column (wpu) is associated with the interrupt column (int), then the I/O configuration is p ull-up interrupt
input, else the configuration is floating interrupt input.

2. OSC1 and OSC2 pins connect a crystal or ceramic resonator, an external RC, or an external source to
the on-chip oscillator see dedicated See “PIN DESCRIPTION” on page 5. for more details.

2 FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY

ST72C171

2.1 INTRODUCTION

FLASH devices have a single voltage non-volatil e
FLASH memory that may be programmed in-situ
(or plugged in a programming t ool) on a byte-by­byte basis.

2.2 MAIN FEATURES

■ Remote In-Situ Programming (ISP) mode

■ Up to 16 bytes programmed in the same cycle

■ MTP memory (Multiple Time Programmable)

■ Read-out memory protection against piracy

2.3 STRUCTURAL ORGANISATION

The FLASH program memory is organised in a
single 8-bit wide memory block which can be used
for storing both code and data constants.

The FLASH program memory is mapped in the up­per part of the ST7 addressing space and includes
the reset and interrupt user vector area .

2.4 IN-SITU PROGRAMMING (ISP) MODE

The FLASH program memory can be programmed
using Remote ISP mode. This ISP mode allows
the contents of the ST7 program memory to be up­dated using a standard ST7 programming tools af­ter the device is mounted on the application board.
This feature can be implem ented with a m inimum
number of added componen ts and bo ard area im­pact.

An example Remote ISP hardware interface to t he
standard ST7 programmi ng tool is described be­low. For more details on ISP programming, refer to
the ST7 Programming Specification.

Remote ISP Overview

The Remote ISP mode is initiated by a specific se­quence on the dedicated ISPSEL pin.

The Remote ISP is performed in three steps:

– Selection of the RAM execution mode
– D ownl oad of Remote ISP code in RAM
– Execution of Remote ISP code in RAM to pro-

gram the user program into the FLASH

Remote ISP hardware configuration

In Remote ISP mode, the ST7 has to be supplied
with power (V

and VSS) and a clock signal (os-

DD

cillator and application crystal circuit for example).

This mode needs five signals (plus the V

DD

signal
if necessary) to be connected to the program m ing
tool. This signals are:

– RESET
–V

: device reset

: device ground power supply

SS

– I S PCLK: ISP output serial clock pin
– ISPDATA: ISP input serial data pin
– ISPSEL: Remote ISP mode selection. This pin

must be connected to V
board through a pull-down resistor.

on the application

SS

If any of these pins are used for other purposes on
the application, a serial resist or has to be imple­mented to avoid a conflict if the other device forces
the signal level.

Figure 1 shows a typical hardware interface to a

standard ST7 programming t ool. For more det ails
on the pin locations, refer t o t he d ev ice pin out de­scription.

2.5 MEMORY READ-OUT PROTECTION

The read-out protection is enabled throug h an op­tion bit.

For FLASH devices, when this option is selected,
the program and data stored in the FLASH memo­ry are protected against read-out piracy (including
a re-write protection). When this protection opt ion
is removed the entire FLASH program memory is
first automatically erased. However, the E

data memory (when available) can be protected
only with ROM devices.

3 CENTRAL PROCE SSI NG UNIT

3.1 INTRODUCTION

This CPU has a full 8-bit architecture and contains
six internal registers allowing efficient 8-bit data
manipulation.

3.2 MAIN FEATURES

■ 63 basic instructions

■ Fast 8-bit by 8-bit multiply

■ 17 main addressing modes

■ Two 8-bit index registers

■ 16-bit stack pointer

■ Low po wer mo des

■ Maskable hardware interrupts

■ Non-maskable software interrupt

3.3 CPU REGISTERS

The 6 CPU registers shown in Figure 1 are not
present in the memory mapping and are accessed
by specific instructions.

