MEC140X/1X
1.0
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MEC140X/1X is a family of keyboard and embedded controller designs customized for notebooks and tablet platforms. The MEC140X/1X family is a highly-configurable, mixed signal, advanced I/O controller architecture. Every
device in the family incorporates a 32-bit MIPS32 M14K Microcontroller core with a closely-coupled SRAM for code and
data. A secure boot-loader is used to download the custom firmware image from the system’s shared SPI Flash device,
thereby allowing system designers to customize the device’s behavior.
The MEC140X/1X products may be configured to communicate with the system host through one of three host interfaces: Intel Low Pin Count (LPC), eSPI, or I2C. Note that this functionality is product dependent. To see which features
apply to a specific part in the family see Products on page 3. The document defines the features for all devices in the
family.
The MEC140X/1X products are designed to operate as either a stand-alone I/O device or as an EC Base Component
of a split-architecture Advanced I/O Controller system which uses BC-Link communication protocol to access up to two
BC bus companion components. The BC-Link protocol is peer-to-peer providing communication between the
MEC140X/1X embedded controller and registers located in a companion device.
The MEC140X/1X is directly powered by a minimum of two separate suspend supply planes (VBAT and VTR) and
senses a third runtime power plane (VCC) to provide “instant on’ and system power management functions. In addition,
this family of products has the option to connect the VTR_33_18 power pin to either a 3.3V VTR power supply or a 1.8V
power supply. This option may only be used with the eSPI Host Interface or the I2C Host Interface. In systems using the
I2C Host Interface, ten GPIOs are powered by VTR_33_18, thereby allowing them to operate at either 3.3V or 1.8V. All
the devices are equipped with a Power Management Interface that supports low-power states and are capable of operating in a Connected Standby system.
The MEC140X/1X family of devices offer a software development system interface that includes a Trace FIFO Debug
port, a host accessible serial debug port with a 16C550A register interface, a Port 80 BIOS Debug Port, and an In-circuit
Serial Programming (ICSP) interface.
1.1
Boot ROM
Following the release of the EC_PROC_RESET# signal, the processor will start executing code in the Boot ROM. The
Boot ROM executes the SPI Flash Loader, which downloads User Code from an external SPI Flash and stores it in the
internal Code RAM. Upon completion, the Boot ROM jumps into the User Code and starts executing.
1.2
Initialize Host Interface
By default, this device powers up all the interfaces, except the VBAT powered interfaces and select signals, to GPIO
inputs. The Boot ROM is used to download code from an external flash via either the Shared Flash Interface, the eSPI
flash channel or the Private Flash Interface. The downloaded code must configure the device’s pins according to the
platform’s needs. This includes initializing the Host Interface.
Once the device is configured for operation, the downloaded code must deassert the system’s RSMRST# (Resume
Reset) signal. Any GPIO may be selected for the RSMRST# function. This is up to the system board designer. The only
requirement is that the board designer attach an external pull-down on the GPIO pin being used for the RSMRST# function. This will ensure the RSMRST# pin is asserted low by default and does not glitch during power-up.
This family of devices has up to three Host Interface options. It may be configured as an LPC Device, an eSPI Device,
or I2C device. See Products on page 3 for the features supported in each device.
On a VTR POR, all the host interface pins default to GPIO inputs.
1.2.1
CONFIGURE LPC INTERFACE
The downloaded firmware must configure the GPIO Pin Control registers for the LPC alternate function, configure the
LPC Base Address Register (BAR), and activate the LPC block.
Example:
•
•
•
•
•
•
GPIO034 Pin Control Register = 0x1000;
GPIO040 Pin Control Register = 0x1000;
GPIO041 Pin Control Register = 0x1000;
GPIO042 Pin Control Register = 0x1000;
GPIO043 Pin Control Register = 0x1000;
GPIO044 Pin Control Register = 0x1000;

//ALT FUNC1 – CLKRUN
LPC Interface (Configuration Port) BAR = 0x002E_8C01;
//set bit 15
LPC Activate Register = 0x01;
1.2.2
CONFIGURE ESPI INTERFACE
The downloaded firmware must configure the GPIO Pin Control registers for the eSPI alternate function, configure the
eSPI I/O Component (Configuration Port) Base Address Register (BAR), and activate the eSPI block.
Example:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
GPIO034 Pin Control Register = 0x2000;
//ALT FUNC2 – ESPI_CLK
GPIO044 Pin Control Register = 0x2000;
//ALT FUNC2 – ESPI_CS#
GPIO040 Pin Control Register = 0x2000;
//ALT FUNC2 – ESPI_IO0
GPIO041 Pin Control Register = 0x2000;
//ALT FUNC2 – ESPI_IO1
GPIO042 Pin Control Register = 0x2000;
//ALT FUNC2 – ESPI_IO2
GPIO043 Pin Control Register = 0x2000;
//ALT FUNC2 – ESPI_IO3
GPIO063 Pin Control Register = 0x2000;
//ALT FUNC2 – ESPI_ALERT#
GPIO061 Pin Control Register = 0x2000;
//ALT FUNC2 – ESPI_RESET#
eSPI I/O Component (Configuration Port) BAR = 0x002E_0001;
//set bit 15
eSPI Activate Register = 0x01;
1.2.3
CONFIGURE I2C INTERFACE
Similar to the LPC and eSPI interfaces, the downloaded firmware must configure the GPIO Pin Control registers for the
SMBus alternate function and activate the associated SMB/I2C Controller.
1.3
Initialize Peripheral Interfaces
This will be system dependent, however, this section outlines some recommendations when enabling certain interfaces.
1.3.1
KEYBOARD SCAN INTERFACE
The Keyboard Scan Interface has been multiplexed onto GPIO pins. Internal pull-up resistors, enabled via the GPIO Pin
Control Registers", may be used on the KSI and KSO pins instead of external pull-ups. However, if internal pull-ups are
used then the PreDrive Mode must be enabled. The GPIO Pin Control register format is defined in Section 22.6.1.1,
"Pin Control Register," on page 335. The PreDrive Mode is defined in Section 30.10.2, "PreDrive Mode," on page 411.

The Internal Embedded Controller can access any register in the EC Address Space or Host Address Space. The LPC
and eSPI Host Controllers can directly access peripheral registers in the Host Address Space. If the I2C interface is
used as the Host Interface, access to all the IP Peripherals is dependent on the EC firmware.
Note:
The eSPI and LPC Host Controllers also have access to the SRAM data space via the SRAM Memory
BARs, which is not illustrated below.

PIN NAMING CONVENTIONS
Pin Name is composed of the multiplexed options separated by ‘/’. E.g., GPIOxxxx/SignalA/SignalB.
The first signal shown in a pin name is the default signal. E.g., GPIOxxxx/SignalA/SignalB means the GPIO is
the default signal.
Parenthesis ‘()’ are used to list aliases or alternate functionality for a single mux option. E.g. GPIOxxx(Alias)/SignalA/SignalB. The Alias is the intended usage for a specific GPIO. E.g., GPIOxxx(ICSP_DATA) is intended to
indicate that ICSP_DATA signal may come out on this pin when the Mux Control is set for GPIOxxx. In this case,
enabling the test mode takes precedence over the Mux Control selection.
Square brackets ‘[ ]’ are used to indicate there is a Strap Option on a pin. This is always shown as the last signal
on the Pin Name.
Signal Names appended with a numeric value indicates the Instance Number, except for SMBus Pins. E.g.,
PWM0, PWM1, etc. indicates that PWM0 is the PWM output for PWM Instance 0, PWM1 is the PWM output for
PWM Instance 1, etc. Note that this same instance number is shown in the Register Base Address tables linking
the specific PWM block instance to a specific signal on the pinout. The instance number may be omitted if there
in only one instance of the IP block implemented.

2.3
The numeric value appended to the end of the SMBus pins indicates they are 1.8V I/O signaling. E.g.
SMB03_DATA vs SMB03_DATA18. The SMB03_DATA signal uses standard 3.3V I/O signaling. The
SMB03_DATA18 signal operates at 1.8V I/O signaling levels.
SMBus Port pins can be mapped to any SMB Controller. The number in the SMBus signal names (SMBxx_DATA)
indicates the port value. E.g. SMB01_DATA represents SMBus Data Port 1
Notes for Tables in this Chapter
Note
Description
Note 1
The LAD and SER_IRQ pins require an external weak pull-up resistor of 10k-100k ohms.
Note 2
The ICSP_MCLR pin is used to enable JTAG. There is an internal pull-up on this pin to keep it
from entering debug mode. When debug mode is entered the ICSP_DATA and ICSP_CLOCK
signals are automatically enabled on their respective pins. The System Board Designer should
leave the ICSP_MCLR pin as a no-connect.
Note 3
An external cap must be connected as close to the CAP pin/ball as possible with a routing
resistance and CAP ESR of less than 100mohms. The capacitor value is 1uF and must be
ceramic with X5R or X7R dielectric. The cap pin/ball should remain on the top layer of the PCB
and traced to the CAP. Avoid adding vias to other layers to minimize inductance.
Note 4
This SMBus ports supports 1 Mbps operation as defined by I2C. For 1 Mbps I2C recommended capacitance/pull-up relationships from Intel, refer to the Shark Bay platform guide,
Intel ref number 486714. Refer to the PCH - SMBus 2.0/SMLink Interface Design Guidelines,
Table 20-5 Bus Capacitance/Pull-Up Resistor Relationship.
Note 5
RESET_OUT# pin must be pulled to ground via an external 8.2k ohm resistor. This will ensure
the glitch-free tristate GPIO input will not glitch high on a power on reset (POR) event.
Note 6
In order to achieve the lowest leakage current when both PECI and SB TSI are not used, set
the VREF_CPU Disable bit to 1.
Note 7
The BC DAT pin requires a weak pull up resistor (100 K Ohms).
Note 8
The voltage on the ADC pins must not exceed 3.6 V or damage to the device will occur.
Note 9
The XTAL1 pin should be left floating when using the XTAL2 pin for the single ended clock
input.
Note 10
The Boot ROM manipulates the pins associated with the Shared SPI interface and the Private
SPI interface to access the external flash. Before exiting, the Boot ROM tristates these interfaces by returning them to their default hardware state (i.e., GPIO input).
Note 11
When the SMBxx_xxxx18 functions are selected, the pins operate at 1.8V I/O signal levels.
Note 12
The GPIO assignment on this pin only provides interrupt and wakeup capability. This is provided by the Interrupt Detection field in the Pin Control register. The Mux control field in the Pin
Control Register should not be set to 00 = GPIO or undesirable results may occur. In order to
emphasize the prohibition on using the GPIO Signal Pin Function, the Pin Chapter does not list
the GPIO signal pin function assigned to this pin; however, the GPIO chapter does so the interrupt can be used.
Note 13
This signal is a test signal used to detect when the internal 48MHz clock is toggling or stopped
in heavy and deepest sleep modes.
Note 14
The VCI pins may be used as GPIOs. The VCI input signals are not gated by selecting the
GPIO alternate function. Firmware must disable (i.e., gate) these inputs by writing the bits in
the VCI Input Enable Register when the GPIO function is enabled.
Note 15
The KSI and KSO Key Scan pins require pull-up resistors. The system designer may opt to
use either use the internal pull-up resistors or populate external pull-up resistors.

MEC140X/1X
Note
Description
Note 16
If the eSPI Flash Channel is used for booting, the GPIO123/SHD_CS# pin must be used as
RSMRST#. This pin will be driven high by the boot ROM code in order to activate the eSPI
flash channel. If the SHD_SPI port is used for booting, then any unused GPIO may be used for
RSMRST#.
Note 17
If the eSPI Flash Channel is used for booting, the GPIO135/SHD_IO2 pin must be used to
determine that the primary power rails are stable before RSMRST# can be de-asserted. See
the MEC140X/1X eSPI Addendum document for more details.

Pin Lists
Note:
The GPIO Pin Control registers for the Pads that are not bonded out to pins or balls in the smaller package
have been defaulted to their inactive state and are read-only. These pins cannot be modified by the downloaded firmware located in SRAM. No special handling required.

Non Backdrive Protected Pins
TABLE 2-1: lists pins which do not have backdrive protection. If the power supply used to power the buffer of the pin
(VTR or VTR_33_18) is off none of these pins are allowed to be above 0V to prevent back-drive onto the associated
power supply. The Power Supply used to power the buffer is shown in the Signal Power Well column of the Pin Multiplexing Tables in Section 2.0 “Pin Configuration”.

Pin Multiplexing
Multifunction Pin Multiplexing in the MEC140X/1X is controlled by the GPIO Interface and illustrated in the Pin Multiplexing Table in this section. See Section 2.3, "Notes for Tables in this Chapter," on page 13 for notes that are referenced in the Pin Multiplexing Table. See Pin Control Register on page 335 for Pin Multiplexing programming details.
Pin signal functions that exhibit power domain emulation (see Pin Multiplexing Table below) have a different power supply designation in the “Emulated Power Well” column and “Signal Power Well“ columns.
2.10.1
VCC POWER DOMAIN EMULATION
The System Runtime Supply power VCC is not connected to the MEC140X/1X. The VCC_PWRGD signal is used to
indicate when power is applied to the System Runtime Supply.
Pin signal functions with VCC power domain emulation are documented in the Pin Multiplexing Table as “Signal Power
Well“= VTR and “Emulated Power Well” = VCC. These pins are powered by VTR and controlled by the VCC_PWRGD
signal input. Outputs on VCC power domain emulation pin signal functions are tri-stated when VCC_PWRGD is not
asserted and are functional when VCC_PWRGD is active. Inputs on VCC power domain emulation pin signal functions
are gated according as defined by the Gated State column in the following tables.
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 31
MEC140X/1X
Power well emulation for GPIOs and for signals that are multiplexed with GPIO signals is controlled by the Power Gating
Signals field in the GPIO Pin Control Register.
2.10.2
PIN MULTIPLEXING TABLE
In the following table, the columns have the following meanings:
MUX
If the pin has an associated GPIO, then the MUX column refers to the Mux Control field in the GPIO Pin Control Register.
Setting the Mux Control field to value listed in the row will configure the pin for the signal listed in the Signal column on
the same row. The row marked “Default” is the setting that is assigned on system reset.
If there is no GPIO associated with a pin, then the pin has a single function.
SIGNAL
This column lists the signals that can appear on each pin, as configured by the MUX control.
BUFFER TYPE
Pin buffer types are defined in Table 42-5, “DC Electrical Characteristics,” on page 494.
Note that all GPIO pins are of buffer type PIO, which may be configured as input/output, push-pull/OD etc. via the GPIO
Pin Control Register and Pin Control Register 2. There are some pins where the buffer type is configured by the alternate
function selection, in which case that buffer type is shown in this column.
DEFAULT BUFFER OPERATION
This column gives the pin behavior following the power-up of VTR. All GPIO pins are programmable after this event.
This default pin behavior corresponds to the row marked “Default” in the MUX column.
SIGNAL POWER WELL
This column defines the power well that powers the pin.
EMULATED POWER WELL
Power well emulation for GPIOs and for signals that are multiplexed with GPIO signals is controlled by the Power Gating
Signals field in the GPIO Pin Control Register. Power well emulation for signals that are not multiplexed with GPIO signals is defined by the entries in this column. See Section 2.10.1, "VCC Power Domain Emulation".
GATED STATE
This column defines the internal value of an input signal when either its emulated power well is inactive or it is not
selected by the GPIO alternate function MUX. A value of “No Gate” means that the internal signal always follows the
pin even when the emulated power well is inactive.
Note:
Gated state is only meaningful to the operation of input signals. A gated state on an output pin defines the
internal behavior of the GPIO MUX and does not imply pin behavior.

Note 3-3
VTR power supply is always on while the battery pack or ac power is applied to the system.
Note 3-4
This device requires that the VBAT power is on when the VTR power supply is on. External circuitry,
a diode isolation circuit, is implemented on the motherboard to extend the battery life. This external
circuitry ensures the VBAT pin will derive power from the VTR power well when it is on. Therefore,
the VBAT supply will never appear to be off when the VTR rail is on. See APPLICATION NOTE: on
page 69.

Clocks
The following section defines the clocks that are generated and derived.

Note:
This clock may be used
when the external 32
kHz clock is unavailable,
and will allow the 48
MHz clock to reach frequency lock.
Internal Oscillator
Note:
This clock source is
enabled via the Clock
Enable Register on page
444.
Note 3-5
The chipset will not produce a valid 32 kHz clock until about 5 ms (PCH) or 110 ms (ICH) after the
deassertion of RSMRST#. See chipset specification for the actual timing.
Note 3-6
The 48 MHz Ring Oscillator will reach frequency lock if either the external 32kHz clock source or the
32 kHz Internal Oscillator is used, as selected via the 48MHz Oscillator Reference Select bit in the
Clock Enable Register on page 444. The external 32k Hz clock source provides a stable timebase
for the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator as well as the clock source for the 32 kHz Clock Domain. After VBAT
POR there is a 500ms max time for the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator to become accurate. See Section
43.2, "Clocking AC Timing Characteristics," on page 506.
Note 3-7
Without the external clock, the 48MHz clock will vary up to +/-4% which may affect the timing
parameters of certain blocks. In particular it may not be accurate enough to ensure that the UART
will work, depending on the accuracy of the clock of the external device.

Chip Power Management Features
This device is designed to always operate in its lowest power state during normal operation. In addition, this device
offers additional programmable options to put individual logical blocks to sleep as defined in Section 3.7.1, "Block Low
Power Modes," on page 76 and to gate off or power down the internal oscillator as described in Section 3.7.2, "Configuring the Chip’s Sleep States," on page 76.
3.7.1
BLOCK LOW POWER MODES
All power related control signals are generated and monitored centrally in the chip’s Power, Clocks, and Resets (PCR)
block. The power manager of the PCR block uses a sleep interface to communicate with all the blocks. The sleep interface consists of three signals:
• sleep_en (request to sleep the block) is generated by the PCR block. A group of sleep_en signals are generated for every clock segment. Each group consists of a sleep_en signal for every block in that clock segment.
• clk_req (request clock on) is generated by every block. They are grouped by blocks on the same clock segment.
The PCR monitors these signals to see when it can gate off clocks.
• reset_en (reset on sleep) bits determine if the block (including registers) will be reset when it enters sleep mode.
A block can always drive clk_req low synchronously, but it MUST drive it high asynchronously since its internal clocks
are gated and it has to assume that the clock input itself is gated. Therefore the block can only drive clk_req high as a
result of a register access or some other input signal.
The following table defines a block’s power management protocol:
Power State

High
Block is not IDLE and will stop requesting clocks and enter
sleep when it finishes what it is doing. This delay is block
specific, but should be less than 1 ms. The block gates its
own internal clock. After driving clk_req low, the block cannot request clocks again until sleep_en goes low.
Register access to a block is always available regardless of
sleep_en. Therefore the block ungates its internal clock and
drives clk_req high during the access. The block will regate
its internal clock and drive clk_req low when the access is
done.
A wake event clears all sleep enable bits momentarily, and then returns the sleep enable bits back to their original state.
The block that needs to respond to the wake event will do so. See Section 10.11.3, "Wake-Capable Interrupt Events,"
on page 167.
The Sleep Enable, Clock Required and Reset Enable registers are defined in Section 3.8, "EC-Only Registers," on
page 78.
3.7.2
CONFIGURING THE CHIP’S SLEEP STATES
The chip supports four sleep states: SYSTEM HEAVY SLEEP 1, SYSTEM HEAVY SLEEP 2, SYSTEM HEAVY SLEEP
3, SYSTEM DEEPEST SLEEP. The chip will enter one of these four sleep states only when all the blocks have been
commanded to sleep and none of them require the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator (i.e., all clock required status bits = 0), and
the processor has executed its sleep instruction. These sleep states must be selected by firmware via the System Sleep
Control bits implemented in the System Sleep Control Register (SYS_SLP_CNTRL) on page 86 prior to issuing the
sleep instruction. Table 3-12, “System Sleep Control Bit Encoding,” on page 87 defines each of these sleep states.
DS00001956D-page 76
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
MEC140X/1X
There are two ways to command the chip blocks to enter sleep.
1.
2.
Assert the Sleep All bit located in the System Sleep Control Register (SYS_SLP_CNTRL) on page 86
Assert all the individual block sleep enable bits
Blocks will only enter sleep after their sleep signal is asserted and they no longer require the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator
source. Each block has a corresponding clock required status bit indicating when the block has entered sleep. The general operation is that a block will keep the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator on until it completes its current transaction. Once the
block has completed its work, it deasserts its clock required signal. Blocks like timers, PWMs, etc. will deassert their
clock required signals immediately. See the individual block Low Power Mode sections to determine how each individual
block enters sleep.
3.7.3
DETERMINING WHEN THE CHIP IS SLEEPING
There are two methods to verify the chip’s clock has stopped, which indicates the device is in one of these three sleep
states: SYSTEM HEAVY SLEEP 2, SYSTEM HEAVY SLEEP 3, SYSTEM DEEPEST SLEEP. Note that the 48 MHz Ring
Oscillator continues to run in the SYSTEM HEAVY SLEEP 1 state to minimize wake latency.
Option 1: TST_CLK_OUT pin
The TST_CLK_OUT, which is located on the GPIO157/LED0/TST_CLK_OUT pin, is used to route the internal 48 MHz
Ring Oscillator to a pin. If the clock is toggling the chip is in the full on running state. if the clock is not toggling the chip
has entered the programmed sleep state.
Option 2: MTAP Test Bit
Bit [1] SLEEPING has been implemented in the MTAP registers (MCHP_CMD <0x07>) to allow the firmware developer
to determine if the chip is sleeping via the ICSP debug port. This MTAP command does not require the 48 MHz Ring
Oscillator to be clocking and therefore will not change the chip’s sleep state. Note that all of the ICSP debugger commands that access the processor JTAG port will bring the device out of sleep.
3.7.4
WAKING THE CHIP FROM SLEEPING STATE
The chip will remain in the configured sleep state until it detects either a wake event, an ICSP access, or a full VTR
POR. All the wake-capable interrupt events are defined in the Section 10.0, "Jump Table Vectored Interrupt Controller
(JTVIC)". They are identified as Wake Events in Table 10-2, “Interrupt Source, Enable Set, Enable Clear, and Result Bit
Assignments,” on page 169.
3.7.4.1
Wake-Only Events
Two GIRQ registers have been reserved for special wake events. GIRQ16 is used for wake-events that do not require
software processing. These events are used to turn the clock on so the peripherals can start processing the data. There
is no information for the firmware to process. When GIRQ16 is active the firmware can simply clear the source and
return to the sleep state. GIRQ22 is a duplicate of GIRQ16 with one major difference. GIRQ22 does not generate a processor interrupt. It only wakes the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator so the peripherals can start processing the data.
Example: LPC I/O Traffic targeting EMI block.
The LPC Interface detects traffic on the bus and requires the clock to be on to process the incoming data. If GIRQ22 is
enabled, the LPC block will be able to autonomously receive data for the programmed I/O ranges without processor
intervention. Once the data is loaded into the HOST-to-EC Mailbox Register the Host-to-EC IRQ will trigger an interrupt
to the embedded controller to service this command.
An alternate solution would be to enable the GIRQ16 LPC interrupt. The process is similar, except the embedded controller will receive an interrupt for the LPC activity, as well as the Host-to-EC IRQ, and will need to clear this event also.
3.7.4.2
ICSP Debugger Wake Events
The ICSP Debugger will cause the chip to wake and run debug code. Auto Clear Sleep and Sleep Debug bits have been
implemented to allow firmware to re-enter sleep following a debug access. It is recommended to set these bits to ‘1’ as
described in the following Application Note.
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 77
MEC140X/1X
APPLICATION NOTE: Methods for putting the device back to sleep after a debug access.
Option 1: Automatically Re-enter Sleep after Debug Wake Event (preferred)
To automatically re-enter sleep after a debug wake event the firmware should follow this recommended usage model
1. FW has decided to go to sleep.
2. Set sleep_all bit to command all blocks to sleep.
3. Set sleep_debug bit.
4. Set auto_clr_sleep to make sure sleep_all and sleep_debug will clear automatically when the processor vectors to an interrupt.
Note:
• Steps 2-4 can be done in one write to System Sleep Control Register (SYS_SLP_CNTRL) register.
• The sleep_all and the sleep_debug bits MUST not be set in an interrupt handler.
5. Issue processor sleep instuction. Note that you must use a do...while around the sleep instruction (WAIT) .
Stay in loop while sleep_debug bit is still set.
6. processor goes to sleep.
Option 2: Debug_Done Interrupt Event
Firmware can enable the Debug_Done interrupt event before issuing the processor sleep instruction. This bit is asserted
when the debugger accesses the device. However, the user code will not see this event until the debugger has completed its debug task. Once the user code sees this event the chip may be put back into a sleep state. Note that the
sleep control bits may have been modified by the debug activity, so some additional reprogramming may be necessary.

