The MAXQ3108 is a low-power microcontroller that features two high-performance MAXQ20 cores: a dedicated core (DSPCore) for intensive data processing and a
user core (UserCore) for supervisory functions. The two
cores can operate at different clock speeds, allowing
lower system power consumption for even processing
intensive applications. The UserCore can be configured
to run at the lowest clock rate possible for monitoring
the peripherals for communication activities, while the
DSPCore runs at the highest speed. Each core has
access to an independent math accelerator (a multiply/accumulate unit). The UserCore supports SPI™,

C, two UART channels with one channel supporting
IR carrier modulation, a trimmable real-time clock
(RTC), battery-backed RTC registers, and data memory. The DSPCore is fully user programmable and configurable. With the standard 32,768Hz crystal, the
DSPCore operates at 10.027MHz, while the UserCore
runs at 5.014MHz.

P1.0–P1.3 is the JTAG functions. To use the 4-bit port as standard GPIO, the TAP must be
disabled by user code. This port is accessible to the UserCore only.
Active-Low Reset (RST). The RST pin recognizes external active-low reset inputs and employs
an internal pullup resistor to allow for a combination of wired-OR external reset sources. An RC is
not required for power-up, as this function is provided internally. The RST pin function is enabled
on power-on reset. It i s critical that this pin not be held low externally after a power-on reset or the
device cannot exit the reset state.
The MAXQ3108 microcontroller is an integrated, lowcost solution to simplify the design of electricity metering and industrial control products. Standard features
include two highly optimized, single-cycle, MAXQ 16-bit
RISC microcontroller cores; 64KB of flash memory,
11KB RAM, and independent hardware stacks; general-purpose registers; and data pointers for each core.
Application-specific peripherals include hardware SPI
and I2C masters, real-time clock, programmable pulse
generators, dual UARTs (one of which that supports IR
carrier frequency modulation), and math accelerators.
At the heart of the MAXQ3108 are two MAXQ20 16-bit
RISC microcontrollers. The dual-core approach allows
one core (DSPCore) to be entirely dedicated to collection and processing of AFE samples for the metering
function, while the second core handles any communication and user-specific administrative functions. The
MAXQ3108 DSPCore operates at 10.027MHz with the
default crystal and almost all instructions execute in a
single clock cycle (100ns), while the UserCore runs at
half that frequency (5.014MHz).
The dual-core strategy promotes flexibility by allowing
the update of metering routines and parameters separately in DSPCore code and data memory. Furthermore,
an independent DSPCore solely responsible for accurate metering introduces a measure of safety and reliability since all administrative/communication functions
and interruptions are handled by the UserCore. Both
cores feature standard MAXQ power-saving system
clock-divide modes and independently implement lowpower stop (UserCore) and idle (DSPCore) modes. The
DSPCore implements an idle mode that allows CPU
execution to be halted while awaiting an ADC sample.
The UserCore implements an ultra-low-power stop
mode that automatically disables the DSPCore and
results in a quiescent current consumption of less than
1.5μA. The combination of high performance and corespecific low-power mode implementation provides
increased power efficiency and capability over competitive microcontrollers.
Microprocessor
The MAXQ20 is a low-power implementation of the new
16-bit MAXQ family of RISC cores. The core supports
the Harvard memory architecture with separate 16-bit
program and data address buses, but also provides
pseudo-Von Neumann support through utility ROM
functions. A fixed 16-bit instruction is standard, but
data can be arranged in 8 or 16 bits. The MAXQ20 core
is implemented as a nonpipelined processor with single
clock-cycle instruction execution. The data path is
implemented around register modules, and each register module contributes specific functions to the core.
The accumulator module consists of sixteen 16-bit registers and is tightly coupled to the arithmetic logic unit
(ALU). Program flow is supported by a dedicated 16level-deep hardware stack.
Execution of instructions is triggered by data transfer
between functional register modules, or between a
functional register module and memory. Since data
Pin Description (continued)
PINNAMEFUNCTION
Port 2. Port 2 functions a s both a 7-bit I/O port and as a special function interface to the CF pulse
generator outputs, clock output, and the Manchester ENDEC or SPI. The default reset condition of
the pins is weakly pulled up (input), with exception of P2.5 and P2.6, which are always outputs
and default to strong high. To drive output, either the port direction register must be programmed
to enable output, or the a lternate function module mu st be configured to drive the pins. P2.5 and
P2.6 are accessible to the DSPCore only.
movement involves only source and destination modules, circuit switching activities are limited to active
modules only. For power-conscious applications, this
approach localizes power dissipation and minimizes
switching noise. The modular architecture also provides
maximum flexibility and reusability, which are important
for a microprocessor used in embedded applications.
The MAXQ instruction set is designed to be highly
orthogonal. All arithmetical and logical operations can
use any register along with the accumulator. Data movement is supported from any register to any other register. Memory is accessed through specific data pointer
registers with auto increment/decrement support.
Memory
The MAXQ3108 supports a pseudo-Von Neumann
memory structure that can merge program and data into
a linear memory map. This is accomplished by mapping
the data memory into the program space or mapping
the program memory segment into the data space.
Memory access is under the control of the memory management unit (MMU). During flash programming, the
MMU maps the flash memory into data space, and the
built-in firmware provides necessary controls to the
embedded flash memory for all read/erase/write operations when the ROM loader is invoked. Additionally,
when the DSPCore is disabled, all its code SRAM (8KB)
is mapped into the data SRAM space of the UserCore.
This allows streamlined reconfiguration of the DSP code
memory or a larger data SRAM for applications not
employing DSPCore operation.
The MAXQ3108 incorporates the following:
• 4KB utility ROM
• 64KB program flash
• 2KB SRAM data memory
• 8KB program SRAM (DSPCore)
• 1KB SRAM data memory (DSPCore)
The MMU operates automatically and maps data mem-
ory as a function of the contents of the instruction pointer; that is, the execution location controls the structure
of the data memory map. The only constraint is that no
memory region is available as data when code is being
fetched from that region. For example, when executing
from flash, flash cannot be read as data. But changing
the execution location to the utility ROM through a subroutine call allows the flash memory to be read as data.
A 4K Word (8KB) section of memory is available to the
DSPCore as code memory. When the DSPCore is disabled (as it is immediately following a reset event) that
block of memory appears in the UserCore data memory
map at location 0x1000. Thus, a typical startup
sequence to operate both cores might include:
1) Low-level initialization of the UserCore.
2) Copy DSP code from program flash to DSPCore
code RAM at 0x1000.
3) Enable DSPCore.
4) Poll mailbox registers to verify that DSPCore is correctly running.
For more information, see the
Dual-Core Interfaces
section.
Registers
The MAXQ family of microcontrollers uses a bank of
registers to access memory and peripherals and to perform basic CPU activities. These registers are organized into as many as 16 register modules, each of
which can have as many as 32 registers, giving a system maximum of 512 registers. The registers are divided into two sections: system registers (modules 7 to 15)
and peripheral registers (modules 0 to 5).
Since the MAXQ3108 contains two MAXQ core processors, each has a set of system registers and a set of
peripheral registers.
System Registers
The MAXQ3108 UserCore implements the standard set
of system registers as described in the
MAXQ Family
User’s Guide
. The exceptions are listed below:
• In the IMR register, bit IM5 is not implemented since
there is no module 5 implemented in the MAXQ3108.
• In the SC register, bits CDA1 and UPM are not implemented since the size of the memory in the device
does not require their implementation.
• In the IIR register, bit II5 is not implemented since
there is no module 5 implemented in the MAXQ3108.
• In the CKCN register, bits XT/RC, RGSL, and
RGMD are not implemented. Instead, bits 5 and 6
are FLLMD and FLLSL, respectively. These bits
support the frequency-locked loop (FLL) that forms
a core part of the MAXQ3108 clocking scheme.
More information is given in the
Clock
section.
The MAXQ3108 DSPCore system register complement
is identical to that found in the UserCore, with these
exceptions:
• In the IMR register, only IM0 is implemented.
• The system control (SC) register is not implemented.
• In the IIR register, only the II0 bit is implemented.
• The WDCN register is not implemented because
there is no watchdog timer in the DSPCore.
Watchdog functionality can be implemented in the
UserCore by determining if the DSPCore is responding to messages.
• In the CKCN register, the STOP, RGSL, and SWB bits
are not implemented because the corresponding
functions do not exist in the DSPCore. The FLLMD
and FLLSL bits are not implemented because a common clock block is shared with the UserCore, and
the control bits here would be redundant.
Peripheral Registers—UserCore
The MAXQ3108 UserCore exposes its peripheral complement in five modules numbered 0 to 4. Table 1
describes the functions associated with the peripheral
registers, and Table 2 shows the default values of these
registers.
Initialization: This register is reset to 0xFFFF on all forms of reset.

of the current ADC0 data sample that was acquired from the respect ive sinc3 f ilter. Reading from

the ADC0 register(s) results in the ABF0 flag being cleared by hardware (when set), unless the read
operation is performed simu ltaneou sly with a write. Reading a di sabled ADC returns the data last
acquired if the associated buffer full flag is set and returns FFFFh if the flag is clear.
Unrestricted read acce ss only to the UserCore (except RSPSDV; see the bit description).
Unrestricted read/write access to the DSPCore (except RSPSDV and 3:0; see the bit descriptions).
Response Status Bits 3:0. These bits can be u sed to report acknow ledgement and status of the
current command being processed by the slave and to report slave system conditions (e.g.,
watchdog timeout) that are not related to a ma ster command. To notify the master that status is
ready to be read, the RSP0DV bit shou ld be set to 1 either by software (in the case of command
status) or, in some cases, by hardware (as for the watchdog). In cases where slave hardware sets
the status bits, these bits are not writable by slave software until the status condition has been
cleared.
When the DSPCore watchdog timer reaches FFFFh, a system interrupt from the DSPCore is signaled
by the setting of the SRSP0.5 status flag along with the SRSP0.[3:0] status code of 0000b. This
hardware condit ion for the SRSP0 register persists (prevent ing software writes of these bits by the
DSPCore) until a reset of the DSPCore is executed (UserCore may disable the DSPCore through
ENDSP = 0 to force the reset).
Request Registers Interrupt Enable. Setting this bit to 1 enables an interrupt for the master
request-command data valid (interrupt) flag (REQCDV). The master request-command data valid
flag is reported in MREQ0.5 (and the associated command code is contained in MREQ0.[3:0]).
Clearing thi s bit to 0 disable s the interrupt associated with the master request-command data va lid
flag.
Response Status Data Valid Flag. This f lag can only be set by the slave (DSPCore) or slave
hardware once a va lid status or system interrupt condition is supplied in the RSPST[3:0] field of the
SRSP0 register to notif y the master that valid status is read y for reading. Status information or data
could also be contained in SRSP1, so the slave should only set this flag when all data has been
loaded (included any that is loaded to SRSP1). This flag can onl y be cleared by the master
(UserCore) software unle ss the status condition that caused hardware to set the flag persists (e.g.,
slave watchdog counter timeout). If made ava ilable by the slaveCPU, more information can be
ascertained about the status by additional master request read commands.

