Pin Description
VCCand GND are the power supply pins.
CKI is the clock input. The clock can come from a crystal os-
cillator (in conjunction with CKO). See Oscillator Description
section.
RESET is the master resetinput. See Reset Description section.
The device contains seven bidirectional 8-bit I/O ports (C, E,
F, G, L, M, N) where each individual bit may be independently configured as an input (Schmitt trigger inputs on all
ports), output or TRI-STATE under program control. Three
data memory address locations are allocated for each of
these I/O ports. Each I/O port has two associated 8-bit
memory mapped registers, the CONFIGURATION register
and the output DATA register.A memory mapped address is
also reserved for the input pins of each I/O port. (See the
memory map for the various addresses associated with the
I/O ports.)
device. The DATA and CONFIGURATION registers allow for
each port bit to be individually configured under software
control as shown below:
Port L and M are 8-bit I/O ports, they support Multi-Input
Wake-up (MIWU) on all eight pins. All L-pins and M-pins
have Schmitt triggers on the inputs.
Port L and M only have one (1) interrupt vector.

L0 MIWU
Port G is an 8-bit port with 5 I/O pins (G0–G5), an input pin
(G6), and one dedicated output pin (G7). Pins G0–G6 all
have Schmitt Triggers on their inputs. G7 serves as the dedicated output pin for the CKO clock output. There are two registers associated with the G Port, a data register and a configuration register. Therefore, each of the 6 I/O bits (G0–G5)
can be individually configured under software control.
Since G6 is an input only pin and G7 is the dedicated CKO
clock output pin the associated bits in the data and configuration registers for G6 and G7 are used for special purpose
functions as outlined below. Reading the G6 and G7 data
bits will return zeroes.
Note that the chip will be placed in the HALTmode by wirting
a ’’1” to bit 7 of the Port G Data Register. Similarly the chip
will be placed in the IDLE mode by writing a “1” to bit 6 of the
Port G Data Register.

Port M is a bidirectional I/O, it may be configured in software
as Hi-Z input, weak pull-up, or push-pull output. These pins
may be used as general purpose input/output pins or for selected altlernate functions.
Port M pins have optional alternate functions. Each pin
(M0–M5) has been assigned an alternate data, configuration, or wakeup source. If the respective alternate function is
selected the content of the associated bits in the configuration and/or data register are ignored. If an alternate wakeup
source is selected the input level at the respective pin will be
ignored for the purpose of triggering a wakeup event, however it will still be possible to read that pin by accessing the
input register. The SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) block, for
example, uses four of the Port M pins to automatically reconfigure its MISO (Master Input, Slave Output), MOSI
(Master Output, Slave Input), SCK (Serial Clock) and SlaveSelect pins as inputs or outputs, depending on whether the
interface has been configured as a Master or Slave. When
the SPI interface is disabled those pins are available as general purpose I/O pins configurable by user software writing to
the associated data and configuration bits. The CAN interface on the device makes use of one of the Port M’s alternate wake-ups, to trigger a wakeup if such a condition has
been detected on the CAN’s dedicated receive pins.
Port M has the following alternate pin functions:
M7 Multi-input Wakeup or CAN
M6 Multi-input Wakeup
M5 Multi-input Wakeup or T2B
M4 Multi-input Wakeup or T2A
M3 Multi-input Wakeup or SS
M2 Multi-input Wakeup or SCK
M1 Multi-input Wakeup or MOSI
M0 Multi-input Wakeup or MISO
Ports C, E, F and N are general-purpose, bidirectional I/O
ports.
Any device package that has Port C, E, F,M, N but has fewer
than eight pins, contains unbonded, floating pads internally
on the chip. For these types of devices, the software should
writea1totheconfiguration register bits corresponding to
the non-existent port pins. This configures the port bits as
outputs, thereby reducing leakage current of the device.
Port N is an 8-bit wide port with alternate function capability
used for extending the slave select (SS) lines of the on SPI
interface. The SPI expander block provides mutually exclusive slave select extension signals (ESS0 to ESS7) according to the state of the SS line and specific contents of the SPI
shift register. These slave select extension lines can be
routed to the Port N I/O pins by enabling the alternate function of the port in the PORTNX register. If enabled, the internal signal on the ESSx line causes the ports state to change
exactly like a change to the PORTND register. It is the user’s
responsibility to switch the port to an output when enabling
the alternate function.
CAN pins: For the on-chip CAN interface this device has five
dedicated pins with the following features:
V
On-chip reference voltage with the value of VCC/2
REF
Rx0CAN receive data input pin.
Rx1CAN receive data input pin.
Tx0CAN transmit data output pin. This pin may be put in
the TRI-STATE mode with the TXEN0 bit in the CAN
Bus control register.
Tx1CAN transmit data output pin. This pin may be put in
the TRI-STATE mode with the TXEN1 bit in the CAN
Bus control register.
ALTERNATE PORT FUNCTIONS
Many general-purpose pins have alternate functions. The
software can program each pin to be used either for a
general-purpose or for a specific function.The chiphardware
determines which of the pins have alternate functions, and
what those functions are. This section lists the alternate
functions available on each of the pins.
Port D is an 8-bit output port that is preset high when RESET
goes low. The user can tie two or more port D outputs (except D2) together in order to get a higher drive.
Note: Care must be exercised with D2 pin operation. At RESET, the external
loads on this pin must ensure that the output voltages stay above 0.8
to prevent the chip from entering special modes.Also keep the ex-

ternal loading on D2 to
<
1000 pF.
Port I is an 8-bit Hi-Z input port, and also provides the analog
inputs to the A/D converter. If unterminated, Port I pins will
draw power only when addressed.
Functional Description
The architecture of the device utilizes a modified Harvard architecture. With the Harvard architecture, the control store
program memory (ROM) is separated from the data store
memory (RAM). Both ROM and RAM have their own separate addressing space with separate address buses. The architecture, though based on Harvard architecture, permits
transfer of data from ROM to RAM.

Functional Description (Continued)
CPU REGISTERS
The CPU can do an 8-bit addition, subtraction, logical or shift
operation in one instruction (t
There are five CPU registers:
A is the 8-bit Accumulator Register
PC is the 15-bit Program Counter Register
PU is the upper 7 bits of the program counter (PC)
PL is the lower 8 bits of the program counter (PC)
B is an 8-bit RAM address pointer, which can be optionally
post auto incremented or decremented.
X is an 8-bit alternate RAM address pointer, which can be
optionally post auto incremented or decremented.
SP is the 8-bit stack pointer, which points to the subroutine/
interrupt stack (in RAM). The SP is initialized to RAM address 02F with reset.
All the CPU registers are memory mapped with the exception of the Accumulator (A) and the Program Counter (PC).
PROGRAM MEMORY
Program memory for the device consists of 8 kbytes of ROM.
These bytes may hold program instructions or constant data
(data tables for the LAID instruction, jump vectors for the JID
instruction and interrupt vectors for the VIS instruction). The
program memory is addressed by the 15-bit program
counter (PC). All interrupts in the device vector to program
memory location 0FF Hex.
DATA MEMORY
The data memory address space includes the on-chip RAM
and data registers, theI/O registers (Configuration, Data and
Pin), the control registers, the MICROWIRE/PLUS SIO shift
register, and the various registers, and counters associated
with the timers (with the exception of the IDLE timer). Data
memory is addressed directly by the instruction or indirectly
by the B, X and SP pointers.
The device has 192 bytes of RAM. Sixteen bytes of RAM are
mapped as “registers” at addresses 0F0 to 0FF Hex. These
registers can be loaded immediately, and also decremented
and tested with the DRSZ (decrement register and skip if
zero) instruction. The memory pointer registers X, SP,and B
are memory mapped into this space at address locations
0FC to 0FE Hex respectively, with the other registers (other
than reserved register 0FF) being available for general usage.
The instruction set permits any bit in memory to be set, reset
or tested. All I/O and registers (except A and PC) are
memory mapped; therefore I/O bits and register bits can be
directly and individually set, reset and tested. The accumulator (A) bits can also be directly and individually tested.
Note: RAM contents are undefined upon power-up.
RESET
The RESET input when pulled low initializes the microcontroller. Initialization will occur whenever the RESET input is
pulled low. Upon initialization, the data and configuration
registers for Ports L and G, are cleared, resulting in these
Ports being initialized to the TRI-STATE mode. Port D is initialized high with RESET. The PC, CNTRL, and INCTRL
control registers are cleared. The Multi-Input Wakeup registers WKEN, WKEDG, and WKPND are cleared. The Stack
Pointer, SP, is initialized to 06F Hex.

bits to “1”. After that, the device will not start transmission or reception of a frame util eleven consecutive “recessive” (undriven) bits have been received.
This is done to ensure that the output drivers are not

The RESET signal goes directly to the
HALT latch to restart a halted chip.
When using external reset, the external RC network shown
in
Figure 6
should be used to ensure that the RESET pin is
held low until the power supply to the chip stabilizes. Under
no circumstances should the RESET pin be allowed to float.

Timers
The device contains a very versatile set of timers (T0, T1 and
T2). All timers and associated autoreload/capture registers
power up containing random data.
TIMER T0 (IDLE TIMER)
The device supports applications that require maintaining
real time and low power with the IDLE mode. This IDLE
mode support is furnished by the IDLE timer T0, which is a
16-bit timer. The Timer T0 runs continuously at the fixed rate
of the instruction cycle clock, t
write to the IDLE Timer T0, which is a count down timer.
The Timer T0 supports the following functions:
Exit out of the Idle Mode (See Idle Mode description)
•
WATCHDOG logic (See WATCHDOG description)
•
Start up delay out of the HALT mode
•
Figure 8
is a functional block diagram showing the structure
of the IDLE Timer and its associated interrupt logic.
Bits 11 through 15 of the ITMR register can be selected for
triggering the IDLE Timer interrupt. Each time the selected
bit underflows (every 4k, 8k, 16k, 32k or 64k instruction
cycles), the IDLE Timer interrupt pending bit T0PND is set,
thus generating an interrupt (if enabled), and bit 6 of the Port
G data register is reset, thus causing an exit from the IDLE
mode if the device is in that mode.

In order for an interrupt to be generated, the IDLE Timer interrupt enable bit T0EN must be set, and the GIE (Global Interrupt Enable) bit must also be set. The T0PND flag and
T0EN bit are bits 5 and 4 of the ICNTRL register, respectively.The interrupt can be used for any purpose. Typically,it
is used to perform a task upon exit from the IDLE mode. For
more information on the IDLE mode, refer to the Power Save
Modes section.

The ITMR register is cleared on Reset and the Idle Timer period is reset to 4,096 instruction cycles.
Any time the IDLE Timer period is changed there is the possibility of generating a spurious IDLE Timer interrupt by setting the T0PND bit. The user is advised to disable IDLE
Timer interrupts prior to changing the value of the ITSEL bits
of the ITMR Register and then clear theT0PND bit before attempting to synchronize operation to the IDLE Timer.
TIMER T1 and TIMER T2
The device has a set of three powerful timer/counter blocks,
T1 and T2. The associated features and functioning of a
timer block are described by referring to the timer block Tx.
Since the three timer blocks, T1 and T2 are identical, all
comments are equally applicable to either of the three timer
blocks.
Each timer block consists of a 16-bit timer, Tx, and two supporting 16-bit autoreload/capture registers, RxA and RxB.
Each timer block has two pins associated with it, TxA and
www.national.com15
Page 16
Timers (Continued)
TxB. The pin TxA supports I/O required by the timer block,
while the pin TxB is an input to the timer block. The powerful
and flexible timer block allows the device to easily perform all
timer functions with minimal software overhead. The timer
block has three operating modes: Processor Independent
PWM mode, External Event Counter mode, and Input Capture mode.
The control bits TxC3,TxC2, and TxC1 allow selection of the
different modes of operation.
Mode 1. Processor Independent PWM Mode
As the name suggests, this mode allows the device to generate a PWM signal with very minimal user intervention.
The user only has to define the parameters of the PWM signal (ON time and OFF time).Once begun, the timer block will
continuously generate the PWM signal completely independent of the microcontroller. The user software services the
timer block only when the PWM parameters require updating.
In this mode the timer Tx counts down at a fixed rate of t
Upon every underflow the timer is alternately reloaded with
the contents of supporting registers, RxA and RxB. The very
first underflow of the timer causes the timer to reload from
the register RxA. Subsequent underflows cause the timer to
be reloaded from the registers alternately beginning with the
register RxB.
The Tx Timer control bits, TxC3, TxC2 and TxC1 set up the
timer for PWM mode operation.

shows a block diagram of the timer in PWM mode.
per PWM period on either the rising or falling edge of the
PWM output. Alternatively, the user may choose to interrupt
on both edges of the PWM output.
Mode 2. External Event Counter Mode
This mode is quite similar to the processor independent
PWM mode described above. The main difference is that the
timer,Tx, is clocked by the input signal from theTxA pin. The
Tx timer control bits, TxC3, TxC2 andTxC1 allow the timer to
be clocked either on a positive or negative edge from the
TxA pin. Underflows from the timer are latched into the TxPNDA pending flag. Setting the TxENA control flag will cause
an interrupt when the timer underflows.
In this mode the input pin TxB can be used as an independent positive edge sensitive interrupt input if the TxENB control flag is set. The occurrence of the positive edge on the
TxB input pin is latched to the TxPNDB flag.
Figure 10
shows a block diagram of the timer in External
Event Counter mode.