Accumulator (A)

The Accumulator is an 8-bit general purpose reg­ister used to hold operan ds and the results of the
arithmetic and logic calculations and to manipulate
data.

Index Registers (X and Y)

In indexed addressing modes, these 8-bit registers
are used to create either effective addresses or
temporary storage areas for data manipulation.
(The Cross-Assembler generates a precede in­struction (PRE) to indicate that the following in­struction refers to the Y register.)

The Y register is not affected by the interrupt auto­matic procedures (not pushed to and popped from
the stack).

Program Cou nt er (P C )

The program counter is a 16-bit register containing
the address of the next instruction to be executed
by the CPU. It is made of two 8-bit registers PCL
(Program Counter Low which is the LSB) and PCH
(Program Counter High which is the MSB).

Bit 3 = I

Interrupt mask

This bit is set by hardware when entering in inter­rupt or by software to disable all interrup ts except
the TRAP software interrupt. This bit is cleared by
software.
0: Interrupts are enabled.
1: Interrupts are disabled.

This bit is controlled by the RIM, SIM and IRET in­structions and is tested by the JRM and JRNM in­structions.

Note: Interrupts requested while I is set are
latched and can be processed whe n I is cleared.

.

Bit 0 = C

Carry/borrow.

This bit is set and cleared b y hardware and soft­ware. It indicates an overflow or an underflow has
occurred during the last arithmetic operation.
0: No overflow or underflow has occurred.
1: An overflow or underflow has occurred.

This bit is driven by the SCF and RCF instructions
and tested by the JRC and JRNC instructions. It is
also affected by the “bit test and branch”, shift and
rotate instructions.

The Stack Pointer is a 16-bit register which is al­ways pointing to the next free location in the stack.
It is then decremented after data has been pushed
onto the stack and incremented before data is
popped from the stack (see Figure 7).

Since the stack is 128 bytes deep, the 10 most sig­nificant bits are forced by hardw are. Following a n
MCU Reset, or after a Reset Stack Pointe r instruc­tion (RSP), the Stack Pointer contains its reset val­ue (the SP5 to SP0 bits are set) which is the stack
higher address.

The least significant byte of the Stack Pointer
(called S) can be directly accessed by a LD in­struction.

Note: When the lower limit is exceeded, the Stack
Pointer wraps around to the stack upper limit, wi th­out indicating the s tack overflow. The previously
stored information is then o verwritten and there­fore lost. The stack also wraps in case of an under­flow.

The stack is used to save the retu rn address dur­ing a subroutine call and the CPU context during
an interrupt. The user may also directly manipulate
the stack by means of the PUSH and POP instruc­tions. In the case of an interrupt, the PCL is stored
at the first location point ed to by the SP. Then the
other registers are stored in the next locations as
shown in Figure 7.

– When an interrupt is received, the SP is decre-

mented and the context is pushed on the stack.

– On return from interrupt, the SP is incremented

and the context is popped from the stack.

A subroutine call occupies two locations and an in­terrupt five locat ions i n the sta ck ar ea.

4.2 LOW VOLTAGE DETECTOR (LVD)

To allow the integration of power management
features in the application, the Low Voltage Detec­tor function (LVD) generates a static reset when
the V

well as the power-down keeping the ST7 in reset.

In these conditions, secure operation is always en­sured for the application without the need for ex­ternal reset hardware.

During a Low Voltage Detector Reset, the RESET
pin is held low, thus p ermitting the MCU to reset
other devices.

Notes:

1. The LVD allows the device to be used without
any external RESET circuitry.

2. Three different reference levels are selectable
through the option byte according to th e applica­tion requirement.

LVD application note

Application software can detect a reset caus ed by
the LVD by reading the LVDRF bit in the CRSR
register.

This bit is set by hardware when a LVD reset is
generated and cleared by software (writing zero).

4.2.2 Asynchronous External RES ET

The RESET
output with integrated R

pin is both an input and an open-drain

weak pull-up resistor.

