General Description  
The COP87L88EB/RB Family OTP (One Time program-  
mable) microcontrollers are highly integrated COP8 Fea-  
ture core devices with 16k or 32k memory and advanced  
features including a CAN 2.0B (passive) interface, A/D and  
USART. These multi-chip CMOS devices are suited for appli-  
cations requiring a full featured controller with a CAN inter-  
face, low EMI, and versatile communications interfaces, and  
as pre-production devices for ROM designs. Pin and soft-  
ware compatible 8k ROM versions (COP888EB) are avail-  
able as well as a range of COP8 software and hardware de-  
velopment tools.  
MICROWIRE/PLUS serial I/O, SPI master/slave interface,  
fully buffered USART, 8 bit A/D with 8 channels, two power  
saving HALT/IDLE modes, MIWU, software selectable I/O  
options, low EMI 4.5V to 5.5V operation, program code se-  
curity, and 44/68 pin packages.  
Note: A companion device with CAN interface, less I/O and  
memory, A/D, and PWM timer is the COP87L84BC.

pull up CKI during HALT in crystal clock mode. Both CAN main comparator and the CAN Wakeup comparator need to be disabled.  
Note 5: . HALT and IDLE current specifications assume CAN block comparators are disabled.  
Note 6: Pins G6 and RESET are designed with a high voltage input network. These pins allow input voltages greater than V  
and the pins will have sink current

The maximum bus speed achievable with the CAN interface is a function of crystal frequency, message length and software overhead. The device can support a bus  
speed of up to 1 Mbit/S with a 10 MHz oscillator and 2 byte messages. The 1M bus speed refers to the rate at which protocol and data bits are transferred on the  
bus. Longer messages require slower bus speeds due to the time required for software intervention between data bytes. The device will support a maximum of 125k  
bits/s with eight byte messages and a 10 MHz oscillator.  
For device testing purpose of all AC parameters, V  
will be tested at 0.5*V

Pin Description  
VCC and GND are the power supply pins.  
Port G is an 8-bit port with 5 I/O pins (G0–G5), an input pin  
(G6), and one dedicated output pin (G7). Pins G0–G6 all  
have Schmitt Triggers on their inputs. G7 serves as the dedi-  
cated output pin for the CKO clock output. There are two reg-  
isters associated with the G Port, a data register and a con-  
figuration register. Therefore, each of the 6 I/O bits (G0–G5)  
can be individually configured under software control.  
CKI is the clock input. The clock can come from a crystal os-  
cillator (in conjunction with CKO). See Oscillator Description  
section.  
RESET is the master reset input. See Reset Description sec-  
tion.  
The device contains seven bidirectional 8-bit I/O ports (C, E,  
F, G, L, M, N) where each individual bit may be indepen-  
dently configured as an input (Schmitt trigger inputs on all  
ports), output or TRI-STATE under program control. Three  
data memory address locations are allocated for each of  
these I/O ports. Each I/O port has two associated 8-bit  
memory mapped registers, the CONFIGURATION register  
and the output DATA register. A memory mapped address is  
also reserved for the input pins of each I/O port. (See the  
memory map for the various addresses associated with the  
I/O ports.) Figure 5 shows the I/O port configurations for the  
device. The DATA and CONFIGURATION registers allow for  
each port bit to be individually configured under software  
control as shown below:  
Since G6 is an input only pin and G7 is the dedicated CKO  
clock output pin the associated bits in the data and configu-  
ration registers for G6 and G7 are used for special purpose  
functions as outlined below. Reading the G6 and G7 data  
bits will return zeroes.  
Note that the chip will be placed in the HALT mode by wirting  
a ’’1” to bit 7 of the Port G Data Register. Similarly the chip  
will be placed in the IDLE mode by writing a “1” to bit 6 of the

Port G has the following dedicated function:

Port L and M only have one (1) interrupt vector.  
Port M is a bidirectional I/O, it may be configured in software  
as Hi-Z input, weak pull-up, or push-pull output. These pins  
may be used as general purpose input/output pins or for se-  
lected altlernate functions.  
Port M pins have optional alternate functions. Each pin  
(M0–M5) has been assigned an alternate data, configura-  
tion, or wakeup source. If the respective alternate function is  
selected the content of the associated bits in the configura-  
tion and/or data register are ignored. If an alternate wakeup  
source is selected the input level at the respective pin will be  
ignored for the purpose of triggering a wakeup event, how-  
ever it will still be possible to read that pin by accessing the  
input register. The SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) block, for  
example, uses four of the Port M pins to automatically re-  
configure its MISO (Master Input, Slave Output), MOSI  
(Master Output, Slave Input), SCK (Serial Clock) and Slave-  
Select pins as inputs or outputs, depending on whether the  
interface has been configured as a Master or Slave. When  
the SPI interface is disabled those pins are available as gen-  
eral purpose I/O pins configurable by user software writing to  
the associated data and configuration bits. The CAN inter-  
face on the device makes use of one of the Port M’s alter-  
nate wake-ups, to trigger a wakeup if such a condition has  
been detected on the CAN’s dedicated receive pins.

Functional Description  
The architecture of the device utilizes a modified Harvard ar-  
chitecture. With the Harvard architecture, the control store  
program memory (ROM) is separated from the data store  
memory (RAM). Both ROM and RAM have their own sepa-  
rate addressing space with separate address buses. The ar-  
chitecture, though based on Harvard architecture, permits  
transfer of data from ROM to RAM.  
Ports C, E, F and N are general-purpose, bidirectional I/O  
ports.  
Any device package that has Port C, E, F, M, N but has fewer  
than eight pins, contains unbonded, floating pads internally  
on the chip. For these types of devices, the software should  
write a 1 to the configuration register bits corresponding to  
the non-existent port pins. This configures the port bits as  
outputs, thereby reducing leakage current of the device.  
CPU REGISTERS  
The CPU can do an 8-bit addition, subtraction, logical or shift  
operation in one instruction (tc) cycle time.  
Port N is an 8-bit wide port with alternate function capability  
used for extending the slave select (SS) lines of the on SPI  
interface. The SPI expander block provides mutually exclu-  
sive slave select extension signals (ESS0 to ESS7) accord-  
ing to the state of the SS line and specific contents of the SPI  
shift register. These slave select extension lines can be  
routed to the Port N I/O pins by enabling the alternate func-  
tion of the port in the PORTNX register. If enabled, the inter-  
nal signal on the ESSx line causes the ports state to change  
exactly like a change to the PORTND register. It is the user’s  
responsibility to switch the port to an output when enabling  
the alternate function.  
There are five CPU registers:  
A is the 8-bit Accumulator Register  
PC is the 15-bit Program Counter Register  
PU is the upper 7 bits of the program counter (PC)  
PL is the lower 8 bits of the program counter (PC)  
B is an 8-bit RAM address pointer, which can be optionally  
post auto incremented or decremented.  
X is an 8-bit alternate RAM address pointer, which can be  
optionally post auto incremented or decremented.  
SP is the 8-bit stack pointer, which points to the subroutine/  
interrupt stack (in RAM). The SP is initialized to RAM ad-  
dress 02F with reset.  
Port N has the following alternate pin functions:  
N7 ESS7  
N6 ESS6  
N5 ESS5  
N4 ESS4  
N3 ESS3  
N2 ESS2  
N1 ESS1  
N0 ESS0  
All the CPU registers are memory mapped with the excep-  
tion of the Accumulator (A) and the Program Counter (PC).  
PROGRAM MEMORY  
Program memory for the device consists of 8 or 32 kbytes of  
OTP EPROM. These bytes may hold program instructions or  
constant data (data tables for the LAID instruction, jump vec-  
tors for the JID instruction and interrupt vectors for the VIS  
instruction). The program memory is addressed by the 15-bit  
program counter (PC). All interrupts in the device vector to  
program memory location 0FF Hex.  
CAN pins: For the on-chip CAN interface this device has five  
dedicated pins with the following features:  
VREF  
Rx0  
RX1  
Tx0  
On-chip reference voltage with the value of VCC/2  
CAN receive data input pin.  
The device can be configured to inhibit external reads of the  
program memory. This is done by programming the Security  
Byte.  
CAN receive data input pin.  
CAN transmit data output pin. This pin may be put in  
the TRI-STATE mode with the TXEN0 bit in the CAN  
Bus control register.  
SECURITY FEATURE  
The program memory array has an associate Security Byte  
that is located outside of the program address range. This  
byte can be addressed only from programming mode by a  
programmer tool.  
Tx1  
CAN transmit data output pin. This pin may be put in  
the TRI-STATE mode with the TXEN1 bit in the CAN  
Bus control register.  
Security is an optional feature and can only be asserted after  
the memory array has been programmed and verified. A se-  
cured part will read all 00(hex) by a programmer. The part  
will fail Blank Check and will fail Verify operations. A Read  
operation will fill the programmer’s memory with 00(hex).  
The Security byte itself is always readable with value of  
00(hex) if unsecure and FF(hex) if secure.  
ALTERNATE PORT FUNCTIONS  
Many general-purpose pins have alternate functions. The  
software can program each pin to be used either for a  
general-purpose or for a specific function. The chip hardware  
determines which of the pins have alternate functions, and  
what those functions are. This section lists the alternate  
functions available on each of the pins.  
DATA MEMORY  
Port D is an 8-bit output port that is preset high when RESET  
goes low. The user can tie two or more port D outputs (ex-  
cept D2) together in order to get a higher drive.  
The data memory address space includes the on-chip RAM  
and data registers, the I/O registers (Configuration, Data and  
Pin), the control registers, the MICROWIRE/PLUS SIO shift  
register, and the various registers, and counters associated  
Note: Care must be exercised with D2 pin operation. At RESET, the external  
loads on this pin must ensure that the output voltages stay above 0.8  
V
to prevent the chip from entering special modes. Also keep the ex-

“error-active” state and waits until the user’s software  
sets either one or both of the TXEN0, TXEN1 bits to  
“1”. After that, the device will not start transmission or  
reception of a frame util eleven consecutive “reces-  
sive” (undriven) bits have been received. This is done  
to ensure that the output drivers are not enamble dur-  
ing an active message on the bus.  
Functional Description (Continued)  
with the timers (with the exception of the IDLE timer). Data  
memory is addressed directly by the instruction or indirectly  
by the B, X and SP pointers.  
The device has 192 bytes of RAM. Sixteen bytes of RAM are  
mapped as “registers” at addresses 0F0 to 0FF Hex. These  
registers can be loaded immediately, and also decremented  
and tested with the DRSZ (decrement register and skip if  
zero) instruction. The memory pointer registers X, SP, and B  
are memory mapped into this space at address locations  
0FC to 0FE Hex respectively, with the other registers (other  
than reserved register 0FF) being available for general us-  
age.

WATCHDOG: The device comes out of reset with both the  
WATCHDOG logic and the Clock Monitor  
detector armed, with the WATCHDOG ser-  
vice window bits set and the Clock Monitor  
bit set. The WATCHDOG and Clock Monitor  
circuits are inhibited during reset. The  
WATCHDOG service window bits being ini-  
tialized high default to the maximum  
WATCHDOG service window of 64k tc clock  
cycles. The Clock Monitor bit being initial-  
ized high will cause a Clock Monitor bit be-  
ing initialized high will cause a Clock Moni-  
tor error following reset if the clock has not  
reached the minimum specified frequency  
at the termination of reset. A Clock Monitor  
error will cause an active low error output on  
pin G1. This error output will continue until  
16 tc–32 tc clock cycles following the clock  
frequency reaching the minimum specified  
value, at which time the G1 output will enter  
the TRI-STATE mode.  
The instruction set permits any bit in memory to be set, reset  
or tested. All I/O and registers (except A and PC) are  
memory mapped; therefore I/O bits and register bits can be  
directly and individually set, reset and tested. The accumula-  
tor (A) bits can also be directly and individually tested.  
Note: RAM contents are undefined upon power-up.  
RESET  
The RESET input when pulled low initializes the microcon-  
troller. Initialization will occur whenever the RESET input is  
pulled low. Upon initialization, the data and configuration  
registers for Ports L and G, are cleared, resulting in these  
Ports being initialized to the TRI-STATE mode. Port D is ini-  
tialized high with RESET. The PC, CNTRL, and INCTRL  
control registers are cleared. The Multi-Input Wakeup regis-  
ters WKEN, WKEDG, and WKPND are cleared. The Stack  
Pointer, SP, is initialized to 06F Hex.  
The following initializations occur with RESET:

The RESET signal goes directly to the  
HALT latch to restart a halted chip.

Timers  
The device contains a very versatile set of timers (T0, T1 and  
T2). All timers and associated autoreload/capture registers  
power up containing random data.  
Bits 11 through 15 of the ITMR register can be selected for  
triggering the IDLE Timer interrupt. Each time the selected  
bit underflows (every 4k, 8k, 16k, 32k or 64k instruction  
cycles), the IDLE Timer interrupt pending bit T0PND is set,  
thus generating an interrupt (if enabled), and bit 6 of the Port  
G data register is reset, thus causing an exit from the IDLE  
mode if the device is in that mode.  
TIMER T0 (IDLE TIMER)  
The device supports applications that require maintaining  
real time and low power with the IDLE mode. This IDLE  
mode support is furnished by the IDLE timer T0, which is a  
16-bit timer. The Timer T0 runs continuously at the fixed rate  
of the instruction cycle clock, tc. The user cannot read or  
write to the IDLE Timer T0, which is a count down timer.  
In order for an interrupt to be generated, the IDLE Timer in-  
terrupt enable bit T0EN must be set, and the GIE (Global In-  
terrupt Enable) bit must also be set. The T0PND flag and  
T0EN bit are bits 5 and 4 of the ICNTRL register, respec-  
tively. The interrupt can be used for any purpose. Typically, it  
is used to perform a task upon exit from the IDLE mode. For  
more information on the IDLE mode, refer to the Power Save  
Modes section.  
The Timer T0 supports the following functions:  
Exit out of the Idle Mode (See Idle Mode description)  
WATCHDOG logic (See WATCHDOG description)  
Start up delay out of the HALT mode

FIGURE 8. Functional Block Diagram for Idle Timer T0  
The Idle Timer period is selected by bits 0–2 of the ITMR  
register Bits 3–7 of the ITMR Register are reserved and

TIMER T1 and TIMER T2  
The device has a set of three powerful timer/counter blocks,  
T1 and T2. The associated features and functioning of a  
timer block are described by referring to the timer block Tx.  
Since the three timer blocks, T1 and T2 are identical, all  
comments are equally applicable to either of the three timer  
blocks.

Each timer block consists of a 16-bit timer, Tx, and two sup-

Each timer block has two pins associated with it, TxA and  
TxB. The pin TxA supports I/O required by the timer block,  
while the pin TxB is an input to the timer block. The powerful  
and flexible timer block allows the device to easily perform all  
timer functions with minimal software overhead. The timer  
block has three operating modes: Processor Independent  
PWM mode, External Event Counter mode, and Input Cap-  
ture mode.

