AT89S8252
Description
The AT89S8252 is a low-power, high-performance CMOS 8-bit microcomputer with
8K bytes of Downloadable Flash programmable and erasable read only memory and
2K bytes of EEPROM. The device is manufactured using Atmel’s high density nonvolatile memory technology and is compatible with the industry standard 80C51 instruction set and pinout. The on-chip Downloadable Flash allows the program memory to
be reprogrammed in-system through an SPI serial interface or by a conventional nonvolatile memory programmer. By combining a versatile 8-bit CPU with Downloadable
Flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel AT89S8252 is a powerful microcomputer which
provides a highly flexible and cost effective solution to many embedded control applications.
The AT89S8252 provides the following standard features: 8K bytes of Downloadable
Flash, 2K bytes of EEPROM, 256 bytes of RAM, 32 I/O lines, programmable watchdog timer, two Data Pointers, three 16-bit timer/counters, a six-vector two-level interrupt architecture, a full duplex serial port, on-chip oscillator, and clock circuitry. In
addition, the AT89S8252 is designed with static logic for operation down to zero frequency and supports two software selectable power saving modes. The Idle Mode
stops the CPU while allowing the RAM, timer/counters, serial port, and interrupt system to continue functioning. The Power Down Mode saves the RAM contents but
freezes the oscillator, disabling all other chip functions until the next interrupt or hardware reset.
The Downloadable Flash can be changed a single byte at a time and is accessible
through the SPI serial interface. Holding RESET active forces the SPI bus into a serial
programming interface and allows the program memory to be written to or read from
unless Lock Bit 2 has been activated.

Pin Description
Port 0 also receives the code bytes during Flash programming and outputs the code bytes during program verification. External pullups are required during program verification.
VCC
Supply voltage.
GND
Ground.
Port 0
Port 0 is an 8-bit open drain bidirectional I/O port. As an
output port, each pin can sink eight TTL inputs. When 1s
are written to port 0 pins, the pins can be used as highimpedance inputs.
Port 0 can also be configured to be the multiplexed loworder address/data bus during accesses to external program and data memory. In this mode, P0 has internal pullups.
4-106
AT89S8252
Port 1
Port 1 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pullups.
The Port 1 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs.
When 1s are written to Port 1 pins, they are pulled high by
the internal pullups and can be used as inputs. As inputs,
Port 1 pins that are externally being pulled low will source
current (IIL) because of the internal pullups.
Some Port 1 pins provide additional functions. P1.0 and
P1.1 can be configured to be the timer/counter 2 external
count input (P1.0/T2) and the timer/counter 2 trigger input
(P1.1/T2EX), respectively.

Port 1 also receives the low-order address bytes during
Flash programming and verification.
Port 2
Port 2 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pullups.
The Port 2 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs.
When 1s are written to Port 2 pins, they are pulled high by
the internal pullups and can be used as inputs. As inputs,
Port 2 pins that are externally being pulled low will source
current (IIL) because of the internal pullups.
Port 2 emits the high-order address byte during fetches
from external program memory and during accesses to
external data memory that use 16-bit addresses (MOVX @
DPTR). In this application, Port 2 uses strong internal pullups when emitting 1s. During accesses to external data
memory that use 8-bit addresses (MOVX @ RI), Port 2
emits the contents of the P2 Special Function Register.
Port 2 also receives the high-order address bits and some
control signals during Flash programming and verification.
Port 3
Port 3 is an 8 bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pullups.
The Port 3 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs.
When 1s are written to Port 3 pins, they are pulled high by
the internal pullups and can be used as inputs. As inputs,
Port 3 pins that are externally being pulled low will source
current (IIL) because of the pullups.
Port 3 also serves the functions of various special features
of the AT89S8252, as shown in the following table.
Port 3 also receives some control signals for Flash programming and verification.

