Notes: 1. The 3V/5V values for VDD are provided as these are the two selectable fixed voltages at which the HIRC
frequency is trimmed by the writer.
2. The row below the 3V/5V trim voltage row is provided to show the values for the full VDD range
operating voltage. It is recommended that the trim voltage is fixed at 3V for application voltage ranges
from 2.2V to 3.6V and fixed at 5V for application voltage ranges from 3.3V to 5.5V.
3. The minimum and maximum tolerance values provided in the table are only for the frequency at which
the writer trims the HIRC oscillator. After trimming at this chosen specific frequency any change in
HIRC oscillator frequency using the oscillator register control bits by the application program will give
a frequency tolerance to within ±20%.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
System Architecture
A key factor in the high-performance features of the Holtek range of microcontrollers is attributed
to their internal system architecture. The device takes advantage of the usual features found within
RISC microcontrollers providing increased speed of operation and enhanced performance. The
pipelining scheme is implemented in such a way that instruction fetching and instruction execution
are overlapped, hence instructions are effectively executed in one cycle, with the exception of branch
or call instructions. An 8-bit wide ALU is used in practically all instruction set operations, which
carries out arithmetic operations, logic operations, rotation, increment, decrement, branch decisions,
etc. The internal data path is simplified by moving data through the Accumulator and the ALU.
Certain internal registers are implemented in the Data Memory and can be directly or indirectly
addressed. The simple addressing methods of these registers along with additional architectural
features ensure that a minimum of external components is required to provide a functional I/O and
A/D control system with maximum reliability and flexibility. This makes the device suitable for lowcost, high-volume production for controller applications.
Clocking and Pipelining
The main system clock, derived from either a HXT, LXT, HIRC or LIRC oscillator is subdivided
into four internally generated non-overlapping clocks, T1~T4. The Program Counter is incremented
at the beginning of the T1 clock during which time a new instruction is fetched. The remaining
T2~T4 clocks carry out the decoding and execution functions. In this way, one T1~T4 clock
cycle forms one instruction cycle. Although the fetching and execution of instructions takes place
in consecutive instruction cycles, the pipelining structure of the microcontroller ensures that
instructions are effectively executed in one instruction cycle. The exception to this are instructions
where the contents of the Program Counter are changed, such as subroutine calls or jumps, in which
case the instruction will take one more instruction cycle to execute.

System Clocking and Pipelining
For instructions involving branches, such as jump or call instructions, two machine cycles are
required to complete instruction execution. An extra cycle is required as the program takes one
cycle to first obtain the actual jump or call address and then another cycle to actually execute the
branch. The requirement for this extra cycle should be taken into account by programmers in timing
sensitive applications.

Instruction Fetching
Program Counter
During program execution, the Program Counter is used to keep track of the address of the
next instruction to be executed. It is automatically incremented by one each time an instruction
is executed except for instructions, such as "JMP" or "CALL" that demand a jump to a nonconsecutive Program Memory address. Only the lower 8 bits, known as the Program Counter Low
Register, are directly addressable by the application program.
When executing instructions requiring jumps to non-consecutive addresses such as a jump
instruction, a subroutine call, interrupt or reset, etc., the microcontroller manages program control
by loading the required address into the Program Counter. For conditional skip instructions, once
the condition has been met, the next instruction, which has already been fetched during the present
instruction execution, is discarded and a dummy cycle takes its place while the correct instruction is
obtained.
Program Counter
High Byte
Low Byte (PCL)
PC10~PC8
PC7~PC0
Program Counter
The lower byte of the Program Counter, known as the Program Counter Low register or PCL, is
available for program control and is a readable and writeable register. By transferring data directly
into this register, a short program jump can be executed directly; however, as only this low byte
is available for manipulation, the jumps are limited to the present page of memory that is 256
locations. When such program jumps are executed it should also be noted that a dummy cycle
will be inserted. Manipulating the PCL register may cause program branching, so an extra cycle is
needed to pre-fetch.
Stack
This is a special part of the memory which is used to save the contents of the Program Counter only.
The stack is organized into 8 levels and is neither part of the data nor part of the program space,
and is neither readable nor writeable. The activated level is indexed by the Stack Pointer, and is
neither readable nor writeable. At a subroutine call or interrupt acknowledge signal, the contents of
the Program Counter are pushed onto the stack. At the end of a subroutine or an interrupt routine,
signaled by a return instruction, RET or RETI, the Program Counter is restored to its previous value
from the stack. After a device reset, the Stack Pointer will point to the top of the stack.
If the stack is full and an enabled interrupt takes place, the interrupt request flag will be recorded but
the acknowledge signal will be inhibited. When the Stack Pointer is decremented, by RET or RETI,
the interrupt will be serviced. This feature prevents stack overflow allowing the programmer to use
the structure more easily. However, when the stack is full, a CALL subroutine instruction can still
be executed which will result in a stack overflow. Precautions should be taken to avoid such cases
which might cause unpredictable program branching.
If the stack is overflow, the first Program Counter save in the stack will be lost.

Arithmetic and Logic Unit – ALU
The arithmetic-logic unit or ALU is a critical area of the microcontroller that carries out arithmetic
and logic operations of the instruction set. Connected to the main microcontroller data bus, the ALU
receives related instruction codes and performs the required arithmetic or logical operations after
which the result will be placed in the specified register. As these ALU calculation or operations may
result in carry, borrow or other status changes, the status register will be correspondingly updated to
reflect these changes. The ALU supports the following functions:
• Arithmetic operations:
ADD, ADDM, ADC, ADCM, SUB, SUBM, SBC, SBCM, DAA
• Logic operations:
AND, OR, XOR, ANDM, ORM, XORM, CPL, CPLA
• Rotation:
RRA, RR, RRCA, RRC, RLA, RL, RLCA, RLC
• Increment and Decrement:
INCA, INC, DECA, DEC

Flash Program Memory
The Program Memory is the location where the user code or program is stored. For this device the
Program Memory is Flash type, which means it can be programmed and re-programmed a large
number of times, allowing the user the convenience of code modification on the same device. By
using the appropriate programming tools, the Flash device offers users the flexibility to conveniently
debug and develop their applications while also offering a means of field programming and
updating.
Structure
The Program Memory has a capacity of 2K×16 bits. The Program Memory is addressed by the
Program Counter and also contains data, table information and interrupt entries. Table data, which
can be setup in any location within the Program Memory, is addressed by a separate table pointer
registers.

Program Memory Structure
Special Vectors
Within the Program Memory, certain locations are reserved for the reset and interrupts. The location
000H is reserved for use by the device reset for program initialisation. After a device reset is
initiated, the program will jump to this location and begin execution.
Look-up Table
Any location within the Program Memory can be defined as a look-up table where programmers can
store fixed data. To use the look-up table, the table pointer must first be setup by placing the address
of the look up data to be retrieved in the table pointer register, TBLP and TBHP. These registers
define the total address of the look-up table.
After setting up the table pointer, the table data can be retrieved from the Program Memory using
the "TABRD [m]" or "TABRDL [m]" instructions respectively. When the instruction is executed,
the lower order table byte from the Program Memory will be transferred to the user defined Data
Memory register [m] as specified in the instruction. The higher order table data byte from the
Program Memory will be transferred to the TBLH special register.

Table Program Example
The accompanying example shows how the table pointer and table data is defined and retrieved from
the device. This example uses raw table data located in the last page which is stored there using the
ORG statement. The value at this ORG statement is "0700H" which refers to the start address of
the last page within the 2K Program Memory of the device. The table pointer low byte register is
setup here to have an initial value of "06H". This will ensure that the first data read from the data
table will be at the Program Memory address "0706H" or 6 locations after the start of the last page.
Note that the value for the table pointer is referenced to the first address of the present page pointed
by the TBHP register if the "TABRD [m]" instruction is being used. The high byte of the table data
which in this case is equal to zero will be transferred to the TBLH register automatically when the
"TABRD [m]" instruction is executed.
Because the TBLH register is a read-only register and cannot be restored, care should be taken
to ensure its protection if both the main routine and Interrupt Service Routine use table read
instructions. If using the table read instructions, the Interrupt Service Routines may change the
value of the TBLH and subsequently cause errors if used again by the main routine. As a rule it is
recommended that simultaneous use of the table read instructions should be avoided. However, in
situations where simultaneous use cannot be avoided, the interrupts should be disabled prior to the
execution of any main routine table-read instructions. Note that all table related instructions require
two instruction cycles to complete their operation.

In Circuit Programming – ICP
The provision of Flash type Program Memory provides the user with a means of convenient and
easy upgrades and modifications to their programs on the same device.
As an additional convenience, Holtek has provided a means of programming the microcontroller incircuit using a 4-pin interface. This provides manufacturers with the possibility of manufacturing
their circuit boards complete with a programmed or un-programmed microcontroller, and then
programming or upgrading the program at a later stage. This enables product manufacturers to easily
keep their manufactured products supplied with the latest program releases without removal and reinsertion of the device.

On-Chip Debug Support – OCDS
There is an EV chip named HT66V0176 which is used to emulate the real MCU device named
HT66F0176. The EV chip device also provides the "On-Chip Debug" function to debug the real
MCU device during development process. The EV chip and real MCU device, HT66V0176 and
HT66F0176, are almost functional compatible except the "On-Chip Debug" function. Users can
use the EV chip device to emulate the real MCU device behaviors by connecting the OCDSDA
and OCDSCK pins to the Holtek HT-IDE development tools. The OCDSDA pin is the OCDS
Data/Address input/output pin while the OCDSCK pin is the OCDS clock input pin. When users
use the EV chip device for debugging, the corresponding pin functions shared with the OCDSDA
and OCDSCK pins in the real MCU device will have no effect in the EV chip. However, the two
OCDS pins which are pin-shared with the ICP programming pins are still used as the Flash Memory
programming pins for ICP. For more detailed OCDS information, refer to the corresponding
document named "Holtek e-Link for 8-bit MCU OCDS User’s Guide".

Data Memory
The Data Memory is an 8-bit wide RAM internal memory and is the location where temporary
information is stored.
Structure
Divided into two parts, the first of these is an area of RAM, known as the Special Function Data
Memory. Here are located registers which are necessary for correct operation of the device. Many
of these registers can be read from and written to directly under program control, however, some
remain protected from user manipulation. The second area of Data Memory is known as the General
Purpose Data Memory, which is reserved for general purpose use. All locations within this area are
read and write accessible under program control.
The overall Data Memory is subdivided into two banks. The Special Purpose Data Memory registers
are accessible in all banks, with the exception of the EEC register at address 40H, which is only
accessible in Bank 1. Switching between the different Data Memory banks is achieved by setting the
Bank Pointer to the correct value. The start address of the Data Memory for the device is the address
00H.
The address range of the Special Purpose Data Memory for the device is from 00H to 7FH while the
address range of the General Purpose Data Memory is from 80H to FFH.

Special Function Register Description
Most of the Special Function Register details will be described in the relevant functional section.
However, several registers require a separate description in this section.
Indirect Addressing Registers – IAR0, IAR1
The Indirect Addressing Registers, IAR0 and IAR1, although having their locations in normal
RAM registers space, do not actually physically exist as normal registers. The method of indirect
addressing for RAM data manipulation uses these Indirect Addressing Registers and Memory
Pointers, in contrast to direct memory addressing, where the actual memory address is specified.
Actions on the IAR0 and IAR1 registers will result in no actual read or write operation to these
registers but rather to the memory location specified by their corresponding Memory Pointers,
MP0 or MP1. Acting as a pair, IAR0 and MP0 can together access data only from Bank 0 while
the IAR1 register together with MP1 register pair can access data from any Data Memory bank. As
the Indirect Addressing Registers are not physically implemented, reading the Indirect Addressing
Registers indirectly will return a result of "00H" and writing to the registers indirectly will result in
no operation.
Memory Pointers – MP0, MP1
Two Memory Pointers, known as MP0 and MP1, are provided. These Memory Pointers are
physically implemented in the Data Memory and can be manipulated in the same way as normal
registers providing a convenient way with which to address and track data. When any operation to
the relevant Indirect Addressing Registers is carried out, the actual address that the microcontroller
is directed to is the address specified by the related Memory Pointer. MP0, together with Indirect
Addressing Register, IAR0, are used to access data from Bank 0, while MP1 together with IAR1 are
used to access data from all data banks according to the corresponding BP register.
The following example shows how to clear a section of four Data Memory locations already defined
as locations adres1 to adres4.
Indirect Addressing Program Example
data .section ‘data’
adres1 db ?
adres2 db ?
adres3 db ?
adres4 db ?
block db ?
code .section at 0 ‘code’
org 00h
start:
mov a,04h; setup size of block
mov block,a
mov a,offset adres1 ; Accumulator loaded with first RAM address
mov mp0,a ; setup memory pointer with first RAM address
loop:
clr IAR0 ; clear the data at address defined by MP0
inc mp0; increment memory pointer
sdz block ; check if last memory location has been cleared
jmp loop
continue:
:
The important point to note here is that in the example shown above, no reference is made to specific
RAM addresses.

Bank Pointer – BP
For this device, the Data Memory is divided into two banks, Bank0 and Bank1. Selecting the
required Data Memory area is achieved using the Bank Pointer. Bit 0 of the Bank Pointer is used to
select Data Memory Banks 0~1.
The Data Memory is initialised to Bank 0 after a reset, except for a WDT time-out reset in the
Power Down Mode, in which case, the Data Memory bank remains unaffected. Directly addressing
the Data Memory will always result in Bank 0 being accessed irrespective of the value of the Bank
Pointer. Accessing data from Bank1 must be implemented using Indirect Addressing.

Accumulator – ACC
The Accumulator is central to the operation of any microcontroller and is closely related with
operations carried out by the ALU. The Accumulator is the place where all intermediate results
from the ALU are stored. Without the Accumulator it would be necessary to write the result of
each calculation or logical operation such as addition, subtraction, shift, etc., to the Data Memory
resulting in higher programming and timing overheads. Data transfer operations usually involve
the temporary storage function of the Accumulator; for example, when transferring data between
one user defined register and another, it is necessary to do this by passing the data through the
Accumulator as no direct transfer between two registers is permitted.
Program Counter Low Register – PCL
To provide additional program control functions, the low byte of the Program Counter is made
accessible to programmers by locating it within the Special Purpose area of the Data Memory. By
manipulating this register, direct jumps to other program locations are easily implemented. Loading
a value directly into this PCL register will cause a jump to the specified Program Memory location,
however, as the register is only 8-bit wide, only jumps within the current Program Memory page are
permitted. When such operations are used, note that a dummy cycle will be inserted.
Look-up Table Registers – TBLP, TBHP, TBLH
These three special function registers are used to control operation of the look-up table which is
stored in the Program Memory. TBLP and TBHP are the table pointer and indicates the location
where the table data is located. Their value must be setup before any table read commands are
executed. Their value can be changed, for example using the "INC" or "DEC" instructions, allowing
for easy table data pointing and reading. TBLH is the location where the high order byte of the table
data is stored after a table read data instruction has been executed. Note that the lower order table
data byte is transferred to a user defined location.

Status Register – STATUS
This 8-bit register contains the zero flag (Z), carry flag (C), auxiliary carry flag (AC), overflow flag
(OV), power down flag (PDF), and watchdog time-out flag (TO). These arithmetic/logical operation
and system management flags are used to record the status and operation of the microcontroller.
With the exception of the TO and PDF flags, bits in the status register can be altered by instructions
like most other registers. Any data written into the status register will not change the TO or PDF flag.
In addition, operations related to the status register may give different results due to the different
instruction operations. The TO flag can be affected only by a system power-up, a WDT time-out or
by executing the "CLR WDT" or "HALT" instruction. The PDF flag is affected only by executing
the "HALT" or "CLR WDT" instruction or during a system power-up.
The Z, OV, AC, and C flags generally reflect the status of the latest operations.
• C is set if an operation results in a carry during an addition operation or if a borrow does not take
place during a subtraction operation; otherwise C is cleared. C is also affected by a rotate through
carry instruction.
• AC is set if an operation results in a carry out of the low nibbles in addition, or no borrow from
the high nibble into the low nibble in subtraction; otherwise AC is cleared.
• Z is set if the result of an arithmetic or logical operation is zero; otherwise Z is cleared.
• OV is set if an operation results in a carry into the highest-order bit but not a carry out of the
highest-order bit, or vice versa; otherwise OV is cleared.
• PDF is cleared by a system power-up or executing the "CLR WDT" instruction. PDF is set by
executing the "HALT" instruction.
• TO is cleared by a system power-up or executing the "CLR WDT" or "HALT" instruction. TO is
set by a WDT time-out.
In addition, on entering an interrupt sequence or executing a subroutine call, the status register will
not be pushed onto the stack automatically. If the contents of the status registers are important and if
the subroutine can corrupt the status register, precautions must be taken to correctly save it.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
EEPROM Data Memory
The device contains an area of internal EEPROM Data Memory. EEPROM, which stands for
Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory, is by its nature a non-volatile form
of re-programmable memory, with data retention even when its power supply is removed. By
incorporating this kind of data memory, a whole new host of application possibilities are made
available to the designer. The availability of EEPROM storage allows information such as product
identification numbers, calibration values, specific user data, system setup data or other product
information to be stored directly within the product microcontroller. The process of reading and
writing data to the EEPROM memory has been reduced to a very trivial affair.
EEPROM Data Memory Structure
The EEPROM Data Memory capacity is 64×8 bits for the device. Unlike the Program Memory
and RAM Data Memory, the EEPROM Data Memory is not directly mapped into memory space
and is therefore not directly addressable in the same way as the other types of memory. Read and
Write operations to the EEPROM are carried out in single byte operations using an address and data
register in bank 0 and a single control register in bank 1.
EEPROM Registers
Three registers control the overall operation of the internal EEPROM Data Memory. These are the
address registers, EEA, the data register, EED and a single control register, EEC. As the EEA and
EED registers are located in bank 0, they can be directly accessed in the same was as any other
Special Function Register. The EEC register, however, being located in bank 1, can be read from
or written to indirectly using the MP1 Memory Pointer and Indirect Addressing Register, IAR1.
Because the EEC control register is located at address 40H in bank 1, the MP1 Memory Pointer
register must first be set to the value 40H and the Bank Pointer register, BP, set to the value, 01H,
before any operations on the EEC register are executed.

Reading Data from the EEPROM
To read data from the EEPROM, the read enable bit, RDEN, in the EEC register must first be set
high to enable the read function. The EEPROM address of the data to be read must then be placed
in the EEA register. If the RD bit in the EEC register is now set high, a read cycle will be initiated.
Setting the RD bit high will not initiate a read operation if the RDEN bit has not been set. When
the read cycle terminates, the RD bit will be automatically cleared to zero, after which the data can
be read from the EED register. The data will remain in the EED register until another read or write
operation is executed. The application program can poll the RD bit to determine when the data is
valid for reading.
Writing Data to the EEPROM
The EEPROM address of the data to be written must first be placed in the EEA register and the data
placed in the EED register. To write data to the EEPROM, the write enable bit, WREN, in the EEC
register must first be set high to enable the write function. After this, the WR bit in the EEC register
must be immediately set high to initiate a write cycle. These two instructions must be executed
consecutively. The global interrupt bit EMI should also first be cleared before implementing any
write operations, and then set again after the write cycle has started. Note that setting the WR bit
high will not initiate a write cycle if the WREN bit has not been set. As the EEPROM write cycle is
controlled using an internal timer whose operation is asynchronous to microcontroller system clock,
a certain time will elapse before the data will have been written into the EEPROM. Detecting when
the write cycle has finished can be implemented either by polling the WR bit in the EEC register or
by using the EEPROM interrupt. When the write cycle terminates, the WR bit will be automatically
cleared to zero by the microcontroller, informing the user that the data has been written to the
EEPROM. The application program can therefore poll the WR bit to determine when the write cycle
has ended.
Write Protection
Protection against inadvertent write operation is provided in several ways. After the device is
powered on, the Write Enable bit in the control register will be cleared preventing any write
operations. Also at power-on the Bank Pointer register, BP, will be reset to zero, which means that
Data Memory bank 0 will be selected. As the EEPROM control register is located in bank 1, this
adds a further measure of protection against spurious write operations. During normal program
operation, ensuring that the Write Enable bit in the control register is cleared will safeguard against
incorrect write operations.
EEPROM Interrupt
The EEPROM write interrupt is generated when an EEPROM write cycle has ended. The EEPROM
interrupt must first be enabled by setting the DEE bit in the relevant interrupt register. However, as
the EEPROM is contained within a Multi-function Interrupt, the associated multi-function interrupt
enable bit must also be set. When an EEPROM write cycle ends, the DEF request flag and its
associated multi-function interrupt request flag will both be set. If the global, EEPROM and Multifunction interrupts are enabled and the stack is not full, a jump to the associated Multi-function
Interrupt vector will take place. When the interrupt is serviced only the Multi-function interrupt flag
will be automatically reset, the EEPROM interrupt flag must be manually reset by the application
program.

