OVERVIEW (cont.)
The EP7212 also includes a 32-bit Y2K-compliant realtime clock and comp ar at or.

Power Management

The EP7212 is designed for ultra-low-power opera­tion. Its core operates at only 2.5 V, while its I/O has an operation range of 2.5 V–3.3 V. The device has three basic power states:
Operating — This state is the full performance
state. All the clocks and peripheral logic are enabled.
Idle — This state is the same as the Operating
St ate, exce pt th e CPU cl ock is halt ed wh ile w ait­ing for an event such as a key press.
2 DS474PP1
St andby — This state is equivalent to the computer
being switched off (no display), and the main oscillator shut down. An event such as a key press can wake-up the processor.

Memory Interfaces

There are two main ex te r nal memo r y in te rfa ces . The first one i s the R OM / SRA M / FLASH- style int er-
face that has programm able wait-state timings and includes burst-mode capability, with eight chip selects decoding six 256-Mbyte sections of addressable space. For maximu m flexibility, each bank can be specified to be 8, 16, or 32 bits wide. This allows the use of 8-bit-w ide boot ROM options t o minimize ov er-

Low-Power System-on-Chip with LCD Controller and Digital Audio Interface
OVERVIEW (cont.)
all system cost. The on-chip boot ROM can be used in product manuf acturing to se rially downlo ad system code into system FLASH memory. To further mini­mize system memory requirements and cost, the
ARM Thumb
instruction se t is suppo rted, provi ding for the use of high-speed 32-bit operations in 16-bit op-codes and yiel ding industr y-leading co de density.
The second is the programmable 16- or 32-bit-wide DRAM interface that allows direct conn ection of up to two banks of DRAM, eac h ba nk co ntaining up to 256 Mbytes. To assure the lowest possible power con­sumption, the EP721 2 sup ports self-refresh DRAMs, which are placed in a low-power state by the device when it enters the low-power Standby State. EDO and Fast Page DRAM are s upp or ted.
A DMA address generator is also provided that fetches video disp lay dat a for the LCD controller f rom main DRAM memory. The display frame buffer start address is programmable. In addition, the built-in LCD controller can utilize external or internal SRAM for memory, thus eliminating th e nee d for DR AMs.

Digital Audio Capability

The EP7212 uses its powerful 3 2-bit RISC p rocess­ing engine to implement audio decompression algo­rithms in software. The nature of the on-board RISC processor and the av ailabi lit y of e ff icien t C -compil ers and other softwar e development t ools, ensures th at a wide range of audio decompression algorithms can easily be ported to and run on the EP7212.

Serial Interfaces

The EP7212 include s two 16550-type UARTs for RS­232 serial communications, both of which have two 16-byte FIFOs for receiving and transmitting data. The UARTs support bit rates up to 115.2 kbps. An IrDA SIR protocol encoder / decoder can be option­ally switched in to the RX / TX si gnals to / from one of the UARTs to e nable these signals t o drive an infrared communication interface directly.

Digital Audio Interface (DAI)

The EP7212 integrates an interface to enable a direct connection to many low cost, low power, high quality audio converters. In particular, the DAI can directly interface with the Crystal power audio DACs and the Cry stal power ADC. Some of these devices feature digital bass and treble boost, digital volume control and compressor-limi ter fu ncti ons .

Packaging

The EP7212 is availabl e in a 208-pi n LQFP p ac kag e and a 256-ball PBGA p a ckage.

System Design

As shown in system block diagram, simply adding desired memory and periphera ls to the highly integrated EP7212 completes a low-power system solution. All necessary interface logic is integrated on-chip.

2.2 Pin Descriptions

Table 4 describes the function of all the external signals to the EP7212. Note that all output signals and all
I/O pins (when acting as outputs) are three stateable. This is to enable the Hi-Z test modes to be supported.

HALFWORD
DRA[0-12] is multiplexed with A[15-27], offering additional power savings since the lightest loading is exp ect ed on the hig h or der ROM addres s lines . Whenever the EP7212 is in the Standby State, the external address and data buses are driven low. The RUN signal is used internally to force these buses to be driven low. This is done to p reve nt perip herals that are powe red-d own from draining current. Also, the internal peripheral’s signals get set to their Reset State.
bus cycle. This is used to insert wait states for an external bus cycle.
O To do write accesses of dif ferent s izes W ord and Half -W ord must be externall y
decoded. The encoding of these signals is as follows:
Access Size Word Half-Word
Word 1 0
Half-Word * 1
Byte 0 0
The core will generate an address. When doing a read, the ARM core will select the appropriate byte channels. When doing a write, the correct bytes will have to be enabled depending on the above signals and the least signifi­cant bits of the address bus. The ARM architecture does no t sup port un ali gne d ac ces s es. For a read using x 32 memory, it is assumed tha t y ou w ill i gno re b it s 1 an d 0 of the address bus and perform a word rea d (or i n po wer c ritical systems decode the relevant bits depending on the size of the access). If an unaligned read takes place, the core will rotate the resulting data in the register. For more information on this behavior see the LDR instruction in the ARM7TDMI data sheet.
EXPCLK I/O Expansion clock rate is the same as the CP U cl ock fo r 13MHz and 18 MHz. It
runs at 36.864 MHz for 36,49 and 74 MHz modes; in 13 MHz mode this pin is used as the clock input.

resets the entire system, including all the RTC registers. Upon power-up, the signal must be held active low for a minimum of 100 µsec after V
tled. During normal operation, nPOR needs to be held low for at least one clock cycle of the selected clock speed (i.e., when running at 13 MHz, the pulse width of nPOR needs to be > 77 nsec).
Note that nURESET, RUN/CLKEN, TEST(0), TEST(1), PE(0), PE(1), PE(2), DRIVE(0), DRIVE(1), DD(0), DD(1), DD(2), and DD(3) are all latched on the rising edge of nPOR.
The CLKENSL bit is used to configure this pin. When RUN is selected, the pin will be high when the system is active or idle, low while in the Standby State. When CLKEN is selected, the pin will only be driven low when in the Standby State (For RUN, see Table 6).
I
Wake up is a deglitched input signal. It must also be held high for at least 125
µsec to guarantee its detection. Once detected it forces the
system into the Operating State from the Standby State. It is only active when the system is in the Standby State. This pin is ignored when the system is in the Idle or Operating State. It is used to wakeup the system after first power-up, or after software has forced the system into the Standby State. WAKEUP will be ignored for up to two seconds after nPOR goes HIGH. Therefore, the external WAKEUP logic must be designed to allow it to rise and stay HIGH for at least 125 usec, two seconds after nPOR goes HIGH.

Figure 2 shows a simplified block diagram of the
EP7212. All external memory and peripheral de­vices are connected to the 32-bit data bus using the external 28-bit address bus and control signals.

3.1 CPU Core

The ARM720T consists of an ARM7TDMI 32-bit RISC processor, a unified cache, and a memory management unit (MMU). The cache is four-way set associative with 8-kbytes organized as 512 lines of 4 words. The cache is directly connected to the ARM7TDMI, and therefore caches the virtual ad­dress from the CPU. When the cache misses, the MMU translates the virtual address into a physical address. A 64-entry translation lookaside buffer (TLB) is utilized to speed the address translation process and reduce bus traffic necessary to read the page table. The MMU saves power by only trans­lating the cache misses.
See the ARM720T Data sheet for a complete de­scription of the various logic blocks that make up the processor, as well as all internal registe r infor­mation.

3.2 State Control

The EP7212 supports the following Power Man­agement States: Operating, Idle, and Standby (see
Figure 3). The normal program execution state is
the Operating State; this is a full performance state where all of the clocks and peripheral logic are en­abled. The Idle State is the same as the Operating State with the exception of the CPU clock being halted, and an interrupt or wakeup will return it back to the Operating State. The Standby State has the lowest power consumption of the three states. By selecting this mode the main oscillator shuts down, leaving only the Real Time Clock and its as­sociated logic powered. It is important when the EP7212 is in Standby that all power and ground pins remain connected to power and ground in or­der to have a proper system wake-up. The only state that Standby can transition to is the Operating State.

3.2.1 Standby State

The Standby State equates to the system being switched "off" (i.e., no display, and the main oscil­lator is shut down). When the 18.432–73.72 MHz mode is selected, the PLL will be shut down. In the 13 MHz mode, if the CLKENSL bit is set low, then the CLKEN signal will be forced low and can, if re­quired, be used to disable an external oscillator.
In the Standby State, all the system memory and state is maintained and the system time is kept up­to-date. The PLL/on-chip oscillator or external os­cillator is disabled and the system is static, except for the low power watch crystal (32 kHz) oscillator and divider chain to the RTC and LED flasher. The RUN signal is driven low, therefore this signal can be used externally in the system to power down other system modules.
Whenever the EP7212 is in the Standby State, the external address and data buses are forced low in­ternally by the RUN signal. Thi s i s do ne to preve nt peripherals that are powered down from draining current. Also, the internal peripheral’s signals get set to their Reset State.
In the description below, the RUN/CLKEN pin can be used either for the RUN functionality, or the CLKEN functionality to allow an external oscilla­tor to be disabled in the 13 MHz mode. Either RUN or CLKEN functionality can be selected according to the state of the CLKENSL bit in the SYSCON2 register. Table 7 on the following page shows pe­ripheral status in various power management states.
When first powered, or reset by the nPOR (Power On Reset, active low) signal, the EP7212 is forced into the Standby State. This is known as a cold re­set, and when leaving the Standby State after a cold reset, external wake up is the only way to wake up the device. When leaving the Standby State after non-cold reset conditions (i.e., the software has forced the device into the Standby State), the tran­sition to the Operating State can be caused by a ris­ing edge on the WAKEUP input signal or by an enabled interrupt. Normally, when entering the Standby State from the Operating State, the soft­ware will leave some interrupt sources enabled.
NOTE: The CPU cannot be awakened by the TINT,
WEINT, and BLINT interrupts when in the Standby State.
Typically, software writes to the Standby internal memory location to cause the transition from the

Operating State to the Standby State. Before enter­ing the Standby State, if external I/O devices (such as the CL-PS6700s connected to nCS[4] or nCS[5]) are in use, the software must c heck to ensure that they are idle before issuing the write to the Standby State location.
Before entering the Standby State, the software must properly disable the DAI. Failing to do so will result in higher than expected power consumption in the Standby State, as well as unpredictable oper­ation of the DAI. The DAI ca n be r e-enabled afte r transitioning back to the Operating State.
The system can also be forced into the Standby State by hardware if the nPWRFL or nURESET in­puts are forced low. The only exit from the Standby State is to the Operating State.
The system will only transition to the Operating State from the Standby State under the following conditions: when the nPWRFL input pin is high when the nEXTPWR input pin is low or when the BATOK input pin is high. This prevents the system
from starting when the power supply is inadequate (i.e., the main batteries are low), corresponding to a low level on nPWRFL or BATOK.
From the Standby State, if the WAKEUP signal is applied with no clock except the 32 kHz clock run­ning, the EP7212 will be initialized into a state where it is ready to start and is waiting for the CPU to start receiving its clock. The CPU will still be held in reset at this point. After the first clock is ap­plied, there will be a delay of about eight clock cy­cles before the CPU is enabled. This delay is to allow the clock to the CPU time to settle.
3.2.1.1 UART in Standby State
During the Standby State, the UARTs are disabled and cannot detect any activity (i.e., start bit) on the receiver. If this functionality is required then this can be accomplished in software by the following method:
1) Permanently connect the RX pin to one of the active low external interrupt pins.
22 DS474PP1
EP7212
2) Ensure that on entry to the Standby State, the chosen interrupt source is not masked, and the UART is enabled.
3) Send a preamble that consists of one start bit, 8 bits of zero, and one stop bit. This will cause the EP7212 to wake and execute the enabled in­terrupt vector.
The UART will automatically be re-enabled when the processor re-enters the Operating State, and the preamble will be received. Since the UART was not awake at the start of the pream ble, the timing of the sample point will be off-center during the pre­amble byte. However, the next byte transmitted will be correctly aligned. Thus, the actual first real byte to be received by the UART will get captured correctly.

3.2.2 Idle State

If in the Operating State, the I dle State can be en ­tered by writing to a special internal memory loca­tion (HALT) in the EP7212. If an interrupt occurs, the EP7212 will return immediately back to the Op­erating State and execute the next instruction. The WAKEUP signal can not be used to exit the Idle State. It is only used to exit the Standby State.
In the Idle State, the device functions just like it does when in the Operating State. However, the CPU clock is halted while it waits for an event such as a key press to generate an interrupt. The PLL (in
18.432–73.728 MHz mode) or the external
13 MHz clock source always remains active in the Idle State.

3.2.3 Keyboard Interrupt

For the case of the keyboard interrupt, the follow­ing options are available and are selectable accord­ing to bits 1 and 3 of the SYSCON2 register (refer to the SYSCON2 Register Description for details).
If the KBWEN bit (SYSCON2 bit 3) is set low, then a keypress will cause a transition from a
power saving state only if the keyboard inter­rupt is non-masked (i.e., the interrupt mask reg­ister 2 (INTMR2 bit 0) is high).
When KBWEN is high, a keypress will cause the device to wake up regardless of the state of the interrupt mask register. This is called the “Keyboard Direct Wakeup’ mode. In this mode, the interrupt request may not get ser­viced. If the interrupt is masked (i.e., the inter­rupt mask register 2 (INTMR2 bit 0) is low), the processor simply starts re-executing code from where it left off before it entered the pow­er saving state. If the interrupt is non-masked, then the processor will service the interrupt.
When the KBD6 bit (SYSCON2 bit 1) is low, all 8 of Port A inputs are OR’ed together to pro­duce the internal wakeup signal and keyboard interrupt request. This is the default reset state.
When the KBD6 bit (SYSCON2 bit 1) is high, only the lowest 6 bits of Port A are OR’ed to­gether to produce the internal wakeup signal and keyboard interrupt request. The two most significant bits of Port A are available as GPIO when this bit is set high.
In the case where KBWEN is low and the INTMR2 bit 0 is low, it will only be possible to wakeup the device by using the external WAKEUP pin or an­other enabled interrupt source. The keyboard inter­rupt capability allows an OS to use either a polled or interrupt-driven keyboard routine, or a combina­tion of both.
NOTE: The keyboard interrup t is NOT deglit ch ed.

3.3 Power-Up Sequence

The EP7212 has a power-up sequence that should be followed for proper start up. If any of the below recommended timing sequences are violated, then it is possible that the part may not start-up properly. This could cause the device to get lost and not re­cover without a hard reset.
DS474PP1 23
EP7212
1). Upon power, the signal nPOR must be held ac­tive (LOW) for a minimum of 100us, after VDD has become settled.
2). After nPOR goes HIGH, the EP7212 will enter the Standby State (and only this state). In this state, the PLL is not enabled, and thus the CPU is not en­abled either. The only method that can be used to allow the EP7212 to exit the Standby State into the Operating State is by the WAKEUP signal going active (HIGH).
NOTE: It is not a requirement to use the nURE SET
signal. If not us ed, the nURESET signal must be HIGH, and it must have gone HIGH prior to nPOR going HIGH. This is due to the fact that nURESET is latched into the device by the rising edge of nPOR. When nURE­SET is LOW on the rising ed ge of nPOR, it can force the device into one of its Test Mode states.
3). After nPOR goes HIGH, the WAKEUP signal cannot be detected as going HIGH, until after at least two seconds. After two seconds, the WAKE­UP signal can become active, and it must be HIGH for at least 125us.
4). After the WAKEUP signal is detected internal­ly, it first goes through a deglitching circuit. This is why is must be active for at least 125us. Then the PLL gets enabled. WAKEUP is ignored immedi­ately after waking up the system. It also ignores it while in the Idle or Operating State. It can constant­ly toggle with no affect on the device. It will only be read again if nPOR goes low and then high again, or if software has forced the device back into the Standby State.
5). A maximum of 250 msec will pass before the CPU becomes enabled and starts to fetch the first instruction.