Analog-to-Digital Converter 0 Least Significant Byte Output Register. This register always provides
read access to the least significant byte of the most current ADC0 data sample acquired from the
respective sinc3 filter. See the below table for the least significant byte available OSR options.
Reading from the AD0 register results in the ABF0 f lag being cleared by hardware (when set)
unless the read operation is performed simultaneously with a write. What this means is that when
OSR > 32, AD0LSB should be read first if the clearing of ABF0 is intended to indicate that the full
result (AD0LSB and AD0) was read. Reading a disabled ADC returns the data la st acquired if the
assoc iated buffer full flag is set and returns FFFFh if the flag is clear.

Response Registers Interrupt Enable. Setting this bit to 1 enables an interrupt for the slave
response status data valid flag (which is a ss ociated with Response Registers 0 and 1). The status
data va lid (interrupt) flag is reported in SRSP0.5. Clearing this bit to 0 disables the interrupt
assoc iated with the respon se status data valid flag.
Request Command Data Valid Flag. This f lag can only be set by the master (UserCore). This flag
should be set once a valid command is supplied in the REQCM[3:0] field of the MREQ0 and/or data
supplied in the MREQ1, MREQ2 registers to notif y the s lave that the se registers are ready for
reading. This flag can only be cleared by slave (DSPCore) software.

Manchester decoder 2 when MD2E = 1). When the PO bit = 0, single-ended mode is in effect. When
PO bit = 1, differential mode is in effect. When MD2E is configured to logic 0, these hardware
blocks are disabled. This bit is write acce ssible on ly to the UserCore.
Manchester Decoders Clock Speed Select. This bit must be configured to tell the Manchester
decoders whether a fast or slow bit-stream sampling clock is used. When configured to 0, the
decoders e xpect that the sampling clock is faster than the clock source being used b y the AD02
modulator(s). When configured to 1, the decoders expect that the sampling clock is s lower that
than being used by the AD02.
ADC Interrupt Flags 1 and 0 Enable. This bit serves a s the loca l interrupt enable for the ADC cubic
sinc filter output buffers 1 and 0.

ADC Interrupt Flags 5 and 4 Enable. This bit serves a s the loca l interrupt enable for the ADC cubic
sinc filter output buffers 5 and 4.
ADC Interrupt Flag Core Select. This bit controls the routing and the ability to clear the ADC
interrupt flags. When this bit is configured to 0, the ADC interrupt capability and the ability to clear
the associated flags belongs to the UserCore. When this bit is configured to 1, only the DSPCore
can be interrupted and has the ability to clear the interrupt flags. This bit is write accessible only to
the UserCore.
ADC Clock Correction Value 15:0. This value reflect s the count (measurement) of decoder sync
bits during the predefined duration of 32 kHz x 2
The clock correction facilit y is enabled on any write to the CCSL[1:0] bits (other than the 11b
disable request). The ADCC register reads 0000h to indicate a bus y (measu ring) condition unti l the
measurement completes, at which point, the ADCC register is updated.
Manchester Decoder 0 Synchronization Status Bit. This bit reflects the synchronization status of
Manchester decoder 0. When the decoder has achieved synchronizat ion, thi s bit i s set to 1. When
the decoder cannot or ha s not yet detected the required alternating synchronization bit in the
Manchester bit stream, this bit is cleared to 0. Once synchronized, lo ss of synchronization is
signaled ( i.e., b it i s c leared) once three sync bit errors are detected in 10 frames. If fewer than three
errors are detected in 10 frames, the synchronization bit error counter restarts on the next sync bit
error.
Manchester Decoder 1 Synchronization Status Bit. This bit reflects the synchronization status of
Manchester decoder 1. When the decoder has achieved synchronizat ion, thi s bit i s set to 1. When
the decoder cannot or ha s not yet detected the required alternating synchronization bit in the

Clock Correction Hardware Selection Bits 1:0. These bits are used to enable and assign the
clock measurement hardware to one of the three Manche ster decoders. When these bits are 11b,
the clock measurement utility is disabled. Writing these bits to any other state enables one clock
measurement interval. When the clock measurement interval is enabled, the ADCC output register
is cleared to 0000h to indicate a busy (mea suring) condition. No hardware protection is in place to
prevent attempts to measure a disabled decoder, which wou ld result in see ing a persistent busy
(ADCC = 0000h) condition. The table below summarizes the measurement options.

Interrupt Edge Detect Bits 7:0. These bits are set when a negative edge (ITx = 1) or a positive
edge (ITx = 0) is detected on the interrupt x pin. Setting any of the bits to 1 generate s an interrupt to

Enable External Interrupt Bits 11:8. Setting any of these bits to 1 enables the corresponding
external interrupt. Clearing any of the bits to 0 disables the corresponding interrupt function.
Port 0 Direction Register Bits 7:0. PD0 is used to determine the direction of the Port 0 function. The
port pins are independently controlled by their direction bits. When a bit is set to 1, its corresponding
pin is used as an output; data in the PO register is driven on the p in. When a bit is cleared to 0, its
corresponding pin is used as an input, and allows an external signal to drive the pin. Note that each
port pin has a weak pul lup circuit when functioning as an input and the p-channel pullup transistor is
controlled by its respective PO bits. If the PO bit is set to 1, the weak pullup is on; if the PO bit is
cleared to 0, the weak pullup i s off and forces the port pin into three-state.
Port 1 Direction Register Bits 6:0. PD1 is used to determine the direction of the port 1 function.
The port pins are independently controlled by their direction bit. When a bit is set to 1, its
corresponding pin i s u sed as an output; data in the PO register is driven on the pin. When a bit is
cleared to 0, its corresponding pin is used as an input, and allows an external signal to drive the
pin. Note that each port pin has a weak pullup circuit when functioning as an input and the pchannel pullup trans istor is controlled by its respective PO bits. If the PO bit is set to 1, the weak
pullup is on; if the PO bit is cleared to 0, the weak pullup is off and forces the port pin into threestate. Special note about P1.6: The RST input function remains enabled on P1.6 unless it is

bit i s set and cleared by hardware only. SVMTH can only be written to when the supply vo ltage
monitor is di sabled (SVMEN = 0).
Supply Voltage Monitor Enable. Setting thi s bit to 1 enables the monitoring of suppl y voltage
according to SVMTH settings. Clearing this bit to 0 disables the suppl y voltage monitor ing
circuitry.
Supply Voltage Monitor Ready. This bit is set to 1 to ind icate that the supply voltage monitor is
ready for use. This bit i s cleared to 0 when SVMEN = 0 or on entrance to stop mode if SVMSTOP = 0.
Supply Voltage Monitor Interrupt Enable. Setting this bit to 1 generates an interrupt to the CPU
when SVMI is set to 1. Clearing this bit to 0 disables the interrupt from generating.
Supply Voltage Monitor Interrupt. This bit is set to 1 when the supply voltage falls below the set
point defined by SVTH. Clearing this bit to 0 c lears the interrupt. However, if the suppl y voltage i s
still below the set point, this flag is set again. Setting this bit to 1 causes an interrupt to the CPU
when SVMIE = 1.
Supply Voltage Monitor Stop Mode Enable. Setting this bit to 1 enables the supply voltage monitor
circuit to operate during stop mode if SVMEN = 1. Clearing this bit to 0 disable s the supply voltage
monitor when stop mode is enabled.
Supply Voltage Threshold Bits [3:0]. These bits are used to se lect a user-defined supply voltage
threshold under which an interrupt is generated to the CPU if enabled. The level can be adjusted
from 2.0V to 3.5V in a 0.1V increment. The supply voltage monitor is enabled by setting SVMEN =
1. The default value is 07h (2.7V).
Supply Voltage Monitor Threshold = 2.0V + SVMTH[3:0] x 0.1V
Note that the SVTH bits can only be modified when SVMEN = 0. Writing to these bits is ignored if

register is not accessible by program code ins ide the flash memory because of the rule governing
the pseudo-Von Neumann mapping. Access is blocked by hardware.) Also, write access to FCNTL
is prohibited when FBUSY is 0.
Flash Command Bits 2:0. The below table shows the commands for flash operations provided by
these bits. The MMU supports only these commands; other settings are reser ved. Using any
reserved command results in no operation.