Programming Considerations
Care must be taken that data is not inadvertently written to the EEPROM. Protection can be Periodic
by ensuring that the Write Enable bit is normally cleared to zero when not writing. Also the Bank
Pointer register could be normally cleared to zero as this would inhibit access to bank1 where the
EEPROM control register exist. Although certainly not necessary, consideration might be given
in the application program to the checking of the validity of new write data by a simple read back
process. When writing data the WR bit must be set high immediately after the WREN bit has been
set high, to ensure the write cycle executes correctly. The global interrupt bit EMI should also be
cleared before a write cycle is executed and then re-enabled after the write cycle starts. Note that
the device should not enter the IDLE or SLEEP mode until the EEPROM read or write operation is
totally complete. Otherwise, the EEPROM read or write operation will fail.

Oscillators
Various oscillator types offer the user a wide range of functions according to their various application
requirements. The flexible features of the oscillator functions ensure that the best optimisation can
be achieved in terms of speed and power saving. Oscillator selections and operation are selected
through a combination of configuration options and relevant control registers.
Oscillator Overview
In addition to being the source of the main system clock the oscillators also provide clock sources
for the Watchdog Timer and Time Base Interrupts. External oscillators requiring some external
components as well as fully integrated internal oscillators, requiring no external components, are
provided to form a wide range of both fast and slow system oscillators. All oscillator options are
selected through configuration options. The higher frequency oscillators provide higher performance
but carry with it the disadvantage of higher power requirements, while the opposite is of course true
for the lower frequency oscillators. With the capability of dynamically switching between fast and
slow system clock, the device has the flexibility to optimize the performance/power ratio, a feature
especially important in power sensitive portable applications.

System Clock Configurations
There are four methods of generating the system clock, two high speed oscillators and two low
speed oscillators for the device. The high speed oscillator is the external crystal/ceramic oscillator,
HXT, and the internal 8/12/16 MHz RC oscillator, HIRC. The two low speed oscillators are the
internal 32 kHz RC oscillator, LIRC, and the external 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator, LXT. Selecting
whether the low or high speed oscillator is used as the system oscillator is implemented using the
HLCLK bit and CKS2~CKS0 bits in the SMOD register and as the system clock can be dynamically
selected.
The actual source clock used for each of the high and low speed oscillators is chosen via
configuration options. The frequency of the slow speed or high speed system clock is also
determined using the HLCLK bit and CKS2~CKS0 bits in the SMOD register. Note that two
oscillator selections must be made namely one high speed and one low speed system oscillators. It is
not possible to choose a no-oscillator selection for either the high or low speed oscillator. The OSC1
and OSC2 pins are used to connect the external components for the external crystal.

External Crystal/Ceramic Oscillator – HXT
The External Crystal/Ceramic System Oscillator is one of the high frequency oscillator choices,
which is selected via configuration option. For most crystal oscillator configurations, the simple
connection of a crystal across OSC1 and OSC2 will create the necessary phase shift and feedback for
oscillation, without requiring external capacitors. However, for some crystal types and frequencies,
to ensure oscillation, it may be necessary to add two small value capacitors, C1 and C2. Using a
ceramic resonator will usually require two small value capacitors, C1 and C2, to be connected as
shown for oscillation to occur. The values of C1 and C2 should be selected in consultation with the
crystal or resonator manufacturer’s specification.
For oscillator stability and to minimise the effects of noise and crosstalk, it is important to ensure
that the crystal and any associated resistors and capacitors along with interconnecting lines are all
located as close to the MCU as possible.

Internal High Speed RC Oscillator – HIRC
The internal RC oscillator is a fully integrated system oscillator requiring no external components.
The internal RC oscillator has three fixed frequencies of 8MHz, 12MHz and 16MHz. Device
trimming during the manufacturing process and the inclusion of internal frequency compensation
circuits are used to ensure that the influence of the power supply voltage, temperature and process
variations on the oscillation frequency are minimised. As a result, at a power supply of either 3V
or 5V and at a temperature of 25°C degrees, the fixed oscillation frequency of 8MHz, 12MHz or
16MHz will have a tolerance within 1%. Note that if this internal system clock option is selected, as
it requires no external pins for its operation, I/O pins are free for use as normal I/O pins.
External 32.768 kHz Crystal Oscillator – LXT
The External 32.768kHz Crystal System Oscillator is one of the low frequency oscillator choices,
which is selected via configuration option. This clock source has a fixed frequency of 32.768 kHz
and requires a 32.768 kHz crystal to be connected between pins XT1 and XT2. The external resistor
and capacitor components connected to the 32.768 kHz crystal are necessary to provide oscillation.
For applications where precise frequencies are essential, these components may be required to
provide frequency compensation due to different crystal manufacturing tolerances. During power-up
there is a time delay associated with the LXT oscillator waiting for it to start-up.
When the microcontroller enters the SLEEP or IDLE Mode, the system clock is switched off to stop
microcontroller activity and to conserve power. However, in many microcontroller applications
it may be necessary to keep the internal timers operational even when the microcontroller is in
the SLEEP or IDLE Mode. To do this, another clock, independent of the system clock, must be
provided.
However, for some crystals, to ensure oscillation and accurate frequency generation, it is necessary
to add two small value external capacitors, C1 and C2. The exact values of C1 and C2 should
be selected in consultation with the crystal or resonator manufacturer specification. The external
parallel feedback resistor, RP, is required.
Some configuration options determine if the XT1/XT2 pins are used for the LXT oscillator or as I/O
or other pin-shared functional pins.
• If the LXT oscillator is not used for any clock source, the XT1/XT2 pins can be used as normal I/O
or other pin-shared functional pins.
• If the LXT oscillator is used for any clock source, the 32.768 kHz crystal should be connected to
the XT1/XT2 pins.
For oscillator stability and to minimise the effects of noise and crosstalk, it is important to ensure
that the crystal and any associated resistors and capacitors along with interconnecting lines are all
located as close to the MCU as possible.

LXT Oscillator Low Power Function
The LXT oscillator can function in one of two modes, the Quick Start Mode and the Low Power
Mode. The mode selection is executed using the LXTLP bit in the TBC register.
LXTLP Bit
LXT Mode
0
Quick Start
1
Low-power
After power on, the LXTLP bit will be automatically cleared to zero ensuring that the LXT
oscillator is in the Quick Start operating mode. In the Quick Start Mode the LXT oscillator will
power up and stabilise quickly. However, after the LXT oscillator has fully powered up it can be
placed into the Low-power mode by setting the LXTLP bit high. The oscillator will continue to run
but with reduced current consumption, as the higher current consumption is only required during
the LXT oscillator start-up. In power sensitive applications, such as battery applications, where
power consumption must be kept to a minimum, it is therefore recommended that the application
program sets the LXTLP bit high about 2 seconds after power-on. It should be noted that, no matter
what condition the LXTLP bit is set to, the LXT oscillator will always function normally, the only
difference is that it will take more time to start up if in the Low-power mode.
Internal 32kHz Oscillator – LIRC
The Internal 32kHz System Oscillator is one of the low frequency oscillator choices, which is
selected via configuration option. It is a fully integrated RC oscillator with a typical frequency of 32kHz
from 2.2V to 5.5V, requiring no external components for its implementation. Device trimming
during the manufacturing process and the inclusion of internal frequency compensation circuits are
used to ensure that the influence of the power supply voltage, temperature and process variations on
the oscillation frequency are minimised.
Supplementary Oscillators
The low speed oscillators, in addition to providing a system clock source are also used to provide
a clock source to two other device functions. These are the Watchdog Timer and the Time Base
Interrupts.

Operating Modes and System Clocks
Present day applications require that their microcontrollers have high performance but often still
demand that they consume as little power as possible, conflicting requirements that are especially
true in battery powered portable applications. The fast clocks required for high performance will
by their nature increase current consumption and of course, vice-versa, lower speed clocks reduce
current consumption. As Holtek has provided the device with both high and low speed clock sources
and the means to switch between them dynamically, the user can optimise the operation of their
microcontroller to achieve the best performance/power ratio.
System Clocks
The device has many different clock sources for both the CPU and peripheral function operation.
By providing the user with a wide range of clock options using configuration options and register
programming, a clock system can be configured to obtain maximum application performance.
The main system clock, can come from either a high frequency fH or low frequency fSUB source, and
is selected using the HLCLK bit and CKS2~CKS0 bits in the SMOD register. The high speed system
clock can be sourced from either an HXT or HIRC oscillator, selected via a configuration option.
The low speed system clock source can be sourced from internal clock fSUB. If fSUB is selected then it
can be sourced by either the LXT or LIRC oscillator, selected via a configuration option. The other
choice, which is a divided version of the high speed system oscillator has a range of fH/2~ fH/64.
There are two additional internal clocks for the peripheral circuits, the substitute clock, fSUB, and
the Time Base clock, fTBC. Each of these internal clocks is sourced by either the LXT or LIRC
oscillators, selected via configuration options. The fSUB clock is used to provide a substitute clock for
the microcontroller just after a wake-up has occurred to enable faster wake-up times.

System Operation Modes
There are six different operation modes for the microcontroller, each one with its own special
characteristics and which can be chosen according to the specific performance and power
requirements of the application. There are two modes allowing normal operation of the
microcontroller, the FAST Mode and SLOW Mode. The remaining four modes, the SLEEP0,
SLEEP1, IDLE0 and IDLE1 Mode, are used when the microcontroller CPU is switched off to
conserve power.

FAST Mode
As the name suggests this is one of the main operating modes where the microcontroller has all of
its functions operational and where the system clock is provided by one of the high speed oscillators.
This mode operates allowing the microcontroller to operate normally with a clock source will come
from one of the high speed oscillators, either the HXT or HIRC oscillators. The high speed oscillator
will however first be divided by a ratio ranging from 1 to 64, the actual ratio being selected by the
CKS2~CKS0 and HLCLK bits in the SMOD register. Although a high speed oscillator is used,
running the microcontroller at a divided clock ratio reduces the operating current.
SLOW Mode
This is also a mode where the microcontroller operates normally although now with a slower speed
clock source. The clock source used will be from one of the low speed oscillators, either the LXT
or the LIRC. Running the microcontroller in this mode allows it to run with much lower operating
currents. In the SLOW Mode, the fH is off.
SLEEP0 Mode
The SLEEP0 Mode is entered when an HALT instruction is executed and when the IDLEN bit in
the SMOD register is low. In the SLEEP0 mode the CPU will be stopped, the fSUB clock will also be
stopped and the Watchdog Timer function is disabled. In this mode, the LVDEN must be set to "0".
If the LVDEN is set to "1", it won’t enter the SLEEP0 Mode.
SLEEP1 Mode
The SLEEP1 Mode is entered when an HALT instruction is executed and when the IDLEN bit in the
SMOD register is low. In the SLEEP1 mode the CPU will be stopped. However the fSUB clock will
continue to operate if the LVDEN is "1" or the Watchdog Timer function is enabled.
IDLE0 Mode
The IDLE0 Mode is entered when a HALT instruction is executed and when the IDLEN bit in the
SMOD register is high and the FSYSON bit in the CTRL register is low. In the IDLE0 Mode the
system oscillator will be inhibited from driving the CPU but some peripheral functions will remain
operational such as the Watchdog Timer and TMs. In the IDLE0 Mode, the system oscillator will be
stopped.

The IDLE1 Mode is entered when an HALT instruction is executed and when the IDLEN bit in the
SMOD register is high and the FSYSON bit in the CTRL register is high. In the IDLE1 Mode the
system oscillator will be inhibited from driving the CPU but may continue to provide a clock source
to keep some peripheral functions operational such as the Watchdog Timer and TMs. In the IDLE1
Mode, the system oscillator will continue to run, and this system oscillator may be high speed or low
speed system oscillator.

Bit 4FSTEN: Fast Wake-up Control (only for HXT)

This is the Fast Wake-up Control bit which determines if the fSUB clock source is

be used as a temporary system clock to provide a faster wake up time as the fSUB clock
is available.
Bit 3LTO: Low speed system oscillator ready flag
0: Not ready
1: Ready
This is the low speed system oscillator ready flag which indicates when the low speed
system oscillator is stable after power on reset or a wake-up has occurred. The flag
will be low when in the SLEEP0 Mode but after a wake-up has occurred, the flag will
change to a high level after 128 clock cycles if the LXT oscillator is used and 1~2
clock cycles if the LIRC oscillator is used.
Bit 2HTO: High speed system oscillator ready flag

This is the high speed system oscillator ready flag which indicates when the high speed
system oscillator is stable. This flag is cleared to "0" by hardware when the device is

Therefore this flag will always be read as "1" by the application program after device
power-on. The flag will be low when in the SLEEP or IDLE0 Mode but after a wakeup has occurred, the flag will change to a high level after 128 clock cycles if the HXT
oscillator is used and after 15~16 clock cycles if the HIRC oscillator is used.
Bit 1IDLEN: IDLE mode control
0: Disable

This is the IDLE mode control bit and determines what happens when the HALT
instruction is executed. If this bit is high, when a HALT instruction is executed, the
device will enter the IDLE mode. In the IDLE mode the CPU will stop running but
the system clock will continue to keep the peripheral functions operational, if the
FSYSON bit is high. If the FSYSON bit is low, the CPU and the system clock will all
stop in IDLE0 mode. If the bit is low, the device will enter the SLEEP mode when a
HALT instruction is executed.
Bit 0HLCLK: System clock selection
0: fH/2~fH/64 or fSUB
1: fH
This bit is used to select if the fH clock or the fH/2~fH/64 or fSUB clock is used as
the system clock. When the bit is high the fH clock will be selected and if low the
fH/2~fH/64 or fSUB clock will be selected. When system clock switches from the fH
clock to the fSUB clock and the fH clock will be automatically switched off to conserve

Fast Wake-up
To minimise power consumption the device can enter the SLEEP or IDLE0 Mode, where the system
clock source to the device will be stopped. However when the device is woken up again, it can take
a considerable time for the original system oscillator to restart, stabilise and allow normal operation
to resume. To ensure the device is up and running as fast as possible a Fast Wake-up function is
provided, which allows fSUB, namely either the LXT or LIRC oscillator, to act as a temporary clock
to first drive the system until the original system oscillator has stabilised. As the clock source for
the Fast Wake-up function is fSUB, the Fast Wake-up function is only available in the SLEEP1 and
IDLE0 modes. When the device is woken up from the SLEEP0 mode, the Fast Wake-up function has
no effect because the fSUB clock is stopped. The Fast Wake-up enable/disable function is controlled
using the FSTEN bit in the SMOD register.
If the HXT oscillator is selected as the FAST Mode system clock, and if the Fast Wake-up function
is enabled, then it will take one to two tSUB clock cycles of the LIRC or LXT oscillator for the system
to wake-up. The system will then initially run under the fSUB clock source until 128 HXT clock
cycles have elapsed, at which point the HTO flag will switch high and the system will switch over to
operating from the HXT oscillator.
If the HIRC oscillator or LIRC oscillator is used as the system oscillator then it will take 15~16
clock cycles of the HIRC or 1~2 cycles of the LIRC to wake up the system from the SLEEP or
IDLE0 Mode. The Fast Wake-up bit, FSTEN will have no effect in these cases.

Operating Mode Switching
The device can switch between operating modes dynamically allowing the user to select the best
performance/power ratio for the present task in hand. In this way microcontroller operations that
do not require high performance can be executed using slower clocks thus requiring less operating
current and prolonging battery life in portable applications.
In simple terms, Mode Switching between the FAST Mode and SLOW Mode is executed using the
HLCLK bit and CKS2~CKS0 bits in the SMOD register while Mode Switching from the FAST/
SLOW Modes to the SLEEP/IDLE Modes is executed via the HALT instruction. When a HALT
instruction is executed, whether the device enters the IDLE Mode or the SLEEP Mode is determined
by the condition of the IDLEN bit in the SMOD register and the FSYSON bit in the CTRL register.

When the HLCLK bit switches to a low level, which implies that clock source is switched from the
high speed clock, fH, to the clock source, fH/2~fH/64 or fSUB. If the clock is from the fSUB, the high
speed clock source will stop running to conserve power. When this happens, it must be noted that
the fH/16 and fH/64 internal clock sources will also stop running, which may affect the operation of
other internal functions such as the TMs. The accompamying chart shows what happens when the
device moves between the various operating modes.

FAST Mode to SLOW Mode Switching
When running in the FAST Mode, which uses the high speed system oscillator, and therefore
consumes more power, the system clock can switch to run in the SLOW Mode by set the HLCLK bit
to "0" and set the CKS2~CKS0 bits to "000" or "001" in the SMOD register. This will then use the
low speed system oscillator which will consume less power. Users may decide to do this for certain
operations which do not require high performance and can subsequently reduce power consumption.
The SLOW Mode is sourced from the LXT or LIRC oscillator determined by the configuration
option and therefore requires this oscillator to be stable before full mode switching occurs. This is
monitored using the LTO bit in the SMOD register.