FIGURE 9. Timer in PWM Mode
The underflows can be programmed to toggle the TxAoutput
pin. The underflows can also be programmed to generate interrupts.
Underflows from the timer are alternately latched into two
pending flags, TxPNDA and TxPNDB. The user must reset
these pending flags under software control. Two control enable flags, TxENA and TxENB, allow the interrupts from the
timer underflow to be enabled or disabled. Setting the timer
enable flag TxENA will cause an interrupt when a timer underflow causes the RxA register to be reloadedinto the timer.
Setting the timer enable flag TxENB will cause an interrupt
when a timer underflow causes the RxB register to be reloaded into the timer. Resetting the timer enable flags will
disable the associated interrupts.
Either or both of the timer underflow interrupts may be enabled. This gives the user the flexibility of interrupting once
Note: The PWM output is not available in this mode since the TxA pin is
being used as the counter input clock.
DS012837-11
FIGURE 10. Timer in External Event Counter Mode
Mode 3. Input Capture Mode
The device can precisely measure external frequencies or
time external events by placing the timer block, Tx, in the input capture mode.
In this mode, the timer Tx is constantly running at the fixed t
rate. The two registers, RxA and RxB, act as capture registers. Each register acts inconjunction with a pin. The register
RxAacts in conjunction with the TxApin and the register RxB
acts in conjunction with the TxB pin.
The timer value gets copied over into the register when a
trigger event occurs on its corresponding pin. Control bits,
TxC3, TxC2 and TxC1, allow the trigger events to be specified either as a positive or a negative edge. The trigger condition for each input pin can be specified independently.
The trigger conditions can also be programmed to generate
interrupts. The occurrence of the specified trigger condition
on the TxA and TxB pins will be respectively latched into the
pending flags, TxPNDA and TxPNDB. The control flag
TxENA allows the interrupt on TxA to be either enabled or
disabled. Setting the TxENA flag enables interrupts to be
generated when the selected trigger condition occurs on the
TxA pin. Similarly, the flag TxENB controls the interrupts
from the TxB pin.
Underflows from the timer can also be programmed to generate interrupts. Underflows are latched into the timer TxC0
pending flag (the TxC0 control bit serves as the timer underflow interrupt pending flag in the Input Capture mode). Con-

sequently, the TxC0 control bit should be reset when entering the Input Capture mode. The timer underflow interrupt is
enabled with the TxENA control flag. When a TxA interrupt
occurs in the Input Capture mode, the user must check both
whether a TxA input capture or a timer underflow (or both)
caused the interrupt.

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

The device supports two different ways of exiting the HALT
mode. The first method of exiting the HALTmode is with the
Multi-Input Wakeup feature on the L & M port. The second
method of exiting the HALT mode is by pulling the RESET
pin low.
Since a crystal or ceramic resonator may be selected as the
oscillator, the Wakeup signal is not allowed to start the chip

running immediately since crystal oscillators and ceramic
resonators have a delayed start up time to reach full amplitude and frequency stability. The IDLE timer is used to generate a fixed delay to ensure that the oscillator has indeed
stabilized before allowing instruction execution. In this case,
upon detecting a valid Wakeup signal, only the oscillator circuitry is enabled. The IDLE timer is loaded with a value of

clock is derived by dividing theoscillator clock down by a factor of 10. The Schmitt trigger following the CKI inverter on
the chip ensures that the IDLEtimer is clocked only when the
oscillator has a sufficiently large amplitude to meet the
Schmitt trigger specifications. This Schmitt trigger is not part
of the oscillator closed loop. The start-up time-out from the
IDLE timer enables the clock signals to be routed to the rest
of the chip.
The device has two mask options associated with the HALT
mode. The first mask option enablesthe HALTmode feature,
while the second mask option disables the HALTmode. With
the HALT mode enable mask option, the device will enter
and exit the HALT mode as described above. With the HALT
disable mask option, the device cannot be placed in the
HALTmode (writing a “1” to the HALT flag will have to effect).
IDLE MODE
The device is placed in the IDLE mode by writing a “1” to the
IDLE flag (G6 data bit). In this mode, all activity, except the
associated on-board oscillator circuitry, ad the IDLE Timer
T0, is stopped. The power supply requirements of the microcontroller in this mode of operation are typically around 30
of normal power requirement of the microcontroller.
As with the HALT mode, the device can be returned to normal operation with areset, or with a Multi-Input Wakeup from
the Port L or CAN Interface. Alternately, the microcontroller
resumes normal operation from the IDLE mode when the
thirteenth bit (representing 4.096 ms at internal clock frequency of 1 MHz, t

This toggle condition of the thirteenth bit of the IDLE Timer
T0 is latched into the T0PND pending flag.
The user has the option of being interrupted with a transition
on the thirteenth bit of the IDLE Timer T0. The interrupt can
be enabled or disabled via the T0EN control bit. Setting the
T0EN flag enables the interrupt and vice versa.
The user can enter the IDLE mode with the Timer T0 interrupt enabled. In this case, when the T0PND bit gets set, the
device will first execute the Timer T0 interrupt service routine
and then return to the instruciton following the “Enter Idle
Mode” instruction.
Alternatively, the user can enter the IDLE mode with the
IDLE Timer T0 interrupt disabled. In this case, the device will
resume normal operation with the instruction immediately
following the “Enter IDLE Mode” instruction.
Note: It is necessary to program two NOP instructions following both the set
HALT mode and set IDLE mode instructions. These NOP instructions
are necessary to allow clock resynchronization following the HALT or
IDLE modes.

Multi-Input Wakeup
The Multi-Input Wakeup feature is used to return (wakeup)
c
the device from either the HALT or IDLE modes. Alternately,
the Multi-Input Wakeup/Interrupt feature may also be used to
generate up to 7 edge selectable external interrupts.
Note: The following description is for both the Port L and the M port. When
the document refers to the registers WKEGD, WKEN or WKPND, the
user will have to put either M (for M port) or L (for port) in front of the
register, i.e., LWKEN (Port L WKEN), MWKEN (Port M WKEN).
Figures 12, 13
microcontroller.The Multi-Input Wakeupfeature utilizes the L
Port. The user selects which particular Port L bit (or combination of Port L bits) will cause the device to exit the HALT or
IDLE modes. The selection is done through the Reg: WKEN.
The Reg: WKEN is an 8-bit read/write register, which contains a control bit for every Port L bit. Setting a particular
WKEN bit enables a Wakeupfrom the associated Port L pin.
The user can select whether the trigger condition on the selected Port L pin is going to be either a positive edge (low to
high transition) or a negative edge (high to low transition).
This selection is made via the Reg: WKEDG, which is an
8-bit control register with a bit assigned to each Port L pin.
Setting the control bit will select the trigger condition to be a
%
negative edge on that particular Port L pin. Resetting the bit
selects the trigger condition to be a positive edge. Changing
an edge select entails several steps in order to avoid a
pseudo Wakeup condition as a result of the edge change.
First, the associated WKEN bit should be reset, followed by
the edge select change in WKEDG. Next, the associated
WKPND bit should be cleared, followed by the associated
WKEN bit being re-enabled.
An example may serve to clarify this procedure. Suppose we
wish to change the edge select from positive (low going high)
to negative (high going low) for Port L bit 5, where bit 5 has
previously been enabled for an input interrupt. The program
would be as follows:
If the Port L bits have been used as outputs and then
changed to inputs with Multi-InputWakeup/Interrupt, a safety
procedure should also be followed to avoid inherited pseudo
wakeup conditions. After the selected Port L bits have been
changed from output to input but before the associated
WKEN bits are enabled, the associated edge select bits in
WKEDG should be set or reset for the desired edge selects,
followed by the assoicated WKPND bits being cleared.

Page 20
Multi-Input Wakeup (Continued)
FIGURE 12. Port M Multi-Input Wake-up Logic
This same procedure should be used following reset, since
the Port L inputs are left floating as a result of reset. The occurrence of the selected trigger condition for Multi-Input
Wakeup is latched to a pending register called WKPND. The
respective bits of the WKPND register will be set on the occurrence of the selected trigger edge on the corresponding
Port L and Port M pin. The user has the responsibility of
clearing these pending flags. Since WKPND is a pending
register for the occurrence of selected wakeup conditions,
the device will not enter the HALT mode if any wakeup bit is
both enabled and pending. Consequently, the user has the
responsibility of clearing the pending flags before attempting
to enter the HALT mode.
The WKEN, WKPND and WKEDG are all read/write registers, and are cleared at reset.
PORTS L AND PORT M INTERRUPTS
Ports L and M provides the user with additional fifteen fully
selectable, edge sensitive interrupts which are all vectored
into the same service subroutine.
The interrupt from Ports L and M shares logic with the wake
up circuitry. The register WKEN allows interrupts from Port L
to be individually enabled or disabled. The registers LWKEN
and MWKEN specifies the trigger condition to be either a
positive or a negative edge. Finally, the registers LWKEN
and MWKEN latches in the pending trigger conditions.
The GIE (global interrupt enable) bit enables the interrupt
function. A control flag, LPEN, functions as a global interrupt
enable for Port Linterrupts. Setting the LPEN flag will enable
DS012837-13
interrupts and vice versa. A separate global pending flag is
not needed since the registers LWKEN and MWKEN are adequate.
Since Ports L and M are also used for waking the device out
of the HALT or IDLE modes, the user can elect to exit the
HALT or IDLE modes either with or without the interrupt enabled. If he elects todisable the interrupt, then thedevice will
restart execution from the instruction immediately following
the instruction that placed the microcontroller in the HALT or
IDLE modes. In the other case, the device will first execute
the interrupt service routine and then revert to normal operation.
The Wakeup signal will not start the chip running immediately since crystal oscillators orceramic resonators have a finite start up time. The IDLE Timer (T0) generates a fixed delay to ensure that the oscillator has indeed stabilized before
allowing the device to execute instructions. In this case,
upon detecting a valid Wakeup signal, only the oscillator circuitry and the IDLE Timer T0 are enabled.The IDLE Timer is

FIGURE 13. Port L Multi-Input Wake-Up Logic
PORT M INTERRUPTS
Port M provides the user with seven fully selectable, edge
sensitive interrupts which are all vectored into the same service subroutine.
The interrupt from Port M shares logic with the wake up circuitry.The MWKEN register allows interrupts from Port M to
be individually enabled or disabled. The MWKEDG register
specifies the trigger condition to be either a positive or a
negative edge. The MWKPND register latches in the pending trigger conditions.
The LPEN control flag in the ICNTRL register functions as a
global interrupt enable for Port M interrupts. Setting the
LPEN flag enables interrupts. Note that the GIE bit in the
PSW register must also be set to enable these Port L interrupts.A global pending flag is not needed since each pin has
a corresponding pending flag in the MWKPND register.
Since Port M is also used for exiting the device from the
HALT or IDLE mode, the user can elect to exit the HALT or
IDLE mode either with or without the interrupt enabled. If the
user elects to disable the interrupt, then the device restarts
execution from the point at which it was stopped (first instruction cycle of the instruction following the enter HALT or
IDLE mode instruction). In theother case, the device finishes
the instruction which was being executed when the part was
stopped (the NOP(Note 26) instruction following the enter
HALT or IDLE mode instruction), and then branches to the
interrupt service routine. The device then reverts to normal
operation.
Note 26: Theuser must place two NOPs after an enter HALT or IDLE mode
instruction.
To prevent erroneous clearing of the SPI receive FIFO when
entering HALT/IDLE mode, the user needs to enable the
MIWU on port M3. (SS) by setting bit 3 in the MWKEN register.
DS012837-14
CAN RECEIVE WAKEUP
The CAN Receive Wakeup source can be enabled or disabled. There is no specific enable bit for the CAN Wakeup
feature. Although the wakeup feature on pins L0..17 and
M0..M7 can be programmed to generate an interrupt (Port L
or Port M interrupt), nointerrupt is generated upon aCAN receive wakeup condition. The CAN block has it’s own, dedicated receiver interrupt upon receive buffer full (see CAN
Section).
CAN Wake-Up:
The CAN interface can be programmed to wake the device
from HALT/IDLE mode. This is done by setting bit 7 in the
Port M wake-up enable register (MWKEN). A transition on
the bus will cause the bit 7 of the Port M wake-up pending
(MWKPND) to be set and thereby waking up the device. The
frame on the CAN bus will be lost. The MWEDG (m port
wake-up edge) register bit 7 can be programmed high or low
(high will wake-up on the first falling edge on Rx0).
Resetting bit 7 in the MWKEN will disable the CAN wake-up.
The following sequence should be executed before entering
HALT/IDLE mode:
RBIT 7, MWKPND ;clear CAN wake-up pending
LDA, CBUS
AND A, #0CF;resetTxEN0 and TxEN1
XA, CBUS;disable main receive
;comparator
After the device wake-up, the CBUS bits TxEN0 and/or
TxEN1 need be set to allow synchronization on the bus and
to enable transmission/reception of CAN frames.
CAN Block Description *
This device contains a CAN serial bus interface as described
in the CAN Specification Rev. 2.0 part B.
*Patents Pending.

Page 22
CAN Interface Block
This device supports applications which require a low speed
CAN interface. It is designed to be programmed with two
transmit and two receive registers. The user’s program may
check the status bytes in order to get information of the bus
state and the received or transmitted messages. The device
has the capability to generate an interrupt as soon as one
byte has been transmitted or received. Care must be taken if
more than two bytes in a message frame are to be
transmitted/received. In this case the user’s program must
poll the transmit buffer empty (TBE)/receive buffer full (RBF)
bits or enable their respective interrupts and perform a data
exchange between the user data and the Tx/Rx registers.
Fully automatic transmission on error is supported for messages not longer than two bytes. Messages which are longer
than two bytes have to be processed by software.
The interface is compatible with CAN Specification 2.0 part
B, without the capability to receive/transmit extended
frames. Extended frames on the bus are checked and acknowledged according to the CAN specification.
The maximum bus speed achievable with the CAN interface
is a function of crystal frequency, message length and software overhead. The device can support a bus speed of up to
1 Mbit/s with a 10 MHz oscillator and 2 byte messages. The
1 Mbit/s bus speed refers to the rate at which protocol and
data bits are transferred on the bus. Longer messages require slower bus speeds due to the time required for software intervention between data bytes. The device will support a maximum of 125k bit/s with eight byte messages and
a 10 MHz oscillator.