Mode 1. Processor Independent PWM Mode  
The ITMR register is cleared on Reset and the Idle Timer pe-  
riod is reset to 4,096 instruction cycles.  
As the name suggests, this mode allows the device to gen-  
erate a PWM signal with very minimal user intervention.  
Any time the IDLE Timer period is changed there is the pos-  
sibility of generating a spurious IDLE Timer interrupt by set-  
ting the T0PND bit. The user is advised to disable IDLE  
Timer interrupts prior to changing the value of the ITSEL bits  
of the ITMR Register and then clear the T0PND bit before at-  
tempting to synchronize operation to the IDLE Timer.  
The user only has to define the parameters of the PWM sig-  
nal (ON time and OFF time). Once begun, the timer block will  
continuously generate the PWM signal completely indepen-

dent of the microcontroller. The user software services the  
timer block only when the PWM parameters require updat-  
ing.  
In this mode the input pin TxB can be used as an indepen-  
dent positive edge sensitive interrupt input if the TxENB con-  
trol flag is set. The occurrence of the positive edge on the  
TxB input pin is latched to the TxPNDB flag.  
In this mode the timer Tx counts down at a fixed rate of tc.  
Upon every underflow the timer is alternately reloaded with  
the contents of supporting registers, RxA and RxB. The very  
first underflow of the timer causes the timer to reload from  
the register RxA. Subsequent underflows cause the timer to  
be reloaded from the registers alternately beginning with the  
register RxB.  
Figure 10 shows a block diagram of the timer in External  
Event Counter mode.  
The Tx Timer control bits, TxC3, TxC2 and TxC1 set up the

being used as the counter input clock.  
FIGURE 10. Timer in External Event Counter Mode  
Mode 3. Input Capture Mode  
The device can precisely measure external frequencies or  
time external events by placing the timer block, Tx, in the in-  
put capture mode.  
DS100044-10  
FIGURE 9. Timer in PWM Mode  
In this mode, the timer Tx is constantly running at the fixed tc  
rate. The two registers, RxA and RxB, act as capture regis-  
ters. Each register acts in conjunction with a pin. The register  
RxA acts in conjunction with the TxA pin and the register RxB  
acts in conjunction with the TxB pin.  
The underflows can be programmed to toggle the TxA output  
pin. The underflows can also be programmed to generate in-  
terrupts.  
Underflows from the timer are alternately latched into two  
pending flags, TxPNDA and TxPNDB. The user must reset  
these pending flags under software control. Two control en-  
able flags, TxENA and TxENB, allow the interrupts from the  
timer underflow to be enabled or disabled. Setting the timer  
enable flag TxENA will cause an interrupt when a timer un-  
derflow causes the RxA register to be reloaded into the timer.  
Setting the timer enable flag TxENB will cause an interrupt  
when a timer underflow causes the RxB register to be re-  
loaded into the timer. Resetting the timer enable flags will  
disable the associated interrupts.  
The timer value gets copied over into the register when a  
trigger event occurs on its corresponding pin. Control bits,  
TxC3, TxC2 and TxC1, allow the trigger events to be speci-  
fied either as a positive or a negative edge. The trigger con-  
dition for each input pin can be specified independently.  
The trigger conditions can also be programmed to generate  
interrupts. The occurrence of the specified trigger condition  
on the TxA and TxB pins will be respectively latched into the  
pending flags, TxPNDA and TxPNDB. The control flag  
TxENA allows the interrupt on TxA to be either enabled or  
disabled. Setting the TxENA flag enables interrupts to be  
generated when the selected trigger condition occurs on the  
TxA pin. Similarly, the flag TxENB controls the interrupts  
from the TxB pin.  
Either or both of the timer underflow interrupts may be en-  
abled. This gives the user the flexibility of interrupting once  
per PWM period on either the rising or falling edge of the  
PWM output. Alternatively, the user may choose to interrupt  
on both edges of the PWM output.  
Underflows from the timer can also be programmed to gen-  
erate interrupts. Underflows are latched into the timer TxC0  
pending flag (the TxC0 control bit serves as the timer under-  
flow interrupt pending flag in the Input Capture mode). Con-  
sequently, the TxC0 control bit should be reset when enter-  
ing the Input Capture mode. The timer underflow interrupt is  
enabled with the TxENA control flag. When a TxA interrupt  
occurs in the Input Capture mode, the user must check both  
whether a TxA input capture or a timer underflow (or both)  
caused the interrupt.  
Mode 2. External Event Counter Mode  
This mode is quite similar to the processor independent  
PWM mode described above. The main difference is that the  
timer, Tx, is clocked by the input signal from the TxA pin. The  
Tx timer control bits, TxC3, TxC2 and TxC1 allow the timer to  
be clocked either on a positive or negative edge from the

In order to reduce the device overall current consumption  
in HALT/IDLE mode a two step power save mechanism is  
implemented on the device:  
Power Save Modes  
The device offer the user two power save modes of opera-  
tion: HALT and IDLE. In the HALT mode, all microcontrol-  
ler activities are stopped. In the IDLE mode, the on-board  
oscillator circuitry and timer T0 are active but all other mi-  
crocontroller activities are stopped. In either mode, all on-  
board RAM, registers, I/O states, and timers (with the ex-  
ception of T0) are unaltered.  
Step 1: Disable main receive comparator. This is done  
by resetting both the TxEN0 and TxEN1 bits in  
the CBUS register. Note: These bits should al-  
ways be reset before entering HALT/IDLE mode  
to allow proper resynchronization to the CAN  
bus after exiting HALT/IDLE mode.  
Step 2: Disable the CAN wake-up comparators, this is  
done by resetting bit 7 in the port-m wakeup en-  
able register (MWKEN) a transition on the CAN  
bus will then not wake the device up.  
HALT MODE  
The device is placed in the HALT mode by writing a ’’1” to  
the HALT flag (G7 data bit). All microcontroller activities,  
including the clock, and timers, are stopped. In the HALT  
mode, the power requirements of the device are minimal  
and the applied voltage (VCC) may be decreased to Vr  
(Vr = 2.0V) without altering the state of the machine.  
Note: If both the main receive comparator and the wake-up comparator  
are disabled the on chip CAN voltage reference is also disabled.  
The CAN-V  
output is then High-Z

The device supports two different ways of exiting the HALT  
mode. The first method of exiting the HALT mode is with the  
Multi-Input Wakeup feature on the L & M port. The second  
method of exiting the HALT mode is by pulling the RESET  
pin low.  
As with the HALT mode, the device can be returned to nor-  
mal operation with a reset, or with a Multi-Input Wakeup from  
the Port L or CAN Interface. Alternately, the microcontroller  
resumes normal operation from the IDLE mode when the  
thirteenth bit (representing 4.096 ms at internal clock fre-  
quency of 1 MHz, tc = 1 µs) of the IDLE Timer toggles.  
Since a crystal or ceramic resonator may be selected as the  
oscillator, the Wakeup signal is not allowed to start the chip  
running immediately since crystal oscillators and ceramic  
resonators have a delayed start up time to reach full ampli-  
tude and frequency stability. The IDLE timer is used to gen-  
erate a fixed delay to ensure that the oscillator has indeed  
stabilized before allowing instruction execution. In this case,  
upon detecting a valid Wakeup signal, only the oscillator cir-  
cuitry is enabled. The IDLE timer is loaded with a value of  
256 and is clocked with the tc instruction cycle clock. The tc  
clock is derived by dividing the oscillator clock down by a fac-  
tor of 10. The Schmitt trigger following the CKI inverter on  
the chip ensures that the IDLE timer is clocked only when the  
oscillator has a sufficiently large amplitude to meet the  
Schmitt trigger specifications. This Schmitt trigger is not part  
of the oscillator closed loop. The start-up time-out from the  
IDLE timer enables the clock signals to be routed to the rest  
of the chip.  
This toggle condition of the thirteenth bit of the IDLE Timer  
T0 is latched into the T0PND pending flag.  
The user has the option of being interrupted with a transition  
on the thirteenth bit of the IDLE Timer T0. The interrupt can  
be enabled or disabled via the T0EN control bit. Setting the  
T0EN flag enables the interrupt and vice versa.  
The user can enter the IDLE mode with the Timer T0 inter-  
rupt enabled. In this case, when the T0PND bit gets set, the  
device will first execute the Timer T0 interrupt service routine  
and then return to the instruciton following the “Enter Idle  
Mode” instruction.  
Alternatively, the user can enter the IDLE mode with the  
IDLE Timer T0 interrupt disabled. In this case, the device will  
resume normal operation with the instruction immediately  
following the “Enter IDLE Mode” instruction.  
Note: It is necessary to program two NOP instructions following both the set  
HALT mode and set IDLE mode instructions. These NOP instructions  
are necessary to allow clock resynchronization following the HALT or  
IDLE modes.  
The device has two mask options associated with the HALT  
mode. The first mask option enables the HALT mode feature,  
while the second mask option disables the HALT mode. With  
the HALT mode enable mask option, the device will enter  
and exit the HALT mode as described above. With the HALT  
disable mask option, the device cannot be placed in the  
HALT mode (writing a “1” to the HALT flag will have to effect).  
Multi-Input Wakeup  
The Multi-Input Wakeup feature is used to return (wakeup)  
the device from either the HALT or IDLE modes. Alternately,  
the Multi-Input Wakeup/Interrupt feature may also be used to  
generate up to 7 edge selectable external interrupts.  
IDLE MODE  
Note: The following description is for both the Port L and the M port. When  
the document refers to the registers WKEGD, WKEN or WKPND, the  
user will have to put either M (for M port) or L (for port) in front of the  
register, i.e., LWKEN (Port L WKEN), MWKEN (Port M WKEN).  
The device is placed in the IDLE mode by writing a “1” to the  
IDLE flag (G6 data bit). In this mode, all activity, except the  
associated on-board oscillator circuitry, ad the IDLE Timer  
T0, is stopped. The power supply requirements of the micro-  
controller in this mode of operation are typically around 30%  
of normal power requirement of the microcontroller.  
Figures 12, 13 shows the Multi-Input Wakeup logic for the  
microcontroller. The Multi-Input Wakeup feature utilizes the L  
Port. The user selects which particular Port L bit (or combi-  
www.national.com  
16  
An example may serve to clarify this procedure. Suppose we  
wish to change the edge select from positive (low going high)  
to negative (high going low) for Port L bit 5, where bit 5 has  
previously been enabled for an input interrupt. The program  
would be as follows:  
Multi-Input Wakeup (Continued)  
nation of Port L bits) will cause the device to exit the HALT or  
IDLE modes. The selection is done through the Reg: WKEN.  
The Reg: WKEN is an 8-bit read/write register, which con-  
tains a control bit for every Port L bit. Setting a particular  
WKEN bit enables a Wakeup from the associated Port L pin.  
RBIT 5, WKEN  
;Disable MIWU  
SBIT 5, WKEDG ;Change edge polarity  
RBIT 5, WKPND ;Reset pending flag  
The user can select whether the trigger condition on the se-  
lected Port L pin is going to be either a positive edge (low to  
high transition) or a negative edge (high to low transition).  
This selection is made via the Reg: WKEDG, which is an  
8-bit control register with a bit assigned to each Port L pin.  
Setting the control bit will select the trigger condition to be a  
negative edge on that particular Port L pin. Resetting the bit  
selects the trigger condition to be a positive edge. Changing  
an edge select entails several steps in order to avoid a  
pseudo Wakeup condition as a result of the edge change.  
First, the associated WKEN bit should be reset, followed by  
the edge select change in WKEDG. Next, the associated  
WKPND bit should be cleared, followed by the associated  
WKEN bit being re-enabled.  
SBIT 5, WKEN  
;Enable MIWU  
If the Port L bits have been used as outputs and then  
changed to inputs with Multi-Input Wakeup/Interrupt, a safety  
procedure should also be followed to avoid inherited pseudo  
wakeup conditions. After the selected Port L bits have been  
changed from output to input but before the associated  
WKEN bits are enabled, the associated edge select bits in  
WKEDG should be set or reset for the desired edge selects,  
followed by the assoicated WKPND bits being cleared.  
DS100044-13  
FIGURE 12. Port M Multi-Input Wake-up Logic  
This same procedure should be used following reset, since  
the Port L inputs are left floating as a result of reset. The oc-  
currence of the selected trigger condition for Multi-Input  
Wakeup is latched to a pending register called WKPND. The  
respective bits of the WKPND register will be set on the oc-  
currence of the selected trigger edge on the corresponding  
Port L and Port M pin. The user has the responsibility of  
clearing these pending flags. Since WKPND is a pending  
register for the occurrence of selected wakeup conditions,  
the device will not enter the HALT mode if any wakeup bit is  
both enabled and pending. Consequently, the user has the  
responsibility of clearing the pending flags before attempting  
to enter the HALT mode.  
The WKEN, WKPND and WKEDG are all read/write regis-  
ters, and are cleared at reset.  
PORT L INTERRUPTS  
Port L provides the user with additional eight fully selectable,  
edge sensitive interrupts which are all vectored into the  
same service subroutine.  
The interrupt from Port L shares logic with the wake up cir-  
cuitry. The register WKEN allows interrupts from Port L to be  
individually enabled or disabled. The register WKEDG speci-  
fies the trigger condition to be either a positive or a negative  
edge. Finally, the register WKPND latches in the pending  
trigger conditions.

nite start up time. The IDLE Timer (T0) generates a fixed de-  
lay to ensure that the oscillator has indeed stabilized before  
allowing the device to execute instructions. In this case,  
upon detecting a valid Wakeup signal, only the oscillator cir-  
cuitry and the IDLE Timer T0 are enabled. The IDLE Timer is

The GIE (global interrupt enable) bit enables the interrupt  
function. A control flag, LPEN, functions as a global interrupt  
enable for Port L interrupts. Setting the LPEN flag will enable  
interrupts and vice versa. A separate global pending flag is  
not needed since the register WKPND is adequate.  
loaded with a value of 256 and is clocked from the t  
c instruc-  
tion cycle clock. The tc clock is derived by dividing down the  
oscillator clock by a factor of 10. A Schmitt trigger following  
the CKI on-chip inverter ensures that the IDLE timer is  
clocked only when the oscillator has a sufficiently large am-  
plitude to meet the Schmitt trigger specifications. This  
Schmitt trigger is not part of the oscillator closed loop. The  
start-up time-out from the IDLE timer enables the clock sig-  
nals to be routed to the rest of the chip.  
Since Port L is also used for waking the device out of the  
HALT or IDLE modes, the user can elect to exit the HALT or  
IDLE modes either with or without the interrupt enabled. If he  
elects to disable the interrupt, then the device will restart ex-  
ecution from the instruction immediately following the in-  
struction that placed the microcontroller in the HALT or IDLE  
modes. In the other case, the device will first execute the in-  
terrupt service routine and then revert to normal operation.  
The Wakeup signal will not start the chip running immedi-  
ately since crystal oscillators or ceramic resonators have a fi-

struction cycle of the instruction following the enter HALT or  
IDLE mode instruction). In the other case, the device finishes  
the instruction which was being executed when the part was  
stopped (the NOP(Note *NO TARGET FOR FNXref  
NS9529*) instruction following the enter HALT or IDLE mode  
instruction), and then branches to the interrupt service rou-  
tine. The device then reverts to normal operation.  
Port M provides the user with seven fully selectable, edge  
sensitive interrupts which are all vectored into the same ser-  
vice subroutine.  
The interrupt from Port M shares logic with the wake up cir-  
cuitry. The MWKEN register allows interrupts from Port M to  
be individually enabled or disabled. The MWKEDG register  
specifies the trigger condition to be either a positive or a  
negative edge. The MWKPND register latches in the pend-  
ing trigger conditions.  
Note 16: The user must place two NOPs after an enter HALT or IDLE mode  
instruction.  
To prevent erroneous clearing of the SPI receive FIFO when  
entering HALT/IDLE mode, the user needs to enable the  
MIWU on port M3. (SS) by setting bit 3 in the MWKEN reg-  
ister.  
The LPEN control flag in the ICNTRL register functions as a  
global interrupt enable for Port M interrupts. Setting the  
LPEN flag enables interrupts. Note that the GIE bit in the  
PSW register must also be set to enable these Port L inter-  
rupts. A global pending flag is not needed since each pin has  
a corresponding pending flag in the MWKPND register.  
CAN RECEIVE WAKEUP  
The CAN Receive Wakeup source can be enabled or dis-  
abled. There is no specific enable bit for the CAN Wakeup  
feature. Although the wakeup feature on pins L0..17 and  
M0..M7 can be programmed to generate an interrupt (Port L  
or Port M interrupt), no interrupt is generated upon a CAN re-  
Since Port M is also used for exiting the device from the  
HALT or IDLE mode, the user can elect to exit the HALT or  
IDLE mode either with or without the interrupt enabled. If the  
user elects to disable the interrupt, then the device restarts  
execution from the point at which it was stopped (first in-

Multi-Input Wakeup (Continued)  
CAN Interface Block  
This device supports applications which require a low speed  
CAN interface. It is designed to be programmed with two  
transmit and two receive registers. The user’s program may  
check the status bytes in order to get information of the bus  
state and the received or transmitted messages. The device  
has the capability to generate an interrupt as soon as one  
byte has been transmitted or received. Care must be taken if  
more than two bytes in a message frame are to be  
transmitted/received. In this case the user’s program must  
poll the transmit buffer empty (TBE)/receive buffer full (RBF)  
bits or enable their respective interrupts and perform a data  
exchange between the user data and the Tx/Rx registers.  
ceive wakeup condition. The CAN block has it’s own, dedi-  
cated receiver interrupt upon receive buffer full (see CAN  
Section).  
CAN Wake-Up:  
The CAN interface can be programmed to wake the device  
from HALT/IDLE mode. This is done by setting bit 7 in the  
Port M wake-up enable register (MWKEN). A transition on  
the bus will cause the bit 7 of the Port M wake-up pending  
(MWKPND) to be set and thereby waking up the device. The  
frame on the CAN bus will be lost. The MWEDG (m port  
wake-up edge) register bit 7 can be programmed high or low  
(high will wake-up on the first falling edge on Rx0).  
Fully automatic transmission on error is supported for mes-  
sages not longer than two bytes. Messages which are longer  
than two bytes have to be processed by software.  
Resetting bit 7 in the MWKEN will disable the CAN wake-up.  
The following sequence should be executed before entering  
HALT/IDLE mode:  
The interface is compatible with CAN Specification 2.0 part  
B, without the capability to receive/transmit extended  
frames. Extended frames on the bus are checked and ac-  
knowledged according to the CAN specification.