RST
Reset input. A high on this pin for two machine cycles while
the oscillator is running resets the device.
ALE/PROG
Address Latch Enable is an output pulse for latching the
low byte of the address during accesses to external memory. This pin is also the program pulse input (PROG) during
Flash programming.
In normal operation, ALE is emitted at a constant rate of 1/6
the oscillator frequency and may be used for external timing or clocking purposes. Note, however, that one ALE
pulse is skipped during each access to external data memory.
If desired, ALE operation can be disabled by setting bit 0 of
SFR location 8EH. With the bit set, ALE is active only during a MOVX or MOVC instruction. Otherwise, the pin is
weakly pulled high. Setting the ALE-disable bit has no
effect if the microcontroller is in external execution mode.
PSEN
Program Store Enable is the read strobe to external program memory.
When the AT89S8252 is executing code from external program memory, PSEN is activated twice each machine
cycle, except that two PSEN activations are skipped during
each access to external data memory.
EA/VPP
External Access Enable. EA must be strapped to GND in
order to enable the device to fetch code from external program memory locations starting at 0000H up to FFFFH.
Note, however, that if lock bit 1 is programmed, EA will be
internally latched on reset.
EA should be strapped to VCC for internal program executions. This pin also receives the 12-volt programming
enable voltage (VPP) during Flash programming when 12volt programming is selected.

Special Function Registers
A map of the on-chip memory area called the Special Function Register (SFR) space is shown in Table 1.
Note that not all of the addresses are occupied, and unoccupied addresses may not be implemented on the chip.
Read accesses to these addresses will in general return
random data, and write accesses will have an indeterminate
effect.

User software should not write 1s to these unlisted locations, since they may be used in future products to invoke
new features. In that case, the reset or inactive values of the
new bits will always be 0.
Timer 2 Registers Control and status bits are contained in
registers T2CON (shown in Table 2) and T2MOD (shown in
Table 9) for Timer 2. The register pair (RCAP2H, RCAP2L)
are the Capture/Reload registers for Timer 2 in 16 bit capture mode or 16-bit auto-reload mode.
Watchdog and Memory Control Register The WMCON
register contains control bits for the Watchdog Timer
(shown in Table 3). The EEMEN and EEMWE bits are used
to select the 2K bytes on-chip EEPROM, and to enable
byte-write. The DPS bit selects one of two DPTR registers
available.
SPI Registers Control and status bits for the Serial Peripheral Interface are contained in registers SPCR (shown in
Table 4) and SPSR (shown in Table 5). The SPI data bits
are contained in the SPDR register. Writing the SPI data
register during serial data transfer sets the Write Collision
bit, WCOL, in the SPSR register. The SPDR is double buffered for writing and the values in SPDR are not changed by
Reset.
Interrupt Registers The global interrupt enable bit and the
individual interrupt enable bits are in the IE register. In addition, the individual interrupt enable bit for the SPI is in the
SPCR register. Two priorities can be set for each of the six
interrupt sources in the IP register.

TF2
Timer 2 overflow flag set by a Timer 2 overflow and must be cleared by software. TF2 will not be set when either
RCLK = 1 or TCLK = 1.
EXF2
Timer 2 external flag set when either a capture or reload is caused by a negative transition on T2EX and EXEN2 = 1.
When Timer 2 interrupt is enabled, EXF2 = 1 will cause the CPU to vector to the Timer 2 interrupt routine. EXF2 must be
cleared by software. EXF2 does not cause an interrupt in up/down counter mode (DCEN = 1).
RCLK
Receive clock enable. When set, causes the serial port to use Timer 2 overflow pulses for its receive clock in serial port
Modes 1 and 3. RCLK = 0 causes Timer 1 overflows to be used for the receive clock.
TCLK
Transmit clock enable. When set, causes the serial port to use Timer 2 overflow pulses for its transmit clock in serial port
Modes 1 and 3. TCLK = 0 causes Timer 1 overflows to be used for the transmit clock.
EXEN2
Timer 2 external enable. When set, allows a capture or reload to occur as a result of a negative transition on T2EX if
Timer 2 is not being used to clock the serial port. EXEN2 = 0 causes Timer 2 to ignore events at T2EX.
TR2
Start/Stop control for Timer 2. TR2 = 1 starts the timer.
C/T2
Timer or counter select for Timer 2. C/T2 = 0 for timer function. C/T2 = 1 for external event counter (falling edge triggered).
CP/RL2
Capture/Reload select. CP/RL2 = 1 causes captures to occur on negative transitions at T2EX if EXEN2 = 1. CP/RL2 = 0
causes automatic reloads to occur when Timer 2 overflows or negative transitions occur at T2EX when EXEN2 = 1. When
either RCLK or TCLK = 1, this bit is ignored and the timer is forced to auto-reload on Timer 2 overflow.

