The ST72F521 and ST72521B devices are members of the ST7 microcontroller family designed for
mid-range applications with a CAN bus interface
(Controller Area Network).
All devices are based on a common industrystandard 8-bit core, featuring an enhan ced instruction set and are available with FLASH or ROM program memory.
Under software control, all devices can be placed
in WAIT, SLOW, ACTIVE-HALT or HALT mode,

reducing power consumption when the application
is in idle or stand-by state.
The enhanced instruction set and addressing
modes of the ST7 offer both power and flexibility to
software developers, enabling the design of highly
efficient and compact application code. In addition
to standard 8-bit data management, all ST7 micr ocontrollers feature true bit manipulation, 8x8 unsigned multiplication and indirect addressing
modes.

4 FLASH PROGRAM MEMORY
4.1 Introduction
The ST7 dual voltage High Density Flash
(HDFlash) is a non-volatile memory that can be
electrically erased as a single block or by individual sectors and programmed on a Byte-by-Byte basis using an external V
supply.
PP
The HDFlash devices can be programmed and
erased off-board (plugged in a programming tool)
or on-board using ICP (In-Circuit Programming) or
IAP (In-Application Programming).
The array matrix organisation allows each sector
to be erased and reprogrammed without affecting
other sectors.
4.2 Main Features
■ Three Flash programming modes:
– Insertion in a programming tool. In this mode,
all sectors including option bytes can be programmed or erased.
– ICP (In-Circuit Programming). In this mode, all
sectors including option bytes can be programmed or erased without removing the device from the application board.
– IAP (In-Application Programming) In this
mode, all sectors except Sector 0, can be pr ogrammed or erased without removing the device from the application board and while the
application is running.
■ ICT (In-Circuit Testing) for downloading and
executing user application test patterns in RAM
■ Read-out protection
■ Register Access Security System (RASS) to
prevent accidental programming or erasing
4.3 Structure
The Flash memory is organised in sectors and can
be used for both code and data storage.
Depending on the overall Flash memory size in the
microcontroller device, there are up to three user
sectors (see Table 3). Each of these sectors can
be erased independently to avoid unnecessary
erasing of the whole Flash memory when only a
partial erasing is required.
The first two sectors have a fixed size of 4 Kbytes
(see Figure 5). They are mapped in the upper par t
of the ST7 addressing space so the reset and interrupt vectors are located in Sector 0 (F000hFFFFh).
Table 3. Sectors available in Flash devices
Flash Size (bytes)Available Sectors
4KSector 0
8KSectors 0,1
> 8KSectors 0,1, 2
4.3.1 Read-out Protection
Read-out protection, when selected, provides a
protection against Program Memory content extraction and against write access to Flash memory. Even if no protection can be considered as totally unbreakable, the feature provides a very high
level of protection for a general purpose microcontroller.
In flash devices, this protection is removed by reprogramming the option. In this case, the entire
program memory is first automatically erased and
the device can be reprogrammed.
Read-out protection selection depends on the device type:
– In Flash devices it is enabled and removed
through the FMP_R bit in the option byte.
– In ROM devices it is enabled by mask option
specified in the Option List.
Note: In flash devices, the LVD is not supported if
read-out protection is enabled.

Notes:
1. If the ICCCLK or ICCDATA pins are only used
as outputs in the application, no signal isolation is
necessary. As soon as the Programming Tool is
plugged to the board, even if an ICC session is not
in progress, the ICCCLK and ICCDATA pins are
not available for the application. If they are used as
inputs by the application, isolation such as a serial
resistor has to implemented in case another device forces the signal. Refer to the Programming
Tool documentation for recommended resistor values.
2. During the ICC session, the programming tool
must control the RESET
flicts between the programming tool and the application reset circuit if it drives more than 5mA at
high level (push pull output or pull-up resistor<1K).
A schottky diode can be used to isolate the ap plication RESET circuit in this case. When using a
classical RC network with R>1K or a reset man-
pin. This can lead to con-

In all cases the user must ensure that no ex ternal

3. The use of Pin 7 of the ICC connector depends
on the Programming Tool architecture. This pin
must be connected when using most ST Programming Tools (it is used to monitor the application
power supply). Please refer to the Programming
Tool manual.
4. Pin 9 has to be connected to the OSC1 or OSCIN pin of the ST7 when the clock is not available
in the application or if the selected clock option is
not programmed in the option byte. ST7 devices
with multi-oscillator capability need to have OSC2
grounded in this case.