The maximum bus speed achievable with the CAN interface  
is a function of crystal frequency, message length and soft-  
ware overhead. The device can support a bus speed of up to  
1 Mbit/s with a 10 MHz oscillator and 2 byte messages. The  
1 Mbit/s bus speed refers to the rate at which protocol and  
data bits are transferred on the bus. Longer messages re-  
quire slower bus speeds due to the time required for soft-  
ware intervention between data bytes. The device will sup-  
port a maximum of 125k bit/s with eight byte messages and  
a 10 MHz oscillator.

After the device woke-up the CBUS bits TxEN0 and/or  
TxEN1 need be set to allow synchronization on the bus and  
to enable transmission/reception of CAN frames.

FIGURE 14. CAN Interface Block Diagram  
Transceive Logic (TCL)  
Functional Block Description of  
the CAN Interface  
The TCL is a state machine which incorporates the bit stuff  
logic and controls the output drivers, CRC logic and the  
Rx/Tx shift registers. It also controls the synchronization to  
the bus with the CAN clock signal generated by the BTL.  
Interface Management Logic (IML)  
The IML executes the CPU’s transmission and reception  
commands and controls the data transfer between CPU,  
Rx/Tx and CAN registers. It provides the CAN Interface with  
Rx/Tx data from the memory mapped Register Block. It also  
sets and resets the CAN status information and generates  
interrupts to the CPU.  
Error Management Logic (EML)  
The EML is responsible for the fault confinement of the CAN  
protocol. It is also responsible for changing the error  
counters, setting the appropriate error flag bits and interrupts  
and changing the error status (passive, active and bus off).  
Bit Stream Processor (BSP)  
Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)  
Generator and Register  
The BSP is a sequencer controlling the data stream between  
The Interface Management Logic (parallel data) and the bus  
line (serial data). It controls the transceive logic with regard  
to reception and arbitration, and creates error signals ac-  
cording to the bus specification.  
The CRC Generator consists of a 15-bit shift register and the  
logic required to generate the checksum of the destuffed bit-  
stream. It informs the EML about the result of a receiver  
checksum.  
The checksum is generated by the polynomial:  
χ15 + χ14 + χ10 + χ8 + χ7 + χ4 + χ3 − 1

It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the time between  
setting TBE and a reload of TxD2 is longer than the length of  
phase segment 2 as indicated in the following equation:  
Functional Block Description of  
the CAN Interface (Continued)  
Receive/Transmit (Rx/Tx) Registers  
The Rx/Tx registers are 8-bit shift registers controlled by the  
TCL and the BSP. They are loaded or read by the Interface  
Management Logic, which holds the data to be transmitted  
or the data that was received.  
Table 3 shows examples of the minimum required tLOAD for  
different CSCAL settings based on a clock frequency of  
10 MHz. Lower clock speeds require recalculation of the  
CAN bit rate and the mimimum tLOAD  
.
Bit Time Logic (BTL)  
The bit time logic divider divides the CKI input clock by the  
value defined in the CAN prescaler (CSCAL) and bus timing  
register (CTIM). The resultig bit time (tcan) can be computed  
by the formula:

Bus Timing Considerations  
100  
The internal architecture of the CAN interface has been op-  
timized to allow fast software response times within mes-  
sages of more than two data bytes. The TBE (Transmit  
Buffer Empty) bit is set on the last bit of odd data bytes when  
CAN internal sample points are high.

set to zero.  
Register Block  
The register block consists of fifteen 8-bit registers which are  
described in more detail in the following paragraphs.  
Note: The contents of the receiver related registers RxD1, RxD2, RDLC,  
RIDH and RTSTAT are only changed if a received frame passes the

The RID10...RID4 bits are the upper 7 bits of the eleven bit  
long Receive Identifier. If the Receive Identifier Acceptance  
Filter (RIAF) bit (see CBUS register) is set to zero, bits 4 to  
10 of the received identifier are compared with the mask bits  
of RID4..RID10. If the corresponding bits match, the mes-

per bit time for phase segment 1 and phase segment 2. The

Bus synchronization of the device is done in the following  
way:  
If the output was disabled (TxEN1, TxEN0 = “0”) and either  
TxEN1 or TxEN0, or both are set to 1, the device will not start  
transmission or reception of a frame until eleven consecutive  
“recessive” bits have been received. Resetting the TxEN1  
and TxEN0 bits will disable the output drivers and the CAN  
input comparator. All other CAN related registers and flags  
will be unaffected. It is recommended that the user reset the  
TxEN1 and TxEN0 bits before switching the device into the  
HALT mode (the CAN receive wakeup will still work) in order  
to reduce current consumption and to assure a proper resy-  
chronization to the bus after exiting the HALT mode.  
Bits 1 and 0 are reserved and should be zero.

FMOD  
Fault Confinement Mode select  
Setting the FMOD bit to “0” (default after power on reset) will  
select the Standard Fault Confinement mode. In this mode  
the device goes from “bus off” to “error active” after monitor-  
ing 128*11 recessive bits (including bus idle) on the bus. This  
mode has been implemented for compatibility with existing  
solutions. Setting the FMOD bit to “1” will select the En-  
hanced Fault Confinement mode. In this mode the device  
goes from “bus off” to “error active” after monitoring 128  
“good” messages, as indicated by the reception of 11 con-  
secutive “recessive” bits including the End of Frame,  
whereas the standard mode may time out after 128 x 11 re-  
cessive bits (e.g., bus idle).  
LENGTH OF TIME SEGMENTS (See Figure 28)

The Propagation Segment can be programmed (PPS) to

Phase Segment 1 and Phase Segment 2 are program-

Note: (BTL settings at high speed; PSC = 0) Due to the on-chip delay from  
the rx-pins through the receive comparator (worst case assumption: 3  
clocks delay * 2 (devices on the bus) + 1 tx delay) the user needs to set  
the sample point to (2*3 + 1) i.e., 7 CKI clocks to ensure correct com-  
munication on the bus under all circumstances. With prescaler settings  
of 0 this is a given (i.e., no caution has to be applied).

RIAF Receive identifier acceptance filter bit  
The Node Status bits are read only.  
TERR Transmit Error  
If the RIAF bit is set to zero, bits 4 to 10 of the received iden-  
tifier are compared with the mask bits of RID4..RID10 and if  
the corresponding bits match, the message is accepted. If  
the RIAF bit is set to a one, the filter function is disabled and  
all messages independent of the identifier will be accepted.  
This bit is automatically set when an error occurs during the  
transmission of a frame. TERR can be programmed to gen-  
erate an interrupt by setting the Can Error Interrupt Enable  
bit (CEIE). This bit must be cleared by the user’s software.  
Note: This is used for messages for more than two bytes. If an error occurs  
during the transmission of a frame with more than 2 data bytes, the us-  
er’s software has to handle the correct reloading of the data bytes to  
the TxD registers for retransmission of the frame. For frames with 2 or  
fewer data bytes the interface logic of this chip does an automatic re-  
transmission. Regardless of the number of data bytes, the user’s soft-  
ware must reset this bit if CEIE is enabled. Otherwise a new interrupt  
will be generated immediately after return from the interrupt service  
routine.

This register is read only.  
TBE Transmit Buffer Empty  
If set by the user’s software, this bit enables the transmit and  
receive error interrupts. The interrupt pending flags are  
TERR and RERR. Resetting this bit with a pending error in-  
terrupt will inhibit the interrupt, but will not clear the cause of  
the interrupt (RERR or TERR). If the bit is then set without  
clearing the cause of the interrupt, the interrupt will reoccur.  
This bit is set as soon as the TxD2 register is copied into the  
Rx/Tx shift register, i.e., the 1st data byte of each pair has  
been transmitted. The TBE bit is automatically reset if the  
TxD2 register is written (the user should write a dummy byte  
to the TxD2 register when transmitting an odd number of  
bytes of zero bytes). TBE can be programmed to generate  
an interrupt by setting the Transmit Interrupt Enable bit (TIE).  
When servicing the interrupt the user has to make sure that  
TBE gets cleared by executing a WRITE instruction on the  
TxD2 register, otherwise a new interrupt will be generated  
immediately after return from the interrupt service routine.  
The TBE bit is read only. It is set to 1 upon reset. TBE is also  
set upon completion of transmission of a valid message.  
TIE Transmit Interrupt Enable  
If set by the user’s software, this bit enables the transmit in-  
terrupt. (See TBE and TXPND.) Resetting this bit with a  
pending transmit interrupt will inhibit the interrupt, but will not  
clear the cause of the interrupt. If the bit is then set without  
clearing the cause of the interrupt, the interrupt will reoccur.  
RIE Receive Interrupt Enable  
If set by the user’s software, this bit enables the receive in-  
terrupt or a remote transmission request interrupt (see RBF,  
RFV and RRTR). Resetting this bit with a pending receive in-  
terrupt will inhibit the interrupt, but will not clear the cause of  
the interrupt. If the bit is then set without clearing the cause  
of the interrupt, the interrupt will reoccur.  
TXPND Transmission Pending  
This bit is set as soon as the Transmit Start/Stop (TXSS) bit  
is set by the user. It will stay set until the frame was success-  
fully transmitted, until the transmission was successfully can-  
celed by writing zero to the Transmission Start/Stop bit  
(TXSS), or the device enters the bus-off state. Resetting the  
TXSS bit will only cancel a transmission if the transmission  
of a frame hasn’t been started yet (bus idle) or if arbitration  
has been lost (receiving). If the device has already started  
transmission (won arbitration) the TXPND flag will stay set  
until the transmission is completed, even if the user’s soft-  
ware has requested cancellation of the message. If an error  
occurs during transmission, a requested cancellation may  
occur prior to the begining of retransmission.  
TXSS Transmission Start/Stop  
This bit is set by the user’s software to initiate the transmis-  
sion of a frame. Once this bit is set, a transmission is pend-  
ing, as indicated by the TXPND flag being set. It can be reset  
by software to cancel a pending transmission. Resetting the  
TXSS bit will only cancel a transmission, if the transmission  
of a frame hasn’t been started yet (bus idle), if arbitration has  
been lost (receiving) or if an error occurs during transmis-  
sion. If the device has already started transmission (won ar-  
bitration) the TXPND and TXSS flags will stay set until the  
transmission is completed, even if the user’s software has  
written zero to the TXSS bit. If one or more data bytes are to  
be transmitted, care must be taken by the user, that the  
Transmit Data Register(s) have been loaded before the  
TXSS bit is set. TXSS will be cleared on three conditions  
only: Successful completion of a transmitted message; suc-  
cessful cancellation of a pending transmision; Transition of  
the CAN interface to the bus-off state.  
RRTR Received Remote Transmission Request  
This bit is set when the remote transmission request (RTR)  
bit in a received frame was set. It is automatically reset  
through a read of the RXD1 register.  
To detect RRTR the user can either poll this flag or enable  
the receive interrupt (the reception of a remote transmission  
request will also cause an interrupt if the receive interrupt is  
enabled). If the receive interrupt is enabled, the user should  
check the RRTR flag in the service routine in order to distin-  
guish between a RRTR interrupt and a RBF interrupt. It is the  
responsibility of the user to clear this bit by reading the RXD1  
register, before the next frame is received.  
ROLD Received Overload Frame  
This bit is automatically set when an Overload Frame was  
received on the bus. It is automatically reset through a read  
of the Receive/Transmit Status register. It is the responsibil-  
ity of the user to clear this bit by reading the Receive/  
Transmit Status register, before the next frame is received.  
RORN Receiver Overrun  
DS100044-19  
This bit is automatically set on an overrun of the receive data  
register, i.e., if the user’s program does not maintain the  
RxDn registers when receiving a frame. It is automatically re-  
set through a read of the Receive/Transmit Status register. It  
is the responsibility of the user to clear this bit by reading the  
Receive/Transmit Status register before the next frame is re-  
ceived.  
FIGURE 17. Acceptance Filter Block-Diagram  
Writing a zero to the TXSS bit will request cancellation of a  
pending transmission but TXSS will not be cleared until  
completion of the operation. If an error occurs during trans-  
mission of a frame, the logic will check for cancellation re-  
quests prior to restarting transmission. If zero has been writ-  
ten to TXSS, retransmission will be canceled.  
RFV Received Frame Valid  
This bit is set if the received frame is valid, i.e., after the pen-  
ultimate bit of the End of Frame is received. It is automati-

dow (16 messages). The upper 7 bits can be defined by the  
user in the Receive Identifier High Register to mask out  
groups of messages. If the RIAF bit is set, all messages will  
be received.  
Note: The CAN interface tolerates the extended CAN frame format of 29  
identifier bits and gives an acknowledgment. If an error occurs the re-  
ceive error counter will be increased, and decreased if the frame is  
valid.  
Functional Block Description of

cally reset through a read of the Receive/Transmit Status  
register. It is the responsibility of the user to clear this bit by  
reading the receive/transmit status register (RTSTAT), be-  
fore the next frame is received. RFV will cause a Receive In-  
terrupt if enabled by RIE. The user should be careful to read  
the last data byte (RxD1) of odd length messages (1, 3, 5 or  
7 data bytes) on receipt of RFV. RFV is the only indication  
that the last byte of the message has been received.  
BUS SYNCHRONIZATION DURING OPERATION  
Resetting the TxEN1 and TxEN0 bits in Bus Control Register  
will disable the output drivers and do a resynchronization to  
the bus. All other CAN related registers and flags will be un-  
affected.  
RCV Receive Mode  
This bit is set after the data length code of a message that  
passes the device’s acceptance filter has been received. It is  
automatically reset after the CRC-delimiter of the same  
frame has been received. It indicates to the user’s software  
that arbitration is lost and that data is coming in for that node.  
Bus synchronization of the device is this case is done in the  
following way:  
If the output was disabled (TxEN1, TxEN0 = “0”) and either  
TxEN1 or TxEN0, or both are set to 1, the device will not start  
transmission or reception of a frame until eleven consecutive  
“recessive” bits have been received.  
RBF Receive Buffer Full  
This bit is set if the second Rx data byte was received. It is  
reset automatically, after the RxD1-Register has been read  
by the software. RBF can be programmed to generate an in-  
terrupt by setting the Receive Interrupt Enable bit (RIE).  
When servicing the interrupt, the user has to make sure that  
RBF gets cleared by executing a LD instruction from the  
RxD1 register, otherwise a new interrupt will be generated  
immediately after return from the interrupt service routine.  
The RBF bit is read only.  
A “bus off” condition will also cause the output drivers Tx1  
and Tx0 to be at TRI-STATE (independent of the status of  
TxEN1 and TxEN0). The device will switch from “bus off” to  
“error active” mode as described under the FMOD-bit de-  
scription (see Can Bus Control register). This will ensure that  
the device is synchronized to the bus, before starting to  
transmit or receive.  
For information on bus synchronization and status of the  
CAN related registers after external reset refer to the RESET  
section.