SLOW Mode to FAST Mode Switching
In SLOW mode the system uses either the LXT or LIRC low speed system oscillator. To switch back
to the FAST Mode, where the high speed system oscillator is used, the HLCLK bit should be set to
"1" or HLCLK bit is "0", but CKS2~CKS0 field is set to "010", "011", "100", "101", "110" or "111".
As a certain amount of time will be required for high speed system oscillator stabilization depends
upon which high speed system oscillator type is used.

following will occur:
• The system clock, WDT clock and Time Base clock will be stopped and the application program
will stop at the "HALT" instruction.
• The Data Memory contents and registers will maintain their present condition.
• The WDT will be cleared and stopped no matter the WDT clock source orginates from the LXT

Standby Current Considerations
As the main reason for entering the SLEEP or IDLE Mode is to keep the current consumption of the
device to as low a value as possible, perhaps only in the order of several micro-amps except in the
IDLE1 Mode, there are other considerations which must also be taken into account by the circuit
designer if the power consumption is to be minimised. Special attention must be made to the I/O pins
on the device. All high-impedance input pins must be connected to either a fixed high or low level as
any floating input pins could create internal oscillations and result in increased current consumption.
This also applies to the device which has different package types, as there may be unbonbed pins.
These must either be setup as outputs or if setup as inputs must have pull-high resistors connected.
Care must also be taken with the loads, which are connected to I/O pins, which are setup as outputs.
These should be placed in a condition in which minimum current is drawn or connected only to
external circuits that do not draw current, such as other CMOS inputs. Also note that additional
standby current will also be required if the LIRC oscillator has enabled.
In the IDLE1 Mode the system oscillator is on, if the system oscillator is from the high speed
oscillator, the additional standby current will also be perhaps in the order of several hundred microamps.
Wake-up
To minimise power consumption the device can enter the SLEEP or any IDLE Mode, where the
CPU will be switched off. However, when the device is woken up again, it will take a considerable
time for the original system oscillator to restart, stablise and allow normal operation to resume.
After the system enters the SLEEP or IDLE Mode, it can be woken up from one of various sources
listed as follows:
• An external falling edge on Port A
• A system interrupt
• A WDT overflow
When the device executes the "HALT" instruction, it will enter the Power down mode and the PDF
flag will be set to 1. The PDF flag will be cleared to 0 if the device experiences a system power-up
or executes the clear Watchdog Timer instruction. If the system is woken up by a WDT overflow, a
Watchdog Timer reset will be initiated and the TO flag will be set to 1. The TO flag is set if a WDT
time-out occurs and causes a wake-up that only resets the Program Counter and Stack Pointer, other
flags remain in their original status.
Each pin on Port A can be setup using the PAWU register to permit a negative transition on the pin
to wake up the system. When a Port A pin wake-up occurs, the program will resume execution at
the instruction following the "HALT" instruction. If the system is woken up by an interrupt, then
two possible situations may occur. The first is where the related interrupt is disabled or the interrupt
is enabled but the stack is full, in which case the program will resume execution at the instruction
following the "HALT" instruction. In this situation, the interrupt which woke up the device will not
be immediately serviced, but will rather be serviced later when the related interrupt is finally enabled
or when a stack level becomes free. The other situation is where the related interrupt is enabled and
the stack is not full, in which case the regular interrupt response takes place. If an interrupt request
flag is set high before entering the SLEEP or IDLE Mode, the wake-up function of the related
interrupt will be disabled.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
Programming Considerations
The high speed and low speed oscillators both use the same SST counter. For example, if the system
is woken up from the SLEEP0 Mode and both the HIRC and LXT oscillators need to start-up from
an off state. The LXT oscillator uses the SST counter after the HIRC oscillator has finished its SST
period.
• If the device is woken up from the SLEEP0 Mode to the FAST Mode, the high speed system
oscillator needs an SST period. The device will execute first instruction after HTO is "1". At this
time, the LXT oscillator may not be stability if fSUB is from LXT oscillator. The same situation
occurs in the power-on state. The LXT oscillator is not ready yet when the first instruction is
executed.
• If the device is woken up from the SLEEP1 Mode to FAST Mode, and the system clock source
is from the HXT oscillator and FSTEN is "1", the system clock can be switched to the LIRC
oscillator after wake up.
• There are peripheral functions, such as WDT and TMs, for which the fSYS is used. If the system
clock source is switched from fH to fSUB, the clock source to the peripheral functions mentioned
above will change accordingly.
• The on/off condition of fSUB and fS depends upon whether the WDT is enabled or disabled as the
WDT clock source is selected from fSUB.

Watchdog Timer
The Watchdog Timer is provided to prevent program malfunctions or sequences from jumping to
unknown locations, due to certain uncontrollable external events such as electrical noise.
Watchdog Timer Clock Source
The Watchdog Timer clock source is provided by the internal clock, fSUB, which is in turn supplied by
the LIRC or LXT oscillator. The LXT oscillator is supplied by an external 32.768 kHz crystal. The
LIRC internal oscillator has an approximate frequency of 32 kHz at a supply voltage of 5V. However,
it should be noted that this specified internal clock frequency can vary with VDD, temperature and
process variations. The Watchdog Timer source clock is then subdivided by a ratio of 28 to 218 to give
longer timeouts, the actual value being chosen using the WS2~WS0 bits in the WDTC register.
Watchdog Timer Control Register
A single register, WDTC, controls the required timeout period as well as the enable/disable
operation. This register controls the overall operation of the Watchdog Timer.

Watchdog Timer Operation
The Watchdog Timer operates by providing a device reset when its timer overflows. This means
that in the application program and during normal operation the user has to strategically clear the
Watchdog Timer before it overflows to prevent the Watchdog Timer from executing a reset. This is
done using the clear watchdog instruction. If the program malfunctions for whatever reason, jumps
to an unknown location, or enters an endless loop, the clear instruction will not be executed in the
correct manner, in which case the Watchdog Timer will overflow and reset the device. With regard to
the Watchdog Timer enable/disable function, there are five bits, WE4~WE0, in the WDTC register
to offer the enable/disable control and reset control of the Watchdog Timer. The WDT function will
be disabled when the WE4~WE0 bits are set to a value of 10101B while the WDT function will
be enabled if the WE4~WE0 bits are equal to 01010B. If the WE4~WE0 bits are set to any other
values, except 01010B and 10101B, it will reset the device after a delay time,tSRESET. After power on
these bits will have a value of 01010B.

Watchdog Timer Enable/Disable Control
Under normal program operation, a Watchdog Timer time-out will initialise a device reset and set
the status bit TO. However, if the system is in the SLEEP or IDLE Mode, when a Watchdog Timer
time-out occurs, the TO bit in the status register will be set and only the Program Counter and Stack
Pointer will be reset. Three methods can be adopted to clear the contents of the Watchdog Timer.
The first is a WDT reset, which means a certain value except 01010B and 10101B written into the
WE4~WE0 field, the second is using the Watchdog Timer software clear instruction and the third is
via a HALT instruction.
There is only one method of using software instruction to clear the Watchdog Timer. That is to use
the single "CLR WDT" instruction to clear the WDT contents.
The maximum time out period is when the 218 division ratio is selected. As an example, with a 32
kHz LIRC oscillator as its source clock, this will give a maximum watchdog period of around 8
second for the 218 division ratio and a minimum timeout of 8ms for the 28 division ration.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
Reset and Initialisation
A reset function is a fundamental part of any microcontroller ensuring that the device can be set
to some predetermined condition irrespective of outside parameters. The most important reset
condition is after power is first applied to the microcontroller. In this case, internal circuitry will
ensure that the microcontroller, after a short delay, will be in a well defined state and ready to
execute the first program instruction. After this power-on reset, certain important internal registers
will be set to defined states before the program commences. One of these registers is the Program
Counter, which will be reset to zero forcing the microcontroller to begin program execution from the
lowest Program Memory address.
In addition to the power-on reset, another reset exists in the form of a Low Voltage Reset, LVR,
where a full reset is implemented in situations where the power supply voltage falls below a
certain threshold. Another type of reset is when the Watchdog Timer overflows and resets the
microcontroller. All types of reset operations result in different register conditions being setup.
Reset Functions
There are five ways in which a microcontroller reset can occur, through events occurring internally.
Power-on Reset
The most fundamental and unavoidable reset is the one that occurs after power is first applied to
the microcontroller. As well as ensuring that the Program Memory begins execution from the first
memory address, a power-on reset also ensures that certain other registers are preset to known
conditions. All the I/O port and port control registers will power up in a high condition ensuring that
all pins will be first set to inputs.
VDD
Power-on Reset
tRSTD
SST Time-out
Note: tRSTD is power-on delay with typical time=50 ms
Power-On Reset Timing Chart
Low Voltage Reset – LVR
The microcontroller contains a low voltage reset circuit in order to monitor the supply voltage of
the device. The LVR function is always enabled with a specific LVR voltage, VLVR. If the supply
voltage of the device drops to within a range of 0.9V~VLVR such as might occur when changing
the battery, the LVR will automatically reset the device internally and the LVRF bit in the CTRL
register will also be set to 1. For a valid LVR signal, a low supply voltage, i.e., a voltage in the
range between 0.9V~ VLVR must exist for a time greater than that specified by tLVR in the LVD/LVR
characteristics. If the low supply voltage state does not exceed this value, the LVR will ignore the
low supply voltage and will not perform a reset function. The actual VLVR value can be selected by
the LVS7~LVS0 bits in the LVRC register. If the LVS7~LVS0 bits have any other value, which
may perhaps occur due to adverse environmental conditions such as noise, the LVR will reset the
device after a delay time,tSRESET. When this happens, the LRF bit in the CTRL register will be set to
1. After power on the register will have the value of 01010101B. Note that the LVR function will be
automatically disabled when the device enters the power down mode.

When an actual low voltage condition occurs, as specified by one of the four defined
LVR voltage value above, an MCU reset will generated. The reset operation will be
activated after the low voltage condition keeps more than a tLVR time. In this situation
the register contents will remain the same after such a reset occurs.
Any register value, other than the four defined register values above, will also result
in the generation of an MCU reset. The reset operation will be activated after a delay
time,tSRESET. However, in this situation the register contents will be reset to the POR
value.

Input/Output Ports
Holtek microcontrollers offer considerable flexibility on their I/O ports. With the input or output
designation of every pin fully under user program control, pull-high selections for all ports and
wake-up selections on certain pins, the user is provided with an I/O structure to meet the needs of a
wide range of application possibilities.
The device provides bidirectional input/output lines labeled with port names PA~PC. These I/O
ports are mapped to the RAM Data Memory with specific addresses as shown in the Special Purpose
Data Memory table. All of these I/O ports can be used for input and output operations. For input
operation, these ports are non-latching, which means the inputs must be ready at the T2 rising edge
of instruction "MOV A, [m]", where m denotes the port address. For output operation, all the data is
latched and remains unchanged until the output latch is rewritten.

Pull-high Resistors
Many product applications require pull-high resistors for their switch inputs usually requiring the
use of an external resistor. To eliminate the need for these external resistors, all I/O pins, when
configured as an input have the capability of being connected to an internal pull-high resistor. These
pull-high resistors are selected using the relevant pull-high control registers and are implemented
using weak PMOS transistors.

Port A Wake-up
The HALT instruction forces the microcontroller into the SLEEP or IDLE Mode which preserves
power, a feature that is important for battery and other low-power applications. Various methods
exist to wake-up the microcontroller, one of which is to change the logic condition on one of the Port
A pins from high to low. This function is especially suitable for applications that can be woken up
via external switches. Each pin on Port A can be selected individually to have this wake-up feature
using the PAWU register.

I/O Port Control Registers
Each Port has its own control register, known as PAC~PCC, which controls the input/output
configuration. With this control register, each I/O pin with or without pull-high resistors can be
reconfigured dynamically under software control. For the I/O pin to function as an input, the
corresponding bit of the control register must be written as a "1". This will then allow the logic state
of the input pin to be directly read by instructions. When the corresponding bit of the control register
is written as a "0", the I/O pin will be setup as a CMOS output. If the pin is currently setup as an
output, instructions can still be used to read the output register.
However, it should be noted that the program will in fact only read the status of the output data latch
and not the actual logic status of the output pin.

Pin-remapping Function
The flexibility of the microcontroller range is greatly enhanced by the use of pins that have more
than one function. Limited numbers of pins can force serious design constraints on designers but
by supplying pins with multi-functions, many of these difficulties can be overcome. The way in
which the pin function of each pin is selected is different for each function and a priority order is
established where more than one pin function is selected simultaneously. Additionally there are two
registers, IFS0 and IFS1, to establish certain pin functions.
The limited number of supplied pins in a package can impose restrictions on the amount of functions
a certain device can contain. However by allowing the same pins to share several different functions
and providing a means of function selection, a wide range of different functions can be incorporated
into even relatively small package sizes. If the pin-shared pin function have multiple outputs
simultaneously, its pin names at the right side of the "/" sign can be used for higher priority.

Programming Considerations
Within the user program, one of the things first to consider is port initialisation. After a reset, all
of the I/O data and port control registers will be set to high. This means that all I/O pins will be
defaulted to an input state, the level of which depends on the other connected circuitry and whether
pull-high selections have been chosen. If the port control registers are then programmed to setup
some pins as outputs, these output pins will have an initial high output value unless the associated
port data registers are first programmed. Selecting which pins are inputs and which are outputs can
be achieved byte-wide by loading the correct values into the appropriate port control register or
by programming individual bits in the port control register using the "SET [m].i" and "CLR [m].i"
instructions. Note that when using these bit control instructions, a read-modify-write operation takes
place. The microcontroller must first read in the data on the entire port, modify it to the required new
bit values and then rewrite this data back to the output ports.
Port A has the additional capability of providing wake-up functions. When the device is in the
SLEEP or IDLE Mode, various methods are available to wake the device up. One of these is a high
to low transition of any of the Port A pins. Single or multiple pins on Port A can be setup to have this
function.

Timer Modules – TM
One of the most fundamental functions in any microcontroller device is the ability to control and
measure time. To implement time related functions the device includes several Timer Modules,
generally abbreviated to the name TM. The TMs are multi-purpose timing units and serve to provide
operations such as Timer/Counter, Input Capture, Compare Match Output and Single Pulse Output
as well as being the functional unit for the generation of PWM signals. Each of the TMs has two
interrupts. The addition of input and output pins for each TM ensures that users are provided with
timing units with a wide and flexible range of features.
Introduction
The device contains two TMs categorised as Periodic Type TM having a reference name of TM0 and
TM1. The main features of PTM is summarised in the accompanying table.

TM Operation
The Periodic Type TMs offer a diverse range of functions, from simple timing operations to PWM
signal generation. The key to understanding how the TM operates is to see it in terms of a free
running count-up counter whose value is then compared with the value of pre-programmed internal
comparators. When the free running count-up counter has the same value as the pre-programmed
comparator, known as a compare match situation, a TM interrupt signal will be generated which
can clear the counter and perhaps also change the condition of the TM output pin. The internal TM
counter is driven by a user selectable clock source, which can be an internal clock or an external pin.
TM Clock Source
The clock source which drives the main counter in each TM can originate from various sources.
The selection of the required clock source is implemented using the TnCK2~TnCK0 bits in the TM
control registers. The clock source can be a ratio of the system clock, fSYS, or the internal high clock,
fH, the fTBC clock source or the external TCKn pin. The TCKn pin clock source is used to allow an
external signal to drive the TM as an external clock source for event counting.

TM Interrupts
The Periodic type TM has two internal interrupt, one for each of the internal comparator A or
comparator P, which generate a TM interrupt when a compare match condition occurs. When a TM
interrupt is generated, it can be used to clear the counter and also to change the state of the TM
output pin.
TM External Pins
The Periodic type TMs each has one TM input pin, with the label TCKn. The TM input pin is
essentially a clock source for the TM and is selected using the TnCK2~TnCK0 bits in the TMnC0
register. This external TM input pin allows an external clock source to drive the internal TM. This
external TM input pin is shared with other functions but will be connected to the internal TM if
selected using the TnCK2~TnCK0 bits. The TM input pin can be chosen to have either a rising or
falling active edge. The TCKn pin is also used as the external trigger input pin in single pulse output
mode for the PTM.
The Periodic type TMs each has one output pin with the label TPn. When the TM is in the Compare
Match Output Mode, these pins can be controlled by the TM to switch to a high or low level or to
toggle when a compare match situation occurs. The external TPn output pin is also the pin where
the TM generates the PWM output waveform. The TPn pin acts as an input when the TM is setup
to operate in the Capture Input Mode. As the TPn pins are pin-shared with other functions, the TPn
pin function is enabled or disabled according to the internal TM on/off control, operation mode and
output control settings. When the corresponding TM configuration selects the TPn pin to be used as
an output pin, the associated pin will be setup as an external TM output pin. If the TM configuration
selects the TPn pin to be setup as an input pin, the input signal supplied on the associated pin can
be derived from an external signal and other pin-shared output function. If the TM configuration
determines that the TPn pin function is not used, the associated pin will be controlled by other
pin-shared functions. The details of the TPn pin for each TM type and device are provided in the
accompanying table.

TM Input/Output Pin Control Register
Selecting to have a TM input/output or whether to retain its other shared function is implemented
using the relevant TM pin function control register, with a single control bit in the pin function
control register corresponding to a TM input/output pin. Setting the specific bit high will setup the
corresponding pin as a TM input/output, if reset to low the pin will retain its original other function.

Programming Considerations
The TM Counter Registers and the Capture/Compare CCRA and CCRP registers, being either 10bit or 16-bit, all have a low and high byte structure. The high bytes can be directly accessed, but as
the low bytes can only be accessed via an internal 8-bit buffer, reading or writing to these register
pairs must be carried out in a specific way. The important point to note is that data transfer to and
from the 8-bit buffer and its related low byte only takes place when a write or read operation to its
corresponding high byte is executed.
As the CCRA and CCRP registers are implemented in the way shown in the following diagram and
accessing these register pairs is carried out in a specific way as described above, it is recommended
to use the "MOV" instruction to access the CCRA and CCRP low byte registers, named TMnAL and
TMnRPL, using the following access procedures. Accessing the CCRA or CCRP low byte registers
without following these access procedures will result in unpredictable values.

from the 8-bit buffer to the Low Byte registers.
• Reading Data from the Counter Registers and CCRA or CCRP

Note: The TCKn external pins are remapping on different pins, so before using the TMn function,
the pin-remapping function register IFS1 must be set properly.
Periodic TM Operation
The size of Periodic TM is 10-bit wide and its core is a 10-bit count-up counter which is driven by
a user selectable internal or external clock source. There are also two internal comparators with the
names, Comparator A and Comparator P. These comparators will compare the value in the counter
with CCRP and CCRA registers. The CCRP and CCRA comparators are 10-bit wide whose value is
respectively compared with all counter bits.
The only way of changing the value of the 10-bit counter using the application program is to
clear the counter by changing the TnON bit from low to high. The counter will also be cleared
automatically by a counter overflow or a compare match with one of its associated comparators.
When these conditions occur, a TM interrupt signal will also usually be generated. The Periodic
Type TM can operate in a number of different operational modes, can be driven by different clock
sources including an input pin and can also control the output pins. All operating setup conditions
are selected using relevant internal registers.

Periodic Type TM Register Description
Overall operation of the Periodic TM is controlled using a series of registers. A read only register
pair exists to store the internal counter 10-bit value, while two read/write register pairs exist to store
the internal 10-bit CCRA and CCRP value. The remaining two registers are control registers which
setup the different operating and control modes.

Bit 7TnPAU: TMn Counter Pause control
0: Run
1: Pause
The counter can be paused by setting this bit high. Clearing the bit to zero restores
normal counter operation. When in a Pause condition the TMn will remain powered up
and continue to consume power. The counter will retain its residual value when this bit
changes from low to high and resume counting from this value when the bit changes
to a low value again.

These three bits are used to select the clock source for the TMn. The external pin clock

This bit controls the overall on/off function of the TMn. Setting the bit high enables
the counter to run while clearing the bit disables the TMn. Clearing this bit to zero
will stop the counter from counting and turn off the TMn which will reduce its power
consumption. When the bit changes state from low to high the internal counter value
will be reset to zero, however when the bit changes from high to low, the internal
counter will retain its residual value until the bit returns high again. If the TMn is in
the Compare Match Output Mode then the TMn output pin will be reset to its initial
condition, as specified by the TnOC bit, when the TnON bit changes from low to high.