LPC INTERFACE
4.1
Introduction
The Intel® Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface is the LPC Interface used by the system host to configure the chip and communicate with the logical devices implemented in the design through a series of read/write registers. Register access is
accomplished through the LPC transfer cycles defined in Table 4-5, "LPC Cycle Types Supported".
The Logical Devices implemented in the design are identified in Table 4-14, “I/O Base Address Registers,” on page 122.
The Base Address Registers allow any logical device’s runtime registers to be relocated in LPC I/O space. All chip configuration registers for the device are accessed indirectly through the LPC I/O Configuration Port (see Section 4.8.3,
"Configuration Port," on page 110).

Interrupts
This section defines the Interrupt Sources generated from this block.
Source
Description
LPC_WAKE
This signal is asserted when the LPC interface detects LPC traffic. If
enabled, it may be used to wake the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator when the
chip is in a sleep state.
Note:
LPC_INTERNAL_ERR
4.7
This interrupt is grouped with other Wake-Only events in
GIRQQ16 and GIRQ22.
The LPC_INTERNAL_ERR event is sourced by bit D0 of the Host Bus
Error Register.
Low Power Modes
The LPC Controller may be put into a low power state by the chip’s Power, Clocks, and Reset (PCR) circuitry.
The LPC Controller will deassert its clock required signal when it is commanded to sleep and it is not processing an LPC
transaction, thereby allowing the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator to be turned off. If a subsequent transaction is detected on the
LPC interface, the LPC Controller will assert the LPC_WAKE signal to the JTVIC Controller. If enabled, this event will
wake the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator.
4.8
Description
This LPC Controller is compliant with the Intel® Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface Specification, v1.1. Section 4.8.1, "LPC
Controller Description" further clarifies which LPC Interface features have been implemented and qualifies any system
specific requirements.
The LPC Controller claims only LPC transactions targeted for one of its peripherals. Section 4.8.2, on page 106,
describes the mechanism for Claiming and Forwarding Transactions for Supported LPC Cycles. LPC transactions may
be used to configure the chip and to access registers during operation. The mechanism to configure the chip is
described in Section 4.8.3, "Configuration Port," on page 110.
The LPC memory cycles may also be used to access the Base Address Registers of certain devices as well as internal
SRAM.
Once configured, the LPC peripherals implemented as logical devices on chip may use the SERIRQ to notify the host
of an event. See Section 4.8.4, "Serial IRQs," on page 112.
4.8.1
LPC CONTROLLER DESCRIPTION
The following sections qualify the LPC features implemented according to the LPC Specification.
4.8.1.1

ignored.

When the LPC Controller detects a transaction targetted for this device it will claims and forward that transaction as
defined in Section 4.8.2, "Claiming and Forwarding Transactions for Supported LPC Cycles," on page 106.
LPC I/O Cycles
The system host may use LPC I/O cycles to read/write the I/O mapped configuration and runtime registers implemented
in this device. See the Intel® Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface Specification, v1.1, Section 5.2 for definition of LPC I/O
Cycles.
LPC Memory Cycles
The system host may use LPC memory cycles to access memory mapped registers and internal RAMs implemented in
this device. See the Intel® Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface Specification, v1.1, Section 5.1 for definition of LPC Memory
Cycles.
4.8.1.2
LAD[3:0] Fields
The LAD[3:0] signals support multiple fields for each protocol as defined in section 4.2.1 LAD[3:0] of the Intel® Low Pin
Count (LPC) Interface Specification, v1.1. The following sections further qualify the fields supported.
Wait SYNCs on LPC
LPC transactions that access registers located on the device will require a minimum of two wait SYNCs on the LPC bus.
The number of SYNCs may be larger if the internal bus is in use by the embedded controller, of if the data referenced
by the host is not present in a register. The device always uses Long Wait SYNCs, rather than Short Wait SYNCs, when
responding to an LPC bus request.
Note:
All LPC transactions are synchronized to the LCLK and will complete with a maximum of 8 wait states,
unless otherwise noted.
ERROR SYNCs on LPC
The device does not issue ERROR SYNC cycles.
4.8.1.3
LPC Clock Run and LPC Power Down Behavior
Using LPCPD#
The device tolerates the LPCPD# signal going active and then inactive again without LRESET# going active. This is a
requirement for notebook power management functions.
The Intel® Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface Specification, v1.1, Section 8.2 states that “After LPCPD# is de-asserted, the
LPC interface may be reset dependent upon the characteristics of system reset signal connected to LRESET#.” This
text must be qualified for mobile systems where it is possible that when exiting a "light" sleep state (ACPI S1, APM POS),
LPCPD# may be asserted but the LPC Bus power may not be removed, in which case LRESET# will not occur. When
exiting a "deeper" sleep state (ACPI S3-S5, APM STR, STD, soft-off), LRESET# will occur.
The LPCPD# pin is implemented as a “local” powergood for the LPC bus in the device. It is not to be used as a global
powergood for the chip. It is used to minimize the LPC power dissipation.
Prior to going to a low-power state, the system asserts the LPCPD# signal. LPCPD# goes active at least 30 microseconds prior to the LCLK signal stopping low and power being shut to the other LPC interface signals. Upon recognizing
LPCPD# active, there are no further transactions on the LPC interface.
Using CLKRUN#
CLKRUN# is used to indicate the status of LCLK as well as to request that a stopped clock be started. See FIGURE
4-2: CLKRUN# System Implementation Example on page 105, an example of a typical system implementation using
CLKRUN#.
LCLK Run Support can be enabled and disabled via SIRQ_MODE as shown in Table 4-6, "LPC Controller CLKRUN#
Function". When the SIRQ_MODE is ‘0,’ Serial IRQs are disabled, the CLKRUN# pin is disabled, and the affects of Interrupt requests on CLKRUN# are ignored. When the SIRQ_MODE is ‘1,’ Serial IRQs are enabled, the CLKRUN# pin is
enabled, and the CLKRUN# support related to Interrupts requests as described in the section below is enabled.
The CLKRUN# pin is an open drain output and input. Refer to the PCI Mobile Design Guide Rev 1.0 for a description
of the CLKRUN# function. If CLKRUN# is sampled “high”, LCLK is stopped or stopping. If CLKRUN# is sampled “low”,
LCLK is starting or started (running).
DS00001956D-page 104
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
MEC140X/1X
CLKRUN# Support for Serial IRQ Cycle
If a logical device asserts or de-asserts an interrupt and CLKRUN# is sampled “high”, the LPC Controller can request
the restoration of the clock by asserting the CLKRUN# signal asynchronously (TABLE 4-6:). The LPC Controller holds
CLKRUN# low until it detects two rising edges of the clock. After the second clock edge, the controller must disable the
open drain driver (FIGURE 4-3:).
The LPC Controller must not assert CLKRUN# if it is already driven low by the central resource; i.e., the PCI CLOCK
GENERATOR in FIGURE 4-2:. The controller will not assert CLKRUN# under any conditions if the Serial IRQs are disabled.
The LPC Controller must not assert CLKRUN# unless the line has been de-asserted for two successive clocks; i.e.,
before the clock was stopped (FIGURE 4-3:).
The LPC Controller will not assert CLKRUN# if it is already driven low by the central resource; i.e., the PCI CLOCK
GENERATOR. The LPC Controller also will not assert CLKRUN# unless the signal has been de-asserted for two successive clocks; i.e., before the clock was stopped.

“change” detection logic must run asynchronously to LCLK and regardless of the Serial IRQ mode;
i.e., “continuous” or “quiet”.

Note 1: The signal “ANY CHANGE” is the same as “CHANGE/ASSERTION” in TABLE 4-6:.
2: The LPC Controller must continually monitor the state of CLKRUN# to maintain LCLK until an active “any
IRQ change” condition has been transferred to the host in a Serial IRQ cycle or “any DRQ assertion” condition has been transferred to the host in a DMA cycle. For example, if “any IRQ change or DRQ assertion”
is asserted before CLKRUN# is de-asserted (not shown in FIGURE 4-3:), the controller must assert
CLKRUN# as needed until the Serial IRQ cycle or DMA cycle has completed.
4.8.2
CLAIMING AND FORWARDING TRANSACTIONS FOR SUPPORTED LPC CYCLES
The following sections define how the LPC Controller determines if a cycle is targetted for one of the chip’s logical
devices and how that transaction is then forwarded to that logical device. The following sections include:
• Section 4.8.2.1, "I/O Transactions," on page 106
• Section 4.8.2.2, "Device Memory Transactions," on page 109
4.8.2.1
I/O Transactions
The system host will generate I/O commands to communicate with I/O peripherals, such as Keyboard Controller, UART,
etc. The LPC Controller will claim only I/O transactions targeted to it and it will ignore all others. The following sections
describe how I/O transactions are claimed and forwarded to access the Runtime and Configuration registers.
CLAIMING LPC I/O TRANSACTIONS
Each host I/O accessible block (i.e., logical device) has an associated I/O Base Address register. The format of this register is defined in Section 4.9.3, "I/O Base Address Registers (IO_BARs)," on page 120. If the VALID bit is set in the
logical device’s BAR register the LPC interface will claim all I/O addresses that match the unmasked portion of the programmed LPC Host Address using the following equation.
(LPC Address & ~BAR.MASK) == (BAR.LPC_Address & ~BAR.MASK) && (BAR.Valid == 1)
Masked bits are treated as don’t care in the address matching decoder.
Note:
The LPC Controller’s Base Address register is used to define the Base I/O Address of the Configuration
Port.
FORWARDING I/O TRANSACTIONS
Once an LPC Address is claimed for a specific logical device, the 8 LSbs of the I/O Address are used as the offset from
the hard-coded logical device’s Runtime Registers Base Address located in the EC/Host Address space (i.e., F_0000h
to F_FFFFh). This allows each Host I/O Accessible Block the ability to map up to 256 contiguous bytes into I/O space.
EC/Host Address = Logical Device Runtime Register Base Address[31:0] + (LPC I/O Address[6:0] & BAR.MASK)
Note:
The Runtime Registers are always located on even 1k byte boundaries in the internal EC/Host Address
space.

field is mapped to bits [15:10] of the EC/Host Address space. In this example bits[15:10] = 00_1100 = Ch.
The system host will use I/O transactions to access the Configuration and Runtime registers. To access the Runtime
registers, the host must configure the I/O Base Address Registers (IO_BARs), which are accessible via the Configuration Port first. The Configuration Port, Logical Device Ch, is located at the Base I/O Address programmed in the BAR
Configuration register located at offset 60h.
For illustration purposes only, lets examine two types of logical devices (these may or may not reside in this design).
EXAMPLE 4-2:
KEYBOARD CONTROLLER
The Keyboard Controller (8042 Interface) Base Address Register has 60h in the LPC Address field, the Frame field is
01h, and the MASK field is 04h. Because of the single ‘1b’ bit in MASK, the BAR will match LPC I/O patterns in the form
‘0000_0000_0110_0x00b’, so both 60h and 64h will be matched and claimed by the LPC Controller.
EXAMPLE 4-3:
16550 UART
If a standard 16550 UART was located at LPC I/O address 238h, then the UART Receive buffer would appear at
address 238h and the Line Status register at 23Dh. If the BAR for the UART was set to 0238_8047h, then the UART
will be matched at I/O address 238h.
The following table illustrates the I/O Address Mapping for each logical device implemented in the MEC140X/1X.

Device Memory Transactions
LPC Memory cycles are single byte read or writes that occur in a 32-bit address range. The LPC block will claim a memory transaction that is targeted for one of these logical devices. A Device Memory Base Address Register has been
implemented for the logical devices listed in Table 4-15, “Device Memory Base Address Registers,” on page 124
On every LPC bus Memory access all Base Address Registers are checked in parallel and if any matches the LPC memory address the LPC Interface claims the bus cycle. The memory address is claimed as described in I/O Transactions
on page 106 except that the LPC memory cycle address is 32 bits instead of the 16 bit I/O cycle address.
Software should insure that no two BARs map the same LPC memory address. If two BARs do map to the same
address, the BAR_CONFLICT bit in the Host Bus Error Register is set when an LPC access targeting the BAR Conflict
address. An EC interrupt can be generated.
Each Device Memory BAR is 48 bits wide. The format of each Device Memory BAR is summarized in Device Memory
Base Address Register Format. An LPC memory request is translated by the Device Memory BAR into an 8-bit read or
write transaction on the AHB bus. The 32-bit LPC memory address is translated into a 32-bit AHB address.
The Base Address Register Table is itself part of the AHB address space. It resides in the Configuration quadrant of
Logical Device Ch, the LPC Interface.
4.8.2.3
SRAM Memory Transactions
In addition to mapping LPC Memory transactions into Logical Devices, Memory transactions can be mapped into internal address space, as configured by the SRAM Memory BARs. LPC Memory cycles are single byte read or writes that
occur in a 32-bit address range. The LPC block will claim LPC memory cycles that match the programmed SRAM Memory BAR Register if the VALID in the SRAM Memory BAR Configuration is set to 1. No memory cycles will be claimed
if this bit is cleared.
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 109
MEC140X/1X
The LPC interface can claim up to a 4 kB block of memory addresses and map them to the internal address space. The
location of the block of memory in the 32-bit internal space, as well as access to it, is controlled by the EC, using the
SRAM Memory Host Configuration Register.
The block of memory in the internal 32-bit address space must start on any size-byte address boundary. For example,
if the memory is 4k bytes than it is only relocatable on 4k byte boundaries.
CLAIMING LPC MEMORY TRANSACTIONS
A Base Address Register will match an LPC Memory address, and thus the device will claim the LPC bus cycle, if the
following relation holds:
bit (LPC Address & ~(BAR.2SIZE-1) == (BAR.Host_Address & ~(BAR.2SIZE-1)) && (BAR.Valid == 1)
If the BAR matches, the LPC cycle will be claimed by the device. The LPC request will be translated to an AHB address
according to the following formula:
AHB Address = (BAR.AHB_Base & ~(BAR.2SIZE-1)) | (LPC_Address & (BAR.2SIZE-1))
The mapping is also illustrated in FIGURE 4-4:

FORWARDING SRAM MEMORY TRANSACTIONS
The LPC interface can claim up to a 4 kB block of memory addresses and map them to the internal address space.
The firmware programs the base address of the internal memory space in SRAM Memory Host Configuration Register,
which is mapped to the LPC memory address programmed by the host in the SRAM Memory BAR register. The firmware
also programs the size of the memory to be accessed. The LPC block uses the size field to determine which memory
addresses to claim (see Section , "Claiming LPC Memory Transactions," on page 110), as well as to prevent reading/writing an unmapped internal memory location.
4.8.3
CONFIGURATION PORT
The LPC Host can access the Chip’s Configuration Registers through the Configuration Port when CONFIG MODE is
enabled. The device defaults to CONFIG MODE being disabled.
Note:
The data read from the Configuration Port Data register is undefined when CONFIG MODE is not enabled.
DS00001956D-page 110
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
MEC140X/1X
The Configuration Port is composed of an INDEX and DATA Register. The INDEX register is used as an address pointer
to an 8-bit configuration register and the DATA register is used to read or write the data value from the indexed configuration register. Once CONFIG MODE is enabled, reading the Configuration Port Data register will return the data value
that is in the indexed Configuration Register.
If no value was written to the INDEX register, reading the Data Register in the Configuration Port will return the value in
Configuration Address location 00h (default).

the general case for determining the I/O address for each register.
Enable CONFIG MODE
The INDEX and DATA registers are effective only when the chip is in CONFIG MODE. CONFIG MODE is enabled when
the Config Entry Key is successfully written to the I/O address of the INDEX register of the CONFIG PORT while the
CONFIG MODE is disabled (see Section 4.8.3.2, "Disable CONFIG MODE").
Config Entry Key = < 55h>
4.8.3.2
Disable CONFIG MODE
CONFIG MODE defaults to disabled on a nSYSRST, nSIO_RESET, and when LRESET# is asserted. CONFIG MODE
is also disabled when the following Config Exit Key is successfully written to the I/O address of the INDEX PORT of the

Stop pulse is two clocks wide for Quiet mode, three clocks wide for Continuous mode.
There may be none, one, or more Idle states during the Stop Frame.
The next SERIRQ cycle’s Start Frame pulse may or may not start immediately after the turn-around clock of the Stop
Frame.
4.8.4.3
SERIRQ Cycle Control
SERIRQ START FRAME
There are two modes of operation for the SERIRQ Start Frame.
Quiet (Active) Mode
Any device may initiate a Start Frame by driving the SERIRQ low for one clock, while the SERIRQ is Idle. After driving
low for one clock, the SERIRQ must immediately be tri-stated without at any time driving high. A Start Frame may not
be initiated while the SERIRQ is active. The SERIRQ is Idle between Stop and Start Frames. The SERIRQ is active
between Start and Stop Frames. This mode of operation allows the SERIRQ to be Idle when there are no IRQ/Data
transitions which should be most of the time.
Once a Start Frame has been initiated, the host controller will take over driving the SERIRQ low in the next clock and
will continue driving the SERIRQ low for a programmable period of three to seven clocks. This makes a total low pulse
width of four to eight clocks. Finally, the host controller will drive the SERIRQ back high for one clock then tri-state.
Any SERIRQ Device which detects any transition on an IRQ/Data line for which it is responsible must initiate a Start
Frame in order to update the host controller unless the SERIRQ is already in an SERIRQ Cycle and the IRQ/Data transition can be delivered in that SERIRQ Cycle.
Continuous (Idle) Mode
Only the Host controller can initiate a Start Frame to update IRQ/Data line information. All other SERIRQ agents become
passive and may not initiate a Start Frame. SERIRQ will be driven low for four to eight clocks by host controller. This
mode has two functions. It can be used to stop or idle the SERIRQ or the host controller can operate SERIRQ in a continuous mode by initiating a Start Frame at the end of every Stop Frame.
An SERIRQ mode transition can only occur during the Stop Frame. Upon reset, SERIRQ bus is defaulted to continuous
mode, therefore only the host controller can initiate the first Start Frame. Slaves must continuously sample the Stop
Frames pulse width to determine the next SERIRQ Cycle’s mode.
SERIRQ DATA FRAME
Once a Start Frame has been initiated, the LPC Controller will watch for the rising edge of the Start Pulse and start counting IRQ/Data Frames from there. Each IRQ/Data Frame is three clocks: Sample phase, Recovery phase, and Turnaround phase. During the sample phase, the LPC Controller must drive the SERIRQ (SIRQ pin) low, if and only if, its
last detected IRQ/Data value was low. If its detected IRQ/Data value is high, SERIRQ must be left tri-stated. During the
recovery phase, the LPC Controller must drive the SERIRQ high, if and only if, it had driven the SERIRQ low during the
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 113
MEC140X/1X
previous sample phase. During the turn-around phase, the controller must tri-state the SERIRQ. The device drives the
SERIRQ line low at the appropriate sample point if its associated IRQ/Data line is low, regardless of which device initiated the start frame.
The Sample phase for each IRQ/Data follows the low to high transition of the Start Frame pulse by a number of clocks
equal to the IRQ/Data Frame times three, minus one e.g. The IRQ5 Sample clock is the sixth IRQ/Data Frame, then the
sample phase is {(6 x 3) - 1 = 17} the seventeenth clock after the rising edge of the Start Pulse.

The SIRQ data frame will now support IRQ2 from a logical device; previously SERIRQ Period 3 was reserved for use
by the System Management Interrupt (LSMI#). When using Period 3 for IRQ2, the user should mask off the SMI via the
ESMI Mask Register. Likewise, when using Period 3 for LSMI#, the user should not configure any logical devices as
using IRQ2.
SERIRQ Period 14 is used to transfer IRQ13. Each Logical devices will have IRQ13 as a choice for their primary interrupt.
STOP CYCLE CONTROL
Once all IRQ/Data Frames have completed, the host controller will terminate SERIRQ activity by initiating a Stop Frame.
Only the host controller can initiate the Stop Frame. A Stop Frame is indicated when the SERIRQ is low for two or three
clocks. If the Stop Frame’s low time is two clocks, then the next SERIRQ cycle’s sampled mode is the Quiet mode; and
any SERIRQ device may initiate a Start Frame in the second clock or more after the rising edge of the Stop Frame’s
pulse. If the Stop Frame’s low time is three clocks, then the next SERIRQ cycle’s sampled mode is the continuous mode,
and only the host controller may initiate a Start Frame in the second clock or more after the rising edge of the Stop
Frame’s pulse.

4.8.4.4
Latency
Latency for IRQ/Data updates over the SERIRQ bus in bridge-less systems with the minimum IRQ/Data Frames of 17
will range up to 96 clocks (3.84S with a 25 MHz LCLK or 2.88s with a 33 MHz LCLK).
Note:
4.8.4.5
If one or more PCI to PCI Bridge is added to a system, the latency for IRQ/Data updates from the secondary
or tertiary buses will be a few clocks longer for synchronous buses, and approximately double for asynchronous buses.
EOI/ISR Read Latency
Any serialized IRQ scheme has a potential implementation issue related to IRQ latency. IRQ latency could cause an
EOI or ISR Read to precede an IRQ transition that it should have followed. This could cause a system fault. The host
interrupt controller is responsible for ensuring that these latency issues are mitigated. The recommended solution is to
delay EOIs and ISR Reads to the interrupt controller by the same amount as the SERIRQ Cycle latency in order to
ensure that these events do not occur out of order.
4.8.4.6
AC/DC Specification Issue
All Serial IRQ agents must drive/sample SERIRQ synchronously related to the rising edge of LCLK. The SERIRQ pin
uses the electrical specification of the PCI bus. Electrical parameters will follow the PCI Local Bus Specification, Rev.
2.2 definition of “sustained tri-state.”
4.8.4.7
Reset and Initialization
The SERIRQ bus uses LRESET# as its reset signal and follows the PCI bus reset mechanism. The SERIRQ pin is tristated by all agents while LRESET# is active. With reset, SERIRQ slaves and bridges are put into the (continuous) Idle
mode. The host controller is responsible for starting the initial SERIRQ cycle to collect system’s IRQ/Data default values.
The system then follows with the Continuous/Quiet mode protocol (Stop Frame pulse width) for subsequent SERIRQ
cycles. It is the host controller’s responsibility to provide the default values to the 8259’s and other system logic before
the first SERIRQ cycle is performed. For SERIRQ system suspend, insertion, or removal application, the host controller
should be programmed into Continuous (IDLE) mode first. This is to ensure the SERIRQ bus is in Idle state before the
system configuration changes.
4.8.4.8
SERIRQ Interrupts
The LPC Controller routes Logical Device interrupts onto SIRQ stream frames IRQ[0:15]. Routing is controlled by the
SIRQ Interrupt Configuration Registers. There is one SIRQ Interrupt Configuration Register for each accessible SIRQ
Frame (IRQ); all 16 registers are listed in Table 4-13, "SIRQ Interrupt Configuration Register Map".
The format for each SIRQ Interrupt Configuration Register is described in Section 4.9.2.1, "SIRQ Configuration Register
Format," on page 119. Each Logical Device can have up to two LPC SERIRQ interrupts. When the device is polled by
the host, each SIRQ frame routes the level of the Logical Device interrupt (selected by the corresponding SIRQ Interrupt
Configuration Register) to the SIRQ stream.
4.8.4.9
SERIRQ Routing
Each SIRQ Interrupt Configuration Register controls a series of multiplexers which route to a single Logical Device interrupt as illustrated in FIGURE 4-7: SIRQ Routing Internal Logical Devices on page 117. The following table defines the
Serial IRQ routing for each logical device implemented in the chip.

