System Overview
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices are fully integrated mixed-signal system-on-a-chip MCUs. Highlighted
features are listed below. Refer to Table 2.1 for specific product feature selection and part ordering
numbers.
Ultra low power consumption in active and sleep modes.
High-speed pipelined 8051-compatible microcontroller core (up to 25 MIPS)
In-system, full-speed, non-intrusive debug interface (on-chip)
10-bit 300 ksps or 12-bit 75 ksps single-ended ADC with analog multiplexer
6-bit programmable current reference (resolution can be increased with PWM)
Precision programmable 24.5 MHz internal oscillator with spread spectrum technology.
8 kB, 4 kB, or 2 kB of on-chip Flash memory
512 bytes of on-chip RAM
SMBus/I2C, Enhanced UART, and Enhanced SPI serial interfaces implemented in hardware
Four general-purpose 16-bit timers
Programmable counter/timer array (PCA) with three capture/compare modules and watchdog timer
function
On-chip power-on reset, VDD monitor, and temperature sensor
One on-chip voltage comparator
Up to 14 Capacitive Touch Inputs
Up to 17 Port I/O
With on-chip power-on reset, VDD monitor, watchdog timer, and clock oscillator, the C8051F99xC8051F98x devices are truly stand-alone system-on-a-chip solutions. The Flash memory can be
reprogrammed even in-circuit, providing non-volatile data storage, and also allowing field upgrades of the
8051 firmware. User software has complete control of all peripherals, and may individually shut down any
or all peripherals for power savings.
The on-chip Silicon Labs 2-Wire (C2) Development Interface allows non-intrusive (uses no on-chip
resources), full speed, in-circuit debugging using the production MCU installed in the final application. This
debug logic supports inspection and modification of memory and registers, setting breakpoints, single
stepping, run and halt commands. All analog and digital peripherals are fully functional while debugging
using C2. The two C2 interface pins can be shared with user functions, allowing in-system debugging
without occupying package pins.
Each device is specified for 1.8 to 3.6 V operation over the industrial temperature range (–40 to +85 °C).
The Port I/O and RST pins are powered from the supply voltage. The C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices are
available in 20-pin or 24-pin QFN or 24-pin QSOP packages. All package options are lead-free and RoHS
compliant. See Table 2.1 for ordering information. Block diagrams are included in Figure 1.1 through
Figure 1.9.

1.1.
CIP-51™ Microcontroller Core
1.1.1. Fully 8051 Compatible
The C8051F99x-C8051F98x family utilizes Silicon Labs' proprietary CIP-51 microcontroller core. The CIP51 is fully compatible with the MCS-51™ instruction set; standard 803x/805x assemblers and compilers
can be used to develop software. The CIP-51 core offers all the peripherals included with a standard 8052.
1.1.2. Improved Throughput
The CIP-51 employs a pipelined architecture that greatly increases its instruction throughput over the
standard 8051 architecture. In a standard 8051, all instructions except for MUL and DIV take 12 or 24
system clock cycles to execute with a maximum system clock of 12-to-24 MHz. By contrast, the CIP-51
core executes 70% of its instructions in one or two system clock cycles, with only four instructions taking
more than four system clock cycles.
The CIP-51 has a total of 109 instructions. The table below shows the total number of instructions that
require each execution time.

With the CIP-51's maximum system clock at 25 MHz, it has a peak throughput of 25 MIPS.
1.1.3. Additional Features
The C8051F99x-C8051F98x SoC family includes several key enhancements to the CIP-51 core and
peripherals to improve performance and ease of use in end applications.
The extended interrupt handler provides multiple interrupt sources into the CIP-51 allowing numerous
analog and digital peripherals to interrupt the controller. An interrupt driven system requires less
intervention by the MCU, giving it more effective throughput. The extra interrupt sources are very useful
when building multi-tasking, real-time systems.
Eight reset sources are available: power-on reset circuitry (POR), an on-chip VDD monitor (forces reset
when power supply voltage drops below safe levels), a Watchdog Timer, a Missing Clock Detector,
SmaRTClock oscillator fail or alarm, a voltage level detection from Comparator0, a forced software reset,
an external reset pin, and an illegal Flash access protection circuit. Each reset source except for the POR,
Reset Input Pin, or Flash error may be disabled by the user in software. The WDT may be permanently
disabled in software after a power-on reset during MCU initialization.
The internal oscillator is factory calibrated to 24.5 MHz and is accurate to ±2% over the full temperature
and supply range. The internal oscillator period can also be adjusted by user firmware. An additional
20 MHz low power oscillator is also available which facilitates low-power operation. An external oscillator
drive circuit is included, allowing an external crystal, ceramic resonator, capacitor, RC, or CMOS clock
source to generate the system clock. If desired, the system clock source may be switched on-the-fly
between both internal and external oscillator circuits. An external oscillator can also be extremely useful in
low power applications, allowing the MCU to run from a slow (power saving) source, while periodically
switching to the fast (up to 25 MHz) internal oscillator as needed.

Port Input/Output
Digital and analog resources are available through 16 or 17 I/O pins. Port pins are organized as three bytewide ports. Port pins P0.0–P1.7 can be defined as digital or analog I/O. Digital I/O pins can be assigned to
one of the internal digital resources or used as general purpose I/O (GPIO). Analog I/O pins are used by
the internal analog resources. P2.7 can be used as GPIO and is shared with the C2 Interface Data signal
(C2D). See Section “27. C2 Interface” on page 319 for more details.
The designer has complete control over which digital and analog functions are assigned to individual Port
pins, limited only by the number of physical I/O pins. This resource assignment flexibility is achieved
through the use of a Priority Crossbar Decoder. See Section “21.3. Priority Crossbar Decoder” on
page 219 for more information on the Crossbar.
All Port I/Os can tolerate voltages up to the supply rail when used as digital inputs or open-drain outputs.
For Port I/Os configured as push-pull outputs, current is sourced from the VDD supply. Port I/Os used for
analog functions can operate up to the VDD supply voltage. See Section “21.1. Port I/O Modes of
Operation” on page 216 for more information on Port I/O operating modes and the electrical specifications
chapter for detailed electrical specifications.

Serial Ports
The C8051F99x-C8051F98x Family includes an SMBus/I2C interface, a full-duplex UART with enhanced
baud rate configuration, and an Enhanced SPI interface. Each of the serial buses is fully implemented in
hardware and makes extensive use of the CIP-51's interrupts, thus requiring very little CPU intervention.
1.4.
Programmable Counter Array
An on-chip programmable counter/timer array (PCA) is included in addition to the four 16-bit general
purpose counter/timers. The PCA consists of a dedicated 16-bit counter/timer time base with three
programmable capture/compare modules. The PCA clock is derived from one of seven sources: the
system clock divided by 12, the system clock divided by 4, Timer 0 overflows, an External Clock Input
(ECI), the system clock, the external oscillator clock source divided by 8, or the SmaRTClock divided by 8.
Each capture/compare module can be configured to operate in a variety of modes: edge-triggered capture,
software timer, high-speed output, pulse width modulator (8, 9, 10, 11, or 16-bit), or frequency output.
Additionally, Capture/Compare Module 2 offers watchdog timer (WDT) capabilities. Following a system
reset, Module 2 is configured and enabled in WDT mode. The PCA Capture/Compare Module I/O and
External Clock Input may be routed to Port I/O via the Digital Crossbar.

SAR ADC with 16-bit Auto-Averaging Accumulator and Autonomous Low
Power Burst Mode
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices have a 300 ksps, 10-bit or 75 ksps 12-bit successive-approximationregister (SAR) ADC with integrated track-and-hold and programmable window detector. ADC0 also has an
autonomous low power Burst Mode which can automatically enable ADC0, capture and accumulate
samples, then place ADC0 in a low power shutdown mode without CPU intervention. It also has a 16-bit
accumulator that can automatically average the ADC results, providing an effective 11, 12, or 13 bit ADC
result without any additional CPU intervention.
The ADC can sample the voltage at select GPIO pins (see Figure 1.17) and has an on-chip attenuator that
allows it to measure voltages up to twice the voltage reference. Additional ADC inputs include an on-chip
temperature sensor, the VDD supply voltage, and the internal digital supply voltage.

Programmable Current Reference (IREF0)
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include an on-chip programmable current reference (source or sink) with
two output current settings: low power mode and high current mode. The maximum current output in low
power mode is 63 µA (1 µA steps) and the maximum current output in high current mode is 504 µA (8 µA
steps).
1.7.
Comparator
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include an on-chip programmable voltage comparator: Comparator 0
(CPT0) which is shown in Figure 1.18.
The Comparator offers programmable response time and hysteresis, an analog input multiplexer, and two
outputs that are optionally available at the Port pins: a synchronous “latched” output (CP0), or an
asynchronous “raw” output (CP0A). The asynchronous CP0A signal is available even when the system
clock is not active. This allows the Comparator to operate and generate an output when the device is in
some low power modes.
The comparator inputs may be connected to Port I/O pins or to other internal signals. Port pins may also be
used to directly sense capacitive touch switches.

General
1.

3.
4.
All dimensions shown are in millimeters (mm) unless otherwise noted.
Dimensioning and Tolerancing is per the ANSI Y14.5M-1994 specification.
This Land Pattern Design is based on IPC-SM-782 guidelines.
All dimensions shown are at Maximum Material Condition (MMC). Least Material
Condition (LMC) is calculated based on a Fabrication Allowance of 0.05 mm.
Solder Mask Design
1. All metal pads are to be non-solder mask defined (NSMD). Clearance between the
solder mask and the metal pad is to be 60 µm minimum, all the way around the pad.
Stencil Design
1. A stainless steel, laser-cut and electro-polished stencil with trapezoidal walls should
be used to assure good solder paste release.
2. The stencil thickness should be 0.125 mm (5 mils).
3. The ratio of stencil aperture to land pad size should be 1:1 for all perimeter pads.
4. A 1.45 x 1.45 mm square aperture should be used for the center pad. This provides
approximately 70% solder paste coverage on the pad, which is optimum to assure
correct component stand-off.
Card Assembly
1. A No-Clean, Type-3 solder paste is recommended.
2. The recommended card reflow profile is per the JEDEC/IPC J-STD-020 specification
for Small Body Components.

Notes:
1. Based on device characterization data; Not production tested.
2. SYSCLK must be at least 32 kHz to enable debugging.
3. Digital Supply Current depends upon the particular code being executed. The values in this table are obtained
with the CPU executing an “sjmp $” loop, which is the compiled form of a while(1) loop in C. One iteration
requires 3 CPU clock cycles, and the Flash memory is read on each cycle. The supply current will vary slightly
based on the physical location of the sjmp instruction and the number of Flash address lines that toggle as a
result. In the worst case, current can increase by up to 30% if the sjmp loop straddles a 64-byte Flash address
boundary (e.g., 0x007F to 0x0080). Real-world code with larger loops and longer linear sequences will have
few transitions across the 64-byte address boundaries.
4. Includes oscillator and regulator supply current.
5. IDD can be estimated for frequencies < 14 MHz by simply multiplying the frequency of interest by the
frequency sensitivity number for that range, then adding an offset of 84 µA. When using these numbers to
estimate IDD for > 14 MHz, the estimate should be the current at 25 MHz minus the difference in current
indicated by the frequency sensitivity number. For example: VDD = 3.0 V; F = 20 MHz, IDD = 3.6 mA –
(25 MHz – 20 MHz) x 0.088 mA/MHz = 3.16 mA assuming the same oscillator setting.
6. Idle IDD can be estimated by taking the current at 25 MHz minus the difference in current indicated by the
frequency sensitivity number. For example: VDD = 3.0 V; F = 5 MHz, Idle IDD = 1.75 mA – (25 MHz –
5 MHz) x 0.067 mA/MHz = 0.41 mA.

SAR ADC with 16-bit Auto-Averaging Accumulator and
Autonomous Low Power Burst Mode
The ADC0 on C8051F980/6 and C8051F990/6 devices is a 300 ksps, 10-bit or 75 ksps, 12-bit successiveapproximation-register (SAR) ADC with integrated track-and-hold and programmable window detector.
ADC0 also has an autonomous low power Burst Mode which can automatically enable ADC0, capture and
accumulate samples, then place ADC0 in a low power shutdown mode without CPU intervention. It also
has a 16-bit accumulator that can automatically oversample and average the ADC results. See Section 5.4
for more details on using the ADC in 12-bit mode. C8051F982 and C8051F988 devices only support the
10-bit mode.
The ADC is fully configurable under software control via Special Function Registers. The ADC0 operates in
Single-ended mode and may be configured to measure various different signals using the analog
multiplexer described in “5.7. ADC0 Analog Multiplexer” on page 83. The voltage reference for the ADC is
selected as described in “5.9. Voltage and Ground Reference Options” on page 88.

5.1.
Output Code Formatting
The registers ADC0H and ADC0L contain the high and low bytes of the output conversion code from the
ADC at the completion of each conversion. Data can be right-justified or left-justified, depending on the
setting of the AD0SJST[2:0]. When the repeat count is set to 1, conversion codes are represented as 10bit unsigned integers. Inputs are measured from 0 to VREF x 1023/1024. Example codes are shown below
for both right-justified and left-justified data. Unused bits in the ADC0H and ADC0L registers are set to 0.

When the repeat count is greater than 1, the output conversion code represents the accumulated result of
the conversions performed and is updated after the last conversion in the series is finished. Sets of 4, 8,
16, 32, or 64 consecutive samples can be accumulated and represented in unsigned integer format. The
repeat count can be selected using the AD0RPT bits in the ADC0AC register. When a repeat count is
higher than 1, the ADC output must be right-justified (AD0SJST = 0xx); unused bits in the ADC0H and
ADC0L registers are set to 0. The example below shows the right-justified result for various input voltages
and repeat counts. Notice that accumulating 2n samples is equivalent to left-shifting by n bit positions when
all samples returned from the ADC have the same value.

The AD0SJST bits can be used to format the contents of the 16-bit accumulator. The accumulated result
can be shifted right by 1, 2, or 3 bit positions. Based on the principles of oversampling and averaging, the
effective ADC resolution increases by 1 bit each time the oversampling rate is increased by a factor of 4.
The example below shows how to increase the effective ADC resolution by 1, 2, and 3 bits to obtain an
effective ADC resolution of 11-bit, 12-bit, or 13-bit respectively without CPU intervention.

Modes of Operation
ADC0 has a maximum conversion speed of 300 ksps in 10-bit mode. The ADC0 conversion clock
(SARCLK) is a divided version of the system clock when burst mode is disabled (BURSTEN = 0), or a
divided version of the low power oscillator when burst mode is enabled (BURSEN = 1). The clock divide
value is determined by the AD0SC bits in the ADC0CF register.
5.2.1. Starting a Conversion
A conversion can be initiated in one of five ways, depending on the programmed states of the ADC0 Start
of Conversion Mode bits (AD0CM2–0) in register ADC0CN. Conversions may be initiated by one of the
following:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Writing a 1 to the AD0BUSY bit of register ADC0CN
A Timer 0 overflow (i.e., timed continuous conversions)
A Timer 2 overflow
A Timer 3 overflow
A rising edge on the CNVSTR input signal (pin P0.6)
Writing a 1 to AD0BUSY provides software control of ADC0 whereby conversions are performed "ondemand". During conversion, the AD0BUSY bit is set to logic 1 and reset to logic 0 when the conversion is
complete. The falling edge of AD0BUSY triggers an interrupt (when enabled) and sets the ADC0 interrupt
flag (AD0INT). When polling for ADC conversion completions, the ADC0 interrupt flag (AD0INT) should be
used. Converted data is available in the ADC0 data registers, ADC0H:ADC0L, when bit AD0INT is logic 1.
When Timer 2 or Timer 3 overflows are used as the conversion source, Low Byte overflows are used if
Timer 2/3 is in 8-bit mode; High byte overflows are used if Timer 2/3 is in 16-bit mode. See “25. Timers” on
page 278 for timer configuration.
Important Note About Using CNVSTR: The CNVSTR input pin also functions as Port pin P0.6. When the
CNVSTR input is used as the ADC0 conversion source, Port pin P0.6 should be skipped by the Digital
Crossbar. To configure the Crossbar to skip P0.6, set to 1 Bit 6 in register P0SKIP. See “21. Port
Input/Output” on page 215 for details on Port I/O configuration.

5.2.2. Tracking Modes
Each ADC0 conversion must be preceded by a minimum tracking time in order for the converted result to
be accurate. The minimum tracking time is given in Table 4.10. The AD0TM bit in register ADC0CN
controls the ADC0 track-and-hold mode. In its default state when Burst Mode is disabled, the ADC0 input
is continuously tracked, except when a conversion is in progress. When the AD0TM bit is logic 1, ADC0
operates in low-power track-and-hold mode. In this mode, each conversion is preceded by a tracking
period of 3 SAR clocks (after the start-of-conversion signal). When the CNVSTR signal is used to initiate
conversions in low-power tracking mode, ADC0 tracks only when CNVSTR is low; conversion begins on
the rising edge of CNVSTR (see Figure 5.2). Tracking can also be disabled (shutdown) when the device is
in low power standby or sleep modes. Low-power track-and-hold mode is also useful when AMUX settings
are frequently changed, due to the settling time requirements described in “5.2.4. Settling Time
Requirements” on page 71.

5.2.3. Burst Mode
Burst Mode is a power saving feature that allows ADC0 to remain in a low power state between
conversions. When Burst Mode is enabled, ADC0 wakes from a low power state, accumulates 1, 4, 8, 16,
32, or 64 using an internal Burst Mode clock (approximately 20 MHz), then re-enters a low power state.
Since the Burst Mode clock is independent of the system clock, ADC0 can perform multiple conversions
then enter a low power state within a single system clock cycle, even if the system clock is slow (e.g.
32.768 kHz), or suspended.
Burst Mode is enabled by setting BURSTEN to logic 1. When in Burst Mode, AD0EN controls the ADC0
idle power state (i.e. the state ADC0 enters when not tracking or performing conversions). If AD0EN is set
to logic 0, ADC0 is powered down after each burst. If AD0EN is set to logic 1, ADC0 remains enabled after
each burst. On each convert start signal, ADC0 is awakened from its Idle Power State. If ADC0 is powered
down, it will automatically power up and wait the programmable Power-Up Time controlled by the
AD0PWR bits. Otherwise, ADC0 will start tracking and converting immediately. Figure 5.3 shows an
example of Burst Mode Operation with a slow system clock and a repeat count of 4.
When Burst Mode is enabled, a single convert start will initiate a number of conversions equal to the repeat
count. When Burst Mode is disabled, a convert start is required to initiate each conversion. In both modes,
the ADC0 End of Conversion Interrupt Flag (AD0INT) will be set after “repeat count” conversions have
been accumulated. Similarly, the Window Comparator will not compare the result to the greater-than and
less-than registers until “repeat count” conversions have been accumulated.
In Burst Mode, tracking is determined by the settings in AD0PWR and AD0TK. The default settings for
these registers will work in most applications without modification; however, settling time requirements may
need adjustment in some applications. Refer to “5.2.4. Settling Time Requirements” on page 71 for more
details.
Notes:
Setting AD0TM to 1 will insert an additional 3 SAR clocks of tracking before each conversion,
regardless of the settings of AD0PWR and AD0TK.
When using Burst Mode, care must be taken to issue a convert start signal no faster than once every
four SYSCLK periods. This includes external convert start signals.

5.2.4. Settling Time Requirements
A minimum amount of tracking time is required before each conversion can be performed, to allow the
sampling capacitor voltage to settle. This tracking time is determined by the AMUX0 resistance, the ADC0
sampling capacitance, any external source resistance, and the accuracy required for the conversion. Note
that in low-power tracking mode, three SAR clocks are used for tracking at the start of every conversion.
For many applications, these three SAR clocks will meet the minimum tracking time requirements, and
higher values for the external source impedance will increase the required tracking time.
Figure 5.4 shows the equivalent ADC0 input circuit. The required ADC0 settling time for a given settling
accuracy (SA) may be approximated by Equation 5.1. When measuring the Temperature Sensor output or
VDD with respect to GND, RTOTAL reduces to RMUX. See Table 4.10 for ADC0 minimum settling time
requirements as well as the mux impedance and sampling capacitor values.

5.2.5. Gain Setting
The ADC has gain settings of 1x and 0.5x. In 1x mode, the full scale reading of the ADC is determined
directly by VREF. In 0.5x mode, the full-scale reading of the ADC occurs when the input voltage is VREF x 2.
The 0.5x gain setting can be useful to obtain a higher input Voltage range when using a small VREF
voltage, or to measure input voltages that are between VREF and VDD. Gain settings for the ADC are
controlled by the AMP0GN bit in register ADC0CF.
5.3.
8-Bit Mode
Setting the ADC08BE bit in register ADC0CF to 1 will put the ADC in 8-bit mode.In 8-bit mode, only the
8 MSBs of data are converted, allowing the conversion to be completed in two fewer SAR clock cycles
than a 10-bit conversion. This can result in an overall lower power consumption since the system can
spend more time in a low power mode. The two LSBs of a conversion are always 00 in this mode, and the
ADC0L register will always read back 0x00.
5.4.
12-Bit Mode (C8051F980/6 and C8051F990/6 devices only)
C8051F980/6 and C8051F990/6 devices have an enhanced SAR converter that provides 12-bit resolution
while retaining the 10- and 8-bit operating modes of the other devices in the family. When configured for
12-bit conversions, the ADC performs four 10-bit conversions using four different reference voltages and
combines the results into a single 12-bit value. Unlike simple averaging techniques, this method provides
true 12-bit resolution of AC or DC input signals without depending on noise to provide dithering. The
converter also employs a hardware Dynamic Element Matching algorithm that reconfigures the largest
elements of the internal DAC for each of the four 10-bit conversions to cancel any matching errors,
enabling the converter to achieve 12-bit linearity performance to go along with its 12-bit resolution. For
best performance, the Low Power Oscillator should be selected as the system clock source while taking
12-bit ADC measurements.
The 12-bit mode is enabled by setting the AD012BE bit (ADC0AC.7) to logic 1 and configuring Burst Mode
for four conversions as described in Section 5.2.3. The conversion can be initiated using any of the
methods described in Section 5.2.1, and the 12-bit result will appear in the ADC0H and ADC0L registers.
Since the 12-bit result is formed from a combination of four 10-bit results, the maximum output value is
4 x (1023) = 4092, rather than the max value of (2^12 – 1) = 4095 that is produced by a traditional 12-bit
converter. To further increase resolution, the burst mode repeat value may be configured to any multiple of
four conversions. For example, if a repeat value of 16 is selected, the ADC0 output will be a 14-bit number
(sum of four 12-bit numbers) with 13 effective bits of resolution.
5.5.
Low Power Mode
The SAR converter provides a low power mode that allows a significant reduction in operating current
when operating at low SAR clock frequencies. Low power mode is enabled by setting the AD0LPM bit
(ADC0PWR.7) to 1. In general, low power mode is recommended when operating with SAR conversion
clock frequency at 4 MHz or less. See the Electrical Characteristics chapter for details on power
consumption and the maximum clock frequencies allowed in each mode. Setting the Low Power Mode bit
reduces the bias currents in both the SAR converter and in the High-Speed Voltage Reference.

Programmable Window Detector
The ADC Programmable Window Detector continuously compares the ADC0 output registers to userprogrammed limits, and notifies the system when a desired condition is detected. This is especially
effective in an interrupt-driven system, saving code space and CPU bandwidth while delivering faster
system response times. The window detector interrupt flag (AD0WINT in register ADC0CN) can also be
used in polled mode. The ADC0 Greater-Than (ADC0GTH, ADC0GTL) and Less-Than (ADC0LTH,
ADC0LTL) registers hold the comparison values. The window detector flag can be programmed to indicate
when measured data is inside or outside of the user-programmed limits, depending on the contents of the
ADC0 Less-Than and ADC0 Greater-Than registers.

Important Note About ADC0 Input Configuration: Port pins selected as ADC0 inputs should be
configured as analog inputs, and should be skipped by the Digital Crossbar. To configure a Port pin for
analog input, set to 0 the corresponding bit in register PnMDIN and disable the digital driver (PnMDOUT =
0 and Port Latch = 1). To force the Crossbar to skip a Port pin, set to 1 the corresponding bit in register
PnSKIP. See Section “21. Port Input/Output” on page 215 for more Port I/O configuration details.

Temperature Sensor
An on-chip temperature sensor is included on the C8051F99x-C8051F98x which can be directly accessed
via the ADC multiplexer in single-ended configuration. To use the ADC to measure the temperature sensor,
the ADC mux channel should select the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor transfer function is
shown in Figure 5.8. The output voltage (VTEMP) is the positive ADC input when the ADC multiplexer is set
correctly. The TEMPE bit in register REF0CN enables/disables the temperature sensor, as described in
SFR Definition 5.15. While disabled, the temperature sensor defaults to a high impedance state and any
ADC measurements performed on the sensor will result in meaningless data. Refer to Table 4.10 for the
slope and offset parameters of the temperature sensor.
VTEMP = Slope x (TempC - 25) + Offset

5.8.1. Calibration
The uncalibrated temperature sensor output is extremely linear and suitable for relative temperature measurements (see Table 4.11 for linearity specifications). For absolute temperature measurements, offset
and/or gain calibration is recommended. Typically a 1-point (offset) calibration includes the following steps:
1. Control/measure the ambient temperature (this temperature must be known).
2. Power the device, and delay for a few seconds to allow for self-heating.
3. Perform an ADC conversion with the temperature sensor selected as the positive input and
GND selected as the negative input.
4. Calculate the offset characteristics, and store this value in non-volatile memory for use with
subsequent temperature sensor measurements.
Figure 5.9 shows the typical temperature sensor error assuming a 1-point calibration at 25 °C. Parameters that affect ADC measurement, in particular the voltage reference value, will also affect temperature measurement.
Error (degrees C)
A single-point offset measurement of the temperature sensor is performed on each device during production test. The measurement is performed at 25 °C ±5 °C, using the ADC with the internal high speed reference buffer selected as the Voltage Reference. The direct ADC result of the measurement is stored in the
SFR registers TOFFH and TOFFL, shown in SFR Definition 5.13 and SFR Definition 5.14.

Voltage and Ground Reference Options
The voltage reference MUX is configurable to use an externally connected voltage reference, the internal
voltage reference, or one of two power supply voltages (see Figure 5.10). The ground reference MUX
allows the ground reference for ADC0 to be selected between the ground pin (GND) or a port pin
dedicated to analog ground (P0.1/AGND).
The voltage and ground reference options are configured using the REF0CN SFR described on page 90.
Electrical specifications are can be found in the Electrical Specifications Chapter.
Important Note About the VREF and AGND Inputs: Port pins are used as the external VREF and AGND
inputs. When using an external voltage reference or the internal precision reference, P0.0/VREF should be
configured as an analog input and skipped by the Digital Crossbar. When using AGND as the ground
reference to ADC0, P0.1/AGND should be configured as an analog input and skipped by the Digital
Crossbar. Refer to Section “21. Port Input/Output” on page 215 for complete Port I/O configuration details.
The external reference voltage must be within the range 0 ≤ VREF ≤ VDD and the external ground
reference must be at the same DC voltage potential as GND.