Dual Data Pointer Registers To facilitate accessing both
internal EEPROM and external data memory, two banks of
16 bit Data Pointer Registers are provided: DP0 at SFR
address locations 82H-83H and DP1 at 84H-85H. Bit DPS
= 0 in SFR WMCON selects DP0 and DPS = 1 selects
DP1. The user should always initialize the DPS bit to the
appropriate value before accessing the respective Data
Pointer Register.
Power Off Flag The Power Off Flag (POF) is located at
bit_4 (PCON.4) in the PCON SFR. POF is set to “1” during
power up. It can be set and reset under software control
and is not affected by RESET.

EEMWE
EEPROM Data Memory Write Enable Bit. Set this bit to “1” before initiating byte write to on-chip EEPROM with the
MOVX instruction. User software should set this bit to “0” after EEPROM write is completed.
EEMEN
Internal EEPROM Access Enable. When EEMEN = 1, the MOVX instruction with DPTR will access on-chip EEPROM
instead of external data memory. When EEMEN = 0, MOVX with DPTR accesses external data memory.
DPS
Data Pointer Register Select. DPS = 0 selects the first bank of Data Pointer Register, DP0, and DPS = 1 selects the
second bank, DP1
WDTRST
RDY/BSY
Watchdog Timer Reset and EEPROM Ready/Busy Flag. Each time this bit is set to “1” by user software, a pulse is
generated to reset the watchdog timer. The WDTRST bit is then automatically reset to “0” in the next instruction cycle.
The WDTRST bit is Write-Only. This bit also serves as the RDY/BSY flag in a Read-Only mode during EEPROM write.
RDY/BSY = 1 means that the EEPROM is ready to be programmed. While programming operations are being executed,
the RDY/BSY bit equals “0” and is automatically reset to “1” when programming is completed.
WDTEN
Watchdog Timer Enable Bit. WDTEN = 1 enables the watchdog timer and WDTEN = 0 disables the watchdog timer.

Data Memory—EEPROM and RAM
Programmable Watchdog Timer
The AT89S8252 implements 2K bytes of on-chip EEPROM
for data storage and 256 bytes of RAM. The upper 128
bytes of RAM occupy a parallel space to the Special Function Registers. That means the upper 128 bytes have the
same addresses as the SFR space but are physically separate from SFR space.
When an instruction accesses an internal location above
address 7FH, the address mode used in the instruction
specifies whether the CPU accesses the upper 128 bytes
of RAM or the SFR space. Instructions that use direct
addressing access SFR space.
For example, the following direct addressing instruction
accesses the SFR at location 0A0H (which is P2).
The programmable Watchdog Timer (WDT) operates from
an independent oscillator. The prescaler bits, PS0, PS1
and PS2 in SFR WMCON are used to set the period of the
Watchdog Timer from 16 ms to 2048 ms. The available
timer periods are shown in the following table and the
actual timer periods (at VCC = 5V) are within ±30% of the
nominal.
The WDT is disabled by Power-on Reset and during Power
Down. It is enabled by setting the WDTEN bit in SFR
WMCON (address = 96H). The WDT is reset by setting the
WDTRST bit in WMCON. When the WDT times out without
being reset or disabled, an internal RST pulse is generated
to reset the CPU.
Table 7. Watchdog Timer Period Selection
MOV 0A0H, #data
Instructions that use indirect addressing access the upper
128 bytes of RAM. For example, the following indirect
addressing instruction, where R0 contains 0A0H, accesses
the data byte at address 0A0H, rather than P2 (whose
address is 0A0H).