I/O BASE ADDRESS REGISTERS (IO_BARS)
The LPC Controller has implemented an I/O Base Address Register (BAR) for each Logical Device in the LPC Configuration space.
• For a description of the I/O Base Address Register format see Section 4.9.3.1, "I/O Base Address Register Format," on page 120.
• For a description of the I/O BARs per Logical Device see Table 4-14, “I/O Base Address Registers,” on page 122.
On every LPC bus I/O access the unmasked portion of the programmed LPC Host Address in each of the Base Address
Registers are checked in parallel and if any matches the LPC I/O address the LPC Controller claims the bus cycle.
Note:
Software should that insure that no two I/O BARs map the same LPC I/O address. If two I/O BARs do map
to the same address, the LPC_INTERNAL_ERR and BAR_CONFLICT status bits are set when an LPC
access is targeting the address with the BAR conflict.
The format of each BAR is summarized in Section 4.9.3.1, "I/O Base Address Register Format," on page 120.
4.9.3.1
I/O Base Address Register Format
Each LPC accessible logical device has a programmable I/O Base Address Register. The following table defines the

This field controls when the host interface will permit the internal ring

0h: The host interface will permit the internal clocks to be shut
down if the LPCPD# signal is asserted (sampled low)
1h: The host interface will permit the internal clocks to be shut down
if the CLKRUN# signals “CLOCK STOP” and there are no pending
serial interrupt request or DMA requests from devices associated
with the device. The CLKRUN# signals “CLOCK STOP” by
CLKRUN# being high for 5 LPCCLK’s after the raising edge of
CLKRUN#
2h: The host interface will permit the ring oscillator to be shut down
after the completion of every LPC transaction. This mode may cause
an increase in the time to respond to LPC transactions if the ring
oscillator is off when the LPC transaction is detected.
3h: The ring oscillator is not permitted to shut down as long as the
host interface is active
The bit in the LPC Activate Register should not be written ‘0’ to by
the Host over LPC. When the bit in the LPC Activate Register is 0,
the Host Interface will permit the ring oscillator to be shut down and
the Clock_Control Field is ignored. The Clock_Control Field only
effects the Host Interface when The bit in the LPC Activate Register
should not be written ‘0’ to by the Host over LPC. bit in the LPC Activate Register is 1.
Although the Host Interface can permit the internal oscillator to shut
down, it cannot turn the oscillator on in response to an LPC transaction that occurs while the oscillator is off. In order to restart the oscillator in order to complete an LPC transaction, EC firmware must
enable the LPC_WAKE interrupt. See the Application Note in Section 10.11.3.1, "GIRQ16 and GIRQ22 Wake-Only Events" for details.

ENHANCED SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE (ESPI)
5.1
Introduction
The Intel® Enhanced Serial Peripheral Interface (eSPI) is used by the system host to configure the chip and communicate with the logical devices implemented in the design through a series of read/write registers. It is Intel’s successor to
the Low Pin Count (LPC) bus, used in previous devices to provide System Host access to devices internal to the Embedded Controller.

QUAD SPI MASTER CONTROLLER
6.1
Overview
The Quad SPI Master Controller may be used to communicate with various peripheral devices that use a Serial Peripheral Interface, such as EEPROMS, DACs and ADCs. The controller can be configured to support advanced SPI Flash
devices with multi-phase access protocols. Data can be transfered in Half Duplex, Single Data Rate, Dual Data Rate
and Quad Data Rate modes. In all modes and all SPI clock speeds, the controller supports back-to-back reads and
writes without clock stretching if internal bandwidth permits.

Description
Interrupt generated by the Quad SPI Master Controller. Events that may
cause the interrupt to be asserted are stored in the QMSPI Status
Register.
Low Power Modes
The Quad SPI Master Controller is always in its lowest power state unless a transaction is in process. A transaction is
in process between the time the START bit is written with a ‘1’ and the TRANSFER_DONE bit is set by hardware to ‘1’.
If the QMSPI SLEEP_ENABLE input is asserted, writes to the START bit are ignored and the Quad SPI Master Controller will remain in its lowest power state.

SPI CONFIGURATIONS MODES
• Half Duplex. All SPI data transfers take place on a single wire, SPI_IO0
• Full Duplex. This is the legacy SPI configuration, where all SPI data is transfered one bit at a time and data from
the SPI Master to the SPI Slave takes place on SPI_MOSI (SPI_IO0) and at the same time data from the SPI
Slave to the SPI Master takes place on SPI_MISO (SPI_IO1)
• Dual Data Rate. Data transfers between the SPI Master and the SPI Slave take place two bits at a time, using
SPI_IO0 and SPI_IO1
• Quad Data Rate. Data transfers between the SPI Master and the SPI Slave take place four bits at a time, using all
four SPI data wires, SPI_IO0, SPI_IO1, SPI_IO2 and SPI_IO3
6.10.2
SPI CONTROLLER MODES
• Manual. In this mode, firmware control all SPI data transfers byte at a time
• DMA. Firmware configures the SPI Master controller for characteristics like data width but the transfer of data
between the FIFO buffers in the SPI controller and memory is controlled by the DMA controller. DMA transfers can
take place from the Slave to the Master, from the Master to the Slave, or in both directions simultaneously
• Descriptor. Descriptor Mode extends the SPI Controller so that firmware can configure a multi-phase SPI transfer,
in which each phase may have a different SPI bus width, a different direction, and a different length. For example,
firmware can configure the controller so that a read from an advanced SPI Flash, which consists of a command

MEC140X/1X
phase, an address phase, a dummy cycle phase and the read phase, can take place as a single operation, with a
single interrupt to firmware when the entire transfer is completed
6.10.3
SPI CLOCK
The SPI output clock is derived from the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator, divided by a value programmed in the CLOCK_DIVIDE
field of the QMSPI Mode Register. Sample frequencies are shown in the following table:

ERROR CONDITIONS
The Quad SPI Master Controller can detect some illegal configurations. When these errors are detected, an error is
signaled via the PROGRAMMING_ERROR status bit. This bit is asserted when any of the following errors are detected:
• Both Receive and the Transmit transfers are enabled when the SPI Master Controller is configured for Dual Data
Rate or Quad Data Rate
• Both Pull-up and Pull-down resistors are enabled on either the Receive data pins or the Transmit data pins
• The transfer length is programmed in bit mode, but the total number of bits is not a multiple of 2 (when the controller is configured for Dual Data Rate) or 4 (when the controller is configured for Quad Data Rate)
• Both the STOP bit and the START bits in the QMSPI Execute Register are set to ‘1’ simultaneously

7.7
Description
The Chip Configuration Registers are divided into two groups: Global Configuration Registers and Logical Device Configuration registers. The following descriptions assume that the LPC interface has already been configured to operate
in CONFIG MODE.
• Global Configuration Registers are always accessible via the LPC Configuration Port.
• The Logical Device Configuration registers are only accessible via the LPC Configuration Port when the corresponding Logical Device Number is loaded in the Logical Device Number register. The Logical Device Number
register is a Global Configuration Register.
There are 48 8-bit Global Configuration Registers (at offsets 00h through 2Fh), plus up to 208 8-bit registers associated
with each Logical Device. The Logical Device is selected with the Logical Device Number Register (Global Configuration
Register 07h).
Sequence to Access Logical Device Configuration Register:
a)
b)
Write the number of the Logical Device being accessed in the Logical Device Number Configuration Register by
writing 07h into the INDEX PORT and the Logical Device Number into the DATA PORT.
Write the address of the desired logical device configuration register to the INDEX PORT and then write or read
the value of the configuration register through the DATA PORT.

Note 1: If accessing the Global Configuration Registers, step (a) is not required.
2: Any write to an undefined or reserved Configuration register is terminated normally on the LPC bus without
any modification of state in the MEC140X/1X. Any read to an undefined or reserved Configuration register
returns FFh.
The following sections define the Global Configuration registers and the Logical Configuration registers.
7.7.1
GLOBAL CONTROL/CONFIGURATION REGISTERS
As with all Configuration Registers, the INDEX PORT is used to select a Global Configuration Register in the chip. The
DATA PORT is then used to access the selected register. The INDEX and DATA PORTs are defined in the LPC Interface

LOGICAL DEVICE CONFIGURATION REGISTERS
The Logical Device Configuration registers support motherboard designs in which the resources required by their components are known and assigned by the BIOS at POST.
Each logical device may have a set of directly I/O addressable Runtime Registers, Configuration Registers accessible
via the Configuration Port, or DMA registers. The following table lists the register types for each LPC Host-accessible
Logical Device implemented in the design. The Embedded Controller (EC) can access all Configuration Registers and

Interfaces
The Embedded Controller (EC) has five interfaces: ISRAM Interface, DSRAM Interface, Debug (EJTAG) Interface, AHB
System Interface, and an Interrupt Interface.
The EC executes instruction out of instruction memory (e.g., ROM) or data memory (e.g., RAM) via the ISRAM Interface;
memory accesses are handled via the DSRAM Interface; and EC accesses the peripherals residing in the internal
address space via the AHB interface. The host can probe the EC and all EC addressable memory via the eJTAG debug
interface.

8.4.2
AHB INTERFACE
A Processor-to-Memory Translator has been appended to the ISRAM and DSRAM interfaces. This translator will pass
traffic to either the ISRAM, DSRAM, or AHB interface based on the address of the access. The AHB Interface is the
embedded controller’s interface to the EC Address Space (i.e., 32-bit internal address space) that is not used as EC
Code or Data space (e.g., Peripheral Registers).
The MIPS32 M14K core can have at most one access pending on the AHB at one time. It can perform 8-bit, 16-bit and
32-bit loads and stores on the AHB.
Possible AHB bus errors are described in Section 8.4.2.1, "AHB & Code/Data Bus Errors," on page 159. The processor
responds to a bus error with Memory Error exception, except where noted.
8.4.2.1
AHB & Code/Data Bus Errors
AHB bus requests can be terminated with an AHB bus error. The handling of bus errors by the EC is described in Chapter 4, Exceptions and Interrupts in the M14K Core, of the MIPS32® M14K™ Processor Core Software User’s Manual,
Document Number: MD00668, Revision 02.03, April 30, 2012.
Bus errors may be caused by:
• Code accesses to a memory location outside of the Code/ROM memory range will generate a processor exception
• Data accesses to out-of-bounds memory location in data region (0xBFD18000 - 0xBFFF_FFFF) returns garbage
(no processor exception).
• EC I/O requests to undefined EC Address memory locations via the System AHB Interface.will generate a processor exception

DESCRIPTION
The embedded controller is reset by EC_PROC_RESET#.
Interrupts
The embedded controller does not generate any interrupts.
Note:
8.7
The embedded controller is equipped with an Interrupt Interface to respond to interrupts. See Section 8.4.6,
"Interrupt Interface," on page 160.
Exceptions
Exceptions are synchronous to instructions, are not maskable, and have higher priority than interrupts.
Name
Description
Reset_Exception
The Reset_Exception is asserted when either an SI_RESET (i.e., Soft
Reset) or a SI_ColdReset (i.e., POR) is asserted. Events that can cause
a SI_RESET are a Soft Reset initiated by firmware or a WDT Event.
Debug_Exception
The Debug_Exception is asserted for an EJTAG command.
NMI
None - There are no NMI’s implemented in this device.
8.8
Low Power Modes
The embedded controller may put itself and the chip into lower power states by configuring the chip’s Sleep logic implemented in the chip’s Power, Clocks, and Reset (PCR) circuitry and then executing the WAIT instruction.
The core provides two mechanisms for system-level, low-power support: Register-controlled power management and
Instruction-controlled power management
8.8.1
REGISTER-CONTROLLED POWER MANAGEMENT
Register-Controlled Power Management is not supported.
8.8.2
INSTRUCTION-CONTROLLED POWER MANAGEMENT
In instruction-controlled power-down mode execution of the WAIT instruction is used to invoke low-power mode and put
the chip into sleep mode. It stays in sleep mode until an interrupt or restart occurs. Power consumption is reduced during
sleep mode since the pipeline ceases to change state, and the RAMs are disabled. More power reduction is achieved
when clock gating option is used, whereby all non-essential clocks are switched off. The chip’s Power, Clocks, and
Reset (PCR) circuitry may be enabled to gate the clocks externally to the core when the embedded controller enters the
sleep state.

MEMORY ORGANIZATION
The MEC140X/1X implements two address spaces: Virtual and Physical. All hardware resources such as program
memory, data memory and peripherals are located at their respective physical addresses. Virtual addresses are exclusively used by the CPU to fetch and execute instructions as well as access peripherals. Physical addresses are used
by peripherals such as the Internal DMA Controller that access memory independently of CPU.
The following table lists all the defined memory regions in the 4 GB EC Address Space. Accessing undefined memory
regions may cause unwanted results, such as a memory exception.

CC-MMCR = closely-coupled memory-mapped control registers, i.e. interrupt registers (JTVIC).
MMCR = memory-mapped control registers, i.e. all the peripheral registers.
The IRQ EBASE must be programmed at BFD0_0000h in order to be on a 256k byte boundary. All IRQ
routine entry points must be located above this address.
32kB is the default Data RAM size; however, other sizes of Data RAM can be used (for example 8kB or
16kB) with the remainder used as Code RAM. See the MEC14xx Programmers Reference Guide for configuring the different settings.
The size of the code RAM is part dependent.
The embedded controller executes code out of the EC Instruction Memory via the closely-coupled ISRAM Interface. The
Code RAM, Boot ROM and Debug RAM are all accessible as EC Instruction Memory. Data references can come from
either the EC Data Memory via the closely-coupled DSRAM Interface (i.e., Data RAM access) or from any address
located in the EC Address Space via the System Interface.
The Code and Data SRAM is optimized to the memory allocation shown in the table. This allows code and data
accesses to happen simultaneously. However, software may use Code RAM for data and Data RAM for code. The only
penalty will be access time. When the ISRAM and DSRAM interfaces both attempt to access the same memory region
the accesses become serialized.
Example:
The 128KBytes SRAM (Code or Data) memory is allocated as follows:
• 96 kB Optimized for Code
• 32 kB Optimized for Data.
A user may choose to organize their code and data space as follows:
STACK
8 kB
DATA
20 kB
CODE
100 kB
Notice that although the Code Space is optimized for 96 kB the user can choose to allocate part of the data memory for
code. The only difference will be the access time for the code implemented in the data space since code and data
accesses will become serialized in that range.

JUMP TABLE VECTORED INTERRUPT CONTROLLER (JTVIC)
10.1
Overview
The Jump Table Vectored Interrupt Controller (JTVIC) works in conjunction with the MIPS32 M14KTM Processor Interrupt Interface. The interrupt events are synchronous events that may be serviced in either Aggregated Mode or Disaggregated mode. The JTVIC block presents the Vector for the highest priority interrupt pending. The priority-level is
firmware selectable.
A subset of the interrupts are classified as wake events that can be recognized without a running clock, e.g., while the
MEC140X/1X is in sleep state. These asynchronous events are routed to the chip’s clock generation logic and are used
to resume the clock’s operation from a sleep state and wake the processor.

Interrupt Sources
All the chip’s interrupt sources are routed to the Jump Table Vectored Interrupt Controller (JTVIC) GIRQx Source Registers. The list of interrupt sources is defined in Table 10-2, “Interrupt Source, Enable Set, Enable Clear, and Result Bit
Assignments,” on page 169.
10.7
EIC Interrupt Interface
The Jump Table Vectored Interrupt Controller (JTVIC) is designed to generate interrupts to the Embedded Controller’s
External Interrupt Controller (EIC) interface. This IP block aggregates all the chip’s interrupt Sources (defined in
Table 10-2, “Interrupt Source, Enable Set, Enable Clear, and Result Bit Assignments,” on page 169), determines the
highest priority interrupt that is active, and generates the Offset Vector used to jump to the respective IRQ Handler.

10.10 Low Power Modes
The JTVIC always operates in the lowest power state; gating its own clock when it is not required. The only time this
block requires the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator is for register reads/writes and for propagating interrupt events to the embedded controller.
If the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator is off, the wake-capable interrupts may be used to resume operation thereby allowing the
interrupt events to propagate to the embedded controller.

FEATURES
• Supports up to 1024 Interrupt Sources
• Aggregated and Disaggregated Modes of Operation
- Aggregated Mode offers a programmable Vector Offset per GIRQ
- Disaggregated Mode offers a programmable Vector Offset per Source Bit
• 4 levels of configurable priority
10.11.2
OVERVIEW
This module is a highly-configurable and expandable vectored interrupt controller which is designed to work with an
MIPS M14k processor’s EIC (External Interrupt Controller) mode of interrupt operation, with direct vector addressing
(i.e. direct address driven into the processor instead of an “interrupt vector number”). The controller supports four levels
of priority on a per-interrupt-source basis.
The controller operates in two different modes, aggregated and dis-aggregated (or mini-jump-table), on a grouped-IRQ
(GIRQ) basis. NOTE: a GIRQ is a grouping of up to 32 interrupt sources.
Thus this controller can be configured as fully aggregated all the way to fully dis-aggregated, and everything in between.
In aggregated mode the controller stores ISR vector addresses in local registers, thus saving firmware from having to
build ISR jump tables in local SRAM. One vector address per GIRQ.
In dis-aggregated/jump-table mode, the controller can selectively break apart individual GIRQ interrupt sources into
separate vector addresses.

WAKE-CAPABLE INTERRUPT EVENTS
Wake-capable interrupts are listed in Section 10.11.4, "List of Interrupt Events," on page 169 with a designation of ‘Yes’
in the Wake Event column
All interrupts, except GIRQ22, generate an EC Interrupt event. They are routed to source bits that are synchronized to
the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator. If enabled, the Interrupt Result is fed into the Priority Encoder/Decision Logic, which generates the interrupt vector to the EIC Interrupt Interface.
Some Interrupts, which are labeled Wake-Capable, are also routed as Wake Events to the Chip’s Wake Logic. These
are asynchronous events that are used to resume the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator operation from a sleep state and wake
the processor.

TABLE 10-1:
WAKE-ONLY EVENTS
Wake Event
Description
LPC_WAKE
This bit is set when the LPC interface detects activity on the interface. It’s sole
purpose is to restart the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator.
SMB_WAKE
This bit is set when an i2c/SMBus interface detects a START event on the interface. It’s sole purpose is to restart the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator.
PS2_DATx_WAKE
This bit is set when the PS/2 interface detects activity on it’s interface. It’s sole
purpose is to restart the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator.
KSC_INT_WAKE
This bit is set when the Keyboard Matrix Scan Controller detects activity on it’s
interface. It’s sole purpose is to restart the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator.
DEBUG_DONE
This bit is set when the ICSP debugger interface detects activity on the interface.
It’s sole purpose is to notify the EC firmware that the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator was
taken out of sleep state by the debug interface.
ESPI_WAKE
This bit is set when the eSPI interface detects activity on the interface. It’s sole
purpose is to restart the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator.
GIRQ16 will generate both a wake event and an interrupt vector to the EIC Interrupt Interface. This will require the
embedded firmware to clear the interrupt status event and re-execute the sleep instruction. GIRQ16 is a legacy interrupt
used to ensure the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator remained on for the minimum time. This interrupt may be deprecated in future
designs
GIRQ22 does not generate an interrupt vector to the EIC Interrupt Interface. GIRQ22 only generates a wake event to
restart the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator running. Hardware automatically wakes the oscillator to process the wake event,
clears the event, and resumes sleeping without firmware intervention.
Note:
The sleeping state of the chip is determined by bits[2:0] of the System Sleep Control Register (SYS_SLP_CNTRL) on page 86
APPLICATION NOTE: Configuring Wake-Only Events
Wake-Only interrupt event should be enabled just before executing the EC sleep instruction. Firmware should execute
the following sequence of events:
1.
2.
3.
Set bits[2:0] in the System Sleep Control Register (SYS_SLP_CNTRL)
Enable Wake Events in either GIRQ16 or GIRQ22
Execute Sleep Instruction (_wait;)
For example, in order to enable LPC transactions to MEC140X/1X Logical Devices while the MEC140X/1X is in a Sleep
mode in which the main oscillator is shut off, just before entering sleep EC firmware must enable one of the LPC_WAKE
interrupts. The firmware designer may choose either the LPC_WAKE located in GIRQ16 or in GIRQ22. When responding to the GIRQ16 interrupt EC firmware should disable the LPC_WAKE interrupt until firmware determines that it is
again appropriate to enter a Deep Sleep mode. GIRQ22 handles this automatically in hardware.

PRIORITY ENCODER AND DECODER
Every GIRQ Result bit has an associated Interrupt Priority Level (IPL) that is configurable by firmware (see Interrupt
Priority Control Registers on page 191). The Priority Encoder and Decoder logic always presents the interrupt event that
results in the highest Requested Interrupt Priority Level (RIPL) for a given mode of operation. The processor compares
the RIPL to the current IPL being serviced to determine if it should preempt the current IRQ handler or allow the current
IRQ handler to complete execution.
There are two modes of operation that effect how the hardware determines the RIPL: Aggregated Mode and Disaggregated mode. Firmware can select the mode of operation per GIRQ by programming the JTEnable (Jump-Table Enable)
bit located in the Aggregator Control Registers. This allows the firmware to implement a fully aggregated solution, a fully
disaggregated solution, or a hybrid solution.
10.11.5.1
Fully Aggregated Mode
DETERMINING PRIORITY IN AGGREGATED MODE
In the fully aggregated mode, each GIRQ group is assigned the priority-level that is programmed for Result Bit 0 of that
group. Priority Control bits for GIRQ Result Bits [31:1] have no function in this mode.
The Priority Encoder and Decision Logic generates the Vector for the active GIRQ interrupt with the highest priority. A
GIRQ interrupt will be active if one or more of the bits within the GIRQ Result register are asserted. If two or more GIRQ
events are active with the same priority-level the lowest numbered GIRQ wins.
The following diagram illustrates this selection process.

GIRQ[n:8] Aggregated Vector Address
STEPS TO SET UP A PARTICULAR GIRQ GROUPING OF INTERRUPTS TO VECTOR TO AN ISR IN
AGGREGATED MODE.
1.
2.
3.
4.
Determine location in code space of the ISR to handle GIRQ “n”. Program this 17-bit offset into the GIRQ aggregator control/vector address register. Of course, have the processor’s EBASE register programmed to the correct
location as well.
(optional) Clear all source bits for the interrupts within GIRQ “n”.
Enable the individual interrupts within GIRQ “n” that you wish the ISR to handle.
Enable global interrupts in the processor.
ILLUSTRATIVE SCENARIO.
GIRQ #8 has 31 GPIOs from pins configured to generate interrupts that will be handled by an ISR labeled
“GIRQ08_handler”. The 31 GPIOs are named (from GIRQ #8’s bit 0 through bit 30): GPIO001, GPIO002,….,GPIO030.
EBASE is at 0xbfd0_0000. The linker placed the handler at 0xbfd0_0500.
The firmware programs GIRQ #8’s aggregator control to 0x0000_0500, sets each interrupt source priority to, say, 0x0
(2 bits of priority), which corresponds to priority level 1 to the processor. Then enables all interrupt lines by writing
0xffff_ffff to GIRQ #8’s interrupt “enable set” register address.
If GPIO029 later fires an interrupt to the controller, the controller will send an EIC vector of 0x500 with a requested interrupt priority level 1 to the processor. The same goes for any of the other GPIOs firing an interrupt via GIRQ #8.

