt signals may be connected to:  
• CC31IO … CC16IO, the capture input/compare output lines of the CAPCOM2 unit,  
• CC15IO … CC0IO, the capture input/compare output lines of the CAPCOM1 unit,  
• T4IN, T2IN, the timer input pins,  
• CAPIN, the capture input of GPT2  
For each of these pins either a positive, a negative, or both a positive and a negative  
external transition can be selected to cause an interrupt or PEC service request. The  
edge selection is performed in the control register of the peripheral device associated  
with the respective port pin. The peripheral must be programmed to a specific operating  
mode to allow generation of an interrupt by the external signal. The priority of the  
interrupt request is determined by the interrupt control register of the respective  
peripheral interrupt source, and the interrupt vector of this source will be used to service  
the external interrupt request.  
Note: In order to use any of the listed pins as external interrupt input, it must be switched  
to input mode via its direction control bit DPx.y in the respective port direction  
control register DPx.

the request flag. In all three cases, the contents of the allocated CAPCOM timer will be  
latched into capture register CCx, independent whether the timer is running or not. When  
the interrupt enable bit CCxIE is set, a PEC request or an interrupt request for vector  
CCxINT will be generated.  
Pins T2IN or T4IN can be used as external interrupt input pins when the associated  
auxiliary timer T2 or T4 in block GPT1 is configured for capture mode. This mode is  
selected by programming the mode control fields T2M or T4M in control registers  
T2CON or T4CON to 101 . The active edge of the external input signal is determined by  
B
bit fields T2I or T4I. When these fields are programmed to X01 , interrupt request flags  
B
T2IR or T4IR in registers T2IC or T4IC will be set on a positive external transition at pins  
T2IN or T4IN, respectively. When T2I or T4I are programmed to X10 , then a negative  
B
external transition will set the corresponding request flag. When T2I or T4I are  
programmed to X11 , both a positive and a negative transition will set the request flag.  
B
In all three cases, the contents of the core timer T3 will be captured into the auxiliary  
timer registers T2 or T4 based on the transition at pins T2IN or T4IN. When the interrupt  
enable bits T2IE or T4IE are set, a PEC request or an interrupt request for vector T2INT  
or T4INT will be generated.  
Pin CAPIN differs slightly from the timer input pins as it can be used as external interrupt  
input pin without affecting peripheral functions. When the capture mode enable bit T5SC  
in register T5CON is cleared to ‘0’, signal transitions on pin CAPIN will only set the  
interrupt request flag CRIR in register CRIC, and the capture function of register  
CAPREL is not activated.  
So register CAPREL can still be used as reload register for GPT2 timer T5, while pin  
CAPIN serves as external interrupt input. Bit field CI in register T5CON selects the  
effective transition of the external interrupt input signal. When CI is programmed to 01 ,  
B
a positive external transition will set the interrupt request flag. CI = 10 selects a negative  
B
transition to set the interrupt request flag, and with CI = 11 , both a positive and a  
B
negative transition will set the request flag. When the interrupt enable bit CRIE is set, an  
interrupt request for vector CRINT or a PEC request will be generated.  
Note: The non-maskable interrupt input pin NMI and the reset input RSTIN provide  
another possibility for the CPU to react on an external input signal. NMIand RSTIN  
are dedicated input pins, which cause hardware traps.

The input pins that may be used for external interrupts are sampled every 16 TCL, i.e.  
external events are scanned and detected in timeframes of 16 TCL. The C167CR  
provides 8 interrupt inputs that are sampled every 2 TCL, so external events are  
captured faster than with standard interrupt inputs.  
The upper 8 pins of Port 2 (P2.15-P2.8) can individually be programmed to this fast  
interrupt mode, where also the trigger transition (rising, falling or both) can be selected.

Trap Functions  
Traps interrupt the current execution similar to standard interrupts. However, trap  
functions offer the possibility to bypass the interrupt system’s prioritization process in  
cases where immediate system reaction is required. Trap functions are not maskable  
and always have priority over interrupt requests on any priority level.  
The C167CR provides two different kinds of trapping mechanisms. Hardware traps are  
triggered by events that occur during program execution (e.g. illegal access or undefined  
opcode), software traps are initiated via an instruction within the current execution flow.  
Software Traps  
The TRAP instruction is used to cause a software call to an interrupt service routine. The  
trap number that is specified in the operand field of the trap instruction determines which  
vector location in the address range from 00’0000 through 00’01FC will be branched to.  
H
H
Executing a TRAP instruction causes a similar effect as if an interrupt at the same vector  
had occurred. PSW, CSP (in segmentation mode), and IP are pushed on the internal  
system stack and a jump is taken to the specified vector location. When segmentation is  
enabled and a trap is executed, the CSP for the trap service routine is set to code  
segment 0. No Interrupt Request flags are affected by the TRAP instruction. The  
interrupt service routine called by a TRAP instruction must be terminated with a RETI  
(return from interrupt) instruction to ensure correct operation.  
Note: The CPU level in register PSW is not modified by the TRAP instruction, so the  
service routine is executed on the same priority level from which it was invoked.  
Therefore, the service routine entered by the TRAP instruction can be interrupted  
by other traps or higher priority interrupts, other than when triggered by a  
hardware trap.  
Hardware Traps  
Hardware traps are issued by faults or specific system states that occur during runtime  
of a program (not identified at assembly time). A hardware trap may also be triggered  
intentionally, e.g. to emulate additional instructions by generating an Illegal Opcode trap.  
The C167CR distinguishes eight different hardware trap functions. When a hardware  
trap condition has been detected, the CPU branches to the trap vector location for the  
respective trap condition. Depending on the trap condition, the instruction which caused  
the trap is either completed or cancelled (i.e. it has no effect on the system state) before  
the trap handling routine is entered.  
Hardware traps are non-maskable and always have priority over every other CPU activity.  
If several hardware trap conditions are detected within the same instruction cycle, the  
highest priority trap is serviced (see Table 5-2).

PSW, CSP (in segmentation mode), and IP are pushed on the internal system stack and  
the CPU level in register PSW is set to the highest possible priority level (i.e. level 15),  
disabling all interrupts. The CSP is set to code segment zero, if segmentation is enabled.  
A trap service routine must be terminated with the RETI instruction.  
The eight hardware trap functions of the C167CR are divided into two classes:  
Class A traps are  
• external Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI)  
• Stack Overflow  
• Stack Underflow Trap  
These traps share the same trap priority, but have an individual vector address.  
Class B traps are  
• Undefined Opcode  
• Protection Fault  
• Illegal Word Operand Access  
• Illegal Instruction Access  
• Illegal External Bus Access Trap  
These traps share the same trap priority, and the same vector address.  
The bit-addressable Trap Flag Register (TFR) allows a trap service routine to identify the  
kind of trap which caused the exception. Each trap function is indicated by a separate  
request flag. When a hardware trap occurs, the corresponding request flag in register  
TFR is set to ‘1’.  
The reset functions (hardware, software, watchdog) may be regarded as a type of trap.  
Reset functions have the highest system priority (trap priority III).  
Class A traps have the second highest priority (trap priority II), on the 3rd rank are class  
B traps, so a class A trap can interrupt a class B trap. If more than one class A trap occur  
at a time, they are prioritized internally, with the NMI trap on the highest and the stack  
underflow trap on the lowest priority.  
All class B traps have the same trap priority (trap priority I). When several class B traps  
get active at a time, the corresponding flags in the TFR register are set and the trap  
service routine is entered. Since all class B traps have the same vector, the priority of  
service of simultaneously occurring class B traps is determined by software in the trap  
service routine.  
A class A trap occurring during the execution of a class B trap service routine will be  
serviced immediately. During the execution of a class A trap service routine, however,  
any class B trap occurring will not be serviced until the class A trap service routine is  
exited with a RETI instruction. In this case, the occurrence of the class B trap condition  
is stored in the TFR register, but the IP value of the instruction which caused this trap is  
lost.

The current stack pointer value exceeds the content of register STKUN.  
Stack Overflow Flag  
The current stack pointer value falls below the content of reg. STKOV.  
Non Maskable Interrupt Flag  
A negative transition (falling edge) has been detected on pin NMI.  
Note: The trap service routine must clear the respective trap flag, otherwise a new trap  
will be requested after exiting the service routine. Setting a trap request flag by  
software causes the same effects as if it had been set by hardware.  
In the case where e.g. an Undefined Opcode trap (class B) occurs simultaneously with  
an NMI trap (class A), both the NMI and the UNDOPC flag is set, the IP of the instruction  
with the undefined opcode is pushed onto the system stack, but the NMI trap is executed.  
After return from the NMI service routine, the IP is popped from the stack and  
immediately pushed again because of the pending UNDOPC trap.

Interrupt and Trap Functions  
External NMI Trap  
Whenever a high to low transition on the dedicated external NMI pin (Non-Maskable  
Interrupt) is detected, the NMI flag in register TFR is set and the CPU will enter the NMI  
trap routine. The IP value pushed on the system stack is the address of the instruction  
following the one after which normal processing was interrupted by the NMI trap.  
Note: The NMI pin is sampled with every CPU clock cycle to detect transitions.  
Stack Overflow Trap  
Whenever the stack pointer is decremented to a value which is less than the value in the  
stack overflow register STKOV, the STKOF flag in register TFR is set and the CPU will  
enter the stack overflow trap routine. Which IP value will be pushed onto the system  
stack depends on which operation caused the decrement of the SP. When an implicit  
decrement of the SP is made through a PUSH or CALL instruction, or upon interrupt or  
trap entry, the IP value pushed is the address of the following instruction. When the SP  
is decremented by a subtract instruction, the IP value pushed represents the address of  
the instruction after the instruction following the subtract instruction.  
For recovery from stack overflow it must be ensured that there is enough excess space  
on the stack for saving the current system state (PSW, IP, in segmented mode also CSP)  
twice. Otherwise, a system reset should be generated.  
Stack Underflow Trap  
Whenever the stack pointer is incremented to a value which is greater than the value in  
the stack underflow register STKUN, the STKUF flag is set in register TFR and the CPU  
will enter the stack underflow trap routine. Again, which IP value will be pushed onto the  
system stack depends on which operation caused the increment of the SP. When an  
implicit increment of the SP is made through a POP or return instruction, the IP value  
pushed is the address of the following instruction. When the SP is incremented by an  
add instruction, the pushed IP value represents the address of the instruction after the  
instruction following the add instruction.  
Undefined Opcode Trap  
When the instruction currently decoded by the CPU does not contain a valid C167CR  
opcode, the UNDOPC flag is set in register TFR and the CPU enters the undefined  
opcode trap routine. The IP value pushed onto the system stack is the address of the  
instruction that caused the trap.  
This can be used to emulate unimplemented instructions. The trap service routine can  
examine the faulting instruction to decode operands for unimplemented opcodes based  
on the stacked IP. In order to resume processing, the stacked IP value must be  
incremented by the size of the undefined instruction, which is determined by the user,  
before a RETI instruction is executed.

Protection Fault Trap  
Whenever one of the special protected instructions is executed where the opcode of that  
instruction is not repeated twice in the second word of the instruction and the byte  
following the opcode is not the complement of the opcode, the PRTFLT flag in register  
TFR is set and the CPU enters the protection fault trap routine. The protected  
instructions include DISWDT, EINIT, IDLE, PWRDN, SRST, and SRVWDT. The IP value  
pushed onto the system stack for the protection fault trap is the address of the instruction  
that caused the trap.  
Illegal Word Operand Access Trap  
Whenever a word operand read or write access is attempted to an odd byte address, the  
ILLOPA flag in register TFR is set and the CPU enters the illegal word operand access  
trap routine. The IP value pushed onto the system stack is the address of the instruction  
following the one which caused the trap.  
Illegal Instruction Access Trap  
Whenever a branch is made to an odd byte address, the ILLINA flag in register TFR is  
set and the CPU enters the illegal instruction access trap routine. The IP value pushed  
onto the system stack is the illegal odd target address of the branch instruction.  
Illegal External Bus Access Trap  
Whenever the CPU requests an external instruction fetch, data read or data write, and  
no external bus configuration has been specified, the ILLBUS flag in register TFR is set  
and the CPU enters the illegal bus access trap routine. The IP value pushed onto the  
system stack is the address of the instruction following the one which caused the trap.

All activities of the C167CR’s controller hardware and its on-chip peripherals are  
controlled via the system clock signal fCPU  
.
This reference clock is generated in three stages (see also Figure 6-1):  
Oscillator  
The on-chip Pierce oscillator can either run with an external crystal and appropriate  
oscillator circuitry or it can be driven by an external oscillator.  
Frequency Control  
The input clock signal feeds the controller hardware:  
• directly, providing phase coupled operation on not too high input frequency  
• divided by 2 in order to get 50% duty cycle clock signal  
• via an on-chip phase locked loop (PLL) providing max. performance on low input  
frequency  
The resulting internal clock signal is referred to as “CPU clock” fCPU  
.

The CPU clock is distributed via separate clock drivers which feed the CPU itself and two

Oscillator  
The main oscillator of the C167CR is a power optimized Pierce oscillator providing an  
inverter and a feedback element. Pins XTAL1 and XTAL2 connect the inverter to the  
external crystal. The standard external oscillator circuitry (see Figure 6-2) comprises the  
crystal, two low end capacitors and series resistor (Rx2) to limit the current through the  
crystal. The additional LC combination is only required for 3rd overtone crystals to  
suppress oscillation in the fundamental mode. A test resistor (RQ) may be temporarily  
inserted to measure the oscillation allowance of the oscillator circuitry.

The on-chip oscillator is optimized for an input frequency range of 4 to 40 MHz.  
An external clock signal (e.g. from an external oscillator or from a master device) may  
be fed to the input XTAL1. The Pierce oscillator then is not required to support the  
oscillation itself but is rather driven by the input signal. In this case the input frequency  
range may be 0 to 50 MHz (please note that the maximum applicable input frequency is  
limited by the device’s maximum CPU frequency).

Frequency Control  
The CPU clock is generated from the oscillator clock:  
The basic clock is the standard operating clock for the C167CR and is required to  
deliver the intended maximum performance. The clock configuration in register RP0H  
(bitfield CLKCFG = RP0H.7-5) determines one of three possible basic clock generation  
modes:  
• Direct Drive: the oscillator clock is directly fed to the controller hardware.  
• Prescaler: the oscillator clock is divided by 2 to achieve a 50% duty cycle.  
• PLL: the oscillator clock is multiplied by a configurable factor of F = 1.5 … 5.

The internal operation of the C167CR is controlled by the internal CPU clock fCPU. Both

Direct Drive  
Generation Mechanisms for the CPU Clock  
When direct drive is configured (CLKCFG = 011 ) the C167CR’s clock system is directly  
B
fed from the external clock input, i.e. fCPU = fOSC. This allows operation of the C167CR  
with a reasonably small fundamental mode crystal. The specified minimum values for the  
CPU clock phases (TCLs) must be respected. Therefore the maximum input clock  
frequency depends on the clock signal’s duty cycle.  
Prescaler Operation  
When prescaler operation is configured (CLKCFG = 001 ) the C167CR’s input clock is  
B
divided by 2 to generate then CPU clock signal, i.e. fCPU = fOSC / 2. This requires the  
oscillator (or input clock) to run on 2 times the intended operating frequency but  
guarantees a 50% duty cycle for the internal clock system independent of the input clock  
signal’s waveform.

C167CR

Clock Generation  
PLL Operation  
When PLL operation is configured (via CLKCFG) the C167CR’s input clock is fed to the  
on-chip phase locked loop circuit which multiplies its frequency by a factor ofF = 1.5 … 5  
(selectable via CLKCFG, see Table 6-1) and generates a CPU clock signal with 50%  
duty cycle, i.e. fCPU = fOSC × F.  
The on-chip PLL circuit allows operation of the C167CR on a low frequency external  
clock while still providing maximum performance. The PLL also provides fail safe  
mechanisms which allow the detection of frequency deviations and the execution of  
emergency actions in case of an external clock failure.  
When the PLL detects a missing input clock signal it generates an interrupt request. This  
warning interrupt indicates that the PLL frequency is no more locked, i.e. no more stable.  
This occurs when the input clock is unstable and especially when the input clock fails  
completely, e.g. due to a broken crystal. In this case the synchronization mechanism will  
reduce the PLL output frequency down to the PLL’s base frequency (2 … 5 MHz). The  
base frequency is still generated and allows the CPU to execute emergency actions in  
case of a loss of the external clock.  
On power-up the PLL provides a stable clock signal within ca. 1 ms after VDD has  
reached the specified valid range, even if there is no external clock signal (in this case  
the PLL will run on its base frequency of 2 … 5 MHz). The PLL starts synchronizing with  
the external clock signal as soon as it is available. Within ca. 1 ms after stable  
oscillations of the external clock within the specified frequency range the PLL will be  
synchronous with this clock at a frequency of F × fOSC, i.e. the PLL locks to the external  
clock.  
When PLL operation is selected the CPU clock is a selectable multiple of the oscillator  
frequency, i.e. the input frequency.  
Table 6-1 lists the possible selections.

The PLL constantly synchronizes to the external clock signal. Due to the fact that the  
external frequency is 1/Fth of the PLL output frequency the output frequency may be  
slightly higher or lower than the desired frequency. This jitter is irrelevant for longer time  
periods. For short periods (1 … 4 CPU clock cycles) it remains below 4%.

Oscillator Watchdog  
The C167CR provides an Oscillator Watchdog (OWD) which monitors the clock signal  
fed to input XTAL1 of the on-chip oscillator (either with a crystal or via external clock  
drive) in prescaler or direct drive mode (not if the PLL provides the basic clock). For this  
operation the PLL provides a clock signal (base frequency) which is used to supervise  
transitions on the oscillator clock. This PLL clock is independent from the XTAL1 clock.  
When the expected oscillator clock transitions are missing the OWD activates the PLL  
Unlock/OWD interrupt node and supplies the CPU with the PLL clock signal instead of  
the selected oscillator clock. Under these circumstances the PLL will oscillate with its  
base frequency.  
In direct drive mode the PLL base frequency is used directly (fCPU = 2 … 5 MHz).  
In prescaler mode the PLL base frequency is divided by 2 (fCPU = 1 … 2.5 MHz).  
If the oscillator clock fails while the PLL provides the basic clock the system will be  
supplied with the PLL base frequency anyway.  
With this PLL clock signal the CPU can either execute a controlled shutdown sequence  
bringing the system into a defined and safe idle state, or it can provide an emergency  
operation of the system with reduced performance based on this (normally slower)  
emergency clock.  
Note: The CPU clock source is only switched back to the oscillator clock after a  
hardware reset.  
The oscillator watchdog can be disabled by setting bit OWDDIS in register SYSCON.  
In this case the PLL remains idle and provides no clock signal, while the CPU clock  
signal is derived directly from the oscillator clock or via prescaler. Also no interrupt  
request will be generated in case of a missing oscillator clock.  
Note: The oscillator watchdog may also be disabled via hardware by (externally) pulling  
the OWE line low. However, this is mainly provided for testing purposes and not  
recommended for application systems.

Parallel Ports  
In order to accept or generate single external control signals or parallel data, the  
C167CR provides up to 111 parallel IO lines organized into one 16-bit IO port (Port 2),  
eight 8-bit IO ports (PORT0 made of P0H and P0L, PORT1 made of P1H and P1L,  
Port 4, Port 6, Port 7, Port 8), one 15-bit IO port (Port 3), and one 16-bit input port  
(Port 5).  
These port lines may be used for general purpose Input/Output controlled via software  
or may be used implicitly by the C167CR’s integrated peripherals or the External Bus  
Controller.  
All port lines are bit addressable, and all input/output lines are individually (bit-wise)  
programmable as inputs or outputs via direction registers (except Port 5, of course). The  
IO ports are true bidirectional ports which are switched to high impedance state when  
configured as inputs. The output drivers of five IO ports (2, 3, 6, 7, 8) can be configured  
(pin by pin) for push/pull operation or open-drain operation via control registers.  
The logic level of a pin is clocked into the input latch once per state time, regardless  
whether the port is configured for input or output.

A write operation to a port pin configured as an input causes the value to be written into  
the port output latch, while a read operation returns the latched state of the pin itself. A  
read-modify-write operation reads the value of the pin, modifies it, and writes it back to  
the output latch.  
Writing to a pin configured as an output (DPx.y = ‘1’) causes the output latch and the pin  
to have the written value, since the output buffer is enabled. Reading this pin returns the  
value of the output latch. A read-modify-write operation reads the value of the output  
latch, modifies it, and writes it back to the output latch, thus also modifying the level at  
the pin.

Input Threshold Control  
The standard inputs of the C167CR determine the status of input signals according to  
TTL levels. In order to accept and recognize noisy signals, CMOS-like input thresholds  
can be selected instead of the standard TTL thresholds for all pins of specific ports.  
These special thresholds are defined above the TTL thresholds and feature a defined  
hysteresis to prevent the inputs from toggling while the respective input signal level is  
near the thresholds.  
The Port Input Control register PICON allows to select these thresholds for each byte of  
the indicated ports, i.e. 8-bit ports are controlled by one bit each while 16-bit ports are  
controlled by two bits each.

Output Driver Control  
The output driver of a port pin is activated by switching the respective pin to output, i.e.  
DPx.y = ’1’. The value that is driven to the pin is determined by the port output latch or  
by the associated alternate function (e.g. address, peripheral IO, etc.). The user software  
can control the characteristics of the output driver via the following mechanisms:  
Open Drain Mode: The upper (push) transistor is always disabled. Only ‘0’ is driven  
actively, an external pullup is required.  
Edge Characteristic: The rise/fall time of an output signal can be selected.  
Open Drain Mode  
In the C167CR certain ports provide Open Drain Control, which allows to switch the  
output driver of a port pin from a push/pull configuration to an open drain configuration.  
In push/pull mode a port output driver has an upper and a lower transistor, thus it can  
actively drive the line either to a high or a low level. In open drain mode the upper  
transistor is always switched off, and the output driver can only actively drive the line to  
a low level. When writing a ‘1’ to the port latch, the lower transistor is switched off and  
the output enters a high-impedance state. The high level must then be provided by an  
external pullup device. With this feature, it is possible to connect several port pins  
together to a Wired-AND configuration, saving external glue logic and/or additional  
software overhead for enabling/disabling output signals.  
This feature is controlled through the respective Open Drain Control Registers ODPx

the individual bit-wise selection of the open drain mode for each port line.  
If the respective control bit ODPx.y is ‘0’ (default after reset), the output driver is in the  
push/pull mode. If ODPx.y is ‘1’, the open drain configuration is selected. Note that all  
ODPx registers are located in the ESFR space.

If an alternate output function of a pin is to be used, the direction of this pin must be  
programmed for output (DPx.y = ‘1’), except for some signals that are used directly after  
reset and are configured automatically. Otherwise the pin remains in the high-impedance  
state and is not effected by the alternate output function. The respective port latch should  
hold a ‘1’, because its output is combined with the alternate output data.  
X-Peripherals (peripherals connected to the on-chip XBUS) control their associated IO  
pins directly via separate control lines.

Parallel Ports  
If an alternate input function of a pin is used, the direction of the pin must be  
programmed for input (DPx.y = ‘0’) if an external device is driving the pin. The input  
direction is the default after reset. If no external device is connected to the pin, however,  
one can also set the direction for this pin to output. In this case, the pin reflects the state  
of the port output latch. Thus, the alternate input function reads the value stored in the  
port output latch. This can be used for testing purposes to allow a software trigger of an  
alternate input function by writing to the port output latch.  
On most of the port lines, the user software is responsible for setting the proper direction  
when using an alternate input or output function of a pin. This is done by setting or  
clearing the direction control bit DPx.y of the pin before enabling the alternate function.  
There are port lines, however, where the direction of the port line is switched  
automatically. For instance, in the multiplexed external bus modes of PORT0, the  
direction must be switched several times for an instruction fetch in order to output the  
addresses and to input the data. Obviously, this cannot be done through instructions. In  
these cases, the direction of the port line is switched automatically by hardware if the  
alternate function of such a pin is enabled.  
To determine the appropriate level of the port output latches check how the alternate  
data output is combined with the respective port latch output.  
There is one basic structure for all port lines with only an alternate input function. Port  
lines with only an alternate output function, however, have different structures due to the  
way the direction of the pin is switched and depending on whether the pin is accessible  
by the user software or not in the alternate function mode.  
All port lines that are not used for these alternate functions may be used as general  
purpose IO lines. When using port pins for general purpose output, the initial output  
value should be written to the port latch prior to enabling the output drivers, in order to  
avoid undesired transitions on the output pins. This applies to single pins as well as to  
pin groups (see examples below).

Note: When using several BSET pairs to control more pins of one port, these pairs must  
be separated by instructions, which do not reference the respective port (see  
Chapter 4.2).  
Each of these ports and the alternate input and output functions are described in detail  
in the following subsections.

Alternate Functions of PORT0  
When an external bus is enabled, PORT0 is used as data bus or address/data bus.  
Note that an external 8-bit demultiplexed bus only uses P0L, while P0H is free for IO  
(provided that no other bus mode is enabled).  
PORT0 is also used to select the system startup configuration. During reset, PORT0 is  
configured to input, and each line is held high through an internal pullup device. Each  
line can now be individually pulled to a low level (see DC-level specifications in the  
respective Data Sheets) through an external pulldown device. A default configuration is  
selected when the respective PORT0 lines are at a high level. Through pulling individual  
lines to a low level, this default can be changed according to the needs of the  
applications.  
The internal pullup devices are designed such that an external pulldown resistors (see  
Data Sheet specification) can be used to apply a correct low level. These external  
pulldown resistors can remain connected to the PORT0 pins also during normal  
operation, however, care has to be taken such that they do not disturb the normal  
function of PORT0 (this might be the case, for example, if the external resistor is too  
strong).  
With the end of reset, the selected bus configuration will be written to the BUSCON0  
register. The configuration of the high byte of PORT0 will be copied into the special  
register RP0H. This read-only register holds the selection for the number of chip selects

and segment addresses. Software can read this register in order to react according to  
the selected configuration, if required.  
When the reset is terminated, the internal pullup devices are switched off, and PORT0  
will be switched to the appropriate operating mode.  
During external accesses in multiplexed bus modes PORT0 first outputs the 16-bit  
intra-segment address as an alternate output function. PORT0 is then switched to  
high-impedance input mode to read the incoming instruction or data. In 8-bit data bus  
mode, two memory cycles are required for word accesses, the first for the low byte and  
the second for the high byte of the word. During write cycles PORT0 outputs the data  
byte or word after outputting the address.  
During external accesses in demultiplexed bus modes PORT0 reads the incoming  
instruction or data word or outputs the data byte or word.

PORT0 IO and Alternate Functions  
When an external bus mode is enabled, the direction of the port pin and the loading of  
data into the port output latch are controlled by the bus controller hardware. The input of  
the port output latch is disconnected from the internal bus and is switched to the line  
labeled “Alternate Data Output” via a multiplexer. The alternate data can be the 16-bit  
intrasegment address or the 8/16-bit data information. The incoming data on PORT0 is  
read on the line “Alternate Data Input”. While an external bus mode is enabled, the user  
software should not write to the port output latch, otherwise unpredictable results may  
occur. When the external bus modes are disabled, the contents of the direction register  
last written by the user becomes active.

Alternate Functions of PORT1  
When a demultiplexed external bus is enabled, PORT1 is used as address bus.  
Note that demultiplexed bus modes use PORT1 as a 16-bit port. Otherwise all 16 port  
lines can be used for general purpose IO.  
The upper four pins of PORT1 (P1H.7 … P1H.4) also serve as capture inputs  
(CC27IO … CC24IO) for the CAPCOM2 unit.  
The usage of the port lines by the CAPCOM unit, its accessibility via software, and the  
precautions are the same as described for the Port 2 lines.  
As all other capture inputs, the capture input function of pins P1H.7 … P1H.4 can also  
be used as external interrupt inputs (sample rate 16 TCL).  
As a side effect, the capture input capability of these lines can also be used in the  
address bus mode. Hereby changes of the upper address lines could be detected and  
trigger an interrupt request in order to perform some special service routines. External  
capture signals can only be applied if no address output is selected for PORT1.

PORT1 IO and Alternate Functions  
During external accesses in demultiplexed bus modes PORT1 outputs the 16-bit  
intra-segment address as an alternate output function.  
During external accesses in multiplexed bus modes, when no BUSCON register selects  
a demultiplexed bus mode, PORT1 is not used and is available for general purpose IO.  
When an external bus mode is enabled, the direction of the port pin and the loading of  
data into the port output latch are controlled by the bus controller hardware. The input of  
the port output latch is disconnected from the internal bus and is switched to the line  
labeled “Alternate Data Output” via a multiplexer. The alternate data is the 16-bit  
intrasegment address. While an external bus mode is enabled, the user software should  
not write to the port output latch, otherwise unpredictable results may occur. When the  
external bus modes are disabled, the contents of the direction register last written by the  
user becomes active.  
Figure 7-9 show the structure of PORT1 pins. The upper 4 pins of PORT1 combine  
internal bus data and alternate data output before the port latch input.

Alternate Functions of Port 2  
All Port 2 lines (P2.15 … P2.0) serve as capture inputs or compare outputs  
(CC15IO … CC0IO) for the CAPCOM1 unit. The upper eight Port 2 lines (P2.15 … P2.8)  
also serve as external interrupt inputs EX7IN … EX0IN (16 TCL sample rate).  
When a Port 2 line is used as a capture input, the state of the input latch, which  
represents the state of the port pin, is directed to the CAPCOM unit via the line “Alternate  
Pin Data Input”. If an external capture trigger signal is used, the direction of the  
respective pin must be set to input. If the direction is set to output, the state of the port  
output latch will be read since the pin represents the state of the output latch. This can  
be used to trigger a capture event through software by setting or clearing the port latch.  
Note that in the output configuration, no external device may drive the pin, otherwise  
conflicts would occur.  
When a Port 2 line is used as a compare output (compare modes 1 and 3), the compare  
event (or the timer overflow in compare mode 3) directly effects the port output latch. In  
compare mode 1, when a valid compare match occurs, the state of the port output latch  
is read by the CAPCOM control hardware via the line “Alternate Latch Data Input”,  
inverted, and written back to the latch via the line “Alternate Data Output”. The port  
output latch is clocked by the signal “Compare Trigger” which is generated by the  
CAPCOM unit. In compare mode 3, when a match occurs, the value ‘1’ is written to the  
port output latch via the line “Alternate Data Output”. When an overflow of the  
corresponding timer occurs, a ‘0’ is written to the port output latch. In both cases, the  
output latch is clocked by the signal “Compare Trigger”. The direction of the pin should  
be set to output by the user, otherwise the pin will be in the high-impedance state and  
will not reflect the state of the output latch.  
As can be seen from the port structure below, the user software always has free access  
to the port pin even when it is used as a compare output. This is useful for setting up the  
initial level of the pin when using compare mode 1 or the double-register mode. In these  
modes, unlike in compare mode 3, the pin is not set to a specific value when a compare  
match occurs, but is toggled instead.  
When the user wants to write to the port pin at the same time a compare trigger tries to  
clock the output latch, the write operation of the user software has priority. Each time a  
CPU write access to the port output latch occurs, the input multiplexer of the port output  
latch is switched to the line connected to the internal bus. The port output latch will  
receive the value from the internal bus and the hardware triggered change will be lost.  
As all other capture inputs, the capture input function of pins P2.15 … P2.0 can also be  
used as external interrupt inputs (sample rate 16 TCL) or as Fast External Interrupt  
inputs (sample rate 2 TCL).  
P2.15 in addition serves as input for CAPCOM2 timer T7 (T7IN).