3.4 Resets

There are three asynchronous resets to the EP7212: nPOR, nPWRFL and nURESET. If any of these are active, a system reset is generated internally. This will reset all internal registers in the EP7212 except
the RTC data and match registers. These registers are only cleared by nPOR allowing the system time to be preserved through a user reset or power fail condition.
Any reset will also reset the CPU and cause it to start execution at the reset vector when the EP7212 returns to the Operating State.
Internal to the EP7212, three different signals are used to reset storage elements. These are nPOR, nSYSRES and nSTBY. nPOR is an external signal. nSTBY is equivalent to the external RUN signal.
nPOR (Power On Reset, active low) is the highest priority reset signal. When active (low), it will reset all storage elements in the EP7212. nPOR active forces nSYSRES and nSTBY active. nPOR will only be active after the EP7212 is first powered up and not during any other resets. nPOR active will clear all flags in the status register except for the cold reset flag (CLDFLG) bit (SYSFLG, bit 15), which is set.
nSYSRES (System Reset, active low) is generated internally to the EP7212 if nPOR, nPWRFL, or nURESET are active. It is the second highest prior­ity reset signal, used to asynchronously reset most internal registers in the EP7212. nSYSRES active forces nSTBY and RUN low. nSYSRES is used to reset the EP7212 and force it into the Standby State with no co-operation from software. The CPU is also reset.
The nSTBY and RUN signals are high when the EP7212 is in the Operating or Idle States and low when in the Standby State. The main system clock is valid when nSTBY is high. The nSTBY signal will disable any peripheral block that is clocked from the master clock source (i.e., everything ex­cept for the RTC). In general, a system reset will clear all registers and nSTBY will disable all pe­ripherals that require a main clock. The following peripherals are always disabled by a low level on nSTBY: two UARTs and IrDA SIR encoder, timer counters, telephony codec, and the two SSI inter-
24 DS474PP1
EP7212
faces. In addition, when in the Standby State, the LCD controller and PWM drive are also disabled.
When operating from an external 13 MHz oscilla­tor which has become disabled in the Standby State by using the CLKEN (SYSCON, bit 13) signal (i.e., with CLKENSL = 0), the oscillator must be stable within 0.125 sec from the rising edge of the CLKEN signal.

3.5 Clocks

There are two clocking modes for the EP7212. Ei­ther an external clock input can be used or the on­chip PLL. The clock source is selected by a strap­ping option on Port E, pin 2 (PE[2]). If PE[2] is high at the rising edge of nPOR (i.e., upon power­up), the external clock mode is selected. If PE[2] is low, then the on-chip PLL mode is selected. After power-up, PE[2] can be used as a GPIO.
The EP7212 device contains several separate sec­tions of logic, each clocked according to its own clock frequency requirements. When the EP7212 is in external clock mode, the actual frequencies at the peripherals will be different than when in PLL mode. See each peripheral device section for more details. The section below describes the clocking for both the ARM720T and address/data bus.

3.5.1 On-Chip PLL

The ARM720T clock can be programmed to
18.432 MHz, 36.864 MHz, 49.152 MHz, or
73.728 MHz with the PLL running at twice the highest possible CPU clock frequency (147.456 MHz). The PLL uses an external
3.6864 MHz crystal. By chip default, the on-chip PLL is used and configured such that the ARM720T and address/data buses run at
18.432 MHz. When the clock frequency is selected to be
36 MHz, both the ARM720T and the address/data buses are clocked at 36 MHz. When the clock fre­quency is selected higher than 36 MHz, only the
ARM720T gets clocked at this higher speed. The address/data will be fixed at 36 MHz. The clock frequency used is selected by programming the CLKCTL[1:0] bits in the SYSCON3 register. The clock frequency selection does not effect the EPB (external peripheral bus). Therefore, all the periph­eral clocks are fixed, regardless of the clock speed selected for the ARM720T.
NOTE: After modifying the CLKCTL[1:0] bits, the
next instruction should always be a ‘NOP’.
3.5.1.1 Characteristics of the PLL Interface
When connecting a crystal to the on-chip PLL in­terface pins (i.e. MOSCIN and MOSCOUT), the crystal and circuit should conform to the following requirements:
The 3.6864 MHz frequency should be created by the crystals fundamental tone (i.e., it should be a fundamental mode crystal).
A start-up resistor is not necessary, since one is provided internally.
Start-up loading capacitors may be placed on each side of the external crystal and ground. Their value should be in the range of 10 pF. However, their values should be selected based upon the crystal specifications. The total sum of the capacitance of the traces between the EP7212’s clock pins, the capacitors, and the crystal leads should be subtracted from the crystal’s specifications when determining the values for the loading capacitors.
The crystal should have a maximum 100 ppm frequency drift over the chip’s operating tem­perature range.
Alternatively, a digital clock source can be used to drive the MOSCIN pin of the EP7212. With this approach, the voltage levels of the clock source should match that of the VDD supply for the EP7212’s pads (i.e. the supply voltage level used to drive all of the non-VDD core pins on the EP7212).
DS474PP1 25
EP7212
The output clock pin (i.e., MOSCOUT) should be left floating.
3.5.2 External Clock Input (13 MHz)
An external 13 MHz crystal oscillator can be used to drive all of the EP7212. When selected the ARM720T and the address/data buses both get clocked at 13 MHz. The fixed clock sources to the various peripherals will have different frequencies than in the PLL mode. In this configuration, the PLL will not be used at all.
NOTE: When operating at 13 MHz, the
CLKCTL[1:0] bits should not be changed from their default value of ‘00’.

3.5.3 Dynamic Clock Switching When in the PLL Clocking Mode

The clock frequency used for the CPU and the bus­es is controlled by programming the CLKCTL[1:0] bits in the SYSCON3 register. When this occurs, the state controller switches from the current to the new clock frequency as soon as possible without causing a glitch on the clock signals. The glitch­free clock switching logic waits until the clock that is currently in use and the newly programmed clock source are both low, and then switches from the previous clock to the new clock without a glitch on the clocks.

3.6 Interrupt Controller

When unexpected events arise during the execution of a program (i.e., interrupt or memory fault) an ex­ception is usually generated. When these excep­tions occur at the same time, a fixed priority system determines the order in which they are handled.
Table 8 shows the priority order of all the excep-
tions.

Table 8. Exception Priority Handling

The EP7212 interrupt controller has two interrupt types: interrupt request (IRQ) and fast interrupt re­quest (FIQ). The interrupt controller has the ability to control interrupts from 22 different FIQ and IRQ sources. Of these, seventeen are mapped to the IRQ input and five sources are mapped to the FIQ input. FIQs have a higher priority than IRQs. If two inter­rupts are received from within the same group (IRQ or FIQ), the order in which they are serviced must be resolved in software. The priorities are listed in
Table 9. All interrupts are level sensitive; that is,
they must conform to the following sequence.
1) The interrupting device (either external or in­ternal) asserts the appropriate interrupt.
2) If the appropriate bit is set in the interrupt mask register, then either a FIQ or an IRQ will be as­serted by the interrupt controller. (A descrip­tion for each bit in this register can be found in INTSR1 Interrupt Status Register 1).
3) If interrupts are enabled the processor will jump to the appropriate address.
4) Interrupt dispatch software reads the interrupt
status register to establish the source(s) of the interrupt and calls the appropriate interrupt ser­vice routine(s).
5) Software in the interrupt service routine will clear the interrupt source by some action spe­cific to the device requesting the interrupt (i.e., reading the UART RX register).
The interrupt service routine may then re-enable in­terrupts, and any other pending interrupts will be serviced in a similar way. Alternately, it may re turn to the interrupt dispatch code, which can check for any more pending interrupts and dispatch them ac­cordingly. The “End of Interrupt” type interrupts are latched. All other interrupt sources (i.e., exter­nal interrupt source) must be held active until its re­spective service routine starts executing. See “End
Of Interrupt Locations” on page 83 for more de-
tails.
Table 9, Table 10, and Table 11 show the names
and allocation of interrupts in the EP7212.
3.6.1 Interrupt Latencies in Different
States
3.6.1.1 Operating State
The ARM720T processor checks for a low level on its FIQ and IRQ inputs at the end of each instruc­tion. The interrupt latency is therefore directly re­lated to the amount of time it takes to complete execution of the current instruction when the inter­rupt condition is detected. First, there is a one to two clock cycle synchronization penalty. For the case where the EP7212 is operating at 13 MHz with a 16-bit external memory system, and instruc­tion sequence stored in one wait state FLASH memory, the worst-case interrupt latency is 251 clock cycles. This includes a dela y for cache line fills for instruction prefetches, and a data abort occurring at the end of the LDM instruction, and the LDM being non-quad word aligned. In addi­tion, the worst-case interrupt latency assumes that LCD DMA cycles to support a panel size of 320 x

EP7212
240 at 4 bits-per-pixel, 60 Hz refresh rate, is in progress.
This would give a worst-case interrupt latency of about 19.3 µs for the ARM720T processor operat­ing at 13 MHz in this system. For those interrupt inputs which have de-glitching, this figure is in­creased by the maximum time required to pass through the deglitcher, which is approximately 125 µs (2 cycle of the 16.384 kHz clock derived from the RTC oscillator). This would create an absolute worst-case latency of approximately 141 µs. If the ARM720T is run at 36 MHz or greater and/or 32 bit wide external memory, the 19.3 µs value will be reduced.
All the serial data transfer peripherals included in the EP7212 (except for the master-only SSI1) have local buffering to ensure a reasonable interrupt la­tency response requirement for the OS of 1 ms or less. This assumes that the design data rates do not exceed the data rates described in this specification. If the OS cannot meet this requirement, there will be a risk of data over/underflow occurring.
3.6.1.2 Idle State
When leaving the Idle State as a result of an inter­rupt, the CPU clock is restarted after approximately two clock cycles. However, there is still potentially up to 20 µsec latency as desc ribed in the first sec­tion above, unless the code is written to include at least two single cycle instructions immediately af­ter the write to the IDLE register (in which case the latency drops to a few microseconds). This is im­portant, as the Idle State can only be left because of a pending interrupt, which has to be synchronized by the processor before it can be serviced.
3.6.1.3 Standby State
In the Standby State, the latency will depend on whether the system clock is shut down and if the FASTWAKE bit in the SYSCON3 register is s et. If the system is configured to run from the internal PLL clock, then the PLL will always be shut down
when in the Standby State. In this case, if the FASTWAKE bit is cleared, then there will be a la­tency of between 0.125 sec to 0.25 sec. If the FASTWAKE bit is set, then there will be a latency of between 250 µsec to 500 µsec. If the system is running from the external clock (at 13 MHz), with the CLKENSL bit in SYSCON2 set to 0, then the latency will also be between 0.125 sec and 0.25 sec to allow an external oscillator to stabilize. In the case of a 13 MHz system where the clock is not dis­abled during the Standby State (CLKENSL = 1), then the latency will be the same as descri bed in the Idle State section above.
Whenever the EP7212 is in the Standby State, the external address and data buses are driven low. The RUN signal is used internally to force these buses to be driven low. This is done to prevent peripher­als that are power-down from draining current. Al­so, the internal peripheral’s signals get set to their Reset State.
Table 12 summarizes the five external interrupt
sources and the effect they have on the processor interrupts.

3.7 EP7212 Boot ROM

The 128 bytes of on-chip Boot ROM contain an in­struction sequence that initializes the device and then configures UART1 to receive 2048 bytes of serial data that will then be placed in the on-chip SRAM. Once the download is complete, execution jumps to the start of the on-chip SRAM. This would allow, for example, code to be downloaded to program system FLASH during a product’s manufacturing process. See Appendix A: Boot Code for details of the ROM Boot Code with com- ments to describe the stages of execution.
Selection of the Boot ROM option is determined by the state of the nMEDCHG pin during a power on reset. If nMEDCHG is high while nPOR is active, then the EP7212 will boot from an external memo­ry device connected to CS[0] (normal boot mode).

If nMEDCHG is low, then the boot will be from the on-chip ROM. Note that in both cases, following the de-assertion of power on reset, the EP7212 will be in the Standby State and requires a low-to-high transition on the external WAKEUP pin in order to actually start the boot sequence.
The effect of booting from the on-chip Boot ROM is to reverse the decoding for all chip selects inter­nally. Table 13 shows this decoding. The control signal for the boot option is latched by nPOR, which means that the remapping of addresses and bus widths will continue to apply until nPOR is as­serted again. After booting from the Boot ROM, the contents of the Boot ROM can be read back from address 0x00000000 onwards, and in normal state of operation the Boot ROM contents can be read back from address range 0x70000000.

3.8 Memory and I/O Expansion Interface

Six separate linear memory or expansion segments are decoded by the EP7212, two of which can be re­served for two PC Card cards, each interfacing to a separate single CL-PS6700 device. Each segment is 256 Mbytes in size. Two additional segments (i.e., in addition to these six) are dedicated to the on-chip SRAM and the on-chip ROM. The on-chip ROM space is fully decoded, and the SRAM space

is fully decoded up to the maximum size of the vid­eo frame buffer programmed in the LCDCON reg­ister (128 kbytes). Beyond this address range the SRAM space is not fully decoded (i.e., any access­es beyond 128 kbyte range get wrapped around to within 128 kbyte range). Any of the six segments are configured to interface to a conventional SRAM-like interface, and can be individually pro­grammed to be 8-, 16-, or 32-bits wide, to support page mode access, and to execute from 1 to 8 wait states for non-sequential accesses and 0 to 3 for burst mode accesses. The zero wait state sequential access feature is designed to support burst mode
30 DS474PP1
EP7212
ROMs. For writable memory devices which use the nMWE pin, zero wait state sequential accesses are not permitted and one wait state is the minimum which should be programmed in the sequential field of the appropriate MEMCFG register. Bus cy­cles can also be extended using the EXPRDY input signal.
Page mode access is accomplished by setting SQAEN = 1, which enables accesse s of the form one random address followed by three sequential addresses, etc., while keeping nCS asserted. These sequential bursts can be up to four words long be­fore nCS is released to allow DMA and refreshes to take place. This can significantly improve bus bandwidth to devices such as ROMs which support page mode. When SQAEN = 0, all accesses to memory are by random access without nCS being de-asserted between accesses. Again nCS is de-as­serted after four consecutive accesses to allow DMAS.
Bits 5 and 6 of the SYSCON2 register independent­ly enable the interfaces to the CL-PS6700 (PC Card slot drivers). When either of these interfaces are en­abled, the corresponding chip select (nCS4 and/or nCS5) becomes dedicated to that CL-PS6700 inter­face. The state of SYSCON2 bit 5 determines the function of chip select nCS4 (i.e., CL-PS6700 in­terface or standard chip select functionality); bit 6 controls nCS5 in a similar way. There is no i nterac­tion between these bits.
For applications that require a display buffer small­er than 38,400 bytes, the on-chip SRAM can be used as the frame buffer.
The width of the boot device can be chosen by se­lecting values of PE[1] and PE[0] during power on reset. The inputs in Table 14 are latched by the ris- ing edge of nPOR to select the boot option.

3.9 DRAM Controller with EDO Support

The DRAM controller in the EP7212 provides all the connections to directly interface to up to two

Table 14. Boot Options
banks of (EDO) DRAM, and the width of the mem­ory interface is programmable to 16-bits or 32-bits. Both banks have to be of the same width. The 16/32-bit DRAM width selection is made based on bit 2 of the SYSCON2 register. Each of the two banks supported can be up to 256 Mbytes in size. Two RAS lines and four CAS lines are provided, with one CAS line per byte lane. The DRAM con­troller does not support device size programmabil­ity. Therefore, if two banks are implemented and DRAM devices are used, a bank smaller than 256 Mbytes would be created leading to a segmented memory map. Each segmented bank will be sepa­rated by 256 Mbytes. Segments that are smaller than the bank size will repeat within the bank. Ta ­ble 15. Physical to DRAM Address Mapping shows the mapping of the physical address to DRAM row and column addresses. This mapping has been organized to support any DRAM device size from 4 Mbits to 1 Gbits with a square row and column configuration (i.e., the number of column addresses is equal to the number of row addresses). If a non-square DRAM is used, further fragmenta­tion of the memory map will occur, however the smallest contiguous segment will always be 1 Mbyte. With proper mapping of pages/sections by the MMU, one can create contiguous memory blocks.
On boot-up, the DRAM controller is configured for operation with an 18.432 MHz internal bus speed, and therefore, can support either fast page mode or EDO DRAM. In this case, the read data from the DRAM is latched within the EP7212 on the rising edge of the nCAS output strobes. The DRAM must
DS474PP1 31
EP7212
not have an access time greater than 70 ns in order to meet the 18 MHz timing requirements. When t he internal bus is operating at 36.864 MHz (i.e., for CPU clock frequencies of 36.864, 49.152, or
73.728 MHz), the DRAM controller will only op­erate with EDO DRAM. When operating at 36 MHz, the EDO DRAM must not have an access time greater than 50 ns. The DRAM cycle timings are adjusted to take advantage of the additional per­formance available from fast EDO DRAM. In EDO mode, the EP7212 design relies on the DRAM data being driven to be available on the external data bus during the entire high phase of the nCAS signal so that it can be latched towards the end of the cy­cle. In Fast Page mode, the data should be latched at the rising edge of nCAS. It is not possible to use

the EP7212 with fast page mode DRAM at operat­ing frequencies of 36 MHz or higher.
The DRAM controller breaks all sequential access, so that the minimum page sizes defined can be sup­ported. All of the possible page sizes are multiples of the minimum page size, so by breaking up ac­cesses on minimum page sizes by default, all ac­cesses crossing larger page boundaries a re broken up.

