capability is important when using High Level Languages.  
With a hardware stack, the user is limited to a small fixed  
number of stack levels.  
1.0 General Description  
1.1 EMI REDUCTION  
The COP8CFE9 device incorporates circuitry that guards  
against electromagnetic interference - an increasing problem  
in today’s microcontroller board designs. National’s patented  
EMI reduction technology offers low EMI clock circuitry,  
gradual turn-on output drivers (GTOs) and internal Icc  
smoothing filters, to help circumvent many of the EMI issues  
influencing embedded control designs. National has  
achieved 15 dB–20 dB reduction in EMI transmissions when  
designs have incorporated its patented EMI reducing cir-  
cuitry.  
1.5 INSTRUCTION SET  
In today’s 8-bit microcontroller application arena cost/  
performance, flexibility and time to market are several of the  
key issues that system designers face in attempting to build  
well-engineered products that compete in the marketplace.  
Many of these issues can be addressed through the manner  
in which a microcontroller’s instruction set handles process-  
ing tasks. And that’s why the COP8 family offers a unique  
and code-efficient instruction set - one that provides the  
flexibility, functionality, reduced costs and faster time to mar-  
ket that today’s microcontroller based products require.  
1.2 IN-SYSTEM PROGRAMMING AND VIRTUAL  
EEPROM  
Code efficiency is important because it enables designers to  
pack more on-chip functionality into less program memory  
space (ROM, OTP or Flash). Selecting a microcontroller with  
less program memory size translates into lower system  
costs, and the added security of knowing that more code can  
be packed into the available program memory space.  
The device includes a program in a boot ROM that provides  
the capability, through the MICROWIRE/PLUS serial inter-  
face, to erase, program and read the contents of the Flash  
memory.  
Additional routines are included in the boot ROM, which can  
be called by the user program, to enable the user to custom-  
ize in system software update capability if MICROWIRE/  
PLUS is not desired.  
1.5.1 Key Instruction Set Features  
The COP8 family incorporates a unique combination of in-  
struction set features, which provide designers with optimum  
code efficiency and program memory utilization.  
Additional functions will copy blocks of data between the  
RAM and the Flash Memory. These functions provide a  
virtual EEPROM capability by allowing the user to emulate a  
variable amount of EEPROM by initializing nonvolatile vari-  
ables from the Flash Memory and occasionally restoring  
these variables to the Flash Memory.  
1.5.2 Single Byte/Single Cycle Code Execution  
The efficiency is due to the fact that the majority of instruc-  
tions are of the single byte variety, resulting in minimum  
program space. Because compact code does not occupy a  
substantial amount of program memory space, designers  
can integrate additional features and functionality into the  
microcontroller program memory space. Also, the majority  
instructions executed by the device are single cycle, result-  
ing in minimum program execution time. In fact, 77% of the  
instructions are single byte single cycle, providing greater  
code and I/O efficiency, and faster code execution.  
The contents of the boot ROM have been defined by Na-  
tional. Execution of code from the boot ROM is dependent  
on the state of the FLEX bit in the Option Register on exit  
from RESET. If the FLEX bit is a zero, the Flash Memory is  
assumed to be empty and execution from the boot ROM  
begins. For further information on the FLEX bit, refer to  
Section 4.5, Option Register.  
1.3 TRUE IN-SYSTEM EMULATION  
1.6.3 Many Single-Byte, Multi-Function Instructions  
On-chip emulation capability has been added which allows  
the user to perform true in-system emulation using final  
production boards and devices. This simplifies testing and  
evaluation of software in real environmental conditions. The  
user, merely by providing for a standard connector which can  
be bypassed by jumpers on the final application board, can  
provide for software and hardware debugging using actual  
production units.  
The COP8 instruction set utilizes many single-byte, multi-  
function instructions. This enables a single instruction to  
accomplish multiple functions, such as DRSZ, DCOR, JID,  
LD (Load) and  
X (Exchange) instructions with post-  
incrementing and post-decrementing, to name just a few  
examples. In many cases, the instruction set can simulta-  
neously execute as many as three functions with the same  
single-byte instruction.  
JID: (Jump Indirect); Single byte instruction decodes exter-  
nal events and jumps to corresponding service routines  
(analogous to “DO CASE” statements in higher level lan-  
guages).  
1.4 ARCHITECTURE  
The COP8 family is based on a modified Harvard architec-  
ture, which allows data tables to be accessed directly from  
program memory. This is very important with modern  
microcontroller-based applications, since program memory  
is usually ROM or EPROM, while data memory is usually  
RAM. Consequently constant data tables need to be con-  
tained in non-volatile memory, so they are not lost when the  
microcontroller is powered down. In a modified Harvard ar-  
chitecture, instruction fetch and memory data transfers can  
be overlapped with a two stage pipeline, which allows the  
next instruction to be fetched from program memory while  
the current instruction is being executed using data memory.  
This is not possible with a Von Neumann single-address bus  
architecture.  
LAID: (Load Accumulator-Indirect); Single byte look up table  
instruction provides efficient data path from the program  
memory to the CPU. This instruction can be used for table  
lookup and to read the entire program memory for checksum  
calculations.  
RETSK: (Return Skip); Single byte instruction allows return  
from subroutine and skips next instruction. Decision to  
branch can be made in the subroutine itself, saving code.  
AUTOINC/DEC: (Auto-Increment/Auto-Decrement); These  
instructions use the two memory pointers B and X to effi-  
ciently process a block of data (simplifying “FOR NEXT” or  
other loop structures in higher level languages).  
The COP8 family supports a software stack scheme that  
allows the user to incorporate many subroutine calls. This

EXCHANGE). And 15 memory-mapped registers allow de-  
signers to optimize the precise implementation of certain  
specific instructions.  
1.0 General Description (Continued)  
1.5.4 Bit-Level Control  
Bit-level control over many of the microcontroller’s I/O ports  
provides a flexible means to ease layout concerns and save  
board space. All members of the COP8 family provide the  
ability to set, reset and test any individual bit in the data  
memory address space, including memory-mapped I/O ports  
and associated registers.  
1.6 PACKAGING/PIN EFFICIENCY  
Real estate and board configuration considerations demand  
maximum space and pin efficiency, particularly given today’s  
high integration and small product form factors. Microcon-  
troller users try to avoid using large packages to get the I/O  
needed. Large packages take valuable board space and  
increase device cost, two trade-offs that microcontroller de-  
signs can ill afford.  
1.5.5 Register Set  
Three memory-mapped pointers handle register indirect ad-  
dressing and software stack pointer functions. The memory  
data pointers allow the option of post-incrementing or post-  
decrementing with the data movement instructions (LOAD/  
The COP8 family offers a wide range of packages and does  
not waste pins.

Users of the LLP package are cautioned to be aware that the  
central metal area and the pin 1 index mark on the bottom of  
the package may be connected to GND. See figure below:  
3.0 Pin Descriptions  
The COP8CFE I/O structure enables designers to reconfig-  
ure the microcontroller’s I/O functions with a single instruc-  
tion. Each individual I/O pin can be independently configured  
as output pin low, output high, input with high impedance or  
input with weak pull-up device. A typical example is the use  
of I/O pins as the keyboard matrix input lines. The input lines  
can be programmed with internal weak pull-ups so that the  
input lines read logic high when the keys are all open. With  
a key closure, the corresponding input line will read a logic  
zero since the weak pull-up can easily be overdriven. When  
the key is released, the internal weak pull-up will pull the  
input line back to logic high. This eliminates the need for  
external pull-up resistors. The high current options are avail-  
able for driving LEDs, motors and speakers. This flexibility  
helps to ensure a cleaner design, with less external compo-  
nents and lower costs. Below is the general description of all  
available pins.  
20026475  
VCC and GND are the power supply pins. All VCC and GND  
pins must be connected.

Port G is an 8-bit port. Pin G0, G2–G5 are bi-directional I/O  
ports. Pin G6 is always a general purpose Hi-Z input. All pins  
have Schmitt Triggers on their inputs. Pin G1 serves as the  
dedicated WATCHDOG output with weak pull-up if the  
WATCHDOG feature is selected by the Option register.  
The pin is a general purpose I/O if WATCHDOG feature is  
not selected. If WATCHDOG feature is selected, bit 1 of the  
Port G configuration and data register does not have any  
effect on Pin G1 setup. G7 serves as the dedicated output  
pin for the CKO clock output.  
The device contains up to five bidirectional 8-bit I/O ports (A,  
B, G, H and L), where each individual bit may be indepen-  
dently configured as an input (Schmitt trigger inputs on ports  
L and G), 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 three associated 8-bit  
memory mapped registers, the CONFIGURATION register,  
the output DATA register and the Pin input register. (See the  
memory map for the various addresses associated with the  
I/O ports.) Figure 3 shows the I/O port configurations. 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 zeros.

The device will be placed in the HALT mode by writing a “1”

Writing a “1” to bit 6 of the Port G Configuration Register  
enables the MICROWIRE/PLUS to operate with the alter-  
nate phase of the SK clock. The G7 configuration bit, if set  
high, enables the clock start up delay after HALT when the  
R/C clock configuration is used.  
Port A is an 8-bit I/O port. All A pins have Schmitt triggers on  
the inputs. The 44-pin package does not have a full 8-bit port  
and contains some unbonded, floating pads internally on the  
chip. The binary value read from these bits is undetermined.  
The application software should mask out these unknown  
bits when reading the Port A register, or use only bit-access  
program instructions when accessing Port A. These uncon-  
nected bits draw power only when they are addressed (i.e.,  
in brief spikes). Additionally, if Port A is being used with some  
combination of digital inputs and analog inputs, the analog  
inputs will read as undetermined values and should be  
masked out by software.