The on-chip voltage reference is a ratiometric reference. For  
electrical characteristics of the voltage reference refer to the  
electrical specifications section.  
This register is read/write.  
For test purposes and to identify the node status, the trans-  
mit error counter, an 8-bit error counter, is mapped into the  
data memory. If the lower seven bits of the counter overflow,  
i.e., TEC7 is set, the device is error passive.  
ANALOG SWITCHES  
Analog switches are used for selecting between Rx0 and  
CAUTION  
VREF and between Rx1 and VREF  
.
To prevent interference with the CAN fault confinement, the  
user must not write to the REC/TEC registers. Both counters  
are automatically updated following the CAN specification.  
Basic CAN Concepts  
The following paragraphs provide a generic overview of the  
basic concepts of the Controller Area Network (CAN) as de-  
scribed in Chapter 4 of ISO/DIS11519-1. Implementation re-  
lated issues of the National Semiconductor device will be  
discussed as well.

Bit 0  
This device will process standard frame format only. Ex-  
tended frame formats will be acknowledged, however the  
data will be discarded. For this reason the description of  
frame formats in the following section will cover only the  
standard frame format.  
This register is read/write.  
ROVL receive error counter overflow  
For test purposes and to identify the node status the receive  
error counter, a 7-bit error counter, is mapped into the data  
memory. If the counter overflows the ROVL bit is set to indi-  
cate that the device is error passive and won’t transmit any  
active error frames. If ROVL is set then the counter is frozen.  
The following section provides some more detail on how the  
device will handle received extended frames:  
If the device’s remote identifier acceptance filter bit (RIAF) is  
set to “1”, extended frame messages will be acknowledged.  
However, the data will be discarded and the device will not  
reply to a remote transmission request received in extended  
frame format. If the device’s RIAF bit is set to “0”, the upper  
7 received ID bits of an extended frame that match the de-  
vice’s receive identifier (RID) acceptance filtler bits, are  
stroed in the device’s RID register. However, the device does  
not reply to an RTR and any data is discarded. The device  
will only acknowledge the message.  
MESSAGE IDENTIFICATION  
a. Transmitted Message  
The user can select all 11 Transmit Identifier Bits to transmit  
any message which fulfills the CAN 2.0, part B spec without  
an extended identifier (see note below). Fully automatic re-  
transmission is supported for messages no longer than 2  
bytes.  
b. Received Messages  
The lower four bits of the Receive Identifier are don’t care,  
i.e., the controller will receive all messages that fit in that win-  
25  
www.national.com  
overwritten by a message with a higher priority. As soon as a  
transmitting module detects another module with a higher  
priority accessing the bus, it stops transmitting its own frame  
and switches to receive mode. For illustration see Figure 18.  
Basic CAN Concepts (Continued)  
MULTI-MASTER PRIORITY BASED BUS ACCESS  
The CAN protocol is message based protocol that allows a  
total of 2032 (= 211 −16) different messages in the standard  
format and 512 million (= 229 −16) different messages in the  
extended frame format.  
AUTOMATIC RETRANSMISSION OF FRAMES  
If a data or remote frame is overwritten by either a higher-  
prioritized data frame, remote frame or an error frame, the  
transmitting module will automatically retransmit it. This de-  
vice will handle the automatic retransmission of up to two  
data bytes automatically. Messages with more than 2 data  
bytes require the user’s software to update the transmit reg-  
isters.  
MULTICAST FRAME TRANSFER BY  
ACCEPTANCE FILTERING  
Every CAN Frame is put on the common bus. Each module  
receives every frame and filters out the frames which are not  
required for the module’s task.  
ERROR DETECTION AND ERROR SIGNALING  
REMOTE DATA REQUEST  
All messages on the bus are checked by each CAN node  
and acknowledge if they are correct. If any node detects an  
error it starts the transmission of an error frame.  
A CAN master module has the ability to set a specific bit  
called the “remote transmission request bit” (RTR) in a  
frame. This causes another module, either another master or  
a slave, to transmit a data frame after the current frame has  
been completed.  
Switching Off Defective Nodes  
There are two error counters, one for transmitted data and  
one for received data, which are incremented, depending on  
the error type, as soon as an error occurs. If either counter  
goes beyond a specific value the node goes to an error state.  
A valid frame causes the error counters to decrease.  
SYSTEM FLEXIBILITY  
Additional modules can be added to an existing network  
without a configuration change. These modules can either  
perform completely new functions requiring new data or pro-  
cess existing data to perform a new function.  
The device can be in one of three states with respect to error  
handling:  
SYSTEM WIDE DATA CONSISTENCY  
Error active  
As the CAN network is message oriented, a message can be  
used like a variable which is automatically updated by the  
controlling processor. If any module cannot process informa-  
tion it can send an overload frame. The device is incapable  
of initiating an overload frame, but will join a overload frame  
initiated by another device as required by CAN specifica-  
tions.  
An error active unit can participate in bus communication  
and sends an active (“dominant”) error flag.  
Error passive  
An error passive unit can participate in bus communica-  
tion. However, if the unit detects an error it is not allowed  
to send an active error flag. The unit sends only a passive  
(“recessive”) error flag.  
Bus off  
NON-DESTRUCTIVE CONTENTION-BASED  
ARBITRATION  
A unit that is “bus off” has the output drivers disabled, i.e., it  
does not participate in any bus activity.  
The CAN protocol allows several transmitting modules to  
start a transmission at the same time as soon as they moni-  
tor the bus to be idle. During the start of transmission every  
node monitors the bus line to detect whether its message is  
(See ERROR MANAGEMENT AND DETECTION for more  
detailed information.)

Frame Formats  
INTRODUCTION  
nodes have to synchronize to the leading edge (first edge af-  
ter the bus was idle) caused by SOF of the node which starts  
transmission first.  
There are basically two different types of frames used in the  
CAN protocol.  
The data transmission frames are: data/remote frame  
The control frames are: error/overload frame  
Note: This device cannot send an overload frame as a result of not being  
able to process all information. However, the device is able to recog-  
nize an overload condition and join overload frames initiated by other  
devices.  
ARBITRATION FIELD  
The arbitration field is composed of the identifier field and the  
RTR (Remote Transmission Request) bit. The value of the  
RTR bit is “dominant” in a data frame and “recessive” in a re-  
mote frame.  
If no message is being transmitted, i.e., the bus is idle, the  
bus is kept at the “recessive” level. Figure 19 and Figure 20  
give an overview of the various CAN frame formats.  
CONTROL FIELD  
The control field consists of six bits. It starts with two bits re-  
served for future expansion followed by the four-bit Data  
Length Code. Receivers must accept all possible combina-  
tions of the two reserved bits. Until the function of these re-  
served bits is defined, the transmitter only sends “0” (domi-  
nant) bits. The first reserved bit (IDE) is actually defined to  
indicate an extended frame with 29 Identifier bits if set to “1”.  
CAN chips must tolerate extended frames, even if they can  
only understand standard frames, to prevent the destruction  
of an extended frames on an existing network.  
DATA AND REMOTE FRAME  
Data frames consist of seven bit fields and remote frames  
consist of six different bit fields:  
1. Start of Frame (SOF)  
2. Arbitration field  
3. Control field (IDE bit, R0 bit, and DLC field)  
4. Data field (not in remote frame)  
5. CRC field  
The Data Length Code indicates the number of bytes in the  
data field. This Data Length Code consists of four bits. The  
data field can be of length zero. The permissible number of  
data bytes for a data frame ranges from 0 to 8.  
6. ACK field  
7. End of Frame (EOF)  
A remote frame has no data field and is used for requesting  
data from other (remote) CAN nodes. Figure 21 shows the  
format of a CAN data frame.  
DATA FIELD  
The Data field consists of the data to be transferred within a  
data frame. It can contain 0 to 8 bytes and each byte con-  
tains 8 bits. A remote frame has no data field.  
FRAME CODING  
Remote and Data Frames are NRZ codes with bit-stuffing in  
every bit field which holds computable information for the in-  
terface, i.e., Start of Frame arbitration field, control field, data  
field (if present) and CRC field.  
CRC FIELD  
The CRC field consists of the CRC sequence followed by the  
CRC delimiter. The CRC sequence is derived by the trans-  
mitter from the modulo 2 division of the preceding bit fields,  
starting with the SOF up to the end of the data field, exclud-  
ing stuff-bits, by the generator polynomial:  
Error and overload frames are NRZ coded without bit stuff-  
ing.  
χ15 + χ14 + χ10 + χ8 + χ7 + χ4 + χ3 + 1  
BIT STUFFING  
After five consecutive bits of the same value, a stuff bit of the  
inverted value is inserted by the transmitter and deleted by  
the receiver.  
The remainder of this division is the CRC sequence transmit-  
ted over the bus. On the receiver side the module divides all  
bit fields up to the CRC delimiter, excluding stuff-bits, and  
checks if the result is zero. This will then be interpreted as a  
valid CRC. After the CRC sequence a single “recessive” bit  
is transmitted as the CRC delimiter.

START OF FRAME (SOF)  
The Start of Frame indicates the beginning of data and re-  
mote frames. It consists of a single “dominant” bit. A node is  
only allowed to start transmission when the bus is idle. All

A remote frame is identical to a data frame, except that the RTR bit is “recessive”, and there is no data field.  
IDE = Identifier Extension Bit  
The IDE bit in the standard format is transmitted “dominant”, whereas in the extended format the IDE bit is “recessive” and the id is expanded to 29 bits.

ACK FIELD  
The ACK field is two bits long and contains the ACK slot and  
the ACK delimiter. The ACK slot is filled with a “recessive” bit  
by the transmitter. This bit is overwritten with a “dominant” bit  
by every receiver that has received a correct CRC se-  
quence. The second bit of the ACK field is a “recessive” bit  
called the acknowledge delimiter. As a consequence the ac-  
knowledge flag of a valid frame is surrounded by two “reces-  
sive” bits, the CRC-delimiter and the ACK delimiter.  
The Error Frame consists of two bit fields: the error flag and  
the error delimiter. The error field is built up from the various  
error flags of the different nodes. Therefore, its length may  
vary from a minimum of six bits up to a maximum of twelve  
bits depending on when a module detects the error. When-  
ever a bit error, stuff error, form error, or acknowledgment er-  
ror is detected by a node, this node starts transmission of the  
error flag at the next bit. If a CRC error is detected, transmis-  
sion of the error flag starts at the bit following the acknowl-  
edge delimiter, unless an error flag for a previous error con-  
dition has already been started. Figure 24 shows how a local  
fault at one module (module 2) leads to a 12-bit error frame  
on the bus.  
EOF FIELD  
The End of Frame Field closes a data and a remote frame. It  
consists of seven “recessive” bits.  
INTERFRAME SPACE  
The bus level may either be “dominant” for an error-active  
node or “recessive” for an error-passive node. An error ac-  
tive node detecting an error, starts transmitting an active er-  
ror flag consisting of six “dominant” bits. This causes the de-  
struction of the actual frame on the bus. The other nodes  
detect the error flag as either a violation of the rule of bit-  
stuffing or the value of a fixed bit field is destroyed. As a con-  
sequence all other nodes start transmission of their own er-  
ror flag. This means, that the error sequence which can be  
monitored on the bus as a maximum length of twelve bits. If  
an error passive node detects an error it transmits six “reces-  
sive” bits on the bus. This sequence does not destroy a mes-  
sage sent by another node and is not detected by other  
nodes. However, if the node detecting an error was the  
transmitter of the frame the other modules will get an error  
condition by a violation of the fixed bit or stuff rule. Figure 24  
shows how an error passive transmitter transmits a passive  
error frame and when it is detected by the receivers.  
Data and remote frames are separate from every preceding  
frame (data, remote, error and overload frames) by the inter-  
frame space see Figure 22 and Figure 23 for details. Error  
and overload frames are not preceded by an interframe  
space. They can be transmitted as soon as the condition oc-  
curs. The interframe space consists of a minimum of three  
bit fields depending on the error state of the node.  
These bit fields are coded as follows:  
The intermission has the fixed form of three “recessive” bits.  
While this bit field is active, no node is allowed to start a  
transmission of a data or a remote frame. The only action to  
be taken is signaling an overload condition. This means that  
an error in this bit field would be interpreted as an overload  
condition. Suspend transmission has to be inserted by error-  
passive nodes that were transmitter for the last message.  
This bit field has the form of eight “recessive” bits. However,  
it may be overwritten by a “dominant” start-bit from another  
non error passive node which starts transmission. The bus  
idle field consists of “recessive” bits. Its length is not speci-  
fied and depends on the bus load.  
After any module has transmitted its active or passive error  
flag it waits for the error delimiter which consists of eight “re-  
cessive” bits before continuing.

gets the bus. This is only valid for standard CAN frame for-  
mat. Note that while the CAN specification allows valid stan-  
dard identifiers only in the range 0x000 to 0x7EF, the device  
will allow identifiers to 0x7FF.  
Like an error frame, an overload frame consists of two bit  
fields: the overload flag and the overload delimiter. The bit  
fields have the same length as the error frame field: six bits  
for the overload flag and eight bits for the delimiter. The over-  
load frame can only be sent after the end of frame (EOF)  
field and in they way destroys the fixed form of the intermis-  
sion field.  
There are three more items that should be taken into consid-  
eration to avoid unrecoverable collisions on the bus:  
Within one system each message must be assigned a  
unique identifier. This is to prevent bit errors, as one mod-  
ule may transmit a “dominant” data bit while the other is  
transmitting a “recessive” data bit. This could happen if  
two or more modules start transmission of a frame at the  
same time and all win arbitration.  
ORDER OF BIT TRANSMISSION  
A frame is transmitted starting with the Start of Frame, se-  
quentially followed by the remaining bit fields. In every bit  
field the MSB is transmitted first.  
Data frames with a given identifier and a non-zero data  
length code may be initiated by one node only. Other-  
wise, in worst case, two nodes would count up to the bus-  
off state, due to bit errors, if they always start transmitting  
the same ID with different data.  
FRAME VALIDATION  
Frames have a different validation point for transmitters and  
receivers. A frame is valid for the transmitter of a message, if  
there is no error until the end of the last bit of the End of  
Frame field. A frame is valid for a receiver, if there is no error  
until and including the end of the penultimate bit of the End  
of Frame.  
Every remote frame should have a system-wide data  
length code (DLC). Otherwise two modules starting  
transmission of a remote frame at the same time will  
overwrite each other’s DLC which result in bit errors.  
FRAME ARBITRATION AND PRIORITY  
ACCEPTANCE FILTERING  
Except for an error passive node which transmitted the last  
frame, all nodes are allowed to start transmission of a frame  
after the intermission, which can lead to two or more nodes  
starting transmission at the same time. To prevent a node  
from destroying another node’s frame, it monitors the bus  
during transmission of the identifier field and the RTR-bit. As  
soon as it detects a “dominant” bit while transmitting a “re-  
cessive” bit it releases the bus, immediately stops transmis-  
sion and starts receiving the frame. This causes no data or  
remote frame to be destroyed by another. Therefore the  
highest priority message with the identifier 0x000 out of  
0x7EF (including the remote data request (RTR) bit) always  
Every node may perform acceptance filtering on the identi-  
fier of a data or a remote frame to filter out the messages  
which are not required by the node. In they way only the data  
of frames which match the acceptance filter is stored in the  
corresponding data buffers. However, every node which is  
not in the bus-off state and has received a correct CRC-  
sequence acknowledges each frame.