3.10 CL-PS6700 PC Card Controller Interface

Two of the expansion memory areas are dedicated to supporting up to two CL-PS6700 PC Card con­troller devices. These are selected by nCS4 and nCS5 (must first be enabled by bits 5 and 6 of SYSCON2). For efficient, low power operation, both address and data are carried on the lower 16 bits of the EP7212 data bus. Accesses are initiated by a write or read from the area of memory allocat­ed for nCS4 or nCS5. The memory map within each of these areas is segmented to allow different types of PC Card accesses to take place, for at­tribute, I/O, and common memory space. The CL­PS6700 internal registers are memory mapped within the address space as shown in Table 17.
NOTE: Due to the operating speed of the CL-
PS6700, this interf ace is supported on ly for processor speeds of 13 and 18 MHz.

EP7212
A complete description of the protocol a nd AC tim­ing characteristics can be found in the CL-PS6700 data sheet. A transaction is initiated by an ac cess to the nCS4 or nCS5 area. The chip select is asserted, and on the first clock, the upper 10 bits of the PC Card address, along with 6 bits of size , space, and slot information are put out onto the lower 16 bits of the EP7212’s data bus. Only word (i.e., 4-byte) and single-byte accesses are supported, and the slot field is hardcoded to 11, since the slot field is de­fined as a ‘Reserved field’ by the CL-PS6700. The chip selects are used to select the device to be ac­cessed. The space field is made directly from the A26 and A27 CPU address bits, according to the decode shown in Table 18. T he siz e field is force d to 11 if a word access is required, or to 00 if a byte access is required. This avoids the need to config­ure the interface after a reset. On the second clock cycle, the remaining 16 bits of the PC Card address are multiplexed out onto the lower 16 bits of the data bus. If the transaction selected is a CL-PS6700 register transaction, or a write to the PC Car d (as-
suming there is space available in the CL-PS6700’s internal write buffer) then the access will continue on the following two clock cycles. During these following two clock cycles the upper and lower halves of the word to be read or written will be put onto the lower 16 bits of the main data bus.
The ‘ptype’ signal on the CL-PS6700s should be connected to the EP7212’s WRITE output pin. During PC Card accesses, the polarity of this pin changes, and it becomes low to signify a write and high to signify a read. It is valid with the first half word of the address. During the second half word of the address, it is always forced high to indicate to the CL-PS6700 that the EP7212 has initiated ei­ther the write or read.
The PRDY signals from each of the two CL­PS6700 devices are connected to Port B bits 0 and 1, respectively. When the PC CARD1 or PC CARD2 control bits in the SYSCON2 register are de-asserted, these port bits are available for GPIO. When asserted, these port bits are used as the

PRDY signals. When the PRDY signal is de-assert­ed (i.e., low), it indicates that the CL-PS6700 is busy accessing its card. If a PC CARD access is at­tempted while the device is busy, the PRDY signal will cause the EP7212’s CPU to be stalled. The EP7212’s CPU will have to wait for the card to be­come available. DMA transfers to the LCD can still continue in the background during this period of time (as described below). The EP7212 can access the registers in the CL-PS6700, regardless of the state of the PRDY signal. If the EP7212 needs to access the PC CARD via the CL-PS6700, it waits until the PRDY signal is high before initiating a transfer request. Once a request is sent, the PRDY signal indicates if data is available.
In the case of a PC Card write, writes can be posted to the CL-PS6700 device, with the same timing as CL-PS6700 internal register writes. Writes will normally be completed by the CL-PS6700 device independent of the EP7212 processor activity. If a posted write times out, or fails to complete for any other reason, then the CL-PS6700 will issue an in­terrupt (i.e., a WR_FAIL interrupt). In the case where the CL-PS6700 write buffer is already full, the PRDY signal will be de-asserted (i.e., driven low) and the transaction will be stalled pending an available slot in the buffer. In this case, the EP7212’s CPU will be stalled until the write can be posted successfully. While the PRDY signal is de­asserted, the chip select to the CL-PS6700 will be de-asserted and the main bus will be released so that DMA transfers to the LCD controller can con­tinue in the background.
In the case of a PC Card read, the PRDY signal from the CL-PS6700 will be de-asserted until the read data is ready. At this point, it will be reasserted and the access will be completed in the same way as for a register access. In the case of a b yte access, only one 16-bit data transfer will be required to complete the access. While the PRDY signal is de­asserted, the chip select to the CL-PS6700 will be de-asserted, and the main bus will be released so
that DMA transfers to the LCD controller can con­tinue in the background.
The EP7212 will re-arbitrate for control of the bus when the PRDY signal is reasserted to indicate tha t the read or write transaction can be completed. The CPU will always be stalled until the PC Card ac­cess is completed.
A card read operation may be split into a request cycle and a data cycle, or it may be combined into a single request/data transfer cycle. This depends on whether the data requested from the card is available in the prefetch buffer (internal to the CL­PS6700).
The request portion of the cycle, for a card read, is similar to the request phase for a card write (de­scribed above). If the requested data is available in the prefetch buffer, the CL-PS6700 asserts the PRDY signal before the rising edge of the third clock and the EP7212 continues the cycle to read the data. Otherwise, the PRDY signal is de-assert­ed, and the request cycle is stalled. The EP7212 may then allow the DMA address generator to gain control of the bus, to allow LCD refreshes to con­tinue. When the CL-PS6700 is ready with the data, it asserts the PRDY signal. The EP7212 then arbi­trates for the bus and, once the request is gra nted, the suspended read cycle is resumed. The EP7212 resumes the cycle by asserting the appropriate chip select, and data is transferred on the next two clocks if a word read (one clock if a byte read).
There is no support within the EP7212 for detecting time-outs. The CL-PS6700 device must be pro­grammed to force the cycle to be completed (with invalid data for a read) and then generate an inter­rupt if a read or write access has timed out (i.e., RD_FAIL or WR_FAIL interrupt). The system software can then determine which access was not successfully completed by reading the status regis­ters within the CL-PS6700.
The CL-PS6700 has support for DMA data trans­fers. However, DMA is supported only by software
DS474PP1 35
EP7212
emulation because the DMA address generator built into the EP7212 is dedicated to the LCD con­troller interface. If DMA is enabled within the CL­PS6700, it will assert its PDREQ signal to make a DMA request. This can be connected to one of the EP7212’s external interrupts and be used to inter­rupt the CPU so that the software can service the DMA request under program control.
Each of the CL-PS6700 devices can generate an in­terrupt PIRQ. Since the PIRQ signal is an open drain on the CL-PS6700 devices, two CL-PS6700 devices may be wired OR’ed to the same interrupt. The circuit can then be connected to one of the EP7212’s active low external interrupt sources. On the receipt of an interrupt, the CPU can re ad the in­terrupt status registers on the CL-PS6700 devices to determine the cause of the interrupt.
All transactions are synchronized to the EXPCLK output from the EP7212 in 18.432 MHz mode or the external 13 MHz clock. The EXPCLK should be permanently enabled, by setting the EXCKEN bit in the SYSCON1 register, when the CL-PS6700 is used. The reason for this is that the PC Card in­terface and CL-PS6700 internal write buffers need to be clocked after the EP7212 has completed its bus cycles.
ARM720T control register sets whether the EP7212 treats words in memory as being stored in big endian or little endian format. Memory is viewed as a linear collection of bytes numbered up­wards from zero. Bytes 0 to 3 hold the first stored word, bytes 4 to 7 the second, and so on. In the little endian scheme, the lowest numbered byte in a word is considered to be the least significant byte of the word and the highest numbered byte is the most significant. Byte 0 of the memory system should be connected to data lines 7 through 0 (D[7:0]) in this scheme. In the big endian scheme the most signifi­cant byte of a word is stored at the lowest numbered byte, and the least significant byte is stored at the highest numbered byte. Therefore, byte 0 of the memory system should be connected to data lines 31 through 24 (D[31:24]). Load and store are the only instructions affected by the Endianness.
Tables 19 and 20 demonstrate the behavior of the EP7212 in big and little endian mode, including the effect of performing non-aligned word accesses. The register definition section of this specification defines the behavior of the internal EP7212 regis­ters in the big endian mode in more detail. For fur­ther information, refer to ARM Application Note 61, Big and Little Endian Byte Addressing.
A GPIO signal from the EP7212 can be connected to the PSLEEP pin of the CL-PS6700 devices to al­low them to be put into a power saving state before the EP7212 enters the Standby State. It is essential that the software monitor the appropriate status registers within the CL-PS6700s to ensure that there are no pending posted bus transactions before the Standby State is entered. Failure to do this will result in incomplete PC Card accesses.

3.11 Endianness

3.12 Internal UARTs (Two) and SIR Encoder

The EP7212 contains two built-in UARTs that of­fers similar functionality to National Semiconduc­tor’s 16C550A device. Both UARTs can support bit rates of up to 115.2 kbits/s and include two 16­byte FIFOs: one for receive and one for transmit.
One of the UARTs (UART1) supports the three modem control input signals CTS, DSR, and DCD. The additional RI input, and RTS and DTR output modem control lines are not explicitly supported but can be implemented using GPIO ports in the EP7212. UART2 has only the RX and TX pins.

EP7212
UART operation and line speeds are controlled by the UBLCR1 (UART bit rate and line control). Three interrupts can be generated by UART1: RX, TX, and modem status interrupts. Only two can be generated by UART2: RX and TX. The RX inter­rupt is asserted when the RX FIFO becomes half full or if the FIFO is non-empty for longer than three character length times with no more charac­ters being received. The TX interrupt is asserted if the TX FIFO buffer reaches half empty. The mo­dem status interrupt for UART1 is generated if any of the modem status bits change state. Framing and parity errors are detected as ea ch byte is received and pushed onto the RX FIFO. An overrun error generates an RX interrupt immediately. All error bits can be read from the 11-bit wide da ta re gister. The FIFOs can also be programmed to be one byte depth only (i.e., like a conventional 16450 UART with double buffering).
The EP7212 also contains an IrDA (Infrared Data Association) SIR protocol encoder as a post-pro­cessing stage on the output of UART1. This encod­er can be optionally switched into the TX and RX signals of UART1, so that these can be used to drive an infrared interface directly. If the SIR pro­tocol encoder is enabled, the UART TXD1 line is held in the passive state and transitions of the RXD1 line will have no effect. The IrDA output pin is LEDDRV, and the input from the photodiode is PHDIN. Modem status lines will cause an interrupt (which can be masked) irrespective of whether the SIR interface is being used.
Both the UARTs operate in a similar manner to th e industry standard 16C550A. When CTS is deas­serted on the UART, the UART does not stop shift­ing the data. It relies on software to take appropriate action in response to the interrupt gen­erated.
Baud rates supported for both the UARTs are de­pendent on frequency of operation. When operat­ing from the internal PLL, the interface supports various baud rates from 115.2 kbits/s downwards. The master clock frequency is chosen so that most of the required data rates are obtainable exactly. When operating with a 13.0 MHz external clock source, the baud rates generated will have a slight error, which is less than or equal to 0.75%. The rates (all measured in kbits/s) obtainable from the 13 MHz clock include: 9.6, 19.2, 38, 58, and 115.2. See UBRLCR1-2 UART1-2 Bit Rate and Line Con- trol Registers for full details of the available bit rates in the 13 MHz mode.

3.13 Serial Interfaces

In addition to the two UARTs, the EP7212 offers the following serial interfaces shown in Table 21. The inputs / outputs of three of the serial interfaces (DAI, codec, and SSI2) are multiplexed onto a sin­gle set of external interface pins. If the DAISEL bit of SYSCON3 is low, then either SSI2 or the codec interface will be selected to connect to the external pins. When bit 0 of SYSCON2 (SERSEL) is high, then the codec is connected to the external pins, when low the master / slave SSI2 is connected to these pins. When the DAISEL bit is set high, the DAI interface is connected to the external pins. On power up, both the DAISEL and SERSEL bits are reset low, thus the master / slave SSI2 will be con­nected to these pins (and configured for slave mode operation to avoid external drive clashes).
Table 22 contains pin definition information for the
three multiplexed interfaces. The internal names given to each of the t hree inter-
faces are unique to help differentiate them from each other. The sections below that describe each of the three interfaces will use their respective unique internal pin names for clarity.

telephony type codec to the EP7212. It provides all the necessary clocks and timing pulses. It also per­forms a parallel to serial conversion or vice versa on the data stream to or from the external codec de­vice. The interface is full duplex and contains two separate data FIFOs (16 deep by 8-bits wide, one for the receive data, another for the transmit data).
Data is transferred to or from the codec at 64 kbits/s. The data is either written to or read from the appropriate 16-byte FIFO. If enabled, a codec interrupt (CSINT) will be generated after every 8 bytes are transferred (FIFO half full/empty). This means the interrupt rate will be every 1 msec, with a latency of 1 msec.
NOTE: Both the CDENRX and CDENTX enable bits
should be asserted in tandem for data to be transmitted or received. The reason for this is that the interrupt generation will occur 1 msec aft er one of the FIFOs i s enabled. For example: If the receive FIFO gets enabled first and the transmit FIFO at a later time, the interrupt will occur 1 msec after the receive FIFO is enabled. After the first inter­rupt occurs, the receive FIFO will be half full. However, it will not be possible to know how full the transmit FIF O will be since it was enabled at a later time. Thus, it is possible to unintentionally overwrite data already in the transmit FIFO (See Figure 6).
After the CDENRX and CDENTX enable bits get asserted, the corresponding FIFOs become en­abled. When both FIFOs are disabled, the FIFO sta-

tus flag CRXFE is set a nd CTXFF is cleared so that the FIFOs appear empty. Additionally, if the CDENTX bit is low, the PCMOUT output is dis­abled. Asserting either of the two enable bits causes the sync and interrupt generation logic to become active; otherwise they are disabled to conserve power.
Data is loaded into the transmit FIFO by writing to the CODR register. At the beginning of a transmit cycle, this data is loaded into a shift/load register. Just prior to the byte being transferred out, PCM­SYNC goes high for one PCMCLK cycle. Then the data is shifted out serially to PCMOUT, MSB first, (with the MSB valid at the same time PCMSYNC is asserted). Data is shifted on the rising edge of the PCMCLK output.
Receiving of data is performed by taking data in se­rially through PCMIN, again MSB first, shifting it through the shift/load register and loading the com­plete byte into the receive FIFO. If there is no data
available in the transmit FIFO, then a zero will be loaded into the shift/load register. Input data is sampled on the falling edge of PCMCLK. Data is read from the CODR register.

3.13.2 Digital Audio Interface

The DAI interface provides a high quality digital audio connection to DAI compatible audio devices. The DAI is a subset of I2S audio format that is sup­ported by a number of manufacturers.
The DAI interface produces one 128-bit frame at the audio sample frequency using a bit clock and frame sync signal. Digital audio data is transferred, full duplex, via separate transmit and receive data lines. The bit clock frequency is either fixed at
9.216 MHz or set via an externally supplied MCLK
signal. The DAI interface contains separat e transm it and
receive FIFO’s. The transmit FIFO’s are 8 audio

samples deep and the receive FIFO’s are 12 audio samples deep.
3.13.2.1 DAI Operation
Following reset, the DAI logic is disabled. To en­able the DAI, the applications program should first clear the emergency underflow and overflow status bits, which are set following the reset, by writing a 1 to these register bits (in the DAISR register). Next, the DAI control register should be pro­grammed with the desired mode of operation using a word write. The transmit FIFOs can either be “primed” by writing up to eight 16-bit values each, or can be filled by the normal interrupt service rou­tine which handles the DAI FIFOs. Finally, the FIFOs for each channel must be enabled via writes
to DAIDR2. At this point, transmission/reception of data begins on the transmit (SDOUT) and re­ceive (SDIN) pins. This is synchronously con­trolled by the 9.216 MHz (6.5 MHz in 13 MHz mode) internal clock or the externally supplied bit clock (SCLK), and the serial frame clock (LRCK).
3.13.2.2 DAI Frame Format
Each DAI frame is 128 bits long and it comprises one audio sample. Of this 128-bit frame, only 32 bits are actually used for digital audio data. The remaining bits are output as zeros. The LRCK sig­nal is used as a frame synchronization signal. Each transition of LRCK delineates the left and right halves of an audio sample. When LRCK transitions from high to low the next 16-bits make up the left

3.13.2.3 DAI Signals
MCLK oversampled clock. Used as an in-
put to the EP7212 for generating the DAI timing. This signal is also usu­ally used as an input to a DAC/ADC as an oversampled clock. This sig­nal is fixed at 256 times the audio sample frequency.
SCLK bit clock. Used as the bit clock input
into the DAC/ADC. This signal is fixed at 128 times the audio sample frequency.
LRCK Frame sync. Used as a frame syn-
chronization input to the DAC/ADC. This signal is fixed at the audio sample frequency. This signal is clocked out on the negative going edge of SCLK.
SDOUT Digital audio data out. Used for
sending playback data to a DAC. This signal is clocked out on the negative going edge of the SCLK output.
SDIN Digital audio input. Used for receiv-
ing record data from an ADC. This signal is latched by the EP7212 on the positive going edge of SCLK.