5.10. External Voltage Reference
To use an external voltage reference, REFSL[1:0] should be set to 00. Bypass capacitors should be added
as recommended by the manufacturer of the external voltage reference. If the manufacturer does not provide recommendations, a 4.7 µF in parallel with a 0.1 µF capacitor is recommended.
5.11. Internal Voltage Reference
For applications requiring the maximum number of port I/O pins, or very short VREF turn-on time, the
1.65 V high-speed reference will be the best internal reference option to choose. The high speed internal
reference is selected by setting REFSL[1:0] to 11. When selected, the high speed internal reference will be
automatically enabled/disabled on an as-needed basis by ADC0.
For applications with a non-varying power supply voltage, using the power supply as the voltage reference
can provide ADC0 with added dynamic range at the cost of reduced power supply noise rejection. To use
the 1.8 to 3.6 V power supply voltage (VDD) or the 1.8 V regulated digital supply voltage as the reference
source, REFSL[1:0] should be set to 01 or 10, respectively.
5.12. Analog Ground Reference
To prevent ground noise generated by switching digital logic from affecting sensitive analog
measurements, a separate analog ground reference option is available. When enabled, the ground
reference for ADC0 during both the tracking/sampling and the conversion periods is taken from the
P0.1/AGND pin. Any external sensors sampled by ADC0 should be referenced to the P0.1/AGND pin. This
pin should be connected to the ground terminal of any external sensors sampled by ADC0. If an external
voltage reference is used, the P0.1/AGND pin should be connected to the ground of the external reference
and its associated decoupling capacitor. The separate analog ground reference option is enabled by
setting REFGND to 1. Note that when sampling the internal temperature sensor, the internal chip ground is
always used for the sampling operation, regardless of the setting of the REFGND bit. Similarly, whenever
the internal 1.65 V high-speed reference is selected, the internal chip ground is always used during the
conversion period, regardless of the setting of the REFGND bit.
5.13. Temperature Sensor Enable
The TEMPE bit in register REF0CN enables/disables the temperature sensor. While disabled, the
temperature sensor defaults to a high impedance state and any ADC0 measurements performed on the
sensor result in meaningless data. See Section “5.8. Temperature Sensor” on page 85 for details on
temperature sensor characteristics when it is enabled.

Programmable Current Reference (IREF0)
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include an on-chip programmable current reference (source or sink) with
two output current settings: Low Power Mode and High Current Mode. The maximum current output in Low
Power Mode is 63 µA (1 µA steps) and the maximum current output in High Current Mode is 504 µA (8 µA
steps).
The current source/sink is controlled though the IREF0CN special function register. It is enabled by setting
the desired output current to a non-zero value. It is disabled by writing 0x00 to IREF0CN. The port I/O pin
associated with ISRC0 should be configured as an analog input and skipped in the Crossbar. See Section
“21. Port Input/Output” on page 215 for more details.

PWM Enhanced Mode
The precision of the current reference can be increased by fine tuning the IREF0 output using a PWM
signal generated by the PCA. This mode allows the IREF0DAT bits to perform a course adjustment on the
IREF0 output. Any available PCA channel can perform a fine adjustment on the IREF0 output. When
enabled (PWMEN = 1), the CEX signal selected using the PWMSS bit field is internally routed to IREF0 to
control the on time of a current source having the weight of 2 LSBs. With the two least significant bits of
IREF0DAT set to 00b, applying a 100% duty cycle on the CEX signal will be equivalent to setting the two
LSBs of IREF0DAT to 10b. PWM enhanced mode is enabled and setup using the IREF0CF register.

Comparator
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include an on-chip programmable voltage comparator: Comparator 0
(CPT0) shown in Figure 7.1.
The Comparator offers programmable response time and hysteresis, an analog input multiplexer, and two
outputs that are optionally available at the Port pins: a digital synchronous “latched” output (CP0), or a
digital asynchronous “raw” output (CP0A). The asynchronous CP0A signal is available even when the
system clock is not active. This allows the Comparator to operate and generate an output when the device
is in some low power modes.
7.1.
Comparator Inputs
Each Comparator performs an analog comparison of the voltage levels at its positive (CP0+) and negative
(CP0-) input. The analog input multiplexers are completely under software control and configured using
SFR registers. See Section “7.6. Comparator0 Analog Multiplexer” on page 98 for details on how to select
and configure Comparator inputs.
Important Note About Comparator Inputs: The Port pins selected as Comparator inputs should be
configured as analog inputs and skipped by the Crossbar. See the Port I/O chapter for more details on how
to configure Port I/O pins as Analog Inputs. The Comparator may also be used to compare the logic level
of digital signals, however, Port I/O pins configured as digital inputs must be driven to a valid logic state
(HIGH or LOW) to avoid increased power consumption.

Comparator Outputs
When a comparator is enabled, its output is a logic 1 if the voltage at the positive input is higher than the
voltage at the negative input. When disabled, the comparator output is a logic 0. The comparator output is
synchronized with the system clock as shown in Figure 7.2. The synchronous “latched” output (CP0) can
be polled in software (CP0OUT bit), used as an interrupt source, or routed to a Port pin (configured for
digital I/O) through the Crossbar.
The asynchronous “raw” comparator output (CP0A) is used by the low power mode wake-up logic and
reset decision logic. See the Power Options chapter and the Reset Sources chapter for more details on
how the asynchronous comparator outputs are used to make wake-up and reset decisions. The
asynchronous comparator output can also be routed directly to a Port pin through the Crossbar, and is
available for use outside the device even if the system clock is stopped.
When using a Comparator as an interrupt source, Comparator interrupts can be generated on rising-edge
and/or falling-edge comparator output transitions. Two independent interrupt flags (CP0RIF and CP0FIF)
allow software to determine which edge caused the Comparator interrupt. The comparator rising-edge and
falling-edge interrupt flags are set by hardware when a corresponding edge is detected regardless of the
interrupt enable state. Once set, these bits remain set until cleared by software.
The rising-edge and falling-edge interrupts can be individually enabled using the CP0RIE and CP0FIE
interrupt enable bits in the CPT0MD register. In order for the CP0RIF and/or CP0FIF interrupt flags to
generate an interrupt request to the CPU, the Comparator must be enabled as an interrupt source and
global interrupts must be enabled. See the Interrupt Handler chapter for additional information.
7.3.
Comparator Response Time
Comparator response time may be configured in software via the CPT0MD register described on
“CPT0MD: Comparator 0 Mode Selection” on page 97. Four response time settings are available: Mode 0
(Fastest Response Time), Mode 1, Mode 2, and Mode 3 (Lowest Power). Selecting a longer response time
reduces the Comparator active supply current. The Comparator also has a low power shutdown state,
which is entered any time the comparator is disabled. Comparator rising edge and falling edge response
times are typically not equal. See Table 4.14 on page 63 for complete comparator timing and supply
current specifications.
7.4.
Comparator Hysteresis
The Comparator features software-programmable hysteresis that can be used to stabilize the comparator
output while a transition is occurring on the input. Using the CPT0CN register, the user can program both
the amount of hysteresis voltage (referred to the input voltage) and the positive and negative-going
symmetry of this hysteresis around the threshold voltage (i.e., the comparator negative input).
Figure 7.2 shows that when positive hysteresis is enabled, the comparator output does not transition from
logic 0 to logic 1 until the comparator positive input voltage has exceeded the threshold voltage by an
amount equal to the programmed hysteresis. It also shows that when negative hysteresis is enabled, the
comparator output does not transition from logic 1 to logic 0 until the comparator positive input voltage has
fallen below the threshold voltage by an amount equal to the programmed hysteresis.
The amount of positive hysteresis is determined by the settings of the CP0HYP bits in the CPT0CN
register and the amount of negative hysteresis voltage is determined by the settings of the CP0HYN bits in
the same register. Settings of 20, 10, 5, or 0 mV can be programmed for both positive and negative
hysteresis. See Section “Table 4.14. Comparator Electrical Characteristics” on page 63 for complete
comparator hysteresis specifications.

Comparator Register Descriptions
The SFRs used to enable and configure the comparator are described in the following register
descriptions. The comparator must be enabled by setting the CP0EN bit to logic 1 before it can be used.
From an enabled state, a comparator can be disabled and placed in a low power state by clearing the
CP0EN bit to logic 0.
Important Note About Comparator Settings: False rising and falling edges can be detected by the
Comparator while powering on or if changes are made to the hysteresis or response time control bits.
Therefore, it is recommended that the rising-edge and falling-edge flags be explicitly cleared to logic 0 a
short time after the comparator is enabled or its mode bits have been changed. The Comparator Power Up
Time is specified in Section “Table 4.14. Comparator Electrical Characteristics” on page 63.

Comparator0 Analog Multiplexer
Comparator0 on C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices has an analog input multiplexer to connect Port I/O pins
and internal signals the comparator inputs; CP0+/CP0- are the positive and negative input multiplexers for
Comparator0.
The comparator input multiplexers directly support capacitive touch switches. When the Capacitive Touch
Sense Compare input is selected on the positive or negative multiplexer, any Port I/O pin connected to the
other multiplexer can be directly connected to a capacitive touch switch with no additional external
components. The Capacitive Touch Sense Compare provides the appropriate reference level for detecting
when the capacitive touch switches have charged or discharged through the on-chip Rsense resistor. The
Comparator outputs can be routed to Timer2 or Timer3 for capturing sense capacitor’s charge and
discharge time. See Section “25. Timers” on page 278 for details.
Any of the following may be selected as comparator inputs: Port I/O pins, Capacitive Touch Sense
Compare, VDD Supply Voltage, Regulated Digital Supply Voltage (Output of VREG0) or ground. The
Comparator’s supply voltage divided by 2 is also available as an input; the resistors used to divide the
voltage only draw current when this setting is selected. The Comparator input multiplexers are configured
using the CPT0MX register described in SFR Definition 7.3.

Capacitive Sense (CS0)
The Capacitive Sense subsystem uses a capacitance-to-digital circuit to determine the capacitance on a
port pin. The module can take measurements from different port pins using the module’s analog
multiplexer. The module is enabled only when the CS0EN bit (CS0CN) is set to 1. Otherwise the module is
in a low-power shutdown state. The module can be configured to take measurements on one port pin or a
group of port pins, using auto-scan. A selectable gain circuit allows the designer to adjust the maximum
allowable capacitance. An accumulator is also included, which can be configured to average multiple
conversions on an input channel. Interrupts can be generated when CS0 completes a conversion or when
the measured value crosses a threshold defined in CS0THH:L.

8.1.
Configuring Port Pins as Capacitive Sense Inputs
In order for a port pin to be measured by CS0, that port pin must be configured as an analog input (see “21.
Port Input/Output” ). Configuring the input multiplexer to a port pin not configured as an analog input will
cause the capacitive sense comparator to output incorrect measurements.
8.2.
Initializing the Capacitive Sensing Peripheral
The following procedure is recommended for properly initializing the CS0 peripheral:
1. Enable the CS0 block (CS0EN = 1) before performing any other initializations.
2. Initialize the Start of Conversion Mode Select bits (CS0CM[2:0]) to the desired mode.
3. Continue initializing all remaining CS0 registers.
8.3.
Capacitive Sense Start-Of-Conversion Sources
A capacitive sense conversion can be initiated in one of eight ways, depending on the programmed state
of the CS0 start of conversion bits (CS0CF6:4). Conversions may be initiated by one of the following:
1. Writing a 1 to the CS0BUSY bit of register CS0CN
2. Timer 0 overflow
3. Timer 2 overflow
4. Timer 1 overflow
5. Timer 3 overflow
6. Convert continuously
7. Convert continuously with auto-scan enabled
8. Perform a single scan of all enabled channels
Conversions can be configured to be initiated continuously through one of two methods. CS0 can be
configured to convert at a single channel continuously or it can be configured to convert continuously with
auto-scan enabled. When configured to convert continuously, conversions will begin after the CS0BUSY
bit in CS0CF has been set. An interrupt will be generated if CS0 conversion complete interrupts are
enabled by setting the ECSCPT bit (EIE2.0).
Single Scan Mode allows all channels enabled in the CS0SCAN0 and CS0SCAN1 registers to be scanned
in a single pass. An end of scan interrupt can be enabled to trigger once all selected channels have been
converted. See Section “8.9. Automatic Scanning (Method 2—CS0SMEN = 1)” on page 104 for more
details about this mode.
The CS0 module uses a method of successive approximation to determine the value of an external
capacitance. The number of bits the CS0 module converts is adjustable using the CS0CR bits in register
CS0MD2. Conversions are 13 bits long by default, but they can be adjusted to 12, 13, 14, or 16 bits
depending on the needs of the application. Unconverted bits will be set to 0. Shorter conversion lengths
produce faster conversion rates, and vice-versa. Applications can take advantage of faster conversion
rates when the unconverted bits fall below the noise floor.
Note: CS0 conversion complete interrupt behavior depends on the settings of the CS0 accumulator. If CS0 is
configured to accumulate multiple conversions on an input channel, a CS0 conversion complete interrupt will
be generated only after the last conversion completes.

8.4.
CS0 Multiple Channel Enable
CS0 has the capability of measuring the total capacitance of multiple channels using a single conversion.
When the multiple channel feature is enabled (CS0MCEN = 1), Channels selected by CS0SCAN0/1 are
internally shorted together and the combined node is selected as the CS0 input. This mode can be used to
detect a capacitance change on multiple channels using a single conversion and is useful for implementing
“wake-on-multiple channels”.

The gain of the CS0 circuit can be adjusted in integer increments from 1x to 8x (8x is the default). High
gain gives the best sensitivity and resolution for small capacitors, such as those typically implemented as
touch-sensitive PCB features. To measure larger capacitance values, the gain should be lowered
accordingly. The bits CS0CG[2:0] in register CS0MD set the gain value.
8.6.
Wake from Suspend
CS0 has the capability of waking the device from a low power suspend mode upon detection of a “touch”
using the digital comparator. When the CS0SMEN is set to 1, CS0 may also wake up the device after an
end of scan event when CS0CM[2:0] are set to 101b or after each conversion when CS0CM[2:0] are set to
110b or 111b. If the accumulate feature is enabled, the device wakes up after all samples have been
accumulated. The CS0WOI bit in the CS0MD1 register can be used to configure desire wake from
suspend behavior.
8.7.
Using CS0 in Applications that Utilize Sleep Mode
To achieve maximum power efficiency, CS0 should be enabled only when taking a conversion and disabled at all other times. CS0 must be disabled by software prior to entering Sleep Mode.

Automatic Scanning (Method 1—CS0SMEN = 0)
CS0 can be configured to automatically scan a sequence of contiguous CS0 input channels by configuring
and enabling auto-scan. Using auto-scan with the CS0 comparator interrupt enabled allows a system to
detect a change in measured capacitance without requiring any additional dedicated MCU resources.
Auto-scan is enabled by setting the CS0 start-of-conversion bits (CS0CF6:4) to 111b. After enabling autoscan, the starting and ending channels should be set to appropriate values in CS0SS and CS0SE,
respectively. Writing to CS0SS when auto-scan is enabled will cause the value written to CS0SS to be
copied into CS0MX. After being enabled, writing a 1 to CS0BUSY will start auto-scan conversions. When
auto-scan completes the number of conversions defined in the CS0 accumulator bits (CS0CF1:0), autoscan configures CS0MX to the next sequential port pin configured as an analog input and begins a
conversion on that channel. All other pins between CS0SS and CS0SE which are set as analog inputs are
grounded during the conversion. This scan sequence continues until CS0MX reaches the ending input
channel value defined in CS0SE. After one or more conversions have been taken at this channel, autoscan configures CS0MX back to the starting input channel. For an example system configured to use autoscan, please see Figure “8.2 Auto-Scan Example” on page 103.
Note: Auto-scan attempts one conversion on a CS0MX channel regardless of whether that channel’s port pin has
been configured as an analog input. Auto-scan will also complete the current rotation when the device is halted
for debugging.

If auto-scan is enabled when the device enters suspend mode, auto-scan will remain enabled and running.
This feature allows the device to wake from suspend through CS0 greater-than comparator event on any

Automatic Scanning (Method 2—CS0SMEN = 1)
When CS0SMEN is enabled, CS0 uses an alternate autoscanning method that uses the contents of
CS0SCAN0 and CS0SCAN1 to determine which channels to include in the scan. This maximizes flexibility
for application development and can result in more power efficient scanning. The following procedure can
be used to configure the device for Automatic Scanning with CS0SMEN = 1.
1. Set the CS0SMEN bit to 1.
2. Select the start of conversion mode (CS0CM[2:0]) if not already configured. Mode 101b is the mode of
choice for most systems.
3. Configure the CS0SCAN0 and CS0SCAN1 registers to enable channels in the scan.
4. Configure the CS0THH:CS0THL digital comparator threshold and polarity.
5. Enable wake from suspend on end of scan (CS0WOI = 1) if this functionality is desired.
6. Set CS0SS to point to the first channel in the scan. Note: CS0SS uses the same bit mapping as the
CS0MX register.
7. Issue a start of conversion (BUSY = 1).
8. Enable the CS0 Wakeup Source and place the device in Suspend mode (optional).
If using Mode 101b, scanning will stop once a “touch” has been detected using the digital comparator. The
CS0MX register will contain the channel mux value of the channel that caused the interrupt. Setting the
busy bit when servicing the interrupt will cause the scan to continue where it left off. Scanning will also stop
after all channels have been sampled and no “touches” have been detected. If the CS0WOI bit is set, a
wake from suspend event will be generated. Note: When automatic scanning is enabled, the contents of
the CS0MX register are only valid when the digital comparator interrupt is set and BUSY = 0.
8.10. CS0 Comparator
The CS0 comparator compares the latest capacitive sense conversion result with the value stored in
CS0THH:CS0THL. If the result is less than or equal to the stored value, the CS0CMPF bit(CS0CN:0) is set
to 0. If the result is greater than the stored value, CS0CMPF is set to 1.
If the CS0 conversion accumulator is configured to accumulate multiple conversions, a comparison will not
be made until the last conversion has been accumulated.
An interrupt will be generated if CS0 greater-than comparator interrupts are enabled by setting the ECSDC
bit (EIE2.5) when the comparator sets CS0CMPF to 1.
If auto-scan is running when the comparator sets the CS0CMPF bit, no further auto-scan initiated
conversions will start until firmware sets CS0BUSY to 1.
A CS0 greater-than comparator event can wake a device from suspend mode. This feature is useful in
systems configured to continuously sample one or more capacitive sense channels. The device will remain
in the low-power suspend state until the captured value of one of the scanned channels causes a CS0
greater-than comparator event to occur. It is not necessary to have CS0 comparator interrupts enabled in
order to wake a device from suspend with a greater-than event.
For a summary of behavior with different CS0 comparator, auto-scan, and auto accumulator settings,
please see Table 8.1.

8.11. CS0 Conversion Accumulator
CS0 can be configured to accumulate multiple conversions on an input channel. The number of samples to
be accumulated is configured using the CS0ACU2:0 bits (CS0CF2:0). The accumulator can accumulate 1,
4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 samples. After the defined number of samples have been accumulated, the result is
divided by either 1, 4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 (depending on the CS0ACU[2:0] setting) and copied to the
CS0DH:CS0DL SFRs.

8.12. CS0 Pin Monitor
The CS0 module provides accurate conversions in all operating modes of the CPU, peripherals and I/O
ports. Pin monitoring circuits are provided to improve interference immunity from high-current output pin
switching. The CS0 Pin Monitor register (CS0PM, SFR Definition 8.14) controls the operation of these pin
monitors.
Conversions in the CS0 module are immune to any change on digital inputs and immune to most output
switching. Even high-speed serial data transmission will not affect CS0 operation as long as the output
load is limited. Output changes that switch large loads such as LEDs and heavily-loaded communications
lines can affect conversion accuracy. For this reason, the CS0 module includes pin monitoring circuits that
will, if enabled, automatically adjust conversion timing if necessary to eliminate any effect from high-current
output pin switching.
The pin monitor enable bit should be set for any output signal that is expected to drive a large load.
Example: The SMBus in a system is heavily loaded with multiple slaves and a long PCB route. Set the
SMBus pin monitor enable, SMBPM = 1.
Example: Timer2 controls an LED on Port 1, pin 3 to provide variable dimming. Set the Port SFR write
monitor enable, PIOPM = 1.
Example: The SPI bus is used to communicate to a nearby host. The pin monitor is not needed because
the output is not heavily loaded, SPIPM remains = 0, the default reset state.
Pin monitors should not be enabled unless they are required. The pin monitor works by repeating any
portion of a conversion that may have been corrupted by a change on an output pin. Setting pin monitor
enables bits will slow CS0 conversions.
The frequency of CS0 retry operations can be limited by setting the CSPMMD bits. In the default (reset)
state, all converter retry requests will be performed. This is the recommended setting for all applications.
The number of retries per conversion can be limited to either two or four retries by changing CSPMMD.
Limiting the number of retries per conversion ensures that even in circumstances where extremely
frequent high-power output switching occurs, conversions will be completed, though there may be some
loss of accuracy due to switching noise.
Activity of the pin monitor circuit can be detected by reading the Pin Monitor Event bit, CS0PME, in register
CS0CN. This bit will be set if any CS0 converter retries have occurred. It remains set until cleared by
software or a device reset.
8.13. Adjusting CS0 For Special Situations
There are several configuration options in the CS0 module designed to modify the operation of the circuit
and address special situations. In particular, any circuit with more than 500 ohms of series impedance
between the sensor and the device pin may require adjustments for optimal performance. Typical applications which may require adjustments include:
Touch panel sensors fabricated using a resistive conductor such as indium-tin-oxide (ITO).
Circuits using a high-value series resistor to isolate the sensor element for high ESD protection.
Most systems will require no fine tuning, and the default settings for CS0DT, CS0DR, CS0IA, CS0RP
and CS0LP should be used.

CS0 Ramp Selection.
These bits are used to compensate CS0 conversions for circuits requiring slower
ramp times. For most touch-sensitive switches, the default (fastest) value is sufficient. See the discussion in Section 8.13 for more information.
00: Ramp time is less than 1.5 µs.
01: Ramp time is between 1.5 µs and 3 µs.
10: Ramp time is between 3 µs and 6 µs.
11: Ramp time is greater than 6 µs.

CS0LP[2:0]
CS0 Low Pass Filter Selection.
These bits set the internal corner frequency of the CS0 low-pass filter. Higher values of CS0LP result in a lower internal corner frequency.
For most touch-sensitive switches, the default setting of 000b should be used. If
the CS0RP bits are adjusted from their default value, the CS0LP bits should normally be set to 001b. Settings higher than 001b will result in attenuated readings
from the CS0 module and should be used only under special circumstances. See
the discussion in Section 8.13 for more information.

CIP-51 Microcontroller
The MCU system controller core is the CIP-51 microcontroller. The CIP-51 is fully compatible with the
MCS-51™ instruction set; standard 803x/805x assemblers and compilers can be used to develop
software. The MCU family has a superset of all the peripherals included with a standard 8051. The CIP-51
also includes on-chip debug hardware (see description in Section 27) and interfaces directly with the
analog and digital subsystems providing a complete data acquisition or control-system solution in a single
integrated circuit.
The CIP-51 Microcontroller core implements the standard 8051 organization and peripherals as well as
additional custom peripherals and functions to extend its capability (see Figure 9.1 for a block diagram).
The CIP-51 includes the following features:
- Fully Compatible with MCS-51 Instruction
Set
- 25 MIPS Peak Throughput with 25 MHz
Clock
- 0 to 25 MHz Clock Frequency

Extended Interrupt Handler

On-chip Debug Logic
Program and Data Memory Security
Performance
The CIP-51 employs a pipelined architecture that greatly increases its instruction throughput over the
standard 8051 architecture. In a standard 8051, all instructions except for MUL and DIV take 12 or 24
system clock cycles to execute and usually have a maximum system clock of 12 MHz. By contrast, the
CIP-51 core executes 70% of its instructions in one or two system clock cycles, with no instructions taking
more than eight system clock cycles.

Programming and Debugging Support
In-system programming of the Flash program memory and communication with on-chip debug support
logic is accomplished via the Silicon Labs 2-Wire Development Interface (C2).
The on-chip debug support logic facilitates full speed in-circuit debugging, allowing the setting of hardware
breakpoints, starting, stopping and single stepping through program execution (including interrupt service
routines), examination of the program's call stack, and reading/writing the contents of registers and
memory. This method of on-chip debugging is completely non-intrusive, requiring no RAM, Stack, timers,
or other on-chip resources. C2 details can be found in Section “27. C2 Interface” on page 319.
The CIP-51 is supported by development tools from Silicon Labs and third party vendors. Silicon Labs
provides an integrated development environment (IDE) including editor, debugger and programmer. The
IDE's debugger and programmer interface to the CIP-51 via the C2 interface to provide fast and efficient
in-system device programming and debugging. Third party macro assemblers and C compilers are also
available.
9.3.
Instruction Set
The instruction set of the CIP-51 System Controller is fully compatible with the standard MCS-51™
instruction set. Standard 8051 development tools can be used to develop software for the CIP-51. All CIP51 instructions are the binary and functional equivalent of their MCS-51™ counterparts, including opcodes,
addressing modes and effect on PSW flags. However, instruction timing is different than that of the
standard 8051.
9.3.1. Instruction and CPU Timing
In many 8051 implementations, a distinction is made between machine cycles and clock cycles, with
machine cycles varying from 2 to 12 clock cycles in length. However, the CIP-51 implementation is based
solely on clock cycle timing. All instruction timings are specified in terms of clock cycles.
Due to the pipelined architecture of the CIP-51, most instructions execute in the same number of clock
cycles as there are program bytes in the instruction. Conditional branch instructions take one less clock
cycle to complete when the branch is not taken as opposed to when the branch is taken. Table 9.1 is the
CIP-51 Instruction Set Summary, which includes the mnemonic, number of bytes, and number of clock
cycles for each instruction.

10. Memory Organization
The memory organization of the CIP-51 System Controller is similar to that of a standard 8051. There are
two separate memory spaces: program memory and data memory. Program and data memory share the
same address space but are accessed via different instruction types. The memory organization of the
C8051F99x-C8051F98x device family is shown in Figure 10.1.

10.1. Program Memory
The CIP-51 core has a 64 kB program memory space. The C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices implement
8 kB (C8051F980/1/6/7, C8051F990/1/6/7), 4 kB (C8051F982/3/8/9), or 2 kB (C8051F985) of this program
memory space as in-system, re-programmable Flash memory, organized in a contiguous block from
addresses 0x0000 to 0x1FFF (8 kB devices), 0x0FFF (4 kB devices), or 0x07FF (2 kB devices). The last
byte of this contiguous block of addresses serves as the security lock byte for the device. Any addresses
above the lock byte are reserved.