In the Compare Match Output Mode, the TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits determine how the
TMn output pin changes state when a compare match occurs from the Comparator A.
The TMn output pin can be setup to switch high, switch low or to toggle its present
state when a compare match occurs from the Comparator A. When the bits are both
zero, then no change will take place on the output. The initial value of the TMn output
pin should be setup using the TnOC bit in the TMnC1 register. Note that the output
level requested by the TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits must be different from the initial value
setup using the TnOC bit otherwise no change will occur on the TMn output pin when
a compare match occurs. After the TMn output pin changes state, it can be reset to its
initial level by changing the level of the TnON bit from low to high.
In the PWM Mode, the TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits determine how the TMn output pin
changes state when a certain compare match condition occurs. The TMn output
function is modified by changing these two bits. It is necessary to only change the
values of the TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits only after the TMn has been switched off.
Unpredictable PWM outputs will occur if the TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits are changed when
the TMn is running.
Bit 3TnOC: TMn TPn Output control
Compare Match Output Mode
0: Initial low
1: Initial high
PWM Output Mode/Single Pulse Output Mode
0: Active low
1: Active high
This is the output control bit for the TMn output pin. Its operation depends upon
whether TMn is being used in the Compare Match Output Mode or in the PWM Mode/
Single Pulse Output Mode. It has no effect if the TMn is in the Timer/Counter Mode.
In the Compare Match Output Mode it determines the logic level of the TMn output
pin before a compare match occurs. In the PWM Mode/Single Pulse Output Mode it
determines if the PWM signal is active high or active low.
Bit 2TnPOL: TMn TPn Output polarity control
0: Non-inverted
1: Inverted
This bit controls the polarity of the TPn output pin. When the bit is set high the TMn
output pin will be inverted and not inverted when the bit is zero. It has no effect if the
TMn is in the Timer/Counter Mode.
Bit 1TnCAPTS: TMn Capture Triiger Source selection
0: From TPn pin
1: From TCKn pin
Bit 0TnCCLR: TMn Counter Clear condition selection
0: Comparator P match
1: Comparator A match
This bit is used to select the method which clears the counter. Remember that the
Periodic TM contains two comparators, Comparator A and Comparator P, either of
which can be selected to clear the internal counter. With the TnCCLR bit set high,
the counter will be cleared when a compare match occurs from the Comparator A.
When the bit is low, the counter will be cleared when a compare match occurs from
the Comparator P or with a counter overflow. A counter overflow clearing method can
only be implemented if the CCRP bits are all cleared to zero. The TnCCLR bit is not
used in the PWM Output, Single Pulse Output or Capture Input Mode.

Periodic Type TM Operation Modes
The Periodic Type TM can operate in one of five operating modes, Compare Match Output Mode,
PWM Output Mode, Single Pulse Output Mode, Capture Input Mode or Timer/Counter Mode. The
operating mode is selected using the TnM1 and TnM0 bits in the TMnC1 register.
Compare Match Output Mode
To select this mode, bits TnM1 and TnM0 in the TMnC1 register, should be set to 00 respectively.
In this mode once the counter is enabled and running it can be cleared by three methods. These are
a counter overflow, a compare match from Comparator A and a compare match from Comparator P.
When the TnCCLR bit is low, there are two ways in which the counter can be cleared. One is when
a compare match from Comparator P, the other is when the CCRP bits are all zero which allows
the counter to overflow. Here both TnAF and TnPF interrupt request flags for Comparator A and
Comparator P respectively, will both be generated.
If the TnCCLR bit in the TMnC1 register is high then the counter will be cleared when a compare
match occurs from Comparator A. However, here only the TnAF interrupt request flag will be
generated even if the value of the CCRP bits is less than that of the CCRA registers. Therefore when
TnCCLR is high no TnPF interrupt request flag will be generated. In the Compare Match Output
Mode, the CCRA can not be set to "0".
As the name of the mode suggests, after a comparison is made, the TMn output pin will change
state. The TMn output pin condition however only changes state when a TnAF interrupt request
flag is generated after a compare match occurs from Comparator A. The TnPF interrupt request flag,
generated from a compare match occurs from Comparator P, will have no effect on the TMn output
pin. The way in which the TMn output pin changes state are determined by the condition of the
TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits in the TMnC1 register. The TMn output pin can be selected using the TnIO1
and TnIO0 bits to go high, to go low or to toggle from its present condition when a compare match
occurs from Comparator A. The initial condition of the TMn output pin, which is setup after the
TnON bit changes from low to high, is setup using the TnOC bit. Note that if the TnIO1 and TnIO0
bits are zero then no pin change will take place.

Timer/Counter Mode
To select this mode, bits TnM1 and TnM0 in the TMnC1 register should be set to 11 respectively.
The Timer/Counter Mode operates in an identical way to the Compare Match Output Mode
generating the same interrupt flags. The exception is that in the Timer/Counter Mode the TMn output
pin is not used. Therefore the above description and Timing Diagrams for the Compare Match
Output Mode can be used to understand its function. As the TMn output pin is not used in this mode,
the pin can be used as a normal I/O pin or other pin-shared function.
PWM Output Mode
To select this mode, bits TnM1 and TnM0 in the TMnC1 register should be set to 10 respectively
and also the TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits should be set to 10 respectively. The PWM function within
the TMn is useful for applications which require functions such as motor control, heating control,
illumination control, etc. By providing a signal of fixed frequency but of varying duty cycle on the
TMn output pin, a square wave AC waveform can be generated with varying equivalent DC RMS
values.
As both the period and duty cycle of the PWM waveform can be controlled, the choice of generated
waveform is extremely flexible. In the PWM mode, the TnCCLR bit has no effect as the PWM
period. Both of the CCRP and CCRA registers are used to generate the PWM waveform, one register
is used to clear the internal counter and thus control the PWM waveform frequency, while the other
one is used to control the duty cycle. The PWM waveform frequency and duty cycle can therefore
be controlled by the values in the CCRA and CCRP registers.
An interrupt flag, one for each of the CCRA and CCRP, will be generated when a compare match
occurs from either Comparator A or Comparator P. The TnOC bit in the TMnC1 register is used to
select the required polarity of the PWM waveform while the two TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits are used to
enable the PWM output or to force the TMn output pin to a fixed high or low level. The TnPOL bit
is used to reverse the polarity of the PWM output waveform.

Single Pulse Output Mode
To select this mode, bits TnM1 and TnM0 in the TMnC1 register should be set to 10 respectively
and also the TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits should be set to 11 respectively. The Single Pulse Output Mode,
as the name suggests, will generate a single shot pulse on the TMn output pin.
The trigger for the pulse output leading edge is a low to high transition of the TnON bit, which can
be implemented using the application program. However in the Single Pulse Mode, the TnON bit
can also be made to automatically change from low to high using the external TCKn pin, which will
in turn initiate the Single Pulse output. When the TnON bit transitions to a high level, the counter
will start running and the pulse leading edge will be generated. The TnON bit should remain high
when the pulse is in its active state. The generated pulse trailing edge will be generated when the
TnON bit is cleared to zero, which can be implemented using the application program or when a
compare match occurs from Comparator A.
However a compare match from Comparator A will also automatically clear the TnON bit and thus
generate the Single Pulse output trailing edge. In this way the CCRA value can be used to control the
pulse width. A compare match from Comparator A will also generate a TMn interrupt. The counter
can only be reset back to zero when the TnON bit changes from low to high when the counter
restarts. In the Single Pulse Mode CCRP is not used. The TnCCLR is not used in this Mode.

Capture Input Mode
To select this mode bits TnM1 and TnM0 in the TMnC1 register should be set to 01 respectively.
This mode enables external signals to capture and store the present value of the internal counter
and can therefore be used for applications such as pulse width measurements. The external signal is
supplied on the TPn or TCKn pin, selected by the TnCAPTS bit in the TMnC1 register. The input
pin active edge can be either a rising edge, a falling edge or both rising and falling edges; the active
edge transition type is selected using the TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits in the TMnC1 register. The counter
is started when the TnON bit changes from low to high which is initiated using the application
program.
When the required edge transition appears on the TPn or TCKn pin the present value in the counter
will be latched into the CCRA registers and a TMn interrupt generated. Irrespective of what events
occur on the TPn or TCKn pin the counter will continue to free run until the TnON bit changes from
high to low. When a CCRP compare match occurs the counter will reset back to zero; in this way
the CCRP value can be used to control the maximum counter value. When a CCRP compare match
occurs from Comparator P, a TMn interrupt will also be generated. Counting the number of overflow
interrupt signals from the CCRP can be a useful method in measuring long pulse widths. The TnIO1
and TnIO0 bits can select the active trigger edge on the TPn or TCKn pin to be a rising edge, falling
edge or both edge types. If the TnIO1 and TnIO0 bits are both set high, then no capture operation
will take place irrespective of what happens on the TPn or TCKn pin, however it must be noted that
the counter will continue to run.
As the TPn or TCKn pin is pin shared with other functions, care must be taken if the TMn is in the
Input Capture Mode. This is because if the pin is setup as an output, then any transitions on this pin
may cause an input capture operation to be executed. The TnCCLR, TnOC and TnPOL bits are not
used in this Mode.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
Analog to Digital Converter
The need to interface to real world analog signals is a common requirement for many electronic
systems. However, to properly process these signals by a microcontroller, they must first be
converted into digital signals by A/D converters. By integrating the A/D conversion electronic
circuitry into the microcontroller, the need for external components is reduced significantly with the
corresponding follow-on benefits of lower costs and reduced component space requirements.
A/D Overview
The device contains a multi-channel analog to digital converter which can directly interface to
external analog signals, such as that from sensors or other control signals and convert these signals
directly into a 12-bit digital value. It also can convert the internal signals, such as the Bandgap
reference voltage, into a 12-bit digital value. The external or internal analog signal to be converted is
determined by the SAINS2~SAINS0 bits together with the SACS2~SACS0 bits. Note that when the
external and internal analog signals are simultaneously selected to be converted, the internal analog
signal will have the priority. In the meantime the external analog signal will temporarily be switched
off until the internal analog signal is deselected. More detailed information about the A/D input
signal is described in the "A/D Converter Control Registers" and "A/D Converter Input Signals"
sections respectively.
The accompanying block diagram shows the internal structure of the A/D converter together with its
associated registers.

A/D Converter Register Description
Overall operation of the A/D converter is controlled using six registers. A read only register pair
exists to store the A/D Converter data 12-bit value. One register, ACERL, is used to configure the
external analog input pin function. The remaining three registers are control registers which setup
the operating and control function of the A/D converter.

A/D Converter Registers List
A/D Converter Data Registers – SADOL, SADOH
As the device contains an internal 12-bit A/D converter, it requires two data registers to store the
converted value. These are a high byte register, known as SADOH, and a low byte register, known
as SADOL. After the conversion process takes place, these registers can be directly read by the
microcontroller to obtain the digitised conversion value. As only 12 bits of the 16-bit register space
is utilised, the format in which the data is stored is controlled by the ADRFS bit in the SADC0
register as shown in the accompanying table. D0~D11 are the A/D conversion result data bits. Any
unused bits will be read as zero. The A/D data registers contents will keep unchanged if the A/D
converter is disabled.

A/D Converter Data Registers
A/D Converter Control Registers – SADC0, SADC1, SADC2, ACERL
To control the function and operation of the A/D converter, three control registers known as SADC0,
SADC1 and SADC2 are provided. These 8-bit registers define functions such as the selection of
which analog channel is connected to the internal A/D converter, the digitised data format, the A/D
clock source, the A/D reference voltage as well as controlling the start function and monitoring
the A/D converter busy status. As the device contains only one actual analog to digital converter
hardware circuit, each of the external and internal analog signals must be routed to the converter.
The SACS2~SACS0 bits in the SADC0 register are used to determine which external channel input
is selected to be converted. The SAINS2~SAINS0 bits in the SADC1 register are used to determine
that the analog signal to be converted comes from the internal analog signal or external analog
channel input. If the internal analog signal is selected to be converted, the external channel signal
input will automatically be switched off to avoid the signal contention.

The analog input pin function selection bits in the ACERL register determine which pins on I/O
Ports are used as external analog channels for the A/D converter input and which pins are not to be
used as the A/D converter input. When the pin is selected to be an A/D input, its original function
whether it is an I/O or other pin-shared functions will be removed. In addition, any internal pullhigh resistor connected to the pin will be automatically removed if the pin is selected to be an A/D
converter input.

A/D Converter Input Signals
All of the A/D analog input pins are pin-shared with the I/O pins as well as other functions. The
corresponding selection bits in the ACERL register determine which external input pins are selected
as A/D converter analog channel inputs or other functional pins. If the corresponding pin is setup
to be an A/D converter analog channel input, the original pin functions will be disabled. In this
way, pins can be changed under program control to change their function between A/D inputs and
other functions. All pull-high resistors, which are setup through register programming, will be
automatically disconnected if the pins are setup as A/D inputs. Note that it is not necessary to first
setup the A/D pin as an input in the port control register to enable the A/D input as when the relevant
A/D input function selection bits enable an A/D input, the status of the port control register will be
overridden.
After the desired external pins are selected as the A/D analog channel inputs using the corresponding
ACEn bits in the ACERL register, the analog signal to be converted can come from these external
channel inputs. If the SAINS2~SAINS0 bits are set to "000" or "100", the external analog channel
input will be selected to be converted and the SACS2~SACS0 bits can deternine which external
channel is selected to be converted.
If the SAINS2~SAINS0 bits are set to any other values except "000" and "100", one of the internal
analog signals can be selected to be converted. The internal analog signals can be derived from the
A/D converter supply power, VDD, or internal reference voltage, VR, with a specific ratio of 1, 1/2
or 1/4. Note that if the internal analog signal is selected to be converted, the external channel signal
input will automatically be switched off to avoid the signal contention.

A/D Converter Reference Voltage
The actual reference voltage, VREF, supplied to the A/D Converter can be derived from the positive
power supply pin, VDD, an external reference source supplied on pin VREF or an internal reference
source derived from the Bandgap circuit, a choice which is made through the SAVRS3~SAVRS0 bits
in the SADC2 register. Then the actual selected reference voltage source can be amplified through
a programmable gain amplifier except the voltage sourced from VDD. The OPA gain can be equal to
1, 2, 3 or 4. Note that the desired reference voltage selected using the SAVRS field will be output on
the VREFO pin. As the VREF and VREFO pins both are pin-shared with other functions, when the
VREF or VREFO pin is selected as the reference voltage pin, the VREF or VREFO selection bit,
VREFIEN or VREFOEN, should be properly configured to disable other pin-shared functions before
the reference voltage pin function is used. Note that the analog input values must not be allowed to
exceed the value of the reference voltage for the A/D converter.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
A/D Operation
The START bit in the SADC0 register is used to start the AD conversion. When the microcontroller
sets this bit from low to high and then low again, an analog to digital conversion cycle will be
initiated.
The ADBZ bit in the SADC0 register is used to indicate whether the analog to digital conversion
process is in progress or not. This bit will be automatically set to 1 by the microcontroller after an
A/D conversion is successfully initiated. When the A/D conversion is complete, the ADBZ will be
cleared to 0. In addition, the corresponding A/D interrupt request flag will be set in the interrupt
control register, and if the corresponding interrupt control bits are enabled, an internal interrupt
signal will be generated. This A/D internal interrupt signal will direct the program flow to the
associated A/D internal interrupt address for processing. If the A/D internal interrupt is disabled, the
microcontroller can poll the ADBZ bit in the SADC0 register to check whether it has been cleared
as an alternative method of detecting the end of an A/D conversion cycle.
The clock source for the A/D converter, which originates from the system clock fSYS, can be chosen
to be either fSYS or a subdivided version of fSYS. The division ratio value is determined by the
SACKS2~SACKS0 bits in the SADC1 register. Although the A/D clock source is determined by the
system clock fSYS and by bits SACKS2~SACKS0, there are some limitations on the maximum A/D
clock source speed that can be selected. As the recommended range of permissible A/D clock period,
tADCK, is from 0.5μs to 10μs, care must be taken for system clock frequencies. For example, as the
system clock operates at a frequency of 8MHz, the SACKS2~SACKS0 bits should not be set to 000,
001 or 111. Doing so will give A/D clock periods that are less than the minimum A/D clock period
which may result in inaccurate A/D conversion values. Refer to the following table for examples,
where values marked with an asterisk * show where, depending upon the device, special care must
be taken, as the values may be less than the specified minimum A/D Clock Period.

A/D Clock Period Examples
Controlling the power on/off function of the A/D converter circuitry is implemented using the
ENADC bit in the SADC0 register. This bit must be set high to power on the A/D converter. When
the ENADC bit is set high to power on the A/D converter internal circuitry, a certain delay, as
indicated in the timing diagram, must be allowed before an A/D conversion is initiated. Even if
no pins are selected for use as A/D inputs, if the ENADC bit is high, then some power will still be
consumed. In power conscious applications it is therefore recommended that the ENADC is set low
to reduce power consumption when the A/D converter function is not being used.

Conversion Rate and Timing Diagram
A complete A/D conversion contains two parts, data sampling and data conversion. The data
sampling which is defined as tADS takes 4 A/D clock cycles and the data conversion takes 12 A/D
clock cycles. Therefore a total of 16 A/D clock cycles for an A/D conversion which is defined as tADC
are necessary.
Maximum single A/D conversion rate=A/D clock period / 16 (1)
The accompanying diagram shows graphically the various stages involved in an analog to digital
conversion process and its associated timing. After an A/D conversion process has been initiated
by the application program, the microcontroller internal hardware will begin to carry out the
conversion, during which time the program can continue with other functions. The time taken for the
A/D conversion is 16 tADCK clock cycles where tADCK is equal to the A/D clock period.

Summary of A/D Conversion Steps
The following summarises the individual steps that should be executed in order to implement an A/D
conversion process.
• Step 1
Select the required A/D conversion clock by properly programming the SACKS2~SACKS0 bits
in the SADC1 register.
• Step 2
Enable the A/D converter by setting the ENADC bit in the SADC0 register to one.
• Step 3
Select which signal is to be connected to the internal A/D converter by correctly configuring the
SAINS and SACS bit fields
Select the external channel input to be converted, go to Step 4.
Select the internal analog signal to be converted, go to Step 5.
• Step 4
If the A/D input signal comes from the external channel input selecting by configuring the SAINS
bit field, the corresponding pins should first be configured as A/D input function by configuring
the relevant pin-shared function control bits. The desired analog channel then should be selected
by configuring the SACS bit field. After this step, go to Step 6.
• Step 5
If the A/D input signal is selected to come from the internal analog signal, the SAINS bit
field should be properly configured and then the external channel input will automatically be
disconnected regardless of the SACS bit field value. After this step, go to Step 6.
• Step 6
Select the reference voltgage source by configuring the SAVRS3~SAVRS0 bits.
• Step 7
Select the A/D converter output data format by configuring the ADRFS bit.
• Step 8
If A/D conversion interrupt is used, the interrupt control registers must be correctly configured
to ensure the A/D interrupt function is active. The master interrupt bontrol bit, EMI, and the A/D
conversion interrupt control bit, ADE, must both be set high in advance.
• Step 9
The A/D conversion procedure can now be initialized by setting the START bit from low to high
and then low again.
• Step 10
If A/D conversion is in progress, the ADBZ flag will be set high. After the A/D conversion
process is complete, the ADBZ flag will go low and then the output data can be read from
SADOH and SADOL registers.
Note: When checking for the end of the conversion process, if the method of polling the ADBZ bit
in the SADC0 register is used, the interrupt enable step above can be omitted.