3.13.3 ADC Interface — Master Mode Only SSI1 (Synchronous Serial Interface)

The first synchronous serial interface allows inter­facing to the following peripheral devices:
In the default mode, the device is compatible
with the MAXIM MAX148/9 in external clock mode. Similar SPI- or Microwire-compatible devices can be connected directly to the EP7212.
In the extended mode and with negative-edge
triggering selected (the ADCCON and ADC­CKNSEN bits are set, respectively, in the SYSCON3 register), this device can be inter­faced to Analog Devices’ AD7811/12 chip us­ing nADCCS as a common RFS/TFS line.
Other features of the devices, including power
management, can be utilized by software and the use of the GPIO pins.
The clock output frequency is programmable and only active during data transmissions to save pow­er. There are four output frequencies selectable, which will be slightly different depending whether

the device is operating in a 13 MHz mode or a
18.432 MHz–73.728 MHz mode (see Table 23). The required frequency is selected by program­ming the corresponding bits 16 and 17 in the SYSCON1 register. The sample clock (SMPCLK) always runs at twice the frequency of the shift clock (ADCCLK). The output channel is fed by an 8-bit shift register when the ADCCON bit of SYSCON3 is clear. When ADCCON is set, up to 16 bits of configuration command can be se nt, as specified in the SYNCIO register. The input chan­nel is captured by a 16-bit shift register. The clock and synchronization pulses are activated by a write to the output shift register. During transfers the SSIBUSY (synchronous serial interface busy) bit in the system status flags register is set. When the transfer is complete and valid data is in the 16-bit read shift register, the SSEOTI interrupt is assert ed and the SSIBUSY bit is cleared.
An additional sample clock (SMPCLK) can be en­abled independently and is set at twice the transfer clock frequency.
This interface has no local buffering capability and is only intended to be used with low bandwidth in­terfaces, such as for a touch-screen ADC interface.

3.13.4 Master / Slave SSI2 (Synchronous Serial Interface 2)

A second SPI / Microwire interface with full master / slave capability is provided by the EP7212. Data rates in slave mode are theoretically up to 512 kbits/s, full duplex, although continuous oper­ation at this data rate will give an interrupt rate of 2 kHz, which is too fast for many operating sys­tems. This would require a worst-case interrupt re­sponse time of less than 0.5 msec and would cause loss of data through TX underruns and RX over­runs.
The interface is fully capable of being clocked at 512 kHz when in slave mode. However, it is antic­ipated that external hardware will be used to frame the data into packets. Therefore, although the data would be transmitted at a rate of 512 kbits/s, the sustained data rate would in fact only be
85.3 kbits/s (i.e., 1 byte every 750 µsec). At this
data rate, the required interrupt rate will be greater than 1 msec, which is acceptable.
There are separate half-word-wide RX and TX FIFOs (16 half-words each) and corresponding in­terrupts which are generated when the FIFO’s ar e half-full or half-empty as appropriate. The inter-

rupts are called SS2RX and SS2TX, respectively. Register SS2DR is used to access the FIFOs.
There are five pins to support this SSI port: SSIRX­DA, SSITXFR, SSICLK, SSITXDA, and SSIRX ­FR. The SSICLK, SSIRXDA, SSIRXFR, and SSITXFR signals are inputs and the SSITXDA sig­nal is an output in slave mode. In the master mode, SSICLK, SSITXDA, SSITXFR, and SSIRXFR are outputs, and SSIRXDA is an input. Master mode is enabled by writing a one to the SS2MAEN bit (SYSCON2[9]). When the master / slave SSI is not required, it can be disabled to save power by writ­ing a zero to the SS2TXEN and the SS2RXEN bits (SYSCON2[4] [7]). When set, these two bits inde­pendently enable the transmit and receive sides of the interface.
The master / slave SSI is synchronous, full duplex, and capable of supporting serial data transfers be­tween two nodes. Although the interface is byte­oriented, data is loaded in blocks of two bytes at a time. Each data byte to be transferred is marked by a frame sync pulse, lasting one clock period, and located one clock prior to the first bit being trans­ferred. Direction of the SSI2 ports, in slave and master mode, is shown in Figure 9.
Data on the link is sent MSB first and coincides with an appropriate frame sync pulse, of one clock in duration, located one clock prior to the first data
bit sent (i.e., MSB). It is not possible to send data LSB first.
When operating in master mode, the clock frequen­cy is selected to be the same as the ADC interface’s (master mode only SSI1) — that is, the frequencies are selected by the same bits 16 and 17 of the SYSCON1 register (i.e., the ADCKSEL bits). Thus, the maximum frequency in master mode is 128 kbits/s. The interface will support continuous transmission at this rate assuming that the OS can respond to the interrupts within 1 msec to prevent over/underruns.
NOTE: To allow synchronization to the incoming
slave clock, the interface enable bits will not take effect until one SSICLK cycle after they are written a nd the value read b ack from SYSCON2. The enable bits reflect the real status of the enables internally. Hence, there will be a delay before the new value pro­grammed to the enable bits can be read back.
The timing diagram for this interface can be found in the AC Characteristics section of this document.
3.13.4.1 Read Back of Residual Data
All writes to the transmit FIFO must be in half­words (i.e., in units of two bytes at a time). On the receive side, it is possible that an odd number of bytes will be received. Bytes are always loaded into the receive FIFO in pairs. Consequently, in the case of a single residual byte remaining at the end of a transmission, it will be necessary for the software

to read the byte separately. This is done by reading the status of two bits in the SYSFLG2 register to determine the validity of the residual data. These two bits (RESVAL, RESFRM) are both set high when a residual is valid. RESVAL is cleared on ei­ther a new transmission or on reading of the r esid­ual bit by software. RESFRM is cleared only on a new transmission. By popping the residual byte into the RX FIFO and then reading the status of these bits it is possible to determine if a residual bit has been correctly read.
Figure 10 illustrates this procedure. The sequence
is as follows: read the RESVAL bit, if this is a 0, no action needs to be taken. If this is a 1, then pop the residual byte into the FIFO by writing to the SS2POP location. Then read back the two status bits RESVAL and RESFRM. If these bits read back 01, then the residual byte popped into the FIFO is valid and can be read back from the SS2DR regis­ter. If the bits are not 01, then there has been anoth­er transmission received since the residual read procedure has been started. The data item that has been popped to the top of the FIFO will be invalid and should be ignored. In this case, the correct byte will have been stored in the most significant byte of the next half-word to be clocked into the FIFO.
NOTE: All the writes / reads to the FIFO are done
word at a time (data on the lower 16 bits is valid and upper 16 bits are ignored).
Software manually pops the residual byte into the RX FIFO by writing to the SS2POP location (the value written is ignored). This write will strobe the RX FIFO write signal, causing the residual byte to be written into the FIFO.

3.13.4.2 Support for Asymmetric Traffic
The interface supports asymmetric traffic (i.e., un­balanced data flow). This is accomplished through separate transmit and receive frame sync control lines. In operation, the receiving node receives a byte of data on the eight clocks following the asser-

tion of the receive frame sync c ontrol line. In a sim­ilar fashion, the sending node can transmit a byte of data on the eight clocks following the assertion of the transmit frame sync pulse. There is no correla­tion in the frequency of assertions of the RX and TX frame sync control lines (SSITXFR and SSIRXFR). Hence, the RX path may bear a greater data throughput than the TX path, or vice versa. Both directions, however, have an absolute maxi­mum data throughput rate determined by the maxi­mum possible clock frequency, assuming that the interrupt response of the target OS is sufficiently quick.
3.13.4.3 Continuous Data Transfer
Data bytes may be sent / received in a contiguous manner without interleaving clocks between bytes. The frame sync control line(s) are eight clocks apart and aligned with the clock representing bit D0 of the preceding byte (i.e., one bit in advance of the MSB).
3.13.4.4 Discontinuous Clock
In order to save power during the idle times, the clock line is put into a static low state. The master is responsible for putting the link into the Idle State. The Idle State will begin one clock, or more, after the last byte transferred and will resume at least one clock prior to the first frame sync assertion. To dis­able the clock, the TX section is turned off.
In Master mode, the EP7212 does not support the discontinuous clock.
DS474PP1 45
EP7212
3.13.4.5 Error Conditions
RX FIFO overflows are detected and conveyed via a status bit in the SYSFLG2 register. This register should be accessed at periodic intervals by the ap­plication software. The status register should be read each time the RX FIFO interrupts are generat­ed. At this time the error condition (i.e., overrun flag) will indicate that an error has occurred but cannot convey which byte contains the error. Writ­ing to the SRXEOF register location clears the overrun flag. TX FIFO underflow condition is de­tected and conveyed via a bit in the SYSFLG2 reg­ister, which is accessed by the application software. A TX underflow error is cleared by writing data to be transmitted to the TX FIFO.
3.13.4.6 Clock Polarity
Clock polarity is fixed. TX data is presented on the bus on the rising edge of the clock. Data is latched into the receiving device on the falling edge of the clock. The TX pin is held in a tristate condition when not transmitting.
3.14 LCD Controller with Support for On­Chip Frame Buffer
The LCD controller provides all the necessary con­trol signals to interface directly to a single panel multiplexed LCD. The panel size is programmable and can be any width (line length) from 32 to 1024 pixels in 16-pixel increments. The total video frame buffer size is programmable up to 128 kbytes. This equates to a theoretical maximum pan­el size of 1024 x 256 pixels in 4 bits-per-pixel mode. The video frame buffer can be located in any portion of memory controlled by the chip selects. Its start address will be fixed at address 0x0000000 within each chip select. The start address of the LCD video frame buffer is defined in the FBAD­DR[3:0] register. These bits become the most sig­nificant nibble of the external address bus. The default start address is 0xC000 0000 (FBADDR = 0xC). A system built using the on-chip SRAM
(OCSR), will then serve as the LCD video frame buffer and miscellaneous data store. The LCD vid­eo frame buffer start address should be set to 0x6 in this option. Programming of the register FBADDR is only permitted when the LCD is disabled (this is to avoid possible cycle corruption when changing the register cont en t s while a LCD DMA cycle is in progress). There is no hardware protection to pre­vent this. It is necessary for the software to disable the LCD controller before reprogramming the FBADDR register. Full address decoding is pro­vided for the OCSR, up to the maximum video frame buffer size programmable into the LCDCON register. Beyond this, the address is wrapped around. The frame buffer start address must not be programmed to 0x4 or 0x5 if either CL-PS6700 in­terface is in use (PCMEN1 or PCMEN2 bits in the SYSCON2 register are enabled). FBADDR should never be programmed to 0x7 or 0x8, as these are the locations for the on-chip Boot ROM and inter­nal registers.
The screen is mapped to the video frame buffer as one contiguous block where each horizontal line of pixels is mapped to a set of consecutive bytes or words in the video RAM. The video frame buffer can be accessed word wide as pixel 0 is mapped to the LSB in th e buffer such that the pixels are ar­ranged in a little endian manner.
The pixel bit rate, and hence the LCD refresh rate, can be programmed from 18.432 MHz to 576 kHz when operating in 18.432–73.728 MHz mode, or 13 MHz to 203 kHz when operating from a 13 MHz clock. The LCD controller is programmed by writing to the LCD control register (LCDCON). The LCDCON register should not be repro­grammed while the LCD controller is enabled.
The LCD controller also contains two 32-bit palette registers, which allow any 4-, 2-, or 1-bit pixel val­ue to be mapped to any of the 15 grayscale values available. The required DMA bandwidth to support a ½ VGA panel displaying 4 bits-per-pixel da ta at

an 80 Hz refresh rate is approximately
6.2 Mbytes/sec. Assuming the frame buffer is stored in a 32-bit wide the maximum theoretical bandwidth available is 86 Mbytes/sec at
36.864 MHz, or 29.7 Mbytes/sec at 13 MHz. The LCD controller uses a nine stage 32-bit wide
FIFO to buffer display data. The LCD controller re­quests new data when there are five words remain­ing in the FIFO. This means that for a ½ VGA display at 4 bits-per-pixel and 80 Hz refresh rate, the maximum allowable DMA latency is approxi­mately 3.25 µsec ((5 words 240 x 4bpp x 80 Hz)) = 3.25 µsec). The worst-case latency is the total nu mber of cycl es from when the DMA request appears to when the first DMA data word actually becomes available at the FIFO. DMA has the highest priority, so it will always hap­pen next in the system. The maximum number of cycles required is 36 from the point at which the DMA request occurs to the point at which the STM is complete, then another 6 cycles before the data actually arrives at the FIFO from the first DMA read. This creates a total of 42 cycles. Assuming the frame buffer is located in 32-bit wide, the worst-case latency is almost exactly 3.2 µs, with 13 MHz page mode cyc les. With each cycle con­suming ~77 ns (i.e., 1/1 MHz), the value of 3.2 µs comes from 42 cycles x 77 ns/cycle = ~3.23 µsec. If 16-bit wide, then the worst-case latency will dou­ble. In this case, the maximum permissible display size will be halved, to approximately 320 x 240 pix­els, assuming the same pixel depth and refresh rate has to be maintained. If the frame buffer is to be stored in static memory, then further calculations must be performed. If 18 MHz mode is selected, and 32-bit wide, then the worst-case latency will be
2.26 µsec (i.e., 42 cycles x 54 nsec/cycle). If 36 MHz mode is selected, and 32-bit wide, then the worst-case latency drops down to 1.49 µs. This cal­culation is a little more comple x for 36 MHz mode of operation. The total number of cycles = (12 x 4) + 7 = 55. Thus, 55 x 27 ns = ~1.49 µsec.
x 8 bits/byte) / (640 x
Figure 11 shows the organization of the video map
for all combinations of bits-per-pixel. The refresh rate is not affected by the number of
bits-per-pixel; however the LCD controller fetches twice the data per refresh for 4 bit s-per- pixe l com­pared to 2 bits-per-pixel. The main reason for re­ducing the number of bits-per-pixel is to reduce the power consumption of the memory where the video frame buffer is mapped.

3.15 Timer Counters

Two identical timer counters are integrated into the EP7212. These are referred to as TC1 and TC2. Each timer counter has an associated 16-bit read / write data register and some control bi ts in the sys­tem control register. Each counter is loaded with the value written to the data register immediately. This value will then be decremented on the second active clock edge to arrive after the write (i.e., after the first complete period of the clock). When the timer counter under flows (i.e., reaches 0), it w ill assert its appropriate interrupt. The timer counters can be read at any time. The clock source and mode are selectable by writing to various bits in the sys­tem control register. When run from the internal PLL, 512 kHz and 2 kHz rates are provided. When using the 13 MHz external source, the default fre­quencies will be 541 kHz and 2.115 kHz, respec­tively. However, only in non-PLL mode, an optional divide by 26 frequency can be generated (thus generating a 500 kHz frequency when using the 13 MHz source). This divider is enabled by set­ting the OSTB (Operating System Timing Bit) in the SYSCON2 register (bit 12). When this bit is set high to select the 500 kHz mode, the 500 kHz fre­quency is routed to the timers instead of the 541 kHz clock. This does not affect the frequencies derived for any of the other internal peripherals.
The timer counters can operate in two modes: fre e running or pre-scale.

3.15.1 Free Running Mode

In the free running mode, the counter will wrap around to 0xFFFF when it under flows and it will continue to count down. Any value written to TC1 or TC2 will be decremented on the second edge of the selected clock.

3.15.2 Prescale Mode

In the prescale mode, the value written to TC1 or TC2 is automatically re-loaded when the counter under flows. Any value written to TC1 or TC2 will be decremented on the second edge of the selected clock. This mode can be used to produce a pro­grammable frequency to drive the buzzer (i.e., with TC1) or generate a periodic interrupt. The formula is F=(500 kHz) / (n+1).

3.16 Real Time Clock

The EP7212 contains a 32-bit Real Time Clock (RTC). This can be written to and read from in the same way as the timer counters, but it is 32 bits wide. The RTC is always clocked at 1 Hz, generat­ed from the 32.768 kHz oscillator. It also contains a 32-bit output match register, this can be pro­grammed to generate an interrupt when the time in the RTC matches a specific time written t o this reg­ister. The RTC can only be reset by an nPOR cold reset. Because the RTC data register is updated from the 1 Hz clock derived from the 32 kHz source, which is asynchronous to the main memory system clock, the data register should always be read twice to ensure a valid and stable reading. This also applies when reading back the RTCDI V field of the SYSCON1 register, which reflects the status of the six LSBs of the RTC counter.