ERROR MANAGEMENT AND DETECTION  
There are multiple mechanisms in the CAN protocol, to de-  
tect errors and to inhibit erroneous modules from disabling  
all bus activities.  
DS100044-31  
FIGURE 26. Order of Bit Transmission within a CAN Frame  
The following errors can be detected:  
Bit Error  
Bus off  
A unit that is “bus off” has the output drivers disabled, i.e., it  
does not participate in any bus activity. A device is bus off  
when the transmit error counter is greater than 255. A bus off  
device will become error active again in one of two ways de-  
pending on which mode is selected by the user through the  
Fault Confinement Mode select bit (FMOD) in the CAN Bus  
Control Register (CBUS). Setting the FMOD bit to “0” (de-  
fault after power on reset) will select the Standard Fault Con-  
finement mode. In this mode the device goes from “bus off”  
to “error active” after monitoring 128*11 recessive bits (in-  
cluding bus idle) on the bus. This mode has been imple-  
mented for compatibility reasons with existing solutions. Set-  
ting the FMOD bit to “1” will select the Enhanced Fault  
Confinement mode. In this mode the device goes from “bus  
off” to “error active” after monitoring 128 “good” messages,  
as indicated by the reception of 11 consecutive “recessive”  
bits including the End of Frame. The enhanced mode offers  
the advantage that a “bus off” device (i.e., a device with a se-  
rious fault) is not allowed to destroy any messages on the  
bus until other devices can transmit at least 128 messages.  
This is not guaranteed in the standard mode, where a defec-  
tive device could seriously impact bus communication. When  
the device goes from “bus off” to “error active”, both error  
counters will have the value “0”.  
A CAN device that is sending also monitors the bus. If the  
monitored bit value is different from the bit value that is sent,  
a bit error is detected. The reception of a “dominant” bit in-  
stead of a “recessive” bit during the transmission of a pas-  
sive error flag, during the stuffed bit stream of the arbitration  
field or during the acknowledge slot, is not interpreted as a  
bit error.  
Stuff error  
A stuff error is detected, if the bit level after 6 consecutive bit  
times has not changed in a message field that has to be  
coded according to the bit stuffing method.  
Form Error  
A form error is detected, if a fixed frame bit (e.g., CRC delim-  
iter, ACK delimiter) does not have the specified value. For a  
receiver a “dominant” bit during the last bit of End of Frame  
does NOT constitute a form error.  
Bit CRC Error  
A CRC error is detected if the remainder of the CRC calcula-  
tion of a received CRC polynomial is non-zero.  
Acknowledgment Error  
An acknowledgment error is detected whenever a transmit-  
ting node does not get an acknowledgment from any other  
node (i.e., when the transmitter does not receive a “domi-  
nant” bit during the ACK frame).  
In each CAN module there are two error counters to perform  
a
sophisticated error management. The receive error  
counter (REC) is 7 bits wide and switches the device to the  
error passive state if it overflows. The transmit error counter  
(TEC) is 8 bits wide. If it is greater than 127, the device is  
switched to the error passive state. As soon as the TEC  
overflows, the device is switched bus-off, i.e., it does not par-  
ticipate in any bus activity.  
The device can be in one of three states with respect to error  
handling:  
Error active  
An error active unit can participate in bus communication  
and sends an active (“dominant”) error flag.  
Error passive  
An error passive unit can participate in bus communication.  
However, if the unit detects an error it is not allowed to send  
an active error flag. The unit sends only a passive (“reces-  
sive”) error flag. A device is error passive when the transmit  
error counter is greater than 127 or when the receive error  
counter is greater than 127. A device becoming error passive  
sends an active error flag. An error passive device becomes  
error active again when both transmit and receive error  
counter are less than 128.  
www.national.com  
32  
When the device goes “error passive” and detects an ac-  
knowledge error, the TEC counter is not incremented.  
Therefore the device will not go from “error passive” to  
the “bus off” state due to such a condition.  
Frame Formats (Continued)  
The counters are modified by the device’s hardware accord-  
ing to the following rules:  
Figure 27 shows the connection of different bus states ac-  
cording to the error counters.

SYNCHRONIZATION  
Every receiver starts with a “hard synchronization” on the  
falling edge of the SOF bit. One bit time consists of four bit  
segments: Synchronization segment, propagation segment,  
phase segment 1 and phase segment 2.  
Any other error condition (stuff,  
frame, CRC, ACK).

A falling edge of the data signal should be in the synchroni-  
zation segment. This segment has the fixed length of one  
time quanta. To compensate for the various delays within a  
network, the propagation segment is used. Its length is pro-  
grammable from 1 to 8 time quanta. Phase segment 1 and  
phase segment 2 are used to resynchronize during an active  
frame. The length of these segments is from 1 to 8 time  
quanta long.

Two types of synchronization are supported:  
Hard synchronization is done with the falling edge on the  
bus while the bus is idle, which is then interpreted as the  
SOF. It restarts the internal logic.

following an active error flag or

“dominant” bits.  
Soft synchronization is used to lengthen or shorten the bit  
time while a data or remote frame is received. Whenever a  
falling edge is detected in the propagation segment or in  
phase segment 1, the segment is lengthened by a specific  
value, the resynchronization jump width (see Figure 29 ).  
If a falling edge lies in the phase segment 2 (as shown in Fig-  
ure 29 ) it is shortened by the resynchronization jump width.  
Only one resynchronization is allowed during one bit time.  
The sample point lies between the two phase segments and  
is the point where the received data is supposed to be valid.  
The transmission point lies at the end of phase segment 2 to  
start a new bit time with the synchronization segment.  
Any other error condition (stuff,  
frame, CRC, ACK).  
Increment by 8  
A valid reception or

1. The resynchronization jump width (RJW) is automati-  
cally determined from the programmed value of PS. If a  
soft resynchronization is done during phase segment 1  
or the propagation segment, then RJW will either be  
equal to 4 internal CAN clocks (CKI/(1 + divider)) or the  
programmed value of PS, whichever is less. PS2 will  
never be shorter than 1 internal CAN clock.  
Special error handling for the TEC counter is performed in  
the following situations:  
A stuff error occurs during arbitration, when a transmitted  
“recessive” stuff bit is received as a “dorminant” bit. This  
does not lead to an incrementation of the TEC.  
An ACK-error occurs in an error passive device and no  
“dominant” bits are detected while sending the passive  
error flag. This does not lead to an incrementation of the  
TEC.  
2. (PS1BTL settings any PSC setting) The PS1 of the  
BTL should always be programmed to values greater  
than 1. To allow device resynchronization for positive  
and negative phase errors on the bus. (if PS1 is pro-  
grammed to one, a bit time could only be lengthened  
and never shortened which basically disables half of the  
synchronization).  
If only one device is on the bus and this device transmits  
a message, it will get no acknowledgment. This will be  
detected as an error and message will be repeated.

INTRODUCTION  
Each device supports fourteen vectored interrupts. Interrupt  
sources include Timer 0, Timer 1, Timer 2, Timer 3, Port L  
Wakeup, Software Trap, MICROWIRE/PLUS, and External  
Input.  
Figure 31 shows the Interrupt Block Diagram.  
All interrupts force a branch to location 00FF Hex in program  
memory. The VIS instruction may be used to vector to the  
appropriate service routine from location 00FF Hex.

interrupt, and jump to the interrupt handling routine corre-  
sponding to the highest priority enabled and active interrupt.  
Alternately, the user may choose to poll all interrupt pending  
and enable bits to determine the source(s) of the interrupt. If  
more than one interrupt is active, the user’s program must  
decide which interrupt to service.  
Interrupts (Continued)  
MASKABLE INTERRUPTS  
All interrupts other than the Software Trap are maskable.  
Each maskable interrupt has an associated enable bit and  
pending flag bit. The pending bit is set to 1 when the interrupt  
condition occurs. The state of the interrupt enable bit, com-  
bined with the GIE bit determines whether an active pending  
flag actually triggers an interrupt. All of the maskable inter-  
rupt pending and enable bits are contained in mapped con-  
trol registers, and thus can be controlled by the software.  
Within a specific interrupt service routine, the associated  
pending bit should be cleared. This is typically done as early  
as possible in the service routine in order to avoid missing  
the next occurrence of the same type of interrupt event.  
Thus, if the same event occurs a second time, even while the  
first occurrence is still being serviced, the second occur-  
rence will be serviced immediately upon return from the cur-  
rent interrupt routine.  
A maskable interrupt condition triggers an interrupt under the  
following conditions:  
1. The enable bit associated with that interrupt is set.  
2. The GIE bit is set.  
An interrupt service routine typically ends with an RETI in-  
struction. This instruction sets the GIE bit back to 1, pops the  
address stored on the stack, and restores that address to the  
program counter. Program execution then proceeds with the  
next instruction that would have been executed had there  
been no interrupt. If there are any valid interrupts pending,  
the highest-priority interrupt is serviced immediately upon re-  
turn from the previous interrupt.  
3. The device is not processing a non-maskable interrupt.  
(If  
a non-maskable interrupt is being serviced, a  
maskable interrupt must wait until that service routine is  
completed.)  
An interrupt is triggered only when all of these conditions are  
met at the beginning of an instruction. If different maskable  
interrupts meet these conditions simultaneously, the highest  
priority interrupt will be serviced first, and the other pending  
interrupts must wait.  
VIS INSTRUCTION  
The general interrupt service routine, which starts at address  
00FF Hex, must be capable of handling all types of inter-  
rupts. The VIS instruction, together with an interrupt vector  
table, directs the device to the specific interrupt handling rou-  
tine based on the cause of the interrupt.  
Upon Reset, all pending bits, individual enable bits, and the  
GIE bit are reset to zero. Thus, a maskable interrupt condi-  
tion cannot trigger an interrupt until the program enables it by  
setting both the GIE bit and the individual enable bit. When  
enabling an interrupt, the user should consider whether or  
not a previously activated (set) pending bit should be ac-  
knowledged. If, at the time an interrupt is enabled, any pre-  
vious occurrences of the interrupt should be ignored, the as-  
sociated pending bit must be reset to zero prior to enabling  
the interrupt. Otherwise, the interrupt may be simply en-  
abled; if the pending bit is already set, it will immediately trig-  
ger an interrupt. A maskable interrupt is active if its associ-  
ated enable and pending bits are set.  
VIS is a single-byte instruction, typically used at the very be-  
ginning of the general interrupt service routine at address  
00FF Hex, or shortly after that point, just after the code used  
for context switching. The VIS instruction determines which  
enabled and pending interrupt has the highest priority, and  
causes an indirect jump to the address corresponding to that  
interrupt source. The jump addresses (vectors) for all pos-  
sible interrupts sources are stored in a vector table.  
The vector table may be as long as 32 bytes (maximum of 16  
vectors) and resides at the top of the 256-byte block contain-  
ing the VIS instruction. However, if the VIS instruction is at  
the very top of a 256-byte block (such as at 00FF Hex), the  
vector table resides at the top of the next 256-byte block.  
Thus, if the VIS instruction is located somewhere between  
00FF and 01DF Hex (the usual case), the vector table is lo-  
cated between addresses 01E0 and 01FF Hex. If the VIS in-  
struction is located between 01FF and 02DF Hex, then the  
vector table is located between addresses 02E0 and 02FF  
Hex, and so on.  
An interrupt is an asychronous event which may occur be-  
fore, during, or after an instruction cycle. Any interrupt which  
occurs during the execution of an instruction is not acknowl-  
edged until the start of the next normally executed instruction  
is to be skipped, the skip is performed before the pending in-  
terrupt is acknowledged.  
At the start of interrupt acknowledgment, the following ac-  
tions occur:  
1. The GIE bit is automatically reset to zero, preventing any  
subsequent maskable interrupt from interrupting the cur-  
rent service routine. This feature prevents one maskable  
interrupt from interrupting another one being serviced.  
Each vector is 15 bits long and points to the beginning of a  
specific interrupt service routine somewhere in the 32 kbyte  
memory space. Each vector occupies two bytes of the vector  
table, with the higher-order byte at the lower address. The  
vectors are arranged in order of interrupt priority. The vector  
of the maskable interrupt with the lowest rank is located to  
0yE0 (higher-order byte) and 0yE1 (lower-order byte). The  
next priority interrupt is located at 0yE2 and 0yE3, and so  
forth in increasing rank. The Software Trap has the highest  
rank and its vector is always located at 0yFE and 0yFF. The  
number of interrupts which can become active defines the  
size of the table.  
2. The address of the instruction about to be executed is  
pushed onto the stack.  
3. The program counter (PC) is loaded with 00FF Hex,  
causing a jump to that program memory location.  
The device requires seven instruction cycles to perform the  
actions listed above.  
If the user wishes to allow nested interrupts, the interrupts  
service routine may set the GIE bit to 1 by writing to the PSW  
register, and thus allow other maskable interrupts to interrupt  
the current service routine. If nested interrupts are allowed,  
caution must be exercised. The user must write the program  
in such a way as to prevent stack overflow, loss of saved  
context information, and other unwanted conditions.  
Table 10 shows the types of interrupts, the interrupt arbitra-  
tion ranking, and the locations of the corresponding vectors  
in the vector table.  
The vector table should be filled by the user with the memory  
locations of the specific interrupt service routines. For ex-  
The interrupt service routine stored at location 00FF Hex  
should use the VIS instruction to determine the cause of the

gram context (A, B, X, etc.) and executing the RETI instruc-  
tion, an interrupt service routine can be terminated by return-  
ing to the VIS instruction. In this case, interrupts will be  
serviced in turn until no further interrupts are pending and  
the default VIS routine is started. After testing the GIE bit to  
ensure that execution is not erroneous, the routine should  
restore the program context and execute the RETI to return  
to the interrupted program.  
Interrupts (Continued)  
ample, if the Software Trap routine is located at 0310 Hex,  
then the vector location 0yFE and -0yFF should contain the  
data 03 and 10 Hex, respectively. When a Software Trap in-  
terrupt occurs and the VIS instruction is executed, the pro-  
gram jumps to the address specified in the vector table.  
The interrupt sources in the vector table are listed in order of  
rank, from highest to lowest priority. If two or more enabled  
and pending interrupts are detected at the same time, the  
one with the highest priority is serviced first. Upon return  
from the interrupt service routine, the next highest-level  
pending interrupt is serviced.  
This technique can save up to fifty instruction cycles (t  
c), or  
more, (50 µs at 10 MHz oscillator) of latency for pending in-  
terrupts with a penalty of fewer than ten instruction cycles if  
no further interrupts are pending.  
To ensure reliable operation, the user should always use the  
VIS instruction to determine the source of an interrupt. Al-  
though it is possible to poll the pending bits to detect the  
source of an interrupt, this practice is not recommended. The  
use of polling allows the standard arbitration ranking to be al-  
tered, but the reliability of the interrupt system is compro-  
mised. The polling routine must individually test the enable  
and pending bits of each maskable interrupt. If a Software  
Trap interrupt should occur, it will be serviced last, even  
though it should have the highest priority. Under certain con-  
ditions, a Software Trap could be triggered but not serviced,  
resulting in an inadvertent “locking out” of all maskable inter-  
rupts by the Software Trap pending flag. Problems such as  
this can be avoided by using VIS instruction.  
If the VIS instruction is executed, but no interrupts are en-  
abled and pending, the lowest-priority interrupt vector is  
used, and a jump is made to the corresponding address in  
the vector table. This is an unusual occurrence, and may be  
the result of an error. It can legitimately result from a change  
in the enable bits or pending flags prior to the execution of  
the VIS instruction, such as executing a single cycle instruc-  
tion which clears an enable flag at the same time that the  
pending flag is set. It can also result, however, from inadvert-  
ent execution of the VIS command outside of the context of  
an interrupt.  
The default VIS interrupt vector can be useful for applica-  
tions in which time critical interrupts can occur during the  
servicing of another interrupt. Rather than restoring the pro-

mains unchanged. The new PC is therefore pointing to the  
vector of the active interrupt with the highest arbitration rank-  
ing. This vector is read from program memory and placed  
into the PC which is now pointed to the 1st instruction of the  
service routine of the active interrupt with the highest arbitra-  
tion ranking.