Programming Considerations
During microcontroller operations where the A/D converter is not being used, the A/D internal
circuitry can be switched off to reduce power consumption, by setting bit ENADC low in the
SADC0 register. When this happens, the internal A/D converter circuits will not consume power
irrespective of what analog voltage is applied to their input lines. If the A/D converter input lines are
used as normal I/Os, then care must be taken as if the input voltage is not at a valid logic level, then
this may lead to some increase in power consumption.
A/D Transfer Function
As the device contains a 12-bit A/D converter, its full-scale converted digitised value is equal to
FFFH. Since the full-scale analog input value is equal to the actual A/D converter reference voltage,
VREF, this gives a single bit analog input value of VREF divided by 4096.
1 LSB=VREF ÷ 4096
The A/D Converter input voltage value can be calculated using the following equation:
A/D input voltage=A/D output digital value × VREF ÷ 4096
The diagram shows the ideal transfer function between the analog input value and the digitised
output value for the A/D converter. Except for the digitised zero value, the subsequent digitised
values will change at a point 0.5 LSB below where they would change without the offset, and the
last full scale digitised value will change at a point 1.5 LSB below the VREF level. Note that here the
VREF voltage is the actual A/D converter reference voltage determined by the SAVRS field.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
Serial Interface Module – SIM
The device contains a Serial Interface Module, which includes both the four-line SPI interface or
two-line I2C interface types, to allow an easy method of communication with external peripheral
hardware. Having relatively simple communication protocols, these serial interface types allow
the microcontroller to interface to external SPI or I2C based hardware such as sensors, Flash or
EEPROM memory, etc. The SIM interface pins are pin-shared with other I/O pins and therefore the
SIM interface functional pins must first be selected using the corresponding pin-remapping function
selection bits. As both interface types share the same pins and registers, the choice of whether the
SPI or I2C type is used is made using the SIM operating mode control bits, named SIM2~SIM0, in
the SIMC0 register. These pull-high resistors of the SIM pin-shared I/O pins are selected using pullhigh control registers when the SIM function is enabled and the corresponding pins are used as SIM
input pins.
SPI Interface
The SPI interface is often used to communicate with external peripheral devices such as sensors,
Flash or EEPROM memory devices, etc. Originally developed by Motorola, the four line SPI
interface is a synchronous serial data interface that has a relatively simple communication protocol
simplifying the programming requirements when communicating with external hardware devices.
The communication is full duplex and operates as a slave/master type, where the device can be
either master or slave. Although the SPI interface specification can control multiple slave devices
from a single master, the device provides only one SCS pin. If the master needs to control multiple
slave devices from a single master, the master can use I/O pin to select the slave devices.
SPI Interface Operation
The SPI interface is a full duplex synchronous serial data link. It is a four line interface with pin
names SDI, SDO, SCK and SCS. Pins SDI and SDO are the Serial Data Input and Serial Data Output
lines, SCK is the Serial Clock line and SCS is the Slave Select line. As the SPI interface pins are
pin-shared with normal I/O pins and with the I2C function pins, the SPI interface pins must first be
selected by configuring the pin-remapping function selection bits and setting the correct bits in the
SIMC0 and SIMC2 registers. After the desired SPI configuration has been set it can be disabled or
enabled using the SIMEN bit in the SIMC0 register. Communication between devices connected
to the SPI interface is carried out in a slave/master mode with all data transfer initiations being
implemented by the master. The Master also controls the clock signal. As the device only contains
a single SCS pin only one slave device can be utilized. The SCS pin is controlled by software, set
CSEN bit to 1 to enable SCS pin function, set CSEN bit to 0 the SCS pin will be floating state.
The SPI function in this device offers the following features:
• Full duplex synchronous data transfer
• Both Master and Slave modes
• LSB first or MSB first data transmission modes
• Transmission complete flag
• Rising or falling active clock edge
The status of the SPI interface pins is determined by a number of factors such as whether the device
is in the master or slave mode and upon the condition of certain control bits such as CSEN and
SIMEN.

The SIMD register is used to store the data being transmitted and received. The same register is used
by both the SPI and I2C functions. Before the device writes data to the SPI bus, the actual data to
be transmitted must be placed in the SIMD register. After the data is received from the SPI bus, the
device can read it from the SIMD register. Any transmission or reception of data from the SPI bus
must be made via the SIMD register.

There are also two control registers for the SPI interface, SIMC0 and SIMC2. Note that the SIMC2
register also has the name SIMA which is used by the I2C function. The SIMC1 register is not used
by the SPI function, only by the I2C function. Register SIMC0 is used to control the enable/disable
function and to set the data transmission clock frequency. Register SIMC2 is used for other control
functions such as LSB/MSB selection, write collision flag, etc.

These bits setup the overall operating mode of the SIM function. As well as selecting

the SPI Master clock frequency. The SPI clock is a function of the system clock but
can also be chosen to be sourced from TM1 or fTBC. If the SPI Slave Mode is selected
then the clock will be supplied by an external Master device.

00: No debounce
01: 2 system clock debounce
1x: 4 system clock debounce
Bit 1SIMEN: SIM Enable Control
0: Disable
1: Enable
The bit is the overall on/off control for the SIM interface. When the SIMEN bit is
cleared to zero to disable the SIM interface, the SDI, SDO, SCK and SCS, or SDA and
SCL lines will lose their SPI or I2C function and the SIM operating current will be
reduced to a minimum value. When the bit is high the SIM interface is enabled. The
SIM configuration option must have first enabled the SIM interface for this bit to be
effective.If the SIM is configured to operate as an SPI interface via the SIM2~SIM0
bits, the contents of the SPI control registers will remain at the previous settings when
the SIMEN bit changes from low to high and should therefore be first initialised by
the application program. If the SIM is configured to operate as an I2C interface via the
SIM2~SIM0 bits and the SIMEN bit changes from low to high, the contents of the I2C
control bits such as HTX and TXAK will remain at the previous settings and should
therefore be first initialised by the application program while the relevant I2C flags
such as HCF, HAAS, HBB, SRW and RXAK will be set to their default states.
Bit 0SIMICF: SIM Incomplete Flag
0: SIM incomplete condition not occurred
1: SIM incomplete condition occured
This bit is only available when the SIM is configured to operate in an SPI slave mode.
If the SPI operates in the slave mode with the SIMEN and CSEN bits both being set
to 1 but the SCS line is pulled high by the external master device before the SPI data
transfer is completely finished, the SIMICF bit will be set to 1 together with the TRF
bit. When this condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt will occur if the interrupt
function is enabled. However, the TRF bit will not be set to 1 if the SIMICF bit is set
to 1 by software application program.

Bit 5CKPOLB: SPI clock line base condition selection
0: The SCK line will be high when the clock is inactive.
1: The SCK line will be low when the clock is inactive.
The CKPOLB bit determines the base condition of the clock line, if the bit is high,
then the SCK line will be low when the clock is inactive. When the CKPOLB bit is
low, then the SCK line will be high when the clock is inactive.
Bit 4CKEG: SPI SCK clock active edge type selection

1: SCK is high base level and data capture at SCK falling edge
CKPOLB=1
0: SCK is low base level and data capture at SCK falling edge
1: SCK is low base level and data capture at SCK rising edge
The CKEG and CKPOLB bits are used to setup the way that the clock signal outputs
and inputs data on the SPI bus. These two bits must be configured before data transfer
is executed otherwise an erroneous clock edge may be generated. The CKPOLB bit
determines the base condition of the clock line, if the bit is high, then the SCK line
will be low when the clock is inactive. When the CKPOLB bit is low, then the SCK
line will be high when the clock is inactive. The CKEG bit determines active clock
edge type which depends upon the condition of CKPOLB bit.
Bit 3MLS: SPI data shift order
0: LSB first
1: MSB first
This is the data shift select bit and is used to select how the data is transferred, either
MSB or LSB first. Setting the bit high will select MSB first and low for LSB first.
Bit 2CSEN: SPI SCS pin control
0: Disable
1: Enable
The CSEN bit is used as an enable/disable for the SCS pin. If this bit is low, then the
SCS pin will be disabled and placed into I/O pin or other pin-shared functions. If the
bit is high, the SCS pin will be enabled and used as a select pin.
Bit 1WCOL: SPI write collision flag
0: No collision
1: Collision
The WCOL flag is used to detect whether a data collision has occurred or not. If this
bit is high, it means that data has been attempted to be written to the SIMD register
duting a data transfer operation. This writing operation will be ignored if data is being
transferred. This bit can be cleared by the application program.
Bit 0TRF: SPI Transmit/Receive complete flag
0: SPI data is being transferred
1: SPI data transfer is completed
The TRF bit is the Transmit/Receive Complete flag and is set to 1 automatically when
an SPI data transfer is completed, but must cleared to 0 by the application program. It
can be used to generate an interrupt.

SPI Communication
After the SPI interface is enabled by setting the SIMEN bit high, then in the Master Mode, when
data is written to the SIMD register, transmission/reception will begin simultaneously. When the
data transfer is complete, the TRF flag will be set automatically, but must be cleared using the
application program. In the Slave Mode, when the clock signal from the master has been received,
any data in the SIMD register will be transmitted and any data on the SDI pin will be shifted into
the SIMD register. The master should output a SCS signal to enable the slave devices before a
clock signal is provided. The slave data to be transferred should be well prepared at the appropriate
moment relative to the SCS signal depending upon the configurations of the CKPOLB bit and CKEG
bit. The accompanying timing diagram shows the relationship between the slave data and SCS signal
for various configurations of the CKPOLB and CKEG bits.
The SPI master mode will continue to function even in the IDLE Mode if the selected SPI clock
source is running.

I2C Interface
The I 2C interface is used to communicate with external peripheral devices such as sensors,
EEPROM memory etc. Originally developed by Philips, it is a two line low speed serial interface
for synchronous serial data transfer. The advantage of only two lines for communication, relatively
simple communication protocol and the ability to accommodate multiple devices on the same bus
has made it an extremely popular interface type for many applications.

I2C interface Operation
The I2C serial interface is a two line interface, a serial data line, SDA, and serial clock line, SCL. As
many devices may be connected together on the same bus, their outputs are both open drain types.
For this reason it is necessary that external pull-high resistors are connected to these outputs. Note
that no chip select line exists, as each device on the I2C bus is identified by a unique address which
will be transmitted and received on the I2C bus.
When two devices communicate with each other on the bidirectional I2C bus, one is known as the
master device and one as the slave device. Both master and slave can transmit and receive data,
however, it is the master device that has overall control of the bus. For the device, which only
operates in slave mode, there are two methods of transferring data on the I2C bus, the slave transmit
mode and the slave receive mode.

The SIMDBNC1 and SIMDBNC0 bits determine the debounce time of the I2C interface. This uses
the system clock to in effect add a debounce time to the external clock to reduce the possibility
of glitches on the clock line causing erroneous operation. The debounce time, if selected, can be
chosen to be either 2 or 4 system clocks. To achieve the required I2C data transfer speed, there
exists a relationship between the system clock, fSYS, and the I2C debounce time. For either the I2C
Standard or Fast mode operation, users must take care of the selected system clock frequency and
the configured debounce time to match the criterion shown in the following table.

I2C Registers
There are three control registers associated with the I2C bus, SIMC0, SIMC1 and SIMTOC, one
slave address register, SIMA, and one data register, SIMD. The SIMD register, which is shown in
the above SPI section, is used to store the data being transmitted and received on the I2C bus. Before
the microcontroller writes data to the I2C bus, the actual data to be transmitted must be placed in the
SIMD register. After the data is received from the I2C bus, the microcontroller can read it from the
SIMD register. Any transmission or reception of data from the I2C bus must be made via the SIMD
register.
Note that the SIMA register also has the name SIMC2 which is used by the SPI function. Bit SIMEN
and bits SIM2~SIM0 in register SIMC0 are used by the I2C interface.

• SIMD Register
The SIMD register is used to store the data being transmitted and received. The same register is used
by both the SPI and I2C functions. Before the device writes data to the I2C bus, the actual data to
be transmitted must be placed in the SIMD register. After the data is received from the I2C bus, the
device can read it from the SIMD register. Any transmission or reception of data from the I2C bus
must be made via the SIMD register.

• SIMA Register
The SIMA register is also used by the SPI interface but has the name SIMC2. The SIMA register is
the location where the 7-bit slave address of the slave device is stored. Bits 7~1 of the SIMA register
define the device slave address. Bit 0 is not defined.
When a master device, which is connected to the I2C bus, sends out an address, which matches the
slave address in the SIMA register, the slave device will be selected. Note that the SIMA register is
the same register address as SIMC2 which is used by the SPI interface.

clock frequency.The SIMC1 register contains the relevant flags which are used to indicate the I2C
communication status. The SIMTOC register is used to control the I2C bus time-out function which
is described in the I2C Time-out Control section.

Bit 1SIMEN: SIM Enable Control
0: Disable
1: Enable
The bit is the overall on/off control for the SIM interface. When the SIMEN bit is
cleared to zero to disable the SIM interface, the SDI, SDO, SCK and SCS, or SDA and
SCL lines will lose their SPI or I2C function and the SIM operating current will be
reduced to a minimum value. When the bit is high the SIM interface is enabled. The
SIM configuration option must have first enabled the SIM interface for this bit to be
effective.If the SIM is configured to operate as an SPI interface via the SIM2~SIM0
bits, the contents of the SPI control registers will remain at the previous settings when
the SIMEN bit changes from low to high and should therefore be first initialised by
the application program. If the SIM is configured to operate as an I2C interface via the
SIM2~SIM0 bits and the SIMEN bit changes from low to high, the contents of the I2C
control bits such as HTX and TXAK will remain at the previous settings and should
therefore be first initialised by the application program while the relevant I2C flags
such as HCF, HAAS, HBB, SRW and RXAK will be set to their default states.
Bit 0SIMICF: SIM Incomplete Flag
0: SIM incomplete condition not occurred
1: SIM incomplete condition occured
This bit is only available when the SIM is configured to operate in an SPI slave mode.
If the SPI operates in the slave mode with the SIMEN and CSEN bits both being set
to 1 but the SCS line is pulled high by the external master device before the SPI data
transfer is completely finished, the SIMICF bit will be set to 1 together with the TRF
bit. When this condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt will occur if the interrupt
function is enabled. However, the TRF bit will not be set to 1 if the SIMICF bit is set
to 1 by software application program.

Bit 7HCF: I2C Bus data transfer completion flag
0: Data is being transferred
1: Completion of an 8-bit data transfer
The HCF flag is the data transfer flag. This flag will be zero when data is being
transferred. Upon completion of an 8-bit data transfer the flag will go high and an
interrupt will be generated.
Bit 6HAAS: I2C Bus data transfer completion flag
0: Not address match
1: Address match
The HAAS flag is the address match flag. This flag is used to determine if the slave
device address is the same as the master transmit address. If the addresses match then
this bit will be high, if there is no match then the flag will be low.
Bit 5HBB: I2C Bus busy flag
0: I2C Bus is not busy
1: I2C Bus is busy
The HBB flag is the I2C busy flag. This flag will be "1" when the I2C bus is busy which
will occur when a START signal is detected. The flag will be set to "0" when the bus is
free which will occur when a STOP signal is detected.
Bit 4HTX: I2C slave device transmitter/receiver selection
0: Slave device is the receiver
1: Slave device is the transmitter
Bit 3TXAK: I2C bus transmit acknowledge flag
0: Slave send acknowledge flag
1: Slave does not send acknowledge flag
The TXAK bit is the transmit acknowledge flag. After the slave device receipt of 8-bits
of data, this bit will be transmitted to the bus on the 9th clock from the slave device.
The slave device must always set TXAK bit to "0" before further data is received.
Bit 2SRW: I2C slave read/write flag
0: Slave device should be in receive mode
1: Slave device should be in transmit mode
The SRW flag is the I 2C Slave Read/Write flag. This flag determines whether
the master device wishes to transmit or receive data from the I2C bus. When the
transmitted address and slave address is match, that is when the HAAS flag is set high,
the slave device will check the SRW flag to determine whether it should be in transmit
mode or receive mode. If the SRW flag is high, the master is requesting to read data
from the bus, so the slave device should be in transmit mode. When the SRW flag
is zero, the master will write data to the bus, therefore the slave device should be in
receive mode to read this data.
Bit 1IAMWU: I2C Address Match Wake-Up control
0: Disable
1: Enable – must be cleared by the application program after wake-up
This bit should be set to 1 to enable the I2C address match wake up from the SLEEP
or IDLE Mode. If the IAMWU bit has been set before entering either the SLEEP or
IDLE mode to enable the I2C address match wake up, then this bit must be cleared by
the application program after wake-up to ensure correction device operation.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
Bit 0RXAK: I2C bus receive acknowledge flag
0: Slave receives acknowledge flag
1: Slave does not receive acknowledge flag
The RXAK flag is the receiver acknowledge flag. When the RXAK flag is "0", it
means that a acknowledge signal has been received at the 9th clock, after 8 bits of data
have been transmitted. When the slave device in the transmit mode, the slave device
checks the RXAK flag to determine if the master receiver wishes to receive the next
byte. The slave transmitter will therefore continue sending out data until the RXAK
flag is "1". When this occurs, the slave transmitter will release the SDA line to allow
the master to send a STOP signal to release the I2C Bus.
I2C Bus Communication
Communication on the I2C bus requires four separate steps, a START signal, a slave device address
transmission, a data transmission and finally a STOP signal. When a START signal is placed on
the I2C bus, all devices on the bus will receive this signal and be notified of the imminent arrival of
data on the bus. The first seven bits of the data will be the slave address with the first bit being the
MSB. If the address of the slave device matches that of the transmitted address, the HAAS bit in the
SIMC1 register will be set and an I2C interrupt will be generated. After entering the interrupt service
routine, the slave device must first check the condition of the HAAS and SIMTOF bits to determine
whether the interrupt source originates from an address match, 8-bit data transfer completion or
I2C bus time-out occurrence. During a data transfer, note that after the 7-bit slave address has been
transmitted, the following bit, which is the 8th bit, is the read/write bit whose value will be placed in
the SRW bit. This bit will be checked by the slave device to determine whether to go into transmit or
receive mode. Before any transfer of data to or from the I2C bus, the microcontroller must initialise
the bus, the following are steps to achieve this:
• Step 1
Set the SIM2~SIM0 bits to "110" and SIMEN bit to "1" in the SIMC0 register to enable the I2C bus.
• Step 2
Write the slave address of the device to the I2C bus address register SIMA.
• Step 3
Set the SIME interrupt enable bit of the interrupt control register to enable the SIM interrupt.

I2C Bus Start Signal
The START signal can only be generated by the master device connected to the I2C bus and not by
the slave device. This START signal will be detected by all devices connected to the I2C bus. When
detected, this indicates that the I2C bus is busy and therefore the HBB bit will be set. A START
condition occurs when a high to low transition on the SDA line takes place when the SCL line
remains high.
I2C Slave Address
The transmission of a START signal by the master will be detected by all devices on the I2C bus.
To determine which slave device the master wishes to communicate with, the address of the slave
device will be sent out immediately following the START signal. All slave devices, after receiving
this 7-bit address data, will compare it with their own 7-bit slave address. If the address sent out by
the master matches the internal address of the microcontroller slave device, then an internal I2C bus
interrupt signal will be generated. The next bit following the address, which is the 8th bit, defines the
read/write status and will be saved to the SRW bit of the SIMC1 register. The slave device will then
transmit an acknowledge bit, which is a low level, as the 9th bit. The slave device will also set the
status flag HAAS when the addresses match.
As an I2C bus interrupt can come from three sources, when the program enters the interrupt
subroutine, the HAAS and SIMTOF bits should be examined to see whether the interrupt source has
come from a matching slave address, the completion of a data byte transfer or the I2C bus time-out
occurrence. When a slave address is matched, the device must be placed in either the transmit mode
and then write data to the SIMD register, or in the receive mode where it must implement a dummy
read from the SIMD register to release the SCL line.
I2C Bus Read/Write Signal
The SRW bit in the SIMC1 register defines whether the slave device wishes to read data from the
I2C bus or write data to the I2C bus. The slave device should examine this bit to determine if it is to
be a transmitter or a receiver. If the SRW flag is "1" then this indicates that the master device wishes
to read data from the I2C bus, therefore the slave device must be setup to send data to the I2C bus as
a transmitter. If the SRW flag is "0" then this indicates that the master wishes to send data to the I2C
bus, therefore the slave device must be setup to read data from the I2C bus as a receiver.
I2C Bus Slave Address Acknowledge Signal
After the master has transmitted a calling address, any slave device on the I 2C bus, whose
own internal address matches the calling address, must generate an acknowledge signal. The
acknowledge signal will inform the master that a slave device has accepted its calling address. If no
acknowledge signal is received by the master then a STOP signal must be transmitted by the master
to end the communication. When the HAAS flag is high, the addresses have matched and the slave
device must check the SRW flag to determine if it is to be a transmitter or a receiver. If the SRW flag
is high, the slave device should be setup to be a transmitter so the HTX bit in the SIMC1 register
should be set to "1". If the SRW flag is low, then the microcontroller slave device should be setup as
a receiver and the HTX bit in the SIMC1 register should be set to "0".