3.16.1 Characteristics of the Real Time Clock Interface

When connecting a crystal to the RTC interface pins (i.e., RTCIN and RTCOUT), the crystal and circuit should conform to the following require­ments:
The 32.768 kHz frequency should be created
by the crystals fundamental tone (i.e., it should be a fundamental mode crystal)
A start-up resistor is not necessary, since one is
provided internally.
Start-up loading capacitors may be placed on
each side of the external crystal and ground. Their value should be in the range of 10 pF. However, their values should be selected based upon the crystal specifications. The total sum of the capacitance of the traces between the EP7212’s clock pins, the capacitors, and the crystal leads should be subtracted from the crystal’s specifications when determining the values for the loading capacitors.
The crystal should have a maximum 5 ppm fre­quency drift over the chip’s operating tempera­ture range.
The voltage for the crystal must be 2.5 V + 0.2 V.
Alternatively, a digital clock source can be used to drive the RTCIN pin of the EP7212. With this ap­proach, the voltage levels of the clock source should match that of the VDD supply for the EP7212’s pads (i.e., the supply voltage level used to drive all of the non-VDD core pins on the EP7212) (i.e., RTCOUT). The output clock pin should be left floating.

3.17 Dedicated LED Flasher

The LED flasher feature enables an external pin (PD[0] / LEDFLSH) to be toggled at a programma­ble rate and duty ratio, with the intention that the external pin is connected to an LED. This module is driven from the RTCs 32.768 kHz oscillator and works in all running modes because no CPU inter­vention is needed once its rate and duty ratio have been configured (via the LEDFLSH register). The LED flash rate period can be programmed for 1, 2, 3, or 4 seconds. The duty ratio can be programmed such that the mark portion can be 1/16, 2/16… 16/16 of the full cycle. The external pin can provide up to 4 mA of drive current.

3.18 Two PWM Interfaces

Two Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) duty ratio clock outputs are provided by the EP7212. When the device is operating from the internal PLL, the PWM will run at a frequency of 96 kHz. These sig­nals are intended for use as drives for external DC­to-DC converters in the Power Supply Unit (PSU) subsystem. External input pins that would normally be connected to the output from comparators mon­itoring the external DC-to-DC converter output are also used to enable these clocks. These are the FB[0:1] pins. The duty ratio (and hence PWMs on time) can be programmed from 1 in 16 to 15 in 16. The sense of the PWM drive signal (active high or
DS474PP1 49
EP7212
low) is determined by latching the state of this drive signal during power on reset (i.e., a pull-up on the drive signal will result in a active low drive out­put, and visa versa). This allows either positive or negative voltages to be generated by the external DC-to-DC converter. PWMs are disabled by writ­ing zeros into the drive ratio fields in the PMPCON Pump Control register.
NOTE: To maximiz e power savings, the d rive ratio
fields should be used to disable the PWMs, instead of the FB pins. The clocks that source the PWMs are disabled when the drive ratio fields are zeroed.

As there are additional scan-chains within the ARM720T processor, it is necessary to include a scan-chain select function — shown as SCAN_N in Table 24. To select a pa rticular scan chain, this function must be input to the TAP controller, fol­lowed by the 4-bit scan chain identification code. The identification code for the boundary scan chain is 0011.
Note that it is only necessary to issue the SCAN_N instruction if the device is already in the JTAG mode. The boundary scan chain is selected as the default on test-logic reset and any of the system re­sets.
The contents of the device ID-register for the EP7212 are shown in Table 25. This is equivalent to 0x0F0F0F0F. Note this is the ID-code for the ARM720T processor.

3.20 In-Circuit Emulation

3.20.1 Introduction

EmbeddedICE™ is an extension to the architecture of the ARM family of processors, and provides the ability to debug cores that are deeply embedded into systems. It consists of three parts:
1) A set of extensions to the ARM core
2) The EmbeddedICE macrocell, which provides external access to the extensions
3) The EmbeddedICE interface, which provides communication between the host computer and the EmbeddedICE macrocell
The EmbeddedICE macrocell is programmed, in a serial fashion, through the TAP controller on the ARM via the JTAG interface. The EmbeddedICE macrocell is by default disable d to minimiz e power usage, and must be enabled at boot-up to support this functionality.

EP7212

3.20.2 Functionality

The ICEBreaker module consists of two real-time watchpoint units together with a control and status register. One or both of the units can be pro­grammed to halt the execution of the instructions by the ARM processor. Execution is halted when either a match occurs between the values pro­grammed into the ICEBreaker and the values cur­rently appearing on the address bus, data bus, and the various control signals. Any bit can be masked to remove it from the comparison. Either unit can be programmed as a watchpoint (monitoring data accesses) or a breakpoint (monitoring instruction fetches).
Using one of these watchpoint units, an unlimited number of software breakpoints (in RAM) can be supported by substitution of the actual code.
NOTE: The EXTERN[1:0] signals from the ICE-
Breaker module are not wired out in this device. This mechanism is used to allow watchpoints to be dependent on an exter nal event. This behavior can be emulated in software via the ICEBreaker c ontrol regis­ters.
A more detailed description is available in the ARM Software Development Toolkit User Guide and Reference Manual. The ICEBreaker module and its registers are fully described in the ARM7TDMI Data Sheet.

3.21 Maximum EP7212-Based System

A maximum configured system using the EP7212 is shown in Figure 12. This system assumes all of the DRAMs and ROMs are 16-bit wide devices. The keyboard may be connected to more GPIO bits than shown to allow greater than 64 keys, however these extra pins will not be wired into the WAKE­UP pin functionality.

4. MEMORY MAP

The lower 2 GByte of the address space is allocated to memory. The 0.5 GByte of address space from 0xC0000000 to 0xDFFFFFFF is allocated to DRAM. The 1.5 GByte, less 8 kbytes for internal registers, is not accessible in the EP7212. The MMU in the EP7212 should be programmed to generate an abort exception for access to this area.
Internal peripherals are addressed through a set of internal memory locations from hex address 0x8000.0000 to 0x8000.3FFF. These are known as the internal registers in the EP7212. In Table 26, the memory map from 0x8000.000 to 0x8000.1FFF contains registers that are compatible with the CL-PS7111 (see Table 26). These were in-

Table 26 shows how the 4-G byte address range of
the ARM720T processor (as configured within this chip) is mapped in the EP7212. The memory map shown assumes that two CL-PS6700 PC Card con­trollers are connected. If this func tionality is not re­quired, then the nCS[4] and nCS[5] memory is available. The external boot ROM is not fully de­coded (i.e., the boot code will repeat within the 256-Mbyte space from 0x70000000 to 0x80000000). See Table 13 on page 30 for the memory map when booted from on chip boot ROM. The SRAM is fully decoded up to a maxi­mum size of 128 kbytes. Access to any location above this range will be wrapped to within the range.

5. REGISTER DESCRIPTIONS

5.1 Internal Registers

Table 27 shows the Internal Registers of the
EP7212 that are compatible with the CL-PS7111 when the CPU is configured to a little endian m em­ory system. Table 28 shows the differences that oc­cur when the CPU is configured to a big endian memory system for byte-wide access to Ports A, B, and D. All the internal registers a re inhere ntly little endian (i.e., the least significant byte is attached to bits 7 to 0 of the data bus). Hence, the system En­dianness affects the addresses required for byte ac­cesses to the internal registers, resulting in a reversal of the byte address required to read / write a particular byte within a register. Note that the in­ternal registers have been split into two groups – the “old” and the “new”. The old ones are the same as that used in CL-PS7111 and are there for c om­patibility. The new registers are for accessing the additional functionality of the DAI interface and the LED flasher.
There is no effect on the register addresses for word accesses. Bits A[0:1] of the internal address bus are only decoded for Ports A, B, and D (to allow read / write to individual ports). For all other registers, bits A[0:1] are not decoded, so that byte reads will return the whole register contents onto the EP7212’s internal bus, from where the appropriate byte (according to the endianness) will be read by the CPU. To avoid the additional complexity, it is preferable to perform al l internal register a ccesses as word operations, except for ports A to D which are explicitly designed to operate with byte ac cess­es, as well as with word accesses.
An 8 k segment of memory in the range 0x8000.0000 to 0x8000.3FFF is reserved for inter­nal use in the EP7212. Accesses in this range will not cause any external bus activity unless debug mode is enabled. Writes to bits that are not explic-
itly defined in the internal area are legal and will have no effect. Reads from bits not explicitly de­fined in the internal area are legal but will read un­defined values. All the internal addresses should only be accessed as 32-bit words and are always on a word boundary, except for the PIO port registers, which can be accessed as bytes. Address bits in the range A[0:5] are not decoded (except for Ports A–D), this means each internal register is valid for 64 bytes (i.e., the SYSFLG1 register appears at lo­cations 0x8000.0140 to 0x8000.017C). There are some gaps in the register map for backward com­patibility reasons, but registers located next to a gap are still only decoded for 64 bytes.
The GPIO port registers are byte-wide and can be accessed as a word but not as a half-word. These registers additionally decode A[0:1]. All addresses are in hexadecimal notation.
NOTE: All byte-wide regis ters should be accessed
as words (except Port A to Port D registers, which are designed to work in both word and byte modes). All registers bit alignment starts from the LSB of the register (i.e., they are all right shift justified). The registers whic h i nte ra ct with the 32 kHz clock or which could change during read­back (i.e., RTC data registers, SYSFLG1 register (lower 6-bits only), the TC1D and TC2D data registers, port registers, and interrupt status registers), should be read twice and compared to ens ure that a stable value has been read back.
All internal registers in the EP7212 are reset (cleared to zero) by a system reset (i.e., nPOR, nRESET, or nPWRFL signals becoming active), and the Real Time Clock data register (RTCDR) and match register (RTCMR), which are only reset by nPOR becoming active. This ensures that the system time preserved through a user reset or pow­er fail condition. In the following register descrip­tions, little endian is assumed.

Table 28. EP7212 Internal Registers (Big Endian Mode)

All internal registers in the IP7212 are reset (cleared to zero) by a system reset (i.e., nPOR, nURESET, or nPWRFL signals becoming active), except for the DRAM refresh period register (DPFPR), the Real Time Clock data register (RTCDR), and the match register (RTCMR), which are only reset by nPOR becoming active. This ensures that the DRAM contents and system time are preserved through a user reset or power fail condition.
NOTE: The following Register Descriptions refer to Little Endian Mode Only

5.1.1 PADR Port A Data Register

ADDRESS: 0x8000.0000
Values written to this 8-bit read / write register will be output on Port A pins if the corresponding data direction bits are set high (port output).

4 TC1M: Timer counter 1 mode. Setting this bit sets TC1 to prescale mode, clearing it sets free
running mode.
5 TC1S: Timer counter 1 clock source. Setting this bit sets the TC1 clock source to 512 kHz, clear-
ing it sets the clock source to 2 kHz.
6 TC2M: Timer counter 2 mode. Setting this bit sets TC2 to prescale mode, clearing it sets free
running mode.
7 TC2S: Timer counter 2 clock source. Setting this bit sets the TC2 clock source to 512 kHz, clear-
ing it sets the clock source to 2 kHz.
8 UART1EN: Internal UART enable bit. Setting this bit enables the internal UART. 9 BZTOG: Bit to drive (i.e., toggle) the buzzer output directly when software mode of operation is
selected (i.e., bit BZMOD = 0). See the BZMOD and BUZFREQ (SYSCON1) bits for more details.
10 BZMOD: This bit selects the buzzer drive mode. When BZMOD = 0, the buzzer drive output pin
is connected directly to the BZTOG bit. This is the software mode. When BZMOD = 1, the buzzer drive is in the hardware mode. Two hardware sources are available to drive the pin. They are the TC1 or a fixed internally generated clock source. The selection of which source is used to drive the pin is determined by the state of the BUZFREQ bit in the SYSCON2 register. If the TC1 is selected, then the buzzer output pin is connected to the TC1 under flow bit. The buzzer output pin changes every time the timer wraps around. The frequency depends on what was pro­grammed into the timer. See the description of the BUZFREQ and BZTOG bits (SYSCON2) for more details.

Bit Description
11 DBGEN: Setting this bit will enable the debug mode. In this mode, all internal accesses are out-
put as if they were reads or writes to the expansion memory addressed by nCS5. nCS5 will still be active in its standard address range. In addition, the internal interrupt request and fast inter­rupt request signals to the ARM720T processor are output on Port E, bits 1 and 2. Note that these bits must be programmed to be outputs before this functionality can be observed. The clock to the CPU is output on Port E, Bit 0 to delineate individual accesses. For example, in debug mode:
nCS5 = nCS5 or internal I/O strobe
PE0 = CLK
PE1 = nIRQ
PE2 = nFIQ
12 LCDEN: LCD enable bit. Setting this bit enables the LCD controller. 13 CDENTX: Codec interface enable TX bit. Setting this bit enables the codec interface for data
transmission to an external codec device.
14 CDENRX: Codec interface enable RX bit. Setting this bit enables the codec interface for data
reception from an external codec device. NOTE:Both CDENRX and CDENTX need to be enabled / disabled in tandem, otherwise data may
be lost.
15 SIREN: HP SIR protocol encoding enable bit. This bit will have no effect if the UART is not
enabled.
16:17 ADCKSEL: Microwire / SPI peripheral clock speed select. This two-bit field selects the frequency
of the ADC sample clock, which is twice the frequency of the synchronous serial ADC interface clock. The table below shows the available frequencies for operation when in PLL mode. These bits are also used to select the shift clock frequency for the SSI2 interface when set into master mode. The frequencies obtained in 13.0 MHz mode can be found in Table 23.
ADCKSEL ADC Sample Frequency
(kHz) — SMPCLK
00 8 4 01 32 16 10 128 64 11 256 128
18 EXCKEN: External expansion clock enable. If this bit is set, the EXPCLK is enabled continuously
as a free running clock with the same frequency and phase as the CPU clock, assuming that the main oscillator is running. This bit should not be left set all the time for power consumption rea­sons. If the system enters the Standby State, the EXPCLK will become undefined. If this bit is clear, EXPCLK will be active during memory cycles to expansion slots that have external wait state generation enabled only.
19 WAKEDIS: Setting this bit disables waking up from the Standby State, via the wakeup input. 20 IRTXM: IrDA TX mode bit. This bit controls the IrDA encoding strategy. Clearing this bit means
that each zero bit transmitted is represented as a pulse of width 3/16th of the bit rate period. Set­ting this bit means each zero bit is represented as a pulse of width 3/16th of the period of 115,200-bit rate clock (i.e., 1.6 less power, but will probably reduce transmission distances.

This register is an extension of SYSCON1, containing additional control for the EP7212, for compat­ibility with CL-PS7111. The bits of this second system control register are defined below. The SYSCON2 register is reset to all 0s on power up.
Bit Description
0 SERSEL:The only affect of this bit is to select either SSI2 or the codec to interface to the external
pins. See the table below for the selection options. NOTE: If the DAISEL bit of SYSCON3 is set, then it overrides the state of the SERSEL
bit, and thus the external pins are connected to the DAI interface.
SERSEL Value Selected Serial Device to
External Pins
0 Master / slave SSI2 1 Codec
1 KBD6: The state of this bit determines how many of the Port A inputs are OR’ed together to cre-
ate the keyboard interrupt. When zero (the reset state), all eight of the Port A inputs will generate a keyboard interrupt. When set high, only Port A bits 0 to 5 will generate an interrupt from the keyboard. It is assumed that the keyboard row lines are connected into Port A.
2 DRAMZ: This bit determines the width of the DRAM memory interface, where: 0=32-bit DRAM
and 1=16-bit DRAM.
3 KBWEN: When the KBWEN bit is high, the EP7212 will awaken from a power saving state into
the Operating State when a high signal is on one of Port A’s inputs (irrespective of the state of the interrupt mask register). This is called the Keyboard Direct Wakeup mode. In this mode, the inter­rupt request does not have to get serviced. If the interrupt is masked (i.e., the interrupt mask reg­ister 2 (INTMR2) bit 0 is low), the processor simply starts re-executing code from where it left off before it entered the power saving state. If the interrupt is non-masked, then the processor will service the interrupt.
4 SS2TXEN: Transmit enable for the synchronous serial interface 2. The transmit side of SSI2 will
be disabled until this bit is set. When set low, this bit also disables the SSICLK pin (to save power) in master mode, if the receive side is low.
5 PC CARD1: Enable for the interface to the CL-PS6700 device for PC Card slot 1. The main effect
of this bit is to reassign the functionality of Port B, bit 0 to the PRDY input from the CL-PS6700 devices, and to ensure that any access to the nCS4 address space will be according to the CL-PS6700 interface protocol.