4.5 ICP (In-Circuit Programming)
To perform ICP the microcontroller must be
switched to ICC (In-Circuit Communication) mode
by an external controller or programming tool.
Depending on the ICP code downlo aded in RAM,
Flash memory programming can be fully customized (number of bytes to program, program locations, or selection serial communication interface
for downloading).
When using an STMicroelectronics or third-party
programming tool that supports ICP and the specific microcontroller device, the user needs only to
implement the ICP hardware interface on the application board (see Figure 6). For more details on
the pin locations, refer to the device pinout description.
4.6 IAP (In-Application Programming)
This mode uses a BootLoader program previously
stored in Sector 0 by the user (in ICP mode or by
plugging the device in a programming tool).
This mode is fully controlled by user software. This
allows it to be adapted to the user application, (user-defined strategy for entering programming
mode, choice of communications protocol used to
fetch the data to be stored, etc.). For exampl e, it is
possible to download code from the SPI, SCI, USB
or CAN interface and program it in the Flash. IAP
mode can be used to program any of the Flash
sectors except Sector 0, which is write/erase protected to allow recovery in case errors occur during the programming operation.

5.3 CPU REGISTERS
The 6 CPU registers shown in Figure 8 are not
present in the memory mapping and are acce ssed
by specific instructions.
Accumulator (A)
The Accumulator is an 8-bit general purpose register used to hold operands and the results of the
arithmetic and logic calculations and to manipulate
data.
Index Registers (X and Y)
These 8-bit registers are used to create effective
addresses or as temporary storage areas for data
manipulation. (The Cross-Assem bler 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.
Program Counter (PC)
The program counter is a 16-bit register conta ining
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).

C
The 8-bit Condition Code register contains the interrupt masksand four flags representative of the
result of the instruction just executed. This reg ister
can also be handled by the PUSH and POP instructions.
These bits can be individually tested and/or controlled by specific instructions.
Arithmetic Management Bits
Bit 4 = H Half carry.
This bit is set by hardware when a carry occurs be-
tween bits 3 and 4 of the ALU during an ADD or
ADC instructions. It is reset by hardware during
the same instructions.
0: No half carry has occurred.
1: A half carry has occurred.
This bit is tested using the JRH or JRNH instruction. The H bit is useful in BCD arithmetic subroutines.
Bit 2 = N Negative.
This bit is set and cleared by hardware. I t is r epr e-
sentative of the result sign of th e last arithmetic,
logical or data manipulation. It’s a copy of the re-
th
bit.
sult 7
0: The result of the last operation is positive or null.
1: The result of the last operation is negative
(i.e. the most significant bit is a logic 1).
This bit is accessed by the JRMI and JRPL instructions.
Bit 1 = Z Zero.
This bit is set and cleared by hardware. This bit in-
dicates that the result of the last arithmetic, logical
or data manipulation is zero.
0: The result of the last operation is different from
zero.
1: The result of the last operation is zero.
This bit is accessed by the JREQ and JRNE test
instructions.
Bit 0 = C Carry/borrow.
This bit is set and cleared by 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.
Interrupt Management Bits
Bit 5,3 = I1, I0 Interrupt
The combination of the I1 and I0 bits gives t he cur-
These two bits are set/cleared by hardware when
entering in interrupt. The loaded value is given by
the corresponding bits in the interrupt software priority registers (IxSPR). They can be also set/
cleared by software with the RIM, SIM, IRET,
HALT, WFI and PUSH/POP instructions.
See the interrupt management chapter for more
details.

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, without indicating the stack overflow. The previously
stored information is then overwritten and therefore lost. The stack also wraps in case of an underflow.

The stack is used to save the return 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 instruc-
The Stack Pointer is a 16-bit register whic h is always pointing to the next free location in the stack.
It is then decremented after d ata has been pushed
onto the stack and incremented before data is
popped from the stack (see Figure 9).
Since the stack is 256 bytes deep, the 8 most significant bits are forced by hardware. Following an
MCU Reset, or after a Reset Stack Pointer instruction (RSP), the Stack Pointer contains its reset value (the SP7 to SP0 bits are set) which is the stack
tions. In the case of an interrupt, the PCL is st ored
at the first location pointed to by the SP . Then th e
other registers are stored in the next locations as
shown in Figure 9.
– When an interrup t 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 locations in the stack area.
The device includes a range of utility features for
securing the application in critical situations (for
example in case of a power brown-out), and reducing the number of external components. An
overview is shown in Figure 11.

section.