Functional Block Description of
the CAN Interface
Interface Management Logic (IML)
The IML executes the CPU’s transmission and reception
commands and controls the data transfer between CPU,
Rx/Tx and CAN registers. It provides the CAN Interface with
Rx/Tx data from the memory mapped Register Block. It also
sets and resets the CAN status information and generates
interrupts to the CPU.
Bit Stream Processor (BSP)
The BSP is a sequencer controlling the data stream between
The Interface Management Logic (parallel data) and the bus
line (serial data). It controls the transceive logic with regard
to reception and arbitration, and creates error signals according to the bus specification.
Transceive Logic (TCL)
The TCL is a state machine which incorporates the bit stuff
logic and controls the output drivers, CRC logic and the
Rx/Tx shift registers. It also controls the synchronization to
the bus with the CAN clock signal generated by the BTL.
Error Management Logic (EML)
The EML is responsible for the fault confinement of the CAN
protocol. It is also responsible for changing the error
counters, setting the appropriate error flag bits and interrupts
and changing the error status (passive, active and bus off).
Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)
Generator and Register
The CRC Generator consists of a 15-bit shift register and the
logic required to generate the checksum of the destuffed bitstream. It informs the EML about the result of a receiver
checksum.
The checksum is generated by the polynomial:
Receive/Transmit (Rx/Tx) Registers
The Rx/Tx registers are 8-bit shift registers controlled by the
TCL and the BSP. They are loaded or read by the Interface
Management Logic, which holds the data to be transmitted
or the data that was received.

Bit Time Logic (BTL)
The bit time logic divider divides the CKI input clock by the
value defined in the CAN prescaler (CSCAL) and bus timing
register (CTIM). The resultig bit time (tcan) can be computed
by the formula:
Where
divider
is the value of the clock prescaler,PSis the
programmable value of phase segment 1 and 2 (1..8) and
PPS
the programmed value of the propagation segment
(1..8) (located in CTIM).
Bus Timing Considerations
The internal architecture of the CAN interface has been optimized to allow fast software response times within messages of more than two data bytes. The TBE (Transmit
Buffer Empty) bit is set on the last bit of odd data bytes when
CAN internal sample points are high.
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the time between
setting TBE and a reload of TxD2 is longer than the length of
phase segment 2 as indicated in the following equation:
Table 3
shows examples of the minimum required t
different CSCAL settings based on a clock frequency of
LOAD
for
10 MHz. Lower clock speeds require recalculation of the
CAN bit rate and the mimimum t
Interrupt driven programs use more time than programs
which poll the TBE flag, however programs which operate at
lower baud rates (which are more likely to be sensitive to this
issue) have more time for interrupt response.
Output Drivers/Input Comparators
The output drivers/input comparators are the physical interface to the bus. Control bits are provided to TRI-STATE the
output drivers.
A dominant bit on the bus is represented as a “0” in the data
registers and a recessive bit on the bus is represented as a
“1” in the data registers.

Note: The contents of the receiver related registers RxD1, RxD2, RDLC,
RIDH and RTSTAT are only changed if a received frame passes the
acceptance filter or the Receive Identifier Acceptance Filter bit (RIAF)
is set to accept all received messages.
TRANSMIT DATA REGISTER 1 (TXD1)(Address X’00A0)
The Transmit Data Register 1 contains the first data byte to
be transmitted within a frame and then the successive odd
byte numbers (i.e., bytes number 1,3,..,7).
TRANSMIT DATA REGISTER 2 (TXD2)(Address X’00A1)
The Transit Data Register 2 contains the second data byte to
be transmitted within a frame and then the successive even
byte numbers (i.e., bytes number 2,4,..,8).

Filter (RIAF) bit (see CBUS register) is set to zero, bits 4 to
10 of the received identifier are compared with the mask bits
of RID4..RID10. If the corresponding bits match, the message is accepted. If the RIAF bit is set to a one, the filter

Note: (BTL settings at high speed; PSC = 0) Due to the on-chip delay from

If the RIAF bit is set to zero, bits 4 to 10 of the received iden-

the corresponding bits match, the message is accepted. If
the RIAF bit is set to a one, the filter function is disabled and
all messages independent of the identifier will be accepted.
Bus synchronization of the device is done in the following
way:
If the output was disabled (TxEN1, TxEN0 = “0”) and either
TxEN1 or TxEN0, or both are setto 1, the device will not start
transmission or reception of a frame until eleven consecutive
“recessive” bits have been received. Resetting the TxEN1
and TxEN0 bits will disable the output drivers and the CAN
input comparator. All other CAN related registers and flags
will be unaffected. It is recommended that the user reset the
TxEN1 and TxEN0 bits before switching the device into the

to reduce current consumption and to assure a proper resychronization to the bus after exiting the HALT mode.

the device goes from “bus off” to “error active” after monitoring 128*11recessive bits (includingbus idle) on the bus. This
mode has been implemented for compatibility with existing
solutions. Setting the FMOD bit to “1” will select the Enhanced Fault Confinement mode. In this mode the device
goes from “bus off” to “error active” after monitoring 128
“good” messages, as indicated by the reception of 11 consecutive “recessive” bits including the End of Frame,

TERR Transmit Error
This bit is automatically set when an error occurs during the
transmission of a frame. TERR can be programmed to generate an interrupt by setting the Can Error Interrupt Enable
bit (CEIE). This bit must be cleared by the user’s software.
Note: This is used for messages for more than two bytes. If an error occurs
during the transmission of a frame with more than 2 data bytes, the user’s software has to handle the correct reloading of the data bytes to
the TxD registers for retransmission of the frame. For frames with 2 or
fewer data bytes the interface logic of this chip does an automatic retransmission. Regardless of the number of data bytes, the user’s software must reset this bit if CEIE is enabled. Otherwise a new interrupt
will be generated immediately after return from the interrupt service
routine.
RERR Receiver Error
This bit is automatically set when an error occurred during
the reception of a frame. RERR can be programmed to generate an interrupt by setting the Can Error Interrupt Enable
bit (CEIE). This bit has to be cleared by the user’s software.
CEIE CAN Error Interrupt Enable
If set by the user’s software, this bit enables the transmit and
receive error interrupts. The interrupt pending flags are
TERR and RERR. Resetting this bit with a pending error interrupt will inhibit the interrupt, but will not clear the cause of
the interrupt (RERR or TERR). If the bit is then set without
clearing the cause of the interrupt, the interrupt will reoccur.
(Continued)
TIE Transmit Interrupt Enable
If set by the user’s software, this bit enables the transmit in-
terrupt. (See TBE and TXPND.) Resetting this bit with a
pending transmit interrupt will inhibit the interrupt, but will not
clear the cause of the interrupt. If the bit is then set without
clearing the cause of the interrupt, the interrupt will reoccur.
RIE Receive Interrupt Enable
If set by the user’s software, this bit enables the receive in-
terrupt or a remote transmission request interrupt (see RBF,
RFV and RRTR). Resetting this bit with a pending receive interrupt will inhibit the interrupt, but will not clear the cause of
the interrupt. If the bit is then set without clearing the cause
of the interrupt, the interrupt will reoccur.
TXSS Transmission Start/Stop
This bit is set by the user’s software to initiate the transmis-
sion of a frame. Once this bit is set, a transmission is pending, as indicated by the TXPND flag being set.It can be reset
by software to cancel a pending transmission. Resetting the
TXSS bit will only cancel a transmission, if the transmission
of a frame hasn’t been started yet (bus idle), if arbitration has
been lost (receiving) or if an error occurs during transmission. If the device has already started transmission (won arbitration) the TXPND and TXSS flags will stay set until the
transmission is completed, even if the user’s software has
written zero to the TXSS bit. If one or more data bytes are to
be transmitted, care must be taken by the user, that the
Transmit Data Register(s) have been loaded before the
TXSS bit is set. TXSS will be cleared on three conditions
only: Successful completion of a transmitted message; successful cancellation of a pending transmision; Transition of
the CAN interface to the bus-off state.
DS012837-52
FIGURE 17. Acceptance Filter Block-Diagram
Writing a zero to the TXSS bit will request cancellation of a
pending transmission but TXSS will not be cleared until
completion of the operation. If an error occurs during transmission of a frame, the logic will check for cancellation requests prior to restarting transmission. If zero has been written to TXSS, retransmission will be canceled.

TBE Transmit Buffer Empty
This bit is set as soon as the TxD2 register is copied into the
Rx/Tx shift register, i.e., the 1st data byte of each pair has
been transmitted. The TBE bit is automatically reset if the
TxD2 register is written (the user should write a dummy byte
to the TxD2 register when transmitting an odd number of
bytes of zero bytes). TBE can be programmed to generate

an interrupt by setting the TransmitInterrupt Enable bit (TIE).
When servicing the interrupt the user has to make sure that
TBE gets cleared by executing a WRITE instruction on the
TxD2 register, otherwise a new interrupt will be generated
immediately after return from the interrupt service routine.
The TBE bit is read only. It is set to 1 upon reset. TBE is also
set upon completion of transmission of a valid message.
TXPND Transmission Pending
This bit is set as soon as the Transmit Start/Stop (TXSS) bit
is set by the user. It will stay set until the frame was successfully transmitted, until the transmission wassuccessfully canceled by writing zero to the Transmission Start/Stop bit
(TXSS), or the device enters the bus-off state. Resetting the
TXSS bit will only cancel a transmission if the transmission
of a frame hasn’t been started yet (bus idle) or if arbitration
has been lost (receiving). If the device has already started
transmission (won arbitration) the TXPND flag will stay set
until the transmission is completed, even if the user’s software has requested cancellation of the message. If an error
occurs during transmission, a requested cancellation may
occur prior to the begining of retransmission.
RRTR Received Remote Transmission Request
This bit is set when the remote transmission request (RTR)
bit in a received frame was set. It is automatically reset
through a read of the RXD1 register.
To detect RRTR the user can either poll this flag or enable
the receive interrupt (the reception of a remote transmission
request will also cause an interrupt if the receive interrupt is
enabled). If the receive interrupt is enabled, the user should
check the RRTR flag in the service routine in order to distinguish between a RRTR interrupt anda RBF interrupt. It is the
responsibility of the user to clearthis bit by reading the RXD1
register, before the next frame is received.
ROLD Received Overload Frame
This bit is automatically set when an Overload Frame was
received on the bus. It is automatically reset through a read
of the Receive/Transmit Status register. It is the responsibility of the user to clear this bit by reading the Receive/
Transmit Status register, before the next frame is received.
RORN Receiver Overrun
This bit is automatically set on an overrun of the receive data
register, i.e., if the user’s program does not maintain the
RxDn registers when receiving a frame. It it automatically reset through a read of the Receive/Transmit Status register.It
is the responsibility of the user to clear this bit by reading the
Receive/Transmit Status register before the next frame is received.
RFV Received Frame Valid
This bit is set if the received frame is valid, i.e., after the pen-
ultimate bit of the End of Frame is received. It is automatically reset through a read of the Receive/Transmit Status
register. It is the responsibility of the user to clear this bit by
reading the receive/transmit status register (RTSTAT), before the next frame is received. RFV will cause a Receive Interrupt if enabled by RIE. The user should be careful to read
the last data byte (RxD1) of odd length messages (1, 3, 5 or
7 data bytes) on receipt of RFV. RFV is the only indication
that the last byte of the message has been received.
RCV Receive Mode
This bit is set after the data length code of a message that
passes the device’s acceptance filter has been received. It is
(Continued)
automatically reset after the CRC-delimiter of the same
frame has been received. It indicates to the user’s software
that arbitration is lost andthat data is coming in for thatnode.
RBF Receive Buffer Full
This bit is set if the second Rx data byte was received. It is
reset automatically, after the RxD1-Register has been read
by the software. RBF can be programmed to generate an interrupt by setting the Receive Interrupt Enable bit (RIE).
When servicing the interrupt, the user has to make sure that
RBF gets cleared by executing a LD instruction from the
RxD1 register, otherwise a new interrupt will be generated
immediately after return from the interrupt service routine.
The RBF bit is read only.
TRANSMIT ERROR COUNTER (TEC) (Address X’00AD)
TEC7 TEC6 TEC5 TEC4 TEC3 TEC2 TEC1 TEC0
Bit 7Bit 0
This register is read/write.
For test purposes and to identify the node status, the trans-
mit error counter, an 8-bit error counter, is mapped into the
data memory. If the lower seven bits of the counter overflow,
i.e., TEC7 is set, the device is error passive.
CAUTION
To prevent interference with the CAN fault confinement, the
user must not write to the REC/TEC registers. Both counters
are automatically updated following the CAN specification.
RECEIVE ERROR COUNTER (REC) (00AE)
ROVL REC6 REC5 REC4 REC3 REC2 REC1 REC0
Bit 7Bit 0
This register is read/write.
ROVL receive error counter overflow
For test purposes and to identify the node status the receive
error counter, a 7-bit error counter, is mapped into the data
memory. If the counter overflows the ROVL bit is set to indicate that the device is error passive and won’t transmit any
active error frames. If ROVL is set then the counter is frozen.
MESSAGE IDENTIFICATION
a. Transmitted Message
The user can select all 11Transmit Identifier Bits to transmit
any message whigh fulfills the CAN2.0, part B spec without
an extended identifier (see note below). Fully automatic retransmission is supported for messages no longer than 2
bytes.
b. Received Messages
The lower four bits of the Receive Identifier are don’t care,
i.e., the controller will receive allmessages that fit in that window (16 messages). The upper 7 bits can be defined by the
user in the Receive Identifier High Register to mask out
groups of messages. If the RIAF bit is set, all messages will
be received.
Note: The CAN interface tolerates the extended CAN frame format of 29
identifier bits and gives an acknowledgment. If an error occurs the receive error counter will be increased, and decreased if the frame is
valid.
BUS SYNCHRONIZATION DURING OPERATION
Resetting the TxEN1 and TxEN0 bits in Bus Control Register
will disable the output drivers and do a resynchronization to
the bus. All other CAN related registers and flags will be unaffected.
www.national.com27
Page 28
Functional Block Description of
the CAN Interface
Bus synchronization of the device is this case is done in the
following way:
If the output was disabled (TxEN1, TxEN0 = “0”) and either
TxEN1 or TxEN0, or both are setto 1, the device will not start
transmission or reception of a frame until eleven consecutive
“recessive” bits have been received.
A “bus off” condition will also cause the output drivers Tx1
and Tx0 to be at TRI-STATE (independent of the status of
TxEN1 and TxEN0). The device will switch from “bus off” to
“error active” mode as described under the FMOD-bit description (see Can BusControl register). This will ensure that
the device is synchronized to the bus, before starting to
transmit or receive.

section.

