1.3 General Conventions

Hexadecimal numbers are presented with all letters in uppercase and a lowercase “h” appended or with a 0x at the beginning. For example, 0x14 and 03CAh are hexadecimal numbers. Binary numbers are en­closed in single quotation marks when in text (for example, ‘11’ designates a binary number). Numbers not indicated by an “h,” 0x, or single quotation marks are decimal.
Registers are referred to by acronym, with bits listed in brackets separ ated by a hyphen (- ) (for e xample, CODR[0-7]).
The use of “tbd” indicates values that are “to be determined,” “n/a” designates “not available,” and “n/c” indicates a pin that is a “no connect.”

2. EP7312 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The EP7312 device is a single-chip embedded controller designed to be used in low-cost and ultra-low­power applications. Operating at 74 MHz, the EP7312 delivers approximately 66 Dhrystone 2.1 MIPS of sustained performance (74 MIPS peak). This is approximately the same as a 100 MHz Pentium-based PC.
The EP7312 contains the following functional blocks:
ARM720T processor which consists of the following functional sub-blocks:
- ARM7TDMI CPU core (which supports the l ogic for the Thumb instruction set, core debug, enhanced multiplier, JTAG, and the Embedded ICE) running at a dynamically programmable clock speed of 18 MHz, 36 MHz, 49 MHz, or 74 MHz.
- Memory Management Unit (MMU) compatible with the ARM710 core (providing address translation and a 64-entry translation lookaside buffer) with added support for Windows CE.
- 8 kbytes of unified instruction and data cache with a four-way set associative cache controller.
- Write buffer
48 kbytes (0x9600) of on-chip SRAM that can be shared between the LCD controller and general ap­plication use.
Memory interfaces for up to 6 independent 256 Mbyte expansion segments with programming wait states.
27 bits of general purpose I/O - multiplexed to provide additional functionality where necessary.
Digital Audio Interface (DAI) for connection to CD-quality DACs and CODECs.
Interrupt controller
Advanced system state control and power management.
Two full-duplex 16550A compatible UARTs with 16-byte transmit and receive FIFOs.
IrDA SIR protocol controller capable of speeds up to 115.2 kbits/s.
Programmable 1-, 2-, or 4-bit-per-pixel LCD controller with 16-level grayscaler.
Programmable frame buffer start address, allowing a system to be built using only internal SRAM for memory.
On-chip boot ROM programmed with serial load boot sequence.
Two 16-bit general purpose timer counters.
A 32-bit Real Time Clock (RTC) and comparator.
Dedicated LED flasher pin driven from the RTC with programmable duty ratio (multiplexed with a GPIO pin).
Two synchronous serial interfaces for Micro-wire or SPI periphera ls such as ADCs, one supporting both the master and slave mode and the other supporting only the master mode.
Full JTAG boundary scan and Embedded ICE support.
Two programmable pulse-width modulation interfaces.
An interface to one or two Cirrus Logic CL-PS6700 PC Card controller devices to support two PC Card slots.

2.1 CPU Core

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

2.2 State Control

The EP7312 supports the following Power Management States: Operating, Idle, and Standby (see Figure 2). The normal program execution state is the Operating State; this is a full performance state where all of the clocks and peripheral logic are enabled. The Idle State is the same as the Operating State except that the CPU clock is halte d. An interrupt from an external interrupt source or from the real-ti me clock will return it back to the Operating State. The WAKEUP signal can only be used to exit the Standby State, not the Idle State. The Standby State has the lowest power consumption of the three states. By selecting this mode the main oscillator shuts down, leaving only the Real Time Clock and its associated logic powered. It is important when the EP7312 is in Standby that all power and ground pins remain connected to power and ground in order to have a proper system wake-up. The only state that Standby can transition to is the Operating State.
In the description below, the RUN/CLKEN pin can be used either for the RUN functionality, or the CLK­EN functionality to allow an external oscillator t o be disabled in the 13 MHz mode. Either RUN or CLKEN functionality can be selected according to the state of the CLKENSL bit in the SYSCON2 register . T able 4 on page 16 on the following page shows peripheral status in various power management states.
2.2.1 Standby State
The Standby State equates to the system being switched “off” (i.e., no display, and the main oscillator is shut down). When the 18.432–73.72 MHz mode is selected, the PLL will be shut down. In the 13 MHz mode, if the CLKENSL bit is set low, then the CLKEN signal will be forced low and can, if required, be used to disable an external oscillator.
In the Standby State, all the system memory and state is maintained and the system time is kept up-to-date. The PLL-on-chip oscillator or external oscilla tor is disabled and the system is static, exce pt for the low power watch crystal (32 kHz) oscillator and divider chain to the RTC and LED flasher. The RUN signal is driven low , therefore this signal can be used externally in the system to power down other system modules.
Whenever the EP7312 is in the Standby State, the external address and data buses are forced low internally by the RUN signal. This is done to prevent peripherals that are powered down from draining current. Also, the internal peripheral’s signals get set to their Reset State.

When first powered, or reset by the nPOR (Power On Reset, active low) signal, the EP7312 is forced into the Standby State. This is known as a cold reset, and when leaving the Standby State after a cold reset, external wake up is the only way to wake up the device. Whe n leaving the Standby State after non-cold reset conditions (i.e., the software has forced the device into the Standby State), the transition to the Oper­ating State can be caused by a rising edge on the WAKEUP input signal or by an enabled interrupt. Nor­mally, when entering the Standby State from the Operating State, the software will leave some interrupt sources enabled.
Note: The CPU cannot be awakened by the TINT, WEINT, and BLINT interrupts when in the Standby State.

Typically, software writes to the Standby internal memory location to cause the transition from the Oper­ating State to the Standby S tate. Before entering the Standby S tate, if external I/O devices (such as the CL­PS6700s connected to nCS[4] or nCS[5]) are in use, the software must c heck to ensure that they are idle before issuing the write to the Standby State location.
Before entering the Standby State, the software must properly disable the DAI. Failing to do so wil l result in higher than expected power consumption in the Standby S tate, as well as unpredictable operation of the DAI. The DAI can be re-enabled after transitioning back to the Operating State.
The system can also be forced into the Standby State by hardware if the nPWRF L or nURESET inputs are forced low. The only exit from the Standby State is to the Operating State.
The system will only transition to the Operating State from the Standby State under the following condi­tions: when the nPWRFL input pin is high when the nEXTPWR input pin is low or when the BATOK input pin is high. This prevents the system from starting when the power supply is inadequate (i.e., the main bat­teries are low), corresponding to a low level on nPWRFL or BATOK.
From the Standby State, if the WAKEUP signal is applied with no clock except the 32 kHz clock running, the EP7312 will be initialized into a state where it is ready to start and is waiting for the CPU to start re­ceiving its clock. The CPU will still be held in reset at this point. Aft er the first clock is applied, there will be a delay of about eight clock cycles before the CPU is enabled. This delay is to allow the clock to the CPU time to settle.
2.2.1.1 UART in Standby State
During the Standby State, the UARTs are disabled and cannot detect any activity (i.e., start bit) on the re­ceiver . If this functional ity is required then this can be accomplished i n software by the following method:
1) Permanently connect the RX pin to one of the active low external interrupt pins.
2) Ensure that on entry to the Standby State, the chosen interrupt source is not masked, and the UART is enabled.
3) Send a preamble that consists of one start bit, 8 bits of zero, and one stop bit. This will cause the EP7312 to wake and execute the enabled interrupt vector.
The UART will automatically be re-enabled when the processor re-enters the Operating State, and the pre­amble will be received. Since the UART was not awake at the start of the preamble, the timing of the sam­ple point will be off-center during the preamble byte. However, the next byte transmitted will be correctly aligned. Thus, the actual first real byte to be received by the UART will get captured correctly.
2.2.2 Idle State
If in the Operating State, the Idle State can be entered by writing to a special internal memory location (HALT) in the EP7312. If an interrupt occurs, the EP7312 will return immediately back to the Operating State and execute the next instruction. The WAKEUP signal can not be used to exit the Idle State. It is only used to exit the Standby State.
DS508UM1 17
Page 17
In the Idle State, the device functions just like it does when in the Operating State. However , the CPU clock is halted while it waits for an event such as a key press to generate an interrupt. The PLL (in
18.432–73.728 MHz mode) or the external 13 MHz clock source always remains active in the Idle State.
2.2.3 Keyboard Interrupt
For the case of the keyboard interrupt, the following options are available and are selectable according to bits 1 and 3 of the SYSCON2 register (refer to the SYSCON2 Register Description for details).
If the KBWEN bit (SYSCON2 bit 3) is set low, then a keypress will cause a transition from a power saving state only if the keyboard interrupt is non-masked (i.e., the interrupt mask register 2 (INTMR2 bit 0) is high).
When KBWEN is high, a keypress will cause the device to wake up regardless of the state of the inter­rupt mask register. This is called the “Keyboard Direct Wakeup” mode. In this mode, the interrupt re­quest may not get serviced. If the interrupt is masked (i.e., the interrupt mask register 2 (INTMR2 bit
0) is low), the processor simply starts re-executing code from where it left off before it entered the pow­er saving state. If the interrupt is non-masked, then the processor will service the interrupt.
When the KBD6 bit (SYSCON2 bit 1) is low, all 8 of Port A inputs are OR’ed together to produce the internal wakeup signal and keyboard interrupt request. This is the default reset state.
When the KBD6 bit (SYSCON2 bit 1) is high, only the lowest 6 bits of Port A are OR’ed together to produce the internal wakeup signal and keyboard interrupt request. The two most significant bits of Port A are available as GPIO when this bit is set high.
In the case where KBWEN is low and the INTMR2 bit 0 is low, it will only be possible to wakeup the device by using the external WAKEUP pin or another enabled interrupt source. The keyboard interrupt ca­pability allows an OS to use either a polled or interrupt-driven keyboard routine, or a combination of both.
Note: The keyboard interrupt is NOT debounced.

2.3 Power-Up Sequence

The EP7312 has a power-up sequence that should be followed for proper start up. If any of the recommend­ed timing sequences below are violated, then it is possible that the part may not start-up properly. This could cause the device to get lost and not recover without a hard reset.
1) Upon power, the signal nPOR must be held active (LOW) for a minimum of 100 ms, af ter VDD has become settled.
2) After nPOR goes HIGH, the EP7312 will enter the Standby State (and only this state). In this state, the PLL is not enabled, and thus the CPU is not enabled either. The only method that can be used to allow the EP7312 to exit the Standby State into the Operating State is by the WAKEUP signal going active (HIGH).
Note: Do not assert the nURESET signal before the processor goes into Operating State. This is due to the fact
that nURESET is latched into the device by the rising edge of nPOR. When nURESET is LOW on the rising edge of nPOR, it can force the device into one of its Test Mode states.
18 DS508UM1
Page 18
1) After nPOR goes HIGH, the WAKEUP signal cannot be detected as going HI GH, until after at least two seconds. After two seconds, the WAKEUP signal can become active, and it must be HIGH for at least 125 ms.
2) After the WAKEUP signal is detected internally, it first goes through a deglitching circuit. This is why is must be active for at least 125 ms. Then the PLL ge ts enabled. WAKEUP is ignored immediately after waking up the system. It also ignores it while in the Idle or Operating State. It can constantly tog­gle with no affect on the device. It will only be rea d again i f nPOR goe s low and the n high again, or if software has forced the device back into the Standby State.
3) A maximum of 250 ms will pass before the CPU becomes enabled and starts to fetch the first instruc­tion.

2.4 Resets

There are three asynchronous resets to the EP7312: nPOR, nPWRFL, and nURESET. If any of these are active, a system reset is generated internally. This will reset all internal registers in the EP7312 except the RTC data and match registers. These registers are only cleared by nPOR allowing the system time to be preserved through a user reset or power fail condition.
Any reset will also reset the CPU and cause it to start execution at the reset vector when the EP7312 returns to the Operating State.
Internal to the EP7312, three different signals are used to reset storage elements. These are nPOR, nSYSRES and nSTBY. nPOR is an external signal. nSTBY is equivalent to the external RUN signal.
nPOR (Power On Reset, active low) is the highe st pri ori ty rese t signal. W hen a ctive (l ow), it will rese t all storage elements in the EP7312. nPOR active forces nSYSRES and nSTBY active. nPOR will only be ac­tive after the EP7312 is first powered up and not during any other resets. nPOR active will clea r a ll flags in the status register except for the cold reset flag (CLDFLG) bit (SYSFLG, bit 15), which is set.
nSYSRES (System Reset, active low) is generated internally to the EP7312 if nPOR, nPWRFL, or nURE­SET are active. It is the second highest priority reset signal, used to asynchronously reset most internal registers in the EP7312. nSYSRES active forces nSTBY and RUN low. nSYSRES is used to reset the EP7312 and force it into the Standby State with no co-operation from software. The CPU is also reset.
The nSTBY and RUN signals are high when the EP7312 is in the Operating or Idle States and low when in the Standby State. The main system clock is valid when nSTBY is hi gh. The nSTBY signal will disable any peripheral block that is clocked from the master clock source (i.e., everything except for the RTC). In general, a system reset will clear all registers and nSTBY will disable all peripherals that require a main clock. The following peripherals are always disabled by a low level on nSTBY : two UARTs and IrDA SIR encoder, timer counters, telephony CODEC, and the two SSI interfaces. In addition, when in the Standby State, the LCD controller and PWM drive are also disabled.
When operating from an external 13 MHz oscillator which has become disabled in the Standby State by using the CLKEN (SYSCON, bit 13) signal (i.e., with CLKENSL = 0), the oscillator must be stable within
0.125 sec from the rising edge of the CLKEN signal.
DS508UM1 19
Page 19