3.1 EMULATION CONNECTION  
3.0 Pin Descriptions (Continued)  
Connection to the emulation system is made via a 2 x 7  
connector which interrupts the continuity of the RESET, G0,  
G1, G2 and G3 signals between the COP8 device and the  
rest of the target system (as shown in Figure 6). This con-  
nector can be designed into the production pc board and can  
be replaced by jumpers or signal traces when emulation is  
no longer necessary. The emulator will replicate all functions  
of G0 - G3 and RESET. For proper operation, no connection  
should be made on the device side of the emulator connec-  
tor.

4.0 Functional Description  
The architecture of the device is a modified Harvard archi-  
tecture. With the Harvard architecture, the program memory  
(Flash) is separate from the data store memory (RAM). Both  
Program Memory and Data Memory have their own separate  
addressing space with separate address buses. The archi-  
tecture, though based on the Harvard architecture, permits  
transfer of data from Flash Memory to RAM.

FIGURE 4. I/O Port ConfigurationsOutput Mode  
4.1 CPU REGISTERS  
The CPU can do an 8-bit addition, subtraction, logical or shift  
operation in one instruction (tC) cycle time.  
There are six 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.  
20026462  
S is the 8-bit Data Segment Address Register used to extend  
the lower half of the address range (00 to 7F) into 256 data  
segments of 128 bytes each.  
FIGURE 5. I/O Port ConfigurationsInput Mode

program counter (PC). All interrupts in the device vector to  
program memory location 00FF Hex. The program memory  
reads 00 Hex in the erased state. Program execution starts  
at location 0 after RESET.  
4.0 Functional Description (Continued)  
RAM address 06F Hex. The SP is decremented as items are  
pushed onto the stack. SP points to the next available loca-  
tion on the stack.  
If a Return instruction is executed when the SP contains 6F  
(hex), instruction execution will continue from Program  
Memory location 7FFF (hex). If location 7FFF is accessed by  
an instruction fetch, the Flash Memory will return a value of  
00. This is the opcode for the INTR instruction and will cause  
a Software Trap.  
All the CPU registers are memory mapped with the excep-  
tion of the Accumulator (A) and the Program Counter (PC).  
4.2 PROGRAM MEMORY  
The program memory consists of 8192 bytes of Flash  
Memory. These bytes may hold program instructions or con-  
stant data (data tables for the LAID instruction, jump vectors  
for the JID instruction, and interrupt vectors for the VIS  
instruction). The program memory is addressed by the 15-bit  
For the purpose of erasing and rewriting the Flash Memory,  
it is organized in pages of 64 bytes as show in Table 2.

bits from the S register. Thus the 128-byte data segment  
extensions are located from addresses 0100 – 017F for data  
segment 1, 0200 – 027F for data segment 2, etc., up to FF00  
– FF7F for data segment 255. The base address range from  
0000 – 007F represents data segment 0.  
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  
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.  
Refer to Table 2, to determine available RAM segments for  
this device.  
Figure 7 illustrates how the S register data memory exten-  
sion is used in extending the lower half of the base address  
range (00 to 7F hex) into 256 data segments of 128 bytes  
each, with a total addressing range of 32 kbytes from XX00  
to XX7F. This organization allows a total of 256 data seg-  
ments of 128 bytes each with an additional upper base  
segment of 128 bytes. Furthermore, all addressing modes  
are available for all data segments. The S register must be  
changed under program control to move from one data  
segment (128 bytes) to another. However, the upper base  
segment (containing the 16 memory registers, I/O registers,  
control registers, etc.) is always available regardless of the  
contents of the S register, since the upper base segment  
(address range 0080 to 00FF) is independent of data seg-  
ment extension.  
The data memory consists of 256 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, B and S are memory mapped into this space  
at address locations 0FC to 0FF Hex respectively, with the  
other registers being available for general usage.  
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 accumu-  
lator (A) bits can also be directly and individually tested.  
Note: RAM contents are undefined upon power-up.  
The instructions that utilize the stack pointer (SP) always  
reference the stack as part of the base segment (Segment  
0), regardless of the contents of the S register. The S register  
is not changed by these instructions. Consequently, the  
stack (used with subroutine linkage and interrupts) is always  
located in the base segment. The stack pointer will be initial-  
ized to point at data memory location 006F as a result of  
reset.  
4.4 DATA MEMORY SEGMENT RAM EXTENSION  
Data memory address 0FF is used as a memory mapped  
location for the Data Segment Address Register (S).  
The data store memory is either addressed directly by a  
single byte address within the instruction, or indirectly rela-  
tive to the reference of the B, X, or SP pointers (each  
contains a single-byte address). This single-byte address  
allows an addressing range of 256 locations from 00 to FF  
hex. The upper bit of this single-byte address divides the  
data store memory into two separate sections as outlined  
previously. With the exception of the RAM register memory  
from address locations 00F0 – 00FF, all RAM memory is  
memory mapped with the upper bit of the single-byte ad-  
dress being equal to zero. This allows the upper bit of the  
single-byte address to determine whether or not the base  
address range (from 0000 – 00FF) is extended. If this upper  
bit equals one (representing address range 0080 – 00FF),  
then address extension does not take place. Alternatively, if  
this upper bit equals zero, then the data segment extension  
register S is used to extend the base address range from  
0000 – 007F to XX00 – XX7F, where XX represents the 8  
The 128 bytes of RAM contained in the base segment are  
split between the lower and upper base segments. The first  
112 bytes of RAM are resident from address 0000 to 006F in  
the lower base segment, while the remaining 16 bytes of  
RAM represent the 16 data memory registers located at  
addresses 00F0 to 00FF of the upper base segment. No  
RAM is located at the upper sixteen addresses (0070 to  
007F) of the lower base segment.  
Additional RAM beyond these initial 128 bytes, however, will  
always be memory mapped in groups of 128 bytes (or less)  
at the data segment address extensions (XX00 to XX7F) of  
the lower base segment. The additional 128 bytes of RAM in  
this device are memory mapped at address locations 0100  
through 017F.

4.4.1 Virtual EEPROM  
The Flash memory and the User ISP functions (see Section  
5.7), provide the user with the capability to use the flash  
program memory to back up user defined sections of RAM.  
This effectively provides the user with the same nonvolatile  
data storage as EEPROM. Management, and even the  
amount of memory used, are the responsibility of the user,  
however the flash memory read and write functions have  
been provided in the boot ROM.

4.5 OPTION REGISTER  
The Option register, located at address 0x1FFF (hex) in the  
Flash Program Memory, is used to configure the user select-  
able security, WATCHDOG, and HALT options. The register  
can be programmed only in external Flash Memory program-  
ming or ISP Programming modes. Therefore, the register  
must be programmed at the same time as the program  
memory. The contents of the Option register shipped from  
the factory read 00 Hex.

Flash Memory is erased. Execution following RE-  
SET will be from Boot ROM with the MICROWIRE/  
PLUS ISP routines.  
The COP8 assembler defines a special ROM section type,  
CONF, into which the Option Register data may be coded.  
The Option Register is programmed automatically by pro-  
grammers that are certified by National.  
The user needs to ensure that the FLEX bit will be set when  
the device is programmed.

The device has a security feature which, when enabled,  
prevents external reading of the Flash program memory. The  
security bit in the Option Register determines, whether se-  
curity is enabled or disabled. If the security feature is dis-  
abled, the contents of the internal Flash Memory may be  
read by external programmers or by the built in  
MICROWIRE/PLUS serial interface ISP. Security must be  
enforced by the user when the contents of the Flash  
Memory are accessed via the user ISP or Virtual EE-  
PROM capability.

enabled, the write operation to the Flash program memory  
and Option Register is inhibited. Page Erases are also inhib-  
ited when the security feature is enabled. The Option Reg-  
ister is readable regardless of the state of the security bit by  
accessing location FFFF (hex). Mass Erase Operations are  
possible regardless of the state of the security bit.

The device comes out of reset with both the WATCHDOG  
logic and the Clock Monitor detector armed, with the  
WATCHDOG service window bits set and the Clock Moni-  
tor bit set. The WATCHDOG and Clock Monitor circuits  
are inhibited during reset. The WATCHDOG service win-  
dow bits being initialized high default to the maximum  
WATCHDOG service window of 64k T0 clock cycles. The  
Clock Monitor bit being initialized high will cause a Clock  
Monitor 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  
16–32 T0 clock cycles following the clock frequency  
reaching the minimum specified value, at which time the  
G1 output will go high.  
The entire Option Register must be programmed at one time  
and cannot be rewritten without first erasing the entire last  
page of Flash Memory.

4.7.1 External Reset  
The RESET input when pulled low initializes the device. The  
RESET pin must be held low for a minimum of one instruc-  
tion cycle to guarantee a valid reset. During Power-Up ini-  
tialization, the user must ensure that the RESET pin of the  
device is held low until the device is within the specified VCC  
voltage. An R/C circuit on the RESET pin with a delay 5  
times (5x) greater than the power supply rise time is recom-  
mended. Reset should also be wide enough to ensure crys-  
tal start-up upon Power-Up.