Fully Disaggregated Mode
DETERMINING PRIORITY IN DISAGGREGATED MODE
In the fully disaggregated mode, each GIRQx[n] Result Bit is assigned the priority-level that is programmed in the corresponding GIRQx[n] Priority bit. The Priority Encoder and Decision Logic generates the Vector for the active Result bit
with the highest priority. If two or more Result bits are active with the same priority-level the lowest Result Bit wins.

STEPS TO SET UP A PARTICULAR GIRQ GROUPING OF INTERRUPTS TO VECTOR TO AN ISR IN
DISAGGREGATED/JT MODE.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Determine a location in code space to contain a mini-jump table, of size 31 entries or less, depending on how
populated a particular GIRQ is (i.e. 15 populated sources = 15 jump table entries in SRAM).
Build up to 31 ISRs, one for each interrupt source in this GIRQ. The jump table gets populated with jump instructions the locations of these ISRs.
Program the 17-bit offset for the entry location of the mini-jump table into the GIRQ aggregator control/vector
address register. EBASE must be programmed at 0xbfd0_0000.
(optional) Clear all source bits for the interrupts within GIRQ “n”.
Enable the individual interrupts within GIRQ “n” that you wish to be interrupt the processor.
Enable global interrupts in the processor.
ILLUSTRATIVE SCENARIO:
GIRQ #8 has 31 GPIOs from pins configured to generate interrupts that will be handled by an 31 ISRs labeled
“GIRQ08_GPIO001_handler”, “GIRQ08_GPIO002_handler”, etc.
The 31 GPIOs are named (from GIRQ #8’s bit 0 through bit 30): GPIO001, GPIO002,….,GPIO030.
EBASE is at 0xbfd0_0000. Firmware places the jump table at address 0xbfd0_0500. The jump table gets populated with
jump instructions to the 31 ISRs.
The firmware programs GIRQ #8’s aggregator control to 0x0000_0501 (bits 17:1 are the vector address, bit 0 is the
GIRQ control to aggregate/dis-aggregate).
Firmware then sets each interrupt source priority to, say, 0x0 (2 bits of priority), which corresponds to priority level 1 to
the processor. Then enables all interrupt lines by writing 0xffff_ffff to GIRQ #8’s interrupt “enable set” register address.
If GPIO029 later fires an interrupt to the controller, the controller will send an EIC vector of 0x5e8 with a requested interrupt priority level 1 to the processor. This causes the processor to vector to the 30th entry in the mini-jump table, which
then jumps to the “GIRQ08_GPIO029_handler” code.
This address: 0x5e8 = vector base + 29*(vector spacing) which is by default 8 bytes.
Later, GPIO002 fires an interrupt to the controller, which causes the controller to send an EIC vector of 0x510 with a
requested interrupt priority level 1 to the processor. This causes the processor to vector to the 3rd entry in the mini-jump
table, which then jumps to the “GIRQ08_GPIO002_handler” code.
10.11.6
HYBRID MODE
The Hybrid is a combination of the aggregated and disaggregated modes.
Each GIRQ group has the option of operating in either aggregated mode or disaggregated mode. This mode is similar
to the disaggregated mode, except the grouped GIRQs will OR their result through bit 0 of that GIRQ. Each GIRQx[n]
Result Bit is assigned the priority-level that is programmed in the corresponding GIRQx[n] Priority bit. The Priority
Encoder and Decision Logic generates the Vector for the active Result bit with the highest priority. If two or more Result
bits are active with the same priority-level the lowest Result Bit wins.
The following diagram illustrates this selection process.

Introduction
The function of the Watchdog Timer is to provide a mechanism to detect if the internal embedded controller has failed.
When enabled, the Watchdog Timer (WDT) circuit will generate a WDT Event if the user program fails to reload the WDT
within a specified length of time known as the WDT Interval.

WDT OPERATION
WDT Activation Mechanism
The WDT is activated by the following sequence of operations during normal operation:
1.
2.
Load the WDT Load Register with the count value.
Set the WDT Enable bit in the WDT Control Register.
The WDT Activation Mechanism starts the WDT decrementing counter.
11.7.1.2
WDT Deactivation Mechanism
The WDT is deactivated by the clearing the WDT Enable bit in the WDT Control Register. The WDT Deactivation Mechanism places the WDT in a low power state in which clock are gated and the counter stops decrementing.
11.7.1.3
WDT Reload Mechanism
The WDT must be reloaded within periods that are shorter than the programmed watchdog interval; otherwise, the WDT
will underflow and a WDT Event will be generated and the WDT Status bit will be set in the WDT Control Register. It is
the responsibility of the user program to continually execute code which reloads the watchdog timer, causing the counter
to be reloaded
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 195
MEC140X/1X
There are three methods of reloading the WDT: a write to the WDT Load Register, a write to the WDT Kick Register, or
WDT event.
11.7.1.4
WDT Interval
The WDT Interval is the time it takes for the WDT to decrements from the WDT Load Register value to 0000h. The WDT
Count Register value takes 33/5Hz_Clk seconds (ex. 33/32.768 KHz = 1.007ms) to decrement by 1 count.

EMBEDDED MEMORY INTERFACE (EMI)
12.1
Introduction
The Embedded Memory Interface (EMI) provides a standard run-time mechanism for the system host to communicate
with the Embedded Controller (EC) and other logical components. The Embedded Memory Interface includes 13 byteaddressable registers in the Host’s address space, as well as 22 bytes of registers that are accessible only by the EC.
The Embedded Memory Interface can be used by the Host to access bytes of memory designated by the EC without
requiring any assistance from the EC. The EC may configure these regions of memory as read-only, write-only, or
read/write capable.
Note:
12.2
The Embedded Memory Interface (EMI) is supported for the LPC interface, however, it is not supported for
eSPI.

Data
The Embedded Memory Interface (EMI) is composed of a mailbox, a direct memory interface, and an Application ID
register.
The mailbox contains two registers, the HOST-to-EC Mailbox Register and the EC-to-HOST Mailbox Register, that act
as a communication portal between the system host and the embedded controller. When the HOST-to-EC Mailbox Register is written an interrupt is generated to the embedded controller. Similarly, when the EC-to-HOST Mailbox Register
is written an interrupt is generated to the system host. The source of the system host interrupt may be read in the Interrupt Source Register. These interrupt events may be individually prevented from generating a Host_SWI_Event via the
Interrupt Mask Register.
The direct memory interface, which is composed of a byte addressable 16-bit EC Address Register and a 32-bit EC
Data Register, permits the Host to read or write a portion of the EC’s internal address space. The embedded controller
may enable up to two regions of the EC’s internal address space to be exposed to the system host. The system host
may access these memory locations without intervention or assistance from the EC.
The Embedded Memory Interface can be configured so that data transfers between the Embedded Memory Interface
data bytes and the 32- bit internal address space may be multiple bytes, while Host I/O is always executed a byte at a
time.
When the Host reads one of the four bytes in the Embedded Memory Interface data register, data from the internal 32bit address space, at the address defined by the Embedded Memory Interface address register, is returned to the Host.
This read access will load 1, 2, or 4 bytes into the Data register depending on the configuration of the ACCESS_TYPE
bits. Similarly, writing one of the four bytes in the data register will write the corresponding byte(s) from the data register
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 201
MEC140X/1X
into the internal 32-bit address space as indicated by the ACCESS_TYPE bits. This configuration option is done to
ensure that data the EC treats as 16-bit or 32-bit will be consistent in the Host, even though one byte of the data may
change between two or more 8-bit accesses by the Host.
In addition, there is an auto-increment function for the Embedded Memory Interface address register. When enabled,
the Host can read or write blocks of memory in the 32- bit internal address space by repeatedly accessing the Embedded
Memory Interface data register, without requiring Host updates to the Embedded Memory Interface address register.
Finally, the Application ID Register may be used by the host to provide an arbitration mechanism if more than one software thread requires access through the EMI interface. See Section 12.8.4, "Embedded Memory Interface Usage," on
page 203 for more details.
12.8.1
EMBEDDED MEMORY MAP
Each Embedded Memory interface provides direct access for the Host into two windows in the EC 32-bit internal
address space. This mapping is shown in Figure , "":

The Base addresses, the Read limits and the Write limits are defined by registers that are in the EC address space and
cannot be accessed by the Host. In each region, the Read limit need not be greater than the Write limit. The regions
can be contiguous or overlapping. For example, if the Region 0 Read limit is set to 0 and the Write limit is set to a positive
DS00001956D-page 202
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
MEC140X/1X
number, then the Embedded Memory interface defines a region in the EC memory that the EC can read and write but
is write-only for the host. This might be useful for storage of security data, which the Host might wish to send to the EC
but should not be readable in the event a virus invades the Host.
Each window into the EC memory can be as large as 32k bytes in the 32-bit internal address space. Table 9-1, “EC
Address Space,” on page 163 shows the host accessible regions.
12.8.2
EC DATA REGISTER
The 4 1-byte EC Data Byte registers function as a 32-bit register, which creates a 4 byte window into the Memory
REGION being accessed. The 4-byte window is always aligned on a 4-byte boundary. Depending on the read/write configuration of the memory region being accessed, the bytes may be extracted from or loaded into memory as a byte,
word, or a DWord. The ACCESS_TYPE determines the size of the memory access. The address accessed is determined by the two EC_Address byte registers, which together function as a 15-bit EC Address Register.
• A write to the EC Data Register when the EC Address is in a read-only or a no-access region, as defined by the
Memory Base and Limit registers, will update the EC Data Register but memory will not be modified.
• A read to the EC Data Register when the EC Address is in a no-access region, as defined by the Memory Base
and Limit registers, will not trigger a memory read and will not modify the EC Data Register. In auto-increment
mode (ACCESS_TYPE=11b), reads of Byte 3 of the EC Data Register will still trigger increments of the EC
Address Register when the address is out of bounds, while writes of Byte 3 will not.
12.8.3
ACCESS TYPES
The access type field (ACCESS_TYPE in the EC Address LSB Register) defines the type of host access that occurs
when the EC Data Register is read or written.
11:Auto-increment 32-bit access. This defines a 32-bit access, as in the 10 case. In addition, any read or write of Byte
3 in the EC Data Register causes the EC Data Register to be incremented by 1. That is, the EC_Address field will point
to the next 32-bit double word in the 32- bit internal address space.
10:32-bit access. A read of Byte 0 in the EC Data Register causes the 32 bits in the 32- bit internal address space at an
offset of EC_Address to be loaded into the entire EC Data Register. The read then returns the contents of Byte 0. A read
of Byte 1, Byte 2 or Byte 3 in the EC Data Register returns the contents of the register, without any update from the 32bit internal address space.
A write of Byte 3 in the EC Data Register causes the EC Data Register to be written into the 32 bits in the 32- bit internal
address space at an offset of EC_Address. A write of Byte 0, Byte 1 or Byte 2 in the EC Data Register updates the
contents of the register, without any change to the 32- bit internal address space.
01:16-bit access. A read of Byte 0 in the EC Data Register causes the 16 bits in the 32- bit internal address space at an
offset of EC_Address to be loaded into Byte 0 and Byte 1 of the EC Data Register. The read then returns the contents
of Byte 0. A read of Byte 2 in the EC Data Register causes the 16 bits in the 32- bit internal address space at an offset
of EC_Address+2 to be loaded into Byte 2 and Byte 3 of the EC Data Register. The read then returns the contents of
Byte 2. A read of Byte 1 or Byte 3 in the EC Data Register return the contents of the register, without any update from
the 32- bit internal address space.
A write of Byte 1 in the EC Data Register causes Bytes 1 and 0 of the EC Data Register to be written into the 16 bits in
the 32- bit internal address space at an offset of EC_Address. A write of Byte 3 in the EC Data Register causes Bytes
3 and 2 of the EC Data Register to be written into the 16 bits in the 32- bit internal address space at an offset of EC_Address+2. A write of Byte 0 or Byte 2 in the EC Data Register updates the contents of the register, without any change
to the 32- bit internal address space.
00:8-bit access. Any byte read of Byte 0 through Byte 3 in the EC Data Register causes the corresponding byte within
the 32-bit double word addressed by EC_Address to be loaded into the byte of EC Data Register and returned by the
read. Any byte write to Byte 0 through Byte 3 in the EC Data Register writes the corresponding byte within the 32-bit
double word addressed by EC_Address, as well as the byte of the EC Data Register.
12.8.4
EMBEDDED MEMORY INTERFACE USAGE
The Embedded Memory Interface provides a generic facility for communication between the Host and the EC and can
be used for many functions. Some examples are:
• Virtual registers. A block of memory in the 32-bit internal address space can be used to implement a set of virtual
registers. The Host is given direct read-only access to this address space, referred to as peek mode. The EC may
read or write this memory as needed.
• Program downloading. Because the Instruction Closely Coupled Memory is implemented in the same 32-bit inter-
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 203
MEC140X/1X
nal address space, the Embedded Memory Interface can be used by the Host to download new program segments for the EC in the upper 32KB SRAM. The Read/Write window would be configured by the Host to point to
the beginning of the loadable program region, which could then be loaded by the Host.
• Data exchange. The Read/Write portion of the memory window can be used to contain a communication packet.
The Host, by default, “owns” the packet, and can write it at any time. When the Host wishes to communicate with
the EC, it sends the EC a command, through the Host-to-EC message facility, to read the packet and perform
some operations as a result. When it is completed processing the packet, the EC can inform the Host, either
through a message in the EC-to-Host channel or by triggering an event such as an SMI directly. If return results
are required, the EC can write the results into the Read/Write region, which the Host can read directly when it is
informed that the EC has completed processing. Depending on the command, the operations could entail update
of virtual registers in the 32-bit internal address space, reads of any register in the EC address space, or writes of
any register in the EC address space. Because there are two regions that are defined by the base registers, the
memory used for the communication packet does not have to be contiguous with a set of virtual registers.
Because there are two Embedded Memory Interface memory regions, the Embedded Memory Interface cannot be used
for more than two of these functions at a time. The Host can request that the EC switch from one function to another
through the use of the Host-to-EC mailbox register.
The Application ID Register is provided to help software applications track ownership of an Embedded Memory Interface. An application can write the register with its Application ID, then immediately read it back. If the read value is not
the same as the value written, then another application has ownership of the interface.
Note:
12.9
The protocol used to pass commands back and forth through the Embedded Memory Interface Registers
Interface is left to the System designer. Microchip can provide an application example of working code in
which the host uses the Embedded Memory Interface registers to gain access to all of the EC registers.

HOST ACCESS PORT
The Mailbox includes a total of 36 index-addressable 8-bit Mailbox registers and a two byte Mailbox Registers Host
Access Port. Thirty-two of the 36 index-addressable 8-bit registers are EC Mailbox registers, which can be read and
written by both the EC and the Host. The remaining four registers are used for signaling between the Host and the EC.
The Host Access Port consists of two 8-bit run-time registers that occupy two addresses in the HOST I/O space, MBX_INDEX Register and MBX_DATA Register. The Host Access Port is used by the host to access the 36 index-addressable 8-bit registers.
To access a Mailbox register once the Mailbox Registers Interface Base Address has been initialized, the Mailbox register index address is first written to the MBX Index port. After the Index port has been written, the Mailbox data byte
can be read or written via the MBX data port.
The Host Access Port is intended to be accessed by the Host only, however it may be accessed by the EC at the Offset
shown from its EC base address in Table 13-2, "Runtime Register Base Address Table".
13.10.2
HOST INTERRUPT GENERATION
The Mailbox can generate a SIRQ event for EC-to-HOST EC events, using the EC-to-Host Mailbox Register. This interrupt is routed to the SIRQ block.
The Mailbox can also generate an SMI event, using SMI Interrupt Source Register. The SMI event can be routed to
any frame in the SIRQ stream as well as to the nSMI pin. The SMI event can be routed to nSMI pin by selecting the
nSMI signal function in the associated GPIO Pin Control Register. The SMI event produces a standard active low frame
on the serial IRQ stream and active low level on the open drain nSMI pin.
Routing for both the SIRQ logic and the nSMI pin is shown in FIGURE 13-3:

EC MAILBOX CONTROL
The HOST-to-EC Mailbox Register and EC-to-Host Mailbox Register are designed to pass commands between the host
and the EC. If enabled, these registers can generate interrupts to both the Host and the EC.
The two registers are not dual-ported, so the HOST BIOS and Keyboard BIOS must be designed to properly share these
registers. When the host performs a write of the HOST-to-EC Mailbox Register, an interrupt will be generated and seen
by the EC if unmasked. When the EC writes FFh to the Mailbox Register, the register resets to 00h, providing a simple
means for the EC to inform the host that an operation has been completed.
When the EC writes the EC-to-Host Mailbox Register, an SMI may be generated and seen by the host if unmasked.
When the Host CPU writes FFh to the register, the register resets to 00h, providing a simple means for the host to inform
that EC that an operation has been completed.
Note:
The protocol used to pass commands back and forth through the Mailbox Registers Interface is left to the
System designer. Microchip can provide an application example of working code in which the host uses the
Mailbox registers to gain access to all of the EC registers.
13.11 Runtime Registers

ACPI EMBEDDED CONTROLLER INTERFACE (ACPI-ECI)
14.1
Introduction
The ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) is a Host/EC Message Interface. The ACPI specification defines
the standard hardware and software communications interface between the OS and an embedded controller. This interface allows the OS to support a standard driver that can directly communicate with the embedded controller, allowing
other drivers within the system to communicate with and use the EC resources; for example, Smart Battery and AML
code.
The ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) provides a four byte full duplex data interface which is a superset
of the standard ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) one byte data interface. The ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) defaults to the standard one byte interface.
The MEC140X/1X has two instances of the ACPI Embedded Controller Interface.
1.
2.
The EC host in TABLE 14-4: and TABLE 14-6: corresponds to the EC in the ACPI specification. This interface
is referred to elsewhere in this chapter as ACPI_EC.
The LPC host in TABLE 14-4: and TABLE 14-6: corresponds to the “System Host Interface to OS” in the ACPI
specification. This interface is referred to elsewhere in this chapter as ACPI_OS.

The usage model from the ACPI specification requires both SMI’s and SCI’s. The ACPI_OS SMI & SCI
interrupts are not implemented in the ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI). The SMI_EVT and
SCI_EVT bits in the OS STATUS OS Register are software flags and this block do not initiate SMI or SCI
events.
Low Power Modes
The ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) automatically enters low power mode when no transaction targets
it.
14.10 Description
The ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) provides an APCI-EC interface that adheres to the ACPI specification. The ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) includes two modes of operation: Legacy Mode and Fourbyte Mode.
The ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) defaults to Legacy Mode which provides single byte Full Duplex
operation. Legacy Mode corresponds to the ACPI specification functionality as illustrated in FIGURE 14-2: on page 228.
The EC interrupts in FIGURE 14-2: on page 228 are implemented as OBF & IBF. See Section 14.8, "Interrupts," on
page 227.
In Four-byte Mode, the ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) provides four byte Full Duplex operation. Fourbyte Mode is a superset of the ACPI specification functionality as illustrated in FIGURE 14-2: on page 228.
Both Legacy Mode & Four-byte Mode provide Full Duplex Communications which allows data/command transfers in
one direction while maintaining data from the other direction; communications can flow both ways simultaneously.
In Legacy Mode, ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) contains three registers: ACPI OS COMMAND Register, OS STATUS OS Register, and OS2EC Data EC Byte 0 Register. The standard ACPI Embedded Controller Interface (ACPI-ECI) registers occupy two addresses in the ACPI_OS space (TABLE 14-5:).
The OS2EC Data EC Byte 0 Register and ACPI OS COMMAND Register registers appear as a single 8-bit data register
in the ACPI_EC. The CMD bit in the OS STATUS OS Register is used by the ACPI_EC to discriminate commands from
data written by the ACPI_OS to the ACPI_EC. CMD bit is controlled by hardware: ACPI_OS writes to the OS2EC Data
EC Byte 0 Register register clear the CMD bit; ACPI_OS writes to the ACPI OS COMMAND Register set the CMD bit.

The setting and clearing of this IBF varies depending
on the setting of the following bits: CMD bit in this register and FOUR_BYTE_ACCESS bit in the OS Byte
Control Register. Three scenarios follow:
1.
The IBF is set when the ACPI_OS writes to the ACPI OS
COMMAND Register. This same write autonomously sets
the CMD bit in this register.
The IBF is cleared if the CMD bit in this register is set and the
ACPI_EC reads from the OS2EC Data EC Byte 0 Register.
Note:
When CMD bit in this register is set the FOUR_BYTE_ACCESS bit in the OS Byte Control Register has no
impact on the IBF bit behavior.
2.
A write by the to the ACPI_OS to the ACPI OS Data Register
Byte 0 Register sets the IBF bit if the FOUR_BYTE_ACCESS bit in the OS Byte Control Register is in the cleared to
‘0’ state prior to this write. This same write autonomously
clears the CMD bit in this register.
A read of the OS2EC Data EC Byte 0 Register clears the IBF bit if
the FOUR_BYTE_ACCESS bit in the OS Byte Control Register is
in the cleared to ‘0’ state prior to this read.
3.
A write by the to the ACPI_OS to the ACPI OS Data Register
Byte 3 Register sets the IBF bit if the FOUR_BYTE_ACCESS bit in the OS Byte Control Register is in the set to ‘1’
state prior to this write. This same write autonomously
clears the CMD bit in this register.
A read of the OS2EC Data EC Byte 3 Register clears the IBF bit if
the FOUR_BYTE_ACCESS bit in the OS Byte Control Register is
in the set to ‘1’ state prior to this read.
An IBF interrupt signals the ACPI_EC that there is data available.
The ACPI Specification usage model is as follows:
1. The ACPI_EC reads the EC STATUS Register and sees the
IBF flag set,
2. The ACPI_EC reads all the data available in the OS2EC
DATA BYTES[3:0]. This causes the IBF bit to be automatically cleared by hardware.
3. The ACPI_EC must then generate a software interrupt (See
Note: on page 227) to alert the ACPI_OS that the data has
been read and that the host is free to write more data to the
ACPI_EC as needed.

The setting and clearing of this OBF varies depending
on the setting FOUR_BYTE_ACCESS bit in the OS
Byte Control Register. Two scenarios follow:
1.
The OBF bit is set if the Four Byte Access bit in the OS Byte
Control Register is ‘0’ when the ACPI_EC writes to the
EC2OS Data EC Byte 0 Register.
The OBF is cleared if the Four Byte Access bit in the OS Byte
Control Register is cleared to ‘0’ when the ACPI_OS reads from
the ACPI OS Data Register Byte 0 Register.
2.
The OBF is set if the Four Byte Access bit in the OS Byte
Control Register is set to ‘1’ when the ACPI_EC writes to the
EC2OS Data EC Byte 3 Register.
The OBF is cleared if the Four Byte Access bit in the OS Byte
Control Register is set to ‘1’ when the ACPI_OS reads from the
ACPI OS Data Register Byte 3 Register.
The ACPI Specification usage model is as follows:
1. The ACPI_EC must generate a software interrupt (See
Note: on page 227) to alert the ACPI_OS that the data is
available.
2. The ACPI_OS reads the OS STATUS OS Register and sees
the OBF flag set, the ACPI_OS reads all the data available
in the ACPI-OS DATA BYTES[3:0].
3. The ACPI_OS reads all the data available in the ACPI-OS
DATA BYTES[3:0]. This causes the OBF bit to be automatically cleared by hardware and the associated OBF interrupt
to be asserted.