PWCN.1: FLOCK
Unrestricted read, write accessible only b y ut il ity ROM or logical data memory. (This register i s not
accessible for program code inside the flash memory due to the rule governing the pseudo-Von
Neumann mapping.). Also, write access to FCNTL is prohibited when FBUSY is 0.
Thi s register is used by the user software or the ROM loader to support the f lash
erase/program/verify operation. Writing to this SFR has no effect on flash operation until a va lid
fla sh command is first entered through the FC[2:0] bits of the FCNTL SFR. All fla sh operation must
be initiated by providing a valid command in the FCNTL control register followed by writing target
address and data by the FDATA SFR (when required by the command).
Implemented register bits (except for the ECLKO and ENDSP bit) are unaffected by resets other than
power-on reset. The ECLKO and ENDSP bits are reset to 0 on any reset. On power-on reset, this
register is reset to 0000h (except that HFXD is 1 for PCK = 11b).
FLL Lock Enable. Setting this bit to 1 enables the FLL if it is not already running, and causes it to
lock to the 32K input. When this bit is cleared to 0, the FLL is disabled if it is not providing the
system clock.
FLL Locked. This is a read-only statu s bit. Th is bit is automatically reset to 0 when FLLEN is

hardware should not be used when the CLKO output is enabled. The ECLKO bit can be used in the
hybrid configuration to al low the test sy stem clock to be routed to the DS8102 CLKIO pin.
Reset Pin Disable. When set to a logic 1, the reset input function is disconnected from the external
RST pin. The port pin can then be used for other purposes. When cleared to a logic 0, the reset
input function is connected to the external pin; however, the port directional and output controls
still apply. This bit defaults to 0 on power-on reset on ly.
Regulator Enable. When set to 1, the internal regulator remains powered on when the device is
placed in stop mode. When cleared to 0, the internal regulator is shut down to con serve power. The
regulator i s always enab led outside of stop mode, independent of the REGEN bit setting.
Brownout-Detection Disable. This bit determines whether the brownout detection is enabled in stop
mode when the regulator is off (REGEN = 0). When the regulator is enabled (as in normal operation
or when REGEN = 1 in stop mode), the brownout detection is alwa ys enabled, independent of the
BOD bit setting. Otherwise, when set to 1, the brownout reset detection for V

the brownout reset comparator is shut down. When configured to 0 with REGEN = 0, the brownoutdetection function is enabled for detecting the condition V
Enable DSPCore. This active-high bit is cleared to 0 on any UserCore reset and when the
UserCore invoke s stop mode. When cleared, the DSPCore is completely dis abled. This bit is
read/write accessible only to the UserCore so that it controls when the slave DSPCore is allowed to
operate. When this bit is written to 1, the DSPCore is removed from reset and is allowed to operate.
Thi s register is battery bac ked through POR so long as V
is indeterminate on the very first POR and mu st be configured initially by the user. This register is
unaffected by other reset s.
Battery-Backed Register 0 Bits 15:0. This register is intended for quick and convenient storage of

Unrestricted read, write access only when the WE = 1 and BUSY = 0. An attempted write operation
is not complete until hardware clears the BUSY bit.
RTC Trim Calibration Register Bits 6:0. These register bits provide a binary value between 00h–
7Fh, which is used for adjusting 32K clocks insertion/removal. At every 10-second interval, the
number of 32K cloc ks equal to the RTRM[6:0] numeric va lue is in serted/removed from the RTC
counter depending on the value in the TSGN bit. The trim bit s are write protected by WE. WE must
be set to 1 for the bits to be updated.
RTC Trim Sign Bit. This register bit selects whether 32K clocks are inserted (TSGN = 0) or
removed (TSGN = 1).
This register is initialized to 0sssss000000100sb on all forms of reset. Bits 14–10 and bit 0 are
battery bac ked through POR so long as V
are indeterminate on the very f irst POR and must be configured by the user, but are unaffected by
other resets.
Unrestricted read. Bit 0 (RTCE) is write accessible on ly when WE = 1 and BUSY = 0. Bits 3 (BUSY)
and 13 (32KRDY) are read-only. B it 4 can be cleared to 0 when RTCE = 1; it can never be set to 1
by software. Bit 15 is unrestricted write. All other bits are write accessible only when BUSY = 0.
Real-Time Clock Enable. The RTCE is the real-time enable bit. Setting this bit to logic 1 activates
the clocking by allowing the divided clock to the ripple counters. Clearing this bit to logic 0
disables the clock.
Alarm Time-of-Day Enable. The ADE bit i s the RTC’s time-of-day alarm enable and mu st be set to
logic 1 for the alarm to generate a system interrupt request. When the ADE is cleared to logic 0, the
time-of-day alarm is disabled; no interrupt is generated even the alarm is set.
Alarm Subsecond Enable. The ASE bit is the RTC’s subsecond timer enable and must be set to
logic 1 for the subsecond alarm to generate a sy stem interrupt request. When the ASE is cleared to
logic 0, the subsecond alarm is disabled; no interrupt is generated even the alarm is set.
RTC Busy. This bit i s set to 1 by hardware when an y of the following conditions occur:
1) System reset.
2) Software writes to RTC count registers or trim register.
3) Software changes RTCE, ASE, or ADE.
For conditions 2) and 3), the write or change should not be con sidered complete until hardware
clears the BUSY bit. This is an indication that a 32kHz synchronized version of the register bit(s) is
in place.
RTC Ready. This bit is set to 1 by hardware when the RTC count registers update. It can be cleared
to 0 by software at an y time. It is also cleared to 0 by hardware just prior to an update of the RTC
count register. This bit can generate an interrupt if the RDYE bit is set to 1.
RTC Ready Enable. Setting this bit to 1 allows a system interrupt to be generated when RDY
becomes activ e (if interrupts are enabled globally and modularly). C learing thi s bit to 0 disable s

Alarm Time-of-Day Flag. This bit is set when the contents of RTSH and RTSL counter registers
match the 20-bit value in the RASH and RASL alarm registers. Setting the ALDF causes an interrupt
request to the CPU if the ADE is set and interrupt is allowed at the system level. This flag must be
cleared by software once set. Thi s alarm is qualified as a wake up to the stop and the switchback
function if its interrupt has not been masked.
Alarm Subsecond Flag. This bit i s set when the subsecond timer has been reloaded by the RSSA
register. Setting the ALSF causes an interrupt request to the CPU if the ASE is set and the interrupt is
allowed at the system level. Thi s flag must be cleared by software once set. This alarm is qualified
as a wake up to the stop and the switchback function if its interrupt have not been ma sked.
RTC Square-Wave Output Enable. Setting this bit to a logic 1 enab les either the 1Hz tap or the
512Hz tap of the RTC to the SQW pin. When cleared to 0, the SQW pin is not driven by the RTC.
Because the P1.3 pin has two possible special function outputs, the SQW special function takes
priority over the JTAG TDO specia l function output if both are enabled.
RTC Frequency Test. This register bit selects the frequency output that is poss ible on the SQW pin
if the square-wave output is enabled. Setting FT = 1 se lect s the 512Hz output (when SQE = 1) while
FT = 0 selects the 1Hz output (when SQE = 1). This bit has no function if the square-wave output is
disabled.
32K Oscillator Mode Bits [1:0]. These two bits determine the 32K oscillator operation modes as
shown in the below table. Changing the value of these bits when the 32K input is enabled (X32D =

32K Bypass Enable. Setting this bit to 1 disables the internal oscillator circuitry connected
between the internal CX1 and CX2 pin s. In this configuration, any peripheral that is us ing the 32K
input can be driven e xternally by a cloc k signa l prov ided on the CX1 pin. C learing this bit to 0
enables the internal crystal oscillator circuitry. When the internal oscillator circuitry is enabled,
250ms are required before the crystal oscillator has warmed up. This bit can only be changed
when RTCE = 0. Note that this bit has no effect when X32D is set to 1.
32K Input Ready. This bit is set to 1 by hardware after the 32K oscillator has warmed up and is
ready to source as input to system clock or peripherals. This bit is cleared to 0 when X32D is set
to 1 or when X32D = 0 and 32KMD values ha ve changed to require the 32K circuitry to warm up.
User application should check that the 32K input is ready (32KRDY = 1) before enabling any
peripherals that use the 32K input as time base; otherwise timing accuracy i s compromised. This
bit is read-only.
32K External Input Disable. Setting this bit to 1 disables the 32K circuitry. No external 32K clock
source is accepted. Clearing this bit to 0 enables the 32K circuitry. The source of the input is
configured through the 32KBYP bit. This b it can only be changed when RTCE = 0. Note: If X32D = 0
in stop mode, the 32K source is still available in stop mode.

T2CNA (00h, 02h) Timer 2 Control Register A
Initialization: This register is cleared to 00h on all forms of reset.
Read/Write Access: Unrestricted read/write.
Gating Enable. This bit enables the external T2P pin to gate the input clock to the 16-bit (T2MD =
0) or highest 8-bit (T2MD = 1) timer. Gating uses T2P as an input, thus it can only be used when
T2OE0 = 0 and C/T2 = 0. Gating is not possible on the low 8-bit timer (T2L) when timer 2 is
operated in dual 8-bit mode. Gating does not make sense when counter operation is selected as
T2CNA.0: G2EN
the T2 input is being counted. The G2EN bit serves a different purpose when capture and reload
have been defined for both edges (CCF[1:0] = 11b and CPRL2 = 1). For this special case, setting
G2EN = 1 allows the T2POL0 bit to specify which edge does not cause a reload. If T2POL0 is 0,
there is no reload on the falling edge; if T2POL0 is 1, there i s no reload on the rising edge.
0 = gating disabled
1 = gating enabled
Special Function Register Bit Descriptions (continued)
Single Shot. This bit is used to automatically override or delay the effect of the TR2 bit setting. The
single-shot bit is only useful in the timer mode of operation (C/T2 = 0) and should not be set to 1
when the counter mode of operation is enabled (C/T2 = 1).
Compare Mode: If SS2 is written to a 1 wh ile in compare mode, one cyc le of the defined waveform
(reload to o verflow) is output to the T2P, T2PB pins as prescribed by T2POL1:0 and T2OE[1:0]
controls. The only time that this does not immediately occur is when a gating condition is also
defined. If a gating condition is defined, the single-shot cycle cannot occur until the gating
condition is remo ved. If the specified nongated leve l is already in effect, the single- shot period
T2CNA.1: SS2
T2CNA.2: CPRL2
T2CNA.3: TR2
T2CNA.4: TR2L
T2CNA.5: T2POL0
starts. The gated single-shot output is not supported in dual 8-bit mode.
Capture Mode: If SS2 is written to a 1 while in capture mode, the timer is hal ted and the single-shot
capture cycle does not begin until 1) the edge specified b y CCF[1:0] i s detected or 2) the defined
gating condition is removed. Once running, the timer continue s running (as allowed by the gate
condition) until the defined capture s ingle-shot edge is detected. In this way , the SS2 bit can be
used to dela y the running of a timer until an edge is detected (setting both SS2 and TR2 = 1) or
override the TR2 = 0 bit setting for one capture cyc le (setting only SS2 = 1). When both edges are
defined for capture CCF[1:0] = 11b, the T2POL0 bit serves to define the single-shot start/end edge:
falling edge if T2POL0 = 1; rising edge if T2POL0 = 0. No interrupt flag is set when the starting
edge for the single-shot capture cycle is detected. The single-shot capture cycle always ends
when the next s ingle-shot edge i s detected. The start/end edge is defined by T2POL0. This bit is
intended to automate pulse-width measurement (low or high) and duty cyc le/period mea surement.
Capture and Reload Enable. This bit enables a reload (in addition to a capture) on the edge
specified by CCF[1:0] when operating in capture/reload mode (C/T2 = 0). If both edges are defined
for capture/reload (CCF[1:0] = 11b), enabling the gating control (G2EN = 1) allows the T2POL0 bit to
be used to prevent a reload on one of the edges. If T2POL0 is 0, no reload on the falling edge; if
T2POL[0] is 1, no reload on the rising edge.
0: capture on edge(s) specified by CCF[1:0] bits
1: capture and reload on edge(s) spec ified by CCF[1:0] bits
Timer 2 Run Enable. Thi s bit starts/stop timer 2. In the dual 8-bit mode of operation, this bit applies
only to the T2H timer/counter. Otherwise, the bit applies to the full 16-bit T2H:T2L timer/counter.
When the timer is stopped (TR2 = 0), the timer registers hold their count. The single-shot bit (SS2)
can override and/or delay the effect of the TR2 bit.
0: timer 2 stopped
1: timer 2 run
Timer 2 Low Run Enable. This bit starts/stops the low 8-bit timer (T2L) when dual 8-bit mode (T2MD
= 1) is in effect. This bit has no effect when T2MD = 0.
0: timer 2 low stopped
1: timer 2 low run
Timer 2 Polarity Select 0. When the timer 2 output function has been enabled (T2OE0 = 1), the
polarity select b it defines the starting log ic level for the T2P output waveform. When T2POL0 = 0,
the starting state for the T2P output is logic-low. When T2POL0 = 1, the starting state for the T2P
output is logic-high. The T2POL0 bit can be modified any time, but takes effect on the external pin
when T2OE0 is changed from 0 to 1. When the timer 2 pin is being u sed a s an input (T2OE0 = 0),
the polarity select bit define s wh ich logic leve l can be used to gate the timer input clock (when
CCF[1:0]<>11b). When CCF[1:0] = 11b, T2POL0 defines which edge can start/stop a single-shot
capture and which edge reload can be sk ipped (if CPRL2 = 1 and G2EN = 1).