The crystal and other oscillator components should be  
placed in close proximity to the CKI and CKO pins to mini-  
mize printed circuit trace length.  
The values for the external capacitors should be chosen to  
obtain the manufacturer’s specified load capacitance for the  
crystal when combined with the parasitic capacitance of the  
trace, socket, and package (which can vary from 0 to 8 pF).  
The guideline in choosing these capacitors is:

4.8 OSCILLATOR CIRCUITS  
The device has two crystal oscillators to facilitate low power  
operation while maintaining throughput when required. Fur-  
ther information on the use of the two oscillators is found in  
Section 7.0 Power Saving Features. The low speed oscillator  
utilizes the L0 and L1 port pins. References in the following  
text to CKI will also apply to L0 and references to G7/CKO  
will also apply to L1.  
C2 can be trimmed to obtain the desired frequency. C2  
should be less than or equal to C1.

This device contains a frequency doubler that doubles the  
frequency of the oscillator selected to operate the main  
microcontroller core. When the oscillator connected to CKI  
operates at 10 MHz, the internal clock frequency is 20 MHz,  
resulting in an instruction cycle time of 0.5 µs. The output of  
the clock doubler is called MCLK and is referenced in many  
places within this document.

5.2 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION  
5.0 In-System Programming  
The organization of the ISP feature consists of the user flash  
program memory, the factory boot ROM, and some registers  
dedicated to performing the ISP function. See Figure 11 for a  
simplified block diagram. The factory installed ISP that uses  
MICROWIRE/PLUS is located in the Boot ROM. The size of  
the Boot ROM is 1k bytes and also contains code to facilitate  
in system emulation capability. If a user chooses to write his  
own ISP routine, it must be located in the flash program  
memory.  
5.1 INTRODUCTION  
This device provides the capability to program the program  
memory while installed in an application board. This feature  
is called In System Programming (ISP). It provides a means  
of ISP by using the MICROWIRE/PLUS, or the user can  
provide his own, customized ISP routine. The factory in-  
stalled ISP uses the MICROWIRE/PLUS port. The user can  
provide his own ISP routine that uses any of the capabilities  
of the device, such as parallel port, etc.  
20026417  
FIGURE 11. Block Diagram of ISP  
As described in 4.5 OPTION REGISTER, there is a bit,  
FLEX, that controls whether the device exits RESET execut-  
ing from the flash memory or the Boot ROM. The user must  
program the FLEX bit as appropriate for the application. In  
the erased state, the FLEX bit = 0 and the device will  
power-up executing from Boot ROM. When FLEX = 0, this  
assumes that either the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routine or  
external programming is being used to program the device. If  
using the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routine, the software in  
the boot ROM will monitor the MICROWIRE/PLUS for com-  
mands to program the flash memory. When programming  
the flash program memory is complete, the FLEX bit will  
have to be programmed to a 1 and the device will have to be  
reset, either by pulling external Reset to ground or by a  
MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP EXIT command, before execution  
from flash program memory will occur.  
ister (ISPWR), Write Timing Register (PGMTIM), and the  
Control Register (ISPCNTRL). The ISPCNTRL Register is  
not available to the user.  
5.3.1 ISP Address Registers  
The address registers (ISPADHI & ISPADLO) are used to  
specify the address of the byte of data being written or read.  
For page erase operations, the address of the beginning of  
the page should be loaded. For mass erase operations,  
0000 must be placed into the address registers. When read-  
ing the Option register, FFFF (hex) should be placed into the  
address registers. Registers ISPADHI and ISPADLO are  
cleared to 00 on Reset. These registers can be loaded from  
either flash program memory or Boot ROM and must be  
maintained for the entire duration of the operation.  
Note: The actual memory address of the Option Register is  
0x1FFF (hex), however the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routines  
require the address FFFF (hex) to be used to read the  
Option Register when the Flash Memory is secured.  
If FLEX = 1, upon exiting Reset, the device will begin ex-  
ecuting from location 0000 in the flash program memory. The  
assumption, here, is that either the application is not using  
ISP, is using MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP by jumping to it within  
the application code, or is using a customized ISP routine. If  
a customized ISP routine is being used, then it must be  
programmed into the flash memory by means of the  
MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP or external programming as de-  
scribed in the preceding paragraph.

The Read Data Register (ISPRD) contains the value read  
back from a read operation. This register can be accessed  
from either flash program memory or Boot ROM. This regis-  
ter is undefined on Reset.  
5.3.4 ISP Write Timing Register  
The Write Timing Register (PGMTIM) is used to control the  
width of the timing pulses for write and erase operations. The  
value to be written into this register is dependent on the  
frequency of CKI and is shown in Table 9. This register must  
be written before any write or erase operation can take  
place. It only needs to be loaded once, for each value of CKI  
frequency. This register can be loaded from either flash  
program memory or Boot ROM and must be maintained for  
the entire duration of the operation. The MICROWIRE/PLUS  
ISP routine that is resident in the boot ROM requires that this  
Register be defined prior to any access to the Flash memory.  
Refer to 5.7 MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP for more information on  
available ISP commands. On Reset, the PGMTIM register is  
loaded with the value that corresponds to 10 MHz frequency  
for CKI.

using MICROWIRE/PLUS, to erase the flash program  
memory and reprogram it. If the device is subsequently reset  
before the Flex bit has been erased by specific Page Erase  
or Mass Erase ISP commands, execution will start from  
location 0000 in the Flash program memory. The high volt-  
age (2 x VCC) on G6 will not erase either the Flex or the  
Security bit in the Option Register. The Security bit, if set,  
can only be erased by a Mass Erase of the entire contents of  
the Flash Memory unless under the control of User ISP  
routines in the Application Program.  
5.0 In-System Programming  
(Continued)  
5.4 MANEUVERING BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN  
FLASH MEMORY AND BOOT ROM  
When using ISP, at some point, it will be necessary to  
maneuver between the flash program memory and the Boot  
ROM, even when using customized ISP routines. This is  
because it’s not possible to execute from the flash program  
memory while it’s being programmed.  
While the G6 pin is at high voltage, the Load Clock will be  
output onto G5, which will look like an SK clock to the  
MICROWIRE/PLUS routine executing in slave mode. How-  
ever, when G6 is at high voltage, the G6 input will also look  
like a logic 1. The MICROWIRE/PLUS routine in Boot ROM  
monitors the G6 input, waits for it to go low, debounces it,  
and then enables the ISP routine. CAUTION: The Load clock  
on G5 could be in conflict with the user’s external SK. It is up  
to the user to resolve this conflict, as this condition is con-  
sidered a minor issue that’s only encountered during soft-  
ware development. The user should also be cautious of  
the high voltage applied to the G6 pin. This high voltage  
could damage other circuitry connected to the G6 pin  
(e.g. the parallel port of a PC). The user may wish to  
disconnect other circuitry while G6 is connected to the high  
voltage.  
Two instructions are available to perform the jumping back  
and forth: Jump to Boot (JSRB) and Return to Flash (RETF).  
The JSRB instruction is used to jump from flash memory to  
Boot ROM, and the RETF is used to return from the Boot  
ROM back to the flash program memory. See 13.0 Instruc-  
tion Set for specific details on the operation of these instruc-  
tions.  
The JSRB instruction must be used in conjunction with the  
Key register. This is to prevent jumping to the Boot ROM in  
the event of run-away software. For the JSRB instruction to  
actually jump to the Boot ROM, the Key bit must be set. This  
is done by writing the value shown in Table 10 to the Key  
register. The Key is a 6 bit key and if the key matches, the  
KEY bit will be set for 8 instruction cycles. The JSRB instruc-  
tion must be executed while the KEY bit is set. If the KEY  
does not match, then the KEY bit will not be set and the  
JSRB will jump to the specified location in the flash memory.  
In emulation mode, if a breakpoint is encountered while the  
KEY is set, the counter that counts the instruction cycles will  
be frozen until the breakpoint condition is cleared. If an  
interrupt occurs while the key is set, the key will expire  
before interrupt service is complete. It is recommended  
that the software globally disable interrupts before set-  
ting the key and re-enable interrupts on completion of  
Boot ROM execution. The Key register is a memory  
mapped register. Its format when writing is shown in Table  
10.  
VCC must be valid and stable before high voltage is applied  
to G6.  
The correct sequence to be used to force execution from  
Boot ROM is :  
1. Disconnect G6 from the source of data for MICROWIRE/  
PLUS ISP.  
2. Apply VCC to the device.  
3. Pull RESET Low.  
4. After VCC is valid and stable, connect a voltage between  
2 x VCC and VCC+7V to the G6 pin. Ensure that the rise  
time of the high voltage on G6 is slower than the mini-  
mum in the Electrical Specifications. Figure *NO TAR-  
GET FOR fig NS22872* shows a possible circuit dlia-  
gram for implementing the 2 x VCC. Be aware of the  
typical input current on the G6 pin when the high voltage  
is applied. The resistor used in the RC network, and the  
high voltage used, should be chosen to keep the high  
voltage at the G6 pin between 2 x VCC and VCC+7V.

