Preliminary
Accumulator is a 4-bit data register for temporary data. For the arithematic, logic and comparative opertion
.., ACC plays a role which holds the source data and result.
FLAGS
There are four kinds of flag, CF ( Carry flag ), ZF ( Zero flag ), SF ( Status flag ) and GF ( General flag ),
these 4 1-bit flags are affected by the arithematic, logic and comparative .... operation.
All flags will be put into stack when an interrupt subroutine is served, and the flags will be restored after
RTI instruction executed.
(1) Carry Flag ( CF )
The carry flag is affected by following operation:
a. Addition : CF as a carry out indicator, when the addition operation has a carry-out, CF will be "1",
in another word, if the operation has no carry-out, CF will be "0".
b. Subtraction : CF as a borrow-in indicator, when the subtraction operation must has a borrow, in the CF
will be "0", in another word, if no borrow-in, CF will be "1".
c. Comparision: CF is as a borrow-in indicator for Comparision operation as the same as subtraction
operation.
d. Rotation: CF shifts into the empty bit of accumulator for the rotation and holds the shift out data after
rotation.
e. CF test instruction : For TFCFC instruction, the content of CF sends into SF then clear itself "0".
For TTSFC instruction, the content of CF sends into SF then set itself "1".
(2) Zero Flag ( ZF )
ZF is affected by the result of ALU, if the ALU operation generate a "0" result, the ZF will be "1",
otherwise, the ZF will be "0".
(3) Status Flag ( SF )
The SF is affected by instruction operation and system status.
a. SF is initiated to "1" for reset condition.
b. Branch instruction is decided by SF, when SF=1, branch condition will be satisified, otherwise,
branch condition will not be satisified by SF = 0.
(4) General Flag ( GF )
GF is a one bit general purpose register which can be set, clear, test by instruction SGF, CGF and TGS.
PROGRAM EXAMPLE:
Check following arithematic operation for CF, ZF, SF
* This specification are subject to be changed without notice.
The arithematic operation of 4 - bit data is performed in ALU unit. There are 2 flags can be affected by the
result of ALU operation, ZF and SF. The operation of ALU can be affected by CF only.
ALU STRUCTURE
ALU supported user arithematic operation function, including : addition, subtraction and rotaion.
DATA BUS

ALU FUNCTION
(1) Addition:
For instruction ADDAM, ADCAM, ADDM #k, ADD #k,y .... ALU supports addition function.
The addition operation can affect CF and ZF. For addition operation, if the result is "0", ZF will be "1",
otherwise, not equal "0", ZF will be "0". When the addition operation has a carry-out, CF will be "1",
otherwise, CF will be "0".
EXAMPLE:
OperationCarryZero
3+4=700
7+F=610
0+0=001
8+8=011
(2) Subtraction:
For instruction SUBM #k, SUBA #k, SBCAM, DECM... ALU supports user subtraction function. The
subtraction operation can affect CF and ZF, For subtraction operation, if the result is negative, CF will
be "0", it means a borrow out, otherwise, if the result is positive, CF will be "1". For ZF, if the result of
subtraction operation is "0", the ZF will be "1", otherwise, ZF will be "1".
* This specification are subject to be changed without notice.
There are two kinds of rotation operation, one is rotation left, the other is rotation right.
RLCA instruction rotates Acc value to left, shift the CF value into the LSB bit of Acc and the shift out data
will be hold in CF.

The value of 8-bit binary up counter can be presetted by P10 and P11. The value of registers can loaded into
the HTC when the counter starts counting or occurs overflow. If user write value to the registers before the
next overflow occurs, the preset value can be changed.
The preset value will be changed when users output the different data to P10 and P11.
The count value of HTC can be read from P10 and P11. The value is unstable when user read the value during
counting. Thus, user must disable the counter before reading the value.
The P4.0/SOUND and SOUND pins will output the squre wave in the melody mode. When the CPU is not
in the melody mode, the P4.0/SOUND is high and SOUND is low.
The P4.1/RGH pin will be the input pin in the pulse width measurement mode. User must output high to P4.1/

IL0-IL5: Interrupt latch. Hold all interrupt requests from all interrupt sources. ILr can not be
set by program, but can be reset by program or system reset, so IL only can decide
which interrupt source can be accepted.
MASK0-MASK3: Except INT0, MASK register can promit or inhibit all interrupt sources.
EI: Enable interrupt Flip-Flop can promit or inhibit all interrupt sources, when inter-
rupt happened, EI is cleared to "0" automatically, after RTI instruction happened,
EI will be set to "1" again.
Priority checker: Check interrupt priority when multiple interrupts happened.
INTERRUPT FUNCTION
The procedure of interrupt operation:
1. Push PC and all flags to stack.
2. Set interrupt entry address into PC.
3. Set SF= 1.
4. Clear EI to inhibit other interrupts happened.
5. Clear the IL for which interrupt source has already be accepted.
6. To excute interrupt subroutine from the interrupt entry address.
7. CPU accept RTI, restore PC and flags from stack. Set EI to accept other interrupt requests.
Preliminary
PROGRAM EXAMPLE: To enable interrupt of "INT0, TRGA"
EM73469A can directly drive the liquid crystal display (LCD) and has 32 segment, 4 common output pins (1/
2 bias, 1/3 bias). There are total 32x4 dots can be display. The V1, V2, V3, VA, VB, VDD and VSS pins are
the LCD bias generator.
CONTROL OF LCD DRIVER
The LCD driver control command register is P27. When LDC is 0, the LCD is disabled, the COM and SEG
pins are VSS. When LDC is 1, the LCD driver enables.
When the CPU is reseted or during the STOP operation mode, the LCD driver is disabled.
Port27
The LCD display data is stored in the display data area of the data memory (RAM).
The display data area begins with address 20H during reset. The LCD display data area ia as below :
There are six kinds of driving methods can be selected by DUTY (P27.0~P27.2). The drivinf waveforms of
LCD driver are as below :

When CPU in normal working condition and RESET pin holds in low level for three instruction cycles at least,
then CPU begins to initialize the whole internal states, and when RESET pin changes to high level, CPU begins
to work in normal condition.
The CPU internal state during reset condition is as following table :
Hardware condition in RESET stateInitial value
Program counter0000h
Status flag01h
Interrupt enable flip-flop ( EI )00h
MASK0 ,1, 2, 300h

The RESET pin is a hysteresis input pin and it has a pull-up resistor available by mask option.
The simplest RESET circuit is connect RESET pin with a capacitor to V
RESET
and a diode to VDD.