VIS Execution  
When the VIS instruction is executed it activates the arbitra-  
tion logic. The arbitration logic generates an even number  
between E0 and FE (E0, E2, E4, E6 etc...) depending on  
which active interrupt has the highest arbitration ranking at  
the time of the 1st cycle of VIS is executed. For example, if  
the software trap interrupt is active, FE is generated. If the  
external interrupt is active and the software trap interrupt is  
not, then FA is generated and so forth. If the only active inter-  
rupt is software trap, than E0 is generated. This number re-  
places the lower byte of the PC. The upper byte of the PC re-

The non-maskable interrupt pending flag is cleared by the  
RPND (Reset Non-Maskable Pending Bit) instruction (under  
certain conditions) and upon RESET.

flag; upon return to the first Software Trap routine, the  
STPND flag will have the wrong state. This will allow  
maskable interrupts to be acknowledged during the servicing  
of the first Software Trap. To avoid problems such as this, the  
user program should contain the Software Trap routine to  
perform a recovery procedure rather than a return to normal  
execution.  
Interrupts (Continued)  
NON-MASKABLE INTERRUPT  
Pending Flag  
There is a pending flag bit associated with the non-maskable  
interrupt, called STPND. This pending flag is not memory-  
mapped and cannot be accessed directly by the software.  
Under normal conditions, the STPND flag is reset by a  
RPND instruction in the Software Trap service routine. If a  
programming error or hardware condition (brownout, power  
supply glitch, etc.) sets the STPND flag without providing a  
way for it to be cleared, all other interrupts will be locked out.  
To alleviate this condition, the user can use extra RPND in-  
structions in the main program and in the WATCHDOG ser-  
vice routine (if present). There is no harm in executing extra  
RPND instructions in these parts of the program.  
The pending flag is reset to zero when a device Reset oc-  
curs. When the non-maskable interrupt occurs, the associ-  
ated pending bit is set to 1. The interrupt service routine  
should contain an RPND instruction to reset the pending flag  
to zero. The RPND instruction always resets the STPND  
flag.  
Software Trap  
The Software Trap is a special kind of non-maskable inter-  
rupt which occurs when the INTR instruction (used to ac-  
knowledge interrupts) is fetched from program memory and  
placed in the instruction register. This can happen in a vari-  
ety of ways, usually because of an error condition. Some ex-  
amples of causes are listed below.  
PORT L INTERRUPTS  
Port L provides the user with an additional eight fully select-  
able, edge sensitive interrupts which are all vectored into the  
same service subroutine.  
The interrupt from Port L shares logic with the wake up cir-  
cuitry. The register WKEN allows interrupts from Port L to be  
individually enabled or disabled. The register WKEDG speci-  
fies the trigger condition to be either a positive or a negative  
edge. Finally, the register WKPND latches in the pending  
trigger conditions.  
If the program counter incorrectly points to a memory loca-  
tion beyond the available program memory space, the non-  
existent or unused memory location returns zeroes which is  
interpreted as the INTR instruction.  
If the stack is popped beyond the allowed limit (address 06F  
Hex), a 7FFF will be loaded into the PC, if this last location in  
program memory is unprogrammed or unavailable, a Soft-  
ware Trap will be triggered.  
The GIE (Global Interrupt Enable) bit enables the interrupt  
function.  
A control flag, LPEN, functions as a global interrupt enable  
for Port L interrupts. Setting the LPEN flag will enable inter-  
rupts and vice versa. A separate global pending flag is not  
needed since the register WKPND is adequate.  
A Software Trap can be triggered by a temporary hardware  
condition such as a brownout or power supply glitch.  
The Software Trap has the highest priority of all interrupts.  
When a Software Trap occurs, the STPND bit is set. The GIE  
bit is not affected and the pending bit (not accessible by the  
user) is used to inhibit other interrupts and to direct the pro-  
gram to the ST service routine with the VIS instruction. Noth-  
ing can interrupt a Software Trap service routine except for  
another Software Trap. The STPND can be reset only by the  
RPND instruction or a chip Reset.  
Since Port L is also used for waking the device out of the  
HALT or IDLE modes, the user can elect to exit the HALT or  
IDLE modes either with or without the interrupt enabled. If he  
elects to disable the interrupt, then the device will restart ex-  
ecution from the instruction immediately following the in-  
struction that placed the microcontroller in the HALT or IDLE  
modes. In the other case, the device will first execute the in-  
terrupt service routine and then revert to normal operation.  
(See HALT MODE for clock option wakeup information.)  
The Software Trap indicates an unusual or unknown error  
condition. Generally, returning to normal execution at the  
point where the Software Trap occurred cannot be done re-  
liably. Therefore, the Software Trap service routine should  
reinitialize the stack pointer and perform a recovery proce-  
dure that restarts the software at some known point, similar  
to a device Reset, but not necessarily performing all the  
same functions as a device Reset. The routine must also ex-  
ecute the RPND instruction to reset the STPND flag. Other-  
wise, all other interrupts will be locked out. To the extent pos-  
sible, the interrupt routine should record or indicate the  
context of the device so that the cause of the Software Trap  
can be determined.  
INTERRUPT SUMMARY  
The device uses the following types of interrupts, listed be-  
low in order of priority:  
1. The Software Trap non-maskable interrupt, triggered by  
the INTR (00 opcode) instruction. The Software Trap is  
acknowledged immediately. This interrupt service rou-  
tine can be interrupted only by another Software Trap.  
The Software Trap should end with two RPND instruc-  
tions followed by a restart procedure.  
2. Maskable interrupts, triggered by an on-chip peripheral  
block or an external device connected to the device. Un-  
der ordinary conditions, a maskable interrupt will not in-  
If the user wishes to return to normal execution from the  
point at which the Software Trap was triggered, the user  
must first execute RPND, followed by RETSK rather than  
RETI or RET. This is because the return address stored on  
the stack is the address of the INTR instruction that triggered  
the interrupt. The program must skip that instruction in order  
to proceed with the next one. Otherwise, an infinite loop of  
Software Traps and returns will occur.  
terrupt any other interrupt routine in progress.  
maskable interrupt routine in progress can be inter-  
rupted by the non-maskable interrupt request.  
maskable interrupt routine should end with an RETI in-  
struction or, prior to restoring context, should return to  
execute the VIS instruction. This is particularly useful  
when exiting long interrupt service routiness if the time  
between interrupts is short. In this case the RETI instruc-  
tion would only be executed when the default VIS rou-  
tine is reached.

Programming a return to normal execution requires careful  
consideration. If the Software Trap routine is interrupted by  
another Software Trap, the RPND instruction in the service  
routine for the second Software Trap will reset the STPND

shift register (SIO) with serial data input (SI), serial data out-  
put (SO) and serial shift clock (SK). Figure 34 shows a block  
diagram of the MICROWIRE/PLUS logic.  
Detection of Illegal Conditions  
The device can detect various illegal conditions resulting  
from coding errors, transient noise, power supply voltage  
drops, runaway programs, etc.  
The shift clock can be selected from either an internal source  
or an external source. Operating the MICROWIRE/PLUS ar-  
rangement with the internal clock source is called the Master  
mode of operation. Similarly, operating the MICROWIRE/  
PLUS arrangement with an external shift clock is called the  
Slave mode of operation.  
Reading of underfined ROM gets zeros. The opcode for soft-  
ware interrupt is zero. If the program fetches instructions  
from undefined ROM, this will force a software interrupt, thus  
signaling that an illegal condition has occurred.  
The subroutine stack grows down for each call (jump to sub-  
routine), interrupt, or PUSH, and grows up for each return or  
POP. The stack pointer is initialized to RAM location 02F Hex  
during reset. Consequently, if there are more returns than  
calls, the stack pointer will point to addresses 030 and 031  
Hex (which are undefined RAM). Undefined RAM from ad-  
dress 030 to 03F Hex is read as all 1’s, which in turn will  
cause the program to return to address 7FFF Hex. This is an  
undefined ROM location and the instruction fetched (all 0’s)  
from this location will generate a software interrupt signaling  
an illegal condition.  
The CNTRL register is used to configure and control the  
MICROWIRE/PLUS mode. To use the MICROWIRE/PLUS,  
the MSEL bit in the CNTRL register is set to one. In the mas-  
ter mode the SK clock rate is selected by the two bits, SL0  
and SL1, in the CNTRL register. Table 11 details the different  
clock rates that may be selected.  
MICROWIRE/PLUS OPERATION  
Setting the BUSY bit in the PSW register causes the  
MICROWIRE/PLUS to start shifting the data. It gets reset  
when eight data bits have been shifted. The user may reset  
the BUSY bit by software to allow less than 8 bits to shift. If  
enabled, an interrupt is generated when eight data bits have  
been shifted. The device may enter the MICROWIRE/PLUS  
mode either as a Master or as a Slave. Figure 35 shows how  
two COP888 family microcontrollers and several peripherals  
may be interconnected using the MICROWIRE/PLUS ar-  
rangements.  
Thus, the chip can detect the following illegal conditions:  
1. Executing from undefined ROM.  
2. Over “POP”ing the stack by having more returns than  
calls.  
When the software interrupt occurs, the user can re-initialize  
the stack pointer and do a recovery procedure before restart-  
ing (this recovery program is probably similar to that follow-  
ing reset, but might not contain the same program initializa-  
tion procedures).  
WARNING:  
The SIO register should only be loaded when the SK clock is  
low. Loading the SIO register while the SK clock is high will  
result in undefined data in the SIO register. SK clock is nor-  
mally low when not shifting.  
MICROWIRE/PLUS  
MICROWIRE/PLUS is a serial synchronous communications  
interface. The MICROWIRE/PLUS capability enables the de-  
vice to interface with any of National Semiconductor’s MI-  
CROWIRE peripherals (i.e., A/D converters, display drivers,  
E2PROMs etc.) and with other microcontrollers which sup-  
port the MICROWIRE interface. It consists of an 8-bit serial  
Setting the BUSY flag when the input SK clock is high in the  
MICROWIRE/PLUS slave mode may cause the current SK  
clock for the SIO shift register to be narrow. For safety, the  
BUSY flag should only be set when the input SK clock is low.

FIGURE 35. MICROWIRE/PLUS Application  
MICROWIRE/PLUS Master Mode Operation  
Alternate SK Phase Operation  
In the MICROWIRE/PLUS Master mode of operation the  
shift clock (SK) is generated internally. The MICROWIRE  
Master always initiates all data exchanges. The MSEL bit in  
the CNTRL register must be set to enable the SO and SK  
functions onto the G Port. The SO and SK pins must also be  
selected as outputs by setting appropriate bits in the Port G  
configuraiton register. Table 11 summarizes the bit settings  
required for Master or Slave mode of operation.  
The device allows either the normal SK clock or an alternate  
phase SK clock to shift data in and out of the SIO register. In  
both the modes the SK is normally low. In the normal mode  
data is shifted in on the rising edge of the SK clock and the  
data is shifted out on the falling edge of the SK clock. The  
SIO register is shifted on each falling edge of the SK clock in  
the normal mode. In the alternate SK phase mode the SIO  
register is shifted on the rising edge of the SK clock.  
A control flag, SKSEL, allows either the normal SK clock or  
the alternate SK clock to be selected. Resetting SKSEL  
causes the MICROWIRE/PLUS logic to be clocked from the  
normal SK signal. Setting the SKSEL flag selects the alter-  
nate SK clock. The SKSEL is mapped into the G6 configura-  
tion bit. The SKSEL flag will power up in the reset condition,  
selecting the normal SK signal.

and the SO pin is selected as an output pin by setting and re-

Serial Peripheral Interface

FIGURE 36. SPI Transmission Example  
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is used in master-slave  
bus systems. It is a synchronous bidirectional serial commu-  
nication interface with two data lines MISO and MOSI (Mas-  
ter In Slave Out, Master Out Slave In). A serial clock and a  
slave select (SS) signal are always generated by the SPI  
Master. The interface receives/transmits protocol frames  
with up to 12 bytes length within a frame, where a frame is  
defined as the time between a falling edge and a rising edge  
of SS.  
(ESS[7:0]) or as host programmable general purpose sig-  
nals. The SS-Expander is programmed with the content of  
the first MOSI-byte (i.e., the content of the 1st byte [7:0] ap-  
pears at ESS[7:0]) (N-port[7:0]), respectively), if the ESS  
programming mode is selected. The ESS programming  
mode is selected by the condition MOSI = L at the falling  
edge of SS.  
Use of the ESS expander requires the setup of four condi-  
tions by the user.  
1. Set the SESSEN bit of SPICNTL.  
THEORY OF OPERATION  
2. Set PORTNX to select which bits are used for SS expan-  
sion.  
Figure 38 shows a block diagram illustrating the basic opera-  
tion of the SPI circuit. In the SPI interface, data is  
transmitted/received in packets of 8 bits length which are  
shifted into/out of a shift register with the active edge of the  
shift clock SCK. Two 12 byte FIFOs, which serve as a re-  
ceive and a transmit buffer, allow a maximum message  
length of 12 x 8 bits in both transmit and receive direction  
without CPU intervention. With CPU intervention, many  
more bytes can be received. Two registers, the SPI Control  
Register (SPICNTL) and the SPI Status Register (SPISTAT),  
are used to control the SPI interface via the internal COP  
bus. Several different operation modes, such as master or  
slave operation, are possible.  
3. Configure the PORTNC register to enable the desired  
SS expansion bits as outputs.  
4. Have an ESS condition (MOSI = low at the falling edge  
of SS).  
Loop Back Mode  
Setting the SLOOP bit enables the Loop Back mode, which  
can be used for test purposes. If the Loop Back mode is se-  
lected, TX FIFO data are communicated to the RX FIFO via  
the SPI Register. In the slave mode, MISO output is inter-  
nally connected to the MOSI input. In the master mode, the  
MOSI output is internally connected to the MISO input.  
An SS-Expander allows the generation of up to 8 signals on  
the N-port, which can be used as additional SS-signals

PROGRAMMING THE SPI EXPANDER  
The selected N-port bits will be set to 1 after the positive  
edge of SS.  
If the SS Expander is enabled by setting SESSEN = 1 in the  
SPI Control Register (SPICNTL), the N-port will be pro-  
grammed with the content of the first MOSI-byte (i.e., the  
content of the 1st byte [7:0] appears at N-port[7:0] after com-  
plete reception of the first byte), if the ESS programming  
mode is detected. If any bytes follow after the 1st MOSI byte,  
all data will be ignored by the SPI.  
Single N-port bits may be enabled for use as SS expansion,  
or disabled to allow for general purpose I/O, by the respec-  
tive bits in the PORTNX register.  
The ESS programming mode is detected by the ESS control  
logic, which decodes the condition “MOSI = L at the falling  
edge of SS. For further details, see Figure 39.