2.5 Clocks

There are two clocking modes for the EP7312. Either an external cloc k input can be used or the on-chip PLL. The clock source is selected by a strapping option on Port E, pin 2 (PE[2]). If PE[2] is high at the rising edge of nPOR (i.e., upon power-up), the external clock mode is selected. If PE[2] is low, then the on-chip PLL mode is selected. After power-up, PE[2] can be used as a GPIO.
The EP7312 device contains several separate sections of logic, each clocked according to its own clock frequency requirements. When the EP7312 is in external clock mode, the actual frequencies at the periph­erals will be different than when in PLL mode. See each peripheral device section for more details. The section below describes the clocking for both the ARM720T and address/data bus.
2.5.1 On-Chip PLL
The ARM720T clock can be programmed to 18.432 MHz, 36.864 MHz, 49.152 MHz, or 73.728 MHz with the PLL running at twice the highest possible CPU clock frequency ( 147.456 MHz). The PLL uses an external 3.6864 MHz crystal. By chip default, the on-chip PLL is used and configured such that the ARM720T and address/data buses run at 18.432 MHz.
When the clock frequency is selected to be 36 MHz , both the ARM720T and the address/data buses ar e clocked at 36 MHz. When the clock frequency is selected higher than 36 MHz, only the ARM720T gets clocked at this higher speed. The address/data will be fixed at 36 MHz. The cl ock frequency used is select­ed by programming the CLKCTL[1:0] bits in the SYSCON3 register. The clock frequency selection does not effect the EPB (external peripheral bus). Therefore, all the peripheral clocks are fixed, regardless of the clock speed selected for the ARM720T.
Note: After modifying the CLKCTL[1:0] bits, the next instruction should always be a “NOP.”
2.5.1.1 Characteristics of the PLL Interface
When connecting a crystal to the on-chip PLL interface pins ( i.e. MOSCIN and MOSCOUT) , the crystal and circuit should conform to the following requirements:
The 3.6864 MHz frequency should be created by the crystal’s fundamental tone (i.e., it should be a fun­damental mode crystal).
A start-up resistor is not necessary, since one is provided internally.
Start-up loading capacitors may be placed on each side of the external crystal and ground. Their value should be in the range of 10 pF. However, their values should be selected based upon the crystal spec­ifications. The total sum of the capacitance of the traces between the EP7312’s clock pins, the capaci­tors, and the crystal leads should be subtracted from the crystal’s specifications when determining the values for the loading capacitors.
The crystal should have a maximum 100 ppm frequency drift over the chip’s operating temperature range.
Alternatively, a digital clock source can be used to drive the MOSCIN pin of the EP7312. With this ap­proach, the voltage levels of the clock source should match that of the VDD supply for the EP7312’s pads
20 DS508UM1
Page 20
(i.e. the supply voltage level used to drive all of the non-VDD core pins on the EP7312). The output clock pin (i.e., MOSCOUT) should be left floating.
2.5.2 External Clock Input (13 MHz)
An external 13 MHz crystal oscillator can be used to drive all of the EP7312. When selected the ARM720T and the address/data buses both get clocked at 13 MHz. The fixed clock sources to the various peripherals will have different frequencies than in the P LL mode. In this configuration, the PLL will not be used at all.
Note: When operating at 13 MHz, the CLKCTL[1:0] bits should not be changed from their default value of “00.”

2.5.3 Dynamic Clock Switching When in the PLL Clocking Mode
The clock frequency used for the CPU and the buses is controlled by programming the CLKCTL[1:0] bits in the SYSCON3 register. When this occurs, the state cont roller swit ches fro m the curren t to the new clock frequency as soon as possible without causing a glitch on the clock signals. The glitch-free clock switching logic waits until the clock that is currently in use and the newly programmed clock source are both low, and then switches from the previous clock to the new clock without a glitch on the clocks.

2.6 Interrupt Controller

When unexpected events arise during the execution of a program (i.e., interrupt or memory fault) an e x­ception is usually generated. When these exceptions occur at the same time, a fixed priority system deter­mines the order in which they are handled. Table 5 shows the priority order of all the exceptions.
The EP7312 interrupt controller has two interrupt types: interrupt request (IRQ) and fast interrupt request (FIQ). The interrupt controller has the ability to control interrupts from 22 different FIQ and IRQ source s. Of these, seventeen are mapped to the IRQ input and five sources are mapped to the FIQ input. FIQs have a higher priority than IRQs. If two interrupts are received from within the same group (IRQ or FIQ), the order in which they are serviced must be resolved in software. The priorities are listed in Table 5. All in­terrupts are level sensitive; that is, they must conform to the following sequence.
Priority Exception
Highest Reset
. Data Abort .FIQ .IRQ . Prefetch Abort
Lowest Undefined Instruction,
Software Interrupt
Table 5. Exception Priority Handling
1) The interrupting device (either external or internal) asserts the appropriate interrupt.
2) If the appropriate bit is set in the interrupt mask register, then either a FIQ or an IRQ will be asserted by the interrupt controller. (A description for each bit in this register can be found in Section 6.3.1 INTSR1 — Interrupt Status Register 1.
3) If interrupts are enabled the processor will jump to the appropriate address.
4) Interrupt dispatch software reads the interrupt status register to establish the source(s) of the interrupt and calls the appropriate interrupt service routine(s).
5) Software in the interrupt service routine will clear the interrupt source by some action specific to the device requesting the interrupt (i.e., reading the UART RX register).
22 DS508UM1
Page 22
The interrupt service routine may then re-enable interrupts, and any other pending interrupts will be ser­viced in a similar way. Alternately, it may return to the interrupt dispatch code, which can check for any
more pending interrupts and dispatch them accordingly. The “End of Interrupt” type interrupts are latched. All other interrupt sources (i.e., external interrupt source) must be held active until its respective service routine starts executing. See “End Of Interrupt Locations” for more details.

2.6.1 Interrupt Latencies in Different States
2.6.1.1 Operating State
The ARM720T processor checks for a low level on its FIQ and IRQ inputs at the end of each instruction. The interrupt latency is therefore directly related to the amount of time it takes to complete execution of the current instruction when the interrupt condition is detected. First, there is a one to two clock cycle syn­chronization penalty . For the case where the EP7312 is operating at 13 MHz with a 16-bit external memory system, and instruction sequence stored in one wait state FLASH memory , the worst-case interrupt latency is 251 clock cycles. This includes a delay for cache line fills for instruction prefetches, and a data abort occurring at the end of the LDM instruction, and the LDM being non-quad word aligned. In addition, the worst-case interrupt latency assumes that LCD DMA cycles to support a panel size of 320 x 240 at 4 bits­per-pixel, 60 Hz refresh rate, is in progress.
This would give a worst-case interrupt latency of about 19.3 µs for the ARM720T processor operating at 13 MHz in this system. For those interrupt inputs which have de-glitching, this figure is increased by the maximum time required to pass through the deglitcher, which is approximately 125 µs (2 cycle of the
16.384 kHz clock derived from the RTC oscillator). This would create an absolute worst-case latency of
approximately 141 µs. If the ARM720T is run at 36 MHz or greater and/or 32 bit wide external memory, the 19.3 µs value will be reduced.
All the serial data transfer peripherals included in the EP7312 (except for the master-only SS I1) have local buffering to ensure a reasonable interrupt latency response requirement for the OS of 1 ms or less. This assumes that the design data rates do not exceed the data rates described in this specification. If the OS cannot meet this requirement, there will be a risk of data over/underflow occurring.
2.6.1.2 Idle State
When leaving the Idle State as a result of an interrupt, the CPU clock is restarted after approximately two clock cycles. However, there is still potentially up to 20 µs latency as described in the first section above, unless the code is writte n to include at l east two single cycle in structions immediat ely after the wri te to the IDLE register (in which case the latency drops to a few microseconds).
This is important, as the Idle State can only be left because of a pending interrupt, which has to be syn­chronized by the processor before it can be serviced.
2.6.1.3 Standby State
The Standby State equates to the system being switched “off” (i.e., no display, and the main oscillator is shut down). When the 18.432–73.72 MHz mode is selected, the PLL will be shut down. In the 13 MHz mode, if the CLKENSL bit is set low, then the CLKEN signal will be forced low and can, if required, be used to disable an external oscillator.
In the Standby State, all the system memory and state is maintained and the system time is kept up-to-date. The PLL/on-chip oscillator or external oscillator is disabled and the system is static, except for the low­power watch crystal (32 kHz) oscillator and divider chain to the RTC and LED flasher. The RUN signal is driven low, therefore this signal can be used externally in the system to power down other system mod­ules.
24 DS508UM1
Page 24
Whenever the EP7312 is in the Standby S tate, the external address and data buses are driven low . The RUN signal is used internally to force these buses to be driven low. This is done to prevent peripherals that are power-down from draining current.
Also, the internal peripheral’s signals get set to their Reset State. T able 9 summarizes the five external interrupt sources and the effect they have on the processor interrupts.

The 128 bytes of on-chip Boot ROM contain an instruction sequence that initializes the device and then configures UART1 to receive 2048 bytes of serial data that will then be placed in the on-chip SRAM. Once the download is complete, execution jumps to the start of the on-chip SRAM. This would allow, for exam-
ple, code to be downloaded to program system FLASH during a product’ s manufacturing process. See Ap­pendix A: Boot Code for details of the ROM Boot Code with comments to describe the stages of execution.
Selection of the Boot ROM option is determined by the state of the nMEDCHG pin during a power on reset. If nMEDCHG is high while nPOR is active, then the EP7312 will boot from an external memory device connected to CS[0] (normal boot mode). If nMEDCHG is low, then the boot will be from the on­chip ROM. Note that in both cases, following the de-assertion of power on reset, the EP7312 will be in the Standby State and requires a low-to-high transition on the external WAKEUP pin in order to actually start the boot sequence.
The effect of booting from the on-chip Boot ROM is to reverse the decoding for all chip selects internally. T able 10 shows this decoding. The control signal for the boot option is latched by nPOR, which means that the remapping of addresses and bus widths will continue to apply until nPOR is asserted again. After boot­ing from the Boot ROM, the contents of the Boot ROM can be read back from address 0x0000.0000 on­wards, and in normal state of operation the Boot ROM contents can be read back from address range 0x7000.0000.

2.8 Memory and I/O Expansion Interface

Six separate linear memory or expansion segments ar e decoded by the EP7312, two of which can be re­served for two PC Card cards, each interfacing to a separate single CL-PS6700 device. Each segment is
256 Mbytes in size. Two additional segments (i.e., in addition to these six) are dedicated to the on-chip SRAM and the on-chip ROM. The on-chip ROM space and the SRAM space are fully decoded. Beyond this address range the SRAM space is not fully decoded (i.e., any accesses be yond 128 kbyte range get wrapped around to within 128 kbyte range). Any of the six segments are configured to interface to a con­ventional SRAM-like interface, and can be individually programmed to be 8-, 16-, or 32-bits wide, to sup­port page mode access, and to execute from 1 to 8 wait states for non-sequential accesses and 0 to 3 for burst mode accesses. The zero wait state sequential access feature is designed to support burst mode ROMs. For writable memory devices which use the nMWE pin, zero wait state sequential accesses are not permitted and one wait state is the minimum which should be programmed in the sequential field of the appropriate MEMCFG register. Bus cycles can also be extended using the EXPRDY input signal.
Page mode access is accomplished by setting SQAEN = 1, which enables accesses of the form one random address followed by three sequential addresses, etc., while keeping nCS asserted. These sequential bursts can be up to four words long before nCS is released to allow DMA and refreshes to take place. This can significantly improve bus bandwidth to devices such as ROMs which support page mode. When SQAEN = 0, all accesses to memory are by random access without nCS being de-asserted between accesses. Again nCS is de-asserted after four consecutive accesses to allow DMAS.
Bits 5 and 6 of the SYSCON2 register independently enable the interfaces to the CL-PS6700 (PC Card slot drivers). When either of these interfaces are enabled, the corresponding chip select (nCS[4] and/or nCS[5]) becomes dedicated to that CL-PS6700 interface. The state of SYSCON2 bit 5 determines the function of chip select nCS[4] (i.e., CL-PS6700 interface or standard chip select functionality); bit 6 controls nCS[5] in a similar way. There is no interaction between these bits.
For applications that require a display buffer smaller than 48 kbytes, the on-chip SRAM can be used as the frame buffer.
The width of the boot device can be chosen by selecting values of PE[1] and PE[0] during power on reset. The inputs in Table 11 are latched by the rising edge of nPOR to select the boot option.

2.9 SDRAM Controller

The SDRAM controller in the EP7312 provides all the signals to directly interface to up to four internal banks of SDRAM, and the width of the memory interface is progr ammable f rom 16- to 32-bits wide. All internal banks have to be of the same width. The four internal banks that are supported c an total together no more than 256 Mbits in size. The signals nS DRAS nSDCAS, and nWE are provided for SDRAM. Two chip selects are provided for supporting up to 2 rows of SDRAMs. The SDRAM devices are put into self­refresh mode when the EP7312 SDRAM controller is put into standby The SDRAM clock is halted as well.
The controller supports read, write, refresh, prec harge, and mode register write requests to the SDRAM. Data is transferred to and from the SDRAM as unbroken quad accesses (either quad word or for 16-bit memory , quad halfword), which is a convenient data packet size for the ARM cache line fills. For the CPU to read smaller than a quad access, the SDRAM controller will discard the extra data. For CPU writes smaller than a quad access, the SDQM pins (SDRAM data byte mask selects) are used to force the SDRAMs to ignore invalid data. For CPU access sizes larger than a quad access, multiple quad accesses are issued to the SDRAM.
The SDRAM controller can access a total memory size of 2-64 Mbytes. Each individual SDRAM should be NEC or compatible SDRAM memory in sizes of 16-256 Mbits, arranged as shown in Table 12 on page 29 and Table 13 on page 30.
The chip selects for the SDRAM devices in row 1 should be connected to nSDCS[0]. For row configura­tions, those in row2 should be connected to nSDCS[1].
For 32-bit memory access, four SDQM data byte mask selects are provided by the EP7312 to control in­dividual byte lanes within each row. For 16-bit memory access only, SDQM[0-1] are used. For a 32-bit memory access configuration with each row containing two 16-bit wide SDRAMs, the high order SDRAM should have UDQM (upper SDQM) connected to SDQM[3] and LDQM (lower SDQM) connected to SDQM[2]. The low order SDRAM follows the same convention: UDQM is connected to SDQM[1], and LDQM is connected to SDQM[0].
Memory address line multiplexing is done internally so that the address mapping is contiguous. Ta ble 14 on page 31 indicates how the SDRAM address pins are connected to the EP7312 address pins. Note that small SDRAM devices will not use all of these pins. For example, A12-A11 m ay not be required. However, the bank select pins BA[0-1], are required by all SDRAMs. Smaller devices may only have one bank, so BA1 may not be needed.