This section describes the functions of the ACPI PM1 Block Interface in more detail.
The MEC140X/1X implements the ACPI fixed registers but includes only those bits that apply to the power button sleep
button and RTC alarm events. The ACPI WAK_STS, SLP_TYP, and SLP_EN bits are also supported.
The MEC140X/1X can generate SCI Interrupts to the Host. The functions described in the following sub-sections can
generate a SCI event on the EC_SCI# pin. In the MEC140X/1X, an SCI event is considered the same as an ACPI
wakeup or runtime event.

Event Bit
Definition
PWRBTN_STS
The power button has a status and an enable bit in the PM1_BLK of registers to provide an SCI upon the button press. The status bit is software
Read/Writable by the EC; the enable bit is Read-only by the EC. It also
has a status and enable bit in the PM1_BLK of registers to indicate and
control the power button override (fail-safe) event. These bits are not
required by ACPI.
The PWRBTN_STS bit is set by the Host to enable the generation of an
SCI due to the power button event. The status bit is set by the EC when it
generates a power button event and is cleared by the Host writing a ‘1’ to
this bit (writing a ‘0’ has no effect); it can also be cleared by the EC. If the
enable bit is set, the EC generates an SCI power management event.
PWRBTNOR_STS
The power button has a status and an enable bit in the PM1_BLK of registers to provide an SCI upon the power button override.The power button
override event status bit is software Read/Writable by the EC; the enable
bit is software read-only by the EC.The enable bit for the override event is
located at bit 1 in the Power Management 1 Control Register 2 (PM1_CNTRL 2).The power button bit has a status and enable bit in the Runtime
Registers to provide an SCI power management event on a button press
The PWRBTNOR_STS bit is set by the Host to enable the generation of
an SCI due to the power button override event. The status bit is set by the
EC when it generates a power button event and is cleared by the Host
writing a ‘1’ to this bit (writing a ‘0’ has no effect); it can also be cleared by
the EC. If the enable bit is set, the EC generates an SCI power management event.

SLPBTN_STS
Definition
The sleep button that has a status and an enable bit in the Runtime Registers to provide an SCI power management event on a button press. The
status bit is software Read/Writable by the EC; the enable bit is Read-only
by the EC.
The SLPBTN_STS bit is set by the Host to enable the generation of an
SCI due to the sleep button event. The status bit is set by the EC when it
generates a sleep button event and is cleared by the Host writing a ‘1’ to
this bit (writing a ‘0’ has no effect); it can also be cleared by the EC. If the
enable bit is set, the EC will generate an SCI power management event.
RTC Alarm
RTC_STS
The ACPI specification requires that the RTC alarm generate a hardware
wake-up event from the sleeping state. The RTC alarm can be enabled as
an SCI event and its status can be determined through bits in the Runtime
Registers. The status bit is software Read/Writable by the EC; the enable
bit is Read-only by the EC.
The RTC_STS bit is set by the Host to enable the generation of an SCI
due to the RTC alarm event. The status bit is set by the EC when the RTC
generates an alarm event and is cleared by the Host writing a ‘1’ to this bit
(writing a ‘0’ has no effect); it can also be cleared by the EC. If the enable
bit is set, the EC will generate an SCI power management event.

16.10 EC-to-Host Keyboard Communication
The EC can write to the EC_HOST Data / AUX Data Register by writing to the HOST2EC Data Register at EC-Only
offset 0h or the EC AUX Data Register at EC-Only offset Ch. A write to either of these addresses automatically sets bit
0 (OBF) in the Status register. A write to the HOST2EC Data Register may also set PCOBF. A write to the EC AUX Data
Register may also set AUXOBF.
16.10.1
PCOBF DESCRIPTION
If enabled by the bit OBFEN, the bit PCOBF is gated onto KIRQ. The KIRQ signal is a system interrupt which signifies
that the EC has written to the EC2Host Data Register (EC-Only offset 0h). On power-up, PCOBF is reset to 0. PCOBF
will normally reflect the status of writes to EC2Host Data Register, if PCOBFEN is “0”. PCOBF is cleared by hardware
on a HOST read of the EC_HOST Data / AUX Data Register.
KIRQ is normally selected as IRQ1 for keyboard support.
Additional flexibility has been added which allows firmware to directly control the PCOBF output signal, independent of
data transfers to the host-interface data output register. This feature allows the MEC140X/1X to be operated via the host
“polled” mode. Firmware control is active when PCOBFEN is ‘1’. Firmware sets PCOBF high by writing a “1” to the
PCOBF field of the PCOBF Register. Firmware must also clear PCOBF by writing a “0” to the PCOBF field.
DS00001956D-page 256
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
MEC140X/1X
The PCOBF register is also readable; the value read back on bit 0 of the register always reflects the present value of
the PCOBF output. If PCOBFEN = 1, then this value reflects the output of the firmware latch in the PCOBF Register. If
PCOBFEN = 0, then the value read back reflects the in-process status of write cycles to the HOST2EC Data Register
(i.e., if the value read back is high, the host interface output data register has just been written to). If OBFEN=0, then
KIRQ is driven inactive (low).
16.10.2
AUXOBF DESCRIPTION
If enabled by the bit OBFEN, the bit AUXOBF is multiplexed onto MIRQ. The AUXOBF/MIRQ signal is a system interrupt
which signifies that the EC has written to the EC_HOST Data / AUX Data Register. On power-up, after nSYSRST,
AUXOBF is reset to 0. AUXOBF will normally reflects the status of writes to EC EC AUX Data Register (EC-Only offset
Ch). AUXOBF is cleared by hardware on a read of the Host Data Register. If OBFEN=0, then MIRQ is driven inactive
(low).
MIRQ is normally selected as IRQ12 for mouse support.
Firmware can also directly control the AUXOBF output signal, similar to the mechanism it can use to control PCOBF.
Firmware control is active when AUXH is ‘0’. Firmware sets AUXOBF high by writing a “1” to the AUXOBF field of the
EC Keyboard Status Register. Firmware must also clear AUXOBF by writing a “0” to the AUXOBF field.

16.11 Legacy Port92/GATEA20 Support
The MEC140X/1X supports LPC I/O writes to port HOST I/O address 92h as a quick alternate mechanism for generating
a CPU_RESET pulse or controlling the state of GATEA20. The Port92/GateA20 logic has a separate Logical Device
Number and Base Address register (see Section 16.16, "Legacy Port92/GATEA20 Configuration Registers" and Section
16.17, "Legacy Port92/GATEA20 Runtime Registers". The Base Address Register for the Port92/GateA20 Logical
Device has only one writable bit, the Valid Bit, since the only I/O accessible Register has a fixed address.
The Port 92 Register resides at HOST I/O address 92h and is used to support the alternate reset (ALT_RST#) and alternate GATEA20 (ALT_A20) functions. This register defaults to 00h on assertion of nSIO_RESET.
Setting the Port92 Enable bit (Port 92 Enable Register) enables the Port92h Register. When Port92 is disabled, by clearing the Port92 Enable bit, then access to this register is completely disabled (I/O writes to host 92h are ignored and I/O
reads float the system data bus SD[7:0]).
16.11.1
GATE A20 SPEEDUP
The MEC140X/1X contains on-chip logic support for the GATEA20 hardware speed-up feature. GATEA20 is part of the
control required to mask address line A20 to emulate 8086 addressing.
In addition to the ability for the host to control the GATEA20 output signal directly, a configuration bit called SAEN in the
Keyboard Control Register is provided; when set, SAEN allows firmware to control the GATEA20 output. When SAEN
is set, a 1 bit register (GATEA20 Control Register) controls the GATEA20 output.
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 257
MEC140X/1X
Host control and firmware control of GATEA20 affect two separate register elements. Read back of GATEA20 through
the use of EC OFFSET 100h reflects the present state of the GATEA20 output signal: if SAEN is set, the value read
back corresponds to the last firmware-initiated control of GATEA20; if SAEN is reset, the value read back corresponds
to the last host-initiated control of GATEA20.
Host control of the GATEA20 output is provided by the hardware interpretation of the “GATEA20 sequence” (see
Table 16-4, "GATEA20 Command/Data Sequence Examples"). The foregoing description assumes that the SAEN configuration bit is reset.
When the MEC140X/1X receives a “D1” command followed by data (via the host interface), the on-chip hardware copies
the value of data bit 1 in the received data field to the GATEA20 host latch. At no time during this host-interface transaction will PCOBF or the IBF flag (bit 1) in the EC Keyboard Status Register be activated; for example, this host control
of GATEA20 is transparent to firmware, with no consequent degradation of overall system performance. TABLE 16-4:
details the possible GATEA20 sequences and the MEC140X/1X responses.
An additional level of control flexibility is offered via a memory-mapped synchronous set and reset capability. Any data
written to the SETGA20L Register causes the GATEA20 host latch to be set; any data written to the RSTGA20L Register
causes it to be reset. This control mechanism should be used with caution. It was added to augment the “normal” control
flow as described above, not to replace it. Since the host and the firmware have asynchronous control capability of the
host latch via this mechanism, a potential conflict could arise. Therefore, after using the SETGA20L and RSTGA20L
registers, firmware should read back the GATEA20 status via the GATEA20 Control Register (with SAEN = 0) to confirm
the actual GATEA20 response.

CPU_RESET HARDWARE SPEED-UP
The ALT_CPU_RESET bit generates, under program control, the ALT_RST# signal, which provides an alternate, means
to drive the MEC140X/1X CPU_RESET pin which in turn is used to reset the Host CPU. The ALT_RST# signal is internally NANDed together with the KBDRESET# pulse from the KRESET Speed up logic to provide an alternate software
means of resetting the host CPU.
Before another ALT_RST# pulse can be generated, ALT_CPU_RESET must be cleared to ‘0’ either by an nSIO_RESET
or by a write to the Port 92 Register with bit 0 = ‘0’. An ALT_RST# pulse is not generated in the event that the
ALT_CPU_RESET bit is cleared and set before the prior ALT_RESET# pulse has completed.
If the 8042EM Sleep Enable is asserted, or the 8042 EM ACTIVATE bit is de-asserted, the 1MHz clocks source is disabled.

Output
Description
Active low Data Carrier Detect input for the serial port.
Handshake signal which notifies the UART that carrier signal is
detected by the modem. The CPU can monitor the status of DCD#
signal by reading bit 7 of Modem Status Register (MSR). A DCD#
signal state change from low to high after the last MSR read will
set MSR bit 3 to a 1. If bit 3 of Interrupt Enable Register is set, the
interrupt is generated when DCD # changes state.

DSR#
Input
Active low Data Set Ready input for the serial port. Handshake
signal which notifies the UART that the modem is ready to establish the communication link. The CPU can monitor the status of
DSR# signal by reading bit 5 of Modem Status Register (MSR). A
DSR# signal state change from low to high after the last MSR read
will set MSR bit 1 to a 1. If bit 3 of Interrupt Enable Register is set,
the interrupt is generated when DSR# changes state.
RI#
Input
Active low Ring Indicator input for the serial port. Handshake signal which notifies the UART that the telephone ring signal is
detected by the modem. The CPU can monitor the status of RI#
signal by reading bit 6 of Modem Status Register (MSR). A RI#
signal state change from low to high after the last MSR read will
set MSR bit 2 to a 1. If bit 3 of Interrupt Enable Register is set, the
interrupt is generated when nRI changes state.
RTS#
Output
Active low Request to Send output for the Serial Port. Handshake
output signal notifies modem that the UART is ready to transmit
data. This signal can be programmed by writing to bit 1 of the
Modem Control Register (MCR). The hardware reset will reset the
RTS# signal to inactive mode (high). RTS# is forced inactive
during loop mode operation. Defaults to tri-state on V3_DUAL
power on.
CTS#
Input
Active low Clear to Send input for the serial port. Handshake signal which notifies the UART that the modem is ready to receive
data. The CPU can monitor the status of CTS# signal by reading
bit 4 of Modem Status Register (MSR). A CTS# signal state
change from low to high after the last MSR read will set MSR bit 0
to a 1. If bit 3 of the Interrupt Enable Register is set, the interrupt is
generated when CTS# changes state. The CTS# signal has no
effect on the transmitter.

17.9
Description
The UART is compatible with the 16450, the 16450 ACE registers and the 16C550A. The UART performs serial-to-parallel conversions on received characters and parallel-to-serial conversions on transmit characters. Two sets of baud
rates are provided. When the 1.8432 MHz source clock is selected, standard baud rates from 50 to 115.2K are available.
When the source clock is 32.26 MHz, baud rates from 126K to 2,016K are available. The character options are programmable for 1 start; 1, 1.5 or 2 stop bits; even, odd, sticky or no parity; and prioritized interrupts. The UART contains a
programmable baud rate generator that is capable of dividing the input clock signal by 1 to 65535. The UART is also
capable of supporting the MIDI data rate. Refer to the Configuration Registers for information on disabling, powering
down and changing the base address of the UART. The UART interrupt is enabled by programming OUT2 of the UART
to logic “1.” Because OUT2 is logic “0,” it disables the UART's interrupt. The UART is accessible by both the Host and
the EC.
17.9.1
PROGRAMMABLE BAUD RATE
The Serial Port contains a programmable Baud Rate Generator that is capable of dividing the internal clock source by
any divisor from 1 to 65535. The clock source is either the 1.8432MHz_Clk clock source or the 24MHz_Clk clock source.
The output frequency of the Baud Rate Generator is 16x the Baud rate. Two eight bit latches store the divisor in 16 bit
binary format. These Divisor Latches must be loaded during initialization in order to ensure desired operation of the
Baud Rate Generator. Upon loading either of the Divisor Latches, a 16 bit Baud counter is immediately loaded. This
prevents long counts on initial load. If a 0 is loaded into the BRG registers, the output divides the clock by the number
3. If a 1 is loaded, the output is the inverse of the input oscillator. If a two is loaded, the output is a divide by 2 signal with
a 50% duty cycle. If a 3 or greater is loaded, the output is low for 2 bits and high for the remainder of the count.
The following tables show possible baud rates.

The lower four bits of this register control the enables of the five interrupt sources of the Serial Port interrupt. It is possible
to totally disable the interrupt system by resetting bits 0 through 3 of this register. Similarly, setting the appropriate bits
of this register to a high, selected interrupts can be enabled. Disabling the interrupt system inhibits the Interrupt Identification Register and disables any Serial Port interrupt out of the MEC140X/1X. All other system functions operate in

INTERRUPT IDENTIFICATION REGISTER
By accessing this register, the host CPU can determine the highest priority interrupt and its source. Four levels of priority
interrupt exist. They are in descending order of priority:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Receiver Line Status (highest priority)
Received Data Ready
Transmitter Holding Register Empty
MODEM Status (lowest priority)
Information indicating that a prioritized interrupt is pending and the source of that interrupt is stored in the Interrupt Identification Register (refer to TABLE 17-8:). When the CPU accesses the IIR, the Serial Port freezes all interrupts and indicates the highest priority pending interrupt to the CPU. During this CPU access, even if the Serial Port records new
interrupts, the current indication does not change until access is completed. The contents of the IIR are described below.

LOOPBACK
This bit provides the loopback feature for diagnostic testing of the
Serial Port. When bit 4 is set to logic “1”, the following occur:
1. The TXD is set to the Marking State (logic “1”).
2. The receiver Serial Input (RXD) is disconnected.
3. The output of the Transmitter Shift Register is “looped back”
into the Receiver Shift Register input.
4. All MODEM Control inputs (nCTS, nDSR, nRI and nDCD)
are disconnected.
5. The four MODEM Control outputs (nDTR, nRTS, OUT1 and
OUT2) are internally connected to the four MODEM Control
inputs (nDSR, nCTS, RI, DCD).
6. The Modem Control output pins are forced inactive high.
7. Data that is transmitted is immediately received.
This feature allows the processor to verify the transmit and receive
data paths of the Serial Port. In the diagnostic mode, the receiver
and the transmitter interrupts are fully operational. The MODEM
Control Interrupts are also operational but the interrupts' sources
are now the lower four bits of the MODEM Control Register instead

reads the contents of the Line Status Register. In the FIFO mode
this error is associated with the particular character in the FIFO it
applies to. This error is indicated when the associated character
is at the top of the FIFO. When break occurs only one zero character is loaded into the FIFO. Restarting after a break is
received, requires the serial data (RXD) to be logic “1” for at

RTOS TIMER
19.1
Introduction
The RTOS Timer is a low-power, 32-bit timer designed to operate on the 32kHz oscillator which is available during all
chip sleep states. This allows firmware the option to sleep the processor, enter heavy or deep chip sleep states, and
wake after a programmed amount of time. The timer may be used as a one-shot timer or a continuous timer. When the
timer transitions to 0 it is capable of generating a wake-capable interrupt to the embedded controller. This timer may be
halted during debug by hardware or via a software control bit.

DESCRIPTION
Note:
The RTOS Timer block generates a pulse anytime the RTOS
Timer transitions from 1 to 0. This pulse is used to generate a
wake-capable interrupt event that is latched by the Jump Table
Vectored Interrupt Controller (JTVIC).
Low Power Modes
The RTOS Timer may be put into a low power state by the chip Power, Clocks, and Reset (PCR) circuitry.
The timer operates off of the 32KHz_Clk, and therefore will operate normally when 48 MHz Ring Oscillator is stopped.
The sleep enable input has no effect on the RTOS Timer and the clock required output is only asserted during register
read/write cycles for as long as necessary to propagate updates to the block core.
19.7.1
SLEEP INTERFACE - SYSTEM CLOCK
The RTOS Timer is designed to always operate in its lowest functional power consumption state. In addition, it can be
commanded to enter a lower power state via the Sleep Enable signal. The block notifies the chip’s power management
circuitry when it is in its low power state by driving the Clock Required signal low. The following table defines all the
blocks Power States associated with the System Clock.

DESCRIPTION
The RTOS Timer Registers are readable and writable in all defined Power States.
WAKING FROM LOW POWER STATES
The chip Power, Clocks, and Resets logic is responsible for monitoring wake events that turn on 48 MHz Ring Oscillator.
The RTOS_TIMER interrupt event is a wake-capable event that may be used to turn on 48 MHz Ring Oscillator.
19.8
Description
The RTOS Timer is a very basic timer with simple down counter functionality with auto-reload and halt features. The
timer counts with Timer Clock when the timer is programmed with pre-load value.
The counter can be configured as one-shot timer by not setting the Auto Reload bit. The timer will load the value of the
pre-load register and start to count down when the Timer Start bit is asserted by the firmware. The timer will generate
interrupt when the counter transitions from count = 1 to count = 0 as defined in the Interrupt Generation section.
If the timer is needed again with same pre-load value, firmware has to only set the Timer Start bit. This will restart the
timer again.
The counter can also be programmed as continuous running mode by enabling the Auto Reload bit. In this mode counter
reloads itself every time timer equals 0. The timer also generates interrupt as defined in the interrupt section.
If the RTOS Timer Pre-Load register is written when the counter is counting, the new preload value will take effect only
when the counter reaches 0 if the auto-reload bit has been set.
If the RTOS Timer Pre-Load register is programmed with 32’h0 while the Timer is counting, the Timer will continue to
count until it counts to 0. Then the Timer Start bit will be cleared. If the Timer Start bit is written when the RTOS Timer
Pre-Load register is 0, the Timer Start bit will be self-cleared.
19.8.1
EXTERNAL HARDWARE HALT
The Halt signal is an input signal to the block. This signal when asserted (high) and enabled in the Timer Control Register will halt the counter. When this signal is de-asserted (low), the timer will continue to count.
19.8.2
FIRMWARE HALT
The Timer can also be halted by setting Firmware Timer Halt bit in the Timer Control Register.

HIBERNATION TIMER
20.1
Introduction
The Hibernation Timer can generate a wake event to the Embedded Controller (EC) when it is in a hibernation mode.
This block supports wake events up to 2 hours in duration. The timer is a 16-bit binary count-down timer that can be
programmed in 30.5µs and 0.125 second increments for period ranges of 30.5µs to 2s or 0.125s to 136.5 minutes,
respectively. Writing a non-zero value to this register starts the counter from that value. A wake-up interrupt is generated
when the count reaches zero.

Description
WEEK_ALARM_INT
This interrupt is signaled to the Interrupt Aggregator when the Week
Alarm Counter Register is greater than or equal to the Week Timer Compare Register. The interrupt signal is always generated by the RTC/Week
Timer if the block is enabled; the interrupt is enabled or disabled in the
Interrupt Aggregator.
SUB_WEEK_ALARM_INT
This interrupt is signaled to the Interrupt Aggregator when the Sub-Week
Alarm Counter Register decrements from ‘1’ to ‘0’. The interrupt signal is
always generated by the RTC/Week Timer if the block is enabled; the
interrupt is enabled or disabled in the Interrupt Aggregator.
ONE_SECOND
This interrupt is signaled to the Interrupt Aggregator at an isochronous
rate of once per second. The interrupt signal is always generated by the
RTC/Week Timer if the block is enabled; the interrupt is enabled or disabled in the Interrupt Aggregator.
SUB_SECOND
This interrupt is signaled to the Interrupt Aggregator at an isochronous
rate programmable between 0.5Hz and 32.768KHz. The rate interrupts
are signaled is determined by the SPISR field in the Sub-Second Programmable Interrupt Select Register. See Table 21-10, "SPISR Encoding". The interrupt signal is always generated by the RTC/Week Timer if
the block is enabled; the interrupt is enabled or disabled in the Interrupt
Aggregator.
SYSPWR_PRES
This wake interrupt is signaled to the Interrupt Aggregator when an Alarm
event occurs. The associated GPIO pin Control Register must be programmed in order to configure the interrupt condition.
Low Power Modes
The RTC/Week Alarm has no low-power modes. It runs continuously while the VBAT well is powered.
21.8
Power-Up Events
The RTC/Week Timer POWER_UP_EVENT can be used to power up the system after a timed interval. The POWER_UP_EVENT is routed to the VBAT-Powered Control Interface. The VCI_OUT pin that is part of the VCI is asserted
if the POWER_UP_EVENT is asserted.
The POWER_UP_EVENT can be asserted under the following two conditions:
1.
2.
The Week Alarm Counter Register is greater than or equal to the Week Timer Compare Register
The Sub-Week Alarm Counter Register decrements from ‘1’ to ‘0’
The assertion of the POWER_UP_EVENT is inhibited by the following two conditions:
1.
2.
The POWERUP_EN field in the Control Register is ‘0’
The SYSPWR_PRES_ENABLE field in the Sub-Week Control Register is ‘1’ and the SYSPWR_PRES input pin
is ‘0’. This option permits inhibiting a timeout causing a system wake during a deep sleep and draining the battery
if AC Power is not present.
Once a POWER_UP_EVENT is asserted the POWERUP_EN bit must be cleared to reset the output. Clearing
POWERUP_EN is necessary to avoid unintended power-up cycles.