Figure 7-13 Port 3 IO and Alternate Functions  
The port structure of the Port 3 pins depends on their alternate function (see  
Figure 7-14).  
When the on-chip peripheral associated with a Port 3 pin is configured to use the  
alternate input function, it reads the input latch, which represents the state of the pin, via  
the line labeled “Alternate Data Input”. Port 3 pins with alternate input functions are:  
T0IN, T2IN, T3IN, T4IN, T3EUD, and CAPIN.  
When the on-chip peripheral associated with a Port 3 pin is configured to use the  
alternate output function, its “Alternate Data Output” line is ANDed with the port output  
latch line. When using these alternate functions, the user must set the direction of the  
port line to output (DP3.y = 1) and must set the port output latch (P3.y = 1). Otherwise  
the pin is in its high-impedance state (when configured as input) or the pin is stuck at ‘0’  
(when the port output latch is cleared). When the alternate output functions are not used,  
the “Alternate Data Output” line is in its inactive state, which is a high level (‘1’). Port 3  
pins with alternate output functions are:  
T6OUT, T3OUT, TxD0, and CLKOUT.  
When the on-chip peripheral associated with a Port 3 pin is configured to use both the  
alternate input and output function, the descriptions above apply to the respective  
current operating mode. The direction must be set accordingly. Port 3 pins with alternate  
input/output functions are:  
MTSR, MRST, RxD0, and SCLK.  
Note: Enabling the CLKOUT function automatically enables the P3.15 output driver.  
Setting bit DP3.15 = ‘1’ is not required.  
The CLKOUT function is automatically enabled in emulation mode.

Figure 7-14 Block Diagram of a Port 3 Pin with Alternate Input or Alternate  
Output Function  
Pin P3.12 (BHE/WRH) is one more pin with an alternate output function. However, its  
structure is slightly different (see Figure 7-15), because after reset the BHE or WRH  
function must be used depending on the system startup configuration. In these cases  
there is no possibility to program any port latches before. Thus the appropriate alternate  
function is selected automatically. If BHE/WRH is not used in the system, this pin can be  
used for general purpose IO by disabling the alternate function (BYTDIS = ‘1’/  
WRCFG = ‘0’).

Alternate Functions of Port 4  
During external bus cycles that use segmentation (i.e. an address space above  
64 KByte) a number of Port 4 pins may output the segment address lines. The number  
of pins that is used for segment address output determines the external address space  
which is directly accessible. The other pins of Port 4 (if any) may be used for general  
purpose IO or for the CAN interface.  
If segment address lines are selected, the alternate function of Port 4 may be necessary  
to access e.g. external memory directly after reset. For this reason Port 4 will be  
switched to this alternate function automatically.  
The number of segment address lines is selected via PORT0 during reset. The selected  
value can be read from bitfield SALSEL in register RP0H (read only) e.g. in order to  
check the configuration during run time.  
Devices with CAN interface use 2 pins of Port 4 to interface the CAN module to an  
external CAN transceiver. In this case the number of possible segment address lines is  
reduced.  
Table 7-4 summarizes the alternate functions of Port 4 depending on the number of  
selected segment address lines (coded via bitfield SALSEL).

Alternate Functions of Port 5  
Each line of Port 5 is also connected to the input multiplexer of the Analog/Digital  
Converter. All port lines can accept analog signals (ANx) that can be converted by the  
ADC. For pins that shall be used as analog inputs it is recommended to disable the digital  
input stage via register P5DIDIS (see description below). This avoids undesired cross  
currents and switching noise while the (analog) input signal level is between VIL and VIH.  
Some pins of Port 5 also serve as external GPT timer control lines.  
Table 7-5 summarizes the alternate functions of Port 5.

Port 5 Digital Input Control  
Port 5 pins may be used for both digital an analog input. By setting the respective bit in  
register P5DIDIS the digital input stage of the respective Port 5 pin can be disconnected  
from the pin. This is recommended when the pin is to be used as analog input, as it  
reduces the current through the digital input stage and prevents it from toggling while the  
(analog) input level is between the digital low and high thresholds. So the consumed  
power and the generated noise can be reduced.  
After reset all digital inputs are enabled.

Figure 7-20 Port 6 IO and Alternate Functions  
The chip select lines of Port 6 additionally have an internal weak pullup device. This  
device is switched on under the following conditions:  
• always during reset for all potential CS output pins  
• if the Port 6 line is used as a chip select output,  
and the C167CR is in Hold mode (invoked through HOLD),  
and the respective pin driver is in push/pull mode (ODP6.x = ‘0’).  
This feature is implemented to drive the chip select lines high during reset in order to  
avoid multiple chip selection, and to allow another master to access the external memory  
via the same chip select lines (Wired-AND), while the C167CR is in Hold mode.  
With ODP6.x = ‘1’ (open drain output selected), the internal pullup device will not be  
active during Hold mode; external pullup devices must be used in this case.  
When entering Hold mode the CS lines are actively driven high for one clock phase, then  
the output level is controlled by the pullup devices (if activated).  
After reset the CS function must be used, if selected so. In this case there is no possibility  
to program any port latches before. Thus the alternate function (CS) is selected  
automatically in this case.  
Note: The open drain output option can only be selected via software earliest during the  
initialization routine; the configured chip select lines (via CSSEL) will be in push/  
pull output driver mode directly after reset.

Alternate Functions of Port 7  
The upper four lines of Port 7 (P7.7-4) serve as capture inputs or compare outputs  
(CC31IO … CC28IO) for the CAPCOM2 unit.  
The usage of the port lines by the CAPCOM unit, its accessibility via software, and the  
precautions are the same as described for the Port 2 lines.  
As all other capture inputs, the capture input function of pins P7.7-4 can also be used as  
external interrupt inputs (sample rate 16 TCL).  
The lower 4 lines of Port 7 (P7.3-0) serve as outputs from the PWM module (POUT3 …  
POUT0). At these pins the value of the respective port output latch is XORed with the  
value of the PWM output rather than ANDed, as the other pins do. This allows to use the  
alternate output value either as it is (port latch holds a ‘0’) or invert its level at the pin (port  
latch holds a ‘1’).  
Note that the PWM outputs must be enabled via the respective PENx bits in PWMCON1.

Most of the input/output or control signals of the functional the C167CR are realized as  
alternate functions of pins of the parallel ports. There is, however, a number of signals  
that use separate pins, including the oscillator, special control signals and, of course, the  
power supply.  
Table 8-1 summarizes the 33 dedicated pins of the C167CR.

The Address Latch Enable signal ALE controls external address latches that provide  
a stable address in multiplexed bus modes.  
ALE is activated for every external bus cycle independent of the selected bus mode,  
i.e. it is also activated for bus cycles with a demultiplexed address bus. When an external  
bus is enabled (one or more of the BUSACT bits set) also X-Peripheral accesses will  
generate an active ALE signal.  
ALE is not activated for internal accesses, i.e. accesses to ROM/OTP/Flash (if provided),  
the internal RAM and the special function registers. In single chip mode, i.e. when no  
external bus is enabled (no BUSACT bit set), ALE will also remain inactive for  
X-Peripheral accesses.  
During reset an internal pulldown ensures an inactive (low) level on the ALE output.

The External Read Strobe RD controls the output drivers of external memory or  
peripherals when the C167CR reads data from these external devices. During accesses  
to on-chip X-Peripherals RD remains inactive (high).  
During reset an internal pullup ensures an inactive (high) level on the RD output.  
The External Write Strobe WR/WRL controls the data transfer from the C167CR to an  
external memory or peripheral device. This pin may either provide an general WR signal  
activated for both byte and word write accesses, or specifically control the low byte of an  
external 16-bit device (WRL) together with the signal WRH (alternate function of P3.12/  
BHE). During accesses to on-chip X-Peripherals WR/WRL remains inactive (high).  
During reset an internal pullup ensures an inactive (high) level on the WR/WRL output.  
The Ready Input READY receives a control signal from an external memory or  
peripheral device that is used to terminate an external bus cycle, provided that this  
function is enabled for the current bus cycle. READY may be used as synchronous  
READY or may be evaluated asynchronously. When waitstates are defined for a READY  
controlled address window the READY input is not evaluated during these waitstates.  
An internal pullup ensures an inactive (high) level on the READY input.  
The External Access Enable Pin EA determines if the C167CR after reset starts  
fetching code from the internal ROM area (EA = ‘1’) or via the external bus interface  
(EA = ‘0’). Be sure to hold this input low for ROMless devices. At the end of the internal  
reset sequence the EA signal is latched together with the PORT0 configuration.  
The Non-Maskable Interrupt Input NMI allows to trigger a high priority trap via an  
external signal (e.g. a power-fail signal). It also serves to validate the PWRDN instruction  
that switches the C167CR into Power-Down mode. The NMI pin is sampled with every  
CPU clock cycle to detect transitions.  
The Oscillator Input XTAL1 and Output XTAL2 connect the internal Main Oscillator  
to the external crystal. The oscillator provides an inverter and a feedback element. The  
standard external oscillator circuitry (see Chapter 6) comprises the crystal, two low end  
capacitors and series resistor to limit the current through the crystal. The main oscillator  
is intended for the generation of the basic operating clock signal of the C167CR.  
An external clock signal may be fed to the input XTAL1, leaving XTAL2 open or  
terminating it for higher input frequencies.

The Reset Input RSTIN allows to put the C167CR into the well defined reset condition  
either at power-up or external events like a hardware failure or manual reset. The input  
voltage threshold of the RSTIN pin is raised compared to the standard pins in order to  
minimize the noise sensitivity of the reset input.  
In bidirectional reset mode the C167CR’s line RSTIN may be driven active by the chip  
logic e.g. in order to support external equipment which is required for startup (e.g. flash  
memory).  
Bidirectional reset reflects internal reset sources (software, watchdog) also to the RSTIN  
pin and converts short hardware reset pulses to a minimum duration of the internal reset  
sequence. Bidirectional reset is enabled by setting bit BDRSTEN in register SYSCON  
and changes RSTIN from a pure input to an open drain IO line. When an internal reset  
is triggered by the SRST instruction or by a watchdog timer overflow or a low level is  
applied to the RSTIN line, an internal driver pulls it low for the duration of the internal  
reset sequence. After that it is released and is then controlled by the external circuitry  
alone.  
The bidirectional reset function is useful in applications where external devices require  
a defined reset signal but cannot be connected to the C167CR’s RSTOUT signal, e.g.  
an external flash memory which must come out of reset and deliver code well before  
RSTOUT can be deactivated via EINIT.  
The following behavior differences must be observed when using the bidirectional reset  
feature in an application:  
• Bit BDRSTEN in register SYSCON cannot be changed after EINIT and is cleared  
automatically after a reset.  
• The reset indication flags always indicate a long hardware reset.  
• The PORT0 configuration is treated like on a hardware reset. Especially the bootstrap  
loader may be activated when P0L.4 is low.  
• PinRSTINmay only be connected to external reset devices with an open drain output driver.  
• A short hardware reset is extended to the duration of the internal reset sequence.  
The Reset Output RSTOUT provides a special reset signal for external circuitry.  
RSTOUT is activated at the beginning of the reset sequence, triggered via RSTIN, a  
watchdog timer overflow or by the SRST instruction. RSTOUT remains active (low) until  
the EINIT instruction is executed. This allows to initialize the controller before the  
external circuitry is activated.  
Note: During emulation mode pin RSTOUT is used as an input and therefore must be  
driven by the external circuitry.

The Power Supply pins for the Analog/Digital Converter VAREF and VAGND  
provide a separate power supply (reference voltage) for the on-chip ADC. This reduces  
the noise that is coupled to the analog input signals from the digital logic sections and so  
improves the stability of the conversion results, when VAREF and VAGND are properly  
discoupled from VDD and VSS.  
The Power Supply pins VDD and VSS provide the power supply for the digital logic of  
the C167CR. The respective VDD/VSS pairs should be decoupled as close to the pins  
as possible. For best results it is recommended to implement two-level decoupling, e.g.  
(the widely used) 100 nF in parallel with 30 … 40 pF capacitors which deliver the peak  
currents.  
Note: All VDD pins and all VSS pins must be connected to the power supply and ground,  
respectively.  
The Oscillator Watchdog Enable input OWE enables the oscillator watchdog, when  
driven high or disables it, when driven low e.g. for testing purposes. An internal pullup  
device holds this input high if nothing is driving it.  
For normal operation pin OWE should be high or not connected. The oscillator watchdog  
can be disabled via software by setting bit OWDDIS in register SYSCON.

The External Bus Interface  
Although the C167CR provides a powerful set of on-chip peripherals and on-chip RAM  
and ROM/OTP/Flash (except for ROMless versions) areas, these internal units only  
cover a small fraction of its address space of up to 16 MByte. The external bus interface  
allows to access external peripherals and additional volatile and non-volatile memory.  
The external bus interface provides a number of configurations, so it can be tailored to  
fit perfectly into a given application system.

Accesses to external memory or peripherals are executed by the integrated External Bus  
Controller (EBC). The function of the EBC is controlled via the SYSCON register and the  
BUSCONx and ADDRSELx registers. The BUSCONx registers specify the external bus  
cycles in terms of address (mux/demux), data width (16-bit/8-bit), chip selects and length  
(waitstates/READY control/ALE/RW delay). These parameters are used for accesses  
within a specific address area which is defined via the corresponding register  
ADDRSELx.  
The four pairs BUSCON1/ADDRSEL1 … BUSCON4/ADDRSEL4 allow to define four  
independent “address windows”, while all external accesses outside these windows are  
controlled via register BUSCON0.

Single Chip Mode  
Single chip mode is entered, when pin EA is high during reset. In this case register  
BUSCON0 is initialized with 0000 , which also resets bit BUSACT0, so no external bus  
H
is enabled.  
In single chip mode the C167CR operates only with and out of internal resources. No  
external bus is configured and no external peripherals and/or memory can be accessed.  
Also no port lines are occupied for the bus interface. When running in single chip mode,  
however, external access may be enabled by configuring an external bus under software  
control. Single chip mode allows the C167CR to start execution out of the internal  
program memory (Mask-ROM, OTP or Flash memory).  
Note: Any attempt to access a location in the external memory space in single chip mode  
results in the hardware trap ILLBUS if no external bus has been explicitly enabled  
by software.

The bus configuration (BTYP) for the address windows (BUSCON4 … BUSCON1) is  
selected via software typically during the initialization of the system.  
The bus configuration (BTYP) for the default address range (BUSCON0) is selected via  
PORT0 during reset, provided that pin EA is low during reset. Otherwise BUSCON0 may  
be programmed via software just like the other BUSCON registers.  
The 16 MByte address space of the C167CR is divided into 256 segments of 64 KByte  
each. The 16-bit intra-segment address is output on PORT0 for multiplexed bus modes  
or on PORT1 for demultiplexed bus modes. When segmentation is disabled, only one  
64 KByte segment can be used and accessed. Otherwise additional address lines may  
be output on Port 4 (addressing up to 16 MByte) and/or several chip select lines may be  
used to select different memory banks or peripherals. These functions are selected  
during reset via bitfields SALSEL and CSSEL of register RP0H, respectively.  
Note: Bit SGTDIS of register SYSCON defines, if the CSP register is saved during  
interrupt entry (segmentation active) or not (segmentation disabled).

The External Bus Interface  
Multiplexed Bus Modes  
In the multiplexed bus modes the 16-bit intra-segment address as well as the data use  
PORT0. The address is time-multiplexed with the data and has to be latched externally.  
The width of the required latch depends on the selected data bus width, i.e. an 8-bit data  
bus requires a byte latch (the address bits A15 … A8 on P0H do not change, while P0L  
multiplexes address and data), a 16-bit data bus requires a word latch (the least  
significant address line A0 is not relevant for word accesses).  
The upper address lines (An … A16) are permanently output on Port 4 (if segmentation  
is enabled) and do not require latches.  
The EBC initiates an external access by generating the Address Latch Enable signal  
(ALE) and then placing an address on the bus. The falling edge of ALE triggers an  
external latch to capture the address. After a period of time during which the address  
must have been latched externally, the address is removed from the bus. The EBC now  
activates the respective command signal (RD, WR, WRL, WRH). Data is driven onto the  
bus either by the EBC (for write cycles) or by the external memory/peripheral (for read  
cycles). After a period of time, which is determined by the access time of the memory/  
peripheral, data become valid.  
Read cycles: Input data is latched and the command signal is now deactivated. This  
causes the accessed device to remove its data from the bus which is then tri-stated  
again.  
Write cycles: The command signal is now deactivated. The data remain valid on the bus  
until the next external bus cycle is started.

Demultiplexed Bus Modes  
In the demultiplexed bus modes the 16-bit intra-segment address is permanently output  
on PORT1, while the data uses PORT0 (16-bit data) or P0L (8-bit data).  
The upper address lines are permanently output on Port 4 (if selected via SALSEL  
during reset). No address latches are required.  
The EBC initiates an external access by placing an address on the address bus. After a  
programmable period of time the EBC activates the respective command signal (RD,  
WR, WRL, WRH). Data is driven onto the data bus either by the EBC (for write cycles)  
or by the external memory/peripheral (for read cycles). After a period of time, which is  
determined by the access time of the memory/peripheral, data become valid.  
Read cycles: Input data is latched and the command signal is now deactivated. This  
causes the accessed device to remove its data from the data bus which is then tri-stated  
again.  
Write cycles: The command signal is now deactivated. If a subsequent external bus  
cycle is required, the EBC places the respective address on the address bus. The data  
remain valid on the bus until the next external bus cycle is started.

Switching Between the Bus Modes  
The EBC allows to switch between different bus modes dynamically, i.e. subsequent  
external bus cycles may be executed in different ways. Certain address areas may use  
multiplexed or demultiplexed buses or use READY control or predefined waitstates.  
A change of the external bus characteristics can be initiated in two different ways:  
Reprogramming the BUSCON and/or ADDRSEL registers allows to either change  
the bus mode for a given address window, or change the size of an address window that  
uses a certain bus mode. Reprogramming allows to use a great number of different  
address windows (more than BUSCONs are available) on the expense of the overhead  
for changing the registers and keeping appropriate tables.  
Switching between predefined address windows automatically selects the bus mode  
that is associated with the respective window. Predefined address windows allow to use  
different bus modes without any overhead, but restrict their number to the number of  
BUSCONs. However, as BUSCON0 controls all address areas, which are not covered  
by the other BUSCONs, this allows to have gaps between these windows, which use the  
bus mode of BUSCON0.  
PORT1 will output the intra-segment address, when any of the BUSCON registers  
selects a demultiplexed bus mode, even if the current bus cycle uses a multiplexed bus  
mode. This allows to have an external address decoder connected to PORT1 only, while  
using it for all kinds of bus cycles.  
Note: Never change the configuration for an address area that currently supplies the  
instruction stream. Due to the internal pipelining it is very difficult to determine the  
first instruction fetch that will use the new configuration. Only change the  
configuration for address areas that are not currently accessed. This applies to  
BUSCON registers as well as to ADDRSEL registers.  
The usage of the BUSCON/ADDRSEL registers is controlled via the issued addresses.  
When an access (code fetch or data) is initiated, the respective generated physical  
address defines, if the access is made internally, uses one of the address windows  
defined by ADDRSEL4 … 1, or uses the default configuration in BUSCON0. After  
initializing the active registers, they are selected and evaluated automatically by  
interpreting the physical address. No additional switching or selecting is necessary  
during run time, except when more than the four address windows plus the default is to  
be used.  
Switching from demultiplexed to multiplexed bus mode represents a special case.  
The bus cycle is started by activating ALE and driving the address to Port 4 and PORT1  
as usual, if another BUSCON register selects a demultiplexed bus. However, in the  
multiplexed bus modes the address is also required on PORT0. In this special case the  
address on PORT0 is delayed by one CPU clock cycle, which delays the complete  
(multiplexed) bus cycle and extends the corresponding ALE signal (see Figure 9-4).

The External Bus Interface  
External Data Bus Width  
The EBC can operate on 8-bit or 16-bit wide external memory/peripherals. A 16-bit data  
bus uses PORT0, while an 8-bit data bus only uses P0L, the lower byte of PORT0. This  
saves on address latches, bus transceivers, bus routing and memory cost on the  
expense of transfer time. The EBC can control word accesses on an 8-bit data bus as  
well as byte accesses on a 16-bit data bus.  
Word accesses on an 8-bit data bus are automatically split into two subsequent byte  
accesses, where the low byte is accessed first, then the high byte. The assembly of bytes  
to words and the disassembly of words into bytes is handled by the EBC and is  
transparent to the CPU and the programmer.  
Byte accesses on a 16-bit data bus require that the upper and lower half of the memory  
can be accessed individually. In this case the upper byte is selected with the BHEsignal,  
while the lower byte is selected with the A0 signal. So the two bytes of the memory can  
be enabled independent from each other, or together when accessing words.  
When writing bytes to an external 16-bit device, which has a single CS input, but two WR  
enable inputs (for the two bytes), the EBC can directly generate these two write control  
signals. This saves the external combination of the WR signal with A0 or BHE. In this  
case pin WR serves as WRL (write low byte) and pin BHE serves as WRH (write high  
byte). Bit WRCFG in register SYSCON selects the operating mode for pins WR and  
BHE. The respective byte will be written on both data bus halfs.  
When reading bytes from an external 16-bit device, whole words may be read and the  
C167CR automatically selects the byte to be input and discards the other. However, care  
must be taken when reading devices that change state when being read, like FIFOs,  
interrupt status registers, etc. In this case individual bytes should be selected using BHE  
and A0.

disabled and the pin can be used as standard IO pin. The BHE pin is implicitly used by  
the External Bus Controller to select one of two byte-organized memory chips, which are  
connected to the C167CR via a word-wide external data bus. After reset the BHE  
function is automatically enabled (BYTDIS = ‘0’), if a 16-bit data bus is selected during  
reset, otherwise it is disabled (BYTDIS = ‘1’). It may be disabled, if byte access to 16-bit  
memory is not required, and the BHE signal is not used.  
Segment Address Generation  
During external accesses the EBC generates a (programmable) number of address lines  
on Port 4, which extend the 16-bit address output on PORT0 or PORT1 and so increase  
the accessible address space. The number of segment address lines is selected during  
reset and coded in bit field SALSEL in register RP0 (see Table 9-3).

During external accesses the EBC can generate a (programmable) number of CS lines

The CSx outputs are associated with the BUSCONx registers and are driven active (low)  
for any access within the address area defined for the respective BUSCON register. For  
any access outside this defined address area the respective CSx signal will go inactive  
(high). At the beginning of each external bus cycle the corresponding valid CS signal is  
determined and activated. All other CS lines are deactivated (driven high) at the same  
time.  
Note: The CSx signals will not be updated for an access to any internal address area  
(i.e. when no external bus cycle is started), even if this area is covered by the  
respective ADDRSELx register. An access to an on-chip X-Peripheral deactivates  
all external CS signals.  
Upon accesses to address windows without a selected CS line all selected CS  
lines are deactivated.  
The chip select signals allow to be operated in four different modes (see Table 9-5)

Read or Write Chip Select signals remain active only as long as the associated control  
signal (RD or WR) is active. This also includes the programmable read/write delay. Read  
chip select is only activated for read cycles, write chip select is only activated for write  
cycles, read/write chip select is activated for both read and write cycles (write cycles are  
assumed, if any of the signals WRH or WRL gets active). These modes save external  
glue logic, when accessing external devices like latches or drivers that only provide a  
single enable input.  
Address Chip Select signals remain active during the complete bus cycle. For address  
chip select signals two generation modes can be selected via bit CSCFG in register  
SYSCON:  
• A latched address chip select signal (CSCFG = ‘0’) becomes active with the falling  
edge of ALE and becomes inactive at the beginning of an external bus cycle that  
accesses a different address window. No spikes will be generated on the chip select  
lines and no changes occur as long as locations within the same address window or  
within internal memory (excluding X-Peripherals and XRAM) are accessed.  
• An early address chip select signal (CSCFG = ‘1’) becomes active together with the  
address and BHE (if enabled) and remains active until the end of the current bus cycle.  
Early address chip select signals are not latched internally and may toggle  
intermediately while the address is changing.  
Note: CS0 provides a latched address chip select directly after reset (except for single  
chip mode) when the first instruction is fetched.  
Internal pullup devices hold all CS lines high during reset. After the end of a reset  
sequence the pullup devices are switched off and the pin drivers control the pin levels  
on the selected CS lines. Not selected CS lines will enter the high-impedance state and  
are available for general purpose IO.  
The pullup devices are also active during bus hold on the selected CS lines, while HLDA  
is active and the respective pin is switched to push/pull mode. Open drain outputs will  
float during bus hold. In this case external pullup devices are required or the new bus  
master is responsible for driving appropriate levels on the CS lines.  
Segment Address versus Chip Select  
The external bus interface of the C167CR supports many configurations for the external  
memory. By increasing the number of segment address lines the C167CR can address  
a linear address space of 256 KByte, 1 MByte or 16 MByte. This allows to implement a  
large sequential memory area, and also allows to access a great number of external  
devices, using an external decoder. By increasing the number of CS lines the C167CR  
can access memory banks or peripherals without external glue logic. These two features  
may be combined to optimize the overall system performance.  
Note: Bit SGTDIS of register SYSCON defines, if the CSP register is saved during  
interrupt entry (segmentation active) or not (segmentation disabled).

Programmable Bus Characteristics  
Important timing characteristics of the external bus interface have been made user  
programmable to allow to adapt it to a wide range of different external bus and memory  
configurations with different types of memories and/or peripherals.  
The following parameters of an external bus cycle are programmable:  
ALE Control defines the ALE signal length and the address hold time after its falling  
edge  
Memory Cycle Time (extendable with 1 … 15 waitstates) defines the allowable  
access time  
Memory Tri-State Time (extendable with 1 waitstate) defines the time for a data  
driver to float  
Read/Write Delay Time defines when a command is activated after the falling edge  
of ALE  
READY Control defines, if a bus cycle is terminated internally or externally  
Note: Internal accesses are executed with maximum speed and therefore are not  
programmable.  
External accesses use the slowest possible bus cycle after reset. The bus cycle  
timing may then be optimized by the initialization software.

ALE Length Control  
The length of the ALE signal and the address hold time after its falling edge are  
controlled by the ALECTLx bits in the BUSCON registers. When bit ALECTL is set to ‘1’,  
external bus cycles accessing the respective address window will have their ALE signal  
prolonged by half a CPU clock (1 TCL). Also the address hold time after the falling edge  
of ALE (on a multiplexed bus) will be prolonged by half a CPU clock, so the data transfer  
within a bus cycle refers to the same CLKOUT edges as usual (i.e. the data transfer is  
delayed by one CPU clock). This allows more time for the address to be latched.  
Note: ALECTL0 is ‘1’ after reset to select the slowest possible bus cycle, the other  
ALECTLx are ‘0’ after reset.

Programmable Memory Cycle Time  
The C167CR allows the user to adjust the controller’s external bus cycles to the access  
time of the respective memory or peripheral. This access time is the total time required  
to move the data to the destination. It represents the period of time during which the  
controller’s signals do not change.

Memory Cycle Time  
The external bus cycles of the C167CR can be extended for a memory or peripheral,  
which cannot keep pace with the controller’s maximum speed, by introducing wait states  
during the access (see Figure 9-7). During these memory cycle time wait states, the  
CPU is idle, if this access is required for the execution of the current instruction.  
The memory cycle time wait states can be programmed in increments of one CPU clock  
(2 TCL) within a range from 0 to 15 (default after reset) via the MCTC fields of the  
BUSCON registers. 15 – <MCTC> waitstates will be inserted.

(RD).

Figure 9-8  
Memory Tri-state Time  
The output of the next address on the external bus can be delayed for a memory or  
peripheral, which needs more time to switch off its bus drivers, by introducing a wait state  
after the previous bus cycle (see Figure 9-8). During this memory tri-state time wait  
state, the CPU is not idle, so CPU operations will only be slowed down if a subsequent  
external instruction or data fetch operation is required during the next instruction cycle.  
The memory tri-state time waitstate requires one CPU clock (2 TCL) and is controlled via  
the MTTCx bits of the BUSCON registers. A waitstate will be inserted, if bit MTTCx is ‘0’  
(default after reset).  
Note: External bus cycles in multiplexed bus modes implicitly add one tri-state time  
waitstate in addition to the programmable MTTC waitstate.

Read/Write Signal Delay  
The C167CR allows the user to adjust the timing of the read and write commands to  
account for timing requirements of external peripherals. The read/write delay controls the  
time between the falling edge of ALE and the falling edge of the command. Without read/  
write delay the falling edges of ALE and command(s) are coincident (except for  
propagation delays). With the delay enabled, the command(s) become active half a CPU  
clock (1 TCL) after the falling edge of ALE.  
The read/write delay does not extend the memory cycle time, and does not slow down  
the controller in general. In multiplexed bus modes, however, the data drivers of an  
external device may conflict with the C167CR’s address, when the early RD signal is  
used. Therefore multiplexed bus cycles should always be programmed with read/write  
delay.  
The read/write delay is controlled via the RWDCx bits in the BUSCON registers. The  
command(s) will be delayed, if bit RWDCx is ‘0’ (default after reset).

READY Controlled Bus Cycles  
For situations, where the programmable waitstates are not enough, or where the  
response (access) time of a peripheral is not constant, the C167CR provides external  
bus cycles that are terminated via a READY input signal (synchronous or  
asynchronous). In this case the C167CR first inserts a programmable number of  
waitstates (0 … 7) and then monitors the READY line to determine the actual end of the  
current bus cycle. The external device drives READY low in order to indicate that data  
have been latched (write cycle) or are available (read cycle).  
Figure 9-10 READY Controlled Bus Cycles  
The READY function is enabled via the RDYENx bits in the BUSCON registers. When  
this function is selected (RDYENx = ‘1’), only the lower 3 bits of the respective MCTC bit  
field define the number of inserted waitstates (0 … 7), while the MSB of bit field MCTC  
selects the READY operation:  
MCTC.3 = ‘0’: Synchronous READY, i.e. the READY signal must meet setup and hold  
times.  
MCTC.3 = ‘1’: Asynchronous READY, i.e. the READY signal is synchronized internally.

V3.1, 2000-03  
C167CR  
Derivatives  
The External Bus Interface  
The Synchronous READY provides the fastest bus cycles, but requires setup and hold  
times to be met. The CLKOUT signal should be enabled and may be used by the  
peripheral logic to control the READY timing in this case.  
The Asynchronous READY is less restrictive, but requires additional waitstates caused  
by the internal synchronization. As the asynchronous READY is sampled earlier (see  
Figure 9-10) programmed waitstates may be necessary to provide proper bus cycles  
(see also notes on “normally-ready” peripherals below).  
A READY signal (especially asynchronous READY) that has been activated by an  
external device may be deactivated in response to the trailing (rising) edge of the  
respective command (RD or WR).  
Note: When the READY function is enabled for a specific address window, each bus  
cycle within this window must be terminated with an active READY signal.  
Otherwise the controller hangs until the next reset. A timeout function is only  
provided by the watchdog timer.  
Combining the READY function with predefined waitstates is advantageous in two  
cases:  
Memory components with a fixed access time and peripherals operating with READY  
may be grouped into the same address window. The (external) waitstate control logic in  
this case would activate READY either upon the memory’s chip select or with the  
peripheral’s READY output. After the predefined number of waitstates the C167CR will  
check its READY line to determine the end of the bus cycle. For a memory access it will  
be low already (see example a) in Figure 9-10), for a peripheral access it may be  
delayed (see example b) in Figure 9-10). As memories tend to be faster than  
peripherals, there should be no impact on system performance.  
When using the READY function with so-called “normally-ready” peripherals, it may lead  
to erroneous bus cycles, if the READY line is sampled too early. These peripherals pull  
their READY output low, while they are idle. When they are accessed, they deactivate  
READY until the bus cycle is complete, then drive it low again. If, however, the peripheral  
deactivates READY after the first sample point of the C167CR, the controller samples  
an active READY and terminates the current bus cycle, which, of course, is too early. By  
inserting predefined waitstates the first READY sample point can be shifted to a time,  
where the peripheral has safely controlled the READY line (e.g. after 2 waitstates in  
Figure 9-10).

Controlling the External Bus Controller  
A set of registers controls the functions of the EBC. General features like the usage of  
interface pins (WR, BHE), segmentation and internal ROM mapping are controlled via  
register SYSCON. The properties of a bus cycle like chip select mode, usage of READY,  
length of ALE, external bus mode, read/write delay and waitstates are controlled via  
registers BUSCON4 … BUSCON0. Four of these registers (BUSCON4 … BUSCON1)  
have an address select register (ADDRSEL4 … ADDRSEL1) associated with them,  
which allows to specify up to four address areas and the individual bus characteristics  
within these areas. All accesses that are not covered by these four areas are then  
controlled via BUSCON0. This allows to use memory components or peripherals with  
different interfaces within the same system, while optimizing accesses to each of them.