operand is written to either the MA or the MB register. This bit has no meaning if the SQU bit is s et.
This bit has no effect on division.
Square-Function Enable. Thi s bit is u sed to support hardware square function. When this bit is set
to logic 1, a square operation is initiated after an operand is written to either the MA or the MB
register. Writing data to either of the operand registers writes to both registers and triggers a square
calculation. Setting this bit to 1 also disables the OPCS function. When this bit is cleared to logic
0, the hardware square function is disabled. This bit has no effect on division.
Clear Data Register. This bit is used to initia lize the operand registers and the accumulator of the
multiplier. The contents of all fi ve data registers and the OF bit are cleared to 0 and the sequence
counter is reset immediately after the CLD is set. This bit is cleared by hardware automatically. If
an operation i s in progress (DIVSZ = 1) when th is bit is s et to 1, t he operation is aborted and th e
contents of al l data registers and the OF bit are cleared to 0. Writing this bit to 0 cau ses no
operation.
MC Register Write Select. The state of the MCW bit determine s if a mult ipl ication operation result
is placed into the accumulator register (MC):
If MCW is 0, the result is written to the MC register.
If MCW is 1, the result is not placed into the MC register and the content of the MC register is not
changed. This bit has no effect on division.
Overflow Flag. This b it is set to logic 1 when an overflow occurred for the last operation. This bit is
automatically cleared to 0 following a reset, starting a multiplier/division operation or the sett ing of
the CLD bit to 1.

SPI Enable. Setting thi s bit to 1 enables the SPI module and its baud-rate generator for SPI
operation. Clearing this b it to 0 disable s the SPI module and its baud-rate generator.
Master Mode Enable. MSTM functions as a master-mode enable bit for the SPI module. When
MSTM is set to 1, the SPI operates as a ma ster. When MSTM is cleared to 0, the SPI module
operates in slave mode. Note that this bit can be set from 0 to 1 only when the SSEL signal is
deasserted.
Mode Fault Enable. When set to a logic 1 in ma ster mode, this bit enables the use of SSEL input as
a mode fault signal; when cleared to 0, the SSEL has no function and its port pin can be used for
other purposes. In slave mode, the SSEL pin alwa ys function s as a slave-select input s igna l to the
SPI module, independent of the setting of the MODFE bit.
Mode Fault Flag. This bit i s the mode fault flag when the SPI is operating as a master. When modefault detection is enabled as MODFE = 1 in master mode, a detect ion of a high-to-low transition on
the SSEL pin signifies a mode fault and sets the MODF to 1. This bit must be cleared to 0 by
software once set. Setting this bit to 1 by software causes an interrupt if enabled. This flag has no
meaning in slave mode.
Write Collision Flag. This bit indicates a write collision when set to 1. This is caused by
attempting to write to the SPIB whi le a transfer cycle is in progress. Thi s bit must be cleared to 0 b y
software once set. Setting this bit to 1 by software causes an interrupt if enabled.
Receive Overrun Flag. This bit indicates a receive overrun when set to 1. This is caused by two or
more characters that have been received since the last read by the processor. The newer data is
lost. This bit must be cleared to 0 by software once set. Setting this bit to 1 by software causes an
interrupt if enabled.
SPI Transfer Complete Flag. This bit indicates the completion of a transfer cycle when set to 1.
Thi s bit must be cleared to 0 by software once set. Setting this bit to 1 by software causes an
interrupt if enabled.
SPI Transfer Busy Flag. This bit is used to indicate the current status of the SPI module. STBY is
set to 1 when starting an SPI transfer cycle and is cleared to 0 when the transfer cycle is
completed. This bit is controlled by hardware and is read-only for user software.

Clock Phase Select. This bit is used with the CKPOL bit to determine the SPI transfer format. When
the CKPHA is set to 1, the SPI samples input data at an inactive edge. When the CKPHA is cleared
to 0, the SPI samples input data at an active edge.
Character Length Bit. The CHR bit determines the character length for an SPI transfer cycle. A
character can consist of 8 or 16 bits in length. When CHR bit is 0, the character is 8 bits; when
CHR is set to 1, the character is 16 bits.
SPI Interrupt Enable. Setting this bit to 1 enables the SPI interrupt when the MODF, WCOL, ROVR,
or SPIC flags are set. C learing this bit to 0 disables the SPI interrupt.
Clock Divide Ratio Bit 7:0. These bits select one of the 256 divide ratios (0 to 255) used for the
baud-rate generator, with bit 7 as the most significant bit. The frequency of the SPI baud rate is
calculated using the following equat ion:
SPI Baud Rate = 0.5 x System Clock/(Divide Ratio + 1)

Phase Register 1 15:0. This register is used to load and read the 16-bit valu e in the phase register
that determines the baud rate for the serial port 1.
Capture/Reload Select. Th is bit determines whether the capture or reload function is used for timer
B. Timer B function s in an autoreload mode following each overflow/underflow. See the TFB bit
description for overflow/underflow condition. Setting this b it to 1 cause s a timer B capture to occur
when a falling edge is detected on TBB if EXENB is 1. Clearing this bit to 0 causes an autoreload
to occur when timer B overflow or a falling edge is detected on TBB if EXENB is 1. It is not intended
that the timer B compare functionality should be used when operating in capture mode.
Enable Timer B Interrupt. Setting this bit to 1 enables the interrupt from the timer B TFB and EXFB
flags in TBCN. In timer B clock output mode (TBOE = 1), the timer overflow flag (TFB) is still set on
an overflow; however, the TBOE = 1 condition prevents this flag from causing an interrupt when
ETB = 1.
Timer B Run Control. This bit enables timer B operation when set to 1. Clea ring this bit to 0 halts
timer B operation and preserves the current count in TBV.
Timer B External Enable. Setting this bit to 1 enables the capture/reload function on the TBB pin
for a negative transition (in upcounting mode). A reload results in TBV being reset to 0000h.
Clearing thi s bit to 0 causes timer B to ignore all external event s on TBB pin. When operating in
autoreload mode (CP/RLB = 0) with the PWM output functionality enabled, enabling the TBB input
function (EXENB = 1) al lows th e PWM output negat ive tran s it io ns to set the EXFB flag. However, no
reload occurs a s a result of the external negative-edge detection.
Down-Count Enable. This bit, in conjunction with the TBB pin, controls the direction that timer B
counts in 16-bit autoreload mode. Clearing this bit to 0 causes timer B to count up only. Setting
this bit to 1 enables the up/down counting mode (i.e., it causes timer B to count up if the TBB pin
is 1 and to count down if the TBB pin is 0). When timer B PWM output mode functionality is
enabled along with up/down count ing (DCEN = 1), the up/down count control of timer B is
controlled internall y based upon the count in relation to the register setting s. In the compare
modes, the DCEN bit controls whether the timer counts up and resets (DCEN = 0), or counts up and
down (DCEN = 1).

function as either a standard port pin or a counter input for timer B.
External Timer B Trigger Flag. When configured as a timer (C/TB = 0), a negative transition on the
TBB pin causes this flag to be set if (CP/RLB = EXENB = 1) or (CP/RLB = DCEN = 0 and EXENB =
1) or (CP/RLB = 0 and EXENB = 1 and TBCS:T BCR< >00b). When configured in any of these ways,
this flag can be set independent of the state of the TRB bit (e.g., EXFB can still be set on detect ion
of a negative edge when TRB = 0). When CP/RLB = 0 and DCEN = 1 and TBCS:TBCR = 00b, EXFB
toggles whenever timer B underflows or overflows.
An o verflow/underflow cond ition i s the same as de scribed in the TFB b it description. In this mode,
EXFB can be used as the 17th timer bit and does not cause an interrupt. If set by a negative
transition, this flag must be cleared by software. Setting this bit to 1 force s a timer interrupt if
enabled.
Timer B Overflow Flag. This bit is set when timer B overflow s from TBR or the count is equal to
0000h in down-count mode. It must be cleared by software.
Timer B Clock Prescaler Bits 2:0. The TBPS[2:0] bits select the clock prescaler applied to the
system clock input to timer B. The TBPS[2:0] bits should be configured by the user when the timer
is stopped (TRB = 0). While hardware does not prevent changing the TBPS[2:0] bits when the timer
is running, the resultant behavior is indeterministic.

enabled.
Counter/Timer Select. This bit determines whether timer B functions as a timer or counter. Setting
this bit to 1 causes timer B to count negative transitions on the TBA pin. Clearing this bit to 0
causes timer B to function as a timer. The speed of timer B is determined by the TBPS[2:0] bits of

Peripherals
This section contains detailed descriptions for each
peripheral device, however, many of the peripherals
are described in detail in the

Pins
Most of the peripheral devices on the MAXQ3108
require connections to other components. To minimize
the pin count, some peripherals share pins with other
peripherals. Obviously, only one peripheral can drive a
pin at any given time. Table 5 provides information on
how to use these multipurpose pins.