5.5 FORCED EXECUTION FROM BOOT ROM  
When the user is developing a customized ISP routine, code  
lockups due to software errors may be encountered. The  
normal, and preferred, method to recover from these condi-  
tions is to reprogram the device with the corrected code by  
either an external parallel programmer or the emulation  
tools. As a last resort, when this equipment is not available,  
there is a hardware method to get out of these lockups and  
force execution from the Boot ROM MICROWIRE/PLUS  
routine. The customer will then be able to erase the Flash  
Memory code and start over.  
20026473  
The method to force this condition is to drive the G6 pin to  
high voltage (2 x VCC) and activate Reset. The high voltage  
condition on G6 must not be applied before VCC is valid and  
stable, and must be held for at least 3 instruction cycles  
longer than Reset is active. This special condition will by-  
pass checking the state of the Flex bit in the Option Register  
and will start execution from location 0000 in the Boot ROM.  
In this state, the user can input the appropriate commands,

5.6 RETURN TO FLASH MEMORY WITHOUT  
HARDWARE RESET  
The MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP supports the following features  
and commands:  
After programming the entire program memory, including  
options, it is necessary to exit the Boot ROM and return to  
the flash program memory for program execution. Upon  
receipt and completion of the EXIT command through the  
MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP, the ISP code will reset the part and  
begin execution from the flash program memory as de-  
scribed in the Reset section. This assumes that the FLEX bit  
in the Option register was programmed to 1.  
Write a value to the ISP Write Timing Register. NOTE:  
This must be the first command after entering  
MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP mode.

the same location in Flash memory. Two writes to  
the same location without an intervening erase will  
produce unpredicatable results including possible  
disturbance of unassociated locations.  
1. The hardware will disable interrupts from occurring. The  
hardware will leave the GIE bit in its current state, and if  
set, the hardware interrupts will occur when execution is  
returned to Flash Memory. Subsequent interrupts, dur-  
ing ISP operation, from the same interrupt source will be  
lost. Interrupts may occur between setting the KEY  
and executing the JSRB instruction. In this case, the  
KEY will expire before the JSRB is executed. It is,  
therefore, recommended that the software globally  
disable interrupts before setting the Key.  
5.10 FLASH MEMORY DURABILITY CONSIDERATIONS  
The endurance of the Flash Memory (number of possible  
Erase/Write cycles) is a function of the erase time and the  
lowest temperature at which the erasure occurs. If the device  
is to be used at low temperature, additional erase operations  
can be used to extend the erase time. The user can deter-  
mine how many times to erase a page based on what  
endurance is desired for the application (e.g. four page  
erase cycles, each time a page erase is done, may be  
required to achieve the typical 100k Erase/Write cycles in an  
application which may be operating down to 0˚C). Also, the  
customer can verify that the entire page is erased, with  
software, and request additional erase operations if desired.  
2. The security feature in the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP is  
guaranteed by software and not hardware. When ex-  
ecuting the MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routine, the security  
bit is checked prior to performing all instructions. Only  
the mass erase command, write PGMTIM register, and  
reading the Option register is permitted within the  
MICROWIRE/PLUS ISP routine. When the user is per-  
forming his own ISP, all commands are permitted. The  
entry points from the user’s ISP code do not check for  
security. It is the burden of the user to guarantee his own  
security. See the Security bit description in 4.5 OPTION  
REGISTER for more details on security.

the WATCHDOG is serviced, the lower window is en-  
abled, and the user can service the WATCHDOG any-  
time following exit from Boot ROM, but must service it  
within the selected upper window to avoid a WATCH-  
DOG error.

Figure 13 is a functional block diagram showing the structure  
of the IDLE Timer and its associated interrupt logic.  
6.0 Timers  
The device contains a very versatile set of timers (T0, T1,  
and T2). Timers T1, and T2 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 tc clocks), the  
IDLE Timer interrupt pending bit T0PND is set, thus gener-  
ating 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.  
6.1 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 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  
interrupt enable bit T0EN must be set, and the GIE (Global  
Interrupt 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 7.0 Power  
Saving Features.  
The clock to the IDLE Timer is the instruction cycle clock  
(one-fifth of the CKI frequency)  
In addition to its time base function, 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  
The Idle Timer period is selected by bits 0–2 of the ITMR  
register Bits 3 through 7 of the ITMR Register are reserved  
and must not be used as software flags.

Any time the IDLE Timer period is changed there is the  
possibility of generating a spurious IDLE Timer interrupt by  
setting 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  
attempting to synchronize operation to the IDLE Timer.

RxA. Subsequent underflows cause the timer to be reloaded  
from the registers alternately beginning with the register  
RxB.  
6.0 Timers (Continued)  
6.2 TIMER T1 AND TIMER T2  
The device has a set of two powerful timer/counter blocks,  
T1, and T2. Since T1, and T2 are identical, except for the  
high speed operation of T2, all comments are equally appli-  
cable to either of the two timer blocks which will be referred  
to as Tx. Differences between the timers will be specifically  
noted.  
Figure 14 shows a block diagram of the timer in PWM mode.  
The underflows can be programmed to toggle the TxA output  
pin. The underflows can also be programmed to generate  
interrupts.  
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  
enable 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  
underflow 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 reloaded into the timer. Resetting the timer enable flags  
will disable the associated interrupts.  
Each timer block consists of a 16-bit timer, Tx, and two  
supporting 16-bit autoreload/capture registers, RxA and  
RxB. 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  
timer block has three operating modes: Processor Indepen-  
dent PWM mode, External Event Counter mode, and Input  
Capture mode.  
The control bits TxC3, TxC2, and TxC1 allow selection of the  
different modes of operation.  
Either or both of the timer underflow interrupts may be  
enabled. 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 inter-  
rupt on both edges of the PWM output.  
6.2.1 Timer Operating Speeds  
T2 has the ability to operate at either the instruction cycle  
frequency (low speed) or the internal clock frequency  
(MCLK). For 10 MHz CKI, the instruction cycle frequency is  
2 MHz and the internal clock frequency is 20 MHz. This  
feature is controlled by the High Speed Timer Control Reg-  
ister, HSTCR. Its format is shown below. To place a timer, Tx,  
in high speed mode, set the appropriate TxHS bit to 1. For  
low speed operation, clear the appropriate TxHS bit to 0.  
This register is cleared to 00 on Reset.

6.2.2 Mode 1. Processor Independent PWM Mode  
One of the timer’s operating modes is the Processor Inde-  
pendent PWM mode. In this mode, the timers generate a  
“Processor Independent” PWM signal because once the  
timer is set up, no more action is required from the CPU  
which translates to less software overhead and greater  
throughput. The user software services the timer block only  
when the PWM parameters require updating. This capability  
is provided by the fact that the timer has two separate 16-bit  
reload registers. One of the reload registers contains the  
“ON” time while the other holds the “OFF” time. By contrast,  
a microcontroller that has only a single reload register re-  
quires an additional software to update the reload value  
(alternate between the on-time/off-time).  
20026467  
FIGURE 14. Timer in PWM Mode  
6.2.3 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 after  
synchronization to the appropriate internal clock (tC or  
MCLK). The Tx timer control bits, TxC3, TxC2 and TxC1  
allow the timer to be clocked either on a positive or negative  
edge from the TxA pin. Underflows from the timer are latched  
into the TxPNDA pending flag. Setting the TxENA control flag  
will cause an interrupt when the timer underflows.  
The timer can generate the PWM output with the width and  
duty cycle controlled by the values stored in the reload  
registers. The reload registers control the countdown values  
and the reload values are automatically written into the timer  
when it counts down through 0, generating interrupt on each  
reload. Under software control and with minimal overhead,  
the PWM outputs are useful in controlling motors, triacs, the  
intensity of displays, and in providing inputs for data acqui-  
sition and sine wave generators.  
In this mode the input pin TxB can be used as an indepen-  
dent positive edge sensitive interrupt input if the TxENB  
control flag is set. The occurrence of a positive edge on the  
TxB input pin is latched into the TxPNDB flag.  
In this mode, the timer Tx counts down at a fixed rate of tC  
(T2 may be selected to operate from MCLK). Upon every  
underflow the timer is alternately reloaded with the contents  
of supporting registers, RxA and RxB. The very first under-  
flow of the timer causes the timer to reload from the register  
Figure 15 shows a block diagram of the timer in External  
Event Counter mode.  
Note: The PWM output is not available in this mode since the  
TxA pin is being used as the counter input clock.

28  
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  
the TxPNDA and TxC0 pending flags in order to determine  
whether a TxA input capture or a timer underflow (or both)  
caused the interrupt.  
6.0 Timers (Continued)  
Figure 16 shows a block diagram of the timer T1 in Input  
Capture mode. T2 is identical to T1.  
20026468  
FIGURE 15. Timer in External Event Counter Mode  
6.2.4 Mode 3. Input Capture Mode  
20026469  
The device can precisely measure external frequencies or  
time external events by placing the timer block, Tx, in the  
input capture mode. In this mode, the reload registers serve  
as independent capture registers, capturing the contents of  
the timer when an external event occurs (transition on the  
timer input pin). The capture registers can be read while  
maintaining count, a feature that lets the user measure  
elapsed time and time between events. By saving the timer  
value when the external event occurs, the time of the exter-  
nal event is recorded. Most microcontrollers have a latency  
time because they cannot determine the timer value when  
the external event occurs. The capture register eliminates  
the latency time, thereby allowing the applications program  
to retrieve the timer value stored in the capture register.