Definition of Address Areas  
The four register pairs BUSCON4/ADDRSEL4 … BUSCON1/ADDRSEL1 allow to define  
4 separate address areas within the address space of the C167CR. Within each of these  
address areas external accesses can be controlled by one of the four different bus  
modes, independent of each other and of the bus mode specified in register BUSCON0.  
Each ADDRSELx register in a way cuts out an address window, within which the  
parameters in register BUSCONx are used to control external accesses. The range start  
address of such a window defines the upper address bits, which are not used within the  
address window of the specified size (see Table 9-6). For a given window size only  
those upper address bits of the start address are used (marked “R”), which are not  
implicitly used for addresses inside the window. The lower bits of the start address  
(marked “x”) are disregarded.

Address Window Arbitration  
The address windows that can be defined within the C167CR’s address space may  
partly overlap each other. Thus e.g. small areas may be cut out of bigger windows in  
order to effectively utilize external resources, especially within segment 0.  
For each access the EBC compares the current address with all address select registers  
(programmable ADDRSELx and hardwired XADRSx). This comparison is done in four  
levels.  
Priority 1: The hardwired XADRSx registers are evaluated first. A match with one of  
these registers directs the access to the respective X-Peripheral using the  
corresponding XBCONx register and ignoring all other ADDRSELx regis-  
ters.  
Priority 2: Registers ADDRSEL2 and ADDRSEL4 are evaluated before ADDRSEL1  
and ADDRSEL3, respectively. A match with one of these registers directs  
the access to the respective external area using the corresponding BUS-  
CONx register and ignoring registers ADDRSEL1/3 (see Figure 9-11).  
Priority 3: A match with registers ADDRSEL1 or ADDRSEL3 directs the access to the  
respective external area using the corresponding BUSCONx register.  
Priority 4: If there is no match with any XADRSx or ADDRSELx register the access to  
the external bus uses register BUSCON0.

Precautions and Hints  
• The ext. bus interface is enabled as long as at least one of the BUSCON registers has  
its BUSACT bit set.  
• PORT1 will output the intra-segment addr. as long as at least one of the BUSCON  
registers selects a demultiplexed external bus, even for multiplexed bus cycles.  
• Not all addr. windows defined via registers ADDRSELx may overlap each other. The  
operation of the EBC will be unpredictable in such a case. See “Address Window  
Arbitration” on Page 9-25.  
• The addr. windows defined via registers ADDRSELx may overlap internal addr. areas.  
Internal accesses will be executed in this case.  
• For any access to an internal addr. area the EBC will remain inactive (see EBC Idle  
State).

EBC Idle State  
When the external bus interface is enabled, but no external access is currently executed,  
the EBC is idle. As long as only internal resources (from an architecture point of view)  
like IRAM, GPRs or SFRs, etc. are used the external bus interface does not change (see  
Table 9-7).  
Accesses to on-chip X-Peripherals are also controlled by the EBC. However, even  
though an X-Peripheral appears like an external peripheral to the controller, the  
respective accesses do not generate valid external bus cycles.  
Due to timing constraints address and write data of an XBUS cycle are reflected on the  
external bus interface (see Table 9-7). The “address” mentioned above includes  
PORT1, Port 4, BHE and ALE which also pulses for an XBUS cycle. The external CS  
signals on Port 6 are driven inactive (high) because the EBC switches to an internal XCS  
signal.  
The external control signals (RD and WR or WRL/WRH if enabled) remain inactive (high).

9.7  
External Bus Arbitration  
In embedded systems it may be efficient to share external resources like memory banks  
or peripheral devices among more than one microcontroller or processor. The C167CR  
supports this approach with the possibility to arbitrate the access to its external bus, i.e.  
to the external resources. Several bus masters can therefore use the same set of  
resources, resulting in compact, though powerful systems.  
Note: Sharing external resources is useful if these resources are used to a limited  
amount only. The performance of a bus master which relies on these external  
resources to a great extent (e.g. external code) will be reduced by the bandwidth  
used by the other masters.  
Bus arbitration uses three control signals (HOLD, HLDA/BGR, BREQ) and can be  
enabled and disabled via software (PSW.HLDEN), e.g. in order to protect time-critical  
code sections from being suspended by other bus masters. A bus arbiter logic can be  
designed to determine which of the bus masters controls the external system at a given  
time.  
Using the specific master and slave modes for bus arbitration saves external glue logic  
(bus arbiter) when connecting two devices of the C166 Family.  
Note: Bus arbitration does not work if there is no clock signal for the EBC, i.e. during Idle  
mode and Powerdown mode.  
Signals and Control  
The upper three pins of Port 6 are used for the bus arbitration interface. Table 9-8  
summarizes the functions of these interface lines.  
The external bus arbitration is enabled by setting bit HLDEN in register PSW to ‘1’. In  
this case the three bus arbitration pins HOLD, HLDA and BREQ are automatically  
controlled by the EBC independent of their IO configuration.  
Bit HLDEN may be cleared during the execution of program sequences, where the  
external resources are required but cannot be shared with other bus masters, or during  
sequences which need to access on-chip XBUS resources but which shall not be  
interrupted by hold states. In this case the C167CR will not answer to HOLD requests  
from other external masters. If HLDEN is cleared while the C167CR is in Hold State  
(code execution from internal RAM/ROM) this Hold State is left only after HOLD has  
been deactivated again. I.e. in this case the current Hold State continues and only the  
next HOLD request is not answered.  
Note: The pins HOLD, HLDA and BREQ keep their alternate function (bus arbitration)  
even after the arbitration mechanism has been switched off by clearing HLDEN.  
All three pins are used for bus arbitration after bit HLDEN was set once.

Arbitration Sequences  
An external master may request the C167CR’s bus via the HOLD input. After completing  
the currently running bus cycle the C167CR acknowledges this request via the HLDA  
output and will then float its bus lines (internal pullups at CSx, RD, and WR, internal  
pulldown at ALE). The new master may now access the peripheral devices or memory  
banks via the same interface lines as the C167CR. During this time the C167CR can  
keep on executing, as long as it does not need access to the external bus. All actions  
that just require internal resources like instruction or data memory and on-chip generic  
peripherals, may be executed in parallel.  
Note: The XBUS is an internal representation of the external bus interface. Accesses to  
XBUS peripherals use the EBC and therefore also cannot be executed during the  
bus hold state.  
When the C167CR needs access to its external bus while it is occupied by another bus  
master, it demands it via the BREQ output. The arbiter can then remove the current  
master from the bus. This is indicated to the C167CR by deactivating its HOLD input.  
The C167CR responds by deactivating its HLDA signal, and then taking control of the  
external bus itself. Of course also the request signal BREQ is deactivated after getting  
control of the bus back.

Entering the Hold State  
Access to the C167CR’s external bus is requested by driving its HOLD input low. After  
synchronizing this signal the C167CR will complete a current external bus cycle or XBUS  
cycle (if any is active), release the external bus and grant access to it by driving the  
HLDA output low. During hold state the C167CR treats the external bus interface as  
follows:  
• Address and data bus(es) float to tri-state  
• ALE is pulled low by an internal pulldown device  
• Command lines are pulled high by internal pullup devices (RD, WR)  
• CSx outputs are driven high for 1 TCL and then pulled high (in push/pull mode),  
or float to tri-state (in open drain mode)  
Should the C167CR require access to its external bus or XBUS during hold mode, it  
activates its bus request output BREQ to notify the arbitration circuitry. BREQ is  
activated only during hold mode. It will be inactive during normal operation.  
Figure 9-12 External Bus Arbitration, Releasing the Bus  
Note: The C167CR will complete the currently running bus cycle before granting bus  
access as indicated by the broken lines. This may delay hold acknowledge  
compared to this figure.  
Figure 9-12 shows the first possibility for BREQ to get active.  
During bus hold pin BHE/WRH is floating. An external pullup should be used if this  
is required.

Exiting the Hold State  
The external bus master returns the access rights to the C167CR by driving the HOLD  
input high. After synchronizing this signal the C167CR will drive the HLDA output high,  
actively drive the control signals and resume executing external bus cycles if required.  
Depending on the arbitration logic, the external bus can be returned to the C167CR  
under two circumstances:  
• The external master does no more require access to the shared resources and gives  
up its own access rights, or  
• The C167CR needs access to the shared resources and demands this by activating  
its BREQ output. The arbitration logic may then activate the other master’s HOLD and  
so free the external bus for the C167CR, depending on the priority of the different  
masters.  
Note: The Hold State is not terminated by clearing bit HLDEN.

Connecting Bus Masters  
When multiple bus masters (C167CRs or other masters) shall share external resources  
a bus arbiter is required that determines the currently active bus master and also enables  
a C167CR which has surrendered its bus interface to regain control of it in case it must  
access the shared external resources.  
The structure of this bus arbiter defines the degree of control the C167CR has over the  
external bus system. Whenever the C167CR has released the bus, there is no way of  
actively regaining control of it, besides the activation of the BREQ signal. In any case the  
C167CR must wait for the deactivation of its HOLD input.  
Note: The full arbitration logic is required if the “other” bus master does not automatically  
remove its hold request after having used the shared resources.

When two C167CRs (or other members of the C166 Family) are to be connected in this  
way the external bus arbitration logic (normally required to combine the respective output  
signals HLDA and BREQ) can be left out.  
In this case one of the controllers operates in Master Mode (the standard default  
operating mode, DP6.7 = ‘0’), while the other one must operate in Slave Mode (selected  
with DP6.7 = ‘1’). In this configuration the master-device normally controls the external  
bus, while the slave-device gets control of it on demand only. In most cases this requires  
that (at least) the slave-device operates out of internal resources most of the time, in  
order to get an acceptable overall system performance.

In Slave Mode the C167CR inverts the direction of its HLDA pin and uses it as the bus  
grant input BGR, while the master’s HLDA pin remains an output. This permits the direct  
connection of these two signals without any additional glue logic for bus arbitration. The  
BREQ outputs are mutually connected to the other partner’s HOLD input (see  
Figure 9-15).

Figure 9-15 Sharing External Resources Using Slave Mode  
Slave Mode is selected by intentionally switching pin BREQ to output (DP6.7 = ‘1’).  
Normally the port direction register bits for the arbitration interface pins retain their reset  
value which is ‘0’. Clearing bit DP6.7 (or preserving the reset value) selects Master  
Mode, where the device operates compatible with earlier versions without the slave  
mode feature.  
Note: If the C167CR operates in slave mode and executes a loop out of external memory  
which fits completely into the jump cache (e.g. JB bitaddr, $) its BREQ output may  
toggle (period = 2 CPU clock cycles). BREQ is activated by the prefetcher that  
wants to read the next sequential intstruction. BREQ is the deactivated, because  
the target of the taken jump is found in the jump cache. A loop of a minimum length  
of 3 words avoids this.

The XBUS Interface  
The C167CR provides an on-chip interface (the XBUS interface), via which integrated  
customer/application specific peripherals can be connected to the standard controller  
core. The XBUS is an internal representation of the external bus interface, i.e. it is  
operated in the same way.  
For each peripheral on the XBUS (X-Peripheral) there is a separate address window  
controlled by a register pair XBCONx/XADRSx (similar to registers BUSCONx and  
ADDRSELx). As an interface to a peripheral in many cases is represented by just a few  
registers, the XADRSx registers partly select smaller address windows than the standard  
ADDRSEL registers. As the XBCONx/XADRSx register pairs control integrated  
peripherals rather than externally connected ones, they are fixed by mask programming  
rather than being user programmable.  
X-Peripheral accesses provide the same choices as external accesses, so these  
peripherals may be bytewide or wordwide. Because the on-chip connection can be  
realized very efficient and for performance reasons X-Peripherals are only implemented  
with a separate address bus, i.e. in demultiplexed bus mode. Interrupt nodes are  
provided for X-Peripherals to be integrated.  
Note: If you plan to develop a peripheral of your own to be integrated into a C167CR  
device to create a customer specific version, please ask for the specification of the  
XBUS interface and for further support.

Visible Mode  
The C167CR can mirror on-chip access cycles to its XBUS peripherals so these  
accesses can be observed or recorded by the external system. This function is enabled  
via bit VISIBLE in register SYSCON.  
Accesses to XBUS peripherals also use the EBC. Due to timing constraints the address  
bus will change for all accesses using the EBC.  
Note: As XBUS peripherals use demultiplexed bus cycles, the respective address is  
driven on PORT1 in visible mode, even if the external system uses MUX buses  
only.  
If visible mode is activated, accesses to on-chip XBUS peripherals (including control  
signals RD, WR, and BHE) are mirrored to the bus interface. Accesses to internal  
resources (program memory, IRAM, GPRs) do not use the EBC and cannot be mirrored  
to outside.  
If visible mode is deactivated, however, no control signals (RD, WR) will be activated,  
i.e. there will be no valid external bus cycles.  
Note: Visible mode can only work if the external bus is enabled at all.

External Accesses to XBUS Peripherals  
The on-chip XBUS peripherals of the C167CR can be accessed from outside via the  
external bus interface under certain circumstances. In emulation mode the XBUS  
peripherals are controlled by the bondout-chip. During normal operation this external  
access is accomplished selecting the XPER-Share mode.  
XPER-Share Mode  
The C167CR can share its on-chip XBUS peripherals with other (external) bus masters,  
i.e. it can allow them to access its X-Peripherals while it is in hold mode. This external  
access is enabled via bit XPERSHARE in register SYSCON and is only possible while  
the host controller is in hold mode.  
During XPER-Share mode the C167CR’s bus interface inverts its direction so the  
external master can drive address, control, and data signals to the respective peripheral.  
This can be used e.g. to install a mailbox memory in a multi-processor system.  
Note: When XPER-Share mode is disabled no accesses to on-chip XBUS peripherals  
can be executed from outside.

The General Purpose Timer Units  
The General Purpose Timer Units GPT1 and GPT2 represent very flexible  
multifunctional timer structures which may be used for timing, event counting, pulse  
width measurement, pulse generation, frequency multiplication, and other purposes.  
They incorporate five 16-bit timers that are grouped into the two timer blocks GPT1 and  
GPT2.  
Block GPT1 contains 3 timers/counters with a maximum resolution of 16 TCL, while  
block GPT2 contains 2 timers/counters with a maximum resolution of 8 TCL and a 16-bit  
Capture/Reload register (CAPREL). Each timer in each block may operate  
independently in a number of different modes such as gated timer or counter mode, or  
may be concatenated with another timer of the same block. The auxiliary timers of GPT1  
may optionally be configured as reload or capture registers for the core timer. In the  
GPT2 block, the additional CAPREL register supports capture and reload operation with  
extended functionality, and its core timer T6 may be concatenated with timers of the  
CAPCOM units (T0, T1, T7, and T8). Each block has alternate input/output functions and  
specific interrupts associated with it.

All three timers of block GPT1 (T2, T3, T4) can run in 4 basic modes, which are timer,  
gated timer, counter and incremental interface mode, and all timers can either count up  
or down. Each timer has an alternate input function pin (TxIN) associated with it which  
serves as the gate control in gated timer mode, or as the count input in counter mode.  
The count direction (Up/Down) may be programmed via software or may be dynamically  
altered by a signal at an external control input pin. Each overflow/underflow of core timer  
T3 is latched in the toggle FlipFlop T3OTL and may be indicated on an alternate output  
function pin. The auxiliary timers T2 and T4 may additionally be concatenated with the  
core timer, or used as capture or reload registers for the core timer.  
The current contents of each timer can be read or modified by the CPU by accessing the  
corresponding timer registers T2, T3, or T4, which are located in the non-bitaddressable  
SFR space. When any of the timer registers is written to by the CPU in the state  
immediately before a timer increment, decrement, reload, or capture is to be performed,  
the CPU write operation has priority in order to guarantee correct results.

Timer 3 Run Bit  
The timer can be started or stopped by software through bit T3R (Timer T3 Run Bit). If  
T3R = ‘0’, the timer stops. Setting T3R to ‘1’ will start the timer.In gated timer mode, the  
timer will only run if T3R = ‘1’ and the gate is active (high or low, as programmed).  
Count Direction Control  
The count direction of the core timer can be controlled either by software or by the  
external input pin T3EUD (Timer T3 External Up/Down Control Input), which is the  
alternate input function of port pin P3.4. These options are selected by bits T3UD and  
T3UDE in control register T3CON. When the up/down control is done by software (bit  
T3UDE = ‘0’), the count direction can be altered by setting or clearing bit T3UD. When  
T3UDE = ‘1’, pin T3EUD is selected to be the controlling source of the count direction.  
However, bit T3UD can still be used to reverse the actual count direction, as shown in  
Table 10-1. If T3UD = ‘0’ and pin T3EUD shows a low level, the timer is counting up.  
With a high level at T3EUD the timer is counting down. If T3UD = ‘1’, a high level at pin  
T3EUD specifies counting up, and a low level specifies counting down. The count  
direction can be changed regardless of whether the timer is running or not.  
When pin T3EUD/P3.4 is used as external count direction control input, it must be  
configured as input, i.e. its corresponding direction control bit DP3.4 must be set to ‘0’.

Timer 3 Output Toggle Latch  
An overflow or underflow of timer T3 will clock the toggle bit T3OTL in control register  
T3CON. T3OTL can also be set or reset by software. Bit T3OE (Alternate Output  
Function Enable) in register T3CON enables the state of T3OTL to be an alternate  
function of the external output pin T3OUT. For that purpose, a ‘1’ must be written into the  
respective port data latch and pin T3OUT must be configured as output by setting the  
corresponding direction control bit to ‘1’. If T3OE = ‘1’, pin T3OUT then outputs the state  
of T3OTL. If T3OE = ‘0’, pin T3OUT can be used as general purpose IO pin.  
In addition, T3OTL can be used in conjunction with the timer over/underflows as an input  
for the counter function or as a trigger source for the reload function of the auxiliary  
timers T2 and T4. For this purpose, the state of T3OTL does not have to be available at  
pin T3OUT, because an internal connection is provided for this option.  
Timer 3 in Timer Mode  
Timer mode for the core timer T3 is selected by setting bit field T3M in register T3CON  
to ‘000 ’. In this mode, T3 is clocked with the internal system clock (CPU clock) divided  
B
by a programmable prescaler, which is selected by bit field T3I. The input frequency fT3  
for timer T3 and its resolution rT3 are scaled linearly with lower clock frequencies fCPU  
,

If T3M.0 = ‘0’, the timer is enabled when T3IN shows a low level. A high level at this pin  
stops the timer. If T3M.0 = ‘1’, pin T3IN must have a high level in order to enable the  
timer. In addition, the timer can be turned on or off by software using bit T3R. The timer  
will only run, if T3R = ‘1’ and the gate is active. It will stop, if either T3R = ‘0’ or the gate  
is inactive.  
Note: A transition of the gate signal at pin T3IN does not cause an interrupt request.

Bitfield T3I in control register T3CON selects the triggering transitions (see Table 10-6).  
In this mode the sequence of the transitions of the two input signals is evaluated and  
generates count pulses as well as the direction signal. So T3 is modified automatically  
according to the speed and the direction of the incremental encoder and its contents  
therefore always represent the encoder’s current position.

The incremental encoder can be connected directly to the C167CR without external  
interface logic. In a standard system, however, comparators will be employed to convert  
the encoder’s differential outputs (e.g. A, A) to digital signals (e.g. A). This greatly  
increases noise immunity.  
Note: The third encoder output Top0, which indicates the mechanical zero position, may  
be connected to an external interrupt input and trigger a reset of timer T3 (e.g. via  
PEC transfer from ZEROS).

For incremental interface operation the following conditions must be met:  
• Bitfield T3M must be ‘110 ’.  
B
• Both pins T3IN and T3EUD must be configured as input, i.e. the respective direction  
control bits must be ‘0’.  
• Bit T3UDE must be ‘1’ to enable automatic direction control.  
The maximum counting frequency which is allowed in incremental interface mode is  
fCPU/16. To ensure that a transition of any input signal is correctly recognized, its level  
should be held high or low for at least 8 fCPU cycles before it changes. As in Incremental  
Interface Mode two input signals with a 90° phase shift are evaluated, their maximum  
input frequency can be fCPU/32.  
In Incremental Interface Mode the count direction is automatically derived from the  
sequence in which the input signals change, which corresponds to the rotation direction  
of the connected sensor. Table 10-7 summarizes the possible combinations.

Both auxiliary timers T2 and T4 have exactly the same functionality. They can be  
configured for timer, gated timer, counter, or incremental interface mode with the same  
options for the timer frequencies and the count signal as the core timer T3. In addition to  
these 4 counting modes, the auxiliary timers can be concatenated with the core timer, or  
they may be used as reload or capture registers in conjunction with the core timer.  
The individual configuration for timers T2 and T4 is determined by their bitaddressable  
control registers T2CON and T4CON, which are both organized identically. Note that  
functions which are present in all 3 timers of block GPT1 are controlled in the same bit  
positions and in the same manner in each of the specific control registers.

is correctly recognized, its level should be held for at least 8 fCPU cycles before it  
changes.

Timer Concatenation  
Using the toggle bit T3OTL as a clock source for an auxiliary timer in counter mode  
concatenates the core timer T3 with the respective auxiliary timer. Depending on which  
transition of T3OTL is selected to clock the auxiliary timer, this concatenation forms a 32-  
bit or a 33-bit timer/counter.  
32-bit Timer/Counter: If both a positive and a negative transition of T3OTL is used to  
clock the auxiliary timer, this timer is clocked on every overflow/underflow of the core  
timer T3. Thus, the two timers form a 32-bit timer.  
33-bit Timer/Counter: If either a positive or a negative transition of T3OTL is selected  
to clock the auxiliary timer, this timer is clocked on every second overflow/underflow  
of the core timer T3. This configuration forms a 33-bit timer (16-bit core timer + T3OTL  
+ 16-bit auxiliary timer).  
The count directions of the two concatenated timers are not required to be the same.  
This offers a wide variety of different configurations.  
T3 can operate in timer, gated timer or counter mode in this case.

Auxiliary Timer in Reload Mode  
Reload mode for the auxiliary timers T2 and T4 is selected by setting bit field TxM in the  
respective register TxCON to ‘100 ’. In reload mode the core timer T3 is reloaded with  
B
the contents of an auxiliary timer register, triggered by one of two different signals. The  
trigger signal is selected the same way as the clock source for counter mode (see  
Table 10-8), i.e. a transition of the auxiliary timer’s input or the output toggle latch T3OTL  
may trigger the reload.  
Note: When programmed for reload mode, the respective auxiliary timer (T2 or T4) stops  
independent of its run flag T2R or T4R.

The General Purpose Timer Units  
The reload mode triggered by T3OTL can be used in a number of different  
configurations. Depending on the selected active transition the following functions can  
be performed:  
• If both a positive and a negative transition of T3OTL is selected to trigger a reload, the  
core timer will be reloaded with the contents of the auxiliary timer each time it  
overflows or underflows. This is the standard reload mode (reload on overflow/  
underflow).  
• If either a positive or a negative transition of T3OTL is selected to trigger a reload, the  
core timer will be reloaded with the contents of the auxiliary timer on every second  
overflow or underflow.  
• Using this “single-transition” mode for both auxiliary timers allows to perform very  
flexible pulse width modulation (PWM). One of the auxiliary timers is programmed to  
reload the core timer on a positive transition of T3OTL, the other is programmed for a  
reload on a negative transition of T3OTL. With this combination the core timer is  
alternately reloaded from the two auxiliary timers.  
Figure 10-13 shows an example for the generation of a PWM signal using the alternate  
reload mechanism. T2 defines the high time of the PWM signal (reloaded on positive  
transitions) and T4 defines the low time of the PWM signal (reloaded on negative  
transitions). The PWM signal can be output on T3OUT with T3OE = ‘1’, port latch = ‘1’  
and direction bit = ‘1’. With this method the high and low time of the PWM signal can be  
varied in a wide range.  
Note: The output toggle latch T3OTL is accessible via software and may be changed, if  
required, to modify the PWM signal.  
However, this will NOT trigger the reloading of T3.

Note: Although it is possible, it should be avoided to select the same reload trigger event  
for both auxiliary timers. In this case both reload registers would try to load the  
core timer at the same time. If this combination is selected, T2 is disregarded and  
the contents of T4 is reloaded.

Auxiliary Timer in Capture Mode  
Capture mode for the auxiliary timers T2 and T4 is selected by setting bit field TxM in the  
respective register TxCON to ‘101 ’. In capture mode the contents of the core timer are  
B
latched into an auxiliary timer register in response to a signal transition at the respective  
auxiliary timer’s external input pin TxIN. The capture trigger signal can be a positive, a  
negative, or both a positive and a negative transition.  
The two least significant bits of bit field TxI are used to select the active transition (see  
Table 10-8), while the most significant bit TxI.2 is irrelevant for capture mode. It is  
recommended to keep this bit cleared (TxI.2 = ‘0’).  
Note: When programmed for capture mode, the respective auxiliary timer (T2 or T4)  
stops independent of its run flag T2R or T4R.

Timer block GPT2 supports high precision event control with a maximum resolution of  
8 TCL. It includes the two timers T5 and T6, and the 16-bit capture/reload register  
CAPREL. Timer T6 is referred to as the core timer, and T5 is referred to as the auxiliary  
timer of GPT2.  
Each timer has an alternate input function pin associated with it which serves as the gate  
control in gated timer mode, or as the count input in counter mode. The count direction  
(Up/Down) may be programmed via software. An overflow/underflow of T6 is indicated  
by the output toggle bit T6OTL whose state may be output on an alternate function port  
pin (T6OUT). In addition, T6 may be reloaded with the contents of CAPREL.  
The toggle bit also supports the concatenation of T6 with auxiliary timer T5, while  
concatenation of T6 with the timers of the CAPCOM units is provided through a direct  
connection. Triggered by an external signal, the contents of T5 can be captured into  
register CAPREL, and T5 may optionally be cleared. Both timer T6 and T5 can count up  
or down, and the current timer value can be read or modified by the CPU in the non-  
bitaddressable SFRs T5 and T6.

Timer 6 Run Bit  
The timer can be started or stopped by software through bit T6R (Timer T6 Run Bit). If  
T6R = ‘0’, the timer stops. Setting T6R to ‘1’ will start the timer.  
In gated timer mode, the timer will only run if T6R = ‘1’ and the gate is active (high or low,  
as programmed).  
Count Direction Control  
The count direction of the core timer can be controlled either by software or by the  
external input pin T6EUD (Timer T6 External Up/Down Control Input), which is the  
alternate input function of port pin P5.10. These options are selected by bits T6UD and  
T6UDE in control register T6CON. When the up/down control is done by software (bit  
T6UDE = ‘0’), the count direction can be altered by setting or clearing bit T6UD. When  
T6UDE = ‘1’, pin T6EUD is selected to be the controlling source of the count direction.  
However, bit T6UD can still be used to reverse the actual count direction, as shown in  
Table 10-9. If T6UD = ‘0’ and pin T6EUD shows a low level, the timer is counting up.  
With a high level at T6EUD the timer is counting down. If T6UD = ‘1’, a high level at pin  
T6EUD specifies counting up, and a low level specifies counting down. The count  
direction can be changed regardless of whether the timer is running or not.

Timer 6 Output Toggle Latch  
An overflow or underflow of timer T6 will clock the toggle bit T6OTL in control register  
T6CON. T6OTL can also be set or reset by software. Bit T6OE (Alternate Output  
Function Enable) in register T6CON enables the state of T6OTL to be an alternate  
function of the external output pin T6OUT. For that purpose, a ‘1’ must be written into the  
respective port data latch and pin T6OUT must be configured as output by setting the  
respective direction control bit to ‘1’. If T6OE = ‘1’, pin T6OUT then outputs the state of  
T6OTL. If T6OE = ‘0’ pin T6OUT can be used as general purpose IO pin.  
In addition, T6OTL can be used in conjunction with the timer over/underflows as an input  
for the counter function of the auxiliary timer T5. For this purpose, the state of T6OTL  
does not have to be available at pin T6OUT, because an internal connection is provided  
for this option.  
An overflow or underflow of timer T6 can also be used to clock the timers in the CAPCOM  
units. For this purpose, there is a direct internal connection between timer T6 and the  
CAPCOM timers.  
Timer 6 in Timer Mode  
Timer mode for the core timer T6 is selected by setting bitfield T6M in register T6CON  
to ‘000 ’. In this mode, T6 is clocked with the internal system clock divided by a  
B
programmable prescaler, which is selected by bit field T6I. The input frequency fT6 for  
timer T6 and its resolution rT6 are scaled linearly with lower clock frequencies fCPU, as  
can be seen from the following formula:

B
T6IN, which is an alternate function of P5.12. The event causing an increment or  
decrement of the timer can be a positive, a negative, or both a positive and a negative  
transition at this pin. Bit field T6I in control register T6CON selects the triggering  
transition (see Table 10-13).

GPT2 Auxiliary Timer T5  
The auxiliary timer T5 can be configured for timer, gated timer or counter mode with the  
same options for the timer frequencies and the count signal as the core timer T6. In  
addition the auxiliary timer can be concatenated with the core timer (operation in counter  
mode). Its contents may be captured to register CAPREL upon a selectable trigger.  
The individual configuration for timer T5 is determined by its bitaddressable control  
register T5CON. Note that functions which are present in both timers of block GPT2 are  
controlled in the same bit positions and in the same manner in each of the specific control  
registers.  
Note: The auxiliary timer has no output toggle latch and no alternate output function.

Timer Concatenation  
Using the toggle bit T6OTL as a clock source for the auxiliary timer in counter mode  
concatenates the core timer T6 with the auxiliary timer. Depending on which transition of  
T6OTL is selected to clock the auxiliary timer, this concatenation forms a 32-bit or a 33-  
bit timer/counter.  
32-bit Timer/Counter: If both a positive and a negative transition of T6OTL is used to  
clock the auxiliary timer, this timer is clocked on every overflow/underflow of the core  
timer T6. Thus, the two timers form a 32-bit timer.  
33-bit Timer/Counter: If either a positive or a negative transition of T6OTL is selected  
to clock the auxiliary timer, this timer is clocked on every second overflow/underflow  
of the core timer T6. This configuration forms a 33-bit timer (16-bit core timer + T6OTL  
+ 16-bit auxiliary timer).  
The count directions of the two concatenated timers are not required to be the same.  
This offers a wide variety of different configurations.  
T6 can operate in timer, gated timer or counter mode in this case.

GPT2 Capture/Reload Register CAPREL in Capture Mode  
This 16-bit register can be used as a capture register for the auxiliary timer T5. This  
mode is selected by setting bit T5SC = ‘1’ in control register T5CON. Bit CT3 selects the  
external input pin CAPIN or the input pins of timer T3 as the source for a capture trigger.  
Either a positive, a negative, or both a positive and a negative transition at pin CAPIN  
can be selected to trigger the capture function, or transitions on input T3IN or input  
T3EUD or both inputs T3IN and T3EUD. The active edge is controlled by bit field CI in  
register T5CON. The same coding is used as in the two least significant bits of bit field  
T5I (see Table 10-14).  
The maximum input frequency for the capture trigger signal at CAPIN is fCPU / 8. To  
ensure that a transition of the capture trigger signal is correctly recognized, its level  
should be held for at least 4 fCPU cycles before it changes.

When the timer T3 capture trigger is enabled (CT3 = ‘1’) register CAPREL captures the  
contents of T5 upon transitions of the selected input(s). These values can be used to  
measure T3’s input signals. This is useful e.g. when T3 operates in incremental interface  
mode, in order to derive dynamic information (speed acceleration) from the input signals.