2.10 SDRAM Initialization

The SDRAM is initialized in the power-on sequence as follows:
1) To stabilize internal circuits when power is applied, a 200 ms pause (or longer) must precede any signal toggling.
2) After the pause, all banks must be precharged using the Precharge command (includes the precharge all banks command).
3) Once the precharge is complete, and the minimum tRP is satisfied, the mode register can be pro­grammed. After the mode register set cycle, tRSC (2 CLK minimum) pause must be satisfied as well. (Only required for NEC SDRAM)
4) Eight or more refresh cycles must be performed.

2.11 CL-PS6700 PC Card Controller Interface

T wo of the expans ion memory areas are dedicated to supporting up to two CL-PS6700 PC Card controller devices. These are selected by nCS[4] and nCS[5] (must first be enabled by bits 5 and 6 of SYSCON2). For efficient, low power operation, both address and data are carried on the lower 16 bits of the EP7312 data bus.
Accesses are initiated by a write or r ead from the area of memory allocate d for nCS[4] or nCS[5]. The memory map within each of these areas is segmented to allow different types of PC Card accesses to take place, for attribute, I/O, and common memory space. The CL-PS6700 internal registers are memory mapped within the address space as shown in Table 15.
Note: Due to the operating speed of the CL-PS6700, this interface is supported only for processor speeds of
13 and 18 MHz.
A complete description of the protocol and AC timing characteristics can be found in the CL-PS6700 data sheet. A transaction is initiated by an access to t he nC S[4] or nCS[5] area . The chi p sel ect is a sserted, a nd on the first clock, the upper 10 bits of the PC Card address, along with 6 bits of size, space, and slot infor-
mation are put out onto the lower 16 bits of the EP7312’ s data bus. Only word (i.e., 4-byte) and single-byte accesses are supported, and the slot field is hardcoded to 11, since the slot field is defined as a “Reserved field” by the CL-PS6700. The chip selects are used to select the device to be a cce ssed. The space field is made directly from the A26 and A27 CPU address bits, according to the decode shown in Table 16 on page 33. The size field is forced to 11 if a word access is required, or to 00 if a byte access is required. This avoids the need to configure the interface after a reset. On the second clock cycle, the remaining 16 bits of the PC Card address are multiplexed out onto the lower 16 bits of the data bus. If the transaction selected is a CL-PS6700 register transaction, or a write to the PC Card (assuming there is space available in the CL­PS6700’s internal write buffer) then the access will continue on the following two clock cycles. During these following two clock cycles the upper and lower halves of the word to be read or written will be put onto the lower 16 bits of the main data bus.
The “ptype” signal on the CL-PS6700s should be connected to the EP7312’s WRITE output pin. During PC Card accesses, the polarity of this pin changes, and it becomes low to signify a write and high to signify a read. It is valid with the first half word of the address. During the second half word of the address, it is always forced high to indicate to the CL-PS6700 that the EP7312 has initiated either the write or read.

Table 16. Space Field Decoding
The PRDY signals from each of the two CL-PS6700 devices are connected to Port B bits 0 and 1, respec­tively. When the PC CARD1 or PC CARD2 control bits in the SYSCON2 register are de-asserted, these port bits are available for GPIO. When asserted, these port bits are used as the PRDY signals. When the PRDY signal is de-asserted (i.e., low), it indicates that the CL-PS6700 is busy accessing its ca rd. If a PC
CARD access is attempted while the device is busy, the PRDY signal will cause the EP7312’s CPU to be stalled. The EP7312’ s CPU will have to wait for the card to become available. DMA transfers to the LCD can still continue in the background during this period of time (as described below). The EP7312 can ac­cess the registers in the CL-PS6700, regardless of the state of the PRDY signal. If the EP7312 needs to access the PC CARD via the CL-PS6700, it waits until the PRDY signal is high before initiating a transfer request. Once a request is sent, the PRDY signal indicates if data is available.
In the case of a PC Card write, writes can be posted to the CL-PS6700 device, with the same timing as CL­PS6700 internal register writes. Writes will normally be com pleted by the CL-PS6700 device independent of the EP7312 processor activity . If a posted write times out, or fails to complete for any other reason, then the CL-PS6700 will issue an interrupt (i.e., a WR_FAIL interrupt). In the case where the CL-PS6700 write buffer is already full, the PRDY signal will be de-asserted (i.e., dr iven low) and the transaction will be stalled pending an available slot in the buf fer. In this case, the EP7312’s CPU will be stal led until the write can be posted successfully. While the PRDY signal is de-asserted, the chip select to the CL-PS6700 will be de-asserted and the main bus will be released so that DMA transfers to the LCD controller can continue in the background.
In the case of a PC Card read, the PRDY signal from the CL-PS6700 will be de-asserted until the read data is ready . At this point, it will be re asserted and the access will be complete d in the same way as for a register access. In the case of a byte access, only one 16-bit data transfer will be required to complete the access. While the PRDY signal is de-asserted, the chip select to the CL-PS6700 will be de-asserted, and the main bus will be released so that DMA transfers to the LCD controller can continue in the background.
The EP7312 will re-arbitrate for control of the bus when the PRDY signal is reasserted to indicate that the read or write transaction can be completed. The CPU will always be stalled until the PC Card access is completed.
DS508UM1 33
Page 33
A card read operation may be split into a request cy cle and a data cycle, or it may be com bined into a single request/data transfer cycle. This depends on whether the data requested from the card is ava ilable in the prefetch buffer (internal to the CL-PS6700).
The request portion of the cycle, for a card read, is similar to the request phase for a card write (described above). If the requested data is available in the prefetch buffer, the CL-PS6700 asserts the PRDY signal before the rising edge of the third clock and the EP7312 continues the cycle to read the data. Otherwise, the PRDY signal is de-asserted, and the request cycle is stalled. The EP7312 may then allow the DMA address generator to gain control of the bus, to allow LCD refreshes to continue. When the CL-PS6700 is ready with the data, it asserts the PRDY signal. The EP7312 then arbitrates for the bus and, once the re ­quest is granted, the suspended read cycle is resumed. The EP7312 resumes the cycle by asserting the ap­propriate chip select, and data is transferred on the next two clocks if a word read (one clock if a byte read).
There is no support within the EP7312 for detecting time-outs. The CL-PS6700 device must be pro­grammed to force the cycle to be c ompl eted (with invalid dat a for a re ad) and then ge nerate a n inte rrup t if a read or write access has timed out (i.e., RD_FAIL or WR_FAIL interrupt). The system software can then determine which access was not successfully completed by reading the status registers within the CL­PS6700.
The CL-PS6700 has support for DMA data transfers. However, DMA i s supported only by software emu­lation because the DMA address generator built into the EP7312 is dedicated to the LCD controller inter­face. If DMA is enabled within the CL-PS6700, it will assert its PDREQ signal to make a DMA request.
This can be connected to one of the EP7312’s external interrupts and be used to interrupt the CPU so that the software can service the DMA request under program control.
Each of the CL-PS6700 devices can generate an interrupt PIRQ. Since the PIRQ signal is an open drain on the CL-PS6700 devices, two CL-PS6700 devices may be wired OR’ed to the same interrupt. The circuit can then be connected to one of the EP7312’s active low external interrupt sources. On the receipt of an interrupt, the CPU can read the interrupt status registers on the CL-PS6700 devices to determine the cause of the interrupt.
All transactions are synchronized to the EXPCLK output from the EP7312 in 18.432 MHz mode or the external 13 MHz clock. The EXPCLK should be permanently enabled, by setting the EXCKEN bit in the SYSCON1 register, when the CL-PS 6700 is used. The reason for this is that the PC Card interface and CL­PS6700 internal write buffers need to be clocked after the EP7312 has completed its bus cycles.
A GPIO signal from the EP7312 can be connected to the PSLEEP pin of the CL-PS6700 devices to allow them to be put into a power saving state before the EP7312 enters the Standby State. It is essential that the software monitor the appropriate status registers within the CL-PS6700s to ensure that there are no pend­ing posted bus transactions before the Standby State is entered. Failure to do this will result in incomplete PC Card accesses.

2.12 Serial Interfaces

In addition to the two UARTs, the EP7312 offers the following serial interfaces shown in Table 17. The inputs / outputs of three of the serial interfaces (DAI, CODEC, and SSI2) are multiplexed onto a single set of external interface pins. If the DAISEL bit of SYSCON3 is low, then either SSI2 or the CODEC interface will be selected to connect to the external pins. When bit 0 of SYSCON2 (SERSEL) is high, then the CO­DEC is connected to the external pins, when low the master / slave SSI2 is connected to these pins. When the DAISEL bit is set high, the DAI interface is connected to the external pins. On power up, both the DA­ISEL and SERSEL bits are reset low , thus the master / slave SSI2 will be connected to these pins (and con­figured for slave mode operation to avoid external drive clashes).
The unique internal names given in Table 17 to each of the serial interfaces will be used to describe each interface.
Pin definition information for the three multiplexed serial interfaces (SSI2, DAI, and CODEC) and the ADC interface is described in Table 18.

2.13 CODEC Sound Interface

The CODEC interface allows direct connection of a telephony type CODEC to the EP7312. It provides all the necessary clocks and timing pulses. It also performs a parallel to serial conversion or vice versa on the data stream to or from the external CODEC device. The interface is full duplex and contains two separate data FIFOs (16 deep by 8-bits wide, one for the receive data, another for the transmit data).
Data is transferred to or from the CODEC at 64 kbits/s. The data is either written to or read from the ap­propriate 16-byte FIFO. If enabled, a CODEC interrupt (CSINT) will be generated after every 8 bytes are transferred (FIFO half full/empty). This means the interrupt rate will be every 1 msec, with a latency of 1msec.
Transmit and receive modes are enabled by asserting high both the CDENRX and CDENTX CODEC en­able bits in the SYSCON1 register.
Note: Both the CDENRX and CDENTX enable bits should be asserted in tandem for data to be transmitted or
received. The reason for this is that the interrupt generation will occur 1 msec after one of the FIFOs is enabled. For example: If the receive FIFO gets enabled first and the transmit FIFO at a later time, the interrupt will occur 1 msec after the receive FIFO is enabled. After the first interrupt occurs, the receive FIFO will be half full. However, it will not be possible to know how full the transmit FIFO will be since it was enabled at a later time. Thus, it is possible to unintentionally overwrite data already in the transmit FIFO (See Figure 5 on page 37).
After the CDENRX and CDENTX enable bits get asserted, the corresponding FIFOs become enabled. When both FIFOs are disabled, the FIFO status flag CRXFE is set and CTXFF is cleared so that the FIFOs appear empty. Additionally, if the CDENTX bit is low, the PCMOUT output is disabled. Asserting either of the two enable bits causes the sync and interrupt generation logic to become active; otherwise they are disabled to conserve power.
Data is loaded into the transmit FIFO by writing to the CODR register . At the begi nning of a transmit cycle, this data is loaded into a shift/load register. Just prior to the byte being transferred out, PCMSYNC goes high for one PCMCLK cycle. Then the dat a is shifted out seri ally to P CMOUT, MSB first, (with the MSB valid at the same time PCMSYNC is asserted). Data is shifted on the rising edge of the PCMCLK output.
Receiving of data is performed by taking data in serially through PCMIN, again MSB first, shifting it through the shift/load register and loading the complete byte into the receive F IFO. If there is no data avail­able in the transmit FIFO, then a zero will be loaded into the shift/load register. I nput data is sampled on the falling edge of PCMCLK. Data is read from the CODR register.

2.14 Endianness

The EP7312 uses a little endian configuration for internal registers. However, it is possible to connect the device to a big endian external memory system. The big-endian / little-endian bit in the ARM720T control register sets whether the EP7312 treats words in memory as being stored in big endian or little endian for­mat. Memory is viewed as a linear collection of bytes numbered upwards from zero. Bytes 0 to 3 hold the first stored word, bytes 4 to 7 the second, and so on. In the little endian scheme, the lowest numbered byte in a word is considered to be the least significant byte of the word and the highest numbered byte is the most significant. Byte 0 of the memory system should be connected to data lines 7 through 0 (D[7:0]) in this scheme. In the big endian scheme the most significant byte of a word is stored at the lowest numbered byte, and the least significant byte is stored at the highest numbered byte. Therefore, byte 0 of the memory system should be connected to data lines 31 through 24 (D[31:24]). Load and store are the only instructions affected by the Endianness.
Table 19 on page 38 and Table 20 on page 38 demonstrate the behavior of the EP7312 in big and little en­dian mode, including the effect of performing non-aligned word accesses. The register definition section of this specification defines the behavior of the internal EP7312 registers in the big endian mode in more detail. For further information, refer to ARM Application Note 61, Big and Little Endian Byte Addressing.