3 (Input Capture)  
In this mode, the timer Tx is constantly running at the fixed tC  
or MCLK rate. The two registers, RxA and RxB, act as  
capture registers. Each register also 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.  
TxPNDA Timer Interrupt Pending Flag  
TxENA Timer Interrupt Enable Flag  
1 = Timer Interrupt Enabled  
The timer value gets copied over into the register when a  
trigger event occurs on its corresponding pin after synchro-  
nization to the appropriate internal clock (tC or MCLK). Con-  
trol bits, TxC3, TxC2 and TxC1, allow the trigger events to be  
specified either as a positive or a negative edge. The trigger  
condition for each input pin can be specified independently.  
0 = Timer Interrupt Disabled  
TxPNDB Timer Interrupt Pending Flag  
TxENB Timer Interrupt Enable Flag  
1 = Timer Interrupt Enabled  
0 = Timer Interrupt Disabled  
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.  
The timer mode control bits (TxC3, TxC2 and TxC1) are  
detailed in Table 16.  
When the high speed timer is counting in high speed mode,  
directly altering the contents of the timer upper or lower  
registers, the PWM outputs or the reload registers is not  
recommended. Bit operations can be particularly problem-  
atic. Since any of these six registers or the PWM outputs can  
change as many as ten times in a single instruction cycle,  
performing an SBIT or RBIT operation with the timer running  
can produce unpredictable results. The recommended pro-  
cedure is to stop the timer, perform any changes to the timer,  
the PWM outputs or reload register values, and then re-start  
the timer. This warning does not apply to the timer control  
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-

7.1 HALT MODE  
7.0 Power Saving Features  
The device can be 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. The WATCH-  
DOG logic on the device is disabled during the HALT mode.  
However, the clock monitor circuitry, if enabled, remains  
active and will cause the WATCHDOG output pin (WDOUT)  
to go low. If the HALT mode is used and the user does not  
want to activate the WDOUT pin, the Clock Monitor should  
be disabled after the device come out of reset (resetting the  
Clock Monitor control bit with the first write to the WDSVR  
register).  
Today, the proliferation of battery-operated based applica-  
tions has placed new demands on designers to drive power  
consumption down. Battery-operated systems are not the  
only type of applications demanding low power. The power  
budget constraints are also imposed on those consumer/  
industrial applications where well regulated and expensive  
power supply costs cannot be tolerated. Such applications  
rely on low cost and low power supply voltage derived di-  
rectly from the “mains” by using voltage rectifier and passive  
components. Low power is demanded even in automotive  
applications, due to increased vehicle electronics content.  
This is required to ease the burden from the car battery. Low  
power 8-bit microcontrollers supply the smarts to control  
battery-operated, consumer/industrial, and automotive appli-  
cations.  
The device supports two different ways of exiting the HALT  
mode. The first method of exiting the HALT mode is with the  
Multi-Input Wake-up feature on Port L. The second method  
is by pulling the RESET pin low.  
On wake-up from Port L, the device resumes execution from  
the HALT point. On wake-up from RESET execution will  
resume from location PC=0 and all RESET conditions apply.  
The device offers system designers a variety of low-power  
consumption features that enable them to meet the demand-  
ing requirements of today’s increasing range of low-power  
applications. These features include low voltage operation,  
low current drain, and power saving features such as HALT,  
IDLE, and Multi-Input Wake-Up (MIWU).  
If a crystal or ceramic resonator is selected as the oscillator,  
the Wake-up 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 amplitude and  
frequency stability. The IDLE timer is used to generate a  
fixed delay to ensure that the oscillator has indeed stabilized  
before allowing instruction execution. In this case, upon  
detecting a valid Wake-up signal, only the oscillator circuitry  
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 factor of 9.  
The Schmitt trigger following the CKI inverter on the chip  
ensures that the IDLE timer is clocked only when the oscil-  
The device offers the user two power save modes of opera-  
tion: HALT and IDLE. In the HALT mode, all microcontroller  
activities are stopped. In the IDLE mode, the on-board os-  
cillator circuitry and timer T0 are active but all other micro-  
controller activities are stopped. In either mode, all on-board  
RAM, registers, I/O states, and timers (with the exception of  
T0) are unaltered.  
Clock Monitor, if enabled, can be active in both modes.  
www.national.com  
30  
The WATCHDOG detector circuit is inhibited during the  
HALT mode. However, the clock monitor circuit if enabled  
remains active during HALT mode in order to ensure a clock  
monitor error if the device inadvertently enters the HALT  
mode as a result of a runaway program or power glitch.  
7.0 Power Saving Features (Continued)  
lator 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.  
It is recommended that the user not halt the device by merely  
stopping the clock in external oscillator mode. If this method  
is used, there is a possibility of greater than specified HALT  
current.  
The device has two options associated with the HALT mode.  
The first option enables the HALT mode feature, while the  
second option disables the HALT mode selected through bit  
1 of the Option register. With the HALT mode enable option,  
the device will enter and exit the HALT mode as described  
above. With the HALT disable option, the device cannot be  
placed in the HALT mode (writing a “1” to the HALT flag will  
have no effect, the HALT flag will remain “0”).  
If the user wishes to stop an external clock, it is recom-  
mended that the CPU be halted by setting the Halt flag first  
and the clock be stopped only after the CPU has halted.  
20026470  
FIGURE 17. Wake-up from HALT  
7.2 IDLE MODE  
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 instruction following the ’Enter Idle  
Mode’ instruction.  
The device is placed in the IDLE mode by writing a ’1’ to the  
IDLE flag (G6 data bit). In this mode, all activities, except the  
associated on-board oscillator circuitry, the WATCHDOG  
logic, the clock monitor and the IDLE Timer T0, are stopped.  
The power supply requirements of the microcontroller in this  
mode of operation are significantly lower than the normal  
power requirement of the microcontroller.  
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.  
As with the HALT mode, the device can be returned to  
normal operation with a reset, or with a Multi-Input Wake-up  
from the L Port. Alternatively, the microcontroller may also be  
awakened from the IDLE mode after a selectable amount of  
time up to 65,536 Idle Timer Clocks or 32.768 milliseconds  
with an internal clock frequency of 20 MHz.  
For more information on the IDLE Timer and its associated  
interrupt, see the description in Section 6.1 TIMER T0 (IDLE  
TIMER).  
The IDLE timer period is selectable from one of five values,  
4k, 8k, 16k, 32k or 64k Idle Timer Clocks. Selection of this  
value is made through the ITMR register. When the selected  
bit of the IDLE Timer toggles, the T0PND bit of the ICNTRL  
Register is set.  
The user has the option of being interrupted when the  
T0PND bit is set. The interrupt can be enabled or disabled  
via the T0EN control bit. Setting the T0EN flag enables the  
interrupt and vice versa.

The Multi-Input Wake-up feature is used to return (wake-up)  
the device from either the HALT or IDLE modes. Alternately  
Multi-Input Wake-up/Interrupt feature may also be used to  
generate up to 8 edge selectable external interrupts.  
SBIT 5, WKEN  
; Enable MIWU  
If the L port bits have been used as outputs and then  
changed to inputs with Multi-Input Wake-up/Interrupt, a  
safety procedure should also be followed to avoid wake-up  
conditions. After the selected L port 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  
associated WKPND bits being cleared.  
Figure 19 shows the Multi-Input Wake-up logic.  
The Multi-Input Wake-up feature utilizes the L Port. The user  
selects which particular L port bit (or combination of L Port  
bits) will cause the device to exit the HALT or IDLE modes.  
The selection is done through the register WKEN. The reg-  
ister WKEN is an 8-bit read/write register, which contains a  
control bit for every L port bit. Setting a particular WKEN bit  
enables a Wake-up from the associated L port pin.  
This same procedure should be used following reset, since  
the L port inputs are left floating as a result of reset.  
The user can select whether the trigger condition on the  
selected L Port 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 register WKEDG, which is an  
8-bit control register with a bit assigned to each L Port pin.  
Setting the control bit will select the trigger condition to be a  
negative edge on that particular L Port 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  
Wake-up 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.  
The occurrence of the selected trigger condition for Multi-  
Input Wake-up is latched into a pending register called WK-  
PND. The respective bits of the WKPND register will be set  
on the occurrence of the selected trigger edge on the corre-  
sponding Port L pin. The user has the responsibility of clear-  
ing these pending flags. Since WKPND is a pending register  
for the occurrence of selected wake-up conditions, the de-  
vice will not enter the HALT mode if any Wake-up bit is both  
enabled and pending. Consequently, the user must clear the  
pending flags before attempting to enter the HALT mode.  
WKEN and WKEDG are all read/write registers, and are  
cleared at reset. WKPND register contains random value  
after reset.  
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 L Port bit 5, where bit 5 has  
previously been enabled for an input interrupt. The program  
would be as follows:

converter input to external pins. This provides the ability to  
externally connect a common filter/signal conditioning circuit  
for the A/D Converter.  
8.0 A/D Converter  
This device contains a 16-channel, multiplexed input, suc-  
cessive approximation, 10 bit Analog-to-Digital Converter.  
Pins AVCC and AGND are used for the voltage reference.  
The A/D Converter is supported by three memory mapped  
registers: two result registers and the control register. When  
the device is reset, the mode control register (ENAD) is  
cleared, the A/D is powered down and the A/D result regis-  
ters have unknown data.  
8.1 OPERATING MODES  
It supports both Single Ended and Differential modes of  
operation.  
Two specific analog channel selection modes are supported.  
These are as follows:  
8.1.1 A/D Control Register  
The control register, ENAD, contains 4 bits for channel se-  
lection, 1 bit for mode selection, 1 bit for the multiplexor  
output selection, 1 bit for prescaler selection, 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 avail-  
able to the user in the A/D result registers, ADRSTH and  
ADRSTL, when ADBSY is cleared by the hardware on  
completion of the conversion.  
1. Allow any specific channel to be selected at one time.  
The A/D Converter performs the specific conversion re-  
quested and stops.  
2. Allow any differential channel pair to be selected at one  
time. The A/D Converter performs the specific differen-  
tial conversion requested and stops.  
In both Single Ended and Differential modes, there is the  
capability to connect the analog multiplexor output and A/D  
33

All port pins which are used, in the application, in A/D opera-  
tions must be configured as high-impedance inputs. If the  
ports are configured as outputs or inputs with weak pull-up  
there will be a conflict between the analog signal and the  
digitally driven output.