10.1.1. MOVX Instruction and Program Memory
The MOVX instruction in an 8051 device is typically used to access external data memory. On the
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices, the MOVX instruction is normally used to read and write on-chip XRAM,
but can be re-configured to write and erase on-chip Flash memory space. MOVC instructions are always
used to read Flash memory, while MOVX write instructions are used to erase and write Flash. This Flash
access feature provides a mechanism for the C8051F99x-C8051F98x to update program code and use
the program memory space for non-volatile data storage. Refer to Section “14. Flash Memory” on
page 150 for further details.
10.2. Data Memory
The C8051F99x-C8051F98x device family include 512 bytes of RAM data memory. 256 bytes of this
memory is mapped into the internal RAM space of the 8051. The remainder of this memory is on-chip
“external” memory. The data memory map is shown in Figure 10.1 for reference.
10.2.1. Internal RAM
There are 256 bytes of internal RAM mapped into the data memory space from 0x00 through 0xFF. The
lower 128 bytes of data memory are used for general purpose registers and scratch pad memory. Either
direct or indirect addressing may be used to access the lower 128 bytes of data memory. Locations 0x00
through 0x1F are addressable as four banks of general purpose registers, each bank consisting of eight
byte-wide registers. The next 16 bytes, locations 0x20 through 0x2F, may either be addressed as bytes or
as 128 bit locations accessible with the direct addressing mode.
The upper 128 bytes of data memory are accessible only by indirect addressing. This region occupies the
same address space as the Special Function Registers (SFR) but is physically separate from the SFR
Rev. 1.2
129
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
space. The addressing mode used by an instruction when accessing locations above 0x7F determines
whether the CPU accesses the upper 128 bytes of data memory space or the SFRs. Instructions that use
direct addressing will access the SFR space. Instructions using indirect addressing above 0x7F access the
upper 128 bytes of data memory. Figure 10.1 illustrates the data memory organization of the C8051F99xC8051F98x.
10.2.1.1.General Purpose Registers
The lower 32 bytes of data memory, locations 0x00 through 0x1F, may be addressed as four banks of
general-purpose registers. Each bank consists of eight byte-wide registers designated R0 through R7.
Only one of these banks may be enabled at a time. Two bits in the program status word, RS0 (PSW.3) and
RS1 (PSW.4), select the active register bank (see description of the PSW in SFR Definition 9.6). This
allows fast context switching when entering subroutines and interrupt service routines. Indirect addressing
modes use registers R0 and R1 as index registers.
10.2.1.2.Bit Addressable Locations
In addition to direct access to data memory organized as bytes, the sixteen data memory locations at 0x20
through 0x2F are also accessible as 128 individually addressable bits. Each bit has a bit address from
0x00 to 0x7F. Bit 0 of the byte at 0x20 has bit address 0x00 while bit7 of the byte at 0x20 has bit address
0x07. Bit 7 of the byte at 0x2F has bit address 0x7F. A bit access is distinguished from a full byte access by
the type of instruction used (bit source or destination operands as opposed to a byte source or
destination).
The MCS-51™ assembly language allows an alternate notation for bit addressing of the form XX.B where
XX is the byte address and B is the bit position within the byte. For example, the instruction:
MOV
C, 22.3h
moves the Boolean value at 0x13 (bit 3 of the byte at location 0x22) into the Carry flag.
10.2.1.3.Stack
A programmer's stack can be located anywhere in the 256-byte data memory. The stack area is
designated using the Stack Pointer (SP) SFR. The SP will point to the last location used. The next value
pushed on the stack is placed at SP+1 and then SP is incremented. A reset initializes the stack pointer to
location 0x07. Therefore, the first value pushed on the stack is placed at location 0x08, which is also the
first register (R0) of register bank 1. Thus, if more than one register bank is to be used, the SP should be
initialized to a location in the data memory not being used for data storage. The stack depth can extend up
to 256 bytes.
10.2.2. External RAM
There are 256 bytes of on-chip RAM mapped into the external data memory space. All of these address
locations may be accessed using the external move instruction (MOVX) and the data pointer (DPTR), or
using MOVX indirect addressing mode (such as @R1).

11. On-Chip XRAM
The C8051F99x-C8051F98x MCUs include on-chip RAM mapped into the external data memory space
(XRAM). The external memory space may be accessed using the external move instruction (MOVX) with
the target address specified in either the data pointer (DPTR), or with the target address low byte in R0 or
R1. On C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices, the target address high byte is a don’t care.
When using the MOVX instruction to access on-chip RAM, no additional initialization is required and the
MOVX instruction execution time is as specified in the CIP-51 chapter.
Important Note: MOVX write operations can be configured to target Flash memory, instead of XRAM. See
Section “14. Flash Memory” on page 150 for more details. The MOVX instruction accesses XRAM by
default.
Important Note: On device reset or upon waking up from Sleep mode, address 0x0000 of external
memory may be overwritten by an indeterminate value. The indeterminate value is 0x00 in most situations.
A dummy variable should be placed at address 0x0000 in external memory to ensure that the application
firmware does not store any data that needs to be retained during sleep or reset at this memory location.
11.1. Accessing XRAM
The XRAM memory space is accessed using the MOVX instruction. The MOVX instruction has two forms,
both of which use an indirect addressing method. The first method uses the Data Pointer, DPTR, a 16-bit
register which contains the effective address of the XRAM location to be read from or written to. The
second method uses R0 or R1 to generate the effective XRAM address. Examples of both of these
methods are given below.
11.1.1. 16-Bit MOVX Example
The 16-bit form of the MOVX instruction accesses the memory location pointed to by the contents of the
DPTR register. The following series of instructions reads the value of the byte at address 0x1234 into the
accumulator A:
MOV
MOVX
DPTR, #0034h
A, @DPTR
; load DPTR with 16-bit address to read (0x0034)
; load contents of 0x0034 into accumulator A
The above example uses the 16-bit immediate MOV instruction to set the contents of DPTR. Alternately,
the DPTR can be accessed through the SFR registers DPH, which contains the upper 8-bits of DPTR, and
DPL, which contains the lower 8-bits of DPTR.
11.1.2. 8-Bit MOVX Example
The 8-bit form of the MOVX instruction uses the contents of R0 or R1 to determine the 8-bits of the
effective address to be accessed. The following series of instructions read the contents of the byte at
address 0x0034 into the accumulator A.
MOV
MOVX
131
R0, #34h
a, @R0
; load low byte of address into R0 (or R1)
; load contents of 0x0034 into accumulator A

C8051F99x-C8051F98x
12. Special Function Registers
The direct-access data memory locations from 0x80 to 0xFF constitute the special function registers
(SFRs). The SFRs provide control and data exchange with the C8051F99x-C8051F98x's resources and
peripherals. The CIP-51 controller core duplicates the SFRs found in a typical 8051 implementation as well
as implementing additional SFRs used to configure and access the sub-systems unique to the
C8051F99x-C8051F98x. This allows the addition of new functionality while retaining compatibility with the
MCS-51™ instruction set. Table 12.1 and Table 12.2 list the SFRs implemented in the C8051F99xC8051F98x device family.
The SFR registers are accessed anytime the direct addressing mode is used to access memory locations
from 0x80 to 0xFF. SFRs with addresses ending in 0x0 or 0x8 (e.g., P0, TCON, SCON0, IE, etc.) are bitaddressable as well as byte-addressable. All other SFRs are byte-addressable only. Unoccupied
addresses in the SFR space are reserved for future use. Accessing these areas will have an indeterminate
effect and should be avoided. Refer to the corresponding pages of the data sheet, as indicated in
Table 12.3, for a detailed description of each register.

12.1. SFR Paging
To accommodate more than 128 SFRs in the 0x80 to 0xFF address space, SFR paging has been implemented. By default, all SFR accesses target SFR Page 0x0 to allow access to the registers listed in
Table 12.1. During device initialization, some SFRs located on SFR Page 0xF may need to be accessed.
Table 12.2 lists the SFRs accessible from SFR Page 0x0F. Some SFRs are accessible from both pages,
including the SFRPAGE register. SFRs only accessible from Page 0xF are in bold.
The following procedure should be used when accessing SFRs on Page 0xF:
1. Save the current interrupt state (EA_save = EA).
2. Disable Interrupts (EA = 0).
3. Set SFRPAGE = 0xF.
4. Access the SFRs located on SFR Page 0xF.
5. Set SFRPAGE = 0x0.
6. Restore interrupt state (EA = EA_save).

13. Interrupt Handler
The C8051F99x-C8051F98x microcontroller family includes an extended interrupt system supporting
multiple interrupt sources and two priority levels. The allocation of interrupt sources between on-chip
peripherals and external input pins varies according to the specific version of the device. Refer to
Table 13.1, “Interrupt Summary,” on page 140 for a detailed listing of all interrupt sources supported by the
device. Refer to the data sheet section associated with a particular on-chip peripheral for information
regarding valid interrupt conditions for the peripheral and the behavior of its interrupt-pending flag(s).
Each interrupt source has one or more associated interrupt-pending flag(s) located in an SFR or an
indirect register. When a peripheral or external source meets a valid interrupt condition, the associated
interrupt-pending flag is set to logic 1. If both global interrupts and the specific interrupt source is enabled,
a CPU interrupt request is generated when the interrupt-pending flag is set.
As soon as execution of the current instruction is complete, the CPU generates an LCALL to a
predetermined address to begin execution of an interrupt service routine (ISR). Each ISR must end with an
RETI instruction, which returns program execution to the next instruction that would have been executed if
the interrupt request had not occurred. If interrupts are not enabled, the interrupt-pending flag is ignored by
the hardware and program execution continues as normal. (The interrupt-pending flag is set to logic 1
regardless of the interrupt's enable/disable state.)
Some interrupt-pending flags are automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the ISR.
However, most are not cleared by the hardware and must be cleared by software before returning from the
ISR. If an interrupt-pending flag remains set after the CPU completes the return-from-interrupt (RETI)
instruction, a new interrupt request will be generated immediately and the CPU will re-enter the ISR after
the completion of the next instruction.
13.1. Enabling Interrupt Sources
Each interrupt source can be individually enabled or disabled through the use of an associated interrupt
enable bit in the Interrupt Enable and Extended Interrupt Enable SFRs. However, interrupts must first be
globally enabled by setting the EA bit (IE.7) to logic 1 before the individual interrupt enables are
recognized. Setting the EA bit to logic 0 disables all interrupt sources regardless of the individual interruptenable settings. Note that interrupts which occur when the EA bit is set to logic 0 will be held in a pending
state, and will not be serviced until the EA bit is set back to logic 1.
13.2. MCU Interrupt Sources and Vectors
The CPU services interrupts by generating an LCALL to a predetermined address (the interrupt vector
address) to begin execution of an interrupt service routine (ISR). The interrupt vector addresses
associated with each interrupt source are listed in Table 13.1 on page 140. Software should ensure that
the interrupt vector for each enabled interrupt source contains a valid interrupt service routine.
Software can simulate an interrupt by setting any interrupt-pending flag to logic 1. If interrupts are enabled
for the flag, an interrupt request will be generated and the CPU will vector to the ISR address associated
with the interrupt-pending flag.

Rev. 1.2
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
13.3. Interrupt Priorities
Each interrupt source can be individually programmed to one of two priority levels: low or high. A low
priority interrupt service routine can be preempted by a high priority interrupt. A high priority interrupt
cannot be preempted. If a high priority interrupt preempts a low priority interrupt, the low priority interrupt
will finish execution after the high priority interrupt completes. Each interrupt has an associated interrupt
priority bit in in the Interrupt Priority and Extended Interrupt Priority registers used to configure its priority
level. Low priority is the default.
If two interrupts are recognized simultaneously, the interrupt with the higher priority is serviced first. If both
interrupts have the same priority level, a fixed priority order is used to arbitrate. See Table 13.1 on
page 140 to determine the fixed priority order used to arbitrate between simultaneously recognized
interrupts.
13.4. Interrupt Latency
Interrupt response time depends on the state of the CPU when the interrupt occurs. Pending interrupts are
sampled and priority decoded each system clock cycle. Therefore, the fastest possible response time is 7
system clock cycles: 1 clock cycle to detect the interrupt, 1 clock cycle to execute a single instruction, and
5 clock cycles to complete the LCALL to the ISR. If an interrupt is pending when a RETI is executed, a
single instruction is executed before an LCALL is made to service the pending interrupt. Therefore, the
maximum response time for an interrupt (when no other interrupt is currently being serviced or the new
interrupt is of greater priority) occurs when the CPU is performing an RETI instruction followed by a DIV as
the next instruction. In this case, the response time is 19 system clock cycles: 1 clock cycle to detect the
interrupt, 5 clock cycles to execute the RETI, 8 clock cycles to complete the DIV instruction and 5 clock
cycles to execute the LCALL to the ISR. If the CPU is executing an ISR for an interrupt with equal or higher
priority, the new interrupt will not be serviced until the current ISR completes, including the RETI and
following instruction.

The INT0 and INT1 external interrupt sources are configurable as active high or low, edge or level
sensitive. The IN0PL (INT0 Polarity) and IN1PL (INT1 Polarity) bits in the IT01CF register select active
high or active low; the IT0 and IT1 bits in TCON (Section “25.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1” on page 280) select
level or edge sensitive. The table below lists the possible configurations.

INT0 and INT1 are assigned to Port pins as defined in the IT01CF register (see SFR Definition 13.7). Note
that INT0 and INT0 Port pin assignments are independent of any Crossbar assignments. INT0 and INT1
will monitor their assigned Port pins without disturbing the peripheral that was assigned the Port pin via the
Crossbar. To assign a Port pin only to INT0 and/or INT1, configure the Crossbar to skip the selected pin(s).
This is accomplished by setting the associated bit in register PnSKIP (see Section “21.3. Priority Crossbar
Decoder” on page 219 for complete details on configuring the Crossbar).
IE0 (TCON.1) and IE1 (TCON.3) serve as the interrupt-pending flags for the INT0 and INT1 external
interrupts, respectively. If an INT0 or INT1 external interrupt is configured as edge-sensitive, the
corresponding interrupt-pending flag is automatically cleared by the hardware when the CPU vectors to the
ISR. When configured as level sensitive, the interrupt-pending flag remains logic 1 while the input is active
as defined by the corresponding polarity bit (IN0PL or IN1PL); the flag remains logic 0 while the input is
inactive. The external interrupt source must hold the input active until the interrupt request is recognized. It
must then deactivate the interrupt request before execution of the ISR completes or another interrupt
request will be generated.

14. Flash Memory
On-chip, re-programmable Flash memory is included for program code and non-volatile data storage. The
Flash memory can be programmed in-system through the C2 interface or by software using the MOVX
write instruction. Once cleared to logic 0, a Flash bit must be erased to set it back to logic 1. Flash bytes
would typically be erased (set to 0xFF) before being reprogrammed. The write and erase operations are
automatically timed by hardware for proper execution; data polling to determine the end of the write/erase
operations is not required. Code execution is stalled during Flash write/erase operations. Refer to
Table 4.6 for complete Flash memory electrical characteristics.
14.1. Programming the Flash Memory
The simplest means of programming the Flash memory is through the C2 interface using programming
tools provided by Silicon Laboratories or a third party vendor. This is the only means for programming a
non-initialized device. For details on the C2 commands to program Flash memory, see Section “27. C2
Interface” on page 319.
The Flash memory can be programmed by software using the MOVX write instruction with the address and
data byte to be programmed provided as normal operands. Before programming Flash memory using
MOVX, Flash programming operations must be enabled by: (1) setting the PSWE Program Store Write
Enable bit (PSCTL.0) to logic 1 (this directs the MOVX writes to target Flash memory); and (2) Writing the
Flash key codes in sequence to the Flash Lock register (FLKEY). The PSWE bit remains set until cleared
by software. For detailed guidelines on programming Flash from firmware, please see Section “14.5. Flash
Write and Erase Guidelines” on page 156.
To ensure the integrity of the Flash contents, the on-chip VDD Monitor must be enabled and enabled as a
reset source in any system that includes code that writes and/or erases Flash memory from software. Furthermore, there should be no delay between enabling the VDD Monitor and enabling the VDD Monitor as a
reset source. Any attempt to write or erase Flash memory while the VDD Monitor is disabled, or not
enabled as a reset source, will cause a Flash Error device reset.
14.1.1. Flash Lock and Key Functions
Flash writes and erases by user software are protected with a lock and key function. The Flash Lock and
Key Register (FLKEY) must be written with the correct key codes, in sequence, before Flash operations
may be performed. The key codes are: 0xA5, 0xF1. The timing does not matter, but the codes must be
written in order. If the key codes are written out of order, or the wrong codes are written, Flash writes and
erases will be disabled until the next system reset. Flash writes and erases will also be disabled if a Flash
write or erase is attempted before the key codes have been written properly. The Flash lock resets after
each write or erase; the key codes must be written again before a following Flash operation can be performed. The FLKEY register is detailed in SFR Definition 14.4.
150
Rev. 1.2
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
14.1.2. Flash Erase Procedure
The Flash memory is organized in 512-byte pages. The erase operation applies to an entire page (setting
all bytes in the page to 0xFF). To erase an entire Flash page, perform the following steps:
1. Save current interrupt state and disable interrupts.
2. Set the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).
3. Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).
4. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
5. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
6. Using the MOVX instruction, write a data byte to any location within the page to be erased.
7. Clear the PSWE and PSEE bits.
8. Restore previous interrupt state.
Steps 4–6 must be repeated for each 512-byte page to be erased.
Notes:
1. Flash security settings may prevent erasure of some Flash pages, such as the reserved area and the page
containing the lock bytes. For a summary of Flash security settings and restrictions affecting Flash erase
operations, please see Section “14.3. Security Options” on page 152.
2. 8-bit MOVX instructions cannot be used to erase or write to Flash memory at addresses higher than 0x00FF.
14.1.3. Flash Write Procedure
A write to Flash memory can clear bits to logic 0 but cannot set them; only an erase operation can set bits
to logic 1 in Flash. A byte location to be programmed should be erased before a new value is written.
The recommended procedure for writing a single byte in Flash is as follows:
1. Save current interrupt state and disable interrupts.
2. Ensure that the Flash byte has been erased (has a value of 0xFF).
3. Set the PSWE bit (register PSCTL).
4. Clear the PSEE bit (register PSCTL).
5. Write the first key code to FLKEY: 0xA5.
6. Write the second key code to FLKEY: 0xF1.
7. Using the MOVX instruction, write a single data byte to the desired location within the 1024-byte sector.
8. Clear the PSWE bit.
9. Restore previous interrupt state.
Steps 5–7 must be repeated for each byte to be written.
Notes:
1. Flash security settings may prevent writes to some areas of Flash, such as the reserved area. For a summary
of Flash security settings and restrictions affecting Flash write operations, please see Section “14.3. Security
Options” on page 152.
2. 8-bit MOVX instructions cannot be used to erase or write to Flash memory at addresses higher than 0x00FF.
14.2. Non-volatile Data Storage
The Flash memory can be used for non-volatile data storage as well as program code. This allows data
such as calibration coefficients to be calculated and stored at run time. Data is written using the MOVX
write instruction and read using the MOVC instruction. MOVX read instructions always target XRAM.
Rev. 1.2
151
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
14.3. Security Options
The CIP-51 provides security options to protect the Flash memory from inadvertent modification by software as well as to prevent the viewing of proprietary program code and constants. The Program Store
Write Enable (bit PSWE in register PSCTL) and the Program Store Erase Enable (bit PSEE in register
PSCTL) bits protect the Flash memory from accidental modification by software. PSWE must be explicitly
set to 1 before software can modify the Flash memory; both PSWE and PSEE must be set to 1 before software can erase Flash memory. Additional security features prevent proprietary program code and data
constants from being read or altered across the C2 interface.
A Security Lock Byte located at the last byte of Flash user space offers protection of the Flash program
memory from access (reads, writes, or erases) by unprotected code or the C2 interface. See Section
“10. Memory Organization” on page 128 for the location of the security byte. The Flash security mechanism allows the user to lock n 512-byte Flash pages, starting at page 0 (addresses 0x0000 to 0x01FF),
where n is the 1s complement number represented by the Security Lock Byte. The page containing the
Flash Security Lock Byte is unlocked when no other Flash pages are locked (all bits of the Lock
Byte are 1) and locked when any other Flash pages are locked (any bit of the Lock Byte is 0).

The level of Flash security depends on the Flash access method. The three Flash access methods that
can be restricted are reads, writes, and erases from the C2 debug interface, user firmware executing on
unlocked pages, and user firmware executing on locked pages. Table 14.1 summarizes the Flash security
features of the C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices.

14.5. Flash Write and Erase Guidelines
Any system which contains routines which write or erase Flash memory from software involves some risk
that the write or erase routines will execute unintentionally if the CPU is operating outside its specified
operating range of VDD, system clock frequency, or temperature. This accidental execution of Flash modifying code can result in alteration of Flash memory contents causing a system failure that is only recoverable by re-Flashing the code in the device.
To help prevent the accidental modification of Flash by firmware, the VDD Monitor must be enabled and
enabled as a reset source on C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices for the Flash to be successfully modified. If
either the VDD Monitor or the VDD Monitor reset source is not enabled, a Flash Error Device Reset
will be generated when the firmware attempts to modify the Flash.
The following guidelines are recommended for any system that contains routines which write or erase
Flash from code.
14.5.1. VDD Maintenance and the VDD Monitor
1. If the system power supply is subject to voltage or current "spikes," add sufficient transient protection
devices to the power supply to ensure that the supply voltages listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings
table are not exceeded.
2. Make certain that the minimum VDD rise time specification of 1 ms is met. If the system cannot meet
this rise time specification, then add an external VDD brownout circuit to the RST pin of the device that
holds the device in reset until VDD reaches the minimum device operating voltage and re-asserts RST if
VDD drops below the minimum device operating voltage.
3. Keep the on-chip VDD Monitor enabled and enable the VDD Monitor as a reset source as early in code
as possible. This should be the first set of instructions executed after the Reset Vector. For C-based
systems, this will involve modifying the startup code added by the C compiler. See your compiler
documentation for more details. Make certain that there are no delays in software between enabling the
VDD Monitor and enabling the VDD Monitor as a reset source. Code examples showing this can be
found in “AN201: Writing to Flash from Firmware," available from the Silicon Laboratories website.
Notes:
1. On C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices, both the VDD Monitor and the VDD Monitor reset source must be enabled
to write or erase Flash without generating a Flash Error Device Reset.
2. On C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices, both the VDD Monitor and the VDD Monitor reset source are enabled by
hardware after a power-on reset.
4. As an added precaution, explicitly enable the VDD Monitor and enable the VDD Monitor as a reset
source inside the functions that write and erase Flash memory. The VDD Monitor enable instructions
should be placed just after the instruction to set PSWE to a 1, but before the Flash write or erase
operation instruction.
5. Make certain that all writes to the RSTSRC (Reset Sources) register use direct assignment operators
and explicitly DO NOT use the bit-wise operators (such as AND or OR). For example, "RSTSRC =
0x02" is correct, but "RSTSRC |= 0x02" is incorrect.
6. Make certain that all writes to the RSTSRC register explicitly set the PORSF bit to a 1. Areas to check
are initialization code which enables other reset sources, such as the Missing Clock Detector or
Comparator, for example, and instructions which force a Software Reset. A global search on "RSTSRC"
can quickly verify this.
156
Rev. 1.2
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
14.5.2. PSWE Maintenance
1. Reduce the number of places in code where the PSWE bit (b0 in PSCTL) is set to a 1. There should be
exactly one routine in code that sets PSWE to a 1 to write Flash bytes and one routine in code that sets
both PSWE and PSEE both to a 1 to erase Flash pages.
2. Minimize the number of variable accesses while PSWE is set to a 1. Handle pointer address updates
and loop maintenance outside the "PSWE = 1;... PSWE = 0;" area. Code examples showing this can be
found in :AN201: "Writing to Flash from Firmware", available from the Silicon Laboratories website.
3. Disable interrupts prior to setting PSWE to a 1 and leave them disabled until after PSWE has been
reset to 0. Any interrupts posted during the Flash write or erase operation will be serviced in priority
order after the Flash operation has been completed and interrupts have been re-enabled by software.
4. Make certain that the Flash write and erase pointer variables are not located in XRAM. See your
compiler documentation for instructions regarding how to explicitly locate variables in different memory
areas.
5. Add address bounds checking to the routines that write or erase Flash memory to ensure that a routine
called with an illegal address does not result in modification of the Flash.
14.5.3. System Clock
1. If operating from an external crystal, be advised that crystal performance is susceptible to electrical
interference and is sensitive to layout and to changes in temperature. If the system is operating in an
electrically noisy environment, use the internal oscillator or use an external CMOS clock.
2. If operating from the external oscillator, switch to the internal oscillator during Flash write or erase
operations. The external oscillator can continue to run, and the CPU can switch back to the external
oscillator after the Flash operation has completed.
Additional Flash recommendations and example code can be found in “AN201: Writing to Flash from Firmware", available from the Silicon Laboratories web site.

C8051F99x-C8051F98x
14.6. Minimizing Flash Read Current
The Flash memory in the C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices is responsible for a substantial portion of the
total digital supply current when the device is executing code. Below are suggestions to minimize Flash
read current.
1. Use idle, suspend, or sleep modes while waiting for an interrupt, rather than polling the interrupt flag.
Idle Mode is particularly well-suited for use in implementing short pauses, since the wake-up time is no
more than three system clock cycles. See the Power Management chapter for details on the various
low-power operating modes.
2. C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices have a one-shot timer that saves power when operating at system
clock frequencies of 14 MHz or less. The one-shot timer generates a minimum-duration enable signal
for the Flash sense amps on each clock cycle in which the Flash memory is accessed. This allows the
Flash to remain in a low power state for the remainder of the long clock cycle.
At clock frequencies above 14 MHz, the system clock cycle becomes short enough that the one-shot
timer no longer provides a power benefit. Disabling the one-shot timer at higher frequencies reduces
power consumption. The one-shot is enabled by default, and it can be disabled (bypassed) by setting
the BYPASS bit (FLSCL.6) to logic 1. To re-enable the one-shot, clear the BYPASS bit to logic 0.
3. Flash read current depends on the number of address lines that toggle between sequential Flash read
operations. In most cases, the difference in power is relatively small (on the order of 5%).
The Flash memory is organized in rows of 64 bytes. A substantial current increase can be detected
when the read address jumps from one row in the Flash memory to another. Consider a 3-cycle loop
(e.g., SJMP $, or while(1);) which straddles a Flash row boundary. The Flash address jumps from one
row to another on two of every three clock cycles. This can result in a current increase of up 30% when
compared to the same 3-cycle loop contained entirely within a single row.
To minimize the power consumption of small loops, it is best to locate them within a single row, if
possible. To check if a loop is contained within a Flash row, divide the starting address of the first
instruction in the loop by 64. If the remainder (result of modulo operation) plus the length of the loop is
less than 63, then the loop fits inside a single Flash row. Otherwise, the loop will be straddling two
adjacent Flash rows. If a loop executes in 20 or more clock cycles, then the transitions from one row to
another will occur on relatively few clock cycles, and any resulting increase in operating current will be
negligible.

complete. If any writes to FLKEY are performed incorrectly, or if a Flash write or erase
operation is attempted while these operations are disabled, the Flash will be permanently locked from writes or erasures until the next device reset. If an application
never writes to Flash, it can intentionally lock the Flash by writing a non-0xA5 value to
FLKEY from software.

15. Power Management
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices support 5 power modes: Normal, Idle, Stop, Suspend, and Sleep. The
power management unit (PMU0) allows the device to enter and wake-up from the available power modes.
A brief description of each power mode is provided in Table 15.1. Detailed descriptions of each mode can
be found in the following sections.

In battery powered systems, the system should spend as much time as possible in sleep mode in order to
preserve battery life. When a task with a fixed number of clock cycles needs to be performed, the device
should switch to normal mode, finish the task as quickly as possible, and return to sleep mode. Idle mode
and suspend modes provide a very fast wake-up time; however, the power savings in these modes will not
be as much as in sleep mode. Stop mode is included for legacy reasons; the system will be more power
efficient and easier to wake up when idle, suspend, or sleep mode are used.
Although switching power modes is an integral part of power management, enabling/disabling individual
peripherals as needed will help lower power consumption in all power modes. Each analog peripheral can
be disabled when not in use or placed in a low power mode. Digital peripherals such as timers or serial
busses draw little power whenever they are not in use. Digital peripherals draw no power in sleep mode.