I2C Bus Data and Acknowledge Signal
The transmitted data is 8-bits wide and is transmitted after the slave device has acknowledged
receipt of its slave address. The order of serial bit transmission is the MSB first and the LSB last.
After receipt of 8-bits of data, the receiver must transmit an acknowledge signal, level "0", before
it can receive the next data byte. If the slave transmitter does not receive an acknowledge bit signal
from the master receiver, then the slave transmitter will release the SDA line to allow the master
to send a STOP signal to release the I2C Bus. The corresponding data will be stored in the SIMD
register. If setup as a transmitter, the slave device must first write the data to be transmitted into the
SIMD register. If setup as a receiver, the slave device must read the transmitted data from the SIMD
register.
When the slave receiver receives the data byte, it must generate an acknowledge bit, known as
TXAK, on the 9th clock. The slave device, which is setup as a transmitter will check the RXAK bit
in the SIMC1 register to determine if it is to send another data byte, if not then it will release the
SDA line and await the receipt of a STOP signal from the master.

I2C Time-out Control
In order to reduce the I2C lockup problem due to reception of erroneous clock sources, a time-out
function is provided. If the clock source connected to the I2C bus is not received for a while, then
the I2C circuitry and registers will be reset after a certain time-out period. The time-out counter
starts to count on an I2C bus "START" & "address match"condition, and is cleared by an SCL falling
edge. Before the next SCL falling edge arrives, if the time elapsed is greater than the time-out period
specified by the SIMTOC register, then a time-out condition will occur. The time-out function will
stop when an I2C "STOP" condition occurs.

SCOM/SSEG Function for LCD
The device has the capability of driving external LCD panels. The common and segment pins for
LCD driving, SCOM0~SCOM5 and SSEG0~SSEG19, are pin-shared with certain pins on the I/O
ports. The LCD signals, COM and SEG, are generated using the application program.
LCD Operation
An external LCD panel can be driven using the device by configuring the I/O pins as common pins
and and segment pins. The LCD driver function is controlled using the LCD control registers which
in addition to controlling the overall on/off function also controls the R-type bias current on the
SCOM and SSEG pins. This enables the LCD COM and SEG driver to generate the necessary VSS,
(1/3)VDD, (2/3)VDD and VDD voltage levels for LCD 1/3 bias operation.
The LCDEN bit in the SLCDC0 register is the overall master control for the LCD driver. This bit is
used in conjunction with the COMnEN and SEGmEN bits to select which I/O pins are used for LCD
driving. Note that the corresponding Port Control register does not need to first setup the pins as
outputs to enable the LCD driver operation.

LCD Frames
A cyclic LCD waveform includes two frames known as Frame 0 and Frame 1 for which the
following offers a functional explanation.
• Frame 0
To select Frame 0, clear the FRAME bit in the SLCDC 0 register to 0.
In frame 0, the COM signal output can have a value of VDD or a VBIAS value of (1/3)×VDD. The SEG
signal output can have a value of VSS or a VBIAS value of (2/3)×VDD.
• Frame 1
To select Frame 1, set the FRAME bit in the SLCDC0 register to 1.
In frame 1, the COM signal output can have a value of VSS or a VBIAS value of (2/3)×VDD. The SEG
signal output can have a value of VDD or a VBIAS value of (1/3)×VDD.

The COMn waveform is controlled by the application program using the FRAME bit in the
SLCDC0 register and the corresponding pin-shared I/O data bit for the respective COM pin to
determine whether the COMn output has a value of VDD, VSS or VBIAS. The SEGm waveform is
controlled in a similar way using the FRAME bit and the corresponding pin-shared I/O data bit for
the respective SEG pin to determine whether the SEGm output has a value of VDD, VSS or VBIAS.
The accompanying waveform diagram shows a typical 1/3 bias LCD waveform gemerated using
the application program together with the LCD voltage select circuit. Note that the depiction of a
"1" in the diagram illustrates an illuminated LCD pixel. The COM signal polarity generated on pins
SCOM0~SCOM5, whether "0" or "1", are generated using the corresponding pin-shared I/O data
register bit.

UART Interface
The UART interface module is contained in the device. The device contains an integrated full-duplex
asynchronous serial communications UART interface that enables communication with external
devices that contain a serial interface. The UART function has many features and can transmit and
receive data serially by transferring a frame of data with eight or nine data bits per transmission as
well as being able to detect errors when the data is overwritten or incorrectly framed. The UART
function possesses its own internal interrupt which can be used to indicate when a reception occurs
or when a transmission terminates.
The integrated UART function contains the following features:
• Full-duplex, asynchronous communication
• 8 or 9 bits character length
• Even, odd or no parity options
• One or two stop bits
• Baud rate generator with 8-bit prescaler
• Parity, framing, noise and overrun error detection
• Support for interrupt on address detect (last character bit=1)
• Separately enabled transmitter and receiver
• 2-byte Deep FIFO Receive Data Buffer
• RX pin wake-up function
• Transmit and receive interrupts
• Interrupts can be initialized by the following conditions:
♦♦
Transmitter Empty
♦♦
Transmitter Idle
♦♦
Receiver Full
♦♦
Receiver Overrun
♦♦

UART External Pin
To communicate with an external serial interface, the internal UART has two external pins known
as TX and RX. The TX and RX pins are respectively the UART transmitter and receiver pins which
are pin-shared with I/O or other pin-shared functions. Along with the UARTEN bit, the TXEN and
RXEN bits, if set, will automatically setup these I/O pins to their respective TX output and RX input
conditions and disable any pull-high resistor option which may exist on the TX and RX pins. When
the TX or RX pin function is disabled by clearing the UARTEN, TXEN or RXEN bit, the TX or RX
pin will be used as I/O or other pin-shared functional pin depending upon the pin-shared function
priority.
UART Data Transfer Scheme
The above diagram shows the overall data transfer structure arrangement for the UART interface.
The actual data to be transmitted from the MCU is first transferred to the TXR_RXR register by the
application program. The data will then be transferred to the Transmit Shift Register from where it
will be shifted out, LSB first, onto the TX pin at a rate controlled by the Baud Rate Generator. Only
the TXR_RXR register is mapped onto the MCU Data Memory, the Transmit Shift Register is not
mapped and is therefore inaccessible to the application program.
Data to be received by the UART is accepted on the external RX pin, from where it is shifted in,
LSB first, to the Receiver Shift Register at a rate controlled by the Baud Rate Generator. When the
shift register is full, the data will then be transferred from the shift register to the internal TXR_RXR
register, where it is buffered and can be manipulated by the application program. Only the TXR_
RXR register is mapped onto the MCU Data Memory, the Receiver Shift Register is not mapped and
is therefore inaccessible to the application program.
It should be noted that the actual register for data transmission and reception, although referred to
in the text, and in application programs, as separate TXR and RXR registers, only exists as a single
shared register in the Data Memory. This shared register known as the TXR_RXR register is used
for both data transmission and data reception.
UART Status and Control Registers
There are five control registers associated with the UART function. The USR, UCR1 and UCR2
registers control the overall function of the UART, while the BRG register controls the Baud rate.
The actual data to be transmitted and received on the serial interface is managed through the TXR_
RXR data registers.

Bit 7PERR: Parity error flag
0: No parity error is detected
1: Parity error is detected
The PERR flag is the parity error flag. When this read only flag is "0", it indicates a
parity error has not been detected. When the flag is "1", it indicates that the parity of
the received word is incorrect. This error flag is applicable only if Parity mode (odd or
even) is selected. The flag can also be cleared by a software sequence which involves
a read to the status register USR followed by an access to the TXR_RXR data register.
Bit 6NF: Noise flag
0: No noise is detected
1: Noise is detected
The NF flag is the noise flag. When this read only flag is "0", it indicates no noise
condition. When the flag is "1", it indicates that the UART has detected noise on the
receiver input. The NF flag is set during the same cycle as the RXIF flag but will not
be set in the case of as overrun. The NF flag can be cleared by a software sequence
which will involve a read to the status register USR followed by an access to the
TXR_RXR data register.
Bit 5FERR: Framing error flag
0: No framing error is detected
1: Framing error is detected
The FERR flag is the framing error flag. When this read only flag is "0", it indicates
that there is no framing error. When the flag is "1", it indicates that a framing error
has been detected for the current character. The flag can also be cleared by a software
sequence which will involve a read to the status register USR followed by an access to
the TXR_RXR data register.
Bit 4OERR: Overrun error flag
0: No overrun error is detected
1: Overrun error is detected
The OERR flag is the overrun error flag which indicates when the receiver buffer has
overflowed. When this read only flag is "0", it indicates that there is no overrun error.
When the flag is "1", it indicates that an overrun error occurs which will inhibit further
transfers to the TXR_RXR receive data register. The flag is cleared by a software
sequence, which is a read to the status register USR followed by an access to the
TXR_RXR data register.

Bit 3RIDLE: Receiver status
0: data reception is in progress (data being received)
1: no data reception is in progress (receiver is idle)
The RIDLE flag is the receiver status flag. When this read only flag is "0", it indicates
that the receiver is between the initial detection of the start bit and the completion of
the stop bit. When the flag is "1", it indicates that the receiver is idle. Between the
completion of the stop bit and the detection of the next start bit, the RIDLE bit is "1"
indicating that the UART receiver is idle and the RX pin stays in logic high condition.
Bit 2RXIF: Receive TXR_RXR data register status
0: TXR_RXR data register is empty
1: TXR_RXR data register has available data
The RXIF flag is the receive data register status flag. When this read only flag is "0",
it indicates that the TXR_RXR read data register is empty. When the flag is "1", it
indicates that the TXR_RXR read data register contains new data. When the contents
of the shift register are transferred to the TXR_RXR register, an interrupt is generated
if RIE=1 in the UCR2 register. If one or more errors are detected in the received word,
the appropriate receive-related flags NF, FERR, and/or PERR are set within the same
clock cycle. The RXIF flag is cleared when the USR register is read with RXIF set,
followed by a read from the TXR_RXR register, and if the TXR_RXR register has no
data available.
Bit 1TIDLE: Transmission status
0: data transmission is in progress (data being transmitted)
1: no data transmission is in progress (transmitter is idle)
The TIDLE flag is known as the transmission complete flag. When this read only
flag is "0", it indicates that a transmission is in progress. This flag will be set to "1"
when the TXIF flag is "1" and when there is no transmit data or break character being
transmitted. When TIDLE is equal to 1, the TX pin becomes idle with the pin state
in logic high condition. The TIDLE flag is cleared by reading the USR register with
TIDLE set and then writing to the TXR_RXR register. The flag is not generated when
a data character or a break is queued and ready to be sent.
Bit 0TXIF: Transmit TXR_RXR data register status
0: character is not transferred to the transmit shift register
1: character has transferred to the transmit shift register (TXR_RXR data register is
empty)
The TXIF flag is the transmit data register empty flag. When this read only flag is "0",
it indicates that the character is not transferred to the transmitter shift register. When
the flag is "1", it indicates that the transmitter shift register has received a character
from the TXR_RXR data register. The TXIF flag is cleared by reading the UART
status register (USR) with TXIF set and then writing to the TXR_RXR data register.
Note that when the TXEN bit is set, the TXIF flag bit will also be set since the transmit
data register is not yet full.

Bit 7UARTEN: UART function enable control
0: Disable UART; TX and RX pins are used as other pin-shared functional pins.
1: Enable UART; TX and RX pins can function as UART pins defined by TXEN and
RXEN bits
The UARTEN bit is the UART enable bit. When this bit is equal to "0", the UART will
be disabled and the RX pin as well as the TX pin will be other pin-shared functional
pins. When the bit is equal to "1", the UART will be enabled and the TX and RX pins
will function as defined by the TXEN and RXEN enable control bits. When the UART
is disabled, it will empty the buffer so any character remaining in the buffer will be
discarded. In addition, the value of the baud rate counter will be reset. If the UART
is disabled, all error and status flags will be reset. Also the TXEN, RXEN, TXBRK,
RXIF, OERR, FERR, PERR and NF bits will be cleared, while the TIDLE, TXIF and
RIDLE bits will be set. Other control bits in UCR1, UCR2 and BRG registers will
remain unaffected. If the UART is active and the UARTEN bit is cleared, all pending
transmissions and receptions will be terminated and the module will be reset as defined
above. When the UART is re-enabled, it will restart in the same configuration.
Bit 6BNO: Number of data transfer bits selection
0: 8-bit data transfer
1: 9-bit data transfer
This bit is used to select the data length format, which can have a choice of either
8-bit or 9-bit format. When this bit is equal to "1", a 9-bit data length format will be
selected. If the bit is equal to "0", then an 8-bit data length format will be selected. If
9-bit data length format is selected, then bits RX8 and TX8 will be used to store the
9th bit of the received and transmitted data respectively.
Bit 5PREN: Parity function enable control
0: Parity function is disabled
1: Parity function is enabled
This bit is the parity function enable bit. When this bit is equal to 1, the parity function
will be enabled. If the bit is equal to 0, then the parity function will be disabled.
Bit 4PRT: Parity type selection bit
0: Even parity for parity generator
1: Odd parity for parity generator
This bit is the parity type selection bit. When this bit is equal to 1, odd parity type will
be selected. If the bit is equal to 0, then even parity type will be selected.
Bit 3STOPS: Number of stop bits selection
0: One stop bit format is used
1: Two stop bits format is used
This bit determines if one or two stop bits are to be used. When this bit is equal to "1",
two stop bits format are used. If the bit is equal to "0", then only one stop bit format is
used.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
Bit 2TXBRK: Transmit break character
0: No break character is transmitted
1: Break characters transmit
The TXBRK bit is the Transmit Break Character bit. When this bit is equal to "0",
there are no break characters and the TX pin operats normally. When the bit is equal to
"1", there are transmit break characters and the transmitter will send logic zeros. When
this bit is equal to "1", after the buffered data has been transmitted, the transmitter
output is held low for a minimum of a 13-bit length and until the TXBRK bit is reset.
Bit 1RX8: Receive data bit 8 for 9-bit data transfer format (read only)
This bit is only used if 9-bit data transfers are used, in which case this bit location will
store the 9th bit of the received data known as RX8. The BNO bit is used to determine
whether data transfes are in 8-bit or 9-bit format.
Bit 0TX8: Transmit data bit 8 for 9-bit data transfer format (write only)
This bit is only used if 9-bit data transfers are used, in which case this bit location
will store the 9th bit of the transmitted data known as TX8. The BNO bit is used to
determine whether data transfes are in 8-bit or 9-bit format.
UCR2 Register
The UCR2 register is the second of the UART control registers and serves several purposes. One
of its main functions is to control the basic enable/disable operation if the UART Transmitter and
Receiver as well as enabling the various UART interrupt sources. The register also serves to control
the baud rate speed, receiver wake-up function enable and the address detect function enable.

Bit 7TXEN: UART Transmitter enable control
0: UART Transmitter is disabled
1: UART Transmitter is enabled
The TXEN bit is the Transmitter Enable Bit. When this bit is equal to "0", the
transmitter will be disabled with any pending data transmissions being aborted. In
addition the buffers will be reset. In this situation the TX pin will be other pin-shared
functional pin. If the TXEN bit is equal to "1" and the UARTEN bit is also equal to
1, the transmitter will be enabled and the TX pin will be controlled by the UART.
Clearing the TXEN bit during a transmission will cause the data transmission to be
aborted and will reset the transmitter. If this situation occurs, the TX pin will be other
pin-shared functional pin.
Bit 6RXEN: UART Receiver enable control
0: UART Receiver is disabled
1: UART Receiver is enabled
The RXEN bit is the Receiver Enable Bit. When this bit is equal to "0", the receiver
will be disabled with any pending data receptions being aborted. In addition the
receiver buffers will be reset. In this situation the RX pin will be other pin-shared
functional pin. If the RXEN bit is equal to "1" and the UARTEN bit is also equal
to 1, the receiver will be enabled and the RX pin will be controlled by the UART.
Clearing the RXEN bit during a reception will cause the data reception to be aborted
and will reset the receiver. If this situation occurs, the RX pin will be other pin-shared
functional pin.

Bit 5BRGH: Baud Rate speed selection
0: Low speed baud rate
1: High speed baud rate
The bit named BRGH selects the high or low speed mode of the Baud Rate Generator.
This bit, together with the value placed in the baud rate register, BRG, controls the
baud rate of the UART. If the bit is equal to 0, the low speed mode is selected.
Bit 4ADDEN: Address detect function enable control
0: Address detection function is disabled
1: Address detection function is enabled
The bit named ADDEN is the address detection function enable control bit. When this
bit is equal to 1, the address detection function is enabled. When it occurs, if the 8th
bit, which corresponds to RX7 if BNO=0, or the 9th bit, which corresponds to RX8 if
BNO=1, has a value of "1", then the received word will be identified as an address,
rather than data. If the corresponding interrupt is enabled, an interrupt request will be
generated each time the received word has the address bit set, which is the 8th or 9th
bit depending on the value of the BNO bit. If the address bit known as the 8th or 9th
bit of the received word is "0" with the address detection function being enabled, an
interrupt will not be generated and the received data will be discarded.
Bit 3WAKE: RX pin wake-up UART function enable control
0: RX pin wake-up UART function is disabled
1: RX pin wake-up UART function is enabled
This bit is used to control the wake-up UART function when a falling edge on the RX
pin occurs. Note that this bit is only available when the UART clock (fH) is switched
off. There will be no RX pin wake-up UART function if the UART clock (fH) exists.
If the WAKE bit is set to 1 as the UART clock (fH) is switched off, a UART wakeup request will be initiated when a falling edge on the RX pin occurs. When this
request happens and the corresponding interrupt is enabled, an RX pin wake-up UART
interrupt will be generated to inform the MCU to wake up the UART function by
switching on the UART clock (fH) via the application program. Otherwise, the UART
function can not resume even if there is a falling edge on the RX pin when the WAKE
bit is cleared to 0.
Bit 2RIE: Receiver interrupt enable control
0: Receiver related interrupt is disabled
1: Receiver related interrupt is enabled
The bit enables or disables the receiver interrupt. If this bit is equal to 1 and when the
receiver overrun flag OERR or received data available flag RXIF is set, the UART
interrupt request flag will be set. If this bit is equal to 0, the UART interrupt request
flag will not be influenced by the condition of the OERR or RXIF flags.
Bit 1TIIE: Transmitter Idle interrupt enable control
0: Transmitter idle interrupt is disabled
1: Transmitter idle interrupt is enabled
The bit enables or disables the transmitter idle interrupt. If this bit is equal to 1 and
when the transmitter idle flag TIDLE is set, due to a transmitter idle condition, the
UART interrupt request flag will be set. If this bit is equal to 0, the UART interrupt
request flag will not be influenced by the condition of the TIDLE flag.
Bit 0TEIE: Transmitter Empty interrupt enable control
0: Transmitter empty interrupt is disabled
1: Transmitter empty interrupt is enabled
The bit enables or disables the transmitter empty interrupt. If this bit is equal to 1 and
when the transmitter empty flag TXIF is set, due to a transmitter empty condition, the
UART interrupt request flag will be set. If this bit is equal to 0, the UART interrupt
request flag will not be influenced by the condition of the TXIF flag.

Baud Rate Generator
To setup the speed of the serial data communication, the UART function contains its own dedicated
baud rate generator. The baud rate is controlled by its own internal free running 8-bit timer, the
period of which is determined by two factors. The first of these is the value placed in the BRG
register and the second is the value of the BRGH bit within the UCR2 control register. The BRGH
bit decides, if the baud rate generator is to be used in a high speed mode or low speed mode, which
in turn determines the formula that is used to calculate the baud rate. The value in the BRG register,
N, which is used in the following baud rate calculation formula determines the division factor. Note
that N is the decimal value placed in the BRG register and has a range of between 0 and 255.