Description
The RTC/Week Alarm block provides battery-powered timekeeping functions, derived from a low-power 32KHz clock,
that operate even when the device’s main power is off. The block contains a set of counters that can be used to generate
one-shot and periodic interrupts to the EC for periods ranging from about 30 microseconds to over 8 years. The
RTC/Week Alarm can be used in conjunction with the VBAT-Powered Control Interface to power up a sleeping system
after a configurable period.
In addition to basic timekeeping, the RTC/Week Alarm block can be used to control the battery-powered general purpose BGPO outputs.
21.9.1
INTERNAL COUNTERS
The RTC/Week Timer includes 3 counters:
21.9.1.1
28-bit Week Alarm Counter
This counter is 28 bits wide. The clock for this counter is the overflow of the Clock Divider, and as long as the RTC/Week
Timer is enabled, it is incremented at a 1 Hz rate.
Both an interrupt and a power-up event can be generated when the contents of this counter matches the contents of the
Week Timer Compare Register.
21.9.1.2
9-bit Sub-Week Alarm Counter
This counter is 9 bits wide. It is decremented by 1 at each tick of its selected clock. It can be configured either as a oneshot or repeating event generator.
Both an interrupt and a power-up event can be generated when this counter decrements from 1 to 0.
The Sub-Week Alarm Counter can be configured with a number of different clock sources for its time base, derived from
either the Week Alarm Counter or the Clock Divider, by setting the SUBWEEK_TICK field of the Sub-Week Control Register.

Note 1: The Week Alarm Counter must not be modified by firmware if Sub-Week Alarm Counter is using the Week
Alarm Counter as its clock source (i.e., the SUBWEEK_TICK field is set to any of the values 4, 5, 6 or 7).
The Sub-Week Alarm Counter must be disabled before changing the Week Alarm Counter. For example,
the following sequence may be used:
1. Write 0h to the Sub-Week Alarm Counter Register (disabling the Sub-Week Counter)
2. Write the Week Alarm Counter Register
3. Write a new value to the Sub-Week Alarm Counter Register, restarting the Sub-Week Counter
21.9.1.3
15-bit Clock Divider
This counter is 15 bits wide. The clock for this counter is 32KHz_Clk, and as long as the RTC/Week Timer is enabled,
it is incremented at 32.768KHz rate. The Clock Divider automatically The Clock Divider generates a clock out of 1 Hz
when the counter wraps from 7FFFh to 0h.
By selecting one of the 15 bits of the counter, using the Sub-Second Programmable Interrupt Select Register, the Clock
Divider can be used either to generate a time base for the Sub-Week Alarm Counter or as an isochronous interrupt to
the EC, the SUB_SECOND interrupt.. See Table 21-10, "SPISR Encoding" for a list of available frequencies.
21.9.2
TIMER VALID STATUS
If power on reset occurs on the VBAT power rail while the main device power is off, the counters in the RTC/Week Alarm
are invalid. If firmware detects a POR on the VBAT power rail after a system boot, by checking the status bits in the
Power, Clocks and Resets registers, the RTC/Week Alarm block must be reinitialized.
21.9.3
APPLICATION NOTE: REGISTER TIMING
Register writes in the RTC/Week Alarm complete within two cycles of the 32KHz_Clk clock.The write completes even
if the main system clock is stopped before the two cycles of the 32K clock complete. Register reads complete in one
cycle of the internal bus clock.
All RTC/Week Alarm interrupts that are asserted within the same cycle of the 32KHz_Clk clock are synchronously
asserted to the EC.
21.9.4
APPLICATION NOTE: USE OF THE WEEK TIMER AS A 43-BIT COUNTER
The Week Timer cannot be directly used as a 42-bit counter that is incremented directly by the 32.768KHz clock domain.
The upper 28 bits (28-bit Week Alarm Counter) are incremented at a 1Hz rate and the lower 16 bits (15-bit Clock Divider)
are incremented at a 32.768KHz rate, but the increments are not performed in parallel. In particular, the upper 28 bits
are incremented when the lower 15 bits increment from 0 to 1, so as long as the Clock Divider Register is 0 the two
registers together, treated as a single value, have a smaller value then before the lower register rolled over from 7FFFh
to 0h.
The following code can be used to treat the two registers as a single large counter. This example extracts a 32-bit value
from the middle of the 43-bit counter:
dword TIME_STAMP(void)
{
AHB_dword wct_value;
AHB_dword cd_value1;
AHB_dword cd_value2;
dword irqEnableSave;

(PU_PD) resistors, asynchronous wakeup and synchronous Interrupt Detection (int_det), GPIO Direction, and Polarity
control, as well as control of pin drive strength and slew rate.
Features of the GPIO Interface include:
• Inputs:
- Asynchronous rising and falling edge wakeup detection
- Interrupt High or Low Level
• On Output:
- Push Pull or Open Drain output
• Pull up or pull down resistor control
• Interrupt and wake capability available for all GPIOs

Source
GPIO_Event
Description
Each pin in the GPIO Interface has the ability to generate an interrupt
event. This event may be used as a wake event.
The GPIO Interface can generate an interrupt source event on a high
level, low level, rising edge and falling edge, as configured by the
Interrupt Detection (int_det) bits in the Pin Control Register associated
with the GPIO signal function.
Note:
22.5
The minimum pulse width required to generate an interrupt/wakeup event is 5ns.
Description
The GPIO Interface refers to all the GPIOxxx pins implemented in the design. GPIO stands for General Purpose I/O.
The GPIO signals may be used by firmware to both monitor and control a pin in “bit-banged” mode. The GPIOs may be
individually controlled via their Pin Control Register or group controlled via the Output and Input GPIO registers. The
GPIO Output Control Select
The GPIO Pin control registers are used to select the alternate functions on GPIO pins (unless otherwise specified), to
control the buffer direction, strength, and polarity, to control the internal pull-ups and pull-downs, for VCC emulation, and
for selecting the event type that causes a GPIO interrupt.
The GPIO input is always live, even when an alternate function is selected. Firmware may read the GPIO input anytime
to see the value on the pin. In addition, the GPIO interrupt is always functional, and may be used for either the GPIO
itself or to support the alternate functions on the pin. See FIGURE 22-1: GPIO Interface Block Diagram on page 319.
22.5.1
ACCESSING GPIOS
There are two ways to access GPIO output data. Bit [10] is used to determine which GPIO output data bit affects the
GPIO output pin.
DS00001956D-page 320
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
MEC140X/1X
• Grouped Output GPIO Data
- Outputs to individual GPIO ports are grouped into 32-bit GPIO Output Registers.
• Individual GPIO output data
- Alternatively, each GPIO output port is individually accessible via Bit [16] in the port’s Pin Control Register. On
reads, Bit [16] returns the programmed value, not the value on the pin.
There are two ways to access GPIO input data.
• Input GPIO Data
- Inputs from individual GPIO ports are grouped into 32-bit GPIO Input Registers and always reflect the current
state of the GPIO input from the pad.
• GPIO input from pad
- Alternatively, each GPIO input port is individually accessible via Bit [24] in the port’s Pin Control Register. Bit
[24] always reflects the current state of GPIO input from the pad.
22.5.2
GPIO INDEXING
Each GPIO signal function name consists of a 4-character prefix (“GPIO”) followed by a 3-digit octal-encoded index
number. In the MEC140X/1X GPIO indexing is done sequentially starting from ‘GPIO000.’
22.5.3
GPIO MULTIPLEXING

PIN CONTROL REGISTERS
Each GPIO has two Pin Control registers. The Pin Control Register, which is the primary register, is used to read the
value of the input data and set the output either high or low. It is used to select the alternate function via the Mux Control
bits, set the Polarity of the input, configure and enable the output buffer, configure the GPIO interrupt event source,
enable internal pull-up/pull-down resistors, and to enable VCC Emulation via the Power Gating Signals control bits. The
Pin Control Register 2 is used to configure the output buffer drive strength and slew rate.
The following tables define the default settings for the two Pin Control registers for each GPIO in each product group.

Note 22-3
The GPIO input and output registers are LPC I/O accessible via Region 0 of the EMI block. This
access is defined in the EMI Protocols chapter of the firmware specification.
Note 22-4
There is no Pin Control Register 2 for GPIO064 and GPIO067, which are PCI_PIO buffer type pins.
The drive strength and slew rate are not configurable on these pins.
Note 22-5
The drive strength and slew rate are not configurable for the LPC functions on GPIO034, GPIO061,
GPIO063, and GPIO40 - GPIO044 since they are controlled by the PCI_PIO type buffers.
22.6.1
PIN CONTROL REGISTERS
Two Pin Control Registers are implemented for each GPIO. The Pin Control Register format is described in Section
22.6.1.1, "Pin Control Register," on page 335. The Pin Control Register 2 format is described in Section 22.6.1.2, "Pin
Control Register 2," on page 339. Pin Control Register address offsets and defaults for each product are defined in
Section 22.5.4.1, "MEC140x Pin Control Registers Defaults," on page 326, and Section 22.5.4.2, "MEC141x Pin Control

11 Polarity
0 = Non-inverted
1 = Inverted
When the Polarity bit is set to ‘1’ and the Mux Control bits are greater
than ‘00,’ the selected signal function outputs are inverted and Interrupt Detection (int_det) sense defined in Table 22-3, "Edge Enable
and Interrupt Detection Bits Definition" is inverted. When the Mux
Control field selects the GPIO signal function (Mux = ‘00’), the Polarity bit does not effect the output. Regardless of the state of the Mux
Control field and the Polarity bit, the state of the pin is always
reported without inversion in the GPIO input register.
10 GPIO Output Control Select
Every GPIO has two mechanisms to set a GPIO data output: Output
GPIO Bit located in the grouped GPIO Output Registers and the single GPIO output data bit located in bit 16 of this register.
This control bit determines the source of the GPIO output.
0 = Pin Control Bit[16] GPIO output data bit enabled
When this bit is zero the single GPIO output data bit is enabled.
(GPIO output data is R/W capable and the Grouped Output GPIO is
disabled (i.e., Read-Only).
1 = Grouped Output GPIO enable
When this bit is one the GPIO output data write is disabled (i.e.,
Read-Only) and the Grouped Output GPIO is enabled (i.e., R/W).
Note:
See description in Section 22.5.1, "Accessing GPIOs".
9 GPIO Direction
0 = Input
1 = Output
The GPIO Direction bit controls the buffer direction only when the
Mux Control field is ‘00’ selecting the pin signal function to be
GPIO. When the Mux Control field is greater than ‘00’ (i.e., a nonGPIO signal function is selected) the GPIO Direction bit has no
affect and the selected signal function logic directly controls the pin
direction.

Note:
See Table 22-3, "Edge Enable and Interrupt Detection

Note:
Since the GPIO input is always available, even when the
GPIO is not selected as the alternate function, the GPIO
interrupts may be used for detecting pin activity on alternate functions. The only exception to this is the analog
functions (e.g., ADC, DAC, Comparator inputs)
3:2 Power Gating Signals
The Power Gating Signals provide the chip Power Emulation
options. The pin will be tristated when the selected power well is off
(i.e., gated) as indicated.
The Emulated Power Well column defined in Pin Multiplexing tables
indicates the emulation options supported for each signal. The Signal Power Well column defines the buffer power supply per function.
Note:
Note that all GPIOs support Power Gating unless otherwise noted.

Note:
Only edge triggered interrupts can wake up the main ring oscillator. The GPIO must be enabled for edgetriggered interrupts and the GPIO interrupt must be enabled in the interrupt aggregator in order to wake up
the ring when the ring is shut down.
APPLICATION NOTE: All GPIO interrupt detection configurations default to '0000', which is low level interrupt.
Having interrupt detection enabled will un-gated the clock to the GPIO module whenever the
interrupt is active, which increases power consumption. Interrupt detection should be
disabled when not required to save power; this is especially true for pin interfaces (i.e., LPC).

PHYSICAL INTERFACE
23.11.2.1
Overview
The Physical Interface for the SMB controller core is configurable for up to 15 ports as defined below in SMBus Port
Selection.
Each of the 3 SMBus controllers can be connected to any of the ports defined in the table. The PORT SEL [3:0] bits in
each controller will appear the same (TABLE 23-1:). The default for each field is Fh, Reserved, which means that the
SMB controller is not connected to a port.
An SMB port should be connected to a single controller. An attempt to configure the PORT SEL [3:0] bits in one controller to a value already assigned to another controller may result in unexpected results.
The port signal-function names and pin numbers are defined in the Pin Configuration chapter. The SMBus port selection is made using the PORT SEL [3:0] bits in the Configuration Register as described in Ref [1] and in the subsections
that follow.
For SMBus port signal functions that are alternate functions of GPIO pins, the buffer type for these pins must be configured as open-drain outputs when the port is selected as defined in SMBus Port Selection. For more information
regarding the SMBus controller core see Section 2.2, “Physical Interface” in Ref[1].

Introduction
The Internal DMA Controller transfers data to/from the source from/to the destination. The firmware is responsible for
setting up each channel. Afterwards either the firmware or the hardware may perform the flow control. The hardware
flow control exists entirely inside the source device. Each transfer may be 1, 2, or 4 bytes in size, so long as the device
supports a transfer of that size. Every device must be on the internal 32-bit address space.

DMA Transfer
This is a complete DMA Transfer which is done after the Master Device
terminates the transfer, the Firmware Aborts the transfer or the DMA
reaches its transfer limit.
A DMA Transfer may consist of one or more data packets.
Data Packet
Each data packet may be composed of 1, 2, or 4 bytes. The size of the
data packet is limited by the max size supported by both the source and
the destination. Both source and destination will transfer the same number of bytes per packet.
Channel
The Channel is responsible for end-to-end (source-to-destination) Data
Packet delivery.
Device
A Device may refer to a Master or Slave connected to the DMA Channel.
Each DMA Channel may be assigned one or more devices.
Master Device
This is the master of the DMA, which determines when it is active.
The Firmware is the master while operating in Firmware Flow Control.
The Hardware is the master while operating in Hardware Flow Control.
The Master Device in Hardware Mode is selected by DMA Channel Control:Hardware Flow Control Device. It is the index of the Flow Control
Port.
Slave Device

Low Power Modes
The Internal DMA Controller may be put into a low power state by the chip’s Power, Clocks, and Reset (PCR) circuitry.
When the block is commanded to go to sleep it will place the DMA block into sleep mode only after all transactions on
the DMA have been completed. For Firmware Flow Controlled transactions, the DMA will wait until it hits its terminal
count and clears the Go control bit. For Hardware Flow Control, the DMA will go to sleep after either the terminal count
is hit, or the Master device flags the terminate signal.
24.9
Description
The MEC140X/1X features a multi-channel DMA controller. The DMA controller can autonomously move data from/to
any DMA capable master device to/from any populated memory location. This mechanism allows hardware IP blocks
to transfer large amounts of data into or out of memory without EC intervention.
The DMA has the following characteristics:
• Data is only moved 1 Data Packet at a time
• Data only moves between devices on the accessible via the internal 32-bit address space
• Each DMA Channel may be configured to communicate with any DMA capable device on the 32-bit internal
address space. Each device has been assigned a device number. See Section 24.5.3, "DMA Interface," on
page 349.
The controller will accesses SRAM buffers only with incrementing addresses (that is, it cannot start at the top of a buffer,
nor does it handle circular buffers automatically). The controller does not handle chaining (that is, automatically starting
a new DMA transfer when one finishes).
A DMA Channel can optionally generate a CRC-32 on the data transfered by the Channel.
24.9.1
CONFIGURATION
The DMA Controller is enabled via the ACTIVATE bit in DMA Main Control Register register.
Each DMA Channel must also be individually enabled via the CHANNEL_ACTIVATE bit in the DMA Channel N Activate
Register to be operational.
Before starting a DMA transaction on a DMA Channel the host must assign a DMA Master to the channel via bits[15:9]
HARDWARE_FLOW_CONTROL_DEVICE. The host must not configure two different channels to the same DMA Master at the same time.
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 351
MEC140X/1X
Data will be transfered between the DMA Master, starting at the programmed DEVICE_ADDRESS, and the targeted
memory location, starting at the MEMORY_START_ADDRESS. The address for either the DMA Master or the targeted
memory location may remain static or it may increment. To enable the DMA Master to increment its address set the
INCREMENT_DEVICE_ADDRESS bit. To enable the targeted memory location to increment its addresses set the
INCREMENT_MEMORY_ADDRESS. The DMA transfer will continue as long as the target memory address being
accessed is less than the MEMORY_END_ADDRESS. If the DMA Controller detects that the memory location it is
attempting to access on the Target is equal to the MEMORY_END_ADDRESS it will notify the DMA Master that the
transaction is done. Otherwise the Data will be transferred in packets. The size of the packet is determined by the
TRANSFER_SIZE.
24.9.2
OPERATION
The DMA Controller is designed to move data from one memory location to another.
24.9.2.1
Establishing a Connection
A DMA Master will initiate a DMA Transaction by requesting access to a channel. The DMA arbiter, which evaluates
each channel request using a basic round robin algorithm, will grant access to the DMA master. Once granted, the channel will hold the grant until it decides to release it, by notifying the DMA Controller that it is done.
Note:
24.9.2.2
If Firmware wants to prevent any other channels from being granted while it is active it can set the
LOCK_CHANNEL bit.
Initiating a Transfer
Once a connection is established the DMA Master will issue a DMA request to start a DMA transfer.
Firmware can initiate a transaction by setting the TRANSFER_GO bit. The DMA transfer will remain active until either
the Master issues a Terminate or the DMA Controller signals that the transfer is DONE. Firmware may terminate a transaction by setting the TRANSFER_ABORT bit.
Note:
Before initiating a DMA transaction via firmware the hardware flow control must be disabled via the DISABLE_HARDWARE_FLOW_CONTROL bit.
Data may be moved from the DMA Master to the targeted Memory address or from the targeted Memory Address to the
DMA Master. The direction of the transfer is determined by the TRANSFER_DIRECTION bit.
Once a transaction has been initiated firmware can use the STATUS_DONE bit to determine when the transaction is
completed. This status bit is routed to the interrupt interface. In the same register there are additional status bits that
indicate if the transaction completed successfully or with errors. This bits are OR’d together with the STATUS_DONE
bit to generate the interrupt event. Each status be may be individually enabled/disabled from generating this event.
24.9.2.3
CRC Generation
A CRC generator can be attached to a DMA channel in order to generate a CRC on the data as it is transfered from the
source to the destination. The CRC used is the CRC-32 algorithm used in IEEE 802.3 and many other protocols, using
the polynomial x32 + x26 + x23 + x22 + x16 + x12 + x11 + x10 + x8 + x7 + x5 + x4 + x2 + x + 1. The CRC generation takes
place in parallel with the data transfer; enabling CRC will not increase the time to complete a DMA transaction. The CRC
generator has the optional ability to automatically transfer the generated CRC to the destination after the data transfer
has completed.
CRC generation is subject to a number of restrictions:
• The CRC is only generated on channels that have the CRC hardware. See Table 24-6, "DMA Channel N Register
Summary" for a definition of which channels have the ability to generate a CRC
• The DMA transfer must be 32-bits
• If CRC is enabled, DMA interrupts are inhibited until the CRC is completed, including the optional post-transfer
copy of it is enabled
• The CRC must be initialized by firmware. The value FFFFFFFFh must be written to the Data Register in order to
initialize the generator for the standard CRC-32-IEEE algorithm
24.9.3
DMA REGISTERS
The DMA Controller consists of a single Main Block of registers that applies to all channels and channel specific registers. Table 24-4, "DMA Main Register Summary" lists the registers in the Main Block and Table 24-6, "DMA Channel N
Register Summary" lists the registers in each channel.

26.10 Description
The Tachometer block monitors tachometer output signals (also referred to as TACH signals) or locked rotor signals
generated by various types of fans. These signals can be used to determine the speed of the attached fan. This block
is designed to monitor fans at fan speeds from 100 RPMs to 30,000 RPMs.
Typically, these are DC brushless fans that generate (with each revolution) a 50% duty cycle, two-period square wave,
as shown in FIGURE 26-2: below.

DS00001956D-page 369
MEC140X/1X
FIGURE 26-2:
FAN GENERATED 50%DUTY CYCLE WAVEFORM
one revolution
In typical systems, the fans are powered by the main power supply. Firmware may disable this block when it detects that
the main power rail has been turned off by either clearing the <enable> TACH_ENABLE bit or putting the block to sleep
via the supported Low Power Mode interface (see Low Power Modes).
26.10.1
MODES OF OPERATION
The Tachometer block supports two modes of operation. The mode of operation is selected via the TACH_READING_MODE_SELECT bit.
26.10.1.1
Free Running Counter
In Mode 0, the Tachometer block uses the TACHx input as the clock source for the internal TACH pulse counter (see
TACHX_COUNTER). The counter is incremented when it detects a rising edge on the TACH input. In this mode, the
firmware may periodically poll the TACHX_COUNTER field to determine the average speed over a period of time. The
firmware must store the previous reading and the current reading to compute the number of pulses detected over a
period of time. In this mode, the counter continuously increments until it reaches FFFFh. It then wraps back to 0000h
and continues counting. The firmware must ensure that the sample rate is greater than the time it takes for the counter
to wrap back to the starting point.
Note:
26.10.1.2
Tach interrupts should be disabled in Mode 0.
Mode 1 -- Number of Clock Pulses per Revolution
In Mode 1, the Tachometer block uses its 100kHz_Clk clock input to measure the programmable number of TACHx
pulses. In this mode, the internal TACH pulse counter (TACHX_COUNTER) returns the value in number of 100kHz_Clk
pulses per programmed number of TACH_EDGES. For fans that generate two square waves per revolution, these bits
should be configured to five edges.
When the number of edges is detected, the counter is latched and the COUNT_READY_STATUS bit is asserted. If the
COUNT_READY_INT_EN bit is set a TACH interrupt event will be generated.
26.10.2
OUT-OF-LIMIT EVENTS
The Tachometer Block has a pair of limit registers that may be configured to generate an event if the Tachometer indicates that the fan is operating too slow or too fast. If the TACHX_COUNTER exceeds one of the programmed limits, the
TACHx High Limit Register and the TACHx Low Limit Register, the bit TACH_OUT_OF_LIMIT_STATUS will be set. If
the TACH_OUT_OF_LIMIT_STATUS bit is set, the Tachometer block will generate an interrupt event.
26.11 EC-Only Registers
The registers listed in the EC-Only Register Summary table are for a single instance of the Tachometer. The addresses
of each register listed in this table are defined as a relative offset to the host “Base Address” defined in the EC-Only
Register Base Address Table.

If the counter is free-running (Mode 0), the internal Tach counter
increments (if enabled) on transitions of the raw TACHx input signal
and is latched into this field every time it is incremented. The act of
reading this field will not reset the counter, which rolls over to 0000h
after FFFFh. The firmware will compute the delta between the current
count reading and the previous count reading, to determine the number of pulses detected over a programmed period.
If the counter is gated by the TACHx input and clocked by 100kHz_Clk (Mode 1), the internal counter will be latched into the reading register when the programmed number of edges is detected or when the
counter reaches FFFFh. The internal counter is reset to zero after it
is copied into this register.
Note:
In Mode 1, a counter value of FFFFh means that the
Tachometer logic did not detect the programmed number
of edges in 655ms. A stuck fan can be detected by setting
the TACHx High Limit Register to a number less than
FFFFh. If the internal counter then reaches FFFFh, the
reading register will be set to FFFFh and an out-of-limit
interrupt can be sent to the EC.

that may be polled by the embedded controller.
1= TACHx Input is high

0 TACH_OUT_OF_LIMIT_STATUS
This bit is set when the Tach Count value is greater than the high
limit or less than the low limit. It is cleared when written with a ’1’. To
disable this status event set the limits to their extreme values. If
TACH_OUT_OF_LIMIT_ENABLE in the TACHx Control Register is
set to 1’, this status bit will assert the Tach Interrupt signal.
Note:
Note:
1=Tach is outside of limits
0=Tach is within limits
Some fans offer a Locked Rotor output pin that generates a level event if a locked rotor is detected. This bit
may be used in combination with the Tach pin status bit to detect a locked rotor signal event from a fan.
Tach Input may come up as active for Locked Rotor events. This would not cause an interrupt event because
the pin would not toggle. Firmware must read the status events as part of the initialization process, if polling
is not implemented.