Basic CAN Concepts
The following paragraphs provide a generic overview of the
basic concepts of the Controller Area Network (CAN) as described in
lated issues of the National Semiconductor device will be
discussed as well.
This device will process standard frame format only. Extended frame formats will be acknowledged, however the
data will be discarded. For this reason the description of
frame formats in the following section will cover only the
standard frame format.
The following section provides some more detail on how the
device will handle received extended frames:
If the device’s remote identifier acceptance filter bit (RIAF) is
set to “1”, extended frame messages will be acknowledged.
However, the data will be discarded and the device will not
reply to a remote transmission request received in extended
frame format. If the device’s RIAF bit is set to “0”, the upper
7 received ID bits of an extended frame that match the device’s receive identifier (RID) acceptance filtler bits, are
stroed in the device’s RIDregister. However, the device does
not reply to an RTR and any data is discarded. The device
will only acknowledge the message.

REMOTE DATA REQUEST
A CAN master module has the ability to set a specific bit
called the “remote transmission request bit” (RTR) in a
frame. This causes another module, either another master or
a slave, to transmit a data frame after the current frame has
been completed.
SYSTEM FLEXIBILITY
Additional modules can be added to an existing network
without a configuration change. These modules can either
perform completely new functions requiring new data or process existing data to perform a new function.
SYSTEM WIDE DATA CONSISTENCY
As the CAN network is message oriented, a message can be
used like a variable which is automatically updated by the
controlling processor. If any module cannot process information it can send an overload frame. The device is incapable
of initiating an overload frame, but will join a overload frame
initiated by another device as required by CAN specifications.
NON-DESTRUCTIVE CONTENTION-BASED
ARBITRATION
The CAN protocol allows several transmitting modules to
start a transmission at the same time as soon as they monitor the bus to be idle. During the start of transmission every
node monitors the bus line to detect whether its message is
overwritten by a message with a higher priority.As soon as a
transmitting module detects another module with a higher
priority accessing the bus, it stops transmitting its own frame
and switches to receive mode. For illustration see
AUTOMATIC RETRANSMISSION OF FRAMES
If a data or remote frame is overwritten by either a higherprioritized data frame, remote frame or an error frame, the
transmitting module will automatically retransmit it. This device will handle the automatic retransmission of up to two
data bytes automatically. Messages with more than 2 data
bytes require the user’s software to update the transmit registers.
ERROR DETECTION AND ERROR SIGNALING
All messages on the bus are checked by each CAN node
and acknowledge if they are correct. If any node detects an
error it starts the transmission of an error frame.
Switching Off Defective Nodes
There are two error counters, one for transmitted data and
one for received data, which are incremented, depending on
the error type, as soon as an error occurs. If either counter
goes beyond a specific value thenode goes to an error state.
A valid frame causes the error counters to decrease.
The device can be in one of three states with respect to error
handling:
Error active
•
An error active unit can participate in bus communication
and sends an active (“dominant”) error flag.
Error passive
•
An error passive unit can participate in bus communication. However, if the unit detects an error it is not allowed
to send an active errorflag. The unit sends only a passive
(“recessive”) error flag.

Basic CAN Concepts (Continued)
Bus off
•
A unit that is “bus off” has the output drivers disabled, i.e., it
does not participate in any bus activity.

Frame Formats
INTRODUCTION
There are basically two different types of frames used in the
CAN protocol.
The data transmission frames are:: data/remote frame
The control frames are:: error/overload frame
Note: This device cannot send an overload frame as a result of not being
able to process all information. However, the device is able to recognize an overload condition and join overload frames initiated by other
devices.
If no message is being transmitted, i.e., the bus is idle, the
bus is kept at the “recessive” level.
give an overview of the various CAN frame formats.
DATA AND REMOTE FRAME
Data frames consist of seven bit fields and remote frames
consist of six different bit fields:
1. Start of Frame (SOF)
2. Arbitration field
3. Control field (IDE bit, R0 bit, and DLC field)
4. Data field (not in remote frame)
5. CRC field
6. ACK field
7. End of Frame (EOF)
A remote frame has no data field and is used for requesting
data from other (remote) CAN nodes.
format of a CAN data frame.
FRAME CODING
Remote and Data Frames are NRZ codes with bit-stuffing in
every bit field which holds computable information for the interface, i.e., Start of Frame arbitration field, control field, data
field (if present) and CRC field.
Error and overload frames are NRZ coded without bit stuffing.

shows the
Figure 20
(See ERROR MANAGEMENT AND DETECTION for more
detailed information.)
DS012837-20
BIT STUFFING
After five consecutive bits of the same value, a stuff bit of the
inverted value is inserted by the transmitter and deleted by
the receiver.
Destuffed Bit Stream100000x011111x
Stuffed Bit Stream1000001x0111110x
Note: x = {0,1}
START OF FRAME (SOF)
The Start of Frame indicates the beginning of data and remote frames. It consists of a single “dominant” bit. A node is
only allowed to start transmission when the bus is idle. All
nodes have to synchronize to the leading edge (first edge after the bus was idle) caused by SOF of the node which starts
transmission first.
ARBITRATION FIELD
The arbitration field is composed of the identifier field and the
RTR (Remote Transmission Request) bit. The value of the
RTR bit is “dominant” in a data frame and “recessive” in a remote frame.
CONTROL FIELD
The control field consists of six bits. It starts with two bits reserved for future expansion followed by the four-bit Data
Length Code. Receivers must accept all possible combinations of the two reserved bits. Until the function of these reserved bits is defined, the transmitter only sends “0” (dominant) bits. The first reserved bit (IDE) is actually defined to
indicate an extended frame with 29 Identifier bits if set to “1”.
CAN chips must tolerate extended frames, even if they can
only understand standard frames, to prevent the destruction
of an extended frames on an existing network.
The Data Length Code indicates the number of bytes in the
data field. This Data Length Code consists of four bits. The
data field can be of length zero. The permissible number of
data bytes for a data frame ranges from 0 to 8.
www.national.com29
Page 30
Frame Formats (Continued)
DATA FIELD
The Data field consists of the data to be transferred within a
data frame. It can contain 0 to 8 bytes and each byte contains 8 bits. A remote frame has no data field.
CRC FIELD
The CRC field consists of the CRC sequence followed by the
CRC delimiter. The CRC sequence is derived by the transmitter from the modulo 2 division of the preceding bit fields,
starting with the SOF up to the end of the data field, excluding stuff-bits, by the generator polynomial:
15
χ
+ χ14+ χ10+ χ8+ χ7+ χ4+ χ3+1
The remainder of this divisionis the CRC sequence transmitted over the bus. On the receiver side the module divides all
bit fields up to the CRC delimiter, excluding stuff-bits, and
checks if the result is zero. This will then be interpreted as a
valid CRC. After the CRC sequence a single “recessive” bit
is transmitted as the CRC delimiter.
DS012837-21
A remote frame is identical to a data frame, except that the RTR bit is “recessive”, and there is no data field.
IDE = Identifier Extension Bit
The IDE bit in the standard format is transmitted “dominant”, whereas in the extended format the IDE bit is “recessive” and the id is expanded to 29 bits.
r = recessive
d = dominant

ACK FIELD
The ACK field is two bits long and contains theACK slot and
theACK delimiter.The ACK slot is filled with a “recessive” bit
by the transmitter. This bit is overwritten with a “dominant” bit
by every receiver that has received a correct CRC sequence. The second bit of the ACK field is a “recessive” bit
called the acknowledge delimiter.As a consequence the acknowledge flag of a valid frame is surrounded by two “recessive” bits, the CRC-delimiter and the ACK delimiter.
EOF FIELD
The End of Frame Field closes a data and a remote frame. It
consists of seven “recessive” bits.
INTERFRAME SPACE
Data and remote frames are separate from every preceding
frame (data, remote, error and overload frames) by the interframe space see
Figure 22
and
Figure 23
for details. Error
and overload frames are not preceded by an interframe
space. They can be transmitted as soon as the condition occurs. The interframe space consists of a minimum of three
bit fields depending on the error state of the node.
These bit fields are coded as follows:
The intermission has the fixed form of three “recessive” bits.
While this bit field is active, no node is allowed to start a
transmission of a data or a remote frame. The only action to
be taken is signaling an overload condition. This means that
an error in this bit field would be interpreted as an overload
condition. Suspend transmission has to be inserted by errorpassive nodes that were transmitter for the last message.
This bit field has the form of eight “recessive” bits. However,
it may be overwritten by a “dominant” start-bit from another
non error passive node which starts transmission. The bus
idle field consists of “recessive” bits. Its length is not specified and depends on the bus load.

ERROR FRAME
The Error Frame consists of two bit fields: the error flag and
the error delimiter. The error field is built up from the various
error flags of the different nodes. Therefore, its length may
vary from a minimum of six bits up to a maximum of twelve
bits depending on when a module detects the error. Whenever a bit error,stuff error,form error,or acknowledgment error is detected by anode, this node starts transmissionof the
error flag at the next bit. If a CRC error is detected, transmission of the error flag starts at the bit following the acknowledge delimiter, unless an error flag for a previous error condition has already been started.
fault at one module (module 2) leads to a 12-bit error frame
on the bus.
The bus level may either be “dominant” for an error-active
node or “recessive” for an error-passive node. An error active node detecting an error, starts transmitting an active er-

ror flag consisting of six “dominant” bits. This causes the destruction of the actual frame on the bus. The other nodes
detect the error flag as either a violation of the rule of bitstuffing or the value of a fixed bit field is destroyed.As a consequence all other nodes start transmission of their own error flag. This means, that the error sequence which can be
monitored on the bus as a maximum length of twelve bits. If
an error passive node detects an error it transmits six “recessive” bits on the bus. This sequence does not destroy a message sent by another node and is not detected by other
nodes. However, if the node detecting an error was the
transmitter of the frame the other modules will get an error
condition by a violation of the fixed bit or stuff rule.
Figure 25
shows how an error passive transmitter transmits a passive
error frame and when it is detected by the receivers.
After any module has transmitted its active or passive error
flag it waits for the error delimiter which consists of eight “recessive” bits before continuing.

OVERLOAD FRAME
Like an error frame, an overload frame consists of two bit
fields: the overload flag and the overload delimiter. The bit
fields have the same length as the error frame field: six bits
for the overload flag and eight bits for the delimiter.The over-
load frame can only be sent after the end of frame (EOF)
field and in they way destroys the fixed form of the intermission field.

Page 34
Frame Formats (Continued)
ORDER OF BIT TRANSMISSION
A frame is transmitted starting with the Start of Frame, sequentially followed by the remaining bit fields. In every bit
field the MSB is transmitted first.
FRAME VALIDATION
Frames have a different validation point for transmitters and
receivers.A frame is valid for the transmitter of a message, if
there is no error until the end of the last bit of the End of
Frame field. A frame is valid for a receiver, if there is no error
until and including the end of the penultimate bit of the End
of Frame.
FRAME ARBITRATION AND PRIORITY
Except for an error passive node which transmitted the last
frame, all nodes are allowed to start transmission of a frame
after the intermission, which can lead to two or more nodes
starting transmission at the same time. To prevent a node
from destroying another node’s frame, it monitors the bus
during transmission of the identifier field and the RTR-bit.As
soon as it detects a “dominant” bit while transmitting a “recessive” bit it releases the bus, immediately stops transmission and starts receiving the frame. This causes no data or
remote frame to be destroyed by another. Therefore the
highest priority message with the identifier 0x000 out of
0x7EF (including the remote data request (RTR) bit) always
gets the bus. This is only valid for standard CAN frame format. Note that while the CAN specification allows valid standard identifiers only in the range 0x000 to 0x7EF, the device
will allow identifiers to 0x7FF.
There are three more items that should be taken into consideration to avoid unrecoverable collisions on the bus:
Within one system each message must be assigned a
•
unique identifier.This is to prevent bit errors, as one module may transmit a “dominant” data bit while the other is
transmitting a “recessive” data bit. This could happen if
two or more modules start transmission of a frame at the
same time and all win arbitration.
Data frames with a given identifier and a non-zero data
•
length code may be initiated by one node only. Otherwise, in worst case, two nodes would count upto the busoff state, due to bit errors, if they always start transmitting
the same ID with different data.
Every remote frame should have a system-wide data
•
length code (DLC). Otherwise two modules starting
transmission of a remote frame at the same time will
overwrite each other’s DLC which result in bit errors.
ACCEPTANCE FILTERING
Every node may perform acceptance filtering on the identifier of a data or a remote frame to filter out the messages
which are not required by the node. In theyway only the data
of frames which match the acceptance filter is stored in the
corresponding data buffers. However, every node which is
not in the bus-off state and has received a correct CRCsequence acknowledges each frame.
ERROR MANAGEMENT AND DETECTION
There are multiple mechanisms in the CAN protocol, to detect errors and to inhibit erroneous modules from disabling
all bus activities.
FIGURE 26. Order of Bit Transmission within a CAN Frame
The following errors can be detected:
Bit Error
•
A CAN device that is sending also monitors the bus. If the
monitored bit value is different from the bit value that is sent,
a bit error is detected. The reception of a “dominant” bit instead of a “recessive” bit during the transmission of a passive error flag, during the stuffed bit stream of the arbitration
field or during the acknowledge slot, is not interpreted as a
bit error.
Stuff error
•
A stuff error is detected, if the bit level after 6 consecutive bit
times has not changed in a message field that has to be
coded according to the bit stuffing method.
www.national.com34
DS012837-31
Form Error
•
Aform error is detected, if a fixed frame bit (e.g., CRC delimiter,ACK delimiter) does not have the specified value. For a
receiver a “dominant” bit during the last bit of End of Frame
does NOT constitute a form error.
Bit CRC Error
•
ACRC error is detected if the remainder of the CRC calculation of a received CRC polynomial is non-zero.
Acknowledgment Error
•
An acknowledgment error is detected whenever a transmitting node does not get an acknowledgment from any other
node (i.e., when the transmitter does not receive a “dominant” bit during the ACK frame).
The device can be in one of three states with respect to error
handling:
Error active
•
Page 35
Frame Formats (Continued)
An error active unit can participate in bus communication
and sends an active (“dominant”) error flag.
Error passive
•
An error passive unit can participate in bus communication.
However, if the unit detects an error it is not allowed to send
an active error flag. The unit sends only a passive (“recessive”) error flag. A device is error passive when the transmit
error counter is greater than 127 or when the receive error
counter is greater than 127.A device becoming errorpassive
sends an active error flag. An error passive device becomes
error active again when both transmit and receive error
counter are less than 128.
Bus off
•
A unit that is “bus off” has the output drivers disabled, i.e., it
does not participate in any bus activity. A device is bus off
when the transmit error counter is greater than 255. Abus off
device will become error active again in one of two ways depending on which mode is selected by the user through the
Fault Confinement Mode select bit (FMOD) in the CAN Bus
Control Register (CBUS). Setting the FMOD bit to “0” (default after power on reset) will select the Standard Fault Confinement mode. In this mode the device goes from “bus off”
to “error active” after monitoring 128*11 recessive bits (including bus idle) on the bus. This mode has been implemented for compatibility reasons with existing solutions. Setting the FMOD bit to “1” will select the Enhanced Fault
Confinement mode. In this mode the device goes from “bus
off” to “error active” after monitoring 128 “good” messages,
as indicated by the reception of 11 consecutive “recessive”
bits including the End of Frame. The enhanced mode offers
the advantage that a “bus off” device (i.e., adevice with a serious fault) is not allowed to destroy any messages on the
bus until other devices can transmit at least 128 messages.
This is not guaranteed in the standard mode, where a defective device could seriously impact buscommunication. When
the device goes from “bus off” to “error active”, both error
counters will have the value “0”.
In each CAN module there are two error counters to perform
a sophisticated error management. The receive error
counter (REC) is 7 bits wide and switches the device to the
error passive state if it overflows. The transmit error counter
(TEC) is 8 bits wide. If it is greater than 127, the device is
switched to the error passive state. As soon as the TEC
overflows, the device is switched bus-off, i.e., it does not participate in any bus activity.
The counters are modified by the device’s hardware according to the following rules:

FIGURE 27. CAN Bus States
SYNCHRONIZATION
Every receiver starts with a “hard synchronization” on the
falling edge of the SOF bit. One bit time consists of four bit
segments: Synchronization segment, propagation segment,
phase segment 1 and phase segment 2.
A falling edge of the data signal should be in the synchronization segment. This segment has the fixed length of one
time quanta. To compensate for the various delays within a
network, the propagation segment is used. Its length is programmable from 1 to 8 time quanta. Phase segment 1 and
phase segment 2 are used to resynchronize during an active
frame. The length of these segments is from 1 to 8 time
quanta long.
Two types of synchronization are supported:
Hard synchronization is done with the falling edge on the
bus while the bus is idle, which is then interpreted as the
SOF. It restarts the internal logic.
Soft synchronization is used to lengthen or shorten the bit
time while a data or remote frame is received. Whenever a
falling edge is detected in the propagation segment or in
phase segment 1, the segment is lengthened by a specific
value, the resynchronization jump width (see
If a falling edge liesin the phase segment 2 (as shownin
ure 29
) it is shortened by the resynchronization jump width.

).
Fig-
Only one resynchronization is allowed during one bit time.
The sample point lies between the two phase segments and
is the point where the received data is supposed to be valid.
The transmission point lies at the end of phase segment 2 to
start a new bit time with the synchronization segment.
1. The resynchronization jump width (RJW) is automatically determined from the programmed value of PS. If a
soft resynchronization is done during phase segment 1
or the propagation segment, then RJW will either be
equal to 4 internal CAN clocks (CKI/(1
+ divider)
)orthe
programmed value of PS, whichever is less. PS2 will
never be shorter than 1 internal CAN clock.
2. (PS1 —BTL settings any PSC setting) The PS1 of the
BTL should always be programmed to values greater
than 1. To allow device resynchronization for positive
and negative phase errors on the bus. (if PS1 is programmed to one, a bit time could only be lengthened
and never shortened which basically disables half of the
synchronization).

Interrupts
INTRODUCTION
Each device supports fourteen vectored interrupts. Interrupt
sources include Timer 0, Timer 1, Timer 2, Timer 3, Port L
Wakeup, Software Trap, MICROWIRE/PLUS, and External
Input.
All interrupts force a branch to location 00FF Hex in program
memory. The VIS instruction may be used to vector to the
appropriate service routine from location 00FF Hex.
DS012837-35
The Software trap has the highest priority while the default
VIS has the lowest priority.
Each of the 14 maskable inputs has a fixed arbitration ranking and vector.

Interrupts (Continued)
MASKABLE INTERRUPTS
All interrupts other than the Software Trap are maskable.
Each maskable interrupt has an associated enable bit and
pending flag bit. The pending bit is set to 1 when the interrupt
condition occurs. The state of the interrupt enable bit, combined with the GIE bit determines whether an active pending
flag actually triggers an interrupt. All of the maskable interrupt pending and enable bits are contained in mapped control registers, and thus can be controlled by the software.
Amaskable interrupt condition triggers an interrupt under the
following conditions:
1. The enable bit associated with that interrupt is set.
2. The GIE bit is set.
3. The device is not processing a non-maskable interrupt.
(If a non-maskable interrupt is being serviced, a
maskable interrupt must wait until that service routine is
completed.)
An interrupt is triggered only when all of these conditions are
met at the beginning of an instruction. If different maskable
interrupts meet these conditions simultaneously, the highest
priority interrupt will be serviced first, and the other pending
interrupts must wait.
Upon Reset, all pending bits, individual enable bits, and the
GIE bit are reset to zero. Thus, a maskable interrupt condition cannot trigger an interrupt until the program enables it by
setting both the GIE bit and the individual enable bit. When
enabling an interrupt, the user should consider whether or
not a previously activated (set) pending bit should be acknowledged. If, at the time an interrupt is enabled, any previous occurrences of the interrupt should be ignored, the associated pending bit must be reset to zero prior to enabling
the interrupt. Otherwise, the interrupt may be simply enabled; if the pending bit is already set, it will immediately trigger an interrupt. A maskable interrupt is active if its associated enable and pending bits are set.
An interrupt is an asychronous event which may occur before, during, or after an instruction cycle. Any interrupt which
occurs during the execution of an instruction is not acknowledged until the start ofthe next normally executed instruction
is to be skipped, the skip is performed before the pending interrupt is acknowledged.
At the start of interrupt acknowledgment, the following actions occur:
1. The GIE bitis automatically reset to zero, preventing any
subsequent maskable interrupt from interrupting the current service routine. This feature prevents one maskable
interrupt from interrupting another one being serviced.
2. The address of the instruction about to be executed is
pushed onto the stack.
3. The program counter (PC) is loaded with 00FF Hex,
causing a jump to that program memory location.
The device requires seven instruction cycles to perform the
actions listed above.
If the user wishes to allow nested interrupts, the interrupts
service routine may set the GIE bit to 1 by writing to the PSW
register,and thus allow other maskable interrupts to interrupt
the current service routine. If nested interrupts are allowed,
caution must be exercised. The user must write the program
in such a way as to prevent stack overflow, loss of saved
context information, and other unwanted conditions.
The interrupt service routine stored at location 00FF Hex
should use the VIS instruction to determine the cause of the
interrupt, and jump to the interrupt handling routine corresponding to the highest priority enabled and active interrupt.
Alternately, the user may choose to poll all interrupt pending
and enable bits to determine the source(s) of the interrupt. If
more than one interrupt is active, the user’s program must
decide which interrupt to service.
Within a specific interrupt service routine, the associated
pending bit should be cleared. This is typically done as early
as possible in the service routine in order to avoid missing
the next occurrence of the same type of interrupt event.
Thus, if the same event occursa second time, even while the
first occurrence is still being serviced, the second occurrence will be serviced immediately upon return from the current interrupt routine.
An interrupt service routine typically ends with an RETI instruction. This instruction sets the GIE bit back to 1, pops the
address stored on the stack, and restores that address to the
program counter. Program execution then proceeds with the
next instruction that would have been executed had there
been no interrupt. If there are any valid interrupts pending,
the highest-priority interrupt is serviced immediately upon return from the previous interrupt.
VIS INSTRUCTION
The general interrupt service routine, which starts at address
00FF Hex, must be capable of handling all types of interrupts. The VIS instruction, together with an interrupt vector
table, directs the device tothe specific interrupt handling routine based on the cause of the interrupt.
VIS is a single-byte instruction, typically used at the very beginning of the general interrupt service routine at address
00FF Hex, or shortly after that point, just after the code used
for context switching. The VIS instruction determines which
enabled and pending interrupt has the highest priority, and
causes an indirect jump to the address corresponding to that
interrupt source. The jump addresses (vectors) for all possible interrupts sources are stored in a vector table.
The vector table may beas long as 32 bytes (maximum of16
vectors) and resides at the top of the 256-byte block containing the VIS instruction. However, if the VIS instruction is at
the very top of a 256-byte block (such as at 00FF Hex), the
vector table resides at the top of the next 256-byte block.
Thus, if the VIS instruction is located somewhere between
00FF and 01DF Hex (the usual case), the vector table is located between addresses 01E0 and 01FF Hex. If the VIS instruction is located between 01FF and 02DF Hex, then the
vector table is located between addresses 02E0 and 02FF
Hex, and so on.
Each vector is 15 bits long and points to the beginning of a
specific interrupt service routine somewhere in the 32 kbyte
memory space. Each vector occupies two bytes of thevector
table, with the higher-order byte at the lower address. The
vectors are arranged in order of interrupt priority. The vector
of the maskable interrupt with the lowest rank is located to
0yE0 (higher-order byte) and 0yE1 (lower-order byte). The
next priority interrupt is located at 0yE2 and 0yE3, and so
forth in increasing rank. The Software Trap has the highest
rank and its vector is always located at 0yFE and 0yFF.The
number of interrupts which can become active defines the
size of the table.
Table 10
shows the types of interrupts, the interrupt arbitration ranking, and the locations of the corresponding vectors
in the vector table.
The vector table should be filled by the user with the memory
locations of the specific interrupt service routines. For ex-
www.national.com39
Page 40

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

VIS Execution
When the VIS instruction is executed it activates the arbitration logic. The arbitration logic generates an even number
between E0 and FE (E0, E2, E4, E6 etc...) depending on
which active interrupt has the highest arbitration ranking at
the time of the 1st cycle of VIS is executed. For example, if
the software trap interrupt is active, FE is generated. If the
external interrupt is active and the software trap interrupt is
not, then FAis generated and so forth. If the only active interrupt is software trap, than E0 is generated. This number replaces the lower byte of the PC. The upper byte of the PC re-
mains unchanged. The new PC is therefore pointing to the
vector of the active interrupt with the highest arbitration ranking. This vector is read from program memory and placed
into the PC which is now pointed to the 1st instruction of the
service routine of the active interrupt with the highest arbitration ranking.