Note that stack operations are examples of indirect
addressing, so the upper 128 bytes of data RAM are available as stack space.
The on-chip EEPROM data memory is selected by setting
the EEMEN bit in the WMCON register at SFR address
location 96H. The EEPROM address range is from 000H to
7FFH. The MOVX instructions are used to access the
EEPROM. To access off-chip data memory with the MOVX
instructions, the EEMEN bit needs to be set to “0”.
The EEMWE bit in the WMCON register needs to be set to
“1” before any byte location in the EEPROM can be written.
User software should reset EEMWE bit to “0” if no further
EEPROM write is required. EEPROM write cycles in the
serial programming mode are self-timed and typically take
2.5 ms. The progress of EEPROM write can be monitored
by reading the RDY/BSY bit (read-only) in SFR WMCON.
RDY/BSY = 0 means programming is still in progress and
RDY/BSY = 1 means EEPROM write cycle is completed
and another write cycle can be initiated.
In addition, during EEPROM programming, an attempted
read from the EEPROM will fetch the byte being written
with the MSB complemented. Once the write cycle is completed, true data are valid at all bit locations.

Timer 2
Timer 2 is a 16 bit Timer/Counter that can operate as either
a timer or an event counter. The type of operation is
selected by bit C/T2 in the SFR T2CON (shown in Table 2).
Timer 2 has three operating modes: capture, auto-reload
(up or down counting), and baud rate generator. The
modes are selected by bits in T2CON, as shown in Table 8.
Timer 2 consists of two 8-bit registers, TH2 and TL2. In the
Timer function, the TL2 register is incremented every
machine cycle. Since a machine cycle consists of 12 oscillator periods, the count rate is 1/12 of the oscillator frequency.
In the Counter function, the register is incremented in
response to a 1-to-0 transition at its corresponding external
input pin, T2. In this function, the external input is sampled
during S5P2 of every machine cycle. When the samples
show a high in one cycle and a low in the next cycle, the
count is incremented. The new count value appears in the
register during S3P1 of the cycle following the one in which
the transition was detected. Since two machine cycles (24
oscillator periods) are required to recognize a 1-to-0 transition, the maximum count rate is 1/24 of the oscillator frequency. To ensure that a given level is sampled at least
once before it changes, the level should be held for at least
one full machine cycle.
MODE
Capture Mode
In the capture mode, two options are selected by bit
EXEN2 in T2CON. If EXEN2 = 0, Timer 2 is a 16 bit timer
or counter which upon overflow sets bit TF2 in T2CON.
This bit can then be used to generate an interrupt. If
EXEN2 = 1, Timer 2 performs the same operation, but a lto-0 transition at external input T2EX also causes the current value in TH2 and TL2 to be captured into RCAP2H and
RCAP2L, respectively. In addition, the transition at T2EX
causes bit EXF2 in T2CON to be set. The EXF2 bit, like
TF2, can generate an interrupt. The capture mode is illustrated in Figure 1.
Auto-Reload (Up or Down Counter)
Timer 2 can be programmed to count up or down when
configured in its 16 bit auto-reload mode. This feature is
invoked by the DCEN (Down Counter Enable) bit located in
the SFR T2MOD (see Table 9). Upon reset, the DCEN bit
is set to 0 so that timer 2 will default to count up. When
DCEN is set, Timer 2 can count up or down, depending on
the value of the T2EX pin.
Figure 2 shows Timer 2 automatically counting up when
DCEN = 0. In this mode, two options are selected by bit
EXEN2 in T2CON. If EXEN2 = 0, Timer 2 counts up to

0FFFFH and then sets the TF2 bit upon overflow. The overflow also causes the timer registers to be reloaded with the
16 bit value in RCAP2H and RCAP2L. The values in
RCAP2H and RCAP2L are preset by software. If EXEN2 =
1, a 16 bit reload can be triggered either by an overflow or
by a 1-to-0 transition at external input T2EX. This transition
also sets the EXF2 bit. Both the TF2 and EXF2 bits can
generate an interrupt if enabled.
Setting the DCEN bit enables Timer 2 to count up or down,
as shown in Figure 3. In this mode, the T2EX pin controls
the direction of the count. A logic 1 at T2EX makes Timer 2
count up. The timer will overflow at 0FFFFH and set the
TF2 bit. This overflow also causes the 16 bit value in
RCAP2H and RCAP2L to be reloaded into the timer registers, TH2 and TL2, respectively.
A logic 0 at T2EX makes Timer 2 count down. The timer
underflows when TH2 and TL2 equal the values stored in
RCAP2H and RCAP2L. The underflow sets the TF2 bit and
causes 0FFFFH to be reloaded into the timer registers.
The EXF2 bit toggles whenever Timer 2 overflows or
underflows and can be used as a 17th bit of resolution. In
this operating mode, EXF2 does not flag an interrupt.