ON

pin

This pull-up has no fixe d value but varies in ac­cordance with the input voltage. It

can be pulled
low by external circuitry to reset the device. See
electrical characteristics section for more details.

A RESET signal originating from an external
source must have a duration of at least t

h(RSTL)in

in
order to be recognized. This detection is asynchro­nous and therefore the MCU can enter reset state
even in HALT mode.

The RESET

pin is an asynchronous signal which
plays a major role in EMS performance. In a noisy
environment, it is recommended to follow the
guidelines mentioned in the electr ical characteris­tics section.

Two RESET sequences can be associated with
this RESET source: short or long external reset
pulse (see Figure 12).

Starting from the external RESET pulse recogni­tion, the device RESET
is pulled low during at least t

4.2.4.1 Multi-Oscillator (MO)

The Mu lti-Oscillato r (MO) blo ck is the m ain clock
supplier of the ST7. To insure an optimum integra­tion in the application, it is based on an external
clock source and six different selectable oscilla­tors.

The main clock of t he ST 7 ca n be generated by 8
different sources comming from the MO block:

■ an External source

■ 4 Crystal or Ceramic resonator oscillators

■ 1 Extern al RC os cill ators

■ 1 Internal H igh Fre quency RC os c illator

Each oscillator is optimized for a given frequenc y
range in term of consumption and is selectable
through the Option Byte.

External Clock Source

The default Option Byte value selects the External
Clock in the MO block. In this mode, a clock signal
(square, sinus or triangle) with ~50% duty cycle

has to drive the OSCin pin while the OSCout pin is
tied to ground (see Figure 13).

Figure 13. MO Ex te rn a l Cl ock

ST7

OSCin O SCout

EXTERNAL

SOURCE

Crystal/Ceramic Oscillators

This family of oscillators allows a high accuracy on
the main clock of the ST7. The selection within the
list of 4 oscillators has to b e done by Option Byte
according to the res onator frequency in order to
reduce the consum ption. In this mode of the MO
block, the resonator and the load capacitors have
to be connected as shown in Figure 14 a nd have
to be mounted as close as possible to the oscilla­tor pins in order to minimize output distortion and
start-up stabilization time.

These oscillators, when selected via the Option
Byte, are not stopped during the RESET phas e to
avoid losing time in the oscillator starting phase.

The frequency of the external RC oscillator is fixed
by the resistor and the capacitor values:

The Internal RC oscil lator mode is based on the
same principle as the External RC one including
the an on-chip resistor and capacitor. This mode is
the most cost effective one with the drawback of a
lower frequency accuracy. Its frequency is in the
range of several MHz.

In this mode, the two oscillator pins have to be tied
to ground as shown in Figure 16.

The selection of the internal RC oscillator has to

4.3 CLOCK SECURITY SYSTEM (CSS)

ST72C171

The Clock Security System (CSS) protects the
ST7 against main clock problems. To allow the in­tegration of the security features in the applica­tions, it is based on a clock filter control and an In­ternal safe oscillator. The CSS can be enabled or
disabled by option byte.

4.3.1 Clock Filter Control

The clock filter is based on a clock frequency limi­tation function.

This filter function is able to detect and filter high
frequency spikes on the ST7 main clock.

If the oscillator is not working p roperly (e.g. work­ing at a harmonic fr equency of the resonator), the
current active oscillator clock can be totally fil­tered, and then no clock signal is available for the
ST7 from this oscillator anymore. If the original
clock source recovers, the f iltering is s topped au­tomatically and the oscillator supplies the ST7
clock.

4.3.2 Safe Oscillator Control

The safe oscillator of the CSS block is a low fre­quency back-up clock source (see Figur e 17).

If the clock signal disappears (due to a broken or
disconnected resonator...) during a safe o scillator
period, the safe oscillator delivers a low frequency
clock signal which allows the ST7 to perform some
rescue operations.