6.1 PHASE LOCKED LOOP
If the clock frequency input to the PLL is in the
range 2 to 4 MHz, the PLL can be used to m ult iply
the frequency by two to obtain an f

of 4 to 8
MHz. The PLL is enabled by option byte. If the PLL
is disabled, then f

/2.
Caution: The PLL is not recommended for applications where timing accuracy is required. See

6.2 MULTI-OSCILLATOR (MO)
ST72F521, ST72521B
The main clock of the ST7 can be generated by
three different source types coming fro m the multioscillator block:
■ an external source
■ 4 crystal or ceramic resonator oscillators
■ an internal high frequency RC oscillator
Each oscillator is optimized for a given frequency
range in terms of consumption and is selectable
through the option byte. The associated hardware
configurations are shown in Table 4. Refer to the
electrical characteristics section for more details.
Caution: The OSC1 and/or OSC2 pins must not
be left unconnected. For the purposes of Failure
Mode and Effect Analysis, it should be noted that if
the OSC1 and/or OSC2 pins are left unconnected,
the ST7 main oscillator may start and, in this configuration, could generate an f
clock frequency
OSC
in excess of the allowed maximum (>16MHz.),
putting the ST7 in an unsafe/undefined state. The
product behaviour must therefore be considered
undefined when the OSC pins are left unconnected.
External Clock Source
In this external clock mode, a clock signal (square,
sinus or triangle) with ~50% duty cycle has to drive
the OSC1 pin while the OSC2 pin is tied to ground.
Crystal/Ceramic Oscillators
This family of oscillators has the advantage of producing a very accurate rate on the main clock of
the ST7. The selection within a list of 4 oscillators
with different frequency ranges has to be done by
option byte in order to reduce consumption (refer
to se ction 14.1 on page 201 for more details on the
frequency ranges). In this mode of the multi-oscillator, the resonator and the load capacitors have
to be placed as close as possible to the oscillator
pins in order to minimize output distortion and
start-up stabilization time. The loading capacitance values must be adjusted according to the
selected oscillator.
These oscillators are not stopped during the
RESET phase to avoid losing time in the oscillator
start-up phase.
Internal RC Oscillator
This oscillator allows a low cost solution for the
main clock of the ST7 using only an internal resistor and capacitor. Internal RC oscillator mode has
the drawback of a lower frequency accuracy and
should not be used in applications that require accurate timing.
In this mode, the two oscillator pins have to be tied
to ground.
The reset sequence manager includes three RESET sources as shown in Figure 13:
■ External RESET source pulse
■ Internal LVD RESET (Low Voltage Detection)
■ Internal WATCHDOG RESET
These sources act on the RESET
pin and it is al-
ways kept low during the delay phase.
The RESET service routine vector is fixed at ad-
dresses FFFEh-FFFFh in the ST7 memory map.
The basic RESET sequence consists of 3 phases
as shown in Figure 12:
■ Active Phase depending on the RESET source
■ 256 or 4096 CPU clock cycle delay (selected by
option byte)
■ RESET vector fetch
The 256 or 4096 CPU clock cycle delay allows the
oscillator to stabilise and ensures that recovery
has taken place from the Reset state. The shorter
or longer clock cycle delay should be selected by
option byte to correspond to the stabilization time
of the external oscillator used in the application
(see section 14.1 on page 201).

The RESET vector fetch phase duration is 2 clock
cycles.

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

A RESET signal originating from an external
source must have a duration of at least t
h(RSTL)in
in
order to be recognized (see Figure 14). This detection is asynchronous and therefore the MCU
can enter reset state even in HALT mode.

guidelines mentioned in the electrical characteristics section.
If the external RESET

(see short ext. Reset in Figure 14), the
signal on the RESET

as an output that is pulled low during at least

6.3.3 External Power-On RESET
If the LVD is disabled by option byte, to st art up the
microcontroller correctly, the user must ensure by
means of an external reset circuit that the reset
signal is held low until V
level specified for the selected f
is over the minimum

frequency.

– in static safe 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 permitting the MCU to reset
other devices.
Notes:
The LVD allows the device to be used without any
external RESET circuitry.
If the medium or low thresholds are se lected, the
detection may occur outside the specified operating voltage range. Below 3.8V, device operation is
not guaranteed.
The LVD is an optional function which can be selected by option byte.
It is recommended to make sure that the V
DD
supply voltage rises monotonously when the device is
exiting from Reset, to ensure the application functions properly.

LVD is enabled through the option byte.