Introduction
This block generates a PWM output that can be used to control 4-wire fans, blinking LEDs, and other similar devices.
Each PWM can generate an arbitrary duty cycle output at frequencies from less than 0.1 Hz to 24 MHz. The PWM controller can also used to generate the PROCHOT output and Speaker output.
The PWMx Counter ON Time registers and PWMx Counter OFF Time registers determine the operation of the
PWM_OUTPUT signals. See Section 27.11.1, "PWMx Counter ON Time Register," on page 380 and Section 27.11.2,
"PWMx Counter OFF Time Register," on page 380 for a description of the PWM_OUTPUT signals.

In FIGURE 27-2:, the 48 MHz Ring Oscillator is represented as CLOCK_HIGH and 100kHz_Clk is represented as CLOCK_LOW.
The PWM clock source to the PWM Down Counter, used to generate a duty cycle and frequency on the PWM, is determined through the Clock select[1] and Clock Pre-Divider[6:3] bits in the PWMx Configuration Register register.
The PWMx Counter ON/OFF Time registers determine both the frequency and duty cycle of the signal generated on
PWM_OUTPUT as described below.
The PWM frequency is determined by the selected clock source and the total on and off time programmed in the PWMx
Counter ON Time Register and PWMx Counter OFF Time Register registers. The frequency is the time it takes (at that
clock rate) to count down to 0 from the total on and off time.
The PWM duty cycle is determined by the relative values programmed in the PWMx Counter ON Time Register and
PWMx Counter OFF Time Register registers.
The PWM Frequency Equation and PWM Duty Cycle Equation are shown below.

BLINKING/BREATHING PWM
28.1
Introduction
LEDs are used in computer applications to communicate internal state information to a user through a minimal interface.
Typical applications will cause an LED to blink at different rates to convey different state information. For example, an
LED could be full on, full off, blinking at a rate of once a second, or blinking at a rate of once every four seconds, in order
to communicate four different states.
As an alternative to blinking, an LED can “breathe”, that is, oscillate between a bright state and a dim state in a continuous, or apparently continuous manner. The rate of breathing, or the level of brightness at the extremes of the oscillation
period, can be used to convey state information to the user that may be more informative, or at least more novel, than
traditional blinking.
The blinking/breathing hardware is implemented using a PWM. The PWM can be driven either by the 48 MHz clock or
by a 32.768 KHz clock input. When driven by the 48 MHz clock, the PWM can be used as a standard 8-bit PWM in order
to control a fan. When used to drive blinking or breathing LEDs, the 32.768 KHz clock source is used.

PWM is configured to be fully off, the pin is low. If firmware
requires the Blinking/Breathing PWM to be active low, the Polarity
bit in the GPIO Pin Control Register associated with the PWM can
be set to 1, which inverts the output polarity.

Description
28.8.1
BREATHING
If an LED blinks rapidly enough, the eye will interpret the light as reduced brightness, rather than a blinking pattern.
Therefore, if the blinking period is short enough, modifying the duty cycle will set the apparent brightness, rather than a
blinking rate. At a blinking rate of 128Hz or greater, almost all people will perceive a continuous light source rather than
an intermittent pattern.
Because making an LED appear to breathe is an aesthetic effect, the breathing mechanism must be adjustable or customers may find the breathing effect unattractive. There are several variables that can affect breathing appearance, as
described below.
The following figure illustrates some of the variables in breathing:
FIGURE 28-2:
BREATHING LED EXAMPLE
Full on
Max Duty Cycle
Min Duty Cycle
Full off
RISING RAMP TIME
FALLING RAMP TIME
The breathing range of and LED can range between full on and full off, or in a range that falls within the full-on/full-off
range, as shown in this figure. The ramp time can be different in different applications. For example, if the ramp time
was 1 second, the LED would appear to breathe quickly. A time of 2 seconds would make the LED appear to breathe
more leisurely.
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 385

The breathing pattern can be clipped, as shown in the following figure, so that the breathing effect appears to pause at
its maximum and minimum brightnesses:
FIGURE 28-3:
CLIPPING EXAMPLE

Max Duty Cycle
Min Duty Cycle

The clipping periods at the two extremes can be adjusted independently, so that for example an LED can appear to
breathe (with a short delay at maximum brightness) followed by a longer “resting” period (with a long delay at minimum
brightness).
The brightness can also be changed in a non-linear fashion, as shown in the following figure:

In this figure, the rise and fall curves are implemented in 4 linear segments and are the rise and fall periods are symmetric.
The breathing mode uses the 32.768 KHz clock for its time base.
28.8.2
BLINKING
When configured for blinking, a subset of the hardware used in breathing is used to implement the blinking function. The
PWM (an 8-bit accumulator plus an 8-bit duty cycle register) drives the LED directly. The Duty Cycle register is programmed directly by the user, and not modified further. The PWM accumulator is configured as a simple 8-bit up counter.
The counter uses the 32.768 KHz clock, and is pre-scaled by the Delay counter, to slow the PWM down from the 128Hz
provided by directly running the PWM on the 32.768 KHz clock.
With the pre-scaler, the blink rate of the LED could be as fast as 128Hz (which, because it is blinking faster than the eye
can distinguish, would appear as a continuous level) to 0.03125Hz (that is, with a period of 7.8ms to 32 seconds). Any
duty cycle from 0% (0h) to 100% (FFh) can be configured, with an 8-bit precision. An LED with a duty cycle value of 0h
will be fully off, while an LED with a duty cycle value of FFh will be fully on.
In Blinking mode the PWM counter is always in 8-bit mode.

PWM WDT
When the PWM is configured as a general-purpose PWM (in the Blinking configuration with the 48 MHz clock), the PWM
includes a Watch Dog Timer (WDT). The WDT consists of an internal 8-bit counter and an 8-bit reload value (the field
WDTLD in LED Configuration Register register). The internal counter is loaded with the reset value of WDTLD (14h, or
4 seconds) on system nSYSRST and loaded with the contents of WDTLD whenever either the LED Configuration Register register is written or the MIN byte in the LED Limits Register register is written (the MIN byte controls the duty cycle
of the PWM).
DS00001956D-page 388
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
MEC140X/1X
Whenever the internal counter is non-zero, it is decremented by 1 for every tick of the 5 Hz clock. If the counter decrements from 1 to 0, a WDT Terminal Count causes an interrupt to be generated and reset sets the CONTROL bit in the
LED Configuration Register to 3h, which forces the PWM to be full on. No other PWM registers or fields are affected.
If the 5 Hz clock halts, the watchdog timer stops decrementing but retains its value, provided the device continues to be
powered. When the 5 Hz clock restarts, the watchdog counter will continue decrementing where it left off.
Setting the WDTLD bits to 0 disables the PWM WDT. Other sample values for WDTLD are:
01h = 200 ms
02h = 400 ms
03h = 600 ms
04h = 800 ms
…
14h = 4seconds
FFh = 51 seconds
28.9
Implementation
In addition to the registers described in Section 28.10, "EC-Only Registers", the PWM is implemented using a number
of components that are interconnected differently when configured for breathing operation and when configured for
blinking/PWM operation.
28.9.1
BREATHING CONFIGURATION
The PSIZE parameter can configure the PWM to one of three modes: 8-bit, 7-bit and 6-bit. The PERIOD CTR counts
ticks of its input clock. In 8-bit mode, it counts from 0 to 255 (that is, 256 steps), then repeats continuously. In this mode,
a full cycle takes 7.8ms (128Hz). In 7-bit mode it counts from 0 to 127 (128 steps), and a full cycle takes 3.9ms (256Hz).
In 6-bit mode it counts from 0 to 63 (64 steps) and a full cycle takes 1.95ms (512Hz).
The output of the LED circuit is asserted whenever the PERIOD CTR is less than the contents of the DUTY CYCLE
register. The appearance of breathing is created by modifying the contents of the DUTY CYCLE register in a continuous
manner. When the LED control is off the internal counters and registers are all reset to 0 (i.e. after a write setting the
RESET bit in the LED Configuration Register Register.) Once enabled, the DUTY CYCLE register is increased by an
amount determined by the LED_STEP register and at a rate determined by the DELAY counter. Once the duty cycle
reaches its maximum value (determined by the field MAX), the duty cycle is held constant for a period determined by
the field HD. Once the hold time is complete, the DUTY CYCLE register is decreased, again by an amount determined
by the LED_STEP register and at a rate determined by the DELAY counter. When the duty cycle then falls at or below
the minimum value (determined by the field MIN), the duty cycle is held constant for a period determined by the field
HD. Once the hold time is complete, the cycle repeats, with the duty cycle oscillating between MIN and MAX.
The rising and falling ramp times as shown in on page 385 can be either symmetric or asymmetric depending on the
setting of the SYMMETRY bit in the LED Configuration Register Register. In Symmetric mode the rising and falling ramp
rates have mirror symmetry; both rising and falling ramp rates use the same (all) 8 segments fields in each of the following registers (see TABLE 28-7:): the LED Update Stepsize Register register and the LED Update Interval Register
register. In Asymmetric mode the rising ramp rate uses 4 of the 8 segments fields and the falling ramp rate uses the
remaining 4 of the 8 segments fields (see TABLE 28-7:).
The parameters MIN, MAX, HD, LD and the 8 fields in LED_STEP and LED_INT determine the brightness range of the
LED and the rate at which its brightness changes. See the descriptions of the fields in Section 28.10, "EC-Only Registers", as well as the examples in Section 28.9.3, "Breathing Examples" for information on how to set these fields.

Asymmetric Mode Register Fields Utilized
In Asymmetric Mode the Segment_Index[2:0] is the bit concatenation of following: Segment_Index[2] =
(FALLING RAMP TIME in Figure 28-3, "Clipping Example") and Segment_Index[1:0] = Duty Cycle Bits[7:6].
BLINKING CONFIGURATION
The Delay counter and the PWM counter are the same as in the breathing configuration, except in this configuration
they are connected differently. The Delay counter is clocked on either the 32.768 KHz clock or the 48 MHz clock, rather
than the output of the PWM. The PWM counter is clocked by the zero output of the Delay counter, which functions as a
prescalar for the input clocks to the PWM. The Delay counter is reloaded from the LD field of the LED_DELAY register.
When the LD field is 0 the input clock is passed directly to the PWM counter without prescaling. In Blinking/PWM mode
the PWM counter is always 8-bit, and the PSIZE parameter has no effect.
DS00001956D-page 390
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
MEC140X/1X
The frequency of the PWM pulse waveform is determined by the formula:
f clock
f PWM = ----------------------------------------- 256   LD + 1  
where fPWM is the frequency of the PWM, fclock is the frequency of the input clock (32.768 KHz clock or 48 MHz clock)
and LD is the contents of the LD field.
Note:
At a duty cycle value of 00h (in the MIN register), the LED output is fully off. At a duty cycle value of 255h,
the LED output is fully on. Alternatively, In order to force the LED to be fully on, firmware can set the CONTROL field of the Configuration register to 3 (always on).
The other registers in the block do not affect the PWM or the LED output in Blinking/PWM mode.

Linear LED brightness change
In this example, the brightness of the LED increases and diminishes in a linear fashion. The entire cycle takes 5 seconds. The rise time and fall time are 1.6 seconds, with a hold time at maximum brightness of 200ms and a hold time at
minimum brightness of 1.6 seconds. The LED brightness varies between full off and full on. The PWM size is set to 8bit, so the time unit for adjusting the PWM is approximately 8ms. The registers are configured as follows:

Non-linear LED brightness change
In this example, the brightness of the LED increases and diminishes in a non-linear fashion. The brightness forms a
curve that is approximated by four piece wise-linear line segments. The entire cycle takes about 2.8 seconds. The rise
time and fall time are about 1 second, with a hold time at maximum brightness of 320ms and a hold time at minimum
brightness of 400ms. The LED brightness varies between full off and full on. The PWM size is set to 7-bit, so the time
unit for adjusting the PWM is approximately 4ms. The registers are configured as follows:

LED Update Interval Register
In the following register definitions, a “PWM period” is defined by time the PWM counter goes from 000h to its maximum
value (FFh in 8-bit mode, FEh in 7-bit mode and FCh in 6-bit mode, as defined by the PSCALE field in register
LED_CFG). The end of a PWM period occurs when the PWM counter wraps from its maximum value to 0.
The registers in this block can be written 32-bits, 16-bits or 8-bits at a time. Writes to LED Configuration Register take
effect immediately. Writes to LED Limits Register are held in a holding register and only take effect only at the end of a
PWM period. The update takes place at the end of every period, even if only one byte of the register was updated. This
means that in blink/PWM mode, software can change the duty cycle with a single 8-bit write to the MIN field in the
LED_LIMIT register. Writes to LED Delay Register, LED Update Stepsize Register and LED Update Interval Register
also go initially into a holding register. The holding registers are copied to the operating registers at the end of a PWM
period only if the Enable Update bit in the LED Configuration Register is set to 1. If LED_CFG is 0, data in the holding
registers is retained but not copied to the operating registers when the PWM period expires. To change an LED breathing configuration, software should write these three registers with the desired values and then set LED_CFG to 1. This
mechanism ensures that all parameters affecting LED breathing will be updated consistently, even if the registers are
only written 8 bits at a time.

be set to their required values, then the SYNCHRONIZE bits should
all be cleared. If the all LEDs are set for the same blink period, they

PS/2 INTERFACE
29.1
Introduction
The PS/2 Interface may be used to communicate with a PS/2 keyboard or a PS/2 mouse. The physical interface provides the clock and data signaling for PS/2 data transfers. The PS/2 Controllers are directly controlled by the EC. The
hardware implementation eliminates the need to bit bang I/O ports to generate PS/2 traffic, however bit banging is available via the associated GPIO pins.

Low Power Modes
The PS/2 Interface may be put into a low power state by the chip’s Power, Clocks, and Reset (PCR) circuitry.
The PS2 interface will only sleep while the PS2 is disabled or in Rx mode with no traffic on the bus.
29.10 Description
Each EC PS/2 serial channels use a synchronous serial protocol to communicate with the auxiliary device. Each PS/2
channel has Clock and Data signal lines. The signal lines are bi-directional and employ open drain outputs capable of
sinking 12m, as required by the PS/2 specification. A pull-up resistor, typically 10K, is connected to both lines. This
allows either the EC PS/2 logic or the auxiliary device to drive the lines. Regardless of the drive source, the auxiliary
device always provides the clock for transmit and receive operations. The serial packet is made up of eleven bits, listed
in the order they appear on the data line: start bit, eight data bits (least significant bit first), odd parity, and stop bit. Each
bit cell is from 60S to 100S long.
All PS/2 Serial Channel signals (PS2_CLK and PS2_DAT) are driven by open drain drivers which can be pulled to VTR
or the main power rail (+3.3V nominal) through 10K-ohm resistors.
The PS/2 controller supports a PS/2 Wake Interface that can wake the EC from the IDLE or SLEEP states. The Wake
Interface can generate wake interrupts without a clock. The PS/2 Wake Interface is only active when the peripheral
device and external pull-up resisters are powered by the VTR supply.
There are no special precautions to be taken to prevent back drive of a PS/2 peripheral powered by the main power well
when the power well is off, as long as the external 10K pull-up resistor is tied to the same power source as the peripheral.

29.12 PS/2 Port Physical Layer Byte Transmission Protocol
The PS/2 physical layer transfers a byte of data via an eleven bit serial stream as shown in TABLE 29-2:. A logic 1 is
sent at an active high level. Data sent from a Keyboard or mouse device to the host is read on the falling edge of the
clock signal. The Keyboard or mouse device always generates the clock signal. The Host may inhibit communication
by pulling the Clock line low. The Clock line must be continuously high for at least 50 microseconds before the Keyboard
or mouse device can begin to transmit its data. See Table 29-3, "PS/2 Port Physical Layer Bus States".

29.13 Controlling PS/2 Transactions
PS/2 transfers are controlled by fields in the PS2 Control Register.
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 403
MEC140X/1X
The interface is enabled by the PS2_EN bit. Transfers are enabled when PS2_EN is ‘1’ and disabled when PS2_EN is
‘0’. If the PS2_EN bit is cleared to ‘0’ while a transfer is in progress but prior to the leading edge (falling edge) of the
10th (parity bit) clock edge, the receive data is discarded (RDATA_RDY remains low). If the PS2_EN bit is cleared following the leading edge of the 10th clock signal, then the receive data is saved in the Receive Register (RDATA_RDY
goes high) assuming no parity error.
The direction of a PS/2 transfer is controlled by the PS2_T/R bit.
29.13.1
RECEIVE
If PS2_T/R is ‘0’ while the PS2 Interface is enabled, the interface is configured to receive data. If while PS2_T/R is ‘0’
RDATA_RDY is ‘0’, the channel’s PS2_CLK and PS2_DAT will float waiting for the external PS/2 device to signal the
start of a transmission. If RDATA_RDY is ‘1’, the channel’s PS2_DAT line will float but its PS2_CLK line will be held low,
holding off the peripheral, until the Receive Register is read.
The peripheral initiates a reception by sending a start bit followed by the data bits). After a successful reception, data
are placed in the PS2 Receive Buffer Register, the RDATA_RDY bit in the PS2 Status Register is set and the PS2_CLK
line is forced low. Further receive transfers are inhibited until the EC reads the data in the PS2 Receive Buffer Register.
RDATA_RDY is cleared and the PS2_CLK line is tri-stated following a read of the PS2 Receive Buffer Register.
The Receive Buffer Register is initialized to FFh after a read or after a Time-out has occurred.
29.13.2
TRANSMIT
If PS2_T/R is ‘1’ while the PS2 Interface is enabled, the interface is configured to transmit data. When the PS2_T/R bit
is written to ‘1’ while the state machine is idle, the channel prepares for a transmission: the interface will drive the PS2_CLK line low and then float the PS2_DAT line, holding this state until a write occurs to the Transmit Register or until the
PS2_T/R bit is cleared. A transmission is started by writing the PS2 Transmit Buffer Register. Writes to the Transmit
Buffer Register are blocked when PS2_EN is ‘0’, PS2_T/R is ‘0’ or when the transmit state machine is active (the
XMIT_IDLE bit in the PS/2 Status Register is ‘0’). The transmission of data will not start if there is valid data in the
Receive Data Register (when the status bit RDATA_RDY is ‘1’). When a transmission is started, the transmission state
machine becomes active (the XMIT_IDLE bit is set to ‘1’ by hardware), the PS2_DAT line is driven low and within 80ns
the PS2_CLK line floats (externally pulled high by the pull-up resistor).
The transmission terminates either on the 11th clock edge of the transmission or if a Transmit Time-Out error condition
occurs. When the transmission terminates, the PS2_T/R bit is cleared to ‘0’and the state machine becomes idle, setting
XMIT_IDLE to ‘1’.
The PS2_T/R bit must be written to a ‘1’ before initiating another transmission to the remote device. If the PS2_T/R bit
is set to ‘1’ while the channel is actively receiving data (that is, while the status bit RDATA_RDYis ‘1’) prior to the leading
edge of the 10th (parity bit) clock edge, the receive data is discarded. If the bit is set after the 10th edge, the receive
data is saved in the Receive Register.

exceeds 300μs.
• If the time from the first bit (start) to the 10th bit (parity)
exceeds 2ms.
• On a receive parity error along with the Parity Error (PE) bit.

Overview
The Keyboard Matrix Scan Interface block provides a register interface to the EC to directly scan an external keyboard
matrix of size up to 18x8.
The maximum configuration of the Keyboard Matrix Scan Interface is 18 outputs by 8 inputs. For a smaller matrix size,
firmware should configure unused KSO pins as GPIOs or another alternate function, and it should mask out unused
KSIs and associated interrupts.

During scanning the firmware sequentially drives low one of the rows (KSO[17:0]) and then reads the column data line
(KSI[7:0]). A key press is detected as a zero in the corresponding position in the matrix. Keys that are pressed are
debounced by firmware. Once confirmed, the corresponding keycode is loaded into host data read buffer in the 8042
Host Interface module. Firmware may need to buffer keycodes in memory in case this interface is stalled or the host
requests a Resend.
30.10.1
INITIALIZATION OF KSO PINS
If the Keyboard Scan Interface is not configured for PREDRIVE Mode, KSO pins should be configured as open-drain
outputs. Internal or external pull-ups should be used so that the GPIO functions that share the pins do not have a floating
input when the KSO pins are tri-stated.
If the Keyboard Scan Interface is configured for PREDRIVE Mode, KSO pins must be configured as push-pull outputs.
Internal or external pull-ups should be used to protect the GPIO inputs associated with the KSO pins from floating inputs.
30.10.2
PREDRIVE MODE
There is an optional Predrive Mode that can be enabled to actively drive the KSO pins high before switching to opendrain operation. The PREDRIVE ENABLE bit in the Keyscan Extended Control Register is used to enable the PREDRIVE option. Timing for the Predive mode is shown in Section 43.16, Keyboard Scan Matrix Timing.

30.10.3
INTERRUPT GENERATION
To support interrupt-based processing, an interrupt can optionally be generated on the high-to-low transition on any of
the KSI inputs. A running clock is not required to generate interrupts.
30.10.3.1
Runtime interrupt
KSC_INT is the block’s runtime active-high level interrupt. It is connected to the interrupt interface of the Interrupt Aggregator, which then relays interrupts to the EC.
Associated with each KSI input is a status register bit and an interrupt enable register bit. A status bit is set when the
associated KSI input goes from high to low. If the interrupt enable bit for that input is set, an interrupt is generated. An
Interrupt is de-asserted when the status bit and/or interrupt enable bit is clear. A status bit cleared when written to a ‘1’.
Interrupts from individual KSIs are logically ORed together to drive the KSC_INT output port. Once asserted, an interrupt
is not asserted again until either all KSI[7:0] inputs have returned high or the has changed.
30.10.3.2
Wake-up interrupt
KSC_INT_WAKE is the block’s wakeup interrupt. It is routed to the Interrupt Aggregator.
During sleep mode, i.e., when the bus clock is stopped, a high-to-low transition on any KSI whose interrupt enable bit
is set causes the KSC_INT_WAKE to be asserted. Also set is the associated status bit in the EC Clock Required 2 Status
Register (EC_CLK_REQ2_STS). KSC_WAKEUP_INT remains active until the bus clock is started.
The aforementioned transition on KSI also sets the corresponding status bit in the KSI STATUS Register. If enabled, a
runtime interrupt is also asserted on KSC_INT when the bus clock resumes running.
30.10.4
WAKE PROGRAMMING
Using the Keyboard Scan Interface to ‘wake’ the MEC140X/1X can be accomplished using either the Keyboard Scan
Interface wake interrupt, or using the wake capabilities of the GPIO Interface pins that are multiplexed with the Keyboard
Scan Interface pins. Enabling the Keyboard Scan Interface wake interrupt requires only a single interrupt enable access
and is recommended over using the GPIO Interface for this purpose.

Low Power Modes
The BC-Link Master Interface automatically enters a low power mode whenever it is not active (that is, whenever the

BC-LINK MASTER READ OPERATION
The BC-Link Read protocol requires two reads of the BC-Link Data Register. The two reads drive a two state-state
machine: the two states are Read#1 and Read#2. The Read#1 of the Data Register starts the read protocol on the BCLink pins and sets the BUSY bit in the BC-Link Status Register. The contents of the data read during Read#1 by the EC
is stale and is not to be used. After the BUSY bit in the BC-Link Status Register autonomously clears to ‘0’, the Read#2
of the Data Register transfers the data read from the peripheral/BC-Link companion chip to the EC.