2.15 Internal UARTs (Two) and SIR Encoder

The EP7312 contains two built-in UARTs that offers similar functionality to National Semiconductor’s 16C550A device. Both UARTs can support bit rates of up to 115.2 kbits/s and include two 16-byte FIFOs: one for receive and one for transmit.
One of the UARTs (UART1) supports the three modem control input signals CTS, DSR, and DCD. The additional RI input, and RTS and DTR output modem control lines are not explicitly supported but can be implemented using GPIO ports in the EP7312. UART2 has only the RX and TX pins.
UART operation and line speeds are controlled by the UBLCR1 (UART bit rate and line control). Three interrupts can be generated by UART1: RX, TX, and modem status interrupts. Only two can be generated by UART2: RX and TX. The RX interrupt is asserted when the RX F IFO becomes half full or if the FIFO is non-empty for longer than three character length times with no more characters being received. The TX interrupt is asserted if the TX FIFO buffer reaches half empty. The modem status interrupt for UART1 is generated if any of the modem status bits change state. Framing and parity errors are detected as each byte is received and pushed onto the RX FIFO. An overrun error generates an RX interrupt immediately. All error bits can be read from the 11-bit wide data register. The FIFOs can also be programmed to be one byte depth only (i.e., like a conventional 16450 UART with double buffering).
The EP7312 also contains an IrDA (Infrared Data Association) SIR protocol encoder as a post-processing stage on the output of UART1. This encoder can be optionally switched into the TX and RX signals of UAR T1, so that these can be used to drive an infrared interface directly. If the SIR protocol encoder is en­abled, the UART TXD1 line is held in the passive state and transitions of the RXD1 line will have no effect. The IrDA output pin is LEDDRV, and the input from the photodiode is PHDIN. Modem status lines will cause an interrupt (which can be masked) irrespective of whether the SIR interface is being used.
Both the UARTs operate in a similar manner to the industry standard 16C550A. When CTS is deasserted on the UART, the UART does not stop shifting the data. It relies on software to take appropriate action in response to the interrupt generated.
Baud rates supported for both the UARTs are dependent on frequency of operation. When operating from the internal PLL, the interface supports various baud rates from 115.2 kbits/s downwards. The master clock frequency is chosen so that most of the required da ta r ates are obtaina ble e xactly. When operating with a
13.0 MHz external clock source, the baud rates generated will have a slight error, which is less than or
equal to 0.75%. The rates (all measured in kbits/s) obtainable from the 13 MHz clock include: 9.6, 19.2, 38, 58, and 115.2. See UBRLCR1-2 UART1-2 Bit Rate and Line Control Registers for full details of the available bit rates in the 13 MHz mode.

2.15.1 Digital Audio Interface
The DAI interface provides a high quality digital audio connection to DAI compatible audio devices. The DAI is a subset of I2S audio format that is supported by a number of manufacturers.
The DAI interface produces one 128-bit frame at the audio sample frequency using a bit clock and frame sync signal. Digital audio data is transferred, full duplex, via separate transmit and receive data lines. The bit clock frequency is programmable to 64 fs or 128 fs. The sample frequency (fs) is now programmable from 8-48 Khz using either the on-chip PLL(73.728MHz) or the external 11.2896 Mhz clock.
The DAI interfa ce contains separate transmit and receive FIFO’s. The transmit FIFO’s are 8 audio samples
deep and the receive FIFO’s are 12 audio samples deep. DAI programming centers around the selection of the desired sample frequency (fs). The DAI shares the
same output with the CODEC and SSI as shown in Figure 6. All three clocks (MCLK, LRCK, SCLK) be­come a multiple of the selected sample frequency as illustrated in Figure 7 on page 42. Please see T able 22 on page 42 for the MUX programming matrix.

2.15.1.1 DAI Operation
Following reset, the DAI logic is disabled. To enable the DAI, the applications program should first clear the emergency underflow and overflow status bits, which are set following the reset, by writing a 1 to these register bits (in the DAISR register). Next, the DAI control register should be programmed with the desired
mode of operation using a word write. The transmit FIFOs can either be “primed” by writing up to eight 16-bit values each, or can be filled by the normal interrupt service routine which handles the DAI FIFOs. Finally , the FIF Os for each channel must be enabled via writes to DAIDR2. At this point, transmiss ion/re­ception of data begins on the transmit (SDOUT) and receive (SDIN) pins. This is synchronously controlled by either the PLL or the external clock. These fixed frequencies pass through a programmable divider net­work which will create the appropriate values for SCLK, LRCLK, and MCLK for the desired sample fre­quency . Examples of sample frequencies are shown in Table 21. Register DAI64Fs enables/disables the bit clock frequency of 64 fs (and the other features as shown in Figure 7 on page 42), but must be comple­mented by SYSCON3 bit 9 which will enable/disable 128 fs. T o enable one rate, you must disable the oth­er.

2.15.1.2 DAI Frame Format
Each DAI frame is 128 bits long and it comprises one audio sample. Of this 128-bit frame, only 32 bits are used for digital audio data. The remaining bits are output as zeros. The LRCK signal is used as a frame synchronization signal. Each transition of LRCK delineates the left and right halves of an audio sample. When LRCK transitions from high-to-low the next 16 bits make up the right side of an audio sample. When LRCK transitions from low-to-high the next 16 bits make up the left side of an audio sample.

2.15.1.3 DAI Signals
MCLK oversampled clock. Used as an input to the EP7312 for generating the DAI timing. This sig-
nal is also usually used as an input to a DAC/ADC as an oversampled clock. This signal is fixed at 256 times the audio sample frequency.
SCLK bit clock. Used as the bit clock input into the DAC/ADC. This signal is fixed at 128 or
64 times the audio sample frequency.
LRCK Frame sync. Used as a f rame synchroniza tion input to the DAC/ADC. This signal is fixed
at the audio sample frequency. This signal is clocked out on the negative going edge of SCLK.
SDOUT Digital audio data out. Used for sending playback data to a DAC. This signal is clocked out
on the negative going edge of the SCLK output.
SDIN Digital audio input. Used for receiving record data from an ADC. This signal is latched by
the EP7312 on the positive going edge of SCLK.
2.15.2 ADC Interface — Master Mode Only SSI1 (Synchronous Serial Interface)
The first synchronous serial interface allows interfacing to the following peripheral devices:
In the default mode, the device is compatible with the MAXIM MAX148/9 in external clock mode. Similar SPI- or Microwire-compatible devices can be connected directly to the EP7312.
In the extended mode and with negative-edge triggering selected (the ADCCON and ADCCKNSEN bits are set, respectively, in the SYSCON3 register), this device can be interfaced to Analog Devices’ AD7811/12 chip using nADCCS as a common RFS/TFS line.
Other features of the devices, including power management, can be utilized by software and the use of the GPIO pins.

The clock output frequency is programmable and only active during data transmissions to save power. There are four output frequencies selectable, which will be slightly different depending whether the device
is operating in a 13 MHz mode or a 18.432 MHz–73.728 MHz mode (see T able 23). The required frequen­cy is selected by programming the corresponding bits 16 and 17 in the SYSCON1 register. The sample clock (SMPCLK) always runs at twice the frequency of the shift clock (ADCCLK). The output channel is fed by an 8-bit shift register when the ADCCON bit of SYSCON3 is clear. When ADCCON is set, up to 16 bits of configuration command can be sent, as specified in the SYNCIO register. The input channel is captured by a 16-bit shift register. The clock and synchronization pulses are activated by a write to the out­put shift register . During transfers the SSIBUSY (synchronous serial interface busy) bit in the system status flags register is set. When the transfer is complete and valid data is in the 16-bit read shift register, the SSEOTI interrupt is asserted and the SSIBUSY bit is cleared.
An additional sample clock (SMPCLK) can be enabled independently and is set at twice the transfer clock frequency.
This interface has no local buffering capability and is only intended to be used with low bandwidth inter­faces, such as for a touch-screen ADC interface.
2.15.3 Master / Slave SSI2 (Synchronous Serial Interface 2)
A second SPI / Microwire interface with full master / slave capability is provided by the EP7312 data rates in slave mode are theoretically up to 512 kbits/s, full duplex, although continuous operation at this data rate will give an interrupt rate of 2 kHz, which is too fast for many operating systems. This would require a worst-case interrupt response time of less than 0.5 msec and would cause loss of data through TX under­runs and RX overruns.
The interface is fully capable of being clocked at 512 kHz when in slave mode. However, it is anticipated that external hardware will be used to frame the data into packets. T here fore, although the data w ould be transmitted at a rate of 512 kbits/s, the sustained data rate would in fact only be 85.3 kbits/s (i.e., 1 byte every 750 µsec). At this data rate, the required interrupt rate will be greater than 1 msec, which is accept­able.
There are separate half-word-wide RX and TX FIFOs (16 half-words each) and corresponding interrupts which are generated when the FIFO’s are half-full or half-empty as appropriate. The inter rupts are c alled SS2RX and SS2TX, respectively. Register SS2DR is used to access the FIFOs.

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

2.15.3.1 Read Back of Residual Data
All writes to the transmit FIFO must be in half-words (i.e., in units of two bytes at a time). On the receive side, it is possible that an odd number of bytes will be received. Bytes are always loaded into the receive FIFO in pairs. Consequently , in the case of a single residual byte remaining at the end of a transmission, it will be necessary for the software to read the byte separately . This is done by reading the status of two b its in the SYSFLG2 register to determine the validity of the residual data. These two bits (RESVAL, RES­FRM) are both set high when a residual is valid. RESVAL is cleared on either a new transmission or on reading of the residual bit by software. RESFRM is cleared only on a new transmission. By popping the residual byte into the RX FIFO and then reading the status of these bits it is possible to determine if a re­sidual bit has been correctly read.
Figure 10 illustrates this procedure. The sequenc e is as follows: re ad the RES VAL bit, if this is a 0, no a c­tion needs to be taken. If this is a 1, then pop the residual byte into the FIFO by writing to the SS2POP location. Then read back the two status bits RESVAL and RESFRM. If these bits read back 01, then the residual byte popped into the FIFO is valid and can be read back from the SS2DR register. If the bits are not 01, then there has been another transmission received since the residual read procedure has been start­ed. The data item that has been popped to the top of the FIFO will be invalid and should be ignored. In this case, the correct byte will have bee n stored in the most significant b yte of the next half-word to be clocke d into the FIFO.
Note: All the writes / reads to the FIFO are done word at a time (data on the lower 16 bits is valid and upper 16 bits
are ignored).
Software manually pops the residual byte into the RX FIFO by writing to the SS2POP location (the value written is ignored). This write will strobe the RX FIFO write signal, causing the residual byte to be written into the FIFO.
2.15.3.2 Support for Asymmetric Traffic
The interface supports asymmetric traffic (i.e., unbalanced data flow). This is accomplished through sep­arate transmit and receive frame sync control lines. In operation, the receiving node receives a byte of data on the eight clocks following the assertion of the receive frame sync control line. In a similar fashion, the sending node can transmit a byte of data on the eight clocks following the assertion of the transmit frame sync pulse.

There is no correlation in the frequency of assertions of the RX and TX frame sync control lines (SSITXFR and SSIRXFR). Hence, the RX path may bear a greater data throughput than the TX path, or vice versa. Both directions, however, have an absolute maximum data throughput rate determined by the maximum possible clock frequency, assuming that the interrupt response of the target OS is sufficiently quick.
2.15.3.3 Continuous Data Transfer
Data bytes may be sent / received in a contiguous manner without interleaving clocks between bytes. The frame sync control line(s) are eight clocks apart and aligned with the clock representing bit D0 of the pre­ceding byte (i.e., one bit in advance of the MSB).
2.15.3.4 Discontinuous Clock
In order to save power during the idle times, the clock line is put into a static low state. The master is re­sponsible for putting the link into the Idle State. The Idle State will begin one clock, or more, after the last byte transferred and will resume at least one clock prior to the first frame sync assertion. To disable the clock, the TX section is turned off.
In Master mode, the EP7312 does not support the discontinuous clock.
2.15.3.5 Error Conditions
RX FIFO overflows are detected and conveyed via a status bit in the SYSFLG2 register. This register should be accessed at periodic intervals by the application software. The status register should be read each time the RX FIFO interrupts are generated. At this time the error condition (i.e., overrun flag) will indicate that an error has occurred but cannot convey which byte contains the error. W riting to the SRXEOF register location clears the overrun flag. TX FIFO underflow condition is detected and conveyed via a bit in the SYSFLG2 register, which is accessed by the application software. A TX underflow error is cleared by writ­ing data to be transmitted to the TX FIFO.
2.15.3.6 Clock Polarity
Clock polarity is fixed. TX data is presented on the bus on the rising edge of the clock. Data is latched into the receiving device on the falling edge of the clock. The TX pin is held in a tristate condition when not transmitting.