Baud Rate Generator
Timer 2 is selected as the baud rate generator by setting
TCLK and/or RCLK in T2CON (Table 2). Note that the baud
rates for transmit and receive can be different if Timer 2 is
used for the receiver or transmitter and Timer 1 is used for
the other function. Setting RCLK and/or TCLK puts Timer 2
into its baud rate generator mode, as shown in Figure 4.
The baud rate generator mode is similar to the auto-reload
mode, in that a rollover in TH2 causes the Timer 2 registers
to be reloaded with the 16 bit value in registers RCAP2H
and RCAP2L, which are preset by software.
The baud rates in Modes 1 and 3 are determined by Timer
2’s overflow rate according to the following equation.
Timer 2 Overflow Rate
Modes 1 and 3 Baud Rates = -----------------------------------------------------------16
The Timer can be configured for either timer or counter
operation. In most applications, it is configured for timer
operation (CP/T2 = 0). The timer operation is different for
Timer 2 when it is used as a baud rate generator. Normally,
as a timer, it increments every machine cycle (at 1/12 the
oscillator frequency). As a baud rate generator, however, it
increments every state time (at 1/2 the oscillator frequency). The baud rate formula is given below.
Modes 1 and 3
Oscillator Frequency
--------------------------------------- = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Baud Rate
32 × [ 65536 – ( RCAP2H,RCAP2L ) ]
where (RCAP2H, RCAP2L) is the content of RCAP2H and
RCAP2L taken as a 16 bit unsigned integer.
Timer 2 as a baud rate generator is shown in Figure 4. This
figure is valid only if RCLK or TCLK = 1 in T2CON. Note
that a rollover in TH2 does not set TF2 and will not generate an interrupt. Note too, that if EXEN2 is set, a 1-to-0
transition in T2EX will set EXF2 but will not cause a reload
from (RCAP2H, RCAP2L) to (TH2, TL2). Thus when Timer
2 is in use as a baud rate generator, T2EX can be used as
an extra external interrupt.
Note that when Timer 2 is running (TR2 = 1) as a timer in
the baud rate generator mode, TH2 or TL2 should not be
read from or written to. Under these conditions, the Timer is
incremented every state time, and the results of a read or
write may not be accurate. The RCAP2 registers may be
read but should not be written to, because a write might
overlap a reload and cause write and/or reload errors. The
timer should be turned off (clear TR2) before accessing the
Timer 2 or RCAP2 registers.
Figure 5. Timer 2 in Clock-Out Mode
4-117
Programmable Clock Out
UART
A 50% duty cycle clock can be programmed to come out on
P1.0, as shown in Figure 5. This pin, besides being a regular I/0 pin, has two alternate functions. It can be programmed to input the external clock for Timer/Counter 2 or
to output a 50% duty cycle clock ranging from 61 Hz to 4
MHz at a 16 MHz operating frequency.
To configure the Timer/Counter 2 as a clock generator, bit
C/T2 (T2CON.1) must be cleared and bit T2OE (T2MOD.1)
must be set. Bit TR2 (T2CON.2) starts and stops the timer.
The clock-out frequency depends on the oscillator frequency and the reload value of Timer 2 capture registers
(RCAP2H, RCAP2L), as shown in the following equation.
The UART in the AT89S8252 operates the same way as
the UART in the AT89C51, AT89C52 and AT89C55. For
further information, see the October 1995 Microcontroller
Data Book, page 2-49, section titled, “Serial Interface.”
Serial Peripheral Interface
The serial peripheral interface (SPI) allows high-speed synchronous data transfer between the AT89S8252 and
peripheral devices or between several AT89S8252
devices. The AT89S8252 SPI features include the following:
• Full-Duplex, 3-Wire Synchronous Data Transfer
• Master or Slave Operation
• 1.5-MHz Bit Frequency (max.)
• LSB First or MSB First Data Transfer
• Four Programmable Bit Rates
• End of Transmission Interrupt Flag
• Write Collision Flag Protection
• Wakeup from Idle Mode (Slave Mode Only)
Oscillator Frequency
Clock Out Frequency = ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------4 × [ 65536 – ( RCAP2H,RCAP2L ) ]
In the clock-out mode, Timer 2 rollovers will not generate
an interrupt. This behavior is similar to when Timer 2 is
used as a baud-rate generator. It is possible to use Timer 2
as a baud-rate generator and a clock generator simultaneously. Note, however, that the baud-rate and clock-out
frequencies cannot be determined independently from one
another since they both use RCAP2H and RCAP2L.

