Description
The AT89S8252 is a low-power, h igh-performance CMO S 8-bit microc omputer with 8K bytes of Downloa dable Flash prog rammabl e and era sable re ad only me mory an d 2K bytes of EEPROM. The device is manufactured using Atmel’s high density nonvol­atile memory tec hnolo gy and is co mpatib le with th e industr y standar d 80C51 instruc ­tion set and pinout. The on-chip Downloadable Flash allows the program memory to be reprogrammed in-syst em thr ou gh an SPI seria l inter fac e or by a con ve ntio nal non­volatile memory programmer. By combining a versatile 8-bit CPU with Downloadable Flash on a monolithic chi p, the A tmel A T89S82 52 is a powerf ul mic rocomp uter wh ich provides a highly flexib le and co st effe ctive s olutio n to many embedd ed con trol appli­cations.
The AT89S8252 pro vides the followi ng standa rd featur es: 8K bytes of Downloada ble Flash, 2K bytes of EEPROM, 256 bytes of RAM, 32 I/O lines, programmable watch­dog timer, two Data Pointers, three 16-bit timer/counters, a six-vector two-level inter­rupt architecture, a full duplex serial port, on-chip oscillator, and clock c ircuitry. In addition, the AT89S8252 is designed with static logic for operation down to zero fre­quency and su pports two softwar e selecta ble powe r saving modes. Th e Idle Mod e stops the CPU while allowing the RAM, timer/counters, serial port, and interrupt sys­tem to continue functioning. The Power Down Mod e saves the RAM contents but freezes the oscillator, dis abling al l other chip function s un til the next in terrupt or hard­ware reset.
The Downloadab le Flash ca n be c hanged a si ngle byte a t a ti me and is acc essibl e through the SPI serial interface. Holding RESET active forces the SPI bus into a serial programming interface and allows the program memory to be written to or read from unless Lock Bit 2 has been activated.

Port 0
Port 0 is an 8-bit open drain bidirectional I/O port. As an output port, each pin can sink eight TTL inputs. When 1s are written to port 0 pins, the pins can be used as high­impedance inputs.
Port 0 can also be configu red to be the multiplex ed low­order address/data bus during accesses to ex ternal pro­gram and data memory. In this mode, P0 has internal pul­lups.

AT89S8252
Port 0 also receives the code bytes during Flash program­ming and outputs the code bytes durin g program verifica ­tion. External pullu ps are require d duri ng prog ram ve rifica ­tion.
Port 1
Port 1 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with interna l pullups. The Port 1 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are writte n to Po rt 1 pi ns, they a re pul led high by the internal pullups and can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 1 pins that are externally being pulled low will source current (I
) because of the internal pull ups.
IL
Some Port 1 pins p rovide additi onal functions. P1.0 and P1.1 can be config ured to be th e timer/count er 2 ext ernal count input (P1.0/T2) and the timer/counter 2 trigger input (P1.1/T2EX), respectively.

Port 1 also receives the low-order address bytes during Flash programming and verification.
Port 2
Port 2 is an 8-bit bidire ction al I/O por t w ith inter nal pullu ps. The Port 2 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are written to Port 2 pins , they are p ulled hi gh by the internal pullups and can be used as inputs. As inputs , Port 2 pins that are externally being pulled low will source current (I
) because of the internal pullups.
IL
Port 2 emits the high-order address byte during fetches from external program memory and during accesses to external data memory that use 16-bit addre sses ( MOVX @ DPTR). In this application, Port 2 uses strong internal pul­lups when emitting 1s. During accesses to external data memory that use 8-bit addresses (MOVX @ RI), Port 2 emits the contents of the P2 Special Function Register.
Port 2 also receives the high-order address bits and some control signals during Flash programming and verification.
Port 3
Port 3 is an 8 bit b idirec tional I/O port with i nternal pul lups. The Port 3 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are written to Port 3 pins , they are p ulled hi gh by the internal pullups and can be used as inputs. As inputs , Port 3 pins that are externally being pulled low will source current (I
) because of the pullups.

RST
Reset input. A high on this pin for two machine cycles while the oscillator is running resets the device.
ALE/PROG
Address Latch Enable is an output pulse for latching the low byte of the address during accesses to external mem­ory. This pin is also the program pulse input (PROG
) during
Flash programming. In normal operation, ALE is emitted at a constant rate of 1/6
the oscillator frequency and may be used for external tim­ing or clocking purposes. Note, however, that one ALE pulse is skipped d ur in g ea ch ac c ess to ex ter na l d ata mem ­ory.
If desired, ALE operation can be disabled by setting bit 0 of SFR location 8 EH. With the bit se t, ALE is activ e only du r­ing a MOVX or MOVC instruction. Otherwise, the pin is weakly pulled high. Setting the ALE-disable bit has no effect if the microcontroller is in external execution mode.
PSEN
Program Store Enable is the read strobe to external pro­gram memory.