2.16 LCD Controller with Support for On-Chip Frame Buffer

The LCD controller provides all the necessary control signals to interfac e directly to a single panel multi­plexed LCD. The panel size is programmable and can be any width (line length) from 32 to 1024 pixels in 16-pixel increments. The total video frame buffer size is programmable up to 128 kbytes. This equates to a theoretical maximum panel size of 1024 x 256 pixels in 4 bits-per-pixel mode. The video frame buffer can be located in any portion of memory controlled by the chip selects. Its start address will be fixed at address 0x000.0000 within each chip select. The start address of the LCD video frame buffer is defined in the FBADDR[3-0] register. These bits become the most significant nibble of the external address bus. The default start address is 0xC000.0000 (FBADDR = 0xC). A system built using the on-chip SR AM (OCSR), will then serve as the LCD video frame buffer and miscellaneous data store. The LCD video frame buffer start address should be set to 0x6 in this option. Programming of the register FBADDR is only permitted when the LCD is disabled (this is to avoid possible cycle corruption when changing the register contents while a LCD DMA cycle is in progress). The re is no hardware protection to prevent this. It is necessary for the software to disable the LCD controller before reprogr amming the FBADDR r egister. Full address decoding is provided for the OCSR, up to the maximum video frame buffer size programmable into the LCDCON register . Beyond this, the address is wrapped around. The frame buffer start address mus t not be programmed to 0x4 or 0x5 if either CL-PS6700 interface is in use (PCMEN1 or PCMEN2 bits in the SYSCON2 register are enabled). FBADDR should never be program med to 0x7 or 0x8, as these are the locations for the on-chip Boot ROM and internal registers.
The screen is mapped to the video frame buffer as one contiguous block where each horizontal line of pix­els is mapped to a set of consecutive bytes or words in the video RAM. The video fra me buffer can be accessed word wide as pixel 0 is mapped to the LSB in the buffer such that the pixels are arranged in a little endian manner.
The pixel bit rate, and hence the LCD refresh rate, can be programmed from 18.432 MHz to 576 kHz when
operating in 18.432–73.728 MHz mode, or 13 MHz to 203 kHz when operating from a 13 MHz clock. The LCD controller is programmed by writing to the LCD control register (LCDCON). The LCDCON register should not be reprogrammed while the LCD controller is enabled.
The LCD controller also contains two 32-bit palette registers, which allow any 4-, 2-, or 1-bit pixel value to be mapped to any of the 15 grayscale values available. The required DMA bandwidth to support a ½ VGA panel displaying 4 bits-per-pixel data at an 80 Hz refresh rate is approximately 6.2 Mbytes/s. Assum­ing the frame buffer is stored in a 32-bit wide memory, the maximum theoretical bandwidth available is 86 Mbytes/s at 36.864 MHz, or 29.7 Mbytes/s at 13 MHz.
The LCD controller uses a nine stage 32-bit wide FIFO to buffer display data. The LCD controller requests new data when there are five words remaining in the FIFO. This means that for a ½ VGA display at 4 bits­per-pixel and 80 Hz refresh rate, the maximum allowable DMA latency is approximately 3.25 µsec ((5 words x 8 bits/byte) / (640 x 240 x 4bpp x 80 Hz)) = 3.25 µs). The worst-case latency is the total number of cycles from when the DMA request appears to when the first DMA data word actually becomes avail­able at the FIFO. DMA has the highest priority, so it will always happen next in the system. The maximum number of cycles required is 36 from the point at which the DMA request occurs to the point at which the STM is complete, then another 6 cycles before the data actually arrives at the FIFO from the first DMA read. This creates a total of 42 cycles. Assuming the frame buffer is located in 32-bit wide, the worst-case
48 DS508UM1
Page 48
latency is almost exactly 3.2 µs, with 13 MHz page mode cycles. With each cycle consuming ~77 ns (i.e., 1/1 MHz), the value of 3.2 µs comes from 42 cycles x 77 ns/cycle = ~3.23 µs. If 16-bit wide, then the worst-case latency will double. In this case, the maximum permissible display size will be halved, to ap­proximately 320 x 240 pixels, assuming the same pixel depth and refresh rate has to be maintained. If the frame buffer is to be stored in static memory , then further calculations must be performed. If 18 MHz mode is selected, and 32-bit wide, then the worst-case la tency will be 2.26 µs (i.e., 42 cycles x 54 ns/cycle). If 36 MHz mode is selected, and 32-bit wide, then the worst-case latency drops down to 1.49 µs. This calcu­lation is a little more complex for 36 MHz mode of operation. The total number of cycles = (12 x 4) + 7 =
55. Thus, 55 x 27 ns = ~1.49 µs. Figure 11 shows the organization of the video map for all combinations of bits-per-pixel. The refresh rate is not affected by the number of bits-per-pixel; however the LCD controller fetches twice
the data per refresh for 4 bits-per-pixel compared to 2 bits-per-pixel. The main reason for reducing the number of bits-per-pixel is to reduce the power consumption of the memory where the video frame buffer is mapped.

2.17 Timer Counters

Two identical timer counters are integrated into the EP7312. These are referred to as TC1 and TC2. Each timer counter has an associated 16-bit read / write data register and some control bits in the system control register. Each counter is loaded with the value written to the data register immediat ely . Thi s value will then be decremented on the second active clock edge to arrive after the write (i.e., after the first complete period of the clock). When the timer counter under flows (i.e., reaches 0), it will assert its appropriate interrupt. The timer counters can be read at any time. The clock source and mode are selectable by writing to various bits in the system control register . When run from the internal PLL, 512 kHz and 2 kHz rates are provided. When using the 13 MHz external source, the default freque ncies w ill be 541 kHz and 2.115 kHz, respec­tively . However , only in non-PLL mode, an optional divide by 26 frequency can be generated (thus gener­ating a 500 kHz frequency when using the 13 MHz source). This divider is enabled by setting the OSTB (Operating System Timing Bit) in the SYSCON2 register (bit 12). When this bit is set high to select the 500 kHz mode, the 500 kHz frequency is routed to the timers instead of the 541 kHz clock. This does not affect the frequencies derived for any of the other internal peripherals.
The timer counters can operate in two modes: free running or pre-scale.
2.17.1 Free Running Mode
In the free running mode, the counter will wrap around to 0xFFFF when it under flows and it will continue to count down. Any value written to TC1 or TC2 will be decremented on the second edge of the selected clock.
2.17.2 Prescale Mode
In the prescale mode, the value written to TC1 or TC2 is automatically re-loaded when the counter under flows. Any value written to TC1 or TC2 will be decremented on the second edge of the selected clock. This mode can be used to produce a programmable frequency to drive the buzzer (i.e., with TC1) or generate a periodic interrupt. The formula is F=(500 kHz) / (n+1).

2.18 Real Time Clock

The EP7312 contains a 32-bit Real Time Clock (RTC). This can be written to and read from in the same way as the timer counters, but it is 32 bits wide. The RTC is always clocked at 1 Hz, generated from the
32.768 kHz oscillator. It also contains a 32-bit output match register, this can be programmed to generate an interrupt when the time in the RTC matches a specific time written to this register. The RTC can only be reset by an nPOR cold reset. Because the RTC data register is updated from the 1 Hz clock derived from the 32 kHz source, which is asynchronous to the main memory system clock, the data register should al ­ways be read twice to ensure a valid and stable reading. This also applies when reading back the RTCDIV field of the SYSCON1 register, which reflects the status of the six LSBs of the RTC counter.
50 DS508UM1
Page 50
2.18.1 Characteristics of the Real Time Clock Interface
When connecting a crystal to the RTC interface pins (i.e., RTCIN and RTCOUT), the crystal and circuit should conform to the following requirements:
The 32.768 kHz frequency should be created by the crystals fundamental tone (i.e., it should be a fun­damental mode crystal)
A start-up resistor is not necessary, since one is provided internally.
Start-up loading capacitors may be placed on each side of the external crystal and ground. Their value should be in the range of 10 pF. However, their values should be selected based upon the crystal spec­ifications. The total sum of the capacitance of the traces between the EP7312’s clock pins, the capaci­tors, and the crystal leads should be subtracted from the crystal’s specifications when determining the values for the loading capacitors.
The crystal should have a maximum 5 ppm frequency drift over the chip’s operating temperature range.
The voltage for the crystal must be 2.5 V + 0.2 V.
Alternatively , a digital clock source can be used to drive the RTCIN pin of the EP7312. W ith this approach, the voltage levels of the clock source should match that of the VDD supply for the EP7312’s pads (i.e., the supply voltage level used to drive all of the non-VDD core pins on the EP7312) (i.e., RTCOUT). The output clock pin should be left floating.

2.19 Dedicated LED Flasher

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

2.20 Two PWM Interfaces

T wo Pulse W idth Modulator (PWM) duty ratio clock outputs are provided by the EP7312. When the device is operating from the internal PLL, the PWM will run at a frequency of 96 kHz. These signals are intended for use as drives for external DC-to-DC converters in the Power Supply Unit (PSU) subsystem. External input pins that would normally be connected to the output from comparators monitoring the external DC­to-DC converter output are also used to enable these clocks. These are the FB[0-1] pins. The duty ratio (and hence PWMs on time) can be programmed from 1 pulse in 16 pulses to 15 in 16. The sense of the PWM drive signal (active high or low) is determined by latching the state of this drive signal during power on reset (i.e., a pull-up on the drive signal will result in a active low drive output, and visa versa). This allows either positive or negative voltages to be generated by the external DC-to-DC converter . PWMs are disabled by writing zeros into the drive ratio fields in the PMPCON Pump Control register.
Note: To maximize power savings, the drive ratio fields should be used to disable the PWMs, instead of the FB
pins. The clocks that source the PWMs are disabled when the drive ratio fields are zeroed.

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

2.22 In-Circuit Emulation

2.22.1 Introduction
EmbeddedICE™ is an extension to the architecture of the ARM family of processors, and provides the abil­ity to debug cores that are deeply embedded into systems. It consists of three parts:
A set of extensions to the ARM core
The EmbeddedICE macrocell, which provides external access to the extensions
The EmbeddedICE interface, which provides communication between the host computer and the Em­beddedICE macrocell
The EmbeddedICE macrocell is programmed, in a serial fashion, through the TAP controller on the ARM via the JTAG interface. The EmbeddedICE macrocell is by default disabled to mi nimize power usage, and must be enabled at boot-up to support this functionality.
2.22.2 Functionality
The ICEBreaker module consists of two real-time watchpoint units together with a control and status reg­ister. One or both of the units can be programmed to halt the execution of the instructions by the ARM processor. Execution is halted when either a match occurs between the values programmed into the ICE­Breaker and the values currently appearing on the address bus, data bus, and the various control signals. Any bit can be masked to remove it from the comparison. Either unit can be programmed as a watchpoint (monitoring data accesses) or a breakpoint (monitoring instruction fetches).
Using one of these watchpoint units, an unlimited number of software breakpoints (in RAM) can be sup­ported by substitution of the actual code.
Note: The EXTERN[1:0] signals from the ICEBreaker module are not wired out in this device. This mechanism is
used to allow watchpoints to be dependent on an external event. This behavior can be emulated in software via the ICEBreaker control registers.
A more detailed description is available in the ARM Software Development Toolkit User Guide and Refer­ence Manual. The ICEBreaker module and its registers are fully described in the ARM7TDMI Data Sheet.

2.23 Maximum-Configured EP7312-Based System

A maximum configured system using the EP7312 is shown in Figure 13 on page 54. This system assumes all of the SDRAMs and ROMs are 16-bit wide devices. The keyboard may be connected to more GPIO bits than shown to allow greater than 64 keys, however these extra pins will not be wired into the WAKE­UP pin functionality.

2.24 I/O Buffer Characteristics

All I/O buffers on the EP7312 are CMOS threshold input bidirectional buffers except the oscillator and power pads. For signals that are nominally inputs, the output buffer is only enabled during pin test mode. All output buffers are three stated during system (hi-Z) test mode. All buffers have a standard CMOS threshold input stage (apart from the Schmitt-triggered inputs) and CMOS slew-rate- controlled output stages to reduce system noise. Table 25 defines the I/O buffer output characteristics which will apply across the full range of temperature and voltage (i.e., these values are for 3.3 V, +70°C).
All propagation delays are specified at 50% VDD to 50% VDD, all rise times are specified as 10% VDD to 90% VDD and all fall times are specified as 90% VDD to 10% VDD.

3. TEST MODES

The EP7312 supports a number of hardware activated test modes, these are activated by the pin combina­tions shown in Table 26. All latched signals will only alter test modes while NPOR is low, their state is latched on the rising edge of NPOR. This allows these signals to be used normally during various test modes.
Within each test mode, a selection of pins is used as multiplexed outputs or inputs to provide / m onitor the test signals unique to that mode.

3.1 Oscillator and PLL Bypass Mode

This mode is selected by nTEST[0] = 1, nTEST[1] = 0. In this mode, all the internal oscillators and PLL are disabled, and the appropriate crystal oscillator pins
become the direct external oscillator inputs bypassing the oscillator and PLL. MOSCIN must be driven by a 36.864 MHz clock source and RTCIN by a 32.768 kHz source.
56 DS508UM1
Page 56

3.2 Oscillator and PLL Test Mode

This mode is selected by nTEST[0] = 0, nTEST[1] = 1, Latched nURESET = 0 This test mode will enable the main oscillator and will output various buffered clock and test signals de-
rived from the main oscillator, PLL, and 32 kHz oscillator. All internal logic in the EP7312 will be static and isolated from the oscillators, with the exception of the 6-bit ripple counter used to generate 576 kHz and the Real Time Clock divide chain. Port A is used to drive the inputs of the PLL directly, and the various clock and PLL outputs are monitored on the COL pins. Table 27 defines the EP7312 signal pins used in this test mode. This mode is only intended to allow test of the oscillators and PLL. Note that these inputs are inverted before being passed to the PLL to ensure that the default state of the port (all zero) maps onto the correct default state of the PLL (TSEL = 1, XTALON = 1, PLLON = 1, D0 = 0, D1 = 1, PLLBP = 0). This state will produce the correct frequencies as shown in T able 27. Any other combinations are for test­ing the oscillator and PLL and should not be used in-circuit.

3.3 Debug / ICE Test Mode

This mode is selected by nTEST0 = 0, nTEST1 = 0, Latched nURESET = 1. Selection of this mode enables the debug mode of the ARM720T . By default, this is dis abled which saves
approximately 3% on power.

3.4 Hi-Z (System) Test Mode

This mode selected by nTEST0 = 0, nTEST1 = 0, Latched nURESET = 0. This test mode asynchronously disables all output buffers on the EP7312. This has the effect of removing
the EP7312 from the PCB so that other devices on the PCB can be in-circuit tested. The internal state of the EP7312 is not altered directly by this test mode.

3.5 Software Selectable Test Functionality

When bit 11 of the SYSCON register is set high, internal peripheral bus register accesses are output on the main address and data buses as though they were external accesses to the address space addressed by nCS[5]. Hence, nCS[5] takes on a dual role, it will be ac tive as the strobe for internal acce sses and for any accesses to the standard address range for nCS[5]. Additionally, in this mode, the internal signals shown in Table 28 are multiplexed out of the device on port pins.
This test is not intended to be used when LCD DMA accesses are enabled. This is due to the fact that it is possible to have internal peripheral bus activity simultaneously with a DMA transf er. This would cause bus contention to occur on the external bus.
The “Waited clock to CPU” is an internally ANDed source that generates the actual CPU clock. Thus, it is possible to know exactly when the CPU is being clocked by viewing this pin. The signals nFIQ and nIRQ are the two output signals from the internal interrupt controller . They are input directly into the ARM720T processor.