The interconnection between master and slave CPUs with
SPI is shown in the following figure. The SCK pin is the
clock output in the master mode but is the clock input in the
slave mode. Writing to the SPI data register of the master
CPU starts the SPI clock generator, and the data written
shifts out of the MOSI pin and into the MOSI pin of the
slave CPU. After shifting one byte, the SPI clock generator
stops, setting the end of transmission flag (SPIF). If both
the SPI interrupt enable bit (SPIE) and the serial port interrupt enable bit (ES) are set, an interrupt is requested.
The Slave Select input, SS/P1.4, is set low to select an
individual SPI device as a slave. When SS/P1.4 is set high,
the SPI port is deactivated and the MOSI/P1.5 pin can be
used as an input.
There are four combinations of SCK phase and polarity
with respect to serial data, which are determined by control
bits CPHA and CPOL. The SPI data transfer formats are
shown in Figures 8 and 9.

Interrupts
The AT89S8252 has a total of six interrupt vectors: two
external interrupts (INT0 and INT1), three timer interrupts
(Timers 0, 1, and 2), and the serial port interrupt. These
interrupts are all shown in Figure 10.
Each of these interrupt sources can be individually enabled
or disabled by setting or clearing a bit in Special Function
Register IE. IE also contains a global disable bit, EA, which
disables all interrupts at once.
Note that Table 10 shows that bit position IE.6 is unimplemented. In the AT89C51, bit position IE.5 is also unimplemented. User software should not write 1s to these bit positions, since they may be used in future AT89 products.
Timer 2 interrupt is generated by the logical OR of bits TF2
and EXF2 in register T2CON. Neither of these flags is
cleared by hardware when the service routine is vectored
to. In fact, the service routine may have to determine
whether it was TF2 or EXF2 that generated the interrupt,
and that bit will have to be cleared in software.
The Timer 0 and Timer 1 flags, TF0 and TF1, are set at
S5P2 of the cycle in which the timers overflow. The values
are then polled by the circuitry in the next cycle. However,
the Timer 2 flag, TF2, is set at S2P2 and is polled in the
same cycle in which the timer overflows.

internal reset algorithm takes control. On-chip hardware
inhibits access to internal RAM in this event, but access to
the port pins is not inhibited. To eliminate the possibility of
an unexpected write to a port pin when idle mode is terminated by a reset, the instruction following the one that
invokes idle mode should not write to a port pin or to external memory.
XTAL1 and XTAL2 are the input and output, respectively,
of an inverting amplifier that can be configured for use as
an on-chip oscillator, as shown in Figure 11. Either a quartz
crystal or ceramic resonator may be used. To drive the
device from an external clock source, XTAL2 should be left
unconnected while XTAL1 is driven, as shown in Figure 12.
There are no requirements on the duty cycle of the external
clock signal, since the input to the internal clocking circuitry
is through a divide-by-two flip-flop, but minimum and maximum voltage high and low time specifications must be
observed.
Power Down Mode
In the power down mode, the oscillator is stopped and the
instruction that invokes power down is the last instruction
executed. The on-chip RAM and Special Function Registers retain their values until the power down mode is terminated. Exit from power down can be initiated either by a
hardware reset or by an enabled external interrupt. Reset
redefines the SFRs but does not change the on-chip RAM.
The reset should not be activated before VCC is restored to
its normal operating level and must be held active long
enough to allow the oscillator to restart and stabilize.
To exit power down via an interrupt, the external interrupt
must be enabled as level sensitive before entering power
down. The interrupt service routine starts at 16 ms (nominal) after the enabled interrupt pin is activated.
Idle Mode
In idle mode, the CPU puts itself to sleep while all the onchip peripherals remain active. The mode is invoked by
software. The content of the on-chip RAM and all the special functions registers remain unchanged during this
mode. The idle mode can be terminated by any enabled
interrupt or by a hardware reset.
Note that when idle mode is terminated by a hardware
reset, the device normally resumes program execution
from where it left off, up to two machine cycles before the