By programming the BRGH bit which allows selection of the related formula and programming the
required value in the BRG register, the required baud rate can be setup. Note that because the actual
baud rate is determined using a discrete value, N, placed in the BRG register, there will be an error
associated between the actual and requested value. The following example shows how the BRG
register value N and the error value can be calculated.

Bit 7~0BRG7~BRG0: Baud Rate values
By programming the BRGH bit in the UCR2 register which allows selection of the
related formula described above and programming the required value in the BRG
register, the required baud rate can be setup.
Calculating the Baud Rate and Error Values
For a clock frequency of 4MHz, and with BRGH cleared to zero determine the BRG register value N,
the actual baud rate and the error value for a desired baud rate of 4800.
From the above table the desired baud rate BR=fH / [64 (N+1)]
Re-arranging this equation gives N=[fH / (BR×64)] - 1
Giving a value for N=[4000000 / (4800×64)] - 1=12.0208
To obtain the closest value, a decimal value of 12 should be placed into the BRG register. This gives
an actual or calculated baud rate value of BR=4000000 / [64 × (12+1)]=4808
Therefore the error is equal to (4808 - 4800) / 4800=0.16%

UART Setup and Control
For data transfer, the UART function utilizes a non-return-to-zero, more commonly known as NRZ,
format. This is composed of one start bit, eight or nine data bits and one or two stop bits. Parity
is supported by the UART hardware and can be setup to be even, odd or no parity. For the most
common data format, 8 data bits along with no parity and one stop bit, denoted as 8, N, 1, is used
as the default setting, which is the setting at power-on. The number of data bits and stop bits, along
with the parity, are setup by programming the corresponding BNO, PRT, PREN and STOPS bits in
the UCR1 register. The baud rate used to transm it and receive data is setup using the internal 8-bit
baud rate generator, while the data is transmitted and received LSB first. Although the transmitter
and receiver of the UART are functionally independent, they both use the same data format and baud
rate. In all cases stop bits will be used for data transmission.
Enabling/Disabling the UART Interface
The basic on/off function of the internal UART function is controlled using the UARTEN bit in the
UCR1 register. If the UARTEN, TXEN and RXEN bits are set, then these two UART pins will act
as normal TX output pin and RX input pin respectively. If no data is being transmitted on the TX
pin, then it will default to a logic high value.
Clearing the UARTEN bit will disable the TX and RX pins and these two pins will be used as I/
O or other pin-shared functional pins. When the UART function is disabled, the buffer will be
reset to an empty condition, at the same time discarding any remaining residual data. Disabling the
UART will also reset the enable control, the error and status flags with bits TXEN, RXEN, TXBRK,
RXIF, OERR, FERR, PERR and NF being cleared while bits TIDLE, TXIF and RIDLE will be
set. The remaining control bits in the UCR1, UCR2 and BRG registers will remain unaffected.
If the UARTEN bit in the UCR1 register is cleared while the UART is active, then all pending
transmissions and receptions will be immediately suspended and the UART will be reset to a
condition as defined above. If the UART is then subsequently re-enabled, it will restart again in the
same configuration.
Data, Parity and Stop Bit Selection
The format of the data to be transferred is composed of various factors such as data bit length,
parity on/off, parity type, address bits and the number of stop bits. These factors are determined by
the setup of various bits within the UCR1 register. The BNO bit controls the number of data bits
which can be set to either 8 or 9. The PRT bit controls the choice if odd or even parity. The PREN
bit controls the parity on/off function. The STOPS bit decides whether one or two stop bits are to
be used. The following table shows various formats for data transmission. The address bit, which is
the MSB of the data byte, is used to identify the frame as an address character or data if the address
detect function is enabled. The number of stop bits, which can be either one or two, is independent
of the data length and is only used for the transmitter. There is only one stop bit for the receiver.

9-bit Data Format
UART Transmitter
Data word lengths of either 8 or 9 bits can be selected by programming the BNO bit in the UCR1
register. When BNO bit is set, the word length will be set to 9 bits. In this case the 9th bit, which
is the MSB, needs to be stored in the TX8 bit in the UCR1 register. At the transmitter core lies
the Transmitter Shift Register, more commonly known as the TSR, whose data is obtained from
the transmit data register, which is known as the TXR_RXR register. The data to be transmitted
is loaded into this TXR_RXR register by the application program. The TSR register is not written
to with new data until the stop bit from the previous transmission has been sent out. As soon as
this stop bit has been transmitted, the TSR can then be loaded with new data from the TXR_RXR
register, if it is available. It should be noted that the TSR register, unlike many other registers, is not
directly mapped into the Data Memory area and as such is not available to the application program
for direct read/write operations. An actual transmission of data will normally be enabled when the
TXEN bit is set, but the data will not be transmitted until the TXR_RXR register has been loaded
with data and the baud rate generator has defined a shift clock source. However, the transmission
can also be initiated by first loading data into the TXR_RXR register, after which the TXEN bit can
be set. When a transmission of data begins, the TSR is normally empty, in which case a transfer to
the TXR_RXR register will result in an immediate transfer to the TSR. If during a transmission the
TXEN bit is cleared, the transmission will immediately cease and the transmitter will be reset. The
TX output pin will then return to the I/O or other pin-shared function.
Transmitting Data
When the UART is transmitting data, the data is shifted on the TX pin from the shift register, with
the least significant bit LSB first. In the transmit mode, the TXR_RXR register forms a buffer
between the internal bus and the transmitter shift register. It should be noted that if 9-bit data format
has been selected, then the MSB will be taken from the TX8 bit in the UCR1 register. The steps to
initiate a data transfer can be summarized as follows:
• Make the correct selection of the BNO, PRT, PREN and STOPS bits to define the required word
length, parity type and number of stop bits.
• Setup the BRG register to select the desired baud rate.
• Set the TXEN bit to ensure that the UART transmitter is enabled and the TX pin is used as a
UART transmitter pin.
• Access the USR register and write the data that is to be transmitted into the TXR_RXR register.
Note that this step will clear the TXIF bit.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
This sequence of events can now be repeated to send additional data. It should be noted that when
TXIF=0, data will be inhibited from being written to the TXR_RXR register. Clearing the TXIF flag
is always achieved using the following software sequence:
1. A USR register access
2. A TXR_RXR register write execution
The read-only TXIF flag is set by the UART hardware and if set indicates that the TXR_RXR
register is empty and that other data can now be written into the TXR_RXR register without
overwriting the previous data. If the TEIE bit is set, then the TXIF flag will generate an interrupt.
During a data transmission, a write instruction to the TXR_RXR register will place the data into the
TXR_RXR register, which will be copied to the shift register at the end of the present transmission.
When there is no data transmission in progress, a write instruction to the TXR_RXR register will
place the data directly into the shift register, resulting in the commencement of data transmission,
and the TXIF bit being immediately set. When a frame transmission is complete, which happens
after stop bits are sent or after the break frame, the TIDLE bit will be set. To clear the TIDLE bit the
following software sequence is used:
1. A USR register access
2. A TXR_RXR register write execution
Note that both the TXIF and TIDLE bits are cleared by the same software sequence.
Transmitting Break
If the TXBRK bit is set, then the break characters will be sent on the next transmission. Break
character transmission consists of a start bit, followed by 13xN "0" bits, where N=1, 2, etc. If a
break character is to be transmitted, then the TXBRK bit must be first set by the application program
and then cleared to generate the stop bits. Transmitting a break character will not generate a transmit
interrupt. Note that a break condition length is at least 13 bits long. If the TXBRK bit is continually
kept at a logic high level, then the transmitter circuitry will transmit continuous break characters.
After the application program has cleared the TXBRK bit, the transmitter will finish transmitting the
last break character and subsequently send out one or two stop bits. The automatic logic high at the
end of the last break character will ensure that the start bit of the next frame is recognized.
UART Receiver
The UART is capable of receiving word lengths of either 8 or 9 bits can be selected by programming
the BNO bit in the UCR1 register. When BNO bit is set, the word length will be set to 9 bits. In
this case the 9th bit, which is the MSB, will be stored in the RX8 bit in the UCR1 register. At the
receiver core lies the Receiver Shift Register more commonly known as the RSR. The data which
is received on the RX external input pin is sent to the data recovery block. The data recovery block
operating speed is 16 times that of the baud rate, while the main receive serial shifter operates at the
baud rate. After the RX pin is sampled for the stop bit, the received data in RSR is transferred to the
receive data register, if the register is empty. The data which is received on the external RX input pin
is sampled three times by a majority detect circuit to determine the logic level that has been placed
onto the RX pin. It should be noted that the RSR register, unlike many other registers, is not directly
mapped into the Data Memory area and as such is not available to the application program for direct
read/write operations.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
Receiving Data
When the UART receiver is receiving data, the data is serially shifted in on the external RX input
pin to the shift register, with the least significant bit LSB first. The TXR_RXR register is a two byte
deep FIFO data buffer, where two bytes can be held in the FIFO while the 3rd byte can continue to be
received. Note that the application program must ensure that the data is read from TXR_RXR before
the 3rd byte has been completely shifted in, otherwise the 3rd byte will be discarded and an overrun
error OERR will be subsequently indicated. The steps to initiate a data transfer can be summarized
as follows:
• Make the correct selection of the BNO, PRT and PREN bits to define the required word length
and parity type.
• Setup the BRG register to select the desired baud rate.
• Set the RXEN bit to ensure that the UART receiver is enabled and the RX pin is used as a UART
receiver pin.
At this point the receiver will be enabled which will begin to look for a start bit.
When a character is received, the following sequence of events will occur:
• The RXIFn bit in the UnSR register will be set when the TXR_RXRn register has data available.
There will be at most one more character available before an overrun error occurs.
• When the contents of the shift register have been transferred to the TXR_RXR register and if the
RIE bit is set, then an interrupt will be generated.
• If during reception, a frame error, noise error, parity error or an overrun error has been detected,
then the error flags can be set.
The RXIF bit can be cleared using the following software sequence:
1. A USR register access
2. A TXR_RXR register read execution
Receiving Break
Any break character received by the UART will be managed as a framing error. The receiver will
count and expect a certain number of bit times as specified by the values programmed into the BNO
plus one stop bit. If the break is much longer than 13 bit times, the reception will be considered
as complete after the number of bit times specified by BNO plus one stop bit. The RXIF bit is set,
FERR is set, zeros are loaded into the receive data register, interrupts are generated if appropriate
and the RIDLE bit is set. A break is regarded as a character that contains only zeros with the FERR
flag being set. If a long break signal has been detected, the receiver will regard it as a data frame
including a start bit, data bits and the invalid stop bit and the FERR flag will be set. The receiver
must wait for a valid stop bit before looking for the next start bit. The receiver will not make the
assumption that the break condition on the line is the next start bit. The break character will be
loaded into the buffer and no further data will be received until stop bits are received. It should be
noted that the RIDLE read only flag will go high when the stop bits have not yet been received. The
reception of a break character on the UART registers will result in the following:
• The framing error flag, FERR, will be set.
• The receive data register, TXR_RXR, will be cleared.
• The OERR, NF, PERR, RIDLE or RXIF flags will possibly be set.

Idle Status
When the receiver is reading data, which means it will be in between the detection of a start bit and
the reading of a stop bit, the receiver status flag in the USR register, otherwise known as the RIDLE
flag, will have a zero value. In between the reception of a stop bit and the detection of the next start
bit, the RIDLE flag will have a high value, which indicates the receiver is in an idle condition.
Receiver Interrupt
The read only receive interrupt flag, RXIF, in the USR register is set by an edge generated by the
receiver. An interrupt is generated if RIE=1, when a word is transferred from the Receive Shift
Register, RSR, to the Receive Data Register, TXR_RXR. An overrun error can also generate an
interrupt if RIE=1.
Managing Receiver Errors
Several types of reception errors can occur within the UART module, the following section describes
the various types and how they are managed by the UART.
Overrun Error – OERR
The TXR_RXR register is composed of a two byte deep FIFO data buffer, where two bytes can
be held in the FIFO register, while a 3th byte can continue to be received. Before the 3th byte has
been entirely shifted in, the data should be read from the TXR_RXR register. If this is not done, the
overrun error flag OERR will be consequently indicated.
In the event of an overrun error occurring, the following will happen:
• The OERR flag in the USR register will be set.
• The TXR_RXR contents will not be lost.
• The shift register will be overwritten.
• An interrupt will be generated if the RIE bit is set.
The OERR flag can be cleared by an access to the USR register followed by a read to the TXR_
RXR register.
Noise Error – NF
Over-sampling is used for data recovery to identify valid incoming data and noise. If noise is
detected within a frame, the following will occur:
• The read only noise flag, NF, in the USR register will be set on the rising edge of the RXIF bit.
• Data will be transferred from the shift register to the TXR_RXR register.
• No interrupt will be generated. However this bit rises at the same time as the RXIF bit which
itself generates an interrupt.
Note that the NF flag is reset by a USR register read operation followed by a TXR_RXR register
read operation.
Framing Error – FERR
The read only framing error flag, FERR, in the USR register, is set if a zero is detected instead of
stop bits. If two stop bits are selected, both stop bits must be high. Otherwise the FERR flag will
be set. The FERRn flag and the received data will be recorded in the USR and TXR_RXR registers
respectively, and the flag is cleared in any reset.

May 25, 2016
HT66F0176
A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
Parity Error – PERR
The read only parity error flag, PERR, in the USR register, is set if the parity of the received word
is incorrect. This error flag is only applicable if the parity function is enabled, PREN=1, and if the
parity type, odd or even, is selected. The read only PERR flag is buffered along with the received
data bytes. It is cleared on any reset, it should be noted that the flags, FERR and PERR, and the
corresponding word will be recorded in the USR and TXR_RXR registers respectively. The flags in
the USR register should first be read by application program before reading the data word.
UART Interrupt Structure
Several individual UART conditions can generate a UART interrupt. When these conditions exist,
a low pulse will be generated to get the attention of the microcontroller. These conditions are a
transmitter data register empty, transmitter idle, receiver data available, receiver overrun, address
detect and an RX pin wake-up. When any of these conditions are created, if its corresponding
interrupt control is enabled and the stack is not full, the program will jump to its corresponding
interrupt vector where it can be serviced before returning to the main program. Four of these
conditions have the corresponding USR register flags which will generate a UART interrupt if its
associated interrupt enable control bit in the UCR2 register is set. The two transmitter interrupt
conditions have their own corresponding enable control bits, while the two receiver interrupt
conditions have a shared enable control bit. These enable bits can be used to mask out individual
UART interrupt sources.
The address detect condition, which is also a UART interrupt source, does not have an associated
flag, but will generate a UART interrupt when an address detect condition occurs if its function
is enabled by setting the ADDEN bit in the UCR2 register. An RX pin wake-up, which is also a
UART interrupt source, does not have an associated flag, but will generate a UART interrupt if the
microcontroller is woken up from IDLE0 or SLEEP mode by a falling edge on the RX pin, if the
WAKE and RIE bits in the UCR2 register are set. Note that in the event of an RX wake-up interrupt
occurring, there will be a certain period of delay, commonly known as the System Start-up Time, for
the oscillator to restart and stabilize before the system resumes normal operation.
Note that the USR register flags are read only and cannot be cleared or set by the application
program, neither will they be cleared when the program jumps to the corresponding interrupt
servicing routine, as is the case for some of the other interrupts. The flags will be cleared
automatically when certain actions are taken by the UART, the details of which are given in the
UART register section. The overall UART interrupt can be disabled or enabled by the related
interrupt enable control bits in the interrupt control registers of the microcontroller to decide whether
the interrupt requested by the UART module is masked out or allowed.

Address Detect Mode
Setting the Address Detect function enable control bit, ADDEN, in the UCR2 register, enables this
special function. If this bit is set to 1, then an additional qualifier will be placed on the generation
of a Receiver Data Available interrupt, which is requested by the RXIF flag. If the ADDEN bit
is equal to 1, then when the data is available, an interrupt will only be generated, if the highest
received bit has a high value. Note that the related interrupt enable control bit and the EMI bit of the
microcontroller must also be enabled for correct interrupt generation. The highest address bit is the
9th bit if the bit BNO=1 or the 8th bit if the bit BNO=0. If the highest bit is high, then the received
word will be defined as an address rather than data. A Data Available interrupt will be generated
every time the last bit of the received word is set. If the ADDEN bit is equal to 0, then a Receive
Data Available interrupt will be generated each time the RXIF flag is set, irrespective of the data last
bit status. The address detection and parity functions are mutually exclusive functions. Therefore, if
the address detect function is enabled, then to ensure correct operation, the parity function should be
disabled by resetting the parity function enable bit PREN to zero.

UART Power Down and Wake-up
When the UART clock (fH) is off, the UART will cease to function, all clock sources to the
module are shutdown. If the UART clock (fH) is off while a transmission is still in progress, then
the transmission will be paused until the UART clock source derived from the microcontroller is
activated. In a similar way, if the MCU enters the Power Down Mode while receiving data, then
the reception of data will likewise be paused. When the MCU enters the Power Down Mode, note
that the USR, UCR1, UCR2, transmit and receive registers, as well as the BRG register will not be
affected. It is recommended to make sure first that the UART data transmission or reception has
been finished before the microcontroller enters the Power Down mode.
The UART function contains a receiver RX pin wake-up function, which is enabled or disabled
by the WAKE bit in the UCR2 register. If this bit, along with the UART enable bit, UARTEN, the
receiver enable bit, RXEN and the receiver interrupt bit, RIE, are all set when the UART clock (fH)
is off, then a falling edge on the RX pin will trigger an RX pin wake-up UART interrupt. Note that
as it takes certain system clock cycles after a wake-up, before normal microcontroller operation
resumes, any data received during this time on the RX pin will be ignored.
For a UART wake-up interrupt to occur, in addition to the bits for the wake-up being set, the global
interrupt enable bit, EMI, and the UART interrupt enable bit, UARTE, must be set. If the EMI and
UARTE bits are not set then only a wake up event will occur and no interrupt will be generated.
Note also that as it takes certain system clock cycles after a wake-up before normal microcontroller
resumes, the UART interrupt will not be generated until after this time has elapsed.

Low Voltage Detector – LVD
Each device has a Low Voltage Detector function, also known as LVD. This enabled the device to
monitor the power supply voltage, VDD, and provide a warning signal should it fall below a certain
level. This function may be especially useful in battery applications where the supply voltage will
gradually reduce as the battery ages, as it allows an early warning battery low signal to be generated.
The Low Voltage Detector also has the capability of generating an interrupt signal.
LVD Register
The Low Voltage Detector function is controlled using a single register with the name LVDC. Three
bits in this register, VLVD2~VLVD0, are used to select one of eight fixed voltages below which
a low voltage condition will be determined. A low voltage condition is indicated when the LVDO
bit is set. If the LVDO bit is low, this indicates that the VDD voltage is above the preset low voltage
value. The LVDEN bit is used to control the overall on/off function of the low voltage detector.
Setting the bit high will enable the low voltage detector. Clearing the bit to zero will switch off the
internal low voltage detector circuits. As the low voltage detector will consume a certain amount of
power, it may be desirable to switch off the circuit when not in use, an important consideration in
power sensitive battery powered applications.

LVD Operation
The Low Voltage Detector function operates by comparing the power supply voltage, VDD, with a
pre-specified voltage level stored in the LVDC register. This has a range of between 2.0V and 4.0V.
When the power supply voltage, VDD, falls below this pre-determined value, the LVDO bit will be
set high indicating a low power supply voltage condition. The Low Voltage Detector function is
supplied by a reference voltage which will be automatically enabled. When the device is powered
down the low voltage detector will remain active if the LVDEN bit is high. After enabling the Low
Voltage Detector, a time delay tLVDS should be allowed for the circuitry to stabilise before reading the
LVDO bit. Note also that as the VDD voltage may rise and fall rather slowly, at the voltage nears that
of VLVD, there may be multiple bit LVDO transitions.