4. PIN DESCRIPTIONS

Table 29 describes the function of all external signals to the EP7312. Note that all output signals and all I/O pins (when acting as outputs) are three stateable. This is to enable the Hi-Z test modes to be supported.

I/O DRA[0-14] are multiplexed with A[13-27], offering additional power
savings since the lightest loading is expected on the high order ROM address lines. Whenever the EP7312 is in the Standby State, the external address and data buses are driven low. The RUN signal is used internally to force these buses to be driven low. This is done to prevent peripherals that are powered-down from draining current. Also, the internal periph-
eral’s signals get set to their Reset State.

The core will generate an address. When doing a read, the ARM core will select the appropriate byte channels. When doing a write, the cor­rect bytes will have to be enabled depending on the above signals and the least significant bits of the address bus. The ARM architecture does not support unaligned accesses. For a read using x 32 memory, it is assumed that you will ignore bits 1 and 0 of the address bus and perform a word read (or in power critical sys­tems decode the relevant bits depending on the size of the access). If an unaligned read takes place, the core will rotate the resulting data in the register. For more information on this behavior see the LDR instruction in the ARM7TDMI data sheet.

I Wake up is a deglitched input signal. It must also be held high for at
least 125 µsec to guarantee its detection. Once detected it forces the system into the Operating State from the Standby State. It is only active when the system is in the Standby State. This pin is ignored when the system is in the Idle or Operating State. It is used to wakeup the system after first power-up, or after software has forced the system into the Standby S t ate. WAKEUP will be ignored for up to two seconds after nPOR goes HIGH. Therefore, the external WAKEUP logic must be designed to allow it to rise and stay HIGH for at least 125 usec, two seconds after nPOR goes HIGH.

All deglitched inputs are via the 16.384 kHz clock. Each deglitched signal must be held active for at least
two clock periods. Therefore, the input signal must be active for at least ~125 µs to be detected cleanly.
Note: The RTC crystal must be populated for the device to function properly.

The selection between SSI2 and the CODEC is controlled by the state of the SERSEL bit in SYSCON2 (See SYSCON2 System Control Register 2). The choice between the SSI2, CODEC, and the DAI is con­trolled by the DAISEL bit in SYSCON3 (See SYSCON3 System Control Register 3).

Note: The above output pins are implemented as bi-directional pins to enable the output side of the pad to be
monitored and hence provide more accurate control of timing or duration.
The RUN pin is looped back in to skew the address and data bus from each other. Drive 0 and 1 are looped back in on power up to determine what polarity the output of the PWM should be
when active. DD[0-3] are looped back in on power up to enable the reading of the ID of some LCD modules.

5. EP7312 MEMORY MAP

The lower 2 GByte of the address space is allocated to memory. The 0.5 GByte of address space from 0xC000.0000 to 0xDFFF .FFFF is allocated to SDRAM. The 1.5 GByte, less 8 kbytes for internal registers, is not accessible in the EP7312. The MMU in the EP7312 should be programmed to generate an abort ex­ception for access to this area.
Internal peripherals are addressed through a set of internal memory locations from hex address 0x8000.0000 to 0x8000.3FFF. These are known as the internal registers in the EP7312. In Table 32, the memory map from 0x8000.0000 to 0x8000.1FFF contains registers that are compatible with the CL­PS7111. These were included for backward compatibility and are referred to as old internal registers.
T able 32 also shows how the 4-Gbyte address range of the ARM720T processor (as configured within this chip) is mapped in the EP7312. The memory map shown assumes that two CL-PS6700 PC Card controllers are connected. If this functionality is not required, then the nCS[4] and nCS[5] memory is available. The external boot ROM is not fully decoded (i.e., the boot code will repeat within the 256-Mbyte space from 0x7000.0000 to 0x8000.0000). See Table 11 on page 27 for the memory map when booted from on-chip boot ROM. The SRAM is fully decoded up to a maximum size of 128 kbytes. Access to any location above this range will be wrapped to within the range.

6. REGISTER DESCRIPTIONS

6.1 Internal Registers

T able 33 on page 69 shows the Internal Registers of the EP7312 that are compatible with the EP7211 when the CPU is configured to a little endian memory system. Table 34 on page 72 shows the differences that occur when the CPU is configured to a big endian memory system for byte-wide access to Ports A, B, and D. All the internal registers are inherently little endian (i.e., the least significant byte is attached to bits 7 to 0 of the data bus). Hence, the system Endianness affects the addresses required for byte accesses to the internal registers, resulting in a reversal of the byte address required to rea d / write a particular byte within
a register. Note that the internal registers have been split into two groups – the “old” and the “new”. The old ones are the same as that used in EP7211 and are there for compatibility. The new registers are for ac­cessing the additional functionality of the DAI interface and the LED flasher.
There is no effect on the register addresses for word accesses. Bits A[0-1] of the internal address bus are only decoded for Ports A, B, and D (to allow read / write to individual ports). For all other registers, bits A[0-1] are not decoded, so that byte reads will return the whole register contents onto the EP7312’ s internal bus, from where the appropriate byte (according to the endianness) will be read by the CPU. To avoid the additional complexity, it is preferable to perform all internal register accesses as word operations, except for ports A to D which are explicitly designed to operate with byte a ccesses, as well as with word accesses.
An 8 k segment of memory in the range 0x8000.0000 to 0x8000.3FFF is reserved for interna l use in the EP7312. Accesses in this range will not cause any external bus activity unless debug mode is enabled. Writes to bits that are not explicitly defined in the internal area are legal and will have no effect. Reads from bits not explicitly defined in the internal area are legal but will read undefined values. All the internal addresses should only be accessed as 32-bit words and are always on a word boundary , except for the PIO port registers, which can be accessed as bytes. Address bits in the range A[0-5] are not decoded (exc ept for Ports A–D), this means each internal register is valid for 64 bytes (i.e., the SYSFLG1 register appears at locations 0x8000.0140 to 0x8000.017C). There are some gaps in the register map for backward compat­ibility reasons, but registers located next to a gap are still only decoded for 64 bytes.
The GPIO port registers are byte-wide and can be accessed as a word but not as a half-word. These registers additionally decode A[0-1]. All addresses are in hexadecimal notation.
Note: All byte-wide registers should be accessed as words (except Port A to Port D registers, which are designed
to work in both word and byte modes). All registers bit alignment starts from the LSB of the register (i.e., they are all right shift justified). The registers which interact with the 32 kHz clock or which could change during readback (i.e., RTC data registers, SYSFLG1 register (lower 6-bits only), the TC1D and TC2D data registers, port registers, and interrupt status registers), should be read twice and compared to ensure that a stable value has been read back.
All internal registers in the EP7312 are reset (cleared to zero) by a system reset (i.e., nPOR, nRESET, or nPWRFL signals becoming active), and the Real Time Clock data register (RTCDR) and match register (RTCMR), which are only reset by nPOR becoming active. This ensures that the system time preserved through a user reset or power fail condition. In the following register descriptions, little endian is assumed.

Table 34. EP7312 Internal Registers (Big Endian Mode)
All internal registers in the EP7312 are reset (cleared to zero) by a system reset (i.e., nPOR, nURESET, or nPWRFL signals becoming active), except for the SDRAM refresh period register (DPFPR), the Real Time Clock data register (RTCDR), and the match register (RTCMR), which are only reset by nPOR be­coming active. This ensures that the SDRAM contents and s ystem time are preserved through a user reset or power fail condition.
Note: The following Register Descriptions refer to Little Endian Mode Only
6.1.1 PADR — Port A Data Register
ADDRESS: 0x8000.0000
Values written to this 8-bit read / write register will be output on Port A pins if the corresponding data direction bits are set high (port output). Values read from this register reflect the external state of Port A, not necessarily the value written to it. All bits are cleared by a system reset.
6.1.2 PBDR — Port B Data Register
ADDRESS: 0x8000.0001
Values written to this 8-bit read / write register will be output on Port B pins if the corresponding data direction bits are set high (port output). Values read from this register reflect the external state of Port B, not necessarily the value written to it. All bits are cleared by a system reset.

Values written to this 8-bit read / write register will be output on Port D pins if the corresponding data direction bits are set low (port output). Values read from this register reflect the external state of Port registers in the EP7312 are reset (cleared to zero) by a system reset (i.e., nPOR, nURESET, or nP­WRFL signals becoming active), except for the SDRAM refresh period register ( S DRFPR), the Real Time Clock data register (RTCDR), and the match register (RTCMR), which are only reset by nPOR becoming active. This ensures that the SDRAM contents and system time are preserved through a user reset or power fail condition.
Note: The following Register Descriptions refer to Little Endian Mode Only
6.1.4 PADDR — Port A Data Direction Register
ADDRESS: 0x8000.0040
Bits set in this 8-bit read / write register will select the corresponding pin in Port A to become an output, clearing a bit sets the pin to input. All bits are cleared by a system reset.
6.1.5 PBDDR — Port B Data Direction Register
ADDRESS: 0x8000.0041
Bits set in this 8-bit read / write register will select the corresponding pin in Port B to become an output, clearing a bit sets the pin to input. All bits are cleared by a system reset.
6.1.6 PDDDR — Port D Data Direction Register
ADDRESS: 0x8000.0043
Bits cleared in this 8-bit read / write register will select the corresponding pin in Port D to become an output, setting a bit sets the pin to input. All bits are cleared by a system reset so that Port D is output by default.
6.1.7 PEDR — Port E Data Register
ADDRESS: 0x8000.0080
Values written to this 3-bit read / write register will be output on Port E pins if the corresponding data direction bits are set high (port output). Values read from this register reflect the external state of Port E, not necessarily the value written to it. All bits are cleared by a system reset.
6.1.8 PEDDR — Port E Data Direction Register
ADDRESS: 0x8000.00C0
Bits set in this 3-bit read / write register will select the corresponding pin in Port E to become an output, while the clearing bit sets the pin to input. All bits are cleared by a system reset so that Port E is input by default.

5 TC1S: Timer counter 1 clock source. Setting this bit sets the TC1 clock source to 512 kHz, clear-
ing it sets the clock source to 2 kHz.
6 TC2M: Timer counter 2 mode. Setting this bit sets TC2 to prescale mode, clearing it sets free run-

Bit Description
9 BZTOG: Bit to drive (i.e., toggle) the buzzer output directly when software mode of operation is
selected (i.e., bit BZMOD = 0). See the BZMOD and BUZFREQ (SYSCON1) bits for more details.
10 BZMOD: This bit selects the buzzer drive mode. When BZMOD = 0, the buzzer drive output pin
is connected directly to the BZTOG bit. This is the software mode. When BZMOD = 1, the buzzer drive is in the hardware mode. Two hardware sources are available to drive the pin. They are the TC1 or a fixed internally generated clock source. The selection of which source is used to drive the pin is determined by the state of the BUZFREQ bit in the SYSCON2 register. If the TC1 is selected, then the buzzer output pin is connected to the TC1 under flow bit. The buzzer output pin changes every time the timer wraps around. The frequency depends on what was pro­grammed into the timer. See the description of the BUZFREQ and BZTOG bits (SYSCON2) for more details.
11 DBGEN: Setting this bit will enable the debug mode. In this mode, all internal accesses are out-
put as if they were reads or writes to the expansion memory addressed by nCS5. nCS5 will still be active in its standard address range. In addition, the internal interrupt request and fast inter­rupt request signals to the ARM720T processor are output on Port E, bits 1 and 2. Note that these bits must be programmed to be outputs before this functionality can be observed. The clock to the CPU is output on Port E, Bit 0 to delineate individual accesses. For example, in debug mode:
nCS5 = nCS5 or internal I/O strobe
PE0 = CLK
PE1 = nIRQ
PE2 = nFIQ
12 LCDEN: LCD enable bit. Setting this bit enables the LCD controller. 13 CDENTX: CODEC interface enable TX bit. Setting this bit enables the CODEC interface for data
transmission to an external CODEC device.
14 CDENRX: CODEC interface enable RX bit. Setting this bit enables the CODEC interface for data
reception from an external CODEC device. NOTE:Both CDENRX and CDENTX need to be enabled / disabled in tandem, otherwise data may
be lost.
15 SIREN: HP SIR protocol encoding enable bit. This bit will have no effect if the UART is not
enabled.
16-17 ADCKS EL: Microwire / SPI peripheral clock speed select. This two-bit field selects the frequency
of the ADC sample clock, which is twice the frequency of the synchronous serial ADC interface clock. The table below shows the available frequencies for operation when in PLL mode. These bits are also used to select the shift clock frequency for the SSI2 interface when set into master mode. The frequencies obtained in 13.0 MHz mode can be found in Table 1 on page 10.

Bit Description
18 EXCKEN: External expansion clock enable. If this bit is set, the EXPCLK is enabled continuously
as a free running clock with the same frequency and phase as the CPU clock, assuming that the main oscillator is running. This bit should not be left set all the time for power consumption rea­sons. If the system enters the Standby State, the EXPCLK will become undefined. If this bit is clear, EXPCLK will be active during memory cycles to expansion slots that have external wait state generation enabled only.
19 WAKEDIS: Setting this bit disables waking up from the Standby State, via the wakeup input. 20 IRTXM: IrDA TX mode bit. This bit controls the IrDA encoding strategy. Clearing this bit means
that each zero bit transmitted is represented as a pulse of width 3/16th of the bit rate period. Set­ting this bit means each zero bit is represented as a pulse of width 3/16th of the period of 1 15,200-bit rate clock (i.e., 1.6 µs regardless of the selected bit rate). Setting this bit will use less power, but will probably reduce transmission distances.