NON-MASKABLE INTERRUPT
Pending Flag
There is a pending flag bit associated with the non-maskable
interrupt, called STPND. This pending flag is not memorymapped and cannot be accessed directly by the software.
The pending flag is reset to zero when a device Reset occurs. When the non-maskable interrupt occurs, the associated pending bit is set to 1. The interrupt service routine
should contain an RPND instruction to reset the pending flag
to zero. The RPND instruction always resets the STPND
flag.
Software Trap
The Software Trap is a special kind of non-maskable interrupt which occurs when the INTR instruction (used to acknowledge interrupts) is fetched from program memory and
placed in the instruction register. This can happen in a variety of ways, usually because of an error condition. Some examples of causes are listed below.
If the program counter incorrectly points to a memory location beyond the available program memory space, the nonexistent or unused memory location returns zeroes which is
interpreted as the INTR instruction.
If the stack is popped beyond the allowed limit (address 06F
Hex), a 7FFF will be loaded into the PC, if this last location in
program memory is unprogrammed or unavailable, a Software Trap will be triggered.
A Software Trap can be triggered by a temporary hardware
condition such as a brownout or power supply glitch.
The Software Trap has the highest priority of all interrupts.
When a Software Trap occurs, the STPND bit is set. The GIE
bit is not affected and the pending bit (not accessible by the
user) is used to inhibit other interrupts and to direct the program to the ST service routine with the VIS instruction. Nothing can interrupt a Software Trap service routine except for
another Software Trap. The STPND can be reset only by the
RPND instruction or a chip Reset.
The Software Trap indicates an unusual or unknown error
condition. Generally, returning to normal execution at the
point where the Software Trap occurred cannot be done reliably. Therefore, the Software Trap service routine should
reinitialize the stack pointer and perform a recovery procedure that restarts the software at some known point, similar
to a device Reset, but not necessarily performing all the
same functions as a device Reset.The routine must also execute the RPND instruction to reset the STPND flag. Otherwise, all other interrupts will be locked out.To the extent possible, the interrupt routine should record or indicate the
context of the device so that the cause of the Software Trap
can be determined.
If the user wishes to return to normal execution from the
point at which the Software Trap was triggered, the user
must first execute RPND, followed by RETSK rather than
RETI or RET. This is because the return address stored on
the stack is the address of the INTR instruction that triggered
the interrupt. The program must skip that instruction in order
to proceed with the next one. Otherwise, an infinite loop of
Software Traps and returns will occur.
Programming a return to normal execution requires careful
consideration. If the Software Trap routine is interrupted by
another Software Trap, the RPND instruction in the service
routine for the second Software Trap will reset the STPND
flag; upon return to the first Software Trap routine, the
STPND flag will have the wrong state. This will allow
maskable interrupts to be acknowledged during the servicing
of the first Software Trap. Toavoid problems such as this, the
user program should contain the Software Trap routine to
perform a recovery procedure rather than a return to normal
execution.
Under normal conditions, the STPND flag is reset by a
RPND instruction in the Software Trap service routine. If a
programming error or hardware condition (brownout, power
supply glitch, etc.) sets the STPND flag without providing a
way for it to be cleared, all other interrupts will be locked out.
To alleviate this condition, the user can use extra RPND instructions in the main program and in the WATCHDOG service routine (if present). There is no harm in executing extra
RPND instructions in these parts of the program.
PORT L INTERRUPTS
Port L provides the user with an additional eight fully selectable, edge sensitive interrupts which are all vectored into the
same service subroutine.
The interrupt from Port L shares logic with the wake up circuitry.The register WKEN allows interrupts from Port L to be
individually enabled or disabled. The register WKEDG specifies the trigger condition to be either a positive or a negative
edge. Finally, the register WKPND latches in the pending
trigger conditions.
The GIE (Global Interrupt Enable) bit enables the interrupt
function.
A control flag, LPEN, functions as a global interrupt enable
for Port L interrupts. Setting the LPEN flag will enable interrupts and vice versa. A separate global pending flag is not
needed since the register WKPND is adequate.
Since Port L is also used for waking the device out of the
HALTor IDLE modes, the user can elect to exit the HALTor
IDLE modes either with or without the interrupt enabled. If he
elects to disable the interrupt, then the device will restart execution from the instruction immediately following the instruction that placed the microcontroller in the HALT or IDLE
modes. In the other case, the device will first execute the interrupt service routine and then revert to normal operation.
(See HALT MODE for clock option wakeup information.)
INTERRUPT SUMMARY
The device uses the following types of interrupts, listed below in order of priority:
1. The Software Trap non-maskable interrupt, triggered by
the INTR (00 opcode) instruction. The Software Trap is
acknowledged immediately. This interrupt service routine can be interrupted only by another Software Trap.
The Software Trap should end with two RPND instructions followed by a restart procedure.
2. Maskable interrupts, triggered by an on-chip peripheral
block or an external device connected to the device. Under ordinary conditions, a maskable interrupt will not interrupt any other interrupt routine in progress. A
maskable interrupt routine in progress can be interrupted by the non-maskable interrupt request. A
maskable interrupt routine should end with an RETI instruction or, prior to restoring context, should return to
execute the VIS instruction. This is particularly useful
when exiting long interrupt service routiness if the time
between interrupts is short. Inthis case the RETI instruction would only be executed when the default VIS routine is reached.

Detection of Illegal Conditions
The device can detect various illegal conditions resulting
from coding errors, transient noise, power supply voltage
drops, runaway programs, etc.
Reading of underfined ROM gets zeros. The opcode for software interrupt is zero. If the program fetches instructions
from undefined ROM, this will force a software interrupt, thus
signaling that an illegal condition has occurred.
The subroutine stack grows down for each call (jump to subroutine), interrupt, or PUSH, and grows up for each return or
POP. The stack pointer is initialized to RAM location 02FHex
during reset. Consequently, if there are more returns than
calls, the stack pointer will point to addresses 030 and 031
Hex (which are undefined RAM). Undefined RAM from address 030 to 03F Hex is read as all 1’s, which in turn will
cause the program to return to address 7FFF Hex. This is an
undefined ROM location and the instruction fetched (all 0’s)
from this location will generate a software interrupt signaling
an illegal condition.
Thus, the chip can detect the following illegal conditions:
1. Executing from undefined ROM.
2. Over “POP”ing the stack by having more returns than
calls.
When the software interrupt occurs, the user can re-initialize
the stack pointer and doa recovery procedure before restarting (this recovery program is probably similar to that following reset, but might not contain the same program initialization procedures).
MICROWIRE/PLUS
MICROWIRE/PLUS is a serial synchronouscommunications
interface. The MICROWIRE/PLUS capability enables the device to interface with any of National Semiconductor’s MICROWIRE peripherals (i.e., A/D converters, display drivers,
E2PROMs etc.) and with other microcontrollers which support the MICROWIRE interface. It consists of an 8-bit serial
shift register (SIO) with serial data input (SI), serial data output (SO) and serial shift clock (SK).
diagram of the MICROWIRE/PLUS logic.
The shift clock can be selected from either an internal source
or an external source. Operating the MICROWIRE/PLUS arrangement with the internal clock source is called the Master
mode of operation. Similarly, operating the MICROWIRE/
PLUS arrangement with an external shift clock is called the
Slave mode of operation.
The CNTRL register is used to configure and control the
MICROWIRE/PLUS mode. To use the MICROWIRE/PLUS,
the MSEL bit in the CNTRL register is set to one. In the master mode the SK clock rate is selected by the two bits, SL0
and SL1, in the CNTRL register.
clock rates that may be selected.
MICROWIRE/PLUS OPERATION
Setting the BUSY bit in the PSW register causes the
MICROWIRE/PLUS to start shifting the data. It gets reset
when eight data bits have been shifted. The user may reset
the BUSY bit by software to allow less than 8 bits to shift. If
enabled, an interrupt is generated when eight data bits have
been shifted. The device may enter the MICROWIRE/PLUS
mode either as a Master or as a Slave.
two COP888 family microcontrollers and several peripherals
may be interconnected using the MICROWIRE/PLUS arrangements.
WARNING:
The SIO register should only be loaded when the SK clock is
low. Loading the SIO register while the SK clock is high will
result in undefined data in the SIO register. SK clock is normally low when not shifting.
Setting the BUSY flag when the input SK clock is high in the
MICROWIRE/PLUS slave mode may cause the current SK
clock for the SIO shift register to be narrow. For safety, the
BUSY flag should only be set when the input SK clock is low.

MICROWIRE/PLUS Master Mode Operation
In the MICROWIRE/PLUS Master mode of operation the
shift clock (SK) is generated internally. The MICROWIRE

the CNTRL register must be set to enable the SO and SK
functions onto the G Port. The SO and SK pins must also be
selected as outputs by setting appropriate bits in the Port G

MICROWIRE/PLUS Slave Mode Operation
In the MICROWIRE/PLUS Slave mode of operation the SK

onto the G Port. The SK pin must be selected as an input
and the SO pin is selected as an output pin by setting and resetting the appropriate bit in the Port G configuration register.

summarizes the settings required to enter the
Slave mode of operation.
The user must set the BUSY flag immediately upon entering
the Salve mode. This will ensure that all data bits sent by the
Master will be shifted properly. After eight clock pulses the
BUSY flag will be cleared and the sequence may be repeated.

Alternate SK Phase Operation
The device allows either the normal SK clock or an alternate
phase SK clock to shift data in and out of the SIO register.In
both the modes the SK is normally low. In the normal mode
data is shifted in on the rising edge of the SK clock and the
data is shifted out on the falling edge of the SK clock. The
SIO register is shifted on each falling edge of the SK clock in
the normal mode. In the alternate SK phase mode the SIO
register is shifted on the rising edge of the SK clock.
A control flag, SKSEL, allows either the normal SK clock or
the alternate SK clock to be selected. Resetting SKSEL
causes the MICROWIRE/PLUS logic to be clocked from the
normal SK signal. Setting the SKSEL flag selects the alternate SK clock. The SKSEL is mapped into the G6 configuration bit. The SKSEL flag will power up in the reset condition,
selecting the normal SK signal.

Serial Peripheral Interface
FIGURE 36. SPI Transmission Example
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is used in master-slave
bus systems. It is a synchronous bidirectional serial communication interface with two data lines MISO and MOSI (Master In Slave Out, Master Out Slave In). A serial clock and a
slave select (SS) signal are always generated by the SPI
Master. The interface receives/transmits protocol frames
with up to 12 bytes length within a frame, where a frame is
defined as the time between a falling edge and a rising edge
of SS.
THEORY OF OPERATION
Figure 38
tion of the SPI circuit. In the SPI interface, data is
transmitted/received in packets of 8 bits length which are
shifted into/out of a shift register with the active edge of the
shift clock SCK. Two 12 byte FIFOs, which serve as a receive and a transmit buffer, allow a maximum message
length of 12 x 8 bits in both transmit and receive direction
without CPU intervention. With CPU intervention, many
more bytes can be received. Two registers, the SPI Control
Register (SPICNTL) and the SPI Status Register (SPISTAT),
are used to control the SPI interface via the internal COP
bus. Several different operation modes, such as master or
slave operation, are possible.
An SS-Expander allows the generation of up to 8 signals on
the N-port, which can be used as additional SS-signals
shows a block diagram illustrating the basic opera-
DS012837-38
(ESS[7:0]) or as host programmable general purpose signals. The SS-Expander is programmed with the content of
the first MOSI-byte (i.e., the content of the 1st byte [7:0] appears at ESS[7:0]) (N-port[7:0]), respectively), if the ESS
programming mode is selected. The ESS programming
mode is selected by the condition MOSI = L at the falling
edge of SS.
Use of the ESS expander requires the setup of four conditions by the user.
1. Set the SESSEN bit of SPICNTL.
2. Set PORTNX to select which bits are used forSS expansion.
3. Configure the PORTNC register to enable the desired
SS expansion bits as outputs.
4. Have an ESS condition (MOSI = low at the falling edge
of SS).
Loop Back Mode
Setting the SLOOP bit enables the Loop Back mode, which
can be used for test purposes. If the Loop Back mode is selected, TX FIFO data are communicated to the RX FIFO via
the SPI Register. In the slave mode, MISO output is internally connected to the MOSI input. In the master mode, the
MOSI output is internally connected to the MISO input.
0— The detection of the ESS programming mode is disabled, i.e., the value of MOSI at the falling
edge of SS is “don’t care”.
1— ESS programming mode detection is enabled, i.e., if the condition “MOSI=0atthefalling edge
of SS” occurs, the SS-Expander is selected and bits [7:0] of the first transmitted byte determine the
state of the N-port (ESS[7:0]). ESS[7:0] will go 1 at the positive edge of SS.

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

The SPI Status Register is a read only register.

This bit is set on the attempt to overwrite valid data in the RX FIFO by the SPI interface. (The condition to
detect this is: SRWP = SRRP & COP has not read the data at SRRP and attempting to write to the RX FIFO
by the SPI interface.) This bit can generate a receive interrupt if the receive interrupt is enabled (SRIE = 1).
(Notes 28, 29, 30)
B6SRBNESPI Receive buffer not empty
This bit is set with a write to the SPI RX FIFO resulting in SRWP ! = SRRP (caution at rollover!). This bit is
reset with the read of the SPIRXD register resulting in SRWP to be equal to SRRP.
B5STBFThis bit can generate a receive interrupt if enabled with the RIE bit.
SPI Transmit buffer full
This bit is set after a write operation to the SPITXD register (from the COP side), which results in STRP =
STWP. It gets reset as soon as the STRP gets incremented - by the SPI if reading data out of the TX FIFO.
B4STBESPI transmit buffer empty
This bit is set after the last bit of the a read from the SPITXD register, which results in STRP = STWP. It gets
reset as soon as the STWP gets incremented - by the COP if writing data into the TX FIFO. It is set on reset.
B3STFLSPI Transmit buffer flush
This bit indicates that the contents of the transmit buffer got discharged by the SS signal becoming high
before all data in the transmit buffer could be transmitted. This bit gets set if the SS signal gets high and
1.STRP ! = STWP or
2.STRP = STWP and the current byte has not been completely transmitted from the SPI shift register
These conditions will reset STRP and STWP to 0. These are virtual pointers and cannot be viewed. (Note 31)
B2SESSDETSPI SS Expander detection
This bit indicates the detection of a SS expand condition (MOSI=0atthefalling edge of SS) immediately
after the N-port has been programmed (8th SCK bit, 8 µs at SCK = 1 MHz).
This bit is reset at the rising edge of SS.

0: normal communication. (Note 32)
B1Reserved

Note 28: At this condition the write operation will not be executed and all data get lost.
Note 29: The SRORN bit stays set until the reset condition.
This bit is reset with a dummy write to the SPISTAT register. (As the register is read only a dummy write does not have any effect on any other bits in this register.)
As a result of the SRORN condition, the SRWP becomes frozen (i.e., does not change until the SRORN bit is reset) and the SPI will not store any new data in the
RX FIFO.
Note 30: With the SRRP being still available, the user can read the data in the RX FIFO before resetting the SRORN bit.
Note 31: STRP= STWP & STBE = 1 will generate an interrupt.
This bit gets reset with a write to the SPITXD register.
Note 32: The SPI master must hold SS = 0 long enough to allow the device to read SESSDET. Otherwise the SESSDET information will get lost.