When a selected transition at the selected input pin(s) (CAPIN, T3IN, T3EUD) is  
detected, the contents of the auxiliary timer T5 are latched into register CAPREL, and  
interrupt request flag CRIR is set. With the same event, timer T5 can be cleared to  
0000 . This option is controlled by bit T5CLR in register T5CON. If T5CLR = ‘0’, the  
H
contents of timer T5 are not affected by a capture. If T5CLR = ‘1’, timer T5 is cleared after  
the current timer value has been latched into register CAPREL.  
Note: Bit T5SC only controls whether a capture is performed or not. If T5SC = ‘0’, the  
selected trigger event can still be used to clear timer T5 or to generate an interrupt  
request. This interrupt is controlled by the CAPREL interrupt control register CRIC.  
GPT2 Capture/Reload Register CAPREL in Reload Mode  
This 16-bit register can be used as a reload register for the core timer T6. This mode is  
selected by setting bit T6SR = ‘1’ in register T6CON. The event causing a reload in this  
mode is an overflow or underflow of the core timer T6.  
When timer T6 overflows from FFFF to 0000 (when counting up) or when it underflows  
H

The General Purpose Timer Units  
For this purpose, the time between the external events is measured using timer T5 and  
the CAPREL register. Timer T5 runs in timer mode counting up with a frequency of e.g.  
fCPU/32. The external events are applied to pin CAPIN. When an external event occurs,  
the timer T5 contents are latched into register CAPREL, and timer T5 is cleared  
(T5CLR = ‘1’). Thus, register CAPREL always contains the correct time between two  
events, measured in timer T5 increments. Timer T6, which runs in timer mode counting  
down with a frequency of e.g. fCPU / 4, uses the value in register CAPREL to perform a  
reload on underflow. This means, the value in register CAPREL represents the time  
between two underflows of timer T6, now measured in timer T6 increments. Since timer  
T6 runs 8 times faster than timer T5, it will underflow 8 times within the time between two  
external events. Thus, the underflow signal of timer T6 generates 8 ‘ticks’. Upon each  
underflow, the interrupt request flag T6IR will be set and bit T6OTL will be toggled. The  
state of T6OTL may be output on pin T6OUT. This signal has 8 times more transitions  
than the signal which is applied to pin CAPIN.  
The underflow signal of timer T6 can furthermore be used to clock one or more of the  
timers of the CAPCOM units, which gives the user the possibility to set compare events  
based on a finer resolution than that of the external events.

The Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Interface  
The Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Interface ASC0 provides serial communication  
between the C167CR and other microcontrollers, microprocessors or external  
peripherals.  
The ASC0 supports full-duplex asynchronous communication up to 781 KBaud/  
1.03 MBaud and half-duplex synchronous communication up to 3.1/4.1 MBaud (@ 25/  
33 MHz CPU clock). In synchronous mode, data are transmitted or received  
synchronous to a shift clock which is generated by the C167CR. In asynchronous mode,  
8- or 9-bit data transfer, parity generation, and the number of stop bits can be selected.  
Parity, framing, and overrun error detection is provided to increase the reliability of data  
transfers. Transmission and reception of data is double-buffered. For multiprocessor  
communication, a mechanism to distinguish address from data bytes is included. Testing  
is supported by a loop-back option. A 13-bit baud rate generator provides the ASC0 with  
a separate serial clock signal.

the selected operating mode will actually be transmitted, i.e. bits written to positions 9

Data transmission is double-buffered, so a new character may be written to the transmit  
buffer register, before the transmission of the previous character is complete. This allows  
the transmission of characters back-to-back without gaps.  
Data reception is enabled by the Receiver Enable Bit S0REN. After reception of a  
character has been completed, the received data and, if provided by the selected  
operating mode, the received parity bit can be read from the (read-only) Receive Buffer  
register S0RBUF. Bits in the upper half of S0RBUF which are not valid in the selected  
operating mode will be read as zeros.  
Data reception is double-buffered, so that reception of a second character may already  
begin before the previously received character has been read out of the receive buffer  
register. In all modes, receive buffer overrun error detection can be selected through bit

request flag S0EIR will be set when the receive buffer register has not been read by the  
time reception of a second character is complete. The previously received character in

The Loop-Back option (selected by bit S0LB) allows the data currently being  
transmitted to be received simultaneously in the receive buffer. This may be used to test  
serial communication routines at an early stage without having to provide an external  
network. In loop-back mode the alternate input/output functions of the Port 3 pins are not

will be set along with the error interrupt request flag, if a wrong parity bit is received. The  
parity bit itself will be stored in bit S0RBUF.8.  
In wake-up mode received frames are only transferred to the receive buffer register, if  
the 9th bit (the wake-up bit) is ‘1’. If this bit is ‘0’, no receive interrupt request will be  
activated and no data will be transferred.  
This feature may be used to control communication in multi-processor system:  
When the master processor wants to transmit a block of data to one of several slaves, it  
first sends out an address byte which identifies the target slave. An address byte differs  
from a data byte in that the additional 9th bit is a ‘1’ for an address byte and a ‘0’ for a  
data byte, so no slave will be interrupted by a data ‘byte’. An address ‘byte’ will interrupt  
all slaves (operating in 8-bit data + wake-up bit mode), so each slave can examine the 8  
LSBs of the received character (the address). The addressed slave will switch to 9-bit  
data mode (e.g. by clearing bit S0M.0), which enables it to also receive the data bytes  
that will be coming (having the wake-up bit cleared). The slaves that were not being  
addressed remain in 8-bit data + wake-up bit mode, ignoring the following data bytes.

The Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Interface  
Asynchronous transmission begins at the next overflow of the divide-by-16 counter  
(see Figure 11-4), provided that S0R is set and data has been loaded into S0TBUF. The  
transmitted data frame consists of three basic elements:  
• the start bit  
• the data field (8 or 9 bits, LSB first, including a parity bit, if selected)  
• the delimiter (1 or 2 stop bits)  
Data transmission is double buffered. When the transmitter is idle, the transmit data  
loaded into S0TBUF is immediately moved to the transmit shift register thus freeing  
S0TBUF for the next data to be sent. This is indicated by the transmit buffer interrupt  
request flag S0TBIR being set. S0TBUF may now be loaded with the next data, while  
transmission of the previous one is still going on.  
The transmit interrupt request flag S0TIR will be set before the last bit of a frame is  
transmitted, i.e. before the first or the second stop bit is shifted out of the transmit shift  
register.  
The transmitter output pin TXD0 must be configured for alternate data output, i.e. the  
respective port output latch and the direction latch must be ‘1’.  
Asynchronous reception is initiated by a falling edge (1-to-0 transition) on pin RXD0,  
provided that bits S0R and S0REN are set. The receive data input pin RXD0 is sampled  
at 16 times the rate of the selected baud rate. A majority decision of the 7th, 8th and 9th  
sample determines the effective bit value. This avoids erroneous results that may be  
caused by noise.  
If the detected value is not a ‘0’ when the start bit is sampled, the receive circuit is reset  
and waits for the next 1-to-0 transition at pin RXD0. If the start bit proves valid, the  
receive circuit continues sampling and shifts the incoming data frame into the receive  
shift register.  
When the last stop bit has been received, the content of the receive shift register is  
transferred to the receive data buffer register S0RBUF. Simultaneously, the receive  
interrupt request flag S0RIR is set after the 9th sample in the last stop bit time slot (as  
programmed), regardless whether valid stop bits have been received or not. The receive  
circuit then waits for the next start bit (1-to-0 transition) at the receive data input pin.  
The receiver input pin RXD0 must be configured for input, i.e. the respective direction  
latch must be ‘0’.  
Asynchronous reception is stopped by clearing bit S0REN. A currently received frame is  
completed including the generation of the receive interrupt request and an error interrupt  
request, if appropriate. Start bits that follow this frame will not be recognized.  
Note: In wake-up mode received frames are only transferred to the receive buffer  
register, if the 9th bit (the wake-up bit) is ‘1’. If this bit is ‘0’, no receive interrupt  
request will be activated and no data will be transferred.

Synchronous Operation  
Synchronous mode supports half-duplex communication, basically for simple IO  
expansion via shift registers. Data is transmitted and received via pin RXD0, while pin  
TXD0 outputs the shift clock. These signals are alternate port functions. Synchronous  
mode is selected with S0M = ‘000 ’.

8 data bits are transmitted or received synchronous to a shift clock generated by the  
internal baud rate generator. The shift clock is only active as long as data bits are

Synchronous transmission begins within 4 state times after data has been loaded into  
S0TBUF, provided that S0R is set and S0REN = ‘0’ (half-duplex, no reception). Data  
transmission is double buffered. When the transmitter is idle, the transmit data loaded  
into S0TBUF is immediately moved to the transmit shift register thus freeing S0TBUF for  
the next data to be sent. This is indicated by the transmit buffer interrupt request flag  
S0TBIR being set. S0TBUF may now be loaded with the next data, while transmission  
of the previous one is still going on. The data bits are transmitted synchronous with the  
shift clock. After the bit time for the 8th data bit, both pins TXD0 and RXD0 will go high,  
the transmit interrupt request flag S0TIR is set, and serial data transmission stops.  
Pin TXD0 must be configured for alternate data output, i.e. the respective port output  
latch and the direction latch must be ‘1’, in order to provide the shift clock. Pin RXD0 must  
also be configured for output (output/direction latch = ‘1’) during transmission.  
Synchronous reception is initiated by setting bit S0REN = ‘1’. If bit S0R = ‘1’, the data  
applied at pin RXD0 are clocked into the receive shift register synchronous to the clock  
which is output at pin TXD0. After the 8th bit has been shifted in, the content of the  
receive shift register is transferred to the receive data buffer S0RBUF, the receive  
interrupt request flag S0RIR is set, the receiver enable bit S0REN is reset, and serial  
data reception stops.  
Pin TXD0 must be configured for alternate data output, i.e. the respective port output  
latch and the direction latch must be ‘1’, in order to provide the shift clock. Pin RXD0 must  
be configured as alternate data input, i.e. the respective direction latch must be ‘0’.  
Synchronous reception is stopped by clearing bit S0REN. A currently received byte is  
completed including the generation of the receive interrupt request and an error interrupt  
request, if appropriate. Writing to the transmit buffer register while a reception is in  
progress has no effect on reception and will not start a transmission.  
If a previously received byte has not been read out of the receive buffer register at the  
time the reception of the next byte is complete, both the error interrupt request flag  
S0EIR and the overrun error status flag S0OE will be set, provided the overrun check  
has been enabled by bit S0OEN.

Hardware Error Detection Capabilities  
To improve the safety of serial data exchange, the serial channel ASC0 provides an error  
interrupt request flag, which indicates the presence of an error, and three (selectable)  
error status flags in register S0CON, which indicate which error has been detected  
during reception. Upon completion of a reception, the error interrupt request flag S0EIR  
will be set simultaneously with the receive interrupt request flag S0RIR, if one or more of  
the following conditions are met:  
• If the framing error detection enable bit S0FEN is set and any of the expected stop bits  
is not high, the framing error flag S0FE is set, indicating that the error interrupt request  
is due to a framing error (Asynchronous mode only).  
• If the parity error detection enable bit S0PEN is set in the modes where a parity bit is  
received, and the parity check on the received data bits proves false, the parity error  
flag S0PE is set, indicating that the error interrupt request is due to a parity error  
(Asynchronous mode only).  
• If the overrun error detection enable bit S0OEN is set and the last character received  
was not read out of the receive buffer by software or PEC transfer at the time the  
reception of a new frame is complete, the overrun error flag S0OE is set indicating that  
the error interrupt request is due to an overrun error (Asynchronous and synchronous  
mode).

ASC0 Baud Rate Generation  
The serial channel ASC0 has its own dedicated 13-bit baud rate generator with 13-bit  
reload capability, allowing baud rate generation independent of the GPT timers.  
The baud rate generator is clocked with the CPU clock divided by 2 (fCPU/2). The timer  
is counting downwards and can be started or stopped through the Baud Rate Generator  
Run Bit S0R in register S0CON. Each underflow of the timer provides one clock pulse to  
the serial channel. The timer is reloaded with the value stored in its 13-bit reload register  
each time it underflows. The resulting clock is again divided according to the operating  
mode and controlled by the Baudrate Selection Bit S0BRS. If S0BRS = ‘1’, the clock  
signal is additionally divided to 2/3rd of its frequency (see formulas and table). So the  
baud rate of ASC0 is determined by the CPU clock, the reload value, the value of S0BRS  
and the operating mode (asynchronous or synchronous).  
Register S0BG is the dual-function Baud Rate Generator/Reload register. Reading  
S0BG returns the content of the timer (bits 15 … 13 return zero), while writing to S0BG  
always updates the reload register (bits 15 … 13 are insiginificant).  
An auto-reload of the timer with the content of the reload register is performed each time  
S0BG is written to. However, if S0R = ‘0’ at the time the write operation to S0BG is  
performed, the timer will not be reloaded until the first instruction cycle after S0R = ‘1’.  
Asynchronous Mode Baud Rates  
For asynchronous operation, the baud rate generator provides a clock with 16 times the  
rate of the established baud rate. Every received bit is sampled at the 7th, 8th and 9th  
cycle of this clock. The baud rate for asynchronous operation of serial channel ASC0 and  
the required reload value for a given baudrate can be determined by the following  
formulas:  
f
CPU  
B
=
Async  
16 × (2 + <S0BRS>) × (<S0BRL> + 1)  
f
CPU  
S0BRL = (  
) – 1  
16 × (2 + <S0BRS>) × B  
Async  
<S0BRL> represents the content of the reload register, taken as unsigned 13-bit integer,  
<S0BRS> represents the value of bit S0BRS (i.e. ‘0’ or ‘1’), taken as integer.  
The tables below list various commonly used baud rates together with the required  
reload values and the deviation errors compared to the intended baudrate for a number  
of CPU frequencies.  
Note: The deviation errors given in the tables below are rounded. Using a baudrate  
crystal (e.g. 18.432 MHz) will provide correct baudrates without deviation errors.

ASC0 Interrupt Control  
Four bit addressable interrupt control registers are provided for serial channel ASC0.  
Register S0TIC controls the transmit interrupt, S0TBIC controls the transmit buffer  
interrupt, S0RIC controls the receive interrupt and S0EIC controls the error interrupt of  
serial channel ASC0. Each interrupt source also has its own dedicated interrupt vector.  
S0TINT is the transmit interrupt vector, S0TBINT is the transmit buffer interrupt vector,  
S0RINT is the receive interrupt vector, and S0EINT is the error interrupt vector.  
The cause of an error interrupt request (framing, parity, overrun error) can be identified  
by the error status flags in control register S0CON.  
Note: In contrast to the error interrupt request flag S0EIR, the error status flags S0FE/  
S0PE/S0OE are not reset automatically upon entry into the error interrupt service  
routine, but must be cleared by software.

Note: Please refer to the general Interrupt Control Register description for an  
explanation of the control fields.  
Using the ASC0 Interrupts  
For normal operation (i.e. besides the error interrupt) the ASC0 provides three interrupt  
requests to control data exchange via this serial channel:  
• S0TBIR is activated when data is moved from S0TBUF to the transmit shift register.  
• S0TIR is activated before the last bit of an asynchronous frame is transmitted,  
or after the last bit of a synchronous frame has been transmitted.  
• S0RIR is activated when the received frame is moved to S0RBUF.  
While the task of the receive interrupt handler is quite clear, the transmitter is serviced  
by two interrupt handlers. This provides advantages for the servicing software.  
For single transfers is sufficient to use the transmitter interrupt (S0TIR), which indicates  
that the previously loaded data has been transmitted, except for the last bit of an  
asynchronous frame.  
For multiple back-to-back transfers it is necessary to load the following piece of data  
at last until the time the last bit of the previous frame has been transmitted. In  
asynchronous mode this leaves just one bit-time for the handler to respond to the  
transmitter interrupt request, in synchronous mode it is impossible at all.  
Using the transmit buffer interrupt (S0TBIR) to reload transmit data gives the time to  
transmit a complete frame for the service routine, as S0TBUF may be reloaded while the  
previous data is still being transmitted.

As shown in Figure 11-6, S0TBIR is an early trigger for the reload routine, while S0TIR  
indicates the completed transmission. Software using handshake therefore should rely  
on S0TIR at the end of a data block to make sure that all data has really been  
transmitted.

The High-speed Synchronous Serial Interface  
The high-speed Synchronous Serial Interface SSC provides flexible high-speed serial  
communication between the C167CR and other microcontrollers, microprocessors or  
external peripherals.  
The SSC supports full-duplex and half-duplex synchronous communication up to 6.25/  
8.25 MBaud (@ 25/33 MHz CPU clock). The serial clock signal can be generated by the  
SSC itself (master mode) or be received from an external master (slave mode). Data  
width, shift direction, clock polarity and phase are programmable. This allows  
communication with SPI-compatible devices. Transmission and reception of data is  
double-buffered. A 16-bit baud rate generator provides the SSC with a separate serial  
clock signal.  
The high-speed synchronous serial interface can be configured in a very flexible way, so  
it can be used with other synchronous serial interfaces (e.g. the ASC0 in synchronous  
mode), serve for master/slave or multimaster interconnections or operate compatible  
with the popular SPI interface. So it can be used to communicate with shift registers (IO  
expansion), peripherals (e.g. EEPROMs etc.) or other controllers (networking). The SSC  
supports half-duplex and full-duplex communication. Data is transmitted or received on  
pins MTSR/P3.9 (Master Transmit/Slave Receive) and MRST/P3.8 (Master Receive/  
Slave Transmit). The clock signal is output or input on pin SCLK/P3.13. These pins are  
alternate functions of Port 3 pins.

register SSCCON. This register serves for two purposes:  
• during programming (SSC disabled by SSCEN = ‘0’) it provides access to a set of  
control bits,  
• during operation (SSC enabled by SSCEN = ‘1’) it provides access to a set of status  
flags.

The High-speed Synchronous Serial Interface  
The shift register of the SSC is connected to both the transmit pin and the receive pin via  
the pin control logic (see block diagram). Transmission and reception of serial data is  
synchronized and takes place at the same time, i.e. the number of transmitted bits is also  
received.  
The major steps of the state machine of the SSC are controlled by the shift clock signal  
(see Figure 12-3).  
In master mode (SSCMS = ‘1’) two clocks per bit-time are generated, each upon an  
underflow of the baudrate counter.  
In slave mode (SSCMS = ‘0’) one clock per bit-time is generated, when the latching  
edge of the external SCLK signal has been detected.  
Transmit data is written into the transmit buffer SSCTB. When the contents of the buffer  
are moved to the shift register (immediately if no transfer is currently active) a transmit  
interrupt request (SSCTIR) is generated indicating that SSCTB may be reloaded again.  
The busy flag SSCBSY is set when the transfer starts (with the next following shift clock  
in master mode, immediately in slave mode).  
Note: If no data is written to SSCTB prior to a slave transfer, this transfer starts after the  
first latching edge of the external SCLK signal is detected. No transmit interrupt is  
generated in this case.  
When the contents of the shift register are moved to the receive buffer SSCRB after the  
programmed number of bits (2 … 16) have been transferred, i.e. after the last latching  
edge of the current transfer, a receive interrupt request (SSCRIR) is generated.  
The busy flag SSCBSY is cleared at the end of the current transfer (with the next  
following shift clock in master mode, immediately in slave mode).  
When the transmit buffer is not empty at that time (in the case of continuous transfers)  
the busy flag is not cleared and the transfer goes on after moving data from the buffer to  
the shift register.  
Software should not modify SSCBSY, as this flag is hardware controlled.  
Note: Only one SSC (etc.) can be master at a given time.  
The transfer of serial data bits can be programmed in many respects:  
• the data width can be chosen from 2 bits to 16 bits  
• transfer may start with the LSB or the MSB  
• the shift clock may be idle low or idle high  
• data bits may be shifted with the leading or trailing edge of the clock signal  
• the baudrate may be set within a wide range (see baudrate generation)  
• the shift clock can be generated (master) or received (slave)  
This allows the adaptation of the SSC to a wide range of applications, where serial data  
transfer is required.

The High-speed Synchronous Serial Interface  
The Data Width Selection supports the transfer of frames of any length, from 2-bit  
“characters” up to 16-bit “characters”. Starting with the LSB (SSCHB = ‘0’) allows  
communication e.g. with ASC0 devices in synchronous mode (C166 Family) or 8051 like  
serial interfaces. Starting with the MSB (SSCHB = ‘1’) allows operation compatible with  
the SPI interface.  
Regardless which data width is selected and whether the MSB or the LSB is transmitted  
first, the transfer data is always right aligned in registers SSCTB and SSCRB, with the  
LSB of the transfer data in bit 0 of these registers. The data bits are rearranged for  
transfer by the internal shift register logic. The unselected bits of SSCTB are ignored, the  
unselected bits of SSCRB will be not valid and should be ignored by the receiver service  
routine.  
The Clock Control allows the adaptation of transmit and receive behavior of the SSC to  
a variety of serial interfaces. A specific clock edge (rising or falling) is used to shift out  
transmit data, while the other clock edge is used to latch in receive data. Bit SSCPH  
selects the leading edge or the trailing edge for each function. Bit SSCPO selects the  
level of the clock line in the idle state. So for an idle-high clock the leading edge is a  
falling one, a 1-to-0 transition. Figure 12-3 is a summary.

Full-duplex Operation  
The different devices are connected through three lines. The definition of these lines is  
always determined by the master: The line connected to the master’s data output pin  
MTSR is the transmit line, the receive line is connected to its data input line MRST, and  
the clock line is connected to pin SCLK. Only the device selected for master operation  
generates and outputs the serial clock on pin SCLK. All slaves receive this clock, so their  
pin SCLK must be switched to input mode (DP3.13 = ‘0’). The output of the master’s shift  
register is connected to the external transmit line, which in turn is connected to the  
slaves’ shift register input. The output of the slaves’ shift register is connected to the  
external receive line in order to enable the master to receive the data shifted out of the  
slave. The external connections are hard-wired, the function and direction of these pins  
is determined by the master or slave operation of the individual device.  
Note: The shift direction shown in Figure 12-4 applies for MSB-first operation as well as  
for LSB-first operation.  
When initializing the devices in this configuration, select one device for master operation  
(SSCMS = ‘1’), all others must be programmed for slave operation (SSCMS = ‘0’).  
Initialization includes the operating mode of the device’s SSC and also the function of  
the respective port lines (see “Port Control”).

The High-speed Synchronous Serial Interface  
The data output pins MRST of all slave devices are connected together onto the one  
receive line in this configuration. During a transfer each slave shifts out data from its shift  
register. There are two ways to avoid collisions on the receive line due to different slave  
data:  
Only one slave drives the line, i.e. enables the driver of its MRST pin. All the other  
slaves have to program their MRST pins to input. So only one slave can put its data onto  
the master’s receive line. Only receiving of data from the master is possible. The master  
selects the slave device from which it expects data either by separate select lines, or by  
sending a special command to this slave. The selected slave then switches its MRST line  
to output, until it gets a deselection signal or command.  
The slaves use open drain output on MRST. This forms a Wired-AND connection. The  
receive line needs an external pullup in this case. Corruption of the data on the receive  
line sent by the selected slave is avoided, when all slaves which are not selected for  
transmission to the master only send ones (‘1’). Since this high level is not actively driven  
onto the line, but only held through the pullup device, the selected slave can pull this line  
actively to a low level when transmitting a zero bit. The master selects the slave device  
from which it expects data either by separate select lines, or by sending a special  
command to this slave.  
After performing all necessary initializations of the SSC, the serial interfaces can be  
enabled. For a master device, the alternate clock line will now go to its programmed  
polarity. The alternate data line will go to either ‘0’ or ‘1’, until the first transfer will start.  
When the serial interfaces are enabled, the master device can initiate the first data  
transfer by writing the transmit data into register SSCTB. This value is copied into the  
shift register (which is assumed to be empty at this time), and the selected first bit of the  
transmit data will be placed onto the MTSR line on the next clock from the baudrate  
generator (transmission only starts, if SSCEN = ‘1’). Depending on the selected clock  
phase, also a clock pulse will be generated on the SCLK line. With the opposite clock  
edge the master at the same time latches and shifts in the data detected at its input line  
MRST. This “exchanges” the transmit data with the receive data. Since the clock line is  
connected to all slaves, their shift registers will be shifted synchronously with the  
master’s shift register, shifting out the data contained in the registers, and shifting in the  
data detected at the input line. After the preprogrammed number of clock pulses (via the  
data width selection) the data transmitted by the master is contained in all slaves’ shift  
registers, while the master’s shift register holds the data of the selected slave. In the  
master and all slaves the content of the shift register is copied into the receive buffer  
SSCRB and the receive interrupt flag SSCRIR is set.  
A slave device will immediately output the selected first bit (MSB or LSB of the transfer  
data) at pin MRST, when the content of the transmit buffer is copied into the slave’s shift  
register. It will not wait for the next clock from the baudrate generator, as the master  
does. The reason for this is that, depending on the selected clock phase, the first clock  
User’s Manual

C167CR  
Derivatives  
The High-speed Synchronous Serial Interface  
edge generated by the master may be already used to clock in the first data bit. So the  
slave’s first data bit must already be valid at this time.  
Note: On the SSC always a transmission and a reception takes place at the same time,  
regardless whether valid data has been transmitted or received. This is different  
e.g. from asynchronous reception on ASC0.  
The initialization of the SCLK pin on the master requires some attention in order to  
avoid undesired clock transitions, which may disturb the other receivers. The state of the  
internal alternate output lines is ‘1’ as long as the SSC is disabled. This alternate output  
signal is ANDed with the respective port line output latch. Enabling the SSC with an idle-  
low clock (SSCPO = ‘0’) will drive the alternate data output and (via the AND) the port  
pin SCLK immediately low. To avoid this, use the following sequence:  
• select the clock idle level (SSCPO = ‘x’)  
• load the port output latch with the desired clock idle level (P3.13 = ‘x’)  
• switch the pin to output (DP3.13 = ‘1’)  
• enable the SSC (SSCEN = ‘1’)  
• if SSCPO = ‘0’: enable alternate data output (P3.13 = ‘1’)  
The same mechanism as for selecting a slave for transmission (separate select lines or  
special commands) may also be used to move the role of the master to another device  
in the network. In this case the previous master and the future master (previous slave)  
will have to toggle their operating mode (SSCMS) and the direction of their port pins (see  
description above).

Half-duplex Operation  
In a half duplex configuration only one data line is necessary for both receiving and  
transmitting of data. The data exchange line is connected to both pins MTSR and MRST  
of each device, the clock line is connected to the SCLK pin.  
The master device controls the data transfer by generating the shift clock, while the slave  
devices receive it. Due to the fact that all transmit and receive pins are connected to the  
one data exchange line, serial data may be moved between arbitrary stations.  
Similar to full duplex mode there are two ways to avoid collisions on the data  
exchange line:  
• only the transmitting device may enable its transmit pin driver  
• the non-transmitting devices use open drain output and only send ones.  
Since the data inputs and outputs are connected together, a transmitting device will clock  
in its own data at the input pin (MRST for a master device, MTSR for a slave). By these  
means any corruptions on the common data exchange line are detected, where the  
received data is not equal to the transmitted data.

Continuous Transfers  
When the transmit interrupt request flag is set, it indicates that the transmit buffer SSCTB  
is empty and ready to be loaded with the next transmit data. If SSCTB has been reloaded  
by the time the current transmission is finished, the data is immediately transferred to the  
shift register and the next transmission will start without any additional delay. On the data  
line there is no gap between the two successive frames. E.g. two byte transfers would  
look the same as one word transfer. This feature can be used to interface with devices  
which can operate with or require more than 16 data bits per transfer. It is just a matter  
of software, how long a total data frame length can be. This option can also be used e.g.  
to interface to byte-wide and word-wide devices on the same serial bus.  
Note: Of course, this can only happen in multiples of the selected basic data width, since  
it would require disabling/enabling of the SSC to reprogram the basic data width  
on-the-fly.

Port Control  
The SSC uses three pins of Port 3 to communicate with the external world. Pin P3.13/  
SCLK serves as the clock line, while pins P3.8/MRST (Master Receive/Slave Transmit)  
and P3.9/MTSR (Master Transmit/Slave Receive) serve as the serial data input/output  
lines.The operation of these pins depends on the selected operating mode (master or  
slave). In order to enable the alternate output functions of these pins instead of the  
general purpose IO operation, the respective port latches have to be set to ‘1’, since the  
port latch outputs and the alternate output lines are ANDed. When an alternate data  
output line is not used (function disabled), it is held at a high level, allowing IO operations  
via the port latch. The direction of the port lines depends on the operating mode. The  
SSC will automatically use the correct alternate input or output line of the ports when  
switching modes. The direction of the pins, however, must be programmed by the user,  
as shown in the tables. Using the open drain output feature helps to avoid bus contention  
problems and reduces the need for hardwired hand-shaking or slave select lines. In this  
case it is not always necessary to switch the direction of a port pin. Table 12-1  
summarizes the required values for the different modes and pins.

Baud Rate Generation  
The serial channel SSC has its own dedicated 16-bit baud rate generator with 16-bit  
reload capability, permitting baud rate generation independent from the timers.  
The baud rate generator is clocked with the CPU clock divided by 2 (fCPU / 2). The timer  
is counting downwards and can be started or stopped through the global enable bit  
SSCEN in register SSCCON. Register SSCBR is the dual-function Baud Rate  
Generator/Reload register. Reading SSCBR, while the SSC is enabled, returns the  
content of the timer. Reading SSCBR, while the SSC is disabled, returns the  
programmed reload value. In this mode the desired reload value can be written to  
SSCBR.  
Note: Never write to SSCBR, while the SSC is enabled.  
The formulas below calculate either the resulting baud rate for a given reload value, or  
the required reload value for a given baudrate:

integer.

and the resulting bit times, for different CPU clock frequencies.

Error Detection Mechanisms  
The SSC is able to detect four different error conditions. Receive Error and Phase Error  
are detected in all modes, while Transmit Error and Baudrate Error only apply to slave  
mode. When an error is detected, the respective error flag is set. When the  
corresponding Error Enable Bit is set, also an error interrupt request will be generated  
by setting SSCEIR (see Figure 12-6). The error interrupt handler may then check the  
error flags to determine the cause of the error interrupt. The error flags are not reset  
automatically (like SSCEIR), but rather must be cleared by software after servicing. This  
allows servicing of some error conditions via interrupt, while the others may be polled by  
software.  
Note: The error interrupt handler must clear the associated (enabled) errorflag(s) to  
prevent repeated interrupt requests.  
A Receive Error (Master or Slave mode) is detected, when a new data frame is  
completely received, but the previous data was not read out of the receive buffer register  
SSCRB. This condition sets the error flag SSCRE and, when enabled via SSCREN, the  
error interrupt request flag SSCEIR. The old data in the receive buffer SSCRB will be  
overwritten with the new value and is unretrievably lost.  
A Phase Error (Master or Slave mode) is detected, when the incoming data at pin MRST  
(master mode) or MTSR (slave mode), sampled with the same frequency as the CPU  
clock, changes between one sample before and two samples after the latching edge of  
the clock signal (see “Clock Control”). This condition sets the error flag SSCPE and,  
when enabled via SSCPEN, the error interrupt request flag SSCEIR.  
A Baud Rate Error (Slave mode) is detected, when the incoming clock signal deviates  
from the programmed baud rate by more than 100%, i.e. it either is more than double or  
less than half the expected baud rate. This condition sets the error flag SSCBE and,  
when enabled via SSCBEN, the error interrupt request flag SSCEIR. Using this error  
detection capability requires that the slave’s baud rate generator is programmed to the  
same baud rate as the master device. This feature detects false additional, or missing  
pulses on the clock line (within a certain frame).  
Note: If this error condition occurs and bit SSCAREN = ‘1’, an automatic reset of the SSC  
will be performed in case of this error. This is done to reinitialize the SSC, if too  
few or too many clock pulses have been detected.  
User’s Manual  
12-15  
V3.1, 2000-03  
C167CR  
Derivatives  
The High-speed Synchronous Serial Interface  
A Transmit Error (Slave mode) is detected, when a transfer was initiated by the master  
(shift clock gets active), but the transmit buffer SSCTB of the slave was not updated  
since the last transfer. This condition sets the error flag SSCTE and, when enabled via  
SSCTEN, the error interrupt request flag SSCEIR. If a transfer starts while the transmit  
buffer is not updated, the slave will shift out the ‘old’ contents of the shift register, which  
normally is the data received during the last transfer.  
This may lead to the corruption of the data on the transmit/receive line in half-duplex  
mode (open drain configuration), if this slave is not selected for transmission. This mode  
requires that slaves not selected for transmission only shift out ones, i.e. their transmit  
buffers must be loaded with ‘FFFF ’ prior to any transfer.  
H
Note: A slave with push/pull output drivers, which is not selected for transmission, will  
normally have its output drivers switched. However, in order to avoid possible  
conflicts or misinterpretations, it is recommended to always load the slave’s  
transmit buffer prior to any transfer.

SSC Interrupt Control  
Three bit addressable interrupt control registers are provided for serial channel SSC.  
Register SSCTIC controls the transmit interrupt, SSCRIC controls the receive interrupt  
and SSCEIC controls the error interrupt of serial channel SSC. Each interrupt source  
also has its own dedicated interrupt vector. SCTINT is the transmit interrupt vector,  
SCRINT is the receive interrupt vector, and SCEINT is the error interrupt vector.  
The cause of an error interrupt request (receive, phase, baudrate, transmit error) can be  
identified by the error status flags in control register SSCCON.  
Note: In contrary to the error interrupt request flag SSCEIR, the error status flags SSCxE  
are not reset automatically upon entry into the error interrupt service routine, but  
must be cleared by software.