MULTIPLEXOR OUTPUT SELECT  
allows the input channel to be selected and settled before  
starting a conversion. The sequence to perform conversions  
using the Mux Out feature is a multistep process and is listed  
below.  
This 1-bit field allows the output of the A/D multiplexor and  
the input to the A/D to be connected directly to external pins.  
This allows for an external, common filter/signal conditioning  
circuit to be applied to all channels. The output of the exter-  
nal conditioning circuit can then be connected directly to the  
input of the Sample and Hold input on the A/D Converter.  
See Figure 20 for the single ended mode diagram. The  
Multiplexor output is connected to ADCH14 and the A/D  
input is connected to ADCH15. For Differential mode, the  
differential multiplexor outputs are available and should be  
converted to a single ended voltage for connection to the A/D  
Converter Input. See Figure 21.  
1. Select the desired channel and operating modes and  
load them into ENAD without setting ADBSY.  
2. Wait the appropriate time until the analog input has  
settled. This will depend on the application and the  
response of the external circuit.  
3. Select the same desired channel and operating modes  
used in step 1 and load them into ENAD and also set  
ADBSY or set ADBSY by using the SBIT instruction.  
This will start the conversion.  
The channel assignments for this mode are shown in Table  
20.  
4. Poll ADBSY until it is cleared by the hardware. This  
indicates the completion of the conversion.  
When using the Mux Output feature, the delay though the  
internal multiplexor to the pin, plus the delay of the external  
filter circuit, plus the internal delay to the Sample and Hold  
will exceed the three clock cycles that’s allowed in the con-  
version. This adds the requirement that, whenever the MUX  
bit = 1, that the channel selected by ADCH3:0 bits be en-  
abled, even when ADBSY = 0, and gated to the mux output  
pin. The input path to the A/D converter is also enabled. This  
5. Obtain the results from the result registers.  
The port pins used for the multiplexor output must be con-  
figured as high impedance inputs. If the port pins are con-  
figured as outputs, or as inputs with weak pull-up, there will  
be a conflict between the analog signal output and the  
digitally driven output.

values currently in the ENAD register. Normal completion of  
an A/D conversion clears the ADBSY bit and turns off the A/D  
Converter.  
This 1-bit field is used to select the mode of operation (single  
ended or differential) as shown in the following Table 20.  
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.

9.1.2 A/D Result Registers  
There are two result registers for the A/D converter: the high  
8 bits of the result and the low 2-bits of the result. The format  
of these registers is shown in Figures 21, 22. Both registers  
are read/write registers, but in normal operation, the hard-  
ware writes the value into the register when the conversion is  
complete and the software reads the value. Both registers  
are undefined upon Reset. They hold the previous value until  
a new conversion overwrites them. When reading ADRSTL,  
bits 5-0 will read as 0.  
PRESCALER SELECT  
This 1-bit field is used to select one of two prescaler clocks  
for the A/D Converter. The following Table 21 shows the  
various prescaler options. Care must be taken, when select-  
ing this bit, to keep the A/D clock frequency within the  
specified range.

cycle for loading the result into the result registers, for stop-  
ping and for re-initializing. 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.  
8.0 A/D Converter (Continued)  
8.2 A/D OPERATION  
The A/D conversion is completed within fifteen A/D converter  
clocks. 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 be-  
ginning of the write to ENAD operation which sets ADBSY,  
thus powering up the A/D. At the first edge of the Converter  
clock following the write operation, the sample signal turns  
on for three clock cycles. At the end of the conversion, the  
internal conversion complete signal will clear the ADBSY bit  
and power down the A/D. The A/D 10-bit result is immedi-  
ately loaded into the A/D result registers (ADRSTH and  
ADRSTL) upon completion.  
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 from  
the beginning with a corrupted sampled voltage (and thus an  
invalid result) when the device comes out of the HALT or  
IDLE modes.  
8.3 ANALOG INPUT AND SOURCE RESISTANCE  
CONSIDERATIONS  
Figure 22 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.  
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  
during input sampling. As shown in Figure 22, the analog  
switch to the DAC array is closed only during the 3 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.  
PRESCALER  
The A/D Converter (A/D) contains a prescaler option that  
allows two different clock speed selections as shown in  
Table 21. The A/D clock frequency is equal to MCLK 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 1.25 MHz. This  
equates to a 800 ns A/D clock cycle.  
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 frequency. The A/D  
minimum clock speed is 65.536 kHz.  
The A/D Converter takes 15 A/D clock cycles to complete a  
conversion. Thus the minimum A/D conversion time is 12.0  
µs when  
a prescaler of 16 has been selected with  
MCLK = 20 MHz. The 15 A/D clock cycles needed for  
conversion consist of 3 cycles for sampling, 1 cycle for  
auto-zeroing the comparator, 10 cycles for converting, 1

9.1 INTRODUCTION  
The device supports nine vectored interrupts. Interrupt  
sources include Timer 1, Timer 2, Timer T0, Port L Wake-up,  
Software Trap, MICROWIRE/PLUS, and External Input.  
Figure 23 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.

FIGURE 23. Interrupt Block Diagram  
9.2 MASKABLE INTERRUPTS  
interrupts meet these conditions simultaneously, the highest-  
priority interrupt will be serviced first, and the other pending  
interrupts must wait.  
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.  
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  
previous occurrences of the interrupt should be ignored, the  
associated pending bit must be reset to zero prior to en-  
abling the interrupt. Otherwise, the interrupt may be simply  
enabled; if the pending bit is already set, it will immediately  
trigger an interrupt. A maskable interrupt is active if its asso-  
ciated enable and pending bits are set.  
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.  
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 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 instruc-  
An interrupt is triggered only when all of these conditions are  
met at the beginning of an instruction. If different maskable

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.  
9.0 Interrupts (Continued)  
tion. If the next normally executed instruction is to be  
skipped, the skip is performed before the pending interrupt is  
acknowledged.  
At the start of interrupt acknowledgment, the following ac-  
tions occur:  
The vector table may be as long as 32 bytes (maximum of 16  
vectors) and resides at the top of the 256-byte block con-  
taining 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  
located between addresses 01E0 and 01FF Hex. If the VIS  
instruction is located between 01FF and 02DF Hex, then the  
vector table is located between addresses 02E0 and 02FF  
Hex, and so on.  
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.  
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.  
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  
rand and its vector is always located at 0yFE and 0yFF. The  
number of interrupts which can become active defines the  
size of the table.  
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.  
The interrupt service routine stored at location 00FF Hex  
should use the VIS instruction to determine the cause of the  
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.  
Table 26 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-  
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  
interrupt occurs and the VIS instruction is executed, the  
program jumps to the address specified in the vector table.  
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  
current interrupt routine.  
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.  
An interrupt service routine typically ends with an RETI  
instruction. This instruction set 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 immedi-  
ately upon return from the previous interrupt.  
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 inad-  
vertent execution of the VIS command outside of the context  
of an interrupt.  
Note: While executing from the Boot ROM for ISP or virtual  
E2 operations, the hardware will disable interrupts from oc-  
curring. The hardware will leave the GIE bit in its current  
state, and if set, the hardware interrupts will occur when  
execution is returned to Flash Memory. Subsequent inter-  
rupts, during ISP operation, from the same interrupt source  
will be lost.  
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-  
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  
9.3 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  
routine based on the cause of the interrupt.  
VIS is a single-byte instruction, typically used at the very  
beginning of the general interrupt service routine at address

source of an interrupt, this practice is not recommended. The  
use of polling allows the standard arbitration ranking to be  
altered, 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  
conditions, a Software Trap could be triggered but not ser-  
viced, resulting in an inadvertent “locking out” of all  
maskable interrupts by the Software Trap pending flag.  
Problems such as this can be avoided by using VIS  
instruction.  
9.0 Interrupts (Continued)  
ensure that execution is not erroneous, the routine should  
restore the program context and execute the RETI to return  
to the interrupted program.  
This technique can save up to fifty instruction cycles (tC), or  
more, (50 µs at 10 MHz oscillator) of latency for pending  
interrupts 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

the active interrupt with the highest arbitration ranking. 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 arbitration  
ranking.  
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 no active interrupt  
is pending, than E0 is generated. This number replaces the  
lower byte of the PC. The upper byte of the PC remains  
unchanged. The new PC is therefore pointing to the vector of

instruction. Figure 25 shows a flowchart for the VIS instruc-  
tion.

certain conditions) and upon RESET.