SPI Status Register (Continued)
SPI SYNCHRONIZATION
After the SPI is enabled (SPIEN = 1), the SPI internal receive and transmit shift clock is kept disabled until SS becomes inactive. This includes SS being active at the time
SPIEN is set, i.e., no receive/transmit is possible until SS
becomes inactive after enabling the SPI.
HALT/IDLE MODE
If the device enters the HALT/IDLEmode, both RX and TX
FIFOs get reset (Flushed). If the device is exiting HALT/
IDLE mode, and SPI synchronization takes place as described above. SPIRXD and SPITXD have the same state
as after Reset, SPISTAT bits after HALT/IDLE mode are:
SRORN:unchanged
SRBNE:0
STBF:0
STBE:1
STFL:1
SESSDET: x (depending on SS and MOSI line)
TRANSMISSION START IN MASTER MODE
The transmission of data in the Master mode is started if
the user controlled SS signal is switched active. No SCK
will be generated in Master mode and thus no data is
transmitted if the SS signal is kept high, i.e., SS must be
switched low to generate SCK. Resetting the SS signal in
the Master mode will immediately stop the transmission
and flush the transmit FIFO. Thus, the user must only reset the SS if:
1. TBE is set or
2. SCK is high (SCE = 0) or low (SCE = 1)
TX AND RX FIFO
If the SPI is disabled (SPIEN = 0), all SPI FIFO related
pointers are reset and kept at zero until the SPI is enabled
again.Also, the Read/Write operation to both SPITXD and
SPIRXD will not cause the pointers to change, if SPIEN is
set, Read operations from the RXFIFO and Write operation to TXFIFO will increment the respective Read/Write
pointers.
SPIRXD SPI Receive Data Register
SPIRXD is at address location “009A”. It is a read/write
register.
This register holds the receive data at the current SRRP
location: a COP read operation from thisregister to the accumulator will read the RX FIFO at the SRRP location and
increment SRRP afterwards. Awrite to this register (by the
controllers SW) will write to the RX FIFO at the current
SRRP location. The SRRP is not changed.
Note: During breakpoint the SRRP is not incremented.
Awrite to this register from the SPI interface side will write to
the current SRWP location and increment SRWP afterwards.
SPITXD SPI Transmit Data Register
SPITXD is at address location “009B”. It is a read/write register.
This register holds the transmit data at the current STWP location: a write from the controller to this register will write to
the STWP location and increment the STWP afterwards. A
read from the controller to this register will read the TX FIFO
at the current STWP location. The pointer is not changed.
Writing data into this register will start a transmission of data
in the master mode.
Note: No read modify write instructions should be used on this register.
Reading this register from the SPI side will read the byte at
the current STRP location and afterwards increment STRP.
SPI RX FIFO
The SPI RX FIFO is a 12 byte first in first out buffer. SPI RX
FIFO data are read from the controller by reading the
SPIRXD register. A pointer (SRRP) controls the controller
read location. Data is written to this register by the SPI interface. The write location is controlled by the SRWP. SRWP is
incremented after data is stored to the FIFO SRWP is never
decremented SRWP has a roll-over 10→11→0→1
2→etc. It is a circularly linked list.
SRRP is incremented after data is read from the FIFO SRRP
is never decremented SRRP has a roll-over 10→11→0
1→2→etc. It is a circularly linked list.
Both pointers are cleared at reset.
The following bits indicate the status of the RX FIFO:
SRBNE = (SRWP != SRRP) and !SRORN .SRORN is set at
(SRWP = SRRP) and after a write from the SPI side, reset at
write to SPISTAT.
Special conditions: if .SRORN is set, no writes to the RX
FIFO are allowed from the SPI side. SRWP is frozen. Resetting. SRORN (after it was set) clears both SRWP and SRRP.
To prevent erroneous clearing of the Receive FIFO when entering HALT/IDLE mode, the user needs to enable the MIWU
or port M3 (SS) by setting bit 3 in MWKEN register.
SPI TX FIFO
The SPI TX FIFO is a 12 byte first in first out buffer. Data is
written to the FIFO by the controller executing a write instruction to the SPITXD register. A pointer (STWP) controls the
controller write location. Data is read from this register by the
SPI interface. The read location is controlled by the STRP.
STRP is incremented after data is read from the FIFO STRP
is never decremented STRP has a roll-over 10→11→0
1→2→etc. It is a circularly linked list.
STWP is incremented after data is written to the FIFO STWP
is never decremented STWP has a roll-over 10→11→0
1→2→etc. It is a circularly linked list.
Both pointers are cleared at reset.
The following bits indicate the status of the TX FIFO: STBF
= set at (STRP = STWP) after a write from the controller reset at ((STRP != STWP) I STBE) after a read from the SPI
STBE = (STRP = STWP) after a read from the SPI.
Special conditions: If the SS signal becomes high before
data the last bit of the last byte in the TX FIFO is transmitted
both STRP and STWP will be set to 0. The STFL bit will be
set. (STBE will be set as well.)
Note: The SRRP,SRWP,STRP and STWP registers are not available to the
user. Their operation description is included for clarity and to enhance
the user’s understanding.

A/D Converter (Continued)
OPERATING MODES
The A/D converter supports ratiometric measurements. It
supports both Single Ended and Differential modes of operation.
Four specific analog channel selection modes are supported. These are as follows:
Allow any specific channel to be selected at one time. The
A/D converter performs the specific conversion requested
and stops.
Allow any specific channel to be scanned continuously. In
other words, the user specifies the channel and the A/D converter scans it continuously. At any arbitrary time the user
can immediately read the result of the last conversion. The
user must wait for only the first conversion to complete.
Allow any differential channel pair to be selected at one time.
The A/D converter performs the specific differential conversion requested and stops.
Allow any differential channel pair to be scanned continuously.In other words, the user specifies the differential channel pair and the A/D converter scans it continuously. At any
arbitrary time the user can immediately read the result of the
last differential conversion. The user must wait for only the
first conversion to complete.
TheA/D converter is supported by two memory mapped registers, the result register and the mode control register.
When the device is reset, the mode control register (ENAD)
is cleared, the A/D is powered down and the A/D result register has unknown data.
A/D Control Register
The ENAD control register contains 3 bits for channel selection, 2 bits for prescaler selection, 2 bits for mode selection
and a Busy bit. An A/D conversion is initiated by setting the
ADBSY bit in the ENAD control register. The result of the
conversion is available to the user in the A/D result register,
ADRSLT, when ADBSY is cleared by the hardware on
completion of the conversion.

various prescaler options.

BUSY BIT
The ADBSY bit of the ENAD register is used to control starting and stopping of the A/D conversion. When ADBSY is
cleared, the prescale logic is disabled and the A/D clock is
turned off. Setting theADBSY bit starts the A/D clock and initiates a conversion based on the mode select value currently
.
in the ENAD register. Normal completion of an A/D conversion clears the ADBSY bit and turns off the A/D converter.
TheADBSY bit remains a one during continuous conversion.
The user can stop continuous conversion by writing a zero to
the ADBSY bit.
If the user wishes to restart a conversion which is already in
progress, this can be accomplished only by writing a zero to
the ADBSY bit to stop the current conversion and then by
writing a one to ADBSY to start a new conversion. This can
be done in two consecutive instructions.
ADC Operation
The A/D converter interface works as follows. Setting the
ADBSY bit in the A/D control register ENAD initiates an A/D
conversion. The conversion sequence starts at the beginning of the write to ENAD operation which sets ADBSY, thus
powering up theA/D. At the first falling edge of the converter
clock following the write operation, the sample signal turns
www.national.com54
Page 55
A/D Converter (Continued)
on for seven clock cycles. If the A/D is in single conversion
mode, the conversion complete signal from the A/D will generate a power down for the A/D converter and will clear the
ADBSY bit in the ENAD register at the next instruction cycle
boundary. If the A/D is in continuous mode, the conversion
complete signal will restart the conversion sequence by deselecting the A/D for one converter clock cycle before starting the next sample. The A/D 8-bit result is immediately
loaded into the A/D result register (ADRSLT) upon completion. Internal logic prevents transient data (resulting from the
A/D writing a new result over an old one) being read from
ADRSLT.
Inadvertent changes to the ENAD register during conversion
are prevented by the control logic of the A/D. Any attempt to
write any bit of the ENAD Register except ADBSY, while
ADBSY is a one, is ignored. ADBSY must be cleared either
by completion of anA/D conversion or by the user before the
prescaler, conversion mode or channel select values can be
changed.After stopping the current conversion, the user can
load different values for the prescaler, conversion mode or
channel select and start a new conversion in one instruction.
It is important for the user to realize that, when used in differential mode, only the positive input to the A/D converter is
sampled and held. The negative input is constantly connected and should be held stable for the duration of the conversion. Failure to maintain a stable negative input will result
in incorrect conversion.
PRESCALER
The A/D Converter (A/D) contains a prescaler option that allows four different clock selections. The A/D clock frequency
is equal to CKI divided by the prescaler value. Note that the
prescaler value must be chosen such that the A/D clock falls
within the specified range. The maximum A/D frequency is
1.67 MHz. This equates to a 600 ns A/D clock cycle.
The A/D converter takes 17 A/D clock cycles to complete a
conversion. Thus the minimum A/D conversion time for the
device is 10.2 µs when a prescaler of 6 has been selected.
The 17 A/D clock cycles needed for conversion consist of 1
cycle at the beginning for reset, 7 cycles for sampling, 8
cycles for converting, and 1 cycle for loading the result into
theA/D result register (ADRSLT).This A/D result register is a
read-only register. The user cannot write into ADRSLT.
TheADBSY flag provides an A/D clock inhibit function,which
saves power by powering down the A/D when it is not in use.
Note: The A/D converter is also powered down when the device is in either
the HALTor IDLE modes. If the A/D is running when the device enters
the HALT or IDLE modes, the A/D powers down and then restarts the
conversion with a corrupted sampled voltage (and thus an invalid result) when the device comes out of the HALT or IDLE modes.
Analog Input and Source Resistance Considerations
Figure 43
shows the A/D pin model in single ended mode.
The differential mode has a similarA/D pin model. The leads
to the analog inputs should be kept as short as possible.
Both noise and digital clock coupling to an A/D input can
cause conversion errors. The clock lead should be kept
away from the analog input line to reduce coupling. The A/D
channel input pins do not have any internal output driver circuitry connected to them because this circuitry would load
the analog input signals due to output buffer leakagecurrent.
Source impedances greater than 3 kΩ on the analog input
lines will adversely affect the internal RC charging time during input sampling.As shown in
Figure 43
, the analog switch
to the DAC array is closed only during the 7 A/D cycle
sample time. Large source impedances on the analog inputs
may result in the DAC array not being charged to the correct
voltage levels, causing scale errors.
If large source resistance is necessary, the recommended
solution is to slow down the A/D clock speed in proportion to
the source resistance. The A/D converter may be operated
at the maximum speed for R
than 3 kΩ, A/D clock speed needs to be reduced. For example, with R
at half the maximum speed. A/D converter clock speed may

minimum clock speed is 100 kHz.

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

ETI: This bit enables/disables interrupt from the transmitter
section. Read/Write, cleared on reset.
ETI = 0Interrupt from the transmitter is disabled.

Associated I/O Pins
Data is transmitted on the TDX pin and received on the RDX
pin. TDX is the alternate function assigned to Port L pin L2;
it is selected by setting ETDX (in the ENUI register) to one.
RDX is an inherent function of Port L pin L3, requiring no
setup.
The baud rate clock for the USART can be generated onchip, or can be taken from an external source. Port L pin L1
(CKX) is the external clock I/O pin. The CKX pin can be either an input or an output, as determined by Port L Configuration and Data registers (Bit 1). As an input, it accepts a
clock signal which may be selected to drive the transmitter
and/or receiver. As an output, it presents the internal Baud
Rate Generator output.
USART Operation
The USART has two modes of operation; asynchronous
mode and synchronous mode.
ASYNCHRONOUS MODE
This mode is selected by resetting the SSEL (in the ENUI
register) bit to zero. The input frequency to the USART is 16
times the baud rate.
The TSFT and TBUF registers double-buffer data for transmission. While TSFT is shifting out the current character on
the TDX pin, the TBUF register may be loaded by software
with the next byte to be transmitted. When TSFT finishes
transmitting the current character the contents of TBUF are
transferred to the TSFT register and the Transmit Buffer
Empty Flag (TBMT in the ENU register) is set. The TBMT
flag is automatically reset by the USART when software
loads a new character into the TBUF register. There is also
the XMTG bit which is set to indicate that the USART is
transmitting. This bit gets reset at the end of the last frame
(end of last Stop bit). TBUF is a read/write register.
The RSFT and RBUF registers double-buffer data being received. The USART receiver continually monitors the signal
on the RDX pin for a low level to detect the beginning of a
Start bit. Upon sensing this low level, it waits for half a bit
time and samples again. If the RDX pin is still low, the receiver considers this to bea valid Start bit, andthe remaining
bits in the character frame areeach sampled a single time, at
the mid-bit position. Serial data input on the RDX pin is
shifted into the RSFT register. Upon receiving the complete
character, the contents of the RSFT register are copied into
the RBUF register and the Received Buffer Full Flag (RBFL)
is set. RBFL is automatically reset when software reads the
character from the RBUF register. RBUF is a read only register. There is also the RCVG bit which is set high when a
framing error occurs and goes low once RDX goes high.
TBMT, XMTG, RBFL and RCVG are read only bits.
SYNCHRONOUS MODE
In this mode data is transferred synchronously with the
clock. Data is transmitted on the rising edge and received on
the falling edge of the synchronous clock.
This mode is selected by setting SSEL bit in the ENUI register. The input frequency to the USART is the same as the
baud rate.
When an external clock input isselected at the CKX pin, data
transmit and receive are performed synchronously with this
clock through TDX/RDX pins.
If data transmit and receive are selected with the CKX pin as
clock output, the device generates the synchronous clock
output at the CKX pin. The internal baud rate generator is
used to produce the synchronous clock. Data transmit and
receive are performed synchronously with this clock.
FRAMING FORMATS
The USART supports several serial framing formats (
45
) . The format is selected using control bits in the ENU,
ENUR and ENUI registers.
The first format (1, 1a, 1b, 1c) for data transmission (CHL0 =
1, CHL1 = 0) consists of Start bit, seven Data bits (excluding
parity) and 7/8, one or two Stop bits. In applications using
parity, the parity bit is generated and verified by hardware.
The second format (CHL0 = 0, CHL1 = 0) consists of one
Start bit, eight Data bits (excluding parity) and 7/8, one or
two Stop bits. Parity bit is generated and verified by hardware.
The third format for transmission (CHL0 = 0, CHL1 = 1) consists of one Start bit, nine Data bits and 7/8, one or two Stop
bits. This format also supports the USART “ATTENTION”
feature. When operating in this format, all eight bits of TBUF
and RBUF are used for data. The ninth data bitis transmitted
and received using two bits in the ENU and ENUR registers,
called XBIT9 and RBIT9. RBIT9 is a read only bit. Parity is
not generated or verified in this mode.
For any of the above framing formats, the last Stop bit can
be programmed to be 7/8th of a bit in length. If two Stop bits
are selected and the 7/8th bit is set (selected), the second
Stop bit will be 7/8th of a bit in length.
The parity is enabled/disabled by PEN bit located in the ENU
register. Parity is selected for 7-bit and 8-bit modes only. If
parity is enabled (PEN = 1), the parity selection is then performed by PSEL0 and PSEL1 bits located in the ENU
register.