All functional units in the MAXQ3108 are synchronized
to the system clock. The system clock can be generated from an internal oscillator with a 32,768Hz external
crystal/resonator or an internal FLL oscillator. The basic

half the internal clock frequency. The Manchester
decoders, cubic sinc filters, and the DSPCore all
receive the undivided system clock.

• Internal FLL, optionally driven by the 32,768Hz external crystal or resonator
The 32,768Hz external crystal provides the clock reference for functional units that require a fixed frequency.
When the 32,768Hz clock reference is used directly as
the system clock, the MAXQ3108 is operating in powersaving mode.
When not operating in power-saving mode, the
MAXQ3108 receives its clock from the FLL. Because
the MAXQ3108 has no way to receive a high-frequency
clock from an external crystal or other source, the FLL
is the only source of a high-frequency clock.
The FLL
must
be selected as the clock source for
normal operation. This selection is made through the
FLLSL bit. The FLLSL bit controls selection of the internal FLL oscillator for system clock generation. When
FLLSL = 1, the internal FLL oscillator is used for system
clock generation. The FLLSL bit is read/write accessible at any time and defaults to logic 0 on power-on
reset only. One of the first tasks user software
should perform is to set the FLLSL bit to 1.
During a power-on reset, the 32,768Hz crystal amplifier
is automatically enabled. To disable the internal crystal
amplifier, the PWCN.X32D bit must be set to 1. Once
the 32,768Hz crystal amplifier is enabled, 250ms is
required for it to warm up. The PWCN.32KRDY bit is set
to 1 once the 32,768Hz amplifier has been given sufficient time to warm up.
32,768Hz Crystal Oscillator
The external 32K clock source can operate in different
modes according to the setting of the 32K mode bits
(PWCN.32KMD). In normal operation, the 32K oscillator
is operating in the noise immune mode (32KMD = 00),
which is more tolerant to system noise. If the system is
operating in a very quiet environment, the oscillator can
be switched to quiet mode (32KMD = 01) with reduced
current consumption. Note that in this mode, the oscillator is subject to system noise and may not be desirable
for very accurate timing requirement.
For applications where low stop-mode current is
desired, there is an option to invoke the quiet mode
operation during stop mode. When 32KMD = 1x, the
quiet mode is invoked on entry to stop mode. If 32KMD
= 10 and 32K is enabled (X32D = 0), the CPU is held in
stop mode until the 32K oscillator has warmed up
(32KRDY = 1). If 32KMD = 11, the CPU starts execution
from the selected clock source after the required FLL
cycles requirement, in parallel with the oscillator
warmup (transition from quiet mode to noise immune
mode).
When the 32K input is enabled (X32D = 0), changes of
the 32KMD bits reset the 32KRDY bit if the 32K circuitry
is already opening in the quiet mode and the new setting requires to change to noise immune mode. When
the oscillator is operating in quiet mode, no warmup
time is required and, therefore, 32KRDY is always set to
1. If the operation mode is changed to noise immune
mode from the quiet mode, the 32KRDY bit is reset to 0.
The 32KRDY bit is set to 1 after the necessary warmup
time requirement.
Frequency-Locked Loop (FLL)
The internal FLL offers the least expensive solution for
clock generation. The FLL provides a maximum frequency of 306 times the CX1 input clock (32.768kHz x
306 = 10.027MHz) with ±5% when locked with
32.768kHz quartz crystal source. The lock period for
the FLL is about 64 cycles of the CX1 input clock
(approximately 2ms).
Controlling the FLL: The FLL has a lock-enable bit
(FLLEN) to initiate the locking mechanism to the 32K
input source. The FLOCK bit indicates to the user that
the FLL is locked and ready to be used. The FLL has a
short warmup period where the FLL is running but is not
locked. The FLOCK bit indicates that the FLL is running
and locked to the CX1 input. The FLL oscillator clock is
divided down according to the PMME.
Internal clocks are generated directly from the system
clock. Normally, the system clock is sourced from one
of the two clock sources. The effect of the PMME and
CD bits on the system clock in the MAXQ3108 is summarized in Table 6.
When the 32,768Hz clock is selected as the system
clock source (PMME, CD1, CD0 = 111b), the system is
running at PMM2 mode and all functional units are running synchronously. In this mode of operation, the highfrequency clock source is turned off to save power if
the switchback function is not enabled (SWB = 0)
unless the DSPCore is enabled; if the switchback is
enabled (SWB = 1), the high-frequency clock source is
not turned off (see the PMME bit description for more
information). Note that debug mode does not work with
PMM2 mode since switchback does not occur fast
enough to guarantee proper operation.
Power Conservation
The MAXQ3108 incorporates power-management features that support low-power operation with three
power-saving modes. Features include startup timer,
internal FLL oscillator, and switchback function.
The MAXQ3108 was developed for low-power applications and has three different levels of power-saving
modes. The two power-management modes reduce
speed and power consumption by either internally
dividing the clock signal by 256 or using the 32kHz
clock directly. The stop mode stops all internal clocks
(with the exception of the 32kHz crystal amplifier)
resulting in a static condition and providing the lowest
power state.
The power supervisor monitors the VDDlevel when
power is first applied to the device and generates a
power-on reset when the voltage reaches an acceptable level, and following the 65,536 FLL cycle power-up
period.
The power-on reset initializes the processor and allows
program execution at the reset vector location of
8000h. The power-on reset flag, POR, is set to logic 1 to
indicate a power-on reset has occurred; the POR flag
can only be cleared by software.
Power-Management Mode
Power-management mode (PMM) allows application
software to dynamically match operating frequency with
the need for lower operating power when full processing throughput is not required. When power-management mode 1 (PMM1) is used, the system clock is
divided by 256, resulting in a user core clock rate of
19.584kHz. When power-management mode 2 (PMM2)
is used, the system clock is driven directly by the
32,768Hz clock source resulting in a user core clock of
16.384kHz.
PMM reduces operating power by minimizing power
loss due to CMOS switching transients. PMM is invoked
by setting the PMM enable bit (PMME). The PMME bit
defaults to 0 on all forms of reset.
When the system is operated in PMM2 mode, the highfrequency clock is disabled unless the switchback is
active or the DSPCore is enabled. Refer to the PMME
bit description in the
MAXQ Family User’s Guide
for
more information.
Switchback
The switchback feature allows low-power operation
associated with PMM, but maintains quick response to
events that require full processing capacity. The switchback function is enabled by setting the SWB bit to logic
1. When operating in a PMM mode and the SWB bit is
enabled, the system restores the clock settings that
were active when PMM was invoked whenever the system detects a qualified event.
The automatic switchback is only enabled when PMM is
in use. Switchback to the high-frequency clock occurs
whenever any of these conditions occur:
• Detection of a selected edge transition on any of the
external interrupts when the respective pin has interrupts enabled.
• UART activity:
• When the serial port is enabled to receive data and
a transition occurs on the receive input pin (for
mode 1, 2, and 3).
• After a write access to the SBUF register.
• SPI activity:
• SPIB is written in master mode (STBY = 1).
•The SSEL signal is asserted in slave mode.
• Time-of-day alarm or subsecond alarm from the RTC
when enabled.
•I
2
C activity:
• Start interrupt when enabled (I2CSRIE = 1).
• A write to the I2CSTART bit when the I2C controller
is in master mode (I2CMST = 1).
• SVM interrupt if enabled (SVMIE = 1).
• Changing the value of ADCONV from 0 to 1.
• Active debug mode is entered either by breakpoint
match or issuance of the debug command from
background mode.
Since PMM is incompatible with any operation that
requires a precise clock (for example, baud-rate generation), attempts to set the PMME bit while such operations are active will fail.
Note that when switchback is enabled in PMM2 mode,
the high-frequency clock (the FLL) continues to run to
support the switchback operation.
Stop Mode
The stop-mode bit is only implemented for the
MAXQ3108 UserCore (the DSPCore does not support
stop mode). Stop mode disables all circuits within the
processor except the 32,768Hz crystal amplifier and
any circuitry that is directly clocked by the 32,768Hz
oscillator. All other on-chip clocks, timers, and serial
port communication are stopped, and no processing is
possible. Once in stop mode, the device is in a static
state, its power consumption primarily dominated by
leakage current.
Stop mode is invoked by setting the STOP bit to logic 1.
The processor enters the stop mode on the instruction
that sets the STOP bit. Entering the stop mode does not
affect the setting of the clock control bits, allowing the
system to return to its original operating frequency after
stop mode is exited. If reset ends stop mode, the clock
generation logic is returned to its default condition.
The processor can exit stop mode through the following:
• By using any of the external interrupts that are
enabled.
• By external reset through the RST pin.
• By the time-of-day alarm or subsecond alarm from
the RTC.
• By the I2C start interrupt if enabled (I2CSRIE = 1 and
I2CEN = 1).
• By the SVM interrrupt if enabled (SVMIE = 1).
When stop mode is exited, the processor resumes its
normal execution. When the UserCore invokes stop
mode, the DSPCore is disabled in hardware. This
means that on any exit from stop mode, the DSP must
be reconfigured and reenabled if this functionality is
desired. This also means that user code may need to
handle an interrupt source differently depending on
whether it occurs while both CPUs are running or
whether it removes stop mode.
Idle Mode
Idle mode is only implemented for the MAXQ3108
DSPCore (not the UserCore). Idle mode suspends the
processor by holding the instruction pointer (IP) in a
static state. No instructions are fetched and no processing occurs. Setting the IDLE bit to logic 1 invokes