6 PC CARD2: Enable for the interface to the CL-PS6700 device for PC Card slot 2. The main effect
of this bit is to reassign the functionality of Port B, bit 1 to the PRDY input from the CL-PS6700 devices and to ensure that any access to the nCS5 address space will be according to the CL-PS6700 interface protocol.
7 SS2RXEN: Receive enable for the synchronous serial interface 2. The receive side of SSI2 will
be disabled until this bit is set. When both SSI2TXEN and SSI2RXEN are disabled, the SSI2
interface will be in a power saving state. 8 UART2EN: Internal UART2 enable bit. Setting this bit enables the internal UART2. 9 SS2MAEN: Master mode enable for the synchronous serial interface 2. When low, SSI2 will be
configured for slave mode operation. When high, SSI2 will be configured for master mode opera-
tion. This bit also controls the directionality of the interface pins. 12 OSTB: This bit (operating system timing bit) is for use only with the 13 MHz clock source mode.
Normally it will be set low, however when set high it will cause a 500 kHz clock to be generated
for the timers instead of the 541 kHz which would normally be available. The divider to generate
this frequency is not clocked when this bit is set low. 13 CLKENSL: CLKEN select. When low, the CLKEN signal will be output on the RUN/CLKEN pin.
When high, the RUN signal will be output on RUN/CLKEN. 14 BUZFREQ: The BUZFREQ bit is used to select which hardware source will be used as the
source to drive the buzzer output pin. When BUZFREQ = 0, the buzzer signal generated from the
on-chip timer (TC1) is output. When BUZFREQ = 1, a fixed frequency clock is output (500 Hz
when running from the PLL, 528 Hz in the 13 MHz external clock mode). See the BZMOD and
the BZTOG bits (SYSCON2) for more details.

The system status flags register is a 32-bit read only register, which indicates various system infor­mation. The bits in the system status flags register SYSFLG1 are defined in Table 32.
Bit Description
0 MCDR: Media changed direct read. This bit reflects the INVERTED non-latched status of the
media changed input. 1 DCDET: This bit will be set if a non-battery operated power supply is powering the system (it is
the inverted state of the nEXTPWR input pin). 2 WUDR: Wake up direct read. This bit reflects the non-latched state of the wakeup signal. 3 WUON: This bit will be set if the system has been brought out of the Standby State by a rising
edge on the wakeup signal. It is cleared by a system reset or by writing to the HALT or STDBY
locations. 4:7 DID: Display ID nibble. This 4-bit nibble reflects the latched state of the four LCD data lines. The
state of the four LCD data lines is latched by the LCDEN bit, and so it will always reflect the last
state of these lines before the LCD controller was enabled. 8 CTS: This bit reflects the current status of the clear to send (CTS) modem control input to
UART1. 9 DSR: This bit reflects the current status of the data set ready (DSR) modem control input to
UART1. 10 DCD: This bit reflects the current status of the data carrier detect (DCD) modem control input to
UART1. 11 UBUSY1: UART1 transmitter busy. This bit is set while UART1 is busy transmitting data, it is
guaranteed to remain set until the complete byte has been sent, including all stop bits. 12 NBFLG: New battery flag. This bit will be set if a low to high transition has occurred on the
nBATCHG input, it is cleared by writing to the STFCLR location. 13 RSTFLG: Reset flag. This bit will be set if the RESET button has been pressed, forcing the
nURESET input low. It is cleared by writing to the STFCLR location. 14 PFFLG: Power Fail Flag. This bit will be set if the system has been reset by the nPWRFL input
pin, it is cleared by writing to the STFCLR location. 15 CLDFLG: Cold start flag. This bit will be set if the EP7212 has been reset with a power on reset,
it is cleared by writing to the STFCLR location.

ment of the RTC. It is the output of the divide by 64 chain that divides the 64 Hz tick clock down to 1 Hz for the RTC. The MSB is the 32 Hz output, the LSB is the 1 Hz output.
22 URXFE1: UART1 receiver FIFO empty. The meaning of this bit depends on the state of the UFI-
FOEN bit in the UART1 bit rate and line control register. If the FIFO is disabled, this bit will be set when the RX holding register is empty. If the FIFO is enabled, the URXFE bit will be set when the RX FIFO is empty.
23 UTXFF1: UART1 transmit FIFO full. The meaning of this bit depends on the state of the UFI-
FOEN bit in the UART1 bit rate and line control register. If the FIFO is disabled, this bit will be set when the TX holding register is full. If the FIFO is enabled, the UTXFF bit will be set when the TX
FIFO is full. 24 CRXFE: Codec RX FIFO empty bit. This will be set if the 16-byte codec RX FIFO is empty. 25 CTXFF: Codec TX FIFO full bit. This will be set if the 16-byte codec TX FIFO is full. 26 SSIBUSY: Synchronous serial interface busy bit. This bit will be set while data is being shifted in
or out of the synchronous serial interface, when clear data is valid to read. 27:28 BOOTBIT0–1: These bits indicate the default (power-on reset) bus width of the ROM interface.

This register is an extension of SYSFLG1, containing status bits for backward compatibility with CL­PS7111. The bits of the second system status register are defined in Table 33.
Bit Description
0 SS2RXOF: Master / slave SSI2 RX FIFO overflow. This bit is set when a write is attempted to a
full RX FIFO (i.e., when RX is still receiving data and the FIFO is full). This can be cleared in one of two ways:
1. Empty the FIFO (remove data from FIFO) and then write to SRXEOF location.
2. Disable the RX (affects of disabling the RX will not take place until a full SSI2 clock cycle after it is disabled)
1 RESVAL: Master / slave SSI2 RX FIFO residual byte present, cleared by popping the residual
byte into the SSI2 RX FIFO or by a new RX frame sync pulse.
2 RESFRM: Master / slave SSI2 RX FIFO residual byte present, cleared only by a new RX frame
sync pulse.
3 SS2RXFE: Master / slave SSI2 RX FIFO empty bit. This will be set if the 16 x 16 RX FIFO is
empty.
4 SS2TXFF: Master / slave SSI2 TX FIFO full bit. This will be set if the 16 x 16 TX FIFO is full. This
will get cleared when data is removed from the FIFO or the EP7212 is reset.
5 SS2TXUF: Master / slave SSI2 TX FIFO Underflow bit. This will be set if there is attempt to trans-
mit when TX FIFO is empty. This will be cleared when FIFO gets loaded with data.
6 CKMODE: This bit reflects the status of the CLKSEL (PE[2]) input, latched during nPOR. When
low, the PLL is running and the chip is operating in 18.432–73.728 MHz mode. When high the chip is operating from an external 13 MHz clock.
11 UBUSY2: UART2 transmitter busy. This bit is set while UART2 is busy transmitting data; it is
guaranteed to remain set until the complete byte has been sent, including all stop bits.
22 URXFE2: UART2 receiver FIFO empty. The meaning of this bit depends on the state of the UFI-
FOEN bit in the UART2 bit rate and line control register. If the FIFO is disabled, this bit will be set when the RX holding register contains is empty. If the FIFO is enabled, the URXFE bit will be set when the RX FIFO is empty.
23 UTXFF2: UART2 transmit FIFO full. The meaning of this bit depends on the state of the UFI-
FOEN bit in the UART2 bit rate and line control register. If the FIFO is disabled, this bit will be set when the TX holding register is full. If the FIFO is enabled, the UTXFF bit will be set when the TX FIFO is full.

The interrupt status register is a 32-bit read only register. The interrupt status register reflects the cur­rent state of the first 16 interrupt sources within the EP7212. Each bit is set if the appropriate interrupt is active. The interrupt assignment is given in Table 34.
Bit Description
0 EXTFIQ: External fast interrupt. This interrupt will be active if the nEXTFIQ input pin is forced low and is
mapped to the FIQ input on the ARM720T processor.
1 BLINT: Battery low interrupt. This interrupt will be active if no external supply is present (nEXTPWR is
high) and the battery OK input pin BATOK is forced low . This interrupt is de-glitched with a 16 kHz clock, so it will only generate an interrupt if it is active for longer than 125 on the ARM720T processor and is cleared by writing to the BLEOI location. NOTE: BLINT is disabled during the Standby State.
2 WEINT: Tick Watch dog expired interrupt. This interrupt will become active on a rising edge of the peri-
odic 64 Hz tick interrupt clock if the tick interrupt is still active (i.e., if a tick interrupt has not been ser­viced for a complete tick period). It is mapped to the FIQ input on the ARM720T processor and the TEOI location. NOTE: WEINT is disabled during the Standby State.
Watch dog timer tick rate is 64 Hz (in 13 MHz and 73.728–18.432 MHz modes). Watchdog timer is turned off during the Standby State.
3 MCINT: Media changed interrupt. This interrupt will be active after a rising edge on the nMEDCHG input
pin has been detected, This input is de-glitched with a 16 kHz clock so it will only generate an interrupt if it is active for longer than 125 cleared by writing to the MCEOI location. On power-up, the Media change pin (nMEDCHG) is used as an input to force the processor to either boot from the internal Boot ROM, or from external memory. After power-up, the pin can be used as a general purpose FIQ interrupt pin.
4 CSINT: Codec sound interrupt, generated when the data FIFO has reached half full or empty (depend-

11 TINT: 64 Hz tick interrupt. This interrupt becomes active on every rising edge of the internal
64 Hz clock signal. This 64 Hz clock is derived from the 15-stage ripple counter that divides the
32.768 kHz oscillator input down to 1 Hz for the Real Time Clock. This interrupt is cleared by writing to the TEOI location. NOTE: TINT is disabled / turned off during the Standby State.
12 UTXINT1: Internal UART1 transmit FIFO half-empty interrupt. The function of this interrupt source
depends on whether the UART1 FIFO is enabled. If the FIFO is disabled (FIFOEN bit is clear in the UART1 bit rate and line control register), this interrupt will be active when there is no data in the UART1 TX data holding register and be cleared by writing to the UART1 data register. If the FIFO is enabled this interrupt will be active when the UART1 TX FIFO is half or more empty, and is cleared by filling the FIFO to at least half full.
13 URXINT1: Internal UART1 receive FIFO half full interrupt. The function of this interrupt source depends
on whether the UART1 FIFO is enabled. If the FIFO is disabled this interrupt will be active when there is valid RX data in the UART1 RX data holding register and be cleared by reading this data. If the FIFO is enabled this interrupt will be active when the UART1 RX FIFO is half or more full or if the FIFO is non empty and no more characters have been received for a three character time out period. It is cleared by reading all the data from the RX FIFO.
14 UMSINT: Internal UART1 modem status changed interrupt. This interrupt will be active if either of the
two modem status lines (CTS or DSR) change state. It is cleared by writing to the UMSEOI location.
15 SSEOTI: Synchronous serial interface end of transfer interrupt. This interrupt will be active after a com-
plete data transfer to and from the external ADC has been completed. It is cleared by reading the ADC data from the SYNCIO register.

This interrupt mask register is a 32-bit read / write register, which is used to selectively enable any of the first 16 interrupt sources within the EP7212. The four shaded interrupts all generate a fast interrupt request to the ARM720T processor (FIQ), this will cause a jump to processor virtual address
0000.0001C. All other interrupts will generate a standard interrupt request (IRQ), this will cause a jump to processor virtual address 0000.00018. Setting the appropriate bit in this register enables the corresponding interrupt. All bits are cleared by a system reset.

Reserved URXINT2 UTXINT2 Reserved SS2TX SS2RX KBDINT
This register is an extension of INTSR1, containing status bits for backward compatibility with CL­PS7111. The interrupt status register also reflects the current state of the new interrupt sources within the EP7212. Each bit is set if the appropriate interrupt is active. The interrupt assignment is given in
Table 35.
Bit Description
0 KBDINT: Keyboard interrupt. This interrupt is generated whenever a key is pressed, from the
logical OR of the first 6 or all 8 of the Port A inputs (depending on the state of the KBD6 bit in the
SYSCON2 register. The interrupt request is latched and can be de-asserted by writing to the
KBDEOI location.
NOTE: KBDINT is not deglitched. 1 SS2RX: Synchronous serial interface 2 receives FIFO half or greater full interrupt. This is gener-
ated when RX FIFO contains 8 or more half-words. This interrupt is cleared only when the RX
FIFO is emptied or one SSI2 clock after RX is disabled. 2 SS2TX: Synchronous serial interface 2 transmit FIFO less than half empty interrupt. This is gen-
erated when TX FIFO contains fewer than 8 byte pairs. This interrupt gets cleared by loading the
FIFO with more data or disabling the TX. One synchronization clock required when disabling the
TX side before it takes effect. 12 UTXINT2: UART2 transmit FIFO half empty interrupt. The function of this interrupt source
depends on whether the UART2 FIFO is enabled. If the FIFO is disabled (FIFOEN bit is clear in
the UART2 bit rate and line control register), this interrupt will be active when there is no data in
the UART2 TX data holding register and be cleared by writing to the UART2 data register. If the
FIFO is enabled, this interrupt will be active when the UART2 TX FIFO is half or more empty and
is cleared by filling the FIFO to at least half full. 13 URXINT2: UART2 receive FIFO half full interrupt. The function of this interrupt source depends
on whether the UART2 FIFO is enabled. If the FIFO is disabled, this interrupt will be active when
there is valid RX data in the UART2 RX data holding register and be cleared by reading this data.
If the FIFO is enabled, this interrupt will be active when the UART2 RX FIFO is half or more full or
if the FIFO is non-empty, and no more characters have been received for a three-character time-
out period, t is cleared by reading all the data from the RX FIFO.

31:24 23:16 15:8 7:0
nCS[3] configuration nCS[2] configuration nCS[1] configuration nCS[0] configuration
Expansion and ROM space is selected by one of eight chip selects. One of the chip selects (nCS[6]) is used internally for the on-chip SRAM, and the configuration is hardwired for 32-bit-wide, minimum­wait-state operation. nCS[7] is used for the on-chip Boot ROM and the configuration field is hardwired for 8-bit-wide, minimum-wait-state operation. Data written to the configuration fields for either nCS[6] or nCS7 will be ignored. Two of the chip selects (nCS[4:5]) can be used to access two CL-PS6700 PC CARD controller devices, and when either of these interfaces is enabled, the configuration field for the appropriate chip select in the MEMCFG2 register is ignored. When the PC CARD1 or 2 control bit in the SYSCON2 register is disabled, then nCS[4] and nCS[5] are active as normal and can be programmed using the relevant fields of MEMCFG2, as for the other four chip selects. All of the six external chip selects are active for 256 Mbytes and the timing and bus transfer width can be pro­grammed individually. This is accomplished by programming the six-byte-wide fields contained in two 32-bit registers, MEMCFG1 and MEMCFG2. All bits in these registers are cleared by a system reset (except for the nCS[6] and nCS[7] configurations).
EP7212
The Memory Configuration Register 1 is a 32-bit read / write register which sets the configuration of the four expansion and ROM selects nCS[0:3]. Each select is configured with a 1-byte field starting with expansion select 0.

CLKENB SQAEN Wait States Field Bus width
The Memory Configuration Register 2 is a 32-bit read / write register which sets the configuration of the two expansion and ROM selects nCS[4:5]. Each select is configured with a 1-byte field starting with expansion select 4.
Each of the six non-reserved byte fields for chip select configuration in the memory configuration reg­isters are identical and define the number of wait states, the bus width, enable EXPCLK output during accesses and enable sequential mode access. This byte field is defined below. This arrangement ap­plies to nCS[0:3], and nCS[4:5] when the PC CARD enable bits in the SYSCON2 register are not set. The state of these bits is ignored for the Boot ROM and local SRAM fields in the MEMCFG2 register.
Table 37 defines the bus width field. Note that the effect of this field is dependent on the two BOOTBIT
bits that can be read in the SYSFLG1 register. All bits in the memory configuration register are cleared by a system reset, and the state of the BOOTBIT bits are determined by Port E bits 0 and 1 on the EP7212 during power-on reset. The state of PE[1] and PE[0] determine whether the EP7212 is going to boot from either 32-bit-wide, 16-bit-wide or 8-bit-wide ROMs.
Table 38 shows the values for the wait states for random and sequential wait states at 13 and 18 MHz
bus rates. At 36 MHz bus rate, the encoding becomes more complex. Table 39 preserve s com pati ­bility with the previous devices, while allowing the previously unused bit combinations to specify more variations of random and sequential wait states.

Bit Description
6 SQAEN: Sequential access enable. Setting this bit will enable sequential accesses that are on a
quad word boundary to take advantage of faster access times from devices that support page
mode. The sequential access will be faulted after four words (to allow video refresh cycles to
occur), even if the access is part of a longer sequential access. In addition, when this bit is not
set, non-sequential accesses will have a single idle cycle inserted at least every four cycles so
that the chip select is de-asserted periodically between accesses for easier debug. 7 CLKENB: Expansion clock enable. Setting this bit enables the EXPCLK to be active during
accesses to the selected expansion device. This will provide a timing reference for devices that
need to extend bus cycles using the EXPRDY input. Back-to-back (but not necessarily page
mode) accesses will result in a continuous clock. This bit will only affect EXPCLK when the PLL
is being used (i.e., in 73.728–18.432 MHz mode). When operating in 13 MHz mode, the EXPCLK
pin is an input, so it is not affected by this register bit. To save power internally, it should always
be set to zero when operating in 13 MHz mode.
Table 40. MEMCFG
See the AC Electrical Specification section for more detail on bus timing. The memory area decoded by CS[6] is reserved for the on-chip SRAM, hence this does not require
a configuration field in MEMCFG2. It is automatically set up for 32-bit-wide, no-wait-state accesses. For the Boot ROM, it is automatically set up for 8-bit, no wait state accesses.
Chip selects nCS[4] and nCS[5] are used to select two CL-PS6700 PC CARD controller devices. These have a multiplexed 16-bit wide address / data interface, and the configuration bytes in the MEMCFG2 register have no meaning when these interfaces are enabled.