USART Operation (Continued)
FIGURE 45. Framing Formats
Note that the XBIT9/PSEL0 bit located in the ENU register
serves two mutually exclusive functions. This bit programs
the ninth bit for transmission when the USART is operating
with nine data bits per frame. There is no parity selection in
this framing format. For other framing formats XBIT9 is not
needed and the bit is PSEL0 used in conjunction with PSEL1
to select parity.
The frame formats for the receiver differ form the transmitter
in the number to Stop bits required. The receiver only requires one Stop bit ina frame, regardless of the setting ofthe
Stop bit selection bits in the control register. Note that an implicit assumption is made for full duplex USART operatioin
that the framing formats are the same for the transmitter and
receiver.
USART INTERRUPTS
The USART is capable of generating interrupts. Interrupts
are generated on Receive Buffer Full and Transmit Buffer
Empty. Both interrupts have individual interrupt vectors. Two
bytes of program memory space are reserved for each interrupt vector. The two vectors are located at addresses 0xEC
to 0xEF Hex in the program memory space. The interrupts
DS012837-49
can be individually enabled or disabled using Enable Transmit Interrupt (ETI) and Enable Receive Interrupt (ERI) bits in
the ENUI register.
The interrupt from the Transmitter is set pending, and remains pending, as long as both the TBMT and ETI bits are
set. To remove this interrupt, software must either clear the
ETI bit or write to the TBUF register (thus clearing the TBMT
bit).
The interrupt from the receiver is set pending, and remains
pending, as long as both the RBFL and ERI bits are set. To
remove this interrupt, software must either clear the ERI bit
or read from the RBUF register (thus clearing the RBFL bit).
Baud Clock Generation
The clock inputs to the transmitter and receiver sections of
the USART can be individually selected to come either from
an external source at the CKX pin (port L, pin L1) or from a
source selected in the PSR and BAUD registers. Internally,
the basic baud clock is created from the oscillator frequency
through a two-stage divider chain consisting of a 1–16 (increments of 0.5) prescaler and an 11-bit binary counter.(

) The divide factors are specified through two read/

(PSR). PSR is cleared upon reset.
As shown in
Table15
NO CLOCK. NO CLOCK condition is the USART power
down mode where the USART clock is turned off for power
saving purpose. The user must also turn the USART clock
off when a different baud rate is chosen.
The correspondences between the 5-bit Prescaler Select
and Prescaler factors are shown in
many ways to calculate the two divisor factors, but one particularly effective method would be to achieve a 1.8432 MHz
frequency coming out of the first stage. The 1.8432 MHz
prescaler output is then used to drive the software programmable baud rate counter to create a x16 clock for the following baud rates: 110,134.5, 150, 300, 600, 1200, 1800, 2400,
3600, 4800, 7200, 9600, 19200 and 38400 (
baud rates may be created by using appropriate divisors.
The x16 clock isthen divided by 16 to provide the rate for the
serial shift registers of the transmitter and receiver.
As an example, considering the Asynchronous Mode and a
CKI clock of 4.608 MHz, the prescaler factor selected is:
4.608/1.8432 = 2.5
The 2.5 entry is available in

Baud Rate = 1.8432 MHz/(16 x 6) = 19200
The divide by 16 is performed because in the asynchronous
mode, the input frequency to the USART is 16 times the
baud rate. The equation to calculate baud rates is given below.
The actual Baud Rate may be found from:
BR = Fc/(16XNXP)
Where:
BR is the Baud Rate
Fc is the CKI frequency
N is the Baud Rate Divisior (

Effect of HALT/IDLE
The USART logic is reinitialized when either the HALT or
IDLE modes are entered. This reinitialization sets the TBMT
flag and resets all read only bits in the USART control and
status registers. Read/Write bits remain unchanged. The
Transmit Buffer (TBUF) is not affected, but the Transmit Shift
register (TSFT) bits are set to one. The receiver registers
RBUF and RSFT are not affected.
The device will exit from the HALT/IDLE modes when the
Start bit of a character is detected at the RDX (L3) pin. This
feature is obtained by using the Multi-Input Wakeup scheme
provided on the device.
Before entering the HALT or IDLE modes the user program
must select the Wakeup source to be on the RXD pin. This
selection is done by setting bit 3 of WKEN (Wakeup Enable)
register.The Wakeup trigger condition is then selected to be
high to low transition. This is done via the WKEDG register.
(Bit 3 is one.)
If the device is halted and crystal oscillator is used, the
Wakeup signal will not start the chip running immediately because of the finite start up time requirement of the crystal oscillator.The idle timer (T0) generates a fixed (256 t

c
Diagnostic
Bits CHL0 and CHL1 in the ENU register provide a loopback
feature for diagnostic testing of the USART. When these bits
are set to one, the following occur: The receiver input pin
(RDX) is internally connected to the transmitter output pin
(TDX); the output of the Transmitter Shift Register is “looped
back” into the Receive Shift Register input. In this mode,
data that is transmitted is immediately received. This feature
allows the processor to verify the transmit and receive data
paths of the USART.
Note that the framing format for this mode is the nine bit format; one Start bit, nine data bits, and 7/8, one or two Stop
bits. Parity is not generated or verified in this mode.
Attention Mode
The USART Receiver section supports an alternate mode of
operation, referred to as ATTENTION Mode. This mode of
operation is selected by the ATTN bit in the ENUR register.
The data format for transmission must also be selected as
having nine Data bits and either 7/8, one or two Stop bits.
The ATTENTION mode of operation is intended for use in
networking the device with other processors, Typically in
such environments the messages consists of device addresses, indicating which of several destinations should receive them, and the actual data. This Mode supports a
scheme in which addresses are flagged by having the ninth
bit of the data field set to a 1. If the ninth bit is reset to a zero
the byte is a Data byte.
While in ATTENTION mode, the USART monitors the communication flow, but ignores all characters until an address
character is received. Upon receiving an address character,
the USART signals that the character is ready by setting the
RBFL flag, which in turn interrupts the processor if USART
Receiver interrupts are enabled. The ATTNbit isalso cleared
www.national.com61
Page 62
Attention Mode (Continued)
automatically at this point, so that data characters as well as
address characters are recognized. Software examines the
contents of the RBUF and responds by deciding either to accept the subsequent data stream (by leaving the ATTN bit reset) or to wait until the next address character is seen (by
setting the ATTN bit again).
Operation of the USARTTransmitter is not affected by selection of this Mode. The value of the ninth bit to be transmitted
is programmed by setting XBIT9 appropriately. The value of
the ninth bit received is obtained by reading RBIT9. Since
this bit is located in ENUR register where the error flags reside, a bit operation on it will reset the error flags.
WATCHDOG
The device contains a WATCHDOG and clock monitor. The
WATCHDOG is designed to detect the user program getting
stuck in infinite loops resulting in loss of program control or
“runaway” programs. The Clock Monitor is used to detect the
absence of a clock or a very slow clock below a specified
rate on the CKI pin.
The WATCHDOG consists of two independent logic blocks:
WD UPPER and WD LOWER. WD UPPER establishes the
upper limit on the service window and WD LOWER defines
the lower limit of the service window.
Servicing the WATCHDOG consists of writing a specific
value to a WATCHDOG Service Register named WDSVR
which is memory mapped in the RAM. This value is composed of three fields, consisting of a 2-bit Window Select, a
5-bit Key Data field, and the 1-bit Clock Monitor Select field.
Table 17
shows the WDSVR register.

The lower limit of the service window is fixed at 2048 instruction cycles. Bits 7 and 6 of the WDSVR register allow the
user to pick an upper limit of the service window.
Table18
shows the four possible combinations of lower and
upper limits for the WATCHDOG service window. This flexibility in choosing the WATCHDOG service window prevents
any undue burden on the user software.

Bits 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 of the WDSVR register represent the

(1/t
) is greater or equal to10 kHz.This equatesto aclock in-
c
put rate on CKI of greater or equal to 100 kHz.
WATCHDOG Operation
The WATCHDOG and Clock Monitor are disabled during reset. The device comes out of reset with the WATCHDOG
armed, the WATCHDOG Window Select (bits 6, 7 of the
WDSVR Register) set, and the Clock Monitor bit (bit 0 of the
WDSVR Register) enabled. Thus, a Clock Monitor error will
occur after coming out of reset, if the instruction cycle clock
frequency has not reached a minimum specified value, including the case where the oscillator fails to start.
The WDSVR register can be written to only once after reset
and the key data (bits 5 through 1 of the WDSVR Register)
must match to be a valid write.This write to the WDSVR register involves two irrevocable choices: (i) the selection of the
WATCHDOG service window (ii) enabling or disabling of the
Clock Monitor. Hence, the first write to WDSVR Register involves selecting or deselecting the Clock Monitor, select the
WATCHDOG service window and match the WATCHDOG
key data. Subsequent writes to the WDSVR register will
compare the value being written by the user to the WATCHDOG service window value and the key data (bits 7 through
1) in the WDSVR Register.
events that can occur.
The user must service the WATCHDOG at least once before
the upper limit of the service window expires. The WATCHDOG may not be serviced more than once in every lower
limit of the service window. The user may service the
WATCHDOG as many times as wished in thetime period between the lower and upper limits of the service window.The
first write to the WDSVR Register is also counted as a
WATCHDOG service.
The WATCHDOG has an output pin associated with it. This
is the WDOUT pin, on pin 1 of the Port G. WDOUT is active
low.The WDOUT pin is in the high impedance state in the inactive state. Upon triggering the WATCHDOG, the logic will
pull the WDOUT (G1) pin low for an additonal 16 t
cycle after the signal level on WDOUT pin goes below the
lower Schmitt trigger threshold. After this delay, the device
will stop forcing the WDOUT output low.
The WATCHDOG service window will restart when the WDOUT pin goes high. It is recommended that the user tie the
WDOUT pin back to V
WDOUT high.
AWATCHDOG service while the WDOUTsignal is active will
be ignored. The state of the WDOUT pin is not guaranteed
on reset, but if the powers up low then the WATCHDOG will
time out and WDOUT will enter high impedance state.
The Clock Monitor forces the G1 pin low upon detecting a
clock frequency error. The Clock Monitor error will continue
until the clock frequency has reached the minimum specified
value, after which the G1 output will enter the high impedance TRI-STATE mode following 16 t
The Clock Monitor generates a continual Clock Monitor error

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

Addressing Modes
There are ten addressing modes, six for operand addressing
and four for transfer of control.
OPERAND ADDRESSING MODES
Register Indirect
This is the “normal” addressing mode. The operand is the
data memory addressed by the B pointer or X pointer.
Register Indirect (with auto post increment or
decrement of pointer)
This addressing mode is used with the LD and X instructions. The operand is the data memory addressed by the B
pointer or X pointer. This is a register indirect mode that automatically post increments or decrements the B or X register after executing the instruction.
Direct
The instruction contains an 8-bit address field that directly
points to the data memory for the operand.
Immediate
The instruction contains an 8-bit immediate field as the operand.
Short Immediate
This addressing mode is used with the Load B Immediate instruction. The instruction contains a 4-bit immediate field as
the operand.
Indirect
This addressing mode is used with the LAID instruction. The
contents of the accumulator are used as a partial address
(lower 8 bits of PC) for accessing a data operand from the
program memory.
TRANSFER OF CONTROL ADDRESSING MODES
Relative
This mode is used for the JP instruction, with the instruction
field being added to the program counter to get the new program location. JP has a range from −31 to +32 to allow a
1-byte relatie jump (JP + 1 is implemented by a NOP instruction). There are no “pages” when using JP,since all 15bits of
PC are used.
www.national.com65
Page 66
Addressing Modes (Continued)
Absolute
The mode is used with the JMP and JSR instructions, with
the instruction field of 12 bits replacing the lower 12 bits of
the program counter (PC). This allows jumping to any location in the current 4k program memory segment.
Absolute Long
This mode is used with the JMPL and JSRL instructions, with
the instruction field of 15 bits replacing the entire 15 bits of
the program counter (PC). This allows jumping to any location up to 32k in the program memory space.
Indirect
This mode is used with the JID instruction. The contents of
the accumulator are used as apartial address (lower 8 bits of
PC) for accessing a location in the program memory. The
contents of this program memory location serve as a partial
address (lower 8 bits of PC) for the jump to the next instruction.
Note: The VIS is a special case of the Indirect Transfer of Control addressing
mode, where the double byte vector associated with the interrupt is
transferred from adjacent addresses in the program memory into the
program counter (PC) in order to jump to the associated interrupt service routine.

INSTRUCTION EXECUTION TIME
Most instructions are single byte (with immediate addressing
mode instructions taking two bytes).
Most single byte instructions take one cycle time to execute.
Skipped instructions require x number of cycles to be
skipped, where x equals the number of bytes in the skipped
instruction opcode.
See the BYTES and CYCLES per INSTRUCTION table for
details.
Bytes and Cycles per Instruction
The following table shows the number of bytes and cycles for
each instruction in the format of byte/cycle.

Mask Options
The COP684E and COP884EB mask programmable options
are shown below. The options are programmed at the same
time as the ROM pattern submission.
OPTION 1: CLOCK CONFIGURATION
= 1 Crystal Oscillator (CKI/10)
G7 (CKO) is clock generator output to crystal/
resonator
CKI is the clock input
OPTION 2: HALT
= 1 Enable HALT mode
OPTION 3: BONDING OPTIONS
= 1 68-Pin PLCC
= 2 44-Pin PLCC
The chip can be driven by a clock input on the CKI input pin
which can be between DC and 10 MHz. The CKO output
clock is on pin G7. The CKI input frequency is divided down
by 10 to produce the instruction cycle clock (1/t
).