15.1. Normal Mode
The MCU is fully functional in normal mode. Figure 15.1 shows the on-chip power distribution to various
peripherals. There are two supply voltages powering various sections of the chip: VDD and the 1.8 V internal core supply. All analog peripherals are directly powered from the VDD pin. All digital peripherals and the
CIP-51 core are powered from the 1.8 V internal core supply. RAM, PMU0 and the SmaRTClock are
always powered directly from the VDD pin in sleep mode and powered from the core supply in all other
power modes.

15.2. Idle Mode
Setting the Idle Mode Select bit (PCON.0) causes the CIP-51 to halt the CPU and enter Idle mode as soon
as the instruction that sets the bit completes execution. All internal registers and memory maintain their
original data. All analog and digital peripherals can remain active during Idle mode.
Note: To ensure the MCU enters a low power state upon entry into Idle Mode, the one-shot circuit should be enabled
by clearing the BYPASS bit (FLSCL.6).
Idle mode is terminated when an enabled interrupt is asserted or a reset occurs. The assertion of an
enabled interrupt will cause the Idle Mode Selection bit (PCON.0) to be cleared and the CPU to resume
operation. The pending interrupt will be serviced and the next instruction to be executed after the return
from interrupt (RETI) will be the instruction immediately following the one that set the Idle Mode Select bit.
If Idle mode is terminated by an internal or external reset, the CIP-51 performs a normal reset sequence
and begins program execution at address 0x0000.
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer (WDT) will eventually cause an internal watchdog reset and thereby terminate the Idle mode. This feature protects the system from an unintended permanent shutdown in the event
of an inadvertent write to the PCON register. If this behavior is not desired, the WDT may be disabled by
software prior to entering the idle mode if the WDT was initially configured to allow this operation. This provides the opportunity for additional power savings, allowing the system to remain in the idle mode indefinitely, waiting for an external stimulus to wake up the system. Refer to Section “18.6. PCA Watchdog Timer
Reset” on page 185 for more information on the use and configuration of the WDT.
15.3. Stop Mode
Setting the Stop Mode Select bit (PCON.1) causes the CIP-51 to enter stop mode as soon as the instruction that sets the bit completes execution. In stop mode the precision internal oscillator and CPU are
stopped; the state of the low power oscillator and the external oscillator circuit is not affected. Each analog
peripheral (including the external oscillator circuit) may be shut down individually prior to entering stop
mode. Stop mode can only be terminated by an internal or external reset. On reset, the CIP-51 performs
the normal reset sequence and begins program execution at address 0x0000.
If enabled, the Missing Clock Detector will cause an internal reset and thereby terminate the Stop mode.
The Missing Clock Detector should be disabled if the CPU is to be put to in STOP mode for longer than the
MCD timeout.
Stop mode is a legacy 8051 power mode; it will not result in optimal power savings. Sleep or suspend
mode will provide more power savings if the MCU needs to be inactive for a long period of time.
Note: To ensure the MCU enters a low power state upon entry into Stop Mode, the one-shot circuit should be enabled
by clearing the BYPASS bit (FLSCL.6).
164
Rev. 1.2
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
15.4. Suspend Mode
Setting the Suspend Mode Select bit (PMU0CF.6) causes the system clock to be gated off and all internal
oscillators disabled. The system clock source must be set to the low power internal oscillator or the precision oscillator prior to entering Suspend Mode. All digital logic (timers, communication peripherals, interrupts, CPU, etc.) stops functioning until one of the enabled wake-up sources occurs.
The following wake-up sources can be configured to wake the device from Suspend Mode:
CS0 End of Conversion or End of Scan
SmaRTClock Oscillator Fail
SmaRTClock Alarm
Port Match Event
Comparator0 Rising Edge
Note: Upon wake-up from suspend mode, PMU0 requires two system clocks in order to update the PMU0CF wakeup flags. All flags will read back a value of '0' during the first two system clocks following a wake-up from
suspend mode.
In addition, a noise glitch on RST that is not long enough to reset the device will cause the device to exit
suspend. In order for the MCU to respond to the pin reset event, software must not place the device back
into suspend mode for a period of 15 µs. The PMU0CF register may be checked to determine if the wakeup was due to a falling edge on the /RST pin. If the wake-up source is not due to a falling edge on RST,
there is no time restriction on how soon software may place the device back into suspend mode. A 4.7 kW
pullup resistor to VDD is recommend for RST to prevent noise glitches from waking the device.
15.5. Sleep Mode
Setting the Sleep Mode Select bit (PMU0CF.7) turns off the internal 1.8 V regulator (VREG0) and switches
the power supply of all on-chip RAM to the VDD pin (see Figure 15.1). Power to most digital logic on the
chip is disconnected; only PMU0 and the SmaRTClock remain powered. Analog peripherals remain powered in two-cell mode. Only the Comparators remain functional when the device enters Sleep Mode. All
other analog peripherals (CS0, ADC0, IREF0, External Oscillator, etc.) should be disabled prior to entering
Sleep Mode. The system clock source must be set to the low power internal oscillator prior to entering
Sleep Mode.
Important Note: The precision internal oscillator may potentially lock up after exiting Sleep mode. Systems using Sleep Mode should switch to the low power oscillator prior to entering Sleep Mode:
1. Switch the system clock to the low power oscillator (CLKSEL = 0x04).
2. Turn off the Precision Oscillator (OSCICN &= ~0x80).
3. Enter Sleep.
4. Exit Sleep.
5. Turn on the Precision Oscillator (OSCICN |= 0x80).
6. Switch the system clock to the Precision Oscillator (CLKSEL = 0x00).
GPIO pins configured as digital outputs will retain their output state during sleep mode. In two-cell mode,
they will maintain the same current drive capability in sleep mode as they have in normal mode.
GPIO pins configured as digital inputs can be used during sleep mode as wakeup sources using the port
match feature. In two-cell mode, they will maintain the same input level specs in sleep mode as they have
in normal mode.
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices support a wakeup request for external devices. Upon exit from sleep
mode, the wake-up request signal is driven low, allowing other devices in the system to wake up from their
low power modes.
Rev. 1.2
165
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
RAM and SFR register contents are preserved in sleep mode as long as the voltage on VDD does not fall
below VPOR. The PC counter and all other volatile state information is preserved allowing the device to
resume code execution upon waking up from sleep mode.
Important Note: On device reset or upon waking up from Sleep mode, address 0x0000 of external memory may be overwritten by an indeterminate value. The indeterminate value is 0x00 in most situations. A
dummy variable should be placed at address 0x0000 in external memory to ensure that the application
firmware does not store any data that needs to be retained during sleep or reset at this memory location.
The following wake-up sources can be configured to wake the device from sleep mode:
SmaRTClock Oscillator Fail
SmaRTClock Alarm
Port Match Event
Comparator0 Rising Edge
The comparator requires a supply voltage of at least 1.8 V to operate properly. On C8051F99x-C8051F98x
devices, the POR supply monitor can be disabled to save power by writing 1 to the MONDIS (PMU0MD.5)
bit. When the POR supply monitor is disabled, all reset sources will trigger a full POR and will re-enable the
POR supply monitor.
Important Note: The POR Supply Monitor should not be disabled if the supply voltage is greater than
2.4 V. The lowest power sleep mode current, 10 nA typical, can only be achieved when the supply voltage
is less than 2.4 V. The lowest power sleep mode for voltages above 2.4 V is 50 nA typical with the POR
Supply Monitor enabled.
In addition, any falling edge on RST (due to a pin reset or a noise glitch) will cause the device to exit sleep
mode. In order for the MCU to respond to the pin reset event, software must not place the device back into
sleep mode for a period of 15 µs. The PMU0CF register may be checked to determine if the wake-up was
due to a falling edge on the RST pin. If the wake-up source is not due to a falling edge on RST, there is no
time restriction on how soon software may place the device back into sleep mode. A 4.7 kΩ pullup resistor
to VDD is recommend for RST to prevent noise glitches from waking the device.
15.6. Configuring Wakeup Sources
Before placing the device in a low power mode, one or more wakeup sources should be enabled so that
the device does not remain in the low power mode indefinitely. For Idle Mode, this includes enabling any
interrupt. For Stop Mode, this includes enabling any reset source or relying on the RST pin to reset the
device.
Wake-up sources for suspend and sleep modes are configured through the PMU0CF register. Wake-up
sources are enabled by writing 1 to the corresponding wake-up source enable bit. Wake-up sources must
be re-enabled each time the device is placed in suspend or sleep mode, in the same write that places the
device in the low power mode.
The reset pin is always enabled as a wake-up source. On the falling edge of RST, the device will be
awaken from sleep mode. The device must remain awake for more than 15 µs in order for the reset to take
place.
166
Rev. 1.2
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
15.7. Determining the Event that Caused the Last Wakeup
When waking from idle mode, the CPU will vector to the interrupt which caused it to wake up. When waking from stop mode, the RSTSRC register may be read to determine the cause of the last reset.
Upon exit from suspend or sleep mode, the wake-up flags in the PMU0CF and PMU0FL registers can be
read to determine the event which caused the device to wake up. After waking up, the wake-up flags will
continue to be updated if any of the wake-up events occur. Wake-up flags are always updated, even if they
are not enabled as wake-up sources.
All wake-up flags enabled as wake-up sources in PMU0CF and PMU0FL must be cleared before the
device can enter suspend or sleep mode. After clearing the wake-up flags, each of the enabled wake-up
events should be checked in the individual peripherals to ensure that a wake-up event did not occur while
the wake-up flags were being cleared.

16. Cyclic Redundancy Check Unit (CRC0)
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include a cyclic redundancy check unit (CRC0) that can perform a CRC
using a 16-bit polynomial. CRC0 accepts a stream of 8-bit data written to the CRC0IN register. CRC0 posts
the 16-bit result to an internal register. The internal result register may be accessed indirectly using the
CRC0PNT bits and CRC0DAT register, as shown in Figure 16.1. CRC0 also has a bit reverse register for
quick data manipulation.

16.1. CRC Algorithm
The C8051F99x-C8051F98x CRC unit generates a CRC result equivalent to the following algorithm:
1. XOR the input with the most-significant bits of the current CRC result. If this is the first iteration of the
CRC unit, the current CRC result will be the set initial value
(0x0000 or 0xFFFF).
2a. If the MSB of the CRC result is set, shift the CRC result and XOR the result with the selected
polynomial.
2b. If the MSB of the CRC result is not set, shift the CRC result.
Repeat Steps 2a/2b for the number of input bits (8). The algorithm is also described in the following example.
172
Rev. 1.2
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
The 16-bit C8051F99x-C8051F98x CRC algorithm can be described by the following code:
unsigned short UpdateCRC (unsigned short CRC_acc, unsigned char CRC_input)
{
unsigned char i;
// loop counter
#define POLY 0x1021
// Create the CRC "dividend" for polynomial arithmetic (binary arithmetic
// with no carries)
CRC_acc = CRC_acc ^ (CRC_input << 8);
// "Divide" the poly into the dividend using CRC XOR subtraction
// CRC_acc holds the "remainder" of each divide
//
// Only complete this division for 8 bits since input is 1 byte
for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
{
// Check if the MSB is set (if MSB is 1, then the POLY can "divide"
// into the "dividend")
if ((CRC_acc & 0x8000) == 0x8000)
{
// if so, shift the CRC value, and XOR "subtract" the poly
CRC_acc = CRC_acc << 1;
CRC_acc ^= POLY;
}
else
{
// if not, just shift the CRC value
CRC_acc = CRC_acc << 1;
}
}
// Return the final remainder (CRC value)
return CRC_acc;
}

16.2. Preparing for a CRC Calculation
To prepare CRC0 for a CRC calculation, software should set the initial value of the result. The polynomial
used for the CRC computation is 0x1021. The CRC0 result may be initialized to one of two values: 0x0000
or 0xFFFF. The following steps can be used to initialize CRC0.
1. Select the initial result value (Set CRC0VAL to 0 for 0x0000 or 1 for 0xFFFF).
2. Set the result to its initial value (Write 1 to CRC0INIT).
16.3. Performing a CRC Calculation
Once CRC0 is initialized, the input data stream is sequentially written to CRC0IN, one byte at a time. The
CRC0 result is automatically updated after each byte is written. The CRC engine may also be configured to
automatically perform a CRC on one or more 256 byte blocks. The following steps can be used to automatically perform a CRC on Flash memory.
1. Prepare CRC0 for a CRC calculation as shown above.
2. Write the index of the starting page to CRC0AUTO.
3. Set the AUTOEN bit in CRC0AUTO.
4. Write the number of 256 byte blocks to perform in the CRC calculation to CRC0CNT.
5. Write any value to CRC0CN (or OR its contents with 0x00) to initiate the CRC calculation. The CPU will
not execute any additional code until the CRC operation completes. See the note in SFR
Definition 16.1. CRC0CN: CRC0 Control for more information on how to properly initiate a CRC
calculation.
6. Clear the AUTOEN bit in CRC0AUTO.
7. Read the CRC result using the procedure below.
16.4. Accessing the CRC0 Result
The internal CRC0 result is 16 bits. The CRC0PNT bits select the byte that is targeted by read and write
operations on CRC0DAT and increment after each read or write. The calculation result will remain in the
internal CR0 result register until it is set, overwritten, or additional data is written to CRC0IN.

1: CRC0DAT accesses bits 15–8 of the 16-bit CRC result.
Note: Upon initiation of an automatic CRC calculation, the three cycles following a write to CRC0CN that initiate a
CRC operation must only contain instructions which execute in the same number of cycles as the number of
bytes in the instruction. An example of such an instruction is a 3-byte MOV that targets the CRC0FLIP
register. When programming in C, the dummy value written to CRC0FLIP should be a non-zero value to
prevent the compiler from generating a 2-byte MOV instruction.

16.5. CRC0 Bit Reverse Feature
CRC0 includes hardware to reverse the bit order of each bit in a byte as shown in Figure 16.2. Each byte
of data written to CRC0FLIP is read back bit reversed. For example, if 0xC0 is written to CRC0FLIP, the
data read back is 0x03. Bit reversal is a useful mathematical function used in algorithms such as the FFT.

17. Voltage Regulator (VREG0)
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include an internal voltage regulator (VREG0) to regulate the internal
core supply to 1.8 V from a VDD supply of 1.8 to 3.6 V. Electrical characteristics for the on-chip regulator
are specified in the Electrical Specifications chapter.
The REG0CN register allows the Precision Oscillator Bias to be disabled, reducing supply current in all
non-Sleep power modes. This bias should only be disabled when the precision oscillator is not being used.
The internal regulator (VREG0) is disabled when the device enters Sleep Mode and remains enabled
when the device enters Suspend Mode. See Section “15. Power Management” on page 162 for complete
details about low power modes.

18. Reset Sources
Reset circuitry allows the controller to be easily placed in a predefined default condition. On entry to this
reset state, the following occur:
CIP-51 halts program execution
Special Function Registers (SFRs) are initialized to their defined reset values
External Port pins are forced to a known state
Interrupts and timers are disabled
All SFRs are reset to the predefined values noted in the SFR descriptions. The contents of RAM are
unaffected during a reset; any previously stored data is preserved as long as power is not lost. Since the
stack pointer SFR is reset, the stack is effectively lost, even though the data on the stack is not altered.
The Port I/O latches are reset to 0xFF (all logic ones) in open-drain mode. Weak pullups are enabled
during and after the reset. For power-on resets, the RST pin is high-impedance with the weak pull-up off
until the device exits the reset state. For VDD Monitor resets, the RST pin is driven low until the device exits
the reset state.
On exit from the reset state, the program counter (PC) is reset, and the system clock defaults to an internal
oscillator. Refer to Section “19. Clocking Sources” on page 188 for information on selecting and
configuring the system clock source. The Watchdog Timer is enabled with the system clock divided by 12
as its clock source (Section “26.4. Watchdog Timer Mode” on page 311 details the use of the Watchdog
Timer). Program execution begins at location 0x0000.
Important Note: On device reset or upon waking up from Sleep mode, address 0x0000 of external
memory may be overwritten by an indeterminate value. The indeterminate value is 0x00 in most situations.
A dummy variable should be placed at address 0x0000 in external memory to ensure that the application
firmware does not store any data that needs to be retained during sleep or reset at this memory location.

18.1. Power-On Reset
During power-up, the device is held in a reset state and the RST pin voltage tracks VDD (through a weak
pull-up) until the device is released from reset. After VDD settles above VPOR, a delay occurs before the
device is released from reset; the delay decreases as the VDD ramp time increases (VDD ramp time is
defined as how fast VDD ramps from 0 V to VPOR). Figure 18.2 plots the power-on and VDD monitor reset
timing. For valid ramp times (less than 3 ms), the power-on reset delay (TPORDelay) is typically 7 ms (VDD =
1.8 V) or 15 ms (VDD = 3.6 V).
Note: The maximum VDD ramp time is 3 ms; slower ramp times may cause the device to be released from reset
before VDD reaches the VPOR level.
On exit from a power-on reset, the PORSF flag (RSTSRC.1) is set by hardware to logic 1. When PORSF is
set, all of the other reset flags in the RSTSRC Register are indeterminate (PORSF is cleared by all other
resets). Since all resets cause program execution to begin at the same location (0x0000), software can
read the PORSF flag to determine if a power-up was the cause of reset. The contents of internal data
memory should be assumed to be undefined after a power-on reset.
volts
The POR supply monitor can be disabled to save power by writing 1 to the MONDIS (PMU0MD.5) bit.
When the POR supply monitor is disabled, all reset sources will trigger a full POR and will re-enable the
POR supply monitor.

18.2. Power-Fail Reset
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices have a VDD Supply Monitor that is enabled and selected as a reset
source after each power-on or power-fail reset. When enabled and selected as a reset source, any power
down transition or power irregularity that causes VDD to drop below VRST will cause the RST pin to be
driven low and the CIP-51 will be held in a reset state (see Figure 18.2). When VDD returns to a level
above VRST, the CIP-51 will be released from the reset state.
After a power-fail reset, the PORSF flag reads 1, the contents of RAM invalid, and the VDD supply monitor
is enabled and selected as a reset source. The enable state of the VDD supply monitor and its selection as
a reset source is only altered by power-on and power-fail resets. For example, if the VDD supply monitor is
de-selected as a reset source and disabled by software, then a software reset is performed, the VDD
supply monitor will remain disabled and de-selected after the reset.
In battery-operated systems, the contents of RAM can be preserved near the end of the battery’s usable
life if the device is placed in Sleep Mode prior to a power-fail reset occurring. When the device is in Sleep
Mode, the power-fail reset is automatically disabled and the contents of RAM are preserved as long as
VDD does not fall below VPOR. A large capacitor can be used to hold the power supply voltage above VPOR
while the user is replacing the battery. Upon waking from Sleep mode, the enable and reset source select
state of the VDD supply monitor are restored to the value last set by the user.
To allow software early notification that a power failure is about to occur, the VDDOK bit is cleared when
the VDD supply falls below the VWARN threshold. The VDDOK bit can be configured to generate an
interrupt. See Section “13. Interrupt Handler” on page 138 for more details.
Important Note: To protect the integrity of Flash contents, the VDD supply monitor must be enabled and
selected as a reset source if software contains routines which erase or write Flash memory. If the
VDD supply monitor is not enabled, any erase or write performed on Flash memory will cause a Flash Error
device reset.
Important Notes:
The Power-on Reset (POR) delay is not incurred after a VDD supply monitor reset. See Section
“4. Electrical Characteristics” on page 48 for complete electrical characteristics of the VDD monitor.
Software should take care not to inadvertently disable the VDD Monitor as a reset source when writing
to RSTSRC to enable other reset sources or to trigger a software reset. All writes to RSTSRC should
explicitly set PORSF to 1 to keep the VDD Monitor enabled as a reset source.
The VDD supply monitor must be enabled before selecting it as a reset source. Selecting the VDD
supply monitor as a reset source before it has stabilized may generate a system reset. In systems
where this reset would be undesirable, a delay should be introduced between enabling the VDD supply
monitor and selecting it as a reset source. See Section “4. Electrical Characteristics” on page 48 for
minimum VDD Supply Monitor turn-on time. No delay should be introduced in systems where
software contains routines that erase or write Flash memory. The procedure for enabling the VDD
supply monitor and selecting it as a reset source is shown below:
1. Enable the VDD Supply Monitor (VDMEN bit in VDM0CN = 1).
2. Wait for the VDD Supply Monitor to stabilize (optional).
3. Select the VDD Supply Monitor as a reset source (PORSF bit in RSTSRC = 1).

18.3. External Reset
The external RST pin provides a means for external circuitry to force the device into a reset state.
Asserting an active-low signal on the RST pin generates a reset; an external pullup and/or decoupling of
the RST pin may be necessary to avoid erroneous noise-induced resets. See Table 4.4 for complete RST
pin specifications. The external reset remains functional even when the device is in the low power suspend
and sleep modes. The PINRSF flag (RSTSRC.0) is set on exit from an external reset.

C8051F99x-C8051F98x
18.4. Missing Clock Detector Reset
The missing clock detector (MCD) is a one-shot circuit that is triggered by the system clock. If the system
clock remains high or low for more than 100 µs, the one-shot will time out and generate a reset. After a
MCD reset, the MCDRSF flag (RSTSRC.2) will read 1, signifying the MCD as the reset source; otherwise,
this bit reads 0. Writing a 1 to the MCDRSF bit enables the Missing Clock Detector; writing a 0 disables it.
The missing clock detector reset is automatically disabled when the device is in the low power suspend or
sleep mode. Upon exit from either low power state, the enabled/disabled state of this reset source is
restored to its previous value. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
18.5. Comparator0 Reset
Comparator0 can be configured as a reset source by writing a 1 to the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5).
Comparator0 should be enabled and allowed to settle prior to writing to C0RSEF to prevent any turn-on
chatter on the output from generating an unwanted reset. The Comparator0 reset is active-low: if the noninverting input voltage (on CP0+) is less than the inverting input voltage (on CP0–), the device is put into
the reset state. After a Comparator0 reset, the C0RSEF flag (RSTSRC.5) will read 1 signifying
Comparator0 as the reset source; otherwise, this bit reads 0. The Comparator0 reset source remains
functional even when the device is in the low power suspend and sleep states as long as Comparator0 is
also enabled as a wake-up source. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
18.6. PCA Watchdog Timer Reset
The programmable watchdog timer (WDT) function of the programmable counter array (PCA) can be used
to prevent software from running out of control during a system malfunction. The PCA WDT function can
be enabled or disabled by software as described in Section “26.4. Watchdog Timer Mode” on page 311;
the WDT is enabled and clocked by SYSCLK / 12 following any reset. If a system malfunction prevents
user software from updating the WDT, a reset is generated and the WDTRSF bit (RSTSRC.5) is set to 1.
The PCA Watchdog Timer reset source is automatically disabled when the device is in the low power
suspend or sleep mode. Upon exit from either low power state, the enabled/disabled state of this reset
source is restored to its previous value.The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
18.7. Flash Error Reset
If a Flash read/write/erase or program read targets an illegal address, a system reset is generated. This
may occur due to any of the following:
A Flash write or erase is attempted above user code space. This occurs when PSWE is set to 1 and a
MOVX write operation targets an address above the Lock Byte address.
A Flash read is attempted above user code space. This occurs when a MOVC operation targets an
address above the Lock Byte address.
A Program read is attempted above user code space. This occurs when user code attempts to branch
to an address above the Lock Byte address.
A Flash read, write or erase attempt is restricted due to a Flash security setting (see Section
“14.3. Security Options” on page 152).
A Flash write or erase is attempted while the VDD Monitor is disabled.
The FERROR bit (RSTSRC.6) is set following a Flash error reset. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by
this reset.

18.8. SmaRTClock (Real Time Clock) Reset
The SmaRTClock can generate a system reset on two events: SmaRTClock Oscillator Fail or
SmaRTClock Alarm. The SmaRTClock Oscillator Fail event occurs when the SmaRTClock Missing Clock
Detector is enabled and the SmaRTClock clock is below approximately 20 kHz. A SmaRTClock alarm
event occurs when the SmaRTClock Alarm is enabled and the SmaRTClock timer value matches the
ALARMn registers. The SmaRTClock can be configured as a reset source by writing a 1 to the RTC0RE
flag (RSTSRC.7). The SmaRTClock reset remains functional even when the device is in the low power
Suspend or Sleep mode. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.
18.9. Software Reset
Software may force a reset by writing a 1 to the SWRSF bit (RSTSRC.4). The SWRSF bit will read 1
following a software forced reset. The state of the RST pin is unaffected by this reset.

19. Clocking Sources
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include a programmable precision internal oscillator, an external oscillator
drive circuit, a low power internal oscillator, and a SmaRTClock real time clock oscillator. The precision
internal oscillator can be enabled/disabled and calibrated using the OSCICN and OSCICL registers, as
shown in Figure 19.1. The external oscillator can be configured using the OSCXCN register. The low
power internal oscillator is automatically enabled and disabled when selected and deselected as a clock
source. SmaRTClock operation is described in the SmaRTClock oscillator chapter.
The system clock (SYSCLK) can be derived from the precision internal oscillator, external oscillator, low
power internal oscillator, low power internal oscillator divided by 8, or SmaRTClock oscillator. The global
clock divider can generate a system clock that is 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128 times slower that the selected
input clock source. Oscillator electrical specifications can be found in the Electrical Specifications Chapter.

The proper way of changing the system clock when both the clock source and the clock divide value are
being changed is as follows:
If switching from a fast “undivided” clock to a slower “undivided” clock:
1. Change the clock divide value.
2. Poll for CLKRDY > 1.
3. Change the clock source.

19.1. Programmable Precision Internal Oscillator
All C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include a programmable precision internal oscillator that may be
selected as the system clock. OSCICL is factory calibrated to obtain a 24.5 MHz frequency. See Section
“4. Electrical Characteristics” on page 48 for complete oscillator specifications.
The precision oscillator supports a spread spectrum mode which modulates the output frequency in order
to reduce the EMI generated by the system. When enabled (SSE = 1), the oscillator output frequency is
modulated by a stepped triangle wave whose frequency is equal to the oscillator frequency divided by 384
(63.8 kHz using the factory calibration). The deviation from the nominal oscillator frequency is +0%, –1.6%,
and the step size is typically 0.26% of the nominal frequency. When using this mode, the typical average
oscillator frequency is lowered from 24.5 MHz to 24.3 MHz.
Important Note: The precision internal oscillator may potentially lock up after exiting Sleep mode. Systems using Sleep Mode should switch to the low power oscillator prior to entering Sleep Mode:
1. Switch the system clock to the low power oscillator (CLKSEL = 0x04).
2. Turn off the Precision Oscillator (OSCICN &= ~0x80).
3. Enter Sleep.
4. Exit Sleep.
5. Turn on the Precision Oscillator (OSCICN |= 0x80).
6. Switch the system clock to the Precision Oscillator (CLKSEL = 0x00).
19.2. Low Power Internal Oscillator
All C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include a low power internal oscillator that defaults as the system
clock after a system reset. The low power internal oscillator frequency is 20 MHz ± 10% and is automatically enabled when selected as the system clock and disabled when not in use. See Section “4. Electrical
Characteristics” on page 48 for complete oscillator specifications.
19.3. External Oscillator Drive Circuit
All C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include an external oscillator circuit that may drive an external crystal,
ceramic resonator, capacitor, or RC network. A CMOS clock may also provide a clock input. Figure 19.1
shows a block diagram of the four external oscillator options. The external oscillator is enabled and configured using the OSCXCN register.
The external oscillator output may be selected as the system clock or used to clock some of the digital
peripherals (e.g., Timers, PCA, etc.). See the data sheet chapters for each digital peripheral for details.
See Section “4. Electrical Characteristics” on page 48 for complete oscillator specifications.