FIGURE 24. VIS Operation  
9.4 NON-MASKABLE INTERRUPT  
9.4.1 Pending Flag  
Nothing 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.  
There is a pending flag bit associated with the non-maskable  
Software Trap interrupt, called STPND. This pending flag is  
not memory-mapped and cannot be accessed directly by the  
software.  
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  
reliably. Therefore, the Software Trap service routine should  
re-initialize the stack pointer and perform a recovery proce-  
dure that re-starts 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  
execute the RPND instruction to reset the STPND flag.  
Otherwise, all other interrupts will be locked out. To the  
extent possible, the interrupt routine should record or indi-  
cate the context of the device so that the cause of the  
Software Trap can be determined.  
The pending flag is reset to zero when a device Reset  
occurs. When the non-maskable interrupt occurs, the asso-  
ciated 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.  
10.4.2 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  
variety of ways, usually because of an error condition. Some  
examples of causes are listed below.  
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.  
If the program counter incorrectly points to a memory loca-  
tion beyond the programmed Flash memory space, the un-  
used memory location returns zeros which is interpreted as  
the INTR instruction.  
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  
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  
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  
program to the ST service routine with the VIS instruction.  
41  
www.national.com  
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  
instructions 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.

perform a recovery procedure rather than a return to normal  
execution.

9.5 PORT L INTERRUPTS  
Interrupts may occur, however, between setting the ISP  
KEY and executing the JSRB instruction. It is recom-  
menden that the user globally disable interrupts before  
setting the key and reenable interrupts immediately  
upon returning from the Boot ROM.  
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  
circuitry. The register WKEN allows interrupts from Port L to  
be individually enabled or disabled. The register WKEDG  
specifies the trigger condition to be either a positive or a  
negative edge. Finally, the register WKPND latches in the  
pending trigger conditions.  
10.0 WATCHDOG/CLOCK  
MONITOR  
The device contains a user selectable WATCHDOG and  
clock monitor. The following section is applicable only if the  
WATCHDOG feature has been selected in the Option regis-  
ter. The WATCHDOG is designed to detect the user program  
getting stuck in infinite loops resulting in loss of program  
control or “runaway” programs.  
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.  
The WATCHDOG logic contains two separate service win-  
dows. While the user programmable upper window selects  
the WATCHDOG service time, the lower window provides  
protection against an infinite program loop that contains the  
WATCHDOG service instruction. The WATCHDOG uses the  
Idle Timer (T0) and thus all times are measured in Idle Timer  
Clocks.  
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  
execution 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  
interrupt service routine and then revert to normal operation.  
(See HALT MODE for clock option wake-up information.)  
The Clock Monitor is used to detect the absence of a clock or  
a very slow clock below a specified rate on tC.  
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.  
9.6 INTERRUPT SUMMARY  
The device uses the following types of interrupts, listed  
below in order of priority:  
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 25 shows the WDSVR register.  
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 re-start procedure.  
TABLE 25. WATCHDOG Service Register (WDSVR)  
2. Maskable interrupts, triggered by an on-chip peripheral  
block or an external device connected to the device.  
Under ordinary conditions, a maskable interrupt will not  
interrupt any other interrupt routine in progress. A

rupted by the non-maskable interrupt request.  
A
maskable interrupt routine should end with an RETI  
instruction or, prior to restoring context, should return to  
execute the VIS instruction. This is particularly useful  
when exiting long interrupt service routines 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.  
The lower limit of the service window is fixed at 2048 Idle  
Timer Clocks. Bits 7 and 6 of the WDSVR register allow the  
user to pick an upper limit of the service window.  
Table 26 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.  
3. While executing from the Boot ROM for ISP or virtual E2  
operations, the hardware will disable interrupts from oc-  
curring. The hardware will leave the GIE bit in its current  
state, and if set, the hardware interrupts will occur when  
execution is returned to Flash Memory. Subsequent in-  
terrupts, during ISP operation, from the same interrupt  
source will be lost.  
Bits 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 of the WDSVR register represent the  
5-bit Key Data field. The key data is fixed at 01100. Bit 0 of  
the WDSVR Register is the Clock Monitor Select bit.

10.1 CLOCK MONITOR  
When jumping to the boot ROM for ISP and virtual E2  
operations, the hardware will disable the lower window error  
and perform an immediate WATCHDOG service. The ISP  
routines will service the WATCHDOG within the selected  
upper window. The ISP routines will service the WATCH-  
DOG immediately prior to returning execution back to the  
user’s code in flash. Therefore, after returning to flash  
memory, the user can service the WATCHDOG anytime  
following the return from boot ROM, but must service it within  
the selected upper window to avoid a WATCHDOG error.  
The Clock Monitor aboard the device can be selected or  
deselected under program control. The Clock Monitor is  
guaranteed not to reject the clock if the instruction cycle  
clock (1/tC) is greater or equal to 5 kHz. This equates to a  
clock input rate on the oscillator of greater or equal to  
25 kHz.  
10.2 WATCHDOG/CLOCK MONITOR OPERATION  
The WATCHDOG is enabled by bit 2 of the Option register.  
When this Option bit is 0, the WATCHDOG is enabled and  
pin G1 becomes the WATCHDOG output with a weak pull-  
up.  
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 has a weak pull-up in the inactive  
state. Upon triggering the WATCHDOG, the logic will pull the  
WDOUT (G1) pin low for an additional 16–32 cycles 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. The WATCHDOG service window  
will restart when the WDOUT pin goes high.  
The WATCHDOG and Clock Monitor are disabled during  
reset. The device comes out of reset with the WATCHDOG  
armed, the WATCHDOG Window Select bits (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.  
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 it powers up low then the WATCHDOG will  
time out and WDOUT will go high.  
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  
register 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  
involves selecting or deselecting the Clock Monitor, select  
the WATCHDOG service window and match the WATCH-  
DOG key data. Subsequent writes to the WDSVR register  
will compare the value being written by the user to the  
WATCHDOG service window value, the key data and the  
Clock Monitor Enable (all bits) in the WDSVR Register. Table  
27 shows the sequence of events that can occur.  
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 go high following 16–32  
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:  
>
1/tC 5 kHzNo clock rejection.  
<
1/tC 10 HzGuaranteed clock rejection.  
The user must service the WATCHDOG at least once before  
the upper limit of the service window expires. The  
WATCHDOG may not be serviced more than once in every  
lower limit of the service window.

When using any of the ISP functions in Boot ROM, the  
ISP routines will service the WATCHDOG within the se-  
lected upper window. Upon return to flash memory, the  
WATCHDOG is serviced, the lower window is enabled,  
and the user can service the WATCHDOG anytime fol-  
lowing exit from Boot ROM, but must service it within the  
selected upper window to avoid a WATCHDOG error.  
10.0 WATCHDOG/CLOCK  
MONITOR (Continued)  
10.3 WATCHDOG AND CLOCK MONITOR SUMMARY  
The following salient points regarding the WATCHDOG and  
CLOCK MONITOR should be noted:  
Both the WATCHDOG and CLOCK MONITOR detector  
circuits are inhibited during RESET.  
10.4 DETECTION OF ILLEGAL CONDITIONS  
Following RESET, the WATCHDOG and CLOCK MONI-  
TOR are both enabled, with the WATCHDOG having the  
maximum service window selected.  
The device can detect various illegal conditions resulting  
from coding errors, transient noise, power supply voltage  
drops, runaway programs, etc.  
The WATCHDOG service window and CLOCK MONI-  
TOR enable/disable option can only be changed once,  
during the initial WATCHDOG service following RESET.  
Reading of unprogrammed ROM gets zeros. The opcode for  
software interrupt is 00. If the program fetches instructions  
from unprogrammed ROM, this will force a software inter-  
rupt, thus signaling that an illegal condition has occurred.  
The initial WATCHDOG service must match the key data  
value in the WATCHDOG Service register WDSVR in  
order to avoid a WATCHDOG error.  
The subroutine stack grows down for each call (jump to  
subroutine), interrupt, or PUSH, and grows up for each  
return or POP. The stack pointer is initialized to RAM location  
06F Hex during reset. Consequently, if there are more re-  
turns than calls, the stack pointer will point to addresses 070  
and 071 Hex (which are undefined RAM). Undefined RAM  
from addresses 070 to 07F (Segment 0), and all other seg-  
ments (i.e., Segments 4... etc.) is read as all 1’s, which in  
turn will cause the program to return to address 7FFF Hex.  
This location is unimplemented and, when accessed by an  
instruction fetch, will respond with an INTR instruction (all  
0’s) to generate a software interrupt, signalling an illegal  
condition on overpop of the stack.  
Subsequent WATCHDOG services must match all three  
data fields in WDSVR in order to avoid WATCHDOG  
errors.  
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 de-  
vice inadvertently entering the HALT mode will be de-  
tected as a CLOCK MONITOR error (provided that the  
CLOCK MONITOR enable option has been selected by  
the program). Likewise, a device with WATCHDOG en-  
abled in the Option but with the WATCHDOG output not  
connected to RESET, will draw excessive HALT current if  
placed in the HALT mode. The clock Monitor will pull the  
WATCHDOG output low and sink current through the  
on-chip pull-up resistor.  
Thus, the chip can detect the following illegal conditions:  
1. Executing from undefined Program Memory  
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). The recovery program should reset the  
software interrupt pending bit using the RPND instruction.  
The WATCHDOG service window will be set to its se-  
lected value from WDSVR following HALT. Consequently,  
the WATCHDOG should not be serviced for at least 2048  
Idle Timer clocks following HALT, but must be serviced  
within the selected window to avoid a WATCHDOG error.  
11.0 MICROWIRE/PLUS  
MICROWIRE/PLUS is a serial SPI compatible synchronous  
communications interface. The MICROWIRE/PLUS capabil-  
ity enables the device to interface with MICROWIRE/PLUS  
or SPI peripherals (i.e. A/D converters, display drivers,  
EEPROMs etc.) and with other microcontrollers which sup-  
port the MICROWIRE/PLUS or SPI interface. It consists of  
an 8-bit serial shift register (SIO) with serial data input (SI),  
serial data output (SO) and serial shift clock (SK). Figure 26  
shows a block diagram of the MICROWIRE/PLUS logic.  
The IDLE timer T0 is not initialized with external 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 selected bit of  
the IDLE counter toggles (every 4, 8, 16, 32 or 64k Idle  
Timer clocks). The user is responsible for resetting the  
T0PND flag.  
The shift clock can be selected from either an internal source  
or an external source. Operating the MICROWIRE/PLUS  
arrangement 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.  
A hardware WATCHDOG service occurs just as the de-  
vice exits the IDLE mode. Consequently, the  
WATCHDOG should not be serviced for at least 2048 Idle  
Timer clocks following IDLE, but must be serviced within  
the selected window to avoid a WATCHDOG error.  
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 ini-  
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  
master mode, the SK clock rate is selected by the two bits,  
SL0 and SL1, in the CNTRL register. Table 28 details the  
different clock rates that may be selected.