Bit Description
0 SERSEL:The only affect of this bit is to select either SSI2 or the CODEC interface to the external
pins. See the table below for the selection options.
NOTE: If the DAISEL bit of SYSCON3 is set, then it overrides the state of the SERSEL
bit, and thus the external pins are connected to the DAI interface.
SERSEL Value Selected Serial Device to
External Pins
0 Master / slave SSI2 1CODEC
1 KBD6: The state of this bit determines how many of the Port A inputs are OR’ed together to cre-
ate the keyboard interrupt. When zero (the reset state), all eight of the Port A inputs will generate a keyboard interrupt. When set high, only Port A bits 0 to 5 will generate an interrupt from the keyboard. It is assumed that the keyboard row lines are connected into Port A.
2 DRAMZ: The bit determines the width of the DRAM memory interface, where: 0=32-bit DRAM
and 1=16-bit DRAM.
3 KBWEN: When the KBWEN bit is high, the EP7312 will awaken from a power saving state into
the Operating State when a high signal is on one of Port A’s inputs (irrespective of the state of the interrupt mask register). This is called the Keyboard Direct Wakeup mode. In this mode, the inter­rupt request does not have to get serviced. If the interrupt is masked (i.e., the interrupt mask reg­ister 2 (INTMR2) bit 0 is low), the processor simply starts re-executing code from where it left off before it entered the power saving state. If the interrupt is non-masked, then the processor will service the interrupt.
4 SS2TXEN: Transmit enable for the synchronous serial interface 2. The transmit side of SSI2 will
be disabled until this bit is set. When set low, this bit also disables the SSICLK pin (to save power) in master mode, if the receive side is low.
5 PC CARD1: Enable for the interface to the CL-PS6700 device for PC Card slot 1. The main effect
of this bit is to reassign the functionality of Port B, bit 0 to the PRDY input from the CL-PS6700 devices, and to ensure that any access to the nCS4 address space will be according to the CL-PS6700 interface protocol.
6 PC CARD2: Enable for the interface to the CL-PS6700 device for PC Card slot 2. The main effect
of this bit is to reassign the functionality of Port B, bit 1 to the PRDY input from the CL-PS6700 devices and to ensure that any access to the nCS5 address space will be according to the CL-PS6700 interface protocol.

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

The system status flags register is a 32-bit read only register, which indicates various system infor­mation. The bits in the system status flags register SYSFLG1 are defined in Table 38.
Bit Description
0 MCDR: Media changed direct read. This bit reflects the INVERTED non-latched status of the
media changed input.
1 DCDET: This bit will be set if a non-battery operated power supply is powering the system (it is
the inverted state of the nEXTPWR input pin). 2 WUDR: Wake up direct read. This bit reflects the non-latched state of the wakeup signal. 3 WUON: This bit will be set if the system has been brought out of the Standby State by a rising
edge on the wakeup signal. It is cleared by a system reset or by writing to the HALT or STDBY
locations. 4-7 DID: Display ID nibble. This 4-bit nibble reflects the latched state of the four LCD data lines. The
state of the four LCD data lines is latched by the LCDEN bit, and so it will always reflect the last
state of these lines before the LCD controller was enabled. 8 CTS: This bit reflects the current status of the clear to send (CTS) modem control input to
UART1. 9 DSR: This bit reflects the current status of the data set ready (DSR) modem control input to
UART1. 10 DCD: This bit reflects the current status of the data carrier detect (DCD) modem control input to
UART1. 11 UBUSY1: UART1 transmitter busy. This bit is set while UART1 is busy transmitting data, it is
guaranteed to remain set until the complete byte has been sent, including all stop bits. 12 NBFLG: New battery flag. This bit will be set if a low to high transition has occurred on the
nBA TCHG input, it is cleared by writing to the STFCLR location. 13 RSTFLG: Reset flag. This bit will be set if the RESET button has been pressed, forcing the
nURESET input low. It is cleared by writing to the STFCLR location. 14 PFFLG: Power Fail Flag. This bit will be set if the system has been reset by the nPWRFL input
pin, it is cleared by writing to the STFCLR location. 15 CLDFLG: Cold start flag. This bit will be set if the EP7312 has been reset with a power on reset,
it is cleared by writing to the STFCLR location.

Bit Description
16-21 RTCDIV: This 6-bit field reflects the number of 64 Hz ticks that have passed since the last incre-
ment of the RTC. It is the output of the divide by 64 chain that divides the 64 Hz tick clock down to 1 Hz for the RTC. The MSB is the 32 Hz output, the LSB is the 1 Hz output.
22 URXFE1: UART1 receiver FIFO empty. The meaning of this bit depends on the state of the UFI-
FOEN bit in the UART1 bit rate and line control register. If the FIFO is disabled, this bit will be set when the RX holding register is empty. If the FIFO is enabled, the URXFE bit will be set when the RX FIFO is empty.
23 UTXFF1: UART1 transmit FIFO full. The meaning of this bit depends on the state of the UFI-
FOEN bit in the UART1 bit rate and line control register. If the FIFO is disabled, this bit will be set when the TX holding register is full. If the FIFO is enabled, the UTXFF bit will be set when the TX
FIFO is full. 24 CRXFE: CODEC RX FIFO empty bit. This will be set if the 16-byte CODEC RX FIFO is empty. 25 CTXFF: CODEC TX FIFO full bit. This will be set if the 16-byte CODEC TX FIFO is full. 26 SSIBUSY: Synchronous serial interface busy bit. This bit will be set while data is being shifted in
or out of the synchronous serial interface, when clear data is valid to read. 27-28 BOOTBIT[0-1]: These bits indicate the default (power-on reset) bus width of the ROM interface.

The bits of the second system status register are defined in Table 39.
Bit Description
0 SS2RXOF: Master / slave SSI2 RX FIFO overflow. This bit is set when a write is attempted to a
full RX FIFO (i.e., when RX is still receiving data and the FIFO is full). This can be cleared in one of two ways:
1. Empty the FIFO (remove data from FIFO) and then write to SRXEOF location.
2. Disable the RX (affects of disabling the RX will not take place until a full SSI2 clock cycle after it is disabled)
1 RESVAL: Master / slave SSI2 RX FIFO residual byte present, cleared by popping the residual
byte into the SSI2 RX FIFO or by a new RX frame sync pulse.
2 RESFRM: Master / slave SSI2 RX FIFO residual byte present, cleared only by a new RX frame
sync pulse.
3 SS2RXFE: Master / slave SSI2 RX FIFO empty bit. This will be set if the 16 x 16 RX FIFO is
empty.
4 SS2TXFF: Master / slave SSI2 TX FIFO full bit. This will be set if the 16 x 16 TX FIFO is full. This
will get cleared when data is removed from the FIFO or the EP7312 is reset.
5 SS2TXUF: Master / slave SSI2 TX FIFO Underflow bit. This will be set if there is attempt to trans-
mit when TX FIFO is empty. This will be cleared when FIFO gets loaded with data.
6 CKMODE: This bit reflects the status of the CLKSEL (PE[2]) input, latched during nPOR. When
low, the PLL is running and the chip is operating in 18.432–73.728 MHz mode. When high the chip is operating from an external 13 MHz clock.
11 UBUSY2: UART2 transmitter busy. This bit is set while UART2 is busy transmitting data; it is
guaranteed to remain set until the complete byte has been sent, including all stop bits.
22 URXFE2: UART2 receiver FIFO empty. The meaning of this bit depends on the state of the UFI-
FOEN bit in the UART2 bit rate and line control register. If the FIFO is disabled, this bit will be set when the RX holding register contains is empty. If the FIFO is enabled, the URXFE bit will be set when the RX FIFO is empty.
23 UTXFF2: UART2 transmit FIFO full. The meaning of this bit depends on the state of the UFI-
FOEN bit in the UART2 bit rate and line control register. If the FIFO is disabled, this bit will be set when the TX holding register is full. If the FIFO is enabled, the UTXFF bit will be set when the TX FIFO is full.

The interrupt status register is a 32-bit read only register. The interrupt status register reflects the cur­rent state of the first 16 interrupt sources within the EP7312. Each bit is set if the appropriate interrupt is active. The interrupt assignment is given in Table 40.
Bit Description
0 EXTFIQ: External fast interrupt. This interrupt will be active if the nEXTFIQ input pin is forced low and is
mapped to the FIQ input on the ARM720T processor.
1 BLINT: Battery low interrupt. This interrupt will be active if no external supply is present (nEXTPWR is
high) and the battery OK input pin BATOK is forced low. This interrupt is de-glitched with a 16 kHz clock, so it will only generate an interrupt if it is active for longer than 125 µsec. It is mapped to the FIQ input on the ARM720T processor and is cleared by writing to the BLEOI location. NOTE: BLINT is disabled during the Standby State.
2 WEINT: Tick Watch dog expired interrupt. This interrupt will become active on a rising edge of the peri-
odic 64 Hz tick interrupt clock if the tick interrupt is still active (i.e., if a tick interrupt has not been ser­viced for a complete tick period). It is mapped to the FIQ input on the ARM720T processor and the TEOI location. NOTE: WEINT is disabled during the Standby State.
Watch dog timer tick rate is 64 Hz (in 13 MHz and 73.728–18.432 MHz modes). Watchdog timer is turned off during the Standby State.
3 MCINT: Media changed interrupt. This interrupt will be active after a rising edge on the nMEDCHG input
pin has been detected, This input is de-glitched with a 16 kHz clock so it will only generate an interrupt if it is active for longer than 125 µsec. It is mapped to the FIQ input on the ARM7TDMI processor and is cleared by writing to the MCEOI location. On power-up, the Media change pin (nMEDCHG) is used as an input to force the processor to either boot from the internal Boot ROM, or from external memory. After power-up, the pin can be used as a general purpose FIQ interrupt pin.
4 CSINT: CODEC sound interrupt, generated when the data FIFO has reached half full or empty (depend-
ing on the interface direction). It is cleared by writing to the COEOI location.
5 EINT1: External interrupt input 1. This interrupt will be active if the nEINT1 input is active (low). It is
cleared by returning nEINT1 to the passive (high) state.
6 EINT2: External interrupt input 2. This interrupt will be active if the nEINT2 input is active (low). It is
cleared by returning nEINT2 to the passive (high) state.
7 EINT3: External interrupt input 3. This interrupt will be active if the EINT3 input is active (high). It is
cleared by returning EINT3 to the passive (low) state.
8 TC1OI: TC1 under flow interrupt. This interrupt becomes active on the next falling edge of the timer
counter 1 clock after the timer counter has under flowed (reached zero). It is cleared by writing to the TC1EOI location.

9 TC2OI: TC2 under flow interrupt. This interrupt becomes active on the next falling edge of the timer
counter 2 clock after the timer counter has under flowed (reached zero). It is cleared by writing to the TC2EOI location.
10 RTCMI: RTC compare match interrupt. This interrupt becomes active on the next rising edge of the
1 Hz Real Time Clock (one second later) after the 32-bit time written to the Real Time Clock match reg­ister exactly matches the current time in the RTC. It is cleared by writing to the RTCEOI location.
11 TINT: 64 Hz tick interrupt. This interrupt becomes active on every rising edge of the internal
64 Hz clock signal. This 64 Hz clock is derived from the 15-stage ripple counter that divides the
32.768 kHz oscillator input down to 1 Hz for the Real Time Clock. This interrupt is cleared by writing to the TEOI location. NOTE: TINT is disabled / turned off during the Standby State.
12 UTXINT1: Internal UART1 transmit FIFO half-empty interrupt. The function of this interrupt source
depends on whether the UART1 FIFO is enabled. If the FIFO is disabled (FIFOEN bit is clear in the UART1 bit rate and line control register), this interrupt will be active when there is no data in the UART1 TX data holding register and be cleared by writing to the UART1 data register. If the FIFO is enabled this interrupt will be active when the UART1 TX FIFO is half or more empty, and is cleared by filling the FIFO to at least half full.
13 URXINT1: Internal UART1 receive FIFO half full interrupt. The function of this interrupt source depends
on whether the UART1 FIFO is enabled. If the FIFO is disabled this interrupt will be active when there is valid RX data in the UART1 RX data holding register and be cleared by reading this data. If the FIFO is enabled this interrupt will be active when the UART1 RX FIFO is half or more full or if the FIFO is non empty and no more characters have been received for a three character time out period. It is cleared by reading all the data from the RX FIFO.
14 UMSINT: Internal UART1 modem status changed interrupt. This interrupt will be active if either of the
two modem status lines (CTS or DSR) change state. It is cleared by writing to the UMSEOI location.
15 SSEOTI: Synchronous serial interface end of transfer interrupt. This interrupt will be active after a com-
plete data transfer to and from the external ADC has been completed. It is cleared by reading the ADC data from the SYNCIO register.

This interrupt mask register is a 32-bit read / write register, which is used to selectively enable any of the first 16 interrupt sources within the EP7312. The four shaded interrupts all generate a fast interrupt request to the ARM720T processor (FIQ), this will cause a jump to processor virtual address
0000.001C. All other interrupts will generate a standard interrupt request (IRQ), this will cause a jump to processor virtual address 0000.0018. Setting the appropriate bit in this register enables the corre­sponding interrupt. All bits are cleared by a system reset. Please refer to

The interrupt status register also reflects the current state of the new interrupt sources within the EP7312. Each bit is set if the appropriate interrupt is active. The interrupt assignment is given in Table 41.
Bit Description
0 KBDINT: Keyboard interrupt. This interrupt is generated whenever a key is pressed, from the log-
ical OR of the first 6 or all 8 of the Port A inputs (depending on the state of the KBD6 bit in the
SYSCON2 register. The interrupt request is latched and can be de-asserted by writing to the
KBDEOI location.
NOTE: KBDINT is not deglitched. 1 SS2RX: Synchronous serial interface 2 receives FIFO half or greater full interrupt. This is gener-
ated when RX FIFO contains 8 or more half-words. This interrupt is cleared only when the RX
FIFO is emptied or one SSI2 clock after RX is disabled. 2 SS2TX: Synchronous serial interface 2 transmit FIFO less than half empty interrupt. This is gen-
erated when TX FIFO contains fewer than 8 byte pairs. This interrupt gets cleared by loading the
FIFO with more data or disabling the TX. One synchronization clock required when disabling the
TX side before it takes effect. 12 UTXINT2: UART2 transmit FIFO half empty interrupt. The function of this interrupt source
depends on whether the UART2 FIFO is enabled. If the FIFO is disabled (FIFOEN bit is clear in
the UART2 bit rate and line control register), this interrupt will be active when there is no data in
the UART2 TX data holding register and be cleared by writing to the UART2 data register. If the
FIFO is enabled, this interrupt will be active when the UART2 TX FIFO is half or more empty and
is cleared by filling the FIFO to at least half full. 13 URXINT2: UART2 receive FIFO half full interrupt. The function of this interrupt source depends
on whether the UART2 FIFO is enabled. If the FIFO is disabled, this interrupt will be active when
there is valid RX data in the UART2 RX data holding register and be cleared by reading this data.
If the FIFO is enabled, this interrupt will be active when the UART2 RX FIFO is half or more full or
if the FIFO is non-empty, and no more characters have been received for a three-character time-
out period, t is cleared by reading all the data from the RX FIFO.