the idle mode. The instruction that executes this step is
the last instruction prior to freezing the program
counter. Once in idle mode, all resources are preserved and clocks remain active to enabled peripherals
so the processor can exit the idle state using any of the
interrupt sources that are enabled. Note that the only
interrupts associated with the DSPCore (i.e., those that
can remove idle mode) are master request (from
UserCore), and ADC output buffer interrupts. The IDLE
bit is cleared automatically once the idle state is exited;
allowing the processor to execute the instruction at the
corresponding interrupt vector address. Upon returning
from the interrupt vector, the processor executes the
instruction that immediately follows the one that set the
IDLE bit. Resetting the processor also removes the idle
mode. Reset places the processor in a reset state and
clears the IDLE bit. The DSPCore reset state could
result from a global system reset or from clearing of the
ENDSP bit by the UserCore.
Reset
The MAXQ3108 has four ways of entering a reset state:
• Power-on reset
• Watchdog timer reset
• External reset
• Internal system reset
Regardless of the reset source, the state of the
MAXQ3108 is the same while in reset. When in reset,
the oscillator/FLL oscillator is running, but no program
execution is allowed. When the reset source is external,
the user must remove the reset stimulus. When power is
applied to the device, the power-on delay removes the
stimulus automatically.
Power-On Reset/Brownout Reset Generation
The MAXQ3108 incorporates an internal voltage reference and comparator in order to monitor VDDand hold
the device in reset if the supply is out of tolerance.
Once VDDhas risen above the threshold, the
MAXQ3108 generates a power-on reset, starts the internal FLL, and counts 65,536 FLL cycles (POR delay)
before program execution begins at location 8000h.
The power monitor invokes the reset state whenever the
supply drops below the POR threshold. This reset condition remains until the supply voltage is above the minimum operating voltage level. When power returns
above the reset threshold, a full power-on reset is performed. Thus, a brownout that causes VDDto drop
below the minimum voltage appears the same as a
power-up.
The MAXQ3108 provides a brownout detect/reset function. Brownout detection is always enabled during
active mode. The power monitor invokes a brownout
reset state to halt program execution when VDDdrops
below the threshold condition. This ensures that the
microcontroller is safely placed into a reset state whenever VDD< V
RST
, thus preventing possible code execution while the supply voltage is too low. When power
returns above the reset threshold, and once the internal
POR delay (65,536 FLL cycles) is satisfied, the device
is initialized just as though power was removed and
reapplied.
The processor exits the reset condition automatically
once VDDmeets the minimum voltage requirement.
Software can determine that a power-on reset has
occurred by checking the power-on reset (POR) flag in
the WDCN register. Software should clear the POR bit
after reading it.
The brownout detect function can be disabled during
stop mode using the brownout disable (BOD) bit in the
PWCN register. The POR default state for the BOD bit is
0, which enables the brownout detect function during
stop mode. If brownout detection is disabled during
stop mode, the circuitry responsible for detecting a
brownout condition is shut down and the VDD< V
RST
condition does not invoke the reset state. Since functionality of the device is not guaranteed when
VDD<V
RST
, it is the responsibility of the user to ensure
that the supply voltage is above the minimum operating
voltage range (V
RST
) defined for the device when exit-
ing stop mode.
Watchdog Timer Reset
The watchdog timer is a free-running programmable
timer. The watchdog supervises the processor operation by requiring software to clear the timer counter
before the timeout expires. If the timer is enabled and
software fails to clear it before this interval expires, the
device is placed into a reset state. The reset state
maintains for nine system clock cycles. Once the reset
is removed, the processor resumes execution at
address 8000h. Software can determine if a reset is
caused by a watchdog timeout by checking the watchdog timer reset flag, WTRF, in the WDCN register. This
flag must be cleared by software.
External Reset
If the RST input is taken to logic 0, the device is forced
into a reset state. An external reset is accomplished by
holding the RST pin low at least four clock cycles while
the oscillator/FLL oscillator is running. Once the reset
state is invoked, it is maintained as long as RST is
pulled to logic 0. When the RST pin is released to return
to a high state, the processor exits the reset state within
12 clock cycles and begins execution at address
8000h.
If a reset state is applied while the processor is in stop
mode, the reset causes the processor to exit the stop
mode and forces the program counter to 8000h.
Reset Input Pin Disable
The external reset (RST) pin function on the MAXQ3108
can be disabled by user application code. The poweron-reset default condition is for the RST pin to be
enabled. Some applications, however, may not use the
reset input function or may use the alternate function
assigned to the pin. The reset function on the external
pin can be disabled by setting the RSTD bit of the
PWCN register to a logic 1. Since the POR default condition for the device results in the RST function being
enabled on the pin, users should be cautioned that
holding the pin low on power-up prevents exiting of the
reset state and the ability to execute the code necessary to disable the RST function. When the reset function is enabled on the RST pin, user code can generate
a reset by writing a 0 to the port pin.
Peripheral Devices
GPIO Ports
The MAXQ3108 contains three GPIO ports: P0, P1, and
P2. Internally, each of these ports is 8 bits wide; however, not all bits of all ports are connected to pins. Port P0
exposes bits 0 to 7, port P1 exposes bits 0 to 6, and
port P2 exposes bits 0 to 5. Writes to unused bits have
no effect. Reads from unused bits could be in an indeterminate state.
For information on using GPIO ports, refer to Section 6
of the
MAXQ Family User’s Guide
.
UARTs
The MAXQ3108 contains two UARTs (universal synchronous/asynchronous receiver/transmitters). Most
often, these are used as standard asynchronous serial
ports for console applications; however, they are quite
flexible and can be used in a variety of ways.
Each port can be configured through the control register (SCONx) and the mode register (SMODx). The baud
rate is established by programming an appropriate
value in the phase register (PRx). Finally, communication is performed by writing and reading the buffer register (SBUFx).
Details on using these ports can be found in Section 10
of the
MAXQ Family User’s Guide
. Note that the multi-
processor support mentioned in this document is
not
supported by the serial ports implemented in the
MAXQ3108.
UART channel 0 on the MAXQ3108 contains a special
feature that eases its use with some infrared communication systems. In these systems, an asynchronous serial signal is used to on-off modulate a high-frequency
carrier signal. This modulated carrier is then used to
further modulate an IR beam. Because of the popularity
of infrared remote controls, the receivers for this sort of
modulated signal are readily available and inexpensive.
Signal Description: To convert an asynchronous signal into a signal suitable for IR transmission, the modulated IR beam is typically turned on during “0” bit times,
and is turned off during “1” bit times. For conventional
serial data, this means that the IR beam is on only when
data is actually being transmitted, and is off at all other
times. See Figure 2.
Because drivers for the IR LED used as a transmitter
vary, there are two additional bits in the SMOD0 register to configure the output signal. The first is the EPWM
bit. When set, the output of the lower half of timer 2 is
mixed with the transmitted serial data signal. The resulting waveform has the output frequency from the timer
when the data signal is low, and has either a low or
high level when the data signal is high.
The state of the output when the serial data signal is
high is set by the OFS bit in the SMOD0 register. When
the OFS bit is 0, the TxD pin is low when the serial data
signal is high; when the OFS bit is 1, the TxD pin is high
when the serial data signal is high.
The carrier frequency is generated by the low half of
timer 2 configured as two 8-bit timers. See the
Timer 2
and
Timer B
sections for more information about config-
uring this timer.
SPI
The MAXQ3108 contains an SPI peripheral that can be
configured as either a master or a slave. For information
on the SPI peripheral, refer to Section 11 of the
MAXQ
Family User’s Guide
. Note that the SPI peripheral is not
available when the ADC channels are used, since they
share pins.
I2C Interface
The MAXQ3108 contains an I2C peripheral. The I2C
bus is an 8-bit, bidirectional, 2-wire serial bus interface
with the following characteristics:
• Compliant with Philips Semiconductor I2C bus speci-
fication version 2.1 (2000).
• Information is transferred through a serial data bus
(SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL).
• Operates in either master or slave mode as transmit-
ter or receiver.
• Supports a multimaster environment.
• Supports 7-bit and 10-bit addressing modes.
• Data transfer rate of up to 100kbps in standard mode
and up to 400kbps in fast mode.
• On-chip filtering rejects spikes on the bus data line to
preserve data integrity.
• Supports maximum bus capacitance of 400pF.
A transfer sequence, in its simplest form, is composed
of a START bit (S), the slave address, a R/W bit, and an
address-acknowledge bit (A) followed by data, a dataacknowledge bit (A), and a STOP bit (P). One party, the
master, initiates the sequence and governs the timing.
The other party, the slave, recognizes its address and
responds by accepting data or delivering data. A data
transfer sequence can be grouped into the following
stages:
• START: The master generates the START condition
(S) by pulling SDA low (high-to-low transition) while
holding SCL high.
• Address: The master transmits the address of the
slave device, together with the direction of data
transfer (R/W).
• Address Acknowledge: The slave with the matching