The Watchdog Timer (WDT)  
13  
The Watchdog Timer (WDT)  
To allow recovery from software or hardware failure, the C167CR provides a Watchdog  
Timer. If the software fails to service this timer before an overflow occurs, an internal  
reset sequence will be initiated. This internal reset will also pull the RSTOUT pin low,  
which also resets the peripheral hardware which might be the cause for the malfunction.  
When the watchdog timer is enabled and the software has been designed to service it  
regularly before it overflows, the watchdog timer will supervise the program execution as  
it only will overflow if the program does not progress properly. The watchdog timer will  
also time out if a software error was due to hardware related failures. This prevents the  
controller from malfunctioning for longer than a user-specified time.  
Note: When the bidirectional reset is enabled also pin RSTIN will be pulled low for the  
duration of the internal reset sequence upon a software reset or a watchdog timer  
reset.  
The watchdog timer provides two registers:  
• a read-only timer register that contains the current count, and  
• a control register for initialization and reset source detection.

The watchdog timer is a 16-bit up counter which is clocked with the prescaled CPU clock  
(fCPU). The prescaler divides the CPU clock:  
• by 2 (WDTIN = ‘0’), or  
• by 128 (WDTIN = ‘1’).

The Watchdog Timer (WDT)  
13.1  
Operation of the Watchdog Timer  
The current count value of the Watchdog Timer is contained in the Watchdog Timer  
Register WDT which is a non-bitaddressable read-only register. The operation of the  
Watchdog Timer is controlled by its bitaddressable Watchdog Timer Control Register  
WDTCON. This register specifies the reload value for the high byte of the timer, selects  
the input clock prescaling factor and also provides flags that indicate the source of a  
reset.  
After any reset (except see note) the watchdog timer is enabled and starts counting up  
from 0000 with the default frequency fWDT = fCPU / 2. The default input frequency may  
H
be changed to another frequency (fWDT = fCPU / 128) by programming the prescaler (bit  
WDTIN).  
The watchdog timer can be disabled by executing the instruction DISWDT (Disable  
Watchdog Timer). Instruction DISWDT is a protected 32-bit instruction which will ONLY  
be executed during the time between a reset and execution of either the EINIT (End of  
Initialization) or the SRVWDT (Service Watchdog Timer) instruction. Either one of these  
instructions disables the execution of DISWDT.  
Note: After a hardware reset that activates the Bootstrap Loader the watchdog timer will  
be disabled. The software reset that terminates the BSL mode will then enable the  
WDT.  
When the watchdog timer is not disabled via instruction DISWDT it will continue counting  
up, even during Idle Mode. If it is not serviced via the instruction SRVWDT by the time  
the count reaches FFFF the watchdog timer will overflow and cause an internal reset.  
H
This reset will pull the external reset indication pin RSTOUT low. The Watchdog Timer  
Reset Indication Flag (WDTR) in register WDTCON will be set in this case.  
In bidirectional reset mode also pin RSTIN will be pulled low for the duration of the  
internal reset sequence and a long hardware reset will be indicated instead.  
A watchdog reset will also complete a running external bus cycle before starting the  
internal reset sequence if this bus cycle does not use READY or samples READY active  
(low) after the programmed waitstates. Otherwise the external bus cycle will be aborted.  
To prevent the watchdog timer from overflowing it must be serviced periodically by the  
user software. The watchdog timer is serviced with the instruction SRVWDT which is a  
protected 32-bit instruction. Servicing the watchdog timer clears the low byte and reloads  
the high byte of the watchdog timer register WDT with the preset value from bitfield  
WDTREL which is the high byte of register WDTCON. Servicing the watchdog timer will  
also reset bit WDTR. After being serviced the watchdog timer continues counting up from  
8
the value (<WDTREL> × 2 ).

Reset Source Indication  
The reset indication flags in register WDTCON provide information on the source for the  
last reset. As the C167CR starts executing from location 00’0000 after any possible  
H
reset event the initialization software may check these flags in order to determine if the  
recent reset event was triggered by an external hardware signal (via RSTIN), by software  
itself or by an overflow of the watchdog timer. The initialization (and also the further  
operation) of the microcontroller system can thus be adapted to the respective  
circumstances, e.g. a special routine may verify the software integrity after a watchdog  
timer reset.  
The reset indication flags are not mutually exclusive, i.e. more than one flag may be set  
after reset depending on its source. Table 13-2 summarizes the possible combinations:

Long Hardware Reset is indicated when the RSTIN input is still sampled low (active) at  
the end of a hardware triggered internal reset sequence.  
Short Hardware Reset is indicated when the RSTIN input is sampled high (inactive) at  
the end of a hardware triggered internal reset sequence.  
Software Reset is indicated after a reset triggered by the excution of instruction SRST.  
Watchdog Timer Reset is indicated after a reset triggered by an overflow of the  
watchdog timer.  
Note: When bidirectional reset is enabled the RSTIN pin is pulled low for the duration of  
the internal reset sequence upon any sort of reset.  
Therefore always a long hardware reset (LHWR) will be recognized in any case.

location 00’0000 .  
H
The bootstrap loader moves code/data into the internal RAM, but it is also possible to  
transfer data via the serial interface into an external RAM using a second level loader  
routine. ROM memory (internal or external) is not necessary. However, it may be used  
to provide lookup tables or may provide “core-code”, i.e. a set of general purpose  
subroutines, e.g. for IO operations, number crunching, system initialization, etc.

The Bootstrap Loader may be used to load the complete application software into  
ROMless systems, it may load temporary software into complete systems for testing or  
calibration, it may also be used to load a programming routine for Flash devices.  
The BSL mechanism may be used for standard system startup as well as only for special  
occasions like system maintenance (firmware update) or end-of-line programming or testing.

The Bootstrap Loader  
Entering the Bootstrap Loader  
The C167CR enters BSL mode if pin P0L.4 is sampled low at the end of a hardware  
reset. In this case the built-in bootstrap loader is activated independent of the selected  
bus mode. The bootstrap loader code is stored in a special Boot-ROM, no part of the  
standard mask ROM, OTP or Flash memory area is required for this.  
1)  
After entering BSL mode and the respective initialization the C167CR scans the RXD0  
line to receive a zero byte, i.e. one start bit, eight ‘0’ data bits and one stop bit. From the  
duration of this zero byte it calculates the corresponding baudrate factor with respect to  
the current CPU clock, initializes the serial interface ASC0 accordingly and switches pin  
TxD0 to output. Using this baudrate, an identification byte is returned to the host that  
provides the loaded data.  
This identification byte identifies the device to be booted. The following codes are  
defined:

8xC166.

Note: The identification byte D5 does not directly identify a specific derivative. This

Other than after a normal reset the watchdog timer is disabled, so the bootstrap loading  
sequence is not time limited. Pin TXD0 is configured as output, so the C167CR can  
return the identification byte.  
Note: Even if the internal ROM/OTP/Flash is enabled, no code can be executed out of it.  
The hardware that activates the BSL during reset may be a simple pull-down resistor on  
P0L.4 for systems that use this feature upon every hardware reset. You may want to use  
a switchable solution (via jumper or an external signal) for systems that only temporarily  
use the bootstrap loader.  
1)  
The external host should not send the zero byte before the end of the BSL initialization time (see Figure 14-1)  
to make sure that it is correctly received.

Memory Configuration after Reset  
The configuration (i.e. the accessibility) of the C167CR’s memory areas after reset in  
Bootstrap-loader mode differs from the standard case. Pin EA is not evaluated when  
BSL mode is selected, and accesses to the internal code memory are partly redirected,  
while the C167CR is in BSL mode (see Table 14-1). All code fetches are made from the  
special Boot-ROM, while data accesses read from the internal code memory. Data  
accesses will return undefined values on ROMless devices.  
Note: The code in the Boot-ROM is not an invariant feature of the C167CR. User  
software should not try to execute code from the internal ROM area while the BSL  
mode is still active, as these fetches will be redirected to the Boot-ROM.  
The Boot-ROM will also “move” to segment 1, when the internal ROM area is  
mapped to segment 1.

Loading the Startup Code  
After sending the identification byte the BSL enters a loop to receive 32 Bytes via ASC0.  
These bytes are stored sequentially into locations 00’FA40 through 00’FA5F of the  
H
H
internal RAM. So up to 16 instructions may be placed into the RAM area. To execute the  
loaded code the BSL then jumps to location 00’FA40 , i.e. the first loaded instruction.  
H
The bootstrap loading sequence is now terminated, the C167CR remains in BSL mode,  
however. Most probably the initially loaded routine will load additional code or data, as  
an average application is likely to require substantially more than 16 instructions. This  
second receive loop may directly use the pre-initialized interface ASC0 to receive data  
and store it to arbitrary user-defined locations.  
This second level of loaded code may be the final application code. It may also be  
another, more sophisticated, loader routine that adds a transmission protocol to enhance  
the integrity of the loaded code or data. It may also contain a code sequence to change  
the system configuration and enable the bus interface to store the received data into  
external memory.  
This process may go through several iterations or may directly execute the final  
application. In all cases the C167CR will still run in BSL mode, i.e. with the watchdog  
timer disabled and limited access to the internal code memory. All code fetches from the  
internal ROM area (00’0000 … 00’7FFF or 01’0000 … 01’7FFF , if mapped to

segment 1) are redirected to the special Boot-ROM. Data fetches access will access the  
internal code memory of the C167CR, if any is available, but will return undefined data  
on ROMless devices.  
Exiting Bootstrap Loader Mode  
In order to execute a program in normal mode, the BSL mode must be terminated first.  
The C167CR exits BSL mode upon a software reset (ignores the level on P0L.4) or a  
hardware reset (P0L.4 must be high then!). After a reset the C167CR will start executing  
from location 00’0000 of the internal ROM or the external memory, as programmed via  
H
pin EA.

Choosing the Baudrate for the BSL  
The calculation of the serial baudrate for ASC0 from the length of the first zero byte that  
is received, allows the operation of the bootstrap loader of the C167CR with a wide range  
of baudrates. However, the upper and lower limits have to be kept, in order to insure  
proper data transfer.

B
= ---------------------------------------------  
C167CR  
The C167CR uses timer T6 to measure the length of the initial zero byte. The  
quantization uncertainty of this measurement implies the first deviation from the real  
baudrate, the next deviation is implied by the computation of the S0BRL reload value  
from the timer contents. The formula below shows the association:

For a correct data transfer from the host to the C167CR the maximum deviation between  
the internal initialized baudrate for ASC0 and the real baudrate of the host should be  
below 2.5%. The deviation (F , in percent) between host baudrate and C167CR  
B
baudrate can be calculated via the formula below:

Note: Function (F ) does not consider the tolerances of oscillators and other devices  
B
supporting the serial communication.  
This baudrate deviation is a nonlinear function depending on the CPU clock and the  
baudrate of the host. The maxima of the function (F ) increase with the host baudrate  
B
due to the smaller baudrate prescaler factors and the implied higher quantization error  
(see Figure 14-3).

Figure 14-3 Baudrate Deviation between Host and C167CR  
The minimum baudrate (B in Figure 14-3) is determined by the maximum count  
Low  
capacity of timer T6, when measuring the zero byte, i.e. it depends on the CPU clock.  
16  
The minimum baudrate is obtained by using the maximum T6 count 2 in the baudrate  
formula. Baudrates below B  
would cause T6 to overflow. In this case ASC0 cannot  
Low  
be initialized properly and the communication with the external host is likely to fail.  
The maximum baudrate (B in Figure 14-3) is the highest baudrate where the  
High  
deviation still does not exceed the limit, i.e. all baudrates between B  
and B  
are  
Low  
High  
below the deviation limit. B  
marks the baudrate up to which communication with the  
High  
external host will work properly without additional tests or investigations.  
Higher baudrates, however, may be used as long as the actual deviation does not  
exceed the indicated limit. A certain baudrate (marked I) in Figure 14-3) may e.g. violate  
the deviation limit, while an even higher baudrate (marked II) in Figure 14-3) stays very  
well below it. Any baudrate can be used for the bootstrap loader provided that the  
following three prerequisites are fulfilled:  
• the baudrate is within the specified operating range for the ASC0  
• the external host is able to use this baudrate  
• the computed deviation error is below the limit.

The Capture/Compare Units  
The C167CR provides two almost identical Capture/Compare (CAPCOM) units which  
only differ in the way they are connected to the C167CR’s IO pins. They provide  
32 channels which interact with 4 timers. The CAPCOM units can capture the contents  
of a timer on specific internal or external events, or they can compare a timer’s content  
with given values and modify output signals in case of a match. With this mechanism  
they support generation and control of timing sequences on up to 16 channels per unit  
with a minimum of software intervention.

The Capture/Compare Units  
From the programmer’s point of view, the term ‘CAPCOM unit’ refers to a set of SFRs  
which are associated with this peripheral, including the port pins which may be used for  
alternate input/output functions including their direction control bits.  
A CAPCOM unit is typically used to handle high speed IO tasks such as pulse and  
waveform generation, pulse width modulation, or recording of the time at which specific  
events occur. It also allows the implementation of up to 16 software timers. The  
maximum resolution of the CAPCOM units is 8 CPU clock cycles (=16 TCL).  
Each CAPCOM unit consists of two 16-bit timers (T0/T1 in CAPCOM1, T7/T8 in  
CAPCOM2), each with its own reload register (TxREL), and a bank of sixteen dual  
purpose 16-bit capture/compare registers (CC0 through CC15 in CAPCOM1, CC16  
through CC31 in CAPCOM2).  
The input clock for the CAPCOM timers is programmable to several prescaled values of  
the CPU clock, or it can be derived from an overflow/underflow of timer T6 in block GPT2.  
T0 and T7 may also operate in counter mode (from an external input) where they can be  
clocked by external events.  
Each capture/compare register may be programmed individually for capture or compare  
function, and each register may be allocated to either timer of the associated unit. All  
capture/compare registers of each module have one port pin associated with it,  
respectively, which serves as an input pin for the capture function or as an output pin for  
the compare function. The capture function causes the current timer contents to be  
latched into the respective capture/compare register triggered by an event (transition) on  
its associated port pin. The compare function may cause an output signal transition on  
that port pin whose associated capture/compare register matches the current timer  
contents. Specific interrupt requests are generated upon each capture/compare event or  
upon timer overflow.  
Figure 15-2 shows the basic structure of the two CAPCOM units.

The timer run flags T0R, T1R, T7R, and T8R allow for enabling and disabling the timers.  
The following description of the timer modes and operation always applies to the enabled  
state of the timers, i.e. the respective run flag is assumed to be set to ‘1’.  
In all modes, the timers are always counting upward. The current timer values are  
accessible for the CPU in the timer registers Tx, which are non-bitaddressable SFRs.  
When the CPU writes to a register Tx in the state immediately before the respective timer  
increment or reload is to be performed, the CPU write operation has priority and the  
increment or reload is disabled to guarantee correct timer operation.  
Timer Mode  
The bits TxM in SFRs T01CON and T78CON select between timer or counter mode for  
the respective timer. In timer mode (TxM = ‘0’), the input clock for a timer is derived from  
the internal CPU clock divided by a programmable prescaler. The different options for  
the prescaler are selected separately for each timer by the bit fields TxI.  
The input frequencies fTx for Tx are determined as a function of the CPU clock as follows,  
where <TxI> represents the contents of the bit field TxI:  
fCPU  
(<TxI> + 3)  
fTx  
=
2
When a timer overflows from FFFF to 0000 it is reloaded with the value stored in its  
H
H
respective reload register TxREL. The reload value determines the period P between  
Tx  
two consecutive overflows of Tx as follows:  
16  
(<TxI> + 3)  
(2 – <TxREL>) × 2  
P =  
Tx  
f
CPU  
After a timer has been started by setting its run flag (TxR) to ‘1’, the first increment will  
occur within the time interval which is defined by the selected timer resolution. All further  
increments occur exactly after the time defined by the timer resolution.  
When both timers of a CAPCOM unit are to be incremented or reloaded at the same time  
T0 is always serviced one CPU clock before T1, T7 before T8, respectively.

Counter Mode  
The bits TxM in SFRs T01CON and T78CON select between timer or counter mode for  
the respective timer. In Counter mode (TxM = ‘1’) the input clock for a timer can be  
derived from the overflows/underflows of timer T6 in block GPT2. In addition, timers T0  
and T7 can be clocked by external events. Either a positive, a negative, or both a positive  
and a negative transition at pin T0IN or T7IN (alternate port input function), respectively,  
can be selected to cause an increment of T0/T7.  
When T1 or T8 is programmed to run in counter mode, bit field TxI is used to enable the  
overflows/underflows of timer T6 as the count source. This is the only option for these  
timers and it is selected by the combination TxI = 000 . When bit field TxI is programmed  
B
to any other valid combination, the respective timer will stop.  
When T0 or T7 is programmed to run in counter mode, bit field TxI is used to select the  
count source and transition (if the source is the input pin) which should cause a count  
trigger (see description of TxyCON for the possible selections).  
Note: In order to use pin T0IN or T7IN as external count input pin, the respective port pin  
must be configured as input, i.e. the corresponding direction control bit must be  
cleared (DPx.y = ‘0’).  
If the respective port pin is configured as output, the associated timer may be  
clocked by modifying the port output latches Px.y via software, e.g. for testing  
purposes.  
The maximum external input frequency to T0 or T7 in counter mode is fCPU/16. To  
ensure that a signal transition is properly recognized at the timer input, an external count  
input signal should be held for at least 8 CPU clock cycles before it changes its level  
again. The incremented count value appears in SFR T0/T7 within 8 CPU clock cycles  
after the signal transition at pin TxIN.  
Reload  
A reload of a timer with the 16-bit value stored in its associated reload register in both  
modes is performed each time a timer would overflow from FFFF to 0000 . In this case  
H
H
the timer does not wrap around to 0000 , but rather is reloaded with the contents of the  
H
respective reload register TxREL. The timer then resumes incrementing starting from the  
reloaded value.  
The reload registers TxREL are not bitaddressable.

CAPCOM Unit Timer Interrupts  
Upon a timer overflow the corresponding timer interrupt request flag TxIR for the  
respective timer will be set. This flag can be used to generate an interrupt or trigger a  
PEC service request, when enabled by the respective interrupt enable bit TxIE.  
Each timer has its own bitaddressable interrupt control register (TxIC) and its own  
interrupt vector (TxINT). The organization of the interrupt control registers TxIC is  
identical with the other interrupt control registers.

The 16-bit capture/compare registers CC0 through CC31 are used as data registers for  
capture or compare operations with respect to timers T0/T1 and T7/T8. The capture/  
compare registers are not bitaddressable.  
The functions of the 32 capture/compare registers are controlled by 8 bitaddressable  
16-bit mode control registers named CCM0 … CCM7 which are organized identically (see  
description below). Each register contains bits for mode selection and timer allocation of  
four capture/compare registers.

Each of the registers CCx may be individually programmed for capture mode or one of  
4 different compare modes (no output signal for CC24 … CC27), and may be allocated  
individually to one of the two timers of the respective CAPCOM unit (T0 or T1, and T7 or  
T8, respectively). A special combination of compare modes additionally allows the  
implementation of a ‘double-register’ compare mode. When capture or compare  
operation is disabled for one of the CCx registers, it may be used for general purpose  
variable storage.

A capture or compare event on channel 31 may be used to trigger a channel  
injection on the C167CR’s A/D converter if enabled.

Capture Mode  
In response to an external event the content of the associated timer (T0/T1 or T7/T8,  
depending on the used CAPCOM unit and the state of the allocation control bit ACCx) is  
latched into the respective capture register CCx. The external event causing a capture  
can be programmed to be either a positive, a negative, or both a positive or a negative  
transition at the respective external input pin CCxIO.  
The triggering transition is selected by the mode bits CCMODx in the respective  
CAPCOM mode control register. In any case, the event causing a capture will also set  
the respective interrupt request flag CCxIR, which can cause an interrupt or a PEC  
service request, when enabled.

In order to use the respective port pin as external capture input pin CCxIO for capture  
register CCx, this port pin must be configured as input, i.e. the corresponding direction  
control bit must be set to ‘0’. To ensure that a signal transition is properly recognized, an  
external capture input signal should be held for at least 8 CPU clock cycles before it  
changes its level.  
During these 8 CPU clock cycles the capture input signals are scanned sequentially.  
When a timer is modified or incremented during this process, the new timer contents will  
already be captured for the remaining capture registers within the current scanning  
sequence.  
Note: When the timer modification can generate an overflow the capture interrupt routine  
should check if the timer overflow was serviced during these 8 CPU clock cycles.  
If pin CCxIO is configured as output, the capture function may be triggered by modifying  
the corresponding port output latch via software, e.g. for testing purposes.

Compare Modes  
The compare modes allow triggering of events (interrupts and/or output signal  
transitions) with minimum software overhead. In all compare modes, the 16-bit value  
stored in compare register CCx (in the following also referred to as ‘compare value’) is  
continuously compared with the contents of the allocated timer (T0/T1 or T7/T8). If the  
current timer contents match the compare value, an appropriate output signal, which is  
based on the selected compare mode, can be generated at the corresponding output pin  
CCxIO (except for CC27IO … CC24IO) and the associated interrupt request flag CCxIR  
is set, which can generate an interrupt request (if enabled).  
As for capture mode, the compare registers are also processed sequentially during  
compare mode. When any two compare registers are programmed to the same compare  
value, their corresponding interrupt request flags will be set to ‘1’ and the selected output  
signals will be generated within 8 CPU clock cycles after the allocated timer is  
incremented to the compare value. Further compare events on the same compare value  
are disabled until the timer is incremented again or written to by software. After a reset,  
compare events for register CCx will only become enabled, if the allocated timer has  
been incremented or written to by software and one of the compare modes described in  
the following has been selected for this register.  
The different compare modes which can be programmed for a given compare register  
CCx are selected by the mode control field CCMODx in the associated capture/compare  
mode control register. In the following, each of the compare modes, including the special  
‘double-register’ mode, is discussed in detail.  
Compare Mode 0  
This is an interrupt-only mode which can be used for software timing purposes. Compare  
mode 0 is selected for a given compare register CCx by setting bit field CCMODx of the  
corresponding mode control register to ‘100 ’.  
B
In this mode, the interrupt request flag CCxIR is set each time a match is detected  
between the content of compare register CCx and the allocated timer. Several of these  
compare events are possible within a single timer period, when the compare value in  
register CCx is updated during the timer period. The corresponding port pin CCxIO is not  
affected by compare events in this mode and can be used as general purpose IO pin.  
If compare mode 0 is programmed for one of the registers CC8 … CC15 or  
CC24 … CC31, the double-register compare mode becomes enabled for this register if  
the corresponding bank 1 register is programmed to compare mode 1 (see “Double-  
register Compare Mode” on Page 15-19).

Compare Mode 1  
Compare mode 1 is selected for register CCx by setting bit field CCMODx of the  
corresponding mode control register to ‘101 ’.  
B
When a match between the content of the allocated timer and the compare value in  
register CCx is detected in this mode, interrupt request flag CCxIR is set to ‘1’, and in  
addition the corresponding output pin CCxIO (alternate port output function) is toggled.  
For this purpose, the state of the respective port output latch (not the pin) is read,  
inverted, and then written back to the output latch.  
Compare mode 1 allows several compare events within a single timer period. An  
overflow of the allocated timer has no effect on the output pin, nor does it disable or  
enable further compare events.  
In order to use the respective port pin as compare signal output pin CCxIO for compare  
register CCx in compare mode 1, this port pin must be configured as output, i.e. the  
corresponding direction control bit must be set to ‘1’. With this configuration, the initial  
state of the output signal can be programmed or its state can be modified at any time by  
writing to the port output latch.  
In compare mode 1 the port latch is toggled upon each compare event (see Timing  
Example above).  
If compare mode 1 is programmed for one of the registers CC0 … CC7 or CC16 … CC23  
the double-register compare mode becomes enabled for this register if the  
corresponding bank 2 register is programmed to compare mode 0 (see “Double-  
register Compare Mode” on Page 15-19).  
Note: If the port output latch is written to by software at the same time it would be altered  
by a compare event, the software write will have priority. In this case the hardware-  
triggered change will not become effective.  
On channels 27 24 compare mode 1 will generate an interrupt request but no  
output function is provided.  
Compare Mode 2  
Compare mode 2 is an interrupt-only mode similar to compare mode 0, but only one  
interrupt request per timer period will be generated. Compare mode 2 is selected for  
register CCx by setting bit field CCMODx of the corresponding mode control register to  
‘110 ’.  
B
When a match is detected in compare mode 2 for the first time within a timer period, the  
interrupt request flag CCxIR is set to ‘1’. The corresponding port pin is not affected and  
can be used for general purpose IO. However, after the first match has been detected in  
this mode, all further compare events within the same timer period are disabled for  
compare register CCx until the allocated timer overflows. This means, that after the first  
match, even when the compare register is reloaded with a value higher than the current  
timer value, no compare event will occur until the next timer period.

Compare Mode 3  
Compare mode 3 is selected for register CCx by setting bit field CCMODx of the  
corresponding mode control register to ‘111 ’. In compare mode 3 only one compare  
B
event will be generated per timer period.  
When the first match within the timer period is detected the interrupt request flag CCxIR  
is set to ‘1’ and also the output pin CCxIO (alternate port function) will be set to ‘1’. The  
pin will be reset to ‘0’, when the allocated timer overflows.  
If a match was found for register CCx in this mode, all further compare events during the  
current timer period are disabled for CCx until the corresponding timer overflows. If, after  
a match was detected, the compare register is reloaded with a new value, this value will  
not become effective until the next timer period.  
In order to use the respective port pin as compare signal output pin CCxIO for compare  
register CCx in compare mode 3 this port pin must be configured as output, i.e. the  
corresponding direction control bit must be set to ‘1’. With this configuration, the initial  
state of the output signal can be programmed or its state can be modified at any time by  
writing to the port output latch.  
In compare mode 3 the port latch is set upon a compare event and cleared upon a timer  
overflow (see Timing Example above).  
However, when compare value and reload value for a channel are equal the respective  
interrupt requests will be generated, only the output signal is not changed (set and clear  
would coincide in this case).  
Note: If the port output latch is written to by software at the same time it would be altered  
by a compare event, the software write will have priority. In this case the hardware-  
triggered change will not become effective.  
On channels 27 24 compare mode 3 will generate an interrupt request but no  
output function is provided.

Double-register Compare Mode  
In double-register compare mode two compare registers work together to control one  
output pin. This mode is selected by a special combination of modes for these two  
registers.  
For double-register mode the 16 capture/compare registers of each CAPCOM unit are  
regarded as two banks of 8 registers each. Registers CC0 … CC7 and CC16 … CC23  
form bank 1 while registers CC8 … CC15 and CC24 … CC31 form bank 2 (respectively).  
For double-register mode a bank 1 register and a bank 2 register form a register pair.  
Both registers of this register pair operate on the pin associated with the bank 1 register  
(pins CC0IO … CC7IO and CC16IO … CC23IO).  
The relationship between the bank 1 and bank 2 register of a pair and the effected output  
pins for double-register compare mode is listed in Table 15-6.

The double-register compare mode can be programmed individually for each register  
pair. In order to enable double-register mode the respective bank 1 register (see  
Table 15-6) must be programmed to compare mode 1 and the corresponding bank 2  
register (see Table 15-6) must be programmed to compare mode 0.  
If the respective bank 1 compare register is disabled or programmed for a mode other  
than mode 1 the corresponding bank 2 register will operate in compare mode 0  
(interrupt-only mode).  
In the following, a bank 2 register (programmed to compare mode 0) will be referred to  
as CCz while the corresponding bank 1 register (programmed to compare mode 1) will  
be referred to as CCx.

When a match is detected for one of the two registers in a register pair (CCx or CCz) the  
associated interrupt request flag (CCxIR or CCzIR) is set to ‘1’ and pin CCxIO  
corresponding to bank 1 register CCx is toggled. The generated interrupt always  
corresponds to the register that caused the match.  
Note: If a match occurs simultaneously for both register CCx and register CCz of the  
register pair pin CCxIO will be toggled only once but two separate compare  
interrupt requests will be generated, one for vector CCxINT and one for vector  
CCzINT.  
In order to use the respective port pin as compare signal output pin CCxIO for compare  
register CCx in double-register compare mode, this port pin must be configured as  
output, i.e. the corresponding direction control bit must be set to ‘1’. With this  
configuration, the output pin has the same characteristics as in compare mode 1.

Capture/Compare Interrupts  
Upon a capture or compare event, the interrupt request flag CCxIR for the respective  
capture/compare register CCx is set to ‘1’. This flag can be used to generate an interrupt  
or trigger a PEC service request when enabled by the interrupt enable bit CCxIE.  
Capture interrupts can be regarded as external interrupt requests with the additional  
feature of recording the time at which the triggering event occurred (see also  
Section 5.7).  
Each of the 32 capture/compare registers has its own bitaddressable interrupt control  
register (CC0IC … CC31IC) and its own interrupt vector (CC0INT … CC31INT). These  
registers are organized the same way as all other interrupt control registers. The basic  
register layout is shown below, Table 15-7 lists the associated addresses.

The Pulse Width Modulation Module  
The Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Module of the C167CR allows the generation of up  
to 4 independent PWM signals. These PWM signals can be generated within a wide  
range of output frequencies, which depends on:  
• the CPU clock frequency fCPU  
• the selected counter resolution (fCPU / 1 or fCPU / 64)  
• the operating mode (edge/center aligned)  
• the required PWM resolution (1-bit … 16-bit)  
The maximum PWM output frequency in a real application is primarily determined by the  
PWM resolution which is required for that application.

The Pulse Width Modulation Module consists of 4 independent PWM channels. Each  
channel has a 16-bit up/down counter PTx, a 16-bit period register PPx with a shadow  
latch, a 16-bit pulse width register PWx with a shadow latch, two comparators, and the  
necessary control logic.  
The operation of all four channels is controlled by two common control registers,  
PWMCON0 and PWMCON1, and the interrupt control and status is handled by one  
interrupt control register PWMIC, which is also common for all channels.

Operating Modes  
The PWM module provides four different operating modes:  
Standard PWM generation (edge aligned PWM) available on all four channels  
Symmetrical PWM generation (center aligned PWM) available on all four channels  
Burst mode combines channels 0 and 1  
Single shot mode available on channels 2 and 3  
Note: The output signals of the PWM module are XORed with the outputs of the  
respective port output latches. After reset these latches are cleared, so the PWM  
signals are directly driven to the port pins. By setting the respective port output  
latch to ‘1’ the PWM signal may be inverted (XORed with ‘1’) before being driven  
to the port pin. The descriptions below refer to the standard case after reset, i.e.  
direct driving.

Mode 0: Standard PWM Generation (Edge Aligned PWM)  
Mode 0 is selected by clearing the respective bit PMx in register PWMCON1 to ‘0’. In this  
mode the timer PTx of the respective PWM channel is always counting up until it reaches  
the value in the associated period shadow register. Upon the next count pulse the timer  
is reset to 0000 and continues counting up with subsequent count pulses. The PWM  
H
output signal is switched to high level when the timer contents are equal to or greater  
than the contents of the pulse width shadow register. The signal is switched back to low  
level when the respective timer is reset to 0000 , i.e. below the pulse width shadow  
H
register. The period of the resulting PWM signal is determined by the value of the  
respective PPx shadow register plus 1, counted in units of the timer resolution.  
PWM_Period  
= [PPx] + 1  
Mode0  
The duty cycle of the PWM output signal is controlled by the value in the respective pulse  
width shadow register. This mechanism allows the selection of duty cycles from 0% to  
100% including the boundaries. For a value of 0000 the output will remain at a high  
H
level, representing a duty cycle of 100%. For a value higher than the value in the period  
register the output will remain at a low level, which corresponds to a duty cycle of 0%.  
Figure 16-3 illustrates the operation and output waveforms of a PWM channel in mode  
0 for different values in the pulse width register. This mode is referred to as Edge Aligned  
PWM, because the value in the pulse width (shadow) register only effects the positive  
edge of the output signal. The negative edge is always fixed and related to the clearing  
of the timer.