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

The Memory Configuration Register 2 is a 32-bit read / write register which sets the configuration of the two expansion and ROM selects nCS[4-5]. Each select is configured with a 1-byte field starting with expansion select 4.
Each of the six non-reserved byte fields for chip select configuration in the memory configuration reg­isters are identical and define the number of wait states, the bus width, enable EXPCLK output during accesses and enable sequential mode access. This byte field is defined below. This arrangement ap­plies to nCS[0-3], and nCS[4-5] when the PC CARD enable bits in the SYSCON2 register are not set. The state of these bits is ignored for the Boot ROM and local SRAM fields in the MEMCFG2 register.
Table 43 on page 88 defines the bus width field. Note that the effect of this field is dependent on the two BOOTBIT bits that can be read in the SYSFLG1 register. All bits in the memory configuration reg­ister are cleared by a system reset, and the state of the BOOTBIT bits are determined by Port E bits 0 and 1 on the EP7312 during power-on reset. The state of PE[1] and PE[0] determine whether the EP7312 is going to boot from either 32-bit-wide, 16-bit-wide or 8-bit-wide ROMs.
Table 44 on page 88 shows the values for the wait states for random and sequential wait states at 13 and 18 MHz bus rates. At 36 MHz bus rate, the encoding becomes more complex. Table 45 on page 89 preserves compatibility with the previous devices, while allowing the previously unused bit combinations to specify more variations of random and sequential wait states.

Bit Description
6 SQAEN: Sequential access enable. Setting this bit will enable sequential accesses that are on a
quad word boundary to take advantage of faster access times from devices that support page
mode. The sequential access will be faulted after four words (to allow video refresh cycles to
occur), even if the access is part of a longer sequential access. In addition, when this bit is not
set, non-sequential accesses will have a single idle cycle inserted at least every four cycles so
that the chip select is de-asserted periodically between accesses for easier debug. 7 CLKENB: Expansion clock enable. Setting this bit enables the EXPCLK to be active during
accesses to the selected expansion device. This will provide a timing reference for devices that
need to extend bus cycles using the EXPRDY input. Back-to-back (but not necessarily page
mode) accesses will result in a continuous clock. This bit will only affect EXPCLK when the PLL
is being used (i.e., in 73.728–18.432 MHz mode). When operating in 13 MHz mode, the EXPCLK
pin is an input, so it is not affected by this register bit. To save power internally, it should always
be set to zero when operating in 13 MHz mode.

Chip selects nCS[4] and nCS[5] are used to select two CL-PS6700 PC CARD controller devices. These have a multiplexed 16-bit wide address / data interface, and the configuration bytes in the MEMCFG2 register have no meaning when these interfaces are enabled.

Drive 1 pump ratio Drive 0 from AC source ratio Drive 0 from battery ratio
The Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) pump control register is a 16-bit read / write register which sets and controls the variable mark space ratio drives for the two PWMs. All bits in this register are cleared by a system reset. (The top four bits are unused. They should be written as zeroes, and will read as undefined).
DS508UM1 93
Page 93
Bit Description
0-3 Drive 0 from battery: This 4-bit field controls the “on” time for the Drive 0 PWM pump while the
system is powered from batteries. Setting these bits to 0 disables this pump, while setting these
bits to 1 allows the pump to be driven in a 1:16 duty ratio, 2 in a 2:16 duty ratio etc. up to a 15:16
duty ratio. An 8:16 duty ratio results in a square wave of 96 kHz when operating with an
18.432 MHz master clock, or 101.6 kHz when operating from the 13 MHz source.
4-7 Drive 0 from AC: This 4-bit field controls the “on” time for the Drive 0 DC to DC pump, while the
system is powered from a non-battery type power source. Setting these bits to 0 disables this
pump, setting these bits to 1 allows the pump to be driven in a 1:16 duty ratio, 2 in a 2:16 duty
ratio, etc. up to a 15:16 duty ratio. An 8:16 duty ratio results in a square wave of 96 kHz when
operating with an 18.432 MHz master clock, or 101.6 kHz when operating from the 13 MHz
source.
NOTE: The EP7312 monitors the power supply input pins (i.e ., BATOK and NEXTPWR) to
determine which of the above fields to use.
8-11 Drive 1 pump ratio: This 4-bit field controls the “on” time for the drive1 PWM pump. Setting
these bits to 0 disables this pump, while setting these bits to 1 allows the pump to be driven in a
1:16 duty ratio, 2 in a 2:16 duty ratio, etc. up to a 15:16 duty ratio. An 8:16 duty ratio results in a
square wave of 96 kHz when operating with an 18.432 MHz master clock, or 101.6 kHz when
operating from the 13 MHz source.

6.15 CODR — CODEC Interface Data Register

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

10 9 8 7-0
OVERR PARERR FRMERR RX data
The UARTDR registers are 11-bit read and 8-bit write registers for all data transfers to or from the internal UARTs 1 and 2.
Data written to these registers is pushed onto the 16-byte data TX holding FIFO if the FIFO is enabled. If not it is stored in a one byte holding register. This write will initiate transmission from the UART.
The UART data read registers are made up of the 8-bit data byte received from the UART together with three bits of error status. If the FIFO is enabled, data read from this register is popped from the 16 byte data RX FIFO. If the FIFO is not enabled, it is read from a one byte buffer register containing the last byte received by the UART. If it is enabled, data received and error status is automatically pushed onto the RX FIFO. The RX FIFO is 10-bits wide by 16 deep.
Note: These registers should be accessed as words.
Bit Description
8 FRMERR: UART framing error. This bit is set if the UART detected a framing error while receiv-
ing the associated data byte. Framing errors are caused by non-matching word lengths or bit
rates. 9 PARERR: UART parity error. This bit is set if the UART detected a parity error while receiving the
data byte. 10 OVERR: UART over-run error. This bit is set if more data is received by the UART and the FIFO
is full. The overrun error bit is not associated with any single character and so is not stored in the
FIFO. If this bit is set, the entire contents of the FIFO is invalid and should be cleared. This error
bit is cleared by reading the UARTDR register.

WRDLEN FIFOEN XSTOP EVENPRT PRTEN BREAK Bit rate divisor
The bit rate divisor and line control register is a 19-bit read / write register. Writing to these registers sets the bit rate and mode of operation for the internal UARTs.
Bit Description
0-11 BRATED: Bit rate divisor. This 12-bit field sets the bit rate. If the system is operating from the PLL
clock, then the bit rate divider is fed by a clock frequency of 3.6864 MHz, which is then further divided internally by 16 to give the bit rate. The formula to give the divisor value for any bit rate when operating from the PLL clock is: Divisor = (230400/bit rate divisor + 1). A value of zero in this field is illegal when running from the PLL clock. The tables below show some example bit rates with t he corre spond ing di visor v alue. I n 13 MHz m ode, th e clock fr equen cy fed t o the UAR T is 1.8571 MHz. In this mode, zero is a legal divisor value, and will generate the maximum possi­ble bit rate. The tables below show the bit rates available for both 18.432 MHz and 13 MHz oper-
ation.”

12 BREAK: Setting this bit will drive the TX output active (high) to generate a break. 13 PRTEN: Parity enable bit. Setting this bit enables parity detection and generation 14 EVENPRT: Even parity bit. Setting this bit sets parity generation and checking to even parity,
clearing it sets odd parity. This bit has no effect if the PRTEN bit is clear.
15 XSTOP: Extra stop bit. Setting this bit will cause the UART to transmit two stop bits after each
data byte, while clearing it will transmit one stop bit after each data byte.
16 FIFOEN: Set to enable FIFO buffering of RX and TX data. Clear to disable the FIFO (i.e., set its
depth to one byte).

31 30 29-25 24-19 18-13 12-0
GSMD2 GSMD1 AC prescale Pixel prescale Line length Video buffer size
The LCD control register is a 32-bit read / write register that controls the size of the LCD screen and the operating mode of the LCD controller. Refer to the system description of the LCD controller for more information on video buffer mapping
The LCDCON register should only be reprogrammed when the LCD controller is disabled.
Bit Description
0-12 Video buffer size: The video buffer size field is a 13-bit field that sets the total number of bits x
128 (quad words) in the video display buffer. This is calculated from the formula:
Video buffer size = (Total bits in video buffer / 128) – 1
i.e., for a 640 x 240 LCD and 4 bits-per-pixel, the size of the video buffer is equal to 614400 bits.
Video buffer = 640 x 240 x 4=614400 bits Video buffer size field = (614400 / 128) – 1 = 4799 or 0x12BF hex. The minimum value allowed is 3 for this bit field.
13-18 Line length: The line length field is a 6-bit field that sets the number of pixels in one complete
line. This field is calculated from the formula:
line length = (Number of pixels in line / 16) – 1 i.e., for 640 x 240 LCD Line length = (640 / 16) – 1 = 39 or 0x27 hex. The minimum value that can be programmed into this register is a 1 (i.e., 0 is not a legal value).

DS508UM1 97

Bit Description
19-24 Pixel prescale: The pixel prescale field is a 6-bit field that sets the pixel rate prescale. The pixel
rate is always derived from a 36.864 MHz clock when in PLL mode, and is calculated from the formula: Pixel rate (MHz) = 36.864 / (Pixel prescale + 1) When the EP7312 is operating at 13 MHz, pixel rate is given by the formula:
Pixel rate (MHz) = 13 / (Pixel prescale + 1) The pixel prescale value can be expressed in terms of the LCD size by the formula: When the EP7312 is operating @ 18.432 MHz:
Pixel prescale = (36864000 / (Refresh Rate x Total pixels in display)) – 1 When the EP7312 is operating @ 13 MHz: Pixel prescale = (13000000 / (Refresh Rate x Total pixels in display)) – 1 Refresh Rate is the screen refresh frequency (70 Hz to avoid flicker) The value should be rounded down to the nearest whole number and zero is illegal and will result in no pixel clock. EXAMPLE: For a system being operated in the 18.432–73.728 MHz mode, with a 640 x 240 screen size, and 70 Hz screen refresh rate desired, the LCD Pixel prescale equals 36.864E6 / (70 x 640x240) – 1 = 2.428 Rounding 2.428 down to the nearest whole number equals 2. This gives an actual pixel rate of 36.864E6 / (2+1) = 12.288 MHz, which gives an actual refresh frequency of 12.288E6 / (640x240) = 80 Hz. NOTE: As the CL[2] low pulse time i s doubled after every CL[1] hi gh pulse this refresh fre-
quency is only an approximation, the accurate formula is 12.288E6 / ((640x240)+120) = 79.937 Hz.
25-29 AC prescale: The AC prescale field is a 5-bit number that sets the LCD AC bias frequency. This
frequency is the required AC bias frequency for a given manufacturer’s LCD plate. This fre­quency is derived from the frequency of the line clock (CL[1]). The LCD M signal will toggle after n+1 counts of the line clock (CL[1]) where n is the number programmed into the AC prescale field. This number must be chosen to match the manufacturer’s recommendation. This is nor­mally 13, but must not be exactly divisible by the number of lines in the display.
30 GSMD1: Grayscale mode bit number 1. Setting this bit enables 2 or 4 bits-per-pixel (01 or 11,
respectively) grayscaling. (Also see the GSMD2 bit definition.) Clearing this bit enables 1 bpp (00) grayscaling only.
NOTE: Grayscaling is always enabled when using the EP7312 LCD Controller. Direct mapping
of the frame buffer bits to the LCD d isplay is not supported. Ho wever, this can be accomplished by simply programming the palette register contents to correspond with the frame buffer bit value (i.e., for 1 bpp (00) Direct mapping program the PALLSW reg­ister nibble [0-3] with zeros, and nibble [4-7] with ones.)
31 GSMD2: Grayscale mode bit number 2. Setting this bit enables 4 bpp (11) grayscaling (15 gray-
scales.) Clearing this bit enables 2 bits-per-pixel (01) grayscaling.

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

The pixel to grayscale level assignments and the actual physical color and pixel duty ratio for the gray­scale values are shown in Table 54 on page 100. Note that colors 8
15 are the inverse of colors 7–0 respectively. This means that colors 7 and 8 are identical. Therefore, in reality only 15 grayscales available, not 16. The steps in the grayscale are non-linear, but have been chosen to give a close approximation to perceived linear grayscales. The is due to the eye being more sensitive to changes in gray level close to 50% gray (See

This register contains the start address for the LCD Frame Buffer. It is assumed that the frame buffer starts at location 0x000.0000 within each chip select memory region. Therefore, the value stored with­in the FBADDR register is only the value of the chip select where the frame buffer is located. On reset, this will be set to 0xC. The register is 4 bits wide (bits [0-3]). This register must only be reprogrammed when the LCD is disabled (i.e., setting the LCDEN bit within SYSCON2 low).

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