User software shou ld not write 1s to these unlisted loca­tions, since they may be u sed in future products to invoke new features. In that case, the reset or inactive values of the new bits will always be 0.
Timer 2 Registers
Control and status b its ar e con tai ned in registers T2CON (shown in Table 2) and T2MOD (shown in Table 9) for Timer 2. The register pa ir (RC AP 2H, RCA P2 L) are the Capture/Reload registers for Timer 2 in 16 bit cap­ture mode or 16-bit auto-reload mode.
Watchdog and Memory Control Register
The WMCON register contains control bits for the Watchdog Timer (shown in Table 3). The EEMEN and EEMWE bits are used to select the 2K bytes on-chip EEPROM, and to enable byte-write. Th e DPS b it selec ts one o f two DP TR registe rs available.
SPI Registers
Control and status bits for the Serial Periph­eral Interface are contained in registers SPCR (shown in Table 4) and SPSR (shown in Table 5). The SPI data bits are contained in the SPDR register. Writing the SPI data register during serial data transfer sets the Write Collision bit, WCOL, in the SPSR register. The SPDR is double buff­ered for writing and the values in SPDR are not changed by Reset.
Interrupt Registers
The global interrupt enable bit and the individual interrupt enable bits are in the IE register. In addi­tion, the individual interrupt enable bit for the SPI is in the SPCR register. Two priorities ca n be set for each of the si x interrupt sources in the IP register.

Data Memory—EEPROM and RAM
The AT89S8252 implements 2K bytes of on-chip EEPROM for data storage and 256 bytes of RAM. The upper 128 bytes of RAM occupy a par alle l space t o the Sp ecial Func­tion Registers. That mea ns the upper 12 8 bytes have the same addresses as the SFR space but are physically sepa­rate from SFR space.
When an instruction accesses an internal location above address 7FH, the address mode used in the instruction specifies whether the CPU accesses the upper 128 bytes of RAM or the SFR space. Instructions that use direct addressing access SFR space.
For example, the following direct addressing instruction accesses the SFR at location 0A0H (which is P2).
Instructions that use indirect addressing access the upper 128 bytes of RAM. For example, the following indirect addressing instru ct ion , where R0 contains 0A0H, acce ss es the data byte at address 0A0H, rather than P2 (whose address is 0A0H).
Note that stack operations are examples of indirect addressing, so the upper 128 byte s of data RAM are avail ­able as stack space.

Timer 0 and 1
Timer 0 and Timer 1 in the AT89S8252 operate the same way as Timer 0 and Timer 1 in the AT89C51, AT89C52 and AT89C55. For further information, see the October 1995 Microcontroller Data Book, page 2-4 5, section titled, “Timer/Counters.”
Timer 2
Timer 2 is a 16 bit Timer/Counter that can operate as either a timer or an event counter. The type of operation is selected by bit C/T2 Timer 2 has three operating modes: capture, auto-reload (up or down counting), and baud rate generator. The modes are selected by bits in T2CON, as shown in Table 8.
Timer 2 consists of two 8- bi t regi st er s, TH2 and TL2. I n the Timer function, the TL2 r egister is incremented ever y machine cycle. Since a machine cycle consists of 12 oscil­lator periods, the count rate is 1/12 of the oscillator fre­quency.
In the Counter function, the register is incremented in response to a 1-to-0 transition at its corresponding external input pin, T2. In thi s func tion, the extern al i nput is sa mpled during S5P2 of every machin e cycle. When the samples show a high in one cycle and a low in the next cycle, the count is incremented. The new count value appears in the register during S3P1 of the cycle following the one in which the transition was detected. Since two machine cycles (24 oscillator periods ) ar e requi r ed to r ec og niz e a 1 -t o- 0 tran si ­tion, the maximum count rate is 1/24 of the oscillator fre­quency. To ensure that a gi ven level is sam pled at least once before it changes, the level should be held for at least one full machine cycle.

Capture Mode
In the capture mode, two options are selected by bit EXEN2 in T2CON. If EXEN2 = 0, Timer 2 is a 16 bit timer or counter which upon overflow sets bit TF2 in T2CON. This bit can then be used to generate an interrupt. If EXEN2 = 1, Timer 2 performs the same operation, but a l­to-0 transition at external input T2EX also causes the cur­rent value in TH2 and TL2 to be captured into RCAP2H and RCAP2L, resp ective ly. In addi tion, th e transit ion at T2E X causes bit EXF2 in T2CON to be set. The EXF2 bit, like TF2, can generate an interrupt. The capture mode is illus­trated in Figure 1.
Auto-Reload (Up or Down Counter)
Timer 2 can be programmed to count up or down when configured in its 16 bit auto-reload mode. This feature is invoked by the DCEN (Down Counter Enable) bit located in the SFR T2MOD (see Table 9). Upon reset, the DCEN bit is set to 0 so that ti mer 2 will defa ult to count u p. When DCEN is set, Timer 2 can coun t up or down, depend ing on the value of the T2EX pin.
Figure 2 shows Timer 2 automatically co unting up when DCEN = 0. In this mod e, two options are selecte d by bit EXEN2 in T2CON. If EXEN2 = 0, Time r 2 counts up to