Mode 1: Symmetrical PWM Generation (Center Aligned PWM)  
Mode 1 is selected by setting the respective bit PMx in register PWMCON1 to ‘1’. In this  
mode the timer PTx of the respective PWM channel is counting up until it reaches the  
value in the associated period shadow register. Upon the next count pulse the count  
direction is reversed and the timer starts counting down now with subsequent count  
pulses until it reaches the value 0000 . Upon the next count pulse the count direction is  
H
reversed again and the count cycle is repeated with the following count pulses.  
The PWM output signal is switched to a high level when the timer contents are equal to  
or greater than the contents of the pulse width shadow register while the timer is counting  
up. The signal is switched back to a low level when the respective timer has counted  
down to a value below the contents of the pulse width shadow register. So in mode 1 this  
PWM value controls both edges of the output signal.  
Note that in mode 1 the period of the PWM signal is twice the period of the timer:  
PWM_Period  
= 2 × ([PPx] + 1)  
Mode1  
Figure 16-4 illustrates the operation and output waveforms of a PWM channel in mode 1  
for different values in the pulse width register. This mode is referred to as Center Aligned  
PWM, because the value in the pulse width (shadow) register effects both edges of the  
output signal symmetrically.

Burst Mode  
Burst mode is selected by setting bit PB01 in register PWMCON1 to ‘1’. This mode  
combines the signals from PWM channels 0 and 1 onto the port pin of channel 0. The  
output of channel 0 is replaced with the logical AND of channels 0 and 1. The output of  
channel 1 can still be used at its associated output pin (if enabled).  
Each of the two channels can either operate in mode 0 or 1.  
Note: It is guaranteed by design, that no spurious spikes will occur at the output pin of  
channel 0 in this mode. The output of the AND gate will be transferred to the output  
pin synchronously to internal clocks.  
XORing of the PWM signal and the port output latch value is done after the  
ANDing of channel 0 and 1.

Single Shot Mode  
Single shot mode is selected by setting the respective bit PSx in register PWMCON1 to  
‘1’. This mode is available for PWM channels 2 and 3.  
In this mode the timer PTx of the respective PWM channel is started via software and is  
counting up until it reaches the value in the associated period shadow register. Upon the  
next count pulse the timer is cleared to 0000 and stopped via hardware, i.e. the  
H
respective PTRx bit is cleared. The PWM output signal is switched to high level when the  
timer contents are equal to or greater than the contents of the pulse width shadow  
register. The signal is switched back to low level when the respective timer is cleared,  
i.e. is below the pulse width shadow register. Thus starting a PWM timer in single shot  
mode produces one single pulse on the respective port pin, provided that the pulse width  
value is between 0000 and the period value. In order to generate a further pulse, the  
H
timer has to be started again via software by setting bit PTRx.  
After starting the timer (i.e. PTRx = ‘1’) the output pulse may be modified via software.  
Writing to timer PTx changes the positive and/or negative edge of the output signal,  
depending on whether the pulse has already started (i.e. the output is high) or not (i.e.  
the output is still low). This (multiple) retriggering is always possible while the timer is  
running, i.e. after the pulse has started and before the timer is stopped.  
Loading counter PTx directly with the value in the respective PPx shadow register will  
abort the current PWM pulse upon the next clock pulse (counter is cleared and stopped  
by hardware).  
By setting the period (PPx), the timer start value (PTx) and the pulse width value (PWx)  
appropriately, the pulse width (tw) and the optional pulse delay (td) may be varied in a  
wide range.

PWM Module Registers  
The PWM module is controlled via two sets of registers. The waveforms are selected by  
the channel specific registers PTx (timer), PPx (period) and PWx (pulse width). Three  
common registers control the operating modes and the general functions (PWMCON0  
and PWMCON1) of the PWM module as well as the interrupt behavior (PWMIC).  
Up/Down Counters PTx  
Each counter PTx of a PWM channel is clocked either directly with fCPU or with fCPU/64.  
Bit PTIx in register PWMCON0 selects the respective clock source. A PWM counter  
counts up or down (controlled by hardware), while its respective run control bit PTRx is  
set. A timer is started (PTRx = ‘1’) via software and is stopped (PTRx = ‘0’) either via  
hardware or software, depending on its operating mode. Control bit PTRx enables or  
disables the clock input of counter PTx rather than controlling the PWM output signal.  
Note: For the register locations please refer to Table 16-2 further below.  
Table 16-1 summarizes the PWM frequencies that result from various combinations of  
operating mode, counter resolution (input clock) and pulse width resolution.

Period Registers PPx  
The 16-bit period register PPx (see Table 16-2 for locations) of a PWM channel  
determines the period of a PWM cycle, i.e. the frequency of the PWM signal. This  
register is buffered with a shadow register. The shadow register is loaded from the  
respective PPx register at the beginning of every new PWM cycle, or upon a write access  
to PPx, while the timer is stopped. The CPU accesses the PPx register while the  
hardware compares the contents of the shadow register with the contents of the  
associated counter PTx. When a match is found between counter and PPx shadow  
register, the counter is either reset to 0000 , or the count direction is switched from  
H
counting up to counting down, depending on the selected operating mode of that PWM  
channel.  
Pulse Width Registers PWx  
The 16-bit pulse width register PWx (see Table 16-2 for locations) of a PWM channel  
holds the actual PWM pulse width value which corresponds to the duty cycle of the PWM  
signal. This register is buffered with a shadow register. The CPU accesses the PWx  
register while the hardware compares the contents of the shadow register with the  
contents of the associated counter PTx. The shadow register is loaded from the  
respective PWx register at the beginning of every new PWM cycle, or upon a write  
access to PWx, while the timer is stopped.

When the counter value is greater than or equal to the shadow register value, the PWM  
signal is set, otherwise it is reset. The output of the comparators may be described by  
the boolean formula:  
PWM output signal = [PTx] [PWx shadow latch].  
This type of comparison allows a flexible control of the PWM signal.

Interrupt Request Generation  
Each of the four channels of the PWM module can generate an individual interrupt  
request. Each of these “channel interrupts” can activate the common “module interrupt”,  
which actually interrupts the CPU. This common module interrupt is controlled by the  
PWM Module Interrupt Control register PWMIC. The interrupt service routine can  
determine the active channel interrupt(s) from the channel specific interrupt request flags  
PIRx in register PWMCON0. The interrupt request flag PIRx of a channel is set at the  
beginning of a new PWM cycle, i.e. upon latching the shadow registers (LSR). This  
indicates that registers PPx and PWx are now ready to receive a new value. If a channel  
interrupt is enabled via its respective PIEx bit, also the common interrupt request flag  
PWMIR in register PWMIC is set, provided that it is enabled via the common interrupt  
enable bit PWMIE.  
Note: The channel interrupt request flags (PIRx in register PWMCON0) are not  
automatically cleared by hardware upon entry into the interrupt service routine, so  
they must be cleared via software. The module interrupt request flag PWMIR is  
cleared by hardware upon entry into the service routine, regardless of how many  
channel interrupts were active. However, it will be set again if during execution of  
the service routine a new channel interrupt request is generated.

PWM Output Signals  
The output signals of the four PWM channels (POUT3 … POUT0) are alternate output  
functions on Port 7 (P7.3 … P7.0). The output signal of each PWM channel is individually  
enabled by control bit PENx in register PWMCON1.  
The PWM signals are XORed with the respective port latch outputs before being driven  
to the port pins. This allows driving the PWM signal directly to the port pin (P7.x = ‘0’) or  
drive the inverted PWM signal (P7.x = ‘1’).

Software Control of the PWM Outputs  
In an application the PWM output signals are generally controlled by the PWM module.  
However, it may be necessary to influence the level of the PWM output pins via software  
either to initialize the system or to react on some extraordinary condition, e.g. a system  
fault or an emergency.  
Clearing the timer run bit PTRx stops the associated counter and leaves the respective  
output at its current level.  
The individual PWM channel outputs are controlled by comparators according to the  
formula:  
PWM output signal = [PTx] [PWx shadow latch].  
So whenever software changes registers PTx, the respective output will reflect the  
condition after the change. Loading timer PTx with a value greater than or equal to the  
value in PWx immediately sets the respective output, a PTx value below the PWx value  
clears the respective output.  
By clearing or setting the respective Port 7 output latch the PWM channel signal is driven  
directly or inverted to the port pin.  
Clearing the enable bit PENx disconnects the PWM channel and switches the respective  
port pin to the value in the port output latch.  
Note: To prevent further PWM pulses from occurring after such a software intervention  
the respective counter must be stopped first.

input-only port. The Port 5 lines may either be used as analog or digital inputs. For pins  
that shall be used as analog inputs it is recommended to disable the digital input stage

of a conversion sequence in auto scan modes). Bitfield ADM selects the operating mode  
of the A/D converter. A conversion (or a sequence) is then started by setting bit ADST.  
Clearing ADST stops the A/D converter after a certain operation which depends on the  
selected operating mode.  
The busy flag (read-only) ADBSY is set, as long as a conversion is in progress.  
The result of a conversion is stored in the result register ADDAT, or in register ADDAT2  
for an injected conversion.  
Note: Bitfield CHNR of register ADDAT is loaded by the ADC to indicate, which channel  
the result refers to.  
Bitfield CHNR of register ADDAT2 is loaded by the CPU to select the analog

The Analog/Digital Converter  
A conversion is started by setting bit ADST = ‘1’. The busy flag ADBSY will be set and  
the converter then selects and samples the input channel, which is specified by the  
channel selection field ADCH in register ADCON. The sampled level will then be held  
internally during the conversion. When the conversion of this channel is complete, the  
10-bit result together with the number of the converted channel is transferred into the  
result register ADDAT and the interrupt request flag ADCIR is set. The conversion result  
is placed into bitfield ADRES of register ADDAT.  
If bit ADST is reset via software, while a conversion is in progress, the A/D converter will  
stop after the current conversion (fixed channel modes) or after the current conversion  
sequence (auto scan modes).  
Setting bit ADST while a conversion is running, will abort this conversion and start a new  
conversion with the parameters specified in ADCON.  
Note: Abortion and restart (see above) are triggered by bit ADST changing from ‘0’ to ‘1’,  
i.e. ADST must be ‘0’ before being set.  
While a conversion is in progress, the mode selection field ADM and the channel  
selection field ADCH may be changed. ADM will be evaluated after the current  
conversion. ADCH will be evaluated after the current conversion (fixed channel modes)  
or after the current conversion sequence (auto scan modes).  
Fixed Channel Conversion Modes  
These modes are selected by programming the mode selection bitfield ADM in register  
ADCON to ‘00 ’ (single conversion) or to ‘01 ’ (continuous conversion). After starting the  
B
B
converter through bit ADST the busy flag ADBSY will be set and the channel specified  
in bit field ADCH will be converted. After the conversion is complete, the interrupt request  
flag ADCIR will be set.  
In Single Conversion Mode the converter will automatically stop and reset bits ADBSY  
and ADST.  
In Continuous Conversion Mode the converter will automatically start a new conversion  
of the channel specified in ADCH. ADCIR will be set after each completed conversion.  
When bit ADST is reset by software, while a conversion is in progress, the converter will  
complete the current conversion and then stop and reset bit ADBSY.

Wait for ADDAT Read Mode  
If in default mode of the ADC a previous conversion result has not been read out of  
register ADDAT by the time a new conversion is complete, the previous result in register  
ADDAT is lost because it is overwritten by the new value, and the A/D overrun error  
interrupt request flag ADEIR will be set.  
In order to avoid error interrupts and the loss of conversion results especially when using  
continuous conversion modes, the ADC can be switched to “Wait for ADDAT Read  
Mode” by setting bit ADWR in register ADCON.  
If the value in ADDAT has not been read by the time the current conversion is complete,  
the new result is stored in a temporary buffer and the next conversion is suspended  
(ADST and ADBSY will remain set in the meantime, but no end-of-conversion interrupt  
will be generated). After reading the previous value from ADDAT the temporary buffer is  
copied into ADDAT (generating an ADCIR interrupt) and the suspended conversion is  
started. This mechanism applies to both single and continuous conversion modes.  
Note: While in standard mode continuous conversions are executed at a fixed rate  
(determined by the conversion time), in “Wait for ADDAT Read Mode” there may  
be delays due to suspended conversions. However, this only affects the  
conversions, if the CPU (or PEC) cannot keep track with the conversion rate.

Channel Injection Mode  
Channel Injection Mode allows the conversion of a specific analog channel (also while  
the ADC is running in a continuous or auto scan mode) without changing the current  
operating mode. After the conversion of this specific channel the ADC continues with the  
original operating mode.  
Channel Injection mode is enabled by setting bit ADCIN in register ADCON and requires  
the Wait for ADDAT Read Mode (ADWR = ‘1’). The channel to be converted in this mode  
is specified in bitfield CHNR of register ADDAT2.  
Note: Bitfield CHNR in ADDAT2 is not modified by the A/D converter, but only the  
ADRES bit field. Since the channel number for an injected conversion is not  
buffered, bitfield CHNR of ADDAT2 must never be modified during the sample  
phase of an injected conversion, otherwise the input multiplexer will switch to the  
new channel. It is recommended to only change the channel number with no  
injected conversion running.

A channel injection can be triggered in two ways:  
• setting of the Channel Injection Request bit ADCRQ via software  
• a compare or a capture event of Capture/Compare register CC31 of the CAPCOM2  
unit, which also sets bit ADCRQ.  
The second method triggers a channel injection at a specific time, on the occurrence of  
a predefined count value of the CAPCOM timers or on a capture event of register CC31.  
This can be either the positive, the negative, or both the positive and the negative edge  
of an external signal. In addition, this option allows recording the time of occurrence of  
this signal.  
Note: The channel injection request bit ADCRQ will be set on any interrupt request of  
CAPCOM2 channel CC31, regardless whether the channel injection mode is  
enabled or not. It is recommended to always clear bit ADCRQ before enabling the  
channel injection mode.  
After the completion of the current conversion (if any is in progress) the converter will  
start (inject) the conversion of the specified channel. When the conversion of this  
channel is complete, the result will be placed into the alternate result register  
ADDAT2, and a Channel Injection Complete Interrupt request will be generated,  
which uses the interrupt request flag ADEIR (for this reason the Wait for ADDAT  
Read Mode is required).  
Note: If the temporary data register used in Wait for ADDAT Read Mode is full, the  
respective next conversion (standard or injected) will be suspended. The  
temporary register can hold data for ADDAT (from a standard conversion) or for  
ADDAT2 (from an injected conversion).

Arbitration of Conversions  
Conversion requests that are activated while the ADC is idle immediately trigger the  
respective conversion. If a conversion is requested while another conversion is currently  
in progress the operation of the A/D converter depends on the kind of the involved  
conversions (standard or injected).  
Note: A conversion request is activated if the respective control bit (ADST or ADCRQ)  
is toggled from ‘0’ to ‘1’, i.e. the bit must have been zero before being set.

Conversion Timing Control  
When a conversion is started, first the capacitances of the converter are loaded via the  
respective analog input pin to the current analog input voltage. The time to load the  
capacitances is referred to as sample time. Next the sampled voltage is converted to a  
digital value in successive steps, which correspond to the resolution of the ADC. During  
these phases (except for the sample time) the internal capacitances are repeatedly  
charged and discharged via pins VAREF and VAGND  
.
The current that has to be drawn from the sources for sampling and changing charges  
depends on the time that each respective step takes, because the capacitors must reach  
their final voltage level within the given time, at least with a certain approximation. The  
maximum current, however, that a source can deliver, depends on its internal resistance.  
The time that the two different actions during conversion take (sampling, and converting)  
can be programmed within a certain range in the C167CR relative to the CPU clock. The  
absolute time that is consumed by the different conversion steps therefore is  
independent from the general speed of the controller. This allows adjusting the A/D  
converter of the C167CR to the properties of the system:  
Fast Conversion can be achieved by programming the respective times to their  
absolute possible minimum. This is preferable for scanning high frequency signals. The  
internal resistance of analog source and analog supply must be sufficiently low,  
however.  
High Internal Resistance can be achieved by programming the respective times to a  
higher value, or the possible maximum. This is preferable when using analog sources  
and supply with a high internal resistance in order to keep the current as low as possible.  
The conversion rate in this case may be considerably lower, however.  
The conversion time is programmed via the upper two bits of register ADCON. Bitfield  
ADCTC (conversion time control) selects the basic conversion clock (fBC), used for the  
operation of the A/D converter. The sample time is derived from this conversion clock.  
Table 17-2 lists the possible combinations. The timings refer to CPU clock cycles, where  
tCPU = 1 / fCPU  
The limit values for fBC (see data sheet) must not be exceeded when selecting ADCTC  
and fCPU

The time for a complete conversion includes the sample time t , the conversion itself and  
S
the time required to transfer the digital value to the result register (2 tCPU) as shown in  
the example below.  
Note: The non-linear decoding of bit field ADCTC provides compatibility with 80C166  
designs for the default value (‘00’ after reset).  
Converter Timing Example  
Assumptions:  
fCPU = 25 MHz (i.e. tCPU = 40 ns), ADCTC = ‘00’, ADSTC = ‘00’.  
Basic clock  
Sample time  
fBC = fCPU / 4 = 6.25 MHz, i.e. tBC = 160 ns.  
tS = tBC × 8 = 1280 ns.  
Conversion time tC = tS + 40 tBC + 2 tCPU = (1280 + 6400 + 80) ns = 7.76 µs.

A/D Converter Interrupt Control  
At the end of each conversion, interrupt request flag ADCIR in interrupt control register  
ADCIC is set. This end-of-conversion interrupt request may cause an interrupt to vector  
ADCINT, or it may trigger a PEC data transfer which reads the conversion result from  
register ADDAT e.g. to store it into a table in the internal RAM for later evaluation.  
The interrupt request flag ADEIR in register ADEIC will be set either, if a conversion  
result overwrites a previous value in register ADDAT (error interrupt in standard mode),  
or if the result of an injected conversion has been stored into ADDAT2 (end-of-injected-  
conversion interrupt). This interrupt request may be used to cause an interrupt to vector  
ADEINT, or it may trigger a PEC data transfer.

The On-chip CAN Interface  
The Controller Area Network (CAN) bus with its associated protocol allows  
communication between a number of stations which are connected to this bus with high  
efficiency.  
Efficiency in this context means:  
• Transfer speed (Data rates of up to 1 Mbit/sec can be achieved)  
• Data integrity (The CAN protocol provides several means for error checking)  
• Host processor unloading (The controller here handles most of the tasks autonomously)  
• Flexible and powerful message passing (The extended CAN protocol is supported)  
The integrated CAN module handles the completely autonomous transmission and  
reception of CAN frames in accordance with the CAN specification V2.0 part B (active),  
i.e. the on-chip CAN module can receive and transmit:  
Standard frames with 11-bit identifiers, as well as  
Extended frames with 29-bit identifiers.  
Note: The CAN module is an XBUS peripheral and therefore requires bit XPEN in  
register SYSCON to be set in order to be operable.

The On-chip CAN Interface  
The bit timing is derived from the XCLK and is programmable up to a data rate of  
1 MBaud. The minimum CPU clock frequency to achieve 1 MBaud is fCPU 8/16 MHz,  
depending on the activation of the CAN module’s clock prescaler.  
The CAN module uses two pins of Port 4 to interface to a bus transceiver.  
It provides Full CAN functionality on up to 15 full-sized message objects (8 data bytes  
each). Message object 15 may be configured for Basic CAN functionality with a double-  
buffered receive object.  
Both modes provide separate masks for acceptance filtering which allows the  
acceptance of a number of identifiers in Full CAN mode and also allows disregarding a  
number of identifiers in Basic CAN mode.  
All message objects can be updated independent from the other objects during operation  
of the module and are equipped with buffers for the maximum message length of 8  
Bytes.  
18.1  
Functional Blocks of the CAN Module  
The CAN module combines several functional blocks (see Figure 18-2) that work in  
parallel and contribute to the controller’s performance. These units and the functions  
they provide are described below.  
Each of the message objects has a unique identifier and its own set of control and status  
bits. Each object can be configured with its direction as either transmit or receive, except  
the last message which is only a double receive buffer with a special mask register.  
An object with its direction set as transmit can be configured to be automatically sent  
whenever a remote frame with a matching identifier (taking into account the respective  
global mask register) is received over the CAN bus. By requesting the transmission of a  
message with the direction set as receive, a remote frame can be sent to request that  
the appropriate object be sent by some other node. Each object has separate transmit  
and receive interrupts and status bits, giving the CPU full flexibility in detecting when a  
remote/data frame has been sent or received.  
For general purpose two masks for acceptance filtering can be programmed, one for  
identifiers of 11 bits and one for identifiers of 29 bits. However the CPU must configure  
bit XTD (Normal or Extended Frame Identifier) for each valid message to determine  
whether a standard or extended frame will be accepted.  
The last message object has its own programmable mask for acceptance filtering,  
allowing a large number of infrequent objects to be handled by the system.  
The object layer architecture of the CAN controller is designed to be as regular and  
orthogonal as possible. This makes it easy to use.

Tx/Rx Shift Register  
The Transmit/Receive Shift Register holds the destuffed bit stream from the bus line to  
allow the parallel access to the whole data or remote frame for the acceptance match  
test and the parallel transfer of the frame to and from the Intelligent Memory.  
Bit Stream Processor  
The Bit Stream Processor (BSP) is a sequencer controlling the sequential data stream  
between the Tx/Rx Shift Register, the CRC Register, and the bus line. The BSP also  
controls the EML and the parallel data stream between the Tx/Rx Shift Register and the  
Intelligent Memory such that the processes of reception, arbitration, transmission, and  
error signalling are performed according to the CAN protocol. Note that the automatic  
retransmission of messages which have been corrupted by noise or other external error  
conditions on the bus line is handled by the BSP.  
Cyclic Redundancy Check Register  
This register generates the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) code to be transmitted  
after the data bytes and checks the CRC code of incoming messages. This is done by  
dividing the data stream by the code generator polynomial.  
Error Management Logic  
The Error Management Logic (EML) is responsible for the fault confinement of the CAN  
device. Its counters, the Receive Error Counter and the Transmit Error Counter, are  
incremented and decremented by commands from the Bit Stream Processor. According  
to the values of the error counters, the CAN controller is set into the states error active,  
error passive and busoff.  
The CAN controller is error active, if both error counters are below the error passive limit of 128.  
It is error passive, if at least one of the error counters equals or exceeds 128.  
It goes busoff, if the Transmit Error Counter equals or exceeds the busoff limit of 256.  
The device remains in this state, until the busoff recovery sequence is finished.  
Additionally, there is the bit EWRN in the Status Register, which is set, if at least one of  
the error counters equals or exceeds the error warning limit of 96. EWRN is reset, if both  
error counters are less than the error warning limit.

The On-chip CAN Interface  
Bit Timing Logic  
This block (BTL) monitors the busline input CAN_RXD and handles the busline related  
bit timing according to the CAN protocol.  
The BTL synchronizes on a recessive to dominant busline transition at Start of Frame  
(hard synchronization) and on any further recessive to dominant busline transition, if the  
CAN controller itself does not transmit a dominant bit (resynchronization).  
The BTL also provides programmable time segments to compensate for the propagation  
delay time and for phase shifts and to define the position of the Sample Point in the bit  
time. The programming of the BTL depends on the baudrate and on external physical  
delay times.  
Intelligent Memory  
The Intelligent Memory (CAM/RAM Array) provides storage for up to 15 message objects  
of maximum 8 data bytes length. Each of these objects has a unique identifier and its  
own set of control and status bits. After the initial configuration, the Intelligent Memory  
can handle the reception and transmission of data without further CPU actions.  
Organization of Registers and Message Objects  
All registers and message objects of the CAN controller are located in the special CAN  
address area of 256 Bytes, which is mapped into segment 0 and uses addresses  
00’EF00 through 00’EFFF . All registers are organized as 16-bit registers, located on  
H
H
word addresses. However, all registers may be accessed bytewise in order to select  
special actions without effecting other mechanisms.  
Register Naming reflects the specific name of a register as well as a general module  
indicator. This results in unique register names.  
Example: module indicator is C1 (CAN module 1), specific name is Control/Status  
Register (CSR), unique register name is C1CSR.  
Note: The address map shown below lists the registers which are part of the CAN  
controller. There are also C167CR specific registers that are associated with the  
CAN module.

This bit is set each time a message has been received successfully, since  
this bit was last reset by the CPU (the CAN controller does not reset this bit!).

The On-chip CAN Interface  
CAN Interrupt Handling  
The on-chip CAN module has one interrupt output, which is connected (through a  
synchronization stage) to a standard interrupt node in the C167CR in the same manner  
as all other interrupts of the standard on-chip peripherals. With this configuration, the  
user has all control options available for this interrupt, such as enabling/disabling, level  
and group priority, and interrupt or PEC service (see note below). The on-chip CAN  
module is connected to an XBUS interrupt control register.  
As for all other interrupts, the node interrupt request flag is cleared automatically by  
hardware when this interrupt is serviced (either by standard interrupt or PEC service).  
Note: As a rule, CAN interrupt requests can be serviced by a PEC channel. However,  
because PEC channels only can execute single predefined data transfers (there  
are no conditional PEC transfers), PEC service can only be used, if the respective  
request is known to be generated by one specific source, and that no other  
interrupt request will be generated in between. In practice this seems to be a rare  
case.  
Since an interrupt request of the CAN module can be generated due to different  
conditions, the appropriate CAN interrupt status register must be read in the service  
routine to determine the cause of the interrupt request. The interrupt identifier INTID (a  
number) in the Port Control/Interrupt Register (PCIR) indicates the cause of an interrupt.  
When no interrupt is pending, the identifier will have the value 00 .  
H
If the value in INTID is not 00 , then there is an interrupt pending. If bit IE in the control/  
H
status register is set also the interrupt signal to the CPU is activated. The interrupt signal  
(to the interrupt node) remains active until INTID gets 00 (i.e. all interrupt requests have  
H
been serviced) or until interrupt generation is disabled (CSR.IE = ‘0’).  
Note: The interrupt node is activated only upon a 0 1 transition of the CAN interrupt  
signal. The CAN interrupt service routine should only be left after INTID has been  
verified to be 00 .  
H
The interrupt with the lowest number has the highest priority. If a higher priority interrupt  
(lower number) occurs before the current interrupt is processed, INTID is updated and  
the new interrupt overrides the last one.  
INTID is also updated when the respective source request has been processed. This is  
indicated by clearing the INTPND flag in the respective object’s message control register  
(MCRn) or by reading the status partition of register CSR (in case of a status change  
interrupt). The updating of INTID is done by the CAN state machine and takes up to 6  
CAN clock cycles (1 CAN clock cycle = 1 or 2 CPU clock cycles, detrmined by the  
prescaler bit CPS), depending on current state of the state machine.  
Note: A worst case condition can occur when BRP = 00 AND the CAN controller is storing  
H
a just received message AND the CPU is executing consecutive accesses to the CAN  
module. In this rare case the maximum delay may be 26 CAN clock cycles.  
The impact of this delay can be minimized by clearing bit INTPND at an early stage

Configuration of the Bit Timing  
According to the CAN protocol specification, a bit time is subdivided into four segments:  
Sync segment, propagation time segment, phase buffer segment 1 and phase buffer  
segment 2.  
Each segment is a multiple of the time quantum tq, with  
(1 – CPS)  
tq = (BRP + 1) × 2  
× tXCLK.  
The Synchronization Segment (Sync Seg) is always 1 tq long. The Propagation Time  
Segment and the Phase Buffer Segment 1 (combined to TSeg1) define the time before  
the sample point, while Phase Buffer Segment 2 (TSeg2) defines the time after the  
sample point. The length of these segments is programmable (except Sync-Seg) via the  
Bit Timing Register (BTR).  
Note: For exact definition of these segments please refer to the CAN Protocol  
Specification.

Valid values for TSEG2 are “1 … 7”.  
Note: This register can only be written, if the config. change enable bit (CCE) is set.  
Hard Synchronization and Resynchronization  
To compensate phase shifts between clock oscillators of different CAN controllers, any  
CAN controller has to synchronize on any edge from recessive to dominant bus level if  
the edge lies between a Sample Point and the next Synchronization Segment, and on  
any other edge if it itself does not send a dominant level. If the Hard Synchronization is  
enabled (at the Start of Frame), the bit time is restarted at the Synchronization Segment,  
otherwise the Resynchronization Jump Width (SJW) defines the maximum number of  
time quanta by which a bit time may be shortened or lengthened during one  
Resynchronization. The current bit time is adjusted by  
tSJW = (SJW + 1) × tq  
Note: SJW is the programmed numerical value from the respective field of the Bit Timing  
Register.

The On-chip CAN Interface  
Calculation of the Bit Time  
The programming of the bit time according to the CAN Specification depends on the  
desired baudrate, the XCLK frequency, and on the external physical delay times of the  
bus driver, of the bus line and of the input comparator. These delay times are  
summarized in the Propagation Time Segment tProp, where  
tProp is two times the maximum of the sum of physical bus delay, the input comparator  
delay, and the output driver delay rounded up to the nearest multiple of tq.  
To fulfill the requirements of the CAN specification, the following conditions must be met:  
tTSeg2 2 × tq = Information Processing Time  
tTSeg2 tSJW  
tTSeg1 3 × tq  
tTSeg1 tSJW + tProp  
Note: In order to achieve correct operation according to the CAN protocol the total bit  
time should be at least 8 t , i.e. TSEG1 + TSEG2 5.  
q
So, to operate with a baudrate of 1 MBit/sec, the XCLK frequency has to be at  
least 8/16 MHz (depending on the prescaler control bit CPS in register CSR).  
The maximum tolerance df for XCLK depends on the Phase Buffer Segment 1 (PB1),  
the Phase Buffer Segment 2 (PB2), and the Resynchronization Jump Width (SJW):

Mask Registers  
Messages can use standard or extended identifiers. Incoming frames are masked with  
their appropriate global masks. Bit IDE of the incoming message determines, if the  
standard 11-bit mask in Global Mask Short (GMS) is to be used, or the 29-bit extended  
mask in Global Mask Long (UGML&LGML). Bits holding a “0” mean “don’t care”, i.e. do  
not compare the message’s identifier in the respective bit position.  
The last message object (15) has an additional individually programmable acceptance  
mask (Mask of Last Message, UMLM&LMLM) for the complete arbitration field. This  
allows classes of messages to be received in this object by masking some bits of the  
identifier.  
Note: The Mask of Last Message is ANDed with the Global Mask that corresponds to  
the incoming message.

Function  
RMTPND  
Remote Pending (Used for transmit-objects)  
Indicates that the transmission of this message object has been  
requested by a remote node, but the data has not yet been transmitted.  
When RMTPND is set, the CAN controller also sets TXRQ. RMTPND  
and TXRQ are cleared, when the message object has been successfully  
transmitted.  
1)  
In message object 15 (last message) these bits are hardwired to “0” (inactive) in order to prevent transmission  
of message 15.  
2)  
When the CAN controller writes new data into the message object, unused message bytes will be overwritten  
by non specified values. Usually the CPU will clear this bit before working on the data, and verify that the bit is  
still cleared once it has finished working to ensure that it has worked on a consistent set of data and not part  
of an old message and part of the new message.  
For transmit-objects the CPU will set this bit along with clearing bit CPUUPD. This will ensure that, if the  
message is actually being transmitted during the time the message was being updated by the CPU, the CAN  
controller will not reset bit TXRQ. In this way bit TXRQ is only reset once the actual data has been transferred.  
3)  
When the CPU requests the transmission of a receive-object, a remote frame will be sent instead of a data  
frame to request a remote node to send the corresponding data frame. This bit will be cleared by the CAN  
controller along with bit RMTPND when the message has been successfully transmitted, if bit NEWDAT has  
not been set.  
If there are several valid message objects with pending transmission request, the message with the lowest  
message number is transmitted first. This arbitration is done when several objects are requested for  
transmission by the CPU, or when operation is resumed after an error frame or after arbitration has been lost.  
Arbitration Registers  
The Arbitration Registers (UARn&LARn) are used for acceptance filtering of incoming  
messages and to define the identifier of outgoing messages. A received message with  
a matching identifier is accepted as a data frame (matching object has DIR = ‘0’) or as a  
remote frame (matching object has DIR = ‘1’). For matching, the corresponding Global  
Mask has to be considered (in case of message object 15 also the Mask of Last  
Message). Extended frames (using Global Mask Long) can be stored only in message  
objects with XTD = ‘1’, standard frames (using Global Mask Short) only in message  
objects with XTD = ‘0’.  
Message objects should have unique identifiers, i.e. if some bits are masked out by the  
Global Mask Registers (i.e. “don’t care”), then the identifiers of the valid message objects  
should differ in the remaining bits which are used for acceptance filtering.  
If a received message (data frame or remote frame) matches with more than one valid  
message object, it is associated with the object with the lowest message number. I.e. a  
received data frame is stored in the “lowest” object, or the “lowest” object is sent in  
response to a remote frame. The Global Mask is used for matching here.