be selected as outputs by setting appropriate bits in the Port  
G configuration register. In the slave mode, the shift clock  
stops after 8 clock pulses. Table 29 summarizes the bit

In the MICROWIRE/PLUS Slave mode of operation the SK  
clock is generated by an external source. Setting the MSEL  
bit in the CNTRL register enables the SO and SK functions  
onto the G Port. The SK pin must be selected as an input  
and the SO pin is selected as an output pin by setting and  
resetting the appropriate bits in the Port G configuration  
register. Table 29 summarizes the settings required to enter

11.1 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 26 shows how  
two microcontroller devices and several peripherals may be  
interconnected using the MICROWIRE/PLUS arrangements.

may be repeated.  
11.1.1 MICROWIRE/PLUS Master Mode Operation

The instruction set offers a variety of methods for specifying  
memory addresses. Each method is called an addressing  
mode. These modes are classified into two categories: op-  
erand addressing modes and transfer-of-control addressing  
modes. Operand addressing modes are the various meth-  
ods of specifying an address for accessing (reading or writ-  
ing) data. Transfer-of-control addressing modes are used in  
conjunction with jump instructions to control the execution  
sequence of the software program.

13.3.1 Operand Addressing Modes  
The operand of an instruction specifies what memory loca-  
tion is to be affected by that instruction. Several different  
operand addressing modes are available, allowing memory  
locations to be specified in a variety of ways. An instruction  
can specify an address directly by supplying the specific  
address, or indirectly by specifying a register pointer. The  
contents of the register (or in some cases, two registers)  
point to the desired memory location. In the immediate  
mode, the data byte to be used is contained in the instruction  
itself.

13.1 INTRODUCTION  
Immediate  
This section defines the instruction set of the COP8 Family  
members. It contains information about the instruction set  
features, addressing modes and types.  
Immediate Short  
Indirect from Program Memory  
The addressing modes are described below. Each descrip-  
tion includes an example of an assembly language instruc-  
tion using the described addressing mode.  
13.2 INSTRUCTION FEATURES  
The strength of the instruction set is based on the following  
features:  
Direct. The memory address is specified directly as a byte in  
the instruction. In assembly language, the direct address is  
written as a numerical value (or a label that has been defined  
elsewhere in the program as a numerical value).  
Mostly single-byte opcode instructions minimize program  
size.  
One instruction cycle for the majority of single-byte in-  
structions to minimize program execution time.  
Example: Load Accumulator Memory Direct  
LD A,05  
Many single-byte, multiple function instructions such as  
DRSZ.

Register B or X Indirect. The memory address is specified  
by the contents of the B Register or X register (pointer  
register). In assembly language, the notation [B] or [X] speci-  
fies which register serves as the pointer.  
Register-Indirect LOAD and EXCHANGE instructions  
with optional automatic post-incrementing or decrement-  
ing of the register pointer. This allows for greater effi-  
ciency (both in cycle time and program code) in loading,  
walking across and processing fields in data memory.

B or X Indirect with Post-Incrementing/  
Decrementing. The relevant memory address is specified  
by the contents of the B Register or X register (pointer  
register). The pointer register is automatically incremented  
or decremented after execution, allowing easy manipulation  
of memory blocks with software loops. In assembly lan-  
guage, the notation [B+], [B−], [X+], or [X−] specifies which  
register serves as the pointer, and whether the pointer is to  
be incremented or decremented.  
13.3.2 Tranfer-of-Control Addressing Modes  
Program instructions are usually executed in sequential or-  
der. However, Jump instructions can be used to change the  
normal execution sequence. Several transfer-of-control ad-  
dressing modes are available to specify jump addresses.  
A change in program flow requires a non-incremental  
change in the Program Counter contents. The Program  
Counter consists of two bytes, designated the upper byte  
(PCU) and lower byte (PCL). The most significant bit of PCU  
is not used, leaving 15 bits to address the program memory.  
Example: Exchange Memory with Accumulator, B Indirect  
with Post-Increment  
X A,[B+]  
Different addressing modes are used to specify the new  
address for the Program Counter. The choice of addressing  
mode depends primarily on the distance of the jump. Farther  
jumps sometimes require more instruction bytes in order to  
completely specify the new Program Counter contents.

dress to the same 4-kbyte address space as the current

more than one 4-kbyte program memory space.)

Indirect from Program Memory. This is a special case of  
an indirect instruction that allows access to data tables  
stored in program memory. In the “Load Accumulator Indi-  
rect” (LAID) instruction, the upper and lower bytes of the  
Program Counter (PCU and PCL) are used temporarily as a  
pointer to program memory. For purposes of accessing pro-  
gram memory, the contents of the Accumulator and PCL are  
exchanged. The data pointed to by the Program Counter is  
loaded into the Accumulator, and simultaneously, the original  
contents of PCL are restored so that the program can re-  
sume normal execution.

Jump Indirect. In this 1-byte instruction, the lower byte of  
the jump address is obtained from a table stored in program  
memory, with the Accumulator serving as the low order byte  
of a pointer into program memory. For purposes of access-  
ing program memory, the contents of the Accumulator are  
written to PCL (temporarily). The data pointed to by the  
Program Counter (PCH/PCL) is loaded into PCL, while PCH  
remains unchanged.

32 Hex  
The logical instructions perform the operations AND, OR,  
and XOR (Exclusive OR). Other logical operations can be  
performed by combining these basic operations. For ex-  
ample, complementing is accomplished by exclusive-ORing  
the Accumulator with FF Hex.  
The VIS instruction 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 program memory into the Program Counter in  
order to jump to the associated interrupt service routine.  
Logical AND (AND)  
Logical OR (OR)  
Exclusive OR (XOR)  
13.4 INSTRUCTION TYPES  
The instruction set contains a wide variety of instructions.  
The available instructions are listed below, organized into  
related groups.  
13.4.5 Accumulator Bit Manipulation Instructions  
The Accumulator bit manipulation instructions allow the user  
to shift the Accumulator bits and to swap its two nibbles.  
Some instructions test a condition and skip the next instruc-  
tion if the condition is not true. Skipped instructions are  
executed as no-operation (NOP) instructions.  
Rotate Right Through Carry (RRC)  
Rotate Left Through Carry (RLC)  
Swap Nibbles of Accumulator (SWAP)  
13.4.1 Arithmetic Instructions  
13.4.6 Stack Control Instructions  
Push Data onto Stack (PUSH)  
Pop Data off of Stack (POP)  
The arithmetic instructions perform binary arithmetic such as  
addition and subtraction, with or without the Carry bit.  
Add (ADD)  
Add with Carry (ADC)  
Subtract with Carry (SUBC)  
Increment (INC)  
13.4.7 Memory Bit Manipulation Instructions  
The memory bit manipulation instructions allow the user to  
set and reset individual bits in memory.  
Decrement (DEC)  
Decimal Correct (DCOR)  
Clear Accumulator (CLR)  
Set Carry (SC)  
Set Bit (SBIT)  
Reset Bit (RBIT)  
Reset Pending Bit (RPND)  
13.4.8 Conditional Instructions  
Reset Carry (RC)  
The conditional instruction test a condition. If the condition is  
true, the next instruction is executed in the normal manner; if  
the condition is false, the next instruction is skipped.