This bit is set on the attempt to overwrite valid data in the RX FIFO by the SPI interface. (The condition to

This bit can generate a receive interrupt if enabled with the RIE bit.  
SPI Transmit buffer full

As a result of the SRORN condition, the SRWP becomes frozen (i.e., does not change until the SRORN bit is reset) and the SPI will not store any new data in the

SPI SYNCHRONIZATION  
After the SPI is enabled (SPIEN = 1), the SPI internal re-  
ceive and transmit shift clock is kept disabled until SS be-  
comes inactive. This includes SS being active at the time  
SPIEN is set, i.e., no receive/transmit is possible until SS  
becomes inactive after enabling the SPI.  
Writing data into this register will start a transmission of data  
in the master mode.  
Note: No read modify write instructions should be used on this register.  
Reading this register from the SPI side will read the byte at  
the current STRP location and afterwards increment STRP.  
HALT/IDLE MODE  
SPI RX FIFO  
If the device enters the HALT/IDLE mode, both RX and TX  
FIFOs get reset (Flushed). If the device is exiting HALT/  
IDLE mode, and SPI synchronization takes place as de-  
scribed above. SPIRXD and SPITXD have the same state  
as after Reset, SPISTAT bits after HALT/IDLE mode are:  
The SPI RX FIFO is a 12 byte first in first out buffer. SPI RX  
FIFO data are read from the controller by reading the  
SPIRXD register. A pointer (SRRP) controls the controller  
read location. Data is written to this register by the SPI inter-  
face. The write location is controlled by the SRWP. SRWP is  
incremented after data is stored to the FIFO SRWP is never

The following bits indicate the status of the RX FIFO:  
SRBNE = (SRWP != SRRP) and !SRORN .SRORN is set at  
(SRWP = SRRP) and after a write from the SPI side, reset at  
write to SPISTAT.  
TRANSMISSION START IN MASTER MODE  
The transmission of data in the Master mode is started if  
the user controlled SS signal is switched active. No SCK  
will be generated in Master mode and thus no data is  
transmitted if the SS signal is kept high, i.e., SS must be  
switched low to generate SCK. Resetting the SS signal in  
the Master mode will immediately stop the transmission  
and flush the transmit FIFO. Thus, the user must only re-  
set the SS if:  
Special conditions: if .SRORN is set, no writes to the RX  
FIFO are allowed from the SPI side. SRWP is frozen. Reset-  
ting. SRORN (after it was set) clears both SRWP and SRRP.  
To prevent erroneous clearing of the Receive FIFO when en-  
tering HALT/IDLE mode, the user needs to enable the MIWU  
or port M3 (SS) by setting bit 3 in MWKEN register.  
1. TBE is set or  
2. SCK is high (SCE = 0) or low (SCE = 1)  
SPI TX FIFO  
The SPI TX FIFO is a 12 byte first in first out buffer. Data is  
written to the FIFO by the controller executing a write instruc-  
tion to the SPITXD register. A pointer (STWP) controls the  
controller write location. Data is read from this register by the  
SPI interface. The read location is controlled by the STRP.  
STRP is incremented after data is read from the FIFO STRP  
TX AND RX FIFO  
If the SPI is disabled (SPIEN = 0), all SPI FIFO related  
pointers are reset and kept at zero until the SPI is enabled  
again. Also, the Read/Write operation to both SPITXD and  
SPIRXD will not cause the pointers to change, if SPIEN is  
set, Read operations from the RXFIFO and Write opera-  
tion to TXFIFO will increment the respective Read/Write  
pointers.

etc. It is a circularly linked list.  
SPIRXD is at address location “009A”. It is a read/write  
register.  
Both pointers are cleared at reset.  
The following bits indicate the status of the TX FIFO: STBF  
= set at (STRP = STWP) after a write from the controller re-  
set at ((STRP != STWP) I STBE) after a read from the SPI  
STBE = (STRP = STWP) after a read from the SPI.  
This register holds the receive data at the current SRRP  
location: a COP read operation from this register to the ac-  
cumulator will read the RX FIFO at the SRRP location and  
increment SRRP afterwards. A write to this register (by the  
controllers SW) will write to the RX FIFO at the current  
SRRP location. The SRRP is not changed.  
Special conditions: If the SS signal becomes high before  
data the last bit of the last byte in the TX FIFO is transmitted  
both STRP and STWP will be set to 0. The STFL bit will be  
set. (STBE will be set as well.)  
Note: The SRRP, SRWP, STRP and STWP registers are not available to the  
user. Their operation description is included for clarity and to enhance  
the user’s understanding.  
Note: During breakpoint the SRRP is not incremented.  
A write to this register from the SPI interface side will write to  
the current SRWP location and increment SRWP afterwards.  
SPITXD SPI Transmit Data Register  
SPITXD is at address location “009B”. It is a read/write reg-  
ister.  
A/D Converter  
The device contains an 8-channel, multiplexed input, suc-  
cessive approximation, Analog-to Digital converter. The de-  
vice’s VCC and GND pins are used for voltage reference.  
This register holds the transmit data at the current STWP lo-  
cation: a write from the controller to this register will write to

The A/D converter supports ratiometric measurements. It  
supports both Single Ended and Differential modes of opera-  
tion.  
Four specific analog channel selection modes are sup-  
ported. These are as follows:  
Allow any specific channel to be selected at one time. The  
A/D converter performs the specific conversion requested  
and stops.  
Allow any specific channel to be scanned continuously. In  
other words, the user specifies the channel and the A/D con-  
verter scans it continuously. At any arbitrary time the user  
can immediately read the result of the last conversion. The  
user must wait for only the first conversion to complete.  
MODE SELECT  
This 2-bit field is used to select the mode of operation (single  
conversion, continuous conversions, differential, single

The ENAD control register contains 3 bits for channel selec-

and a Busy bit. An A/D conversion is initiated by setting the  
ADBSY bit in the ENAD control register. The result of the  
conversion is available to the user in the A/D result register,  
ADRSLT, when ADBSY is cleared by the hardware on  
completion of the conversion.

tiates a conversion based on the mode select value currently  
in the ENAD register. Normal completion of an A/D conver-

If the user wishes to restart a conversion which is already in  
progress, this can be accomplished only by writing a zero to  
the ADBSY bit to stop the current conversion and then by  
writing a one to ADBSY to start a new conversion. This can  
be done in two consecutive instructions.  
ADC Operation  
The A/D converter interface works as follows. Setting the  
ADBSY bit in the A/D control register ENAD initiates an A/D  
conversion. The conversion sequence starts at the begin-  
ning of the write to ENAD operation which sets ADBSY, thus  
powering up the A/D. At the first falling edge of the converter  
clock following the write operation, the sample signal turns  
51  
www.national.com  
The 17 A/D clock cycles needed for conversion consist of 1  
cycle at the beginning for reset, 7 cycles for sampling, 8  
cycles for converting, and 1 cycle for loading the result into  
the A/D result register (ADRSLT). This A/D result register is a  
read-only register. The user cannot write into ADRSLT.  
A/D Converter (Continued)  
on for seven clock cycles. If the A/D is in single conversion  
mode, the conversion complete signal from the A/D will gen-  
erate a power down for the A/D converter and will clear the  
ADBSY bit in the ENAD register at the next instruction cycle  
boundary. If the A/D is in continuous mode, the conversion  
complete signal will restart the conversion sequence by de-  
selecting the A/D for one converter clock cycle before start-  
ing the next sample. The A/D 8-bit result is immediately  
loaded into the A/D result register (ADRSLT) upon comple-  
tion. Internal logic prevents transient data (resulting from the  
A/D writing a new result over an old one) being read from  
ADRSLT.  
The ADBSY flag provides an A/D clock inhibit function, which  
saves power by powering down the A/D when it is not in use.  
Note: The A/D converter is also powered down when the device is in either  
the HALT or IDLE modes. If the A/D is running when the device enters  
the HALT or IDLE modes, the A/D powers down and then restarts the  
conversion with a corrupted sampled voltage (and thus an invalid re-  
sult) when the device comes out of the HALT or IDLE modes.  
Analog Input and Source Resistance Considerations  
Figure 43 shows the A/D pin model in single ended mode.  
The differential mode has a similar A/D pin model. The leads  
to the analog inputs should be kept as short as possible.  
Both noise and digital clock coupling to an A/D input can  
cause conversion errors. The clock lead should be kept  
away from the analog input line to reduce coupling. The A/D  
channel input pins do not have any internal output driver cir-  
cuitry connected to them because this circuitry would load  
the analog input signals due to output buffer leakage current.  
Inadvertent changes to the ENAD register during conversion  
are prevented by the control logic of the A/D. Any attempt to  
write any bit of the ENAD Register except ADBSY, while  
ADBSY is a one, is ignored. ADBSY must be cleared either  
by completion of an A/D conversion or by the user before the  
prescaler, conversion mode or channel select values can be  
changed. After stopping the current conversion, the user can  
load different values for the prescaler, conversion mode or  
channel select and start a new conversion in one instruction.  
Source impedances greater than 3 kon the analog input  
lines will adversely affect the internal RC charging time dur-  
ing input sampling. As shown inFigure 43, the analog switch  
to the DAC array is closed only during the 7 A/D cycle  
sample time. Large source impedances on the analog inputs  
may result in the DAC array not being charged to the correct  
voltage levels, causing scale errors.  
It is important for the user to realize that, when used in differ-  
ential mode, only the positive input to the A/D converter is  
sampled and held. The negative input is constantly con-  
nected and should be held stable for the duration of the con-  
version. Failure to maintain a stable negative input will result  
in incorrect conversion.  
If large source resistance is necessary, the recommended  
solution is to slow down the A/D clock speed in proportion to  
the source resistance. The A/D converter may be operated  
at the maximum speed for RS less than 3 k. For RS greater  
than 3 k, A/D clock speed needs to be reduced. For ex-  
ample, with RS = 6 k, the A/D converter may be operated  
at half the maximum speed. A/D converter clock speed may  
be slowed down by either increasing the A/D prescaler  
divide-by or decreasing the CKI clock frquency. The A/D  
minimum clock speed is 100 kHz.  
PRESCALER  
The A/D Converter (A/D) contains a prescaler option that al-  
lows four different clock selections. The A/D clock frequency  
is equal to CKI divided by the prescaler value. Note that the  
prescaler value must be chosen such that the A/D clock falls  
within the specified range. The maximum A/D frequency is  
1.67 MHz. This equates to a 600 ns A/D clock cycle.  
The A/D converter takes 17 A/D clock cycles to complete a  
conversion. Thus the minimum A/D conversion time for the  
device is 10.2 µs when a prescaler of 6 has been selected.

Other functions of the ENUR register include saving the  
ninth bit received in the data frame, enabling or disabling the  
USART’s attention mode of operation and providing addi-  
tional receiver/transmitter status information via RCVG and  
XMTG bits. The determination of an internal or external clock  
source is done by the ENUI register, as well as selecting the  
number of stop bits and enabling or disabling transmit and  
receive interrupts. A control flag in this register can also se-  
lect the USART mode of operation: asynchronous or  
synchronous.  
USART  
The device contains a full-duplex software programmable  
USART. The USART Figure 44 consists of a transmit shift  
register, a receiver shift register and seven addressable reg-  
isters, as follows: a transmit buffer register (TBUF), a re-  
ceiver buffer register (RBUF), a USART control and status  
register (ENU), a USART receive control and status register  
(ENUR), a USART interrupt and clock source register  
(ENUI), a prescaler select register (PSR) and baud (BAUD)  
register. The ENU register contains flags for transmit and re-  
ceive functions; this register also determines the length of  
the data frame (7, 8 or 9 bits), the value of the ninth bit in  
transmission, and parity selection bits. The ENUR register  
flags framing, data overrun and parity errors while the US-  
ART is receiving.

SYNCHRONOUS MODE  
In this mode data is transferred synchronously with the  
clock. Data is transmitted on the rising edge and received on  
the falling edge of the synchronous clock.  
Associated I/O Pins  
Data is transmitted on the TDX pin and received on the RDX  
pin. TDX is the alternate function assigned to Port L pin L2;  
it is selected by setting ETDX (in the ENUI register) to one.  
RDX is an inherent function of Port L pin L3, requiring no  
setup.  
This mode is selected by setting SSEL bit in the ENUI regis-  
ter. The input frequency to the USART is the same as the  
baud rate.  
When an external clock input is selected at the CKX pin, data  
transmit and receive are performed synchronously with this  
clock through TDX/RDX pins.  
The baud rate clock for the USART can be generated on-  
chip, or can be taken from an external source. Port L pin L1  
(CKX) is the external clock I/O pin. The CKX pin can be ei-  
ther an input or an output, as determined by Port L Configu-  
ration and Data registers (Bit 1). As an input, it accepts a  
clock signal which may be selected to drive the transmitter  
and/or receiver. As an output, it presents the internal Baud  
Rate Generator output.  
If data transmit and receive are selected with the CKX pin as  
clock output, the device generates the synchronous clock  
output at the CKX pin. The internal baud rate generator is  
used to produce the synchronous clock. Data transmit and  
receive are performed synchronously with this clock.  
FRAMING FORMATS  
The USART supports several serial framing formats (Figure  
45) . The format is selected using control bits in the ENU,  
ENUR and ENUI registers.  
USART Operation  
The USART has two modes of operation; asynchronous  
mode and synchronous mode.  
The first format (1, 1a, 1b, 1c) for data transmission (CHL0 =  
1, CHL1 = 0) consists of Start bit, seven Data bits (excluding  
parity) and 7/8, one or two Stop bits. In applications using  
parity, the parity bit is generated and verified by hardware.  
ASYNCHRONOUS MODE  
This mode is selected by resetting the SSEL (in the ENUI  
register) bit to zero. The input frequency to the USART is 16  
times the baud rate.  
The second format (CHL0 = 0, CHL1 = 0) consists of one  
Start bit, eight Data bits (excluding parity) and 7/8, one or  
two Stop bits. Parity bit is generated and verified by hard-  
ware.  
The TSFT and TBUF registers double-buffer data for trans-  
mission. While TSFT is shifting out the current character on  
the TDX pin, the TBUF register may be loaded by software  
with the next byte to be transmitted. When TSFT finishes  
transmitting the current character the contents of TBUF are  
transferred to the TSFT register and the Transmit Buffer  
Empty Flag (TBMT in the ENU register) is set. The TBMT  
flag is automatically reset by the USART when software  
loads a new character into the TBUF register. There is also  
the XMTG bit which is set to indicate that the USART is  
transmitting. This bit gets reset at the end of the last frame  
(end of last Stop bit). TBUF is a read/write register.  
The third format for transmission (CHL0 = 0, CHL1 = 1) con-  
sists of one Start bit, nine Data bits and 7/8, one or two Stop  
bits. This format also supports the USART “ATTENTION”  
feature. When operating in this format, all eight bits of TBUF  
and RBUF are used for data. The ninth data bit is transmitted  
and received using two bits in the ENU and ENUR registers,  
called XBIT9 and RBIT9. RBIT9 is a read only bit. Parity is  
not generated or verified in this mode.  
For any of the above framing formats, the last Stop bit can  
be programmed to be 7/8th of a bit in length. If two Stop bits  
are selected and the 7/8th bit is set (selected), the second  
Stop bit will be 7/8th of a bit in length.  
The RSFT and RBUF registers double-buffer data being re-  
ceived. The USART receiver continually monitors the signal  
on the RDX pin for a low level to detect the beginning of a  
Start bit. Upon sensing this low level, it waits for half a bit  
time and samples again. If the RDX pin is still low, the re-  
ceiver considers this to be a valid Start bit, and the remaining  
bits in the character frame are each sampled a single time, at

parity is enabled (PEN = 1), the parity selection is then per-  
formed by PSEL0 and PSEL1 bits located in the ENU  
register.