LVD Operation
The Low Voltage Detector also has its own interrupt which is contained within one of the Multifunction interrupts, providing an alternative means of low voltage detection, in addition to polling
the LVDO bit. The interrupt will only be generated after a delay of tLVD after the LVDO bit has been
set high by a low voltage condition. When the device is powered down the Low Voltage Detector
will remain active if the LVDEN bit is high. In this case, the LVF interrupt request flag will be set,
causing an interrupt to be generated if VDD falls below the preset LVD voltage. This will cause the
device to wake-up from the SLEEP or IDLE Mode, however if the Low Voltage Detector wake up
function is not required then the LVF flag should be first set high before the device enters the SLEEP
or IDLE Mode.

Interrupts
Interrupts are an important part of any microcontroller system. When an external event or an
internal function such as a Timer Module or an A/D converter requires microcontroller attention,
their corresponding interrupt will enforce a temporary suspension of the main program allowing the
microcontroller to direct attention to their respective needs. The device contains several external
interrupt and internal interrupts functions. The external interrupts are generated by the action of
the external INT0 and INT1 pins, while the internal interrupts are generated by various internal
functions such as the TMs, Time Base, LVD, EEPROM, SIM, UART and the A/D converter, etc.
Interrupt Registers
Overall interrupt control, which basically means the setting of request flags when certain
microcontroller conditions occur and the setting of interrupt enable bits by the application program,
is controlled by a series of registers, located in the Special Purpose Data Memory, as shown in the
accompanying table. The number of registers depends upon the device chosen but fall into three
categories. The first is the INTC0~INTC2 registers which setup the primary interrupts, the second
is the MFI0~MFI2 registers which setup the Multi-function interrupts. Finally there is an INTEG
register to setup the external interrupt trigger edge type.
Each register contains a number of enable bits to enable or disable individual interrupts as well
as interrupt flags to indicate the presence of an interrupt request. The naming convention of these
follows a specific pattern. First is listed an abbreviated interrupt type, then the (optional) number of
that interrupt followed by either an "E" for enable/disable bit or "F" for request flag.

Interrupt Operation
When the conditions for an interrupt event occur, such as a TM Comparator P or Comparator A or A/D
conversion completion, etc, the relevant interrupt request flag will be set. Whether the request flag
actually generates a program jump to the relevant interrupt vector is determined by the condition of
the interrupt enable bit. If the enable bit is set high then the program will jump to its relevant vector;
if the enable bit is zero then although the interrupt request flag is set an actual interrupt will not be
generated and the program will not jump to the relevant interrupt vector. The global interrupt enable
bit, if cleared to zero, will disable all interrupts.
When an interrupt is generated, the Program Counter, which stores the address of the next instruction
to be executed, will be transferred onto the stack. The Program Counter will then be loaded with a
new address which will be the value of the corresponding interrupt vector. The microcontroller will
then fetch its next instruction from this interrupt vector. The instruction at this vector will usually
be a JMP which will jump to another section of program which is known as the interrupt service
routine. Here is located the code to control the appropriate interrupt. The interrupt service routine
must be terminated with a RETI, which retrieves the original Program Counter address from the
stack and allows the microcontroller to continue with normal execution at the point where the
interrupt occurred.
The various interrupt enable bits, together with their associated request flags, are shown in the
accompanying diagrams with their order of priority. Some interrupt sources have their own
individual vector while others share the same multi-function interrupt vector. Once an interrupt
subroutine is serviced, all other interrupts will be blocked, as the global interrupt enable bit, EMI
bit will be cleared automatically. This will prevent any further interrupt nesting from occurring.
However, if other interrupt requests occur during this interval, although the interrupt will not be
immediately serviced, the request flag will still be recorded.

HT66F0176
A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
If an interrupt requires immediate servicing while the program is already in another interrupt service
routine, the EMI bit should be set after entering the routine to allow interrupt nesting. If the stack
is full, the interrupt request will not be acknowledged, even if the related interrupt is enabled, until
the Stack Pointer is decremented. If immediate service is desired, the stack must be prevented from
becoming full. In case of simultaneous requests, the accompanying diagram shows the priority that
is applied. All of the interrupt request flags when set will wake-up the device if it is in SLEEP or
IDLE Mode, however to prevent a wake-up from occurring the corresponding flag should be set
before the device is in SLEEP or IDLE Mode.

A/D 8-Bit Flash MCU with EEPROM
External Interrupt
The external interrupts are controlled by signal transitions on the pins INT0~INT1. An external
interrupt request will take place when the external interrupt request flags, INT0F~INT1F, are set,
which will occur when a transition, whose type is chosen by the edge select bits, appears on the
external interrupt pins. To allow the program to branch to its respective interrupt vector address,
the global interrupt enable bit, EMI, and respective external interrupt enable bit, INT0E~INT1E,
must first be set. Additionally the correct interrupt edge type must be selected using the INTEG
register to enable the external interrupt function and to choose the trigger edge type. As the external
interrupt pins are pin-shared with I/O pins, they can only be configured as external interrupt pins if
their external interrupt enable bit in the corresponding interrupt register has been set and the external
interrupt pin is selected by the corresponding pin-shared function selection bits. The pin must also
be setup as an input by setting the corresponding bit in the port control register. When the interrupt
is enabled, the stack is not full and the correct transition type appears on the external interrupt pin,
a subroutine call to the external interrupt vector, will take place. When the interrupt is serviced, the
external interrupt request flags, INT0F~INT1F, will be automatically reset and the EMI bit will be
automatically cleared to disable other interrupts. Note that any pull-high resistor selections on the
external interrupt pins will remain valid even if the pin is used as an external interrupt input.
The INTEG register is used to select the type of active edge that will trigger the external interrupt.
A choice of either rising or falling or both edge types can be chosen to trigger an external interrupt.
Note that the INTEG register can also be used to disable the external interrupt function.
Multi-function Interrupt
Within the device there are up to three Multi-function interrupts. Unlike the other independent
interrupts, these interrupts have no independent source, but rather are formed from other existing
interrupt sources, namely the TM interrupts, LVD interrupt and EEPROM write operation interrupt.
A Multi-function interrupt request will take place when any of the Multi-function interrupt request
flags MFnF are set. The Multi-function interrupt flags will be set when any of their included
functions generate an interrupt request flag. To allow the program to branch to its respective interrupt
vector address, when the Multi-function interrupt is enabled and the stack is not full, and either one
of the interrupts contained within each of Multi-function interrupt occurs, a subroutine call to one of
the Multi-function interrupt vectors will take place. When the interrupt is serviced, the related MultiFunction request flag will be automatically reset and the EMI bit will be automatically cleared to
disable other interrupts.
However, it must be noted that, although the Multi-function Interrupt request flags will be
automatically reset when the interrupt is serviced, the request flags from the original source of
the Multi-function interrupts will not be automatically reset and must be manually reset by the
application program.
A/D Converter Interrupt
The A/D Converter Interrupt is controlled by the termination of an A/D conversion process. An A/D
Converter Interrupt request will take place when the A/D Converter Interrupt request flag, ADF, is
set, which occurs when the A/D conversion process finishes. To allow the program to branch to its
respective interrupt vector address, the global interrupt enable bit, EMI, and A/D Interrupt enable bit,
ADE, must first be set. When the interrupt is enabled, the stack is not full and the A/D conversion
process has ended, a subroutine call to the A/D Converter Interrupt vector, will take place. When the
interrupt is serviced, the A/D Converter Interrupt flag, ADF, will be automatically cleared. The EMI
bit will also be automatically cleared to disable other interrupts.

Time Base Interrupt
The function of the Time Base Interrupts is to provide regular time signal in the form of an internal
interrupt. They are controlled by the overflow signals from their respective timer functions. When
these happens their respective interrupt request flags, TB0F or TB1F will be set. To allow the
program to branch to their respective interrupt vector addresses, the global interrupt enable bit, EMI
and Time Base enable bits, TB0E or TB1E, must first be set. When the interrupt is enabled, the stack
is not full and the Time Base overflows, a subroutine call to their respective vector locations will
take place. When the interrupt is serviced, the respective interrupt request flag, TB0F or TB1F, will
be automatically reset and the EMI bit will be cleared to disable other interrupts. The purpose of
the Time Base Interrupt is to provide an interrupt signal at fixed time periods. Their clock sources
originate from the internal clock source fTB. This fTB input clock passes through a divider, the
division ratio of which is selected by programming the appropriate bits in the TBC register to obtain
longer interrupt periods whose value ranges. The clock source that generates fTB, which in turn
controls the Time Base interrupt period, can originate from several different sources, as shown in the
System Operating Mode section.

Serial Interface Module Interrupt
The Serial Interface Module Interrupt, also known as the SIM interrupt, is controlled by the SPI or
I2C data transfer. A SIM Interrupt request will take place when the SIM Interrupt request flag, SIMF,
is set, which occurs when a byte of data has been received or transmitted by the SIM interface,
an I2C slave address match or I2C bus time-out occurrence. To allow the program to branch to its
respective interrupt vector address, the global interrupt enable bit, EMI and the Serial Interface
Interrupt enable bit, SIME, must first be set. When the interrupt is enabled, the stack is not full and
any of the above described situations occurs, a subroutine call to the respective SIM Interrupt vector,
will take place. When the Serial Interface Interrupt is serviced, the EMI bit will be automatically
cleared to disable other interrupts. The SIMF flag will also be automatically cleared.
UART Transfer Interrupt
The UART Transfer Interrupt is controlled by several UART transfer conditions. When one of these
conditions occurs, an interrupt pulse will be generated to get the attention of the microcontroller.
These conditions are a transmitter data register empty, transmitter idle, receiver data available,
receiver overrun, address detect and an RX pin wake-up. To allow the program to branch to its
respective interrupt vector address, the global interrupt enable bit, EMI, and UART Interrupt enable
bit, UARTE, must first be set. When the interrupt is enabled, the stack is not full and any of the
conditions described above occurs, a subroutine call to the UART Interrupt vector, will take place.
When the interrupt is serviced, the UART Interrupt flag, UARTF, will be automatically cleared. The
EMI bit will also be automatically cleared to disable other interrupts. However, the USR register
flags will only be cleared when certain actions are taken by the UART, the details of which are given
in the UART chapter.
LVD Interrupt
The Low Voltage Detector Interrupt is contained within the Multi-function Interrupt. An LVD
Interrupt request will take place when the LVD Interrupt request flag, LVF, is set, which occurs
when the Low Voltage Detector function detects a low power supply voltage. To allow the program
to branch to its respective interrupt vector address, the global interrupt enable bit, EMI, Low Voltage
Interrupt enable bit, LVE, and associated Multi-function interrupt enable bit, must first be set. When
the interrupt is enabled, the stack is not full and a low voltage condition occurs, a subroutine call to
the Multi-function Interrupt vector, will take place. When the Low Voltage Interrupt is serviced, the
EMI bit will be automatically cleared to disable other interrupts. However, only the Multi-function
interrupt request flag will be also automatically cleared. As the LVF flag will not be automatically
cleared, it has to be cleared by the application program.
EEPROM Interrupt
The EEPROM Write Interrupt is contained within the Multi-function Interrupt. An EEPROM
Write Interrupt request will take place when the EEPROM Write Interrupt request flag, DEF, is set,
which occurs when an EEPROM Write cycle ends. To allow the program to branch to its respective
interrupt vector address, the global interrupt enable bit, EMI, EEPROM Write Interrupt enable bit,
DEE, and associated Multi-function interrupt enable bit must first be set. When the interrupt is
enabled, the stack is not full and an EEPROM Write cycle ends, a subroutine call to the respective
Multi-function Interrupt vector will take place. When the EEPROM Write Interrupt is serviced, the
EMI bit will be automatically cleared to disable other interrupts. However, only the Multi-function
interrupt request flag will be automatically cleared. As the DEF flag will not be automatically
cleared, it has to be cleared by the application program.

TM Interrupt
The Periodic TMs have two interrupts, one comes from the comparator A match situation and the
other comes from the comparator P match situation. All of the TM interrupts are contained within
the Multi-function Interrupts. There are two interrupt request flags and two enable control bits. A
TM interrupt request will take place when any of the TM request flags are set, a situation which
occurs when a TM comparator P or A match situation happens.
To allow the program to branch to its respective interrupt vector address, the global interrupt enable
bit, EMI, respective TM Interrupt enable bit, and relevant Multi-function Interrupt enable bit, MFnE,
must first be set. When the interrupt is enabled, the stack is not full and a TM comparator match
situation occurs, a subroutine call to the relevant Multi-function Interrupt vector locations, will take
place. When the TM interrupt is serviced, the EMI bit will be automatically cleared to disable other
interrupts. However, only the related MFnF flag will be automatically cleared. As the TM interrupt
request flags will not be automatically cleared, they have to be cleared by the application program.
Interrupt Wake-up Function
Each of the interrupt functions has the capability of waking up the microcontroller when in the
SLEEP or IDLE Mode. A wake-up is generated when an interrupt request flag changes from low to
high and is independent of whether the interrupt is enabled or not. Therefore, even though the device
is in the SLEEP or IDLE Mode and its system oscillator stopped, situations such as external edge
transitions on the external interrupt pins, a low power supply voltage or comparator input change
may cause their respective interrupt flag to be set high and consequently generate an interrupt. Care
must therefore be taken if spurious wake-up situations are to be avoided. If an interrupt wake-up
function is to be disabled then the corresponding interrupt request flag should be set high before the
device enters the SLEEP or IDLE Mode. The interrupt enable bits have no effect on the interrupt
wake-up function.

Programming Considerations
By disabling the relevant interrupt enable bits, a requested interrupt can be prevented from being
serviced, however, once an interrupt request flag is set, it will remain in this condition in the
interrupt register until the corresponding interrupt is serviced or until the request flag is cleared by
the application program.
Where a certain interrupt is contained within a Multi-function interrupt, then when the interrupt
service routine is executed, as only the Multi-function interrupt request flags, MFnF, will be
automatically cleared, the individual request flag for the function needs to be cleared by the
application program.
It is recommended that programs do not use the "CALL" instruction within the interrupt service
subroutine. Interrupts often occur in an unpredictable manner or need to be serviced immediately.
If only one stack is left and the interrupt is not well controlled, the original control sequence will be
damaged once a CALL subroutine is executed in the interrupt subroutine.
Every interrupt has the capability of waking up the microcontroller when it is in the SLEEP or IDLE
Mode, the wake up being generated when the interrupt request flag changes from low to high. If it is
required to prevent a certain interrupt from waking up the microcontroller then its respective request
flag should be first set high before enter SLEEP or IDLE Mode.
As only the Program Counter is pushed onto the stack, then when the interrupt is serviced, if the
contents of the accumulator, status register or other registers are altered by the interrupt service
program, their contents should be saved to the memory at the beginning of the interrupt service
routine.
To return from an interrupt subroutine, either a RET or RETI instruction may be executed. The RETI
instruction in addition to executing a return to the main program also automatically sets the EMI
bit high to allow further interrupts. The RET instruction however only executes a return to the main
program leaving the EMI bit in its present zero state and therefore disabling the execution of further
interrupts.

Instruction Set
Introduction
Central to the successful operation of any microcontroller is its instruction set, which is a set of
program instruction codes that directs the microcontroller to perform certain operations. In the case
of Holtek microcontroller, a comprehensive and flexible set of over 60 instructions is provided to
enable programmers to implement their application with the minimum of programming overheads.
For easier understanding of the various instruction codes, they have been subdivided into several
functional groupings.
Instruction Timing
Most instructions are implemented within one instruction cycle. The exceptions to this are branch,
call, or table read instructions where two instruction cycles are required. One instruction cycle is
equal to 4 system clock cycles, therefore in the case of an 8MHz system oscillator, most instructions
would be implemented within 0.5μs and branch or call instructions would be implemented within
1μs. Although instructions which require one more cycle to implement are generally limited to
the JMP, CALL, RET, RETI and table read instructions, it is important to realize that any other
instructions which involve manipulation of the Program Counter Low register or PCL will also take
one more cycle to implement. As instructions which change the contents of the PCL will imply a
direct jump to that new address, one more cycle will be required. Examples of such instructions
would be "CLR PCL" or "MOV PCL, A". For the case of skip instructions, it must be noted that if
the result of the comparison involves a skip operation then this will also take one more cycle, if no
skip is involved then only one cycle is required.
Moving and Transferring Data
The transfer of data within the microcontroller program is one of the most frequently used
operations. Making use of three kinds of MOV instructions, data can be transferred from registers to
the Accumulator and vice-versa as well as being able to move specific immediate data directly into
the Accumulator. One of the most important data transfer applications is to receive data from the
input ports and transfer data to the output ports.
Arithmetic Operations
The ability to perform certain arithmetic operations and data manipulation is a necessary feature of
most microcontroller applications. Within the Holtek microcontroller instruction set are a range of
add and subtract instruction mnemonics to enable the necessary arithmetic to be carried out. Care
must be taken to ensure correct handling of carry and borrow data when results exceed 255 for
addition and less than 0 for subtraction. The increment and decrement instructions INC, INCA, DEC
and DECA provide a simple means of increasing or decreasing by a value of one of the values in the
destination specified.

Logical and Rotate Operation
The standard logical operations such as AND, OR, XOR and CPL all have their own instruction
within the Holtek microcontroller instruction set. As with the case of most instructions involving
data manipulation, data must pass through the Accumulator which may involve additional
programming steps. In all logical data operations, the zero flag may be set if the result of the
operation is zero. Another form of logical data manipulation comes from the rotate instructions such
as RR, RL, RRC and RLC which provide a simple means of rotating one bit right or left. Different
rotate instructions exist depending on program requirements. Rotate instructions are useful for serial
port programming applications where data can be rotated from an internal register into the Carry
bit from where it can be examined and the necessary serial bit set high or low. Another application
which rotate data operations are used is to implement multiplication and division calculations.
Branches and Control Transfer
Program branching takes the form of either jumps to specified locations using the JMP instruction
or to a subroutine using the CALL instruction. They differ in the sense that in the case of a
subroutine call, the program must return to the instruction immediately when the subroutine has
been carried out. This is done by placing a return instruction "RET" in the subroutine which will
cause the program to jump back to the address right after the CALL instruction. In the case of a JMP
instruction, the program simply jumps to the desired location. There is no requirement to jump back
to the original jumping off point as in the case of the CALL instruction. One special and extremely
useful set of branch instructions are the conditional branches. Here a decision is first made regarding
the condition of a certain data memory or individual bits. Depending upon the conditions, the
program will continue with the next instruction or skip over it and jump to the following instruction.
These instructions are the key to decision making and branching within the program perhaps
determined by the condition of certain input switches or by the condition of internal data bits.
Bit Operations
The ability to provide single bit operations on Data Memory is an extremely flexible feature of all
Holtek microcontrollers. This feature is especially useful for output port bit programming where
individual bits or port pins can be directly set high or low using either the "SET [m].i" or "CLR [m].
i" instructions respectively. The feature removes the need for programmers to first read the 8-bit
output port, manipulate the input data to ensure that other bits are not changed and then output the
port with the correct new data. This read-modify-write process is taken care of automatically when
these bit operation instructions are used.
Table Read Operations
Data storage is normally implemented by using registers. However, when working with large
amounts of fixed data, the volume involved often makes it inconvenient to store the fixed data in
the Data Memory. To overcome this problem, Holtek microcontrollers allow an area of Program
Memory to be set as a table where data can be directly stored. A set of easy to use instructions
provides the means by which this fixed data can be referenced and retrieved from the Program
Memory.
Other Operations
In addition to the above functional instructions, a range of other instructions also exist such as
the "HALT" instruction for Power-down operations and instructions to control the operation of
the Watchdog Timer for reliable program operations under extreme electric or electromagnetic
environments. For their relevant operations, refer to the functional related sections.
