Pin Description
VCCand GND are the power supply pins.
CKI is the clock input. This can come from an external
source, a R/C generated oscillator or a crystal (in conjunction with CKO). See Oscillator description.
RESET
is the master reset input. See Reset description.
PORT L is an 8-bit I/O port.
There are two registers associated to configure the L port: a
data register and a configuration register Therefore, each L
I/O bit can be individually configured under software control
as shown below:
Port L Config. Port L Data
PORT L
Setup
0 0 Hi-Z Input (TRI-STATE)
0 1 Input with Weak Pull-Up
1 0 Push-Pull Zero Output
1 1 Push-Pull One Output
Three data memory address locations are allocated for this
port, one each for data register[00D0], configuration register[00D1]and the input pins[00D2].
PORT G is an 8-bit port with 6 I/O pins (G0–G5) and 2 input
pins (G6, G7).
All eight G-pins have Schmitt Triggers on the inputs.
There are two registers associated to configure the G port:
a data register and a configuration register. Therefore each
G port bit can be individually configured under software control as shown below:
Port G Port G PORT G
Config. Data Setup
0 0 Hi-Z Input (TRI-STATE)
0 1 Input with Weak Pull-Up
1 0 Push-Pull Zero Output
1 1 Push-Pull One Output
Three data memory address locations are allocated for this
port, one for data register[00D4], one for configuration register[00D5]and one for the input pins[00D6]. Since G6
and G7 are Hi-Z input only pins, any attempt by the user to
configure them as outputs by writing a one to the configuration register will be disregarded. Reading the G6 and G7
configuration bits will return zeroes. Note that the chip will
be placed in the Halt mode by writing a ‘‘1’’ to the G7 data
bit.
Six pins of Port G have alternate features:
G0 INTR (an external interrupt)
G3 TIO (timer/counter input/output)
G4 SO (MICROWIRE serial data output)
G5 SK (MICROWIRE clock I/O)
G6 SI (MICROWIRE serial data input)
G7 CKO crystal oscillator output (selected by mask option)
or HALT restart input/general purpose input (if clock option is R/C- or external clock)
Pins G1 and G2 currently do not have any alternate functions.
The selection of alternate Port G functions are done through
registers PSW[00EF]to enable external interrupt and
CNTRL[00EE]to select TIO and MICROWIRE operations.
Functional Description
The internal architecture is shown in the block diagram.
Data paths are illustrated in simplified form to depict how
the various logic elements communicate with each other in
implementing the instruction set of the device.
ALU AND CPU REGISTERS
The ALU can do an 8-bit addition, subtraction, logical or
shift operations in one cycle time. There are five CPU registers:
A is the 8-bit Accumulator register
PC is the 15-bit Program Counter register
PU is the upper 7 bits of the program counter (PC)
PL is the lower 8 bits of the program counter (PC)
B is the 8-bit address register and can be auto incre-
mented or decremented
X is the 8-bit alternate address register and can be auto
incremented or decremented.
SP is the 8-bit stack pointer which points to the subroutine
stack (in RAM).
B, X and SP registers are mapped into the on chip RAM.
The B and X registers are used to address the on chip RAM.
The SP register is used to address the stack in RAM during
subroutine calls and returns. The SP must be preset by software upon initialization.
MEMORY
The memory is separated into two memory spaces: program
and data.
PROGRAM MEMORY
Program memory consists of 768 x 8 ROM. These bytes of
ROM may be instructions or constant data. The memory is
addressed by the 15-bit program counter (PC). There are no
‘‘pages’’ of ROM, the PC counts all 15 bits. ROM can be
indirectly read by the LAlD instruction for table lookup.
DATA MEMORY
The data memory address space includes on chip RAM, I/O
and registers. Data memory is addressed directly by the instruction or indirectly through B, X and SP registers. The
device has 64 bytes of RAM. Sixteen bytes of RAM are
mapped as ‘‘registers’’, these can be loaded immediately,
decremented and tested. Three specific registers: X, B, and
SP are mapped into this space, the other registers are available for general usage.
Any bit of data memory can be directly set, reset or tested.
I/O and registers (except A and PC) are memory mapped;
therefore, I/O bits and register bits can be directly and individually set, reset and tested.
RESET
The RESET input pin when pulled low initializes the microcontroller. Upon initialization, the ports L and G are placed
in the TRl-STATE mode. The PC, PSW and CNTRL registers are cleared. The data and configuration registers for
ports L and G are cleared. The external RC network shown
in
Figure 3
should be used to ensure that the RESET pin is
held low until the power supply to the chip stabilizes.