If a crystal or ceramic resonator is used as the external oscillator, the crystal/resonator and a 10 MΩ resistor must be wired across the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins as shown in Figure 19.1, Option 1. Appropriate loading capacitors should be added to XTAL1 and XTAL2, and both pins should be configured for analog I/O
with the digital output drivers disabled.
Figure 19.2 shows the external oscillator circuit for a 20 MHz quartz crystal with a manufacturer recommended load capacitance of 12.5 pF. Loading capacitors are "in series" as seen by the crystal and "in parallel" with the stray capacitance of the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins. The total value of the each loading
capacitor and the stray capacitance of each XTAL pin should equal 12.5 pF x 2 = 25 pF. With a stray
capacitance of 10 pF per pin, the 15 pF capacitors yield an equivalent series capacitance of 12.5 pF
across the crystal.
Note: The recommended load capacitance depends upon the crystal and the manufacturer. Please refer to the crystal
data sheet when completing these calculations.

Figure 19.2. 25 MHz External Crystal Example
Important Note on External Crystals: Crystal oscillator circuits are quite sensitive to PCB layout. The
crystal should be placed as close as possible to the XTAL pins on the device. The traces should be as
short as possible and shielded with ground plane from any other traces which could introduce noise or
interference.
When using an external crystal, the external oscillator drive circuit must be configured by software for Crystal Oscillator Mode or Crystal Oscillator Mode with divide by 2 stage. The divide by 2 stage ensures that the
clock derived from the external oscillator has a duty cycle of 50%. The External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) must also be specified based on the crystal frequency. The selection should be based on
Table 19.1. For example, a 25 MHz crystal requires an XFCN setting of 111b.

When the crystal oscillator is first enabled, the external oscillator valid detector allows software to determine when the external system clock has stabilized. Switching to the external oscillator before the crystal
oscillator has stabilized can result in unpredictable behavior. The recommended procedure for starting the
crystal is as follows:
1. Configure XTAL1 and XTAL2 for analog I/O and disable the digital output drivers.
2. Configure and enable the external oscillator.
3. Poll for XTLVLD > 1.
4. Switch the system clock to the external oscillator.

19.3.2. External RC Mode
If an RC network is used as the external oscillator, the circuit should be configured as shown in
Figure 19.1, Option 2. The RC network should be added to XTAL2, and XTAL2 should be configured for
analog I/O with the digital output drivers disabled. XTAL1 is not affected in RC mode.
The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however for very small capacitors, the total capacitance
may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. The resistor should be no smaller than
10 kΩ. The oscillation frequency can be determined by the following equation:
3
1.23 × 10
f = ------------------------R×C
where
f = frequency of clock in MHzR = pull-up resistor value in kΩ
VDD = power supply voltage in VoltsC = capacitor value on the XTAL2 pin in pF
To determine the required External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register,
first select the RC network value to produce the desired frequency of oscillation. For example, if the frequency desired is 100 kHz, let R = 246 kΩ and C = 50 pF:
3
3
1.23 × 10
1.23 × 10
f = ------------------------- = ------------------------- = 100 kHz
R×C
246 × 50
where
f = frequency of clock in MHz
VDD = power supply voltage in Volts
R = pull-up resistor value in kΩ
C = capacitor value on the XTAL2 pin in pF
Referencing Table 19.2, the recommended XFCN setting is 010.

when oscillation has stabilized. The recommended procedure for starting the RC oscillator is as follows:
1. Configure XTAL2 for analog I/O and disable the digital output drivers.
2. Configure and enable the external oscillator.
3. Poll for XTLVLD > 1.
4. Switch the system clock to the external oscillator.

19.3.3. External Capacitor Mode
If a capacitor is used as the external oscillator, the circuit should be configured as shown in Figure 19.1,
Option 3. The capacitor should be added to XTAL2, and XTAL2 should be configured for analog I/O with
the digital output drivers disabled. XTAL1 is not affected in RC mode.
The capacitor should be no greater than 100 pF; however, for very small capacitors, the total capacitance
may be dominated by parasitic capacitance in the PCB layout. The oscillation frequency and the required
External Oscillator Frequency Control value (XFCN) in the OSCXCN Register can be determined by the
following equation:
KF
f = --------------------C × V DD
where
f = frequency of clock in MHzR = pull-up resistor value in kΩ
VDD = power supply voltage in VoltsC = capacitor value on the XTAL2 pin in pF
Below is an example of selecting the capacitor and finding the frequency of oscillation Assume VDD = 3.0 V
and f = 150 kHz:
KF
f = --------------------C × V DD
KF
0.150 MHz = ----------------C × 3.0
Since a frequency of roughly 150 kHz is desired, select the K Factor from Table 19.2 as KF = 22:
22
0.150 MHz = ----------------------C × 3.0 V
22
C = ----------------------------------------------0.150 MHz × 3.0 V
C = 48.8 pF
Therefore, the XFCN value to use in this example is 011 and C is approximately 50 pF.
The recommended startup procedure for C mode is the same as RC mode.
19.3.4. External CMOS Clock Mode
If an external CMOS clock is used as the external oscillator, the clock should be directly routed into XTAL2.
The XTAL2 pin should be configured as a digital input. XTAL1 is not used in external CMOS clock mode.
The external oscillator valid detector will always return zero when the external oscillator is configured to
External CMOS Clock mode.

19.4. Special Function Registers for Selecting and Configuring the System Clock
The clocking sources on C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices are enabled and configured using the OSCICN,
OSCICL, OSCXCN and the SmaRTClock internal registers. See Section “20. SmaRTClock (Real Time
Clock)” on page 197 for SmaRTClock register descriptions. The system clock source for the MCU can be
selected using the CLKSEL register. To minimize active mode current, the oneshot timer which sets Flash
read time should by bypassed when the system clock is greater than 10 MHz. See the FLSCL register
description for details.
The clock selected as the system clock can be divided by 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128. When switching
between two clock divide values, the transition may take up to 128 cycles of the undivided clock source.
The CLKRDY flag can be polled to determine when the new clock divide value has been applied. The clock
divider must be set to "divide by 1" when entering Suspend or Sleep Mode.
The system clock source may also be switched on-the-fly. The switchover takes effect after one clock
period of the slower oscillator.

20. SmaRTClock (Real Time Clock)
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include an ultra low power 32-bit SmaRTClock Peripheral (Real Time
Clock) with alarm. The SmaRTClock has a dedicated 32 kHz oscillator that can be configured for use with
or without a crystal. No external resistor or loading capacitors are required. The on-chip loading capacitors
are programmable to 16 discrete levels allowing compatibility with a wide range of crystals. The SmaRTClock can operate directly from a 1.8–3.6 V battery voltage and remains operational even when the device
goes into its lowest power down mode. The SmaRTClock output can be buffered and routed to a GPIO pin
to provide an accurate, low frequency clock to other devices while the MCU is in its lowest power down
mode (see “PMU0MD: Power Management Unit Mode” on page 170 for more details). C8051F99xC8051F98x devices also support an ultra low power internal LFO that reduces sleep mode current.
The SmaRTClock allows a maximum of 36 hour 32-bit independent time-keeping when used with a
32.768 kHz Watch Crystal. The SmaRTClock provides an Alarm and Missing SmaRTClock events, which
could be used as reset or wakeup sources. See Section “18. Reset Sources” on page 181 and Section
“15. Power Management” on page 162 for details on reset sources and low power mode wake-up sources,
respectively.

The SmaRTClock Interface consists of three registers: RTC0KEY, RTC0ADR, and RTC0DAT. These interface registers are located on the CIP-51’s SFR map and provide access to the SmaRTClock internal registers listed in Table 20.1. The SmaRTClock internal registers can only be accessed indirectly through the

20.1.2. Using RTC0ADR and RTC0DAT to Access SmaRTClock Internal Registers
The SmaRTClock internal registers can be read and written using RTC0ADR and RTC0DAT. The
RTC0ADR register selects the SmaRTClock internal register that will be targeted by subsequent reads or
writes. Recommended instruction timing is provided in this section. If the recommended instruction timing
is not followed, then BUSY (RTC0ADR.7) should be checked prior to each read or write operation to make
sure the SmaRTClock Interface is not busy performing the previous read or write operation. A SmaRTClock Write operation is initiated by writing to the RTC0DAT register. Below is an example of writing to a
SmaRTClock internal register.
1. Poll BUSY (RTC0ADR.7) until it returns 0 or follow recommended instruction timing.
2. Write 0x05 to RTC0ADR. This selects the internal RTC0CN register at SmaRTClock Address 0x05.
3. Write 0x00 to RTC0DAT. This operation writes 0x00 to the internal RTC0CN register.
A SmaRTClock Read operation is initiated by setting the SmaRTClock Interface Busy bit. This transfers
the contents of the internal register selected by RTC0ADR to RTC0DAT. The transferred data will remain in
RTC0DAT until the next read or write operation. Below is an example of reading a SmaRTClock internal
register.
1. Poll BUSY (RTC0ADR.7) until it returns 0 or follow recommended instruction timing.
2. Write 0x05 to RTC0ADR. This selects the internal RTC0CN register at SmaRTClock Address 0x05.
3. Write 1 to BUSY. This initiates the transfer of data from RTC0CN to RTC0DAT.
4. Poll BUSY (RTC0ADR.7) until it returns 0 or follow recommend instruction timing.
5. Read data from RTC0DAT. This data is a copy of the RTC0CN register.
Note: The RTC0ADR and RTC0DAT registers will retain their state upon a device reset.
20.1.3. RTC0ADR Short Strobe Feature
Reads and writes to indirect SmaRTClock registers normally take 7 system clock cycles. To minimize the
indirect register access time, the Short Strobe feature decreases the read and write access time to 6 system clocks. The Short Strobe feature is automatically enabled on reset and can be manually enabled/disabled using the SHORT (RTC0ADR.4) control bit.
Recommended Instruction Timing for a single register read with short strobe enabled:
mov RTC0ADR, #095h
nop
nop
nop
mov A, RTC0DAT
Recommended Instruction Timing for a single register write with short strobe enabled:
mov RTC0ADR, #095h

nop
20.1.4. SmaRTClock Interface Autoread Feature
When Autoread is enabled, each read from RTC0DAT initiates the next indirect read operation on the
SmaRTClock internal register selected by RTC0ADR. Software should set the BUSY bit once at the beginning of each series of consecutive reads. Software should follow recommended instruction timing or check
if the SmaRTClock Interface is busy prior to reading RTC0DAT. Autoread is enabled by setting AUTORD
(RTC0ADR.6) to logic 1.

Rev. 1.2
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
20.1.5. RTC0ADR Autoincrement Feature
For ease of reading and writing the 32-bit CAPTURE and ALARM values, RTC0ADR automatically increments after each read or write to a CAPTUREn or ALARMn register. This speeds up the process of setting
an alarm or reading the current SmaRTClock timer value. Autoincrement is always enabled.

20.2. SmaRTClock Clocking Sources
The SmaRTClock peripheral is clocked from its own timebase, independent of the system clock. The
SmaRTClock timebase can be derived from an external CMOS clock, the internal LFO, or the SmaRTClock oscillator circuit, which has two modes of operation: Crystal Mode, and Self-Oscillate Mode. The
oscillation frequency is 32.768 kHz in Crystal Mode and can be programmed in the range of 10 kHz to
40 kHz in Self-Oscillate Mode. The internal LFO frequency is 16.4 kHz ±20%. The frequency of the
SmaRTClock oscillator can be measured with respect to another oscillator using an on-chip timer. See
Section “25. Timers” on page 278 for more information on how this can be accomplished.
Note: The SmaRTClock timebase can be selected as the system clock and routed to a port pin. See Section
“19. Clocking Sources” on page 188 for information on selecting the system clock source and Section “21. Port
Input/Output” on page 215 for information on how to route the system clock to a port pin. The SmaRTClock
timebase can also be routed to a port pin while the device is in its ultra low power sleep mode. See the
PMU0MD register description for details.
20.2.1. Using the SmaRTClock Oscillator with a Crystal or External CMOS Clock
When using Crystal Mode, a 32.768 kHz crystal should be connected between XTAL3 and XTAL4. No
other external components are required. The following steps show how to start the SmaRTClock crystal
oscillator in software:
1. Configure the XTAL3 and XTAL4 pins for Analog I/O.
2. Set SmaRTClock to Crystal Mode (XMODE = 1).
3. Disable Automatic Gain Control (AGCEN) and enable Bias Doubling (BIASX2) for fast crystal startup.
4. Set the desired loading capacitance (RTC0XCF).
5. Enable power to the SmaRTClock oscillator circuit (RTC0EN = 1).
6. Wait 20 ms.
7. Poll the SmaRTClock Clock Valid Bit (CLKVLD) until the crystal oscillator stabilizes.
8. Poll the SmaRTClock Load Capacitance Ready Bit (LOADRDY) until the load capacitance reaches its
programmed value.
9. Enable Automatic Gain Control (AGCEN) and disable Bias Doubling (BIASX2) for maximum power
savings.
10.Enable the SmaRTClock missing clock detector.
11. Wait 2 ms.
12.Clear the PMU0CF wake-up source flags.
In Crystal Mode, the SmaRTClock oscillator may be driven by an external CMOS clock. The CMOS clock
should be applied to XTAL3. XTAL34 should be left floating. In this mode, the external CMOS clock is ac
coupled into the SmaRTClock and should have a minimum voltage swing of 400 mV. The CMOS clock signal voltage should not exceed VDD or drop below GND. Bias levels closer to VDD will result in lower I/O
power consumption because the XTAL3 pin has a built-in weak pull-up. The SmaRTClock oscillator should
be configured to its lowest bias setting with AGC disabled. The CLKVLD bit is indeterminate when using a
CMOS clock, however, the OSCFAIL bit may be checked 2 ms after SmaRTClock oscillator is powered on
to ensure that there is a valid clock on XTAL3.

20.2.2. Using the SmaRTClock Oscillator in Self-Oscillate Mode
When using Self-Oscillate Mode, the XTAL3 and XTAL4 pins are internally shorted together. The following
steps show how to configure SmaRTClock for use in Self-Oscillate Mode:
1. Set SmaRTClock to Self-Oscillate Mode (XMODE = 0).
2. Set the desired oscillation frequency:
For oscillation at about 20 kHz, set BIASX2 = 0.
For oscillation at about 40 kHz, set BIASX2 = 1.
3. The oscillator starts oscillating instantaneously.
4. Fine tune the oscillation frequency by adjusting the load capacitance (RTC0XCF).
20.2.3. Using the Low Frequency Oscillator (LFO)
The low frequency oscillator provides an ultra low power, on-chip clock source to the SmaRTClock. The
typical frequency of oscillation is 16.4 kHz ±20%. No external components are required to use the LFO and
the XTAL3 and XTAL4 pins do not need to be shorted together.
The following steps show how to configure SmaRTClock for use with the LFO:
1. Enable and select the Low Frequency Oscillator (LFOEN = 1).
2. The LFO starts oscillating instantaneously.
When the LFO is enabled, the SmaRTClock oscillator increments bit 1 of the 32-bit timer (instead of bit 0).
This effectively multiplies the LFO frequency by 2, making the RTC timebase behave as if a 32.768 kHz
crystal is connected at the output.

20.2.4. Programmable Load Capacitance
The programmable load capacitance has 16 values to support crystal oscillators with a wide range of recommended load capacitance. If Automatic Load Capacitance Stepping is enabled, the crystal load capacitors start at the smallest setting to allow a fast startup time, then slowly increase the capacitance until the
final programmed value is reached. The final programmed loading capacitor value is specified using the
LOADCAP bits in the RTC0XCF register. The LOADCAP setting specifies the amount of on-chip load
capacitance and does not include any stray PCB capacitance. Once the final programmed loading capacitor value is reached, the LOADRDY flag will be set by hardware to logic 1.
When using the SmaRTClock oscillator in Self-Oscillate mode, the programmable load capacitance can be
used to fine tune the oscillation frequency. In most cases, increasing the load capacitor value will result in
a decrease in oscillation frequency.Table 20.2 shows the crystal load capacitance for various settings of
LOADCAP.

20.2.5. Automatic Gain Control (Crystal Mode Only) and SmaRTClock Bias Doubling
Automatic Gain Control allows the SmaRTClock oscillator to trim the oscillation amplitude of a crystal in
order to achieve the lowest possible power consumption. Automatic Gain Control automatically detects
when the oscillation amplitude has reached a point where it safe to reduce the drive current, therefore, it
may be enabled during crystal startup. It is recommended to enable Automatic Gain Control in most systems which use the SmaRTClock oscillator in Crystal Mode. The following are recommended crystal specifications and operating conditions when Automatic Gain Control is enabled:
ESR < 50 kΩ
Load Capacitance < 10 pF
Supply Voltage < 3.0 V
Temperature > –20 °C
When using Automatic Gain Control, it is recommended to perform an oscillation robustness test to ensure
that the chosen crystal will oscillate under the worst case condition to which the system will be exposed.
The worst case condition that should result in the least robust oscillation is at the following system conditions: lowest temperature, highest supply voltage, highest ESR, highest load capacitance, and lowest bias
current (AGC enabled, Bias Double Disabled).
To perform the oscillation robustness test, the SmaRTClock oscillator should be enabled and selected as
the system clock source. Next, the SYSCLK signal should be routed to a port pin configured as a push-pull
digital output. The positive duty cycle of the output clock can be used as an indicator of oscillation robustness. As shown in Figure 20.2, duty cycles less than 55% indicate a robust oscillation. As the duty cycle
approaches 60%, oscillation becomes less reliable and the risk of clock failure increases. Increasing the
bias current (by disabling AGC) will always improve oscillation robustness and will reduce the output
clock’s duty cycle. This test should be performed at the worst case system conditions, as results at very
low temperatures or high supply voltage will vary from results taken at room temperature or low supply
voltage.

Figure 20.2. Interpreting Oscillation Robustness (Duty Cycle) Test Results
As an alternative to performing the oscillation robustness test, Automatic Gain Control may be disabled at
the cost of increased power consumption (approximately 200 nA). Disabling Automatic Gain Control will
provide the crystal oscillator with higher immunity against external factors which may lead to clock failure.
Automatic Gain Control must be disabled if using the SmaRTClock oscillator in self-oscillate mode.
Table 20.3 shows a summary of the oscillator bias settings. The SmaRTClock Bias Doubling feature allows
the self-oscillation frequency to be increased (almost doubled) and allows a higher crystal drive strength in
crystal mode. High crystal drive strength is recommended when the crystal is exposed to poor environmental conditions such as excessive moisture. SmaRTClock Bias Doubling is enabled by setting BIASX2
(RTC0XCN.5) to 1.

20.2.6. Missing SmaRTClock Detector
The missing SmaRTClock detector is a one-shot circuit enabled by setting MCLKEN (RTC0CN.6) to 1.
When the SmaRTClock Missing Clock Detector is enabled, OSCFAIL (RTC0CN.5) is set by hardware if
SmaRTClock oscillator remains high or low for more than 100 µs.
A SmaRTClock Missing Clock detector timeout can trigger an interrupt, wake the device from a low power
mode, or reset the device. See Section “13. Interrupt Handler” on page 138, Section “15. Power Management” on page 162, and Section “18. Reset Sources” on page 181 for more information.
Note: The SmaRTClock Missing Clock Detector should be disabled when making changes to the oscillator settings in
RTC0XCN.
20.2.7. SmaRTClock Oscillator Crystal Valid Detector
The SmaRTClock oscillator crystal valid detector is an oscillation amplitude detector circuit used during
crystal startup to determine when oscillation has started and is nearly stable. The output of this detector
can be read from the CLKVLD bit (RTX0XCN.4).
Notes:
1. The CLKVLD bit has a blanking interval of 2 ms. During the first 2 ms after turning on the crystal oscillator, the
output of CLKVLD is not valid.
2. This SmaRTClock crystal valid detector (CLKVLD) is not intended for detecting an oscillator failure. The
missing SmaRTClock detector (CLKFAIL) should be used for this purpose.
20.3. SmaRTClock Timer and Alarm Function
The SmaRTClock timer is a 32-bit counter that, when running (RTC0TR = 1), is incremented every
SmaRTClock oscillator cycle. The timer has an alarm function that can be set to generate an interrupt,
wake the device from a low power mode, or reset the device at a specific time. See Section “13. Interrupt
Handler” on page 138, Section “15. Power Management” on page 162, and Section “18. Reset Sources”
on page 181 for more information.
The SmaRTClock timer includes an Auto Reset feature, which automatically resets the timer to zero one
SmaRTClock cycle after the alarm signal is deasserted. When using Auto Reset, the Alarm match value
should always be set to 2 counts less than the desired match value. When using the LFO in combination
with Auto Reset, the right-justified Alarm match value should be set to 4 counts less than the desired
match value. Auto Reset can be enabled by writing a 1 to ALRM (RTC0CN.2).
20.3.1. Setting and Reading the SmaRTClock Timer Value
The 32-bit SmaRTClock timer can be set or read using the six CAPTUREn internal registers. Note that the
timer does not need to be stopped before reading or setting its value. The following steps can be used to
set the timer value:
1. Write the desired 32-bit set value to the CAPTUREn registers.
2. Write 1 to RTC0SET. This will transfer the contents of the CAPTUREn registers to the SmaRTClock
timer.
3. Operation is complete when RTC0SET is cleared to 0 by hardware.
The following steps can be used to read the current timer value:
1. Write 1 to RTC0CAP. This will transfer the contents of the timer to the CAPTUREn registers.
2. Poll RTC0CAP until it is cleared to 0 by hardware.
3. A snapshot of the timer value can be read from the CAPTUREn registers

20.3.2. Setting a SmaRTClock Alarm
The SmaRTClock alarm function compares the 32-bit value of SmaRTClock Timer to the value of the
ALARMn registers. An alarm event is triggered if the SmaRTClock timer is equal to the ALARMn registers.
If Auto Reset is enabled, the 32-bit timer will be cleared to zero one SmaRTClock cycle after the alarm
event.
The SmaRTClock alarm event can be configured to reset the MCU, wake it up from a low power mode, or
generate an interrupt. See Section “13. Interrupt Handler” on page 138, Section “15. Power Management”
on page 162, and Section “18. Reset Sources” on page 181 for more information.
The following steps can be used to set up a SmaRTClock Alarm:
1. Disable SmaRTClock Alarm Events (RTC0AEN = 0).
2. Set the ALARMn registers to the desired value.
3. Enable SmaRTClock Alarm Events (RTC0AEN = 1).
Notes:
1. The ALRM bit, which is used as the SmaRTClock Alarm Event flag, is cleared by disabling SmaRTClock Alarm
Events (RTC0AEN = 0).
2. If AutoReset is disabled, disabling (RTC0AEN = 0) then Re-enabling Alarm Events (RTC0AEN = 1) after a
SmaRTClock Alarm without modifying ALARMn registers will automatically schedule the next alarm after 2^32
SmaRTClock cycles (approximately 36 hours using a 32.768 kHz crystal).
3. The SmaRTClock Alarm Event flag will remain asserted for a maximum of one SmaRTClock cycle. See Section
“15. Power Management” on page 162 for information on how to capture a SmaRTClock Alarm event using a
flag which is not automatically cleared by hardware.

20.3.3. Software Considerations for using the SmaRTClock Timer and Alarm
The SmaRTClock timer and alarm have two operating modes to suit varying applications. The two modes
are described below:
Mode 1:
The first mode uses the SmaRTClock timer as a perpetual timebase which is never reset to zero. Every 36
hours, the timer is allowed to overflow without being stopped or disrupted. The alarm interval is software
managed and is added to the ALRMn registers by software after each alarm. This allows the alarm match
value to always stay ahead of the timer by one software managed interval. If software uses 32-bit unsigned
addition to increment the alarm match value, then it does not need to handle overflows since both the timer
and the alarm match value will overflow in the same manner.
This mode is ideal for applications which have a long alarm interval (e.g., 24 or 36 hours) and/or have a
need for a perpetual timebase. An example of an application that needs a perpetual timebase is one
whose wake-up interval is constantly changing. For these applications, software can keep track of the
number of timer overflows in a 16-bit variable, extending the 32-bit (36 hour) timer to a 48-bit (272 year)
perpetual timebase.
Mode 2:
The second mode uses the SmaRTClock timer as a general purpose up counter which is auto reset to zero
by hardware after each alarm. The alarm interval is managed by hardware and stored in the ALRMn registers. Software only needs to set the alarm interval once during device initialization. After each alarm, software should keep a count of the number of alarms that have occurred in order to keep track of time.
This mode is ideal for applications that require minimal software intervention and/or have a fixed alarm
interval. This mode is the most power efficient since it requires less CPU time per alarm.

21. Port Input/Output
Digital and analog resources are available through 16 or 17 I/O pins. Port pins are organized as three bytewide ports. Port pins P0.0–P1.7 can be defined as digital or analog I/O. Digital I/O pins can be assigned to
one of the internal digital resources or used as general purpose I/O (GPIO). Analog I/O pins are used by
the internal analog resources. P2.7 can be used as GPIO and is shared with the C2 Interface Data signal
(C2D). See Section “27. C2 Interface” on page 319 for more details.
The designer has complete control over which digital and analog functions are assigned to individual Port
pins, limited only by the number of physical I/O pins. This resource assignment flexibility is achieved
through the use of a Priority Crossbar Decoder. See Section 21.3 for more information on the Crossbar.
All Port I/Os can tolerate voltages up to the supply rail when used as digital inputs or open-drain outputs.
For Port I/Os configured as push-pull outputs, current is sourced from the VDD supply. Port I/Os used for
analog functions can operate up to the VDD supply voltage. See Section 21.1 for more information on Port
I/O operating modes and the electrical specifications chapter for detailed electrical specifications.