Software starts by checking the status of the BUSY bit in the Status Register. If the BUSY bit is ‘0’, proceed. If
BUSY is ‘1’, firmware must wait until it is ‘0’.
Software writes the address of the register to be read into the BC-Link Address Register.
Software then reads the Data Register. This read returns random data. The read activates the BC-Link Master
state machine to transmit the read request packet to the BC-Link companion. When the transfer initiates, the
hardware sets the BUSY bit to a ‘1’.
The BC-Link Companion reads the selected register and transmits the read response packet to the BC-Link Master. The Companion will ignore the read request if there is a CRC error; this will cause the Master state machine
to time-out and issue a BC_ERR Interrupt.
The Master state machine loads the Data Register, issues a BUSY Bit Clear interrupt and clears the BUSY bit to
‘0’.
Software, after either receiving the Bit Clear interrupt, or polling the BUSY bit until it is ‘0’, checks the BC_ERR
bit in the Status Register.
Software can now read the Data Register which contains the valid data if there was no BC Bus error.
If a Bus Error occurs, firmware must issue a soft reset by setting the RESET bit in the Status Register to ‘1’.
The read can re-tried once BUSY is cleared.

Note:
Steps 3 thorough 7 should be completed as a contiguous sequence. If not the interface could be presenting
incorrect data when software thinks it is accessing a valid register read.
31.10.2
BC-LINK MASTER WRITE OPERATION
1.
Software starts by checking the status of the BUSY bit in the BC-Link Status Register. If the BUSY bit is ‘0’, proceed. If BUSY is ‘1’, firmware must wait until it is ‘0’.
2. Software writes the address of the register to be written into the BC-Link Address Register.
3. Software writes the data to be written into the addressed register in to the BC-Link Data Register.
4. The write to the Data Register starts the BC_Link write operation. The Master state machine sets the BUSY bit.
5. The BC-Link Master Interface transmits the write request packet.
6. When the write request packet is received by the BC-Link companion, the CRC is checked and data is written to
the addressed companion register.
7. The companion sends an ACK if the write is completed. A time-out will occur approximately 16 BC-Link clocks
after the packet is sent by the Master state machine. If a time-out occurs, the state machine will set the BC_ERR
bit in the Status Register to ‘1’ approximately 48 clocks later and then clear the BUSY bit.
8. The Master state machine issues the Bit Clear interrupt and clears the BUSY bit after receiving the ACK from the
Companion
9. If a Bus Error occurs, firmware must issue a soft reset by setting the RESET bit in the Status Register to ‘1’.
10. The write can re-tried once BUSY is cleared.\

The firmware executing on the embedded controller writes to the Debug Data Register to initiate a transfer cycle (). At
first, data from the Debug Data Register is shifted into the LSB. Afterwards, it is transmitted at the rate of one byte per
transfer cycle.
Data is transferred in one direction only from the Debug Data Register to the external interface. The data is shifted out
at the clock edge. The clock edge is selected by the EDGE_SEL bit in the Debug Control Register. After being shifted
out, valid data is guaranteed at the opposite edge of the TFDP_CLK. For example, when the EDGE_SEL bit is ‘0’
(default), valid data is provided at the falling edge of TFDP_CLK. The Setup Time (to the falling edge of TFDP_CLK) is
10 ns, minimum. The Hold Time is 1 ns, minimum.
When the Serial Debug Port is inactive, the TFDP_CLK and TFDP_DAT outputs are ‘1.’ The EC Bus Clock clock input
is the transfer clock.

Port 80 BIOS Debug Port BLOCK DIAGRAM
The Port 80 BIOS Debug Port consists of a 32-bit wide x 16 deep FIFO and a 24-bit free running timer. Host and EC
access to the Port 80 device is through a set of registers. The Host can write the FIFO via the Runtime Registers and
the EC can read the FIFO can control the device via the EC-Only Registers.
Writes to the Host Data Register are concatenated with the 24-bit timestamp and written to the FIFO. Reads of the
Host Data Register return zero. If writes to the Host Data Register overrun the FIFO, the oldest data are discarded and
the OVERRUN status bit in the Status Register is asserted.
Only the EC can read data from the FIFO, using the EC Data Register. The use of this data is determined by EC Firmware alone.
33.10 Configuration Registers
The registers listed in the Configuration Register Summary table are for a single instance of the Port 80 BIOS Debug
Port. The addresses of each register listed in this table are defined as a relative offset to the host “Base Address”
defined in the Configuration Register Base Address Table.

This bit disables the clock switcher logic.
0 = If the device is configured to operate on the external singleended 32.768 KHz clock source and the clock switcher logic detects
that the external clock is turned off, it will automatically switch to the
internal 32k Hz clock source. It will remain operating on the internal

37.8
General Description
The VBAT-Powered Control Interface (VCI) is used to drive the VCI_OUT pin. The output pin can be controlled either
by VBAT-powered inputs, or by firmware when the VTR is active and the EC is powered and running. When the
VCI_OUT pin is controlled by hardware, either because VTR is inactive or because the VCI block is configured for hardware control, the VCI_OUT pin can be asserted by a number of inputs:
• When either the VCI_IN0# pin or the VCI_IN1# is asserted. By default, the VCI_IN# pins are active low, but firmware can switch each input individually to an active-high input. See Section 37.8.1, "Input Polarity".
• Wen the VCI_OVRD_IN pin is asserted. The VCI_OVRD_IN pin is always active high
• When the POWER_UP_EVENT from the RTC/Week Timer is asserted
Firmware can configure which of the hardware pin inputs contribute to the VCI_OUT output by setting the enable bits in
the VCI Input Enable Register. Even if the input pins are not configured to affect VCI_OUT, firmware can monitor their
current state through the status bits in the VCI Register. Firmware can also enable EC interrupts from the state of the
input pins.
Each of the VCI_IN# pins can be configured for additional properties.
• By default, each of the VCI_IN# pins have an input glitch filter. All glitch filters can be disabled by the FILTERS_BYPASS bit in the VCI Register
• Assertions of each of the VCI_IN# pins can optionally be latched, so hardware can maintain the assertion of a
VCI_IN# even after the physical pin is de-asserted, or so that firmware can determine which of the VCI_IN# inputs
contributed to VCI_OUT assertion. See the Latch Enable Register and the Latch Resets Register.
• Rising edges and falling edges on the VCI_IN# pins are latched, so firmware can detect transitions on the
VCI_IN# pins even if the transitions occurred while EC power was not available. See Section 37.8.2, "Edge Event
Status".
When VTR power is present and the EC is operating, firmware can figure the VCI_OUT pin to operate as a generalpurpose output pin. The VCI_OUT pin is firmware-controlled when the FW_EXT bit in the VCI Register is ‘1’. When firmware is controlling the output, the state of VCI_OUT is defined by the VCI_FW_CNTRL bit in the same register. When
VTR is not present (the VTRGD input is low), the VCI_OUT pin is also determined by the hardware circuit.

VCI_IN#
INPUT POLARITY
The VCI_IN# pins have an optional polarity inversion. The inversion takes place after any input filtering and before the
VCI_IN signals are latched in the VCI_IN# status bits in the VCI Register. Edge detection occurs before the polarity
inversion. The inversion is controlled by battery-backed configuration bits in the VCI Polarity Register.
37.8.2
EDGE EVENT STATUS
Each VCI_IN# input pin is associated with two register bits used to record edge transitions on the pins. The edge detection takes place after any input filtering, before polarity control and occurs even if the VCI_IN# input is not enabled as
part of the VCI_OUT logic (the corresponding control bit in the VCI Input Enable Register is ‘0’) or if the state of the
VCI_IN# input is not latched (the corresponding control bit in the Latch Enable Register is ‘0’). One bit is set whenever
there is a high-to-low transition on the VCI_IN# pin (the VCI Negedge Detect Register) and the other bit is set whenever
there is a low-to-high transition on the VCI_IN# pin (the VCI Posedge Detect Register).
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 453
MEC140X/1X
In order to minimize power drain on the VBAT circuit, the edge detection logic operates only when the input buffer for a
VCI_IN# pin is enabled. The input buffer is enabled either when the VCI_IN# pin is configured to determine the
VCI_OUT pin, as controlled by the VCI_IN[1:0]# field of the VCI Register, or when the input buffer is explicitly enabled
in the VCI Input Enable Register. When the pins are not enabled transitions on the pins are ignored.
The VCI_OVRD input also has an Input Buffer Enable and an Input Enable bit associated with VCI_OUT. However, the
VCI_OVRD input does not have any filtering, latching, input edge detection or polarity control.
37.8.3
VCI PIN MULTIPLEXING
Each of the VCI inputs, as well as VCI_OUT, are multiplexed with standard VTR-powered GPIOs. When VTR power is
off, the mux control is disabled and the pin always reverts to the VCI function. The VCI_IN# function should be disabled
in the VCI Input Enable Register for any pin that is intended to be used as a GPIO rather than a VCI_IN#, so that
VCI_OUT is not affected by the state of the pin. The VCI_OVRD_IN function should similarly be disabled if the pin is to
be used as a GPIO.
37.8.4
APPLICATION EXAMPLE
For this example, a mobile platform configures the VBAT-Powered Control Interface as follows:
•
•
•
•
VCI_IN0# is wired to a power button on the mobile platform
VCI_IN1# is wired to a power button on a dock
VCI_OVRD_IN is wired so that it is asserted whenever AC power is present
The VCI_OUT pin is connected to the regulator that sources the VTR power rail, the rail which powers the EC
The VBAT-Powered Control Interface can be used in a system as follows:
1.
In the initial condition, there is no power on either the VTR or VBAT power rails. All registers in the VBAT-Powered
Control Interface are in an indeterminate state
2. A coin cell battery is installed, causing a VBAT_POR. All registers in the interface are forced to their default conditions. The VCI_OUT pin is driven by hardware, input filters on the VCI_IN# pins are enabled, the VCI_IN# pins
are all active low, all VCI inputs are enabled and all edge and status latches are in their non-asserted state
3. The power button on VCI_IN0# is pushed. This causes VCI_OUT to be asserted, powering the VTR rail. This
causes the EC to boot and start executing EC firmware
4. The EC changes the VCI configuration so that firmware controls the VCI_OUT pin, and sets the output control
so that VCI_OUT is driven high. With this change, the power button can be released without removing the EC
power rail.
5. EC firmware re-configures the VCI logic so that the VCI_IN# input latches are enabled. This means that subsequent presses of the power button do not have to be held until EC firmware switches the VCI logic to firmware
control
6. During this phase the VCI_OUT pin is driven by the firmware-controlled state bit and the VCI input pins are
ignored. However, the EC can monitor the state of the pins, or generate inputs when their state changes
7. At some later point, EC firmware must enter a long-term power-down state.
- Firmware configures the Week Timer for a Sub-Week Alarm once every 8 hours. This will turn on the EC
power rail three times a day and enable the EC to perform low frequency housekeeping tasks even in its lowest-power state
- Firmware de-asserts VCI_OUT. This action kills power to the EC and automatically returns control of the
VCI_OUT pin to hardware.
- The EC will remain in its lowest-power state until a power pin is pushed, AC power is connected, or the SubWeek Alarm is active

Interrupt signal from ADC controller to EC for Repeated ADC conversion.
Low Power Modes
The ADC may be put into a low power state by the chip’s Power, Clocks, and Reset (PCR) circuitry.
The ADC is designed to conserve power when it is either sleeping or disabled. It is disabled via the Activate Bit and
sleeps when the ADC_SLEEP_EN signal is asserted. The sleeping state only controls clocking in the ADC and does
not power down the analog circuitry. For lowest power consumption, the ADC Activate bit must be set to ‘0.’

The MEC140X/1X features successive approximation Analog to Digital Converter with up to sixteen channels. The ADC
architecture features excellent linearity and converts analog signals to 10 bit words. Conversion takes less than 12
microseconds per 10-bit word. The sixteen channels are implemented with a single high speed ADC fed by a sixteen
input analog multiplexer. The multiplexer cycles through the sixteen voltage channels, starting with the lowest-numbered
channel and proceeding to the highest-number channel, selecting only those channels that are programmed to be
active.
The input range on the voltage channels spans from 0V to the external voltage reference. With an external voltage reference of 3.0V, this provides resolutions of 2.9mV. The accuracy of any voltage reading depends on the accuracy and
stability of the voltage reference input.
Note:
The ADC pins are 3.3V tolerant.
The ADC conversion cycle starts either when the Start_Single bit in the ADC to set to 1 or when the ADC Repeat Timer
counts down to 0. When the Start_Single is set to 1 the conversion cycle converts channels enabled by configuration
bits in the ADC Single Register. When the Repeat Timer counts down to 0 the conversion cycle converts channels
enabled by configuration bits in the ADC Repeat Register. When both the Start_Single bit and the Repeat Timer request
conversions the Start_Single conversion is completed first.
 2015 - 2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00001956D-page 463
MEC140X/1X
Conversions always start with the lowest-numbered enabled channel and proceed to the highest-numbered enabled
channel.
Note:
If software repeatedly sets Start_Single to 1 at a rate faster than the Repeat Timer count down interval, the
conversion cycle defined by the ADC Repeat Register will not be executed.
38.10.1
REPEAT MODE
• Repeat Mode will start a conversion cycle of all ADC channels enabled by bits Rpt_En[7:0] in the ADC Repeat
Register. The conversion cycle will begin after a delay determined by Start_Delay[15:0] in the ADC Delay Register.
• After all channels enabled by Rpt_En[7:0] are complete, Repeat_Done_Status will be set to 1. This status bit is
cleared when the next repeating conversion cycle begins to give a reflection of when the conversion is in progress.
• As long as Start_Repeat is 1 the ADC will repeatedly begin conversion cycles with a period defined by
Repeat_Delay[15:0].
• If the delay period expires and a conversion cycle is already in progress because Start_Single was written with a
1, the cycle in progress will complete, followed immediately by a conversion cycle using Rpt_En[7:0] to control the
channel conversions.
38.10.2
SINGLE MODE
• The Single Mode conversion cycle will begin without a delay. After all channels enabled by Single_En[7:0] are
complete, Single_Done_Status will be set to 1. When the next conversion cycle begins the bit is cleared.
• If Start_Single is written with a 1 while a conversion cycle is in progress because Start_Repeat is set, the conversion cycle will complete, followed immediately by a conversion cycle using Single_En[7:0] to control the channel
conversions.

Interrupts
The comparators do not have a dedicated interrupt output event. An interrupt can be generated by the GPIO which
shares the pin with the comparator output signal.
• GPIO124/CMP_VOUT0
• GPIO120/CMP_VOUT1
The GPIO interrupt is very configurable, thereby allowing CMP_VOUTx signal to generate an event when the
CMP_VINx input is greater than the CMP_VREFx input or when it is less than the CMP_VREFx input. See the definition
of Bits[7:4] of the Pin Control Register on page 335.

The Analog Comparator compares the analog voltage on an input pin to a reference voltage and generates an output
that indicates the result of the comparison. The reference voltage can be derived either from an external pin or from the
internal Digital Analog Converter.

The Analog Comparator compares the analog voltage on an input pin to a reference voltage and generates an output
that indicates the result of the comparison. The reference voltage is derived either from an external source, on the
CMP_VREFx input, or from the internal DAC, as configured by the COMPARATOR x THRESHOLD INPUT SELECT bit
in the Comparator Control register.
The GPIO that shares a pin with the CMP_VOUT signal can be used to generate an interrupt to the EC when the pin
multiplexer is configured for CMP_VOUT. The GPIO Pin Control Register is configured for the desired interrupt behavior
(level or edge). Changes in the CMP_VOUT output signal will be reflected in the Interrupt Status register field for the
GPIO, as configured in the GPIO Pin Control Register.
The control bits for Comparator 0 can be locked. The COMPARATOR 0 THRESHOLD INPUT SELECT and COMPARATOR 0 ENABLE bits are locked if the LOCK bit for Comparator 0 is set. Once the LOCK bit is set, neither COMPARATOR 0 THRESHOLD INPUT SELECT or COMPARATOR 0 ENABLE can be modified until the device is power cycled.
40.11 Comparator Registers
Control and status for both comparators are located in one register in the EC Subsystem register bank. See Section

Test Reset, low active (Note 41-1). Also referred to as MCLR#
Note:
Note 41-1
This signal has an internal pull-up.
The ICSP_MCLR input provides the Reset. Note that the reset state of the ICSP port is only local to
the port: its effect is to keep the port in an idle state and to disengage it from the rest of the system,
so that it does not affect other on-chip logic in this state.

ICSP TEST MODES
The ICSP block supports TMOD0 .
• TMOD0 supports 2-wire ICSP JTAG
TMOD0 converts 2-wire ICSP signaling (Clock and Data) to standard 4-wire JTAG signaling (TCK, TMS, TDI and TDO).
Doing this conversion has a cost of four clocks, therefore four ICSP_CLK pulses is equivalent to one JTAG clock (i.e.,
4x slowdown).

Enabling EJTAG Interface
By default the EJTAG interface is disabled. It is gated by the MTAP (MCHP_TAP) controller. MTAP gates all other TAP
controllers TDI so they always operate in BYPASS mode. There are two ISCP commands used to enable/disable the
MTAP gating.
• IR SWTAP_CHIP (5'h04).
- Enables the MTAP and gates the EJTAG interface behind it.
• IR SWTAP (5'h05).
- Disables the MTAP and enables the EJTAG interface behind it.

Drive MCLR# High.
Send down the following IR SWTAP_CHIP (5'h04).
This will enable the MTAP.
Send down the following IR MCHP_CMD (5'h07).
This puts the DR in MTAP IR: MCHP_CMD
Poll 1 byte on the DR Shift until Bit [6] of the byte is 1. Always shift in 0x00.
The 0x00 shifted in the sub-command Read Status.
This is polling until the Boot ROM has opened up access to the part (JTAG Security).
Send down the following IR SWTAP (5'h05).
Disables the MTAP and enables the EJTAG behind it.
Run EJTAG program here.

XNOR Chain
OVERVIEW
The XNOR Chain test mode provides a means to confirm that all MEC140X/1X pins are in contact with the motherboard
during assembly and test operations.
An example of an XNOR Chain test structure is illustrated below in . When the XNOR Chain test mode is enabled all
pins, except for the Excluded Pins shown in Section 38.5.2, are disconnected from their internal functions and forced
as inputs to the XNOR Chain. This allows a single input pin to toggle the XNOR Chain output if all other input pins are
held high or low. The XNOR Chain output is the Test Output Pin (XNOR_OUT): GPIO027/KSO00/PVT_IO1.
The tests that are performed when the XNOR Chain test mode is enabled require the board-level test hardware to control the device pins and observe the results at the XNOR Chain output pin; e.g., as described in Section 41.5.3, "Test
Procedure," on page 485.
41.5.2
EXCLUDED PINS
All pins in the pinout are included in the XNOR chain, except the following:
• Power Pins (VTR, VTR_33_18, VBAT, VREF_CPU)

Connect ICSP_MCLR to ground.
Connect the VSS, AVSS, VSS_VBAT pins to ground.
Connect the VTR, VTR_33_18, VBAT pins to an unpowered 3.3V power source.
Connect the VREF_CPU pin to an unpowered 1.8V power source.
Connect an oscilloscope or voltmeter to the Test Output pin.
All other pins should be tied to ground.
Note:

Testing
Turn on the 3.3V power source.
Enable the XNOR Chain as defined in Section 38.5.3.3, "Procedure to Enable the XNOR Chain".
Note:
3.
There are 107 pins in the XNOR Chain in the 128-pin package.
Note that at this point all inputs to the XNOR Chain are low, except for the ICSP_MCLR pin, and the output
on the Test Output pin is non-inverted from its initial state, which is dependent on the number of pins in the
chain. If the number of input pins in the chain is an even number, the initial state of the Test Output Pin
(XNOR_OUT): GPIO027/KSO00/PVT_IO1 is low. If the number of input pins in the chain is an odd number,
the initial state of the Test Output Pin (XNOR_OUT): GPIO027/KSO00/PVT_IO1 is high.
Bring one pin in the chain high. The output on the Test Output Pin (XNOR_OUT): GPIO027/KSO00/PVT_IO1
pin should toggle. Then individually toggle each of the remaining pins in the chain. Each time an input pin is toggled either high or low the Test Output Pin (XNOR_OUT): GPIO027/KSO00/PVT_IO1 pin should toggle.
Once the XNOR test is completed, exit the XNOR Chain Test Mode by cycling VTR power.

Maximum Ratings*
*Stresses exceeding those listed could cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at any other condition above those indicated in the operation sections of this specification
is not implied.
Note:
42.1.1
When powering this device from laboratory or system power supplies, it is important that the Absolute Maximum Ratings not be exceeded or device failure can result. Some power supplies exhibit voltage spikes on
their outputs when the AC power is switched on or off. In addition, voltage transients on the AC power line
may appear on the DC output. If this possibility exists, it is suggested that a clamp circuit be used.

FULL ON is defined as follows: The processor is not sleeping, the Core regulator and the Ring Oscillator
remain powered, and at least one block is not sleeping.
The sleep states are defined in the System Sleep Control Register in the Power, Clocks and Resets
Chapter. See Table 3-12, “System Sleep Control Bit Encoding,” on page 87.
In order to achieve the lowest leakage current when both PECI and SB TSI are not used, set the
VREF_CPU Disable bit to 1. This bit is defined in Section 34.8.5, VREF_CPU DISABLE.
All values are taken with DAC 0, Comparator 0, DAC 1, Comparator 1, ADC all disabled. See Table 42-15

Note 43-2
Without the external clock, the 48MHz clock will vary up to +/-4% which may affect the timing
parameters of certain blocks. In particular it may not be accurate enough to ensure that the UART
will work, depending on the accuracy of the clock of the external device.
Note 43-3
This time applies if the external 32KHz clock input is available or if the Internal Oscillator clock source
is enabled via the Clock Enable Register on page 444.
Note 43-4
SUSCLK is required to have an accuracy of +/- 100 ppm.
Note 43-5
The drift in frequency after frequency lock if the 32kHz clock is removed is determined by varying
temperature while voltage is held constant.

Note 43-6
Firmware can use the INT_32K_RDY status bit listed in the Section 10.0, "Jump Table Vectored

frequency.
Note 43-7
This timing assumes the oscillator was powered and reach oscillator-lock prior to entering a sleep

Note 43-12 The BC-Link Clock frequency is limited by the application usage model (see BC-Link Master
Section 31.5, Signal Description). The BC-Link Clock frequency is controlled by the BC-Link Clock
Select Register. The tc(High Speed) parameter implies both BC-link master and companion devices
are located on the same circuit board and a high speed clock setting is possible.
Note:
The timing budget equation is as follows for data from BC-Link slave to master:
Tc > TOD(master-clk) + Tprop(clk) +TOD(slave) + Tprop(slave data) + TIS(master).

the Programmable Baud Rate Generator registers. The selectable baud rates are listed in Table 172, "UART Baud Rates using Clock Source 1.8432MHz_Clk" and Table 17-3, "UART Baud Rates using
Clock Source 24MHz_Clk". Some of the baud rates have some percentage of error because the clock
does not divide evenly. This error can be determined from the values in these baud rate tables.

Note 43-16 The originator must drive a more restrictive time to allow for quantized sampling errors by a client
yet still attain the minimum time less than 500 µsec. tBIT limits apply equally to tBIT-A and tBIT-M . The
MEC140X/1X is designed to support 2 MHz, or a 500ns bit time. See the PECI 3.0 specification from
Intel Corp. for further details.
Note 43-17 The minimum and maximum bit times are relative to tBIT defined in the Timing Negotiation pulse. See
the PECI 3.0 specification from Intel Corp. for further details.
Note 43-18 “#nodes” is the number of nodes on the PECI bus; host and client nodes are counted as one each.
Extended trace lengths may appear as extra nodes. Refer also to Table 25-2, "PECI Routing
Guidelines". See the PECI 3.0 specification from Intel Corp. for further details.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
•
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
Information contained in this publication regarding device applications and the like is provided only for your convenience and may be superseded by updates. It is your responsibility to ensure that your application meets with your specifications.