Drive 1 pump ratio Drive 0 from AC source ratio Drive 0 from battery ratio
The Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) pump control register is a 16-bit read / write register which sets and controls the variable mark space ratio drives for the two PWMs. All bits in this register are cleared by a system reset. (The top four bits are unused. They should be written as zeroes, and will read as undefined).
Bit Description
0:3 Drive 0 from battery: This 4-bit field controls the “on” time for the Drive 0 PWM pump while the
system is powered from batteries. Setting these bits to 0 disables this pump, while setting these bits to 1 allows the pump to be driven in a 1:16 duty ratio, 2 in a 2:16 duty ratio etc. up to a 15:16 duty ratio. An 8:16 duty ratio results in a square wave of 96 kHz when operating with an
18.432 MHz master clock, or 101.6 kHz when operating from the 13 MHz source.
4:7 Drive 0 from AC: This 4-bit field controls the “on” time for the Drive 0 DC to DC pump, while the
system is powered from a non-battery type power source. Setting these bits to 0 disables this pump, setting these bits to 1 allows the pump to be driven in a 1:16 duty ratio, 2 in a 2:16 duty ratio, etc. up to a 15:16 duty ratio. An 8:16 duty ratio results in a square wave of 96 kHz when operating with an 18.432 MHz master clock, or 101.6 kHz when operating from the 13 MHz source. NOTE: The EP7212 monitor s the power supply input pins (i.e., BATOK and NE XTPWR) to
determine which of the above fields to use.
8:11 Drive 1 pump ratio: This 4-bit field controls the “on” time for the drive1 PWM pump. Setting
these bits to 0 disables this pump, while setting these bits to 1 allows the pump to be driven in a 1:16 duty ratio, 2 in a 2:16 duty ratio, etc. up to a 15:16 duty ratio. An 8:16 duty ratio results in a square wave of 96 kHz when operating with an 18.432 MHz master clock, or 101.6 kHz when operating from the 13 MHz source.

The state of the output drive pins is latched during power on reset, this latched value is used to de­termine the polarity of the drive output. The sense of the PWM control lines is summarized in

External input pins that would normally be connected to the output from comparators monitoring the PWM output are also used to enable these clocks. These are the FB[0:1] pins. When FB[0] is high, the PWM is disabled. The same applies to FB[1]. They are read upon power-up.
NOTE: To maximize power savings, the drive ratio fields shou ld be used to disable the PWMs,
instead of the FB pins. The clocks that source the PWMs are disabled when the drive ratio fields are zeroed.

5.8 CODR — The CODEC Interface Data Register

ADDRESS: 0x8000.0440
The CODR register is an 8-bit read / write register, to be used with the codec interface. This is select­ed by the appropriate setting of bit 0 (SERSEL) of the SYSCON2 register. Data written to or read from this register is pushed or popped onto the appropriate 16-byte FIFO buffer. Data from this buffer is then serialized and sent to or received from the codec sound device. When the codec is enabled, the codec interrupt CSINT is generated repetitively at 1/8th of the byte transfer rate and the state of the FIFOs can be read in the system flags register. The net data transfer rate to / from the codec device is 8 kBytes/s, giving an interrupt rate of 1 kHz.

OVERR PARERR FRMERR RX data
EP7212
The UARTDR registers are 11-bit read and 8-bit write registers for all data transfers to or from the internal UARTs 1 and 2.
Data written to these registers is pushed onto the 16-byte data TX holding FIFO if the FIFO is enabled. If not it is stored in a one byte holding register. This write will initiate transmission from the UART.
The UART data read registers are made up of the 8-bit data byte received from the UART together with three bits of error status. If the FIFO is enabled, data read from this register is popped from the 16 byte data RX FIFO. If the FIFO is not enabled, it is read from a one byte buffer register containing the last byte received by the UART. If it is enabled, data received and error status is automatically pushed onto the RX FIFO. The RX FIFO is 10-bits wide by 16 deep.
NOTE: These registers should be accessed as words.
Bit Description
8 FRMERR: UART framing error. This bit is set if the UART detected a framing error while receiv-
ing the associated data byte. Framing errors are caused by non-matching word lengths or bit
rates. 9 PARERR: UART parity error. This bit is set if the UART detected a parity error while receiving the
data byte. 10 OVERR: UART over-run error. This bit is set if more data is received by the UART and the FIFO
is full. The overrun error bit is not associated with any single character and so is not stored in the
FIFO. If this bit is set, the entire contents of the FIFO is invalid and should be cleared. This error
bit is cleared by reading the UARTDR register.

The bit rate divisor and line control register is a 19-bit read / write register. Writing to these registers sets the bit rate and mode of operation for the internal UARTs.
Bit Description
0:11 Bit rate divisor: This 12-bit field sets the bit rate. If the system is operating from the PLL clock,
then the bit rate divider is fed by a clock frequency of 3.6864 MHz, which is then further divided internally by 16 to give the bit rate. The formula to give the divisor value for any bit rate when operating from the PLL clock is: Divisor = 230400 / (bit rate divisor + 1). A value of zero in this field is illegal when running from the PLL clock. The ta bl es b elo w s how so me exa mple b it rat es with the correspondi ng divi sor value. In 13 MHz mode, the clock frequen cy fed t o the UAR T is
1.8571 MHz. In this mode, zero is a lega l divisor val ue, and wil l generate the maximum possible bit rate. The tables below show the bit rates available for both 18.432 MHz and 13 MHz operation.

The LCD control register is a 32-bit read / write register that controls the size of the LCD screen and the operating mode of the LCD controller. Refer to the system description of the LCD controller for more information on video buffer mapping.
The LCDCON register should only be reprogrammed when the LCD controller is disabled.
Bit Description
0:12 Video buffer size: The video buffer size field is a 13-bit field that sets the total number of bits x
128 (quad words) in the video display buffer. This is calculated from the formula:
Video buffer size = (Total bits in video buffer / 128) – 1
i.e., for a 640 x 240 LCD and 4 bits-per-pixel, the size of the video buffer is equal to 614400 bits. Video buffer = 640 x 240 x 4=614400 bits Video buffer size field = (614400 / 128) – 1 = 4799 or 0x12BF hex.
The minimum value allowed is 3 for this bit field.
13:18 Line length: The line length field is a 6-bit field that sets the number of pixels in one complete
line. This field is calculated from the formula:
line length = (Number of pixels in line / 16) – 1 i.e., for 640 x 240 LCD Line length = (640 / 16) – 1 = 39 or 0x27 hex.
The minimum value that can be programmed into this register is a 1 (i.e., 0 is not a legal value).

19:24 Pixel prescale: The pixel prescale field is a 6-bit field that sets the pixel rate prescale. The pixel
rate is always derived from a 36.864 MHz clock when in PLL mode, and is calculated from the formula: Pixel rate (MHz) = 36.864 / (Pixel prescale + 1) When the EP7212 is operating at 13 MHz, pixel rate is given by the formula:
Pixel rate (MHz) = 13 / (Pixel prescale + 1) The pixel prescale value can be expressed in terms of the LCD size by the formula: When the EP7212 is operating @ 18.432 MHz:
Pixel prescale = (36864000 / (Refresh Rate x Total pixels in display)) – 1 When the EP7212 is operating @ 13 MHz:
Pixel prescale = (13000000 / (Refresh Rate x Total pixels in display)) – 1 Refresh Rate is the screen refresh frequency (70 Hz to avoid flicker) The value should be rounded down to the nearest whole number and zero is illegal and will result in no pixel clock. EXAMPLE: For a system being operated in the 18.432–73.728 MHz mode, with a 640 x 240 screen size, and 70 Hz screen refresh rate desired, the LCD Pixel prescale equals 36.864E6 / (70 x 640x240) – 1 = 2.428 Rounding 2.428 down to the nearest whole number equals 2. This gives an actual pixel rate of 36.864E6 / (2+1) = 12.288 MHz, which gives an actual refresh frequency of 12.288E6 / (640x240) = 80 Hz. NOTE: As the CL[2] low pulse time i s doubled after every CL[1] hi gh pulse this refresh fre-
quency is only an approximation, the accurate formula is 12.288E6 / ((640x240)+120) = 79.937 Hz.
25:29 AC prescale: The AC prescale field is a 5-bit number that sets the LCD AC bias frequency. This
frequency is the required AC bias frequency for a given manufacturer’s LCD plate. This fre­quency is derived from the frequency of the line clock (CL[1]). The LCD M signal will toggle after n+1 counts of the line clock (CL[1]) where n is the number programmed into the AC prescale field. This number must be chosen to match the manufacturer’s recommendation. This is nor­mally 13, but must not be exactly divisible by the number of lines in the display.
30 GSEN: Grayscale enable bit. Setting this bit enables grayscale output to the LCD. When this bit
is cleared, each bit in the video map directly corresponds to a pixel in the display.
31 GSMD: Grayscale mode bit. Clearing this bit sets the controller to 2 bits-per-pixel (4 grayscale),
setting it sets it to 4 bits-per-pixel (16 grayscale). This bit has no effect if GSEN is cleared.

The least and most significant word LCD palette registers make up a 64-bit read / write register which maps the logical pixel value to a physical grayscale level. The 64-bit register is made up of 16 x 4-bit nibbles, each nibble defines the grayscale level associated with the appropriate pixel value. If the LCD controller is operating in two bits-per-pixel, only the lower 4 nibbles are valid (D[15:0] in the least sig­nificant word). Similarly, one bit-per-pixel means only the lower 2 nibbles are valid (D[7:0]) in the least significant word.

The pixel to grayscale level assignments and the actual physical color and pixel duty ratio for the gray­scale values are shown in Table 48. Note that colors 8–15 are the inverse of colors 7–0 respectively. This means that colors 7 and 8 are identical. Therefore, in reality only 15 grayscales available, not 16. The steps in the grayscale are non-linear, but have been chosen to give a close approximation to per­ceived linear grayscales. The is due to the eye being more sensitive to changes in gray level close to 50% gray (See PALLSW description).

5.10.4 FBADDR LCD Frame Buffer Start Address

ADDRESS: 0x8000.1000
This register contains the start address for the LCD Frame Buffer. It is assumed that the frame buffer starts at location 0x0000000 within each chip select memory region. Therefore, the value stored with­in the FBADDR register is only the value of the chip select where the frame buffer is located. On reset, this will be set to 0xC. The register is 4 bits wide (bits [3:0]). This register must only be reprogrammed when the LCD is disabled (i.e., setting the LCDEN bit within SYSCON2 low).

5.11 SSI Register

5.11.1 SYNCIO Synchronous Serial ADC Interface Data Register

ADDRESS: 0x8000.0500
In the default mode, the bits in SYNCIO have the following meaning:
31:15 14 13 12:8 7:0
Reserved TXFRMEN SMCKEN Frame length ADC Configuration Byte
Whereas in extended mode, the following applies:
15 14 13 12:7 6:0
Reserved TXFRMEN SMCKEN Frame length ADC Configuration Length
ADC Configuration Extension
NOTE: The frame length in extended mode is 6 bits wide to allow up to 16 write bits, 1 null bit and 16 read bits
(= 33 cycles).
SYNCIO is a 32-bit read / write register. The data written to the SYNCIO register configures the mas­ter only SSI. In default mode, the least significant byte is serialized and transmitted out of the synchro­nous serial interface1 (i.e., SSI1) to configure an external ADC, MSB first. In extended mode, a variable number of bits are sent from SYNCIO[16:31] as determined by the ADC Configuration Length. The transfer clock will automatically be started at the programmed frequency and a synchro­nization pulse will be issued. The ADCIN pin is sampled on every positive going clock edge (or the falling clock edge, if ADCCKNSEN in SYSCON3 is set) and the result is shifted in to the SYNCIO read register.
During data transfer, the SSIBUSY bit is set high; at the end of a transfer the SSEOTI interrupt will be asserted. To clear the interrupt the SYNCIO register must be read. The data read from the SYNCIO register is the last sixteen bits shifted out of the ADC.
The length of the data frame can be programmed by writing to the SYNCIO register. This allows many different ADCs to be accommodated. The device is SPI- / Microwire-compatible (transfers are in mul­tiples of 8 bits). However, to be compatible with some non-SPI / Microwire devices, the data written to the ADC device can be anything between 8 to 16 bits. This is user-definable per the ADC Config­uration Extension section of the SYNCIO register.
Bit Description
0:7 or 0:6 ADC Configuration Byte: When the ADCCON control bit in the SYSCON3 register = 0, this is
the 8-bit configuration data to be sent to the ADC. When the ADCCON control bit in the SYSCON3 register = 1, this field determines the length of the ADC configuration data held in the ADC Configuration Extension field for sending to the ADC.
8:12 or 7:12 Frame length: The Frame Length field is the total number of shift clocks required to complete a
data transfer. In default mode, MAX148/9 (and for many ADCs), this is 25 = (8 for configuration byte + 1 null bit + 16 bits result). In extended mode, AD781 1/12, this is 23 = (10 for configuration byte + 3 null + 10 bits result).

Bit Description
13 SMCKEN: Setting this bit will enable a free running sample clock at twice the programmed ADC
clock frequency to be output on the SMPLCK pin.
14 TXFRMEN: Setting this bit will cause an ADC data transfer to be initiated. The value in the ADC
configuration field will be shifted out to the ADC and depending on the frame length programmed, a number of bits will be captured from the ADC. If the SYNCIO register is written to with the TXFRMEN bit low, no ADC transfer will take place, but the Frame length and SMCKEN bits will be affected.
16:31 ADC Configuration Extension: When the ADCCON control bit in the SYSCON3 register = 0,
this field is ignored for compatibility with the CL-PS7111. When the ADCCON control bit in the SYSCON3 register = 1, this field is the configuration data to be sent to the ADC. The ADC Con­figuration Extension field length is determined by the value held in the ADC Configuration Length field (SYNCIO[6:0]).

5.12 STFCLR Clear all ‘Start Up Reason’ flags location

ADDRESS: 0x8000.05C0
A write to this location will clear all the ‘Start Up Reason’ flags in the system flag s status register SYS­FLG. The ‘Start Up Reason’ flags should first read to determine the reason why the chip was started (i.e., a new battery was installed). Any value may be written to this location.

5.13 End Of Interrupt Locations

The ‘End of Interrupt’ locations that follow are written to after the appropriate interrupt has been ser­viced. The write is performed to clear the interrupt status bit, so that other interrupts can be serviced. Any value may be written to these locations.

5.13.1 BLEOI Battery Low End of Interrupt

ADDRESS: 0x8000.0600
A write to this location will clear the interrupt generated by a low battery (falling edge of BATOK with nEXTPWR high).

5.13.2 MCEOI Media Changed End of Interrupt

ADDRESS: 0x8000.0640
A write to this location will clear the interrupt generated by a falling edge of the nMEDCHG input pin.

5.13.3 TEOI Tick End of Interrupt Location

A write to this location clears the KBDINT keyboard interrupt.

5.13.10 SRXEOF End of Interrupt Location

ADDRESS: 0x8000.1600
A write to this location clears the SSI2 RX FIFO overflow status bit.

5.14 State Control Registers

5.14.1 STDBY Enter the Standby State Location

ADDRESS: 0x8000.0840
A write to this location will put the system into the Standby State by halting the main oscillator. A write to this location while there is an active interrupt will have no effect.
NOTES: 1) Before entering the Standby State, the LCD Controller should be disabled. The LCD
controller should be enabled on exit from the Standby State.
2) If the EP7212 is attempti ng to get into the Standby State when there is a pending interrupt request, it will not enter into the low power mode. The instruction will get executed, but the processor will ignore the command.

5.14.2 HALT Enter the Idle State Location

ADDRESS: 0x8000.0800
A write to this location will put the system into the Idle State by halting the clock to the processor until an interrupt is generated. A write to this location while there is an active interrupt will have no effect.

5.15 SS2 Registers

5.15.1 SS2DR Synchronous Serial Interface 2 Data Register

ADDRESS: 0x8000.1500
This is the 16-bit-wide data register for the full-duplex master / slave SSI2 synchronous serial inter­face. Writing data to this register will initiate a transfer. Writes need to be word writes and the bottom 16 bits are transferred to the TX FIFO. Reads will be 32 bits as well with the lower 16 bits containing RX data, and the upper 16-bits should be ignored. Although the interface is byte-oriented, data is writ­ten in two bytes at a time to allow higher bandwidth transfer. It is up to the software to assemble the bytes for the data stream in an appropriate manner.
All reads / writes to this register must be word reads / writes.

5.15.2 SS2POP Synchronous Serial Interface 2 Pop Residual Byte

ADDRESS: 0x8000.16C0
This is a write-only location which will cause the contents of the RX shift register to be popped into the RX FIFO, thus enabling a residual byte to be read. The data value written to this register is ig­nored. This location should be used in conjunction with the RESVAL and RESFRM bits in the SYSFLG2 register.