21.1. Port I/O Modes of Operation
Port pins P0.0–P1.7 use the Port I/O cell shown in Figure 21.2. Each Port I/O cell can be configured by
software for analog I/O or digital I/O using the PnMDIN registers. On reset, all Port I/O cells default to a digital high impedance state with weak pull-ups enabled.
21.1.1. Port Pins Configured for Analog I/O
Any pins to be used as Comparator or ADC input, oscillator input/output, or AGND, VREF, or Current Reference output should be configured for analog I/O (PnMDIN.n = 0). When a pin is configured for analog
I/O, its weak pullup and digital receiver are disabled. In most cases, software should also disable the digital
output drivers. Port pins configured for analog I/O will always read back a value of 0 regardless of the
actual voltage on the pin.
Configuring pins as analog I/O saves power and isolates the Port pin from digital interference. Port pins
configured as digital inputs may still be used by analog peripherals; however, this practice is not recommended and may result in measurement errors.
21.1.2. Port Pins Configured For Digital I/O
Any pins to be used by digital peripherals (UART, SPI, SMBus, etc.), external digital event capture functions, or as GPIO should be configured as digital I/O (PnMDIN.n = 1). For digital I/O pins, one of two output
modes (push-pull or open-drain) must be selected using the PnMDOUT registers.
Push-pull outputs (PnMDOUT.n = 1) drive the Port pad to the VDD or GND supply rails based on the output logic value of the Port pin. Open-drain outputs have the high side driver disabled; therefore, they only
drive the Port pad to GND when the output logic value is 0 and become high impedance inputs (both high
and low drivers turned off) when the output logic value is 1.
When a digital I/O cell is placed in the high impedance state, a weak pull-up transistor pulls the Port pad to
the VDD supply voltage to ensure the digital input is at a defined logic state. Weak pull-ups are disabled
when the I/O cell is driven to GND to minimize power consumption and may be globally disabled by setting

21.1.3. Interfacing Port I/O to 5 V Logic
All Port I/O have internal ESD protection diodes to prevent the pin voltage from exceeding the VDD supply.
The Port I/O pins are not 5V tolerant and require level translators to interface to 5V logic.
21.1.4. Increasing Port I/O Drive Strength
Port I/O output drivers support a high and low drive strength; the default is low drive strength. The drive
strength of a Port I/O can be configured using the PnDRV registers. See Section “4. Electrical Characteristics” on page 48 for the difference in output drive strength between the two modes.
21.2. Assigning Port I/O Pins to Analog and Digital Functions
Port I/O pins P0.0–P1.7 can be assigned to various analog, digital, and external interrupt functions. The
Port pins assuaged to analog functions should be configured for analog I/O and Port pins assuaged to digital or external interrupt functions should be configured for digital I/O.
21.2.1. Assigning Port I/O Pins to Analog Functions
Table 21.1 shows all available analog functions that need Port I/O assignments. Port pins selected for
these analog functions should have their digital drivers disabled (PnMDOUT.n = 0 and Port Latch =
1) and their corresponding bit in PnSKIP set to 1. This reserves the pin for use by the analog function
and does not allow it to be claimed by the Crossbar. Table 21.1 shows the potential mapping of Port I/O to
each analog function.

21.2.2. Assigning Port I/O Pins to Digital Functions
Any Port pins not assigned to analog functions may be assigned to digital functions or used as GPIO. Most
digital functions rely on the Crossbar for pin assignment; however, some digital functions bypass the
Crossbar in a manner similar to the analog functions listed above. Port pins used by these digital functions and any Port pins selected for use as GPIO should have their corresponding bit in PnSKIP set
to 1. Table 21.2 shows all available digital functions and the potential mapping of Port I/O to each digital
function.

21.2.3. Assigning Port I/O Pins to External Digital Event Capture Functions
External digital event capture functions can be used to trigger an interrupt or wake the device from a low
power mode when a transition occurs on a digital I/O pin. The digital event capture functions do not require
dedicated pins and will function on both GPIO pins (PnSKIP = 1) and pins in use by the Crossbar (PnSKIP
= 0). External digital even capture functions cannot be used on pins configured for analog I/O. Table 21.3
shows all available external digital event capture functions.

21.3. Priority Crossbar Decoder
The Priority Crossbar Decoder (Figure 21.3) assigns a priority to each I/O function, starting at the top with
UART0. When a digital resource is selected, the least-significant unassigned Port pin is assigned to that
resource (excluding UART0, which is always at pins 4 and 5). If a Port pin is assigned, the Crossbar skips
that pin when assigning the next selected resource. Additionally, the Crossbar will skip Port pins whose
associated bits in the PnSKIP registers are set. The PnSKIP registers allow software to skip Port pins that
are to be used for analog input, dedicated functions, or GPIO.
Important Note on Crossbar Configuration: If a Port pin is claimed by a peripheral without use of the
Crossbar, its corresponding PnSKIP bit should be set. This applies to the VREF signal, external oscillator
pins (XTAL1, XTAL2), the ADC’s external conversion start signal (CNVSTR), EMIF control signals, and any
selected ADC or Comparator inputs. The PnSKIP registers may also be used to skip pins to be used as
GPIO. The Crossbar skips selected pins as if they were already assigned, and moves to the next unassigned pin. Figure 21.3 shows all the possible pins available to each peripheral. Figure 21.4 shows the
Crossbar Decoder priority in an example configuration with no Port pins skipped. Figure 21.5 shows the
same Crossbar example with pins P0.2, P0.3, P1.0, and P1.1 skipped.

C8051F99x-C8051F98x
Registers XBR0, XBR1, and XBR2 are used to assign the digital I/O resources to the physical I/O Port
pins. Note that when the SMBus is selected, the Crossbar assigns both pins associated with the SMBus
(SDA and SCL); when either UART is selected, the Crossbar assigns both pins associated with the UART
(TX and RX). UART0 pin assignments are fixed for bootloading purposes: UART TX0 is always assigned
to P0.4; UART RX0 is always assigned to P0.5. Standard Port I/Os appear contiguously after the prioritized
functions have been assigned.
Notes:
1. The Crossbar must be enabled (XBARE = 1) before any Port pin is used as a digital output. Port output drivers
are disabled while the Crossbar is disabled.
2. When SMBus is selected in the Crossbar, the pins associated with SDA and SCL will automatically be forced
into open-drain output mode regardless of the PnMDOUT setting.
3. SPI0 can be operated in either 3-wire or 4-wire modes, depending on the state of the NSSMD1-NSSMD0 bits in
register SPI0CN. The NSS signal is only routed to a Port pin when 4-wire mode is selected. When SPI0 is
selected in the Crossbar, the SPI0 mode (3-wire or 4-wire) will affect the pinout of all digital functions lower in
priority than SPI0.
4. For given XBRn, PnSKIP, and SPInCN register settings, one can determine the I/O pin-out of the device using
Figure 21.3.
5. On 20-pin devices, P1.4 should be skipped in the Crossbar. It is not available as a device pin.

21.4. Port Match
Port match functionality allows system events to be triggered by a logic value change on P0 or P1. A software controlled value stored in the PnMAT registers specifies the expected or normal logic values of P0
and P1. A Port mismatch event occurs if the logic levels of the Port’s input pins no longer match the software controlled value. This allows Software to be notified if a certain change or pattern occurs on P0 or P1
input pins regardless of the XBRn settings.
The PnMASK registers can be used to individually select which P0 and P1 pins should be compared
against the PnMAT registers. A Port mismatch event is generated if (P0 & P0MASK) does not equal
(PnMAT & P0MASK) or if (P1 & P1MASK) does not equal (PnMAT & P1MASK).
A Port mismatch event may be used to generate an interrupt or wake the device from a low power mode.
See Section “13. Interrupt Handler” on page 138 and Section “15. Power Management” on page 162 for
more details on interrupt and wake-up sources.

21.5. Special Function Registers for Accessing and Configuring Port I/O
All Port I/O are accessed through corresponding special function registers (SFRs) that are both byte
addressable and bit addressable. When writing to a Port, the value written to the SFR is latched to maintain the output data value at each pin. When reading, the logic levels of the Port's input pins are returned
regardless of the XBRn settings (i.e., even when the pin is assigned to another signal by the Crossbar, the
Port register can always read its corresponding Port I/O pin). The exception to this is the execution of the
read-modify-write instructions that target a Port Latch register as the destination. The read-modify-write
instructions when operating on a Port SFR are the following: ANL, ORL, XRL, JBC, CPL, INC, DEC, DJNZ
and MOV, CLR or SETB, when the destination is an individual bit in a Port SFR. For these instructions, the
value of the latch register (not the pin) is read, modified, and written back to the SFR.
Each Port has a corresponding PnSKIP register which allows its individual Port pins to be assigned to digital functions or skipped by the Crossbar. All Port pins used for analog functions, GPIO, or dedicated digital
functions such as the EMIF should have their PnSKIP bit set to 1.
The Port input mode of the I/O pins is defined using the Port Input Mode registers (PnMDIN). Each Port
cell can be configured for analog or digital I/O. This selection is required even for the digital resources
selected in the XBRn registers, and is not automatic. The only exception to this is P2.7, which can only be
used for digital I/O.
The output driver characteristics of the I/O pins are defined using the Port Output Mode registers (PnMDOUT). Each Port Output driver can be configured as either open drain or push-pull. This selection is
required even for the digital resources selected in the XBRn registers, and is not automatic. The only
exception to this is the SMBus (SDA, SCL) pins, which are configured as open-drain regardless of the
PnMDOUT settings.
The drive strength of the output drivers are controlled by the Port Drive Strength (PnDRV) registers. The
default is low drive strength. See Section “4. Electrical Characteristics” on page 48 for the difference in output drive strength between the two modes.

22. SMBus
The SMBus I/O interface is a two-wire, bi-directional serial bus. The SMBus is compatible with the System
Management Bus Specification, version 1.1, and compatible with the I2C serial bus. Reads and writes to
the interface by the system controller are byte oriented with the SMBus interface autonomously controlling
the serial transfer of the data. Data can be transferred at up to 1/20th of the system clock as a master or
slave (this can be faster than allowed by the SMBus specification, depending on the system clock used). A
method of extending the clock-low duration is available to accommodate devices with different speed
capabilities on the same bus.
The SMBus interface may operate as a master and/or slave, and may function on a bus with multiple masters. The SMBus provides control of SDA (serial data), SCL (serial clock) generation and synchronization,
arbitration logic, and START/STOP control and generation. The SMBus peripheral can be fully driven by
software (i.e. software accepts/rejects slave addresses, and generates ACKs), or hardware slave address
recognition and automatic ACK generation can be enabled to minimize software overhead. A block diagram of the SMBus peripheral and the associated SFRs is shown in Figure 22.1.

It is assumed the reader is familiar with or has access to the following supporting documents:
The I2C-Bus and How to Use It (including specifications), Philips Semiconductor.
The I2C-Bus Specification—Version 2.0, Philips Semiconductor.
System Management Bus Specification—Version 1.1, SBS Implementers Forum.
22.2. SMBus Configuration
Figure 22.2 shows a typical SMBus configuration. The SMBus specification allows any recessive voltage
between 3.0 V and 5.0 V; different devices on the bus may operate at different voltage levels.
Note: The port pins on C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices are not 5 V tolerant, therefore, the device may only be used
in SMBus networks where the supply voltage does not exceed VDD.
The bi-directional SCL (serial clock) and SDA (serial data) lines must be connected to a positive power
supply voltage through a pullup resistor or similar circuit. Every device connected to the bus must have an
open-drain or open-collector output for both the SCL and SDA lines, so that both are pulled high (recessive
state) when the bus is free. The maximum number of devices on the bus is limited only by the requirement
that the rise and fall times on the bus not exceed 300 ns and 1000 ns, respectively.

22.3. SMBus Operation
Two types of data transfers are possible: data transfers from a master transmitter to an addressed slave
receiver (WRITE), and data transfers from an addressed slave transmitter to a master receiver (READ).
The master device initiates both types of data transfers and provides the serial clock pulses on SCL. The
SMBus interface may operate as a master or a slave, and multiple master devices on the same bus are
supported. If two or more masters attempt to initiate a data transfer simultaneously, an arbitration scheme
is employed with a single master always winning the arbitration. Note that it is not necessary to specify one
device as the Master in a system; any device who transmits a START and a slave address becomes the
master for the duration of that transfer.
A typical SMBus transaction consists of a START condition followed by an address byte (Bits7–1: 7-bit
slave address; Bit0: R/W direction bit), one or more bytes of data, and a STOP condition. Bytes that are
received (by a master or slave) are acknowledged (ACK) with a low SDA during a high SCL (see
Figure 22.3). If the receiving device does not ACK, the transmitting device will read a NACK (not acknowledge), which is a high SDA during a high SCL.
The direction bit (R/W) occupies the least-significant bit position of the address byte. The direction bit is set
to logic 1 to indicate a "READ" operation and cleared to logic 0 to indicate a "WRITE" operation.
All transactions are initiated by a master, with one or more addressed slave devices as the target. The
master generates the START condition and then transmits the slave address and direction bit. If the transaction is a WRITE operation from the master to the slave, the master transmits the data a byte at a time
waiting for an ACK from the slave at the end of each byte. For READ operations, the slave transmits the
data waiting for an ACK from the master at the end of each byte. At the end of the data transfer, the master
generates a STOP condition to terminate the transaction and free the bus. Figure 22.3 illustrates a typical
SMBus transaction.

22.3.1. Transmitter vs. Receiver
On the SMBus communications interface, a device is the “transmitter” when it is sending an address or
data byte to another device on the bus. A device is a “receiver” when an address or data byte is being sent
to it from another device on the bus. The transmitter controls the SDA line during the address or data byte.
After each byte of address or data information is sent by the transmitter, the receiver sends an ACK or
NACK bit during the ACK phase of the transfer, during which time the receiver controls the SDA line.
237
Rev. 1.2
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
22.3.2. Arbitration
A master may start a transfer only if the bus is free. The bus is free after a STOP condition or after the SCL
and SDA lines remain high for a specified time (see Section “22.3.5. SCL High (SMBus Free) Timeout” on
page 238). In the event that two or more devices attempt to begin a transfer at the same time, an arbitration scheme is employed to force one master to give up the bus. The master devices continue transmitting
until one attempts a HIGH while the other transmits a LOW. Since the bus is open-drain, the bus will be
pulled LOW. The master attempting the HIGH will detect a LOW SDA and lose the arbitration. The winning
master continues its transmission without interruption; the losing master becomes a slave and receives the
rest of the transfer if addressed. This arbitration scheme is non-destructive: one device always wins, and
no data is lost.
22.3.3. Clock Low Extension
SMBus provides a clock synchronization mechanism, similar to I2C, which allows devices with different
speed capabilities to coexist on the bus. A clock-low extension is used during a transfer in order to allow
slower slave devices to communicate with faster masters. The slave may temporarily hold the SCL line
LOW to extend the clock low period, effectively decreasing the serial clock frequency.
22.3.4. SCL Low Timeout
If the SCL line is held low by a slave device on the bus, no further communication is possible. Furthermore,
the master cannot force the SCL line high to correct the error condition. To solve this problem, the SMBus
protocol specifies that devices participating in a transfer must detect any clock cycle held low longer than
25 ms as a “timeout” condition. Devices that have detected the timeout condition must reset the communication no later than 10 ms after detecting the timeout condition.
When the SMBTOE bit in SMB0CF is set, Timer 3 is used to detect SCL low timeouts. Timer 3 is forced to
reload when SCL is high, and allowed to count when SCL is low. With Timer 3 enabled and configured to
overflow after 25 ms (and SMBTOE set), the Timer 3 interrupt service routine can be used to reset (disable
and re-enable) the SMBus in the event of an SCL low timeout.
22.3.5. SCL High (SMBus Free) Timeout
The SMBus specification stipulates that if the SCL and SDA lines remain high for more that 50 µs, the bus
is designated as free. When the SMBFTE bit in SMB0CF is set, the bus will be considered free if SCL and
SDA remain high for more than 10 SMBus clock source periods (as defined by the timer configured for the
SMBus clock source). If the SMBus is waiting to generate a Master START, the START will be generated
following this timeout. Note that a clock source is required for free timeout detection, even in a slave-only
implementation.

22.4. Using the SMBus
The SMBus can operate in both Master and Slave modes. The interface provides timing and shifting control for serial transfers; higher level protocol is determined by user software. The SMBus interface provides
the following application-independent features:
Byte-wise serial data transfers
Clock signal generation on SCL (Master Mode only) and SDA data synchronization
Timeout/bus error recognition, as defined by the SMB0CF configuration register
START/STOP timing, detection, and generation
Bus arbitration
Interrupt generation
Status information
Optional hardware recognition of slave address and automatic acknowledgement of address/data
SMBus interrupts are generated for each data byte or slave address that is transferred. When hardware
acknowledgement is disabled, the point at which the interrupt is generated depends on whether the hardware is acting as a data transmitter or receiver. When a transmitter (i.e. sending address/data, receiving an
ACK), this interrupt is generated after the ACK cycle so that software may read the received ACK value;
when receiving data (i.e., receiving address/data, sending an ACK), this interrupt is generated before the
ACK cycle so that software may define the outgoing ACK value. If hardware acknowledgement is enabled,
these interrupts are always generated after the ACK cycle. See Section 22.5 for more details on transmission sequences.
Interrupts are also generated to indicate the beginning of a transfer when a master (START generated), or
the end of a transfer when a slave (STOP detected). Software should read the SMB0CN (SMBus Control
register) to find the cause of the SMBus interrupt. The SMB0CN register is described in Section 22.4.2;
Table 22.5 provides a quick SMB0CN decoding reference.

22.4.1. SMBus Configuration Register
The SMBus Configuration register (SMB0CF) is used to enable the SMBus Master and/or Slave modes,
select the SMBus clock source, and select the SMBus timing and timeout options. When the ENSMB bit is
set, the SMBus is enabled for all master and slave events. Slave events may be disabled by setting the
INH bit. With slave events inhibited, the SMBus interface will still monitor the SCL and SDA pins; however,
the interface will NACK all received addresses and will not generate any slave interrupts. When the INH bit
is set, all slave events will be inhibited following the next START (interrupts will continue for the duration of
the current transfer).

The SMBCS1–0 bits select the SMBus clock source, which is used only when operating as a master or
when the Free Timeout detection is enabled. When operating as a master, overflows from the selected
source determine the absolute minimum SCL low and high times as defined in Equation 22.1. Note that the
selected clock source may be shared by other peripherals so long as the timer is left running at all times.
For example, Timer 1 overflows may generate the SMBus and UART baud rates simultaneously. Timer
configuration is covered in Section “25. Timers” on page 278.

The selected clock source should be configured to establish the minimum SCL High and Low times as per

other devices on the bus), the typical SMBus bit rate is approximated by Equation 22.2.

extended low by slower slave devices, or driven low by contending master devices). The bit rate when
operating as a master will never exceed the limits defined by equation Equation 22.1.

Setting the EXTHOLD bit extends the minimum setup and hold times for the SDA line. The minimum SDA
setup time defines the absolute minimum time that SDA is stable before SCL transitions from low-to-high.
The minimum SDA hold time defines the absolute minimum time that the current SDA value remains stable
after SCL transitions from high-to-low. EXTHOLD should be set so that the minimum setup and hold times
meet the SMBus Specification requirements of 250 ns and 300 ns, respectively. Table 22.2 shows the minimum setup and hold times for the two EXTHOLD settings. Setup and hold time extensions are typically
necessary when SYSCLK is above 10 MHz.

using software acknowledgement, the s/w delay occurs between the time SMB0DAT
or ACK is written and when SI is cleared. Note that if SI is cleared in the same write
that defines the outgoing ACK value, s/w delay is zero.
With the SMBTOE bit set, Timer 3 should be configured to overflow after 25 ms in order to detect SCL low
timeouts (see Section “22.3.4. SCL Low Timeout” on page 238). The SMBus interface will force Timer 3 to
reload while SCL is high, and allow Timer 3 to count when SCL is low. The Timer 3 interrupt service routine
should be used to reset SMBus communication by disabling and re-enabling the SMBus.
SMBus Free Timeout detection can be enabled by setting the SMBFTE bit. When this bit is set, the bus will
be considered free if SDA and SCL remain high for more than 10 SMBus clock source periods (see
Figure 22.4).

22.4.2. SMB0CN Control Register
SMB0CN is used to control the interface and to provide status information (see SFR Definition 22.2). The
higher four bits of SMB0CN (MASTER, TXMODE, STA, and STO) form a status vector that can be used to
jump to service routines. MASTER indicates whether a device is the master or slave during the current
transfer. TXMODE indicates whether the device is transmitting or receiving data for the current byte.
STA and STO indicate that a START and/or STOP has been detected or generated since the last SMBus
interrupt. STA and STO are also used to generate START and STOP conditions when operating as a master. Writing a 1 to STA will cause the SMBus interface to enter Master Mode and generate a START when
the bus becomes free (STA is not cleared by hardware after the START is generated). Writing a 1 to STO
while in Master Mode will cause the interface to generate a STOP and end the current transfer after the
next ACK cycle. If STO and STA are both set (while in Master Mode), a STOP followed by a START will be
generated.
The ARBLOST bit indicates that the interface has lost an arbitration. This may occur anytime the interface
is transmitting (master or slave). A lost arbitration while operating as a slave indicates a bus error condition. ARBLOST is cleared by hardware each time SI is cleared.
The SI bit (SMBus Interrupt Flag) is set at the beginning and end of each transfer, after each byte frame, or
when an arbitration is lost; see Table 22.3 for more details.
Important Note About the SI Bit: The SMBus interface is stalled while SI is set; thus SCL is held low, and
the bus is stalled until software clears SI.
22.4.2.1.Software ACK Generation
When the EHACK bit in register SMB0ADM is cleared to 0, the firmware on the device must detect incoming slave addresses and ACK or NACK the slave address and incoming data bytes. As a receiver, writing
the ACK bit defines the outgoing ACK value; as a transmitter, reading the ACK bit indicates the value
received during the last ACK cycle. ACKRQ is set each time a byte is received, indicating that an outgoing
ACK value is needed. When ACKRQ is set, software should write the desired outgoing value to the ACK
bit before clearing SI. A NACK will be generated if software does not write the ACK bit before clearing SI.
SDA will reflect the defined ACK value immediately following a write to the ACK bit; however SCL will
remain low until SI is cleared. If a received slave address is not acknowledged, further slave events will be
ignored until the next START is detected.
22.4.2.2.Hardware ACK Generation
When the EHACK bit in register SMB0ADM is set to 1, automatic slave address recognition and ACK generation is enabled. More detail about automatic slave address recognition can be found in Section 22.4.3.
As a receiver, the value currently specified by the ACK bit will be automatically sent on the bus during the
ACK cycle of an incoming data byte. As a transmitter, reading the ACK bit indicates the value received on
the last ACK cycle. The ACKRQ bit is not used when hardware ACK generation is enabled. If a received
slave address is NACKed by hardware, further slave events will be ignored until the next START is
detected, and no interrupt will be generated.
Table 22.3 lists all sources for hardware changes to the SMB0CN bits. Refer to Table 22.5 for SMBus status decoding using the SMB0CN register.

22.4.3. Hardware Slave Address Recognition
The SMBus hardware has the capability to automatically recognize incoming slave addresses and send an
ACK without software intervention. Automatic slave address recognition is enabled by setting the EHACK
bit in register SMB0ADM to 1. This will enable both automatic slave address recognition and automatic
hardware ACK generation for received bytes (as a master or slave). More detail on automatic hardware
ACK generation can be found in Section 22.4.2.2.
The registers used to define which address(es) are recognized by the hardware are the SMBus Slave
Address register (SFR Definition 22.3) and the SMBus Slave Address Mask register (SFR Definition 22.4).
A single address or range of addresses (including the General Call Address 0x00) can be specified using
these two registers. The most-significant seven bits of the two registers are used to define which
addresses will be ACKed. A 1 in bit positions of the slave address mask SLVM[6:0] enable a comparison
between the received slave address and the hardware’s slave address SLV[6:0] for those bits. A 0 in a bit
of the slave address mask means that bit will be treated as a “don’t care” for comparison purposes. In this
case, either a 1 or a 0 value are acceptable on the incoming slave address. Additionally, if the GC bit in
register SMB0ADR is set to 1, hardware will recognize the General Call Address (0x00). Table 22.4 shows
some example parameter settings and the slave addresses that will be recognized by hardware under
those conditions.

22.4.4. Data Register
The SMBus Data register SMB0DAT holds a byte of serial data to be transmitted or one that has just been
received. Software may safely read or write to the data register when the SI flag is set. Software should not
attempt to access the SMB0DAT register when the SMBus is enabled and the SI flag is cleared to logic 0,
as the interface may be in the process of shifting a byte of data into or out of the register.
Data in SMB0DAT is always shifted out MSB first. After a byte has been received, the first bit of received
data is located at the MSB of SMB0DAT. While data is being shifted out, data on the bus is simultaneously
being shifted in. SMB0DAT always contains the last data byte present on the bus. In the event of lost arbitration, the transition from master transmitter to slave receiver is made with the correct data or address in
SMB0DAT.

The SMB0DAT register contains a byte of data to be transmitted on the SMBus
serial interface or a byte that has just been received on the SMBus serial interface.
The CPU can read from or write to this register whenever the SI serial interrupt flag
(SMB0CN.0) is set to logic 1. The serial data in the register remains stable as long
as the SI flag is set. When the SI flag is not set, the system may be in the process
of shifting data in/out and the CPU should not attempt to access this register.

22.5. SMBus Transfer Modes
The SMBus interface may be configured to operate as master and/or slave. At any particular time, it will be
operating in one of the following four modes: Master Transmitter, Master Receiver, Slave Transmitter, or
Slave Receiver. The SMBus interface enters Master Mode any time a START is generated, and remains in
Master Mode until it loses an arbitration or generates a STOP. An SMBus interrupt is generated at the end
of all SMBus byte frames. Note that the position of the ACK interrupt when operating as a receiver
depends on whether hardware ACK generation is enabled. As a receiver, the interrupt for an ACK occurs
before the ACK with hardware ACK generation disabled, and after the ACK when hardware ACK generation is enabled. As a transmitter, interrupts occur after the ACK, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation is enabled or not.
22.5.1. Write Sequence (Master)
During a write sequence, an SMBus master writes data to a slave device. The master in this transfer will be
a transmitter during the address byte, and a transmitter during all data bytes. The SMBus interface generates the START condition and transmits the first byte containing the address of the target slave and the
data direction bit. In this case the data direction bit (R/W) will be logic 0 (WRITE). The master then transmits one or more bytes of serial data. After each byte is transmitted, an acknowledge bit is generated by
the slave. The transfer is ended when the STO bit is set and a STOP is generated. Note that the interface
will switch to Master Receiver Mode if SMB0DAT is not written following a Master Transmitter interrupt.
Figure 22.5 shows a typical master write sequence. Two transmit data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes may be transmitted. Notice that all of the ‘data byte transferred’ interrupts occur after the ACK
cycle in this mode, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation is enabled.

22.5.2. Read Sequence (Master)
During a read sequence, an SMBus master reads data from a slave device. The master in this transfer will
be a transmitter during the address byte, and a receiver during all data bytes. The SMBus interface generates the START condition and transmits the first byte containing the address of the target slave and the
data direction bit. In this case the data direction bit (R/W) will be logic 1 (READ). Serial data is then
received from the slave on SDA while the SMBus outputs the serial clock. The slave transmits one or more
bytes of serial data.
If hardware ACK generation is disabled, the ACKRQ is set to 1 and an interrupt is generated after each
received byte. Software must write the ACK bit at that time to ACK or NACK the received byte.
With hardware ACK generation enabled, the SMBus hardware will automatically generate the ACK/NACK,
and then post the interrupt. It is important to note that the appropriate ACK or NACK value should be
set up by the software prior to receiving the byte when hardware ACK generation is enabled.
Writing a 1 to the ACK bit generates an ACK; writing a 0 generates a NACK. Software should write a 0 to
the ACK bit for the last data transfer, to transmit a NACK. The interface exits Master Receiver Mode after
the STO bit is set and a STOP is generated. The interface will switch to Master Transmitter Mode if SMB0DAT is written while an active Master Receiver. Figure 22.6 shows a typical master read sequence. Two
received data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes may be received. Notice that the ‘data byte
transferred’ interrupts occur at different places in the sequence, depending on whether hardware ACK generation is enabled. The interrupt occurs before the ACK with hardware ACK generation disabled, and after
the ACK when hardware ACK generation is enabled.