Program Memory Lock Bits
The AT89S8252 has three lock bits that can be left unprogrammed (U) or can be programmed (P) to obtain the additional features listed in the following table.
When lock bit 1 is programmed, the logic level at the EA pin
is sampled and latched during reset. If the device is powered up without a reset, the latch initializes to a random
value and holds that value until reset is activated. The
latched value of EA must agree with the current logic level
at that pin in order for the device to function properly.
Once programmed, the lock bits can only be unprogrammed with the Chip Erase operations in either the parallel or serial modes.

Programming the Flash and EEPROM
Parallel Programming Algorithm
Atmel’s AT89S8252 Flash Microcontroller offers 8K bytes
of in-system reprogrammable Flash Code memory and 2K
bytes of EEPROM Data memory.
The AT89S8252 is normally shipped with the on-chip Flash
Code and EEPROM Data memory arrays in the erased
state (i.e. contents = FFH) and ready to be programmed.
This device supports a High-Voltage (12V) Parallel programming mode and a Low-Voltage (5V) Serial programming mode. The serial programming mode provides a convenient way to download the AT89S8252 inside the user’s
system. The parallel programming mode is compatible with
conventional third party Flash or EPROM programmers.
The Code and Data memory arrays are mapped via separate address spaces in the serial programming mode. In
the parallel programming mode, the two arrays occupy one
contiguous address space: 0000H to 1FFFH for the Code
array and 2000H to 27FFH for the Data array.
The Code and Data memory arrays on the AT89S8252 are
programmed byte-by-byte in either programming mode. An
auto-erase cycle is provided with the self-timed programming operation in the serial programming mode. There is
no need to perform the Chip Erase operation to reprogram
any memory location in the serial programming mode
unless any of the lock bits have been programmed.
In the parallel programming mode, there is no auto-erase
cycle. To reprogram any non-blank byte, the user needs to
use the Chip Erase operation first to erase both arrays.
To program and verify the AT89S8252 in the parallel programming mode, the following sequence is recommended:
1. Power-up sequence:
Apply power between VCC and GND pins.
Set RST pin to “H”.
Apply a 3 MHz to 24 MHz clock to XTAL1 pin and wait
for at least 10 milliseconds.
2. Set PSEN pin to “L”
ALE pin to “H”
EA pin to “H” and all other pins to “H”.
3. Apply the appropriate combination of “H” or “L” logic
levels to pins P2.6, P2.7, P3.6, P3.7 to select one of the
programming operations shown in the Flash Programming Modes table.
4. Apply the desired byte address to pins P1.0 to P1.7
and P2.0 to P2.5.
Apply data to pins P0.0 to P0.7 for Write Code operation.
5. Raise EA/VPP to 12V to enable Flash programming,
erase or verification.
6. Pulse ALE/PROG once to program a byte in the Code
memory array, the Data memory array or the lock bits.
The byte-write cycle is self-timed and typically takes
1.5 ms.
7. To verify the byte just programmed, bring pin P2.7 to
“L” and read the programmed data at pins P0.0 to P0.7.
4-122
AT89S8252
AT89S8252
8. Repeat steps 3 through 7 changing the address and
data for the entire 2K or 8K bytes array or until the end
of the object file is reached.
9. Power-off sequence:
Set XTAL1 to “L”.
Set RST and EA pins to “L”.
Turn VCC power off.
In the parallel programming mode, there is no auto-erase
cycle and to reprogram any non-blank byte, the user needs
to use the Chip Erase operation first to erase both arrays.
DATA Polling
The AT89S8252 features DATA Polling to indicate the end
of a write cycle. During a write cycle in the parallel or serial
programming mode, an attempted read of the last byte written will result in the complement of the written datum on
P0.7 (parallel mode), and on the MSB of the serial output
byte on MISO (serial mode). Once the write cycle has been
completed, true data are valid on all outputs, and the next
cycle may begin. DATA Polling may begin any time after a
write cycle has been initiated.
Ready/Busy
The progress of byte programming in the parallel programming mode can also be monitored by the RDY/BSY output
signal. Pin P3.4 is pulled Low after ALE goes High during
programming to indicate BUSY. P3.4 is pulled High again