The On-chip CAN Interface  
After a transmission (data frame or remote frame) the transmit request flag of the  
matching object with the lowest message number is cleared. The Global Mask is not  
used in this case.  
When the CAN controller accepts a data frame, the complete message is stored into  
the corresponding message object, including the identifier (also masked bits, standard  
identifiers have bits ID17-0 filled with ‘0’), the data length code (DLC), and the data bytes  
(valid bytes indicated by DLC). This is implemented to keep the data bytes connected  
with the identifier, even if arbitration mask registers are used.  
When the CAN controller accepts a remote frame, the corresponding transmit  
message object (1 … 14) remains unchanged, except for bits TXRQ and RMTPND,

last message mask cannot be retrieved from object 15).

Message Configuration  
The Message Configuration Register (low byte of MCFGn) holds a description of the  
message within this object.  
Note: There is no “don’t care” option for bits XTD and DIR. So incoming frames can only  
match with corresponding message objects, either standard (XTD = 0) or  
extended (XTD = 1). Data frames only match with receive-objects, remote frames  
only match with transmit-objects.  
When the CAN controller stores a data frame, it will write all the eight data bytes  
into a message object. If the data length code was less than 8, the remaining bytes  
of the message object will be overwritten by non specified values.

18.4  
Controlling the CAN Module  
The CAN module is controlled by the C167CR via hardware signals (e.g. reset) and via  
register accesses executed by software.  
Accessing the On-chip CAN Module  
The CAN module is implemented as an X-Peripheral and is therefore accessed like an  
external memory or peripheral. That means that the registers of the CAN module can be  
read and written using 16-bit or 8-bit direct or indirect MEM addressing modes. Also bit  
handling is not supported via the XBUS. Since the XBUS, to which the CAN module is  
connected, also represents the external bus, CAN accesses follow the same rules and  
procedures as accesses to the external bus. CAN accesses cannot be executed in  
parallel to external instruction fetches or data read/writes, but are arbitrated and inserted  
into the external bus access stream.  
Accesses to the CAN module use demultiplexed addresses, a 16-bit data bus (byte  
accesses possible), two waitstates and no tristate waitstate.  
The CAN address area starts at 00’EF00 and covers 256 Bytes. This area is decoded  
H
internally, so none of the programmable address windows must be sacrificed in order to  
access the on-chip CAN module.  
The advantage of locating the CAN address area in segment 0 is that the CAN module  
is accessible via data page 3, which is the ‘system’ data page, accessed usually through  
the ‘system’ data page pointer DPP3. In this way, the internal addresses, such like SFRs,  
internal RAM, and the CAN registers, are all located within the same data page and form  
a contiguous address space.  
Power Down Mode  
If the C167CR enters Power Down mode, the XCLK signal will be turned off which will  
stop the operation of the CAN module. Any message transfer is interrupted. In order to  
ensure that the CAN controller is not stopped while sending a dominant level (‘0’) on the  
CAN bus, the CPU should set bit INIT in the Control Register prior to entering Power  
Down mode. The CPU can check if a transmission is in progress by reading bits TXRQ  
and NEWDAT in the message objects and bit TXOK in the Control Register. After  
returning from Power Down mode via hardware reset, the CAN module has to be  
reconfigured.

C167CR

The On-chip CAN Interface  
CAN Module Reset  
The on-chip CAN module is connected to the XBUS Reset signal. This signal is  
activated, when the C167CR’s reset input is activated, when a software reset is  
executed, and in case of a watchdog reset. Activating the CAN module’s reset line  
triggers a hardware reset.  
This hardware reset:  
• disconnects the CAN_TXD output from the port logic  
• clears the error counters  
• resets the busoff state  
• switches the Control Register’s low byte to 01  
H
• leaves the Control Register’s high byte and the Interrupt Register undefined  
• does not change the other registers including the message objects (notified as UUUU)  
Note: The first hardware reset after power-on leaves the unchanged registers in an  
undefined state, of course.  
The value 01 in the Control Register’s low byte prepares for the module  
H
initialization.  
CAN Module Activation  
After a reset the CAN module is disabled. Before it can be used to receive or transmit  
messages the application software must activate the CAN module.  
Two actions are required for this purpose:  
General Module Enable globally activates the CAN module. This is done by setting  
bit XPEN in register SYSCON.  
Module Initialization determines the functionality of the CAN module (baudrate,  
active objects, etc.). This is the major part of the activation and is described in the  
following.  
User’s Manual  
18-31  
V3.1, 2000-03  
C167CR  
Derivatives  
The On-chip CAN Interface  
Module Initialization  
The module initialization is enabled by setting bit INIT in the control register CSR. This  
can be done by the CPU via software, or automatically by the CAN controller on a  
hardware reset, or if the EML switches to busoff state.  
While INIT is set:  
• all message transfer from and to the CAN bus is stopped  
• the CAN transmit line CAN_TXD is “1” (recessive)  
• the control bits NEWDAT and RMTPND of the last message object are reset  
• the counters of the EML are left unchanged.  
Setting bit CCE in addition, permits changing the configuration in the Bit Timing Register.  
To initialize the CAN Controller, the following actions are required:  
• configure the Bit Timing Register (CCE required)  
• set the Global Mask Registers  
• initialize each message object.  
If a message object is not needed, it is sufficient to clear its message valid bit (MSGVAL),  
i.e. to define it as not valid. Otherwise, the whole message object has to be initialized.  
After the initialization sequence has been completed, the CPU clears bit INIT.  
Now the BSP synchronizes itself to the data transfer on the CAN bus by waiting for the  
occurrence of a sequence of 11 consecutive recessive bits (i.e. Bus Idle) before it can  
take part in bus activities and start message transfers.  
The initialization of the message objects is independent of the state of bit INIT and can  
be done on the fly. The message objects should all be configured to particular identifiers  
or set to “not valid” before the BSP starts the message transfer, however.  
To change the configuration of a message object during normal operation, the CPU first  
clears bit MSGVAL, which defines it as not valid. When the configuration is completed,  
MSGVAL is set again.

Busoff Recovery Sequence  
If the device goes busoff, it will set bit BOFF and also set bit INIT of its own accord,  
stopping all bus activities. To have the CAN module take part in the CAN bus activities  
again, the bus-off recovery sequence must be started by clearing the bit INIT (via  
software). Once INIT has been cleared, the module will then wait for 129 occurrences of  
Bus idle before resuming normal operation.  
At the end of the busoff recovery sequence the Error Management Counters will be  
reset. This will automatically clear bits BOFF and EWRN.  
During the waiting time after the resetting of INIT each time a sequence of 11 recessive  
bits has been monitored, a Bit0Error code is written to the Control Register, enabling  
the CPU to check up whether the CAN bus is stuck at dominant or continously disturbed  
and to monitor the proceeding of the busoff recovery sequence.  
Note: An interrupt can be generated when entering the busoff state if bits IE and EIE are  
set. The corresponding interrupt code in bitfield INTID is 01 .  
H
The busoff recovery sequence cannot be shortened by setting or resetting INIT.

Port Control  
The receive data line and the transmit data line of the CAN module are alternate port  
functions. Make sure that the respective port pin for the receive line is switched to input  
in order to enable proper reception. The respective port driver for the transmit will  
automatically be switched ON.  
This provides a standard pin configuration without additional software control and also  
works in emulation mode where the port direction registers cannot be controlled.  
Note: The CAN interface signals are only available on Port 4 if the respective pins are  
not programmed to output segment address lines (alternate function of Port 4).  
Select 0, 2, or 4 segment address lines if the CAN interface is to be used.

System Reset

System Reset  
The internal system reset function provides initialization of the C167CR into a defined  
default state and is invoked either by asserting a hardware reset signal on pin RSTIN  
(Hardware Reset Input), upon the execution of the SRST instruction (Software Reset) or  
by an overflow of the watchdog timer.  
Whenever one of these conditions occurs, the microcontroller is reset into its predefined  
default state through an internal reset procedure. When a reset is initiated, pending  
internal hold states are cancelled and the current internal access cycle (if any) is  
completed. An external bus cycle is aborted, except for a watchdog reset (see  
description). After that the bus pin drivers and the IO pin drivers are switched off  
(tristate).  
The internal reset procedure requires 516 CPU clock cycles in order to perform a  
complete reset sequence. This 516 cycle reset sequence is started upon a watchdog  
timer overflow, a SRST instruction or when the reset input signal RSTIN is latched low  
(hardware reset). The internal reset condition is active at least for the duration of the  
reset sequence and then until the RSTIN input is inactive and the PLL has locked (if the  
PLL is selected for the basic clock generation). When this internal reset condition is  
removed (reset sequence complete, RSTIN inactive, PLL locked) the reset configuration  
is latched from PORT0. After that pins ALE, RD, and WR are driven to their inactive  
levels.  
Note: Bit ADP which selects the Adapt mode is latched with the rising edge of RSTIN.  
After the internal reset condition is removed, the microcontroller will either start program  
execution from external or internal memory, or enter boot mode.

Reset Sources  
Several sources (external or internal) can generate a reset for the C167CR. Software  
can identify the respective reset source via the reset source indication flags in register  
WDTCON. Generally any reset causes the same actions on the C167CR’s modules. The  
differences are described in the following sections.  
Hardware Reset  
A hardware reset is triggered when the reset input signal RSTIN is latched low. To ensure  
the recognition of the RSTIN signal (latching), it must be held low for at least 100 ns plus  
2 CPU clock cycles (input filter plus synchronization). Also shorter RSTIN pulses may  
trigger a hardware reset, if they coincide with the latch’s sample point. The actual  
minimum duration for a reset pulse depends on the current CPU clock generation mode.  
The worstcase is generating the CPU clock via the prescaler (f  
= f  
/ 2 in this case).  
CPU  
OSC  
After the reset sequence has been completed, the RSTIN input is sampled again. When  
the reset input signal is inactive at that time, the internal reset condition is terminated  
(indicated as short hardware reset, SHWR). When the reset input signal is still active at  
that time, the internal reset condition is prolonged until RSTIN gets inactive (indicated as  
long hardware reset, LHWR).  
During a hardware reset the inputs for the reset configuration (PORT0) need some time  
to settle on the required levels, especially if the hardware reset aborts a read operation  
from an external peripheral. During this settling time the configuration may intermittently  
be wrong. For the duration of one internal reset sequence after a reset has been  
recognized the configuration latches are not transparent, i.e. the (new) configuration  
becomes valid earliest after the completion of one reset sequence. This usually covers  
the required settling time.  
When the basic clock is generated by the PLL the internal reset condition should be  
extended until the on-chip PLL has locked (longer RSTIN signal).  
The input RSTIN provides an internal pullup device equalling a resistor of 50 kto  
250 k(the minimum reset time must be determined by the lowest value). Simply  
connecting an external capacitor is sufficient for an automatic power-on reset (see b) in  
Figure 19-1). RSTIN may also be connected to the output of other logic gates (see a) in  
Figure 19-1). See also “Bidirectional Reset” on Page 19-4 in this case.  
Note: A power-on reset requires an active time of two reset sequences (1036 CPU clock  
cycles) after a stable clock signal is available (about 10 50 ms, depending on  
the oscillator frequency, to allow the on-chip oscillator to stabilize).

System Reset  
Software Reset  
The reset sequence can be triggered at any time via the protected instruction SRST  
(Software Reset). This instruction can be executed deliberately within a program, e.g. to  
leave bootstrap loader mode, or upon a hardware trap that reveals a system failure.  
Note: A software reset only latches the configuration of the bus interface (SALSEL,  
CSSEL, WRC, BUSTYP) from PORT0.  
If bidirectional reset is enabled, a software reset is executed like a long hardware  
reset.  
Watchdog Timer Reset  
When the watchdog timer is not disabled during the initialization or serviced regularly  
during program execution it will overflow and trigger the reset sequence. Other than  
hardware and software reset the watchdog reset completes a running external bus cycle  
if this bus cycle either does not use READY at all, or if READY is sampled active (low)  
after the programmed waitstates. When READY is sampled inactive (high) after the  
programmed waitstates the running external bus cycle is aborted. Then the internal reset  
sequence is started.  
Note: A watchdog reset only latches the configuration of the bus interface (SALSEL,  
CSSEL, WRC, BUSTYP) from PORT0.  
If bidirectional reset is enabled a watchdog timer reset is executed like a long  
hardware reset.  
The watchdog reset cannot occur while the C167CR is in bootstrap loader mode!

Bidirectional Reset  
In a special mode (bidirectional reset) the C167CR’s line RSTIN(normally an input) may  
be driven active by the chip logic e.g. in order to support external equipment which is  
required for startup (e.g. flash memory).

Figure 19-2 Bidirectional Reset Operation  
Bidirectional reset reflects internal reset sources (software, watchdog) also to the RSTIN  
pin and converts short hardware reset pulses to a minimum duration of the internal reset  
sequence. Bidirectional reset is enabled by setting bit BDRSTEN in register SYSCON  
and changes RSTIN from a pure input to an open drain IO line. When an internal reset is  
triggered by the SRST instruction or by a watchdog timer overflow or a low level is applied  
to the RSTIN line, an internal driver pulls it low for the duration of the internal reset  
sequence. After that it is released and is then controlled by the external circuitry alone.  
The bidirectional reset function is useful in applications where external devices require  
a defined reset signal but cannot be connected to the C167CR’s RSTOUT signal, e.g.  
an external flash memory which must come out of reset and deliver code well before  
RSTOUT can be deactivated via EINIT.  
The following behavior differences must be observed when using the bidirectional reset  
feature in an application:  
• Bit BDRSTEN in register SYSCON cannot be changed after EINIT.  
• After a reset bit BDRSTEN is cleared.  
• The reset indication flags always indicate a long hardware reset.  
• The PORT0 configuration is treated like on a hardware reset. Especially the bootstrap  
loader may be activated when P0L.4 or RD is low.  
• Pin RSTIN may only be connected to ext. reset devices with an open drain output driver.  
• A short hardware reset is extended to the duration of the internal reset sequence.

Status After Reset  
After a reset is completed most units of the C167CR enter a well-defined default status.  
This ensures repeatable start conditions and avoids spurious activities after reset.  
Watchdog Timer Operation after Reset  
The watchdog timer starts running after the internal reset has completed. It will be  
clocked with the internal system clock divided by 2 (f  
/ 2), and its default reload value  
CPU  
16  
is 00 , so a watchdog timer overflow will occur 131,072 CPU clock cycles (2 × 2 ) after  
H
completion of the internal reset, unless it is disabled, serviced or reprogrammed  
meanwhile. When the system reset was caused by a watchdog timer overflow, the  
WDTR (Watchdog Timer Reset Indication) flag in register WDTCON will be set to ‘1’.  
This indicates the cause of the internal reset to the software initialization routine. WDTR  
is reset to ‘0’ by an external hardware reset, by servicing the watchdog timer or after  
EINIT. After the internal reset has completed, the operation of the watchdog timer can  
be disabled by the DISWDT (Disable Watchdog Timer) instruction. This instruction has  
been implemented as a protected instruction. For further security, its execution is only  
enabled in the time period after a reset until either the SRVWDT (Service Watchdog  
Timer) or the EINIT instruction has been executed. Thereafter the DISWDT instruction  
will have no effect.  
Reset Values for the C167CR Registers  
During the reset sequence the registers of the C167CR are preset with a default value.  
Most SFRs, including system registers and peripheral control and data registers, are  
cleared to zero, so all peripherals and the interrupt system are off or idle after reset. A  
few exceptions to this rule provide a first pre-initialization, which is either fixed or  
controlled by input pins.

After the reset sequence the different groups of pins of the C167CR are activated in  
different ways depending on their function. Bus and control signals are activated  
immediately after the reset sequence according to the configuration latched from  
PORT0, so either external accesses can takes place or the external control signals are  
inactive. The general purpose IO pins remain in input mode (high impedance) until  
reprogrammed via software (see Figure 19-3). The RSTOUT pin remains active (low)  
until the end of the initialization routine (see description).

Ports and External Bus Configuration during Reset  
During the internal reset sequence all of the C167CR’s port pins are configured as inputs  
by clearing the associated direction registers, and their pin drivers are switched to the  
high impedance state. This ensures that the C167CR and external devices will not try to  
drive the same pin to different levels. Pin ALE is held low through an internal pulldown,  
and pins RD, WR and READY are held high through internal pullups. Also the pins that  
can be configured for CS output will be pulled high.  
The registers SYSCON and BUSCON0 are initialized according to the configuration  
selected via PORT0.  
When an external start is selected (pin EA = ‘0’):  
• the Bus Type field (BTYP) in register BUSCON0 is initialized according to  
P0L.7 and P0L.6  
• bit BUSACT0 in register BUSCON0 is set to ‘1’  
• bit ALECTL0 in register BUSCON0 is set to ‘1’  
• bit ROMEN in register SYSCON will be cleared to ‘0’  
• bit BYTDIS in register SYSCON is set according to the data bus width (set if 8-bit)  
• bit WRCFG in register SYSCON is set according to pin P0H.0 (WRC)  
When an internal start is selected (pin EA = ‘1’):  
• register BUSCON0 is cleared to 0000  
H
• bit ROMEN in register SYSCON will be set to ‘1’  
• bit BYTDIS in register SYSCON is set, i.e. BHE/WRH is disabled  
• bit WRCFG in register SYSCON is set according to pin P0H.0 (WRC)  
The other bits of register BUSCON0, and the other BUSCON registers are cleared.  
This default initialization selects the slowest possible external accesses using the  
configured bus type.  
When the internal reset has completed, the configuration of PORT0, PORT1, Port 4,  
Port 6, and of the BHE signal (High Byte Enable, alternate function of P3.12) depends  
on the bus type which was selected during reset. When any of the external bus modes  
was selected during reset, PORT0 will operate in the selected bus mode. Port 4 will  
output the selected number of segment address lines (all zero after reset). Port 6 will  
drive the selected number of CS lines (CS0 will be ‘0’, while the other active CS lines  
will be ‘1’). When no memory accesses above 64 K are to be performed, segmentation  
may be disabled.  
When the on-chip bootstrap loader was activated during reset, pin TxD0 (alternate port  
function) will be switched to output mode after the reception of the zero byte.  
All other pins remain in the high-impedance state until they are changed by software or  
peripheral operation.

Reset Output Pin  
The RSTOUT pin is dedicated to generate a reset signal for the system components  
besides the controller itself. RSTOUT will be driven active (low) at the begin of any reset  
sequence (triggered by hardware, the SRST instruction or a watchdog timer overflow).  
RSTOUT stays active (low) beyond the end of the internal reset sequence until the  
protected EINIT (End of Initialization) instruction is executed (see Figure 19-3). This  
allows the complete configuration of the controller including its on-chip peripheral units  
before releasing the reset signal for the external peripherals of the system.  
Note: RSTOUT will float during emulation mode or adapt mode.  
The Internal RAM after Reset  
The contents of the internal RAM are not affected by a system reset. However, after a  
power-on reset, the contents of the internal RAM are undefined. This implies that the  
GPRs (R15 … R0) and the PEC source and destination pointers (SRCP7 … SRCP0,  
DSTP7 … DSTP0) which are mapped into the internal RAM are also unchanged after a  
warm reset, software reset or watchdog reset, but are undefined after a power-on reset.  
The Extension RAM (XRAM) after Reset  
The contents of the on-chip extension RAM are not affected by a system reset. However,  
after a power-on reset, the contents of the XRAM are undefined.  
Operation after Reset  
After the internal reset condition is removed the C167CR fetches the first instruction from  
the program memory (location 00’0000 for a standard start). As a rule, this first location  
H
holds a branch instruction to the actual initialization routine that may be located  
anywhere in the address space.  
Note: When the Bootstrap Loader Mode was activated during a hardware reset the  
C167CR does not fetch instructions from the program memory.  
The standard bootstrap loader expects data via serial interface ASC0.

Application-specific Initialization Routine  
After a reset the modules of the C167CR must be initialized to enable their operation on  
a given application. This initialization depends on the task the C167CR is to fulfill in that  
application and on some system properties like operating frequency, connected external  
circuitry, etc.  
The following initializations should typically be done, before the C167CR is prepared to  
run the actual application software:  
Memory Areas  
The external bus interface can be reconfigured after an external reset because register  
BUSCON0 is initialized to the slowest possible bus cycle configuration. The  
programmable address windows can be enabled in order to adapt the bus cycle  
characteristics to different memory areas or peripherals. Also after a single-chip mode  
reset the external bus interface can be enabled and configured.  
The internal program memory (if available) can be enabled and mapped after an  
external reset in order to use the on-chip resources. After a single-chip mode reset the  
internal program memory can be remapped or disabled at all in order to utilize external  
memory (partly or completely).  
Programmable program memory can be programmed, e.g. with data received over a  
serial link.  
Note: Initial Flash or OTP programming will rather be done in bootstrap loader mode.  
System Stack  
The default setup for the system stack (size, stackpointer, upper and lower limit  
registers) can be adjusted to application-specific values. After reset, registers SP and  
STKUN contain the same reset value 00’FC00 , while register STKOV contains  
H
00’FA00 . With the default reset initialization, 256 words of system stack are available,  
H
where the system stack selected by the SP grows downwards from 00’FBFE .  
H
Note: The interrupt system, which is disabled upon completion of the internal reset,  
should remain disabled until the SP is initialized.  
Traps (incl. NMI) may occur, even though the interrupt system is still disabled.  
Register Bank  
The location of a register bank is defined by the context pointer (CP) and can be adjusted  
to an application-specific bank before the general purpose registers (GPRs) are used.  
After reset, register CP contains the value 00’FC00 , i.e. the register bank selected by  
H
the CP grows upwards from 00’FC00 .

System Reset  
On-chip RAM  
Based on the application, the user may wish to initialize portions of the internal writable  
memory (IRAM/XRAM) before normal program operation. Once the register bank has  
been selected by programming the CP register, the desired portions of the internal  
memory can easily be initialized via indirect addressing.  
Interrupt System  
After reset the individual interrupt nodes and the global interrupt system are disabled. In  
order to enable interrupt requests the nodes must be assigned to their respective  
interrupt priority levels and be enabled. The vector locations must receive pointers to the  
respective exception handlers. The interrupt system must globally be enabled by setting  
bit IEN in register PSW. Care must be taken not to enable the interrupt system before  
the initialization is complete in order to avoid e.g. the corruption of internal memory  
locations by stack operations using an uninitialized stack pointer.  
Watchdog Timer  
After reset the watchdog timer is active and is counting its default period. If the watchdog  
timer shall remain active the desired period should be programmed by selecting the  
appropriate prescaler value and reload value. Otherwise the watchdog timer must be  
disabled before EINIT.  
Ports  
Generally all ports of the C167CR are switched to input after reset. Some pins may be  
automatically controlled, e.g. bus interface pins for an external start, TxD in Boot mode,  
etc. Pins that shall be used for general purpose IO must be initialized via software. The  
required mode (input/output, open drain/push pull, input threshold, etc.) depends on the  
intended function for a given pin.  
Peripherals  
After reset the C167CR’s on-chip peripheral modules enter a defined default state (see  
respective peripheral description) where it is disabled from operation. In order to use a  
certain peripheral it must be initialized according to its intended operation in the application.  
This includes selecting the operating mode (e.g. counter/timer), operating parameters  
(e.g. baudrate), enabling interface pins (if required), assigning interrupt nodes to the  
respective priority levels, etc.  
After these standard initialization also application-specific actions may be required like  
asserting certain levels to output pins, sending codes via interfaces, latching input levels, etc.

System Startup Configuration  
Although most of the programmable features of the C167CR are selected by software  
either during the initialization phase or repeatedly during program execution, there are  
some features that must be selected earlier, because they are used for the first access  
of the program execution (e.g. internal or external start selected via EA).  
These configurations are accomplished by latching the logic levels at a number of pins  
at the end of the internal reset sequence. During reset internal pullup/pulldown devices  
are active on those lines. They ensure inactive/default levels at pins which are not driven  
externally. External pulldown/pullup devices may override the default levels in order to  
select a specific configuration. Many configurations can therefore be coded with a  
minimum of external circuitry.  
Note: The load on those pins that shall be latched for configuration must be small  
enough for the internal pullup/pulldown device to sustain the default level, or  
external pullup/pulldown devices must ensure this level.  
Those pins whose default level shall be overridden must be pulled low/high  
externally.  
Make sure that the valid target levels are reached until the end of the reset  
sequence.  
There is a specific application note to illustrate this.

devices, as described for the reset state. In addition also the RSTOUT pin floats to  
tristate rather than be driven low. The on-chip oscillator is disabled.  
This mode allows switching a C167CR that is mounted to a board virtually off, so an  
emulator may control the board’s circuitry, even though the original C167CR remains in  
its place. The original C167CR also may resume to control the board after a reset

However, if a crystal is used, the emulator device’s oscillator can use this crystal  
only, if at least XTAL2 of the original device is disconnected from the circuitry (the

Pins P0H.2 and P0H.1 (CSSEL) define the number of active chip select signals during

Segment Address Lines  
Pins P0H.4 and P0H.3 (SALSEL) define the number of active segment address lines  
during reset. This allows the selection which pins of Port 4 drive address lines and which  
are used for general purpose IO. The two bits are latched in register RP0H. Depending  
on the system architecture the required address space is chosen and accessible right  
from the start, so the initialization routine can directly access all locations without prior  
programming. The required pins of Port 4 are automatically switched to address output  
mode.

Clock Generation Control  
Pins P0H.7, P0H.6 and P0H.5 (CLKCFG) select the basic clock generation mode during  
reset. The oscillator clock either directly feeds the CPU and peripherals (direct drive), it  
is divided by 2 or it is fed to the on-chip PLL which then provides the CPU clock signal  
(selectable multiple of the oscillator frequency, i.e. the input frequency). These bits are  
latched in register RP0H.

Power Management  
For an increasing number of microcontroller based systems it is an important objective  
to reduce the power consumption of the system as much as possible. A contradictory  
objective is, however, to reach a certain level of system performance. Besides  
optimization of design and technology a microcontroller’s power consumption can  
generally be reduced by lowering its operating frequency and/or by reducing the circuitry  
that is clocked. The architecture of the C167CR provides two operating modes to reduce  
its power consumption (see Figure 20-1) under software control:  
• In Idle mode the CPU is stopped, while the peripherals continue their operation. Idle  
mode can be terminated by any reset or interrupt request  
• In Power Down mode both the CPU and the peripherals are stopped. Power Down  
mode can only be terminated by a hardware reset.  
Note: All external bus actions are completed before Idle or Power Down mode is  
entered. However, Idle or Power Down mode is not entered if READY is enabled,  
but has not been activated (driven low) during the last bus access.  
Intermittent operation (i.e. alternating phases of high performance and power saving) is  
supported by cyclic interrupt generation of a timer.

Idle Mode  
The power consumption of the C167CR microcontroller can be decreased by entering  
Idle mode. In this mode all enabled peripherals, including the watchdog timer, continue  
to operate normally, only the CPU operation is halted and the on-chip memory modules  
are disabled.  
Idle mode is entered after the IDLE instruction has been executed and the instruction  
before the IDLE instruction has been completed. To prevent unintentional entry into Idle  
mode, the IDLE instruction has been implemented as a protected 32-bit instruction.  
Idle mode is terminated by interrupt requests from any enabled interrupt source whose  
individual Interrupt Enable flag was set before the Idle mode was entered, regardless of  
bit IEN.  
For a request selected for CPU interrupt service the associated interrupt service routine  
is entered if the priority level of the requesting source is higher than the current CPU  
priority and the interrupt system is globally enabled. After the RETI (Return from  
Interrupt) instruction of the interrupt service routine is executed the CPU continues  
executing the program with the instruction following the IDLE instruction. Otherwise, if  
the interrupt request cannot be serviced because of a too low priority or a globally  
disabled interrupt system the CPU immediately resumes normal program execution with  
the instruction following the IDLE instruction.  
For a request which was programmed for PEC service a PEC data transfer is performed  
if the priority level of this request is higher than the current CPU priority and the interrupt  
system is globally enabled. After the PEC data transfer has been completed the CPU  
remains in Idle mode. Otherwise, if the PEC request cannot be serviced because of a  
too low priority or a globally disabled interrupt system the CPU does not remain in Idle  
mode but continues program execution with the instruction following the IDLE  
instruction.

Idle mode can also be terminated by a Non-Maskable Interrupt, i.e. a high to low  
transition on the NMI pin. After Idle mode has been terminated by an interrupt or NMI  
request, the interrupt system performs a round of prioritization to determine the highest  
priority request. In the case of an NMI request, the NMI trap will always be entered.  
Any interrupt request whose individual Interrupt Enable flag was set before Idle mode  
was entered will terminate Idle mode regardless of the current CPU priority. The CPU  
will not go back into Idle mode when a CPU interrupt request is detected, even when the  
interrupt was not serviced because of a higher CPU priority or a globally disabled  
interrupt system (IEN = ‘0’). The CPU will only go back into Idle mode when the interrupt  
system is globally enabled (IEN = ‘1’) and a PEC service on a priority level higher than  
the current CPU level is requested and executed.  
Note: An interrupt request which is individually enabled and assigned to priority level 0  
will terminate Idle mode. The associated interrupt vector will not be accessed,  
however.  
The watchdog timer may be used to monitor the Idle mode: an internal reset will be  
generated if no interrupt or NMI request occurs before the watchdog timer overflows. To  
prevent the watchdog timer from overflowing during Idle mode it must be programmed  
to a reasonable time interval before Idle mode is entered.

Power Down Mode  
The microcontroller can be switched to Power Down mode which reduces the power  
consumption to a minimum. Clocking of all internal blocks is stopped, the contents of the  
internal RAM, however, are preserved through the voltage supplied via the VDD pins.  
The watchdog timer is stopped in Power Down mode. This mode can only be terminated  
by an external hardware reset, i.e. by asserting a low level on the RSTIN pin. This reset  
will initialize all SFRs and ports to their default state, but will not change the contents of  
the internal RAM.  
There are two levels of protection against unintentionally entering Power Down mode.  
First, the PWRDN (Power Down) instruction which is used to enter this mode has been  
implemented as a protected 32-bit instruction. Second, this instruction is effective only  
if the NMI (Non Maskable Interrupt) pin is externally pulled low while the PWRDN  
instruction is executed. The microcontroller will enter Power Down mode after the  
PWRDN instruction has completed.  
This feature can be used in conjunction with an external power failure signal which pulls  
the NMI pin low when a power failure is imminent. The microcontroller will enter the NMI  
trap routine which can save the internal state into RAM. After the internal state has been  
saved, the trap routine may then execute the PWRDN instruction. If the NMI pin is still  
low at this time, Power Down mode will be entered, otherwise program execution  
continues.  
The initialization routine (executed upon reset) can check the reset identification flags in  
register WDTCON to determine whether the controller was initially switched on, or  
whether it was properly restarted from Power Down mode.  
During power down the voltage at the VDD pins can be lowered to 2.5 V while the  
contents of the internal RAM will still be preserved.  
The total power consumption in Power Down mode depends on the current that flows  
through the port drivers. To minimize the consumed current the pin drivers can be  
disabled (pins switched to tristate) simply by configuring them for input.  
The bus interface pins can be separately disabled by releasing the external bus (disable  
all address windows by clearing the BUSACT bits) and switching the ports to input (if  
necessary). Of course the required software in this case must be executed from internal  
memory.