22.5.3. Write Sequence (Slave)
During a write sequence, an SMBus master writes data to a slave device. The slave in this transfer will be
a receiver during the address byte, and a receiver during all data bytes. When slave events are enabled
(INH = 0), the interface enters Slave Receiver Mode when a START followed by a slave address and direction bit (WRITE in this case) is received. If hardware ACK generation is disabled, upon entering Slave
Receiver Mode, an interrupt is generated and the ACKRQ bit is set. The software must respond to the
received slave address with an ACK, or ignore the received slave address with a NACK. If hardware ACK
generation is enabled, the hardware will apply the ACK for a slave address which matches the criteria set
up by SMB0ADR and SMB0ADM. The interrupt will occur after the ACK cycle.
If the received slave address is ignored (by software or hardware), slave interrupts will be inhibited until the
next START is detected. If the received slave address is acknowledged, zero or more data bytes are
received.
If hardware ACK generation is disabled, the ACKRQ is set to 1 and an interrupt is generated after each
received byte. Software must write the ACK bit at that time to ACK or NACK the received byte.
With hardware ACK generation enabled, the SMBus hardware will automatically generate the ACK/NACK,
and then post the interrupt. It is important to note that the appropriate ACK or NACK value should be
set up by the software prior to receiving the byte when hardware ACK generation is enabled.
The interface exits Slave Receiver Mode after receiving a STOP. Note that the interface will switch to Slave
Transmitter Mode if SMB0DAT is written while an active Slave Receiver. Figure 22.7 shows a typical slave
write sequence. Two received data bytes are shown, though any number of bytes may be received. Notice
that the ‘data byte transferred’ interrupts occur at different places in the sequence, depending on whether
hardware ACK generation is enabled. The interrupt occurs before the ACK with hardware ACK generation
disabled, and after the ACK when hardware ACK generation is enabled.

22.5.4. Read Sequence (Slave)
During a read sequence, an SMBus master reads data from a slave device. The slave in this transfer will
be a receiver during the address byte, and a transmitter during all data bytes. When slave events are
enabled (INH = 0), the interface enters Slave Receiver Mode (to receive the slave address) when a START
followed by a slave address and direction bit (READ in this case) is received. If hardware ACK generation
is disabled, upon entering Slave Receiver Mode, an interrupt is generated and the ACKRQ bit is set. The
software must respond to the received slave address with an ACK, or ignore the received slave address
with a NACK. If hardware ACK generation is enabled, the hardware will apply the ACK for a slave address
which matches the criteria set up by SMB0ADR and SMB0ADM. The interrupt will occur after the ACK
cycle.
If the received slave address is ignored (by software or hardware), slave interrupts will be inhibited until the
next START is detected. If the received slave address is acknowledged, zero or more data bytes are transmitted. If the received slave address is acknowledged, data should be written to SMB0DAT to be transmitted. The interface enters Slave Transmitter Mode, and transmits one or more bytes of data. After each byte
is transmitted, the master sends an acknowledge bit; if the acknowledge bit is an ACK, SMB0DAT should
be written with the next data byte. If the acknowledge bit is a NACK, SMB0DAT should not be written to
before SI is cleared (Note: an error condition may be generated if SMB0DAT is written following a received
NACK while in Slave Transmitter Mode). The interface exits Slave Transmitter Mode after receiving a
STOP. Note that the interface will switch to Slave Receiver Mode if SMB0DAT is not written following a
Slave Transmitter interrupt. Figure 22.8 shows a typical slave read sequence. Two transmitted data bytes
are shown, though any number of bytes may be transmitted. Notice that all of the ‘data byte transferred’
interrupts occur after the ACK cycle in this mode, regardless of whether hardware ACK generation is
enabled.

22.6. SMBus Status Decoding
The current SMBus status can be easily decoded using the SMB0CN register. The appropriate actions to
take in response to an SMBus event depend on whether hardware slave address recognition and ACK
generation is enabled or disabled. Table 22.5 describes the typical actions when hardware slave address
recognition and ACK generation is disabled. Table 22.6 describes the typical actions when hardware slave
address recognition and ACK generation is enabled. In the tables, STATUS VECTOR refers to the four
upper bits of SMB0CN: MASTER, TXMODE, STA, and STO. The shown response options are only the typical responses; application-specific procedures are allowed as long as they conform to the SMBus specification. Highlighted responses are allowed by hardware but do not conform to the SMBus specification.

23. UART0
UART0 is an asynchronous, full duplex serial port offering modes 1 and 3 of the standard 8051 UART.
Enhanced baud rate support allows a wide range of clock sources to generate standard baud rates (details
in Section “23.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation” on page 258). Received data buffering allows UART0
to start reception of a second incoming data byte before software has finished reading the previous data
byte.
UART0 has two associated SFRs: Serial Control Register 0 (SCON0) and Serial Data Buffer 0 (SBUF0).
The single SBUF0 location provides access to both transmit and receive registers. Writes to SBUF0
always access the Transmit register. Reads of SBUF0 always access the buffered Receive register;
it is not possible to read data from the Transmit register.
With UART0 interrupts enabled, an interrupt is generated each time a transmit is completed (TI0 is set in
SCON0), or a data byte has been received (RI0 is set in SCON0). The UART0 interrupt flags are not
cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine. They must be cleared manually
by software, allowing software to determine the cause of the UART0 interrupt (transmit complete or receive
complete).

23.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation
The UART0 baud rate is generated by Timer 1 in 8-bit auto-reload mode. The TX clock is generated by
TL1; the RX clock is generated by a copy of TL1 (shown as RX Timer in Figure 23.2), which is not useraccessible. Both TX and RX Timer overflows are divided by two to generate the TX and RX baud rates.
The RX Timer runs when Timer 1 is enabled, and uses the same reload value (TH1). However, an
RX Timer reload is forced when a START condition is detected on the RX pin. This allows a receive to
begin any time a START is detected, independent of the TX Timer state.

Timer 1 should be configured for Mode 2, 8-bit auto-reload (see Section “25.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit
Counter/Timer with Auto-Reload” on page 282). The Timer 1 reload value should be set so that overflows
will occur at two times the desired UART baud rate frequency. Note that Timer 1 may be clocked by one of
six sources: SYSCLK, SYSCLK / 4, SYSCLK / 12, SYSCLK / 48, the external oscillator clock / 8, or an
external input T1. For any given Timer 1 clock source, the UART0 baud rate is determined by
Equation 23.1-A and Equation 23.1-B.

23.2.1. 8-Bit UART
8-Bit UART mode uses a total of 10 bits per data byte: one start bit, eight data bits (LSB first), and one stop
bit. Data are transmitted LSB first from the TX0 pin and received at the RX0 pin. On receive, the eight data
bits are stored in SBUF0 and the stop bit goes into RB80 (SCON0.2).
Data transmission begins when software writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Transmit Interrupt Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data reception can begin any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to logic 1. After the stop bit is
received, the data byte will be loaded into the SBUF0 receive register if the following conditions are met:
RI0 must be logic 0, and if MCE0 is logic 1, the stop bit must be logic 1. In the event of a receive data overrun, the first received 8 bits are latched into the SBUF0 receive register and the following overrun data bits
are lost.
If these conditions are met, the eight bits of data is stored in SBUF0, the stop bit is stored in RB80 and the
RI0 flag is set. If these conditions are not met, SBUF0 and RB80 will not be loaded and the RI0 flag will not
be set. An interrupt will occur if enabled when either TI0 or RI0 is set.

23.2.2. 9-Bit UART
9-bit UART mode uses a total of eleven bits per data byte: a start bit, 8 data bits (LSB first), a programmable ninth data bit, and a stop bit. The state of the ninth transmit data bit is determined by the value in TB80
(SCON0.3), which is assigned by user software. It can be assigned the value of the parity flag (bit P in register PSW) for error detection, or used in multiprocessor communications. On receive, the ninth data bit
goes into RB80 (SCON0.2) and the stop bit is ignored.
Data transmission begins when an instruction writes a data byte to the SBUF0 register. The TI0 Transmit
Interrupt Flag (SCON0.1) is set at the end of the transmission (the beginning of the stop-bit time). Data
reception can begin any time after the REN0 Receive Enable bit (SCON0.4) is set to 1. After the stop bit is
received, the data byte will be loaded into the SBUF0 receive register if the following conditions are met:
(1) RI0 must be logic 0, and (2) if MCE0 is logic 1, the 9th bit must be logic 1 (when MCE0 is logic 0, the
state of the ninth data bit is unimportant). If these conditions are met, the eight bits of data are stored in
SBUF0, the ninth bit is stored in RB80, and the RI0 flag is set to 1. If the above conditions are not met,
SBUF0 and RB80 will not be loaded and the RI0 flag will not be set to 1. A UART0 interrupt will occur if
enabled when either TI0 or RI0 is set to 1.

23.3. Multiprocessor Communications
9-Bit UART mode supports multiprocessor communication between a master processor and one or more
slave processors by special use of the ninth data bit. When a master processor wants to transmit to one or
more slaves, it first sends an address byte to select the target(s). An address byte differs from a data byte
in that its ninth bit is logic 1; in a data byte, the ninth bit is always set to logic 0.
Setting the MCE0 bit (SCON0.5) of a slave processor configures its UART such that when a stop bit is
received, the UART will generate an interrupt only if the ninth bit is logic 1 (RB80 = 1) signifying an address
byte has been received. In the UART interrupt handler, software will compare the received address with
the slave's own assigned 8-bit address. If the addresses match, the slave will clear its MCE0 bit to enable
interrupts on the reception of the following data byte(s). Slaves that weren't addressed leave their MCE0
bits set and do not generate interrupts on the reception of the following data bytes, thereby ignoring the
data. Once the entire message is received, the addressed slave resets its MCE0 bit to ignore all transmissions until it receives the next address byte.
Multiple addresses can be assigned to a single slave and/or a single address can be assigned to multiple
slaves, thereby enabling "broadcast" transmissions to more than one slave simultaneously. The master
processor can be configured to receive all transmissions or a protocol can be implemented such that the
master/slave role is temporarily reversed to enable half-duplex transmission between the original master
and slave(s).

24. Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI0)
The Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI0) provides access to a flexible, full-duplex synchronous
serial bus. SPI0 can operate as a master or slave device in both 3-wire or 4-wire modes, and supports
multiple masters and slaves on a single SPI bus. The slave-select (NSS) signal can be configured as an
input to select SPI0 in slave mode, or to disable Master Mode operation in a multi-master environment,
avoiding contention on the SPI bus when more than one master attempts simultaneous data transfers.
NSS can also be configured as a chip-select output in master mode, or disabled for 3-wire operation.
Additional general purpose port I/O pins can be used to select multiple slave devices in master mode.

24.1. Signal Descriptions
The four signals used by SPI0 (MOSI, MISO, SCK, NSS) are described below.
24.1.1. Master Out, Slave In (MOSI)
The master-out, slave-in (MOSI) signal is an output from a master device and an input to slave devices. It
is used to serially transfer data from the master to the slave. This signal is an output when SPI0 is
operating as a master and an input when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred most-significant
bit first. When configured as a master, MOSI is driven by the MSB of the shift register in both 3- and 4-wire
mode.
24.1.2. Master In, Slave Out (MISO)
The master-in, slave-out (MISO) signal is an output from a slave device and an input to the master device.
It is used to serially transfer data from the slave to the master. This signal is an input when SPI0 is
operating as a master and an output when SPI0 is operating as a slave. Data is transferred mostsignificant bit first. The MISO pin is placed in a high-impedance state when the SPI module is disabled and
when the SPI operates in 4-wire mode as a slave that is not selected. When acting as a slave in 3-wire
mode, MISO is always driven by the MSB of the shift register.
24.1.3. Serial Clock (SCK)
The serial clock (SCK) signal is an output from the master device and an input to slave devices. It is used
to synchronize the transfer of data between the master and slave on the MOSI and MISO lines. SPI0
generates this signal when operating as a master. The SCK signal is ignored by a SPI slave when the
slave is not selected (NSS = 1) in 4-wire slave mode.
24.1.4. Slave Select (NSS)
The function of the slave-select (NSS) signal is dependent on the setting of the NSSMD1 and NSSMD0
bits in the SPI0CN register. There are three possible modes that can be selected with these bits:
1. NSSMD[1:0] = 00: 3-Wire Master or 3-Wire Slave Mode: SPI0 operates in 3-wire mode, and NSS is
disabled. When operating as a slave device, SPI0 is always selected in 3-wire mode. Since no select
signal is present, SPI0 must be the only slave on the bus in 3-wire mode. This is intended for point-topoint communication between a master and one slave.
2. NSSMD[1:0] = 01: 4-Wire Slave or Multi-Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is
enabled as an input. When operating as a slave, NSS selects the SPI0 device. When operating as a
master, a 1-to-0 transition of the NSS signal disables the master function of SPI0 so that multiple
master devices can be used on the same SPI bus.
3. NSSMD[1:0] = 1x: 4-Wire Master Mode: SPI0 operates in 4-wire mode, and NSS is enabled as an
output. The setting of NSSMD0 determines what logic level the NSS pin will output. This configuration
should only be used when operating SPI0 as a master device.
See Figure 24.2, Figure 24.3, and Figure 24.4 for typical connection diagrams of the various operational
modes. Note that the setting of NSSMD bits affects the pinout of the device. When in 3-wire master or
3-wire slave mode, the NSS pin will not be mapped by the crossbar. In all other modes, the NSS signal will
be mapped to a pin on the device. See Section “21. Port Input/Output” on page 215 for general purpose
port I/O and crossbar information.
24.2. SPI0 Master Mode Operation
A SPI master device initiates all data transfers on a SPI bus. SPI0 is placed in master mode by setting the
Master Enable flag (MSTEN, SPI0CN.6). Writing a byte of data to the SPI0 data register (SPI0DAT) when
in master mode writes to the transmit buffer. If the SPI shift register is empty, the byte in the transmit buffer
is moved to the shift register, and a data transfer begins. The SPI0 master immediately shifts out the data
serially on the MOSI line while providing the serial clock on SCK. The SPIF (SPI0CN.7) flag is set to logic
Rev. 1.2
266
C8051F99x-C8051F98x
1 at the end of the transfer. If interrupts are enabled, an interrupt request is generated when the SPIF flag
is set. While the SPI0 master transfers data to a slave on the MOSI line, the addressed SPI slave device
simultaneously transfers the contents of its shift register to the SPI master on the MISO line in a full-duplex
operation. Therefore, the SPIF flag serves as both a transmit-complete and receive-data-ready flag. The
data byte received from the slave is transferred MSB-first into the master's shift register. When a byte is
fully shifted into the register, it is moved to the receive buffer where it can be read by the processor by
reading SPI0DAT.
When configured as a master, SPI0 can operate in one of three different modes: multi-master mode, 3-wire
single-master mode, and 4-wire single-master mode. The default, multi-master mode is active when
NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 1. In this mode, NSS is an input to the device, and
is used to disable the master SPI0 when another master is accessing the bus. When NSS is pulled low in
this mode, MSTEN (SPI0CN.6) and SPIEN (SPI0CN.0) are set to 0 to disable the SPI master device, and
a Mode Fault is generated (MODF, SPI0CN.5 = 1). Mode Fault will generate an interrupt if enabled. SPI0
must be manually re-enabled in software under these circumstances. In multi-master systems, devices will
typically default to being slave devices while they are not acting as the system master device. In multimaster mode, slave devices can be addressed individually (if needed) using general-purpose I/O pins.
Figure 24.2 shows a connection diagram between two master devices in multiple-master mode.
3-wire single-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 0. In this
mode, NSS is not used, and is not mapped to an external port pin through the crossbar. Any slave devices
that must be addressed in this mode should be selected using general-purpose I/O pins. Figure 24.3
shows a connection diagram between a master device in 3-wire master mode and a slave device.
4-wire single-master mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 1. In this mode, NSS is configured as an
output pin, and can be used as a slave-select signal for a single SPI device. In this mode, the output value
of NSS is controlled (in software) with the bit NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2). Additional slave devices can be
addressed using general-purpose I/O pins. Figure 24.4 shows a connection diagram for a master device in
4-wire master mode and two slave devices.

24.3. SPI0 Slave Mode Operation
When SPI0 is enabled and not configured as a master, it will operate as a SPI slave. As a slave, bytes are
shifted in through the MOSI pin and out through the MISO pin by a master device controlling the SCK
signal. A bit counter in the SPI0 logic counts SCK edges. When 8 bits have been shifted through the shift
register, the SPIF flag is set to logic 1, and the byte is copied into the receive buffer. Data is read from the
receive buffer by reading SPI0DAT. A slave device cannot initiate transfers. Data to be transferred to the
master device is pre-loaded into the shift register by writing to SPI0DAT. Writes to SPI0DAT are doublebuffered, and are placed in the transmit buffer first. If the shift register is empty, the contents of the transmit
buffer will immediately be transferred into the shift register. When the shift register already contains data,
the SPI will load the shift register with the transmit buffer’s contents after the last SCK edge of the next (or
current) SPI transfer.
When configured as a slave, SPI0 can be configured for 4-wire or 3-wire operation. The default, 4-wire
slave mode, is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 1. In 4-wire mode, the
NSS signal is routed to a port pin and configured as a digital input. SPI0 is enabled when NSS is logic 0,
and disabled when NSS is logic 1. The bit counter is reset on a falling edge of NSS. Note that the NSS
signal must be driven low at least 2 system clocks before the first active edge of SCK for each byte
transfer. Figure 24.4 shows a connection diagram between two slave devices in 4-wire slave mode and a
master device.
3-wire slave mode is active when NSSMD1 (SPI0CN.3) = 0 and NSSMD0 (SPI0CN.2) = 0. NSS is not
used in this mode, and is not mapped to an external port pin through the crossbar. Since there is no way of
uniquely addressing the device in 3-wire slave mode, SPI0 must be the only slave device present on the
bus. It is important to note that in 3-wire slave mode there is no external means of resetting the bit counter
that determines when a full byte has been received. The bit counter can only be reset by disabling and reenabling SPI0 with the SPIEN bit. Figure 24.3 shows a connection diagram between a slave device in 3wire slave mode and a master device.

24.4. SPI0 Interrupt Sources
When SPI0 interrupts are enabled, the following four flags will generate an interrupt when they are set to
logic 1:
All of the following bits must be cleared by software.
The SPI Interrupt Flag, SPIF (SPI0CN.7) is set to logic 1 at the end of each byte transfer. This flag can
occur in all SPI0 modes.
The Write Collision Flag, WCOL (SPI0CN.6) is set to logic 1 if a write to SPI0DAT is attempted when
the transmit buffer has not been emptied to the SPI shift register. When this occurs, the write to
SPI0DAT will be ignored, and the transmit buffer will not be written.This flag can occur in all SPI0
modes.
The Mode Fault Flag MODF (SPI0CN.5) is set to logic 1 when SPI0 is configured as a master, and for
multi-master mode and the NSS pin is pulled low. When a Mode Fault occurs, the MSTEN and SPIEN
bits in SPI0CN are set to logic 0 to disable SPI0 and allow another master device to access the bus.
The Receive Overrun Flag RXOVRN (SPI0CN.4) is set to logic 1 when configured as a slave, and a
transfer is completed and the receive buffer still holds an unread byte from a previous transfer. The new
byte is not transferred to the receive buffer, allowing the previously received data byte to be read. The
data byte which caused the overrun is lost.
24.5. Serial Clock Phase and Polarity
Four combinations of serial clock phase and polarity can be selected using the clock control bits in the
SPI0 Configuration Register (SPI0CFG). The CKPHA bit (SPI0CFG.5) selects one of two clock phases
(edge used to latch the data). The CKPOL bit (SPI0CFG.4) selects between an active-high or active-low
clock. Both master and slave devices must be configured to use the same clock phase and polarity. SPI0
should be disabled (by clearing the SPIEN bit, SPI0CN.0) when changing the clock phase or polarity. The
clock and data line relationships for master mode are shown in Figure 24.5. For slave mode, the clock and
data relationships are shown in Figure 24.6 and Figure 24.7. Note that CKPHA should be set to 0 on both
the master and slave SPI when communicating between two Silicon Labs C8051 devices.
The SPI0 Clock Rate Register (SPI0CKR) as shown in SFR Definition 24.3 controls the master mode
serial clock frequency. This register is ignored when operating in slave mode. When the SPI is configured
as a master, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) is one-half the system clock frequency or 12.5 MHz,
whichever is slower. When the SPI is configured as a slave, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) for
full-duplex operation is 1/10 the system clock frequency, provided that the master issues SCK, NSS (in 4wire slave mode), and the serial input data synchronously with the slave’s system clock. If the master
issues SCK, NSS, and the serial input data asynchronously, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec)
must be less than 1/10 the system clock frequency. In the special case where the master only wants to
transmit data to the slave and does not need to receive data from the slave (i.e. half-duplex operation), the
SPI slave can receive data at a maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) of 1/4 the system clock frequency.
This is provided that the master issues SCK, NSS, and the serial input data synchronously with the slave’s
system clock.

SRMT
Shift Register Empty (valid in slave mode only).
This bit will be set to logic 1 when all data has been transferred in/out of the shift
register, and there is no new information available to read from the transmit buffer
or write to the receive buffer. It returns to logic 0 when a data byte is transferred to
the shift register from the transmit buffer or by a transition on SCK. SRMT = 1 when
in Master Mode.

RXBMT
Receive Buffer Empty (valid in slave mode only).
This bit will be set to logic 1 when the receive buffer has been read and contains no
new information. If there is new information available in the receive buffer that has
not been read, this bit will return to logic 0. RXBMT = 1 when in Master Mode.
Note: In slave mode, data on MOSI is sampled in the center of each data bit. In master mode, data on MISO is
sampled one SYSCLK before the end of each data bit, to provide maximum settling time for the slave device.

25. Timers
Each MCU includes four counter/timers: two are 16-bit counter/timers compatible with those found in the
standard 8051, and two are 16-bit auto-reload timer for use with the ADC, SMBus, or for general purpose
use. These timers can be used to measure time intervals, count external events and generate periodic
interrupt requests. Timer 0 and Timer 1 are nearly identical and have four primary modes of operation.
Timer 2 and Timer 3 offer 16-bit and split 8-bit timer functionality with auto-reload. Additionally, Timer 2 and
Timer 3 have a Capture Mode that can be used to measure the SmaRTClock or a Comparator period with
respect to another oscillator. This is particularly useful when using Capacitive Touch Switches.

Timer 2 Modes
Timer 3 Modes
16-bit timer with auto-reload
16-bit timer with auto-reload
Two 8-bit timers with auto-reload
Two 8-bit timers with auto-reload
Timers 0 and 1 may be clocked by one of five sources, determined by the Timer Mode Select bits (T1M–
T0M) and the Clock Scale bits (SCA1–SCA0). The Clock Scale bits define a pre-scaled clock from which
Timer 0 and/or Timer 1 may be clocked (See SFR Definition 25.1 for pre-scaled clock selection).
Timer 0/1 may then be configured to use this pre-scaled clock signal or the system clock. Timer 2 and
Timer 3 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12. Timer 2 may additionally be
clocked by the SmaRTClock divided by 8 or the Comparator0 output. Timer 3 may additionally be clocked
by the external oscillator clock source divided by 8 or the Comparator1 output.
Timer 0 and Timer 1 may also be operated as counters. When functioning as a counter, a counter/timer
register is incremented on each high-to-low transition at the selected input pin (T0 or T1). Events with a
frequency of up to one-fourth the system clock frequency can be counted. The input signal need not be
periodic, but it should be held at a given level for at least two full system clock cycles to ensure the level is
properly sampled.

25.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1
Each timer is implemented as a 16-bit register accessed as two separate bytes: a low byte (TL0 or TL1)
and a high byte (TH0 or TH1). The Counter/Timer Control register (TCON) is used to enable Timer 0 and
Timer 1 as well as indicate status. Timer 0 interrupts can be enabled by setting the ET0 bit in the IE register (“Interrupt Register Descriptions” on page 141); Timer 1 interrupts can be enabled by setting the ET1 bit
in the IE register (“Interrupt Register Descriptions” on page 141). Both counter/timers operate in one of four
primary modes selected by setting the Mode Select bits T1M1–T0M0 in the Counter/Timer Mode register
(TMOD). Each timer can be configured independently. Each operating mode is described below.
25.1.1. Mode 0: 13-bit Counter/Timer
Timer 0 and Timer 1 operate as 13-bit counter/timers in Mode 0. The following describes the configuration
and operation of Timer 0. However, both timers operate identically, and Timer 1 is configured in the same
manner as described for Timer 0.
The TH0 register holds the eight MSBs of the 13-bit counter/timer. TL0 holds the five LSBs in bit positions
TL0.4–TL0.0. The three upper bits of TL0 (TL0.7–TL0.5) are indeterminate and should be masked out or
ignored when reading. As the 13-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0x1FFF (all ones) to
0x0000, the timer overflow flag TF0 (TCON.5) is set and an interrupt will occur if Timer 0 interrupts are
enabled.
The C/T0 bit (TMOD.2) selects the counter/timer's clock source. When C/T0 is set to logic 1, high-to-low
transitions at the selected Timer 0 input pin (T0) increment the timer register (Refer to Section
“21.3. Priority Crossbar Decoder” on page 219 for information on selecting and configuring external I/O
pins). Clearing C/T selects the clock defined by the T0M bit (CKCON.3). When T0M is set, Timer 0 is
clocked by the system clock. When T0M is cleared, Timer 0 is clocked by the source selected by the Clock
Scale bits in CKCON (see SFR Definition 25.1).
Setting the TR0 bit (TCON.4) enables the timer when either GATE0 (TMOD.3) is logic 0 or the input signal
INT0 is active as defined by bit IN0PL in register IT01CF (see SFR Definition 13.7). Setting GATE0 to 1
allows the timer to be controlled by the external input signal INT0 (see Section “13.5. Interrupt Register
Descriptions” on page 141), facilitating pulse width measurements

Setting TR0 does not force the timer to reset. The timer registers should be loaded with the desired initial
value before the timer is enabled.
TL1 and TH1 form the 13-bit register for Timer 1 in the same manner as described above for TL0 and TH0.
Timer 1 is configured and controlled using the relevant TCON and TMOD bits just as with Timer 0. The
input signal INT1 is used with Timer 1; the INT1 polarity is defined by bit IN1PL in register IT01CF (see
SFR Definition 13.7).

25.1.2. Mode 1: 16-bit Counter/Timer
Mode 1 operation is the same as Mode 0, except that the counter/timer registers use all 16 bits. The
counter/timers are enabled and configured in Mode 1 in the same manner as for Mode 0.

25.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit Counter/Timer with Auto-Reload
Mode 2 configures Timer 0 and Timer 1 to operate as 8-bit counter/timers with automatic reload of the start
value. TL0 holds the count and TH0 holds the reload value. When the counter in TL0 overflows from all
ones to 0x00, the timer overflow flag TF0 (TCON.5) is set and the counter in TL0 is reloaded from TH0. If
Timer 0 interrupts are enabled, an interrupt will occur when the TF0 flag is set. The reload value in TH0 is
not changed. TL0 must be initialized to the desired value before enabling the timer for the first count to be
correct. When in Mode 2, Timer 1 operates identically to Timer 0.
Both counter/timers are enabled and configured in Mode 2 in the same manner as Mode 0. Setting the
TR0 bit (TCON.4) enables the timer when either GATE0 (TMOD.3) is logic 0 or when the input signal INT0
is active as defined by bit IN0PL in register IT01CF (see Section “13.6. External Interrupts INT0 and INT1”
on page 148 for details on the external input signals INT0 and INT1).