Automatically, the ST7 clock source switches back
from the saf e osc illa tor if the o rig inal clo ck s ourc e
reco ve rs .

Limitat io n det ect i on

The automatic safe oscillator selection is notif ied
by hardware setting the CSSD bit of the CRSR
register. An interrupt can be generat ed if the CS­SIE bit has been previously set.

The CRSR register is frozen. The CSS (in­cluding the safe oscillator) is disabled until
HALT mode is exited. The previous CSS
configuration resumes when the MCU is

woken up by an interrupt with “exit from
HALT mode” capability or from the counter
reset value when the MCU is woken up by a
RESET.

4.3.4 Interrupts

The CSS interrupt event generates an interrupt if
the corresponding Enable Control Bit (CSSIE) is

4.3.5 Main Clock Controller (MCC)

The MCC block supplies the clock for the ST7
CPU and its internal peripherals. It allows the pow­er saving modes such as SLOW mode to be man­aged by the application.

All functions are managed by the Miscellaneous
Register 1 (MISCR1).

The MCC block consists of:

– a program mab le CPU clock prescaler
– a clock-out signal to supply external devices

Figure 18. Main Clock Controller (MCC) Block Diagram

The prescaler allows the selection of the main
clock frequency and is controlled with three bits of
the MISCR1: CP1, CP0 and SMS.

The clock-out capability is an Alternate Function of
an I/O port pin, providing the f
put for driving external devices. It is controlled by
the MCO bit in the MISCR1 register.

5 INTE RRUPTS

The ST7 core may be interrupted by one of two dif­ferent methods: maskable hardware interrupts as
listed in the Interrupt Mapping Table and a non­maskable software interrupt (TRAP). The Interrupt
processing flowchart is shown in F igure 19.
The maskable interrupts must be enabled clearing
the I bit in order to be serviced. However, disabled
interrupts may be latched and processed when
they are enabled (see external interrupts subsec ­tion) .

When an interrupt has to be serviced:

– No rmal processing is susp ended at the end of

the current instruction execution.

– The PC, X, A and CC registers are saved onto

the stack.

– The I bit of the CC register is set to prevent addi-

tional interrupts.

– The PC is then loaded with the interrupt vector of

the interrupt to service and the first instruction of
the interrupt service routine is fetched (refer to
the Interrupt Mapping Table for vector address­es).

The interrupt service routine should finish with the
IRET instruction which c auses the contents o f the
saved registers to be recovered from the stack.

Note: As a consequence of the IRET instruction,
the I bit will be cleared a nd the main pro gram will
resume.

Priority Management

By default, a servicing interrupt cannot be inter­rupted because the I bit is set by hardware enter­ing in interrupt routine.

In the case when several inte rrupt s ar e simultane­ously pending, an hardware priority defines which
one will be serviced first (see the Interrupt Map­ping Table).

Interrupts and Low Power Mode

All interrupts allow the processor to leave the
WAIT low power mode. Only external and specifi­cally mentioned interrupts allow the proc essor to
leave the HALT low power mode (refer to the “Exit
from HALT“ column in the I nterrupt Mapping Ta­ble).

5.1 NON MASKABLE SOFTWARE INTERRUPT

This interrupt is entered when the TRAP instruc­tion is executed regardless of the state of the I bit.

It will be serviced according to the flowchart on

Figure 19.

5.2 EXTERNAL INTERRUPTS

External interrupt vectors can be loaded into the
PC register if the corresponding ext ernal interrupt
occurred and if the I bit is cleared. These interrupts
allow the processor to leave the Halt low power
mode.

The external interrupt polarity is selected through
the miscellaneous register or interrupt register (if
available).

An external interrupt triggered on edge will be
latched and the interrupt request automatically
cleared upon entering the interrupt service routine.

If several input pins, connected to the same inter­rupt vector, are configured as interrupts, their sig­nals are logically ANDed before entering the edge/
level detection block.