address responds to the master by holding SDA low
during the 9th clock SCL high (A).
• Data: The transmitter sends data to the receiver. The
number of bytes of data is unlimited. However, each
data byte must be followed by a data-acknowledge
bit (A).
• Data Acknowledge: The receiver acknowledges to
the transmitter by sending the acknowledge bit (A). If
the master is the receiver and the data just received
is the last byte expected, the master leaves SDA
high to signal to the slave transmitter that the last
byte of expected data is transmitted. The slave transmitter then releases SDA after the 9th clock so that
the master can generate a STOP or START condition.
• STOP: The master concludes the transfer by send-
ing the STOP condition (P) by causing a low-to-high
transition on SDA while SCL is high. The I2C bus is
now idle.
The MAXQ3108 I2C peripheral uses seven registers to
manage I2C bus communication:
• I2CBUF: The buffer register through which all out-
bound data is written, and through which all inbound
data is received.
• I2CCK: The I2C clock register defines the high and
low periods for the SCL signal.
• I2CCN: The control register manages the I2C peripheral during configuration and operation.
• I2CST: The status register contains bits that reflect
the condition of the I2C peripheral. It is consulted frequently during I2C operation.
• I2CIE: The interrupt enable register is used to manage interrupt sources within the I2C peripheral.
• I2CTO: The timeout register defines how long a slave
can extend the I2C clock before the peripheral
declares a timeout.
• I2CSLA: Establishes the slave address for the I2C
peripheral.
I
2
C Use Scenario: MAXQ3108 Master Sends 2 Bytes
to Slave
1) Set the I2CEN and I2CMST bits in the I2CCN register. This enables the I
2
C peripheral and establishes
the MAXQ3108 as master.
2) Set the I2CSTART bit in the I2CCN register. This
causes the MAXQ3108 to send the START
sequence. When the START condition has been
sent (and both SDA and SCL are low), the
I2CSTART bit is cleared. Note that the I2CSRI bit is
set in the I2CST register as well. That is because
the I2C peripheral sees its own START condition.
3) Load the command byte into I2CBUF. The command byte consists of the slave address and the
R/W bit. For this example, assume we wish to write
to slave address 0x30. The byte to be loaded in this
case is 0x60: the address shifted up by one position and bit 0 (the R/W bit) set to 0.
4) Monitor the I2CTXI flag in the I2CST register. When
set, the I2C peripheral has finished sending the
command byte and has received an ACK or a NAK
from the remote device. Check the I2CNACKI flag in
the I2CST register to determine if an ACK or a NAK
was received. If set, the command was not acknowledged. Clear these bits after they are tested.
5) Load the first data byte into I2CBUF.
6) Monitor the I2CTXI flag in the I2CST register. When
set, the I
2
C peripheral has finished sending the
data byte. Check the I2CNACKI flag to ensure that
the slave has received the byte. Clear both these
bits.
7) Load the second data byte into I2CBUF.
8) Monitor the I2CTXI flag in the I2CST register. When
set, the I
2
C peripheral has finished sending the
data byte. Check the I2CNACKI flag to ensure that
the slave has received the byte. Clear both these
bits.
9) Set the I2CSTOP bit in the I2CCN register. This
causes the MAXQ3108 to send the STOP
sequence. When this bit returns to 0, the STOP
sequence has been sent and the I2C bus is idle.
I2C Use Scenario: MAXQ3108 Master Receives 2
Bytes from Slave
1) Set the I2CEN and I2CMST bits in the I2CCN register. This enables the I2C peripheral and establishes
the MAXQ3108 as master.
2) Set the I2CSTART bit in the I2CCN register. This
causes the MAXQ3108 to send the START
sequence. When the START condition has been
sent (and both SDA and SCL are low), the
I2CSTART bit is cleared. Note that the I2CSRI bit is
set in the I2CST register as well. That is because
the I2C peripheral sees its own START condition.
3) Load the command byte into I2CBUF. The command byte consists of the slave address and the
R/W bit. For this example, assume we wish to write
to slave address 0x30. The byte to be loaded in this
case is 0x60: the address shifted up by one position and bit 0 (the R/W bit) set to a one.
4) Monitor the I2CTXI flag in the I2CST register. When
set, the I2C peripheral has finished sending the
command byte and has received an ACK or a NAK
from the remote device. Check the I2CNACKI flag
in the I2CST register to determine if an ACK or a
NAK was received. If set, the command was not
acknowledged. Clear these bits after they are tested.
5) Set the I2CACK bit to 0 to acknowledge the first
byte.
6) Monitor the I2CRXI flag in the I2CST register. When
set, the I2C peripheral has finished receiving the
data byte and has sent the ACK. Read the data
from the I2CBUF register and clear the I2CRXI bit.
7) Clear the I2CACK bit to NAK the next received byte.
8) Monitor the I2CRXI flag in the I2CST register. When
set, the I2C peripheral has finished receiving the
data byte and has sent the NAK. Read the data
from the I2CBUF register and clear the I2CRXI bit.
9) Set the I2CSTOP bit in the I2CCN register. This
causes the MAXQ3108 to send the STOP
sequence. When this bit returns to 0, the STOP
sequence has been sent and the I2C bus is idle.
I2C Use Scenario: MAXQ3108 Slave Receives 2
Bytes from External Master
1) Set the I2CEN bit in the I2CCN register. This
enables the I2C peripheral.
2) Set the slave address in the I2CSLA register.
3) Monitor I2CST. As conditions change on the I2C
bus, they are reflected in the I2CST register. When
the I2CAMI bit is set, the address of the MAXQ3108
has been matched. The MAXQ3108 automatically
sends ACK when an address matches.
4) Set the I2CACK bit to 0 to ACK the received bytes.
5) Monitor the I2CRXI and the I2CSPI flags in the
I2CST register. When the I2CRXI bit is set, the I2C
peripheral has finished receiving the data byte and
has sent the ACK. Read the data from the I2CBUF
register and clear the I2CRXI bit.
6) When the I2CSPI flag is set, the I2C peripheral has
detected a STOP condition. No more characters are
to be expected.
ADC Inputs
The MAXQ3108 contains six cubic sinc filters that
receive decoded bit streams from three Manchester
decoders. The ADC hardware is unique in that most of
the functions can be performed by either the UserCore
or the DSPCore. This section describes how these ADC
inputs are configured. See Figure 3.
The input to the Manchester decoder is a composite
signal consisting of two delta-sigma modulator channels and a synchronization signal. The decoder
extracts the clock and data and presents the signals to
a sync detector. This block searches for the synchronization pattern and keeps a shift register in step with
the synchronized signal. When the sync detector is
asserting a lock indication, the recovered channel 0
and 1 outputs reflect two analog inputs at the ADC
modulator.
These recovered bit streams are presented to cubic
sinc filters for conversion to digital format. The filters
themselves have 24-bit resolution; however, the number
of bits that are actually significant depends directly on
the oversampling rate used in the filter control logic.
• AD0 to AD5: These six registers contain the most
significant 16 bits for the cubic sinc filters. AD0 and
AD1 correspond to Manchester decoder 0, AD2 and
AD3 correspond to Manchester decoder 1, and AD4
and AD5 correspond to Manchester decoder 2.
• AD0LSB to AD5LSB: These six registers contain the
least significant 8 bits for the cubic sinc filters. Paired
with the AD0 to AD5 registers, each cubic sinc filter
has 24 bits of resolution.
• ADCN: The ADC control register contains both con-
trol bits and status bits associated with the ADC. The
register contains bits that configure the oversampling
rate, and enable or disable individual Manchester
decoder channels and interrupts and other functions.
• ADCC: This register contains a measure of the clock
rate associated with a particular Manchester
decoder. Because the speed of a Manchester channel is controlled not by the MAXQ3108 but by the
unsynchronized clock of an external device, it is critical for the application to know the difference
between the modulator clock and the MAXQ3108
clock. To determine this, the ADCC register contains
the number of sync bits that occur during 512
32.768kHz clock periods. Application software can
use this information to determine the relative speed
of the two clocks and to make correction for time-critical measurements.
• MSTC: The Manchester decoder status register contains bits that reveal the synchronization status of all
three Manchester decoders. It also contains the
selection bits for the clock measurement function
exposed in the ADCC register.
Use Case: Using a Single DS8102 as a 2-Channel ADC
The DS8102 is designed to operate with the
Manchester data inputs of the MAXQ3108. Figure 4
demonstrates how simple the physical interface can be:
just connect the MNOUT pin of the DS8102 to the
MDIN0P input of the MAXQ3108, and establish a common ground using the MDIN0N pin. This interface point,
however, makes an ideal isolation interface. Because of
the Manchester-encoded nature of the signal interface,
any type of isolation—capacitive, transformer, or optical—can be used to couple the output of the DS8102 to
the MAXQ3108.
To use the ADC inputs, perform the following steps:
• Configure the ADC. In the ADCN register, set the
OSR bits to select the desired oversampling rate,
either 32, 64, 128, or 256. Enable the Manchester
decoder 0 by setting MD0E.
• Within a few milliseconds, the MD0SNC bit should go
active in the MSTC register. This indicates that the
synchronization pattern has been detected and that
samples in the AD0 register are valid.
• To read samples, wait for ABF0 to go active in the
ADCN register. This indicates that samples are available in the AD0 and AD1 registers. The sample input
loop can be as simple as:
while(TRUE)
{
while(!ADCN.ABF0);
process_sample(AD0);
}
Dual-Core Interfaces
The MAXQ3108 contains two MAXQ20 cores. The first
core, UserCore, operates at half the master clock
speed and manages most of the peripheral devices.
The second core, DSPCore, operates at the full master
clock speed and has no peripheral responsibility. It is
free to handle most of the math-intensive parts of the
application.
The DSPCore differs from the UserCore in two important aspects: first, it has no debug engine; and second,
it has no nonvolatile program memory. Instead, the