25.1.4. Mode 3: Two 8-bit Counter/Timers (Timer 0 Only)
In Mode 3, Timer 0 is configured as two separate 8-bit counter/timers held in TL0 and TH0. The
counter/timer in TL0 is controlled using the Timer 0 control/status bits in TCON and TMOD: TR0, C/T0,
GATE0 and TF0. TL0 can use either the system clock or an external input signal as its timebase. The TH0
register is restricted to a timer function sourced by the system clock or prescaled clock. TH0 is enabled
using the Timer 1 run control bit TR1. TH0 sets the Timer 1 overflow flag TF1 on overflow and thus controls
the Timer 1 interrupt.
Timer 1 is inactive in Mode 3. When Timer 0 is operating in Mode 3, Timer 1 can be operated in Modes 0,
1 or 2, but cannot be clocked by external signals nor set the TF1 flag and generate an interrupt. However,
the Timer 1 overflow can be used to generate baud rates for the SMBus and/or UART, and/or initiate ADC
conversions. While Timer 0 is operating in Mode 3, Timer 1 run control is handled through its mode settings. To run Timer 1 while Timer 0 is in Mode 3, set the Timer 1 Mode as 0, 1, or 2. To disable Timer 1,
configure it for Mode 3.

25.2. Timer 2
Timer 2 is a 16-bit timer formed by two 8-bit SFRs: TMR2L (low byte) and TMR2H (high byte). Timer 2 may
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode or (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode. The T2SPLIT bit (TMR2CN.3) defines
the Timer 2 operation mode. Timer 2 can also be used in Capture Mode to measure the SmaRTClock or
the Comparator 0 period with respect to another oscillator. The ability to measure the Comparator 0 period
with respect to the system clock is makes using Touch Sense Switches very easy.
Timer 2 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, SmaRTClock divided by 8, or
Comparator 0 output. Note that the SmaRTClock divided by 8 and Comparator 0 output is synchronized
with the system clock.
25.2.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload
When T2SPLIT (TMR2CN.3) is zero, Timer 2 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 2 can be
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, SmaRTClock divided by 8, or Comparator 0 output. As the
16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in the Timer 2
reload registers (TMR2RLH and TMR2RLL) is loaded into the Timer 2 register as shown in Figure 25.4,
and the Timer 2 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR2CN.7) is set. If Timer 2 interrupts are enabled (if IE.5 is
set), an interrupt will be generated on each Timer 2 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 2 interrupts are enabled
and the TF2LEN bit is set (TMR2CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8 bits (TMR2L)
overflow from 0xFF to 0x00.

25.2.2. 8-bit Timers with Auto-Reload
When T2SPLIT is set, Timer 2 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR2H and TMR2L). Both 8-bit timers operate in auto-reload mode as shown in Figure 25.5. TMR2RLL holds the reload value for TMR2L; TMR2RLH
holds the reload value for TMR2H. The TR2 bit in TMR2CN handles the run control for TMR2H. TMR2L is
always running when configured for 8-bit Mode.
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, SmaRTClock divided by 8 or
Comparator 0 output. The Timer 2 Clock Select bits (T2MH and T2ML in CKCON) select either SYSCLK or
the clock defined by the Timer 2 External Clock Select bits (T2XCLK[1:0] in TMR2CN), as follows:

The TF2H bit is set when TMR2H overflows from 0xFF to 0x00; the TF2L bit is set when TMR2L overflows
from 0xFF to 0x00. When Timer 2 interrupts are enabled (IE.5), an interrupt is generated each time
TMR2H overflows. If Timer 2 interrupts are enabled and TF2LEN (TMR2CN.5) is set, an interrupt is generated each time either TMR2L or TMR2H overflows. When TF2LEN is enabled, software must check the
TF2H and TF2L flags to determine the source of the Timer 2 interrupt. The TF2H and TF2L interrupt flags
are not cleared by hardware and must be manually cleared by software.

25.2.3. Comparator 0/SmaRTClock Capture Mode
The Capture Mode in Timer 2 allows either Comparator 0 or the SmaRTClock period to be measured
against the system clock or the system clock divided by 12. Comparator 0 and the SmaRTClock period can
also be compared against each other. Timer 2 Capture Mode is enabled by setting TF2CEN to 1. Timer 2
should be in 16-bit auto-reload mode when using Capture Mode.
When Capture Mode is enabled, a capture event will be generated either every Comparator 0 rising edge
or every 8 SmaRTClock clock cycles, depending on the T2XCLK1 setting. When the capture event occurs,
the contents of Timer 2 (TMR2H:TMR2L) are loaded into the Timer 2 reload registers
(TMR2RLH:TMR2RLL) and the TF2H flag is set (triggering an interrupt if Timer 2 interrupts are enabled).
By recording the difference between two successive timer capture values, the Comparator 0 or SmaRTClock period can be determined with respect to the Timer 2 clock. The Timer 2 clock should be much faster
than the capture clock to achieve an accurate reading.
For example, if T2ML = 1b, T2XCLK1 = 0b, and TF2CEN = 1b, Timer 2 will clock every SYSCLK and capture every SmaRTClock clock divided by 8. If the SYSCLK is 24.5 MHz and the difference between two
successive captures is 5984, then the SmaRTClock clock is as follows:
24.5 MHz/(5984/8) = 0.032754 MHz or 32.754 kHz.
This mode allows software to determine the exact SmaRTClock frequency in self-oscillate mode and the
time between consecutive Comparator 0 rising edges, which is useful for detecting changes in the capacitance of a Touch Sense Switch.

25.3. Timer 3
Timer 3 is a 16-bit timer formed by two 8-bit SFRs: TMR3L (low byte) and TMR3H (high byte). Timer 3 may
operate in 16-bit auto-reload mode or (split) 8-bit auto-reload mode. The T3SPLIT bit (TMR2CN.3) defines
the Timer 3 operation mode. Timer 3 can also be used in Capture Mode to measure the external oscillator
source or the SmaRTClock oscillator period with respect to another oscillator.
Timer 3 may be clocked by the system clock, the system clock divided by 12, external oscillator source
divided by 8, or the SmaRTClock oscillator. The external oscillator source divided by 8 and SmaRTClock
oscillator is synchronized with the system clock.
25.3.1. 16-bit Timer with Auto-Reload
When T3SPLIT (TMR3CN.3) is zero, Timer 3 operates as a 16-bit timer with auto-reload. Timer 3 can be
clocked by SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, external oscillator clock source divided by 8, or SmaRTClock
oscillator. As the 16-bit timer register increments and overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the 16-bit value in
the Timer 3 reload registers (TMR3RLH and TMR3RLL) is loaded into the Timer 3 register as shown in
Figure 25.7, and the Timer 3 High Byte Overflow Flag (TMR3CN.7) is set. If Timer 3 interrupts are enabled
(if EIE1.7 is set), an interrupt will be generated on each Timer 3 overflow. Additionally, if Timer 3 interrupts
are enabled and the TF3LEN bit is set (TMR3CN.5), an interrupt will be generated each time the lower 8
bits (TMR3L) overflow from 0xFF to 0x00.

25.3.2. 8-Bit Timers with Auto-Reload
When T3SPLIT is set, Timer 3 operates as two 8-bit timers (TMR3H and TMR3L). Both 8-bit timers operate in auto-reload mode as shown in Figure 25.8. TMR3RLL holds the reload value for TMR3L; TMR3RLH
holds the reload value for TMR3H. The TR3 bit in TMR3CN handles the run control for TMR3H. TMR3L is
always running when configured for 8-bit Mode.
Each 8-bit timer may be configured to use SYSCLK, SYSCLK divided by 12, the external oscillator clock
source divided by 8, or the SmaRTClock. The Timer 3 Clock Select bits (T3MH and T3ML in CKCON)
select either SYSCLK or the clock defined by the Timer 3 External Clock Select bits (T3XCLK[1:0] in
TMR3CN), as follows:

time either TMR3L or TMR3H overflows. When TF3LEN is enabled, software must check the TF3H and
TF3L flags to determine the source of the Timer 3 interrupt. The TF3H and TF3L interrupt flags are not
cleared by hardware and must be manually cleared by software.

25.3.3. SmaRTClock/External Oscillator Capture Mode
The Capture Mode in Timer 3 allows either SmaRTClock or the external oscillator period to be measured
against the system clock or the system clock divided by 12. SmaRTClock and the external oscillator period
can also be compared against each other.
Setting TF3CEN to 1 enables the SmaRTClock/External Oscillator Capture Mode for Timer 3. In this mode,
T3SPLIT should be set to 0, as the full 16-bit timer is used.
When Capture Mode is enabled, a capture event will be generated either every SmaRTClock rising edge
or every 8 external clock cycles, depending on the T3XCLK1 setting. When the capture event occurs, the
contents of Timer 3 (TMR3H:TMR3L) are loaded into the Timer 3 reload registers (TMR3RLH:TMR3RLL)
and the TF3H flag is set (triggering an interrupt if Timer 3 interrupts are enabled). By recording the difference between two successive timer capture values, the SmaRTClock or external clock period can be
determined with respect to the Timer 3 clock. The Timer 3 clock should be much faster than the capture
clock to achieve an accurate reading.
For example, if T3ML = 1b, T3XCLK1 = 0b, and TF3CEN = 1b, Timer 3 will clock every SYSCLK and capture every SmaRTClock rising edge. If SYSCLK is 24.5 MHz and the difference between two successive
captures is 350 counts, then the SmaRTClock period is as follows:
350 x (1 / 24.5 MHz) = 14.2 µs.
This mode allows software to determine the exact frequency of the external oscillator in C and RC mode or
the time between consecutive SmaRTClock rising edges, which is useful for determining the SmaRTClock
frequency.

26. Programmable Counter Array
The programmable counter array (PCA0) provides enhanced timer functionality while requiring less CPU
intervention than the standard 8051 counter/timers. The PCA consists of a dedicated 16-bit counter/timer
and three 16-bit capture/compare modules. Each capture/compare module has its own associated I/O line
(CEXn) which is routed through the Crossbar to Port I/O when enabled. The counter/timer is driven by a
programmable timebase that can select between six sources: system clock, system clock divided by four,
system clock divided by twelve, the external oscillator clock source divided by 8, SmaRTClock divided by
8, Timer 0 overflows, or an external clock signal on the ECI input pin. Each capture/compare module may
be configured to operate independently in one of six modes: Edge-Triggered Capture, Software Timer,
High-Speed Output, Frequency Output, 8 to 11-Bit PWM, or 16-Bit PWM (each mode is described in
Section “26.3. Capture/Compare Modules” on page 303). The external oscillator clock option is ideal for
real-time clock (RTC) functionality, allowing the PCA to be clocked by a precision external oscillator while
the internal oscillator drives the system clock. The PCA is configured and controlled through the system
controller's Special Function Registers. The PCA block diagram is shown in Figure 26.1
Important Note: The PCA Module 2 may be used as a watchdog timer (WDT), and is enabled in this mode
following a system reset. Access to certain PCA registers is restricted while WDT mode is enabled.
See Section 26.4 for details.

26.1. PCA Counter/Timer
The 16-bit PCA counter/timer consists of two 8-bit SFRs: PCA0L and PCA0H. PCA0H is the high byte
(MSB) of the 16-bit counter/timer and PCA0L is the low byte (LSB). Reading PCA0L automatically latches
the value of PCA0H into a “snapshot” register; the following PCA0H read accesses this “snapshot” register.
Reading the PCA0L Register first guarantees an accurate reading of the entire 16-bit PCA0 counter.
Reading PCA0H or PCA0L does not disturb the counter operation. The CPS2–CPS0 bits in the PCA0MD
register select the timebase for the counter/timer as shown in Table 26.1.
When the counter/timer overflows from 0xFFFF to 0x0000, the Counter Overflow Flag (CF) in PCA0MD is
set to logic 1 and an interrupt request is generated if CF interrupts are enabled. Setting the ECF bit in
PCA0MD to logic 1 enables the CF flag to generate an interrupt request. The CF bit is not automatically
cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared by
software. Clearing the CIDL bit in the PCA0MD register allows the PCA to continue normal operation while
the CPU is in Idle mode.

26.2. PCA0 Interrupt Sources
Figure 26.3 shows a diagram of the PCA interrupt tree. There are five independent event flags that can be
used to generate a PCA0 interrupt. They are: the main PCA counter overflow flag (CF), which is set upon
a 16-bit overflow of the PCA0 counter, an intermediate overflow flag (COVF), which can be set on an
overflow from the 8th, 9th, 10th, or 11th bit of the PCA0 counter, and the individual flags for each PCA
channel (CCF0, CCF1, and CCF2), which are set according to the operation mode of that module. These
event flags are always set when the trigger condition occurs. Each of these flags can be individually
selected to generate a PCA0 interrupt, using the corresponding interrupt enable flag (ECF for CF, ECOV
for COVF, and ECCFn for each CCFn). PCA0 interrupts must be globally enabled before any individual
interrupt sources are recognized by the processor. PCA0 interrupts are globally enabled by setting the EA
bit and the EPCA0 bit to logic 1.

26.3. Capture/Compare Modules
Each module can be configured to operate independently in one of six operation modes: edge-triggered
capture, software timer, high-speed output, frequency output, 8 to 11-bit pulse width modulator, or 16-bit
pulse width modulator. Each module has Special Function Registers (SFRs) associated with it in the CIP51 system controller. These registers are used to exchange data with a module and configure the module's
mode of operation. Table 26.2 summarizes the bit settings in the PCA0CPMn and PCA0PWM registers
used to select the PCA capture/compare module’s operating mode. Note that all modules set to use 8, 9,
10, or 11-bit PWM mode must use the same cycle length (8–11 bits). Setting the ECCFn bit in a
PCA0CPMn register enables the module's CCFn interrupt.

4. C = When set to 0, the digital comparator is off. For high speed and frequency output modes, the
associated pin will not toggle. In any of the PWM modes, this generates a 0% duty cycle (output = 0).
5. D = Selects whether the Capture/Compare register (0) or the Auto-Reload register (1) for the associated
channel is accessed via addresses PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn.
6. E = When set, a match event will cause the CCFn flag for the associated channel to be set.
7. All modules set to 8, 9, 10 or 11-bit PWM mode use the same cycle length setting.

26.3.1. Edge-triggered Capture Mode
In this mode, a valid transition on the CEXn pin causes the PCA to capture the value of the PCA
counter/timer and load it into the corresponding module's 16-bit capture/compare register (PCA0CPLn and
PCA0CPHn). The CAPPn and CAPNn bits in the PCA0CPMn register are used to select the type of
transition that triggers the capture: low-to-high transition (positive edge), high-to-low transition (negative
edge), or either transition (positive or negative edge). When a capture occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag
(CCFn) in PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module
is enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt
service routine, and must be cleared by software. If both CAPPn and CAPNn bits are set to logic 1, then
the state of the Port pin associated with CEXn can be read directly to determine whether a rising-edge or
falling-edge caused the capture.

26.3.2. Software Timer (Compare) Mode
In Software Timer mode, the PCA counter/timer value is compared to the module's 16-bit capture/compare
register (PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn). When a match occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in
PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is
enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt
service routine, and must be cleared by software. Setting the ECOMn and MATn bits in the PCA0CPMn
register enables Software Timer mode.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0
Capture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

26.3.3. High-Speed Output Mode
In High-Speed Output mode, a module’s associated CEXn pin is toggled each time a match occurs
between the PCA Counter and the module's 16-bit capture/compare register (PCA0CPHn and
PCA0CPLn). When a match occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in PCA0CN is set to logic 1. An
interrupt request is generated if the CCFn interrupt for that module is enabled. The CCFn bit is not
automatically cleared by hardware when the CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be
cleared by software. Setting the TOGn, MATn, and ECOMn bits in the PCA0CPMn register enables the
High-Speed Output mode. If ECOMn is cleared, the associated pin will retain its state, and not toggle on
the next match event.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0
Capture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

26.3.4. Frequency Output Mode
Frequency Output Mode produces a programmable-frequency square wave on the module’s associated
CEXn pin. The capture/compare module high byte holds the number of PCA clocks to count before the
output is toggled. The frequency of the square wave is then defined by Equation 26.1.

F CEXn = ----------------------------------------2 × PCA0CPHn
Note: A value of 0x00 in the PCA0CPHn register is equal to 256 for this equation.

Where FPCA is the frequency of the clock selected by the CPS2–0 bits in the PCA mode register,
PCA0MD. The lower byte of the capture/compare module is compared to the PCA counter low byte; on a
match, CEXn is toggled and the offset held in the high byte is added to the matched value in PCA0CPLn.
Frequency Output Mode is enabled by setting the ECOMn, TOGn, and PWMn bits in the PCA0CPMn
register. Note that the MATn bit should normally be set to 0 in this mode. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the
CCFn flag for the channel will be set when the 16-bit PCA0 counter and the 16-bit capture/compare
register for the channel are equal.

26.3.5. 8-bit, 9-bit, 10-bit and 11-bit Pulse Width Modulator Modes
Each module can be used independently to generate a pulse width modulated (PWM) output on its
associated CEXn pin. The frequency of the output is dependent on the timebase for the PCA counter/timer,
and the setting of the PWM cycle length (8, 9, 10 or 11-bits). For backwards-compatibility with the 8-bit
PWM mode available on other devices, the 8-bit PWM mode operates slightly different than 9, 10 and 11bit PWM modes. It is important to note that all channels configured for 8/9/10/11-bit PWM mode will
use the same cycle length. It is not possible to configure one channel for 8-bit PWM mode and another
for 11-bit mode (for example). However, other PCA channels can be configured to Pin Capture, HighSpeed Output, Software Timer, Frequency Output, or 16-bit PWM mode independently.

C8051F99x-C8051F98x
26.3.5.1. 8-Bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode
The duty cycle of the PWM output signal in 8-bit PWM mode is varied using the module's PCA0CPLn
capture/compare register. When the value in the low byte of the PCA counter/timer (PCA0L) is equal to the
value in PCA0CPLn, the output on the CEXn pin will be set. When the count value in PCA0L overflows, the
CEXn output will be reset (see Figure 26.8). Also, when the counter/timer low byte (PCA0L) overflows from
0xFF to 0x00, PCA0CPLn is reloaded automatically with the value stored in the module’s capture/compare
high byte (PCA0CPHn) without software intervention. Setting the ECOMn and PWMn bits in the
PCA0CPMn register, and setting the CLSEL bits in register PCA0PWM to 00b enables 8-Bit Pulse Width
Modulator mode. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for the module will be set each time an 8-bit
comparator match (rising edge) occurs. The COVF flag in PCA0PWM can be used to detect the overflow
(falling edge), which will occur every 256 PCA clock cycles. The duty cycle for 8-Bit PWM Mode is given in
Equation 26.2.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0
Capture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.
( 256 – PCA0CPHn )
Duty Cycle = --------------------------------------------------256
Equation 26.2. 8-Bit PWM Duty Cycle
Using Equation 26.2, the largest duty cycle is 100% (PCA0CPHn = 0), and the smallest duty cycle is
0.39% (PCA0CPHn = 0xFF). A 0% duty cycle may be generated by clearing the ECOMn bit to 0.

26.3.5.2. 9/10/11-bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode
The duty cycle of the PWM output signal in 9/10/11-bit PWM mode should be varied by writing to an “AutoReload” Register, which is dual-mapped into the PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn register locations. The data
written to define the duty cycle should be right-justified in the registers. The auto-reload registers are
accessed (read or written) when the bit ARSEL in PCA0PWM is set to 1. The capture/compare registers
are accessed when ARSEL is set to 0.
When the least-significant N bits of the PCA0 counter match the value in the associated module’s
capture/compare register (PCA0CPn), the output on CEXn is asserted high. When the counter overflows
from the Nth bit, CEXn is asserted low (see Figure 26.9). Upon an overflow from the Nth bit, the COVF flag
is set, and the value stored in the module’s auto-reload register is loaded into the capture/compare
register. The value of N is determined by the CLSEL bits in register PCA0PWM.
The 9, 10 or 11-bit PWM mode is selected by setting the ECOMn and PWMn bits in the PCA0CPMn
register, and setting the CLSEL bits in register PCA0PWM to the desired cycle length (other than 8-bits). If
the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for the module will be set each time a comparator match (rising
edge) occurs. The COVF flag in PCA0PWM can be used to detect the overflow (falling edge), which will
occur every 512 (9-bit), 1024 (10-bit) or 2048 (11-bit) PCA clock cycles. The duty cycle for 9/10/11-Bit
PWM Mode is given in Equation 26.2, where N is the number of bits in the PWM cycle.
Important Note About PCA0CPHn and PCA0CPLn Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the
PCA0CPn registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the ECOMn
bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

26.3.6. 16-Bit Pulse Width Modulator Mode
A PCA module may also be operated in 16-Bit PWM mode. 16-bit PWM mode is independent of the other
(8/9/10/11-bit) PWM modes. In this mode, the 16-bit capture/compare module defines the number of PCA
clocks for the low time of the PWM signal. When the PCA counter matches the module contents, the
output on CEXn is asserted high; when the 16-bit counter overflows, CEXn is asserted low. To output a
varying duty cycle, new value writes should be synchronized with PCA CCFn match interrupts. 16-Bit
PWM Mode is enabled by setting the ECOMn, PWMn, and PWM16n bits in the PCA0CPMn register. For a
varying duty cycle, match interrupts should be enabled (ECCFn = 1 AND MATn = 1) to help synchronize
the capture/compare register writes. If the MATn bit is set to 1, the CCFn flag for the module will be set
each time a 16-bit comparator match (rising edge) occurs. The CF flag in PCA0CN can be used to detect
the overflow (falling edge). The duty cycle for 16-Bit PWM Mode is given by Equation 26.4.
Important Note About Capture/Compare Registers: When writing a 16-bit value to the PCA0
Capture/Compare registers, the low byte should always be written first. Writing to PCA0CPLn clears the
ECOMn bit to 0; writing to PCA0CPHn sets ECOMn to 1.

Using Equation 26.4, the largest duty cycle is 100% (PCA0CPn = 0), and the smallest duty cycle is

26.4. Watchdog Timer Mode
A programmable watchdog timer (WDT) function is available through the PCA Module 2. The WDT is used
to generate a reset if the time between writes to the WDT update register (PCA0CPH2) exceed a specified
limit. The WDT can be configured and enabled/disabled as needed by software.
With the WDTE bit set in the PCA0MD register, Module 2 operates as a watchdog timer (WDT). The
Module 2 high byte is compared to the PCA counter high byte; the Module 2 low byte holds the offset to be
used when WDT updates are performed. The Watchdog Timer is enabled on reset. Writes to some
PCA registers are restricted while the Watchdog Timer is enabled. The WDT will generate a reset
shortly after code begins execution. To avoid this reset, the WDT should be explicitly disabled (and
optionally re-configured and re-enabled if it is used in the system).
26.4.1. Watchdog Timer Operation
While the WDT is enabled:
PCA counter is forced on.
Writes to PCA0L and PCA0H are not allowed.
PCA clock source bits (CPS2–CPS0) are frozen.
PCA Idle control bit (CIDL) is frozen.
Module 2 is forced into software timer mode.
Writes to the Module 2 mode register (PCA0CPM2) are disabled.
While the WDT is enabled, writes to the CR bit will not change the PCA counter state; the counter will run
until the WDT is disabled. The PCA counter run control bit (CR) will read zero if the WDT is enabled but
user software has not enabled the PCA counter. If a match occurs between PCA0CPH2 and PCA0H while
the WDT is enabled, a reset will be generated. To prevent a WDT reset, the WDT may be updated with a
write of any value to PCA0CPH2. Upon a PCA0CPH2 write, PCA0H plus the offset held in PCA0CPL2 is
loaded into PCA0CPH2 (See Figure 26.11).

The 8-bit offset held in PCA0CPH2 is compared to the upper byte of the 16-bit PCA counter. This offset
value is the number of PCA0L overflows before a reset. Up to 256 PCA clocks may pass before the first
PCA0L overflow occurs, depending on the value of the PCA0L when the update is performed. The total
offset is then given (in PCA clocks) by Equation 26.5, where PCA0L is the value of the PCA0L register at
the time of the update.
Offset = ( 256 × PCA0CPL2 ) + ( 256 – PCA0L )
Equation 26.5. Watchdog Timer Offset in PCA Clocks
The WDT reset is generated when PCA0L overflows while there is a match between PCA0CPH2 and
PCA0H. Software may force a WDT reset by writing a 1 to the CCF2 flag (PCA0CN.2) while the WDT is
enabled.
26.4.2. Watchdog Timer Usage
To configure the WDT, perform the following tasks:
1. Disable the WDT by writing a 0 to the WDTE bit.
2. Select the desired PCA clock source (with the CPS2–CPS0 bits).
3. Load PCA0CPL2 with the desired WDT update offset value.
4. Configure the PCA Idle mode (set CIDL if the WDT should be suspended while the CPU is in Idle
mode).
5. Enable the WDT by setting the WDTE bit to 1.
6. Reset the WDT timer by writing to PCA0CPH2.
The PCA clock source and Idle mode select cannot be changed while the WDT is enabled. The watchdog
timer is enabled by setting the WDTE or WDLCK bits in the PCA0MD register. When WDLCK is set, the
WDT cannot be disabled until the next system reset. If WDLCK is not set, the WDT is disabled by clearing
the WDTE bit.
The WDT is enabled following any reset. The PCA0 counter clock defaults to the system clock divided by
12, PCA0L defaults to 0x00, and PCA0CPL2 defaults to 0x00. Using Equation 26.5, this results in a WDT
timeout interval of 256 PCA clock cycles, or 3072 system clock cycles. Table 26.3 lists some example
timeout intervals for typical system clocks.

27. C2 Interface
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include an on-chip Silicon Labs 2-Wire (C2) debug interface to allow
Flash programming and in-system debugging with the production part installed in the end application. The
C2 interface uses a clock signal (C2CK) and a bi-directional C2 data signal (C2D) to transfer information
between the device and a host system. See the C2 Interface Specification for details on the C2 protocol.
27.1. C2 Interface Registers
The following describes the C2 registers necessary to perform Flash programming through the C2 interface. All C2 registers are accessed through the C2 interface as described in the C2 Interface Specification.

27.2. C2 Pin Sharing
The C2 protocol allows the C2 pins to be shared with user functions so that in-system debugging and
Flash programming may be performed. This is possible because C2 communication is typically performed
when the device is in the halt state, where all on-chip peripherals and user software are stalled. In this
halted state, the C2 interface can safely “borrow” the C2CK (RST) and C2D pins. In most applications,
external resistors are required to isolate C2 interface traffic from the user application. A typical isolation
configuration is shown in Figure 27.1.
C8051Fxxx
RST (a)
C2CK
Input (b)
C2D
Output (c)
C2 Interface Master
Figure 27.1. Typical C2 Pin Sharing
The configuration in Figure 27.1 assumes the following:
1. The user input (b) cannot change state while the target device is halted.
2. The RST pin on the target device is used as an input only.
Additional resistors may be necessary depending on the specific application.