Caution: The type of sensitivity defined in the Mis­cellaneous or Interrupt register (if available) ap­plies to the ei source. In case of an ANDed source
(as described on the I/O ports section), a low level
on an I/O pin configured as input with interrupt,
masks the interrupt request even in case of rising­edge sensitivity.

5.3 PERIPHERAL INTERRUPTS

Different peripheral interrupt flags in the status
register are able to cause an interrupt when they
are active if both:

– The I bit of the CC register is cleared.
– The corresponding enable bit is set in the control

register.

If any of these two conditions is false, the interrupt
is latched and thus remains pending.

Clearing an interrupt request is done by:
– Writing “0” to the corresponding bit in the status

register or

– Access to the status register while the f lag i s set

followed by a read or write of an associated reg­ister.

Note: the clearing sequence resets the internal
latch. A pending interrupt (i.e. waiting for being en­abled) will therefore be lost if the clear sequence is
executed.

6 POWER SAVIN G MO DES

6.1 INTRODUCTION

To give a large measure of flexibility to the applica­tion in terms of power consumption, three main
power saving modes are implemented in the ST7
(see Figure 20).

After a RESET the normal operating mode is se­lected by default (RUN mode). This mode drives
the device (CPU and embedded peripherals) by
means of a master clock which is based on the
main oscillator frequency divided by 2 (f

From Run mode, the different power saving
modes may be selected by setting the relevant
register bits or by calling the specific ST7 software
instruction whose action depends on the the oscil­lator status.

).

6.2 SLOW MODE

This mode has two targets:

– To reduce power consumption by decreasing the

internal clock in the device,

– To adapt the internal clock frequency (f

CPU

) to

the available supply voltage.

SLOW mode is controlled by three bits in the
MISCR1 register: the SMS bit which enables or
disables Slow mode and two CPx bits which select
the internal slow frequency (f

CPU

).

In this mode, the oscillator frequency can be divid­ed by 4, 8, 16 or 32 instead of 2 in norm al ope ra t­ing mode. The CPU and peripherals are clocked at
this lower frequency.

Note: SLOW-WAIT mode is activated when enter­ring the WAIT mode while the device is already in
SLOW mode.

6.3 WAIT MODE

WAIT mode places the MCU in a low power con­sumption mode by stopping the CPU.
This pow er s av in g mode is s elected by ca llin g the
“WFI” ST7 software instruction.
All peripherals remain active. During WAIT mode,
the I bit of the CC register are forced to 0, to ena­ble all interrupts. All other registers and memory
remain unchanged. The MCU remains in WAIT
mode until an interrupt or Reset occu rs, where up­on the Program Counter branc hes to the starting
address of the interrupt or Reset service routine.
The MCU will r e main in W AIT mod e unt il a Rese t
or an Interrupt occurs, causing it to wake up.

6.4 HALT MODE

The HALT mode is the lowest power consumption
mode of the MCU. It is entered by executing the
ST7 HALT instruction (see Figure 24).

The MCU can exit HALT m ode on reception of ei­ther an specific interrupt (see Table 4, “Interrupt
Mapping,” on page 26) or a RESET. When exiting
HALT mode by means of a RESET or an interrupt,
the oscillator is immediately turned on and the
4096 CPU cycle delay is used to stabilize the os­cillator. After the start up delay, the CPU resumes
operation by servicing the i nterrupt or by fetching
the reset vector which woke it up (see Figure 23).

When entering HALT mode, the I bit in the CC reg­ister is forced to 0 to e nable interrupt s. Therefore,
if an interrupt is pending, the MCU wakes immedi­ately.

In the HALT mode the m ain oscillator is t urned o ff
causing all internal processing to be stopped, in­cluding the operation of the on-chip peripherals.
All peripherals are not clocked except the ones
which get their clock supply from another clock
generator (such as an external or auxiliary oscilla­tor).