5.16 DAI Register Definitions

There are five registers within the DAI Interface, one control register, three data registers, and one status register. The control register is used to mask or unmask interrupt requests to service the DAI’s FIFOs, and to select whether an on-chip or off-chip clock is used to drive the bit rate, and to enable / disable operation. The first pair of data register addresses the top of the Right Channel Transmit FIFO and the bottom of the Right Channel Receive FIFO. A read accesses the receive FIFOs, and a write the transmit FIFOs. Note that these are four physically separate FIFOs to allow full-duplex transmis­sion. The status register contains bits which signal FIFO overrun and underrun errors and transmit and receive FIFO service requests. Each of these status conditions signal an interrupt request to the interrupt controller. The status register also flags when the transmit FIFOs are not full when the re­ceive FIFOs are not empty.

86 DS474PP1
5.16.1.1 DAI Enable (DAIEN)
The DAI enable (DAIEN) bit is used to enable and disable all DAI operation. When the DAI is disabled, all of its clocks are powered down to minimize power consumption. Note
that DAIEN is the only control bit within the DAI interface that is reset to a known state. It is cleared to zero to ensure the DAI timing is disabled following a reset of the device.
When the DAI timing is enabled, SCLK begins to transition and the start of the first frame is signaled by driving the LRCK pin low. The rising and falling-edge of LRCK coincides with the rising and falling­edge of SCLK. As long as the DAIEN bit is set, the DAI interface operates continuously, transmitting and receiving 128 bit data frames. When the DAIEN bit is cleared, the DAI interface is disabled im­mediately, causing the current frame which is being transmitted to be terminated. Clearing DAIEN re­sets the DAI’s interface FIFOs. However DAI data register 3, the control register and the status register are not reset. Therefore, the user must ensure these registers are properly reconfigured be­fore re-enabling the DAI interface.
5.16.1.2 DAI Interrupt Generation
The DAI interface can generate four maskable interrupts and four non-maskable interrupts, as de­scribed in the sections below. Only one interrupt line is wired into the interrupt controller for the whole DAI interface. This interrupt is the wired OR of all eight interrupts (after masking where appropriate). The software servicing the interrupts must read the status register in the DAI to determine which source(s) caused the interrupt. It is possible to prevent any DAI sources causing an interrupt by mask­ing the DAI interrupt in the interrupt controller register.
EP7212
5.16.1.3 Left Channel Transmit FIFO Interrupt Mask (LCTM)
The Left channel sample transmit FIFO interrupt mask (LCTM) bit is used to mask or enable the left channel sample transmit FIFO service request interrupt. When LATM = 0, the interrupt is masked and the state of the Left Channel Transmit FIFO service request (LCTS) bit within the DAI status register is ignored by the interrupt controller. When LCTM = 1, the interrupt is enabled and whenever LCTS is set (one) an interrupt request is made to the interrupt controller. Note that programming LCTM = 0 does not affect the current state of LCTS or the Left Channel Transmit FIFO logic’s ability to set and clear LCTS; it only blocks the generation of the interrupt request.
5.16.1.4 Left Channel Receive FIFO Interrupt Mask (LARM)
The left channel sample receive FIFO interrupt mask (LCRM) bit is used to mask or enable the Left Channel Receive FIFO service request interrupt. When LCRM = 0, the interrupt is masked and the state of the left channel sample receive FIFO service request (LCRS) bit within the DAI status register is ignored by the interrupt controller. When LCRM = 1, the interrupt is enabled and whenever LCRS is set (one) an interrupt request is made to the interrupt controller. Note that programming LCRM = 0 does not affect the current state of LCRS or the Left Channel Receive FIFO logic’s ability to set and clear LCRS, it only blocks the generation of the interrupt request.
5.16.1.5 Right Channel Transmit FIFO Interrupt Mask (RCTM)
The Right Channel Transmit FIFO interrupt mask (RCTM) bit is used to mask or enable the right chan­nel transmit FIFO service request interrupt. When RCTM = 0, the interrupt is masked and the state of the Right Channel Transmit FIFO service request (RCTS) bit within the DAI status register is ignored by the interrupt controller. When RCTM = 1, the interrupt is enabled and whenever RCTS is set (one) an interrupt request is made to the interrupt controller. Note that programming RCTM = 0 does not affect the current state of RCTS or the Right Channel Transmit FIFO logic’s ability to set and clear RCTS, for it only blocks the generation of the interrupt request.
DS474PP1 87
5.16.1.6 Right Channel Receive FIFO Interrupt Mask (RCRM)
The Right Channel Receive FIFO interrupt mask (RCRM) bit is used to mask or enable the Right Channel Receive FIFO service request interrupt. When RCRM = 0, the interrupt is masked and the state of the Right Channel Receive FIFO service request (RCRS) bit within the DAI status register is ignored by the interrupt controller. When RCRM = 1, the interrupt is enabled, and whenever RCRS is set (one), an interrupt request is made to the interrupt controller. Note that programming RCRM = 0 does not affect the current state of RCRS or the Right Channel Receive FIFO logic’s ability to set and clear RCRS, for it only blocks the generation of the interrupt request.
5.16.1.7 Loopback Mode (LBM)
The Loopback mode (LBM) bit is used to enable and disable the ability of the DAI’s transmit and re­ceive logic to communicate. When LBM = 0, the DAI operates normally. The transmit and receive data paths are independent and communicate via their respective pins. When LBM = 1, the output of the serial shifter (MSB) is directly connected to the input of the serial shifter (LSB) internally and control of the SDOUT, SDIN, SCLK, and LRCK pins are given to the peripheral pin control (PPC) unit.
Table 50 shows the bit locations corresponding to the ten different control bit fields within the DAI con-
trol register. Note that the DAIEN bit is the only control bit which is reset to a known state to ensure the DAI is disabled following a reset of the device. The reset state of all other control bits is unknown and must be initialized before enabling the DAI. Writes to reserved bits are ignored, and reads return zeros.

5.16.2 DAI Data Registers

The DAI contains three data registers: DAIDR0 addresses the top entry of the Right Channel Transmit FIFO and bottom entry of the Right Channel Receive FIFO; DAIDR1 addresses the top and bottom entry of the Left Channel Transmit and Receive FIFOs, respectively; and DAIDR2 is used to perform enable and disable the DAI FIFOs.

Read Access

Reserved Top of Right Channel Transmit FIFO
Write Access
When DAI Data Register 0 (DAIDR0) is read, the bottom entry of the Right Channel Receive FIFO is accessed. As data is removed by the DAI’s receive logic from the incoming data fram e, it is placed into the top entry of the Right Channel Receive FIFO and is transferred down an entry at a time until it reaches the last empty location within the FIFO. Data is removed by reading DAIDR0, which ac­cesses the bottom entry of the right channel FIFO. After DAIDR0 is read, the bottom entry is invali­dated, and all remaining values within the FIFO automatically transfer down one location.
When DAIDR0 is written, the top-most entry of the Right Channel Transmit FIFO is accessed. After a write, data is automatically transferred down to the lowest location within the transmit FIFO which does not already contain valid data. Data is removed from the bottom of the FIFO one value at a time by the transmit logic, loaded into the correct position within the 64-bit transmit serial shifter, then se­rially shifted out onto the SDOUT pin.
Table 51 shows DAIDR0. Note that the Transmit and Receive Right Channel FIFOs are cleared when
the device is reset, or by writing a zero to DAIEN (DAI disabled). Also, note that writes to reserved bits are ignored and reads return zeros.

Data is removed by reading DAIDR1, which accesses the bottom entry of the left channel FIFO. After DAIDR1 is read, the bottom entry is invalidated, and all remaining values within the FIFO automatically transfer down one location.
When DAIDR1 is written, the top-most entry of the Left Channel Transmit FIFO is accessed. After a write, data is automatically transferred down to the lowest location within the transmit FIFO which does not already contain valid data.

5.16.3 DAISR DAI Status Register

ADDRESS: 0x8000.2100
The DAI Status Register (DAISR) contains bits which signal FIFO overrun and underrun errors and FIFO service requests. Each of these conditions signal an interrupt request to the interrupt controller. The status register also flags when transmit FIFOs are not full, when the receive FIFOs are not empty, when a FIFO operation is complete, and when the right channel or left channel portion of the codec is enabled (no interrupt generated).
Bits which cause an interrupt signal the interrupt request as long as the bit is set. Once the bit is cleared, the interrupt is cleared. Read / write bits are called status bits, read-only bits are called flags. Status bi ts ar e re ferr ed to as “sticky” (once set by hardware, they must be cleared by software). Writ­ing a one to a sticky status bit clears it, while writing a zero has no effect. Read-only flags are set and cleared by hardware, and writes have no effect. Additionally, some bits which cause interrupts have corresponding mask bits in the control register and are indicated in the section headings below. Note that the user has the ability to mask all DAI interrupts by clearing the DAI bit within the interrupt con­troller mask register INTMR3.

DAI Control, Data and Status Register Locations (cont.)
5.16.3.1 Right Channel Transmit FIFO Service Request Flag (RCTS)
The Right Channel Transmit FIFO Service Request Flag (RCTS) is a read-only bit which is set when the Right Channel Transmit FIFO is nearly empty and requires service to prevent an underrun. RCTS is set any time the Right Channel Transmit FIFO has four or fewer entries of valid data (half full or less), and is cleared when it has five or more entries of valid data. When the RCTS bit is set, an in­terrupt request is made unless the Right Channel Transmit FIFO interrupt request mask (RCTM) bit is cleared. After the CPU fills the FIFO such that four or more locations are filled within the Right Chan­nel Transmit FIFO, the RCTS flag (and the service request and / or interrupt) is automatically cleared.
5.16.3.2 Right Channel Receive FIFO Service Request Flag (RCRS)
The Right Channel Receive FIFO Service Request Flag (RCRS) is a read-only bit which is set when the Right Channel Receive FIFO is nearly filled and requires service to prevent an overrun. RCRS is set any time the Right Channel Receive FIFO has six or more entries of valid data (half full or more), and cleared when it has five or fewer (less than half full) entries of data. When the RCRS bit is set, an interrupt request is made unless the Right Channel Receive FIFO interrupt request mask (RCRM) bit is cleared. After six or more entries are removed from the receive FIFO, the LCRS flag (and the service request and / or interrupt) is automatically cleared.
5.16.3.3 Left Channel Transmit FIFO Service Request Flag (LCTS)
The Left Channel Transmit FIFO Service Request Flag (LCTS) is a read-only bit which is set when the Left Channel Transmit FIFO is nearly empty and requires service to prevent an underrun. LCTS is set any time the Left Channel Transmit FIFO has four or fewer entries of valid data (half full or less). It is cleared when it has five or more entries of valid data. When the LCTS bit is set, an interrupt re­quest is made unless the Left Channel Transmit FIFO interrupt request mask (LCTM) bit is cleared. After the CPU fills the FIFO such that four or more locations are filled within the Left Channel Transmit FIFO, the LCTS flag (and the service request and / or interrupt) is automatically cleared.
EP7212
5.16.3.4 Left Channel Receive FIFO Service Request Flag (LCRS)
The Left Channel Receive FIFO Service Request Flag (LCRS) is a read-only bit which is set when the Left Channel Receive FIFO is nearly filled and requires service to prevent an overrun. LCRS is set any time the Left Channel Receive FIFO has six or more entries of valid data (half full or more), and cleared when it has five or fewer (less than half full) entries of data. When the LCRS bit is set, an interrupt request is made unless the Left Channel Receive FIFO interrupt request mask (LCRM) bit is cleared. After six or more entries are removed from the receive FIFO, the LCRS flag (and the ser­vice request and / or interrupt) is automatically cleared.
5.16.3.5 Right Channel Transmit FIFO Underrun Status (RCTU)
The Right Channel Transmit FIFO Underrun Status Bit (RCTU) is set when the Right Channel Trans­mit logic attempts to fetch data from the FIFO after it has been completely emptied. When an underrun occurs, the Right Channel Transmit logic continuously transmits the last valid right channel value which was transmitted before the underrun occurred. Once data is placed in the FIFO and it is trans­ferred down to the bottom, the Right Channel Transmit logic uses the new value within the FIFO for transmission. When the RCTU bit is set, an interrupt request is made.
5.16.3.6 Right Channel Receive FIFO Overrun Status (RCRO)
The Right Channel Receive FIFO Overrun Status Bit (RCRO) is set when the right channel receive logic attempts to place data into the Right Channel Receive FIFO after it has been completely filled. Each time a new piece of data is received, the set signal to the RCRO status bit is asserted, and the newly received data is discarded. This process is repeated for each new sample received until at least one empty FIFO entry exists. When the RCRO bit is set, an interrupt request is made.
94 DS474PP1
5.16.3.7 Left Channel Transmit FIFO Underrun Status (LCTU)
The Left Channel Transmit FIFO Underrun Status Bit (LCTU) is set when the Left Channel Transmit logic attempts to fetch data from the FIFO after it has been completely emptied. When an underrun occurs, the Left Channel Transmit logic continuously transmits the last valid left channel value which was transmitted before the underrun occurred. Once data is placed in the FIFO and it is transferred down to the bottom, the Left Channel Transmit logic uses the new value within the FIFO for transmis­sion. When the LCTU bit is set, an interrupt request is made.
5.16.3.8 Left Channel Receive FIFO Overrun Status (LCRO)
The Left Channel Receive FIFO Overrun Status Bit (LCRO) is set when the Left Channel Receive log­ic places data into the Left Channel Receive FIFO after it has been completely filled. Each time a new piece of data is received, the set signal to the LCRO status bit is asserted, and the newly received sample is discarded. This process is repeated for each new piece of data received until at least one empty FIFO entry exists. When the LCRO bit is set, an interrupt request is made.
5.16.3.9 Right Channel Transmit FIFO Not Full Flag (RCNF)
The Right Channel Transmit FIFO Not Full Flag (RCNF) is a read-only bit which is set whenever the Right Channel Transmit FIFO contains one or more entries which do not contain valid data and is cleared when the FIFO is completely full. This bit can be polled when using programmed I/O to fill the Right Channel Transmit FIFO. This bit does not request an interrupt.
EP7212
5.16.3.10 Right Channel Receive FIFO Not Empty Flag (RCNE)
The Right Channel Receive FIFO Not Empty Flag (RCNELCNF) is a read-only bit which is set when ever the Right Channel Receive FIFO contains one or more entries of valid data and is cleared when it no longer contains any valid data. This bit can be polled when using programmed I/O to remove remaining data from the receive FIFO. This bit does not request an interrupt.
5.16.3.11 Left Channel Transmit FIFO Not Full Flag (LCNF)
The Left Channel Transmit FIFO Not Full Flag (LCNF) is a read-only bit which is set when ever the Left Channel Transmit FIFO contains one or more entries which do not contain valid data. It is cleared when the FIFO is completely full. This bit can be polled when using programmed I/O to fill the Left Channel Transmit FIFO. This bit does not request an interrupt.
5.16.3.12 Left Channel Receive FIFO Not Empty Flag (LCNE)
The Left Channel Receive FIFO Not Empty Flag (LCNE) is a read-only bit which is set when ever the Left Channel Receive FIFO contains one or more entries of valid data and is cleared when it no longer contains any valid data. This bit can be polled when using programmed I/O to remove remaining data from the receive FIFO. This bit does not request an interrupt.
5.16.3.13 FIFO Operation Completed Flag (FIFO)
The FIFO Operation Completed (FIFO) Flag is set after the FIFO operation requested by writing to DAIDR2 as completed.
FIFO is automatically cleared when DAIDR2 is read or written. This bit does not request an interrupt.

Figure 13. Consecutive Memory Read Cycles with Minimum Wait States
NOTES: 1) tnCSRD = 50 ns at 36.864 MHz
70 ns at 18.432 MHz 120 ns at 13.0 MHz
Maximum values for minimum wait states. This time can be extended by integer multiples of the clock period (27 ns at 36 MHz, 54 ns at 18.432 MHz, and 77 ns at 1 MHz), by either driving EXPRDY low and/or by programming a number of wait states. EXPRDY is sampled on the falling edge of EXPCLK before the data transfer. If low at this point, the transfer is delayed by one clock period where EXPRDY is sampled again. EXPCLK need not be referenced when driving EXPRDY, but is shown for clarity.
2) Consecutive reads with sequential access enabled are identical except that the sequential access wait s tate field is used to determine the nu mber of wait states, and no idle cycles are inserted between successive non-sequential ROM/expansion cycles. This improves perfor­mance so the SQAEN bit should always be set where possible.
3) tnCSRD = tADRD = tPCSRD
4) When the EP72xx device implements consecutive reads(e.g., use of the LDM instruction), regardless of th e state of the SQAE N bit, the signals nMOE and nCS x will always rem ain low through the entire multi-read access. They will not toggle in-between each different address access. In order to have these signals toggle, single access read instructions (e.g., LDR) must be used.