20.2.1  
Status of Output Pins During Power Reduction Modes  
During Idle mode the CPU clocks are turned off, while all peripherals continue their  
operation in the normal way. Therefore all ports pins, which are configured as general  
purpose output pins, output the last data value which was written to their port output  
latches. If the alternate output function of a port pin is used by a peripheral, the state of  
the pin is determined by the operation of the peripheral.  
Port pins which are used for bus control functions go into that state which represents the  
inactive state of the respective function (e.g. WR), or to a defined state which is based  
on the last bus access (e.g. BHE). Port pins which are used as external address/data  
bus hold the address/data which was output during the last external memory access  
before entry into Idle mode under the following conditions:  
P0H outputs the high byte of the last address if a multiplexed bus mode with 8-bit data  
bus is used, otherwise P0H is floating. P0L is always floating in Idle mode.  
PORT1 outputs the lower 16 bits of the last address if a demultiplexed bus mode is used,  
otherwise the output pins of PORT1 represent the port latch data.  
Port 4 outputs the segment address for the last access on those pins that were selected  
during reset, otherwise the output pins of Port 4 represent the port latch data.  
During power down mode the oscillator and the clocks to the CPU and to the  
peripherals are turned off. Like in Idle mode, all port pins which are configured as general  
purpose output pins output the last data value which was written to their port output  
latches.  
When the alternate output function of a port pin is used by a peripheral the state of this  
pin is determined by the last action of the peripheral before the clocks were switched off.  
Note: When the supply voltage is lowered in Power Down mode the high voltage of  
output pins will decrease accordingly.

System Programming  
To aid in software development, a number of features has been incorporated into the  
instruction set of the C167CR, including constructs for modularity, loops, and context  
switching. In many cases commonly used instruction sequences have been simplified  
while providing greater flexibility. The following programming features help to fully utilize  
this instruction set.  
Instructions Provided as Subsets of Instructions  
In many cases, instructions found in other microcontrollers are provided as subsets of  
more powerful instructions in the C167CR. This allows the same functionality to be  
provided while decreasing the hardware required and decreasing decode complexity. In  
order to aid assembly programming, these instructions, familiar from other  
microcontrollers, can be built in macros, thus providing the same names.  
Directly Substitutable Instructions are instructions known from other microcontrollers  
that can be replaced by the following instructions of the C167CR:

Modification of System Flags is performed using bit set or bit clear instructions  
(BSET, BCLR). All bit and word instructions can access the PSW register, so no  
instructions like CLEAR CARRY or ENABLE INTERRUPTS are required.  
External Memory Data Access does not require special instructions to load data  
pointers or explicitly load and store external data. The C167CR provides a Von  
Neumann memory architecture and its on-chip hardware automatically detects accesses  
to internal RAM, GPRs, and SFRs.  
Multiplication and Division  
Multiplication and division of words and double words is provided through multiple cycle  
instructions implementing a Booth algorithm. Each instruction implicitly uses the 32-bit  
register MD (MDL = lower 16 bits, MDH = upper 16 bits). The MDRIU flag (Multiply or  
Divide Register In Use) in register MDC is set whenever either half of this register is  
written to or when a multiply/divide instruction is started. It is cleared whenever the MDL

System Programming  
register is read. Because an interrupt can be acknowledged before the contents of  
register MD are saved, this flag is required to alert interrupt routines, which require the  
use of the multiply/divide hardware, so they can preserve register MD. This register,  
however, only needs to be saved when an interrupt routine requires use of the MD  
register and a previous task has not saved the current result. This flag is easily tested by  
the Jump-on-bit instructions.  
Multiplication or division is simply performed by specifying the correct (signed or  
unsigned) version of the multiply or divide instruction. The result is then stored in register  
MD. The overflow flag (V) is set if the result from a multiply or divide instruction is greater  
than 16 bits. This flag can be used to determine whether both word halfs must be  
transferred from register MD. The high portion of register MD (MDH) must be moved into  
the register file or memory first, in order to ensure that the MDRIU flag reflects the correct  
state.  
The following instruction sequence performs an unsigned 16 by 16-bit multiplication:

The above save sequence and the restore sequence after COPYL are only required if  
the current routine could have interrupted a previous routine which contained a MUL or  
DIV instruction. Register MDC is also saved because it is possible that a previous  
routine’s Multiply or Divide instruction was interrupted while in progress. In this case the  
information about how to restart the instruction is contained in this register. Register  
MDC must be cleared to be correctly initialized for a subsequent multiplication or  
division. The old MDC contents must be popped from the stack before the RETI  
instruction is executed.  
For a division the user must first move the dividend into the MD register. If a 16/16-bit  
division is specified, only the low portion of register MD must be loaded. The result is also  
stored into register MD. The low portion (MDL) contains the integer result of the division,  
while the high portion (MDH) contains the remainder.  
The following instruction sequence performs a 32 by 16-bit division:  
MOV

cc_V, ERROR ;Test for divide overflow  
R3, MDH  
R4, MDL  
;Move remainder to R3  
;Move integer result to R4. Clears MDRIU  
Whenever a multiply or divide instruction is interrupted while in progress, the address of  
the interrupted instruction is pushed onto the stack and the MULIP flag in the PSW of the  
interrupting routine is set. When the interrupt routine is exited with the RETI instruction,  
this bit is implicitly tested before the old PSW is popped from the stack. If MULIP = ‘1’  
the multiply/divide instruction is re-read from the location popped from the stack (return  
address) and will be completed after the RETI instruction has been executed.  
Note: The MULIP flag is part of the context of the interrupted task. When the  
interrupting routine does not return to the interrupted task (e.g. scheduler switches  
to another task) the MULIP flag must be set or cleared according to the context of  
the task that is switched to.  
BCD Calculations  
No direct support for BCD calculations is provided in the C167CR. BCD calculations are  
performed by converting BCD data to binary data, performing the desired calculations  
using standard data types, and converting the result back to BCD data. Due to the  
enhanced performance of division instructions binary data is quickly converted to BCD  
data through division by 10 . Conversion from BCD data to binary data is enhanced by  
D
multiple bit shift instructions. This provides similar performance compared to instructions  
directly supporting BCD data types, while no additional hardware is required.

Stack Operations  
The C167CR supports two types of stacks. The system stack is used implicitly by the  
controller and is located in the internal RAM. The user stack provides stack access to the  
user in either the internal or external memory. Both stack types grow from high memory  
addresses to low memory addresses.  
Internal System Stack  
A system stack is provided to store return vectors, segment pointers, and processor  
status for procedures and interrupt routines. A system register, SP, points to the top of  
the stack. This pointer is decremented when data is pushed onto the stack, and  
incremented when data is popped.  
The internal system stack can also be used to temporarily store data or pass it between  
subroutines or tasks. Instructions are provided to push or pop registers on/from the  
system stack. However, in most cases the register banking scheme provides the best  
performance for passing data between multiple tasks.  
Note: The system stack allows the storage of words only. Bytes must either be  
converted to words or the respective other byte must be disregarded.  
Register SP can only be loaded with even byte addresses (The LSB of SP is  
always ‘0’).  
Detection of stack overflow/underflow is supported by two registers, STKOV (Stack  
Overflow Pointer) and STKUN (Stack Underflow Pointer). Specific system traps (Stack  
Overflow trap, Stack Underflow trap) will be entered whenever the SP reaches either  
boundary specified in these registers.  
The contents of the stack pointer are compared to the contents of the overflow register,  
whenever the SP is DECREMENTED either by a CALL, PUSH or SUB instruction. An  
overflow trap will be entered, when the SP value is less than the value in the stack  
overflow register.  
The contents of the stack pointer are compared to the contents of the underflow register,  
whenever the SP is INCREMENTED either by a RET, POP or ADD instruction. An  
underflow trap will be entered, when the SP value is greater than the value in the stack  
underflow register.  
Note: When a value is MOVED into the stack pointer, NO check against the overflow/  
underflow registers is performed.  
In many cases the user will place a software reset instruction (SRST) into the stack  
underflow and overflow trap service routines. This is an easy approach, which does not  
require special programming. However, this approach assumes that the defined internal  
stack is sufficient for the current software and that exceeding its upper or lower boundary  
represents a fatal error.  
User’s Manual

V3.1, 2000-03  
C167CR  
Derivatives  
System Programming  
It is also possible to use the stack underflow and stack overflow traps to cache portions  
of a larger external stack. Only the portion of the system stack currently being used is  
placed into the internal memory, thus allowing a greater portion of the internal RAM to  
be used for program, data or register banking. This approach assumes no error but  
requires a set of control routines (see below).  
Circular (Virtual) Stack  
This basic technique allows pushing until the overflow boundary of the internal stack is  
reached. At this point a portion of the stacked data must be saved into external memory  
to create space for further stack pushes. This is called “stack flushing”. When executing  
a number of return or pop instructions, the upper boundary (since the stack empties  
upward to higher memory locations) is reached. The entries that have been previously  
saved in external memory must now be restored. This is called “stack filling”. Because  
procedure call instructions do not continue to nest infinitely and call and return  
instructions alternate, flushing and filling normally occurs very infrequently. If this is not  
true for a given program environment, this technique should not be used because of the  
overhead of flushing and filling.  
The basic mechanism is the transformation of the addresses of a virtual stack area,  
controlled via registers SP, STKOV and STKUN, to a defined physical stack area within  
the internal RAM via hardware. This virtual stack area covers all possible locations that  
SP can point to, i.e. 00’F000 through 00’FFFE . STKOV and STKUN accept the same

The size of the physical stack area within the internal RAM that effectively is used for  
standard stack operations is defined via bitfield STKSZ in register SYSCON (see below).

effect of this virtual stack mapping: First, register R1 is pushed onto the lowest physical  
stack location according to the selected maximum stack size. With the following

the SP is decremented by 2 as for the previous push operation.

The effect of the address transformation is that the physical stack addresses wrap  
around from the end of the defined area to its beginning. When flushing and filling the  
internal stack, this circular stack mechanism only requires to move that portion of stack  
data which is really to be re-used (i.e. the upper part of the defined stack area) instead  
of the whole stack area. Stack data that remain in the lower part of the internal stack  
need not be moved by the distance of the space being flushed or filled, as the stack  
pointer automatically wraps around to the beginning of the freed part of the stack area.  
Note: This circular stack technique is applicable for stack sizes of 32 to 512 words  
(STKSZ = ‘000 ’ to ‘100 ’), it does not work with option STKSZ = ‘111 ’, which  
B
B
B
uses the complete internal RAM for system stack.  
In the latter case the address transformation mechanism is deactivated.  
When a boundary is reached, the stack underflow or overflow trap is entered, where the  
user moves a predetermined portion of the internal stack to or from the external stack.  
The amount of data transferred is determined by the average stack space required by  
routines and the frequency of calls, traps, interrupts and returns. In most cases this will  
be approximately one quarter to one tenth the size of the internal stack. Once the transfer  
is complete, the boundary pointers are updated to reflect the newly allocated space on  
the internal stack. Thus, the user is free to write code without concern for the internal  
stack limits. Only the execution time required by the trap routines affects user programs.  
The following procedure initializes the controller for usage of the circular stack  
mechanism:  
• Specify the size of the physical system stack area within the internal RAM (bitfield  
STKSZ in register SYSCON).  
• Define two pointers, which specify the upper and lower boundary of the external stack.  
These values are then tested in the stack underflow and overflow trap routines when  
moving data.  
• Set the stack overflow pointer (STKOV) to the limit of the defined internal stack area  
plus six words (for the reserved space to store two interrupt entries).  
The internal stack will now fill until the overflow pointer is reached. After entry into the  
overflow trap procedure, the top of the stack will be copied to the external memory. The  
internal pointers will then be modified to reflect the newly allocated space. After exiting  
from the trap procedure, the internal stack will wrap around to the top of the internal  
stack, and continue to grow until the new value of the stack overflow pointer is reached.  
When the underflow pointer is reached while the stack is meptied the bottom of stack is  
reloaded from the external memory and the internal pointers are adjusted accordingly.

Linear Stack  
The C167CR also offers a linear stack option (STKSZ = ‘111 ’), where the system stack  
B
may use the complete internal RAM area. This provides a large system stack without  
requiring procedures to handle data transfers for a circular stack. However, this method  
also leaves less RAM space for variables or code. The RAM area that may effectively be  
consumed by the system stack is defined via the STKUN and STKOV pointers. The  
underflow and overflow traps in this case serve for fatal error detection only.  
For the linear stack option all modifiable bits of register SP are used to access the  
physical stack. Although the stack pointer may cover addresses from 00’F000 up to  
H
00’FFFE the (physical) system stack must be located within the internal RAM and  
H
therefore may only use the address range 00’F600 to 00’FDFE . It is the user’s  
H
H
responsibility to restrict the system stack to the internal RAM range.  
Note: Avoid stack accesses below the IRAM area (ESFR space and reserved area) and  
within address range 00’FE00 and 00’FFFE (SFR space).

Otherwise unpredictable results will occur.  
User Stacks  
User stacks provide the ability to create task specific data stacks and to off-load data  
from the system stack. The user may push both bytes and words onto a user stack, but  
is responsible for using the appropriate instructions when popping data from the specific  
user stack. No hardware detection of overflow or underflow of a user stack is provided.  
The following addressing modes allow implementation of user stacks:  
[–Rw], Rb or [–Rw], Rw: Pre-decrement Indirect Addressing.  
Used to push one byte or word onto a user stack. This mode is only available for MOV  
instructions and can specify any GPR as the user stack pointer.  
Rb, [Rw +] or Rw, [Rw +]: Post-increment Index Register Indirect Addressing.  
i
i
Used to pop one byte or word from a user stack. This mode is available to most  
instructions, but only GPRs R0-R3 can be specified as the user stack pointer.

Used to pop one byte or word from a user stack. This mode is only available for MOV  
instructions and can specify any GPR as the user stack pointer.

Register Banking  
Register banking provides the user with an extremely fast method to switch user context.  
A single machine cycle instruction saves the old bank and enters a new register bank.  
Each register bank may assign up to 16 registers. Each register bank should be  
allocated during coding based on the needs of each task. Once the internal memory has  
been partitioned into a register bank space, internal stack space and a global internal  
memory area, each bank pointer is then assigned. Thus, upon entry into a new task, the  
appropriate bank pointer is used as the operand for the SCXT (switch context)  
instruction. Upon exit from a task a simple POP instruction to the context pointer (CP)  
restores the previous task’s register bank.  
21.3  
Procedure Call Entry and Exit  
To support modular programming a procedure mechanism is provided to allow coding of  
frequently used portions of code into subroutines. The CALL and RET instructions store  
and restore the value of the instruction pointer (IP) on the system stack before and after  
a subroutine is executed.  
Procedures may be called conditionally with instructions CALLA or CALLI, or be called  
unconditionally using instructions CALLR or CALLS.  
Note: Any data pushed onto the system stack during execution of the subroutine must  
be popped before the RET instruction is executed.  
Passing Parameters on the System Stack  
Parameters may be passed via the system stack through PUSH instructions before the  
subroutine is called, and POP instructions during execution of the subroutine. Base plus  
offset indirect addressing also permits access to parameters without popping these  
parameters from the stack during execution of the subroutine. Indirect addressing  
provides a mechanism of accessing data referenced by data pointers, which are passed  
to the subroutine.  
In addition, two instructions have been implemented to allow one parameter to be  
passed on the system stack without additional software overhead.  
The PCALL (push and call) instruction first pushes the ‘reg’ operand and the IP contents  
onto the system stack and then passes control to the subroutine specified by the ‘caddr’  
operand.  
When exiting from the subroutine, the RETP (return and pop) instruction first pops the IP  
and then the ‘reg’ operand from the system stack and returns to the calling program.

Cross Segment Subroutine Calls  
Calls to subroutines in different segments require the use of the CALLS (call inter-  
segment subroutine) instruction. This instruction preserves both the CSP (code segment  
pointer) and IP on the system stack.  
Upon return from the subroutine, a RETS (return from inter-segment subroutine)  
instruction must be used to restore both the CSP and IP. This ensures that the next  
instruction after the CALLS instruction is fetched from the correct segment.  
Note: It is possible to use CALLS within the same segment, but still two words of the  
stack are used to store both the IP and CSP.  
Providing Local Registers for Subroutines  
For subroutines which require local storage, the following methods are provided:  
Alternate Bank of Registers: Upon entry into a subroutine, it is possible to specify a  
new set of local registers by executing the SCXT (switch context) instruction. This  
mechanism does not provide a method to recursively call a subroutine.  
Saving and Restoring of Registers: To provide local registers, the contents of the  
registers which are required for use by the subroutine can be pushed onto the stack and  
the previous values be popped before returning to the calling routine. This is the most  
common technique used today and it does provide a mechanism to support recursive  
procedures. This method, however, requires two machine cycles per register stored on  
the system stack (one cycle to PUSH the register, and one to POP the register).  
Use of the System Stack for Local Registers: It is possible to use the SP and CP to  
set up local subroutine register frames. This enables subroutines to dynamically allocate  
local variables as needed within two machine cycles. A local frame is allocated by simply  
subtracting the number of required local registers from the SP, and then moving the  
value of the new SP to the CP.  
This operation is supported through the SCXT (switch context) instruction with the  
addressing mode ‘reg, mem’. Using this instruction saves the old contents of the CP on  
the system stack and moves the value of the SP into CP (see example below). Each local  
register is then accessed as if it was a normal register. Upon exit from the subroutine,  
first the old CP must be restored by popping it from the stack and then the number of  
used local registers must be added to the SP to restore the allocated local space back  
to the system stack.  
Note: The system stack is growing downwards, while the register bank is growing  
upwards.

Table Searching  
A number of features have been included to decrease the execution time required to  
search tables. First, branch delays are eliminated by the branch target cache after the  
first iteration of the loop. Second, in non-sequentially searched tables, the enhanced  
performance of the ALU allows more complicated hash algorithms to be processed to  
obtain better table distribution. For sequentially searched tables, the auto-increment  
indirect addressing mode and the E (end of table) flag stored in the PSW decrease the  
number of overhead instructions executed in the loop.  
The two examples below illustrate searching ordered tables and non-ordered tables,  
respectively:

Floating Point Support  
All floating point operations are performed using software. Standard multiple precision  
instructions are used to perform calculations on data types that exceed the size of the  
ALU. Multiple bit rotate and logic instructions allow easy masking and extracting of  
portions of floating point numbers.  
To decrease the time required to perform floating point operations, two hardware  
features have been implemented in the CPU core. First, the PRIOR instruction aids in  
normalizing floating point numbers by indicating the position of the first set bit in a GPR.  
This result can the be used to rotate the floating point result accordingly. The second  
feature aids in properly rounding the result of normalized floating point numbers through  
the overflow (V) flag in the PSW. This flag is set when a one is shifted out of the carry bit  
during shift right operations. The overflow flag and the carry flag are then used to round  
the floating point result based on the desired rounding algorithm.

Peripheral Control and Interface  
All communication between peripherals and the CPU is performed either by PEC  
transfers to and from internal memory, or by explicitly addressing the SFRs associated  
with the specific peripherals. After resetting the C167CR all peripherals (except the  
watchdog timer) are disabled and initialized to default values. A desired configuration of  
a specific peripheral is programmed using MOV instructions of either constants or  
memory values to specific SFRs. Specific control flags may also be altered via bit  
instructions.  
Once in operation, the peripheral operates autonomously until an end condition is  
reached at which time it requests a PEC transfer or requests CPU servicing through an  
interrupt routine. Information may also be polled from peripherals through read accesses  
to SFRs or bit operations including branch tests on specific control bits in SFRs. To  
ensure proper allocation of peripherals among multiple tasks, a portion of the internal  
memory has been made bit addressable to allow user semaphores. Instructions have  
also been provided to lock out tasks via software by setting or clearing user specific bits  
and conditionally branching based on these specific bits.  
It is recommended that bit fields in control SFRs are updated using the BFLDH and  
BFLDL instructions or a MOV instruction to avoid undesired intermediate modes of  
operation which can occur, when BCLR/BSET or AND/OR instruction sequences are  
used.  
21.7  
Trap/Interrupt Entry and Exit  
Interrupt routines are entered when a requesting interrupt has a priority higher than the  
current CPU priority level. Traps are entered regardless of the current CPU priority.  
When either a trap or interrupt routine is entered, the state of the machine is preserved  
on the system stack and a branch to the appropriate trap/interrupt vector is made.  
All trap and interrupt routines require the use of the RETI (return from interrupt)  
instruction to exit from the called routine. This instruction restores the system state from  
the system stack and then branches back to the location where the trap or interrupt  
occurred.

Unseparable Instruction Sequences  
The instructions of the C167CR are very efficient (most instructions execute in one  
machine cycle) and even the multiplication and division are interruptable in order to  
minimize the response latency to interrupt requests (internal and external). In many  
microcontroller applications this is vital.  
Some special occasions, however, require certain code sequences (e.g. semaphore  
handling) to be uninterruptable to function properly. This can be provided by inhibiting  
interrupts during the respective code sequence by disabling and enabling them before  
and after the sequence. The necessary overhead may be reduced by means of the  
ATOMIC instruction which allows locking 1 … 4 instructions to an unseparable code  
sequence, during which the interrupt system (standard interrupts and PEC requests)  
and Class A Traps (NMI, stack overflow/underflow) are disabled. A Class B Trap  
(illegal opcode, illegal bus access, etc.), however, will interrupt the atomic sequence,  
since it indicates a severe hardware problem.  
The interrupt inhibit caused by an ATOMIC instruction gets active immediately, i.e. no  
other instruction will enter the pipeline except the one that follows the ATOMIC  
instruction, and no interrupt request will be serviced in between. All instructions requiring  
multiple cycles or hold states are regarded as one instruction in this sense (e.g. MUL is  
one instruction). Any instruction type can be used within an unseparable code sequence.

Note: As long as any Class B trap is pending (any of the class B trap flags in register  
TFR is set) the ATOMIC instruction will not work. Clear the respective B trap flag  
at the beginning of a B trap routine if ATOMIC shall be used within the routine.  
21.9  
Overriding the DPP Addressing Mechanism  
The standard mechanism to access data locations uses one of the four data page  
pointers (DPPx), which selects a 16-KByte data page, and a 14-bit offset within this data  
page. The four DPPs allow immediate access to up to 64 KByte of data. In applications  
with big data arrays, especially in HLL applications using large memory models, this may  
require frequent reloading of the DPPs, even for single accesses.

oriented data access scheme for 1 … 4 instructions without having to change the current

the segment taken from the EXTS instruction. This greatly simplifies address calculation

As long as any Class B trap is pending (any of the class B trap flags in register  
TFR is set) the EXTend instructions will not work. Clear the respective B trap flag  
at the beginning of a B trap routine if EXT* shall be used within the routine.  
Short Addressing in the Extended SFR (ESFR) Space  
The short addressing modes of the C167CR (REG or BITOFF) implicitly access the SFR  
space. The additional ESFR space would have to be accessed via long addressing  
modes (MEM or [Rw]). The EXTR (extend register) instruction redirects accesses in  
short addressing modes to the ESFR space for 1 … 4 instructions, so the additional  
registers can be accessed this way, too.  
The EXTPR and EXTSR instructions combine the DPP override mechanism with the  
redirection to the ESFR space using a single instruction.  
Note: Instructions EXTR, EXTPR and EXTSR inhibit interrupts the same way as ATOMIC.  
The switching to the ESFR area and data page overriding is checked by the  
development tools or handled automatically.  
Nested Locked Sequences  
Each of the described extension instruction and the ATOMIC instruction starts an  
internal “extension counter” counting the effected instructions. When another extension  
or ATOMIC instruction is contained in the current locked sequence this counter is  
restarted with the value of the new instruction. This allows the construction of locked  
sequences longer than 4 instructions.  
Note: Interrupt latencies may be increased when using locked code sequences.  
PEC requests are not serviced during idle mode, if the IDLE instruction is part of  
a locked sequence.

Handling the Internal Code Memory  
The Mask-ROM/OTP/Flash versions of the C167CR provide on-chip code memory that  
may store code as well as data. The lower 32 KByte of this code memory are referred to  
as the „internal ROM area“. Access to this internal ROM area is controlled during the  
reset configuration and via software. The ROM area may be mapped to segment 0, to  
segment 1 or the code memory may be disabled at all.  
Note: The internal ROM area always occupies an address area of 32 KByte, even if the  
implemented mask ROM/OTP/Flash memory is smaller than that (e.g. 8 KByte).  
Of course the total implemented memory may exceed 32 KBytes.  
Code Memory Configuration During Reset  
The control input pin EA (External Access) enables the user to define the address area  
from which the first instructions after reset are fetched. When EA is low (‘0’) during reset,  
the internal code memory is disabled and the first instructions are fetched from external  
memory. When EA is high (‘1’) during reset, the internal code memory is globally enabled  
and the first instructions are fetched from the internal memory.  
Note: Be sure not to select internal memory access after reset on ROMless devices.  
Mapping the Internal ROM Area  
After reset the internal ROM area is mapped into segment 0, the “system segment”  
(00’0000 … 00’7FFF ) as a default. This is necessary to allow the first instructions to  
H
H
be fetched from locations 00’0000 ff. The ROM area may be mapped to segment 1  
H
(01’0000 … 01’7FFF ) by setting bit ROMS1 in register SYSCON. The internal ROM  
H
H
area may now be accessed through the lower half of segment 1, while accesses to  
segment 0 will now be made to external memory. This adds flexibility to the system  
software. The interrupt/trap vector table, which uses locations 00’0000 through  
H
00’01FF , is now part of the external memory and may therefore be modified, i.e. the  
H
system software may now change interrupt/trap handlers according to the current  
condition of the system. The internal code memory can still be used for fixed software  
routines like IO drivers, math libraries, application specific invariant routines, tables, etc.  
This combines the advantage of an integrated non-volatile memory with the advantage  
of a flexible, adaptable software system.

Enabling and Disabling the Internal Code Memory After Reset

If the internal code memory only contains the startup code and/or test software, the

Pits, Traps and Mines  
Although handling the internal code memory provides powerful means to enhance the  
overall performance and flexibility of a system, extreme care must be taken in order to  
avoid a system crash. Instruction memory is the most crucial resource for the C167CR  
and it must be made sure that it never runs out of it. The following precautions help to  
take advantage of the methods mentioned above without jeopardizing system security.  
Internal code memory access after reset: When the first instructions are to be fetched  
from internal memory (EA = ‘1’), the device must contain code memory, and this must  
contain a valid reset vector and valid code at its destination.  
Mapping the internal ROM area to segment 1: Due to instruction pipelining, any new  
ROM mapping will at the earliest become valid for the second instruction after the  
instruction which has changed the ROM mapping. To enable accesses to the ROM area  
after mapping a branch to the newly selected ROM area (JMPS) and reloading of all data  
page pointers is required.  
This also applies to re-mapping the internal ROM area to segment 0.  
Enabling the internal code memory after reset: When enabling the internal code  
memory after having booted the system from external memory, note that the C167CR  
will then access the internal memory using the current segment offset, rather than  
accessing external memory.  
Disabling the internal code memory after reset: When disabling the internal code  
memory after having booted the system from there, note that the C167CR will not access  
external memory before a jump to segment 0 (in this case) is executed.  
General Rules  
When mapping the code memory no instruction or data accesses should be made to the  
internal memory, otherwise unpredictable results may occur.  
To avoid these problems, the instructions that configure the internal code memory  
should be executed from external memory or from the on-chip RAM.  
Whenever the internal code memory is disabled, enabled or remapped the DPPs must  
be explicitly (re)loaded to enable correct data accesses to the internal and/or external  
memory.

The Register Set  
This section summarizes all registers, which are implemented in the C167CR and  
explains the description format which is used in the chapters describing the function and  
layout of the SFRs.  
For easy reference the registers are ordered according to two different keys (except for GPRs):  
• Ordered by address, to check which register a given address references,  
• Ordered by register name, to find the location of a specific register.

Register Description Format  
In the respective chapters the function and the layout of the SFRs is described in a  
specific format which provides a number of details about the described special function  
register. The example below shows how to interpret these details.

CPU General Purpose Registers (GPRs)  
The GPRs form the register bank that the CPU works with. This register bank may be  
located anywhere within the internal RAM via the Context Pointer (CP). Due to the  
addressing mechanism, GPR banks can only reside within the internal RAM. All GPRs  
are bit-addressable.

The Register Set  
The first 8 GPRs (R7 … R0) may also be accessed bytewise. Other than with SFRs,  
writing to a GPR byte does not affect the other byte of the respective GPR.  
The respective halves of the byte-accessible registers receive special names:

Special Notes  
PEC Pointer Registers  
The source and destination pointers for the peripheral event controller are mapped to a  
special area within the internal RAM. Pointers that are not occupied by the PEC may  
therefore be used like normal RAM. During Power Down mode or any warm reset the  
PEC pointers are preserved.  
The PEC and its registers are described in Chapter 5.  
GPR Access in the ESFR Area  
The locations 00’F000 … 00’F01E within the ESFR area are reserved and allow to  
H
H
access the current register bank via short register addressing modes. The GPRs are  
mirrored to the ESFR area which allows access to the current register bank even after  
switching register spaces (see example below).

Writing Bytes to SFRs  
All special function registers may be accessed wordwise or bytewise (some of them even  
bitwise). Reading bytes from word SFRs is a non-critical operation. However, when  
writing bytes to word SFRs the complementary byte of the respective SFR is cleared with  
the write operation.

Instruction Set Summary

Instruction Set Summary  
This chapter briefly summarizes the C167CR’s instructions ordered by instruction  
classes. This provides a basic understanding of the C167CR’s instruction set, the power  
and versatility of the instructions and their general usage.  
A detailed description of each single instruction, including its operand data type,  
condition flag settings, addressing modes, length (number of bytes) and object code  
format is provided in the “Instruction Set Manual” for the C166 Family. This manual  
also provides tables ordering the instructions according to various criteria, to allow quick  
references.  
Summary of Instruction Classes  
Grouping the various instruction into classes aids in identifying similar instructions (e.g.  
SHR, ROR) and variations of certain instructions (e.g. ADD, ADDB). This provides an  
easy access to the possibilities and the power of the instructions of the C167CR.  
Note: The used mnemonics refer to the detailed description.

Miscellaneous  
• Null operation which requires 2 Bytes of  
storage and the minimum time for execution:  
NOP  
• Definition of an unseparable instruction sequence: ATOMIC  
• Switch ‘reg’, ‘bitoff’ and ‘bitaddr’ addressing modes  
to the Extended SFR space:  
EXTR

EXTS  
• Override the DPP addressing scheme  
using a specific data page instead of the DPPs,  
and optionally switch to ESFR space:  
• Override the DPP addressing scheme  
using a specific segment instead of the DPPs,  
and optionally switch to ESFR space:  
EXTPR  
EXTSR  
Note: The ATOMIC and EXT* instructions provide support for uninterruptable code  
sequences e.g. for semaphore operations. They also support data addressing  
beyond the limits of the current DPPs (except ATOMIC), which is advantageous  
for bigger memory models in high level languages. Refer to Chapter 21 for  
examples.  
Protected Instructions  
Some instructions of the C167CR which are critical for the functionality of the controller  
are implemented as so-called Protected Instructions. These protected instructions use  
the maximum instruction format of 32 bits for decoding, while the regular instructions  
only use a part of it (e.g. the lower 8 bits) with the other bits providing additional  
information like involved registers. Decoding all 32 bits of a protected doubleword  
instruction increases the security in cases of data distortion during instruction fetching.  
Critical operations like a software reset are therefore only executed if the complete  
instruction is decoded without an error. This enhances the safety and reliability of a  
microcontroller system.

Device Specification

Device Specification  
The device specification describes the electrical parameters of the device. It lists DC  
characteristics like input, output or supply voltages or currents, and AC characteristics  
like timing characteristics and requirements.  
Other than the architecture, the instruction set or the basic functions of the C167CR core  
and its peripherals, these DC and AC characteristics are subject to changes due to  
device improvements or specific derivatives of the standard device.  
Therefore these characteristics are not contained in this manual, but rather provided in  
a separate Data Sheet, which can be updated more frequently.  
Please refer to the current version of the Data Sheet of the respective device for all  
electrical parameters.  
Note: In any case the specific characteristics of a device should be verified, before a new  
design is started. This ensures that the used information is up to date.  
Figure 24-1 shows the pin diagram of the C167CR. It shows the location of the different  
supply and IO pins. A detailed description of all the pins is also found in the Data Sheet.  
Note: Not all alternate functions shown in the figure below are supported by all  
derivatives.  
Please refer to the corresponding descriptions in the data sheets.

Infineon goes for Business Excellence  
“Business excellence means intelligent approaches and clearly  
defined processes, which are both constantly under review and  
ultimately lead to good operating results.  
Better operating results and business excellence mean less  
idleness and wastefulness for all of us, more professional  
success, more accurate information, a better overview and,  
thereby, less frustration and more satisfaction.”