The compatibility of Watchdog operation with
HALT mode is configured by t he “WD GHA LT” op­tion bit of the option byte. The HALT instruction
when executed while the Watchdog system is en­abled, can generate a Watchdog RESET (see

Section 11.1 OPTION BYTES for more details).

2. Peripheral clocked with an external clock source
can still be active.

3. Only some spec ific interrupt s can exit the MCU
from HALT mode (su ch as ex ternal i nterrupt). Re­fer to Table 4, “Interrupt Mapping,” on page 26 for
more details.

4. Before servicing an interrupt, the CC register is
pushed on the stack. The I bit of the CC register is
set during the interrupt routine and cleared when
the CC register is popped.

7 ON-CHIP PERIPHERALS

7.1 I/O PORTS

7.1.1 Introd uct i on

The I/O ports offer different functional modes:

– transfer of data through digital inputs and outputs
and for specific pins:
– analog signal input (ADC)
– alternate signal input/output for the on-chip pe-

ripherals.
– external interrupt generation
An I/O port is composed of up to 8 pins. Each pin

can be programmed independently as digital input
(with or without interrupt generation) or digital out­put.

7.1.2 Functional Description

Each port is associated to 2 main registers:
– Data Register (DR)
– Data Direction Register (DDR)
and some of them to an optional register (see reg-

ister description):
– Option Register (OR)
Each I/O pin may be programmed using the corre-

sponding register bits in DDR and OR registers: bit
X corresponding to pin X of the port. The same cor­respondence is used for the DR register.

The following description takes into account the
OR register, for specific ports which do not provide
this register refer to the I/O Port Implementation

Section 7.1.2.5. The generic I/O block diagram is

shown on Figure 26.

7.1.2.1 Input Modes

The input configuration is sele cted by clearing the
corresponding DDR register bit.

In this case, reading the DR register returns the
digital value applied to the external I/O pin.

Different input modes can be selected by software
through the OR register.

Notes:

1. All the inputs are triggered by a Schmitt trigger.

2. When switching from input mode to output
mode, the DR register should be written first to
output the correct value as soon as the port is con­figured as an output.

Interrupt function

When an I/O is configured in Input with Interrupt,
an event on thi s I/O can generat e an external In­terrupt request to the CPU. The interrupt sensitivi­ty is given independently according to the descrip­tion mentioned in the Miscellaneous register or in
the interrupt register (where available).

Each pin can independently generate an Interrupt
request.

Each external interrupt vector is linked t o a dedi­cated group of I/O port pins (see Interrupts sec­tion). If more than one input pin is selected simul­taneously as interrupt source, this is logically
ORed. For this reason if one of the interrupt pins is
tied low, it masks the other ones.

7.1.2.2 Output Mode

The pin is configured in output mode by setting the
corresponding DDR register bit.

In this mode, writing “0” or “1” to the DR register
applies this digital value to the I/O pin through the
latch. Then reading the DR register returns the
previously stored value.

Note: In this mode, the interrupt function is disa­bled.

7.1.2.3 Digital Alternate Function

When an on-chip peripheral is configured to use a
pin, the alternate function is au tomatically select­ed. This alternate function takes priority over
standard I/O programming. When the signal is
coming from an on-chip peripheral, the I/O pin is
automatically configured in output mode (push-pull
or open drain according to the peripheral).

When the signal is goi ng to an on-chip peripheral,
the I/O pin ha s to be configured in i nput mode. In
this case, the pin’s state is a lso digitally readable
by addressing the DR register.

Notes:

1. Input pull-up configuration can cause an unex ­pected value at the input of the alternate peripher­al input.

2. When the on-chip peripheral uses a pin as input
and output, this pin must be configured as an input
(DDR = 0).

Warning

vated as long as the pin is configured as input with
interrupt, in order to avoid generating spurious in­terrupts.