FIGURE 45. Framing Formats  
Note that the XBIT9/PSEL0 bit located in the ENU register  
serves two mutually exclusive functions. This bit programs  
the ninth bit for transmission when the USART is operating  
with nine data bits per frame. There is no parity selection in  
this framing format. For other framing formats XBIT9 is not  
needed and the bit is PSEL0 used in conjunction with PSEL1  
to select parity.  
can be individually enabled or disabled using Enable Trans-  
mit Interrupt (ETI) and Enable Receive Interrupt (ERI) bits in  
the ENUI register.  
The interrupt from the Transmitter is set pending, and re-  
mains pending, as long as both the TBMT and ETI bits are  
set. To remove this interrupt, software must either clear the  
ETI bit or write to the TBUF register (thus clearing the TBMT  
bit).  
The frame formats for the receiver differ form the transmitter  
in the number to Stop bits required. The receiver only re-  
quires one Stop bit in a frame, regardless of the setting of the  
Stop bit selection bits in the control register. Note that an im-  
plicit assumption is made for full duplex USART operatioin  
that the framing formats are the same for the transmitter and  
receiver.  
The interrupt from the receiver is set pending, and remains  
pending, as long as both the RBFL and ERI bits are set. To  
remove this interrupt, software must either clear the ERI bit  
or read from the RBUF register (thus clearing the RBFL bit).  
Baud Clock Generation  
The clock inputs to the transmitter and receiver sections of  
the USART can be individually selected to come either from  
an external source at the CKX pin (port L, pin L1) or from a  
source selected in the PSR and BAUD registers. Internally,  
the basic baud clock is created from the oscillator frequency  
through a two-stage divider chain consisting of a 1–16 (in-  
crements of 0.5) prescaler and an 11-bit binary counter. (Fig-  
ure 46) The divide factors are specified through two read/  
USART INTERRUPTS  
The USART is capable of generating interrupts. Interrupts  
are generated on Receive Buffer Full and Transmit Buffer  
Empty. Both interrupts have individual interrupt vectors. Two  
bytes of program memory space are reserved for each inter-  
rupt vector. The two vectors are located at addresses 0xEC  
to 0xEF Hex in the program memory space. The interrupts

As shown in Table 15, a Prescaler Factor of 0 corresponds to  
NO CLOCK. NO CLOCK condition is the USART power  
down mode where the USART clock is turned off for power  
saving purpose. The user must also turn the USART clock  
off when a different baud rate is chosen.

The correspondences between the 5-bit Prescaler Select  
and Prescaler factors are shown in Table 15. There are  
many ways to calculate the two divisor factors, but one par-  
ticularly effective method would be to achieve a 1.8432 MHz  
frequency coming out of the first stage. The 1.8432 MHz  
prescaler output is then used to drive the software program-  
mable baud rate counter to create a x16 clock for the follow-  
ing baud rates: 110, 134.5, 150, 300, 600, 1200, 1800, 2400,  
3600, 4800, 7200, 9600, 19200 and 38400 (Table 16). Other  
baud rates may be created by using appropriate divisors.  
The x16 clock is then divided by 16 to provide the rate for the  
serial shift registers of the transmitter and receiver.

The USART logic is reinitialized when either the HALT or

Transmit Buffer (TBUF) is not affected, but the Transmit Shift  
register (TSFT) bits are set to one. The receiver registers

Before entering the HALT or IDLE modes the user program

selection is done by setting bit 3 of WKEN (Wakeup Enable)  
register. The Wakeup trigger condition is then selected to be  
high to low transition. This is done via the WKEDG register.

If the device is halted and crystal oscillator is used, the  
Wakeup signal will not start the chip running immediately be-  
cause of the finite start up time requirement of the crystal os-  
cillator. The idle timer (T0) generates a fixed (256 tc) delay to  
ensure that the oscillator has indeed stabilized before allow-  
ing the device to execute code. The user has to consider this  
delay when data transfer is expected immediately after exit-  
ing the HALT mode.

Note: The entries in Table 16 assume a prescaler output of 1.8432 MHz. In  
the asynchronous mode the baud rate could be as high as 625k.  
As an example, considering the Asynchronous Mode and a  
CKI clock of 4.608 MHz, the prescaler factor selected is:  
4.608/1.8432 = 2.5  
The 2.5 entry is available in Table 15. The 1.8432 MHz pres-  
caler output is then used with proper Baud Rate Divisor  
(Table 16) to obtain different baud rates. For a baud rate of  
19200 e.g., the entry in Table 16 is 5.  
Diagnostic  
Bits CHL0 and CHL1 in the ENU register provide a loopback  
feature for diagnostic testing of the USART. When these bits  
are set to one, the following occur: The receiver input pin  
(RDX) is internally connected to the transmitter output pin  
(TDX); the output of the Transmitter Shift Register is “looped  
back” into the Receive Shift Register input. In this mode,  
data that is transmitted is immediately received. This feature  
allows the processor to verify the transmit and receive data  
paths of the USART.  
N − 1 = 5 (N − 1 is the value from Table 16)  
N = 6 (N is the Baud Rate Divisor)  
Baud Rate = 1.8432 MHz/(16 x 6) = 19200  
The divide by 16 is performed because in the asynchronous  
mode, the input frequency to the USART is 16 times the  
baud rate. The equation to calculate baud rates is given be-  
low.  
Note that the framing format for this mode is the nine bit for-  
mat; one Start bit, nine data bits, and 7/8, one or two Stop  
bits. Parity is not generated or verified in this mode.  
The actual Baud Rate may be found from:  
BR = Fc/(16 X N X P)  
Where:  
BR is the Baud Rate  
Attention Mode  
Fc is the CKI frequency  
N is the Baud Rate Divisior (Table 16).  
The USART Receiver section supports an alternate mode of  
operation, referred to as ATTENTION Mode. This mode of  
operation is selected by the ATTN bit in the ENUR register.  
The data format for transmission must also be selected as  
having nine Data bits and either 7/8, one or two Stop bits.  
P is the Prescaler Divide Factor selected by the value in the  
Prescaler Select Register (Table 15)  
Note: In the Synchronous Mode, the divisor 16 is replaced by two.  
The ATTENTION mode of operation is intended for use in  
networking the device with other processors, Typically in  
such environments the messages consists of device ad-  
dresses, indicating which of several destinations should re-  
ceive them, and the actual data. This Mode supports a  
scheme in which addresses are flagged by having the ninth  
bit of the data field set to a 1. If the ninth bit is reset to a zero  
the byte is a Data byte.  
Example:  
Asynchronous Mode:  
Crystal Frequency = 5 MHz  
Desired baud rate = 9600  
Using the above equation N X P can be calculated first.  
N x P = (5 X 106)/(16 x 9600) = 32.552  
Now 32.552 is divided by each Prescaler Factor (Table 15) to  
obtain a value closet to an integer. This factor happens to be  
6.5 (P = 6.5).  
While in ATTENTION mode, the USART monitors the com-  
munication flow, but ignores all characters until an address  
character is received. Upon receiving an address character,  
the USART signals that the character is ready by setting the  
RBFL flag, which in turn interrupts the processor if USART  
Receiver interrupts are enabled. The ATTN bit is also cleared  
N = 32.552/6.5 = 5.008 (N = 5)  
The programmed value (from Table 16) should be 4 (N −1).  
Using the above values calculated for N and P:

Attention Mode (Continued)  
Clock Monitor  
The Clock Monitor aboard the device can be selected or de-  
selected under program control. The Clock Monitor is guar-  
anteed not to reject the clock if the instruction cycle clock  
(1/tc) is greater or equal to 10 kHz. This equates to a clock in-  
put rate on CKI of greater or equal to 100 kHz.  
automatically at this point, so that data characters as well as  
address characters are recognized. Software examines the  
contents of the RBUF and responds by deciding either to ac-  
cept the subsequent data stream (by leaving the ATTN bit re-  
set) or to wait until the next address character is seen (by  
setting the ATTN bit again).  
WATCHDOG Operation  
Operation of the USART Transmitter is not affected by selec-  
tion of this Mode. The value of the ninth bit to be transmitted  
is programmed by setting XBIT9 appropriately. The value of  
the ninth bit received is obtained by reading RBIT9. Since  
this bit is located in ENUR register where the error flags re-  
side, a bit operation on it will reset the error flags.  
The WATCHDOG and Clock Monitor are disabled during re-  
set. The device comes out of reset with the WATCHDOG  
armed, the WATCHDOG Window Select (bits 6, 7 of the  
WDSVR Register) set, and the Clock Monitor bit (bit 0 of the  
WDSVR Register) enabled. Thus, a Clock Monitor error will  
occur after coming out of reset, if the instruction cycle clock  
frequency has not reached a minimum specified value, in-  
cluding the case where the oscillator fails to start.  
WATCHDOG  
The device contains a WATCHDOG and clock monitor. The  
WATCHDOG is designed to detect the user program getting  
stuck in infinite loops resulting in loss of program control or  
“runaway” programs. The Clock Monitor is used to detect the  
absence of a clock or a very slow clock below a specified  
rate on the CKI pin.  
The WDSVR register can be written to only once after reset  
and the key data (bits 5 through 1 of the WDSVR Register)  
must match to be a valid write. This write to the WDSVR reg-  
ister involves two irrevocable choices: (i) the selection of the  
WATCHDOG service window (ii) enabling or disabling of the  
Clock Monitor. Hence, the first write to WDSVR Register in-  
volves selecting or deselecting the Clock Monitor, select the  
WATCHDOG service window and match the WATCHDOG  
key data. Subsequent writes to the WDSVR register will  
compare the value being written by the user to the WATCH-  
DOG service window value and the key data (bits 7 through  
1) in the WDSVR Register. Table 19 shows the sequence of  
events that can occur.  
The WATCHDOG consists of two independent logic blocks:  
WD UPPER and WD LOWER. WD UPPER establishes the  
upper limit on the service window and WD LOWER defines  
the lower limit of the service window.  
Servicing the WATCHDOG consists of writing a specific  
value to a WATCHDOG Service Register named WDSVR  
which is memory mapped in the RAM. This value is com-  
posed of three fields, consisting of a 2-bit Window Select, a  
5-bit Key Data field, and the 1-bit Clock Monitor Select field.  
Table 18 shows the WDSVR register.  
The user must service the WATCHDOG at least once before  
the upper limit of the service window expires. The WATCH-  
DOG may not be serviced more than once in every lower  
limit of the service window. The user may service the  
WATCHDOG as many times as wished in the time period be-  
tween the lower and upper limits of the service window. The  
first write to the WDSVR Register is also counted as a  
WATCHDOG service.

The WATCHDOG has an output pin associated with it. This  
is the WDOUT pin, on pin 1 of the Port G. WDOUT is active  
low. The WDOUT pin is in the high impedance state in the in-  
active state. Upon triggering the WATCHDOG, the logic will  
pull the WDOUT (G1) pin low for an additonal 16 tc–32 tc  
cycle after the signal level on WDOUT pin goes below the  
lower Schmitt trigger threshold. After this delay, the device  
will stop forcing the WDOUT output low.  
Bit 7  
Bit 0  
The lower limit of the service window is fixed at 2048 instruc-  
tion cycles. Bits 7 and 6 of the WDSVR register allow the  
user to pick an upper limit of the service window.  
Table 18 shows the four possible combinations of lower and  
upper limits for the WATCHDOG service window. This flex-  
ibility in choosing the WATCHDOG service window prevents  
any undue burden on the user software.  
The WATCHDOG service window will restart when the WD-  
OUT pin goes high. It is recommended that the user tie the  
WDOUT pin back to VCC through a resistor in order to pull  
WDOUT high.  
TABLE 18. WATCHDOG Service Window Select  
A WATCHDOG service while the WDOUT signal is active will  
be ignored. The state of the WDOUT pin is not guaranteed  
on reset, but if the powers up low then the WATCHDOG will  
time out and WDOUT will enter high impedance state.

The Clock Monitor forces the G1 pin low upon detecting a  
clock frequency error. The Clock Monitor error will continue  
until the clock frequency has reached the minimum specified  
value, after which the G1 output will enter the high imped-  
ance TRI-STATE mode following 16 tc–32 tc clock cycles.  
The Clock Monitor generates a continual Clock Monitor error  
if the oscillator fails to start, or fails to reach the minimum  
specified frequency. The specification for the Clock Monitor  
is as follows:  
2048–16k tC Cycles  
2048–32k tC Cycles  
2048–64k tC Cycles

With the crystal oscillator mask option selected, or with  
the single-pin R/C oscillator mask option selected and the  
CLKDLY bit set, the WATCHDOG service window will be  
set to its selected value from WDSVR following HALT.  
Consequently, the WATCHDOG should not be serviced  
for at least 2048 instruction cycles following HALT, but  
must be serviced within the selected window to avoid a  
WATCHDOG error.  
WATCHDOG Operation (Continued)  
WATCHDOG AND CLOCK MONITOR SUMMARY  
The following salient points regarding the COP888 WATCH-  
DOG and CLOCK MONITOR should be noted:  
Both the WATCHDOG and Clock Monitor detector cir-  
cuits are inhibited during RESET.  
Following RESET, the WATCHDOG and CLOCK MONI-  
TOR are both enabled, with the WATCHDOG having the  
maximum service window selected.  
The IDLE timer T0 is not initialized with RESET.  
The user can sync in to the IDLE counter cycle with an  
IDLE counter (T0) interrupt or by monitoring the T0PND  
flag. The T0PND flag is set whenever the thirteenth bit of  
the IDLE counter toggles (every 4096 instruction cycles).  
The user is responsible for resetting the T0PND flag.  
The WATCHDOG service window and Clock Monitor  
enable/disable option can only be changed once, during  
the initial WATCHDOG service following RESET.  
The initial WATCHDOG service must match the key data  
value in the WATCHDOG Service register WDSVR in or-  
der to avoid a WATCHDOG error.  
A hardware WATCHDOG service occurs just as the de-  
vice exits the IDLE mode. Consequently, the WATCH-  
DOG should not be serviced for at least 2048 instruction  
cycles following IDLE, but must be serviced within the se-  
lected window to avoid a WATCHDOG error.  
Subsequent WATCHDOG services must match all three  
data fields in WDSVR in order to avoid WATCHDOG er-  
rors.  
Following RESET, the initial WATCHDOG service (where  
the service window and the CLOCK MONITOR enable/  
disable must be selected) may be programmed any-  
where within the maximum service window (65,536 in-  
struction cycles) initialized by RESET. Note that this initial  
WATCHDOG service may be programmed within the inti-  
tial 2048 instruction cycles without causing a WATCH-  
DOG error.  
The correct key data value cannot be read from the  
WATCHDOG Service register WDSVR. Any attempt to  
read this key data value of 01100 from WDSVR will read  
as key data value of all 0’s.  
The WATCHDOG detector circuit is inhibited during both  
the HALT and IDLE modes.  
The Clock Monitor detector circuit is active during both  
the HALT and IDLE modes. Consequently, the device in-  
advertently entering the HALT mode will be detected as a  
Clock Monitor error (provided that the Clock Monitor en-  
able option has been selected by the program).  
With the single-pin R/C oscillator mask option selected  
and the CLKDLY bit reset, the WATCHDOG service win-  
dow will resume following HALT mode from where it left  
off before entering the HALT mode.

gram location. JP has a range from −31 to +32 to allow a  
1-byte relatie jump (JP + 1 is implemented by a NOP instruc-  
tion). There are no “pages” when using JP, since all 15 bits of  
PC are used.

This mode is used with the JMPL and JSRL instructions, with  
the instruction field of 15 bits replacing the entire 15 bits of  
the program counter (PC). This allows jumping to any loca-  
tion up to 32k in the program memory space.

This mode is used with the JID instruction. The contents of  
the accumulator are used as a partial address (lower 8 bits of  
PC) for accessing a location in the program memory. The  
contents of this program memory location serve as a partial  
address (lower 8 bits of PC) for the jump to the next instruc-  
tion.  
Note: The VIS is a special case of the Indirect Transfer of Control addressing  
mode, where the double byte vector associated with the interrupt is  
transferred from adjacent addresses in the program memory into the  
program counter (PC) in order to jump to the associated interrupt ser-  
vice routine.

INSTRUCTION EXECUTION TIME  
Most instructions are single byte (with immediate addressing  
mode instructions taking two bytes).  
Most single byte instructions take one cycle time to execute.  
Skipped instructions require x number of cycles to be  
skipped, where x equals the number of bytes in the skipped  
instruction opcode.