Figure 4. Connecting the MAXQ3108 to a DS8102 Dual Delta-Sigma Modulator
DSPCore uses 8KB (4K instruction words) of RAM as
code memory, with a separate 1KB (512 word) data
space.
DSP Code Memory
Code memory for the DSPCore is implemented as an
8KB block of static RAM. Following power-on reset, the
DSPCore CPU is disabled (that is, ENDSP is clear).
Since the DSPCore is not fetching instructions, its code
memory can be remapped to the UserCore data space.
The DSPCore code RAM is mapped into UserCore data
space at 0x1000–0x2FFF in byte mode (or
0x1000–0x1FFF in word mode).
Code for the DSPCore must be compiled along with the
code for the UserCore as an independent, self-contained module. That is, the DSPCore code cannot contain calls to modules in the UserCore and cannot
depend on any C runtime code that is executed only in
the UserCore. For this reason, it is likely that development for the DSPCore is done in assembly language
rather than C. Code for the DSPCore must be compiled
to run at location 0x8000 and must be located in a segment with a known absolute address.
To configure DSP code memory at runtime using the
utility ROM copy routines:
• Establish a word array at location 0x1000.
• Establish a word pointer (DP[0]) at the start of the
DSPCore code block in flash.
• Add 0x8000 to DP[0].
• Call the utility ROM function UROM_moveDPinc.
• Copy the result to the word array and increment the
array pointer.
• Repeat until complete.
Once the copy is complete, setting the ENDSP bit relocates the RAM block from 0x1000 in UserCore data
space to 0x8000 in DSPCore code space and releases
DSPCore reset. When DSPCore reset is released, the
DSPCore begins executing instructions from the RAM
block at 0x8000.
Intercore Communications
A set of five registers is used to communicate between
the UserCore and the DSPCore. Three registers,
MREQ0, MREQ1 and MREQ2, are dedicated to communicating requests from the UserCore to the
DSPCore; two registers, SRSP0 and SRSP1, manage
responses from the DSPCore to the UserCore.
The UserCore starts all communication between the two
cores. Typically, the UserCore and the DSPCore agree
on a set of 4-bit request codes that the DSPCore recog-
nizes and to which it responds. For example, request
code 1 might be a software reset; request code 2 might
be a read RAM request; request code 3 might be a
write RAM request.
A set of hardware locks keep the two cores in synchronization for purposes of communication. The REQCDV
(request command data valid) bit in the MREQ0 is set
by the UserCore to alert the DSPCore that a request is
pending. When the DSPCore has read the request, it
can clear the REQCDV bit. Only the DSPCore can clear
the bit; thus, coherency is guaranteed. Similarly, when
the DSPCore has a response available it sets the
RSPSDV (response status data valid). When the
UserCore has received the response data, it clears the
RSPSDV bit. Since only the DSPCore can set this bit
and only the UserCore can clear it, once again,
coherency is guaranteed.
A typical use-case scenario would proceed as follows.
Case 1: Load the 16-bit value 0x55AA to RAM location 0x0020 in the DSPCore. It has been established
that the command for RAM write is 0x03.
1) The UserCore loads the 16-bit address 0x0020 into
MREQ1 and the 16-bit data word 0x55AA into
MREQ2.
2) The UserCore loads 0x23 into the MREQ0 register.
This simultaneously loads the command 0x03 into
the request command and sets the REQCDV bit to
alert the DSPCore that a command is pending.
3) The DSPCore receives the alert that a command is
pending and retrieves the command from the
MREQ0 register. It decodes the request as a RAM
write request (0x03.) In response, it reads MREQ1
for the address and MREQ2 for the data to write.
4) The DSPCore completes the RAM write operation.
5) The DSPCore then clears the REQCDV bit in the
MREQ0 register to signal the successful execution
of the command.
Case 2: Read the 16-bit value at DSPCore RAM location 0x0030. It has been established that the command for RAM read is 0x02.
1) The UserCore loads the 16-bit address 0x0030 into
MREQ1.
2) The UserCore loads 0x22 into the MREQ0 register.
This action simultaneously loads the command
0x02 into the request command and sets the
REQCDV bit to alert the DSPCore that a command
is pending.
3) The DSPCore receives the alert that a command is
pending and retrieves the command from the
MREQ0 register. It decodes the request as a RAM
read request (0x02.) In response, it reads MREQ1
for the address to read.
4) The DSPCore completes the RAM read operation.
5) The DSPCore loads the results of the read to the
SRSP1 register.
6) The DSPCore loads 0x22 into the SRSP0 register.
This action simultaneously loads the response 0x02
into the response bits and sets the RSPSDV bit to
alert the UserCore that a response is pending.
7) The UserCore receives the response alert and
retrieves the response from the SRSP1 register. It
then clears the RSPSDV bit in the SRSP0 register.
8) The DSPCore sees that the RSPSDV bit is cleared. It
then clears the REQCDV bit in the MREQ0 register.
9) The UserCore sees the REQCDV bit go clear and is
now ready for the next request.
Timer 2
Timer 2 is a complex timing element designed for PWM
generation, IR generation and detection, and a variety
of other purposes. For information about this timer and
its properties, refer to Section 9 of the
MAXQ Family
User’s Guide
.
Timer B
The timer B peripheral is an enhanced timer type 1
(refer to the
MAXQ Family User’s Guide
for information
about type 0, type 1, and type 2 timers). It has many of
the features of the more complex type 2 timer, but with
an interface optimized for the 16-bit MAXQ architecture.
Timer B is managed through four 16-bit registers:
TB0CN is the configuration and status register; TB0V is
the current value of the timer; TB0R is the capture/reload
register; and TB0C is the compare register.
The bits of the configuration and status register are as
follows:
Bit 0: CP/RLB. If cleared to 0, TB0R functions as a
reload register. This means that TB0V is reloaded with
the appropriate value when overflow/underflow occurs.
(If counting up, TB0V is loaded with 0 when TB0V =
TB0R; if counting down, TB0V is loaded with TB0R
when TB0V = 0x0000.) If set, the TB0R captures the
value of TB0V when a falling edge is detected on TBB.
Bit 1: ETB. Enables all interrupts from timer B.
Bit 2: TRB. When set, timer B is allowed to run. When
cleared, the time is halted with its current state intact.
Bit 3: EXENB. Setting this bit enables capture/reload
functions on the TBB external pin. In capture mode, a
negative transition on this pin copies the current value
of the TB0V register into the TB0R register. In reload
mode, a negative transition on this pin resets TB0V to 0
(in upcount mode) or to TB0R (in downcount mode).
Bit 4: DCEN. When clear, the counter or timer counts
up. When set, the counter or timer counts either up or
down depending on the state of the TBB pin. In PWM
modes, the TBB pin is an output; in this case, when
DCEN is active the counter counts up to TB0R, then
counts down to 0 and repeats.
Bit 5: TBOE. When set, and when the timer is operating
in timer mode, this bit enables the output of the timer
onto the TB0A pin. When clear, the TB0A pin can be
used for an alternate function, or as an input to the
timer.
Bit 6: EXFB. This flag is used to trigger an interrupt on
any of the following conditions:
• The timer is configured as a timer in capture mode,
and a negative edge on the TBB pin is observed with
the TBB pin enabled.
• The timer is configured in reload mode and counts
up, and a negative edge on the TBB pin is observed
with the TBB pin enabled.
• The timer is configured to any PWM operating mode
and a negative edge on the TBB pin is observed with
the TBB pin enabled.
Additionally, if reload mode is in effect with no PWM
operating mode, the EXFB bit toggles on overflow/
underflow without generating an interrupt.
Bit 7: TFB. This flag is set on any overflow/underflow
event. It must be cleared by software.
Bits 10 to 8: TBPS. These three bits define the
prescaler divisor:
Bit 11: TBCR. Setting this bit enables PWM mode. If
this bit is set (and TBCS is clear), the TBB pin is driven
to 0 when TB0V = TB0C and driven to 1 when TB0V =
TB0R. Setting both TVCS and TBCR causes TBB to toggle when TB0V = TB0C.
Bit 12: TBCS. Setting this bit enables PWM mode. If
this bit is set (and TBCR is clear), the TBB pin is driven
to 1 when TB0V = TB0C and driven to 0 when TB0V =
TB0R. Setting both TVCS and TBCR causes TBB to toggle when TB0V = TB0C.
Bit 15: C/TB. When clear, the timer is configured as a
timer (that is, it counts clock pulses from the prescaled
system clock.) When set, the timer is configured as a
counter; that is, it counts transitions on the TBA pin.
Timer B Use-Case Scenarios
Case 1: Output 1kHz square wave on TB0A.
In this instance, reload the timer at a 500µs interval
(since a 1kHz square wave has an edge every 500µs.
Since the default UserCore clock is 5.014MHz, the total
divisor should be 5014kHz/2kHz = 2507. Thus, a
prescaler value of 1 and a TB0R value of 2507
(0x09CB) provides the necessary timing.
The procedure is as follows:
• Load TB0R with 0x09CB.
• Load TB0CN with 0x0024. This (1) sets the timer to
timer mode, (2) disables PWM mode, (3) sets a
prescaler divisor of 1, (4) disables the TXFB trigger,
(5) enables square-wave output, (6) sets reload
mode, and (7) disables any interrupts in the timer.
Case 2: Configure a PWM output with one part in
1000 resolution. Frequency is not critical.
In this instance, configure TB0R with a value of 1000.
Configure TB0CN with 0x0804. This (1) sets the timer to
timer mode, (2) enables PWM mode, (3) sets a
prescaler divisor of 1, (4) disables the TXFB trigger, (5)
disables square-wave output, (6) sets reload mode,
and (7) disables interrupts.
Writing a value to TB0C sets the duty cycle of the output
on TBB. When the TB0C value is 100, for example, the
timer counts from 0 to 99 with the output high. When the
timer reaches 100, the TB0C value is a match and the
output goes low. The timer continues to run until it reaches 1000, at which time it switches low and reloads to 0.
Multiply-Accumulate Unit
The MAXQ3108 contains one multiply-accumulate unit
for each CPU core. Each of these units can multiply two
16-bit numbers (signed or unsigned) in a single CPU
cycle, and then accumulate the result to a 48-bit accumulator in a second cycle. Details on the multiply-accumulate units are available in Section 12 of the
MAXQ
Family User’s Guide
.
Real-Time Clock
The real-time clock is a 32-bit time-of-day clock that
supports interrupt generation based on time intervals
and time-of-day alarms. It is driven from the 32,768Hz
crystal oscillator and operates even when the UserCore
is in stop mode.
For information on the real-time clock module, refer to
Section 14 of the
MAXQ Family User’s Guide
.
Programmable Pulse Generators
The DSPCore has access to two precision, programmable pulse generators. Pulse generation is critical in
electricity meters and other utility-based applications.
The principle of the pulse generator is simple: an output
port is conditioned on a 22-bit counter so that when the
counter is 0, the output port operates normally (that is,
when a bit value is written to the port, the state of the
pin changes); but when the counter is running, the pin
is held at its previous state regardless of what value is
written to it. The moment the counter reaches 0, however, the new value is transferred to the pin.
To use the pulse generator, write a 1 to the port and
write a value to the counter. The counter begins counting down. While the counter is running, write a 0 to the
port. Because the counter is running, the 0 is not immediately reflected on the pin. Only when the counter
reaches 0 does the “0” level transfer to the pin. The
practical value of this is the amount of time that the pin
has been high is exactly a function of the value written
to the counter.
In the MAXQ3108, the counter is 22 bits wide, but only
the high-order 16 bits are writable. The other 6 bits are
cleared on any write. Thus, the maximum value that can
be written to the register is 0x3FFFC0, or, at the default
clock rate of the DSPCore (10.027MHz) about 418ms.
From user code, flash is programmed using the ROM
utility functions from either C or assembly language.
The flash can be programmed one word at a time if so
desired. Once a new user code routine has been programmed and verified in flash, the link or call address
to that routine can be enabled. This procedure allows
continued user code execution while dynamic reconfiguration of user billing code and tariff schedules occurs.
The initial application code loaded through JTAG dictates the in-application facility and implements recognition of the in-application request and communication.
The following function declarations show examples of
some of the ROM utility functions provided for in-application flash programming.
/* Write one 16-bit word to code address 'dest'.
* Dest must be aligned to 16 bits.
* Returns 0 = failure, 1 = OK.
*/
int flash_write (uint16_t dest, uint16_t data);
To erase, the following function would be used:
/* Erase the given Flash page
* addr: Flash offset (anywhere within page)
*/
int flash_erasepage(uint16_t addr);