when programming is done to indicate READY.
Program Verify
If lock bits LB1 and LB2 have not been programmed, the
programmed Code or Data byte can be read back via the
address and data lines for verification. The state of the lock
bits can also be verified directly in the parallel programming
mode. In the serial programming mode, the state of the lock
bits can only be verified indirectly by observing that the lock
bit features are enabled.
Chip Erase
Both Flash and EEPROM arrays are erased electrically at
the same time. In the parallel programming mode, chip
erase is initiated by using the proper combination of control
signals and by holding ALE/PROG low for 10 ms. The
Code and Data arrays are written with all “1”s in the Chip
Erase operation.
In the serial programming mode, a chip erase operation is
initiated by issuing the Chip Erase instruction. In this mode,
chip erase is self-timed and takes about 16 ms.
During chip erase, a serial read from any address location
will return 00H at the data outputs.
Serial Programming Fuse
A programmable fuse is available to disable Serial Programming if the user needs maximum system security. The
Serial Programming Fuse can only be programmed or
erased in the Parallel Programming Mode.
The AT89S8252 is shipped with the Serial Programming
Mode enabled.
Reading the Signature Bytes: The signature bytes are
read by the same procedure as a normal verification of
locations 030H and 031H, except that P3.6 and P3.7 must
be pulled to a logic low. The values returned are as follows:
(030H) = 1EH indicates manufactured by Atmel
(031H) = 72H indicates 89S8252
Programming Interface
Every code byte in the Flash and EEPROM arrays can be
written, and the entire array can be erased, by using the
appropriate combination of control signals. The write operation cycle is self-timed and once initiated, will automatically time itself to completion.
All major programming vendors offer worldwide support for
the Atmel microcontroller series. Please contact your local
programming vendor for the appropriate software revision.
Serial Downloading
Both the Code and Data memory arrays can be programmed using the serial SPI bus while RST is pulled to
VCC. The serial interface consists of pins SCK, MOSI (input)
and MISO (output). After RST is set high, the Programming
Enable instruction needs to be executed first before program/erase operations can be executed.
An auto-erase cycle is built into the self-timed programming
operation (in the serial mode ONLY) and there is no need
to first execute the Chip Erase instruction unless any of the
lock bits have been programmed. The Chip Erase operation turns the content of every memory location in both the
Code and Data arrays into FFH.
The Code and Data memory arrays have separate address
spaces:
0000H to 1FFFH for Code memory and 000H to 7FFH for
Data memory.
Either an external system clock is supplied at pin XTAL1 or
a crystal needs to be connected across pins XTAL1 and
XTAL2. The maximum serial clock (SCK) frequency should
be less than 1/40 of the crystal frequency. With a 24 MHz
oscillator clock, the maximum SCK frequency is 600 kHz.

Serial Programming Algorithm
To program and verify the AT89S8252 in the serial programming mode, the following sequence is recommended:
1. Power-up sequence:
Apply power between VCC and GND pins.
Set RST pin to “H”.
If a crystal is not connected across pins XTAL1 and
XTAL2, apply a 3 MHz to 24 MHz clock to XTAL1 pin
and wait for at least 10 milliseconds.
2. Enable serial programming by sending the Programming Enable serial instruction to pin MOSI/P1.5. The
frequency of the shift clock supplied at pin SCK/P1.7
needs to be less than the CPU clock at XTAL1 divided
by 40.
3. The Code or Data array is programmed one byte at a
time by supplying the address and data together with
the appropriate Write instruction. The selected memory
location is first automatically erased before new data is
written. The write cycle is self-timed and typically takes
less than 2.5 ms at 5V.
4. Any memory location can be verified by using the Read
instruction which returns the content at the selected
address at serial output MISO/P1.6.
5. At the end of a programming session, RST can be set
low to commence normal operation.
Power-off sequence (if needed):
Set XTAL1 to “L” (if a crystal is not used).
Set RST to “L”.
Turn VCC power off.
